Although the money will cover eighty percent of the costs, local stores are worried that long term roadwork will keep customers away. To help these businesses, the city will set up temporary market stands in nearby parks and provide free bus service during rush hours. Environmental groups are not satisfied because the plan didn't add more bike paths, but in a surprise move, yesterday's updated plan added a five kilometre bike path along the river on the condition that local people can raise five hundred thousand dollars by october. This special condition has LED to strong opinions and lively discussions at recent public meetings. On the positive side, the project will create more than three hundred jobs, especially for people with experience in construction. Training programs will start next week at the local training school. Anyone who is interested can register online or go to the community center before friday. Stay tuned for more news. Good evening. This is city update.

She never thought that one day she would be in a classroom where an English teacher asked her to play a board game in order to learn about climate change. Debra Rosenthal is the professor of the class. At first, Djukic said she was uncertain about Rosenthal’s board game idea. “I was just like: ‘this is interesting, but how much are we actually going to take away from it?” Rosenthal thought her students would gain a greater understanding about how their own ideas and experiences affect climate change. Students do not compete against each other. They work together to choose the best plan of action. The game is different from board games such as Monopoly, where the goal is to win. Rosenthal said she hoped the games would give students a chance to talk about climate change in a new way. “By playing the games, it’s a way to be social, to engage in conversation. There has to be a lot of energy around the table. It’s very collaborative. And in the game that I chose to play, they really were able to work together and try to come up with a solution so that the planet was not destroyed.” During the class, she said, students laughed, disagreed and had to call for votes as a way to decide how to move forward in the game. Djukic said it was a “way to have fun...while also learning about such a serious subject.” The games are global, Djukic said. That is because she and her classmates said they were able to see how one player’s decision about agriculture affected another player on the other side of the world. She said the games showed her that “in the game of climate change and the climate crisis, no individual wins.” “It’s either we all suffer from this, or we all somehow collaborate to work our way out of this and turn the clock back on climate change.” 24．What is the purpose of Rosenthal’s class arrangement? A．To inspire the competition among students. B．To entertain the students with the board game. C．To stress the damage caused by climate change. D．To encourage student’s viewpoints about climate change. 25．Which best describes the board game according to paragraph 4? A．Cooperative. B．Competitive. C．Creative. D．Exclusive. 26．What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs? A．Agriculture is of vital importance to the world. B．The world is a community of shared future. C．Man with strong will can conquer nature. D．Climate change is a tough problem to solve. 27．Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A．Climate change calls for teamwork. B．Climate change leads to global impact. C．A board game helps students understand climate issues. D．A good teacher gives students lifelong benefits. C China on Monday successfully launched the Tianzhou-10 cargo spacecraft (货运飞船) from the Wenchang Space Launch Site, carrying not only supplies for the Chinese space station, but also a pioneering study on the development of “artificial embryos (胚胎)” in space. The mission marks the world’s first attempt to investigate how embryo-like structures develop under real microgravity and universal radiation conditions. Tianzhou-10 carried 67 scientific items weighing more than 768 kilograms to support 41 space science experiments. These projects include life sciences, biotechnology, microgravity physics, astronomy, and Earth science. Among them, the embryo experiment has drawn particular attention. Yu Leqian, the artificial embryo project’s manager, explained that real human embryos are extremely difficult to obtain for large-scale scientific research. Artificial embryos are structures constructed from stem cells that closely look like real embryos. They are not true embryos and cannot develop into an individual human being, but they help study early human embryonic development. According to Yu, the embryo models used in the experiment correspond roughly to a crucial stage of human development between days 14 and 21 after fertilization (受精). It is an extremely important developmental window. Within just a few days, the early forms of all organs begin to develop. Many early development-related diseases, such as deformities and born heart disease, are closely associated with this period. The goal of the research is to understand how gravity shapes life itself and what effects space conditions may have on this critical process. During the mission, the artificial embryos will develop for five days aboard the station under the monitoring of Chinese astronauts. Automated systems will replace nutrient solutions daily. Samples will be frozen in orbit and later returned to Earth for detailed laboratory analysis. “This is our first attempt to answer whether humans can survive and reproduce in space. I hope the answer will be yes,” Yu said. 28．Why has the artificial embryo project attracted particular attention? A．It covers five major research fields. B．It helps explore the origin of embryos. C．It aims to cure humans of genetic diseases. D．It is the first artificial embryo research in space. 29．What do we know about artificial embryos from Yu Leqian? A．