B The shadow play is a typical traditional entertainment that has survived and thrived over the centuries. It is taken as an earliest ancestor of modern cinema. Legend has it that more than 2,000 years ago，Emperor Wudi of the Western Han Dynasty was very depressed over the death of his favorite concubine（妃子）.To help him get over his sadness, a minister made a puppet out of cotton and silk in the likeness of the concubine and projected its shadow on a curtain for the emperor to see. The show brought the emperor some comfort. He somehow believed the shadow was his lover’ spirit. This is thought to be the beginning of the shadow play. One mouth tells stories of thousands of years；a pair of hands operates millions of soldiers. This is how the shadow puppeteer works. Nicknamed “the business of the five”，a shadow puppet group is made up of five people. One operates the puppets, one plays a Suona and a Yueqin, one plays the Banhu, one is in charge of percussion（打击乐器）instruments, and one sings. During performances, “actors” are held close to a white curtain with their colored shadows cast on it by a strong light from behind. The operator plays five puppets at the same time，each of which has three threads. Ten fingers handle fifteen threads. Moved by guiding sticks，the puppets play roles with musical accompaniment. The popularity of shadow play in some way lies in the equipment being light and easy to carry, the small number of people needed for a performance, and the flexible requirements for performance places. The plays can be quite dramatic and, when it comes to fairy tales or kungfu stories, the "actors" may be made to ride on clouds or perform unusual feats, to the great enjoyment of the audience, especially children. The design of the figures follows traditional moral evaluation. The audience can tell a figure’s character by seeing his mask. Like the masks in Beijing Opera, a red mask represents honesty, a black mask, loyalty, and a white one, betrayal. Nowadays, the shadow play has been industrialized and developed a series of tourist products for the promotion of Chinese culture and tourism. 24. What is the second paragraph mainly about? A. A love story of Emperor Wudi. B. How to please an Emperor. C. The origin of the shadow play. D. How to make a cotton puppet. 25. According to the author, the audience may take great pleasure___________. A. when roles are played without music B. because the equipment is light to carry C. when the puppets give lively performances D. because the number of the operators is small 26. What is the best title for the text? A. The Rapid Development of Beijing Opera B. Shadow Puppetry: Traditional Arts and Crafts C. The Business of the Five: A Shadow Puppet Group D. Traditional Characters and Masks in Beijing Opera 27. What is the author’s attitude towards the future of shadow play? A. Negative. B. Doubtful. C. Positive. D. Unconcerned. C TV was one of the greatest inventions in the 20th century. Nowadays, nearly every house has at least one TV set. Television came into being based on the inventions and discoveries of many scientists. On April 7, 1927, the first public television programme was broadcast in the USA. The signals were received on a very small screen. It was only about the size of a business card. The pictures were reddish (微红色的) and not clear. In the 1930s, bigger screens appeared with black-and-white pictures. However, a snowy picture was the best many TV viewers could hope for. Often, they could only get one station, and only when the weather conditions were good. When World War II(1939~1945) began, the development of TV stopped. There were a very small number of TV sets in the hands of the public. By 1945, there were fewer than 7,000 working TV sets in the USA. A TV set cost about half the price of a car at that time. The time after World War II is considered one of the golden periods of television. Families saved money during the war years, and wanted to buy a lot of things after the war. TV sets were soon put onto the “must-have” list.1950~1959 was an exciting period for television. Colour television and remote (遥控的) controls came out during this time. By 1955, the cost of TV sets came down a lot. Instead of being equal to half the price of a car, they were now just equal to the cost of a new set of tyres (轮胎). This marked the beginning of the booming age of TV. 28. Where was the first public television programme broadcast? A. In America. B. In British. C. In Russia. D. In Canada. 29. What do we know about the cost of TV sets before 1955? A. It’s beautiful. B. It’s boring. C. It’s expensive. D. It’s cheap. 