B Podcasting (播客) has grown rapidly in recent years, gaining popularity among people who wish to make good use of their time while walking, working, or relaxing. Among its listeners is Leo, a 26-year-old librarian who once found his daily commute (通勤) extremely dull. He frequently killed time by watching meaningless short videos, which left him feeling even more tired and empty afterward. One day, a friend recommended a podcast featuring inspiring real-life stories. Leo was immediately drawn to it. Unlike short videos, podcasts require focused listening and enable listeners to picture scenes with their own imagination. This active mental participation felt refreshing to Leo. He soon formed a habit of listening for 30 minutes on each journey to and from his workplace, turning previously wasted hours into something meaningful. He soon made it a daily rule. At first, Leo worried that he would lose interest soon, as he had never been able to concentrate on long audio (音频) shows before. However, the stories were so attractive that he gradually began to look forward to his daily listening time. He explored a wide range of topics, including history, personal experiences, and popular science. As time went by, Leo became more focused at work and at home, and he gained fresh insights from what he listened to. Commuting no longer felt like a tiring burden; instead, he regarded it as a valuable chance for self-improvement. He even began taking brief notes to memorize useful knowledge, such as historical facts or practical life tips, which he later reviewed during breaks. Leo also shared his favorite podcasts with colleagues and friends. They started exchanging ideas and holding discussions about what they had learned, making his daily life more enriched and satisfying. “Podcasts transform wasted time into meaningful learning,” Leo commented. “It is incredible how much we can gain simply by listening with full attention.” For him, what once felt like dead hours have now become a journey of continuous learning and curiosity. 4. What can we infer about Leo from the first paragraph? A. He felt dissatisfied with his job. B. He was extremely tired of his lifestyle. C. He disliked communicating with others. D. He failed to manage his commute time wisely. 5. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. Listening to podcasts. B. Imagining inspiring things. C. Watching short videos. D. Recommending real stories. 6. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Trouble that Leo faced. B. Benefits that Leo received. C. Efforts that Leo made. D. Pressure that Leo suffered. 7. What message does the author convey? A. Break out of your shell. B. Change a habit, change your life. C. Think twice before you act. D. Master time, master your future. C In 2025, the European Union officially started its “Zero Plastic Ports” initiative (倡议), marking a landmark step in global marine (海洋的) environmental protection. The program requires all major EU ports to get rid of single-use plastics in port operations by 2030, including packaging and fishing equipment. It also orders regular environmental checks to track waste reduction progress and fine ports that fail to meet the targets. The initiative is a direct response to the growing crisis of ocean plastic pollution. Studies show over 8 million tons of plastic waste enter the world’s oceans annually, with ports serving as key entry points. EU ports alone produce over 1.2 million tons of port-related plastic waste each year, much of which ends up in the Atlantic and Mediterranean. This pollution not only destroys marine ecosystems — killing over 1 million seabirds and 100,000 marine mammals yearly — but also causes harm to human health through the food chain, as micro-plastics have been found in seafood consumed by millions worldwide. The move to zero-plastic ports has a long history in the EU. As early as 2018, the Eu’s Single-Use Plastics Directive banned (禁止) common single-use plastic items like straws and cutlery, laying the groundwork for the new initiative. Over the past seven years, pilot ports in the Netherlands and Spain have successfully reduced plastic waste by 65% through reusable packaging systems, waste-to-energy recycling programs, and community-led clean-up drives. These successes have proven the practicality of the goal and inspired similar projects in non-EU coastal countries, such as Morocco and Tunisia. The initiative has received widespread support from environmental organizations and port operators. The EU has set aside €2.3 billion in funding to help ports upgrade basic facilities, add waste sorting facilities and train local staff in sustainable practices. “This is not just an environmental measure, but a transformation of the entire port industry,” said EU Environment Commissioner Virginijus Sinkevičius. “It will create over 15,000 new green jobs in port management and recycling by 2030 and set a global example for sustainable maritime development.” 8. What does the “Zero Plastic Ports” initiative focus on? A. Limiting plastic production. B. Banning single-use plastics globally. C. Monitoring ocean plastic waste. D. Removing single-use plastics at EU ports. 9. What can we infer about EU ports from paragraph 2? A. They are major pollution contributors. B. They have limited bans on plastic items. C. Their pollution directly affects human health. D. Their plastic waste mainly enters the Atlantic. 