I turned a used plastic bottle into a beautiful flower pot. First, I cut the bottle in half and painted it with bright colours. Then I decorated it with small buttons and ribbons. Finally, I planted a little succulent inside. It looked lovely and unique! This activity taught me that waste can be turned into treasure with a little creativity. I felt proud to contribute to environmental protection in such a fun way. It also reminded me that small actions matter in building a greener world. Hope you’re doing well! Looking forward to hearing from you soon. Yours, Li Hua 第二节 Paragraph 1: Over the next two months, I carried Pride and Prejudice everywhere I went. During breaks, I sat in the corner with my dictionary, looking up every unfamiliar word. At home, I read passages aloud to practise pronunciation, even though my accent still sounded awkward to my own ears. Slowly, the sentences began to flow more smoothly, and the characters came alive again — Elizabeth’s wit, Mr. Darcy’s pride, the quiet tension between them. The story that had once transported me in Chinese now worked its magic in English. With each chapter, my confidence grew, not just in reading, but in believing that I could cross this language barrier. Paragraph 2: Ms. Thomas was the first to notice my progress, but the real surprise came when she asked me to read a paragraph aloud in class. I stood up, my heart racing. But as I started reading, the words felt natural on my tongue. I didn’t stumble, and for the first time, I didn’t feel ashamed of my voice. When I finished, the class was silent for a moment — then they applauded. My classmates smiled and some even asked for book recommendations. From that day on, I no longer hid in the shadows. Reading had not only improved my English, it gave me a bridge back to myself—the outgoing girl who loved stories and had so many of her own left to tell. 听力原文 Text 1 M:Have you been icing your shoulder as I told you? W:Every night. But it still hurts, and today I don't want to do any exercise that puts pressure on it. M:Okay, we'll work the legs today. Text 2 W:Hello, Computer Service. How may I help you? M:Something wrong with my laptop. W:Well, I'll connect you to a technician. If the problem can't be solved, we'll send someone to your door. Text 3 W:How are your guitar lessons going? M:Not so well. I don't think I have much musical talent, so I might give it up. I need to find something easier to pick up — then I'll stick with it. Text 4 M:You look a little worried. Are you searching for something? W:Yes, my phone is running out of power, and I need to charge it before my train arrives. M:There are charging stations near the waiting area. Text 5 W:When are you leaving for the U.S.? M:Next week. I've been busy preparing. I'm hiking in the Rocky Mountains, so good boots are essential. W:Luckily, the ones you've got are fine. M:Yeah. I have to find a new bag, though. I'm not taking a suitcase this time. Text 6 W:I've just read something about having hobbies. M:What does it say? W:Well, although exercise is good for us, there's evidence to suggest that the more you do, the more injuries you suffer. M:Interesting. Sounds like a good reason for me not to worry about doing only a couple of hours a week. W: The article mentions lots of hobbies that I have never heard of. But I can't say anything that particularly appeals to me. Text 7 W: I've never tried woodwork before. Is it OK for beginners to take part in your one-day woodwork class? M:Definitely. There'll be a couple of experts leading the class, and we'll keep the number of participants down, so you'll get as much help as you need. W: Excellent! I'd love to be able to make cups or even chairs. M: That's probably too ambitious for one day! You'll be starting with wooden spoons, and of course, learning how to use the tools. And anything you make is yours to take home with you. W:That sounds like fun. Text 8 M:Speaking of safety, you should wait two months until autumn to start learning. It's really difficult and dangerous to drive in the rain as a learner. So you should definitely wait until the weather is cool and dry. W:Okay, that's perfect. Actually, it will give me some time to save up some money to pay for the lessons. I plan to work part-time instead of asking my parents for the money. M:Yeah. The whole process is so expensive. W:How much did it cost you in the end? M: Well, each lesson cost $30, and then the final test cost $50. In total, it cost me $320. Text 9 M: Ann, what is it like working as a receptionist? W: It's very tiring, but it's much better than I expected. I think meeting so many people from all over the world is the most fascinating part. M:Aren't some of the hotel guests difficult to deal with? W:Yes, there are always a few that give me a hard time, but I've learned how to deal with them. M:Are you satisfied with the salary? W: Considering the long working hours, I can't say I am totally happy about it. Then again, I'm new at the job. The hotel owner is very happy with me, and I'm sure next year he'll give me a raise. M:Do you usually work the morning shift? W:Yes, but twice a week I have the night shift, which is not interesting as there isn't much to do. M:I see your point. Text 10 Hello, everyone. Today I'd like to show you a few important college facilities. I hope you have managed to pick up a map of the college campus on your way in. First of all, I imagine most of you have noticed the car park and the registration building when you enter the campus, and they are at the bottom of your map. And it's easy to find the sports center as it's conveniently located by the playing fields. And you can see that at the bottom right of the map, there's basically a path that leads up through the center with facilities on each side. One of the most important places is the library. It is situated on the left of the main path, just behind the cafe. I'd now like to draw your attention to a new building on campus. This is the innovation center, where we're hoping that all your creative ideas will produce some great new inventions. To get there, follow the central path past the arts building on your left. Cross the river, and it's the new building on the right;the building on the left is the medical center. And if any of you have any medical conditions, please call in here and register with the nurse. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $这是2025至2026学年度第二学期高二年级期中考试英语试题听力部分，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?

