B Bianca Mavrick’s first attempt in the jewellery world was as an enterprising (有创业精神的) 10-year-old, selling seashell earrings at the Cleveland markets. Now the 28-year-old has her own studio in Moorooka, in Brisbane’s south, and her handmade designs enjoy worldwide popularity among fans. “It’s amazing to be selling internationally. When you do a creative business, you’re going to have to work hard and it will take a few years to get off the ground, but it’s really growing fast now,” she says. Bianca opened her online store in 2014. Production happens in her studio, with help from one staff member and sometimes her grandma. “My grandma enjoys sitting with the girls. She acts as a kind of quality controller and helps with packing and putting bar codes (条形码) on things,” Bianca says. Bianca laughs as she recalls looking through her grandmother’s pile of costume jewellery as a child. “She had an amazing collection and I was allowed to have some of the broken pieces and fix them up to sell alongside the shell earrings on my stand,” she says. Mum and Dad opened an account for me and put the profits away. Even then I knew I wanted to work with jewellery. All of my hobbies always related back to my jewellery. I’m always looking for inspiration, whether I’m visiting an art gallery or looking at furniture for my apartment. Next month Bianca will join other talented Queensland artists and designers to show her creations at the MAYO Arts Festival, named after well-known Australian sculptor Daphne Mayo. “It’s really exciting to be a part of it,” she says, “It will enable me to meet my clients, too, which is always great because having an online store I can’t normally get to do that. My clients love the unique nature of my designs, as well as the fact that they are handmade, not mass-produced.” 4. What does Bianca think of her business? A. It had a terrible start. B. It is expanding rapidly. C. It leaves a lot to be desired. D. It aims at foreign clients. 5. What does Bianca’s grandma do in her studio? A. She designs the bar codes. B. She acts as a spokeswoman. C. She monitors product quality. D. She helps with sales promotion. 6. What made Bianca devoted to jewellery? A. The childhood hobbies and talent. B. The family’s influence and support. C. The handsome profits in the industry. D. The inspiration from her surroundings. 7. Why is Bianca excited to attend the festival? A. Her unique designs are likely to become a hit. B. Many of her works will be created on the spot. C. The festival is to be held by a famous sculptor. D. She can communicate with her clients in person. C As China’s cities grow, they are also sinking. An estimated 16 percent of the country’s major cities are losing more than 10 millimeters of height per year and nearly half are losing more than 3 millimeters per year, according to a new study published in the journal Science. “Land subsidence (下沉) is a problem that almost exists everywhere,” said Robert Nicholls, a climate scientist and civil engineer at the University of East Anglia who reviewed the paper, “To my knowledge, this study is the first to measure land subsidence across many urban areas using state-of-the-art radar (雷达) data from satellites. I believe the majority of the adaptation strategies that we have, and the plans to fight climate change, are inaccurate, just because they did not include land subsidence. Land subsidence is an unheeded problem. It hasn’t been studied the way, for example, sea level rise has been studied.” The new study was based on satellite radar measurements of how much the ground surface in 82 major cities, accounting for three-quarters of the urban population, moved up or down between 2015 and 2022. The researchers compared these measurements to data on potential contributing factors. Subsidence in these cities is caused in part by the pure weight of buildings, the study found. Groundwater extraction (开采) underneath the cities also plays a role, as do oil drilling and coal mining. These activities leave empty space underground where soil and rocks can press together or collapse. Being below sea level doesn’t mean a city is automatically destroyed. Much of the Netherlands is below sea level and sinking, but the country has been extensively engineered to prevent flooding in places and to accommodate it in others. Shanghai is already limiting groundwater extraction and is sinking more slowly than other cities. In Japan, groundwater management over the years has proved successful. “It’s difficult to stop subsidence entirely,” Dr. Nicholls said, “You’ve got to live with what’s left. “ 8. What do the figures in paragraph 1 imply? A. Cities grow at an alarming speed. B. Cities face fierce climate change. C. Land subsidence is under control. D. Land subsidence is an urgent issue. 9. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “unheeded” in paragraph 2? A. Ignored. B. Identified. C. Undefined. D. Overestimated. 10 What may contribute to land subsidence in cities according to the passage? A. Energy extraction. B. Overuse of farmland. C. Population expansion. D. Uneven distribution of water. 