When he speaks of iron, you can hear the respect in the voice of this soft-spoken artist. He uses every tool available — from basic sketchbooks to CT scanning and 3-D printing — to reveal the metal’s rare character. Joyce was born in Oklahoma, where his parents taught him that every part contains a clue to the whole, whether that’s a color, shape, or handicraft of civilization. Joyce found his medium when family affairs took him to El Rito, New Mexico. A third grade teacher there changed the course of his life when she allowed him into the studio one day after school, gave him a piece of clay, and let his hands do the talking. At 13, Joyce wandered into the workshops of Peter Wells, who was restoring historic printing equipment for the Museum of New Mexico. Wells decided to give the earnest kid a try. After watching Joyce work for several days, Wells, one day, handed Joyce the shop keys and left. In the end, Joyce landed a summer job there. From then on, Joyce decided to work full time and struck a deal with the Museum of New Mexico to let him spend hours in their basement with objects that he refers to as “teachers”. He learned techniques by tracking the marks made by smiths and built a collection of potential design solutions. In his early 20s, Joyce moved to Santa Fe and opened his own shop. Graduating to more demanding custom architectural metal work, he continued to seek out teachers. For the past decade, Joyce has taken his work to an industrial scale through a rare relationship with a large factory outside of Chicago. As for what’s to come, whether it’s new collaborations with industries or different tools in his hands, Joyce will continue to track, with keen precision, the character of iron. 24. What can we infer about Tom Joyce’s artistic approach? A. A rejection of modern machines. B. A complete reliance on computers. C. A combination of tradition and technology. D. A focus on chemical changes. 25. What is the second paragraph mainly about? A. The early inspirations for his artistic journey. B. The influence of his parents’ life philosophy. C. The process of finding his working medium. D. The influence of his teacher’s trust. 26. What drove Joyce’s growth from a teenager to a shop owner? A. His continuous pursuit of the craft. B. His desire for great wealth. C. Financial support from museums. D. Growing demand for metal works. 27. What can we learn from Tom Joyce’s story? A. Well begun is half done. B. Experience is the best teacher. C. Opportunity knocks only once. D. Strike while the iron is hot. C EVs (Electric Vehicles) are quieter, smoother and more refined than petrol cars and, provided they’re showing a range of plenty of miles available, far more relaxing for the person behind the wheel. But it can be a different story for anyone riding shotgun or in the back, as evidenced by multiple social media posts from passengers who have found that they feel more carsick riding in EVs than in traditional petrol cars. “In EVs, for both a driver and a passenger, their brains lack the ability to estimate the motion because they rely on previous experience in other types of cars,” said William Emond, who researches carsickness. Emond explains, if a person has spent most of their life driving a petrol-engine car, their brain anticipates the car speeding up after hearing the engine noise, a warning that they are about to experience a change in speed. In a battery-powered car, there is no clue for them to predict the change. One 2024 study concluded that there were strong links between motion sickness severity and the seat vibrations (颤动) of EVs, while a 2020 study found that no engine sound in an EV contributed to carsickness. Another study said EVs’ special braking resulted in gradual slowdown over a relatively longer period, making people sick. Motion sickness is thought to be caused by a mismatch between various sensory signals the brain receives about the body’s movement at the same time. Specifically, it happens when the inner ear, which helps control balance, the eyes, and the body send conflicting information to the brain. Researchers are exploring ways to tackle the EV-related sickness. Some experts have claimed that motion sickness in EVs could be treated by using visual signals (such as interactive screens), or vibrational signals to allow a passenger’s brain to anticipate motion changes, easing the carsick feeling in the back of an electric car. 28. What does the phrase “riding shotgun” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Sitting in the front passenger seat. B. Experiencing severe carsickness. C. Traveling with heavy luggage. D. Driving the vehicle. 29. Why do people in EVs feel more sick according to Emond? A. EVs start at higher speed. B. They fail to expect motion. C. They dislike the noises in EVs. D. EVs usually move too smoothly. 30. What do the studies link EV sickness with? A. EVs’ sudden slowdown. B. EVs’ seat material. C. EVs’ major drawbacks. D. EVs’ specific features. 31. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. EV Sickness: Worse than Ever B. Green EVs, Hidden Problems C. Quiet EVs, Upset Stomachs D. Motion Sickness: Unavoidable in EVs D Statistically speaking, you’ve probably already pressed a “like” button several times today. Perhaps you recently posted on social media platforms and are eagerly checking as the like count rises on your phone. But what makes the “like” button so appealing to us? According to Nicholas Christakis, a sociologist and physician at Yale University, it is because the “like” button is built, in a very deep and distant way, on the back of evolutionary (进化的) biology. While many animals learn through trial and error, humans evolved “social learning”. Our ancestors survived by avoiding others’ mistakes and copying their successful moves. Today, a high “like” count is simply a modern signal of these successes, telling our brains what is worth imitating. This survival mechanism is closely tied to “homophily” (同质偏好), our