B When I tumed 64,I signed up for a one-month German immersion (program in Berlin.On my first momning,the head teacher told us firmly:"Anyone who speaks a single word of your mother tongue will be charged a 3-euro fine."At that moment,I doubted whether I had made a wise decision. I fell in love with German when I was a teenager,but university courses bored me.Later, my grandchildren went to a bilingual German school,and my interest woke up again.Still, housework and work kept me too busy to study on my own.Last year,an elderly neighbour who spoke fluent German told me about his trips around Germany.I felt so jealous.The very next day,I resolved to realize my dream.Even in my sixties,I loved taking on new challenges. One month later,I flew to Berlin to study German for 30 days,where we were immersed in Germany eight hours a day.My classmates came from all over the globe:a Korean woman hoped to master German to appreciate European art;an Indian graduate wanted to find a job in Germany;Many,like me,sought a personal challenge. The first week was extremely tough.My brain hurt from non-stop language input.I routinely embarrassed myself.With only a limited German vocabulary,I couldn't tell any of my usual stories and jokes.After much practice,I finally developed an amusing story to tell to 高二英语试卷第4页共11页 whomever I sat with.Yes,the same story every day.At least I was never fined three euros! At school one day,I met a British woman I had chatted with in English at a cafe the previous day,I walked straight past her without a greeting-paying a thousand euros as punishment would do! Little by little,the immersive environment worked wonders.As soon as I stepped into the teaching building,my brain shifted to thinking in German.During the whole month,I made significant progress.On the final day,I even delivered a speech completely in German. Attending the program inspired me to continue my German learning.And I've booked the courses for another session this spring.I can't wait to get there and embarrass myself again! Age will never stop me from trying new things! 24.Why did the author doubt her decision on the first day of the program? A.The lessons were boring. B.The regulations were too strict. C.The schedule was overloaded. D.The cost was very high. 25.What pushed the author to learn German in Berlin? A.Her grandchildren's German classes. B.Her urge to be equally fluent in German like a neighbour. C.Her being attached to German. D.Her regained interest in German. 26.Which of the following can be used to describe the author? A.Cautious and curious. B.Self-disciplined and caring. C.Determined and challenge-seeking. D.Light-hearted and approachable. 27.What message does the text mainly want to show? A.Interest-motivated efforts will harvest well. B.Patience is the best policy. C.Rules are meant to be broken. D.Age won't be the barrier to learning. C Most of us have had the awkward experience of forgetting his or her name just seconds after being introduced to someone new.Yet,while names slip away from our memory so easily, faces often remain firmly in our minds.Why is this the case? A newly released video sheds light on this phenomenon.Titled "Why do you forget their names?",the video,created by Mitchell Moffit and Greg Brown,explains that the difficulty lies in how our brains handle random information.According to the video,the human brain is naturally born to recognize facial features.Specific brain cells are activated in response to seeing a face,making facial recalling a relatively effortless process. 高二英语试卷 第5页共11页 The University of Toronto,for example,found that when we search for faces in a crowd, the frontal cortex(前额叶皮层)sends signals to the posterior visual cortex(后视觉皮层)to sharpen our focus on what we are looking at.However,because names are random and carry no specific information in themselves,the brain struggles to remember them. The video also highlighted a phenomenon known as the "next-in-line effect."When meeting people for the first time,the brain starts focusing on its own routine-what I'll say and how I'll say it-so that we fail to truly listen to the other person.As a result,our brains are unable to take in new information,including the name just shared with us. An experiment conducted by Texas Christian University supports this idea.Researchers asked participants to take turns introducing themselves in a group.Later,they tested what each person remembered.The results showed that participants could recall information accurately about almost everyone in the group-except for the person who had spoken just before them. For that individual,their memory was nearly blank. Furthermore,our brains have both short-term and long-term memory.Short-term memory, often called "working memory,"has a limited capacity.If the brain does not pay close attention or repeat the information,it quickly fades away. 28.What does the new video explain about forgetting names? A.Names are treated as meaningless signals. B.Human brain reacts to names with low speed. C.Our brains process facial features more naturally. D.Names contain no particular detailed content. 