The Students’ Union 第二节（满分25分） Just then, Margaret noticed the situation and walked over. Kneeling down beside Lily, she asked gently, “Nervous?” Lily nodded, tears in her eyes. She smiled warmly. “I used to be terrified of heights too,” she whispered. “But someone gave me this — a bravery sticker. Hold it, and you can do anything.” She handed Lily a shiny sticker. “How about wearing it and just taking one tiny step? Your family is right beside you.” Lily looked at the sticker, then at her parents and Ethan, who nodded encouragingly. Hesitantly, she held the sticker in her hand tightly and gave a shaky nod. With the small sticker in hand, Lily stepped onto the skywalk with her family. Her legs shook at first, and she held her mother’s hand tightly. But as Ethan pointed to the breathtaking canyon below, she dared to glance down. The golden light flooded the vast canyon walls. “Look, Lily, you did it!” Ethan cheered. A smile finally broke across her face. They took the family photo right there, all four of them laughing against the glass. Later, Lily whispered to Margaret, “The sticker really worked.” And Margaret winked, “I knew it would.” 【听力材料】 Text 1 W: Good evening, King’s restaurant. M: Hello. I’m ringing about the position you advertised on the newspaper. I want to know more about it. W: Sure. It’s a part-time waiter position on weekends. If you are interested, we could arrange an interview for you. Text 2 M: Why are you so late, Tina? It’s already 9:30. You should be here at 9:00. W: Sorry, sir. The traffic was really heavy today. The bus ride took me 45 minutes, while it only takes 15 minutes normally. M: Alright. Go ahead to your seat and get ready for class. Text 3 W: Honey, I heard Mike would move away. M: What? He is such a good neighbor. We get along well with each other. I’ll miss him. W: Yeah. Let’s prepare a gift for him. Text 4 M: Do you think we’ve missed it? The lady said the bank was just three blocks down, right across from the cafe. W: Let’s go and ask the policeman standing in front of the bookstore. Text 5 W: If I were you, I’d drive to work every day. The journey is really long and tiring. You could also take the subway if you don’t want to drive. M: Well, I prefer riding to my company. It gives me a good chance to exercise and relax. Text 6 M: Good morning, Mrs. Leary. I’d like to sign up for some after-school activities. Could you tell me more about them? W: No problem. Well, we’ve divided them up according to themes. For example, all the math and science clubs are in the student center. M: What about art and music groups? W: Art and music clubs are by the playground. The sports club used to be there too, but now it is near the gym hall. You can sign up any time today, but remember to finish your final decision before tomorrow noon. M: Thanks! Mrs. Leary. Text 7 M: Carrie, I just checked your English midterm result and you only got a D. I really didn’t expect this. W: It’s not as easy as it sounds. The class includes heavy book readings, written reports and regular essay writing tasks. M: If you perform so poorly in English, how can you possibly get admitted to an ideal college in the future? W: I’m buried in piles of homework lately. I can hardly keep my personal life, school studies and part-time job in balance, which makes me feel extremely stressed. M: Okay, honey. I apologize for being angry just now. I only hope you can keep up with your studies. Your mom and I will give you full support whenever you need it. W: There’s no need to be worried. I still have enough time to improve my grade later on. M: I believe you are already doing your best. Text 8 W: Hi, Tom. Are you going to enter the school English Poetry Competition next Friday? M: I haven’t made up my mind yet. I heard the rules are strict, and many top students will take part. W: Right. Participants must choose classic traditional English poems, not modern ones. And the school doesn’t accept poems written by students themselves. Each recitation must stay within time limits. M: Could you tell me what the judges value most? W: Judges pay attention to pronunciation and emotional expression. Proper gestures are