The lady’s face, which had been glowing with triumph a moment before, instantly froze. She stood rooted to the spot, mouth open, too ashamed to say a word. Anger and embarrassment burned her cheeks when she caught disapproving stares from surrounding passengers. She twisted her scarf nervously, completely lost for words to get out of the awkward situation. The black man, however, remained gentle and calm. He smiled politely at the air hostess, picked up his luggage and walked steadily towards the first-class cabin.
The applause from the fellow passengers was loud and long, echoing through the cabin. All passengers cheered for the air hostess’s fair and clever decision, which perfectly punished the woman’s unreasonable racial prejudice. No one felt pity for the embarrassed lady, because her rude discrimination had already cost her others’ respect. This ending tells us a simple truth: Prejudice hurts others and eventually disgraces yourself; only when you respect others can you win respect back.2025-2026学年湖北楚天协作体高二下学期4月期中英语试题

I SAY HELLO
There she was. Beautiful, gentle, funny and kind. Hands shaking, voice cracking, I say hello. Now we are married, with a house, a dog and an amazing two-year-old son. Piles of laundry, piles of diapers, piles of dishes, and piles of laughter are all around us. Do we really want another Yes, we do. My wife, tired and uncomfortable from this second pregnancy, says it’s time. Hand in hand, we make it to the hospital. A little while later, I see her. There she was. Beautiful, gentle, a miracle. Hands shaking, voice cracking, tears streaming, I say hello.
PATRICK WRIGHT, Powder Springs, Georgia
RACCOON (浣熊) STEW
“We’re having raccoon stew. I scraped it off the road.” He’d laugh. As a little girl, I’d run screaming from him. As the years passed, roadkill jokes became essential. I began to join in. We would play tricks on each other, a game that yielded two winners, me and my grandfather. As illness slowly began to take him from me, we’d say, “Watch out for those raccoons,” even when his voice became a whisper. My beloved grandfather passed away on January 17, 2011. We had never said “I love you.” We always let the raccoons do the talking.
TRESA MATULEWICZ, Altamont, New York
HER CHEEKS ARE PINK
At 23, I had a new six-inch scar across my abdomen, and it was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. I had endured two years of end-stage kidney failure. My journey began with disbelief, shifted into determination, and ended with my younger sister, my hero, saving my life. After the successful kidney transplant, a nurse wheeled her hospital bed into my room. My pale complexion had already changed, and my sister’s first words were “Her cheeks are pink!” Her kidney was working behind my beautiful new scar... and still is, 11 years later. Thank you, Shannon!

Chinese speed skater Ning Zhongyan delivered a career-defining performance at the Milano-Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics, securing his first Olympic gold medal in the men’s 1,500m event.
Racing on Thursday, Ning completed three laps around the oval track in 1 minute and 41.98 seconds, resetting the Olympic record. The magnitude of his achievement left him emotional and almost in disbelief, especially after overcoming the event’s overwhelming favorite, two-time world champion Jordan Stolz of the United States. Ning’s victory marked the Chinese delegation’s first gold medal in ice sports at these Games and only the second Olympic title in history for Chinese men’s speed skating.
“I still can’t believe I did it. That I’ve climbed over the mountain, which seemed insurmountable for so long,” said emotional Ning after lengthy celebrations with his coaches and teammates. Stolz, who had been the dominant force in the sport, was the “mountain” Ning had struggled to conquer in previous competitions. Racing in pair 13 against legendary Dutch skater Kjeld Nuis, the defending champion from Beijing 2022, Ning completed a flawless race. With a flying start and smooth, powerful strokes through the curves, he finished ahead of Nuis. Stolz, competing in the final pair, clocked 1:42.75 to take silver, while Nuis secured bronze with 1:42.82.
Stolz, who had already won gold in the 500m and 1,000m earlier in the Games, praised Ning’s breakthrough performance, acknowledging, “Today he had a better race. It was super good.” Celebrating wildly with Ning was his Dutch coach, Johan de Wit, who had taken Ning into his training camp three years ago when Ning failed to medal at the Beijing 2022 Games. Training systematically with De Wit and two-time Olympic champion Miho Takagi in Japan, Ning significantly improved his consistency. De Wit noted, “By watching him skate, you can feel that good performances are coming.”
Ning’s golden dash was part of a remarkable two-day celebration for China. The victory followed snowboarder Su Yiming’s gold in men’s slopestyle on Wednesday. Shortly after Su’s victory, five-time Olympian Xu Mengtao delivered China’s second gold by delivering a multi-flip stunt (多周翻转动作) to defend her women’s freestyle skiing aerials (空中技巧) title, becoming the world’s only aerials skier to retain an Olympic gold in the discipline. Additionally, freestyle skier Wang Xindi added to the country’s gold haul on Friday, building on his wife Xu Mengtao’s achievement.
Ning’s triumph, built on two earlier bronze medals in the 1,000m, proved the value of his dedication and the trust within Team Gold. His emotional victory, described by many as a game-changer in the sport, not only fulfilled his personal dream but also underscored China’s growing strength on the Olympic stage.
4. What does the underlined word “insurmountable” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean
A. Effortless to overcome. B. Impossible to conquer.
C. Dangerous to approach. D. Unwilling to acknowledge.
5. What is the main idea of Paragraph 4
A. The detailed techniques Ning used to win the race.
B. Stolz’s dominance in the 500m and 1,000m events.
C. The key factors and support behind Ning’s victory.
D. The celebration between Ning and his coach after the race.
6. According to the passage, what made Xu Mengtao’s gold medal particularly special
A. She successfully defended her Olympic title in aerials.
B. She won her first Olympic gold medal at the age of 35.
C. She won the gold medal on the same day as her husband.
D. She became the only skier to win gold in women’s aerials.
7. Which of the following would be the most suitable title for the passage
A. Stolz Suffers First Defeat in Milano-Cortina
B. Chinese Skaters Dominate the Speed Skating Rink
C. A Night of Celebrations for the Chinese Olympic Delegation
D. Ning Zhongyan’s Golden Breakthrough at the 2026 Winter Games

