Huang was born in Tainan in 1963, but his father’s work took the family to Thailand when he was a child. Then, when Huang was 9, his parents sent him and his brother to the United States due to political tensions in Thailand. Unexpectedly, Huang was sent to a reform school for troubled youth. This may not sound beneficial, but Huang appreciated it. He says, “We worked really hard, and the kids were really tough.” The toughness and work ethic (道德) he developed have served him well. After graduating from college, Huang earned a master’s degree in electrical engineering. While being a student, he worked as a waiter. Before he took the job, he was very shy, but waiting tables forced him to speak to people. That helped him to get over his shyness. He also learned the importance of admitting mistakes. On his 30th birthday, Huang and two engineering friends founded his company, NVIDIA. They thought it was likely that computers would soon need more powerful technology to display graphics (图像).So NVIDIA produced such hardware: the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) in 1999.The first application of this technology was to video games, but it has also been used in other areas. Recently, GPUs have played a key role in the development of AI. Huang’s success is attributed to a number of factors including hard work and refusal to give up. But the most important characteristic is his willingness to take risks and learn from failure. This requires humility (谦逊) and honesty, which enables him to recognize and correct mistakes. Huang encourages these attitudes in his employees, which are partly responsible for the company’s success. Today, at the age of 62, Huang is the longest-serving CEO of a major technology company. He does not intend to stop anytime soon. 4. How did Huang react to being admitted to a reform school? A. He was shocked at first but settled for it. B. He took it seriously and made full use of it. C. He set a goal to get prepared for his tech career. D. He regretted the reform school but didn’t say so. 5. Why did Huang and his friends decide to develop the GPU? A. Because video game companies placed a large order of it. B. Because AI was in great need of the hardware at that time. C. Because stronger graphics hardware might be needed soon. D. Because no other groups were developing similar technology, 6. Which may replace the underlined part “attributed to” in paragraph 6? A. due to B. essential to C. identical to D. compared to 7. What is the text mainly about? A. GPU technology’s invention and wide application. B. Huang’s experiences and qualities leading to his success. C. NVIDIA’s development and impact on the tech industry. D. The significance of hard work and risk-taking for a firm. C In summer the extreme heat often makes people sweaty and restless. While people are annoyed by it, experts suggest summer is the best season to discharge your body’s toxins (毒素) and recover your energy. One popular option is hot-stone treatment. Therapists (治疗师) use smooth and heated stones, usually river rocks, to rub or press certain parts of the body, or place them on key points of the body. The warmth of the hot stones will improve blood circulation and also help relax muscles, while sweating is also believed to be good for discharging the body’s toxins. Another popular option is hot-stone baths. The hot-stone bath will help the body discharge toxins and humidity (湿气) that accumulated during the last winter. Summer is the best season to build a good body. Rather than use water or steam to heat and wash the body, people simply wear a coat or something comfortable, and then lie on heated stone tablets made of hot stones, which are warmed to around 45℃. The body will gradually warm up and blood circulation will also be improved. More sweat will come out quickly. The sweat is smooth and fresh, not smelly like that released after sports activities. Such baths bring a number of health benefits, such as anti-aging, improved blood circulation and stress relief. The slimming effect of dieting can even be promoted. Using hot stones for health benefits dates back to ancient times, but the modern renewal of hot-stone massage is generally credited to Mary Nelson, a native of Tucson, Arizona, America, whose trademark is “LaStone Therapy”. The therapy is gaining wide popularity with many people, especially those who have jobs in cool air-conditioned rooms. The hot-stone therapy can help cure many diseases, including back pain. 8. What does the hot-stone treatment can not do? A. Relax your muscle. B. Better your blood circulation. C. Improve your dieting. D. Discharge the toxins inside. 9. What will you do while taking hot-stone bath? A. Accumulate toxins during last winter. B. Bath in hot water or steam. C. Participate in sports activities before it. D. Lie on some hot flat stones. 10. What can be learned about the hot-stone therapy? A. It successfully cured many diseases by itself. B. Its popularity lies in its benefits on health. C. Its origin comes from modern concepts. D. It can help people sweat little in summer. 