B Netizens have praised Yu Tiantian from Zhengzhou, Henan province, for insisting on dancing for 15 years despite having a hearing disability from birth, People’s Daily reported on Sunday. Born in the 1990s, Yu’s world has been silent since she was a year old when her family found she couldn’t hear any voices. Through touching her mother’s throat to feel how the muscles affect the voice, Yu learned to speak. However, like any other girl, Yu has a natural love for beauty. Watching others dance in a club during her childhood, Yu developed a deep affection for dance, although she lacked a formal dance background. After graduating from high school, Yu was admitted to the Zhengzhou Normal University School of Special Education, majoring in dance. It was only when her university life started that she began to change, making friends and embracing a colorful world. Learning dance posed a great challenge for Yu. “I can’t hear the music, so I have to feel rhythm in my heart. I follow the instructor and dance. I practice basic skills every day. However, mastering the technique of those horizontal and vertical crosses was a struggle, and the pain in my feet and ankles often made me shed tears,” said Yu. After entering university, Yu has found her own pace and danced with all her heart. She and her roommates won first prize in a dance competition. Encouraged by it, she began to take part in various competitions. Yu shares much in common with her roommates, all of whom have hearing disabilities. Within a relaxed and harmonious atmosphere, their relationship grew much stronger. Gradually, they had the idea to share their stories with more people. Yu also posted videos showing how people with hearing disabilities gossip in sign language, which proves to be livelier than verbal conversation. With her account gaining popularity, Yu has become more confident and even has her own fanbase. “People with hearing disabilities can also record their lives and help others. No one is born with discrimination. Eliminating bias can start by seeing our daily lives,” she added. 24. What made Yu Tiantian major in dance? A. Her natural love for beauty. B. Her passion for dance. C. Her formal dance background. D. Her parents’ encouragement. 25. Which of the following words can best describe Yu as a student? A. Determined and optimistic. B. Generous and cooperative. C. Sensitive and responsible. D. Outgoing and humorous. 26. What can we infer from Yu’s university life with her roommates? A. They were too shy to share their stories with others. B. They won prizes in every dance competition. C. They lived in harmony with each other. D. They had no common hobbies. 27. According to Yu, how do people with disabilities want to be treated? A. The disabled can do everything that normal people do. B. The disabled should take the bias for granted. C. The disabled should be taken good care of. D. The disabled should be fairly treated. C Chilly weather and common respiratory (呼吸器官) infections often go hand in hand. Reasons for this include people gather inside more in winter and viruses survive better in low-humidity indoor air. But there has been less certainty about whether lower temperatures actually impair human immunity (免疫力) and, if so, how. Now, a new study published December 6, 2022, in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology details a previously unknown way that the immune system attacks viruses inside the nose and finds it works better when it’s warm. Mansoor Amiji, a pharmaceutical sciences professor at Northeastern University, found that our noses released “extracellular vesicles” (EVs) — a spray of tiny sacs (囊) that gathered and destroyed bacteria upon breathing in. For the new research, the team set out to answer a question: is the strength of EVS’ response linked to temperature? In order to tackle the question, they divided the nasal (鼻的) cell samples into two groups and cultivated them in a lab, subjecting one set of samples to 37C, and the other to 32°C. Under regular body heat conditions, the EVs were successfully able to fight off viruses. But under the reduced temperatures, fewer EVs were produced, and those that were made packed less attack against the invaders tested: two rhinoviruses (鼻病毒的) and a non-COVID coronavirus, which are typically found in winter cold season. “There’s never been a convincing reason why you have this very clear increase in viral infectivity in the cold months” said co-author Benjamin Bleier, a surgeon at Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts Eye and Ear. “This is the first quantitative and biologically reasonable explanation that has been developed.” He added. “These discoveries could pave the way for an eventual treatment against the common cold, or even the flu and COVID,” said Amiji, “That’s an area of great interest for us and we certainly continue to pursue that.” 28. What does the underlined word “impair” in Paragraph 1 mean? A. Damage. B. Improve. C. Influence. D. Preserve. 29. How did Mansoor Amiji conduct the new research? A. By raising a question. B. By cultivating the nasal samples. C. By setting the contrast experiment. D. By adjusting the temperature in the lab. 30. What can we know about the EVs according to the research? A. The EVs are typically found in the cold season. B. The EVs release sacs to destroy bacteria upon inhalation. C. The EVs won’t resist the rhinoviruses under regular body heat conditions. D. The EVs’ quantity and attack power are positively associated with temperature. 