My sister and I kept on talking when I suddenly realized that the cars in front of me were stopped. I hit the brakes, but it was too late and I hit the car. I could hardly get out of the car to talk to the other driver because my leg hurt so much. To tell you the truth, I was so frightened that I didn’t know what to do. Finally a policeman came and made me sign some papers; then an ambulance took me to the hospital. They took some X-rays. Thank goodness my leg wasn’t broken, but I had to stay in hospital for several days.

With gas prices hitting $4 per gallon and floods damaging homes, the town fell into despair. A church youth group decided to spread kindness through simple acts of giving. The teenagers raised $1,700 from their church. They bought 25 gas cards and roses to give to strangers. Before starting, the group prayed to “find people needing hope”. Twenty-five teens then drove around town in a church van. High school students gave roses to people gardening or walking. Middle schoolers stood at a gas station with free gas cards. Their rule was clear: “Wait until drivers start pumping gas before approaching.” One moment touched everyone. Two 13-year-old boys noticed a young woman parked at a pump. She searched her purse and car desperately, then cried with her head on the steering wheel. The boys, following instructions, knocked gently on her window. “Here’s a free gas card,” they said. “God loves you.” The woman burst into tears again. She explained she was a single mother heading to a crucial job interview. Her gas tank was empty, and she’d lost her last $10 bill. “I thought I’d miss my chance to feed my kids,” she said. The boys returned with more gas cards and flowers. Though she initially refused, they insisted. “You’ve given me hope,” she said through tears. Later, the teens learned she got the job. For 12 years, the group continues this tradition. “We always meet people who need love,” says a leader. The acts not only help receivers but teach teens the power of kindness. One participant said, “It shows how small actions can change lives.” 24. What inspired the youth group to start their kindness project? A. To raise funds for their church. B.

The research surveyed 319 professionals across various fields, revealing troubling patterns in how technology reshapes mental processes. Participants who blindly trusted AI outputs showed 40% less critical thinking in routine tasks. “AI handles predictable work while humans manage exceptions,” explained lead researcher Dr. Elena Torres. “But this rids people of daily mental exercise, like muscles weakening without use.” The findings will be presented at a major tech conference this month. The study methodology involved detailed interviews with knowledge workers — from programmers to social workers. When asked about ChatGPT usage, many admitted skipping fact-checking for speed. One marketing specialist recalled, “I once sent an AI-written report containing false data because it looked convincing.” This “automation complacency” (自满) mirrors earlier digital phenomena. The “Google Effect” where individuals perform poorly because others have low expectations of them, leading to reduced self-confidence and lower performance, was first noted in 2011. Now, TikTok’s short videos are proven to shorten attention length, while heavy ChatGPT users report anxiety when disconnected from the tool. Younger generations appear most affected. A high school teacher shared: “Students submit AI-written essays structured without any mistakes but lacking original thought.” Data shows 68% of college applicants use AI for personal statements, often by passing self-reflection processes crucial for critical thinking development. However, the research clarifies AI isn’t inherently harmful. Engineers using AI for code debugging (代码调试) demonstrated 30% better problem-solving skills than those writing manually. “The difference lies in how we use it,” stressed Dr. Torres. “AI should assist thinking, not replace it.” The paper proposes a “balanced use” framework: ·Use AI only for information gathering, not decision-making. ·Always confirm outputs against reliable sources. ·Reserve judgment-heavy tasks for human processing. As AI becomes classroom commonplace, educators face new challenges. “We’re redesigning exams to assess thought processes instead of final answers,” said a Boston university professor. “Students must explain why they agree or disagree with AI suggestions.” 