Greenfield Beach, Australia It’s a few hours’ drive from Sydney, but it doesn’t get nearly as much attention as it should. You’ll need sunglasses when visiting Greenfield Beach because it’s one of the most amazing white sand beaches in the world and now it’s become a favorite for those addicted to taking pictures. As you walk through the forest, you’ll suddenly see one of the world’s most beautiful beaches right before your eyes. Sousse d’ Argent, Seychelles On a quiet bay (海湾) in one of the amazing 115 islands of the Seychelles, you’ll find a beautiful pink sand beach where the ocean meets the sky. Surrounded by huge rocks, this beach is sure to make you look more attractive in the photos. It’s often said to be the most beautiful beach in the world. Glass Beach, United States If you’ve ever heard the term “waste beach”, you’re probably thinking “What on earth are you talking about?” After all, when you hear the word “waste”, it sounds like you’re talking about a low area filled with waste, and it’s often dirty. But that’s not the case here. Those who like to shoot (拍摄) always come here. Playa del Amor, Mexico The beach, known as Playa del Amor or Hidden Beach, was formerly used as a training ground. It lies in a low area. Although it’s not recommended to swim here due to the rock y nature of the area and the strong waves, it’s a picturesque spot for people who love taking photos, and visitors may be able to observe whales if they’re lucky enough. 1. What do we know about Greenfield Beach? A. It’s close to Sydney. B. It’s covered by pink sand. C. It has no forest access. D. It’s not known to enough people. 2 At which beach are tourists advised not to swim? A. Greenfield Beach. B. Sousse d’ Argent. C. Playa del Amor. D. Glass Beach. 3. What do the listed beaches have in common? A. They’re places filled with waste. B. They’re great spots to take photos. C. They’re surrounded by many rocks. D. They’re famous for sea animals. B A 12-year-old boy from Florida won the 2024 Scripps National Spelling Bee (2024 SNSB) after correctly spelling nearly 29 words in 90 seconds. Seventh grader Bruhat Soma of St. Petersburg, Fla. was named the winner of the famous spelling competition. During the event, which took place in Oxon Hill, Md., Soma beat runner-up Faizan Zaki, a sixth grader from Dallas. The two faced off in a quick round tiebreaker match (决胜局) — before the pair could even compete against each other in a conventional round. Soma — one of just eight finalists in the bee, the fewest number of competitors in the final round in 14 years — finished the round with 29 words spelled correctly. Meanwhile, Zaki attempted 25 words and missed four of them. The Scripps organization announced that Soma’s winning word was abseil. It’s a word used in the sport of mountaineering. This was Soma’s third appearance in the bee. In 2022, he tied for 163rd place. Last year, he came 74th. Soma’s spelling coach was 16-year-old speller Sam Evans, who coached three of the top four finishers. The 12-year-old’s charities of choice to represent were the Rays Baseball Foundation and Rowdies Soccer Fund. The prizes for the first-place winner include a 850,000 cash prize from the organization, a $2,500 cash prize and reference library from Merriam-Webster and $400 worth of reference works from Encyclopadia Britannica. “I’ve been paying much attention to it this whole year,” Soma said in an interview, revealing that he often studied spelling for six hours a day on weekdays and over 10 hours a day on weekends. “After I lost in the quarter-finals last year, I knew what I had to do to win. And then when I won, it was a dream come true,” he added. “So I was so happy.” 4. What was unique about the 2024 SNSB final round? A. It had the fewest finalists in 14 years. B. Its winner was a sixth grader once again. C. It was held in Florida for the second time. D. Its runner-up and Som a had competed before. 5. What was the significance of Soma’s third appearance? A. He helped Sam Evans. B. He achieved his first win. C. He changed spelling bee rules. D. He became the youngest competitor. 6. What’s paragraph 3 mainly about? A. Soma’s education. B. Soma’s donations to charities. C. Soma’s prizes. D. Soma’s personal information. 