B Gu Ailing, the United States-born Olympic skiing gold medalist, who is also known as Eileen Gu, said that she competed for China to inspire the nation’s young girls to get interested in the sport. The freestyle skier won three medals at the Beijing 2022 Winter Games in February. She shared her thoughts on Tuesday at an event in New York, where she was among those honored as being among Time magazine’s 100 most influential people of 2022, and she discussed her motivation and the possible roles she may play after the Olympics. Asked whether she had second thoughts about her decision to represent China in the Olympics, considering the current tension between the US and China, Gu said not at all. “No, I don’t have any regrets,” she said, because every day on her social media she receives messages from hundreds of young girls worldwide who call her their inspiration. “Sports are a shared experience transcending gender, age, race, background and culture,” Gu said, adding that they can bring about cultural exchanges, communication and uplift one another, generating a cycle of positivity. Gu also announced that she would be the ambassador (大使) for the US Winter Olympic Games bid in Salt Lake City in 2030. Gu said, “This is a beautiful example of globalism and the capacity that we can use skiing, we can use sports, we can use the winter sports to connect people.” 4. Why did Eileen Gu compete for China? A. To win gold medals in the Winter Olympics. B To encourage China’s young girls to love skiing. C. To increase cultural exchanges and communication. D. To be the ambassador for the US Winter Olympic Games. 5. What do we know about Gu Ailing? A. She was a China-born Olympic skiing gold medalist. B. She won four medals at the Beijing 2022 winter games. C. She didn’t regret having represented China in the Olympics. D. She was honored as one of the 100 most influential people of 2021. 6.

A celebrity interview. C. A health report. D. A personal diary. C On Saturday, August 24, 1918, it was raining cats and dogs and thundering over a city called Sunderland on the northeast coast of England. The storm lasted for only about ten minutes. People were surprised to see that it was not just rainwater falling from the sky. There were fish falling down, too! People came out to find out what was happening. They could not believe their own eyes. There were thousands of fish—sand eels (沙鳗)—lying on the ground. They were about seven centimeters long, and all were frozen dead. Sand eels swim together in large groups, often in sandy water, and are often found in large numbers in the North Sea, which reaches out to the east of Sunderland. How was it possible for these sand eels to fall from the sky and land on Sunderland? Scientists believed the heavy thunderstorm that afternoon may have caused a waterspout (水龙卷) Waterspout s can be formed when strong winds move quickly in a circle over water. They are so powerful that anything less than one meter in length can be taken into them and forced into the clouds. The clouds carry whatever has been taken into them for long distances —sometimes over 150 kilometers. It’s very cold up there and everything soon freezes. For hundreds of years there have been reports of small animals being taken into the sky through waterspouts. In 2009, dead tadpoles rained down on the city of Nanao in Japan. In 2012, fifty kilos of prawns fell from the sky over Sri Lanka. In 2017, fish fell on the coastal city of Tampico in Mexico. It must be a very strange experience to see fish raining down on you. It would probably hurt if one fell on your head! With climate change and many reports of terrible storms, will the time ever come when it may really begin to rain cats and dogs? 8. What do we know about the sand eels that landed on Sunderland? A. They were few in number. B. They came in different sizes. C. They were still alive when landing. D. They probably came from the North Sea. 9. What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. Clouds. B. Waterspouts. C. Sand eels. D. Thunderstorms. 10. Why does the author mention the fall of tadpoles in Japan? A. To stress the environment is not pleasant in Japan. B. To introduce waterspouts can reach as far as Japan. C. To show that raining sea animals is not new in history. D. To explain different animals can fall in different countries. 