10. Why does the author mention pilot ports in the Netherlands and Spain? A. To highlight the best recycling technology. B. To criticize the slow progress of other ports. C. To show that zero-plastic goals are achievable. D. To prove EU’s long history of ocean protection. 11. What does Virginijus Sinkevičius say about the initiative? A. It copies non-EU projects. B. It will reshape the port industry. C. It needs additional funding. D. It will reduce port employment. D If you’ve ever slept in a hotel, gone camping, or even slept over at a friend’s department, chances are you’ve woken up the next day feeling worn out and sleepy-eyed. Well, that’s because nature dies hard. When we sleep in a new place, our brains are actually in survival mode, only turning half off, with one hemisphere (半球) remaining more “awake” than the other. Scientists from Brown University suggest that it makes us better able to jump awake when strange sounds approach. Sleep scientists have regarded the First-Night-Effect (FNE) in humans as a regular sleep disturbance for some time, but they’ve never fully recognized how it works. So sleep scientist Masako Tamaki and her colleagues took it upon themselves to find out why. Using advanced neuroimaging techniques, they carefully studied a number of sleeping brains. Strangely, they found that the sleeping brains showed asymmetrical (不对称的) patterns of sleep activity, with one hemisphere humming along while the other slept. And while the alert hemisphere wasn’t fully awake, it was much more active than the other — even responsive to external stimuli. Subjects in the study experiencing FNE, for example, were suddenly awoken by “deviant” sounds. A creaking door. Or a screaming animal. For most of the subjects, the night watchman hemisphere was the left side, for reasons unknown. This form of sleep is also found in the animal kingdom. “Marine mammals and some birds show unihemispheric sleep, one awake and the other asleep,” said co-author Yuka Sasaki. Whales and dolphins are easily hurt when sleeping, so they sleep with one half of the brain at a time to avoid getting caught unawares. “Our brains may have a miniature system of what whales and dolphins have,” she said. Armed with this knowledge, sleep scientists expect to find a way to turn this mechanism (机制) off — mainly for people who travel often for work and may sleep in this state for a long time. “It’s possible to turn this off,” Sasaki said. “Human brains are very flexible.” 12. What is the main purpose of Masako Tamaki and her colleagues’ research? A. To prove the harm of the FNE. B. To extend people’s sleeping time. C. To explore different sleeping patterns. D. To figure out the mechanism of the FNE. 13. What does the underlined word “deviant” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Soft and familiar. B. Loud and regular. C. Strange and unexpected. D. Pleasant and gentle. 14. Why do some animals sleep with one half of the brain? A. To keep a state of relaxation. B. To balance their body systems. C. To protect them from sudden attacks. D. To save energy for the next day. 15. What do scientists hope to do based on their research? A. Train animals to sleep soundly. B. Make human brains more active. C. Improve people’s travel experience. D. Help people sleep better in new places. 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。 A grateful attitude brings real benefits to our mental health. However, the busyness of life, financial worries, and work stress constantly compete for our attention. As humans, we tend to focus on problems rather than blessings (幸事). Fortunately, there are practical habits that can help us develop a genuine sense of thankfulness. ____16____ Begin your day with spoken thanks or prayer. This small act, repeated daily, can gradually reshape how we experience everything that follows. Over time, positivity becomes a natural response rather than a forced effort. The word “thanks” carries more power than most people realize. ____17____ When you express appreciation to others — whether a coworker, a doctor, or a store clerk — you strengthen your relationships while also improving your own emotional state. Keeping a gratitude (感恩) journal is another effective strategy. Write down the people, experiences, and small moments you feel thankful for each day. ____18____ The act of writing itself forces you to slow down and truly notice the good in your life. Reading stories of those who have overcome severe difficulties can also greatly change your view. ____19____ Learning how others found strength through gratitude often inspires us to find our own. A wise person once declared, “A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.” ____20____ Developing gratitude takes continuous effort, but the rewards are well worth it. A. It can lift both the giver and the receiver. B. A grateful person faces fewer challenges. C. Over time, you can look back with appreciation. D. Such stories remind us of life’s hidden blessings. E. Therefore, we should make gratitude a daily habit. F. Each morning, we face a choice about our mindset. G. Looking back on the past brings long-term happiness. 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四个选项中选出最佳选项。 It was in 1914 that the world was first introduced to the classic children’s toy set, Tinkertoys.

