While teaching a PE class, she was hit in the head with a baseball. The impact was so great it left her with a brain injury and 70 percent vision loss, permanently blinding her in one eye. She spent 26 months in seven different hospitals, at times wishing it would just all end. Desperately, Wheatley set out to find comfort and healing in nature. She travelled to Nepal where a friend convinced her to run in the Annapurna 100 with him. The power from that race changed her life and eventually had her looking up at the tops of the mountains. Project Vision 8000 was born. And she began her mission to stand on top of the world’s 14 highest mountains, towering 8, 000 metres above sea level, to show herself and others the power in choice and possibility. Colours, and touch help guide her on the mountain and she has never once felt too tired to carry on.“The only thing constant is change, so when the weather gets really bad or a storm is coming in,I know it is going to pass.”So far, she’s had few problems standing among giants, but she admits she continues to struggle with overcoming: the “mountains of her mind”. Having already stared death in the face, Wheatley has great respect for the mountains and the mission she is on. But she’s not seared. The experience almost claimed her life, but it is now the driving force and fuel behind her success.At every icy peak, she smiles and takes a quick video with a breathless “so very thankful” whispered into the thin air. 24. What happened to Wheatley according to paragraph 1? A. She came last in a race. B. She suffered head injury. C. She lost her sight completely. D. She was attacked in a class. 25. What drove Wheatley to launch Project Vision 8000? A. Her exploration of nature. B. Her friend’s timely suggestions. C. Her strong love for sports. D. Her participation in the Annapurna 100. 26. What can we learn about Wheatley from the last paragraph? A. Her attitude toward adversity was reshaped. B. She was used to poor weather conditions. C. She ignored the mountains of her mind. D. Her nature helped her overcome fear. 27. What could be the best title for the text? A. Every peak is within reach. B. Lose sight to gain vision. C. Action speaks louder than words. D. Nature will work its course. C Will artificial intelligence (AI) replace my job? This is a question that many people think about these days. At present, the application of AI robotics in professional fields, as well as ChatGPT’s abilities to write essays, solve complex problems and more, have heightened moral concerns. Some people see AI as the ultimate cure for society’s most fundamental problems, while others fear that AI will overtake human intelligence. These two views are based on the assumption that AI is better and smarter than humanity and may ultimately replace human decision-making. But given the fact that technology is the product of human civilization, the challenge from AI is something we have created for ourselves as we keep pushing our own boundaries. In other words, AI’s progress, functions and future direction are all determined by the human brain. Before AI becomes a threat to humanity, the international community should reach an agreement on the role it is to play. More importantly, related laws and regulations must ensure that AI will benefit society and prevent it from threatening human life. Robots, for example, are believed to develop emotional intelligence sometime, which enables them to recognize, understand and express emotions in a way that is similar to humans, but we must avoid AI copying human emotions. Without legal restrictions, AI may become a social disaster. The AI-driven new industrial revolution is irreversible. This, like previous ones, which introduced changes that had been unimaginable before, will certainly affect human employment. But it always turned out humanity was able to adapt to each industrial revolution and create new forms of employment. Therefore, it’s unnecessary to worry AI will replace our jobs. While technology advances at a rapid pace, what we need to do is to welcome the AI era rather than block its unfolding for fear of the unknown. 28. Why are some people concerned about AI? A. It may outsmart humans. B. It has led to social problems. C. It has been applied widely. D. It is the product of humanity. 29. How can we prevent AI’s potential threat? A. By stirring emotions. B. By blocking functions. C. By setting restrictions. D. By changing regulations. 30. What does the underlined word “irreversible” in the last paragraph mean? A. Undesirable. B. Unavoidable. C. Unpredictable. D. Unbelievable. 31. What does the writer suggest readers do with the coming of the AI era? A. Accept it passively. B. Deal with it positively. C. Respond to it randomly. D. Defend it unconditionally. D The natural world provides humans with essential services. For instance, forests channel water into rivers that irrigate crops while their roots prevent landslides. Over decades, therefore, governments have made promises about preserving the world’s biodiversity. However, those promises have been broken many times, which has caused the depressing destruction of natural environments. One step towards avoiding yet more disappointment is to emphasize the close link between preserving biodiversity and the widely held goal of reaching net-zero carbon emissions. Unfortunately, less known is the link between them. Given that biodiversity has an important role in meeting these carbon-reduction goals, you might think it would feature highly in the net- emissions plans. Not so. For