B Food vlogger Julia Pacheco undertook an ambitious challenge to see if she could sustain herself on just $ 10 for an entire week, covering all meals from breakfast to dinner. The aim was not only to test the feasibility (可行性) of such a tight budget but also to explore how it would affect her overall well-being by the end of the week. Julia ’s journey began with a strategic shopping trip to Walmart, where she carefully selected key ingredients to maximize both her budget and nutritional intake. This initial phase set the tone for the week, showcasing the importance of planning in budget-friendly eating. Julia ’s grocery list included affordable staples (主食) like pasta brown rice, mixed vegetables, bread, lentils, pinto beans, and some fresh produce such as apples, tomatoes, onions, and garlic. These items were chosen for their versatility (多用途) and nutritional value. The total cost of these groceries perfectly hit the $10 mark, setting the stage for a week of simple yet thoughtful meal planning. This careful selection was crucial as it laid the foundation for her entire week’s living. For the first five days, the mum’s breakfast routine consisted of oatmeal flavoured with apple. This choice was not only cost-effective but also provided a warm, hearty start to her day. On the last two days, Julia switched things up by having boiled eggs on toast, adding variety within budget. These breakfast options demonstrated that even on a tight budget, one could enjoy a wholesome and satisfying start to the day. By cooking large portions and storing them for later, she minimized waste and ensured she always had a meal ready, reducing the desire to snack unnecessarily. This approach also highlighted the importance of planning and preparation when working with a limited budget. Throughout the week, she felt full and content, proving that it’s possible to maintain a healthy diet even on a tight budget. Julia’s experience showed the potential to eat well with limited financial resources. 4. Why did Julia undertake the $10 challenge? A. To see if she could survive on a strict budget. B. To develop budget-friendly eating habits. C. To test the quality of food at Walmart. D. To promote a new way of living. 5. What can we know about the grocery list that Julia chose? A. It fitted her budget and nutrition. B. It was full of her favourite staples. C. It was too complicated. D. It was out of a random choice. 6. How did Julia manage to reduce waste during her challenge? A. By skipping breakfast. B. By preparing less staples. C. By cooking more food each time. D. By snacking unnecessarily. 7. How was Julia’ s overall experience during the challenge? A she struggled with her budget. B. she found it tough to continue. C. she ate well and felt satisfied. D. she suffered hunger sometimes. C We all notice bright colors. People who choose to go eye-catching whether they express themselves through clothes or accessories (配饰), hear everything from “No one is going to miss you at the party” to “I would never have the courage to wear that.” But according to research, those comments may be both accurate and expected. Adam D. Pazda and Christopher A. Thorstenson (2019) examined how we perceive people at first impression who wear bright colors. They specifically examined the effect of chroma (色度). They found that targets, both male and female, who were wearing or surrounded by high-chroma colors were perceived as more open and outgoing than in a low-chroma setting. They concluded that chroma is a variable of perception that can influence first impressions of personality. Drilling down further, they found that high-chroma colors strengthened viewer perspective of openness and extraversion (外向), but not other personalities. These observations are important because some job responsibilities capitalize on some of the personalities inferred through bright colors. Pazda and Thorstenson recognize what job seekers no doubt consider as they look for a career to match their personal nature: in some occupations, success is fueled by possessing certain personality qualities. They give examples of industries such as sales and marketing as well as customer service as fields where extraverts thrive (繁荣). Accordingly, applicants for these positions may be viewed more favorably and judged as more competent if they wear highly chromatic clothing. Regarding the generality of their results, Pazda and Thorstenson note that one of the limitations of their study was their use of participants living in the United States, which means their findings may not predict results in other cultures. They note the possibility that chroma may influence the perception of personality differently in non-Western countries, and that high-chroma clothing may be perceived as at odds with social norms in other cultures. The practical takeaway, at least in the United States, appears to be that bright colors, like the peacock’s tail, will get you noticed. But depending on your goals, consider tailoring your chroma to the circumstances, personally and professionally. 8. What is the focus of the study mentioned in the passage? A. The cultural implications of high chroma colors. B. The influence of clothing on viewer perceptions. C. The connection between clothing and job suitability. D. The impact of high chroma colors on first impression. 9. What does the underlined phrase “capitalize on” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Draw on. B. Approve of. C. Subscribe to. D. Dig up. 10. Which might be a limitation of the study? A. The culturally specific findings. B. The unmonitored research process. C. The outdated data analysis methods. D. The relatively insufficient theoretical basis. 