Danyang—Kunshan Grand Bridge No bridge is as long as the Danyang — Kunshan Grand Bridge in the world. The 164.85-kilometre-long bridge opened in 2011 in China serves as part of the Beijing — Shanghai high-speed railway. The trip from Ningbo to Jiaxing that previously took 4.5 hours has been reduced to 2 hours, thanks to this bridge. Rio—Niterói Bridge Completed in 1974, the Rio — Niterói Bridge in Brazil is the second longest bridge in Latin America connecting the cities of Rio and Niterói across the Guanabara Bay. The Rio — Niterói Bridge is technically known as a box-girder (箱形梁的) bridge, made of special concrete. It receives an astonishing 140,000 (or more) vehicles per day. Hartland Covered Bridge The Hartland Covered Bridge is the world’s longest covered bridge. The 1,282-foot-long bridge was opened in 1901 and has been on Canada’s list of National Historic Sites since 1980. Although it was originally built without a roof, the bridge was capped with wooden materials during the repairs in 1921. Jiaozhou Bay Bridge The newly-built Jiaozhou Bay Bridge in China was named “the world’s longest bridge over water” by the Guinness Book of World Records in 2011, a title previously held by the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway. The dispute (争议) was settled when the title of “the longest continuous bridge over water” was given to the causeway, with the Jiaozhou Bay Bridge receiving the title of “the longest bridge over water”. 1. Which of the following bridges serves as a part of a railway? A. Danyang — Kunshan Grand Bridge. B. Rio — Niterói Bridge. C. Hartland Covered Bridge. D. Jiaozhou Bay Bridge. 2. What is special about the Hartland Covered Bridge? A. It is a busy bridge. B. It is a wooden bridge. C. It has a wooden roof. D. It was repaired in 1980. 3. Where can you find the longest bridge over water? A. In America. B. In Brazil. C. In Canada. D. In China. B Tiaohua Festival is a main festival of the Miao people in Guizhou Province, China. It originates from Anshum City in Guizhou Province and has gradually developed into a comprehensive (综合的) yearly event. Tiaohua Festival is usually held during the first lunar month. To determine the exact dates of the festival, organizers have to take many things into consideration like the Chinese lunar calendar, lucky animal days (e.g. the tiger and dragon are powerful, but snake and pig days need to be avoided at all costs), and lucky numbers (e.g. 8 means wealth but 4 means death). Organizers also need to make sure the dates don’t fall on the festival days of other communities. In this way, people from nearby villages can attend the festival. Singing and dancing are the main activities of Tiaohua Festival. During the festival, the Miao people dress up in their traditional clothes and silver accessories (配饰) and celebrate the festival in memory of the heroes in their history. Yet, the most important part of the festival is the chance for young people to meet possible marriage partners — men play the musical instruments and women dance to the music in the flower area. If a man plays well, he will not only be praised by listeners but also win the appreciation from the girls. Nowadays, the festival has become a celebration event for the young to visit their parents. Other activities include competitions of climbing a flower-decorated pole, needling crafts and wushu. Each year, Tiaohua Festival attracts international tourists from all over the world. “We’re really amazed by the rich cultural scenes(场面)and the local people who are very welcoming,” a foreigner named Charlie says excitedly. 4. What do we know about the dates of Tiaohua Festival? A. They are not fixed. B. They are set by nearby villagers. C. They are often at the end of a year. D. They are different from the ancient times. 5. What can be inferred about Tiaohua Festival from Paragraph 3? A. It is attended by many musicians. B. It is celebrated for different purposes. C. It gradually develops into competitions. D. It is the most important to the Miao people. 6. Why is a foreigner mentioned in the text? A. To show the great scenes of the festival. B. To show humans share the same cultures. C. To show Tiaohua Festival attracts worldwide attention. D. To show Tiaohua Festival is popular in other countries. 7. In which part of a newspaper can we read this text? A. Lifestyle. B. Nature. C. Business. D. Culture. C Researchers did a 3-year study on millions of phones in 98 countries. They found that the global network of Android smartphones can be a useful earthquake early warning system. It can detect earthquakes and give users a few seconds to act before the shaking starts. Many countries use traditional earthquake early warning systems with sensor networks. But building these networks is expensive. Many places with frequent earthquakes don’t have them. However, these places have lots of smartphones with built-in movement sensors. Since Android phones take up 70% of the global smartphone market, researchers made the Android Earthquake Alert (AEA) system. “Although AEA is not always as fast as traditional systems, it can still detect small shakes during strong earthquakes,” says Allen, the study leader. Like traditional systems, the AEA system sends two kinds of warnings to phones after detecting an earthquake: • For earthquakes of magnitude(震级) 4.5 or higher, it sends “Take Action” warnings. These warnings catch users’ attention right away and remind them to take protective steps. • For areas that will feel shakes of magnitude 3 or 4, it sends “Be Aware” warnings. To test how well the warnings work, researchers collected voluntary answers from search engines. Results from about 15.5 million people showed that 87% of them felt shaking. Among them, 36% got the warning before the ground moved, 28% got it during the shaking, and 23% got it after. Now, researchers are working to improve the AEA system. “We can keep making earthquake detection better, and improve our ways to send effective warnings,” says Allen. In the future, Allen and his team hope to use the same information to make other tools to reduce disasters. For example, maps of ground shaking can help with emergency rescue after earthquakes. 