Some other people are just curious about foreign cultures. Whatever your reason may be, the best foreign language software around will certainly help you pick up the language in a few weeks. You will be able to speak fluently and understand the language clearly as well. Tell Me More This software is widely used in US schools, and it is believed to be the best foreign language learning software around the world. It offers instructions for learning Arabic, Chinese, Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese and Spanish. However, the software does not come cheap as it costs around $ 250. Talk Now If you are looking for cheaper language learning software, then this is just the suitable choice for you. This software will cost you around $40, and even though it is not as useful as Tell Me More, it is still very good software for the purpose. The disadvantage is that there is a clear lack (缺少) of interactive (互动的) activities for users so it does not result in fluency. Instant Immersion This software supplies learning material for up to 35 different languages, and it is widely considered as the best software for learning Spanish as well. It will cost you around $ 30, and this is a very reasonable price for such a piece of highly recommended and loved language learning software. The learning courses are highly interactive, and the ever present speech recognition (语音识别) feature ensures that you are getting the pronunciation right when you speak. Kid Speak This is a kind of foreign language translation software that you can make use of, and it will cost you around $ 30. So it is safe to say that the level of performance will be similar to that of Talk Now. This software is designed more for children to use for interesting videos. 21. What can we know about learning a language from Paragraph 1? A. Different people have different purposes. B. It is unnecessary to talk with the natives. C. Understanding foreign cultures is the key. D. Using software is the most effective way. 22. What is the disadvantage of Tell Me More? A. It has no interactive activities. B. It costs much more than the others. C. It is short of language learning methods. D. It provides no interesting videos for children. 23. Which of the software best suits users with poor pronunciation? A. Kid Speak. B. Tell Me More. C. Talk Now. D. Instant Immersion. B Every day as the sun rises, Ma Hongyi, a 66-year-old farmer, can be seen patrolling (巡逻) Yuncheng Salt Lake with his dog in Yuncheng city, North China’s Shanxi province. Ma still remembers the day when he first saw two big pink birds walking through the water. “I had never seen such pretty birds. They were even taller than me, with long wings,” Ma recalls. He was later told that the birds were flamingos (火烈鸟), which were listed on the International Union for Protection of Nature’s red list of endangered species in 2013. From that day on, Ma started his second career as a volunteer to prevent human beings from interfering with the wildlife. “The birds are attracted by the good environment,” Ma says. “I will do my best to protect the lake so that birds can come here every year.” Yuncheng Salt Lake covers an area of 132 square kilometres and used to serve as a salt production base. As the country began paying more attention to environmental protection, an ecological (生态的) protection and development centre was set up in 2012 to carry out regular ecological protection and restoration (修复) of the lake. “The greatest value of the Salt Lake lies in its ecology, which should be properly restored and protected,” says Chu Xianghao, mayor of the city. The lake area hosts 292 types of wild animals, along with 782 plant varieties, some of which are newly recorded species in the country. After patrolling the lake as volunteer for over four years, Ma was paid by the local government to help with wildlife protection in 2019. “The lake’s ecology is getting better,” Ma says, adding that he looks forward to the arrival of the flamingos every year. “Some of them are my old friends,” he says. 24. Why does Ma patrol Yuncheng Salt Lake every day? A. To observe the flamingos closely. B. To come across the flamingos again. C. To serve as a keeper of the lake. D. To admire the scenery around the lake. 25. What does the underlined phrase “interfering with” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Sharing space with. B. Causing problems to. C. Bringing benefits to. D. Losing control of. 26. Which word can best describe Ma? A. Responsible. B. Creative. C. Honest. D. Humorous. C After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started eyeing the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing. Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, separate rooms for a person to use, often set up near living communities. Every four-square-metre room provides a treadmill (跑步机), an air cleaner, a mirror, a television and an air conditioner, and users can let down the curtains (窗帘) for privacy. When exercising, users can listen to music, watch movies and check emails by connecting to the Internet by the screen fixed on the treadmill. But there’s no shower. Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate a shared gym room by a smartphone app, book a room in advance and then need to scan a QR code (二维码) for use. A refundable deposit (可退还的押金) of 99 yuan is required, and users are charged 1 yuan every 5 minutes. The shared gym rooms are created by Misspao, a Beijing-based technology company founded in July. Within several months since it was founded, the company has already raised over 100 million yuan. However, the idea of the shared fitness experience is not totally new. Last December, the company VRUN set up shared treadmills in office and apartment buildings. The sharing economy is still becoming popular in China. According to Yicai Global, confident people are pouring millions into sharing start-ups. In March, the State Information Centre published a report which says that the total value of China’s sharing economy will see a yearly growth of 40% in the coming years, and it is expected to make a great contribution to the country’s GDP. 27. What makes the shared gym room different from the common one? A. Sharing open spaces. B. Providing free training courses. C. Holding one person at a time. D. Having some advanced equipment. 28. What do people need to do to use the shared gym room? A. Pay 100 yuan first. B. Book a room ahead of time. C. Have a shower before exercise. D. Let down curtains for privacy. 29. What is the author’s attitude towards China’s sharing economy? A. Doubtful. B. Unclear. C. Worried. D. Positive. 30. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To introduce shared gym rooms. B. To praise a technology company. C. To support the idea of sharing gym rooms. D. To tell the future of shared gym rooms. 第二节(共5小题;每小题3分;满分15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。 Becoming the best that you can be might seem hard, but you can do it with the following advice. _____31_____.

Sometimes the pain of running can have a magic influence on a runner. Throughout any given race, you are suffering. Your lungs feel like they're being squeezed (挤压) by something unseen. But it is in this pain that a great runner is created. My first cross-country coach told me that every race is run with patience and determination. I've carried this advice with me for hundreds of miles. I especially remember the 5 miles of running in one race, where his words encouraged me a lot. That day the weather was perfect. I and dozens of runners gathered at the starting line to do some last-minute preparations for the running. Then, we lined up and got ready to start. There was a brief moment before the gun gave a signal of running. In that moment of great stress, I determined to push myself to run as fast as possible, hoping to make my coach proud, who was waiting for me at the finish line. When the sound of "Bang" came up, we were off. Running between runners, I managed to work my way up in the first 400 meters and passed many racers on my sides. But out of good sportsmanship, we each said a "good job" or "keep up" to every person we passed. Although we were competitors, running was a connection we all shared. The first mile passed quickly in a feeling of excitement. It was not challenging in the beginning of the running. But I knew it would be harder and harder in the following miles. I made full use of the running skills that my coach had taught me. I checked that I was doing everything right, breathing in through my nose, keeping my hands relaxed and pumping (快速摆动) my arms. However, the shadow of tiredness danced before me. Anyway I tried to push it out of my mind. With time going by, the competition became fiercer. Every runner tried their best to run in order to gain a good place in the race. Audience along the track shouted and cheered us. 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。 Eventually， I reached the final mile. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Unfortunately, I suddenly fell down. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第 1 页 共 8 页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年高二下学期期中考试 英语·参考答案 第一部分 听力 1-5 ABACA 6-10 CBCCB 11-15 BAACB 16-20 CBCAB 第二部分 阅读 【答案】21.

It was then that I felt extremely tired and sweat fell down my face. Many runners in the race had fallen behind, but I refused to be one of them. Instead, I chose to pump my legs a little faster and push myself a little harder. As the last half mile was near, the number of people along the track increased. Around the next corner, I could see my coach waving to me in great excitement. I tried to run faster. Unfortunately, I suddenly fell down. I felt great pain and discouraged. Just at that moment, the audience shouted, "Come on, girl!” "Watch out!” "Keep up!” Meanwhile, a runner behind me came to me and gave me a lift. I was really grateful and encouraged. I stood up and ran for the final 400 meters. When I finally sailed over the finish line, I nearly cried with relief. I won the third place in the race. My coach was proud of me and I felt great too. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
