Lantern Lane in Rome The narrow lane leads you through a neighborhood where locals still sit outside and talk late into the evening.Old stone walls and small balconies are lit by warm lanterns,giving the street a soft glow. The walk:Begin at the back of a famous church,then follow the lane downhill.Along the way,you will notice plaques (on the walls that briefly explain the stories of former residents,including a poet and a watchmaker.

Signal Hill Steps in Cape Town Climbing these steps gives you a changing view of the city with every tum.The walk is short but steep,so it gains popularity among locals who want quick exercise after work.

B For most.of my life,I treated taste as fixed.There were things I liked and things I didn't, and that was that. Sticking to that belief had left me in a bit of a stanastill.I stopped making time for new hobbies or trying anything new.Salsa lessons?No,thanks.Interactive theatre?Not for me.But my automatic "no"to anything that "wasn't my thing"only kept me trapped in the same routine of work,sleep,eating,and that left me feeling a little empty. So,in an effort to break the boredom,I began to question whether my taste was fixed at all,or whether it might be something I could train.I had read that children need 8 to 15 tries to secept a new food.Why shouldn't the same principle apply to social activities for adults? I started small.When a friend invited me to a book elub,I resisted the urge to dismiss it, despite my longstanding dislike of reading due to dyslexia(阅读障碍症).But I went anyway.. I listened to the first book on audio book and,to my surprrse,enjoyed the discussion and the people.Now I spend momings reading.Then came music and performance:jazz clubs,line dancing,contemporary performance-all things I had previously disregarded. Trying things you thought you wouldn't enjoy,I found,became oddly addictive.I didn't love everything straight away,but I stopped saying no before I had even begun.Most recently, I tried out my local library's chess club.I was easily 30 years younger than everyone else,but that didn't matter.Honestly,there was nothing quite like being wiped off the board by someone who had been playing since before your parents met.I felt more of a connection with others there than at any organized twenty-something social event I've attended. 英语试题第3页（共8页） Putting "try something new"in my diary once a week broke up the work-commute-collapse cycle I had accidentally built my life around.Now I simply count to five,approach the friendliest-looking person with a "hello",and any initial awkwardness quickly fades.Next week?Who knows.Maybe magic lessons.Maybe life drawing.Maybe both. 24.How did the author's fixed idea affect her? A.It simplified her daily routine B.It fiattened her life into dullness. C.It left her more time for work. D.It spared her unwanted socializing. 25.Why did the author accept her friend's invitation to a book club? A.To revisit a former interest in reading B.To make a conscious shift in her life. C.To meet her friend's repeated requests. D.To occupy a blank in her personal calendar. 26.How did the author feel when losing the chess game? A.Totally frustrated B.Slightly puzzled. C.Rather embarrassed. D.Somewhat delighted. 27.What message does the author try to convey? A.Break out of your shell. B.Learn to say no. C.Look before you leap. D.Let go of the past. C Nature words like river,moss and blossom have appeared less frequently in books over the past years.This decline,according to a study by professor Miles Richardson from the University of Derby,mirrors a broader change he has traced through 220 years of records on urbanisation,the loss of wildlife in neighbourhoods,and parents no longer passing on engagement with nature to their children. The computer modelling in the study also predicts an "extinction of experience",with future generations continuing to lose an awareness of nature because it is not present in increasingly built-up neighbourhoods,while parents no longer pass on an“orientation(倾向)” towards the natural world.This is consistent with findings from other studies,which identify adult nature connectedness as the strongest predictor of whether a child will become close to nature. Richardson said that when he tested policy and urban environmental changes in the model he was surprised at the scale of the changes required to restore the connection to nature. Increasing biodiverse green spaces in a city by 30%might look like significant positive progress for wildlife and people but Richardson said his study suggests a city might need to be 10 times greener to turn around declines in nature connection. Efforts to simply encourage adults to engage with nature are often insufficient for lasting change.More effective are measures that build nature connection from an early age,such as forest schools for young children.Research indicates that government initiatives reshaping early education and urban design must be consistently applied over the next 25 years.Once established,this connection can become self-sustaining. Richardson said the scale of societal change required might not be as challenging as it appeared.A study on people in Sheffield found that they spent just 4 minutes and 36 seconds on average in natural spaces each day."Multiply that by two,and people are spending about 10 英语试题第4页（共8页） minutes outside every day-that may be enough,"he said."The key is to make these gains last across generations,"he added. 28.What change has Richardson traced in his study? A.Nature words have disappeared from books. B.Urbanisation has damaged wildlife habitats. C.People have less direct contact with nature. D.Parents spend more time outdoors with kids 29.What might cause future generations to have "extinction of experience"in the model? A.Schools offer few nature science lessons B.They can't adapt to changes in nature. C.High-rise buildings fill neighbourhoods. D.They are raised away from nature. 30.What is a most effective solution to the issue according to the text? A.Advancing long-term policies. B.Launching eco-friendly campaigns C.Focusing on raising adults'awareness. D.Enlarging green space in certain areas. 31.Richardson mentioned the study on people in Sheffield to show A.urban design has failed to meet people's basic needs B.the average time people spend in nature is far from enough C.city residents differ greatly in their engagement with nature D.a slight increase in daily nature time can make a difference D What's your best friend's phone number?Don't feel bad if you couldn't answer off the top of your head.You have no reason to commit phone numbers to memery:it's just there in your phone.Or perhaps.you once had a phone book to store them.In either case,an object does the remembering for you. “Prosthetic memory''(外部辅助记忆)is nothing new.Writing itself has been a means of storing information.