Her desire to help others was awakened when she accompanied her Tunisian father to his hometown in the eastern part of Tunisia during vacations. During her time there, she organized homework clubs and activities for children. Toumi personally witnessed the negative effects of desertification (沙漠化). She realized that within 10 years, wealthy farmers had become worse off. Toumi was determined to stop the progression of the Sahara Desert. Due to a decrease in average rainfall and an increase in severe droughts (干旱), nearly 75% of Tunisia’s agricultural lands are currently at risk of desertification. Toumi understood the need for a change in farming practices. She firmly believed that even small plots of land could bring significant returns if farmers were willing to adapt. This adaptation involved planting sustainable crops, using advanced water treatment technologies, and using natural products and fertilizers (肥料) instead of chemical alternatives. In 2012, Toumi took a decisive step towards realizing her dream of fighting desertification. She moved to Tunisia and set up a program called Acacias for All, with the aim of putting her sustainable farming ideas into action. “I want to show young people in the countryside that they can create opportunities where they are. Nobody is better able to understand the impact of desertification and climate change than somebody who is living without water.” By September 2016, over 130,000 acacia trees had been planted on 20 pilot farms, with a survival rate of 60% reported by farmers. Toumi estimates that around 3 million acacia trees are required to protect Tunisia’s farmland. She plans to plant 1 million trees by 2018. In the coming years, Toumi aims to promote the program to Algeria and Morocco. 4. How did Toumi’s holiday trips to Tunisia influence her? A. They made her decide to leave the country. B. They helped her better understand her father. C. They destroyed her dream of being a teacher. D. They inspired her to take action to help others. 5. What is the main cause of the desertification of Tunisia’s farmland? A. Cold weather. B. Soil pollution. C. Low rainfall. D. Forest damage. 6. Why did Toumi start Acacias for All in Tunisia? A. To ensure access to primary education for children. B. To promote the protection of agricultural land. C. To create job opportunities for young people. D. To persuade the farmers not to use fertilizers. 7. Which of the following can best describe Toumi? A. Determined and helpful. B. Considerate and calm. C. Wealthy and academic. D. Thankful and flexible. C Do you ever get restless if you haven’t checked your phone for a few minutes? If so, you’re not alone. Studies reveal that people these days check their phones once every four minutes on average! Some of this usage may be related to work. However, much of it is because many apps — particularly social media apps — use “clever techniques” to keep us coming back for more. One of such techniques is to push notifications. You’re getting on with your work or something else when — ping! — a notification pops up on your screen, informing you that a friend has posted something new or commented on your post. It may seem like a small interruption, but it often is enough to break your concentration and make you go back to your phone again. Another method is to make a game of the in-app experience by setting up a competitive goal element. Some apps, for example, uses streaks (连续纪录), which count the number of days you have used the app. If you keep a streak going, you might get a medal or some other rewards. Therefore, keeping one’s streak alive becomes a major reason to return to the app again and again. Once you’ve opened an app its goal is now to get you continue using it. Messaging apps use a simple but effective trick to keep you engaged even when you’re not writing anything. Have you ever noticed that in some apps, three dots (…) appear to let you know your friend is typing a reply? This trick is designed specifically to create your expectation or curiosity. You wonder what your friend is going to say. Well, you’ll have to keep waiting and see. While using social media apps is certainly fun, becoming addicted definitely isn’t. Now that you know some tricks used by these apps’ designers, you’ll be better equipped to reduce their influence and keep a healthier relationship with your phone. 8. What does the underlined word “reveal” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Encourage. B. Predict. C. Prevent. D. Show. 9. What is special about an app using streaks? A. Ongoing pings will inform you of new posts. B. Competitive games will greatly discourage you. C. Everyday use of the app might earn you a medal. D. Appearance of three dots might disturb your typing. 