11. What is the author really worried about in the last paragraph? A. Health. B. Environment. C. Wild animals. D. Travel safety. D Imagine a cat that does not need someone to clean up after it keeps an older person company and helps them remember to take their medicine. That is the shared dream of the toy maker Hasbro and scientists at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. The researchers received a $3-million-dollar award from the National Science Foundation for a special project. They want to find ways to add artificial intelligence or AI, to Hasbro’s “Joy for All” robotic cat. The cat has already been for sale for two years. Though priced at over 1,000 dollars, it sold quite well. It was meant to act as a “companion” (陪伴) for older people. Now the project is aimed at developing additional abilities for the cat. Researchers are working to decide which activities older adults may need the most. They hope to make the cat perform a small number of activities very well. Such activities include finding lost objects and reminding the older people to take medicine or visit their doctor. They also want to keep the cost down to just a few hundred dollars. It is an idea that is attractive to Jeanne Elliott. Her 93-year-old mother Mary Derr lives with her in South Kingstown. Derr has dementia (痴呆). The Joy for All cat that Elliot bought this year has become a true companion for Derr. The cat stays with Derr and keeps her relaxed while Elliett is at work. Elliot said a robotic cat that helps her mother to remember to take her medicine and be careful when she walks would be greater. The researchers are dying to learn how the improved cats will complete helpful activities and how they will communicate. They say that they do not want a talking cat, however. Instead they are trying to design a cat that can move its head in a special way to successfully communicate its message. In the end, they hope to create an exchange between the human and the cat in which the human feels the cat needs them. By doing so, the researchers hope they can even help prevent feelings of loneliness and sadness among elderly people. 12. What’s the purpose of the project? A. To reduce the pain of the elderly. B. To invent a robotic cat for the elderly. C. To increase the sales of a medicine. D. To help make the robotic cat smarter. 13. What can we know about the cat? A. It will be on sale in two years. B. It may be cheaper in the future. C. Its abilities will be made simpler for the elderly. D. It can tell the activities older adults need the most. 14. What does the example in Paragraph 3 show? A. The cat gives much help to the elderly. B. The cat can satisfy most patients’ need. C. The cat works well to talk with the patient. D. The cat can make the dementia patient happy. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. Updating AI: The Future of Robotics B. Improving Companionship: The Joy for All Project C. Affordable Technology: Bringing AI to Every Home D. Silent Communication: The Language of Robotic Cats 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 to Keep Building Your Vocabulary No educative process is ever the end.

But my story is of a storm that gave me more than I’d thought to ask for. The tornado(龙卷风)blew through on a Sunday. We were visiting grandparents in Raleigh then, unaware that seventy miles away the big tree in our front yard was tearing through our roof and destroying the kitchen. When we returned, we saw Rosica’s father and brothers in our yard, gathering debris(碎片)and using a chain saw to cut the thickest branches of the fallen tree, though we barely knew them then. They were covered in sweat and dirt. My mom didn’t seem to notice how happy they were to help us because the first thing she said was “Oh, you don’t need to be doing all that work!” Mr. Flores laughed.“Claro! Of course, we don’t. But more importantly, you cannot sleep in that house tonight. Come and speak to my wife. She’ll help you figure out what to do.” My mom doesn’t usually let people tell her what to do, but she sighed(叹气)deeply as she took in the sight of our home in the failing light, reached for my hand, and followed our neighbor to their house. The Flores family lived across the street. Their home was the same size as ours but housed three generations. Rosica was my age. I knew her name and face, but since she was new to our school, and had a different teacher than I did, we had never spoken. It was she who answered the door.“Mama is changing the sheets on the bed for you, and there’s some lemon cheesecake on the table.” “Please don’t trouble yourself. I think I’d call a hotel and see about a room,” my mom said, more uneasy than usual. Mrs. Flores came down the stairs and smiled at us warmly, “Y our room is ready. I know it’s more encouraged to give than receive, but allow yourself to receive a place to stay, and allow us the chance to give you something you need!” 注意: 1.续写词数应为150左右: 2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: Our two-week stay at Flores’s home started. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Following our stay in their home, a beautiful tradition began. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 赣州三中2024-2025学年度第一学期期中考试 高一英语试卷 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.

