B Some people say global English is no longer just controlled by British or American English,but is running free and developing uniquely local forms.Can you figure out the following terms? “I like your smile,but unlike you put your shoes on my face.”This is a way of saying“Keep off the grass.”Or“people mountain,people sea”,which means“very crowded”. These examples are what we call Chinglish.When it comes to Chinglish,if all you know is“good good study,day day up”,you will be considered“out man”. Nowadays,more Chinglish words have been created,for example,a Chinese idiom is translated as“smilence”,a combination by the English word smile and silence. Chinglish usually offers a humorous look at misuses of the English language in Chinese street signs,products,and advertising.They are favoured by some English speaking tourists and visitors.Dominic Swire has been living in Beijing for a couple of years.“I think many Chinese people complain about the Chinglish and badly translated English.But you know,sometimes for us foreigners,it’s actually quite charming to see them.I think if the translations of English in China were all perfect,then something would be lost from Chinese culture.” However,Chinglish will probably become a“cultural relic”in the near future.Beijing has made a comprehensive plan to improve foreign language services and correct Chinglish within five years.“It is very ridiculous to see Chinglish on the signs in some scenic spots.And they are a kind of barrier for communication between Chinese and people from other countries,”a Beijinger said. Some Chinese university experts side with Chinglish.They argue that English has absorbed elements from other languages such as French and Spanish in its growth,and now it’s Chinese’s turn. 4. What can we call Chinglish? A. English words which get new Chinese meanings. B. The Chinese words which are difficult to translate. C. The words combining English vocabulary and Chinese grammar. D. The local words preventing foreigners from learning Chinese well. 5. What does“smilence”most probably mean? A. Saying nothing but to smile. B. Smiling without being noticed. C. Laughing at somebody. D. Knowing little about speech. 6. What is Swire’s attitude to Chinglish? A. It can show the humour of Chinese. B. It will attract more foreign tourists. C. It helps him to learn Chinese well. D. It seems part of Chinese culture. 7. Why Chinglish is likely to become a“cultural relic”in Beijing? A. Because it has become a unique bridge between Chinese and English. B. Because Chinglish is a chance to enrich Chinese and English. C. Because it improves the understanding between Chinese and foreigners. D. Because Beijing is determined to get rid of Chinglish signs. C Five years ago, when I taught art at a school in Seattle, I used Tinkertoys as a test at the beginning of a term to find out something about my students. I put a small set of Tinkertoys in front of each student, and said: “Make something out of the Tinkertoys. You have 45 minutes today — and 45 minutes each day for the rest of the week.” A few students hesitated to start They waited to see what the rest of the class would do. Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided. Another group built something out of their own imaginations. Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time, his constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home. I was delighted at the presence of such a student. Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work. His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect(感染) other students. Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside. I ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking. Without fail one would declare, “But I’m just not creative.” “Do you dream at night when you’re asleep?” “Oh, sure.” “So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.” The student would tell something wildly imaginative. Flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads. “That’s pretty creative. Who does that for you?” “Nobody. I do it.” “Really-at night, when you’re asleep?” “Sure.” “Try doing it in the daytime, in class, okay?” 8. The teacher used Tinkertoys in class in order to ________. A. know more about the students B. make the lessons more exciting C. raise the students’ interest in art D. teach the students about toy design 9. What do we know about the boy mentioned in Paragraph 3? A. He liked to help his teacher. B. He preferred to study alone. C. He was active in class. D. He was imaginative. 10. What does the underlined word “downside” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Mistake. B. Drawback. C. Difficulty. D. Burden. 