costs if they have a health plan with a high amount of money they need to pay by themselves.

I knew the song playing on the radio,but that didn't mean I remembered the name,or
could figure it out.I was on my way from La Pola to Valladolid for a race,listening to KISS-
FM,which in Spain,as in the United States,plays'80s and'90s hits.I recognized most of the
songs,but I would go crazy trying to place this one.So I used an app called T-trace.
T-trace can identify a song within seconds.It records a short part of the music and
compares it with millions of songs in its system.Then it tells you the exact name and the
singer.It seems easy,but the process is similar to what our brain does when we try to
remember something.The difference is that human memory needs more time.
Years earlier,I had a similar experience in a supermarket in Houston,Texas.A song was
playing,and I was sure I had heard it before.However,I could not remember where I had
heard it or who sang it.I tried hard to search my memory,but after several minutes,nothing
came back.
Then I asked a worker nearby,"Excuse me,do you know the song that's playing?What
is it?"He stopped his work and thought for a while."Could it be Briarfall's song?"he said.
But he could not remember the name either.
Later,when I heard the song again,I finally found the answer.It was "Locks"by
Briarfall.Surprisingly,the song brought back many other memories of that day:the
supermarket,the worker,and my grandmother,who was preparing to move to a care home.
All of these moved me deeply.
All these elements,including my grandmother's slow decline,were part of my memories
of that morning in Houston,coloring the picture and deepening the shadows.Even the song
heard on the radio halfway to a race years later,on a late-winter's day,flowed into that
moment in the past.
24.Why did the author use T-trace on the way to Valladolid?
A.To discover a new singer.
B.To record a special memory.
C.To enjoy a music program.
D.To find out a song's information.
25.Which was the worker's reaction to the author's question?
A.He searched for it online.
B.He tried to recall the song.
C.He gave a wrong singer's name.
D.He explained the song's meaning.
26.How did the author feel while hearing the song again?
A.Relaxed.
B.Confused.
C.Touched.
D.Annoyed.
27.What message does the author want to convey through the text?
A.Songs can connect us with past experiences.
B.Memory works better than music apps.
C.Strangers are often willing to offer help.
D.Technology is essential in our daily lives.

Rice University,BCarbon,and Scenic Galveston have launched an innovative project to
protect the Kohfeldt Marsh (near Texas City from sea level rise through the design and
creation of a living shoreline.The effort combines land conservation with carbon credit
financing,supporting the fight against climate change.
Unlike traditional seawalls,living shorelines are erected to work with nature.These
shorelines use rocks or other materials that help break up waves and prevent marsh erosion
(while also encouraging marine life to live well.Over time,seagrass takes root in the
calmer waters.These natural elements,along with the protected marsh,form a self-
sustaining“living'”shoreline.
The project will be paid for through carbon credits,a way of supporting environmental
弥
protection.Companies can buy these credits to reduce their carbon emissions ()The
coastal ecosystems in the project can take in and store carbon dioxide (CO2)from the air,
which helps slow down climate change.The new plan is the first project based on this special
carbon credit system.
"Nature has value,especially when we need to remove a lot of CO2,"said Jim
Blackburn,a professor at Rice University."This project is a small but meaningful step
toward a greener future,"he added.Scientists say our coastal marshes are incredibly
important to our coastal fisheries.Without protection,rising sea levels may destroy these
areas and cause more environmental problems.
封
Another special part of the project is that Rice students will join the work through a
course."This special credit course is quite amazing,"said Philip Bedient,another professor at
Rice University."The students will get wonderful exposure()to a real project.They will
study the ecology of the site and the physical features of the construction area,and they will
design a project to meet these requirements.They will get into the marsh and get their feet
wet.They will work on permitting,which is significant.In all,this is an excellent effort."
28.What is the main purpose of the living shoreline project?
A.To create new places for sea animals.
B.To provide students with outdoor courses.
线
C.To replace traditional seawalls with new ones.
D.To protect coastal areas from the rising sea level.
29.What does the underlined word "erected"in paragraph 2 mean?
A.Crashed.
B.Built.
C.Tested.
D.Copied.
30.What can be inferred from Jim Blackburn's words?
A.Carbon credits are difficult to use.
B.Small projects have little influence.
C.Human activities always partly harm nature.
D.Nature plays an important role in future development.

31.How do Rice students benefit from the project according to Philip Bedient?
A.They will get real-world experience.
B.They will learn new teaching methods.
C.They will be sure to address climate problems.
D.They will be able to design amazing related courses.

