A two-day tour offers the opportunity to experience historic Cape May and its Victorian elegance during a magical time of year. Upon arriving in Cape May, enjoy lunch at the Washington Inn — a local landmark constructed in 1846. Afterward, meet your guide for a tour of Cape May Point to see the World War II lookout tower and 1859 Cape May lighthouse, where you enjoy the breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean and Delaware Bay.

Dinner is followed by a talk on Christmas traditions of the Victorian era and an evening trolley ride through the town to enjoy the holiday lights and decorations. The next morning, after breakfast at the hotel’s Blue Pig Tavern, board the trolley for a guided tour of the historic district, featuring a variety of Victorian architectural styles. After lunch at Cold Spring Grange, explore everyday life in the 19th century at Cold Spring Village before returning to Washington, D. C.

B Since kicking off with a colorful opening ceremony on the Seine River on 26, July, 2024, the Summer Games in Paris have already delivered several viral moments. One photograph in particular has attracted the Internet’s attention this week. In it, Brazilian surfer Gabriel Medina appears to be suspending above the ocean alongside his surfboard. With his right arm stretched high above his head, Medina raises his index finger toward the sky while seemingly floating through the air. His surfboard, which is still attached to his ankle, mirrors his body positioning above the wave. Jérôme Brouillet, a photojournalist, caught the great moment. “I never thought it was possible that this shot would be so much appreciated, but I can understand why,” says Brouillet. The photo was taken in the waters off Teahupo’o, a tiny village with beautiful scenery on the island of Tahiti in the South Pacific Ocean — nearly 10,000 miles from the Paris games. Tahiti is part of French Polynesia, and it’s reasonable the Olympic surfing events were being held there. The 48 surfing athletes were being housed onboard a big ship. Brouillet took the picture just after Medina finished a record-setting ride on a barrel wave. He was scheduled to face off against fellow Brazilian surfer Joāo Chianca in the quarterfinals on 30th, but the events were postponed because of bad weather. “I took four pictures and one of them was this one,” Brouillet says. “It wasn’t hard to take the picture. It was more about anticipating the moment and where Gabriel would kick off the wave.” Even facing all the admiration and attention, Brouillet joked on social media, “Well hum. I just pushed the right button this time. To be fair, if all conditions are met — weather, waves, light, if the boat driver is in the right position, and if you know how to use your camera — you can take good images of surfing in Teahupo’o,” he says, “All the rest is experience, timing and a bit of luck. This distinguishes a good shot from a great shot.” 4. What aspect of the photo does paragraph 2 focus on? A. Medina’s surfing poses. B. The strong ocean waves. C. The unique floating surfboard. D. Medina’s magic floating image. 5. What was the primary reason for the surfing events being held in Tahiti? A. Its pleasant climate conditions. B. Its breathtaking natural scenery. C. Its status as part of French Polynesia. D. Its large waves and complete facilities. 6. Which best describes Brouillet? A. Determined and lucky. B. Skilled and devoted. C. Modest and professional. D. Enthusiastic and confident. 7. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To praise a photojournalist. B. To introduce surfing sports. C. To record an athlete’s success. D. To promote the Olympic spirit. C Dozens of wildfires are burning across Canada in May 2024 and sending unhealthy smoke blowing into the northern US again. At the same time, the southeastern US is getting smoke from Mexico, where drought (干旱) conditions have been fueling fires. Last year, Canada’s record 2023 wildfire season introduced millions of Americans across the Midwest and northeastern states to the health threats of wildfire smoke, with air quality warnings that reached levels never seen there before. Professional baseball games were postponed and the skies in New York City turned orange, at times exposing millions of people to the worst air quality in the world. In some regions, the smoke hung on for days. Hotter, drier conditions, coupled with dry grasses and underbrush that built up over decades of fire control, have made large wildfires more common. Canada is experiencing a second consecutive (连续) extremely dry year in 2024, and it is also facing the re-emergence of fires that burnt underground through the winter. In May, 2024, smoke from fires in British Columbia and Alberta reached unhealthy levels from Montana to Wisconsin and began to spread south and east into the Midwest and Great Lakes region. The North American Seasonal Fire Assessment and Outlook for May through July highlights drought conditions in western Canada and Central America and higher than normal fire risk in both regions. More importantly, it notes the challenge of forecasting fire risk for later in the year as the El Niño climate pattern changes to La Niña in late summer. Computer simulations (模拟) of the future in a warming climate show there will be more smoky days, higher smoke concentrations, larger burned areas and higher carbon emissions from the fires — which further fuel climate change. In short, people will need to learn to live with wildfire smoke. It won't be every year, but it will be more common. 