盐城市康居路初中教育集团2026届初三年级第一次模拟考试 英语试卷 (卷面总分：120分 考试时间：100分钟) The rose lingered in the midsummer;the youth forget his path through his pen. 玫瑰留在了盛夏，少年闯荡于笔下。 一、完形填空(共15小题，每小题1分，计15分) 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从各题所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。 When I was a boy,my family had a tradition before Christmas.My dad would go to the 1 each year to pick out a small pine tree to be our Christmas tree.The air was 2 in winter and the forest stood silent under grey sky.After the holiday,he would take the tree outside and 3 it near the woods to decompose (腐烂).I would watch it all through the long winter with a little 4 as its green Pine tree leaves gradually turned brown and fell off.That small,dying tree seemed to 5 all the magic of the Christmas season.And I really wished it could have lived longer and 6 taller. Years later,as a young father myself,I spent one Christmas at my father-in-law's house and discovered something. 7 .Instead of cutting a pine tree down,he had dug one tree up—roots and all—and 8 it in a large pot filled with rich and dark dirt.He watered it patiently and 9 it throughout the Christmas season.Then,when the holidays ended,he replanted it 10 in his backyard,so he could enjoy it and watch it grow in the years to come.It taught me a 信 11 about love for living things and the beauty of patience. These days,I no longer cut down or buy 12 pine trees every year.My own Christmas tree is artificial( 人造的).I dislike cutting down trees only to celebrate festivals. 13 ,I enjoy looking at them standing quietly in the woods.Those pine trees standing in the woods are not just ordinary plants 14 silent witnesses of the passing seasons.They teach me to be kind to nature and hold love in my heart all the time. I have come to understand that true Christmas joy never comes from a cut-down tree.However,it lies in 15 _nature and cherishing every living thing.It makes the holiday season truly meaningful.

What is Migration? Migration is where people or animals move from one area to anot her,for example,from one country to another.Migration can be short-term or lifelong.It is quite common in nature and happens every year.Different birds have their own fixed migrating routes( 路线).

History of Yueyang Tower It was first built during the Three Kingdoms Period(220-280 AD).At the beginning,it was used as a high platform ( 平台)for army training.Later,it was called the Baling Tower after the name of a nearby city.During the Tang Dynasty(618-907 AD),Baling City was renamed Yueyang City and the tower became Yueyang Tower.The tower has been repaired and rebuilt many times over the years.The one we see today was completed in 1879 during the Qing Dynasty. The tower has three floors and is 25.35 meters high,with an area of 251 square meters.It is special because it is made completely of wood,with no nails or rivets( 铆钉).Moreover,instead of different kinds of hip roofs(屋顶)commonly seen in China,its roof looks like ancient helmets.Now,in China,it is the largest surviving ancient building that features a helmet roof. Cultural value of Yueyang Tower Standing on the tower,people can enjoy amazing views of Dongting Lake.So,it has long been a popular place for visitors and artists.Many famous poets in Chinese history,including Li Bai,Du Fu,and Bai Juvi,wrote widely read poems.However,none of them is as popular as the article,On Yuevang Tower( 岳阳楼记),written by Fan Zhongyan (989-1052 AD).Today,his famous words“To be the first to worry about the nation's troubles,and the last to enjoy the nation's happiness”encourage people to care more about the country and people than themselves,and do more good things for the nation. Yueyang Tower is widely known as one of the Three Great Towers south of the Yangtze River. There is no doubt that it is one of the treasures of traditional Chinese culture. ( )19.Where is Yueyang Tower located? ( ( )20.Which title can be put in the ▲ ? )A. B. C. D. A.Materials of Yueyang Tower B.Features of Yueyang Tower C.Roof Style of Yueyang Tower D.Art works of Yueyang Tower ( )21.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 mean?

