Before her flight,Benthaus prepared to address her physical limitations in microgravity.

The journey,which took around ten minutes,rocketed Koenigsmann,Benthaus,and four other passengers above Earth's surface.They traveled at more than three times the speed of sound At the peak of the flight path,passengers experienced a brief period of weightlessness. Benthaus prepared a strap()for her legs beforehand to keep her legs bound so she could leave her seat and look at the Earth from outside the window."I did really love the view and the microgravity phase,and I also loved all the going up,"she shared. Benthaus began using a wheelchair after a 2018 mountain biking accident left her with spinal cord injuries.Her space journey was part of a campaign to raise money for the nonprofit Wings of Life that researches spinal cord injuries.Her injuries made her more aware of the challenges faced by people with disabilities."After my accident,I really figured out how inaccessible our world still is,"she said.

U Microplastics are widely known for polluting oceans,rivers,and farmland.New research now shows these tiny plastic particles()also arrive through the air and gradually build up in forest soils.Geoscientists at TU Darmstadt report this finding in a study published in Nature Communications Earth&Environment,highlighting a largely overlooked form of environmental pollution. "The microplastics from the atmosphere initially settle on the leaves of the tree crowns," explains lead author Dr.Collin J.Weber."Then the particles are transported to the forest soil by rain or the autumn leaf fall,for example. To better understand how microplastics gather,the research team collected samples from four forest sites east of Darmstadt in Germany.They analyzed soil,fallen leaves,and atmospheric deposition-the transport of substances from the Earth's atmosphere to the Earth's surface-using a newly developed method combined with spectroscopic ( techniques.In addition,the scientists created a model to estimate how much microplastic has entered forests from the atmosphere since the 1950s.This helped them assess how much of the total pollution stored in forest soils can be traced back to airborne sources. "Our results indicate that microplastics in forest soils originate primarily from atmospheric deposition and from leaves falling to the ground,known as litterfall.Other sources,on the other hand,have only a minor influence,"explains Weber."We conclude that forests are good indicators of atmospheric microplastic pollution and that a high concentration of microplastics in forest soils indicates a high input of particles from the air into these ecosystems." The findings provide an important foundation for evaluating the environmental risks of microplastics in both air and soil."Forests are already threatened by climate change,and our findings suggest that microplastics could now pose an additional threat to forest ecosystems," says Weber.The results may also have implications for human health,as they reveal how microplastics travel globally through the atmosphere and may be present in the air we breathe. 28.What did the researchers do for the study? A.They transported better soils to four forest sites. B.They mainly analyzed data from the 19th century. C.They created a model for improving global air quality. D.They combined field sampling with laboratory techniques. 29.What does Weber say about microplastics in forest soils in paragraph 4? A.They come from a single source. B.They can be reduced by litterfall. C.They have little impact on ecosystems.D.They might reflect air pollution levels. 【高二期末考试·英语第4页（共8页）】 26-L-699B 30.What does the last paragraph focus on?

