B I was attacked by a tiger shark in late October 1997. It was near my home on the island of Kauai—a typical fall morning with friends. The waves were really good, so nothing was stopping us. That is until a large shark came right up under me and sank his teeth into my lower leg. There had been no splashing. no noise, and I felt no pain, only great pressure on my lower body. Then I followed my instinct: I punched the shark in the face, again and again which happens to be what the expert advice, until the shark released me. As I swam back into shore, I felt my lower right leg spasming(痉挛). When I looked down, I realized it was gone. The shark had bit my lower leg off. My friends rushed to my aid, and rushed me to hospital. It was another day before the “fog” lifted, at which point I opened my eyes and realized I was in the hospital—a below-the-knee amputee(截肢). For the next few bedridden weeks, I spent time with my family, and considered the future. As soon as I was given the OK by my doctors, I did what many of us might consider unthinkable: I started riding the waves again. In fact, my first time back was near the site of his attack. I was unshaken and curious—Was it because of the tides? The phase of the moon? I also recalled that the morning of the attack the water had a fishy smell. Was that what attracted the shark? I was determined to research sharks, and I did learn something that would change my life: Humans are far more dangerous to sharks than the other way around, I tell Reader’s Digest. “I watched a documentary called Sharkwater, and I learned about the demand for shark fin soup and the fact that 70 million sharks a year are killed for their fins alone.” My unique situation as a shark survivor empowered me to give sharks a voice. I began working with the Hawaii state legislature to help pass a ban on shark-derived products. I partnered with other like-minded shark attack survivors and marine biologists and we headed to Washington to urge senators to create a nationwide bill protecting sharks. 4. What is mainly talked about in the first two paragraphs? A. The missing leg. B. The shark attack. C. The timely rescue. D. The expert’s advice. 5. Why did the author ride the waves again? A.

C Life continually requires that we write down a few words of thanks: for holidays, meals, presents or people’s place in our hearts. However, too often, our messages end up flat or somewhat unconvincing. To make our messages more effective, we might take a lesson from the history of art. To some extent, what distinguishes great from common art is the level of detail with which the world has been studied. A talented artist is, first and foremost, someone who takes us into the specifics of the reasons why an experience or a place felt valuable. They don’t merely tell us that spring is ‘nice’, they zero in on the particular contributing factors to this niceness: leaves that have the softness of a newborn’s hands, the contrast between a warm sun and a sharp breeze, the soft cry of baby blackbirds.... Some of the reason why great artists are rare is that our minds are not well set up to understand why we feel as we do. But we can be confident if our minds have been affected the reasons why they’ve been so will be somewhere, waiting to be uncovered. We stand to realise that it wasn’t so much that the food was ‘delicious’; but that the potatoes in particular had a charming rosemary and garlic flavour. A friend wasn’t just ‘nice’; they brought in a hugely sensitive and generous tone to bear in asking us what it had been like for us when we suffered. The details will be there, waiting for us to catch them. We don’t have to be great artists to send effective thank-you notes. We just need to locate and hold on tightly to two or three highly detailed reasons for our gratitude. 8. What can we infer from paragraph 1? A. We seldom express gratitude by writing. B. We usually find messages of thanks touching. C. We should take a course for message writing. D. We may draw inspiration for thank-yous from arts. 9. What does the underlined phrase “zero in on” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Leave out. B. Clear up. C. Focus on. D. Hold back. 10. How is paragraph 3 developed? A. By classification. B. By example. C. By definition. D. By process. 11. Which would the author recommend to express gratitude? A. I am blessed to have such a wonderful week. B. Your caring and warm smile lights up my day. C. Thank you so much for your great present. D. This is the most delicious dinner I’ve ever had. D Search engines have changed the way we use the Internet, putting vast sources of information just a few clicks away. But Harvard professor of psychology Line Daniel Wegner’s recent research proves that websites and the Internet are changing much more than technology itself. They are changing the way our memories function. Wegner’s latest study shows that when people have access to search engines, they remember fewer facts and less information because they know they can rely on “search” as a readily available shortcut. Wegner believes the new findings show that the Internet has become part of a transactive memory source, a method by which our brains divide information, which means you don’t have to remember everything in the world yourself. You just have to remember who knows it. Now computers and technology are becoming virtual extensions of our memory. Wegner conducted several experiments to demonstrate the