In Interlaken, they would head up the mountain and watch the paragliders (滑翔伞运动员) launch themselves into the sky. Back in town, in a large park, they watched them return to the earth."Some day I’d love to do that," Thompson told Kenneth. But there was always so much to do in Interlaken. Besides, Thompson didn’t know if Kenneth would have enjoyed it. "He was not so keen on heights as I was," she said. So she continued to watch the gliders take fight and land. Kenneth died in 2005. Eleven years later, Thompson finally took to the skies herself, in a para glider at the age of 80. Although some people get scared while flying, she said she just feels free. Thompson did her second paraglide when she turned 85, and raised nearly 2,000 for a local charity. Before leaving Interlaken after her second fight, Thompson asked the organizers about the age limit for para gliding. They said: “Any age, as long as you’re fit.” Thompson, now 86, plans her third flight for when she is 90. Thompson grew up living above her parents shop in Belfast. At 18, she helped in the shop while studying for her music diplomas (文凭) in Stranmillis, south Belfast. She started to teach piano to local children, and at the height of her teaching she gave 70 lessons a week. She still has 15 pupils on her books. “Over the years I’ve had so many that I’m teaching their children now.” Is she scared of getting older? “Fear? No. People say: ‘Isn’t getting old awful? I say: No. You are free to do more of the things that you want to do.” “People might worry about falling, it being the end of them. But that doesn’t bother me at all. When it’s your time, it’s your time. No matter where you are.” Thompson added. 4. What inspired Thompson to try para gliding at the age of 80? A. Her long-held curiosity toward it. B Her husband’s encouragement. C. Her love for nature and adventure. D. Her wish to overcome her fear of heights. 5. How did Thompson feel during her first paraglide? A. Nervous. B. Surprised. C. Free. D. Uncomfortable. 6. What does Thompson think of aging? A. It inspires her to reach new heights. B. It is an opportunity for more freedom. C. It doesn’t make any difference to her. D. It limits her ability to do what she wants. 7. How does Thompson view the risks brought by para gliding? A. They prevent her from enjoying paragliding. B. They add to the excitement of paragliding. C. She believes they don’t exist. D. She accepts whatever may happen. C The days of having to remember your ID could soon be a thing of the past. The famous tourist town of Wuzhen, China, is now using facial recognition technology to act as its entry pass through the gates of the attraction. The system uses cameras to notice people as they approach the entry, and checks these against a database of registered visitors within a few seconds. The technology is thought to be up to 99. 77 percent accurate and able to distinguish people better than a human. Wuzhen is a popular tourist town with visitors going there in large numbers to see its stunning river system and museums. Baidu, a web firm often referred to as “Chinese Google”, created the system. When people now check in to their accommodation, they will have their photo taken and uploaded to a central database upon leaving and re-entering the town, the system will re-check that they are still a guest at a hotel, before allowing them back in. The technology is being used to track the 5,000 visitors that stay in the town’s hotels every day. Yuan Qing lin, director of the Institute of deep Learning at Baidu, told The Verge, “With our technology, you don’t need to give your ID. When you are approaching a gate, it will take a photo of you and compare that photo to the database.” Wuzhen used to monitor its visitors using a ticket-entry system, but this could easily be abused. It was discovered that some people were sharing their tickets to avoid paying. Baidu’s system is based on neural networks, which can process huge amounts of data-more than one billion faces. As well as recognizing faces, the system can discover facial movements, so it can’t be fooled by holding a mask. Baidu is also using the software for employee entry at its Beijing headquarters. 8. What can be learned about the facial recognition technology from the passage? A. The technology could soon be a thing of the past. B. The technology can match visitor’s faces with those in the database. C. The technology can be over 99.77% accurate. D. The technology is being used to track where the 5000 visitors are going. 