But when the brush was in the teacher’s hand, it turned into Harry Potter’s magic wand (魔杖) ,” said Aryan Mohammd, 27, from Afghanistan. Currently studying as a graduate student at the Central University of Finance and Economies in Beijing, Aryan has lived in China for six years. During this time, he discovered many of China’s great achievements in economics, science and technology, as well as the richness of Chinese culture. He also realized that Chinese is steadily becoming an international language. Attending multiple school activities for international students to better understand Chinese culture. Aryan found his hobby — calligraphy. “When I first came to China, I didn’t know much Chinese and thought calligraphy would be difficult,” Aryan said. “However, later on, I found out that calligraphy can help me improve my Chinese language skills and my understanding of Chinese culture. Calligraphy helps him to both understand each stroke and the Chinese attitude towards life. The horizontal, vertical (垂直的) and left and right falling strokes on the paper represent Chinese people's unique symbols and memories. They are also the hidden keys to better understanding Chinese culture. “I have learned the saying that all forms of Chinese art are some extensions of calligraphy,” Aryan said. He has also developed a more mature personality along the way. He has become calmer when facing difficulties through his new hobby.

His desire to better understand Chinese culture. 5. How does Aryan see the strokes in Chinese calligraphy? A. They relate to people’s hobbies. B. They are complex and difficult to master. C.

The Internationalization of Chinese Calligraphy D. The Increasing Popularity of Chinese Calligraphy C When we think of artificial intelligence (AI), we often picture futuristic robots or self-driving cars. However, a quieter, more significant revolution is happening right in our pockets. Smartphones, once simple devices for calling and texting, have become powerful tools driven by AI. This technology, often working behind the scenes, is changing not only how we communicate but also how we learn, farm, and even access healthcare in local communities. For students in county-level areas, AI-powered apps are breaking down traditional barriers. Imagine a student struggling with physics concepts. Instead of waiting for the next day’s class, they can use an app that provides personalized explanations, adjusts to their learning speed, and offers instant feedback. This is not a scene from a sci-fi movie; it is the reality of adaptive learning. These systems analyze a student’s answers to identify weak points and create a customized study path, making quality education more accessible than ever. Beyond education, AI is making its mark on traditional industries. In agriculture, for instance, local farmers are using smartphone apps that employ AI to diagnose crop diseases. By simply taking a picture of a diseased leaf, the app can instantly identify the problem and suggest effective treatments. This timely intervention can save an entire harvest, directly impacting a family’s livelihood. Of course, this technological shift comes with challenges. Concerns about data privacy and the need for reliable internet connections remain. However, the potential benefits are undeniable. The true power of AI in county-level areas lies not in replacing human effort, but in enhancing it. By handling repetitive tasks and providing intelligent insights, AI is freeing up people to focus on what they do best: creative thinking, problem-solving, and human interaction. The goal is not to create a world run by machines, but to build a smarter, more efficient world where technology serves the unique needs of every community. 8. What does the author emphasize about AI learning apps for rural students? A. They replace traditional teachers completely. B. They provide learning support tailored to individual needs. C. They are still a concept from sci-fi movies. D. They only work for physics subjects. 9. The underlined word “intervention” in paragraph 3 most likely means ______. A. a sudden problem B. a scientific discovery C. a timely action to help D. a kind of smartphone app 10. What is the author’s attitude toward AI as suggested in the last paragraph? A. Concerned about its risks to privacy. B. Doubtful about its usefulness in farming. C. Optimistic but realistic about its role in society. D. Completely negative about its future development. 