For most of us, the bell schedule determined the rhythm of our days. First period was math, where we would quietly solve problems from a textbook. Then, we’d drag ourselves to history class, where mindless memorization left us battling to keep our eyes open. Next was science, where we mechanically followed laboratory procedures. This cycle repeated itself, class after class, day after day. Until, that is, we reached Mr. Hart’s literature class. His classroom didn’t have the boring rows of desks facing a chalkboard; instead, it had mismatched sofas. Mr. Hart believed that the physical environment of a classroom could “liberate the mind” — a phrase he often said with such conviction that we couldn’t help but believe he must be right. One of Mr. Hart’s most memorable teaching moments occurred when we were studying Moby Dick. Rather than assigning an essay, he took us on a nighttime adventure. We met at the school’s sports field where he handed each of us a passage from the book. The evening air was thick with anticipation and the smell of the grass as we gathered in a circle. “In the spirit of sailors in Moby Dick, we will share our thoughts under the stars,” he announced. He then inspired us to read our passages aloud and relate them to modern-day situations and personal experiences. In the quiet of the night, I found the themes far more meaningful in that starlit, open-air classroom. Perhaps the most valuable lesson I learned from Mr. Hart wasn’t about literature. It was that learning is a voyage, where curiosity and passion are the sails driving us forward. Mr. Hart taught us to question, to wonder, and to see the world as an endless storybook filled with lessons waiting to be discovered. 4. What does the bell schedule in paragraph 2 show? A. The depth of textbooks. B. The diversity of high school life. C. The importance of study. D. The boredom of conventional classes. 5. What does the underlined word “conviction” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Concern. B. Certainty. C. Doubt. D. Interest. 6. Why does the author mention Mr. Hart’s teaching moment? A. To reveal the theme of Moby Dick. B. To recall Mr. Hart’s nighttime adventure. C. To stress the status of Moby Dick. D. To highlight Mr. Hart’s creative teaching. 7. Which of the following best describes Mr. Hart? A. Curious and brave. B. Tolerant and helpful. C. Creative and inspiring. D. Ambitious and determined. 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文回忆了作者高中时期与众不同的文学老师 Hart 先生，对比枯燥刻板的传统课堂，记叙哈特老师富有创意、启发人心的教学方式，并讲述作者从他身上领悟到学习的真谛。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“First period was math, where we would quietly solve problems from a textbook. Then, we'd drag ourselves to history class, where mindless memorization left us battling to keep our eyes open. Next was science, where we mechanically followed laboratory procedures. (第一节是数学，我们安静地做课本上的题。然后我们拖着自己去历史课，无脑的记忆让我们拼命睁着眼。接下来是科学，我们机械地跟着实验步骤走。)”可知，铃声安排下的课程都是单调、机械、令人昏昏欲睡的，体现的是传统课堂的枯燥。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“Mr. Hart believed that the physical environment of a classroom could “liberate the mind”— a phrase he often said with such conviction that we couldn't help but believe he must be right. (Hart老师相信教室的物理环境能“解放思维”——他说这句话时带着如此强烈的conviction，以至于我们不由得相信他一定是对的。)”可知，他说这话时非常坚定，以至于学生们都信了，“conviction”意为“确信、坚定的信念”。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“One of Mr. Hart's most memorable teaching moments occurred when we were studying Moby Dick. Rather than assigning an essay, he took us on a nighttime adventure. (Hart老师最令人难忘的教学时刻之一发生在我们学《白鲸》时。他没有布置作文，而是带我们进行了一次夜间冒险。)”以及第五段在星空下朗读、联系个人经历的描述可知，作者提到这个教学时刻是为了展示Hart老师与传统教学截然不同的创造性教学方式。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，Hart老师改用沙发代替课桌、创新户外星空课堂，教学形式新颖独特，体现他富有创意的；他引导学生朗读思考、鼓励质疑探索，教会学生保持好奇心与学习热情，十分启发学生，体现他鼓舞人心、富有启发性的。 