Here we'll try to help you make a choice. Traditional Team Sports Team sports like basketball, volleyball, football, and softball are probably the most popular sports activities among students. First of all, they don't need perfect skills and are easily accessible. You will likely be able to choose from several options along with your location. Besides keeping fit and healthy, team sports can help you become more responsible, focused, active and learn how to be a team player. Dancing & Yoga Want to have fun doing sports while listening to cool music and relaxing？What can be a better idea than a dancing class？Tango, salsa, hip-hop, swing… You can find the one you really enjoy. The greatest part is that you can perform in concerts, festivals and competitions. Outdoor Exploration Sports If you're into sports activities which let you explore the world and learn new skills at the same time, here are several ideas for you: hiking, rowing, cross-country skiing, rock climbing, cycling… These challenging activities can be done with your best friend, or even alone. You'll see fantastic scenery, have the time of your life, and forget about your daily routine. Unusual Sports Are there any better unusual and fun sports games for students? The following three are rather experimental and challenging and worth a try. Quidditch is adapted from the pages of Harry Potter books. Certainly, the players don't ride brooms in real-life circumstances, but the game is still very entertaining. Roller Derby is a full-contact sport played on wheels by both men and women. It's nothing like any other sports experience. Kickball is another not-so-widely-spread kind of high-energy, fun sports activity for students. 1. What feature do traditional team sports share? A. They need some special equipment. B. They require determination and patience. C. They promote team spirit and responsibility. D. They bring along opportunities of winning medals. 2.

In a literature magazine. C. In a sports meet review. D. In a student pocket guide. B It’s important that kids are encouraged to shoot for the stars when it comes to their dreams. But nothing can replace the impact of seeing someone, especially someone similar to them, making those dreams come true. This is the impact that Mar Galcerán is having now that she’s been appointed to a position in the Spain’s parliament (议会). This makes her Spain's first parliamentarian with Down syndrome (唐氏综合征). Galcerán entered the political world at 18 years old by joining the conservative People’s Party(PP). Ever since then, she’s worked hard to make a positive impact. In doing so, she’s proven to be a qualified candidate for the parliament. In May 2023, the PP created a list of ranked candidates with Galcerán in 20th place. This ranking and a former parliamentarian’s stepping down to take on a new role made way for Galcerán to make history. “It’s extraordinary,” Galcerán says. “Society is starting to see that people with Down syndrome have a lot to contribute, though it’s a very long road.” While the 45-year-old is happy to share that she’s received lots of support, she doesn’t shy away from acknowledging those who question her ability to do her job. “You find all sorts on social media,” she says in regard to the reactions she’s received. “There are people who support me. But there are also others who think I'm not capable. But these are people who don't know me or my background.” Between Galcerán’s inspiring attitude and her determination to make positive changes in Spain, she’s sure to also leave a lasting impact on others who have disabilities, serving as a reminder of what is possible. “I want to learn how to do it well for Spain and more importantly, for those of us who have different abilities,” she shares, adding, “I want people to see me as a person, not just for my disability.” 4. What does the author stress in the first paragraph? A. The power of role models. B. The effects of superstars. C. The approaches to success. D. The importance of interaction. 5. What is the importance of Galcerán’s winning a position of parliamentarian? A. It shows the Spanish recognize her previous experience. B. It serves as a sign that she has made great progress. C. It marks the society begins to value contributions of disabled people. D. It means she has the potential to make more contributions. 6. What is people’s attitude toward Galcerán’s appointment in parliament? A. Doubtful. B. Supportive. C. Uncaring. D. Mixed. 7. What message does Galcerán's story deliver? A. It is wise to pursue practical goals. B. A strong-willed soul can reach his goal. C. Experience helps to promote excellence. D. Life is most beautiful when it is imperfect. C As global warming melts（融化）their snowy habitats, wolverines in the United States have been:listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act, earning them more federal（联邦）protection. The move comes after years of legal argument over the survival prospects of the animals due to climate change and human activities. Currently, an estimated 300 wild wolverines remain in the lower 48 states, living in the Rocky and Cascade mountains of Wyoming, Washington, Montana, Idaho and Oregon. These creatures rely on a snowy, cold environment. They mainly feed on rodents and rabbits, but they also collect the dead bodies of larger animals. Sometimes, they store the bodies for later consumption, using the freezing temperatures of their high-altitude habitats to