Ten years ago, I was teaching English as a second language to adult immigrants and bored silly. I was looking around for another profession. When my friend Danniel Star took a leave of absence from his teaching job, he started speaking to groups. Although Danniel’s first year as a speaker was a little lean (收益差的) financially, he was getting paid more as a speaker than as a teacher since the second year. When his leave of absence was over, his old employer called him in for a new position. Danniel agreed to an interview but then later called to cancel it. I thought he was nuts! I said, “Danniel, you know speaking is not a secure profession. It’s good to have something to fall back on!” And he said something that changed my life. He said, “Cathleen, when you have something to fall back on, you fall back!” It rang so true! I saw immediately and with a shock that the teaching job that I thought provided a financial cushion in fact was holding me back from pursuing my dreams and interests. A few months later, I quitted my job, packed up my car, kissed my grown kids and friends goodbye and moved to a different part of the country to try my luck as a speaker. It was a little unnerving (令人紧张的) to give up my teaching job but I’d been wanting to do it for a long time and finally it was sink or swim time! Well, at first I knew nothing about business and had so much to learn about the speaking profession. I did everything the hard way and learned a lot gradually. Finally I succeeded in doing what I love. Because I was happier, my health immediately improved along with my outlook on life. 4. Why did the author want to change her job? A. She needed a steady job. B. She was bad at teaching adults. C. She wanted to earn more money. D. She was bored with her teaching job. 5. What does the underlined part “he was nuts” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. He was crazy. B. He was smart. C. He was unreliable. D. He was courageous. 6. What can we infer from Danniel’s words? A. All roads lead to Rome. B. By falling we learn to go safely. C. All things are difficult before they are easy. D. You can’t make egg rolls without breaking eggs. 7. What is the author’s attitude towards her new job? A. Casual. B. Satisfied. C. Doubtful. D. Disappointed. C Kiir created the Akeer Foundation, a development-focused nonprofit working to build a school in his hometown village of Akeer Adoor, South Sudan. In Akeer Adoor, the nearest school was a two-hour walk each way, and most children never made the journey. Kiir’s aunt stepped in to help by taking him to attend school in Uganda. After living there for six years, he found the experience reshaped how he understood education. After getting into Stanford, Kiir could not just focus on himself. He didn’t want the kids to go through the same things he went through. Together with Deng and Hasnah, Kiir tried to find a solution. They started with smaller ideas like buying bicycles so kids could travel further to school. But the more they talked, the more they felt driven to aim higher. They decided they wanted to build a school. Soon after the idea was formed, the foundation worked to connect with Akeer Adoor directly. In June of 2025, Aluetmiir Kiir, Kuot Kiir’s brother, traveled to the village to meet with families and the village chief to listen and learn what people wanted and needed. That same month, the village chief granted (准允) a piece of land to build the school on. It was a major step that showed the project was really happening. Kiir’s goals for the Akeer Foundation are big, but he talks about them in a simple way. He wants kids to have chances he didn’t have. “I’m hoping 15 years from now there will be at least one of them at Stanford,” Kiir said. 8. Why did Kiir create the Akeer Foundation? A. To build hospitals for poor villages. B. To provide schooling in his hometown. C. To offer nonprofits technology support. D. To give food to children in South Sudan. 9. In what way did Kiir’s aunt influence him? A. By helping him receive education. B. By supporting him in his business. C. By telling him the value of partnership. D. By teaching him that actions matter most. 10. What was a big step for the Akeer Foundation according to paragraph 4? A. Attracting volunteers. B. Adding new members. C. Connecting with locals. D. Getting the school land. 11. Which of the following can best describe Kiir? A. Hardworking and smart. B. Generous and honest. C. Confident and friendly. D. Kind and practical. D Sometimes, rooms where famous writers worked can be places of special magic. Other times, they can just be rooms. Katie da Cunha Lewin is the author of the new book, The Writer’s Room: The Hidden Worlds That Shape the Books We Love, which explores the appeal of these rooms. Lewin is a big Virginia Woolf fan, and the first place Lewin visited while working on the book was Woolf’s summer home in Sussex, England. On the way there, she dreamed of seeing Woolf’s desk, following her steps, and imagining how she worked. It turned out to be a bit of a letdown for Lewin — everything interesting was behind glass, she said. She just took a picture of the room, hoping to feel some of its magic. To be honest, writing is a little boring. Unlike a band playing music or a painter working, a writer at a desk doesn’t look very exciting. And yet, the myth (神话) of the writer’s room continues to draw us. You can head to Massachusetts to see where Louisa May Alcott wrote Little Women. Or go down to Florida to visit the home of Zora Neale Hurston. Or book a stay at the Scott & Zelda Fitzgerald Museum in Alabama, where the famous couple lived for a time. But what exactly is the draw? Lewin pointed out that part of it comes from fans’ curiosity. This also made her realize that there is a central mystery about writing, as if it is a magic thing that just happens rather than actual labor. The book is a debunking (揭穿) of the myths we’re presented with about writers in their rooms. Lewin writes about different kinds of writers: those who couldn’t stay in an office for hours and had to find small moments to write, those who show off their rooms to seem more writerly, those whose homes are kept, and those whose rooms have been lost to time. The main point of the book is that there is no magic formula (方法) for writing. No perfect to-do list or special office chair will make you a writer. You just have to write. 12. Why did Lewin go to Woolf’s summer home in Sussex? A. To attend a book club meeting. B. To find a quiet place to write. C. To prepare for her new book. D. To visit some famous writers. 13. How was Lewin’s trip to Woolf’s summer home? A. It was hopeful. B. It was interesting. C. It was dangerous. D. It was regrettable. 14. What do the examples of writers in paragraph 4 show? A. The writer’s room is hard to find. B. The writer’s room is very appealing. C. Writers care a lot about their writing rooms. D. Writers have writing rooms with similar styles. 15. What can we say about writing from the last paragraph? A. It needs time and practice. B. It has many rules to follow. C. It is best done with a to-do list. D. It is a way to show artistic taste.

