For Bridgette Ponson, one of those moments took place in the parking lot at her workplace, Layton Christian Academy. While she was in the parking lot, her 2-year-old boy and 3-year-old girl in tow, a car hit them. This left the mother and her kids trapped beneath the car. Thankfully, the woman driver wasn’t driving very fast. At that moment, she was blinded by the sun. However, she got out of the car to help as soon as possible. Plus, she wasn’t the only one who stopped what they were doing to save Bridgette and her kids. Soon, Chris Crowder, CEO of the school, became aware of the accident. Without delay, he united a group of students to help. “It was split second,” Chris recalled. “I immediately just ran into the building because I knew I had to get a lot of people to lift this car. The students just heard me shout. All students from different countries just ran out and lifted it up.” Still, this wasn’t an easy task. The car was heavy. But the whole group of students worked together to lift the car enough for Bridgette and her kids to get free. Finally, one kid was flown to Primary Children’s Hospital while Bridgette and the other kid were taken by ambulance to the hospital. Although Bridgette took the brunt of the injuries, all three of them were expected to make complete recoveries within a few days. The heroic students who helped out certainly got their well-deserved praise. “I’m very proud of our kids. They ran out without hesitation, and they just knew what to do without even being told what to do. I’m even surprised by the driver who was behind the wheel. She immediately ran to help,” said Chris. 24. Which of the following caused the accident in the parking lot? A. The car was speeding. B. The driver was trapped in the car. C. Bridgette ignored the surroundings. D. The sunlight blocked the driver’s sight. 25. Why were the students gathered quickly by Chris? A. To meet foreign students. B. To avoid the car accident. C. To provide emergency aid. D. To lift the kids out of the car. 26. What can we conclude from paragraph 3? A. Many hands make light work. B. The hospital is no place to be sick. C. Injuries may be forgiven, but not forgotten. D. Praise makes good men better and bad men worse. 27. What did Chris think of the action to help? A. Passive. B. Hesitant. C. Timely. D. Expected. C The city of Venice, Italy, has finally made a long-awaited decision. Starting on August 1, 2021,cruise ships(游轮)will no longer be allowed to enter the city’s waters. Contrary to popular opinion, these cruise ship visitors contribute relatively little to the local tourism economy. The New York Times reported cruise ship passengers amount to 73% of visitors, but contribute a mere 18% of tourism dollars. ”The percentage is inverted for people who spend at least one night at a hotel; they represent 14%of visitors, but 48% of the business.” Many people are overjoyed by the news, especially environmental activists. Firstly, he cruise ships would disturb the waterways and erode(侵蚀)the foundations of already weak buildings. A 2019 study published in Nature found the waves created by large ships could “redistribute industrial pollutants already present in the waters.” Others have said these same waves carve huge holes in the underwater bottoms of buildings, making them unstable. Furthermore, when canals are deepened in order to allow larger boats, it destroys coastal habitats and makes floods worse. This is part of the reason why, in recent years, Venice has experienced terrible flooding that completely flooded St. Mark’s Square and other landmarks. The announcement came as a surprise as many did not expect the regional government to act so swiftly. In April a projected ban was issued, but it depended on finding an alternative port for the ships-a requirement that local people complained could take years to achieve. The announcement made last week, however, did away with that condition, allowing the city to move forward quickly with the ban. Hopefully more travelers are also realizing industrial-style tourism is a terrible way to travel for many reasons. It’s not unlike industrial agriculture and fast fashion in that its goal is to force as many sights, landmarks, and countries into as tight a schedule as possible, for as little money as possible. Its concentration on convenience erodes human connections, preservation of meaningful spots that make travel so valuable in the first place. 28. What does the underlined word “inverted” mean in Paragraph 2? A. Increased slightly. B. Looked down upon. C. Adjusted accordingly. D. Turned upside down. 29. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. Reasons for Venice’s terrible floods. B. Dangers cruise ships brought about. C. Reaction to the long-awaited decision. D. Damage erosion waves did to buildings. 30. What is Venetians’ attitude toward the April ban? A. Unclear. B. Hopeful. C. Doubtful. D. Unfavorable. 