Kids who are stars in sports and music don’t usually grow up to be stars as adults, a new study found.
An examination of thousands of adults across fields including sports, music, academia and chess found that world-class performers — Olympic champions, renowned composers, Nobel winners — often don’t excel early. There was just a 10% overlap between high-performing kids and elite (精英)-level adults, researchers reported in a paper Thursday in the journal Science. Most young top performers didn’t remain top performers during peak-performance age, and most adult standouts weren’t standouts as kids.
“There are those child prodigies (神童) who later become world-class performers at peak performance age” said Arne Gullich, a professor of sports science at RPTU Kaiserslautern in Germany and co-author of the research. “But these are the exception, not the rule.” The researchers defined peak years as being between ages 20 and 30 for sports and chess, and more middle age — between 40 and 50 — for science and music. The findings were consistent across domains, using data from nearly 35,000 adults in some two dozen previously published studies.
The new analysis challenges the belief that excellence comes from hours of specialized early training — fueled in part by the growing business of elite competitive programs that kids today enroll in for sports and other activities. Ideas like the “10,000-hour rule,” popularized by author Malcolm Gladwell, often guide coaches, athletes and parents. The rule suggests a person needs some 10,000 hours of practice to achieve mastery.
“Many people make decisions for themselves or their children based on these ideas, such as starting their child early in a sport or a musical instrument with the goal of producing the next Tiger Woods or Yo-Yo Ma,” said Brooke Macnamara, a human-performance researcher at Purdue University and co-author of the Science research. Fred Oswald, an industrial organizational psychologist who wasn't involved in the work, said the findings were informative but reflect only general trends. “The implications for advising individuals are unclear,” he said.
The analysis indicated that adult world-class performers did a range of activities when younger with fewer practice hours in their specific discipline but more time in other activities. Gullich says there’s a key takeaway: Encourage kids to pursue a variety of interests rather than specializing early. The evidence from this paper suggests that engaging in two additional areas to your main discipline is the sweet spot, he added. “So it’s not doing as many as possible, like sampling all the instruments in music.”
8. What can we infer from the new study
A. Early specialization guarantees adult success.
B. Peak performance age is identical across all fields.
C. All elite adults were not top performers in childhood.
D. The researchers interviewed 35,000 adults in different fields.
9. Why does the author mention the “10,000-hour rule”
A. To explain the logic behind current training trends.
B. To criticize Malcolm Gladwell’s writing style.
C. To encourage parents to start their children early.
D. To prove mastery requires long-term practice.
10. What is Fred Oswald’s attitude towards the study’s implications for individuals
A. Critical. B. Reserved. C. Indifferent. D. Optimistic.
11. What does Arne Gullich advise kids to do based on the study
A. Pursue as many interests as possible.
B. Enroll in elite competitive programs early.
C. Focus on one discipline from an early age.
D. Combine the main discipline with two extra areas.

