B A worldwide study published last month in the journal Nature Climate Change found global warming responsible for 37 percent of heat-related deaths between 1991 and 2018. As temperatures climb ever higher, that figure may well rise. The following is what happens if you’re one of the next people whom extreme heat kills, according to W. Lawrence Kenney, an expert at Penn State University. First, your brain sends a series of messages to your sweat glands (腺) telling them to increase sweat production. Then your heart starts beating faster to pump blood to the skin while blood flow is also directed away from some of your internal organs. That’s your body attempting to make your skin hotter than the air outside, in hopes of creating a convection (对流) phenomenon that moves heat away from you. Sometimes that alone is enough to create problems for a weak or aging heart. If heat attack occurs, your body might get so hot and shift so much oxygen-rich blood to the skin that it suffocates (窒息) those vital internal organs, which become oxygen-starved. Surviving the organ failure that follows might require an emergency transplant. If your body fails to cool you down, its internal temperature might start to climb to somewhere closer to 104 degrees and 105 degrees. “These are the situations where people die of classical heat attack,” Kenney said. At that temperature, the tissue s in the brain become affected. You may feel it start as a dull headache. Before long, you might not know where you are or what time it is. You might collapse. Left untreated, what follows is a series of organ failure that leads to all but certain death. We are learning more about how to avoid overheating. The most likely guarantee against dying of extreme heat is preventing the rise of global temperatures. However, achieving that goal requires rapidly and dramatically reducing fossil fuel use and finding ways to remove more carbon from the atmosphere than we release. Efforts so far have remained awfully insufficient. Global oil demand, the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries predicted last month, will jump greatly. 24.What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A.The function of sweat glands. B.The body’s heat-loss principle. C.The working principle of skin. D.The cause of an aging heart. 25.What directly claims people’s lives? A.Heat waves. B.Lack of oxygen. C.Dull headache. D.Organ failure. 26.How does the author feel about human’s current efforts to prevent global warming? A.Doubtful. B.Positive. C.Disappointed. D.Satisfied. 27.What is a suitable title for the text? A.How Heat Waves Destroy the Human Body B.Global Warming Leads to More Problems C.How Extreme Weather Affects Our Life D.Global Warming Attracts Public Attention C Inspired by butterfly wings, a team of German researchers have developed a new kind of robotic wings that can work using only magnetic fields (磁场). The new wings created by the Technical University of Darmstadt researchers need no batteries or electronics. The researchers drew inspiration from the remarkable efficiency and endurance (持久力) of monarch butterflies, known to have incredibly long migrations between Canada and Mexico. Every autumn, millions of Monarch butterflies start a 3,000-mile journey from their North American breeding grounds to the warmer climate of southwestern Mexico for the winter. These new robotic wings achieve energy-efficient flight by combining movement with passive bending, which was rarely copied outside the natural world. The team, led by Professor Oliver Gutfleisch and Dr. Denys Makarov, used a combination of flexible plastic fixed with tiny magnetic particles (颗粒) to build the wings. The team found that the magnetic particles, when exposed to external magnetic fields, caused the wings to bend in a manner similar to that of butterflies. Achieving the desired design proved challenging; however, after testing fewer than 12 different designs, the team could develop wings strikingly similar to those that evolved in butterflies. Looking ahead, these new wings could have a wide range of applications. One could be environmental research in which winged robots monitor pollinator populations or measure air quality. They could also be helpful in disasters, with their small, energy-efficient design enabling robots to navigate dangerous areas for search and rescue operations. The team also pointed out that the new design could also be readily adapted for medical sciences. The principle of using magnetic particles in this way could also open doors for developing new kinds of artificial muscles or other innovative materials that can change shape on demand. While the robotic wings currently rely on external magnetic fields to change shape, the team is optimistic about integrating man-made magnetic field generators into future upgrades of the technology. “We plan to explore what changes to magnetic fields can enable more complex movements and control,” explained Muhammad Bilal Khan, another lead author. 28.What’s the driving power of the robotic wings? A.The air pressure. B.The magnetic field. C.The rechargeable battery. D.The electronic motor. 