9. Which of the following word can replace the underlined word “stunning” in paragraph 2? A humorous B. awkward C. attractive D. funny 10. Why has Wuzhen quit using ticket-entry system? A. Because the tickets were too expensive. B. Because some people shared their tickets to avoid paying. C. Because the tickets didn’t sell well. D. Because the system can be fooled by someone without a mask. 11. What is the passage mainly about? A. Chinese tourist town Wuzhen is using facial recognition. B. Baidu, a web company, is using the recognition system. C. Facial recognition is widely used in China. D. Wuzhen is a popular tourist town with many visitors going there to see the system. D Wildlife conservation is the practice of protecting plant and animal species and their habitats. As part of the world’s ecosystems, wildlife provides balance and stability to nature’s processes. Wildlife conservation is aimed to ensure the survival of these species and educate people on living sustainably with other species. The number of people has grown to more than eight billion today, and it continues to rapidly grow. The economic growth endangers the habitats and existence of various types of wildlife around the world, particularly animals and plants that may be displaced for land development, or used for food or other human purposes. This threat is at top of the list and means natural resources are being consumed faster than ever by the billions of people on the planet. The introduction of invasive species from other parts of the world is another threat to wildlife. Other threats include climate change, pollution, fishing and hunting. International organizations like the World Wildlife Fund, Conservation International, Wildlife Conservation Society and the United Nations work to support global animal and habitat conservation on many different fronts. They work with the government to establish and protect public lands, like national parks and wildlife protection areas. They help write legislation(法规), such as the Endangered Species Act(ESA)of 1973 in the United States, to protect various species. They work with law enforcement to charge those with wildlife crimes. They also promote biodiversity to support the growing human population while preserving existing species and habitats. National Geographic Explorers, like conservation biologists Camille Coudrat and Titus Adhola, are working to slow the extinction of global species and protect global biodiversity and habitats. Environmental filmmakers and photographers, like Thomas P. Peschak, are essential to conservation efforts as well, documenting and bringing attention to endangered wildlife all over the world. 12. Which is a goal of wildlife conservation according to the text? A. To stop introducing invasive species. B. To encourage harmonious coexistence. C. To control the number of world people. D. To increase the use of natural resources. 13. What is the biggest threat to wildlife? A. Hunting. B. Human activity. C. Pollution. D. Climate change. 14. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The activities of protection areas. B. The importance of biodiversity promotion. C. The relevant efforts of international organizations. D. The great impact of wildlife crimes on ecosystems. 15. What does the author want to present in the last paragraph? A The necessity of legislation. B. The wildlife conservation’s achievements. C. The individuals’ contributions to the environment. D. The statistics about the wildlife conservation efforts. 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Caring for plants is a fantastic skill for kids to have.

My parents traveled for a living, so Aunt Emily took care of me while they were away. One rainy morning, there was an old lady who was dressed in a bright orange coat carrying a rubbish bag and a stick. “What’s that old lady doing?” I asked Emily, pointing out the window to the street in front of the house. Hearing my question, Emily answered, “She’s picking up rubbish around here for fun.” “Oh,” I answered. “Interesting… Why would someone think picking up rubbish was fun?” For a long time, often saw that old lady—rain or shine—on my way to school. In the beginning, I thought she was crazy to pick up rubbish. However, I finally smiled and waved at her each time I saw her. Later, when I moved to college, I’d see rubbish in the grass and feel really angry about it. I’d think, “Why isn’t anyone picking up rubbish? People are so unconcerned!” But shortly after that, I said to myself, “Why do I think picking up rubbish is someone else’s duty?” And I couldn’t walk past trash without feeling guilty (内疚的). So while walking in the college, I began picking up rubbish and made sure the campus was in better shape than I previously found it. My behavior influenced some students. They started to help out. Like me, they also picked up rubbish whenever they noticed it. And our college became more beautiful. Seeing it, I began to think, “If I could pick up rubbish outside the college—in other places of the town, it may make a big difference to the town.” But picking up rubbish in front of many people outside the college needs courage. It could be embarrassing. But it was the right thing to do. I decided to try it. 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。 Paragraph 1: One morning, I went out to pick up rubbish. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Then I decided to encourage more students to do this in the town. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力： 1～5.ABAAC 6～10.CBCAB 11～15.BABCC 16～20.BCABC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2023—2024学年度下学期期中考试 高二英语(A) 时间：120分钟 满分：150分 考试范围：选必一，选必三第四单元前 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。 例： How much is the shirt?

