(停车管理员的职责是协助客人规范停放交通工具，告知客人停车步骤并解答问题。)”可知，停车管理员需要告知客人停车步骤并解答相关问题。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Ski Instructor中的“In particular, unlike the two positions above, you must work during the Christmas week. (特别是，与以上两个岗位不同，你必须在圣诞周上班。)”可知，滑雪教练的特殊任职要求是圣诞周在岗工作。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章依次介绍度假村停车管理员、儿童看护员、滑雪教练的岗位职责与任职条件，属于岗位招聘信息，面向求职人员发布。 B Putting on a large-scale concert calls for the joint efforts of numerous staff members, some people rise to fame as a result, while others, as unsung heroes, toil away behind the scenes. Do you know what a page-turner is? By day, Robert Titterton is a lawyer. In his spare time though he goes on stage beside pianist Maria Raspopova — not as a musician but as her page turner. “I’m not a trained musician, but I’ve learnt to read music so I can help Maria in her performance.” Mr Titterton is chairman of the Omega Ensemble but has been the group’s official page turner for the past four years. His job is to sit beside the pianist and turn the pages of the score so the musician doesn’t have to break the flow of sound by doing it themselves. He said he became just as nervous as those playing instruments on stage. “A lot of skills are needed for the job. You have to make sure you don’t turn two pages at once and make sure you find the repeats in the music when you have to go back to the right spot.” Mr Titterton explained. Being a page turner requires plenty of practice. Some pieces of music can go for 40 minutes and require up to 50 page turns, including back turns for repeat passages. Silent onstage communication is key, and each pianist has their own style of “nodding” to indicate a page turn which they need to practise with their page turner. But like all performances, there are moments when things go wrong. “I was turning the page to get ready for the next page, but the draft wind from the turn caused the spare pages to fall off the stand,” Mr Titterton said, “Luckily I was able to catch them and put them back.” Most page turners are piano students or up-and-coming concert pianists, although Ms Raspopova has once asked her husband to help her out on stage. “My husband is the worst page turner,” she laughed. “He’s interested in the music, feeling every note, and I have to say: ‘Turn, turn!’”. “Robert is the best page turner I’ve had in my entire life.” 4. What abilities should Titterton possess to work as a page turner? A. The ability to sing songs. B. The ability to play the piano. C. The ability to read music. D. The ability to repair the instruments. 5. Which description about Titterton is correct? A. As a page-turner, his job is demanding. B. As a page-turner, he has a high salary. C. As a page-turner, he often makes mistakes. D. As a page-turner, he communicates with the pianist verbally on stage. 6. How does Titterton exchange information with the pianist on stage? A. He communicates through languages. B. He communicates through recognizing the “nodding”. C. He communicates through performing in his own style. D. He communicates through listening to the rhythm of the music. 7. What can we know from the last paragraph? A. Ms Raspopova’s husband is so absorbed in music that he forgets to do his job. B. Ms Raspopova’s husband has no interest in music. C. Ms Raspopova’s husband often ignores the audience. D. Ms Raspopova’s husband has very poor eyesight. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了职业翻谱员罗伯特的工作内容、工作要求以及其幕后默默付出的职业价值。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“I’m not a trained musician, but I’ve learnt to read music so I can help Maria in her performance.(我不是受过训练的音乐家，但我学会了识谱，这样我就可以在玛丽亚的演出中帮助她)”可知，翻谱员需要具备识谱的能力。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段““A lot of skills are needed for the job. You have to make sure you don’t turn two pages at once and make sure you find the repeats in the music when you have to go back to the right spot.” Mr Titterton explained.(蒂特顿先生解释道：“这份工作需要很多技能。你必须确保不会一次翻两页，并且在需要返回正确位置时找到乐曲的重复段落。”)”以及第五段“Being a page turner requires plenty of practice.(成为一名翻谱员需要大量练习)”可知，翻谱员的工作要求很高、十分严苛。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Silent onstage communication is key, and each pianist has their own style of “nodding” to indicate a page turn which they need to practise with their page turner.(舞台上的无声交流是关键，每位钢琴家都有专属的点头方式示意翻谱，翻谱员需要和钢琴家配合练习)”可知，翻谱员通过识别钢琴家的点头动作交流配合。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的““My husband is the worst page turner,” she laughed. “He’s interested in the music, feeling every note, and I have to say: ‘Turn, turn!’”