People around the world have enjoyed exciting and meaningful sports since ancient times. Here are some examples of ancient sports from different cultures. Egyptian Pharaohs’ Running Race In ancient Egypt, kings demonstrated their physical strength by running during the Sed Festival. This special event took place after a king had ruled for 30 years. For example, Pharaoh Djoser ran around the temple for a long time to prove he was still healthy and strong. Minoan Bull-Leaping The Minoan people created a very dangerous sport called bull-leaping. In this event, athletes would run directly at a charging bull, grab its horns (角) and leap over its back. Wall paintings from the Palace of Knossos show these exciting scenes. Mesopotamian Wrestling Ancient Mesopotamians practiced wrestling and boxing. Stone carvings show strong fighters wearing skirts during matches. These matches were intense, with fighters wrestling like wild animals. Ancient Chinese Archery (射箭) In the Zhou Dynasty’s royal education, archery was a required skill for men. Competitions, called “sheyi”, were held with strict rules and ceremonies. To win, a person needed both physical skill and qualities such as grace, self-control and respect. These contests often took place in temples and served to promote moral values and social order. Although ancient sports varied widely in form and intent, they universally highlighted the value of skill. Beyond mere competition, these activities were deeply integrated into their societies, reflecting cultural beliefs and shaping a sense of community. 21. What do Minoan bull-leaping and Mesopotamian wrestling have in common? A. They followed strict ceremonies. B. They were created to honor kings. C. They were physically demanding. D. They included fighting against animals. 22. What is special about ancient Chinese archery? A. It had flexible rules. B. It helped build character. C. It encouraged self-expression. D. It served as public entertainment. 23. What is the purpose of the text? A. To stress the importance of sports. B. To inform readers of modern sports. C. To discuss the possible origins of sports. D. To show some ancient sports and their cultural value. B I’m an 18-year-old pre-medical student, tall and good-looking, with two short story books and quite a number of essays to my credit. Why am I singing such praises of myself? Just to explain that the attainment of self-pride comes from a great deal of self-love, and to attain it, one must first learn to accept oneself as one is. That was where my struggle began. Born and raised in Africa, I had always taken my African origin as burden. My self-dislike was further fueled when my family had to relocate to Norway, where I attended a high school. Compared to all the white girls around me, with their golden hair and delicate lips, I, a black girl, had curly hair and full, red lips. My nose often had a thin sheet of sweat on it, whatever the weather was. I just wanted to bury myself in my shell crying “I’m so different!” What also contributed to my self-dislike was my occasional stuttering (口吃), which had weakened my self-confidence. It always stood between me and any fine opportunity. I’d taken it as an excuse to avoid any public speaking sessions, and unknowingly let it rule over me. Fortunately, as I grew older, there came a turning point. One day a white girl caught my eye on the school bus when she suddenly turned back. To my astonishment, she had a thin sheet of sweat on her nose too, and it was in November! “Wow,” I whispered to myself, “this isn’t a genetic disorder after all. It’s perfectly normal.” Days later, my life took another twist. Searching the Internet for stuttering cures, I accidentally learned that such famous people as Isaac Newton and Winston Churchill also stuttered. I felt a weight lift off my shoulders, then an idea suddenly hit me — if I’m smart, I shouldn’t allow my stuttering to stand between me and my success. Another boost to my self-confidence came days later as I was watching the news about Oprah Winfrey, the famous talk show host and writer — she’s black too! Whenever I think of her story and my former dislike of my color, I’m practically filled with shame. Today, I’ve grown to accept what I am with pride; it simply gives me feeling of uniqueness. The idea of self-love has taken on a whole new meaning for me: there’s always something fantastic about us, and what we need to do is learn to appreciate it. 24. What affected the author’s adjustment to her school life in Norway? A. Social discrimination. B. Her appearance. C. Her changing emotions. D. The climate in Norway. 25. How did the author feel on noticing the similarity between her and the girl on the bus? A. Shocked and ashamed. B. Confused and terrified. C. Blessed and proud. D. Amazed and relieved. 26. What lesson did the author learn from the cases of Newton and Churchill? A. Great minds speak alike. B. Celebrities can’t live with their flaws. C. Stuttering is no barrier to success. D. Wisdom counts more than hard work. 27. What can we learn from this passage? A. Pride comes before a fall. B. Comparison is the thief of joy. C. Every cloud has a silver lining. D. Love and acceptance is the ultimate gift. C Have you ever joyously stepped out to your backyard garden, freshly brewed coffee in hand, only to find your cared-for plants and herbs wilted (枯萎的) and dying? Was the soil too dry? Did pests find their way in? During times like these, some frustrated gardeners may wish their fickle ficus (榕树) would just tell them what it needs. A new Microsoft-partnered project in the UK is trying to see if that concept can be demonstrated in the real-world. Next year, the Royal Horticultural Society in England will show off an “intelligent garden” that uses an AI model to monitor the garden’s environment and inform gardeners when it needs care. Visitors can ask the AI-powered garden questions. The model could then respond with phrases like “I need a bit more water,” or “I could use a haircut” depending on data captured in the soil. The technical components of the garden are the product of a partnership between AIstart-up Avande and Microsoft. The garden relies on a network of sensors nestled throughout the garden measuring environmental factors like soil moisture, alkalinity (碱度), and nutrient levels as well as wind and projected rainfall. All of that data is then sent to a specially designed AI model at the back of the garden. The model, powered by Microsoft’s Azure Open AI Service, can then analyze those factors and inform gardeners on best feeding, watering, or trimming. In theory, insights provided by models like this one could help gardeners allocate resources efficiently and avoid over-watering plants before rainfall, both of which can aid in sustainability efforts. Those tools could be a welcome convenience for casual growers or businesses looking to reduce costs. It’s unclear, however, whether even the best models can account for something abnormal and individual plant tendencies with the same level of care as experienced gardeners. Several currently available apps also use AI to help gardeners identify unknown plants by comparing a photo of them against a large online database. But as past reporting has shown,simply trusting an AI to tell you whether a plant or fungi of unknown origin is safe to eat isn’t wise, and could have dangerous results. 