One day,the coach put up the new season's team list.My finger was shaking as looked for my name.Zac's name was on the list,but mine wasn't.I said to myself,"Ther 2024-2025学年度第二学期期末模拟考试初二英语试卷第5页（共12页) must be a mistake!"I felt heartbroken and couldn't believe I had bcen left out.Being on the Asteroids made me feel like I was falling behind. After joining the Asteroids,I was really angry.I kicked the ball hard and didn't care when my teammates passed the ball to me.Every time Zac waved at me,I just turned around.I was so upset. Everything changed during a Saturday match.The Stars were playing against Riverside United.I hid behind the stands and watched.They worked together so well.Zac could stop those passes that I couldn't.Then I remembered that while I was busy getting angry,Zac was practicing free kicks every Tuesday and Thursday. When the game ended,I waited at the exit,I said to Zac,"Your winning kick in the second half was so cool!"and I put up my hand.He gave me a high-five,which made me feel warm inside.He said excitedly,"Coach said you're getting much better now.If you keep training hard,we'll be teammates again." That night,I made a new plan and stuck it on my wall:more practice,more time.I realized being on the Asteroids was not a punishment.It was a chance for me to grow.I've learned that getting angry won't help you succeed.True success comes from continuous effort,not just wishful thinking or expecting things to fall into place without hard work. 36.Why did the writer feel heartbroken?

"The appearance of pcople gcncrally leads to certain common assumptions ()We also know that thesc assumptions can influence real-life behaviors.Physically attractive people geerally get more good comments(评价）than less attractive people,”Marine Rougier.a researcher in Belgium,said.In scientific circles,this is known as the "halo effect",and it shows that people usually thiuk that attractive people have better personality. But in today's digital age,first impressions are often formed online,where photos can be changed using digital tools like filters ()So,can we still trust our first impressions when images(图像)can be so easily changed? in a recent study.Rougier and her colleague,Jan De Houwer,showed participants photos of people with different levels of charm.Participants formed first impressions, but then were told that the photos might have been edited (to make the people look more or less beautiful.Surprisingly,even after knowing this,participants still kept their first impressions.But in a following study,when participants were shown how easy it is to edit photos,they were much more likely to change their minds. This"halo-update effect"shows that first impressions arc malleable.For example,if someone seems confident and social at first because of their eharm,people may think they're less confident when they find out that the person's photo was edited. What does this mean for us?It suggests that we can challenge first impressions with new information.So,if you've ever worried about leaving a bad first impression,don't be too nervous-people's opinions can change.Just be careful with editing your photos too much,as it could let others form an overly positive opinion of your personal or professional image. This research also tells us that looks aren't everything,and people's understanding of us can keep changing over time.Whether online or in person,the chance to change someone's first impression is always there. 40.Which of the following is true about"halo effect"? A.It means people with good looks usually get more good comments. B.It shows physically attractive people have a perfect personality in real life. C.It only happens in Belgium and has nothing to do with other countries. D.It makes people think attractive people are good at all the skills. 2024-2025学年度第二学期期末模拟考试初二英语试卷第7页（共12页) 41.What can you lcarn from the study in Paragraph 4? A.Participants formed their first impressions by reading different types of comments. B.Digital tools like filters playcd a key role in changing participants'opinions. C.First impressions were the same after participants knew the photos might be cdited. D.Knowing why the images were improved made many participants change minds. 42.What does the underlined word "malleable"in paragraph 5 mean? A.wrong. B.important. C.meaningful. D.changeable. 43.What's the passage mainly about? A.How first impressions can be changed in the digital age B.Why we form different impressions on the same person. C.The pow'er of halo effect on leaving a good impression. D.The importance of changing people's first impressions. 六、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。（共10分，每题2分） Have you ever felt like studying is a bit boring but watching someone else study makes you want to join in?You're not alone."Study with Me"Is a new way you can try The basic idea behind it is that watching someone else study motivates (us to do the same.

The theater effect happens when one person tries to do bettcr,forcing others to follow. In the end.cveryone works harder,but no one truly benefits.Imagine watching a movie-if the people in front stand up,those behind must stand too.Finally,everyone is standing,but the vicw remains the same. A well-known experiment at Stanford University tested this idea.Researchers invited 200 pcople to bid (for a $100 bill under special rules:the highest bidder wins the bill but must pay their bid,and the sccond-highest bidder also pays their bid(but wins nothing). A1 first,bids were small,but as the price neared $100,people refused to stop.Some even bid more than $100 just to avoid losing their earlier bids.This behavior shows that once competition begins,people realize that it's hard to stop competing,even when it no longer makes sense The theater effect comes from early human survival instincts ()Back then,the dopamine system(多巴胺系统)in our brain made us feel good about short-term success, like catching food.because it ensured survival.Today,this same system drives us to aim for victory in compctitions-cven when the results are meaningless.However,modern life is different.Today,while basic needs are no longer a big problem for us,we should learn to think clearly. Then how can we stop this kind of useless competition?First,we should know that we don't need to win all the time to prove our value.Real growth means doing better than before,not better than others.Second,we should take a moment to ask ourselves,"Are we doing it because we truly enjoy it,or just bccause we are afraid to be left behind?"Another important point is to aim for meaningful goals,not just to win.Focus on what truly matters, and feel peace in your heart-that is how we find real happiness. So next time you feel pressured to "stand up",just because others do,ask yourself:Is this really the best choice for me? 2024-2025学年度第二学期期末枳拟考试初二英语试卷第11页（共12页） 58.The writer probably agrees that A.following others is a safe way to avoid making wrong choices B.it is smart and helpful to stop and think before joining in a competition C.winning against others in competitions is a good way to show your value D.the dopamine system encourages beneficial competitions in modern society 59.What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage? A.To introduce research findings on over-competition. B.To explain how the theatre effect stops personal growth. C.To advise readers to make choices that truly suit themselves. D.To encourage people to care less about short-term success nowadays (二)阅读下面情境，结合文章，帮助Emil山y分析问题并给出具体建议。 Emily is a middle school student.Her class needed to work in groups and give a short report for a grade.The teacher said a simple talk with clear ideas would be enough,and that using a PowerPoint didn't mean they would get a better grade.Emily's group planned to just speak. But the first group used a PowerPoint with videos and music to make their report perfect,and the second group followed.After that,Emily's group felt they had to do more, too.They didn't want others to think they were lazy or bad.