10. There are “clever techniques” mentioned in the passage. A. two B. three C. four D. five 11. What is the best title for the text? A. The Tricks That Keep You Glued to Your Phone. B. Can People Break Their Addition to Games? C. Could Technology Further Improve Phones? D. The Social Media Apps That Waste Your Time. D A new study reveals that trees can communicate and warn each other of danger. “For the first time, researchers have been able to visualize plant-to-plant communication,” said Masatsugu, senior author of the study. The idea of talking trees started to take root in the 1980s. Two scientists found that damaged trees began producing chemicals that made their leaves unappetizing and indigestible to discourage insects. The trees then sent chemical signals to one another through the air. Over the past four decades, scientists have observed this cell-to-cell communication in more than 30 plant species. Past research shows plants communicate with their surroundings by releasing chemicals known as volatile (易挥发的) organic compounds. One class of these compounds are released when a plant is injured: green leafy volatiles. These are released by, as the name suggests, pretty much every green plant with leaves, and are produced when a plant experiences physical damage. An example of these compounds is the smell released from fresh-cut grass. In the new study, Masatsugu and his colleagues manually damaged leaves and placed insects on tomato plants to trigger the release of various green leafy volatiles. After testing many of them, the team found it seemed to increase calcium ions (钙离子) inside cells. The calcium signaling is like a switch to turn on the defense responses from the plants. With this new understanding, researchers say plants could be immunized against threats and stressors before they even happen. For instance, exposing healthy plants to insect-ridden plants or the associated green leafy volatiles could boost their genetic defenses, so farmers use less pesticides. The revelation could also help make plants more resilient (有复原力的) during a drought, signaling the plants to conserve more water. 12. What does the new research find? A. Trees can inform other trees of potential threats. B. Trees can make themselves attractive. C. Trees will send signals first once damaged. D. Trees will work together to trick insects. 13. What can be learnt about green leafy volatiles? A. They defend insects. B. They kill insects. C. Some of them can be smelt. D. Some of them can be seen. 14. How was the study carried out by Masatsugu? A. By protecting trees from insects. B. By classifying green leafy volatiles. C. By increasing calcium ions inside cells. D. By causing the release of certain chemicals. 15. What aspect of the new study does the last paragraph focus on? A. Its target. B. Its process. C. Its application. D. Its background. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Improve Vocabulary Fast Your vocabulary refers to the words in a language you are familiar with.

Slowly night fell. Bob was asleep in the front seat of the car. As Markita drove carefully down the winding dirt road, she turned onto a narrow bridge. As she did, the car hit a rock and ran off the road, and the right front wheel got stuck. Fearing the car would tip over, she attempted to drive it back onto the road by pressing hard on the gas pedal (油门) and turning the steering wheel (方向盘) to the left. But Bob’s foot got caught between his mother’s leg and the steering wheel and she lost control of the car. The car rolled over and hit a deep valley. Bob could hardly get his breath back. “What happened Mama?” he asked. “Our wheels are pointing toward the sky.” Markita was blinded by blood. She was too painful to move and cry for help. “I’ll get you out, Mama,” said Bob, who had luckily escaped injury. He managed to get out of the car through the open window and tried to pull his mother out. But she couldn’t move. “Just let me sleep,” replied Markita, who seemed to be out of consciousness (意识). “No, Mama,” Bob continued. “You can’t sleep.” Bob reached her mother and tried to pull her out of the car, but failed. He then told her he'd climb up to the road and stop a car to get help. Fearing that no one would be able to see her little boy in the dark, Markita refused to let him go alone. Instead, Markita did her best to open the door. She moved inches at a time. The pain was so great that Markita wanted to give up, but Bob wouldn’t let her. 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。 To keep his mother moving, Bob repeated the words his mother told him. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ About an hour later, Bob and his mother finally reached the road._ __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 华州区2023-2024学年第二学期高二年级 期末质量检测英语科试卷 考生注意： 1.本试卷分四部分，共12页。满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2.答题前，考生务必用直径0.5 毫米黑色墨水签字笔将密封线内项目填写清楚。 3.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） 回答听力部分时，请先将答案标在试卷上。听力部分结束前，你将有两分钟的时间将你的答案转涂到客观题答题卡上。 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。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?

