His broad life experiences would become the background for his writing. London, loved to read. As a teenager, he spent many hours educating himself at the Oakland, California, public library. He attended college at the University of California at Berkeley, but he stayed for only six months. He though Berkeley was “not lively enough” and wanted to do something more exciting. London wrote stories about working people and the hard times they had making a living. He knew their problems first hand. He worked as a sailor, farmer, factory employee, railroad worker, and gold prospector, to name just a few of his many jobs. London grew up near the waterfront in Oakland. He loved the water. When he was fifteen years old, he bought a small sailboat called a sloop. Later he sailed to Japan on a schooner, which is much large sailing boat. Like many people of the time, London caught the Klondike Gold Rush Fever. In 1897, he headed for Alaska. He didn’t find gold, but he discovered something even more valuable. He discovered that people enjoyed listening to the stories he made up with his vivid imagination. London entertained the miners with story after story. Later, using his experiences during the Gold Rush, he created many more colorful stories. London resolved to live a full, exciting life. He once said, “I would rather be a superb meteor (流星), every atom of me in magnificent glow,than a sleepy and permanent planet.” Each day, he pushed himself. Once London determined that he was going to be a writer,nothing could stop him. His goal was to write at least one thousand words everyday. He refused to stop even when he was sick. In eighteen years, the writer published fifty-one books and hundreds of articles. He was the best-selling and highest-paid author of his day. Many people also considered him to be the best writer. White Fang and The Call of the Wild are his most famous stories and are about surviving in the Alaskan wilderness.

C Total solar eclipses (日食) have scared people since time out of mind. The first record of one, preserved on a clay tablet found at Ugarit, once a trade city but destroyed later in Syria, is believed from its age and location to describe either an eclipse that happened in 1375 BC or one in 1223 BC. Legendary explanations for eclipses include the Sun being eaten by dogs, frogs or dragons. The reality is not romantic. Why are total ones, like the one coming on April 8, so rare? Solar eclipses are a special case of phenomena called transits and occultations, in which an intervening (介于中间) heavenly body stops light from a star reaching an observer. If the blocking body appears smaller in the sky than the star, the result is called a transit and looks like a dark spot crossing the star’s surface. If the blocking object appears larger than the star, the star disappears completely—an occultation. A total eclipse is an occultation. Solar eclipses may be either of these things, since the apparent sizes in the sky of the Sun and the Moon, viewed from Earth, are almost identical. If the Moon orbited Earth in the same plane as Earth orbits the Sun, eclipses would happen every month, but would be total only in the tropics (热带地区). In reality, the average interval between total eclipses is 18 months, and they may be seen from time to time all over the world. The path of totality across Earth’s surface is narrow and the period short (a maximum of just over seven and a half minutes). Outside these boundaries, the Sun will appear partially eclipsed, looking like a pie that something has taken a bite from. The Great North American Eclipse, as it has been called, will be a sight to be hold on April 8. But it should also be cherished, because total eclipses of the Sun will not happen for ever. Tidal friction (潮汐摩擦) causes the Moon to move away from Earth at 3.8 cm a year, making it appear smaller and smaller in the sky. In 600 million years or so the last, short totality will occur. 8. What does the clay tablet of Ugarit represent? A. Some figures of ancient animals. B. The Sun being eaten by some animals. C. Ancient people who were hunting for animals. D. The earliest total solar eclipse recorded. 9. How does the author develop paragraph 2? A. By listing statistics. B. By giving definitions. C. By giving examples. D. By analyzing cause and effect. 