(2025·武汉六校高二下期中)Give a man a fish, and he will eat for a day; teach him to fish, and he’ll eat for a lifetime.
In 1991, while teaching English in Ukraine, we did some sightseeing. One weekend in Kherson, a port city, I boarded the wrong ferry, going to somewhere I never knew. On the ferry I was recognised by two students at the college I was visiting. One of them was going to visit her parents at their “summerhouse”, a vegetable garden on a small island. When the young lady understood that I had no destination in mind, she invited me along and I agreed. It was the sort of visit with a family one hopes for, and rarely gets, in a foreign country. Her father was an amateur photographer, and since the fastest film he could get locally was ASA 64, he was thrilled that I could leave him a few rolls of ASA 400 color film. The mother prided herself on her cooking, but had limited supplies, so they walked around the island and invited several other families to a potluck supper. The main course was sturgeon (鲟), which was at least six feet long in the river. It was a gift of a fish that must have fed a few families for several days.
In 1965, I was studying German in Munich, Germany. I met a young American man who had been sent to Munich for business. He could not find the local branch of his company, and I gave him directions. When he left Munich, he gave me the food he’d been carrying, a can of gefilte fish, a sort of seasoned fish ball. I was feeling homesick, and this old favorite really hit the spot. A gift of canned gefilte fish seemed an improbable favor to return. But nearly 50 years later, I had a cousin who was working in Nairobi, Kenya. He wanted to organise an American-style Passover Seder (逾越节晚餐) for his friends, but could not find American-style gefilte fish in Kenya. While it usually comes in bottles, I was able to locate some packed in cans, and I mailed a box of canned gefilte fish to him from America.
24.What can we learn about the author’s visit to the Ukrainian family?( )
A.It was a hard-won chance. B.It had been long-expected.
C.It was served with many dishes. D.It lacked local cultural elements.
25.What does the underlined phrase “hit the spot” in paragraph 3 probably mean?( )
A.Stirred up emotions. B.Created a problem.
C.Started a tradition. D.Satisfied a need.
26.Why did the author choose gefilte fish in cans to mail to his cousin?( )
A.His cousin liked canned gefilte fish the most.
B.Canned gefilte fish was the author’s favorite.
C.He received canned gefilte fish and paid it forward.
D.Canned gefilte fish was an American culture symbol.
27.What is the author’s intention of writing this text?( )
A.To stress the importance of teaching skills.
B.To teach us how to react to an act of kindness.
C.To recommend us to seek help when necessary.
D.To encourage us to repay the people helping us.

(2025·福建宁德部分学校高二下期中)Baseball has served as more than just a sport throughout its history. One such period is the Great Recession (大衰退) of 2008, a time marked by financial hardship, unemployment, and uncertainty. Baseball, however, managed not just to survive but to provide hope, entertainment, and even a sense of normality to many.
As the Great Recession spread around the world starting in 2008, every sector faced significant challenges. For Major League Baseball (MLB), the impact was visible. Fans found themselves tightening their belts. Teams began offering flexible ticket pricing and promotions to families and individuals hit hardest by the economic downturn. “Dollar Night” promotions became more common, offering affordable entrance fees and snacks to ensure family visits remained possible.
While the Great Recession posed numerous challenges, it also coexisted with a technological transformation (转变) that reshaped how fans engaged with baseball. MLB made use of the digital wave, enabling fans worldwide to watch games live. Moreover, the rise of social media allowed for more personalised and immediate fan engagement. Teams and players communicated directly with fans through platforms, sharing behind-the-scenes content, hosting live Q & A sessions, and offering insights into players’ life off the field. These innovations further increased the role of baseball as a comforting, unifying force even during economic hardship.
Baseball’s influence as a cultural and social entity (实体) remained deep during the Great Recession. The 2008 World Series, for instance, offered a rare moment in economic recession. As the Philadelphia Phillies won the game and kept their title, the win symbolised championship and community spirit, encouraging far beyond the city and showing baseball’s ability to inspire unity across different backgrounds and challenges.
As we reflect on the interaction between baseball and economic crises, from the Great Recession to today’s economic landscape, it becomes clear that the sport stands as a remarkable proof to adaptation and cultural permanence.