example, faced with tighter regulation of emissions, many companies are now channeling more time and cash to their firms’ carbon footprints reduction and energy transition, yet the plans have too little to say about biodiversity. That needs to change. Sale guarding biodiversity is an efficient way to control carbon emissions. Companies and investment firms should pay more attention to the opportunities from preserving ecosystems. By investing in biodiversity—directing capital to projects that repair an ecosystem—companies can offset (抵消) their emissions. By some estimates, projects to manage carbon-rich wetlands and to reforest cleared and could provide more than one-third of the emissions reductions that are needed to prevent more than 2°C of global warming. Key to managing more capital is better measurement so that the link between investment in natural projects, biodiversity and carbon is made clear. Today some so-called carbon-offset projects that involve firms paying money to are questionable and not supported by evidence. Better guidelines and practice can help and so can new technology. Drones and satellites can improve the measurement of biodiversity and accounting systems can measure how spending on biodiversity compares with pouring cash into other kinds of carbon management. 32. What do we know about biodiversity? A. Its importance is undervalued. B. Its link with carbon emissions is clear. C. It is the source of carbon dioxide. D. I gets promised benefits from governments. 33. Why is “many companies” mentioned in paragraph 3? A. To clarify a rule. B. To make a conclusion. C. To explain a plan. D. To support an opinion. 34. What is the benefit of safeguarding biodiversity? A. Rebuilding wetlands. B. Redirecting capital. C. Cutting carbon emissions. D. Transforming energy. 35. What message does the writer convey in the text? A. The natural world deserves more investment. B. The key to managing capital is new regulations. C. It is hard to achieve net-zero carbon emissions. D. It is worthwhile spending money on clean energy. 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Be More Interesting No one is boring and no one needs to be perfect. But maybe you feel that you are boring and need to be more interesting. ___36___ If you’re looking to be more interesting, then you’ve come to the right place. Loosen up and be natural. One reason why many people fail to become interesting people is that they worry too much over the small things and don’t come across as natural. Their effort backfires (产生反作用) on them, because they are just trying too hard. ___37___ Live a life one day at a time. Be positive and optimistic. Interesting people are happy people.

Be available to the world and look for excitement instead of waiting for it to find you. Celebrate flexibility and a “just go with it” attitude. Often times people aren’t interesting because they are reserved. ___39___ Of course, to some extent, this is true, but you can also take this too far. By holding back too much, you’re limiting your potential and in the process becoming less interesting. The more reserved you get, the more static(停滞的) your life. ___40___ Being interesting means doing things you’ve never done before and being willing to share those experiences with other people. People who are boring and dull normally possess a very small comfort zone. So try to constantly expand your comfort zone and dare yourself to try new things; this is the quickest path to becoming more interesting. A Expand your comfort zone. B. Try to stay relaxed and flexible. C. A good laugh could be the best medicine. D. Being interesting also involves high intelligence. E. Many people feel they need to hold back to protect themselves.

You are overweight. Have you ever heard about Body Mass Index (指数), BMI? Well, I’ve weighed you and measured your height and you have a BMI of 28. That is obese (肥胖的),” said the doctor. I knew I was a little bit overweight but I didn’t think it was that bad. He added that my name means healthy in Chinese and he thought it is time that I should become healthy. There is a direct link between my health and sport. So he asked me, “How much sport do you do every week?” I told him that I go for a walk every weekend. Then he replied, “Hmm, that’s not a lot. Sport and health go together. They affect your mental, physical and emotional health. For example, sport can improve your mental health, allowing your brain to think better and focus. It will help you to learn more easily. Is that clear, Jian?” “I think so. I know it would be good to be able to concentrate better at school.” I said. The doctor explained to me that from a physical point of view, sport makes us tired so helps us to sleep better. At the same time, sport bums off the calories that we have consumed. It builds muscle and improves our circulation. Sport helps to control our cholesterol count (胆固醇指标) and this is important to stop us having a heart attack. Additionally, it also keeps our blood pressure normal and strengthens our bones. Para 1: The doctor’s words left me lost in thought. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Para 2: “Exercising alone is hard. Why not: try some team sports?” the doctor suggested. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$这是2023至2024学年福州市高三第一次质量监测英语科听力部分，该部分分为第一第二两节。注意，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。请看听力部分第一节，第一节听下面5段对话，每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3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。例如现在你有5秒钟的时间看试卷上的例题。你将听到以下内容。excuse me, can you tell me how much the t is?