11. What is the practical advice given by the author in the last paragraph? A. Reserve bright colors for social events. B. Always wear bright colors to be noticed. C. Avoid bright colors in professional settings. D. Use bright colors strategically based on your goals. D In recent decades, experiments have begun to catch up with what people who work closely with animals have always known—that animals have an inner life, and consciousness isn’t uniquely human. Consciousness is a concept that is extremely difficult to define. There have been many attempts: is it awareness, or awareness of that awareness, or self-awareness instead? But a useful working definition might be that it is any kind of subjective experience, ranging from how we perceive the external world to our inner thoughts and emotions. Because you can never be inside another living being’s head, questions of consciousness are both hard to answer and open to bias (偏见). Findings of experiments inspired a group of scientists in April to write The New York Declaration Animal Consciousness, which now has over 300 supporters. It states that there is “strong scientific support for conscious experience” in mammals and birds and “at least a realistic possibility of conscious experience” in fish and other species. That animals have some form of inner life must surely be self-evident to many people who live or work with them, just as I would guess that most carers of newborn babies don’t see these infant as senseless automatic machines. The experiences of people with thorough knowledge of either have historically, been viewed as subjective and biased, as emotional connection tends to influence logical reasoning. Our consciousness leads us to over-empathize with others we cannot truly know, the argument goes. But, as the biologist Marc Bekoff wrote, if we humans have something, then other animals are likely to have it too. I personally feel that attempts to divorce emotion, feeling and experience from how we see animals can be as unscientific. For too long, we assumed that humans are unique and animals don’t feel pain or emotions the way that we do, a convenient but cruel null hypothesis (无效假设), when we could have started from the position that perhaps they do instead. 12. Which is a key characteristic of consciousness according to the passage? A. It means any emotional experience of humans. B It refers to individual’s subjective experience. C. It is all about how we perceive the external world. D. It refers to a common quality shared by all animals. 13. Why are the carers of newborn babies mentioned? A. To show that animals are just as conscious as human babies. B. To help readers understand why animals possess consciousness. C. To argue against the view of people living or working with animals. D. To explain why animal carers would assume animals have an inner life. 14. What might be the author’s attitude towards Marc Bckoff’s assumption about animal emotions? A. Doubtful. B. Objective. C. Supportive. D. Uncertain. 15. which can be the best title of the passage? A. Consciousness Improved Through Practice B. Questions of Human Consciousness Answered C. Factors Affecting Animal Consciousness Discovered D. Conscious Experience Found in Certain Animal Species 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 。 Rejection creates an emotional roller coaster.

With the drama festival approaching, the school’s drama club had released a notice for the dancer audition (试镜) for The Twelve Dancing Princesses. And of course I was the first one to sign up. As I left the stage after my audition at school, I could feel it. The power. The future. I knew that someday when dancers’ magazines wrote about me, they would say this moment was when my rise to a star began. My ballet slippers hurt my feet, but I figured that was helpful. In The Twelve Dancing Princesses, the princesses danced all night so they probably had foot pain, too. My performance was more genuine because of my pain. I needed to show my devotion even when I wasn’t on stage, so I approached Mr. Ellison, the drama club advisor. He told me that casting (角色分配) will be posted tomorrow.“ Thank you, sir,” I said, using the almost British pronunciation of Hollywood stars in the 1940s. I was so sure that Mr. Ellison would cast me as a princess. The next morning, I went to read the cast list. The twelve princesses were first, by number. I scanned from One to Twelve, but none by me. At the bottom of the casting list, my name finally appeared. My role was a really small one, an old woman who helped a soldier, not one of the princesses! I was desperately disappointed. Mr. Ellison must have made a mistake! No one else in the school had my skills or preparation!. I found him in his classroom, but he insisted there was no mistake and emphasized that every role in a play was important. Unable to accept the fact, I burst into tears. Mr. Ellison managed to calm me down and encouraged me to have a try in the rehearsal (排练). 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。 The next day, I dragged myself to the rehearsal. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, the great day arrived and “the old woman” couldn’t wait to get on stage. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024-2025学年莆田第二十五中学 高三上英语 期中考 全卷满分 150分,考试时间 120分钟 注意事项： 1. 答题前,先将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在试卷和答题卡上,并将条形码粘贴在答题卡上 的指定位置 。 2. 请按题号顺序在答题卡上各题目的答题区域内作答,写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非 答题区域均无效 。 3. 选择题用 2B铅笔在答题卡上把所选答案的标号涂黑;非选择题用黑色签字笔在答题卡上作答;字体工 整,笔迹清楚 。 4. 考试结束后,请将试卷和答题卡一并上交 。 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-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-小题。每段对话仅读 -遍 。 例 : How much is the shirt?

