Nowadays,with the rapid development of technology,a number of students turn to AI to polish up their English compositions.From my point of view,AI brings considerable benefits to our English writing For one thing,AI can efficiently spot grammar mistakes and polish awkward expressions, helping us learn more authentic ways of writing.For another,it provides instant feedback for our self-study.With its help,we can ease our fear of English writing and gradually build up our confidence. To sum up,we should embrace new technology wisely.Properly used,AI will serve as a powerful helper in our writing practice. 【范文二】 Should we use AI to polish up our compositions? With the rapid development of technology,numerous students depend on AI to polish up their English compositions.From my individual perspective,the drawbacks outweigh its benefits. To begin with,the high efficiency of AI robs us of the valuable chance to reflect on our writings and weakens our willingness to revise them independently,leading to over-reliance in the 第 long term.In addition,writing is meant to convey our true inner feelings.Compositions polished by aI may sound fancy in language but lack our genuine thoughts Therefore,we ought to improve our compositions through continuous practice rather than turn to AI for assistance. 听力原文 Text 1 W:You should have come earlier to see the appealing beginning of the live music festival in this park.

Text 10 W:Good morning,everyone.Today I'd like to talk about a common problem among teenagers- being addicted to social media.A recent survey shows that 72%of high school students use social media for over 2 hours every day,with most starting at the age of 13 or 14.On one hand, social media helps students stay connected with friends,share interesting stories,and even access free educational resources,like online courses and study tips.On the other hand,it brings many problems.Parents and teachers have noticed that students who spend too much time on social media often have trouble focusing in class.They may also feel upset after comparing their daily lives with the"perfect"'posts online,which makes them lose confidence What's worse,some students get disturbed by messages during study time,leading to a drop in grades.Experts suggest that instead of banning social media completely,schools should teach students to manage their screen time wisely.For example,setting a fixed time for checking social media after finishing homework,or choosing educational accounts to follow instead of those with meaningless content.Remember,social media is a tool.It can either help us or harm us,depending on how we use it. 2页共2页2026-2027学年上学期 东北师大附中 (英语)科试卷 高二年级期中考试 注意事项： 1.答题前，考生须将自己的姓名、班级、考场/座位号填写在答题卡指定位置上，并粘贴条 形码。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题日的答案标号涂黑。 如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其它答案标号。 3.回答非选择题时，请使用0.5毫米黑色字迹签字笔将答案写在答题卡各题目的答题区域 内，超出答题区域或在草稿纸、本试题卷上书写的答案无效。 4.保持卡面清洁，不要折叠、不要弄皱、弄破，不准使用涂改液、修正带、刮纸刀。 第I卷选择题（满分75分） 第一部分听力(1-20小题)在笔试结束前20分钟进行。 第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30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 The Best Writing Contests for High School Students Scholastic Art and Writing Awards ●Award Amount:$1,000 Deadline:Varies between December and January,depending on your region ●Fee:$l0 for single entry(作品) The Scholastic Art and Writing Awards celebrates art by students in grades seven through twelve (age 13 or older)on a regional and national scale.Categories include science-fiction and fantasy writing,humor,critical essays,and dramatic scripts Ocean Awareness Contest ●Award Amount:$1,500 Deadline:June 13,2026 ●Fee:None The Ocean Awareness Contest asks students to consider the future of sea animals that are under threat from climate change.Submissions(提交作品)are accepted in a variety of art forms.

