B Karla Tatiana Vasquez, a trained chef and food writer, was born in El Salvador, moved to Los Angeles as a baby, and grew up eating food from her homeland. She thought it would be easy to find recipes. “I went to the Internet, did some search but only found two books, which I thought immediately, ‘Wow, this is funny,’” Vasquez said. It was at the moment that Vasquez determined to do something to safeguard her culture. Her idea became SalviSoul, a platform (平台) launched in 2015 to preserve her traditional food culture through stories, cooking classes and recipes. And now, that mission has turned into The SalviSoul Cookbook: Salvadoran Recipes. Vasquez said that the book started coming together through her desire to interview the women in her family and learn their recipes. But when friends heard about her project, they were excited to share recipes and stories from their families. She started seeking stories and recipes from her community and got responses from around the world. The interviews she collected became The SalviSoul Cookbook, with 80 recipes from 25 women. “The way that I brought in the culture was through the women in my family and they fed me.” They also shared lessons on life and love. “So there was the food that built my physical form. And as I was at the table, these stories were feeding the part of my soul that longed to connect, that longed to belong.” She eventually secured a contract (合同) for The SalviSoul Cookbook from Ten Speed Press, an imprint of Penguin Random House. About the publication, Vasquez said, “It’s about making sure that what cost a lot to learn isn’t forgotten.” 4. What inspired Vasquez’s idea of SalviSoul? A. Lack of Salvadoran recipes. B. Appetite for the Internet culture. C. Desire to be a famous chef and writer. D. Interest in traditional and modern cooking. 5. How did women in Vasquez’s family offer help? A. They funded her cookbook to be published. B. They fed her to grow up with nutritious food. C. They taught her traditional cooking techniques. D. They gave her material and emotional supports. 6. Which of the following can best describe Vasquez? A. Creative and determined. B. Outgoing and generous. C Positive and confident. D. Friendly and thankful. 7. Who might be the target readers of The SalviSoul Cookbook? A. Female neighbors. B. Women publishers. C. Salvadoran food lovers. D. Experienced housewives. C Several new species of tropical (热带的) birds have been found on far islands in Indonesia. Researchers have discerned the Wakatobi sunbird, a new species that lives on the small Waka-tobi Islands, located in central Indonesia. They also studied olive-backed sunbirds and black sun-birds and found that some of the birds they examined actually belonged to some previously un-recognized species. The new Wakatobi sunbird looks similar to the olive-backed sunbird, but has darker feathers, shorter wings, and a higher-toned song. Zoologists believe that because it has such short wings, it never spread beyond the tiny islands. The olive-backed sunbird, however, can fly long distances, so it was able to live in other locations. “Specifically, we became interested in the Wakatobi sunbird because of the work of ErnstHartert, a German bird expert active at the beginning of the 20th century,” Fionn Marcaigh, one researcher, says. “He described the Wakatobi sunbird as a population with unique dark feathers, but he and the rest of the scientific community finally decided that it was only a subspecies of the widespread olive-backed sunbird. We were eager to use modern methods to put this to the test.” For their research, scientists used DNA, recordings of songs, and body measurement analysis to compare the sunbirds they studied. “We used a system called integrative taxonomy (综合分类学), which combines data on a number of aspects of the birds, including their songs, feathers, and body structures,” Marcaigh says. “We recorded their songs using digital recorders, measured live birds, set them free, and used computers to analyze the differences.” “I’m excited that we’ve added to the list of known species from this wonderful part of the world,” Marcaigh says. 8. What does the underlined word “discerned” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Imagined. B. Controlled. C. Overlooked. D. Recognized. 9. How does the Wakatobi sunbird differ from the olive-backed sunbird? A. It has colorful feathers. B. It flies shorter distances. C. It lives throughout Indonesia. D. It sings more beautiful songs. 