And at thousands of miles an hour, even a tiny piece could cause significant damage. Dr. Moriba Jah has been working on sounding the alarm. Guided by traditional ecological knowledge, he’s exploring a new path for responsible space exploration. From a young age, he decided to find a way to serve people. Maybe he’d help find the cure for AIDS. He considered it at the time. The dream agreed with his love for biology, but instead, he was enlisted in the army for four years, where the night experience in nature introduced him to satellites and turned his attention toward space. Now, Jah is a professor at The University of Texas at Austin and a space environmentalist. As a space environmentalist and scientist, Jah is working on solutions to the junk in the skies——a problem growing more quickly than ever since the late 1990s, with the development in commercial space exploration launching rockets more often than ever. In 2022, he mapped the human-made objects in Earth’s orbit (轨道) and helped launch a satellite and space junk tracker application available to the public. About 170 million space pieces are in Earth’s orbit, around 35,000 of which are large enough to be tracked. “The best solution unfortunately is to transport it to the earth and have it burn up in the atmosphere,” Jah highlights, but it pollutes the atmosphere in the process. Despite working in the eye of a growing problem in the skies, Jah is optimistic about the way forward. “Mother Nature is very resilient (有弹性的). We can see evidence of that,” he says. 24. What was probably Jah’s original dream? A. To be a solider. B. To develop drugs. C. To explore space. D. To become a professor. 25. What is Jah’s achievement? A. Developing a rocket. B. Mapping the earth’s orbit. C. Helping launch a special app. D. Designing man-made satellites. 26. What is the best way to deal with the space junk? A. Leave it as it is. B. Take it back and burn it. C. Track it in the air. D. Destroy it in space. 27. What is the passage mainly talking about? A. The side effects of space exploration. B. An effective way to solve space pollution. C. The development of commercial space exploration. D. A man paving the way for responsible space exploration. C Crows are known to be very clever birds. Now a new study showed that they can count out loud and they may even have the same number recognizing skills as human babies. Researchers found that crows can produce a specific number of caws (乌鸦叫) in response to visual or auditory stimuli (视觉和听觉刺激), enabling them to count out loud between one and four. The discovery is the first time that animals have been shown to count by making a number of vocalizations (发声). “Producing a specific number of vocalizations with purpose requires a combination of number recognizing abilities and voice control,” the researchers wrote in the study. “Our results show that crows can flexibly produce a number of vocalizations on purpose.” Many studies have shown that animals, including honeybees, lions, frogs and ants, have a number sense. Yet none of these provide enough evidence that animals share humans’ ability to count out loud. In the new study, the researchers presented three crows with visual and auditory stimuli. The visual stimuli is numbers and the auditory stimuli is the sounds of different instruments. After the training, the birds learned that each stimuli represents a set number of caws between one and four. After cawing four times for a sound or symbol associated with four caws, for example, the birds were trained to touch the screen with their mouth displaying them to signal they had finished. If the crows gave the right number of caws, they were rewarded with a treat. Once they were trained, the counting crows gave right responses— producing the correct number of caws. Even when the crows gave wrong responses, they were often mistakes made between numbers that were close together. “This competency in crows also mirrors babies’ skills before they learn to understand number words,” the scientists wrote. 28. What makes crows’ producing a particular number of vocalizations possible? A. Their facial recognition skill. B. Their quick reaction to sounds. C. The combination of their different learning skills. D. The ability to recognize numbers and control their voice. 29. Why were lions and ants mentioned in the passage? A. To compare the animals’ similarities. B. To prove crows are the cleverest birds. C. To show some animals have a number sense. D. To express their unique vocalizations. 30. What is paragraph 6 mainly about? A. The result of the training. B. The cost of the training. C The difficulty of the training. D. The importance of the training. 