10. What can we learn about total solar eclipses from paragraph 3? A. Their duration is relatively longer. B. They take place every month actually. C. They are visible only from a narrow path. D. They look like a bite taken out of the Sun. 11. What makes total solar eclipses so rare? A. The moving-away Moon. B. The stronger tide on Earth. C. The smaller attraction of the Moon for Earth. D. The changing distance between the Sun and Earth. D The message is drummed into us from childhood: forgive people who’ve wronged you, because it’s the right thing to do. Forgiveness is a virtue, we’re told, the only way for us to truly move on and heal. But forgiving someone is not always what’s best for us. In fact, if someone has hurt you deeply and the relationship isn’t healthy, trying to “fix” things can do more harm than good. Most of us would probably agree that forgiving a wrongdoer means letting go of negative feelings like anger towards them. Actually it pressures us to minimize our feelings and revise our boundaries — to say “it’s OK” when for us, it isn’t. And when someone doesn’t make us feel seen or safe, forgiving them can actually weaken our self-respect. A 2010 research paper published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology called this “the doormat effect”. It found that people who forgave partners that didn’t make them feel valued had less respect for themselves, along with a weakened sense of self. If you keep on forgiving someone who’s done wrong, it can encourage that person to keep hurting you. That’s what 2011 research by psychology professor James K McNulty argues. He looked at how 72 newlywed couples expressed forgiveness towards acts of aggression (攻击性), and whether this caused any changes in the wrongdoer’s behaviour. He found that when a partner was more likely to forgive those acts, the aggressor was more likely to keep committing them. This is because facing the consequences of their actions is what motivates people to change their ways, and being offered a clean sheet can allow them to avoid making changes. Forgiving frequent and major offenses (冒犯), like verbal or physical abuse, can do more harm than good. What if, instead of looking to forgiveness like a magic medicine, we put our energies towards accepting a situation for what it is? This way, we can focus on recognizing what happened and coming to terms with it, however that looks for us and without any sense of obligation towards our offender. It’ll still be a process, sure, but it’s one centred around you and your needs. 12. What will happen if we forgive a wrongdoer according to “the doormat effect”? A. We’ll be free from negative thoughts. B. The relationship will be strengthened. C. The wrongdoer will change his behavior. D. We’ll have less self-respect and self-awareness. 13. How does the writer mainly illustrate his argument? A. By making comparisons. B. By listing examples. C. By citing research results. D. By giving definitions. 14. What can be concluded from James K McNulty’s research? A Forgiving a wrongdoer’s behavior stops him from hurting others. B. Facing the consequences of aggression does more harm than good. C. Ignoring major offenses encourages a wrongdoer’s acts of aggression. D. Forgiving frequent aggression prevents a wrongdoer from making changes. 15. What does the writer suggest readers do? A. Forgive and forget. B. Learn to take the situation as it is. C. Center on yourself. D. Keep on good terms with offenders. 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。选项中有两处为多余选项。 How do I get to know a person’s character? If you are trying to assess a person’s character, make sure you do not rely heavily on factors that can be misleading. ___16___. Also, pay attention to his attitude to distinguish how it impacts his life. Whether or not a person is honest says a lot about his character.

The level of commitment a person displays indicates the type of character he has. “Commitment” often causes people to instantly think of intimate (亲密的) relationships. ___18___.

It is often possible, however, to get some idea of his manner of interaction through conversation. When you are trying to assess someone’s character, remember that it consists of qualities and habits that form his identity. ___20___.

This includes factors such as manner of dress or the actions of family members. B. You can tell a lot about a person’s character by observing how he treats other people. C. It also counts whether or not he thinks truthfulness is an important quality. D. Instead, observe the individual’s ability to tell the truth and to commit. E.

It was a summer program our school participated in, where biology students earned extra credit by teaching little kids about some of the animals. I needed to increase my biology grade, so I asked my friend Sue Wang to be my partner. “Melanie, I’ll do this with you,” she said, “but I’ll do the talking. No way will I handle the animals!” That was OK with me. During the training course, our instructor, Mr. Lindsey came to Sue and me and said, “OK, girls, your animal is a boa(蟒蛇).” I felt myself go cold. “I have to handle a boa?” That night, I had a nightmare. I was carrying the snake around a classroom, showing the kids, when all of a sudden it started constricting(收紧). It squeezed and squeezed, and I couldn’t breathe! I woke