Nowadays, with the rapid development of technology, a number of students turn to AI to polish up our English compositions. From my point of view, AI brings considerable benefits to our English writing. For one thing, AI can efficiently spot grammar mistakes and polish awkward expressions, helping us learn more authentic ways of writing. For another, it provides instant feedback for our self-study. With its help, we can ease our fear of English writing and gradually build up our confidence. To sum up, we should embrace new technology wisely. Properly used, AI will serve as a powerful helper in our writing practice. 【范文二：反对】 Should we use AI to polish up our compositions? With the rapid development of technology, numerous students depend on AI to polish up our English compositions. From my individual perspective, the drawbacks outweigh its benefits. To begin with, the high efficiency of AI robs us of the valuable chance to reflect on our writings and weakens our willingness to revise them independently, leading to over-reliance in the long term. In addition, writing is meant to convey our true inner feelings. compositions polished by AI may sound fancy in language but lack our genuine thoughts. Therefore, we ought to improve our compositions through continuous practice rather than turn to AI for assistance. 第二节（满分25分） It was a young bear, targeting their store for his nightly meals! In the video, the bear pushed open the door with its claws, walked straight to the candy shelf, and stuffed its mouth with chocolates again and again. It even sat down, licking its sticky paws with satisfaction, completely unaware of being watched. “Look, he is not stealing; he is just hungry,” Jean whispered, her shock turning into amusement. John stared with wide eyes and could not help laughing, “I have never seen such a cute thief. Luckily it was not a real robber.” Watching the funny scene, they finally relaxed. Instead of frightening the bear away, they decided to treat it outside the store. First, John called a locksmith to fix the broken lock so that real thieves could not get in. Then they put a basket of fresh apples and honey on a rock far from the door, hoping the little bear would find it. The next morning, the basket was empty, and the candy shelf was left untouched. From then on, they refilled the basket every day, and the bear came for its treat instead of breaking in. Jean smiled as she realized that a little kindness had solved the mystery in such an unexpected way. 听力原文： Text 1 M: That’s a good picture of you. You look quite charming with the fantastic view as the background. W: Yes, I had a great time in the mountains, and I stayed in a really nice hotel. Text 2 M: I’m too tired to cook at home tonight. W: Well, there’s a lovely romantic place on the high street. A little change might be just what we need. Text 3 M: Seriously? I must have checked my watch 30 times. Now we’ve missed the opening scene. W: Sorry, the train I was on had an engine problem halfway here. Text 4 W: Why don’t we have a coffee and take it easy this afternoon? M: Don’t you remember the big exam we will have in two days? Text 5 W: David, there’s a card from the Browns. They thanked us for helping water their plants and invited us to a garden party next Saturday. M: Great! I was wondering when they’d be back. Do we need to bring a present? Text 6 W: Did you go to the awards ceremony for the school drama festival yesterday? M: No. I went to the movies with my sister and then we enjoyed some paintings in an art museum. Which works won awards? W: On Friday won for art and costumes, and The Dreamland won for visual effects and sound. And My Cat also won an award. I like it best because of its heart-warming story. M: Wow, I wish I hadn’t missed it. Text 7 M: Sorry to bother you. By any chance, do you have a few dollars? I’m trying to get a taxi back to the hotel but I lost my wallet. I was hoping to ask for 20 dollars. W: 20 dollars? M: Yes. May I have your name, please? So I can give the money back to you when I get to the hotel. W: Mia. Where did you lose your wallet? M: On the beach. W: I have 18 dollars. And my friend may have another two dollars. M: Thank you so much. You are so nice. W: It’s OK. We all need a hand sometimes. M: Well, Mia. You are the first person who said “yes” to me. Thanks a million. W: You’re welcome! Text 8 M: I think it is over now. There hasn’t been any movement for the past half hour. W: Wow! That was scary. Look, my favorite teapot fell off the shelf and broke. M: Count yourself lucky. That’s the only damage. Earthquakes often kill people, you know. W: Maybe the damage is worse in other places. Turn on the TV and see if there are any reports. M: I can’t. The power’s still off. It must have damaged the lines. W: That’s a shame. What about the radio? M: We hardly ever use it. Even if the batteries were good, the reception would be poor. W: Well, we should keep some batteries in our house, just for emergencies. Batteries are just as important as food when something like this happens. M: You’re right. Text 9 M: Hey, Linda. How was your trip to Italy? W: We had a very tight schedule, and many places were jam-packed with tourists. Surprisingly, my brother Tom ended up pleased, though he initially thought it was boring. M: How do you relax when travel wears you down? W: I always slow the pace and even rest in the