29.What can we learn about the "next-in-line effect"in Paragraph 4? A.It weakens people's ability to identify a person. B.It brings about a temporary memory loss. C.It blocks people from absorbing fresh information. D.It reduces people's willingness to communicate actively. 30.What is the author's purpose of writing Paragraph 5? A.To further illustrate the idea of the previous paragraph. B.To bring up a new subject to discuss. C.To offer relevant background knowledge. D.To present a totally different research outcome. 31.According to the passage,which of the following can make something stick in your brain relatively longer? A.Sorting the data and information B.Making mental effort about the information 高二英语试卷第6页共11页 C.Exposing yourself to random information D.Storing more information D Modern agriculture's seeking to grow more food every year,but this goal is silently destroying the very foundation of our food system:soil resilience ()This vital concept refers to the capacity of soil to resist,adapt to and recover from disturbances-whether from routine farming or extreme environmental events such as droughts and floods.Consequently, soil is made steadily weaker,less capable of coping with bad conditions. The research,published in the joumal NPJ Sustainable Agriculture,identifies several severe threats.The foremost is widespread intensive practices like turning over soil,fertilizer application,and watering fields too much,as well as pressing from heavy machinery and deforestation.These methods maybe boost short-term production,but long-term productivity is declining.Other major risks include pollution from pesticides and microplastics.Scientists emphasize that soil supports around 95%of global food production and stores more carbon than all the world's forests combined and the decline of it is therefore a profound environmental crisis,breaking the fragile natural balance. According to lead author Dr.Alison Carswell,the resilience of the soils is central not only to the foundation of food security but also to biodiversity and climate stability.She cautions that many current practices risk pushing farming systems toward permanent"tipping points"of collapse-points of no return-threatening global trade and stability.These complex challenges demand our attention. The path forward requires farmers to balance immediate productivity with long-term soil health.Alteratives ranging from conservation farming to integrated pest management can help restore resilience.However,most solutions involve difficult choices,or difficult negotiation, demanding a strategic shift in land management.With the UN estimating one-third of global soil already damaged,and food demand rising,the call for change is increasingly urgent.This pressing issue affects everyone.As Dr.Carswell concludes,"Breaking the cycle of soil damage is possible,but it demands a fundamental rethinking-prioritizing resilience for the coming decades,not just the next season." 32.How does the author explain soil resilience? A.By giving examples B.By defining it directly C.By presenting the consequence D.By citing research findings 33.What is Dr.Carswell's words mainly about A.Assessing present farming methods B.Prioritizing short-term productivity 高二英语试卷 第7页共11页 C.Issuing a call for the urgent solution D.Pointing out the significance of the soil's self-healing 34.What do we know regarding the solution to the issue A.This issue has a good vision for future. B.Multiple sides,both the government and the individuals,must be involved. C.Soil conservation isn't a short-sighted undertaking D.The existing farming practices can't be production-targeted. 35.What can be the best title for the text? A.Modern Agriculture Is Degrading Soil. B.Technology Is Revolutionizing Farming. C.Awareness Needs Urgent Change. D.Food Security Requires Rethinking Now. 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。 How to Organize Your Digital Files With more work and personal files stored digitally,staying organized truly matters.A messy digital space can waste time and cause stress.Follow these steps to tidy up your files.

To be honest,I was not excited.I thought planting was boring and dirty.My teammates, Anna and Rob,made a watering plan,but I often forgot my tum.When they reminded me,I always said,"It is just a plant.Don't be so serious." One Friday afternoon,Anna had a piano lesson and Rob had a basketball game,so I promised to water the seedling before going home.However,my friends invited me to play table tennis,and I left without thinking about the garden. That night,a strong wind swept through the town.The next moming,I suddenly remembered the seedling and rushed to school.I was greeted by a mess.Some pots had fallen over,and our little seedling lay on the ground,its thin stem bent and its roots half exposed.My heart sank.I imagined Anna's disappointed face and Rob's angry questions. Worried and anxious,I picked up the seedling,not knowing what to do.Just then,Mr. Green,our science teacher,came into the garden with a box of tools containing a shovel () a rake (and so on.He looked at the plant in my hand,"Plants are stronger than they look,"he said gently,"but they need someone who refuses to give up on them."