10. Why did Marcaigh study the Wakatobi sunbird? A. To identify its classification. B. To analyze its genetic makeup. C. To support the study of Ernst Hartert. D. To investigate its habitat and behavior. 11. What about the research is presented at the end of the text? A. Its impact. B. Its prospect. C. Its background. D. Its imperfection. D Rote memorization is when we repeat a piece of information until we remember it. One great example of it is how we memorize the alphabet (字母表) when we are little. “Rote memorization can be a useful learning tool in some situations, but its effectiveness depends on the type of information being learned and how it is applied,” says Dr. Aldrich Chan, neuropsychologist and professor of Pepperdine University of the US. Rote memorization can be useful for test preparation, learning basic facts and information such as vocabulary words or math formulas, and when we are in the early stages of learning something new. Rote memorization has a place in our day to day lives, especially when we need to learn something new or in a quick fashion. It enables us to remember information in situations where doing so is the main thing asked of us, even if it doesn’t lead us to have a deep understanding of that information. However, rote memorization isn’t always the solution to every problem. Information memorized through rote learning is often preserved in the short term but may be forgotten relatively quickly if not actively used. Besides, it often does not promote a deep understanding of the material. Learners may memorize facts or information without truly comprehending their meaning or how they fit into a broader context. And rote memorization tends to focus on memorizing facts and procedures, which may discourage critical thinking or problem-solving skills. Both rote memorization and meaningful learning have their place. The most important thing to remember is that rote memorization cannot stand in as a replacement for actual learning. Meaningful learning promotes long-term memory and the ability to apply knowledge flexibly. 12. What is Dr. Aldrich Chan’s attitude towards rote memorization? A. Against. B. Doubtful. C. Objective. D. Approving. 13. Which of the following can be best achieved through rote memorization? A. Improving study effectiveness in all situations. B. Applying knowledge flexibly in our daily lives. C Obtaining a thorough comprehension of information. D. Memorizing information at the beginning stages of learning. 14. What is the purpose of Paragraph 3? A. To compare different types of memorization. B. To present the limitations of rote memorization. C. To prove the effectiveness of rote memorization. D. To discuss the advantages of meaningful learning. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Rote Memorization: A Useful Learning Tool B. Rote Memorizing: No Equal to Understanding C. Rote Memorization: Way of Meaningful Learning D. Rote Memorization: Alternative to Deep Learning 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。 In a 24-hour readathon (读书竞赛), you try to read as much as you possibly can in 24 hours without doing anything else, except for the necessities like eating, sleeping, and going to the bathroom. ____16____.

He was so desperate to leave there and enjoy the splendid world outside but his parents were concerned about his safety. The days were long and cold, and he spent many hours of silence in his tiny cottage thinking about what life would be like in a warm, sunny place. “I shall find a true friend far away from here,” Ari thought, and he began writing a letter. He described himself as a loner who had few visitors, yet he had a strong of curiosity. It was his hope to find true friendship with someone who understood his sadness. For days, Ari poured his soul and innermost thoughts into the letter. Then he rolled the paper, placed it into a bottle, and sealed (密封) it tightly. At high tide, Ari cast the bottle out into the sea and wished upon the brightest star that a true friend would find the letter. A year later, many cold nights after shaking his message into the sea, Ari received a letter in the mail. He had no idea who would be writing him, but with joy, he opened the envelope. Dear Ari, I found your simple but lovely letter. Imagine my surprise when your little bottle from so far away washed up on my shore. I, too, live on an island called Sardinia. My island is warm and filled with mountains, clear white beaches, and green waters. Now that you have found a friend far away, I do hope that you will write and tell me more about your life and people. Your new friend, Renata For three years, Ari and Renata exchanged letters.