31. What is Benjamin Bleier’s attitude towards the result of the study? A. Skeptical. B. Approved. C. Conservative. D. Indifferent. D Believe it or not, English has become the global lingua franca (世界通用语) in the 21st century. The ability to speak English fluently has become a necessity for individuals and countries to participate in the global economy. This is particularly true for countries that heavily rely on international trade and investment. Singapore is a perfect example of such a country. Singapore is a small city-state located in Southeast Asia. Despite its small size, it has become one of the most prosperous and innovative economies in the world. This nation has gained a reputation for having a good quality of life, well-developed infrastructure (基础设施), and a favorable climate for businesses. While there are four official languages in Singapore, English, Chinese, Malay, and Tamil, English is the most commonly used language in business, education, and government. English has played a crucial role in Singapore’s economic development. The country’s founding father, Lee Kuan Yew, acknowledged the significance of English in the international business environment and made it a priority to promote English learning in Singapore. He saw English as a tool to connect Singapore to the world and attract foreign investment. The government carried out policies to promote English learning, such as making English the medium of instruction in schools and providing financial support for teachers to teach English. As a result of these policies, Singaporeans have become proficient in English, and this has given them a competitive edge in the global economy. Singapore is home to many multinational corporations, and English proficiency is a critical factor for these companies when selecting employees. Singaporeans’ proficiency in English has also made it easier for them to conduct business with other countries, particularly those in the Western world. As a consequence, the country started marching forward steadily towards prosperity. 32. What is indicated in Paragraph 1? A. English is necessary for people to communicate with neighboring countries. B. English is the only language spoken in the global economy. C. English is a tool to draw in overseas investors to invest. D. English is the official language of all countries. 33. What do we know about Singapore in Paragraph 2? A. English is the most widely used official language in Singapore. B. Government officials have a high quality of life. C. It is the most economically powerful country in Asia. D. Tamil is the most commonly used language in business education, and government 34. What did Lee Kuan Yew do in Singapore’s promotion of English learning? A. He made policies to protect the business environment in Singapore. B. He was a huge supporter of English-related business. C. He laid emphasis on English learning in Singapore. D. He was devoted to attracting foreign investment. 35. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A. Reasonable policies lead to the prosperity of Singapore. B. English learning drives Singapore’s development. C. English, the global lingua franca. D. The road to a prosperous country. 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。 What is stereotype?

She stood near Ms. Robins and looked around shyly. “This is Eva,” said Ms. Robins. “Will someone volunteer to show her around today?” Chase raised his hand. He liked showing the new kids around and helping them feel welcome. “Thanks, Chase,” Ms. Robins said. “Now let’s get busy with our work so we’re done in time for the party.” That’s when Chase realized he didn’t have a gift for Eva. No one else would have one either. Chase pictured his classmates’ desks covered with gifts while Eva’s desk was empty. He felt a sad lump in his stomach. After class, he was careful not to mention the party as he showed Eva around the playground. At lunchtime, he walked Eva to the lunchroom, still worried about what would happen at the party. Eva had brought a packed lunch, so Chase showed her where she was supposed to sit and introduced her to some of the kids at her table. Chase picked up a tray and joined the rest of his classmates in the lunch line. As the lunch server placed a heart-shaped cookie on Chase’s tray, Chase suddenly remembered that kids often included candy hearts or other treats with the valentines they exchanged. An idea popped into his head as he sat down round the table. He whispered it to the kids around him. Soon everyone at the table was nodding and whispering. When they were back in the classroom after lunch, Chase told Ms. Robins about their plan and asked for a piece of red paper. Ms. Robins smiled. “That’s very thoughtful,” she said. “Let’s go for it.” 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。 Eva didn’t know a surprise was waiting for her. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, they passed out their valentines at the party. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024届云南三校高考备考实用性联考卷（六） 英语 注意事项： 1. 答题前，考生务必用黑色碳素笔将自己的姓名、准考证号、考场号、座位号在答题卡上填写清楚。 2. 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。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。在试题卷上作答无效。 3. 考试结束后，请将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。满分150分，考试用时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。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 Why does the man make a call?

Born in the 1990s, Yu’s world has been silent since she was a year old when her family found she couldn’t hear any voices. Through touching her mother’s throat to feel how the muscles affect the voice, Yu learned to speak. However, like any other girl, Yu has a natural love for beauty. Watching others dance in a club during her childhood, Yu developed a deep affection for dance, although she lacked a formal dance background. After graduating from high school Yu was admitted to the Zhengzhou Normal University School of Special Education, majoring in dance.

