During this time, you’ll need to be fully available and distraction-free.

I was so excited but also a little nervous because my French was not good. One hot afternoon, after exploring the city, I felt really tired. I wanted to tell my French friend, Claire, “I am a little tired.” I carefully said the words I’d learned: “Je suis un pue fatigue.” But Claire burst out laughing. My face felt hot. What had I done wrong? Claire explained, “In French, there are words that sound similar but have very different meanings. ‘peu’ means ‘a little,’ but if you pronounce it differently, it can sound like ‘pue’, which means ‘stinks’ — like something smells bad. So, instead of saying you needed a rest, it sounded like you were saying you smelled bad and were tired” This awkward (尴尬的) moment was a real eye-opener for me. It made me realize just how daunting pronunciation can be in a foreign language. Even small differences in pronunciation can completely change the meaning of what you’re trying to say. The same is true in English, for example, “ship” (a large boat) and “sheep” (a woolly animal) sound very similar, but they mean totally different things. Now, I pay extra attention to how words sound and what they mean. And if I mix them up again? I’ll just laugh along. After all, laughing is part of learning — even if it’s a bit stinky sometimes. 4. Why was the author nervous about his holiday in France? A. He was poor at French. B. He never went abroad. C. He had no friends there. D. He was in short of money. 5. What awkward moment did the author meet? A. He got a wrong person. B. He made a pronunciation mistake. C. He was tricked by the locals. D. He spelt a word incorrectly. 6. What does the underlined word “daunting” in paragraph 4 most probably mean? A. Easy. B. Natural. C. Difficult. D. Clear. 7. How did the author’s experience in France affect him? A. He smelled bad and was tired. B. He hated learning foreign languages. C. He no longer considered Claire as a friend. D. He became open to mistakes in language learning. C After a long teaching day, I saw someone searching for a lost key between the seats on a crowded train. Strangely, my first thought was to ask ChatGPT. This surprised me and made me wonder: What did I think of AI? Could it really help? Since ChatGPT appeared, teachers have different views. At first, I found it very useful. It offered me lesson ideas and saved me time. Students used it to understand difficult topics and get writing tips. But I noticed problems. One student couldn’t remember facts ChatGPT gave him. Another used it to make his writing sound smarter, but lost his own style. Using AI for work meant students missed chances to improve their own ideas by revising. I told them: Use AI to help improve your writing, not to do it for you. I also started using pen and paper more for lesson planning. It was slower, but my ideas felt more real and truly mine. This reminded me that the process of thinking is often more important than just the final result. And as a result, I’d managed to think more clearly. In a world increasingly led by speed, I learned the best ideas often need time and focus. I’m not against AI, but I need to adjust(调节) its role in my life. My goal is to keep what’s important in teaching: curiosity, critical thinking, and solving problems without always taking shortcuts. I hope my students will, too. 8. What did the author do when seeing someone looking for a key on the train? A. He reported it to the police. B. He joined in the search for it. C. He turned a blind eye to it. D. He turned to ChatGPT for help. 9. Why does the author mention his students in paragraph 3? A. To tell they are smart. B. To tell how AI helps them. C. To show the problems AI brings. D. To prove his teaching job successful. 10. What did the author think of planning his lessons by using pen and paper more? A. It wasted too much of his time. B. It was good for his thinking. C. It allowed him to get answers quickly. D. It led to losing good teaching methods. 11. What is the author’s attitude towards using AI? A. Careful. B. Hopeless. C. Unclear. D. Carefree. D Like many people, I’m always trying to balance tough work deadlines, cleaning the house, and the endless messages on my phone. Last month, I felt really tired all the time. When I went for a regular (常规的) health check, I found out my blood pressure was getting too high. The doctor suggested that I take a few days off to go on a vacation. Modern life is often busy, which makes many people feel stressed (有压力的). Studies show that stress is a common problem around the world. The World Health Organization says it affects millions of people everywhere. Planning a trip can be a good way to relax and feel better. Dr. Jane Smith, a psychologist from Cornell University, says, “You don’t need to travel far or stay away for long. What’s important is to step away from your routine (日常事务) and take a break. Visiting new places and trying new things can make you happy and excited.” Dr. Smith and her team carried out a study involving over 400 participants (参与者) who took short vacations. They assessed the participants’ energy levels both before and after their trips through detailed questionnaires (调查表). The results showed that 94% of the participants reported feeling more energetic after their vacations. This suggests that taking time off, even for short periods, can greatly improve one’s focus and creativity upon returning to work. “Taking a trip is important, no matter how busy life gets. It’s good for your mind and body,” Dr. Smith says. 12. What does the author want to show by telling his story? A. People seldom see a doctor. B. People get tired after a trip. C. People hardly go on a vacation. D. People suffer stress from their busy life. 13. What is important for a trip according to Dr. Smith? A. Finding a quiet city. B. Choosing a faraway place. C. Staying away for a long time. D. Stopping regular activities for a while. 14. What were participants asked to do during the study? A. Answer questions. B. Record their daily life. C. Pick their travelling places. D. Visit the hospital for checks regularly. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Modern Life Is Stressful B. What You Should Do During a Trip C. Mind and Body Can Be Freed by a Trip D. How People Balance Life and Work 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。 High school is an extremely important period in a teenager’s life, marked by academics (学业), social experiences, and personal growth.

