The prize is meant to encourage new ideas and rapid action to help protect the planet. Below are parts of this year’s prize-winning projects in each category. Protect and Restore Nature Kheyti won the prize for protecting and restoring nature with its “Greenhouse-in-a-box” idea. Kheyti is already working with 1, 000 farmers across India, which is one of the most climate-affected countries in the world. The company says the greenhouses allow farmers to use 90% less water and produce seven times as much food. Kheyti hopes to get its greenhouses to 50,000 farmers by 2027. Clean Our Air Charlot Magayi won the prize for cleaning the air. Ms. Magayi developed a stove (炉子) that uses a fuel that’s cheaper and pollutes far less than charcoal stoves. Currently, over 200,000 of her Clean Stoves are being used in Kenya. Build a Waste-Free World A London-based company called Notpla(for “Not Plastic”)won the prize for building a waste-free world. They’ve created a plastic substitute(替代品)from plants found in the ocean. Unlike most plastic, their products break down naturally with no microplastics. Notpla believes their products can help end the plastic pollution that’s filling landfills and polluting oceans. Fix Our Climate The Earthshot Prize for working toward fixing our climate went to a company called 44.01 from Oman. 44.01 has come up with a way to turn polluting carbon dioxide(CO2)into a rock called peridotite. Once the CO2 has been turned into rock, it can no longer be released into the atmosphere again. The method that 44.01 uses is fast, cheap and permanent. 1. What is the aim of the Earthshot Prize? A. To offer practical advice on global warming. B. To find solutions to the environmental problems. C. To develop a strategic partnership with all parties. D. To encourage literary creations of the British people. 2. Where are Kheyti’s greenhouses widely used? A. In India. B. In Kenya. C. In the UK. D. In Oman. 3. What do Charlot Magayi and 44.01 have in common? A. They want to build a waste-free world. B. Their projects are directly good for farmers. C. Their achievements benefit the air cleaning. D. They use plants from the ocean in their products. 【答案】1. B 2. A 3. C 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇应用文。英国威廉王子宣布今年“为地球奋斗奖”的获奖者本文主要介绍了今年各类别获奖项目的部分内容。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The prize is meant to encourage new ideas and rapid action to help protect the planet.(该奖旨在鼓励新的想法和快速行动，以帮助保护地球。)”，以及下文的各个小标题可知，“为地球奋斗奖”的目的是找到方法保护地球。故选B项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Protect and Restore Nature下的“Kheyti is already working with 1, 000 farmers across India, which is one of the most climate-affected countries in the world. (Kheyti已经与印度的1,000名农民合作，印度是世界上受气候影响最严重的国家之一。)”可知，Kheyti的温室项目在印度各地都有进行。故选A项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Clean Our Air的“Charlot Magayi won the prize for cleaning the air. Ms. Magayi developed a stove (炉子) that uses a fuel that’s cheaper and pollutes far less than charcoal stoves. Currently, over 200,000 of her Clean Stoves are being used in Kenya.(查洛特·马盖赢得了清洁空气奖。马盖发明了一种使用比木炭炉更便宜且污染更少的燃料的炉子。目前，肯尼亚已有超过20万个她的清洁炉正在使用)”，Fix Our Climate的“The Earthshot Prize for working toward fixing our climate went to a company called 44.01 from Oman. 44.01 has come up with a way to turn polluting carbon dioxide(CO2)into a rock called peridotite.(为解决气候问题做出贡献的‘为地球奋斗奖’奖颁给了44.01公司。44.01公司提出了一种将污染的二氧化碳转化为一种名为橄榄石的岩石的方法。)”可知，Charlot Magayi和44.01的共同之处是他们的成就都有利于空气净化，因此而得奖。故选C项。 B More than 20 years ago, Yung-Chi Cheng, a Yale professor in drug development for cancer, had a pioneering idea: what if he could unlock the potential of ancient Chinese medicines for treating cancer? What if he could design botanical drugs that would make traditional cancer treatments work better? No one had done it before. Fellow researchers and experts advised him to change course, because developing botanical drugs was too complicated and too risky. But Cheng didn’t let the idea go. Now, in a landmark moment in cancer research, Cheng and research partners are launching the first international clinical trial for a botanical drug, YIV-906. Shwu-Hucy Liu, a postdoctoral