Dear Alex,
I hope you are doing well. I am writing to thank you for your mental health lesson last Friday, which was so interesting and meaningful. It helped me understand the importance of taking care of our mental well-being.
It was from your lesson that I learned it is normal to experience pressure in daily life. Thanks to your advice, such as sharing our feelings with friends and developing healthy habits, I now know how to deal with stress. I also enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere during the lesson, in which we felt encouraged and understood.
For future classes like this one, I hope we can have more discussions so that everyone can share their practical ways to manage negative emotions.
Thank you again for the wonderful time! I can’t wait for your next class.
Yours,
Li Hua

Gathering courage, Mark announced, “I don’t want to play basketball anymore.” The smiles on his parents’ faces froze instantly. “What do you mean ” his father asked in surprise. Taking a deep breath, Mark explained that his true passion was cheerleading although he was good at basketball. The room fell silent. His parents exchanged confused looks, struggling to understand. Mark felt his heart pounding but continued, saying he had been training for months. Just when the tension seemed unbearable, his mother finally spoke gently, “If this is what you really love, you deserve a chance — and we’ll always stand by you.” His father hesitated, then nodded slowly.
A week later, it was time for the cheerleader audition. Standing on the field, Mark felt a mix of nervousness and excitement. Remembering the countless hours of practice, he pushed aside his doubts and focused on every move. When the music started, he jumped, turned and lifted with confidence. His strength and determination impressed the judges and the crowd. When the results were announced, Mark heard his name among those selected. At that moment, he spotted his parents in the stands, clapping proudly. He realized that by following his heart, he had finally stepped out of his brother’s shadow and started his own journey.福建省泉州四校2025-2026学年高二下学期期中联考英语试题

Li Junyong, a 48-year-old street vendor (摊贩) who has been nicknamed “chicken steak brother”, has been famous overnight and become an attraction in Jingdezhen, Jiangxi province. His humorous interactions with tourists, such as, “You can refuse me, but not my chicken steak.” and “You deserve everything beautiful in the world, including my chicken steak.”, has turned the city into a popular destination over the past several months.
Li has lived in Jingdezhen for 42 years, and he has been selling chicken steaks near a local middle school for years. His stand opens after 4:30 p.m. daily, and many people wait in line to taste his fried chicken. During peak times, customers even have to stand in line for 4 hours to get his chickens. Due to high demand, he now limits each customer to two servings.
The popularity of Li and his street stand has helped to boost the growth of tourism in Jingdezhen, a city known for its ceramic (陶瓷) products. Figures from Douyin, the Chinese version of TikTok, showed that bookings related to Jingdezhen had increased nearly 70 percent on the platform in the first three days of the eight-day holiday. Travel portal Qunar also proved the sales power of “chicken steak brother”. Figures on Oct 1, the first day of the holiday, showed that the sale of Jingdezhen’s hotels grew 30 percent compared with the same period last year.
It’s not the first time that small cities have become an instant hit during public holidays, such as Zibo in Shandong province, which went viral among tourists because of the city’s delicious barbecue, as more Chinese travelers have shown an increasing interest in exploring niche destinations in order to avoid huge crowds of people.
“China’s tourism market is in varied development.” said Wei Changren, founder of , a tourism-related financial news website. Noting the great popularity of Jingdezhen and “chicken steak brother”, Wei said that the sudden online hit will definitely drive the growth of the local tourism market, while it’s necessary for the local governments to catch the opportunity to improve their tourism products and services to turn the short-lived traffic into long-term tourism growth.
24. What has made Jingdezhen a popular attraction recently
A. The delicious chicken steaks. B. Chicken steak brother’s humor.
C. The support of local tourism department. D. The fast spread of today’s media platforms.
25. The underlined word “niche” in Paragraph 4 probably means “________”.

A. The popularity of Jingdezhen is expected to last forever.
B. Jingdezhen should focus on developing street vendor industry.
C. Local markets should raise the quality of their products and services.
D. Local government should make use of the popularity to improve tourism.

