One special moment came in 2015.While cleaning a bamboo piece from the Warring States Period,he found the words for"hold your hand and grow old with you",a line from The Book of Songs."I felt the light and warmth of our history and culture,"Fang recalled. After finishing his studies in chemistry in 1988,Fang began working at the museum,using science for his love of history.He focuses on jiandu-things people wrote on before paper was used.In 2002,he faced a huge task-over 92,000 pieces from the Qin Dynasty were found in Hunan.He stayed in Changsha for nine years,working 12 hours a day to sort out and protect them. Preserving jiandu is extremely difficult.They are made of natural materials and break down easily.Once unearthed,they quickly turn black in the air,making the writing unreadable.Fang's repair work involves over 20 steps,with decoloring and dewatering being the most important. Decoloring brings back the original color and keeps the words clear,while dewatering helps them leave the wet condition and stay steady for keeping.After years of trying,he found a good two-step way and won a national technology prize in 2019. Each case is different.In 2020,his team worked on Han Dynasty bamboo pieces from a robbed tomb in Dingzhou.The pieces broke easily.They tried over 70 times to keep them together. Even though the writing was almost impossible to see,a special camera using infrared(红外线的) light showed the words clearly. So far,Fang and his team have fixed over 100,000 pieces."For things like these,once they are dug up,there's only a short time to save them.I cannot stop-the faster I work,the more of our history I can save,"said Fang. 24.How did Fang feel when he saw the line from The Book of Songs? A.Shocked. B.Bored. C.Moved. D.Confused. 25.What do we know about Fang's work in Changsha after 2002? A.He got a national award right after. B.He solved all preservation issues there. C.He faced a massive and demanding workload. D.He enjoyed studying Qin Dynasty history there. 26.What does the underlined word"decoloring"in paragraph 4 mean? A.Preventing jiandu from turning black. B.Recovering the true color. C.Cleaning the surface to remove the dirt. D.Changing the color of jiandu 27.What lesson can we learn from Fang's story? A.More haste,less speed. B.Time and tide wait for no man. C.Actions speak louder than words D.Where there's a will,there's a way. 高一下英语期中试卷第4页共10页 c y It might not have been the first to have a touchscreen,but it was Tesla's Model S,with its small cabin()built around a huge full-color display,that set the trend.For years almost every new car sold has a high-tech,futuristic screen,which controls everything from the air-conditioning to the music. But are touchscreens safe?The argument against them is simple.If using a smartphone while driving is dangerous,the same logic applies to a car's screen.Physical buttons allow for eyes-off operation,but a touchscreen offers no physical feedback.And because a screen must do dozens of 5 jobs,finding a particular setting often means tapping through several sub-menus.The result,say critics,is that drivers'attention is divided. Research backs that up.A 2022 test by Vi Bilagare,a Swedish magazine,timed drivers performing tasks like changing radio stations while driving at 110 km/h.It set 11 touchscreen cars against an older model with buttons.In the old car,drivers were able to do all tasks within about 10 seconds,during which time the car travelled around 300 metres.In the worst-performing modemn car,the same tasks took 45 seconds,during which the car travelled 1.4 km.Even in the best-performing models,testers still took several seconds longer than in the old car.Another 2020 analysis by Britain's Transport Research Laboratory found touchscreens damaged reaction time more than driving over the legal alcohol limit. Safety organizations begin to notice.From January,new rules from Euro NCAP,an organization that provides safety ratings for cars in Europe,will mean no car can get a full five-star score unless certain crucial functions are controlled by real switches.Therefore,carmakers,such as Volkswagen and Porsche,have begun restoring at least some buttons to their new models.But innovation never stops.Even as touchscreens are falling out of favour,many carmakers are turning their attention to voice control-though that is a subject for another story 28.Why does the author mention Tesla's Model S? A.To introduce a topic. B.To show its market success. C.To compare it with older cars. D.To emphasize its technical lead. 29.Why do touchscreens divide drivers'attention according to paragraph 2? A.Their response is slow. B.Their operation is laborious. C.Their feedback is rather confusing. D.Their settings are poorly organized. 30.What is the purpose of testing cars with buttons in the 2022 study? A.To show their simple functions. B.To praise their safety technology. C.To offer a performance reference. D.To recommend the old-style models. 31.Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text? A.Car Control:Touch or Voice B.Touchscreens:A Risky Trend C.Car Buttons Make a Comeback D.New Rules Ensure Driving Safety D In a world that feels increasingly complex and uncontrollable,a revolutionary psychological 高一下英语期中试卷第5页共10页 approachhas attracted millions.Known as the "Let Them"thery,this conept,popularized by Mel Robbins in 2024,has since gone viral,gaining over 15 million views.The theory encourages a powerful form of acceptance,urging us to focus on our reactions and inner states rather than trying to control others or the outside,or what we call external world. Adopting the "Let Them"method can bring several psychological benefits.Primarily,it lowers stress and anxiety by reducing the effort spent on trying to manage the uncontrollable.In relationships,this approach can lessen conflict and build mutual respect,as it supports personal autonomy()and self-control.The core of the theory is self-improvement