11. What is the author’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To warn readers about the dangers of AI technology. B. To describe how AI is being practically used in local communities. C. To argue that smartphones are more important than robots. D. To explain the complex technical workings of adaptive learning. D One of the most famous experiments in social psychology is the “marshmallow test (棉花糖实验),” in which a child is given a marshmallow and promised a second if they can resist eating it for fifteen minutes. The ability to delay satisfaction has long been linked to future success. However, in his book The Long View, social scientist Richard Fisher argues that modern society has failed this test on a global scale, becoming dangerously trapped in “living for the moment.” Fisher claims that our ancestors possessed a “cathedral thinking (大教堂思维)” mindset — the ability to plan for a future they would never personally see, like medieval (中世纪的) builders who started grand structures they knew would take centuries to complete. Today, the pressures of the 24-hour news cycle, quarterly financial reports, and instant social media pleasure have shortened our mental horizons. We are, Fisher says, “time-limited immigrants” consuming future resources to satisfy temporary present desires. The book also explores how we might retrain our brains to think longer term. Fisher introduces “The Long Now Foundation,” which is building a clock designed to tick for 10,000 years, and discusses “inter-generational justice.” He suggests treating future generations as “unborn citizens” with their own rights, not just abstract concepts. Although Fisher’s writing is elegant and his research thorough, some readers may find his optimism slightly disconnected from modern political realities. Appreciating a 10,000-year clock is one thing; persuading a politician to prioritize a fifty-year climate goal over next year’s pressure is another. Nevertheless, The Long View is a necessary wake-up call, challenging us to consider what kind of “good ancestor” we want to be. 12. What is the main problem of modern society according to Richard Fisher? A. People are highly focused on immediate interests. B. People lack the curiosity to explore the unknown. C. People have lost the ability to build grand structures. D. People are struggling with social media addiction. 13. According to the text, what does “cathedral thinking” mainly refer to? A. Building very large churches. B. Planning for a distant future. C. Thinking quickly under pressure. D. Remembering historical events. 14. What can be inferred about the author’s attitude towards Fisher’s book? A. Critical of its lack of scientific evidence and samples. B. Enthusiastic about its political influence. C. Doubtful about the author’s research methods. D. Supportive of its main message despite some concerns. 15. What would be the best title for this text? A. The Secret to Future Success: The Marshmallow Test B. Regaining Our Future: A Review of The Long View C. Why Cathedral Thinking is Outdated Today D. Richard Fisher: The Man Who Built a 10,000-Year Clock 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。 Caring for an aging parent can be overwhelming, especially when their needs seem endless.

Actually, the price was eighty-five cents per pound, and that’s what Mark, the grocery store clerk, had told her. But she’d misunderstood. Mark had a solid reputation in the community. People knew him as an honest guy, a straight shooter. And he liked that. He liked it a lot. It gave him a sense of pride, knowing that people saw him as a good person. “But what if I just let this one slide?” he thought as soon as she said “a dollar per pound”. It’s just fifteen cents. What’s the harm in that? As the woman loaded up on apples, he hesitated. His conscience was nagging (纠缠) at him, reminding him that it wasn’t right. “Don’t do it, Mark,” he told himself. “It’s not worth it.” But the words wouldn’t come out. Instead, he silently bagged the apples and placed them on the scale (秤). “Not too bad for the price,” the woman remarked, smiling as she handed him a ten dollar bill. “No, not bad at all,” Mark replied, his hand moving almost on autopilot (机械地) as he counted out the change. “Why didn’t I just correct her?” he scolded himself, feeling a pit in his stomach. He knew he was doing something wrong, but for some reason, he just couldn’t stop himself. The extra dollar felt heavier in his pocket than any coin he’d ever handled. “Can you have them delivered to 200 Maple Street?” she asked, giving him another polite smile. Mark nodded, still unable to find his voice. He watched her leave, the doorbell ringing as she stepped out onto the sidewalk. “Tell her, tell her there was a mistake,” his mind screamed. “Just run after her and give it back. She’ll understand.” But the words got stuck in his throat. Instead, he watched her walk away, disappearing into the city’s hustle and bustle. It’s funny how something so small-a single dollar-can mess with your head. 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。 Mark couldn’t shake the feeling that he’d done something terribly wrong. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next morning, as soon as Mark got to work, he saw the woman from the day before walked in. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 灌南县2025—2026学年第二学期期中考试 高二英语试卷 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。每段对话读两遍。 1.

