Here are some products you don’t want to miss. Electric bicycle Brina 2 For many people,a daily commute (通勤) is often a source of headache. Emove Inc, an exhibitor from Argentina, has presented electric bicycle Brina 2 as a solution. Running on long-ange batteries, the e-bike has a maximum speed of 25 miles per hour. Almost all the components are designed within the carbon fiber frame. Its scientific design makes the ride more stable and comfortable than other conventional e-bikes. AI robot — a right-hand assistant for life and production AIrobot from AgileRobotsAG, a leading intelligent robotics company from Germany, helps make life and work easier. With the ability to synthesize (综合) and adjust motion tracks in real-time, the robot is a great assistant. For instance, it can aid humans in tasks like loading and unloading, polishing and quality inspection. Power-PROXT — a reliable stretcher bed Power-PROXT is an electric ambulance stretcher bed designed by Stryker Corporation from the U.S.Compared with traditional stretchers, Power-PROXT is driven by a high-speed motor that enables it to easily lift or lower a load weighing 318 kilograms within 2.4 seconds. More importantly, it can smoothly and safely lift and move, providing greater safety for patients. Sleeping cabin — a night guard for sound sleep A recent study found that more than two-thirds of surveyed university students in Brazil are experiencing poor sleep quality.The sleeping cabin made by The Dow Chemical Company from the U.S. can provide its users a better sleep. As a combination of great material and technology, the cabin can provide customers with a deeper and more refreshing sleeping experience. 21 Which product most probably interests a factory manager? A. Brina2. B. AI robot. C. Power-PROXT. D. Sleeping cabin. 22. What can Power-PROXT be used for? A. Travel to work. B. Quality control. C. First aid. D. Sleep improvement. 23. Which word can best describe these products? A. Cutting-edge. B. Eco-friendly. C. Cost-effective D. Efficiency-enhancing. B In 2015, Brian Peterson and his wife moved to Santa Ana, California, where they came across a homeless man named Matt Faris. Inspired by Love Does, a book about the power of love in action, Peterson decided to introduce himself. Despite Faris’ challenging circumstances, Peterson saw the beauty within him and asked to paint his portrait. This encounter led Peterson to establish Faces of Santa Ana, a nonprofit that befriends and paints portraits of unhoused community members. Starting from a black-and-white photo taken with his phone, Peterson chooses colors inspired by the subject’s personality and life story, creating a poignant portrait. He sells the finished canvases, signed by both the subject and artist, and shares the proceeds. Half goes into a “love account” for the model, which Peterson assists them in using to rebuild their lives. Many of Peterson’s new friends use the donations to secure immediate necessities — medical care, hotel rooms and food. However, Peterson has learned the importance of not assuming what someone needs and instead asks them directly. The impact has been profound. Faris, for example, used the money to record an album, fulfilling his musical dreams. Another subject, Kimberly Sondoval, used it to support her daughter’s rent, leading to a tear-filled and heartfelt moment as they cried in Peterson’s arms. Over the years, Peterson expanded his work with the creation of Faces of Mankind, a collective of artists painting portraits of homeless individuals nationwide. Peterson himself has painted 41 of these portraits. The nonprofit’s impact extends beyond financial support, however, as buyers of the paintings often connect with the subject’s story, finding similarities and often friendship with someone they might have otherwise overlooked or stereotyped. Peterson expressed his surprise at this transformation when he said, “People often tell me, ‘I see homeless people differently now.’ I didn’t know that would happen.” 24. What inspired Brian Peterson to set up Faces of Santa Ana? A. A book on kindness. B. His love for painting. C. His meeting with Faris. D. Faris’ deep despair. 25. What is special about Peterson’s portraits? A. They are created by using his imagination. B. They are signed only by the subjects. C. They mirror strong personal identities. D. They are painted from live events. 