The following four titles offer readers different but equally rewarding journeys. The Pale Blue Data Point An Earth-Based Perspective on the Search for Alien Life Jon Willis This book explores how scientists search for life beyond Earth. It introduces planets, space technology, and the questions researchers ask when looking for unknown life in the universe. “An enlightening read... a charming and approachable look at how scientists are hunting beyond Earth for life unknown to us.” — Gregory J. Gbur Decoding the Hand A History of Science, Medicine, and Magic Alison Bashford Bashford examines how people across history studied the hand, believing that its shape, size, and lines could reveal health, personality, and even fate. “A richly detailed and thought-provoking (发人深省的) history that reveals how the hand has stood at the crossroads of knowledge, belief, and culture.” — Simon Schaffer, University of Cambridge The World in a Phrase A Brief History of the Aphorism (格言) (Second Edition) James Geary This book traces the history of short, powerful sayings and explains why aphorisms remain popular in literature and daily communication. “Clear, lively, and full of insight, this book shows why brief sayings continue to shape the way we think and speak.” — The New York Times The Notebook A History of Thinking on Paper Roland Allen Allen tells the story of the notebook and shows how it has helped travelers, writers, scientists, and artists record ideas and shape their thinking. “A fascinating account of an everyday object that has quietly influenced the way people collect knowledge and develop ideas.” — Publishers Weekly 21. What is Jon Willis’s book mainly about? A. The hunt for life outside Earth. B. The mystery of planet formation. C. The history of human spaceflights. D. The development of space technologies. 22. Who reviewed Decoding the Hand? A. Alison Bashford. B. Simon Schaffer. C. James Geary. D. Roland Allen. 23. What do the last two books have in common? A. They mix literature and science. B. They teach creative writing skills. C. They improve daily communication. D. They relate to thinking and expression. B Have you ever let circumstances convince you that your dreams are out of reach? Nancy Solari’s life is a powerful answer to that doubt — she turned blindness, loss, and hardship into a life of purpose, proving that “vision” has little to do with sight. At 10, Nancy watched The Oprah Winfrey Show and knew she wanted to be a host. She later studied Broadcasting and Psychology, building an early career in production and on-air reporting. But at 16, a diagnosis of Retinitis Pigmentosa — a degenerative eye disease — changed everything. Her vision faded slowly: first, reading teleprompters became a struggle, then faces blurred, until she was legally blind. She also faced domestic violence, family tensions, and painful personal loss, each challenge strengthening her resilience. One thing that sets Nancy apart is the way she connects with people in interviews. Instead of depending on prewritten notes, she prepares by listening closely and allowing guests’ stories of heartbreak and success to shape the conversation. “I don’t read notes,” she once shared. “The dialogue unfolds naturally, and guests often find it therapeutic.” Today, Nancy’s influence reaches far beyond broadcasting. She hosts The Living Full Out Show, a radio and TV platform reaching millions, and founded Nonprofit MVP, a TV competition that offers exposure and prizes to worthy nonprofits. As a coach and speaker, she encourages people to turn obstacles into opportunities. For Nancy, “Living Full Out” — her life’s mantra (信条) — means trusting in faith, asking for help when necessary, and refusing to let adversity define her story. Her journey teaches us a timeless lesson: Our greatest limitations are often the ones we accept. With purpose and courage, even the darkest challenges can become the foundation of our brightest achievements. 24. Why does the author mention The Oprah Winfrey Show in paragraph 2? A. To introduce the history of broadcasting. B. To show Nancy’s early interest in psychology. C. To identify the source of Nancy’s career dream. D. To compare Nancy’s hosting style with Oprah’s. 25. How does Nancy make her interviews special? A. By using detailed prewritten notes. B. By developing conversations naturally. C. By inviting famous guests to her show. D. By focusing on guests’ success stories. 26. Which of the following can best describe Nancy? A. Determined and influential. B. Humorous and relaxed. C. Quiet and dependent. D. Strict and doubtful. 