31. What is the best title for the text? A. Venice Says “No” to Cruise Ships. B. The Long-awaited Decision is Made. C. Cruise Ships Erodes Ancient Venice. D. Venice Tries to Preserve Its Waterway. D Concerns have existed long about what’s gone wrong in modern societies. Many scholars explain growing gaps between the haves and the have-nots as partly a by-product of living in large, urban populations. The bigger the crowd, from this perspective, the greater the distance is between the wealthy and those left wanting. In The Dawn of Everything, David Graeber and David Wengrow challenge the assumption that bigger societies surely produce a range of inequalities. Using examples from past societies, the pair also rejects the popular idea that social development occurred in stages. Such stages, according to conventional wisdom, began with humans living in small hunter-gatherer bands where everyone was on equal footing. Then an agricultural revolution (变革) about 12, 000 years ago fueled population growth and the appearance of tribes (部落) and eventually states. This assumption makes no sense to Graeber and Wengrow. Their research, which extends for 526 pages, paints a more hopeful picture of social life over the last 30, 000 to 40, 000 years. Hunter-gatherers have a long history of changing social systems from one season to the next, the authors write. About a century ago, researchers observed that native populations in North America and elsewhere often operated in small, mobile groups for part of the year and formed large, settled communities the rest of the year. For example, each winter, Canada’s Northwest Coast Kwakiutl hunter-gatherers built wooden structures while in summers, they separated, and fished along the coast in less formal social ranks. Social flexibility and experimentation, rather than a revolutionary shift, also characterized ancient transitions (转变) to agriculture, Graeber and Wengrow write. Middle Eastern village sites now indicate that the domestication (驯化) of crops occurred on and off from around 12, 000 to 9, 000 years ago. Ancient Fertile Crescent communities regularly gave farming a go while still hunting, gathering, fishing, and trading. Early people were in no rush to treat land as private property or to form political systems headed by kings, the authors conclude. 32. What might The Dawn of Everything mainly deal with? A. Historic stages. B. Social inequalities. C. Historic revolution. D. Social development. 33. What is the conventional idea about human societies? A They progressed in stages. B. They started with inequality. C. They began with small tribes. D. They benefited from population growth. 34. How does the author develop Paragraph 4? A. By listing figures. B. By offering examples. C. By giving a definition. D. By making a comparison. 35. What is a feature of ancient transitions to agriculture according to the book? A. A fixed political system. B. Flexibility of society. C. A regular revolutionary shift. D. Improvement of crops. 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。 When my school offered the opportunity to take part in a School Challenge, I didn’t hesitate to sign up for the initial meeting. ___36___ We decided to plan a three-week adventure in Romania.

At ages five and eight, Bobby and I would spend our usual Saturday with Grandpa, cleaning his house. Grandpa was only in his late fifties. His own dad had died early, so he didn’t go to school but ran the family farm to raise his family. Because of that, his skills consisted of being able to sign his name, read his grandchildren’s names, and do simple sums in his head. Then I didn’t understand the poverty and limited opportunities Grandpa lived with. A little food was the only items in his small refrigerator. He worked as a night guard for several companies, and the highlight of his week was the reward he gave my brother and me for cleaning. After we were done, Grandpa would put on his only suit, and we’d head to town. As we walked, Grandpa would greet every person he met along the way. Everyone had a story to share, and Grandpa would stand quietly, always smiling, and listen with great appreciation. When we’d finally arrive at Grandpa’s favorite diner, the waitresses would all greet him as a long-lost elder. Bobby and I split an adult plate, and Grandpa either had a cup of soup or a cup of coffee, talking about how well we cleaned his place, telling anyone who would listen every step of every task we accomplished. Every waitress would make sure they came up to say “hi” to Grandpa and congratulate his grandkids on their work. It may have been a diner, but it was our another home. When dinner was over, the waitress would bring the check and slide it over to Grandpa. One day it was Gloria, and like always she bent close to him and told him the amount of the check (knowing that he couldn’t read the paper). Grandpa carefully dug into the pocket and brought out a broken coin purse. He carefully laid out the bills and coins. Then he gave Gloria a very very small tip. I was ashamed that he had got it wrong and that he—we—would be embarrassed. 注意：1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I was about to say something to Grandpa when Gloria grabbed my hand. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The words “being nice” played over and over in my mind. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！6 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2023-2024学年第二学期高中英语人教版（2019）期末 复习监测金卷（六） 考生注意： 1.本试卷由四个部分组成。满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2.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） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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，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。 例：How much is the shirt?