30. Which of the following is true? A. In the 1930s, TV signals became very easy to receive. B. During World War II, TV sets went into lots of families. C. After World War II TV was invented. D. TV developed fast in the 1950s. 31. What’s the best title for the passage? A. The Birth of Television B. The Development of Television C. The Need for Television D. The Price of Television D New research concludes people may struggle to differentiate between medical advice given by chatbots (聊天机器人) and human health care providers. Findings indicate chatbots, like ChatGPT, could be valuable tools in assisting healthcare providers in communicating with patients. ChatGPT is trained to predict the most probable next word in a conversation using vast amounts of Internet data. It responds to user enquiries, learning from human feedback. However, it’s not without limitations. ChatGPT, like other large language models（LLMs）, can sometimes produce biased information and lacks the ability to perform true reasoning. The research had 392 participants aged 18 and above who were presented with ten patient questions. Half of the responses to these questions were given by humans, while the other half came from ChatGPT. Participants then had to identify the origin of each response and rate their trust in the chatbot’s answers from “completely untrustworthy” to “completely trustworthy”. Participants could only correctly identify chatbot-given responses 65.5% of the time. Participants displayed the most trust in chatbots when handling the matters, such as scheduling appointments or addressing insurance enquiries, with an average trust score of 3.94. Preventative care questions, like cancer screenings, came next at 3.52. However, trust decreased for diagnostic (诊断) and treatment advice, registering scores of 2.90 and 2.89 respectively. The study’s results indicate the potential chatbots possess in aiding patient-provider communications, especially in areas like administrative tasks. But scientists have something to say regarding chatbots assuming more clinical roles. “Providers should exercise picky judgment when it comes to chatbot-given advice due to the limitations of AI models,” researchers said in a statement. The use of AI into healthcare is no longer a distant possibility but a rapidly evolving reality. This study offers a glimpse (瞥见) into the ways we can expect to see AI platforms team with medical clinics. It also shows us improvements that are needed so that new technologies become effective aids and tools for both doctors and patients. These include the following. 32. Which is closest in meaning to “biased” in paragraph 2? A. Inaccurate. B. Indirect. C. Unnecessary. D. Unusual. 33. What affected the participants’ level of trust in chatbot responses? A. Their answers to chatbots’ questions. B. Their then physical conditions. C. The origin of each response. D. The nature of the enquiry. 34. What’s the scientists’ attitude to chatbots taking on clinical medical tasks? A. Disapproving. B. Unclear. C. Conservative. D. Positive. 35. What might the author continue talking about regarding the study? A. Possible reasons for its findings. B. Its major limitations in reality. C. Its influences on healthcare. D. Explanations of its methods. 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。 Spring marathons are approaching, and we’re here to help you prepare for the starting line. ____36____.

Our parents thought we were lucky to have an Olympic-size swimming pool at the school. My mom stressed that the swimming pool was one of the best in our city. But I didn’t feel happy about it at all. Instead, I felt afraid of the swimming pool. It was mainly because I was terribly shy. I was so shy that I always sat at the back of the room in class so I’d not be called upon to read. As for the present physical education class each Monday morning, I would work my way to the back of the line forming at the diving board so I would not have to practice the dives. Now, it was another Monday morning - the morning of our diving test. My blood ran cold when the teacher Ms. Robbins announced that we would be graded for our final on the most difficult dive- the jackknife. And she added, “This diving test is important. The one who fails has to spare time in the following Monday mornings to practice diving in this swimming pool and attend this test again.” My body kept shaking with fear as the line to the scary diving board shortened. As I watched, each student seemed to perform the challenging dive effortlessly. And shortly I would have to attempt something that I had never even practiced before. Then I remembered someone telling me that when you picture yourself doing a skill over and over, it’s just as effective as physically practicing that skill. So I watched carefully as each classmate jumped at the end of the board once, added a jump for height, folded their body in half to reach for their toes, and finally straightened out like an arrow for going into the water. After carefully watching for a while, I was actually in a state of surprise, because all of a sudden I realized that it was possible for me to perform these four steps of diving. Eventually all classmates except me finished jumping. The teacher announced that it was my turn. 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。 With my heart knocking wildly, I walked down the diving board towards its end. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Knowing I failed, I climbed out of the pool, embarrassed. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 六安市独山中学2024-2025学年第一学期期中考试 高三英语 注意事项： 1.本试卷第I卷和第II卷共10页，全卷150分，考试时间120分钟。 2.答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上指定的位置。 3.全部答案在答题卡上完成，答在本试卷上无效。 第I卷（选择题 共95分） 第一部分：听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 How might the man perform in the writing contest?