7. What can we learn from Soma’s story? A Hard work pays off. B. Winning is all about luck. C. Many hands make light work. D. Education is the key to success. C A recent study reveals that a majority of Americans still believe that it was their parents who taught them how to do cleaning. For some, their families weren’t the only resource for learning how to clean. About one in three parents said they also learned to clean from their past or current jobs, from their significant other, or from their friends. “Cleaning can be surprisingly subjective. The ‘proper’ way to clean can vary greatly depending on your culture, how you were raised, and who you learned from,” says Tanu Grewal, who led the study. “At the end of the day, parents play a crucial role in shaping their children’s cleaning habits and attitudes, instilling good practices that last a lifetime.” The results also showed that three-quarters of parents plan on teaching their kids everything about cleaning that they were never taught, and four-fifths have already thought of the ways to teach kids cleaning habits. In fact, 7 in 10 believe how they learned to clean growing up could have had a positive impact on how they clean today. For more than six-tenths, cleaning is now considered an art form. Parents think that children of different ages should do different cleaning jobs. For example, for most cleaning jobs — folding laundry, washing dishes, floor cleaning, and taking out the rubbish — parents believe their kids can start participating by age 10. Instead of viewing it as a punishment, four-fifths of parents believe cleaning can be made into a family activity, tending to make cleaning something that brings everyone in the house together in a joyful way. “Cleaning is part of everyone’s tradition one way or another — whether you learn how to clean from your parents or want to start your own cleaning traditions with your children, it is something that is passed down through generations.” Grewal continues. 8. Which statement best describes the resources for people to learn how to clean? A. They have limited backgrounds. B. They come from various ways. C. They depend on people’s friends. D. They are good for people’s jobs. 9. What does the underlined word “instilling” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Teaching. B. Remembering. C. Comparing. D. Exploring. 10. Which is the percentage of parents considering how to teach kids to keep clean? A. 60%. B. 70%. C. 75%. D. 80%. 11. What does Grewal want to express about cleaning in the last paragraph? A. It’s a personal skill. B. It’s a source of happiness. C. It’s a family culture. D. It’s a punishment to kids. D Climate change is causing widespread global impacts, but now scientists are finding that it’s changing the very planet itself. Earth’s rotation (自转) is slowing down, making the length of a day slightly longer. As temperatures rise, massive amounts of ice are melting (融化) from Greenland and Antaretica. That meltwater flows into the oceans, making the middle of the planet become thicker. Then, its daily rotation takes a bit longer. The change is tiny, measured in milliseconds, which is one- thousandth of a second. Now, the ice at the poles is rapidly melting. Since 1993, global sea levels have risen by 4 inches on average and will likely rise by 2 feet or more by the end of the century, depending on how much humans control climate pollution. Scientist Surendra Adhikari and his workmates found that melting ice has slowed the planet’s rotation by 1.33 milliseconds per century since 2000. They believe that if climate pollution remains the same like today, that’ll increase to 2.62 milliseconds by the end of the century. While that amount of time doesn’t mean much to everyday life, it can pose problems to highly connected computer networks that society depends on. For example, computer network s control GPS and space navigation, as well as financial institutions and cellphone networks. The problem arises because timekeeping is controlled by atomic clocks now, not the rotation of the Earth. Adjusting (调整) their clocks can be a major technological headache. Tech companies have been pushing back against the adjustments, saying they can cause networks to crash. Melting ice has far more serious consequences for the planet than time. Millions of people face losing their homes as ice melts and sea levels keep rising. “If you live in a low-lying coastal area, then you’re not concerned about the milliseconds.” scientist Judah Levine says. “That’s the least of your worries. You have much more serious problems to deal with.” 12. What did Adhikari’s team find about Earth’s rotation? A. It’s based on global sea levels. B. It’ll cause climate change. C. It’ll speed up in the near future. D. It’s affected by climate pollution. 13. How do the computer network s face time change? A. They handle it easily. B. They struggle with it. C. They ignore its effects. D. They welcome it fully. 14. What does Levine advise those living on the coast to do? A. Consider their own survival. B. Say no to adding milliseconds. C. Fill low-lying areas with stones. D. Care about the time of ice melting. 15. What’s the best title for the text? A. Climate Change and Meltwater B. Earth’s Rotation in Trouble C. The Effects of Climate on Ocean D. The Impact of Melting Ice 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。 Teenagers around the world have a lot of free time.

