Technology is everywhere these days. Automation has pioneered innovation. Your phone is probably in your pocket or your hands at all times, and now it’s easier than ever to communicate with anyone in the world. What are your thoughts on technology, social media or your phone? Do you feel excitement every time you get a notification message, or do you feel tied down by these digital “chains”? However you feel, we want you to put that into artwork-paintings, digital art or photography. One winner and several honorable mentions will be featured in the December 2024 magazine, and the winner will receive a $25 gift card! You may even see your art work in future issues of Teen Ink magazine. Deadline: Nov. 1, 2024 Details and requirements: Entrants must have a Teen Ink account and be aged 13～19. Inappropriate content will not be accepted Submissions must relate to the topic (technology). Entries must be a piece of artwork created by the entrants themselves.

B The public footpath laid barely 20 meters from where I stood, promising a walk along the river, passing fields and through woodland, well away from any road. Yet there was something in my way — the River Thames. I checked my map to see how to reach the path, but there was no other footpath that would lead me to the island on which it sat. It was only accessible by boat — kid’s dream. Similar to a talent show, some performances are educational but mostly, they just make you laugh. Talent is irrelevant, and audience engagement through call and response is essential. Away from phones and peers back home, social norms fade and space for self-exploration forms. Shy kids come out of their shells, and cool kids let their guard down. They get to open up this door to a part of themselves that they wouldn’t have felt safe to reveal at school or at home. It’s been a decade since my last performance as a camp counselor, and I never thought of skits from a skill-building perspective. But I now realize this rich camp tradition left a great impression on me. Through camp skits, I developed my sense of humor, built confidence in front of a crowd, and learned how to accept others for their quirks (怪癖). Maybe we can make our schools or communities more like summer camps by bringing the silliness of skits into our families and classrooms to reconnect with ourselves and each other. The next time you’re sitting around a campfire with friends and family, give it a try. Embrace the discomfort and invite your loved ones to join in on the improvising (即兴创作). And remember: the more funny noises and childlike humor, the better. 4. What is the main purpose of skit performances at summer camps? A. To entertain and engage the audience. B. To showcase talent and skills. C. To educate the audience. D. To compete with fellow campers. 5. What does the underlined phrase “let their guard down” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Defend. B. Relax. C. Mature. D. Respond. 6. How did the author benefit from camp skits? A. She developed a competitive spirit. B. She understood social norms better. C. She became more tolerant. D. She became more creative. 7. What does the author advise us to do? A. Take up challenges in life. B. Accept our imperfections. C. Participate in more community activities. D. Break out of our comfort zone. C When it comes to architectural accomplishments, humans like to think they stand at the top. That is to underestimate the astonishing achievement s of social insects; for example, white ants raise skyscraping nests. The true master builders of the insect world, however, are the hundreds of species of stingless bees. In a new study, Ms. Di Pietro and her colleagues observed over 400 colonies of the stingless bee species in a large bee house in Brazil in 2022 and 2023. Around 95% of the colonies exhibited honeycombs (a structure made by bees) built up in horizontal layers (水平分层), like tiered wedding cakes, while the rest adopted a spiral (螺旋的) structure. Since the stingless bee shows a strong preference for a horizontal-layer honeycomb structure, it’s surprising that spiral honeycombs occur. The team confirmed that there was no difference in the average cell-building rate between the two styles, and therefore no efficiency advantage. In order to rule out a genetic explanation for the different styles, the researchers transplanted workers from colonies that built in one tradition to colonies that built in the other, having first emptied the host structures of their native adults. The imported workers soon switched to the local style, which was then continued by the colony’s young insects as they eventually matured into workers. Dr. Tom Wenseleers guessed that the bees may switch styles as a way of coping with the build-up of small construction errors made by their fore-runners. Such a process, in which multiple organisms indirectly affect each other’s behavior through the traces they leave in their environment, is known as stigmergy (共识主动性). The researchers later introduced a sign of spirals to the otherwise perfect horizontal-layer honeycombs, and found that it did indeed cause the bees to switch to building spirals. These results suggest that stingless bees can pass on different building traditions across generations and individuals needn’t be instructed by their peers. “The findings are the clearest demonstration of cultural differences naturally appearing in insects. Insect culture would once have been thought impossible,” says behavioral biologist Andrew Whiten, who wasn’t involved in the research. “Less than a century ago, culture was thought to be uniquely human.” 