Back in town, in a large park, they watched them return to the earth."Some day I’d love to do that," Thompson told Kenneth.”（在他们的三个孩子长大离开家后，玛格丽特·汤普森和她的丈夫肯尼斯开始在瑞士徒步度假。在因特拉肯，他们会爬到山上，观看滑翔伞飞向天空。回到城里，在一个大公园里，他们看着他们回到了地面。汤普森告诉肯尼斯：“总有一天我也想这么做。”）以及第二段中“Besides, Thompson didn’t know if Kenneth would have enjoyed it. "He was not so keen on heights as I was," she said. So she continued to watch the gliders take fight and land.”（此外，汤普森不知道肯尼斯是否会喜欢。“他不像我那么喜欢爬高，”她说。于是她继续观看滑翔伞飞行和降落。）可知，汤普森在观看滑翔伞运动员起飞和降落时，表达了自己希望有一天能够尝试滑翔伞的愿望。因此，她的兴趣和好奇心激发了她在80岁时尝试滑翔伞。故选A项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Although some people get scared while flying, she said she just feels free.”（虽然有些人在飞行时会感到害怕，但她说她只是觉得自由。）可知，汤普森在第一次尝试滑翔伞时并没有感到害怕，相反，她感到自由。故选C项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Is she scared of getting older? “Fear?

The famous tourist town of Wuzhen, China, is now using facial recognition technology to act as its entry pass through the gates of the attraction. The system uses cameras to notice people as they approach the entry, and checks these against a database of registered visitors within a few seconds. The technology is thought to be up to 99. 77 percent accurate and able to distinguish people better than a human. Wuzhen is a popular tourist town with visitors going there in large numbers to see its stunning river system and museums. Baidu, a web firm often referred to as “Chinese Google”, created the system. When people now check in to their accommodation, they will have their photo taken and uploaded to a central database upon leaving and re-entering the town, the system will re-check that they are still a guest at a hotel, before allowing them back in. The technology is being used to track the 5,000 visitors that stay in the town’s hotels every day. Yuan Qing lin, director of the Institute of deep Learning at Baidu, told The Verge, “With our technology, you don’t need to give your ID. When you are approaching a gate, it will take a photo of you and compare that photo to the database.” Wuzhen used to monitor its visitors using a ticket-entry system, but this could easily be abused. It was discovered that some people were sharing their tickets to avoid paying. Baidu’s system is based on neural networks, which can process huge amounts of data-more than one billion faces. As well as recognizing faces, the system can discover facial movements, so it can’t be fooled by holding a mask. Baidu is also using the software for employee entry at its Beijing headquarters. 8. What can be learned about the facial recognition technology from the passage? A. The technology could soon be a thing of the past. B. The technology can match visitor’s faces with those in the database. C. The technology can be over 99.77% accurate. D. The technology is being used to track where the 5000 visitors are going. 9. Which of the following word can replace the underlined word “stunning” in paragraph 2? A. humorous B. awkward C. attractive D. funny 10. Why has Wuzhen quit using ticket-entry system? A. Because the tickets were too expensive. B. Because some people shared their tickets to avoid paying. C. Because the tickets didn’t sell well. D. Because the system can be fooled by someone without a mask. 11. What is the passage mainly about? A. Chinese tourist town Wuzhen is using facial recognition. B. Baidu, a web company, is using the recognition system. C. Facial recognition is widely used in China. D. Wuzhen is a popular tourist town with many visitors going there to see the system. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。中国旅游城市乌镇已经采取了人脸识别系统以代替过去的身份证识别。文章主要介绍了该系统的实施给乌镇带来的好处，和该系统的运行原理。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The system uses cameras to notice people as they approach the entry, and check these against a database of registered visitors within a few seconds. (该系统使用摄像头注意到人们接近入口，并在几秒钟内将这些数据与注册访问者的数据库进行比对。)”可知，该系统使用摄像机在接近入口处获取访客的信息，并在几秒钟内对照注册访客数据库对其进行检查。也就是说，该技术能与数据库中的访客信息进行匹配。故选B。 【9题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线词所在句“Wuzhen is a popular tourist town with visitors going there in large numbers to see its stunning river system and museums. (乌镇是一个受欢迎的旅游城市，游客大量前往参观其stunning的河流系统和博物馆。)”可知乌镇是一个人们喜爱的旅游城市，游客去哪里肯定是去欣赏乌镇的美丽的水和迷人的博物馆。所以划线词的意思是“迷人的”。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Wuzhen used to monitor its visitors using a ticket-entry system, but this could easily be abused. It was discovered that some people were sharing their tickets to avoid paying.”(乌镇曾经使用门票系统来监控游客，但这很容易被滥用。人们发现，有些人为了不付钱而共用门票。) 可知，乌镇之所以停止使用票务入场系统，是因为有些人共用一张票以避免付钱。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“The famous tourist town of Wuzhen, China, is now using facial recognition technology to act as its entry pass through the gates of the attraction. The system uses cameras to notice people as they approach the entry, and checks these against a database of registered visitors within a few seconds.

