Back in September 1966, she started her television journey and became a reporter at the BBC Southwest branch. During her first broadcast (电视节目), Angela felt a bit scared. “I was doing a live report in front of the camera. When I got home, my dad said I looked like a rabbit caught in car headlights.” Her father gave her wise advice: “Next time you look at the camera, just imagine you’re telling me a story.” A few years later, Angela went to London to try her luck as a reporter. In 1975, she became the first regular female newsreader at the BBC and also the first woman to host the program “Nine O’ Clock News”. People at that time thought women didn’t have the authority and credibility (可信度) needed for a newsreader. Angela’s appointment (任命) was widely discussed. Then Angela left the BBC and joined the hosting team of TV-am. However, the program didn’t go well. She was fired just three months after it started because she broke a technical clause (技术条款) and was unemployed for a year. Luckily, later she got an opportunity to go to the United States. She worked as a reporter at CBS and spent a wonderful year. There, she also won an Emmy Award. When she returned to the UK, she was invited to make comments on newspapers for BBC’s “Breakfast Time”. A week later, she was invited to host programs such as “Masterteam”, “Come Dancing” and “Crufts”. Today, Angela remains a journalist at heart. “I think it’s very important to do a lot of news work in my job,” she said. “For me, being a journalist means being able to organize words to tell an appealing story that is worth listening to or reading.” 24．What can we infer about Angela from her father’s comment on her first broadcast? A．She was quite nervous. B．She made a big mistake. C．She was not well-prepared for it. D．She didn’t know how to do storytelling. 25．Why was Angela’s appointment widely discussed in 1975? A．She was too young to take the role. B．She had no experience in hosting programs. C．She left the BBC Southwest branch without being allowed. D．She faced doubts about women’s qualities as newsreaders. 26．What happened soon after Angela joined the hosting team of TV-am? A．She won many awards. B．She lost her job. C．She was invited to the US. D．She was pushed out by other hosts. 27．What is the best title for the text? A．A journalist following the light. B．Lessons from a father’ s advice. C．The woman who changed the news. D．A career built on luck. C You generally have reasons, good or bad, for your ideas. You can think carefully about those reasons: “Why do I think there’s someone quietly hiding in the room? It’s because the floor made a strange sound.” And you can also change your ideas when additional proof requires it: “Having searched the room, I must conclude that it’s just an old house.” This thinking skill is known as belief revision. It’s long been considered a mark that sets us apart from other animals. But a recent study shows that chimps (黑猩猩) can also weigh information and update their belief. In a series of experiments, researchers in Uganda tested chimps to see how the animals dealt with different sources of information. Each experiment used the food hidden in one of several boxes. The chimps would pick the box they thought was most promising based on an original clue (线索). Then they’d get another clue that sometimes disagreed with the first. Given the chance to update their decision, they almost always chose the box supported by a rational (理智的) choice model and changed their mind when the new information was stronger than what they already knew. Most impressively, the chimps even considered clues that went against earlier information. If they heard something inside box 1, according to previous experience, they would believe at first that it was an apple. But then the researchers would pull out a stone. Realizing they had been misled, the chimps would immediately choose box 2, even though it had appeared uninteresting a moment before. This study reminds us that those skills developed from thinking abilities that were already present in the common ancestor we share with chimps. More than 150 years ago, Charles Darwin thought that our mental powers would turn out to be developments of abilities found throughout the animal world. If chimps are truly able to think reasonably, the difference between us and them narrows a bit further. 28．How does the author present the idea in paragraph 1? A．By presenting an expert’s words. B．By giving an example. C．By putting forward a suggestion. D．By making a comparison. 29．How did the chimps make choices in the experiment? A．They stuck to their first choice. B．They preferred boxes that made sounds. C．They behaved based on their hunger level. D．They weighed new proof thoughtfully. 30．What can be inferred from paragraph 3? A．Chimps could realize they had got wrong information. B．Chimps could communicate well with the researchers. C．Chimps showed no interest in things other than apples. D．Chimps always failed to find hidden food at their first try. 31．Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A．The Development of Chimps’ Thinking. B．Ways to Develop Rational Thinking Skills. C．A Special Ability Shared by Humans and. D．Differences between Humans and Animals Chimps. D Researchers in Switzerland recently taught the one-armed, four-legged ANYmal search and rescue robot to play badminton against a human. This is far from the first time robots have been trained to play sports. They’ve run marathons, skied and played ping pong. There’s even a football RoboCup. However, it’s not all fun and games. “Sports require skills,” says D’Andrea, a professor in robotics and Al. “If you want to create robots that have the ability to deal with the physical environment, you can use sports as a way of training.” The skills can then be put to work in environments that are too dull, dirty, or dangerous for humans. Sports also catch people’s attention and serve as an interesting way to show new technological advances. Though the skills robots learn from sports are mostly used in factories or dangerous jobs, the technology is already becoming a big part of sports themselves. For example, technologies like electronic line-calling (ELC) are taking the place of line judges in tennis games. However, there’s doubt whether this improves the viewer experience. For the fans, the joy of sports is that you never know what will happen. If a robot tennis player takes the field, it might attract people’s attention at first but, after a while, would anyone want to watch it? “People enjoy watching sports because they connect with the athletes. Anything that lets robots play instead of these athletes is not going to be a success,” says D’Andrea. The same is likely true for anything where human’s feelings play a central part. For over twenty years,the Japanese govemment has spent billions in developing robots for elderly people in care homes.But the use has been low. So far, it has shown that the robots didn’t alleviate the work for carers but create more. There’s a difference between pushing what tech can do and applying those tools in the wrong places. So, for now, sports people can rest easy. “I think we have to be careful that we don’t go too far just to save time and effort,” says D’Andrea. “I would ask the question: why do we want to take the place of people?” 