B Life is full of ups and downs, and you must understand that you will sometimes fail at things and it is okay when that happens. Almost all of our life we have been taught that failure is really bad, and when we fail we must drown (沉浸) ourselves in sorrow, this is an entirely wrong approach. From a kid to an adult, you will fail at many things in life but that will only tell you about yourself. You will get to learn about your true capabilities, the things you are good at, and the things that you are bad at. We must learn to accept the process rather than run from it. Only then will we be able to achieve our goals in life. Let me tell you something about myself, and how I faced failures in life. In my early years at school, I had trouble with some subjects. I used to get really bad grades. Sometimes I would get an F and that would make me really scared. I used to think: “What will I show my parents?” So what I used to do was cover those grades up. I would turn the F into a B just to please my parents. Well the short version of it is that it didn’t work out and eventually, I was caught doing that. I learned a lot after that. I knew that I had to accept that failure and learn from it, and something good actually came from it. I started doing better with my grades. That F turned into a B naturally, and that B turned into an A. Whenever you face a failure, never think that you are never going to recover from this. You must think of ways to better yourself. Did you know that it took Thomas Edison 10,000 attempts to perfect the light bulb? Bill Gates failed many times, even his first company was a complete failure. All of this is proof that we must learn from our failures, not run from them! 4. What agrees with the author’s attitude to failure? A. It should be a painful process for us. B. It is a way to tell us about our abilities. C. It’s better to find ways to escape from it. D. Smart people can find ways to avoid it. 5. Why does the author mention his childhood? A. To tell us we can cover our mistakes sometimes. B. To tell us almost everyone will make mistakes. C. To show the right attitudes to failure is crucial. D. To explain everyone will succeed with devotion. 6. What can we get from the last paragraph? A. Slow but sure wins the race. B. Good beginning is half done. C. Failure is the mother of success. D. Where there is a will there is a way. 7. Which can best describe the author’s characteristics? A. Clever. B. Careful. C. Caring. D. Optimistic. C In ancient Greece, festivals were an essential part of their culture. These festivals were celebrated in honor of various gods and goddesses and were a way for people to come together and celebrate their beliefs. One of the most important festivals in ancient Greece was the Eleusinian Mysteries. This festival was held in honor of Demeter, the goddess of agriculture and fertility (丰产). The Eleusinian Mysteries were a series of rituals (仪式) that celebrated the cycle of life and death. Participants would go through a process that involved fasting (斋戒), purification, and secret rituals. The Dionysia was another significant festival in ancient Greece. This festival was intended for Dionysus, the god of wine, fertility, and theater. The Dionysia consisted of several days of dinning, drinking wine, and watching plays performed by playwrights such as Sophocles and Euripides. Festivals were not just about honoring gods; they also served as a way for people to come together as a community. During festivals, people would gather in public spaces to socialize, watch performances or sporting events, or participate in religious ceremonies. In addition to these major festivals, there were many other smaller festivals throughout ancient Greece that celebrated local traditions or honored specific gods or goddesses. These festivals varied from region to region but all shared the common purpose of bringing people together to celebrate their beliefs. In conclusion, festivals played an important role in ancient Greek culture as they provided opportunities for people to come together and celebrate their shared culture. These festivals were not just about honoring the gods; they were also a way for people to socialize and participate in community events. The use of festivals as a means of cultural expression is still popular in modern times, and serves as a proof to the enduring treasure of ancient Greece. 8. What’s the function of festivals in Greece? A. Chances for people to know other cultures. B. Honor to people’s glorious process of life. C. Rewards for people’s devotion to the society. D. Religious themes and occasions for gatherings. 9. Why were the Eleusinian Mysteries and the Dionysia held? A. To hold a music party. B. To have a big dinner party. C. To honor the rich gift from nature. D. To put on plays written by famous people. 