.(“我丈夫是最差劲的翻谱员，”她笑着说。“他沉浸在音乐中，感受每一个音符，我不得不喊：‘翻页，翻页！’”)”可知，拉斯波波娃女士的丈夫会因专注欣赏音乐而忘记翻页。 C With the development of science and technology, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is playing an increasingly important role in human society and continuously transforming people’s lives in numerous aspects. AI is revolutionizing (彻底变革) education in ways previously unimaginable. According to a 2023 report by the International Journal of Educational Technology, AI applications in classrooms have increased by 300% over the past five years. This rapid popularity reflects educators’ growing appreciation of AI’s possibility to advance learning experiences. One of the most significant applications is adaptive learning platforms. These AI-powered tools study students’ performance in real-time, adapting difficulty levels and providing personalized response. Research from Stanford University shows that students using such platforms achieve 23% higher retention rates (保留率) compared to traditional teaching methods. Dr. Helen Carter, an educational technologist at MIT, stresses, “AI doesn’t replace teachers but enables them to recognize learning gaps more effectively and personalize instruction accordingly.” Beyond personalized learning, AI is also changing judging methods. Automated essay scoring systems can now judge student writing with remarkable correctness, while AI-powered analytics help teachers track class-wide progress instantly. A 2024 UNESCO study found that schools using AI-assisted scoring saved an average of 6 hours per week, allowing educators to focus more on individual student needs. However, concerns remain about possible disadvantages. Professor David Miller from Harvard warns against overdependence, “AI systems trained on limited databases may generate problems if not carefully monitored.” His 2024 study found that 17% of AI-powered response contained cultural assumptions that didn’t match learners’ contexts. Additionally, some educators worry that AI overusing might reduce key human interaction in the learning process. The agreement among researchers is that AI works best as an assistant rather than a replacement. A comprehensive meta-analysis of 50 studies (Johnson et al., 2024) concluded that blended learning — combining AI tools with human instruction — brings the highest student engagement and achievement levels. The report stresses that proper teacher training and clear moral guidelines are necessary for successful application. As Dr. Carter observes, “The future of education isn’t AI or teachers — it’s AI and teachers working together.” 8. Which of the following statements about the application of AI in education is TRUE? A. AI applications in classrooms have increased to 300% over the past five years. B. Schools using AI-assisted scoring saved an average of 6 hours per day. C. The application of AI in education has only advantages and no disadvantages. D. The future of education is AI and teachers working together. 9. What can be inferred about Dr. Helen Carter’s attitude toward AI in education? A. She supports AI as a tool to help teachers, not replace them. B. She thinks AI is only useful for grading essays. C. She believes AI will finally replace teachers. D. She warns that AI will create more problems in education. 10. The word “blended” in paragraph 5 most likely means ________. A. produced B. mixed C. ignored D. played 11. What is the author’s reason for writing this article? A. To challenge the use of AI in schools. B. To recommend a specific AI learning platform. C. To explain how AI is changing education. D. To argue that teachers will lose their jobs because of AI. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍人工智能正在全方位变革教育，介绍其优势、现存隐患，并指出人机结合才是教育未来的发展方向。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“As Dr. Carter observes, “The future of education isn’t AI or teachers — it’s AI and teachers working together.”(正如卡特博士所言：“教育的未来不是人工智能或教师，而是人工智能与教师协同合作。”)”可知，教育的未来是人工智能与教师协作育人。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Dr. Helen Carter, an educational technologist at MIT, stresses, “AI doesn’t replace teachers but enables them to recognize learning gaps more effectively and personalize instruction accordingly.”(麻省理工学院教育技术专家海伦·卡特博士强调：“人工智能不会取代教师，而是让教师能够更高效地发现学习漏洞，并据此开展个性化教学。”)”可知，卡特博士支持人工智能作为辅助教师的工具，而非取代教师。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第五段中的“combining AI tools with human instruction — brings the highest student engagement and achievement levels(将人工智能工具与人工教学相结合——能让学生拥有最高的参与度和学习成效)”可知，将人工智能和人工教学相结合的是混合式学习，由此猜测blended意为“混合的、结合的”，与mixed同义。