Why Money Matters by Deborah Meaden You might recognize investor and business owner Deborah Meaden from TV’s Dragon’s Den. She shares her expert knowledge of how money works and shapes the world. Part of the Little Experts series, the book is easy-to-read with lots of lively drawings. Cash by Rashmi Sirdeshpande Subtitled “How to Earn It, Save It, Spend It, Grow It, Give It”, this is an entertaining and informative guide to managing your money. It’s designed to help children make the right decisions with their cash. The author is currently exploring non-fiction books as Writer in Residence for the reading charity Book Trust. Economics by Eduard Altarriba Get the bigger picture and explore the wider world of economics and finance with this illustrated book. It explores some of the complicated ideas you may have heard about, such as inflation and the cost of living, and it’s an interesting introduction to the ways that money affects our lives and society. Rebel Girls Money Matters by Alexa von Tobel Whether your piggy bank is empty or overflowing, you’ll find plenty of useful information in this fun financial guide from the creative team behind the Rebel Girls books. With interactive quizzes, Q&As with experts and real-life examples, it explains how credit cards work and how to create a budget. 1. What do “Why Money Matters” and “Economics” have in common? A. They are both written for adult readers. B. They both use pictures to explain things. C. They are both written by business owners. D. They both explain difficult economic ideas. 2. What is special about “Rebel Girls Money Matters”? A. It shows how money affects the society. B. It explains how to apply for a credit card. C. It includes quizzes, Q&As and examples. D. It costs you all the money in your piggy bank. 3. Who are the four books intended for? A. Children. B. Adults. C. Travelers. D. Experts. B There’s comfort in the bottom of a swimming pool. In the open air, the noises all demanded your attention: the lifeguard’s whistle, the slapping of feet across the ground, the voices asking for different things. It reminded me of the school cafeteria, packed with kids: too loud to read a book in. But beneath the surface, things were quiet. The sounds that used to annoy me lost all their power. Instead, they mixed with the splashing of the water and the gentle blub-blub of air bubbles escaping my nose. All the noises worked together to create a symphony. Harmony. Perhaps the best thing about the bottom of a swimming pool, though, was that at the bottom of a swimming pool, I was alone. I didn’t have to worry about anyone splashing or kicking or making fun of me. They were all far, far away up on the surface. It was only me. Just me. I used to wish I could live underwater. Mermaids (美人鱼) didn’t have to go to school. Mermaids didn’t call other mermaids nerds (怪胎). But once, when I came up for air, I spotted a girl my age at the other side of the pool. We locked eyes before I went back under, just for a second. I didn’t think anything of it — girls like her usually didn’t want to be seen around me — until I felt a soft tug on my ankle, and I spied her next to me. She actually wanted to talk to me. She wanted to be friends. So we talked. And I found out that she liked Pokémon and Warrior Cats just like I did. And we competed to see who could make the biggest splash, and when it got dark and the lights came on, we explored the depths of the pool together. I didn’t spend so much time at the bottom of a swimming pool after that. How could I when there was so much waiting for me on the surface? 4. What does the author think of the school cafeteria? A. Crowded and noisy. B. Quiet and empty. C. Harmonious and lively. D. Comfortable and satisfying. 5. The author mentions mermaids in paragraph 4 to . A. show his fondness of his schoolmates B. highlight his love of reading literature C. stress his desire for peace and being alone D. share his imagination of the underwater world 6. What was the author’s attitude toward the girl at first? A. Curious. B. Grateful. C. Impatient. D. Uninterested. 7. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. The Girl Who Saved Me B. The Benefits of Swimming C. The Bottom of a Swimming Pool D. The School Troubles that Pained Me C We are seeing the risks that A. I. presents to society. Deep fakes, a form of photoshop that creates realistic images with the help of A. I. learning, has been used for news reports. Chatbots and A. I. software have a well-documented history of showing racist behavior. The potential widespread job loss at the hands of A. I. puts us all at risk for economic and political trouble. In response, many people have called for increased regulation (监管). But most policymakers simply do not understand artificial intelligence enough to carry out meaningful regulations, and the speed at which A. I. is progressing makes it nearly impossible for them to catch up. The real solution? An A. I. pause, a short-time stop. Already, the idea has been supported by over 1,100 individuals involved in the artificial intelligence community. Under an A. I. pause, no development or research, academic or business, could be done to advance artificial intelligence beyond a certain “power level”. This would give governments the time to analyze and regulate the artificial intelligence field. They would be able to establish policies to protect the jobs of groups like truck drivers whose jobs could be wiped out by A. I.