Cathy thrives on the variety, with each new sport providing new challenges and a renewed appreciation of her chosen field of expertise. In her view, dealing with athletes from various sport backgrounds helps her become seasoned, which is a key part of being a successful nutritionist. “You have to understand nutrition and people, and then you can begin to work in this field,” she says. “Besides, in tennis you must learn to be reactive, because you don’t know how long the match lasts. However, it’s 90 minutes in football so you know what you’re fueling for.” Regardless of the sport, Cathy’s attitude remains the same: Any athlete failing to respect nutrition is one who is failing to fulfill their potential. It’s a key part of the training process. It’s not just something that you take casually. She advises her athletes to hold nutrition in the same regard as they do their most crucial bit of equipment. “Just as you wouldn’t forget to put your shin pads (护腿板) or your boots in your kit bag, don’t forget to put in your drinks and your snacks. That informs how well you train, because you can’t get out if you haven’t put in.” Nutritionists are sometimes unfairly represented as militant (斗志昂扬的) types telling what athletes can and can’t eat. But Cathy insists that when to eat is more important than what. “It’s about when’s the right time to have it in,” she says. It’s a message that Cathy says can take a while to sink in. “A lot of boxers say, ‘but bananas make you fat, right?’, and there’s this inherent belief that we mustn’t eat those kinds of things. But it’s not about what to cut out. It’s about making sure that you’ve got the foundation right for health and performance. It’s that one size fits one. It’s what works for you. To be an excellent athlete, you really need to be an exceptional eater.” 4. What does Cathy think about her job? A. It hardly faces new challenges in every competition. B. It mainly focuses on the duration of matches. C. It merely needs to understand nutrition and people. D. It highly values experience and flexibility. 5. How does Cathy emphasize the importance of nutrition to athletes? A. By making a comparison. B. By analyzing a phenomenon. C. By telling a story. D. By providing data. 6. According to Cathy, what is a fundamental principle behind successful sports nutrition? A. Focusing on the timing of the diet. B. Cutting out specific foods from the diet. C. Following a strict and militant diet plan. D. Increasing the variety of foods. 7. What does the author intend to tell us? A. Food has a say in the sports field. B. Nutritionists act as unsung heroes behind athletes. C. Nutrition determines the results in the competition. D. A good eater is a great athlete. C Most birds, in particular, exhibit some degree of patterns and colours. Australia’s zebra finch (斑胸草雀), for example, was so named because of the zebra-like black and white bars on its tail. But it also has many other colours and patterns, from a bright orange bill to fine white spots along its reddish-brown sides. It’s not uncommon to spot the bird in the drier parts of Australia. We tend to suppose all individuals of that species have their spots and bars in the same places. Look closer yet we’ll see that the quantity and design of these patterns vary between individuals. And somehow a bird exhibits a more obvious feather variation. Occasionally, we see one that has larger than usual pale areas of feathers or, more rarely, has lost its normal patterning altogether. Colouration and patterning in all animals are caused by a range of pigments (色素). Melanin (黑色素) is responsible for blacks and browns and a lack of this pigment can cause a partial or total loss of an individual’s dark patterning. The two main terms that describe these abnormalities are albinism and leucism. Both conditions are genetic and both can lead to a very similar physical appearance. Leucism, however, causes a lack of the pigment cells that produce melanin. But albinism causes the production of melanin to be reduced or absent. Can we distinguish between the two conditions without the help of a cellular biologist? Yes. Albino animals have fully unpigmented red eyes. Leucistic animals, on the other hand, never completely lose pigment from the eye, although they can have blue eyes due to a partial loss of pigment. Why don’t we see more albino or leucistic birds? Because the lack of melanin reduces the strength and lastingness of the affected birds’ feathers, making them more easily broken. Additionally, the birds’ vision and hearing are negatively affected, making them less able to hunt. The brighter feathers and lack of patterning also make them easier for attackers to see. 8. What can we learn about Australia’s zebra finch? A. It is one of the rarest birds in Australia. B. It is mostly covered with bright orange feathers. C. It acquires its name from its tail colours and patterns. D. It has the same spots and bars in the same places. 9. How is the third paragraph developed? A. By giving explanations. B. By presenting opinions. C. By setting assumptions. D. By drawing conclusions. 10. What can a lack of melanin lead to? A. Total loss of patterns. B. Genetically-born abnormalities. C. Darkened feathers. D. Abnormal formation of wings. 