To preserve it, UNESCO safeguards hundreds of natural and cultural World Heritage sites around the world. Here are 4 World Heritage sites: Historic Centre of Rome Founded, according to legend, by Romulus and Remus in 753 BC, Rome was first the centre of the Roman Republic, then of the Roman Empire, and it became the capital of the Christian world in the 4th century. Ancient City of Damascus Founded in 3000 BC, Damascus is one of the oldest cities in the Middle East. In the Middle Ages, it was the centre of a splendid craft industry, specializing in swords. The city has some 125 monuments from different periods of its history. Old Havana Havana was founded in 1519 by the Spanish. By the 17th century, it had become one of the Caribbean’s main centres for ship-building. Although it is today a modern city, its old centre remains an interesting mix of Baroque and neoclassical (新古典主义的) monuments. Ancient City of Pingyao Pingyao, founded in the 14th century, shows the evolution of architectural styles and town planning in Imperial China over five centuries. Of special interest are the splendid buildings associated with banking, for which Pingyao was the major centre for the whole of China in the 19th and early 20th centuries. 21. Which of the following was last founded? A. Rome. B. Havana. C Pingyao. D. Damascus. 22. What can we learn from the text? A. Rome was founded by the Spanish . B. Havana became a modern city in the 16th century. C.Damascus was well-known for its craft industry . D.Pingyao was once the major centre for ships in China. 23. In which section of a magazine can we read the text? A. Culture. B. Nature. C. Education. D. Environment. B The first fortnight was tough - terrible pain and the rapid realization that running 200 marathons in 200 days would not be a walk in the park. But Steve James, a 65-year-old retired banker, has found his feet and reached the halfway mark — an average of 100 marathons in 100 days. “In those first two weeks I was thinking: ‘What have I done?’” James said. “I had horrible blisters (水泡) for the first 10 days. The gout (痛风) struck all of a sudden, but I took some medicine and it went away. Now I feel fine.” James’s progress along the coastlines of Great Britain is being tracked by experts from the University of Exeter, who are keen to find out the effects of such an extreme challenge on an older person. The challenge is to do, on average, a marathon every day. Some days, it might be a bit less; others a bit more. There is no set route. James has a plan but adapts and changes it. As for fuel, he is not following the sort of diet an exceptional athlete might adopt. He has cereal, bacon, cake and fish and chips for dinner, washed down with a couple of beers. “It’s all about routine, about getting up and leaving at the same time,” said James. “I love the physical challenge. I’m not especially talented at things, but I can keep going.” The Exeter researchers assessed James before his departure and he sends data daily for them to analyze. They are studying his calorie intake, oxygen levels and muscle measurements. He has lost about 10kg but the team has seen no ill-effects to his health. James, who is raising money for Cancer Research UK, passes the time by listening to music and is also learning Welsh. By the time he gets to Wales, he hopes to be able to order a beer in the language. He thinks the most difficult stretch physically will be the north coasts of Devon and Cornwall. “I’m kind of hoping that by then my body will be completely conditioned and I’ll be able to cope with that.” 24. What does paragraph 2 focus on? A. James’s solution to challenges. B.The difficulties James faced. C. James’s attitude to the running. D. The treatment James received. 25. What can be learned about James’s running plan? A. It features a strict diet. B. It is made by researchers. C. It changes based on circumstances. D. It is confirmed by other athletes. 26. What is James’s expectation for the journey ahead? A. To run all over Wales. B. To be physically adapted. C. To grow thinner and healthier. D. To raise money for cancer patients. 