A. $5 B. $15 C. $18 D. $ 20 B Finnish Lapland, in the far north of Europe, is home to some 180,000 people and around 200,000 reindeer (驯鹿). The animals live wild but each one has an owner, identified by a mark on its ear. Anne Ollila, 50, one of 4,000 such owners, works in the Finnish part of this region with her husband and two adult sons and their families. They farm the animals mainly for meat, but reindeer tourism has also become an important source of income. Ollila lives 80 kilometres inside the Arctic Circle, an hour from Lapland’s capital city, Rovaniemi, and seven kilometres from her nearest neighbour. Summer days — when the reindeer raisers earmark newborn reindeer — are long and in June the sun never sets. At that time Ollila sleeps during the day and walks up to 20 kilometres a night through the forest, making the most of the cooler temperatures to do her work but having to endure large groups of insects along the way. In deepest winter, there is little daylight. Many grasslands are frozen and the reindeer move into the forest for protection against wolves and golden eagles — the birds can kill an adult reindeer. Ollila and her family offer tourists reindeer experiences through their company Reindeer Journey. Visitors can get close to the animals in the wild or at their farm, watching them being trained to pull sledges (雪橇) or take a sleigh ride. “Reindeer are very smart animals,” Ollila says. “They have different personalities, and some are very funny.” One of her favourites is Rocky, named after the movie boxing legend. “He’s very curious and always in trouble,” she says. “He once got himself stuck in tree branches and had to be lifted out, and he has been known to walk off with his owners’ drying underwear.” Ollila gave up her job as a sociology researcher at the University of Lapland in 2010 to devote herself to raising reindeer. “I love the environment, the animals and the freedom,” she says. “Also, I have a sense of belonging to something bigger than me, to a way of life through the generations.” 4. What does the underlined word “endure” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Go away with. B. Catch up with. C. Look forward to. D. Put up with. 5. Why do the reindeer move into the forest in winter according to the text? A. To get earmarked. B. To find their owners. C To protect themselves. D. To avoid cold temperatures. 6 What does Ollila think of Rocky? A. He is foolish. B. He is a troublemaker. C. He is interested in planting trees. D. He is a famous filmmaker. 7. What can we infer about Ollila from the last paragraph? A. She has a deep affection for nature. B. She has long been tired of raising reindeer. C. She has been a sociology researcher since 2010. D. She had no chance to receive a college education. C Over the years, movies and books have used tornadoes to sweep their characters off to magical lands, to destroy entire cities, or to defeat a superhero’s dangerous super villain (恶棍). All of these tornadoes have one thing in common: They are incredibly powerful. They can have wind speeds over 300 miles per hour (mph), grow over a mile wide, and travel over 50 miles. They are incredibly dangerous and should be avoided at all costs. Scientists can’t go inside tornadoes, which means that they are extremely hard to research. As a result, we know surprisingly little about them. In order to tell how powerful a tornado is, scientists look at how much destruction it causes. Scientists then rank the tornado on the Enhanced Fujita Scale (级别) (EF-Scale), which ranges from EF0 to EF5. For example, a tornado that only damages trees but doesn’t significantly damage buildings would be rated EFO with wind speeds between 65 and 85 mph. A tornado that blows away buildings and tears up sidewalks, on the other hand, would be rated EF5 with wind speeds over 200 mph. The most powerful tornado in United States history occurred near Oklahoma City in1999. It had wind speeds over 310 mph, the highest wind speed ever recorded on Earth. A tornado with wind speeds that high can not only pick up and throw automobiles, but also knock over trains and tear up roadways. Luckily for anyone living in an area that experiences the occasional tornadoes, they usually only last one to ten minutes. More powerful tornadoes can last over an hour in the right conditions, but they are very rare. If you find yourself experiencing a tornado, find a safe place inside, like an interior hall, basement or closet. Stay away from windows and heavy objects that could fall on you, and lie on your stomach with your hands protecting the back of your head. Having a tornado emergency plan is extremely important as tornadoes can appear very quickly. Make sure to listen to the radio or television to stay updated on serious weather patterns in your area. 8. Which of the following is probably the wind speed of an EF4 tornado? A. 65 mph. B. 85 mph. C. 200 mph. D. 310 mph. 9. What can we learn from the example given in paragraph 3? A. Tornadoes can do great harm. B. American cars need developing. C. Oklahoma City had no trains in 1999. D. The strongest tornado occurred in the UK. 10. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. What a tornado is. B. How a tornado forms. C. Tips to survive a tornado. D. How to recognize a tornado. 11. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. A guidebook to the USA. B. An introduction to a historical book. C. A review of famous movies. D. An article on natural disasters. D When Adele released (发行) her 2011 single Someone Like You, this bittersweet song is popular with millions worldwide. More than a decade later, it remains one of her most popular songs. Her artistry, as well as that of many others who have mastered the art of making listeners feel moved with slow and emotional beats, has a way of managing the emotional pain of heartbreak and loss. Listening to favorite songs could also reduce people’s feelings of pain, according to a new study published in the journal Frontiers in Pain Research. And the most effective pain relievers were found to be sad songs detailing bittersweet and emotional experiences. “It doesn’t take the place of medicine when you have a headache, but music can help reduce your pain,” said Patrick Stroman, a professor at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario. He didn’t join in the study. “Unlike other medications,” he noted, “there is no side effect or risk in listening to music (just keep the volume at a reasonable level).” The small study invited 63 young adults to bring one of their favorite songs. The researchers also had the young adults pick one of seven songs that the team considered relaxing and were unfamiliar to the study participants. All the while, the researchers stuck a hot object — similar to the pain of a boiling hot teacup on the participants’ skin — to their left inner forearms. When rating their experiences, people were more likely to report feeling less pain when listening to their favorite songs compared with hearing the unfamiliar relaxing songs. With millions of songs available, one person’s favorite song is likely not the same as another. After interviewing the participants about the song they brought and their rating of pain, the researchers found people who listened to bittersweet and moving songs felt less pain than when they listened to songs with calming or cheerful themes (主题). “It’s a very cool result,” said lead study author Darius Valevicius, a doctoral student of neurosciences at the University of Montreal. “I think it’s why I myself and probably many people choose to listen to bittersweet or even spiritual music.” 12. Why does the author mention Adele in the first paragraph? A. To reach a conclusion. B. To lead in the topic. C. To offer a suggestion. D. To provide the background. 13. What is Stroman’s attitude to the effect of listening to music? A. Doubtful. B. Positive. C. Unclear. D. Unconcerned. 14. What did the participants do in the new study? A. They reported their feelings of pain. B. They interviewed many musicians. C. They made various kinds of teacups. D. They picked out the music they don't like. 15. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. When Is the Best Time to Listen to Music? B. How Do You Create Popular Songs Quickly? C. The Best Way to Reduce Pain Might Be to Write Music D. Certain Types of Music Could Help You Feel Less Pain 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。 When learning English, you may find it difficult to improve your listening.

I was good at the long jump and running. As a result, I was chosen to represent the school in the long jump and relay events at the District Sports Meet. The event lasted two days. With no competitions for me on the first day, I cheered on my teammates and watched other athletes. Seeing our team do well in various events was encouraging. The successes of our team were not just victories; they were a source of inspiration. Each triumph (获胜) by our athletes was met with a round of applause and shouts of joy from our cheering section. Their achievements fueled my own motivation, and I could feel the excitement building within me. I was ready for my events. On the second day, my long jump event was scheduled for the early afternoon. I felt confident, but when I got there I realized there were a lot of talented athletes. There was one young athlete in particular who jumped extremely far, wearing spikes (钉子鞋), making it harder for the rest of us. I was very nervous. At the end of the race, I tried my best, and although I jumped a good distance, I twisted (扭伤) my foot. I finished fourth, just missing out on a medal. That was disappointing, but I reminded myself that we still had a chance in the 8×50 m relay, for which I was assigned to run the fifth leg. The race time arrived. We filed into our assigned spots and prepared for the race. After a tense minute or so, I heard the starter’s gun go off. When the first runners took off, I held my breath and watched our team runners keep up with the others. As they got closer, I realized we were at least in second place. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 My turn arrived, I nervously took the baton (接力棒) and began my run. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ At last I lost the race, but when I got to the end, my team was there, still cheering me on. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1～5 ACABC 6～10 CBAAB 11～15 CCACB 16～20 ABCBA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024～2025学年高二年级第一次月考试卷 英语 考生注意： 1. 本试卷分选择题和非选择题两部分。满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2. 答题前，考生务必用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔将密封线内项目填写清楚。 3. 考生作答时，请将答案答在答题卡上。选择题每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑；非选择题请用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔在答题卡上各题的答题区域内作答，超出答题区域书写的答案无效，在试题卷、草稿纸上作答无效。 4. 本卷命题范围：人教版选择性必修第一册Units 1～3。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

You can buy a 7-day vehicle permit for $15, with each additional day for $3.(停车费：一天的停车费是5美元。你可以花15美元买一张7天的车辆许可证，每多花一天3美元。)”可知，在公园里停车7天费用是15美元，多加一天是3美元，停8天至少需要花费18美元。故选C。 B Finnish Lapland, in the far north of Europe, is home to some 180,000 people and around 200,000 reindeer (驯鹿).

