Among them was a select group of “code talkers” who used a secure communications system relying on Diné Bizaad, the official language of the Navajo Nation, to send secret messages. The code, never broken by enemy forces, played a decisive role in key victories during the war and, ultimately, helped save thousands of lives. Today, only two of the “code talkers” are still alive: Thomas Begay, now around 101 years old, and Peter MacDonald, 97. As the 80th anniversary of WWII’s end nears, they shared with National Geographic about the secret operation that changed military history forever. “During World War I, the US military used similar strategies to confuse German forces, relying primarily on Choctaw, Cherokee, Ho-Chunk, Comanche, and Osage speakers,” said Begay. “Largely unwritten and with few published reference sources, these native languages were nearly impossible for enemies to figure out what was being said.” The strategy proved so effective during WWI that military researchers and linguists began studying other native languages to prepare for future conflicts. What they discovered was that Diné Bizaad was exceptionally difficult to decode without deep cultural knowledge. “Because of the unfamiliarity of the culture, the enemy was even unable to correctly break the words into syllables”, explained Peter MacDonald. “Computers could not have cracked the code. All computers could have done was detect patterns.” The code talkers program remained secret until 1968, when the US government finally declassified it as part of a broader effort to acknowledge the contributions of minority groups during the war and to allow the “code talkers” to share their stories for the first time. Ronald Begay, a retired US Army officer, recalled what his father told the family in 2002 when they were watching the newly released movie, Windtalkers, “‘I was one of them,’ he simply said.” 24. What can we know about Diné Bizaad? A. It is just widely used in the Navajo Nation. B. The enemy figured it out during the war. C. It is the earliest secret code in military history. D. Only two persons can speak it in the US. 25. What is the key to understanding the Diné Bizaad code talkers’ message? A. Military terms. B. Individual sounds. C. Sound patterns. D. Cultural knowledge. 26. How did Thomas Begay feel when he was talking to his family? A. Surprised. B. Worried. C. Calm. D. Angry. 27. Where is the text adapted from? A. Movie reviews. B. Formal interviews. C. Military reports. D. Classified documents. C Video games can spend hours intensely focused on leveling up — progressing to the next level of skill and challenge — in a virtual world, while their everyday troubles fade into the background. Called “flow”, this profoundly immersive state is familiar to artists, musicians and athletes, and has become a popular topic in the media. But video game scholar Braxton Soderman urges caution. In his new book, Against Flow: Video Games and the Flowing Subject, Soderman aims to “create a little turbulence (湍流) in the smooth flow.” Among his criticisms of flow in relation to video gaming is that it can be used to manipulate (操纵) players for profit and socially isolate them. “Developers of video games and apps design their technologies specifically in order to produce these intense states of concentration, to addict people to these kinds of experiences,” says Soderman. Money, of course, is the driving force behind most game design, not happiness. Soderman has played video games almost his entire life, but as the father of two young children, he’s careful to limit the types of games and amount of time his kids spend on video games. As with flow, Soderman worries that the concepts of play are already being manipulated by capitalism. Business owners, he says, are being encouraged to use play and creativity to establish “playgrounds of profit” instead of creating more open, inclusive environments that actually make people happier. “Play is an activity that is really about creativity, exploring possibilities, and freedom,” he says. “But it can be hijacked (操纵) and used in a wrong way.” The concept of play, like flow, is one that Soderman will challenge us all to step back and think about critically. Because, as he shows in Against Flow, getting lost in a video game for a while can be fun, as long as you don’t end up swept away in a lonely current of someone else’s profit. 28. What’s a key sign of video games being in a “flow” state? A. Profound interest in arts and music. B. Increased focus on everyday troubles. C. Persistent engagement in online chatting. D. Intense concentration on game progression. 29. What is the ultimate purpose of most game design? A. To foster genuine happiness. B. To enhance social interactions. C. To build up concentration skills. D. To profit from player involvement. 30. According to Soderman, what is a concern about “play”? A. It’s subject to capitalist influence. B. It blocks creativity and possibilities. C. It’s unfavorable for game development. D. It promotes addiction to virtual socializing. 