They are made from human embryos. B．They are widely used in space research. C．They are an alternative to real embryos. D．They are able to grow into human beings. 30．What can be inferred from Paragraph 4? A．Gravity can be ignored in the embryo experiment. B．Space conditions may affect early organs’ forming. C．Artificial embryos will be put into mass production. D．Artificial embryos may be free from human diseases. 31．What is Yu’s attitude to artificial embryos research in space? A．Critical. B．Positive. C．Unconcerned. D．Worried. D One night in May 2023, a group of people from the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) gathered around a computer monitor on a rooftop. The monitor was linked to equipment that could receive transmissions from a satellite. Around 10 pm, they got a signal. On their monitor, the scientists watched as their equipment turned solar energy into electrical power. The experiment was a success. But it’s just a first step. Eventually, the scientists hope to gather the sun’s energy in giant satellites orbiting Earth and beam it down to the power grid (网格). Solar panels in space would produce a constant stream of power. The idea of solar space stations isn’t new. Science fiction writers thought of it years ago. The problem is getting these power stations into space. The glass solar panels would have to be huge. The cost of launching the parts into orbit would be tremendous. So the Caltech scientists are creating a new kind of solar panel. This one is made out of lightweight materials. And they’re replacing large antennas with tiny ones. Caltech is not the only organization that’s interested in solar power stations. China is planning a mission in 2028 to test its technology. And the European Space Agency is looking to build gigantic solar space stations. For now, the Caltech scientists will continue with their experiments. Their satellite managed to send some energy to Earth. But other parts didn’t work. However, the recent experiment proved that the technology works in space. With more research, it could reach commercial use in the coming decades. The biggest obstacle to building solar power stations in space is not the technology. Launching the materials is too expensive. And that’s changing. The aerospace company SpaceX has been testing reusable rockets. Reusing rockets will bring down the cost of a launch. The cost of gathering solar energy and sending it to Earth will be less. And that will make it more practical. 32．What did the Caltech scientists successfully do in the May 2023 experiment? A．They built a system to charge a laptop from space. B．They unfolded the frame for solar panels in space. C．They transmitted solar energy from space to Earth’s power grid. D．They transformed space-collected sunlight into usable electricity. 33．Why does the author mention China and the European Space Agency’s plans? A．To praise Caltech’s advanced technology. B．To compare their technologies with Caltech’s. C．To show global interest in space solar power. D．To predict the commercial use of solar stations. 34．What contributes to the future use of space solar power? A．The faster progress of technology. B．The lighter weight of solar panels. C．The lower cost of launching materials. D．The greater support from the government. 35．What does the text mainly talk about? A．The breakthrough of SpaceX rockets. B．An experiment on space solar energy. C．Global efforts to build space power stations. D．A successful space exploration by scientists. 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。 Giving and receiving positive feedback Your manager called you and said she would want to discuss your performance in recent projects. 36 . On Monday morning, when you walked into her office, she first praised your excellent work, and you immediately got ready — is this a common setting for the frightening “feedback sandwich”? You are very familiar with this pattern: starting with praise, offering genuine criticism, and ending with more praise. 37 . However, when feedback follows this predictable formula, employees begin to see praise as a filler for criticism, depriving it of its true meaning. Positive feedback is better than being downgraded to a buffer (缓冲) responsibility. It should be used independently as a tool for motivation. Below are three tips to help you make positive feedback count. ● Separate positive from negative feedback When praise always comes before criticism, it loses its power. 38 . Let it be offered without a shadow — no comparison, no subtle correction. Just the simple, honest act of appreciation. ● 39 Psychologist Carol Dweck emphasized our brain’s adaptability and our capacity to develop new abilities. Rather than praising fixed traits like “you have a natural eye for detail,” focus on the process — celebrating effort, creative approaches, and problem-solving persistence. ● Create a culture of offering positive feedback Integrate positive feedback into daily interactions, not just formal reviews. Offer casual appreciation during hallway conversations or coffee breaks. Encourage team members to recognize each other’s contributions. 40 . Transforming a workplace skeptical of positive feedback takes patience, but the rewards extend beyond improved performance to a genuinely enriched professional life. A．Praise a creative mindset B．Develop a growth mindset C．She began criticizing without hesitation D．Ensure that praise sometimes exists independently E．Such habits create an environment where praise flows in all directions F．You spend the entire weekend anxious and question what you did wrong G．Many managers use this technique, wrapping negative feedback between two positives 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四个选项中选出最佳选项。 When I started my advanced chemistry class, I was paired with Leo, a quiet guy who rarely spoke. I was ambitious and obsessed with getting the top 41 . Leo, however, seemed only interested in the pure 42 of the experiments. Our first major project was a complex synthesis (合成).