28. What will AI be used to do in gardening according to the text? A. Look after the plants in place of gardeners. B. Help the gardeners interact with the plants. C. Improve the condition of soil in the garden. D. Design the environmentally-friendly gardens. 29. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. How the intelligent garden works. B. Why the intelligent garden is popular. C. How the intelligent garden was invented. D. What advantages the intelligent garden has. 30. What does the underlined word insights mean in paragraph 4? A. Experience. B. Data. C. Methods. D. Tests. 31. What is the author’s attitude toward AI’s use in gardening? A. Unclear. B. Approving. C. Objective. D. Negative. D A new study has revealed the vast majority of Australians worry about what might happen to the Great Barrier Reef, the country’s largest natural wonder. Environmental groups warn authorities that bold action is needed now to secure its future. The report, commissioned by the Great Barrier Reef Foundation (GBRF), shows that the Reef is still one of the world’s most valuable ecosystems, but its survival cannot be guaranteed without major investment and strong climate action. The Reef brings about 9 billion Australian dollars to the economy each year and supports around 77,000 jobs. Economists estimate that, with urgent climate efforts, it could bring another 124 billion dollars in benefits over the next 50 years. But without action, experts warn, it may not survive at all. Public support for saving the Reef is also strong. A national survey found that 98% of Australians believe losing the Reef would be a “national tragedy,” and nearly three-quarters see it as “irreplaceable.” Nine in ten are worried about climate change, and 78% say protecting the Reef for future generations is very important. “The Reef is too precious to lose,” said GBRF director Anna Marsden, adding that saving it is vital not just for the environment, but also for the millions of people who depend on it. Scientists report that the Reef has suffered record coral losses in recent years due to warming seas and pollution. Since 2016, five mass bleaching (白化) events have damaged large parts of the Reef, including two in 2024 and 2025. Run-off from farms continues to reduce water quality, making recovery harder. To save the Reef, the Australian and Queensland governments have launched the “Reef 2050 Plan,” a long-term program to improve water quality and expand protected areas. However, debate continues after Queensland decided to extend coal use beyond 2050. Supporters say the plan is practical, while others warn that continued fossil fuel use puts the Reef’s future at serious risk. 32. What does the GBRF report mainly warn about? A. The Great Barrier Reef brings less money each year. B. The Great Barrier Reef is losing its global importance. C. The Great Barrier Reef’s survival needs urgent action. D. The Great Barrier Reef will be replaced by new tourist attractions. 33. What is one major threat to the Great Barrier Reef? A. Overfishing. B. Sea warming. C. Tourism growth. D. Invasive species. 34. Why is the Queensland Government criticized? A. It wants to use coal for longer. B. It plans to close the Reef to tourists. C. It ignores the Reef’s economic value. D. It has refused to support the “Reef 2050 Plan”. 35. What is the best title for this text? A. A Natural Wonder in Danger B. The Future of Coral Farming C How Tourism Shapes Australia D. Climate Change and Its Harms 第二节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5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。 After 20 years of teaching, I thought I’d heard every excuse from students trying to get a better grade. But recently I heard a new complaint: “My grade doesn’t reflect the effort I put into this course.” ___36___ In the past, students understood it and they knew “A” required great work. Yet today, Generation Z expect to be rewarded for the quantity of their effort rather than the quality of their knowledge. In surveys, two-thirds of college students say that “trying hard” should be a factor in their grades. ___37___ It’s the result of a misunderstanding about one popular educational theories. Psychologists have long found that rewarding effort helps form a strong work ethic and reinforces learning. ___38___ We’ve gone from praising effort to treating it as an end in itself. We’ve failed to remind them that working hard doesn’t guarantee doing a good job. There’s a reason we award Olympic medals to the athletes who swim the fastest, not the ones who train the hardest. What counts is not mere effort but the progress and result. The ideal response to a disappointing grade is not to complain that your diligence wasn’t rewarded. ___39___ Trying harder isn’t always the answer. Sometimes it’s working smarter, and other times, it’s working on something else altogether. Devotion is just one of the many contributing factors to achievement. Ability, opportunity and luck count, too. Now in my classes, students are assessed on the quality of their written essays, class participation, group presentations and final papers or exams. I make it clear that “A” is not granted for effort itself; it is earned through mastery of knowledge. The true measure of learning is not the time and energy you put in. ___40___ A. Teachers are to blame. B. It is to ask how to improve. C. This isn’t Generation Z’s fault. D. “B” may not fully reflect your dedication. E. It’s the knowledge and skills you acquire. F. High marks are for excellence, not perseverance. G. But we’ve taken the practice of celebrating diligence too far. 第三部分 语言知识运用(共四节，满分35分) 第一节 完形填空(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Josiah Jackson has played the piano since age 4 and he started his piano-tuning (钢琴调音) career at 18.