The storm lasted for only about ten minutes. People were surprised to see that it was not just rainwater falling from the sky. There were fish falling down, too! People came out to find out what was happening. They could not believe their own eyes. There were thousands of fish—sand eels (沙鳗)—lying on the ground. They were about seven centimeters long, and all were frozen dead. Sand eels swim together in large groups, often in sandy water, and are often found in large numbers in the North Sea, which reaches out to the east of Sunderland. How was it possible for these sand eels to fall from the sky and land on Sunderland? Scientists believed the heavy thunderstorm that afternoon may have caused a waterspout (水龙卷). Waterspout s can be formed when strong winds move quickly in a circle over water. They are so powerful that anything less than one meter in length can be taken into them and forced into the clouds. The clouds carry whatever has been taken into them for long distances —sometimes over 150 kilometers. It’s very cold up there and everything soon freezes. For hundreds of years there have been reports of small animals being taken into the sky through waterspouts. In 2009, dead tadpoles rained down on the city of Nanao in Japan. In 2012, fifty kilos of prawns fell from the sky over Sri Lanka. In 2017, fish fell on the coastal city of Tampico in Mexico. It must be a very strange experience to see fish raining down on you. It would probably hurt if one fell on your head! With climate change and many reports of terrible storms, will the time ever come when it may really begin to rain cats and dogs? 8. What do we know about the sand eels that landed on Sunderland? A. They were few in number. B. They came in different sizes. C. They were still alive when landing. D. They probably came from the North Sea. 9. What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. Clouds. B. Waterspouts. C. Sand eels. D. Thunderstorms. 10. Why does the author mention the fall of tadpoles in Japan? A. To stress the environment is not pleasant in Japan. B. To introduce waterspouts can reach as far as Japan. C. To show that raining sea animals is not new in history. D. To explain different animals can fall in different countries. 11. What is the author really worried about in the last paragraph? A. Health. B. Environment. C. Wild animals. D. Travel safety. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一说明文。主要讲述了海洋里的动物由于水龙卷被卷入空中，然后落到其他的地方，并介绍了水龙卷形成的原因。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Sand eels swim together in large groups, often in sandy water, and are often found in large numbers in the North Sea, which reaches out to the east of Sunderland. (沙鳗成群结队地游动，经常在含沙的水中，在桑德兰东部的北海经常发现大量的沙鳗。)”可知，在桑德兰东部的北海经常发现大量的沙鳗，由此可知，那些出现在桑德兰市的沙鳗最可能来自与该市东部相连的北海。故选D项。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Scientists believed the heavy thunderstorm that afternoon may have caused a waterspout (水龙卷). Waterspouts can be formed when strong winds move quickly in a circle over water. (科学家认为，当天下午的强雷暴可能导致了水龙卷。当强风在水面上快速旋转时，就会形成水龙卷。)”可知，此处讲述了水龙卷形成的原因，结合划线词所在句“They are so powerful that anything less than one meter in length can be taken into…and forced into the clouds. (它们是如此强大，以至于任何不到一米长的东西都可以被吸进……，并被强行进入云层。)”可知，此处的they应指的是上文中的提到的名词复数“Waterspouts”，结合语境可知，水龙卷的威力很大，沙鳗很可能被吸进水龙卷里，并被卷进云层，由此可知，划线词 them与其所在句中的They都指代waterspouts (水龙卷)。故选 B项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“For hundreds of years there have been reports of small animals being taken into the sky through waterspouts. (数百年来，一直有关于小动物通过水龙卷被带向天空的报道。)”可知，数百年来有很多关于水龙卷把小动物带向天空的报道，此应为本段的主题句，结合下文中的“In 2009, dead tadpoles rained down on the city of Nanao in Japan. (2009年，死蝌蚪如雨点般落在日本南尾市。)”可知，此处列举了发生在2009年发生在日本南尾市死蝌蚪从天而降的事件，由此可知，此处讲述了历史上有很多类似于前文提到的下雨带来动物的报道，说明这在历史上并不新鲜。故选C项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据尾段中的“It would probably hurt if one fell on your head! With climate (气候) change and many reports of terrible storms, will the time ever come when it may really begin to rain cats and dogs?(如果有一颗落在你头上，可能会很疼！随着气候的变化和许多可怕风暴的报道，真的会有大雨倾盆的时候吗？)”可知，此处作者运用“terrible”来说明风暴是可怕的，而这样的报道逐渐增多，并且使用疑问的形式来表达自己对天气变化的担忧，由此可知，此处表达了作者对目前环境的担忧。故选B项。 