up in a sweat, my body rigid. Next day I told my instructor. “Sure you can do it,” he said. He slid the door of the snake carrier open. “Now put your elbow in—slowly —and wait for him to crawl on your arm. Good, that’s the way.” He wasn’t wet or slimy. He was dry and soft! But it was scary! Mr. Lindsey stood beside me. “Relax, Melanie. You need to show him you aren’t afraid. He needs to trust you, and you need to trust him.” Yeah, right. He didn’t do anything. Awesome! I named him Bo. After a few school visits, I began to really like my boa and was pretty much at ease with him. Then came the day I will never forget. As usual, I opened the carrier and took him out. After Sue talked about how boas live mostly in rain forests in Central and South America, I walked around the classroom, saying, “Don’t be afraid. See, he is nice. You can touch him gently, here, on his back. His name is Bo.” Most of the kids actually did touch him, and everything went fine until one boy, for some unknown reasons, tapped Bo on the head. I froze. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卷的相应位置作答。 My worst nightmare came true! _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I closed the carrier and signaled the kids to come inside. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1-5 ABCBA 6-10 CBBCB 11-15 CACCB 16-20 CAABA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 武威六中教育集团2023—2024学年度第二学期第二次阶段性考试 高二年级英语试卷 满分: 150分 建议时间: 120分钟 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有 10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

He knew their problems first hand. He worked as a sailor, farmer, factory employee, railroad worker, and gold prospector, to name just a few of his many jobs. London grew up near the waterfront in Oakland. He loved the water. When he was fifteen years old, he bought a small sailboat called a sloop. Later he sailed to Japan on a schooner, which is much large sailing boat. Like many people of the time, London caught the Klondike Gold Rush Fever. In 1897, he headed for Alaska. He didn’t find gold, but he discovered something even more valuable. He discovered that people enjoyed listening to the stories he made up with his vivid imagination. London entertained the miners with story after story. Later, using his experiences during the Gold Rush, he created many more colorful stories. London resolved to live a full, exciting life. He once said, “I would rather be a superb meteor (流星), every atom of me in magnificent glow,than a sleepy and permanent planet.” Each day, he pushed himself. Once London determined that he was going to be a writer,nothing could stop him. His goal was to write at least one thousand words everyday. He refused to stop even when he was sick. In eighteen years, the writer published fifty-one books and hundreds of articles. He was the best-selling and highest-paid author of his day. Many people also considered him to be the best writer. White Fang and The Call of the Wild are his most famous stories and are about surviving in the Alaskan wilderness. Readers can enjoy Jack London’s energy and his talent for telling wonderful stories each time they open one of his novels. 4. Why was Jack London able to write on many topics? A.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。介绍了杰克·伦敦，一位美国作家，畅销小说《野性的呼唤》及《白牙》的作者，他也是名记者及社会运动家，支持社会主义及工会的建立。他有一句格言：人生不只是握有一副好牌，有时候也要把一副坏牌打好。 ​​​ ​​​​ 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“During his life, London worked at many jobs. His broad life experiences would become the background for his writing.(在他的一生中，London做过很多工作。他广泛的生活经历成为他写作的背景。)”可知，杰克·伦敦能写出很多话题是因为他有很多工作和很丰富的人生经历。故选B。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段的“He attended college at the University of California at Berkeley, but he stayed for only six months. He thought Berkeley was “not lively enough” and wanted to do something more exciting.(他曾就读于加州大学伯克利分校，但只待了六个月。他认为伯克利“不够活跃”，想做一些更令人兴奋的事情。)”可知，杰克·伦敦没有完成加州大学的学业，因为他对这里的大学生活不太感兴趣。故选D。 【6题详解】 句意猜测题。根据画线句后的“Each day, he pushed himself. Once London determined that he was going to be a writer,nothing could stop him. His goal was to write at least one thousand words everyday. He refused to stop even when he was sick. (每天，他都督促自己。一旦伦敦决定他要成为一名作家，就没有什么能阻止他。他的目标是每天至少写1000字。即使生病了，他也不肯停下来。)”可知，杰克·伦敦目标远大，一旦他下定决心，就全力以赴。因此推断画线句“I would rather be a superb meteor(流星), every atom of me in magnificent glow,than a sleepy and permanent planet.(我宁愿做一颗华丽的流星，我的每一个原子都闪耀着壮丽的光辉，也不愿做一颗沉睡的永恒的行星。)”是“志存高远，奋斗成功。”的意思。 故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段内容“Jack London, one of America’s major writers of adventure tales, was born in California in 1876. During his life, London worked at many jobs. His broad life experiences would become the background for his writing.(杰克·伦敦，美国著名的冒险故事作家之一，1876年出生于加利福尼亚。在他的一生中，London做过很多工作。他广泛的生活经历将成为他写作的背景。)”