allowed, but anyone who looks at the note on stage will lose marks. Long unnecessary pauses are also forbidden. M: It sounds really challenging. I still need time to consider whether I will join in the competition. W: Take your time. If you prepare well, you will surely have a good chance to perform wonderfully. Text 9 W: Hi, I’m going on a long train trip next week, and I need a book to take along. Would you like to help me find something? M: Yes. What do you usually enjoy reading? W: I’m into classic novels with strong female leads. I’m fed up with stories that only focus on male characters. I want something light and with a happy ending. M: Where are you heading? Sometimes it’s nice to read a book about the place you’re going to visit. W: England. M: Then you might like Jane Austen. Her works are full of wisdom and humor. Or you could try Emily Bronte. She’s another classic writer. Her novels are deeply emotional. They’re not exactly light reads, but they feature really powerful female characters. W: I like both Austen and Bronte. I didn’t consider mystery novels. Are they scary? M: Not at all. They focus more on solving cases rather than violent murder details. I can suggest a few titles. W: Sounds great. I just hope I’ll have time to finish it and return it on time. Text 10 Christopher Porter was attracted to Wordle, a popular online five-letter spelling game that rose to fame in late 2021. He enjoyed playing it daily and sharing his scores with friends. However, he couldn’t play with his five-year-old daughter, Astrid, who was just learning letter sounds and too young for the game. Porter hoped to create a kid-friendly version. His friend David Hirtle had the same trouble playing Wordle with his children. They worked together and invented Spellie, which is similar to Wordle but has three difficulty levels. They developed it in their spare time. Spellie has been available to the public for days. It began with 100 users, mainly their friends and family. After receiving media coverage, it soon gained widespread popularity. Spellie is free to play and completely ad-free forever. Since Porter and David have stable full-time jobs and the website costs very little to run, they have no need to profit from the game. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高二 英语 2205G201 班级 ______________姓名 ______________ 本试卷共12页，满分150分。考试用时120分钟。 注意事项： 1．答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、班级和考号填写在答题卡上。 2．作答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目选项的答案信息点涂黑；如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案。非选择题必须用黑色字迹钢笔或签字笔作答，答案必须写在答题卡各题目指定区域内相应位置上；如需改动，先划掉原来的答案，然后再写上新的答案；不准使用铅笔和涂改液。不按以上要求作答的答案无效。答案不能答在试卷上。 3．考生必须保持答题卡的整洁，考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 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.

Besides many incredible attractions， these landmarks also have great work exchange opportunities, for those looking to save money or have a unique cultural experience. Golden Gate Bridge, USA Known for its rust-red color, the Golden Gate Bridge was built in the 1930s and was the tallest and longest suspension bridge in the world. The bridge is one of the best iconic places in San Francisco, and you can stay in the city on a budget by volunteering at a yoga studio. Banff National Park, Canada Home to alpine peaks, glacial lakes, and the famous Icefields Parkway scenic drive, Banff is a heaven for lovers of natural beauty and adventure. A cool work exchange to try is this family-run ice cream shop in Twin Butte, just 3.5 hours away from Banff National Park. Stay in a local family home and help with running the shop as well as animal care. Balboa Park, USA Balboa Park is one of the most-visited tourist attractions in San Diego, USA. The park is full of history, architecture, art and beautiful nature. You could spend an entire day exploring this core of culture in San Diego. Any experienced videographers visiting San Diego should consider this work exchange! The Great Pyramid of Giza, Egypt As the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and the only one that remains well-preserved today, the Great Pyramid of Giza is a truly fantastic sight.

