Between the two choices, I strongly support adding 10 minutes of sports every day. To begin with, daily exercise helps us develop a long-term exercise habit. After sitting and studying for hours, a short break can refresh our brain and reduce pressure. Besides, it is time-saving and flexible. It will not interrupt our daily study schedule. Instead, it helps us keep a better balance between study and physical exercise. Therefore, I believe daily 10-minute sports activity is the best choice. Yours, Li Hua 范文二： Dear Editor, I’m writing to voice my opinion on our school’s plan to increase sports time. I prefer adding one more PE lesson every week rather than 10 minutes of daily exercise. Firstly, a full PE class allows us to take part in team sports and cooperate with classmates. It helps improve our teamwork and communication skills, which short daily exercise can hardly achieve. Moreover, we can receive systematic training and relax thoroughly in class. In contrast, ten minutes is too short for meaningful sports activities. In short, one extra PE class every week is more beneficial to us students. Yours, Li Hua 读后续写 That night, I went to visit my mother. Walking into her dimly lit room, seeing her asleep on the old sofa, and kneeling down beside her, I gently touched her gray hair. The moment she opened her eyes and recognized me, a warm smile spread across her tired face. It was at that moment that I recalled the old lady’s words: “I don’t have any family left.” My heart ached, thinking of how long my mother had lived alone, just like that woman. Not until that night did I understand how selfish I had been, always too busy to stop by. “Mom, I’m sorry,” I whispered, pulling her into a tight hug. Overwhelmed by guilt and love, I held her fragile body, feeling as if I were hugging the old lady once more. For hours, we talked about everything she had kept inside for years. The old lady’s words changed my life greatly. “You gave an old woman a little moment of joy” — it was this sentence that echoed in my heart like a gentle bell. Never before had I realized that a small act of kindness could mean so much. As soon as I left the hospice that morning, I made a silent promise to myself: never again would I rush past the people who needed me. From that night on, I visited my mother twice a week, bringing her favorite cakes and listening to her stories with a patient heart. And in my taxi, whenever I picked up an elderly passenger — someone who, like that old lady, had no one to talk to — I would turn off the meter and take the longer road. Only by slowing down have I learned that the shortest way is not always the best; sometimes, what truly matters is the love we stop to give. 听力原文 (Text 1) W: I heard you joined that book club that meets every Thursday. How’s it going? M: Actually, we switched to meeting at the new café downtown instead of the library. The atmosphere is much better for discussions. W: That sounds perfect. Coffee and books make a great combination. (Text 2) W: I’m planning to help at the animal shelter this weekend. They need people to walk dogs and clean cages. M: My teacher suggested I do community service to strengthen my college application. Mind if I join you? W: Of course! It’ll be more fun together. (Text 3) W: The injured person is bleeding from his arm. Should we call an ambulance? M: Yes, but first I need to stop the bleeding and keep him warm. Hand me that clean cloth from the first aid kit. W: Here it is. His breathing seems normal though. (Text 4) W: I need white roses for my daughter’s graduation ceremony tomorrow. M: I’m sorry, but Lisa who handles flower arrangements is off today. I can only do basic bunches. W: That’s fine. Simple white roses will be perfect. (Text 5) W: This dress is too long for the formal dinner next week. M: You could take it to my aunt’s shop. She’s been doing alterations for twenty years. W: That’s a great idea. I’d rather have it professionally shortened than try to do it myself. (Text 6) W: Welcome to our monthly art exhibition. M: Thank you. I’m looking for paintings that would work well in my living room. Something colorful but not too abstract. W: Perfect! The impressionist section over there has beautiful landscape paintings for $50 each. M: Those look wonderful. I’d like that sunset scene. That leaves me with $40 from my budget for something smaller. W: Excellent choice. Let me show you our collection of watercolor paintings. (Text 7) M: We’ve been hiking for three hours. Do you recognize this road? W: I thought I did, but these rocks all look the same. We might have taken a wrong turn at that fork(岔路). Don’t panic. I brought a detailed map of this area. M: Really? That’s fantastic! I was worried we’d have to spend the night out here. W: Let me take a look… I can guide us back to the main path, but we need to hurry. The weather forecast mentioned possible thunderstorms this evening. M: Okay, lead the way. I should have watched the signs more carefully. W: No worries. Stick close to me and we’ll be back at the parking lot within two hours. (Text 8) W: Welcome to our innovation fair. Would you like to see our latest smart home system? M: Sure. My wife sent me here to find something that could make our daily routine easier. W: This device controls lighting, temperature, and security from your smartphone. You can even program it to start your coffee maker. M: That sounds complicated. How long does it take to learn? W: Most people get comfortable with it in a few days. At