When I was a teenage boy, I helped out at my parents’ furniture store in a charming New England town. The store was known for its wide range of products. One summer holiday, I was busy assisting customers to find what they needed. I always greeted them warmly at the entrance, and customers appreciated it as excellent service. I also assisted them to carry heavy things to their cars, but my parents strictly instructed me not to accept tips or anything else. One day, an elderly lady visited the store. At first sight, I was drawn to her. She was neatly(整洁地) dressed and had a graceful presence, looking polite and friendly. She lived in a senior citizen apartment nearby and wanted to buy some chairs for her garden. After a short search, I found some chairs that met her needs. She bought two chairs and asked if I could help send them to her home just a stone’s throw away. Recognizing her old age, I agreed and carried the chairs to her building. Upon arrival, she welcomed me warmly and showed me where to place the chairs. Before I could thank her for shopping in my parents’ store, she shocked me by placing a handful of candy in my hand. Then, to my amazement, she gave me an educational book. I politely rejected it, explaining that I couldn’t accept any presents. However, she put the book in my hand and said with a smile,” If your parents don’t want you to have this, just don’t tell them. Let me tell them instead.” We both laughed, and I thanked her sincerely. I decided to follow her advice, and she told my parents that she had given me a book as a reward for my hard work. With the book, I learned a lot and started my lifelong love for reading. Reflecting on this experience, I often think of the elderly lady and hope she will live a joyful life surrounded by loved ones forever. Her generosity and humor have left a lasting impression on me. 4. What can we learn about the author from his actions at his parents’ store? A. He was rude and strict. B. He was glad to get tips. C. He was afraid to greet customers. D. He was hard-working and helpful. 5. What was the elderly lady like when the author first saw her? A. Demanding. B. Pleasant. C. Indifferent. D. Wealthy. 6. How did the author feel about the presents from the elderly lady? A. Proud and ambitious. B. Scared and desperate. C. Confused and worried. D. Grateful and surprised. 7. What can be the best title for the text? A. Unexpected Gifts B. A Strict Customer C. Lessons from a Job D. Life at a Furniture Store Going vegan or vegetarian is one way to decrease your diet’s impact on greenhouse gas emissions (排放) — but it isn’t the only way. A recent Purdue University study suggests that smaller changes can make a difference too, while improving your health. After analyzing the 2010 grocery purchases of more than 57,000 U.S. families, Purdue researchers found 71 percent could reduce their food carbon footprint by making some changes. One is to skip the unhealthy snacks. Avoiding foods with high calorie is important and low nutritional value can reduce the total carbon footprint of U.S. family food consumption by nearly 10 percent. Items like candy, soda, and packaged snacks take more ingredients and more processing, which translates to higher environmental impacts. Another effective way to reduce your carbon emissions is to avoid bulk buys. Households of one or two people may end up with food waste when they try to save money with bulk buys. Before you buy supersize, consider whether a three-pound jar of peanut butter will go bad before it’s used up. The researchers of the study also suggest consuming fewer ready-made foods. One average microwave meal may not have a very large carbon footprint. But buying them regularly can add up to high emissions because ready-made foods are sold in large quantities, which makes their carbon footprint significant, the study found. By making the above changes, the U.S. could cut more than a quarter of emissions from household food consumption, the researchers say. That’s about 36 million metric tons — about what 6.6 million households generate in a year of electricity use. “Collective action can make a huge impact,” says study co-author Hua Cai. 8. Why does the author mention being a vegetarian in Paragraph 1? A. To encourage us to become vegetarians. B. To introduce the findings of a recent study. C. To illustrate the impact of greenhouse gas emission. D. To tell readers it’s not a good way to help the environment. 9. How many methods are suggested by the study to reduce our food carbon footprint? A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five. 10 What do the underlined words “bulk buys” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Buying things in quantity. B. Buying things of low quality. C. Buying things out of date. D. Buying things of low price. 11. What might Hua Cai mean by saying “Collective action can make a huge impact”? A. We should collect some materials to make a difference. B. We should take measures quickly to make a difference. C. We should make efforts together to make a difference. D. We should avoid all unhealthy food to make a difference. How do you beat the summer heat? If you’ re like most people, you turn the air conditioning on when it’s the hottest time of the day. But what if you could use nonpeak (非高峰的) electrical hours and store the cold to use the next day? This idea has become a reality for a New York City high-rise that’s being cooled by ice. Eleven Madison, a skyscraper in the heart of Manhattan, is using cool, frozen ice overnight to cool the building, reported CBS News. Four stories below ground, an ice battery system freezes water during the night, when electrical use is low, and uses this ice to cool the building during the day. “There’s about 500,000 pounds of ice created every night,” said Holly Paeper, president of Trane Technologies, a company that did the installation (装置) . Air conditioning uses nearly 20% of energy use in homes and businesses globally. However, on extremely hot days, that number can jump to 70%. Installations like the one in Eleven Madison help to lower