In 2012, Toumi took a decisive step towards realizing her dream of fighting desertification. She moved to Tunisia and set up a program called Acacias for All, with the aim of putting her sustainable farming ideas into action. “I want to show young people in the countryside that they can create opportunities where they are. Nobody is better able to understand the impact of desertification and climate change than somebody who is living without water.” By September 2016, over 130,000 acacia trees had been planted on 20 pilot farms, with a survival rate of 60% reported by farmers. Toumi estimates that around 3 million acacia trees are required to protect Tunisia’s farmland. She plans to plant 1 million trees by 2018. In the coming years, Toumi aims to promote the program to Algeria and Morocco. 4. How did Toumi’s holiday trips to Tunisia influence her? A. They made her decide to leave the country. B. They helped her better understand her father. C. They destroyed her dream of being a teacher. D. They inspired her to take action to help others. 5. What is the main cause of the desertification of Tunisia’s farmland? A. Cold weather. B. Soil pollution. C. Low rainfall. D. Forest damage. 6. Why did Toumi start Acacias for All in Tunisia? A. To ensure access to primary education for children. B. To promote the protection of agricultural land. C. To create job opportunities for young people. D. To persuade the farmers not to use fertilizers. 7. Which of the following can best describe Toumi? A Determined and helpful. B. Considerate and calm. C. Wealthy and academic. D. Thankful and flexible. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲主人公Sarah Toumi在一次陪父亲回突尼斯老家激发了她要帮助当地人的热情，并由此创造了Acacias for AII项目，植树改善和保护当地的农田，坚持与沙漠化做斗争，为世界做出积极的影响。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。文章第一段讲到“Her desire to help others was awakened when she accompanied her Tunisian father to his hometown in the eastern part of Tunisia during vacations. (当她在度假期间陪突尼斯父亲去突尼斯东部的家乡时，她帮助他人的愿望被唤醒了)”可知，去突尼斯的旅行激励着她去帮助别人。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。文章第一段讲到“Due to a decrease in average rainfall and an increase in severe droughts (干旱), nearly 75% of Tunisia’s agricultural lands are currently at risk of desertification. (由于平均降雨量的减少和严重干旱的增加，突尼斯近75%的农田目前面临荒漠化的风险)”可知，平均降雨量的减少和干旱的增加是突尼斯农田沙漠化的主要原因。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。文章第三段讲到“In 2012, Toumi took a decisive step towards realizing her dream of fighting desertification. She moved to Tunisia and set up a program called Acacias for All, with the aim of putting her sustainable farming ideas into action (2012年，Toumi朝着实现自己的沙漠化梦想迈出了决定性的一步。她搬到突尼斯，建立了一个名为“全民Acacias”的项目，目的是将她的可持续农业理念付诸实践)”可知，建立该项目是为了将她的可持续农业理论付诸行动。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。文章第一段“Toumi was determined to stop the progression of the Sahara Desert.(图米决心阻止撒哈拉沙漠的扩张。)”和第三段讲到“In 2012, Toumi took a decisive step towards realizing her dream of fighting desertification. She moved to Tunisia and set up a program called Acacias for All, with the aim of putting her sustainable farming ideas into action.  (2012年，Toumi朝着实现自己的沙漠化梦想迈出了决定性的一步。她搬到了突尼斯，建立了一个名为“全民Acacias”的项目，目的是将她的可持续农业理念付诸实践)”中的“decisive step”以及Toumi推动项目帮助当地人与沙漠化作斗争可知，Toumi意志坚定并乐于助人。故选A。 C Do you ever get restless if you haven’t checked your phone for a few minutes? If so, you’re not alone. Studies reveal that people these days check their phones once every four minutes on average! Some of this usage may be related to work. However, much of it is because many apps — particularly social media apps — use “clever techniques” to keep us coming back for more. One of such techniques is to push notifications. You’re getting on with your work or something else when — ping! — a notification pops up on your screen, informing you that a friend has posted something new or commented on your post. It may seem like a small interruption, but it often is enough to break your concentration