Over the past few years, it is common that people spend excessive time on browsing short videos. From my perspective, though in this digital era where short videos seem to reign, text reading will stand the test of time and never be replaced. First and foremost, not only does text reading offer an unparalleled depth of comprehension, but it also fuels our imagination, through which, we are able to embark on a journey into the author's mind, exploring ideas and emotions in a way that short videos simply can't match. Additionally, as we analyze and interpret the written word, it is text reading that fosters patience and concentration, qualities that are rare in our fast-paced digital age. Last but not least, while short videos offer quick pleasure, they often lack the depth and detail found in texts, which also explains why text reading can never be replaced. In a word, text reading remains a precious intellectual and emotional treasure. So, let's cherish and savour the lasting joy and great benefits of textual reading! 读后续写： Tommy lowered his head and looked at his shoes thinking intensely. Finally, he raised his head. “So I am supposed to ...” he stopped mid-sentence when he realized that he was alone. He turned his head left and right, but the old man was nowhere to be seen. Tommy sighed heavily - he already had an idea of what he should do. He looked at figurines for the last time and moved towards the counter. “Two sandwiches and a cup of tea please,” he said. The next second found Tommy hurrying out of the shop, carefully watching out for the lady. The homeless woman was right there, where he saw her last time. Tommy came closer and carefully gave the woman the food. Her eyes opened wide in surprise, then filled with tears. “Thank you”, she whispered. Tommy bowed his head, turned around and went back home. He was moving faster and faster and finally he started to run.A strange energy filled his body, making him feel like he could fly. When he finally stopped, he was breathing heavily, but he didn't feel tired. He smiled happily. Right then, he knew: he'd discovered how to be a hero. 高二英语 第1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $该文档足极璃PDF瑞墙器生成， 如果想去掉该捉示，请访问并下载 http://www.jisupdfeditor.com 东华高级中学 2025-2026学年第一学期学习效率检测（一） 高二英语 命题人：麦雪瑜、杨琪审题人：甘显冰 本试题共三部分，满分150分，考试时间120分钟 注意事项： 1.本试卷分阅读理解、英语知识运用、写作三部分。 2.答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡相应位置，并用2B铅笔涂黑。 3.全部答案在答题卡上完成，写在试卷上无效。 4.选择题用2B铅笔填涂，笔试部分用黑色签字笔填写在答题卡指定答题区域。 第一部分阅读理解（共两节，满分50分) 第一节阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂 黑。（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） Y Vienna may be one of Europe's smallest capitals,but it is rich with culture.One day of museum-hopping can take you from a former palace housing one of the world's most significant artworks to the contemporary art galleries of the Museums Quartier Kunsthistorisches Museum Although the museum is excellent,it is rarely overcrowded with visitors.If you visit at the right time,you can still be alone with Caravaggio.You can have a little dialogue with some of the biggest masterpieces.You can also take part in the museum's mystery hunt-an adult treasure hunt through the Egyptian-Oriental collection.

Now,a new study is offering insight. Writing in the journal Royal Society Open Science,Victor Chung of the Ecole Normale Superieure in France and his team reported how they examined the matter by inviting strangers to watch videos together in same sex pairs. Pairs of strangers watched three types of videos together:positive,negative,and neutral with a curtain between them that was either open or closed.At the start of the experiment the researchers asked each participant whether they'd like to meet the other member of their pair again. After watching each video,participants reported their emotions and feelings of connection,and after seeing all three videos they were asked once again about their feelings towards the other participant. The results showed the emotional films generated stronger responses than the neutral film. Crucially,the team said participants'feelings of connection within the pairs was boosted when they experienced more intense emotions.However,this was only the case when participants watched the films with the curtain between them open.The researchers said that whether or not the pairs could see each other had no impact on how positively or negatively they felt about the films. "We found that silently watching emotional films together with another individual is associated with social bonding,even when this person is a stranger and without any verbal communication,"said Chung,the study author.More importantly,the findings may help explain why people seek out group activities that generate strong emotions,"even participating in sad memorials that cause negative emotions."In other words,because emotion bonds us,and humans have a fundamental desire to belong,we're up for experiences one might think we'd naturally want to avoid 8.What does“the phenomenon”in paragraph 1 refer to？ A.Shared emotions bond people. B.Physical touch helps tackle stress C.A chance encounter leads to a friendship D.Entertainment is a crucial part of human life. 9.How did the researchers get their findings? A.By analyzing participants'emotions. B.By comparing participants'self-reports. C.By documenting participants'video responses D.By stimulating participants'desire for interaction 10.The study found that strong bonds were indeed created between pairs only when A.they were familiar with each other. B.they watched neutral films together. C.they were aware of the presence of each other. D.they could see each other while watching the films. 