11. Why did the teacher ask the students to talk about their dreams? A. To help them to see their creativity. B. To find out about their sleeping habits. C. To help them to improve their memory. D. To find out about their ways of thinking. D In habitats across the planet, animals periodically drop everything to walk, fly or swim to a new place. Some animals such as whales and geese learn migration paths by following their parents. Others, including small songbirds, gain the distance and direction of their migration within their genetic code. And some animals use a combination of genetics and culture to guide their migration. Another group of migrators does not quite fit either model, and researchers have only recently started to figure out how they find their way. The Cory’s shearwater is an oceangoing seabird that migrates over the Atlantic every year. The young do not migrate with their parents, so culture cannot explain their journeys. And the exact paths vary wildly from individual to individual, making genetics equally unlikely. Cory’s shearwaters are long-lived, rarely producing young successfully before age nine. This leaves an opening for learning and practice to develop their migration patterns. Researchers call this the “exploration-refinement”, and until now it has been hypothetical (假设的) because of difficulties in tracking migratory animals’ movements. But a team of researchers has done that by attaching small geolocators to more than 150 of the birds aged four to nine. They found that younger birds traveled longer distances, for longer periods, and had more diverse paths than older birds. “We finally have evidence of the ‘exploration-refinement’ for migratory birds,” says Letizia Campioni, who led the study. Younger Cory’s shearwaters are able to fly just as fast as the adults——but they do not, suggesting that the young do more exploring, which gradually fades as they mature and settle into a preferred course. “Although it may seem less efficient than other strategies, exploration refinement could be beneficial to birds and other organisms in a rapidly changing world due to unpredictable man-made changes,” says Barbara Frei. “It might be safer to repeat a behavior that was recently successful than to rely on patterns that were perfected long ago but might no longer be safe.” 12. What is the first paragraph mainly about? A. It describes animals’ habitats. B. It compares different species. C. It talks about migration models. D. It introduces a tracking technology. 13. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. The opening for learning and practice. B. The unique living habit of Cory’s shearwaters. C. The process scientists track Cory’s shearwaters’ movements. D. The way Cory’s shearwaters form their migration patterns. 14. What does Letizia’s study find about the younger Cory’s shearwaters? A. They travel as much as adult birds. B. They lower the speed for exploration. C. They move in a predictable manner. D. They look for a course with their parents. 15. What can we conclude from the last paragraph? A. Exploration refinement contributes to birds’ adaptability. B. Man-made changes make migration easier. C. Animals make a safer journey via a fixed track. D. A combination of strategies assures migration success 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。 A Few Active Listening Guidelines Listening is arguably the most important element of interpersonal communication. Our ability to listen well impacts the quality of all of our relationships, and not just at home with our family and friends—it can also affect our relationships and interactions on the job, as well as the effectiveness and quality of our work. ___16___ Instead, it is a skill that must be cultivated and practiced. Active listening means the difference between simply hearing, and listening with the intent to truly understand. It is a subtle but important distinction. 1.Give focused attention Try to minimize external(外部的) distractions. Turn down the noise, and put down or step away from what you’re doing if possible. ___17___ Don’t watch the clock, fidget(坐立不安) or go over your to-do list for later. 2. ___18___ Direct eye contact shows your attention and intention to listen. This doesn’t mean stare, though. Be reasonable, but try not to let your eyes wander to whatever is going on around you. 3. Reflect back Restate, but don’t repeat verbatim. Paraphrase what you think the other party is saying with responses such as: “What I’m hearing is…” or “Let me see if I’m following you…”___19___ 4. Respond appropriately Be open and honest in your responses. Share your thoughts insights and feelings in a clear, but respectful and considerate manner if you disagree. Active listening is a model for good communication. ____20____It takes practice to develop active listening skills, and it’s a habit that has to be reinforced(加强). Remind yourself that the goal of conversation is not merely to trade words, but to truly understand what the other party is saying and to be understood in turn. A. Maintain eye contact. B. Instead, focus on what is being said. C. You do not have to agree on everything. D. Also, set aside other internal thinking and dialogue. E. Listening is not something that comes naturally or easily for most of us. F. Reflecting back what you’ve heard signals that you’re attempting to understand fully. G. Remember that listening is not just to gather information and share ideas, but also to gain perspective and understanding. 第三部分 语言运用(共二节,满分30分) 第一节 完形填空(共15小题;每小题1分,共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。 Several high school football players made their hometown very proud when they rushed to help a woman trapped in her car after having an accident.