The museum isn't far. It'll only take us about twenty minutes to get there. There will be several events during the day, and you'll have the chance to walk around the museum for at least fifty minutes.

But on this visit we are. You'll all work in groups, and each group will be given pots to pick up and look at and think about what they were used for.

The film will center on Barbie setting off for the human world to find true happiness after being cast away from “Barbie land” for being a less-than-perfect doll. She teams up with Ken, the long-standing male doll in the Barbie doll world. Born to Fly The movie follows a group of air force pilots testing the newest generation of China’s flying technology. They test the new planes to their limits, facing the many risks involved in experimental technology. The J-20 fighter jet has been a superstar since it was first seen flying in 2016. Born to Fly provides everyone with a close view of the J-20. This is the first movie in history to centre around a real J-20 aircraft. As the movie follows the test pilot’s view, the audience is given a look at this national treasure from all angles The Green Planet In many people’s eyes, plants are quiet. They can’t talk. They can’t walk. And they can’t think like us. Or can they? A new BBC documentary series, The Green Planet, gives us a new understanding of plants. It uncovers the wonderful and dramatic ways that plants behave. “The Green Planet reveals the secret lives of plants in the same way The Blue Planet opened our eyes to the oceans,” editor Elle Hunt wrote. 21.

On the weekends she competed in marathons around Europe.But life threw her a near deadly blow. While teaching a PE class, she was hit in the head with a baseball. The impact was so great it left her with a brain injury and 70 percent vision loss, permanently blinding her in one eye. She spent 26 months in seven different hospitals, at times wishing it would just all end. Desperately, Wheatley set out to find comfort and healing in nature. She travelled to Nepal where a friend convinced her to run in the Annapurna 100 with him. The power from that race changed her life and eventually had her looking up at the tops of the mountains. Project Vision 8000 was born. And she began her mission to stand on top of the world’s 14 highest mountains, towering 8, 000 metres above sea level, to show herself and others the power in choice and possibility. Colours, and touch help guide her on the mountain and she has never once felt too tired to carry on.“The only thing constant is change, so when the weather gets really bad or a storm is coming in,I know it is going to pass.”So far, she’s had few problems standing among giants, but she admits she continues to struggle with overcoming: the “mountains of her mind”. Having already stared death in the face, Wheatley has great respect for the mountains and the mission she is on. But she’s not seared. The experience almost claimed her life, but it is now the driving force and fuel behind her success.At every icy peak, she smiles and takes a quick video with a breathless “so very thankful” whispered into the thin air. 24. What happened to Wheatley according to paragraph 1? A. She came last in a race. B. She suffered head injury. C. She lost her sight completely. D. She was attacked in a class. 25. What drove Wheatley to launch Project Vision 8000? A. Her exploration of nature. B. Her friend’s timely suggestions. C. Her strong love for sports. D. Her participation in the Annapurna 100. 26. What can we learn about Wheatley from the last paragraph? A. Her attitude toward adversity was reshaped. B. She was used to poor weather conditions. C. She ignored the mountains of her mind. D. Her nature helped her overcome fear. 27. What could be the best title for the text? A. Every peak is within reach. B. Lose sight to gain vision. C. Action speaks louder than words. D. Nature will work its course. 【答案】24 B 25. D 26. A 27. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。这篇短文主要讲述了Jill Wheatley脑部受损并丧失了70%的视力，永久性失明一只眼睛。她决定通过登山来寻找安慰和康复。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第一段“Jill Wheatley was a PE teacher in Germany.

