Koyaanisgatsi (1982) To call Koyaanisgatsi a nature documentary might feel like a stretch,but no other nonfiction film presents a clearer criticism of the relationship between human beings,the systems we've created,and the environment that sustains us.The title is a Hopi word that translates to"life in chaos"and it pretty much tells you what's inside.Maybe most notable is the fact that Koyaanisgatsi came out in 1982,and yet its unspoken observations about how we use the environment in the name of commerce and progress are even more predictable today. Grizzly Man (2005) Grizzly Man is not so much a wildlife documentary as it is a tragic love story between humanity and the wilderness.Timothy Treadwell,an amateur environmentalist,spent 13 summers filming himself among Alaskan grizzly bears,naming them,petting them, sometimes hand-feeding them,until one of them killed him and his girlfriend,Amie Huguenard,in 2003.Werner Herzog pieces together Treadwell's 100-plus hours of footage( )with his calm narration.Treadwell believed the wild could love him back;Herzog sees only how small we are in its jaws. Planet Earth I-II (2006-2023) It feels like everyone has seen Planet Earth,but we'd be irresponsible not to include this TV series in our list of favorites.From its start in 2006,when it was a big deal that it was shot in high definition,to the use of drones and underwater craft while filming Planet Earth Ill in 2023,Planet Earth has amazing and intimate footage and,of course,the impressive narrator Sir David Attenborough. Blue Planet II (2017) 高二英语试卷 第3页共11页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描ApP It's hard to overstate the cultural impact of BBC's Blue Planet I.The follow-up to the 2001 series (The Blue Planet)showcases the deep sea in revolutionary detail.After the final episode ("Our Blue Planet")aired,the documentary series contributed to an international emphasis on marine plastic pollution.In fact,a Waitrose-commissioned survey found that 9 out of 10 respondents had cut back on single-use plastics. 21.According to the article,which documentaries might inspire people's conservation awareness? A.Koyaanisgatsi and Grizzly Man B.Planet Earth I-III and Blue Planet II C.Koyaanisgatsi and Blue Planet II D.Grizzly Man and Planet Earth I-III 22.What can you learn about Grizzly Man? A.It's a scientific research on grizzly bears'habits B.It's a guide on how to protect grizzly bears effectively. C.It's a sad story with the photographer killed by the wild animal. D.It's about the harmonious relationship between humanity and wilderness. 23.Where is the text probably taken from? A.A digital magazine.B.A tourist brochure.C.A museum guide.D.A course plan. B In the world of high school science fairs,most projects test hypotheses()in chemistry or physics.But 16-year-old Maria Gonzalez from Texas decided to tackle a different kind of problem:the "ugly"food waste. Inspired by seeing her local grocery store throw away fruits and vegetables that were perfectly good but slightly misshapen,Maria developed a mobile app called "Perfectly Imperfect".The app connects local stores with surplus "ugly"produce to consumers and food banks at a discounted price. "People often judge food by its appearance,not its nutritional value,"Maria said."This leads to massive waste,while many families struggle to afford fresh food.I wanted to create a simple solution.” Users can open the app,see a list of nearby participating stores,and purchase a"surprise bag"of imperfect produce at 40%below the regular price.A portion of the profit is donated to community food banks.Maria spent months learning programming and negotiating with store managers to pilot her project. Her effort paid off.In its first three months,the app redirected over 5 tons of"ugly"food from landfills and helped 50 low-income families get access to affordable fresh produce. Maria's project not only won the top prize at her school's science fair but also caught the attention of the local city council,which is now considering funding to expand the project citywide. Maria's project shows that innovation isn't just about high-tech gadgets(小工具)；it's about solving real-world problems with empathy(and creativity."one council member remarked. 24.What is the main purpose of Maria's app "Perfectly Imperfect"? A.To teach people about the nutritional value of fruits and vegetables. B.To provide a platform for stores to advertise their new products 高二英语试卷第4页共11页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描ApP C.To reduce food waste and help those in need get affordable food. D.To compete in her school science fair and win the top prize. 25.What can users do through Maria's app? A.Donate money directly to local food banks. B.Order a bag of imperfect produce at a lower price. C.Volunteer at grocery stores involved in the project. D.Learn to develop their own apps and pilot the project. 