During this time, you will have a full day’s experience as a tribal Maasai. This is a deep cultural experience that anyone and any group can enjoy. During the day you will be separated into two different groups, a group for men and a group for women. Some of the activities that boys will take part in are: •preparing beds •dancing in different places around the community •looking after goats (山羊) •finding natural medicines in the forest •meeting with different families •drinking medicines that are known to make you stronger Some of the activities that women will take part in are: •meeting and discussing family and tribal matters with each other •going to get water •collecting firewood •milking cattle (牛) •preparing and cooking food •singing songs with other women •building houses •making bracelets from beads (用珠子做手镯) If you choose to sleep overnight, you will sleep in a traditional Maasai boma, a small house, or you can sleep out by the fire and enjoy stories told by the villagers. Here are the details of the Maasai Tribe Visit: Full-day experience: •Price: $140 per person •Includes 2 meals •Monday-Sunday Full-day and overnight experience: •Price: $200 per person •Includes 3 meals •Monday-Sunday 1.

B Last week, the Los Angeles Unified School District became the largest in US to approve (批准) a districtwide cellphone ban. For teachers, this is great news. For many kids, it’s less welcome. Parents, meanwhile, are conflicted, caught between wanting their children to learn without distraction(分心)and worried about the loss of the constant and easy communication to which they’ve grown used. Smartphones undoubtedly hold back students’ attention to solving for x or close reading a Shakespearean poem. A 2023 study by Common Sense Media revealed that teens check their phones more than 100 times a day on average. On top of the hundreds of notifications lighting up screens and interrupting class lectures, teens now spend 4.8 hours on social media each day. The relationship between screen exposure(使用屏幕)and mental well-being remains unclear, but some studies suggest there is cause for concern. Yet many parents remain careful of banning phones during the school day. They are afraid that doing so would cut communication between them and their children —not only when they want to organize pickups or drop-offs but also in the event of an emergency. Schools have managed to function without smartphones for centuries. For concerned parents, equipping their children with traditional cellphones, these days dubbed “dumbphones,” might be the best option; schools might consider whether selective (选择性的) phone bans that permit such devices could work. Or parents could get even more old-fashioned and simply call their school’s office when necessary. The next question for schools is how to ban cellphones. A popular option is requiring the use of magnetic (有磁性) bags that lock in the morning and unlock when the final bell rings, or in the event of an emergency. When smartphone bans are done right, they can make a big difference. At Bethlehem Central High School near Albany, N.Y., for example, academic progress has improved since applying a ban last fall. Students are less distracted and more tuned into learning. Parents have even said they’re surprised at the success of the newly phone-free school. 4. What does the underlined word “conflicted” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Not knowing what to do. B. Very happy with sth. C. Not good at some things. D. Worried about sth. 5. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. How to learn Shakespeare’s plays and poems in school. B. Screen exposure does make people mentally unhealthy. C. Heavy usage of smartphones seriously affect students. D. Students in USA love phones more than ones in China. 6. What schools can do for concerned parents? A. Ban the parents’ own smartphones. B. Selectively ban some students’ phones. C. Allow students carry dumbphones. D. Encourage them to shout outside window. 7. Why is Bethlehem Central High School mentioned in the last paragraph? A. Students there are allowed to use smartphones. B. To show smartphone bans are beneficial. C. Parents there are less distracted and surprised. D. Just to praise the school’s achievements. C Profits at Netflix have increased as the world’s largest streaming (在线播放) service added millions of subscribers (订户). The entertainment giant added 9.3 million new viewers in the latest quarter — more than expected by analysts on Wall Street — leaving it with a record 269.6 million worldwide. "We’re off to a good start in 2024,” the company said. Its shares (股票) dropped 2% yesterday, however, after rising by almost a third since January. Profits at Netflix rose 15% to $9.4bn (£7.7bn) in the three months to 31 March. Net income (净收入) jumped 79% to $2.3bn over the same period. Netflix pioneered the streaming revolution. Hollywood’s established giants, from Disney to Warner Bros, are still struggling to catch up and turn a profit on their own competitor digital services. A growth in subscribers