B Having spent more than a decade on the dance floor, ROME — Niccolo Filippi, a 23-year-old Italian dance performer, recently decided to explore Chinese culture and its traditional dance forms and believes that this experience will not only boost his career, but also broaden his horizons beyond the world of dance. His interest in diversifying his skills grew after he stumbled upon a short video of traditional Chinese-styled dance on YouTube. “I saw it as an art that combines tradition and modernity, which was mostly the reason why I liked it,” says Filippi. Ever since, he has been closely following Chinese dance performers and watching numerous videos to learn more about the traditional style that he admires. “I prefer the traditional style because of its light movements. It also reflects my personality with elegance,” he adds. Filippi’s chance came when he was invited to perform for a Chinese New Year celebration in the central Italian city of Florence. He has since fully committed himself to the art form, learning several pieces and putting his newfound passion into practice. “The biggest difference that I found (compared to other disciplines) is the change of mood and emotional expressions among dances,” says Filippi, adding that he needed to shift from the dynamic moves of hip-hop to the graceful and fluid movements of Chinese dance. Despite various obstacles, Filippi’s efforts have not gone unnoticed. Two of his friends shared videos of his performances on social media, and the response was overwhelming. One video garnered 500,000 views, while the other received 200,000 views. Filippi believes that learning about different cultures is priceless, and he sees it as a means of personal growth. “I like to think of a person as a book,” he says. “Embracing different traditions and cultures, such as Chinese culture and many others, is like adding new chapters to my book, making it more diverse and wonderful.” 4. What is the main reason why Filippi falls in love with traditional Chinese dance? A. Its potential to boost his career. B. Its graceful and light movements. C. Its mix of traditional and modern elements. D. Its true reflection of his elegant personality. 5. How does the author illustrate the popularity of Filippi’s videos? A. By giving an example. B. By listing numbers. C. By sharing a story. D. By making a comparison. 6. Why does Filippi believe that learning about different cultures is priceless? A. Because he thinks little of learning from other cultures. B. Because people prefer to write down their past experiences. C. Because a book with chapters on traditions is more wonderful. D. Because he thinks accepting various cultures boosts personal growth. 7. What is the main idea of the passage? A. An Italian dancer shows passion for Chinese-styled dance. B. An Italian’s dance journey towards specialization starts. C. Chinese-styled dance videos go viral on social media. D. Filippi’s desire for Chinese culture extends beyond dance. C Taking good care of your teeth may be linked to better brain health, according to a study published in the July 5, 2023, online issue of Neurology. “Our study found that gum (牙龈) disease and tooth loss were linked to brain shrinkage (萎缩) in the hippocampus, which plays a role in memory and Alzheimer’s disease,” said study author Satoshi Yamaguchi, Ph. D. of Tohoku University in Sendai, Japan. The study involved 172 people without memory problems. Their average age was 67. Participants had dental exams and took memory tests at the beginning of the study. They also had brain scans to measure the volume of their hippocampus at the beginning of the study. This was measured again four years later. For each participant, researchers counted the number of teeth and checked for amount of gum disease. Researchers found that the number of teeth and amount of gum disease was linked to changes in the left hippocampus of the brain. For people with mild gum disease, having fewer teeth was associated with a faster rate of brain shrinkage, which is the same for people with severe gum disease having more teeth. After adjusting for age, researchers found that for people with mild gum disease, the increase in the rate of brain shrinkage due to one less tooth was equal to nearly one year of brain aging. By contrast, for people with severe gum disease the increase in brain shrinkage due to one more tooth was equal to 1.3 years of brain aging. “These results highlight the importance of preserving the health of the teeth and not just maintaining the teeth,” Yamaguchi said. “The findings suggest that controlling the progression of gum disease through regular dental visits is crucial, and that teeth with severe gum disease may need to be removed and replaced with appropriate false ones.” Yamaguchi said future studies are needed with larger groups of people. The limitation of the study is that it was conducted in one region of Japan, so the results may not be applied to other locations. 8. What is Yamaguchi’s study mainly about? A. Causes of gum discase. B. The symptoms of brain shrinkage. C. Ways to take good care of one’s teeth. D. The connection between the teeth and the brain. 9. How did researchers reach the conclusion? A. By making comparisons. B. By referring to previous studies. C. By conducting a survey among dentists. D. By proving experts’ theory in experiments. 10. What do the research findings indicate? A. Gum disease is increasing among people. B. Keeping teeth healthy is of great importance. C. Removing natural teeth is bad for dental health. D. Doing a routine dental checkup can avoid gum disease. 