Lily had great trouble in reading and understanding difficult texts, which affected her studies and made her lose self-confidence. Determined to support her, Alex decided to find a solution. One day, while carelessly reading Reader’s Digest, Alex chanced upon an article about the shocking power of artificial intelligence (AI) in education. Deeply encouraged by the article, he made up his mind to create an AI-based learning tool that could really help students like Lily. Alex spent months learning programming languages and algorithms (算法). He faced many tough challenges along the way, such as checking and reorganizing codes (代码), which mean programming instructions, and searching for related data, which mean information having something to do with developing such an app. However, he never thought of giving up. Finally, he developed an app called “ReadEase”, which uses AI to study texts and provide simplified explanations and clear audio-readings. It can also track the user’s progress and offer personalized learning plans. When Alex introduced “ReadEase” to Lily, she was doubtful at first. “But to my surprise, after using it for a few weeks, I noticed a great improvement in my reading skills. I can finally understand what I’m reading,” Lily said excitedly. The success of “ReadEase” didn’t stop there. Alex shared his invention with his school’s teachers, who were deeply impressed by its huge ability. They started using the app in their classes to help students with learning difficulties. Now, Alex is working on improving “ReadEase” and hopes to make it available to more students around the world. “I want to use technology to make a positive effect on people’s lives,” he said. 24. Why did Alex decide to create “ReadEase”? A. To win a science competition. B. To help his close friend. C. To finish a school project. D. To show his knowledge about AI. 25. What challenge did Alex meet while creating the app? A. Being short of time and money. B. Finding similar examples to follow. C. Coding programming instructions properly. D. Finding out suitable programming languages. 26. What can we infer from Lily’s words? A. She is not used to the app. B. She still has difficulty reading. C. The app is of great help to her. D. The app doesn’t work well. 27. Which of the following best describes Alex according to the text? A. Creative and determined. B. Outgoing and careless. C. Humorous and honest. D. Calm and responsible. C The eight-hour sleep rule has been widely accepted as a golden standard for healthy sleep since 1917. It originated from a social slogan advocating equal time for work, entertainment and rest, rather than strict scientific experiments. Modern research has overturned this long-held public belief. It is universally acknowledged that insufficient sleep damages physical and mental health. Yet studies confirm that excessive sleep is also harmful, forming a U-shaped relationship between sleep duration and health. Earlier studies in 2015 put forward general sleep ranges for different age groups, but failed to consider individual differences. A groundbreaking study published in Nature updated sleep standards by introducing biological clock data. Based on half a million adult samples, the research found gender differences in ideal sleep length. Women function best with 6.5 to 7.8 hours of sleep per night, while men’s ideal range is 6.4 to 7.7 hours. Slight individual differences also exist due to physical conditions. Experts remind the public not to blindly stick to fixed sleep hours. Sleep quality, continuity and regularity matter more than fixed duration. Ironically, anxiety about failing to meet the eight-hour standard itself causes insomnia. Surveys show most people lose sleep over unnecessary worry about sleep length. The true standard of healthy sleep is waking up refreshed and energetic. Instead of mechanically counting hours, people should follow their physical signals and develop personalized sleep habits. 28. Where did the eight-hour sleep standard come from? A. Scientific experiments in 2015. B. Long-term medical observation. C. Biological clock research data. D. A social equality slogan. 29. The underlined word “groundbreaking” in Paragraph 3 means ________. A. traditional B. meaningless C. innovative D. complex 30. What can we infer from Paragraph 4? A. Fixed sleep hours guarantee better sleep quality. B. Worrying about sleep length may cause sleep problems. C. Most people can strictly follow the eight-hour rule. D. Sleep duration is the only standard for healthy sleep. 31. What is the author’s purpose of writing the text? A. To introduce the history of sleep research. B. To advocate personalized healthy sleep habits. C. To prove long sleep is better than short sleep. D. To criticize unscientific medical standards. D We all know fresh is best when it comes to food. However, most produce at the store went through weeks of travel and covered hundreds of miles before reaching the table. While farmer’s markets are a solid choice to reduce the journey, Babylon Micro-Farm (BMF) shortens it even more. BMF is an indoor garden system. It can be set up for a family. Additionally, it could serve a larger audience such as a hospital, restaurant or school. The innovative design requires little effort to achieve a reliable weekly supply of fresh greens. Specifically, it’s a farm that relies on new technology. By connecting through the Cloud, BMF is remotely monitored. Also, there is a convenient app that provides growing data in real time. Because the system is automated, it significantly reduces