refrigerate the food. However, as global temperatures continue to rise, finding places to store food and build dens（兽穴）will become increasingly challenging for the animals, scientists say. The USFWS estimates wolverines could lose 23 percent of their habitats within the next 30 years because of climate change — and 63 percent over the next 75 years. Wolverines nearly went extinct in western U. S. in the 1920s because of hunting and trapping for their fur. However, they've managed to hang on — and in May, biologists reported a rare sighting of a wolverine in California, the state's second in 101 years. Officials have debated for decades whether wolverines in the U. S. deserve protection. States, farm bureaus, fossil fuel groups and snowmobile associations have opposed protection, while various conservation groups have fought to have wolverines listed under the Endangered Species Act. In October 2023 the wolverine was officially listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act and the USA government reached a final decision on the federal protection. "We have not paid enough attention to giving this small animal what it needs," says Jeffrey Copeland, a retired biologist with the U. S. Forest Service. "It may be too little. But in this type of situation, it's a good step that we have taken." 8. Which of the following is a reason for the decline in wolverines' population? A. Human agricultural activities in general. B. Loss of habitats due to climate change. C. The wrong decision of the federal government. D. Competition with other animals for food. 9. What does the rare sighting of wolverines in California show? A. Wolverines have become an endangered species. B. Wolverines are reintroduced to western U. S. C. Wolverines have found new habitats. D. Wolverines have been forced to adapt to survive. 10. What can be learned about wolverines according to the text? A. They rely on dead bodies of larger animals for food. B. They live in a snowy cold environment. C. They can easily find places to store food. D. They are extinct in western America. 11. What can be the best title for the text? A. New Challenges for Wolverines B. Wolverines Survive in Western U. S. C. Wolverines Win Federal Protection D. Human Activities Bring an End to Wolverines D A recent study from Penn State has indicated that interactive screen time such as texting’ and gaming is harmful to adolescents’ sleep. The research casts light on how different types of screen usage can variably impact sleep patterns in teens. The study was focused on the sleep habits of 15-year-olds. For the analysis, the team conducted daily surveys with 475 adolescents, inquiring about their screen-based activities; including communication methods and entertainment preferences. Besides, the researchers employed special instruments to accurately track the teens' sleep duration (持续期) over a week. These devices, typically worn on the wrist, provided insight into the participants’ activity levels to infer sleep patterns. The study showed that teens spent an average of two hours per day communicating digitally and around 1 hour playing video games. The experts found that those engaging in interactive screen time before bed spent approximately 30 minutes longer falling asleep compared to those who avoided such activities. And that is what makes the researchers most concerned. And it was not just interactive screen time before bed that affected kids’ sleep, said the researchers. For each hour that kids spent playing video games beyond their usual routine during the day, their sleep was delayed for about 10 minutes. “For a child, losing 30 minutes of sleep at night is significant. It makes it especially arduous for them to get up in the morning for school,” said lead author of the study and postdoctoral scholar David Reichenberger. “Without enough sleep, kids are at increased risk of obesity, as well as poor cognition (认知), emotion regulation and mental health.” “Addressing the problem of what parents can do to help protect their teens’ sleep, its a tricky situation. These tools are really important to everyone nowadays, so it’s hard to put a limit on them, but if you’re really looking out for an adolescent’s health and well-being, then you might consider limiting the more interactive activities, especially in the hour before bed,” said David. 12. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. What the participants did in the study. B. How the participants were selected. C. What the purpose of the research was. D. How the research was conducted. 13. Which of the following has the greatest impact on kids’ sleep? A. Playing video games for 1 hour during the day. B. Engaging in interactive screen time before bed. C. Communicating digitally for 20 minutes in the morning. D. Delaying the regular sleeping time for half an hour. 14. What does the underlined word “arduous” in paragraph 5 mean? A. Common. B. Important. C. Difficult. D. Practical. 15. Why does David regard the situation as “tricky”? A. Digital devices bring both convenience and harm. B. Interactive activities play an important part in modern life. C. Being involved in screen time is harmful to children’s health. D. Increasing kids’ sleeping time may affect their academic performance. 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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Do you know that singing along to your favorite song can lift your mood and make you happy?