For Bridgette Ponson, one of those moments took place in the parking lot at her workplace, Layton Christian Academy. While she was in the parking lot, her 2-year-old boy and 3-year-old girl in tow, a car hit them. This left the mother and her kids trapped beneath the car. Thankfully, the woman driver wasn’t driving very fast. At that moment, she was blinded by the sun. However, she got out of the car to help as soon as possible. Plus, she wasn’t the only one who stopped what they were doing to save Bridgette and her kids. Soon, Chris Crowder, CEO of the school, became aware of the accident. Without delay, he united a group of students to help. “It was split second,” Chris recalled. “I immediately just ran into the building because I knew I had to get a lot of people to lift this car. The students just heard me shout. All students from different countries just ran out and lifted it up.” Still, this wasn’t an easy task. The car was heavy. But the whole group of students worked together to lift the car enough for Bridgette and her kids to get free. Finally, one kid was flown to Primary Children’s Hospital while Bridgette and the other kid were taken by ambulance to the hospital. Although Bridgette took the brunt of the injuries, all three of them were expected to make complete recoveries within a few days. The heroic students who helped out certainly got their well-deserved praise. “I’m very proud of our kids. They ran out without hesitation, and they just knew what to do without even being told what to do. I’m even surprised by the driver who was behind the wheel. She immediately ran to help,” said Chris. 24. Which of the following caused the accident in the parking lot? A. The car was speeding. B. The driver was trapped in the car. C. Bridgette ignored the surroundings. D. The sunlight blocked the driver’s sight. 25. Why were the students gathered quickly by Chris? A. To meet foreign students. B. To avoid the car accident. C. To provide emergency aid. D. To lift the kids out of the car. 26. What can we conclude from paragraph 3? A. Many hands make light work. B. The hospital is no place to be sick. C. Injuries may be forgiven, but not forgotten. D. Praise makes good men better and bad men worse. 27. What did Chris think of the action to help? A. Passive. B. Hesitant. C. Timely. D. Expected. 【答案】24. D 25. C 26. A 27. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了在停车场发生的一起事故，一位母亲和她的两个孩子被车撞倒并被困在车下，学校的CEO Chris和一群学生及时提供了帮助，成功救出了他们。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“At that moment, she was blinded by the sun.”（那一刻，她被阳光晃得看不见。）可知，事故的原因是阳光使驾驶员视线受阻。故选D。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“I immediately just ran into the building because I knew I had to get a lot of people to lift this car.”（我立刻跑进大楼，因为我知道我需要很多人来抬起这辆车。）可知，Chris快速召集学生是为了提供紧急援助。故选C。 26题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“The students just heard me shout.

They ran out without hesitation, and they just knew what to do without even being told what to do. I’m even surprised by the driver who was behind the wheel.