Burned out from work, I found life had become flat and that I desperately needed something to shift my focus. One night I came across a website recommending scuba (水肺) diving lessons. I hadn’t ever thought much about the idea of diving before, but its complete unfamiliarity fueled my interest; I decided to give it a shot! I had my training lessons at an indoor swimming pool. After completing the courses, I felt a sense of great satisfaction and achievement for overcoming the initial fear and discomfort of breathing underwater. Knowing I hadn’t yet experienced what real scuba diving is all about, I spent hours researching where the best places to dive were. And then I was on an airplane to Belize. Less than 24 hours after my arrival, and minutes into my first ocean dive, I was literally diving head first into the deep end, finding myself 80 feet underwater. It’s the kind of extraordinary water having such great visibility that you can see clearly for hundreds of feet around you. Within minutes our 4-person dive group was surrounded by numerous nurse sharks, a moray eel (海鳗), large groupers and sea turtles. I was madly in love with scuba diving. As we reached the bottom a lone nurse shark swam right under me. More started to arrive. Just as I was shooting pictures of the action and not paying attention to anything or anyone else around, I looked up to see a bright green threatening face headed straight toward me. He wasn’t the least bit shy. He had apparently never heard of personal space. After he decided to swim by me without causing any bodily harm, I was both relieved and excited. This will always be that one special dive that changed everything, and I get to watch it any time I find myself missing the water. 24. What did James gain from the diving training? A. Total freedom from work pressure. B. A new way to adjust the mood. C. An insight into the sea world. D. A sense of pride and contentment. 25. What can we infer about James’s trip to Belize? A. He made careful preparations in advance. B. He hesitated long before making the trip. C. He went there with professional trainers. D. He chose to dive in the deepest ocean. 26. Why did the author describe various sea creatures? A. To show the danger of deep ocean. B. To stress the richness of sea animals. C. To record this frightening experience. D. To express his strong fondness for diving. 27. What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph? A. Diving in Belize will stay popular. B. He has become a professional diver. C. The dive left a lasting impression on him. D. He no longer feels tired from work. C Many people believe that confidence comes from ability. In other words, if someone speaks with certainty, they must know what they are talking about. However, psychological research suggests that the opposite can also be true: individuals with limited ability may display surprisingly high levels of confidence while remaining largely unaware of their limitations. This phenomenon is known as the Dunning-Kruger effect. People with this cognitive bias (认知偏差) tend to believe they are far more capable than they really are. Because they know little about a subject, they often confound their limited understanding with real competence and remain unaware of how much they do not know. This idea was first examined by psychologists David Dunning and Justin Kruger. In a series of experiments, participants were asked to complete tests involving grammar, logical reasoning, and humor. After finishing the tasks, they were asked to estimate how well they had performed. To the researchers’ surprise, participants who scored in the lowest group consistently rated their performance much higher than it actually was. For example, those in the bottom 12% often believed they had performed above average. In contrast, participants who achieved high scores tended to underestimate their performance. According to researchers, this pattern can be explained by a “dual burden (双重负担).” The skills needed to perform a task well are also required to judge one’s own performance. When people lack these skills, they not only make more mistakes but also fail to assess their performance accurately. The Dunning-Kruger effect has important real-world consequences, as it discourages individuals from seeking feedback (反馈) or further study. To overcome this, one must understand that true confidence is built on accurate self-awareness. It is developed through continuous learning, actively seeking constructive criticism, and most crucially, by grounding self-assessment in measurable standards, such as test scores, recorded progress, or expert feedback, rather than relying merely on subjective feelings. This practice not only clarifies what one knows but also sharpens one’s ability to judge that knowledge. 28. What is a typical feature of the Dunning-Kruger effect? A. Precise self-judgment. B. Learning from real competence. C. Full awareness of personal limits. D. Overconfidence with weak ability. 29. What does the underlined word “confound” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Take. B. Exchange. C. Confuse. D. Combine. 30. What does the “dual burden” mainly show? A. Poor skills lead to inaccurate self-assessment. B. Talented people tend to overvalue their progress. C. People judge their performance with simple skills. D. High achievers often fail to see their own weaknesses. 