26. How would Peterson describe the impact of Faces of Mankind on the buyers? A. Temporary. B. Far-reaching. C. Foreseeable. D. Ground-breaking. C Australia is proud of a unique history that has been shaped by the diversity of her inhabitants. The three main elements that have been central to the creation of Australia’s population composition are the diversity of her native population colonization by the British in the past and the extensive immigration from diverse cultures. Australia is home to the world’s cultures and inhabitants who can identify with more than 270 ancestries (祖先). From the year 1945, the number of people who have immigrated to Australia from different parts of the globe is approximately seven million. The country considers the rich cultural diversity as its main strength which embodies its national identity. In 1975, there was the racial discrimination (歧视) act, which meant that discrimination in the country was against the law. Later in 1995, the act was extended to ensure that any acts of racial hatred (仇恨) were against the law. To date, the act has been used in ensuring that Australia sends a strong message on the collective commitment to promoting racial equality and the significance of fairness for all. On a range of measures, Australia is a multicultural success story. On educational attainment, studies show that children of immigrants in Australia get better average results than children of native-born Australians. This is significant because according to research conducted by the OECD, the successful integration of immigrant students is an important indicator of a country’s success in its education system and equity and broader socially combinative policies. The success in educational performance is mirrored in the broader economy of Australia as it attracts a significant proportion of skilled migrants annually who have a high labour market participation rate. In the year between 2016-2017, skilled migrants accounted for 67.3 percent of the total immigration program outcome that year. The net effect of a multiculturalism policy for Australia has been a brain gain for Australia and this is expected to continue growing. 27. What is paragraph 1 mainly about? A. The history of Australia. B. The customs of Australia. C. The character of Australians. D. The population structure of Australia. 28. What does the underlined word “embodies” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Maintains. B. Represents. C. Assesses. D. Predicts. 29. From which can we see Australia’s success in education? A. The higher educational standards. B. The better overall grades of students. C. The increasing number of immigrant children. D. The better performance of immigrant children. 30. In which aspect does educational success benefit Australia? A. Bringing in more skilled migrants. B. Reforming the immigration policy. C. Developing immigration programs. D. Making a booming labour market. 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。 Sharks have lived in the world’s oceans for millions of years. A shark has a very good sense of smell.

I walked with other volunteers into a large room in which there was a large variety of books. Some were picture books, such as Cifford or The Very Hungry Caterpillar. Others were chapter books with pictures in them, such as the Berenstain Bears and The Wimpy Kid series. For the extremely talented kids who like to be challenged, we provided chapter books that required imagination to understand. Just after I had gathered some books together, someone announced that it was almost time for the activity to start. All at once, a burst of voices was heard. The doors opened, and the children rushed in, beginning to look for a reading buddy（伙伴）. They all looked so eager to read, just like mice eager to taste a piece of cheese. I was sitting there waiting and glancing at the books that I had picked out for the lucky kid I would read them to. Just then, a boy about six years old began to come my way, and I knew that I had found my reading buddy. "Hi, I'm Max. Would you like to be my reading buddy?" "Sure," I responded. And then, I let him search for a book of his choice. "I like this one," shouted Max. I looked at the book that he had chosen. It told an adventure story of a little girl with her dog, and it seemed that it would be a good one to read to him. 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: "Can you tell me why you want this book?” I asked. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Then came the after-reading activities in which we interacted with each other. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 西安中学2023-2024学年度第二学期期末考试 高二英语试题 （时间：120分钟 满分：100分） 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分10分） 第一节 （共5小题；每小题0.5分，满分2.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What’s the woman going to do on Saturday?