She thought it would be easy to find recipes. “I went to the Internet, did some search but only found two books, which I thought immediately, ‘Wow, this is funny,’” Vasquez said. It was at the moment that Vasquez determined to do something to safeguard her culture.(Karla Tatiana Vasquez是一位训练有素的厨师和美食作家，出生于萨尔瓦多，婴儿时期搬到洛杉矶，从小吃着家乡的食物长大。她认为找到菜谱很容易。Vasquez说：“我上网搜索了一下，但只找到了两本书，我立刻想，‘哇，这很有趣。’”。正是在这一刻，Vasquez决心做点什么来保护她的文化)”以及第二段“Her idea became SalviSoul, a platform (平台) launched in 2015 to preserve her traditional food culture through stories, cooking classes and recipes.(她的想法变成了SalviSoul，这是一个于2015年推出的平台，旨在通过故事、烹饪课程和食谱来保护她的传统饮食文化)”可知，是缺少萨尔瓦多食谱的事实激发了Vasquez建立SalviSoul平台的想法。故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Vasquez said that the book started coming together through her desire to interview the women in her family and learn their recipes. But when friends heard about her project, they were excited to share recipes and stories from their families.(Vasquez说，这本书开始成型是通过她采访家里的女性并学习她们的食谱的渴望。但当朋友们听说她的项目时，她们很高兴能分享家人的食谱和故事)”以及第四段““The way that I brought in the culture was through the women in my family and they fed me.” They also shared lessons on life and love. “So there was the food that built my physical form. And as I was at the table, these stories were feeding the part of my soul that longed to connect, that longed to belong.”(“我是通过家里的女性把这种文化带进来的，她们养活了我。”她们还分享了关于生活和爱情的课程。“所以有食物建立了我的身体形态。当我坐在餐桌旁时，这些故事滋养了我灵魂中渴望联系、渴望归属的部分。”)”可知，Vasquez家里的女性不仅养活了Vasquez，而且她们分享的故事也滋养了的Vasquez的精神，即她们给了Vasquez物质和情感上的支持。故选D。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Her idea became SalviSoul, a platform (平台) launched in 2015 to preserve her traditional food culture through stories, cooking classes and recipes.(她的想法变成了SalviSoul，这是一个于2015年推出的平台，旨在通过故事、烹饪课程和食谱来保护她的传统饮食文化)”以及最后一段“She eventually secured a contract (合同) for The SalviSoul Cookbook from Ten Speed Press, an imprint of Penguin Random House.(她最终从企鹅兰登书屋旗下的十速出版社获得了The SalviSoul Cookbook的合同)”可知，Vasquez创立了SalviSoul平台，并且成功地将这一概念转化为一本包含家庭食谱和故事的烹饪书，这表明她是有创造力和有决心的。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Her idea became SalviSoul, a platform launched in 2015 to preserve her traditional food culture through stories, cooking classes and recipes. And now, that mission has turned into The SalviSoul Cookbook: Salvadoran Recipes.(她的想法变成了SalviSoul，这是一个于2015年推出的平台，旨在通过故事、烹饪课程和食谱来保护她的传统饮食文化。现在，这个任务已经变成了The SalviSoul Cookbook: Salvadoran Recipes)”可知，The SalviSoul Cookbook: Salvadoran Recipes旨在通过故事、烹饪课程和食谱保护Vasquez的传统饮食文化，由此推知，这本书的目标读者可能是萨尔瓦多的美食爱好者。故选C。 C Several new species of tropical (热带的) birds have been found on far islands in Indonesia. Researchers have discerned the Wakatobi sunbird, a new species that lives on the small Waka-tobi Islands, located in central Indonesia. They also studied olive-backed sunbirds and black sun-birds and found that some of the birds they examined actually belonged to some previously un-recognized species. The new Wakatobi sunbird looks similar to the olive-backed sunbird, but has darker feathers, shorter wings, and a higher-toned song. Zoologists believe that because it has such short wings, it never spread beyond the tiny islands. The olive-backed sunbird, however, can fly long distances, so it was able to live in other locations. “Specifically, we became interested in the Wakatobi sunbird because of the work of ErnstHartert, a German bird expert active at the beginning of the 20th century,” Fionn Marcaigh, one researcher, says. “He described the Wakatobi sunbird as a population with unique dark feathers, but he and the rest of the scientific community finally decided that it was only a subspecies of the widespread olive-backed sunbird. We were eager to use modern methods to put this to the test.” For their research, scientists used DNA, recordings of songs, and body measurement analysis to compare the sunbirds they studied. “We used a system called integrative taxonomy (综合分类学), which combines data on a number of aspects of the birds, including their songs, feathers, and body structures,” Marcaigh says. “We recorded their songs using digital recorders, measured live birds, set them free, and used computers to analyze the differences.” “I’m excited that we’ve added to the list of known species from this wonderful part of the world,” Marcaigh says. 8. What does the underlined word “discerned” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Imagined. B. Controlled. C. Overlooked. D. Recognized. 