28.Why did people go watch baseball games in the crisis?( )
A.They were little affected by the crisis. B.It provided inspiration to people.
C.They didn’t work so they had time. D.It was the only amusement at that time.
29.How did MLB attract audiences during the Great Recession?( )
A.By providing free snacks to fans. B.By reducing the number of games.
C.By increasing face-to-face interactions. D.By adopting family-friendly promotions.
30.What did the social media bring to baseball?( )
A.Increasing fans’ engagements. B.Organizing larger fan events.
C.Broadcasting games in real time. D.Establishing a special community.
31.What’s the best title for the text?( )
A.The Impacts of Sports on the Social Culture
B.The Adjustment of MLB in the Great Recession
C.The Role of Baseball During Economic Crises
D.The Importance of Unity Spirit During Hardship

(2025·景德镇高二下期中)A robot as large as a truck moves along the bottom of the deep sea. It eats metallic (含金属的) rock and soft mud. They travel up a long pipe to a ship, where workers and machinery separate out the rock and throw the mud back into the ocean. This is a mining operation. The rock contains a mixture of metals, including ones called rare earth metals. People use these materials to make batteries and electronics like computers and phones.
Deep-sea mining hasn’t happened yet. But it probably will occur within the next decade. No country owns any part of the deep sea, so a UN organisation called the International Seabed Authority (ISA国际海底管理局) decides who is allowed to mine there. It has allowed 29 organisations to explore the deep sea and make plans for mining, one of which plans to begin mining in the year 2027.
Scientists and environmentalists, though, warn that mining could destroy deep-sea ecosystem. In 1989, ecologist Hjalmar Thiel carried out a test. His team searched the seafloor of the Pacific Ocean, in a spot with lots of the metallic rocks that miners wanted. They didn’t actually collect any of the rocks. But they disturbed the mud, just as a mining operation would. The cloud of mud fell back down over the ocean floor, burying creatures living there. Up to now, the area they disturbed has not recovered. Signs of the search are still there. Deep sea creatures like sponges and corals have not moved back in. That means mining could have harmful, long-lasting consequences for deep ocean lives. Scientists want to understand the deep sea better before disturbing it.
Leaving the deep sea alone sounds great, but people need those metals. “Mines on land are soon going to run out,” geologist Steven Scolt of the University of Toronto told Smithsonian Magazine. “Every electronic device in the world has rare earth metals in it ... we need raw resources.” New energy technologies including solar and wind power and electric cars rely on these metals as well. We may need to mine them from the sea in order to switch to greener energy sources.
32.Why a robot is placed at the bottom of the deep sea?( )
A.To transport equipment to the ship.
B.To restore damaged oceanic ecosystems.
C.To extract valuable metallic resources from the seabed.
D.To test underwater robotic technology.
33.What do we learn about deep-sea mining?( )
A.It has caused terrible damage to oceanic ecosystems.
B.All organisations are permitted to explore the deep sea.
C.It is likely to begin within the next ten years.
D.The ISA directly organises deep-sea mining operations.
34.What did Hjalmar Thiel find in his test?( )
A.The deep-sea ecosystem recovered rapidly after the test.
B.The test caused long-term damage to the deep-sea ecosystem.
C.No ecological damage was detected during the test.
D.Deep see creatures adapted quickly to the effect of the test.
35.What is Steven Scolt’s attitude towards deep-sea mining?( )
A.Objective. B.Indifferent.
C.Disapproving. D.Supportive.

(2025·武汉六校高二下期中)Life is a precious gift, and how we live it depends on our choices. While some choose to waste their potential, others decide to pursue the best version of themselves.
36.( ) Some people are afraid of change, preferring to continue along the road that they are familiar with. They are not happy, but they are offered a sense of safety. They are leading a wasted life because they are not making use of their full potential.
When you have a dream, you owe it to yourself to strive to realise that dream. Why? No one has reached the end of their lives and said, “I am glad I didn’t try that.” Instead, more likely, they will say, “I wish I had tried harder at more challenges.” These regrets reveal a universal truth of human nature: 37.( )
The first step is changing your mindset. 38.( ) This means replacing self-doubt with determination. Once you have decided that you want to lead a different life, then be prepared to work hard and commit to the effort required.
