Initially, I felt unsure about how I’d fit into such a hearing-centric world. When I visited the Stanford Red Barn, I had an urge to try out for the team. There, I discovered that the head coach, Vanessa Bartsch, had taken ASL during her own student years. She was completely calm by meeting a deaf rider and seemed excited to practice her ASL again. I left feeling thrilled, realizing there was a place for me here. Once I made the team, that training field become my second home. I began teaching Bartsch and my teammates some horsey vocabulary in ASL. During practice, I’d fix my gaze between my horse’s ears, then glance sideways at my ASL interpreter as she signed the coach’s instructions. She’d be jogging to stay within my viewing range, interpreting while also trying to stay clear of oncoming hurt from horses. I was amazed at how many forms of communication were happening at once, spoken and signed, human and horse. Beyond the riding, the routine chores at the barn taught me that our horses were far more than sporting equipment. Being an equestrian athlete is different from other sports, not least because of the bonds that can stir from this shared love for the smell of horses. My Stanford teammates and I did not always understand each other perfectly-but my time on the team showed me that human language isn’t always essential for experiencing a deep connection with another living being. Today, I am an author. Good writing feels like riding a horse — each sentence moves forward with rhythm and power. Sometimes, crafting my written works reminds me of Red Barn, which shaped my thoughts just as much as any literature class ever did. 1. Why did the author feel it possible to join the Stanford Red Barn? A. The team favored disabled riders. B. She had rich equestrian experience. C. The coach reacted positively to her. D. She’s involved in many school subjects. 2. What contributed to the author’s successful horse riding practice? A. Extra training from the coach. B. The improvement of her hearing. C. Her self-taught horsey vocabulary. D. The assistance from the interpreter. 3. What message does the author intend to convey through her experience? A. Practice makes perfect. B. ASL is key to team success. C. Connection exists beyond words. D. Sports inspire writing career. B No business would welcome being compared to gambling (赌博). Yet that is what is happening to makers of video games. For years parents have complained that their children are “addicted” to their video games and smartphones. Today, however, even more doctors are using the term. On January 1 this year, “gaming disorder” — in which games are played uncontrollably, despite causing harm — gained recognition from the World Health Organization (WHO). Are games really addictive? Psychologists have different opinions. Those who don’t think so say that this is just another moral panic. Similar warnings have been given about television, rock’n’roll, jazz, comic books, novels and even crossword puzzles, but it turns out that they are not as harmful as expected. However, supporters argue that game developers have the motivation and the means to design their products to make them extremely attractive. For one thing, the business-model has changed: In the old days, games were bought once and for all. But these days, games are free and money is earned from purchases of in-game goods, which ties playtime directly to revenue (收益). For another, game-makers combine psychological theory and data, which helps them maximize the playtime. Smartphones and modern video game machines use their permanent Internet connections to send gameplay data back to developers. In this way products are constantly adjusted to encourage players’ spending. The biggest spenders are known as “whales”, a term that originated in casinos (赌场). The gaming industry should realize that, in the real world, it has a problem, and that problem is growing. Now that gaming addiction comes with an official WHO recognition, diagnoses will become more common. Anyway, being put together with gambling in the public mind, fairly or not, will not do the industry any good. 4. What do we know from Paragraph 1? A. It is not suitable to compare video games to gambling. B. Parents complain about their children’s addiction to gambling. C. Gaming addiction was officially recognized as a disease. D. More doctors are against the use of the term “addicted”. 5. What does the underlined words “moral panic” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Unexpected addiction caused by science and technology. B. Wrong judgment on how harmful something is. C. Trouble caused by someone’s immoral behavior. D. An astonishing claim of the unexpected panic. 6. What is the best title for the text? A. Addiction: A Warning to the Gaming Industry B. Addiction: Not a Blame on Games C. Games: A New Kind of Gambling D. Games: The Cause of Mental Disorder C Imagine scrolling (滚屏)through social media late at night and suddenly seeing photos of your friends having fun without you. You may begin to wonder why you were not invited or what you did wrong. Soon, feelings of sadness or disappointment appear. This experience is commonly known as FOMO, or the fear of missing out. It is the anxiety and unease about how others might be having more rewarding experiences than you are. FOMO can be a passing thought that enters your mind after seeing something you wish you were a part of — a video of a concert, for example, or a picture of a graduation party. Or it can appear as an urge to check your phone for messages and updates. You might sit alone, feeling envious about how much fun others are having as you scroll through your feed, only to later realize how much time has passed you by. This fear can affect your behavior by creating a