There was a convenience store just a few blocks away from the park. Lily hurried there, bought a bag of dog food and a bottle of water, and then rushed back. The dog was still lying where she had left it, its eyes following her movements. She took a deep breath, as if gathering up the courage, knelt down again, opened the dog food, and gently placed some in front of it. The dog hesitated for a moment, and then slowly stood up on its weak legs. It smelled the food cautiously before starting to eat hungrily. Lily touched its matted fur softly, and the dog looked up at her with gratitude. After finishing the food, it rubbed her hand gently, as if showing its affection. Lily decided to take it home and look for its owner. She named it Lucky, hoping it would have a better life from now on. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025—2026学年惠州市泰雅实验高中高二下学期第一次月考试题 英语 本试卷满分130分，考试用时120分钟。 注意事项： 1、答题前，先将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在试题卷和答题卡上，并将准考证号条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2、选择题的作答：每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑，写在试题卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 3、非选择题的作答：用签字笔直接答在答题卡上对应的答题区域内。写在试题卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 4、考试结束后，请将本试题卷和答题卡一并上交。 第一部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5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。 A With such a strong artistic heritage, it’s no surprise that England knocks it out of the park when it comes to world-class art galleries. These are the galleries you need to add to your must-visit list. Royal Academy of Arts (RA), London Not your standard gallery, the Royal Academy of Arts is led by artists to promote not just the appreciation of art, but its practice. It is world-famous for hosting some exhibitions that get everyone talking. Besides, what sets the RA apart is its engagement with the public through participatory (参与式的) experiences, allowing visitors to not only view art but become part of it in innovative ways. Yorkshire Sculpture Park, West Yorkshire Tearing up the rulebook when it comes to how we traditionally view art, the Yorkshire Sculpture Park tries to break down barriers by showing works from British and international artists in the open air. Set in hundreds of acres of West Yorkshire parkland, the park features sculptures by some of the leading artists of the 20th century. Whitworth, Manchester After a sky-high £15 million development, the Whitworth is becoming one of the premier galleries in the north of England. Making full use of its picturesque park setting, the gallery has a beautiful art garden and a sculpture terrace (露天平台), all waiting to be explored. Inside the gallery, you can view an exciting program of ever-changing exhibitions. 1. What is special about Royal Academy of Arts? A. It holds exhibitions in a traditional way. B. It occupies a vast space in the museum. C. It displays works by senior artists. D. It offers interactive experiences. 2. What do Yorkshire Sculpture Park and Whitworth have in common? A. They are small in scale. B. They offer outdoor settings. C. They feature modern works. D. They host exhibitions on an annual basis. 3. Where is the text probably taken from? A. A travel guidebook. B. A film magazine. C. A science report. D. A history book. B “I was dead for 67 minutes. It’s a miracle that I’m here today.” Those are the words of Bruce Richardson, who survived a heart attack in July 2016 thanks to the quick actions of his friends and the first responders who refused to give up. It was an early summer morning, a typical Saturday. Bruce volunteered as usual in the community center. “I had no symptoms that there was any problem. It was a completely normal morning; I felt fine,” he shared. “I was visiting with friends. Then, I passed out. I know what happened next from what others have told me.” Bruce’s friend, Jack, had learned how to perform CPR, and he quickly began chest presses. Another friend, Doug, dialed 911 and the operator walked him through chest presses until the first responders arrived. Once the ambulance arrived, the emergency medical workers tried five times to restart Bruce’s heart with an AED. By this time, Bruce had been without a heartbeat for over 30 minutes, often when time of death is called. On the phone with an emergency room doctor, one of the emergency medical workers was instructed to try two AEDs simultaneously (同时地). It worked; Bruce’s heart began to beat again. Incredibly, he awoke the next day and was able to communicate. After a week, Bruce made a full recovery and left the hospital. Since Bruce’s cardiac arrest, he has been able to return to a normal life with some differences. He now is a passionate CPR advocate. He has shared his story in the news, and last year he was a guest speaker at the Association’s Indianapolis Heart & Stroke Ball to encourage people to spread the message of CPR. Finally, Bruce shared his story in a video now being used to promote American Heart Association Hands-Only CPR machines set up around the country. 4. What made Bruce’s survival from a severe heart attack possible? A. The doctor’s first aid without delay. B. His friends’ proper guidance on performing CPR. C. His volunteer experiences in the community center. D. The instant actions of his friends and the first responders. 