Therefore, if you have a keen interest in meeting your curiosity about it, the following on the UNESCO’s World Heritage List will be a must-check list for you. Dinosaur Provincial Park, Canada The park is best known for its extensive fossil beds, within which 35 species of dinosaurs from about 100 to 65 million years ago have been identified. There are also fossilized remains of fish, reptiles, and amphibians. The area was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1979. Salonga National Park, Congo This is the largest reserve in Congo, covering more than 14,000 square miles. The park was established in 1970. The thick forest provides habitats for various animals like parrots, elephants and monkeys. Park visitors observe the animals from motorized river boats. The park entered the list of UNESCO World Heritage sites in 1984. Hadrian’s Wall, England This is a Roman barrier that guarded the border of Britain. Hadrian (ruled 117 — 138 CE) went to Britain in 122 and was the first to build a wall, 80 miles long, to separate the Romans from the barbarians (野蛮人). There was no intention of fighting from the wall top; the soldiers there were trained to encounter the enemy in the open. In 1987, Hadrian’s Wall was recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage site. Easter Island, Chile This place is famous for its huge stone statues. The first European visitors, the Dutch, named it Easter Island in memory of their day of arrival. The small and hilly island was formed by volcanoes. Easter Island was added to UNESCO’s World Heritage List in 1995. 1. If you want to study fossils in college, which site would you like to visit? A. Easter Island. B. Dinosaur Provincial Park. C. Hadrian’s Wall. D. Salonga National Park. 2. What do Salonga National Park and Hadrian’s wall have in common? A. Both had walls built to guard the border. B. People may see barbarians fighting with others. C. People can admire different animals from river boats. D. Both were added to UNESCO World Heritage List in the 1980s. 3. Why was the island in Chile named Easter Island? A. To celebrate the Easter Day. B. To memorize the arrival of the Dutch. C. To introduce its huge stone status. D. To honor the first European visitors. B I have a strong faith that the pain is almost gone but the feeling of success will stay forever. I was among the 38,000 runners who participated in the marathon, the largest event of its kind in Asia. My decision to participate in the marathon was because of the insistence (坚持) of my wife, who had run the half-marathon before. This year, she wanted me to participate along with her. Unexpectedly, her application got rejected while mine got accepted. Though I had been into fitness training before, it seemed to be a daunting task to run 21 km. I started training about 10 weeks before the day. I had made up my mind to finish the run. So I tried my best to accommodate training into my busy schedule whenever I could. What’s more, I remembered that four weeks into my training, my shoes were worn. I searched and hunted and literally spent a fortune on a new pair of shoes. However, right on the first day of running with them, I felt that they were not for me. I preserved, thinking that my discomfort was because the shoes were new. Eventually, I gave up on them. I even tried looking for another new pair of shoes, but couldn’t find a pair as comfortable as my old one. Finally, on 16th January 2011, I ran and completed the half-marathon. And I did it in my old shoes. Now, when I think about it, it all seems so easy. All I had to do was to picture completing the run in good time in my mind. What I have learned from the experience is that completing a marathon is like any other goal in life—largely a mind-over-matter phenomenon. In other words, unless you believe you can reach your goal, you’ve lost even before you begin. No doubt, factors such as hard work, experience and talent help to a greater or lesser degree. But without your belief that you will get there, every goal remains difficult to achieve. 4. Why did the writer participate in the marathon at first? A. It was the largest event of its kind. B. He had run the half-marathon before. C. His wife insisted on him participating. D. He had been training for a long time. 5. What can we learn from paragraph 3? A. The writers’s old shoes were very expensive. B. The writer tried his best to do some marathon training. C. The writer was the best among all the marathonrunners. D. The writer’s fitness training before was only a little help to him in the run. 6. What does the writer want to show by mentioning the mind-over-matter phenomenon? A. Self-confidence is the primary factor in a marathon. B. It would be easy if you made up your mind to begin it. C. Hard work is important on the road to your final success. D. To win a marathon depends on your mind, not on your shoes. 7. Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A. A Painful Experience B. A Perfect Pair of Shoes C. A Challenging Training D. A Running Lesson C Previous studies have suggested children who spend their days looking out of the window instead of paying attention may be among the cleverest pupils. The latest study, however, suggests in the long run constantly (持续) daydreaming will leave children struggling to keep up with their peers. Dr Agnieszka Graham, a lecturer in applied developmental psychology at Queen’s University Belfast, said, “In school, often children can get in trouble for mind wandering (神游). It is sometimes viewed as a sign of disrespect or misbehavior if they are not paying attention.” The study, conducted by Queen’s University Belfast, is the first to deal with the impact of so-called “mind wandering” on learning in young children. The researchers played a story about a fictional pharaoh in ancient Egypt to 97 children aged 6-11 and asked them a question every two minutes to check if they were paying attention. The study found that mind wandering had a significant impact on learning, as children who daydreamed the most remembered less about the story. The researchers discovered the children’s minds wandered a quarter of the time, and they could not help it. According to the study, daydreaming during a classroom-style listening activity is not only common but also harmful to memory in children. And because the impact of daydreaming is so clear, teachers should consider how they teach young children to reduce mind wandering. However, the research has found children, like adults, are unable to fully concentrate all the time; it’s likely that their minds will wander several times in a typical school day. The findings show that further exploring the causes and consequences of mind wandering in these early years at school could provide a solid foundation for developing interventions (干预), which will help children find out when their attention drifts away from the present task and refocus their attention. 8. Why did Queen’s University Belfast conduct the study? A. To improve children’s memory. B. To learn a story about ancient Egypt. C. To check children’s attention in class. D. To research the influence of mind wandering. 9. What might the researchers advise teachers to do? A. Help children concentrate. B. Help with further research. C. Reduce their own mind wandering. D. Work harder while teaching the young. 10. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Adults can reduce mind wandering. B. Adults can fully concentrate all the time. C. Children’s mind wandering is not unsolvable. D. Children’s mind wandering can not be intervened. 11. What’s the author’s attitude to the findings? A. Positive. B. Negative. C. Uninterested. D. Unclear. D Scientists at Rice University in Houston, Texas have developed a wearable tool that “hits” users’ wrists (腕关节) with pressurized air, silently guiding them to their finishing point. The study, put out on August 29 in the magazine Device, showed that users could correctly read which direction the tool was telling them to go since the wearable uses air instead of electronics, it can be built lighter than present designs. The wearables may benefit people with hearing loss, and experts such as doctors, pilots, and soldiers who are crowded with signs and sounds. But while tools that produce signs or sounds are prevalent in everyday life, tools that use touch-based signs are still uncommon. To get over this difficulty, the Rice University researchers developed a light, comfortable wearable tool from fabric (织物) materials that can be worn on a user’s arm. The team tested the tool by measuring forces applied to the user as a function of pressure and the shape of the wearable. “Every person has a differently shaped arm, a different feeling of what ‘feels good’ in terms of the forces applied and the timing of the forces, and different abilities in responding to the type of touch-based signs we sent,” said Barclay Jumet, the lead author of the study. “Fortunately, our fabric-based wearable tool is easily tailorable and adjustable (可调节的) to a series of body types and sizes.” After testing the performance of the touch-based wearable tool in a lab-based study, the researchers set out to see how well these tools could guide users in a real-world situation. “We were amazed that the user was able to find his way around the streets of Houston and later follow 50 meters long on an open field with 100% exactness in receiving and reading touch-based signs,” said Daniel Preston, the co-author of the study, “Further development will seek to improve the ability to pass on even more difficult signs that are easily and naturally noticed by the user,” said Preston. 12. Why are the wearable tools lighter? A. The wrist requires lighter tools. B. They can be worn on a user’s arm. C. They use air to “hit” users’ wrists. D. The materials to make them are light. 13. What does the underlined word “prevalent” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Powerful. B. Advanced. C. Confusing. D. Common. 14. How can the problem of different body types and sizes be solved? A. By carrying out more studies. B. By developing high-quality fabric. C. By tailoring and adjusting the tool. D. By sending exact touch-based signs. 15. What is paragraph 5 mainly about? A. The cause of testing the tool in real life. B. The test of the tool’s real-life performance. C. The design of the touch-based wearable tool. D. The necessity of stepping from the lab to the real world. 第二节(共5个小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，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。 How to Be a Successful High School Student Being a successful high school student requires both patience and power.