He then played a bit of “Pirates of the Caribbean”: the piece that inspired him to ____48____ the piano when he was younger. Even with a quick tuning, the piano sounded really good. He ____49____ had time to admire his work, but he had achieved his goal: the transformation of the piano. It was again ready to be played by anyone with a few minutes to spare ____50____ flights. He left a ____51____ on the piano — “No drinks near piano, please!” A video was posted on TikTok showing how he cleaned and tuned the piano, which has received more than 1,500 ____52____ . “So glad the piano is ____53____ , Thank you for bringing a new life to the piano!” one person wrote. “I’m ____54____ that people are playing the piano again,” Jackson told a news reporter, “Piano tuners are becoming more and more ____55____ , and I’m one of the few who could fix it.

Just as soon as the tiny creature started exploring his surroundings, I saw him trying to eat a dead leaf. Obviously, he was hungry, so I told him, “Stay right here, and I’ll be RIGHT back.” When I returned, the spot was completely empty—no squirrel in sight. But as I spread some sunflower seeds, the baby squirrel reappeared. More amazingly, after enjoying the seeds, he tried to get into my bag and nested in my scarf. “Is he expecting me to take him home? Where is his mother?” I thought. After several hours of observation by the roadside, I confirmed that this baby squirrel was indeed alone, with no family members around. Finally, I took him home. I spent the next two days basically acting as his mother, helping him eat, drink, and sleep. Despite my best efforts, this baby squirrel still nearly choked to death on a bite of banana. When I saw the poor squirrel barely clinging to life, my heart almost stopped. In a panic, I rushed to the nearest animal hospital. I was worried all the way, positioning him upside down as I’d seen in pet first-aid videos, but he still showed no reaction. As we arrived at the hospital, the vet (兽医) quickly cleared his throat with a professional thin tube. “Tiny patients crash fast! Fortunately, he is saved!” When I heard her words, my anxious heart finally settled. After a short break, I felt it okay to take him home. As we walked out of the room, something suddenly caught my squirrel’s attention. Before I could react, he slipped from my scarf, with his eyes fixed on something across the room. There, in a cage, lay an injured adult squirrel. The vet told me that the adult squirrel had been hit by a car and was receiving treatment. Seeing my baby squirrel staring at the adult one carefully, I asked if they might be related. The vet thought it unlikely, but out of curiosity, we decided to find out. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右；（2）请按如下格式作答。 I carefully placed the baby squirrel near the injured adult’s cage. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ It warmed my heart to see my baby squirrel reunite with his mother! ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 西安中学2025-2026学年度第一学期期末考试 高二英语试题 (时间：120分钟 满分：100分) 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分20分) 第一节 (共5小题;每小题1分，满分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,并标在试卷的相应位置。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. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 When will the speakers meet?

C 20. A 【解析】 【原文】 M: I’m quite often asked how I became a dress designer. For me, it was something I always wanted to do. However, because my mother was a university teacher and my father a doctor, they found it hard to accept that designing clothes could be a serious job. Anyway, they said I had to do a year’s business course first after high school. I didn’t like it at the time, but later, it made a big difference to me. And the other thing I did during that year was to get a part-time job in the office of a small factory making good quality clothes. Then I did two years at the local art college. I wanted to go to London straight away, but my parents insisted. So I stayed at home until I won a prize for a design which actually gave me a place at a London college for nine months. I went on to spend three wonderful years in Milan. Then I got the job in New York for a year, which was really exciting, but unbelievably stressful. I think it is probably because I was too far away from my family and missed them very much. So, I ended up in London, starting my own company. 第二部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1.5分，满分22.5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 Sports are not a modern invention. People around the world have enjoyed exciting and meaningful sports since ancient times. Here are some examples of ancient sports from different cultures. Egyptian Pharaohs’ Running Race In ancient Egypt, kings demonstrated their physical strength by running during the Sed Festival. This special event took place after a king had ruled for 30 years. For example, Pharaoh Djoser ran around the temple for a long time to prove he was still healthy and strong. Minoan Bull-Leaping The Minoan people created a very dangerous sport called bull-leaping. In this event, athletes would run directly at a charging bull, grab its horns (角) and leap over its back. Wall paintings from the Palace of Knossos show these exciting scenes. Mesopotamian Wrestling Ancient Mesopotamians practiced wrestling and boxing. Stone carvings show strong fighters wearing skirts during matches. These matches were intense, with fighters wrestling like wild animals. Ancient Chinese Archery (射箭) In the Zhou Dynasty’s royal education, archery was a required skill for men. Competitions, called “sheyi”, were held with strict rules and ceremonies. To win, a person needed both physical skill and qualities such as grace, self-control and respect. These contests often took place in temples and served to promote moral values and social order. Although ancient sports varied widely in form and intent, they universally highlighted the value of skill. Beyond mere competition, these activities were deeply integrated into their societies, reflecting cultural beliefs and shaping a sense of community. 