When we entered the playground, some children came up. “What a funny old man!” one boy said, making a face. “Hey, fatty,” another one shouted. The children laughed at us. I didn’t say a word. I just took my grandson out of the school gate. “Wonderful I don’t have to go to school!” my grandson said. “You do, but not this one,” I replied. “I’ll find you a school myself.” I took my grandson back to my own house and asked his grandmother to look after him. Then I went out to look for a school myself. Every time I got to a school, I would go into the playground and wait for the children to come out at break time. In some schools, the children completely ignored me, and in others, they made fun of me. When this happened, I felt really sad. I even thought about giving up, but I knew I had to keep trying for my grandson. Finally, I went into the very small playground of a very small school and stood tiredly against the wall. The bell rang, and the children got out into the playground. To my surprise, one of them said, “Sir, are you all right? Shall I get you something to drink?” Another one added,“We’ve got a bench(长凳)in the playground—come and sit down.” The children gathered around me, showing concern and kindness. I was touched by those children’s words. Soon a young teacher came to the playground. I greeted him and said,“Finally, I’ ve found the best school for my grandson in town.” The young teacher smiled warmly and said,“Welcome, sir. I’m glad our students were kind to you.” 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。 Curiously, the young teacher asked,“What brings you here?” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A few days later, my grandson started school there. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 灵武市第一中学高一年级上学期期中考试 英语试题 考生注意： 1.本试卷分选择题和非选择题两部分。满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2.答题前，考生务必用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔将密封线内项目填写清楚。 3.考生作答时，请将答案答在答题卡上。选择题每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑；非选择题请用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔在答题卡上各题的答题区域内作答，超出答题区域书写的答案无效，在试题卷、草稿纸上作答无效。 4.本卷命题范围：至外研版必修第一册Unit3。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 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。 1.

I’m writing to you because I’m having a hard time communicating with my parents. We seem to be in different worlds. They are constantly worried about my academic performance and future, while I have my own dreams and interests. Every time I try to talk about them, they either dismiss them or force me to focus on what they think is important. This has led to many arguments and made the atmosphere at home very tense. I’m really confused and don’t know how to make them understand me. I hope you can offer some practical advice to help me improve this situation. Yours sincerely, Li Hua 第二节(满分25分) 【47题答案】 【答案】One possible version: Curiously, the young teacher asked, “What brings you here?” I explained my journey, telling him about the other schools and how the children had treated me. The teacher nodded thoughtfully and said,“Our school values respect and kindness. We teach our students to treat everyone with care.” I felt a sense of relief and hope. I knew this was the right place for my grandson. “Can my grandson join your school?” I asked. The teacher replied, “Of course I’ll arrange everything for you. We will be happy to have him.” A few days later, my grandson started school there. He was nervous on the first day, but the children welcomed him warmly. They played together, shared stories, and helped each other. When my grandson came home, he told me, “I love my new school The kids are so nice, and the teachers are great.”I smiled proudly, knowing I had made the right choice. I had found a school where my grandson could grow and learn in a caring environment. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
