B The “Got Talent” crew is one of the pioneers in finding and publicizing music talent and has been giving the world some of its most favorite artists for almost two decades. In 2023, “Britain’s Got Talent” (BGT) uncovered a musical genius named Malakai Bayoh who impressed the audience with perfect high-note singing. The London-based 13-year-old boy appeared for the show’s audition (海选) in April, 2023 and was accompanied by his mom and sister. “My big dream is to be an opera singer. I started singing at 7,” said Malakai to the BGT team. He then added jokingly, “My mom made me join the choir because she’s very bossy.” The teenager mentioned she was his biggest fan. Malakai’s mom was worried as he was about to perform and said, “It scares me because, on his first show, somebody heckled (对……起哄) him. It was sad to see someone boo a child on stage because it might destroy his confidence completely.” Contrary to his mom’s fear, Malakai set the stage on fire singing a beautiful song and the entire crowd was impressed by his amazing voice. As he ended his song, the audience and the judges gave him a big round of applause. The performance won him Simon Cowell’s Golden Buzzer, sending him straight to the semi-finals of the show. The other judges called Malakai’s performance “perfect” and “heavenly”. His angelic voice blew the audience away and the judges thanked the teen for coming to the show. Malakai went on to become one of the finalists of the show and signed a record deal with Universal Music. Malakai’ s audition at the BGT went viral on social media, “I’m a trained singer, and a music teacher by profession, and sang this song as a young performer myself. I can say with absolute certainty this is the best I’ve ever heard this song sung, with proper technique and proper breathing. This boy is a gifted singer,” @mayacorinne878 posted. 4. What made Malakai’s mom feel worried? A. The judge’s expression. B. Her son’s performance on stage. C. A bad experience. D. Her son’s difficulty in singing in public. 5. What does the phrase “set the stage on fire” in paragraph 3 imply about Malakai’s performance? A. He accidentally caused a literal fire during his performance. B. His performance was extremely passionate and energetic. C. His performance received the lowest rating possible. D. He refused to perform unless certain conditions were met. 6. What can be inferred about Malakai’s talent? A. He has average talent but is well-received due to his age. B. He has exceptional talent that is recognized by both professionals and the public. C. He has talent, but his performance was not enough to send him to the semi-finals. D. He lacks talent, but his story touched the hearts of the audience. 7. What is the text mainly about? A. The rise of a young opera singer. B. The impact of social media on music talent. C. The history of “Got Talent” shows. D. The challenges faced by young performers. C It’s no secret that sleep is important to your overall health, but a lack of sleep could have great effects on your heart, a new study shows. The researchers said people with insomnia(失眠症)are more likely to have a heart attack. Insomnia is the most common sleep disorder in the US, the researchers wrote in their report, noting that 10% to 15% of people in the US struggle with it. The meta-analysis of previously published research suggests that the potential association between insomnia and heart attack risk is strongest in women. Dr. Martha Gulati, director of prevention at the Cedars-Sinai Smidt Heart Institute, said that most of her patients are women and that insomnia is a noted risk factor for women who have had any form of ischemic heart disease. “We see it probably in 1 in 10 patients in the United States,” said Gulati, who was not involved in the new research. “It is my impression that almost everyone experiences insomnia at some point in their life. The estimate is that 1 in 2 adults experience it at some point in their life, maybe in the short term because of stressful moments.” For their analysis, the researchers defined insomnia as a sleep disorder with three main symptoms(症状): Difficulty falling asleep, difficulty staying asleep and waking early and being unable to fall back asleep. The study also found an association between increased heart attack risk and how long a participant slept each night. Those who slept five hours or less had the highest association with heart attack risk and were 1.56 times more likely to have a heart attack than people who slept seven or eight hours. Longer sleep duration wasn’t always more protective. The study found that people who slept six hours a night had a lower risk of a heart attack than those who slept nine hours or more. “A lot of studies have pointed somewhere between seven and eight hours of sleep being the magic number for us,” another researcher said. “There is obviously variability for everyone, but too much sleep is rarely the issue.” 