10. Whether big festivals or small ones, they serve as an occasion for ______. A. social contacts B. people’s show of talents. C. volunteer activities D. choices of the good tradition 11. What’s a suitable title for the text? A. The Major Festivals in Greece. B. Reasons Behind Festivals in Greece. C. Activities in Greek Festivals. D. Changes about Festivals in Greece. D The classical gardens of Suzhou, Jiangsu Province, China date back to the 6th century BCE when the city was founded as the capital of the Wu Kingdom. Inspired by these royal hunting gardens built by the King of the Slate of Wu, private gardens began emerging around the 4th century and finally reached the top in the 18th century. Today , more than 50 of these gardens are still in existence, nine of which are regarded as the finest models of Chinese “Mountain and Water” gardens. The earliest of these, the Canglang Pavilion was built in the early 11th century on the site of an earlier, destroyed garden. Designed and built under the influence of the unconstrained (不受约束的) poetic freehand style originally seen in traditional Chinese landscape paintings, they are noted for their excellent connection of skillful techniques, artistic elegance and rich cultural implications. These gardens lend insight into how ancient Chinese constructors harmonized conceptions of aestheticism (唯美主义) in a culture of reclusion (隐居) within an urban living environment. Garden masters from each dynasty adapted various techniques to artfully model nature by skillfully adapting and using only the physical space available to them. Limited to the space within a single residence, classical Suzhou gardens are intended to be a microcosm of the natural world, incorporating basic elements such as water, stones, plants, and various types of buildings of literary and poetic significance. These excellent gardens are a proof to the superior craftsmanship of the garden masters of the time. These unique designs that have been inspired but are not limited by concepts of nature have had great influence on the development of both Eastern and Western garden art. These garden groups of buildings, rock formations, calligraphy, furniture, and decorative artistic pieces serve us showcases of the artistic achievements of the East Yangtze Delta region; they are basically the personification of the traditional Chinese culture. 12. What aspect about the classical gardens of Suzhou does paragraph 1 tell? A. Its history. B. Its styles. C. Its size. D. Its owners. 13. The classical gardens of Suzhou were built ______. A. in the limited space B. with the direction of poets C. near the mountain and water D. with natural and cultural factors 14. What does the underlined word “microcosm” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Decoration. B. Reflection. C. Limitation. D. Improvement. 15. What is the author’s opinion about the gardens of Suzhou? A. Beautiful but unavailable. B. Decorative but impractical. C. Skillful and influential. D. Laborious and space-occupying. 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 If you’re looking for meaningful yet easy ways to volunteer from home, then you’ll love this list of opportunities for remote volunteers. ____16____, there are also ways to make a difference without leaving home.

It was the day I told her that her thirty-six-year-old daughter had stage Ⅲ breast cancer. I will never forget the look of despair in her tear-filled eyes as I told her. Seeing my mother sob uncontrollably broke my heart. It was one of the few times in my life that I saw my mother weak and vulnerable (脆弱的). Since I had been diagnosed with advanced breast cancer, the doctors had a heavy-duty plan of attack to beat it, which would mean a double mastectomy, five months of chemotherapy, ovary obliteration, and five weeks of radiation. It also meant that a fiercely independent single girl who lived alone was in serious need of some help taking care of herself. Thankfully. I was blessed with my own personal army of family, friends, and co-workers who had offered to help me out with whatever I might need, including meals and rides to doctors’ appointments. But.as grateful as I was, there really was only one person who I wanted by my side - my mom. My mother lived more than 300 miles away, but didn’t even give it a second thought. She was going to be my primary caregiver, chauffeur, personal chef, nursemaid, communications liaison, counselor, and shoulder to cry on. No one else in the world could fill her shoes. It was a job that only she could do. The night after my first chemotherapy treatment is forever imprinted in my memory. I was never so sick in my entire life. I couldn’t even keep down a glass of water. And after-hours spent in the bathroom, I weakly lifted myself into bed, weeping, “Please, take this away from me. Please make me feel better.” At that moment, my mother crawled into bed with me, wrapped her entire body around me, and cried with me. Just like when I was a little girl, her arms enveloping me made it better. 注意：l. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Over the next six months, my mom traveled back and forth between two homes and two lives. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I think about what my mother sacrificed while I was going through such a tough time in my life. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1-5 ABBCA 6-10 BAABC 11-15 CABBC 16-20 CCABC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 高二英语 考生注意: 1.本试卷分四部分，共8页。满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2.答题前，考生务必用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔将密封线内项目填写清楚。 3.考生作答时，请将答案答在答题卡上。选择题每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑；非选择题请用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔在答题卡上各题的答题区域内作答，超出答题区域书写的答案无效，在试题卷、草稿纸上作答无效。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 回答听力部分时，请先将答案标在试卷上。听力部分结束前，你将有两分钟的时间将你的答案转涂到客观题答题卡上。 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。 1.