and make you go back to your phone again. Another method is to make a game of the in-app experience by setting up a competitive goal element. Some apps, for example, uses streaks (连续纪录), which count the number of days you have used the app. If you keep a streak going, you might get a medal or some other rewards. Therefore, keeping one’s streak alive becomes a major reason to return to the app again and again. Once you’ve opened an app, its goal is now to get you continue using it. Messaging apps use a simple but effective trick to keep you engaged even when you’re not writing anything. Have you ever noticed that in some apps, three dots (…) appear to let you know your friend is typing a reply? This trick is designed specifically to create your expectation or curiosity. You wonder what your friend is going to say. Well, you’ll have to keep waiting and see. While using social media apps is certainly fun, becoming addicted definitely isn’t. Now that you know some tricks used by these apps’ designers, you’ll be better equipped to reduce their influence and keep a healthier relationship with your phone. 8. What does the underlined word “reveal” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Encourage. B. Predict. C. Prevent. D. Show. 9. What is special about an app using streaks? A. Ongoing pings will inform you of new posts. B. Competitive games will greatly discourage you. C. Everyday use of the app might earn you a medal. D. Appearance of three dots might disturb your typing. 10. There are “clever techniques” mentioned in the passage. A. two B. three C. four D. five 11. What is the best title for the text? A. The Tricks That Keep You Glued to Your Phone. B. Can People Break Their Addition to Games? C. Could Technology Further Improve Phones? D. The Social Media Apps That Waste Your Time. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了我们常常查看手机是因为许多应用程序运用了消息推送通知等“巧妙的技术”，让我们离不开手机，同时提醒我们在知道了这些技术后，学会减少它们的影响，与我们的手机保持更健康的关系。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词的上文“Do you ever get restless if you haven’t checked your phone for a few minutes? If so, you’re not alone. (你有没有因为几分钟不看手机而感到不安？如果是这样，你并不孤单)”可知，作者先用问题的形式引出话题，表明很多人都会因为几分钟不看手机而感到不安，再结合画线词的下文“that people these days check their phones once every four minutes on average (现在的人平均每四分钟看一次手机)”可推知，此处作者用相关研究的结果来支持上文提到的现象，指的应该是研究“表明”这样的情况，画线词的意思应该与show“表明，显示”一致。故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Some apps, for example, uses streaks (连续纪录), which count the number of days you have used the app. If you keep a streak going, you might get a medal or some other rewards. (例如，一些应用程序使用连续纪录，计算你使用应用程序的天数。如果你连续使用，你可能会获得奖牌或其他奖励)”可知，使用连续记录的应用程序的特别之处是每天使用应用程序可能会为你赢得奖牌。故选C项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“One of such techniques is to push notifications. (其中一种技术就是推送通知)”、第三段中“Another method is to make a game of the in-app experience by setting up a competitive goal element. (另一种方法是通过设置竞争性目标元素来创造一款应用程序内部体验的游戏)”和第四段中“Messaging apps use a simple but effective trick to keep you engaged even when you’re not writing anything. (即时通讯软件使用了一个简单但有效的技巧，即使你没有写任何东西，也能让你保持参与)”可知，文章共提到了三种巧妙的技术。故选B项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“However, much of it is because many apps — particularly social media apps — use “clever techniques” to keep us coming back for more. (然而，这在很大程度上是因为许多应用程序——尤其是社交媒体应用程序——使用了“巧妙的技术”，让我们不断回头获得更多)”可知，文章主要介绍了我们常常查看手机的原因，这是因为许多应用程序运用了消息推送通知等“巧妙的技术”，让我们离不开手机，同时文章提醒我们在知道了这些技术后，学会减少它们的影响，与我们的手机保持更健康的关系。因此，A项“使你离不开手机的技巧”契合文章主旨，适合作为文章标题。故选A项。 