researcher in Cheng’s Yale lab, spent hours leafing through ancient Chinese texts at Yale’s library seeking the properties of Chinese herbs. She returned with Huang Qin Tang, a 1,800-year-old treatment for stomach illnesses, based on which the team developed a drug and tested it on one thousand mice. What followed were years of additional testing of the drug’s effectiveness for a range of cancers in multiple human studies involving over 200 patients. The positive effects displayed again and again, YIV-906 not only reduced the side effects of radiation treatment, but also led to faster recovery and longer survival rates. All they need now are larger data sets. When the results of the international trial are available about three years from now, YIV-906 may find itself next in a long line of breakthrough drugs developed from natural products, which includes a malaria (疟疾) treatment developed from the Chinese herb qinghao, the discovery of which led to a Nobel Prize for chemist Tu Youyou. It has been a long journey, but if Cheng and his team are successful, it could create a new approach to treating cancer. They called the new approach “WE” medicine, a combination of Western medicine and Eastern medicine. “It’s a totally new model. I’ve met with a lot of doubt, but think the results will speak for themselves,” Cheng said. 4. What did fellow researchers initially think of Cheng’s research? A. Creative. B. Comprehensive. C. Conventional. D. Challenging. 5. Why did Liu refer to ancient Chinese texts? A. She wanted to question ancient treatment methods. B. She desired to find inspiration for treating diseases. C. She tried to document the history of Chinese herbs. D. She determined to find a cure for stomach illnesses. 6. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. Steps of the drug testing. B. The application of YIV-906. C. Effects of the clinical trial. D. The effectiveness of YIV-906. 7. Why does the author mention Chinese herb qinghao? A. To illustrate the value of botanical drugs. B. To advocate the adoption of “WE” medicine. C. To praise Tu’s contributions to drug development. D. To highlight its success in medicine development. 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了耶鲁大学癌症药物开发教授郑永齐研究一种新的治疗癌症的方法。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Fellow researchers and experts advised him to change course, because developing botanical drugs was too complicated and too risky. But Cheng didn’t let the idea go.( 其他研究人员和专家建议他改变路线，因为开发植物药物太复杂，风险太大。但是郑永齐并没有放弃这个想法)”可推知，研究人员最初认为郑永齐的研究是具有挑战性的。故选D项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Shwu-Hucy Liu, a postdoctoral researcher in Cheng’s Yale lab, spent hours leafing through ancient Chinese texts at Yale’s library seeking the properties of Chinese herbs. She returned with Huang Qin Tang, a 1,800-ycar-old treatment for stomach illnesses, based on which the team developed a drug and tested it on one thousand mice.( 郑永齐在耶鲁大学实验室的博士后研究员刘淑惠（音译）花了几个小时在耶鲁大学图书馆翻阅中国古代文献，寻找中草药的特性。她带着黄芩汤回来了，黄芩汤是一种有1800年历史的治疗胃病的药物，研究小组以此为基础开发了一种药物，并在1000只老鼠身上进行了测试)”可推知，刘淑惠参考中国古代文献是因为她希望找到治疗疾病的灵感。故选B项。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“What followed were years of additional testing of the drug’s effectiveness for a range of cancers in multiple human studies involving over 200 patients. The positive effects displayed again and again, YIV-906 not only reduced the side effects of radiation treatment, but also led to faster recovery and longer survival rates.( 接下来的几年里，科学家们在涉及200多名患者的多项人体研究中，对这种药物对一系列癌症的有效性进行了额外的测试。YIV-906不仅减少了放射治疗的副作用，而且恢复得更快，生存率更长，积极的效果一次又一次地显示出来)”可知，第三段主要讲了YIV-906的有效性。故选D项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“When the results of the international trial are available about three years from now, YIV-906 may find itself next in a long line of breakthrough drugs developed from natural products, which includes a malaria (疟疾) treatment developed from the Chinese herb ginghao, the discovery of which led to a Nobel Prize for chemist Tu Youyou.( 大约三年后，当国际试验的结果公布时，YIV-906可能会成为从天然产物中开发的一长串突破性药物中的下一个，其中包括从中药青蒿中开发的一种治疗疟疾的药物，该药物的发现使化学家屠呦呦获得了诺贝尔奖)”可推知，作者提到中药青蒿是为了说明植物性药物的价值。故选A项。 