It is taken as an earliest ancestor of modern cinema. Legend has it that more than 2,000 years ago，Emperor Wudi of the Western Han Dynasty was very depressed over the death of his favorite concubine（妃子）.To help him get over his sadness, a minister made a puppet out of cotton and silk in the likeness of the concubine and projected its shadow on a curtain for the emperor to see. The show brought the emperor some comfort. He somehow believed the shadow was his lover’ spirit. This is thought to be the beginning of the shadow play. One mouth tells stories of thousands of years；a pair of hands operates millions of soldiers. This is how the shadow puppeteer works. Nicknamed “the business of the five”，a shadow puppet group is made up of five people. One operates the puppets, one plays a Suona and a Yueqin, one plays the Banhu, one is in charge of percussion（打击乐器）instruments, and one sings. During performances, “actors” are held close to a white curtain with their colored shadows cast on it by a strong light from behind. The operator plays five puppets at the same time，each of which has three threads. Ten fingers handle fifteen threads. Moved by guiding sticks，the puppets play roles with musical accompaniment. The popularity of shadow play in some way lies in the equipment being light and easy to carry, the small number of people needed for a performance, and the flexible requirements for performance places. The plays can be quite dramatic and, when it comes to fairy tales or kungfu stories, the "actors" may be made to ride on clouds or perform unusual feats, to the great enjoyment of the audience, especially children. The design of the figures follows traditional moral evaluation. The audience can tell a figure’s character by seeing his mask. Like the masks in Beijing Opera, a red mask represents honesty, a black mask, loyalty, and a white one, betrayal. Nowadays, the shadow play has been industrialized and developed a series of tourist products for the promotion of Chinese culture and tourism. 24. What is the second paragraph mainly about? A. A love story of Emperor Wudi. B. How to please an Emperor. C. The origin of the shadow play. D. How to make a cotton puppet. 25. According to the author, the audience may take great pleasure___________. A. when roles are played without music B. because the equipment is light to carry C. when the puppets give lively performances D. because the number of the operators is small 26. What is the best title for the text? A. The Rapid Development of Beijing Opera B. Shadow Puppetry: Traditional Arts and Crafts C. The Business of the Five: A Shadow Puppet Group D. Traditional Characters and Masks in Beijing Opera 27. What is the author’s attitude towards the future of shadow play? A. Negative. B. Doubtful. C. Positive. D. Unconcerned. 【答案】24. C 25. C 26. B 27. C 【解析】 【分析】本文是说明文。文章讲述了皮影戏是一种典型的传统娱乐活动，在过去的几个世纪中一直存在并繁荣发展，它被认为是现代电影的雏形。 【24题详解】 段落大意题。根据第二段“Legend has it that more than 2，000 years ago，Emperor Wudi of the Western Han Dynasty was very depressed over the death of his favorite concubine（妃子）.To help him get over his sadness，a minister made a puppet out of cotton and silk in the likeness of the concubine and projected its shadow on a curtain for the emperor to see. The show brought the emperor some comfort. He somehow believed the shadow was his lover's spirit. This is thought to be the beginning of the shadow play.”可知，相传在2000年前，西汉皇帝汉武帝因其最爱的妃子去世而感到沮丧。为了帮助他摆脱悲伤，一名大臣用棉花和丝线制成了一个像妃子一样的木偶并将其影子投射在幕布上供皇帝看。这个表演使皇帝感到了些安慰。他相信影子是妃子精神的存在。人们认为这是皮影戏的开始。因此第二段主要讲的是皮影戏的由来。故选C。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“the “actors” may be made to ride on clouds or perform unusual feats, to the great enjoyment of the audience, especially children.”可知，“演员”骑在云上或表演非凡的壮举，以使观众特别是孩子们感到极大的享受。即观众可能会很高兴当有人操作木偶进行活跃的表演时。故选C。 【26题详解】 标题判断题。通读全文尤其是第一段可知，皮影戏是一种典型的传统娱乐活动，在过去的几个世纪中一直存在并繁荣发展，它被认为是现代电影的雏形。因此文章的最佳标题是“皮影戏：传统手工艺”，它符合文章的内容。故选B。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Nowadays, the shadow play has been industrialized and developed a series of tourist products for the promotion of Chinese culture and tourism.”