11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. City planning calls for joint efforts. B. Groundwater is to blame for land sinking. C. Measures can be taken to ease subsidence. D. Flooding prevention deserves further research. D Ponds are a rich source of biodiversity, providing natural environments for many rare and endangered species, including plants, insects, birds and bats. Ponds show far greater variation than rivers and streams. Yet, for a century or so, ponds have been ignored by scientists. Why have we overlooked such a significant part of the natural world? A key reason appears to be the cognitive bias (认知偏见) where we assume that if something is small, it can’t be all that important. Rather than study ponds, biologists in the past typically headed for the largest lake or river they could find. Most of us also devalue ponds because we assume they are human-made habitats and don’t realize that these waters have a deeply ancient origin. Ponds have clearly existed on Earth as long as there has been land and water and the geological record shows they have been a long-lasting presence. Ignoring ponds within science has had a big impact on our ability to protect their wildlife. It has created a world view in which policy-makers can simply ignore the big networks of ponds that make up so much of the global water environment. In Europe, for example, the Water Framework Directive mostly excludes any bodies of water smaller than 50 hectares. Fortunately, views are changing. Last year, the Ramsar Convention, an international agreement, introduced a resolution (决议) on small wetlands, including ponds, giving more recognition to them. And the European Union-funded PONDERFUL project is gathering data on Europe’s ponds. However, if we want to make use of the biodiversity power that ponds offer, there remains much to do. In a world where fresh water faces big challenges, creating and protecting ponds provides a ray of hope: a piece of natural ecological engineering we can easily achieve to help support biodiversity. 12. What can be learned about ponds from paragraph 1? A. They are difficult to research. B. They fail to get due attention. C. They are too small to support wildlife. D. They have greater importance than rivers. 13. What does the cognitive bias assume? A. Ponds are short-lived. B. Rivers are fully-developed. C. Small things are unimportant. D. Natural habitats are unnoticed. 14. Why is the Water Framework Directive mentioned in paragraph 3? A. To solve a problem. B. To present a fact. C. To prove a point. D. To make a comparison. 15. What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A. Exploring ponds has a long way to go. B. Ecological diversity is easy to realize. C. Fresh water supply can meet our needs. D. Building ponds can promote economy. 第二节 （共5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 can a teen set themselves up for success?

Unlike her classmates, who were often keen on the latest technology, Emma had a preference for knitting (编织) . Emma’s love for knitting was deeply influenced by her mother who possessed a skilled and creative touch with needles. Her mother’s passion for knitting and generous spirit of helping others always inspired Emma to follow in her footsteps and take up knitting as a meaningful hobby. Emma was really good at knitting. She liked to make scarves, gloves, hats and mini bags for her friends as well as her relatives. Her hats were created in a variety of styles and colors, each one unique and full of personality. Whether it was a mini bag or a classic scarf, each knitting work was a carefully crafted masterpiece and a unique gift full of love and warmth. With beauty and practicality, Emma’s creations never failed to impress. One freezing morning in the peak of winter, the city had just been blanketed by a snowstorm that had left many, particularly the homeless, in desperate situation. As Emma made her way to school, she noticed a shaking figure under the bridge near her school. It was a homeless man she often saw on her route, but today he looked particularly miserable (可怜的) . His face was half-hidden under a piece of worn cloth that hardly served as protection against the cold. Touched by the sight, Emma decided to present her scarf to the homeless man. She approached, handing the scarf to him. “For me?” the man asked, his eyes widened with surprise. “Yes! I thought it might help with the cold,” Emma said, her breath visible in the cold air. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The man wrapped the scarfaround his neck, instantly feeling a bit warmer. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Led by Emma, Knits for Hope Club was started in her school. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1-5 BCBBC 6-10 CACAB 11-15ABCAB 16-20ACACC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 辽宁省重点高中沈阳市郊联体 2024—2025学年度上学期期中考试高二年级试题 英 语 考试时间：120分钟 试卷总分：150分 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2. 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。 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.