C Middle-school aged children who use the Internet, social media or video games for more than an hour each day during the school week have significantly lower grades and test scores, according to a study at Rutgers University-New Brunswick. Researchers say the findings give parents and children a threshold for using entertainment-related technology-no more than one hour daily on school days and four hours a day on weekends. “Interactive technology is widely used to improve children’s educational access and achievement,” said lead author Vivien. “During the COVID-19 pandemic, technology is important for remote learning. But there’s a growing concern that too much technology use, particularly for entertainment, may affect children’s educational development by holding them back from learning activities.” In the research, about 10,000 first-year middle school students were surveyed and followed. Their average age was 13.5 years. The results showed that children who used the Internet for entertainment four or more hours daily were four times more likely to skip school than those who didn’t. Boys used interactive technology for entertainment more than girls. Boys also performed worse and showed lower school engagement levels than girls. “Such findings are important, particularly in the recent online learning in countries throughout the world,” said Vivien. “In a learning environment mixed with the Internet, it is easy for children to move across educational and entertainment platforms during learning to other activities.” Vivien said children in study who used a bit of technology experienced less boredom at school, potentially due to the positive effects of participation in social media for students’ relationship building and advancing children’s cognitive (认知的) development. The findings suggest that parents place time limits on their children’s interactive technology use, and that parents and teachers should help children to develop effective time management and self-regulation skills to reduce their dependence on technology. 8. What’s the finding of the study? A. The Internet is important for children’s learning. B. More than an hour online a day hurts the learning. C. School kids should keep away from the Internet. D. Staying online does more harm to boys than girls. 9. What does the underlined word “threshold” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. Punishment. B. Reward. C. Guideline. D. Target. 10. What conclusion did Vivien draw from the study? A. Children under 13 should be kept from online. B. Schools have the duty to limit online lessons. C. Online learning helps children manage time. D. A bit use of technology is helpful to children. 11. Where is this text most likely from? A. An educational journal. B. An entertainment magazine. C. A technology report. D. A tour guidebook. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。通过一个研究结果，探讨学生上网对学习的影响及帮助，并提出相关建议。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。文章第一段谈到这个研究的结果：“Middle-school aged children who use the Internet, social media or video games for more than an hour each day during the school week have significantly lower grades and test scores”（在上学期间，每天使用互联网、社交媒体或电子游戏超过一个小时的初中生成绩和考试成绩明显较低）。因此，研究发现每天上网超过一个小时会影响学习。故选B。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。前文说研究发现，上课期间每天上网时间超过一小时就会对学生有影响。根据下文“for using entertainment-related technology-no more than one hour daily on school days and four hours a day on weekends.”（每天使用娱乐相关技术的时间不超过1小时，周末不超过4小时。）可知，这里说这个发现给父母和孩子提供了一个上网时长的“行为准则”，因此画线词的含义是“准则；指导原则”。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段的整段内容“Vivien said children in study who used a bit of technology experienced less boredom at school, potentially due to the positive effects of participation in social media for students’ relationship building and advancing children’s cognitive (认知的) development.”（维维安说，在研究中使用了一些科技产品的孩子在学校不会感到那么无聊，这可能是由于参与社交媒体对学生关系建立和促进孩子认知发展的积极影响。）可知，研究发现稍微使用一下科技对孩子们是有帮助的。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。本文根据一个研究来探讨学生接触网络的时间长短对其学习的影响，由此可知，本文的出处应该是“教育期刊”。故选A。 