The Sun has been providing energy for billions of years, and the sunlight that strikes Earth continuously carries more than 10,000 times the amount of energy the world currently uses. Solar power is a clean, renewable source that never runs out, unlike fossil fuels such as oil and coal, which can’t be replenished (补充) and produce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions that contribute to pollution and climate change. In the United States, buildings account for 40% of energy use and 70% of electricity consumption, producing over one-third of the nation’s GHG emissions. Rooftop solar panels offer a sustainable solution, and nearly 78 gigawatts of solar capacity have already been installed nationwide — enough to power 14.5 million homes. The growing interest in solar energy is also creating well-paying jobs, with solar panel installer expected to be one of America’s fastest-growing occupations through 2026.
A solar cell converts sunlight into electricity through a process similar to photosynthesis. Photovoltaic (PV) cells collect sunlight and transform it into electrical energy. Multiple solar cells form a solar panel, and the more panels installed, the more energy can be generated. Solar batteries can store extra energy for use when the sun isn’t shining, providing a backup power source. This is especially important as climate change leads to more frequent extreme weather events and power outages.
In New York City, an environmental organization called Solar One promotes solar energy through several innovative programs. Their Here Comes Solar (HCS) initiative helps install rooftop panels on buildings, partnering with local environmental justice groups to make solar power accessible, affordable, and equitable for working-class communities, which are the most impacted by pollution and climate change. Through shared community solar programs, renters can purchase shares of solar installations and benefit from clean energy without installing panels on their own buildings. A project on public housing in Harlem and Brooklyn will help 350 low-income households save money on electricity bills. Almost a third of households in the United States are energy burdened, which means they struggle to pay their energy bills, which are among their biggest expenses.
Solar One also offers workforce training and environmental education. Their Green Workforce Training program provides hard-skills instruction in green construction, building maintenance, and solar PV installation for individuals facing employment barriers. Meanwhile, the Green Design Lab delivers K-12 STEM education, reaching over 20,000 students across more than 1,000 schools. Students engage in hands-on activities like building mini solar-powered race cars and constructing batteries, developing critical thinking skills while learning about energy and climate change. Through summer programs and internships (实习期), high school students explore careers in the field of clean energy and participate in service-learning projects and exciting field trips like touring a solar array or a rooftop farm.
When it comes to creating a sustainable environment and a healthier future for all, the Sun has a starring role.
12. What does the author primarily emphasize about solar power in the first paragraph
A. It is a clean energy source that can’t be replenished.
B. It has the potential to completely replace fossil fuels now.
C. Its supply is inexhaustible compared to traditional energy.
D. Its usage is currently limited by technological challenges.
13. According to the passage, how is the solar energy addressed when the sun isn’t shining
A. By integrating it with traditional fossil fuel power plants.
B. By using battery systems to reserve extra electricity.
C. By increasing the total surface area of solar panels installed.
D. By relying on government support to maintain the power supply.
14. What is the purpose of Solar One’s Here Comes Solar program
A. To develop new solar technology.
B. To train students in solar installation.
C. To install solar panels on all public housing units across New York City.
D. To lower financial barriers for relatively poor communities to adopt solar energy.
15. What can we learn about Solar One’s educational programs from the 4th paragraph
A. They focus only on college students.
B. They replace traditional science classes.
C. They are mainly designed for engineering majors.
D. They combine hands-on activities with career exploration.

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was a crowded flight. A beautifully dressed lady, who appeared to be in her early thirties, boarded the plane with an air of importance. She found her seat and was about to settle in when she noticed her seatmate: a black man. An expression of slight distaste flickered across her face. She hesitated, standing in the aisle, clearly showing she was unwilling to take her seat.
After a moment, she turned around and walked back to the air hostess. “Excuse me,” she said, her voice sharp. “I need you to change my seat.”
The air hostess, maintaining a professional smile, asked politely, “May I ask the reason, madam ”
The woman lowered her voice but spoke with obvious dislike, “It’s impossible for me to sit next to a black man. I find it unacceptable. Do you understand ” The air hostess was taken aback by the prejudice in the seemingly elegant woman’s words. She remained calm, however, and explained that she would check for available seats.
A few minutes later, the air hostess returned. “I’m so sorry, madam,” she said apologetically. “The economy class is fully booked. There isn’t a single empty seat.” The woman’s face fell, and she was about to complain when the air hostess continued. “However, we have a policy to ensure our passengers’ comfort to the best of our ability. Let me speak with the captain to see if there’s any other solution. We wouldn’t want you to have an unpleasant journey.” The lady nodded, a smug (得意的) smile returning to her face, expecting a special privilege.
After a short while, the air hostess came back. “Madam,” she said, “we’ve found a solution. We don’t want to make you uncomfortable. There is one seat available in First Class. It’s highly unusual, but the captain has agreed to make an exception for you.”
The lady’s eyes lit up with triumph (胜利). “That’s more like it,” she thought, ready to gather her things.
Just as she was about to stand up, the air hostess turned to the black man and said in a warm and respectful voice, “Dear sir, would you please do us the honor of moving to First Class Please gather your belongings. The captain would be delighted to offer you a more pleasant journey, as we believe no passenger should have to sit next to a source of unpleasantness.”
注意：所续写短文的词数应为150左右；续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；
The lady’s face, which had been glowing with triumph a moment before, instantly froze.