Starting on August 1, 2021,cruise ships(游轮)will no longer be allowed to enter the city’s waters. Contrary to popular opinion, these cruise ship visitors contribute relatively little to the local tourism economy. The New York Times reported cruise ship passengers amount to 73% of visitors, but contribute a mere 18% of tourism dollars. ”The percentage is inverted for people who spend at least one night at a hotel; they represent 14%of visitors, but 48% of the business.” Many people are overjoyed by the news, especially environmental activists. Firstly, he cruise ships would disturb the waterways and erode(侵蚀)the foundations of already weak buildings. A 2019 study published in Nature found the waves created by large ships could “redistribute industrial pollutants already present in the waters.” Others have said these same waves carve huge holes in the underwater bottoms of buildings, making them unstable. Furthermore, when canals are deepened in order to allow larger boats, it destroys coastal habitats and makes floods worse. This is part of the reason why, in recent years, Venice has experienced terrible flooding that completely flooded St. Mark’s Square and other landmarks. The announcement came as a surprise as many did not expect the regional government to act so swiftly. In April a projected ban was issued, but it depended on finding an alternative port for the ships-a requirement that local people complained could take years to achieve. The announcement made last week, however, did away with that condition, allowing the city to move forward quickly with the ban. Hopefully more travelers are also realizing industrial-style tourism is a terrible way to travel for many reasons. It’s not unlike industrial agriculture and fast fashion in that its goal is to force as many sights, landmarks, and countries into as tight a schedule as possible, for as little money as possible. Its concentration on convenience erodes human connections, preservation of meaningful spots that make travel so valuable in the first place. 28. What does the underlined word “inverted” mean in Paragraph 2? A. Increased slightly. B. Looked down upon. C. Adjusted accordingly. D. Turned upside down. 29. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. Reasons for Venice’s terrible floods. B. Dangers cruise ships brought about. C. Reaction to the long-awaited decision. D. Damage erosion waves did to buildings. 30. What is Venetians’ attitude toward the April ban? A. Unclear. B. Hopeful. C. Doubtful. D. Unfavorable. 31. What is the best title for the text? A. Venice Says “No” to Cruise Ships. B. The Long-awaited Decision is Made. C. Cruise Ships Erodes Ancient Venice. D. Venice Tries to Preserve Its Waterway. 【答案】28. D 29. B 30. C 31. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。主要报道了意大利威尼斯市终于做出了一个期待已久的决定。2021年8月1日开始，游船将不再被允许进入城市的水域。 【28题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“The New York Times reported cruise ship passengers amount to 73% of visitors, but contribute a mere 18% of tourism dollars. ””（据《纽约时报》报道，邮轮乘客占游客的73%，但对旅游收入的贡献仅为18%。）以及“who spend at least one night at a hotel; they represent 14%of visitors, but 48% of the business.””（对于至少在酒店住一晚的人来说，他们只占14%的访客，却占48%的业务。”）故可猜测，对于至少在酒店住一晚的人来说，这一比例是“反向的”，结合选项D Turned upside down“颠倒”意思一致。故选D项。 【29题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段中“Firstly, he cruise ships would disturb the waterways and erode the foundations of already weak buildings. A 2019 study published in Nature found the waves created by large ships could “redistribute industrial pollutants already present in the waters.” Others have said these same waves carve huge holes in the underwater bottoms of buildings, making them unstable. Furthermore, when canals are deepened in order to allow larger boats, it destroys coastal habitats and makes floods worse.”（首先，游轮会扰乱水道，侵蚀本已脆弱的建筑的地基。2019年发表在《自然》杂志上的一项研究发现，大型船舶产生的波浪可能“重新分配已经存在于水域的工业污染物”。还有人说，同样的海浪在建筑物的水下底部凿出了巨大的洞，使它们变得不稳定。此外，当运河为容纳更大的船只而加深时，它破坏了沿海的栖息地，使洪水更加严重。）可知，第三段主要讲的是游轮带来的危险。故选B项。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“In April a projected ban was issued, but it depended on finding an alternative port for the ships-a requirement that local people complained could take years to achieve.”（今年4月，一项计划中的禁令发布了，但它取决于为船只找到一个替代港口——当地人抱怨说，这一要求可能需要数年才能实现。）故可推知，威尼斯人对4月禁令的态度是怀疑的。故选C项。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“The city of Venice, Italy, has finally made a long-awaited decision. Starting on August 1, 2021,cruise ships(游轮)will no longer be allowed to enter the city’s waters.”