When Mr. Moose announced the paper airplane contest, all the students were very excited. Paul, who was on the wrestling team, said to other students: “I am the strongest. And I will be able to throw my airplane the farthest.” However, another student, Brian, was thinking how he could win. He did not play any sports and was not very strong. But he loved airplanes and really wanted to win the contest. Brian knew what he had to do. He went to the store and bought a big stack of paper. When he got home, he took the paper into the backyard. He took a piece of paper and folded an airplane. It didn't go very far, so Brian took another sheet and folded another airplane and threw it. This airplane went a little farther. Brian kept folding different kinds of airplanes and throwing them. Some went very far and some did not.

Chinglish usually offers a humorous look at misuses of the English language in Chinese street signs,products,and advertising.They are favoured by some English speaking tourists and visitors.Dominic Swire has been living in Beijing for a couple of years.“I think many Chinese people complain about the Chinglish and badly translated English.But you know,sometimes for us foreigners,it’s actually quite charming to see them.I think if the translations of English in China were all perfect,then something would be lost from Chinese culture.” However,Chinglish will probably become a“cultural relic”in the near future.Beijing has made a comprehensive plan to improve foreign language services and correct Chinglish within five years.“It is very ridiculous to see Chinglish on the signs in some scenic spots.And they are a kind of barrier for communication between Chinese and people from other countries,”a Beijinger said. Some Chinese university experts side with Chinglish.They argue that English has absorbed elements from other languages such as French and Spanish in its growth,and now it’s Chinese’s turn. 4. What can we call Chinglish? A. English words which get new Chinese meanings. B. The Chinese words which are difficult to translate. C. The words combining English vocabulary and Chinese grammar. D. The local words preventing foreigners from learning Chinese well. 5. What does“smilence”most probably mean? A. Saying nothing but to smile. B. Smiling without being noticed. C. Laughing at somebody. D. Knowing little about speech. 6. What is Swire’s attitude to Chinglish? A. It can show the humour of Chinese. B. It will attract more foreign tourists. C. It helps him to learn Chinese well. D. It seems part of Chinese culture. 7. Why Chinglish is likely to become a“cultural relic”in Beijing? A. Because it has become a unique bridge between Chinese and English. B. Because Chinglish is a chance to enrich Chinese and English. C. Because it improves the understanding between Chinese and foreigners. D. Because Beijing is determined to get rid of Chinglish signs. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. D 7. D 【解析】 【分析】本文是说明文。如今, 世界英语不单单受美式英语和英式英语的影响, 英语词汇和汉语语法的结合还导致了越来越多的“中国式英语”的出现。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“more Chinglish words have been created, for example, a Chinese idiom is translated as“smilence”,a combination by the English word smile and silence.” 更多的中式英语词汇被创造出来,例如,一个汉语成语被翻译成“smilence”,由英语单词微笑和沉默组合而成。这里“笑而不语”把英语词汇按照汉语语法表达出来,故选C项。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段结尾“a combination by the English word smile and silence”可知,根据中文意思把“微笑”和“沉默”结合,即表示“笑而不语”。故选A项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中Swire说话的内容“I think if the translations of English in China were all perfect, then something would be lost from Chinese culture.” 我认为如果中国的英语翻译都很完美,那么中国文化就会丢失一些东西,可知, 他认为中国式英语是中国文化的一部分。故选D项。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的 “Beijing has made a comprehensive plan to improve foreign language services and correct Chinglish within five years. ” 北京已经制定了一项全面计划,在五年内提高外语服务和纠正中式英语。所以中式英语可能将不存在了,故选D项。 C Five years ago, when I taught art at a school in Seattle, I used Tinkertoys as a test at the beginning of a term to find out something about my students. I put a small set of Tinkertoys in front of each student, and said: “Make something out of the Tinkertoys. You have 45 minutes today — and 45 minutes each day for the rest of the week.” A few students hesitated to start. They waited to see what the rest of the class would do. Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided. Another group built something out of their own imaginations. Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time, his constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home. I was delighted at the presence of such a student. Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work. His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect(感染) other students. Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside. I ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking. Without fail one would declare, “But I’m just not creative.” “Do you dream at night when you’re asleep?” “Oh, sure.” “So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.” The student would tell something wildly imaginative. Flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads. “That’s pretty creative. Who does that for you?” “Nobody. I do it.” “Really-at night, when you’re asleep?” “Sure.” “Try doing it in the daytime, in class, okay?” 8. The teacher used Tinkertoys in class in order to ________. A. know more about the students B. make the lessons more exciting C. raise the students’ interest in art D. teach the students about toy design 9. What do we know about the boy mentioned in Paragraph 3? A. He liked to help his teacher. B. He preferred to study alone. C. He was active in class. D. He was imaginative. 10 What does the underlined word “downside” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Mistake. B. Drawback. C. Difficulty. D. Burden. 11. Why did the teacher ask the students to talk about their dreams? A. To help them to see their creativity. B. To find out about their sleeping habits. C. To help them to improve their memory. D. To find out about their ways of thinking. 【答案】8. A 9. D 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲了作者通过让学生拼装玩具发现并鼓励学生的创造性和想象力。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。由第二段A few students hesitated to start. They waited to see the rest of the class would do. Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided. Another group built something out of their own imaginations.可知,当我把拼装式玩具放在学生面前的时候,有些学生犹豫着在等着看别人如何行动,有一些学生查看了使用说明并根据模型做出了一些东西。而另外一些学生则根据本人的想象力做出了一些东西。通过观察,作者对每个学生有了更多的了解。故选A。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。由第三段中Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work. His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect(感染) other students.可知,这是一个非常有创造力的人在工作。他的出现意味着我在课堂上有一个意想不到的助教,他的创造力会感染其他学生。所以这个男孩很有想象力和创造力,故选D。 【10题详解】 词义猜测题。由第四段I ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking.可知,我冒着失去那些有着不同思考方式的学生,可知这种方法也有弊端,所以“downside”意思是“弊端”,故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据对话内容可知,作者鼓励孩子们说出最有趣的有创造性和想象力的梦,并鼓励他们在白天的课堂里把梦的内容做出来。作者这样做的目的就是为了让他们看到自己的创造性和想象力。故选A。 D In habitats across the planet, animals periodically drop everything to walk, fly or swim to a new place. Some animals such as whales and geese learn migration paths by following their parents. Others, including small songbirds, gain the distance and direction of their migration within their genetic code. And some animals use a combination of genetics and culture to guide their migration. Another group of migrators does not quite fit either model, and researchers have only recently started to figure out how they find their way. The Cory’s shearwater is an oceangoing seabird that migrates over the Atlantic every year. The young do not migrate with their parents, so culture cannot explain their journeys. And the exact paths vary wildly from individual to individual, making genetics equally unlikely. Cory’s shearwaters are long-lived, rarely producing young successfully before age nine. This leaves an opening for learning and practice to develop their migration patterns. Researchers call this the “exploration-refinement”, and until now it has been hypothetical (假设的) because of difficulties in tracking migratory animals’ movements. But a team of researchers has done that by attaching small geolocators to more than 150 of the birds aged four to nine. They found that younger birds traveled longer distances, for longer periods, and had more diverse paths than older birds. “We