Sky Guide Pros:Astronomy news updates Cons:Most useful features require a paid subscription As well as a simple design,complete with a cosmic calendar and a weather forecast,the Sky Guide app's featured'section contains a mix of excellent news and features by science communicator Dr Jenifer Millard.Along with its calendar and news,it provides plenty of stars, objects and satellites for casual stargazers. Celestron SkyPortal Pros:Audio(音频)tours in earphones Cons:Large app at 296MB After an easy pairing process the app allows your phone to act as a wireless hand controller; tapping an object on the phone screen for your scope to centre in the eyepiece. At its core is a great planetarium app,with four hours of audio commentary-and it's available to download for free. Universe2go Pros:Free app;excellent audio narration;accurate enhanced reality overlays() Cons:Larger smartphones won't fit in headset Of the many stargazing apps,there are few audio guides or enhanced reality offerings that overlay information directly onto the night sky.This one is both Cosmic Watch Pros:Creative design;encourages a new perspective on stargazing Cons:Large app at 178MB Time is not a number,it's a precise position in space,as you'll quickly learn from this stunning 3D app that's both a standard world clock and an astronomical timepiece.By observing 高二英语试卷第3页（共12页） 扫描全能王创建 可只 the changing positions of the Moon,the Sun,and the planets,you can gain a deeper understanding of celestial()motions,making the app both detailed and informative. 21.Which app suits users controlling a telescope remotely?

A.They provide audio guides B.They demand much storage C.They serve educational purposes. D.They can be downloaded for free. B The hallways at the Military Medical Center felt like a maze.My stomach was in knots as I guided Apollo,but I loosened my grip on the leash(),not wanting him to sense my tension. We had spent months preparing for this moment.What if all that work meant nothing? This calling was personal-it connected me to my grandfather,a World War II veteran who had lost a leg.Watching him struggle with an artificial one gave me a profound respect for the military.I had even planned to enlist(),until life pulled me toward training animals for Hollywood. In 2011,a retired Army officer called,asking if I could train a service dog for his friend Tyler,who had lost both legs in battle.That's how Apollo entered my life.Donated by a breeder who found him"difficult,"he was the most out-of-control dog I had ever seen-chewing car doors and breaking leashes.Yet I refused to give up,knowing this wasn't a movie set:if Tyler fell,Apollo had to be perfect. Finally,the day arrived.Tyler,tough but tired,rolled toward us.I introduced Apollo and explained what he could do-brace()for balance and pull a wheelchair uphill.Tyler rested his head against Apollo's neck,tears in his eyes."Thank you,"he whispered.Relief washed over me.I thought I would hand over the leash and walk away,but instead,more veterans began asking if I could train dogs for them. That moment grew into the Argus Service Dog Foundation,dedicated to providing highly trained service dogs-free of charge-to disabled veterans.I realized then why this work mattered:dogs,unlike people,never say,"You're not the same anymore."I walked away from Hollywood,slept on couches,and lived on free appetizers while building the foundation. Then came a new calling:a TV series,Lucky Dog,where I trained shelter dogs to serve families in need.It was the perfect blend of show business and service.On my wall hangs the 高二英语试卷第4页（共12页） 扫描全能王创建 可只 old "lucky leash,"once torn by Apollo.To me,it's a reminder that even the most broken beginnings can lead to lifelong purpose. 24.Why did the author start training service dogs? A.To meet Tyler's request. B.To gain Hollywood fame. C.To imitate his grandfather. D.To assist disabled veterans. 25.What does Lucky Dog mean to the author? A.An escape from financial struggles. B.A shortcut to fame and recognition. C.A bridge between career and purpose. D.An opportunity to sell training services. 26.Which of the following best reflects the author's character? A.Mission-driven. B.Thrill-seeking. C.Detail-focused. D.People-pleasing. 27.What does the author's experience show? A.Fortune favors the brave. B.A barking dog never bites C.Every cloud has a silver lining. D.Birds of a feather flock together. C The invaders appeared out of nowhere.Looking through my window,I saw them-dozens of tiny grey caterpillars,seemingly crawling all over a lovely green plant in my garden.Initially, I felt like a farmer whose cornfield had just been destroyed by locusts(). A little Googling,though,set me straight.It turned out that the plant was Solomon's seal-a typical cottage garden flower that each summer gets caught in a struggle with the very insect attacker I had witnessed:the Solomon's seal sawfly.According to the UK's Royal Horticultural Society (RHS),"This insect poses no serious threat and the plants will survive."What first looked like a terrible attack was just one of those many trade-offs that occur in nature all the time. Hayley Jones of the RHS recalls that her beautiful red rose bush often sparked debate with her husband."He enjoyed the flowers,while I enjoyed watching a variety of different bugs filling their bellies,"she says.The damage to the rose's leaves never really bothered her.She explains,"If you plant things that are destined to be eaten,you naturally encourage the next link in the food chain,as predators like birds are drawn to your garden as well.A well-balanced garden shouldn't be chewed bare and turned into a wasteland." But plants are not defenseless either.A study led by the University of Houston found that when insects eat Arabidopsis,the plant changes how its genes work,and it responds differently depending on the insect.Some,like cabbage and mustard,can even make a sacrifice of a tiny 高二英语试卷第5页（共12页） 扫描全能王创建 百究 patch of leaf to prevent a caterpillar from hatching.Others exhibit compensatory() growth,producing more flowers or fruit if resources allow. For gardeners growing food,however,plant-eating insects can be more worrying.Aphids on tomatoes,slugs on spinach,or caterpillars on cabbage can spoil the harvest.To reduce the risk, some gardeners use crops as a sacrifice,such as nasturtiums,to draw pests away from their valuable vegetables. Perhaps more of us might learn to marvel at caterpillars tearing through a native bush,or take quiet delight in seeing a Solomon's seal being eaten.After all,they're not just your plants- they're someone's dinner. 