This is a question that many people think about these days. At present, the application of AI robotics in professional fields, as well as ChatGPT’s abilities to write essays, solve complex problems and more, have heightened moral concerns. Some people see AI as the ultimate cure for society’s most fundamental problems, while others fear that AI will overtake human intelligence. These two views are based on the assumption that AI is better and smarter than humanity and may ultimately replace human decision-making. But given the fact that technology is the product of human civilization, the challenge from AI is something we have created for ourselves as we keep pushing our own boundaries. In other words, AI’s progress, functions and future direction are all determined by the human brain. Before AI becomes a threat to humanity, the international community should reach an agreement on the role it is to play. More importantly, related laws and regulations must ensure that AI will benefit society and prevent it from threatening human life. Robots, for example, are believed to develop emotional intelligence sometime, which enables them to recognize, understand and express emotions in a way that is similar to humans, but we must avoid AI copying human emotions. Without legal restrictions, AI may become a social disaster. The AI-driven new industrial revolution is irreversible. This, like previous ones, which introduced changes that had been unimaginable before, will certainly affect human employment. But it always turned out humanity was able to adapt to each industrial revolution and create new forms of employment. Therefore, it’s unnecessary to worry AI will replace our jobs. While technology advances at a rapid pace, what we need to do is to welcome the AI era rather than block its unfolding for fear of the unknown. 28. Why are some people concerned about AI? A. It may outsmart humans. B. It has led to social problems. C. It has been applied widely. D. It is the product of humanity. 29. How can we prevent AI’s potential threat? A. By stirring emotions. B. By blocking functions. C. By setting restrictions. D. By changing regulations. 30. What does the underlined word “irreversible” in the last paragraph mean? A. Undesirable. B. Unavoidable. C. Unpredictable. D. Unbelievable. 31. What does the writer suggest readers do with the coming of the AI era? A. Accept it passively. B. Deal with it positively. C. Respond to it randomly. D. Defend it unconditionally. 【答案】28. A 29. C 30. B 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。本文讨论了人工智能在人类社会中的角色和挑战。虽然一些人担心人工智能可能会取代人类的工作，但作者认为，人类创造了AI，并且在AI的进展、功能和未来方向上拥有决定性的作用。同时，作者也强调了适应新工业革命的必要性，相信人类可以适应新形势，创造新的就业形式。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Some people see AI as the ultimate cure for society’s most fundamental problems, while others fear that AI will overtake human intelligence. These two views are based on the assumption that AI is better and smarter than humanity and may ultimately replace human decision-making.(一些人认为人工智能是解决社会最根本问题的终极良方，而另一些人则担心人工智能将超越人类的智慧。这两种观点都是基于人工智能比人类更好、更聪明，最终可能取代人类决策的假设)”可知，一些人担心人工智能将超越人类的智慧，这是基于他们认为人工智能比人类更好、更聪明，最终可能取代人类决策的假设。故选A。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“More importantly, related laws and regulations must ensure that AI will benefit society and prevent it from threatening human life.(更重要的是，相关法律法规必须确保人工智能造福社会，防止其威胁人类生命)”可知，我们可以通过相关法律法规确保人工智能造福社会，防止其威胁人类生命。故选C。 【30题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线词后面的内容“This, like previous ones, which introduced changes that had been unimaginable before, will certainly affect human employment.(这就像以前一样，带来了以前无法想象的变化，肯定会影响到人类的就业)”可知，人工智能驱动的新工业革命就像以前一样会带来无法想象的变化，一定会影响到人类的就业，因此人工智能驱动的新工业革命是不可避免的。故划线词与B选项“Unavoidable(不可避免的)”为同义词。故选B。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Therefore, it’s unnecessary to worry AI will replace our jobs. While technology advances at a rapid pace, what we need to do is to welcome the AI era rather than block its unfolding for fear of the unknown.(因此，不必担心人工智能会取代我们的工作。虽然技术正在快速发展，但我们需要做的是欢迎人工智能时代的到来，而不是因为害怕未知而阻止它的发展)”可知，作者建议对于未来的人工智能时代的到来，不要因为害怕而去阻止它，而是应该欢迎人工智能时代的到来，即积极地对待它。故选B。 