Learning dance posed a great challenge for Yu. “I can’t hear the music, so I have to feel rhythm in my heart. I follow the instructor and dance. I practice basic skills every day. However, mastering the technique of those horizontal and vertical crosses was a struggle, and the pain in my feet and ankles often made me shed tears,” said Yu. After entering university, Yu has found her own pace and danced with all her heart. She and her roommates won first prize in a dance competition. Encouraged by it, she began to take part in various competitions. Yu shares much in common with her roommates, all of whom have hearing disabilities. Within a relaxed and harmonious atmosphere, their relationship grew much stronger. Gradually, they had the idea to share their stories with more people. Yu also posted videos showing how people with hearing disabilities gossip in sign language, which proves to be livelier than verbal conversation. With her account gaining popularity, Yu has become more confident and even has her own fanbase. “People with hearing disabilities can also record their lives and help others. No one is born with discrimination. Eliminating bias can start by seeing our daily lives,” she added. 24. What made Yu Tiantian major in dance? A. Her natural love for beauty. B.

Reasons for this include people gather inside more in winter and viruses survive better in low-humidity indoor air. But there has been less certainty about whether lower temperatures actually impair human immunity (免疫力) and, if so, how. Now, a new study published December 6, 2022, in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology details a previously unknown way that the immune system attacks viruses inside the nose and finds it works better when it’s warm. Mansoor Amiji, a pharmaceutical sciences professor at Northeastern University, found that our noses released “extracellular vesicles” (EVs) — a spray of tiny sacs (囊) that gathered and destroyed bacteria upon breathing in. For the new research, the team set out to answer a question: is the strength of EVS’ response linked to temperature? In order to tackle the question, they divided the nasal (鼻的) cell samples into two groups and cultivated them in a lab, subjecting one set of samples to 37C, and the other to 32°C. Under regular body heat conditions, the EVs were successfully able to fight off viruses. But under the reduced temperatures, fewer EVs were produced, and those that were made packed less attack against the invaders tested: two rhinoviruses (鼻病毒的) and a non-COVID coronavirus, which are typically found in winter cold season. “There’s never been a convincing reason why you have this very clear increase in viral infectivity in the cold months,” said co-author Benjamin Bleier, a surgeon at Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts Eye and Ear. “This is the first quantitative and biologically reasonable explanation that has been developed.” He added. “These discoveries could pave the way for an eventual treatment against the common cold, or even the flu and COVID,” said Amiji, “That’s an area of great interest for us and we certainly continue to pursue that.” 28. What does the underlined word “impair” in Paragraph 1 mean? A. Damage. B. Improve. C. Influence. D. Preserve. 29. How did Mansoor Amiji conduct the new research? A. By raising a question. B. By cultivating the nasal samples. C. By setting the contrast experiment. D. By adjusting the temperature in the lab. 30. What can we know about the EVs according to the research? A. The EVs are typically found in the cold season. B. The EVs release sacs to destroy bacteria upon inhalation. C. The EVs won’t resist the rhinoviruses under regular body heat conditions. D. The EVs’ quantity and attack power are positively associated with temperature. 31. What is Benjamin Bleier’s attitude towards the result of the study? A. Skeptical. B. Approved. C. Conservative. D. Indifferent. 【答案】28. A 29. C 30. D 31. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一个关于低温是否影响人体免疫力的实验，介绍了实验的经过以及发现等情况。 【28题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Reasons for this include people gather inside more in winter and viruses survive better in low-humidity indoor air.(究其原因，冬天人们更多地聚集在室内，而病毒在低湿度的室内空气中更容易存活)”以及“there has been less certainty about whether lower temperatures actually”可知，上文提到病毒在低湿度的室内空气中更容易存活，故划线词所在句意思是低温是否真的会损害人体免疫力。故划线词意思是“破坏”。故选A。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“In order to tackle the question, they divided the nasal (鼻的) cell samples into two groups and cultivated them in a lab, subjecting one set of samples to 37C, and the other to 32°C.(为了解决这个问题，他们将鼻细胞样本分成两组，并在实验室中培养，将一组样本置于37℃，另一组置于32℃)”可知，Mansoor Amiji通过设置对比实验进行这项新研究。故选C。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“But under the reduced temperatures, fewer EVs were produced, and those that were made packed less attack against the invaders tested: two rhinoviruses (鼻病毒的) and a non-COVID coronavirus, which are typically found in winter cold season.(但在温度降低的情况下，EV的数量减少了，而那些被包装好的EV对测试的入侵者的攻击也减少了：两种鼻病毒和一种非冠状病毒，这两种病毒通常在冬季寒冷季节发现)”可知，EV的数量和攻击力与温度呈正相关。故选D。