B When Arsh was a young boy, his parents, Divya Pal and Sanjeev, signed him up for extracurricular activities such as piano, karate (空手道) and gymnastics, but he preferred art. When Arsh turned 8, he received a watercolor paint set as a birthday gift. He spent all his spare time painting. That’s how he started painting. Around the same time, Arsh often visited a local nursing home, where his mother works. Spending time there inspired him to start selling his art for a good cause. “I want to help people in need through my paintings,” he said. And so began his fundraising (筹款) program, which he called “Art by Arsh”. He sold his paintings at local art shows, restaurants and libraries, as well as on his Instagram account and Facebook page. He donated his first $1,000 to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in 2018, and has since reached various other charities. Arsh, now 12, mostly makes commissioned (委托创作的) pieces, and several of his customers have come back wanting more. That includes his neighbor, Jolene Schaver, who has five of Arsh’s creations hanging in her home and has bought many more for friends and family. “I was amazed at how talented he was at such a young age, without any formal training,” said Schaver. Along with selling his paintings to benefit nonprofit organizations, Arsh now also teaches art lessons at the local nursing home. And he thought about accessibility, and realized not all people have the resources (资源) to make art—which has the capacity to comfort and heal (治愈). “One of my future goals is to make art accessible for kids who want to express themselves,” Arsh said. He has already started offering free art lessons to local children, and he hopes to expand (扩展) his classes further in the future. 24. What do we know about the young Arsh according to the first paragraph? A. He received a painting as a birthday gift. B. He made a living through painting. C. He showed a lively interest in art. D. He got a place at an art school. 25. Why did Arsh start “Art by Arsh”? A. To raise money by selling his paintings. B. To introduce his paintings to more people. C. To donate some of his paintings to charities. D. To decorate local libraries with his paintings. 26. Which of the following best describes Arsh? A. Warm-hearted and humorous. B. Hard-working and honest. C. Gifted and generous. D. Kind and brave. 27. What does Arsh expect to do in the future? A Form more nonprofit organizations. B. Learn more about the healing power of art. C. Do more voluntary work at the nursing home. D. Create more opportunities for kids to make art. C John Snow was an English physician. His father worked in a coal yard. Snow was the firstborn in the low-income family of nine children. At the age of 14, he had to quit school and get a medical apprenticeship (学徒期). When visiting coal miners as an apprentice, Snow met with cholera—a disease which later became the focus of his scientific research. Snow began his formal medical education in 1836. In 1837, he began to work at the Westminster Hospital. The following year he was admitted as a member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England. Six years later, he received a Doctor of Medicine degree from the University of London. He was admitted to the Royal College of Physicians in1850. Snow is famous for two of his studies. The first study concerned the Broad Street pump (水泵) outbreak of 1854. He used graphs and maps to show the impact of the polluted water coming from the Broad Street pump. Snow reasoned that cholera was caused by a germ (细菌) that spread through polluted water, which diverged from the view held by other physicians that cholera was spread by bad air. The second study was the “Grand Experiment”, also of 1854. In1849, he first published his ideas and observations in an essay, On the Mode of Communication of Cholera. 28. What can we know about John Snow from Paragraph 1? A. He was an English physicist. B. He came from a poor family. C. He was the youngest child in his family. D. He used to be an apprentice in a coal yard. 29. When did he get a Doctor of Medicine degree? A. In 1838. B. In 1843. C. In 1844. D. In 1850. 30. Which of the following words can replace the underlined word? A. Disagreed. B. Distanced. C. Differed. D. Defended. 31. What is the topic of the last paragraph? A. John Snow’s great impact. B. John Snow’s famous essay. C. John Snow’s study method. D. John Snow’s well-known research. D Want to reduce your risk of dementia (痴呆)? Start counting your steps — you’ll need between 3,800 and 9,800 each day to reduce your risk of mental decline, according to a new study. People between the ages of 40 and 79 who took 9,826 steps per day were 50% less likely to develop dementia within seven years, the study found. Furthermore, people who walked with “purpose” — at a speed over 40 steps a minute — were able to cut their risk of dementia by 57% with just 6,315 steps a day. Even people who walked about 3,800 steps a day at any speed cut their risk by 25%. “That would be enough at first, for sedentary (久坐不动) people,” said Cruz, a senior researcher in