可知，如今皮影戏已经产业化，并开发了一系列旅游产品来促进中国文化和旅游业的发展。因此作者对皮影戏的未来持肯定态度。故选C。 C TV was one of the greatest inventions in the 20th century. Nowadays, nearly every house has at least one TV set. Television came into being based on the inventions and discoveries of many scientists. On April 7, 1927, the first public television programme was broadcast in the USA. The signals were received on a very small screen. It was only about the size of a business card. The pictures were reddish (微红色的) and not clear. In the 1930s, bigger screens appeared with black-and-white pictures. However, a snowy picture was the best many TV viewers could hope for. Often, they could only get one station, and only when the weather conditions were good. When World War II(1939~1945) began, the development of TV stopped. There were a very small number of TV sets in the hands of the public. By 1945, there were fewer than 7,000 working TV sets in the USA. A TV set cost about half the price of a car at that time. The time after World War II is considered one of the golden periods of television. Families saved money during the war years, and wanted to buy a lot of things after the war. TV sets were soon put onto the “must-have” list.1950~1959 was an exciting period for television. Colour television and remote (遥控的) controls came out during this time. By 1955, the cost of TV sets came down a lot. Instead of being equal to half the price of a car, they were now just equal to the cost of a new set of tyres (轮胎). This marked the beginning of the booming age of TV. 28. Where was the first public television programme broadcast? A. In America. B. In British. C. In Russia. D. In Canada. 29. What do we know about the cost of TV sets before 1955? A. It’s beautiful. B. It’s boring. C. It’s expensive. D. It’s cheap. 30. Which of the following is true? A. In the 1930s, TV signals became very easy to receive. B. During World War II, TV sets went into lots of families. C. After World War II, TV was invented. D. TV developed fast in the 1950s. 31. What’s the best title for the passage? A. The Birth of Television B. The Development of Television C. The Need for Television D. The Price of Television 【答案】28. A 29. C 30. D 31. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍了电视机的发展历程。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“On April 7, 1927, the first public television programme was broadcast in the USA.(1927年4月7日，第一个公共电视节目在美国播出)”可知，第一个公共电视节目在美国播出。故选A。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“By 1955, the cost of TV sets came down a lot. Instead of being equal to half the price of a car, they were now just equal to the cost of a new set of tyres (轮胎).(到1955年，电视机的价格下降了很多。它们的价格不再是一辆汽车的一半，现在只相当于一套新轮胎的价格)”可知，1955年之前电视机价格昂贵，故选C。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Families saved money during the war years, and wanted to buy a lot of things after the war. TV sets were soon put onto the “must-have” list.1950~1959 was an exciting period for television.(家庭在战争年代攒了钱，战后想买很多东西。电视机很快就被列入了‘必备’清单。1950~1959年是电视业激动人心的时期)”可知，20世纪50年代电视发展迅速，故选D。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。第一段“TV was one of the greatest inventions in the 20th century. Nowadays, nearly every house has at least one TV set.(电视是20世纪最伟大的发明之一。如今，几乎每家每户都至少有一台电视机)”提出文章主题，下文每段都出现了年份，所以文章主要介绍了电视机的发展历程，故选B。 D New research concludes people may struggle to differentiate between medical advice given by chatbots (聊天机器人) and human health care providers. Findings indicate chatbots, like ChatGPT, could be valuable tools in assisting healthcare providers in communicating with patients. ChatGPT is trained to predict the most probable next word in a conversation using vast amounts of Internet data. It responds to user enquiries, learning from human feedback. However, it’s not without limitations. ChatGPT, like other large language models（LLMs）, can sometimes produce biased information and lacks the ability to perform true reasoning. The research had 392 participants aged 18 and above who were presented with ten patient questions. Half of the responses to these