27. What message does this text mainly convey? A. Media work needs special skills. B. Loss can prevent personal growth. C. Purpose and courage beat hardship. D. Success depends on public support. C Why do people often make choices that seem irrational (不理智的)? Consider the “peanuts effect”: when offered $0.10 for sure or a 10% chance of $1, many pick the risky option. But if the stakes (份额) rise to $1,000 vs. a 10% chance of $10,000, most choose the guaranteed money. This reversal has long puzzled economists, who once viewed it as a weakness in human reasoning. A 2025 study in Cognitive Psychology challenges that view, framing such behavior as an optimization strategy rather than a mistake. Led by Dr. Zhang Hang’s team, the research developed an “Assemblable Resource-Rational Modules” (ARRM) framework, modeling decision-making as information processing with limited cognitive resources. The team tested two key hypotheses (假说). First, the “rational inattention” assumption: brains devote more focus to high-stakes choices. When rewards grow, people invest extra cognitive effort to estimate probabilities accurately. Second, the“structural prior” hypothesis: lifetime experience teaches us that “higher risk means higher return,” so we lean on this rule for small stakes. Analyzing new and published data, the ARRM framework successfully explained the peanuts effect’s core features. “What looks illogical is actually the brain’s way of saving resources,” Zhang explains. For small rewards, the effort to calculate exact probabilities isn’t worth it — so we use simple rules. For large rewards, precision becomes valuable. This research changes our understanding of decision-making: apparent anomalies often reflect logical resource management. It may also help design better financial advice, tailoring guidance to how people naturally process risk and reward. 28. What does the “peanuts effect” refer to? A. Reliance on past experience. B. Shifts in risk attitude with reward size. C. Mistakes in human reasoning. D. Limitations in economic decisions. 29. What does the first assumption suggest? A. Small rewards get less popularity. B. Large rewards affect judgment. C. Effort rises with reward value. D. Small choices need exact judgment. 30. What does the underlined word “anomalies” in paragraph 5 most probably mean? A. Unusual cases. B. Common habits. C. Careful plans. D. Mental resources. 31. What might the research be applied to? A. Developing cognitive training. B. Avoiding daily life risks. C. Increasing reward values. D. Offering personalized financial tips. D Earth’s mesosphere, a layer of the atmosphere far above airplane routes and weather systems, is facing a growing but little-known pollution problem: the burn-up of satellites during re-entry. More than 15,000 satellites are already circling Earth, and experts estimate that another 70,000 may be launched by 2030. Since most satellites have limited lifetimes, many will eventually fall back through the atmosphere and burn up. Scientists warn that this process releases aluminum oxide, soot (煤烟), and other reactive substances into high altitudes where their effects are still not fully understood. Aluminum is a major material in satellites, making up about 40 percent of a typical one. When a satellite burns, much of this aluminum turns into alumina (氧化铝), a substance that may weaken the ozone layer, which protects life on Earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation. Another concern is soot. Although far less soot reaches the mesosphere than lower levels of the atmosphere, it can remain there for years, absorb sunlight, and trap heat. A 2022 study suggested that soot at such heights may have a warming effect hundreds of times stronger than soot released by cars near the ground. What worries researchers even more is the speed of change. Before 2020, emissions of metals and soot from satellite re-entries were rising at about 6 percent a year. After 2020, the rate increased sharply as more satellites were launched. A 2025 simulation (模拟推演) suggested that a future system of over 60,000 short-lifetime satellites could warm the mesosphere (中间层) by 1.5°C and weaken polar winds. Such changes might influence atmospheric circulation in ways scientists do not yet fully understand. Researchers are now exploring possible ways to ease the danger. Some scientists are testing whether different re-entry paths could reduce harmful emissions, though such methods may create other chemicals. At the same time, engineers are developing atmosphere-breathing satellites and studying in-orbit refueling so that spacecraft can stay in use longer and avoid unnecessary re-entries. Even so, experts stress that more research is urgently needed before the problem grows beyond control. 32. Why is alumina from satellite burn-ups a major concern? A. It releases harmful radiation. B. It blocks sunlight and traps heat. C. It affects global weather systems. D. It damages Earth’s protective shield. 33. What may happen if the problem is left unchecked? A. Worse effects from upper-air soot. B. A break in the natural temperature balance. C. A warmer mesosphere and weakened winds. D. A continuous rise in space device launches. 34. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Potential approaches to the issue. B. Research on new re-entry paths. C. Hidden worries of sky projects. D. New progress in craft refueling. 35. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Solutions to High Air Pollution B. Falling Satellites: A Threat to Mesosphere C. The Uncertain Future of Satellite Technology D. Mesosphere: Affected by Man-made Flying Units 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。 