8. What’s the function of the first paragraph? A To list a fact. B. To warn the readers. C. To introduce the topic. D. To draw the readers’ interest. 9. What can we infer from Gulati words? A. Insomnia is unavoidable in the short term. B. Insomnia is a common phenomenon in life. C. Heart attack often happens during insomnia. D. Women are less experienced in dealing with insomnia. 10. What inspiration can we get according to the sleeping time? A. Put quality before quantity. B. Too much is as bad as too little. C. Bite off more than one can chew. D. Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. 11. What’s the author’s attitude to the relationship between insomnia and heart attack? A. Pessimistic. B. Indifferent. C. Objective. D. Positive. D Ever wonder how this season’s celebrations affect the environment? Guest blogger Krista Fairles takes an amusing look at this very topic. The holidays are a wonderful, cheerful time when most people wait for Santa to bring them presents. But I’m not like most people. I spend my time wondering just what the environmental impacts of Santa Claus and his reindeer are, and more importantly, how I can calculate those impacts. Lately I’ve been particularly curious as to whether Santa’s old sled is a clean green flying machine, or if he should be replacing his 8 reindeer with an environmentally-friendly car. I should mention that, surprisingly, I was unable to find statistics specific to Santa’s magical flying reindeer, so these calculations use numbers from various sources and may not represent actual pollution caused by Santa and his animals. In other words, don’t complain to the govenment about the damage Santa is causing the environment based on this article. Santa’s yearly trip around the globe is 44,000km long, twice the average of a North American driver. If we assume that the magic provides the altitude for this trip, then reindeer power only needs to push Santa’s sled forward. To complete the trip in 12 hours, I estimate they must travel at a speed of about 3100 km/h. To travel at this speed, for this length of time, the reindeer need to eat an incredible 980 million calories each! So the next question is: how much food is in 980 million calories? Well, if they’re eating corn, they’d need to eat 16, 500 lbs each-or 1.6 acres of food. Growing 12.8 acres of corn has its own implications for the environment that we’ll leave for another calculation. We now need to consider that during the global trip the reindeer are “letting out” some of that corn in the form of methane. A resting cow produces 110 kg of methane per year, so flying reindeer would each let out about 4.8 tons. With methane causing 20 times the global warming damage of CO2, and the altitude increasing that damage by 1000% that another 20 times, we can put Santa’s round-trip emissions at 15,488 tons. This is much more than the 100 tons an environmentally-friendly car would release on the same trip! Bad Santa. 12. According to Paragraph 6, how many acres of corn would Santa need to feed 10 reindeer? A. 1.6. B. 16. C. 12.8. D. 128. 13 Which of the following statements would the writer most probably agree with? A. Christmas celebrations are really a waste of money. B. Vegetarians are more likely to survive than meat-eaters. C. Raising animals has a negative influence on environment. D. The car industry does less harm to environment than farming. 14. Which of the following words best describes the language style of the passage? A. Serious and boring. B. Cheerful and friendly. C. Academic and formal. D. Humorous and concerned. 15. Which of the following is the best title for this passage? A. Is Santa driving clean and green? B. Santa, watch where you’re going! C. Santa Claus is coming to town! D. Let’s reduce waste on Christmas celebrations! 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。 Artificial Intelligence (AI) geolocation (互联网定位技术) solutions are changing the way researchers track and monitor wildlife, enabling more powerful conservation efforts. These systems use advanced sensors, satellite imagery, and machine learning algorithms (算法) to gather real-time data on animal movements, habitat preferences, and migration patterns. ____16____ Traditional tracking methods often rely on non-automatic tracking or inconvenient necklace-like systems, which may cause stress and discomfort to the animals. ____17____ The devices can work as tags and the camera traps can be set up remotely, which decreases human impact on wildlife.