21. What do Minoan bull-leaping and Mesopotamian wrestling have in common? A. They followed strict ceremonies. B. They were created to honor kings. C. They were physically demanding. D They included fighting against animals. 22. What is special about ancient Chinese archery? A. It had flexible rules. B. It helped build character. C. It encouraged self-expression. D. It served as public entertainment. 23. What is the purpose of the text? A. To stress the importance of sports. B. To inform readers of modern sports. C. To discuss the possible origins of sports. D. To show some ancient sports and their cultural value. 【答案】21. C 22. B 23. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了四种古代文明中的体育项目：埃及的法老赛跑、米诺斯的跃牛仪式、美索不达米亚的摔跤和中国周朝的射箭。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据Minoan Bull-Leaping部分的“In this event, athletes would run directly at a charging bull, grab its horns (角) and leap over its back.(在这个项目中，运动员会直接冲向一头正在冲过来的公牛，抓住它的角，跳过它的背。)”和Mesopotamian Wrestling部分的“These matches were intense, with fighters wrestling like wild animals.(这些比赛非常激烈，选手们像野兽一样摔跤。)”可知，这两项运动的体能要求都很高。故选C。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Ancient Chinese Archery (射箭)部分的“To win, a person needed both physical skill and qualities such as grace, self-control and respect.(要赢得比赛，一个人既需要身体技能，也需要优雅、自我控制和尊重等品质。)”可知，射箭比赛不仅是技术的较量，还需要参赛者拥有优雅、自我控制和尊重等品质。故选B。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Although ancient sports varied widely in form and intent, they universally highlighted the value of skill. Beyond mere competition, these activities were deeply integrated into their societies, reflecting cultural beliefs and shaping a sense of community.(尽管古代体育运动的形式和目的各不相同，但它们都强调技术的价值。除了单纯的竞争之外，这些活动还深深融入了他们的社会，反映了文化信仰，塑造了一种社区意识。)”可知，文章旨在说明古代体育的文化价值。故选D。 B I’m an 18-year-old pre-medical student, tall and good-looking, with two short story books and quite a number of essays to my credit. Why am I singing such praises of myself? Just to explain that the attainment of self-pride comes from a great deal of self-love, and to attain it, one must first learn to accept oneself as one is. That was where my struggle began. Born and raised in Africa, I had always taken my African origin as burden. My self-dislike was further fueled when my family had to relocate to Norway, where I attended a high school. Compared to all the white girls around me, with their golden hair and delicate lips, I, a black girl, had curly hair and full, red lips. My nose often had a thin sheet of sweat on it, whatever the weather was. I just wanted to bury myself in my shell crying “I’m so different!” What also contributed to my self-dislike was my occasional stuttering (口吃), which had weakened my self-confidence. It always stood between me and any fine opportunity. I’d taken it as an excuse to avoid any public speaking sessions, and unknowingly let it rule over me. Fortunately, as I grew older, there came a turning point. One day a white girl caught my eye on the school bus when she suddenly turned back. To my astonishment, she had a thin sheet of sweat on her nose too, and it was in November! “Wow,” I whispered to myself, “this isn’t a genetic disorder after all. It’s perfectly normal.” Days later, my life took another twist. Searching the Internet for stuttering cures, I accidentally learned that such famous people as Isaac Newton and Winston Churchill also stuttered. I felt a weight lift off my shoulders, then an idea suddenly hit me — if I’m smart, I shouldn’t allow my stuttering to stand between me and my success. Another boost to my self-confidence came days later as I was watching the news about Oprah Winfrey, the famous talk show host and writer — she’s black too! Whenever I think of her story and my former dislike of my color, I’m practically filled with shame. Today, I’ve grown to accept what I am with pride; it simply gives me feeling of uniqueness. The idea of self-love has taken on a whole new meaning for me: there’s always something fantastic about us, and what we need to do is learn to appreciate it. 24. What affected the author’s adjustment to her school life in Norway? A. Social discrimination. B. Her appearance. C. Her changing emotions. D. The climate in Norway. 25. How did the author feel on noticing the similarity between her and the girl on the bus? A. Shocked and ashamed. B. Confused and terrified. C. Blessed and proud. D. Amazed and relieved. 26. What lesson did the author learn from the cases of Newton and Churchill? A. Great minds speak alike. B. Celebrities can’t live with their flaws. C. Stuttering is no barrier to success. D. Wisdom counts more than hard work. 27. What can we learn from this passage? A. Pride comes before a fall. B. Comparison is the thief of joy. C. Every cloud has a silver lining. D. Love and acceptance is the ultimate gift. 【答案】24. B 25. D 26. C 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者作为一个在非洲出生长大的黑人女孩，因外貌和口吃在挪威学校生活时自我厌恶，后通过一些经历学会接纳自我、重拾自信的故事。