I woke up with my son Bisher, who just turned 13 and was in 6th Grade. He was well organized and had an alarm clock so he woke up on time. When Bisher was taking a bath, I had already made breakfast for my family and we were ready to leave. My pet dogs Milo and Jego were having their mealtime too. I was going to my parents' farm with my family in my truck, like I always do during winter. It's an hour's drive from New York City to the farm. I was driving a Mitsubishi Triton and the dogs were at the back of the truck. An hour later, when we all reached the farm, Bisher got so excited that he started to talk to the dogs and imagine what fun they would have during this holiday. When I opened the fence, it was 2:15 pm. In no time I saw my parents' dogs—Jamie and Rocky—rushing into sight, wagging their tails and barking and howling to show their excitement. With all this noisy welcome of dogs, my mom, who was in the kitchen, hurried to open the main door and hugged us tight. After all the meeting and greeting, I went into the room and kept all our luggage. My father is a farmer, my mom is a housewife, and they live on the farm. That night my family were enjoying my mom's special recipe of fish and chips with vegetable soup and sharing old stories of our childhood memories. At that very moment we heard some strange noise of chickens clucking (咯咯叫) and Jamie's continuous barking. Feeling brave, the three of us—my father, Bisher and I—started to follow the barking. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 It was a cold December night and the moon was shining bright. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Upon our return, Bisher told the whole story to my mother. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 20232024学年高二第二学期期中检测 英语 考生注意： 1. 答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号填写在试卷和答题卡上，并将考生号条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡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 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有2分钟的时间将试卷上的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。每段对话仅读一遍。 例：How much is the shirt?

But nothing can replace the impact of seeing someone, especially someone similar to them, making those dreams come true. This is the impact that Mar Galcerán is having now that she’s been appointed to a position in the Spain’s parliament (议会). This makes her Spain's first parliamentarian with Down syndrome (唐氏综合征). Galcerán entered the political world at 18 years old by joining the conservative People’s Party(PP). Ever since then, she’s worked hard to make a positive impact. In doing so, she’s proven to be a qualified candidate for the parliament. In May 2023, the PP created a list of ranked candidates with Galcerán in 20th place. This ranking and a former parliamentarian’s stepping down to take on a new role made way for Galcerán to make history. “It’s extraordinary,” Galcerán says. “Society is starting to see that people with Down syndrome have a lot to contribute, though it’s a very long road.” While the 45-year-old is happy to share that she’s received lots of support, she doesn’t shy away from acknowledging those who question her ability to do her job. “You find all sorts on social media,” she says in regard to the reactions she’s received. “There are people who support me. But there are also others who think I'm not capable. But these are people who don't know me or my background.” Between Galcerán’s inspiring attitude and her determination to make positive changes in Spain, she’s sure to also leave a lasting impact on others who have disabilities, serving as a reminder of what is possible. “I want to learn how to do it well for Spain and more importantly, for those of us who have different abilities,” she shares, adding, “I want people to see me as a person, not just for my disability.” 4. What does the author stress in the first paragraph? A. The power of role models. B. The effects of superstars. C. The approaches to success. D. The importance of interaction. 5.