31. What is the text most likely to be? A. A review of recent video game research. B. A report about game development practices. C. An introduction to a newly published book. D. An essay on the concepts of “flow” and “play”. D A new study suggests that crop insurance serves as a disincentive (抑制因素) for farmers to adopt climate change relief measures on their croplands. The study by researchers at North Carolina State University examined the interactions of warmer temperatures, crop yield risk and crop insurance participation by farmers. For the study, researchers developed models using historical county-level corn and soybean yield data in the United States, with an eye toward understanding the production impacts of rising temperatures. The researchers found that variation in crop yield due to higher temperatures rose when more farmers had crop insurance. Interestingly, the results showed greater variability (可变性) effects for corn yields than for soybean yields. “This could be an unintended consequence of the government’s providing subsidies for crop insurance, which costs a large sum of money,” said Rod M. Rejesus, professor of agricultural and resource economics at NC State and the author of the research study. “The concept of moral crisis could be present here. If insurance will cover crop losses due to various effects like drought or severe weather, a farmer may not want to pay the extra expense for climate change adaptation efforts such as using cover crops to improve soil health, for example.” The study models indicate that an increase of daily minimum and maximum temperatures of 1degree Celsius would increase county-level corn yield variability by 8.6 bushels (1 bushel equals to 35.24 L) per acre if 80% of farmers in a county have crop insurance. The same temperature rise in a county with 10% crop insurance participation would increase corn yield variability by just 6.2 bushels per acre. The researchers bring up possible solutions to this situation for policymakers. They include providing more subsidies to encourage farmers’ use of climate change relief efforts — like soil health practices — and starting high-level policy conversations about how to possibly adjust rules and guidelines that govern crop insurance contracts in order to reduce the disincentive effects. 32. What does the study find about crop insurance? A. It ensures crop production. B. It leads to unexpected side effects. C. It results in worse climate change. D. It doesn’t bring any benefits to farmers. 33. What does the underlined word “subsidies” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Market support. B. Verbal support. C. Technical assistance. D. Financial aid. 34. What might explain the unintended consequence of crop insurance? A. Moral crisis. B. Law issue. C. Study models. D. Custom change. 35. How did the author show the effects of crop insurance on corn yield variability? A. By doing experiments. B. By making a comparison. C. By listing figures. D. By consulting experts. 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 you spend time with close friends, how do you feel? You may feel like you belong. According to the Oxford dictionary, belonging is defined as a “deep sense of acceptance, inclusion, and identification within a group, place, or context.” 36 Since the beginning of human evolution, people have connected with others in order to survive. This desire to form and grow relationships is rooted in the human brain. 37 In 1943, Abraham Maslow was the first psychologist to write about belonging as a human need. His theory, the Hierarchy of Needs, states that humans must acquire their basic needs, such as physiological needs and needs related to safety, before they can begin fulfilling other higher, more complex needs, like belonging or developing self-esteem. Another groundbreaking research about belonging emerged in 1995. Mark Leary and Roy Baumeister found that humans have a universal drive to belong, which motivates their thoughts and actions. In fact, this drive is so important that they argued it was a fundamental human need — not a secondary need in a hierarchy. Their later research explored the connection between self-esteem and belonging. According to their research, self-esteem is not just about how people feel about themselves internally. 38 Although feeling connected to people is important in many settings, it becomes especially critical in schools. A 2020 research analysis found that students who do not feel a sense of belonging at school are often searching for threats in their environment that signal whether they are welcome or not. 39 This, in turn, can cause poorer academic performance. It can also discourage students from forming deeper relationships. So, a student’s feeling of belonging is vital for their learning. 40 Researchers will continue to analyze how personality, culture, and even social media shape how connected we feel to others. With this knowledge, people can create schools and communities where more people feel included. That way, we can develop a society that is overall healthier, happier, and more connected. A. They may do things to increase their self-esteem. B. This stress can use up cognitive resources needed for learning. C. Belonging is a complex thing because it is influenced by many factors. D. Over the years, researchers have been exploring this subjective feeling. E. Feeling like you belong can actually improve many aspects of your life. F. It actually serves as a warning signal that measures how much people feel accepted. G. When you see yourself well suited to a specific environment, you feel valued and respected. 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、D四个选项中选出可以填入空内处的最佳选项。 Every year I’d read over 2,000 college applications from students all over the world.

