Easthope is an emergency planner whose job is to support the survivors of major disasters, in which capacity she acted following the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami and the fire at Grenfell Tower.For two decades,the public knew nothing about this vital work,which went on behind the scenes,though she was hugely admired in what we might call professional disaster circles: a voice of calm and a fountain of wisdom.But in 2023,she published a best-selling book about her career,When the Dust Settles,and that changed.People became very interested in what she did. "At literary festivals,most authors get questions about their writing process,"Easthope says."But I wouldn't get those.What people wanted from me was to know how I lived with the knowledge that I have.Wasn't I afraid?How did I handle it?I would tell them that I didn't live afraid,and I would give them basic advice.But this wasn't enough."In the end,she felt she had no choice but to write a second book,one in which she would try to cover all that she has learned for the benefit of each individual. While her publisher describes Come What May as a road map for resilience ()the word is one Easthope dislikes.Ready,she suggests,is a better one.Easthope also reminds people that small things,like losing hair during illness or consuming too much food after someone dies,still matter.She encourages people to remember,not to forget,what happened during disasters,because such events leave a long-lasting effect. 24.What might a Cassandra be like according to paragraph 1? A.Friendly and energetic. B.Competent and cautious. C.Cheerful and easy-going. D.Serious and unapproachable. 25.What led to increased public awareness of Easthope's work in 2023? A.The publication of a best seller. B.Her involvement in 2004 tsunami relief. C.The growth of professional disaster circles. D.Her sudden rise to fame through media 26.Why are readers'questions cited in paragraph 3? A.To reveal Easthope's personal fears. B.To highlight Easthope's literary fame. C.To showcase Easthope's writing motivation. D.To assess Easthope's professional wisdom. 27.What is Easthope's opinion on handling disaster-related matters? A.Forgetting aids recovery. B.Resilience matters most. C.Positive thinking takes the lead. D.Minor sufferings deserve attention. 6-1第2页共5页 对流只 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描ApP C Polymetallic nodules(多金属结核)on the deep-ocean seafloor contain minerals like cobalt and nickel,which mining companies hope to harvest for green-energy batteries and technologies.However,a recent study suggests these prized,potato-sized rocks may also serve as a source of oxygen for the bacteria'and other microorganisms living there. Jeffrey Marlow,one of the authors of the study,said researchers planted 'some watertight structures on the ocean floor,which he described as overturned boxes equipped with instruments designed to measure the property and composition of living things and their probable usage of oxygen.Researchers measured the oxygen loss over a 48-hour period while the structure was sealed on the seafloor.Typically,a decline in oxygen is an indicator for biological abundance because breathing organisms consume it.Yet,contrary to all expectations, they observed a rise in oxygen levels,a finding that directly challenged conventional understanding. But not everyone is on the same wavelength as him.Canada's The Metals Co.stated the study had been rejected by four scientific publications until finding a home at Nature,which the company labeled as "a journal that has long championed the preservation of deep-sea mineral."TMC also said the method was wrong,arguing the team's findings contradicted other work that had been conducted in the Pacific Ocean's Clarion-Clipper Zone."The heightened oxygen levels are in fact erroneous in the data,and we are currently preparing a peer-reviewed paper as a fightback,"said the company. Bo Barker,a microbiologist at Denmark's Aarhus University,said the study invited more questions than it did answers.He described it as a "novel but very confusing process for which the mechanism is still not clear." For years,companies such as Canada's TMC have been battling to persuade the international governing authority to green-light their plans to obtain these rocks in the Pacific Ocean's CCZ.The company has argued that the metals are essential for fossil fuel-free technologies and that the impact mining will have on the ocean floor is not only minimal,but also fades next to the destruction of rain forests and human communities caused by land-based mining. 28.What can be inferred about the recent study? A.It cast light on new organisms. B.It capitalized on costly equipment. C.It consumed considerable time. D.It documented oxygen concentration. 29.What does the underlined word "erroneous"in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A.Misleading.B.Significant.C.Precise.D.Imaginary. 30. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph? A.Summarize the previous paragraphs.B.Introduce a new topic for discussion. C.Add some background information.D.Clarify some writing techniques. 31.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.Minerals,a Mixed Blessing B.A Tiny Stone:a Big Wave C.TMC,an Eco-minded Enterprise D.Oxygen:the Lifeline for CCZ D Who doesn't stand in awe of the advances that science and its STEM siblings (technology, engineering,and math)have created to better our world?But since the time of Aristotle,it has also been recognized that the hard sciences and the humanities must walk side by side in determining human action. 高二英语期末2026-1第 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描App The ancient Greek philosopher praised "practical wisdom"as the "middle ground" between scientific knowledge and what he referred to as the "cunning (intelligence of politicians,military generals and business leaders".In his Nicomachean Ethics,he rejected the idea that scientific knowledge alone could determine the affairs of the complex human social world.Likewise,he saw that cunning was insufficient to shape society.Aristotle insisted that practical wisdom was required for the advancement of the human race as it would take into account what he called "the common good,"doing what is right for the majority of people living together in society. Aristotle's philosophy is still sound today.But to the extent that we side with him,we must challenge our modern era's overwhelming emphasis on the STEM disciplines as the key to progress.Yes,we will continue to welcome advances in computerization,robotics,medicine and more.But to ensure these innovations are in service of the good life,we must also advance our thinking in the humanities:philosophy,social