The problem is that AI has become so realistic(逼真的). ②The researchers tested 125 people,including 36“super-recognizers”——people who are very good at remembering faces.All were asked to tell whether a face was real or made by AI.The pictures did not have any clear errors (错误).The average score of normal people was only 51%,which is only a little better than random ( 随机的)guessing.Super-recognizers scored 57%,a little better.Why does this happen? ③A key reason is that people depend on their experience too much.From the scores above,it was clear that people were just sure that they could tell real faces from AI-made ones.Why are people too self-assured?In the past,AI-made faces were easy to tell because of clear errors,like backgrounds that mixed into the hair.But today's AI has fixed such problems.Those clear errors have become far less common,making faces more real. ④Another reason is that AI technology is improving so fast that it's getting harder to tell.“You might now tell an AI face if you notice that it's ‘unusually balanced’or ‘too perfect’,"explained Amy Dawel from the research team."It's almost as if they're too good to be true as faces,"she says.However, AI is now making faces that are more natural and less perfect.So even this method is becoming not as useful as before because AI is getting better. ⑤These findings matter in real life.We can no longer depend on our eyes alone."For a long time, we've believed the people in the photos we saw were real,"says Dr Dunn.“That belief is now being questioned.”The team now wants to study people who are very good at telling AI faces apart and find out what their secret is. ( )23.How does the writer introduce the topic in Paragraph 1? A.By giving an example. B.By asking questions. C.By listing some numbers. D.By sharing a personal story. ( )24.What does the underlined word “self-assured”mean? A.proud of oneself B.shy of public attention. C.confident in oneself. D.careless about possible risks. ( )25.Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? D. ( )26.What is the best title of the passage? A.Why We Trust Our Eyes Too Much B.“Super-Recognizers”Beat AI C.The Improvement of AI Technology D.AI Faces or Real Human Faces? D Suddenly,there was a loud crash.Then someone screamed and a voice shouted,"Bring a towel quickly."The man in the grey suit was lying across the table.He was holding his face,which was red with blood.On the table there was broken glass. Someone asked in a loud voice,“What happened?Did he fall?”Several people were speaking at the same time."It's his heart,you know...”"He has been in and out of hospital for years ...”"...his head hit those glasses."The man was still lying across the table.Jennifer jumped up,and both she and Claire ran over to him. "We're nurses,"said Jennifer.“Can we help?”His face was deeply cut,bleeding heavily.A waiter ran up with a towel.Jennifer took it and held it to the cut.The man's mouth was open and he was making strange noises. "He needs a doctor.We'll have to get him to hospital,"Jennifer said.She turned to Claire and asked, “You came here in your car,didn't you?” "Yes.Let's take him to hospital,"Claire replied.They helped the man outside and put him in Claire's car.Jennifer jumped in beside him and they drove off.She was still holding the towel to the man's face. The blood was not coming so fast and he was beginning to feel a little better. "Where...where are we going?"he asked.“Are you taking me home?” "Just stay there and don't speak,"Jennifer told him.“You fell and hurt yourself.You'll be all right, but you must see a doctor.We'll be at the hospital in a few minutes." As soon as he heard the word “hospital”,the man tried to sit up."No,no,"he said angrily."I don't need to go to hospital.I'm feeling better now.Just take me home.And who are you?” "I’m a nurse,"Jennifer told him.“And you need to see a doctor.We're nearly there now.Just sit still and stop talking." But the man felt better and kept talking.He pulled Jennifer's arm and shouted,"I don't need a doctor. It's just a small cut.I'm fine.Take me home!”Jennifer didn't answer.Then he spoke softly,"Please listen. I don't need the treatment.They will keep me there because of my heart.I have an important meeting soon.Please stop the car.I will take a taxi home.” Soon,the car stopped at the door of the hospital.A nurse came to meet them.When Claire told her about the accident,Jennifer helped the man out of the car.He said something angrily to the nurse,but after a few seconds,he went with her into the hospital.Jennifer and Claire drove away. "What a difficult man!”Claire said angrily."No ‘Thank you for your help,'or 'You're very kind." "Some people never say thank you,"Jennifer said."Don't worry about it.Follow your heart."

However,over the past ten years,satellite pictures have shown a big change in the rivers.37. Now places like the Dazhangxi River,the Fenhe River,and the Yongding River are healthier than before. 38. In 2020,satellite pictures(on the left )of the Dazhangxi River showed factories and buildings right next to the water.By 2025,these structures(建筑物)were gone.People stopped using the riverbanks for work and plants began to grow again.In the Fenhe River area,the land was once fullof deep holes and very little grass.39.

Piggy Eats Watermelon from 1958 was the first paper-cut animation.In this creative short film,Zhu Baijie and the other characters came to life on screen just like shadow puppets.The film amazed people with bright colours and lively animation styles. Two years later,another important breakthrough came with the first ink-wash animated film, Baby Tadpoles Look for Their Mother:This short film was influenced by the famous artist Qi Baishi,and it looked exactly like a traditional ink painting.The film was very successful,and won several national and international awards. Besides traditional art techniques,Chinese animated films also show traditional Chinese culture.Ancient stories are a common theme,and it is no surprise that the much-loved characters from the novel Journey to the West often appear in animation.Havoc in Heaven from 1961 tells the story of the Monkey King,and is perhaps the most famous Chinese animated film.It mixes traditional Chinese painting techniques with the sound effects from Beijing opera. Today,Chinese animators continue to explore new methods of film-making.Films like Monkey King: Hero s Back were made with advanced ( 高级的)3D animation software.With the help of AI, film-makers are also bringing the heroes from classic Chinese stories into the 21st century. 回答下面5个问题， 每题答案不超过6个词。 41.How long is the history of Chinese animation? 42.
