B “When I first started learning calligraphy, I just copied the teacher’s strokes (笔画) , and my work was ugly. But when the brush was in the teacher’s hand, it turned into Harry Potter’s magic wand (魔杖) ,” said Aryan Mohammd, 27, from Afghanistan. Currently studying as a graduate student at the Central University of Finance and Economies in Beijing, Aryan has lived in China for six years.

Calligraphy helps him to both understand each stroke and the Chinese attitude towards life. The horizontal, vertical (垂直的) and left and right falling strokes on the paper represent Chinese people's unique symbols and memories. They are also the hidden keys to better understanding Chinese culture. “I have learned the saying that all forms of Chinese art are some extensions of calligraphy,” Aryan said. He has also developed a more mature personality along the way. He has become calmer when facing difficulties through his new hobby. Calligraphy offers him a special personal space and gives him strength when he feels stressed. Ultimately, it helps him to find inner peace. 4.

He found calligraphy an easy hobby and mastered it quickly. 7 What’s the best title of the text? A. The Evolution of Chinese Calligraphy B. The Magic of Learning Chinese Calligraphy C. The Internationalization of Chinese Calligraphy D. The Increasing Popularity of Chinese Calligraphy C As concerns about the environmental impact of food production continue to grow researchers and policymakers are exploring novel ways to produce protein more sustainably. One option that has been gaining attention in recent years is the use of insects as a food source. The idea of eating crickets (蟋蟀) or mealworms doesn’t give many Western consumers a good appetite. A new study, presented at this year’s European Congress on Obesity (ECO) in Venice, Italy, surveyed 603 UK adults about their attitudes towards consuming insects and revealed that only 13% of respondents were willing to regularly eat insects, while 47 percent said they would not be willing to do so. However, it suggests that mixing insect-based ingredients (配料) with familiar foods could be key to overcoming the biggest barrier and making this eco-friendly protein source more palatable. So, what makes insects such a promising alternative to traditional livestock, such as cows and sheep? Some insect proteins, such as ground crickets or freeze-dried mealworms, are cheaper and often have a lower fat content. Additionally, insect farming requires less land, water, and feed than traditional livestock and has less environmental impact. The biggest factor is that they are a rich source of protein and micro-nutrients, making them a potentially valuable tool in preventing people from both being too fat and under nutrition. The study found that ideas about insects’ taste or sensory properties were generally unfavorable, with participants anticipating lower levels of enjoyment, liking, or sweetness and higher levels of saltiness and bitterness. However, the researchers note that attitudes towards eating insects can change over time, pointing to the example of lobster (龙虾) . Once considered a poor man’s food, these are now considered a delicacy in many parts of the world despite their insect-like appearance. To help change attitudes towards insect-based foods, the researchers suggest that more needs to be done to let consumers be well-informed of the nutritional and environmental benefits of eating insects. 8. What does the underlined word “palatable” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Profitable. B. Authoritative. C. Affordable D. Delicious. 9. What can be the main cause of insects’ likely replacing traditional livestock? A. The raising costs. B. The rich nutrition. C. The low fat content. D. The eco-friendly features 10. Why do the researchers mention lobsters? A. To make a comparison. B. To highlight a problem. C. To prove their prediction. D. To criticize an argument. 