Brad noticed Kelly’s constant worry about their living situation in the city flat and suggested moving to the countryside. “Kelly, I think moving to the countryside would be better for us and Jeremy. What do you think?” Brad asked. Kelly nodded without hesitation. When they moved, Jeremy was 2 years old and he was absolutely excited about the new home surrounded by woods. “This is the best place ever, Mommy!” he said, his eyes shining with excitement as he ran around the yard. One cold night, a knock on the front door woke them up. “What was that?” Kelly asked in fear. When Brad and Kelly opened the door, they discovered a wounded squirrel (松鼠) with an open wound on one of its legs. Kelly rushed to help. “Poor thing,” she said. Her heart ached as she saw the wound. The Shoemakers took the injured squirrel in, cleaned its wound, applied some medicine to it, and Jeremy brought a bedcover for warmth. “Let’s call it Lily,” Jeremy suggested. Eventually, Lily recovered and was released back into the wild. After Lily’s leaving, a sense of emptiness filled the house and soon, strange knocks on the front door which was usually unlocked began at night. The first time they heard the sounds, the Shoemakers rushed to the door. “I don’t see anything,” Brad said, puzzled. “This is so strange,” Kelly responded.

Seventh grader Bruhat Soma of St. Petersburg, Fla. was named the winner of the famous spelling competition. During the event, which took place in Oxon Hill, Md., Soma beat runner-up Faizan Zaki, a sixth grader from Dallas. The two faced off in a quick round tiebreaker match (决胜局) — before the pair could even compete against each other in a conventional round. Soma — one of just eight finalists in the bee, the fewest number of competitors in the final round in 14 years — finished the round with 29 words spelled correctly. Meanwhile, Zaki attempted 25 words and missed four of them. The Scripps organization announced that Soma’s winning word was abseil. It’s a word used in the sport of mountaineering. This was Soma’s third appearance in the bee. In 2022, he tied for 163rd place. Last year, he came 74th. Soma’s spelling coach was 16-year-old speller Sam Evans, who coached three of the top four finishers. The 12-year-old’s charities of choice to represent were the Rays Baseball Foundation and Rowdies Soccer Fund. The prizes for the first-place winner include a 850,000 cash prize from the organization, a $2,500 cash prize and reference library from Merriam-Webster and $400 worth of reference works from Encyclopadia Britannica. “I’ve been paying much attention to it this whole year,” Soma said in an interview, revealing that he often studied spelling for six hours a day on weekdays and over 10 hours a day on weekends. “After I lost in the quarter-finals last year, I knew what I had to do to win. And then when I won, it was a dream come true,” he added. “So I was so happy.” 4. What was unique about the 2024 SNSB final round? A. It had the fewest finalists in 14 years. B. Its winner was a sixth grader once again. C. It was held in Florida for the second time. D. Its runner-up and Som a had competed before. 5. What was the significance of Soma’s third appearance? A. He helped Sam Evans. B. He achieved his first win. C. He changed spelling bee rules. D. He became the youngest competitor. 6. What’s paragraph 3 mainly about? A. Soma’s education. B. Soma’s donations to charities. C. Soma’s prizes. D. Soma’s personal information. 7. What can we learn from Soma’s story? A. Hard work pays off. B. Winning is all about luck. C. Many hands make light work. D. Education is the key to success. 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。主要介绍的是一名来自佛罗里达州的12岁男孩赢得了2024年斯克里普斯全国拼写比赛。