questions were given by humans, while the other half came from ChatGPT. Participants then had to identify the origin of each response and rate their trust in the chatbot’s answers from “completely untrustworthy” to “completely trustworthy”. Participants could only correctly identify chatbot-given responses 65.5% of the time. Participants displayed the most trust in chatbots when handling the matters, such as scheduling appointments or addressing insurance enquiries, with an average trust score of 3.94. Preventative care questions, like cancer screenings, came next at 3.52. However, trust decreased for diagnostic (诊断) and treatment advice, registering scores of 2.90 and 2.89 respectively. The study’s results indicate the potential chatbots possess in aiding patient-provider communications, especially in areas like administrative tasks. But scientists have something to say regarding chatbots assuming more clinical roles. “Providers should exercise picky judgment when it comes to chatbot-given advice due to the limitations of AI models,” researchers said in a statement. The use of AI into healthcare is no longer a distant possibility but a rapidly evolving reality. This study offers a glimpse (瞥见) into the ways we can expect to see AI platforms team with medical clinics. It also shows us improvements that are needed so that new technologies become effective aids and tools for both doctors and patients. These include the following. 32. Which is closest in meaning to “biased” in paragraph 2? A. Inaccurate. B. Indirect. C. Unnecessary. D. Unusual. 33. What affected the participants’ level of trust in chatbot responses? A. Their answers to chatbots’ questions. B. Their then physical conditions. C. The origin of each response. D. The nature of the enquiry. 34. What’s the scientists’ attitude to chatbots taking on clinical medical tasks? A. Disapproving. B. Unclear. C. Conservative. D. Positive. 35. What might the author continue talking about regarding the study? A. Possible reasons for its findings. B. Its major limitations in reality. C. Its influences on healthcare. D. Explanations of its methods. 【答案】32. A 33. D 34. C 35. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，研究表明，聊天机器人，如ChatGPT，可能是帮助医疗保健提供者与患者沟通的有价值的工具。 【32题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线词前一句“However, it’s not without limitations.(然而，它并非没有限制)”可知，划线词所在句是描述ChatGPT的缺点，由此可推知本句意为“与其他大型语言模型（LLMs）一样，ChatGPT有时会产生有偏差的信息，并且缺乏执行真正推理的能力”，biased意为“有偏差的”，与A项“不准确的”意思相近，故选A。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Participants displayed the most trust in chatbots when handling the matters, such as scheduling appointments or addressing insurance enquiries, with an average trust score of 3.94. Preventative care questions, like cancer screenings, came next at 3.52. However, trust decreased for diagnostic (诊断) and treatment advice, registering scores of 2.90 and 2.89 respectively.(参与者在处理诸如安排约会或解决保险咨询等问题时，对聊天机器人的信任度最高，平均信任度为3.94分。其次是预防保健问题，比如癌症筛查，得分为3.52分。然而，对诊断和治疗建议的信任度下降，分别为2.90分和2.89分)”可知，对于不同类型的问题，参与者对聊天机器人的信任度不一样，所以问题的性质影响参与者对聊天机器人反应的信任程度，故选D。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“But scientists have something to say regarding chatbots assuming more clinical roles. ‘Providers should exercise picky judgment when it comes to chatbot-given advice due to the limitations of AI models,’ researchers said in a statement.(但对于聊天机器人承担更多临床角色，科学家们有话要说。研究人员在一份声明中表示：‘由于人工智能模型的局限性，提供者在接受聊天机器人提供的建议时应该进行挑剔的判断。’)”可知，科学家们对聊天机器人承担临床医疗任务持保守态度，故选C。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。最后一段中“This study offers a glimpse (瞥见) into the ways we can expect to see AI platforms team with medical clinics. It also shows us improvements that are needed so that new technologies become effective aids and tools for both doctors and patients. These include the following.(这项研究让我们看到了人工智能平台与医疗诊所合作的方式。它还向我们展示了需要改进的地方，以便使新技术成为医生和病人的有效辅助和工具。这些包括以下内容)”描述了该研究在医疗保健方面的意义和影响，接下来作者可能会具体讲阐述这种影响，故选C。 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。 Spring marathons are approaching, and we’re here to help you prepare for the starting line. ____36____.