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段““There’s never been a convincing reason why you have this very clear increase in viral infectivity in the cold months,” said co-author Benjamin Bleier, a surgeon at Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts Eye and Ear. “This is the first quantitative and biologically reasonable explanation that has been developed.” He added.(“从来没有一个令人信服的原因，为什么在寒冷的月份病毒传染性会明显增加，”哈佛医学院和马萨诸塞州眼耳外科医生本杰明·布莱尔说。“这是第一个定量的、生物学上合理的解释。”他补充说)”可知，Benjamin Bleier对研究结果的态度是赞成的。故选B。 D Believe it or not, English has become the global lingua franca (世界通用语) in the 21st century. The ability to speak English fluently has become a necessity for individuals and countries to participate in the global economy. This is particularly true for countries that heavily rely on international trade and investment. Singapore is a perfect example of such a country. Singapore is a small city-state located in Southeast Asia. Despite its small size, it has become one of the most prosperous and innovative economies in the world. This nation has gained a reputation for having a good quality of life, well-developed infrastructure (基础设施), and a favorable climate for businesses. While there are four official languages in Singapore, English, Chinese, Malay, and Tamil, English is the most commonly used language in business, education, and government. English has played a crucial role in Singapore’s economic development. The country’s founding father, Lee Kuan Yew, acknowledged the significance of English in the international business environment and made it a priority to promote English learning in Singapore. He saw English as a tool to connect Singapore to the world and attract foreign investment. The government carried out policies to promote English learning, such as making English the medium of instruction in schools and providing financial support for teachers to teach English. As a result of these policies, Singaporeans have become proficient in English, and this has given them a competitive edge in the global economy. Singapore is home to many multinational corporations, and English proficiency is a critical factor for these companies when selecting employees. Singaporeans’ proficiency in English has also made it easier for them to conduct business with other countries, particularly those in the Western world. As a consequence, the country started marching forward steadily towards prosperity. 32. What is indicated in Paragraph 1? A. English is necessary for people to communicate with neighboring countries. B. English is the only language spoken in the global economy. C. English is a tool to draw in overseas investors to invest. D. English is the official language of all countries. 33. What do we know about Singapore in Paragraph 2? A. English is the most widely used official language in Singapore. B. Government officials have a high quality of life. C. It is the most economically powerful country in Asia. D. Tamil is the most commonly used language in business, education, and government 34.

He laid emphasis on English learning in Singapore. D. He was devoted to attracting foreign investment. 35. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A. Reasonable policies lead to the prosperity of Singapore. B. English learning drives Singapore’s development. C. English, the global lingua franca. D. The road to a prosperous country. 【答案】32. C 33. A 34. C 35. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文以新加坡为例介绍了英语在国家发展中起到的重要作用。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“The ability to speak English fluently has become a necessity for individuals and countries to participate in the global economy. This is particularly true for countries that heavily rely on international trade and investment. Singapore is a perfect example of such a country.(流利地说英语的能力已经成为个人和国家参与全球经济的必要条件。对于严重依赖国际贸易和投资的国家来说尤其如此。新加坡就是一个很好的例子)”可知，英语是吸引外国投资者的重要工具。故选C。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“While there are four official languages in Singapore, English, Chinese, Malay, and Tamil, English is the most commonly used language in business, education, and government.(虽然新加坡有四种官方语言：英语、汉语、马来语和泰米尔语，但英语是商业、教育和政府中最常用的语言)”可知，新加坡虽然有四门官方语言，但英语是使用最广泛的语言。故选A。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“The country’s founding father, Lee Kuan Yew, acknowledged the significance of English in the international business environment and made it a priority to promote English learning in Singapore. (新加坡的国父李光耀承认英语在国际商业环境中的重要性，并将促进新加坡的英语学习作为优先事项)”可知，新加坡之父李光耀认识到英语在全球经济中的重要性，才大力推行英语。故选C。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“The ability to speak English fluently has become a necessity for individuals and countries to participate in the global economy.(流利地说英语的能力已经成为个人和国家参与全球经济的必要条件)”以及最后一句“Singapore is a perfect example of such a country.(新加坡就是一个很好的例子)”可知，英语在国际贸易中已经是一个必备技能，新加坡就是一个很好的例子。根据最后一段最后一句“As a consequence, the country started marching forward steadily towards prosperity.(结果，国家开始稳步走向繁荣)”可知，由于新加坡重视英语教育，在对外贸易上有很大优势，使得这个国家逐渐走向繁荣。B选项“英语学习推动新加坡发展”符合文章标题。故选B。 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。 What is stereotype?

