What if part of the assignment were to tell The New York Times about their own experiences with the selected news topic, and to suggest ideas for further reporting on it? And what if Times reporters were to write back to the students? If you like this idea, you’re in luck, because that’s how our new Conversations With Journalists feature will work. Why We Are Doing This As many as half of all teenagers now get their news from social media. They’re becoming more removed from the professionals on the ground who are covering current events, interviewing sources, fact-checking, photographing and editing. And with mis-and-disinformation, generative artificial intelligence and distrust in traditional media all on the rise, we believe it is more crucial than ever to help young people understand how journalism works and why it is important. How the 14-Day Cycle Will Work ·Day 1: The Learning Network publishes a link to a Times article, along with a few open-ended discussion questions and guidelines for participating. ·Days 2-8: Students post their initial reactions and questions in the Learning Network comments section. ·Days 9-13: The journalist responds to students in the comments section using the “reporter reply” feature so that readers can easily see the response. Students then continue replying to both the journalist and to other students. ·Days 13-14: The journalist shares a brief reflection about the experience of conversing with students about the article. Let Us Know What You Think If you have a question or comment, post it here and we’ll respond to you. 1. Who is the text intended for? A. Teenagers. B. Journalists. C. Parents. D. Teachers. 2. What is the purpose of the program? A. To inspire students to pursue journalism. B. To give students insights into journalism. C. To teach students how to fact-check news. D. To encourage students to share their stories. 3. On which day(s) do students get a chance to ask journalists follow-up questions? A. Day 1. B. Days 2-8. C. Days 9-13. D. Days 13-14. B When I was a child I was often told what not to eat. “You don’t want to get fat” was on constant repeat throughout my childhood. It really messed up my relationship with food — something that took me years to overcome. Because of this, I’m careful not to connect what my kids weigh with their worth as people. I encourage my daughter to make healthy snack choices and often dissuade (劝阻) her from a second dessert. But one day when I heard her saying “I think I’m too fat,” my heart sank. It made me wonder if giving her advice on snacks was having an unintentionally negative impact. According to Charlotte Markey, a professor of psychology, food is one of the rare subjects where, as parents, saying less is more. “There are so many things in parenting that are good to talk through, but I’m not convinced that food is one of them,” she says. “It just creates some worries and insecurities in kids that aren’t necessarily healthy.” Instead, she recommends applying a well-known concept among nutrition experts called the “Division of Responsibility,” where parents provide a variety of mostly healthy foods to their kids at fixed times, and the kids themselves decide what and how much they want to consume — even if that means occasionally eating more cookies than carrots. Allowing kids to eat what they want also exposes them to the natural consequences of their decisions. “When your child says, ‘My stomach hurts,’ you can say, ‘Well you had a lot of sugary foods and you might feel better if you made some other choices,’” says Markey. “Let them feel like they have some control over it.” I’ve been trying out these strategies and I’ve found that when I’m less restrictive, they do make better decisions. “Feeding is a long game,” says Markey. “The food you have available makes a huge difference. Even if they don’t eat it, they’ re seeing it. And then all of a sudden it clicks.” 4. What can be inferred about the author from the first paragraph? A. She is upset by her kids’ weight. B. She is critical of the way she was fed. C. She is interested in making food. D. She is particular about what she eats. 5. Which of the following would Markey disapprove of? A. Allowing kids to eat cookies occasionally. B. Offering various foods to kids at fixed times. C. Explaining to kids the risks of taking snacks. D. Talking with kids about school at mealtimes. 6. What should kids do according to the “Division of Responsibility”? A. Make diet decisions on their own. B. Share their food with other kids. C. Eat up what is provided for them. D. Help their parents do the dishes. 