finally have evidence of the ‘exploration-refinement’ for migratory birds,” says Letizia Campioni, who led the study. Younger Cory’s shearwaters are able to fly just as fast as the adults——but they do not, suggesting that the young do more exploring, which gradually fades as they mature and settle into a preferred course. “Although it may seem less efficient than other strategies, exploration refinement could be beneficial to birds and other organisms in a rapidly changing world due to unpredictable man-made changes,” says Barbara Frei. “It might be safer to repeat a behavior that was recently successful than to rely on patterns that were perfected long ago but might no longer be safe.” 12. What is the first paragraph mainly about? A. It describes animals’ habitats. B. It compares different species. C. It talks about migration models. D. It introduces a tracking technology. 13. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. The opening for learning and practice. B. The unique living habit of Cory’s shearwaters. C. The process scientists track Cory’s shearwaters’ movements. D. The way Cory’s shearwaters form their migration patterns. 14. What does Letizia’s study find about the younger Cory’s shearwaters? A. They travel as much as adult birds. B. They lower the speed for exploration. C. They move in a predictable manner. D. They look for a course with their parents. 15. What can we conclude from the last paragraph? A. Exploration refinement contributes to birds’ adaptability. B. Man-made changes make migration easier. C. Animals make a safer journey via a fixed track. D. A combination of strategies assures migration success 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了动物迁徙的遗传和文化两种模式,以及一种鸟类通过探索和精炼学习迁徙模式的特殊方式。 【12题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“In habitats across the planet, animals periodically drop everything to walk, fly or swim to a new place. Some animals such as whales and geese learn migration paths by following their parents. Others, including small songbirds, gain the distance and direction of their migration within their genetic code. And some animals use a combination of genetics and culture to guide their migration. (在世界各地的栖息地,动物们会周期性地放下一切,步行、飞行或游泳到一个新的地方。一些动物,如鲸鱼和鹅,通过跟随父母来学习迁徙路线。其他鸟类,包括小型鸣禽,通过遗传密码获得迁徙的距离和方向。有些动物利用基因和文化的结合来指导它们的迁徙。)”可知,第一段主要描述了动物的不同的迁徙模式。故选C。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词上文“Cory’s shearwaters are long-lived, rarely producing young successfully before age nine. This leaves an opening for learning and practice to develop their migration patterns. (科里的海鸥寿命很长,很少能在9岁之前成功繁殖后代。这为学习和实践发展它们的迁移模式留下了空间。)”可知,上文提到了该海鸥长寿的特点以及其不断开发迁徙模式。由此可知,划线单词“this”指的是该海鸥形成这种迁徙模式的方法。故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Younger Cory’s shearwaters are able to fly just as fast as the adults——but they do not, suggesting that the young do more exploring, which gradually fades as they mature and settle into a preferred course. (年轻的科里海鸥能飞得和成年海鸥一样快——但它们不会这样,这表明年轻的海鸥会做更多的探索,随着它们成熟并适应一个首选的路线,这种探索会逐渐消失。)”可知,年轻的科里海鸥为了进行更多的探索而降低了自己的飞行速度。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段““Although it may seem less efficient than other strategies, exploration refinement could be beneficial to birds and other organisms in a rapidly changing world due to unpredictable man-made changes,” says Barbara Frei. “It might be safer to repeat a behavior that was recently successful than to rely on patterns that were perfected long ago but might no longer be safe.” (Barbara Frei说:“尽管与其他策略相比,这种方法似乎效率较低,但在一个由于不可预测的人为变化而迅速变化的世界中,探索改进可能对鸟类和其他生物有益。重复最近成功的行为可能比依赖很久以前完善但可能不再安全的模式更安全。”)”可知,这种鸟类的这种探索改进虽然效率低,但是更有助于鸟类在这个瞬息万变的世界存活下去,也就是说探索迁徙路线会有助于鸟类的适应性。故选A。 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。 A Few Active Listening Guidelines Listening is arguably the most important element of interpersonal communication. Our ability to listen well impacts the quality of all of our relationships, and not just at home with our family and friends—it can also affect our relationships and interactions on the job, as well as the effectiveness and quality of our work. ___16___ Instead, it is a skill that must be cultivated and practiced. Active listening means the difference between simply hearing, and listening with the intent to truly understand. It is a subtle but important distinction. 