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，文章首段提出人工智能正在彻底变革教育，接着依次介绍人工智能在个性化学习、教学评分方面的应用优势，同时指出其存在的弊端，最后阐述人工智能与教师结合的最优教育模式。全文旨在介绍人工智能如何改变教育领域。 D With the development of society, humans keep generating massive amounts of waste, making the earth we live on hard to survive, consequently, numerous waste disposal methods have been developed. Landfills are places where a large amount of waste and other refuse (垃圾) is buried in the ground. However, they are responsible for releasing a large amount of planet-warming methane gas into the atmosphere, a new study suggests. The study, which was published in Science Advances on Wednesday, is aimed at helping local governments carry out targeted efforts to limit global warming by identifying areas of major concern. For this purpose, the scientists used satellite data from four major cities around the world — Delhi and Mumbai in India, Lahore in Pakistan and Buenos Aires in Argentina. Based on the collected data, the scientists have drawn the conclusion that landfills are the third-largest source of methane emissions (排放) worldwide, after oil and gas systems and agriculture. And further investigation shows that the methane released from the landfills is generated from the decomposition (分解) of natural waste in them, like food, wood or paper. Methane, though only accounting for about 11 percent of greenhouse gas emissions, traps 80 times more heat in the atmosphere than CO₂. Scientists estimate that at least 25 percent of today’s warming is driven by methane from human actions. That’s why landfills are partly to blame for the global warming. Joannes Maasakkers, a leader of the study, said, “We found that these landfills, which are relatively small compared to city sizes, are responsible for a large part of total emissions from a given area.” Another scientist, Euan Nisbet, who was not part of the study, said, “This new work shows just how important it is to manage landfills better, especially in countries like India where landfills are often on fire, resulting in a wide range of damaging pollutants (污染物)” He also added that the newer satellite technology and on-the-ground research make it easier for researchers to identify “who is polluting the world”. 12. -Why did the scientists carry out the study? A. To reduce the emission of the methane. B. To clarify which places people are concerned about. C. To test out the new satellite technology. D. To help the authorities control the global warming. 13. What do we know about methane gas according to the passage? A. Methane prevents more heat in the air from escaping than CO₂ does. B. Methane makes up most of the greenhouse gases. C. More methane is released from landfills than from agriculture. D. There exists methane in food, wood and paper. 14. What’s Euan Nisbet’s attitude towards the study? A. Unclear. B. Concerned. C. Favourable. D. Doubtful. 15. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. Landfills are to blame for the release of much methane. B. Satellite data help identify the source of the pollutants. C. Methane causes the temperature of the earth to go up. D. Waste and other refuse should be forbidden for their impact. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍研究发现垃圾填埋场是全球甲烷主要排放源之一，阐释甲烷的升温危害，并强调管控垃圾填埋场的重要意义。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The study, which was published in Science Advances on Wednesday, is aimed at helping local governments carry out targeted efforts to limit global warming by identifying areas of major concern.(这项于周三发表在《科学进展》上的研究，旨在通过识别重点关注区域，帮助地方政府开展针对性的减缓全球变暖工作)”可知，科学家开展这项研究是为了助力相关部门管控全球变暖。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Methane, though only accounting for about 11 percent of greenhouse gas emissions, traps 80 times more heat in the atmosphere than CO₂.(甲烷虽然仅占温室气体排放量的约11%，但其在大气中锁住的热量是二氧化碳的80倍)”可知，甲烷比二氧化碳更能锁住空气中的热量，阻碍热量散失。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“Another scientist, Euan Nisbet, who was not part of the study, said, “This new work shows just how important it is to manage landfills better, especially in countries like India where landfills are often on fire, resulting in a wide range of damaging pollutants (污染物)” He also added that the newer satellite technology and on-the-ground research make it easier for researchers to identify “who is polluting the world”.(另一位并未参与该研究的科学家尤安・尼斯贝特称：“这项新研究充分说明，更好地管控垃圾填埋场十分重要，尤其是在印度这类国家，当地的垃圾填埋场时常起火，产生大量具有危害性的污染物。” 他还补充道，新式卫星技术与实地调研能让研究人员更轻松地找出 “污染地球的源头”)”可知，该科学家认可这项研究的价值，对此持赞同态度。