The aim was not only to test the feasibility (可行性) of such a tight budget but also to explore how it would affect her overall well-being by the end of the week. Julia ’s journey began with a strategic shopping trip to Walmart, where she carefully selected key ingredients to maximize both her budget and nutritional intake. This initial phase set the tone for the week, showcasing the importance of planning in budget-friendly eating. Julia ’s grocery list included affordable staples (主食) like pasta, brown rice, mixed vegetables, bread, lentils, pinto beans, and some fresh produce such as apples, tomatoes, onions, and garlic. These items were chosen for their versatility (多用途) and nutritional value. The total cost of these groceries perfectly hit the $10 mark, setting the stage for a week of simple yet thoughtful meal planning. This careful selection was crucial as it laid the foundation for her entire week’s living. For the first five days, the mum’s breakfast routine consisted of oatmeal flavoured with apple. This choice was not only cost-effective but also provided a warm, hearty start to her day. On the last two days, Julia switched things up by having boiled eggs on toast, adding variety within budget. These breakfast options demonstrated that even on a tight budget, one could enjoy a wholesome and satisfying start to the day. By cooking large portions and storing them for later, she minimized waste and ensured she always had a meal ready, reducing the desire to snack unnecessarily. This approach also highlighted the importance of planning and preparation when working with a limited budget. Throughout the week, she felt full and content, proving that it’s possible to maintain a healthy diet even on a tight budget. Julia’s experience showed the potential to eat well with limited financial resources. 4. Why did Julia undertake the $10 challenge? A. To see if she could survive on a strict budget. B. To develop budget-friendly eating habits. C. To test the quality of food at Walmart. D. To promote a new way of living. 5. What can we know about the grocery list that Julia chose? A. It fitted her budget and nutrition. B. It was full of her favourite staples. C. It was too complicated. D. It was out of a random choice. 6. How did Julia manage to reduce waste during her challenge? A. By skipping breakfast. B. By preparing less staples. C. By cooking more food each time. D. By snacking unnecessarily. 7. How was Julia’ s overall experience during the challenge? A. she struggled with her budget. B. she found it tough to continue. C. she ate well and felt satisfied. D. she suffered hunger sometimes. 【答案】4. A 5. A 6. C 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了美食视频博主 Julia Pacheco挑战用10美元维持包括所有餐食的一周生活，以测试预算紧张的可行性和对健康的影响。通过精心挑选食材，大量烹饪和储存食物减少浪费，她证明了在有限预算下也能保持健康饮食。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Food vlogger Julia Pacheco undertook an ambitious challenge to see if she could sustain herself on just $ 10 for an entire week, covering all meals from breakfast to dinner.( 看看她能否仅用10美元维持自己一周的生活，包括从早餐到晚餐的所有膳食。)”可知，Julia接受10美元的挑战，目的是看看她能否在严格的预算下生存下来。故选A项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Julia ’s journey began with a strategic shopping trip to Walmart, where she carefully selected key ingredients to maximize both her budget and nutritional intake.( Julia的旅程始于一次战略性的沃尔玛购物之旅，在那里她精心挑选了关键原料，以最大限度地提高预算和营养摄入量。)”可知，Julia选择的购物清单符合她的预算和营养。故选A项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“By cooking large portions and storing them for later, she minimized waste and ensured she always had a meal ready, reducing the desire to snack unnecessarily.( 通过烹饪大量食物并储存起来以备后用，她将浪费降到最低，并确保她总是准备好一顿饭，减少了不必要的零食欲望。)”可知，通过每次烹饪更多的食物，Julia成功地减少了浪费。故选C项。 【7题详解】 细节理解题，根据最后一段中“Throughout the week, she felt full and content, proving that it’s possible to maintain a healthy diet even on a tight budget.( 整个星期，她觉得很饱，很满足，这证明即使预算紧张，也可以保持健康的饮食。)”可知，在整个挑战过程中，Julia吃得很好，很满足。故选C项。 