B Growing up in Rio de Janeiro,Rosaly Lopes showed strong interest in space science in her early years.The great excitement brought by Apollo moon landings made her determine to be an astronaut at the age of seven.As time went by,she clearly realized this dream was hard to come true for personal reasons."I was a Brazilian girl with poor eyesight,"she frankly said.Instead of feeling upset,she adjusted her dream actively and made up her mind to seek chances to work for NASA all the time.

C A new exhibition titled the Beauty of Chinese Painting is now on at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.Featuring 90 works drawn almost entirely from the museum's own collection,the show explores the centuries-old bond between poetry and painting in Chinese art,offering Western audiences a rare window into this unique cultural tradition. Joseph Scheier-Dolberg,the exhibition's organizer,raises a key question:"When painters sat down to paint in ancient China,why were they so often painting poetic themes?"He explains that poetry was never just a source of inspiration for painters;it was a framework for creating meaning.Many artists did not simply copy scenes described in poems.Instead,they sought to capture the mood,emotion and philosophical ideas behind the words.For example,Tang Dynasty poems by Li Bai and Du Fu inspired countless landscape paintings,where misty mountains and flowing rivers were painted to fit the quiet loneliness or the great charm of the poems. A central part of this tradition is the practice of inscribing poems directly onto paintings.These calligraphic lines,written by the artists themselves or later admirers,add layers of interpretation to the visual work.What appears as a simple landscape might,in fact,carry hidden references to personal feelings,political views or shared cultural memories,making the artwork a conversation between image and text. For Dolberg,the exhibition aims to bridge cultural gaps."Many Western visitors may not realize that Chinese painting is not just about what you see,"he says."It is about what you read and what you 高二英语第6页（共12页) 6 imagine."By connecting paintings with their poetic sources,the show helps audiences understand why the saying"Poetry is formless painting;painting is silent poetry"has remained true for centuries. 28.What do we know about the exhibition? A.It is held at a museum in China. B.It displays over 90 newly created artworks C.It is only open to professional art researchers. D.It explores the link between poetry and painting. 29.What can we infer about ancient Chinese painters from the second paragraph? A.They often changed poems to fit their paintings. B.They focused more on copying poems than creating moods. C.They considered poetry as a way to add depth to their work. D.They refused to paint themes that were not mentioned in poems. 30.What does the underlined word "inscribing"in paragraph 3 probably mean? A.Removing. B.Writing. C.Copying. D.Hiding. 31.What is the main purpose of the exhibition according to the last paragraph? A.To teach visitors how to write traditional Chinese poems. B.To show Chinese painting is easy for Westerners to understand. C.To help foreign visitors see the hidden meanings in Chinese art. D.To prove poetry is more important than painting in Chinese culture. D AI-powered wearable sensors have gone far beyond the range of ordinary innovative designs.They have evolved into an influential force reshaping modern lifestyle,redefining routine health supervision, human-device interaction and people's slight emotional sense.Conventional wearables are restricted to basic functions focused on simple fitness data recording;by contrast,the upgraded generation adopts complex machine learning algorithms (to conduct real-time analysis and interpretation of multi-layered physical signals. Attached to the arms or bodies,such complicated sensors are able to capture faint variations in surface temperature,sweat composition and muscle tension status.Through instant data processing and pattern comparison,they can spot early warnings of long-term mental stress,built-up physical exhaustion or abnormal heart rhythm,long before individuals become aware of any obvious discomfort. A trial launched by a British tech institution suggested that most participants failed to notice potential 高二英语第7页（共12页) 7 health risks until the sensors gave indirect reminders in advance. Beyond individual health management,the technology is undergoing test application in industrial risk prevention.For high-risk sectors ranging from construction to underground mining,smart wearables can monitor workers'physical endurance in real time and issue timely alerts once overwork approaches the hidden safety boundary,effectively cutting down avoidable accidents caused by long-term physical overload. Nevertheless,the large-scale popularity of such devices is held back by structural obstacles. Privacy information loss tops the major concerns,as uninterrupted biological data collection may expose personal sensitive information to uncontrolled access.Moreover,technical bottlenecks remain unsolved: existing sensors struggle to maintain steady precision under extreme weather conditions or intense physical movements.Even so,experts hold that future progress in battery durability and data security mechanisms (will determine whether AI wearables can achieve long-term popularization and practical value. 32.What is the core difference between new AI wearables and traditional ones? A.They are designed merely for basic daily fitness tracking. B.They analyze multi-layered physical signals in real time. C.They help people completely get rid of negative emotions. D.They provide professional medical treatment for hidden diseases. 33.What can be concluded from the trial of the British tech institution? A.Few participants realized the value of the sensors. B.The trial was conducted in professional medical labs C.Participants could sense health risks on their own D.The sensor's early warning worked effectively. 34.What does the author imply about AI wearables in paragraph 4? A.Privacy problems have already been well handled. B.Extreme environments hardly affect sensor precision C.Their wide popularity relies on further technical advances. D.They will replace all traditional medical detection tools. 35.What is the best title for the text? A.Advantages and Challenges of AI Wearables B.Bright Future for AI Wearables C.AI Wearables for Personal Health D.Risks of AI-powered Wearables 高二英语第8页（共12页) 8 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人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。 Building Cultural Confidence:A Guide for Young People Cultural confidence is not about ignoring other cultures,but about valuing your own while respecting others.It is a key quality for today's global youth.36 Learn Your Cultural Roots You won't love what you do not understand.37Spend time exploring your country's history,art,festivals and traditional values.Read classic literature,visit museums and talk to elders.

On Saturday morning,Samar arrived at the shelter with his dad.A volunteer led him to a soft,gray cat named Max.Thankfully,Max didn't judge him.He simply climbed onto Samar's lap,curled into a ball,and closed his eyes.Samar carried him to a corner with a worn-out chair,pulled out his book, Charlotte's Web,and began to read with many pauses. To his surprise,Max didn't care when Samar paused or mispronounced words.He didn't laugh or correct him.Instead,the cat made a low,soft sound.It was the most comforting sound Samar had ever heard,helping him forget his worries.For the first time,he wasn't reading to pass a test;he was reading to a friend.His voice grew steadier,and the words started to make sense. Samar was very excited to share his progress with his parents.He even told his next-door neighbour,Mrs Patel,about Max and his special experience.Every Saturday after that,Samar visited the shelter without fail.With Max as his silent teacher,his confidence grew rapidly.He once struggled with picture books,but now he happily read longer storybooks.Ms.Desai noticed his improvement right away and later awarded him the "Most Improved Reader"prize in class.Holding the certificate,Samar could not wait to show it to Max. 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。 But when Samar arrived at the shelter that weekend,Max was nowhere to be found.