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Soma — one of just eight finalists in the bee, the fewest number of competitors in the final round in 14 years — finished the round with 29 words spelled correctly.(Soma是本次大赛仅有的8名决赛选手之一，也是14年来参加决赛人数最少的一次，他拼对了29个单词)”可知，这次比赛时14年来参加决赛人数最少的一次，由此可知，2024年SNSB最后一轮的独特之处在于这是14年来参加决赛人数最少的一次。故选A项。 5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The Scripps organization announced that Soma’s winning word was abseil. It’s a word used in the sport of mountaineering. This was Soma’s third appearance in the bee. In 2022, he tied for 163rd place. Last year, he came 74th.(斯克里普斯组织宣布，Soma的获奖词是abseil。这个词用于登山运动。这是Soma第三次在该比赛中露面。2022年，他并列第163名。去年，他排在第74位)”可知，Soma之前参加过两次比赛，这是他第三次参加比赛并且赢得冠军，由此可知，Soma第三次出现的意义是获得了第一次胜利。故选B项。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段中的“The 12-year-old’s charities of choice to represent were the Rays Baseball Foundation and Rowdies Soccer Fund. The prizes for the first-place winner include a 850,000 cash prize from the organization, a $2,500 cash prize and reference library from Merriam-Webster and $400 worth of reference works from Encyclopadia Britannica.(这位12岁的男孩选择代表的慈善机构是Rays Baseball Foundation和Rowdies Soccer Fund。第一名的奖金包括该组织85万美元的现金奖励、2500美元的现金奖励和韦氏词典的参考图书馆，以及价值400美元的《大英百科全书》参考书目)”可知，在这次比赛中赢得冠军后，他将会获得很多的现金奖励和韦氏词典的参考图书馆和价值400美元的《大英百科全书》参考书目，由此可知，第三段主要介绍的是Soma的奖品。故选C项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据尾段中的“‘I’ve been paying much attention to it this whole year,’ Soma said in an interview, revealing that he often studied spelling for six hours a day on weekdays and over 10 hours a day on weekends.(他在接受采访时说：“这一整年我都很关注拼写。”他还透露，自己平时每天学习6个小时拼写，周末则要学习10个小时以上)”可知，Soma为了赢得比赛，每天学习6个小时拼写，周末则要学习10个小时以上，结合下文的“‘After I lost in the quarter-finals last year, I knew what I had to do to win. And then when I won, it was a dream come true,’ he added. ‘So I was so happy.’(“在去年输掉1 / 4决赛后，我知道我必须做些什么才能赢。当我赢的时候，我的梦想成真了。”“所以我很高兴。”)”可知Soma经过自己的刻苦训练，最后在比赛中获胜，由此可知，从Soma的故事中我们可以学到的是：付出就有回报。故选A项。 C A recent study reveals that a majority of Americans still believe that it was their parents who taught them how to do cleaning. For some, their families weren’t the only resource for learning how to clean. About one in three parents said they also learned to clean from their past or current jobs, from their significant other, or from their friends. “Cleaning can be surprisingly subjective. The ‘proper’ way to clean can vary greatly depending on your culture, how you were raised, and who you learned from,” says Tanu Grewal, who led the study. “At the end of the day, parents play a crucial role in shaping their children’s cleaning habits and attitudes, instilling good practices that last a lifetime.” The results also showed that three-quarters of parents plan on teaching their kids everything about cleaning that they were never taught, and four-fifths have already thought of the ways to teach kids cleaning habits. In fact, 7 in 10 believe how they learned to clean growing up could have had a positive impact on how they clean today. For more than six-tenths, cleaning is now considered an art form. Parents think that children of different ages should do different cleaning jobs. For example, for most cleaning jobs — folding laundry, washing dishes, floor cleaning, and taking out the rubbish — parents believe their kids can start participating by age 10. Instead of viewing it as a punishment, four-fifths of parents believe cleaning can be made into a family activity, tending to make cleaning something that brings everyone in the house together in a joyful way. “Cleaning is part of everyone’s tradition one way or another — whether you learn how to clean from your parents or want to start your own cleaning traditions with your children, it is something that is passed down through generations.” Grewal continues. 