deep-seated preference for people similar to ourselves. While this “birds of a feather” tendency can lead to prejudice, it evolved to originally strengthen our advantage of social learning. There are other consequences of an evolved social learning ability. They include our habits of expressing gratitude and acknowledgment — essentially saying “thank you for letting me learn from you”. Because we are happy to get clues about threats and to gain opportunities, we receive knowledge in a fashion that will encourage more of it to come our way. In turn, we as givers respond to that positive confirmation. Today, pressing the “like” button is exactly this kind of quick, positive confirmation. It’s what keeps us sharing what we discover. All this explains why we have grown to welcome liking and being liked. It’s just not possible for something to become so popular without being connected with something fundamental in our biology. 32. How does the author introduce the topic of the text? A. By making a comparison. B. By asking critical questions. C. By explaining an assumption. D. By presenting a social phenomenon. 33. What does the author say about “homophily”? A. It has both harm and benefits. B. It’s the key to social learning. C. It’s far from well-documented. D. It helps to express preferences. 34. Why do humans tend to say thanks? A. To gain more opportunities. B. To deepen social interaction. C. To respond to positive feedback. D. To boost more sharing. 35. What is the author’s primary purpose in writing this text? A. To analyze how “likes” drive online engagement. B. To explain why humans evolved to desire “likes”. C. To emphasize the advantage of human social learning. D. To illustrate the behavioral impact of “homophily”. 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。 Imagine dusting off your old bicycle, and feeling the familiar cool metal and rubber handlebars. You haven’t ridden it in years, and the idea of getting back on it fills you with both expectation and anxiety. 36. ______ Like riding a bike, it’s full of moments of hesitation, efforts, and ultimately, victories. The bike, symbolic of our dreams, waits for us to begin again. Too often, we aim too high, fail to succeed, and then grow used to it. Then we set goals again. 37. ______ So I decided to start small. First I just put air in the tires one day, nothing more. The next day I cleaned the bike. Then I placed it where I’d see it daily. Soon, the only thing left was finding 10 minutes to ride. Taking just one small step daily helps boost motivation. 38. ______ Last year, I rode 1, 000 miles, and this year, I’m already at 1, 300 miles and still going strong! To raise funds for crucial cancer research, I’ve completed two bike marathons, pushing my limits for a great cause. Getting back on a bike wasn’t easy. At first, my body felt rigid and shaky, and each attempt felt off. But that’s how every new start felt: painstakingly slow and uncomfortable. 39. ______ My body adjusted, rhythm returned, and confidence grew. This is neuroplasticity in action. Each successful ride lifted my self-confidence, empowering me to tackle other challenges. The key, on a bike or in life, is where we focus. Take one of my regular routes, Summit Avenue on the Corey Hill. That peak feels impossibly hard and far away. But here’s the secret to defeating it-forget the distant peak. 40. ______ That’s how we move forward. A. I knew I had to break the cycle. B. Slowly, this strategy worked wonders. C. Life mirrors this experience in many ways. D. Success followed when I least anticipated it. E. Yet as I kept at it, something magical happened. F. Focus just on the front wheel and the next few inches. G. Sometimes all we need is just a little push to get going. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Rain began to pour down as my husband Mark and I left a lovely Philadelphia restaurant.

To everyone’s surprise, she introduced some AI tools to help brainstorm the essays. A sudden hush fell over the classroom, with expressions shifting between excitement and unease. Emily, a hardworking senior, felt a knot form in her stomach. She had always taken pride in her own writing process, staying up late to plan and revise every sentence. “This feels like cheating,” she whispered to her friend. “What if the machine writes better than I do?” Sensing their hesitation, Ms. Rodgers offered a reassuring smile. “AI is not your ghostwriter,” she said calmly. “It’s your brainstorming partner. You are still the one in the driver’s seat.” Reluctantly, Emily fed a few prompts about her grandmother into the computer. Within seconds, the screen populated with perfectly structured essay. The AI described her grandmother as “a beacon of light” and “a symbol of unconditional love.” It was impressive — almost too perfect. Emily’s heart sank as self-doubt crept in. However, the mood shifted dramatically during the afternoon sharing session. When Ms. Rodgers asked volunteers to read their AI-generated drafts aloud, three students recited nearly identical, cookie-cutter sentences. The class erupted in laughter. “It literally sounds like the same robot wrote all of these!” someone joked. The laughter snapped Emily out of her daze, and she looked back at her screen. The words were polished, yet profoundly empty. Between those perfect lines, the AI didn’t know anything about the times her grandmother taught her to cook. It couldn’t capture the familiar movements of her hands or the comforting smells that always filled their kitchen. The initial awe faded, replaced by a sudden clarity. 注意：（1）续写词数应为150左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 That night, pushing the laptop aside, Emily made a firm choice. The next day in class, Emily handed in her handwritten, heartfelt essay. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $这是2026上学期衡南县高二期末考试英语科听力部分，该部分分为第一第二两节。注意，回答听力部分时，请先将答案标在试卷上。听力部分结束前，你将有两分钟的时间将你的答案转涂到客观题答题卡上。现在是听力试音时间。Hello, international friends club. can I help you?