并通读全文得知，文章主要介绍了美国冒险小说作家杰克·伦敦以及他的作品，成长经历等，所以作者写这篇文章的目的是提供有关杰克·伦敦的信息。故选C。 C Total solar eclipses (日食) have scared people since time out of mind. The first record of one, preserved on a clay tablet found at Ugarit, once a trade city but destroyed later in Syria, is believed from its age and location to describe either an eclipse that happened in 1375 BC or one in 1223 BC. Legendary explanations for eclipses include the Sun being eaten by dogs, frogs or dragons. The reality is not romantic. Why are total ones, like the one coming on April 8, so rare? Solar eclipses are a special case of phenomena called transits and occultations, in which an intervening (介于中间的) heavenly body stops light from a star reaching an observer. If the blocking body appears smaller in the sky than the star, the result is called a transit and looks like a dark spot crossing the star’s surface. If the blocking object appears larger than the star, the star disappears completely—an occultation. A total eclipse is an occultation. Solar eclipses may be either of these things, since the apparent sizes in the sky of the Sun and the Moon, viewed from Earth, are almost identical. If the Moon orbited Earth in the same plane as Earth orbits the Sun, eclipses would happen every month, but would be total only in the tropics (热带地区). In reality, the average interval between total eclipses is 18 months, and they may be seen from time to time all over the world. The path of totality across Earth’s surface is narrow and the period short (a maximum of just over seven and a half minutes). Outside these boundaries, the Sun will appear partially eclipsed, looking like a pie that something has taken a bite from. The Great North American Eclipse, as it has been called, will be a sight to be hold on April 8. But it should also be cherished, because total eclipses of the Sun will not happen for ever. Tidal friction (潮汐摩擦) causes the Moon to move away from Earth at 3.8 cm a year, making it appear smaller and smaller in the sky. In 600 million years or so the last, short totality will occur. 8. What does the clay tablet of Ugarit represent? A. Some figures of ancient animals. B. The Sun being eaten by some animals. C. Ancient people who were hunting for animals. D. The earliest total solar eclipse recorded. 9. How does the author develop paragraph 2? A By listing statistics. B. By giving definitions. C. By giving examples. D. By analyzing cause and effect. 10. What can we learn about total solar eclipses from paragraph 3? A. Their duration is relatively longer. B. They take place every month actually. C. They are visible only from a narrow path. D. They look like a bite taken out of the Sun. 11. What makes total solar eclipses so rare? A. The moving-away Moon. B. The stronger tide on Earth. C. The smaller attraction of the Moon for Earth. D. The changing distance between the Sun and Earth. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了日全食罕见的原因。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“The first record of one, preserved on a clay tablet found at Ugarit, once a trade city but destroyed later in Syria, is believed from its age and location to describe either an eclipse that happened in 1375 BC or one in 1223 BC. (最早的日食记录保存在Ugarit的一块泥板上，乌加里特曾是一个贸易城市，但后来在叙利亚被摧毁。从它的年代和位置来看，人们认为它可以描述发生在公元前1375年或公元前1223年的日食。)”可知，Ugarit的一块泥板描绘了第一份日全食的事实，这是有记录以来最早的日全食。故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Solar eclipses are a special case of phenomena called transits and occultations, in which an intervening (介于中间的) heavenly body stops light from a star reaching an observer. If the blocking body appears smaller in the sky than the star, the result is called a transit and looks like a dark spot crossing the star’s surface. If the blocking object appears larger than the star, the star disappears completely—an occultation. A total eclipse is an occultation. (日食是一种特殊的现象，被称为凌日和掩星，在这种现象中，一个介入的天体阻挡了来自恒星的光到达观测者。如果阻塞体在天空中看起来比恒星小，结果就被称为凌日，看起来像一个穿过恒星表面的黑点。如果被遮挡的物体看起来比恒星大，恒星就会完全消失——这就是掩星。日全食就是掩星。)”可知，第二段主要阐释了transit（凌日）和 occultation（掩星）两种自然现象，对这两种现象给出了定义。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“The path of totality across Earth’s surface is narrow and the period short (a maximum of just over seven and a half minutes). (全食穿过地球表面的路径很窄，周期也很短（最长不过7分半钟）。)”可知，日全食穿过地球表面的路径很窄，周期也很短（最长不过7分半钟）。由此可推断，日全食可见的路径窄。故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Tidal friction (潮汐摩擦) causes the Moon to move away from Earth at 3.8 cm a year, making it appear smaller and smaller in the sky. (潮汐摩擦使月球以每年3.8厘米的速度远离地球，使它在天空中显得越来越小。)”可知，潮汐摩擦导致月球逐渐远离地球，使其在天空中显得越来越小。由此可知，我们以后再想见到日全食将会越来越难。故选A。 