Now the 28-year-old has her own studio in Moorooka, in Brisbane’s south, and her handmade designs enjoy worldwide popularity among fans. “It’s amazing to be selling internationally. When you do a creative business, you’re going to have to work hard and it will take a few years to get off the ground, but it’s really growing fast now,” she says. Bianca opened her online store in 2014. Production happens in her studio, with help from one staff member and sometimes her grandma. “My grandma enjoys sitting with the girls. She acts as a kind of quality controller and helps with packing and putting bar codes (条形码) on things,” Bianca says. Bianca laughs as she recalls looking through her grandmother’s pile of costume jewellery as a child. “She had an amazing collection and I was allowed to have some of the broken pieces and fix them up to sell alongside the shell earrings on my stand,” she says. Mum and Dad opened an account for me and put the profits away. Even then I knew I wanted to work with jewellery. All of my hobbies always related back to my jewellery. I’m always looking for inspiration, whether I’m visiting an art gallery or looking at furniture for my apartment. Next month Bianca will join other talented Queensland artists and designers to show her creations at the MAYO Arts Festival, named after well-known Australian sculptor Daphne Mayo. “It’s really exciting to be a part of it,” she says, “It will enable me to meet my clients, too, which is always great because having an online store I can’t normally get to do that. My clients love the unique nature of my designs, as well as the fact that they are handmade, not mass-produced.” 4. What does Bianca think of her business? A. It had a terrible start. B. It is expanding rapidly. C. It leaves a lot to be desired. D. It aims at foreign clients. 5. What does Bianca’s grandma do in her studio? A. She designs the bar codes. B. She acts as a spokeswoman. C. She monitors product quality. D. She helps with sales promotion. 6. What made Bianca devoted to jewellery? A. The childhood hobbies and talent. B. The family’s influence and support. C. The handsome profits in the industry. D. The inspiration from her surroundings. 7. Why is Bianca excited to attend the festival? A. Her unique designs are likely to become a hit. B. Many of her works will be created on the spot. C. The festival is to be held by a famous sculptor. D. She can communicate with her clients in person. 【答案】4 B 5. C 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了珠宝设计师Bianca Mavrick的成长和创业经历。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“ When you do a creative business, you’re going to have to work hard and it will take a few years to get off the ground, but it’s really growing fast now,(当你做创意生意时，你必须努力工作，需要几年的时间才能起步，但它现在发展得很快，)”可知，Bianca认为她的业务正在迅速扩张。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“My grandma enjoys sitting with the girls. She acts as a kind of quality controller and helps with packing and putting bar codes (条形码) on things,(我奶奶喜欢和女孩们坐在一起。她是一名质量控制人员，帮助包装和在物品上粘贴条形码，)”可知，Bianca的祖母在她的工作室里担任一种质量控制员的角色，帮助打包和贴条形码，因此她主要负责监控产品质量。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Bianca laughs as she recalls looking through her grandmother’s pile of costume jewelry as a child.(Bianca回忆起小时候翻看祖母成堆的人造珠宝时笑了起来。)”以及本段中“Mum and Dad opened an account for me and put the profits away. Even then I knew I wanted to work with jewellery. All of my hobbies always related back to my jewellery.(爸爸妈妈给我开了一个账户，把赚到的钱存起来。即使在那时，我也知道我想从事珠宝行业。我所有的爱好都和我的珠宝有关。)”可知，Bianca对珠宝行业的热爱是既受到了家人的影响也得到了家人的支持。故选B。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“It will enable me to meet my clients, too, which is always great because having an online store I can’t normally get to do that. My clients love the unique nature of my designs, as well as the fact that they are handmade, not mass-produced.(它也能让我见到我的客户，这总是很棒的，因为有一个网上商店，我通常无法做到这一点。我的客户喜欢我设计的独特性，以及它们是手工制作的，而不是大规模生产的事实。)”可知，Bianca经营网上商店，通常没有机会和客户面对面交流，因此能与顾客面对面交流是令她激动的事情。故选D。 