226学年第一学期9月学情调研 英语 考试时间：120分钟 命题人：沈红娟审题人：崔美龄 第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分50分) 第一节（共15小题：每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A Composition of E-Waste Nowadays,e-waste is one of the world's fastest-growing waste streams.Waste electronics contain harmful substances like lead and mercury,posing serious environmental and health risks. Printed circuit boards(2%) Pollutants(1%) Screens (CRT and LCD)(12%) Others(3%) Cables(2%) Metal-Plastics mixture(5%) Metals(60%) Plastics (15%) However,e-waste also represents a valuable "urban mine".It holds an estimated 31 million tonnes of metals, 17 million tonnes of plastics,and 14 million tonnes of glass.One tonne of circuit boards can contain up to 800 times more gold than a tonne of gold-bearing rocks.Despite this.less than 1%of rare earth elements are recycled. Recycled e-waste is a valuable resource for sustainable manufacturing ()Its metals,e.g.gold and copper,are reused in electronics,vehicles,and renewable energy systems.Recovered plastics find new life in durable products,while giass is processed into building materials.This circular()approach cuts energy use, reduces mining demand,and transforms waste into industrial resources,supporting both the economy and the environment. The e-waste management market is projected to more than double by 2027.While 81 countries have adopted Extended Producer Responsibility laws,collection rates still fall behind policy goals. To improve recycling,governments should strengthen EPR laws,and invest in facilities.Institutions can promote research and public awareness.Individuals should properly drop off e-waste at collection points,fix items rather than throw them away,and support brands with strong environmental commitments. 21.What percentage do screens and cables account for in all e-waste compositions? A.12%. B.14%. C.17%. D.60%. 22.What is a key advantage ofe-waste compared to natural-mines? A.It can be richer in precious metals. B.It provides more recoverable non-metals. C.It works better as building materials. D It contains a greater variety of rare elements. 23.What is suggested for individuals to help recycle e-waste? A.Invest in formal recycling facilities. B.Choose repair over replacement. C.Launch public awareness campaigns. D.Set clear personal take-back plans. B When I was twelve,my grandmother gave me an unusual task:to water her garden not with a hose(),but with a small,bent tin cup.The hose is too fast,"she said,adjusting her straw hat."It doesn't know when to stop. The cup makes you look at every leaf." I-grumbled,faturally.It fook an hour to water what could have been done in ten minutes.I marched back and forth to the rain bucket,splashing water onto the thirsty soil.But as the weeks passed,the forced slowness began to change things.I started noticing the small dramas of the garden:the determined climb of a ladybug,the slight droop of a begonia (that needed extra care,the way the soil darkened when it had truly had enough to drink. One afternoon,I found a cocoon (attached to a tomato vine.If I had been blasting away with the hose,I would have knocked it off.Instead,I sat and watched.Over the next few days,I saw the miracle of transformation. When the butterfly finally emerged,drying its wings in the sun,I felt a sense of ownership.I hadn't just watered a plant;I had protected a life. Years later,working as a high-speed data analyst,I often felt overwhelmed by the constant flow of information.It was like the hosetoo fast,too much,blindly covering everything.One day,stressed and burnt out, I remembered the tin cup.I turned off my monitors and printed out just one complex dataset.I sat with it,pencil in hand,looking at every "leaf'of data. My boss was skeptical of my slow pace,until I found a critical error that the automated algorithms had missed. "How did you spot that?"he asked.I smiled,thinking of the tomato vine."I stopped using the hose,"I said. 24.Why did the grandmother ask the author to water the garden with a tin cup? A.To save water during a drought. B.To replace the broken hose. C.To encourage the author's patience. D.To punish the author for laziness. 25.What does the underlined phrase"the small dramas of the garden"refer to in the second paragraph? A.The plays performed in the garden. B.The subtle and lively details of nature. e.The conflicts between different plants. D.The fascinating behaviors of garden creatures. 26.How did the author's childhood experience influence his.career? A.It made him focused and detailed. B.It directly inspired his career choice. C.It inspired him to take up gardening. D.It taught him to appreciate physical work. 27.Which is a suitable title for the text? A.The Joy of Slow Living B.A Lesson from the Tin Cup C.The Challenge of Data Analysis D The Way of Watering the Garden Q When a Los Angeles hospital authorized handwriting courses for its doctors,it highlighted a modern contradiction:in an era of digital perfection,the simple act of writing by hand remains critically important.The chief of staff explained to Science Daily,Many of our physicians don't write clearly."The consequences can be severe,as seen in an unfortunate case where a chemist's misreading of a doctor's prescription (led to a patient's death. 2 Even though many medical records are now stored on computers,physicians still spend a lot of their time writing notes on charts or writing prescriptions by hand.Clarity in handwriting isn't merely an aid to communication.In some significant way,writing by hand primes the brain for learning to read.Psychologists Mueller and Oppenheimer found that Laptop note takers'tendency to write down lectures verbatim ( rather than processing information and reframing it in their own words-has-a-negatiye effect on learning."In their experiments,students typing notes processed information shallowly,while those writing by hand were forced to summarize,leading to better understanding.The slower pace of pen and paper acts as a cognitive filter,activating the brain for deeper comprehension. Yet,the skill is fading rapidly.Researchers worry that abandoning the pen for the keyboard will lead to any number of unforeseen negative consequences.Anne Mangen,who studies how technology transforms literacy, notes that typing,being more"abstract and unconnected,"could have profound implications;this decline is similar to a form of cultural pollution,a loss of a fundamental human capacity. A common misconception is that we have simply traded an inefficient tool for a superior one.However,like the loss of face-to-face interaction,this trade for efficiency comes at a hidden cost.We are sacrificing irrecoverable ways of learning and knowing.Ultimately,a child who masters the keyboard but cannot sign their name is not a symbol of progress. Handwriting is not a relic;it is a vital thread in the fabric of our cognition,-and its wearing"demands our immediate attention. 