8 How does the author introduce the topic of the text? A. By posing a contrast. B. By reporting an event. C. By supposing a situation. D. By justifying an assumption. 9. What can be inferred about the stingless bees’ honeycomb-building behavior? A. It is a result driven by genetic factors. B. It involves cost and efficiency considerations. C. It is switched constantly between several styles. D. It shows flexibility in the changing environments. 10. What is Paragraph 5 mainly about? A. The impact of fore-runners’ behavior on other stingless bees. B. The underlying logic behind stingless bees’ building styles. C. The advantages of maintaining stigmergy among stingless bees. D. The significance of correcting small errors during construction. 11. What is Andrew Whiten’s attitude towards the findings of the study? A. Doubtful. B. Conservative. C. Favorable. D. Critical. D The American Psychological Association(APA) has issued its first advisory on social media use in adolescence (青春期). What’s most striking in its data based on recommendations is how little we really know about how these apps affect our kids. The relative newness of platforms like Snapchat and Tik Tok means little research is available about their long-term effects on teen and tween brains. Getting better data will require significant funding—and much more openness from tech companies. “What little evidence we do have unsurprisingly suggests that social media trades on motivators that aren’t great for young brains. Many kids’ first exposure to social media occurs at the worst possible time when it comes to brain development,” says Mitch Prinstein, a psychologist and neuroscientist at the University of North Carolina(UNC). “Things like ‘button and artificial intelligence(in general)’ are going to affect young people’s brains in a way that’s very different from adult brains when it comes to the desire to stay online and to say or do almost anything to get followers.” When it comes to social interactions, he compares kids’ brains to a car with a huge gas pedal and weak brakes (刹车). Earlier this year, Prinstein and his UNC colleagues published the results of one of the first studies of how the adolescent brain reacts to social media. The team surveyed a group of middle schoolers to understand their social media habits, and then stuck them in an MRI machine to watch their brains as they reacted to social rewards or punishments. They found that 12-year-olds who habitually checked social media had distinct neural patterns, with more activities over time in parts of the brain associated with motivation, salience(or where attention is focused) and cognitive control. The team didn’t weigh in on whether those differences were good or bad, or whether the relationship was causal or correlational. But their work points to the need for more research. It should also remind parents of the need to be keenly aware of social media’s hidden influence on still-developing brains. 12. What issue regarding social media apps does the APA report highlight? A. Their addictive nature. B. The lack of data on their influence. C. The dishonesty of their developers. D. The ineffectiveness of their incentives. 13. Which word can best describe young brains in relation to social interactions? A. Uncontrolled. B. Sensitive. C. Unpredictable. D. Productive. 14. What did Prinstein’s team discover about adolescents who regularly use social media? A. They are usually highly motivated. B. They find it difficult to concentrate. C. They have greater cognitive control. D. Their brains show unique features. 15. What might be the best title for the text? A. Empowering Teens in the Digital Age B. How to Guide Teens’ Social Media Engagement C. The Hidden Influence of Social Media on Young Minds D. The Importance of Healthy Social Media Habits 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。 Making the decision to invest in healthy lifestyle changes is more than just flipping a switch. ____16____.

She was not comfortable in her own skin and feared people would label her “ugly” after seeing the burn scar on her face. It hurt her every time she had to recall that tragedy where her face was badly burned in a big fire. She enjoyed being alone, lost in books and melodies on her guitar. Shortly after Lisa’s 15th birthday, Chris, Lisa’s father, was stricken by a severe illness and lost his ability to walk. However, Chris managed to provide for the family. He sent his daughters to school and did everything possible to improve their lives. But their difficulties never ceased, mainly after he had to spend much on his mother’s heart treatment. It appeared as though fate had only terrible plans for this family. Lisa knew everything, and she couldn’t bear to watch her daddy struggling so much. She wanted to help relieve her family’s burden. “What can I do to improve our lives?” Lisa lost in deep thought. One day, a leaflet promoting a local music contest landed on Lisa’s foot.