Men have been thought to be a leader, strong, aggressive and brave.____36____ Age stereotype is that someone judges other people’s behavior and appearance because of the age. Children are often described as innocent, naughty. Then, young people are usually stereotyped as impatient, rebellious and indulging in comfort. Adults are related to responsibility. ___37___ Because the old people are stereotyped as weak and sick, not moving flexibly, which means to be a big trouble. ___38___ A concept can easily be formed that star is a decent and charming job with a lot of fun and more opportunities to contact fashion and celebrity, to dress up, and to taste delicious food in high-class restaurants. But not all stars can have these wonderful experiences. ___39___ They have to work on the other business to earn money under the pressure of life. Some view stereotype as a good way to enable them to respond to different things, judging if they are good or bad, as well as adapting into a new environment. However, some stereotypes are not quite consistent with the changing world and are easy to produce prejudice or misunderstandings. ___40___ A. Women are able to take charge of the nation and run their business, too. B. Thus, it is much wiser for us to deal with stereotype in a wider perspective. C. There are more stereotypes about stars than other occupations. D. Occupation stereotype also occurs in our minds. E. But women are thought to be attached, weak, compromised and soft. F. Some stars’ salary is lower than common white-collar workers. G. Nowadays, many adults are not willing to attend to their parents. 【答案】36. E 37. G 38. D 39. F 40. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章对不同类型的刻板印象进行了描述和剖析，包括性别刻板印象、年龄刻板印象和职业刻板印象，并指出这些刻板印象可能带来的负面影响。文章强调了刻板印象的片面性和不准确性，同时也提到了人们对刻板印象的不同看法。 【36题详解】 根据上文“Gender stereotype refers to a judgment about someone according to their sex instead of believing in their ability. Men have been thought to be a leader, strong, aggressive and brave(性别刻板印象指的是根据某人的性别而非其能力做出判断。男性通常被认为具有领导力、坚强、具有攻击性且勇敢)”可知，上文说的是性别刻板印象，并解释了男性的在人们心中的形象，可推理出下文说的是女性在人们心中的形象，与E项“But women are thought to be attached, weak, compromised and soft(但是，女性被认为是依恋的、软弱的、妥协的和温柔的)”表达的含义一致，故选E项。 【37题详解】 根据下文“Because the old people are stereotyped as weak and sick, not moving flexibly, which means to be a big trouble(因为老年人被刻板地认为是体弱多病、行动不便，这意味着会带来很大的麻烦。)”可知空白处与下文之间为因果关系，可推理出空白处应填表示结果含义的表达，这个结果是由下文表述的原因导致的，与G项“Nowadays, many adults are not willing to attend to their parents.( 如今，许多成年人不愿照顾他们的父母)”表达的含义一致，故选G项。 【38题详解】 根据下文“A concept can easily be formed that star is a decent and charming job with a lot of fun and more opportunities to contact fashion and celebrity, to dress up, and to taste delicious food in high-class restaurants. But not all stars can have these wonderful experiences.(人们很容易就会形成一个观念，认为明星是一个体面且充满魅力的职业，有很多乐趣，有更多的机会接触时尚和名人，可以打扮得光鲜亮丽，在高档餐厅品尝美食。但并非所有明星都能拥有这些美妙的体验)”可知下文说的是人们心中的有关明星的职业刻板印象，可推理出此处上下文说的是职业刻板印象在人们心中存在，与D项“Occupation stereotype also occurs in our minds(职业刻板印象也存在于我们的心中。)”表达的含义一致，故选D项。 【39题详解】 根据下文“They have to work on the other business to earn money under the pressure of life.(在生活压力之下，他们不得不从事其他生意来赚钱。)”可知，此处上下文说的是有些明星收入并不是我们想象中的那么高，与F项“Some stars’ salary is lower than common white-collar workers.(有些明星的薪水比普通白领还低。)”表达的含义一致，故选F项。 【40题详解】 根据上文“Some view stereotype as a good way to enable them to respond to different things, judging if they are good or bad, as well as adapting into a new environment. However, some stereotypes are not quite consistent with the changing world and are easy to produce prejudice or misunderstandings(有些人认为刻板印象是一种很好的方式，使他们能够对不同的事物做出反应，判断其好坏，并适应新环境。然而，有些刻板印象与不断变化的世界并不完全一致，容易产生偏见或误解。)”可知，上文说的是刻板印象带来的不好的影响，可推理出下文引出一个更明智的处理刻板印象的方法，与B项“Thus, it is much wiser for us to deal with stereotype in a wider perspective(因此，我们从更宽广的视角处理刻板印象要明智得多)”表达的含义一致，故选B项。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Once, a daughter complained to her father that her life was ___41___ and that she didn't know how she was going to make it.