8. Which statement best describes the resources for people to learn how to clean? A. They have limited backgrounds. B. They come from various ways. C. They depend on people’s friends. D. They are good for people’s jobs. 9. What does the underlined word “instilling” in paragraph 3 mean? A Teaching. B. Remembering. C. Comparing. D. Exploring. 10. Which is the percentage of parents considering how to teach kids to keep clean? A. 60%. B. 70%. C. 75%. D. 80%. 11. What does Grewal want to express about cleaning in the last paragraph? A. It’s a personal skill. B. It’s a source of happiness. C. It’s a family culture. D. It’s a punishment to kids. 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是一项研究表明，父母在塑造孩子的清洁习惯和态度方面起着至关重要的作用。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“For some, their families weren’t the only resource for learning how to clean. About one in three parents said they also learned to clean from their past or current jobs, from their significant other, or from their friends.(对一些人来说，家庭并不是他们学习如何清洁的唯一资源。大约三分之一的父母说，他们还从过去或现在的工作、重要的另一半或朋友那里学会了清洁)”可知，对一些人来说，家庭不是他们学习清洁的唯一资源，进而在下文中介绍的学会清洁的其它途径。由此可知，人们学习清洁的资源来自不同的途径。故选B项。 【9题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线单词前的“At the end of the day, parents play a crucial role in shaping their children’s cleaning habits and attitudes(归根结底，父母在塑造孩子的清洁习惯和态度方面起着至关重要的作用)”可知，父母在塑造孩子清洁习惯和态度方面起到重要的作用，结合划线单词后的“good practices that last a lifetime.(终身受益的好习惯)”可知，清洁是一种终身受益的好习惯，所以父母应该会给孩子在日常进行灌输。由此可知，划线单词的意思应与“灌输”意义相近。故选A项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The results also showed that three-quarters of parents plan on teaching their kids everything about cleaning that they were never taught, and four-fifths have already thought of the ways to teach kids cleaning habits.( 调查结果还显示，四分之三的父母计划教给孩子他们从未教过的关于清洁的一切，五分之四的父母已经想到了培养孩子清洁习惯的方法)”可知，有五分之四的父母已经想到了培养孩子清洁习惯的方法。由此可知，80%的父母考虑如何教育孩子保持清洁。故选D项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据尾段““Cleaning is part of everyone’s tradition one way or another — whether you learn how to clean from your parents or want to start your own cleaning traditions with your children, it is something that is passed down through generations.” Grewal continues.(“清洁是每个人的传统的一部分，无论你是从父母那里学习如何清洁，还是想和孩子一起开始自己的清洁传统，这都是代代相传的。”Grewal继续说到)”可知，Grewal认为清洁是一种传统，是一种代代相传的文化。由此可知，在最后一段中关于清洁，格里瓦尔想表达的是清洁是一种家庭文化。故选C项。 D Climate change is causing widespread global impacts, but now scientists are finding that it’s changing the very planet itself. Earth’s rotation (自转) is slowing down, making the length of a day slightly longer. As temperatures rise, massive amounts of ice are melting (融化) from Greenland and Antaretica. That meltwater flows into the oceans, making the middle of the planet become thicker. Then, its daily rotation takes a bit longer. The change is tiny, measured in milliseconds, which is one- thousandth of a second. Now, the ice at the poles is rapidly melting. Since 1993, global sea levels have risen by 4 inches on average and will likely rise by 2 feet or more by the end of the century, depending on how much humans control climate pollution. Scientist Surendra Adhikari and his workmates found that melting ice has slowed the planet’s rotation by 1.33 milliseconds per century since 2000. They believe that if climate pollution remains the same like today, that’ll increase to 2.62 milliseconds by the end of the century. While that amount of time doesn’t mean much to everyday life, it can pose problems to highly connected computer networks that society depends on. For example, computer network s control GPS and space navigation, as well as financial institutions and cellphone networks. The problem arises because timekeeping is controlled by atomic clocks now, not the rotation of the Earth. Adjusting (调整) their clocks can be a major technological