Visitors can get close to the animals in the wild or at their farm, watching them being trained to pull sledges (雪橇) or take a sleigh ride. “Reindeer are very smart animals,” Ollila says. “They have different personalities, and some are very funny.” One of her favourites is Rocky, named after the movie boxing legend. “He’s very curious and always in trouble,” she says. “He once got himself stuck in tree branches and had to be lifted out, and he has been known to walk off with his owners’ drying underwear.” Ollila gave up her job as a sociology researcher at the University of Lapland in 2010 to devote herself to raising reindeer. “I love the environment, the animals and the freedom,” she says. “Also, I have a sense of belonging to something bigger than me, to a way of life through the generations.” 4. What does the underlined word “endure” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Go away with. B. Catch up with. C. Look forward to. D. Put up with. 5. Why do the reindeer move into the forest in winter according to the text? A. To get earmarked. B. To find their owners. C. To protect themselves. D. To avoid cold temperatures. 6. What does Ollila think of Rocky? A. He is foolish. B. He is a troublemaker. C. He is interested in planting trees. D. He is a famous filmmaker. 7. What can we infer about Ollila from the last paragraph? A. She has a deep affection for nature. B. She has long been tired of raising reindeer. C. She has been a sociology researcher since 2010. D. She had no chance to receive a college education. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Anne Ollila和她家人饲养驯鹿的故事。 【4题详解】 词义猜测题。根据画线词前“At that time Ollila sleeps during the day and walks up to 20 kilometres a night through the forest, making the most of the cooler temperatures to do her work but having to(在那个时候，奥利拉白天睡觉，晚上步行20公里穿过森林，充分利用较低的温度来完成她的工作，但不得不这样做)”及画线词后“large groups of insects along the way.(沿途有一大群昆虫)”可推断，奥利拉一路上不得不忍受大群的昆虫。画线词的意思和put up with“忍受”最接近。Go away with意为“携带某物离开”；Catch up with意为“追上，赶上”；Look forward to 意为“期待”。故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“In deepest winter, there is little daylight. Many grasslands are frozen and the reindeer move into the forest for protection against wolves and golden eagles— the birds can kill an adult reindeer.(在深冬，几乎没有日光。许多草原都被冻结了，驯鹿为了躲避狼和金雕而进入森林——金雕可以杀死一只成年驯鹿”可知，驯鹿在冬天进入森林是为了保护自己。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“One of her favourites is Rocky, named after the movie boxing legend. “He’s very curious and always in trouble,” she says. “He once got himself stuck in tree branches and had to be lifted out, and he has been known to walk off with his owners’ drying underwear.”(她最喜欢的一个是洛基，以电影拳击传奇人物的名字命名。“他很好奇，总是惹麻烦，”她说。“它曾经被困在树枝上，不得不被人抬出来，它还曾偷走主人正在晾晒的内衣。”)”可知，Ollila认为Rocky总是闯祸。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Ollila gave up her job as a sociology researcher at the University of Lapland in 2010 to devote herself to raising reindeer. “I love the environment, the animals and the freedom,” she says.(2010年，奥利拉放弃了拉普兰大学社会学研究员的工作，全身心地投入到驯鹿饲养中。“我喜欢这里的环境、动物和自由，”她说。)”可推断，Ollila对大自然有着深厚的感情。故选A。 C Over the years, movies and books have used tornadoes to sweep their characters off to magical lands, to destroy entire cities, or to defeat a superhero’s dangerous super villain (恶棍). All of these tornadoes have one thing in common: They are incredibly powerful. They can have wind speeds over 300 miles per hour (mph), grow over a mile wide, and travel over 50 miles. They are incredibly dangerous and should be avoided at all costs. Scientists can’t go inside tornadoes, which means that they are extremely hard to research. As a result, we know surprisingly little about them. In order to tell how powerful a tornado is, scientists look at how much destruction it causes. Scientists then rank the tornado on the Enhanced Fujita Scale (级别) (EF-Scale), which ranges from EF0 to EF5. For example, a tornado that only damages trees but doesn’t significantly damage buildings would be rated EFO with wind speeds between 65 and 85 mph. A tornado that blows away buildings and tears up sidewalks, on the other hand, would be rated EF5 with wind speeds over 200 mph. The most powerful tornado in United States history