Her first-graders sit on the reading blanket. “Last week, we worked with our puppets (玩偶) and learned a new strategy called belly-breathing,” Denoya says. “Today, we’re gonna learn how to shake out the yuck.” The children are quiet. They love this part, when they get to watch a video — with puppets. “Yuck is all those heavy feelings. Like when I’m nervous or scared or both, I imagine those feelings are stuck all over me,” one puppet says. “And then I shake them off, like this...” She playfully shakes her body like a wet dog. The kids can barely contain their excitement. Denoya invites them to shake it out. The five-minute video Denoya’s students watch is part of a series produced through a new pilot program called Feel Your Best Self, or FYBS. Each video is built around a simple strategy to help kids recognize and manage their feelings. “It’s taking what we know works,” says Emily Iovino, a trained school psychologist who’s part of the FYBS team. What works, Iovino says, is something called cognitive behavioral therapy, which involves various practical skill-building, including learning to change negative thinking patterns, better understand others’ motivations and face fears. For instance, in one video, called “Push The Clouds”, children are encouraged to visualize their sad feelings as dark storm clouds and to imagine pushing those clouds away. For this current program at Natchaug, Denoya’s first-graders also get to make their own puppets. Denoya invites the children to slide their puppets onto their hands and asks how the puppets are feeling. Many children exclaim (喊到), “Excited!” One little girl — Navayah — raises her hand and tells Denoya that, when she showed up to school this morning, “I was sad and nervous.” It turns out that this was Navayah’s first day at Natchaug. It’s a good thing that it started with learning how to shake out the yuck. “I’m feeling better!” Navayah says. She’s made two friends. “Teaching students to manage their emotions can have a great influence,” says Denoya. “This kind of harmony is showing up school-wide.” 1. What does the author intend to illustrate by describing Denoya’s class? A. A cognitive behavioral therapy. B. An enjoyable hobby shared by students. C. A novel teaching method of managing emotions. D. An effective way to catch students’ attention in class. 2. What can we infer about the FYBS program according to Iovino? A. It is nature-inspired. B. It is science-backed. C. It is puppet-focused. D. It is technology-based. 3. Why does the author mention the example of Navayah? A. To prove the positive impact of the FYBS program. B. To introduce students’ responses to the new technology. C. To highlight the necessity of using puppets in teaching. D. To show the advantage of Natchaug Elementary School. 4. What may be the best title for the text? A. Instructive skill-building plans B. Social-emotional learning puppets C. Competent teacher Leticia Denoya D. A new strategy to promote harmony B If you’ve ever used bluetooth, Wi-Fi or gotten driving directions from Google Maps, take a moment to say thanks to Hedy Lamarr. The Austrian-American actress, who was once called the “most beautiful woman in the world”, was born in Austria in 1914, and made her way to Hollywood in 1937, where she starred in some highly acclaimed (受到赞扬的) films. Beyond being an actress, though, Lamarr was a pioneering inventor. She was disinterested in partying and socializing with her workshop. Her inventions ranged from a tablet that could dissolve in water and transform it into a soda drink, to an improved design for traffic lights. By far, her most significant invention was sparked by her desire for helping America win a terrible war. Lamarr was of Jewish descent, and she was horrified by the news that was coming from WWII. She desperately wanted to help the Aliied Forces defeat the Nazis. One of the Allied Forces’ biggest problems was that their technology for guiding torpedoes (鱼雷) was often influenced by the Nazis. German U-boats could escape from Allied torpedoes by simply jamming the single radio frequency they used for guidance. So, to deal with this issue, Lamarr came up with a creative solution: frequency hopping. The tricky part was that the shifting frequency had to take place in synchronization (同步) with the radio transmitter guiding the torpedo. Otherwise, it would fail and the torpedo would go off track. However, Lamarr managed to overcome this challenge in 1942. Lamarr’s invention was never used by the US Navy during World War II, but it laid the foundation s for a broad range of radio communications technologies that we use today. Frequency hopping is now used for the bluetooth technology that we find in countless devices, and was also used in early forms of Wi-Fi, and it laid the foundation for the GPS you use on your smart phone on a regular basis. The world wouldn’t be quite the same without Lamarr’s inventive mind. 5. What can we learn about Hedy Lamarr? A. She was born in America. B. She started her acting career in 1914. C. She didn’t enjoy socializing with others. D. She was famous for her inventions in many fields. 6. What’s mainly discussed in paragraph 3? A. How Lamarr devised frequency hopping. B. Why Lamarr invented frequency hopping. C. Who influenced Lamarr the most in her career. D. What challenges Lamarr met when improving her invention. 7. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text? A To stress the importance of invention. B. To help people know more about WWII. C. To call for people to develop interest in science. D. To praise Lamarr’s contribution to modern communications. 