11. What’s Yamaguchi’s attitude towards the study? A. Disapproving. B. Unclear. C. Positive. D. Objective. D We are all aware of the damaging pollution that’s created by driving petrol and diesel (柴油) vehicles. Many of the world’s cities are blocked with traffic, creating fumes containing gases such as nitrogen oxides. The solution for a cleaner, greener future could be electric vehicles. But how optimistic should we be? There was much excitement last year when the UK government announced it will ban the sale of new petrol and diesel cars from 2030. But is that easier said than done? The road to global traffic being totally electric is still a long way off. Currently, battery life is an issue — a fully charged battery won’t take you as far as a full tank of petrol. There are also limited numbers of charging points to plug an electric vehicle into. Of course, technology is always improving. Some of the biggest tech companies, like Google and Tesla, are spending huge amounts of money developing electric cars. And most of the big car manufacturers are now making them too. Colin Herron, a consultant on low-carbon vehicle technology, told the BBC, “The big leap forward will come with solid-state batteries, which will appear first in mobile phones and laptops before they progress to cars. “These will charge more quickly and give cars a bigger range. Cost is another issue that may discourage people switching to electric power. But some countries offer incentive, such as cutting prices by reducing import taxes, and not charging for road tax and parking. Some also provide exclusive lanes for electric cars to be driven on, overtaking traditional cars which might be stuck in jams. These kinds of measures have made Norway the country with the most electric cars per capita (人均) at more than thirty electric cars per 1000 inhabitants. But Colin Herron warns that “electric motoring” doesn’t mean a zero-carbon future. “It’s emission-free motoring, but the car has to be built, the battery has to be built, and the electricity does come from somewhere.” Maybe it’s time to think about making fewer journeys or using public transport. 12. What do we know from the question at the end of Paragraph 1? A. Electric vehicles may not solve the traffic problems. B. It’s not a good idea to replace petrol vehicles with electric ones. C. We should not be too optimistic about the future. D. The road to global traffic being totally electric is still a long way off. 13. What does the underlined word “incentive” mean in Paragraph 2? A. permission B. insistence C. agreement D. encouragement 14. According to Colin Herron, why is electric motoring not a zero-carbon solution? A. Because electric cars still produce nitrogen oxides. B. Because all electricity comes from fossil fuels. C. Because making cars, batteries and supplying electricity all create carbon emissions. D. Because electric cars are less efficient. 15. What is the most suitable title for the text? A. Total Electric Traffic: A Long Way to Go. B. Electric Vehicles: A Road to a Greener Future. C. Electric Power or Petrol: A Tough Decision to Make. D. Petrol and Diesel Vehicles: A Main Source of Gases. 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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Whether you visit regularly or you’re new to using libraries, you might be surprised to learn how much they can do for you — beyond letting you borrow amazing books for free. ____16____ Here are some of the many things the library has to offer.

I’m so sorry. I’ll have to come back for these things later,” Mary said to the cashier, who started picking up the items and putting them back. Meanwhile, Mary prepared to walk away when the boy behind her in line spoke up. “Wait, ma’ am. You don’ t have many things anyway. I’ll pay for them,” the boy said. He couldn’t be older than 12, and Mary noticed that he didn’t look particularly well-off so she wanted to refuse his offer. “I insist, ma’ am. Sometimes, we have to do good things, right?” the boy said and paid for everything that Mary had picked out. After they got their groceries ready, Mary and the boy went outside. “Hey, I’m Mary. What’s your name?” she said conversationally. “I’m Mark,” the boy said. “Thank you so much for what you did, Mark. It saved me a trip to the store. Listen, how about giving me your phone number so I can pay you back as soon as I get my wallet,” Mary suggested, and the kid wrote down his number on the receipt. “Here, but don’t worry about it. There’s no rush. I live nearby anyway,” Mark said. “Although I also believe in paying kindness forward like you, we have to pay off our debts,” Mary added, and they said goodbye. Mary told her daughter Anastacia about this incident and always thought of the boy who paid for her things, worrying that he might need the money urgently. So the next day, after calling the boy and learning his address, they went to his home. Returning the money, they began to chat. By talking more, Mary learned that Mark’s grandma needed a huge surgery for $23,000. The hospital was keeping her in observation while Mark raised the money. And he just started a GoFundMe but it was not that popular. “You shouldn’t have to do that on your own,” Mary said, concerned. “We don’t have anyone else. It’s only us,” Mark shrugged. 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。 Mary and Anastacia looked at each other and came to a wordless decision. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The GoFundMe project reached far beyond their goal. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025—2026学年度第二学期期中考试 高二英语 （满分：130分 时间：120分钟） 第一部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节 阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A Welcome to Fanfare, the Horn Book’s annual best books list!

