By age 19, I had moved away from our home in Wisconsin to live on my father’s horse farm in Virginia. Jeanne got married at 18 and moved to Chicago. We lived separate lives, and our connection somehow ended.Fast-forward about five years. I was 24 and on a trip with my fiancé(未婚夫)to New York City, a place I had never been. It was overwhelming. I was used to riding my horse to the corner store where everyone knew everyone and everything going on in the quiet little town of Driver, Virginia. We went to Little Italy, the Statue of Liberty, Chinatown, and several Manhattan clubs. I had never seen so many taxicabs in one spot in my life.During a day of sightseeing, we were crossing a very busy street filled with people. Everyone was ina hurry, hustling and bustling. I had laughed at something my fiancé said, and I suddenly heard my name yelled from somewhere behind me: “Cheryl!” I froze in my steps in the middle of the road. Tears sprang up uncontrollably in my eyes. I knew without a doubt that it was my sister Jeanne. I yelled back before even turning to look, “Jeanne ”It was her. “Oh my God!” I screamed, and I began pushing people out of my way to get to her. The crowd started to part, even by New York standards, we must have seemed crazy. And there we were, standing in the middle of a Manhattan street, facing each other and smiling.I later asked how she’d known it was me —she never saw me! She said it was my laugh. I wouldn’t say my laugh is all that unusual, but I guess to a family member it’s infectious(有感染力的). It hits your heart and echoes in your mind.Since that time, my sister and I have never been separated. We both moved back to Wisconsin. We talk daily. Many years have passed, and we are now in our 50s. Our meeting by chance wasn’t just a sign. I see it as more of a lesson, a reminder not to lose touch with loved ones.24. What can we infer about the author according to Paragraph 2 A. Riding was her favorite way of travelling.B. She was shocked to see the scenes in New York.C. She was a big figure in the little town of Driver.D. The sightseeing didn’t leave her a deep impression.25. The author mentions “even by New York standards” in Paragraph 4 to________.A. compare different people’s reactionsB. emphasize how excited they were thenC. show how crazy people are in New YorkD. state she has known more about the city life26. In the author’s eyes, why could her sister recognize her laugh A. Because the street was quiet enough.B. Because it had some particular features.C. Because it stayed in her sister’s memory.D. Because they were apart for only 14 months.27. What’s the best title for the text A. Life: A Journey Full of Wonders B. Family: A Source of HappinessC. Laugh: The Most Familiar Sound D. Hometown: The Destination of Our LifeCGenerative AI must seem like a super weapon(武器)to people, who aim to cause disagreement and argument online. Deep-fake videos imitate(模仿)public figures. Crowds of conversational chatbots worsen conflict, and efforts to detect and relieve such campaigns remain in their early period.But can Generative AI also negotiate conflict Chris Bail, a leading expert on artificial intelligence and human behavior, and his colleagues have conducted research indicating that Large Language Models such as ChatGPT can make online conversations more productive, reduce impoliteness, and increase willingness to have difficult conversations across social disagreements. What’s more, they’re already seeing practical applications. Inspired by such research, Nextdoor, a community-based social-media platform that has struggled to boycott(联合抵制)online poison, recently launched a successful, large-scale(大规模的)effort to reduce impoliteness.In a study recently published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Chris Bail and his team examined whether Large Language Models can teach people conflict-negotiation techniques on a large scale. They enlisted a large group of people with different opinions about gun control and paired them to discuss this topic with someone who does not share their view on an online chat platform the team built.After exchanging several messages on their platform, half of the research participants began toreceive pop-up messages suggesting alternative phrasings for the messages they were about to send to their chat partner. These pop-ups employed GPT-3 to rephrase each post using conflict negotiation principles without changing the opinion expressed within them. Participants had the option to send these rephrased versions of their message or ignore them.The researchers found that GPT-3 is surprisingly good at processing difficult conversations. People whose partner used the AI-generated re-phrasings described the conversations as more productive, less stressful, and expressed greater willingness to consider alternative viewpoints.28. What can we infer from the first two paragraphs A. GenAI can be used in wars. B. GenAI can stop online impoliteness.C. GenAI can be used to deal with conflict online. D. GenAI can make conversations more difficult.29. What did Chris Bail’s team aim to do in a recent study A. To test the function of Large Language Models.B. To share the positive opinions on their own platform.C. To collect the different opinions related to gun control.D. To build an online chat platform only belonging themselves.30. How does GPT-3 help process difficult