phenomenon, using various forms of memory recall to test reliance on computers. In one experiment, participants demonstrated that they were more likely to think of computer terms like “Yahoo” or “Google” after being asked a set of difficult trivia questions. In another experiment, participants typed some statements into a computer and they were told the statements would be saved in specific folders. Next, they were asked to recall the statements. Finally, they were given cues to the wording and asked to name the folders where the statements were stored. The participants proved better able to recall the folder locations than the statements themselves. Wegner admits that questions remain about whether dependence on computers will affect memories negatively: “Nobody knows now what the effects of these tools are on logical thinking.” Students who have trouble remembering distinct facts, for example, may struggle to employ those facts in critical thinking. But he believes that the situation overall is beneficial, comparing dependence on computers to dependence on a mechanical hand or other prosthetic device. And even though we may not be using our memories to recall distinct facts, we are still using them to consider where the facts are located and how to access them. “We still have to remember things,” Wegner explains. “We’re just remembering a different range of things.” He believes his study will lead to further research into understanding computer dependence, and looks forward to tracing the extent of human interdependence with the computer world — pinpointing the “movable dividing line between us and our computers in cyber networks.” 12. From the experiment, when asked to provide facts that are not familiar to them, people tend to ________. A. think of specific information sources B. type into computer and remember them C. recall them from their deep memories D. link the unfamiliar facts to their experiences 13. Which one can be an example of the transactive memory? A. An actor organizes today’s schedule with his agent. B. A student asks his teacher for today’s homework. C. A husband relies on his wife to remember a relative’s birthday D. A boss asks the staff about the performance of the previous month. 14. Which of the following can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Computer dependence affects our thinking capacities in other distinct fields. B. Reliance on computers does not necessarily reduce human memory. C. Computers have helped people to understand the memory system better. D. Researches should be done to reveal the side effect of computer dependence. 15. Which of the following can serve as the best title? A. Wegner’s Research Has Pinpointed The Dividing Line B. Technological Networks Reshaping Our Brain Functions C. Human’s Memory Capability Becoming Inevitably Weaker D. Heavy Reliance On Computer For Storing More Information 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 people first come across the Law of Attraction (吸引力法则), their hearts and minds often immediately think of one specific thing that they’d love to achieve in their lives.

He carried a secret burden: a stutter (口吃) that often brought about laughter from his classmates. This made him very upset. Shy and reserved. Jack chose to fade into the background rather than draw attention to himself. He felt like an outsider, never quite fitting in. Jack was eager to exchange ideas with his classmates, but afraid of getting into trouble. Jack's science teacher, Katherine, a warm and caring woman often wearing a smile, noticed Jack's stutter and shyness. She observed how Jack struggled to express himself in class and how he would shy away when called upon to speak. Determined to lend a hand, Katherine took Jack under her wing, encouraging him to embrace bravery and believe in his own abilities. Subsequently, Katherine adopted a set of systematic methods to help him. She was glad to find the potential in him, the intelligence and creativity that lay hidden beneath his stutter. Whenever possible, Katherine was always ready to praise his efforts, always declaring, "You are so great!” Whenever Jack stumbled over his words, Katherine always smiled at him encouragingly, providing him with the strength to continue. Day by day, Jack found himself speaking with greater confidence and fluency. One day, Katherine announced that each student should give a presentation of a science project in front of the class. Jack's heart sank, the familiar fear and anxiety wrapping around him. How could he possibly stand before his classmates to give his ideas clearly, knowing that they would laugh at him? As the presentation drew near, Jack's anxiety mounted. Then came the big day. He watched his classmates take turns to walk up to the front. They gave their presentation with confidence and backed to their seats with satisfaction. However, while Jack was waiting for his turn, his heart beat so violently that he felt as if he were sitting on pins and needles. 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。 Paragraph 1: It was finally his turn. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: When Jack finished his presentation, the room erupted into applause. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 景德镇一中2024～2025学年第一学期期中考试卷 高一（19）、（20）班英语 第二部分 阅读 (共两节，满分50分) 第一节 (共15小题：每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Instead of paying to ship the items you don’t need to your new home, why not donate them?

