I’m so excited about our upcoming online lesson to introduce “Traditional Sports Events of both countries”. On behalf of our club, I’m writing to propose some ideas and confirm related details about it. The lesson will serve as a channel for students to realize that traditional sports are not only the essence of a culture, but also the pride of a country. So for our part, we are considering introducing several traditional sports activities, including martial arts, dragon boat races, horse races, dragon dances and lion dances and so on. To get the best effect, some forms such as presentations, playing videos and displaying pictures will be adopted. As for the time and the way, we’d like to have the lesson scheduled on a day next week, lasting 3 hours through an online conference application. Does our proposal work well on your side? Looking forward to your earliest reply. Yours, Li Hua 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。校体育俱乐部计划与英国某校体育俱乐部通过网上交流会议应用程序(online conference application)共同上一节介绍“Traditional sports events of both countries”的课。要求考生代表俱乐部发封邮件给对方成员 Bruce。 【详解】 1.词汇积累 代表：on behalf of→represent 提出：propose→put forward 激动的：excited→thrilled 担任：serve as→work as 2.句式拓展 简单句变复合句 原句：As for the time and the way, we’d like to have the lesson scheduled on a day next week, lasting 3 hours through an online conference application. 拓展句：As for the time and the way, we’d like to have the lesson scheduled on a day next week, which will last 3 hours through an online conference application. 【点睛】[高分句型1] To get the best effect, some forms such as presentations, playing videos and displaying pictures will be adopted.

The tension in the classroom was evident as we stood on opposite sides of the teacher's desk, both convinced of our own perception. I even looked at him defiantly, sneering. In contrast, Kevin seemed unaffected by my aggressive expression, his confidence was anything but shaken. The class watched us with interest as we argued, occasionally bursting into laughter. Mrs. Becker quieted the unrest, then telling me to go where Kevin was standing and Kevin to stand in my previous place. Then, Mrs. Becker asked us what the color of the object was, after we changed places. Mrs. Becker's patient gaze bore into us, waiting for our response. Not until then did both of us realize that it was an object with two differently colored sides. From Kevin's viewpoint, it was white while from mine it was black. Reflecting on the argument, I regretted deeply for being mean. Making sincere apologies to each other, we came to terms. It dawned on me that the essence of friendship is a profound connection on the basis of mutual compassion and understanding. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了在小学时期，“我”与朋友 Kevin之间的友谊与争执。作为荣誉生，我们坐在教室前排，他是“我”认识的最聪明的男孩。一次关于分割比萨饼的讨论引发了争执，最终演变成对物体颜色的争论。我们在老师的引导下意识到了彼此看问题的不同，最终通过真诚的道歉达成了和解，意识到友谊的本质在于相互的同情和理解。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我们之间又开始争论，但这次是关于物体的颜色。”可知，第一段可描写作者与Kevin争论颜色的经过。 ②由第二段首句内容“后来，我们换了位置，贝克尔夫人问我们物体的颜色是什么。”可知，第二段可描写作者发现换了位置后颜色不同，意识到为当初的争论而后悔的故事。 2.续写线索：站在桌子两边——争论——自信——互换位置——发现颜色不同——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①相信：be convinced of/believe ②交换地点：change places/switch places ③意识到：realize/be aware of 情绪类 ①遗憾：be regretted for/be sorry for ②真诚的：sincere/genuine 【点睛】[高分句型1]The tension in the classroom was evident as we stood on opposite sides of the teacher's desk, both convinced of our own perception.（由连词as引导的时间状语从句） [高分句型2]Mrs. Becker quieted the unrest, then telling me to go where Kevin was standing and Kevin to stand in my previous place.（由连接词where引导的宾语从句） [高分句型3] It dawned on me that the essence of friendship is a profound connection on the basis of mutual compassion and understanding.（由连接词that引导的主语从句） 附：听力原文 1． 【原文】M: OK, I have finally finished my work. Before we leave, I want to know whether you’ll be working at the office or from home next week. W: Well, I prefer working from home.

W: May I work in the kitchen? I prefer doing food preparation. M: Sure, then see you tomorrow. 3． 【原文】M: I need to return these shoes. They’re very uncomfortable. Here is the receipt.

I eat out five times a week. 5． 【原文】M: What did you do after high school? W: I played in a band for a while. We played for dances around the country. M: Then what did you do?

