As a navigation (航海) major, Song Yin should have sailed a boat. But a campus career fair changed her career trajectory (轨迹), and she became one of China’s first two female rescue helicopter pilots.
When she was in third year at Shanghai Maritime University, the Donghai No.1 flying rescue service came looking for female pilots. Song was the hot favorite for career fair. Tall, thin, good-looking, she was a big shot on campus. Also, she is good at sports, especially basketball that requires a considerable level of coordination (协调性) — an important quality for pilots.
She was admitted as a female rescue helicopter pilot. “At first, I thought it was cool and fun.” She said. However, when the job really got started, the reality was totally different from her imagination.
Rescue operations always come with danger. One of her most dangerous missions took place in December 2016 when a boat was involved in flames in the East China Sea, leaving 10 fishermen at death’s door. Song rushed to fly the helicopter to the scene. She was informed that the gas cylinders (气瓶) on the boat could blow up at any time. Without panic, she managed to hover at higher altitude to keep away from the dense smoke. Fortunately, not one of rescuers was injured, and all of the 10 fishermen were rescued from the burning boat. “We are not just saving 10 people but also 10 families,” she said.
Like any other sports fan, she enjoys watching the Tokyo Olympics when she isn’t busy. “My idol is Chinese striker Wang Shuang. She’s so great.” she said. “When the Chinese team was many goals behind the Dutch team, she still didn’t give up, and she encouraged her teammates to fight till the end.” She added, “If you give up, you must lose. But if you push on, you won’t necessarily lose. It’s just the same as my job.”
4. What is the main factor of her being admitted as a female pilot?
A. She graduated from a top university.
B. She has a high level of coordination.
C. She has a well-built figure.
D. She is very popular on campus.
5. Which of the following best describes Song Yin from Paragraph 4?
A. Optimistic and humorous. B. Caring and patient.
C. Sensitive and ambitious. D. Brave and calm.
6. Why does Song Yin mention Wang Shuang in the last paragraph?
A. To appeal to young people to join in sports.
B. To compare two similar challenging jobs.
C. To motivate people to be persistent.
D. To expect people to learn from failure.

Yellowstone National Park is a territory of extraordinary natural beauty that can bless the spirit like no other. There are numerous remarkable places in Yellowstone that seem designed for travelers to simply sit back and admire. Unfold your picnic chair at Pet Creek and let the sound of its rushing waters bless your mind and soul. The park’s north, where dense trees stretch out into rolling meadows in Lamar Valley, is a sight to behold. The lush fields are watched by babbling brooks and framed by a backdrop of snow-capped peaks. It’s a splendid display of nature’s grandeur (壮丽).
Bringing binoculars allows you to catch a closer glimpse of the rare wild bison and other native animals. When evening sets in, you can set up your tent at one of the many campsites or head out of the park’s north entrance to Garner. This gateway town is the perfect haven for weary travelers. Warm yourself with a hearty meal at one of the many superb eateries (饭馆) before continuing your epic adventure in Yellowstone.
In Yellowstone, every step in any direction is like a journey to another world. It is a place where one can wander freely and experience the diverse beauty of nature. The enormous landscapes, the visible wonders, and the rewarding experiences all appeal to those with an appetite for adventure. Whether it’s the rushing fountain — like waters, the charming cottages scattered around, or the majestic mountains, Yellowstone offers a unique and unforgettable experience. Prohibiting activities that harm the environment ensures that this natural paradise remains intact for generations to come.

Last Saturday, David was taking a walk in the park near his home when he noticed a woman with a boy of about eight years old. When David passed them, he heard the woman yell. “How stupid you are! You’re good at nothing.” David stopped and looked at the little boy. The boy said nothing. He just stood there, looking upset.
David was reminded of his English teacher Mrs Brown in middle school. After he entered a middle school David lacked self-confidence because he was often made fun of by others. He was often told that he was good at nothing, which David behaved. But one day it all changed.
One day, in an English writing class, Mrs Brown asked them to read a novel. They were asked to write a new chapter of the novel after they finished reading it. A few days later, David handed in his story. He didn’t give it much thought. But the next day, to his surprise, the comment “well done” from Mrs Brown came into view the moment he turned to the page where the story was written. When David read that, he almost burst into tears. He never expected to be praised one day. He suddenly gained some self-confidence.
That day after he returned home, he wrote a short story and gave it to Mrs Brown the next morning. And again he was praised. David became very interested in writing. He often wrote short stories and asked Mrs Brown to read them improve writing skills. One year later, David joined the school newspaper and became an editor of it. He was no longer that boy who lacked self-confidence. He gained his confidence, and was hopeful about his future.
He succeeded in entering a college and kept writing. Several years after graduating from college, he had his first book published. With some more books coming out, he became famous as a writer in his country. And he owed his success to Mrs Brown’s encouragement. Without her encouragement, his life might be very different now.
注意:
1. 续写词数应150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Inspired by his own life story, David decided to do something for that boy.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The mother was ashamed when she heard that.

Much meaning can be conveyed clearly with our eyes, so it is often said that eyes can speak.
___11___ In a bus you may look at a stranger but not far too long. And if he sensed that you are staring at him he may feel uncomfortable.
The same is true in our daily life. If you are stared at for more than necessary, you will look at yourself up and down to see if there is anything wrong with you. ___12___ Eyes do speak, right?
Looking too long at someone may seem to be side and aggressive ___13___ If a man stares at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to look away from her, his intentions are obvious. He wishes to attract her attention, and let her know that he is admiring her.
However, when two persons are engaged in a conversation, the speaker will only look into the listener’s eyes from time to time to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what the former is speaking. ___14___ If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking as if trying to control you, you will feel awkward. A poor liar usually exposes himself by looking too long at the victim. He wrongly believes that looking straight in the eye is a sign of honest communication. ___15___ Actually, eye contact should be made based on specific relationship and situation.

