B About once a week,a veterinarian (Kwane Stewart heads down to San Diego's East Village to make his rounds,serving the dogs,cats and birds who are the treasured pets of downtown's homeless community. Stewart's parents were huge animal lovers.By age 6,he knew he wanted to be a vet.After graduation from a Colorado veterinary science program,he spent the next decade as a veterinarian.In 2008,he worked as head veterinarian at a country-run animal shelter in an area struck by the Great Recession.He saw pets abandoned and the work was extremely depressing.Four years into the shelter job,Stewart said he was burned out with guilt and ready to quit. 高一英语试卷第3页共8页 Then one morning on his way to work,he saw a homeless man and a dog.He treated the dog's skin condition and the animal was transformed.The owner was beyond grateful and said,"Thanks for not ignoring me and for trcating my dog.""That was the moment for me.I got back to saving animals and doing it on my own terms." Stewart said. A few wceks later he set up a pop-up veterinary clinic at a soup kitchen,and when clients there suggested he take his services further,his new job as"Street Vet"began.In addition to treating common diseases,Stewart often provides vaccinations and general wellness checks.He also promotes "fear-free"pet care.Many of the people Stewart serves are not just grateful for the help but also form a deep bond with him,seeing him as someone who not only treats their pets but also acknowledges their humanity. "I can dream a little bit that people from all over the world will want to emulate_what I do."Stewart said. Right now,he is building a network of trusted voluntcers,technicians with hospitals and clinics."These are all people who just reached out and said,I'm inspired by what you do.How do I do it?'"he said. 24.What do we know about Steward's current job? A.He runs an animal shelter. B.He adopts abandoned pets. C.He works for a science program. D.He attends to homeless pcople's pets. 25.Why is Stewart's shelter job mentioned? A.To explain his change of career focus. B.To illustrate his professional capability. C.To explore the future of the industry. D.To reflect the challenges of the profession. 26.What do many people think of Steward? A.He's odd. B.He's frank. C.He's generous. D.He's merciful. 27.What does the underlined word"emulate"in the last paragraph mean? A.Follow the example of. B.Show respect for. C.Put the blame on. D.Pay attention to. Hearing a song might bring to mind the last time we watched a band perform it.We may remember hearing the song on a road trip with high school friends,and be brought back to the sights,smells,and feelings of that experience.All of these experiences have been referred to as"music-evoked (thoughts".Recent research has tried to understand why certain thoughts happen in response to certain music. In one study,my workmates and I compared thoughts evoked by instrumental pieces of unfamiliar classical, electronic,and pop/rock music.Overall,listeners reported thoughts 76%of the time.However,the presence of thoughts varied across music types.Classical and electronic music evoked more thoughts than pop/rock music.This doesn't necessarily mean pop/rock music types are uninteresting.Rather,types like classical and electronic music might provide greater visual mental imagery(视觉心理表象)，while pop/rock music might invite listeners to take part in different ways,like dancing or singing along. We also found connections related to the contexts with which we mix music.Classical music was often composed specifically with the aim of evoking an imagined story,leading listeners to great capability to imagine fictional (stories.Electronic had a habit of evoking thoughts about clubbing and video games while 高一英语试卷第4页共8页 pop/rock about live performances and driving. These contextual tie may vary across different cultures.A recent study showed that fictional stories reported while enjoying classical music were highly similar in two groups of young adults in the US,but the stories caused by listeners in Germany in response to thesc same pieces were evidently different.This suggests that even when asked to produce totally fictional stories,listcners are influenced by their previous connection with music.This speaks to general thcories that our memories play an important role in shaping imagination. Understanding how different music evokes different thoughts is important for various practical uses.For example,a psychologist (might aim to excite spccific types of thoughts through music when working with a customer,or an artist might practisc a more creative thinking style by listening to a particular piece of music. 28.What can we learn about"music-evoked thoughts"from paragraph 2? A.They vary with different types of music. B.They are few happenings in music listening. C.They encourage pcople to dance to the music. D.They strike people during enjoyable music play. 29.What was found uniquc about classical music? A.It was associated with clubbing. B.It provided listeners with real contexts. C.It was intended to promote imagination. D.It was played slower than other music types. 30.What greatly influenced listeners'imagination? A.The development level of their country. B.The previous music-related experiences C.The education they received while young. D.The types of story they were asked to create. 