27. What message does the passage convey? A. Exercise shapes one’s character. B. Health begins where the feet move. C.Optimism unlocks human potential. D. Limits can be redefined at any age . C The Underdog Effect is a phenomenon where people are more likely to support those who are regarded as disadvantaged or less likely to succeed. This doesn’t just happen in sports or competitions; it’s a deep-seated response that influences our behavior in many areas of life. At its core, the Underdog Effect is about rooting for those who are clearly at a huge disadvantage. Think of the classic tale of David and Goliath, where a young shepherd (牧羊人) defeats a giant warrior (武士) with nothing but simple weapons like a stone. This story has lasted for centuries, not just because of its dramatic narrative (叙事), but because it connects with something everyone feels: wanting the weak to defeat the strong. This effect is not limited to ancient tales. In modern times, we see it in movies, literature, and everyday life. Characters like Rocky Balboa, Harry Potter, and even companies like Apple in its early days, inspire us because they show the underdog spirit. We’re drawn to these stories because they reflect a struggle against hardship, and that struggle is something we can all relate to on some level. In a broader cultural context, the love for underdogs can be seen across different societies and eras. Whether it’s a small nation fighting for independence, a startup challenging a corporate giant, or an individual standing up against systemic injustice, the narrative of the underdog is universally engaging. It’s a proof to the human spirit’s resilience and the belief that, with enough determination, anyone can succeed despite the odds. While the Underdog Effect can inspire and unite us, it also has its downsides. Our support for the underdog, while often well-intentioned, can sometimes lead to unintended consequences and unrealistic expectations. Despite its potential limitations, the Underdog Effect can be a powerful tool when used thoughtfully and ethically. Whether you’re looking to motivate yourself, build a brand, or connect with others, understanding how to use this effect can help you achieve your goals while staying true to your values. 28. What can we learn about the Underdog Effect from the first paragraph? A. It mainly occurs in sports. B. It makes people support the strong. C. It is a newly discovered social phenomenon. D. It affects people’s behavior in various fields. 29. Why does the David and Goliath story last long? A. It has an exciting plot. B. It connects people’s feelings. C. It tells a shepherd’s life. D. It shows the power of weapons. 30. What does the underlined word “resilience” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Desires. B. Width. C. Toughness. D. Fairnes. 31. What is the author’s overall view towards the Underdog Effect? A. It is an outdated and useless concept. B. It is a simple trick used in advertising. C. It is completely harmless and beneficial. D. It has both positive and negative aspects. D Under the autumn sky of Tuohula Xinjiang, golden rice stalks sway gently. Ayinigeer Tuoheti, a 28-year-old computer science graduate, wanders through the fields, checking the ripening crop. Her digital skills are bridging the divide between her family’s traditional rice business and the modern age. In 2020, Ayinigeer returned home to assist her father — who’d built a 1994 rice processing plant but his health weakened and struggled with business communications. She found the family’s work stuck in the backward reality: the ledger book, handwritten records, and carbon paper. She resolved to transform the business. First, she turned their small farmer cooperative into a company. Exploiting her computer background, she automated invoicing, inventory, and order processing, shifting all work to electronic systems. To secure high-quality rice, she partnered with over 120 households, who transferred the management rights of their land to her company. Her company provided seeds and training, bought harvests above market prices, and shared profits-boosting farmers’ incomes while ensuring premium raw materials. In 2023, she tried livestreaming on electronic sales platform. With a smartphone, she presented viewers with local rice fields, processing plants, and family meals with their local products. The initial phase was tough, but local governments trained her in livestreaming skills. Their authenticity won audience: daily orders grew from 12 to hundreds. Now, From March to September this year, they had 180,000 orders through livestreaming, with 7,000 on a single day-that’s nearly 35 tons of rice moving directly from their fields to households across China. The numbers tell the resulting. In early 2024, influencers from across China were reaching out to us, she said. “They wanted to partner with us because our product had proven appealing.” The phenomenal success of Ayinigeer’s livestreaming, however, stems not just from technology, but Tuohula’s rice quality: Wensu’s temperature swings, selenium-rich soil, and Tianshan snow melt water make it sweet and aromatic. Local farming is 98% mechanized, and a 1998 seed base (investing 1 million yuan yearly) develops high-quality varieties-including the seeds Ayinigeer uses. 32. What did Ayinigeer do first to improve the family business? A.She inspected crops personally. B.She started livestreaming on Douyin. C. She modernized the operation system. D. She partnered with over 120 local households. 