甘肃省陇南市宕昌第一中学等校2025-2026学年高一下学期5月期中英语试题

参考答案 1．答案：C 解析：考查细节理解，Legacy Grant要求项目必须有一名教师顾问提供支持，以证明其学术或机构意义，即需要专业推荐。 2．答案：D 解析：考查细节理解，“可扩展性”评估标准的核心是项目是否有潜力推广到其他校园或机构，即更广泛的应用前景。 3．答案：A 解析：考查推理判断，纯理论且无校园实际应用的项目不予考虑，因此一篇关于全球变暖历史的学生论文会被直接拒绝。 4．答案：B 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“His parents both had demanding jobs, so Kaysen took on dinner duty to take one thing off their plates, tapping into what he learned from his grandma and bringing his family around the dinner table at the end of a long day. (凯森的父母工作都十分繁重，于是他主动承担起做晚饭的任务，为父母减轻一份负担。他运用从祖母那里学到的厨艺，让一家人在漫长忙碌的一天结束后，能围坐餐桌共享晚餐。)”可知，父母工作忙碌繁重，是他开始为家人做饭的原因。 5．答案：A 解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“But at that moment, it clicked that cooking can be the basis of connection.(但就在那一刻，他突然明白，烹饪可以成为人与人之间情感联结的纽带。)”可知，那个寒冷冬日，他意识到烹饪能够凝聚人心、拉近彼此距离。 6．答案：C 解析：词句猜测题。根据最后一段中的“I carry on my grandma’s memory through her recipes,” Kaysen said. “Everything I learn is on the shoulders of someone who came before me, and this is a way I can honor that.(我通过祖母的食谱延续对她的回忆。我所学的一切都得益于前人的积累，而这是一种向那致敬的方式。)”可知，前文指出作者依靠传承食谱留住祖母的回忆，本句用that指代上文重复出现的核心名词grandma’s memory。 7．答案：D 解析：推理判断题。通读全文，文章围绕凯森的个人成长、祖母对他的影响、烹饪经历与人生感悟展开，讲述个人生平相关经历与思想，结合文体特征可知，本文属于人物传记类文章。 8．答案：B 解析：考查细节理解，作者提到近十年来几乎每周都会因为科技产品的使用与孩子产生分歧，这也是全国许多家庭的共同经历。 9．答案：D 解析：考查细节理解，“屏幕时间计算器”用于计算人们每天花在科技产品上的时间，并直观展示其年度累计时长。 10．答案：A 解析：考查推理判断，作者通过Jax亲身练习滑板与Alex被动观看视频的对比，意在说明真实的亲身经历远比被动观看重要。 11．答案：C 解析：考查推理判断，这本书既有实用的工具（如屏幕时间计算器），又能引导年轻人批判性思考科技产品的影响，因此兼具实用性和教育性。 12．答案：B 解析：推理判断题。根据第一段的Black Friday isn't what it once was（黑色星期五已今非昔比）及第二段的Those people stay, but not in the numbers they used to, thanks to online shopping. But as AI becomes fixed in people's habits, it could have an increasingly large role in Black Friday （这些人还是会购物，但数量已不如从前。这要归功于网络购物。但随着AI逐渐融入人们的购物习惯中，它在“黑色星期五“期间的作用可能会愈发重要）可知，前两段告诉我们黑色星期五的购物方式受到互联网尤其是AI发展的影响。 13．答案：A 解析：推理判断题。根据第三段的Some 33% of the people in a 2025 survey said they plan to use Al as part of their holiday shopping double the number who did last year. Many say the tech could help them with gift ideas and product discovery （在 2025年的一项调查中，33%的人表示他们计划将人工智能作为节日购物的一部分，这一比例是去年的两倍。许多人表示，这项技术可以帮助他们找到礼物灵感和发现产品信息） A separate study from another marketing platform（平台）found that 56% of buyers say they' ll use AI tools among Black Friday.（另一家营销平台的一项独立研究发现， 56%的购物者会在黑色星期五使用人工智能工具） 可推知，作者描述在购物过程中使用AI这一日益流行的趋势时使用了列数字的方法。 14．答案：C 解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段的However, always check the results on the store's website yourself, as prices can change quickly (但请务必亲自在商店的网站上核实结果，因为价格可能会迅速变化）可推知，作者建议人们要将不稳定的物价因素考虑在内。 15．答案：B 解析：标题判断题。通读全文，特别是根据第二段的 Those people stay, but not in the numbers they used to, thanks to online shopping. But as Al becomes fixed in people's habits, it could have an increasingly large role in Black Friday（虽然那些人依然会光顾实体店，但人数已远不及从前。这要归功于网络购物。但随着AI逐渐融入人们的购物习惯， 它在黑色星期五中可能会发挥越来越重要的作用） 可知，作者从黑色星期五引入人们的购物模式，但目的是为了引出主题即AI的发展和应用改变了人们的购物方式。由此可知,B.AI: a game-changer for shopping（AI：购物领域的变革者）可以反映本文的主题，适合作本文最佳标题。 16．答案：B；D；A；C；F 解析：①上文“Forest bathing is the practice of immersing yourself in nature in a mindful way.

Impact Grant ($ 501 - $3,000): For projects involving at least two departments, this grant supports collaborative efforts aimed at bringing about tangible changes in campus infrastructure. Examples include energy-saving lighting systems, waste diversion projects, or sustainability-focused renovations. The aim is to have measurable, long-lasting impact on the campus environment. Legacy Grant ($ 3,000+): This grant supports long-term solutions that have the potential to be implemented across all campuses.

