Lubbock Lubbock is a small town with a big heart for art. It’s best known as the birthplace of Buddy Holly, one of the most important figures in rock and roll. The town honors Holly with street art featuring his famous glasses, and a performance center named after him — the Buddy Holly Hall. His influence can be seen all over the town. Shreveport In the 1940s and 50s, Shreveport was a major center of American music. It was home to the Louisiana Hayride, a radio show where music stars like Elvis Presley, Hank Williams, and Johnny Cash began their careers (职业).The show was so influential that it was called “The Cradle of the Stars”, and it became second only to the Grand Ole Opry in importance for country music. Clarksdale Clarksdale is a small town in the Mississippi Delta where the sound of blues music started. It’s famous as the place where musicians like Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, and Howlin’ Wolf grew up. It seems like you could hear blues playing around every corner, seven nights a week. Macon Macon is a town full of history and music, with a mix of Southern charm (魅力) and modern culture. It’s known as “the city where soul (灵魂) lives”, and that’s true because it’s where both Little Richard, the “Architect of Rock and Roll”, and Otis Redding, the “King of Soul”, grew up. Visitors can tour the Capricorn Sound Studios, where Southern rock music was born. 1. Which town has a close connection to Buddy Holly? A. Macon. B. Lubbock. C. Shreveport. D. Clarksdale. 2. What is Clarksdale famous for? A. Jazz music. B. Blues music. C. Rock and roll. D. Country music. 3. Where will you go if you want to explore the history of Southern rock music? A. The Grand Ole Opry. B. The Louisiana Hayride. C. The Buddy Holly Hall. D. The Capricorn Sound Studios. B Zach, a fourth grader, sits alone in the school cafeteria. At break, he skirts the edges (边缘) of the playground, not joining in. He doesn’t play sports, so he doesn’t mix well with the other boys in his class. His mother is concerned about that. At most schools, this child might become lonely and even sad. But at Graham Elementary School in Naperville, Illinois, teachers moved him around to different groups for class projects until he clicked with another boy. “Suddenly, Zach had a best friend. They would hang out together, and help each other with homework,” says Zach’s mother. Sue Clendening, the principal of Graham Elementary, believes that friendships are just as important as schoolwork. For years she had watched children get their feelings hurt at break and they couldn’t focus on their lessons afterward. Two years ago, she decided to do something about it. Clendening surveyed the students to learn who had friends and who didn’t. She found that 30 percent of the children in fourth grade said they were often alone on the playground because no one wanted to play with them. Some students even wrote their own names on the survey under the question, “Who most needs a friend?” Clendening shared the survey results with her teachers. She flagged lonely kids and got teachers to put them in groups of children where they might make friends. The school also started after-school clubs like book club and chess club so that children could find like-minded people. Each week, a lunch group brings together shy children and more social children to talk with a social worker. “I believe social skills can be taught the same way math can be taught,” says Clendening. “A growing body of research points to social skills being as important as academic (学业的) skills for future success.” 4. Why does Zach’s mother feel concerned? A. He has trouble making friends. B. He forms the habit of playing outside. C. He prefers to go to school alone. D. He spends too much time on homework. 5. What did Clendening’s survey show? A. Some students were left out and felt lonely. B. Few children had an interest in school activities. C. Most children were unhappy with their grades. D. 30 percent of students wanted to play in groups. 6. What is paragraph 6 mainly about? A. How the children feel about social ties. B. How the teachers share the survey results. C. How the school draws out lonely kids. D. How the social workers help shy children. 7. What do Clendening’s words suggest? A. She pays more attention to math lessons. B. Friendship building can hardly be taught. C. Academic skills are the key to one’s success. D. She values social skills as part of education. C Wildfires have served Mother Nature for thousands of years, shaping the land, helping forests and grasslands grow, and clearing out weak or dead trees. But Americans have traditionally viewed such fires as a menace, and worked hard to stop them. Today, amid near-universal agreements on the need to protect communities and forests, many experts have developed a new appreciation for wildfires’ historic and key role in nature. But the value of fire may be hard to explain to a family that built its dream home near a forest. “It’s too late to ask everyone to leave,” said Tom Scott, a wildlife specialist based at the University of California, Riverside. “But wildfires are not always a disaster because they will certainly happen. As more people build homes near forests, the number of houses destroyed by wildfires has doubled in the last ten years.” Firefighters’ success could worsen the problem, some experts warned, as putting out small wildfires is like repeatedly applying Band-Aids. While it’s necessary to put out fires that threaten communities, this may create a cycle (循环) where fires keep getting worse. “Fire is a natural part of many ecosystems,” said Colorado State University professor Phil Omi. “Many forest types have developed with fire and, a lot of times, fire has acted as a cleansing agent by removing dead plants, weak or diseased organisms, and more, which helps the forest stay healthy.” That process continued in the United States until 1910, when large wildfires hit communities in Michigan and Wisconsin. “Out of that came the reasoning that all fires were bad, and we had to put them out,” Omi said. As more roads were built and people moved closer to nature in the 20th century, the risk of wildfires grew. “We can live in these places, but we ought to understand that some risk goes along with it,” Scott said. “Fighting wildfires is not a battle (战斗) to be fought, but a storm to be weathered.” 8. What does the underlined word “menace” in the first paragraph mean? A. Method. B. Message. C. Danger. D. Chance. 