8. What is AEA’s advantage over the traditional way? A. It has smarter sensors. B. It costs less money. C. It sends earlier warnings. D. It detects smaller quakes. 9. What decides the type of warnings? A. The result of the earthquake. B. The place of the earthquake. C. The magnitude of the earthquake. D. The reason for the earthquake. 10. What do Allen's words mean in paragraph 5? A. Technology can stop disasters. B. We need more earthquake research. C. Rescue tools need to be better. D. The warning system needs more improvement. 11. What is the purpose of this text? A. To introduce a warning system. B. To compare two kinds of alarms. C. To raise public safety awareness. D. To sell a disaster rescue tool. D For Australian cow farmer Jody Brown, the most frightening sign of drought (干旱) is the silence. Trees don’t move, and birds don’t sing. The long dryness (干燥) means her cows dropped from 1,100 in 2002 to about 400 now. Sometimes, there are no animals on her land at all. The green grass turned gray. The UN says global food production could fall 30% because of climate change (气候变化). In the worst case, almost 2 billion more people could go hungry. Facing this problem, farmers are trying to adapt (适应). On Brown’s farm, she tests new farming ways that work better in drought. She looks for new ways to take the place of traditional ones. At the same time, some companies are making new kinds of vegetables, like cabbages that can stand extreme weather. All over the world, farmers change crops and improve watering. Lucas Oliveira in Brazil cuts down half his coffee trees and plants corn and soybeans instead. Coffee crops were hurt by drought and cold, so he had to change. In California, Fritz Durst works to trap water (存水). He fixes pipes to hold rain. He also plants cover crops to make the soil rich and stop water from washing the soil away. The biggest problem for farmers is that they can’t get funds (资金) to make these big changes now. Monika Zurek from Oxford University says, “If we need to help millions of farmers, we have to work together. It’s a huge task.” 12. Why are the numbers in paragraph 2 mentioned? A. To show people want more food. B. To talk about the long dry weather. C. To say food supply is not safe. D. To show the bad results of climate change.​ 13. What do farmers do to face the problem? A. Try new farming ways instead of old ones. B. Keep using traditional ways. C. Make new kinds of vegetables. D. Use more agricultural chemicals. 14. How does Fritz Durst in California fight drought? A. He plants more coffee trees. B. He studies the earth carefully. C. He uses ways to catch and hold rainwater. D. He covers his crops to keep them warm.​ 15. What is the most important thing for farmers to change their farming ways? A. Better watering systems. B. Money support. C. Solving climate change. D. Ways to stop floods. 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。 Amazing Benefits of Listening to Music If you love listening to music, you're in good company.

There was no school to go to, and it cost too much to hire a person to take care of us when my parents worked. We didn’t live near grandparents. There were no cousins next door, no aunts or uncles in the neighborhood to go to. So it was just the two of us. “You hear that?” my brother asked me. “What?” I said. “The ice-cream truck.” I listened. And there it was. That tinny little sound twinkling somewhere nearby. When you hear an ice-cream truck on your street, it means that someone has thought of you. It means that someone thinks you deserve something good in the world, and you don’t have to imagine that for yourself all by yourself. That day, the ice-cream truck came to our street. I put the chain down of the door and opened it. I took my brother and we ran outside to the curb. The sound of the ice-cream truck was so loud, so close. The cheerful melody drifted in the warm air, making every kid on the street excited. More and more kids began to gather around the truck. One by one, they bought their favorite ice cream. Laughter and chatter filled the street as they happily licked their cold treats. My brother and I stood to the side, watching longingly. Our eyes were fixed on the colorful ice creams, and we swallowed quietly. After the last child got his ice cream, my brother suddenly sobbed (抽泣) beside me. “I want a bite too,” he said. But we didn’t step forward — my pocket was completely empty. Suddenly, the ice-cream truck stopped for us. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Until the last bit of sweetness melted in our mouths, we slowly went home. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 塔地一高2025-2026学年第二学期高一期中考试 英语试卷 考试时间：120分钟 满分：150分 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.