affairs and the arts. Instead of just STEM,we should perhaps be promoting STEMMA.In that case,we.will be able to raise a new generation that has greater capacities for managing collective human efforts and appreciating the arts.Management education-the new "M"-has not always been integrated into humanistic thinking,but it must become more so.Our goal must be to develop the thoughtful leaders of the future.Regarding the"A",how could it be beneficial to the future without emphasizing the arts,which inform our knowledge of beauty and meaning in human affairs?All the brilliant discoveries of STEM will not solve the grand challenges of today's world-ignorance,poverty,intolerance and political conflict-without the practical wisdom of humanities-trained leaders. We can't march boldly into the future without the capabilities necessary for preserving our human dignity in a world of artificial superintelligence (ASD).Humans arc not robots and ncurons are not digital switches.It is only through the humanities that we will be able to appreciate the answers that superintelligent computers give us when we ask them questions.It is only through the humanities that we will increasingly recognize and build on what we humans uniquely are. 32.What is the limitation of relying only on STEM disciplines? A.They lack the precision needed for modern innovations. B.They can't meet the severe challenges of human society alone. C.They prevent the development of artificial superintelligence. D.They are too focused on theoretical rather than practical knowledge. 33.The term"practical wisdom"as used by Aristotle emphasizes A.the need for military strategies in societal development B.the importance of thoughtful business leaders of the future C.the advantage of political philosophy over scientific knowledge D.the value of balancing scientific knowledge.and cunning intelligence 34.What can we infer about."STEMMA"? A.It directs STEM towards human-centered goals. B.It empowers humans to manage the global economy. C.It represents an educational model designed to replace STEM. D.It suggests art appreciation is the ultimate solution to global challenges. 2026-1第3页共5页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描App 35.How does the author view the relationship between humans and ASI? A.The development of ASI comes at the expense of human dignity. B.Human uniqueness is defined by contrasting it with ASI's capabilities. C.ASI's outputs are beyond humans'comprehension without the humanities. D.ASI's analytical power can make up for the shortcomings in the humanities. 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 Do a Proper Social Media Detox Despite the involvement of dopamine(多巴胺)，social media addiction is a psychological addiction.You need to stop rewarding your current dopamine triggers so that your brain can retumn to normal.36 Plus,you're more likely to continuously go back into addiction with little hits.Here are the simple steps to a true social media detox: .Deactivate your accounts.37 And it will also signal to your friends that you're on a detox.It is easy to find out how to deactivate Facebook,Instagram,and LinkedIn. .Uninstall all social media apps.This will eliminate all of those notifications and alerts that play such a crucial role in social media addiction.And you won't be as likely to pop one of those apps open in moments of boredom or stillness. .Block all social media sites.This is for your computers,laptops,and tablets.Use one of these web filtering tools to restrict access to social media sites.38 I also have OpenDNS on my router,which blocks sites for all devices connected to it. .39 It's not enough to remove social media from your day.You need to fill that empty space with something else.Otherwise,you're just going to claw your way back.I recommend learning new skills,whether creative hobbies,geeky DIY hobbies,or even hobby programming. .Stick with the detox long enough.While studies are still limited on this,most experts agree that it takes approximately three months (or 100 days)for dopamine levels to return to normal.It may take longer depending on how long and how intensely you've been addicted. 40 One last word of advice:Don't panic.A detox doesn't have to be permanent-it just has to be long enough to rewire your brain and break you out of the endless dopamine cycle.You can always come back later. A.Take a moment and search your heart. B.My preferred tool is K9 Web Protection. C.Replace social media with another activity. D.This will serve as a fence against your sudden wish to check in. E.You can't do a detox if you're feeding your appetite here and there. F.So don't be surprised if it takes upwards of six months or even a year. G.Like most addictions,it takes hold of you long before you realize it even exists. 高二英语期末2026-1 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描Ap 第三部分：语言运用（共两节，满分30分) 第一节（共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 My father's thrift (philosophy shaped my youth.Unlike peers receiving pocket money,I never 'got'a penny-not from cruelty,but to.build 41.Each morning,he'd note,"Mrs.Wilson needs her garden weeded;Mr.Carter requires help 42 bottles."I earned coins through43 work in the neighborhood:sweeping leaves,shoveling snow and planting trees.

He was right:The librarian just laughed and helped pick up the books.When Emma,his best friend,failed in the quiz,Eason said,"Don't worry.You will be better."And he was right. After working hard around the clock,Emma got an A in the final.Eason looked at the bright side,and everyone in class liked that,except Zoe. Zoe was the new student in class.On her first day,Eason greeted her warmly with open arms,saying,"Nice to meet you,Zoe.I think you'll like it here."Zoe stared at him,"I doubt it." Eason didn't know what to say.He'd never met anyone like Zoe. In the afternoon,Mr.D.announced that they'd have an art class inside because of the rain. At that,Zoe directed a meaningful look at Eason,raising her eyebrow,"Bad things come in threes.No outdoor activity is number one.What will be the second?"Eason felt as if a cold wind was knocking into him.Outside the window,the clouds had rolled over the sun.The room felt darker and the class didn't have to wait long to find out the next. A boy was carrying a box of paint when he fell,and paint went flying.There was blue,red and black on the walls.Zoe tumned to Eason,reaching out two fingers,posing a""sign,eyes shining with delight of victory,which seemed to celebrate the arrival of the second bad thing. Eason was speechless. Just at that moment,Emma came to look at Eason's painting.She admired it and picked it up,not realizing she had paint on her fingers.Zoe pointed with excitement,"Number three!
