【答案】 Paul’s teammates in the boat saw what had happened. Without a moment’s hesitation, they sprang into action, shouting and throwing anything they could find at the shark to distract it. Their voices were filled with urgency and fear, but also a fierce determination to save their friend. The shark, momentarily startled, released Paul, who then surfaced, gasping for air and covered in blood. His teammates quickly pulled him into the boat, their hands steady despite the trembling in their hearts, and immediately called for emergency assistance.
As they approached the shore, an ambulance was already waiting there. The doctors rushed forward, their faces set in grim determination as they assessed Paul’s injuries. With practiced efficiency, they stabilized him and prepared him for transport to the hospital. Paul, though weak and in shock, managed a small smile for his teammates, gratitude shining in his eyes. As the ambulance sped away, sirens wailing, Paul’s teammates stood on the dock, watching until it disappeared from sight, praying for his swift recovery and vowing to support him through this ordeal.2025-2026学年重庆市巴蜀教育集团高二下学期5月期中英语试题

A
For the 12th year, a group of engineering students and faculty at Purdue reviewed STEM-based toys and selected a group of them to recommend as holiday gifts.
As usual, this year, the team also took the question straight to the source: elementary school classrooms. They brought the toys to classrooms for children to engage with and rate.
Hello Ruby: Journey Inside the Computer Ages 6 and up Red-haired Ruby takes a trip into a computer and teaches kids about things like the central processing unit (CPU), bits and logic gates along the way. This picture book is perfect for a classroom or as a bedtime tale, as it combines “an adventure story” with a deep dive into how computers work.
Pro-Bot Ages 7 and up First, you program the car to move, then you can add more advanced components, like lights, sounds and interactivity. When the team brought the toy to classrooms, students’ favorite component was the ability to insert a marker into the car so it could draw its path.
My Robotic Pet: Coding Chameleon Ages 8 and up Kids build, program and bring to life this toy, which in its final form is a 15-inch-long chameleon (变色龙) that lights up, moves around and sticks its tongue out. Instructional coding cards guide users in programming different lifelike behaviors. Having a tangible result to developing coding skills made the Coding Chameleon a biggest hit in classrooms.
Chibitronics: LED Circuit Sticker Kits Ages 8-13; ages 14 and up Two separate kits cater to two age ranges. Both kits use LED stickers and conductive tape to teach kids about how electricity flows while creating artwork. The kits feel like an exciting version of old sticker books where you’d turn a page and there’d be a connect-the-dots game, and then another page would have another activity.
1. Where were the toys rated
A. In classrooms. B. In the lab. C. In the university. D. In toy shops.
2. Which toy was the most popular
A. Hello Ruby. B. Pro-bot C. My Robotic Pet D. Chibitronics.
3. How is Chibitronics different from the other toys
A. It comes in different versions. B. It teaches basic STEM concepts.
C. It needs programming before use. D. It accepts extra advanced components.
B
Pablo Picasso was an unknown artist when he arrived in Paris in 1900. The owner of a small Parisian art gallery was struck by his paintings, buying three of them for 100 francs. Berthe Weill later said that she made a swift profit by reselling them for 150 francs.
Picasso was not the only artist discovered by Weill. She was also the first dealer to sell a Henri Matisse painting and she organised the only exhibition of works by Amedeo Modigliani.
Weill, born in 1865, had a fascination for art and a determination to challenge established habits. Her initial gallery in Pigalle, then Paris, is said to be the first to feature only emerging artists. “Place aux Jeunes (Make Way for the Young),” read her business card. Her first shop was an antique store operated with her brother. In 1901, she set up the Gallery B Weill, using her initials (姓名首字母) rather than her full first name.
Weill started buying Matisse’s paintings in the early 1900s when he was little known and struggling to make a living. In his room with just enough space for a bed, he showed her his works. “Quality still lives,” she remembered. “I have taken a few to try to interest people.” She sold her first Matisse in 1902 for 130 francs. He got 110 francs. The painter’s works now sell for tens of millions.