(跳花节通常在农历正月举行。为了确定节日的确切日期，组织者必须考虑很多因素，比如中国的农历、幸运动物日（例如，老虎和龙很强大，但无论如何都要避免蛇和猪日），以及幸运数字（例如，8代表财富，4代表死亡）。组织者还需要确保这些日期不在其他社区的节日。)”可知，跳花节的日期不是固定的。故选A。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三自然段“During the festival, the Miao people dress up in their traditional clothes and silver accessories(配饰)and celebrate the festival in memory of the heroes in their history. (在节日期间，苗族人身着传统服装和银饰庆祝节日，以纪念他们历史上的英雄。)”可知，跳花节对苗族人来说是最重要的。故选D。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Each year, Tiaohua Festival attracts international tourists from all over the world. “We’re really amazed by the rich cultural scenes(场面)and the local people who are very welcoming,” a foreigner named Charlie says excitedly. (每年，跳花节都会吸引来自世界各地的国际游客。一位名叫查理的外国人兴奋地说：“我们对这里丰富的文化景观和热情好客的当地人感到非常惊讶。”)”可知，提到外国人的目的是展示跳花节举世瞩目。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一自然段“Tiaohua Festival is a main festival of the Miao people in Guizhou Province, China. (跳花节是贵州苗族的主要节日。)”以及第三自然段“Singing and dancing are the main activities of Tiaohua Festival. During the festival, the Miao people dress up in their traditional clothes and silver accessories(配饰)and celebrate the festival in memory of the heroes in their history. (歌舞是跳花节的主要活动。在节日期间，苗族人身着传统服装和银饰庆祝节日，以纪念他们历史上的英雄。)”可知，本文主要介绍了中国贵州苗族的主要节日——跳花节。这关于中国文化，因此我们可以在报纸的“文化”部分阅读到它。A. Lifestyle生活方式；B. Nature自然；C. Business商业；D. Culture文化。故选D。 C Researchers did a 3-year study on millions of phones in 98 countries. They found that the global network of Android smartphones can be a useful earthquake early warning system. It can detect earthquakes and give users a few seconds to act before the shaking starts. Many countries use traditional earthquake early warning systems with sensor networks. But building these networks is expensive. Many places with frequent earthquakes don’t have them. However, these places have lots of smartphones with built-in movement sensors. Since Android phones take up 70% of the global smartphone market, researchers made the Android Earthquake Alert (AEA) system. “Although AEA is not always as fast as traditional systems, it can still detect small shakes during strong earthquakes,” says Allen, the study leader. Like traditional systems, the AEA system sends two kinds of warnings to phones after detecting an earthquake: • For earthquakes of magnitude(震级) 4.5 or higher, it sends “Take Action” warnings. These warnings catch users’ attention right away and remind them to take protective steps. • For areas that will feel shakes of magnitude 3 or 4, it sends “Be Aware” warnings. To test how well the warnings work, researchers collected voluntary answers from search engines. Results from about 15.5 million people showed that 87% of them felt shaking. Among them, 36% got the warning before the ground moved, 28% got it during the shaking, and 23% got it after. Now, researchers are working to improve the AEA system. “We can keep making earthquake detection better, and improve our ways to send effective warnings,” says Allen. In the future, Allen and his team hope to use the same information to make other tools to reduce disasters. For example, maps of ground shaking can help with emergency rescue after earthquakes. 8. What is AEA’s advantage over the traditional way? A. It has smarter sensors. B. It costs less money. C. It sends earlier warnings. D. It detects smaller quakes. 9. What decides the type of warnings? A. The result of the earthquake. B. The place of the earthquake. C. The magnitude of the earthquake. D. The reason for the earthquake. 10. What do Allen's words mean in paragraph 5? A. Technology can stop disasters. B. We need more earthquake research. C. Rescue tools need to be better. D. The warning system needs more improvement. 11. What is the purpose of this text? A. To introduce a warning system. B. To compare two kinds of alarms. C. To raise public safety awareness. D. To sell a disaster rescue tool. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍研究人员通过对98个国家数百万部手机进行为期3年的研究，发现全球安卓智能手机网络可作为有用的地震预警系统，由此开发出安卓地震警报（AEA）系统。该系统与传统地震预警系统相比，利用安卓手机内置运动传感器，成本更低。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Many countries use traditional earthquake early warning systems with sensor networks. But building these networks is expensive. Many places with frequent earthquakes don’t have them. However, these places have lots of smartphones with built-in movement sensors. Since Android phones take up 70% of the global smartphone market, researchers made the Android Earthquake Alert (AEA) system.(许多国家使用带有传感器网络的传统地震预警系统。但是建立这些网络成本高昂。许多地震频发地区没有这样的系统。然而，这些地方有大量带有内置运动传感器的智能手机。由于安卓手机占据全球智能手机市场的70%，研究人员开发了安卓地震警报（AEA）系统。)”可知，AEA系统的优势在于成本更低。