11. What is the author likely to write about after the last paragraph? A How to raise insects effectively. B. Varieties of insect-based foods. C. How to make insects more appealing D. Education of consumers eating insects. D Do you think artificial intelligence (AI) should be banned in schools? To improve the new development of education, experts and officials believe that generative AI tools should be safely and appropriately applied in schools rather than being banned. Zheng Qinghua, president of Tongji University, emphasized the importance of taking the opportunities and meeting challenges presented by AI-empowered education. He suggested that young people should be guided to improve their understanding of the knowledge created by technology. Meanwhile, their motivation for learning should also be encouraged. AI technology has become increasingly important for getting and spreading knowledge, impacting teaching, learning, and school management. Zheng emphasized the widespread use of various models such as Emie Bot, an AI chatbot product developed by Baidu, among college students in China. The tool can write essays, solve science problems, and help students with assignments and tests. Furthermore, a survey conducted by the online learning platform Study showed that 89 percent of students had used ChatGPT for homework assistance, raising concerns about academic honesty. Instead of merely relying on AI to provide answers or complete homework and tests, people should focus on using AI to develop students’ innovation and integrate professional skills, enabling them to solve real-world problems, said Zheng. According to Colin Bailey, president of Queen Mary University of London, as ChatGPT grows rapidly, the focus should not be on whether to use AI in education, but on how to use it safely, effectively, and appropriately. Banning AI in schools is not the solution, Bailey concluded. Bailey also warmed about the potential harm caused by poorly designed AI. Efforts to regulate (监管) AI have come out around the world, such as the Blueprint for an AI Bill of Rights in the US and a pro-innovation approach to AI regulation in the UK. In China, measures for managing generative AI services have been carried out. Chen Jie, vice-minister of education, emphasized the need for cooperation among education and research institutions to address AI-related issues like privacy leaks and bias (偏见) . 12. What is Zheng Qinghua’s attitude towards using AI in education? A. Doubtful. B. Tolerant. C. Favorable D. Unclear. 13. What is the primary concern raised by the survey conducted by Study? A. The privacy leaks of using AI tools. B. The students’ reliance on AI tools to learn C. Dishonest behavior in the students’ homework D. The students’ preference for AI chatbots to human teachers 14. What is Colin Bailey’s suggestion on AI tools in schools? A. Applying them in a proper and efficient way. B. Protecting them from the potential harm. C. Prohibiting them due to academic issues D. Using them without restrictions. 15. What’s the main idea of the last paragraph? A. The unique approach of China in regulating AI B. The global agreement on the ban of AI in education C. The international cooperation in addressing AI-related issues D. The worldwide efforts to establish regulations on AI services. 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 makes people gain weight? This seems like a simple enough question to answer. ___16___ However, the science behind weight problems is more complicated than we think. As we know, what we eat greatly affects our weight. It is widely accepted that people have 100% control over what they eat and how much they eat. This, however, is only partly true People form habits around food at a young age. ___17___ Meanwhile, the serving size and the background music can both affect how much we eat.

As we get fatter, the levels of leptin in our bodies rise. Our brains are told not to eat all the time. In the end, they would no longer trust leptin and would stop responding to its “warnings”. When we start to lose weight, leptin levels drop. ___20___ Now you know why fat people often have a tough time losing weight. They may have tried very hard, but their bodies are working against their will. A. Our brains change as we have food. B. If we eat a lot and lack exercise, we will become fat. C. Our brains think we are hungry and make us find food. D. Also, various hormones tell our brains whether we are hungry. E. They may rarely touch vegetables while overeating fried chicken. F.