Later when I was getting older, on my way to school, there was an instrument shop that I passed by almost every day. When I saw through the window, in the corner of the shop stood a nice piano which would always attract my eyes so deeply that I even forgot everything around me. To my sadness, my family was truly struggling. In that period, my mother was laid off from her position and my father was only a clerk in a company. It was just a matter of getting by on a low income, not to mention buying me an expensive piano though they knew I was eager to play that piano so much. The increasing wrinkles in my father’s face even stopped me from having this thought. Then one day after school, I went as usual to the shop window to look at the piano. However, the piano had gone! It was a big surprise. Someone had purchased the piano that I would stare at almost every day! I should not have been surprised as others had the right to buy it, if they could afford to. However, at the thought of not being able to see that piano any more, tears filled my eyes. Disappointed and helpless, I wandered aimlessly up and down the street. I felt as though something had been stolen in my heart. After what seemed a year, I returned home, dragging my heavy legs. Hardly had I just gone into the house when my mother called my name. Brushing away my tears, I followed the sound of her voice into the dining-room. 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。 I couldn’t imagine what was happening in front of me. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Then the door opened and my father appeared, with a big smile on his wrinkled face. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1-5 CCBAB 6-10 BCABC 11-15 ACBBA 16-20 ACBCA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 晋江二中，奕聪中学，泉港五中，广海中学，马甲中学 2023-2024学年下学期期末联考 高二年英语试卷 满分：150分 考试时长：120分钟 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

In 2023, “Britain’s Got Talent” (BGT) uncovered a musical genius named Malakai Bayoh who impressed the audience with perfect high-note singing. The London-based 13-year-old boy appeared for the show’s audition (海选) in April, 2023 and was accompanied by his mom and sister. “My big dream is to be an opera singer. I started singing at 7,” said Malakai to the BGT team. He then added jokingly, “My mom made me join the choir because she’s very bossy.” The teenager mentioned she was his biggest fan. Malakai’s mom was worried as he was about to perform and said, “It scares me because, on his first show, somebody heckled (对……起哄) him. It was sad to see someone boo a child on stage because it might destroy his confidence completely.” Contrary to his mom’s fear, Malakai set the stage on fire singing a beautiful song and the entire crowd was impressed by his amazing voice. As he ended his song, the audience and the judges gave him a big round of applause. The performance won him Simon Cowell’s Golden Buzzer, sending him straight to the semi-finals of the show. The other judges called Malakai’s performance “perfect” and “heavenly”. His angelic voice blew the audience away and the judges thanked the teen for coming to the show. Malakai went on to become one of the finalists of the show and signed a record deal with Universal Music. Malakai’ s audition at the BGT went viral on social media, “I’m a trained singer, and a music teacher by profession, and sang this song as a young performer myself. I can say with absolute certainty this is the best I’ve ever heard this song sung, with proper technique and proper breathing. This boy is a gifted singer,” @mayacorinne878 posted. 4. What made Malakai’s mom feel worried? A. The judge’s expression. B. Her son’s performance on stage. C. A bad experience. D. Her son’s difficulty in singing in public. 5.

The researchers said people with insomnia(失眠症)are more likely to have a heart attack. Insomnia is the most common sleep disorder in the US, the researchers wrote in their report, noting that 10% to 15% of people in the US struggle with it. The meta-analysis of previously published research suggests that the potential association between insomnia and heart attack risk is strongest in women. Dr. Martha Gulati, director of prevention at the Cedars-Sinai Smidt Heart Institute, said that most of her patients are women and that insomnia is a noted risk factor for women who have had any form of ischemic heart disease. “We see it probably in 1 in 10 patients in the United States,” said Gulati, who was not involved in the new research. “It is my impression that almost everyone experiences insomnia at some point in their life. The estimate is that 1 in 2 adults experience it at some point in their life, maybe in the short term because of stressful moments.” For their analysis, the researchers defined insomnia as a sleep disorder with three main