28.How does the author's attitude toward the caterpillars change? A.From fear to sadness. B.From horror to tolerance. C.From fascination to regret. D.From curiosity to indifference. 29.What would Hayley Jones most likely advocate? A.Establishing a bug-free habitat. B.Simplifying food webs for safety. C.Replacing wasteland with gardens. D.Promoting a biodiverse eco-system. 30.What does the underlined word"sacrifice"refer to in paragraph 4 and 5? A.Patterns for growing plants. B.Techniques for trapping pests. C.Strategies for dealing with insects D.Practices for guarding against diseases. 31.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.What Insects Mean for Nature's Balance B.Who You Might Blame for Eaten Leaves C.Where Plants Show Their Hidden Defenses D.Why You Should Let Insects Eat Your Plants ◇ If you consider yourself reasonably intelligent and educated,you might assume that you understand how the world works-from everyday inventions to natural phenomena.But think about this:How does a toilet flush?Why can sunny days be colder than cloudy days?Could you give a detailed answer,or only a vague idea?Many people,when asked to explain,are completely at a loss.This bias is known as an"illusion of knowledge." The concept was first identified in 2002 by Rozenblit and Keil at Yale,the phenomenon was revealed through studies where participants rated how well they thought they could explain scientific processes before writing in-depth explanations.Initially confident,many produced only sketchy accounts and were surprised by how little they knew.The Yale researchers argued 高二英语试卷第6页（共12页） 扫描全能王创建 that this overconfidence arose from the ease of visualising processes-such as picturing a helicopter's flight-which created a false sense of understanding.Later studies showed that having online resources at our fingertips may feed our overconfidence,as we mistake the wealth of knowledge on the internet for our own memories. The illusion of knowledge does not remain restricted to scientific curiosities.It can shape our decisions and behaviour on a daily basis.In the workplace,for example,it may lead us to overstate our expertise in interviews,overlook the contributions of our colleagues and take on jobs for which we are ill-prepared. What can people do to avoid these pitfalls()One simple solution is to test yourself.If you are assessing your ability to handle an unfamiliar task,don't rely on a vague sense of what it involves.Instead,think carefully through each step,and you may discover significant gaps to address before acting.It also helps to talk with an expert,who can help you check false assumptions.Given the role of online habits,pause and try to recall a fact before searching. Feeling the discomfort of ignorance can foster a more realistic view of what you truly know. The aim,with all of this,is to cultivate a little more humility -one of the classic "intellectual virtues"celebrated by philosophers.By recognising our illusions of knowledge and admitting the limits of our understanding,we may all sidestep some unfortunate thinking traps to enjoy wiser decision making. 32.How does the author introduce the topic? A.By making a contrast. B.By quoting an expert. C.By providing background. D.By explaining reasons. 33.Which daily habit most likely fuels the illusion of knowledge? A.Watching short videos for entertainment. B.Memorizing vocabulary lists without practice. C.Bookmarking articles instead of reading them. D.Downloading lecture PPTs as learning materials. 34.What does paragraph 3 focus on regarding the illusion of knowledge? A.Its roles in job-hunting markets. B.Its consequences in everyday life. C.Its significance in work environment. D.Its demonstration in scientific studies. 35.What can help us cultivate the"intellectual virtues"? A.Handling unfamiliar tasks. B.Hiding personal ignorance. C.Identifying knowledge gaps. D.Challenging philosophers'ideas. 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。 高二英语试卷第7页（共12页) 架 扫描全能王创建 百 How to Help Kids Balance Screen Time and Study Time Raising kids in the digital age can feel like walking a tightrope-on one side,you want to give them the freedom to explore,and on the other,you worry about them tumbling into endless hours of screen time.36 Here are some practical strategies to guide kids toward healthier habits: Encourage physical and offline activities. 37 Encourage your child to get outside,play sports,or engage in practical activities like drawing or reading.Balancing screen use with movement keeps the brain and body in sync(同步) 38 Kids often mirror their parents'behaviors.If they see us glued to our phones or laptops all evening,it's harder to enforce screen limits.Demonstrating mindful tech use-such as putting devices away during conversations or prioritizing offline activities-can encourage them to do the same Create tech-free zones and times.