8. In which column of a newspaper can we probably find the text? A. Health. B. People. C. Politics. D. Art. C Victorian state schools have blocked students and staff from ChatGPT while they assess the implications of the popular AI technology. The move comes amid fears from educators that students will use ChatGPT to cheat on assignments, accidentally introduce inaccuracies in their work, or write essays in a way that will keep them from learning the material. The Department of Education confirmed that access to the site at Victorian government schools has been blocked from Department servers and devices as a temporary measure due to ChatGPT’s terms of use specifying (明确规定) that users must be at least 18 years of age. “The department is undertaking further analysis of the implications of these emerging technologies and is preparing advice for schools,” a spokesman for the department said. Many international education bodies have banned the AI system, fearing students will use it to generate written work, although a number of educational experts have argued it has potential to help improve the work of disadvantaged students. University leaders from across Australia have held emergency meetings on how to deal with the new plagiarism (抄袭) threat. They are set to meet again for further discussions. Andrew Dalgleish, president of the Victorian Principals’ Association had not brought in a blanket ban but was quick to assess the benefits for teachers and children, but also the risks. “We want to see schools support the safe and appropriate use of these tools,” Andrew Dalgleish said. Australian Primary Principals Association president Malcolm Elliott said it was“sensible” for schools to block access to ChatGPT. “We need to approach this with our eyes open and think its negative implications as well. We have to understand this technology well and have very clear rules around how it’s used,” Mr Elliott said. “Clearly, artificial intelligence is here to stay and we need to come to grips with it because it will have an impact on all of our society.” 9. What is the main reason for banning Victorian public schools from ChatGPT? A. ChatGPT sets an age limit on getting access to it. B. ChatGPT may have a negative impact on learning. C. The government hasn’t put forward guiding proposals. D. Victorian public schools’ devices cannot support the system. 10. What is Andrew Dalgleish’s attitude towards ChatGPT? A. Opposed. B. Favorable. C. Cautious. D. Doubtful. 11. Which of the following would Malcolm Elliott agree with? A. The use of ChatGPT in schools should be regulated. B. Students poor at writing should use ChatGPT wisely. C. ChatGPT should be applied to education as soon as possible. D ChatGPT will have a significant impact on educational reforms. 12. What does the underlined phrase “come to grips with” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Find fault with. B. Let go of. C. Make notes of. D. Face up to. 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。 Resistance training, also known as strength training, uses weights or resistance to strengthen or increase one’s muscles. While many people associate such resistance with lifting free weights like dumbbells (哑铃) or using machine-based exercises such as chest or leg presses, other forms of resistance also qualify. ___13___ There are various benefits of resistance training. Research shows that adding 30 minutes of strength training to your workout routine each week could add years to your life. ___14___ Strength training has also been shown to strengthen joints and bones affected by medical conditions, and help with weight management goals since lifting weights improves metabolism (新陈代谢). ___15___ Monica Ciolino, a doctor of physical therapy at Washington University Physicians, says it’s also been linked to protection against degeneration of parts of the hippocampus (海马体) — a grain structure important in learning and memory. “Additionally, strength training may be associated with lower rates of depression and anxiety,” says Ciolino. Given so many advantages, why not try strength training? ___16___ DJ McDonough, a researcher at the University of Minnesota School of Public Health, says it’s best to choose the type of resistance training that appeals most to you: weights, or resistance bands, and then learn a few simple techniques. For instance, you can lift weights at your local gym, or you can buy several dumbbells or kettlebells to lift at home. ___17___ “When you are using weights, a good rule of thumb is that your muscles should be tired at the end of a set,” says McDonough, though he stresses the importance of not lifting too much, too soon. “So, start with lighter loads and increase weight and repetitions over time.” A. How can we get started? B. What benefits can we get from strength training? C. Once you get going, you may want to branch out and add a barbell. D. This is partly because it can significantly improve your heart health. E. Moreover, strength training can improve mental health in several ways. F. You’d better do strength training with the help of a professional trainer regularly. G. Body weight exercises like push-ups or sit-ups are other examples of resistance training. 第三部分：语言运用 （共三节，满分37.5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。 Being honest at work can be incredibly beneficial and allows one to live life with a clear conscience.