-driven cars. They could create bottom-line standards for crime recognition software to pass before it could be used by local police. On top of that, an A. I. pause could also be good to the companies and research groups developing A. I. models. A pause in the “A. I. arms race” could allow groups like OpenAI to devote more resources to addressing the faults in their current A. I. software rather than rushing to develop more advanced models. A pause could ultimately lead to a superior final product. A. I. could be one of the most beneficial inventions to the human race, but it could also be one of the most societally cataclysmic. With an A. I. pause, we’ll have the opportunity to improve upon and understand A. I. technology, while ensuring that its development is in harmony with our society. 8. What does the author imply in paragraph 2? A. A. I. is growing under control. B. Regulations make little difference. C. The government won’t fail to regulate A. I. D. Politicians should keep a closer eye on A. I. 9. What is the main idea of paragraphs 4 and 5? A. The reasons for an A. I. pause. B. The problems of an A. I. pause. C. The definition of an A. I. pause. D. The benefits of an A. I. pause. 10. What does the “A. I. arms race” in paragraph 5 refer to? A. A contest to build arms for robots. B. A contest to develop A. I. for the military. C. A competition for advanced A. I. technologies. D. A competition for A. I.-powered sports equipment. 11. What does the underlined word “cataclysmic” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Disastrous. B. Inspiring. C. Beneficial. D. Widespread. D However good the rest of that joke might be, the one thing we know for sure is that the person hearing a joke is far more likely to laugh if they are in the company of others, compared to being alone. Studies have shown that people are 30 times easier to laugh in company than when on their own. Laughter is a social behavior. It is infectious(有感染力的) and is caused by other people’s presence and their laughter. In fact, try listening to laughter, not the joke that produced it. It’s more than likely that you will find yourself beginning to laugh along in response. There appear to be two different sorts of laughter. There is the involuntary laugh, which is unlikely to be stopped. This sort of laughter is characterized by its length — it can continue for longer than you think you can bear, and the laugh contains major changes in pitch (音调) with a very high top note. And then there’s social laughter, the sort of laugh people give when they want to accept something. This polite laughter is characterized by less obvious pitch changes. Psychologists have established that people are good at telling the difference between these two different sorts of laughter. However, the ability to distinguish them is something we learn. A child cannot tell what is voluntary and what is social laughter. It is proved that the ability to understand laughter seems to be particularly relevant in happily married couples. Studies have shown that couples with lasting happy marriages use laughter as a way of dealing with the everyday stresses of married life. So the couple that laughs together, stays together. Laughter has developed to create and maintain the social groups that are necessary for us to advance, and it helps us to feel better by providing a way out for many of the difficult emotions that are unavoidable when living with other people. In fact, it’s a kind of glue that holds human societies together. 12. In what situation are people easier to laugh? A. Being alone. B. Hearing a really funny joke. C. Staying with their beloved pets. D. Listening to others’ infectious laughter. 13. Which of the following is a kind of involuntary laughter? A. Polite laughter. B. Social laughter. C. High-pitched laughter. D. Controllable laughter. 14 What is the connection between laughter and marriage? A. No laughter, no marriage. B. More laughter, happier marriage. C. Laughter comes before marriage. D. Laughter is easy, while marriage is difficult. 15. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning laughter? A. Laughter is a necessity for human survival. B. Laughter is a good way to deal with negative emotions. C. Laughter helps people make more contributions to the society. D. Laughter was created by some social groups to avoid bad emotions. 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。 It’s believed that knowing the best way to behave in common situations improves the quality of everyday life and that of people around you. _____16_____.

