It combines language use with real-life communication, helping us apply what we’ve learned flexibly. Interacting with foreigners also boosts confidence and cross-cultural awareness. For the plan, we can cooperate with local scenic spots. First, we will train ourselves on basic guiding skills and scenic spot introductions. Then, we will arrange 2-hour weekend sessions, dividing students into groups to take turns guiding visitors. This ensures everyone gets practice. Yours, Li Hua Possible version 2： English speech competitions Dear Mr. Smith, I prefer “English speech competitions ”because they enhance public speaking skills and logical thinking. Preparing speeches also encourages us to accumulate vocabulary and polish expressions. Regarding the plan, we can set a theme like “My Dream Life ”. After 2 weeks of preparation, we will hold a class-level competition. I want to invite you and English teachers as judges, scoring based on content, fluency and pronunciation. After that we can award certificates to winners to increase motivation. Yours, Li Hua 6． 读后续写： 续写范文 Para. 1:The next morning, Brenda took a deep breath and walked to the van. A wave of nervousness washed over her as she knocked gently on the door. At the sight of Brenda, Maud wore a warm smile as usual, took her hand and invited her to step inside the camper van, and Brenda was surprised to find it messy but full of life. So ashamed was she that she felt her face burning. Lowering her head, she said in a low voice,“Maud, I’m truly sorry for how I treated you these days. I cared too much about keeping things tidy and forgot to be kind.”Hearing these words, Maud patted her shoulder softly, replying with a broad smile,“Don’t worry about it, dear.”At that moment, the van was filled with warmth, with sunlight streaming through the window and lighting up every corner. And then Maud and Brenda made an appointment to attend the following folk music festival together. Para. 2:By the time the festival ended, they were good friends. Brenda took her to explore the town’s most beautiful spots. Maud shared interesting travel stories with her---like the beautiful sunsets he had seen on the roads and the kind people he had met. Sometimes,they sat together and enjoyed the folk music, with Maud playing the guitar. Before leaving, Brenda helped Maud fix the flat tire of the van. In return, she handed Brenda a hand-painted postcard with a sentence, “Thank you for the unexpected encounters in life.” From then on, the postcard served as a reminder----accept different personalities means embracing a wider world. There is no doubt that it has become the most unforgettable experience, which Brenda will treasure forever in her life. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026届高三年级第一学期2月月考英语试卷 （时间120分钟 卷面满分120分） 一．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、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Teen Creative Writing Release your creativity as a writer, while learning the tricks of the trade.

B The cover of a serious science magazine recently caught everyone’s attention in a special way. It showed how trees communicate through an “internet of trees” made of fungal threads (菌丝) in the soil. But instead of looking like a regular science diagram, the image appeared as a beautiful Chinese silk embroidery (刺绣), with golden threads connecting the roots in an elegant pattern. This creative idea came from Dr. Elena. When she was still a university student, she often found it hard to explain complex plant relationships to people who weren’t experts. Scientific terms and complicated charts made it difficult for many to understand. One day, she remembered her childhood: her grandmother teaching her embroidery. She recalled how colorful threads wove together on fabric (布料), eventually forming beautiful patterns. It reminded her of the hidden connections between plants. “That’s it!” she suddenly realized. Inspired, she picked up her sketchbook and started creating. She drew seed spreading processes as delicate paper art, with seeds floating across the sky like tiny white sculptures. She gave a description of how plants send signals to each other using patterns similar to those found in textiles. At first, this was just her personal way to organize her thoughts, but other scientists saw her work and loved it. Over five years, her team created more than 800 of these scientific illustrations, with many featured in world-famous science magazines. “Science doesn’t need to feel cold and emotionless to be correct,” Elena said, pointing to her latest work. This painting shows how plants use sunlight to create energy as a colorful traditional woven artwork. “When we combine cultural heritage with scientific truth, we can build a bridge that helps everyone understand knowledge.” 4. Why did Dr. Elena start creating her scientific illustrations? A. To prove her scientific discoveries. B. To explain plant science clearly. C. To replace traditional diagrams. D. To show science can be incorrect. 