As part of the world’s ecosystems wildlife provides balance and stability to nature’s processes. Wildlife conservation is aimed to ensure the survival of these species and educate people on living sustainably with other species. The number of people has grown to more than eight billion today, and it continues to rapidly grow. The economic growth endangers the habitats and existence of various types of wildlife around the world, particularly animals and plants that may be displaced for land development, or used for food or other human purposes. This threat is at top of the list and means natural resources are being consumed faster than ever by the billions of people on the planet. The introduction of invasive species from other parts of the world is another threat to wildlife. Other threats include climate change, pollution, fishing and hunting. International organizations like the World Wildlife Fund, Conservation International, Wildlife Conservation Society and the United Nations work to support global animal and habitat conservation on many different fronts. They work with the government to establish and protect public lands, like national parks and wildlife protection areas. They help write legislation(法规), such as the Endangered Species Act(ESA)of 1973 in the United States, to protect various species. They work with law enforcement to charge those with wildlife crimes. They also promote biodiversity to support the growing human population while preserving existing species and habitats. National Geographic Explorers, like conservation biologists Camille Coudrat and Titus Adhola, are working to slow the extinction of global species and protect global biodiversity and habitats. Environmental filmmakers and photographers, like Thomas P. Peschak, are essential to conservation efforts as well, documenting and bringing attention to endangered wildlife all over the world. 12. Which is a goal of wildlife conservation according to the text? A. To stop introducing invasive species. B. To encourage harmonious coexistence. C. To control the number of world people. D. To increase the use of natural resources. 13. What is the biggest threat to wildlife? A. Hunting. B. Human activity. C. Pollution. D. Climate change. 14. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The activities of protection areas. B. The importance of biodiversity promotion. C. The relevant efforts of international organizations. D. The great impact of wildlife crimes on ecosystems. 15. What does the author want to present in the last paragraph? A. The necessity of legislation. B. The wildlife conservation’s achievements. C. The individuals’ contributions to the environment. D. The statistics about the wildlife conservation efforts. 【答案】12. B 13. B 14. C 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了野生动物保护的重要性和措施。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Wildlife conservation is aimed to ensure the survival of these species and educate people on living sustainably with other species.(野生动物保护旨在确保这些物种的生存，并教育人们与其他物种可持续地生活在一起。)”可知，野生动物保护旨在确保动植物的生存，让人类与其他物种和谐共处。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The number of people has grown to more than eight billion today, and it continues to rapidly grow. The economic growth endangers the habitats and existence of various types of wildlife around the world, particularly animals and plants that may be displaced for land development, or used for food or other human purposes. This threat is at top of the list and means natural resources are being consumed faster than ever by the billions of people on the planet.(如今，世界人口已超过80亿，而且还在继续快速增长。经济增长危及世界各地各种野生动物的栖息地和生存，特别是动物和植物，它们可能因土地开发而流离失所，或被用于食物或其他人类目的。这一威胁高居榜首，意味着地球上数十亿人正在以前所未有的速度消耗自然资源。)”可知，人类活动是野生动植物的最大威胁。故选B。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“International organizations like the World Wildlife Fund, Conservation International, Wildlife Conservation Society and the United Nations work to support global animal and habitat conservation on many different fronts.(世界野生动物基金会、保护国际、野生动物保护协会和联合国等国际组织在许多不同的方面努力支持全球动物和栖息地保护。)”可知，第三段介绍了一些国际组织在保护野生动植物方面做出的努力。故选C。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“National Geographic Explorers, like conservation biologists Camille Coudrat and Titus Adhola, are working to slow the extinction of global species and protect global biodiversity and habitats. Environmental filmmakers and photographers, like Thomas P. Peschak, are essential to conservation efforts as well, documenting and bringing attention to endangered wildlife all over the world.(国家地理探险家，如保护生物学家Camille Coudrat和Titus Adhola，正在努力减缓全球物种的灭绝，保护全球生物多样性和栖息地。像Thomas P.