11. Which of the following correctly describes albino or leucistic birds? A. They have quite good hearing. B. They have completely red eyes. C. They have excellent hunting skills. D. They have easily broken feathers. D There are many potential sources of clean energy out there: solar energy, wind energy, hydrogen-based energy, and more. One of the less-known sources of clean energy is wave energy. Now the energy is being put to use in an almost funny way, turning seawater into drinking water by Oneka, a Canadian startup. In general, there are two traditional kinds of desalination (脱盐) technology. In the first technology, seawater is heated till the water changes into steam, leaving the salt behind, and then the steam is cooled, turning into water, and made available for use. In the second one, seawater is pushed through a see-through thin material, separating the salt and the water, which consumes relatively less fuel compared with the first technology. Whichever technology is used, however, most desalination plants run on non-renewable energy. Desalination equipment is traditionally powered by fossil fuels, but the world has certainly reached a vital point where it’s necessary to move away from fossil fuel-powered desalination. This is where Oneka’s unique desalination technology comes in. Oneka uses floating desalination machines, attached to a kind of floating device which then absorbs energy from the ocean waves, and changes it into mechanical forces, to pump the water through the see-through thin material system. The fresh water is then pumped to land, through the power of the waves. The waste from conventional desalination plants contains high concentrations of salt which is discharged into the sea, creating a zone where sea life dies off. Oneka’s technology steers clear of this, because the water that streams back into the ocean only has a 30 percent increase in the salt concentration, and is quickly spread by the waves. This innovative technology shows us that sometimes the solutions to complicated problems don’t have to be complicated at all. Sometimes all you need are the ocean waves. 12. Which can best describe the first technology in paragraph 2? A. It is labor-intensive. B. It is energy-hungry. C. It separates salt via cooling. D. It outperforms the second one. 13. What can we learn about Oneka’s technology? A. It’s slightly complicated. B. It leaves little salt behind. C. It reshapes fresh water storage. D. It’s mechanically driven. 14. What does the underlined phrase “steers clear of” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Relieves. B. Facilitates. C. Envelops. D. Achieves. 15. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A Eco-driven Desalination Machines B. Ocean Waves: The New Energy Solution C. Wave-powered Green Desalination D. Desalination: The Future of Fresh Water 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 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。 If you wrestle with insomnia (失眠), you probably have been tempted to try anything that promises better sleep. One thing that might sound a little strange but that has been known to work: adding a weighted blanket to those bedcovers. ____16____ Alanna McGinn, founder and lead sleep expert at Good Night Sleep Site, says, “I’m an advocate of them because they can work so well.” About 32% of Americans don’t get enough sleep, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the US.____17____ But as many as 35% of adults have trouble sleeping from time to time, and 10% regularly have trouble falling and staying asleep. Just as swaddling (用襁褓裹住) babies can send them to sleep, using a weighted blanket helps your heart and breathing slow and your body release feel-good hormones. The weight — usually between 5 and 30 pounds, which sounds like a lot but is spread out over the entire bed—comes usually from plastic or glass beads (珠子) surrounded by filling.____18____ A 2020 review looked at eight studies and concluded that weighted blankets helped reduce anxiety but not necessarily insomnia.____19____ A randomized controlled study in Sweden in 2020 looked at 120 people with insomnia and also depression anxiety or other metal disorders. Those who used a weighted blanket reported that they had better sleep and were less tired, anxious and depressed during the day. ____20____ “If you’re someone with circulatory conditions such as diabetes or breathing issues, you should check with your doctor before using a weighted blanket,” adds McGinn. A. No two blankets are the same. B. Other researches tell a slightly different story. C. Weighted blankets have become a sleep tool to have. D. However, weighted blankets may not be effective for all individuals. E. There are multiple weight options to meet individual comfort needs. F. The heaviness imitates a touch therapy called deep pressure stimulation. G. Experts there recommend at least seven hours of shut-eye per night for adults. 第三部分 语言运用（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，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 My life is full and active taking care of my grandson.