Almost all of our life we have been taught that failure is really bad, and when we fail we must drown (沉浸) ourselves in sorrow, this is an entirely wrong approach. From a kid to an adult, you will fail at many things in life but that will only tell you about yourself. You will get to learn about your true capabilities, the things you are good at, and the things that you are bad at. We must learn to accept the process rather than run from it. Only then will we be able to achieve our goals in life. Let me tell you something about myself, and how I faced failures in life. In my early years at school, I had trouble with some subjects. I used to get really bad grades. Sometimes I would get an F and that would make me really scared. I used to think: “What will I show my parents?” So what I used to do was cover those grades up. I would turn the F into a B just to please my parents. Well the short version of it is that it didn’t work out and eventually, I was caught doing that. I learned a lot after that. I knew that I had to accept that failure and learn from it, and something good actually came from it. I started doing better with my grades. That F turned into a B naturally, and that B turned into an A. Whenever you face a failure, never think that you are never going to recover from this. You must think of ways to better yourself. Did you know that it took Thomas Edison 10,000 attempts to perfect the light bulb? Bill Gates failed many times, even his first company was a complete failure. All of this is proof that we must learn from our failures, not run from them! 4. What agrees with the author’s attitude to failure? A. It should be a painful process for us. B. It is a way to tell us about our abilities. C. It’s better to find ways to escape from it. D. Smart people can find ways to avoid it. 5. Why does the author mention his childhood? A. To tell us we can cover our mistakes sometimes. B. To tell us almost everyone will make mistakes. C. To show the right attitudes to failure is crucial. D. To explain everyone will succeed with devotion. 6. What can we get from the last paragraph? A. Slow but sure wins the race. B. Good beginning is half done. C. Failure is the mother of success. D. Where there is a will there is a way. 7. Which can best describe the author’s characteristics? A. Clever. B. Careful. C. Caring. D. Optimistic. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是夹叙夹议文。作者通过自己的事例告诉我们，失败是我们生活中的一部分，我们要积极面对，做出改善，而不是去逃避。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“From a kid to an adult, you will fail at many things in life but that will only tell you about yourself. You will get to learn about your true capabilities, the things you are good at, and the things that you are bad at. We must learn to accept the process rather than run from it. Only then will we be able to achieve our goals in life.(从一个孩子到一个成年人，你会在生活中的许多事情上失败，但这只会告诉你自己。你会了解到你真正的能力，你擅长什么，不擅长什么。我们必须学会接受这个过程，而不是逃避它。只有这样，我们才能实现我们的人生目标)”可知，作者认为失败是一种告诉我们能力的方式。故选B项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Let me tell you something about myself, and how I faced failures in life. In my early years at school, I had trouble with some subjects. I used to get really bad grades. Sometimes I would get an F and that would make me really scared. I used to think: “What will I show my parents?” So what I used to do was cover those grades up. I would turn the F into a B just to please my parents. Well the short version of it is that it didn’t work out and eventually, I was caught doing that. I learned a lot after that. I knew that I had to accept that failure and learn from it, and something good actually came from it. I started doing better with my grades. That F turned into a B naturally, and that B turned into an A.(让我告诉你一些关于我自己的事情，以及我是如何面对生活中的失败的。在我上学的早期，我在一些科目上有困难。我以前的成绩很差。有时候我会得个F，这让我很害怕。我过去常常想:“我要给父母看什么?”所以我过去做的就是掩盖这些成绩。为了让父母高兴，我会把F写成B。简而言之，我没有成功，最终我被抓了个正着。在那之后我学到了很多。