8. Why does the author mention “baseball games” and “the skies in New York”? A. To illustrate wildfires in Canada are a trend. B. To emphasize the consequences of wildfires. C. To show how scientists evaluate air quality. D. To explain the return of wildfires in Canada. 9. What makes predicting the fire risk more challenging this year? A. Constant drought conditions. B. Air pollution levels. C. Climate pattern changes. D. Larger burned areas. 10. Which statement does the author agree with concerning wildfire smoke? A It will be a new normal. B. It relies on climate change. C. It can prevent La Niña. D. It means more burned areas. 11. What’s the text about? A. Canada’s wildfire issues. B. Wildfire smoke in America. C. Canadian wildfires’ effects on US air quality. D. The risks of wildfires in Canada and America. D When humans have conversations, we take turns speaking, sometimes even interrupting each other. Now, a study reports that chimps (黑猩猩) follow a similar communication pattern structured around back-and-forth, fast-paced turns. “Human conversation follows very strict rules of turn-taking that are homogeneous across cultures and languages,” says Gal Badihi, the first author of the study. ”We started to wonder whether chimp communication is governed by its own rules, or if the rules are similar to human conversation.“ To figure out whether these interactions are like human turn taking, Badihi and coworkers studied hundreds of hours of videos of 8,559 gestures from 252 individuals recorded by other multiple researchers across decades of fieldwork in East Africa. The scientists studied them, describing the precise movements each chimp made when gesturing, the response of other chimps, the duration of the gestures, and other details. They found that 14% of the recorded interactions included at least one response to a gesture, while some included as many as seven back-and-forth responses. Chimps took an average of 120 milliseconds to reply with a gesture, which is not all that different from the human average of 200 milliseconds. Chimp gestures are largely meant to convey requests, with “groom (梳理) me”, “follow me”, “give me” or “stop it” being common commands. The researchers witnessed a variety of gestured interactions, such as chimps asking to change spots during grooming sessions. They do them just like humans do. This is different from other animals like dogs, for example, because an exchange of barking could just be an automatic instinctive (本能) unlearned reaction, rather than a true response in a conversation. Another similarity researchers noticed is the slight difference in response time between chimp communities—a variation that also exists among different human cultures. ”Amazingly, they seem to share both our universal turn-taking timing and slight cultural differences,“ says researcher Cat Hobaiter. ”In humans, it is the Danish who are ‘slower’ responders, and in Eastern chimps that’s the Sonso community in Uganda.“ 12. What does the word “homogeneous” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Normal. B. Perfect. C. Vivid. D. Consistent. 13. How did Badihi’s team do the research on the interactions of chimps? A. By training them on site. B. By carrying out fieldwork. C. By analyzing ready-made data. D. By responding to their gestures. 14. What do scientists find about the gestures between chimps? A. They are intentional. B. They are similar to dogs’. C. They almost have no difference. D. They are formed naturally. 15. What can be inferred about the chimps in the Sonso community in Uganda? A. They communicate more effectively. B. They respond to others like the Danish. C. They avoid face-to-face conversations. D. They tend to learn language from humans. 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。 We have many hands-on hobbies to choose from in our daily life.

She was a ray of sunshine and always had a kind word for her server. Rain didn’t always visit the restaurant alone. She and her husband had eaten at the restaurant when it opened and became regulars. It was the venue of their 30th wedding anniversary too and they danced till late into the night. Unfortunately, her husband took ill about a year later and died. It was a terrible time for Rain. Their son and daughter were working and settled in New Zealand, who wanted Rain to come and live with them so that they could take care of her. However, Rain refused because she loved her hometown very much. But she was so sad because of the passing of her husband. Gradually, she didn’t want any visitors, nor did she go out. After Sampson, the owner of the restaurant, learnt what happened to Rain, he personally wrote a letter to Rain inviting her to his restaurant for free meals every day and designated waiter Robert to serve her specifically. It was the encouragement she needed to get past her sorrow. Though it wasn’t easy, Rain took a brave step. As she sat at the table by the window, Sampson sat with her and told her that though busy since he was investing in a big project, he assured, “I`ll be always with you because I’ve known you for over 30 years.” Rain was deeply moved. It was a great evening and the beginning of a new chapter in her life. Then one day, Rain received a call from the hospital. It was the test result she had a week earlier. She went to the hospital quickly, where the doctor informed Rain that she had blood cancer. She asked how serious it was and how long she had.

