【答案】 Weeks passed, and the tin can grew heavier and heavier. One afternoon, after walking Chico and finishing Mrs. Rodriguez’s chores, Milo rushed home, took out the can, and counted the coins carefully. The clink of coins filled the room, and when he finished, his eyes lit up — he had exactly thirty-six dollars! He held the coins tightly, ran to the shop, and bought the beautiful scarf, which felt soft and warm in his hands. He asked the shopkeeper to wrap it nicely, and then hurried home, hiding the box under his coat.
That evening, Milo couldn’t wait to show his mother the box. After dinner, he took Angie’s hand, led her to the sofa, and pulled out the wrapped box with a big smile. “Happy birthday, Mom,” he said softly. Angie opened the box, and when she saw the scarf, her eyes filled with tears. She touched the soft wool, looked at Milo’s dirty knees and sore hands, and hugged him happily. “It’s the most beautiful gift I’ve ever had,” she whispered, her voice full of love. Milo felt warm all over, knowing all his hard work was worth it.2025-2026学年河南南阳市镇平县第一高级中学高三下学期二模（二） 英语试卷

阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
The Future of Clean Energy in Homes
Heating, cooling, and powering homes contribute significantly to global CO emissions. As nations strive to reduce their carbon footprints, residential energy use — responsible for nearly 20% of energy-related emissions — poses unique challenges. Below is the 2022 breakdown of household emissions by source.
ELECTRICITY 52%
HEATING 28%
COOLING 12%
APPLIANCES 6%
LIGHTING 2%
Clean energy solutions for homes must be affordable, efficient, and adaptable to diverse climates. While technologies vary, here are key innovations driving the shift toward sustainability.
HEAT PUMPS — Efficient Heating/Cooling
Replacing gas boilers, electric heat pumps transfer warmth from air or ground, cutting heating emissions by 50%. Hybrid models, hopefully, might be able to work in sub-zero temperatures in the near future.
SMART GRIDS (电网) — Dynamic Electricity Management
AI-powered grids optimize energy use, storing surplus solar power during peak hours and reducing reliance on fossil-fuel backups.
SOLAR PANELS — Rooftop Revolution
Solar energy is the most accessible renewable source for households. Advances in photovoltaic cells have cut costs by 80% since 2010, making them viable in numerous regions.
WIND TURBINES — Community Microgrids
Small-scale turbines (涡轮机) in windy areas can power neighborhoods, though land use debates persist. “The scale of this transition is staggering,” says Dr. Elena Torres, a climate scientist at MIT. Residential renewables like solar and heat pumps could meet 90% of global household demand by 2050 — but only if investments triple within this decade. Recent studies show that every $1 invested in green homes today saves $5 in future climate adaptation costs. This isn’t just an environmental imperative; it’s economically inevitable.
21. Which two categories combined account for over three-quarters of total household emissions
A. Electricity and Heating. B. Heating and Cooling.
C. Appliances and Lighting. D. Cooling and Appliances.
22. Which technology is highlighted as cost-effective for diverse climates
A. Heat pumps. B. Smart grids. C. Solar panels. D. Wind turbines.
23. What does Dr. Torres emphasize about the energy transition
A. The dominance of gas boilers. B. The increase in solar efficiency.
C. The need for higher investment. D. The breakthrough in heat pump technology.
B
When my children were little, they happily went along on our travels. But around age 10, my son made it clear: “I don’t really like to travel.” It broke my heart.
My daughter caught the travel bug early, but my son showed little enthusiasm — whether in Barcelona, the Louvre, or even a trip to see white whales. Still, I kept pushing. Before my daughter left for college, I proposed one last family trip. The rest of the family voted for Egypt. My son suggested we stay home. I bribed (贿赂) him with more screen time, and he agreed.
Egypt turned out to be the destination that clicked. At the Grand Egyptian Museum, my son — who usually speedwalked through museums — stopped. He read the information cards and stayed over artifacts. My husband and I kept quiet, afraid to break the spell. At the Temple of Karnak, he listened attentively as our guide explained its history. At the Valley of the Kings, he stood fascinated in Tutankhamun’s burial tomb, recalling what he’d learned in ninth grade. Watching our son discover that maybe travel wasn’t so bad after all, I suddenly realized what had been wrong all along.
I had been dragging him through my version of travel — the Mona Lisa, Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter — experiences viewed through my camera. But my son needed something to attract him, a tale he could follow and historical contexts he could connect with what he’d learned.
