The person I respect and admire most is my English teacher Ms. Li, whose patience and passion are deeply admired by all of us. What sets her apart is her positive attitude and determination. During one semester when we struggled with writing, she organized extra after-school lessons, guiding us in overcoming difficulties step by step. Her creative teaching methods, such as integrating English songs and movies into classes, made learning enjoyable and effective. Ms. Li’s commitment has had a huge influence on me, from whom I have learned I should try my best to overcome any difficulty in life. That’s all. Thank you . 第二节（满分25分） Paragraph 1: Inspired by his own life story, David decided to do something for that boy. He went to the woman, who immediately recognized him because she bad read his books and seen his pictures. David started to chat with her. He told her that what she had said to her boy was not appropriate. Then he told about the encouragement he once got from Mrs. Brown. In the end, he said, “I couldn’t have become a writer if I had believed I was good at nothing.” Paragraph 2: The mother was ashamed when she heard that. She realized that she shouldn’t have called her son stupid , which would make him lose confidence in himself. So she said, “Thank you for your advice. I’ll never say such things to him again. Instead, I’ll find out what he’s good at and encourage him.” The woman then left with the boy. Looking at the back of the boy, David felt relieved, hoping his action could make some difference to the boy. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $铜川市一中2026-2027学年第一学期高二(2028届)第一次月考 英语·答题卡 名： 缺考 标记 贴条形码区 准考证号 口 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 注意事项 2 2 2 2 2 2 1.答题前，考生先将自己的姓名、准考证号码填写清楚，并 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 认真检查监考员所粘贴的条形码。 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 2.选择题必须使用2B铅笔填涂；非选择题必须用0.5mm 黑色字迹的签字笔填写，字体工整。 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 U 3.请按题号顺序在各题的答题区内作答，超出答题区域范围 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 的答案无效，在草纸、试卷上作答无效。 7 > 7 7 7 7 7 4.保持卡面清洁，不要折叠、不要弄破、弄皱，不准使用涂 8 8 8 8 8 6 8 8 8 8 改液、刮纸刀。 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 5.正确填涂 选择题 (请用2B铅笔填涂) 1【AJIBI[C1 6 [A][B]IC] 11 [A]IB]ICI 16 [A][B]IC] 2【AJIB1[CI 7 [AJIB]ICI 12【A1[BJICI 17【AJIBIIC1 3 [A][B]IC] 8 IAJIB]IC] 13 [A][BI[CI 18【AJ[BIIC] 4[A][B1[CJ 9【A1[B]ICJ 14【A][B1[C1 19 [AJIBJIC] 5 [A]IB][CI 10[A1[B1IC】 15 [A]IB]ICI 20[A1[B1IC1 21【AJ[BI[CIID] 26【A1IBI[CIID1 31【AJIB1[CIID] 36 [AJ[BIIC][D]IE]IF][G] 22【A1[B1IC1IDJ 27【A1 IBIIC]ID1 32【A1IB1 ICJID] 37 [A][BIIC][D][E][F][G] 23 [A][B][CJID] 28【A1IB1IC]IDJ 33【AJ[B][C1ID] 38 [AJ[BIIC]IDIIE]IF]IG] 24【A1IB1IC1IDJ 29【A]IB1IC]ID1 34【AJ[B1IC1IDJ 39 [AJ[BJIC]ID]IEJ[F]IG] 25【A1IB]IC1ID1 30 [AJ[BIICI[DI 35 [AI[B]ICIID] 40 [A][B][C][D][EJ[F][G] 41【A1[B]IC]ID] 46【A1IB1 Ic]ID1 51 [A][B][C][D] 42【A1[B]LC]ID] 47 [AJIBIICIID] 52【A1IB][C1ID1 43【A1[B][C][D] 48【A]IBJICJID] 53 [A]IB]IC]ID] 44【A1IB1[C1【D] 49【A1 IB]IC1IDI 54 [AJIB]ICIID] 45【A]IB]IC1IDI 50【AJIBIICIID] 55 [A][B]IC][D] 非选择题（请在各试题的答题区内作答） 第三部分语言运用（共二节，满分30分） 第二节（共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分） 56. 57. 58. 59. 60. 62 63 64. 65 非选择题（请在各试题的答题区内作答） 第四部分写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 第二节（满分25分） Inspired by his own life story,David decided to do something for that boy.

