But I couldn’t enjoy the good weather because of my grandpa. He was acting stranger than usual. He kept waving at my family and me without saying anything. My father worried about him, but we had to go back home. After leaving my grandpa, I worried about him, too. In the car on the way home, the sun suddenly warmed me up and took my worries away. It made me sleepy, and I fell asleep. A sudden phone call rang and woke me up from a sweet dream after a few seconds. I just opened my eyes and saw my father’s sad face. There were tears streaming down from his eyes. What had happened to make my father so sad? “Tell me daddy, why are you crying?” My dad told me the shocking news — my grandpa just died a few minutes ago. My father then quickly turned the car around and drove in the direction to grandpa’s house again. I couldn’t cry at all before I saw him. The sky had become dark and so had my family’s faces. In the morning, all my relatives gathered at grandpa’s house to prepare for the funeral (葬礼). I saw a peaceful dead body lying in a coffin (棺材). It felt like he’s taking a long sleep, but his body was cold like frozen ice. I wanted to give him a blanket to make him warm. After a few seconds, tears were in my eyes and I cried like a baby. I missed the time with grandpa fighting over the television channel. I missed the time when my grandpa gave his warm, strong hand to me. I missed my grandpa so much. I loved my grandpa so much. 1. The underlined sentence in paragraph 1 suggests that the author’s grandpa ________. A. was a strange old man B. knew that he was dying C. was tired of meeting the author D. disliked playing with the author 2. According to the text, the author’s grandpa died ________. A. when the author and his family were on their way home B. after he waved at the author and his family C. the moment the author and his family left D. when the author went to bed 3.

Seeing his grandpa in a coffin, the author ________. A. expressed his love for him B. covered his body with a blanket C. managed to control his sad feelings D. thought of many things about him while crying B At 12, my father decided to take me on a trip to France. I had never been out of the country before, so I was very excited. My aunt, my father and I went around with my father showing us all the unbelievable sites in Paris. None of us spoke much French but we loved the city. We had taken the subway all over the city and were congratulating ourselves on our mastering what is honestly an excellent subway design that is pretty easy to follow. We decided to visit Versailles by train. We chatted happily along the way until my father realized we were far into the French countryside and no one around spoke English. We reached the end of the line and felt afraid when everyone finally left the train. An old man and his grandchild noticed us and came to help. He spoke no English, so in broken French we tried to explain. When he finally understood, this great man settled his grandson and showed us to the correct train and then boarded with us. Later we knew the truth that there was a train transfer (转乘) and he didn’t want us to miss it. This kind man rode a train for an hour and a half out of his way to make sure that three Americans got where they wanted to be. He refused to let us pay for his ticket. He did it all with a gentle smile and patted our hands gently at the stop. Then in his quiet way, he boarded the train to return the way he had come. What impressed me most was the man and his kindness during the amazing trip. Some Americans think the French are rude for some reason, but I always try to persuade them to change their minds with this very story. 5. What happened to the author and his family on the train? A. They couldn’t understand the signs of the train. B. They failed to get off the train at the right time. C. They had different opinions about where to go first. D.