7. What does the author think of the strategies she has been following? A. Costly. B. Complex. C. Workable. D. Contradictory. C I talked with a friend recently who is overwhelmed by her workload. She asked me what tips I might have for her around time management. That question surprised me. I’ve never thought of myself as someone with great time management skills, mostly because I tend to avoid rigid productivity systems, believing that they limit creativity. It wasn’t until we parted that it hit me. I don’t focus on time management, but on energy management. Somewhere along the way, I learned that the time something takes is secondary to energy. I would argue that you could work six hours on a task that gives you energy and feel fresh and ready for what’s next. Or, you could spend three hours on a tiring and unfulfilling task and need to check out for the rest of the day. I’m a fan of making lists and getting things crossed off the list. But maturity has taught me that satisfaction comes not from crossing things off the list, but intentionality about what goes on the list. If everything on the list is an energy waste, how will it feel to get those things done? Russ Hudson, a teacher, said something recently that blew the doors open for me on this concept. He spoke about the energy of frustration (懊恼), but it could be applied to any negative emotion. He said that frustration is an addictive emotion because it causes us to be stressed. Hudson said, “Life force gets trapped in frustration.” So that extensive energy I spend being frustrated is trapping life force energy that might go to more useful, productive, creative pursuits. In a world that often focuses on getting the most out of every hour, it’s about time we should change our focus. We should pay attention to how our energy changes throughout the day, and learn how to create, use, and save it. It’s not hard to start thinking this way. We just need to be more aware of ourselves and make careful choices. 8. Why is the author’s friend mentioned in paragraph 1? A. To lead in the topic. B. To clarify a definition. C. To present a common phenomenon. D. To share a personal experience. 9. What is the author’s core argument about productivity? A. Completing tasks quickly guarantees satisfaction. B. Making task lists lays the foundation for achievements. C. Energy management matters more than time management. D. Strict time management systems are essential for success. 10. According to Russ Hudson, why is frustration problematic? A. It wastes time that could be used for work. B. It makes people ignorant of their limitations. C. It leaves people trapped in their comfort zone. D. It stops people pursuing something meaningful in life. 11. What might be talked about following the last paragraph? A. Ways to reduce negative emotions in work. B. The relationship between energy and creativity. C. The disadvantages of focusing on time management. D. Examples of managing energy through awareness and choices. D The ancient ritual(仪式的) meaning of Stonehenge is still unknown, but researchers are one step closer to understanding how the famous stone circle was created. The special stone lying flat at the center of Stonehenge was brought to the site in southern England from near the tip of northeast Scotland, researchers reported Wednesday in the journal Nature. It’s not clear whether the 5-meter stone was carried by boat or across land — a journey of more than 740 kilometers. For more than a hundred years, scientists believed that Stonehenge’s central sandstone — long called the “altar stone” — came from much closer Wales. But a study last year by some of the same researchers showed that the stone didn’t match the geology (地质) of Wales’ sandstone formations. The actual source (来源) of the stone remained unknown. Although the team was not allowed to take the rocks from the site for the study, they studied the minerals (矿物质) in small pieces of rocks that were collected in past digs, some from as far back as the 1840s. They found a match in the sandstone formations of Orcadian Basin in northeast Scotland, a place that includes parts of the tip of the Scottish peninsula as well as the Orkney Islands. The difficult work of moving the stone such a long way shows a high level of teamwork and cultural connection between these two places of ancient Britain. Stonehenge was built around 5,000 years ago, with stones forming different circles brought to the site at different times. The placement of stones allows for the sun to rise through a stone “window” during summer solstice. The ancient purpose of the altar stone — which lies flat at the heart of Stonehenge, now under other rocks — remains unknown to us. Former research has shown cultural connections — such as similarities in pottery (陶器) styles — between the area around Stonehenge and Scotland’ s Orkney Islands. Other stones at Stonehenge came from western Wales. While Britain is full of other Neolithic stone circles, the thing that’s special about Stonehenge is the distance the stones traveled. 12. What is the researchers’ new finding about Stonehenge? A. The ritual meaning Stonehenge has. B. The place the altar stone came from. C. The way the famous stone circle was created. D. The reason why the altar stone was carried to England. 13. How did the researchers study the source of the altar stone? A. By researching the geology of Wales. B. By carrying away some rocks from the site. C. By studying minerals in rock pieces collected in the past. D. By comparing the stone with other stones in nearby places. 14. What can we learn about Stonehenge from the text? A. It was built through great teamwork. B. It still has an important ritual meaning now. C. The stone lying at the center of it was carried by boat. D. The circle has remained unchanged since it was created. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. The Exact Source of the Altar Stone B. A Journey of More Than 740 Kilometers C. The Ancient Ritual Meaning of Stonehenge D. Cultural Connections Between Two Places in Britain 第二节 (共5小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分) 根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When parents are on their phones a lot, what will happen to their kids? Parents who stare at their screens instead of talking to their kids aren’t just modeling poor behavior, but they could be preventing their children's language development, a new study found. Parents who use screens more have children who use screens more. And those children have a lower talent in grammar and vocabulary. When screens are in use, either by a parent or a child, there is less talking, teaching and reading in house-holds. ___16___ What’s more, when kids watch screens with their parents, the study found it doesn’t help their language skills. ___17___ For example, kids ages 24 to 30 months learn new verbs when they are taught through a live interaction or even video chat, but not by watching a video, according to a September 2023 study. The study suggests parents should try not to spend too much time on devices when they are with their children. ___18___ Try to spare a few minutes – start with 15 minutes a day if it seems really hard-where your phone is truly out of sight, out of mind. It helps model good practices for your kids. Parents are also advised to re-evaluate whether they need to be responsive to everything that comes through on their phones in real time. We live in a world where everything seems urgent but usually actually isn't. ___19___ It’s simply not possible. ___20___ It’s never too late to repair. Spend some extra time reading together or in a no-phone zone like the dinner table. By caring about your kid’s development and looking into tips like these, you are already doing a great job. A. We don’t actually need our phones all the time. B. It is an easy way to calm children down or occupy them. C. Avoid checking your phone instead of hanging out with your friends. D. And this may be a reason for the lower grammar skills and vocabulary. E. Try not to put pressure on yourself to respond immediately to everything. F. Another research also suggests younger children don’t learn well from screens. G. But parents shouldn’t overstress if they or their child have spent much time on screens. 第三部分 英语知识运用 (共两节, 满分30分) 第一节完形填空 (共15小题; 每小题1分, 满分15分) 阅读下面短文, 从短文后各题所给的四个选项 (A、 B、C和D) 中, 选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Manuela Ribeiro has a healthy addiction.

With a heart full of dreams and a little bit of nervousness, he flew to the United Kingdom to start a new adventure. He had always imagined what it would be like to walk through the historic streets of England and meet people from different parts of the world. But as soon as he arrived at his new school, he felt a little unsure. In his new class, Li Ming struggled to start conversations with his British classmates. They spoke so quickly and used words and phrases he didn’t understand. When he tried to join their conversations, he felt shy about his accent and worried that he might say something wrong. He also noticed that British students seemed to value their personal space more than he was used to, which made it even harder for him to find the right moment to start a meaningful talk. Group work was even harder. During a group project in literature class, Li Ming had trouble explaining his ideas clearly, feeling like his ideas were getting lost in translation. And he started to doubt himself. Social events outside of class were just as difficult. At a school party, Li Ming watched his classmates laugh, dance, and sing along to the latest pop songs. He felt left out, not knowing the songs or the dance moves. He wanted to join the fun, but the fear of looking silly kept him on the sidelines. One day, the school announced a talent show. Li Ming, who practiced traditional Chinese kung fu, really wanted to try. While he was hesitating, a group of British students interested in cultural performances invited him to join them. Li Ming agreed. 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。 Para 1: During their practice, the group was amazed by Li Ming’s Chinese kung fu. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Para 2: After the show, Li Ming noticed some changes happening. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 培优部 高二英语期中考试试题 (考试时间: 120分钟 试卷满分: 150分) 注意事项: 1. 答卷前, 考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2. 回答选择题时, 选出每小题答案后, 用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动, 用橡皮擦干净后, 再选涂其他答案标号。写在本试卷上无效。 3. 回答非选择题时, 将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 4. 测试范围: 英语高考范围 5. 考试结束后, 将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分听力 (共两节, 满分30分) 第一节 (共5小题: 每小题1.5分, 满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题, 从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后, 你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音读两遍。 1.
