Nobody had written like him before.A short clean sentence is a fine thing.But if the writer has his story straight and his words true,he can go long and hard-no need for big words and adverbs and commas )He also knew what to leave out,as he explained,"If a writer of prose knows enough of what he is writing about,he may omit things that he knows and the reader,if the writer is writing truly enough,will have a feeling of those things as strongly as if the writer had stated them" Beyond his distinct style,his heroes attracted famous admirers.He defined courage as"grace under pressure"- partially,for the soldicr in A Farewell to Arms,physically,for the fisherman in The Old Man and the Sea,or sportingly, for the transformed hunter in The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber.In 1955 John F.Kennedy asked for Hemingway's permission to use this definition in Profiles in Courage,which won the Pulitzer prize for biography. Perhaps most importantly,Hemingway's life became a legend.He endured broken marriages,was wounded in the first world war,reported in the second,ran with the bulls in Spain and survived a plane crash in Africa.Yet,bencath toughness,he suffered from depression.That has provided more than enough material for biographics and 8 documentaries,including a six-hour series by Ken Burns in 2021.

D.They stand the test of time. 0 Through evolution.animals have developed numerous ways to protect themselves from predators ()Turtles hide in their shells,and skunks (use smelly liquid But these defenses don't work against cars.Environmental journalist Ben Goldfarb explains,"When facing a car,these defenses are useless-or even harmful.Stnying still is the worst choice.Roadkill is a serious threat to wildlife." Roads also act as barriers,preventing animals from moving frecly.The constant traffic on highways creates what scientists call a"moving fence"-a wall of vehicles that animals avoid crossing.While we often see dead animals like deer or squirrels on roads,we don't see the ones that never try to cross.This isolation can harm animal populations more than roadkill itself. Chemicals from roads also damage the environment.Every year,the U.S.uses 20 million tons of road salt to melt ice,which pollutes nearby soil and plants.Cars release metals like zinc and copper,and tires leave behind microplastics. These pollutants make roadsides dangerous for creatures like monarch butterflies,cven though these areas could otherwisc be good habitats. Roadsides sometimes attract animals with food like flowers or berries,but this becomes an "ecological trap". Animals are drawn to these resources,only to face the danger of traffic. Interestingly,when traffic decreases,animals quickly adapL Researchers in the Bay Area found that when cars disappeared for months,white-crowned sparrows-small songbirds-started singing more complex and varicd songs. Without traffic noise,they no longer needed to"shout"and could return to their natural behaviors.This shows how much roads affect wildlife-but also how adaptable animals can be. Despite these challenges,Goldfarb says,certain species have made remarkable adaptations.He notes that Chicago's urban foxes are said to look both ways before crossing the street."We think about roads as these forces that are universally or exclusively harmful to animals,and certainly they're incredibly destructive,"he says."But wildlife is also impressively adaptive and clever and animals are finding ways to make a living in our midst" 28.How does the author start the text in the first paragraph? A.By stating a reason. B.By providing statistics. C.By defining a concept. D.By giving examples. 29.What harmful impact do roads have on wildlife? A.Less food supply. B.Restricted movement C.Increased predators. D.Specics extinction. 30.What can we infer from Goldfarb's words in the last paragraph? A.Roads are not truly harmful to wildlife. B.Urban foxes seldom get hit by vehicles. 高二英语第4页(8项 C.Animals adapt cleverly to dangerous roads. D.Wildlife protection deserves highest attention. 31.What is the author's purpose in writing this passage? A.To advocate reducing traffic. B.To discuss pollution along road sides C.To analyze roads'effects on wildlife. D.To introduce methods of protecting wild animals D In April 2026.some of the world's most powerful technology companies made a striking announcement:they are now using artificial intelligence-Al-to belp build and improve AI itself.Companies like OpenAl,Anthropic,and Google DeepMind have quietly sct a new goal:to create Al systems that can do their own research and automate 动化)he process of scientific discovery. Anthropic,the company behind the popular Al assistant Claude,recently revealed that its Al now writes up to 90 percent of the company's own code-the instructions that tell computers what to do.Meanwhile,OpenAl,one of the world's leading AI labs,has announced plans to launch an "AI research inter )"within six months.This intem would be able to independently handle a small number of specific research problems-witbout any belp from a human. The idea of Al improving itself is not pew,but the speed at which it is now happening has surprised many experts. Jakub Pachocki,OpenAl's chief scientist,told MIT Technology Review that he believes we are approaching a point where Al models could work"indefinitely"-meaning continuously-on complex tasks,much like a human researcher. "We will have an cra where there arc entire research labs inside data centers,"be said. However,this exciting vision also raises serious concems.Experts wam that self-improving Al systems could become difficult to control.If an Al makes errors in one step of a long chain of tasks,those mistakes could build up-a problem known as"error accumulation".A more alarming worry is that such systems could be uscd to design dangerous toos,including biological weapons or cybernttacks(网路攻击). Despite the risks,many in the tech industry remain optimistic.They argue that self-improving Al could speed up progress in science and medicine,helping researcbers find cures for diseases faster than ever before.The question is not whether this technology will arrive-but whether humanity will be prepared when it does. 32.What is the purpose of the first paragraph? A.To wam of Al risks. B.To lead in the topic. C.To list Al companies D.To tell how Al works. 33.What can we learn about the"Al research intern"? A.It acts better than bumans. B.It has worked for six months. C.It can solve certain problems alone.D.It writes 90%of the company's code. 34.What is people's attitude to self-improving Al systems? A.Objective. B.Indifferent C.Completely optimistic. D.Completely pessimistic. 35.Which is a suitable title of the text? A.Risks of Al Self-Improving. B.Ways of AI Self-Improving. C.Al:A Statc-of-the-art Assistant D.Two Sides of AI Self-Improving. 第二节共5小愿：每小题2.5分，满分125分) 阅读下面短文，从短文5的选项中选出可以坑入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项， Start a Healthy Habit Many people want to live a bealthier life.They decide to exercise more or eat better food.They feel excited at first But after a few weeks,they oflen stop and retum to their old ways.36.The good news is that there are some simple ways to make habits stick. 高二英语第5页（项0 First,make your new habit casy to see.The more visible it is,the more likely you are to do it For example,if you want to drink more water,place a full water bottle right on your desk where you work or study.37.This small change can belp you drink more without much effort Second,try a method called"habit stacking"This simply means that you add a new habit to something you already do every day.38.For instance,you could do a gentle stretch right after you finish brushing your teeth.Because brushing is a fixed part of your day,the new habit becomes much easier to remember.