health sciences. “In fact, it is a message that doctors could use to inspire sedentary older adults — 4,000 steps is achievable by many, even those less fit,” he added. “Perhaps, more active and fitter people should aim for 10,000, where we see the largest effects.” But there was an even more interesting result hidden in the study, according to an article entitled “Is 112 the New 10,000?” The largest reduction (降低) in dementia risk — 62% — was achieved by people who walked at a very easy speed of 112 steps per minute for 30 minutes a day, the study found. Earlier research has marked 100 steps a minute as an easy or middle level of strength. The article argued that people looking to reduce their risk of dementia should focus on their walking speed over their walking distance. “We do agree this is a very interesting finding,” said Cruz. “Our take is that strength of stepping matters! Technology could be used to track not only the number of steps but also the speed and so these types of measures can also be applied in commercial watches. More research is needed on this.” 32. What can we learn from Paragraph 2? A. Old people are more likely to have dementia. B. Young people had better walk 9,826 steps a day. C. It is harmful for people over 40 to walk too fast. D. It is good for people to walk about 3,800 steps a day. 33. At what speed can you walk with the least risk of dementia? A. About 3,800 steps a day at any speed. B. About 100 steps a minute a day. C. At a speed over 40 steps a minute for 30 minutes a day. D. At a speed of 112 steps a minute for half an hour a day. 34. What will future studies probably focus on about walking? A. The speed. B. The steps. C. The reasons. D. The benefits. 35. What is the main idea of the text? A. Those who keep walking are less likely to develop dementia. B. Walking each day can cut your risk of dementia but speed matters. C. Walk a certain number of steps each day to cut your risk of dementia. D. The more steps you take, the less risk of dementia you suffer from. 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够填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Express Thanks to Loved Ones You may feel grateful to your family and friends, but it may not always be easy for you to know how to express that.

You may be scared of being scolded. But it is the only way for you to be free from guilt. Simon was a curious boy. He lived with his grandfather. Simon was fond of reading adventure stories. So he was always curious about the store room where his grandfather kept his priceless antiques(古董). Though Simon knew his grandfather did not like anyone to touch his rare collections, he quietly entered the storeroom without his grandfather’s permission one night. Once inside the room, Simon stood on a chair. He lifted the big box wherein his grandfather had kept many valuable watches bought from different countries he had visited. While getting down from the chair, Simon’s elbow(肘部) struck against the chair. When he tried his best to pull his arm out, the box slipped out of his hands and fell onto the floor. All the watches lay all around. To his shock, he found the glass of his grandfather’s favorite watch broken. Simon was afraid that his grandfather would come to know about the broken glass. He started picking up the pieces of glass hurriedly. Simon thought, “My grandmother gifted the watch to my grandfather. This must be one of his most treasured possessions. How could I tell him that his favorite watch had broken? He must be angry with me. If I do not tell him, he will not come to know about it.” Simon got nervous. His heart started beating faster. He put the broken watch back into the box and placed the box back on the shelf. Afterwards, he went to sleep. However, he could not sleep in peace throughout the whole night. The broken watch even showed up in his dream. The next morning, Simon got up much earlier than before. The sleepless night made him realize that holding back the truth itself was more uncomfortable than breaking the watch. “But that watch is Grandpa’s favorite and he told me to be careful of the box before.” Simon said to himself and didn’t dare to face his grandfather. 注意：1. 续写词数150左右； 2. 请在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Though still worried about himself being scolded, Simon finally gathered the courage to see his grandfather. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Simon said, “I was scared at first, but I dared not tell a lie.” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 曲靖二中云师高级中学高一下学期5月月考试卷 英语 （全卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟） 第I卷 选择题（共95分） 注意事项： 1．答卷前，考生务必将自己的考场号、座位号、班级、姓名填写在答题卡上。 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，将答题卡交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案写在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上答案转涂到答题卡上。 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三个选项中选最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。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。每段对话仅读一遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What is the woman?