B 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇议论文。作者认为在表达感谢时应该找到并紧紧抓住两三个非常详细的理由。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句“To make our messages more effective, we might take a lesson from the history of art.(为了使我们的信息更有效，我们可以从艺术史上吸取教训)”可知，我们可以从艺术中得到写感谢信的灵感。故选D。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段最后一句中的“leaves that have the softness of a newborn’s hands, the contrast between a warm sun and a sharp breeze, the soft cry of baby blackbirds....(树叶有新生儿的手的柔软，温暖的太阳和刺骨的微风的对比，小黑鸟轻柔的叫声……)”可知，“the particular contributing factors to this niceness(造成这种美好的特殊因素)”就是指树叶有新生儿的手的柔软，温暖的太阳和刺骨的微风的对比，小黑鸟轻柔的叫声等等，再根据最后一句中的“They don’t merely tell us that spring is ‘nice’(他们不仅仅告诉我们春天很好)”可知，此处是指他们不仅仅只说春天很好，还专注在描写细节上，告诉我们因为什么春天很好。所以“zero in on”意为“专注于”。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段第二句“But we can be confident if our minds have been affected, the reasons why they’ve been so will be somewhere, waiting to be uncovered.(但我们可以相信，如果我们的思想受到了影响，那么受到影响的原因将在某个地方，等待被发现)”和第三段最后一句“The details will be there, waiting for us to catch them.(细节会在那里，等着我们抓住它们)”可知，第二句和最后一句前后呼应，第三句和第四句“We stand to realise that it wasn’t so much that the food was ‘delicious’; but that the potatoes in particular had a charming rosemary and garlic flavour. A friend wasn’t just ‘nice’; they brought in a hugely sensitive and generous tone to bear in asking us what it had been like for us when we suffered.(我们会意识到，食物并不是那么美味；但土豆特别有迷迭香和大蒜的香味。朋友不仅仅是“好”的；当我们遭受苦难时，他们带着一种非常敏感和慷慨的语气问我们怎么样)”是在对此举例。由此可知，第三段是通过举例来论证观点。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句“We just need to locate and hold on tightly to two or three highly detailed reasons for our gratitude.(我们只需要找到并紧紧抓住两三个非常详细的理由来表达我们的感激之情)”可知，作者认为在表达感谢时应该找到并紧紧抓住两三个非常详细的理由，所以选项B. Your caring and warm smile lights up my day.(你的关怀和温暖的微笑照亮了我的一天)属于这种详细的理由，作者会推荐选项B。故选B。 D Search engines have changed the way we use the Internet, putting vast sources of information just a few clicks away. But Harvard professor of psychology Line Daniel Wegner’s recent research proves that websites and the Internet are changing much more than technology itself. They are changing the way our memories function. Wegner’s latest study shows that when people have access to search engines, they remember fewer facts and less information because they know they can rely on “search” as a readily available shortcut. Wegner believes the new findings show that the Internet has become part of a transactive memory source, a method by which our brains divide information, which means you don’t have to remember everything in the world yourself. You just have to remember who knows it. Now computers and technology are becoming virtual extensions of our memory. Wegner conducted several experiments to demonstrate the phenomenon, using various forms of memory recall to test reliance on computers. In one experiment, participants demonstrated that they were more likely to think of computer terms like “Yahoo” or “Google” after being asked a set of difficult trivia questions. In another experiment, participants typed some statements into a computer and they were told the statements would be saved in specific folders. Next, they were asked to recall the statements. Finally, they were given cues to the wording and asked to name the folders where the statements were stored. The participants proved better able to recall the folder locations than the statements themselves. Wegner admits that questions remain about whether dependence on computers will affect memories negatively: “Nobody knows now what the effects of these tools are on logical thinking.” Students who have trouble remembering distinct facts, for example, may struggle to employ those facts in critical thinking. But he believes that the situation overall is beneficial, comparing dependence on computers to dependence on a mechanical hand or other prosthetic device. And even though we may not be using our memories to recall distinct facts, we are still using them to consider where the facts are located and how to access them. “We still have to remember things,” Wegner explains. “We’re just remembering a different range of things.” He believes his study will lead to further research into understanding computer dependence, and looks forward to tracing the extent of human interdependence with the computer world — pinpointing the “movable dividing line between us and our computers in cyber networks.” 