As Zack was making a sandwich, he saw his mom, Grace Garcia, step down the stairs with a sad expression on her aged face. “Zack,” Grace paused, trying to sum up her thoughts,“Ms. Savitt had a heart attack this morning.” Just then, Zack began recollecting the bitter memories of living across the street from Ms. Savitt. She would always yell at him to get off her lawn and to settle down to give the neighborhood a break from all of his noises. “Oh,” Zack said, “that’s too bad.” Grace Garcia could tell that Zack was actually not disappointed at all. She was shocked. This was because, when Zack was four years old, his parents divorced (离婚). His father left with most of the money. At that time, Grace did not have a job, so she was left with barely any money to support her and her son. It was Ms. Savitt that kindly offered for them to stay at her house at any time. If Grace was busy, she would take care of Zack for as long as necessary. Of course, Zack was aware of this years later, but he still did not realize the importance of Ms. Savitt in his life. Grace Garcia strictly said, “Zack, I have already scheduled for you and me to visit her in the hospital, tomorrow after school, ”Grace looked at Zack and noticed that he rolled his eyes with anger. “Do I really have to? I’m telling you, mom. Ms. Savitt always got really mad at me whenever I would not even do anything. And besides, I have plans tomorrow and I don’t want to waste my time going to a hospital and seeing that lady!” Zack was shocked at his own outbreak, that he didn’t even want to look in his mother’s eyes because he was too ashamed for treating his mom and even Ms. Savitt that way. 注意： (1)所续写短文的词数应为100左右。 (2)续写部分为一段，开头语已为你写好。 The next morning, Zack saw a note on the fridge. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1-5AABCC 6-10ABCBC 11-15ABBCB 16-20ACBCB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 衢州市 2024年6月高一年级教学质量检测试卷 英 语 注意事项： 1.全卷分试卷和答题卷。考试结束后，将答题卷上交。 2.试卷共10页，分第Ⅰ卷(选择题)和第Ⅱ卷(非选择题)两部分。满分150分，考试时间 120分钟。 3.请将答案做在答题卷的相应位置上，写在试卷上无效。 第Ⅰ卷 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共5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，并标在试卷的相应位置。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.

In the open air, the noises all demanded your attention: the lifeguard’s whistle, the slapping of feet across the ground, the voices asking for different things. It reminded me of the school cafeteria, packed with kids: too loud to read a book in. But beneath the surface, things were quiet. The sounds that used to annoy me lost all their power. Instead, they mixed with the splashing of the water and the gentle blub-blub of air bubbles escaping my nose. All the noises worked together to create a symphony. Harmony. Perhaps the best thing about the bottom of a swimming pool, though, was that at the bottom of a swimming pool, I was alone. I didn’t have to worry about anyone splashing or kicking or making fun of me. They were all far, far away up on the surface. It was only me. Just me. I used to wish I could live underwater. Mermaids (美人鱼) didn’t have to go to school. Mermaids didn’t call other mermaids nerds (怪胎). But once, when I came up for air, I spotted a girl my age at the other side of the pool. We locked eyes before I went back under, just for a second. I didn’t think anything of it — girls like her usually didn’t want to be seen around me — until I felt a soft tug on my ankle, and I spied her next to me. She actually wanted to talk to me. She wanted to be friends. So we talked. And I found out that she liked Pokémon and Warrior Cats just like I did. And we competed to see who could make the biggest splash, and when it got dark and the lights came on, we explored the depths of the pool together. I didn’t spend so much time at the bottom of a swimming pool after that. How could I when there was so much waiting for me on the surface? 4 What does the author think of the school cafeteria? A. Crowded and noisy. B. Quiet and empty. C. Harmonious and lively. D. Comfortable and satisfying. 5. The author mentions mermaids in paragraph 4 to . A. show his fondness of his schoolmates B. highlight his love of reading literature C. stress his desire for peace and being alone D. share his imagination of the underwater world 6. What was the author’s attitude toward the girl at first? A. Curious. B. Grateful. C. Impatient. D. Uninterested. 7. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. The Girl Who Saved Me B. The Benefits of Swimming C. The Bottom of a Swimming Pool D. The School Troubles that Pained Me 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了作者在游泳池底部找到的安慰和独处，以及与一个女孩的友谊如何改变了他的生活。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“It reminded me of the school cafeteria, packed with kids: too loud to read a book in.”（这让我想起了学校的食堂，挤满了孩子们：太吵了，无法在里面阅读书籍。）可知，作者认为学校的食堂拥挤且嘈杂。故选A。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Mermaids (美人鱼) didn’t have to go to school. Mermaids didn’t call other mermaids nerds (怪胎).”