Positive thinking reshapes every aspect of life. When faced with a problem, think to yourself, “I can do this.” Then find the best way to achieve the result you want. 39.( ) Keep trying until the job is done, and then congratulate yourself on outstanding achievement. Each success builds confidence.
Positive thinking is the oil that keeps the wheels of your ambition turning. 40.( ) Keep thinking positively about every aspect of life. Just imagine your future self: confident, fearless, and fulfilled. Hold on to those thoughts as you push ahead with your plans.
A.Don’t give up and be negative.
B.Without it, you will come to a standstill.
C.Instant actions with purpose lead to success.
D.Anyone who avoids changes can live comfortable lives.
E.Deciding to change requires both courage and action.
F.Staying in comfort zones avoids risks but limits growth.
G.Most people want to look back at a life filled with achievements.

(2025·景德镇高二下期中)It was spring in 2018. The whole school was bathed in beautiful sunshine when Kelly Mattison, an English teacher in J.K.F High School, suddenly saw Dylan Belscher anxiously walking up and down, his right hand in his pocket. It was nothing like the everyday Belscher she had come to know. Mrs Mattison wondered if something had happened.
Belscher was an average student, but not an average person. Generally, his smile would spread across the classroom. From a young age, he had started working part-time to help support his family. He had struggled to grow up, and although he was a tough boy, he was also positive and generous. He was always willing to help and was popular among his classmates. Recently, however, he had changed. He now worked longer hours, trying to earn more money. It seemed every dollar, even every cent, meant a lot to him.
That morning, when Belscher noticed a dollar on the floor, excitement and opportunity took hold of him. Looking around to make sure no one was looking, he quickly bent down, picked up the dollar and put it into his pocket. However, immediately after putting the dollar in his pocket, Belscher began to feel uneasy. As the day progressed, he began to feel worse and he couldn’t even concentrate during class. The one dollar bill felt like a fire burning in his pocket. He kept thinking about Mrs Mattison, who always taped (粘贴) lost items on the whiteboard and asked students to do the same.
He was so lost in thought that he didn’t even hear his deskmate call his name.
“Are you OK, Belscher?” His deskmate, Megan Rose, asked.
“Sure ...” Belscher paused, unable to complete the sentence. His heart began to race and his mind went blank. “Why ...why are ...you ...asking?”
Rose was curious. “Your face is so red!” she whispered.
The whisper exploded like a bomb, and Belscher felt as if the whole world was watching him and could see inside his pocket. Belscher was so overcome with embarrassment and guilt that he rushed out of the classroom. Even the bright spring sunshine wasn’t strong enough to wash away his shame.
注意:(1)续写词数应为150个左右;(2)请按如下格式作答。
Just then, Mrs Mattison approached, “What’s up, Belscher?”
The next day, moved by what she had heard, Mrs Mattison posted the story on her blog.

(Text 1)
M:Hey, Mary, what about going to a concert tonight?
W:Sorry, John, I’m afraid I can’t. My professor asked me to finish reading the book tonight.
(Text 2)
M:Susan, I have heard you’re going to Chicago the day after tomorrow. Will you go there by plane?
W:No, I think it is too expensive. So I’ll take a train instead of taking a flight.
M:That would be a very long trip.
(Text 3)
M:May I take your order now, madam?
W:No. I’m still waiting for a friend. So I’ll just keep reading the menu. I’ll let you know when we’re ready to order.
M:OK.
(Text 4)
W:Kate’s birthday is coming. How about buying her a CD or a concert ticket?
M:I don’t think she will like that. A book may be a nice gift, because she loves reading.
(Text 5)
M:Excuse me, could you please tell me where I can post the package?
W:Yes, go past the shopping mall and turn right at the first cross, and you will find the place next to a bank.
(Text 6)
M:Hey, Linda, are you free after work?
W:No. I will have a yoga class from 7:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.
M:Oh. When did you start learning yoga?