first, you may find it difficult, but it becomes second nature quickly. M: The price seems reasonable compared to other smart home products I’ve seen at electronic stores. W: We’re offering a special discount for fair visitors today. M: I think this technology will completely change how people interact with their homes in the future. W: Absolutely. Smart homes are just the beginning. Soon, everything will be connected. (Text 9) W: As the new team member, you’ll be working the morning shift with me starting tomorrow. M: Thanks for the training. I’m eager to start working with this environmental organization. W: It’s challenging work. In this coastal region, we’ve seen significant changes over the past decade. M: Because of industrial development and population growth? W: Actually, both of those issues have improved recently. The main concern now is ocean pollution affecting our sea life. M: I’ve read about plastic waste harming dolphins in this area. W: Exactly. International shipping and local fishing industries contribute to this problem. We monitor the beaches and document the damage. M: What can we do to prevent further harm? W: We survey the coastline and collect data on pollution levels. We also work with local schools to educate children about ocean conservation. M: How long are our typical work periods? W: This first shift will be about four hours, but normally we work around six hours per day. M: I studied biology in university, so I’m looking forward to applying my knowledge practically. W: Perfect. Your academic background will be very helpful for our research projects. (Text 10) W: Hello everyone, I’m Sarah, and I’ll be your guide today at the City Music Hall. This concert hall was completed in 2005 after four years of construction costing $200 million. It’s home to the City Orchestra, our region’s main classical music group. The venue also hosts the Youth Orchestra and the Piano Society. There used to be a fourth group, the Jazz Band, but they stopped performing in 2020. Between 2020 and 2022, the Summer Music Festival also used this hall while their regular place was being fixed. This building serves many purposes, featuring both a main concert hall and a small performance room. The main hall can seat 3,200 people, though we’re planning to reduce this to 2,800 to improve sound quality. Originally called the Riverside Concert Hall when it opened, it was renamed the Cultural Arts Center in 2023 after receiving new funding. It got its current name in 2024. In 2007, this hall hosted the International Music Competition, and we’ve just been selected as a venue for the 2030 World Music Festival. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 荆州中学2025-2026学年高一下学期5月月考 英语试题 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，请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，并标在试卷的相应位置。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。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

These winners have made remarkable contributions to their respective fields, pushing the boundaries of human knowledge and understanding. Nobel Prize in Physics The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics to John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton. They employed physics tools to develop methods that paved the way for advanced machine learning. Hopfield created a structure capable of storing and reconstructing information, while Hinton invented a method that independently identifies data properties, vital for modern artificial neural networks. Nobel Prize in Chemistry In Chemistry, the focus was on proteins, vital for life. David Baker achieved the seemingly impossible by crafting entirely new protein types. Demis Hassabis and John Jumper addressed a 50-year-old challenge with their AI model that predicts complex protein structures, holding immense potential. Nobel Prize in Literature Han Kang, a South Korean author, won the Nobel Prize in Literature for her intense poetic prose (散文) addressing historical mental scars and exposing human life’s weakness. Her unique awareness of body-soul connections and her innovative style have made her a contemporary prose pioneer. Nobel Peace Prize The 2024 Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to Nihon Hidankyo, a grassroots Japanese organization of atomic bomb survivors. This is quite different from other awards given to individuals. It won the prize for its efforts to achieve a world free of nuclear weapons. The organization was formed by survivors of the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima (广岛) and Nagasaki (长崎) in 1945. 21. Whose contribution is significant for artificial neural connections? A. Geoffrey Hinton. B. Demis Hassabis. C. Han Kang. D. John Hopfield. 22. What assisted scientists in solving a half-century-old problem? A. AI model. B. Advanced machine learning. C. Crafting new protein types. D. Complex protein structures. 