9. How does the Wakatobi sunbird differ from the olive-backed sunbird? A. It has colorful feathers. B. It flies shorter distances. C. It lives throughout Indonesia. D. It sings more beautiful songs. 10. Why did Marcaigh study the Wakatobi sunbird? A. To identify its classification. B. To analyze its genetic makeup. C. To support the study of Ernst Hartert. D. To investigate its habitat and behavior. 11. What about the research is presented at the end of the text? A. Its impact. B. Its prospect. C. Its background. D. Its imperfection. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了在印度尼西亚的偏远岛屿上发现了几种新的热带鸟类物种，特别是Wakatobi太阳鸟。研究人员通过采用现代技术确认Wakatobi太阳鸟是一个新的物种。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段“Several new species of tropical (热带的) birds have been found on far islands in Indonesia. Researchers have discerned the Wakatobi sunbird, a new species that lives on the small Waka-tobi Islands, located in central Indonesia.(在印度尼西亚的偏远岛屿上发现了几种新的热带鸟类。研究人员discerned Wakatobi太阳鸟，这是一种生活在印度尼西亚中部的小瓦卡托比群岛上的新物种)”可知，此处表示研究人员发现了几种新的热带鸟类，从中辨别出Wakatobi太阳鸟，划线单词表示“辨别出”，与Recognized意义相近。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The new Wakatobi sunbird looks similar to the olive-backed sunbird, but has darker feathers, shorter wings, and a higher-toned song. Zoologists believe that because it has such short wings, it never spread beyond the tiny islands.(新的Wakatobi太阳鸟看起来与黄腹花蜜鸟相似，但羽毛更深，翅膀更短，歌声更高。动物学家认为，因为它的翅膀很短，所以它从未扩散到小岛之外)”可知，与黄腹花蜜鸟相比，Wakatobi太阳鸟的飞行距离更短。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段““Specifically, we became interested in the Wakatobi sunbird because of the work of ErnstHartert, a German bird expert active at the beginning of the 20th century,” Fionn Marcaigh, one researcher, says. “He described the Wakatobi sunbird as a population with unique dark feathers, but he and the rest of the scientific community finally decided that it was only a subspecies of the widespread olive-backed sunbird. We were eager to use modern methods to put this to the test.”(一位研究人员Fionn Marcaigh说：“具体来说，我们之所以对Wakatobi太阳鸟感兴趣，是因为活跃在20世纪初的德国鸟类专家ErnstHartert的工作。”“他将Wakatobi太阳鸟描述为一个拥有独特深色羽毛的种群，但他和科学界的其他人最终决定，它只是广泛分布的黄腹花蜜鸟的一个亚种。我们渴望使用现代方法对其进行测试。”)”可知，Marcaigh研究Wakatobi太阳鸟，是为了确定Wakatobi太阳鸟的类别。故选A。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段““I’m excited that we’ve added to the list of known species from this wonderful part of the world,” Marcaigh says.(Marcaigh说：“我很高兴我们将世界上这片神奇地区的已知物种列入名单。”)”可知，文末介绍了研究结果产生的影响，将这片神奇地区的已知物种列入名单。故选A。 D Rote memorization is when we repeat a piece of information until we remember it. One great example of it is how we memorize the alphabet (字母表) when we are little. “Rote memorization can be a useful learning tool in some situations, but its effectiveness depends on the type of information being learned and how it is applied,” says Dr. Aldrich Chan, neuropsychologist and professor of Pepperdine University of the US. Rote memorization can be useful for test preparation, learning basic facts and information such as vocabulary words or math formulas, and when we are in the early stages of learning something new. Rote memorization has a place in our day to day lives, especially when we need to learn something new or in a quick fashion. It enables us to remember information in situations where doing so is the main thing asked of us, even if it doesn’t lead us to have a deep understanding of that information. However, rote memorization isn’t always the solution to every problem. Information memorized through rote learning is often preserved in the short term but may be forgotten relatively quickly if not actively used. Besides, it often does not promote a deep understanding of the material. Learners may memorize facts or information without truly comprehending their meaning or how they fit into a broader context. And rote memorization tends to focus on memorizing facts and procedures, which may discourage critical thinking or problem-solving skills. Both rote memorization and meaningful learning have their place. The most important thing to remember is that rote memorization cannot stand in as a replacement for actual learning. Meaningful learning promotes long-term memory and the ability to apply knowledge flexibly. 