B For many parents,raising a teenager is like fighting a long war,but years go by without any clear winner.Like a border conflict between neighbouring countries,the parent teen war is about boundaries ()Where is the line between what I control and what you do? Both sides want peace,but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict.In part,this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it.From the parents'point of view,the only cause of their fight is their adolescents'complete unreasonableness.And of course,the teens see it in exactly the same way,except oppositely.Both feel trapped. 大庆铁人中学2025级高一年级上学期期中考试英语试题第5页共13页 In this article,I'll describe three no win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap.The first no win situation is quarrels over unimportant things.Examples include the colour of the teen's hair,the cleanliness of the bedroom,the preferred style of clothing,the child's failure to eat a good breakfast before school,or his tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends.Second,blaming.The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong.Third,needing to be right.It doesn't matter what the topic is-politics,the laws of physics,or the proper way to break an egg- the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong,for both wish to be considered an authority-someone who actually knows something-and therefore to command respect.Unfortunately,as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other,they'll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress. 39.Why does the author compare the parent teen war to a border conflict? A.Both can continue for generations. B.Both are about where to draw the line. C.Neither has any clear winner. D.Neither can be put to an end. 40.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean?

D.The teens agree with their parents on the cause of the conflict. 41.Why do parents and teens want to be right? A.To give orders to the other. B.To know more than the other C.To gain respect from the other. D.To get the other to behave properly. 42.What will the author most probably discuss in the paragraph that follows? 大庆铁人中学2025级高一年级上学期期中考试英语试题第6页共13页 A.Solutions to the parent teen problems. B.Examples of the parent teen war. C.Causes of the parent teen conflicts D.Future of the parent teen relationship. C At top universities,there's a phenomenon known as "Stanford Duck Syndrome(综合征)”.Like ducks,students appear to move gracefully ()However,beneath the surface,they're kicking hopelessly to keep up. Experts from Stanford's Health Services explored this troubling trend:during the day,many Stanford students are seen socializing in cafes,seemingly without any stress or the need to study. However,at night,they start studying,sometimes for the entire night,trying to maintain the image of effortless success.This comes at a high price:tiredness and anxiety are widespread.Furthermore,it leads to a common wrong idea:true talents achieve success effortlessly,while those working hard are less intelligent. In an effort to challenge this misconception（误解)，researchers designed an experiment. Participants were asked to observe a series of colors carefully while scientists tracked their brain activity throughout the process.The experiment was divided into two parts:one with easily recognized colors and the other with colors that were quite similar,requiring more effort to recognize.As the difficulty of the task increased,there was a noticeable increase in brain activity,particularly in areas linked to memory and abstract(抽象的)reasoning. The study shows that as tasks require more effort,more areas of the brain become engaged. Growth doesn't come from talent alone but from the continuous application of effort.Our brain functions like a muscle.Without effort,even our inborn talents will disappear over time This pushes us to reconsider the culture behind that might lead to this phenomenon.Instead of focusing too much on outcomes or singing high praise for inborn talents,we should emphasize the learning process and continuous improvement.By encouraging a culture that values effort,we can help students realize that intelligence is not fixed but grows through hard work.Such a change would not only reduce the pressures related to the "Stanford Duck Syndrome",but also have a big effect on personal 大庆铁人中学2025级高一年级上学期期中考试英语试题第7页共13页 development and the future of education. 43.What phenomenon does the "Stanford Duck Syndrome"probably describe? A.Choosing effort over well-being. B.Relieving (stress through social activities. C.Showing graceful images to attract others. D.Hiding hard work to appear naturally gifted. 44.How does the experiment in paragraph 3 challenge misconception? A.By showing effort activates (the brain activity. B.By proving focus improves brain function. C.By linking color recognition to intelligence. D.By connecting careful observation with talent 45.What is the author's main concern about "Stanford Duck Syndrome"? A.It values the learning process over outcomes. B.It causes stress and false ideas about success. C.It prevents students from recognizing their talents D.It makes students value socializing more than studying 46.Which of the following might the author agree with? A.Fortune prefers those with a clear mind. B.Hard work is the seed that grows into success. C.Work in silence and let success make the noise. D.Keep moving forward even when no one sees it. D Using a raised eyebrow or smile,people with speech or physical disabilities can now operate their Android-powered smartphones without using their hands,Google said on Thursday Two new tools put machine learning and front-facing cameras on smartphones to work, identifying face and eye movements.Users can look at their phone screens and select a task by smiling, raising eyebrows,opening their mouths,or looking to the left,right or up. 大庆铁人中学2025级高一年级上学期期中考试英语试题第8页共13页 The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention states that 61 million adults in the United States live with disabilities,which has pushed Google,Apple and Microsoft to make products and services more accessible to them."Every day,people use voice instructions,like Hey Google',or their hands to operate their phones,"the tech giant Google said in a blog post."However,that's not always possible for people with serious physical or speech disabilities." The changes are the result of two new features:One is called "Camera Switches",which lets people use their faces instead of taps to interact with smartphones.The other is Project Activate,a new Android application which allows people to use those gestures to start an action,like having a phone play a recorded phrase,send text,or make a call.The free Activate app is available in Australia,Britain, Canada and the United States at the Google Play Store. Apple,Google and Microsoft have kept rolling out inventions that make Internet technology more accessible to people with disabilities or who find that age has made some tasks,such as reading, more difficult.Voice-instructed digital assistants built into speakers and smartphones can enable people with sight or movement challenges to tell computers what to do.There is software that identifies text on web pages or in images and then reads it aloud,as well as automatic generation of captions that display what is said in videos.Apple built "AssistiveTouch"into the software powering its smartwatches.It lets touchscreen displays be controlled by sensing movements such as finger pinches or hand clenches. 47.What is the main role of the two new tools? A.Taking sharper photographs with a phone. B.Using smartphones with face gestures. C.Curing people's speech or physical disabilities.

Cultural robotics is part of a wider movement to make robotics more culturally inclusive.53 For example,because the Internet is mainly in English,large language models are primarily trained on English text-with the cultural biases (existing.Similarly,the move to make robots more culturally sensitive means well,but people are worried about where it could lead,considering the diverse cultural preferences across different social groups. Humans from different cultures react differently to robots.For example,different cultures have different expectations around personal space,and this affects how far they prefer robots to stand from them.54 People are more able to understand a robot if it uses the facial expressions they are familiar with. Culture is a complex concept,open to various explanations.55 To avoid designing robots based on stereotypes(刻板印象)，we will need to be more thoughtful.