C Creativity scholars are often asked whether everyone is creative. Not everyone is creative in the sense of having developed new products that enrich our lives. However, everyone might be able to build their creative potential. Creative potential is best described as the combination of the capacity for creative thinking and the drive for creativity. Creative thinking is called for when we are facing open-ended problems which cannot be addressed by following a precise step-by-step process. The drive for creativity is based on our confidence that we can be creative. It is a common belief that schools kill creativity. Research shows that this belief is not supported by evidence. On the contrary, creative thinking abilities tend to grow as students progress through school. Why does the capacity to think creatively increase with schooling, although schools do not teach creative thinking explicitly (外显地)? This is due to the nature of creative thinking itself. New ideas are built from knowledge and experience, often by applying them in new ways. A student who takes a machining class might be more likely to think of unusual uses for a can, such as turning it into an organizer for different tools. Similarly, a theater class might inspire ideas how a can might be turned into a tool to make sound effects. Developing the drive for creativity is largely about implicit (内隐的) learning. Scientists have shown that creative confidence is boosted when others, especially those in authority, such as teachers or leaders, expect us to be creative and encourage us. It is as if we think, “Well, they think I can, therefore I should be able to.” We are not aware of these influences, but they are real nevertheless. If you aim to build creative potential, start small. Next, aim for multiple ideas. Finally, understand that creative potential is not fixed. It grows as we expand what we know and how we see ourselves and creativity. By building potential, we create the foundation from which what we could do can be transformed into what we actually do. 8. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. Steps of building creativity. B. The pursuit of being creative. C. Effects of creative thinking. D. The definition of creative potential. 9. How does the author prove that creativity increases with schooling? A. By giving examples. B. By citing a study. C. By providing statistics. D. By quoting an expert. 10. What can be inferred about the drive for creativity? A. It relies on those in authority. B. We know where it comes from. C. It grows as we are encouraged. D. We have high expectations for it. 11. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To illustrate that not everyone is creative. B. To explain how to build creative potential. C. To prove that schools do not kill creativity. D. To show how to boost creative confidence. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍创造潜能的定义，辨析学校与创造力的关系，说明外界鼓励对创造动力的作用，讲解培养个人创造潜能的方法。 【8题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Creative potential is best described as the combination of the capacity for creative thinking and the drive for creativity.(创造潜能是创造性思维能力与创造动力的结合体)”可知，第二段主要界定创造潜能的含义，后文进一步对创造性思维能力与创造动力这两个组成部分分别解释。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“A student who takes a machining class might be more likely to think of unusual uses for a can, such as turning it into an organizer for different tools. Similarly, a theater class might inspire ideas how a can might be turned into a tool to make sound effects.(上过机械加工课的学生可能会更倾向于想到罐子的非同寻常用途，比如将其改造成不同工具的收纳器。同样，戏剧课程也可能激发他们将罐子改造成能制作音效的工具的想法)”可知，作者列举课堂实例证明校园学习提升创造力。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“Scientists have shown that creative confidence is boosted when others, especially those in authority, such as teachers or leaders, expect us to be creative and encourage us.(科学家们发现，当他人——尤其是教师或领导者等权威人士——期望我们富有创造力并鼓励我们时，我们的创造性自信心会得到提升)”可知，外界鼓励能够助力创造动力增长。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，本文开篇指出每个人都可以培养自身的创造潜能，之后介绍了创造潜能的相关概念与特点，最后给出培养创造潜能的具体方法和方向，因此作者的写作目的是解释如何培养创造潜能。 