However, a quieter, more significant revolution is happening right in our pockets. Smartphones, once simple devices for calling and texting, have become powerful tools driven by AI. This technology, often working behind the scenes, is changing not only how we communicate but also how we learn, farm, and even access healthcare in local communities. For students in county-level areas, AI-powered apps are breaking down traditional barriers. Imagine a student struggling with physics concepts. Instead of waiting for the next day’s class, they can use an app that provides personalized explanations, adjusts to their learning speed, and offers instant feedback. This is not a scene from a sci-fi movie; it is the reality of adaptive learning. These systems analyze a student’s answers to identify weak points and create a customized study path, making quality education more accessible than ever. Beyond education, AI is making its mark on traditional industries. In agriculture, for instance, local farmers are using smartphone apps that employ AI to diagnose crop diseases. By simply taking a picture of a diseased leaf, the app can instantly identify the problem and suggest effective treatments. This timely intervention can save an entire harvest, directly impacting a family’s livelihood. Of course, this technological shift comes with challenges. Concerns about data privacy and the need for reliable internet connections remain. However, the potential benefits are undeniable. The true power of AI in county-level areas lies not in replacing human effort, but in enhancing it. By handling repetitive tasks and providing intelligent insights, AI is freeing up people to focus on what they do best: creative thinking, problem-solving, and human interaction. The goal is not to create a world run by machines, but to build a smarter, more efficient world where technology serves the unique needs of every community. 8. What does the author emphasize about AI learning apps for rural students? A. They replace traditional teachers completely. B. They provide learning support tailored to individual needs. C. They are still a concept from sci-fi movies. D. They only work for physics subjects. 9. The underlined word “intervention” in paragraph 3 most likely means ______. A. a sudden problem B. a scientific discovery C. a timely action to help D. a kind of smartphone app 10. What is the author’s attitude toward AI as suggested in the last paragraph? A. Concerned about its risks to privacy. B. Doubtful about its usefulness in farming. C. Optimistic but realistic about its role in society. D. Completely negative about its future development. 11. What is the author’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To warn readers about the dangers of AI technology. B. To describe how AI is being practically used in local communities. C. To argue that smartphones are more important than robots. D. To explain the complex technical workings of adaptive learning. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了人工智能（AI）技术在县级地区（农村/基层社区）的实际应用，包括教育、农业和医疗等领域，并探讨了其带来的益处与挑战。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Imagine a student struggling with physics concepts. Instead of waiting for the next day’s class, they can use an app that provides personalized explanations, adjusts to their learning speed, and offers instant feedback.(想象一个正在努力理解物理概念的学生。他们不必等到第二天的课，而是可以使用一款应用程序，该程序提供个性化的解释，根据他们的学习速度进行调整，并提供即时反馈)”可知，AI学习应用为农村学生提供了根据个人需求量身定制的学习支持。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“By simply taking a picture of a diseased leaf, the app can instantly identify the problem and suggest effective treatments. This timely intervention can save an entire harvest, directly impacting a family’s livelihood.(只需给患病的叶子拍张照片，应用程序就能立即识别问题并提出有效的治疗方案。这种及时的intervention可以挽救整个收成)”可知，农民通过APP拍照诊断作物病害并采取治疗措施，这是一种“及时的帮助行动”，从而挽救收成。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Of course, this technological shift comes with challenges. Concerns about data privacy and the need for reliable internet connections remain. However, the potential benefits are undeniable.(当然，这种技术转变也带来了挑战。对数据隐私的担忧以及对可靠互联网连接的需求仍然存在。然而，其潜在的好处是不可否认的)”可知，作者既承认了AI带来的挑战（现实态度），又强调了其不可否认的益处（乐观态度）。由此推知，作者对AI在社会中的角色持乐观但务实的态度。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，文章第一段引入AI在智能手机中的普及；第二段介绍AI在教育领域的应用（自适应学习）；第三段介绍AI在农业领域的应用（作物病害诊断）；第四段总结AI的益处与挑战。全文围绕AI在基层社区（县级地区）的实际应用展开，因此作者的写作目的是描述AI如何在地方社区中被实际应用。 