that. According to Paeper, the company has installed the technology in about 4,000 sites worldwide. The system in the basement of Eleven Madison uses 100 tanks that are each the size of a parking spot. Because there’s a lot of energy consumed in freezing water, a more effective way had to be found. “We take water, and add some other elements in it,” explained Dr. Patrick Shamberger, an associate professor at Texas A&M. “So we can take control of that temperature basically anywhere we want it, in the zero to 20℃ range.” While ice batteries aren’t being used to cool food or to power electrical devices, they’re being used to cool buildings. For now, combining ice batteries with other types of energy storage from renewables can help the power grid (电网) to keep up in hot weather as well as lower the cost of electricity. It’s a win-win for all. 12. What does the author want to stress in paragraph 3? A. The necessity of ice batteries. B. The popularity of the technology. C. The features of the high-rise. D. The significance of air conditioning. 13. Why were some elements added in the water? A. To make the water cleaner. B. To use the energy fully. C. To control the temperature. D. To add space occupation. 14. What can be inferred about ice batteries according to the text? A. They are cheap to install. B. They are energy-saving. C. They are extremely harmful. D. They are used to cool food. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Process of Ice Battery Production B. Power-hungry Air Conditioning C. Advantages of Storing Electricity D. A Creative System for Cooling 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。 English family names or surnames as we know today weren’t widely used until the Norman conquest (征服)of 1066.

Time and again, she asked her parents, promising to walk, feed, and look after it. Each time, though, they gave the same gentle response: “We’ll see.” One afternoon, on her way home from school, Fauna saw a little dog wandering near the park. Its fur was messy, and it looked lost, sniffing the ground as if searching for something. Feeling curious and hopeful, Fauna bent down and called to it. The dog quickly ran over, wagging (摇) its tail and gently pressing its nose into her hand, like they had known each other forever. She looked around, but no one seemed to be searching for the dog. Feeling pity for the lost dog, Fauna decided to take it home. As they walked side by side, her heart swelled with joy. It felt as though this was the pet she had always dreamed of—a friend she had been waiting for. At the front door, Fauna’s mother greeted her with a warm smile. Although she found the dog adorable, she gently reminded Fauna that they needed to try and find its owner. If the dog was lost, someone must be missing it. Fauna reluctantly (不情愿地) agreed, though part of her wished no one would come forward to claim the little dog. Over the next few days, Fauna and the dog—whom she named Buddy—grew inseparable. She fed him, played with him, and let him sleep curled up at the foot of her bed. Every day, it became harder to imagine life without him. Buddy seemed happy too, wagging his tail whenever she came home from school. But Fauna knew deep down that she had to do the right thing. She and her parents posted flyers around town, hoping to find Buddy’s owner. Just a few days later, the phone rang. Fauna’s heart sank as her father answered. From the conversation, it was clear that the caller was Buddy’s owner. He described Buddy perfectly—the friendly eyes and playful personality. Fauna knew Buddy would soon be leaving her. Her father arranged for the owner to come by and pick Buddy up. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 When the man arrived, the little dog ran straight into his arms, barking with joy. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ That evening, Fauna sat quietly in her room, feeling the emptiness that Buddy’s absence had left behind. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 南宁市第三十六中学2025-2026（上）月考试题 高二英语（考试时间120分钟，满分150分） 命题人：高二英语备课组 审题人：高二英语备课组 注意事项： 1.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、班级填写在答题卡上，贴好条形码。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用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，再选涂其它答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3.考试结束后，请将答题卡交回。 第一部 分听力（共两节，满分30分） 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 store was known for its wide range of products. One summer holiday, I was busy assisting customers to find what they needed. I always greeted them warmly at the entrance, and customers appreciated it as excellent service. I also assisted them to carry heavy things to their cars, but my parents strictly instructed me not to accept tips or anything else. One day, an elderly lady visited the store. At first sight, I was drawn to her. She was neatly(整洁地) dressed and had a graceful presence, looking polite and friendly. She lived in a senior citizen apartment nearby and wanted to buy some chairs for her garden. After a short search, I found some chairs that met her needs. She bought two chairs and asked if I could help send them to her home just a stone’s throw away. Recognizing her old age, I agreed and carried the chairs to her building. Upon arrival, she welcomed me warmly and showed me where to place the chairs. Before I could thank her for shopping in my parents’ store, she shocked me by placing a handful of candy in my hand. Then, to my amazement, she gave me an educational book. I politely rejected it, explaining that I couldn’t accept any presents. However, she put the book in my hand and said with a smile,” If your parents don’t want you to have this, just don’t tell them. Let me tell them instead.” We both laughed, and I thanked her sincerely. I decided to follow her advice, and she told my parents that she had given me a book as a reward for my hard work. With the book, I learned a lot and started my lifelong love for reading. Reflecting on this experience, I often think of the elderly lady and hope she will live a joyful life surrounded by loved ones forever.