So it was with Mama’s minestrone soup (意大利浓菜汤). There was no recipe for her minestrone soup. For our large immigrant family, Mama’s soup guaranteed we would never go hungry. It was a symbol of security. Its recipe was created spontaneously (非计划安排地) from what was in the kitchen. And we could judge the state of our family economy by its contents. A hearty soup with tomatoes, pasta, beans, carrots, celery, onion, corn and meat indicated things were going well. A water y soup suggested hard times. At one time, however, Mama’s soup pot became a source of embarrassment to me, for I feared it would cost me a new friend I had made at school. Sol was a thin, dark-haired boy, and an unusual pal for me because his father was a doctor and they lived in the best part of town. Often Sol invited me to his home for dinner. The family had a cook in a white uniform who worked in a kitchen with shining utensils (厨房用具). The food was good, but I found it bland (清淡的), lacking the heartiness of my home food served from flame-blackened pots. Moreover, the atmosphere matched the food. Everything was so formal. Sol’s mother and father were polite, but conversation around the table was subdued (克制的). And no one hugged! In our family, warm hugs were a constant and if you didn’t kiss your mother, she demanded: “What’s the matter, you sick?” But at that time in my life, all this was an embarrassment. I had known Sol would like to eat dinner at our house, but that was the last thing I wanted. My family was so different. 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。 Finally when Sol asked again if he could come to our house I had to say yes. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ But to my amazement, I noticed Sol took a spoonful of Mama’s minestrone soup. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 历城二中打靶考试英语试题 第一部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 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 Dining & Housing in New York University Dining on campus is about choice and flexibility, with six dining halls and meal plans that allow students to enjoy it all.

Leucism, however, causes a lack of the pigment cells that produce melanin. But albinism causes the production of melanin to be reduced or absent.”（ 所有动物的着色和图案都是由一系列色素引起的。黑色素是黑色和棕色的原因，缺乏这种色素会导致个人的深色图案部分或全部丧失。描述这些异常的两个主要术语是白化病和白化症。这两种情况都是遗传的，都可能导致非常相似的外表。然而，白皙症会导致产生黑色素的色素细胞的缺乏。但白化病导致黑色素的产生减少或缺失。）可知，第三段主要解释了色素对动物颜色和图案的影响，以及白化病和白化症的区别，因此，这一段是通过给出解释来发展的。故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Melanin (黑色素) is responsible for blacks and browns, and a lack of this pigment can cause a partial or total loss of an individual’s dark patterning.

Both conditions are genetic and both can lead to a very similar physical appearance.”（ 黑色素是黑色和棕色的原因，缺乏这种色素会导致个人的深色图案部分或全部丧失。描述这些异常的两个主要术语是白化病和白化症。这两种情况都是遗传的，都可能导致非常相似的外表。）可知，黑色素缺乏导致遗传异常。故选B。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Because the lack of melanin reduces the strength and lastingness of the affected birds’ feathers, making them more easily broken.”（因为缺乏黑色素会降低受影响的鸟类的羽毛的强度和持久性，使它们更容易断裂。）可知，白变或白化症的鸟类的羽毛更容易断裂，故选D。 D There are many potential sources of clean energy out there: solar energy, wind energy, hydrogen-based energy, and more. One of the less-known sources of clean energy is wave energy. Now the energy is being put to use in an almost funny way, turning seawater into drinking water by Oneka, a Canadian startup. In general, there are two traditional kinds of desalination (脱盐) technology. In the first technology, seawater is heated till the water changes into steam, leaving the salt behind, and then the steam is cooled, turning into water, and made available for use. In the second one, seawater is pushed through a see-through thin material, separating the salt and the water, which consumes relatively less fuel compared with the first