He showed me that 55 isn’t about avoiding mistakes, but about learning from the beautiful accidents they create. 41．A．score B．effort C．praise D．result 42．A．theory B．fun C．mystery D．nature 43．A．initial B．creative C．necessary D．final 44．A．indifference B．concentration C．anxiety D．impatience 45．A．follow B．observe C．understand D．apply 46．A．process B．truth C．textbook D．fame 47．A．require B．respect C．control D．allow 48．A．look up B．put up with C．give up D．find out 49．A．massive B．strange C．early D．certain 50．A．checked B．altered C．ignored D．found 51．A．planned B．controlled C．designed D．unexpected 52．A．watching B．managing C．embracing D．fearing 53．A．meet B．keep C．hold D．pass 54．A．friend B．guide C．servant D．assistant 55．A．success B．ambition C．efficiency D．excellence 第二节 语法填空（共10小题；每小题1.5分：共15分） 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式（注意：答案请写在答题卡上，写在本卷无效）。 Lego has unveiled Smart Bricks — tech-filled versions of its small building blocks — which it says will bring the blocks 56 life with sound, light and reaction to movement. However, the new product range has got a mixed reaction from play experts, some of whom warn that it may harm 57 makes Lego special for children in an increasingly digital world.

He parked his car by the trailhead near Canyon Lake and started hiking. Accustomed to hiking the shaded, cooler trails near his home, Colt was undone by the intense heat of Arizona’s exposed sun. After five hours, he found himself lost and out of water. Lightheaded, he texted his wife, “I need help. ” But his text didn’t go through; his phone had no service. Colt ate his soft fruit candies bite by bite, fearing they would be his last meal. He thought of his wife and their daughter, hoping that he would get to see them again. Desperate, he fired for help from the signal gun he carried to scare off bears — a final call for help. The sound carried across the rocks to Zeto, a 57-year-old retired firefighter, enjoying his new hobby — hiking mountain trails in Arizona. He knew target practice was banned there, so he thought the pair of shots might be someone shooting at an animal. But when he heard another pair about half an hour later, Zeto’s instincts (本能) , polished over 30 years responding to calls for help, told him the repeated shots must be a signal for help. On previous hikes, Zeto had come across other hikers in need. There was a man who fell and bloodied his head, a woman who broke her leg. As a result, he’d started carrying extra supplies in case others needed help. He hiked in the direction of the shots, and about 45 minutes later, climbing over a hill, he came across Colt, lying on his side. He could tell that Colt was confused, lost and in rough shape. 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。 Zeto knew he must take action quickly. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After almost three tiring hours, they finally made it to Colt’s car. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 河南省信阳高级中学新校（贤岭校区） 2026-2027学年高三上期09月测试（二） 英语答案 题号 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 答案 B C A B B A A C C B 题号 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 答案 C B C A C B B A C A 题号 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 答案 D B B D A B C D C B 题号 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 答案 B D C C B F G D B E 题号 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 答案 A D C B A B B C D A 题号 51 52 53 54 55 答案 D C A B D 56．to 57．what 58．components 59．launched 60．most revolutionary 61．believes 62．to generate 63．marketing 64．previously 65．a 66．范文一（选择Plan A — 美食工坊） Dear Chairman, Regarding the cultural exchange event for the Open Day next month, I’d like to recommend Plan A — the cooking workshop. Food breaks down linguistic barriers, enabling international students to share their family traditions while visitors explore exotic flavors. Unlike calligraphy, which primarily appeals to visual appreciation, cooking engages multiple senses, promising higher participation. Additionally, the hands-on process naturally promotes cross-cultural communication. My concrete suggestion is to reserve the school kitchen from 14:30 to 16:00, and prepare fresh ingredients, disposable plates, and cups for approximately 30 participants, ensuring both safety and enjoyment. Looking forward to your reply. Yours sincerely, Li Hua 范文二（选择Plan B — 书法体验） Dear Chairman, With the annual campus Open Day approaching, I firmly believe Plan B — the calligraphy workshop — offers the most rewarding experience for our cross-cultural event. Calligraphy serves as a window into traditional Chinese philosophy, offering foreign visitors an authentic cultural immersion. Compared with cooking, it demands no fire or complex equipment, making it safer and simpler to organize. Moreover, participants can take home their creations, transforming a brief activity into a lasting souvenir. For practical arrangement, I suggest holding it in the art room from 10:00 to 12:00, with brushes, ink and paper prepared in advance. Looking forward to your reply. Yours sincerely, Li Hua 【导语】本篇书面表达要求考生给学生会主席写邮件推荐自己选择的跨文化交流活动方案，说明理由并提出实施建议。 