B I still remember the days when I was a youthful student in an engineering school. I lived a casual life, without caring about the future. I smoked, drank with friends and made girl friends.Little did I realize that casualness would certainly lead to loss. Two years had passed and I was staring down a report card that highlighted(使......突出)FAI Lin more than half the subjects. I didn't care, at least not till my dad found out about it. You see,I studied in India and unlike the United States where the students are expected to finance their own education, my dad financed me. Then came the day when my dad found out my habit of smoking. He got very angry but he just told me, “Son, your allowance is cut in half from this moment on.” It hit me like a roundhouse kick from Bruce Lee. I was jolted(震摇) of my bones! I didn't know how to pay off the debts that Ihad accumulated in college. I owed everybody money: the grocery store, the bars, the restaurants,my friends, etc. I was living a life filled with credit. When I went back to college, I knew that if I don't change the way I live my life I won't be able to pay everybody off. So I decided to make some changes, big changes. I quit smoking, cut off from my friends who led me down the wrong road, starting hanging out in libraries and reading my engineering books. One year later, I went from a miserable failure to a magna cum laude(优等成绩). Life was never the same again. This incident made me know that anything is possible if you take action and do something about it, however small or large. Even today it still motivates me when I feel that I'm about to lose or give up. It reminds me that I can do it! 56. The author wrote this text with the purpose of .

Students were encouraged to do part-time jobs in Indian schools. C In the spring of 2012, Premont Independent School District in Premont, Texas, was in trouble.The state had threatened to shut it down for financial problems and academic failures. To cut costs,the district had moved the middle school to the high school building; the elementary school hadn't had a music teacher in years; and the high school had sealed off the science labs. Yet they still had football, basketball, volleyball, track, tennis, cheerleading, and baseball teams. So superintendent(监管人) Emest Singleton made a big decision: He canceled sports. By canceling sports, the district could save $150,000 in one year. In many schools, sports are so popular that no one realizes their actual cost. New bleachers(露天着台) can cost half a million dollars. Maintaining a grass field can cost more than $20,000 a year.Schools also need to pay for various costs for the team, the band, and the cheerleaders. For home games, schools often pay for security, painting the lines on the field, and cleaning up. Distraction, however, may be the greatest cost of all. During football season in particular,focus shifts away from learning. Players spend long hours practicing to late-night. Fall of 2012 at Premont was extremely quiet. There were no Friday night games to look forward to, no cheerleaders making posters in the hallway. But this quiet had an advantage. That first semester,80 percent of students passed their classes,compared with 50 percent the previous fall. About 160 people attended parent-teacher night,compared with six the year before. Today, Premont has no debt, and the district will stay open. The science labs have even been repaired. This past spring, Premont brought back baseball, track, and tennis, but in a limited way. The district has a lot of work to do before its students can feel the kind of pride in their academics that they once felt in their sports teams. But students have proved their ability to adapt. Will more schools follow Premont's lead? They should. 61. According to Paragraph 1, Premont Independent School District . A. valued music and science B. had to cut costs to stay open C. paid little attention to sports D. had good high school graduation rates 62. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3? A. Sports cost schools a lot of money. B. Sports are very popular in America. C. American schools think highly of sports. D. Schools should try to cover the cost of sports. 63. What' can we learn from Paragraph 4? A. Many students love playing football. B. Sports help students increase their focus. C. It takes students little effort to play football. D. Sports distract students' attention from learning. 64. After sports were canceled in Premont, . A. a lot of money was saved B. many other schools canceled sports C. half of the students passed their exams D. students found it hard to adapt to the new system 65. What is the author's attitude toward Premont's action of canceling sports? A. Curious. B. Doubtful. C. Supportive: D. Disapproving. D Many people confuse hard-working people with workaholics(工作狂). What are some characteristics of workaholics? How could a person tell that he/ she is a workaholic? A workaholic works long hours, at the expense of personal relationships and health. When not working, they' re thinking about work. Work influences their mood: When work is going well, they' re up; when work is going less well, they' re down. Working, or simply being busy, can be a hard habit to break. When workaholics aren't busy working— or doing something to promote their work —— they feel anxious and guilty. There is a link between health problems and