One photograph in particular has attracted the Internet’s attention this week. In it, Brazilian surfer Gabriel Medina appears to be suspending above the ocean alongside his surfboard. With his right arm stretched high above his head, Medina raises his index finger toward the sky while seemingly floating through the air. His surfboard, which is still attached to his ankle, mirrors his body positioning above the wave. Jérôme Brouillet, a photojournalist, caught the great moment. “I never thought it was possible that this shot would be so much appreciated, but I can understand why,” says Brouillet. The photo was taken in the waters off Teahupo’o, a tiny village with beautiful scenery on the island of Tahiti in the South Pacific Ocean — nearly 10,000 miles from the Paris games. Tahiti is part of French Polynesia, and it’s reasonable the Olympic surfing events were being held there. The 48 surfing athletes were being housed onboard a big ship. Brouillet took the picture just after Medina finished a record-setting ride on a barrel wave. He was scheduled to face off against fellow Brazilian surfer Joāo Chianca in the quarterfinals on 30th, but the events were postponed because of bad weather. “I took four pictures and one of them was this one,” Brouillet says. “It wasn’t hard to take the picture. It was more about anticipating the moment and where Gabriel would kick off the wave.” Even facing all the admiration and attention, Brouillet joked on social media, “Well hum. I just pushed the right button this time. To be fair, if all conditions are met — weather, waves, light, if the boat driver is in the right position, and if you know how to use your camera — you can take good images of surfing in Teahupo’o,” he says, “All the rest is experience, timing and a bit of luck. This distinguishes a good shot from a great shot.” 4. What aspect of the photo does paragraph 2 focus on? A. Medina’s surfing poses. B. The strong ocean waves. C. The unique floating surfboard. D. Medina’s magic floating image. 5. What was the primary reason for the surfing events being held in Tahiti? A. Its pleasant climate conditions. B. Its breathtaking natural scenery. C. Its status as part of French Polynesia. D. Its large waves and complete facilities. 6. Which best describes Brouillet? A. Determined and lucky. B. Skilled and devoted. C. Modest and professional. D. Enthusiastic and confident. 7. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To praise a photojournalist. B. To introduce surfing sports. C. To record an athlete’s success. D. To promote the Olympic spirit. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了摄影记者拍摄下了一张冲浪照片，引起了互联网的关注。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“One photograph in particular has attracted the Internet’s attention this week.

His surfboard, which is still attached to his ankle, mirrors his body positioning above the wave.(本周，有一张照片尤其引起了互联网的关注。在这张照片中，巴西冲浪者加布里埃尔·梅迪纳似乎与他的冲浪板一起悬浮在海面上。他的右臂高举过头顶，梅迪纳向天空举起食指，似乎在空中漂浮。他的冲浪板仍然固定在脚踝上，反映了他在波浪上方的身体位置)”可知，第二段关注的是照片的梅迪纳的冲浪姿势。故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Tahiti is part of French Polynesia, and it’s reasonable the Olympic surfing events were being held there.(塔希提岛是法属波利尼西亚的一部分，奥运会冲浪比赛在那里举行是合理的)”可知，在塔希提岛举办冲浪比赛的主要原因是它作为法属波利尼西亚一部分的地位。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“It wasn’t hard to take the picture. It was more about anticipating the moment and where Gabriel would kick off the wave.(拍这张照片并不难。这更多的是关于期待时刻，以及加布里埃尔将在哪里掀起浪潮)”以及最后一段“Even facing all the admiration and attention, Brouillet joked on social media, “Well hum. I just pushed the right button this time. To be fair, if all conditions are met — weather, waves, light, if the boat driver is in the right position, and if you know how to use your camera — you can take good images of surfing in Teahupo’o,” he says, “All the rest is experience, timing and a bit of luck. This distinguishes a good shot from a great shot.”(即使面对所有的钦佩和关注，布鲁耶还是在社交媒体上开玩笑说：“嗯哼。这次我只是按对了按钮。公平地说，如果所有的条件都满足了——天气、海浪、光线，如果船夫在正确的位置，如果你知道如何使用你的相机——你就可以在Teahupo 'o拍出漂亮的冲浪照片，”他说，“剩下的就是经验、时机和一点运气。这就是一个好镜头和一个伟大镜头的区别。”)”可知，布鲁耶谦虚、专业。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“One photograph in particular has attracted the Internet’s attention this week.(本周，有一张照片尤其引起了互联网的关注)”以及第三段“Jérôme Brouillet, a photojournalist, caught the great moment.