5. What can we infer from Bruce’s heart attack incident? A. He had a clear memory of the whole rescue process in detail. B. The 911 operator was the first person to perform CPR on Bruce. C. The medical staff declared his death after 30 minutes of no heartbeat. D. It was extremely rare for him to survive such a long time without a heartbeat. 6. Why did Bruce share his story in a video? A. To advocate the application of CPR. B. To appeal to more people to volunteer. C. To share his struggle for a normal life. D. To enhance people’s awareness of fitness. 7. What can we conclude from the text? A. Hard work will pay off one day. B. The knowledge of first aid counts. C. Ease your mind when panic arises. D. Learn to live in the present if in trouble. C Heidi Tait, co-founder of Tangaroa Blue, an organization committed to beach cleaning, was puzzled when she and her teammates started finding strange tire-shaped capsules washed ashore along the Cape York coast, near Australia’s northeastern tip. But Tait eventually connected with Satlink — a Spanish satellite communications company. Satlink’s GPS-enabled buoys (浮标), the ones the beach cleaners kept finding, help commercial fishers track their nets, lines, etc. Tait had a brainwave that would see the buoys not just recycled but reused. For more than a decade, boat crews working farther west, in Australia’s Gulf of Carpentaria, had been telling Tait about how abandoned fishing nets were circling the gulf, hurting sea creatures. These so-called ghost (幽灵) nets had either broken free from commercial fishing boats and gotten lost, or were cut loose by fishers after getting caught on rocks. Weighing a few tonnes each, the nets that boat crews had chanced upon in the gulf were often too big for them to pull out of the water. They’d typically report the finds to the authorities, but by the time anyone with an appropriately equipped boat could head out to get one, the mass of messy rope had often gone from sight. However, once one of the GPS-enabled buoys is attached, it sends its location every few hours to a website, which lets Tangaroa Blue monitor the nets’ movements and warns the organization of danger. So far, the reused GPS trackers have helped Tangaroa Blue recover three ghost nets from Australian waters. Tangaroa Blue’s idea to track ghost nets isn’t entirely new; researchers with the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO), Australia’s national science agency, suggested it a decade ago. Taking the idea on board, the authorities tried using battery-powered trackers to monitor a few ghost nets. Tangaroa Blue’s approach differs in that its recycled buoys are solar powered and require less upkeep. 8. What were the tire-shaped capsules initially used for? A. Recycling vehicle tires. B. Removing beach waste. C. Locating fishing equipment. D. Adjusting satellite signals. 9. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 2? A. Present a practical solution. B. Describe a technical process. C. Illustrate a potential function. D. Clarify the background of an issue. 10. What does the underlined word “upkeep” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Regular repair and care. B. Constant solar power supply. C. Frequent purchase of batteries. D. Real-time position monitoring. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. Turning Waste into Treasure: A Fix to Ghost Nets B. Fighting Threats: The Hidden Harm of Ghost Nets C. Financing Change: Innovative Ocean Clean-Up Plans D. Protecting Seas from Waste: An Activist of Conservation D When margarine (人造黄油) was first sold in the 1800s, plentiful alarmist words were uttered about it. However, it was simply a cream of vegetable oil and water, a processed, more sustainable and healthier alternative to an animal product. Anxiety about new foods and how they are produced continues today. Public discussions are full of concerns that “ultra-processed foods” or “UPFs” are downright unhealthy. One particular category in a fierce spotlight is plant-based meats. But how and where food is made doesn’t determine how safe or nutritious it is. The term UPFs was first used in 2009 by Carlos Monteiro, a nutritionist. In a 2017 paper, he said he was worried that the shared experience of cooking was being increasingly lost and people weren’t eating together. In particular, he was seeing rising rates of diabetes and obesity. Keen to identify the root cause of these issues, he focused on food not made at home, but in factories. But the thing is that, as Monteiro has stated openly, the UPF categorisation was never designed to group foods on the basis of nutrition. Just like pork sausages and chicken popcorn, plant-based alternatives are made in factories, so are considered UPFs. But unlike those animal products, they don’t require antibiotics (抗生素) or hormones during production, require up to 96 percent less land, have carbon emissions up to 98 percent lower, need up to 99 percent less water and result in 100 percent fewer animals dying. And side by side, they are almost always healthier than the over-processed animal meat products they replace, especially on fat and fibre content. Just compare the labels on the packets next time you are in the supermarket. Many loud voices are raising concerns, suggesting that all UPFs, especially plant-based meats, are “unnatural”, “fake” and “full of chemicals”. We are seeing history repeat itself, and a fear of new foods being aroused all over again. But the science is unmistakably clear: Diets rich in plant-based options are better for both people and the planet, factory or no factory. 