【详解】以范文一为例： 1. 词汇积累 推荐：recommend→endorse 传统：tradition→convention 吸引：appeal to→draw/fascinate 促进：promote→facilitate 2. 句式拓展 同义句转换 原句：Regarding the cultural exchange event for the Open Day next month, I’d like to recommend Plan A — the cooking workshop. 拓展句：Since the cultural exchange event for the Open Day will be held next month, I’d like to recommend Plan A — the cooking workshop. 【点睛】【高分句型1】Food breaks down linguistic barriers, enabling international students to share their family traditions while visitors explore exotic flavors.(使用了现在分词enabling…作状语、while引导时间状语从句) 【高分句型2】Unlike calligraphy, which primarily appeals to visual appreciation, cooking engages multiple senses, promising higher participation.

In his confused state, Colt mumbled something between ragged breaths, “car...parked...by the lake” , which gave Zeto a fixed destination to aim for: Canyon Lake. Colt was dizzy but could put one foot ahead of the other. Zeto knew the situation was urgent and wanted to take advantage of what strength the younger man had while it lasted. They got moving. But still, Colt grew weaker and weaker. Soon, Zeto had to support Colt so he wouldn’t fall. It made for slow going. They took several short breaks in the shade of the rocks. Zeto was tired from the effort but remained standing. Exhausted as he was, Zeto was determined to get them both to safety. After almost three tiring hours, they finally made it to Colt’s car. As Colt slipped in and out of consciousness, Zeto found his car keys, pushed him inside and drove to the closest town. Zeto then helped Colt out of the car and into an air-conditioned convenience shop. They sat down and poured some sports drinks down their throats. After a spell, Colt began to feel more like himself: His voice was more distinct, his words no longer nonsense. Eventually, the two drove back to the trailhead where their cars were parked. Zeto assured Colt was well enough to drive back to his family. Then they parted ways in their respective cars. Zeto checked in periodically by phone to make sure Colt arrived safely. It wasn’t the last time the two men spoke. They’ve stayed in touch ever since and became friends. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了26岁的电工科尔特独自在亚利桑那州迷信山脉徒步时因酷热迷路缺水，绝望中发射信号枪求救，退休消防员泽托凭借职业本能循声找到虚弱的科尔特，并护送其返回停车处的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句可知，第一段可描写泽托对科尔特进行紧急救助，利用科尔特尚存的体力搀扶其艰难向停车场移动的经过。 ②由第二段首句可知，第二段可描写两人到达后的休整情况，泽托驾车送科尔特到镇上急救，最终确认其安全并与其建立长久友谊的结局。 2. 续写线索：紧急补水——搀扶前行——中途歇息——抵达车辆——驱车求援——恢复联系——结下友谊 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①利用：take advantage of/make use of ②下定决心：be determined to do/make up one’s mind to do 情绪类 ①劳累的：tired/exhausted/worn-out ②时醒时睡：slip in and out of consciousness/hover between consciousness and unconsciousness 【点睛】【高分句型1】In his confused state, Colt mumbled something between ragged breaths, “car...parked...by the lake” , which gave Zeto a fixed destination to aim for: Canyon Lake.(运用了which引导的非限制性定语从句) 【高分句型2】Zeto knew the situation was urgent and wanted to take advantage of what strength the younger man had while it lasted.(运用了省略that的宾语从句和what引导的宾语从句以及while引导的时间状语从句) 附：听力原文： 1． 【原文】M: My father insists I stop eating bread and rice completely, but I feel exhausted without them. W: Instead of going on an extreme diet, why not balance your meals with moderate exercise? 2． 【原文】W: The team ignored all warnings, Jack. M: True, but their final success proved the risk worthwhile. 3． 【原文】M: These strawberries look fresh, but they’re eight dollars a box. W: The organic ones are at least 9.5 dollars per box, though. M: Wow, then these are actually cheaper. I’ll take two boxes of these. 4． 【原文】M: I’d prefer hiking, but if you insist on the cinema, I can compromise. W: Actually, why not bike to the lakeside? It combines both outdoors and relaxation. M: That’s perfect! We get fresh air and exercise without being too tired. Let’s go! 5． 【原文】M: Our math teacher just assigned a lot of homework, but I have basketball club practice tonight. Should I quit the club? W: Before you decide, why not check if the homework can be finished later? M: I tried, but the teacher said it must be handed in tomorrow morning. W: Then ask your coach if you can show up for practice a bit late today. 