B "Wormy!Wormy!Come here!"I'm 7 years old,arms wrapped around my legs,while a group of older kids teased me on the playground with the nickname that would haunt my entire chiidhood. The nickname came from my surname,Worman.Although it is pronounced "War-mon," my classmates preferred the literal version,"Worm-man."The teasing intensified after I rescued an earthworm (from being roughly cut in half by a boy.The kids must have felt clever connecting my name to the creature,but for me,it was embarrassing.From then on,I really hated my rare surname and the bullying that accompanied it. According to historical records,Worman actually originates from an old English term for a skilled craftsman.Some sources even link its origins to the kings of Mercia.While there don't seem to be any famous Wormans in recent history,we're a hardworking group, holding down jobs as butchers,painters and laborers in England since the early 1800s. I suffered through being a Worman as a child,so when Facebook came along in my teens,I saw it as a chance to reinvent myself.I went by Evelyn Rose-my pretty,delicate middle name that drew praise and compliments from those around me.I felt more confident than ever. After university,however,I became less critical of my surname.Meeting students from diverse backgrounds introduced me to surnames far more unusual than mine.Laughing with others about our unique names became a surprising source of connection rather than shame. Later,I learned that over 200,000 surnames have disappeared from England and Wales in the past century.While others vanished,mine survived.Worman might not be "pretty,"but it is memorable and resilient. Now in my early 30s,I have become fiercely protective of my identity.When my son was born last summer,my husband and I decided on a combined surname to honor both sides of his heritage."Worman"has survived centuries of history and my own childhood embarrassment;hopefully,it will now stand the test of another generation. 24.What is the reason for the author's childhood shame about her name? 高二英语试题第4页（共12页） A.It revealed her family roots. B It exposed her to peer teasing. C.It implied a humble social status D.It lacked her middle name's elegance. 25.Why did the author choose to use"Evelyn Rose"on Facebook? A.To hide her identity from strangers.2 B.To create a more desirable self-image. C.To honor her family's royal ancestors. D.To follow the trend of using middle names. 26.How does the author feel about her surname now? A.She views it with pride. D.She accepis it passively. C.She is confused about its origin.D.She fears its impact on her son. 27.What message does the story mainly convey? A.Childhood bullying shapes lifelong insecurities. B.Surnames reflect social status across generations. C.Changing one's name is key to building confidence. D.True confidence comes from embracing one's identity. C China's population is undergoing a significant structural change:it is shrinking and ageing.The total fertility rate-the average number of births per woman-has dropped to 1.1,well below the 2.1 required for population stability.After a brief rise in births in 2024, the lucky Year of the Dragon,the birth rate is likely to fall again.At the same time,the number of people over 60 is projected to increase from 300 million in 2023 to over 400 million by 2035,rising from one-fifth to nearly one.third of the population.This poses risks to China's economy,as fewer young workers will support more retirees.Yet,government planners think they have found a silver lining:the"silver economy". In 2024,China's State Council released a policy document to boost the silver economy and enhance elderly well-being.It urged businesses to invest in smart healthcare,anti- ageing products,and senior tourism.Local governments were also encouraged to improve services like meal deliveries and in-home care.These policies aim to tap into the growing demands of retirees,particularly the richest generation aged 50-60,who benefited from China's economic boom. Companies are adapting creatively.For example,Quantasing,an education firm,shifted focus to online courses for seniors,offering classes in calligraphy,meditation,and music.Its platform has attracted 120 million users,highlighting the potential of elderly-oriented 高二英语试题第5页（共12页） serviccs."Rctirces today have savings and time to enjoy life,"notes Tim Xie of Quantasing Yet challenges remain.Experts warn that many businesses rush into the silver economy without thorough research.Chen Gong of Peking University criticizes that"Many policies are shouting a lot but doing little,"stressing the need for stronger consumer protections against scams.Cai Fang,a demographer,emphasizes improving welfare systems to match rising elderly needs. While the silver economy offers economic hope,balancing commercial growth with genuine care for seniors will define its success.As China ages,ensuring dignity and security for its elderly remains a pressing task. 28.How does the author present the issue in the first paragraph? A By quotation an expert. B.By defining a concept. C.By giving examples. D.By providing figures. 29.What does the underlined phrase"tap into"in paragraph 2 probably mean? A.Give priority to B.Take advantage of. C.Make room for. D.Keep control over. 30.What does the example of Quantasing illustrate? A.The decline of traditional education models. B.Government-led investment in technology firms. C.Successful adaptation to elderly consumers'needs. D The popularity of online education among the youth. 