B We were sailing on a white boat through the clear waters of Turks and Caicos.The view was so beautiful that even my teenage daughter.Kavya,paused her usual rudeness to admire the scenery and breathe in the salty air. Instead of relaxing by the pools,we had spent the previous day training for our big scuba()trip.We took a course with written tests and did two exhausting pool practices.Now,the moment had arrived.Our instructor was about to place the helmets()on our heads.I took a deep breath.This was it-my chance to connect with Kavya through a new experience,something we could finally share. But suddenly,Kavya pulled my arm.Her face showed the same worried look she had during math homework. Icould sense her emotions tightening under her diving suit Just as the instructor approached,she whispered,Dad, can I quit?The waves sounded louder,the gear ()heavier.Surprisingly,I didn't say what I normally would: "Quitting is not an option!"Ieven stopped myself from thinking,But this was my plan."Trying to give her a gentle hug in the heavy gear only resulted in me splashing water all over her and making us both laugh awkwardly. When she was little.connecting with Kavya was effortless.I knew everything about her,and she always joined my adventures with pure excitement.But as she grew older,she discovered her own interests,drifting away from mine. What followed were sighs,eye-rolls,and half-hearted"I guess so"replies.I had hoped this scuba course would bring uscloser again.I didn't expect her quitting to hit me so hard or so suddenly. Even without the dive,we enjoyed our vacation.We swam,collected seashells,and played word games.In those slow,quiet moments,I realized joy isn't only in big adventures.It wasn't the moment of closeness I had imagined-but it tumed out to be exactly the one we needed. 24.Why did the author train hard for the diving trip?

The grammar school boy from Stratford-Upon-Avon has made headlines again after a groundbreaking study showed that Shakespeare does benefit children's literacy and emotional development,but only if they can act him out. The study found that a drama-based approach to teaching Shakespeare broadened children's vocabulary. improved the quality of their writing,and enhanced their emotional understanding."The way actors work makes a big difference to how children use language and how they think about themselves,"said Jacqui O'Hanlon,lead researcher of the study. The random trial involved hundreds of Year 5 pupils(aged nine and ten)at 45 state primary schools.The children were divided into a target group and a control group.Both groups read a passage from Romeo and uiet and were asked to write a letter as Romeo after being separated from Juliet.Before writing.the target group took part in a 30-minte drama-based activity,while the control group did not. lwas shown that pupils in the target group drew on a wider vocabulary,used more complicated or rarer words, and wrote at greater length.They aiso appeared moe comfortable writing in role.White pupils in the conro group imagined how they themselves would react to being separated from a loved one children in the target group put themselves in Romeo's shoes and expressed that character's emotion. O'Hanlon said she had been most surprised by the emotional understanding evident in the children's writing.and that they showed deeper empathy and expressed emotions more vividly."It is probably related to the drama-based process,where you are used to trying to think and feel as the character,"she added. But could the results be reproduced with any old dramatists?O'Hanlon said more research would be needed but suggested that Shakespeare's use of 20,000 words,compared with the everyday 2,000 words,gave a massive expansion of language into children's lives,which was combined with children using their whole bodies to bring words to life 28.What does the study encourage children to do? A.Perform Shakespeare's works. B.Write their own original plays. C.Learn Shakespeare's lines by heart. D.Watch professional acting on stage 合肥一中2025一2026学年第二学期高一期中考试英语第6页共12页 6 29.Which aspect of the study does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A.Its procedure. B.Its background C.Its purpose. D.Its significance 30.What impressed O'Hanlon most about the target group's writing? A.Passage fluency. B.Emotional depth. C.Word complexity. D.Plot imagination. 31.What can be learned from the text? A.Practice makes perfect. B.Learning by doing works best. C.Reading makes a full man. D.Words are the voice of the mind. D Growing evidence shows that dancing can boost brain health and help manage neurocognitive(神经i认知的) disorders.So what is it about dance that's different from other regular exercises? Helena Blumen,.a cognitive(认知的)scientist at Albert Einstein College of Medicine,says the complex(复杂的) mental multitasking that dance requires involves various parts of the brain at the same time.Basically,dancing requires more brain power than simpler repetitive(重复的)exercises. While scientists are still learning how the mechanisms of dancing work in the brain,a clearer picture is beginning to appear.Researchers at Otto von Guericke University in Magdeburg.Germany,did MRI scans of older adults who had participated in one of two programs over a six-month period.One group practiced dance and the other did a traditional exercise program with cycling and strength training.While both groups improved their level of physical fitness,the dancers grew more white and gray matter in the parts of the brain responsible for cognitive processes.Both white and gray matter typically decline as we get older,making communication in the brain slow. Imagine your brain is a city with loads of roads.The researchers assume the changes brought by dancing contribute to brain plasticity,which is like the city's ability to build new roads,repair old ones or even change the direction of traffic based on how often the routes are used and what the city needs. In addition to the physical and neurological (benefits,dance can also help people accept what their bodies can and can't do.Dawnia Baynes,44.developed multiple sclerosis(MS)after her body lose all feeling from the chest down.She recently joined an online dance program for people with MS.Not only has it improved her range of motion,it has also helped her overcome her fear of being judged for how she moves. "To see other people moving is like I'm moving,"she says."and knowing that I don't have to be professional and super technical in my dancing makes me comfortable with where I am right now." 合肥一中2025一2026学年第二学期高一期中考试英语第7页共12页 9 32.What does the mental multitasking involve according to the text? A.A variety of parts of the brain. B.Picturing abstract images. C.Simple repetitive exercises. D.High level of physical fitness. 33.What does the underlined word"plasticity"in paragraph 4 mean? A.Damage. B.Location. C.Flexibility. D.Process.34. What is the main idea of the Paragraph 5? A.Dancing is a professional exercise. B.Dancing can benefit people physically and neurologically C.Dancing has improved people's range of emotion.

During the first few days,I focused on simple tasks:reading stories aloud,helping with homework,and encouraging them when they got answers right.Gradually,I noticed small changes-a child who had never smiled before now laughed at jokes,another who was hesitant to speak out loud started asking questions confidently. However,not everything went smoothly.One boy,Tom,was especially headstrong and refused to follow instructions.He often interrupted lessons,played jokes on younger children,and sometimes even walked out angrily. At first,I felt frustrated and unsure how to reach him.Once after he stormed off,I came to him and said,"I know you're not being difficult-want to tell me what's bothering you?"He stared at his shoes.silent,but didn't walk away.That small moment felt like a crack (in his wall-he still didn't open up,but he didn't push me away either. One afternoon,the center organized a small talent show.Many children were excited but Tom refused to participate.Some volunteers wanted to pressure him,but I decided to give him space while offering encouragement Slowly,he agreed to recite a short poem.Watching him stand on the stage and finish without quitting,I felt a deep sense of relief and pride.The applause from the children made me realize patience and understanding can solve problems far better than force.I also saw how important it was to create more opportunities for children like Tom to explore their talents and feel supported.Tom himself seemed a little more confident and willing to try new things, which gave me an idea for the next step in my volunteering work 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。 I knew I had to do more for Tom and the other children.