One option that has been gaining attention in recent years is the use of insects as a food source. The idea of eating crickets (蟋蟀) or mealworms doesn’t give many Western consumers a good appetite. A new study, presented at this year’s European Congress on Obesity (ECO) in Venice, Italy, surveyed 603 UK adults about their attitudes towards consuming insects and revealed that only 13% of respondents were willing to regularly eat insects, while 47 percent said they would not be willing to do so. However, it suggests that mixing insect-based ingredients (配料) with familiar foods could be key to overcoming the biggest barrier and making this eco-friendly protein source more palatable. So, what makes insects such a promising alternative to traditional livestock, such as cows and sheep? Some insect proteins, such as ground crickets or freeze-dried mealworms, are cheaper and often have a lower fat content. Additionally, insect farming requires less land, water, and feed than traditional livestock and has less environmental impact. The biggest factor is that they are a rich source of protein and micro-nutrients, making them a potentially valuable tool in preventing people from both being too fat and under nutrition. The study found that ideas about insects’ taste or sensory properties were generally unfavorable, with participants anticipating lower levels of enjoyment, liking, or sweetness and higher levels of saltiness and bitterness. However, the researchers note that attitudes towards eating insects can change over time, pointing to the example of lobster (龙虾) . Once considered a poor man’s food, these are now considered a delicacy in many parts of the world despite their insect-like appearance. To help change attitudes towards insect-based foods, the researchers suggest that more needs to be done to let consumers be well-informed of the nutritional and environmental benefits of eating insects. 8. What does the underlined word “palatable” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Profitable. B. Authoritative. C. Affordable D. Delicious. 9. What can be the main cause of insects’ likely replacing traditional livestock? A. The raising costs. B. The rich nutrition. C. The low fat content. D. The eco-friendly features 10. Why do the researchers mention lobsters? A. To make a comparison. B. To highlight a problem. C. To prove their prediction. D. To criticize an argument. 11. What is the author likely to write about after the last paragraph? A. How to raise insects effectively. B. Varieties of insect-based foods. C. How to make insects more appealing D. Education of consumers eating insects. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。研究人员正在努力使昆虫成为人们饮食的一部分，但是如何打开人们对它们的食欲是最大障碍。 【8题详解】 词义猜测题。根据画线词上文“The idea of eating crickets or mealworms doesn’t give many Western consumers a good appetite.(吃蟋蟀或粉虫的想法不会让许多西方消费者胃口大开。)”可知，很多西方消费者不喜欢吃蟋蟀或者粉虫；再结合该词前部分“However, it suggests that mixing insect-based ingredients (配料) with familiar foods could be key to overcoming the biggest barrier (然而，它表明，将昆虫成分与熟悉的食物混合可能是克服最大障碍的关键)”可知，研究人员认为：在熟悉的食物中加入昆虫成分可能是克服这个障碍的关键，从而使这种昆虫食物更加美味。所以划线词palatable为“美味的”之意。故选 D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The biggest factor is that they are a rich source of protein and micronutrients, making them a potentially valuable tool in preventing people from both being too fat and under nutrition.(最大的因素是，它们是蛋白质和微量营养素的丰富来源，使它们成为防止人们过于肥胖和营养不足的潜在有价值的工具。)”可知，昆虫食物富有营养是它成为人类食物的主要原因。故选 B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“However, the researchers note that attitudes towards eating insects can change over time, pointing to the example of lobster. Once considered a poor man’s food, these are now considered a delicacy in many parts of the world despite their insect-like appearance.(然而，研究人员指出，人们对吃昆虫的态度会随着时间的推移而改变，以龙虾为例。这些曾经被认为是穷人的食物，现在在世界上许多地方被认为是美味佳肴，尽管它们看起来像昆虫。)”可推知，研究人员预测昆虫食物会像龙虾一样成为人们喜爱的食物，研究人员提及龙虾是为了证明他们的预测。故选 C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“To help change attitudes towards insect-based foods, the re- searchers suggest that more needs to be done to let consumers be well-informed of the nutritional and environmental benefits of eating insects.(为了帮助改变人们对昆虫食品的态度，研究人员建议，需要做更多的工作，让消费者充分了解食用昆虫的营养和环境效益。)”可推知，作者很有可能接下来谈：教育消费者食用昆虫。故选D。 