B When I was 17,I read a magazine article about a museum called the McNay,once the home of a watercolorist named Marian McNay.She had requested the community to turn it into a museum upon her death.On a sunny Saturday,Sally and I drove over to the museum. She asked,"Do you have the address?""No,but I'll recognize it,there was a picture in the magazine.” “oh,stop.There it is!”' The museum was free.We entered,excited.A group of people sitting in the hall stopped talking and stared at us. “May I help you?”a man asked..“No,”I said.“We're fine.”Tour guides got on my nerves.What if they talked a long time about a painting you weren't that interested in? Sally had gone upstairs..The people in the hall seemed very nosy(爱窥探的)，keeping their eyes on me with curiosity.What was their problem?I saw some nice sculptures in one room.Suddenly I sensed a man standing behind me."Where do you think you are?"he asked.I turned sharply."The MeNay Art Museum!"He smiled,shaking his head."Sorry, the McNay is on New Braunfels Street.""What's this place?"I asked,still confused. “Well,it's our home.”My heart jolted(展颤).I raced to the staircase and called out, “Sally!Come down immediately!”' 高二英语样题第4页（共10页） "There's some really good stuff up there."She stepped down,looking confused.I pushed her toward the front door,waving at the family,saying,"Sorry,please forgive us, you have a really nice place."Outside,when I told Sally what happened,she covered her mouth,laughing.She couldn't believe how long they let us look around without saying anything The real McNay was splendid,but we felt nervous the whole time we were there.Van Gogh,Picasso.This time,we stayed together,in case anything else unusual happened.

Can you believe that a single bush (in the Amazon may have more species of ants than the whole of Britain!About 480 varieties of trees may be found in just one hectare of rainforest. Rainforests are the lungs of the planet-storing vast quantities of carbon dioxide and producing a significant amount of the world's oxygen.Rainforests have their own perfect system for ensuring their own survival;the tall trees make a canopy (of branches and leaves which protect themselves,smaller plants,and the forest animals from heavy rain,intense dry heat from the sun and strong winds. Amazingly,the trees grow in such a way that their leaves and branches,although close together,never actually touch those of another tree.Scientists think this is the plants' way to prevent the spread of any tree diseases and make life more difficult for leaf-eating insects like caterpillars.To survive in the forest,animals must climb,jump or fly across the gaps.The ground floor of the forest is not all tangled leaves and bushes,like in films,but is actually fairly clear.It is where dead leaves turn into food for the trees and other forest life. They are not called rainforests for nothing!Rainforests can generate 75%of their own rain.At least 80 inches of rain a year is normal-and in some areas there may be as much as 430 inches of rain annually.This is real rain-your umbrella may protect you in a shower,but it won't keep you dry if there is a full rainstorm.In just two hours,streams can rise ten to twenty feet.The humidity (of large rainforests contributes to the formation of rainclouds that may travel to other countries in need of rain 28.Which of the following contributes most to the survival of rainforests? A.Forest animals. B.Heavy rains. C.Big trees. D.Small plants. 29.Why do the leaves and branches of different trees avoid touching each other? A.For self protection. B.For the detection of insects. C.For more sunlight. D.For more growing space. 30.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.Animals in the Amazon B.Weather in Rainforests C.The Law of the Jungle D.Life-Giving Rainforests 高二英语样题第6页（共10页） D A scientist working at her lab bench and a six-month-old baby playing with his food might seem to have little in common.After all,the scientist is engaged in serious research to uncover the very nature of the physical world,and the baby is,well,just playing...right? Perhaps,but some developmental psychologists have argued that this "play"is more like a scientific investigation than one might think. Take a closer look at the baby playing at the table.Each time the bowl of rice is pushed over the table edge,it falls to the ground-and,in the process,it brings out important evidence about how physical objects interact:bowls of rice do not float in mid- air,but require support to remain stable.It is likely that babies are not born knowing this basic fact of the universe;nor are they ever clearly taught it.Instead,babies may form an understanding of object support through repeated experiments and then build on this knowledge to learn even more about how objects interact.Though their ranges and tools differ,the baby's investigation and the scientist's experiment appear to share the same aim (to learn about the natural world),overall approach (gathering direct evidence from the world),and logic (are my observations what I expected?). Some psychologists suggest that young children learn about more than just the physical world in this way-that they investigate human psychology and the rules of language