28. What is the primary concern raised by the joint study? A. AI tools frequently provide false information. B. Overusing AI may reduce human critical thinking. C. Companies lack training programs for AI adoption. D. Younger generations don’t attach importance to muscles building. 29. What example illustrates “automation complacency” in the workplace? A. A programmer debugged code 30% faster with AI. B. A teacher required handwritten outlines for homework. C. An expert gave an AI report without checking false data. D. An applicant used AI to structure his application more perfectly. 30. According to the paper, how can we balance using AI in education? A. AI gathers data; humans judge them. B. Humans process data; AI makes decisions. C. Copy AI answers straight into homework. D. Never question any AI-generated output. 31. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. ChatGPT Essays: Shortcuts or Traps B. AI Tools: Time-Savers or Brain-Weakeners C. Automation Complacency: Past and Present D. Short Videos: Teenage Favorite Relaxation 【答案】28. B 29. C 30. A 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了一项研究发现，过度依赖人工智能工具会削弱人类批判性思维，强调要正确使用人工智能。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“A joint study by Microsoft and Carnegie Mellon University warns that over-reliance on AI tools may weaken human thinking abilities.(微软和卡内基梅隆大学的一项联合研究警告说，过度依赖人工智能工具可能会削弱人类的思维能力。)”可知，这项联合研究警告说，过度依赖人工智能工具可能会削弱人类的思维能力。结合第二段中的“Participants who blindly trusted AI outputs showed 40% less critical thinking in routine tasks.(盲目信任人工智能输出的参与者在日常任务中的批判性思维减少了40%。)”可知，削弱的是批判性思维。故选B。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“One marketing specialist recalled, “I once sent an AI-written report containing false data because it looked convincing.” This “automation complacency” (自满) mirrors earlier digital phenomena.(一位营销专家回忆道：“我曾经发送过一份包含虚假数据的人工智能书面报告，因为它看起来很有说服力。”这种“自动化自满”反映了早期的数字现象。)”可知，“专家未核对数据就提交人工智能报告”是“自动化自满”的典型职场例子。故选C。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“The paper proposes a “balanced use” framework:(该论文提出了一个“平衡使用”框架)”下面的“Use AI only for information gathering, not decision-making.(仅将人工智能用于信息收集，而不是决策。)”和“Reserve judgment-heavy tasks for human processing.(将判断繁重的任务留给人工处理。)”可知，在教育中使用人工智能时，人工智能仅用于信息收集，人类必须保留判断任务，故选A。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段中的“A joint study by Microsoft and Carnegie Mellon University warns that over-reliance on AI tools may weaken human thinking abilities.(微软和卡内基梅隆大学的一项联合研究警告说，过度依赖人工智能工具可能会削弱人类的思维能力。)”和第五段中的“However, the research clarifies AI isn’t inherently harmful.(然而，这项研究澄清了人工智能本身并没有害处。)”、“AI should assist thinking, not replace it.(人工智能应该帮助思考，而不是取代思考。)”可知，本文围绕人工智能工具展开，指出过度依赖人工智能会削弱思维能力，并指出人工智能本身没有害处，应当发挥人工智能的辅助作用，B项“人工智能工具：节省时间还是削弱大脑”最适合作本文标题。故选B。 D Children often surprise us by rapidly mastering new skills — from shaky first steps to confident running, or progressing from unclear sounds to complete sentences. While children absorb knowledge like sponges (海绵), adults may struggle for years to master similar tasks. What explains this difference? Contrary (相反的) to popular belief, children don’t naturally possess magical learning abilities. Dr. Debbie Ravenscroft, an early childhood expert, notes that while young children generally perform worse than older peers in most areas, their early years offer unique advantages. A key factor is neuroplasticity — the brain’s ability to rewire itself through experience. This adaptability peaks before age five, allowing children to quickly form (or discard) habits and absorb new information. Language learning highlights this advantage. Babies naturally detect rhythms and sounds of their native language, often becoming fluent speakers by age four. Research suggests infants initially perceive subtle linguistic details lost to adults, enabling them to distinguish sounds from any global language. However, this sensitivity fades after adolescence (青春期), making early exposure critical. Beyond language, brain chemistry plays a role. A 2022 study found that during visual training, children’s brains rapidly produce GABA, a chemical that stabilizes new knowledge. Adults showed no such increase, suggesting children’s brains are biologically ready to improve learning efficiently. “Elementary-aged children learn more in less time than adults.” explains Professor Takeo Watanabe, co-author of the study. Yet, speed alone isn’t enough. Supportive environments are essential. Ravenscroft emphasizes that caring