A recent Purdue University study suggests that smaller changes can make a difference too, while improving your health. After analyzing the 2010 grocery purchases of more than 57,000 U.S. families, Purdue researchers found 71 percent could reduce their food carbon footprint by making some changes. One is to skip the unhealthy snacks. Avoiding foods with high calorie is important and low nutritional value can reduce the total carbon footprint of U.S. family food consumption by nearly 10 percent. Items like candy, soda, and packaged snacks take more ingredients and more processing, which translates to higher environmental impacts. Another effective way to reduce your carbon emissions is to avoid bulk buys. Households of one or two people may end up with food waste when they try to save money with bulk buys. Before you buy supersize, consider whether a three-pound jar of peanut butter will go bad before it’s used up. The researchers of the study also suggest consuming fewer ready-made foods. One average microwave meal may not have a very large carbon footprint. But buying them regularly can add up to high emissions because ready-made foods are sold in large quantities, which makes their carbon footprint significant, the study found. By making the above changes, the U.S. could cut more than a quarter of emissions from household food consumption, the researchers say. That’s about 36 million metric tons — about what 6.6 million households generate in a year of electricity use. “Collective action can make a huge impact,” says study co-author Hua Cai. 8. Why does the author mention being a vegetarian in Paragraph 1? A. To encourage us to become vegetarians. B. To introduce the findings of a recent study. C. To illustrate the impact of greenhouse gas emission. D. To tell readers it’s not a good way to help the environment. 9. How many methods are suggested by the study to reduce our food carbon footprint? A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five. 10 What do the underlined words “bulk buys” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Buying things in quantity. B. Buying things of low quality. C. Buying things out of date. D Buying things of low price. 11. What might Hua Cai mean by saying “Collective action can make a huge impact”? A. We should collect some materials to make a difference. B. We should take measures quickly to make a difference. C. We should make efforts together to make a difference. D. We should avoid all unhealthy food to make a difference. 【答案】8. B 9. B 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何通过改变一些小习惯来减少碳的排放量。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Going vegan or vegetarian is one way to decrease your diet’s impact on greenhouse gas emissions (排放) — but it isn’t the only way. A recent Purdue University study suggests that smaller changes can make a difference too, while improving your health.(吃素或素食是减少饮食对温室气体排放影响的一种方法，但这不是唯一的方法。普渡大学(Purdue University)最近的一项研究表明，小的改变也可以产生影响，同时改善你的健康。)”可知，作者提出素食主义是为了引出话题，介绍通过一些小改变就可以减少碳的排放量，即该研究的新发现。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“One is to skip the unhealthy snacks.(一是不吃不健康的零食。)”、文章第三段“Another effective way to reduce your carbon emissions is to avoid bulk buys.(另一个减少碳排放的有效方法是避免批量购买。)”和文章第四段“The researchers of the study also suggest consuming fewer ready-made foods.(这项研究的研究人员还建议少吃现成的食物。)”可知，该研究提出了3种方法来减少我们的食物碳足迹。故选B。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据下文“Before you buy supersize, consider whether a three-pound jar of peanut butter will go bad before it’s used up.(在你购买超大号的花生酱之前，考虑一下一罐3磅重的花生酱在用完之前是否会变质。)”可知，只有一两个人的家庭为了节省大量购买的钱，最终可能会造成食物浪费。由此可知，bulk buys意为“大批购买”。故选A。 11题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章最后一段“By making the above changes, the U.S. could cut more than a quarter of emissions from household food consumption, the researchers say. That’s about 36 million metric tons — about what 6.6 million households generate in a year of electricity use. “Collective action can make a huge impact,” says study co-author Hua Cai. ( 研究人员说，通过上述改变，美国可以减少家庭食品消费排放的四分之一以上。这大约是3600万吨——大约是660万户家庭一年的用电量。“集体行动可以产生巨大的影响，”该研究的合著者华彩说。)”可知，“Collective action can make a huge impact”的意思是呼吁我们应该共同努力，做出改变。故选C。 