When Arsh turned 8, he received a watercolor paint set as a birthday gift. He spent all his spare time painting. That’s how he started painting. Around the same time, Arsh often visited a local nursing home, where his mother works. Spending time there inspired him to start selling his art for a good cause. “I want to help people in need through my paintings,” he said. And so began his fundraising (筹款) program, which he called “Art by Arsh”. He sold his paintings at local art shows, restaurants and libraries, as well as on his Instagram account and Facebook page. He donated his first $1,000 to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in 2018, and has since reached various other charities. Arsh, now 12, mostly makes commissioned (委托创作的) pieces, and several of his customers have come back wanting more. That includes his neighbor, Jolene Schaver, who has five of Arsh’s creations hanging in her home and has bought many more for friends and family. “I was amazed at how talented he was at such a young age, without any formal training,” said Schaver. Along with selling his paintings to benefit nonprofit organizations, Arsh now also teaches art lessons at the local nursing home. And he thought about accessibility, and realized not all people have the resources (资源) to make art—which has the capacity to comfort and heal (治愈). “One of my future goals is to make art accessible for kids who want to express themselves,” Arsh said. He has already started offering free art lessons to local children, and he hopes to expand (扩展) his classes further in the future. 24. What do we know about the young Arsh according to the first paragraph? A. He received a painting as a birthday gift. B. He made a living through painting. C. He showed a lively interest in art. D. He got a place at an art school. 25. Why did Arsh start “Art by Arsh”? A. To raise money by selling his paintings. B. To introduce his paintings to more people. C. To donate some of his paintings to charities. D. To decorate local libraries with his paintings. 26. Which of the following best describes Arsh? A. Warm-hearted and humorous. B. Hard-working and honest. C. Gifted and generous. D. Kind and brave. 27. What does Arsh expect to do in the future? A. Form more nonprofit organizations. B. Learn more about the healing power of art. C. Do more voluntary work at the nursing home. D. Create more opportunities for kids to make art. 【答案】24. C 25. A 26. C 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要介绍的是美国年轻艺术家Arsh通过他的绘画帮助需要帮助的人。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据首段中的“When Arsh was a young boy, his parents, Divya Pal and Sanjeev, signed him up for extracurricular activities such as piano, karate (空手道) and gymnastics, but he preferred art.(当阿什还是个小男孩的时候，他的父母Divya Pal和Sanjeev给他报名参加了钢琴、空手道和体操等课外活动，但他更喜欢艺术。)”可知，虽然父母给Arsh报了很多的课外活动，但Arsh更喜欢艺术，结合下文中的“When Arsh turned 8, he received a watercolor paint set as a birthday gift. He spent all his spare time painting.(阿什8岁时，他收到了一套水彩画作为生日礼物。他把所有的业余时间都用来画画。)”可知，在他8岁时收到一套水彩画作为生日礼物，从此他把所有时间用了画画，由此可知，Arsh对画画有着浓厚的兴趣。故选C项。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Around the same time, Arsh often visited a local nursing home, where his mother works. Spending time there inspired him to start selling his art for a good cause. “I want to help people in need through my paintings,” he said.(大约在同一时间，阿什经常去他母亲工作的当地一家养老院。在那里度过的时光激励他开始为慈善事业出售自己的艺术品。“我想通过我的画帮助有需要的人，”他说。)”可知，Arsh在母亲工作的养老院的经历激励着他开始为慈善事业售卖自己的艺术品，去帮助需要帮助的人，结合第二段的“And so began his fundraising (筹款) program, which he called “Art by Arsh”.(于是开始了他的筹款计划，他称之为“Arsh的艺术”。)”可知，正是他在母亲工作的养老院的经历让Arsh开始为他的慈善事业售卖自己的艺术品筹集资金去帮助需要帮助的人，所以他创办了称之为“Art by Arsh”的筹款计划，由此可知，之所以创办“Art by Arsh”的筹款计划是为了售卖自己的画筹集资金。故选A项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的““I was amazed at how talented he was at such a young age, without any formal training,” said Schaver.(谢弗说：“我很惊讶，他这么年轻，没有受过任何正式训练，就有这么大的天赋。”)”可知，这么年轻没有经过任何正式训练就这么有天赋，由此可知，Arsh是有天赋的，结合倒数第三段中的“He donated his first $1,000 to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in 2018, and has since reached various other charities.