Letters of recommendation are typically written by people like former presidents, celebrities, and Olympic athletes. The security guard wrote that he supported this student’s admission because of his 48 . This young man was the only person in the school who knew the names of every member of the guard staff. He turned off lights in empty rooms, consistently 49 the hallway monitor each morning and tidied up the classroom after his peers left school 50 nobody was watching. This student, the security guard wrote, had a(n) 51 respect for every person at the school, regardless of position, popularity or power. It gave us a 52 onto a student’s life in the moments when nothing “counted”. That student was admitted by unanimous (一致的) vote of the admissions committee. Next year there might be a flood of security guard recommendations 53 this essay. But if it means students will start paying as much 54 to the people who clean their classrooms as they do to their principals and teachers, I’m happy to help start that 55 . 41.

Go see what he is up to,” she replied. Nita approached her father, who was tending to a small fire in the yard. As she drew closer, she noticed a bunch of plastic bags burning. Confusion mixed with worry filled her young mind. She couldn’t help but question her father’s action. “Why are you burning those plastic bags, Dad?” she asked, her voice full of concern. “These bags would last an incredibly long time if we buried them. Plastic doesn’t break down in the earth. Burning is the only way to remove them, Nita,” he replied. Nita’s forehead wrinkled. She felt a wave of sadness for the earth and couldn’t help but voice her discontent. “But burning isn’t good for the earth either, Dad. And the smoke ... it smells terrible,” she complained softly. Her father let out a heavy sigh, understanding her concern. He knelt down to her level and spoke with a touch of regret in his voice, “I know, Nita, but I haven’t found another way to keep these bags from polluting the earth.” That afternoon, as Nita’s mother returned from the market with more plastic bags, Nita felt a growing sense of unease. The cycle of using and burning plastic bags seemed endless, and she longed for a solution. Later that day, Nita found herself watching her father work on cutting shirts for his clothing business. Her mind wandered, thinking about the problem at hand. Suddenly, an idea occurred to her. “Maybe I can create something useful with the leftover fabric scraps (碎布)!” she thought excitedly. Determined to make a difference, Nita borrowed her father’s scissors, thread (线), and a needle. Her father, concerned for her safety, tried to stop her. However, her determination shone through, and he soon found himself assisting her in making a beautiful bag. （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。 Days later, Nita accompanied her mother to the market with the newly-made cloth bag. __________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Word of Nita’s bags spread rapidly throughout the village. _________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025—2026（下）期中考试高二年级英语试卷 答案 1.

It not only allows us to express ourselves better but also gives pleasure to the readers. What’s more, good handwriting contributes to higher scores in the exams. There are two tips to improve our handwriting. For one thing, we can write Chinese characters well by practising brush calligraphy, which is a traditional and elegant art. It is known that many famous artists in Chinese history have left outstanding calligraphy works. For another thing, we can also follow copybooks in our spare time to improve our English handwriting. Don’t forget to ask our teachers for guidance when necessary. As an old saying goes, “practice makes perfect.” With effort, we’ll definitely improve our handwriting. 67. Days later, Nita accompanied her mother to the market with the newly-made cloth bag. People in the market were immediately drawn to the unique and beautiful bag. They asked Nita’s mother where she got it. Nita proudly stepped forward and told them that she had made it herself out of fabric scraps to avoid using plastic bags. Many were impressed and started to think about their own use of plastic. Some even asked Nita if she could make one for them. Word of Nita’s bags spread rapidly throughout the village. Soon, the local school invited Nita to give a talk about her idea and the process of making the bags. Nita showed the students how to turn simple fabric scraps into useful and stylish bags. The children were excited and eager to try it themselves. Inspired by Nita, several families in the village started collecting fabric scraps and making their own cloth bags. The village shopkeepers also noticed the trend and began to offer small incentives to customers who brought their own cloth bags. Nita’s simple act had started a wave of change in the village, reducing the use of plastic bags and making everyone more aware of the importance of environmental protection. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
