Hosted by the Student Union, it aimed to raise students’ awareness of scientific diets and reduce their over-reliance on takeout food.A variety of educational activities were organized during the event. First, a professional lecture revealed the potential health risks of takeout, such as excessive oil and harmful food additives. Besides, a poster exhibition was held to highlight the importance of balanced diets. Meanwhile, students shared useful eating tips and communicated actively with each other.The campaign has gained widespread popularity among teachers and students. It has greatly corrected students’ inappropriate eating concepts and helped them develop healthy dietary habits. Furthermore, it has created a positive campus atmosphere and encouraged students to stick to healthy lifestyles in the long run.【答案】范文I forced myself to open the library door and walked inside. In a meeting room, ten of us sat nervously to make a self-introduction. When my turn came and I said, “I’m Lisa. I don’t read so well.” The words hung in the air for a moment, but no one laughed. A kind volunteer walked to me, “that’s why we’re here.” Then, she handed out simple worksheets and explained how letter sounds work. She read a word, and we repeated. The letters and sounds that had once felt like a foreign language began to make sense. I could see how it all worked together!For the first time in my life, I thought I could do this. Two evenings a week, I went to practise reading at the Community Literacy Center for three years. It was slow, and sometimes frustrating, but I didn’t give up, because all the volunteers there made me feel capable and valued. Today, I start reading books though there are still words that trip me up and sentences I struggle with. But I’m not afraid to ask for help anymore. I don’t need to have all the answers. I just know that I am no longer stuck, and that is a new beginning.重庆名校联考2025-2026学年高二下学期英语期末试卷考试说明：1. 考试时间120分钟2. 试题总分150分3. 试卷页数10页第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分）听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。1.

He doesn’t wear suits like a Wall Street chairman; instead, he wears his now-iconic leather jackets and polo shirts.Born in Taiwan, China, in 1963, Jensen Huang moved to the United States with his family at a young age to escape regional conflicts. Though he struggled with English and suffered from bullying at school, he remained strong-willed and focused on his studies. He later earned a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from Oregon State University and a master’s degree from Stanford University. Before founding his own company, he gained valuable work experience at AMD and LSI Logic, laying a solid foundation for his future career.In 1993, Huang co-founded NVIDIA in a Denny’s restaurant with just $40,000 in start-up capital. The young company once faced a deadly crisis due to a wrong technical design, but Huang showed great courage and wisdom. He cut the workforce, invested all remaining funds in a risky technological transformation, and finally saved the company with the successful launch of the RIVA 128 chip. To keep the team alert, he often emphasized, “NVIDIA was still 30 days from going out of business”, which has become a vital part of the corporate culture.Huang’s remarkable vision led to the invention of the GPU, once considered an impractical idea. He also launched CUDA, a platform that enables GPUs to power artificial intelligence effectively. As the AI era boomed, NVIDIA quickly took the leading position in global AI hardware supply and grew into a trillion-dollar company.Huang believes in innovation, resilience and the courage to challenge the impossible. With his exceptional leadership and long-term vision, Jensen Huang has led NVIDIA to become the core driving force of the digital transformation.4. What can we know about Jensen Huang from the first paragraphA. He prefers formal business suits at work. B. He dresses in a casual and distinctive way.C. He behaves just like a Wall Street chairman. D. He is often considered fashionable in high tech.5. Which of the following best describes Huang’s early life and growthA. Busy and stressful. B. Stable but unproductive.C. Smooth and trouble-free. D. Challenging but rewarding.6. What does “NVIDIA was 30 days from going out of business” in paragraph 3 suggestA. Huang wanted to push his staff to stay focused and diligent.B. Huang was worried the company would fail within a month.C. Huang believed the industry was dangerous for new companies.D. Huang was afraid that the company would run out of money soon.7. What is the passage mainly aboutA. Huang’s early life and educational background.B. The hardships Huang experienced and how he survived.C. Huang’s personal growth and his efforts to build NVIDIA.D. The development of GPU technology and its wide applications.CSleep apnea (睡眠呼吸暂停) is a common yet potentially life-threatening breathing disorder that affects millions worldwide. While often dismissed as mere snoring (打鼾), this condition goes far beyond an annoyance, with serious health consequences that demand attention and action.Obstructive (阻塞性的) sleep apnea (OSA), the most common form, occurs when throat muscles relax excessively during sleep, causing the airway to narrow or close. This leads to repeated pauses in breathing, shallow breaths, and loud snoring, cutting off oxygen to the brain and breaking good sleep patterns. Untreated OSA is linked to a weakened immune system, mood disorders, and an increased risk of cardiovascular (心血管的) events.Diagnosis typically involves a sleep study to monitor breathing and vital signs overnight. For mild cases, lifestyle changes like weight loss, quitting smoking, and side-sleeping can reduce symptoms. For moderate to severe cases, continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machines remain the gold standard, using a mask to deliver steady air pressure and keep the airway open. However, some patients struggle with CPAP use, leading to the use of oral appliances fitted by dentists to reposition the jaw. When these methods fail, surgical interventions may be considered as a last choice.Excitingly, new treatment options are emerging. Recent research found that the weight loss drug “Tirzepatide” shows promise in reducing OSA severity. Additional trials are exploring other medicines and devices designed to strengthen tongue muscles during the day, improving nighttime airway stability.In conclusion, sleep apnea is far more than just snoring— it is a serious health issue with multiple treatments. With growing awareness, improved diagnostic tools, and innovative therapies, no one needs to suffer the consequences of untreated sleep apnea. Seeking timely medical advice can help individuals enjoy a sound sleep and safeguard their long-term health.8. What does the underlined word “dismissed” mean in paragraph 1A. submitted B. discussed C. overlooked D. rejected9. What is the primary cause of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)A. Weakened immune system. B. Lack of brain oxygen supply.C. Repeated pauses in breathing. D. Over