5. What was the direct inspiration for Dr. Elena’s unique way of scientific drawings? A. A childhood memory of learning embroidery. B. The complex charts in science textbooks. C. The advice from her university professors. D. Her research on traditional Chinese art forms. 6. The reaction of other scientists to Dr. Elena’s work suggests that they _________. A. were initially skeptical about its value B. viewed it merely as decorative art C. considered it an oversimplification D. valued her creative approach 7. According to the passage，what is the key message Dr. Elena wants to convey? A. Science and culture should be separate. B. Digital tools are best for science art. C. Culture can bridge science and the public. D. Traditional science diagrams are useless. C Imagine if you could travel decades ahead and meet the person you will become. You would observe the slight shifts in your body language, the wisdom shown on your face, and the stories your hands would tell. You could witness the impact of your life’s journey reflected in your own eyes. This concept, once purely philosophical, has been brought to life through a new “Time Travel” filter (滤镜) on social media platforms. Unlike simple novelties, this filter uses advanced AI to recreate not just aging, but life experiences, suggesting how one’s entire behavior and appearance might evolve based on current personality indicators. Psychologists on these platforms have noted its “making people think” accuracy. The widespread reaction, particularly among millennials (千禧一代), reveals a complex mix of curiosity and a deep anxiety about the path their lives are taking, and more importantly, the person they are destined to become. What makes this filter unique? The “Time Travel” filter, featured in over 5 million posts, generates a short, moving video. It doesn’t just add wrinkles; it slightly changes the user’s gaze, body language, and even micro-expressions, proposing a future self shaped by years of imagined joys and challenges. The AI analyzes users’ current photos, video diaries, and even stated goals to create a personalized future digital character. Instagram is not the first to explore such concepts. Earlier apps offered basic “future self” motionless images. However, the dynamic and deeply personalized nature of this new filter has captured the public’s imagination. Tech influencer Elon Musk reportedly tried the filter and commented, “It’s fascinating, but it makes you question your present choices more than it predicts your future.” Many users debate the filter’s plausibility, comparing their projected future self to older relatives or mentors they admire. Some have applied the filter to photos of themselves from a decade ago to see how accurate the prediction might have been. On the contrary, a significant number have found the experience motivating. They report feeling a renewed sense of purpose, with comments like, “I look so at peace, it gives me hope,” becoming common. This filter has sparked not just a trend, but a global conversation about fate, choice, and the person we are all slowly becoming. 8. What is the main purpose of the first paragraph? A. To explain how the AI filter works. B. To introduce the topic in an imaginative way. C. To compare different social media platforms. D. To demonstrate future predictions are accurate. 9. What does Elon Musk’s comment on the filter imply? A. Its prediction is technologically accurate. B. Its main value is for entertainment. C. It makes people reflect on their current life. D. It helps people set clear future goals. 10. The underlined word “plausibility” is closest in meaning to _________. A. believability B. popularity C. complexity D. unreliability 11. What is the overall tone of the passage towards the “Time Travel” filter? A. Critical and dismissive.B. Promotional and enthusiastic. C. Balanced and thoughtful.D. Indifferent and unconcerned. D A new cross-disciplinary field termed “cosmic (宇宙的) heritage studies” has been proposed by an international team of archaeologists and space physicists. This discipline focuses on identifying, documenting and preserving historical objects from humanity’s ventures into space, treating them as valuable cultural heritage rather than mere space junk. “The objects we’ve left in space and on other planets and moons tell the story of human technological achievement and exploration spirit,” said Dr. Maria Chen, lead researcher from the European Space Heritage Foundation. “With increasing commercial space activities, these artifacts face never-before-seen risks of damage or destruction if not properly protected.” The concept builds upon traditional archaeological principles but adapts them to the unique conditions of space environment. Unlike Earth-based archaeology that deals with centuries-old artifacts, cosmic heritage must consider factors like radiation exposure, low-gravity effects, and orbital decay (衰减) that affect preservation. A central challenge for cosmic heritage researchers involves establishing criteria for what is considered as significant space