C As China’s cities grow, they are also sinking. An estimated 16 percent of the country’s major cities are losing more than 10 millimeters of height per year and nearly half are losing more than 3 millimeters per year, according to a new study published in the journal Science. “Land subsidence (下沉) is a problem that almost exists everywhere,” said Robert Nicholls, a climate scientist and civil engineer at the University of East Anglia who reviewed the paper, “To my knowledge, this study is the first to measure land subsidence across many urban areas using state-of-the-art radar (雷达) data from satellites. I believe the majority of the adaptation strategies that we have, and the plans to fight climate change, are inaccurate, just because they did not include land subsidence. Land subsidence is an unheeded problem. It hasn’t been studied the way, for example, sea level rise has been studied.” The new study was based on satellite radar measurements of how much the ground surface in 82 major cities accounting for three-quarters of the urban population, moved up or down between 2015 and 2022. The researchers compared these measurements to data on potential contributing factors. Subsidence in these cities is caused in part by the pure weight of buildings, the study found. Groundwater extraction (开采) underneath the cities also plays a role, as do oil drilling and coal mining. These activities leave empty space underground where soil and rocks can press together or collapse. Being below sea level doesn’t mean a city is automatically destroyed. Much of the Netherlands is below sea level and sinking, but the country has been extensively engineered to prevent flooding in places and to accommodate it in others. Shanghai is already limiting groundwater extraction and is sinking more slowly than other cities. In Japan, groundwater management over the years has proved successful. “It’s difficult to stop subsidence entirely,” Dr. Nicholls said, “You’ve got to live with what’s left. “ 8. What do the figures in paragraph 1 imply? A. Cities grow at an alarming speed. B. Cities face fierce climate change. C. Land subsidence is under control. D. Land subsidence is an urgent issue. 9. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “unheeded” in paragraph 2? A. Ignored. B. Identified. C. Undefined. D. Overestimated. 10. What may contribute to land subsidence in cities according to the passage? A. Energy extraction. B. Overuse of farmland. C. Population expansion. D. Uneven distribution of water. 11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. City planning calls for joint efforts. B. Groundwater is to blame for land sinking. C. Measures can be taken to ease subsidence. D. Flooding prevention deserves further research. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了地面下沉问题的背景、原因和一些应对措施。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“An estimated 16 percent of the country’s major cities are losing more than 10 millimeters of height per year and nearly half are losing more than 3 millimeters per year, according to a new study published in the journal Science. (根据《科学》杂志发表的一项新研究，估计该国16%的主要城市每年高度下降超过10毫米，近一半的城市每年下降超过3毫米。)”可知，第一段的数字意味着地面沉降问题严重，是一个亟需解决的问题。故选D。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“I believe the majority of the adaptation strategies that we have, and the plans to fight climate change, are inaccurate, just because they did not include land subsidence. Land subsidence is an unheeded problem. It hasn’t been studied the way, for example, sea level rise has been studied.” (我认为，我们现有的大多数适应策略和应对气候变化的计划都是不准确的，因为它们没有包括地面沉降。地面沉降是一个unheeded问题。它还没有被研究过，例如，海平面上升已经被研究过了。”)”可知，地面沉降问题还没有像是海平面上升那样被研究过，由此可推知，地面沉降问题是未被注意的，划线单词表示“未被注意的”，与Ignored意义相近。故选A。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Subsidence in these cities is caused in part by the pure weight of buildings, the study found. Groundwater extraction (开采) underneath the cities also plays a role, as do oil drilling and coal mining. (研究发现，这些城市的沉降部分是由建筑物的纯粹重量造成的。城市地下的地下水开采也发挥了作用，石油钻探和煤炭开采也是如此。)”可知，建筑物的重量、城市地下水开采以及能源开采是造成地面下沉的原因。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Being below sea level doesn’t mean a city is automatically destroyed. Much of the Netherlands is below sea level and sinking, but the country has been extensively engineered to prevent flooding in places and to accommodate it in others. Shanghai is already limiting groundwater extraction and is sinking more slowly than other cities. In Japan, groundwater management over the years has proved successful. (低于海平面并不意味着一座城市会自动被摧毁。