The crowded carriages and constant noise make the journey feel like a tiring routine.Aiming to transform this urban experience,Transport for London (TfL)started a program titled "Poetry on the Underground".Instead of traditional commercial advertisements,some carriages now display colorful posters featuring short poems.These works,which show the city's dynamic cultural diversity,give voice to different communities across the capital. Writer Joseph Coelho,who led the project,shared his view:"We aimed to create a 'pause button'in the middle of the busy morning.It provides a short moment of beauty without requiring a screen or an app."In an age where people are always staring at their phones,these poems encourage passengers to look up and connect with the world around them. The feedback has been divided.While numerous passengers praised it as a "lifeline"that brightens their day,some critics said it was unrealistic.They argue that TfL should focus on dealing with severe overcrowding rather than such artistic efforts.However,statistics show a noticeable increase in participation; TfL's social media activity has risen sharply by 40%since the project's launch. 高二英语第3页（共8页) Not discouraged by the criticism,Coelho is actively extending the project's reach."We recently invited amateur poets nationwide to submit original works for an upcoming collection,"he explained.The huge response-receiving nearly 5,000 entries-shows a great interest in poetry among the public. Coelho regards the project as a necessary cure for modem life."In an era driven by speed and efficiency, allowing people to slow down and read is a bold act.These seemingly minor gestures are exactly what make a big city warm and human."Through simple poems,the underground is becoming a moving gallery of human emotion. 24.Why did TfL start the program "Poetry on the Underground"? A.To replace ads. B.To provide a short getaway. C.To show cultural diversity. D.To attract more commuters. 25.What can we infer from passengers'feedback on the project? A.It has gained full public approval. B.It has drawn little online attention. C.It has solved subway overcrowding. D.It has aroused wide online debate. 26.What has Joseph Coelho been doing recently? A.Promoting classic poems. B.Building a poetry platform. C.Gathering poems from non-professional poets. D.Launching a campaign for better public transport. 27.Which statement would Joseph Coelho mostly agree with? A.Small acts brighten urban life. B.Speed ruins modern life. C.Transport problems come first. D.Poetry cures phone addiction. C We all know that physical appearance matters to many people.However,a dangerous new trend among young men is raising serious worry.While many turn to healthy habits to improve their confidence, "looksmaxxing"takes this desire to an extreme level. Looksmaxxing is a trend where young men try their best to become as physically attractive as possible.It can include simple lifestyle changes,but many followers use risky methods.Some even use invasive ( ways,such as applying pressure to facial bones to change the shape of their jaw.The extreme design of these methods aims to create a"strong jawline"and a more traditionally male look. In fact,it is a trend that relies on unproven and often harmful techniques.From cosmetic surgery to risky "bone reshaping",many of these practices are not controlled properly.Users often share these methods on social media,spreading wrong information widely.Because many of these steps are done without professional help,they greatly increase the risk of permanent damage in bodies.Rather than focusing on overall health,the trend only cares about surface-level changes,often leading to dangerous choices. What's more,the obsession with appearance has severe effects on mental health.Always chasing an impossible ideal leads to anxiety,low self-respect,and body image problems.In addition,the financial cost of these procedures can lead to debt and further stress,creating a terrible cycle. Many experts are speaking out against this trend.Dr.Stuart Murray warns that young men are falling into the trap of never being satisfied with themselves.Mental health experts encourage building self-respect through lasting ways,like developing skills,hobbies,and healthy relationships."We believe in building real confidence,not just a temporary appearance,"said one expert. 高二英语第4页（共8页) 28.What can be learned about looksmaxxing from Paragraph 1? A.It promotes healthy habits. B.It reaches harmful extremes. C.It gains support of doctors. D.It targets people of all ages. 29.What risk does looksmaxxing bring? A.Danger of physical harm. B.Loss of personal hobbies. C.Decline in social popularity. D.Spread of fitness methods. 30.What can be inferred about the experts'advice? A.Outer beauty helps build self-respect. B.Inner quality matters more than appearance. C.Cosmetic procedures build true confidence. D.Temporary images bring lasting happiness. 