（美人鱼不用去上学。美人鱼不会叫其他美人鱼怪胎。）可推知，作者提到美人鱼是为了强调他对和平和独处的渴望。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第五段“I didn’t think anything of it — girls like her usually didn’t want to be seen around me — until I felt a soft tug on my ankle, and I spied her next to me.”（我没有多想——像她这样的女孩通常不愿被人看见在我身边——直到我感到有人轻轻地拉了一下我的脚踝，我发现她就在我旁边。）可推知，作者对那个女孩起初并不感兴趣。故选D。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，尤其是文章第一段“There’s comfort in the bottom of a swimming pool.”（在游泳池底很舒服）的最后一段“I didn’t spend so much time at the bottom of a swimming pool after that. How could I when there was so much waiting for me on the surface?”（从那以后，我就没有在泳池底呆太久了。表面上有那么多东西在等着我，我怎么能待在游泳池底部呢？）可推知，文章的主题是关于作者在游泳池底部的体验和感受。所以短文的标题为“游泳池底部”。故选C。 C We are seeing the risks that A. I. presents to society. Deep fakes, a form of photoshop that creates realistic images with the help of A. I. learning, has been used for news reports. Chatbots and A. I. software have a well-documented history of showing racist behavior. The potential widespread job loss at the hands of A. I. puts us all at risk for economic and political trouble. In response, many people have called for increased regulation (监管). But most policymakers simply do not understand artificial intelligence enough to carry out meaningful regulations, and the speed at which A. I. is progressing makes it nearly impossible for them to catch up. The real solution? An A. I. pause, a short-time stop. Already, the idea has been supported by over 1,100 individuals involved in the artificial intelligence community. Under an A. I. pause, no development or research, academic or business, could be done to advance artificial intelligence beyond a certain “power level”. This would give governments the time to analyze and regulate the artificial intelligence field. They would be able to establish policies to protect the jobs of groups like truck drivers whose jobs could be wiped out by A. I.-driven cars. They could create bottom-line standards for crime recognition software to pass before it could be used by local police. On top of that, an A. I. pause could also be good to the companies and research groups developing A. I. models. A pause in the “A. I. arms race” could allow groups like OpenAI to devote more resources to addressing the faults in their current A. I. software rather than rushing to develop more advanced models. A pause could ultimately lead to a superior final product. A. I. could be one of the most beneficial inventions to the human race, but it could also be one of the most societally cataclysmic. With an A. I. pause, we’ll have the opportunity to improve upon and understand A. I. technology, while ensuring that its development is in harmony with our society. 8. What does the author imply in paragraph 2? A. A. I. is growing under control. B. Regulations make little difference. C. The government won’t fail to regulate A. I. D. Politicians should keep a closer eye on A. I. 9. What is the main idea of paragraphs 4 and 5? A. The reasons for an A. I. pause. B. The problems of an A. I. pause. C. The definition of an A. I. pause. D. The benefits of an A. I. pause. 10. What does the “A. I. arms race” in paragraph 5 refer to? A. A contest to build arms for robots. B. A contest to develop A. I. for the military. C. A competition for advanced A. I. technologies. D. A competition for A. I.-powered sports equipment. 11 What does the underlined word “cataclysmic” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Disastrous. B. Inspiring. C. Beneficial. D. Widespread. 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述人工智能给社会带来潜在的风险，对此真正的解决方案是暂停AI系统开发，并描述了这样做的好处。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“In response, many people have called for increased regulation (监管). But most policymakers simply do not understand artificial intelligence enough to carry out meaningful regulations, and the speed at which A. I. is progressing makes it nearly impossible for them to catch up.(对此，许多人呼吁加强监管。但大多数政策制定者对人工智能的了解还不足以实施有意义的法规，而人工智能的发展速度使他们几乎不可能赶上)”可知，监管没有什么作用。故选B。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段中“This would give governments the time to analyze and regulate the artificial intelligence field.(这将使政府有时间分析和规范人工智能领域)”和第五段中“On top of that, an A. I. pause could also be good to the companies and research groups developing A. I. models.(最重要的是，暂停人工智能也可能对开发人工智能模型的公司和研究团体有好处)”可知，这两段讲述了暂停AI开发的好处，故选D。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第五段中“On top of that, an A. I. pause could also be good to the companies and research groups developing A. I. models. A pause in the “A. I. arms race” could allow groups like OpenAI to devote more resources to addressing the faults in their current A. I. software rather than rushing to develop more advanced models.(最重要的是，暂停人工智能也可能对开发人工智能模型的公司和研究团体有好处。‘人工智能军备竞赛’的暂停可以让像OpenAI这样的组织投入更多的资源来解决他们当前人工智能软件中的缺陷，而不是急于开发更先进的模型)”可知，“人工智能军备竞赛”指的是开发先进人工智能技术的竞赛，故选C。 