But nothing can replace the impact of seeing someone, especially someone similar to them, making those dreams come true. This is the impact that Mar Galcerán is having now that she’s been appointed to a position in the Spain’s parliament (议会) . This makes her Spain's first parliamentarian with Down syndrome (唐氏综合征) .”（当涉及到他们的梦想时，鼓励孩子们追求星星是很重要的。但没有什么能取代看到某人，尤其是与他们相似的人，让这些梦想成真的影响。这就是Mar Galcerán被任命为西班牙议会议员后产生的影响。这使她成为西班牙第一位患有唐氏综合症的国会议员）可推知，作者在第一段强调了榜样的力量。故选A项。 5题详解】 细节理解题。根据和第四段““It’s extraordinary,” Galcerán says. “Society is starting to sec that people with Down syndrome have a lot to contribute, though it’s a very long road.””（“这是非凡的，” Galcerán说。“社会开始意识到，唐氏综合症患者可以做出很大贡献，尽管这是一条很长的路。”）可知，Galcerán赢得国会议员席位的重要性是标志着社会开始重视残疾人的贡献。故选C项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段“ “You find all sorts on social media,” she says in regard to the reactions she’s received. “There are people who support me. But there are also others who think I'm not capable. But these are people who don't know me or my background.””（“你可以在社交媒体上发现各种各样的人，”她谈到自己收到的反应时说。“有人支持我。但也有人认为我没有能力。但这些人并不了解我，也不了解我的背景。”）可推知，人们对Galcerán在议会中的任命的态度是好坏参半的。故选D项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Between Galcerán’s inspiring attitude and her determination to make positive changes in Spain, she’s sure to also leave a lasting impact on others who have disabilities, serving as a reminder of what is possible.”（Galcerán鼓舞人心的态度和她在西班牙做出积极改变的决心之间，她肯定也会给其他残疾人留下持久的影响，提醒他们什么是可能的。）以及最后一段““I want to learn how to do it well for Spain and more importantly, for those of us who have different abilities,” she shares, adding, “I want people to see me as a person, not just for my disability.””（“我想学习如何为西班牙做好这件事，更重要的是，为我们这些有不同能力的人做好这件事，”她分享道，并补充说，“我希望人们把我看作一个人，而不仅仅是我的残疾。”）可推知，Galcerán的故事告诉我们意志坚强的人可以达到他的目标。故选B项。 C As global warming melts（融化）their snowy habitats, wolverines in the United States have been:listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act, earning them more federal（联邦的）protection. The move comes after years of legal argument over the survival prospects of the animals due to climate change and human activities. Currently, an estimated 300 wild wolverines remain in the lower 48 states, living in the Rocky and Cascade mountains of Wyoming, Washington, Montana, Idaho and Oregon. These creatures rely on a snowy, cold environment. They mainly feed on rodents and rabbits, but they also collect the dead bodies of larger animals. Sometimes, they store the bodies for later consumption, using the freezing temperatures of their high-altitude habitats to refrigerate the food. However, as global temperatures continue to rise, finding places to store food and build dens（兽穴）will become increasingly challenging for the animals, scientists say. The USFWS estimates wolverines could lose 23 percent of their habitats within the next 30 years because of climate change — and 63 percent over the next 75 years. Wolverines nearly went extinct in western U. S. in the 1920s because of hunting and trapping for their fur. However, they've managed to hang on — and in May, biologists reported a rare sighting of a wolverine in California, the state's second in 101 years. Officials have debated for decades whether wolverines in the U. S. deserve protection. States, farm bureaus, fossil fuel groups and snowmobile associations have opposed protection, while various conservation groups have fought to have wolverines listed under the Endangered Species Act. In October 2023 the wolverine was officially listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act and the USA government reached a final decision on the federal protection. "We have not paid enough attention to giving this small animal what it needs," says Jeffrey Copeland, a retired biologist with the U. S. Forest Service. "It may be too little. But in this type of situation, it's a good step that we have taken." 8. Which of the following is a reason for the decline in wolverines' population? A. Human agricultural activities in general. B. Loss of habitats due to climate change. C. The wrong decision of the federal government. D. Competition with other animals for food. 9. What does the rare sighting of wolverines in California show? A. Wolverines have become an endangered species. B. Wolverines are reintroduced to western U. S. C. Wolverines have found new habitats. D. Wolverines have been forced to adapt to survive. 10. What can be learned about wolverines according to the text? A. They rely on dead bodies of larger animals for food. B. They live in a snowy cold environment. C. They can easily find places to store food. D. They are extinct in western America. 11. What can be the best title for the text? A. New Challenges for Wolverines B. Wolverines Survive in Western U. S. C. Wolverines Win Federal Protection D. Human Activities Bring an End to Wolverines 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了随着全球变暖融化了它们的栖息地，美国的狼獾已被列入《濒危物种法》的濒危物种名单，为它们赢得了更多的联邦保护。