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“However, they are responsible for releasing a large amount of planet-warming methane gas into the atmosphere, a new study suggests.(然而一项新研究表明，垃圾填埋场会向大气中释放大量导致全球变暖的甲烷气体)”、第三段中的“Based on the collected data, the scientists have drawn the conclusion that landfills are the third-largest source of methane emissions worldwide, after oil and gas systems and agriculture.(基于收集到的数据，科学家得出结论：垃圾填埋场是全球第三大甲烷排放来源，仅次于油气系统和农业)” 以及第四段“That’s why landfills are partly to blame for the global warming.(这就是垃圾填埋场需为全球变暖承担部分责任的原因)”可知，全文围绕垃圾填埋场释放大量甲烷、加剧变暖这一核心展开，即垃圾填埋场是大量甲烷排放的元凶。 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。 Enjoy Every Moment of Life “Life is precious… To a person nothing is more precious than their life.” ____16____ Many people rush through life going after big goals without stopping to appreciate the small joys around them.

So we must think twice before we act when dealing with such things. Only when we understand it on a deep level, can we solve it. Mo and Terry were best friends. Whether they were walking to school, doing homework or just hanging out at the weekend, they were hardly out of each other’s sight. But several weeks ago, Terry started to stay away from Mo, which confused Mo. This day, they had a physics exam, so Mo was waiting outside her class. She hated physics, because it was her worst subject. Terry looked back at her from the front, then looked away quickly. Mo thought she looked guilty. Terry didn’t have a problem with physics. “Hi, Mo. What’s wrong with Terry? I thought you were friends,” said one of her classmates, as Mo arrived. “Yes, so did I,” said Mo, “but she hasn’t spoken to me for two weeks. She promised to help me revise for the physics exam, but then she ignored all my calls and texts. And when I rang her house, her mum told me she was busy. She doesn’t remember who her friends are!” said Mo angrily. The other students were going into the exam room. The exam started. Mo couldn’t answer question number five. She looked up and saw Terry sitting in the next row. Mo was surprised. Terry was holding her phone under the table and she was reading from it. Is that how Terry always got good grades? She felt really angry at Terry but didn’t know what to do. It wasn’t fair! Mo never cheated and she failed lots of exams. Terry had already put her phone away when Mo looked up again. She looked back at Mo and smiled sadly. Actually, Terry’s family were having a terrible time: her father was in the hospital because of a heart attack. Her father had a big operation today, and Terry was very worried. She couldn’t wait to check her mother’s message on the phone. But Mo knew nothing about it. The bell rang. “Stop writing and put your pens down,” said Mr. Reed, a caring and easygoing teacher who was popular among students. Oh no, Mo hadn’t answered two of the questions. She was going to fail again! After the test, Mo wanted to talk to Terry, but she couldn’t find her. She was angry with Terry but she didn’t know what to do about Terry. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150字左右；2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Then, Mo decided to go to the office, telling Mr Reed something about Terry ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After knowing about the truth, Mo found she had misunderstood Terry, feeling guilty ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 Then, Mo decided to go to the office, telling Mr Reed something about Terry. The moment she saw Mr Reed, she said, “Mr. Reed, I think Terry might be cheating in the exam. I saw her looking at her phone under the table. I’m sure she was copying answers from it.” After hearing Mo’s words, he was angry. He couldn’t put up with anyone cheating. So he called Terry to his office right away. “Did you use your phone to cheat on the exam?” Seeing Mo’s presence, Terry understood what happened, and she took her phone out of the pocket and opened it. What surprised them was that Terry was so worried about her father’s illness that she couldn’t wait to check the message to know about his condition. After knowing about the truth, Mo found she had misunderstood Terry, feeling guilty. She understood the reasons why Terry had been avoiding her. She realized that true friendship meant supporting each other during tough times. She decided to make an apology to Terry and offer her support. After school, Mo found Terry all by herself and explained that she had misunderstood her. Terry felt happy after getting Mo’s understanding. They made up and became friends again, and they learned an important lesson about the value of friendship. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述特里因父亲住院心事重重疏远好友，考试时偷看手机查看家人消息，莫误以为她作弊并向老师举报，误会就此产生。 【详解】1. 段落续写 ① 由第一段首句可知，本段描写莫向里德老师举报特里考场手机作弊；老师十分生气，立刻传唤特里对峙；特里拿出手机，众人才得知她只是急于查看父亲手术情况的消息。 ② 由第二段首句可知，本段描写莫知晓真相后满心愧疚，懂得真正的友谊应当共渡难关；她主动找到特里诚恳道歉，二人重归于好，同时收获关于友情的感悟。 2. 续写线索 莫向老师举报特里考场作弊→老师传唤特里对峙→特里拿出手机道出父亲住院的实情→莫知晓全部真相心生愧疚→主动向特里道歉和解→二人重归于好，领悟友谊的真谛 3.词类激活 行为类 ①看见：see/spot/catch sight of ②忍受：put up with/bear 情绪类 ①生气的：angry/annoyed ②担心的：worried/concerned 【点睛】【高分句型1】The moment she saw Mr Reed, she quickly ran to him whispering, “Mr. Reed, I have something important to tell you.”（运用了the moment引导的时间状语从句） 【高分句型2】What surprised them was that Terry was so worried about her father’s illness that she couldn’t wait to check the message to know about his condition.（运用了what引导主语从句，第一个that引导表语从句，第二个that引导结果状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025—2026学年度下学期高二年级期末评价 英语试卷 考试时间：2026年6月26日上午8:00—10:00 试卷满分：150分 ★祝考试顺利★ 注意事项： 1. 答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡规定的位置上。 2. 答选择题时必须使用2B铅笔，将答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑;如需改动，用橡皮擦擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。 3. 答非选择题时，必须使用0.5毫米黑色签字笔，将答案书写在答题卡规定的位置上。 4. 所有题目必须在答题卡上作答，在试题卷上答题无效。 5. 考试结束后，将试题卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，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。每段录音播放两遍。 1.

Do you know what a page-turner is? By day, Robert Titterton is a lawyer. In his spare time though he goes on stage beside pianist Maria Raspopova — not as a musician but as her page turner. “I’m not a trained musician, but I’ve learnt to read music so I can help Maria in her performance.” Mr Titterton is chairman of the Omega Ensemble but has been the group’s official page turner for the past four years. His job is to sit beside the pianist and turn the pages of the score so the musician doesn’t have to break the flow of sound by doing it themselves. He said he became just as nervous as those playing instruments on stage. “A lot of skills are needed for the job. You have to make sure you don’t turn two pages at once and make sure you find the repeats in the music when you have to go back to the right spot.” Mr Titterton explained. Being a page turner requires plenty of practice. Some pieces of music can go for 40 minutes and require up to 50 page turns, including back turns for repeat passages. Silent onstage communication is key, and each pianist has their own style of “nodding” to indicate a page turn which they need to practise with their page turner. But like all performances, there are moments when things go wrong. “I was turning the page to get ready for the next page, but the draft wind from the turn caused the spare pages to fall off the stand,” Mr Titterton said, “Luckily I was able to catch them and put them back.” Most page turners are piano students or up-and-coming concert pianists, although Ms Raspopova has once asked her husband to help her out on stage. “My husband is the worst page turner,” she laughed. “He’s interested in the music, feeling every note, and I have to say: ‘Turn, turn!’”. “Robert is the best page turner I’ve had in my entire life.” 4. What abilities should Titterton possess to work as a page turner? A. The ability to sing songs. B. The ability to play the piano. C. The ability to read music. D. The ability to repair the instruments. 5. Which description about Titterton is correct? A. As a page-turner, his job is demanding. B. As a page-turner, he has a high salary. C. As a page-turner, he often makes mistakes. D. As a page-turner, he communicates with the pianist verbally on stage. 6. How does Titterton exchange information with the pianist on stage? A. He communicates through languages. B. He communicates through recognizing the “nodding”. C. He communicates through performing in his own style. D. He communicates through listening to the rhythm of the music. 