Young Padma would spend most of her evening after school in the fields, learning the art of organic farming.After moving to the city, she began missing the farm. Faced with the limited space, Padma felt the absence of fresh vegetables. Besides, she was disappointed with the taste and quality of shop-bought vegetables. Because chemicals used on vegetables were harmful to human health, she finally decided to take matters into her own hands and change her yard into a vegetable garden.Now 48, Padma has devoted the past 12 years to developing a garden with 200 plants of 20 varieties of vegetables. She relies on natural fertilizers (肥料). Additionally, she uses creative organic farming methods like preparing liquid fertilizers from fish.Her husband Suresh Ettan, who is now working in an oil and gas company, said, “As I don’t eat meat, I have limited food choices in the city. Now every morning, my wife sends me a good breakfast. Apart from that, she also shares the photos of her day’s harvest. I take pride in showing those photos to my colleagues.”For Padma, the garden has become a source of joy and also a link to her rural roots. Padma says she finds connection to her village through the traditional recipes and taste of homegrown vegetables. More importantly, by growing her own food, the gardener has not only found a way to provide a supply of organic vegetables to her family but also a way to earn some money. Earning money was what she didn’t expect. Padma says she has a small shop where she sells extra vegetables. Within an hour, all her vegetables are sold out. This organic farming business earns her up to Rs 1,000.24.When did Padma develop her love for organic farming A.After she moved to the city. B.When she helped on the farm.C.After she graduated from school. D.When she lacked fresh vegetables.25.Which words can best describe Padma A.Warm-hearted and confident. B.Generous and gifted.C.Creative and hard-working. D.Responsible and organized.26.How does Suresh Ettan feel about his wife’s farm A.The farm makes his life busy. B.The farm offers him rich food.C.The farm costs lots of his money. D.The farm prevents him eating meat.27.What unexpected benefit has been brought to Padma A.Some additional income. B.Good neighbour relationship.C.Fresh vegetables for her family. D.A connection with her hometown.CChinese painting, or Guohua, is a centuries-old art form that weaves together ink, brushstrokes (笔触), and deep philosophical insights. Rooted in ancient traditions, it focuses on “Xie Yi” and “Yi Jing”. Its goal is to capture the essence of a subject rather than its physical appearance, inviting viewers to engage with the artist’s inner world.The tools of Chinese painting are as symbolic as the art itself. Xuan paper, known for its absorbency, and ink sticks rubbed on ink stones produce varying tones of black. Brushes, crafted from animal hair, allow artists to create strokes ranging from bold and forceful to whisper-thin. These materials, alongside mineral pigments (颜料) like lapis lazuli (for blue) and cinnabar (for red), form the “Four Treasures of the Study”, reflecting the harmony between nature and human creativity.Styles in Chinese painting are divided into two main types: Gongbi and Xieyi. Gongbi, or detailed painting, requires great care, using fine lines and bright colors to show royal scenes or birds and flowers. Xieyi, or freehand painting, focuses on natural expression and emotion, often seen in landscapes that use ink washes to create misty mountains or flowing rivers.Subjects in Chinese painting mirror cultural values. Landscapes dominate, symbolizing humanity’s connection to nature and Taoist principles of harmony. Bird-and-flower paintings use symbols like plum blossoms and bamboo to convey moral virtues. Figure painting, from Tang Dynasty court portraits to Zhang Zeduan’s Along the River During the Qingming Festival, captures historical narratives and daily life.In the 20th century, artists like Qi Baishi changed traditional styles by mixing ink painting with Western ideas. He painted shrimp with smooth, lively brushstrokes that make them look alive. Wu Guanzhong tried new ways to paint landscapes with ink, while today’s artists even mix Chinese calligraphy with computer art. However, Chinese painting still acts as a bridge connecting old and new — like a poetic picture that shows the heart of Chinese culture in every brushstroke.28.What is the main function of Xuan paper in Chinese painting according to the passage A.It is the only symbol of Chinese painting.B.It is used to store ink sticks and ink stones.C.It helps to create bold and forceful brush marks.D.Its water-absorbing ability enables the creation of different black shades.29.What distinguishes Xieyi painting from Gongbi A.Focus on details painting.B.Emphasis on emotional expression.C.Inclusion of historical figures.D.Use of fine lines and bright colors.30.Why does the author mention Qi Baishi and Wu