荷兰的大部分地区都在海平面以下，正在下沉，但该国已经进行了广泛的工程设计，以防止某些地方发生洪水，并在其他地方适应洪水。上海已经在限制地下水开采，而且下沉速度比其他城市慢。在日本，多年来的地下水管理已被证明是成功的。)”可推知，采取有效措施后，地面沉降问题可以被缓解，即可以采取措施缓解地面沉降。故选C。 D Ponds are a rich source of biodiversity, providing natural environments for many rare and endangered species, including plants, insects, birds and bats. Ponds show far greater variation than rivers and streams. Yet, for a century or so, ponds have been ignored by scientists. Why have we overlooked such a significant part of the natural world? A key reason appears to be the cognitive bias (认知偏见) where we assume that if something is small, it can’t be all that important. Rather than study ponds, biologists in the past typically headed for the largest lake or river they could find. Most of us also devalue ponds because we assume they are human-made habitats and don’t realize that these waters have a deeply ancient origin. Ponds have clearly existed on Earth as long as there has been land and water and the geological record shows they have been a long-lasting presence. Ignoring ponds within science has had a big impact on our ability to protect their wildlife. It has created a world view in which policy-makers can simply ignore the big networks of ponds that make up so much of the global water environment. In Europe, for example, the Water Framework Directive mostly excludes any bodies of water smaller than 50 hectares. Fortunately, views are changing. Last year, the Ramsar Convention, an international agreement, introduced a resolution (决议) on small wetlands, including ponds, giving more recognition to them. And the European Union-funded PONDERFUL project is gathering data on Europe’s ponds. However, if we want to make use of the biodiversity power that ponds offer, there remains much to do. In a world where fresh water faces big challenges, creating and protecting ponds provides a ray of hope: a piece of natural ecological engineering we can easily achieve to help support biodiversity. 12. What can be learned about ponds from paragraph 1? A. They are difficult to research. B. They fail to get due attention. C. They are too small to support wildlife. D. They have greater importance than rivers. 13. What does the cognitive bias assume? A. Ponds are short-lived. B. Rivers are fully-developed. C. Small things are unimportant. D. Natural habitats are unnoticed. 14. Why is the Water Framework Directive mentioned in paragraph 3? A. To solve a problem. B. To present a fact. C. To prove a point. D. To make a comparison. 15. What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A. Exploring ponds has a long way to go. B. Ecological diversity is easy to realize. C. Fresh water supply can meet our needs. D. Building ponds can promote economy. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了池塘是生物多样性的重要来源，为许多稀有和濒危的物种提供了自然环境，但是，长久以来，池塘一直被忽视。因此，人们需要改变对池塘的认知偏见，对池塘投入研究，才能发挥池塘的生物多样性力量。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段末尾句内容“Yet, for a century or so, ponds have been ignored by scientists.(然而，大约一个世纪以来，池塘一直被科学家们所忽视。)”可知，大约一个世纪以来，池塘一直都被科学家们所忽视，即，它们没有得到应有的重视。故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段内容“A key reason appears to be the cognitive bias where we assume that if something is small, it can’t be all that important.(一个关键原因似乎是认知偏见，我们认为如果某物很小，就不可能那么重要。)”可知，认知偏见认为“小的事物不重要”。故选C项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。分析前后文语境可知，该内容的前一句“It has created a world view in which policy-makers can simply ignore the big networks of ponds that make up so much of the global water environment.(它创造了一种世界观，在这种世界观中，政策制定者可以简单地忽略构成全球水环境很大一部分的大型池塘网络。)”提出一个论点“政策制定者可以简单地忽略构成全球水环境很大一部分的大型池塘网络”，然后用“In Europe, for example, the Water Framework Directive mostly excludes any bodies of water smaller than 50 hectares.(例如，在欧洲，《水框架指令》大多排除了任何小于50公顷的水体。)”这一政府官方文件进行了举例证明。由此可推知，提及《水框架指令》是为了证明论点。故选C项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章末尾段落内容“However, if we want to make use of the biodiversity power that ponds offer, there remains much to do.(然而，如果我们想要利用池塘提供的生物多样性力量，还有很多事情要做。)”可知，要想利用池塘的生物多样性力量，还需要投入大量的研究。由此可推知，作者暗示“探索池塘还有很长的路要走。”故选A项。 第二节 （共5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 can a teen set themselves up for success?