How do you beat the summer heat? If you’ re like most people, you turn the air conditioning on when it’s the hottest time of the day. But what if you could use nonpeak (非高峰的) electrical hours and store the cold to use the next day? This idea has become a reality for a New York City high-rise that’s being cooled by ice. Eleven Madison, a skyscraper in the heart of Manhattan, is using cool, frozen ice overnight to cool the building, reported CBS News. Four stories below ground, an ice battery system freezes water during the night, when electrical use is low, and uses this ice to cool the building during the day. “There’s about 500,000 pounds of ice created every night,” said Holly Paeper, president of Trane Technologies, a company that did the installation (装置) . Air conditioning uses nearly 20% of energy use in homes and businesses globally. However, on extremely hot days, that number can jump to 70%. Installations like the one in Eleven Madison help to lower that. According to Paeper, the company has installed the technology in about 4,000 sites worldwide. The system in the basement of Eleven Madison uses 100 tanks that are each the size of a parking spot. Because there’s a lot of energy consumed in freezing water, a more effective way had to be found. “We take water, and add some other elements in it,” explained Dr. Patrick Shamberger, an associate professor at Texas A&M. “So we can take control of that temperature basically anywhere we want it, in the zero to 20℃ range.” While ice batteries aren’t being used to cool food or to power electrical devices, they’re being used to cool buildings. For now, combining ice batteries with other types of energy storage from renewables can help the power grid (电网) to keep up in hot weather as well as lower the cost of electricity. It’s a win-win for all. 12. What does the author want to stress in paragraph 3? A. The necessity of ice batteries. B. The popularity of the technology. C. The features of the high-rise. D. The significance of air conditioning. 13. Why were some elements added in the water? A. To make the water cleaner. B. To use the energy fully. C. To control the temperature. D. To add space occupation. 14. What can be inferred about ice batteries according to the text? A. They are cheap to install. B. They are energy-saving. C. They are extremely harmful. D. They are used to cool food. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Process of Ice Battery Production B. Power-hungry Air Conditioning C. Advantages of Storing Electricity D. A Creative System for Cooling 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍纽约曼哈顿的Eleven Madison摩天大厦采用夜间制冰、白天用冰制冷的创新系统，以应对夏季高温并节约能源。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Air conditioning uses nearly 20% of energy use in homes and businesses globally. However, on extremely hot days, that number can jump to 70%. Installations like the one in Eleven Madison help to lower that.(全球范围内，空调消耗了家庭和企业近20%的能源。然而，在极端炎热的日子里，这个数字可能会飙升到70%。像Eleven Madison里的装置有助于降低这一比例。)”可知，作者通过说明空调能耗高的问题，强调了冰电池系统的必要性。故选A项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“We take water, and add some other elements in it. So we can take control of that temperature basically anywhere we want it, in the zero to 20℃ range.(我们先取来水，然后在其中加入一些其他物质。这样一来，我们就能在几乎任何我们想要的温度范围内（即 0 至 20 摄氏度之间）控制温度了。)”可知，在水中添加其他元素是为了控制温度。故选C项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Installations like the one in Eleven Madison help to lower that.(像Eleven Madison里的装置有助于降低这一比例。)”以及第五段中的“For now, combining ice batteries with other types of energy storage from renewables can help the power grid (电网) to keep up in hot weather as well as lower the cost of electricity. (目前，将冰电池与其他类型的可再生能源储存相结合，有助于电网在炎热天气下维持运行，并降低电力成本。)”可推断，冰电池是节能的。故选B项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文和第一段的“This idea has become a reality for a New York City high-rise that’s being cooled by ice.(这一想法如今已在纽约市的一座高层建筑中成为现实，该建筑通过使用冰块来实现降温。)”可知，全文围绕“冰电池帮助建筑物降温”这一核心展开：开头提出设想并引入实例（Eleven Madison），接着具体描述该冰电池系统的工作原理（夜间制冰、日间供冷）和规模，指出其解决空调高能耗问题的价值，解释其提升效率的关键技术（特殊水质处理）)，最后点明其当前应用范围（建筑物降温）及与可再生能源结合带来的综合效益（稳定电网、降低成本），因此“一种创新的冷却系统”最适合作为本文标题。故选D项。 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。 English family names or surnames as we know today weren’t widely used until the Norman conquest (征服)of 1066.