D The message is drummed into us from childhood: forgive people who’ve wronged you, because it’s the right thing to do. Forgiveness is a virtue, we’re told, the only way for us to truly move on and heal. But forgiving someone is not always what’s best for us. In fact, if someone has hurt you deeply and the relationship isn’t healthy, trying to “fix” things can do more harm than good. Most of us would probably agree that forgiving a wrongdoer means letting go of negative feelings like anger towards them. Actually it pressures us to minimize our feelings and revise our boundaries — to say “it’s OK” when for us, it isn’t. And when someone doesn’t make us feel seen or safe, forgiving them can actually weaken our self-respect. A 2010 research paper published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology called this “the doormat effect”. It found that people who forgave partners that didn’t make them feel valued had less respect for themselves, along with a weakened sense of self. If you keep on forgiving someone who’s done wrong, it can encourage that person to keep hurting you. That’s what 2011 research by psychology professor James K McNulty argues. He looked at how 72 newlywed couples expressed forgiveness towards acts of aggression (攻击性), and whether this caused any changes in the wrongdoer’s behaviour. He found that when a partner was more likely to forgive those acts, the aggressor was more likely to keep committing them. This is because facing the consequences of their actions is what motivates people to change their ways, and being offered a clean sheet can allow them to avoid making changes. Forgiving frequent and major offenses (冒犯), like verbal or physical abuse, can do more harm than good. What if, instead of looking to forgiveness like a magic medicine, we put our energies towards accepting a situation for what it is? This way, we can focus on recognizing what happened and coming to terms with it, however that looks for us and without any sense of obligation towards our offender. It’ll still be a process, sure, but it’s one centred around you and your needs. 12. What will happen if we forgive a wrongdoer according to “the doormat effect”? A. We’ll be free from negative thoughts. B. The relationship will be strengthened. C. The wrongdoer will change his behavior. D. We’ll have less self-respect and self-awareness. 13. How does the writer mainly illustrate his argument? A. By making comparisons. B. By listing examples. C. By citing research results. D. By giving definitions. 14. What can be concluded from James K McNulty’s research? A. Forgiving a wrongdoer’s behavior stops him from hurting others. B. Facing the consequences of aggression does more harm than good. C. Ignoring major offenses encourages a wrongdoer’s acts of aggression. D. Forgiving frequent aggression prevents a wrongdoer from making changes. 15. What does the writer suggest readers do? A. Forgive and forget. B. Learn to take the situation as it is. C. Center on yourself. D. Keep on good terms with offenders. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文，文章主要讨论了原谅的必要性，作者认为原谅确实是一件美好的事情，但原谅他人并不总是对我们有益，有时原谅可能弊大于利，尤其是在关系不健康的情况下，试图“修复”事情可能会带来更多的伤害，所以原谅别人有时要视情况而定。文章通过引用研究结果来支持这个观点。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“It found that people who forgave partners that didn’t make them feel valued had less respect for themselves, along with a weakened sense of self.”（那些原谅不让他们感到被重视的伙伴的人对自己的尊重度降低，自我感也减弱。）可知，如果我们原谅一个错事者，我们的自尊和自我意识也会减少。故选D。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“A 2010 research paper published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology called this “the doormat effect””（2010年发表在《个性与社会心理学杂志》的一篇研究论文将这种现象称为“门垫效应”。）以及第三段中“That’s what 2011 research by psychology professor James K McNulty argues.”（这是心理学教授James K . McNulty 2011年的一项研究得出的结论。）可知，作者主要是通过引用研究成果阐述他的论点的。故选C项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段中“If you keep on forgiving someone who’s done wrong, it can encourage that person to keep hurting you. That’s what 2011 research by psychology professor James K McNulty argues. He looked at how 72 newlywed couples expressed forgiveness towards acts of aggression ( 攻击性 ), and whether this caused any changes in the wrongdoer’s behaviour. He found that when a partner was more likely to forgive those acts, the aggressor was more likely to keep committing them.”（如果你一直原谅做错的人，那只会鼓励那个人继续伤害你。这是心理学教授詹姆斯·K·麦克纳尔蒂(James K . McNulty) 2011年的一项研究得出的结论。他观察了72对新婚夫妇如何表达对侵犯行为的原谅(攻击)，以及这是否会改变作恶者的行为。他发现，当一个伙伴更可能原谅这些行为时，攻击者更可能继续犯下这些行为。）可知，从James K McNulty的研究中得出的结论是，原谅频繁的攻击行为会阻止一个做错事的人做出改变，他们更可能继续犯下这些行为。故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“What if, instead of looking to forgiveness like a magic medicine, we put our energies towards accepting a situation for what it is? This way, we can focus on recognizing what happened and coming to terms with it”（如果我们不是把宽恕当作一剂灵丹妙药，而是把精力放在接受现状上呢？这样，我们就可以专注于认识到发生了什么，并接受它。）可知，作者建议读者学会接受现状。故选B项。 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。选项中有两处为多余选项。 How do I get to know a person’s character?