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Born and raised in Africa, I had always taken my African origin as burden. My self - dislike was further fueled when my family had to relocate to Norway, where I attended a high school. Compared to all the white girls around me, with their golden hair and delicate lips, I, a black girl, had curly hair and full, red lips.(我在非洲出生长大，一直把自己的非洲血统视为负担。当我的家人不得不搬到挪威，我在那里上高中时，我的自我厌恶进一步加剧。与我周围所有有着金色头发和精致嘴唇的白人女孩相比，我这个黑人女孩有着卷曲的头发和饱满的红唇)”可知，是作者的外貌影响了她在挪威学校生活的适应。故选B。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“One day a white girl caught my eye on the school bus when she suddenly turned back. To my astonishment, she had a thin sheet of sweat on her nose too, and it was in November! “Wow,” I whispered to myself, “this isn’t a genetic disorder after all. It’s perfectly normal.”(一天，在学校的公共汽车上，一个白人女孩突然转过身来，引起了我的注意。令我惊讶的是，她的鼻子上也有一层薄薄的汗，而且是在11月！“哇，”我轻声对自己说，“这毕竟不是遗传病。这很正常。”)”以及后文作者心态的转变可知，作者注意到她和公共汽车上的女孩的相似之处时感到惊讶和如释重负。故选D。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Searching the Internet for stuttering cures, I accidentally learned that such famous people as Isaac Newton and Winston Churchill also stuttered. I felt a weight lift off my shoulders, then an idea suddenly hit me — if I’m smart, I shouldn’t allow my stuttering to stand between me and my success.(我在网上搜索治疗口吃的方法时，偶然得知像艾萨克·牛顿和温斯顿·丘吉尔这样的名人也口吃。我感到如释重负，然后一个想法突然闪过我的脑海——如果我很聪明，我就不应该让我的口吃阻碍我和我的成功)”可知，作者从牛顿和丘吉尔的例子中学到了口吃不是成功的障碍。故选C。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Today, I’ve grown to accept what I am with pride; it simply gives me feeling of uniqueness. The idea of self - love has taken on a whole new meaning for me: there’s always something fantastic about us, and what we need to do is learn to appreciate it.(今天，我已经骄傲地接受了真实的自己；它只是给了我一种独特的感觉。自我爱的观念对我来说有了全新的意义：我们身上总有一些很棒的东西，我们需要做的就是学会欣赏它)”结合文章主要讲述了作者作为一个在非洲出生长大的黑人女孩，因外貌和口吃在挪威学校生活时自我厌恶，后通过一些经历学会接纳自我、重拾自信的故事。可推知，我们能从这篇文章中学到：爱和接纳是最终的礼物。故选D。 C Have you ever joyously stepped out to your backyard garden, freshly brewed coffee in hand, only to find your cared-for plants and herbs wilted (枯萎的) and dying? Was the soil too dry? Did pests find their way in? During times like these, some frustrated gardeners may wish their fickle ficus (榕树) would just tell them what it needs. A new Microsoft-partnered project in the UK is trying to see if that concept can be demonstrated in the real-world. Next year, the Royal Horticultural Society in England will show off an “intelligent garden” that uses an AI model to monitor the garden’s environment and inform gardeners when it needs care. Visitors can ask the AI-powered garden questions. The model could then respond with phrases like “I need a bit more water,” or “I could use a haircut” depending on data captured in the soil. The technical components of the garden are the product of a partnership between AIstart-up Avande and Microsoft. The garden relies on a network of sensors nestled throughout the garden measuring environmental factors like soil moisture, alkalinity (碱度), and nutrient levels as well as wind and projected rainfall. All of that data is then sent to a specially designed AI model at the back of the garden. The model, powered by Microsoft’s Azure Open AI Service, can then analyze those factors and inform gardeners on best feeding, watering, or trimming. In theory, insights provided by models like this one could help gardeners allocate resources efficiently and avoid over-watering plants before rainfall, both of which can aid in sustainability efforts. Those tools could be a welcome convenience for casual growers or businesses looking to reduce costs. It’s unclear, however, whether even the best models can account for something abnormal and individual plant tendencies with the same level of care as experienced gardeners. Several currently available apps also use AI to help gardeners identify unknown plants by comparing a photo of them against a large online database. But as past reporting has shown,simply trusting an AI to tell you whether a plant or fungi of unknown origin is safe to eat isn’t wise, and could have dangerous results. 28. What will AI be used to do in gardening according to the text? A. Look after the plants in place of gardeners. B. Help the gardeners interact with the plants. C. Improve the condition of soil in the garden. D. Design the environmentally-friendly gardens. 29. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. How the intelligent garden works. B. Why the intelligent garden is popular. C. How the intelligent garden was invented. D. What advantages the intelligent garden has. 30. What does the underlined word insights mean in paragraph 4? A. Experience. B. Data. C. Methods. D. Tests. 31. What is the author’s attitude toward AI’s use in gardening? A. Unclear. B. Approving. C. Objective. D. Negative. 【答案】28. B 29. A 30. B 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述英国皇家园艺学会将展示一个“智能花园”，该花园利用人工智能模型监测环境并在植物需要照顾时通知园丁。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Next year, the Royal Horticultural Society in England will show off an ‘intelligent garden’ that uses an AI model to monitor the garden’s environment and inform gardeners when it needs care. Visitors can ask the AI-powered garden questions. The model could then respond with phrases …(明年，英国皇家园艺学会将展示一个“智能花园”，它使用人工智能模型来监测花园的环境，并在需要护理时通知园丁。游客可以向人工智能花园提问。然后，模型可以用短语进行响应……)”可知，英国皇家园艺学会将展示一个使用人工智能模型监测花园环境并在需要时通知园丁的“智能花园”，游客还可以向这个由人工智能驱动的花园提问。因此，人工智能在园艺中将被用来帮助园丁与植物互动。故选B项。 【29题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“The garden relies on a network of sensors nestled throughout the garden measuring environmental factors like soil moisture, alkalinity (碱度), and nutrient levels as well as wind and projected rainfall. All of that data is then sent to a specially designed AI model at the back of the garden. (花园依靠遍布花园的传感器网络来测量环境因素，如土壤湿度、碱度、营养水平以及风和预计降雨量。