early in the pandemic paused in 2022 as limits were lifted. But shares in Netflix have increased over the past two years as it shored up growth by forbidding password-sharing and introducing a cheaper level of its service, with advertisements. Netflix has also broadened to live events, including coverage of World Wrestling Entertainment, and videogaming. In a letter to investors on Wednesday night, the company announced it would stop reporting how many members it has from next year. As it has regained momentum (发展势头) following its post-pandemic growth struggles, Netflix has been trying to direct Wall Street’s focus away from its subscriber growth numbers， arguing that other financial things including sales were more important. Forecasting sales growth of up to 15% this year, the company said to achieve “healthy” long-term growth it will need to “improve the variety and quality” of movies, shows and games on its platform; make it easier for users to find new series; and build its ad-funded level into a “more meaningful contributor” to its business. 8. What do we know about Netflix? A. Its net income jumped 15% to $2. 3bn. B. It has 9. 3 million subscribers in the world. C. Its profits rose by $9. 4bn in the first quarter. D. It is the biggest streaming service worldwide. 9. Why did the company say “We’re off to a good start in 2024”? A. It pioneered the great streaming change in the first 3 months. B. Its growth in subscribers paused after the limits were lifted. C. It gained more subscribers and more profits in the first quarter. D. Its shares dropped 2% yesterday after falling by almost a third. 10. Why does the company plan to stop reporting how many subscribers it has? A. It has reported wrong numbers in the past years. B. It is addicted to videogaming and hurting its users. C. It lost so many users in the first 3 months worldwide. D. It wants to highlight its more important financial parts. 11. What will Netflix do according to the last paragraph? A. It will improve the variety and quality of their products. B. It wants to make it easier to find more new profits. C. It has to make sales grow up to 15% during this quarter. D. It intends to achieve unhealthy long term growth. D Good news for lazy gardeners: one labour-saving change could almost double the number of butterflies in your garden, according to a new scientific study — let the grass grow long. Now an analyses of six years of butterfly sightings across 600 British gardens has provided evidence that wilder lawns increase numbers.The benefits of leaving areas of grass long were most obvious in gardens within intensively (密集) farmed landscapes, with up to 93% more butterflies found and a greater range of species. Gardens with long grass in urban areas showed an 18% increase. “We wanted to be able to give tried and tested gardening advice that will benefit butterflies, as we know lots of people want to help,” said Dr Richard Fox, the head of science at Butterfly Conservation and a co-author of the study, published in the journal Science of the Total Environment. “This study proves, for the first time, that allowing a patch of grass to grow long will attract more butterflies into your garden,” he said. According to the study, long grass in gardens attracts more butterfly species whose caterpillars feed on grasses. Fox said this suggested the lift in population was not simply because long grass provided more nectar (花蜜) from wildflowers within it, but because butterflies were seeking or actually breeding (繁殖) in rewilded lawns. Fox said: “What people are doing with long grass in gardens is creating potential or actual breeding habitat. In order to make an impact on the bio-diversity crisis we need to be creating places where butterflies and other wildlife can breed.” If you have a patch of long grass you may have grasshoppers, beetles and ant hills as well — there will be all these spin-offs (派生物).” He added. 12. What do we know about the study? A. The researchers viewed 600 Americans gardens. B. Only more butterflies were found in the gardens. C. Dr. Richard Fox alone completed the research. D. It proves wilder lawns attracts more butterflies. 13. Why do more butterfly species go to wilder fields? A. They can eat caterpillars on the long grass. B. Wild flowers create a beautiful environment. C. Butterflies will easily breed babies there. D. Wild grass can itself provide sweet nectar. 14. Which is the most suitable title for the passage? A. Long grass brings more butterflies. B. Lazy gardeners have a good harvest. C. More sighting of butterflies in cities. D. A good labour-saving change in factory. 15. What do Fox’s words mean in the last two paragraphs? A. If you are lazy, your vegetables will be eaten by insects. B. The effortless change helps solve the bio-diversity crisis. C. We should protect just butterflies instead of other wildlife. D. Ants and grasshoppers are less important than butterflies. 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。 KEEP IT SECURE (安全) All apps collect data as you use them.