hotel. What about you? M: I usually hurry to tour as many scenic spots as possible. I don’t even think about taking a break. W: You don’t have to visit every single tourist attraction. You can stop for a rest if you feel tired. Sometimes short breaks can make a big difference. M: You’re right. By the way, I want to drive to the seaside to watch a band’s live performance next weekend. Would you like to join me? W: Sure. I’ll bring my camera. Text 10 May I have your attention, please? I know it’s the end of the day, and we are all eager to begin our holiday. But before we go, I’d like to take a moment to look back at what we’ve achieved together this year. Since the summer, we have been focusing our efforts on an ambitious goal: developing three new products by the end of the year. And here we are—just before the end of November—mission already accomplished! As your general manager, I couldn’t be prouder to congratulate this incredible team. Now for some good news: after the discussions with the board, I’m pleased to announce that everyone will be receiving a special holiday gift. While last year we celebrated with extra vacation days, this year you’ll find something even better in your paychecks—a holiday bonus that’s double last year’s amount! This reflects our outstanding product development and sales performance, but more importantly, it recognizes the exceptional teamwork I’ve witnessed every day. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026～2027学年第一学期镇江市高三期初监测 英语试卷 2026.09 注意：本试卷分第一卷（选择题）和第二卷（非选择题）两部分。两部分答案都做在答题卡上。总分为150分。考试时间120分钟。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 1.

The host asks you to take your seat in front of the vintage (复古) typewriter that calls to you. The host is Daniella Zanchi, founder of Poesy, a Canadian company that holds monthly poetry and letter writing workshops. “We go through basics of poetry writing,” says Ms. Zanchi, “or we’ll focus on how to write a poem drawn from the conversation with others.” Everyone gets a handout with three prompts (提示). “We encourage them to write two sentences per prompt, and then we teach them to cut the extra words and do what we call ‘mining for gold’,” she says. Once they’ve found their “gold,” — the best bits in their free writing — they start typing. “The typewriter requires you to slow down, because, unlike a laptop, you need to type with one finger at a time,” says Ms. Zanchi, “so you have more time to think about what you put on the page.” As an object that requires focus, the typewriter is central to the workshop’s appeal. “It allows people to unplug, learn to use something new, and create something by hand,” she says. People leave with two poems: one they write for themselves, and one written about them by someone else in the room. Every element of the workshop can be surprisingly satisfying, especially for those who tend to speed through their daily life, addicted to screens. After all, the workshop isn’t just about writing poetry — it’s also about rediscovering what it feels like to create something without a delete button, giving yourself permission to be imperfect. Writing poetry has mental health benefits, similar to those of journaling. It allows people to release thoughts and feelings onto a page and reflect on them intentionally. Beyond the individual benefits, the workshop offers a special experience. “We’ve seen genuine connections come from a space designed to encourage story-sharing and openness,” says Ms. Zanchi. It sounds like the perfect subject for a poem. 24. What are participants guided to do in Ms. Zanchi’s workshops? A. Run writing workshops. B. Find the best parts of their sentences. C. Design writing prompts. D. Learn advanced typing techniques. 25. What makes vintage typewriters attractive to participants? A. Encouraging focused creation. B. Helping reduce spelling mistakes. C. Simplifying poem writing rules. D. Speeding up the thinking process. 26. What does the author suggest by mentioning “create something without a delete button” in paragraph 5? A. Modern tools limit creativity. B. Imperfection is acceptable in creation. C. Careful typing ensures better results. D. Perfection calls for repeated revisions. 27. What is the value of the poetry-writing workshop? A. Working for professional writers. B. Teaching advanced poem writing skills. C. Bringing personal and shared gains. D. Increasing the popularity of poems online. C When measuring the impacts of climate change, we typically focus on visible signs: rising temperatures, hurricane winds, or flood extents. However, the silent yet significant effects of climate change on the human brain are only now starting to be understood. Extreme heat has been tied to worsening symptoms (症状) and increased hospitalizations across a range of nervous system and mental conditions. The same pollutants that scar the lungs may cross into brain tissue, speeding the machinery of aging or increasing the risk of diseases like dementia (痴呆症). Children are particularly vulnerable (易受伤害的) because their brains are still developing. Even being exposed to a traumatic (创伤性的) climate event before birth can change the structure of developing brains, resulting in a higher risk of behavioral disorders later in life. Unfortunately, these damaging effects remain largely invisible. The suffering is real, but the causes are often unknown. A teenager unable to concentrate