12. What is Dr. Aldrich Chan’s attitude towards rote memorization? A. Against. B. Doubtful. C. Objective. D. Approving. 13. Which of the following can be best achieved through rote memorization? A. Improving study effectiveness in all situations. B. Applying knowledge flexibly in our daily lives. C. Obtaining a thorough comprehension of information. D. Memorizing information at the beginning stages of learning. 14. What is the purpose of Paragraph 3? A. To compare different types of memorization. B. To present the limitations of rote memorization. C. To prove the effectiveness of rote memorization. D. To discuss the advantages of meaningful learning. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Rote Memorization: A Useful Learning Tool B. Rote Memorizing: No Equal to Understanding C. Rote Memorization: Way of Meaningful Learning D. Rote Memorization: Alternative to Deep Learning 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了机械记忆作为学习工具的利弊，强调其在基础信息学习中的效用，同时也指出其缺乏深度理解和灵活运用知识的能力，主张结合有意义学习以促进长期记忆和知识应用。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段““Rote memorization can be a useful learning tool in some situations, but its effectiveness depends on the type of information being learned and how it is applied,” says Dr. Aldrich Chan, neuropsychologist and professor of Pepperdine University of the US.(美国佩珀代因大学教授、神经心理学家Aldrich Chan博士表示：“在某些情况下，机械记忆可能是一种有用的学习工具，但其有效性取决于所学信息的类型和应用方式。”)”可知，Aldrich Chan博士认为机械记忆可能是一种有用的学习工具，但其有效性是有局限的，由此可知，Aldrich Chan博士对于机械记忆的态度是客观的。故选C。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Rote memorization can be useful for test preparation, learning basic facts and information such as vocabulary words or math formulas, and when we are in the early stages of learning something new. Rote memorization has a place in our day to day lives, especially when we need to learn something new or in a quick fashion. It enables us to remember information in situations where doing so is the main thing asked of us, even if it doesn’t lead us to have a deep understanding of that information.(机械记忆对备考、学习基本事实和信息（如词汇或数学公式）以及当我们处于学习新事物的早期阶段时都很有用。机械记忆在我们的日常生活中占有一席之地，尤其是当我们需要快速学习新东西时。它使我们能够在主要要求我们记住信息的情况下记住信息，即使它不能使我们对这些信息有深入的理解)”可知，机械记忆在学习新事物的早期阶段时很有用，即通过机械记忆，在学习的最初阶段记忆信息可以达到最佳效果。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“However, rote memorization isn’t always the solution to every problem. Information memorized through rote learning is often preserved in the short term but may be forgotten relatively quickly if not actively used. Besides, it often does not promote a deep understanding of the material. Learners may memorize facts or information without truly comprehending their meaning or how they fit into a broader context. And rote memorization tends to focus on memorizing facts and procedures, which may discourage critical thinking or problem-solving skills.(然而，机械记忆并不总是解决所有问题方法。通过机械记忆记住的信息通常会在短期内保存下来，但如果不积极使用，可能会相对较快地被遗忘。此外，它往往不能促进对材料的深入理解。学习者可能会在没有真正理解其含义或如何融入更广泛的环境的情况下记住事实或信息。机械记忆往往侧重于记住事实和程序，这可能会阻碍批判性思维或解决问题的技能)”可知，机械记忆具有局限性，本段的目的是介绍机械记忆的局限性。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段““Rote memorization can be a useful learning tool in some situations, but its effectiveness depends on the type of information being learned and how it is applied,” says Dr. Aldrich Chan, neuropsychologist and professor of Pepperdine University of the US.(美国佩珀代因大学教授、神经心理学家Aldrich Chan博士表示：“在某些情况下，机械记忆可能是一种有用的学习工具，但其有效性取决于所学信息的类型和应用方式。”)”以及文章内容可知，本文主要介绍了机械记忆作为学习工具的利弊，强调其在基础信息学习中的效用，同时也指出其缺乏深度理解和灵活运用知识的能力，主张结合有意义学习以促进长期记忆和知识应用，总体而言，机械记忆是一种有用的学习工具，所以“机械记忆：一种有用的学习工具”适合作为文章标题。故选A。 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。 In a 24-hour readathon (读书竞赛), you try to read as much as you possibly can in 24 hours without doing anything else, except for the necessities like eating, sleeping, and going to the bathroom. ____16____.