11. Which of the following could be the best title for the Text? A. Small hot stones, big healthy functions B. Summer, the best time to recover your energy C. Hot-stone therapy, a way to cure all diseases D. Sweating, the best way to release toxins D Nearly every week, we hear news about the latest successes and failures in driverless vehicles. But we hear little about how other industries are developing this same kind of technology. One industry heavily involved in researching and developing artificial intelligence, or AI, is agriculture. Companies are experimenting with high-tech tools that can help farmers save time and money, while reducing environment-harming chemicals. One of the companies is EcoRobotix of Switzerland. It created a robot equipped with AI and cameras to identify all plants on a farm. The robot has four wheels to carry itself through the fields in search of weeds. Computer-controlled arms then lower and spray weeds with small amounts of herbicide (除草剂). Company officials say the robot can fully operate on its own for up to 12 hours a day while being powered by the sun. It uses the same kind of sensor and positioning technology used to guide driverless vehicles. A farmer can also control the equipment through a smart phone. The co-founder of EcoRobotix, Aurélien Demaurex, says the farm robot can kill weeds with 20 times less herbicide than traditional methods. This is because the system uses exactly the right amount of chemical in the exact place required to kill weeds. Currently, farmers spread weed killers over massive areas to destroy unwanted plants. Another company developing farm robotics is California-based Blue River Technology. The company has a system called “See & Spray”, which it claims is the world’s first smart sprayer. The system — which connects to the back of a tractor — is also equipped with AI to identify and chemically kill only weeds. It can also spray chemicals on wanted plants to help them grow. Ben Chostner, vice president of business development for Blue River Technology, explains in a company video that See & Spray technology uses the same deep learning methods used in facial recognition. “The first time the machine saw pigweed, it didn’t know what kind of plant it was. But we taught it — by giving it tens of thousands of examples of pigweed — and now it’s an expert in pigweed.” 12. How will AI benefit agriculture? A. It will fund agriculture research. B. It can avoid harmful chemicals. C. It contributes to low-cost farming. D. It frees all farmers from field work. 13. What do the products of the two companies have in common? A. They use recognition technology. B. They are powered by solar energy. C. They are connected with smart phones. D. They can help wanted plants grow rapidly. 14. What do Ben Chostner’s words suggest about the robot? A. It can track various plants. B. It has the learning ability. C. It is environmentally-friendly. D. It is good at self-improving. 15. What is mainly talked about in the text? A. Modern See & Spray technology. B. The experiment in farming robots. C. Artificial intelligence in agriculture. D. The new trend in artificial intelligence. 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，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。 World Environment Day, celebrated annually on June 5th, is a global event that encourages action for the protection of our environment.

The noisy hall was filled with a mix of languages and the smell of foods from around the world. I was sitting with my new classmates — Tom, Jacob, and Lizzy, exchange students from the UK and the US. As I placed my tray down, Tom smiled. “Hey, it’s great you’re joining us!” I noticed their trays were quite different from mine. Each had their own plate of food: Tom had a sandwich and salad, Jacob had pasta, and Lizzy had a simple rice bowl. My tray, however, held three different dishes — mapo tofu, fried cabbage, and sweet and sour pork — all meant to be shared. “Wow, that’s a lot of food!” Jacob exclaimed, eyeing my tray. “Are you expecting someone else?” I laughed. “No, this is just for me and whoever wants to try. In China, we usually order several dishes and share them. We eat together from the same plates in the center of a round table. Lizzy frowned slightly. “But isn’t that... a bit unhygienic (不卫生的)?” she asked carefully. “I mean, using your own chopsticks to pick food from a public plate?” Tom nodded in agreement. “And it must be so noisy! My idea of a good meal is a quiet, peaceful environment where I can enjoy my own food without distraction (干扰). Chinese restaurants are always noisy. I don’t get it.” Jacob added, “I value my personal space, even at the dinner table. Having my own plate feels right. Sharing food with everyone seems to blur (模糊) those boundaries.” Hearing their honest but critical views, I felt a wave of defense rise within me. I wanted to immediately explain why they were wrong about us. But I paused. I took a deep breath and chose to listen instead. I asked them more about their dining habits and why they valued individual plates and quiet atmospheres. They explained how meals were a private time. The more they talked, the more I understood their perspective. It wasn’t that our way was wrong; it was just different. I realized I had an important task ahead of me. Next week, our school was hosting an International Culture Sharing Fair, and I determined to present something about the deeper meaning of our dining around a round table. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式作答。 At the fair, I stood before a curious crowd, with a picture of a crowded, happy Chinese round table on the screen behind me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When I finished, Tom, Jacob and Lizzy were in the audience, their expressions thoughtful. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026年度高二年级第二学期期中考试 英语 考生须知 1.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号等填写在答题卡上。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 第一部分 听力(共两节，每小题1.5分，满分30分) 第一节：听下面5段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。 1.

