B My journey into the world of rock climbing began through an online connection with Octavia via LinkedIn. I’ve been curious about climbing for a long time, wondering how such a dangerous sport can be practiced so extensively by people of all ages. Octavia got into climbing as a teenager and hasn’t stopped since. Now she and her husband Dani live a life organized around a shared passion and their days are spent in nature, surrounded by good friends and incredible views. During the video chat, Octavia extended an invitation for me to come and climb near Braşov. We met in Zărneşti and headed to Prăpăstiile Zărneştilor, an amazing spot for climbers seeking the thrill of vertical challenges. Arriving at the rock face, I found some climbers were there already. Some of them were acquaintances, others not, but they treated each other as long-time friends. The couple walked me through the basics of the climb, ensuring I was comfortable and equipped with the necessary climbing gear. They had prepared a beginner-friendly climbing route, thoughtfully designed to provide both challenges and victories. After they explained the safety features of the whole climbing setup, I embarked on my first climbing. After my initial climb exhaustion surged through my body, but their unwavering encouragement kept me coming back for more. It was an extra fun challenge when people from down below shouted clues up to me, which helped me find ways to put my hands and find a foothold so that I could get over particularly tricky parts of the line. As I left the crag (峭壁) that day, I was part of something bigger than myself. I now look forward to future climbs. Not just for the thrill of ascending heights, but to once again bask in the warmth of the encouragement of my newfound friends. With their guidance, every climb will become evidence to the heights we can reach, both on and off the rock face. 4. What made the writer try rock climbing? A. An invitation from LinkedIn. B. Her desire to practice climbing skills. C. Her curiosity in a friend’s life. D. An online chat with a newfound friend. 5. What does the underlined words “embarked on” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Appreciated. B. Evaluated. C. Began. D. Improved. 6. Which of the following best describes the rock climbers in the text? A. Genuine and thoughtful. B. Enthusiastic and wise. C. United and hardworking. D. Passionate and humorous. 7. What can we know about the author’s climbing experience? A. She expected little for future climbs. B. She got great support and gained a lot. C. She was left out by the experienced climbers. D. She mastered the skills and made it to the top easily. C Over the past few months, the Let Them Theory has been making waves online. It started when Mel Robbins, a popular motivational speaker, shared it on Instagram. In her video, Robbins talks about the importance of letting go of control in certain situations, advocating for a model shift in how we interact with others. Robbins insists that too often, we waste time and energy trying to push others into meeting our expectations. Instead, she proposes a simpler, more liberating approach: “letting them” be themselves. “Let them be themselves because they are revealing who they are to you. Just let them. Then, you get to choose what you do next.” she said. Dr. Sophie Mort a clinical psychologist and mental health expert, offers deeper insights into the psychological foundation of this Theory. She said that our natural desire to control others often originates from a need to relieve our own anxieties and uncertainties. However, such attempts often result in disappointment and exhaustion as we realize the uselessness of our efforts. Basically, the theory emphasizes the acknowledgment that we cannot control the actions or decisions of others. It urges us to give up the burden of forcing our desires onto those closest to us and accept the mindset of acceptance. While the theory may not be formally recognized in clinical settings, its principles connect with established concepts such as acceptance and mindfulness. It shows the essence of acceptance and commitment therapy, emphasizing the importance of accepting our thoughts and feelings without judgment. Meanwhile, marriage and family therapist Chapell Marsh further explains the resemblance between the theory and the psychological concept of “locus of control.” The theory received a lot of positive responses. Many claim that adopting this approach has fostered harmony and minimized conflicts in their interactions. However, it’s urgent to recognize the limitations of the theory. While it promotes acceptance and nonjudgmental attitudes, it must not be employed in situations where safety is compromised or where necessary conversations are avoided. “Avoiding difficult conversations can lead to problems,” said Chapell Marsh. 8. What’s the core of the Let Them Theory? A. Taking control of others in every situation. B. Letting others expose their true self to us. C. Pushing others into meeting our expectations. D. Insisting on our way of interacting with others. 9. Why do people want to control others according to Dr. Sophie? A. To be satisfied with themselves. B. To make others accept their mindset. C. To ease their own worries and doubts. D. To force their desires onto the closest ones. 10. What does the author convey in paragraph 4? A. The Let Them Theory should be recognized clinically. B. We should accept our thoughts and feelings without judgement. C. Marriage and family relationships need psychological concepts. D. The Let Them Theory is consistent with the existing accepted theories. 