12. From the experiment when asked to provide facts that are not familiar to them, people tend to ________. A. think of specific information sources B. type into computer and remember them C. recall them from their deep memories D. link the unfamiliar facts to their experiences 13. Which one can be an example of the transactive memory? A. An actor organizes today’s schedule with his agent. B. A student asks his teacher for today’s homework. C. A husband relies on his wife to remember a relative’s birthday D. A boss asks the staff about the performance of the previous month. 14. Which of the following can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Computer dependence affects our thinking capacities in other distinct fields. B. Reliance on computers does not necessarily reduce human memory. C. Computers have helped people to understand the memory system better. D. Researches should be done to reveal the side effect of computer dependence. 15. Which of the following can serve as the best title? A. Wegner’s Research Has Pinpointed The Dividing Line B. Technological Networks Reshaping Our Brain Functions C. Human’s Memory Capability Becoming Inevitably Weaker D. Heavy Reliance On Computer For Storing More Information 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了计算机和技术正在重塑我们大脑的功能，并说明了研究开展的过程及意义。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“In one experiment, participants demonstrated that they were more likely to think of computer terms like “Yahoo” or “Google” after being asked a set of difficult trivia questions. In another experiment, participants typed some statements into a computer and they were told the statements would be saved in specific folders. Next, they were asked to recall the statements. Finally, they were given cues to the wording and asked to name the folders where the statements were stored. The participants proved better able to recall the folder locations than the statements themselves.(在一项实验中，参与者在被问及一系列复杂的琐事问题后，他们更有可能想到“雅虎”或“谷歌”等计算机术语。在另一项实验中，参与者在电脑中输入一些语句，并被告知这些语句将被保存在特定的文件夹中。接下来，他们被要求回忆这些陈述。最后，研究人员给他们提示，并要求他们说出存放这些语句的文件夹名称。事实证明，参与者能够更好地回忆文件夹位置，而不是语句本身)”可知，从实验中我们知道，当被要求提供他们不熟悉的事实时，人们倾向于想到特定的信息源。故选A。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Wegner believes the new findings show that the Internet has become part of a transactive memory source, a method by which our brains divide information, which means you don’t have to remember everything in the world yourself. You just have to remember who knows it.(韦格纳认为，新的发现表明，互联网已经成为交互记忆来源的一部分，这是我们的大脑划分信息的一种方法，这意味着你不必自己记住世界上的所有事情。你只要记住谁知道就行了)”可推知，C选项“丈夫依靠妻子记住亲戚的生日”是交互记忆的例子。故选C。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中““We still have to remember things,” Wegner explains. “We’re just remembering a different range of things.” He believes his study will lead to further research into understanding computer dependence, and looks forward to tracing the extent of human interdependence with the computer world — pinpointing the “movable dividing line between us and our computers in cyber networks.(韦格纳解释道：“我们仍然需要记住一些事情。我们只是记住了不同范围的事情。”他相信他的研究将导致对计算机依赖性的进一步研究，并期待追踪人类与计算机世界的相互依赖程度——确定“在网络中我们与计算机之间的可移动分界线”)”可推知，对计算机的依赖并不一定会减少人类的记忆。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Search engines have changed the way we use the Internet, putting vast sources of information just a few clicks away. But Harvard professor of psychology Line Daniel Wegner’s recent research proves that websites and the Internet are changing much more than technology itself. They are changing the way our memories function. (搜索引擎已经改变了我们使用互联网的方式，只需点击几下就能获得大量的信息。