I’ve been around fora long time, and I’ve had my heart broken by many things. “Mom, please,” my son, Mark, said on the phone. “I need you to consider moving. Just come and get closer to us — the kids will love having you here.” Reluctantly (勉强地), I had to give in. At seventy years old, and although I felt absolutely fine and healthy, I didn’t know if living by myself, so far away from Mark, was a good idea. “Fine,” I said. “You can start looking for a house, and I’ll start sorting things out here.” When William passed away, a part of me did, too. I appreciated that I might lose something. The world was suddenly less energetic, and the days seemed longer. I spent evenings in the kitchen, making fresh cookies — more than I could eat, prompting me to send them over to my neighbors. We were all extremely close, and William and I often threw parties in our backyard. The truth was that William and I had been quite popular in Virginia. Our barbecue restaurant was a beacon (灯塔) for all enthusiasts from across the state. We also had a range of spices which sold well in supermarkets. William always tested our new products on our neighbors during our dinners. “Mom, I found the perfect house,” Mark said. “I’ve viewed it, and I think you’ll love it.” The next thing I knew, I was packing up my life and heading to California for a new adventure. A few weeks into my new community, California presented a challenge I had not anticipated. I knew I didn’t fit into the neighborhood. While those families were incredibly friendly to each other, they seemed to cast me aside. My attempts at conversation were often met with cold shoulders. I watched everyone glance at my house from the sidewalk. Desperate and alone, I missed everything in Virginia. I thought moving here would get rid of my loneliness, but this was just loneliness in a different guise (形式). “Maybe I need to do something,” I whispered. 注意： (1) 续写词数为150左右； (2) 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 The next day, Mark came to see me, and I talked to him about it. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Neighbors arrived, drawn by the promise of a meal. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1-5 CBBCA 6-10ACBBA 11-15ABACA 16-20 CACBC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 江苏省泰州中学2024~2025学年第一学期期中考试 高二英语试题 （考试时间：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，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。 1.

Each video is built around a simple strategy to help kids recognize and manage their feelings.(Denoya的学生观看的这段5分钟的视频是一个名为“感受你最好的自己”或者FYBS的新试点项目制作的系列视频的一部分。每个视频都围绕着一个简单的策略来帮助孩子们认识和管理他们的情绪)”可知，作者描述Denoya的课堂是想说明一种新颖的情绪管理教学方法，故选C。 【2题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中“What works, Iovino says, is something called cognitive behavioral therapy, which involves various practical skill-building, including learning to change negative thinking patterns, better understand others’ motivations and face fears.(Iovino说，有效的是一种叫做认知行为疗法的东西，它涉及到各种实用技能的培养，包括学习改变消极的思维模式，更好地理解他人的动机和面对恐惧)”可知，根据Iovino的说法，FYBS是有科学依据的，故选B。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“One little girl — Navayah — raises her hand and tells Denoya that, when she showed up to school this morning, ‘I was sad and nervous.’ It turns out that this was Navayah’s first day at Natchaug.