(2018年，他向圣裘德儿童研究医院捐赠了第一笔1000美元，此后又捐给了其他各种慈善机构。)”以及尾段中的“He has already started offering free art lessons to local children, and he hopes to expand (扩展) his classes further in the future.(他已经开始为当地的孩子提供免费的艺术课程，他希望在未来进一步扩大他的课程。)”可知，Arsh在2018年捐赠了第一笔1000美元，其后又捐给了其它的慈善机构，并且还给当地孩子提供免费的艺术可成，由此可知，Arsh是很慷慨大方的，所以，Arsh是一个既有天赋有慷慨大方的孩子。故选C项。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据尾段中的““One of my future goals is to make art accessible for kids who want to express themselves,” Arsh said. He has already started offering free art lessons to local children, and he hopes to expand (扩展) his classes further in the future.(“我未来的目标之一是让那些想要表达自己的孩子们能够接触到艺术，”阿什说。他已经开始为当地的孩子提供免费的艺术课程，他希望在未来进一步扩大他的课程。)”可知，他的未来目标是让那些想要表达自己的孩子们接触到艺术，并且现在他已经开始给当地孩子提供免费的艺术课程，由此可知，他希望在未来为孩子创造更多的艺术创作机会。故选D项。 C John Snow was an English physician. His father worked in a coal yard. Snow was the firstborn in the low-income family of nine children. At the age of 14, he had to quit school and get a medical apprenticeship (学徒期). When visiting coal miners as an apprentice, Snow met with cholera—a disease which later became the focus of his scientific research. Snow began his formal medical education in 1836. In 1837, he began to work at the Westminster Hospital. The following year he was admitted as a member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England. Six years later, he received a Doctor of Medicine degree from the University of London. He was admitted to the Royal College of Physicians in1850. Snow is famous for two of his studies. The first study concerned the Broad Street pump (水泵) outbreak of 1854. He used graphs and maps to show the impact of the polluted water coming from the Broad Street pump. Snow reasoned that cholera was caused by a germ (细菌) that spread through polluted water, which diverged from the view held by other physicians that cholera was spread by bad air. The second study was the “Grand Experiment”, also of 1854. In1849, he first published his ideas and observations in an essay, On the Mode of Communication of Cholera. 28. What can we know about John Snow from Paragraph 1? A. He was an English physicist. B. He came from a poor family. C. He was the youngest child in his family. D. He used to be an apprentice in a coal yard. 29. When did he get a Doctor of Medicine degree? A. In 1838. B. In 1843. C. In 1844. D. In 1850. 30. Which of the following words can replace the underlined word? A. Disagreed. B. Distanced. C. Differed. D. Defended. 31. What is the topic of the last paragraph? A. John Snow’s great impact. B. John Snow’s famous essay. C. John Snow’s study method. D. John Snow’s well-known research. 【答案】28. B 29. C 30. C 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了医生John Snow的生平以及他较为著名的两项研究。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段话“Snow was the firstborn in the low-income family of nine children. (斯诺是这个有9个孩子的低收入家庭的长子。)”可知，Snow家里条件不是很好。故选B项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段话“In 1837, he began to work at the Westminster Hospital. The following year he was admitted as a member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England. Six years later, he received a Doctor of Medicine degree from the University of London. (1837年，他开始在威斯敏斯特医院工作。第二年，他被接纳为英国皇家外科学院的成员。六年后，他获得伦敦大学医学博士学位。)”可知，六年后，也就是1837+1+6=1844，故选C项。 【30题详解】 词义猜测题。根据文章第三段话“Snow reasoned that cholera was caused by a germ (细菌) that spread through polluted water, which diverged from the view held by other physicians that cholera was spread by bad air. (斯诺推断霍乱是由一种通过受污染水传播的细菌引起的，这与其他医生认为霍乱是由不良空气传播的观点______。)”可知，斯诺认为水污染是细菌引起的，其他一剩认为是空气传播，很明显这两个观点不一致。differ意为“不同于，持不同意见”。故选C项。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第三段话“Snow is famous for two of his studies. (斯诺以他的两项研究而闻名。)”可知，此句是本段话的中心句，最后一段话主要讲了Snow两个出名的研究。故选D项。 