D Feeling a bit bored? It could be just what you need to produce your best ideas, excite your creativity or simply give your brain a rest. Nowadays, in the age of round-the-clock entertainment, it’s (technically) trickier to be bored. If the show you’re watching has lost its spark, you can easily amuse yourself on social media without even leaving the sofa. But that’s not necessarily a good thing. Feeling disengaged from the task in hand, or a lack of stimulation (刺激), does have its benefits, according to researchers at the University of Central Lancashire. Being bored motivates you to search out something less boring to do. For example, if you decide there’s nothing worth watching on TV, you might choose to switch off and take up a new hobby. This, according to researchers, can explain why the lockdowns of the past two years saw a surge (激增) in creativity among people stuck at home from banana-bread-making to picking up a paintbrush for the first time since childhood. But what about those times when you have no choice but to stick with the boring situation, waiting for a bus, for instance? The good news is that the boredom you’re feeling now could spark your creativity later, says a 2019 study published in the Academy of Management Discoveries journal. People who’d taken part in a bean-sorting task later performed better at coming up with creative ideas than another group who’d been given something more interesting to do first. Ultimately, don’t take it for granted that there’ll always be something close at hand to entertain us. With boredom, we will not run the risk of becoming boring ourselves. 12. What does the author imply in paragraph 2? A. Wondering mind can be healthy. B. Social media can surely entertain us. C. Being bored may be something good. D. Being involved in the task is beneficial. 13. Why was the surge in creativity seen recently? A. People were stimulated by boredom. B. People were better equipped at home. C. People had more hobbies to choose from. D. People were more concerned about mental being. 14. What is the purpose of the bean-sorting task in the 2019 study? A. To create a boring situation. B. To reduce people’s boredom. C. To make a funny performance. D. To show an entertainment at hand. 15. What is the best title of the passage? A. What is the point of creativity? B. Are we more easily bored nowadays? C. How can we deal with daily boredom? D. Does boredom make us more creative? 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. A 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了通过一系列的研究实验发现无聊可以激发创造力。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Feeling disengaged from the task in hand, or a lack of stimulation , does have its benefits, according to researchers at the University of Central Lancashire.（中央兰开夏大学的研究人员表示，对手头工作感到心不在焉或缺乏刺激确实有好处。）”可推断，作者在第二段中暗示了无聊可能是件好事。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“For example, if you decide there’s nothing worth watching on TV, you might choose to switch off and take up a new hobby.This, according to researchers, can explain why the lockdowns of the past two years saw a surge in creativity among people stuck at home from banana-bread-making to picking up a paintbrush for the first time since childhood.（例如，如果你觉得没有什么值得看的电视节目，你可以选择关掉它，培养新的爱好。研究人员表示，这可以解释为什么在过去两年的封锁中，到童年以来首次拿起画笔的人们的创造力激增。）”可知，无聊刺激了人们使得人们出现了创造力的激增。故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“People who’d taken part in a bean-sorting task later performed better at coming up with creative ideas than another group who’d been given something more interesting to do first.（那些后来参与了豆子分类任务的人比另一组先做更有趣的事情的人在想出创意方面表现得更好。）”可知，这个实验室为了证明无聊可以激发创造力，所以推断2019年研究中的豆类分类任务的目的是创造一个无聊的环境。故选A。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Feeling a bit bored? It could be just what you need to produce your best ideas, excite your creativity or simply give your brain a rest.（感觉有点无聊?它可能正是你所需要的，让你产生最好的想法，激发你的创造力，或者只是让你的大脑休息一下。）”及全文可知，本文主要介绍了通过一系列的研究实验发现无聊可以激发创造力。所以“Does boredom make us more creative?(无聊让我们更有创造力吗?)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选D。 第二节 七选五（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。 Flying for the first time can be both exciting and tense. ____16____, knowing what to expect and how to prepare can make your first flight a smooth and enjoyable experience.