Now, she needed to compose an original song, sing it and accompany it with her guitar. Lisa locked herself in her room in her spare time, preparing for the contest.

It’s been a decade since my last performance as a camp counselor, and I never thought of skits from a skill-building perspective. But I now realize this rich camp tradition left a great impression on me. Through camp skits, I developed my sense of humor, built confidence in front of a crowd, and learned how to accept others for their quirks (怪癖). Maybe we can make our schools or communities more like summer camps by bringing the silliness of skits into our families and classrooms to reconnect with ourselves and each other. The next time you’re sitting around a campfire with friends and family, give it a try. Embrace the discomfort and invite your loved ones to join in on the improvising (即兴创作). And remember: the more funny noises and childlike humor, the better. 4. What is the main purpose of skit performances at summer camps? A. To entertain and engage the audience. B. To showcase talent and skills. C. To educate the audience. D. To compete with fellow campers. 5. What does the underlined phrase “let their guard down” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Defend. B. Relax. C. Mature. D. Respond. 6. How did the author benefit from camp skits? A. She developed a competitive spirit. B. She understood social norms better. C. She became more tolerant. D. She became more creative. 7. What does the author advise us to do? A. Take up challenges in life. B. Accept our imperfections. C. Participate in more community activities. D. Break out of our comfort zone. 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章中作者通过讲述自己参与滑稽短剧表演的经历与感悟，告诉我们应该走出舒适圈，重新联系我们自己和彼此。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Similar to a talent show, some performances are educational but mostly, they just make you laugh. Talent is irrelevant, and audience engagement through call and response is essential.(与才艺表演类似，有些表演是有教育意义的，但大多数情况下，它们只是让你发笑。人才是无关紧要的，通过电话和回应的观众参与是至关重要的)”可知，滑稽短剧表演的主要目的是给观众提供娱乐并吸引观众。故选A。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Away from phones and peers back home, social norms fade and space for self-exploration forms. Shy kids come out of their shells(远离手机和同龄人，社会规范逐渐消失，自我探索的空间逐渐形成。害羞的孩子会走出他们的壳)”可知，划线短语部分应是对冷酷的孩子的影响；结合下文“They get to open up this door to a part of themselves that they wouldn’t have felt safe to reveal at school or at home.(他们可以打开这扇门，让自己看到在学校或家里他们觉得不安全的那一部分。)”可知，滑稽短剧表演能让害羞的孩子敞开内心，也能让冷酷的小孩放下戒备；故划线短语“let their guard down”应意为“放松，放下戒备”。故选B。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Through camp skits, I developed my sense of humor, built confidence in front of a crowd, and learned how to accept others for their quirks (怪癖).(通过夏令营的短剧，我培养了幽默感，在众人面前建立了自信，学会了如何接受别人的怪癖)”可知，通过表演滑稽短剧“我”变得更能接受形形色色的人和事，更有包容度了。故选C。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Embrace the discomfort and invite your loved ones to join in on the improvising (即兴创作).(拥抱不适，邀请你爱的人加入即兴创作)”可推知，作者提议我们尝试接受原本不愿接受的事。结合备选选项，选项D“打破舒适圈”符合语境。故选D。 C When it comes to architectural accomplishments, humans like to think they stand at the top. That is to underestimate the astonishing achievement s of social insects; for example, white ants raise skyscraping nests. The true master builders of the insect world, however, are the hundreds of species of stingless bees. In a new study, Ms. Di Pietro and her colleagues observed over 400 colonies of the stingless bee species in a large bee house in Brazil in 2022 and 2023. Around 95% of the colonies exhibited honeycombs (a structure made by bees) built up in horizontal layers (水平分层), like tiered wedding cakes, while the rest adopted a spiral (螺旋的) structure. Since the stingless bee shows a strong preference for a horizontal-layer honeycomb structure, it’s surprising that spiral honeycombs occur. The team confirmed that there was no difference in the average cell-building rate between the two styles, and therefore no efficiency advantage. In order to rule out a genetic explanation for the different styles, the researchers transplanted workers from colonies that built in one tradition to colonies that built in the other, having first emptied the host structures of their native adults. The imported workers soon switched to the local style, which