D Want to reduce your risk of dementia (痴呆)? Start counting your steps — you’ll need between 3,800 and 9,800 each day to reduce your risk of mental decline, according to a new study. People between the ages of 40 and 79 who took 9,826 steps per day were 50% less likely to develop dementia within seven years, the study found. Furthermore, people who walked with “purpose” — at a speed over 40 steps a minute — were able to cut their risk of dementia by 57% with just 6,315 steps a day. Even people who walked about 3,800 steps a day at any speed cut their risk by 25%. “That would be enough, at first, for sedentary (久坐不动) people,” said Cruz, a senior researcher in health sciences. “In fact, it is a message that doctors could use to inspire sedentary older adults — 4,000 steps is achievable by many, even those less fit,” he added. “Perhaps, more active and fitter people should aim for 10,000, where we see the largest effects.” But there was an even more interesting result hidden in the study, according to an article entitled “Is 112 the New 10,000?” The largest reduction (降低) in dementia risk — 62% — was achieved by people who walked at a very easy speed of 112 steps per minute for 30 minutes a day, the study found. Earlier research has marked 100 steps a minute as an easy or middle level of strength. The article argued that people looking to reduce their risk of dementia should focus on their walking speed over their walking distance. “We do agree this is a very interesting finding,” said Cruz. “Our take is that strength of stepping matters! Technology could be used to track not only the number of steps but also the speed and so these types of measures can also be applied in commercial watches. More research is needed on this.” 32. What can we learn from Paragraph 2? A. Old people are more likely to have dementia. B. Young people had better walk 9,826 steps a day. C. It is harmful for people over 40 to walk too fast. D. It is good for people to walk about 3,800 steps a day. 33. At what speed can you walk with the least risk of dementia? A. About 3,800 steps a day at any speed. B. About 100 steps a minute a day. C. At a speed over 40 steps a minute for 30 minutes a day. D. At a speed of 112 steps a minute for half an hour a day. 34. What will future studies probably focus on about walking? A. The speed. B. The steps. C. The reasons. D. The benefits. 35. What is the main idea of the text? A. Those who keep walking are less likely to develop dementia. B. Walking each day can cut your risk of dementia but speed matters. C. Walk a certain number of steps each day to cut your risk of dementia. D. The more steps you take, the less risk of dementia you suffer from. 【答案】32. D 33. D 34. A 35. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。新的研究发现，每天步行可以降低患痴呆症的风险，然而速度很重要。文章对此进行了详细介绍。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“Even people who walked about 3,800 steps a day at any speed cut their risk by 25%.(即使是每天以任何速度走3800步左右的人，患病风险也会降低25%。)”可知，从第二段中可以了解到每天走3800步左右对人是有益的。故选D。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段第一句“The largest reduction (降低) in dementia risk — 62% — was achieved by people who walked at a very easy speed of 112 steps per minute for 30 minutes a day, the study found.(研究发现，每天以每分钟112步的轻松速度步行30分钟的人患痴呆症的风险降低幅度最大，达到62%。)”可知，以每分钟112步的速度、每天半小时可以将患痴呆症的风险降到最低。故选D。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段第二句中的“Technology could be used to track not only the number of steps but also the speed and so these types of measures can also be applied in commercial watches. More research is needed on this.(技术不仅可以用于跟踪步数，还可以用于跟踪速度，因此这些类型的测量也可以应用于商业手表。这方面需要更多的研究。)”可知，未来的研究可能会关注步行的速度。故选A。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Want to reduce your risk of dementia (痴呆)? Start counting your steps — you’ll need between 3,800 and 9,800 each day to reduce your risk of mental decline, according to a new study.(想要降低患痴呆症的风险？开始计算你的步数——根据一项新的研究，你每天需要走3800到9800步才能降低智力下降的风险。)”和第六段“The article argued that people looking to reduce their risk of dementia should focus on their walking speed over their walking distance.(这篇文章认为，希望降低患痴呆症风险的人应该关注他们的步行速度而不是步行距离。)”可知，文章主要是讲每天步行可以降低患痴呆症的风险，但速度很重要。故选B。 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够填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Express Thanks to Loved Ones You may feel grateful to your family and friends, but it may not always be easy for you to know how to express that.