using similar means.For example,it may only be through repeated experiments, evidence gathering,and finally overturning a theory,that a baby will come to accept the idea that other people can have different views and desires from what he or she has,for example,unlike the child,Mommy actually doesn't like Dove chocolate. Viewing childhood development as a scientific investigation throws light on how children learn,but it also offers an inspiring look at science and scientists.Why do young children and scientists seem to be so much alike?Psychologists have suggested that science as an effort-the desire to explore,explain,and understand our world-is simply something that comes from our babyhood.Perhaps evolution (provided human babies with curiosity and a natural drive to explain their worlds,and adult scientists simply make use of the same drive that served them as children.The same cognitive systems that make young children feel good about figuring something out may have been adopted by adult scientists.As some psychologists put it,"It is not that children are little scientists but that scientists are big children." 高二英语样题第7页（共10页） 31.According to some developmental psychologists, A.a baby's play is somehow similar to a scientist's experiment B.the nature of babies'play has been thoroughly investigated C.scientific research into babies'games is possible D.a baby's play is nothing more than a game 32.What can we learn from Paragraph 2? A.Scientists and babies often interact with each other. B.Babies are born with the knowledge of object support. C.Babies seem to collect evidence just as scientists do. D.Scientists and babies seem to observe the world differently. 33.Children may learn the rules of language by A.observing their parents'behaviors B.repeating their own experiments C.investigating human psychology D.exploring the physical world 34.What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A.Children may have greater ability to figure out things than scientists. B.One's drive for scientific research may become stronger as he grows. C.Studying babies'play may lead to a better understanding of science. D.The world may be more clearly explained through children's play. 35-39学校自主命题 高二英语样题第8页（共10页） 第三部分：书面表达(32分) 第一节（第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分） As any younger brother will tell you,having a big brother involves a lot of walking in someone else's shadow,especially when you have a brother who is a typical example of "cool".For years I wanted to do everything my elder brother Tyson did,but no matter how hard I tried,I was always the neglected(被忽略的)one.My legs just weren't made to run like his.I could never play basketball well. I probably would have continued trying to keep up with him for the rest of my high school career,but when my family moved,everything changed.Tyson left for college,so I had to start at a new school all by myself.This new start gave me an opportunity to redefine myself and discover an entirely new version of "cool". I don't know what made me decide to try some new activities at the new school,but one day I chanced to show up for an after-school meeting of the Science Olympiad team.I 高二英语样题第9页（共10页） had always been fascinated with chemistry,biology,and math,but since those interests hadn't fit Tyson's definition of "cool",I had never pursued them.On this day,for some reason,I did. As we organized teams,prepared resources and practiced answering questions,I felt more connected than I ever had to any sports team.I didn't feel as though I needed to keep up with anybody else;I was finally with peers who understood me.It was so good to feel accepted for what I'm good at.For the first time in my life,I actually felt cool.Now I know who I am!I'm Tyson's little brother,but that's only part of my identity.I'm a cool guy in my own way,too.I'm relieved to know that "cool"has a much broader definition than what I used to think. 40.What opportunity did the new start give the author? 41.Why had the author never pursued the interests of chemistry,biology and math before? 42.Please decide which part is false in the following statement,then underline it and explain why. >The author used to be neglected because he didn't work hard. 43.How do you understand "cool"?Explain in your own words.(In about 40 words) 第二节(20分) 假设你是红星中学高二学生李华。你校交换生Jim打算在暑假期间游览一些中 国历史文化名城，向你征询建议。请你用英文给他写一封邮件，内容包括： 1推荐两个城市并说明理由； 2提出旅行注意事项。 注意：1.词数100左右； 2.开头和结尾已给出，不计人总词数。 Dear Jim, Yours, Li Hua (请务必将作文写在答题卡指定区域内) 高二英语样题第10页（共10页） 通州区2025一2026学年度第二学期期末高中二年级英语样题 参考答案及评分标准 2026年7月 第一部分：知识运用(30分) 第一节（每小题1.5分，共15分） 1.A 2.C 3.B 4.C 5.A 6.D 7.B 8.C 9.A 10.D 第二节（每小题1.5分，共15分） 11.whom 12.were used 13.to restore 14.consists 15.containing 16.with 17.has been 18.contributed 19.what 20.friendliness 第二部分：阅读理解(28分) 第一节（每小题2分，共28分） 21.D 22.A 23.B 24.C 25.D 26.B 27.B 28.C 29.A 30.D 31.A 32.C 33.B 34.C 第二节 35-39学校自主命题 35. 36. 37. 38. 39. 第三部分：书面表达(32分) 第一节（第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分） 40.The new start gave the author an opportunity to redefine himself and discover an entirely new version of“cool”. 41.Because those interests hadn't fit Tyson's definition of"cool". 42.The author used to be neglected because he didn't work hard.