They thought it was likely that computers would soon need more powerful technology to display graphics (图像).So NVIDIA produced such hardware: the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) in 1999.The first application of this technology was to video games, but it has also been used in other areas. Recently, GPUs have played a key role in the development of AI. Huang’s success is attributed to a number of factors including hard work and refusal to give up. But the most important characteristic is his willingness to take risks and learn from failure. This requires humility (谦逊) and honesty, which enables him to recognize and correct mistakes. Huang encourages these attitudes in his employees, which are partly responsible for the company’s success. Today, at the age of 62, Huang is the longest-serving CEO of a major technology company. He does not intend to stop anytime soon. 4. How did Huang react to being admitted to a reform school? A. He was shocked at first but settled for it. B. He took it seriously and made full use of it. C. He set a goal to get prepared for his tech career. D. He regretted the reform school but didn’t say so. 5. Why did Huang and his friends decide to develop the GPU? A. Because video game companies placed a large order of it. B. Because AI was in great need of the hardware at that time. C. Because stronger graphics hardware might be needed soon. D. Because no other groups were developing similar technology, 6. Which may replace the underlined part “attributed to” in paragraph 6? A. due to B. essential to C. identical to D. compared to 7. What is the text mainly about? A. GPU technology’s invention and wide application. B. Huang’s experiences and qualities leading to his success. C. NVIDIA’s development and impact on the tech industry. D. The significance of hard work and risk-taking for a firm. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. A 7.

While people are annoyed by it, experts suggest summer is the best season to discharge your body’s toxins (毒素) and recover your energy. One popular option is hot-stone treatment. Therapists (治疗师) use smooth and heated stones, usually river rocks, to rub or press certain parts of the body, or place them on key points of the body. The warmth of the hot stones will improve blood circulation and also help relax muscles, while sweating is also believed to be good for discharging the body’s toxins. Another popular option is hot-stone baths. The hot-stone bath will help the body discharge toxins and humidity (湿气) that accumulated during the last winter. Summer is the best season to build a good body. Rather than use water or steam to heat and wash the body, people simply wear a coat or something comfortable, and then lie on heated stone tablets made of hot stones, which are warmed to around 45℃. The body will gradually warm up and blood circulation will also be improved. More sweat will come out quickly. The sweat is smooth and fresh, not smelly like that released after sports activities. Such baths bring a number of health benefits, such as anti-aging, improved blood circulation and stress relief. The slimming effect of dieting can even be promoted. Using hot stones for health benefits dates back to ancient times, but the modern renewal of hot-stone massage is generally credited to Mary Nelson, a native of Tucson, Arizona, America, whose trademark is “LaStone Therapy”. The therapy is gaining wide popularity with many people, especially those who have jobs in cool air-conditioned rooms. The hot-stone therapy can help cure many diseases, including back pain. 8. What does the hot-stone treatment can not do? A. Relax your muscle. B. Better your blood circulation. C. Improve your dieting. D. Discharge the toxins inside. 9. What will you do while taking hot-stone bath? A. Accumulate toxins during last winter. B. Bath in hot water or steam. C. Participate in sports activities before it. D. Lie on some hot flat stones. 10. What can be learned about the hot-stone therapy? A. It successfully cured many diseases by itself. B. Its popularity lies in its benefits on health. C. Its origin comes from modern concepts. D. It can help people sweat little in summer. 11. Which of the following could be the best title for the Text? A. Small hot stones, big healthy functions B. Summer, the best time to recover your energy C. Hot-stone therapy, a way to cure all diseases D. Sweating, the best way to release toxins 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文，讲述了在夏季利用热石疗法改善身体健康。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The warmth of the hot stones will improve blood circulation and also help relax muscles, while sweating is also believed to be good for discharging the body’s toxins.(热石的温暖会促进血液循环，也有助于放松肌肉，而出汗也被认为有助于排出身体的毒素)”可知，热石有助于放松肌肉，促进血液循环和排出毒素，没有提到能改善饮食。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Rather than use water or steam to heat and wash the body, people simply wear a coat or something comfortable, and then lie on heated stone tablets made of hot stones, which are warmed to around 45℃.(人们不用水或蒸汽加热和清洗身体，只需穿上一件外套或一些舒适的东西，然后躺在由热石头制成的加热的石板上，这些石板被加热到45℃左右)”可知，洗热石浴的时候需要躺在一些热的扁平石头，即石板上。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“The therapy is gaining wide popularity with many people, especially those who have jobs in cool air-conditioned rooms. The hot-stone therapy can help cure many diseases, including back pain.