was then continued by the colony’s young insects as they eventually matured into workers. Dr. Tom Wenseleers guessed that the bees may switch styles as a way of coping with the build-up of small construction errors made by their fore-runners. Such a process, in which multiple organisms indirectly affect each other’s behavior through the traces they leave in their environment, is known as stigmergy (共识主动性). The researchers later introduced a sign of spirals to the otherwise perfect horizontal-layer honeycombs, and found that it did indeed cause the bees to switch to building spirals. These results suggest that stingless bees can pass on different building traditions across generations and individuals needn’t be instructed by their peers. “The findings are the clearest demonstration of cultural differences naturally appearing in insects. Insect culture would once have been thought impossible,” says behavioral biologist Andrew Whiten, who wasn’t involved in the research. “Less than a century ago, culture was thought to be uniquely human.” 8. How does the author introduce the topic of the text? A. By posing a contrast. B. By reporting an event. C. By supposing a situation. D. By justifying an assumption. 9. What can be inferred about the stingless bees’ honeycomb-building behavior? A. It is a result driven by genetic factors. B. It involves cost and efficiency considerations. C. It is switched constantly between several styles. D. It shows flexibility in the changing environments. 10 What is Paragraph 5 mainly about? A. The impact of fore-runners’ behavior on other stingless bees. B. The underlying logic behind stingless bees’ building styles. C. The advantages of maintaining stigmergy among stingless bees. D. The significance of correcting small errors during construction. 11. What is Andrew Whiten’s attitude towards the findings of the study? A Doubtful. B. Conservative. C. Favorable. D. Critical. 【答案】8. A 9. D 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了无刺蜜蜂筑巢的建筑成就。研究人员发现，无刺蜜蜂能通过不止一代来传承自己筑巢的方式，这是其他已知昆虫所不具备的。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“When it comes to architectural accomplishments, humans like to think they stand at the top. That is to underestimate the astonishing achievement s of social insects; for example, white ants raise skyscraping nests. The true master builders of the insect world, however, are the hundreds of species of stingless bees.(当谈到建筑成就时，人类喜欢认为自己站在顶峰。这是低估了群居昆虫的惊人成就；例如，白蚁筑起了高耸的巢穴。然而，昆虫世界真正的建造大师是数百种无刺蜜蜂。)”可知，作者是通过人类建筑与昆虫建筑进行对比的方式引入文章的主题的。故选A项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“The imported workers soon switched to the local style, which was then continued by the colony’s young insects as they eventually matured into workers.(外来的工蜂很快就变成了当地的风格，然后由殖民地的年轻昆虫继续这种风格，直到它们最终成熟为工蜂。)”可知，关于无刺蜜蜂建造蜂巢的行为，我们可以推断出它显示了在不断变化的环境中的灵活性。故选D项。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第五段“Such a process, in which multiple organisms indirectly affect each other’s behavior through the traces they leave in their environment, is known as stigmergy（共识主动性）. The researchers later introduced a sign of spirals to the otherwise perfect horizontal-layer honeycombs, and found that it did indeed cause the bees to switch to building spirals.(在这样一个过程中，多种生物通过在环境中留下的痕迹间接地影响彼此的行为，这被称为共识主动性。研究人员后来在原本完美的水平层蜂巢中引入了螺旋形的标志，并发现它确实导致蜜蜂转向建造螺旋形。)”可知，文章第五段的主要内容就是无刺蜜蜂的建筑风格背后的潜在逻辑。故选B项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段作者引用行为生物学家安德鲁·怀特的话“The findings are the clearest demonstration of cultural differences naturally appearing in insects. Insect culture would once have been thought impossible,(这一发现是自然出现在昆虫身上的文化差异最清晰的证明。昆虫文化一度被认为是不可能的，)”可知，作者对这项研究的态度是赞成的。故选C项。 D The American Psychological Association(APA) has issued its first advisory on social media use in adolescence (青春期). What’s most striking in its data based on recommendations is how little we really know about how these apps affect our kids. The relative newness of platforms like Snapchat and Tik Tok means little research is available about their long-term effects on teen and tween brains. Getting better data will require significant funding—and much more openness from tech companies. “What little evidence we do have unsurprisingly suggests that social media trades on motivators that aren’t great for young brains. Many kids’ first exposure to social