D Imagine a cat that does not need someone to clean up after it keeps an older person company and helps them remember to take their medicine. That is the shared dream of the toy maker Hasbro and scientists at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. The researchers received a $3-million-dollar award from the National Science Foundation for a special project. They want to find ways to add artificial intelligence or AI, to Hasbro’s “Joy for All” robotic cat. The cat has already been for sale for two years. Though priced at over 1,000 dollars, it sold quite well. It was meant to act as a “companion” (陪伴) for older people. Now the project is aimed at developing additional abilities for the cat. Researchers are working to decide which activities older adults may need the most. They hope to make the cat perform a small number of activities very well. Such activities include finding lost objects and reminding the older people to take medicine or visit their doctor. They also want to keep the cost down to just a few hundred dollars. It is an idea that is attractive to Jeanne Elliott. Her 93-year-old mother Mary Derr lives with her in South Kingstown. Derr has dementia (痴呆). The Joy for All cat that Elliot bought this year has become a true companion for Derr. The cat stays with Derr and keeps her relaxed while Elliett is at work. Elliot said a robotic cat that helps her mother to remember to take her medicine and be careful when she walks would be greater. The researchers are dying to learn how the improved cats will complete helpful activities and how they will communicate. They say that they do not want a talking cat, however. Instead they are trying to design a cat that can move its head in a special way to successfully communicate its message. In the end, they hope to create an exchange between the human and the cat in which the human feels the cat needs them. By doing so, the researchers hope they can even help prevent feelings of loneliness and sadness among elderly people. 12. What’s the purpose of the project? A. To reduce the pain of the elderly. B. To invent a robotic cat for the elderly. C. To increase the sales of a medicine. D. To help make the robotic cat smarter. 13. What can we know about the cat? A. It will be on sale in two years. B. It may be cheaper in the future. C. Its abilities will be made simpler for the elderly. D. It can tell the activities older adults need the most. 14. What does the example in Paragraph 3 show? A. The cat gives much help to the elderly. B. The cat can satisfy most patients’ need. C. The cat works well to talk with the patient. D. The cat can make the dementia patient happy. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. Updating AI: The Future of Robotics B. Improving Companionship: The Joy for All Project C. Affordable Technology: Bringing AI to Every Home D. Silent Communication: The Language of Robotic Cats 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了玩具制造商Hasbro和科学家们合作，希望通过添加人工智能技术改进Joy for All机器猫，使其成为老年人更好的伴侣，帮助他们进行日常活动，以减少老年人的孤独感和悲伤。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Now the project is aimed at developing additional abilities for the cat. Researchers are working to decide which activities older adults may need the most. They hope to make the cat perform a small number of activities very well. Such activities include finding lost objects and reminding the older people to take medicine or visit their doctor. (现在，该项目旨在为这只猫开发额外的能力。研究人员正在努力确定老年人最需要哪些活动。他们希望让猫很好地完成少量的活动。这些活动包括寻找失物，提醒老年人吃药或去看医生)”可知，该项目希望让机器猫具备额外的能力，更好地帮助老人。由此可知，该项目旨在让机器猫更聪明。故选D项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“They also want to keep the cost down to just a few hundred dollars. (他们还想把成本降低到几百美元)”可知，研究人员在努力降低机器猫的成本。由此可知，它将来可能会更便宜。故选B项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Derr has dementia (痴呆). The Joy for All cat that Elliot bought this year has become a true companion for Derr. The cat stays with Derr and keeps her relaxed while Elliett is at work. (Derr患有痴呆症。Elliot今年买的Joy for All猫已经成为Derr的真正伴侣。这只猫和Derr呆在一起，在Elliot工作的时候让她保持放松)”可推知，这里的例子表明机器猫给了老人很多帮助。故选A项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“Imagine a cat that does not need someone to clean up after it keeps an older person company and helps them remember to take their medicine. (想象一下，一只猫在陪伴老人并帮助他们记住吃药后，不需要有人来打扫卫生)”和“They want to find ways to add artificial intelligence or AI, to Hasbro’s “Joy for All” robotic cat. (他们希望找到将人工智能或AI添加到Hasbro的Joy for All机器猫的方法)”可知，文章主要介绍了一个项目希望改进Joy for All机器猫，使其成为老年人更好的伴侣，帮助他们进行日常活动。因此，B项“改善陪伴：Joy for All项目”契合文章主旨，适合作为文章标题。