adults, access to learning materials, and paced guidance augment children’s potential. For instance, reading to babies fosters both bonding and brain development. Birth to age five is a “critical window” when children’s brains — busier than adults’ — actively interpret the world through interactions. While children’s rapid learning stems from neuroplasticity biological factors, and environmental support, rushing their progress can be harmful. Allowing time to process knowledge and nurturing curiosity, rather than forcing speed, helps build lifelong learners. As Ravenscroft advises, “An environment that respects a child’s natural pace unlocks richer opportunities for growth.” 32. What do most people commonly believe about children’s learning ability? A. Children learn quickly from professionals. B. Children generally perform worse than adults. C. Children were born with magical learning power. D. Children progress with the development of their neuroplasticity. 33. According to the 2022 study, how does GABA affect children? A. It deepens their understanding of previous knowledge. B. It strengthens their stabilization of new information. C. It biologically lowers children’s learning efficiency. D. It empowers children with the ability to distinguish sounds. 34. What does the underlined word “augment” probably mean in paragraph 5? A. Maximize. B. Disrespect. C. Ignore. D. Prove. 35. Which of the following would Dr. Ravenscroft probably agree with? A. Children need pressure and tight schedules to achieve their best results. B. Learning works best when children follow their own rhythm and curiosity. C. Faster completion of tasks is the key to successful early education. D. Parents should set weekly goals to speed up children’s language development. 【答案】32. C 33. B 34. A 35. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章分析儿童学习速度快的三大原因（神经可塑性、GABA化学物质、支持性环境），反对拔苗助长。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Contrary (相反的) to popular belief, children don’t naturally possess magical learning abilities.(与普遍的看法相反，孩子们并非天生就具备神奇的学习能力)”可知，大多数人普遍认为儿童生来就拥有神奇的学习能力。故选C。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Beyond language, brain chemistry plays a role. A 2022 study found that during visual training, children’s brains rapidly produce GABA, a chemical that stabilizes new knowledge.(除了语言因素外，大脑的化学物质也起到了作用。2022年的一项研究发现，在视觉训练过程中，儿童的大脑会迅速产生一种名为γ-氨基丁酸（GABA）的化学物质，这种物质能够帮助巩固新获得的知识)”可知，根据2022年的研究，GABA能增强儿童对新信息的吸收能力。故选B。 【34题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“For instance, reading to babies fosters both bonding and brain development.(例如，给婴儿读书既能增进亲子关系，又能促进其大脑发育)”以及上文“caring adults, access to learning materials, and paced guidance(有爱心的成年人、充足的学习资源以及循序渐进的指导)”可知，对儿童阅读能培养他们的社交和脑部发育，即有爱心的成年人、充足的学习资源以及循序渐进的指导可以最大化婴儿的潜力，故划线词意思是“最大化”。故选A。 35题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Allowing time to process knowledge and nurturing curiosity, rather than forcing speed, helps build lifelong learners. As Ravenscroft advises, “An environment that respects a child’s natural pace unlocks richer opportunities for growth.”(给予时间来消化知识、培养好奇心，而非一味追求速度，这有助于培养终身学习者。正如拉文斯克罗夫特所建议的那样：“一个尊重孩子自然节奏的环境能够为孩子的成长开启更多更丰富的机遇。”)”可知，学习效果最佳的情况是孩子按照自己的节奏和兴趣来进行学习。故选B。 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。 Getting things done isn’t working all day at 100 miles an hour. Looking for ways to do less and get more done sounds a bit contrary to expectation, but it actually makes a lot of sense. ____36____ Shut out the shallow. Smaller tasks like answering emails are “shallow work”. Try to be more aware of what your shallow tasks are, and give yourself permission to block them out for a while so you can focus on the important tasks that require “deep work”. ____37____ Bill Gates went to a remote cottage. Others, like Maya Angelou, shut themselves away to write. Call it a day. For good productivity, be strict about when your working day is over, and when you get to the end of your planned work session, ease yourself into a more relaxed state and try Cal Newport’s shutdown ceremony. ____38____ Write a short plan of how you’ll handle it tomorrow. Then close that textbook or laptop and say something out loud like ‘shutdown complete!’ It might sound silly, but it signals the end of your working thoughts for the day. After that? Have some fun. Give your mind the rest it’s earned. ____39____ Time-management master Francesco Cirillo says that for every 25 minutes of intense concentration, you should take five off to do nothing at all. The theory? Tackling a big task in focused chunks with regular breaks gives the brain time to recover and keeps your productivity high. In the five-minute breaks, don’t jump on your phone! Move around, stare out of a window. And finally, if you really need to concentrate, find some pictures of kittens and puppies first. That’s right. Research in Japan suggests that looking at lovely baby animals brings out the natural caregiver in us, and improves our ability to focus on the details. ____40____ A. Improve your productivity. B. Make your breaks smarter. C. Look through your unfinished work. D. It turns out productivity can be cute, too. E. The following tips can definitely help you. F. Set down in order the top important things you want to do in life. G. Lots of successful people have cut out the shallow to work more productively. 【答案】36. E 37. G 38. C 39. B 40. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了如何通过“少做多得”的方式提高效率。建议包括：排除琐碎的“浅层工作”，专注重要任务；设定明确的工作结束时间并执行关机仪式；采用定时休息法(如每25分钟休息5分钟)，休息时避免看手机；甚至可以通过观看可爱动物图片来提升专注力。 【36题详解】 根据上文“Getting things done isn’t working all day at 100 miles an hour. Looking for ways to do less and get more done sounds a bit contrary to expectation, but it actually makes a lot of sense.(把事情做好并不意味着要整天以每小时100英里的速度拼命工作。寻找减少工作量却能完成更多任务的方法，这听起来似乎与人们的预期相悖，但实际上却很有道理)”可知，前文提出“高效做事并非全速忙碌，‘少做多得’反而合理”的核心观点，后文紧接着分点给出具体方法（Shut out the shallow/Call it a day等）。E选项“以下建议绝对能帮到你”起到承上启下的作用，自然引出后文的实操技巧，符合总分结构的逻辑。故选E。 【37题详解】 根据上文“Smaller tasks like answering emails are “shallow work”. Try to be more aware of what your shallow tasks are, and give yourself permission to block them out for a while so you can focus on the important tasks that require “deep work”.( 像回复邮件这类较小的任务属于“浅层工作”。试着更清楚地了解哪些是你的浅层工作，并允许自己暂时将它们搁置一旁，以便能够专注于那些需要“深度工作”的重要任务)”以及后文“Bill Gates went to a remote cottage. Others, like Maya Angelou, shut themselves away to write.(比尔·盖茨去了一个偏僻的农舍。而像玛雅·安杰卢这样的作家，则选择独自一人远离人群来进行创作)”本段主题是“排除浅层工作，专注深度工作”，后文列举了比尔・盖茨（去偏远小屋）、玛雅·安杰卢（闭门写作）的例子。G选项“许多成功人士都摒弃了浅层工作，以提高工作效率”既贴合段落主题，又为后文的名人案例做了铺垫，衔接紧密。故选G。 【38题详解】 根据上文“For good productivity, be strict about when your working day is over, and when you get to the end of your planned work session, ease yourself into a more relaxed state and try Cal Newport’s shutdown ceremony.(要想提高工作效率，就要明确界定工作日的结束时间，当你的计划工作时段结束时，要让自己慢慢进入较为放松的状态，并尝试采用卡尔·纽波特所说的“收尾仪式”来结束工作)”以及后文“Write a short plan of how you’ll handle it tomorrow. Then close that textbook or laptop and say something out loud like ‘shutdown complete!’ It might sound silly, but it signals the end of your working thoughts for the day. After that? Have some fun. Give your mind the rest it’s earned.(写一份关于你明天如何处理此事的简短计划。然后合上那本教科书或关掉笔记本电脑，并大声说一句“收尾完成！”这听起来可能有些傻气，但它能标志着你当天工作思绪的结束。接下来呢？尽情享受乐趣吧。让你的大脑得到它应得的休息)”本段介绍“按时结束工作”的方法，提到“Cal Newport 的收尾仪式”，后文紧接着说“写下明天的处理计划”。C选项“浏览未完成的工作”是收尾仪式的合理步骤（先梳理未完成事项，再制定次日计划），符合逻辑流程，且与“shutdown ceremony (收尾仪式)”的内涵一致。故选C。 【39题详解】 根据后文“Time-management master Francesco Cirillo says that for every 25 minutes of intense concentration, you should take five off to do nothing at all. The theory? Tackling a big task in focused chunks with regular breaks gives the brain time to recover and keeps your productivity high. In the five-minute breaks, don’t jump on your phone! Move around, stare out of a window.(时间管理专家弗朗西斯科·奇里洛表示，每集中精力工作25分钟后，就应该休息5分钟，完全不做任何事情。其原理在于：将一项重大任务分成小块进行专注处理，并适时休息，能让大脑得到恢复，从而保持高效率。在这5分钟的休息时间内，不要立刻拿起手机！可以活动活动身体，或者望向窗外看看)”可知，本段核心内容是“每专注25分钟就休息5分钟，休息时不看手机，而是活动或远眺”，强调“如何聪明地休息”以保持高效。B选项“让你的休息更明智”作为段落主旨句，精准概括了后文的休息方法，统领全段内容。故选B。 【40题详解】 根据上文“And finally, if you really need to concentrate, find some pictures of kittens and puppies first. That’s right. Research in Japan suggests that looking at lovely baby animals brings out the natural caregiver in us, and improves our ability to focus on the details.(最后，如果您确实需要集中注意力，那么首先可以找一些小猫和小狗的图片来看。没错。日本的研究表明，看着可爱的幼小动物会激发我们内心的照顾本能，并提高我们专注于细节的能力)”可知，前文提到“研究表明看可爱的小动物能提升专注力”，D选项“原来高效也可以很可爱”既呼应了 “kittens and puppies (小猫小狗)”的“可爱”属性，又总结了该方法的核心亮点，语气轻松且贴合语境，为全文收尾。故选D。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;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入空白处的最佳选项。 I have a neurological (神经系统的) condition.