D Each year an estimated one billion birds die from crashing into windows, and countless more exhaust themselves trying to make their way through artificially lit spaces. It’s a crisis for migratory species that are already facing sharp population declines because of climate change, habitat loss and pesticide (杀虫剂) exposure. Migratory birds often move at night, when they find their way using specialized cells that can sense Earth’s magnetic field (磁场) and take visual clues from the faint light of the moon and stars. Artificial lights disturb this carefully tuned internal compass, throwing birds off their path and even trapping them in bright light. “Unlike a lot of these huge sources of deaths — like changing climates — that individuals can’t influence as much as we’d like to, we can truly help with the overnight lighting problem,” says S. K. Winnicki, an evolutionary ecologist. The number of migratory birds overhead varies according to weather conditions and the location along the flyway. But generally, the number of migratory birds reaches its peak between two and four hours after sunset in the spring and fall. During these times, the easiest way to help birds is to turn off unneeded lights at night and to close curtains or blinds. For birds that don’t make it out of cities before the end of the night, one of the biggest dangers is crashing into glass while looking for a green space to rest. To help migratory birds in the daytime, experts suggest adding markers that will make the glass more visible to fast-moving birds. These markers could be as simple as a pattern of dots on the outside of the window or as complex as UV coatings (紫外涂层) that birds can see but humans can’t. “It’s tough to be a bird,” says Dustin Partridge, senior director at the nonprofit NYC Bird Alliance. “We’ve built up cities in their path, and this presents risks, but those issues are things that can be easily fixed.” 12. What can be learnt about migratory birds from the first two paragraphs? A. They hit windows after a long flight. B. They have trouble finding enough food. C. They rely on artificial light to make their way. D. They get lost due to a disturbed internal system. 13. What do Winnicki’s words imply? A. Migratory birds are dying out. B. Climate change takes a good turn. C. Ordinary people can do their part. D. Nighttime lighting is beyond control. 14. What is experts’ suggestion for helping migratory birds during the day? A. Keep lights off. B. Close curtains or blinds. C. Offer green space. D. Add markers to glass. 15. What can be a suitable title of the text? A. Negative effects of artificial light. B. How darkness might save migratory birds. C. Different crises for migratory birds. D. How migratory birds would move at night. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍人造灯光给候鸟带来的生存危机，解释人造光干扰候鸟夜间导航的原理，并分别给出夜间、白天保护候鸟的可行方法。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Migratory birds often move at night, when they find their way using specialized cells that can sense Earth's magnetic field and take visual clues from the faint light of the moon and stars. Artificial lights disturb this carefully tuned internal compass, throwing birds off their path and even trapping them in bright light. (候鸟通常在夜间迁徙，它们利用能感知地球磁场的特殊细胞和月光、星光的微弱光线来导航。人造光会干扰这套精密的内部指南针，使鸟类偏离航线，甚至被困在强光中。)”可知，候鸟迷路是因为其内部导航系统被人造光干扰了。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段Winnicki所说的“Unlike a lot of these huge sources of deaths — like changing climates — that individuals can't influence as much as we'd like to, we can truly help with the overnight lighting problem (与气候变化等个人难以左右的大型死亡因素不同，我们确实能在夜间照明问题上出力)”可知，她的话暗示普通人可以在这件事上尽一份力。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“To help migratory birds in the daytime, experts suggest adding markers that will make the glass more visible to fast-moving birds. (为了在白天帮助候鸟，专家建议添加标记，使快速飞行的鸟类更容易看到玻璃。)”可知，专家建议在玻璃上添加标记。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文，文章首先指出人造光对候鸟的危害，然后提出解决方案：夜间关灯、白天给玻璃加标记，核心观点是减少人造光可以拯救候鸟。