While many have contributed, the work of these four individuals fundamentally changed their fields. and continues to impact oar lives today. Otto Hahn Otto Hahn was a pioneer in the field of nuclear chemistry. His most famous achievement came in 1939 with the discovery of nuclear fission—a process that releases immense energy by splitting atomic nuclei(原子核). This breakthrough not only earned him the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1944 but also paved the way for both nuclear energy and atomic science. Earlier, in1921, he also discovered nuclear isomerism, solidifying his role as a key figure in radiochemistry and modern physics. Louis Pasteur Louis Pasteur's work has saved many lives. He discovered that tiny living things called germs(病菌) can cause sickness and make food go bad. From this, he created a way to heat milk so it is safe to drink—— now called pasteurization. He is even better known for making vaccines(疫苗)against serious diseases like rabies and anthrax. His important findings helped start modern germ science and ways to prevent disease, changing how people fight infections. Nikola Tesla Nikola Tesla,a visionary inventor, was instrumental in capturing the power of electricity. He championed alternating current(AC), which proved far superior to direct current for carrying electricity over long distances. This AC system became the foundation of our modern electrical network. Tesla also held groundbreaking patents in radio transmission, and electromagnetism(电磁), dreaming up technologies that would only be realized long after his time. James Clerk Maxwell James Clerk Maxwell transformed our understanding of electricity, magnetism, and light.Through a set of elegant equations—— now known as Maxwell's equations——— he integrated the theories of electricity and magnetism into a single framework: electromagnetism. His work predicted the existence of radio waves and laid the essential groundwork for both relativity and quantum physics. 21. What Nobel Prize did Otto Hahn win in 1944? A. Medicine. B. Physics. C. Chemistry. D. Literature. 22. What is pasteurization used for? A. Making flu vaccines. B. Increasing milk production. C. Killing germs on chicken. D. Keeping milk safe to drink. 23. What do Tesla and Maxwell have in common? A. They studied electromagnetism. B. They predicted radio waves. C. They explored atomic nuclei. D. They invented alternating current. B I remember doing the household chores to help my mother when I was nine. I hated changing the vacuum cleaner(真空吸尘器) bag and picking up things the machine did not clean away.Twenty years later, in 1978, with this lifelong dislike of the way the machine worked,I decided to make a bagless one. 【高二英语试卷·第3页(共 8页)】 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 Easier said than done, of course. I didn't realize that I would spend the next five years perfecting my design,a process that resulted in 5.127 different prototypes(样机). By the time 1made my 15th prototype, my third child was born. By 2,627, my wife and I were really counting our pennies(便士). By 3,727, my wife was giving art lessons for some extra cash, and we were getting further and. further into debt. These were tough times, but each failure brought me closer to solving the problem. In the early 1980s,I started trying to get licensing agreements for my technology. The reality was very different, however, The major vacuum makers had built a business model based on the profits from bags and filters(滤网). No one would license my idea, not because it was a bad one,but because it was bad. for business. But soon after, the companies that I had talked with started making machines like mine. I had to fight legal battles on both sides of the Atlantic to protect the patents on my vacuum cleaner. I was still in financial difficulties until 1993, when my bank manager. personally persuaded Lloyds Bank to lend me $1 million. Then I was able to go into production. Within two years, the Dyson vacuum cleaner became a best-seller in Britain. Today,I still accept risk and the potential for failure as part of the process. Nothing beats the excitement of invention. 24. What drove the author to make a bagless vacuum cleaner? A. His willingness to help mom. B. His curiosity about machines. C. His trouble in doing family chores. D. His discontent with existing cleaners. 25. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us? A. The help from the author's wife. B. The financial problems of the family. C. The tough process of the new invention. D The procedures of making a bagless cleaner. 26. Why did the companies refuse to license the author's technology? A. They thought they might suffer loss. B. They considered it not good enough. C They faced legal problems themselves. D They had begun making such machines. 27. What lesson may the author learn from the experience? A. Think twice before acting. B. Failure is the mother of success. C. Actions speak louder than words. D. A good beginning makes a good ending. The idea that you can use humor, laughter, and play to make you healthier probably seems too simple to be true. However, it is really true and simple. The sense of humor, laughter and play plays an important part in keeping you healthy. Treat the blues with a sense of humor, which is closely tied to laughter. Laughter is infectious. Have you ever heard a big laugh of a young child and been able to keep yourself from smiling? When laughter is shared between people, it makes them closer to each other and increases their happiness. Smiling is the beginning of laughter and a smile is also just as infectious as laughter is. You can experience something by smiling at everyone around you, and you will feel happier just by sharing a smile, even with a stranger. Play is an important part of making sure that we stay healthy. We are often encouraged to make sure our children play, and are told of the benefits of being out playing. However, what we often forget is that it is just as important for old people to make play be part of their life as it's for children. Physical play is important for the old and it certainly helps prevent illness. While the 【高二英语试卷·第4页(共8页)】 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 studies are still in the early stages, the studies that have been done have shown that physical play certainly plays a part in preventing cognitive(认知的) falling. Anyway, adding humor, laughter, and play to our life will influence us mentally, physically and socially and bring us many advantages. So we should make full use of humor, laughter and play to make our life more active, more interesting and happier. 