31. What does the underlined word “competency” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Ability. B. Habit. C. Difference. D. Sound. D Orr, a sport ecologist at the University of Toronto, outlines how climate change is affecting sports in her new book, Warming Up: How Climate Change Is Changing Sport, providing a convincing case for action from athletes, sports leagues and fans alike. While Orr supports her argument with data and interviews with experts, it’s the personal stories that are most powerful. There’s the heartbreaking story of University of Maryland college football player Jordan McNair, who died of heat stroke (中暑) suffered at practice. The first 11 of the book’s 17 chapters mainly focus on how warming temperatures, rising seas, increasing wildfires and other effects of climate change are already impacting the industry and will worsen in the future. For instance, outdoor pond hockey is at risk of disappearing altogether as winters become warmer and ice becomes rarer. But against the backdrop of climate change’s horrible reality, Orr keeps hope alive in the last six chapters. The sports world can adapt to climate change to ensure that some sports survive. She spotlights the past and present activism of athletes who are fighting for sustainability (持续性). One heartening example is Innes FitzGerald, a teenage cross-country runner who refused to fly from Britain to Australia for the 2023 World Athletics Championships out of concern for air travel’s carbon emissions. Before FitzGerald, “no athlete had actually passed up championship opportunities because of concern about carbon emissions,” Orr notes. Like climate activism, it seems changes in sports will be led by the youth. Orr’s writing is authoritative and traditional, and while she sometimes uses academic terms, her language is largely accessible even to readers with no scientific background. The book is jam-packed with information and has something for sports lovers and ordinary fans alike. In the fight against climate change, Warming Up shows us that it’s time for the sports world to play ball. 32. What does Orr’s new book focus on? A. The problems facing the world. B. The effect of climate change on sports. C. The methods of keeping fit for athletes. D. The sports world’s attitude toward emission. 33. How does Orr prove her point in the book? A. She explains some confusing definitions. B. She tells of many experts’ personal stories. C. She uses some related figures and dialogues. D. She shows athletes’ efforts in protecting the environment. 34. What does Innes FitzGerald’s behavior show? A. Sports are in the bad need of changing. B. Flight is a main source of carbon emission. C. The young don’t take championships seriously. D. Young athletes are fighting against climate change. 35. Which words can best describe Orr’s new book? A. Popular and influential. B. Ordinary and cheap. C. Professional and scientific. D. Informative and understandable. 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Negative Body Language Signs and How to Avoid Them Negative body language can ruin your relationships with others. ___36___ What are negative body language signs you might be employing?

I asked the receptionist (接待员) why they were collecting shoes. The receptionist told me that one of their optometrists participated in an annual eye-care mission in Africa. For a few weeks every year, the mission serviced people who didn’t have access to eye care or glasses. During the optometrist’s previous trip, he observed that many of the children who lined up for eye care didn’t wear shoes. He planned to take the donated shoes and offer them to his patients on his next eye-care mission. The woman sitting next to me didn’t believe there were such poor people and said something unpleasant. Although it’s not my nature to conflict with a stranger, I felt it necessary for me to tell her that her remark was not acceptable to me. I told the woman there were many other countries in the world that had similar situation. She challenged me to provide a personal example of how I know about this. I described our first trip to Cuba years ago when our family spent Christmas in a city in eastern Cuba. The hotel was pleasant, although not the high level of luxury found in hotels in Canada or the USA. My husband is a tennis enthusiast and decided to take some tennis lessons, while I sat on the sidelines observing his performance. During his first lesson, we both noticed the instructor’s tennis shoes were in poor condition. My husband enjoyed his instructor’s company and, after each lesson, we would have a chat with the instructor about the social and economic challenges of everyday life in Cuba. One day, the instructor commented on how much he admired my husband’s tennis shoes. He talked about how expensive it was to buy good tennis objects in Cuba. During their conversation, my husband learned they had the same shoe size. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 When he finished his last lesson, my husband took off his tennis shoes. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After hearing my story, the woman sat in silence. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 江西省2024—2025学年上学期期中调研测试 高二 英语 注意事项： 1. 考查范围：选择性必修第一册Unit 1 ~ Unit 4。 2. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号等填写在答题卡指定位置上。 3. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 4. 考生必须保持答题卡的整洁。考试结束后，请将答题卡交回。 第一部分 听力 (共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上，录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节 (共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 例：How much is the shirt?