Injury 39. an 40. and 41. best 42. who##that 43. to continue 44. are inspired 45. to 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是跑步的好处以及在跑步过程中需要注意的事情。 【36题详解】 考查副词。句意：然而，如果你曾经亲自上路，你就知道跑步并不是那么容易。空格处用副词修饰动词hit，personal的副词是personally，意为“亲自”，故填personally。 【37题详解】 考查形容词。句意：成功和令人满意的跑步比我们看到的要多得多。空格处用形容词作定语，修饰名词run，run是“跑步”，用ing结尾的形容词satisfying修饰，意为“令人满意的”。故填satisfying。 【38题详解】 考查名词。句意：受伤绝对不是一件有趣的事。空格处用名词作主语，injure的名词是injury，意为“受伤”，此处为抽象概念，不可数，故填Injury。 【39题详解】 考查冠词。句意：确保你的鞋子能支撑你的步伐，这是一个简单的方法，可以帮助你保持身体安全和身体强壮。way是可数名词的单数形式，表泛指，前面要加不定冠词，easy是元音音素开头，因此不定冠词用an，故填an。 【40题详解】 考查连词。句意：合适的鞋子有助于你的体形，如果你的脚感觉良好，那么你可以增加你的跑步里程。“The right shoes help your form”和“if your feet feel good then you can add more miles to your run”之间是并列关系，因此空格处用and表并列，故填and。 【41题详解】 考查最高级。句意：最好的运动动力之一就是看到你周围的人也在做同样的事情。“one of +形容词最高级+名词复数”是固定搭配，表示“最……之一”，故空处填最高级。故填best。 【42题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：跑步社区一次又一次地提醒你，当你犹豫是否继续时，有人不会让你放弃自己。空格处引导的是限制性定语从句，从句中缺少主语，先行词people是人，因此空格处用who/that引导定语从句，故填who/that。 【43题详解】 考查不定式。句意：跑步社区一次又一次地提醒你，当你犹豫是否继续时，有人不会让你放弃自己。hesitate to do是固定短语，意为“犹豫做某事”，因此空格处是不定式to continue，故填to continue。 【44题详解】 考查时态，语态和主谓一致。句意：跑步组织中的跑步者有自己的旅程，但他们经常受到其他人努力工作的鼓舞，他们总是希望看到每个成员都坚持自己的旅程并获胜。空处为并列句的谓语动词，主语they（指代上文runners）和inspire是被动关系，由and they always want可知，时态是一般现在时，因此空格处是一般现在时的被动语态，主语they是复数，因此空格处是are inspired。故填are inspired。 【45题详解】 考查介词。句意：跑步组织中跑步者有自己的旅程，但他们经常受到其他人努力工作的鼓舞，他们总是希望看到每个成员都坚持自己的旅程并获胜。stick to是固定短语，意为“坚持”，因此空格处是介词to，故填to。 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节(满分 15分) 46. 最近，你们学校组织了一次School trip，目的地是一个湿地公园。请你给在新西兰的笔友Paul写一个Email，介绍这次活动。 内容包括：1. 活动内容；2. 感想。 注意：1. 写作词数应为80词左右；2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear Paul, ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Ming 【答案】Dear Paul, Our school organized a field trip to Xixi Wetland for students last weekend.