I was happy and energetic. I understood that no matter how poor a person was, they could still afford a dream. My dream was sports. By the time I was sixteen, I could crush a baseball, throw a ninety-mile-per-hour fastball and hit anything that moved on the football field. I was also lucky: My high-school coach was Ollie Jarvis, who taught me the difference between sticking to a dream and just showing determination. One particular incident with Coach Jarvis changed my life forever. It was the summer between my junior and senior years, and a friend recommended me for a summer job. This meant a chance for money in my pocket-cash for hanging out with friends, certainly, money for a new bike and new clothes, and the start of savings for a house for my mother. The prospect of a summer job was appealing, and I wanted to jump at the opportunity. Then I realized I would have to give up summer baseball to handle the work schedule, and that meant I would have to tell Coach Jarvis I wouldn’t be playing. I was fearing this, but I had to. I stood before him with my head hanging, trying to think of the words that would explain to him why my dream of buying my mom a house and having money in my pocket was worth facing his disappointment in me. “How much are you going to make at this job, son?” he demanded. “Three twenty-five an hour,” I replied. “Well,” he asked, “is $3.25 an hour the price of a dream?” That question struck me like a flash of lightning. “A real dream is immeasurable, young man.” He sighed, patted my shoulder and strode away. With tears blurring my eyes, I clenched my fists, determined to keep pursuing my dream. From that day on, I threw myself into the baseball court, for I understood success came at a price. Finally, that moment arrived. I heard my name called in the award ceremony. 注意： 续写词数应为 80 左右； I went on the stage to collect the prize for the best baseball player. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 I went on the stage to collect the prize for the best baseball player. My eyes swept the crowd and soon locked on Coach Jarvis, who was smiling and nodding at me proudly. With a lump in my throat, I held the trophy tightly and said in a trembling voice, “I owe this to Coach Jarvis. He once asked me if $3.25 an hour was the price of a dream. That question woke me up.” Cheers erupted as I finished my speech, and I knew my dream was just taking off. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述作者家境贫寒却怀揣运动梦，在暑期工和棒球训练间抉择时，被教练的话点醒，坚定追逐梦想并斩获最佳棒球运动员奖项的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： 由段首句“我上台领取最佳棒球运动员奖。”可知，接下来可描写作者登台领奖时的激动心情，在人群中找到教练的身影，借获奖感言表达对教练的感激，点明教练的话对自己的影响。 2. 续写线索： 登台领奖——搜寻教练身影——发表感言致谢教练——坚定信念，立志实现梦想 3.词类激活： 行为类 ①扫视：sweep/scan/glance over ②锁定：lock on/focus on ③爆发：erupt/burst out 情绪类 ①激动地喉咙发紧：with a lump in my throat/choke up ②欢呼：cheer/applause ③颤抖的声音：trembling voice/shaky voice 【点睛】【高分句型1】My eyes swept the crowd and soon locked on Coach Jarvis, who was smiling and nodding at me proudly.（运用了who引导非限制性定语从句） 【高分句型2】Cheers erupted as I finished my speech, and I knew my dream was just taking off.（运用了as引导的时间状语从句和省略连接词that的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 深圳市第七高级中学2025-2026学年第一学期 期中质量检测 高二英语 本试卷共8页，62小题，满分150分。考试用时120分钟。 注意事项：1.答卷前，考生务必用黑色字迹的钢笔或签字笔将自己的姓名、考生号、试室号和座位号填写在答题卡上。用2B铅笔将试卷类型（A）填涂在答题卡相应位置上，并在答题卡相应位置上填涂考生号。 2.作答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡对应题目选项的答案信息点涂黑；如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案。答案不能答在试卷上。 3.非选择题必须用黑色字迹的钢笔或签字笔作答，答案必须写在答题卡各题目指定区域内相应位置上；如需改动，先划掉原来的答案，然后再写上新答案；不准使用铅笔和涂改液。不按以上要求作答无效。 4.考生必须保持答题卡的整洁。考试结束后，将试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 基础能力题（共四节，满分75分） 第一节 阅读理解（共15小题，每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A Last Friday, Britain’s Prince William announced the winners of this year’s Earthshot Prize. The prize is meant to encourage new ideas and rapid action to help protect the planet. Below are parts of this year’s prize-winning projects in each category. Protect and Restore Nature Kheyti won the prize for protecting and restoring nature with its “Greenhouse-in-a-box” idea. Kheyti is already working with 1, 000 farmers across India, which is one of the most climate-affected countries in the world. The company says the greenhouses allow farmers to use 90% less water and produce seven times as much food. Kheyti hopes to get its greenhouses to 50,000 farmers by 2027. Clean Our Air Charlot Magayi won the prize for cleaning the air. Ms. Magayi developed a stove (炉子) that uses a fuel that’s cheaper and pollutes far less than charcoal stoves. Currently, over 200,000 of her Clean Stoves are being used in Kenya. Build a Waste-Free World A London-based company called Notpla(for “Not Plastic”)won the prize for building a waste-free world. They’ve created a plastic substitute(替代品)from plants found in the ocean. Unlike most plastic, their products break down naturally with no microplastics. Notpla believes their products can help end the plastic pollution that’s filling landfills and polluting oceans. Fix Our Climate The Earthshot Prize for working toward fixing our climate went to a company called 44.01 from Oman. 44.01 has come up with a way to turn polluting carbon dioxide(CO2)into a rock called peridotite. Once the CO2 has been turned into rock, it can no longer be released into the atmosphere again. The method that 44.01 uses is fast, cheap and permanent. 