A 【解析】 【原文】 Italian artist Jacopo Della Ragione’s works on display in Beijing have attracted many visitors. Jacopo was born in Florence in 1976, the art capital of Italy. Jacopo showed a strong interest in art in his childhood. While studying at the University of Milan, Jacopo took a master’s course in graphic design and printing technology. Before coming to China, Jacopo knew almost nothing about this country. With a strong curiosity about China, Jacopo moved to Beijing in 2001. “I planned to spend two weeks knowing about China, but later I found the time was far from enough, and I’ve been here for more than 20 years until now,” Jacop o said. He created some paintings with traditional colors to show his love for traditional Chinese culture. The happiest time for Jacopo was after enjoying his artworks, some visitors who didn’t understand art began to show interest in it and realized art is part of their life. Having lived in China for more than two decades, Jacopo said he was amazed by the country’s rapid development. Now, he has put down roots in Beijing. “China and Italy have something in common — we both value family. I was born in Italy and live in China. China is now my home and I will continue to live and work here,” he said. 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和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A Six Flags Great America Six Flags Great America first opened in 1976 and has grown in size ever since.

They become junk that might crash into other objects, making more metal pieces. And at thousands of miles an hour, even a tiny piece could cause significant damage. Dr. Moriba Jah has been working on sounding the alarm. Guided by traditional ecological knowledge, he’s exploring a new path for responsible space exploration. From a young age, he decided to find a way to serve people. Maybe he’d help find the cure for AIDS. He considered it at the time. The dream agreed with his love for biology, but instead, he was enlisted in the army for four years, where the night experience in nature introduced him to satellites and turned his attention toward space. Now, Jah is a professor at The University of Texas at Austin and a space environmentalist. As a space environmentalist and scientist, Jah is working on solutions to the junk in the skies——a problem growing more quickly than ever since the late 1990s, with the development in commercial space exploration launching rockets more often than ever. In 2022, he mapped the human-made objects in Earth’s orbit (轨道) and helped launch a satellite and space junk tracker application available to the public. About 170 million space pieces are in Earth’s orbit, around 35,000 of which are large enough to be tracked. “The best solution unfortunately is to transport it to the earth and have it burn up in the atmosphere,” Jah highlights, but it pollutes the atmosphere in the process. Despite working in the eye of a growing problem in the skies, Jah is optimistic about the way forward. “Mother Nature is very resilient (有弹性的). We can see evidence of that,” he says. 24. What was probably Jah’s original dream? A. To be a solider. B. To develop drugs. C. To explore space. D. To become a professor. 25. What is Jah’s achievement? A. Developing a rocket. B. Mapping the earth’s orbit. C. Helping launch a special app. D. Designing man-made satellites. 26. What is the best way to deal with the space junk? A. Leave it as it is. B. Take it back and burn it. C. Track it in the air. D. Destroy it in space. 27. What is the passage mainly talking about? A. The side effects of space exploration. B. An effective way to solve space pollution. C. The development of commercial space exploration. D. A man paving the way for responsible space exploration. 【答案】24. B 25. C 26. B 27.