然后，所有这些数据被发送到花园后面一个特别设计的人工智能模型。)”以及“The model, powered by Microsoft’s Azure Open AI Service, can then analyze those factors and inform gardeners on best feeding, watering, or trimming.(该模型由微软的Azure开放人工智能服务提供支持，然后可以分析这些因素，并告知园丁最好的喂养、浇水或修剪。)”可知，本段主要介绍了智能花园的技术依靠遍布花园的传感器网络测量环境因素，并将所有这些数据发送到花园后部的一个专门设计的人工智能模型，该模型由微软的Azure提供支持，然后分析这些因素，并向园丁提供最佳施肥、浇水和修剪的建议。因此，本段主要讲述的是智能花园的工作原理。故选A项。 【30题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第三段中“The garden relies on a network of sensors nestled throughout the garden measuring environmental factors like soil moisture, alkalinity (碱度), and nutrient levels as well as wind and projected rainfall. All of that data is then sent to a specially designed AI model at the back of the garden. (花园依靠遍布花园的传感器网络来测量环境因素，如土壤湿度、碱度、营养水平以及风和预计降雨量。然后，所有这些数据被发送到花园后面一个特别设计的人工智能模型。)”以及根据画线词后的内容“…provided by models like this one could help gardeners allocate resources efficiently and avoid over-watering plants before rainfall, both of which can aid in sustainability efforts(像这样的模型提供的……可以帮助园丁有效地分配资源，避免在降雨前过度浇水，这两者都有助于可持续发展)”可知，花园依靠遍布花园的传感器网络来测量环境因素，如土壤湿度、碱度、营养水平以及风和预计降雨量。然后，所有这些数据被发送到花园后面一个特别设计的人工智能模型；园丁高效地分配资源，避免在降雨前过度浇水，实现这两者的条件是该模型所提供的相关信息。由此可知，画线词意思为“信息，数据”与B选项“Data.(数据，信息)”为同义词。故选B项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“In theory, insights provided by models like this one could help gardeners allocate resources efficiently and avoid over-watering plants before rainfall, both of which can aid in sustainability efforts. Those tools could be a welcome convenience for casual growers or businesses looking to reduce costs. It’s unclear, however, whether even the best models can account for something abnormal and individual plant tendencies with the same level of care as experienced gardeners(从理论上讲，像这样的模型提供的见解可以帮助园丁有效地分配资源，避免在降雨前过度浇水，这两者都有助于可持续发展。这些工具对于临时种植者或希望降低成本的企业来说可能是一个受欢迎的便利。然而，目前尚不清楚的是，即使是最好的模型，是否也能以与经验丰富的园丁相同的护理水平来解释一些异常和个别植物的趋势)”可知，作者既提到了人工智能在园艺方面的积极作用，如帮助园丁高效地分配资源和避免在降雨前过度浇水，也指出了其局限性，即即使是最好的模型也不一定能像经验丰富的园丁那样照顾到异常情况和个体植物的习性。因此，作者对人工智能在园艺方面的使用持客观态度。故选C项。 D A new study has revealed the vast majority of Australians worry about what might happen to the Great Barrier Reef, the country’s largest natural wonder. Environmental groups warn authorities that bold action is needed now to secure its future. The report, commissioned by the Great Barrier Reef Foundation (GBRF), shows that the Reef is still one of the world’s most valuable ecosystems, but its survival cannot be guaranteed without major investment and strong climate action. The Reef brings about 9 billion Australian dollars to the economy each year and supports around 77,000 jobs. Economists estimate that, with urgent climate efforts, it could bring another 124 billion dollars in benefits over the next 50 years. But without action, experts warn, it may not survive at all. Public support for saving the Reef is also strong. A national survey found that 98% of Australians believe losing the Reef would be a “national tragedy,” and nearly three-quarters see it as “irreplaceable.” Nine in ten are worried about climate change, and 78% say protecting the Reef for future generations is very important. “The Reef is too precious to lose,” said GBRF director Anna Marsden, adding that saving it is vital not just for the environment, but also for the millions of people who depend on it. Scientists report that the Reef has suffered record coral losses in recent years due to warming seas and pollution. Since 2016, five mass bleaching (白化) events have damaged large parts of the Reef, including two in 2024 and 2025. Run-off from farms continues to reduce water quality, making recovery harder. To save the Reef, the Australian and Queensland governments have launched the “Reef 2050 Plan,” a long-term program to improve water quality and expand protected areas. However, debate continues after Queensland decided to extend coal use beyond 2050. Supporters say the plan is practical, while others warn that continued fossil fuel use puts the Reef’s future at serious risk. 32. What does the GBRF report mainly warn about? A. The Great Barrier Reef brings less money each year. B. The Great Barrier Reef is losing its global importance. C. The Great Barrier Reef’s survival needs urgent action. D. The Great Barrier Reef will be replaced by new tourist attractions. 33. What is one major threat to the Great Barrier Reef? A. Overfishing. B. Sea warming. C. Tourism growth. D. Invasive species. 34. Why is the Queensland Government criticized? A. It wants to use coal for longer. B. It plans to close the Reef to tourists. C. It ignores the Reef’s economic value. D. It has refused to support the “Reef 2050 Plan”. 35. What is the best title for this text? A. A Natural Wonder in Danger B. The Future of Coral Farming C How Tourism Shapes Australia D. Climate Change and Its Harms 【答案】32. C 33. B 34. A 35. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文通过研究报告和数据，说明大堡礁面临的气候威胁、生态现状及保护争议，强调采取紧急行动的必要性。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The report, commissioned by the Great Barrier Reef Foundation (GBRF), shows that the Reef is still one of the world’s most valuable ecosystems, but its survival cannot be guaranteed without major investment and strong climate action.(这份由大堡礁基金会（GBRF）委托编写的报告表明，大堡礁仍是世界上最具价值的生态系统之一，但若不进行大规模投资并采取强有力的气候行动，其生存将无法得到保障)”可知，GBRF报告主要警告大堡礁的生存状况亟需采取紧急措施。故选C。