6．~7． 【原文】M: We should have asked our customers for their opinion first. Then, the new menu prices might not have caused so many complaints. W: That’s true. But the chef insisted on using organic ingredients, which cost more. Should we make the portions smaller instead? M: That might not be a good idea. Our regular customers like how much food they get. What if we add a “healthy choices” section to the menu? That could help balance the cost. W: Good point! Let’s do a survey this weekend. If 60% of people like the idea, we can change the menu next month. M: Should we also advertise it on social media? We have twice as many WeChat followers as last year. W: Great! I’ll write the posts tonight. 8．~10． 【原文】W: I bought these hiking boots from your shop, but the bottoms cracked during a hike. Can I return them? M: Absolutely, if they haven’t been used. However, if they’ve been worn outdoors, we’ll need your receipt and to see the damage. W: The receipt is here. The trail I hiked was listed as “beginner-friendly” on your website. Does that make a difference? M: It does, but only if the damage occurred within the first three days of purchase. Since these were bought 10 days ago. It doesn’t apply. W: What are my choices then? M: We can repair them for free or offer a 50% discount toward a new pair. W: I’d prefer a refund. The tag says “30-day return policy.” M: I’m afraid that policy is for items returned in new condition. Since the boots are damaged, our repair policy applies. 11．~13． 【原文】M: This new recycling guide is confusing. Why can’t we put pizza boxes in the paper bin? They’re made of cardboard! W: Because of oil stains. Even a little food left on them means the whole lot can’t be recycled. Remember what happened last winter? M: You mean when the collection truck refused our building’s bins? But that was plastic bags mixed with bottles! W: It’s the same kind of problem. Now, for glass — only clear bottles go in green bins. Colored glass must go to the downtown center. M: That’s a 40-minute drive! What if I clean wine bottles very carefully? W: I’m afraid not. Colored glass needs a different recycling process. No exceptions. M: What about broken mirrors? The guide doesn’t say. W: Those are harmful waste. Wrap them in old newspaper and take them to the special collection point on Maple Street. M: This new system is much more complicated than the one in our old town. 14．~17． 【原文】W: I wouldn’t have applied for this job if I knew it required past experience with data. My training only taught me basic Excel skills. M: Don’t worry. The HR team called you for an interview, so they believe you have potential. W: Maybe a little, but I’m really nervous about the computer test tomorrow. What if I can’t complete the task? M: Then focus on what you’re good at. The report you wrote for Professor Lee’s project was excellent. Use its structure as an example — we can use public datasets and adjust them. W: That might work. Thank you. Let’s meet at the library at 7. By the way, does your roommate still work at TechHub? He might know what kind of test it is. M: He left last month, but I’ll ask around. For now, practice presenting — being confident is more important than being perfect. W: You’re right. I’ll practice by myself later. I hope all this hard work will be worth it. 18．~20． 【原文】W: Good evening! This is City Update. The city council has approved the Riverside Project and has even added $2 million to protect the old markets in the downtown area. Work will begin next month. The first steps will include making wider walking areas and installing solar-powered street lights. However, there are still some problems. Although the money will cover 80% of the costs, local stores are worried that long-term road work will keep customers away. To help these businesses, the city will set up temporary market stands in nearby parks and provide free bus service during rush hours. Environmental groups are not satisfied because the plan didn’t add more bike paths. But in a surprise move, yesterday’s updated plan added a 5-kilometer bike path along the river — on the condition that local people can raise $500,000 by October. This special condition has led to strong opinions and lively discussions at recent public meetings. On the positive side, the project will create more than 300 jobs, especially for people with experience in construction. Training programs will start next week at the local training school. Anyone who is interested can register online or go to the community center before Friday. Stay tuned for more news! 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