D Do you think artificial intelligence (AI) should be banned in schools? To improve the new development of education, experts and officials believe that generative AI tools should be safely and appropriately applied in schools rather than being banned. Zheng Qinghua, president of Tongji University, emphasized the importance of taking the opportunities and meeting challenges presented by AI-empowered education. He suggested that young people should be guided to improve their understanding of the knowledge created by technology. Meanwhile, their motivation for learning should also be encouraged. AI technology has become increasingly important for getting and spreading knowledge, impacting teaching, learning, and school management. Zheng emphasized the widespread use of various models such as Emie Bot, an AI chatbot product developed by Baidu, among college students in China. The tool can write essays, solve science problems, and help students with assignments and tests. Furthermore, a survey conducted by the online learning platform Study showed that 89 percent of students had used ChatGPT for homework assistance, raising concerns about academic honesty. Instead of merely relying on AI to provide answers or complete homework and tests, people should focus on using AI to develop students’ innovation and integrate professional skills, enabling them to solve real-world problems, said Zheng. According to Colin Bailey, president of Queen Mary University of London, as ChatGPT grows rapidly, the focus should not be on whether to use AI in education, but on how to use it safely, effectively, and appropriately. Banning AI in schools is not the solution, Bailey concluded. Bailey also warmed about the potential harm caused by poorly designed AI. Efforts to regulate (监管) AI have come out around the world, such as the Blueprint for an AI Bill of Rights in the US and a pro-innovation approach to AI regulation in the UK. In China, measures for managing generative AI services have been carried out. Chen Jie, vice-minister of education, emphasized the need for cooperation among education and research institutions to address AI-related issues like privacy leaks and bias (偏见) . 12. What is Zheng Qinghua’s attitude towards using AI in education? A. Doubtful. B. Tolerant. C. Favorable D. Unclear. 13. What is the primary concern raised by the survey conducted by Study? A. The privacy leaks of using AI tools. B. The students’ reliance on AI tools to learn C. Dishonest behavior in the students’ homework D. The students’ preference for AI chatbots to human teachers 14. What is Colin Bailey’s suggestion on AI tools in schools? A. Applying them in a proper and efficient way. B. Protecting them from the potential harm. C. Prohibiting them due to academic issues D. Using them without restrictions. 15. What’s the main idea of the last paragraph? A. The unique approach of China in regulating AI B. The global agreement on the ban of AI in education C. The international cooperation in addressing AI-related issues D. The worldwide efforts to establish regulations on AI services. 【答案】12. C 13. C 14. A 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章通过引用专家和官员的观点, 探讨了人工智能（AI）在教育中的应用及其带来的机遇和挑战, 并对 AI技术在教育中的使用提出了建议和规范。同时, 文章也提到了全球范围内对 AI 进行监管的努力。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Zheng Qinghua, president of Tongji University, emphasized the importance of taking the opportunities and meeting challenges presented by AI-empowered education. (同济大学校长Zheng Qinghua强调，要抓住机遇，迎接人工智能教育带来的挑战。)”以及第三段“ Zheng emphasized the widespread use of various models such as Emie Bot, an AI chatbot product developed by Baidu, among college students in China.(郑强调了各种模型在中国大学生中的广泛使用，例如百度开发的人工智能聊天机器人产品Emie Bot。)”可推知, Zheng Qinghua强调了AI在教育中的重要性，以及对于在教育中使用人工智能持支持态度。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Furthermore, a survey conducted by the online learning platform Study showed that 89 percent of students had used ChatGPT for homework assistance, raising concerns about academic honesty.( 此外，在线学习平台Study进行的一项调查显示，89%的学生曾使用聊天答疑工具帮助完成作业，这引发了人们对学术诚信的担忧。)”可知, 调查主要关注的是学生在作业中使用AI工具的不诚实行为。故选 C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“the focus should not be on whether to use AI in education, but on how to use it safely, effectively, and appropriately. (重点不应该是是否在教育中使用人工智能，而应该是如何安全、有效和适当地使用它。)”可知，Colin Bailey认为重点不应放在是否在教育中使用人工智能，而应放在如何安全、有效和适当地使用它。故选 A。