technology. Whichever technology is used, however, most desalination plants run on non-renewable energy. Desalination equipment is traditionally powered by fossil fuels, but the world has certainly reached a vital point where it’s necessary to move away from fossil fuel-powered desalination. This is where Oneka’s unique desalination technology comes in. Oneka uses floating desalination machines, attached to a kind of floating device which then absorbs energy from the ocean waves, and changes it into mechanical forces, to pump the water through the see-through thin material system. The fresh water is then pumped to land, through the power of the waves. The waste from conventional desalination plants contains high concentrations of salt which is discharged into the sea, creating a zone where sea life dies off. Oneka’s technology steers clear of this, because the water that streams back into the ocean only has a 30 percent increase in the salt concentration, and is quickly spread by the waves. This innovative technology shows us that sometimes the solutions to complicated problems don’t have to be complicated at all. Sometimes all you need are the ocean waves. 12. Which can best describe the first technology in paragraph 2? A. It is labor-intensive. B. It is energy-hungry. C. It separates salt via cooling. D. It outperforms the second one. 13. What can we learn about Oneka’s technology? A. It’s slightly complicated. B. It leaves little salt behind. C. It reshapes fresh water storage. D. It’s mechanically driven. 14. What does the underlined phrase “steers clear of” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Relieves. B. Facilitates. C. Envelops. D. Achieves. 15. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Eco-driven Desalination Machines B. Ocean Waves: The New Energy Solution C. Wave-powered Green Desalination D. Desalination: The Future of Fresh Water 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇科技类的说明文，主要讲述了加拿大创业公司Oneka利用海浪能源进行海水淡化的技术。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“In the first technology, seawater is heated till the water changes into steam, leaving the salt behind, and then the steam is cooled, turning into water, and made available for use.”（在第一种技术中，海水被加热到水变成蒸汽，留下盐，然后蒸汽被冷却，变成水，供人们使用。）可知，第一种技术需要消耗大量的能源，故选B。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Oneka uses floating desalination machines, attached to a kind of floating device which then absorbs energy from the ocean waves, and changes it into mechanical forces, to pump the water through the see-through thin material system.”（Oneka使用漂浮的海水淡化机器，连接到一种漂浮装置上，然后从海浪中吸收能量，并将其转化为机械力，通过透明薄材料系统泵水。）可知 Oneka的技术靠“机械驱动”，故选 D。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第四段“The waste from conventional desalination plants contains high concentrations of salt which is discharged into the sea, creating a zone where sea life dies off.”（传统海水淡化厂的废物含有高浓度的盐，这些盐被排放到海洋中，形成了一个海洋生物死亡的区域。）再根据“because the water that streams back into the ocean only has a 30 percent increase in the salt concentration, and is quickly spread by the waves.”（因为流回海洋的水只增加了30%的盐分浓度，并且很快被波浪扩散。）可知，Oneka的技术缓解了这个问题，故划线词的意思是“缓解”。故选A。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，特别是第三段“This is where Oneka’s unique desalination technology comes in. Oneka uses floating desalination machines, attached to a kind of floating device which then absorbs energy from the ocean waves, and changes it into mechanical forces, to pump the water through the see-through thin material system.”（这就是Oneka独特的淡化技术发挥作用的地方。Oneka使用浮动的淡化机器，这种机器连接到一种浮动设备上，然后吸收海浪的能量，并将其转化为机械力，通过透明薄材料系统泵水。）可知，文章主要讲述了Oneka利用海浪能源进行海水淡化的技术，故选C。 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 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。 