In a recent public event in Hong Kong, sign language interpreter Wanzy Lo introduced herself with a distinctive gesture: three fingers placed horizontally (横着地) on her cheek. This was not merely a symbol for a cat lover and also forms the letter “W” for her name. This creative mix gives her a unique sign name in the world of sign language.
Lo, Sign Language Officer of the Hong Kong Society for the Deaf, participated in teaching the public to create their own names in sign language during an activity to promote the communication method late last month. She believes sign language is about sharing the full meaning and feelings behind the words to help the deaf audience understand and connect. This skill was key when she interpreted for the Hong Kong Film Awards, a live show. “Film is an art,” Lo says. “So, our work must also be artistic, sharing not just words but the emotions in them.” During songs and moving speeches, she used stronger facial expressions to pull the audience into the moment.
The demand for such skilled interpreters is rapidly growing. Apart from cultural events, sign language is now also used in important government meetings. The role is exceptionally challenging, requiring quick thinking, vast general knowledge, and the ability to perform under the pressure of live television. However, there are not enough interpreters. Currently, there are only just over 50 qualified interpreters in Hong Kong to serve a substantial community, a number that highlights the serious shortage of workers.
Timmy Chan, head of the Sign Language Center of the Hong Kong Society for the Deaf, says, “Sign language interpreters are an important bridge between people with hearing loss and the outside world.” And he hopes that more people will join the ranks of sign language interpretation so that those with hearing disabilities can benefit.
28. How did Wanzy Lo create her sign name
A. By copying the sign for “cat” directly. B. By letting the public choose it for her.
C. By mixing a personal interest with a letter. D. By following the standard naming rules.
29. Why does Lo use stronger facial expressions while interpreting
A. To make the performance more amusing.
B. To communicate emotions more effectively.
C. To meet the requirements of the film directors.
D. To show the difficulty of live TV interpretation.
30. Which best describes the job of a sign language interpreter
A. Boring. B. Well- paid. C. Demanding. D. Dangerous.
31. What is the text mainly about
A. The high demand for sign language interpretation in HK.
B. The technical skills required to become an interpreter in HK.
C. The life story of a successful sign language interpreter in HK.
D. The value and challenges of sign language interpretation in HK.
D
On Oct.6, three scientists were awarded the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. They discovered how the body stops its own immune system from turning against itself, a process vital for preventing autoimmune (自身免疫性) diseases.
The immune system performs a remarkable balancing act. On a daily basis, it must accurately identify and destroy a great many foreign invaders like viruses and bacteria, many of which have gradually developed into what look like our own cells. The critical question was: what system ensures this defense force does not harm the body it is meant to protect
For a long time, the thymus (胸腺), a small organ in the chest, was considered the central area for establishing “immune tolerance.” It was thought to remove attacking cells during early development. However, this theory could not fully explain the body’s continuous self-control.
The revolutionary change began with the work of Japanese scientist Shimon Sakaguchi. Through a series of innovative experiments on newborn mice in the 1980s and 1990s, he made an unexpected discovery that removing the thymus led to autoimmune disorders, suggesting that the organ was not just removing harmful cells but was also the source of specialized protective cells. After a decade of strict investigation, Sakaguchi definitively identified a new class of cells in 1995, which he named “T-reggs”.
In the beginning, the scientific community met this discovery with a lot of doubt, since the existence of these “peacekeeper” cells was a completely new idea. The crucial confirmation came from the work of American scientists Mary Brunkow and Fred Ramsdell. Their research in the late 1990s and early 2000s detailed the precise systems: T-reggs either produce calming proteins or deliver direct signals to take control of other attacking immune cells. Furthermore, they identified a specific protein called FoxP3, which acts as a key switch for T-reg function, providing a clear marker for their study.
The discoveries of these three scientists have proved that immunity is not merely an attacking force but is under constant, active control. This essential knowledge has opened up new roads for treating autoimmune conditions, improving organ transplant capacity, and even developing more effective cancer treatments, showcasing the significant impact of understanding the body’s internal safeguards.
32. What does “immune tolerance” in paragraph 3 refer to
A. The process of avoiding self-attack.
B. The function in producing immune cells.
C. The ability to destroy viruses and bacteria.
D. The tendency of losing continuous self-control.
33. What can be inferred from Sakaguchi’s experiment
A. The result was immediately accepted.
B. The thymus failed to remove harmful cells.
C. T-reggs were confirmed to produce calming proteins.
D. The thymus had a previously unknown protective function.
34. What is mainly mentioned about the discovery in the last paragraph
A. Its remaining challenges. B. Its impact on our body.
C. Its wide applications in medicine. D. Its success in curing illnesses.
35. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage
A. T-reggs: Body’s Peacekeepers. B. Thymus: Centre of Creating Cells.
C. Side Effects of the Immune System. D. Fight Against Autoimmune Diseases.