29.What does paragraph 5 mainly talk about? A.The potential of the robotic wings. B.Challenges facing the research team. C.The working principle of the robots. D.Uncertainties in developing robotic wings. 30.What does the last paragraph imply about the robotic wings? A.They should still depend on outside magnetic fields. B.Their use is strictly limited to environmental monitoring. C.They are expected to operate in controlled magnetic fields. D.Their new versions will function as well as human muscles. 31.Which is a suitable title for the text? A.The Monarch Butterfly’s 3,000-Mile Journey B.Robotics Taking Wings Thanks to Butterflies C.Butterflies Rely on Magnetic Fields for Flight D.Butterfly Wings Hold Clues to Natural Adaptation D The intersection of art and technology has always fascinated humanity. Nowhere is this more evident than in the world of poetry, where artificial intelligence (AI) is starting to make significant steps. AI poets are computer programs designed to generate poems, modeled after the style, rhythm, and even some emotional aspects of human works. AI has the ability to analyze vast databases of existing poems, identifying patterns in language, rhyme structures. Using machine-learning patterns, some AI poets can generate new lines of poetry. However, a fundamental question remains: can AI-generated poetry truly replace the creative wisdom of human-made poetry? Human poets draw on a lifetime of experiences, emotions, and cultural contexts to create their works. They use language not just as a means of communication but as a way to express the indescribable. In contrast, AI operates based on data and pattern. While it can produce technically perfect poems, it lacks the lived experiences and subjective feelings that give human poetry its quality of being true. Poetry critics often point out that the best poems are those that resonate (共鸣) with readers, challenging their perspectives and bringing strong feelings. AI-generated poems, despite their technical complexity, often fail to achieve this emotional reflection. For instance, a human poem about love may capture the pain and joy of romantic relationships while an AI-generated poem on the same topic may seem lacking individual personality and imagination. Supporters of AI poets claim that it can popularize the art form, making poetry creation accessible to anyone with a computer. AI could inspire a new generation of poets. Additionally, AI can introduce novel combinations of words and ideas, expanding the boundaries of what is considered poetry. As the debate continues, the AI in poetry forces us to re-evaluate our understanding of creativity, art, and the human experience and challenges us to consider what makes a poem truly great. 32.What is the primary function of AI poets according to the passage? A.To boost human poets’ creativity. B.To teach people how to write poetry. C.To analyze problems of existing poems. D.To create poems based on human poetry. 33.What is a major limitation of AI-generated poetry compared to human poetry? A.It cannot identify patterns in language. B.It cannot reach the real emotional depth. C.It cannot produce technically perfect poems. D.It cannot generate poems with correct rhymes. 34.What is the potential benefit of AI poets? A.It can analyze traditional poetry. B.It can ensure the quality of poetry. C.It can help more people create poetry. D.It can quickly evaluate human poetry. 35.What is the author’s overall attitude toward AI poets? A.Fairly objective. B.Entirely positive. C.Quite negative. D.Highly critical. 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入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Every time life knocks you down, just remember these actions to take, and you can heal and overcome the crisis quickly, returning to your life stronger and happier.

Now that he’s 80, his       41       edge has only gotten sharper. “Many have said, ‘You’re crazy,’” said Smith, who visits doctors every few months to check on his       42      . “But they’ve never told me not to       43      .” Smith not only runs ultramarathons — races longer than 26.2 miles that often take days to       44       — he also sets records. Smith said, “I’ve never really thought of my       45       as an obstacle,” I kind of have the       46       of “If somebody else can do it, you know, why can’t I?” There are many       47       behind his running. One of Smith’s races came in November 2016, when he       48       the challenge of a 100-mile race in southwest China, near the very region where his father, Mickey, fought Japanese soldiers while       49       in the U.S. Army Air Corps (陆军航空队) during World War Ⅱ. Once, after Smith finished an ultramarathon in California, a stranger       50       him a note that said: “Watching you struggle up that hill gave me the       51       to fight my own illness. Thank you for showing me how to persevere.” For Smith, it was proof that running could       52       life beyond the finish line. After he finished Badwater Ultramarathon, one of the world’s hardest footraces, Smith told his trainer Michael Johnson that it would be his       53       ultramarathon.