She’s made two friends.(一个名叫Navayah的小女孩举手告诉Denoya，当她今天早上出现在学校时，‘我又伤心又紧张。’原来这是Navayah在Natchaug的第一天。从学习如何摆脱厌恶开始是件好事。‘我感觉好多了！’Navayah说。她交了两个朋友)”可知，Navayah早上刚来学校时感到伤心又紧张，学习如何摆脱厌恶后感觉好多了，故作者提到Navayah是为了证明FYBS项目的积极影响，故选A。 【4题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第二段“‘Last week, we worked with our puppets (玩偶) and learned a new strategy called belly-breathing,’ Denoya says. ‘Today, we’re gonna learn how to shake out the yuck.’(‘上周，我们和我们的玩偶一起学习了一种叫做腹式呼吸的新策略，’Denoya说。‘今天，我们将学习如何摆脱恶心。’)”和第四段“The five-minute video Denoya’s students watch is part of a series produced through a new pilot program called Feel Your Best Self, or FYBS. Each video is built around a simple strategy to help kids recognize and manage their feelings.(Denoya的学生观看的这段5分钟的视频是一个名为‘感受你最好的自己’或者FYBS的新试点项目制作的系列视频的一部分。每个视频都围绕着一个简单的策略来帮助孩子们认识和管理他们的情绪)”可知，文章主要介绍了一种新颖的情绪管理教学方法FYBS项目，帮助孩子们和玩偶一起认识和管理他们的情绪。B项“社会-情绪学习玩偶”为最佳标题，故选B。 B If you’ve ever used bluetooth, Wi-Fi or gotten driving directions from Google Maps, take a moment to say thanks to Hedy Lamarr. The Austrian-American actress, who was once called the “most beautiful woman in the world”, was born in Austria in 1914, and made her way to Hollywood in 1937, where she starred in some highly acclaimed (受到赞扬的) films. Beyond being an actress, though, Lamarr was a pioneering inventor. She was disinterested in partying and socializing with her workshop. Her inventions ranged from a tablet that could dissolve in water and transform it into a soda drink, to an improved design for traffic lights. By far, her most significant invention was sparked by her desire for helping America win a terrible war. Lamarr was of Jewish descent, and she was horrified by the news that was coming from WWII. She desperately wanted to help the Aliied Forces defeat the Nazis. One of the Allied Forces’ biggest problems was that their technology for guiding torpedoes (鱼雷) was often influenced by the Nazis. German U-boats could escape from Allied torpedoes by simply jamming the single radio frequency they used for guidance. So, to deal with this issue, Lamarr came up with a creative solution: frequency hopping. The tricky part was that the shifting frequency had to take place in synchronization (同步) with the radio transmitter guiding the torpedo. Otherwise, it would fail and the torpedo would go off track. However, Lamarr managed to overcome this challenge in 1942. Lamarr’s invention was never used by the US Navy during World War II, but it laid the foundation s for a broad range of radio communications technologies that we use today. Frequency hopping is now used for the bluetooth technology that we find in countless devices, and was also used in early forms of Wi-Fi, and it laid the foundation for the GPS you use on your smart phone on a regular basis. The world wouldn’t be quite the same without Lamarr’s inventive mind. 5. What can we learn about Hedy Lamarr? A. She was born in America. B. She started her acting career in 1914. C. She didn’t enjoy socializing with others. D. She was famous for her inventions in many fields. 6. What’s mainly discussed in paragraph 3? A. How Lamarr devised frequency hopping. B. Why Lamarr invented frequency hopping. C. Who influenced Lamarr the most in her career. D. What challenges Lamarr met when improving her invention. 7. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To stress the importance of invention. B. To help people know more about WWII. C. To call for people to develop interest in science. D. To praise Lamarr’s contribution to modern communications. 8. In which column of a newspaper can we probably find the text? A. Health. B. People. C. Politics. D. Art. 【答案】5. C 6. B 7. D 8. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了拉玛对现代通讯的贡献。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Beyond being an actress, though, Lamarr was a pioneering inventor. She was disinterested in partying and socializing with her workshop.