Here are some products you don’t want to miss. Electric bicycle Brina 2 For many people,a daily commute (通勤) is often a source of headache. Emove Inc, an exhibitor from Argentina, has presented electric bicycle Brina 2 as a solution. Running on long-ange batteries, the e-bike has a maximum speed of 25 miles per hour. Almost all the components are designed within the carbon fiber frame. Its scientific design makes the ride more stable and comfortable than other conventional e-bikes. AI robot — a right-hand assistant for life and production AIrobot from AgileRobotsAG, a leading intelligent robotics company from Germany, helps make life and work easier. With the ability to synthesize (综合) and adjust motion tracks in real-time, the robot is a great assistant. For instance, it can aid humans in tasks like loading and unloading, polishing and quality inspection. Power-PROXT — a reliable stretcher bed Power-PROXT is an electric ambulance stretcher bed designed by Stryker Corporation from the U.S.Compared with traditional stretchers, Power-PROXT is driven by a high-speed motor that enables it to easily lift or lower a load weighing 318 kilograms within 2.4 seconds. More importantly, it can smoothly and safely lift and move, providing greater safety for patients. Sleeping cabin — a night guard for sound sleep A recent study found that more than two-thirds of surveyed university students in Brazil are experiencing poor sleep quality.The sleeping cabin made by The Dow Chemical Company from the U.S. can provide its users a better sleep. As a combination of great material and technology, the cabin can provide customers with a deeper and more refreshing sleeping experience. 21. Which product most probably interests a factory manager?

A 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了正在上海举办的第四届中国进口商品博览会中的部分产品。 【21题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“With the ability to synthesize (综合) and adjust motion tracks in real-time, the robot is a great assistant. For instance, it can aid humans in tasks like loading and unloading, polishing and quality inspection.(具有综合能力并实时调整运动轨迹，机器人是一个很好的助手。例如，它可以帮助人类完成装卸、抛光和质量检查等任务)”可知，这款只能机器人可能是工厂经理最可能感兴趣的产品，故选择B项。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Power-PROXT is an electric ambulance stretcher bed designed by Stryker Corporation from the U.S.(Power PROXT是一款电动救护车担架床，由美国史崔克公司设计)”可知，Power-PROXT是一款电动救护车担架床，可以用来急救，故选择C项。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“From sleep machines to Al - controlled house cleaning robots, a wide variety of advanced technologies and products are being exhibited at the 4th China International Import Expo (CIIE) in Shanghai.(从睡眠机器到铝控房屋清洁机器人，各种先进技术和产品正在上海第四届中国国际进口博览会（CIIE）上展出)”及文中四款产品的介绍可知，这些产品都是一些尖端产品，A. Cutting-edge.尖端的； B. Eco-friendly.环保的；C. Cost-effective划算的；D.

Inspired by Love Does, a book about the power of love in action, Peterson decided to introduce himself. Despite Faris’ challenging circumstances, Peterson saw the beauty within him and asked to paint his portrait. This encounter led Peterson to establish Faces of Santa Ana, a nonprofit that befriends and paints portraits of unhoused community members. Starting from a black-and-white photo taken with his phone, Peterson chooses colors inspired by the subject’s personality and life story, creating a poignant portrait. He sells the finished canvases, signed by both the subject and artist, and shares the proceeds. Half goes into a “love account” for the model, which Peterson assists them in using to rebuild their lives. Many of Peterson’s new friends use the donations to secure immediate necessities — medical care, hotel rooms and food. However, Peterson has learned the importance of not assuming what someone needs and instead asks them directly. The impact has been profound. Faris, for example, used the money to record an album, fulfilling his musical dreams. Another subject, Kimberly Sondoval, used it to support