23. Which prize was awarded to a group? A. Nobel Prize in Physics. B. Nobel Peace Prize. C. Nobel Prize in Literature. D. Nobel Prize in Chemistry. B Frank Caprio is a well-known judge who has gained popularity for his caring and understanding approach in the courtroom. Born on November 23, 1936, Caprio serves as the Chief Judge of the Providence Municipal Court in Rhode Island, USA. His trials (审判) have been turned into a television program called “Caught in Providence”, which airs on local Fox stations and presents his work. Caprio’s decisions often reflect a mixture of legal strictness and human warmth. He is known for his merciful judgments and his ability to connect with the people before him. For instance, in one case, a 96-year-old man was brought before Caprio for speeding in a school zone. The elderly man explained that he was driving his 63-year-old son, who has cancer, to a blood test. After hearing the man’s story, Caprio responded with a deep understanding, highlighting the man’s contribution to his family at an advanced age. Judge Caprio has been called “the warmest judge” by his admirers because of his way of handling justice. His trials prove that the law can be applied with understanding and mercy, which has made him a beloved figure both in the United States and around the world. Another heartwarming example is that Caprio once canceled a double fine for a truck driver who hadn’t got a notice for a previous fine. After the case was dismissed (驳回), the driver shared that 20 years ago, as a lost teenager, Caprio had asked him about his future dreams during a trial, a question that marked a turning point in the driver’s life. Caprio’s story is not just about his role as a judge but also about how a single kind act can affect someone’s life. His way of working as a judge shows that justice can be done with sympathy and that sometimes a kind word can change a person’s path for the better. 24. What makes Frank Caprio popular? A. His appearances in a TV program. B. His ability to solve complex legal cases. C. His balance of mercy and justice in trials. D. His strict legal decisions in the courtroom. 25. Which word can best describe Judge Caprio in dealing with the speeding case? A. Tough. B. Generous. C. Passive. D. Flexible. 26. What lasting impact did Judge Caprio have on the truck driver? A. He inspired the driver to map out his future life path. B. He taught the driver the importance of obeying traffic laws. C. He eased the driver’s financial burden by canceling the fine. D. He encouraged the driver to take responsibility for his actions. 27. What message does Caprio’s story mainly convey? A. Every cloud has a silver lining. B. All things are difficult before they are easy. C. Never reject a good deed just because it is small. D. One person can go fast, but a group can travel far. C It started during yoga class. She felt a strange pull on her neck, a feeling completely foreign to her. Her friend suggested she rush to the emergency room. It turned out that she was having a heart attack. She didn’t look like someone of a heart attack. She exercised, did not smoke and watched her plate. But on reviewing her medical history, I found that her cholesterol level was sky high. She had been asked to have a cholesterol-lowering statin (他汀) medication, but she never picked up the prescription because of the scary things she had read about statins on the Internet. She was the victim of fake medical news. While misinformation has been the object of great attention in politics, medical misinformation might have an even greater body count. As is true with fake news in general, medical lies tend to spread further than truths on the Internet — and they have very real impacts. False medical information can also lead to patients experiencing greater side effects through the “nocebo effect”. Sometimes patients benefit from certain treatment or medication simply because they believe they will. The nocebo effect is the opposite: Patients can experience negative effects just because they expect them. This is very true of statins. In blinded trials, patients who get statins are no more likely to report feeling muscle aches than patients who get a placebo (安慰剂). Yet, in clinical practice, according to one study, almost a fifth of patients taking statins report side effects, leading many to discontinue the drugs. Silicon Valley needs to solve this problem. When human health is at risk, perhaps search engines, social media platforms and websites should be held responsible for promoting or hosting fake information. The scientific community needs to do its part to educate the public about key concepts in research, such as the difference between observational studies and higher-quality randomized trials (随机对照试验). Finally, reporters can do a better job of spreading accurate information. News sites are more likely to cover easily remembered observational studies than randomized controlled trials, perhaps because the latter are less likely to produce surprising results. Such coverage can overstate benefits, claiming for example, that statins could cure cancer; it can also overly stress potential risks, such as suggesting a misleading connection with a bad brain condition. 28. Why does the author mention the lady’s experience of a heart attack in the first two paragraphs? A. To introduce the phenomenon. B. To warn against a disease. C. To explain an established theory. D. To highlight the writer’s opinion. 29. Which of the following examples best illustrates the “nocebo effect”? A. You feel better after taking the medicine that you think will work. B. You feel faint after taking the medicine that you believe has side effects. C. You have a fever after taking the medicine even if you know it is harmless. D. You have a headache after taking the medicine even if the doctor says it’s safe. 30. According to the writer, what should reporters do? A. Spread more benefits than risks. B. Report as complete a story as possible. C. Educate the public about key medical ideas. D. Use as few social media platforms as possible. 