Travelling enriches one’s life. D. Helping others brings great pleasure. 8. What’s the purpose of the author’s writing the text? A. To explain an unexpected problem. B. To list the unbelievable sites in Paris. C. To share an unforgettable foreign experience. D. To show the importance of mastering a foreign language. C Parts of Africa are covered by a dark cloud. But this is no rain cloud. It is a living cloud made of billions of locusts (蝗虫) that are traveling across the continent eating everything in their path. And now in the battle to stop this disaster, a radio station in Senegal, West Africa, is offering listeners 50 kilograms of rice if they can catch and kill 50 kilograms of locusts. “We think this idea will get more people to take part in the war on the locusts.” said Abdoulaye Ba, from Sud-Fm, a radio station in one of Senegal's worst affected area. This is West Africa’s biggest locust disaster in 15 years, and it is moving east, causing huge damage to crops. As they move they produce young and increase their number and will soon threaten (威胁) Sudan in the northeast of Africa. Some say it could reach Asia. Experts say the harmful effect on crops in areas already suffering from food shortage and war could cause many people to go hungry. Governments in the areas are not well equipped to fight the pest. Although leaders of 12 countries have agreed on a plan, it is not expected to be enough. “We are now treating 6,000 hectares (公顷) per day with pesticide (杀虫剂), but we need to treat 20,000 hectares per day in order to have any hope of controlling this disaster ,”said Mohamed Abdallahi Ould Babah, director of locust control in Mauritania. Requests are being made for international aid, which is only way to limit the disaster, the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization warned. 9. By using "dark cloud" to describe locusts in the first paragraph, author of the article . A. shows the size and speed of the mass of locusts B. suggests the great damage that locusts can cause C. warns that locusts would sweep the continent like rain clouds D. both A and B 10. The story is mainly about . A. West Africa's united effort in fighting a disaster B. the difficulty in controlling locusts C. how locusts caused great damage to West Africa D. a struggle to fight against a disaster brought by locusts in West Africa 11. The locust disaster . A. would be even more serious in Asia B. is out of control C. affected only the warning areas D. cannot be stopped unless twice as much pesticide is provided for the affected areas 12. Which of the following is WRONG ? A. Sud-Fm offers a rewarded for fighting locusts so that more people will join in the effort. B Senegal is to the southwest of Sudan . C. The locusts can cause such damage mainly because it has no natural enemy in West Africa . D. 12 countries affected by locusts have united but still lack pesticide. D Reading is to success what water is to fish. Apparently every successful person develops a passion for reading. This is because reading is a key element to obtain the information required to understand something. For instance, lawyers have to study and learn every established law on their specific branches. Sometimes the law changes according to people’s needs. A good lawyer has to be informed about the latest news in the court. A doctor has to be informed of the latest advances in medicine. Reading is very important for all mankind. Everything is relative in this world, especially reading. Reading can open many doors and it can lead you into a path of success. Studies have confirmed that reading to your unborn child is very good. This way your child will develop a passion for reading. How do you develop a passion for reading? There is only one way you can boost your passion for reading. Let me explain this to you. If you want to learn how to ride a bike, you have to get on the bike as many times as possible until you have learned. It works the same way with reading. If you want to boost your reading, take a book and read it all the way through. When you finish reading your first book, take another book and do the same. Try to read as much as you can. If you are going out, grab a magazine, a book, an article or something to read. There is a very important factor behind the reading — reading comprehension. It’s what makes you understand the meaning behind the text. Let’s assume that you read 2 document and you ere supposed to explain the meaning of the document. How would you explain the document if you couldn’t capture (捕捉) the message of the author? 13. The first paragraphs mainly talk about ________. A. what reading comprehension is B. how to develop a passion for reading C. the key to success D. the importance of reading 14. We can define reading comprehension as ________. A. a very important factor behind reading B. something that makes people understand what they read C. a strong passion for reading D. the latest information in reading 15. The author develops the text mainly by ________. A. comparing the opinions of different people B. presenting a cause and analyzing its effects C. presenting opinions and giving examples D. following the natural time order 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。 Five Ways to Improve Communication Skills Communication is one of the most important skills we can ever learn. It affects everything that we do —whether we’re communicating at work to meet deadlines and achieve results, or communicating with friends, family and partners to build strong relationships. Thus communication is very important. Here are five ways to improve your communication skills. ___16___ This reflects a real lack of respect. By interrupting someone, what you’re basically saying is “I don’t care what you’re saying—what I have to say is more important”. Don’t finish other people’s sentences. ___17___ Wrong. Research has shown by doing this you are dis-empowering (剥夺权利) the other person because you are taking control of the conversation, so bite your tongue! Paraphrase. If you want to show that you have really understood someone, then paraphrasing (解释) is a great tool.___18___ Here’s an example: “So Barney, what I’m hearing is that results are the number one objective for you right now and we need to find some fast solutions for you?” ___19___ Focus on active listening instead of passive listening. The difference is that active listening means you engage with and respond to the other person based on what he/she has said, while passive listening is simply the act of listening with no response. Maintain eye contact. By looking at the other person in the eyes, you are proving that you’re interested in what he/she is saving.___20___ A. All you do is repeat back to someone what he/she has just said, before you comment yourself. B. You don’t see them interrupting others or leaving off mid conversation. C. Listen actively. D. This also keeps you focused (集中) and less distracted (分散). E. Talk actively. F. I used to do this a lot thinking I was helpfully finishing people’s sentences for them. G Never interrupt people. 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。 It was in spring, 1968.