One day, I was talking to my mom about summer activities. “I want to do everything,” I said. I want to be a junior instructor for the Little Dragons Karate (空手道) Camp. I have to be on the summer swim team. And my friend Ollie and I already have two customers for our dog-walking business. “Everything is a lot,” my mom frowned. “You might be biting off more than you can chew.” “Don’t worry,” I grinned. “I have strong teeth!” My mom smiled back, “In this case, it’s your organizational skills, not your teeth, that need to be strong.” “No problem!” I claimed. The first week really was no problem. Ollie was out of town and the karate camp hadn’t started, so my swim stuff was all I needed to worry about. The next week was great too. I swam my fastest freestyle time yet, and a Little Dragon at the karate camp told me I was his favorite teacher ever! I did learn, though, that staying organized with two activities is harder than with one. My backpack was already stuffed with a towel and swim things, so I had to find a different backpack for my karate gear (装备). Riding my bike from the karate camp to the pool with two backpacks was a little bit of a challenge. But I still had it under control until Ollie got back. “We’re late getting our business together!” he said. “We’ll have to spend every spare minute preparing.” “But I don’t have any spare minutes!” I said. “Did you forget we agreed to walk Alfie every Saturday? And Muffin on Tuesdays at 4:00?” Ollie asked. I couldn’t let Ollie down, so I picked up a third backpack and filled it with dog toys, treats and plastic bags. “There!” I said. “I’m all set.” 注意： 1．续写词数应为150个左右; 2．请按如下格式作答。 However, it didn’t take long for everything to turn into a mess. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I hated admitting I was wrong, but I knew I needed to change. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 However, it didn’t take long for everything to turn into a mess. On Tuesday, I rushed from karate camp to the pool, only to realize I had brought the wrong backpack — my swimsuit was missing! Then, I completely forgot about Muffin’s walk until Ollie called me at 4:30, upset. The next day, I wore my karate uniform to swim practice by mistake. My mom raised an eyebrow but said nothing. I was exhausted, late everywhere, and my three backpacks became a symbol of my chaos. I hated admitting I was wrong, but I knew I needed to change. That evening, I sat down with my mom and Ollie. I decided to quit the swim team for the rest of the summer and focus on karate camp and the dog-walking business. To my surprise, Ollie offered to handle the Tuesday walks if I took Saturdays. I have learned that being busy isn’t bad — but being overwhelmed helps no one. Now, with just two backpacks and a clearer schedule, I finally enjoy my summer. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者暑假非常忙碌，安排了空手道夏令营、游泳队训练和遛狗生意三项活动，结果因无法兼顾而陷入混乱，最终作者意识到需要做出改变，调整了计划，从而重新享受暑假的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然而，没过多久，一切都变得一团糟。”可知，第一段可描写作者因安排过多活动而导致的混乱情况，如带错背包、忘记遛狗时间、穿错衣服等。 ②由第二段首句内容“我讨厌承认我错了，但我知道我需要改变。”可知，第二段可描写作者意识到问题后，与妈妈和搭档商量调整计划，减少活动安排，从而重新享受暑假的情况。 2. 续写线索：带错背包→忘记遛狗时间→穿错衣服→意识到问题→与妈妈和搭档商量→调整计划→重新享受暑假 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①带错背包：bring the wrong backpack/take the incorrect bag ②举起：raise/lift ③决定：decide/make a decision 情绪类 ①讨厌：hate/dislike ②惊讶：surprise/astonishment ③疲惫：exhausted/tired out 【点睛】[高分句型1] On Tuesday, I rushed from karate camp to the pool, only to realize I had brought the wrong backpack — my swimsuit was missing! （运用不定式“only to realize”作结果状语和省略that的宾语从句。） [高分句型2] To my surprise, Ollie offered to handle the Tuesday walks if I took Saturdays.（运用了if引导的条件状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025年秋季黄冈市部分高中高二年级期中考试英语 本试卷共10页。全卷满分150分。考试用时120分钟。 ★祝考试顺利★ 注意事项： 1．答题前，先将自己的姓名、准考证号、考场号、座位号填写在试卷和答题卡上，并将准考证号条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2．选择题的作答：每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑，写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 3．非选择题的作答：用黑色签字笔直接答在答题卡上对应的答题区域内。写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 4．考试结束后，请将答题卡上交。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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。 例：How much is the shirt?