【11题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词前“A. I. could be one of the most beneficial inventions to the human race(人工智能可能是对人类最有益的发明之一)”和转折词but可知，此处是描述人工智能的利弊，指“但它也可能是最具社会灾难性的发明之一”，cataclysmic意为“灾难性的”，故选A。 D However good the rest of that joke might be, the one thing we know for sure is that the person hearing a joke is far more likely to laugh if they are in the company of others, compared to being alone. Studies have shown that people are 30 times easier to laugh in company than when on their own. Laughter is a social behavior. It is infectious(有感染力的) and is caused by other people’s presence and their laughter. In fact, try listening to laughter, not the joke that produced it. It’s more than likely that you will find yourself beginning to laugh along in response. There appear to be two different sorts of laughter. There is the involuntary laugh, which is unlikely to be stopped. This sort of laughter is characterized by its length — it can continue for longer than you think you can bear, and the laugh contains major changes in pitch (音调) with a very high top note. And then there’s social laughter, the sort of laugh people give when they want to accept something. This polite laughter is characterized by less obvious pitch changes. Psychologists have established that people are good at telling the difference between these two different sorts of laughter. However, the ability to distinguish them is something we learn. A child cannot tell what is voluntary and what is social laughter. It is proved that the ability to understand laughter seems to be particularly relevant in happily married couples. Studies have shown that couples with lasting happy marriages use laughter as a way of dealing with the everyday stresses of married life. So the couple that laughs together, stays together. Laughter has developed to create and maintain the social groups that are necessary for us to advance, and it helps us to feel better by providing a way out for many of the difficult emotions that are unavoidable when living with other people. In fact, it’s a kind of glue that holds human societies together. 12. In what situation are people easier to laugh? A. Being alone. B. Hearing a really funny joke. C. Staying with their beloved pets. D. Listening to others’ infectious laughter. 13. Which of the following is a kind of involuntary laughter? A. Polite laughter. B. Social laughter. C. High-pitched laughter. D. Controllable laughter. 14. What is the connection between laughter and marriage? A. No laughter, no marriage. B. More laughter, happier marriage. C. Laughter comes before marriage. D. Laughter is easy, while marriage is difficult. 15. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning laughter? A. Laughter is a necessity for human survival. B. Laughter is a good way to deal with negative emotions. C. Laughter helps people make more contributions to the society. D. Laughter was created by some social groups to avoid bad emotions. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍了两种笑声以及笑的作用。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“However good the rest of that joke might be, the one thing we know for sure is that the person hearing a joke is far more likely to laugh if they are in the company of others, compared to being alone. Studies have shown that people are 30 times easier to laugh in company than when on their own. Laughter is a social behavior. It is infectious (有感染力的) and is caused by other people’s presence and their laughter.(不管这个笑话的其余部分有多好，我们可以肯定的是，与一个人相比，听到笑话的人在别人的陪伴下更有可能笑。研究表明，人们在别人面前笑的几率是独自一人时的30倍。笑是一种社会行为。它是有感染力的，是由其他人的存在和他们的笑声引起的)”可知，人们在听到别人有染力的笑声时更容易笑，故选D。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“There is the involuntary laugh, which is unlikely to be stopped. This sort of laughter is characterized by its length — it can continue for longer than you think you can bear, and the laugh contains major changes in pitch (音调) with a very high top note.(有一种不由自主的笑声，不太可能停止。这种笑声的特点是它的长度——它可以持续的时间比你认为你可以忍受的长，笑声包含音调的主要变化和一个非常高的最高音符)”可知，音调高的笑声是不由自主的笑声，故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“It is proved that the ability to understand laughter seems to be particularly relevant in happily married couples. Studies have shown that couples with lasting happy marriages use laughter as a way of dealing with the everyday stresses of married life. So the couple that laughs together, stays together.(事实证明，理解笑声的能力似乎与幸福的已婚夫妇特别相关。研究表明，拥有长久幸福婚姻的夫妇用笑来应对婚姻生活的日常压力。所以一起笑的情侣，就会一直在一起)”可知，笑声越多，婚姻越幸福，故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段内容“Laughter has developed to create and maintain the social groups that are necessary for us to advance, and it helps us to feel better by providing a way out for many of the difficult emotions that are unavoidable when living with other people.(笑已经发展到创造和维持社会群体，这是我们进步所必需的，它通过为与他人生活时不可避免的许多困难情绪提供一条出路，帮助我们感觉更好)”可知，本段主要讲述笑是处理负面情绪的好方法，故选B。 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。 It’s believed that knowing the best way to behave in common situations improves the quality of everyday life and that of people around you. _____16_____.