The village where they lived was a fishing village along the green, winding coastline, and Ari often wondered what lay beyond the horizon (地平线). He was so desperate to leave there and enjoy the splendid world outside but his parents were concerned about his safety. The days were long and cold, and he spent many hours of silence in his tiny cottage thinking about what life would be like in a warm, sunny place. “I shall find a true friend far away from here,” Ari thought, and he began writing a letter. He described himself as a loner who had few visitors, yet he had a strong of curiosity. It was his hope to find true friendship with someone who understood his sadness. For days, Ari poured his soul and innermost thoughts into the letter. Then he rolled the paper, placed it into a bottle, and sealed (密封) it tightly. At high tide, Ari cast the bottle out into the sea and wished upon the brightest star that a true friend would find the letter. A year later, many cold nights after shaking his message into the sea, Ari received a letter in the mail. He had no idea who would be writing him, but with joy, he opened the envelope. Dear Ari, I found your simple but lovely letter. Imagine my surprise when your little bottle from so far away washed up on my shore. I too, live on an island called Sardinia. My island is warm and filled with mountains, clear white beaches, and green waters. Now that you have found a friend far away, I do hope that you will write and tell me more about your life and people. Your new friend, Renata For three years, Ari and Renata exchanged letters. They shared secrets about their villages and wrote about their festivals, music and their favorite foods. They described their imagination of the outside world. Ari couldn't hide his eagerness to visit Sardinia any longer. 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。 Finally, Ari determined to win his parents’ support. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Without telling Renata Ari set out by ship to meet his best friend in person. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Finally, Ari determined to win his parents’ support. He sat down with them one evening, the fire crackling in the hearth as the wind howled outside. With a trembling heart, Ari unfolded his plans, speaking of his dreams and the friendship that had blossomed across the sea. He showed them the letters from Renata, the words filled with warmth and understanding. Ari’s parents, moved by his passion and the genuine connection he had made, slowly began to see the world beyond their shores through their son’s eyes. After a long silence, they nodded, granting him their blessing to embark on his journey. Without telling Renata, Ari set out by ship to meet his best friend in person. The sea was vast and the journey long, but his heart was filled with anticipation. As the ship sailed towards Sardinia, Ari could almost taste the warmth of the sun on his skin and feel the sand between his toes. Upon his arrival, he found the island even more beautiful than described in Renata’s letters. The vibrant colors, the laughter of the people, and the aroma of delicious food filled the air. With a mix of excitement and nervousness, he walked the familiar streets Renata had painted with her words, until finally, he stood before her door. The moment they met, it was as if no distance had ever separated them, and their friendship, once confined to letters, came to life in a warm embrace. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，以Ari与Renata之间书信往来为线索，讲述了一段跨越海洋的友情故事。通过描述Ari对外部世界的渴望、他如何通过漂流瓶找到远方的朋友Renata，以及两人之间深厚的书信友谊，文章展现了人与人之间的情感联系和心灵的共鸣。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“最终，Ari决定赢得父母的支持。”可知，第一段可描写Ari如何赢得父母的支持。 ②由第二段首句内容“没有告诉Renata，Ari坐船出发去亲自见他最好的朋友。”可知，第二段可描写Ari去见好友过程中，看到的好友所在地的环境及两人的情感。 2.续写线索：请求父母支持——父母同意——踏上旅途——到达目的地环境描写——两人情绪描写——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①坐下：sit down / take a seat / be seated ②展开：unfold / reveal / disclose ③展示：show / display / present 情绪类 ①颤抖的：trembling / shaking / quivering ②兴奋：excitement / thrill / exhilaration 【点睛】[高分句型1].
