B Sawang Janpram,a 105-year-old Thai athlete,recently added four more gold medals to his collection at the 2025 World Masters Games in Chinese Taipei.Since Janpram was the only competitor in the 100-plus age group,his participation itself was enough to secure victories in the 100-meter run,javelin throw,discus throw and shot put.This outstanding achievement brought his total number of World Masters Games medals to 60."I'm proud he's brought honor to our family,said his 73-year-old daughter,Siripan,who also won three medals at the event. The World Masters Games is an international multi-sport event held every four years, similar to the Olympics.What sets.it apart is that all participants are 30 years old or older, with competitors divided into age groups.The Games aim to promote continued sports participation among middle-aged and elderly athletes and encourage better health. Janpram began regular exercise after turning 80.According to the Games'description,he started exercising with Siripan,who practices track and field,after seeing many of his friends become bedridden due to illness.He began competing in sports events at the age of 90. Today,Janpram walks daily,runs three to four times a week,and ensures he gets enough sleep."When you eat well and sleep well,you will be in a good mood and live a regular life, and naturally,you will be healthy,he said.He also believes that exercising outside the home is beneficial to the elderly as it allows them to make new friends. The 2025 World Masters Games featured nearly 26,000 athletes from 107 countries. Janpram is unsure if he will participate in the 2027 Games in Japan,stating that it will depend on his health.For now,he plans to continue his regular exercise,whether it is walking near his home or going to the grocery store with Siripan."I'm so proud of my father that he can still do this and that he is strong,"she said."People admire him wherever he goes. 【高二期中考试·英语第3页（共8页）】 26-T-203B 24.What do we know about Janpram in the 2025 World Masters Games?

Ana Sepulveda is not alone.Across the US,teachers are using artificial intelligence(AI) tools like chatbots to help with their work.These tools aid in writing quizzes,designing lessons,grading tasks and reducing paperwork.Many teachers report that saving time this way makes them better educators. A recent national survey found that 6 out of 10 public school teachers used AI tools during the past school year.High school teachers and newer teachers used them most often.Teachers using AI weekly say it saves them about six hours,suggesting it could help reduce tiredness and overwork. About 8 in 10 teachers using AI say it saves time on tasks like making worksheets or tests.Around 6 in 10 believe it improves their work quality,especially when changing student materials or giving comments."AI has changed how I teach.It's also given me a better work-life balance,"said high school teacher Mary McCarthy. However,experts advise careful use.States are creating school guidelines."We want to make sure AI isn't replacing the judgment of a teacher,said Professor Maya Israel.She notes AI is good for basic grading(like multiple-choice tests)but less effective in tasks needing careful judgment.The final decision should always rest with the teacher. Teachers also stress using AI properly.Training helps them model good use for students. "It feels like my responsibility to help them figure out how to deal with a future where Al is part of daily life,"McCarthy explained.Some teachers use AI only for specific project parts, ensuring students first develop their own skills.Concerns remain about students overusing Al, potentially affecting critical thinking,and experienced teachers also learn to spot AI-written student work. 28.How does the first paragraph develop? A.By presenting a survey result. B.By giving a specific example. C.By referring to experts'opinions. D.By comparing different methods. 29.What do the numbers in paragraphs 3 and 4 show? A.Most teachers using AI benefit from it.B.AI saves teachers 8 hours every week. C.Newer teachers dislike using AI tools.D.AI is used by all public school teachers. 【高二期中考试·英语第4页（共8页）】 26-T-203B 30.How does Professor Maya Israel view AI? A.It has no limits in teaching. B.It needs to be used carefully. C.It is ineffective in basic grading. D.It is better than teachers'judgment. 