B项“黑暗如何拯救候鸟”最能概括全文主旨，适合用作标题。 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。 The Consequences of Having No Consequences As a youth football coach, I have watched players develop in real time through both successes and failures. Yet one season stands out. During that season, a talented group faced no punishments for missed practices or low effort. As a result, attendance dropped and performance declined. When the season ended with early losses, the players expressed shock and blame. ____16____ In my coaching, I apply natural consequences. Players who skip physical training sit out the next session. No exceptions. No second chances. The result has been obvious. ____17____ Young athletes learn that preparation determines performance. ____18____ When schools remove failing grades or reduce homework standards, students lose the link between effort and outcome. But consequences make it clear that effort produces results. A missed deadline receives a zero. An incomplete assignment requires revision during personal time. Students learn time management and responsibility as these habits transfer to professional life. Actually, consequences are not punishments and they are teachers revealing the connection between choices and results. They prepare people for real life. Parents who allow natural outcomes raise responsible adults. ____19____ Coaches who apply consequences develop tough athletes. Therefore, allow consequences to do their work. The result is that individuals will possess internal strength. That strength benefits families, workplaces, and communities. ____20____ The path forward requires courage from adults to step back and let consequences teach. The payoff is well worth it. A. Classrooms follow the same principle. B. Attendance improves and effort increases. C. The absence of consequences extends into adulthood. D. It creates a society grounded in personal responsibility. E. They had never learned that actions carry consequences. F. Educators who enforce standards prepare capable graduates. G. Consequences are most effective when introduced gradually. 【答案】16. E 17. B 18. A 19. F 20. D 【解析】 【导语】本文以青少年足球训练经历为切入点，论述缺失行为后果的弊端，说明自然后果能培养人的责任意识，适用于训练、校园与家庭场景。 【16题详解】 根据空前的“When the season ended with early losses, the players expressed shock and blame.(当赛季早早落败结束时，球员们表现出震惊并且互相指责。)”可知，前文交代球队没有惩罚机制最终落败，球员对此无法理解、互相推卸责任，空格处需要解释球员出现该状态的根源。E选项“They had never learned that actions carry consequences.(他们从来没有明白行为都会带来相应的后果)”中代词They指代前文提到的这批球员，点明球员震惊推诿的根本原因，同时引出全文核心话题“后果”，上下文逻辑匹配，符合语境。 【17题详解】 根据空前的“Players who skip physical training sit out the next session. No exceptions. No second chances. The result has been obvious.(缺席体能训练的球员不能参加下一次训练，没有例外，不给第二次机会。带来的结果十分明显。)”可知，前文介绍教练落实自然后果的管理规则，空格处需要填写这套规则带来的正向变化。B选项“Attendance improves and effort increases.(出勤情况得到改善，训练投入也有所增加)”直接对应前文中“The result has been obvious”，清晰写出严格执行后果机制产生的积极成效，前后内容衔接紧密，符合语境。 【18题详解】 根据空后的“When schools remove failing grades or reduce homework standards, students lose the link between effort and outcome.(当学校取消不及格分数或者降低作业标准时，学生就会失去付出与结果之间的关联。)”可知，后文话题切换到学校课堂与学生教育层面，前文段落围绕足球训练场展开，空格需要起到场景过渡的作用，说明教室也适用同一套逻辑。A选项“Classrooms follow the same principle.(教室也遵循同样的道理)”完成从训练场到校园的过渡，总领后文校园相关论述，符合语境。 【19题详解】 根据空前的“Parents who allow natural outcomes raise responsible adults.(接纳自然后果的父母能培养出有责任心的成年人。)”以及空后的“Coaches who apply consequences develop tough athletes.(落实后果机制的教练能培养出意志坚韧的运动员。)”可知，前后两句句式结构完全一致，分别从家长、教练两类人群举例论证，空格处需要填入句式相同、对象为教育者的句子，构成排比结构。F选项“Educators who enforce standards prepare capable graduates.(严格执行标准的教育者能培养出能力出众的毕业生)”，句式与前后两句保持统一，补充教育者相关论据，完善排比论证，符合语境。 【20题详解】 根据空前的“That strength benefits families, workplaces, and communities.(这种内在力量会惠及家庭、职场以及各个社群。)”可知，前文讲述拥有内在自律力量对各类集体的好处，空格处需要升华观点，说明该力量对整个社会的价值。D选项“It creates a society grounded in personal responsibility.(它打造一个以个人责任感为根基的社会)”中代词It指代前文个体拥有的内在力量，将影响范围从家庭社群上升至整个社会，总结全文核心观点，符合语境。 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。 完形填空 I moved to an average town in Oxfordshire in my late 20s.