高二英语第3页共8页 11.What is mainly presented in the last paragraph? A.An explanation of the findings B.Supporting evidence for the findings C.Broader significance of the findings. D.The underlying logic behind the findings Anyone who has taken a standardized test knows that writing an essay in 20 minutes or less takes serious brain power.Having access to artificial intelligence (Al)would certainly lighten the mental load.But as a recent study by researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) suggests,that help may come at a cost. Over the course of a series of essay-wiiting sessions,students working with as well as without an AI chatbot had their brain activity measured.Across the board,the aI users exhibited markedly lower brain activity in areas associated with creative functions and attention. Whether AI will leave people's brains weak in the long term remains an open question Researchers behind this study have stressed that further work is needed to establish a definitive causal link between elevated (AI use and weakened brains.After all,the study had a tiny sample size and focused on a single narrow task. Moreover,generative-AI tools clearly seek to lighten people's mental loads,as many other technologies do.Concems about this kind of offloading aren't new.As long ago as the 5th century BC,Socrates was quoted as complaining that writing is not"a potion()for remembering,but for reminding."Calculators spare cashiers from computing a bill.Navigation apps remove the need for map-reading.And yet few would argue that people are less capable as a result. There is little evidence to suggest that letting machines handle users'mental tasks alters the brain's capacity for thinking.But the worry is that generative aI allows one to offload a thought process.And once the brain has developed a taste for offloading,it can be a hard habit to kick.As one user put it,"I rely so much on AI that I don't think I'd know how to solve certain problems without it." The technology is so young that,for many tasks,the human brain is still the sharpest tool in the toolkit.But in time both the consumers of AI and its regulators will have to assess whether its wider benefits outweigh any cognitive (costs.If stronger evidence emerges that AI makes people less intelligent,will they care? 12.What does paragraph 3 emphasize about the MIT study? A.The procedures it followed. B.The limitations in its design C.The conclusion it has drawn. D.The diversity among its participants 13.According to Socrates,what negative consequence could writing have? A.People would avoid using reminders. B.People would stop thinking independently C.People would rely less on their own memory. D.People would care less about the spoken word. 14.What point does the user's remark in paragraph 5 illustrate? A.AI can change users'mental capacity. 高二英语第4页共8页 B.AI is not widely available to the public. C.AI can encourage users'mental laziness. D.AI is not capable of solving every problem. 15.What is the main purpose of the passage? A.To discuss the possible risks and benefits of AI for human cognition. B.To call for stict regulations on AI use in daily life C.To prove that AI has negative effects on the brain. D.To warn against AI dependency with historical examples. 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。 Hobbies are more than just a fun way to kill the time.A widespread and harmful misunderstanding is that engaging in hobbies mirrors a lack of self-discipline.16 In fact, hobbies can provide essential balance in our lives and enhance overall well-being.The benefits you obtain will depend on your hobby-taking up jogging,for instance,will benefit your cardiovascular (心血管的)health more thar,say,crossword puzzles,which may improve your cognitive health The point is that nearly all hobbies can provide measurable positive health benefits. If we regularly spend time on hobbies,we usually enjoy a higher level of fitness.17 A 2023 comprehensive analysis of multiple studies found strong evidence that engaging in leisure activities can improve health by protecting against heart disease and age-related physical decline. The report,published in the joumal Lancet Psychiatry,found that for people who were suffering from a chronic (illness,doing a hobby helped them manage their symptoms and even slowed the progression of their illness.But another of the researchers'findings is perhaps the most striking:the strong relationship between doing leisure activities and increased longevity ( 18 It found that older adults have a 19%lower risk of disease-related death when they engage in regular leisure activities. 19 They are vital to sustaining our mental health.People who made a conscious effort each day to spend time doing hobbies(no matter what they were)showed an average boost of 8%in well-being and a 10%drop in stress and anxiety,according to a 2023 study published in the Journal of Personality."On a fundamental level,humans need meaning,something that gives them a sense of purpose.20"says Dr.Hafeez,who has led several massive studies on hobbies."Engaging in what you enjoy greatly enhances your well-being." With all these visible benefits of hobbies,why not just make time for activities that bring you joy and fulfillment every day? A.The science backs this up. B.Hobbies make us happier. C.You gain a lot from hobbies. D.Nothing could be further from the truth. E.The more you engage in hobbies,the longer you will live. F.A different study conducted last year confirmed the impact G.And being able to pursue your passion really contributes to that. 高二英语第5页共8页 第二部分英语知识运用（共三节；满分37.5分) 第一节完形填空（共15小题；每小题1.5分，满分22.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Lauren and Andrew Gruel,owners of a seafood restaurant,are used to thinking local.21 they serve fresh seafood from nearby fishers,but this week,their restaurant has become a wildfire 22 center.
