M:Let's buy some snacks now.We can eat them during break at school. (Text 2) W:Excuse me,is there any bus going to Frazier's Department Store?Or do you suggest taking a taxi?

W:Yes.We're beginning to land in a few minutes.Please be seated and fasten your seat belt. (Text 6) M:Excuse me.How much are those jeans? W:Which ones?Do you mean the black ones? M:No,the light blue ones.I think black is too dark. W:Oh,those are $59. M:Wow,I don't think I can afford them although I like the color.

W:Well,once I was told that biology books can only be borrowed from the old library.I think you had better try there. M:Thank you for your direction. (Text 8) M:Today,we're lucky to have with us this US gold medal-winning Olympic gymnast,Shawn Johnson.Shawn, who do you train with? W:A lot of people think I have a private coach.But I train with 13 other girls at the gym! M:How often do you practice? W:Most athletes train about 45 hours a week.But my parents want me to have a"normal life".I train about 25 hours a week.I usually work out four hours a day during the week,and five to six hours on Saturdays.I don't practice on Sundays.

W:Did you work overtime again? M:No.I watched that new reality TV show till midnight. W:Oh,I don't know why you still watch that rubbish.It's just a group of people stuck in a house,doing nothing!I have to admit it was attractive when it was a new program.But it's strange to think people are still watching the same shows nowadays.It seems to me that those shows just feed the big desire everyone seems to have for media attention.Everyone wants to be a star these days. M:But there are still some people signing up for those shows just to experience a different life or to earn some money. W:Anyway,I have no interest in those people whose idea of fame is that they are on a reality TV show.I admire people with real talent who've actually earned their fame because they are different from the rest of us. M:Hmm,I don't think so on that way.Maybe we need to rethink what fame is! (Text 10) M:Hello,everyone.I'd like to tell you about a surprise party which was rather exciting.Last week,Anna sent out invitations to all of Charlie's friends.It said on the invitation in huge letters that it was going to be a surprise party and that we should make sure we didn't say anything to Charlie that might give it away. When Charlie walked in,he was quite surprised because it was a fancy party and we'd all come along in sixties clothes from our parents.We looked really funny that nobody recognized us so it was quite a success. Anna and Charlie's father booked a local disco for the night.A lot of great music was played as well.The best idea Anna had was to put cameras on all the tables so that we could take our own photos.She had them printed and we could all get copies of the ones we liked.I've had one of mine developed and put it up.I only met Charlie a couple of weeks ago through a basketball match,so there were quite a lot of people at the party I hadn't met before,but I made a lot of friends that night,including a really nice girl called Linda. 参考答案 1~5 CBACA 6~10 BACAC 11~15 BCCBB 16~20 ABABA 【答案与解析】

exhibition与hold之间是逻辑上的被动关 系，所以用过去分词held作后置定语。 57.the考查冠词。这里是特指中国古代思想、艺术和宗教的美，所以用定冠词the表示特指 58.restoration考查词形转换。digital是形容词，后面需要接名词，restore的名词形式是restoration,表示“修 复；恢复”，在这里指“数字修复” 59.which考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，该空引导的是一个非限制性定语从句，先行词是The Yongle Palace,指物，在从句中作主语，所以用关系代词which引导。 60.was built考查动词的时态和语态。根据空后的时间状语during the Yuan Dynasty(1271一1368)可知，此处 用所给动词的一般过去时，又因为The Yongle Palace与build之间是被动关系，所以用一般过去时的被动 语态。 6l.significant考查词形转换。reference value是名词短语，需要用形容词来修饰，significance的形容词形式 是significant,表示“重要的；有意义的” 62.and考查连词。literary和artistic是并列修饰works的形容词，需用并列连词and连接。 63.promoting考查非谓语动词。分析句子成分可知，此处填非谓语动词，the exhibition与promote之间是逻 辑上的主动关系，所以用现在分词promoting作伴随状语。 64.to experience考查非谓语动词。allow sb.to do sth.是固定搭配，意为“允许某人做某事”，所以用to experience。 65.enthusiasts考查名词复数。art enthusiast表示“艺术爱好者”，这里指全世界的艺术爱好者，应用所给名词 的复数enthusiasts。 第一 One possible version: Nowadays,many teenagers are burdened with academic stress.Frequent exams and parents'high expectations often make us feel overwhelmed.Some even suffer from insomnia or lose interest in learning. Schools can play a key role in relieving this pressure.First,offering psychology classes can help us understand stress and learn coping skills,such as deep breathing or time management.Second,organizing activities like sports meets or art festivals allows us to relax and develop hobbies beyond study. Every student deserves a healthy mind.Let's work together to create a campus where stress is acknowledged and understood and support is always available. 第二节 One possible version: With the clock ticking and the wind intensifying,Jordan worked urgently.Finally,after several painstaking attempts,he managed to get the engine running again.Tom let out a sigh of relief.However,the wind was still raging with no sign of slowing down any time soon.Jordan and Chris knew they couldn't just leave Tom to make his way back alone in such dangerous conditions.They accompanied him back to the shore, ensuring his safety every step of the way. Once at the shore,Tom thanked them sincerely."I don't know what I would have done without you two. You saved my life,"he said,his voice thick with emotion.Jordan clapped him on the back gently and said, "We're just glad we were there in time."As they watched Tom secure his boat,they knew that helping Tom through the crisis was what made their day truly meaningful.They exchanged a proud glance,feeling a deep sense of satisfaction wash over them. 英语（二）参考答案第4页（共4页）绝密★启用前 2026届高考冲刺调研信息卷（二） 英 语 过 考生注意： 1.本试卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在本试卷和答题卡相应位置上。 3.请按照题号顺序在各题的答题区域内作答，超出答题区域书写的答案无效；在草稿纸、 试题卷上答题无效。 4.考试结束后，将本试题卷和答题卡一并上交。 喝 第一部分听力（共两节，满分30分）】 最 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5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 蜘 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.What did the boy buy yesterday? 的 A.Some snacks.