In the time it takes you to read this article,somewhere in the universe,two black holes
will have crashed together.In fact,such events happen quite often,each one producing an
astonishing amount of energy.In only a few seconds,a black hole merger (can produce
more energy than the Sun will release during its whole life.After the crash,the two black
holes join together and form a much larger one.
These powerful events can change the shape of space and time,creating waves called
gravitational waves.Although they come from extremely powerful events,these waves are
very weak when they reach Earth.They can travel through the whole planet and cause very
small changes that cannot be seen by human eyes.
For the past ten years,scientists have used special machines like the Laser Interferometer
Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO)to study these waves.When a gravitational wave
passes through LIGO,it changes the length of its arms by a very small amount.However,the
machine is sensitive enough to find these changes.During the past decade,LIGO
and other similar machines have found about 300 black hole mergers.
One event found in 2023 surprised scientists.It was the largest black hole merger ever
recorded.While most mergers create a black hole about 60 times heavier than the Sun,this
one created a black hole almost 200 times heavier.However,black holes that size shouldn't
be able to form.The discovery has left astronomers arguing over how exactly these
“forbidden”black holes came to be.
One explanation for how these seemingly forbidden black holes could come to be was
hiding in plain sight-they themselves were second-generation black holes.
One possible explanation is that these black holes were not formed from stars,but from
earlier mergers of smaller black holes.However,these second-generation black holes are rare
(because after a merger,the new black hole may be pushed away from the place
where it was formed.
32.What happens after two black holes crash together?
A.They change into new stars.
B.They lose most of their energy.
C.They disappear into the space.
D.They make up a larger black hole.
33.What does the author intend to do in paragraph 3?
A.Offer some additional related information.
B.Explain a confusing scientific theory.
C.Present different scientific machines.
D.Introduce a new research question.
【高二英语第6页(共10页)】
·B2·
34.What can be learned about the event in 2023?
A.It proved that old ideas about space were correct.
B.It showed that black holes were easy to discover.
C.It challenged scientists'understanding of black holes.
D.It explained why most black holes were extremely huge.
35.Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Powerful Changes Caused by Gravity
B.Hidden Secrets Behind Black Holes
C.New Discoveries Made by LIGO
D.An Explanation for Black Holes

I'm an American.This was my second Spring Festival in Qingdao and my fifth visit
overall.36 I already knew which relative would host the dinner on which evening.I knew
the rhythm(节奏)of the meals,the predictable(可预测的)laughter at familiar stories.And
yet,that predictability is precisely the point.
What struck me most was not how different the Spring Festival was from holidays I had
known before,but how similar it felt.the desire to return home,the joy of shared meals and
the simple power of being together.37.They belong to all of humanity.
We choose different dates on the calendar.We cook different dishes.We tell different
stories.But there is something universal:a longing to pause the rush of ordinary life and hold
one another a little closer.In Qingdao,surrounded by my wife's family,I did not feel like an
outsider observing a foreign tradition.38.That was recognition.
I realize that our holidays,however different in form,are united in purpose.I also realize
that the world,for all its complexity,still moves to the same quiet rhythm of family and
belonging.If there is something truly extraordinary about the Spring Festival,it is its scale or
history.39·
I hope more people have the opportunity to experience the Spring Festival in China,
whether traveling independently or,if they are fortunate,welcomed into a family home.
40.Because the truest cultural exchange is not about difference at all;but about the quiet
revelation (that we are,in the ways that matter most,beautifully the same.
A.There were few surprises left for me
B.I felt something far more meaningful
C.More importantly,it is its familiarity
D.Everything around me sounded quite strange
E.They will definitely receive congratulations from the family home
F.Not simply to see something different,but to discover something shared
G.These feelings are not unique to the Chinese,Americans,or any particular people

When Ethan moved into Room 305 at Northwood Boarding School,he believed sharing a
room would be easy.His new roommate,Lucas,greeted him warmly,helped him carry his
suitcase upstairs,and even introduced him to several classmates during dinner.Ethan felt
lucky.
The first few weeks went smoothly.Lucas was cheerful and easy to get along with.They
studied together,played basketball after class,and sometimes stayed up talking about future
plans on Saturdays.Ethan gradually felt at home.
Everything changed after the midterm exams.Lucas had recently joined the school debate
team.Every evening,he practiced his speeches aloud,often long after lights-out.He liked
walking around the room while memorizing arguments,occasionally stopping to repeat
difficult sentences again and again.
Ethan,however,had always been a light sleeper.Even the sound of someone turning
pages could wake him.At first,he tried wearing headphones or going to bed later,hoping the
problem would go away itself.Whenever Lucas apologized,Ethan simply smiled and said
everything was fine.But it wasn't.
As the weeks passed,Ethan became more and more tired.He struggled to stay awake in
morning classes and found himself making careless mistakes on quizzes.Dark circles slowly
appeared under his eyes.More than once,he stared at Lucas practicing confidently across the
room and wondered whether keeping silent was really the right choice.
One Friday afternoon,the chemistry teacher handed back their test papers.Ethan looked
down at his score and froze ()It was the lowest grade he had received all year.Walking
back to the dormitory,he kept replaying the past few weeks in his mind.The late-night
speeches,the interrupted(打断的)sleep,the growing frustration(懊丧)he had hidden
behind polite smiles-all of them suddenly felt impossible to ignore.
That evening,Ethan pushed open the dormitory door.Lucas was standing beside his
desk,once again reading his debate notes aloud,completely unaware of Ethan's expression.
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 Lucas practicing as usual,Ethan finally decided it was time to speak honestly.
From the second evening on,they began to carry out the new plan.