（意大利威尼斯市终于做出了一个期待已久的决定。从2021年8月1日起，游轮将不再允许进入城市水域。）可知，文章最好的标题是“威尼斯拒绝游轮”。故选A项。 D Concerns have existed long about what’s gone wrong in modern societies. Many scholars explain growing gaps between the haves and the have-nots as partly a by-product of living in large, urban populations. The bigger the crowd, from this perspective, the greater the distance is between the wealthy and those left wanting. In The Dawn of Everything, David Graeber and David Wengrow challenge the assumption that bigger societies surely produce a range of inequalities. Using examples from past societies, the pair also rejects the popular idea that social development occurred in stages. Such stages, according to conventional wisdom, began with humans living in small hunter-gatherer bands where everyone was on equal footing. Then an agricultural revolution (变革) about 12, 000 years ago fueled population growth and the appearance of tribes (部落) and eventually states. This assumption makes no sense to Graeber and Wengrow. Their research, which extends for 526 pages, paints a more hopeful picture of social life over the last 30, 000 to 40, 000 years. Hunter-gatherers have a long history of changing social systems from one season to the next, the authors write. About a century ago, researchers observed that native populations in North America and elsewhere often operated in small, mobile groups for part of the year and formed large, settled communities the rest of the year. For example, each winter, Canada’s Northwest Coast Kwakiutl hunter-gatherers built wooden structures while in summers, they separated, and fished along the coast in less formal social ranks. Social flexibility and experimentation, rather than a revolutionary shift, also characterized ancient transitions (转变) to agriculture, Graeber and Wengrow write. Middle Eastern village sites now indicate that the domestication (驯化) of crops occurred on and off from around 12, 000 to 9, 000 years ago. Ancient Fertile Crescent communities regularly gave farming a go while still hunting, gathering, fishing, and trading. Early people were in no rush to treat land as private property or to form political systems headed by kings, the authors conclude. 32. What might The Dawn of Everything mainly deal with? A. Historic stages. B. Social inequalities. C. Historic revolution. D. Social development. 33. What is the conventional idea about human societies? A They progressed in stages. B. They started with inequality. C. They began with small tribes. D. They benefited from population growth. 34. How does the author develop Paragraph 4? A. By listing figures. B. By offering examples. C. By giving a definition. D. By making a comparison. 35. What is a feature of ancient transitions to agriculture according to the book? A. A fixed political system. B. Flexibility of society. C. A regular revolutionary shift. D. Improvement of crops. 【答案】32. D 33. A 34. B 35. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍并评论了《万物的黎明》这本书。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“In The Dawn of Everything, David Graeber and David Wengrow challenge the assumption that bigger societies surely produce a range of inequalities. Using examples from past societies, the pair also rejects the popular idea that social development occurred in stages. (在《万物的黎明》中，大卫·格雷伯和大卫·文格罗挑战了一个假设，即更大的社会肯定会产生一系列的不平等。他们还用过去社会的例子，驳斥了社会发展是分阶段发生的这一流行观点。)”可知，《万物黎明》的主要内容是有关社会发展的。故选D项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Using examples from past societies, the pair also rejects the popular idea that social development occurred in stages. (他们还用过去社会的例子，驳斥了社会发展是分阶段发生的这一流行观点。)”可知，关于人类社会的传统观念是它们是分阶段进行的。故选A项。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“For example, each winter, Canada’s Northwest Coast Kwakiutl hunter-gatherers built wooden structures while in summers, they separated, and fished along the coast in less formal social ranks. (例如，每年冬天，加拿大西北海岸的Kwakiutl狩猎采采者会建造木结构，而在夏天，他们会分开，以不那么正式的社会阶层沿着海岸捕鱼。)”可知，作者在第4段是通过举例展开的。故选B项。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Social flexibility and experimentation, rather than a revolutionary shift, also characterized ancient transitions (转变) to agriculture, Graeber and Wengrow write. (Graeber和Wengrow写道，社会的灵活性和实验性，而不是革命性的转变，也是古代向农业过渡的特征。)”可知，根据这本书，古代向农业过渡的特点是社会的灵活性。故选B项。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When my school offered the opportunity to take part in a School Challenge, I didn’t hesitate to sign up for the initial meeting. ___36___ We decided to plan a three-week adventure in Romania.