D The promise of artificial intelligence has been simple:let the machines help do the work. However,it may be creating a new headache from taking care of the machines.A new study suggests that instead of making work easier,AI may be giving some workers what researchers are calling“brain fry.” Researchers surveyed about 1,500 workers and found that people constantly bouncing between multiple AI tools reported more decision fatigue(and more errors.About one in seven workers said they had experienced mental fatigue from using AI tools at work. "AI can run far ahead of us,but we're still here with the same brain we had yesterday, said Julie Bedard,managing director and partner at Boston Consulting Group and an author of the study.She said the findings are an early warning sign that expectations around AI productivity may need recalibrating."AI is good in some ways for work,"Bedard said. "However,intensive oversight of AI leads to mental burnout, For people working deeply with AI tools,the concept of "brain fry"is nothing new.Jack Downey,Head of Strategy,Operations and Product at Webster Pass Consulting,uses AI daily to build automation systems and finds there is additional mental pressure that comes from Al workflows."I usually have several different windows open...constantly waiting..."he said. "It might take five seconds to do one task,50 seconds to do another task,and five minutes to do another task.” "For years,many predictions about AI suggested the technology would allow fewer workers to do more work faster.But if AI is already pushing workers toward mental overload,organizations may need to rethink those assumptions,"Bedard said. If businesses don't figure that out,their bottom lines may suffer.Workers experiencing AI brain fry reported more mistakes,slower decision-making,and higher fatigue.Bedard is clear that the solution is not abandoning AI,but rethinking how human workers best interact with these tools as AI develops fast. 32.What does the underlined word "recalibrating"in paragraph 3 probably mean? A.Recalling. B.Readjusting. C.Repeating. D.Recognizing. 33.What is a problem for Downey? A.Incapability to use AI as an assistant. B.Little knowledge of updating AI tools. C.Unfamiliarity with automation systems. D.Stress from AI-assisted multi-tasking. 34.What does Bedard suggest businesses do? A.Balance the human worker-AI relationship B.Give up on the use of interactive AI tools. C.Assign AI tools to make more decisions. D.Replace more human workers with AI tools. 35.Which of the following is the best title for the text? A.AI Can Cause Human Workers'Mental Burnout B.The Challenges of Employing Various AI Tools C.The Essential Role AI Plays in the Workplace D.AI Productivity Motivates Humans to Work Harder 【高二期末考试·英语第5页（共8页）】 26-L-699B 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可以填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。 Starting college studies can feel challenging.36.Here are core study strategies from experts to make your learning more effective. Prioritize steady learning over leaving everything to the final days.Putting off schoolwork is a common problem for new college students,who often struggle to adjust to heavier workloads.37,rather than helping students gain real mastery of the material.Instead of leaving all work for exams,build a regular study schedule and stick to it. 38.You don't have to struggle with tough material alone.College offers plenty of help,from professors to campus resource centers,and it's important to ask for assistance early before falling behind.Connect with classmates to form study groups,too.Explaining content to each other,quizzing one another and building a support network make learning far more manageable. Take intentional breaks for better memory.Your brain can only absorb a limited amount of information at a time.Research shows wakeful rest between study sessions is as important as practice itself,as it allows your brain to consolidate and store new memories. Make sure to add enough breaks,relaxation and sleep to your study routine.39. o Review actively and set clear goals.Simply reviewing notes isn't enough-active practice like self-quizzing with flashcards creates"desirable difficulties"that boost long-term learning,just as weightlifting strengthens muscles.40 define actionable plans,measurable benchmarks,and time-bound tasks that fit your academic calendar.This way,you can track progress and stay motivated throughout your learning journey. A.But even the best study plans require flexibility B.Seek academic support and study with fellow students C.Also,set specific,realistic study goals using a proper method D.Make detailed plans for campus activities and after-class hobbies E.This refreshes your mind and helps it accept new information more easily F.Research suggests this practice only improves short-term test performance G.However,smart study habits can build your confidence and lead to success 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。 For Krystyna Locke,birthdays are no longer just about cake and candles-they have evolved into a meaningful opportunity to spread 41.After living with lymphoma() for 20 years,she 42 to celebrate her recent birthday by supporting others on similar 43 journeys.

But my joy was short-lived.When I turned around a corner,I heard a loud,sharp sound behind me.My heart stopped after I realized that I had run into a car parked by the roadside and left a long,ugly scratch on its door. I slowed down and jumped off my bike to have a closer look.I froze there and imagined what my dad would do.I looked around nervously and found the street completely empty.No one had seen the accident!A tempting idea flashed through my mind. “Why not just run away?”I argued with myself.“No one would ever know.." For a brief moment,I yielded to the impulse.I leapt onto my bike and rode as fast as I could.However,the farther I went,the heavier my heart felt.Overcome by guilt,I made the difficult decision to return to the scene. I found a notebook in my backpack and wrote a note,I put down my name,address,and apologized sincerely for what had happened.I carefully placed the note under the car's windshield wiper. The school day that followed seemed painfully long.When the bell eventually rang,I walked my bike home very slowly,dreading the upcoming storm.As I got close to my home, I saw my dad waiting for me at the door! 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。 To my astonishment,my dad was not angry at all. That day,I learned one of the most important lessons in my life. 【高二期末考试·英语第8页（共8页）】 26-L.-699B