I am 23 years old, I am a college student, and I have a story that I feel should be shared with the world. I come from a family that had never had a single record of ancestry with autism (自闭症), until the day I was born. When I was two years old, my parents were still getting used to the lifestyle of raising a normal kid, but what they had noticed was what they considered “out of the ordinary” behavior. Whatever toys I played with, I placed them in a straight line. When I was not satisfied, I got angry easily. Soon after my parents noticed these signs, they took me to a child expert, who eventually informed them that I was diagnosed (诊断) with a type of autism, a disorder that delays the nervous growth of a child’s brain. My diagnosis was in 1999, a time when autism was still not commonly understood and was still being observed. At first, my parents were shocked at the news from an expert that I was going to grow up blind, but they (and I) were not prepared for how the following events would completely change our lives forever. As I got older, I began to change from keeping myself alone to getting with other kids once I entered public school in first grade. I noticed how the other kids were able to answer questions in class a lot faster than I could understand. Because of my slow thinking, it took me two minutes to come up with an answer. From that year on, I received special accommodations for my studies, such as sitting in front of the class to read the blackboard better, and taking longer time on tests. 注意： 1. 续写词数应150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 My teacher and classmates tried their best to help me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Thanks to my classmates, I made great changes. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 云南大学附属中学星耀学校2024—2025学年(上)期中考试 高一英语试卷 (考试时长：120分钟 总分：150分) 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、Ｃ三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

But without your belief that you will get there, every goal remains difficult to achieve. 4. Why did the writer participate in the marathon at first? A. It was the largest event of its kind. B. He had run the half-marathon before. C. His wife insisted on him participating. D. He had been training for a long time. 5. What can we learn from paragraph 3? A. The writers’s old shoes were very expensive. B. The writer tried his best to do some marathon training. C. The writer was the best among all the marathonrunners. D. The writer’s fitness training before was only a little help to him in the run. 6. What does the writer want to show by mentioning the mind-over-matter phenomenon? A. Self-confidence is the primary factor in a marathon. B. It would be easy if you made up your mind to begin it. C. Hard work is important on the road to your final success. D. To win a marathon depends on your mind, not on your shoes. 7. Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A. A Painful Experience B. A Perfect Pair of Shoes C A Challenging Training D. A Running Lesson 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。本文主要讲述了作者第一次参加马拉松比赛的经历和体会。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“My decision to participate in the marathon was because of the insistence (坚持) of my wife, who had run the half-marathon before. This year, she wanted me to participate along with her. Unexpectedly, her application got rejected while mine got accepted.(我决定参加马拉松是因为我的妻子的坚持，她之前跑过半程马拉松。今年，她想让我和她一起参加。出乎意料的是，她的申请被拒绝了，而我的申请被接受了。)”可知，作者最初要参加马拉松是因为他的妻子坚持要他参加。故选C项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的内容，特别是其中的句子“So I tried my best to accommodate training into my busy schedule whenever I could.(所以我尽我最大的努力在我繁忙的日程中安排训练。)”可知，作者尽他最大的努力做一些马拉松训练。故选B项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段的句子“What I have learned from the experience is that completing a marathon is like any other goal in life—largely a mind-over-matter phenomenon. In other words, unless you believe you can reach your goal, you’ve lost even before you begin. No doubt, factors such as hard work, experience and talent help to a greater or lesser degree. But without your belief that you will get there, every goal remains difficult to achieve.(我从这次经历中学到的是，完成马拉松就像生活中的任何其他目标一样，在很大程度上是一种精神超越物质的现象。换句话说，除非你相信你能达到你的目标，否则你在开始之前就已经失败了。毫无疑问，努力工作、经验和天赋等因素或多或少都有帮助。但是，如果你不相信你会实现目标，那么每个目标都很难实现。)”可知，最后一段作者强调相信自己的重要性，所以，作者提到精神高于物质的现象想要说明自信是马拉松比赛的首要因素。