C.Adam,a high school freshman who excels at sports. D.Mary,a 16-year-old American girl who loves writing B Isabella Ducrot,an Italian artist bom in 1931,is becoming internationally famous for her art only recently,even though she didn't start creating it until she was in her fifties. Ducrot creates her art by standing and sweeping loose stroke of ink or paint onto paper or fabric ()sometimes using a brush attached to a stick.She often adds pieces of other papers or fabrics to create pictures.Her works,typically made in series,feature simple landscapes,and repeating patterns like ovals (and squares.Full of life,color,and a sense of freedom,her art 1项共6页 feels so fresh and energetic that a museum in France has called her,in a surprising way,"a young artist with a young career." Ducrot's art is deeply rooted in her life experiences.For years,she and her late husband ran a luxury travel business,journeying from India to Afghanistan and gathering a unique collection of textiles ()These experiences and materials now provide both the physical and conceptual foundation for her work.She brings importance to humble clothes-the kind "used to protect, wrap,wash and care for the body"-by incorporating (them into her art,making us reconsider the boundaries between fine art and the art of every day life. Her late success strongly goes against common ideas about older people,especially older women.As one expert points out,we often give older women "the unclear,and often fading, quality of wisdom,"meaning their creative and personal growth has stopped.Ducrot's clearly emotional work shows this is not true."I think life,for women,begins at sixty,"she says. “Because then we begin to be free.” In her Roman palazzo,Isabella Ducrot continues her daily work,watching as the figures in her"Tenderness"series slowly emerge (from the cloth.Just like her art,her own life is a masterpiece that is still unfolding.With each brushstroke she paints and piece of fabric she adds, she shows us a simple truth:even in life's later years,creativity can not only survive but blossom with unexpected freedom and power. 24.What can we know about Ducrot's art? A.It shows complex historical scenes. B.It creates a sense of calm and peacefulness. C.It is created using digital tools and software. D.It features repetitive patterns and landscape paintings. 25.What can be inferred from paragraph 3? A.She finds unique textiles unworthy. B.She keeps art separate from daily life. C.Her art is mainly based on imagination. D.Her travels provide artistic inspiration. 26.Which of the following can best describe Ducrot? A.Creative and free. B.Traditional and reserved. C.Determined and imaginative. D.Energetic and generous. 27.What message does Ducrot's story convey? A.Actions speak louder than words. B.Where there's a will,there is a way. 英语试题第 C.It's never too late to start a new chapter in life. D.A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. C Gestures are older than spoken language and they complement our words.Imagine life without being able to point.We do it all the time-in a pastry shop,you point to signal that you want the croissant (without the burnt edges,or to indicate to your host at a dinner party how much wine you want.Think about the forefinger raised over your thumb.A larger gap indicates more wine. Some gestures have a rich history and have lasted a long time.But in a sign of the times,for younger people,especially Generation Z,some of our most well-known hand gestures have changed.Common hand signals,such as writing in the air to get the bill in a restaurant,or tapping on the wrist to ask the time,are at risk of dying out.Contactless payment systems and electronic billing systems have made chequebooks unnecessary,and many young people increasingly use their mobile phones,rather than a watch,to tell the time. Take the UK as an example.Research shows that all young people here between the ages of 16 and 24 own a smartphone.Perhaps unsurprisingly,the hand signal for the"old-fashioned" landline phone is becoming unusual,since gestures that are specific to particular devices are likely to only be recognised by those who are familiar with such devices.In an online video,New Yorker Daniel Alvarado commented,"This is how you know you're getting old."He showed that when his children were asked to gesture"phone me",instead of holding a hand to their ear with their little finger and thumb stretched,each child held a flat palm to the side of their face to indicate a mobile phone. Our technological innovations will influence what remains and what dies in terms of our most common hand gestures.Like a flowing river,into which no one can step twice,history moves on,too.And like our language,our gestures change too,which is a reflection of the signs of our times. 28.What does the author imply by introducing daily communication with gestures in paragraph one? A.The helpful role of gestures. B.The limitation of language. C.The cultural origins of gestures. D.The significance of proper behaviour. 29.What does the video of Daniel Alvarado mainly show? A.Children are more open to new things. B.Some gestures are difficult to remember. C.Some gestures are generationally specific. 2项共6页 D.Children are overdependent on smartphones. 30.What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A.Technological progress has no end. B.The variation of gestures is unavoidable. C.Older gestures carry more cultural significance. D.Human development is full of ups and downs. 