但哈佛大学心理学教授莱恩·丹尼尔·韦格纳最近的研究证明，网站和互联网正在发生的变化远不止技术本身。它们正在改变我们记忆的运作功能)”结合文章主要说明了计算机和技术正在重塑我们大脑的功能，并说明了研究开展的过程及意义，故B选项“技术网络重塑我们的大脑功能”符合文章大意，适合做标题，故选B。 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When people first come across the Law of Attraction (吸引力法则), their hearts and minds often immediately think of one specific thing that they’d love to achieve in their lives. However, the next thought is often “But I can’t do that”. You may come up with all kinds of excuses. ____16____Here are the reasons why you should believe you can use the Law of Attraction to obtain whatever you want. Small steps create big changes. One of the most common reasons for abandoning dreams is that they simply seem too huge to realize. Usually it’s manageable to think of following your dream as taking a series of significant but small steps. ____17____ Then look at each of them. Not so unrealistic now, is it? ____18____ When people are interviewed on their deathbeds or write about their lives in autobiographies (自传), it is often observed that major regrets tend to relate to things that were not done. In older age, it’s likely that you will be uncomfortable with the idea that you didn’t even try to do the thing that you loved or attempt to obtain what you truly wanted.____19____But you don’t ever need to feel this way! Make today the first day of your new journey towards avoiding regret. Steps towards your dream are never backwards steps. Another common worry is that if you follow your dreams, you’ll be “taking steps back”.____20____ However, what looks like backward steps in your old life can more productively and accurately be seen as forwarding steps in the brand new life you’re creating. A. You can avoid regret. B. It makes sense to move forward confidently. C. Luckily, the truth is that it’s never too late to follow your dream. D. It often comes up when people are at the top of careers they hate. E It is painful to feel like you haven’t ever found your true purpose. F. For example, challenge yourself to write down the path to success in ten stages. G. You have enough life experience and knowledge to make changes to pursue your dream. 【答案】16. C 17. F 18. A 19. E 20.

(通常情况下，你可以把追求梦想看成是一系列重要而又小的步骤。)”说明可以把追求梦想看成重要而又小的步骤。F项“For example, challenge yourself to write down the path to success in ten stages. (例如，挑战自己，把通往成功的道路分为十个阶段。)”为具体举例解释这一方法，和上文内容意思一致，为上文内容的语意递进。故选F项。 【18题详解】 该空为段首，总结该段内容。根据下文“When people are interviewed on their deathbeds or write about their lives in autobiographies (自传), it is often observed that major regrets tend to relate to things that were not done. In older age, it’s likely that you will be uncomfortable with the idea that you didn’t even try to do the thing that you loved or attempt to obtain what you truly wanted. (当人们在弥留之际接受采访，或在自传中讲述他们的生活时，我们常常发现，主要的遗憾往往与没有做过的事情有关。在年老的时候，你很可能会因为你甚至没有尝试做你喜欢的事情或试图获得你真正想要的东西而感到不舒服。)”可知，遗憾往往与没有做过的事情有关。A项“You can avoid regret. (你可以避免后悔。)”总结下文内容，引出下文中讲到的人们往往会因为什么而后悔。故选A项。 【19题详解】 上文“In older age, it’s likely that you will be uncomfortable with the idea that you didn’t even try to do the thing that you loved or attempt to obtain what you truly wanted.

(但是你不需要有这种感觉！)”说明空处提到了某种感觉。E项“It is painful to feel like you haven’t ever found your true purpose. (感觉自己还没有找到自己真正的目标是很痛苦的。)”为对上文内容的语意递进，同时引起下文，下文中提到的“feel this way (这种感觉)”指的就是该句中的内容。故选E项。 【20题详解】 上文“Another common worry is that if you follow your dreams, you’ll be “taking steps back”. (另一个常见的担忧是，如果你追随梦想，你会“倒退”。)”提到追随梦想，你会有“倒退”的这种担忧。下文“However, what looks like backward steps in your old life can more productively and accurately be seen as forwarding steps in the brand new life you’re creating. (然而，在你的旧生活中，那些看起来像是倒退的步骤，可以更有效、更准确地被视为你正在创造的全新生活中的前进步骤。)”为转折，说明这些担忧可能是创造的全新生活中的前进步骤。D项“It often comes up when people are at the top of careers they hate. (当人们处于自己讨厌的职业巅峰时，这种情况就会出现。)”起到承上启下作用，说明上文提到的情况。故选D项。 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。 In a small town lived a wealthy businessman.