the amount of water needed to grow plants. Rather than watering rows of soil, the system provides just the right amount to each plant. After harvest, users simply replace the plants with a new pre-seeded pod (容器) to get the next growth cycle started. Moreover, having a system in the same building where it’s eaten means zero emissions (排放) from transporting plants from soil to salad. In addition, there’s no need for pesticides and other chemicals that pollute traditional farms and the surrounding environment. BMF employees live out sustainability in their everyday lives. About half of them walk or bike to work. Inside the office, they encourage recycling and waste reduction by limiting garbage cans and avoiding single-use plastic. “We are passionate about reducing waste, carbon and chemicals in our environment,” said a BMF employee. 32. What can be learned about BMF from paragraph 1? A. It guarantees the variety of food. B. It requires day-to-day care. C. It cuts the farm-to-table distance. D. It relies on farmer’s markets. 33. What information does the convenient app offer? A. Real-time weather changes. B. Current condition of the plants. C. Chemical pollutants in the soil. D. Availability of pre-seeded pods. 34. What can be concluded about BMF employees? A. They have a great passion for sports. B. They are devoted to community service. C. They are fond of sharing daily experiences. D. They have a strong environmental awareness. 35. What does the text mainly talk about? A. BMF’s major strengths. B. BMF’s general management. C. BMF’s global influence. D. BMF’s technical standards. 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。 Many students hold a fixed mindset about themselves. They believe talents and interests are born unchangeable. Once they fail an exam or struggle with new skills, they quickly decide “I am not good at this”. ____36____ Developing a growth mindset is the key to lifelong personal progress. ____37____ People with fixed mindsets fear challenges, because failure will prove they lack natural gifts. On the contrary, those with growth mindsets regard challenges as chances to improve themselves. They never fear temporary setbacks. Small daily changes can build your growth mindset step by step. First, change your inner self-talk. Replace “I can’t do it” with “I can’t do it yet”. ____38____ Second, stop avoiding difficult tasks. Pushing yourself out of comfort zones slowly rewires your brain to accept challenges. ____39____ Every time you make progress, no matter how tiny, write it down. Recording small wins reminds you that your efforts truly work. Gradually, you will no longer be trapped by self-doubt. All in all, mindset shapes your whole growth path. ____40____ It will help you overcome difficulties and keep moving forward in study and life. A. This slight change gradually shifts your thinking style. B. This negative thinking stops you from making progress. C. What are the main differences between the two mindsets? D. Keeping a progress diary is another practical and useful method. E. You should never compare your progress with classmates. F. Once you form a steady growth mindset, you will benefit greatly. G. Natural talent plays only a small role in personal achievement. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（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。 For most, birthdays mean the joy of spending time with family members and friends, having cakes and receiving gifts.

For a Chinese student, using chopsticks to eat is the most natural thing. But here, every time I ate in the cafeteria and skilfully picked up food with chopsticks, the foreign classmates around me always cast curious and slightly confused looks, and from time to time, there were whispers: “How do they do that?” At first, I would smile and briefly explain how to use chopsticks to them. But as the number of times increased, the sense of strangeness brought about by cultural differences gradually made me feel uncomfortable. Even for a moment, I hesitated to switch to a knife and fork to eat in order to fit in. During a group dinner, everyone sat around the restaurant. I habitually reached out for chopsticks. Jack, who was in the same group, saw this and exclaimed excitedly, “Hey, let’s see your magic with chopsticks!” As he spoke, he also picked up a pair of chopsticks and clumsily imitated. But before he could pick up anything, the chopsticks slipped from his hand. The other classmates laughed, and my face burned. I lowered my head to eat awkwardly, but my heart was in a mess. I realised that in their eyes, chopsticks were just a novel “performance prop (道具)”, and I, as a “foreigner” using chopsticks, seemed to have become an object of observation. After that, when facing others’ strong desire for chopsticks, I lost the initial enthusiasm to share and just casually smiled. I was afraid of this overwhelming attention, afraid that my cultural habits would become an “outsider label” in the eyes of others. I even began to deliberately reduce the number of times I used chopsticks in public, trying to make myself “fit in” with the local dining style. 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。 Paragraph 1: Until one day, the school held an international cultural festival. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: I started to patiently explain how to hold chopsticks and what they represent. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 太行中学2026-2027学年第一学期第二次月考 高一英语试题 满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What problem does the woman have?