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段下文中对预警种类的介绍“• For earthquakes of magnitude(震级) 4.5 or higher, it sends “Take Action” warnings. These warnings catch users’ attention right away and remind them to take protective steps.(对于震级4.5及以上的地震，它发送“采取行动”预警。这些预警会立即引起用户注意并提醒他们采取保护措施。)”以及“• For areas that will feel shakes of magnitude 3 or 4, it sends “Be Aware” warnings.(•对于将感受到3级或4级地震的地区，它会发出“注意”预警。)”可知，地震的震级决定了预警的类型。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““We can keep making earthquake detection better, and improve our ways to send effective warnings,” says Allen.(艾伦表示：“我们可以持续优化地震探测工作，改进我们发出有效预警的方式。”)”可知，艾伦的话意味着预警系统需要更多改进。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Since Android phones take up 70% of the global smartphone market, researchers made the Android Earthquake Alert (AEA) system.(由于安卓手机占据全球智能手机市场70%的份额，研究人员研发了安卓地震预警（AEA）系统)”可知，文章围绕安卓地震警报（AEA）系统展开，介绍了其开发原因、与传统系统的对比、预警类型以及未来改进方向等，所以目的是介绍一个预警系统。 D For Australian cow farmer Jody Brown, the most frightening sign of drought (干旱) is the silence. Trees don’t move, and birds don’t sing. The long dryness (干燥) means her cows dropped from 1,100 in 2002 to about 400 now. Sometimes, there are no animals on her land at all. The green grass turned gray. The UN says global food production could fall 30% because of climate change (气候变化). In the worst case, almost 2 billion more people could go hungry. Facing this problem, farmers are trying to adapt (适应). On Brown’s farm, she tests new farming ways that work better in drought. She looks for new ways to take the place of traditional ones. At the same time, some companies are making new kinds of vegetables, like cabbages that can stand extreme weather. All over the world, farmers change crops and improve watering. Lucas Oliveira in Brazil cuts down half his coffee trees and plants corn and soybeans instead. Coffee crops were hurt by drought and cold, so he had to change. In California, Fritz Durst works to trap water (存水). He fixes pipes to hold rain. He also plants cover crops to make the soil rich and stop water from washing the soil away. The biggest problem for farmers is that they can’t get funds (资金) to make these big changes now. Monika Zurek from Oxford University says, “If we need to help millions of farmers, we have to work together. It’s a huge task.” 12. Why are the numbers in paragraph 2 mentioned? A. To show people want more food. B. To talk about the long dry weather. C. To say food supply is not safe. D. To show the bad results of climate change.​ 13. What do farmers do to face the problem? A. Try new farming ways instead of old ones. B. Keep using traditional ways. C. Make new kinds of vegetables. D. Use more agricultural chemicals. 14. How does Fritz Durst in California fight drought? A. He plants more coffee trees. B. He studies the earth carefully. C. He uses ways to catch and hold rainwater. D. He covers his crops to keep them warm.​ 15. What is the most important thing for farmers to change their farming ways? A. Better watering systems. B. Money support. C. Solving climate change. D. Ways to stop floods. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍气候变化影响农业及农民的应对措施。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“The long dryness (干燥) means her cows dropped from 1,100 in 2002 to about 400 now. Sometimes, there are no animals on her land at all. The green grass turned gray. The UN says global food production could fall 30% because of climate change (气候变化). In the worst case, almost 2 billion more people could go hungry.(长期干旱意味着她的奶牛数量从2002年的1100头减少到现在的约400头。有时，她的土地上根本没有动物。绿草变成了灰色。联合国表示，由于气候变化，全球粮食产量可能下降30%。在最糟糕的情况下，可能会有近20亿人面临饥饿)”可知，提到这些数字是为了展示气候变化带来的不良后果。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Facing this problem, farmers are trying to adapt (适应). On Brown’s farm, she tests new farming ways that work better in drought. She looks for new ways to take the place of traditional ones.(对这个问题，农民们正在努力适应。在布朗的农场，她测试在干旱条件下更有效的新农耕方式。她寻找新方法来取代传统方法)”可知，农民通过尝试新的农耕方式来取代旧方式应对问题。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“In California, Fritz Durst works to trap water (存水). He fixes pipes to hold rain. He also plants cover crops to make the soil rich and stop water from washing the soil away.(在加利福尼亚，弗里茨·德斯特努力存水。他安装管道来收集雨水。他还种植覆盖作物，使土壤肥沃，防止水土流失)”可知，弗里茨·德斯特通过使用收集和储存雨水的方法来应对干旱。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The biggest problem for farmers is that they can’t get funds (资金) to make these big changes now.(农民面临的最大问题是他们现在无法获得资金来做出这些重大改变)”可知，农民改变农耕方式最重要的是资金支持。 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。 Amazing Benefits of Listening to Music If you love listening to music, you're in good company.