At ages five and eight, Bobby and I would spend our usual Saturday with Grandpa, cleaning his house. Grandpa was only in his late fifties. His own dad had died early, so he didn’t go to school but ran the family farm to raise his family. Because of that, his skills consisted of being able to sign his name, read his grandchildren’s names, and do simple sums in his head. Then I didn’t understand the poverty and limited opportunities Grandpa lived with. A little food was the only items in his small refrigerator. He worked as a night guard for several companies, and the highlight of his week was the reward he gave my brother and me for cleaning. After we were done, Grandpa would put on his only suit, and we’d head to town. As we walked, Grandpa would greet every person he met along the way. Everyone had a story to share, and Grandpa would stand quietly, always smiling, and listen with great appreciation. When we’d finally arrive at Grandpa’s favorite diner, the waitresses would all greet him as a long-lost elder. Bobby and I split an adult plate, and Grandpa either had a cup of soup or a cup of coffee, talking about how well we cleaned his place, telling anyone who would listen every step of every task we accomplished. Every waitress would make sure they came up to say “hi” to Grandpa and congratulate his grandkids on their work. It may have been a diner, but it was our another home. When dinner was over, the waitress would bring the check and slide it over to Grandpa. One day it was Gloria, and like always she bent close to him and told him the amount of the check (knowing that he couldn’t read the paper). Grandpa carefully dug into the pocket and brought out a broken coin purse. He carefully laid out the bills and coins. Then he gave Gloria a very very small tip. I was ashamed that he had got it wrong and that he—we—would be embarrassed. 注意：1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I was about to say something to Grandpa when Gloria grabbed my hand. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The words “being nice” played over and over in my mind. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 I was about to say something to Grandpa when Gloria grabbed my hand. “Come and get some flowers today’s gifts, Susie,” she said as she led me toward the counter. “I want you to listen carefully, Susie,” Gloria said to me seriously. “You can’t do that. Your grandfather is very kind. Although his income is small, he has helped many people, including me. Everyone here respects him so much.” I listened carefully. “If you blame him for not tipping enough, it will not only embarrass Grandpa, but also make us sad. Just being nice.” Gloria continued. The words “being nice” played over and over in my mind. I listened to Gloria and stared at those flowers, deep in thought. I seemed to understand what Gloria said. “If you hadn’t appeared in time, I might have made a big mistake. May I have these flowers?” I whispered. “Of course.” she replied, smiling. I took the flowers and went straight to my grandfather, handing them to him with both hands and saying, “Thank you for treating us to a big meal.” Grandpa happily took the flowers and touched my head. Everyone in the restaurant was happy, too. 【解析】 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述周六作者和兄弟Bobby总是帮助爷爷打扫卫生。一次，爷爷带他们去餐厅吃饭。那里的人对爷爷和他们都非常亲切。但在爷爷给小费时，作者发现数额不对，正当作者准备说些什么时， Gloria出现，并借口把作者带到一边。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①根据第一段首句“我正要对爷爷说点什么，这时格洛丽亚抓住了我的手。”可知，下文可描写Gloria告诉作者不能说爷爷小费没给够的原因。 ②根据第二段首句““做个好人”这几个字在我脑海里一遍又一遍地播放。”可知，下文可描写作者听完Gloria话后的反应，以及采取的行动。 2. 续写线索：Gloria将作者带到一边——Gloria说明原因——作者看着花陷入沉思——明白自己差点犯错——把花送给爷爷并表示感谢——众人反应 3. 词类激活 行为类 ①帮助：help/assist ②出现：appear/show up/turn up 情绪类 ①开心的：happy/pleased/delighted ②伤心：sad/feel down 【点睛】【高分句型1】Although his income is small, he has helped many people, including me. （运用了although引导的让步状语从句） 【高分句型2】I seemed to understand what Gloria said.（运用了what引导的宾语从句） 【高分句型3】I took the flowers and went straight to my grandfather, handing them to him with both hands and saying, “Thank you for treating us to a big meal.”（运用了现在分词作状语） 1—5 ABABC 6—10 CAABC 11—15 ACBCC 16—20 AABCB 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！6 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