我知道我必须接受失败并从中吸取教训，这样才会有好的结果。我的成绩开始有所提高。F自然变成了B, B自然变成了A)”可知，作者提到他的童年经历，作者成绩不好，先是修改成绩，但是失败了，之后他认识到，需要从失败中吸取经验让自己成绩提高，他成功了，所以是为了说明对失败采取正确的态度是至关重要的。故选C项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Whenever you face a failure, never think that you are never going to recover from this. You must think of ways to better yourself. Did you know that it took Thomas Edison 10,000 attempts to perfect the light bulb? Bill Gates failed many times, even his first company was a complete failure. All of this is proof that we must learn from our failures, not run from them!(当你面对失败时，永远不要认为你永远不会从中恢复过来。你必须想办法提高自己。你知道托马斯·爱迪生花了一万次尝试才发明出完美的灯泡吗?比尔·盖茨失败过很多次，甚至他的第一家公司也完全失败了。所有这些都证明我们必须从失败中学习，而不是逃避!)”可知，从本段我们学到我们必须从失败中学习，而不是逃避，也就是失败是成功之母。故选C项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Whenever you face a failure, never think that you are never going to recover from this. You must think of ways to better yourself. Did you know that it took Thomas Edison 10,000 attempts to perfect the light bulb? Bill Gates failed many times, even his first company was a complete failure. All of this is proof that we must learn from our failures, not run from them!(当你面对失败时，永远不要认为你永远不会从中恢复过来。你必须想办法提高自己。你知道托马斯·爱迪生花了一万次尝试才发明出完美的灯泡吗?比尔·盖茨失败过很多次，甚至他的第一家公司也完全失败了。所有这些都证明我们必须从失败中学习，而不是逃避!)”以及从全文作者对待失败的态度可以推断，作者是一个乐观的人。故选D项。 C In ancient Greece, festivals were an essential part of their culture. These festivals were celebrated in honor of various gods and goddesses and were a way for people to come together and celebrate their beliefs. One of the most important festivals in ancient Greece was the Eleusinian Mysteries. This festival was held in honor of Demeter, the goddess of agriculture and fertility (丰产). The Eleusinian Mysteries were a series of rituals (仪式) that celebrated the cycle of life and death. Participants would go through a process that involved fasting (斋戒), purification, and secret rituals. The Dionysia was another significant festival in ancient Greece. This festival was intended for Dionysus, the god of wine, fertility, and theater. The Dionysia consisted of several days of dinning, drinking wine, and watching plays performed by playwrights such as Sophocles and Euripides. Festivals were not just about honoring gods; they also served as a way for people to come together as a community. During festivals, people would gather in public spaces to socialize, watch performances or sporting events, or participate in religious ceremonies. In addition to these major festivals, there were many other smaller festivals throughout ancient Greece that celebrated local traditions or honored specific gods or goddesses. These festivals varied from region to region but all shared the common purpose of bringing people together to celebrate their beliefs. In conclusion, festivals played an important role in ancient Greek culture as they provided opportunities for people to come together and celebrate their shared culture. These festivals were not just about honoring the gods; they were also a way for people to socialize and participate in community events. The use of festivals as a means of cultural expression is still popular in modern times, and serves as a proof to the enduring treasure of ancient Greece. 8. What’s the function of festivals in Greece? A. Chances for people to know other cultures. B. Honor to people’s glorious process of life. C. Rewards for people’s devotion to the society. D. Religious themes and occasions for gatherings. 9. Why were the Eleusinian Mysteries and the Dionysia held? A. To hold a music party. B. To have a big dinner party. C. To honor the rich gift from nature. D. To put on plays written by famous people. 10. Whether big festivals or small ones, they serve as an occasion for ______. A. social contacts B. people’s show of talents. C. volunteer activities D. choices of the good tradition 11. What’s a suitable title for the text? A. The Major Festivals in Greece. B.