Now a new study showed that they can count out loud and they may even have the same number recognizing skills as human babies. Researchers found that crows can produce a specific number of caws (乌鸦叫) in response to visual or auditory stimuli (视觉和听觉刺激), enabling them to count out loud between one and four. The discovery is the first time that animals have been shown to count by making a number of vocalizations (发声). “Producing a specific number of vocalizations with purpose requires a combination of number recognizing abilities and voice control,” the researchers wrote in the study. “Our results show that crows can flexibly produce a number of vocalizations on purpose.” Many studies have shown that animals, including honeybees, lions, frogs and ants, have a number sense. Yet none of these provide enough evidence that animals share humans’ ability to count out loud. In the new study, the researchers presented three crows with visual and auditory stimuli. The visual stimuli is numbers and the auditory stimuli is the sounds of different instruments. After the training, the birds learned that each stimuli represents a set number of caws between one and four. After cawing four times for a sound or symbol associated with four caws, for example, the birds were trained to touch the screen with their mouth displaying them to signal they had finished. If the crows gave the right number of caws, they were rewarded with a treat. Once they were trained, the counting crows gave right responses— producing the correct number of caws. Even when the crows gave wrong responses, they were often mistakes made between numbers that were close together. “This competency in crows also mirrors babies’ skills before they learn to understand number words,” the scientists wrote. 28. What makes crows’ producing a particular number of vocalizations possible? A. Their facial recognition skill. B. Their quick reaction to sounds. C. The combination of their different learning skills. D. The ability to recognize numbers and control their voice. 29. Why were lions and ants mentioned in the passage? A. To compare the animals’ similarities. B. To prove crows are the cleverest birds. C. To show some animals have a number sense. D. To express their unique vocalizations. 30. What is paragraph 6 mainly about? A. The result of the training. B. The cost of the training. C. The difficulty of the training. D. The importance of the training. 31. What does the underlined word “competency” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Ability. B. Habit. C. Difference. D. Sound. 【答案】28. D 29. C 30. A 31. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项关于乌鸦数数能力的新研究，解释了乌鸦如何根据视觉和听觉刺激发出特定数量的叫声，以及这一发现对理解动物数字识别能力的意义。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段““Producing a specific number of vocalizations with purpose requires a combination of number recognizing abilities and voice control,” the researchers wrote in the study. “Our results show that crows can flexibly produce a number of vocalizations on purpose.”(研究人员发现，乌鸦能够根据视觉或听觉刺激发出特定数量的叫声，这使它们能够大声数出一到四的数字。这一发现是首次证明动物能够通过发出一定数量的叫声来进行计数。)”可知，乌鸦能够根据视觉或听觉刺激发出特定数量的叫声，这使它们能够大声数出一到四的数字。故选D。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Many studies have shown that animals, including honeybees, lions, frogs and ants, have a number sense. (许多研究表明，包括蜜蜂、狮子、青蛙和蚂蚁在内动物都具有一定的数字感。)”可知，在文章中提到狮子和蚂蚁是为了证明一些动物具有数字感，这一点在第四段中得到了明确说明。许多研究表明，包括蜜蜂、狮子、青蛙和蚂蚁在内的动物都具有一定的数字感。故选C。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第六段“After the training, the birds learned that each stimuli represents a set number of caws between one and four. After cawing four times for a sound or symbol associated with four caws, for example, the birds were trained to touch the screen with their mouth displaying them to signal they had finished.(经过训练后，这些鸟学会了每种刺激都代表一到四之间的一组特定数量的叫声。例如，在听到或看到与四次叫声相关的声音或符号后，乌鸦会叫四次，然后它们被训练用嘴触碰屏幕以显示它们已完成计数。如果乌鸦的叫声数量正确，它们就会得到食物奖励。)”可知，本段主要讲述了研究人员对乌鸦进行训练后得到的结果，即乌鸦能够学会将每种刺激与一组特定数量的叫声联系起来，并在给出正确数量的叫声后得到奖励。故选A。 【31题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线单词所在句““This competency in crows also mirrors babies’ skills before they learn to understand number words,” the scientists wrote.(“乌鸦的这种……也反映了婴儿在学习理解数字词汇之前的技能，”科学家们写道。)”可推测，这里指乌鸦的数数能力。划线单词的意思和下文的“skills”意思相似。选项A“Ability (能力)”；选项B“Habit (习惯)”；选项C“Difference (差别)”；选项D“Sound (声音)”。故选A。 