31.What is a suitable title for the text? A.Technology Is Changing Our Gestures B.Hand Gestures Are Drawing New Users C.Gestures Reflect the Characteristics of Society D.Technology Reshapes Our Communication Methods D Anxious about returning to work after a career break?You post about your troubles online and two strangers reply.Stranger 1:"I understand your anxiety;your courage matters."Stranger 2: "I've struggled with the same problem.Just jump in!"Studies show most find Stranger 1 more empathetic(有同理心)一but it's often a chatbot.Surprised? Research reveals chatbots frequently outperform humans in empathy.A 2023 study found 80%of patients preferred chatbots'response to doctors'advice.Similarly,a 2024 experiment showed even when humans were paid to create thoughtful replies,they still fell short of ChatGPT's sympathy. The secret to the chatbots'success lies in mistakes humans make.When humans see someone in pain,we often share personal stories (I've struggled too)or rush to give advice(Do this!"). While well-meaning,rushing to share opinions can minimize someone's pain,and shifting the focus to ourselves weakens hope to be heard.Chatbots,however,avoid these errors.Without personal experiences or urgency to solve problems,they focus entirely on the speaker.In a 2024 study,Microsoft's Bing Chat scored higher than humans by using a three-step method:explaining people's struggles,acknowledging and justifying how they might feel,and asking follow-up questions. Humans can also adopt similar strategies like "looping for understanding"-repeating others words in their own terms and checking correctness(Do I have that right?").Chatbots are natural loopers,and when humans learn it,they better understand others'emotions and make them feel heard.These skills extend beyond strengthening family and friend bonds:dozens of studies show managers and employers using such methods tend to have more loyal,effective,and productive employees. 英语试题第 Despite AI's impressive listening skills,it has limits.Chatbots repeat formulaic(公式化的) responses (I hear you)that feel robotic over time.They can't feel or truly care for us,and studies show most human beings still want to engage with other humans.Some of the bugs of human connection are also,in fact,features.Chatbots can't roll their eyes or leave our texts unanswered.But the fact that we often must earn human empathy,and that it comes from limited beings who sacrifice (to be there for us,is part of its beauty. 32.Why does the author quote the two strangers'replies? A.To criticize human's communication. B.To introduce the topic of the article. C.To suggest how to overcome anxiety D.To compare two ways of giving advice. 33.What does the underlined phrase"fell short of'mean in paragraph 2? A.Paid little attention to. B.Failed to match. C.Did better than. D.Were in need of. 34.What can humans learn from chatbots'empathy strategies? A.To provide direct solutions. B.To stress shared stories. C.To correct speakers'mistakes. D.To avoid self-centered responses. 35.What does the author want to say in the last paragraph? A.AI is an impressive listener. B.Human empathy is valuable. C.AI responds to human's pain calmly. D.There are problems with human interaction. 第二节七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。 Nowadays,parents tend to help their kids stay away from boredom by putting children in tutoring classes or in front of screens.Some might see it as a negative emotion that they don't want their children to experience.36 Boredom is a signal that a change is needed.Whether it is a change in scenery,activity,or company,boredom encourages children to seek something different.37 Psychologists have found that the experience of boredom can lead to discovering new goals,trying new activities and making new friends. 38 A reasonable break time leaves room to ask the big questions in life and find meaning.With their mind wandering and reviewing personal experiences,children have the chance to think independently and explore their inner world. Beyond encouraging reflection,boredom teaches children how to manage themselves as 页共6页 well.Learning to manage boredom and other negative emotions is an important life skill. 39 When children manage their own time,it can help them develop executive (function,which includes the ability to set goals and make plans. Parents can support this process by giving children more opportunities to handle boredom on their own.40 Then start with small doses of boredom and work up to longer stretches of unstructured time:getting kids outside,suggesting a new game or recipe,or simply resting.As children get used to occasional boredom,it will take them longer to become bored in the future.People find life less boring once they regularly experience boredom. So the next time a kid complains,"I'm bored!"don't feel guilty or depressed.Let this natural emotional state do wonders. A.Self-management skills are crucial for children's growth B.Help children understand that boredom is a natural experience C.Being alone can be surprisingly beneficial for their development D.Boredom also opens up valuable opportunities for deep thinking. E.Contrary to common belief,boredom offers children many benefits. F.Some may argue that boredom contributes to a peaceful environment. G.It serves as a gentle push for children to go beyond their comfort zone. 第三部分完形填空（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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选 项。 Every day on my way to college,I meet the same woman.Her courage and toughness quietly 41 me.She works nights at a hospital,42 attending to patients.After her long hours, she walks nearly 12 kilometers to reach home because she cannot 43 daily transportation.