31. Which of the following is the best title of the passage? A. Watch Out for Medical News B. Why “Nocebo Effect” Works C. Doctor Internet May Be a Liar D. Stand Up for Better Human Health D On any given night, countless teenagers share their anxiety and loneliness with AI chatbots. A survey published by Common Sense Media found that 72 percent of American teenagers have used AI chatbots as companions, with millions seeking “emotional or mental health support” from them. For many adolescents, these digital companions are popular because they are always available and never judgmental. However, this trend has raised serious alarms among experts. Research shows that when asked about self-harm, some chatbots have offered dangerous advice or failed to lead users to meaningful action. Operating in a “gray zone” between casual advice and professional therapy (治疗), these tools can sometimes provide unsafe guidance that might normalize harmful behaviors for teenagers. The risks are particularly high because the teenage brain is still developing. In regions governing impulse (冲动) control and emotional regulation, young people are more easily influenced and less equipped to judge the accuracy or safety of advice. This is one reason why their emotions can be so easily affected by digital platforms. Despite these concerns, AI chatbots show potential when specifically trained as digital therapists. For example, a study on “Therabot” showed significant reductions in depression among users. Yet, these findings from adults don’t necessarily apply to teenagers. To ensure safety, researchers suggest using strict standards to test whether a chatbot can distinguish between helpful and harmful responses. In recent tests, some AI models even performed better than trained professionals, but they still showed a tendency to rate potentially harmful advice too positively. Rather than a total quit, a middle path is needed. Experts call for a set of rules similar to those applied to medical devices, including age-appropriate safety standards and strict privacy protections. By acting now to set evidence-based standards, we can actively shape how AI supports teenagers’ mental health, rather than repeating the mistakes of unchecked social media. 32. What does the survey by Common Sense Media show? A. AI chatbots can treat depression effectively. B. Most teenagers use AI chatbots for entertainment. C. Teenagers prefer human friends to AI companions. D. A majority of teens seek emotional support from AI. 33. What can we infer about chatbots from paragraph 2? A. They function as professional medical tools. B. They are designed to replace human therapists. C. They might treat harmful behaviors as normal. D. They provide more accurate advice than humans. 34. Why does the author mention the teenage brain? A. To show how age affects brain development. B. To explain why teenagers are easily impacted by AI chatbot. C. To suggest that experts are seriously worried about brain health. D. To describe the physical changes of the teenagers’ brain. 35. What is the author’s attitude toward the future of AI in teen mental health? A. Objective. B. Negative C. Unclear D. Doubtful 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Strengthen Your Happiness Muscle We’ve all experienced the urge to avoid activities we know we’ll enjoy. When we’re feeling down, we might skip a birthday party or cancel a lunch date. However, doing so often makes us feel worse than before. 36 One proven strategy is to improve your reward sensitivity. Just as a muscle strengthens with exercise, our motivation to seek out happiness can be developed by training ourselves to notice and enjoy positive emotions. Here are some methods to help you strengthen it. 37 Begin by planning one activity per day that will make you happy or give you a sense of accomplishment. It can be as simple as treating yourself to a favorite snack, reading a few pages of a novel, or calling a friend. Being practical makes you less likely to put off these positive experiences. Savor your positive emotions Psychologists call the process of identifying and fully experiencing positive emotions “savoring” (品味). After enjoying a daily moment, close your eyes and recall the details of the experience. 38 This strengthens your memory of positive moments and increases your motivation to seek them out again. Expand your joy vocabulary Many of us struggle to label our positive emotions beyond “fine” or “good”. However, research suggests that finding more precise words to describe those feelings can strengthen them. 39 Imagine future successes If looking at your calendar causes anxiety, pick an approaching event and think of the best possible result. For instance, if you’re tired but have a workout planned with a friend, imagine yourself feeling energetic and proud after the class. 40 Using positive images can also prepare you for more cheering experiences. A. Plan small daily activities. B. Make a list of simple activities. C. Sharing your highlights with others can also strengthen bonds. D. Such images in your mind can increase motivation and reduce stress. E. So how do we break the circle and find the motivation to get out there? F. The goal is not just to remember how you felt, but to increase and experience the joy again. G. When reflecting on your day, try to use specific terms like “inspired”, “delighted” or “peaceful”. 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。 Simple habits can often bring the greatest peace to our troubled minds.

