Traditional educators often ________ great significance ________ memorizing facts, while modern teaching focuses more on critical thinking. A. attach; to B. rely; on C. switch; on D. max; out 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：传统教育者通常非常重视记忆事实，而现代教学更注重批判性思维。A. attach to附着于；B. rely on依赖；C. switch on打开；D. max out（钱）花光。根据句意可知，此处为动词短语attach great significance to sth 表示“高度重视某事”，符合语境。 5. According to new research, _____ we cook and eat food reflects the way that we treat life in a way. A. what B. where C. how D. when 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查主语从句。句意：按着新的研究，我们如何烹饪和食用食物反映了我们对待生活的方式。分析句子结构，句子没有主语，此处是how引导的主语从句做句子的主语，表示“方式”。故选C。 6. The scientists ________ the effects of climate change for over a decade. A. are studying B. studied C. have been studying D. had studied 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：科学家们研究气候变化的影响已经十多年了。此处为谓语动词，根据时间状语“for over a decade”可知，此处表示动作从过去某一时间开始一直持续到现在，并且可能还在继续，因此需要使用现在完成进行时。 7. ________ is now widely reported that extreme weather, which occurs frequently, has caused severe damage to coastal cities. A. As B. This C. What D. It 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：现在被广泛报道的是，频繁发生的极端天气已经对沿海城市造成了严重的破坏。本句中that引导主语从句，为了保持句子平衡，避免头重脚轻，使用it作为形式主语置于句首，真正的主语是that引导的从句，It is reported that...意为“据报道……”为常见的固定句型。 8. When I passed by, a new bridge ________ across the river. A. built B. was building C. was being built D. is being built 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：当我路过时，河上正在建一座新桥。根据时间状语从句“When I passed by”可知，主句表示在过去某一时刻正在发生的动作，应使用过去进行时；且主语“a new bridge”与动词“build”之间为被动关系，需使用被动语态，因此，此处应使用过去进行时的被动语态，其结构为“was/were being + 过去分词”，主语为第三人称单数，谓语动词为was being built。 9. When the rescuers arrived, they found the old man ________ for three days in the collapsed building. A. has been trapped B. had been trapped C. was trapped D. has trapped 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：当救援人员到达时，他们发现这位老人在倒塌的建筑里已经被困了三天。分析句子结构可知，found后为省略了引导词that的宾语从句。从句主语the old man与动词trap之间为被动关系，需用被动语态；且根据主句谓语动词found（一般过去时）以及从句中的时间状语for three days可知，“被困”这一动作发生在“发现”之前，表示“过去的过去”，故从句需用过去完成时的被动语态。 10. I ______ my grandmother at three o’clock this afternoon. A. will visit B. will have visited C. am visiting D. will be visiting 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查时态。句意：今天下午三点我将去看望我的祖母。分析句子结构，根据时间状语at three o’clock this afternoon可知句子表示的是在将来某个时间正在进行的动作，句子时态使用将来进行时，故选D项。 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D中，选出最佳答案，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A How Green Are Electric Vehicles? All too often, we have come to accept that electric vehicles are clean as they are powered by electricity. But how environmentally friendly is an electric car if its ultimate energy source is an oil-fired power station? Various studies show that electric cars are more efficient and produce fewer greenhouse gases than traditional petrol cars, even if an electric car uses electricity generated only by an oil power station. Let’s first have a glimpse of the types of electric vehicles in today’s market. Hybrid A hybrid car stores energy from its gas engine at higher speeds to charge an internal battery. It then uses this battery to power the car at lower speeds. It is much more efficient than an ordinary car. Plug-in hybrid A plug-in hybrid still uses a gas engine as its main power source, but it can also charge its battery from the electricity supply. Types of Electric Vehicles Range extender Some electric cars are named “range extenders”, as they are equipped with backup gas motors that charge the battery if the car runs low on power. Pure electric car A pure electric car charges its battery entirely from the electricity supply and powers its engine only from the battery. It produces zero emissions while driving. Although the environmental benefits of different electric vehicles depend partly on how the electricity is generated, the CO₂ emissions (排放) also matter in measuring their sustainability. Under similar conditions, including road, route, weather, weight, driver and so on, several tests have been conducted. The diagram below shows the CO₂ emissions (in grams) per kilometer for different types of vehicles. However, we also need to consider the environmental effects of building the car. A report by the Ricardo Consultancy estimated that production of an average petrol car will involve emissions amounting to the equivalent of 5.6 tonnes of CO₂, while for an average electric car, the figure is 8.8 tonnes. Of that, nearly half comes from battery production. To sum up, the same report assessed that over its whole life cycle, the electric car would still account for a considerable amount of CO₂ emissions. 