33. Why could Ayinigeer’s sales model attract viewers? A. She offered very low rice prices. B.She presented authentic rice production scenes. C. She used professional broadcasting equipment . D. She accumulated many followers before livestreaming. 34. What can we infer about Tuohula’s rice? A. It is popular all over the world. B. It is only sold in southern Xinjiang . C.Its production cost is much lower than average. D.Local natural conditions contributed to its popularity . 35. Which is the most appropriate title? A.Quality Rice Boosts Agriculture. B.Digital Skills Revive Hometown Rice. C. Graduate Succeeds in Rice Business. D. Livestreaming Makes Rice Famous. 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 teens have chatted with AI chatbots, which can be helpful. However, this technology isn’t designed for youngsters, and problems can arise if no proper guidance is provided. 36 Value your own voice. 37 You should feel proud to make your unique voice heard. A chatbot may act like a person but it doesn’t have feelings or lived experience. Yet those are important things that make us human. You should ask yourself whether you really want help from something that can’t actually know your feelings. 38 Robots can’t understand you and your problems the way a real friend or doctor can. When you need help, feel confident to seek out real people. “You should get real answers from people that actually know you,” says Linda Charmaraman, who directs the Youth, Media & Wellbeing research lab at Wellesley College. Avoid empty praise. A true friend will call you out when you do something wrong, which helps you learn and grow. But chatbots love to shower praise. They’ll agree with almost anything you say. 39 However, if you rely on chatbots for help in social situations, you may fail to learn it when you’ve made a mistake. Beware of made-up facts. Honest people say “I don’t know” when they are unsure, but AI rarely does so. 40 These false responses can cause trouble. Remember: something sounding smart doesn’t mean it’s true. If you use bot-generated content, you’re responsible for it. A. Consult real people for tips. B. Assess solutions from chatbots. C. Here are key tips for talking to AI chatbots. D. You have experiences, ideas and feelings that matter . E. But it is necessary to learn how to use AI chatbots. F. Bots tend to confidently answer every question . G. This tendency is helpful if you need a confidence boost. 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。 Being an ambivert (中向性格者), I live in a constant push-and-pull between social enjoyment and the need for solitude (独处). Starting conversations feels like solving a puzzle with missing pieces. My mind becomes a crowded stage where doubts 41 : “Am I talking too much? Or too little?” This inner noise often left me trapped on the shores of small talk, 42 admiring those who socialize with ease. Then, I set a simple yet brave goal: to offer one 43 praise to a stranger each day. Praising someone is a great icebreaker when you don’t know what else to say, which 44 lifts my spirits. If I noticed someone wearing something great, I’d say it was cute and ask for details. Whether to a cashier or a passer-by, I practiced turning silent 45 into spoken warmth. To my surprise, these little words acted as keys — 46 not just smiles, but moments of true 47 . I realized I had been 48 alone behind walls I built myself. Over time, this practice 49 into something deeper. Like sunlight 50 through clouds, a kind word can 51 a whole day — both for the giver and the receiver. I remembered messages from readers across the world, years after my book was published, telling me how my words 52 them. It taught me that even the smallest act of kindness can have such a strong 53 far beyond what we can see. Stepping out of my comfort zone didn’t just build 54 — it planted gardens in unexpected places. Sometimes, the 55 connection can be the one that lights your path forward. 