(这种疗法受到了许多人的广泛欢迎，尤其是那些在凉爽的空调房间工作的人。热石疗法可以帮助治愈许多疾病，包括背痛)”可知，热石疗法广受欢迎，由于它对健康有好处。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章全文内容及最后一段“The therapy is gaining wide popularity with many people, especially those who have jobs in cool air-conditioned rooms. The hot-stone therapy can help cure many diseases, including back pain.(这种疗法受到了许多人的广泛欢迎，尤其是那些在凉爽的空调房间工作的人。热石疗法可以帮助治愈许多疾病，包括背痛)”可知，本文介绍了热石疗法对身体有益，A选项“小热石，大养生功能”符合本文主旨，适合作为最佳标题。故选A。 D Nearly every week, we hear news about the latest successes and failures in driverless vehicles. But we hear little about how other industries are developing this same kind of technology. One industry heavily involved in researching and developing artificial intelligence, or AI, is agriculture. Companies are experimenting with high-tech tools that can help farmers save time and money, while reducing environment-harming chemicals. One of the companies is EcoRobotix of Switzerland. It created a robot equipped with AI and cameras to identify all plants on a farm. The robot has four wheels to carry itself through the fields in search of weeds. Computer-controlled arms then lower and spray weeds with small amounts of herbicide (除草剂). Company officials say the robot can fully operate on its own for up to 12 hours a day while being powered by the sun. It uses the same kind of sensor and positioning technology used to guide driverless vehicles. A farmer can also control the equipment through a smart phone. The co-founder of EcoRobotix, Aurélien Demaurex, says the farm robot can kill weeds with 20 times less herbicide than traditional methods. This is because the system uses exactly the right amount of chemical in the exact place required to kill weeds. Currently, farmers spread weed killers over massive areas to destroy unwanted plants. Another company developing farm robotics is California-based Blue River Technology. The company has a system called “See & Spray”, which it claims is the world’s first smart sprayer. The system — which connects to the back of a tractor — is also equipped with AI to identify and chemically kill only weeds. It can also spray chemicals on wanted plants to help them grow. Ben Chostner, vice president of business development for Blue River Technology, explains in a company video that See & Spray technology uses the same deep learning methods used in facial recognition. “The first time the machine saw pigweed, it didn’t know what kind of plant it was. But we taught it — by giving it tens of thousands of examples of pigweed — and now it’s an expert in pigweed.” 12. How will AI benefit agriculture? A. It will fund agriculture research. B. It can avoid harmful chemicals. C. It contributes to low-cost farming. D. It frees all farmers from field work. 13. What do the products of the two companies have in common? A. They use recognition technology. B. They are powered by solar energy. C. They are connected with smart phones. D. They can help wanted plants grow rapidly. 14. What do Ben Chostner’s words suggest about the robot? A. It can track various plants. B. It has the learning ability. C. It is environmentally-friendly. D. It is good at self-improving. 15. What is mainly talked about in the text? A. Modern See & Spray technology. B. The experiment in farming robots. C. Artificial intelligence in agriculture. D. The new trend in artificial intelligence. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了农业中的人工智能应用。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“One industry heavily involved in researching and developing artificial intelligence, or AI, is agriculture. Companies are experimenting with high-tech tools that can help farmers save time and money, while reducing environment-harming chemicals. (人工智能（AI）的研发在农业领域得到了广泛应用。公司正在试验高科技工具，这些工具可以帮助农民节省时间和金钱，同时减少对环境有害的化学物质)”可知，人工智能通过帮助农民节省时间和金钱，有助于低成本农业，从而使农业受益。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“It created a robot equipped with AI and cameras to identify all plants on a farm. (它创造了一个配备人工智能和摄像头的机器人，可以识别农场上的所有植物)”以及第四段中“The system — which connects to the back of a tractor―is also equipped with AI to identify and chemically kill only weeds. (该系统连接到拖拉机的后部，也配备了人工智能，可以识别并仅用化学方法杀死杂草)”可知，两家公司的产品都使用了识别技术。故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Ben Chostner, vice president of business development for Blue River Technology, explains in a company video that See & Spray technology uses the same deep learning methods used in facial recognition. “The first time the machine saw pigweed, it didn’t know what kind of plant it was. But we taught it — by giving it tens of thousands of examples of pigweed — and now it’s an expert in pigweed.” (蓝河科技公司业务发展副总裁本·乔斯特纳在公司视频中解释道，See & Spray技术使用了与面部识别相同的深度学习方法。“机器第一次看到苋草时，它不知道这是什么植物。但我们通过给它提供数万个苋草的例子来教它，现在它已经是苋草方面的专家了。”)”可知，本·乔斯特纳的话表明这个机器人有学习能力。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段中“One industry heavily involved in researching and developing artificial intelligence, or AI, is agriculture. (农业是研究和开发人工智能（AI）的重要行业之一)”可知，本文主要讲述了农业中的人工智能应用。故选C。 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，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。 World Environment Day, celebrated annually on June 5th, is a global event that encourages action for the protection of our environment.