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文,文章主要介绍了眼神交流的目的和意义,说明了适当的眼神交流的好处,同时应避免长时间盯着对方看。
【11题详解】
上文“so it is often said that eyes can speak.(所以人们常说眼睛会说话)”提到,人们常说眼睛会说话,下文“In a bus you may look at a stranger but not far too long. And if he sensed that you are staring at him, he may feel uncomfortable.(在公共汽车上,你可能会看一个陌生人,但不会看太久)”以实际生活的例子进行说明,空处是段首,应是引出下文描述的经历,B项“你有这样的经历吗?”符合语境,故选B。
【12题详解】
根据上文“If you are stared at for more than necessary, you will look at yourself up and down to see if there is anything wrong with you.(如果别人盯着你看的时间太长了,你就会上下打量自己,看看是否有什么问题)”可知,如果别人盯着你看太长时间,你就会上下打量自己,看看是否有什么问题,G项“如果没什么问题,你会对别人那样盯着你看感到恼火”承接上文,描述自己上下打量自己之后的结果,如果自己没什么问题,你会对别人感到恼火,故选G。
【13题详解】
根据下文“If a man stares at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to look away from her(如果一个男人盯着一个女人超过10秒钟,并且拒绝把目光从她身上移开)”可知,此处是描述盯着异性看的情况,F项“但当凝视异性时,情况就不同了”符合语境,故选F。
【14题详解】
上文“However, when two persons are engaged in a conversation, the speaker will only look into the listener’s eyes from time to time to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what the former is speaking.(然而,当两个人在交谈时,说话者只会时不时地看着听者的眼睛,以确保听者确实注意到前者在说什么)”描述了一种交流方式,下文“If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking as if trying to control you, you will feel awkward.(如果说话的人在说话的时候一直看着你,好像在试图控制你,你会感到尴尬)”描述了一种与上文不同的、会让人尴尬的眼神交流方式,由此推知上文描述的是正常的眼神交流,C项“这就是正常的眼神交流”符合语境,故选C。
【15题详解】
根据上文“He wrongly believes that looking straight in the eye is a sign of honest communication.(他错误地认为直视对方的眼睛是诚实交流的标志)”可知,说谎者错误地认为直视对方的眼睛是诚实交流的标志,事实并非如此,A项“相反,这会暴露他的身份”符合语境,呼应上文“A poor liar usually exposes himself by looking too long at the victim.(一个差劲的说谎者通常会因为盯着对方看太久而暴露自己)”,故选A。

第三节 读后续写(满分25分)
57. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Last Saturday David was taking a walk in the park near his home when he noticed a woman with a boy of about eight years old. When David passed them, he heard the woman yell. “How stupid you are! You’re good at nothing.” David stopped and looked at the little boy. The boy said nothing. He just stood there, looking upset.
David was reminded of his English teacher Mrs Brown in middle school. After he entered a middle school, David lacked self-confidence because he was often made fun of by others. He was often told that he was good at nothing, which David behaved. But one day it all changed.
One day, in an English writing class, Mrs Brown asked them to read a novel. They were asked to write a new chapter of the novel after they finished reading it. A few days later, David handed in his story. He didn’t give it much thought. But the next day, to his surprise, the comment “well done” from Mrs Brown came into view the moment he turned to the page where the story was written. When David read that, he almost burst into tears. He never expected to be praised one day. He suddenly gained some self-confidence.
That day after he returned home, he wrote a short story and gave it to Mrs Brown the next morning. And again he was praised. David became very interested in writing. He often wrote short stories and asked Mrs Brown to read them improve writing skills. One year later, David joined the school newspaper and became an editor of it. He was no longer that boy who lacked self-confidence. He gained his confidence, and was hopeful about his future.
He succeeded in entering a college and kept writing. Several years after graduating from college, he had his first book published. With some more books coming out, he became famous as a writer in his country. And he owed his success to Mrs Brown’s encouragement. Without her encouragement, his life might be very different now.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;

Inspired by his own life story, David decided to do something for that boy.

The mother was ashamed when she heard that.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】范文:
Inspired by his own life story, David decided to do something for that boy. He went to the woman, who immediately recognized him because she had read his books and seen his pictures. David started to chat with her. He told her that what she said to her boy was not appropriate. Then he told her about the encouragement he once got from Mrs. Brown. In the end, he said, “I couldn’t have become a writer if I had believed I was good at nothing.”
The mother was ashamed when she heard that. She realized that she shouldn’t have called her son stupid, which would make him lose confidence in himself. So she said, “Thank you for your advice. I’ll never say such things to him again. Instead, I’ll find out what he’s good at and encourage him.” The woman then left with the boy. Looking at the back of the boy, David felt relieved, hoping his action could make a difference to the boy.

【导语】本文以人物为线索,讲述了作家大卫偶遇一位正在大声责骂自己八岁的儿子愚蠢无用的母亲,想到自己过去的经历,如果不是因为中学的英语老师Mrs. Brown的鼓励和认可,他不会有现在的成就。于是大卫主动以自身经历劝说这位母亲不要否定自己的儿子,要多鼓励他,给他信心,这位母亲也意识到了自己的问题,希望这段小小的经历能给这个男孩带来改变。
【详解】1. 段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“受到自己故事的启发,大卫决定为那个男孩做点什么。”可知,第一段可描写大卫主动以自身经历劝说这位母亲不要否定自己的儿子,要多鼓励他,给他信心。
②由第二段首句“母亲听到这话感到很惭愧”可知,第二段可描写这位母亲思想和态度的转变,从而希望能给男孩带来改变。
