But my view began to change when I cleaned out his roof space last summer.While sorting through boxes,I came across a wooden box filled with letters-not just letters he had received,but drafts of his own.One letter,written to the local mayor about the closure of a neighborhood park, wasn't just a list of complaints.Instead,he had captured the scene of elderly men playing chess in the shade,the distant sound of children laughing,and the general peaceful atmosphere of the area. The writing was both elegant and firm,urging the mayor to consider the value of community spaces. It was then that I understood.My grandfather didn't write simply to communicate information His letters were a labor of love and respect,intended to give the reader the time and attention they deserved.He wasn't writing for quick exchange,as I often did with my text messages,but for lasting impact. I began using that old fountain pen again.At first,my hand seized up,and I found it frustrating to write at the pace my thoughts raced.But gradually,the slow ink flow forced me to slow down and think deeply about every word.Writing became more than just a task-it became a way of truly reflecting on my thoughts,my emotions,and my words. 24.How did the author initially find using a fountain pen? A.Troublesome and messy. B.Exciting and creative. C.Fascinating but pointless. D.Confusing but acceptable 25.Why did the author change his attitude toward the fountain pen?

Such a contribution would add to the tens of millions of tons of electronic products the globe abandons annually.Cell phones,computers and other digital products often contain mercury(), lead or other poisons.When improperly disposed()of,they can pollute air,water and soil.In 2022,about 78%of the world's e-waste end up in landfills or at unofficial recycling sites,where laborers risk their health to clean up rare metals. The AI boom rapidly consumes data storage devices and high-performance components,which are usually replaced when new versions are available.To calculate the e-waste contribution. researchers examined hardware use,lifespan,and the industry's growth rate.Their prediction is an estimate that could change based on various factors. This study's biggest value comes from its attention to AI's broad environmental impacts,says Shaolei Ren,a researcher at the University of Califomia,Riverside."We might want AI companies to slow down a bit,"he says. Few countries mandate()the proper disposal of e-waste,and those that do often fail to carry out their existing laws on it.Twenty-five U.S.states have e-waste management policies,but there is no federal law that requires electronics recycling. Thankfully,some companies claim to be taking independent action.Microsoft and Google have committed to reaching net zero waste and net zero emissions respectively by 2030.They have many options to limit e-waste.It's possible to squeeze more life out of servers,for instance,through regular maintenance and updates or by shifting worn-out devices to less-intensive applications. These strategies are vital to reduce e-waste and benefit society,the study authors estimate. 32.What problem does Paragraph 1 present? A.The Netherlands consumes too much electricity. B.The disadvantages of AI outweigh the advantages. C.The environmental footprint of AI is alarmingly extensive. D.AI's energy-related issues largely result from image-making. 33.What is Shaolei Ren's attitude toward the growth of AI companies? A.Indifferent. B.Cautious. C.Positive. D.Ambiguous. 34.What is the key to reducing e-waste? A.Prioritizing smartphone recycling B.Adjusting AI application frequency C.Banning the overuse of AI completely D.Adopting device-lifespan-extending measures. 高二英语试卷第4页共8页 35.Which one is the best title for the text? A.AI May Worsen the E-waste Crisis. B.E-waste Calls for Proper Use of AI. C.E-waste Problems Mostly Blame on AI. D.AI and E-waste Always Go Hand in Hand. 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。 Fitness Magazine recently ran an article titled "Five Reasons to Thank Your Workout Partner."

I soon felt Mr.Henderson's cold attitude myself after settling down.Whenever I greeted him with a smile,he would merely glance at me and walk off in silence.The only time he approached me was to complain that my dogs'constant barking ruined his peace.At one point,he even warned me seriously that he would call the police if I couldn't keep my dogs under control.Hoping to avoid trouble,I tried hard to keep my dogs quiet and kept them away from his property as much as possible Even so,a cold,unspoken divide always lay between us. 高二英语试卷第7页共8页 One freezing winter afternoon,overnight snow had covered the whole neighborhood,leaving the sidewalk coated with slippery ice.The bitter cold kept most people indoors,making the streets unusually quiet.I was busy with housework inside my house,while my dogs wandered and played in the fenced yard.All was calm until my dogs suddenly broke into sharp,desperate barks,nothing like their usual playful noise. Shocked at their strange reaction,I rushed to the window to check.I spotted my dogs circling anxiously around a figure on the icy sidewalk.I leaned forward and realized it was Mr.Henderson. He must have slipped on the frozen pavement and taken a hard fall.Completely alone in the biting wind,he lay there lifelessly.Great concern flooded my mind,as I knew he would face serious risks from the freezing weather if no one helped him right away. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150字左右： 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Without hesitation,I rushed out to give a hand.