workaholism. Just because work itself is a respectable pursuit(追求) doesn't mean that an addiction to it is any less damaging than other sorts of addictions. A number of studies show that workaholism has been associated with a wide range of health problems, such as anxiety and heart disease Besides health problems, being a workaholic brings other negative effects as well. A study found that working too much negatively influenced an employee's marriage. This isn't surprising,since if you' re married to your work it can be difficult to be married to anything, or anyone, else.There have also been studies looking at the influence of workaholic parents on their children and the news isn't good. Adult children of workaholic fathers experienced more depression and anxiety and a weaker sense of self. However, there are also many positive aspects to working hard and to an increasing devotion to career. Hard work can bring great rewards. For many, it's how they develop feelings of self worth and confidence and purpose. If you have a workaholic in your life you might point out the things he or she is missing out on while at work, whether it's a child's soccer game,a good book, or a yoga class. Seek to understand why the person feels the need to work so much and support them in finding a resolution. 66. What can we learn from the text? A. Work has stronger effects on workaholics than on others. B. Hard-working people enjoy bester health than other people do. C. Workaholics work to build better relationships. D. Workaholics care more about their hdalth than others do. 67. When workaholics are not busy working, they . A. promote their work B. form a bad habit easily C. feel uneasy and insecure D. have a chance to prove their own value 68. What are Paragraphs 3 and 4 mainly about? A. Bad influences of workaholism. B. Different patterns of workaholics. C. How people deal with their addictions. D. How hard-working people differ from workaholics. 69. What is the author's attitude towards working hard? A. Doubtful. B. Objective. C. Negative. D. Curious. 70. What can we do to help a workaholic in life? A. Force him to join family activities. B.. Reward him for his hard work. C. Help him find self worth and confidence. D. Try to be understanding and supporting. V.阅读表达(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) I remember him on his first day in the sixth grade. He was the only black face in a sea of white.A few days later, he had yet to connect with anyone. Our teacher asked me to talk to him. So I went over to him and said, “Hi.” He replied, “Hi.” And that was it for day one. The next day, “What's up?”“Not much.” We added a word or two each day until full sentences were formed, and then a paragraph. Soon we became good friends and our friendship survived new friendships and small arguments. One day, with nothing better to do, we played jokes on each other. When it was my turn,I expressed criticism of his choice of clothing. He was laughing as hard as I was. Strangely enough,I remember so much about that day except in what context(语境) the N-word (rude word for a black person) was used. My purposes were not to wound him obviously. He· was my best friend.But the look on his face told me otherwise. It was a few days before we spoke again. Although we insisted we'd be friends forever,I never saw him after high school. It may not have had anything to do with what I said, or it may have had everything. By that point, we weren't intimate enough for me to ask any more. Several days ago, there was a near race riot(暴动) during a high school basketball game, and angry teenagers shouted several rude words. These words brought back a flood of memories. All I wonder is if these kids will ever feel as bad as I did for using such a rude word. It's a curse(诅咒)word, but the real curse is on the person who uses it. 71. What does the first paragraph talk about?(no more than 10 words) 72. What happened to the author's friend according to Paragraph 2?(no more than 10 words) 73. What does the underlined word“intimate” in Paragraph 3 probably mean in English?(1 word) 74. What reminded the author of his unpleasant memories?(no more than 10 words) 75. What can we learn from the story between the author and his friend?(no more than 20 words) Ⅵ.书面表达(满分25分) 76.假定你是李华，最近你们班进行了一次题为“未来的人工智能”的讨论。请根据以下要点给校英语报投稿，介绍讨论结果，并谈谈你自己的看法。要点如下： *人工智能的优势； *人工智能的劣势； *你的看法。 参考词汇: 人工智能 artificial intelligence 注意： *词数不少于 100; *题目和开头已给出，不记入总词数；. *可适当加入细节，以使内容充实，行文连贯。 Artificial Intelligence(AI) in the Future Recently our class had a heated discussion about the future of artificial intelligence (AI).The results are as follows. 河东区2024~2025 学年第二学期高二期末质量检测 英语试卷答案 1.听力理解(共15小题; 1-5每小题1分, 6-15每小题1.5分, 满分20分) 1-5.

Some students are in favor that AI has some advantages over human beings on some jobs which require less creativity. For example, AI is already doing lots of online and telephone customer service jobs. And jobs like big data analysis can also be replaced by· it. Others think humans still have some qualities that AI can never acquire, including sympathy and feelings. Humans can provide true comfort to others while AI lacks real emotions. Personally speaking, AI is a kind of technology that can bring us convenience and free humans from repeated and heavy work. We can benefit a lot from its development to enjoy a better life. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