Regarding the inspiring slogan, I’d like to explain its true meaning as well as our daily practices. Essentially, it conveys that a sound ecological environment is as precious as wealth, highlighting the harmony between nature and development. Inspired by this concept, we are taking active steps. As the picture implies, sorting garbage, especially recycling plastic bottles, has become our daily habit. Additionally, choosing low-carbon commuting like cycling is a pre-vailing trend among us to protect our green planet. Hope this helps! Yours sincerely, LiHua 第二节 读后续写 【参考范文】（字数：150词左右） Paragraph 1: That night, pushing the laptop aside, Emily made a firm choice. She grabbed her favorite pen and a blank notebook, deciding to rely on her own memories. Closing her eyes, she didn’t search for grand metaphors. Instead, she visualized her grandmother’s wrinkled but quick hands making noodles on the wooden counter. The rich, delicious smell of hot chicken soup and chopped green onions seemed to magically fill her own room. Guided by these vivid senses, Emily let her true emotions flow onto the paper. The sentences weren’t flaw-lessly structured, and the page was soon covered with ink marks, but every single line pulsed with genuine love. Finishing the last word at midnight, she smiled warmly at her draft. The next day in class, Emily handed in her handwritten, heartfelt essay. Ms. Rodgers scanned the ink-stained pages, her eyes softening with deep appreciation. “This,” the teach-er announced gently, “is what no machine can ever copy. It has a soul.” When Emily was in-vited to read aloud, there was no laughter. Instead, a touched silence fell over the room as she shared the simple story of homemade noodles and quiet kitchen talks. Looking at her classmates’ attentive faces, Emily felt a surge of pride, finally understanding that while AI might build a perfect structure of a text, only the human heart can breathe life into it. 听力材料 Text 1 M: I tried to make a joke during the international meeting, but nobody laughed. It was so awk-ward. W: Well, humor doesn’t always translate well across different cultures. Text 2 M: I’d like to sign up for the beginner’s Chinese class. W: Great choice! Learning Chinese is becoming increasingly popular. Please fill out this form at the front desk. Text 3 W: Have you finished reading the book about Sima Qian? M: Not yet. I know his experiences are fascinating, but the book is a bit tough for me to follow. Text 4 M: The guidebook says the museum tickets are 20 dollars each. W: But with our student ID, we can get a 50% discount. Let’s get two tickets. Text 5 W: I’m feeling a bit under the weather. I have a sore throat and a dry cough that kept me up all night. M: I’m sorry to hear that. It sounds like you’ve caught a common cold. Text 6 W: John, I’m in a bit of a mess. My aunt sent me an ugly pink dress for my birthday. I was actually hoping for a new backpack, but when she called, I told her I absolutely loved the dress. M: A classic white lie. You just wanted to spare her feelings, right? W: Exactly. I was rushing out the door and did want to end the phone call quickly, but honestly, I just couldn’t bear to disappoint her. The problem is, she expects me to wear it to the family dinner next week! Should I just throw it away and pretend I lost it? M: You can’t live a lie forever. Just sit down with her and tell the truth gently — explain it’s just not your style. Text 7 M: Hey Lily, still reading that book about alien contact? W: Yes, it’s for my science presentation tomorrow. It makes me wonder if we should really reach out to aliens. M: I don’t think we should. Some people think aliens might not even exist, or they are too far away to reach. But what if they do receive our signals and aren’t friendly? Inviting them here could bring a total disaster to humanity. W: I understand your fear. But think about the bright side. Exploring space isn’t just about finding aliens. The technology we develop for space can be used to solve resource problems on Earth. Text 8 M: Hello. I’d like to mail this package, please. W: Of course. Where is it headed? M: It’s going to my niece in London. W: Okay. Can you please place it on the scale for me? Hmm, it’s quite heavy. We have Ex-press, Priority, and Standard shipping. Which one would you prefer? M: Her birthday isn’t for another month. Let’s just go with the Standard shipping, please. It’s the cheapest, right? W: Yes, it is. Would you like to add insurance for the items? It’s an extra 5 dollars. M: Yes, that sounds like a good idea. Let’s add it. W: All right. Standard shipping plus insurance comes to 48 dollars and 50 cents. Text 9 W: Good morning, Mark. You look very tired today. M: I am. I took my phone to bed last night. One video became 10 videos. Suddenly it was 1: 00 a. m. W: It is a bad habit. Taking your phone to bed often leads to staying up late. M: I know. Besides, looking at too many perfect photos online makes me feel anxious. Every-one else’s life looks so easy and rich. My own life feels small. W: We know those photos are not real life. But our minds forget that. Why not make a change? M: How can I begin? W: You can unfollow those accounts showing perfect expensive lives. Look at things of nature and books instead. M: That sounds like a great idea. Text 10 W: Welcome to our food and travel program.