28.Why did the hospital introduce handwriting courses? A.To follow the latest handwriting trend. B.To prevent potential medical accidents. C.To improve doctors'handwriting skills. D.To promote the use of handwritten records. 29.What can we-learn from Mueller and Oppenheimer's research? A.Typing facilitates meaningful understanding. B.Note taking blocks verbatim comprehension. e.Keyboarding ensures higher learning efficiency. D.Handwriting benefits deeper cognitive engagement. 30.What is the cost of abandoning handwriting? A.The pollution of a traditional culture. B.The decline in communication efficiency. C.The over-reliance on modern technologies. D.The fading of an essential cognitive ability. 31.What does the author suggest we do? A Preserve handwriting as a tradition. B.Encourage keyboard use in education. C.Value the crucial role of handwriting. D.Introduce handwriting courses widely. D From live speech translation in video calls to auto-dubbing on TikTok,real-time translation powered by artificial intelligence(AD)is now embedded in everyday life.All this raises a vital question.If machines can do this faster and more accurately than humans,is investing years in learning another language stilf worth it? Our recent study examined cognitive performance in 94 adults aged 18 to 83,using both visuospatial and auditory tasks across working memory;attention and inhibition.Put simply,we looked at how people process and respond to information they see or mentally map out in space(visuospatial)and information they hear(auditory). Examples include remembering sounds,focusing on visual patterns,or ignoring distractions. 3 Our study measured multilingualism as a spectrum(),not a category.This allowed us to capture diverse language backgrounds and experiences.Multilingual participants spoke a range of languages with varying levels of proficiency and daily use,reflecting the linguistic diversity common within multicultural communities. Across most tasks,multilinguals and monolinguals performed similarly.However,one pattern was striking. Individuals with richer,more diverse multilingual experience showed markedly better performance in visuospatial working memory.These effects were most pronounced in older people. This suggests that multilingual experience doesn't broadly enhance cognition,like some headlines claim. Instead,it may help preserve specific functions over time.Separate population-level research has also linked multilingualism to later onset of Alzheimer's disease and better overall ageing outcomes,though the mechanisms continue to be debated. Overall,however,it appears that sustained use of multiple languages represents a form of mental activity with effects that accumulate across a lifetime. AI translation excels at speed and accessibility.For many practical purposes,it works remarkably well.AI will continue to change how we engage with language learning.It can personalize instruction,minimize barriers and provide feedback at scale.But it can't replace the cognitive work that comes from learning a language.This work builds and preserves the mental sharpness that sustains us across a lifetime.And this difference stil matters. 32.Why does the author mention"live speech translation"and"auto-dubbing"in paragraph 1? To choose one as the topic. B.To invite further reflection. C.To recommend translation apps. D.To praise technological advances. 33.What do we know about the recent study? A.Its method is totally traditional B.Its process is very time-consuming. C.Its subjects are distributed across ages. D.Its results match most previous claims. 34.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A.AI translation excels in a wide range of aspects. B.AI will not shake the value of language learning. C.AI era greatly changes how people use a language. D.AI has a long way to go before doing cognitive work. 35.Where is the article most probably taken from? A.A science magazine. B.A local news update. C..A technological brochure. D.An English-learning guide. 第二节阅读填空（共5小题：每小题2.5分。满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项巾有两项为多余选项。 More than 30%of Gen Alpha children long to become social media creators,with around 32%of 12-15 year olds naming"YouTuber"as their dream job.36:;his is where parental involvement becomes not just helpful, but vital,turning the risks into valuable teachable moments. To that end,parents should communicate with kids in a curious and open manner rather than being critical. When children express the desire to be online influencers,parents should avoid shutting down their enthusiasm. 37 For example,they can ask why their children want to create online content and what they plan to post.By showing respect for their kids'interests,parents build trust and naturally introduce safety topics like privacy settings and online boundaries. Beyond that,parents should help children develop safe digitalhabits.They can set up accounts together to adjust privacy settings,turn off location tagging,and set strong passwords.Meanwhile,children must be taught not to share private details such as home addresses,school names and daily schedules.8 Warning children against hidden online dangers is equally necessary.As would-be young influencers start gaining visibility,they may be targeted by scams that aim to steal personal data.39 They also need to recognize ill-intentioned strangers and dangerous behavior,such as frequent personal messages,requests for secrecy,or pressure to share private photos. Actually,children's wish to create online content is a way to express their identity and creativity. 40 With proper parental guidance,young creators can build their voice without compromising their safety A These measures can effectively minimize online risks. B.However,this pursuit comes with potential digital risks. C.Teenagers tend to spend much time watching online videos. D.Parents should fully understand teenagers'craze for online creation. E.Kids should learn to identify suspicious links,fake offers,and other traps. K Instead,they need genuine conversations to learn about their children's ideas. G.Parents can support it through open dialogue,practical habits,and risk awareness. 第二部分语言运用（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，并 在答题纸上将该项涂黑。 Every morning,Kofi woke up with a quet sign.He reached for his phone out of habit,and as he scrolled,his chest 41 slightly.His classmates were posting acceptance letters and photos from campus visits,their futures already beginning to 42.He told himself he was happy for them.Sometimes that was true.but other times,it was a 43 he repeated until it sounded polite.