W:Last month. You know, I am a little fat and doing yoga can keep me in shape. I take classes on every Wednesday and Friday evening and Saturday morning at the fitness centre.
M:That sounds good. So what about going to the cinema this Sunday afternoon? It is said that the latest film is pretty wonderful.
W:That’s great!
(Text 7)
M:Karen, have you finished all your homework?
W:Not yet. I spent the whole morning doing math homework. It was just too difficult for me. Then I had no time to do physics homework and history homework. What about you?
M:I’ve only finished the history homework. So will you do your homework this afternoon?
W:Of course. It’s Monday tomorrow. We should hand in all the homework.
M:How about doing the rest of the homework together at your home?
W:Good idea.
(Text 8)
W:Don’t throw the plastic water bottle on the ground, Jack. Put it in the rubbish bin.
M:OK. I know.
W:The plastic will pollute the Earth. My teacher said that it’s everyone’s duty to protect the environment.
M:That’s true. But what can we do?
W:There are many things we can do, like using reusable products and taking public transportation. I usually keep plastic bottles, food cans and so on for future use.
M:I see, you really do a good job.
W:But that is not enough. We should call on more people to join us.
M:Yes. I will tell this to my classmates and other friends.
W:Great. If everyone takes action, our Earth will be more and more beautiful.
M:I totally agree.
(Text 9)
W:Hi, Henry. This is Jennifer calling.
M:Hi, Jennifer. How is everything going?
W:Very well. Hey, actually, I am calling because it’s my birthday this Friday. I was wondering if you would come to my birthday party.
M:Of course I’ll come. But what time?
W:It’s 7:30 p.m. Is that OK?
M:I’m afraid I cannot make it on time. My workplace is a bit far from your home. But I’m sure I can get there 30 minutes later.
W:That’s fine.
M:Good. Do you want me to bring something, like a cake or some drinks?
W:No, you don’t have to. But I do want you to play the piano for a while at the party.
M:That’s OK. Oh, I must hang up now. I should get back to work. I have to finish a report today.
W:OK. See you this Friday.
M:See you then.
(Text 10)
W:I didn’t learn English well at school. So after I started working, I went to take an English course in a language learning center. There were fifteen members like me in my class and we had an English lesson from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. every Tuesday and Friday. When the teacher entered the classroom, the lesson began. We usually started it by pronouncing different words. Then we were usually invited to the blackboard by the teacher to write down some words. After that we usually talked with each other in English in groups. During the lesson we spoke mostly English, but sometimes when the students didn’t understand the teacher or the task in the textbook, we spoke Chinese, our mother tongue. What I liked best of the English lessons was the happy and friendly environment of the class. The funny jokes were always welcomed. Thanks to my one-year-long study there, I made much progress in English. Now I can speak English well with those I work with.

Recently,I won first prize in our school’s English short story writing contest.My story,Beyond the Fog, follows a blind girl who guides a lost traveler home with extraordinary courage. Along the way, she comes to realise that true sight lies in the heart, not the eyes.
Never had I imagined that my writing could touch so many people! Not only has this experience boosted my confidence,but it has also deepened my love for storytelling. How I wish you could read it! Looking forward to your reply!
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
Just then, Mrs Mattison approached, “What’s up, Belscher?” Belscher hesitated for a moment before he admitted, “I misbehaved and kept a dollar I picked up. I am sorry.” He couldn’t hold back his tears. Mrs Mattison listened attentively and then she smiled warmly. “That’s OK, my boy. But why?” Belscher told her what had happened. His family was not rich and, to make things worse, his mother had fallen seriously ill. “I needed money, and even a dollar means a lot,” Belscher said. Mrs Mattison listened in silence. Patting Belscher on the back, she said gently, “Everything will be OK, dear!”
The next day, moved by what she had heard, Mrs Mattison posted the story on her blog. Rose was the first to spot it and the whole class was willing to help Belscher. More social media users began responding, offering their support in various ways. With more concern and help pouring in, Belscher’s mother started to gradually recover and the shining smile gradually returned to his face. As the beautiful spring sunshine kissed every lovely face around him, Belscher realised that the love of others was his constant companion and that his honesty had encouraged many acts of kindness.