31.What is the key to the success of the silver economy? A.Expanding the market for senior citizens. B.Relying completely on government support. C.Replacing human services with smart technology. D.Combining business with real concern for the elderly. D Climate change is reshaping our world in unexpected ways,from rising temperatures to disrupted ecosystems.Now,scientists warn that melting polar ice caps are even affecting how we keep track of time. A recent study in Nature reveals that the rapid melting of polar ice is slowing Earth's rotation ()As meltwater flows into oceans,it collects around the equator,the imaginary circle dividing the earth into two equal parts.The planet gets slightly "fatter" there,which makes Earth turn slowly,much like an ice skater slowing down by stretching 高二英语试题第6页（共12页） out her arms during a spin. A slower rotation means each day-the time for one full turn of Earth-gets a bit longer.As a result,the sun doesn't rise or set exactly when we expect,which poses a critical challenge to global timekeeping systems. Modern life relies on ultra-precise synchronization (across technologies. Financial markets,air traffic control,internet servers,and communication networks depend on perfectly aligned clocks.Even a tiny timing error could trigger chaos.To address this, scientists propose introducing a negative leap second by 2029.This would make clocks jump from 23:59:58 straight to midnight,skipping 23:59:59,so our devices can match Earth's actual rotation.Geophysicist Duncan Agnew from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography explained this in the Nature paper. However,this solution comes with risks.Unlike positive leap seconds (adding a second),which have been used since 1972,negative leap seconds have never been tested. Experts like physicist Judah Levine warn that software designed to handle time adjustments may fail.Past issues highlight the danger:In 2012,adding a leap second crashed airline booking systems,froze stock exchanges,and disrupted major websites like Reddit and LinkedIn. These events show how fragile our time-dependent world is,and climate change is making it even more challenging. 32.Which factor is responsible for Earth's slower rotation? A.Ice mass gathering at the equator. B.Meltwater moving to the equator. C.Atmosphere thickening at the equator.D.Ocean currents intensifying near the equator. 33.What can be learned about the proposed "negative leap second"? A.It may cause system failures. B.It is a widely accepted time solution. C.It caused a major system crash in 2012 D.It has been successfully tested since 1972 34.What is the author's attitude toward the effects of climate change on timekeeping? A Concerned. B.Reserved. C.Optimistic. D.Doubtful. 35.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A.The History of Leap Seconds B.Risks in Adjusting Global Clocks C.Climate's Surprising Test on Time D.Innovations in Timekeeping Technologies 高二英语试题第7页（共12页） 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。 You may have heard the word "composting,"but what does it mean?Composting is similar to recycling-it's disposing of organic food waste in a way that allows it to break down naturally instead of being buried in landfills.When you compost food wastes,they can be processed into nutrient-rich soil.It's a planet-friendly cycle.36 Research your town's rules Some large cities in the US-such as New York,San Francisco,and Seattle-have made it a legal requirement to compost,providing special bins where people can put their food waste.37.To find out more,search online for your town name,state,and the word“composting''. 38 "Green"waste such as fruits,vegetables,eggshells,and coffee grounds and "brown" waste like leaves,twigs,cardboard,and used paper plates are commonly accepted for composting.With an adult's help,check the rules for composting near you. Pick a spot to compost 39.You can keep it simple by using a mixing bowl where you can throw kitchen leftovers as you prepare meals.Be sure to cover the bowl with a plate to reduce odors and avoid attracting fruit flies.You can also buy a countertop compost container. Make it part of a routine To prevent your food waste container from overflowing,your family will naturally need to take it to the local drop-off site frequently.A weekly trip can easily become part of your routine.Choose a specific day for this task.This simple habit keeps your kitchen tidy. 40 A.Learn what to compost B.Choose a suitable method C.You can participate by following a few easy steps D Other towns may have a drop-off spot for compost E.More importantly,it also helps the environment significantly F.Always separate meat and dairy products from compostable items G.Decide what kind of container to use for compost and where you'll store it 高二英语试题第8页（共12页） 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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳 选项。 Juli Cobb,an art teacher from Albuquerque,was driving home after work.Her car 41 fuel and suddenly stopped in the middle of a busy road near a homeless camp under a freeway bridge.Feeling42,Cobb saw a man run toward her from under the bridge.To her relief,he43 asked if she needed any help.

When British58 (businessman)first came across the Chinese tea industry, they faced a significant cultural disconnect in naming habits.While Chinese traders referred to their 59 (competc)oxidized()tea leaves as red tea based on the reddish- brown color of the tea water,British traders named the same product as black tea because of the dark c(appea.,i the dried tea leaves.

Luckily,the Wilsons,my host family,did everything they could to help me settle in- driving me around,sharing meals,and even letting me use their kitchen when I missed Chinese food.With their warmth and support,everything seemed to fall into place. But at school,small moments felt bigger than I'd imagined.In our first literature class, we discussed a Hemingway story.Everyone jumped in actively,while I struggled to speak up.My desk-mate encouraged me,"Next time,just speak up."I nodded,forcing a bitter smile. And just like that,I found myself in another cultural trap,Mrs.Wilson's birthday dinner. At the table,I answered politely but kept mostly to myself.Mrs.Wilson noticed my silence- and gently asked,"You alright,sweet girl?You're so quiet tonight."My face reddened. Was my silence seen as cold,rather than polite? That night,restless and wide awake,I wondered if I needed to laugh louder,speak faster;or hide parts of myself just to feel I belonged.Questions flooded my mind,none with answers. A few days later,our teacher announced there would be a Culture Festival next week "You'll prepare a stand to share your own culture -food,crafts,customs...anything meaningful.You can not only display your culture but also make it interactive,allowing people to try new things,learn traditional skills or share stories and cultural symbols,"she said.The class lit up with excitement.I sat frozen,mind racing:how could I share my traditions in English?The thought made my stomach twisted().Yet,I gathered myself 高二英语试题第11页（共12页) with a deep breath and signed up.After that,I threw myself wholeheartedly into preparations,until the day finally came. 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。 At the Culture Festival,I stood behind my stand,nervous but ready. From that day on,my world here started to change. 高二英语试题第12页（共12页）