11. In which situation should the Let Them Theory be avoided? A. Your friend’s safety is being threatened. B. Someone says something mean behind your back. C. Your kids don’t want to get up and go shopping with you. D. Your friends are not inviting you out to brunch this weekend. D Houses covered in ivy are an attractive sight to see. But many gardeners fear that ivy causes major structural damage to buildings and long to remove it whenever they can, right? Not so, says James Wong, a botanist and science writer. “I am always surprised by how often gardening can be so driven by fear.” he says. “The thinking behind this is that climbers harm brickwork and can cause structural damage to buildings.” But few fears are based on any scientific evidence. And frequently, the exact opposite is true. In a 2020 study from the Royal Horticultural Society, climbing plants like ivy were found to have a protective effect on model brick buildings constructed for the experiment. The shade by the plants’ leaves cooled the surface of the buildings in summer by as much as 5.7°C. What’s more, ivy didn’t significantly raise humidity levels (湿度) －rather, it helped stabilize them, minimizing the damage to the buildings’ surfaces. The living coating also lowered summer temperatures inside the buildings by up to 7.2°C and reduced heating bills by as much as 20 percent in winter. What about real-world, well-used buildings, whose outside may have experienced centuries of environmental damage? Another study from 2011 found that in five historic buildings across England, bare walls experienced average maximum temperatures 36 percent higher and minimum temperatures 15 percent lower compared with those coated in ivy. The researchers concluded that the living insulation (隔热) provided by ivy would “reduce the likelihood of frost and salt damage to the building materials, thus contributing to their conservation”. They also found in another study that the leaves’ ability to trap pollution could reduce the damage to historical walls. Imagine if there was a new material that could cool cities and cut energy bills. The truth is that we have had this miracle material all along, but rather than appreciating it, we have spent huge amounts of time worrying about how to get rid of it. 12. Why do gardeners want to remove the ivy? A. To get rid of their fear of ivy. B. To make the houses more attractive. C. To confirm previous scientific evidence. D. To protect the brickwork and structure of the building. 13. What can we learn from the 2020 study? A. Climbing plants increase heating bills in winter. B. Climbing plants can severely damage brickwork. C. Climbing plants raise humidity levels against brickwork. D. Climbing plants reduce the temperature of buildings in summer. 14. How can ivy benefit historical buildings? A. It improves the visual appeal of old buildings. B. It removes pollutants from the surroundings. C. It protects building materials from frost and salt damage. D. It promotes the energy efficiency of historical structures. 15. What would be the best title for the text? A. Ivy: a troublemaker of preserving the old building B. Ivy: an unexpected helper in buildings conservation C. The environmental impact of ivy on modern architecture D. The need for a new material to cool cities and cut energy bills 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。 Having thousands of photos, songs and films available at our fingertips would have seemed amazing just a few decades ago, but how long will these files last for and be available? Could the digital data now put a time limit on our memories? ___16___ The materials that phones and computers are made of can decay (腐蚀) over time. ___17___ When digital data degrades, it can quickly make it impossible to open a file. Also, as formats and devices become out of date, it may become impossible to read files from previous decades. ___18___ Large companies can still lose data. In 2019, social media platform MySpace admitted losing more than 12 years’ worth of users’ music uploads. The widespread use of streaming services for music, TV and film means that people no longer own the content that they watch and listen to, they just pay for the right to access it. If streaming companies decide to remove content, or go out of business, users will lose access.  Licensing rather than buying content is an example of how our behaviour towards digital content has changed. ___19___ This means that, added to the challenge of keeping our data safe, people have to consider what to preserve and what can be thrown away. So, what can we do? Technology writer Jack Schofield said that “data doesn’t really exist unless you have at least two copies of it”. ___20___ Probably more than one. Academic Paul Royster suggests that we should all take time to consider what content we personally believe is worth saving. Perhaps the answer is just to avoid digital altogether. A. It’s necessary to store memories now. B. Digital memories might not last forever. C. Thus, this will impact the data they store. D. So it’s important to back up what is important to us. E. Storing information in the cloud can also present problems. F. However, the quality of the data they store will remain unchanged. G. Another example is that we take far more pictures than people did in the past. 第二部分 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。 It has been another winter in the mountains of my home.