Guanzhong A.To compare them with ancient painters.B.To explain the decline of ink painting.C.To show how traditions develop.D.To criticize modern art trends.31.What is the central theme of the passage A.Exploring Chinese painting’s cultural and philosophical roots.B.Comparing artistic tools in Chinese and Western painting.C.Debating the significance of ink versus color.D.Introducing famous masters of Chinese painting.DThe world’s birds, regarded as indicators for the condition of the planet, are disappearing in large numbers as the impact of humanity on the Earth grows, a global review has found.There are about 11,000 species of bird flying on this planet, but the populations of half of them are falling while just 6% increasing. Bird populations are affected by all the damage caused by human activity, from the destruction of wild habitat, the climate crisis, and pesticides and other pollution, to over-hunting. Billions of birds have been lost in recent decades in North America and Europe alone while there are more species in the tropics (热带).Conservation efforts have been successful in rescuing individual species in specific locations, but political will and funding are needed to reverse the global decline. While conservation work has improved populations of 70 species, enough to lower their risk of extinction since 1988, 391 species have disappeared. “Currently, we’re speeding up the rescue of the species at risk, but we’re not stopping the flow of species towards extinction. There’s still so much we can do with site-based conservation,” said Alexander Lees at Manchester Metropolitan University, who led the review.Global data collated (校对) by Bird-Life International underpinned the review. The conservation group’s chief executive, Patricia Zurita said, “Birds truly are good indicators for the health of our planet because of their sensitivity to ecosystem changes, their common existence around the planet, and how well-studied they are. We need to listen and act upon what birds are telling us, as they disappear ever faster.”32.What can we know about the populations of birds A.They are falling in large numbers.B.They are influenced by human activities only.C.Half of them are increasing rather than decreasing.D.They are falling faster in North America and Europe.33.What can we infer according to Alexander Lees A.Many species of birds have been rescued.B.We won’t be able to stop birds from dying out.C.We should do more than site-based conservation.D.The flow of species towards extinction is slowing down.34.What do the underlined word “underpinned” in paragraph 4 mean A.Corrected. B.Supported. C.Criticize. D.Evaluated.35.What is the text mainly about A.The importance of birds. B.Humans’ damage to birds.C.The living conditions for birds. D.The decline and conservation of birds.七选五The zero-effort holiday workout (锻炼)Build fun activities into your time away and you may even burn off the extra calories (卡路里) you eat. Try to be active for at least two hours a day.Go for an evening walk. Take a leaf out of the book of people in southern Mediterranean countries and go for a walk when it’s a bit cooler. Try to make it a daily routine while you’re away. It’s a pleasant way to experience local life. 36Get in the water. Don’t just relax at the water’s edge but go for a swim from time to time, play games or just walk in the water. 37 Or if that all sounds a bit too cold and wet, rent a rowing boat, or go sailing. Messing about on the water burns calories and exercises your muscles (肌肉) more than being on dry land.Fly a kite. 38 It will give your upper body a great workout as you struggle with that kite and run to keep it in the air or follow it down when it falls to earth.Fly a Frisbee (飞盘). 39 And if you play Frisbee on a sandy beach, you’ll be working those leg muscles that much harder.40 Have a daily competition in the swimming pool, such as swimming between people’s legs or making the biggest splash, or a week-long badminton tournament. And make sure you make it as simply as possible.A.Play ball games.B.Hold a family Olympics.C.You may never think of it as an exercise.D.This is an excellent activity for a windy day.E.And you’ll feel spiritually and physically refreshed.F.You’ll get your heart rate up every time you run or jump for that plastic plate.G.Simply standing in the water is a good workout thanks to the action of the water.三、完形填空John Smith, a 35-year-old office worker from Manchester, was stuck in a cycle of poor health and low energy. 41 over 220 pounds and diagnosed as pre-diabetic, he was under great stress and knew he needed to make a change.

He found that the time spent outdoors and the sense of 49 after each run helped him manage stress and anxiety. “Running 50 me a new perspective on life,” John said. “It’s not just about fitness; it’s about mental 51 and confidence.”Today, John regularly participates in local 5K races and has 52 his friends and family to 53 running.