故选B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 to Keep Building Your Vocabulary No educative process is ever the end. It is always the beginning of more education and more learning. ___16___ The following are the ways that can help to keep your vocabulary growing and growing. Read more. As an adult, you will find most of the sources of your supply of new words in books and magazines. If your aim is to have a superior vocabulary, you will have to make the time to read at least one book and several magazines every week. Not just this week and next week — but every week. ___17___ Guess the meaning of a new word in the context (语境). When you meet with an unfamiliar word, do not skip over it impatiently. ___18___ Then work out its possible meaning in the context of the sentence. Whether you come to the right conclusion or not will make a difference because you are, in this process, becoming more clearly aware of the word. As a result, you will, suddenly notice that this very word pops up unexpectedly again and again in all your reading. And of course after you’ve seen it a few times, you will know fairly well not only what it means but the many ways it can be used. ___19___ Think of the areas that may possibly be unknown to you — psychology, science, art, music or whatever. Then explore them by reading books in the fields. In every field, there are books written for average, untrained readers that will give you both a good knowledge and at the same time add dramatically to your vocabulary. Set yourself a goal. If you do nothing about your vocabulary, you will learn, at most, twenty-five to fifty words in a year. ___20___ This may sound ambitious (雄心勃勃的) — but you will discover vocabulary snowball as soon as you start actively looking for new words. A. Get prepared in advance. B. Open you mind to new fields. C. And so it is with vocabulary building. D. You must be willing to learn new words. E. I have never seen a single person with a rich vocabulary who is not a book addict. F. Instead, stop for a moment and read it aloud to get used to its sound and appearance. G. However, with a clear goal, you can learn several thousand in the same period of time. 【答案】16. C 17. E 18. F 19. B 20. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一些保持词汇量不断增长的方法。 【16题详解】 前文“No educative process is ever the end. It is always the beginning of more education and more learning. (任何教育过程都不是终点。它总是更多教育和更多学习的开始)”指出教育是一个持续不断的过程，后文“The following are the ways that can help to keep your vocabulary growing and growing. (以下是可以帮助你保持词汇量不断增长的方法)”表明文章接下来介绍增长词汇量的方法，空处应该是从教育过渡到词汇积累。C项“And so it is with vocabulary building. (词汇积累也是如此)”符合语境，指出词汇积累也是一个持续的过程，承前启后，其中的vocabulary在后文有同词复现。故选C。 【17题详解】 前文“If your aim is to have a superior vocabulary, you will have to make the time to read at least one book and several magazines every week. Not just this week and next week — but every week. (如果你的目标是拥有更丰富的词汇量，你必须每周至少抽出时间读一本书和几本杂志。不只是这周和下周，而是每一周)”建议要坚持日常大量阅读，空处应该是解释其原因。E项“I have never seen a single person with a rich vocabulary who is not a book addict. (我从来没有见过一个词汇量丰富的人不是一个书迷)”符合语境，表明痴迷于阅读有助于增长词汇量，承接前文。故选E。 【18题详解】 前文“When you meet with an unfamiliar word, do not skip over it impatiently. (当你遇到不熟悉的单词时，不要不耐烦地跳过它)”建议不要跳过不熟悉的单词，后文“Then work out its possible meaning in the context of the sentence. (然后找出它在句子语境中可能的意思)”指出对不熟悉的单词的正确做法的第二步，空处应该是正确做法的第一步。F项“Instead, stop for a moment and read it aloud to get used to its sound and appearance. (相反，停下来，大声读出来，习惯它的读音和拼写)”符合语境，表明首先应通过朗读来熟悉该单词，承前启后，其中的it指代前文的an unfamiliar word。故选F。 【19题详解】 空处位于段首，是段落主旨句，需统领段落内容，且需和其他段首句一样使用祈使句的形式，后文“Think of the areas that may possibly be unknown to you — psychology, science, art, music or whatever. Then explore them by reading books in the fields. (想想你可能不知道的领域——心理学、科学、艺术、音乐或其他什么。然后通过阅读这些领域的书籍来探索它们)”主要建议阅读未知领域的书籍，空处应该是建议探索未知领域。B项“Open you mind to new fields. (向新领域敞开心扉)”符合语境，契合后文内容，其中的new和后文的unknown呼应。故选B。 20题详解】 前文“If you do nothing about your vocabulary, you will learn, at most, twenty-five to fifty words in a year. (如果你对你的词汇量什么都不做，你一年最多只能学会25到50个单词)”提到缺少目标的情况下，词汇量增长非常有限，后文“This may sound ambitious (雄心勃勃的) — but you will discover vocabulary snowball as soon as you start actively looking for new words. (这听起来可能有点野心勃勃——但一旦你开始积极寻找新单词，你就会发现词汇量像滚雪球一样变大)”具体描述有了宏大的目标后，词汇量会迅速增长，空处应该指出设定目标对词汇增长有益。G项“However, with a clear goal, you can learn several thousand in the same period of time. (然而，有了一个明确的目标，你可以在相同的时间内学会几千个)”符合语境，表明有目标时，词汇学习会有大不同，和前文构成转折，引出后文。故选G。 第三部分 语言运用 （共两节，满分30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四个选项中选出最佳选项。 I was waiting in a checkout line.