7. What can we know from the last paragraph? A. Ms Raspopova’s husband is so absorbed in music that he forgets to do his job. B. Ms Raspopova’s husband has no interest in music. C. Ms Raspopova’s husband often ignores the audience. D. Ms Raspopova’s husband has very poor eyesight. C With the development of science and technology, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is playing an increasingly important role in human society and continuously transforming people’s lives in numerous aspects. AI is revolutionizing (彻底变革) education in ways previously unimaginable. According to a 2023 report by the International Journal of Educational Technology, AI applications in classrooms have increased by 300% over the past five years. This rapid popularity reflects educators’ growing appreciation of AI’s possibility to advance learning experiences. One of the most significant applications is adaptive learning platforms. These AI-powered tools study students’ performance in real-time, adapting difficulty levels and providing personalized response. Research from Stanford University shows that students using such platforms achieve 23% higher retention rates (保留率) compared to traditional teaching methods. Dr. Helen Carter, an educational technologist at MIT, stresses, “AI doesn’t replace teachers but enables them to recognize learning gaps more effectively and personalize instruction accordingly.” Beyond personalized learning, AI is also changing judging methods. Automated essay scoring systems can now judge student writing with remarkable correctness, while AI-powered analytics help teachers track class-wide progress instantly. A 2024 UNESCO study found that schools using AI-assisted scoring saved an average of 6 hours per week, allowing educators to focus more on individual student needs. However, concerns remain about possible disadvantages. Professor David Miller from Harvard warns against overdependence, “AI systems trained on limited databases may generate problems if not carefully monitored.” His 2024 study found that 17% of AI-powered response contained cultural assumptions that didn’t match learners’ contexts. Additionally, some educators worry that AI overusing might reduce key human interaction in the learning process. The agreement among researchers is that AI works best as an assistant rather than a replacement. A comprehensive meta-analysis of 50 studies (Johnson et al., 2024) concluded that blended learning — combining AI tools with human instruction — brings the highest student engagement and achievement levels. The report stresses that proper teacher training and clear moral guidelines are necessary for successful application. As Dr. Carter observes, “The future of education isn’t AI or teachers — it’s AI and teachers working together.” 8. Which of the following statements about the application of AI in education is TRUE? A. AI applications in classrooms have increased to 300% over the past five years. B. Schools using AI-assisted scoring saved an average of 6 hours per day. C. The application of AI in education has only advantages and no disadvantages. D. The future of education is AI and teachers working together. 9. What can be inferred about Dr. Helen Carter’s attitude toward AI in education? A. She supports AI as a tool to help teachers, not replace them. B. She thinks AI is only useful for grading essays. C. She believes AI will finally replace teachers. D. She warns that AI will create more problems in education. 10. The word “blended” in paragraph 5 most likely means ________. A. produced B. mixed C. ignored D. played 11. What is the author’s reason for writing this article? A. To challenge the use of AI in schools. B. To recommend a specific AI learning platform. C. To explain how AI is changing education. D. To argue that teachers will lose their jobs because of AI. D With the development of society, humans keep generating massive amounts of waste, making the earth we live on hard to survive, consequently, numerous waste disposal methods have been developed. Landfills are places where a large amount of waste and other refuse (垃圾) is buried in the ground. However, they are responsible for releasing a large amount of planet-warming methane gas into the atmosphere, a new study suggests. The study, which was published in Science Advances on Wednesday, is aimed at helping local governments carry out targeted efforts to limit global warming by identifying areas of major concern. For this purpose, the scientists used satellite data from four major cities around the world — Delhi and Mumbai in India, Lahore in Pakistan and Buenos Aires in Argentina. Based on the collected data, the scientists have drawn the conclusion that landfills are the third-largest source of methane emissions (排放) worldwide, after oil and gas systems and agriculture. And further investigation shows that the methane released from the landfills is generated from the decomposition (分解) of natural waste in them, like food, wood or paper. Methane, though only accounting for about 11 percent of greenhouse gas emissions, traps 80 times more heat in the atmosphere than CO₂. Scientists estimate that at least 25 