By 10 a.m., it was time to find shade, so Larrane, at 44, decided they would walk down to the river. “We’re going to pick berries now,” she announced. Larrane’s school stood on a wooded slope not far up from the river. After clearing away the painting supplies and handing each child an empty jar on that July morning, Larrane called for Pal, her one-year-old German shepherd mix (德国牧羊犬). Stopping the children at the first berry (浆果) bush, Larrane pointed to the clusters (簇) of sweet, navy blue fruit. “Look, the berries are all over,” she said She helped Lisa find some clusters on the lowest branches. Mikey watched and then bit into a berry. “Mmm, good,” he said, and got busy plucking more. Near them a young cougar (美洲狮) cocked (竖起) an ear toward the birdlike talk and sniffed (嗅) the air. Cougars rarely attack people or show themselves, but as towns expanded into mountainous countryside, there had been mare and more sightings. Larrane and the children moved slowly from bush to bush. Pal stopped frequently in the shade, panting. Within 20 minutes, the children had filled their jars and were almost at the river. Here, the ground fell steeply to a cool, shady strip of sand about 15 feet wide. Now the cougar could see the funny little creatures that had been making all the noise. These were perfect prey (猎物): small and unaware. Larrane sensed the children suddenly go quiet. She looked up to see the back end of a cat the size of Pal standing over Mikey. The cat’s head was down.The sight of the cougar near her kids momentarily froze Larrane. Now Natani was giggling (咯咯地笑) nervously. “Stop licking Mikey’s face,” she said playfully, as though talking to a house cat.Her mind racing wildly, Larrane sprang toward the cougar. Blindly intending to grab its tail, she shifted aim at the last minute and seized the cat by the scruff (颈背) of the neck. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Instantly, the cougar removed its claws and wheeled toward Larrane. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Watching the cat move away, Larrane ordered, “Let’s go as fast as we can!” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力答案：1-5 BBCBA 6-10 CABAC 11-15 AACAB 16-20 BBCCB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 绵阳南山中学2024年秋季高二9月月考 英语试题 时间：120分钟 分值：150分 第Ⅰ卷(选择题) 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有2分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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。 例：How much is the shirt?

The relationship between screen exposure(使用屏幕)and mental well-being remains unclear, but some studies suggest there is cause for concern. Yet many parents remain careful of banning phones during the school day. They are afraid that doing so would cut communication between them and their children —not only when they want to organize pickups or drop-offs but also in the event of an emergency. Schools have managed to function without smartphones for centuries. For concerned parents, equipping their children with traditional cellphones, these days dubbed “dumbphones,” might be the best option; schools might consider whether selective (选择性的) phone bans that permit such devices could work. Or parents could get even more old-fashioned and simply call their school’s office when necessary. The next question for schools is how to ban cellphones. A popular option is requiring the use of magnetic (有磁性的) bags that lock in the morning and unlock when the final bell rings, or in the event of an emergency. When smartphone bans are done right, they can make a big difference. At Bethlehem Central High School near Albany, N.Y., for example, academic progress has improved since applying a ban last fall. Students are less distracted and more tuned into learning. Parents have even said they’re surprised at the success of the newly phone-free school. 4. What does the underlined word “conflicted” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Not knowing what to do. B. Very happy with sth. C. Not good at some things. D. Worried about sth. 5. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. How to learn Shakespeare’s plays and poems in school. B. Screen exposure does make people mentally unhealthy. C. Heavy usage of smartphones seriously affect students. D. Students in USA love phones more than ones in China. 6. What schools can do for concerned parents? A. Ban the parents’ own smartphones. B. Selectively ban some students’ phones. C. Allow students carry dumbphones. D. Encourage them to shout outside window. 7. Why is Bethlehem Central High School mentioned in the last paragraph? A. Students there are allowed to use smartphones. B. To show smartphone bans are beneficial. C. Parents there are less distracted and surprised. D. Just to praise the school’s achievements. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述洛杉矶联合学区成为美国最大的一个批准在全区禁止使用手机的学区以及手机禁令带来的影响。 【4题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后“between wanting their children to learn without distraction (分心) and worried about the loss of the constant and easy communication to which they’ve grown used(一方面希望他们的孩子不受干扰地学习，另一方面又担心失去他们已经习惯的持续、轻松的交流)”可知，家长们面对手机禁令的心情是矛盾、不知所措，conflicted意为“不知所措的”，故选A。 【5题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Smartphones undoubtedly hold back students’ attention to solving for x or close reading a Shakespearean poem. A 2023 study by Common Sense Media revealed that teens check their phones more than 100 times a day on average. On top of the hundreds of notifications lighting up screens and interrupting class lectures, teens now spend 4.8 hours on social media each day. The relationship between screen exposure (使用屏幕) and mental well-being remains unclear, but some studies suggest there is cause for concern.(智能手机无疑会分散学生的注意力，让他们无法解出x或细读莎士比亚的诗歌。常识传媒于2023年进行的一项研究显示，青少年平均每天查看手机的次数超过100次。除了点亮屏幕、打断课堂讲课的数百条通知外，青少年现在每天花4.8个小时在社交媒体上。使用屏幕与心理健康之间的关系尚不清楚，但一些研究表明有理由担心)”可知，第二段主要讲述过度使用手机严重影响了学生，故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“For concerned parents, equipping their children with traditional cellphones, these days dubbed “dumbphones,” might be the best option; schools might consider whether selective (选择性的) phone bans that permit such devices could work.(对于忧心忡忡的父母来说，给孩子配备传统手机（如今被称为“哑巴手机”）可能是最好的选择；学校可能会考虑是否有选择性地禁止使用此类设备)”可知，对于忧心忡忡的家长，学校可以允许学生携带“哑巴手机”，故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。最后一段首句“When smartphone bans are done right, they can make a big difference.(如果智能手机禁令执行得当，就会产生巨大的影响)”提到，如果智能手机禁令执行得当，就会产生巨大的影响，接着下文“At Bethlehem Central High School near Albany, N.Y., for example, academic progress has improved since applying a ban last fall. Students are less distracted and more tuned into learning. Parents have even said they’re surprised at the success of the newly phone-free school.(例如，在纽约州奥尔巴尼附近的Bethlehem中央高中，自从去年秋天实施禁令以来，学业进步有所改善。学生们更少分心，更专注于学习。家长们甚至表示，他们对这所新的无手机学校的成功感到惊讶)”以Bethlehem中央高中为例，展示手机禁令带来的积极影响，故选B。 C Profits at Netflix have increased as the world’s largest streaming (在线播放) service added millions of subscribers (订户). The entertainment giant added 9.3 million new viewers in the latest quarter — more than expected by analysts on Wall Street — leaving it with a record 269.6 million worldwide. "We’re off to a good start in 2024,” the company said. Its shares (股票) dropped 2% yesterday, however, after rising by almost a third since January. Profits at Netflix rose 15% to $9.4bn (£7.7bn) in the three months to 31 March. Net income (净收入) jumped 79% to $2.3bn over the same period. Netflix pioneered the streaming revolution. Hollywood’s established giants, from Disney to Warner Bros, are still struggling to catch up and turn a profit on their own competitor digital services. A growth in subscribers early in the pandemic paused in 2022 as limits were lifted. But shares in Netflix have increased over the past two years as it shored up growth by forbidding password-sharing and introducing a cheaper level of its service, with advertisements. Netflix