conversations A. By ignoring rephrased messages. B.By making choices for the participants.C. By changing the opinions of participants. D. By expressing the messages in a different way.31. Which of the following is the best title for the text A. People Share Ideas on Gun Control. B. A New Study About Practical Applications.C. GenAI Cause Disagreement And Argument Online. D. GenAI Could Make Online Conversations More Polite.DSearch and rescue teams are often accompanied by man’s best friend. A dog’s superior sense of smell can be of importance to finding survivors buried under fallen buildings. But now a new animal is being trained to assist search and rescue teams after an earthquake hits, and it’s the rat.These rescue rats are being trained by Dr. Donna Kean, a researcher from Glasgow, Scotland who has been working with rats for years. Kean explained why she and her colleagues at the nonprofit APOPOtrain rats instead of dogs. “The rats have a comparable sense of smell, and they’re just as trainable as dogs,” she said. “Their size is useful because they will be able to move through different environments that dogs just wouldn’t be able to.”At the moment, the rats are wearing homemade prototype backpacks that contain microphones, video equipment, and location trackers, and then scientists are sending these rats into mock debris(模拟的废墟). Rats would be able to get into small spaces to get to victims(受害者)buried in the ruins. “We have not been in a real situation yet, we have got a mock debris site. When we track the backpack, we will be able to hear from where the rat is inside the debris,” Kean said. “We have the potential to speak to victims through the rat.”Researchers train them on a basic series of behaviour. Training starts off in a really basic environment: a small and empty room.Then they gradually expand and increase the complexity(复杂性)in order to make it like real life. They can start adding in debris and making the training area look more like an actual collapsed building site.The training just started, and researchers still have to run training trials(实验)outside the research environment. They are working with a search and rescue group called GEA, who are based in Turkey, a country with frequent earthquakes and hoping that by next year they’ll be able to take the rats to Turkey for trials.32. What advantage do rats have over dogs in the rescue work A. They are easier to train. B. They have a better sense of smell.C. They are more flexible with a smaller size. D. They adapt to new environments more quickly.33. What does the underlined word “comparable” in paragraph 2 probably mean A. similar. B. suitable. C. unique. D. impressive.34. What is paragraph 4 mainly about A. The process of training the rats. B. The difficulty of conducting experiments.C. The rats’behaviour in real collapsed sites. D. The importance of the research environment.35. What will scientists plan to do next A. Use rats for rescue work in large numbers. B. Send rats to Turkey for field experiments.C. Carry out further study on disaster prevention. D. Develop the tracking technology to assist GEA.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。Birdwatching is a fun hobby for many people. 36 They take photos and record the birds’sounds to learn about their behavior.Prayitno Goenarto,31, is an experienced birdwatcher and wildlife photographer from Indonesia. When he was a college student, he got sick for a while. His doctor advised him to go outdoors more often. He then decided to watch birds and take photos of them.37 Knowing little about birds, he labeled it as a sparrow online. Soon, someone corrected him. The bird was actually a finch. This embarrassing incident led Goenarto to check out a field guide. That sparked his lifelong interest in birdwatching and photography.“Birdwatching has helped me in ways beyond what I could imagine.”Goenarto recalled. His life slows down. He makes new friends. He also encounters(遇见)bird species he didn’t know about.“ 38 Especially if you have placed a lot of effort into finding the bird —learning the bird’s song, habitat, ecology, and reviewing sightings.” he said. “I feel my heart race, my eyes widen and almost automatically(自动地)I start to smile.”One of the highlights of his career was a trip to a faraway island to search for a rare bird species. The journey was hard. It rained heavily every afternoon. He was cold and wet for nearly the entire trip. 39 “Each day was as exciting as the next, for almost all the birds I saw were new to me.” he said.Besides watching, Goenarto also takes photos and records sounds on field trips. Such photos of birds or other animals can help raise awareness to protect animals. Goenarto said, “ 40 They inspire people to learn more about what is out there and why it’s worth saving.”A. That was when he started watching birds.B. Once, he took a photo of a small songbird.C. It is quite difficult to describe such feelings.D. Birders seem to like to look at birds in the wild.E. Wildlife photography can capture amazing moments in nature.F. However, he finally managed to find many new locations for the species.G. They can also help him analyze and compare to see if there are any trends.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)阅读下列短文,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。One summer night in a seaside cottage, a small boy was in bed, sound asleep.