Challenging 63. the 64. have achieved 65. if 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。主要通过对长跑，徒步登山等运动的体会的介绍，论证了坚持就会有回报，如果你努力，就会取得成功的道理。 【56题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：这个周末一场马拉松在Salzburg举行，我目前住在这个城市里。该句为“in+关系代词”引导的定语从句修饰city，从句中缺少介词in的宾语，且先行词city指的是地点，所以关系代词应为which。故填which。 【57题详解】 考查形容词。句意：我从来没有跑超过半个小时，所以我很惊讶有些人能坚持跑超过四个小时！此空位于系动词之后，所以此处应该是形容词作表语，amaze的形容词amazed意为“感到惊讶的”符合句意。故填amazed。 【58题详解】 考查形容词。句意：跑步是困难的，因为你必须激励自己坚持下去——它比团队运动更孤独。此空位于系动词之后，所以此处应该是形容词作表语，difficulty的形容词为difficult意为“困难的”符合句意。故填difficult。 59题详解】 考查名词。句意：我以前跑步的时候真的上气不接下气，感觉一点都不好!此空位于介词之后，所以此处为名词作宾语，out of breath为固定短语意为“上气不接下气”符合句意。故填breath。 【60题详解】 考查副词。句意：现在我真地喜欢沿着Salzburg的河边慢跑，感觉我的肌肉在工作并且吸入新鲜的空气。此空位于动词之前，所以应为副词修饰动词enjoy，actual的副词为actually意为“真地”符合句意。故填actually。 【61题详解】 考查现在分词。句意：现在我真地喜欢沿着Salzburg的河边慢跑，感觉我的肌肉在工作并且吸入新鲜的空气。此空为非谓语动词作状语，feel和句子的主语I之间是主动关系，所以使用现在分词形式。故填feeling。 【62题详解】 考查形容词。句意：具有挑战性的锻炼总是有益的。此空位于名词之前，所以应为形容词作定语修饰名词exercise，challenge的形容词为challenging意为“挑战性的”符合句意，因位于句首，首字母大写。故填Challenging. 【63题详解】 考查冠词。句意：徒步旅行很有趣，因为所有的努力，步行上山，都是一天的开始。结合句意可知，此处特指“所有的努力”要用定冠词the表示特指。故填the。 【64题详解】 考查谓语动词。句意：在一天结束的时候，你会觉得自己取得了一些成就。根据句意可知，此处表示过去的动作对现在造成的影响，所以该句使用现在完成时。主语you与achieve之间为主动关系，且主语为第二人称。故填have achieved。 【65题详解】 考查状语从句。句意：这恰恰表明坚持就有回报——如果你努力，你将会成功。根据句意以及句子结构可知，此处应该是表示“如果”为if引导的条件状语从句。故填if。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节 书面表达（满分15分） 66. 假定你是李华，你校英文报正在举行题目为“The person I respect”的英语征文比赛。请你写一篇短文投稿，内容包括： 1．人物的基本情况； 2．具体的原因。 注意： 1．写作词数应为80左右； 2．可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 The person I respect ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 The person I Respect There are many respectable people around us. They may be our teachers, parents or one of our elders.