11. Which type of electric vehicle has the lowest emissions? A. Hybrid. B. Plug-in hybrid. C. Pure electric car. D. Range extender. 12. What is the maximum amount of CO₂ an electric vehicle can release in tests? A. 83g. B. 125g. C. 57g. D. 74g. 13. What does the report reveal about the production of electric vehicles? A. It is environmentally friendly. B. It generates power from a battery. C. It is energy-consuming and costly. D. It results in higher CO₂ emissions. 【答案】11. C 12. A 13. D 【解析】 【导语】本文探讨了电动汽车环保性，介绍四类电动车工作原理，结合图表对比各类车型碳排放，并指出电动车生产阶段碳排放量高于燃油车。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据图片里“Pure electric car 57g、Range-extender 73g、Plug-in Hybrid 74g、Hybrid 83g (纯电57g、增程式73g、插混74g、混合动力车83g)”的数据对比可知，纯电动汽车的二氧化碳排放量最低。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据图片里“Pure electric car 57g、Range-extender 73g、Plug-in Hybrid 74g、Hybrid 83g (纯电57g、增程式73g、插混74g、混合动力车83g)”的数据对比可知，电动车里二氧化碳排放量最高的是Hybrid 83g。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“A report by the Ricardo Consultancy estimated that production of an average petrol car will involve emissions amounting to the equivalent of 5.6 tonnes of CO₂, while for an average electric car, the figure is 8.8 tonnes. (里卡多咨询公司的一份报告估计，一辆普通汽油车的生产所产生的排放量相当于5.6吨二氧化碳，而普通电动车的排放量则为8.8吨)”可知，电动车生产阶段会产生更高的二氧化碳排放。 B For decades, Chinese migrants overseas counted on qiaopi — letters containing words and money — to stay in touch with their families. These letters, composed by writers and sent with a legal stamp, held migrants’ emotional connection with family and greatly backed up families’ grocery shopping and children’s leisure. Today, 77-year-old Jiang Mingdian is one of the last remaining qiaopi writers keeping this tradition alive. For nearly sixty years, Jiang has sat at his street stand, helping people put difficult emotions into words. In the past, when many villagers were incapable of comprehending words, they flooded to Jiang’s stand for his special craft. He delicately phrased their messages, translating raw feelings of homesickness into comforting words. For wives waiting at home, Jiang often used the phrase “mountains and seas between them” to describe the painful distance, while their longing was depicted as a bridge across land and sea. When responses arrived from abroad, Jiang would read them aloud in the local dialect to anxious families. Language also matters. An English letter could cost ten times as much as a Chinese one, helping him support his family during tough times. To better serve his clients, Jiang showed incredible efforts. Although he never studied beyond middle school, he spent at least an hour every night teaching himself English, Spanish, and other languages through radio broadcasts and dictionaries. “People passing by once called me a fool for practicing foreign languages at my door,” Jiang recalls with a smile. With the rise of smartphones, traditional qiaopi have mostly disappeared. Yet, Jiang’s stall remains active. Today, locals still visit him to resolve family disputes or draft legal documents. He also works as a guide at the local Qiaopi Museum, sharing the history of these touching letters with students. “As long as people still need me,” Jiang says, “I will continue.” He stands as a living nameplate of an era, reminding us of the enduring power of handwritten love. 14. What can we learn about qiaopi from the beginning? A. It originally served as legal documents. B. It primarily sustained migrants’ ties. C. It was mainly used to cover daily expenses. D. It was composed of letters and clothing. 15. What makes Jiang’s qiaopi special? A. His knowledge of poems. B. His various writing skills. C. His impressive handwriting. D. His ability to express emotions. 16. Why did Jiang keep on practising foreign languages? A. To make a living. B. To develop his interest. C. To promote his service. D. To broaden his horizons. 17. What does Jiang’s experience show? A. Writing is a blessing. B. Craft bridges hearts. C. Knowledge is power. D. Practice makes perfect. 【答案】14. B 15. D 16. C 17. B 【解析】 【导语】主要讲述侨批代写人姜明典六十年来替乡人书写侨批，自学多国语言服务客户，坚守手艺传递跨越山海的亲情。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“For decades, Chinese migrants overseas counted on qiaopi — letters containing words and money — to stay in touch with their families. These letters, composed by writers and sent with a legal stamp, held migrants’ emotional connection with family and greatly backed up families’ grocery shopping and children’s leisure. (数十年来，海外华人依靠侨批——附有家书与钱款的信件——和家人保持联络。这类由专人代写、贴正规邮票寄出的信件维系着游子与家人的情感牵绊，还为家里的日常采买、子女休闲相关的开销提供了重要经济支撑。)”