headache. Tech companies have been pushing back against the adjustments, saying they can cause networks to crash. Melting ice has far more serious consequences for the planet than time. Millions of people face losing their homes as ice melts and sea levels keep rising. “If you live in a low-lying coastal area, then you’re not concerned about the milliseconds.” scientist Judah Levine says. “That’s the least of your worries. You have much more serious problems to deal with.” 12. What did Adhikari’s team find about Earth’s rotation? A. It’s based on global sea levels. B. It’ll cause climate change. C. It’ll speed up in the near future. D. It’s affected by climate pollution. 13. How do the computer network s face time change? A. They handle it easily. B. They struggle with it. C. They ignore its effects. D. They welcome it fully. 14. What does Levine advise those living on the coast to do? A. Consider their own survival. B. Say no to adding milliseconds. C. Fill low-lying areas with stones. D. Care about the time of ice melting. 15. What’s the best title for the text? A. Climate Change and Meltwater B. Earth’s Rotation in Trouble C. The Effects of Climate on Ocean D. The Impact of Melting Ice 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. A 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了气候变化导致全球影响广泛，不仅影响地球本身。地球的自转正在减慢，一天的长度在略微延长。随着温度上升，格陵兰和南极的大量冰雪融化，融水流入海洋，使地球的中部变厚，日常自转变慢。尽管这种时间变化对日常生活意义不大，但对高度互联的计算机网络可能会带来问题。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Scientist Surendra Adhikari and his workmates found that melting ice has slowed the planet's rotation by 1.33 milliseconds per century since 2000. They believe that if climate pollution remains the same like today, that'll increase to 2.62 milliseconds by the end of the century.( 科学家Surendra Adhikari和他的同事发现，自2000年以来，融化的冰使地球的自转速度每世纪减慢1.33毫秒。他们认为，如果气候污染保持今天的水平，到本世纪末，这一数字将增加到2.62毫秒。)”可知，Adhikari的团队发现地球自转受气候污染的影响。故选D项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Adjusting(调整) their clocks can be a major technological headache. Tech companies have been pushing back against the adjustments, saying they can cause networks to crash.( 调整他们的生物钟可能是一个主要的技术难题。科技公司一直在反对这些调整，称它们可能导致网络崩溃。)”可知，计算机网络要与时间变化作斗争。故选B项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Millions of people face losing their homes as ice melts and sea levels keep rising. "If you live in a low- lying coastal area, then you're not concerned about the milliseconds. "scientist Judah Levine says. "That's the least of your worries. You have much more serious problems to deal with."( 随着冰融化和海平面不断上升，数百万人面临失去家园的危险。“如果你住在低洼的沿海地区，那么你就不用担心毫秒。科学家犹大·莱文说。“这是你最不需要担心的。你有更严重的问题要处理。”)”可推知，莱文建议那些住在海边的人考虑自己的生存。故选A项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第二段中“As temperatures rise, massive amounts of ice are melting(融化) from Greenland and Antaretica. That meltwater flows into the oceans, making the middle of the planet become thicker. Then, its daily rotation takes a bit longer. The change is tiny, measured in milliseconds, which is one- thousandth of a second. Now, the ice at the poles is rapidly melting. Since 1993, global sea levels have risen by 4 inches on average and will likely rise by 2 feet or more by the end of the century, depending on how much humans control climate pollution.( 随着气温上升，格陵兰岛和南极洲的大量冰正在融化（融化）。融化的水流入海洋，使地球中部变得更厚。然后，它的每日旋转需要更长的时间。这种变化非常微小，以毫秒为单位，也就是千分之一秒。现在，两极的冰正在迅速融化。自1993年以来，全球海平面平均上升了4英寸，到本世纪末可能会上升2英尺或更多，这取决于人类控制气候污染的程度。)”和最后一段中“Melting ice has far more serious consequences for the planet than time.( 冰融化对地球造成的后果远比时间严重。)”可知，文章主要讲的是气候变化导致全球影响广泛，不仅影响地球本身。地球的自转正在减慢，一天的长度在略微延长。随着温度上升，格陵兰和南极的大量冰雪融化，融水流入海洋，使地球的中部变厚，日常自转变慢。尽管这种时间变化对日常生活意义不大，但对高度互联的计算机网络可能会带来问题。故文章最好的标题是“冰融化的影响”。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。 Teenagers around the world have a lot of free time.