At the same time, the southeastern US is getting smoke from Mexico, where drought (干旱) conditions have been fueling fires. Last year, Canada’s record 2023 wildfire season introduced millions of Americans across the Midwest and northeastern states to the health threats of wildfire smoke, with air quality warnings that reached levels never seen there before. Professional baseball games were postponed and the skies in New York City turned orange, at times exposing millions of people to the worst air quality in the world. In some regions, the smoke hung on for days. Hotter, drier conditions, coupled with dry grasses and underbrush that built up over decades of fire control, have made large wildfires more common. Canada is experiencing a second consecutive (连续) extremely dry year in 2024, and it is also facing the re-emergence of fires that burnt underground through the winter. In May, 2024, smoke from fires in British Columbia and Alberta reached unhealthy levels from Montana to Wisconsin and began to spread south and east into the Midwest and Great Lakes region. The North American Seasonal Fire Assessment and Outlook for May through July highlights drought conditions in western Canada and Central America and higher than normal fire risk in both regions. More importantly, it notes the challenge of forecasting fire risk for later in the year as the El Niño climate pattern changes to La Niña in late summer. Computer simulations (模拟) of the future in a warming climate show there will be more smoky days, higher smoke concentrations, larger burned areas and higher carbon emissions from the fires — which further fuel climate change. In short, people will need to learn to live with wildfire smoke. It won't be every year, but it will be more common. 8. Why does the author mention “baseball games” and “the skies in New York”? A. To illustrate wildfires in Canada are a trend. B. To emphasize the consequences of wildfires. C. To show how scientists evaluate air quality. D. To explain the return of wildfires in Canada. 9. What makes predicting the fire risk more challenging this year? A. Constant drought conditions. B. Air pollution levels. C. Climate pattern changes. D. Larger burned areas. 10. Which statement does the author agree with concerning wildfire smoke? A. It will be a new normal. B. It relies on climate change. C. It can prevent La Niña. D. It means more burned areas. 11. What’s the text about? A. Canada’s wildfire issues. B. Wildfire smoke in America. C Canadian wildfires’ effects on US air quality. D. The risks of wildfires in Canada and America. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了加拿大野火对美国空气质量的影响。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段的“Last year, Canada’s record 2023 wildfire season introduced millions of Americans across the Midwest and northeastern states to the health threats of wildfire smoke, with air quality warnings that reached levels never seen there before. Professional baseball games were postponed and the skies in New York City turned orange, at times exposing millions of people to the worst air quality in the world. (去年，加拿大创纪录的2023年野火季节使中西部和东北部各州的数百万美国人意识到野火烟雾的健康威胁，空气质量警告达到了前所未有的水平。职业棒球比赛被推迟，纽约市的天空变成了橙色，有时数百万人暴露在世界上最糟糕的空气质量中)”可推知，作者提到“棒球比赛”和“纽约的天空”是为了强调加拿大野火的后果，特别是对空气质量的影响。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“More importantly, it notes the challenge of forecasting fire risk for later in the year as the El Niño climate pattern changes to La Niña in late summer.(更重要的是，报告指出，随着厄尔尼诺气候模式在夏末转变为拉尼娜，预测今年晚些时候的火灾风险面临挑战)”可知，气候模式的变化使得预测火灾风险变得更加困难。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Computer simulations (模拟) of the future in a warming climate show there will be more smoky days, higher smoke concentrations, larger burned areas and higher carbon emissions from the fires—which further fuel climate change. In short, people will need to learn to live with wildfire smoke. It won't be every year, but it will be more common.(对未来气候变暖的计算机模拟显示，将有更多的烟雾天、更高的烟雾浓度、更大的燃烧面积和更高的火灾碳排放，这进一步加剧了气候变化。简而言之，人们需要学会与野火烟雾共存。这不会每年都发生，但会更常见)”可知，野火烟雾在未来可能会变得更加普遍，因此作者认为这将成为人们生活中的新常态。故选A。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“Dozens of wildfires are burning across Canada in May 2024 and sending unhealthy smoke blowing into the northern US again. At the same time, the southeastern US is getting smoke from Mexico, where drought (干旱) conditions have been fueling fires.