The noisy hall was filled with a mix of languages and the smell of foods from around the world. I was sitting with my new classmates — Tom, Jacob, and Lizzy, exchange students from the UK and the US. As I placed my tray down, Tom smiled. “Hey, it’s great you’re joining us!” I noticed their trays were quite different from mine. Each had their own plate of food: Tom had a sandwich and salad, Jacob had pasta, and Lizzy had a simple rice bowl. My tray, however, held three different dishes — mapo tofu, fried cabbage, and sweet and sour pork — all meant to be shared. “Wow, that’s a lot of food!” Jacob exclaimed, eyeing my tray. “Are you expecting someone else?” I laughed. “No, this is just for me and whoever wants to try. In China, we usually order several dishes and share them. We eat together from the same plates in the center of a round table. Lizzy frowned slightly. “But isn’t that... a bit unhygienic (不卫生的)?” she asked carefully. “I mean, using your own chopsticks to pick food from a public plate?” Tom nodded in agreement. “And it must be so noisy! My idea of a good meal is a quiet, peaceful environment where I can enjoy my own food without distraction (干扰). Chinese restaurants are always noisy. I don’t get it.” Jacob added, “I value my personal space, even at the dinner table. Having my own plate feels right. Sharing food with everyone seems to blur (模糊) those boundaries.” Hearing their honest but critical views, I felt a wave of defense rise within me. I wanted to immediately explain why they were wrong about us. But I paused. I took a deep breath and chose to listen instead. I asked them more about their dining habits and why they valued individual plates and quiet atmospheres. They explained how meals were a private time. The more they talked, the more I understood their perspective. It wasn’t that our way was wrong; it was just different. I realized I had an important task ahead of me. Next week, our school was hosting an International Culture Sharing Fair, and I determined to present something about the deeper meaning of our dining around a round table. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式作答。 At the fair, I stood before a curious crowd, with a picture of a crowded, happy Chinese round table on the screen behind me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When I finished, Tom, Jacob and Lizzy were in the audience, their expressions thoughtful. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 At the fair, I stood before a curious crowd, with a picture of a crowded, happy Chinese round table on the screen behind me. I started by explaining that the round table symbolizes unity and equality — no one sits at the head, and everyone is close to each other. “Sharing food isn’t about being unhygienic,” I said with a smile. “It’s a way to show care. When we pick food for others, we’re saying ‘I think of you’.” I told them how family meals in China are a time to talk, laugh and strengthen bonds, and the noise is the sound of happiness. When I finished, Tom, Jacob and Lizzy were in the audience, their expressions thoughtful. They walked up to me, and Tom spoke first: “I never thought sharing food had such a warm meaning. I judged it too quickly.” Lizzy nodded, holding a sample I gave her. “This tastes amazing, and I get it now — it’s about connection, not just food.” Jacob smiled, “I still value my personal space, but I see that your way is about love and togetherness.” That day, we sat together, sharing my snacks, and for the first time, they understood why Chinese people love dining around a round table — it’s not just a meal, but a celebration of togetherness. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了国际高中食堂里，作者的中国共餐习惯遭到外国交换生质疑，他们认为共餐不卫生、吵闹且侵犯个人空间。作者没有急于辩解，而是在学校国际文化分享会上，讲解中国圆桌共餐象征团结平等、传递关爱的深层意义，最终让交换生们理解了这一文化的温暖。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“在集市上，我站在一群好奇的人群面前，身后屏幕上展示着一张热闹欢快的中国圆桌聚餐的画面”可知，第一段可描写作者在学校国际文化分享会上，讲解中国圆桌共餐象征团结平等、传递关爱的深层意义。 ②由第二段首句内容“当我讲完后，汤姆、雅各布和莉齐坐在观众席上，他们的表情显得若有所思”可知，第二段可描写交换生们理解了这一文化的温暖。 2. 续写线索：作者解释中国圆桌意义——作者解释文化——交换生开始反思——明白文化温暖——作者感悟 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①象征：symbolize/represent ②珍惜：value/cherish ③完成：finish/complete 情绪类 ①快乐的：happy/delighted ②团聚：togetherness/unity 【点睛】[高分句型1] Lizzy nodded, holding a sample I gave her.（运用了现在分词作状语以及省略关系代词的定语从句） [高分句型2] That day, we sat together, sharing my snacks, and for the first time, they understood why Chinese people love dining around a round table — it’s not just a meal, but a celebration of togetherness.（运用了why引导宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