With gas prices hitting $4 per gallon and floods damaging homes, the town fell into despair. A church youth group decided to spread kindness through simple acts of giving. The teenagers raised $1700 from their church. They bought 25 gas cards and roses to give to strangers. Before starting, the group prayed to “find people needing hope”. Twenty-five teens then drove around town in a church van. High school students gave roses to people gardening or walking. Middle schoolers stood at a gas station with free gas cards. Their rule was clear: “Wait until drivers start pumping gas before approaching.” One moment touched everyone. Two 13-year-old boys noticed a young woman parked at a pump. She searched her purse and car desperately, then cried with her head on the steering wheel. The boys, following instructions, knocked gently on her window. “Here’s a free gas card,” they said. “God loves you.” The woman burst into tears again. She explained she was a single mother heading to a crucial job interview. Her gas tank was empty, and she’d lost her last $10 bill. “I thought I’d miss my chance to feed my kids,” she said. The boys returned with more gas cards and flowers. Though she initially refused, they insisted. “You’ve given me hope,” she said through tears. Later, the teens learned she got the job. For 12 years, the group continues this tradition. “We always meet people who need love,” says a leader. The acts not only help receivers but teach teens the power of kindness. One participant said, “It shows how small actions can change lives.” 24. What inspired the youth group to start their kindness project? A. To raise funds for their church. B. To bring hope to people in despair. C. To gain popularity in the community. D. To address the problem of unemployment. 25. How did the single mother first react when receiving more gas cards? A. She accepted gas cards and showed her gratitude. B. She was impressed to tears but turned down the kindness. C. She blamed the teenagers for disturbing her job interview. D. She ignored the boys and continued complaining about her bad fortune. 26. Which words best describe the teenagers in the story? A. Caring and helpful. B. Creative but impatient. C. Selfless and grateful. D. Responsible but rude. 27. What message does the story mainly convey? A. Natural disasters often lead to community unity. B. Teenagers should focus on religious activities. C. Small acts of kindness can have profound impacts. D. Financial aid is essential for single parents. C A joint study by Microsoft and Carnegie Mellon University warns that over-reliance on AI tools may weaken human thinking abilities. The research surveyed 319 professionals across various fields, revealing troubling patterns in how technology reshapes mental processes. Participants who blindly trusted AI outputs showed 40% less critical thinking in routine tasks. “AI handles predictable work while humans manage exceptions,” explained lead researcher Dr. Elena Torres. “But this rids people of daily mental exercise, like muscles weakening without use.” The findings will be presented at a major tech conference this month. The study methodology involved detailed interviews with knowledge workers — from programmers to social workers. When asked about ChatGPT usage, many admitted skipping fact-checking for speed. One marketing specialist recalled, “I once sent an AI-written report containing false data because it looked convincing.” This “automation complacency” (自满) mirrors earlier digital phenomena. The “Google Effect” where individuals perform poorly because others have low expectations of them, leading to reduced self-confidence and lower performance, was first noted in 2011. Now, TikTok’s short videos are proven to shorten attention length, while heavy ChatGPT users report anxiety when disconnected from the tool. Younger generations appear most affected. A high school teacher shared: “Students submit AI-written essays structured without any mistakes but lacking original thought.” Data shows 68% of college applicants use AI for personal statements, often by passing self-reflection processes crucial for critical thinking development. However, the research clarifies AI isn’t inherently harmful. Engineers using AI for code debugging (代码调试) demonstrated 30% better problem-solving skills than those writing manually. “The difference lies in how we use it,” stressed Dr. Torres. “AI should assist thinking, not replace it.” The paper proposes a “balanced use” framework: ·Use AI only for information gathering, not decision-making. ·Always confirm outputs against reliable sources. ·Reserve judgment-heavy tasks for human processing. As AI becomes classroom commonplace, educators face new challenges. “We’re redesigning exams to assess thought processes instead of final answers,” said a Boston university professor. “Students must explain why they agree or disagree with AI suggestions.” 