Open a Book, Open Your Mind
A good book opens a window to a wider world. On World Book Day, I would like to recommend The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway.
This story follows an old fisherman’s courageous journey on the vast sea. Though he faces great challenges, he never gives up. What impresses me most is his unyielding spirit: a man can be destroyed but not defeated. It reminds us to stay strong in the face of difficulties, and that is why I believe this book is worth reading.
Let’s celebrate World Book Day by opening a book — open your mind, and discover the strength within!

With no time to think, she jumped. She landed in the water with a loud splash. The water reached her waist, and it was freezing cold. She felt around blindly until her hand brushed against her husband’s shoulder. Gathering all her strength, Penny held him tightly, keeping his head above the water. “I am with you,” she told him. “You must hold on.” Ryan slowly opened his eyes and gave Penny a faint smile. He struggled to speak, his voice barely a whisper. “Don’t worry… I’ll be okay.” Together, they waited for the rescuers in the darkness.
Then a light appeared above. The fire department had arrived and quickly lowered a rescuer into the well. “Save my husband first! Please!” Penny begged, tears in her eyes. The rescuer nodded and carefully secured Ryan into the rescue basket. With Ryan safe, it was Penny’s turn. As she emerged into the cold morning air, exhausted but relieved, she let out a long, shaky breath. Ryan was there, safe, and gave her a weak but grateful smile. He knew it was Penny’s love and courage that had pulled him out of the darkness.2025-2026学年湖南省武冈市第二中学高一下学期4月月考英语试卷

Spring in the UK brings a certain charm to its varied landscape, drawing attention to places that best show the spirit of the season.
Stour Valley
The beauty of the River Stour and its valley has long attracted artists. This peaceful countryside, with its historic walking paths, continues to inspire visitors today. In the popular village, you can see local crafts or even join a painting course at the 15th-century hall.
Falmouth
Visit Falmouth to experience a traditional seaside town with a strong creative energy. Its deep-water harbour is full of maritime (海事的) history. Locals remain closely tied to the sea, from family-run seafood restaurants to paddleboarders (桨板运动员) on the river mouth. The town’s lively arts scene fills small places with independent theaters, music, and exhibitions, while annual seafood festivals are key local events.
Monmouthshire
This county in southeast Wales packs a powerful punch with its grand mountains, winding rivers, and charming market towns. It is an excellent getaway for outdoor lovers, featuring scenic walking paths that go through peaceful fields, ancient castles (城堡), and mysterious ruins. The county stands out as a creative and food-centered hub, known for its independent shops and celebrated restaurants, and hosts the famous food festival each September.
Whitley Bay
Once a classic seaside resort, Whitley Bay has been given new life and is firmly back on the map. Its main attraction is a magnificent mile-long sandy beach.