9. Why did some experts warn against putting out small wildfires? A. It may lead to larger fires later. B. It will cause harm to local plants. C. Small fires are easy to control. D. Small fires result in little damage. 10. What is Omi’s attitude toward wildfires? A. Worried. B. Positive. C. Uncaring. D. Doubtful. 11. What does Scott intend to stress in the last paragraph? A. Living near a forest is ill-considered. B. Fighting wildfires is a battle to be fought. C. More fire prevention measures are needed. D. People have to learn to live with wildfires. D Out of every 100 datasets produced, about 80 stay within the lab, 20 are shared but seldom reused, fewer than two meet FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) standards, and only one typically leads to new findings. This means slower progress in areas like cancer treatment, climate models, and studies that can’t be repeated. To solve this problem, the open-science publisher Frontiers has introduced Frontiers FAIR Data Management, the first AI-powered research data service. It is designed to make data both reusable and properly credited by combining all necessary steps — curation, checks, AI-ready formatting, peer review, an interactive portal, certification, and hosting — into one single process. The goal is to ensure that today’s research translates into faster advances in technology. FAIR2 builds on the FAIR principles with an open framework that ensures every dataset is AI-compatible (兼容的) and reusable. It’s the first system of its kind and comes at a time when research is growing rapidly, and AI is reshaping how discoveries are made. FAIR turns high-level principles into a real system that can have a measurable impact. Dr. Kamila Markram, co-founder and CEO of Frontiers, explains, “Ninety percent of scientific data gets lost. With Frontiers FAIR, no data or discovery will be wasted, which can push science forward.” Work that once required months of effort-from organizing and checking data to final outputs (输出) — is now completed in minutes by the AI-powered research data service. Each part is reviewed for quality and provides clear summaries, making the data easier to understand and compatible across different fields of research. These outputs ensure that data is protected and reusable, speeding up discoveries while giving researchers the recognition they deserve. By making data more visible and accessible, FAIR supports responsible reuse by scientists, policymakers, communities, and even AI systems, allowing researchers and society to make new breakthroughs faster. 12. What does the author point out at the beginning of the text? A. Datasets are difficult to store and organize. B. It is quite easy to find research data online. C. Scientists are unwilling to share their data. D. Most research data is never shared or reused. 13. What is the aim of the AI-powered research data service? A. To drive scientific discoveries. B. To turn language models into tools. C. To limit data sharing for safety. D. To make AI accessible to the public. 14. Which of the following best describes Frontiers FAIR? A. Time-wasting. B. Hair-raising. C. Highly productive. D. Unnecessarily costly. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Role of Data Privacy in Research B. Unlocking the Power of Research Data C. The Future of Scientific Data Storage D. Bringing People Closer to Each Other 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。 How to Manage Your Stress If you often feel stressed, try changing the way you think about it. ____16____.

Because of this, she had trouble waking up early and would sometimes be late for school. One morning, she walked into class late again, and Mr. Wells, her English teacher, became very angry. He looked at Sally and said firmly, “If you’re late again tomorrow, I will call your father.” Sally felt nervous because her parents were very strict. She knew they wouldn’t be happy if that happened. She said sorry to Mr. Wells and promised she would be on time the next day. Determined to keep her promise, Sally woke up very early the next morning. She didn’t want to risk being late again. She quickly got dressed, grabbed her school bag, and rushed out the door without having breakfast. By the time the bell rang, she had already sat at her desk, feeling proud of herself. However, when the door opened, it wasn’t Mr. Wells who entered the room — it was Miss Jones. Mr. Wells was on a business trip, and Miss Jones was filling in for him that day. Sally was disappointed. She had worked so hard to be on time, but it didn’t seem to matter in the end. The next day, Sally woke up even earlier. She didn’t want to take any chances, so she ate a quick breakfast and left for school with enough time to spare. As she walked near the school gate, she noticed something on the ground. It was a wallet. She picked it up and decided to wait for the owner. A moment later, Sally checked the time and heard the first bell ringing. She knew she had to hurry, but she didn’t want to ignore the wallet. She thought for a while, and then decided, “I should turn it in to the headmaster first.” She rushed to the headmaster’s office and handed it in. 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。 When Sally reached the classroom, Mr. Wells had already started the class. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As the bell rang for break, the headmaster walked into the classroom. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 高一英语 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。每段对话读两遍。 例：How much is the shirt?

Mr. Wells, who had returned from his business trip, looked at her and said, “You promised to be on time, but you’re late again!” Sally was about to explain, but Mr. Wells interrupted her, “No excuses, Sally! I don’t want to hear it.” Tears began to roll down her cheeks as she thought, “This is so unfair! What will my parents say if Mr. Wells really calls them? How will they punish me?” As the bell rang for break, the headmaster walked into the classroom. He was holding the wallet Sally had found. He walked up to Mr. Wells and asked, “Is this your wallet?” Mr. Wells nodded, surprised. The headmaster continued, “You should thank Sally. She picked this wallet up, waited at the gate and handed it in to me this morning.” At that moment, Mr. Wells realized he had made a mistake. He felt embarrassed but also grateful. He turned to Sally and said, “I’m terribly sorry. I still need to call your parents, but this time, I will tell them how warm-hearted you are.” 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