28. What is the primary concern raised by the joint study? A. AI tools frequently provide false information. B. Overusing AI may reduce human critical thinking. C. Companies lack training programs for AI adoption. D. Younger generations don’t attach importance to muscles building. 29. What example illustrates “automation complacency” in the workplace? A. A programmer debugged code 30% faster with AI. B. A teacher required handwritten outlines for homework. C. An expert gave an AI report without checking false data. D. An applicant used AI to structure his application more perfectly. 30. According to the paper, how can we balance using AI in education? A. AI gathers data; humans judge them. B. Humans process data; AI makes decisions. C. Copy AI answers straight into homework. D. Never question any AI-generated output. 31. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. ChatGPT Essays: Shortcuts or Traps B. AI Tools: Time-Savers or Brain-Weakeners C. Automation Complacency: Past and Present D. Short Videos: Teenage Favorite Relaxation D Children often surprise us by rapidly mastering new skills — from shaky first steps to confident running, or progressing from unclear sounds to complete sentences. While children absorb knowledge like sponges (海绵), adults may struggle for years to master similar tasks. What explains this difference? Contrary (相反的) to popular belief, children don’t naturally possess magical learning abilities. Dr. Debbie Ravenscroft, an early childhood expert, notes that while young children generally perform worse than older peers in most areas, their early years offer unique advantages. A key factor is neuroplasticity — the brain’s ability to rewire itself through experience. This adaptability peaks before age five, allowing children to quickly form (or discard) habits and absorb new information. Language learning highlights this advantage. Babies naturally detect rhythms and sounds of their native language, often becoming fluent speakers by age four. Research suggests infants initially perceive subtle linguistic details lost to adults, enabling them to distinguish sounds from any global language. However, this sensitivity fades after adolescence (青春期), making early exposure critical. Beyond language, brain chemistry plays a role. A 2022 study found that during visual training, children’s brains rapidly produce GABA, a chemical that stabilizes new knowledge. Adults showed no such increase, suggesting children’s brains are biologically ready to improve learning efficiently. “Elementary-aged children learn more in less time than adults.” explains Professor Takeo Watanabe, co-author of the study. Yet, speed alone isn’t enough. Supportive environments are essential. Ravenscroft emphasizes that caring adults, access to learning materials, and paced guidance augment children’s potential. For instance, reading to babies fosters both bonding and brain development. Birth to age five is a “critical window” when children’s brains — busier than adults’ — actively interpret the world through interactions. While children’s rapid learning stems from neuroplasticity, biological factors, and environmental support, rushing their progress can be harmful. Allowing time to process knowledge and nurturing curiosity, rather than forcing speed, helps build lifelong learners. As Ravenscroft advises, “An environment that respects a child’s natural pace unlocks richer opportunities for growth.” 32. What do most people commonly believe about children’s learning ability? A. Children learn quickly from professionals. B. Children generally perform worse than adults. C. Children were born with magical learning power. D. Children progress with the development of their neuroplasticity. 33. According to the 2022 study, how does GABA affect children? A. It deepens their understanding of previous knowledge. B. It strengthens their stabilization of new information. C. It biologically lowers children’s learning efficiency. D. It empowers children with the ability to distinguish sounds. 34. What does the underlined word “augment” probably mean in paragraph 5? A. Maximize. B. Disrespect. C. Ignore. D. Prove. 35. Which of the following would Dr. Ravenscroft probably agree with? A Children need pressure and tight schedules to achieve their best results. B. Learning works best when children follow their own rhythm and curiosity. C. Faster completion of tasks is the key to successful early education. D. Parents should set weekly goals to speed up children’s language development. 