her daughter’s rent, leading to a tear-filled and heartfelt moment as they cried in Peterson’s arms. Over the years, Peterson expanded his work with the creation of Faces of Mankind, a collective of artists painting portraits of homeless individuals nationwide. Peterson himself has painted 41 of these portraits. The nonprofit’s impact extends beyond financial support, however, as buyers of the paintings often connect with the subject’s story, finding similarities and often friendship with someone they might have otherwise overlooked or stereotyped. Peterson expressed his surprise at this transformation when he said, “People often tell me, ‘I see homeless people differently now.’ I didn’t know that would happen.” 24. What inspired Brian Peterson to set up Faces of Santa Ana? A. A book on kindness. B. His love for painting. C. His meeting with Faris. D. Faris’ deep despair. 25. What is special about Peterson’s portraits? A. They are created by using his imagination. B. They are signed only by the subjects. C. They mirror strong personal identities. D. They are painted from live events. 26. How would Peterson describe the impact of Faces of Mankind on the buyers? A. Temporary. B. Far-reaching. C. Foreseeable. D. Ground-breaking. 【答案】24. C 25. C 26. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了布莱恩·彼得森创立非营利组织“圣安娜之脸”去帮助无家可归的社区成员交朋友，并为他们画肖像。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段第一句“In 2015, Brian Peterson and his wife moved to Santa Ana, California, where they came across a homeless man named Matt Faris.”（2015年，布莱恩·彼得森和他的妻子搬到了加利福尼亚州的圣安娜，在那里他们遇到了一个名叫马特·法里斯的无家可归者。）及最后一句“This encounter led Peterson to establish Faces of Santa Ana, a nonprofit that befriends and paints portraits of unhoused community members.”（这次相遇促使彼得森成立了“圣安娜之脸”，这是一个非营利组织，帮助无家可归的社区成员交朋友，并为他们画肖像。）可知，与法里斯的相遇启发布莱恩·彼得森成立了该组织。故选C项。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段第一句“Starting from a black-and-white photo taken with his phone, Peterson chooses colors inspired by the subject’s personality and life story, creating a poignant portrait.”（彼得森从用手机拍摄的黑白照片开始，根据拍摄对象的个性和生活故事选择颜色，创作出一幅令人心酸的肖像。）可知，彼得森会根据拍摄对象的不同，选择匹配他们个性和生活故事的颜色，说明他的画反映了强烈的个人身份。故选C项。 26题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Over the years, Peterson expanded his work with the creation of Faces of Mankind, a collective of artists painting portraits of homeless individuals nationwide. Peterson himself has painted 41 of these portraits. The nonprofit’s impact extends beyond financial support, however, as buyers of the paintings often connect with the subject’s story, finding similarities and often friendship with someone they might have otherwise overlooked or stereotyped.”（多年来，彼得森扩大了他的工作，创造了“人类的面孔”，一群艺术家在全国范围内为无家可归的人画肖像。彼得森自己画了41幅这样的肖像。然而，这家非营利组织的影响超出了经济支持，因为这些画作的买家往往与主题的故事联系在一起，找到了相似之处，往往与他们可能被忽视或刻板印象的人建立了友谊。）可知，Faces of Mankind对于买家来说，是影响深远的，不仅让买家为慈善事业做了贡献，更重要的是，这些画作形象逼真，能让买家思考那些被他们忽视的人们，重新构建人与人之间的联系。故选B项。 C Australia is proud of a unique history that has been shaped by the diversity of her inhabitants. The three main elements that have been central to the creation of Australia’s population composition are the diversity of her native population, colonization by the British in the past and the extensive immigration from diverse cultures. Australia is home to the world’s cultures and inhabitants who can identify with more than 270 ancestries (祖先). From the year 1945, the number of people who have immigrated to Australia from different parts of the globe is approximately seven million. The country considers the rich cultural diversity as its main strength which embodies its national identity. In 1975, there was the racial discrimination (歧视) act, which meant that discrimination in the country was against the law. Later in 1995, the act was extended to ensure that any acts of racial hatred (仇恨) were against the law. To date, the act has been used in ensuring that Australia sends a strong message on the