C We all notice bright colors. People who choose to go eye-catching, whether they express themselves through clothes or accessories (配饰), hear everything from “No one is going to miss you at the party” to “I would never have the courage to wear that.” But according to research, those comments may be both accurate and expected. Adam D. Pazda and Christopher A. Thorstenson (2019) examined how we perceive people at first impression who wear bright colors. They specifically examined the effect of chroma (色度). They found that targets, both male and female, who were wearing or surrounded by high-chroma colors were perceived as more open and outgoing than in a low-chroma setting. They concluded that chroma is a variable of perception that can influence first impressions of personality. Drilling down further, they found that high-chroma colors strengthened viewer perspective of openness and extraversion (外向), but not other personalities. These observations are important because some job responsibilities capitalize on some of the personalities inferred through bright colors. Pazda and Thorstenson recognize what job seekers no doubt consider as they look for a career to match their personal nature: in some occupations, success is fueled by possessing certain personality qualities. They give examples of industries such as sales and marketing as well as customer service as fields where extraverts thrive (繁荣). Accordingly, applicants for these positions may be viewed more favorably and judged as more competent if they wear highly chromatic clothing. Regarding the generality of their results, Pazda and Thorstenson note that one of the limitations of their study was their use of participants living in the United States, which means their findings may not predict results in other cultures. They note the possibility that chroma may influence the perception of personality differently in non-Western countries, and that high-chroma clothing may be perceived as at odds with social norms in other cultures. The practical takeaway, at least in the United States, appears to be that bright colors, like the peacock’s tail, will get you noticed. But depending on your goals, consider tailoring your chroma to the circumstances, personally and professionally. 8. What is the focus of the study mentioned in the passage? A. The cultural implications of high chroma colors. B. The influence of clothing on viewer perceptions. C. The connection between clothing and job suitability. D. The impact of high chroma colors on first impression. 9. What does the underlined phrase “capitalize on” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Draw on. B. Approve of. C. Subscribe to. D. Dig up. 10. Which might be a limitation of the study? A. The culturally specific findings. B. The unmonitored research process. C. The outdated data analysis methods. D. The relatively insufficient theoretical basis. 11. What is the practical advice given by the author in the last paragraph? A. Reserve bright colors for social events. B. Always wear bright colors to be noticed. C. Avoid bright colors in professional settings. D. Use bright colors strategically based on your goals. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要探讨了穿着鲜艳颜色对第一印象的影响，介绍了有关研究的开展以及研究的发现。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Adam D. Pazda and Christopher A. Thorstenson (2019) examined how we perceive people at firs1impression who wear bright colors. They specifically examined the effect of chroma (色度).( Adam D. Pazda和Christopher A. Thorstenson（2019）研究了我们如何看待穿亮色衣服的人的第一印象。他们专门研究了色度的影响)”可知，文章中提到的研究重点是高色度色彩对第一印象的影响。故选D。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Drilling down further, they found that high-chroma colors strengthened viewer perspective of openness and extraversion (外向), but not other personalities.(进一步深入研究，他们发现高色度的颜色增强了观看者对开放性和外向性的看法，但对其他性格没有作用)”可知，上文提到研究人员发现高色度的颜色增强了观看者对开放性和外向性的看法，但对其他性格没有作用，说明一些工作职责利用了通过鲜艳的颜色推断出的一些个性。故划线词意思是“利用”draw on。故选A。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Regarding the generality of their results, Pazda and Thorstenson note that one of the limitations of their study was their use of participants living in the United States, which means their findings may not predict results in other cultures.(关于他们研究结果的普遍性，Pazda和Thorstenson指出，他们研究的局限性之一是他们使用了生活在美国的参与者，这意味着他们的研究结果可能无法预测其他文化的结果)”可知，特定文化的发现可能是这项研究的局限性。故选A。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“But depending on your goals, consider tailoring your chroma to the circumstances, personally and professionally.(但是根据你的目标，考虑根据个人和专业的情况来调整你的色度)”可知，作者在最后一段给出的实用建议是根据你的目标策略性地使用明亮的颜色。故选D。 