I believe this course is worth offering for two reasons.First,it can help students connect English learning with real life rather than simply memorizing words and grammar rules.Second,through group work and public presentation,students can improve not only their language ability but also their confidence and creativity. I hope the course will give students more chances to use English naturally and make them more willing to express their own ideas.I would appreciate it if you could consider my proposal.

My daughters have a lot on their plates:intense academics,part-time jobs,competitive sports,and social lives.Though I am busy too,I am efficient in the kitchen and can prepare a balanced lunch in half the time they can.More importantly,I can't bear the thought of them rushing out with just a chocolate bar and an apple-that's a snack,not a meal.I have packed over 4,120 lunches and counting. But efficiency is not the real reason.What I'm really trying to do is capitalize on the time they're under my roof.My potential to influence their life choices is already declining sharply and will almost disappear for my eldest next year when she moves out to attend university. Since I still have a chance to model healthy eating and a positive relationship with food,I'm determined to do so. What I read about eating disorders in North American youth being on the rise is reflected in the messages shared by my daughters.I pay close attention when I hear them complaining about their body parts or commenting on friends who skip meals.Social media and narrow beauty standards are everywhere.It feels like a lot to compete with. As a mother of athletes,I know that eating intentionally-ensuring they get enough protein,calcium(钙)，and carbohydrates(碳水化合物)一is essential for their physical and mental well-being.While I know that a thoughtfully filled lunch bag isn't going to erase feelings of worry or loneliness that have accompanied some of my girls'school days,it might remind them that they're loved and supported at home.Besides,the comfort provided by a small treat shouldn't be underestimated. By packing their school lunches,I keep my messaging consistent-we don't skip meals. We need nutritious foods so we can learn and participate in our sports.We listen when our bodies tell us we're hungry and also when we're tired,lightheaded or unfocused.So until my girls throw their graduation caps in the air,I will continue cutting carrots and baking banana bread and preparing snack packs.Before I shut their cooler bags,I'll also keep adding a dash of hope.Hope that,by doing this,they'll learn,consciously or subconsciously,how their brains 第4页共7页 and bodies feel when they feed them regularly,with care. Going forward,I'll probably still avoid mentioning my lunch-making routine to other parents-but I know why it matters. 41.The author's attitude toward other parents'reaction in Paragraph 1 suggests A.a slight need to justify her behavior. B.a growing confidence in her parenting choices. C.a continuing discomfort with others'behavior. D.a sudden realization of her daughters'needs. 42.What does the underlined word"capitalize on"in Paragraph 3 mean? A.gain control over B.make the most of C.make up for D.put an end to 43.According to Paragraph 5,a thoughtfully filled lunch bag primarily A.focuses mainly on athletes'physical needs. B.provides care beyond basic nutrition. C.helps relieve teenagers'worries and upset from school. D.erases tension between mother and daughters. 44.The purpose of the author's consistent messaging is intended to A.assist her daughters in competitive sports. B.strengthen healthy attitudes toward food and the body. C.remind her daughters of their academic responsibilities. D.leave a lasting memory at the graduation ceremony. 45.What is the main idea of the passage? A.A mother's concern over her declining influence. B.A practical guide to packing nutritious lunches. C.Intentional parenting through a simple daily act. D.The rising competition in North American schools. 天津一中2025-2026-2高三年级英语学科五月考试卷 C At any bus stop or while waiting in line,most people will have their heads down scrolling ()on their phones.But studies suggest if you resist that urge and let your mind wander instead,there could be some serious benefits. We actually spend nearly half our waking time daydreaming,but it isn't always pleasant. In one study,people even preferred mild electric shocks to being alone with their thoughts. This explains why we automatically reach for phones during downtime. Social psychology professor Erin Westgate compares mindless scrolling to "brain candy" --momentarily pleasurable but lacking in meaning.She adds many human achievements depend largely on higher-order thinking.So next time you have a few minutes free,put away your phone and let your mind wander. Many people fear boredom,but this fear is often overblown.In a 2022 study,people predicted they would hate 20 minutes