If you wrestle with insomnia (失眠), you probably have been tempted to try anything that promises better sleep. One thing that might sound a little strange but that has been known to work: adding a weighted blanket to those bedcovers. ____16____ Alanna McGinn, founder and lead sleep expert at Good Night Sleep Site, says, “I’m an advocate of them because they can work so well.” About 32% of Americans don’t get enough sleep, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the US.____17____ But as many as 35% of adults have trouble sleeping from time to time, and 10% regularly have trouble falling and staying asleep. Just as swaddling (用襁褓裹住) babies can send them to sleep, using a weighted blanket helps your heart and breathing slow and your body release feel-good hormones. The weight — usually between 5 and 30 pounds, which sounds like a lot but is spread out over the entire bed—comes usually from plastic or glass beads (珠子) surrounded by filling.____18____ A 2020 review looked at eight studies and concluded that weighted blankets helped reduce anxiety but not necessarily insomnia.____19____ A randomized controlled study in Sweden in 2020 looked at 120 people with insomnia and also depression, anxiety or other metal disorders. Those who used a weighted blanket reported that they had better sleep and were less tired, anxious and depressed during the day. ____20____ “If you’re someone with circulatory conditions such as diabetes or breathing issues, you should check with your doctor before using a weighted blanket,” adds McGinn. A. No two blankets are the same. B. Other researches tell a slightly different story. C. Weighted blankets have become a sleep tool to have. D. However weighted blankets may not be effective for all individuals. E. There are multiple weight options to meet individual comfort needs. F. The heaviness imitates a touch therapy called deep pressure stimulation. G. Experts there recommend at least seven hours of shut-eye per night for adults. 【答案】16. C 17. G 18. F 19. B 20. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文为一篇说明文。研究表明，对于有失眠问题的人来说，在床罩上加一条加重的毯子，它的重量可以模仿深度压力刺激的触摸疗法，可以减慢心脏和呼吸，释放有益激素，因此减轻焦虑、改善睡眠质量，并减少疲劳、焦虑和抑郁，然而，对于患有循环系统疾病或呼吸问题的人来说，使用加重毯子前应咨询医生。。 【16题详解】 根据上文“One thing that might sound a little strange but that has been known to work: adding a weighted blanket to those bedcovers.”（有一件事听起来可能有点奇怪，但却很有效:在床罩上加一条加重的毯子。）可知，选项承接上文说明加重毛毯的作用。故C选项“加重毛毯已经成为一种睡眠工具”切题。故选C项。 【17题详解】 根据上文“About 32% of Americans don’t get enough sleep, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the US.”（根据美国疾病控制与预防中心的数据，大约32%的美国人睡眠不足）可知，选项承接上文说明专家对睡眠时间的建议。故G选项“专家建议成年人每晚至少睡7个小时”。故选G项。 【18题详解】 根据上文“The weight—usually between 5 and 30 pounds, which sounds like a lot but is spread out over the entire bed—comes usually from plastic or glass beads(珠子) surrounded by filling.”（这种重量通常在5到30磅之间，听起来很重，但却铺满了整张床——这种重量通常是由塑料或玻璃珠包裹的填充物制成的）可知，选项承接上文说明沉重感的灵感来源。故F选项“这种沉重感模仿了一种叫做深压刺激的触摸疗法。”切题。故选F项。 【19题详解】 根据上文“A 2020 review looked at eight studies and concluded that weighted blankets helped reduce anxiety but not necessarily insomnia.”（ 2020年的一项综述研究了8项研究，得出的结论是，加重的毯子有助于减轻焦虑，但不一定能减轻失眠。）根据下文“A randomized controlled study in Sweden in 2020 looked at 120 people with insomnia and also depression, anxiety or other metal disorders. Those who used a weighted blanket reported that they had better sleep and were less tired, anxious and depressed during the day.”（ 2020年，瑞典的一项随机对照研究对120名失眠、抑郁、焦虑或其他金属疾病患者进行了研究。那些使用加重毛毯的人报告说，他们睡得更好，白天不那么累、焦虑和抑郁。）可知，研究结果有所不同。故B选项“其他研究则略有不同”切题。故选B项。 【20题详解】 根据下文“If you’re someone with circulatory conditions such as diabetes or breathing issues, you should check with your doctor before using a weighted blanket,” adds McGinn.”（“如果你有循环系统疾病，如糖尿病或呼吸问题，你应该在使用加重毯子之前咨询你的医生。”）可知，然而，加重毛毯可能不是对所有人都有效。故D选项“加重毛毯可能不是对所有人都有效”切题。故选D项。 第三部分 语言运用（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，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 My life is full and active taking care of my grandson.