D In recent decades, experiments have begun to catch up with what people who work closely with animals have always known—that animals have an inner life, and consciousness isn’t uniquely human. Consciousness is a concept that is extremely difficult to define. There have been many attempts: is it awareness, or awareness of that awareness, or self-awareness instead? But a useful working definition might be that it is any kind of subjective experience, ranging from how we perceive the external world to our inner thoughts and emotions. Because you can never be inside another living being’s head, questions of consciousness are both hard to answer and open to bias (偏见). Findings of experiments inspired a group of scientists in April to write The New York Declaration Animal Consciousness, which now has over 300 supporters. It states that there is “strong scientific support for conscious experience” in mammals and birds and “at least a realistic possibility of conscious experience” in fish and other species. That animals have some form of inner life must surely be self-evident to many people who live or work with them, just as I would guess that most carers of newborn babies don’t see these infant as senseless automatic machines. The experiences of people with thorough knowledge of either have historically, been viewed as subjective and biased, as emotional connection tends to influence logical reasoning. Our consciousness leads us to over-empathize with others we cannot truly know, the argument goes. But, as the biologist Marc Bekoff wrote, if we humans have something, then other animals are likely to have it too. I personally feel that attempts to divorce emotion, feeling and experience from how we see animals can be as unscientific. For too long, we assumed that humans are unique and animals don’t feel pain or emotions the way that we do, a convenient but cruel null hypothesis (无效假设), when we could have started from the position that perhaps they do instead. 12. Which is a key characteristic of consciousness according to the passage? A. It means any emotional experience of humans. B. It refers to individual’s subjective experience. C. It is all about how we perceive the external world. D. It refers to a common quality shared by all animals. 13. Why are the carers of newborn babies mentioned? A. To show that animals are just as conscious as human babies. B. To help readers understand why animals possess consciousness. C. To argue against the view of people living or working with animals. D. To explain why animal carers would assume animals have an inner life. 14. What might be the author’s attitude towards Marc Bckoff’s assumption about animal emotions? A. Doubtful. B. Objective. C. Supportive. D. Uncertain. 15. which can be the best title of the passage? A. Consciousness Improved Through Practice B. Questions of Human Consciousness Answered C. Factors Affecting Animal Consciousness Discovered D. Conscious Experience Found in Certain Animal Species 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文的体裁是说明文。文章通过介绍科学家对动物意识的实验和发现，向读者普及了关于动物意识的知识，并探讨了意识这一概念的定义和难以测量的原因。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第二段中“But a useful working definition might be that it is any kind of subjective experience, ranging from how we perceive the external world to our inner thoughts and emotions. (但一个有用的可行定义可能是，它是任何一种主观体验，从我们如何感知外部世界到我们的内心想法和情绪。)”可知，个体的主观体验是意识的关键特征。故选B。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第四段中“That animals have some form of inner life must surely be self-evident to many people who live or work with them, just as I would guess that most carers of newborn babies don’t see these infant as senseless automatic machines. (动物有某种形式的内在生命，这一点对许多与它们一起生活或工作的人来说肯定是不言而喻的，就像我猜大多数照顾新生儿的人不会把这些婴儿视为毫无意义的自动机器一样。)”可知，提到新生儿护理者的目的是为了解释为什么动物护理者会认为动物有某种形式的内在生命。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。由文章最后一段中“But, as the biologist Marc Bekoff wrote, if we humans have something, then other animals are likely to have it too. I personally feel that attempts to divorce emotion, feeling and experience from how we see animals can be as unscientific. (但是，正如生物学家Marc Bekoff所写的那样，如果我们人类有某种东西，那么其他动物很可能也有。我个人认为，试图将情感、感觉和经验与我们看待动物的方式分离开来是不科学的。)”可知，作者认为Marc Bekoff关于动物情感的假设是科学的，并且作者支持这种假设。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是由文章第三段“Findings of experiments inspired a group of scientists in April to write The New York Declaration Animal Consciousness, which now has over 300 supporters. It states that there is “strong scientific support for conscious experience” in mammals and birds and “at least a realistic possibility of conscious experience” in fish and other species. (实验的发现启发了一组科学家在4月份撰写了《The New York Declaration Animal Consciousness》，现在有300多名支持者。它指出，在哺乳动物和鸟类中有“强有力的科学支持意识体验”，在鱼类和其他物种中“至少有现实的意识体验可能性”。)”可知，文章主要介绍了科学家在动物身上发现了意识体验，包括哺乳动物、鸟类以及鱼类和其他物种。因此，D选项“Conscious Experience Found in Certain Animal Species (在某些动物物种中发现意识体验)”符合题意。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 。 Rejection creates an emotional roller coaster.