31.What does the text mainly talk about? A.New cosmetic surgery methods. B.Methods to build true confidence. C.Harmful effects of looksmaxxing. D.Healthy lifestyles for young men. D Hyundai,the South Korean car maker,has announced a major plan to produce 30,000 human-shaped robots into its car plants over the next decade. These robots,called Atlas,are produced by Boston Dynamics,a company owned by Hyundai.Atlas was first shown to the public at a tech show in Las Vegas.It is designed to facilitate collaboration between humans and robots.Unlike traditional factory robots,Atlas is built to work with human staff on the assembly line. According to Hyundai,Atlas will help turn hardware-driven machines into adaptive,AI-driven ones that increase human potential.A Hyundai vice-chairman admitted that while some workers may lose their jobs to Atlas,others will still be needed to train it. When a life-sized Atlas was recently put through its paces on stage,it amazed the audience with its human-like skill.The robot could turn,swing its arms,walk around,and keep excellent balance.These movements looked surprisingly natural. Hyundai expects Atlas to work alongside human workers,not simply replace them.The robots will collect information,leamn new movements,and keep improving through AI.A Boston Dynamics spokesperson noted that the combination of robotics and AI is more than a technological step forward.It is a transformative invention that will make human life safer and more rewarding. However,the company also stresses the importance of keeping control over this technology.Without careful rules and a clear understanding,humans risk being pushed aside in their own workplaces.The message from both Hyundai and Boston Dynamics is clear:we are at a turning point.We must act now to shape a future where smart robots serve human needs,not the other way around(而不是相反).A well--designed plan for living with human-shaped robots will decide whether this technology becomes a tool for progress or a source of social conflict. 32.What does the underlined phrase "facilitate collaboration"in paragraph 2 mean? A.Make teamwork easier. B.Prevent competition. C.Replace human workers. D.Study human behavior. 33.What is a feature of Atlas according to the text? A.It moves in a inflexible and unnatural way. B.It costs less than traditional factory machines. C.It can gather information and get better on its own. D.It is designed to replace human workers completely 高二英语 第5页（共8页） 34.What does the author urge pcople to do regarding Atlas? A.Stop kecping control over them. B.Develop them as quickly as possible. C.Train cvery worker to program them. D.Make sure humans stay in charge of them. 35.What is the author's attitude towards Atlas? A.Supportive.B.Cautious. C.Negative. D.Doubtful. 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。 How to Travel Abroad Alone as a Teenager Many teenagers dream of traveling abroad alone to explore the world and gain new experiences.The good news is that this goal is achievable,as long as you make careful preparations and follow special rules for minor travelers. 36 Laws and regulations for teenage travelers are not the same worldwide.Some countries,such as Portugal,require teenagers to carry a signed permission letter from both parents,which must be certified at an embassy before the trip.Other countries like Spain generally accept unaccompanied teens,but authorities may hold you if you run into trouble.

They were upset and decided something needed to be done to stop the beautiful sea becoming consumed by waste.One weekend,Maria and Peter brought a big bag to the beach and determined to clean it up.Sweat streamed down from their forehead while they bent down and picked up the plastic bags.To their disappointment,after a day's hard work,there were still many plastic bags lying on the beach or floating in the water.Going home with aching legs and arms,Maria and Peter were almost defeated by a strong sense of failure. That night over dinner with their parents,the pair ate silently.Noticing their low spirits,Mother asked gently,"You two looked so down.What happened?"Exchanging glances with Peter,Maria replied in a low voice,"It's those annoying plastic bags.We tried to clean up but it was just impossible."Understanding the pair's disappointment,their father patted them on the back and comforted,"Well,it's really hard for just two of you to fix such a big problem.""Just two of us."complained Maria and Peter,looking at each other. Suddenly,an idea flashed through their minds,their eyes shining with excitement."Yes,that's the point!We should make more people aware of the problem and encourage them to take action!"the pair said in chorus. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Quickly finishing their dinner,the pair went upstairs and started planning.