When I was in the third grade, I was picked to be the princess in the school play, and for weeks my mother had practised my lines (台词) so hard with me. But no matter how easily I delivered them at home, as soon as I stepped onstage, every word disappeared from my head. Finally, my teacher took me aside. She explained that she had written a narrator’s (旁白) part to the play, and asked me to switch roles. I didn’t tell my mother what had happened when I went home for lunch that day. But she sensed my pain, and instead of suggesting we practice my lines, she asked if I wanted to walk in the yard. It was a lovely spring day and the rose vine (藤蔓) was turning green. Under the huge trees, we could see yellow daisies popping through the grass in bunches, as if a painter had touched our landscape with a little bit of gold. I watched my mother casually bend down by one of the daisies. “I think I’m going to dig up all these weeds,” she said, suddenly pulling a flower up by its roots. “From now on, we’ll have only roses in this garden.” “But I like daisies,” I protested (抗议). “All flowers are beautiful——even daisies.” My mother looked at me seriously. “Yes, every flower has its own beauty, doesn’t it?” she asked thoughtfully. I nodded, feeling pleased that I had won her over. “And that is true of people too,” she added, “Not everyone can be a princess. Hence, there is no shame in that.” Relieved that she had sensed my pain, I started to cry when I told her what had happened. She listened and smiled. 注意： 1. 所续写的短文的词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在以下位置作答。 Paragraph 1： “You will be a beautiful narrator,” she comforted. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Backstage on the night of the performance, I still felt nervous. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024年高考适应性训练 英 语 试 题 （二） 注意事项: 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号等填写在答题卡和试卷指定位置上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 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 Every year, young, talented, and ambitious nature conservationists from all over the world participate in the presentation of the Future For Nature Award, an honorable international award.

Then, you get to choose what you do next.”（让他们做他们自己，因为他们正在向你展示他们是谁。就让他们展示吧。然后，你可以选择你接下来要做什么。）可知，Let Them理论的核心是让他人向我们展示他们真实的自我。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“She said that our natural desire to control others often originates from a need to relieve our own anxieties and uncertainties.”（她说，我们控制他人的自然欲望往往源于缓解我们自己的焦虑和不确定性的需要。）可知，人们想要控制他人是为了缓解自己的焦虑和疑虑。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“It shows the essence of acceptance and commitment therapy, emphasizing the importance of accepting our thoughts and feelings without judgment. Meanwhile, marriage and family therapist Chapell Marsh further explains the resemblance between the theory and the psychological concept of “locus of control.””（它展示了接受和承诺疗法的本质，强调了不加评判地接受自己的想法和感受的重要性。同时，婚姻家庭治疗师Chapell Marsh进一步解释了该理论与心理学概念“控制点”的相似之处。）可推知，Let Them理论与现有的接受的理论是一致的。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“While it promotes acceptance and nonjudgmental attitudes, it must not be employed in situations where safety is compromised or where necessary conversations are avoided.”（虽然它提倡接受和无评判的态度，但在安全受到威胁或者需要避免必要的对话的情况下，不应该使用这个理论。）可推知，当你的朋友的安全受到威胁时，应该避免使用Let Them理论。故选A。 