It is really ____56____ (challenge) to get rid of and a lot of it ends up in nature or in the ocean in particular. There, it is a threat ____57____ our animals and plants. Now a company from the Netherlands, a small country in western Europe, says that it will use plastic ____58____ (find) in the ocean to build roads. Volker Wessels ____59____ (turn) the plastic into building blocks for the roads. They will be like puzzle pieces ____60____ fit into each other. Not only will this be good for the environment, but also it will be good for the people who look after roads. If a part of the road ____61____ (damage), it will be easy to remove it and replace it with another piece. The company says that nearly any type of plastic can be used ____62____ (make) the road pieces. Scientists ____63____ (work) on the project say that they are in the final stages of testing the materials for ____64____ (safe). They say that the first road built will be ______65______ bicycle path somewhere in the Netherlands. 【答案】56. challenging 57. to 58. found 59. will turn 60. that/which 61. is damaged 62. to make 63. working 64. safety 65. a 【解析】 【分析】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍用塑料垃圾修路。 【56题详解】 考查形容词。句意：塑料对我们的星球来说是个大问题。要想除掉塑料真的很有挑战性，很多塑料最终进入大自然，特别是进入海洋。该空作系动词is的表语，应使用形容词“有挑战的”。故填challenging。 57题详解】 考查介词。句意：在那里，它对我们的动物和植物有威胁。固定搭配a threat to sb./sth.“对……的威胁”。故填to。 【58题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：现在，一家来自西欧小国荷兰的公司表示，他们将使用在海洋中发现的塑料来修路。此处与plastic是逻辑动宾关系，应使用过去分词做后置定语，表示被动。故填found。 【59题详解】 考查时态。句意：Volker Wessels会把这些塑料变成道路用的积木。根据上下文多处出现一般将来时可知，此处也是表将来的动作，应使用一般将来时。故填will turn。 【60题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：他们会像拼图一样拼凑在一起。根据句意可知，该空引导限制性定语从句并作主语，puzzle pieces是先行词，关系词在从句中做主语，应使用关系代词that/which引导。故填that/which。 【61题详解】 考查被动语态。句意：如果道路的一部分被破坏，很容易将其拆下并用另一块替换。if引导条件状语从句时，主句使用将来时，从句谓语动词使用一般现在时表将来；damage与a part of the road是逻辑动宾关系，应使用被动语态。故填is damaged。 【62题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：该公司表示，几乎任何类型的塑料都可以用来制作路砖。be used to do sth.“被用来做某事”。故填to make。 【63题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：从事该项目的科学家说，他们正处于测试材料安全性的最后阶段。work与Scientists是逻辑主谓关系，应使用现在分词作后置定语，表主动。故填working。 【64题详解】 考查名词。句意：从事该项目的科学家说，他们正处于测试材料安全性的最后阶段。该空作介词for的宾语，故用名词形式。故填safety。 【65题详解】 考查冠词。句意：他们说，第一条道路将是荷兰某个地方的自行车道。bicycle path为单数可数名词，此处表泛指，应使用不定冠词，因bicycle是以辅音音素开头的词，应使用不定冠词a。故填a。 【点睛】if引导的条件状语从句，有“主将从现”特点，即主句是将来时，从句是一般现在时。例如第6小题：If a part of the road ____6____ (damage), it will be easy to remove it and replace it with another piece.这句if引导的从句用一般现在时，道路和破坏之间应为被动，故填is damaged。 第四部分：写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节 书面表达（满分15分） 66. 针对目前学生们不重视体育锻炼的现象，你校英文报正在开展征文活动。请你写一篇文章投稿，内容包括：1.描述现状；2.论述观点；3.提出建议。 注意:1写作词数应为80个左右；2请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Reviving the Passion for Sports with Students _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Reviving the Passion for Sports with Students Currently, many students attach little importance to doing sports due to heavy study schedules and lack of motivation for exercise.