cycle of unhealthy habits that worsen your emotional well-being. Maybe you end up agreeing to every invitation that comes your way out of fear that you’ll miss out on some magical moments, thus overcommitting yourself to events and feeling exhausted. If you’re constantly checking your phone, you’ll have a harder time focusing on tasks in front of you and may end up making more mistakes. Also, being glued to your phone late at night can make it harder to fall asleep and harm your physical and mental well-being. If it feels like FOMO and social media have taken over your life, know that there are ways to regain control. It starts with developing a better understanding of yourself, including your feelings, motives, and values. Then, you can cut down on worry by developing mindfulness, managing anxiety, and limiting your social media usage. Besides, building self-respect and establishing genuine relationships will allow you to better appreciate your own experiences. While you experience FOMO, the things you’re “missing out on” might be right in front of you. You can pull yourself back to the present moment, appreciate what’s happening in your life, and build a better sense of well-being. 7. Why does the text begin with a situation related to social media? A. To present a typical social activity. B. To criticize a common online habit. C. To explain the impact of social media. D. To introduce a psychological concept. 8. What can be inferred about FOMO according to paragraph 2? A. It lasts only for a short time. B. It shows up in different ways. C. It decreases work efficiency. D. It weakens one’s ties with friends. 9. Which can be a behavioral impact of FOMO according to the text? A. Calling friends for help late at night. B. Giving a like to a friend’s social post. C. Attending all available social activities. D. Handling multiple tasks at the same time. 10. What does the author think of FOMO? A. Harmful but manageable. B. Common but overlooked. C. Interrupting but educational. D. Underestimated but avoidable. 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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 A Cleaner-Artist: Working to Live, Creating to Thrive At 5 am, 59-year-old Wang Liyun has already begun her morning reading.

Mr. Roberts had divided the class into groups to do presentations (做演讲). Today had been Niesha’s turn. However, her hands had shaken so badly that she couldn’t read her notes. Her voice had become softer even to silence. Mr. Roberts had kindly ended Niesha’s part of the presentation even though she had clearly not finished. He had also asked Niesha to stay after class for a moment. “Niesha, I know you’re shy, but you worked hard on this project. I’d hate to see you give up on yourself.” Mr. Roberts had hesitated, “If I give you another chance until tomorrow, do you think you can find your courage?” Niesha had nodded, grateful for the chance. She had gone as quickly as she could to her next class. She had kept her head down and hoped the school day would end soon. When she reached her back steps that afternoon, she could see an inviting light coming from the kitchen windows. Momma was baking. Momma studied Niesha’s face as she came into the kitchen. “What’s wrong, Niesha?” Tears sh one in Niesha’s brown eyes. She told her the whole story. Momma was silent for a moment, her hands still busy with the cake. “Why is it that you can talk to me about anything and everything, but you can’t talk to your class?” Momma asked. She set the timer and then said, “Let me show you something.” Niesha followed Momma to her bedroom. There Momma showed her a book filled with newspaper clippings and pictures. In it there was a blue ribbon that said “First Place” and a picture of herself when she was very young, standing with her parents. “I won it for public speaking. I started the school year as the shyest girl on the speech team, but I ended the year as the blue ribbon (丝带) winner. It wasn’t easy at first — not sure of myself at all. I worked hard, and mostly I faced my fears. You just need to find your courage.” 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。 Hearing Momma’s words, Niesha looked at the precious blue ribbon, lost in thought. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next day Niesha again walked to the front of the classroom to give her presentation. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 东莞市第一中学2025-2026学年度第二学期期中检测 高二英语 第一部分 听力 (共两节，满分20分) 第一节 听力理解 (两段共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 每段播放两遍。各段后有几个小题，每段播放前每小题有5秒钟的阅题时间。请根据各段播放内容及其相关小题，在5秒钟内从题中所给的A、B、C项中选出最佳选项。 听第一段对话，回答第1~2题。 1.

She imagined the scene where her momma tried her best to overcome her fears and pluck up her courage to deliver a fantastic speech to the audience. Perceiving Neisha’s anxiety, Momma reassured her and reached out her hand to tie the blue ribbon onto Niesha’s wrist with a disarming smile. Restored and determined, she gritted her teeth to find her courage. In front of the mirror parked Neisha continuously practicing from pronunciation to tone, even gesture. “Try harder,” she perked herself up when drowsiness fell upon her. The next day Niesha again walked to the front of the classroom to give her presentation. Shy, she customarily lowered her head and averted her gaze, numb there for seconds. Shortly afterwards, courage found its way back the moment she caught sight of the blue ribbon. Comforted and inspired, she took a deep breath, summoned up her courage, “Dear fellow students, ...” Niesha cast a glance at Mr. Roberts standing in the corner smiling at her. A self-reassuring smile spread across Niesha’s face. She knew for sure that she had found her courage, in the mill and in the adversity. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