D Houses covered in ivy are an attractive sight to see. But many gardeners fear that ivy causes major structural damage to buildings and long to remove it whenever they can, right? Not so, says James Wong, a botanist and science writer. “I am always surprised by how often gardening can be so driven by fear.” he says. “The thinking behind this is that climbers harm brickwork and can cause structural damage to buildings.” But few fears are based on any scientific evidence. And frequently, the exact opposite is true. In a 2020 study from the Royal Horticultural Society, climbing plants like ivy were found to have a protective effect on model brick buildings constructed for the experiment. The shade by the plants’ leaves cooled the surface of the buildings in summer by as much as 5.7°C. What’s more, ivy didn’t significantly raise humidity levels (湿度) －rather, it helped stabilize them, minimizing the damage to the buildings’ surfaces. The living coating also lowered summer temperatures inside the buildings by up to 7.2°C and reduced heating bills by as much as 20 percent in winter. What about real-world, well-used buildings, whose outside may have experienced centuries of environmental damage? Another study from 2011 found that in five historic buildings across England, bare walls experienced average maximum temperatures 36 percent higher and minimum temperatures 15 percent lower compared with those coated in ivy. The researchers concluded that the living insulation (隔热) provided by ivy would “reduce the likelihood of frost and salt damage to the building materials, thus contributing to their conservation”. They also found in another study that the leaves’ ability to trap pollution could reduce the damage to historical walls. Imagine if there was a new material that could cool cities and cut energy bills. The truth is that we have had this miracle material all along, but rather than appreciating it, we have spent huge amounts of time worrying about how to get rid of it. 12. Why do gardeners want to remove the ivy? A. To get rid of their fear of ivy. B. To make the houses more attractive. C. To confirm previous scientific evidence. D To protect the brickwork and structure of the building. 13. What can we learn from the 2020 study? A. Climbing plants increase heating bills in winter. B. Climbing plants can severely damage brickwork. C. Climbing plants raise humidity levels against brickwork. D. Climbing plants reduce the temperature of buildings in summer. 14. How can ivy benefit historical buildings? A. It improves the visual appeal of old buildings. B. It removes pollutants from the surroundings. C. It protects building materials from frost and salt damage. D. It promotes the energy efficiency of historical structures. 15. What would be the best title for the text? A. Ivy: a troublemaker of preserving the old building B. Ivy: an unexpected helper in buildings conservation C. The environmental impact of ivy on modern architecture D. The need for a new material to cool cities and cut energy bills 【答案】12. D 13. D 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了常春藤对建筑物的保护作用，包括降低建筑物的温度，稳定湿度，减少冬季的取暖费用，以及对历史建筑物的保护作用。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The thinking behind this is that climbers harm brickwork and can cause structural damage to buildings.”（人们之所以这么想，是因为他们认为攀爬植物会损害砖石结构，甚至可能对建筑物造成结构性的损害。）可知，园丁们想要移除常春藤是因为他们认为常春藤会对建筑物的砖石结构和整体结构造成损害。故选D。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“The shade by the plants’ leaves cooled the surface of the buildings in summer by as much as 5.7°C.”（植物叶子的遮阳作用使得建筑物的表面在夏天降低了高达5.7°C的温度。）可知，攀爬植物可以在夏天降低建筑物的温度。故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“The researchers concluded that the living insulation (隔热) provided by ivy would “reduce the likelihood of frost and salt damage to the building materials, thus contributing to their conservation”.”（研究人员得出结论，常春藤提供的生物隔热层能够“降低建筑材料受到冰霜和盐分损害的可能性，从而有助于它们的保护”。）可知，常春藤可以保护建筑材料免受冰霜和盐分的损害。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，尤其是最后一段“Imagine if there was a new material that could cool cities and cut energy bills. The truth is that we have had this miracle material all along, but rather than appreciating it, we have spent huge amounts of time worrying about how to get rid of it.”