One particularly beautiful cover caught my eye, on which the golden Chinese characters read Pride and Prejudice. As I read, I felt transported to another world. I had never felt so close to the characters in a book. That was me, a bookworm, before we moved to the United States. I had been outgoing in China, but I felt lonely here. When the teachers spoke to me, their efforts to help me understand through body language embarrassed me. What embarrassed me more was my accent, so I seldom talked with the kids in my class. I began to dislike school. And though I had always loved books, I hated reading in English. My 5th grade English teacher, Ms. Thomas, gave me books she thought were well-suited for an English Language Learner. However, they were picture books with basically no plot, which bored me to death. One afternoon, Ms. Thomas asked for another short meeting to discuss my reading progress. “Chelsea, I know you love to read, so you must have found those childish books I had given you very boring,” Ms. Thomas said. I nodded in reply. “I think it’s time for you to start reading more complicated books. I picked out some classics for you. Would you like to see if you are interested in any of them?” she asked pleasantly. As I turned the pages, I found these thick novels filled with words that I didn’t recognize. I was about to tell Ms. Thomas that I didn’t like any of them when a copy of Pride and Prejudice caught my eye, just as it had in China. I immediately pulled it out and scanned through it. “Chelsea, are you sure you would like to read it?” Ms. Thomas asked. “It might be too challenging for your reading level!” “I am willing to challenge myself,” I replied. “I will try to read it, even if I need to use the dictionary to understand it.” 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。 I read the book in English slowly, determined to finish it. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I used my newfound confidence to make friends in school. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 I read the book in English slowly, determined to finish it. Every unknown word forced me to pause and look it up in the dictionary. I marked difficult sentences and took reading notes every day after class. Ms. Thomas often checked my notes and patiently explained complex grammar and literary expressions to me. Bit by bit, I could follow the plot smoothly and felt the same touching feelings I had when reading the Chinese version. When I finally closed the book, a strong sense of achievement washed over me. My fear of English faded away completely. I used my newfound confidence to make friends in school. I shared my love for Pride and Prejudice with my classmates during break time. Many peers were curious about the story and chatted with me actively. I no longer felt ashamed of my accent and talked bravely with others. Reading this classic broke my language barrier and helped me step out of loneliness. I realized that reading is not only a bridge to foreign culture but also a powerful source of courage to face difficulties and connect with people around me. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者在中国时十分热爱阅读《傲慢与偏见》，搬家到美国后因口音、语言障碍变得自卑孤僻，抵触英语阅读；英语老师Thomas女士察觉她的困境，不再给她浅显图画书，拿出经典英文小说，作者一眼选中英文版《傲慢与偏见》，决心克服语言难关读完这本书。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写作者边查字典边坚持阅读，老师耐心辅导答疑，她慢慢读懂故事，读完后收获满满的成就感，不再畏惧英语。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写作者主动和同学分享这本书，大胆开口交流，摆脱孤独，领悟阅读既能跨越语言隔阂，也能给予与人交往的勇气。 2. 续写线索：逐词查字典阅读 —— 坚持做阅读笔记 —— 老师耐心辅导 —— 读懂故事、收获成就感 —— 不再畏惧英语 —— 主动和同学分享书籍 —— 大胆开口交流、交到朋友 —— 感悟阅读的力量 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①解释：explain/illustrate ②逐渐消失：fade away/die away 情绪类 ①害怕：fear/scare ②羞愧的：ashamed/embarrassed 【点睛】[高分句型 1] Bit by bit, I could follow the plot smoothly and felt the same touching feelings I had when reading the Chinese version.（运用了状语从句的省略） [高分句型 2] I realized that reading is not only a bridge to foreign culture but also a powerful source of courage to face difficulties and connect with people around me.（运用了that 引导宾语从句，not only...but also... 并列结构） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025/2026学年度第二学期高二年级期终考试 英语试题 第一部分：听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 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.