Inspired by these royal hunting gardens built by the King of the Slate of Wu, private gardens began emerging around the 4th century and finally reached the top in the 18th century. Today , more than 50 of these gardens are still in existence, nine of which are regarded as the finest models of Chinese “Mountain and Water” gardens. The earliest of these, the Canglang Pavilion was built in the early 11th century on the site of an earlier, destroyed garden. Designed and built under the influence of the unconstrained (不受约束的) poetic freehand style originally seen in traditional Chinese landscape paintings, they are noted for their excellent connection of skillful techniques, artistic elegance and rich cultural implications. These gardens lend insight into how ancient Chinese constructors harmonized conceptions of aestheticism (唯美主义) in a culture of reclusion (隐居) within an urban living environment. Garden masters from each dynasty adapted various techniques to artfully model nature by skillfully adapting and using only the physical space available to them. Limited to the space within a single residence, classical Suzhou gardens are intended to be a microcosm of the natural world, incorporating basic elements such as water, stones, plants, and various types of buildings of literary and poetic significance. These excellent gardens are a proof to the superior craftsmanship of the garden masters of the time. These unique designs that have been inspired but are not limited by concepts of nature have had great influence on the development of both Eastern and Western garden art. These garden groups of buildings, rock formations, calligraphy, furniture, and decorative artistic pieces serve us showcases of the artistic achievements of the East Yangtze Delta region; they are basically the personification of the traditional Chinese culture. 12. What aspect about the classical gardens of Suzhou does paragraph 1 tell? A. Its history. B. Its styles. C. Its size. D. Its owners. 13. The classical gardens of Suzhou were built ______. A. in the limited space B. with the direction of poets C. near the mountain and water D. with natural and cultural factors 14. What does the underlined word “microcosm” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Decoration. B. Reflection. C. Limitation. D. Improvement. 15. What is the author’s opinion about the gardens of Suzhou? A. Beautiful but unavailable. B. Decorative but impractical. C. Skillful and influential. D. Laborious and space-occupying. 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。全文介绍了苏州园林的艺术成就。 【12题详解】 主旨大意题。文章第一段讲到“date back to the 6th century BCE when the city was founded as the capital of the Wu Kingdom. Inspired by these royal hunting gardens built by the King of the Slate of Wu, private gardens began emerging around the 4th century and finally reached the top in the 18th century.(可以追溯到公元前6世纪，当时这座城市是吴国的首都。受吴王建造的皇家狩猎花园的启发，私人花园在4世纪左右开始出现，最终在18世纪达到顶峰。)”可知，第一段主要介绍苏州园林的历史。故选A。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。文章第二段讲到“Designed and built under the influence of the unconstrained (不受约束的) poetic freehand style originally seen in traditional Chinese landscape paintings, they are noted for their excellent connection of skillful techniques, artistic elegance and rich cultural implications. (它们的设计和建造受到了中国传统山水画中天马行空的诗意写意风格的影响，以其娴熟的技法、优雅的艺术风格和丰富的文化内涵而闻名)”可知，苏州园林有着自然与文化元素。故选D。 【14题详解】 词义猜测题。文章第三段划线单词上文“Limited to the space within a single residence(受限于单个住宅内的空间)”后文讲到“of the natural world, incorporating basic elements such as water, stones, plants, and various types of buildings of literary and poetic significance. (自然世界的_____，融合了水、石头、植物等基本元素，以及具有文学和诗歌意义的各种类型的建筑)”可知，苏州园林受空间限制，只能把这些自然世界的基本元素缩小融合在一起，苏州园林是自然与文学、诗意的缩影。因此，第三段中带下划线单词的意思是“映像，反射”。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。文章最后一段讲到“These excellent gardens are a proof to the superior craftsmanship of the garden masters of the time. These unique designs that have been inspired but are not limited by concepts of nature have had great influence on the development of both Eastern and Western garden art. (这些优秀的花园证明了当时花园大师的高超技艺。这些受到自然概念启发但不受自然概念限制的独特设计对东西方园林艺术的发展产生了巨大影响)”可知，作者在最后一段讲述了苏州园林的精湛与对世界建筑风格的影响。因此，作者认为苏州园林有技巧，有影响力。故选C。 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 If you’re looking for meaningful yet easy ways to volunteer from home, then you’ll love this list of opportunities for remote volunteers. ____16____, there are also ways to make a difference without leaving home.