has also broadened to live events, including coverage of World Wrestling Entertainment, and videogaming. In a letter to investors on Wednesday night, the company announced it would stop reporting how many members it has from next year. As it has regained momentum (发展势头) following its post-pandemic growth struggles, Netflix has been trying to direct Wall Street’s focus away from its subscriber growth numbers， arguing that other financial things including sales were more important. Forecasting sales growth of up to 15% this year, the company said to achieve “healthy” long-term growth it will need to “improve the variety and quality” of movies, shows and games on its platform; make it easier for users to find new series; and build its ad-funded level into a “more meaningful contributor” to its business. 8. What do we know about Netflix? A. Its net income jumped 15% to $2. 3bn. B. It has 9. 3 million subscribers in the world. C. Its profits rose by $9. 4bn in the first quarter. D. It is the biggest streaming service worldwide. 9. Why did the company say “We’re off to a good start in 2024”? A. It pioneered the great streaming change in the first 3 months. B. Its growth in subscribers paused after the limits were lifted. C It gained more subscribers and more profits in the first quarter. D. Its shares dropped 2% yesterday after falling by almost a third. 10. Why does the company plan to stop reporting how many subscribers it has? A. It has reported wrong numbers in the past years. B. It is addicted to videogaming and hurting its users. C. It lost so many users in the first 3 months worldwide. D. It wants to highlight its more important financial parts. 11. What will Netflix do according to the last paragraph? A. It will improve the variety and quality of their products. B. It wants to make it easier to find more new profits. C. It has to make sales grow up to 15% during this quarter. D. It intends to achieve unhealthy long term growth. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了Netflix在2024年初的订户和利润增长情况，以及其未来的财务报告策略调整。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Profits at Netflix have increased as the world’s largest streaming service added millions of subscribers.(随着全球最大的流媒体服务Netflix增加了数百万用户，其利润也有所增加)”可知，Netflix是全球最大的流媒体服务公司。故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段的“The entertainment giant added 9.3 million new viewers in the latest quarter — more than expected by analysts on Wall Street—leaving it with a record 269.6 million worldwide.(这家娱乐巨头在最近一个季度增加了930万新观众，超过了华尔街分析师的预期，使其全球观众人数达到创纪录的2.696亿)”以及第四段的“Profits at Netflix rose 15% to $9.4bn (£7.7bn) in the three months to 31 March. Net income(净收入)jumped 79% to $2.3bn over the same period.(截至3月31日的三个月里，Netflix的利润增长了15%，达到94亿美元（77亿英镑）。同期，净收入增长79%，达到23亿美元)”可推知，Netflix在2024年第一季度增加了更多的订户和利润，所以公司说有一个好的开局。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“As it has regained momentum following its post-pandemic growth struggles, Netflix has been trying to direct Wall Street’s focus away from its subscriber growth numbers, arguing that other financial things including sales were more important.(随着Netflix在疫情后的增长困境中重新获得动力，它一直试图将华尔街的注意力从其用户增长数字上转移开，认为包括销售在内的其他财务问题更重要)”可知，Netflix计划停止报告订户数量是因为它想强调其他更重要的财务部分。故选D。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Forecasting sales growth of up to 15% this year, the company said to achieve “healthy” long-term growth it will need to “improve the variety and quality” of movies, shows and games on its platform;(该公司预测今年的销售额增长率将高达15%，并表示要实现“健康”的长期增长，需要在其平台上“提高电影、节目和游戏的种类和质量)”可知，Netflix将会改善其产品的种类和质量。故选A。 