In the old days, people used to train dogs to protect themselves against the attacks ___38___ other beasts. And later they came ___39___ (realize) that the dog was not only useful ___40___ willing to obey its master. For example, when people used dogs for hunting, the dogs would not eat what they caught without ___41___ (permit). But now people in the city need not protect themselves against attacks of animals.

He would tell me that he was already seventeen, but still had a curfew (宵禁). He believed he was practically an adult. I pointed out that he was not an adult as he was still in high school. “You don’t trust me!” he yelled. Before I continued, he rolled his eyes, slammed the door and walked away. I sighed. How could I make Jordan see that I only wanted to keep him safe? I decided to go for a walk, hoping the December air would clear my head. I opened the front door and nearly stepped on her: a small black cat, just like a meatball. “Hi, Meatball,” I said, bringing her into my arms. I walked back in, touching her neck gently. Meatball seemed happy enough to come in the house, but after an hour or two, she sat by the door, meowing to go back outside. “Why won’t she just stay in with us all the time?” Nathan, my youngest son asked. I explained to him that she was happy here but she liked being able to come and go as she pleased. “That must be nice,” Jordan muttered from the other room, complaining why the cat, not him, could come and go. He even asked me to give Meatball a curfew. Meatball became a regular. One night, temperatures were unusually low. Meatball stood at the door, meowing to go outside. I shook my head at her, afraid that she might freeze to death. She stared at me and meowed again. I patted her head, “I know you’re not happy, but it’s for your own good.” “Mom’s not being mean to you,” Nathan told the cat. “She’s just trying to keep you from turning into a frozen meatball.” We both laughed at his joke. The next morning, I couldn’t find Meatball. I asked the kids if anyone had seen her. 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。 Jordan nodded, “I let her out last night.” ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As I drove to the animal hospital, Jordan sat in the back, holding Meatball inside his coat. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力 1—5 CBCCA 6—10 CAACB 11—15 ACBAB 16—20 ACBBA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 腾八中高一年级下学期开学检测试卷（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） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两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，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

I had never been out of the country before, so I was very excited. My aunt, my father and I went around with my father showing us all the unbelievable sites in Paris. None of us spoke much French but we loved the city. We had taken the subway all over the city and were congratulating ourselves on our mastering what is honestly an excellent subway design that is pretty easy to follow. We decided to visit Versailles by train. We chatted happily along the way until my father realized we were far into the French countryside and no one around spoke English. We reached the end of the line and felt afraid when everyone finally left the train. An old man and his grandchild noticed us and came to help. He spoke no English, so in broken French we tried to explain. When he finally understood, this great man settled his grandson and showed us to the correct train and then boarded with us. Later we knew the truth that there was a train transfer (转乘) and he didn’t want us to miss it. This kind man rode a train for an hour and a half out of his way to make sure that three Americans got where they wanted to be. He refused to let us pay for his ticket. He did it all with a gentle smile and patted our hands gently at the stop. Then in his quiet way, he boarded the train to return the way he had come. What impressed me most was the man and his kindness during the amazing trip. Some Americans think the French are rude for some reason, but I always try to persuade them to change their minds with this very story. 5. What happened to the author and his family on the train? A. They couldn’t understand the signs of the train. B. They failed to get off the train at the right time. C. They had different opinions about where to go first. D. They found it hard to communicate with the French. 6. How did the man help the author and his family? A. He paid for their train tickets. B. He showed them the returning way. C. He invited them to travel together. D. He led them to their place. 7. Which of the following can best describe the last paragraph? A. Seeing is believing. B. Being kind is a good manner. C. Travelling enriches one’s life. D. Helping others brings great pleasure. 8. What’s the purpose of the author’s writing the text? A. To explain an unexpected problem. B. To list the unbelievable sites in Paris. C. To share an unforgettable foreign experience. D. To show the importance of mastering a foreign language. 【答案】5. B 6. D 7. A 8. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了作者十二岁时和父亲在法国旅行，在去凡尔赛的路上，坐过了站，一位老人帮助了他们。这位老人为了确保他们能到达他们想去的地方而陪他们坐了一个半小时的火车。这件事使作者印象深刻。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。由第二段中的“We decided to visit Versailles by train. We chatted happily along the way until my father realized we were far into the French countryside and no one around spoke English. (我们决定乘火车参观凡尔赛。一路上我们愉快地聊天，直到我父亲意识到我们远在法国农村，周围没有人会说英语)”和第三段中的“We reached the end of the line and felt afraid when everyone finally left the train. (我们到达了终点，当所有人最后都离开火车时，我们感到害怕)”可知，作者和家人想去凡尔赛宫游玩，却坐过了站，他们没能及时下火车。故选B项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。由第四段中的“This kind man rode a train for an hour and a half out of his way to make sure that three Americans got where they wanted to be.