D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。根据发表在2023年7月5日《神经病学》在线期刊上的一项研究，好好照顾你的牙齿可能与更好的大脑健康有关。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Our study found that gum (牙龈) disease and tooth loss were linked to brain shrinkage (萎缩) in the hippocampus, which plays a role in memory and Alzheimer’s disease(我们的研究发现，牙龈疾病和牙齿脱落与海马体的大脑萎缩有关，海马体在记忆和阿尔茨海默病中起着重要作用)”可知，Yamaguchi的研究主要是关于牙齿健康与大脑之间的联系，故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“The study involved 172 people without memory problems. Their average age was 67. Participants had dental exams and took memory tests at the beginning of the study. They also had brain scans to measure the volume of their hippocampus at the beginning of the study. This was measured again four years later. For each participant, researchers counted the number of teeth and checked for amount of gum disease.(这项研究涉及172名没有记忆问题的人。他们的平均年龄为67岁。在研究开始时，参与者进行了牙齿检查和记忆力测试。在研究开始时，他们还接受了脑部扫描，以测量海马体的体积。四年后再次进行了测量。研究人员对每个参与者的牙齿数量进行了统计，并检查了牙龈疾病的数量。)”可知，研究人员通过对比数据的方式开展研究，故选A。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“These results highlight the importance of preserving the health of the teeth and not just maintaining the teeth(这些结果强调了保持牙齿健康的重要性，而不仅仅是维护牙齿)”可知，研究结果表明保持牙齿健康非常重要，故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“These results highlight the importance of preserving the health of the teeth and not just maintaining the teeth(这些结果强调了保护牙齿健康的重要性，而不仅仅是维护牙齿)”和“The limitation of the study is that it was conducted in one region of Japan, so the results may not be applied to other locations.(这项研究的局限性在于它是在日本的一个地区进行的，因此结果可能不适用于其他地区。)”可知，Yamaguchi既说了研究的优点也说了它的局限性，所以他的态度是客观的，故选D。 D We are all aware of the damaging pollution that’s created by driving petrol and diesel (柴油) vehicles. Many of the world’s cities are blocked with traffic, creating fumes containing gases such as nitrogen oxides. The solution for a cleaner, greener future could be electric vehicles. But how optimistic should we be? There was much excitement last year when the UK government announced it will ban the sale of new petrol and diesel cars from 2030. But is that easier said than done? The road to global traffic being totally electric is still a long way off. Currently, battery life is an issue — a fully charged battery won’t take you as far as a full tank of petrol. There are also limited numbers of charging points to plug an electric vehicle into. Of course, technology is always improving. Some of the biggest tech companies, like Google and Tesla, are spending huge amounts of money developing electric cars. And most of the big car manufacturers are now making them too. Colin Herron, a consultant on low-carbon vehicle technology, told the BBC, “The big leap forward will come with solid-state batteries, which will appear first in mobile phones and laptops before they progress to cars. “These will charge more quickly and give cars a bigger range. Cost is another issue that may discourage people switching to electric power. But some countries offer incentive, such as cutting prices by reducing import taxes, and not charging for road tax and parking. Some also provide exclusive lanes for electric cars to be driven on, overtaking traditional cars which might be stuck in jams. These kinds of measures have made Norway the country with the most electric cars per capita (人均) at more than thirty electric cars per 1000 inhabitants. But Colin Herron warns that “electric motoring” doesn’t mean a zero-carbon future. “It’s emission-free motoring, but the car has to be built, the battery has to be built, and the electricity does come from somewhere.” Maybe it’s time to think about making fewer journeys or using public transport. 