Here’s a look at who has won the prize and for what. Physiology or Medicine Swedish geneticist Svante Peabo won the first Nobel of the year, for starting the field of ancient DNA studies. He is well-known for extracting, sequencing, and analyzing ancient DNA from Neanderthal bones. Physics Alain Aspect, John F. Clauser and Anton Zeilinger’s work in quantum (量子) technology landed them the second Nobel Prize announced in 2022. Although Aspect is from France, Clauser from the U.S, and Zeilinger from Austria, the three separately performed “groundbreaking experiments” as one team. “Their results have cleared the way for new technology,” the committee stated. Chemistry The Nobel Prize for chemistry went to another trio, Carolyn R. Bertozzi from the U.S., Morten Meldal from Denmark and K. Barry Sharpless from the U.S. “for the development of click chemistry and biorthogonal chemistry,” the committee stated. Dr. Bertozzi is the eighth woman chemist to be awarded the prize, while Dr. Sharpless is the fifth scientist to be awarded two Nobel Prizes. Economics The Prize in Economic Sciences was awarded to three American economists, Ben S. Bernanke, Douglas W. Diamond and Philip H. Dybvig “for research on banks and financial crises,” the Nobel Prize committee announced on Monday. By studying the history of American economics, particularly the Great Depression of the 1930s, they improved how we understand the role of banks during times of hardship and the bank’s impact on societal functions 21. What prize is related to the research with bones? A. Physiology. B. Chemistry. C. Physics. D. Economics. 22. For what study did Ben S. Bernanke, Douglas W. Diamond and Philip H. Dybvig win the prize? A. About societal functions. B. About the history of America. C. About banks and financial crises. D. About the Great Depression of the 1930s. 23. What do the prizes for physics, chemistry and economics have in common? A. Their winners are from different countries. B. They have three winners. C. They improve new technology. D. They help people understand hardship. B In high school I was very shy, content to hang around with my small group of friends and concentrate on my courses. I was quickly regarded as a “brain”. I did so well that by the end of the senior year I had perfect grades and enough credits to give up an entire quarter of coursework. But in early June of the senior year, the principal called me into his office. He asked me to give a speech at graduation. I gaped (目瞪口呆地凝视) at him, my heart thumping. This was the reward for my hard work? I mumbled something and fled the office, blaming myself for staying away from physics, a subject sure to have ruined my perfect record. I finally agreed to a compromise. I would share the honor with five other students. And my friend Judy would then give her own, full-length speech. Graduation day soon arrived. I’d been practicing my speech for days, and I had it memorized. The first half hour of the ceremony passed in a blur, and then my moment came. My name was announced. I managed to reach the podium (讲台) without falling down. I faced my classmates. My voice trembled a little, but mostly it was clear and strong. But within seconds, I was done and headed back to my seat. I accomplished something I’d never dreamed of — I spoke in front of hundreds of people. Although I didn’t realize it at the time, the successful completion of that speech gave me the confidence to participate in class at college, to give verbal reports, and to eventually break free from my shyness. I never would have chosen to give a speech at graduation ever. But I’m glad I did. I no longer hesitate when I’m faced with the prospect of doing something I dread. I know it may very well turn out to be one of my shining moments. 24. Why was the writer called a “brain”? A. She was a bookworm all the time. B. She was the head of her small group. C. She did a good job in her studies. D. She did more coursework for good grades. 25. What can we infer from the second paragraph? A. She ruined her health because of studying hard. B. She got the reward beyond expectation. C. She was grateful for giving a speech. D. She wasn’t good at physics at school. 26. How did the author feel at the beginning of the graduation speech? A. Scared. B. Moved. C. Excited. D. Embarrassed. 27. What did the speech bring to the author at last? A. She had nothing to fear in life. B. She got rid of her sense of shyness. C. She won enough college credits. D. She desired to become a speaker. C It’s a race against time, as generations of cultural heritage conservators at the Dunhuang Academy make a great effort to protect the artistic charm of the Mogao Caves, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, despite erosion (侵蚀) by sand and wind. The team is dedicated to protecting the 45,000 square meters of murals (壁画) and more than 2,400 painted sculptures of the 735 caves of the site, the construction of which spans about a thousand years, from the 4th century to the 14th century. The cultural relics are the product of the cultural exchanges that took place over centuries on the ancient Silk Road. “Our work, repairing murals and painted sculptures, is to better preserve the caves, which promotes the great Dunhuang spirit of inclusiveness to the world and inspires modern people,” says Su Bomin, director of the Dunhuang Academy. Commonly seen “diseases” affecting the murals include cracking and flaking, as well as erosion that is caused by changes in temperature and humidity of the caves, and the deposition of salts. To restore a mural requires an all-rounder. Restorers should know painting, master the skills of a mason and have some knowledge of chemistry and physics, to be able to recognize the problems and their corresponding causes and deliver a solution. They must also select proper materials and tools, and conduct experiments, before formally carrying out the restoration and evaluating the effect afterward. The restoration should respect the original work and aim to maintain the status quo of the murals rather than repainting them. When the restorers find some parts of murals missing or fading away, they never repaint them to create a “perfect” appearance in restoration. “Cultural relics are witnesses of history,” explains Su. “When you pursue the so-called intact (完好无损的) look for artistic reasons, you will lose their key meaning.” Cave conservation is about continuously solving problems. “It needs a long-term research to better preserve the caves, over a much wider time span that goes beyond our lifetimes,” Su says. But at least, they can keep the current look of the murals for as long as possible. 