It was Cousin Joey, her husband, Finn, and their little daughter, Nova. I hadn’t seen them in a while. My father’s side of the family would have family gatherings every Saturday evening in my Granny’s place, but I hadn’t been attending them recently since it clashed with my part-time job as a barista (咖啡师). Granny also lived quite far away, so usually just my parents and my brother would go. This week, however, I had the day off. So here I was, meeting relatives I hadn’t seen for long. We were a big family. I had a bunch of cousins at least ten years older than me. A few of them, including Cousin Joey, had children. Little Nova was about four to five, the first great-grandchild and the youngest in the family. The next was me, with a 15-year gap. Having my brother was a blessing. When we were little, all cousins were young adults. Being the only two kids was overwhelming. My outgoing brother shared adults’ attention for me. But for Nova, all eyes were fixed on her. “Nova, say hello to Great Granny,” Joey pulled her arm. Nova frowned, looked down and stepped back. “Don’t be rude,” Joey insisted. Nova shook her head, hiding behind Joey’s legs. Finn grabbed her arm and pulled her forward. Adults kept urging her to be polite, some harsh and some gentle. Watching this, my palms grew sweaty. Nova looked close to tears, her frown so deep as if it could pinch a fly to death. After a long struggle, Nova whispered a greeting too quiet to hear. Then she was set free to a bedroom. The adults stayed in the living room. “Nova is just like Kristi, isn’t she?” my mom said. “You two are so shy and stubborn,” Joey added, staring at me. I forced an awkward smile. Mom began talking about how difficult I was as a kid. Seeing Nova brought back my unwanted bitter memories. I truly understood how she felt deep inside. 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。 Seeing that everyone was buried in their warm chat, I quietly walked towards the bedroom. ______________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________ Just at that moment, Joey came in, about to blame Nova for hiding again. ______________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________ 2025-2026学年下学期期中考试 高二 英语答案 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 1.B 【原文】W: Hi, Stephen, guess who I saw at the city library?

M: No. I will try Russian this time. 5.A 【原文】W: I tried an AI-powered store yesterday. You scan the phone at the gate, grab what you need, and just walk out - no queues.

His curiosity and creativity really draw me. M: Yes. He didn’t just stick to one field — he was always exploring new ideas. W: I am really amazed at how he outlined designs for machines and inventions that were way ahead of his time. 8.C 9.A 10.B 【原文】W: You’re so lucky, Todd. You travel all over the world. I never leave Chicago! M: Yeah — but it’s hard work. I just practice, practice, practice and play tennis all the time. I don’t get time to see much. W: What about last year? Where did you go? Tell me about it. M: Well, in January I was in Melbourne for the Australian Open. It’s a beautiful city, sort of big. There’s a nice mixture of old and new buildings. January is their summer, so it was hot when I was there. W: And what’s Dubai like? When were you there? M: In February. We went from Australia to Dubai for the Dubai Tennis Open. Hot, very dry, very modern. Lots of really modern buildings, white buildings. An interesting place. I enjoyed it. W: And Paris! That’s where I want to go! What’s Paris like? M: Everything that you imagine! Very beautiful, wonderful old buildings but lots of interesting modern ones, too. And of course very, very romantic, especially in May. Maybe I can take you there sometime. 