The afternoon sunlight streamed through the dusty art room windows, making the “Young Artists Showcase” poster shine brightly. The red deadline date — This Friday! — seemed to jump out of the poster at her. For three weeks, the shy 15-year-old had been slipping into this quiet corner every day after school. She hid behind tall painting stands, secretly practicing painting skills, where no one could see her. Despite the great joy that painting brought to her, the thought of showing her work to others made her feel extremely nervous.Her fear all came from last year’s painful memory. At the middle school art exhibition, one of her landscape paintings of a forest was laughed at by a boy. “Is that supposed to be a tree or a broccoli ” The whole class burst out laughing. Embarrassed and ashamed, Lila ran to the bathroom, exploding with emotion. Since that day, Lila only drew in the dim (昏暗的) light of her closet. Every finished artwork went into an old wooden box under her bed — her secret treasure chest.But Mr. Avon, the new art teacher, changed everything. During their first one-on-one session, he didn’t comment on her shaking lines or confusing colors. Instead, he placed a jar of wildflowers on the windowsill. “Paint what you feel inside, not just what you see,” he said gently. “Remember, every artist faces criticism, but it’s your courage that defines your art.” That day, Lila noticed how sunlight danced through the flower petals (花瓣).Now, holding the competition entry form, she still felt two things left her palms sweat.One was that the showcase would be in the main hallway where hundreds of students passed every day. The other was Mr. Avon had secretly submitted her painting Rainy Day Sunflowers — the first artwork from her treasure box. She wanted to run, to hide, to pretend this opportunity didn’t exist. But a small voice inside her, one that sounded a lot like Mr. Avon’s,urged her to be brave. With a deep breath, Lila picked up a pen. Her hand shook as she filled out the form, her name and the title of her painting.注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右;2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。A question repeated in Lila’s mind, “What if everyone laughs again ”_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________But then, she heard a sigh of admiration from the crowd._____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________答案第1页,共2页江西省武宁县尚美中学 2024-2025 学年度下学期期中测试高二英语试 B.

Every finished artwork went into an old woodenbox under her bed — her secret treasure chest.But Mr. Avon, the new art teacher, changed everything.

From my perspective, it is an efficient way to stay fit. Online fitness makes it convenient for us to work out anytime and anywhere as it allows us to arrange schedule flexibly. It also offers a wide variety of workouts for people with different fitness needs. Moreover, the online platform makes it easy for fitness lovers to get engaged and encouraged. This approach greatly arouses our interest and motivation and helps us to lead an active lifestyle. In conclusion, online fitness is an advisable option.Version 2:I am not convinced that online fitness is a good choice for people who seek effective workout. The main disadvantage lies in the lack of in-person guidance as online fitness relies on video or live-streaming instructions. Also the limitation of equipment is a challenge for home exercisers who desire the same training effects as the instructors on line. To make things worse, possible technical problems will affect the flow of work out, which spoils the fun and damages peoples enthusiasm. Therefore, I would go to the gym for exercise.67. A question repeated in Lila’s mind, “What if everyone laughs again ” On the day of the showcase, Lila’s knees trembled as she stood near her painting Rainy Day Sunflowers. The hallway was filled with students. She caught snippets of conversation and flinched at every laugh, convinced it was directed at her. Her palms were so sweaty that she kept wiping them on her jeans. Just as she was about to dash away, Mr. Avon appeared. “Trust your art,” he whispered. Lila stared at the painting, recalling how she’d captured the sunflowers’ resilience in the rain, pouring her own struggles into each brushstroke. But then, she heard a sigh of admiration from the crowd. A senior leaned in, studying the details. “The contrast between the dark rain and the bright petals... it’s like hope breaking through,” she said. More students gathered, their eyes filled with awe. One boy even asked, “Can you teach me how to paint like this ” Lila’s throat tightened with emotion. When a teacher offered to feature her work in the school newsletter, she finally smiled. For the first time, she understood that facing her fears could transform pain into pride, and her hidden masterpiece into a source of inspiration for others.答案第1页,共2页 展开更多...... 收起↑ 资源列表 江西省武宁县尚美中学2024-2025学年度下学期期中测试高一英语试题答题卡.docx 江西省武宁县尚美中学2024-2025学年度下学期期中测试高二英语试题.docx 江西省武宁县尚美中学2024-2025学年度下学期期中测试高二英语试题.pdf 江西省武宁县尚美中学2024-2025学年度下学期期中测试高二英语试题答案.docx 高考英语听力模拟训练 05.mp3