B When I reflect on my years in high school, one particular figure stands out like a lighthouse in the fog of conventional classrooms: Mr. Wesley Hart. For most of us, the bell schedule determined the rhythm of our days. First period was math, where we would quietly solve problems from a textbook. Then, we'd drag ourselves to history class, where mindless memorization left us battling to keep our eyes open. Next was science, where we mechanically followed laboratory procedures. This cycle repeated itself, class after class, day after day. Until, that is, we reached Mr. Hart's literature class. His classroom didn't have the boring rows of desks facing a chalkboard, instead, it had mismatched sofas. Mr. Hart believed that the physical environment of a classroom could “liberate the mind” — a phrase he often said with such conviction that we couldn't help but believe he must be right. One of Mr. Hart's most memorable teaching moments occurred when we were studying Moby Dick. Rather than assigning an essay, he took us on a nighttime adventure. We met at the school's sports field where he handed each of us a passage from the book. The evening air was thick with anticipation and the smell of the grass as we gathered in a circle. “In the spirit of sailors in Moby Dick, we will share our thoughts under the stars,” he announced. He then inspired us to read our passages aloud and relate them to modern-day situations and personal experiences. In the quiet of the night, I found the themes far more meaningful in that starlit, open-air classroom. Perhaps the most valuable lesson I learned from Mr. Hart wasn't about literature. It was that learning is a voyage, where curiosity and passion are the sails driving us forward. Mr. Hart taught us to question, to wonder, and to see the world as an endless storybook filled with lessons waiting to be discovered. 24. What does the bell schedule in paragraph 2 show? A. The depth of textbooks. B. The diversity of high school life. C. The importance of study. D. The boredom of conventional classes. 25. What does the underlined word “conviction” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Concern. B. Certainty. C. Doubt. D. Interest. 26. Why does the author mention Mr. Hart's teaching moment? A. To reveal the theme of Moby Dick. B. To recall Mr. Hart's nighttime adventure. C. To stress the status of Moby Dick. D. To highlight Mr. Hart's creative teaching. 27. Which of the following best describes Mr. Hart? A. Curious and brave. B. Tolerant and helpful. C. Creative and inspiring. D. Ambitious and determined. C Creativity scholars are often asked whether everyone is creative. Not everyone is creative in the sense of having developed new products that enrich our lives. However, everyone might be able to build their creative potential. Creative potential is best described as the combination of the capacity for creative thinking and the drive for creativity. Creative thinking is called for when we are facing open-ended problems which cannot be addressed by following a precise step-by-step process. The drive for creativity is based on our confidence that we can be creative. It is a common belief that schools kill creativity. Research shows that this belief is not supported by evidence. On the contrary, creative thinking abilities tend to grow as students progress through school. Why does the capacity to think creatively increase with schooling, although schools do not teach creative thinking explicitly (外显地)? This is due to the nature of creative thinking itself. New ideas are built from knowledge and experience, often by applying them in new ways. A student who takes a machining class might be more likely to think of unusual uses for a can, such as turning it into an organizer for different tools. Similarly, a theater class might inspire ideas how a can might be turned into a tool to make sound effects. Developing the drive for creativity is largely about implicit (内隐的) learning. Scientists have shown that creative confidence is boosted when others, especially those in authority, such as teachers or leaders, expect us to be creative and encourage us. It is as if we think, “Well, they think I can, therefore I should be able to.” We are not aware of these influences, but they are real nevertheless. If you aim to build creative potential, start small. Next, aim for multiple ideas. Finally, understand that creative potential is not fixed. It grows as we expand what we know and how we see ourselves and creativity. By building potential, we create the foundation from which what we could do can be transformed into what we actually do. 28. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. Steps of building creativity. B. The pursuit of being creative. C. Effects of creative thinking. D. The definition of creative potential. 29. How does the author prove that creativity increases with schooling? A. By giving examples. B. By citing a study. C. By providing statistics. D. By quoting an expert. 30. What can be inferred about the drive for creativity? A. It relies on those in authority. B. We know where it comes from. C. It grows as we are encouraged. D. We have high expectations for it. 31. What is the author's purpose in writing the text? A. To illustrate that not everyone is creative. B. To explain how to build creative potential. C. To prove that schools do not kill creativity. D. To show how to boost creative confidence. D Each year an estimated one billion birds die from crashing into windows, and countless more exhaust themselves trying to make their way through artificially lit spaces. It's a crisis for migratory species that are already facing sharp population declines because of climate change, habitat loss and pesticide (杀虫剂) exposure. Migratory birds often move at night, when they find their way using specialized cells that can sense Earth's magnetic field (磁场) and take visual clues from the faint light of the moon and stars. Artificial lights disturb this carefully tuned internal compass, throwing birds off their path and even trapping them in bright light. “Unlike a lot of these huge sources of deaths — like changing climates — that individuals can't influence as much as we'd like to, we can truly help