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Efforts to regulate (监管) AI have come out around the world, such as the Blueprint for an AI Bill of Rights in the US and a pro-innovation approach to AI regulation in the UK.( 世界各地都在努力监管人工智能，比如美国的《人工智能权利法案蓝图》(Blueprint for AI Bill of Rights)，英国的人工智能监管支持创新。)”可推知, 本段主要介绍了全球在建立人工智能服务监管规定方面做出的努力。D选项“The worldwide efforts to establish regulations on AI services.( 世界范围内建立人工智能服务法规的努力。)”概括文章主要内容，符合段旨。故选D。 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 makes people gain weight? This seems like a simple enough question to answer. ___16___ However, the science behind weight problems is more complicated than we think. As we know, what we eat greatly affects our weight. It is widely accepted that people have 100% control over what they eat and how much they eat. This, however, is only partly true People form habits around food at a young age. ___17___ Meanwhile, the serving size and the background music can both affect how much we eat. Our bodies themselves can decide whether we are more likely to gain weight or lose weight. ___18___ If we often have delicious food over time, our brains will change. Compared to people of normal weight, fat people feel more excited when they see delicious food. ___19___ Ghrelin or hunger hormones (激素) , for example, tells the brain that the body wants food. Leptin (瘦素) , meanwhile, tells the brain that it’s time to stop eating. Ghrelin and leptin help us to maintain a healthy weight. But sometimes, they may work improperly. As we get fatter, the levels of leptin in our bodies rise. Our brains are told not to eat all the time. In the end, they would no longer trust leptin and would stop responding to its “warnings”. When we start to lose weight, leptin levels drop. ___20___ Now you know why fat people often have a tough time losing weight. They may have tried very hard, but their bodies are working against their will. A. Our brains change as we have food. B. If we eat a lot and lack exercise, we will become fat. C. Our brains think we are hungry and make us find food. D. Also, various hormones tell our brains whether we are hungry. E. They may rarely touch vegetables while overeating fried chicken. F. Additionally, our weight determines the levels of ghrelin and leptin. G. Scientists found that the tastier the food, the more excited our brains get. 【答案】16. B 17. E 18. G 19. D 20. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了减肥困难及其原因。 【16题详解】 根据上文“This seems like a simple enough question to answer.(这似乎是一个很简单的问题。)”和下文“However, the science behind weight problems is more complicated than we think.(然而，体重问题背后的科学比我们想象的要复杂得多。)”可知，前文提到“这个问题看似简单”，接着用“However”转折，说明实际情况并非如此简单。空处应该是一个更具体、更全面的解释使人们发胖的原因，并且与下文形成转折关系。B项：If we eat a lot and lack exercise, we will become fat.(如果我们吃得很多又缺乏运动，我们就会变胖。)符合语境。故选B。 【17题详解】 上文提到“People form habits around food at a young age.(人们在年轻时就会形成与食物相关的习惯。)”接着，E选项中的“They may rarely touch vegetables while overeating fried chicken.(他们可能很少接触蔬菜，而过量吃炸鸡。)”进一步解释了这种习惯的具体表现，即他们可能在吃炸鸡时很少吃蔬菜。这符合前文提到的“与食物相关的习惯”的语境。故选E。 【18题详解】 根据下文“If we often have delicious food over time, our brains will change. Compared to people of normal weight, fat people feel more excited when they see delicious food.(如果我们经常吃美味的食物，随着时间的推移，我们的大脑会发生变化。与体重正常的人相比，肥胖的人在看到美味的食物时会感到更加兴奋。)”可知，下文具体说明了人们的大脑在遇到美味的食物时会兴奋。G项中的“the tastier the food”与下文中“delicious food”对应，“the more excited”与下文中“feel more excited”对应。G项：Scientists found that the tastier the food, the more excited our brains get.(科学家们发现，食物越美味，我们的大脑就越兴奋。)符合语境。故选G。 【19题详解】 空处为段落主题句。根据下文“Ghrelin or hunger hormones (激素) , for example, tells the brain that the body wants food. Leptin (瘦素) , meanwhile, tells the brain that it’s time to stop eating.(例如，胃饥饿素或称饥饿激素会告诉大脑身体需要食物。而与此同时，瘦素会告诉大脑是时候停止进食了。)”可知，下文提到了两种激素，它们都与饥饿感有关，因此可以推断出前文应该提到与饥饿感相关的激素。D项：Also, various hormones tell our brains whether we are hungry.(此外，各种激素告诉我们的大脑我们是否饿了。)符合语境。故选D。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Leptin (瘦素) , meanwhile, tells the brain that it’s time to stop eating.(而与此同时，瘦素会告诉大脑是时候停止进食了。)”和“When we start to lose weight, leptin levels drop.(当我们开始减肥时，瘦素水平会下降。)”可知，瘦素是一种告诉大脑停止进食的激素，当它的水平下降时，大脑会认为我们还在饥饿状态，从而让我们继续寻找食物C项：Our brains think we are hungry and make us find food.(我们的大脑认为我们饿了，让我们去找食物。)符合语境。故选C。 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、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 As a child, I loved drawing on our walls.