12. What do we know from the question at the end of Paragraph 1? A. Electric vehicles may not solve the traffic problems. B. It’s not a good idea to replace petrol vehicles with electric ones. C. We should not be too optimistic about the future. D. The road to global traffic being totally electric is still a long way off. 13. What does the underlined word “incentive” mean in Paragraph 2? A. permission B. insistence C. agreement D. encouragement 14. According to Colin Herron, why is electric motoring not a zero-carbon solution? A. Because electric cars still produce nitrogen oxides. B. Because all electricity comes from fossil fuels. C. Because making cars, batteries and supplying electricity all create carbon emissions. D. Because electric cars are less efficient. 15. What is the most suitable title for the text? A. Total Electric Traffic: A Long Way to Go. B. Electric Vehicles: A Road to a Greener Future. C. Electric Power or Petrol: A Tough Decision to Make. D. Petrol and Diesel Vehicles: A Main Source of Gases. 【答案】12. D 13. D 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了电动汽车虽被视为解决污染的方案，但仍面临诸多挑战，全面电动化任重道远。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段末“But how optimistic should we be? There was much excitement last year when the UK government announced it will ban the sale of new petrol and diesel cars from 2030. But is that easier said than done?(但我们应该有多乐观呢？去年，当英国政府宣布将从2030年起禁止销售新的汽油和柴油汽车时，人们非常兴奋。但说起来容易做起来难吗？)”以及第二段的“The road to global traffic being totally electric is still a long way off.(通往全球交通完全电动化的道路还有很长的路要走)”可知，作者通过反问暗示电动汽车全面替代燃油车并非易事，前路漫长。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段划线单词后文“such as cutting prices by reducing import taxes, and not charging for road tax and parking(比如通过减少进口税降价，不收道路税和停车费)”可知，减免税费、免费停车等政策是为了刺激民众购买电动车，因此incentive意为“鼓励、激励”，与encouragement同义。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中Colin Herron所说“It’s emission-free motoring, but the car has to be built, the battery has to be built, and the electricity does come from somewhere.(驾驶是零排放的，但车要造，电池要造，电也有来源)”可知，制造汽车、电池和供电都会产生碳排放。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，并结合第一段末“But how optimistic should we be? There was much excitement last year when the UK government announced it will ban the sale of new petrol and diesel cars from 2030. But is that easier said than done?(但我们应该有多乐观呢？去年，当英国政府宣布将从2030年起禁止销售新的汽油和柴油汽车时，人们非常兴奋。但说起来容易做起来难吗？)”可知，文章首先提出电动汽车是未来方向，接着指出电池续航、充电桩、成本等问题，最后指出电动车也非零碳，全面电动化还有很长的路要走。A选项“全面电动交通：任重道远”最能概括全文主旨。 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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Whether you visit regularly or you’re new to using libraries, you might be surprised to learn how much they can do for you — beyond letting you borrow amazing books for free. ____16____ Here are some of the many things the library has to offer.

There are also computers to use for free and quiet zones where you can do homework without distractions (分心的事). You may also find free or discounted printing and photocopying.(除了书籍之外，您或者您家中的成年人还可以借助像霍普拉和卡诺普这样的图书馆应用程序来借阅在线电影、音乐和电视节目——请查明您所在图书馆使用的是哪个应用程序。此外，还有可供免费使用的电脑以及安静的区域供您用于做作业，不会受到干扰。您或许还能找到免费或打折的打印和复印服务)”可知，该段介绍了除书籍外，还能借助图书馆应用借阅和播放电影、音乐等，还可以免费使用电脑等。A项“一个多媒体中心”能很好地概括这一多媒体功能的集合。故选A。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Many libraries host free events for young people.