-Yet the information revolution has generated more data than ever before. We are flooded with information.We're creating more of it.and keeping more of it.The storage capacity of the human brain has since been scanty:No wonder,then,that we're increasingly dependent on memory prostheses,from libraries to smartphones. Not everyone thinks this trend in external memory is good.Historically,memory prostheses were expensive.As technologies such as printing and photography become more affordable,sharing experiences with others is easier than ever.So every breakfast,every sunset,every encounter with a cat finds its way on to social media.And here comes the worry. When we devote ourselves to capturing and sharing the world in this way,something immensely valuable is lost;when recording so much of our lives,we're forgetting to actually live them,and so disconnect ourselves from experience. But is our social media-driven transformation wholly bad?If we're still creating and sharing memories like this,perhaps this is because we've not had sufficient time to learn how to do these things without thinking about what we're doing.It is easy to ignore that the mass social media era is less than a decade old.That's just a short blink in human history,yet it has totally changed how we live.I suspect we're not far off from being directly faced with experience yet with the ability to share experience in ways less bounded by geography and time.After all,technology can protect all the moments of a life that would otherwise be lost. 英语试题第5页（共8页） 32.What can be inferred from paragraph 1? A.Technology weakens our brains. B.We rely more on tools to memorize C.We are burdened with phone numbers. D.Technology distances us from our friends. 33.What does the underlined word "scanty"in paragraph 2 mean? A.insuffieient. B.stable. C.enhanced. D.outdated. 34.What negative.effect does online sharing bring about? A.An overflow ot posts. B.High cost of digital devices. C.Loss of authentic experience. D.Addiction to the virtual world. 35.Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A.Prosthetic Memory:A New Invention Changing Our Lives B.Technology Revolution:How It Replaces Human Memory C.External Memory:Blessing or curse for Human Memory? D.Social Media:Is It Making Us Lose Our Ability to Remember? 第二节共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 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。 Move House Without the Waste If you've got a house move coming up,then you'll know that it can be a stressful experience.With everything going on,reducing the environmental impact of moving may not be high on your list of priorities.36.Thankfully,there are a few clever ways to green your move and save some money. Firstly,it's always best to declutter (before you even start thinking about packing. Getting rid of stuff you don't need means you need fewer boxes and fewer packaging materials. 37,saving money and reducing pollution. Once you've decluttered,you can move on to the packing stage.Many removal companies supply their own brand-new boxes at an additional cost.To save resources (and a bit of cash), it's best to foster a good relationship with local shops.38.However,you can ask the staff when the delivery day is and then pop in that day to collect some cardboard boxes before they are sent to recycling. 39--using suitcases instead of boxes.Ask your friends and family if you can borrow some.Laundry bags are also an excellent option.You can generally fit a lot in them and they are much easier to carry than boxes. And finally,you can't move your goods with cardboard boxes alone.Delicate items need some form of protection during the move.40.If you find yourself short on recycled materials,you can also use clean towels and clothes to wrap breakables in.This is also a clever space-saving technique 装，They have a good supply of boxes B.Yet moving can be quite a wasteful process C.It may also mean you need a smaller removal truck Most of them won't store cardboard boxes as it's a fire risk E.Moreover,get creative with items you are clearing out You can keep otd newspapers or air-filled packaging beforehand G.Alternative'y you can get crafty wirn the items you have around you 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) Shopping seems not to be a pleasant experience for me now. I made a decision that made me feel41 _-looking through a major online shopping platform right before bed.Although my old washing machine was still functioning well enough,a wash-and-dry set 42 me a lot,as it was heavily 43,nearly 1,000 yuan off its already reduced price. Just six hours earlier,I had told my workmates that dryers were44 in the North, where the weather was usually dry.Yet here I was,45 product research.I watched unboxing videos,46 endless online comments,and learned about dryers.For the next hour,I questioned everything:energy 47,maintenance costs,and the supposed convenience of owning one.Paradoxically(矛盾地)，my_48_ only gave me mare reasons to buy one,besides the reduced price.After more than one hour of back-and-forth.I crossed the bridge,handed over 4,000 yuan and clicked"Confirm Order". But the moment I made the 49,a strange unease settled over me.Was it a 50 choice,or did I just fall into a trap that seemed too attractive?The stress from this purchase seemed to have 51 my sleep.I stayed awake that whole night. The constant 52 to make the "right"choice feels unbearable.Growing public 53 better education,and increasingly advanced product variations have .54 transformed shopping into a complex decision-making process. In the end,I wasn't sure if the time I spent 55 the decision and the sleep were worth it.But who knows?It might just come in handy some day. 41.A.respected B.challenged C.regretful D.proud 42.A.attracted B.frightened C.amused D.limited 43.A.improved B.discussed C.charged D.discounted 44.A.common B.essential C.inconvenient D.unnecessary 45.A.responsible for B.engaged in C.satisfied with D.dependent on 46.A.posted B.deleted C.viewed D.skipped 47.A.prediction B.shortage C.generation D.consumption 48.A.career B.research C.experience D.ambition 49.A.forecast B.contribution C.purchase D.promise 50.A.sound B.complex C.familiar D.free 51.A.promoted B.monitored C.balanced D.stolen 52.A.race B.pressure C.threat D.encouragement 53.A.relief B.anger C.support D.awareness 54.A.temporarily B.collectively C.originally D.rarely 55.A.weighing B.announcing C.explaining D.guiding 第二节共10小题：每小题1.5分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Emma,a history teacher from London,stood quietly in one of the theaters at Only Henan Drama Wonderland.Having visited dozens of cultural sites across China,she thought she knew what 56 (expect).But as the performance 57 (unfold),she was completely captivated by the raw emotion that transcended time and space,leaving her deeply moved.