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Scientists report that the Reef has suffered record coral losses in recent years due to warming seas and pollution. Since 2016, five mass bleaching (白化) events have damaged large parts of the Reef, including two in 2024 and 2025. Run-off from farms continues to reduce water quality, making recovery harder.(科学家报告称，近年来由于海水变暖和污染，珊瑚礁遭受了创纪录的珊瑚损失。自2016年以来，已经发生了五次大规模珊瑚白化事件，这些事件破坏了珊瑚礁的大片区域，其中包括2024年和2025年的两次。农场的污水排放持续降低水质，这使得珊瑚礁的恢复变得更加困难)”可知，大堡礁面临的最大威胁是海水变暖。故选B。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“However, debate continues after Queensland decided to extend coal use beyond 2050. Supporters say the plan is practical, while others warn that continued fossil fuel use puts the Reef’s future at serious risk.(然而，在昆士兰州决定将煤炭使用期限延长至2050年之后，相关争论仍在继续。支持者称该计划切实可行，而反对者则警告称，持续使用化石燃料会使大堡礁的未来面临严重威胁)”可知，昆士兰州政府会受到批评是因为它希望延长使用煤炭的时间。故选A。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“A new study has revealed the vast majority of Australians worry about what might happen to the Great Barrier Reef, the country’s largest natural wonder. Environmental groups warn authorities that bold action is needed now to secure its future.(一项新的研究显示，绝大多数澳大利亚人都对大堡礁（该国最大的自然奇观）的未来感到担忧。环保组织警告政府当局，现在必须采取果断措施来确保大堡礁的未来)”结合本文通过研究报告和数据，说明大堡礁面临的气候威胁、生态现状及保护争议，强调采取紧急行动的必要性可知，A选项“一处濒危的自然奇观”最符合文章标题。故选A。 第二节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5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。 After 20 years of teaching, I thought I’d heard every excuse from students trying to get a better grade. But recently I heard a new complaint: “My grade doesn’t reflect the effort I put into this course.” ___36___ In the past, students understood it and they knew “A” required great work. Yet today, Generation Z expect to be rewarded for the quantity of their effort rather than the quality of their knowledge. In surveys, two-thirds of college students say that “trying hard” should be a factor in their grades. ___37___ It’s the result of a misunderstanding about one popular educational theories. Psychologists have long found that rewarding effort helps form a strong work ethic and reinforces learning. ___38___ We’ve gone from praising effort to treating it as an end in itself. We’ve failed to remind them that working hard doesn’t guarantee doing a good job. There’s a reason we award Olympic medals to the athletes who swim the fastest, not the ones who train the hardest. What counts is not mere effort but the progress and result. The ideal response to a disappointing grade is not to complain that your diligence wasn’t rewarded. ___39___ Trying harder isn’t always the answer. Sometimes it’s working smarter, and other times, it’s working on something else altogether. Devotion is just one of the many contributing factors to achievement. Ability, opportunity and luck count, too. Now in my classes, students are assessed on the quality of their written essays, class participation, group presentations and final papers or exams. I make it clear that “A” is not granted for effort itself; it is earned through mastery of knowledge. The true measure of learning is not the time and energy you put in. ___40___ A Teachers are to blame. B. It is to ask how to improve. C. This isn’t Generation Z’s fault. D. “B” may not fully reflect your dedication. E. It’s the knowledge and skills you acquire. F. High marks are for excellence, not perseverance. G. But we’ve taken the practice of celebrating diligence too far. 【答案】36. F 37. C 38. G 39. B 40. E 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了当下学生将努力与成绩挂钩的现象，阐明成绩应基于知识掌握而非单纯付出的观点。 【36题详解】 根据空前“But recently I heard a new complaint: “My grade doesn’t reflect the effort I put into this course.” (但最近我听到了一个新的抱怨：“我的成绩没有体现出我在这门课上付出的努力。”)”以及空后“In the past, students understood it and they knew “A” required great work. Yet today, Generation Z expect to be rewarded for the quantity of their effort rather than the quality of their knowledge. (过去，学生们都明白这一点，也知道A级成绩需要实打实的出色表现。然而如今，Z世代期望自己付出的努力多少能得到回报，而非依据掌握知识的质量来评判)”可知，此空应点明成绩的评定标准，即高分奖励的是优秀成果而非努力过程，F选项“High marks are for excellence, not perseverance. (高分是对优秀成果的奖励，而非对坚持不懈的努力的认可)”承接前文的学生抱怨，且引出后文的古今对比，符合语境。故选F项。 【37题详解】 根据空后“It’s the result of a misunderstanding about one popular educational theories. (这是对一种流行的教育理论产生误解所导致的结果)”可知，此空应表明Z世代的这种想法并非其自身的过错，C选项“This isn’t Generation Z’s fault. (这并不是Z世代的错)”引出后文对该现象成因的分析，符合语境。故选C项。 【38题详解】 根据空前“Psychologists have long found that rewarding effort helps form a strong work ethic and reinforces learning. (心理学家早就发现，奖励努力有助于培养强烈的职业道德，还能强化学习效果)”以及空后“We’ve gone from praising effort to treating it as an end in itself. We’ve failed to remind them that working hard doesn’t guarantee doing a good job. (我们已经从赞扬努力，变成了将努力本身当作最终目的。我们没能提醒他们，努力并不一定能保证把事情做好)”可知，此空应形成转折，指出如今人们对赞扬努力这件事做得过了头，G选项“But we’ve taken the practice of celebrating diligence too far. (但我们把赞扬勤奋这件事做得太过火了)”承接前文的正确理念，且引出后文的过度做法，符合语境。故选G项。 【39题详解】 根据空前“The ideal response to a disappointing grade is not to complain that your diligence wasn’t rewarded. (面对不理想的成绩，理想的反应不是抱怨自己的勤奋没有得到回报)”以及空后“Trying harder isn’t always the answer. Sometimes it’s working smarter, and other times, it’s working on something else altogether. (更努力地尝试并不总是解决问题的办法。有时候需要更聪明地学习，还有些时候则需要彻底转向其他方向)”可知，此空应说明面对不理想成绩的正确做法是寻求改进方法，B选项“It is to ask how to improve. (而是应该思考如何改进)”与前文的错误做法形成对比，且引出后文的具体建议，符合语境。故选B项。 【40题详解】 根据空前“The true measure of learning is not the time and energy you put in. (衡量学习的真正标准，不是你投入了多少时间和精力)”可知，此空应点明衡量学习的真正标准是学到的知识和技能，E选项“It’s the knowledge and skills you acquire. (而是你所掌握的知识和技能)”与前文形成“不是……而是……”的逻辑关系，符合语境。故选E项。 第三部分 语言知识运用(共四节，满分35分) 第一节 完形填空(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Josiah Jackson has played the piano since age 4 and he started his piano-tuning (钢琴调音) career at 18.