In 1917, Weill organised the first Modigliani exhibition in Paris, featuring 32 of his bold works. There was a protest, prompting the police to order her to “get rid of the rubbish”. Not surprisingly, the exhibition was a flop. But Weill bought five of the works, one of which sold for $170.4 million in New York in 2015.
The Orangerie Museum in Paris recently held an exhibition “to give her back the place she deserves”. It featured about 100 works by the artists promoted by Weill while also highlighting the discrimination she faced as a woman in a male-dominated art world.
4. Why did Berthe Weill use her initials for the gallery
A. To follow the trend at that time.
B. To please her business partners.
C. To make the name more appealing.
D. To hide her identity as a woman.
5. What does the underlined word “flop” in paragraph 5 probably mean
A. Success. B. Failure. C. Reward. D. Trick.
6. Which of the following best describes Berthe Weill
A. Visionary. B. Determined. C. Organized. D. Imaginative.
7. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Discrimination in the Art Business.
B. Emerging Artists of the 20th Century.
C. An Unsung Heroine of the Art World
D. The Discovery of the Most-valued Paintings.
C
We’ve had e-books, audiobooks, and of course good old-fashioned printed books – but could there be another way to read So-called “augmented reality books” — or “a-books” by their creators – are closer to mass-market production after a six-year project by researchers at the University of Surrey.
E-book readers can access background information and extra features, but a-books would allow users to swipe their fingers across a line in a printed book and have related content flash up on their digital devices. A reader could, for example, run their finger over a character’s name to get their backstory to pop up on their phone, or get a reminder of the storylines of previous books in a series.
While these features are commonly available for e-books, the challenge has been finding a way to adapt the technology for a physical book “without ruining the experience of reading a paper book”, said Sporea, the lead researcher. “Books have lots of appeal for what we might call their ‘bookness’, the fact they’re on paper and you handle them a certain way,” he said.
The research team has just launched its third generation of the a-book, having experimented with a number of techniques, including the use of inks that react to light and activate when you turn a page. That method proved not to be possible outside a lab because “there’s not enough protection from oxygen and moisture (湿度) in the atmosphere,” Sporea said. The latest solution is to place ultra-thin solar panels between two halves of a single sheet of paper, which “awakens” the a-book’s special properties when a “magic bookmark” is laid on to a page.
The team are now working to develop the paper so that it feels less “unwieldy and thick”, Sporea said. The project has so far been helped with a $900,000 of government funding and the team is hoping to get book industry interest to help further develop and refine the technology.
8. What are ideal a-books like
A. They are connected to digital devices.
B. They keep the feel of physical books.
C. They provide access to extra information.
D. They remind readers of previous plots.
9. What is the main challenge in adapting technology for a-books
A. Boosting energy-efficiency. B. Obtaining government funding.
C. Reducing the cost of production. D. Finding the appropriate materials.
10. What is the function of a “magic bookmark”
A. To protect the solar panels. B. To mark the favorite parts.
C. To activate the extra features. D. To sense the human touch.
11. What is the main idea of the text
A. Funding matters to technology.
B. E-books are becoming outdated.
C. Printed books are still in favor.
D. A-books are closer to the market.
D
Transport companies have tried various ways of encouraging courtesy during the rush hour, and researchers may have found the most effective yet.
Prosocial behavior, or the act of helping others, is key to city life. But as Francesco Pagnini, a professor of clinical psychology at the Universita Cattolica noted: “The environmental factors that trigger (触发) such behavior remain little explored.” Therefore, he led a study to examine whether unexpected events might inspire commuters to behave more generously.
His team took to the Milan subway where they boarded rush hour trains 140 times. First, a woman who appeared to be heavily pregnant entered a busy carriage. The team recorded whether anyone gave up a seat. They then repeated this process, but with a twist: Another member of the research team, dressed as Batman, entered the carriage from another door of the train.
The results were dramatic. In the presence of Batman, passengers were much more likely to offer their seat: 67 per cent did so, compared with just 38 per cent when Batman was absent. The Batman costume may have motivated passengers to do the “right” thing. Psychologists call this “priming”. Interestingly, nearly half of the generous commuters later said that they had not spotted the superhero.