However, the birth of their son Jeremy brought significant changes. Brad noticed Kelly’s constant worry about their living situation in the city flat and suggested moving to the countryside. “Kelly, I think moving to the countryside would be better for us and Jeremy. What do you think?” Brad asked. Kelly nodded without hesitation. When they moved, Jeremy was 2 years old and he was absolutely excited about the new home surrounded by woods. “This is the best place ever, Mommy!” he said, his eyes shining with excitement as he ran around the yard. One cold night, a knock on the front door woke them up. “What was that?” Kelly asked in fear. When Brad and Kelly opened the door, they discovered a wounded squirrel (松鼠) with an open wound on one of its legs. Kelly rushed to help. “Poor thing,” she said. Her heart ached as she saw the wound. The Shoemakers took the injured squirrel in, cleaned its wound, applied some medicine to it, and Jeremy brought a bedcover for warmth. “Let’s call it Lily,” Jeremy suggested. Eventually, Lily recovered and was released back into the wild. After Lily’s leaving, a sense of emptiness filled the house and soon, strange knocks on the front door which was usually unlocked began at night. The first time they heard the sounds, the Shoemakers rushed to the door. “I don’t see anything,” Brad said, puzzled. “This is so strange,” Kelly responded. The knocks continued for a month, then a year. Upset by the situation, Brad installed (安装) cameras all over the backyard and the driveway. Kelly spent the entire weekend examining the cameras and at 2 am, she was surprised by what she saw. 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。 Kelly saw Lily walking 3 kids through the door to the basement (地下室). ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Shoemakers observed Lily and her kids from a distance. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Kelly saw Lily walking 3 kids through the door to the basement (地下室). Seeing this, Kelly quickly woke Brad and Jeremy, her voice shaky with disbelief. “Brad, Jeremy, come quick! It’s Lily and her babies!” Brad rubbed his sleepy eyes and rushed to the cameras, his jaw dropping at the sight. “This is incredible. I never expected this.” Jeremy said with excitement, “See, Mom and Dad? Our kindness to Lily has brought her back to us. Maybe she trusts us to keep her kids safe.” They finally figured out who had been making the sounds. Lily had spent the entire time housed in their basement! The Shoemakers observed Lily and her kids from a distance. They left nuts and fruits outside the door, showing their continued care and support. Lily, seeming to understand their intentions, would sometimes stop and look at the kind family gratefully. One sunny afternoon, Jeremy placed the old and soft bedcover which was used to keep Lily warm near the entrance of the basement and left some fresh water. “I hope they know we mean well,” he whispered. And in response, Lily appeared with her kids, carefully approaching the offerings. A new bond of trust was formed, one that would last for many years to come. 【解析】 【导语】本文以受伤的松鼠为线索展开，讲述了Brad Shoemaker一家带着孩子Jeremy搬到乡下生活，在一个寒冷的夜晚，救治了受伤的松鼠并取名Lily，在Lily痊愈后被放回到野外，不久后又响起了敲门声，持续了一个月，甚至一年的时间，他们一家想一探究竟，安装上了摄像头后，Kelly发现了不可思议的景象。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Kelly看到Lily带着三个孩子穿过地下室的门。”可知，第一段可描写见到该景象后Kelly及全家人的反应。 ②由第二段首句内容“Shoemaker夫妇远远地看着Lily和她的孩子们。”可知，第二段可描写Shoemaker一家人接下来又怎么做的，他们与松鼠之间如何相处的。 2.续写线索：发现Lily和她的孩子——知道了敲门声的原因——远远观察着Lily一家——照顾Lily一家——建立新的信任纽带 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①弄清楚：figure out/find out ②低语：whispered/speak in a low voice ③出现：appeared/show up/turn up 情绪类 ①感激：gratefully/thankfully ②激动：with excitement/excitedly 【点睛】[高分句型1] Brad rubbed his sleepy eyes and rushed to the cameras, his jaw dropping at the sight. （运用了独立主格结构作状语） [高分句型2] They left nuts and fruits outside the door, showing their continued care and support.（运用了现在分词短语作状语） [高分句型3] One sunny afternoon, Jeremy placed the old and soft bedcover which was used to keep Lily warm near the entrance of the basement and left some fresh water.（运用了which引导的限制性定语从句） 听力 1—5 ACBCA 6—10 BBACA 11—15 CCBBC 16—20 BCACA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