32．Why are sports used to train robots? A．To test robots’ sporting ability. B．To improve athletes’ sports skills. C．To show an interesting way for people. D．To develop skills for real-world tasks. 33．What makes viewer experience successful? A．Match results. B．The athletes the fans love. C．Athletes’efforts. D．The skills. 34．What does the underlined word “alleviate” in Paragraph 5 mean? A．Arrange. B．Stress. C．Reduce. D．Change. 35．What is the best title for the passage? A．Robot Athletes? All for Fun! B．Should Robots Take the Sports Field? C．Sports Robots: the Wrong Thing. D．ANYmal: Robots for Dangerous Jobs. 第二节（共12.5小题；每小题1.5分，满分22.5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。 As the college entrance examination was approaching, I was under great pressure in senior three. I fixed my mind entirely on review every day, wishing to improve my grades steadily. The constant chirps from a bird nest in the old banyan tree outside the window always disturbed my study. 36 I even discussed with my classmates whether we could ask the school to remove the nest. 37 He did not criticize our selfish idea at all. In his reply, he told us that every small life should be respected, and we needed to learn to live in harmony with birds while pursuing our dreams. To help us study better, the school prepared thick sound-proof curtains and changed part of our evening self-study time properly. We were moved by the headmaster’s kindness. 38 The teacher introduced that these birds were in their breeding period and would leave campus soon. She also told us the importance of protecting wild birds and keeping the ecological balance. My annoyance with the chirps disappeared little by little. One day after class, I went close to the banyan tree to watch the nest. I saw the mother bird flying back and forth with food for her babies. The warm picture made me feel soft in my heart. 39 ． This experience has changed my attitude towards life. 40 I finally understood that real growth is not only gaining excellent academic results but also learning to be tolerant, gentle and respectful to all lives around us.

He loved reading books more than anything else in the world. Every week, he made it a rule to finish two books. His favorite thing was getting lost in stories by great writers. For years, he dreamed of writing and publishing his own novel and even started working on one. But when Jack turned forty-five, something terrible happened. He developed a serious eye problem. Day by day, his eyesight got worse. Soon, reading a page made his eyes burn, and watching TV for more than ten minutes felt like a struggle. What he loved most became impossible. The sight of his bookshelf, filled with unread novels and his half-finished novel, only deepened his pain. Jack stopped smiling. He stayed in his room all day, feeling hopeless and alone. On the other side of the town, a 15-year-old student named Clare learned about Reading Friends, a charity program in Britain, which invites volunteers to visit people who can’t read anymore and read books aloud to them. Clare thought it sounded amazing and signed up right away. He imagined the joy of bringing stories back to those who had lost access to them, hoping his young voice could bridge the gap of silence. When he heard about Jack’s story, he decided to help. At first, Jack refused Clare’s offer. “What’s the point?” he told his wife Sadie who couldn’t read due to her illness. “I’m not the reader I used to be.” Three times, he closed the door on Clare. But the young volunteer didn’t give up. One day, he called Sadie and asked what kind of books Jack liked. “Ernest Hemingway,” Sadie replied. “He’s read all of Hemingway’s novels at least twice.” Hearing this, Clare had an idea. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 The next Saturday afternoon, Clare came to Jack’s house again. On a sunny Saturday, Jack mentioned his half-finished novel. 英语试题第1页（共1页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 玉溪一中2025—2026学年下学期高一期中考 英语试题评分参考 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 1-5 CBCAB 6-10 BACBC 11-15 CACBC 16-20ABAAC 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1.5分，满分27.5分） A：ABD B：ADBC C：BDAC D：DBCB 第二节（共12.5小题；每小题1.5分，满分22.5分） 36—40 ACDBE 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） 41—45BDCAB 46—50BACAD 51—55BACDA 第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 56.to learn 57.was held 58.dynasties 59.dressed 60.of 61.performance 62.where 63.taking 64.enjoyed 65.deeply 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） One possible version： Dear Sir or Madam, I’m LiHua.Learning that our school is looking for an English host for the Youth Day art show,I'm writing to apply for the position.

On a sunny Saturday,Jack mentioned his half-finished novel.His voice trembled slightly as he described the story he had leftbehind years ago.Without a word,Clare pulled out his laptop and placed it on the table.Word by word,Jack dictated,and Claretyped.Encouraged by the young volunteer,Jack poured his heart into the book.After months of hard work,the novel was finallycompleted and then published with Clare's help.When the printed book arrived,Jack held it in his trembling hands,a wide smilespreading across his face.He realized that his dream as a writer had never truly been lost.More importantly,he had gainedsomething just as precious-a friendship that reminded him he was never alone. 英语试题评分参考第1页（共1页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