1.Give focused attention Try to minimize external(外部的) distractions. Turn down the noise, and put down or step away from what you’re doing if possible. ___17___ Don’t watch the clock, fidget(坐立不安) or go over your to-do list for later. 2. ___18___ Direct eye contact shows your attention and intention to listen. This doesn’t mean stare, though. Be reasonable, but try not to let your eyes wander to whatever is going on around you. 3. Reflect back Restate, but don’t repeat verbatim. Paraphrase what you think the other party is saying with responses such as: “What I’m hearing is…” or “Let me see if I’m following you…”___19___ 4. Respond appropriately Be open and honest in your responses. Share your thoughts, insights and feelings in a clear, but respectful and considerate manner if you disagree. Active listening is a model for good communication. ____20____It takes practice to develop active listening skills, and it’s a habit that has to be reinforced(加强). Remind yourself that the goal of conversation is not merely to trade words, but to truly understand what the other party is saying and to be understood in turn. A. Maintain eye contact. B. Instead, focus on what is being said. C You do not have to agree on everything. D. Also, set aside other internal thinking and dialogue. E. Listening is not something that comes naturally or easily for most of us. F. Reflecting back what you’ve heard signals that you’re attempting to understand fully. G. Remember that listening is not just to gather information and share ideas, but also to gain perspective and understanding. 【答案】16. E 17. D 18. A 19. F 20.

Each student would design a paper airplane. And then they would take turns throwing their airplanes. The student whose airplane flew the farthest would win. When Mr. Moose announced the paper airplane contest, all the students were very excited. Paul, who was on the wrestling team, said to other students: “I am the strongest. And I will be able to throw my airplane the farthest.” However, another student, Brian, was thinking how he could win. He did not play any sports and was not very strong. But he loved airplanes and really wanted to win the contest. Brian knew what he had to do. He went to the store and bought a big stack of paper. When he got home, he took the paper into the backyard. He took a piece of paper and folded an airplane. It didn't go very far, so Brian took another sheet and folded another airplane and threw it. This airplane went a little farther. Brian kept folding different kinds of airplanes and throwing them. Some went very far and some did not. Finally, when Brian had used all the paper, he walked up to the airplane that had flown the farthest and picked it up. 注意: 1.续写的词数应为120左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 On the contest day, all the students lined up on the playground. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The whole school cheered as Brian went up to get his prize! ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 第一段: Finally, it was Brian's turn. Brian took the airplane that he had folded the day before. He walked up to the line and,with all his strength, he threw the plane. It went flying, farther and farther, until finally it landed 10 feet past Paul's plane! The whole school cheered. Brian won the contest. Mr Moose gave him a prize:a toy airplane. 第二段: Brian won because he tried out many solutions to the problem of how to make an airplane fly very far. He did this by testing out many different designs and comparing the results. When he found the design that worked best and the paper airplane that flew the farthest, he was happy to use it. 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇读后续写。本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了科学老师穆斯先生决定学校将举办一场纸飞机比赛。每个学生都会设计一架纸飞机。然后他们会轮流扔飞机。飞机飞得最远的学生将获胜。学生布莱恩热爱飞机,真的想赢得比赛并通过自己不断琢磨并改善飞机,使飞机越飞越远。 【详解】1.段落续写: ①由第一段首句内容“比赛当天,所有的学生都在操场上排队。”可知,第一段可描写布莱恩展示自己的飞机并试飞获得第一名。 ②由第二段首句内容“当布莱恩上前领取奖品时,全校都欢呼起来!”可知,第二段可对布莱恩飞获胜原因进行分析。 2.续写线索:尽全力参赛——取得第一——获得奖励—— 全校欢呼——分析获胜原因 3.词汇激活 行为类 用尽全力:with all one’s strength /try one’s best/with all one’s might 掷出:throw/toss .对比:compare/ contrast/ make a comparison 情绪类 ①.欢呼:cheer/ hail/scared ②.高兴:happy / glad/delighted 【点睛】[高分句型1].