symptoms(症状): Difficulty falling asleep, difficulty staying asleep and waking early and being unable to fall back asleep. The study also found an association between increased heart attack risk and how long a participant slept each night. Those who slept five hours or less had the highest association with heart attack risk and were 1.56 times more likely to have a heart attack than people who slept seven or eight hours. Longer sleep duration wasn’t always more protective. The study found that people who slept six hours a night had a lower risk of a heart attack than those who slept nine hours or more. “A lot of studies have pointed somewhere between seven and eight hours of sleep being the magic number for us,” another researcher said. “There is obviously variability for everyone, but too much sleep is rarely the issue.” 8. What’s the function of the first paragraph? A. To list a fact. B. To warn the readers. C. To introduce the topic. D. To draw the readers’ interest. 9. What can we infer from Gulati words? A. Insomnia is unavoidable in the short term. B. Insomnia is a common phenomenon in life. C. Heart attack often happens during insomnia. D. Women are less experienced in dealing with insomnia. 10. What inspiration can we get according to the sleeping time? A. Put quality before quantity. B. Too much is as bad as too little. C. Bite off more than one can chew. D. Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. 11. What’s the author’s attitude to the relationship between insomnia and heart attack? A. Pessimistic. B. Indifferent. C. Objective. D. Positive. 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讨论的是睡眠不足对心脏健康的影响。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“It’s no secret that sleep is important to your overall health, but a lack of sleep could have great effects on your heart, a new study shows. The researchers said people with insomnia are more likely to have a heart attack.(众所周知，睡眠对你的整体健康很重要，但一项新研究显示，睡眠不足可能对你的心脏有很大影响。研究人员说，失眠症更容易患心脏病)”可知，本段主要介绍了一项新的研究，即，睡眠不足可能对你的心脏有很大影响，故第一段的作用是引出文章的主题：睡眠不足对心脏健康的影响。故选C。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中““We see it probably in 1 in 10 patients in the United States,” said Gulati, who was not involved in the new research. “It is my impression that almost everyone experiences insomnia at some point in their life. The estimate is that 1 in 2 adults experience it at some point in their life, maybe in the short term because of stressful moments.”(Gulati说：“在美国，我们发现每10名患者中就有1人患有这种疾病。” Gulati没有参与这项新研究。“在我的印象中，几乎每个人都在人生的某个阶段经历过失眠。据估计，每两个成年人中就有一个在他们生命中的某个时刻经历过这种情况，也许是短期的，因为压力大。”)”可知，从Gulati看来，失眠是生活中的常见现象，因为几乎每个人都在人生的某个阶段经历过失眠。故选B。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段可知“Those who slept five hours or less had the highest association with heart attack risk and were 1.56 times more likely to have a heart attack than people who slept seven or eight hours. Longer sleep duration wasn’t always more protective. The study found that people who slept six hours a night had a lower risk of a heart attack than those who slept nine hours or more. “A lot of studies have pointed somewhere between seven and eight hours of sleep being the magic number for us,” another researcher said. “There is obviously variability for everyone, but too much sleep is rarely the issue.”(睡5小时或更少的人患心脏病的风险最高，比睡7或8小时的人患心脏病的可能性高1.56倍。更长的睡眠时间并不总是更有保护作用。研究发现，每晚睡6个小时的人比睡9个小时或更长时间的人患心脏病的风险更低。另一位研究人员说：“很多研究都指出，7到8小时的睡眠对我们来说是一个神奇的数字。显然每个人都有不同的情况，但睡眠过多并不是问题所在。”)”可知，睡眠不到5小时的人患心脏病的风险最高，同时，更长的睡眠时间并不总是更有保护作用，即，并不是睡眠时间越长越好，文章强调每个人的最优睡眠时长是不同的，因此睡眠的时长并不重要，重要的是睡眠质量，由此推断A选项“Put quality before quantity( 重质轻量)”符合文章题意。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段可知“Those who slept five hours or less had the highest association with heart attack risk and were 1.56 times more likely to have a heart attack than people who slept seven or eight hours. Longer sleep duration wasn’t always more protective. The study found that people who slept six hours a night had a lower risk of a heart attack than those who slept nine hours or more. (睡5小时或更少人患心脏病的风险最高，比睡7或8小时的人患心脏病的可能性高1.56倍。更长的睡眠时间并不总是更有保护作用。研究发现，每晚睡6个小时的人比睡9个小时或更长时间的人患心脏病的风险更低)”可知，睡5小时或更少的人患心脏病的风险最高，比睡7或8小时的人患心脏病的可能性高1.56倍；每晚睡6个小时的人比睡9个小时或更长时间的人患心脏病的风险更低，即，作者通过列举数据说明失眠与心脏病之间的关系，即，睡眠时间（失眠）与心脏病之间的关系并不是绝对的，而是因人而异不同的。故作者对此关系的态度是客观的。故选C。 