He was eight when they landed in the UK.Besides the changes in climate,he also had to adjust to the change in pets:"Where's everyone's pet lions and monkeys?It was all cats and dogs.I hadn't realised what a special upbringing I had had.But it was the UK that cemented my love of wildlife.At first glance,it doesn't look like there is a lot of wildlife,especially in the winter.But if you peel back the layers,there is so much." Though his doctor parents didn't have time to closely teach him,they did turn on the television;in particular,the Discovery Channel.David Attenborough's The Life of Birds was an eye-opening experience,and Steve Irwin was a huge inspiration,too. While he thought they had cool jobs,he never thought he could be a presenter.He never saw anyone like him in front of the camera.He was a teenager who wasn't white. It was still a long road to establishing his career,though.It was not until after he became an assistant for the incredible wildlife cameraman Jesse Wilkinson that he realized he needed to create his own journey.When he was 21,he traveled with friends to the Highlands.Two weeks later,he was back there for good.He told his parents he was living in a beautiful cottage.The truth was that he was living in his car,just trying to make ends meet.He parked at the local ferry terminal but lived there happily for nine months,doing odd jobs-cutting grass,and moving furniture to earn enough money to survive.During that time,he was cutting his teeth as a wildlife cameraman-he was determined that he wouldn't go back to Northampton with his tail between his legs and say to his parents:"I've been defeated."Luckily,everything paid off.That experience taught him everything he needed to know about the profession. Eventually,Hamza became a renowned wildlife cameraman,inspiring others to pursue their dreams regardless of their background. 24.What does the underlined word"cemented"ir paragraph 2 refer to? A.Strengthened B.Assessed C.Challenged D.Reduced 25 Why didn't Hamza think he could be a TV presenter at the beginning? A.He took no passion for being a presenter. B.He feared to stand in front of the camera. C.He lacked confidence because of his color. D.He obtained little support from his parents. 26.Why does the author mention Hamza's trip to the Highlands? A.It led to a life-long friendship. B.It enriched his life experience. C.It refined his photography skills D.It started his own career journey. 27.What can we learn from Hamza's experience? A.Great minds think alike. B.Strike while the iron is hot. C.Actions speak louder than words. D.Where there's a will,there's a way. 高二英语期末试卷第4页，共10页 C While we race into a future where we outsource most of our problem-solving to artificial intelligence,the greatest threat is not super intelligent machinery.It's mindlessly putting too much trust in Big Tech and not enough trust in the power of our own minds. Aphilosophy of artful thinking is a good way to avoid this.To think artfully means to solve problems using not just our brains,but also our hands,eyes,and ears,along with our emotions.This approach taps into the cognitive()resources that are spread throughout our bodies but often go unused. Changing how we think is hard work.And it starts with a mindfulness practice. Accessing artful intelligence requires being mindful of how we think with our body,how we use our limbs ()organs,and emotions to make sense of the world.Be mindful of all the different messages your body is sending you as well as the different roles and functions your bodily actions can play.For example,gesturing in conversations is not just communicative.These movements often help the speaker to smooth out their thought process and assist in getting the words out. Today,Big Tech is pushing a message of artificial-intelligence craziness and fear. What makes you stuck in it?It's seeing the same things wherever you look.Big Tech gives you screens,hoping that your attention will always be attracted by their devices.If you want to find more freedom in this AI-filled world,improve your ability to mindfully shift your attention between different objects or levels of focus.Remember everything is born of a choice. Artful thinking demands effortful mindfulness to ensure that what we do,what we hope to achieve by using these technological tools,will not weaken our humanity.As Thich Nhat Hanh said,"Mindful living is an art,and each of us has to train to be an artist." 28.What can we learn about artful thinking? A.It simplifies problem-solving. B.It focuses on developing our brains. C.It prevents us from over-relying on AI. D.It helps promote high-tech machinery. 29.What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A.Benefits of artful intelligence. B.Mind-body awareness in thinking. C.Significance of being mindful. D.Social interaction through movements. 30.What does the auther suggest we do in the AI-filled world? A.Enhance the flexibility of attention B.Adapt to the rise of AI. C.Avoid the interruptions from Big Tech. D.Improve the levels of focus. 31.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.Artful Thinking Advances Big Tech B.Too Much Trust in AI Harms Our Minds C.Physical Actions Better Cognitive Functions D.Mindfulness Keeps Us Human in the Age of AI 高二英语期末试卷第5页，共10页 D Despite all the efforts students make to graduate with a science major,research has shown that most college science courses provide students with only a fragmented (H understanding of fundamental scientific concepts.The teaching method improves memorization of separate facts,proceeding from one textbook chapter to the next without necessarily making connections between them,instead of learning how to use the information and connect those facts meaningfully. With that in mind,we developed a series of cross-disciplinary(跨学科的) activities.In our most recent study,we investigated how well college students could use their chemistry knowledge to explain real-world biological phenomena.To begin with, we interviewed 28 first-year college students majoring in sciences or engineering.All had taken both introductory chemistry and biology courses.We asked them to identify the content of these courses and what they believed to be the take-home messages from each course.The students responded with extensive lists of topics,concepts,and skills that they'd learned in class. Following that,a set of cross-disciplinary activities were designed to guide students in the use of core chemistry ideas and knowledge to help explain real-world biological phenomena.One activity explored the impacts of ocean acidification on seashells.Here,the students were asked to use basic chemistry ideas to explain how the increasing level of carbon dioxide in sea water is affecting shell-building marine animals such as corals,clams and oysters. Overall,the students felt confident of their chemistry knowledge.However,they had a harder time applying the same chemistry knowledge to explaining the biological phenomena.These findings highlight that a big gap remains between what students learn in their science courses and how well prepared they are to apply that information. The students in our study also reported that these activities helped them see links between the two disciplines that they wouldn't have perceived otherwise.The ability to make these connections is important beyond the classroom as well,because it's the basis of science literacy(科学素养).So we also came away with evidence that our chemistry students at ieast would like to have the ability to have a deeper understanding of science and how to apply it. 32.What does the existing science education fail to do according to the research? A.Extend students'theoretical knowledge. B.Engage students in more outdoor activities. C.Encourage students to enjoy the learning process. D.Teach students to make connections among different subjects. 33.What can we learn about the student interviewees in the first step of study? A.They have rich academic knowledge. B.They pay little attention to biology courses. C.They hardly identify the core ideas of science. D.They fully understand their major's importance. 高二英语期末试卷第6页，共10页 34.The activity about ocean acidification expects students to A.analyse the exact composition of sea water B.study some unusual phenomena under the sea C.come up with practical methods to protect sea life D.explain the effects of carbon dioxide on sea creatures 35.What does the author see from the result of the study according to the last paragraph? A.The need to connect chemistry with other science subjects. B.The difficulties of fostering cross-disciplinary abilities. C.The potential to promote students'science literacy. D.The method of increasing students'practical skills. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项 为多余选项。 You're standing in line at the grocery store or waiting for an elevator.You have no more than a minute to kill.And yet,before you've even realized what you're doing, you've pulled out your phone and have begun to mindlessly scroll (through apps. 36 Research suggests plenty of people do the same thing.Only 11%of people's smartpbone checks were in response to a notification ()For the rest of the time,tney checked their phones totally unplanned,often without thinking through why they were doing it.We're so used to constant stimulation that we feel uncomfortable when we're not doing anything,even for just a few seconds.