2023年10月，根据《濒危物种法》，狼獾被正式列为受威胁物种，美国政府就联邦保护做出了最终决定。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“As global warming melts（融化）their snowy habitats, wolverines in the United States have been: listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act, earning them more federal（联邦的）protection. The move comes after years of legal argument over the survival prospects of the animals due to climate change and human activities.”（随着全球变暖融化了它们的栖息地，美国的狼獾已被列入《濒危物种法》的濒危物种名单，为它们赢得了更多的联邦保护。由于气候变化和人类活动，动物的生存前景引发了多年的法律争论。）可知，由于气候变化导致的栖息地丧失是狼獾数量下降的原因。故选B项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Wolverines nearly went extinct in western U. S. in the 1920s because of hunting and trapping for their fur. However, they've managed to hang on—and in May, biologists reported a rare sighting of a wolverine in California, the state's second in 101 years.”（20世纪20年代，美国西部的狼獾几乎灭绝，因为人们为了获取它们的皮毛而捕猎和诱捕。然而，它们成功地坚持了下来——今年5月，生物学家报告称，在加州罕见发现狼獾，这是该州101年来第二次发现狼獾。）可推知，加州罕见的狼獾现象说明了狼獾已经成为濒危物种。故选A项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“These creatures rely on a snowy, cold environment.”（这些动物依靠多雪寒冷的环境生存。）可知，狼獾生活在下雪的寒冷环境中。故选B项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第一段中“As global warming melts their snowy habitats, wolverines in the United States have been :listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act, earning them more federal protection.”（随着全球变暖融化了它们的栖息地，美国的狼獾已被列入《濒危物种法》的濒危物种名单，为它们赢得了更多的联邦保护。）和最后一段中“In October 2023 the wolverine was officially listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act and the USA government reached a final decision on the federal protection.”（2023年10月，根据《濒危物种法》，狼獾被正式列为受威胁物种，美国政府就联邦保护做出了最终决定。）可知，文章主要讲的是随着全球变暖融化了它们的栖息地，美国的狼獾已被列入《濒危物种法》的濒危物种名单，为它们赢得了更多的联邦保护。2023年10月，根据《濒危物种法》，狼獾被正式列为受威胁物种，美国政府就联邦保护做出了最终决定。由此可知，文章最好的标题是“狼獾赢得了联邦保护”。故选C项。 D A recent study from Penn State has indicated that interactive screen time such as texting’ and gaming is harmful to adolescents’ sleep. The research casts light on how different types of screen usage can variably impact sleep patterns in teens. The study was focused on the sleep habits of 15-year-olds. For the analysis, the team conducted daily surveys with 475 adolescents, inquiring about their screen-based activities; including communication methods and entertainment preferences. Besides, the researchers employed special instruments to accurately track the teens' sleep duration (持续期) over a week. These devices, typically worn on the wrist, provided insight into the participants’ activity levels to infer sleep patterns. The study showed that teens spent an average of two hours per day communicating digitally and around 1 hour playing video games. The experts found that those engaging in interactive screen time before bed spent approximately 30 minutes longer falling asleep compared to those who avoided such activities. And that is what makes the researchers most concerned. And it was not just interactive screen time before bed that affected kids’ sleep, said the researchers. For each hour that kids spent playing video games beyond their usual routine during the day, their sleep was delayed for about 10 minutes. “For a child, losing 30 minutes of sleep at night is significant. It makes it especially arduous for them to get up in the morning for school,” said lead author of the study and postdoctoral scholar David Reichenberger. “Without enough sleep, kids are at increased risk of obesity, as well as poor cognition (认知), emotion regulation and mental health.” “Addressing the problem of what parents can do to help protect their teens’ sleep, its a tricky situation. These tools are really important to everyone nowadays, so it’s hard to put a limit on them, but if you’re really looking out for an adolescent’s health and well-being, then you might consider limiting the more interactive activities, especially in the hour before bed,” said David. 12. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. What the participants did in the study. B. How the participants were selected. C. What the purpose of the research was. D. How the research was conducted. 13. Which of the following has the greatest impact on kids’ sleep? A. Playing video games for 1 hour during the day. B. Engaging in interactive screen time before bed. C. Communicating digitally for 20 minutes in the morning. D. Delaying the regular sleeping time for half an hour. 14. What does the underlined word “arduous” in paragraph 5 mean? A. Common. B. Important. C. Difficult. D. Practical. 15. Why does David regard the situation as “tricky”? A. Digital devices bring both convenience and harm. B. Interactive activities play an important part in modern life. C. Being involved in screen time is harmful to children’s health. D. Increasing kids’ sleeping time may affect their academic performance. 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15.