during a heat wave in an apartment without air conditioning; a grandfather whose dementia worsens during a power failure: These are not just projections; they are happening all around us. This brings us to the concept of “neuroclimate vulnerability” — the risk of the human brain to the side effects of climate change. This risk is shaped by age, existing medical conditions, and socioeconomic factors that determine whether a person can cool down or breathe clean air. For those facing multiple risk factors, the danger multiplies greatly. The greatest challenge in addressing this issue is time. While some consequences emerge quickly as changes in mood or sleep, others, such as Parkinson’s disease (帕金森病), may begin decades before symptoms appear. This makes it extraordinarily difficult to connect today’s environmental exposures with tomorrow’s disease. Worse still, the communities most exposed to this risk are often absent from the clinical studies on which future policies will be built. This invisibility is not unavoidable. Once the harm is named, it can be measured, and if measured, it can be reduced. To achieve this, scientists from various fields have formed the International Neuro Climate Working Group (INCWG). Their goal is to develop practical tools, such as the Brain Vulnerability and Resilience (复原力) Index, to identify those at greatest risk and guide investments. Climate change is already reshaping our brains. The question is whether we will act now to build resilience and change the future for future generations. 28. How does the author develop paragraph 2? A. By presenting findings. B. By giving definitions. C. By making comparisons. D. By quoting comments. 29. What does the underlined word “projections” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Records. B. Facts. C. Predictions. D. Sufferings. 30. What is the main idea of paragraph 5? A. The factors behind future policies. B. The reasons for quick mood changes. C. The features of slow-developing diseases. D. The difficulties of environmental-risk research. 31. What does the INCWG aim to do? A. Study mood changes. B. Promote climate awareness. C. Collect related brain data. D. Create risk-evaluating tools. D Every generation worries that the next is growing distant from classical culture. The proposed solutions are consistently the same: teach more history, assign more classics, build more museums and preserve more heritage. Yet, the anxiety never disappears. Perhaps that is because we keep mistaking preservation for passing culture on. Culture survives not because it is protected, but because it is rediscovered. And rediscovery begins not with duty but with curiosity. I learned this from a video game. As a child, I struggled through Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Years later, I found myself playing a strategy game set in the Three Kingdoms period. For the first time, history became immersive rather than instructional. Soon I was searching historical records, comparing fact with fiction, reading Records of the Three Kingdoms, and eventually writing a song about Sun Shangxiang. That should tell us something. For decades, educators have debated how to convince young people that classical culture matters. Many creators have quietly found an answer: they stopped trying to persuade and started making culture appealing. The medium is not the point. Curiosity is. This realization shaped my work when I began writing my first solo album (专辑), drawing inspiration from figures including Marco Polo. When I decided to write a song about him, I did not want to summarize his travels. Instead, I immersed myself in the details of his journey. Such creative choices do not explain history immediately. Actually, they invite listeners to wonder about their origins. Curiosity is more powerful than explanation because it drives people to explore. The purpose of art is to inspire questions, not give instructions. That is how classical culture survives. Not by demanding respect, but by rewarding curiosity. Creators often speak about preserving tradition, but preservation is only the beginning. Our responsibility is not to seal the past behind glass cases, but to make it resonate（共鸣) in the present — through film, games, music, animation, short videos or whatever form allows a new generation to encounter it as something living rather than distant. The bridge matters more than the memorial. 32. How does culture survive according to the author? A. Through regular history lectures. B. Through strict heritage protection. C. Through new-angle exploration. D. Through frequent museum tours. 33. What was the main effect of the video game experience on the author? A. He showed more interest in fiction. B. He chose to visit historic sites. C. He became deeply engaged in history. D. He began to write history books. 34. Why did the author avoid summarizing Marco Polo’s travels in the song? A. To keep it short and simple. B. To avoid describing complex contents. C. To highlight his contributions. D. To make listeners curious about his journey. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. Stimulate Curiosity to Build the Bridge B. Make Art a Gateway to Classical Culture C. Rewrite History with Creative Works D. Preserve Heritage for Future Generations 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。 