heritage. “While obviously historically important items like the first satellite Sputnik or Apollo landing sites deserve protection, we also need to consider more recent objects that represent technological milestones,” Dr. Chen explained. The international community currently debates whether to preserve all human-made objects in space or only selected historically significant ones. The team recommends establishing an international record-keeping system for space artifacts and developing low-impact documentation methods using remote sensing technology. “We’re not suggesting we bring everything back to museums,” Dr. Chen clarified. “In many cases, digital preservation through high-resolution imaging and 3D modeling may be the most practical approach.” As space becomes increasingly accessible, cosmic heritage studies aim to ensure that future generations can understand and appreciate the material evidence of humanity’s first steps beyond Earth. The researchers hope their work will inform international space policy and promote responsible management of off-Earth cultural resources. 12. Why does Dr. Chen advocate for treating space objects as heritage? A. For their commercial value. B. For their historical stories. C. For their rescue urgency. D. For their display potential. 13. How does Dr. Chen view the current protection situation? A. Urgent due to commercial growth. B. Challenging due to harsh space conditions. C. Complex due to unclear ownership. D. Manageable with current laws. 14. What is the key challenge mentioned in paragraph 4? A. Agreeing on preservation technology. B. Setting international protection rules. C. Finding long-term conservation funds. D. Deciding which objects to protect. 15. What is the principle behind Dr. Chen’s recommended preservation method? A. Bringing items back to Earth. B. Building bases at sites. C. Using remote, low-impact tech. D. Making strict space laws. 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。 In life, we make many decisions that define who we truly are.

Her house was always tidy, and the street in front of her home was a model of cleanliness. Every morning, she would take a walk, admiring the nice flowers and the well-cleaned roads. One sunny morning, her peaceful world suddenly fell apart. An old camper van (露营车) pulled up right in front of her house. After many long trips, its coating of paint was coming off, making the van look even more worn-out. And one of the tires (轮胎) looked a bit flat. Brenda’s face immediately darkened. She thought it was an ugly mess that ruined the street’s tidiness. Soon, the owner of the van, Maud, a woman in her sixties, knocked on Brenda’s door. Maud had a warm smile and explained that she planned to stay in the town during the local folk music festival. She also asked if she could use Brenda’s bathroom. “I’m sorry, but that’s not convenient,” Brenda answered coldly, shutting the door before Maud could say more. She just wanted this “ugly woman” to leave as soon as possible. Over the next few days, Brenda tried everything to make Maud leave. She called the town office, saying the van was blocking traffic (it wasn’t), and even left a note asking her to move. But Maud just waved and smiled each time she saw Brenda, never complaining. At night, Brenda would hear soft music coming from the van—soft guitar strums (弹奏) and a sweet voice singing old folk songs. Slowly, her anger turned into doubt. “Am I being too unfriendly?” she wondered. Maud didn’t seem like a troublemaker and didn’t do anything wrong. She was a traveler and maybe she just wanted to make friends and enjoy the festival. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The next morning, Brenda took a deep breath and walked to the van. ______________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ By the time the festival ended, they were good friends. ______________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ( 1 ) 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $第一节听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题，每段对话读两遍。例如现在你有5秒钟的时间看试卷上的例题。你将听到以下内容。Excuse me, can you tell me how much the shirt is?

I was so happy to tell you about my remarkable year, which I describe as a grand adventure. It's tRicky to know where to start, so I think i'll just begin at the very beginning. That was when my dad decided to take our family on a trip around the world. He started planning at last january, but we didn't leave until july. After my exams in june, during my gap year, I wanted to keep my mind engaged. So miss Barnes, my old geography teacher, and mr. Green, from my amazing maths classes, kept in touch with me and provided plenty of assignments. My dad wanted to give us experience of things you can't get from books or T. V programs, you know, things like the amazing smells coming from the indian street food markets, or the breathtaking lie you encounter in deserts. He was right in the sahara. IT was amazing. And the real experience of meeting in making friends with people from diverse cultures was invaluable.