Then Jeff noticed steam shooting out of the pot and the lid starting to shake.The next minute,the porridge boiled over and put out the fire.Jenna panicked.Thankfully,Jeff stayed calm and tumed off the gas quickly.But the stove was a mess now.Jenna told Jeff to clean it up so they could continue to cook the rest of the porridge.But Jeffs hand touched the hot burner and he gave a cry of pain.Jenna made him put his hand in cold water.Then she caught the smell of burning.Oh dear!The piece of bread in the pan had turned black as well. 7 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右： 2.请按如下格式在答题卷的相应位置作答。 As the twins looked around them in disappointment,their father appeared.

That far journey didn't just open my eyes;it opened my heart to lives and stories that no books could ever capture.And that,I believe,is the true reward of traveling far.(120 words) Possible version 2: Travel Far,Know More The proverb"A person who travels far knows more"suggests that stepping out of our comfort zone exposes us to realities beyond books. I learned this truth in a remote village,planting rice alongside locals.We stood in the muddy fields, bending over for hours under the scorching sun,until my back ached and my legs were covered with mosquito bites.An old woman with a sunburnt face smiled and handed me a bowl of tea,which moved me to tears.I came to help,but left knowing the cost of every grain and the warmth of strangers. The trip taught me that traveling far isn't about distance,but about stepping into others'life and reflecting on ours.The farther we go,the more we know.(126 words) 第二节读后续写（共1小题；满分25分) Possible version 1: As the twins looked around them in disappointment,their father appeared.Faced with the mess the twins had made of the kitchen,Father felt annoyed but tried to contain himself.Jenna ran up to him,whispering "We.We just want to make breakfast for Mom as Mother's Day gift.After he learned what all was about, his annoyance gave way to relief and delight.Immediately,he joined them and they started all over again.Soon the French toast and chicken porridge were ready,the kitchen filled with the scent of breakfast and sweetness of a family.Looking at the work,the three exchanged an understanding smile.After signaling them to keep it a secret,Father slipped into the bedroom,pretending to know nothing about it. The twins carrled the breakfast upstairs and woke their mother up.Still a little sleepy,Mother failed to figure out what they were up to."Happy Mother's Day!The twins congratulated."We made breakfast for you as you do that for us.Mom,we love you!"Though still in her pajamas,Mother took a bite of the toast and sipped the hot porridge.Lost in the delicious breakfast and pure love from her twins,she sobbed,with delightful tears streaming down her face.Lovingly,she pressed two gentle kisses on their foreheads,proudly enjoying their best wishes.Their father was standing in the doorway,recording this touching scene.The whole room was bathed in a happy Mother's Day atmosphere. Possible version 2: As the twins looked around them in disappointment,their father appeared.Seeing the mess,Father froze with shock,as ifrooted on the ground.From the black bread and the spilled porridge,he suddenly figured out their secret.A smile of understanding flashed across his face.He realized their intention.He joined them in preparing the Mother's Day surprise immediately.They started all over again.Everything went smcothly. The chicken and rice were dancing harmoniously in the boiling water pot and bread slices were showing off its most tremendous golden color.Soon the French toast and chicken porridge were ready,the kitchen filled with the scent of breakfast and sweetness of a family.Despite the oil stains on the twins'aprons,nothing seemed imperfect,and all was in place except the most important one. The twins carried the breakfast upstairs and woke their mother up.Still a little sleepy,mother failed to figure out what they were up to,but the cheerful "Happy Mother's Day"from the two sweeties brought her back to reality.The breakfast with love made by her twins really struck her heartstrings.Mother kissed them and gave them each a bear hug,saying "Oh dear,thank you my sweeties.What a big surprise!"The next moment,she woke up father,eager to share the blessing and the inviting breakfast seasoned with love. Father,who had been awake,cooperatively rubbed his eyes and took a big bite,winking at the twins secretly. After all,the surprise did make a sweet surprise! 2