Last Saturday,a groundbreaking half marathon took place in Beijing,China,where about 12,000 human runners competed alongside 21 humanoid robots.This was the first race of its kind,pushing the boundaries of technology.Despite numerous challenges,six robots successfully completed the race,covering the full 13.1 miles. The event was held in E-Town,a technology center in Beijing.While robot races have been held before,this was the longest one yet.The distance was designed to test the robots' capabilities under real-world conditions,providing valuable data to their developers.The robots varied in size and shape,from the towering "Tiangong Ultra",standing at 180 centimeters,to the small-sized "Little Giant",just under 75 centimeters tall.Each robot had to run on two feet,mimicking human runners. To ensure a fair start,each robot began at a slightly different time,as some struggled to maintain balance at the outset.Support teams accompanied each robot,equipped with control devices,spare parts,and even replacement robots in case of breakdowns. The race began on a flat course,making the early stages relatively easy.However,the difficulty increased as the route featured 14 turns,small hills,and even railroad tracks that the robots had to cross.Low battery power was a common issue,causing some robots to fall, including Tiangong.Overheating was another significant problem,especially as the day warmed up.At one point,Little Giant's head began to smoke,and workers had to constantly cool it down to keep it operating. Despite these problems,Tiangong Ultra was the first robot to cross the finish line, completing the race in 2 hours,40 minutes,and 42 seconds.Though the robots were far (二)·英语第3页（共8页） behind most human runners,their goal was to finish the race-and six of them achieved this. Second and third places went to two versions of the N2 robot. Even for the robots that didn't finish,the race was a success.Their efforts provided crucial data for future improvements.This event marked a significant step forward in the development of humanoid robots,showcasing their potential and the challenges that lie ahead. 24.What does the underlined word "mimicking"in paragraph 2 probably mean? A.Copying. B.Attacking. C.Staying away from. D.Keeping track of. 25.Why did the robots start the race at slightly different times? A.To avoid overheating during the race. B.To ensure fairness due to balance issues. C.To test their ability to cross railroad tracks. D.To check their reaction speed in sudden stops. 26.What does the author want to illustrate by mentioning Little Giant in paragraph 4? A.The need for longer battery life. B.The impact of uneven roads on robots. C.The severe heat challenge during the race. D.The importance of lightweight robot design. 國 27.What is paragraph 5 mainly about? A.The advantages of the N2 robot versions. B.The detailed rules in robot competitions. 知 C.A comparison between robots and humans. D.The achievements of robots during the race. 郎 C Have you ever walked into a cafe and enjoyed the upbeat music playing overhead?While customers might move to the soundtrack,employees stuck with listening to the same playlist 长 all day often feel the opposite.A recent study in the Journal of Applied Psychology reveals that mismatched background music-called "workplace music misfit"-can weaken employees 区 moods,reduce productivity,and even lead to rule-breaking. Researchers from Ohio State University,University of Illinois at Chicago and Hong Kong Polytechnic University found stores often prioritize music playlists that energize shoppers or 敬 encourage spending,ignoring what service workers-like cashiers or gym staff-need.For example,a cashier handling stressful crowds might benefit from calming music but hears 闻 fast-paced pop instead.Similarly,a stockroom()worker needing motivation might get stuck with slow,relaxing tunes meant to keep customers browsing. The team conducted two studies:one online experiment with 166 workers and a 相 real-world analysis tracking 68 service employees for three weeks.Results showed that when music didn't match workers'needs,their positive emotions dropped by 15-20%,and mental tiredness increased.This led to less effort,more mistakes,and even minor rule-breaking. Not everyone reacted