31. What is a suggestion on dealing with the Dunning-Kruger effect? A. Making assessments regularly. B. Enhancing true self-confidence. C. Depending on personal opinions. D. Accepting professional feedback. D In 1915, a worried mother wrote to the United States Children’s Bureau to ask why her son was rejecting various foods. Could it be that he did not like them? The expert dismissed that idea and advised a visit to the doctor, believing his problem must be stomach trouble. After all, voluntary food rejection was almost unheard of in America at the time. Children ate what their parents put in front of them. Today American children have become the pickiest eaters in history. In a new book, Helen Zoe Veit, an associate professor at Michigan State University, strongly criticizes changes in adults’ behaviour and thinking over the past century that allowed picky eating to hijack (劫持) children’s diet. Before the 20th century, there was no such thing as “children’s food”. Youngsters had wild appetites. Like adults, they stuck to regular meals and naturally worked up a good appetite. However, the rise of snacking has changed this, becoming one major reason behind children’s picky eating at mealtimes. Two other things changed in the past century. One was attitudes concerning children’s independence to make their own food choices and new views on the downside of forcing children to eat certain things. A mid-20th-century study found kids could make healthy food choices on their own. Widely introduced in parenting books, the research persuaded parents to give children more freedom in food selection. The other thing was the rise of supermarkets and processed foods. By the 1960s, supermarkets offered far more goods than before. Advertisers began targeting children directly for the first time. In the old days, children ate what their mothers bought; now the kids tell their mothers what to buy. Ms Veit blames adults for treating food differently from toothbrushing. Children may say they do not want to brush, but adults overrule them because they know toothbrushing is beneficial to them. Why not so with spinach (菠菜) or fish? Her book, Picky, includes suggestions for fighting picky eating at home, such as feeding the whole family the same meal and continuing to introduce a food repeatedly even after a child has rejected it. 32. What can we infer about past kids from paragraph 1? A. They were seldom picky. B. They were more dependent. C. They had little to eat. D. They usually had stomachs. 33. How did the mid-20th-century study influence people? A. It reduced kids’ interest in snacks. B. It gave kids more say in food choices. C. It changed people’s view on nutrition. D. It misled parenting books into false ideas. 34. What does Ms Veit blame parents for? A. Setting strict rules on daily life. B. Failing to value healthy meals. C. Allowing kids to skip toothbrushing. D. Giving in easily to kids’ food likes. 35. What’s the best title for the text? A. A Mother’s Advice on Kids’ Eating B. The Changing Taste of American Food C. Why American Kids Become Picky Eaters D. A New Book on Healthy Family Meals 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。 Science fiction has long been dismissed as mere entertainment for dreamers. 36 From satellite communications to voice assistants, countless technologies that first appeared in sci-fi novels and films have eventually become part of our everyday lives. Here are four classic sci-fi predictions that have successfully turned into reality. 37 When Arthur C. Clarke proposed the concept of geostationary satellites (地球同步卫星) for global communication in 1945, the idea seemed wildly impractical. Today, thousands of active satellites orbit the Earth, making GPS navigation (导航), live television broadcasts, and high-speed internet available even in remote areas. What once required pure imagination now supports the basic systems of modern society. In the 1960s, the original Star Trek series featured crew members communicating through small, handheld devices. At the time, this seemed impossibly advanced. 38 These pocket-sized computers allow us to make video calls across continents, access the world’s information instantly, and navigate unfamiliar cities with digital maps. Facial recognition technology was once restricted to futuristic spy films, where computers could identify anyone in seconds. 39 From unlocking our smartphones to speeding through airport security checks and even paying for meals, this technology has quietly integrated itself into moments we barely notice. Early science fiction novels often described homes where residents could simply speak commands to control lights, music, and information. Today, this fiction has become so common that we rarely think about it. 40 Even today, science fiction continues to inspire real-world innovation. Who knows which of today’s imagined technologies will become tomorrow’s everyday tools? A. Now, it is everywhere in daily life. B. However, the truth is quite different. C. Now, voice assistants have made it happen. D. Today’s smartphones have made this a reality. E. Some technologies appeared much later than expected. F. Spacecraft floating above Earth were once pure fantasy. G. Many such ideas were initially met with doubt and criticism. 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。 I grew up before there were cellphones.