(2024年5月，加拿大各地发生了数十起野火，不健康的烟雾再次吹向美国北部。与此同时，美国东南部正从墨西哥吸入烟雾，那里的干旱条件一直在助长火灾)”可知，本文主要介绍了加拿大2023年野火季以及2024年因季度干旱和地下火灾造成的野火烟雾对美国空气质量造成的影响。故选C。 D When humans have conversations, we take turns speaking, sometimes even interrupting each other. Now, a study reports that chimps (黑猩猩) follow a similar communication pattern structured around back-and-forth, fast-paced turns. “Human conversation follows very strict rules of turn-taking that are homogeneous across cultures and languages,” says Gal Badihi, the first author of the study. ”We started to wonder whether chimp communication is governed by its own rules, or if the rules are similar to human conversation.“ To figure out whether these interactions are like human turn taking, Badihi and coworkers studied hundreds of hours of videos of 8,559 gestures from 252 individuals recorded by other multiple researchers across decades of fieldwork in East Africa. The scientists studied them, describing the precise movements each chimp made when gesturing, the response of other chimps, the duration of the gestures, and other details. They found that 14% of the recorded interactions included at least one response to a gesture, while some included as many as seven back-and-forth responses. Chimps took an average of 120 milliseconds to reply with a gesture, which is not all that different from the human average of 200 milliseconds. Chimp gestures are largely meant to convey requests, with “groom (梳理) me”, “follow me”, “give me” or “stop it” being common commands. The researchers witnessed a variety of gestured interactions, such as chimps asking to change spots during grooming sessions. They do them just like humans do. This is different from other animals like dogs, for example, because an exchange of barking could just be an automatic instinctive (本能) unlearned reaction, rather than a true response in a conversation. Another similarity researchers noticed is the slight difference in response time between chimp communities—a variation that also exists among different human cultures. ”Amazingly, they seem to share both our universal turn-taking timing and slight cultural differences,“ says researcher Cat Hobaiter. ”In humans, it is the Danish who are ‘slower’ responders, and in Eastern chimps that’s the Sonso community in Uganda.“ 12. What does the word “homogeneous” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Normal. B. Perfect. C. Vivid. D. Consistent. 13. How did Badihi’s team do the research on the interactions of chimps? A. By training them on site. B. By carrying out fieldwork. C. By analyzing ready-made data. D. By responding to their gestures. 14. What do scientists find about the gestures between chimps? A. They are intentional. B. They are similar to dogs’. C. They almost have no difference. D. They are formed naturally. 15. What can be inferred about the chimps in the Sonso community in Uganda? A. They communicate more effectively. B. They respond to others like the Danish. C. They avoid face-to-face conversations. D. They tend to learn language from humans. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了黑猩猩的交流规则是否与人类的交流规则相似。 【12题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第二段““Human conversation follows very strict rules of turn-taking that are homogeneous across cultures and languages,” says Gal Badihi, the first author of the study.”（“人类对话遵循非常严格的轮流规则，这些规则在不同文化和语言中都是homogeneous，”该研究的第一作者Gal Badihi说。）可知，人类对话遵循非常严格的轮流规则，所以规则在不同文化和语言中都是一致的。所以划线词为“一致的”。故选D项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Badihi and coworkers studied hundreds of hours of videos of 8,559 gestures from 252 individuals recorded by other multiple researchers across decades of fieldwork in East Africa”（Badihi和同事们研究了数百小时的视频，其中包括252个人的8559个手势，这些视频是由其他多名研究人员在东非数十年的田野调查中记录的）可知，Badihi的团队通过分析现成的数据进行研究。故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Chimp gestures are largely meant to convey requests”（黑猩猩手势主要是为了传达请求）可知，黑猩猩的手势是有意图的。故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“In humans, it is the Danish who are ‘slower’ responders, and in Eastern chimps that’s the Sonso community in Uganda”（在人类中，丹麦人反应较慢，而在东部黑猩猩中，乌干达的 Sonso 社区反应较慢）可知，乌干达Sonso社区的黑猩猩在回应他人时像丹麦人一样较慢。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。 We have many hands-on hobbies to choose from in our daily life.