I am going to talk about one real hero in my heart. In my opinion, a hero is someone or something that has a power of inspiring and guiding others. He was a famous physicist who studies the universe and made big achievements. He had serious physical problems, and can only move one finger. But he never gave up life, and he never stopped considering about the most difficult physics puzzles. He was Stephen Williams Hawking. His strong will for life and great enthusiasm for science helped him to ignore the terrible disease and kept thinking. Hawking interpreted the saying “While there’s life, there is hope”. When I am faced with adversity, it is his heroic spirit that inspires me to overcome difficulties and continue moving forward. From now on, tell yourself to have a valuable goal, take the spirits that we learn from Hawking, and then: Are you ready to be a hero?

As Zack was making a sandwich, he saw his mom, Grace Garcia, step down the stairs with a sad expression on her aged face. “Zack,” Grace paused, trying to sum up her thoughts,“Ms. Savitt had a heart attack this morning.” Just then, Zack began recollecting the bitter memories of living across the street from Ms. Savitt. She would always yell at him to get off her lawn and to settle down to give the neighborhood a break from all of his noises. “Oh,” Zack said, “that’s too bad.” Grace Garcia could tell that Zack was actually not disappointed at all. She was shocked. This was because, when Zack was four years old, his parents divorced (离婚). His father left with most of the money. At that time, Grace did not have a job, so she was left with barely any money to support her and her son. It was Ms. Savitt that kindly offered for them to stay at her house at any time. If Grace was busy, she would take care of Zack for as long as necessary. Of course, Zack was aware of this years later, but he still did not realize the importance of Ms. Savitt in his life. Grace Garcia strictly said, “Zack, I have already scheduled for you and me to visit her in the hospital, tomorrow after school, ”Grace looked at Zack and noticed that he rolled his eyes with anger. “Do I really have to? I’m telling you, mom. Ms. Savitt always got really mad at me whenever I would not even do anything. And besides, I have plans tomorrow and I don’t want to waste my time going to a hospital and seeing that lady!” Zack was shocked at his own outbreak, that he didn’t even want to look in his mother’s eyes because he was too ashamed for treating his mom and even Ms. Savitt that way. 注意： (1)所续写短文的词数应为100左右。 (2)续写部分为一段，开头语已为你写好。 The next morning, Zack saw a note on the fridge. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 The next morning, Zack saw a note on the fridge. It was from his mom, saying she had to go to work early and would meet him at the hospital later. He sighed, knowing he couldn’t avoid the visit. As he made his way to the hospital, his thoughts drifted back to the past, recalling Ms. Savitt’s kindness and his own childish behavior. When he entered her room, he was surprised to see how frail and vulnerable she looked. His heart softened, and he approached her bed with genuine concern. That day, Zack realized the true value of kindness and learned to appreciate the people who had helped him in his life. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。周四下午，扎克做三明治时，母亲格蕾丝哀伤告知：邻居萨维特女士心脏病发。扎克忆及她曾因小事责骂自己，闻讯竟未显难过，使格蕾丝惊讶。回想艰难岁月，萨维特曾无私援手，助困顿中的母子渡过难关，而扎克对此恩情似未充分理解。格蕾丝坚持次日带扎克探病，扎克不满，以已有安排为由拒绝，事后对自己的无礼反应感到震惊与羞愧。 【详解】1.段落续写 由句首内容“第二天早上，扎克看到冰箱上有一张纸条。”可知，本段可以描写扎克看到纸条后的心理活动和见到萨维特女士后的情景。 2.续写线索：看到纸条—知道无法避免—走进病房—感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①认识到：know/realize ②避免：avoid/escape ③前往：make one’s way to/go to 情绪类 ①惊讶的：surprised/amazed ②感激：appreciate/be thankful to 【点睛】【高分句型1】It was from his mom, saying she had to go to work early and would meet him at the hospital later.