and personal choice, which leads to healthier and more balanced connections with others. So,what happens in your mind when you practice"Let Them"?First,you quickly reduce the internal struggle that comes from fighting against reality.Instead of thinking,"This shouldn't be happening,,”you start asking,,“This is happening,so what should I do now?”or“What is the best way for me to respond to this situation?"This change in thinking calms the body's stress response. In professional psychology,this is known as"radical acceptance,"a skill for tolerating suffering. Therapies ()based on acceptance can greatly decrease psychological stress and worry. Furthermore,allowing others to have their autonomy can improve how relationships work.It reduces defensiveness and increases mutual respect.When you consciously give up trying to control others,you create space for them to change voluntarily.Most people value feeling trusted and respected in their relationships.This shift in perspective reduces feelings of being pressured, trapped,and resentful ()When individuals feel supported and empowered to make their own suitable decisions,they often feel closer and more open to others. 32.What does the"Let Them"theory encourage us to do? A.Prioritize how to respond. B.Overlook the external world. C.Handle the increasing complexity. D.Stay focused despite difficulties. 33.How does the application of"Let Them"benefit relationships? A.To build mutual respect. B.To limit personal autonomy. C.To push others to change. D.To erase all negative feelings. 34.What is the impact of radical acceptance? A.Giving in to suffering. B.Strengthening stress response. C.Resisting rough realities. D.Embracing what has happened. 35.What is the main purpose of the passage? A.To clarify a popular psychological theory. B.To persuade people to stop controlling others. C.To explain how a theory became popular online. D.To compare different methods of stress management. 第二节（共5个小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 高一下英语期中试卷第6页共10页 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，并在答题纸上将该项涂 黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Physicist and Nobel Prize winner Richard Feynman developed a clever learning method known as the Feynman Technique.It involves explaining what you're learning to others.By teaching what you've learned from memory,you engage in active recall.36 It also ensures that you understand the topic,because you can only explain an idea if you truly understand it.The technique consists of four repeatable steps. To begin,choose a concept or topic you wish to fully understand.37The more interested you are,the faster you'll grasp it.Moreover,a personally interesting topic will keep you motivated and engaged. 38Write notes and explain it in a way that makes sense to a five-year-old.If you'd rather avoid actually teaching someone,you can just teach it to an imaginary audience.But it works much better if you use a real person.They'll be able to let you know when something isn't clear. While teaching you may discover gaps in your understanding.39Review your notes, reread books,or seek external help to ensure you have a complete understanding of the context before moving forward. Now that you fully grasp the concept,test your understanding by trying to teach it to another person.This will help you identify any remaining areas of uncertainty you need to revisit. The Feynman Technique is a great way for kids and grown-ups to learn.40You need to actively think about the problem instead of passively reading or listening to someone else. However,with great efforts in mastering this method,you'll see your learning results improve quicker than ever before. A.It is mentally demanding. B.This helps the information stick in your mind better. C.Teach it to a five-year-old,who would give you direct feedback. D.Your curiosity about it will determine the pace of your learning. E.Once you have chosen a topic,you can teach it to someone else. F.Active engagement plays a key role in promoting deeper learning. G.When this happens,refer back to the original material for the missing pieces. 第三部分语言运用（共三节，满分45分） 第一节（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、D四个选项中，选出可以填人空白处的最 佳选项。 Torsongan Bullik,a 28-year-old athlete,has gone from being an amateur (cyclist to a professional cross-country skier.In Wenquan county he spent his childhood,when his athletic 41 began to show.In 2009,as a freshman in junior high,he was good at long-distance 高一下英语期中试卷第7页共10页 running and by 2016,he had 42third in the Xinjiang Wusu International Marathon.His passion for cycling 43during the Tour of Sayram Lake,which raised his 44 in the sport.

For weeks,David and his classmates threw themselves into learning the skill of making su filindeu with Ms.Sandra's help,but it didn't come easily.The dough kept breaking or sticking together.Sometimes,they couldn't stretch more than 16 strands.Still,they refused to quit,helping and encouraging each other as they improved little by little. One afternoon,Ms.Sandra entered the classroom with heavy steps.She sighed,"The school board thinks our su filindeu class isn't practical.They've decided to cancel it next term unless we can prove its value."She added,"It's true that machines can mass-produce pasta in minutes,but if we only value what's fast and easy,we lose centuries of knowledge." A wave of disappointment swept through the classroom.After a moment of silence,David stood up."What if we let more people know about it?How about an exhibition?"he suggested. The class lit up with excitement.Inspired by their reaction,David immediately volunteered to organize the exhibition.Ms.Sandra watched,proud and hopeful.Perhaps,she thought,they really could work some magic. 注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 David and his classmates quickly got to work. The day after the exhibition,Ms.Sandra entered the classroom with a smile. 高一下英语期中试卷第10页共10页