D Orr, a sport ecologist at the University of Toronto, outlines how climate change is affecting sports in her new book, Warming Up: How Climate Change Is Changing Sport, providing a convincing case for action from athletes, sports leagues and fans alike. While Orr supports her argument with data and interviews with experts, it’s the personal stories that are most powerful. There’s the heartbreaking story of University of Maryland college football player Jordan McNair, who died of heat stroke (中暑) suffered at practice. The first 11 of the book’s 17 chapters mainly focus on how warming temperatures, rising seas, increasing wildfires and other effects of climate change are already impacting the industry and will worsen in the future. For instance, outdoor pond hockey is at risk of disappearing altogether as winters become warmer and ice becomes rarer. But against the backdrop of climate change’s horrible reality, Orr keeps hope alive in the last six chapters. The sports world can adapt to climate change to ensure that some sports survive. She spotlights the past and present activism of athletes who are fighting for sustainability (持续性). One heartening example is Innes FitzGerald, a teenage cross-country runner who refused to fly from Britain to Australia for the 2023 World Athletics Championships out of concern for air travel’s carbon emissions. Before FitzGerald, “no athlete had actually passed up championship opportunities because of concern about carbon emissions,” Orr notes. Like climate activism, it seems changes in sports will be led by the youth. Orr’s writing is authoritative and traditional, and while she sometimes uses academic terms, her language is largely accessible even to readers with no scientific background. The book is jam-packed with information and has something for sports lovers and ordinary fans alike. In the fight against climate change, Warming Up shows us that it’s time for the sports world to play ball. 32. What does Orr’s new book focus on? A. The problems facing the world. B. The effect of climate change on sports. C. The methods of keeping fit for athletes. D. The sports world’s attitude toward emission. 33. How does Orr prove her point in the book? A. She explains some confusing definitions. B. She tells of many experts’ personal stories. C. She uses some related figures and dialogues. D. She shows athletes’ efforts in protecting the environment. 34. What does Innes FitzGerald’s behavior show? A. Sports are in the bad need of changing. B. Flight is a main source of carbon emission. C. The young don’t take championships seriously. D. Young athletes are fighting against climate change. 35. Which words can best describe Orr’s new book? A. Popular and influential. B. Ordinary and cheap. C. Professional and scientific. D. Informative and understandable. 【答案】32. B 33. C 34. D 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要通过介绍多伦多大学的运动生态学家奥尔的新书《热身：气候变化如何改变运动》，详细阐述了气候变化对体育运动的影响，以及体育界如何适应这些变化。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Orr, a sport ecologist at the University of Toronto, outlines how climate change is affecting sports in her new book, Warming Up: How Climate Change Is Changing Sport, providing a convincing case for action from athletes, sports leagues and fans alike.(多伦多大学的运动生态学家奥尔在她的新书《热身：气候变化如何改变运动》中，概述了气候变化是如何影响体育运动的，并为运动员、体育联盟和球迷等群体采取行动提供了有力的证据。)”可知，奥尔的新书Warming Up: How Climate Change Is Changing Sport聚焦于气候变化是如何影响体育运动的。故选B。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“While Orr supports her argument with data and interviews with experts, it’s the personal stories that are most powerful. There’s the heartbreaking story of University of Maryland college football player Jordan McNair, who died of heat stroke (中暑) suffered at practice.(奥尔通过数据和专家访谈来支持她的论点，但最有力的还是那些个人故事。其中就有马里兰大学美式足球运动员乔丹·麦克奈尔令人心碎的故事，他在训练中因中暑不幸去世。)”可知，奥尔通过数据和专家访谈来支持她的论点，因此她使用了相关的数字和对话来证明她的观点。故选C。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第五段“One heartening example is Innes FitzGerald, a teenage cross-country runner who refused to fly from Britain to Australia for the 2023 World Athletics Championships out of concern for air travel’s carbon emissions. Before FitzGerald, “no athlete had actually passed up championship opportunities because of concern about carbon emissions,” Orr notes. Like climate activism, it seems changes in sports will be led by the youth.(一个令人振奋的例子是青少年越野跑者英尼斯·菲茨杰拉德，她出于对航空旅行碳排放的担忧，拒绝乘坐飞机从英国飞往澳大利亚参加2023年世界田径锦标赛。奥尔指出，在菲茨杰拉德之前，“还没有运动员因为担心碳排放而放弃参加锦标赛的机会”。就像气候行动主义一样，体育界的变革似乎也将由年轻人引领。)”可知，文章中提到英尼斯·菲茨杰拉德因为担心航空旅行的碳排放而拒绝飞往澳大利亚参加世界田径锦标赛，这表明年轻运动员正在采取行动对抗气候变化。故选D。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Orr’s writing is authoritative and traditional, and while she sometimes uses academic terms, her language is largely accessible even to readers with no scientific background. The book is jam-packed with information and has something for sports lovers and ordinary fans alike.(奥尔的写作风格权威而传统，尽管她有时会使用学术术语，但她的语言对于没有科学背景的读者来说也基本上是可以理解的。这本书信息量大，既适合体育爱好者，也适合普通球迷。)”可知，奥尔的新书信息量大，对于体育爱好者和普通球迷都有可读之处，同时她的语言对于没有科学背景的读者来说也基本上是可以理解的。因此，可以得出结论，奥尔的新书信息量大且易于理解。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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Negative Body Language Signs and How to Avoid Them Negative body language can ruin your relationships with others. ___36___ What are negative body language signs you might be employing?