They are so immersed in their academic studies that they have little time for exercise. Regular exercise plays a vital role in our lives. Physically, it helps build up our strength, enhance our immunity, and improve our physical coordination and flexibility. Mentally, it is an excellent way to relieve stress and anxiety. After a tiring study session, a short jog or a game of badminton can make us feel relaxed and refreshed. Therefore, I advocate that students should spare more time for exercise.

But my story is of a storm that gave me more than I’d thought to ask for. The tornado(龙卷风)blew through on a Sunday. We were visiting grandparents in Raleigh then, unaware that seventy miles away the big tree in our front yard was tearing through our roof and destroying the kitchen. When we returned, we saw Rosica’s father and brothers in our yard, gathering debris(碎片)and using a chain saw to cut the thickest branches of the fallen tree, though we barely knew them then. They were covered in sweat and dirt. My mom didn’t seem to notice how happy they were to help us because the first thing she said was “Oh, you don’t need to be doing all that work!” Mr. Flores laughed.“Claro! Of course, we don’t. But more importantly, you cannot sleep in that house tonight. Come and speak to my wife. She’ll help you figure out what to do.” My mom doesn’t usually let people tell her what to do, but she sighed(叹气)deeply as she took in the sight of our home in the failing light, reached for my hand, and followed our neighbor to their house. The Flores family lived across the street. Their home was the same size as ours but housed three generations. Rosica was my age. I knew her name and face, but since she was new to our school, and had a different teacher than I did, we had never spoken. It was she who answered the door.“Mama is changing the sheets on the bed for you, and there’s some lemon cheesecake on the table.” “Please don’t trouble yourself. I think I’d call a hotel and see about a room,” my mom said, more uneasy than usual. Mrs. Flores came down the stairs and smiled at us warmly, “Y our room is ready. I know it’s more encouraged to give than receive, but allow yourself to receive a place to stay, and allow us the chance to give you something you need!” 注意: 1.续写词数应为150左右: 2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: Our two-week stay at Flores’s home started. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Following our stay in their home, a beautiful tradition began. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Our two-week stay at Flores’s home started. In the beginning, my mom was very uneasy and thought that living here could be a trouble for the family. She would help them with the housework as much as possible. The family were very friendly to us. They always said to us that, “Be at home!” They not only prepared everything we needed for us, but also cooked us delicious food, trying their best to make us feel at home. Gradually, we became familiar with each other just like a family. With Thanksgiving Day coming, our house was still under repair, which meant that we had to celebrate the festival with the family. Following our stay in their home, a beautiful tradition began. On Thanksgiving Day, we together made a big dinner. My mom roasted the turkey which was popular with everyone. During the dinner, my mom extended her thanks to the family. “Thank you! I really don’t know what to say, but really thank you!” “Friends need no thanks!” said Mrs. Flores. We all laughed and enjoyed the dinner with joy and gratitude. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了龙卷风将作者家的房子毁坏，邻居Flores先生和他的孩子们不仅帮助整理作者家的院子，还邀请作者一家去他家住宿。Flores夫人热情地款待作者一家。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我们住在Flores家的两个星期开始了。”可知，第一段可描写作者一家住在Flores家的情景。 ②由第二段首句内容“在我们住在他们家之后，一个美好的传统开始了。”可知，第二段可描写作者一家Flores一家一起过节日的情景。 2.续写线索：开始住在Flores——感到拘束——热情款待——互相熟悉——美好的传统开始了——一起庆祝——表达感谢 3.词汇激活行为类 ①帮助某人做家务：help sb. with the housework/help sb. do the housework ②到来：come/approach ③庆祝：celebrate/observe 情绪类 ①高兴：with joy/happily ②感谢：with gratitude/gratefully 【点睛】[高分句型1].