12. Why does the author mention margarine in paragraph 1? A. To stress the sales dilemma margarine faced before. B. To illustrate people’s misunderstanding about margarine. C. To emphasize people’s long-standing worry about novel foods. D. To show the ignored benefits of margarine to people’s health. 13. Why did Monteiro create the UPF categorisation? A. To classify the food made at home. B. To encourage people to cook and eat together. C. To discover the cause of some rising health problems. D. To determine the nutrition level of factory-produced food. 14. What do the numbers in paragraph 3 imply? A. Plant-based meats are more eco-friendly. B. Plant-based meats shouldn’t be considered as UPFs. C. Plant-based meats will replace UPF animal meat products. D. Plant-based meats are healthier than sausages and popcorn. 15. What does the author think of the concern over plant-based meats? A. Alarming. B. Unnecessary. C. Temporary. D. Reasonable. 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。 Many people think that being healthy is a difficult task that involves lots of dieting and time at the gym. 16 By supporting your body and mind, making some simple changes to your routine, and setting small goals for yourself, you can be on the path towards living a healthier, happier life. 17 While carbohydrates (碳水化合物) are an important part of your diet, simple sugar can be harmful to your health. It provides a quick energy increase that then bottoms out, causing you to feel hungry faster. Simple sugars, except for fruit, are also high-calorie and lacking in nutrients. It’s best to avoid sweets and added sugar, but you can include them in moderation. Exercise wisely. It should go without saying that there are bad ways to work out. Every time you get moving you put yourself at risk for injury, so make sure you’re doing it right! First things first, stay hydrated (水分充足). You should always be drinking water during your workouts. Getting dehydrated can lead to dizziness or headaches during your sweat session. Take breaks! It isn’t being lazy, it’s being healthy. 18 After 30 minutes or so of exercise, grab your water bottle and lighten up. Your body needs a second to catch up. You’ll be able to go further in the long run. Manage stress. This one is huge. 19 Take yourself aside for five minutes and think about your stress levels — how are you managing it? What could you do to be more calm and relaxed? When you feel stressed, do breathing exercises or breathe deeply to calm yourself and relax your body. For example, try breathing in for 5 seconds, holding your breath for 7 seconds, and slowly breathing out for 8 seconds. Create a daily routine. A routine can help you stick to your eating, exercising, and stress reduction goals. It also ensures you have time to do the things you want to do. 20 A. But that’s actually not true! B. You can’t go-go-go forever. C. It’s a lifestyle that can be had 24/7. D. Create a routine that works for you! E. A very healthy way of managing stress is doing yoga. F. Limit or completely remove simple sugars in your diet. G. When stress takes over our lives, everything else falls apart. 第二部分 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） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 When I was fourteen, I was going through one of the lowest points in my life. 21 with anxiety, loneliness, and a lack of self-worth, I usually hid my 22 , convinced that no one would truly appreciate them.

A gentle breeze carried the sweet smell of open roses from a nearby flower bed, making the air feel fresh and pleasant. Children’s laughter could be heard in the distance as they ran after each other around the playground, and an old man sat on a wooden bench, feeding pigeons with a bag of breadcrumbs (面包屑). Lily was walking along the path, enjoying the peaceful atmosphere, when something caught her eye. Under a tall oak tree at the edge of the park, there was a small dog lying up on the grass. It was a dirty little thing, with matted (乱蓬蓬的) fur that was a mix of brown and white. Its bones were clearly visible beneath its thin coat, and its eyes looked dull and tired, as if it hadn’t had a good night’s sleep in days. Lily’s heart went out to the poor creature. She slowed down and approached it cautiously, not wanting to scare it. As she got closer, she could see that the dog was trembling slightly, even though the afternoon was warm. It lifted its head weakly when it heard her footsteps, but didn’t have the energy to stand up. Lily knelt down beside it and softly said, “Hey, little guy, are you okay?” The dog just looked at her with a sad expression, as if asking for help. Lily felt a strong feeling of compassion. She couldn’t just leave the poor dog there to suffer. She thought about the snacks she had in her bag, but they were all human food that probably wasn’t good for the dog. So she made up her mind to go and buy some proper dog food. 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。 She stood up and looked around. The dog hesitated for a moment, and then slowly stood up on its weak legs. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