media occurs at the worst possible time when it comes to brain development,” says Mitch Prinstein, a psychologist and neuroscientist at the University of North Carolina(UNC). “Things like ‘button and artificial intelligence(in general)’ are going to affect young people’s brains in a way that’s very different from adult brains when it comes to the desire to stay online and to say or do almost anything to get followers.” When it comes to social interactions, he compares kids’ brains to a car with a huge gas pedal and weak brakes (刹车). Earlier this year, Prinstein and his UNC colleagues published the results of one of the first studies of how the adolescent brain reacts to social media. The team surveyed a group of middle schoolers to understand their social media habits, and then stuck them in an MRI machine to watch their brains as they reacted to social rewards or punishments. They found that 12-year-olds who habitually checked social media had distinct neural patterns, with more activities over time in parts of the brain associated with motivation, salience(or where attention is focused) and cognitive control. The team didn’t weigh in on whether those differences were good or bad, or whether the relationship was causal or correlational. But their work points to the need for more research. It should also remind parents of the need to be keenly aware of social media’s hidden influence on still-developing brains. 12. What issue regarding social media apps does the APA report highlight? A. Their addictive nature. B. The lack of data on their influence. C. The dishonesty of their developers. D. The ineffectiveness of their incentives. 13. Which word can best describe young brains in relation to social interactions? A. Uncontrolled. B. Sensitive. C. Unpredictable. D. Productive. 14. What did Prinstein’s team discover about adolescents who regularly use social media? A. They are usually highly motivated. B. They find it difficult to concentrate. C. They have greater cognitive control. D. Their brains show unique features. 15. What might be the best title for the text? A. Empowering Teens in the Digital Age B. How to Guide Teens’ Social Media Engagement C. The Hidden Influence of Social Media on Young Minds D. The Importance of Healthy Social Media Habits 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章重点讨论了社交媒体对青少年大脑的潜在影响。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“What’s most striking in its data based on recommendations is how little we really know about how these apps affect our kids.(其基于推荐的数据中最引人注目的是，我们对这些应用程序如何影响我们的孩子知之甚少)”和第二段“The relative newness of platforms like Snapchat and Tik Tok means little research is available about their long-term effects on teen and tween brains. Getting better data will require significant funding—and much more openness from tech companies. (Snapchat和抖音等平台相对较新，这意味着关于它们对青少年大脑的长期影响的研究很少。获得更好的数据将需要大量的资金——以及科技公司更加开放的态度)”可知，APA报告中强调了我们对这些应用对青少年的影响了解甚少，即缺乏关于其影响的数据。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“When it comes to social interactions, he compares kids’ brains to a car with a huge gas pedal and weak brakes (刹车).(当谈到社会互动时，他把孩子的大脑比作一辆油门踏板很大、刹车却很弱的汽车)”可知，青少年的大脑在进行社交活动时就好像汽车有一个猛油门和弱刹车，即很容易失控。故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“They found that 12-year-olds who habitually checked social media had distinct neural patterns, with more activities over time in parts of the brain associated with motivation, salience(or where attention is focused) and cognitive control.(他们发现，习惯查看社交媒体的12岁儿童具有独特的神经模式，随着时间的推移，大脑中与动机、突出性（或注意力集中的地方）和认知控制相关的部分活动更多)”可知， Prin stein的团队发现他们大脑的结构呈现出独特的模式。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段““What little evidence we do have unsurprisingly suggests that social media trades on motivators that aren’t great for young brains. Many kids’ first exposure to social media occurs at the worst possible time when it comes to brain development,” says Mitch Prinstein, a psychologist and neuroscientist at the University of North Carolina(UNC).(“毫无疑问，我们所掌握的少量证据表明，社交媒体利用的激励因素对年轻人的大脑并不好。北卡罗来纳大学的心理学家和神经科学家米奇·普林斯坦说：“许多孩子第一次接触社交媒体，可能是在大脑发育最糟糕的时候。”)”结合文章重点讨论了社交媒体对青少年大脑的潜在影响。C选项“社交媒体对年轻人思想的潜在影响”符合文章标题。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。 Making the decision to invest in healthy lifestyle changes is more than just flipping a switch. ____16____.