I had planned to fly to Vienna and take a bus to Prague for a conference. Due to a big storm, my flight had been delayed by an hour and a half. I touched down in Vienna just 30 minutes before the departure of the last bus to Prague. The moment I got off the plane, I ran like crazy through the airport building and jumped into the first taxi on the rank without a second thought. That was when I met Gunter. I told him where I was going, but he said he hadn't heard of the bus station. I thought my pronunciation was the problem, so I explained again more slowly, but he still looked confused. When I was about to give up, Gunter fished out his little phone and rang up a friend. After a heated discussion that lasted for what seemed like a century, Gunter put his phone down and started the car. Finally, with just two minutes to spare we rolled into the bus station. Thankfully, there was a long queue (队列) still waiting to board the bus. Gunter parked the taxi behind the bus, turned around, and looked at me with a big smile on his face. "We made it," he said. Just then I realised that I had zero cash in my wallet. I flashed him an apologetic smile as I pulled out my Portuguese bankcard. He tried it several times, but the card machine just did not play along. A feeling of helplessness washed over me as I saw the bus queue thinning out. At this moment, Gunter pointed towards the waiting hall of the bus station. There, at the entrance, was a cash machine. I jumped out of the car, made a mad run for the machine, and popped my card in, only to read the message: "Out of order. Sorry." 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 I ran back to Gunter and told him the bad news. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Four days later, when I was back in Vienna, I called Gunter as promised. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 邵东创新高级中学2027届毕业班第二次月考 英语试题 听力理解 听下面5段录音，选出最佳选项。 1.

It was a truly eye-opening experience that showed me how technology is revolutionizing the world of sports. We got hands-on experience with AI-powered fitness devices that analyzed our basketball shots in real time and gave personalized tips to improve our accuracy. We also attended an engaging lecture on how AI helps professional athletes optimize their training and avoid career-threatening injuries. For me, this activity completely transformed my perception of artificial intelligence. I used to associate AI with science fiction, but now I see it as a practical tool that can enhance every aspect of our daily lives, even something as simple as playing sports. Yours, Li Hua 作文2 【47题答案】 【答案】参考范文 Para 1 I ran back to Gunter and told him the bad news. He looked at me in disbelief, asking me what to do. Flashing him another apologetic smile, I begged him for a delayed payment. “If I miss this last bus to Prague, I’ll be late for the conference which is so important that I can’t afford to miss it!” I explained. “May I have your phone number? I will call you and return the money I owe you. I promise I will keep my word or you keep my watch!” I added, handing him my watch as well as my business card. Gunter accepted my business card but rejected my watch. He wrote down his phone number and gave it to me. “Just keep your promise, Sir.” A feeling of gratitude washed over me as I heard his words. Giving him a firm handshake, I jumped out of the car, made a mad run for the bus, and jumped onto it just before its departure. Para 2 Four days later, when I was back in Vienna, I called Gunter as promised. He picked me up at the bus station where he had dropped me off four days before. Beaming a warm smile at him, I gave him a big hug the moment I saw him. We chatted happily on the way to the airport. I told him that thanks to his generosity and timely help, everything had gone smoothly. When he stopped his taxi outside the airport, I paid him for the “double car ride”, back and forth from the airport to the bus station, together with a generous tip that he turned down. I also gave him an attractive souvenir I had bought at Prague, which he accepted with delight. We became good friends and kept in touch with each other regularly. I felt blessed to have such a warm-hearted friend like Gunter. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