I woke up with my son Bisher, who just turned 13 and was in 6th Grade. He was well organized and had an alarm clock so he woke up on time. When Bisher was taking a bath, I had already made breakfast for my family and we were ready to leave. My pet dogs Milo and Jego were having their mealtime too. I was going to my parents' farm with my family in my truck, like I always do during winter. It's an hour's drive from New York City to the farm. I was driving a Mitsubishi Triton and the dogs were at the back of the truck. An hour later, when we all reached the farm, Bisher got so excited that he started to talk to the dogs and imagine what fun they would have during this holiday. When I opened the fence, it was 2:15 pm. In no time I saw my parents' dogs—Jamie and Rocky—rushing into sight, wagging their tails and barking and howling to show their excitement. With all this noisy welcome of dogs, my mom, who was in the kitchen, hurried to open the main door and hugged us tight. After all the meeting and greeting, I went into the room and kept all our luggage. My father is a farmer, my mom is a housewife, and they live on the farm. That night my family were enjoying my mom's special recipe of fish and chips with vegetable soup and sharing old stories of our childhood memories. At that very moment we heard some strange noise of chickens clucking (咯咯叫) and Jamie's continuous barking. Feeling brave, the three of us—my father, Bisher and I—started to follow the barking. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 It was a cold December night and the moon was shining bright. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Upon our return, Bisher told the whole story to my mother. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】It was a cold December night and the moon was shining bright. When we almost reached the henhouse, the clucking seemed louder and we saw the chickens jumping up and down in panic. Upon closer inspection, we discovered a fox, which had managed to sneak into the henhouse somehow. With his seasoned country wisdom and swift action, my father scared the creature away, ensuring the safety of our feathered friends. Bisher watched closely, soaking in the experience, his eyes wide with a mix of awe and relief. Upon our return, Bisher told the whole story to my mother. It was really an eventful night and my mother listened attentively, giving some smart remarks from time to time. The rest of the night unfolded in a comfortable glow, with more storytelling and laughter echoing through the farmhouse, solidifying yet another cherished memory spent together on this beloved family farm. The cold Saturday night was transformed into an adventure that bound us together, reinforcing the importance of family, tradition, and the simple joys of rural life. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了主人公和家人一起回到农场度假的故事。当他们到达农场时，家里的狗狗们非常兴奋，欢迎他们的到来。在享用美味的晚餐时，他们听到了一些异常的声音，发现了一只潜入鸡舍的狐狸。主人公的父亲及时采取行动，将狐狸赶走，保护了家里的鸡。这次事件让家人们度过了一个充满冒险和欢乐的夜晚，加深了他们之间的情感纽带。文章强调了家庭、传统和乡村生活中的简单快乐的重要性。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“那是十二月的一个寒冷的夜晚，月光皎洁。”可知，第一段可描写我们到鸡舍后发现的情况。 ②由第二段首句内容“我们一回来，Bisher就把整个事情告诉了我母亲。”可知，第二段可描写作者母亲听着Bisher讲述的事情过程以及一家人度过愉快的夜晚。 2.续写线索：到鸡舍——发现一只狐狸——作者父亲赶走狐狸——比舍尔仔细观察——比舍尔把事情告诉作者母亲——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①到达：reached /got to/arrived ②确保：ensuring /guaranteeing ③.变成：transformed /changed 情绪类 ①.惊慌地：in panic /in alarm ②.乐趣：joys / pleasure 【点睛】[高分句型1].