collective commitment to promoting racial equality and the significance of fairness for all. On a range of measures, Australia is a multicultural success story. On educational attainment, studies show that children of immigrants in Australia get better average results than children of native-born Australians. This is significant because according to research conducted by the OECD, the successful integration of immigrant students is an important indicator of a country’s success in its education system and equity and broader socially combinative policies. The success in educational performance is mirrored in the broader economy of Australia as it attracts a significant proportion of skilled migrants annually who have a high labour market participation rate. In the year between 2016-2017, skilled migrants accounted for 67.3 percent of the total immigration program outcome that year. The net effect of a multiculturalism policy for Australia has been a brain gain for Australia and this is expected to continue growing. 27. What is paragraph 1 mainly about? A. The history of Australia. B. The customs of Australia. C. The character of Australians. D. The population structure of Australia. 28 What does the underlined word “embodies” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Maintains. B. Represents. C. Assesses. D. Predicts. 29. From which can we see Australia’s success in education? A. The higher educational standards. B. The better overall grades of students. C. The increasing number of immigrant children. D. The better performance of immigrant children. 30. In which aspect does educational success benefit Australia? A. Bringing in more skilled migrants. B. Reforming the immigration policy. C. Developing immigration programs. D. Making a booming labour market. 【答案】27. D 28. B 29. D 30. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章阐述了澳大利亚独特多元文化的历史成因、反歧视法律的实施及其作为多元文化成功范例的体现，特别是在教育成就和吸引技术移民方面展现出的积极影响。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。由文章第一段内容“Australia is proud of a unique history that has been shaped by the diversity of her inhabitants. The three main elements that have been central to the creation of Australia’s population composition are the diversity of her native population, colonization by the British in the past and the extensive immigration from diverse cultures.(澳大利亚以其独特的历史而自豪，这一历史是由其居民的多样性塑造的。形成澳大利亚人口构成的三个主要因素是:本土人口的多样性、过去英国人的殖民统治以及来自不同文化的大量移民。)”可知，该段主要讲述了澳大利亚人口结构的三个主要构成要素：原住民的多样性、英国过去的殖民以及来自不同文化的大量移民。因此，第一段主要讲述的是澳大利亚的人口结构。故选D。 【28题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句子“Australia is home to the world’s cultures and inhabitants who can identify with more than 270 ancestries (祖先). From the year 1945, the number of people who have immigrated to Australia from different parts of the globe is approximately seven million. The country considers the rich cultural diversity as its main strength which embodies its national identity.(澳大利亚是世界文化和居民的家园，他们可以认同超过270个祖先。自1945年以来，从世界各地移民到澳大利亚的人数约为700万。国家认为丰富的文化多样性是其主要优势，这embodies其民族身份。)”可知，从世界各地移民到澳大利亚的人数众多，导致了其文化多样性，同时体现了其民族身份，embodies在这里的意思是“体现”或“代表”。故选B。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“On a range of measures, Australia is a multicultural success story. On educational attainment, studies show that children of immigrants in Australia get better average results than children of native-born Australians.(从一系列衡量标准来看，澳大利亚是一个多元文化的成功故事。在教育成就方面，研究表明，澳大利亚移民子女的平均成绩优于本土出生的澳大利亚人子女。)”可知，澳大利亚教育成功的体现是移民子女更好的学习成绩。故选D。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“The success in educational performance is mirrored in the broader economy of Australia as it attracts a significant proportion of skilled migrants annually who have a high labour market participation rate.(教育成绩的成功反映在澳大利亚更广泛的经济中，因为它每年吸引着相当比例的高劳动市场参与率的技术移民。)”可知，教育成功给澳大利亚带来的益处是吸引更多技术移民。故选A。 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。 Sharks have lived in the world’s oceans for millions of years.

