Dr. Paul Pimsleur’s Method This method developed by Dr. Paul Pimsleur involves the regular repetition of already learned material while learning new material. Another advantage of this method is its availability at any time and in any place — you can listen to the audio course on your smartphone, in the car, or at home while cooking dinner. ESL “English as a Second Language” is a speaking-based method to learn English. The difference between ESL and more other well-known methods is that you can learn about the culture and social norms of English-speaking countries — especially American English since most of the ESL-based programs teach the American version of English. The Rosetta Stone technique The Rosetta Stone technique is also recognized as one of the easiest programs to learn English from zero. It allows you to follow the same path as when learning your native language from infancy (婴儿期) — without relying on grammar rules. You can master your English by immersing (沉浸在) yourself in the language and forming associations between words and real-life context. YouTube-based learning Learning English by watching YouTube videos is one of the most affordable ways to learn English that requires minimal effort. Besides, YouTube channels specializing in learning English frequently also provide useful links to get more information on a particular subject. And you can learn English on YouTube by simply watching your favorite YouTubers — just turn on English subtitles in the settings. 1. What is one characteristic of Dr. Paul Pimsleur’s Method? A. Focusing on the regular recitation. B. Immersing learners in the language. C. Making speaking a basic practice. D. Being available anytime and anywhere. 2. Which method is the most suitable for a complete beginner? A. YouTube-based learning. B. Dr. Paul Pimsleur’s Method. C. The Rosetta Stone technique D. English as a Second Language. 3. What can you enjoy using YouTube to learn English? A. Limitless links. B. Low-cost experiences. C. Countless subjects. D. Native-like learning ways. B Progress may feel so slow at times as if you’re not really getting anywhere. Tiredness sets in. Then discouragement. That’s when you know it’s time to take a look into the past, to glance into the rear-view mirror to see just how far you’ve come. Twelve months ago, my husband John and I took on a renovation (翻新) project in a new country. The first ten days were exciting. We started a new adventure, creating something amazing for our future. Progress started rapidly, and I recalled saying, “Who said renovating was hard? This is so much fun.” Weeks turned into months, and the pace began to slow down. By six months, instead of seeing the beautiful sea view before me, I only saw bare dirt patches (补块), unpainted pillars and unfinished rooms. Guests were due to arrive, but the place looked like a construction zone. I painfully thought to myself, “Will we ever get this finished?” That’s when I decided to revisit photographs from just a few months earlier. I was amazed by the transformation we had achieved. The pillars had been painted, and the garden we created were blossoming. Those before-and-after images served as a powerful reminder that, even though our project was far from completion, we had accomplished so much we could be proud of. As the sun set that evening, we quietly celebrated our achievements. Our renovation project was not just about transforming a house; we’d been transforming our life. We were reminded that joy isn’t only to be found in final accomplishments (成就), rather, we resolved to find joy in each and every step of the project. 4. What does the author mainly want to tell us in paragraph 1? A. The reason for slow pace. B. The reason for reviewing the past. C. The reason for bad feelings. D. The reason for getting nowhere. 5. How did the author think about the progress of her renovation project at first? A. Smooth. B. Tough. C. Stuck. D. Gradual. 6. Why did the author feel amazed after revisiting her old photos? A The project had been completed. B. The reminder of deadline was seen. C. The good progress had been made. D. The transformation was discouraging. 7. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. The real source of happiness is the journey. B. Achievements should be celebrated secretly. C. Final accomplishments decide happiness. D. Transforming life is the only meaningful thing. C In the spring of 2020, residents of Kunming, a lively city in China, saw a rare sight: a group of wild elephants walking through its streets. These gentle giants, who had traveled over 500 kilometers from their home in Xishuangbanna, became unexpected visitors to the urban area. This unusual event attracted worldwide attention and reminded people of the need to live with nature. The journey of the “Kunming Elephants” has highlighted the serious problem faced by Asian elephants. With fewer than 50, 000 individuals left in 13 Asian countries, these endangered animals are struggling to survive as forests shrink. Unlike African elephants, which are threatened by illegal hunting, Asian elephants mainly suffer from habitat loss. In Yunnan Province alone, suitable elephant habitats have decreased by 40% in the past 20 years, forcing herds to travel long distances in search of food. To solve this problem, creative solutions are needed. China’s “Elephant-Friendly Highway” project in Xishuangbanna is a good example. By