D One of the most famous experiments in social psychology is the “marshmallow test (棉花糖实验),” in which a child is given a marshmallow and promised a second if they can resist eating it for fifteen minutes. The ability to delay satisfaction has long been linked to future success. However, in his book The Long View, social scientist Richard Fisher argues that modern society has failed this test on a global scale, becoming dangerously trapped in “living for the moment.” Fisher claims that our ancestors possessed a “cathedral thinking (大教堂思维)” mindset — the ability to plan for a future they would never personally see, like medieval (中世纪的) builders who started grand structures they knew would take centuries to complete. Today, the pressures of the 24-hour news cycle, quarterly financial reports, and instant social media pleasure have shortened our mental horizons. We are, Fisher says, “time-limited immigrants” consuming future resources to satisfy temporary present desires. The book also explores how we might retrain our brains to think longer term. Fisher introduces “The Long Now Foundation,” which is building a clock designed to tick for 10,000 years, and discusses “inter-generational justice.” He suggests treating future generations as “unborn citizens” with their own rights, not just abstract concepts. Although Fisher’s writing is elegant and his research thorough, some readers may find his optimism slightly disconnected from modern political realities. Appreciating a 10,000-year clock is one thing; persuading a politician to prioritize a fifty-year climate goal over next year’s pressure is another. Nevertheless, The Long View is a necessary wake-up call, challenging us to consider what kind of “good ancestor” we want to be. 12. What is the main problem of modern society according to Richard Fisher? A. People are highly focused on immediate interests. B. People lack the curiosity to explore the unknown. C. People have lost the ability to build grand structures. D. People are struggling with social media addiction. 13. According to the text, what does “cathedral thinking” mainly refer to? A. Building very large churches. B. Planning for a distant future. C. Thinking quickly under pressure. D. Remembering historical events. 14. What can be inferred about the author’s attitude towards Fisher’s book? A. Critical of its lack of scientific evidence and samples. B. Enthusiastic about its political influence. C. Doubtful about the author’s research methods. D. Supportive of its main message despite some concerns. 15. What would be the best title for this text? A. The Secret to Future Success: The Marshmallow Test B. Regaining Our Future: A Review of The Long View C. Why Cathedral Thinking is Outdated Today D. Richard Fisher: The Man Who Built a 10,000-Year Clock 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】文章通过介绍Richard Fisher的著作《远见》，批判了现代社会沉迷于短期满足的倾向，并与祖先的“大教堂思维”进行对比，进而探讨了如何重新培养长期思维。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“However, in his book The Long View, social scientist Richard Fisher argues that modern society has failed this test on a global scale, becoming dangerously trapped in “living for the moment.” (然而，在其著作《远见》中，社会科学家Richard Fisher指出，现代社会在全球范围内未能通过这一考验，反而陷入了“只顾当下”的危险境地。)”可知，根据Richard Fisher的观点，现代社会的主要问题是人们高度关注眼前的利益。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Fisher claims that our ancestors possessed a “cathedral thinking (大教堂思维)” mindset — the ability to plan for a future they would never personally see, like medieval (中世纪的) builders who started grand structures they knew would take centuries to complete. (Fisher认为，我们的祖先拥有“大教堂思维”的观念模式——为一个他们永远无法亲眼目睹的未来进行规划的能力，就像中世纪的建筑者们那样，他们开始建造宏伟的建筑，而他们知道这些建筑显然需要数百年才能完工。)”可知，破折号后的内容是对“大教堂思维”的具体解释，这主要指的是为一个遥远的未来做规划。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Although Fisher’s writing is elegant and his research thorough, some readers may find his optimism slightly disconnected from modern political realities. (尽管Fisher的文笔优美，研究也十分详尽，但有些读者可能会觉得他的乐观情绪与当今的政治现实有些脱节。)”和“Nevertheless, The Long View is a necessary wake-up call, challenging us to consider what kind of “good ancestor” we want to be. (然而，《远见》确实起到了警醒的作用，它促使我们思考自己希望成为什么样的“优秀祖先”。)”可知，作者指出这本书有其不足之处，但肯定其警醒作用。由此可知，作者对这本书表达了一些担忧，但仍支持其主要观点。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段中“Nevertheless, The Long View is a necessary wake-up call, challenging us to consider what kind of “good ancestor” we want to be. (然而，《远见》确实起到了警醒的作用，它促使我们思考自己希望成为什么样的“优秀祖先”。)”可知，文章围绕Richard Fisher的著作《远见》展开，该书指出现代社会沉迷于短期满足，而我们需要恢复祖先那种为长远未来规划的“大教堂思维”，并探讨了如何重新训练我们的大脑进行长期思考。因此，“重获我们的未来：《远见》书评”最适合作为文章标题。 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。 Caring for an aging parent can be overwhelming, especially when their needs seem endless. Jen learned this when she began helping her mother with new health problems. She felt guilty every time she wanted a break. ___16___ As care coach Deanna explains, only when you take better care of yourself can you also take better care of others. Here are several practical steps that can help. Start by thinking clearly about what “boundaries” mean for you. ___17___ For Jen, the biggest problem was having to drive long distances every week for her mother’s doctor appointments.