occurred near Oklahoma City in1999. It had wind speeds over 310 mph, the highest wind speed ever recorded on Earth. A tornado with wind speeds that high can not only pick up and throw automobiles, but also knock over trains and tear up roadways. Luckily for anyone living in an area that experiences the occasional tornadoes, they usually only last one to ten minutes. More powerful tornadoes can last over an hour in the right conditions, but they are very rare. If you find yourself experiencing a tornado, find a safe place inside, like an interior hall, basement or closet. Stay away from windows and heavy objects that could fall on you, and lie on your stomach with your hands protecting the back of your head. Having a tornado emergency plan is extremely important as tornadoes can appear very quickly. Make sure to listen to the radio or television to stay updated on serious weather patterns in your area. 8. Which of the following is probably the wind speed of an EF4 tornado? A. 65 mph. B. 85 mph. C. 200 mph. D. 310 mph. 9. What can we learn from the example given in paragraph 3? A. Tornadoes can do great harm. B. American cars need developing. C. Oklahoma City had no trains in 1999. D. The strongest tornado occurred in the UK. 10. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. What a tornado is. B. How a tornado forms. C. Tips to survive a tornado. D. How to recognize a tornado. 11. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. A guidebook to the USA. B. An introduction to a historical book. C. A review of famous movies. D. An article on natural disasters. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了什么是龙卷风以及如何应对龙卷风。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“A tornado that blows away buildings and tears up sidewalks, on the other hand, would be rated EF5 with wind speeds over 200 mph.(另一方面，吹走建筑物并撕裂人行道的龙卷风将被评为EF5级，风速超过200英里/小时。)”可知，EF4级别的龙卷风风速可能是200 mph左右。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“It had wind speeds over 310 mph, the highest wind speed ever recorded on Earth. A tornado with wind speeds that high can not only pick up and throw automobiles, but also knock over trains and tear up roadways.(它的风速超过每小时310英里，是地球上有记录以来的最高风速。风速如此之高的龙卷风不仅可以卷起并抛起汽车，还可以撞倒火车，撕毁道路。)”可知，本段的例子告诉我们：龙卷风的危害很大。故选A项。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“If you find yourself experiencing a tornado, find a safe place inside, like an interior hall, basement or closet. Stay away from windows and heavy objects that could fall on you, and lie on your stomach with your hands protecting the back of your head. Having a tornado emergency plan is extremely important as tornadoes can appear very quickly. Make sure to listen to the radio or television to stay updated on serious weather patterns in your area.(如果你发现自己正在经历龙卷风，在室内找一个安全的地方，比如室内大厅、地下室或壁橱。远离窗户和可能砸到你的重物，趴着用手保护后脑勺。有一个龙卷风应急计划是非常重要的，因为龙卷风会很快出现。一定要收听广播或电视，及时了解你所在地区恶劣天气的最新情况。)”可知，本段主要介绍了如何在龙卷风中幸存的小贴士。故选C项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文以及根据第一段“All of these tornadoes have one thing in common: They can have wind speeds over 300 miles per hour (mph), grow over a mile wide, and travel over 50 miles. They are incredibly dangerous and should be avoided at all costs.(所有这些龙卷风都有一个共同点:它们的风速可以超过每小时300英里(每小时300英里)，生长宽度超过一英里，行进距离超过50英里。它们非常危险，应该不惜一切代价避免。)”可知，文章主要介绍了什么是龙卷风以及如何应对龙卷风。所以来自一篇关于自然灾害的文章。故选D项。 D When Adele released (发行) her 2011 single Someone Like You, this bittersweet song is popular with millions worldwide. More than a decade later, it remains one of her most popular songs. Her artistry, as well as that of many others who have mastered the art of making listeners feel moved with slow and emotional beats, has a way of managing the emotional pain of heartbreak and loss. Listening to favorite songs could also reduce people’s feelings of pain, according to a new study published in the journal Frontiers in Pain Research. And the most effective pain relievers were found to be sad songs detailing bittersweet and emotional experiences. “It doesn’t take the place of medicine when you have a headache, but music can help reduce your pain,” said Patrick Stroman, a professor at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario. He didn’t join in the