building “elephant bridges” with sensors and warning systems, engineers have created safe paths for animals to cross roads and reconnect with their habitats. Similarly, in Assam, India, a program called “Community Forest Management” empowers local villagers to restore damaged forests, providing jobs while protecting elephant homes. Living with nature requires a shift in mindset: from domination to coexistence. In Thailand’s “Elephant Reintroduction Program,” rescued elephants live alongside farmers in shared forests. Trainers use gentle methods (like rewarding good behavior) to teach elephants to stay away from crops, reducing conflicts and crop losses for farmers. As herds grow closer to cities, Kunming has developed a tracking system using drones and computer technology to guide elephants away from danger. Two thousand years ago, a Chinese philosopher wrote: “Heaven and Earth are one.” Today, as cities expand into natural habitats, we must remember this wisdom. The story of the Kunming elephants offers a chance to build a world where modern cities coexist with ancient forests — where tall buildings stand beside green spaces, and human progress harmonizes with the wonders of nature. This is not just a dream — it is our responsibility to future generations, both human and animal. 8. What do the underlined words “the serious problem” refer to in paragraph 2? A. Illegal hunting. B. Climate change. C Water shortage. D. Habitat reduction. 9. What does the author want to tell us with two examples in paragraph 3? A. The importance of new technology. B. The differences in protecting elephants. C. The need of innovatively solving problems. D. The purpose of building “elephant bridges”. 10. Which of the following reflects the idea “Heaven and Earth are one”? A. Building modern cities in the wild. B. Constructing while protecting nature. C. Reconnecting habitats desperately. D. Expanding cities into natural habitats. 11. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To call for human-nature harmony. B. To compare different protection methods. C. To criticize destroying animal habitats. D. To explain why Asian elephants travelled. D The idea that too much screen time and digital dependence might harm our cognitive abilities — often called “digital dementia (痴呆)” — has been debated since psychiatrist Manfred Spitzer coined the term in 2012. Critics argue that outsourcing memory (like relying on smartphones for contact details) and passive media consumption, such as endless scrolling, could weaken mental sharpness. But is this really true, especially for older adults who have witnessed the digital revolution firsthand? A major 2024 study published in Nature Human Behaviour analyzed data from over 411,000 adults aged 50 and above. Surprisingly, it found that regular use of computers, smartphones, and the Internet was associated with a 58% lower risk of cognitive decline — a stronger protective effect than even physical exercise or maintaining healthy blood pressure. This doesn’t mean technology directly prevents dementia, but it suggests that staying digitally engaged may help keep the brain active. Learning new apps, resolving tech issues, and even online socializing could function like mental workouts, strengthening cognitive resilience (恢复力). In fact, technology aids instead of harming because it offers men tal stimulation, enhances social connection, and boosts independence via problem-solving.’ While this study is a relief, not all tech use is equal in its effects. Passive activities, like binge watching TV, may not offer the same benefits as interactive tasks, such as video calls or online learning. Additionally, too much screen time in younger people has been linked to attention problems and poor sleep — which could have long-term effects. As AI and brain-computer interfaces advance, older adults may gain even more tools to support cognition, from memory aids to virtual social companions. However, balance remains key. The best approach? Use technology actively — learn, connect, and problem-solve — rather than just consume. For now, older adults shouldn’t fear “digital dementia.” Instead, thoughtful tech use might be one of the best ways to keep their minds sharp in the digital age. 12. What does the 2024 study reveal about “digital dementia” compared with the popular idea? A. It draws a contrary conclusion. B. It agrees with Manfred Spitzer’ theory. C. It only occurs in older adults. D. It equals the effect of physical workouts. 13. Why can active digital use reduce the risk of cognitive decline? A. It can prolong our life. B. It can activate our brain. C. It can solve tricky issues. D. It can enhance our ability. 14. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. Reliability of the new study. B. Negative effects on the young. C. Downsides of passive tech use. D. Contrast between two tech uses. 15. What does the author suggest the elderly do in the last two paragraphs? A. Relieve their fear quickly. B. Get more tools to sharpen cognition. C. Consume technology simply. D. Make considered use of modern tech. 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How To Develop Critical Thinking Skills Critical thinking skills enable you to analyze information and process it rationally (理性地) to help you determine the value of that information or make a decision. ____16____ Nevertheless, anyone can develop and improve them.