可知，侨批最核心的作用是维系海外移民与国内家人的情感纽带。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“For nearly sixty years, Jiang has sat at his street stand, helping people put difficult emotions into words. In the past, when many villagers were incapable of comprehending words, they flooded to Jiang’s stand for his special craft. He delicately phrased their messages, translating raw feelings of homesickness into comforting words. For wives waiting at home, Jiang often used the phrase “mountains and seas between them” to describe the painful distance, while their longing was depicted as a bridge across land and sea. (近六十年来，姜明典守在街边摊位，帮人们把难以诉说的情绪写成文字。过去许多村民不识字，纷纷来到他的摊位寻求他独特的手艺。他精心斟酌他们想要传达的话语，将浓烈原始的思乡之情转化为宽慰人心的文字。对于在家等候的妻子们，姜明典常用“山海相隔”来形容令人痛苦的距离，而彼此的思念则被描绘成一座跨越陆地与大海的桥梁。)”可知，姜明典代写侨批的独到之处在于擅长替人抒发复杂细腻的情感。 【16题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“To better serve his clients, Jiang showed incredible efforts. Although he never studied beyond middle school, he spent at least an hour every night teaching himself English, Spanish, and other languages through radio broadcasts and dictionaries. (为了更好地服务客人，姜先生付出了极大努力。虽然他仅读完中学，但每晚至少抽出一小时，借助广播和词典自学英语、西班牙语以及其他语种。)”可知，他坚持学习外语是为了完善自身服务、更好服务前来托付侨批的客人。 【17题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是尾段中的“He stands as a living nameplate of an era, reminding us of the enduring power of handwritten love. (他是一个时代鲜活的印记，让我们想起手写文字承载的爱意拥有长久动人的力量。)”可知，姜明典依靠代写侨批这门手艺传递思念、化解隔阂，搭建起相隔两地之人心灵沟通的桥梁，因此“手艺连通心灵”符合故事传递的内涵。 C The concept of grit — defined as the combination of passion and perseverance for long-term goals — has gained significant attention. According to psychologist Angela Duckworth, grit is often a stronger predictor of success than talent or intelligence. In her studies, individuals with higher grit scores were more likely to complete difficult training and achieve better grades. As she said, “Our potential is one thing. What we do with it is quite another.” This suggests that staying committed to goals is the real secret to success. What makes some people grittier than others? Psychologists point to a growth mindset — the belief that abilities can be developed through effort. People with this mindset view failure as an opportunity to learn rather than a reason to give up. Another key factor is self-control. A classic study known as the “marshmallow test” provides a great example. In the test, children were given one marshmallow. They were told that if they could wait for the researcher to return without eating it, they would receive a second one. Those who could delay gratification (延迟满足) tended to have better academic achievements and healthier lives later. Studies on the brain also show a biological basis for grit. The prefrontal cortex, a part of the brain involved in planning, plays a major role. When we face challenges, this area helps us stay focused and resist distractions. Additionally, the brain’s reward system releases dopamine (多巴胺) — a chemical that produces a sense of pleasure — when we make progress. This sense of accomplishment acts like a “natural battery,” motivating us to keep going even when the journey is difficult. The good news is that grit is not fixed; it can be cultivated. Anyone can develop it through practice. Setting clear goals and breaking them down into smaller steps can help us stay focused. The science of grit reminds us that talent is just the starting point. By staying committed and viewing setbacks as chances to grow, we can build the determination needed to achieve our dreams. 18. Which action might a grittier person take? A. Regard failure as a setback. B. Follow others’ actions blindly. C. Wait to obtain a future benefit. D. Adjust personal goals frequently. 19. How can the prefrontal cortex influence people? A. By acting as a “natural battery”. B. By rewarding with natural grit. C. By releasing distracting dopamine. D. By producing a motivating substance. 20. What is needed to develop grit? A. A thorough reflection on grit. B. A fixed and optimistic mindset. C. A systematic way of goal setting. D. A temporary and practical reminder. 21. What can we conclude about grit? A. It is related to self-control and persistence. B. It depends on biological foundations. C. It is an inborn passion and intelligence. D. It is based on personal goals and talents. 【答案】18. C 19. D 20. C 21. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍毅力的定义、预测成功的作用，分析毅力的两大影响因素、大脑生理基础，并说明毅力可以通过科学方法后天培养。 【18题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“In the test, children were given one marshmallow. They were told that if they could wait for the researcher to return without eating it, they would receive a second one. Those who could delay gratification (延迟满足) tended to have better academic achievements and healthier lives later.