D A new study reveals that trees can communicate and warn each other of danger. “For the first time, researchers have been able to visualize plant-to-plant communication,” said Masatsugu, senior author of the study. The idea of talking trees started to take root in the 1980s. Two scientists found that damaged trees began producing chemicals that made their leaves unappetizing and indigestible to discourage insects. The trees then sent chemical signals to one another through the air. Over the past four decades, scientists have observed this cell-to-cell communication in more than 30 plant species. Past research shows plants communicate with their surroundings by releasing chemicals known as volatile (易挥发的) organic compounds. One class of these compounds are released when a plant is injured: green leafy volatiles. These are released by, as the name suggests, pretty much every green plant with leaves, and are produced when a plant experiences physical damage. An example of these compounds is the smell released from fresh-cut grass. In the new study, Masatsugu and his colleagues manually damaged leaves and placed insects on tomato plants to trigger the release of various green leafy volatiles. After testing many of them, the team found it seemed to increase calcium ions (钙离子) inside cells. The calcium signaling is like a switch to turn on the defense responses from the plants. With this new understanding, researchers say plants could be immunized against threats and stressors before they even happen. For instance, exposing healthy plants to insect-ridden plants or the associated green leafy volatiles could boost their genetic defenses, so farmers use less pesticides. The revelation could also help make plants more resilient (有复原力的) during a drought, signaling the plants to conserve more water. 12. What does the new research find? A. Trees can inform other trees of potential threats. B. Trees can make themselves attractive. C. Trees will send signals first once damaged. D. Trees will work together to trick insects. 13. What can be learnt about green leafy volatiles? A. They defend insects. B. They kill insects. C. Some of them can be smelt. D. Some of them can be seen. 14. How was the study carried out by Masatsugu? A. By protecting trees from insects. B. By classifying green leafy volatiles. C. By increasing calcium ions inside cells. D. By causing the release of certain chemicals. 15. What aspect of the new study does the last paragraph focus on? A. Its target. B. Its process. C. Its application. D. Its background. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项新的研究发现——树木之间可以相互交流并警告彼此有危险。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“A new study reveals that trees can communicate and warn each other of danger.(一项新的研究表明，树木可以相互交流并发出危险警告)”可知，研究发现树木可以告知其他树木潜在的威胁。故选A项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“One class of these compounds are released when a plant is injured: green leafy volatiles. These are released by, as the name suggests, pretty much every green plant with leaves, and are produced when a plant experiences physical damage. An example of these compounds is the smell released from fresh-cut grass.(其中一类化合物是在植物受伤时释放出来的：绿叶挥发物。顾名思义，这些物质是由几乎每一种有叶子的绿色植物释放的，是在植物受到物理损伤时产生的。这些化合物的一个例子是新鲜割草释放出的气味)”可知，一些绿叶挥发物可以被闻到。故选C项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“In the new study, Masatsugu and his colleagues manually damaged leaves and placed insects on tomato plants to trigger the release of various green leafy volatiles. (在这项新的研究中，Masatsugu和他的同事手动损坏叶片，并将昆虫放在番茄植株上，以引发各种绿叶挥发物的释放)”可知，研究人员通过引发某些化学物质的释放来进行研究。故选D项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“With this new understanding, researchers say plants could be immunized against threats and stressors before they even happen. For instance, exposing healthy plants to insect-ridden plants or the associated green leafy volatiles could boost their genetic defenses, so farmers use less pesticides. The revelation could also help make plants more resilient during a drought, signaling the plants to conserve more water.(研究人员表示，有了这一新的认识，植物甚至可以在威胁和压力发生之前就对其进行免疫。例如，将健康的植物暴露在昆虫肆虐的植物或相关的绿叶挥发物中，可以增强它们的基因防御能力，因此农民使用更少的杀虫剂。这一发现也可能有助于植物更能适应干旱，向植物发出信号以储存更多的水)”可知，本段主要讲述了这个新发现的应用。故选C项。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Improve Vocabulary Fast Your vocabulary refers to the words in a language you are familiar with.