percent of today’s warming is driven by methane from human actions. That’s why landfills are partly to blame for the global warming. Joannes Maasakkers, a leader of the study, said, “We found that these landfills, which are relatively small compared to city sizes, are responsible for a large part of total emissions from a given area.” Another scientist, Euan Nisbet, who was not part of the study, said, “This new work shows just how important it is to manage landfills better, especially in countries like India where landfills are often on fire, resulting in a wide range of damaging pollutants (污染物)” He also added that the newer satellite technology and on-the-ground research make it easier for researchers to identify “who is polluting the world”. 12. -Why did the scientists carry out the study? A. To reduce the emission of the methane. B. To clarify which places people are concerned about. C. To test out the new satellite technology. D. To help the authorities control the global warming. 13. What do we know about methane gas according to the passage? A. Methane prevents more heat in the air from escaping than CO₂ does. B. Methane makes up most of the greenhouse gases. C. More methane is released from landfills than from agriculture. D. There exists methane in food, wood and paper. 14. What’s Euan Nisbet’s attitude towards the study? A. Unclear. B. Concerned. C. Favourable. D. Doubtful. 15. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. Landfills are to blame for the release of much methane. B. Satellite data help identify the source of the pollutants. C. Methane causes the temperature of the earth to go up. D. Waste and other refuse should be forbidden for their impact. 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。 Enjoy Every Moment of Life “Life is precious… To a person nothing is more precious than their life.” ____16____ Many people rush through life going after big goals without stopping to appreciate the small joys around them.

Sometimes they can cause great harm. So we must think twice before we act when dealing with such things. Only when we understand it on a deep level, can we solve it. Mo and Terry were best friends. Whether they were walking to school, doing homework or just hanging out at the weekend, they were hardly out of each other’s sight. But several weeks ago, Terry started to stay away from Mo, which confused Mo. This day, they had a physics exam, so Mo was waiting outside her class. She hated physics, because it was her worst subject. Terry looked back at her from the front, then looked away quickly. Mo thought she looked guilty. Terry didn’t have a problem with physics. “Hi, Mo. What’s wrong with Terry? I thought you were friends,” said one of her classmates, as Mo arrived. “Yes, so did I,” said Mo, “but she hasn’t spoken to me for two weeks. She promised to help me revise for the physics exam, but then she ignored all my calls and texts. And when I rang her house, her mum told me she was busy. She doesn’t remember who her friends are!” said Mo angrily. The other students were going into the exam room. The exam started. Mo couldn’t answer question number five. She looked up and saw Terry sitting in the next row. Mo was surprised. Terry was holding her phone under the table and she was reading from it. Is that how Terry always got good grades? She felt really angry at Terry but didn’t know what to do. It wasn’t fair! Mo never cheated and she failed lots of exams. Terry had already put her phone away when Mo looked up again. She looked back at Mo and smiled sadly. Actually, Terry’s family were having a terrible time: her father was in the hospital because of a heart attack. Her father had a big operation today, and Terry was very worried. She couldn’t wait to check her mother’s message on the phone. But Mo knew nothing about it. The bell rang. “Stop writing and put your pens down,” said Mr. Reed, a caring and easygoing teacher who was popular among students. Oh no, Mo hadn’t answered two of the questions. She was going to fail again! After the test, Mo wanted to talk to Terry, but she couldn’t find her. She was angry with Terry but she didn’t know what to do about Terry. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150字左右；2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Then, Mo decided to go to the office, telling Mr Reed something about Terry ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After knowing about the truth, Mo found she had misunderstood Terry, feeling guilty ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