Our Egypt trip taught me that not all kids love travel the same way. My daughter gets great pleasure from aesthetic (审美的) experiences; my son needs a connection he can make. I’m glad I let go of my own travel dreams long enough to figure out what might fuel my children’s curiosity. Egypt worked for my son because it is consistent with who he is as a learner at this moment in his life. Maybe your unwilling traveller doesn’t hate travel — they’re just waiting for you to help them find their version of it.
24. What did the author do to persuade her son to join the Egypt trip
A. She promised to buy him a gift.
B. She offered him extra screen time.
C. She let him choose the destination.
D. She told him about the white whales.
25. Why did the author and her husband keep quiet in the museum
A. They were too surprised to speak.
B. They feared to interrupt their son.
C. They were busy in taking pictures.
D. They wanted to focus on the guide.
26. What do we know about the author’s son
A. He was drawn to nature exploration.
B. He was fond of aesthetic experiences.
C. He enjoyed traveling without a set plan.
D. He was keen on trips linked to his learning.
27. What is the main lesson the author learned from the Egypt trip
A. Kids’ travel preference is changeable.
B. Parents can follow their own dreams.
C. Travel should be tailored to children.
D. Egypt is the best destination for kids.
C
Scientists at Finland’s Aalto University have found that using artificial intelligence (AI) almost removes and reverses (逆转)the Dunning-Kruger effect, a phenomenon that people who aren’t very good at a given task are overconfident, while people with high ability tend to underestimate their skills. Their research showed that when using common chatbots to solve problems, everyone (regardless of their skill level) tended to put too much faith in the quality of the answers, with the most experienced AI users doing so the most.
In the study, scientists gave 500 subjects logical reasoning tasks, with half allowed to use ChatGPT. Both groups were later quizzed on both their AI literacy and how well they thought they performed, and promised extra rewards if they assessed their own performance accurately.
The reasons behind the findings are varied. Because AI users were usually satisfied with their answer after only one question or prompt (提示), accepting the answer without further checking or confirmation, they can be said to have engaged in what Robin Welsch, an Aalto University computer scientist, calls “cognitive (认知) offloading” — exploring the question with reduced reflection, and approaching it in a more “shallow” way.
Such less engagement in our own reasoning means we bypass the usual feedback process of critical thinking, which reduces our ability to assess our performance accurately. Even more revealing was the fact that we all overestimate our abilities when using AI, regardless of our intelligence, with the gap between high-and low-skill users reducing. The study owed this to the fact that large language models (LLMs) help everyone perform better to some degree. Meanwhile, the Aalto team warned of several potential impacts as AI becomes more widespread.
Firstly, metacognitive accuracy overall might suffer. Without reflecting on results, error checking or deeper reasoning, we risk weakening our ability to source information reliably, the scientists said in the study. What’s more, the flattening of the Dunning-Kruger Effect will mean we’ll all continue to overestimate our abilities while using AI, with the more AI-literate among us doing so even more — leading to an increased climate of miscalculated decision-making and a drop in their skills.
28. What did Aalto University researchers discover about AI chatbot use
A. Low-ability users became less confident.
B. It strengthened the Dunning-Kruger Effect.
C. Users generally over-trusted the chatbot’s answers.
D. Only beginners often thought highly of their abilities.
29. Which aspect of the research is paragraph 2 mainly about
A. The purpose. B. The process. C. The subjects. D. The findings.
30. Why do the users often overestimate their abilities
A. LLMs’ aid improves users’ task performance.
B. Users often skip the process of critical thinking.
C. AI tools contribute to users’ metacognitive accuracy.
D. The gap between high-and low-skill AI users is bridged.
31. What will be probably talked about in the following paragraph
A. Regulations for narrowing AI users’ skill gap.
B. Guidelines for sourcing information reliably.
C. Methods for preventing users’ cognitive decline.
D. Tips for improving the subjects’ performance.
D
Cleaning up air pollution has saved millions of lives, yet it brings unexpected climate effects, a double-edged sword for humans.
Imagine in 2050, humans stop global warming by spraying reflective particles into the stratosphere. Temperatures stabilize at first. But once the project stops abruptly, the planet heats up rapidly, causing mass extinction of wildlife and social chaos. Such a disaster is called a “termination shock (终止冲击）” by climate scientists. Surprisingly, humans are undergoing a similar situation now.
Air pollution can cool the planet. Sulfur aerosols（含硫的气溶胶） reflect sunlight and make clouds whiter and denser, reducing the warming by about 0.5℃. However, global measures to improve air quality, such as cutting sulfur dioxide from power plants and ships, are removing these cooling aerosols, leading to faster global warming.
The consequences are very serious. Lightning over shipping lanes has decreased, while some areas suffer more powerful tropical cyclones and severe heatwaves. Interestingly, the original intention of taking these measures is to save lives, so some researchers regard the fast drop in aerosols as an “inadvertent termination shock” or “reverse geoengineering”.