I’d love to share my story with you. So how did I decide to become a travel blogger? I wanted a job that would give me something to look forward to every day and I realized I was spending less and less time doing the things I truly enjoyed, like writing and traveling. So becoming a blogger and writing about my travels made complete sense. Then how did I pick where to go first? Well, unlike my usual picks, like Paris or London, I chose Hainan in China as my first place to go. And it was amazing. Now you might be wondering how I support myself. Some bloggers focus on hiking which requires proper clothing and get paid for recommending clothes in their posts. I thought about teaching English but I didn’t have much time. Luckily, I landed a deal with a company that was interested in the pictures I took on my travels during the journey. I have met people living in tough conditions who never give up and it showed me the importance of keeping up through my blogs. I hope I’ve opened people’s eyes to the beauty of our world. 第二部分 阅读（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。 A Campus Through Your Eyes!

Lily had great trouble in reading and understanding difficult texts, which affected her studies and made her lose self-confidence. Determined to support her, Alex decided to find a solution. One day, while carelessly reading Reader’s Digest, Alex chanced upon an article about the shocking power of artificial intelligence (AI) in education. Deeply encouraged by the article, he made up his mind to create an AI-based learning tool that could really help students like Lily. Alex spent months learning programming languages and algorithms (算法). He faced many tough challenges along the way, such as checking and reorganizing codes (代码), which mean programming instructions, and searching for related data, which mean information having something to do with developing such an app. However, he never thought of giving up. Finally, he developed an app called “ReadEase”, which uses AI to study texts and provide simplified explanations and clear audio-readings. It can also track the user’s progress and offer personalized learning plans. When Alex introduced “ReadEase” to Lily, she was doubtful at first. “But to my surprise, after using it for a few weeks, I noticed a great improvement in my reading skills. I can finally understand what I’m reading,” Lily said excitedly. The success of “ReadEase” didn’t stop there. Alex shared his invention with his school’s teachers, who were deeply impressed by its huge ability. They started using the app in their classes to help students with learning difficulties. Now, Alex is working on improving “ReadEase” and hopes to make it available to more students around the world. “I want to use technology to make a positive effect on people’s lives,” he said. 24. Why did Alex decide to create “ReadEase”? A. To win a science competition. B. To help his close friend. C. To finish a school project. D. To show his knowledge about AI. 25. What challenge did Alex meet while creating the app? A. Being short of time and money. B. Finding similar examples to follow. C. Coding programming instructions properly. D. Finding out suitable programming languages. 26. What can we infer from Lily’s words? A. She is not used to the app. B. She still has difficulty reading. C. The app is of great help to her. D. The app doesn’t work well. 27. Which of the following best describes Alex according to the text? A. Creative and determined. B. Outgoing and careless. C. Humorous and honest. D. Calm and responsible. 【答案】24. B 25. C 26. C 27.

Lily had great trouble in reading and understanding difficult texts, which affected her studies and made her lose self-confidence. Determined to support her, Alex decided to find a solution.(15岁的亚历克斯上初中时，看到他最好的朋友莉莉正受一种相当严重的学习障碍困扰。莉莉在阅读和理解难度较大的文本方面存在很大困难，这不仅影响了她的学习，还让她逐渐失去了自信心。亚历克斯下定决心要支持她，于是决定寻找解决办法。)”以及第二段“Deeply encouraged by the article, he made up his mind to create an AI-based learning tool that could really help students like Lily. (深受这篇文章的鼓舞，他下定决心研发一款基于人工智能（AI）的学习工具，真正帮助像莉莉这样的学生。)”可知，亚历克斯研发“ReadEase”的初衷是帮助自己的好朋友莉莉。故选B项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“He faced many tough challenges along the way, such as checking and reorganizing codes (代码), which mean programming instructions, and searching for related data, which mean information having something to do with developing such an app. (一路走来，他遭遇了诸多棘手的挑战，比如检查并整理代码（即编程指令），以及搜集相关数据 —— 这些数据指的是与开发此类应用程序相关的信息。)”可知，亚历克斯在研发应用时遇到的挑战之一是妥善处理编程指令相关的代码工作。故选C项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段莉莉的话“But to my surprise, after using it for a few weeks, I noticed a great improvement in my reading skills.