Inspire Yourself: Simple Steps to Creative Renewal Oftentimes, people find themselves waiting for inspiration to strike like lightning from some external force. But this kind of waiting is useless, because true inspiration does not live outside of us. It comes from within. 36 The word “inspire” comes from a Latin word meaning “to breathe or blow into”. Each inhale (吸入) draws in vitality; each exhale (呼出) releases what we no longer need. 37 When we breathe with intention, we nourish all the neglected (被忽视的) corners of our inner and outer worlds. Nature has been a source of inspiration for people throughout time. 38 The important key here is that to be inspired by nature, you have to be in nature. Notice the weather, the feel of the air, or any smells. Inspiration is always around us, the key is to stay tuned in enough to become sensitive and aware of it. Furthermore, every time we have a new experience, we become more inspired. When we fall into routines, we are going through daily tasks without thinking. 39 Instead, you can listen to a new song, or visit a new place. This practice will stimulate different parts of your brain, and have you seeing and thinking in new ways. Finally, we often draw inspiration from observing and engaging in creative expression. Watching a play in person can be extremely rewarding. This kind of experience reaches deep within us, touching the core of what it truly means to be human. Observing others as they express themselves puts us more in touch with our own creative nature. 40 It is not uncommon to feel resistance before beginning any one of these things. However, once you take the first step and start, you will find that in that moment inspiration will bloom inside you. A. It is the first thing we do when we enter this world. B. Although this can be comforting, it can also be boring. C. As Van Gogh put it, “The sight of stars makes me dream.” D. In this way, inspiration is a cycle of receiving and releasing. E. It begins the moment we turn inward and choose to awaken it. F. This may mean writing a poem or story, drawing, painting, or dancing. G. As Mountain Dreamer says, “It’s unfamiliar things that stimulate my imagination.” 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。 I was new to south New Jersey.

Some contemporary Zen-style musical pieces are performed on the konghou, 57 traditional Chinese plucked (弹拨) instrument with more than 2,700 years of history. Originally, the konghou came in many different forms, and the vertical (竖的) konghou 58 (introduce) to China’s heartland during the Eastern Han Dynasty via the ancient Silk Road. It boomed in the Tang Dynasty, 59 (frequent) appearing in poems, murals and royal court performances, where it served 60 an important artistic decoration for grand ceremonies. Yet it disappeared during the Ming and Qing dynasties, leaving no surviving scores or recordings behind. In the 1930s, Chinese musicians turned to Dunhuang murals to reconstruct the instrument. These fourth-century murals, painted on Mogao Caves walls in Gansu, contain over 200 images of the konghou, showing its 61 (spirit) charm. Today, young players try their best to realize 62 they believe is the true value of the konghou. They have created numerous original 63 (masterpiece) for films and soundtracks. They hold the belief that 64 the konghou is ancient, it can adapt well to pop and jazz music. 65 (bring) its charm to wider audiences, they will keep exploring new ways of performance. 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 随着科技的发展，不少学生借助AI润色作文。请你为班级英语角写一篇短文，谈谈对此现象的看法，内容包括： 1．表明你的立场； 2．陈述至少两点理由。 注意： 1．写作词数应为80左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Should we use AI to polish up our compositions? ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第二节（满分25分） 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 Jean and John were the proud owners of a popular general store in the small, quiet town of Emerald Forest. Nestled near dense forests and crystal-clear lakes, their cozy shop served both locals and tourists. However, one cold morning, their peaceful routine was suddenly shattered. Upon arriving at work, they found an unwelcome surprise in the candy department: sweets were scattered across the counter, and boxes of chocolates had been violently torn open, leaving a sticky mess! Puzzled and frustrated, they checked the rest of the store. Amazingly, nothing else was out of place. There was no sign of forced entry; the doors and windows were all securely locked. “Perhaps it was squirrels?” Jean suggested hopefully. But John shook his head, pointing out that squirrels couldn’t possibly have opened the front door. After a day of fruitless guessing, they concluded it must be rats. Determined to catch the thief, John set a trap and placed it near the candy display. The next morning, they found similar evidence of a break-in, but the rat trap remained completely untouched. Realizing the intruder (闯入者) was far cleverer than they had thought, Jean suggested installing (安装) a hidden camera. A technician quickly set up the equipment, and they waited anxiously for the night to pass. The following day, they rushed to check the recordings, expecting to see a raccoon (浣熊) or a particularly large rat. The scene on the screen left them absolutely speechless. Staring at the recordings, Jean froze all at once, breath held in her throat. John bent forward, eyes wide and brows raised high.