(除了是一名演员，拉玛还是一位开创性的发明家。她对聚会和与工作室的社交活动不感兴趣)”可知，她不喜欢和别人交往。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“German U-boats could escape from Allied torpedoes by simply jamming the single radio frequency they used for guidance. So, to deal with this issue, Lamarr came up with a creative solution: frequency hopping. (德国U型潜艇可以通过简单地干扰用于制导的单一无线电频率来逃脱盟军鱼雷的攻击。因此，为了解决这个问题，拉玛想出了一个创造性的解决方案：跳频)”可知，本段主要讲解拉玛发明了跳频的原因。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“If you’ve ever used bluetooth, Wi-Fi or gotten driving directions from Google Maps, take a moment to say thanks to Hedy Lamarr. (如果你曾经使用过蓝牙、Wi-Fi或从谷歌地图上获得过驾驶方向，那就花点时间对海蒂·拉玛说声感谢吧。)”以及后文对拉玛的发明的介绍，可知，本文的主要目的是赞扬拉玛对现代通讯的贡献。故选D。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“If you’ve ever used bluetooth, Wi-Fi or gotten driving directions from Google Maps, take a moment to say thanks to Hedy Lamarr. (如果你曾经使用过蓝牙、Wi-Fi或从谷歌地图上获得过驾驶方向，那就花点时间对海蒂·拉玛说声感谢吧。)”以及后文对拉玛的发明的介绍，可知，本文很可能出现在报纸的人物专栏上。故选B。 C Victorian state schools have blocked students and staff from ChatGPT while they assess the implications of the popular AI technology. The move comes amid fears from educators that students will use ChatGPT to cheat on assignments, accidentally introduce inaccuracies in their work, or write essays in a way that will keep them from learning the material. The Department of Education confirmed that access to the site at Victorian government schools has been blocked from Department servers and devices as a temporary measure due to ChatGPT’s terms of use specifying (明确规定) that users must be at least 18 years of age. “The department is undertaking further analysis of the implications of these emerging technologies and is preparing advice for schools,” a spokesman for the department said. Many international education bodies have banned the AI system, fearing students will use it to generate written work, although a number of educational experts have argued it has potential to help improve the work of disadvantaged students. University leaders from across Australia have held emergency meetings on how to deal with the new plagiarism (抄袭) threat. They are set to meet again for further discussions. Andrew Dalgleish, president of the Victorian Principals’ Association had not brought in a blanket ban but was quick to assess the benefits for teachers and children, but also the risks. “We want to see schools support the safe and appropriate use of these tools,” Andrew Dalgleish said. Australian Primary Principals Association president Malcolm Elliott said it was“sensible” for schools to block access to ChatGPT. “We need to approach this with our eyes open and think its negative implications as well. We have to understand this technology well and have very clear rules around how it’s used,” Mr Elliott said. “Clearly, artificial intelligence is here to stay and we need to come to grips with it because it will have an impact on all of our society.” 9. What is the main reason for banning Victorian public schools from ChatGPT? A. ChatGPT sets an age limit on getting access to it. B. ChatGPT may have a negative impact on learning. C. The government hasn’t put forward guiding proposals. D. Victorian public schools’ devices cannot support the system. 10. What is Andrew Dalgleish’s attitude towards ChatGPT? A. Opposed. B. Favorable. C. Cautious. D. Doubtful. 11. Which of the following would Malcolm Elliott agree with? A. The use of ChatGPT in schools should be regulated. B. Students poor at writing should use ChatGPT wisely. C ChatGPT should be applied to education as soon as possible. D. ChatGPT will have a significant impact on educational reforms. 12. What does the underlined phrase “come to grips with” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Find fault with. B. Let go of. C. Make notes of. D. Face up to. 【答案】9. B 10. C 11. A 12. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道，文章讲述了维多利亚州的公立学校禁止使用ChatGPT以及人们对此举的态度。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The move comes amid fears from educators that students will use ChatGPT to cheat on assignments, accidentally introduce inaccuracies in their work, or write essays in a way that will keep them from learning the material.(此举是因为教育工作者担心学生会利用ChatGPT在作业中作弊，不小心在作业中引入不准确的内容，或者在写论文时妨碍他们学习材料)”可知，维多利亚州的公立学校禁止使用ChatGPT是因为它可能会对学习产生负面影响，故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Andrew Dalgleish, president of the Victorian Principals’ Association had not brought in a blanket ban but was quick to assess the benefits for teachers and children, but also the risks. ‘We want to see schools support the safe and appropriate use of these tools,’ Andrew Dalgleish said.(维多利亚州校长协会主席Andrew Dalgleish并没有提出全面禁止，但他很快就评估了这对教师和孩子们的好处，但也评估了风险。‘我们希望看到学校支持安全、适当地使用这些工具，’Andrew Dalgleish说)”可知，Andrew Dalgleish对ChatGPT持谨慎态度，故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Australian Primary Principals Association president Malcolm Elliott said it was ‘sensible’ for schools to block access to ChatGPT.(澳大利亚小学校长协会主席Malcolm Elliott表示，学校屏蔽ChatGPT是‘明智的’)”和“We have to understand this technology well and have very clear rules around how it’s used(我们必须很好地理解这项技术，并就如何使用它制定非常明确的规则)”可知，Malcolm Elliott认为应该规范在学校使用ChatGPT，故选A。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词前“Clearly, artificial intelligence is here to stay(显然，人工智能将继续存在)”和后文“because it will have an impact on all of our society(因为它将对我们整个社会产生影响)”可知，人工智能将继续存在并将对我们整个社会产生影响，我们不能逃避它，故推测划线部分意为“我们需要勇敢面对它”，come to grips with意为“勇于面对”，故选D。 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Resistance training, also known as strength training, uses weights or resistance to strengthen or increase one’s muscles. While many people associate such resistance with lifting free weights like dumbbells (哑铃) or using machine-based exercises such as chest or leg presses, other forms of resistance also qualify. ___13___ There are various benefits of resistance training. Research shows that adding 30 minutes of strength training to your workout routine each week could add years to your life. ___14___ Strength training has also been shown to strengthen joints and bones affected by medical conditions, and help with weight management goals since lifting weights improves metabolism (新陈代谢). ___15___ Monica Ciolino, a doctor of physical therapy at Washington University Physicians, says it’s also been linked to protection against degeneration of parts of the hippocampus (海马体) — a grain structure important in learning and memory. “Additionally, strength training may be associated with lower rates of depression and anxiety,” says Ciolino. Given so many advantages, why not try strength training? ___16___ DJ McDonough, a researcher at the University of Minnesota School of Public Health, says it’s best to choose the type of resistance training that appeals most to you: weights, or resistance bands, and then learn a few simple techniques. For instance, you can lift weights at your local gym, or you can buy several dumbbells or kettlebells to lift at home. ___17___ “When you are using weights, a good rule of thumb is that your muscles should be tired at the end of a set,” says McDonough, though he stresses the importance of not lifting too much, too soon. “So, start with lighter loads and increase weight and repetitions over time.” A. How can we get started? B. What benefits can we get from strength training? C. Once you get going, you may want to branch out and add a barbell. D. This is partly because it can significantly improve your heart health. E. Moreover, strength training can improve mental health in several ways. F.

(华盛顿大学医学院的物理治疗医生莫妮卡·西奥利诺表示，它也与保护海马体的部分区域免于退化有关——海马体是在学习和记忆中起重要作用的颗粒结构。“此外，力量训练可能与较低的抑郁和焦虑发生率有关。”西奥利诺说)”可知，本段主要讲述力量训练对心理健康的好处，与E项“Moreover, strength training can improve mental health in several ways.

