There were only seven seconds left in the game.Mason's team,the Blazers,was winning 31-29. Mason.was guarding Edwin,the best player on the Engineers team.The crowd shouted::“4.3..2.” Edwin stopped,jumped,and shot the ball before the buzzer sounded.The ball went in! The score was now 31-31. "We will play overtime,"said Mason's teammate Joel.Mason fel:bad because he failed to stop Edwin.Edwin smiled at him,making Mason feel even worse. In overtime,both teams were nervous and made mistakes.Edwin scored twice. Now the Engineers were ahead by 4 points.But then Joel made a great three-point shot with 28 seconds left! -2025-2026学年度第一学期综合练习初二英语第3页（共8页）- Then Mason had his big moment.With 11 seconds left,he guessed where Edwin would move. He stole an important pass. Mason ran fast toward the basket,but two defenders(防守球员)came to stop him. He thought about taking the final shot himselfa chance to be a hero.But then he saw Joel,who was standing alone near the basket. Mason passed the ball to Joel. Joel caught the ball,turned,and scored just as the buzzer sounded. The Blazers won! Mason and Joel gave each other a high-five."Great pass!"Joel said. From that day,Mason learned something important:real winning is more than just the score. 24.Mason felt because he failed to stop Edwin. A.excited B.unhappy C.relaxed D.lonely 25.Before taking the final shot,Mason decided to pass the ball to Joel because A.The coach told him to pass B.Joe asked for the ball loudly C.Mason was too tired to shoot D.no defenders were around Joel 26.What lesson did Mason learn at last? A.Scoring points is the most important part of basketball. B.Winning is only about getting the highest final score. C.Being a good teammate matters more than being a hero. D.Losing a game helps a team become much stronger. C Life has its ups and downs and people sometimes feel anxious ()If the feelings of anxiety become too strong,they can make you unwell.Usually,we might see a doctor or take some medicine to feel better.But it would be helpful to have something to use at home that does not involve (medicine.So,we made a robotic cushion(抱枕)to help manage anxiety. Our team was made up of scientists from several fields.We built a few different robotic cushions,and each one offered a different calming experience,like the feeling of breathing,a heartbeat,and one of them even had colourful lights inside.We asked people to try them out and tell us which they liked the best.Most people liked the cushion that felt like it was breathing.So,we decided to work more on that one. For our final cushion,we made it bigger so it was easier to hug.We made a robotic part that could push air in and out of a balloon inside the cushion,to control the "breathing".We did this because slow breathing helps people feel calmer. Now,we wanted to see if our cushion really could help with anxiety,so we did a test.The test had to do three things:make people feel anxious,check their anxiety levels,and compare the effect of the cushion to something else. -2025-2026学年度第一学期综合练习初二英语第4页（共8页)- We made people feel anxious by having them do some difficult math problems in front of others.Afterwards,we asked them to score their anxiety levels from one to ten. To see how well the cushion worked,we put people into three groups.Group A used the breathing cushion,Group B tried meditating(),and Group C just sat quietly without anything to help with their anxiety.After 10 minutes,we asked them to score their anxiety levels again. .We found that people who hugged the breathing cushion had much less anxiety 都 than those who just sat quietly.And we saw that meditation also helped people reduce their anxiety. Meditation can be difficult because it needs attention and practice,but hugging a cushion is easy!And,you could hug the cushion while doing other things.By doing n 过 more research like this,we can find ways to help people who need different ways to feel better.What do you think?Would you like to have a breathing cushion to hug when you're worried? 27.What is the final cushion like? A.It uses air to make the sound of a heartbeat. B.It has a robotic part to make it "breathe". C.It comes in all shapes and sizes. D.It has colourful lights inside. 28.What do we know abut the test from Paragraphs 5 and 6? 架、招 A.People in different groups liked different kinds of cushions. B.The researchers had people use the cushion during a meditation. C.The result showed the cushion helped people solve math problems. D.The test compared the effects of hugging the cushion and sitting quietly. 29.What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage? A.To show how to use a robotic cushion. 毅 B.To introduce a product that helps with anxiety C.To warm people about the dangers of being worried. D.To compare ways of helping people feel less anxious D Have you ever had the following experiences?You are trying to focus on your homework while chatting with your friend online at the same time;or maybe you are attending a lecture while also reading a book that you have brought along...If the answer is YES,well,you are "multitasking".Multitasking means dealing with more 鑫 than one task at the same time or switching (between tasks quickly.While it seems like an efficient(效率高的)way to get more things done in less time,.studies suggest our brains might not be as good at multitasking as we think. Firstly,multitasking can make us less focused and lower the quality (of our work.When multitasking,our attention gets split.This means we might make more -2025-2026学年度第一学期综合练习初二英语第5页（共8页）- mistakes and not do our jobs very well.For example,studying while chatting online can make it harder to understand or remember what you're learning;meanwhile,you probably won't be able to fully enjoy that pleasant conversation either. Besides,we tend to work less efficiently when multitasking.Studies have shown that it takes our brains more time to switch between tasks,which contradicts the belief that multitasking saves time.Experts call it"task switch costs".We meet "task switch costs"because of the increased mental demand as our mind jumps from one thing to another. Lastly,multitasking may hurt people's health,both physically and mentally.For teenagers,their brains are busy forming important neural (connections. Splitting attention too often might have a serious,long-term,negative influence on how these connections form.Moreover,it could lead to anxiety and a feeling of being constantly behind. However,does it mean we should never ever try multitasking?The good news is, some forms of multitasking are easier to realize than others,and here are some suggestions on how to choose the right tasks for multitasking: Try pairing up complex (difficult thus needs full attention and effort)and automatic (done without thinking)tasks:For example,you can think about a to-do list (complex)while jogging outdoors (automatic),for the latter doesn't need much mental power. It's also a good idea to rank (tasks based on levels of importance first. Don't choose very important ones to multitask;instead,try those that don't need so much attention.Save your focused attention for tasks that matter most. Knowing your limits is also necessary.People are different,so you should know your own mental and physical limits when multitasking.If you find the quality of your work drops or feel too nervous.you probably should stop multitasking. 30.Which of the following is NOT an example of multitasking? A.Preparing a meal while watching an interesting talk show online. B.Attending a meeting while doing online shopping with your phone. C.Reading a book while thinking about what the passage tries to say. D.Driving on the road while listening to soft music on the radio. 31.According to the passage,if you"contradict"something,it means A.you finally find the truth about something after careful research B.you hold the opposite opinion or believe something is wrong C.you have to accept something although you are unwilling to D.you personally dislike something because you are not interested 32.According to the passage,the writer probably agrees that A.multitasking helps the brain form important neural connections B.doing difficult and easy tasks at the same time always works well -2025-2026学年度第一学期综合练习初二英语第6页（共8页） C.important tasks need more attention and should be done first D.it's important for people to know when to stop multitasking 33.What is the main idea of the passage? A.The misunderstanding about multitasking and the reasons why. B.The meaning of multitasking and how different people should do it C.The importance of multitasking and how to choose the right tasks. D.The possible disadvantages of multitasking and the right ways to do it. 五 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。（共10分，每小题2分) Summer camps started from the US They are programs for students during the summer months in some countries.Students taking part in summer camps are known as campers.The traditional summer camp usually means sports,game-playing and campfires.Now modern summer camps can offer campers a great many activities.