（想象一下，如果有一种新的材料可以降低城市的温度并减少能源消耗。事实上，我们一直都有这种神奇的材料，但我们却没有去欣赏它，反而花费了大量的时间去担心如何去除它。）可知，常春藤是一种意想不到的建筑物保护者。所以，用B项“Ivy: an unexpected helper in buildings conservation”作为本文的题目，与文章主题相符合。故选B。 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。 Having thousands of photos, songs and films available at our fingertips would have seemed amazing just a few decades ago, but how long will these files last for and be available? Could the digital data now put a time limit on our memories? ___16___ The materials that phones and computers are made of can decay (腐蚀) over time. ___17___ When digital data degrades, it can quickly make it impossible to open a file. Also, as formats and devices become out of date, it may become impossible to read files from previous decades. ___18___ Large companies can still lose data. In 2019, social media platform MySpace admitted losing more than 12 years’ worth of users’ music uploads. The widespread use of streaming services for music, TV and film means that people no longer own the content that they watch and listen to, they just pay for the right to access it. If streaming companies decide to remove content, or go out of business, users will lose access.  Licensing rather than buying content is an example of how our behaviour towards digital content has changed. ___19___ This means that, added to the challenge of keeping our data safe, people have to consider what to preserve and what can be thrown away. So, what can we do? Technology writer Jack Schofield said that “data doesn’t really exist unless you have at least two copies of it”. ___20___ Probably more than one. Academic Paul Royster suggests that we should all take time to consider what content we personally believe is worth saving. Perhaps the answer is just to avoid digital altogether. A. It’s necessary to store memories now. B. Digital memories might not last forever. C. Thus, this will impact the data they store. D. So it’s important to back up what is important to us. E. Storing information in the cloud can also present problems. F. However, the quality of the data they store will remain unchanged. G. Another example is that we take far more pictures than people did in the past. 【答案】16. B 17. C 18. E 19. G 20. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，短文介绍了数字记忆可能不会永远存在的原因和解决措施。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Having thousands of photos, songs and films available at our fingertips would have seemed amazing just a few decades ago, but how long will these files last for and be available? Could the digital data now put a time limit on our memories?”（几十年前，成千上万的照片、歌曲和电影在我们的指尖上触手可及似乎是令人惊叹的，但这些文件能持续使用多久呢？现在的数字数据会给我们的记忆设定一个时间限制吗？）可知，选项回答上文且引起下文数字记忆可能不会永远存在的原因。故B选项“数字记忆可能不会永远存在”切题。故选B项。 【17题详解】 根据上文“The materials that phones and computers are made of can decay (腐蚀) over time.”（制造手机和电脑的材料会随着时间的推移而腐烂）可知，选项承接上文说明其对数据存储的影响。故C选项“因此，这将影响它们存储的数据”切题。故选C项。 【18题详解】 根据下文“Large companies can still lose data. In 2019, social media platform MySpace admitted losing more than 12 years’ worth of users’ music uploads.”（大公司仍然会丢失数据。2019年，社交媒体平台MySpace承认丢失了超过12年的用户音乐上传数据）可知，云储存也是有问题的。故E选项“云存储也会出现问题”切题，为本段的标题。故选E项。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Licensing rather than buying content is an example of how our behaviour towards digital content has changed.”（授权而非购买内容就是我们对数字内容的行为发生变化的一个例子。）可知，选项与上文为并列关系说明另外一个例子。故G选项“另一个例子是，我们拍的照片比过去的人拍得多”切题。故选G项。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Technology writer Jack Schofield said that “data doesn’t really exist unless you have at least two copies of it”.”（ 科技作家杰克·斯科菲尔德说:“除非你拥有至少两份数据，否则数据并不真正存在。”）可知，选项承接上文说明进一步的做法且话题和备份有关。故D选项“所以备份对我们来说重要的东西是很重要的”切题。故选D项。 第二部分 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。 It has been another winter in the mountains of my home.