28. What does the underlined word“infectious” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Playing an important role. B. Keeping people in high spirits. C. Quickly influencing other people. D. Preventing illness from spreading. 29. What can laughter increase according to the author? A. Cognitive ability. B. Good relationships. C. A sense of humor. D. Happiness and trust. 30. What does the author think the old should do? A. They should have a good rest. B. They should play like children. C. They should prevent cognitive falling. D. They should take part in physical play. 31. Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A. Humor, Laughter and Play for Health B. Always Keep Our Body Healthy C Have an Active and Happy Life D. Let Our Body and Mind Relax D Listening to music while driving is a common habit for many people. It helps us stay awake,improves our mood, and makes long trips more enjoyable. Over 80% of drivers play music on most journeys, especially younger drivers who find it hard to concentrate without it. Researchers have studied the effects of music on driving for many years in virtual driving environments. They measure things like speed, reaction time, and crash incidents under different music conditions. The results show that music can both help and harm driving performance. Overall, listening to music tends to lead to more simulated(模拟的) crashes, poorer speed control, and less stable following distances compared to driving in silence. However, music can temporarily help tired drivers stay alert on long, dull drives, though this effect fades after 15—25 minutes. Loud or fast-paced music is often thought to be risky, but research shows the picture is more complex. High volume tends. to slightly increase speed, while low volume makes people drive more slowly. Fast music does not always make driving worse, but very energetic or aggressive songs can lead to riskier behaviour, especially for young or inexperienced drivers. Music that drivers choose themselves tends to be less distracting(分心的) than music they do not like, as it helps them stay calm and focused. Inexperienced drivers are more easily affected by music. Studies show that when they listen to upbeat or fast music, they are more likely to speed, miss road signs, and react slowly to dangers. In contrast, calm or stow music can help them stay more aware and respond better to dangers on the road. For safer driving, it is best to listen to recognizable songs, at a moderate volume, and avoid very loud or aggressive tracks, New drivers, in particular, may want to lower the volume or even turn off the music in difficult driving conditions. 32. How do most researchers study the effects of music on driving? A. By conducting experiments in driving simulators. B. By analyzing real car crash data involving music. C. By surveying drivers' personal preferences for music. D. By measuring drivers' physical health after long trips. 【高二英语试卷·第5 页(共8页)】 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 33. Which type of driver should be most cautious about listening to music while driving? A. Drivers who are feeling excited. B. Drivers with little driving experience. C. Drivers who prefer popular music. D. Drivers travelling long distances. 34. What is the safest practice for drivers regarding music? A. Listening to loud music on boring road trips. B. Enjoying fast music to keep the brain active. C. Choosing familiar songs at a medium volume. D. Letting the passengers choose the music to enjoy. 38. What is the main purpose of the text? A. To discourage drivers from listening to music. B. To explore the driving habits between different drivers. ,C. To criticize young drivers for their bad listening habits. D. To explain how music affects driving and offer advice. 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。选项中有两项有多余选项。 Ways to keep a long-distance friendship A long-distance friendship is between two people who live quite far apart—— far enough that they don't see each other on a regular basis.

Coming from a quiet small town far away, he was extremely shy and quiet, always sitting silently at the back of the classroom. He never participated in any group activities, and even when the teacher asked him simple questions, he would lower his head shyly and reply in a low voice. · But during the art class, Jake, the most lively and playful boy in their class, secretly glanced at Leo's painting and couldn't hide the surprise on his face. One day, Ms. White, their art teacher,announced a city-wide art competition, calling on students to create paintings that could reveal their innermost dreams and true emotions. While other students chatted happily and actively shared their creative ideas, Leo set all alone in his seat, staring blankly at his blank canvas(画布),looking lost and discouraged. Ms. White walked over and knelt beside him, saying gently,“Everyone has a unique voice in art and yours is just waiting to be heard." Leo looked up at her. for the first time, his eyes full of doubt but also a faint spark of hope. She stayed with him patiently, asking about his beautiful hometown and his hidden hobbies, and little by little, Leo began to open. up his heart. With her encouragement, Leo finished his painting and submitted it to the teacher after class, never expecting anyone to notice. A month later, as soon as classes ended, Jake rushed over to Leo with a bright grin.“Come on, let's go to the notice board. The result of the art competition is. due out today!” he said excitedly.