31.What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A.Newer teachers rarely need training to use AI. B.Experienced teachers are against using AI in class. C.Teachers need to guide students on proper AI use. D.AI can fully replace teachers in material preparation. D Planting trees is a popular way to try to balance out carbon emissions(a碳排放)，but a new study shows it could never fully make up for pollution from the world's biggest fossil fuel(化石燃料) companies.To take in enough carbon just from the future emissions tied to the top 200 oil, gas and coal companies'reserves,you would need to cover the entire land area of North and Central America with trees.This is impossible because there simply isn't enough available land on Earth. Researchers figured out that if these companies paid for planting all those trees,it would cost 10.8 trillion-more than their combined market value of $7.01 trillion.Even if it were possible,the companies would face huge costs if they had to pay for the environmental damage caused by burning their reserves. “People might think carbon offsetting(抵消)is like a magic eraser,.but that's not realistic,” explained study co-author Nina Friggens.Trees naturally absorb carbon as they grow,making them a relatively cheap offset method heavily promoted by many companies.However,the study focused only on trees because other carbon trapping technologies are currently too expensive or underdeveloped. While experts praised the study for showing the extent of the problem,they warn against ruling out tree planting entirely.Done correctly,it brings important benefits like supporting wildlife,protecting against natural disasters,and improving food security.But the key point remains:we cannot plant our way out of the climate problem only by offsetting planned fossil fuel burning. Jonathan Foley likened the situation to an overflowing bathtub:"Trees are the sponges() and mops we use to clean up the mess.But if the taps(emissions)are still running full force, flooding the bathroom,you absolutely have to turn them off first.The study highlights that stopping emissions is essential;relying only on trees to clean up after fossil fuels is mathematically and physically impossible. 32.What does the second paragraph mainly talk about? A.The problems of burning fossil reserves. B.The market value of fossil fuel companies. C.The environmental damage from cutting trees D.The cost of planting trees to offset emissions. 33.Which of the following is the experts'opinion according to paragraph 4? A.Fossil fuels are safe. B.Tree planting is simple. C.Tree planting has its value. D.Carbon offsetting is unnecessary. 34.What do Jonathan Foley's words mainly suggest? A.Emissions should be reduced first. B.Trees are the best to clean emissions. C.Taps are less important than sponges. D.Running helps reduce carbon emissions. 35.This text is most likely taken from A.a fashion magazine B.a children's storybook C.a travel guide D.a scientific journal 【高二期中考试·英语第5页（共8页）】 26-T-203B 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人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。 Is there a right or wrong way on how to view art?Whether we admit it or not,we've all had that moment of uncertainty while viewing art.However,that you're not an expert doesn't mean you can't understand art.36. Determine the basics When you first see an artwork,identify some basic information about it.Try to determine its medium().If it's a painting,see if you can figure out the type of paint used.37. These observations can build a foundation for better understanding. 38 Artists are masters of drawing attention.They usually have a plan for how your vision should move across the artwork.Taking note of what you notice first is a useful way to begin your experience.For example,it is said that Renaissance artists would refer to their paintings as "machines".Their intention was to allow viewers to move their eyes smoothly through the work of art with clarity(清晰)and balance. Do some homework You don't need a background in art to appreciate it,but having some knowledge doesn't hurt,either.If a work of art catches your attention,do a little research,read an exhibition's catalogue(目录)or speak to the art team.39, Feel the artwork 40.Is the artwork artful or dramatic?How does it affect your feelings?Do you feel sad,happy or angry?These questions require immediate reactions.They can be subjective, but they are worth considering,because art is about the artist communicating and expressing ideas. A.Notice your eye movements B.Spend some time with artists C.All these can deepen your appreciation D.Recognize your feelings as you first view the art E.You can also identify the artist and when it was created F.Try these tips next time you're viewing art,and they might help you G.You'd be surprised by the knowledge you can acquire when interpreting art 第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项。 Yoshie Minamidani is a survivor of the 7.6 magnitude earthquake.It 41 Wajima in Ishikawa Prefecture and nearby regions on New Year's Day,leaving at least 202 people 42 scores missing and buildings in ruins-including Minamidani's seafood store.