It’s also important to accept both your own feelings — and the feelings of your loved ones. ___19___ Caregivers are human. It is normal to feel tired or upset, and protecting your own energy allows you to provide better care in the long run. Loved ones may want more help, but sometimes the answer has to be “no.” Above all, do not give in to guilt. Boundaries are not about leaving someone alone — they help protect your energy so you can be truly helpful when needed. ___20___ Many people face the same problem and ask the same questions every day. A. And remember, you are not alone. B. Actually, setting boundaries isn’t selfish. C. Identify what tasks create the most stress. D. Change may upset your loved one at first. E.

Actually, the price was eighty-five cents per pound, and that’s what Mark, the grocery store clerk, had told her. But she’d misunderstood. Mark had a solid reputation in the community. People knew him as an honest guy, a straight shooter. And he liked that. He liked it a lot. It gave him a sense of pride, knowing that people saw him as a good person. “But what if I just let this one slide?” he thought as soon as she said “a dollar per pound”. It’s just fifteen cents. What’s the harm in that? As the woman loaded up on apples, he hesitated. His conscience was nagging (纠缠) at him, reminding him that it wasn’t right. “Don’t do it, Mark,” he told himself. “It’s not worth it.” But the words wouldn’t come out. Instead, he silently bagged the apples and placed them on the scale (秤). “Not too bad for the price,” the woman remarked, smiling as she handed him a ten dollar bill. “No, not bad at all,” Mark replied, his hand moving almost on autopilot (机械地) as he counted out the change. “Why didn’t I just correct her?” he scolded himself, feeling a pit in his stomach. He knew he was doing something wrong, but for some reason, he just couldn’t stop himself. The extra dollar felt heavier in his pocket than any coin he’d ever handled. “Can you have them delivered to 200 Maple Street?” she asked, giving him another polite smile. Mark nodded, still unable to find his voice. He watched her leave, the doorbell ringing as she stepped out onto the sidewalk. “Tell her, tell her there was a mistake,” his mind screamed. “Just run after her and give it back. She’ll understand.” But the words got stuck in his throat. Instead, he watched her walk away, disappearing into the city’s hustle and bustle. It’s funny how something so small-a single dollar-can mess with your head. 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。 Mark couldn’t shake the feeling that he’d done something terribly wrong. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next morning, as soon as Mark got to work, he saw the woman from the day before walked in. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Mark couldn’t shake the feeling that he’d done something terribly wrong. Throughout the day, the extra dollar burned a hole in his pocket, a constant reminder of his dishonesty. He couldn't focus on his work, constantly replaying the scene in his mind. He knew he had to make things right, but the thought of facing the woman and admitting his mistake filled him with dread. Finally, he decided to take action. He wrote a note explaining the situation, enclosed the extra dollar, and prepared to deliver it to her house after work. The next morning, as soon as Mark got to work, he saw the woman from the day before walked in. His heart skipped a beat as he watched her approach the counter. Before she could say anything, Mark reached out and handed her the note and the dollar. “I’m sorry,” he said, his voice trembling. “I made a mistake yesterday. The apples were actually eighty-five cents per pound.” The woman looked surprised for a moment, then smiled warmly. “Thank you for your honesty,” she said, her words easing Mark’s guilt. He felt a weight lift off his shoulders, knowing he had done the right thing. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了Mark作为杂货店店员，在面对顾客误解价格时，因一时贪念多收了顾客十五美分，但随后良心不安，决定纠正错误的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“马克无法摆脱自己犯了大错的感觉。”可知，第一段可描写Mark内心的挣扎与不安，以及他最终决定采取行动纠正错误的决心和过程。他写了一张便条解释情况，并附上了多收的一美元，准备下班后送到顾客家中。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天早上，马克刚到公司，就看到前一天见到的那位女士走了进来。”可知，第二段可描写Mark在顾客再次光临时，如何鼓起勇气向顾客道歉并归还多收的钱，以及顾客的反应和Mark因此感到的释然。 2.续写线索：内心挣扎——决定纠正错误——写便条附钱——顾客再次光临——道歉还钱——顾客反应——Mark释然 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①集中注意力：focus on/concentrate on ②采取行动：take action/take steps/act on it ③递给某人某物：hand sb. sth./pass sth. to sb. 情绪类 ①恐惧：dread/fear ②惊讶的：surprised/astonished/shocked 【点睛】【高分句型1】He knew he had to make things right, but the thought of facing the woman and admitting his mistake filled him with dread.（运用了that引导的宾语从句，that被省略） 【高分句型2】His heart skipped a beat as he watched her approach the counter.（运用了as引导的时间状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