The festival falls on the fourth day of the sixth lunar month, 56 (last) three days. Naadam is represented by three events: horse racing, wrestling, and archery. On the first day, I set off early with my friend Burin. I saw many people 57 (dress) in fancy Mongolian robes. Burin told me that Mongolians travel every year from near and far to attend the festival, just as their ancestors 58 (do) for centuries. After the opening ceremony, the wrestling competition began. Unlike Olympic wrestling, the Mongolian version has no rounds and wrestlers are not separated 59 weight. A wrestler loses if any part of his body above his knee 60 (touch) the ground. However, the horse races were my favourite. The riders were boys and girls! They are lighter, so the horses can run 61 (fast) and farther. I was worried about the children’s 62 (safe), but Burin said, “Don’t worry. They’ve been riding horses all their lives.” It was at the moment 63 I started to understand why people say that horses are at the heart of Mongolian culture. Now back home, I felt really tired out, but celebrating Naadam with my friend was totally worth 64 . He has invited me back for the winter to stay in a traditional Mongolian tent and eat hot pot. Even though our 65 (belief) are different, I can’t wait! 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节 应用文写作（满分15分） 假定你是李华，你校将增加学生的体育时间，现在有“每天增加10分钟锻炼时间”和“每周增加一节体育课”两个选项供大家选择，请你给校英语报写一封邮件投稿，内容包括： 1．你的选择； 2．说明理由。 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。 参考词汇：PE class体育课 Dear Editor, I’m writing to voice my opinion on our school’s plan to increase sports time. Yours, Li Hua 第二节 读后续写（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。 Twenty years ago, I was a taxi driver. One time, I was called at midnight to pick someone up. When I arrived, the building was completely dark except for one light in a window. I walked to the door and knocked. After a long wait, the door opened. A small woman in her 80s stood before me. By her side was a small suitcase. “Would you carry my bag out to the car?” she said. I took her suitcase and gave her my arm. We walked slowly to the street. She kept thanking me for my kindness. “You’re such a good boy,” she said. When we got in the taxi, she gave me an address. Then she asked, “Could you drive through the downtown?” “It’s not the shortest way,” I answered. “I don’t mind,” she said. “I’m in no hurry. I’m on my way to a hospice (临终安养院).” I saw her eyes in tears. “I don’t have any family and money left,” she continued. “The doctor says I don’t have very long.” Though hesitant, thinking of my mother who lived alone for a long time, I finally quietly turned off the meter. “What road do you want me to take?” I asked. For hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked. We drove through the neighbourhood where she and her husband had lived. Sometimes she asked me to slow down while she sat staring into the darkness quietly. As the sun was coming up, she suddenly said, “I’m tired. Let’s go now.” We drove in silence to the hospice. As we pulled up, two nurses were waiting for us. They helped her into a wheelchair. “How much do I owe you?” she asked me, reaching for her purse. “Nothing,” I said. Without thinking, I leaned down and gave her a hug. She hugged me tightly. “You gave an old woman a little moment of joy,” she said. “Thank you.” I smiled and then walked back to my taxi. 注意：1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 That night, I went to visit my mother. The old lady’s words changed my life greatly. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