Just as soon as the tiny creature started exploring his surroundings, I saw him trying to eat a dead leaf. Obviously, he was hungry, so I told him, “Stay right here, and I’ll be RIGHT back.” When I returned, the spot was completely empty—no squirrel in sight. But as I spread some sunflower seeds, the baby squirrel reappeared. More amazingly, after enjoying the seeds, he tried to get into my bag and nested in my scarf. “Is he expecting me to take him home? Where is his mother?” I thought. After several hours of observation by the roadside, I confirmed that this baby squirrel was indeed alone, with no family members around. Finally, I took him home. I spent the next two days basically acting as his mother, helping him eat, drink, and sleep. Despite my best efforts, this baby squirrel still nearly choked to death on a bite of banana. When I saw the poor squirrel barely clinging to life, my heart almost stopped. In a panic, I rushed to the nearest animal hospital. I was worried all the way, positioning him upside down as I’d seen in pet first-aid videos, but he still showed no reaction. As we arrived at the hospital, the vet (兽医) quickly cleared his throat with a professional thin tube. “Tiny patients crash fast! Fortunately, he is saved!” When I heard her words, my anxious heart finally settled. After a short break, I felt it okay to take him home. As we walked out of the room, something suddenly caught my squirrel’s attention. Before I could react, he slipped from my scarf, with his eyes fixed on something across the room. There, in a cage, lay an injured adult squirrel. The vet told me that the adult squirrel had been hit by a car and was receiving treatment. Seeing my baby squirrel staring at the adult one carefully, I asked if they might be related. The vet thought it unlikely, but out of curiosity, we decided to find out. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右；（2）请按如下格式作答。 I carefully placed the baby squirrel near the injured adult’s cage. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ It warmed my heart to see my baby squirrel reunite with his mother! ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 I carefully placed the baby squirrel near the injured adult’s cage. The tiny creature let out a soft, high-pitched chirp immediately. To everyone’s surprise, the adult squirrel, who had been lying quietly with its eyes closed, suddenly lifted its head and fixed its gaze on the baby. It twitched its nose rapidly and responded with a low, gentle sound. The baby squirrel scrambled closer to the cage, pressing its tiny paws against the wire mesh. The vet and I exchanged astonished looks — this was no random reaction. A quick DNA test later confirmed our guess: they were mother and son. It warmed my heart to see my baby squirrel reunite with his mother! I decided to leave the baby squirrel at the animal hospital so he could stay with his mother during her recovery. Every few days, I visited them with a bag of sunflower seeds, watching as the mother groomed her baby’s fur and the little one snuggled up to her side. A month later, the vet called to tell me the mother squirrel had fully recovered and that they could be released back into the wild. On the release day, I watched them dart into the trees together. As I waved goodbye, I knew I had given them the best gift — a second chance at being a family. 【解析】 【导语】本文以“救助幼松鼠”为线索展开，讲述了作者偶遇饥饿的幼松鼠并带回家照料，幼松鼠误食香蕉险些丧命，送医救治后意外发现笼中受伤成年松鼠竟是其母亲，最终助力它们母子团聚并重返自然的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ① 由第一段首句“我小心翼翼地把小松鼠放在受伤的成年松鼠的笼子附近。”可知，接下来可描写幼松鼠与成年松鼠的互动反应、二者的亲缘确认过程，体现母子间的本能联结。 ② 由第二段首句“看到我的小松鼠和妈妈团聚，我的心都暖了！”可知，接下来可描写作者的决定、后续探望的温馨场景、成年松鼠康复情况以及最终将母子俩放归自然的结局。 2. 续写线索： 幼松鼠靠近笼子发出叫声 —— 成年松鼠本能回应 ——DNA 检测确认母子关系 ——作者留幼松鼠陪伴母松鼠治疗 —— 定期探望投喂 —— 母松鼠康复 —— 共同放归自然 3.词类激活： 行为类 ①抬起：lift/raise ②抽动：twitch/jerk ③决定：decide/make up my mind 情绪类 ①惊讶的：astonished/shocked ②使我心生暖意：warm my heart/touch me deeply/fill my heart with warmth 【点睛】【高分句型1】To everyone’s surprise, the adult squirrel, who had been lying quietly with its eyes closed, suddenly lifted its head and fixed its gaze on the baby.（运用了who引导的非限制性定语从句） 【高分句型2】A month later, the vet called to tell me the mother squirrel had fully recovered and that they could be released back into the wild.（运用了连接词that的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