I’m going to visit my friend in Canada first and stay there for a month. My uncle lives in Singapore. And I’ll go there and spend the rest of the time traveling. M: You must be excited about this vacation. W: Yes. I’ve expected it for a long time. M: Compared with yours, my plan sounds a bit boring. I will stay at home and meet my old classmates. W: That’s not bad. 8~9 【原文】W: Stephen, I’m struggling to find a topic for our presentation on Chinese traditional culture. There are so many great options. M: I see. What about the Spring Festival? It was just added to UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage List. It’s been making headlines recently. W: Oh, that’s a fantastic idea! We can cover its history, customs, and modern celebrations. It’s such a big part of our culture, just like a gold mine of information. M: Sounds good. We can also include some personal stories and photos to make it more engaging. It’ll be fun to work on it. W: Perfect! This will definitely make our presentation stand out! 10~12 【原文】W: And here, ladies and gentlemen, we have the famous artwork — David, by Michelangelo. When it was originally made in 1504, it stood outside. But over a century ago, it was brought here inside the Galleria dell’Accademia. M: Oh wow. I’ve seen pictures of it, but I didn’t realize it was this big. It’s huge. W: Yes, a lot of visitors say that when I show it to them. M: Look at all the details, his arms, his legs…They are amazing. W: Yes, but also look at the hands — especially the right hand. Do you notice anything? M: They are big. W: Yes, well done. They are actually bigger than they should be because the artist wanted to show David’s power through it. 13~16 【原文】M: Honey, what’s all our stuff doing in the yard? W: It’s a clean-up sale. For only $19.95, we can put a two-line ad in Newsday for seven days. And with over two million readers, we’ll get results fast. M: But if Newsday is having a clean-up sale, why does our yard look like a market? W: Because there’s never been a better time for us to turn the things we don’t use into cash we can use. M: You mean the jewelry, furniture and exercise equipment? W: Even your old guitar. M: Two lines, seven days, for only $19.95. Are you sure? W: Of course I’m sure. I called Bob. M: Who’s Bob? W: He’s a sales consultant there. He was really nice and helpful. He told me to call him whenever I had a problem with the ad. M: More than 50% off, and friendly service. Newsday does have all we need. W: Yeah. So could you help me with the ad if you’re free? M: OK. 17~20 【原文】M: Hello, everyone. I’m reporting live from Bradley Beach. The surfing competition this July has just come to an end. The competition went well, both because of the weather and the support of the community. I was able to interview a few of the surfers about the competition and they were happy to talk to me. Kenneth, who was the winner of last year’s competition, said that he was proud of his work this year even though he only got third place. The competition’s winner, Ryan, came all the way from America to compete. Ryan only spoke about how close the competition was. He thanked his friend and the second place winner, Jamie, for giving him a good challenge. All three surfers will return to compete for the national competition in June next year, and then again in December. If anyone is still interested in meeting these talented people, you should hurry down to Bradley Beach where they’ll be meeting fans this evening. 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 河南省信阳高级中学新校（贤岭校区） 2025-2026学年高二上期开学测试 英语试题 考生注意： 1.答题前，请务必将自己的姓名、准考证号用黑色字迹的签字笔或钢笔分别填写在试题卷和答题纸规定的位置上。 2．答题时，请按照答题纸上“注意事项”的要求，在答题纸相应的位置上规范作答，在本试题卷上的作答一律无效。 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纸上。 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。 例：How much is the shirt?