The Pacific Northwest’s misty woods were not just Rosemary’s backyard — they were her first classroom. Now, as Response’s new Community Education Coordinator, she spreads that “education-through-experience” spirit everywhere, turning lessons into stories kids will never forget.
Her favorite wilderness adventure unfolded on a spring morning with a group of fourth graders. Their task was simple: find three “forest friends” and write a short story about each one. At first, the kids hung back, moving their feet slowly as if they would rather stay inside playing video games — until eight-year-old Leo suddenly ran toward a bush, shouting, “Look! A squirrel with an acorn (橡树果) bigger than his head!” Rosemary dropped to her knees. “Let’s give him a name,” she said. They settled on “Mr. Nutkin,” and Leo wrote quickly in his journal: “Mr. Nutkin is in a hurry. Maybe he’s hiding snacks for winter so he doesn’t get hungry.” Soon, everyone spread across the woods. When it was time to leave, Leo even put a pinecone (松果) in his pocket, saying it was “for Mr. Nutkin’s house so he stays warm”.
Weeks later, an envelope arrived on Rosemary’s desk, with Leo’s messy handwriting on the front. Inside was a drawing: a squirrel in a tiny pinecone house, next to a stick figure labeled “Me,” and a note: “Mr. Nutkin moved into his new home! I put it in my backyard. Can we go back to the woods soon ”
That’s the magic of Rosemary’s teaching: it doesn’t end when the class does. Whether she’s in a church, a farm, or a forest, she turns lessons into connections — ones that last long after the pinecones are collected and the journals are closed. Now, at Response, she still keeps that pinecone from the woods in her bag. It’s a reminder: the best education is not about facts on a page but about making kids feel that the world is their storybook — and they are the ones who get to write the fun parts.
24. Why were the woods regarded as Rosemary’s first classroom
A. She once taught her students there. B. She learned by exploring nature there.
C. She did research on wildlife there. D. She experienced her first adventure there.
25. What do the underlined words “hung back” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Looked around carefully. B. Stood still quietly.
C. Stayed behind unwillingly. D. Moved forward bravely.
26. What is the purpose of paragraph 3
A. To show that Leo had a talent for drawing. B. To tell readers that Leo kept his promise.
C. To share more about Leo’s story with readers. D. To show that the lesson had a lasting effect.
27. How does Rosemary teach the kids
A. By letting them experience things in real life. B. By showing them nature’s secrets in class.
C. By organizing outdoor games for them. D. By asking them to write stories about their life.
C
Recently, London Fashion Week witnessed a welcome return of body diversity on its catwalks, but at the same time the wider fashion industry is shifting back towards celebrating super-thin models. Several emerging designers featured models of various shapes and sizes, ranging from UK size 10 to 16, often called “mid-size”, and plus-size models, from size 18 upwards. This move comes at a time when experts worry that past progress in size inclusivity (包容性) is being reduced, with a troubling return to promoting thinness.
Karoline Vitto, a Brazilian designer based in London, was one of those speaking out for change. At her first catwalk show in two years, she questioned why curvy (曲线美的) models were disappearing. Her brand includes sizes from UK 8 to 22, and she chose models who fit those sizes. This allowed the audience to see how her designs actually look on real bodies. With a small budget, 23 models of different sizes took part, many even paying their own travel costs from places like Brazil and the US to support her message.
Other designers also championed body diversity. Phoebe English held open casting calls to find everyday people with different body shapes. Sinead Gorey designed her clothes specially to highlight and celebrate curves. Together, they stood against the return of super-thin beauty standards.
However, casting directors point out that while new designers support body diversity, major luxury brands need to lead the way. These big names shape what is seen as desirable and acceptable for smaller labels. Sadly, there has been a recent drop in the use of plus-size models across the industry, partly influenced by a cultural shift toward thinness in Hollywood and elsewhere.
Despite this, Vitto remains hopeful. She believes inclusivity is not just a passing trend but a real commitment for many designers, especially those led by women who understand the pressure to look a certain way. She points to other female-led, size-inclusive brands as pioneers of real change. For her, showing real bodies on the catwalk is not just about fashion — it is personal.
28. What do experts think of the recent change in the fashion industry
A. It’s a welcome return. B. It puts past progress at risk.
C. It will end the use of thin models. D. It promotes body diversity.
29. Why are Phoebe English and Sinead Gorey mentioned
A. To list more supporters of body diversity. B. To show their own special clothing styles.
C. To introduce ways of finding ordinary models. D. To prove the popularity of their new brands.
30. What does the text imply about major luxury fashion brands
A. They have been actively promoting body diversity. B. They are the main force behind size inclusivity.
C. They strongly support young designers’ choices. D. They are not doing enough to set a positive example.
31. What is Karoline Vitto’s attitude towards the future of size inclusivity
A. Worried. B. Doubtful. C. Optimistic. D. Indifferent.
D
In a contest for jobs requiring the most patience, art restoration (修复) might take first place. Traditionally, restorers repair paintings by recreating the artwork’s exact colors to fill in the damage, one spot at a time. Even with X-ray imaging and coloring analyses, several parts of the expensive process, such as the cleaning and restoring, are done by hand. Meanwhile, direct restoring might harm the painter’s original vision.
That’s where Alex Kachkine comes in. The MIT student has developed a way to apply digital restorations onto a damaged painting. In short, the approach uses pre-existing AI tools to create a digital version of what the freshly painted artwork would have looked like. Based on this version, Kachkine’s new software creates a digital map of the retouches (修复点) with exact colors to fill the gaps in the painting.
The digital map is then printed onto two layers of thin, transparent (透明的) film — one with colored retouches and one with the same pattern in white. This mask is attached to the painting to position the retouches, which helps achieve a faithful restoration in hours instead of months.
Kachkine tested the approach on a 15th-century oil painting in need of restoration, by a Dutch artist whose name is now unknown. The retouches were generated by matching the surrounding color, copying similar patterns visible elsewhere in the painting or the artist’s style in other works. The painting’s 5,612 damaged regions were filled with 57,314 different colors in 3.5 hours — 66 hours faster than traditional methods would have likely taken.
The new process still raises concerns, such as whether the applied film affects the viewing experience or whether AI-generated corrections are accurate. Still, Kachkine says this technique could help address the many damaged artworks in storage rooms, enabling restoration of countless paintings considered not worth high conservation budgets.
32. What can we know about traditional art restoration
A. It causes more damage. B. It lacks technical support.
C. It takes a lot of time and effort. D. It adds value of an artwork.
33. What can Kachkine’s new software do
A. Decorate the damaged paintings. B. Create a detailed copy of the painting.
C. Make a map of colored retouches. D. Promote the application of AI tools.
34. How were the retouches of the 15th-century oil painting achieved
A. By applying extra colors. B. By referring to other painters’ works.
C. By learning from traditional methods. D. By studying the artist’s painting techniques.
35. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A. How AI Influences Our Future. B. A New Brush for Art Restoration.
C. When Restoration Meets Tight Budgets. D. A Rising Restorer of Ancient Paintings.

On a misty morning in February, Ryan and his wife Penny were harvesting black pepper (黑胡椒) on their land. Ryan climbed up a tree that stood close to the family well (水井). From there, he picked peppers from the vines (藤蔓) that wrapped around the tree.
Then a sharp cracking sound cut through the quiet morning. The branch beneath Ryan broke, and he lost his balance. He fell into the 20-foot well below, hitting his back and legs against the wall on the way down.
Penny heard the crash, then the terrifying splash (落水声). She rushed to the well and called her husband’s name. His faint voice echoed (回响) back — he was all right. She found a thick rope and lowered it into the well for him to climb back up, but Ryan cried out, “I can’t. I’m too weak, and my leg is hurt.”
Without a second thought, Penny tied one end of the rope to a tree and asked another farmer to call the fire department. Then she grabbed the rope and began to climb down.
The wall was slippery, and her feet kept sliding off. Meanwhile, the rope was cutting into her hands, leaving her hands bloody. Halfway down, Penny lost her grip and fell on a ledge (石台). The impact left her breathless.
As she caught her breath, she peered down into the blackness, hoping to catch sight of Ryan. But she could neither see nor hear anything. Reaching out her hand, she could feel the cold water just below.
She tried to call her husband’s name again. No answer. A wave of terror swept over her. Was he hurt badly Was he still alive She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself. She knew she had to keep going. The fire department was on the way, but she couldn’t just wait. She had to reach him, no matter what.
注意：
（1）续写词数应为150个左右；