On a fateful day, his fortune smiled upon him when his magnet (磁铁) picked up a safe packed with thousands of dollars. To the astonishment of all, he started a journey to find the lawful owner of the safe and returned it to its rightful destination. George made his unbelievable discovery one day when he was searching the river with his father, Kevin. They both enjoy magnet fishing: using a strong magnet to pull lost metal objects out of river and ocean depths. While most of these treasure hunters find common items like cans, nails and bicycles, some lucky people have been able to find something surprising. When George and Kevin’s magnet found a heavy object, the curious pair pulled it out to see what they had discovered. They removed years of river sand and mud from a small safe and forced it open. Inside, they found some wet business documents, an old wallet and a bag containing $2, 500. Further check discovered that the safe also contained several bank cards, which listed the name they needed to track down the rightful owner. After some online searching, they learned that a local businessman of the same name, Robert Smith, reported his safe missing 22 years ago. George and Kevin helped right the wrong 22 years later. George and Kevin found Robert through his current business. Shocked that someone had found his safe 22 years after it had been lost, Robert made plans to meet George and Kevin in his office. He was thankful for their effort in finding his safe and was interested in meeting the young man who had made such a moral decision. 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。 The owner of the safe told them the story of how it got lost. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Robert was so impressed with George’s honesty that he offered him a job. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 The owner of the safe told them the story of how it got lost. Back in 1992, during a canoe trip with his family, a sudden storm capsized their vessel. In the chaos, the safe, which contained his life savings and important documents, slipped into the raging river. Despite exhaustive searches, it remained lost, a bitter reminder of that fateful day. Robert expressed his gratitude, not just for the return of his property, but for the restoration of memories thought forever gone. He marveled at George’s sense of responsibility and morality in an era where such virtues were increasingly rare. Robert was so impressed with George’s honesty that he offered him a job. Seeing George’s keen eye for detail and unwavering integrity, he envisioned him as an invaluable asset to his company. The offer was more than just a position; it was a recognition of George’s character. Robert believed that such qualities were the cornerstone of any successful business. George, overwhelmed by the unexpected opportunity, eagerly accepted. He saw it as a chance to not only earn a living but also to learn from a man he now greatly admired. George realized that the discovery and subsequent employment became a testament to the power of honesty and the transformative effects of doing good deeds. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，文章讲述了十七岁的乔治·格兰德在河边搜寻时意外发现了一个装满现金的保险箱，尽管面临巨大的财富，他仍决定寻找并归还给失主罗伯特·史密斯。这一善举不仅帮助罗伯特找回了失散22年的财产和回忆，也赢得了罗伯特的深深敬意和感激。作为对乔治诚实品质的认可，罗伯特还为他提供了一份工作机会。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“保险箱的主人罗伯特向他们讲述了保险箱是如何丢失的。”可知，第一段可描写罗伯特丢失保险箱的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“乔治的诚实给罗伯特留下了深刻的印象，他给了他一份工作。”可知，第二段可描写罗伯特看到了乔治的正直和诚实，为他提供了一个职位，乔治也接受了该工作职位，以及阐述乔治通过该段经历明白的道理即诚实的力量能够带来好运。 2.续写线索： 罗伯特丢失保险箱——罗伯特的痛苦回忆——罗伯特对乔治的认可——为乔治提供一份工作——乔治接受工作机会——乔治的个人感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①弄翻：capsize/knock over ②.赞叹：marvel/praise ③.认为：envision…as/regard…as 情绪类 ①.感谢：express one’s gratitude/show one’s appreciation ②.热切地：eagerly/passionately 【点睛】[高分句型1].