D The natural world provides humans with essential services. For instance, forests channel water into rivers that irrigate crops while their roots prevent landslides. Over decades, therefore, governments have made promises about preserving the world’s biodiversity. However, those promises have been broken many times, which has caused the depressing destruction of natural environments. One step towards avoiding yet more disappointment is to emphasize the close link between preserving biodiversity and the widely held goal of reaching net-zero carbon emissions. Unfortunately, less known is the link between them. Given that biodiversity has an important role in meeting these carbon-reduction goals, you might think it would feature highly in the net- emissions plans. Not so. For example, faced with tighter regulation of emissions, many companies are now channeling more time and cash to their firms’ carbon footprints reduction and energy transition, yet the plans have too little to say about biodiversity. That needs to change. Sale guarding biodiversity is an efficient way to control carbon emissions. Companies and investment firms should pay more attention to the opportunities from preserving ecosystems. By investing in biodiversity—directing capital to projects that repair an ecosystem—companies can offset (抵消) their emissions. By some estimates, projects to manage carbon-rich wetlands and to reforest cleared and could provide more than one-third of the emissions reductions that are needed to prevent more than 2°C of global warming. Key to managing more capital is better measurement so that the link between investment in natural projects, biodiversity and carbon is made clear. Today some so-called carbon-offset projects that involve firms paying money to are questionable and not supported by evidence. Better guidelines and practice can help and so can new technology. Drones and satellites can improve the measurement of biodiversity and accounting systems can measure how spending on biodiversity compares with pouring cash into other kinds of carbon management. 32. What do we know about biodiversity? A. Its importance is undervalued. B. Its link with carbon emissions is clear. C. It is the source of carbon dioxide. D. I gets promised benefits from governments. 33. Why is “many companies” mentioned in paragraph 3? A. To clarify a rule. B. To make a conclusion. C. To explain a plan. D. To support an opinion. 34. What is the benefit of safeguarding biodiversity? A. Rebuilding wetlands. B. Redirecting capital. C. Cutting carbon emissions. D. Transforming energy. 35. What message does the writer convey in the text? A. The natural world deserves more investment. B. The key to managing capital is new regulations. C. It is hard to achieve net-zero carbon emissions. D. It is worthwhile spending money on clean energy. 【答案】32. A 33. D 34. C 35. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章强调了生物多样性的重要性，呼吁人们对自然界进行投资。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“One step towards avoiding yet more disappointment is to emphasize the close link between preserving biodiversity and the widely held goal of reaching net-zero carbon emissions. Unfortunately, less known is the link between them. (避免更多失望的一个步骤是强调保护生物多样性与实现净零碳排放的广泛目标之间的密切联系。不幸的是，它们之间的联系鲜为人知。)”以及第三段中“Given that biodiversity has an important role in meeting these carbon-reduction goals, you might think it would feature highly in the net- emissions plans. Not so. (鉴于生物多样性在实现这些碳减排目标方面发挥着重要作用，你可能会认为它将在净排放计划中占据重要地位。不是这样的。)”可知，生物多样性的重要性被低估了。故选A项。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Given that biodiversity has an important role in meeting these carbon-reduction goals, you might think it would feature highly in the net- emissions plans. Not so. For example, faced with tighter regulation of emissions, many companies are now channeling more time and cash to their firms’ carbon footprints reduction and energy transition, yet the plans have too little to say about biodiversity. (鉴于生物多样性在实现这些碳减排目标方面发挥着重要作用，你可能会认为它将在净排放计划中占据重要地位。不是这样的。例如，面对更严格的排放监管，许多公司现在将更多的时间和资金投入到公司的碳足迹减少和能源转型中，但这些计划对生物多样性的提及太少。)”可知，本段提到了“许多公司”是为了支持一种观点，生物多样性没有被重视起来。故选D项。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Sale guarding biodiversity is an efficient way to control carbon emissions.