with the overnight lighting problem,” says S.K. Winnicki, an evolutionary ecologist. The number of migratory birds overhead varies according to weather conditions and the location along the flyway. But generally, the number of migratory birds reaches its peak between two and four hours after sunset in the spring and fall. During these times, the easiest way to help birds is to turn off unneeded lights at night and to close curtains or blinds. For birds that don't make it out of cities before the end of the night, one of the biggest dangers is crashing into glass while looking for a green space to rest. To help migratory birds in the daytime, experts suggest adding markers that will make the glass more visible to fast-moving birds. These markers could be as simple as a pattern of dots on the outside of the window or as complex as UV coatings (紫外涂层) that birds can see but humans can't. “It's tough to be a bird,” says Dustin Partridge, senior director at the nonprofit NYC Bird Alliance. “We've built up cities in their path, and this presents risks, but those issues are things that can be easily fixed.” 32. What can be learnt about migratory birds from the first two paragraphs? A. They hit windows after a long flight. B. They have trouble finding enough food. C. They rely on artificial light to make their way. D. They get lost due to a disturbed internal system. 33. What do Winnicki's words imply? A. Migratory birds are dying out. B. Climate change takes a good turn. C. Ordinary people can do their part. D. Nighttime lighting is beyond control. 34. What is experts' suggestion for helping migratory birds during the day? A. Keep lights off. B. Close curtains or blinds. C. Offer green space. D. Add markers to glass. 35. What can be a suitable title of the text? A. Negative effects of artificial light. B. How darkness might save migratory birds. C. Different crises for migratory birds. D. How migratory birds would move at night. 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The Consequences of Having No Consequences As a youth football coach, I have watched players develop in real time through both successes and failures. Yet one season stands out. During that season, a talented group faced no punishments for missed practices or low effort. As a result, attendance dropped and performance declined. When the season ended with early losses, the players expressed shock and blame. 36 In my coaching, I apply natural consequences. Players who skip physical training sit out the next session. No exceptions. No second chances. The result has been obvious. 37 Young athletes learn that preparation determines performance. 38 When schools remove failing grades or reduce homework standards, students lose the link between effort and outcome. But consequences make it clear that effort produces results. A missed deadline receives a zero. An incomplete assignment requires revision during personal time. Students learn time management and responsibility as these habits transfer to professional life. Actually, consequences are not punishments and they are teachers revealing the connection between choices and results. They prepare people for real life. Parents who allow natural outcomes raise responsible adults. 39 Coaches who apply consequences develop tough athletes. Therefore, allow consequences to do their work. The result is that individuals will possess internal strength. That strength benefits families, workplaces, and communities. 40 The path forward requires courage from adults to step back and let consequences teach. The payoff is well worth it. A. Classrooms follow the same principle. B. Attendance improves and effort increases. C. The absence of consequences extends into adulthood. D. It creates a society grounded in personal responsibility. E. They had never learned that actions carry consequences. F. Educators who enforce standards prepare capable graduates. G. Consequences are most effective when introduced gradually. 第三部分语言知识运用 (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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I moved to an average town in Oxfordshire in my late 20s.

One particularly beautiful cover caught my eye, on which the golden Chinese characters read Pride and Prejudice. As I read, I felt transported to another world. I had never felt so close to the characters in a book. That was me, a bookworm, before we moved to the United States. I had been outgoing in China, but I felt lonely here. When the teachers spoke to me, their efforts to help me understand through body language embarrassed me. What embarrassed me more was my accent, so I seldom talked with the kids in my class. I began to dislike school. And though I had always loved books, I hated reading in English. My 5th grade English teacher, Ms. Thomas, gave me books she thought were well-suited for an English Language Learner. However, they were picture books with basically no plot, which bored me to death. One afternoon, Ms. Thomas asked for another short meeting to discuss my reading progress. “Chelsea, I know you love to read, so you must have found those childish books I had given you very boring.” Ms. Thomas said. I nodded in reply. “I think it's time for you to start reading more complicated books. I picked out some classics for you. Would you like to see if you are interested in any of them?” she asked pleasantly. As I turned the pages, I found these thick novels filled with words that I didn't recognize. I was about to tell Ms. Thomas that I didn't like any of them when a copy of Pride and Prejudice caught my eye, just as it had in China. I immediately pulled it out and scanned through it. “Chelsea, are you sure you would like to read it?” Ms. Thomas asked. “It might be too challenging for your reading level!” “I am willing to challenge myself,” I replied. “I will try to read it, even if I need to use the dictionary to understand it.” 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。 Paragraph 1: I read the book in English slowly, determined to finish it. ____________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: I used my newfound confidence to make friends in school. ___________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