Some students strongly advocated its usage, claiming that it could offer individualized learning paths tailored to each student’s needs, thus enhancing efficiency and effectiveness. However, those against it expressed worries that over-reliance on AI might lead to a decline in students’ independent thinking skills.

She was a ray of sunshine and always had a kind word for her server. Rain didn’t always visit the restaurant alone. She and her husband had eaten at the restaurant when it opened and became regulars. It was the venue of their 30th wedding anniversary too and they danced till late into the night. Unfortunately, her husband took ill about a year later and died. It was a terrible time for Rain. Their son and daughter were working and settled in New Zealand, who wanted Rain to come and live with them so that they could take care of her. However, Rain refused because she loved her hometown very much. But she was so sad because of the passing of her husband. Gradually, she didn’t want any visitors, nor did she go out. After Sampson, the owner of the restaurant, learnt what happened to Rain, he personally wrote a letter to Rain inviting her to his restaurant for free meals every day and designated waiter Robert to serve her specifically. It was the encouragement she needed to get past her sorrow. Though it wasn’t easy, Rain took a brave step. As she sat at the table by the window, Sampson sat with her and told her that though busy since he was investing in a big project, he assured, “I`ll be always with you because I’ve known you for over 30 years.” Rain was deeply moved. It was a great evening and the beginning of a new chapter in her life. Then one day, Rain received a call from the hospital. It was the test result she had a week earlier. She went to the hospital quickly, where the doctor informed Rain that she had blood cancer. She asked how serious it was and how long she had. The doctor told Rain it was in the final stages and she had between 6 months to 1 year left. 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。 After Rain’s visit to the hospital, she went straight to the restaurant. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hearing Robert’s words about Sampson’s terrible situation, Rain took out a pen and a piece of paper. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 After Rain’s visit to the hospital, she went straight to the restaurant. She sat down at her table by the window and Robert immediately brought in the specials of the day as quickly as possible. Rain smiled at him as usual and made a small talk with him. In their conversation, Robert told Rain that their boss Sampson lost a lot of money due to his investment project not going smoothly, which caused his restaurant to be unable to continue operating. In fact, Sampson had been determined to close the restaurant next month. “If that were the case, we would soon be unemployed,” Robert said sadly. Hearing Robert’s words about Sampson’s terrible situation, Rain took out a pen and a piece of paper. She wrote something on the paper, and asked Robert to give it to Sampson at once. Seeing the note, curious, Sampson opened the note, which read, “To Sampson and all the restaurant staff: I’ve loved coming to this restaurant for over 30 years. I’ve had suck at time here. Even in bad times, you always supported me. Now that I’m old and ill, I’d like to express my deepest gratitude to you by leaving my 462.1 million dollars for you. Reading this, Sampson burst into tears. He regarded Rain as his family member, and so did Rain. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Rain是一位88岁的老妇人，是一家餐厅的常客，所有的员工都很喜欢她。她是一缕阳光，总是对她的服务员说好话。在得知了其孤独处境后，餐厅老板Sampson亲自给Rain写了一封信，邀请她每天到他的餐厅免费用餐。后来Rain得了癌症，在餐厅她写下了一封感谢信，帮助餐厅度过了难关。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Rain去了医院之后，她直接去了餐厅”可知，第一段可描写Rain去餐厅以后得知餐厅要关门的消息。 ②由第二段首句内容“听到Robert讲述Sampson的可怕处境，Rain拿出一支笔和一张纸”可知，第二段可描写Rain写信给餐厅老板Sampson，来激励对方。 2.续写线索：去餐厅——被服务员接待——告知餐厅要倒闭——得知老板处境——写信留下遗产 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①告诉：tell/inform ②导致：cause/lead to ③继续：continue /go on 情绪类 ①决心：determined/resolved ②感激：gratitude/appreciation 【点睛】[高分句型1] “If that were the case, we would soon be unemployed,” Robert said sadly.