Looking through the driver’s window, I saw them sitting right on the seat: my car keys and my phone. I was completely locked out. I let out a heavy sigh. Frustrated, I kicked the back tire (轮胎) and mumbled a few words to myself. “Hey, everything okay?” a voice asked. I looked over to see a teenager on a mountain bike. He had a kind face, curious and open. Feeling embarrassed, I explained my situation. “I can’t even make a call,” I said, shaking my head. “And even if I could get in touch with my wife, we only have this one car. She’s at home with the spare key, but she can’t bring it to me.” The boy looked at the car, then back at me, and paused for just a moment. Then, without saying another word, he reached into his pocket and pulled out a simple, slightly worn phone. “Here,” he said, “I’m Alex. Call her and let her know I’m heading over to get the key.” He said it so naturally, as if riding 11 kilometers for a stranger were the easiest thing in the world. I watched him ride away, his figure growing smaller and smaller until it disappeared into the soft orange glow of the sunset. There I stood alone in the empty lot. I’d just spoken to my wife on his phone — her voice was a mix of surprise, gratitude, and a bit of a hurry. After hanging up, everything grew still, broken only by the distant sound of evening traffic. The sun sank lower, painting the sky in soft purples and pinks. Headlights began to flicker (闪烁) on, carving light through the gathering dark. I didn’t move. I just kept standing there, watching where he’d disappeared, waiting. 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。 It was getting completely dark, but he still didn’t show up. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “Thank you so much, Alex,” I said. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 参照秘密级管理★启用前 试卷类型：A 2025级高一下学期期中考试 英语 2026.05 本试卷共四部分，共12页。满分150分。考试时间120分钟。 注意事项： 1．答卷前，考生务必将自己的条形码粘贴在答题卡相应的位置。 2．回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3．考试结束后，将答题卡交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。 1.

He soon formed a habit of listening for 30 minutes on each journey to and from his workplace, turning previously wasted hours into something meaningful. He soon made it a daily rule. At first, Leo worried that he would lose interest soon, as he had never been able to concentrate on long audio (音频) shows before. However, the stories were so attractive that he gradually began to look forward to his daily listening time. He explored a wide range of topics, including history, personal experiences, and popular science. As time went by, Leo became more focused at work and at home, and he gained fresh insights from what he listened to. Commuting no longer felt like a tiring burden; instead, he regarded it as a valuable chance for self-improvement. He even began taking brief notes to memorize useful knowledge, such as historical facts or practical life tips, which he later reviewed during breaks. Leo also shared his favorite podcasts with colleagues and friends. They started exchanging ideas and holding discussions about what they had learned, making his daily life more enriched and satisfying. “Podcasts transform wasted time into meaningful learning,” Leo commented. “It is incredible how much we can gain simply by listening with full attention.” For him, what once felt like dead hours have now become a journey of continuous learning and curiosity. 4. What can we infer about Leo from the first paragraph? A. He felt dissatisfied with his job. B. He was extremely tired of his lifestyle. C. He disliked communicating with others. D. He failed to manage his commute time wisely. 5. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. Listening to podcasts. B. Imagining inspiring things. C. Watching short videos. D. Recommending real stories. 6. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Trouble that Leo faced. B. Benefits that Leo received. C. Efforts that Leo made. D. Pressure that Leo suffered. 7. What message does the author convey? A. Break out of your shell. B. Change a habit, change your life. C. Think twice before you act. D. Master time, master your future. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了Leo通过听播客改变通勤方式，将浪费的时间转化为有意义的学习。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“He frequently killed time by watching meaningless short videos, which left him feeling even more tired and empty afterward.(他经常通过看无意义的短视频来消磨时间，这让他之后感到更加疲惫和空虚)”可知，Leo没有明智地利用通勤时间。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Unlike short videos, podcasts require focused listening and enable listeners to picture scenes with their own imagination. This active mental participation felt refreshing to Leo. He soon formed a habit of listening for 30 minutes on each journey to and from his workplace, turning previously wasted hours into something meaningful.(与短视频不同，播客需要专注聆听，并能让听众用自己的想象力描绘场景。这种积极的思维参与让Leo感到耳目一新。他很快养成了每天上下班途中听30分钟的习惯，把以前浪费的时间变成了有意义的事情)”可知，Leo养成了每天上下班途中听播客30分钟的习惯，所以it指代的是听播客这件事。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段中“As time went by, Leo became more focused at work and at home, and he gained fresh insights from what he listened to. Commuting no longer felt like a tiring burden; instead, he regarded it as a valuable chance for self-improvement. He even began taking brief notes to memorize useful knowledge, such as historical facts or practical life tips, which he later reviewed during breaks.(随着时间的推移，Leo在工作和家中变得更加专注，并从所听的内容中获得了新的见解。通勤不再是令人疲惫的负担，反而被他视为自我提升的宝贵机会。他甚至开始做简短的笔记来记住有用的知识，比如历史事实或实用的生活技巧，并在休息时回顾这些内容)”可知，本段主要讲述Leo从听播客中获得的好处。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段中““Podcasts transform wasted time into meaningful learning,” Leo commented. “It is incredible how much we can gain simply by listening with full attention.” For him, what once felt like dead hours have now become a journey of continuous learning and curiosity.(“播客将浪费的时间转化为有意义的学习，”Leo评论道。“仅仅通过专注聆听，我们就能获得如此多的东西，这真是不可思议。”对他来说，曾经感觉像是死去的时光，如今已变成了一段持续学习和探索的旅程)”可知，作者传达的信息是改变一个习惯就能改变你的生活。 C In 2025, the European Union officially started its “Zero Plastic Ports” initiative (倡议), marking a landmark step in global marine (海洋的) environmental protection. The program requires all major EU ports to get rid of single-use plastics in port operations by 2030, including packaging and fishing equipment. It also orders regular environmental checks to track waste reduction progress and fine ports that fail to meet the targets. The initiative is a direct response to the growing crisis of ocean plastic pollution. Studies show over 8 million tons of plastic waste enter the world’s oceans annually, with ports serving as key entry points. EU ports alone produce over 1.2 million tons of port-related plastic waste each year, much of which ends up in the Atlantic and Mediterranean. This pollution not only destroys marine ecosystems — killing over 1 million seabirds and 100,000 marine mammals yearly — but also causes harm to human health through the food chain, as micro-plastics have been found in seafood consumed by millions worldwide. The move to zero-plastic ports has a long history in the EU. As early as 2018, the Eu’s Single-Use Plastics Directive banned (禁止) common single-use plastic items like straws and cutlery, laying the groundwork for the new initiative. Over the past seven years, pilot ports in the Netherlands and Spain have successfully reduced plastic waste by 65% through reusable packaging systems, waste-to-energy recycling programs, and community-led clean-up drives. These successes have proven the practicality of the goal and inspired similar projects in non-EU coastal countries, such as Morocco and Tunisia. The initiative has received widespread support from environmental organizations and port operators. The EU has set aside €2.3 billion in funding to help ports upgrade basic facilities, add waste sorting facilities and train local staff in sustainable practices. “This is not just an environmental measure, but a transformation of the entire port industry,” said EU Environment Commissioner Virginijus Sinkevičius. “It will create over 15,000 new green jobs in port management and recycling by 2030 and set a global example for sustainable maritime development.” 