There was no school to go to, and it cost too much to hire a person to take care of us when my parents worked. We didn’t live near grandparents. There were no cousins next door, no aunts or uncles in the neighborhood to go to. So it was just the two of us. “You hear that?” my brother asked me. “What?” I said. “The ice-cream truck.” I listened. And there it was. That tinny little sound twinkling somewhere nearby. When you hear an ice-cream truck on your street, it means that someone has thought of you. It means that someone thinks you deserve something good in the world, and you don’t have to imagine that for yourself all by yourself. That day, the ice-cream truck came to our street. I put the chain down of the door and opened it. I took my brother and we ran outside to the curb. The sound of the ice-cream truck was so loud, so close. The cheerful melody drifted in the warm air, making every kid on the street excited. More and more kids began to gather around the truck. One by one, they bought their favorite ice cream. Laughter and chatter filled the street as they happily licked their cold treats. My brother and I stood to the side, watching longingly. Our eyes were fixed on the colorful ice creams, and we swallowed quietly. After the last child got his ice cream, my brother suddenly sobbed (抽泣) beside me. “I want a bite too,” he said. But we didn’t step forward — my pocket was completely empty. Suddenly, the ice-cream truck stopped for us. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Until the last bit of sweetness melted in our mouths, we slowly went home. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Suddenly, the ice-cream truck stopped for us. We were frantic in our joy, screaming out what we wanted to eat, and for some reason the man in the truck made it for us. We got what we asked for and ate quickly, trying not to let the summer heat take it away from us. We licked our fingers, hands, wrists. And we laughed for no reason other than that we could. We hadn’t noticed the ice-cream truck leaving, and its loud music pulling away, growing distant. Until the last bit of sweetness melted in our mouths, we slowly went home. The sun still blazed overhead, but our hearts were filled with cool joy. That kind stranger needed no thanks, no reward. To this day, every time I hear the faint jingle of an ice-cream truck, I think of that hot summer day. A simple treat became the warmest memory, reminding me that kindness always finds its way to those who need it most. 【解析】 【导语】本文以夏日街头的冰淇淋车为线索，讲述炎热夏日我和弟弟没钱买冰淇淋，只能羡慕看着别的孩子享用，最后冰淇淋车司机主动停下，善意赠送冰淇淋，温暖了童年记忆的暖心小故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写 ① 由第一段首句内容可知，接下来可描写司机温柔询问情况，得知我们没有钱后，免费贴心送上两支冰凉冰淇淋，姐弟俩又惊喜又感动。 ② 由第二段首句内容可知，接下来可描写姐弟二人回味甜蜜暖意，铭记陌生人的善意，此后听到冰淇淋车铃声就会想起这份温暖。 2. 续写线索 冰淇淋车为姐弟停下——司机暖心免费赠送冰淇淋——姐弟开心品尝心怀感动——回味美好甜蜜——铭记善意珍藏温暖回忆 3.词类激活 行为类 ①吃：eat/swallow ②注意：notice/spot ③提醒：remind/warn 情绪类 ①快乐：joy/delight/pleasure ②感激：thanks/gratitude 【点睛】【高分句型1】We were frantic in our joy, screaming out what we wanted to eat, and for some reason the man in the truck made it for us.（运用了现在分词作状语和what引导宾语从句） 【高分句型2】To this day, every time I hear the faint jingle of an ice-cream truck, I think of that hot summer day. （运用了every time引导时间状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