Question your assumptions, too. C. Their thoughts may be in line with yours. D. Assumptions should also become your priority. E. Critical thinking skills don’t come easily to some people. F.

Mommy!” Lily called out, skipping into the kitchen with her pigtails (马尾辫) bouncing and a flush of excitement reddening her cheeks. “Guess what! Mr. Carter, my teacher, started a ‘Kindness Garden’ on the bullet in board. Every time someone does something kind or helpful, they get to add a flower with their name on it!” “That sounds wonderful,” Mommy said, wiping her hands on a towel. “Did you do something kind today?” Lily’s smile faded slightly. “No, but Emma did. She helped clean up the art supplies after class. I really wish I could do something kind tomorrow!” The next day at school, Jake earned a flower for sharing his crayons, and Sophia got one for comforting a classmate who was upset. But Lily didn’t receive a flower. The following morning didn’t start well either. Lily accidentally knocked over her juice at breakfast, and it spilled all over the table. “I’ll never get a flower like this,” she thought with a sigh. Later that afternoon, Mr. Carter handed back the science quizzes (测验) from the day before. “Class, only one person got every question right. Great job, Lily! Come and pick out a flower for the Kindness Garden.” Lily’s heart leapt. “Yay!” she cheered, beaming (眉开眼笑) as she taped her flower onto the board. After school, she raced home, holding her quiz tightly in her hand. “Mommy! Mommy! Look what I got!” she shouted excitedly, waving the paper proudly. Mommy also felt happy and praised her. That night, as Lily stared at her perfect score again, her eyes suddenly caught a tiny mistake. One of her answers was wrong, but Mr. Carter had marked it correct. Her heart flinched with guilt and confusion. “Oh no… Mommy, look! I didn’t actually get everything right!” Mommy sat beside her and said gently, “Well, sweetheart, it seems you have a choice to make.” “But I don’t want to lose my flower!” Lily whispered, her lower lip trembling. “You know what’s right, Lily,” Mommy said, hugging her. “And I believe you’ll choose wisely.” 注意： 1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 The next morning, Lily dragged her feet to school, her heart heavy. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ At the end of the day, Mr. Carter announced it to the class. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 驻马店市2024~2025学年度第二学期期末质量监测 高二英语试题 本试题卷分为第Ⅰ卷(选择题)和第Ⅱ卷(非选择题)两部分。考生作答时，将答案答在答题卡上，在本试题卷上答题无效。考试结束后，监考老师只收答题卡。 注意事项： 1.答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写(涂)在答题卡上。考生要认真核对答题卡上粘贴的条形码的“准考证号、姓名”与考生本人准考证号、姓名是否一致。 2.第Ⅰ卷每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑，如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。第Ⅱ卷用黑色墨水签字笔在答题卡上书写作答，在试题上作答，答案无效。 3.考试结束，监考教师将答题卡收回。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节(共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

The event featured traditional Chinese performances, including calligraphy, folk dances, and Peking Opera highlights. British students also shared their customs through music and interactive games. Both sides enjoyed a lively discussion about school life in each other’s countries. Such activities broaden our horizons and promote cultural appreciation. We look forward to more opportunities to connect with friends worldwide! 第二节(满分25分) 【47题答案】 【答案】 The next morning, Lily dragged her feet to school, her heart heavy. She remembered those names in the Kindness Garden, and how much she wished that her name would remain there, but Mommy’s words echoed in her mind. When she arrived, she stared at her flower on the board for a long time. Then, she resolutely and determinedly reached up and took it down, walked to Mr. Carter’s desk, and pointed out the mistake. Mr. Carter’s eyes widened, then softened with pride. He praised her honesty and courage and immediately made a special decision. At the end of the day, Mr. Carter announced it to the class. “Boys and girls, Lily has earned a special golden flower today.” All the classmates felt very surprised and asked why. “Because she did something even more important than a perfect score. She found a mistake I missed on her science quiz. Instead of keeping it hidden, she chose to be honest. That’s true kindness to others and herself — and it deserves the highest recognition!” The class erupted in cheers, and Lily’s heart swelled with warmth. As she smiled, she heard Mommy’s voice in her mind again: “You’ll choose wisely.” And she had. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