11.B 12.A 13.C 【原文】W: Hi, Gary, how was Paris? M: Great! It’s a very beautiful city! But my trip was quite an adventure, especially the end! W: Really? What happened? M: On Thursday, I checked the times of the airport bus, but I didn’t notice that they were different at weekends. And I was leaving on Sunday. W: Oh no! M: I wanted to take the midnight bus to the airport and my flight was at seven o’clock in the morning, so I arrived at the bus stop at 11:30 p.m.. W: But you were too late. M: Exactly! The last bus was gone! I didn’t have money for a taxi and the subway wasn’t running either. W: What did you do? M: I decided to spend the night in a cafe and I didn’t get any sleep. W: Oh, dear! So, what time did you get to the airport? M: I took the first bus the next morning and got there at 5:00. But you’ll never believe what happened! I was there for four hours! We finally took off at 9:00! W: Oh, no! You must be worn out. 14.C 15.C 16.A 【原文】M: Adele, you are from France, right? W: Yes, there are so many beautiful places of interest. Have you ever been there? M: I haven’t, but my sister has. I’ve been to Germany. The chocolate there is delicious. W: Exactly, but I still think my favorite European country is Greece. W: Mine, too. I went there a few years ago and fell in love with it. M: Same. It’s so rich in history and the beaches are amazing. W: That’s the southern Europe for you. Have you ever been to any northern countries? M: Not yet, but Mary and I would love to take a trip to Sweden for our honeymoon. W: You should, David. I saw the northern lights there last winter. They were fantastic. M: Wow, I can’t wait to go there. Tell me more about it after work. 17.C 18.A 19.C 20.B 【原文】M: Karachi, Pakistan, is one of the hottest cities on the Earth. In June 2015, more than 1,000 people died there during a heat wave. “It was a terrible time,” Shahzad Qureshi said. “We needed to do something about it.” After the heat wave, Qureshi took action. He started Urban Forest. The group plants native trees in cities in Pakistan. Since 2015, Qureshi and his team have helped cool the air by planting 14 urban forests in Pakistan. Twelve are in Karachi. The trees also provide a habitat for a variety of animals and food for the community. And they create a shady spot where people can relax. In 2017, Qureshi helped plant an urban forest at Karachi Grammar School. First, he met with students there. He taught them about how trees help the environment. Then the students pitched in. They helped plant saplings in the schoolyard. “They were excited about the project,” Muneeza Shaikhli says. She’s a principal at Karachi Grammar School. “They themselves had been experiencing the high temperatures in the summer months.” The trees attract birds and colorful butterflies. Students go outside during science class to study the forest. “It’s like a library of native trees in front of the kids,” Qureshi says. “They can identify the native species and insects that are around. It’s a beautiful thing to see.” 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） 语篇解读：本文为应用文，介绍阿拉米达免费图书馆2026书签设计比赛参赛主题、提交地点、截止时间、分组奖项及未成年人参赛许可要求。 21.D【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段中“...design a one-of-a-kind bookmark

I’m glad to hear that our school English radio station will launch the new program “Heritage Weekly”. In my opinion, it’s a meaningful initiative, which can help us learn more about cultural heritage and arouse our awareness of protecting it. I have two small suggestions. First, we can invite teachers to introduce world heritage briefly each week. Second, adding a section where students share their own experiences of visiting heritage sites will make the program more attractive. I’m looking forward to the first broadcast. Best wishes! Yours sincerely, Li Hua 第二节 （满分25分） 67. 【参考范文】  Seeing that everyone was buried in their warm chat, I quietly walked towards the bedroom. I found Nova sitting on the floor, hugging her stuffed rabbit, eyes red with tears. I sat beside her and gave her a candy, the kind I used to hide in my pocket as a shy kid. “I used to hate these forced greetings too,” I whispered. She was slowly relaxed, letting me braid her hair with a colorful ribbon I found on the bed. Soon, she even began to tell me about her favorite cartoon character in a tiny voice. Just at that moment, Joey came in, about to blame Nova for hiding again. Before she could speak, I stood up and said softly, “She’s just shy, like I was at her age. She needs more time, not pressure.” Joey paused, then sighed and nodded in understanding. Later, the adults spoke to her gently, and by the end of the gathering, Nova even waved goodbye to everyone with a small, bright smile. That day, I realized how a little empathy could change everything for a shy child. 第1页 共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