She was not comfortable in her own skin and feared people would label her “ugly” after seeing the burn scar on her face. It hurt her every time she had to recall that tragedy where her face was badly burned in a big fire. She enjoyed being alone, lost in books and melodies on her guitar. Shortly after Lisa’s 15th birthday, Chris, Lisa’s father, was stricken by a severe illness and lost his ability to walk. However, Chris managed to provide for the family. He sent his daughters to school and did everything possible to improve their lives. But their difficulties never ceased, mainly after he had to spend much on his mother’s heart treatment. It appeared as though fate had only terrible plans for this family. Lisa knew everything, and she couldn’t bear to watch her daddy struggling so much. She wanted to help relieve her family’s burden. “What can I do to improve our lives?” Lisa lost in deep thought. One day, a leaflet promoting a local music contest landed on Lisa’s foot. Lisa’s eyes sparkled with hope when she read it and saw that the cash prize was $25,000. Lisa secretly registered for the music contest. Over the years, she had been passionate about music, skilled at playing the guitar and mastering numerous musical pieces. Now, she needed to compose an original song, sing it and accompany it with her guitar. Lisa locked herself in her room in her spare time, preparing for the contest. In her original composition, she illustrated the joyful moments spent with her family, and she emphasized her heart felt gratitude for her father’s contribution to the entire household. Her lyrics over-flowed with genuine emotion. She tirelessly worked on the song, determined to perfect her performance. With the date for the contest approaching, Lisa spent more time on her preparations. She seemed no longer afraid to look at herself in the mirror. She often stood in front of the mirror, practiced her song and imagined her performance on the stage. Hopefully, she thought she would give her father a big surprise. 注意：1. 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。 The big day arrived, and Lisa was nervous. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Despite not winning the contest, Lisa’s performance impressed many audiences, including a musician. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文 The big day arrived, and Lisa was nervous. She gathered all her courage and walked onto the stage. Her heart beat fast as she sensed the audiences’ eyes on her, their sympathetic glances directed at her scar. “Just let it go,” she told herself and tried to keep calm. Fingering her guitar, she poured her emotions into singing her original composition. However, she did not make it to the final round. Lisa was terribly upset and returned home heart-broken. Despite not winning the contest, Lisa’s performance impressed many audiences, including a musician. Three days after the contest, the musician, accompanied by the host of the contest, came to Lisa’s home. The musician offered Lisa the chance to join a band and receive professional music training because Lisa had music al talent. Thrilled by the unexpected opportunity, Lisa’s spirits lifted as she realized that her journey was far from over. With renewed determination, she started this new chapter, eager to see where it would take her. And she realized that talent, not beauty, was what mattered most. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了16岁的丽莎因为大火脸上留下了疤痕，十分自卑，家庭也陷入了一系列悲剧中。丽莎想要通过参加比赛，改善家里的情况，尽管没有赢得比赛，丽莎的表演给一位音乐家留下了深刻印象，并最终给了丽莎加入乐队并接受专业音乐训练的机会。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“大日子到了，丽莎很紧张”可知，第一段可描写丽莎比赛的经过。 ②由第二段首句内容“尽管没有赢得比赛，丽莎的表演给许多观众留下了深刻的印象，其中包括一位音乐家”可知，第二段可描写丽莎得到音乐家的帮助进入乐队，开始了新的篇章。 2.续写线索：参加比赛——感到紧张——完成表演——未能进入决赛——被音乐家注意——进入阅读——开启新的篇章——丽莎感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①回家：return home/go back home ②重要：matter /count ③提供：offer/provide 情绪类 ①沮丧：upset/frustrated ②同情：sympathetic/merciful 【点睛】[高分句型1] Her heart beat fast as she sensed the audiences’ eyes on her, their sympathetic glances directed at her scar.