My parents traveled for a living, so Aunt Emily took care of me while they were away. One rainy morning, there was an old lady who was dressed in a bright orange coat carrying a rubbish bag and a stick. “What’s that old lady doing?” I asked Emily, pointing out the window to the street in front of the house. Hearing my question, Emily answered, “She’s picking up rubbish around here for fun.” “Oh,” I answered. “Interesting… Why would someone think picking up rubbish was fun?” For a long time, often saw that old lady—rain or shine—on my way to school. In the beginning, I thought she was crazy to pick up rubbish. However, I finally smiled and waved at her each time I saw her. Later, when I moved to college, I’d see rubbish in the grass and feel really angry about it. I’d think, “Why isn’t anyone picking up rubbish? People are so unconcerned!” But shortly after that, I said to myself, “Why do I think picking up rubbish is someone else’s duty?” And I couldn’t walk past trash without feeling guilty (内疚的). So while walking in the college, I began picking up rubbish and made sure the campus was in better shape than I previously found it. My behavior influenced some students. They started to help out. Like me, they also picked up rubbish whenever they noticed it. And our college became more beautiful. Seeing it, I began to think, “If I could pick up rubbish outside the college—in other places of the town, it may make a big difference to the town.” But picking up rubbish in front of many people outside the college needs courage. It could be embarrassing. But it was the right thing to do. I decided to try it. 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。 Paragraph 1: One morning, I went out to pick up rubbish. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Then I decided to encourage more students to do this in the town. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Paragraph 1: One morning, I went out to pick up rubbish. Some people watched me with a strange look that seemed to say I was crazy. And suddenly, I remembered that old lady who often picked up rubbish years ago. The interesting thing was that I was acting just like her! As strange as it might sound, picking up rubbish is kind of fun for me! Gradually, many people realized I was volunteering to help make our town clean. They praised me and thanked me. Paragraph 2: Then I decided to encourage more students to do this in the town. Surprisingly, they agreed and we set up a volunteer organization. We bought each student a bright orange coat with words on it: Let’s make our town cleaner! And we took time to not only pick up rubbish but also sort through it and recycle it. Something amazing happened—the strangers around us helped out too! I thought to myself: “The old lady made all this happen; she made a big difference in my life.” 【解析】 【导语】本文以捡垃圾为线索展开。讲述了作者在少年时经常见到一经常捡垃圾的老妇人，所以开始疑惑老人为什么经常捡垃圾，姑姑的一句“她捡垃圾是为了好玩”让作者对捡垃圾这件事情有了最初的认识。但是到了大学以后作者发现很多人对于草丛里的垃圾是视而不见时又有了新的困惑和担心。作者想捡，却又怕被嘲笑，但最终战胜了胆小的自己，勇敢地捡起了垃圾，而作者的行为也带动了更多的人来捡垃圾。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“一天早上，我出去捡垃圾。”可知第一段可描写作者在捡垃圾的过程中所遭遇的不解以及作者的动摇还有与胆小的自我作斗争的经过。 ②由第二段首句内容“然后我决定鼓励镇上更多的学生这样做。”可知，第二段可写作者怎样带领着其他人捡垃圾以及由此所带来的改变。 2.续写线索：我捡垃圾——别人的不解——自我斗争——战胜自我——带动别人捡垃圾——感悟。 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①捡垃圾：pick up rubbish/collect garbage/trash ②建立：set up/found ③决定：decide/determine/make up one’s decision 情绪类： ①表扬：praise/sing high praise for/think highly of ②感谢：thank/express one’ s gratitude/be grateful 【点睛】【高分句型1】And suddenly, I remembered that old lady who often picked up rubbish years ago.(使用了who引导的定语从句。) 【高分句型2】The interesting thing was that I was acting just like her!(使用了that引导的表语从句。) 听力： 1～5.ABAAC 6～10.CBCAB 11～15.BABCC 16～20.BCABC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