She could even stand on her hands and pull her body into different poses.“Eartha, your name means‘patience’. You need patience for yoga,” said her Grandma.Like many schools in the country, Eartha’s school held an annual yoga competition. Eartha wanted to make her Grandma proud. But she could hardly stand on one leg.Grandma returned to the kitchen. Eartha kept practicing hard. She stood straight, her arms at her sides. She moved her hands and knees, arching her back. All of these poses were easy, while the competition was certain to be harder. So she tried more challenging poses, lying on her stomach and pushing up on her hands. Her arms soon got tired and she collapsed to the floor. Eartha wandered into the kitchen.“Finished already ” asked Grandma.“It’s hard,” Eartha said. “How did you get to be so strong ”Grandma smiled. “Patience.”The next morning, Eartha felt ached and sore all over the body. Her legs hurt so badly from the poses she practiced that she even wanted to quit. However, her grandmother’s words echoed in her mind, and she held the pose for a longer time.Each day Eartha would practice a new pose, before going over the poses she had practiced the previous few days. With the date of the competition approaching, she started to feel stronger and more flexible. Her arms and legs stopped trembling.The day of the yoga competition arrived as expected. In the gym, Eartha lay on her back with her knees bent and placed her hands on the floor behind her. Everything went smoothly. Just then, so eager was she to win Grandma’s pride that her poses displayed a mix of impatience, and rigidness. Eartha fell on the mat, which cost her edge over other competitors. A bell rang, ending the first half of the competition.注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右:2. 请在答题卡的相应位置作答。Para 1: Thinking she ruined all because of impatience, Eartha looked at the audience for Grandma.Para 2: Calm and confident, Eartha stepped on the stage for the second half of the competition.重庆市字水中学2024-2025学年度上期年高2026届期中考试英语试卷参考答案与评分细则听力1-5 BABBC 6-10CACAB 11-15 BAABB 16-20 CCCAA阅读理解21-23 BDA 24-27BBCC 28-31 CADD 32-35CAAB七选五36-40 DBCFE完形填空41-45CADBA 46-50 BDCBA 51-55CDABD语法填空56. an 57. which/ that 58. were tied 59. when 60.

Out of her anticipation/ expectation, Grandma rose from the front seat, waved to her and beamed at her gently, her eyes brimmed with encouragement. With her head drooping down, Eartha, who was on the verge of tears, shuffled to Grandma with heavy steps and a sinking heart. “Don’t lose heart, my sweetheart! Believe‘Patience makes miracle’!” Grandma whispered to her ear in a mild tone, “Do you still remember the meaning of your name ” Astonished and unexpected, Eartha raised her misty eyes and firmly nodded to Grandma, whose meaning she had completely understood. She took a deep breath and freed herself from depression, attempting to battle in the second half competition.Calm and confident, Eartha stepped on the stage for the second half of the competition. Completely relieved and relaxed, Eartha immersed herself in every pose, letting go anything that may distract her. So full of patience and balance was every pose that her flexibility was perfectly demonstrated, which enabled her to stand out among competitors and win a burst of thunderous applause.Standing on the podium, excitement mingled with gratitude flooded her in waves, making her full of tears. Never in her wildest dream did she imagine she could win this award, which actually belonged to her as well as to her dearest Grandma. It was thanks to Grandma’s fine instruction and gentle encouragement that Eartha had an in-depth insight into “patience” and also enhanced her perception of its significance.听力原文Text 1M: Hi, I just filled out these forms.