28. What is the main purpose of paragraph 2? A. To show the popularity of Dunhuang murals. B. To explain the history of the ancient Silk Road. C. To stress the significance of the restoration work. D. To present the ways of protecting cultural heritage. 29. Which of the following best describes the restoration work? A. Creative. B. Well-paid. C. Interesting. D. Demanding. 30. What should restoring murals focus on according to paragraph 4? A. Spotting the faded murals in time. B. Fixing the missing parts of murals. C. Maintaining the current look of murals. D. Repainting to perfect the appearance of murals. 31. Which can be the best title for the text? A. The Artistic Charm of Mural Paintings B. The Mural Restoration in the Mogao Caves C. The Successful Experiment on Cave Conservation D. The Role of the Dunhuang Spirit in Chinese Culture D There was a lot of news related to artificial intelligence, or AI, and machine learning. Among the stories were two dealing with direct competitions between humans and machines. In one competition, machines that used AI performed better than human beings in a high-level reading test. Two natural language processing tools beat human in the experiment. One of the tools was built by the American technology company Microsoft. The other was created by Chinese online seller Alibaba Group. In another competition, a computer took on humans in live, public debates. The event demonstrated how AI-powered computers are increasingly being developed to think and sound like humans. The organizer of the debates, US technology company IBM, announced split results. It said a majority of those watching said they felt the machine had done more to improve their knowledge of the subject. But, the human got more praise for communicating their ideas. This year, we also explored the many ways AI and machine learning are now being used. For example, some US judges use machine learning systems to help them decide when, and for how long, criminals should be jailed. The system uses computers to examine data from thousands of court cases. One fast-growing area of AI is facial recognition, which is increasingly being used for security purposes. Recently, Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson airport became the first in the US to permit passengers to use facial recognition technology to get on flights. A Chinese company showed an AI system developed to recognize individuals by body shape and walking movements. The system is already being used by Chinese police in Beijing and Shanghai. In addition, machine learning was used during 2018 to predict results of the World Cup soccer competition. The technology also created artwork sold for a large amount of money. And it is being used to help farmers save time and money, while reducing environment-harming chemicals. Other technology systems are being used to follow farm animals and wildlife to collect information on their activities. 32. Why were the two competitions mentioned in the passage? A. To show how much better AI and machine learning are than humans. B. To prove AI and machine learning got more praise for communication. C. To show how powerful AI and machine learning are. D. To prove AI and machine learning have been used in the work of US judges. 33. What are facial and body recognition systems used for in the passage? A. Knowledge learning. B. Safety control. C. Office automation. D. Tracking surveys. 34. What can we infer from this passage? A. AI has been widely used in every person’s daily life. B. Humans can be replaced by AI in future completely. C. More attention is being paid to AI in every part of the world. D. More advanced AI is helping people in more and more areas. 35. Where is the passage probably from? A. A technology report. B. A natural science magazine. C. A science fiction. D. A government document. 第二节（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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Interruptions are one of the worst things to deal with while you are trying to get work done. 36 , there are several ways to handle things.

When David passed them, he heard the woman yell, “How stupid you are! You’re good at nothing.” David stopped and looked at the little boy. The boy said nothing. He just stood there, looking upset. David was reminded of his English teacher Mrs. Brown in the middle school. After he entered the middle school, David lacked self-confidence because he was often made fun of by others. He was often told that he was good at nothing, which David believed. But one day it all changed. One day, in an English writing class, Mrs. Brown asked them to read a novel. They were asked to write a new chapter of the novel after they finished reading the book. A few days later, David handed in his story. He didn’t give it much thought. But the next day to his surprise, the comment “well done” from Mrs. Brown came into view the moment he turned to the page where the story was written. When David read that, he almost burst into tears. He never expected to be praised one day. He suddenly gained some self-confidence. That day after he returned home, he wrote a short story and gave it to Mrs. Brown the next morning. And again he was praised. David became very interested in writing. He often wrote short stories and asked Mrs. Brown to read them and correct them for him. Mrs. Brown always corrected them for him. Mrs. Brown always corrected the mistakes he had made and gave him good advice to improve them. One year later, David joined the school newspaper and became an editor of it. He was no longer that boy who lacked self-confidence. He gained his confidence and was hopeful about his future. He succeeded in entering college and kept writing. Several years after graduating from college, he had his first book published. With some more books coming out, he became famous as a writer in his country. And he owed his success to Mrs. Brown’s encouragement. Without her encouragement, his life might be very different now. 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。 Inspired by his own life story, David decided to do something for that boy. ____________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The mother was ashamed when she heard that ___________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