Besides, working out regularly not only strengthens our willpower but also lightens our moods.

Our parents thought we were lucky to have an Olympic-size swimming pool at the school. My mom stressed that the swimming pool was one of the best in our city. But I didn’t feel happy about it at all. Instead, I felt afraid of the swimming pool. It was mainly because I was terribly shy. I was so shy that I always sat at the back of the room in class so I’d not be called upon to read. As for the present physical education class each Monday morning, I would work my way to the back of the line forming at the diving board so I would not have to practice the dives. Now, it was another Monday morning - the morning of our diving test. My blood ran cold when the teacher Ms. Robbins announced that we would be graded for our final on the most difficult dive- the jackknife. And she added, “This diving test is important. The one who fails has to spare time in the following Monday mornings to practice diving in this swimming pool and attend this test again.” My body kept shaking with fear as the line to the scary diving board shortened. As I watched, each student seemed to perform the challenging dive effortlessly. And shortly I would have to attempt something that I had never even practiced before. Then I remembered someone telling me that when you picture yourself doing a skill over and over, it’s just as effective as physically practicing that skill. So I watched carefully as each classmate jumped at the end of the board once, added a jump for height, folded their body in half to reach for their toes, and finally straightened out like an arrow for going into the water. After carefully watching for a while, I was actually in a state of surprise, because all of a sudden I realized that it was possible for me to perform these four steps of diving. Eventually all classmates except me finished jumping. The teacher announced that it was my turn. 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。 With my heart knocking wildly, I walked down the diving board towards its end. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Knowing I failed, I climbed out of the pool, embarrassed. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: With my heart knocking wildly, I walked down the diving board towards its end. Looking down, I found all my classmates were looking up at me. My face suddenly felt hot. Finally, I ignored them. Picturing the four steps of diving, I jumped. Then I folded my body but failed to reach for my toes. And instead of entering the water like an arrow, I fell into the water, with my body being flat. As a result, it caused a huge sound, which made all the classmates burst out laughing. Knowing I failed, I climbed out of the pool, embarrassed. After class, Ms. Robbins comforted and encouraged me. In the following many Monday mornings, I practiced again and again under her guidance. Gradually, I became more confident and less shy. Finally, I attended the diving test again and performed well. This time, my classmates cheered and clapped. I was so glad. I knew my success resulted from my beating my shyness and my hard practice. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者害怕游泳池。这主要是因为自己非常害羞。这天老师宣布要进行考试，而且要根据最难的跳水动作进行期末评分，虽然作者最后失败了，但在老师的鼓励下再次参加了潜水考试，并取得了很好的成绩。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我的心狂跳着，走下跳板，走向跳板的尽头。”可知，第一段可描写作者参加考试的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“知道自己失败了，我尴尬地爬出了游泳池。”可知，第二段可描写作者在老师鼓励下再次参加考试。 2.续写线索：跳水——失败——安慰——指导——参赛——自信——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 未能：fail to/be unable to 导致：cause/lead to 参加：attend /take part in 情绪类 尴尬：embarrassed / abashed 高兴：glad /delighted 【点睛】[高分句型1] Looking down, I found all my classmates were looking up at me.