Time and again, she asked her parents, promising to walk, feed, and look after it. Each time, though, they gave the same gentle response: “We’ll see.” One afternoon, on her way home from school, Fauna saw a little dog wandering near the park. Its fur was messy, and it looked lost, sniffing the ground as if searching for something. Feeling curious and hopeful, Fauna bent down and called to it. The dog quickly ran over, wagging (摇) its tail and gently pressing its nose into her hand, like they had known each other forever. She looked around, but no one seemed to be searching for the dog. Feeling pity for the lost dog, Fauna decided to take it home. As they walked side by side, her heart swelled with joy. It felt as though this was the pet she had always dreamed of—a friend she had been waiting for. At the front door, Fauna’s mother greeted her with a warm smile. Although she found the dog adorable, she gently reminded Fauna that they needed to try and find its owner. If the dog was lost, someone must be missing it. Fauna reluctantly (不情愿地) agreed, though part of her wished no one would come forward to claim the little dog. Over the next few days, Fauna and the dog—whom she named Buddy—grew inseparable. She fed him, played with him, and let him sleep curled up at the foot of her bed. Every day, it became harder to imagine life without him. Buddy seemed happy too, wagging his tail whenever she came home from school. But Fauna knew deep down that she had to do the right thing. She and her parents posted flyers around town, hoping to find Buddy’s owner. Just a few days later, the phone rang. Fauna’s heart sank as her father answered. From the conversation, it was clear that the caller was Buddy’s owner. He described Buddy perfectly—the friendly eyes and playful personality. Fauna knew Buddy would soon be leaving her. Her father arranged for the owner to come by and pick Buddy up. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 When the man arrived, the little dog ran straight into his arms, barking with joy. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ That evening, Fauna sat quietly in her room, feeling the emptiness that Buddy’s absence had left behind. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】When the man arrived, the little dog ran straight into his arms, barking with joy. Fauna watched as Buddy wagged his tail furiously, licking the man’s face with excitement. It was clear that Buddy remembered his owner and was overjoyed to see him again. The man thanked Fauna and her family for taking such good care of Buddy. Fauna knelt down to give Buddy one last hug, whispering, “I’ll miss you, Buddy.” As the man led Buddy away, Fauna stood at the door, waving until they were out of sight. That evening, Fauna sat quietly in her room, feeling the emptiness that Buddy’s absence had left behind. Her parents noticed her sadness and sat down with her. Her father said, “How about visiting the animal shelter this weekend? If you’re ready, maybe we can find a pet that needs a home—one that we can keep forever.” Fauna’s eyes lit up, and a small smile returned to her face. She realized that while saying goodbye to Buddy was hard, it had also opened the door to a new possibility—a chance to give another animal a loving home. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物和动物为线索展开。Fauna一直梦想养一只宠物，最终在公园里遇到了一只迷路的小狗，并带回了家。尽管她与小狗Buddy建立了深厚的感情，但最终Buddy的主人找到了它，Fauna不得不与Buddy分别。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ① 由第一段首句内容“当那个人到达时，小狗径直跑到他怀里，高兴地叫着。”可知，第一段可描写Buddy与主人重逢的温馨场景，以及Fauna内心的复杂情感。 ② 由第二段首句内容“那天晚上，Fauna静静地坐在她的房间里，感受着Buddy离开后留下的空虚。”可知，第二段可描写Fauna在Buddy离开后的孤独感，以及他们的计划。 2. 续写线索： 重逢场景——Buddy的喜悦——Fauna的失落——Buddy离开后的空虚——计划——感悟 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①照顾：take care of/look after ②拥抱：hug/embrace ③注意到：notice/observe 情绪类 ①兴奋地：with excitement/excitedly ②非常高兴：overjoyed/delighted 【点睛】[高分句型1] It was clear that Buddy remembered his owner and was overjoyed to see him again.（运用了it作形式主语，that引导主语从句） [高分句型2] As the man led Buddy away, Fauna stood at the door, waving until they were out of sight.（运用了连词as和until引导的时间状语从句、现在分词作状语） [高分句型3] If you’re ready, maybe we can find a pet that needs a home—one that we can keep forever.（运用了if引导的条件状语从句和that引导的定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