31.Which of the following is the best title for the text? A.Where Does Our Memory Come from? B.Do Music Imaginings Vary with Cultures? C.Does Listening to Music Help Story Creation? D.How Does Different Music Shape Our Imagination? Studies have shown the mere exposure effect,also referred to as the familiarity principle,inspires our decisions.It is a helpful psychological tool that helps us maintain our energy and focus our attention on other things. Getting used to new things takes effort and it can be tiring.So unless we have a terrible experience,we are likely to buy from companies we've got used to.That is why companies spend so much money on advertising and marketing and why insurance (companies openly charge existing customers more than new ones. It's not the case that we only desire things we already know.Some studies suggest when invited to share our preferences,we sometimes see less familiar options as more desirable.But when acting on that preference,we fall back to what we know.This might explain why sometimes the things we want and the things we do don't quite match up.We might even return to companies that treated us poorly in the past or stay in bad relationships. It's easy to paint the familiarity principle as an enemy or something to battle as if it is something that holds us back from living our dreams.But this attitude might be stressful because it tends to encourage us toward big-picture thinking,where we imagine that change requires a quite significant shift that we don't feel ready for.Some articles suggest the solution to familiarity frustration (is complete exposure to novelty.While this can appear effective in the short term,we may only end up replacing one problem with another.It also risks excessive stress and burnout. 高一英语试卷第5页共8页 So what if we can work with the familiarity principle instcad?Familiarity is something we can learu to pay with and enjoy.It is a setting for creativity and a pathway to expansion ()We can broaden the zone of familiarity bit by bit.If we think of familiarity as something that can expand,we can consider changing the conditions in and around our lives to make more space for our preferences to take root and grow gently.From here, we will start to make decisions,drawing from an ever-deepening pool of valuable options. 32.What allows insurance companies to charge old customers more? A.The advertising cost. B.The improved service. C.The familiarity principle. D.The principle of the market. 33.We can leamn from paragraph 2 that A.our prefcrences affect our decisions B.familiarity tends to generate disrespect C.the familiarity principle is a double-edged sword D.there can be a mismatch between desires and actions 34.What is the author's attitude towards the solution in some articles? A.Disapproving. B.Tolerant. C.Objective. D.Supportive. 35.Which of the following is the best title for the text? A.Step Out of Your Familiarity Zone B.Spare a Thought for Your Preference C.Gently Expand Your Familiarity Zone D.Give Priority to the Mere Exposure Effect 第二节（共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，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。 Make Time to Write Since a new year has started,time lies before us like a blank page,waiting to be filled with writing.We are all busy people,and we sometimes feel that life is working against our writing ambitions and pushing them aside.Yet the most productive writers are the busiest.36 Overcoming self-doubt and fear is the key to unlocking your potential.37 Most of the time,the real reason why we avoid writing is that we're afraid of failing.It's simpler to complain about being too busy than to face our fears.To solve this problem,we can try to understand what we're scarred of,deal with it,and then focus on moving forward. A simple way to find more time to write is to give yo mself a clear goal.It needs to be SMART:specific, measurable,achievable,realistic and time-bound.38If you successfully meet your target,you could give yourself a small reward:buy a new notebook or pen,go for a long walk,or take a day off from writing and just do something completely different. 39 As Henry Ford once said,"If you do what you've always done,you'll get what you've always got"!This could mean writing with a notebook and pen rather than the computer you also use for work.Try varying your approach and see if it helps. Above all,you should prioritize (writing over other things.Most successful writers have caring responsibilities,jobs outside the home,and the necessary everyday tasks they all need to complete.Yet they still manage to write.40 So,if you want to make 2025 the year when you get your writing project done,look at how you use your time with a fresh eye. A.Do something different if your current approach isn't working. B.For example,writing 1,500 words in a week might be realistic. C.What they have in common is that they treat writing as important. D.We all have a voice in our head that keeps telling us we can't succeed. E.In addition,writing in a different environment might also be beneficial. F.Sometimes,changing the writing tool can bring unexpected inspiration. G.But how can we break through these difficulties and really start writing? 高一英语试卷第6页共8页 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） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 When I entered Berkeley,I hoped to eamn a scholarship.Having been a Straight-A student,I believed I could 41 tough subjects and really learn something.One such coursc was World Litcrature given by Professor Jayne.