(在这项测试中，孩子们会得到一颗棉花糖。他们被告知，如果能等到研究员回来再吃，就能再得到一颗。那些能够做到延迟满足的孩子，日后往往拥有更好的学业成绩与更健康的生活)”可知，拥有更强毅力的人会愿意等待，以此获取未来的收益。 【19题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The prefrontal cortex, a part of the brain involved in planning, plays a major role. When we face challenges, this area helps us stay focused and resist distractions. Additionally, the brain’s reward system releases dopamine (多巴胺) — a chemical that produces a sense of pleasure — when we make progress.(前额叶皮层是大脑中负责规划的区域，起到重要作用。当我们面对挑战时，该区域帮助我们保持专注、抵御干扰。此外，当我们取得进步时，大脑奖赏系统会释放多巴胺——一种能产生愉悦感的化学物质)”可知，前额叶皮层保障人持续坚持，大脑释放多巴胺提供前进动力，即产生具有激励作用的物质。 【20题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The good news is that grit is not fixed; it can be cultivated. Anyone can develop it through practice. Setting clear goals and breaking them down into smaller steps can help us stay focused.(好消息是毅力并非天生固定，它可以被培养。任何人都能通过练习培养毅力。设定清晰目标并将其拆解为更小的步骤，能够帮助我们保持专注)”可知，培养毅力需要一套系统化的目标设定方法。 【21题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中的“The concept of grit — defined as the combination of passion and perseverance for long-term goals — has gained significant attention.(毅力的概念——定义为对长期目标的热情与坚持不懈的结合——已经获得广泛关注)”以及第二段中的“Another key factor is self-control.(另一个关键因素是自控力)”可知，毅力和自控力、坚持不懈密切相关。 D ChatGPT became the hottest issue due to its ability to produce human-sounding essays, poetry, and screenplays on virtually any subject in seconds. Soon after ChatGPT was released, the potential for it to be misused to do things such as spread misinformation and write unwanted emails became apparent. Schools and educators also have warned of the potential for students to use it to write essays or other work they have been assigned. Last December, the software passed all three parts of the U.S. Medical Licensing Examination as part of a research experiment. So OpenAI, the startup behind the viral chatbot, revealed a tool for detecting text generated by artificial intelligence during growing concerns that the technology will be abused by cheaters, unwanted mail senders, and others. OpenAI said that its so-called AI classifier was designed to help people distinguish between text written by a human and that by a range of artificial intelligence programs — not just ChatGPT. OpenAI said it had schools in mind when developing its latest classifier tool. “We recognize that identifying AI-written text has been an important point of discussion among educators, and equally important is recognizing the limits and impacts of AI-generated text classifiers in the classroom,” it said. The classifier isn’t good enough on its own, though it can be used to go with methods that educators, employers, and others rely on to determine the source of a piece of text. In evaluations, the new tool correctly identified 26% of AI-written text as “likely AI-written”, while it also had false positives 9% of the time, in which it incorrectly labeled human-written text as AI-written. Another problem is that the tool can’t easily tell if a list of facts — U.S. state capitals, for example — was written by a person or AI, because the correct answer would be the same. AI-written text can also be edited to escape the classifier. “While it is impossible to reliably detect all AI-written text, classifiers like ours can be updated and re-trained based on successful attacks,” OpenAI said. “But it is unclear whether detection has an advantage in the long-term.” 22. Why is the U.S. Medical Licensing Examination mentioned in Paragraph 1? A. To expose the misuse of AI. B. To justify concerns about AI. C. To show the popularity of AI. D. To pass a research experiment. 23. What do we know about the AI classifier? A. It detects unwanted emails. B. It takes little account of schools. C. It can identify all AI-written text. D. It may wrongly identify the text source. 24. What is OpenAI’s attitude towards the AI classifier? A. Optimistic. B. Uncertain. C. Cautious. D. Disapproving. 25. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. AI Text Detector: A Limited Tool B. OpenAI: A Chatbot Developer C. AI Classifier: A Useful Software D. ChatGPT: A Two-Sided Coin 【答案】22. B 23. D 24. C 25. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍OpenAI推出AI文本分类检测器，说明该工具的研发背景、适用场景，同时阐述其检测缺陷与OpenAI对该工具的客观看法。 【22题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“ChatGPT became the hottest issue due to its ability to produce human-sounding essays, poetry, and screenplays on virtually any subject in seconds.