(给我印象最深的是这个男人和他在这次奇妙的旅行中的善良。有些美国人出于某种原因认为法国人很粗鲁，但我总是试图用这个故事来说服他们改变想法。)”可知，作者用自己的经历说明一些美国人对法国人的看法是不正确的，所以要得出真正的事实，应该“眼见为实”，即Seeing is believing。故选A项。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中的“At 12, my father decided to take me on a trip to France. (12岁时，父亲决定带我去法国旅行)”，最后一段“What impressed me most was the man and his kindness during the amazing trip. Some Americans think the French are rude for some reason, but I always try to persuade them to change their minds with this very story.(最让我印象深刻的是在这惊人的旅行种这个男人和他的善良。由于某些原因，一些美国人认为法国人很粗鲁，但我总是试图用这个故事来说服他们改变主意)”可知，作者写作这篇文章的目的是为了分享一个难忘的国外经历。故选C项。 C Parts of Africa are covered by a dark cloud. But this is no rain cloud. It is a living cloud made of billions of locusts (蝗虫) that are traveling across the continent eating everything in their path. And now in the battle to stop this disaster, a radio station in Senegal, West Africa, is offering listeners 50 kilograms of rice if they can catch and kill 50 kilograms of locusts. “We think this idea will get more people to take part in the war on the locusts.” said Abdoulaye Ba, from Sud-Fm, a radio station in one of Senegal's worst affected area. This is West Africa’s biggest locust disaster in 15 years, and it is moving east, causing huge damage to crops. As they move they produce young and increase their number and will soon threaten (威胁) Sudan in the northeast of Africa. Some say it could reach Asia. Experts say the harmful effect on crops in areas already suffering from food shortage and war could cause many people to go hungry. Governments in the areas are not well equipped to fight the pest. Although leaders of 12 countries have agreed on a plan, it is not expected to be enough. “We are now treating 6,000 hectares (公顷) per day with pesticide (杀虫剂), but we need to treat 20,000 hectares per day in order to have any hope of controlling this disaster ,”said Mohamed Abdallahi Ould Babah, director of locust control in Mauritania. Requests are being made for international aid, which is only way to limit the disaster, the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization warned. 9. By using "dark cloud" to describe locusts in the first paragraph, author of the article .

The locust disaster . A. would be even more serious in Asia B. is out of control C. affected only the warning areas D. cannot be stopped unless twice as much pesticide is provided for the affected areas 12. Which of the following is WRONG ? A. Sud-Fm offers a rewarded for fighting locusts so that more people will join in the effort. B. Senegal is to the southwest of Sudan . C. The locusts can cause such damage mainly because it has no natural enemy in West Africa . D. 12 countries affected by locusts have united but still lack pesticide. 【答案】9. D 10. D 11. B 12. C 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。这篇短文讲述是非洲的部分地区遭受了非常严重的蝗虫灾害，造成了很大的损失。现在政府及其他国家的领袖都已经采取措施，展开行动，消灭蝗虫。电台也呼吁更多的人加入到与蝗虫的战斗中来。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段Parts of Africa are covered by a dark cloud. But this is no rain cloud. It is a living cloud made of billions of locusts (蝗虫) that are traveling across the continent eating everything in their path.可知，非洲部分地区被乌云覆盖，但这并不是雨云，而是由数十亿只蝗虫组成的活云，它们正在穿越非洲大陆，吃掉路上的所有东西。可推知，这里是用乌云来形容蝗虫的大小、速度和危害。故选D。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段Parts of Africa are covered by a dark cloud. But this is no rain cloud. It is a living cloud made of billions of locusts (蝗虫) that are traveling across the continent eating everything in their path.可知，非洲部分地区被乌云覆盖，但这并不是雨云，而是由数十亿只蝗虫组成的活云，它们正在穿越非洲大陆，吃掉路上的所有东西。结合文章主要讲的是非洲西部发生的严重的蝗虫灾害，而且各方面正为消灭蝗虫而做着努力。由此可知，文章主要讲述的是一场与西非蝗虫带来的灾难作斗争的故事。故选D。