41. A. disappear B. gather C. claim D. whisper 42. A. sadly B. secretly C. delightedly D. proudly 43. A. public B. direct C. random D. genuine 44. A. above all B. on purpose C. in turn D. at least 45. A. curiosity B. judgment C. concern D. appreciation 46. A. revealing B. unlocking C. forcing D. spreading 47. A. bond B. understanding C. friendship D. company 48. A. leaning B. hiding C. living D. feeling 49. A. grew B. Stepped C. looked D. ran 50. A. reflecting B. burning C. breaking D. covering 51. A. brighten B. lighten C. strengthen D. broaden 52. A. shocked B. inspired C. confused D. entertained 53. A. passion B. faith C. desire D. influence 54. A. belief B. knowledge C. experience D. confidence 55 .A. briefest B. quietest C. deepest D. closest 第二节(共10小题；每小题1.5分 ，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Inside the Palace Museum, time seems never far away. It is frozen on each antique tile (瓦片), flows beneath every shadowed wall, and exists in the lives of ordinary people who are 56 (close) connected with this place. Today, more young people are telling the stories of the Palace Museum through innovative means. With fresh perspectives 57 modern languages, they bring new life 58 this centuries-old site. The Palace is open, inclusive, and alive — a space 59 ancient civilization continues and grows through openness and changes. Over time, its unique magnificence 60 (soften) into everyday warmth. People can stop, touch, and feel its presence, engaging with history in 61 (create) ways and expressing their love through photos, videos, and art. They record reality while preserving memories, 62 (allow) the stories of the Palace to reach more people and live on into the future. Why do we need the Palace Museum? The answer may lie in the small but steady 63 (effort) of ordinary people. Their 64 (participate) keeps the Palace alive, giving it fresh stories and enduring meaning 65 (develop). Together, we continue the journey of passing on culture and understanding our past — so that we can better find our way forward. 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 假定你是李华，你的英国朋友Chris计划拍摄Taste of China短视频系列推介中国美食，他想从“Famous Dishes”和“Street Snacks”两个拍摄主题中选择其一，现征求你的意见。请给Chris写一封邮件表达你的看法，内容包括： 1. 你的选择；2. 说明理由。 注意： 1. 写作词数应为80个左右；2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Dear Chris, I’m thrilled about your Taste of China series! ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 第二节（满分25分） 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 It was early autumn when the school organized a weekend camping trip to a nearby mountain forest. The air was crisp, the leaves were turning golden, and the students were buzzing with excitement. After weeks of studying and exams, everyone welcomed the chance to enjoy nature and relax outdoors. Among the students were four close friends: Leo, Eric, Jason, and Alice. Though their personalities were quite different, they made a great team. Alice, the only girl in the group, was smart and well-prepared. She had brought along a compass, a map, and even a first-aid kit. After arriving at the campsite, the students pitched their tents, gathered firewood, and helped prepare a simple meal. The campsite was surrounded by tall pine trees, and in the distance, a mountain stream could be heard. The teachers reminded everyone to stay within the marked area and never go off-trail alone. After lunch, the students were allowed to explore in small groups. Leo’s group decided to follow a trail leading up a hill. According to Alice, there was a small lookout point that offered a beautiful view of the valley. As they walked, Jason kept running ahead, calling the others to hurry. “Let’s see what’s up there!” he shouted. Alice followed closely behind, holding the map. Leo walked at a steady pace, checking that no one fell behind. Eric lagged at the end, clearly nervous about being so deep in the forest. The path became narrower as they climbed. Birds chirped in the trees, and dry leaves crunched under their shoes. The sunlight filtered through the branches above, casting dancing shadows on the ground. After about an hour, they reached the edge of a rocky area covered in leaves. The trail began to twist more than expected, and many landmarks they passed didn’t match what was on the map. “I think the viewpoint is just beyond this slope (斜坡),” Jason said, pointing excitedly. Leo looked uncertain. “Let’s be careful. It looks slippery.” But before anyone could stop him, Jason had already climbed ahead. 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Just as he reached the top of the slope, his foot slipped. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With the first aid finished, they realized a new challenge: how to get back. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第7页 共8页 第8页 共8页 ( 高二（下）半期考试 英语试卷 第 4 页 共 4 页 ) 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