For many who grew up with less, the true measure of wealth is found in the strength of their relationships. When material wealth is limited, the love from family and friends becomes valuable. ____27____ This view leads to a deep appreciation for genuine connections over material gains. Prioritizing these connections leads to a fulfilling life, which can never be replaced by money. Another insight from individuals who experienced poverty firsthand is that they don’t need more money than what they actually need. Experiencing life with limited wealth teaches the importance of distinguishing between needs and wants. Those who grew up poor often prioritize essentials. ____28____ This understanding leads to a minimalist mindset, where collecting more isn’t the goal. Instead, satisfaction lies in meeting basic needs and appreciating the simple pleasures in life. ____29____ Individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds often witness how poor health can worsen financial struggles. They value healthy habits and further recognize the importance of well-being. Investing in health becomes a fundamental principle, as it enables individuals to pursue goals and experience life fully. People who grew up in poverty often develop an incredible ability to maintain relationships, hold a positive mindset, and adopt healthy habits. They know how to connect with loved ones genuinely, how to diversify meals to ensure nutrition and how to find free or low-cost ways to enjoy life. ____30____ Even if they eventually achieve financial stability, this mindset stays with them forever. A. All too often, wealth is determined by how much one earns. B. This adaptability is a skill that serves them well throughout life. C. Limited access to healthcare highlights the importance of wellness. D. In fact, valuing non-material aspects is a necessary approach to success. E. These connections provide emotional support that money simply can’t buy. F. They learn to find satisfaction in what they have rather than what they lack. G. Those with limited resources understand that richness isn’t defined by money. 【答案】26. G 27. E 28. F 29. C 30. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍家境清贫的成长经历会让人领悟财富真正的内涵，懂得珍视情感、适度消费与身心健康等非物质财富。 【26题详解】 根据空前的“Growing up without financial advantages often teaches invaluable lessons about the true meaning of wealth.(在经济条件不好的环境中长大，往往能让人学到关于财富真正意义的宝贵道理。)”以及空后的“Instead, it’s about relationships, health, and a mindful approach to what life has to offer.(相反，它关乎人际关系、健康以及用心对待生活馈赠的态度。)”中的转折词Instead可知，空格处要提出人们对财富的错误定义，后文再进行纠正。G选项“Those with limited resources understand that richness isn’t defined by money(资源有限的人明白富足并非由金钱定义)”点明财富不等于金钱，与后文it指代的富足内涵形成转折对照，衔接顺畅，符合语境。 【27题详解】 根据空前的“When material wealth is limited, the love from family and friends becomes valuable.(当物质财富有限时，家人和朋友的关爱就变得弥足珍贵。)”以及空后的“This view leads to a deep appreciation for genuine connections over material gains.(这种观念让人深度珍视真挚情谊，而非物质利益。)”中的This view可知，空格内容要围绕亲友间的情感联结展开，进一步说明这类情感的价值。E选项“These connections provide emotional support that money simply can’t buy(这些情感联结能提供金钱买不到的精神支撑)”中These connections指代前文家人朋友之间的爱，承接上文，引出后文重视真情的观点，符合语境。 【28题详解】 根据空前的“Experiencing life with limited wealth teaches the importance of distinguishing between needs and wants. Those who grew up poor often prioritize essentials.(经历财富有限的生活让人明白分清刚需和欲望的重要性，贫寒出身的人通常优先满足生活必需品。)”以及空后的“This understanding leads to a minimalist mindset, where collecting more isn’t the goal.(这种认知会催生极简思维，不再以囤积更多东西为目标。)”可知，空格需要说明分清刚需与欲望带来的心态变化。F选项“They learn to find satisfaction in what they have rather than what they lack(他们学会知足常乐，不去纠结自己缺少什么)”中They指代前文家境贫寒的人，承接优先满足必需品的行为，引出后文极简心态，符合语境。 【29题详解】 分析语篇可知，此处为本段段首总起句，和前文段落结构保持一致。根据空后的“Individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds often witness how poor health can worsen financial struggles. They value healthy habits and further recognize the importance of well-being.(出身困苦的人常亲眼见证健康不佳会加剧经济困境，他们重视健康习惯，充分意识到身心健康的重要性。)”可知，本段核心围绕健康、身心安康展开。C选项“Limited access to healthcare highlights the importance of wellness(难以获得医疗资源的经历凸显了身心健康的重要性)”总领本段，引出后文健康与经济状况关联的论述，符合语境。 【30题详解】 根据空前的“They know how to connect with loved ones genuinely, how to diversify meals to ensure nutrition and how to find free or low-cost ways to enjoy life.(他们懂得真诚维系亲情、搭配饮食保证营养，还能找到免费或低成本的生活乐趣。)”以及空后的“Even if they eventually achieve financial stability, this mindset stays with them forever.(即便日后经济稳定，这种心态也会伴随一生。)”可知，空格需要总结前文多种生存生活能力带来的长远益处。B选项“This adaptability is a skill that serves them well throughout life(这种适应能力是伴随一生、让他们受益良多的本领)”中This adaptability指代前文多种独立生活、调节生活的能力，承接上文列举的各项能力，引出后文该特质长久留存的内容，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。 During my morning walks, I have developed a pleasant routine.