The World Health Organization predicts that by 2050, half of the global population may have myopia (近视). This sharp rise has led scientists to study its causes and prevention more closely. ● 36 Myopia often begins in childhood, when the eyeball grows too long from front to back. Then light cannot focus correctly on the retina, so distant objects appear blurry. Researchers believe normal eye growth depends on a balance between biology and environment. When that balance is disturbed, myopia may develop. ●Why outdoor time may matter more Researchers now point to one major factor: children are spending less time outdoors. 37 . A 2017 study in JAMA Ophthalmology found that children with more sunlight exposure were less likely to become myopic. ●Why screens are still a concern This does not mean digital devices are harmless. Long periods of reading, scrolling (刷屏), or gaming keep the eyes focused on nearby objects. 38 . So while screens may not be the only cause, they can still speed up myopia. ●More than a vision problem Myopia is often seen as a simple eyesight issue that glasses can correct. 39 . Serious myopia may also raise the risk of other eye diseases later in life. ●Small changes, real help Good lighting, less screen glare, and regular breaks during close work can all help protect the eyes. Eye specialists also recommend the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. 40 . A. How myopia forms B. When myopia starts C. Therefore, sunlight matters more D. It’s never too early to protect eye health E. Studies have linked close work to higher myopia risk F. Outdoor activities may help because they reduces screen time G. They can improve vision but do not remove later health risks 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） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 David had lost his father when he was a baby.

At first, I only used it to check difficult words and grammar points. But before long, I began asking it for more. It could summarize passages, organize writing ideas, and even offer model sentences far better than mine. I loved the feeling. While my classmates were still working through their notes, I could finish homework faster and more neatly. My English compositions became longer and more polished. Even my weekly reflection, which used to take me a long time, could now be done in just a few minutes. I told myself I was simply using technology wisely. One Friday afternoon, our English teacher, Ms. Miller, announced an in-class writing task for the following Monday. “No phones, no devices, and no reference materials,” she said. “Just your own mind, your own language, and your own story.” The classroom filled with nervous laughter, but I didn’t laugh. Instead, my fingers tightened around my pen. That weekend, I opened the app as usual and typed in the topic Ms. Miller had mentioned: “A moment that changed how I saw myself.” In seconds, the app gave me clear structures, topic sentences, and touching expressions. I copied some into my notebook, hoping they would stay in my mind. But when I turned off the screen and tried to write on my own, my mind suddenly felt empty. Still, I comforted myself by thinking I was just tired. But Monday came sooner than expected. When Ms. Miller handed out the writing paper, my heart sank. The topic had changed. Instead, it read: “Describe a time when you had to solve a problem on your own.” I stared at it, my mouth dry. Around me, pens began to move quickly across paper. Mine did not. Then Ms. Miller walked slowly past my desk and stopped. 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 looked at my almost blank paper, and our eyes met for a second. After I got home that evening, I opened the app again and stared at the screen. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026届高三毕业生第二次模拟考试 英语参考答案 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 1~5CBACA 6~10BABCB 11~15BCABA 16~20CACBA 第二部分 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） 21~25ABDCB 26~30ACBCA 31~35DDCAB 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 36~40ACEGD 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） 41~45DBCAB 46~50DABCA 51~55CBDCA 第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 56. with 57.

Don’t hesitate to come and join us. Yours, Li Hua 第二节（满分25分） 【参考范文】 She looked at my almost blank paper, and our eyes met for a second. A wave of panic welled up in my heart and left me breathless. Her calm gaze moved from the page to my face, and I quickly lowered my head, too ashamed to meet her eyes again. Holding my pen tightly, I forced myself to think and scratched down a few broken sentences. Yet the harder I struggled, the emptier my mind became, as if every polished expression I had borrowed had slipped out of reach. When the bell finally rang, I was still staring at an unfinished composition, frozen in frustration and regret. After I got home that evening, I opened the app again and stared at the screen. No sooner had I typed in the topic than I deleted every word and pushed the phone away. For a long time, I sat there in silence, haunted by the blank paper in class and the painful truth that what I had mistaken for progress was only dependence in disguise. Having faced my weakness at last, I felt deeply ashamed, realizing that borrowed language could polish a composition, but it could never build a mind of my own. This experience taught me that technology should guide learning, not replace independent thinking. 听力原文 Text 1 M: Excuse me. Is this dictionary available? I need one for class.