D Ever wonder how this season’s celebrations affect the environment? Guest blogger Krista Fairles takes an amusing look at this very topic. The holidays are a wonderful, cheerful time when most people wait for Santa to bring them presents. But I’m not like most people. I spend my time wondering just what the environmental impacts of Santa Claus and his reindeer are, and more importantly, how I can calculate those impacts. Lately I’ve been particularly curious as to whether Santa’s old sled is a clean green flying machine, or if he should be replacing his 8 reindeer with an environmentally-friendly car. I should mention that, surprisingly, I was unable to find statistics specific to Santa’s magical flying reindeer, so these calculations use numbers from various sources and may not represent actual pollution caused by Santa and his animals. In other words, don’t complain to the govenment about the damage Santa is causing the environment based on this article. Santa’s yearly trip around the globe is 44,000km long, twice the average of a North American driver. If we assume that the magic provides the altitude for this trip, then reindeer power only needs to push Santa’s sled forward. To complete the trip in 12 hours, I estimate they must travel at a speed of about 3100 km/h. To travel at this speed, for this length of time, the reindeer need to eat an incredible 980 million calories each! So the next question is: how much food is in 980 million calories? Well, if they’re eating corn, they’d need to eat 16, 500 lbs each-or 1.6 acres of food. Growing 12.8 acres of corn has its own implications for the environment that we’ll leave for another calculation. We now need to consider that during the global trip the reindeer are “letting out” some of that corn in the form of methane. A resting cow produces 110 kg of methane per year, so flying reindeer would each let out about 4.8 tons. With methane causing 20 times the global warming damage of CO2, and the altitude increasing that damage by 1000% that another 20 times, we can put Santa’s round-trip emissions at 15,488 tons. This is much more than the 100 tons an environmentally-friendly car would release on the same trip! Bad Santa. 12. According to Paragraph 6, how many acres of corn would Santa need to feed 10 reindeer? A. 1.6. B. 16. C. 12.8. D. 128. 13. Which of the following statements would the writer most probably agree with? A. Christmas celebrations are really a waste of money. B. Vegetarians are more likely to survive than meat-eaters. C. Raising animals has a negative influence on environment. D. The car industry does less harm to environment than farming. 14. Which of the following words best describes the language style of the passage? A. Serious and boring. B. Cheerful and friendly. C. Academic and formal. D. Humorous and concerned. 15. Which of the following is the best title for this passage? A. Is Santa driving clean and green? B. Santa, watch where you’re going! C. Santa Claus is coming to town! D. Let’s reduce waste on Christmas celebrations! 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。假期是一个美妙的，令人愉快的时候，大多数人等待圣诞老人给他们带来礼物。但是Krista Fairles以一种有趣的方式看待这个话题，他通过一系列的数字列举来分析了圣诞老人乘坐他的驯鹿派发圣诞礼物会对环境造成破坏。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段的“Well, if they’re eating corn, they’d need to eat 16, 500 lbs each-or 1.6 acres of food.(好吧，如果它们吃玉米，每头驯鹿需要吃16,500磅——或1.6英亩的食物)”可知，每头驯鹿需要吃1.6英亩的玉米。圣诞老人需要16英亩的玉米来喂养10头驯鹿。故选B。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“We now need to consider that during the global trip the reindeer are “letting out” some of that corn in the form of methane. A resting cow produces 110 kg of methane per year, so flying reindeer would each let out about 4.8 tons. With methane causing 20 times the global warming damage of CO2, and the altitude increasing that damage by 1000% that another 20 times, we can put Santa’s round-trip emissions at 15,488 tons. This is much more than the 100 tons an environmentally-friendly car would release on the same trip!(我们现在需要考虑的是，在全球旅行中，驯鹿以甲烷的形式“释放”了一些玉米。一头休息的牛每年会产生110公斤的甲烷，那么每头会飞的驯鹿每年会释放大约4.8吨甲烷。甲烷对全球变暖造成的危害是二氧化碳的20倍，而海拔高度将其危害增加1000%，再增加20倍，我们可以把圣诞老人的往返排放量增加到15488吨。这比一辆环保汽车在同样的旅程中释放的100吨要多得多！)”推知，作者认为养动物对环境有负面影响，因为会产生大量的温室气体——甲烷。故选C。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。作者在第二至四段中用了幽默的语言指出了圣诞老人乘坐驯鹿派发圣诞礼物会对环境造成破坏，而根据第五段中“To travel at this speed, for this length of time, the reindeer need to eat an incredible 980 million calories each! (要以这样的速度，在这么长的时间里，每只驯鹿需要吃下令人难以置信的9.8亿卡路里!)”，以及第七段中“A resting cow produces 110 kg of methane per year, so flying reindeer would each let out about 4.8 tons With methane causing 20 times the global warming damage of CO2.(一头休息的牛每年会产生110公斤的甲烷，那么每头会飞的驯鹿每年会释放大约4.8吨甲烷。甲烷对全球变暖造成的危害是二氧化碳的20倍)”列举的数字可以看出作者对此感到担忧，即这篇文章的语言风格是幽默且担忧的。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“Lately I’ve been particularly curious as to whether Santa’s old sled is a clean green flying machine, or if he should be replacing his 8 reindeer with an environmentally-friendly car.(最近我特别好奇，圣诞老人的旧雪橇是干净的绿色飞行机器，还是应该把他的8只驯鹿换成一辆环保汽车)”以及通读全文可知，作者分析了圣诞老人乘坐他的驯鹿派发圣诞礼物会对环境造成破坏，由此可知A项“Is Santa driving clean and green?(圣诞老人的代步工具是环保的吗)”作标题最恰当。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。 Artificial Intelligence (AI) geolocation (互联网定位技术) solutions are changing the way researchers track and monitor wildlife, enabling more powerful conservation efforts.