As the school team captain, he dreamed of leading his teammates to the district championship. However, three months before the grand final, disaster struck. During a hard training session, Leo fell heavily, breaking his right ankle. The doctor’s words were cold and final: “No basketball for at least half a year.” The news turned Leo’s world upside down. Lying on his bed, looking at his basketball sitting quietly in the corner, he fell into deep despair. Seeing his grandson sinking into self-pity, his grandfather, Mr. Johnson, walked into his room with the steady calm of a man who had seen a thousand battles. He was a legendary coach who had once led the local high school team to a national title, and his wisdom was well-known in the sports community. He placed an old stopwatch on Leo’s desk. “Leo,” his grandfather said softly, “sportsmanship isn’t just about running on the court. It’s about how you inspire others when you can’t move yourself. True champions are built behind the scenes.” Those words sparked something inside Leo. The next afternoon, Leo showed up at the court, leaning on his crutches (拐杖). “I may not be able to play,” he shouted, “but I can be your eyes from the sidelines!” From that day on, Leo took on the role of an assistant coach. When his teammate, Tom, was trapped by the defense, Leo shouted from the sidelines, “Watch the defender — pass it to Mike on the wing!” With every practice, they grew more united, trusting Leo’s eyes as if he were still on the court. Under his sideline leadership, the team’s spirit soared, and they successfully made it to the final match. The night of the final arrived. However, the opponents were incredibly tough, and by the end of the third quarter (篮球赛的一节), Leo’s team fell ten points behind. Disappointment and panic began to spread among his teammates. Their shoulders dropped, and a heavy silence filled the entire team. 注意： （1）续写的词数应为150左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Struggling with every step, Leo approached his discouraged teammates. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The team returned with determination as the final quarter began. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Struggling with every step, Leo approached his discouraged teammates. Leaning heavily on his crutches, he gathered them in a tight circle. “Look at me!” he urged, his voice firm and unwavering. “We’ve fought through the entire season to stand here. Ten points is nothing compared to our unbreakable spirit!” He looked into each player’s eyes, reminding them of the countless hours of sweat and the trust they had built together. “Trust yourselves, trust the game, and trust each other. We are one team!” His passionate words acted like a spark, instantly reigniting the fading fire in their hearts. The team returned with determination as the final quarter began. Fueled by Leo’s inspiring leadership, they played with a renewed, fierce energy. Every pass was precise, and every defense was solid, as if Leo’s tactical mind was still guiding them from the sidelines. The scoreboard began to shift in their favor. With seconds left on the clock, Tom executed a perfect play Leo had suggested, sinking the winning shot. The crowd erupted in deafening cheers. Though Leo couldn’t jump for joy, tears of pride blurred his vision. He had proven his grandfather right: a true champion can lead to victory even without stepping onto the court. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述篮球队长利奥意外脚踝受伤，被迫告别赛场，陷入绝望。在祖父的开导下，他转型担任助理教练，在场边指导队友、凝聚团队。决赛球队大幅落后、士气低迷，利奥挺身而出鼓舞队友，最终带领球队逆转取胜，诠释真正的体育精神的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写利奥强忍不适走近队员，用坚定有力的话语鼓舞士气，重新点燃团队斗志。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写队员们重拾斗志全力拼搏，执行战术逆转比分，赢得比赛，利奥领悟真正的冠军真谛。 2.续写线索：走近队员——暖心鼓舞——重燃斗志——奋力拼搏——逆转比分——赢得胜利——感悟真谛 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①聚集：gather/round up ②执行：executed/performed 情绪类 ①热情的：passionate/enthusiastic ②快乐：joy/delight 【点睛】[高分句型1] His passionate words acted like a spark, instantly reigniting the fading fire in their hearts.（运用了现在分词短语作状语） [高分句型2] Though Leo couldn’t jump for joy, tears of pride blurred his vision.（运用了though引导让步状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年第二学期期末质量检测 高二 英语 2026.7 注意事项： 1．本试卷共10页，满分130分，考试用时130分钟； 2．答卷前，考生务必将自己的学校，班级和姓名填在答题卡上，正确粘贴条形码； 3．作答选择题时，用2B铅笔在答题卡上将对应答案的选项涂黑； 4．非选择题的答案必须写在答题卡各题目的指定区域内相应位置上，不准使用铅笔和涂改液； 5．考试结束后，考生上交答题卡。 第一部分 单项选择（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 1.