But maybe you feel that you are boring and need to be more interesting. ___36___ If you’re looking to be more interesting, then you’ve come to the right place. Loosen up and be natural. One reason why many people fail to become interesting people is that they worry too much over the small things and don’t come across as natural. Their effort backfires (产生反作用) on them, because they are just trying too hard. ___37___ Live a life one day at a time. Be positive and optimistic. Interesting people are happy people. This is one of the reasons why we find them so interesting; whether we admit it or not, we want to know how and why happy people are so happy. ___38___ Build an open personality. Be available to the world and look for excitement instead of waiting for it to find you. Celebrate flexibility and a “just go with it” attitude. Often times people aren’t interesting because they are reserved. ___39___ Of course, to some extent, this is true, but you can also take this too far. By holding back too much, you’re limiting your potential and in the process becoming less interesting. The more reserved you get, the more static(停滞的) your life. ___40___ Being interesting means doing things you’ve never done before and being willing to share those experiences with other people. People who are boring and dull normally possess a very small comfort zone. So try to constantly expand your comfort zone and dare yourself to try new things; this is the quickest path to becoming more interesting. A. Expand your comfort zone. B. Try to stay relaxed and flexible. C. A good laugh could be the best medicine. D. Being interesting also involves high intelligence. E. Many people feel they need to hold back to protect themselves. F. Moreover, no one really wants to be around a negative, unhappy person. G. Being an interesting person is something that can be learned and practiced. 【答案】36. G 37. B 38. F 39. E 40.

You are overweight. Have you ever heard about Body Mass Index (指数), BMI? Well, I’ve weighed you and measured your height and you have a BMI of 28. That is obese (肥胖的),” said the doctor. I knew I was a little bit overweight but I didn’t think it was that bad. He added that my name means healthy in Chinese and he thought it is time that I should become healthy. There is a direct link between my health and sport. So he asked me, “How much sport do you do every week?” I told him that I go for a walk every weekend. Then he replied, “Hmm, that’s not a lot. Sport and health go together. They affect your mental, physical and emotional health. For example, sport can improve your mental health, allowing your brain to think better and focus. It will help you to learn more easily. Is that clear, Jian?” “I think so. I know it would be good to be able to concentrate better at school.” I said. The doctor explained to me that from a physical point of view, sport makes us tired so helps us to sleep better. At the same time, sport bums off the calories that we have consumed. It builds muscle and improves our circulation. Sport helps to control our cholesterol count (胆固醇指标) and this is important to stop us having a heart attack. Additionally, it also keeps our blood pressure normal and strengthens our bones. Para 1: The doctor’s words left me lost in thought. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Para 2: “Exercising alone is hard. Why not: try some team sports?” the doctor suggested. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Para 1: The doctor’s words left me lost in thought. I realized that I needed to take my health more seriously and make some changes to my lifestyle. I started to look into different sports and exercises that I could do to improve my health. I also began to pay more attention to my diet, cutting out unhealthy foods and replacing them with healthier alternatives. I knew that it wouldn't be easy, but I was determined to make a change. Para 2: “Exercising alone is hard. Why not: try some team sports?” the doctor suggested. I thought about it for a moment and realized that he was right. I had always been hesitant to join a sports team, but I decided to give it a try. I joined a local soccer team and was surprised at how much I enjoyed it. Not only was getting the exercise that I needed, but I was also making new friends and having fun in the process. I started to look forward to our weekly practices and games, and I could feel myself getting stronger and healthier with each passing week. Thanks to my doctor's advice, I had found a new way to improve my health and my life. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者因为超重，身体健康出现了问题。在听从了医生的建议后，作者开始锻炼，改变自己的饮食，最终结交了新朋友，并在这个过程中获得了乐趣。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“医生的话使我陷入了沉思”可知，第一段可描写作者开始改变自己的生活方式。 ②由第二段首句内容“‘独自锻炼很难。为什么不试试团队运动呢？’医生建议道”可知，第二段可描写作者从事团队运动，得到了乐趣。 2.续写线索：反思医生的话——开始做出改变——下定决心——参与团队运动——获得乐趣——作者感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①意识到：realize/be aware ②代替：replace/take place of ③过得愉快：have fun/enjoy oneself 情绪类 ①犹豫：hesitant/ tentative ②惊讶：surprised/astonished 【点睛】[高分句型1] I realized that I needed to take my health more seriously and make some changes to my lifestyle.