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“We are now treating 6,000 hectares per day with pesticide, but we need to treat 20,000 hectares per day in order to have any hope of controlling this disaster ,” said Mohamed Abdallahi Ould Babah, director of locust control in Mauritania.可知毛里塔尼亚蝗虫控制中心主任Mohamed Abdallahi Ould Babah说：“我们现在每天要处理6,000公顷的蝗虫，但是我们需要每天处理20,000公顷的蝗虫，这样才有希望控制这场灾难。”由此可知，蝗虫灾害目前失去了控制。故选B。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中And now in the battle to stop this disaster, a radio station in Senegal, West Africa, is offering listeners 50 kilograms of rice if they can catch and kill 50 kilograms of locusts.可知，现在，在阻止这场灾难的战斗中，西非塞内加尔的一家电台向听众提供50公斤大米，如果他们能够捕捉并杀死50公斤蝗虫的话。由此可知，A选项“苏丹南方发展联盟—调频广播电台为抗击蝗虫提供奖励，以便更多的人参与这项努力”正确；根据第三段中As they move they produce young and increase their number and will soon threaten Sudan in the northeast of Africa.可知，随着它们的迁徙，它们会繁殖后代，数量也会增加，很快就会威胁到非洲东北部的苏丹。由此可知，可知B选项“塞内加尔在苏丹的西南部”正确；根据最后一段中Although leaders of 12 countries have agreed on a plan, it is not expected to be enough.可知，尽管12个国家的领导人已经就一项计划达成一致，但预计这还不够。由此可知，D选项“受蝗虫影响的12个国家已经联合起来，但仍然缺乏杀虫剂”正确。只有C选项“蝗虫能造成这样的破坏主要是因为它们在西非没有天敌”文章没有提到，C选项错误。故选C。 D Reading is to success what water is to fish.

It affects everything that we do —whether we’re communicating at work to meet deadlines and achieve results, or communicating with friends, family and partners to build strong relationships. Thus communication is very important. Here are five ways to improve your communication skills. ___16___ This reflects a real lack of respect. By interrupting someone, what you’re basically saying is “I don’t care what you’re saying—what I have to say is more important”. Don’t finish other people’s sentences. ___17___ Wrong. Research has shown by doing this you are dis-empowering (剥夺权利) the other person because you are taking control of the conversation, so bite your tongue! Paraphrase. If you want to show that you have really understood someone, then paraphrasing (解释) is a great tool.___18___ Here’s an example: “So Barney, what I’m hearing is that results are the number one objective for you right now and we need to find some fast solutions for you?” ___19___ Focus on active listening instead of passive listening. The difference is that active listening means you engage with and respond to the other person based on what he/she has said, while passive listening is simply the act of listening with no response. Maintain eye contact. By looking at the other person in the eyes, you are proving that you’re interested in what he/she is saving.___20___ A. All you do is repeat back to someone what he/she has just said, before you comment yourself. B. You don’t see them interrupting others or leaving off mid conversation. C. Listen actively. D. This also keeps you focused (集中) and less distracted (分散). E. Talk actively. F. I used to do this a lot thinking I was helpfully finishing people’s sentences for them. G. Never interrupt people. 【答案】16. G 17. F 18. A 19. C 20. D 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍五种提高交际能力的方法。 【16题详解】 根据下文中的“By interrupting someone, what you’re basically saying is ‘I don’t care what you’re saying — what I have to say is more important”可知, 通过打断别人，你基本上是在说“我不在乎你说什么，我要说的更重要。所以该部分要阐述的是不要打断别人, 故G选项“不要打断别人”切题。故G项正确。 【17题详解】 根据该空前的标题“Don’t finish other people’s sentences.”不要接着别人的话说。和该空后的“Wrong”可推断出,此处表示我过去常常帮助别人说完他们的话。故F选项“我过去常常帮助别人说完他们的话”切题。故F项正确。 【18题详解】 根据空前后的句子“如果你想表明你真的理解了某人，那么转述是一个很好的工具”可知, 选线承接上文话题。故A选项“如果你想表明你真的理解了某人，那么转述是一个很好的工具”切题。故A项正确。 【19题详解】 根据下文中的“注重主动倾听，而不是被动倾听”可知,此处讲述的方法是积极倾听。故C选项“积极倾听”为本段的标题。故C项正确。 【20题详解】 根据本段标题及空前边的句子“By looking at the other person in the eyes, you are proving that you’re interested in what he/she is saving.”可知, 看着对方的眼睛，你在证明你对他/她的东西感兴趣。选项承接上文。故D选项“这也能让你集中精力，少分心”切题。故D项正确。 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。 It was in spring, 1968.