It was the day I told her that her thirty-six-year-old daughter had stage Ⅲ breast cancer. I will never forget the look of despair in her tear-filled eyes as I told her. Seeing my mother sob uncontrollably broke my heart. It was one of the few times in my life that I saw my mother weak and vulnerable (脆弱的). Since I had been diagnosed with advanced breast cancer, the doctors had a heavy-duty plan of attack to beat it, which would mean a double mastectomy, five months of chemotherapy, ovary obliteration, and five weeks of radiation. It also meant that a fiercely independent single girl who lived alone was in serious need of some help taking care of herself. Thankfully. I was blessed with my own personal army of family, friends, and co-workers who had offered to help me out with whatever I might need, including meals and rides to doctors’ appointments. But.as grateful as I was, there really was only one person who I wanted by my side - my mom. My mother lived more than 300 miles away, but didn’t even give it a second thought. She was going to be my primary caregiver, chauffeur, personal chef, nursemaid, communications liaison, counselor, and shoulder to cry on. No one else in the world could fill her shoes. It was a job that only she could do. The night after my first chemotherapy treatment is forever imprinted in my memory. I was never so sick in my entire life. I couldn’t even keep down a glass of water. And after-hours spent in the bathroom, I weakly lifted myself into bed, weeping, “Please, take this away from me. Please make me feel better.” At that moment, my mother crawled into bed with me, wrapped her entire body around me, and cried with me. Just like when I was a little girl, her arms enveloping me made it better. 注意：l. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Over the next six months, my mom traveled back and forth between two homes and two lives. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I think about what my mother sacrificed while I was going through such a tough time in my life. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Over the next six months, my mom traveled back and forth between two homes and two lives. She came just to take care of her thirty-six-year-old little girl. She sat by my side for almost every treatment and made me fried cheese sandwiches in the middle of the night. She ran to the chemist’s when I was in severe pain and the video store when I wanted to be entertained. She accompanied me overnight, sobbing with me, comforting me. When I felt better, she sang the old songs she had countlessly sang when I was small. Basically, she put her life on hold to take care of me, her baby. I think about what my mother sacrificed while I was going through such a tough time in my life. She was attending to my every need, both physically and emotionally, but who was attending to her needs? Who heard her cry in the middle of the night when she sobbed for her daughter? Who cared if she had a meal when she cared for me day and night? I know what my mother would say if I asked her that question. She would say, “That’s just what you do when you are a mother.” And for that, I am greatly grateful. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者患有乳腺癌，这期间母亲不辞辛苦对自己无私地照顾和付出。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“在接下来的六个月里，我妈妈在两个家和两种生活之间来回奔波。”可知，第一段可具体描述母亲所经历的艰难，如奔波两地、日夜照顾等。 ②由第二段首句内容“当我经历人生中如此艰难的时刻时，我想起了母亲所做的牺牲。”可知，第二段可描写作者表达作者对母亲的感恩之情以及对母爱的感悟。 2.续写线索：母亲奔波照顾——母亲的陪伴与付出——母亲的爱感动了作者——体会到母亲的艰难——感悟到母爱的伟大 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①使快乐：be entertained / be delighted ②陪伴：accompany / be with ③暂停她的生活：put her life on hold  /pause her life 情绪类 ①感动：be greatly moved / be deeply touched ②感恩的：grateful / appreciative 【点睛】【高分句型1】She accompanied me overnight, sobbing with me, comforting me.