Under Grandpa's gentle guidance,Timmy carefully polished a small wooden dog that they had made together for a long time,proud to be learning "real work"from Grandpa. Their joy also spread around the big dinner table.Timmy kept talking to Grandpa."Will the dog stand firmly Grandpa?,“Sure！I sanded(打靡)it SUPER smooth!”Grandpa responded gently. Across the table sat Timmy's father,Ben.He bent over his laptop,his eyebrows frowned. The joy of the grandfather and grandson seemed to escape him."Quatterly reports are due tomorrow,"he replied to his wife Sarah absent-mindedly,who had just reminded him of the delicious potatoes.He grabbed a bite,his eyes sliding back to the laptop,blind to the warmth around him.When he reached for the bowl,intending to take a quick sip,his arm knocked it over.Some hot soup spilled onto the table. "Be careful!"Sarah said softly.She grabbed a cloth and started to clean the spill quickly. Ben was wiping his laptop when some soup spilled on his trousers."Oh,annoying!The harder Itry to get this done quickly,the more things go wrong!"said he,getting angry.Astonished, little Timmy stopped talking at once.He stared at his father quietly,not knowing what to do. Grandpa Miller watched what happened calmly and then spoke in his low voice-the same familiar tone that used to comfort Ben when he was small."Easy there,son,"he said firmly, "The soup deserves your whole heart,so does the moment with all of us." 注意：(1)续写词数应为150个左右； (②)请在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Hearing the words,Ben froze. After dinner,Ben sat in front of the laptop again. 故语试丽笛？而（共？而）} 高二年级下学期3月月考英语试题答案 听力： 1-5 CABCA 6-10 BACAB 11-15 CBCBA 16-20 CABCB 阅读理解： 21-23CDA 24-27 BBDA 28-31 CDAD 32-35 BACC 七选五：36-40 BCDGF 完形填空： 41-45 CADDB 46-50 CDBCA 54-55 DBDBA 语法填空： 56.to expect 57.unfolded 58.shows 59.telling 60.What 61.civilization/civilisation 62.of 63.realistically 64.that 65.a 小作文： Dear Jerry, How is everything going?I'm excited to share with you that I received the first prize in our school's "Tell Chinese stories in English"V-log making competition. My video features the Chinese Knot and in the video I gave a detailed account of its historical development,its uses in our daily life and its crafting procedures.I picked it up because it is not only a handicraft but also a symbol of our culture.The Chinese knot shows excellent traditional skills and carries Chinese people's good wishes for good luck,happiness and family unity.As a time-honored craft,it embodies the wisdom of Chinese people by blending aesthetics with practicality,reflecting their creativity. This experience filled me with pride in the profound history and culture of China and strengthened my desire to introduce these incredible traditional crafts to more people. Yours, Li Hua 读后续写 Hearing the words,Ben froze.His fingers paused mid-air above the laptop keyboard, and the irritation on his face faded slowly.Memories flooded in--when he was Timmy's age, Grandpa had said the same thing while teaching him to carve a wooden cart,reminding him to focus on the moment.Glancing up,he saw Timmy clutching the small wooden dog tightly, eyes wide with hesitation,and Sarah folding the soiled cloth quietly."I'm sorry,"Ben said softly,closing the laptop."I let work take over and missed this."Timmy's face lit up;he held out the wooden dog,and it stood steadily on the table.Grandpa smiled,pouring Ben a new bowl of soup. After the dinner,Ben sat in front of the laptop again.But this time,his brows weren't furrowed.The lingering warmth of the dinner calmed his restlessness.He typed steadily,and the quarterly report,which had felt like a burden,flowed smoothly.When he finished,he walked to the workbench.Timmy and Grandpa were polishing the wooden dog together. "Mind if I join?"Ben asked.Timmy handed him a piece of sandpaper,and Grandpa patted his arm.By the lamp's glow,the three of them worked quietly,the gentle scraping of sandpaper the only sound in the peaceful room-this "real work"of togetherness was far more precious than any report.