study. “Unlike other medications,” he noted, “there is no side effect or risk in listening to music (just keep the volume at a reasonable level).” The small study invited 63 young adults to bring one of their favorite songs. The researchers also had the young adults pick one of seven songs that the team considered relaxing and were unfamiliar to the study participants. All the while, the researchers stuck a hot object — similar to the pain of a boiling hot teacup on the participants’ skin — to their left inner forearms. When rating their experiences, people were more likely to report feeling less pain when listening to their favorite songs compared with hearing the unfamiliar relaxing songs. With millions of songs available, one person’s favorite song is likely not the same as another. After interviewing the participants about the song they brought and their rating of pain, the researchers found people who listened to bittersweet and moving songs felt less pain than when they listened to songs with calming or cheerful themes (主题). “It’s a very cool result,” said lead study author Darius Valevicius, a doctoral student of neurosciences at the University of Montreal. “I think it’s why I myself and probably many people choose to listen to bittersweet or even spiritual music.” 12. Why does the author mention Adele in the first paragraph? A. To reach a conclusion. B. To lead in the topic. C. To offer a suggestion. D. To provide the background. 13. What is Stroman’s attitude to the effect of listening to music? A. Doubtful. B. Positive. C. Unclear. D. Unconcerned. 14. What did the participants do in the new study? A They reported their feelings of pain. B. They interviewed many musicians. C. They made various kinds of teacups. D. They picked out the music they don't like. 15. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. When Is the Best Time to Listen to Music? B. How Do You Create Popular Songs Quickly? C. The Best Way to Reduce Pain Might Be to Write Music D. Certain Types of Music Could Help You Feel Less Pain 【答案】12. B 13. B 14. A 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项研究发现——某些类型的音乐能够帮助你减轻痛苦。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“When Adele released (发行) her 2011 single Someone Like You, this bittersweet song is popular with millions worldwide. More than a decade later, it remains one of her most popular songs. Her artistry, as well as that of many others who have mastered the art of making listeners feel moved with slow and emotional beats, has a way of managing the emotional pain of heartbreak and loss.(当阿黛尔在2011年发行单曲《Someone Like You》时，这首苦乐参半的歌曲受到了全球数百万人的欢迎。十多年后，这首歌仍然是她最受欢迎的歌曲之一。她的艺术，以及其他许多掌握了用缓慢而情绪化的节奏让听众感到感动的艺术的人，有一种管理心碎和失去的情感痛苦的方法。)”可推断，作者在第一段提到Adele是为了引出话题，说明她的音乐能够引起听众的情感共鸣，并引出音乐对减轻疼痛的研究。故选B项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段““It doesn’t take the place of medicine when you have a headache, but music can help reduce your pain,” said Patrick Stroman, a professor at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario. He didn’t join in the study. “Unlike other medications,” he noted, “there is no side effect or risk in listening to music (just keep the volume at a reasonable level).(当你头痛时，音乐不能代替药物，但音乐可以帮助减轻你的疼痛，”安大略省金斯敦皇后大学的教授帕特里克·斯特罗斯曼说。他没有参加这项研究。“与其他药物不同，”他指出，“听音乐没有副作用或风险(只需将音量保持在合理的水平)。”)”可知，Stroman对于听音乐减轻痛苦的效果持“肯定的”态度。故选B项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“When rating their experiences, people were more likely to report feeling less pain when listening to their favorite songs compared with hearing the unfamiliar relaxing songs.(在评价他们的体验时，与听不熟悉的放松歌曲相比，人们更有可能在听自己喜欢的歌曲时感到更少的痛苦)”可知，研究的参与者会在实验中报告他们对于痛苦的感受。故选A项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Listening to favorite songs could also reduce people’s feelings of pain, according to a new study published in the journal Frontiers in Pain Research. And the most effective pain relievers were found to be sad songs detailing bittersweet and emotional experiences.(根据发表在《疼痛研究前沿》杂志上的一项新研究，听喜欢的歌曲也可以减少人们的疼痛感。研究发现，最有效的止痛药是描述苦乐参半和情感经历的悲伤歌曲。)”可知，某些类型的音乐能够帮助你减轻痛苦。故短文的标题为“某些类型的音乐可以帮助你减轻疼痛”。故选D项。 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。 When learning English, you may find it difficult to improve your listening.