D Good news for lazy gardeners: one labour-saving change could almost double the number of butterflies in your garden, according to a new scientific study — let the grass grow long. Now an analyses of six years of butterfly sightings across 600 British gardens has provided evidence that wilder lawns increase numbers.The benefits of leaving areas of grass long were most obvious in gardens within intensively (密集) farmed landscapes, with up to 93% more butterflies found and a greater range of species. Gardens with long grass in urban areas showed an 18% increase. “We wanted to be able to give tried and tested gardening advice that will benefit butterflies, as we know lots of people want to help,” said Dr Richard Fox, the head of science at Butterfly Conservation and a co-author of the study, published in the journal Science of the Total Environment. “This study proves, for the first time, that allowing a patch of grass to grow long will attract more butterflies into your garden,” he said. According to the study, long grass in gardens attracts more butterfly species whose caterpillars feed on grasses. Fox said this suggested the lift in population was not simply because long grass provided more nectar (花蜜) from wildflowers within it, but because butterflies were seeking or actually breeding (繁殖) in rewilded lawns. Fox said: “What people are doing with long grass in gardens is creating potential or actual breeding habitat. In order to make an impact on the bio-diversity crisis we need to be creating places where butterflies and other wildlife can breed.” If you have a patch of long grass you may have grasshoppers, beetles and ant hills as well — there will be all these spin-offs (派生物).” He added. 12. What do we know about the study? A. The researchers viewed 600 Americans gardens. B. Only more butterflies were found in the gardens. C. Dr. Richard Fox alone completed the research. D. It proves wilder lawns attracts more butterflies. 13. Why do more butterfly species go to wilder fields? A. They can eat caterpillars on the long grass. B. Wild flowers create a beautiful environment. C. Butterflies will easily breed babies there. D. Wild grass can itself provide sweet nectar. 14. Which is the most suitable title for the passage? A. Long grass brings more butterflies. B. Lazy gardeners have a good harvest. C. More sighting of butterflies in cities. D. A good labour-saving change in factory. 15. What do Fox’s words mean in the last two paragraphs? A. If you are lazy, your vegetables will be eaten by insects. B. The effortless change helps solve the bio-diversity crisis. C. We should protect just butterflies instead of other wildlife. D Ants and grasshoppers are less important than butterflies. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讨论了一项研究发现，即让草长得更长可以吸引更多的蝴蝶，并有助于解决生物多样性危机。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的“Now an analyses of six years of butterfly sightings across 600 British gardens has provided evidence that wilder lawns increase numbers.(现在，对英国600个花园六年来蝴蝶目击事件的分析提供了证据，表明更荒凉的草坪会增加蝴蝶的数量)”可知，研究证明了更野生的草坪吸引了更多的蝴蝶。故选D。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段的“Fox said this suggested the lift in population was not simply because long grass provided more nectar(花蜜)from wildflowers within it, but because butterflies were seeking or actually breeding(繁殖)in rewilded lawns.(福克斯说，这表明种群数量的增加不仅仅是因为长草从其中的野花中提供了更多的花蜜，还因为蝴蝶在重新修剪的草坪上寻找或实际繁殖)”可知，更多的蝴蝶种类去到更野生的草地是因为它们更容易在那里繁殖。故选C。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段的“Good news for lazy gardeners: one labour-saving change could almost double the number of butterflies in your garden，according to a new scientific study—let the grass grow long.(对于懒惰的园丁来说，这是个好消息：根据一项新的科学研究，一项节省劳动力的改变几乎可以使你花园里的蝴蝶数量翻一番——让草长高)”可知，文章主要讨论了一项研究发现，即让草长得更长可以吸引更多的蝴蝶，并有助于解决生物多样性危机。故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的“In order to make an impact on the bio-diversity crisis we need to be creating places where butterflies and other wildlife can breed.(为了对生物多样性危机产生影响，我们需要创造蝴蝶和其他野生动物可以繁殖的地方)”以及最后一段“If you have a patch of long grass you may have grasshoppers, beetles and ant hills as well — there will be all these spin-offs(派生物).” He added.(他补充道：“如果你有一片长草，你可能也会有蚱蜢、甲虫和蚁丘——会有所有这些副产品。”)”可推知，Fox的话意味着这种不费力的改变有助于解决生物多样性危机。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。 KEEP IT SECURE (安全) All apps collect data as you use them.