1. What is the aim of the Earthshot Prize? A. To offer practical advice on global warming. B. To find solutions to the environmental problems. C. To develop a strategic partnership with all parties. D. To encourage literary creations of the British people. 2. Where are Kheyti’s greenhouses widely used? A. In India. B. In Kenya. C. In the UK. D. In Oman. 3. What do Charlot Magayi and 44.01 have in common? A. They want to build a waste-free world. B. Their projects are directly good for farmers. C. Their achievements benefit the air cleaning. D. They use plants from the ocean in their products. B More than 20 years ago, Yung-Chi Cheng, a Yale professor in drug development for cancer, had a pioneering idea: what if he could unlock the potential of ancient Chinese medicines for treating cancer? What if he could design botanical drugs that would make traditional cancer treatments work better? No one had done it before. Fellow researchers and experts advised him to change course, because developing botanical drugs was too complicated and too risky. But Cheng didn’t let the idea go. Now, in a landmark moment in cancer research, Cheng and research partners are launching the first international clinical trial for a botanical drug, YIV-906. Shwu-Hucy Liu, a postdoctoral researcher in Cheng’s Yale lab, spent hours leafing through ancient Chinese texts at Yale’s library seeking the properties of Chinese herbs. She returned with Huang Qin Tang, a 1,800-year-old treatment for stomach illnesses, based on which the team developed a drug and tested it on one thousand mice. What followed were years of additional testing of the drug’s effectiveness for a range of cancers in multiple human studies involving over 200 patients. The positive effects displayed again and again, YIV-906 not only reduced the side effects of radiation treatment, but also led to faster recovery and longer survival rates. All they need now are larger data sets. When the results of the international trial are available about three years from now, YIV-906 may find itself next in a long line of breakthrough drugs developed from natural products, which includes a malaria (疟疾) treatment developed from the Chinese herb qinghao, the discovery of which led to a Nobel Prize for chemist Tu Youyou. It has been a long journey, but if Cheng and his team are successful, it could create a new approach to treating cancer. They called the new approach “WE” medicine, a combination of Western medicine and Eastern medicine. “It’s a totally new model. I’ve met with a lot of doubt, but think the results will speak for themselves,” Cheng said. 4. What did fellow researchers initially think of Cheng’s research? A. Creative. B. Comprehensive. C. Conventional. D. Challenging. 5. Why did Liu refer to ancient Chinese texts? A. She wanted to question ancient treatment methods. B. She desired to find inspiration for treating diseases. C. She tried to document the history of Chinese herbs. D. She determined to find a cure for stomach illnesses. 6. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. Steps of the drug testing. B. The application of YIV-906. C. Effects of the clinical trial. D. The effectiveness of YIV-906. 7. Why does the author mention Chinese herb qinghao? A. To illustrate the value of botanical drugs. B. To advocate the adoption of “WE” medicine. C. To praise Tu’s contributions to drug development. D. To highlight its success in medicine development. C Middle-school aged children who use the Internet, social media or video games for more than an hour each day during the school week have significantly lower grades and test scores, according to a study at Rutgers University-New Brunswick. Researchers say the findings give parents and children a threshold for using entertainment-related technology-no more than one hour daily on school days and four hours a day on weekends. “Interactive technology is widely used to improve children’s educational access and achievement,” said lead author Vivien. “During the COVID-19 pandemic, technology is important for remote learning. But there’s a growing concern that too much technology use, particularly for entertainment, may affect children’s educational development by holding them back from learning activities.” In the research, about 10,000 first-year middle school students were surveyed and followed. Their average age was 13.5 years. The results showed that children who used the Internet for entertainment four or more hours daily were four times more likely to skip school than those who didn’t. Boys used interactive technology for entertainment more than girls. Boys also performed worse and showed lower school engagement levels than girls. “Such findings are important, particularly in the recent online learning in countries throughout the world,” said Vivien. “In a learning environment mixed with the Internet, it is easy for children to move across educational and entertainment platforms during learning to other activities.” Vivien said children in study who used a bit of technology experienced less boredom at school, potentially due to the positive effects of participation in social media for students’ relationship building and advancing children’s cognitive (认知的) development. The findings suggest that parents place time limits on their children’s interactive technology use, and that parents and teachers should help children to develop effective time management and self-regulation skills to reduce their dependence on technology. 8.