Simon was a curious boy. He lived with his grandfather. Simon was fond of reading adventure stories. So he was always curious about the store room where his grandfather kept his priceless antiques(古董). Though Simon knew his grandfather did not like anyone to touch his rare collections, he quietly entered the storeroom without his grandfather’s permission one night. Once inside the room, Simon stood on a chair. He lifted the big box wherein his grandfather had kept many valuable watches bought from different countries he had visited. While getting down from the chair, Simon’s elbow(肘部) struck against the chair. When he tried his best to pull his arm out, the box slipped out of his hands and fell onto the floor. All the watches lay all around. To his shock, he found the glass of his grandfather’s favorite watch broken. Simon was afraid that his grandfather would come to know about the broken glass. He started picking up the pieces of glass hurriedly. Simon thought, “My grandmother gifted the watch to my grandfather. This must be one of his most treasured possessions. How could I tell him that his favorite watch had broken? He must be angry with me. If I do not tell him, he will not come to know about it.” Simon got nervous. His heart started beating faster. He put the broken watch back into the box and placed the box back on the shelf. Afterwards, he went to sleep. However, he could not sleep in peace throughout the whole night. The broken watch even showed up in his dream. The next morning, Simon got up much earlier than before. The sleepless night made him realize that holding back the truth itself was more uncomfortable than breaking the watch. “But that watch is Grandpa’s favorite and he told me to be careful of the box before.” Simon said to himself and didn’t dare to face his grandfather. 注意：1. 续写词数150左右； 2. 请在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Though still worried about himself being scolded, Simon finally gathered the courage to see his grandfather. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Simon said, “I was scared at first, but I dared not tell a lie.” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Though still worried about himself being scolded, Simon finally gathered the courage to see his grandfather. He admitted his fault to his grandfather in a low voice. His grandfather said nothing and went to the storeroom. Simon kept standing with his head down. Having returned from the storeroom, his grandfather said, “I felt very angry when you had broken my precious watch that your grandmother gave to me on our first wedding anniversary. But don’t worry. It can be mended.” Simon felt relieved. His grandfather said in a soft voice, “It was brave enough of you to tell me about the broken watch. You knew that I would scold you, didn’t you?” Simon said, “I was scared at first, but I dared not tell a lie.” Simon’s grandfather smiled, “When I was at your age, I also broke my mother’s precious vase. I was scared to admit my mistake. But when I went to confess, she said that she had already known about it. It is not embarrassing to admit our mistakes. Instead, admitting our mistakes actively reflects our responsible attitude.” 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文，文章通过Simon不小心弄坏爷爷收藏的手表后鼓足勇气向爷爷承认错误的故事告诉我们：承认错误需要勇气，但这是摆脱内疚的唯一方式。 【详解】1. 段落续写： 由第一段首句“尽管Simon仍然担心自己会被骂，但他终于鼓起勇气去见他的祖父。”可知，第一段可讲述Simon向爷爷承认错误后，爷爷对此事的反应。 由第二段首句“Simon说：‘一开始我很害怕，但我不敢说谎。’”可知，第二段可讲述得知Simon的内心想法后，爷爷用自己的亲身经历告诉Simon的做法是正确的。 2. 续写线索：鼓足勇气见爷爷——跟着爷爷去收藏室——爷爷告诉Simon他虽然很生气，但手表可以修复——Simon松了口气——爷爷认可Simon的勇气——爷爷用自己的经历告诉Simon承认错误可以表明自己负责的态度。 3. 词汇积累： 行为类 ①承认：admit/acknowledge/confess ②责怪：scold/blame ③表明：reflect/show 情绪类 ①生气：angry/with anger/ pissed off ②放心：relieved/with relief ③勇敢：brave/courageous 【点睛】【高分句型1】I felt very angry when you had broken my precious watch that your grandmother gave to me on our first wedding anniversary.(使用了when引导时间状语从句和that引导定语从句) 【高分句型2】You knew that I would scold you, didn’t you?(使用了that引导宾语从句和反意疑问句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$null