Beat the heat — How to stay cool when temperatures soar
Maybe you’re one of those people who peel off a sweater when everyone else is complaining that it’s chilly. ____36____ The point is, there’s no single temperature that can be pinpointed (明确指出) as comfortable for everyone.
“What temperature people start to become uncomfortable at is really individual and variable,” says S. Tony Wolf, PhD, assistant professor at the University of Georgia. ____37____ It also relies on things like humidity and air flow. Plus, combinations of factors unique to individuals — age, gender, body mass, medical conditions and medications — affect how we experience temperature. And fortunately, there are many things we can do to stay comfortable in spite of the heat.
____38____ “Sweating is how we regulate heat,” says Robert Kenefick, PhD, professor at the University of Massachusetts. “Drinking plain, cool water or fluids with electrolytes (like sports drinks) helps.”
Choose clothing that’s right — light fabrics, light colors — and loose. Loose clothing allows for better airflow and helps keep you cool. ____39____
Keep windows covered with shades, blinds or curtains. Think of how a car with closed windows heats up when left sitting in sunlight — it’s called the greenhouse effect. The same thing can happen at home if uncovered windows trap sunlight and heat inside.
Keep a spray bottle handy. Spraying yourself with cool or cold water and then sitting or standing near a fan can help your body evaporate (蒸发) sweat and dissipate (消散) heat through your skin. ____40____ “The more of your body surface areas that you cool, the better off you're going to be,” says Wolf.
A. Drink plenty of water.
B. If you are really hot, take a cold bath or shower.
C. Use fans to keep the air constantly flowing indoors.
D. Go out earlier in the day when it’s cooler or later at night.
E. But workout clothing made from new fabrics is also a good choice.
F. In fact, our perception of heat and cold doesn’t just depend on the temperature.
G. Or maybe you’re the person who’s putting on a sweater when others say it’s too hot.

I was 24 when I began to feel I needed a ____47____. Even if it meant starting from the very beginning, I decided I would turn my ____48____ into a career. Somehow, I would become a fish scientist.
After ____49____ a science-based graduation certificate for adults, I started a biology degree at university, ____50____ myself with money I had saved while working. ____51____ I got into a master’s program in ecological engineering and biodiversity management.

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。
Sweat poured down Mark’s face. He had just finished trying out for Oakwood High School’s basketball team, and he knew making it to the team was a pretty sure thing. After all, he wasn’t just good — he was excellent.
Basketball ran in the family — his older brother Reggie was now playing at a top college, and Mark was expected to follow in his brother’s footsteps. But Mark had a secret: his heart was in another sport.
Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Mark jumped on a bus heading home. Through the window, his eyes were drawn to the field where cheerleaders (啦啦队)danced effortlessly. He couldn’t look away. For months now, cheerleading had been on his mind. Reaching into his bookbag, he pulled out a poster: CHEERLEADER AUDITIONS (选拔). This was what he really wanted.
Mark knew pursuing cheerleading wouldn’t just be a physical challenge. His family had poured so much hope into his basketball future. But he was tired of living in his brother’s shadow. He was ready to carve his own path.
Six months ago, Mark once told his best friend Darren about his dream. “Cheerleading is girly,” Darren said. “You’re so good at basketball. Why throw that away ” Mark stood his ground. “This is where I want to put my strength,” he insisted. Over time, Darren began to understand and support him. Still, Mark kept his passion hidden from his family.
Secretly, Mark trained with two cheerleaders. Cheerleading didn’t come naturally — every move demanded more than basketball ever had. But month by month, he improved. Maybe, just maybe, he stood a chance of making it to the cheerleading team. But right now, after his basketball tryout, he had to face his family.
As soon as Mark arrived home, his parents were at the door.
“So… ” his father asked.
“The tryout It went well.” Mark replied, staring at his feet. Everyone in the family was smiling…except Mark. Still, he knew what had to be done.
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。
Gathering courage, Mark announced, “I don’t want to play basketball anymore.”