8. What does the “Zero Plastic Ports” initiative focus on? A. Limiting plastic production. B. Banning single-use plastics globally. C. Monitoring ocean plastic waste. D. Removing single-use plastics at EU ports. 9. What can we infer about EU ports from paragraph 2? A. They are major pollution contributors. B. They have limited bans on plastic items. C. Their pollution directly affects human health. D. Their plastic waste mainly enters the Atlantic. 10. Why does the author mention pilot ports in the Netherlands and Spain? A. To highlight the best recycling technology. B. To criticize the slow progress of other ports. C. To show that zero-plastic goals are achievable. D. To prove EU’s long history of ocean protection. 11. What does Virginijus Sinkevičius say about the initiative? A. It copies non-EU projects. B. It will reshape the port industry. C. It needs additional funding. D. It will reduce port employment. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了欧盟“零塑料港口”倡议的内容、背景、成效及各方支持。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“The program requires all major EU ports to get rid of single-use plastics in port operations by 2030, including packaging and fishing equipment.(该计划要求所有欧盟主要港口在2030年前消除港口运营中的一次性塑料，包括包装和渔具)”可知，该倡议的重点是消除欧盟港口的一次性塑料。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“EU ports alone produce over 1.2 million tons of port-related plastic waste each year, much of which ends up in the Atlantic and Mediterranean.(仅欧盟港口每年就产生超过120万吨港口相关塑料废物，其中大部分最终流入大西洋和地中海)”可推知，欧盟港口是主要的污染来源。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Over the past seven years, pilot ports in the Netherlands and Spain have successfully reduced plastic waste by 65% through reusable packaging systems, waste-to-energy recycling programs, and community-led clean-up drives. These successes have proven the practicality of the goal and inspired similar projects in non-EU coastal countries, such as Morocco and Tunisia.(在过去七年中，荷兰和西班牙的试点港口通过可重复使用的包装系统、垃圾转能源回收项目以及社区主导的清理活动，成功将塑料废物减少了65%。这些成功证明了该目标的可行性，并激励了非欧盟沿海国家（如摩洛哥和突尼斯）开展类似项目)”可知，作者提到试点港口是为了说明零塑料目标是可以实现的。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中Virginijus Sinkevičius所说的“This is not just an environmental measure, but a transformation of the entire port industry.(这不仅仅是一项环保措施，更是整个港口行业的转型)”可知，Virginijus Sinkevičius认为该倡议将重塑港口行业。 D If you’ve ever slept in a hotel, gone camping, or even slept over at a friend’s department, chances are you’ve woken up the next day feeling worn out and sleepy-eyed. Well, that’s because nature dies hard. When we sleep in a new place, our brains are actually in survival mode, only turning half off, with one hemisphere (半球) remaining more “awake” than the other. Scientists from Brown University suggest that it makes us better able to jump awake when strange sounds approach. Sleep scientists have regarded the First-Night-Effect (FNE) in humans as a regular sleep disturbance for some time, but they’ve never fully recognized how it works. So sleep scientist Masako Tamaki and her colleagues took it upon themselves to find out why. Using advanced neuroimaging techniques, they carefully studied a number of sleeping brains. Strangely, they found that the sleeping brains showed asymmetrical (不对称的) patterns of sleep activity, with one hemisphere humming along while the other slept. And while the alert hemisphere wasn’t fully awake, it was much more active than the other — even responsive to external stimuli. Subjects in the study experiencing FNE, for example, were suddenly awoken by “deviant” sounds. A creaking door. Or a screaming animal. For most of the subjects, the night watchman hemisphere was the left side, for reasons unknown. This form of sleep is also found in the animal kingdom. “Marine mammals and some birds show unihemispheric sleep, one awake and the other asleep,” said co-author Yuka Sasaki. Whales and dolphins are easily hurt when sleeping, so they sleep with one half of the brain at a time to avoid getting caught unawares. “Our brains may have a miniature system of what whales and dolphins have,” she said. Armed with this knowledge, sleep scientists expect to find a way to turn this mechanism (机制) off — mainly for people who travel often for work and may sleep in this state for a long time. “It’s possible to turn this off,” Sasaki said. “Human brains are very flexible.” 