The reduction of sulfur aerosols also harms marine ecosystems, such as threatening the Great Barrier Reef with coral bleaching. Besides, the weakening of Indian monsoon rainfall caused by air pollution may disappear once pollution controls tighten, bringing heavier floods.
Some experts suggest relaxing emission rules on the high seas to restore part of the cooling effect and slow down the speed of global warming. Nevertheless, others argue that this is not a real termination shock, which refers to a far more sudden and severe temperature rise.
Anyway, the lesson is clear: in our complex climate system, no decision is entirely risk-free.
32. What's the function of the example in Paragraph 2
A. To introduce a way for humans to stop global warming.
B. To show an unexpected human-caused climate effect.
C. To warn humans not to spray reflective particles.
D. To describe the possible life of humans in 2050.
33. What's the main idea of Paragraph 3
A. What can cool the planet effectively.
B. What impact air pollution has on the planet.
C. How global air quality can be improved.
D. How cleaner air affects global warming.
34. What does the underlined word “inadvertent” in Paragraph 4 mean
A. Active. B. Dangerous. C. Unintended. D. Serious.
35. What is the author's attitude towards the suggestions put forward by experts
A. Supportive. B. Opposed. C. Doubtful. D. Neutral.

When I was asked to take part in a forest bathing, I packed a swimsuit, assuming it must involve a refreshing swim in the water. ____36____
I met Forest Therapy (治疗) guide Melanic Choukas- Bradley and several other women who’d come along for the adventure at an urban forest. Here, I began to get it. Forest bathing isn’t a bath. We sat on the banks of the river, but we did not get in the water. ____37____ We did walk the forest tracks, but we wandered with no destination in mind.
The aim of forest bathing, Choukas-Bradley explained, is to slow down and become fully bathed in the natural environment. She helped us tune in to the forest’s smells, tastes and sights. ___38___ As we passed through the trees, we touched their trunks, feeling the roughness beneath our fingers. We smelled the flowers, each breath being a celebration of nature’s beauty.
There’s a growing body of evidence that shows forest bathing can help boost mood and reduce stress. ____39____ A 2011 study comparing city walks to forest walks found the forest environment led to greater reductions in blood pressure, despite both activities requiring equal physical effort.
____40____ Most of human history was spent in environments that lack buildings and walls, and our bodies have adapted to living in the natural world. But today most of us spend much of our life indoors. Perhaps the new forest bathing trend is a recognition that many of us need a little nudge to get back out there.
A. It’s not a hike, either.
B. It turns out that my interpretation was literal.
C. The benefits of nature can be accessed simply.
D. Forest bathing frees us from worldly engagements.
E. The idea that spending time in nature is good is not new.
F. Indeed, medical researchers have demonstrated its benefits.
G. We took in the peaceful surroundings by using all our senses.

67. 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。
Milo knew his mother’s birthday was approaching and he decided to give his mother a surprise — a perfect gift. One day, Milo saw a beautiful woollen scarf in a shop window. It was soft and warm, with colors that reminded him of a sunset. His heart beat faster. But the price was far more than he could afford.
His mother, Angie, was the heart of the family — always kind, always gentle. From morning until night, she was busy with housework, cooking meals and washing clothes for them. She never complained.
Thinking of this, Milo walked into the shop. “How much is the scarf in the window ” he asked quietly.
The shopkeeper smiled. “Thirty-six dollars.”
Milo made up his mind. He would earn the money himself and surprise his mother. But how could he earn so much money
Down the street, he noticed a sign in the Rodriguez family’s window: “Dog Walker Wanted.” It suddenly struck him that maybe he could have a try.
He knocked, and Mrs. Rodriguez opened the door. A small brown dog barked happily behind her. “His name is Chico,” she said with a smile. “He needs a walk every afternoon at four. I’ll pay you two dollars a day.” Milo agreed without hesitation.
Every day after school, rain or shine, Milo walked Chico. On weekends, he checked in with Mrs. Rodriguez again. She had more jobs for him — weeding her garden, sweeping her porch (门廊), and washing her windows. Sometimes he spent all Saturday morning there. His arms grew sore, and his knees got dirty, but he never complained.
Each evening, Milo came home and dropped his earnings into an empty tin can (金属罐) hidden under his bed. He listened to the coins hit the metal — a sound that brought him joy and hope.
注意：1. 续写词数应为 150 左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Weeks passed, and the tin can grew heavier and heavier.

That evening, Milo couldn’t wait to show his mother the box.