故选A项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。本文主要讲述了作者第一次参加马拉松比赛的经历和体会。所以用D项“A Running Lesson(一堂跑步课)”作为本文的题目，与文章主题相符合。故选D项。 C Previous studies have suggested children who spend their days looking out of the window instead of paying attention may be among the cleverest pupils. The latest study, however, suggests in the long run constantly (持续) daydreaming will leave children struggling to keep up with their peers. Dr Agnieszka Graham, a lecturer in applied developmental psychology at Queen’s University Belfast, said, “In school, often children can get in trouble for mind wandering (神游). It is sometimes viewed as a sign of disrespect or misbehavior if they are not paying attention.” The study, conducted by Queen’s University Belfast, is the first to deal with the impact of so-called “mind wandering” on learning in young children. The researchers played a story about a fictional pharaoh in ancient Egypt to 97 children aged 6-11 and asked them a question every two minutes to check if they were paying attention. The study found that mind wandering had a significant impact on learning, as children who daydreamed the most remembered less about the story. The researchers discovered the children’s minds wandered a quarter of the time, and they could not help it. According to the study, daydreaming during a classroom-style listening activity is not only common but also harmful to memory in children. And because the impact of daydreaming is so clear, teachers should consider how they teach young children to reduce mind wandering. However, the research has found children, like adults, are unable to fully concentrate all the time; it’s likely that their minds will wander several times in a typical school day. The findings show that further exploring the causes and consequences of mind wandering in these early years at school could provide a solid foundation for developing interventions (干预), which will help children find out when their attention drifts away from the present task and refocus their attention. 8. Why did Queen’s University Belfast conduct the study? A. To improve children’s memory. B. To learn a story about ancient Egypt. C. To check children’s attention in class. D. To research the influence of mind wandering. 9. What might the researchers advise teachers to do? A. Help children concentrate. B. Help with further research. C. Reduce their own mind wandering. D. Work harder while teaching the young. 10. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Adults can reduce mind wandering. B. Adults can fully concentrate all the time. C. Children’s mind wandering is not unsolvable. D. Children’s mind wandering can not be intervened. 11. What’s the author’s attitude to the findings? A. Positive. B. Negative. C. Uninterested. D. Unclear. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了研究表明，走神会影响学生在校的学习表现。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The study, conducted by Queen’s University Belfast, is the first to deal with the impact of so-called “mind wandering” on learning in young children.(这项由贝尔法斯特女王大学进行的研究首次探讨了所谓的“走神”对幼儿学习的影响。)”可知，贝尔法斯特女王大学进行这项研究是为了探索走神对幼儿学习的影响。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“And because the impact of daydreaming is so clear, teachers should consider how they teach young children to reduce mind wandering.(由于幻想的影响是如此明显，教师应该考虑如何教幼儿减少走神。)”可知，教师应该考虑如何让幼儿学习减少走神，即帮助幼儿学习集中注意力。故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“The findings show that further exploring the causes and consequences of mind wandering in these early years at school could provide a solid foundation for developing interventions (干预), which will help children find out when their attention drifts away from the present task and refocus their attention.(研究结果表明，进一步探索学龄儿童早期注意力分散的原因和后果，可以为开发干预措施奠定坚实基础，这些干预措施将帮助儿童发现他们的注意力何时从当前任务中转移，并重新集中注意力。)”可推知，儿童的走神问题可以通过干预措施来解决。故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“The latest study, however, suggests in the long run constantly daydreaming will leave children struggling to keep up with their peers.(然而，最新的研究表明，从长远来看，不断做白日梦会让孩子们难以跟上同龄人的步伐。)”和“In school, often children can get in trouble for mind wandering. It is sometimes viewed as a sign of disrespect or misbehavior if they are not paying attention.(在学校里，孩子们经常会因为走神而遇到麻烦。如果他们不注意，有时会被视为不尊重或不当行为的表现。)”以及第三段中的“According to the study, daydreaming during a classroom-style listening activity is not only common but also harmful to memory in children.