If so, the best way to deal with them is by asking questions. It not only clears up confusion but also develops critical thinking. Here are my suggestions for raising questions effectively. We can start before class by reviewing materials and writing down unclear points. Then, during class, it’s important to listen carefully and relate the content to our existing knowledge. Also, instead of merely asking for facts, we should use “why” and “how” to explore reasons and processes. This way, our questions will become more meaningful and thought-provoking. Every question is a door to discovery. Let’s learn by asking! Thank you! 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。要求考生写一篇发言稿，说明提问的重要性以及对此的建议。 【详解】1.词汇积累 处理：deal with→cope with/tackle 方式：way→approach/method 写下：write down→take down/put down 培养：develop→cultivate/culture 2.句式拓展 句型转换 原句：It not only clears up confusion but also develops critical thinking. 拓展句：Not only does it clear up confusion but it also develops critical thinking. 【点睛】【高分句型1】If so, the best way to deal with them is by asking questions.（运用了不定式作后置定语） 【高分句型2】Also, instead of merely asking for facts, we should use “why” and “how” to explore reasons and processes.（运用了动名词作宾语） 第二节：读后续写 （满分 25 分） 62. 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。 “I must have left my wallet home. I’m so sorry. I’ll have to come back for these things later,” Mary said to the cashier, who started picking up the items and putting them back. Meanwhile, Mary prepared to walk away when the boy behind her in line spoke up. “Wait, ma’ am. You don’ t have many things anyway. I’ll pay for them,” the boy said. He couldn’t be older than 12, and Mary noticed that he didn’t look particularly well-off so she wanted to refuse his offer. “I insist, ma’ am. Sometimes, we have to do good things, right?” the boy said and paid for everything that Mary had picked out. After they got their groceries ready, Mary and the boy went outside. “Hey, I’m Mary. What’s your name?” she said conversationally. “I’m Mark,” the boy said. “Thank you so much for what you did, Mark. It saved me a trip to the store. Listen, how about giving me your phone number so I can pay you back as soon as I get my wallet,” Mary suggested, and the kid wrote down his number on the receipt. “Here, but don’t worry about it. There’s no rush. I live nearby anyway,” Mark said. “Although I also believe in paying kindness forward like you, we have to pay off our debts,” Mary added, and they said goodbye. Mary told her daughter Anastacia about this incident and always thought of the boy who paid for her things, worrying that he might need the money urgently. So the next day, after calling the boy and learning his address, they went to his home. Returning the money, they began to chat. By talking more, Mary learned that Mark’s grandma needed a huge surgery for $23,000. The hospital was keeping her in observation while Mark raised the money. And he just started a GoFundMe but it was not that popular. “You shouldn’t have to do that on your own,” Mary said, concerned. “We don’t have anyone else. It’s only us,” Mark shrugged. 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。 Mary and Anastacia looked at each other and came to a wordless decision. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The GoFundMe project reached far beyond their goal. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Mary and Anastacia looked at each other and came to a wordless decision. They knew they had to help Mark and his grandma. Anastacia, being tech-savvy, immediately took to social media, sharing Mark’s GoFundMe link with her friends and encouraging them to donate. Mary, on the other hand, reached out to her colleagues and community members, spreading the word about Mark’s situation and asking for their support. The GoFundMe project reached far beyond their goal. In just a few days, they had raised not only the $23,000 needed for the surgery but also an additional amount to cover any unexpected expenses. Mark was overwhelmed with gratitude when Mary and Anastacia told him the news. “I didn’t expect this much support. Thank you so much!” he said, tears welling up in his eyes. The surgery was successful, and Mark’s grandma recovered well. From that day on, Mary and Anastacia became a part of Mark’s family, sharing joys and sorrows, and celebrating life’s milestones together. They all believed that kindness and generosity could create miracles, and they were living proof of that. 【解析】 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述了在一个商店里，Mary忘记带钱包无法支付选购的商品，准备离开时，排在她后面的男孩Mark主动提出帮她支付。Mary对此非常感激，并想要偿还这笔钱。后来，Mary了解到Mark的奶奶需要一笔巨额手术费，而Mark正在独自筹集资金。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“Mary和Anastacia对视了一眼，无言中达成了共识。”可知，第一段可描写她们决定帮助Mark，以及她们是如何帮助Mark的。 ②由第二段首句内容“GoFundMe筹款项目大大超出了预期目标。”可知，第二段可描写筹款项目取得的进展，Mark表示感谢以及感悟。 2.续写线索：Mary和Anastacia主动提供帮助——筹款项目取得进展——表示感谢——手术成功——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 帮助：help/ give sb a hand 鼓励某人做某事：encourage sb to do sth/ inspire sb to do sth 告诉某人某事：tell sb sth/ inform sb of sth 情绪类 感谢：thank/ appreciate 快乐：joy/ delight 【点睛】[高分句型1] Mark was overwhelmed with gratitude when Mary and Anastacia told him the news.（运用了when引导时间状语从句） [高分句型2] They all believed that kindness and generosity could create miracles, and they were living proof of that.（运用了第一个that引导宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