Nowadays, in the age of round-the-clock entertainment, it’s (technically) trickier to be bored. If the show you’re watching has lost its spark, you can easily amuse yourself on social media without even leaving the sofa. But that’s not necessarily a good thing. Feeling disengaged from the task in hand, or a lack of stimulation (刺激), does have its benefits, according to researchers at the University of Central Lancashire. Being bored motivates you to search out something less boring to do. For example, if you decide there’s nothing worth watching on TV, you might choose to switch off and take up a new hobby. This, according to researchers, can explain why the lockdowns of the past two years saw a surge (激增) in creativity among people stuck at home from banana-bread-making to picking up a paintbrush for the first time since childhood. But what about those times when you have no choice but to stick with the boring situation, waiting for a bus, for instance? The good news is that the boredom you’re feeling now could spark your creativity later, says a 2019 study published in the Academy of Management Discoveries journal. People who’d taken part in a bean-sorting task later performed better at coming up with creative ideas than another group who’d been given something more interesting to do first. Ultimately, don’t take it for granted that there’ll always be something close at hand to entertain us. With boredom, we will not run the risk of becoming boring ourselves. 12. What does the author imply in paragraph 2? A. Wondering mind can be healthy. B. Social media can surely entertain us. C. Being bored may be something good. D. Being involved in the task is beneficial. 13. Why was the surge in creativity seen recently? A. People were stimulated by boredom. B. People were better equipped at home. C. People had more hobbies to choose from. D. People were more concerned about mental being. 14. What is the purpose of the bean-sorting task in the 2019 study? A. To create a boring situation. B. To reduce people’s boredom. C. To make a funny performance. D. To show an entertainment at hand. 15. What is the best title of the passage? A What is the point of creativity? B. Are we more easily bored nowadays? C. How can we deal with daily boredom? D. Does boredom make us more creative? 第二节 七选五（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。 Flying for the first time can be both exciting and tense. ____16____, knowing what to expect and how to prepare can make your first flight a smooth and enjoyable experience.

I was happy and energetic. I understood that no matter how poor a person was, they could still afford a dream. My dream was sports. By the time I was sixteen, I could crush a baseball, throw a ninety-mile-per-hour fastball and hit anything that moved on the football field. I was also lucky: My high-school coach was Ollie Jarvis, who taught me the difference between sticking to a dream and just showing determination. One particular incident with Coach Jarvis changed my life forever. It was the summer between my junior and senior years, and a friend recommended me for a summer job. This meant a chance for money in my pocket-cash for hanging out with friends, certainly, money for a new bike and new clothes, and the start of savings for a house for my mother. The prospect of a summer job was appealing, and I wanted to jump at the opportunity. Then I realized I would have to give up summer baseball to handle the work schedule, and that meant I would have to tell Coach Jarvis I wouldn’t be playing. I was fearing this, but I had to. I stood before him with my head hanging, trying to think of the words that would explain to him why my dream of buying my mom a house and having money in my pocket was worth facing his disappointment in me. “How much are you going to make at this job, son?” he demanded. “Three twenty-five an hour,” I replied. “Well,” he asked, “is $3.25 an hour the price of a dream?” That question struck me like a flash of lightning. “A real dream is immeasurable, young man.” He sighed, patted my shoulder and strode away. With tears blurring my eyes, I clenched my fists, determined to keep pursuing my dream. From that day on, I threw myself into the baseball court, for I understood success came at a price. Finally, that moment arrived. I heard my name called in the award ceremony. 注意： 续写词数应为 80 左右； I went on the stage to collect the prize for the best baseball player. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