Unlike her classmates, who were often keen on the latest technology, Emma had a preference for knitting (编织) . Emma’s love for knitting was deeply influenced by her mother, who possessed a skilled and creative touch with needles. Her mother’s passion for knitting and generous spirit of helping others always inspired Emma to follow in her footsteps and take up knitting as a meaningful hobby. Emma was really good at knitting. She liked to make scarves, gloves, hats and mini bags for her friends as well as her relatives. Her hats were created in a variety of styles and colors, each one unique and full of personality. Whether it was a mini bag or a classic scarf, each knitting work was a carefully crafted masterpiece and a unique gift full of love and warmth. With beauty and practicality, Emma’s creations never failed to impress. One freezing morning in the peak of winter, the city had just been blanketed by a snowstorm that had left many, particularly the homeless, in desperate situation. As Emma made her way to school, she noticed a shaking figure under the bridge near her school. It was a homeless man she often saw on her route, but today he looked particularly miserable (可怜的) . His face was half-hidden under a piece of worn cloth that hardly served as protection against the cold. Touched by the sight, Emma decided to present her scarf to the homeless man. She approached, handing the scarf to him. “For me?” the man asked, his eyes widened with surprise. “Yes! I thought it might help with the cold,” Emma said, her breath visible in the cold air. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The man wrapped the scarfaround his neck, instantly feeling a bit warmer. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Led by Emma, Knits for Hope Club was started in her school. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 The man wrapped the scarf around his neck, instantly feeling a bit warmer. “Thank you. You are an angel, “ he murmured, a glimmer of smile coming to his dry lips. He grabbed the scarf tightly, his eyes shining with happy tears. In that moment, Emma realized what she presented was not just a scarf but also a sign of hope. Inspired, she determined to bring that spark of hope to more people. An idea suddenly popped into her head that she could set up a knitting club to bring more warmth to those in need. Then Emma waved him goodbye and hurried to school, her heart light and warm. Led by Emma, Knits for Hope Club was started in her school. Her classmates expressed their willingness to do their part. With the passage of time, the club grew in numbers and enthusiasm. By the end of winter, Knits for Hope had distributed more than two hundred hand-knitted items, warming numerous bodies and hearts. Through their needles, they had knitted a blanket of community, compassion, and warmth that enveloped everyone. Never did Emma realize the impact of her small gesture. It wasn’t about the scarves or hats; it was about weaving kindness into the fabric of society, showing that even the smallest acts can create the warmest changes. 【解析】 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述了一个名叫Emma的十六岁女孩， 受到母亲的影响对编织情有独钟。她以精湛的技艺制作各种编织品，如围巾、手套、帽子和小包，送给她的朋友。在一个 寒冷冬天的早晨，Emma看到一位无家可归的男子在桥下冻得发抖，决定将自己的围巾送给他。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①根据首句内容“那人把围巾包在脖子上，立刻感觉暖和了一点。”可知，下文可以通过语言、 动作和心理描写的方式描述男士对Emma的感激之情，然后写Emma决定通过成立俱乐部给更多的人送去温暖的想法，最后描写Emma挥手告别匆匆赶往学校的心情。为了和第二段首句呼应，第一段最后必须提到Emma想要设立俱乐部的想法。 ②根据首句“在艾玛的带领下，希望编织社在她的学校成立了”可知，下文主要写编织社团积极工作温暖了更多的人以及Emma的感悟：即使是最不起眼的行为也能产生最温暖的变化。 2.续写线索：戴围巾——男士对Emma的感激——给更多的人送去温暖——成立希望编织社——分发手工编织品——感触 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①建立：set up/found/establish ②分发：distribute/hand out/deliver ③意识到：realize/understand 情绪类 ①感谢：thank/ show gratitude/ be grateful ②快乐：happy /delighted 【点睛】[高分句型1]In that moment, Emma realized what she presented was not just a scarf but also a sign of hope.