So it was with Mama’s minestrone soup (意大利浓菜汤). There was no recipe for her minestrone soup. For our large immigrant family, Mama’s soup guaranteed we would never go hungry. It was a symbol of security. Its recipe was created spontaneously (非计划安排地) from what was in the kitchen. And we could judge the state of our family economy by its contents. A hearty soup with tomatoes, pasta, beans, carrots, celery, onion, corn and meat indicated things were going well. A water y soup suggested hard times. At one time, however, Mama’s soup pot became a source of embarrassment to me, for I feared it would cost me a new friend I had made at school. Sol was a thin, dark-haired boy, and an unusual pal for me because his father was a doctor and they lived in the best part of town. Often Sol invited me to his home for dinner. The family had a cook in a white uniform who worked in a kitchen with shining utensils (厨房用具). The food was good, but I found it bland (清淡的), lacking the heartiness of my home food served from flame-blackened pots. Moreover, the atmosphere matched the food. Everything was so formal. Sol’s mother and father were polite, but conversation around the table was subdued (克制的). And no one hugged! In our family, warm hugs were a constant and if you didn’t kiss your mother, she demanded: “What’s the matter, you sick?” But at that time in my life, all this was an embarrassment. I had known Sol would like to eat dinner at our house, but that was the last thing I wanted. My family was so different. 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。 Finally when Sol asked again if he could come to our house, I had to say yes. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ But to my amazement, I noticed Sol took a spoonful of Mama’s minestrone soup. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Finally when Sol asked again if he could come to our house, I had to say yes. The day Sol came over I was very nervous. Mama and the other family members welcomed him with embraces. Soon after sitting at the heavy, deeply stained table, we were instantly faced with bowls of soup. “Sol,” Mama asked, “you know what this is?” “Soup?” Sol responded. “No soup,” Mama said emphatically. “It’s minestrone!” She then launched into a long explanation of the power of minestrone: how it cured headaches, colds. And Mama even said the soup would make Sol strong. I was so embarrassed, convinced that this would be the last time I would ever see my friend Sol. But to my amazement, I noticed Sol took a spoonful of Mama’s minestrone soup. His initial he sitation gave way to genuine enjoyment. And as the evening progressed, I saw him relax, his rigid posture melting away in my family’s easy atmosphere. After he finished his bowl, he asked for two more. “I like it a lot,” he said, slurping. When we were saying our good-byes, Sol confided, “You sure have a great family.” Then he added, “Boy, you are lucky!” Lucky? I wondered. Suddenly, it dawned on me that true wealth wasn’t measured in polished silver or spotless kitchens. It was found in the simple joys of family, laughter, and a steaming bowl of Mama’s minestrone soup. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索，讲述了作者母亲做的意大利浓菜汤能够让经济条件不好的移民家庭不挨饿，但作者觉得一份水汪汪的汤暗示着艰难的时期，有一段时间妈妈的汤锅成了他尴尬的来源。作者在学校交了一个好朋友Sol，他的家虽物质条件优渥，但缺少了作者家中那种由母亲的汤所象征的爱、温暖及随意自在的家庭氛围。Sol想要去作者的家里用餐，但是因为家庭环境的不同，作者并不想他到自己家里来。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句“最后，当索尔再次问他是否可以来我们家时，我不得不答应。”可知，第一段可描写Sol来作者家里吃饭时，作者家人热情的款待Sol，尤其是作者的妈妈，详细的给他解释了什么意大利浓菜汤。作者因此感到非常尴尬，觉得会失去Sol这个朋友 ②由第二段首句“但令我惊讶的是，我注意到索尔拿了一勺妈妈的意大利浓菜汤”可知，第二段可描写Sol非常喜欢妈妈的做的意大利浓菜汤，并让作者意识到母亲做的意大利浓菜汤的价值。 2.续写线索：再次要求来家里做客——答应——热情款待——介绍意大利浓菜汤——尴尬——喜欢意大利浓菜汤——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①欢迎：welcome/greet ②询问：ask/question/inquire ③(快速地)开始做某事： launch into/jump into/dive into 情绪类 ①紧张的：nervous/uneasy ②快乐：enjoyment/delight/pleasue 【点睛】【高分句型1】And as the evening progressed, I saw him relax, his rigid posture melting away in my family’s easy atmosphere.（运用了as引导的时间状语从句） 【高分句型2】After he finished his bowl, he asked for two more.（运用了after引导的时间状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