(运用了现在分词作状语) 第二节 (满分 25 分) 47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 My love for dance began when I was very young and I would dream to be a star dancer from time to time. With the drama festival approaching, the school’s drama club had released a notice for the dancer audition (试镜) for The Twelve Dancing Princesses. And of course I was the first one to sign up. As I left the stage after my audition at school, I could feel it. The power. The future. I knew that someday when dancers’ magazines wrote about me, they would say this moment was when my rise to a star began. My ballet slippers hurt my feet, but I figured that was helpful. In The Twelve Dancing Princesses, the princesses danced all night so they probably had foot pain, too. My performance was more genuine because of my pain. I needed to show my devotion even when I wasn’t on stage, so I approached Mr. Ellison, the drama club advisor. He told me that casting (角色分配) will be posted tomorrow.“ Thank you, sir,” I said, using the almost British pronunciation of Hollywood stars in the 1940s. I was so sure that Mr. Ellison would cast me as a princess. The next morning, I went to read the cast list. The twelve princesses were first, by number. I scanned from One to Twelve, but none by me. At the bottom of the casting list, my name finally appeared. My role was a really small one, an old woman who helped a soldier, not one of the princesses! I was desperately disappointed. Mr. Ellison must have made a mistake! No one else in the school had my skills or preparation!. I found him in his classroom, but he insisted there was no mistake and emphasized that every role in a play was important. Unable to accept the fact, I burst into tears. Mr. Ellison managed to calm me down and encouraged me to have a try in the rehearsal (排练). 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。 The next day, I dragged myself to the rehearsal. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, the great day arrived and “the old woman” couldn’t wait to get on stage. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】The next day, I dragged myself to the rehearsal, still feeling disheartened. As we began, I watched the princesses dance gracefully, a twinge of jealousy stirring within me. But then, as I started to act out my role, something shifted. Mr. Ellison’s words echoed in my mind, “Every role is important.” Gradually, I immersed myself in the character of the old woman. My lines flowed naturally, and I found a newfound respect for my role. To my surprise, my performance drew applause from my peers. This small role, I realized, could be a powerful one. Finally, the great day arrived, and “the old woman” couldn’t wait to get on stage. As the curtains opened, a rush of excitement filled me. I delivered my lines with conviction, feeling more alive on stage than I had ever been. The audience laughed at my humorous lines, and I felt a sense of accomplishment. When the final curtain fell, the applause was deafening. Mr. Ellison’s words had been right — every role was important. I had found my place in the spotlight, not as a princess, but as an old woman who helped a soldier. And it was enough. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了热爱舞蹈的女孩报名参加学校戏剧俱乐部的《十二个跳舞的公主》试镜，期望成为明星舞者。试镜后她自信将被选为公主，却最终被分配扮演帮助士兵的老妇人。女孩深感失望，顾问老师安慰并鼓励她尝试排练。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第二天，我拖着自己来到排练现场。”可知，第一段可描写女孩虽然失望但仍然参加排练，以及在排练过程中的心态转变和发现自身角色的价值。 ②由第二段首句内容“最后，那个伟大的日子到来了，‘老妇人’迫不及待地想要登上舞台。”可知，第二段可描写女孩在正式演出时的表现和心路历程，以及演出结束后的感受和收获。 2. 续写线索：女孩失望参加排练——逐渐投入角色——发现角色价值——正式演出表现出色——获得认可和成就感 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①改变：shift/change ②投入：immerse/engage in ③发现：find/discover 情绪类 ①失望的：disheartened/disappointed ②嫉妒的：jealous/envious ③令我惊讶的是：to my surprise/to my amazement 【点睛】[高分句型1] As we began, I watched the princesses dance gracefully, a twinge of jealousy stirring within me.