relaxation of throat muscles.10. Which statement is true about CPAP machinesA. They prove difficult for some patients to use.B. They are the primary treatment for mild OSA.C. They are universally effective for all OSA patients.D. They work by stimulating tongue muscles during the day.11. What do we know about the new treatments for OSAA. They aim to exercise tongue muscles. B. They have cured many patients of OSA.C. They focus on improving daytime breathing. D. They are limited to the use of new medicines.DFor the first time in 10 years, a potentially super El Ni o is approaching, likely pushing global temperatures to record highs. This rare climate phenomenon has scientists on high alert, for its effects may reshape weather patterns around the world.El Ni o is a natural climate pattern driven by interactions between the ocean and atmosphere in the tropical Pacific. Normally, trade winds (信风) blow from east to west, pushing warm surface water toward Asia and Australia, while cold water rises to the surface along the coast of South America. During El Ni o, these winds weaken or reverse, allowing warm water to flow back across the Pacific, raising sea surface temperatures and disturbing weather systems globally. A “super El Ni o” is defined as sea surface temperatures in the central Pacific rising 2℃ or more above the long-term average, a threshold (临界值) reached only three times since 1980. These events are among the most powerful natural climate factors known to science.Recent weather models paint a concerning picture. The European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) gives a roughly 50% chance of reaching the 2.5℃ threshold by October, while the US National Weather Service forecasts a 25% chance of a super El Ni o by the end of the year. If even two of the major models predicting abnormal temperature rises above 3°C by September prove accurate, it will be the strongest El Ni o ever recorded, with far-reaching consequences for every continent.While El Ni o events themselves are not becoming more frequent, rising global temperatures intensify their effects, making droughts drier, floods wetter, and heatwaves hotter. “If climate change is an incoming tide, gradually raising temperatures, then El Ni o is like a giant wave that temporarily boosts them even more,” explains Tim Stockdale at the ECMWF.12. What is the purpose of the first paragraphA. To describe past El Ni o events across the world.B. To explain how a super El Ni o comes into being.C. To stress the severity of the upcoming super El Ni o.D. To introduce a record-breaking climate phenomenon.13. What can we learn about Super El Ni o from Paragraph 2A. It occurs every ten years on average.B. It is caused by rising global temperatures.C. It has little impact on global weather patterns.D. It is defined as a specific rise in sea surface temperature.14. What does Tim Stockdale say about El Ni oA. It acts like a tide in raising the global temperatures.B. It is becoming more frequent due to climate change.C. It causes a temporary but sharp rise in temperatures.D. It is the main cause of global warming in recent years.15. What is the best title for the textA. Super El Ni o: A Global Weather Pattern B. Super El Ni o: A Coming Climate ThreatC. Super El Ni o: A Cause of Ocean Warming D. Super El Ni o: An Unpredictable Phenomenon第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。World-Class Performers Are Often Late BloomersWhat does it take to become the best at something ___16___ Instead, the path to becoming exceptional might involve a lot more twists and turns and even temporary failures along the way.Recent research published in Science challenges the famous “10,000-hour rule.” This rule suggests that spending 10,000 hours in deliberate practice on a single skill is the key to reaching full mastery. People have long believed early talent and endless practice determine one’s ultimate success. ___17___The researchers highlight that children who stood out and showed great talent at an early age seldom become world-class masters when they grow up. ___18___ In sports, for instance, world-class athletes peak later than national-class athletes. Those who peak early reach a level that is the best for their age but that isn’t as high as what the other group will eventually achieve when older.___19___ They might be biased toward directing resources at the kids who show the most promise in a given field early on, but those children might not be the ones with the most potential to reach a world-class level. To help children to be the top performers, they need to focus on long-term growth rather than early talent and offer consistent support.The research holds a message, too, for people who want to pursue a skill or dream but didn’t win their school competition or make it to the top of their youth league: do not despair. ___20___ Most world-class performers didn’t stand out early, either.A. That’s a long journey.B. You are in good company.C. The findings emphasize that people change.D. The findings matter for institutions and coaches.E. Instead, top adult performers are mostly “late bloomers”.F. The answer may not lie in early childhood excellence or lifelong dedication.G. However, the study found that world-class performers often do not follow this pattern.第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空内处的最佳选项。I was at a medical clinic with my father when an elderly woman arrived.

I would have been thrilled to get one of these jobs, but something was holding me back — reading.Reading had always been a struggle. Short and basic sentences were okay, but more than that was beyond me. Spelling was a nightmare. For office jobs, they wanted someone fast, accurate and smart. Not me.I glared at the job listings and got lost. I was 45 years old, and my life was going nowhere. No one except my husband, Terry, knew the difficulty I had with reading, and even he didn’t know the extent of it. I had developed kinds of tricks to hide my problem — pretending I’d forgotten my glasses, letting him read a form for me.One day Terry found my grocery list on the table. “This isn’t how you spell hamburger”, he said. The shame weighed on me and there was no way to avoid the truth. “I wasn’t good at reading.” I told him. Terry wasn’t upset. He held me tight.I was too ashamed. I couldn’t imagine letting strangers know my secret. But I didn’t want to give up. I wanted to work. I wanted to learn.Then one day, almost unconsciously, I typed learning to read into Google. An advertisement popped up — volunteers at the Community Literacy Center will be patient enough to teach every adult who wants to read.I told Terry about it. “You should try it,” he said. “but no matter what, I’ll always love you.”A week later, I drove to the library for the first meeting. I sat in the car, afraid to go in. Was I really ready to let strangers know my secretI forced myself to open the library door and walked inside.____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________For the first time in my life, I thought I could do this.____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