It originated from a social slogan advocating equal time for work, entertainment and rest, rather than strict scientific experiments. Modern research has overturned this long-held public belief. It is universally acknowledged that insufficient sleep damages physical and mental health. Yet studies confirm that excessive sleep is also harmful, forming a U-shaped relationship between sleep duration and health. Earlier studies in 2015 put forward general sleep ranges for different age groups, but failed to consider individual differences. A groundbreaking study published in Nature updated sleep standards by introducing biological clock data. Based on half a million adult samples, the research found gender differences in ideal sleep length. Women function best with 6.5 to 7.8 hours of sleep per night, while men’s ideal range is 6.4 to 7.7 hours. Slight individual differences also exist due to physical conditions. Experts remind the public not to blindly stick to fixed sleep hours. Sleep quality, continuity and regularity matter more than fixed duration. Ironically, anxiety about failing to meet the eight-hour standard itself causes insomnia. Surveys show most people lose sleep over unnecessary worry about sleep length. The true standard of healthy sleep is waking up refreshed and energetic. Instead of mechanically counting hours, people should follow their physical signals and develop personalized sleep habits. 28. Where did the eight-hour sleep standard come from? A. Scientific experiments in 2015. B. Long-term medical observation. C. Biological clock research data. D. A social equality slogan. 29. The underlined word “groundbreaking” in Paragraph 3 means ________. A. traditional B. meaningless C. innovative D. complex 30. What can we infer from Paragraph 4? A. Fixed sleep hours guarantee better sleep quality. B. Worrying about sleep length may cause sleep problems. C. Most people can strictly follow the eight-hour rule. D. Sleep duration is the only standard for healthy sleep. 31. What is the author’s purpose of writing the text? A. To introduce the history of sleep research. B. To advocate personalized healthy sleep habits. C. To prove long sleep is better than short sleep. D. To criticize unscientific medical standards. 【答案】28. D 29. C 30. B 31. B 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍八小时睡眠标准的起源，说明过长或过短睡眠均有害，介绍新研究发现并倡导依据自身情况养成个性化睡眠习惯。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The eight-hour sleep rule has been widely accepted as a golden standard for healthy sleep since 1917. It originated from a social slogan advocating equal time for work, entertainment and rest, rather than strict scientific experiments.(自1917年以来，八小时睡眠规则已被广泛接受为健康睡眠的黄金标准。它源自一条倡导工作、娱乐和休息时间均等的社会口号，而非严谨的科学实验)”可知，八小时睡眠标准来自一条社会平等口号。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“A groundbreaking study published in Nature updated sleep standards by introducing biological clock data.(一项发表在《自然》杂志上的groundbreaking研究通过引入生物钟数据更新了睡眠标准)”可知，这项研究更新了以往的睡眠标准，因此是一个创新的研究，故猜测groundbreaking意为“创新的”，与innovative同义。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Ironically, anxiety about failing to meet the eight-hour standard itself causes insomnia. Surveys show most people lose sleep over unnecessary worry about sleep length.(具有讽刺意味的是，担心达不到八小时标准这件事本身就会引发失眠。调查显示，大多数人因为对睡眠时长不必要的担忧而失眠)”可推知，担心睡眠时长可能会引发睡眠问题。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，并根据最后一段中的“The true standard of healthy sleep is waking up refreshed and energetic. Instead of mechanically counting hours, people should follow their physical signals and develop personalized sleep habits.(健康睡眠真正的标准是醒来时神清气爽、精力充沛。人们不应该机械地计算时长，而应该遵从身体信号，养成个性化的睡眠习惯)”可知，作者的写作目的是倡导个性化的健康睡眠习惯。 D We all know fresh is best when it comes to food. However, most produce at the store went through weeks of travel and covered hundreds of miles before reaching the table. While farmer’s markets are a solid choice to reduce the journey, Babylon Micro-Farm (BMF) shortens it even more. BMF is an indoor garden system. It can be set up for a family. Additionally, it could serve a larger audience such as a hospital, restaurant or school. The innovative design requires little effort to achieve a reliable weekly supply of fresh greens. Specifically, it’s a farm that relies on new technology. By connecting through the Cloud, BMF is remotely monitored. Also, there is a convenient app that provides growing data in real time. Because the system is automated, it significantly reduces the amount of water needed to grow plants. Rather than watering rows of soil, the system provides just the right amount to each plant. After harvest, users simply replace the plants with a new pre-seeded pod (容器) to get the next growth cycle started. Moreover, having a system in the same building where it’s eaten means zero emissions (排放) from transporting plants from soil to salad. In addition, there’s no need for pesticides and other chemicals that pollute traditional farms and the surrounding environment. BMF employees live out sustainability in their everyday lives. About half of them walk or bike to work. Inside the office, they encourage recycling and waste reduction by limiting garbage cans and avoiding single-use plastic. “We are passionate about reducing waste, carbon and chemicals in our environment,” said a BMF employee. 32. What can be learned about BMF from paragraph 1? A. It guarantees the variety of food. B. It requires day-to-day care. C. It cuts the farm-to-table distance. D. It relies on farmer’s markets. 33. What information does the convenient app offer? A. Real-time weather changes. B. Current condition of the plants. C. Chemical pollutants in the soil. D. Availability of pre-seeded pods. 34. What can be concluded about BMF employees? A. They have a great passion for sports. B. They are devoted to community service. C. They are fond of sharing daily experiences. D. They have a strong environmental awareness. 35. What does the text mainly talk about? A. BMF’s major strengths. B. BMF’s general management. C. BMF’s global influence. D. BMF’s technical standards. 【答案】32. C 33. B 34. D 35.