B When I reflect on my years in high school, one particular figure stands out like a lighthouse in the fog of conventional classrooms: Mr. Wesley Hart. For most of us, the bell schedule determined the rhythm of our days. First period was math, where we would quietly solve problems from a textbook. Then, we’d drag ourselves to history class, where mindless memorization left us battling to keep our eyes open. Next was science, where we mechanically followed laboratory procedures. This cycle repeated itself, class after class, day after day. Until, that is, we reached Mr. Hart’s literature class. His classroom didn’t have the boring rows of desks facing a chalkboard; instead, it had mismatched sofas. Mr. Hart believed that the physical environment of a classroom could “liberate the mind” — a phrase he often said with such conviction that we couldn’t help but believe he must be right. One of Mr. Hart’s most memorable teaching moments occurred when we were studying Moby Dick. Rather than assigning an essay, he took us on a nighttime adventure. We met at the school’s sports field where he handed each of us a passage from the book. The evening air was thick with anticipation and the smell of the grass as we gathered in a circle. “In the spirit of sailors in Moby Dick, we will share our thoughts under the stars,” he announced. He then inspired us to read our passages aloud and relate them to modern-day situations and personal experiences. In the quiet of the night, I found the themes far more meaningful in that starlit, open-air classroom. Perhaps the most valuable lesson I learned from Mr. Hart wasn’t about literature. It was that learning is a voyage, where curiosity and passion are the sails driving us forward. Mr. Hart taught us to question, to wonder, and to see the world as an endless storybook filled with lessons waiting to be discovered. 4. What does the bell schedule in paragraph 2 show? A. The depth of textbooks. B. The diversity of high school life. C. The importance of study. D. The boredom of conventional classes. 5. What does the underlined word “conviction” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Concern. B. Certainty. C. Doubt. D. Interest. 6. Why does the author mention Mr. Hart’s teaching moment? A. To reveal the theme of Moby Dick. B. To recall Mr. Hart’s nighttime adventure. C. To stress the status of Moby Dick. D. To highlight Mr. Hart’s creative teaching. 7. Which of the following best describes Mr. Hart? A. Curious and brave. B. Tolerant and helpful. C. Creative and inspiring. D. Ambitious and determined. C Creativity scholars are often asked whether everyone is creative. Not everyone is creative in the sense of having developed new products that enrich our lives. However, everyone might be able to build their creative potential. Creative potential is best described as the combination of the capacity for creative thinking and the drive for creativity. Creative thinking is called for when we are facing open-ended problems which cannot be addressed by following a precise step-by-step process. The drive for creativity is based on our confidence that we can be creative. It is a common belief that schools kill creativity. Research shows that this belief is not supported by evidence. On the contrary, creative thinking abilities tend to grow as students progress through school. Why does the capacity to think creatively increase with schooling, although schools do not teach creative thinking explicitly (外显地)? This is due to the nature of creative thinking itself. New ideas are built from knowledge and experience, often by applying them in new ways. A student who takes a machining class might be more likely to think of unusual uses for a can, such as turning it into an organizer for different tools. Similarly, a theater class might inspire ideas how a can might be turned into a tool to make sound effects. Developing the drive for creativity is largely about implicit (内隐的) learning. Scientists have shown that creative confidence is boosted when others, especially those in authority, such as teachers or leaders, expect us to be creative and encourage us. It is as if we think, “Well, they think I can, therefore I should be able to.” We are not aware of these influences, but they are real nevertheless. If you aim to build creative potential, start small. Next, aim for multiple ideas. Finally, understand that creative potential is not fixed. It grows as we expand what we know and how we see ourselves and creativity. By building potential, we create the foundation from which what we could do can be transformed into what we actually do. 8. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. Steps of building creativity. B. The pursuit of being creative. C. Effects of creative thinking. D. The definition of creative potential. 9. How does the author prove that creativity increases with schooling? A. By giving examples. B. By citing a study. C. By providing statistics. D. By quoting an expert. 10. What can be inferred about the drive for creativity? A. It relies on those in authority. B. We know where it comes from. C. It grows as we are encouraged. D. We have high expectations for it. 11. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To illustrate that not everyone is creative. B. To explain how to build creative potential. C. To prove that schools do not kill creativity. D. To show how to boost creative confidence. D Each year an estimated one billion birds die from crashing into windows, and countless more exhaust themselves trying to make their way through artificially lit spaces. It’s a crisis for migratory species that are already facing sharp population declines because of climate change, habitat loss and pesticide (杀虫剂) exposure. Migratory birds often move at night, when they find their way using specialized cells that can sense Earth’s magnetic field (磁场) and take visual clues from the faint light of the moon and stars. Artificial lights disturb this carefully tuned internal compass, throwing birds off their path and even trapping them in bright light. “Unlike a lot of these huge sources of deaths — like changing climates — that individuals can’t influence as much as we’d like to, we can truly help with the overnight lighting problem,” says S. K. Winnicki, an evolutionary ecologist. The number of migratory birds overhead varies according to weather conditions and the location along the flyway. But generally, the number of migratory birds reaches its peak between two and four hours after sunset in the spring and fall. During these times, the easiest way to help birds is to turn off unneeded lights at night and to close curtains or blinds. For birds that don’t make it out of cities before the end of the night, one of the biggest dangers is crashing into glass while looking for a green space to rest. To help migratory birds in the daytime, experts suggest adding markers that will make the glass more visible to fast-moving birds. These markers could be as simple as a pattern of dots on the outside of the window or as complex as UV coatings (紫外涂层) that birds can see but humans can’t. “It’s tough to be a bird,” says Dustin Partridge, senior director at the nonprofit NYC Bird Alliance. “We’ve built up cities in their path, and this presents risks, but those issues are things that can be easily fixed.” 12.

Yet one season stands out. During that season, a talented group faced no punishments for missed practices or low effort. As a result, attendance dropped and performance declined. When the season ended with early losses, the players expressed shock and blame. ____16____ In my coaching, I apply natural consequences. Players who skip physical training sit out the next session. No exceptions. No second chances. The result has been obvious. ____17____ Young athletes learn that preparation determines performance. ____18____ When schools remove failing grades or reduce homework standards, students lose the link between effort and outcome. But consequences make it clear that effort produces results. A missed deadline receives a zero. An incomplete assignment requires revision during personal time. Students learn time management and responsibility as these habits transfer to professional life. Actually, consequences are not punishments and they are teachers revealing the connection between choices and results. They prepare people for real life. Parents who allow natural outcomes raise responsible adults. ____19____ Coaches who apply consequences develop tough athletes. Therefore, allow consequences to do their work. The result is that individuals will possess internal strength. That strength benefits families, workplaces, and communities. ____20____ The path forward requires courage from adults to step back and let consequences teach. The payoff is well worth it. A. Classrooms follow the same principle. B. Attendance improves and effort increases. C. The absence of consequences extends into adulthood. D. It creates a society grounded in personal responsibility. E. They had never learned that actions carry consequences. F. Educators who enforce standards prepare capable graduates. G.

One particularly beautiful cover caught my eye, on which the golden Chinese characters read Pride and Prejudice. As I read, I felt transported to another world. I had never felt so close to the characters in a book. That was me, a bookworm, before we moved to the United States. I had been outgoing in China, but I felt lonely here. When the teachers spoke to me, their efforts to help me understand through body language embarrassed me. What embarrassed me more was my accent, so I seldom talked with the kids in my class. I began to dislike school. And though I had always loved books, I hated reading in English. My 5th grade English teacher, Ms. Thomas, gave me books she thought were well-suited for an English Language Learner. However, they were picture books with basically no plot, which bored me to death. One afternoon, Ms. Thomas asked for another short meeting to discuss my reading progress. “Chelsea, I know you love to read, so you must have found those childish books I had given you very boring,” Ms. Thomas said. I nodded in reply. “I think it’s time for you to start reading more complicated books. I picked out some classics for you. Would you like to see if you are interested in any of them?” she asked pleasantly. As I turned the pages, I found these thick novels filled with words that I didn’t recognize. I was about to tell Ms. Thomas that I didn’t like any of them when a copy of Pride and Prejudice caught my eye, just as it had in China. I immediately pulled it out and scanned through it. “Chelsea, are you sure you would like to read it?” Ms. Thomas asked. “It might be too challenging for your reading level!” “I am willing to challenge myself,” I replied. “I will try to read it, even if I need to use the dictionary to understand it.” 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。 I read the book in English slowly, determined to finish it. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I used my newfound confidence to make friends in school. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