I asked the receptionist (接待员) why they were collecting shoes. The receptionist told me that one of their optometrists participated in an annual eye-care mission in Africa. For a few weeks every year, the mission serviced people who didn’t have access to eye care or glasses. During the optometrist’s previous trip, he observed that many of the children who lined up for eye care didn’t wear shoes. He planned to take the donated shoes and offer them to his patients on his next eye-care mission. The woman sitting next to me didn’t believe there were such poor people and said something unpleasant. Although it’s not my nature to conflict with a stranger, I felt it necessary for me to tell her that her remark was not acceptable to me. I told the woman there were many other countries in the world that had similar situation. She challenged me to provide a personal example of how I know about this. I described our first trip to Cuba years ago when our family spent Christmas in a city in eastern Cuba. The hotel was pleasant, although not the high level of luxury found in hotels in Canada or the USA. My husband is a tennis enthusiast and decided to take some tennis lessons, while I sat on the sidelines observing his performance. During his first lesson, we both noticed the instructor’s tennis shoes were in poor condition. My husband enjoyed his instructor’s company and, after each lesson, we would have a chat with the instructor about the social and economic challenges of everyday life in Cuba. One day, the instructor commented on how much he admired my husband’s tennis shoes. He talked about how expensive it was to buy good tennis objects in Cuba. During their conversation, my husband learned they had the same shoe size. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 When he finished his last lesson, my husband took off his tennis shoes. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After hearing my story the woman sat in silence. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】When he finished his last lesson, my husband took off his tennis shoes. Without hesitation, he handed them over to the instructor, saying, “These are for you. I noticed your shoes are worn out, and I think these will fit you perfectly.” The instructor’s eyes widened with surprise and gratitude. Overwhelmed with emotion, he thanked my husband repeatedly. My husband smiled warmly, assuring the instructor that it was nothing but a small token of appreciation for the lessons and the insight into Cuban culture. After hearing my story, the woman sat in silence. Her earlier skepticism seemed to melt away. After a moment, she turned to me and softly apologized for her earlier remarks, acknowledging that she had been too quick to judge without fully understanding the reality of others’ situations. She then expressed admiration for the optometrist’s mission and my husband’s gesture, adding that she would consider donating some of her own shoes to the collection. The atmosphere that is between us became more friendly and open. We even ended up having a meaningful conversation about the importance of empathy and giving back to those in need. 【解析】 【导语】本文通过描述一次年度眼部检查时发生的一幕展开，反映了不同人对贫困现象的不同态度，并通过分享个人经历来传递理解和同情的重要性。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“当他结束最后一课时，我的丈夫脱下了他的网球鞋。”可知，第一段可描述丈夫慷慨地将鞋子赠送给教练的情景，展现了他的善良与同情心。 ②由第二段首句内容“听完我的故事后，那位女士沉默了。”可知，第二段可描写这位女士的态度转变，从最初的怀疑到理解，再到愿意贡献自己的力量帮助他人。 2.续写线索：发现鞋盒——了解原因——质疑——分享个人经历——丈夫赠鞋——女士反思——表达敬意——决定行动 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①脱下：take off/remove ②赠送：hand over/ present ③道歉：apologize/say sorry ④考虑：consider/think about 情绪类 ①感激：gratitude/thankfulness ②惊讶：surprise/astonishment 【点睛】[高分句型1] Without hesitation, he handed them over to the instructor, saying, “These are for you.