F 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了鲨鱼的有关信息，如鲨鱼的饮食，繁衍以及鲨鱼所处的现状。警告人们要注意保护鲨鱼，因为很多鲨鱼都处于灭绝的危险之中。 【31题详解】 考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据前一句“These powerful senses help them find their food.“讲述的是鲨鱼敏锐的感觉可以帮助他们寻找到食物。接下来的这句就应该介绍鲨鱼的食物具体是什么，G选项“鲨鱼以鱼、其他鲨鱼和海洋中的植物为食”，切题。故选G。 【32题详解】 考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据前句“About forty percent of the different kinds of sharks lay eggs.”说明讲述的是鲨鱼不同的繁衍方式。有的是产卵，有的是直接分娩出小鲨鱼，A选项“其他的则产下幼崽”切题，故选A。 【33题详解】 考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据本段最后一句“his protects the plants and other forms of life that exist in the oceans.”可知鲨鱼可以保护海洋里其他的一项生物，说明本段讲述的是鲨鱼的重要性，B选项“鲨鱼对世界海洋很重要”，切题。故选B。 【34题详解】 考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据下句“Shark liver oil is a popular source of Vitamin. The skin of a shark can be used like leather. ”可知,鲨鱼鱼肝油是一种常见的维生素来源。鲨鱼的皮可以像皮革一样使用。所以本段内容讲述的是鲨鱼的器官在市场上收到追捧，D选项“收藏者为鲨鱼嘴支付数千美元”，切题，故选D。 【35题详解】 考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据下句“ too many sharks in one area are killed, the group of shark may never return to normal population levels.”可知,如果一个地区有太多的鲨鱼被杀死，鲨鱼的数量可能永远无法恢复到正常水平。所以现在很多鲨鱼都处于灭绝的危险之中，如果我们再不保护鲨鱼，也许有一天它们就会消失，F选项“但有些鲨鱼正面临从地球上消失的危险”切题，故选F。 第三部分 语言知识运用（共四节，满分35分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 As a ski instructor for children, I work with all sorts of behavior challenges.

I walked with other volunteers into a large room in which there was a large variety of books. Some were picture books, such as Cifford or The Very Hungry Caterpillar. Others were chapter books with pictures in them, such as the Berenstain Bears and The Wimpy Kid series. For the extremely talented kids who like to be challenged, we provided chapter books that required imagination to understand. Just after I had gathered some books together, someone announced that it was almost time for the activity to start. All at once, a burst of voices was heard. The doors opened, and the children rushed in, beginning to look for a reading buddy（伙伴）. They all looked so eager to read, just like mice eager to taste a piece of cheese. I was sitting there waiting and glancing at the books that I had picked out for the lucky kid I would read them to. Just then, a boy about six years old began to come my way, and I knew that I had found my reading buddy. "Hi, I'm Max. Would you like to be my reading buddy?" "Sure," I responded. And then, I let him search for a book of his choice. "I like this one," shouted Max. I looked at the book that he had chosen. It told an adventure story of a little girl with her dog, and it seemed that it would be a good one to read to him. 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: "Can you tell me why you want this book?” I asked. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Then came the after-reading activities in which we interacted with each other. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】"Can you tell me why you want this book?" I asked. "I like adventure stories and I like dogs," he answered. I was delighted with his answer, and at once, I started to read to him. The story was so attractive to Max. He listened with great interest, totally lost in what was described in the story. He thanked me when I finished reading to him, looking so happy for having got the chance to listen to the story. Then came the after-reading activities in which we interacted with each other. "I wish I were the dog. Then I could go on an adventure," said Max as we were talking about the story. I laughed and encouraged him to come up with some different endings of the story, which all sounded pretty funny. In the end, we acted out the story together. You can imagine how happy he was. A book opens a door to a whole new world. That day, I helped Max open one, and I'm convinced that he will be able to open many more for himself in the future. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者在学校的服务组“Read 2 Me”担任志愿者，这是一个让志愿者有机会为小孩子朗读并与他们互动的活动。一个大约六岁的男孩麦克斯开始向作者走来，作者知道自己找到了阅读伙伴。作者看了看他选的那本书。它讲述了一个小女孩和她的狗的冒险故事，似乎读给他听会很不错。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我问：“你能告诉我你为什么想要这本书吗?””可知，第一段可描写麦克斯解释了喜欢他选的那本书的原因以及作者给他读书时麦克斯的状态以及读完后，麦克斯的感谢。 ②由第二段首句内容“然后是读后感活动，我们互相交流。”可知，第二段可描写作者与麦克斯的交流过程以及感悟。 2.续写线索：询问原因——麦克斯解释——麦克斯很喜欢听——对作者的感谢——交流——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 喜欢：like/be fond of 完成：finish/complete 鼓励：encourage /inspire 提出：come up with/put forward 情绪类 高兴的：happy/delighted/pleased 有吸引力的：attractive/appealing 【点睛】[高分句型1] He listened with great interest, totally lost in what was described in the story.