alone doing nothing,yet afterward reported greater enjoyment than expected.According to researcher Kou Murayama,the ability to mentally wander-to reflect on past experiences and consider others'viewpoints-is a distinctly human capacity that boosts learning and helps understand others. Mind-wandering is also key to problem-solving.People often find better solutions after unfocused thinking than through intentional effort alone,especially during routine tasks like driving or showering.Even when people are not actively thinking,their brains remain active in a so-called default mode(默认模式)，allowing ideas to connect in new ways.It's especially helpful for complex problems. Beyond cognitive benefits,daydreaming also boosts social and emotional connections.A study found imagining pleasant interactions with loved ones made people feel closer.Social daydreaming allows individuals to practice conversations,reflect on past interactions,and prepare for future social situations.As psychologist Poerio says,our ability to mentally"time travel"helps us better handle the social world.Murayama says he now tries to resist checking his phone during short waits and let his thoughts wander.He finds simply entertaining oneself mentally can be both satisfying and meaningful. 第5页共7页 46.Why does Erin Westgate compare mindless scrolling to "brain candy"? A.It does harm to people's health. B.It helps people to avoid boredom. C.It replaces deep thinking in daily life. D.It brings quick but shallow enjoyment. 47.What does the 2022 study suggest? A.People easily get used to phone-free life. B.Daydreaming is often underestimated. C.Being alone naturally promotes learning. D.Self-reflection is the cure for boredom. 48.What does the default mode suggest? A.Unfocused thinking fuels creativity B.Intentional effort brings new ideas. C.Complex tasks require active minds. D.Routines involve little brain activity 49.What does Poerio mean by mental "time travel"? A.Recalling memories to escape the present. B.Using imagined experiences to manage social life. C.Predicting future events with emotional accuracy. D.Keeping close relationships free from conflict. 50.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A.Maintain Focus in the Digital Age B.Discover the Joy of Being Truly Alone C.Unlock the Power of Your Wandering Mind D.Explore the Benefits of Social Daydreaming 天津一中2025-2026-2高三年级英语学科五月考试卷 D Also known as the Precautionary Approach(预防原则)or Precautionary Action,the Precautionary Principle is a concept best summed up by the proverb "better safe than sorry" or the medical maxim to“first do no harm.” Whenever we make even the smallest change within a complex system,we risk dramatic unintended consequences.The interconnections and dependencies within systems make it almost impossible to predict outcomes and because such systems often require a reasonably precise set of conditions to function,our interventions can cause damage. The Precautionary Principle reflects the reality of working with and within complex systems.It shifts the burden of proof from proving something was dangerous after the fact to proving it is safe before taking chances.It emphasizes waiting for more complete information before risking causing damage,especially if some of the possible impacts would be irreversible (不可逆的)，hard to contain,or would affect people who didn't choose to be involved., The possibility of harm does not need to be specific to that particular circumstance; sometimes we can judge a category of actions as one that always requires precaution because we know it has a high risk of unintended consequences. For example,invasive (species have repeatedly caused native species to become extinct.So it's reasonable to exercise precaution and not introduce living things into new places without strong evidence it will be harmless. The Precautionary Principle is widely applied in environmental policy.For example,the German Environmental Protection Agency explains that the Precautionary Principle has two core components in German environmental law today:preventing risks and protecting resources. Preventing risks means legislators()shouldn't take actions where our knowledge of the potential for environmental damage is incomplete or uncertain but there is cause for concern.The burden of proof is on proving lack of harm,not on proving harm.Protecting resources means preserving things like water and soil in a form future generations can use. The flexibility of the Precautionary Principle is both a source of strength and a source of weakness.We live in a fast-moving world where regulation does not always keep up with innovation,meaning guidelines(as opposed to rules)can often prove useful. Another reason the Precautionary Principle can be a practical addition to legislation is that science doesn't necessarily move fast enough to protect us from potential risks,especially ones that shift harm elsewhere or take