B Our first introduction occurred while I was teaching a nursing course at the care center. “You need to meet our new resident, Ruby!” the charge nurse said. I simply said hello to the eighty-nine-year-old lady, and five years later we are what Ruby refers to as BFFs (Best Friends Forever).   Over the years, I have realized that in an intergenerational friendship such as ours, each generation has so much to learn and teach each other. Ruby was also a nurse. I loved to hear about her nursing practice, and she was always eager to hear about today’s advances in healthcare.   One day, I picked up all four of my grandchildren to visit Ruby. The next intergenerational friendships were born. Over the next few years, I witnessed the happiness that the children and Ruby shared. They developed a mutual love for each other that I wished we could recreate for other elderly people. This thought stayed with me until I retired from nursing a few years later.   I spent the next eight months creating Ms. Ruby and the Gigi Squad: Friendship Comes in All Ages. This labor-of-love book records the many fun events the children created for Ruby over the years. They held surprise birthday parties, tea parties, and took her to school musicals.   This book has taken my life by storm as it has received diverse awards and brought many opportunities to publicly speak about intergenerational friendships.   My vision for the book was originally on a smaller scale and written to encourage families with children to visit an older adult. I was in awe when entire schools began approaching me to use the book for service projects. One activity that I included in the book, titled The Sunshine Bag Project, took off, and children began giving the elderly these special bags that included letters, cards, and small treasures.   It was also a joy to know that in the next chapter of life, I could continue to make a difference to others — all because I had the courage to step out of my comfort zone and take a wonderful step toward authorship. 24．What has the author learned from her relationship with Ruby? A．Older adults are lonely and in need of care. B．Nurses are more likely to develop friendships. C．Advanced healthcare can bridge generation gaps. D．Friendships serve as a source of learning across ages. 25．What is the main theme of the author’s book? A．The joy of intergenerational friendships. B．The benefits of friendships. C．The importance of providing healthcare. D．The creation of fun events. 26．How did the book impact on society? A．Schools promoted children’ s reading. B．Children started befriending the elderly. C．More authors wrote stories about elders. D．Service projects gained great popularity. 27．What is the significance of the book for the author? A．It provided her with financial stability. B．It helped her reconnect with old friends. C．It enabled her to contribute to others’ lives. D．It made her childhood dream come true. C Animals can express their needs using a lot of ways. For instance, almost all animals have distinct vocals (声音) that they rely on to either ask for help,  scare away any dangerous animals or look for shelter. But cats are special creatures who possess amazing vocalization skills. They are able to have entire conversations with humans using meows and you're able to interpret it. If a pet cat is hungry, it will keep meowing to attract attention and find food. However, when a cat is looking for affection, they tend to produce stretched and soft meows. Meowing starts as soon as a baby cat is brought to life and uses it to get the mother's attention and be fed. Cats have many heightened senses, but their sense of smell is quite impressive. They use their noses to assess their environment and look out for any signs of danger. They will sniff out specific areas before they choose a place to relax. However, another way the cats are able to distinguish between situations is by looking for familiar smells. Your cat will likely smell your face and store the smell in its memory and use it to recognize you in the future. That's why most pet cats are able to tell immediately if their owners were around any other cats, which they don't usually like. Dogs are known for their impressive fetching habit, but cats take this behavior up a notch. Many cats will find random objects outside and bring them to their owners. This is a very old habit that's been present in all kinds of predators (食肉动物). Cats bring gifts for their owners to show they love you. These adorable little hunters are just doing something that it's been in their nature since the beginning of time. So just go along with it! 28．What can be learned about cats' meowing from the first paragraph? A．It's a survival skill. B．It's taught by mother cats. C．It's hard to interpret. D．It's getting louder with age. 29．How does a pet cat assess different situations? A．By listening for sounds. B．By touching familiar objects. C．By checking on smells. D．By communicating with other cats. 30．Which best explains the phrase "take. . . up notch" in paragraph 3? A．Perform appropriately. B．Move faster. C．Act strangely. D．Do better. 31．What is a suitable title for the text? A．Tips on Finding a Smart Cat B．Understanding Your Cat's Behavior C．Have Fun with Your Cat D．How to Keep Your Cat Healthy D Do you know that the oldest tree is a 5, 000-year old bristlecone pine (狐尾松) located in the forests of Nevada? Unfortunately, many of these precious old-growth trees are starting to disappear from our planet. The term old-growth refers to trees that are 150 years or older. This means that many of the trees on the Earth today are younger, smaller, and have shorter lifespans. As the Earth’s temperature warms up due to climate change, it is having unintended effects on the world’s forests. When temperatures rise, trees close their pores (气孔) to prevent the loss of moisture, and this, in turn, slows down the process of photosynthesis (光合作用). As a result, these trees are shorter and grow slowly, as well as have a high deathrate. Climate change also increases the possibility of droughts and wildfires. After wildfires, it takes a while for the forest ecosystems to recover, and in some cases, the forests are lost permanently. Trees that are stressed are also susceptible (易受影响的) to attacks by bacteria (细菌). Finally, humans have changed the forest landscape through logging (伐木). There are some who claim that increased greenhouse gas emission is helping trees grow faster because CO2, is needed for photosynthesis. While some younger trees may benefit from this, we are seeing significantly more loss of forests than gain. Old-growth forests are a storehouse of carbon, and when they die, the stored CO2, is released into the air worsening the greenhouse effect. Older forests have higher biodiversity, which is beneficial as each organism has a role to play and there is a wide variety of species. As these forests disappear, species that once called them “home” are forced to relocate, affecting the biodiversity of those ecosystems. Unfortunately, some endangered species are unable to adapt and go extinct. With trees dying continuously, will future generations miss out on the wonders of forests? 32．What is the main idea of the second paragraph? A．Why bacteria may attack old trees. B．What leads to the rising temperatures. C．Why old-growth forests are disappearing. D．How global warming causes natural disasters. 33．What does the underlined word “them” in paragraph 4 refer to? A．Species. B．Older forests. C．Organisms. D．Roles organisms play. 34．The last sentence of the text is actually____________. A．a doubt B．a warning C．a blame D．a suggestion 35．What is the author’s purpose of writing this text? A．To urge people to reduce gas emission. B．To explain the greenhouse effect on trees. C．To introduce the process of photosynthesis. D．To call on people to protect old-growth trees. 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 What Friendship Means to Me When deciding what is most important in life, some people choose money, while others choose things like security and comfort. 36 I cannot imagine being without it. Friendship means not being alone. Once I was travelling for sightseeing by myself. I didn't mind being alone, but when I saw all of the tourists having their pictures taken together. I began feeling sad. I ended up returning to the train station and spending the rest of the day in the waiting room. 37 Friendship means having someone to rely on. Last year, I left my schoolbag on a trolleybus, and I lost all of my notes for the final exam. 38 Luckily for me, my best friend Jenny let me copy her notes, and I used them in my revision. Thanks to her help, I was able to pass the exam. Friendship means being committed to others. 39 Because I am a friend, I have had to learn patience and mercy (宽恕). Once I had a quarrel with Jenny, and she made some cruel comments about me. Even though I was hurt, I forgave her and she later made an apology. Through this incident, both of us have become better people.   Friendship means a lot to me in a word. 40 And it makes my life more meaningful and enjoyable.