When I was in the third grade, I was picked to be the princess in the school play, and for weeks my mother had practised my lines (台词) so hard with me. But no matter how easily I delivered them at home, as soon as I stepped onstage, every word disappeared from my head. Finally, my teacher took me aside. She explained that she had written a narrator’s (旁白) part to the play, and asked me to switch roles. I didn’t tell my mother what had happened when I went home for lunch that day. But she sensed my pain, and instead of suggesting we practice my lines, she asked if I wanted to walk in the yard. It was a lovely spring day and the rose vine (藤蔓) was turning green. Under the huge trees, we could see yellow daisies popping through the grass in bunches, as if a painter had touched our landscape with a little bit of gold. I watched my mother casually bend down by one of the daisies. “I think I’m going to dig up all these weeds,” she said, suddenly pulling a flower up by its roots. “From now on, we’ll have only roses in this garden.” “But I like daisies,” I protested (抗议). “All flowers are beautiful——even daisies.” My mother looked at me seriously. “Yes, every flower has its own beauty, doesn’t it?” she asked thoughtfully. I nodded, feeling pleased that I had won her over. “And that is true of people too,” she added, “Not everyone can be a princess. Hence, there is no shame in that.” Relieved that she had sensed my pain, I started to cry when I told her what had happened. She listened and smiled. 注意： 1. 所续写的短文的词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在以下位置作答。 Paragraph 1： “You will be a beautiful narrator,” she comforted. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Backstage on the night of the performance, I still felt nervous. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1： “You will be a beautiful narrator,” she comforted. Upon hearing her comforting words, I held back my bitter tears, lost in deep thought. Hardly had she noticed the sadness on my face soften a little when she caressed my hair, adding, “No one is born to be a princess. Why not take advantage of narrator’s part?” With mother’s encouragement, I began to accept that the narrator’s part was of vital significance. In the following weeks, every lunchtime with my mother witnessed my mighty effort to practice my part of lines. So fast did time pass that the performance day arrived. Paragraph 2： Backstage on the night of the performance, I still felt nervous. Sweat oozing from my palms, it was at that very moment that I found a daisy in my pocket. In a flash, I realized my mother had passed the flower to me, which meant to be in company with me. Consumed with courage and confidence, I concentrated on my part and the performance turned out to be a great success, the audience standing up and bursting into thunderous applause. After the play, I put the daisy into my dictionary, which was a reminder of our precious lunchtimes, bathed in the soft midday light. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者原本被选定为出演话剧中公主的角色，由于表现不佳，被老师调整角色，不得不担任话剧讲解员，在心情郁闷之时，母亲一如既往地用自己的智慧，以花园里玫瑰和雏菊的存在打比方，宽慰作者的心，帮助作者重拾信心，让作者在后来的人生道路上也充满了信心。 【详解】1. 段落续写：  ①由第一段首句内容““你将成为一个美丽的讲解员，”她安慰道”可知，第一段可描写母亲如何用花园里的玫瑰和雏菊打比方，缓解我的情绪，给我勇气，让我重拾信心去参加演出。 ②由第二段首句内容“演出当晚在后台，我仍然感到紧张”可知，第二段可描写作者如何克服紧张情绪及雏菊对作者产生的影响。 2. 续写线索：参加学校话剧表演——表现不佳——被老师调整为讲解员——母亲用玫瑰和雏菊打比方——重拾信心——演出成功——雏菊对作者的影响 3. 词汇激活 行类 ①注意到：notice/take notice of ②利用：take advantage of /make use of ③集中：concentrate on/focus on 情绪类 ①伤心：sadness/sorrow ②紧张的：nervous/anxious 【点睛】【高分句型1】So fast did time pass that the performance day arrived.(运用了so...that结构的倒装句式) 【高分句型2】Sweat oozing from my palms, it was at that very moment that I found a daisy in my pocket.(运用了独立主格结构和强调句式) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