She stood near Ms. Robins and looked around shyly. “This is Eva,” said Ms. Robins. “Will someone volunteer to show her around today?” Chase raised his hand. He liked showing the new kids around and helping them feel welcome. “Thanks, Chase,” Ms. Robins said. “Now let’s get busy with our work so we’re done in time for the party.” That’s when Chase realized he didn’t have a gift for Eva. No one else would have one either. Chase pictured his classmates’ desks covered with gifts while Eva’s desk was empty. He felt a sad lump in his stomach. After class, he was careful not to mention the party as he showed Eva around the playground. At lunchtime, he walked Eva to the lunchroom, still worried about what would happen at the party. Eva had brought a packed lunch, so Chase showed her where she was supposed to sit and introduced her to some of the kids at her table. Chase picked up a tray and joined the rest of his classmates in the lunch line. As the lunch server placed a heart-shaped cookie on Chase’s tray, Chase suddenly remembered that kids often included candy hearts or other treats with the valentines they exchanged. An idea popped into his head as he sat down round the table. He whispered it to the kids around him. Soon everyone at the table was nodding and whispering. When they were back in the classroom after lunch, Chase told Ms. Robins about their plan and asked for a piece of red paper. Ms. Robins smiled. “That’s very thoughtful,” she said. “Let’s go for it.” 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。 Eva didn’t know a surprise was waiting for her. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, they passed out their valentines at the party. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Eva didn’t know a surprise was waiting for her. A mix of tension and excitement creeping upon him, Chase pretended to talk to Eva, making sure Eva wouldn’t notice her new classmates passing around a red paper heart that Ms. Robins had created. Dashing to his seat, Chase reached out into the desk without delay. The instant he spotted the paper heart with “To Eva” in the middle and all his classmates’ names around it, his face glowed with joy, his eyes sparkling. He added his name, then quickly closed the desk lid. Before long, it was party time. The room buzzed with happy chatter. Finally, they passed out their valentines at the party. Chase saw the upset look on Eva’s face as she glanced at all the other kids’ desks overflowing with envelopes. “Here’s your gift, Eva,” Chase said, placing the big red heart in front of her. “It’s from everyone.” Staring at the beautiful valentine, Eva was moved beyond words. Then, one by one, Chase and his classmates piled some candy hearts on Eva’s desk. Soon Eva’s desk, too, was covered in packages of gifts. “We want you to have a special Valentine’s Day, too.” said Chase. “Thank you,” Eva said, smiling at the friendly faces around the room. “It really is a special day!” At the moment, everything paled into insignificance in comparison to the warm hearty welcome. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了蔡斯的班上来了新同学伊娃，为了不让伊娃感到失落，于是和同学们一起为伊娃准备了礼物。伊娃收到同学的礼物十分感动。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“伊娃不知道有一个惊喜在等着她。”可知，第一段可描写大家为伊娃准备礼物的经过。 ②由第二段首句内容“最后，他们在聚会上分发了情人节礼物。”可知，第二段可描写送给伊娃礼物的过程以及伊娃收到礼物的反应。 2.续写线索：为伊娃准备礼物——充满愉快氛围——分发礼物——送伊娃礼物——伊娃感动 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①充满：buzz with /be filled with ②看到：spot/notice ③看着：stare at/look at 情绪类 ①快乐：happy/joyful ②激动：excitement/thrill 【点睛】[高分句型1] The instant he spotted the paper heart with “To Eva” in the middle and all his classmates’ names around it, his face glowed with joy, his eyes sparkling.