By 10 a.m., it was time to find shade, so Larrane, at 44, decided they would walk down to the river. “We’re going to pick berries now,” she announced. Larrane’s school stood on a wooded slope not far up from the river. After clearing away the painting supplies and handing each child an empty jar on that July morning, Larrane called for Pal, her one-year-old German shepherd mix (德国牧羊犬). Stopping the children at the first berry (浆果) bush, Larrane pointed to the clusters (簇) of sweet, navy blue fruit. “Look, the berries are all over,” she said She helped Lisa find some clusters on the lowest branches. Mikey watched and then bit into a berry. “Mmm, good,” he said, and got busy plucking more. Near them a young cougar (美洲狮) cocked (竖起) an ear toward the birdlike talk and sniffed (嗅) the air. Cougars rarely attack people or show themselves, but as towns expanded into mountainous countryside, there had been mare and more sightings. Larrane and the children moved slowly from bush to bush. Pal stopped frequently in the shade, panting. Within 20 minutes, the children had filled their jars and were almost at the river. Here, the ground fell steeply to a cool, shady strip of sand about 15 feet wide. Now the cougar could see the funny little creatures that had been making all the noise. These were perfect prey (猎物): small and unaware. Larrane sensed the children suddenly go quiet. She looked up to see the back end of a cat the size of Pal standing over Mikey. The cat’s head was down.The sight of the cougar near her kids momentarily froze Larrane. Now Natani was giggling (咯咯地笑) nervously. “Stop licking Mikey’s face,” she said playfully, as though talking to a house cat.Her mind racing wildly, Larrane sprang toward the cougar. Blindly intending to grab its tail, she shifted aim at the last minute and seized the cat by the scruff (颈背) of the neck. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Instantly, the cougar removed its claws and wheeled toward Larrane. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Watching the cat move away, Larrane ordered, “Let’s go as fast as we can!” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 “Instantly, the cougar removed its claws and wheeled toward Larrane. Its eyes fixed on her, and it let out a low growl. Larrane’s heart pounded in her chest, but she refused to back down. She held the cougar’s scruff tightly, knowing that if she let go, the children would be in grave danger. Suddenly, Pal, the German shepherd, ran towards them, barking loudly. The cougar was momentarily distracted, and Larrane took the opportunity to push the children behind her. Watching the cat move away, Larrane ordered: “Let’s go as fast as we can!” The children quickly followed her lead, running towards the safety of the school. Larrane kept a close eye on the cougar until they were out of sight. Once they reached the school, she called the authorities to report the incident. Everyone was shaken by the encounter, but grateful that no one was hurt. Larrane’s quick thinking and bravery had saved the day. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Larrane Leech某天带着托儿所的五个孩子外出，结果遇到了美洲狮。他们毫不知情，幸亏Larrane保持冷静，拒绝退缩，最终成功脱险，庆幸没有人受伤。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“那只美洲狮立刻移开爪子，向Larrane走去”可知，第一段可描写Larrane面对美洲狮的反应以及心理活动。 ②由第二段首句内容“看着美洲狮走开，Larrane命令道：‘我们尽快走吧!’”可知，第二段可描写Larrane和孩子们脱险以后Larrane报警，庆幸没有人受伤。 2.续写线索：美洲狮走向Larrane——Larrane没有退缩——Larrane保持冷静——美洲狮走开——Larrane和孩子们脱困——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①跳动：pound/beat ②拒绝：refuse/decline ③消失：be out of sight/disappear 情绪类 ①勇敢：bravery/courage ②感激：grateful/thankful 【点睛】[高分句型1] She held the cougar’s scruff tightly, knowing that if she let go, the children would be in grave danger.