But neither do I think it 45 to take a hands-off attitude toward students texting friends while the poor teacher 46 . So I came up with a method. On the first day of class, I spoke to my students in a 47 , but firm way, “If I catch you using phones in class, call your 48 immediately and tell them that you love them.” When the rule was delivered in a caring way, most students accepted the rule, and yet there was always a(n) 49 . Paul was just the case. I was told he still used his phone. One day, I caught him checking his phone in class. He felt 50 at once. I reminded him of the rule. Surprisingly, he followed it and put his phone on speaker. When his mom answered, Paul 51 said, “I’m calling just to say, ‘I love you’.” Since then, there’s been a huge 52 in classroom phone use. 53 phone use in class is never easy.

While space exploration 56 (attract) global attention for decades, more than 80% of the ocean floor remains unexplored — a 57 (strike) fact, considering that oceans cover over 70% of our planet’s surface. The deep sea presents extreme challenges: freezing temperatures, complete darkness, and overwhelming pressure. While faced 58 these difficulties, scientists have developed advanced equipment capable of resisting conditions that would have been unimaginable a generation ago. Among their most exciting 59 (discovery) are strange creatures that produce their own light through bioluminescence (生物发光). China has been 60 (active) involved in deep-sea exploration. The manned submersible (潜水器) Jiaolong, 61 (name) after a mythical sea dragon, successfully reached the Mariana Trench in 2012. 62 (follow) this achievement, the Fendouzhe submersible set a national diving record of 10,909 meters in 2020, 63 accomplishment that placed China among the few nations to access the deepest parts of the ocean. Protecting the ocean’s health is as urgent as exploring it. That is precisely 64 the UN has declared 2021 — 2030 as the Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development. Scientists remain confident that continued exploration will lead to breakthroughs in medicine and climate science — provided that such efforts are carried out 65 (protect) the delicate ecosystems below. 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 假定你是校学生会主席李华，学生会计划打造校园英语文化墙，现面向全校学生征集英文作品。请你用英文写一则通知，内容包括： 1．征集目的和作品要求； 2．截止时间和提交方式。 注意： 1．写作词数应为80个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Notice 第二节（满分25分） 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 The Johnson family had been planning their trip to the Grand Canyon (大峡谷) for months. For 12-year-old Ethan, the iconic attraction — especially the famous Grand Canyon Skywalk, a glass platform that extends over the edge — was all he could talk about. He had watched countless videos online and practiced walking on a glass board his dad placed on the balcony (阳台). His younger sister, Lily, aged 9, had remained silent whenever the skywalk was mentioned, often changing the subject or pretending not to hear. On the morning of their visit, the family arrived at the canyon just as dawn broke. The air was cool and fresh, and the first rays of sunlight were painting the rocks in soft shades of orange and gold. Near the entrance to the skywalk, a kind-faced lady volunteer named Margaret was handing out maps and welcoming visitors with a warm smile. The view was so breathtaking that Ethan couldn’t wait to rush to the entrance, his heart pounding with excitement. But Lily stopped short. Her face turned pale, and she took a step back. “I can’t,” she whispered, her voice shaking. “I can’t step on that.” Their mother knelt (跪) down and held her hands gently. “Everyone gets scared sometimes,” she said softly. “We don’t have to go if you’re not ready.” Their father added, “It’s totally fine if you’re not ready, sweetheart. We’re proud of you for telling us how you feel.” But Ethan was deeply disappointed. He had imagined this moment for so long — the whole family standing together on the glass, looking down at the canyon far below, taking photos that would last a lifetime. “But we came all this way,” he said, his voice tight with disappointment. “You promised you would at least try.” Lily buried her face in her mother’s coat and began to cry, her small body shaking. The family stood there, stuck — one child eager to go, the other frozen with fear, time ticking away as more tourists lined up behind them. 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。 Just then, Margaret noticed the situation and walked over.