However, they should be forbidden to enter the campus for the following reasons. First of all, it is difficult to secure food safety for lack of a universal standard for ready-to-eat meals, which would raise concerns from both students and parents. Besides, they can’t provide enough nutrition which students need for their growth and development, because the processing method increases nutrition loss. As mentioned above, ready-made food is not the best choice for students, so I am strongly against the idea of it entering the campus. 【解析】 【导语】本篇开放性作文写作。要求考生以“预制菜应不应该进校园”为主题，写一篇辩论稿。 【详解】词汇积累 出现：emerge→appear 首先：first of all→to begin with 确保：secure→ensure 另外：besides→in addition 2. 句式拓展 同义句替换 原句：As people’s pace of life is getting faster and faster, ready-made meals begin to emerge on the market and are served on the dinner table. 拓展句：As people’s pace of life is getting faster and faster, ready-made meals, which have started to emerge on the market, are increasingly being served on the dinner table. 【点睛】[高分句型1]First of all, it is difficult to secure food safety for lack of a universal standard for ready-to-eat meals, which would raise concerns from both students and parents.(which引导的非限制性定语从句) [高分句型2]Besides, they can’t provide enough nutrition which students need for their growth and development, because the processing method increases nutrition loss.(which引导的定语从句和because引导原因状语从句) 第二节 读后续写（满分25分） 47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 At an early age, Bob was repeatedly told by his mother Markita, “Believe in yourself no matter what happens.” When Bob was 12, his mother traveled with him in a car. Slowly night fell. Bob was asleep in the front seat of the car. As Markita drove carefully down the winding dirt road, she turned onto a narrow bridge. As she did, the car hit a rock and ran off the road, and the right front wheel got stuck. Fearing the car would tip over, she attempted to drive it back onto the road by pressing hard on the gas pedal (油门) and turning the steering wheel (方向盘) to the left. But Bob’s foot got caught between his mother’s leg and the steering wheel and she lost control of the car. The car rolled over and hit a deep valley. Bob could hardly get his breath back. “What happened, Mama?” he asked. “Our wheels are pointing toward the sky.” Markita was blinded by blood. She was too painful to move and cry for help. “I’ll get you out, Mama,” said Bob, who had luckily escaped injury. He managed to get out of the car through the open window and tried to pull his mother out. But she couldn’t move. “Just let me sleep,” replied Markita, who seemed to be out of consciousness (意识). “No, Mama,” Bob continued. “You can’t sleep.” Bob reached her mother and tried to pull her out of the car, but failed. He then told her he'd climb up to the road and stop a car to get help. Fearing that no one would be able to see her little boy in the dark, Markita refused to let him go alone. Instead, Markita did her best to open the door. She moved inches at a time. The pain was so great that Markita wanted to give up, but Bob wouldn’t let her. 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。 To keep his mother moving, Bob repeated the words his mother told him. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ About an hour later, Bob and his mother finally reached the road._ __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】To keep his mother moving, Bob repeated the words his mother told him. “Believe in yourself. I know you can”. Bob kept talking to his mother. With time passing by, their effort paid off. When they were trying to step out of the valley, the sky was so bright and starry. Bob was able to see his mother’s face clearly. He broke into tears. Above the valley, there came the light and the sound of cars on the road. They held each other, walking slowly to the main road. About an hour later, Bob and his mother finally reached the road. There was a sign on the side of the road. They got to the sign and had a good rest. Meanwhile, Bob took off his clothes and waved his hands in the air. “Stop! Please stop!” the boy kept shouting. “We need help. Get my mama to a hospital.” Luckily, a driver saw him from the window and pulled up. He rushed them to the nearby hospital. Now, Markita has recovered from injuries. She said, “If it hadn’t been for Bob, I’d have died.” 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了在鲍勃很小的时候，他的母亲玛基塔就反复告诉他:“无论发生什么，都要相信自己。在鲍勃12岁时，他和妈妈玛基塔发生了车祸，车子掉到了一个深谷里。鲍勃没有受伤，但是他的妈妈痛得动弹不得，大声呼救。鲍勃决定爬上马路去寻求救援，由于担心没有人能在黑暗中看到她的小男孩，玛基塔拒绝让他一个人去。相反，玛基塔尽力打开了车门。她每次移动几英寸。太痛苦了，玛基塔想放弃，但鲍勃不让她放弃。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“为了让妈妈继续移动，鲍勃重复了妈妈告诉他的话。”可知，第一段可描写鲍勃和妈妈一起努力走出了山谷。在山谷上方，路上传来了灯光和汽车的声音。他们互相扶着，慢慢地向大路走去 ②由第二段首句内容“大约一个小时后，鲍勃和他的妈妈终于到了公路上”可知，第二段可描写鲍勃向司机求救，获救以及被送往医院。现在母亲康复以及对鲍勃的感激。 2.续写线索：努力走出了山谷——慢慢地向大路走去——求救——获救——送往医院——玛基塔现在康复了——感激 3.词汇激活 行为类 从……走出来：step out of /come out of 恢复：recover/pick up 死：die /pass away 搀扶：hold/ support sb. with one’s hand 情绪类 相信：trust/believe in/be confident of 【点睛】[高分句型1] If it hadn’t been for Bob, I’d have died.