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。 Getting things done isn’t working all day at 100 miles an hour. Looking for ways to do less and get more done sounds a bit contrary to expectation, but it actually makes a lot of sense. ____36____ Shut out the shallow. Smaller tasks like answering emails are “shallow work”. Try to be more aware of what your shallow tasks are, and give yourself permission to block them out for a while so you can focus on the important tasks that require “deep work”. ____37____ Bill Gates went to a remote cottage. Others, like Maya Angelou, shut themselves away to write. Call it a day. For good productivity, be strict about when your working day is over, and when you get to the end of your planned work session, ease yourself into a more relaxed state and try Cal Newport’s shutdown ceremony. ____38____ Write a short plan of how you’ll handle it tomorrow. Then close that textbook or laptop and say something out loud like ‘shutdown complete!’ It might sound silly, but it signals the end of your working thoughts for the day. After that? Have some fun. Give your mind the rest it’s earned. ____39____ Time-management master Francesco Cirillo says that for every 25 minutes of intense concentration, you should take five off to do nothing at all. The theory? Tackling a big task in focused chunks with regular breaks gives the brain time to recover and keeps your productivity high. In the five-minute breaks, don’t jump on your phone! Move around, stare out of a window. And finally, if you really need to concentrate, find some pictures of kittens and puppies first. That’s right. Research in Japan suggests that looking at lovely baby animals brings out the natural caregiver in us, and improves our ability to focus on the details. ____40____ A. Improve your productivity. B. Make your breaks smarter. C. Look through your unfinished work. D. It turns out productivity can be cute, too. E. The following tips can definitely help you. F. Set down in order the top important things you want to do in life. G. Lots of successful people have cut out the shallow to work more productively. 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;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入空白处的最佳选项。 I have a neurological (神经系统的) condition.

One day, I was talking to my mom about summer activities. “I want to do everything,” I said. I want to be a junior instructor for the Little Dragons Karate (空手道) Camp. I have to be on the summer swim team. And my friend Ollie and I already have two customers for our dog-walking business. “Everything is a lot,” my mom frowned. “You might be biting off more than you can chew.” “Don’t worry,” I grinned. “I have strong teeth!” My mom smiled back, “In this case, it’s your organizational skills, not your teeth, that need to be strong.” “No problem!” I claimed. The first week really was no problem. Ollie was out of town and the karate camp hadn’t started, so my swim stuff was all I needed to worry about. The next week was great too. I swam my fastest freestyle time yet, and a Little Dragon at the karate camp told me I was his favorite teacher ever! I did learn, though, that staying organized with two activities is harder than with one. My backpack was already stuffed with a towel and swim things, so I had to find a different backpack for my karate gear (装备). Riding my bike from the karate camp to the pool with two backpacks was a little bit of a challenge. But I still had it under control until Ollie got back. “We’re late getting our business together!” he said. “We’ll have to spend every spare minute preparing.” “But I don’t have any spare minutes!” I said. “Did you forget we agreed to walk Alfie every Saturday? And Muffin on Tuesdays at 4:00?” Ollie asked. I couldn’t let Ollie down, so I picked up a third backpack and filled it with dog toys, treats and plastic bags. “There!” I said. “I’m all set.” 注意： 1．续写词数应为150个左右; 2．请按如下格式作答。 However, it didn’t take long for everything to turn into a mess. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I hated admitting I was wrong, but I knew I needed to change. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $2025年秋季高二年级期中考试英语科听力部分。第一节听下面5段对话，每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3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。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。Have you decided what you're wearing to the party?