To her,music was like an invisible string that could tie strangers together,creating a warm community.She remembered the first time she had felt this connection:at six years old,waiting for the bus with her mom on a hot, boring day.Then a cheerful tune came from a store loudspeaker-a song about a girl and her dreams: "Dreams of sunshine and fields of gold, Where the heart is never old, Singing songs that never end, In a world that's my best friend..." Without thinking,Mary sang along-her voice soft and gentle at first,like a whisper carried on the gentle wind,which gradually growing stronger and more confident.The melody was simple yet engaging.Time passed without her noticing.When the bus arrived,passengers smiled;an old man beat his walking stick to the beat.As the doors closed,everyone was humming.Mom whispered to her,"You just lifted all our spirits."Nothing seemed better than music for calming a restless heart,and Mary remembered that. After boarding the plane,the passengers were told of another weather delay-at least another 45minutes.The cabin (grew tense with restless movements and complaints. Then a sudden cry cut through the air.Across the aisle ()to Mary's left,a tiny girl,barely three years old, began to cry.Her mother tried everything-rocking her,offering snacks,water,toys-but nothing worked.The child's face was wet with tears,her cries loud and broken.Passengers shifted uncomfortably in their seats as the crying filled the cabin. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右： 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Mary hesitated for a moment,and then turned to her mom Slowly,the baby's cries softened. 高一英语试卷第8页共8页2025-2026学年第二学期高一年级期中质量检测 1-5 BABAC 6-10 ABCCB 11-15 CAABB 16-20 ACCBC 21-23CCB 24-27 DADA 28-31 ACBD 32-35 CDAC 36-40 GDBAC 41-45 AACBB 46-50 BCDCA 51-55 AADCD 56.a 57.significance 58.typically 59.to achieve 60.from 61.which 62.is called 63.passages 64.entering 65.forms 第一节：应用文 VersionI:A Memorable Chinese Festival Expericnce Celebrating the Lantern Festival,a traditional Chinese celebration marking the end of the Lunar New Year,left a lasting imprcssion on me.

The woman nodded gratefully,her shoulders slumping with relief.Mary began to sing,her voice soft and gentle at first, like a whisper carried on the gentle wind,which gradually grew stronger and more confident.The song was simple yet engaging,weaving tales of sunshine and dreams that were easy to catch. Slowly,the baby's cries softened.Her tiny body relaxed as Mary's voice wrapped around her like a warm blanket.With the baby stopping crying and the air filled with the comforting song,the other passengers,who had been restless,began to quict down,drawn into the soothing melody.The mother's tense expression eased,and she gave Mary a grateful smile.As the song reached its end, thunderous applause crupted;turning the tedious delay into a magical musical feast.Mom leaned over and whispered, “You did it again,lifting all our spirits.” 【听力原文】 Text 1 W:Mike,have you seen Sarah?

Text 10 Good morning,everyone!Welcome to our educational program.Today,we'll talk about the development of online leaming platforms.In recent years,many platforms offer courses on various subjects,from languages to science. Though they charge fees,the number of users has grown rapidly.Some platforms now have over 50 million monthly active users.However,there are also some common problems.For example,some courses are low-quality.Also, spending too much time on screens can harm students eyesight.A recent survey shows about four out of ten students reported eye tiredness after using these platforms for over 3 hours a day.Another issue is that some students lose focus easily.They end up watching funny videos instead of studying,which lowers their learning efficiency. So,how to use these platforms effectively?First,choose courses carefully by reading reviews from other students. Second,set a daily time limit for online learning to protect your eyes.No more than 2 hours at a stretch is better.Third, combine online courses with offline study for better results. If you want to find reliable online learning resources,visit our school's official website.