As a result, I was chosen to represent the school in the long jump and relay events at the District Sports Meet. The event lasted two days. With no competitions for me on the first day, I cheered on my teammates and watched other athletes. Seeing our team do well in various events was encouraging. The successes of our team were not just victories; they were a source of inspiration. Each triumph (获胜) by our athletes was met with a round of applause and shouts of joy from our cheering section. Their achievements fueled my own motivation, and I could feel the excitement building within me. I was ready for my events. On the second day, my long jump event was scheduled for the early afternoon. I felt confident, but when I got there I realized there were a lot of talented athletes. There was one young athlete in particular who jumped extremely far, wearing spikes (钉子鞋), making it harder for the rest of us. I was very nervous. At the end of the race, I tried my best, and although I jumped a good distance, I twisted (扭伤) my foot. I finished fourth, just missing out on a medal. That was disappointing, but I reminded myself that we still had a chance in the 8×50 m relay, for which I was assigned to run the fifth leg. The race time arrived. We filed into our assigned spots and prepared for the race. After a tense minute or so, I heard the starter’s gun go off. When the first runners took off, I held my breath and watched our team runners keep up with the others. As they got closer, I realized we were at least in second place. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 My turn arrived, I nervously took the baton (接力棒) and began my run. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ At last I lost the race, but when I got to the end, my team was there, still cheering me on. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: My turn arrived, I nervously took the baton (接力棒) and began my run. I ran forward, giving it my all, but then I stumbled and fell down. I felt a quick pain and my heart sank. The race looked like it was getting away. The noise from the crowd disappeared as I struggled. But my friends’ calls for me to stand up cut through the silence. I saw the other runners moving fast, and I knew I had to keep going. At last I lost the race, but when I got to the end, my team was there, still cheering me on. They were proud of my behavior instead of being disappointed, just as I was proud of my efforts. Even though I didn’t get a medal in the long jump or the relay, I showed I could keep going even when things were hard. I had faced challenges and pushed through, showing my courage. The applause from the crowd was a reward which meant more than any medal. The true victory is in the effort, not just the result. 【解析】 【导语】本文以作者参加体育比赛的经历为线索展开，讲述了作者在区运动会上先后参加跳远和接力赛的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容 “轮到我了，我紧张地接过接力棒，开始奔跑。” 可知，第一段可描写作者在接力赛中遇到的困难以及自己的反应。 ②由第二段首句内容 “最后我输了比赛，但当我到达终点时，我的队友们还在那里，依然为我欢呼。” 可知，第二段可描写作者在赛后的感悟。 2. 续写线索：接过接力棒 —— 奔跑 —— 摔倒 —— 挣扎 —— 听到队友呼喊 —— 继续跑 —— 输掉比赛 —— 队友欢呼 —— 感悟 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①摔倒：fall down/tumble ②挣扎：struggle/flounder ③欢呼：cheer/applaud 情绪类 ①失望：be disappointed/feel let down ②自豪：be proud/take pride in 【点睛】[高分句型 1] The noise from the crowd disappeared as I struggled.（使用了as引导时间状语从句以及介词短语作定语） [高分句型 2] I had faced challenges and pushed through, showing my courage.（使用了现在分词短语做状语） 听力1～5 ACABC 6～10 CBAAB 11～15 CCACB 16～20 ABCBA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