All too often, we have come to accept that electric vehicles are clean as they are powered by electricity. But how environmentally friendly is an electric car if its ultimate energy source is an oil-fired power station? Various studies show that electric cars are more efficient and produce fewer greenhouse gases than traditional petrol cars, even if an electric car uses electricity generated only by an oil power station. Let’s first have a glimpse of the types of electric vehicles in today’s market. Hybrid A hybrid car stores energy from its gas engine at higher speeds to charge an internal battery. It then uses this battery to power the car at lower speeds. It is much more efficient than an ordinary car. Plug-in hybrid A plug-in hybrid still uses a gas engine as its main power source, but it can also charge its battery from the electricity supply. Types of Electric Vehicles Range extender Some electric cars are named “range extenders”, as they are equipped with backup gas motors that charge the battery if the car runs low on power. Pure electric car A pure electric car charges its battery entirely from the electricity supply and powers its engine only from the battery. It produces zero emissions while driving. Although the environmental benefits of different electric vehicles depend partly on how the electricity is generated, the CO₂ emissions (排放) also matter in measuring their sustainability. Under similar conditions, including road, route, weather, weight, driver and so on, several tests have been conducted. The diagram below shows the CO₂ emissions (in grams) per kilometer for different types of vehicles. However, we also need to consider the environmental effects of building the car. A report by the Ricardo Consultancy estimated that production of an average petrol car will involve emissions amounting to the equivalent of 5.6 tonnes of CO₂, while for an average electric car, the figure is 8.8 tonnes. Of that, nearly half comes from battery production. To sum up, the same report assessed that over its whole life cycle, the electric car would still account for a considerable amount of CO₂ emissions. 11. Which type of electric vehicle has the lowest emissions? A. Hybrid. B. Plug-in hybrid. C. Pure electric car. D. Range extender. 12. What is the maximum amount of CO₂ an electric vehicle can release in tests? A. 83g. B. 125g. C. 57g. D. 74g. 13. What does the report reveal about the production of electric vehicles? A. It is environmentally friendly. B. It generates power from a battery. C. It is energy-consuming and costly. D. It results in higher CO₂ emissions. B For decades, Chinese migrants overseas counted on qiaopi — letters containing words and money — to stay in touch with their families. These letters, composed by writers and sent with a legal stamp, held migrants’ emotional connection with family and greatly backed up families’ grocery shopping and children’s leisure. Today, 77-year-old Jiang Mingdian is one of the last remaining qiaopi writers keeping this tradition alive. For nearly sixty years, Jiang has sat at his street stand, helping people put difficult emotions into words. In the past, when many villagers were incapable of comprehending words, they flooded to Jiang’s stand for his special craft. He delicately phrased their messages, translating raw feelings of homesickness into comforting words. For wives waiting at home, Jiang often used the phrase “mountains and seas between them” to describe the painful distance, while their longing was depicted as a bridge across land and sea. When responses arrived from abroad, Jiang would read them aloud in the local dialect to anxious families. Language also matters. An English letter could cost ten times as much as a Chinese one, helping him support his family during tough times. To better serve his clients, Jiang showed incredible efforts. Although he never studied beyond middle school, he spent at least an hour every night teaching himself English, Spanish, and other languages through radio broadcasts and dictionaries. “People passing by once called me a fool for practicing foreign languages at my door,” Jiang recalls with a smile. With the rise of smartphones, traditional qiaopi have mostly disappeared. Yet, Jiang’s stall remains active. Today, locals still visit him to resolve family disputes or draft legal documents. He also works as a guide at the local Qiaopi Museum, sharing the history of these touching letters with students. “As long as people still need me,” Jiang says, “I will continue.” He stands as a living nameplate of an era, reminding us of the enduring power of handwritten love. 14. What can we learn about qiaopi from the beginning? A. It originally served as legal documents. B. It primarily sustained migrants’ ties. C. It was mainly used to cover daily expenses. D. It was composed of letters and clothing. 15. What makes Jiang’s qiaopi special? A. His knowledge of poems. B. His various writing skills. C. His impressive handwriting. D. His ability to express emotions. 16. Why did Jiang keep on practising foreign languages? A. To make a living. B. To develop his interest. C. To promote his service. D. To broaden his horizons. 17. What does Jiang’s experience show? A. Writing is a blessing. B. Craft bridges hearts. C. Knowledge is power. D. Practice makes perfect. C The concept of grit — defined as the combination of passion and perseverance for long-term goals — has gained significant attention. According to psychologist Angela Duckworth, grit is often a stronger predictor of success than talent or intelligence. In her studies, individuals with higher grit scores were more likely to complete difficult training and achieve better grades. As she said, “Our potential is one thing. What we do with it is quite another.” This suggests that staying committed to goals is the real secret to success. What makes some people grittier than others? Psychologists point to a growth mindset — the belief that abilities can be developed through effort. People with this mindset view failure as an opportunity to learn rather than a reason to give up. Another key factor is self-control. A classic study known as the “marshmallow test” provides a great example. In the test, children were given one marshmallow. They were told that if they could wait for the researcher to return without eating it, they would receive a second one. Those who could delay gratification (延迟满足) tended to have better academic achievements and healthier lives later. Studies on the brain also show a biological basis for grit. The prefrontal cortex, a part of the brain involved in planning, plays a major role. When we face challenges, this area helps us stay focused and resist distractions. Additionally, the brain’s reward system releases dopamine (多巴胺) — a chemical that produces a sense of pleasure — when we make progress. This sense of accomplishment acts like a “natural battery,” motivating us to keep going even when the journey is difficult. The good news is that grit is not fixed; it can be cultivated.