He would tell me that he was already seventeen, but still had a curfew (宵禁). He believed he was practically an adult. I pointed out that he was not an adult as he was still in high school. “You don’t trust me!” he yelled. Before I continued, he rolled his eyes, slammed the door and walked away. I sighed. How could I make Jordan see that I only wanted to keep him safe? I decided to go for a walk, hoping the December air would clear my head. I opened the front door and nearly stepped on her: a small black cat, just like a meatball. “Hi, Meatball,” I said, bringing her into my arms. I walked back in, touching her neck gently. Meatball seemed happy enough to come in the house, but after an hour or two, she sat by the door, meowing to go back outside. “Why won’t she just stay in with us all the time?” Nathan, my youngest son asked. I explained to him that she was happy here but she liked being able to come and go as she pleased. “That must be nice,” Jordan muttered from the other room, complaining why the cat, not him, could come and go. He even asked me to give Meatball a curfew. Meatball became a regular. One night, temperatures were unusually low. Meatball stood at the door, meowing to go outside. I shook my head at her, afraid that she might freeze to death. She stared at me and meowed again. I patted her head, “I know you’re not happy, but it’s for your own good.” “Mom’s not being mean to you,” Nathan told the cat. “She’s just trying to keep you from turning into a frozen meatball.” We both laughed at his joke. The next morning, I couldn’t find Meatball. I asked the kids if anyone had seen her. 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。 Jordan nodded, “I let her out last night.” ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As I drove to the animal hospital, Jordan sat in the back, holding Meatball inside his coat. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Jordan nodded, “I let her out last night.” My mouth dropped open. “She was outside all night?” I was so furious, “It was freezing and she could die!” Jordan choked back his words, stunned. I grabbed my coat and rushed outside. Jordan followed, fear welling up in his eyes. Several minutes later, the poor thing was found, shaking and curling into a tiny ball. I picked her up, unsure whether she was alive or dead. Jordan was scared, “We need a vet! Now!” As I drove to the animal hospital, Jordan sat in the back, holding Meatball inside his coat. I could hear him talking to the cat, apologizing repeatedly. Luckily, the vet saved Meatball. Seeing her eyes open, Jordan stroked her head, all tears. Then, surprisingly, he turned to me. He apologized for what he had done. “I know you just want to keep me safe,” he murmured. I felt a lump in my throat. He rubbed Meatball’s back, “Looks like we are both going to observe the curfew. It’s for our own good.” 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者的儿子抱怨作者不让他晚上外出，但是在通过猫被夜里放出而差点被冻死的事情后，他儿子终于明白作者不让他出去是为了他的安全着想。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①.由第一段首句内容：乔丹点点头，“我昨晚放她出来的。”可知，第一段可描写猫被放出去后他们去寻找的过程以及猫被找到后的状态。 ②.由第二段首句内容：“当我开车去动物医院的时候，乔丹坐在后面，把肉球放在外套里。”可知，第二段可描写他们将猫送去救治的过程以及乔丹的懊悔。 2.续写线索：去找猫——发现猫——发现猫状态不对——送去救治——猫得救——乔丹懊悔 3.词汇激活（一个词汇要写出相近的表达） 行为类 ①.抓住：grab/grasp ②.轻抚：stroke/ pet ③.拯救：save/ rescue 情绪类 ①.非常愤怒： so furious / so angry ②.恐惧的：scared/ terrified 【点睛】[高分句型1] As I drove to the animal hospital, Jordan sat in the back, holding Meatball inside his coat.（运用了as引导的时间状语从句） [高分句型2].