26.What is the local city council's attitude towards Maria's project? A.Doubtful and critical. B.Indifferent and uninterested. C.Supportive and impressed. D.Careful and hesitant. 27.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.High School Science Fairs:A Platform for Innovation B.Fighting Food Waste:ATeen's App for"Ugly"Produce C.Teen's App Fights Food Waste and Feeds Families D.How to Develop a Successful Mobile Application If you think art is just about gallery walls and Instagram likes,think again.Artolution,a global nonprofit founded by artist Max Frieder,is proving that cooperative public art can do something far more powerful:help rebuild lives in refugee()camps and crisis-affected communities around the world. Artolution partners with local teaching artists-often refugees themselves-to lead community mural()projects,sculpture workshops,and performance art in places like Bangladesh,Jordan,Uganda,South Sudan,and Ukraine.These aren't just feel-good activities.They're part of a larger strategy to support mental health,social inclusion(包容)，and economic empowerment(赋权). Each project begins with group sessions where participants-often children and youth-define a shared vision.Then comes the cooperative art-making:painting murals,building musical sculptures from repurposed materials,and even learning animation and digital design. In partnership with organizations like UNHCR and Medair,Artolution integrates its work into broader mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS)programs. Their2024 pilot in Lebanon,for example,helped trauma(痛苦经历)-affected communities reclaim public spaces through art,turning sites of pain into symbols of hope. In the Rohingya refugee camps of Bangladesh,a young woman named Dildar- who had been unable to speak due to trauma-found her voice again through Artolution's workshops.Her story is one of many that show how art can be a lifeline, not just a luxury.In Jordan,Syrian and Jordanian women are learning crafting and entrepreneurship()skills through Artolution's Women's Empowerment Project. These workshops don't just teach art-they teach independence,confidence,and marketable skills. 高二英语试卷 第5页共11页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描ApP Artolution's work is being recognized globally.In November 2025,Fairfield University will host an exhibition and panel discussion featuring refugee-created artworks shown at the UN Headquarters on World Refugee Day 2024.The event will highlight how art promotes healing and community across borders. As artists,we often talk about impact.Artolution shows what that really looks like-murals painted in refugee camps,sculptures built from wastes,and performances that give voice to the voiceless.It's a reminder that art isn't just decoration.It's a transformation. So if you're looking for inspiration,cooperation,or a way to use your skills for good,Artolution is a model worth studying-and supporting. 28..What can we learn about Artolution? A.It focuses on organizing art exhibitions in famous galleries. B.It employs art creation to help refugees across the world. C.It helps refugees gain social media popularity through art D.It only operates in European countries to support local art education. 29.What does the underlined word "repurposed"mean in paragraph 3? A.Remarkable.B.Rejected.C.Recycled.D.Reliable 30.Why are the stories mentioned in paragraph 5? A.To stress the importance of cooperation. B.To illustrate the positive effects of Artolution. C.To show the women are excellent at art creation. D.To introduce the working procedure of Artolution. 31.What is the purpose of the text? A.To persuade.B.To argue.C.To entertain.D.To inform. D In today's world,a photo can reveal much more than what meets the eye.A groundbreaking student project from Stanford University has shown that artificial intelligence (AD can now guess the location where a photo was taken with surprising accuracy.The project, named PIGEON,was developed by three graduate students.Initially,they trained the AI system to play a game that involved identifying locations on Google Street View.However, they soon made a remarkable discovery:their AI had learned so much that it could also determine the locations of personal photos it had never seen before.This ability to "geolocate" images moved from a simple game to a powerful new tool. This new technology is a classic double-edged sword,offering both exciting benefits and potential risks.On the positive side,it could help people identify places in old family photographs where the locations have been forgotten.It could also assist field biologists in monitoring plant species and tracking environmental changes more efficiently.For educators,it could become a valuable tool for teaching geography. However,these positive uses come with a concerning downside.As Jay Stanley,a senior policy analyst,warns,this technology could expose private location information-used in