It was a summer program our school participated in, where biology students earned extra credit by teaching little kids about some of the animals. I needed to increase my biology grade, so I asked my friend Sue Wang to be my partner. “Melanie, I’ll do this with you,” she said, “but I’ll do the talking. No way will I handle the animals!” That was OK with me. During the training course, our instructor, Mr. Lindsey came to Sue and me and said, “OK, girls, your animal is a boa(蟒蛇).” I felt myself go cold. “I have to handle a boa?” That night, I had a nightmare. I was carrying the snake around a classroom, showing the kids, when all of a sudden it started constricting(收紧). It squeezed and squeezed, and I couldn’t breathe! I woke up in a sweat, my body rigid. Next day I told my instructor. “Sure you can do it,” he said. He slid the door of the snake carrier open. “Now put your elbow in—slowly —and wait for him to crawl on your arm. Good, that’s the way.” He wasn’t wet or slimy. He was dry and soft! But it was scary! Mr. Lindsey stood beside me. “Relax, Melanie. You need to show him you aren’t afraid. He needs to trust you, and you need to trust him.” Yeah, right. He didn’t do anything. Awesome! I named him Bo. After a few school visits, I began to really like my boa and was pretty much at ease with him. Then came the day I will never forget. As usual, I opened the carrier and took him out. After Sue talked about how boas live mostly in rain forests in Central and South America, I walked around the classroom, saying, “Don’t be afraid. See, he is nice. You can touch him gently, here, on his back. His name is Bo.” Most of the kids actually did touch him, and everything went fine until one boy, for some unknown reasons, tapped Bo on the head. I froze. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卷的相应位置作答。 My worst nightmare came true! _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I closed the carrier and signaled the kids to come inside. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 My worst nightmare came true! He suddenly rushed forward. The next moment, he crawled around the wrist of a terrified little girl. She screamed, and all the other children scattered, horrified. My heart stopped. I knew I had to act fast. Gently, but firmly, I reached out and started to unwrap the snake from the girl’s arm. “It’s OK, it’s OK,” I murmured, trying to comfort both her and Bo. Mr. Lindsey rushed over and took the other end of the snake, guiding it back into its carrier. The little girl, still shaking, was led away by her teacher. The other children stood watching, wide-eyed. I closed the carrier and signaled the kids to come inside. I knew they were scared, but I also knew that this was a teachable moment. I gathered them around me and explained that Bo had just defendd himself. I stressed the importance of respecting animals and their space. Then, slowly, one by one, the children came forward to look at the carrier. They were still cautious, but their curiosity had won over their fear. I smiled and nodded at Mr. Lindsey, who gave me a thumbs-up. That day, I not only tamed a snake, but I also taught a valuable lesson about understanding and empathy. I knew then that my experience with Bo would be one I would cherish forever. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，以人物和蟒蛇为线索。作者为了增加学分，在一个动物园里当讲解员。一开始她很害怕蟒蛇，但在Lindsey先生的教导下，她和蟒蛇建立了信任，她还把这条蟒蛇起名叫Bo。一次在教室里给孩子们展示Bo的时候，一个男孩敲了Bo的头，这让它受惊爬到了一个女孩手腕上，孩子们非常害怕。作者迅速行动，和Lindsey一起把Bo关到了运输车里，然后作者向孩子解释了Bo是出于自卫才这么做的，教育孩子们要尊重动物和它们的空间。这次经历让作者非常难忘。 【详解】1. 续写线索： ①由续写第一段首句“我最可怕的噩梦成真了！”可知，第一段可以描写小男孩敲Bo的头后引发了失控场面，作者和Lindsey一起把Bo关到了运输车里。 ②由续写第二段首句“我关上运输车，示意孩子们进来。”可知，第二段可以描写作者通过这件事教育孩子们关于动物的知识，告诉他们要尊重动物和它们的空间，这次经历让作者非常难忘。 2. 段落续写：噩梦成真——蟒蛇吓到其他孩子——作者和Lindsey一起把Bo关到了运输车里——给孩子们解释并教育孩子们——有了难忘的经历 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①冲：rush/lunge/dash ②散开：scatter/disperse ③保护：defend/protect ④强调：stress/emphasize 情绪类 ①恐惧的：terrified/scared ②小心的：cautious/careful 【点睛】【高分句型1】Mr. Lindsey rushed over and took the other end of the snake, guiding it back into its carrier.(使用了现在分词作状语) 【高分句型2】I knew then that my experience with Bo would be one I would cherish forever.