Before modern medicine emerged, ancient Chinese used stone tools 56 (relieve) pain. Over time, this primitive practice gradually evolved into a comprehensive and profound medical system.

In other words, the needles work by repairing damages to the infrastructure of our bodies, to ensure that the life force energy of “qi” can flow 59 (smooth). Over the years, acupuncture has been used to treat a wide 60 (vary) of health problems, including severe pains, blood pressure issues, stomach discomfort, sports injuries and weight problems. 61 addition, acupuncturists have discovered that the treatment helps with mental problems like depression and anxiety too.

As honor students, both of us sat in the front of the class, but in opposite sides. He was the smartest boy I’d ever known, who almost always got straight A’s in study. Actually, I was second only to him. Part of me wanted to hate him, but I couldn’t. After all, we were close companions. Instead, I envied him and longed with all my heart to be just like him. Mrs. Becker, our teacher, was a patient, kind old lady. She would flash a pleasant smile, when the class got into an argument, and patiently guide us toward the correct answer. Last week, Mrs. Becker, put a big circle on the blackboard and said it was a pizza pie. “David,” she said to me, “If I were to divide the pizza, would you like one-third or one-tenth?”. Ten is the bigger number, so that’s what I picked. At that moment, Kevin started waving his hand in the air, shouting that he chose one-third. Mrs. Becker drew lines on the circle, showing that Kevin’s piece of the pie was bigger than mine. “David’s gonna get hungry,” Kevin joked. Then the whole class was laughing. My expression changed from a half smile, to a half frown, to one hundred percent unhappy face. With a mixture of bitterness and envy slipping into my heart, I began to argue with him on purpose during the rest of class. Thus, a heated argument unavoidably broke out when a controversial topic appeared. After hearing our separate statements patiently, Mrs. Becker brought us up to the front of the class and placed Kevin on one side of her desk and me on the other. In the middle of her desk was a large, round object. I could clearly see that it was black. She asked Kevin what color the object was. “White,” he answered. I couldn’t believe he said the object was white, when it was obviously black! 1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Another argument started between us, but this time about the color of the object. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Then, Mrs. Becker asked us what the color of the object was, after we changed places. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$听力考试正式开始。Okay, I have finally finished my work before we leave.