He carried a secret burden: a stutter (口吃) that often brought about laughter from his classmates. This made him very upset. Shy and reserved. Jack chose to fade into the background rather than draw attention to himself. He felt like an outsider, never quite fitting in. Jack was eager to exchange ideas with his classmates, but afraid of getting into trouble. Jack's science teacher, Katherine, a warm and caring woman often wearing a smile, noticed Jack's stutter and shyness. She observed how Jack struggled to express himself in class and how he would shy away when called upon to speak. Determined to lend a hand, Katherine took Jack under her wing, encouraging him to embrace bravery and believe in his own abilities. Subsequently, Katherine adopted a set of systematic methods to help him. She was glad to find the potential in him, the intelligence and creativity that lay hidden beneath his stutter. Whenever possible, Katherine was always ready to praise his efforts, always declaring, "You are so great!” Whenever Jack stumbled over his words, Katherine always smiled at him encouragingly, providing him with the strength to continue. Day by day, Jack found himself speaking with greater confidence and fluency. One day, Katherine announced that each student should give a presentation of a science project in front of the class. Jack's heart sank, the familiar fear and anxiety wrapping around him. How could he possibly stand before his classmates to give his ideas clearly, knowing that they would laugh at him?

Jack stood up slowly and edged towards the front, his hands trembling. His classmates looked on, ready to see what was in store for Jack. He stood there tongue-tied with his face turning pale. When he looked around the classroom, Katherine was just smiling at him encouragingly. So Jack took a deep breath and concentrated on his presentation. Words flowed from his lips, despite some pauses and repetitions. He even added gestures to better express himself. It seemed that confidence had found him. When Jack finished his presentation, the room erupted into applause. The applause washed over Jack, and with it came a wave of confidence. His grateful eyes met Katherine's, her smile now a symbol of his journey to self-assurance. No longer defined by his stutter, Jack felt a sense of belonging.

As the room quieted, Jack returned to his seat, his heart lighter, knowing that he had made a lasting impression on his classmates and himself. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Jack和他的科学老师Katherine之间的互动，以及Jack如何逐渐克服口吃、提升自信并赢得同学们掌声的过程。 详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“终于轮到他了。”以及第二段首句内容“Jack做完报告后，全场爆发出热烈的掌声。”可知，第一段可描写Jack克服内心的恐惧，完成了自己的科学报告。 ②由第二段首句内容“Jack做完报告后，全场爆发出热烈的掌声。”可知，第二段可描写Jack非常感激老师的鼓励，也克服了对口吃的恐惧。 2.续写线索：Jack是一名新生，他内心藏着一个秘密，那就是他口吃——为了不被同学们嘲笑，他将自己隐没起来——他的老师Katherine注意到了Jack，于是她经常帮助Jack鼓励Jack——随着时间的推移，Jack发现自己说话越来越有信心——一天，Katherine说所有学生都要在全体同学面前做一个科学项目的报告——Jack非常紧张，如坐针毡——终于轮到Jack，他鼓起勇气，开始了自己的科学汇报，当他看到自己的老师时，他信心倍增——Jack成功地完成了回报，得到了所有同学的称赞 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①专注于：concentrate on/focus on ②克服：overcome/get over ③返回：return/go back to 情绪类 ①鼓励地：encouragingly/ in an encouraging manner ②感激的：grateful/thankful 【点睛】【高分句型1】His classmates looked on, ready to see what was in store for Jack.（运用了what引导的宾语从句） 【高分句型2】When he looked around the classroom, Katherine was just smiling at him encouragingly.（运用了when引导的状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