D ChatGPT became the hottest issue due to its ability to produce human-sounding essays, poetry, and screenplays on virtually any subject in seconds. Soon after ChatGPT was released, the potential for it to be misused to do things such as spread misinformation and write unwanted emails became apparent. Schools and educators also have warned of the potential for students to use it to write essays or other work they have been assigned. Last December, the software passed all three parts of the U.S. Medical Licensing Examination as part of a research experiment. So OpenAI, the startup behind the viral chatbot, revealed a tool for detecting text generated by artificial intelligence during growing concerns that the technology will be abused by cheaters, unwanted mail senders, and others. OpenAI said that its so-called AI classifier was designed to help people distinguish between text written by a human and that by a range of artificial intelligence programs — not just ChatGPT. OpenAI said it had schools in mind when developing its latest classifier tool. “We recognize that identifying AI-written text has been an important point of discussion among educators, and equally important is recognizing the limits and impacts of AI-generated text classifiers in the classroom,” it said. The classifier isn’t good enough on its own, though it can be used to go with methods that educators, employers, and others rely on to determine the source of a piece of text. In evaluations, the new tool correctly identified 26% of AI-written text as “likely AI-written”, while it also had false positives 9% of the time, in which it incorrectly labeled human-written text as AI-written. Another problem is that the tool can’t easily tell if a list of facts — U.S. state capitals, for example — was written by a person or AI, because the correct answer would be the same. AI-written text can also be edited to escape the classifier. “While it is impossible to reliably detect all AI-written text, classifiers like ours can be updated and re-trained based on successful attacks,” OpenAI said. “But it is unclear whether detection has an advantage in the long-term.” 22. Why is the U.S. Medical Licensing Examination mentioned in Paragraph 1? A. To expose the misuse of AI. B. To justify concerns about AI. C. To show the popularity of AI. D. To pass a research experiment. 23. What do we know about the AI classifier? A. It detects unwanted emails. B. It takes little account of schools. C. It can identify all AI-written text. D. It may wrongly identify the text source. 24. What is OpenAI’s attitude towards the AI classifier? A. Optimistic. B. Uncertain. C. Cautious. D. Disapproving. 25. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. AI Text Detector: A Limited Tool B. OpenAI: A Chatbot Developer C. AI Classifier: A Useful Software D.

As the school team captain, he dreamed of leading his teammates to the district championship. However, three months before the grand final, disaster struck. During a hard training session, Leo fell heavily, breaking his right ankle. The doctor’s words were cold and final: “No basketball for at least half a year.” The news turned Leo’s world upside down. Lying on his bed, looking at his basketball sitting quietly in the corner, he fell into deep despair. Seeing his grandson sinking into self-pity, his grandfather, Mr. Johnson, walked into his room with the steady calm of a man who had seen a thousand battles. He was a legendary coach who had once led the local high school team to a national title, and his wisdom was well-known in the sports community. He placed an old stopwatch on Leo’s desk. “Leo,” his grandfather said softly, “sportsmanship isn’t just about running on the court. It’s about how you inspire others when you can’t move yourself. True champions are built behind the scenes.” Those words sparked something inside Leo. The next afternoon, Leo showed up at the court, leaning on his crutches (拐杖). “I may not be able to play,” he shouted, “but I can be your eyes from the sidelines!” From that day on, Leo took on the role of an assistant coach. When his teammate, Tom, was trapped by the defense, Leo shouted from the sidelines, “Watch the defender — pass it to Mike on the wing!” With every practice, they grew more united, trusting Leo’s eyes as if he were still on the court. Under his sideline leadership, the team’s spirit soared, and they successfully made it to the final match. The night of the final arrived. However, the opponents were incredibly tough, and by the end of the third quarter (篮球赛的一节), Leo’s team fell ten points behind. Disappointment and panic began to spread among his teammates. Their shoulders dropped, and a heavy silence filled the entire team. 注意： （1）续写的词数应为150左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Struggling with every step, Leo approached his discouraged teammates. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The team returned with determination as the final quarter began. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