(根据这项研究，在课堂式听力活动中做白日梦不仅很常见，而且对儿童的记忆力也有害。)”可知，作者提出了最新研究的观点，其认为走神会影响孩子的学习表现，并讲述了孩子走神时会遭遇的麻烦以及后果，由此可推测出，作者对走神这一问题持消极的态度。故选B。 D Scientists at Rice University in Houston, Texas have developed a wearable tool that “hits” users’ wrists (腕关节) with pressurized air, silently guiding them to their finishing point. The study, put out on August 29 in the magazine Device, showed that users could correctly read which direction the tool was telling them to go since the wearable uses air instead of electronics, it can be built lighter than present designs. The wearables may benefit people with hearing loss, and experts such as doctors, pilots, and soldiers who are crowded with signs and sounds. But while tools that produce signs or sounds are prevalent in everyday life, tools that use touch-based signs are still uncommon. To get over this difficulty, the Rice University researchers developed a light, comfortable wearable tool from fabric (织物) materials that can be worn on a user’s arm. The team tested the tool by measuring forces applied to the user as a function of pressure and the shape of the wearable. “Every person has a differently shaped arm, a different feeling of what ‘feels good’ in terms of the forces applied and the timing of the forces, and different abilities in responding to the type of touch-based signs we sent,” said Barclay Jumet, the lead author of the study. “Fortunately, our fabric-based wearable tool is easily tailorable and adjustable (可调节的) to a series of body types and sizes.” After testing the performance of the touch-based wearable tool in a lab-based study, the researchers set out to see how well these tools could guide users in a real-world situation. “We were amazed that the user was able to find his way around the streets of Houston and later follow 50 meters long on an open field with 100% exactness in receiving and reading touch-based signs,” said Daniel Preston, the co-author of the study, “Further development will seek to improve the ability to pass on even more difficult signs that are easily and naturally noticed by the user,” said Preston. 12. Why are the wearable tools lighter? A. The wrist requires lighter tools. B. They can be worn on a user’s arm. C. They use air to “hit” users’ wrists. D. The materials to make them are light. 13. What does the underlined word “prevalent” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Powerful. B. Advanced. C. Confusing. D. Common. 14. How can the problem of different body types and sizes be solved? A. By carrying out more studies. B. By developing high-quality fabric. C. By tailoring and adjusting the tool. D. By sending exact touch-based signs. 15. What is paragraph 5 mainly about? A. The cause of testing the tool in real life. B. The test of the tool’s real-life performance. C. The design of the touch-based wearable tool. D. The necessity of stepping from the lab to the real world. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了科学家们开发了一种基于触觉的可穿戴设备，该设备通过向用户的手腕施加气压来引导用户到达目的地。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“the wearable uses air instead of electronics, it can be built lighter than present designs.(这种可穿戴设备使用空气而不是电子元件，因此可以做得比现在的设计更轻。)”可知，可穿戴设备更轻是因为它们使用空气“敲击”用户的手腕。故选C。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第二段“But while tools that produce signs or sounds are prevalent in everyday life, tools that use touch-based signs are still uncommon.(然而，虽然产生标志或声音的工具在日常生活中很常见，但使用基于触摸的标志的工具仍然不常见。)中的转折词“but”可知，前半句和后半句之间形成转折关系，所以可推测出“prevalent”与“uncommon”是反义词，uncommon的意思是“不常见的”，那么prevalent的意思与之相反，为“常见的”。因此，单词“prevalent”在此处意为“常见的”。故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“our fabric-based wearable tool is easily tailorable and adjustable (可调节的) to a series of body types and sizes.(我们的基于织物的可穿戴工具可以轻松裁剪和调整以适应不同的体型和尺寸。)”可知，可以通过裁剪和调整工具来解决不同体型和尺寸的问题。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第五段“After testing the performance of the touch-based wearable tool in a lab-based study, the researchers set out to see how well these tools could guide users in a real-world situation.(在基于实验室的研究中测试了基于触摸的可穿戴工具的性能后，研究人员开始研究这些工具在现实世界中指导用户的效果如何。)”和接下来引用了研究合作者丹尼尔·普雷斯顿的话，具体介绍了实验情况可知，第五段主要讲的是测试工具在现实生活中的表现。故选B。 第二节(共5个小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，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。 How to Be a Successful High School Student Being a successful high school student requires both patience and power.