12. What is the main purpose of Masako Tamaki and her colleagues’ research? A. To prove the harm of the FNE. B. To extend people’s sleeping time. C. To explore different sleeping patterns. D. To figure out the mechanism of the FNE. 13. What does the underlined word “deviant” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Soft and familiar. B. Loud and regular. C. Strange and unexpected. D. Pleasant and gentle. 14. Why do some animals sleep with one half of the brain? A. To keep a state of relaxation. B. To balance their body systems. C. To protect them from sudden attacks. D. To save energy for the next day. 15. What do scientists hope to do based on their research? A. Train animals to sleep soundly. B. Make human brains more active. C. Improve people’s travel experience. D. Help people sleep better in new places. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了科学家通过研究发现“首夜效应”的机制——人在新环境睡觉时大脑半球不对称运作，一侧保持警觉以应对危险。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Sleep scientists have regarded the First-Night-Effect (FNE) in humans as a regular sleep disturbance for some time, but they’ve never fully recognized how it works. So sleep scientist Masako Tamaki and her colleagues took it upon themselves to find out why. (一段时间以来，睡眠科学家一直认为人类的首夜效应（FNE）是一种常见的睡眠障碍，但他们从未完全认识到它是如何起作用的。因此，睡眠科学家Masako Tamaki和她的同事们主动承担起了找出原因的任务。)”可知，他们研究的目的是弄清首夜效应的机制。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“And while the alert hemisphere wasn’t fully awake, it was much more active than the other — even responsive to external stimuli. Subjects in the study experiencing FNE, for example, were suddenly awoken by “deviant” sounds. A creaking door. Or a screaming animal. (虽然警觉半球没有完全清醒，但它比其他半球活跃得多，甚至对外部刺激也有反应。例如，研究中经历FNE的受试者突然被“deviant”声音吵醒。一扇嘎吱作响的门。或者是一只尖叫的动物。)”可知，这些声音是出人意料的、奇怪的，deviant表示“出人意料的、奇怪的”。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Whales and dolphins are easily hurt when sleeping, so they sleep with one half of the brain at a time to avoid getting caught unawares. (鲸鱼和海豚在睡觉时很容易受到伤害，所以它们一次只用一半的大脑睡觉，以避免被突然袭击。)”可知，动物半脑睡眠是为了保护自己免受突然攻击。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Armed with this knowledge, sleep scientists expect to find a way to turn this mechanism (机制) off — mainly for people who travel often for work and may sleep in this state for a long time. (有了这些知识，睡眠科学家们希望找到一种方法来关闭这种机制——主要是针对经常出差并可能在这种状态下长时间睡眠的人。)”可知，科学家希望帮助人们在新地方睡得更好。 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。 A grateful attitude brings real benefits to our mental health. However, the busyness of life, financial worries, and work stress constantly compete for our attention. As humans, we tend to focus on problems rather than blessings (幸事). Fortunately, there are practical habits that can help us develop a genuine sense of thankfulness. ____16____ Begin your day with spoken thanks or prayer. This small act, repeated daily, can gradually reshape how we experience everything that follows. Over time, positivity becomes a natural response rather than a forced effort. The word “thanks” carries more power than most people realize. ____17____ When you express appreciation to others — whether a coworker, a doctor, or a store clerk — you strengthen your relationships while also improving your own emotional state. Keeping a gratitude (感恩) journal is another effective strategy. Write down the people, experiences, and small moments you feel thankful for each day. ____18____ The act of writing itself forces you to slow down and truly notice the good in your life. Reading stories of those who have overcome severe difficulties can also greatly change your view. ____19____ Learning how others found strength through gratitude often inspires us to find our own. A wise person once declared, “A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.” ____20____ Developing gratitude takes continuous effort, but the rewards are well worth it. A. It can lift both the giver and the receiver. B. A grateful person faces fewer challenges. C. Over time, you can look back with appreciation. D. Such stories remind us of life’s hidden blessings.