the wrong hands for business tracking,government surveillance(监控)，or even stalkers(跟踪者) finding victims-making identifying someone's location from a posted photo a serious privacy 高二英语试卷 第6页共11页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描ApP and safety risk.The AI achieves this by detecting hidden clues in images that humans might miss,such as vegetation types,soil conditions,architectural styles,and weather patterns; during tests,it accurately identified many locations from the students'cross-country trip photos (including remote areas),even locating a specific Yellowstone National Park campsite to within 35 miles. Recognizing these privacy risks,the student creators have wisely decided not to release their full AI model to the public.They hope this will prevent misuse while allowing for discussion about how such technology should be managed.Stanley suggests that as AI continues to evolve,we must all become more aware of the information we share online.A simple photo can reveal our location,and with advancing Al,that information is becoming easier for others to access.This development reminds us that technological progress must be balanced with careful consideration of its ethical(implications. 32.With regard to PIGEON,what can you learn from the first paragraph? A.It was intended to recognize locations. B.It instructed AI system to take photos. C.It was created for Google by three graduates. D.It was originally expected to locate all the unknown images. 33.According to the passage,what is a potential upside of the project? A.It enables government agents to conduct personal monitoring. B.It allows marketing companies to track consumer behavior. C.It helps stalkers find their victims'private information. D.It aids students majoring in geography in their studies. 34.Why are the creators of PIGEON not displaying the full model to the public? A.To complete more tests on its performance. B.To maintain originality for their research. C.To avoid giving away privacy and misuse. D.To sell the technology to private companies. 35.What is the passage mainly about? A.To explain the technical principles of the PIGEON project in detail. B.To introduce a powerful but potentially risky new AI technology. C.To criticize the developers for not releasing their AI model. D.To promote the application of AI in environmental protection. 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。 We often think of humor as a simple pleasure,but its benefits are far greater.It is a powerful tool for our overall well-being.36 37 When we laugh,our body relaxes quickly,and blood flows more smoothly.This process does good to your heart and blood vessels.Studies have even shown that people who laugh daily are less likely to have heart disease.Besides,laughter encourages the release of natural mood-boosting chemicals,which act as the body's painkillers.38 Furthermore,a 高二英语试卷第7页共11页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描ApP good sense.of humor,can boost our immune system;,making us more resistant to colds and other small illnesses. -The psychological advantages are equally impressive.Humor is a fantastic way to reduce stress.When we laugh,our body produces fewer stress hormones.At the same time,focusing on something funny prevents us from focusing on negative thoughts.39 This lightens our mood and helps us stay positive even on-hard-days.

Nowadays,Dad was constantly occupied with work.I knew he was bearing the 'weight of our family's world on his shoulders.Even at home,exhaustion was his constant companion.I'd often see him massaging his temples after long calls,his dinner growing cold on the table.Our conversations during meals were often brief and quiet.The laughter frozen in that photo felt like a distant memory,buried under a mountain of responsibilities that he shouldered alone. When I heard his car arrive that evening,a sudden inspiration seized me.I discovered him collapsed on the sofa,the day's exhaustion written on his face. "Dad,"I began,voice shaking as I showed him the photograph,"remember this?" He studied the image,a faint smile touching his lips."That old hoop...I remember how you'd beg to play every evening." "I was looking at this photo today,"I continued."Would you care to shoot some baskets? Like we used to?” He sighed deeply,his gaze drifting toward the window."That hoop must be rusted solid by now."The silence stretched before he added,"I'm not that young man in the photo anymore." "Neither am I that little boy,"I replied softly."But maybe we could both use a break from being adults for a while." He looked up,surprise gleaming in his tired eyes.The silence lengthened as I watched him weighing my request against the fatigue()in his bones.My hopeful heart began to sink- maybe I was asking for too much. 注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 高二英语试卷 第10页共11页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描ApP