A home cook in the truest form, she taught me how to cook,” said Kaysen, who’s based in Minneapolis. “She loved taking care of us, cooking for us and showing me how.” His parents both had demanding jobs, so Kaysen took on dinner duty to take one thing off their plates, tapping into what he learned from his grandma and bringing his family around the dinner table at the end of a long day. One cold winter day decades ago, “Everyone came in from outside to warm up together over this meal,” he recalled. “I had already known that this meal felt like a hug in a bowl. But at that moment, it clicked that cooking can be the basis of connection.” To this day, “I can feel her energy every time I cook and eat that dish.” Kaysen didn’t realize it at the time, but his grandmother was giving him a master class in key techniques that would serve him well in his cooking career. Chicken and dumplings displays how to make chicken stock, how to cut different shapes of vegetables, how to make a roux, and more, Kaysen said. Sure, “there are a lot of similarities between how I cook in all areas of my life. At the end of the day, it’s all about nurturing people. Whether that’s in the kitchen in my house or at restaurants, that’s the goal. The only difference would be my kids are very quick to tell me if they do not like something,” Kaysen said, laughing. As for chicken and dumplings, in Minnesota you can buy a ready-to-bake, single-serving chicken pot pie at Bellecour. It uses almost the same recipe, but instead of having dumplings mixed in, the filling is put inside a pastry crust. And anyone can make this dish at home using the recipe below, which Kaysen is glad to share. “I think it’s extremely important to record and carry on family recipes. We are only as great as those who came before us, and I carry on my grandma’s memory through her recipes,” Kaysen said. “Everything I learn is on the shoulders of someone who came before me, and this is a way I can honor that.” 4．Why did Kaysen start to cook dinner for his family? A. His grandma asked him to do so. B. His parents were too busy with work. C. He wanted to practice cooking skills. D. His family liked his cooking. 5．What did Kaysen realize on that cold winter day? A. Cooking can bring people together. B. Chicken and dumplings are delicious. C. Winter is a good time to have hot meals. D. His grandma’s cooking was the best. 6．What does the underlined word “that” in the last paragraph refer to? A. The family connection. B. The earlier generations C. The grandmother’s memory. D. The cooking skill. 7．What is the text? A. A novel. B. An advertisement. C. A news report. D. A biography. Nowadays, various forms of technology and their applications have transformed our teenagers’ lives and our experiences as parents, most often not for the better. As the parent of a 10-year-old and a 14-year-old, I can say that not a week has gone by in nearly a decade that the use of such technologies hasn’t led to some form of disagreement. And at this point it’s clear that such is the experience of households all over the country. Endless elements of day-to-day life, including especially for young people learning and socialization, have been negatively impacted. That’s why I am drawn to Jonathan Haidt’s work, The Amazing Generation. The first part includes background information on the rise of smartphones and the “attention economy”. It also has many infographics (信息图) and visuals, including one of my favorites, “Screen Time Calculator That You Can Use to Shock People. ” “1 hour per day=15 full days per year. 2 hours per day=1 full month per year. Etc.” This is a page I wouldn’t mind seeing hung on classroom walls, including the college classrooms where I teach. The second part is a fictional story about six young people. In one scene, heavy social media user Alex finally joins his phone-free friend Jax at a skate park. Then, we see Jax trying out different skating skills in the background, by the end falling onto the ground after another heroic attempt, which are in contrast to Alex’s phone screen, which he has been glued to, from a nearby bench, first searching for skating tips then watching world championship skating highlights. The author ends by noting that while it is often thrilling to have the world at your fingertips, it’s hard to deny the losses that accumulate when real life trial-and-error is replaced by passive viewing. That’s what The Amazing Generation can do — get young people thinking more critically about the products that shape their everyday lives. 8．What can we learn about the author’s family from paragraph 1? A. They look down upon each other’s learning ability. B. Arguments constantly occur over the use of technology. C. Disagreement mostly happens between the two children. D. They envy the harmonious relationship in other households. 9．What is Screen Time Calculator about? A. The key to learning math. B. The value of teenagers’ time. C. The art of classroom management. D. The amount of time spent on technology. 10．What does Jonathan Haidt intend to show by using the story of Jax and Alex? A. In-person experience matters a lot. B. Training without guidance leads nowhere. C. Too much screen time does harm to eyesight. D. Champions’ experience is helpful for beginners. 11．Which of the following best describe The Amazing Generation? A. Plain and amusing. B. Boring and hard to understand. C. Practical and educational. D. Imaginative and well-received. Black Friday isn’t what it once was. Less than 15 years ago, it was common for people to wake up at early hours to drive to a store, where they would stand in line, waiting for the doors to open in order to get the best deals. Those people stay, but not in the numbers they used to, thanks to online shopping. But as AI becomes fixed in people’s habits, it could have an increasingly large role in Black Friday. A growing number of buyers will be depending on AI to help them find deals. Some 33% of the people in a 2025 survey said they plan to use AI as part of their holiday shopping double the number who did last year. Many say the tech could help them with gift ideas and product discovery. A separate study from another marketing platform (平台) found that 56% of buyers say they’ll use AI tools among Black Friday. AI can do a lot more than help people think of creative gifts, of course. GenAI can research prices and recommend the best deal, in some cases even buying the products for you. And a growing number of people are taking advantage of that. Traffic from AI platforms to retail (零售) sites in July was up by 4,700%, according to Adobe Analytics. And the company says there will be an increase in AI usage of between 515% and 550% this holiday season, compared to 2024. To use AI for finding deals, first make a clear list or what you want to buy. Be very specific about the product details when asking the chatbot.