From my perspective, I strongly support this initiative. First and foremost, these systems provide personalized learning. While teachers have limited time, AI can instantly analyze each student’s weak points and offer targeted exercises, greatly contributing to our learning efficiency. Besides, a pressure-free learning environment is created in the system, through which students hesitating to ask teachers questions can repeatedly seek help without embarrassment. Last but not least, by handling routine tasks like grading, this system frees teachers from heavy paperwork. Consequently, they can devote more energy to deeper instruction and emotional guidance. That is why I believe introducing AI into our classrooms is a step worth taking — for both students and teachers. Yours, Li Hua 范文 2 Dear Editor, While AI-powered teaching system is a powerful boost to education, I think the downsides of it outweigh the upsides. Admittedly, AI offers convenience. However, education involves not just knowledge delivery but emotional connection. Can AI truly understand a student’s frustration or offer genuine encouragement? Furthermore, over-reliance on AI may weaken our critical thinking, thus preventing students from deep understanding. Finally, data privacy demands our attention. Behind the AI system lies a vast amount of personal information, the safety of which schools must guarantee through strict supervision. Given these concerns, I urge our school to think twice before rushing to embrace AI. Let us protect what makes education truly human.

Looking through the driver’s window, I saw them sitting right on the seat: my car keys and my phone. I was completely locked out. I let out a heavy sigh. Frustrated, I kicked the back tire (轮胎) and mumbled a few words to myself. “Hey, everything okay?” a voice asked. I looked over to see a teenager on a mountain bike. He had a kind face, curious and open. Feeling embarrassed, I explained my situation. “I can’t even make a call,” I said, shaking my head. “And even if I could get in touch with my wife, we only have this one car. She’s at home with the spare key, but she can’t bring it to me.” The boy looked at the car, then back at me, and paused for just a moment. Then, without saying another word, he reached into his pocket and pulled out a simple, slightly worn phone. “Here,” he said, “I’m Alex. Call her and let her know I’m heading over to get the key.” He said it so naturally, as if riding 11 kilometers for a stranger were the easiest thing in the world. I watched him ride away, his figure growing smaller and smaller until it disappeared into the soft orange glow of the sunset. There I stood alone in the empty lot. I’d just spoken to my wife on his phone — her voice was a mix of surprise, gratitude, and a bit of a hurry. After hanging up, everything grew still, broken only by the distant sound of evening traffic. The sun sank lower, painting the sky in soft purples and pinks. Headlights began to flicker (闪烁) on, carving light through the gathering dark. I didn’t move. I just kept standing there, watching where he’d disappeared, waiting. 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。 It was getting completely dark, but he still didn’t show up. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “Thank you so much, Alex,” I said. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文 It was getting completely dark, but he still didn’t show up. Anxious and restless, I waited, my heart sinking with each passing minute. Not until then did I realize how foolish I had been. Standing alone in the empty lot, I shot anxious glances toward the direction where he had disappeared, my hands clenched tightly around the plastic bag. Had he cheated me? Just as despair began to set in, a figure emerged from the darkness — Alex, pedaling hard, his face wet with sweat. “Sorry! Flat tire,” he shouted, holding up my spare key. “Thank you so much, Alex,” I said. So overwhelmed was I that words failed me. Only then did it strike me — what true kindness really meant. Casting a grateful glance at his tired smile, I felt warmth flood my heart. “You saved my night,” I added, my voice trembling. Alex simply shrugged, his worn phone tucked back into his pocket. Watching him ride away into the night, I stood there for a long time, the key pressed against my chest — a stranger’s trust, earned with an 11-kilometer ride. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了作者购物后发现钥匙和手机锁在车内，一个叫Alex的少年主动借手机并骑11公里帮作者取备用钥匙的暖心故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写 ①由第一段首句可知，本段可描写作者在黑暗中焦急等待时的内心挣扎，从怀疑到绝望，再到Alex终于出现的转折。 ②由第二段首句可知，本段可描写作者拿到钥匙后对Alex的感激之情，以及对善意的深刻感悟。 2. 续写线索：焦虑等待→内心怀疑→绝望降临→Alex出现→表达感激→感悟善意 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①颤抖：tremble/shake ②耸肩：shrug / lift his shoulders 情绪类 ①焦虑的：anxious/nervous ②感激的：grateful/thankful/appreciative 【点睛】【高分句型1】Not until then did I realize how foolish I had been.