For a Chinese student, using chopsticks to eat is the most natural thing. But here, every time I ate in the cafeteria and skilfully picked up food with chopsticks, the foreign classmates around me always cast curious and slightly confused looks, and from time to time, there were whispers: “How do they do that?” At first, I would smile and briefly explain how to use chopsticks to them. But as the number of times increased, the sense of strangeness brought about by cultural differences gradually made me feel uncomfortable. Even for a moment, I hesitated to switch to a knife and fork to eat in order to fit in. During a group dinner, everyone sat around the restaurant. I habitually reached out for chopsticks. Jack, who was in the same group, saw this and exclaimed excitedly, “Hey, let’s see your magic with chopsticks!” As he spoke, he also picked up a pair of chopsticks and clumsily imitated. But before he could pick up anything, the chopsticks slipped from his hand. The other classmates laughed, and my face burned. I lowered my head to eat awkwardly, but my heart was in a mess. I realised that in their eyes, chopsticks were just a novel “performance prop (道具)”, and I, as a “foreigner” using chopsticks, seemed to have become an object of observation. After that, when facing others’ strong desire for chopsticks, I lost the initial enthusiasm to share and just casually smiled. I was afraid of this overwhelming attention, afraid that my cultural habits would become an “outsider label” in the eyes of others. I even began to deliberately reduce the number of times I used chopsticks in public, trying to make myself “fit in” with the local dining style. 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。 Paragraph 1: Until one day, the school held an international cultural festival. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: I started to patiently explain how to hold chopsticks and what they represent. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Paragraph 1: Until one day, the school held an international cultural festival. Inspired by the activity, I hesitated for a long time and finally decided to set up a booth for Chinese chopsticks. I brought my own chopsticks and some snacks that were easy to pick up. Bright handmade signs with Chinese characters were placed on the table. Many students wandered around and soon gathered in front of my booth. Instead of treating chopsticks as a magic trick, they asked sincere questions about this special tableware. Paragraph 2: I started to patiently explain how to hold chopsticks and what they represent. I told them chopsticks stand for harmony and reunion in Chinese culture. Some students tried carefully and cheered when they successfully picked up food. They kept asking me more interesting stories behind chopsticks. Their eyes were full of respect rather than simple curiosity. At that moment, I felt proud of my culture. I no longer wanted to hide my habit, for cultural differences are not barriers but beautiful bridges connecting people. 【解析】 【导语】本文以筷子为线索，讲述作者在加拿大留学时，使用筷子常常被外国同学围观，内心感到不适，一度刻意不在公共场合使用筷子，想要融入当地。直到学校举办国际文化节，作者搭建筷子展台，向同学们介绍筷子文化，重拾文化自信的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段续写描写作者受到文化节启发，犹豫许久后决定设立筷子展台，自备筷子、方便夹取的小点心，桌上摆放带有汉字的手工标牌。不少同学驻足围观，围在展台前，不再把筷子当成新奇魔术，而是真诚地询问这件特别餐具的相关问题。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段续写描写作者耐心讲解筷子的握法以及背后的文化内涵，告诉同学们筷子象征和谐与团圆。一些同学认真尝试，成功夹起食物时十分开心，还不断追问筷子背后更多有趣的故事。大家眼中满是尊重，不再只是单纯好奇。作者内心充满自豪，不再刻意隐藏自己的习惯，懂得文化差异不是阻碍，而是连接人们的美好桥梁。 2. 续写线索：文化节到来——决定设立展台——备好筷子点心、汉字标牌——同学驻足询问——耐心讲解筷子用法与寓意——同学动手尝试、追问故事——收获尊重——心生自豪——感悟文化差异是沟通桥梁 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①设立：set up/establish ②聚集：gather/assemble 情绪类 ①真诚的：sincere/genuine ②自豪的、引以为荣的：proud /honored 【点睛】[高分句型1] Inspired by the activity, I hesitated for a long time and finally decided to set up a booth for Chinese chopsticks.（由过去分词作状语） [高分句型2] I no longer wanted to hide my habit, for cultural differences are not barriers but beautiful bridges connecting people.（由for表示原因、现在分词作后置定语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $第一节听下面五段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。听下面的录音，回答第一小题。They are shouting and dancing excitedly all day long.