I’ve been around fora long time, and I’ve had my heart broken by many things. “Mom, please,” my son, Mark, said on the phone. “I need you to consider moving. Just come and get closer to us — the kids will love having you here.” Reluctantly (勉强地), I had to give in. At seventy years old, and although I felt absolutely fine and healthy, I didn’t know if living by myself, so far away from Mark, was a good idea. “Fine,” I said. “You can start looking for a house, and I’ll start sorting things out here.” When William passed away, a part of me did, too. I appreciated that I might lose something. The world was suddenly less energetic, and the days seemed longer. I spent evenings in the kitchen, making fresh cookies — more than I could eat, prompting me to send them over to my neighbors. We were all extremely close, and William and I often threw parties in our backyard. The truth was that William and I had been quite popular in Virginia. Our barbecue restaurant was a beacon (灯塔) for all enthusiasts from across the state. We also had a range of spices which sold well in supermarkets. William always tested our new products on our neighbors during our dinners. “Mom, I found the perfect house,” Mark said. “I’ve viewed it, and I think you’ll love it.” The next thing I knew, I was packing up my life and heading to California for a new adventure. A few weeks into my new community, California presented a challenge I had not anticipated. I knew I didn’t fit into the neighborhood. While those families were incredibly friendly to each other, they seemed to cast me aside. My attempts at conversation were often met with cold shoulders. I watched everyone glance at my house from the sidewalk. Desperate and alone, I missed everything in Virginia. I thought moving here would get rid of my loneliness, but this was just loneliness in a different guise (形式). “Maybe I need to do something,” I whispered. 注意： (1) 续写词数为150左右； (2) 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 The next day, Mark came to see me, and I talked to him about it. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Neighbors arrived, drawn by the promise of a meal. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible version: The next day, Mark came to see me, and I talked to him about it. I told him I would like to hold a barbecue party and bring the neighbors together for a meal. Understanding dawned in Mark’s eyes. He took me to the nearby supermarket, and we got everything we needed—including our spices. Over the next few days, with Mark and his family’s help, my backyard was transformed into a temporary barbecue restaurant. Then we sent out invitations door-to-door. As the first wisps of smoke rose into the air, carrying with them the mouthwatering scent of cooking meats, curiosity replaced the indifference I had grown accustomed to. Neighbors arrived, drawn by the promise of a meal. I greeted them as my guests arrived, their expressions a mix of surprise and excitement. As the day went on, my backyard filled with laughter. Mark, his wife and their children moved around our guests, serving, chatting, and breaking down the invisible barriers that had once seemed impossible to overcome. “It can only get better from here, Mum.” Mark smiled. Gradually, I found a sense of belonging in the new community, and the feeling of loneliness faded away. I discovered that as long as I opened my heart and bravely embraced new challenges, life would still be filled with hope and beauty. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，丈夫William去世后，作者独自住在弗吉尼亚的大房子里，在儿子Mark的劝说下，勉强同意搬家靠近他们。之后作者开始打包前往加利福尼亚开启新生活。但在新社区的几周里，作者面临挑战，感觉不被邻居接纳，十分孤独，本以为搬家能消除孤独，没想到只是换了一种形式，作者觉得或许需要做点什么来改变现状。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第二天，马克来看我，我和他谈起了这件事。”可知，第一段可描写作者和Mark商量打算邀请邻居们举办一个烧烤派对，Mark恍然大悟，去超市购买了所需的一切，并将后院布置成了一个临时的烧烤餐厅，然后挨家挨户去邀请邻居，等待着邻居们的到来。 ②由第二段首句内容“邻居们被一顿饭的承诺吸引而来。”可知，第二段可描写邻居们到来，惊讶又兴奋，后院充满了欢声笑语，打破了无法逾越的障碍，作者在新社区中有了归属感。 2.续写线索：烧烤派对——恍然大悟——购物——帮助——邀请——吸引——到达——欢声笑语——打破障碍——归属感 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①告诉：told /said /informed /related ②送出：sent out /distributed /dispatched 情绪类 ①冷漠：indifference /apathy /coldness /unconcern ②孤独：loneliness /solitude /isolation /lonesomeness 【点睛】[高分句型1] As the first wisps of smoke rose into the air, carrying with them the mouthwatering scent of cooking meats, curiosity replaced the indifference I had grown accustomed to.