a long time to show up.For example,thousands of human-made substances are present in the food we eat,ranging from medications given to 第6页共7页 livestock (to materials used in packaging.Proving that a new additive has health risks once it's in the food supply could take decades because it's incredibly difficult to isolate causative factors.So some regulators,including the Food and Drug Administration in America,require manufacturers in certain areas to prove something is safe before it goes to market.This approach isn't perfect,but it's far safer than waiting to discover harm after we start eating something. The Precautionary Principle forces us to ask a lot of difficult questions about the nature of risk,uncertainty,probability,the role of government,and ethics ()It can also prompt us to question our intuitions surrounding the right decisions to make in certain situations. 51.What is the central idea of the Precautionary Principle? A.Complex systems can be changed step by step. B.Harm should be proved after risky action is taken. C.Scientific progress should guide regulations. D.Safety should be shown before risky action is taken. 52.Why does the Precautionary Principle shift the burden of proof? A.Because possible damage may be serious and hard to undo. B.Because most scientific studies fail to predict the future. C.Because people involved usually choose to accept the risks. D.Because complex systems can recover quickly from damage. 53.In Paragraph 5,why are invasive species mentioned? A.To show how native species become extinct. B.To explain how ecosystems adapt to new species. C.To illustrate a category needing precaution. D.To show the complexity of environmental systems. 54.Why does the author mention human-made substances in food? A.To show why delayed harm can be hard to prove. B.To argue that food safety rules are too strict. C.To explain how additives improve modern diets. D.To prove that packaged foods are dangerous. 55.Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A.Environmental Law:Protecting Resources for the Future B.The Precautionary Principle:Acting Before Harm Is Proven C.Complex Systems:Why Science Cannot Predict Everything D.Modern Regulation:Slowing Down Risky Innovation 天津一中2025-2026-2高三年级英语学科五月考试卷 第Ⅱ卷（共35分） 第一节阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，并根据题目要求用英语回答问题。 My wife Kate loved tea.The first cup of tea I made for her was 45 years ago.It was not a success. That first cold Monday after our wedding,I arrived home earlier than she did and made tea.The horror on Kate's face when she saw the bubbling (pot marked a three- decade journey of instruction on the right way to make a cup of tea. Looking back on our decades together,the only thing that didn't change about us was our love of tea.We had cups of tea in the morning and the evening,and every hour in between. Sitting on the back deck of our farm,we held our mugs close,protecting them from the farm cats vying for our affection,brushing against our legs and meowing (for attention. On a cold day,nothing was as warming as a strong cup of tea.After a hard day,nothing as relaxing.Tea was our pick-me-up,our wind down,our comfort blanket. Near the end of her illness,I'd visit Kate each morning in the hospital.I'd arrive at 6 a.m. with a thermos (of boiled water,milk,teabags,a small teapot and two china mugs. I'd prepare us each a cup in the usual manner and gently wake her up.We'd sit quietly and enjoy the ritual and each other's company with all the medical equipment around her. We didn't talk about the past--or the future.If we talked at all it was about the boredom of the present and our new normal.When Kate was too sick to swallow,I'd bring my tea to her bedside and sit holding her hand,sipping my tea and chatting as if it was just another day, hoping she couldn't feel my heart breaking. Now when I am by myself at our farm,I don't have to heat the pot first and slowly pour boiling water over a single bag lying at the bottom.There's no need to put the milk in the cup before the tea,or to stir (and stir and stir to ensure the sugar is completely melted. I don't have to do any of those things.But I do. 56.Why was Kate horrified when she saw the bubbling tea pot?(No more than 10 words) 57.What does the underlined word"vying for"in Paragraph 3 mean?(No more than 3 words) 58.How did the author and Kate spend their time together in the hospital?(No more than 15 words) 59.Why does the author still make tea as instructed by Kate now?(No more than 15 words) 60.What do you think of the“tea ritual(仪式)”in the passage?Give your reason.(No more than 20 words) 第7页共7页 第二节书面表达（满分25分） 6l.假设你是晨光中学的高三学生李津。你校英文官网正在征集“a student--designed elective course (学生自主设计的选修课)”，鼓励学生设计一门适合高中生的选修课。请你给栏目编辑写一封邮 件，提交你的简要提案，内容包括： 1.课程名称及核心内容： 2.你认为这门课程值得开设的理由； 3.表达你对该课程开设的期待。 注意： 1.词数不少于100： 2.可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯，内容充实。 Dear Mr Brown, Yours, Li Jin 注：请勿在此处作答！