I am 23 years old, I am a college student, and I have a story that I feel should be shared with the world. I come from a family that had never had a single record of ancestry with autism (自闭症), until the day I was born. When I was two years old, my parents were still getting used to the lifestyle of raising a normal kid, but what they had noticed was what they considered “out of the ordinary” behavior. Whatever toys I played with, I placed them in a straight line. When I was not satisfied, I got angry easily. Soon after my parents noticed these signs, they took me to a child expert, who eventually informed them that I was diagnosed (诊断) with a type of autism, a disorder that delays the nervous growth of a child’s brain. My diagnosis was in 1999, a time when autism was still not commonly understood and was still being observed. At first, my parents were shocked at the news from an expert that I was going to grow up blind, but they (and I) were not prepared for how the following events would completely change our lives forever. As I got older, I began to change from keeping myself alone to getting with other kids once I entered public school in first grade. I noticed how the other kids were able to answer questions in class a lot faster than I could understand. Because of my slow thinking, it took me two minutes to come up with an answer. From that year on, I received special accommodations for my studies, such as sitting in front of the class to read the blackboard better, and taking longer time on tests. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 My teacher and classmates tried their best to help me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Thanks to my classmates, I made great changes. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: My teacher and classmates tried their best to help me. I found more and more classmates were very friendly and kind to me. They often discussed questions and did homework with me. Several classmates always invited me to go to school with them. On the way, we talked happily. My teacher tried to ask me to answer many questions in class. What benefited me most was that the teacher let me attend the school summer camp, and I fully integrated into the society. Thanks to my classmates, I made great changes. In class, I could answer the teacher’s questions correctly and quickly. I no longer felt lonely and I became active and cheerful. I would warmly greet my classmates when I met them. And I made a lot of good friends. I also participated in various activities in school, such as playing basketball and football. I also took part in speech competitions. I got A’s in all my subjects. Finally, I was admitted to a famous university. 【解析】 【导语】本文以事件为线索展开，讲述了现在已经是一名大学生的作者小时候被确诊为自闭症患者，当时自闭症还没有被广泛了解，父母和作者没有准备好这种病将如何改变他们的生活。在作者进入公立学校一年级的时候，他注意到与其他孩子相比自己要花更多的时间去思考答案，因此在学习上他开始得到特殊照顾。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我的老师和同学尽了最大的努力来帮助我。”可知，第一段可描写老师和同学分别给予作者的帮助。 ②由第二段首句内容“感谢我的同学，我做出了很大的改变。”可知，第二段可描写作者在学习和生活上积极的改变，以及最后学习很好顺利进入大学。 2. 续写线索：老师和同学尽力帮助——同学的帮助——老师的帮助——作者有了改变——学习和生活的改变——顺利进入大学 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①讨论：discuss/talk about ②要求：ask/request ③打招呼：greet/address/say hello to ④参与：participate in/take part in/attend ⑤得到：get/obtain/gain 情绪类 ①开心地：happily/merrily/joyfully ②孤单的：lonely/isolated 点睛】[高分句型1] What benefited me most was that the teacher let me attend the school summer camp, and I fully integrated into the society.