equally,though.Some people naturally block out background noise better than others,a quality called "stimulus screening ability".Workers who struggled to screen out unwanted sounds suffered more when forced to listen to music that didn't match their needs. With over 13.5 million Americans working in music-filled environments,businesses risk harming enthusiasm and productivity.Researchers suggest simple fixes:letting employees choose music during slow hours,offering earplugs that block music but not conversations, creating quiet break areas,or providing bone-conduction headphones.These devices allow workers to hear both their preferred music and customers. Fixing the "music misfit"can boost moods,productivity,and customer satisfaction. However,ignoring employees'musical needs costs businesses more than they realize.Next time you hear a pleasing store playlist,remember:the workers might be counting the minutes until it stops. (二)·英语第4页（共8页） 28.What can be learned from paragraph 2? A.Shoppers prefer upbeat music in stores. :B.Service staff can't decide on work music. C.Employees tend to like slow-paced tunes. D.Stores play music for employees'enjoyment. 29.What can be concluded about service workers from the study? A.They generally find background music appealing. B.Most of them have poor "stimulus screening ability" C.Mismatched music can impact their job performances. D.They prioritize calming music to reduce customer stress. 30.Which of the following is a suggested solution to "music misfit"? A.Banning all background music in stores. B.Letting customers choose the workplace music. C.Creating quiet areas for employees during breaks. D.Providing employees with devices that play classical music. 31.What message is the author trying to deliver in the last paragraph? A.Employees enjoy listening to pleasing playlists. B.Stores should choose music only for boosting sales. C.Future studies will focus on customers'music needs. 如 D.Fixing music misfit benefits workers and businesses. D 的 A risky travel trend spreading online claims passengers can arrive at airports just 15 minutes before departure and still catch their flight.Named "airport theory",this idea has 长 caused a debate as travelers test its limits with mixed results.While some succeed,experts warn it's a risk that could ruin trips and affect airport operations. Social media users have shared their experiments.One traveler reportedly succeeded at ☒ Atlanta's busy Hartsfield-Jackson Airport using TSA PreCheck,a fast-track screening process for qualified US travelers,with no checked bags,reaching his gate in under 15 minutes.Others, 粥 however,faced disasters.A creator attempting the trend missed her flight to Chicago after security delays,calling the idea“risky”. 杯 Travel expert Nicole Campoy Jackson warns this trend is dangerously unreliable."It only takes one missed flight to realize how pointless this risk is,"she says.Unpredictable issues like long security lines,technical malfunctions or random bag checks can upset even the 舡 best-laid plans.For example,TSA screenings sometimes require additional steps,such as body searches or luggage()inspections,which eat into tight schedules.Airlines like American and Delta recommend arriving two hours early for domestic flights and three for international trips,emphasizing that boarding gates close 15 minutes before departure. Jackson admits arriving hours early isn't always necessary but stresses balance."There's a happy medium between sitting at the gate and rushing through airports like in a movie scene,she says.For frequent travelers with mobile boarding passes,no luggage and TSA PreCheck,a one-hour gap might work-but first-time flyers or families with kids should allow extra time.Weather delays,traffic or crowded drop-off zones also add challenges. While airport inconveniences-overpriced snacks,crowded seating and unreliable Wi-Fi-make people eager to reduce waiting time,Jackson notes the trend shows a lack of consideration for airport staff."Employees work hard to keep flights on schedule.Intentionally cutting the arrival time close ignores their efforts and the human side of travel,"she explains.Missing a flight creates chaos for workers tasked with rebooking passengers or handling lost luggage.