However, this perspective comes with a warning: attempts to imitate famous studies that claimed to show priming in action have failed, leading researchers to doubt whether it really happens at all. For that reason, Pagnini leans towards another possible interpretation: that the sight of Batman broke commuters out of their routines, allowing them to pay more attention to their surroundings and, with it, the needs of others. Even though many of the helpful passengers claimed not to have noticed Batman at all, vigilance is thought to be infectious. When some individuals become more alert, others follow without quite knowing why. The effect might therefore ripple through a carriage, causing people to act more considerately, which means the Batman effect might not have depended on Batman at all.
12. What was the main focus of Pagnini’s study in Milan
A. Behavioral difference across cities. B. Daily routines of commuters.
C. Effectiveness of courtesy campaigns. D. Impact of novelty on kindness.
13. What can we know about the study
A. It involved repeated trials. B. It employed a team of Batmen.
C. It drew attention across the train. D. It confirmed priming theories.
14. Which of the following can be called “priming”
A. Sweet taste increasing hunger. B. Crying faces boosting mood.
C. Bright lights improving vision. D. Holiday music increasing gift sales.
15. What is the main idea of the last paragraph
A. Doubts about famous studies. B. Effects of infectious behaviors.
C. A different explanation for results. D. An advance warning about failure.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
We are often led to believe that nothing is ever enough in life. ____16____. That persistent focus on what you lack is called a scarcity mindset, a negative mental state that fosters pessimism, competitiveness, and a sense of falling behind.
One trendy opposite to the scarcity mindset is the “abundance mindset.” ____17____. Wishful thinking — that if you just believe you have money, it’ll appear in your hands — can be equally unhelpful. Instead, breaking free from a scarcity mindset is surprisingly simple.
Start by practicing gratitude — being more intentional about noticing the good things you already have, whether it’s a supportive friend, a cozy apartment, or even upcoming holiday plans with family.
You can also challenge scarcity mindset thoughts (“I’ll never make enough money,” or “I’ll never have enough time”) with logic. Write down examples of when you got a promotion, say, or finished a big project ahead of schedule. Reflecting on these moments can remind you that your scarcity thinking isn’t always accurate.____18____.
____19____. That means redirecting energy from complaints and actions: If you’re feeling stuck professionally, for instance, make it your objective to update your resume or network with at least one new contact each week. If it’s your dating life that feels stalled, maybe it’s time to try a new app or reevaluate that toxic relationship that’s holding you back.
A scarcity mindset doesn’t have to define your life. ____20____, your world should feel fuller, brighter, and far less restricting.
A. And it always works
B. Due to your impatience
C. With these little, intentional shifts
D. Adopt a goal-oriented perspective
E. Yet blind optimism isn’t realistic for most
F. Ultimately, carry out your duties with professionalism
G. Not enough hours in the day or money in our bank accounts

The sun had just risen, casting a golden glow over the peaceful waters of Sydney Harbor. Paul, a 30-something member of the Australian Navy, was taking part in a training in the harbor with his teammates. What started as an ordinary morning, was about to turn into a life-altering nightmare.
Paul was in the water, fully focused on the exercise, when he suddenly felt a powerful bang on the back of his leg. At first, he thought it was just a small accident and paid it little attention. But when he turned around, a chill ran down his spine. A massive shark was staring right at him, its eyes brimming with a predatory glint. This was Paul’s worst nightmare come to life, as he had never come face-to-face with a shark before.
In a flash, the shark lunged forward and, in a single, fierce bite, grabbed Paul’s right hand and the back of his right leg. It dragged him underwater, thrashing him around like a rag doll. Paul tried to fight back, but with the shark holding his hand tightly, he was completely powerless. His left hand couldn’t reach the shark’s eye, and when he tried to beat it in the nose, the shark just shook him violently. The pain was so intense that it seemed to consume his entire body, and he could feel his strength draining away.
As he was being tossed around underwater, Paul was in intolerable pain and struggling to breathe. He thought to himself that this was the end, that he would never return home. The shark still circled below, its shadow looming large beneath him, as if waiting for the perfect moment to strike again.
注意：
1．续写词数应为150左右；