Later when I was getting older, on my way to school, there was an instrument shop that I passed by almost every day. When I saw through the window, in the corner of the shop stood a nice piano which would always attract my eyes so deeply that I even forgot everything around me. To my sadness, my family was truly struggling. In that period, my mother was laid off from her position and my father was only a clerk in a company. It was just a matter of getting by on a low income, not to mention buying me an expensive piano though they knew I was eager to play that piano so much. The increasing wrinkles in my father’s face even stopped me from having this thought. Then one day after school, I went as usual to the shop window to look at the piano. However, the piano had gone! It was a big surprise. Someone had purchased the piano that I would stare at almost every day! I should not have been surprised as others had the right to buy it, if they could afford to. However, at the thought of not being able to see that piano any more, tears filled my eyes. Disappointed and helpless, I wandered aimlessly up and down the street. I felt as though something had been stolen in my heart. After what seemed a year, I returned home, dragging my heavy legs. Hardly had I just gone into the house when my mother called my name. Brushing away my tears, I followed the sound of her voice into the dining-room. 注意： 1. 续写词数应150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I couldn’t imagine what was happening in front of me. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Then the door opened and my father appeared, with a big smile on his wrinkled face. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： I couldn’t imagine what was happening in front of me. Standing there in the room was the very piano I had been longing for day and night. With excitement and surprise in my heart, I couldn’t stop tears streaming down my face. My mother came over to me, saying they knew the piano was what I had dreamed about and my father had tried everything possible to make my dream come true. I was about to say something when there was a sound of footsteps. Then the door opened and my father appeared, with a big smile on his wrinkled face. I gave him a big hug. “It’s so nice of you, Dad!” I said. I could not imagine how much effort he had made and how hard he was working every day. Maybe only the wrinkles on his face could tell me everything. My father kissed me on the forehead, whispering that he had earned enough to buy the piano at last. Only then did I realize that no gift could measure up to a father’s love. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者很小的时候，就对音乐着迷，梦想有一架钢琴。每天放学时都会经过一家钢琴店，看着里面的钢琴很是渴望。一天，作者发现钢琴店里的钢琴不见了，很是难过，认为一定是被人买走了。但是，回到家后，作者意外地发现那架钢琴居然摆设在自己的家里，后来，作者知道原来是父亲辛苦地挣钱买给作者当作礼物的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我无法想象在我面前发生了什么。”可知，第一段可描写作者进入房间后，看到眼前情景的经过。。 ②由第二段首句内容“这时门开了，我父亲走了出来，布满皱纹的脸上挂着灿烂的笑容。”可知，第二段可描写作者对于父亲买钢琴的感激以及作者的感受。。 2.续写线索：进入房间——看到钢琴——内心的兴奋和惊喜——父亲进来了——看到父亲后的感激——作者的感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①过来：came over /come up/come here ②.意识到：realize /be aware of ③.阻止：stop /prevent /hold back 情绪类 ①.渴望：longing for /desire/eager to ②.兴奋：excitement / stimulation 【点睛】[高分句型1].
