B One of China’s first female sea-rescue pilots looks back in pride at 300-plus missions and promises to save more lives. When the perfect storm brews(酝酿) over the boundless sea and lives are in danger, a crew of highly trained professionals embarks on a mission impossible to search for and rescue survivors from the rough waters. Wan Qiuwen is one of them. And, she’s a woman. The 36-year-old from Shanghai has broken the glass ceiling to become one of China’s first two female rescue helicopter pilots who respond to search and rescue missions involving cargo ship snags (货船遇险), vessel accidents, medical emergencies and special marine operations. The demanding nature of the profession had always favored male candidates until the rules were changed for the first and only time. She says, “Rescue at sea can be both challenging and terrifying. If you don’t think and act fast, people may die.” On Aug 20,2020, an oil tanker ferrying 3,000 metric tons of gasoline collided with a cargo ship loaded with sand and gravel about 1.5 nautical miles (2,778 meters) southeast of the Yangtze River estuary, sparking a fire on the deck of the oil tanker and causing the latter to sink. Wan was among the first respondents. She flew to the site from Gaodong helicopter airport, which is the country’s first-of-its-kind marine rescue launchpad (发射台). “The tanker was still burning and there was a thick envelope of smoke, reducing visibility to near zero.” she recalls. And yet, with her sea wisdom, Wan spotted a survivor and executed a successful rescue operation. She hovered above the troubled waters for a couple of minutes to estimate the best extraction point, and then threw down a rope and pulled up a seriously injured crew member. Now, a mother of a boy, when people ask her if she will continue to fly once her child grows up, Wan’s response is affirmative. “This profession is about saving lives and I am a rescue pilot, once and always.” 4. What do the underlined words “broken the glass ceiling” probably mean? A. Winning wide praise. B. Making a personal breakthrough. C. Disobeying rules of her career. D. Breaking barriers preventing women’s advancement. 5. Which of the following best describe Wan Qiuwen? A. Courageous and creative. B. Professional and determined. C. Conservative and hardworking. D. Responsible and self-disciplined. 6. What can be learned from the accident happening on August 20, 2020? A. It is visible for Wan to see clearly the site from the sky. B. Both the oil tanker and the cargo ship sank after collision. C. During the rescue, Wan threw down a rope without hesitation. D Before taking rescue action Wan made a judgement on the situation. 7. What is the purpose of the passage? A. To call on more people to be a sea-rescue pilot. B. To inform the risks of becoming a sea-rescue pilot. C. To introduce an exceptional woman sea-rescue pilot. D. To educate people the meaning of breaking through gender prejudice. C Electric vehicles (EVs) are a strong weapon in the world's efforts against global warming. But the effects of EVs depend on what country you are in. In some nations, electric vehicles lead to the release of more carbon gasses than gasoline cars, new research shows. The Radiant Energy Group (REG) compared gas emissions caused by a gasoline vehicle and from charging an electric vehicle. The study compared the emissions caused by charging a Tesla Model 3 to drive 100 kilometers with the emissions coming from an average gasoline car driven the same distance. Countries where charging an electric vehicle is cleaner than driving a gasoline-powered car use a lot of hydroelectric, nuclear or solar power. Sales of electric cars are rising the fastest in Europe. Data from REG suggests that EVs in Poland and Kosovo actually create more carbon emissions because their electric systems depend so much on coal. In other European countries, however, EVs result in reduced emissions. The carbon gas reduction depends on what energy supplies electricity systems and the time of day vehicles are charged. The countries with the biggest carbon gas savings from EVs use a lot of nuclear and hydroelectric power. An EV driver in Germany reduces greenhouse gas emissions by 55 percent over a gasoline car. Germany uses a mix of renewable energy and coal to produce electricity. Germany and Spain create a lot of electricity from the sun and wind. But the sun and wind do not add to a country's electricity system equally throughout the day. For this reason, the amount of carbon emissions saved by driving an EV depends on the time of day it is being charged. Charging in the afternoon, when there is more sun and wind, saves 16 to 18 percent more carbon than at night when electricity systems are more likely to be using gas or coal. Automakers including General Motors, Stellantis and Volkswagen have set targets to sell mainly electric vehicles in Europe in the coming years. U.S. car manufacturer General Motors said it will have all new electric cars by 2022. 8. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A. The amount of carbon emissions saved by EVs depends on the source of electricity used for charging. B. Charging EVs during daylight hours with renewable energy sources can cause more carbon savings. C. The time of day when EVs are charged can significantly affect their carbon footprint. D. General Motors plans to sell only gasoline-powered cars by 2022 in the United States. 9. What can be inferred from the fact that car manufacturers like General Motors, Stellantis, and Volkswagen have set targets to sell mainly electric vehicles in Europe? A. The demand for EVs in Europe is expected to decrease in the near future. B. These manufacturers believe that EVs will become the norm in Europe in the coming years. C. Europe has banned the sale of gasoline-powered cars entirely. D. These manufacturers are not confident in the long-term viability of EVs. 10. Based on the information in the passage, which of the following is a potential challenge for the widespread adoption of EVs? A. The limited range of EVs compared to gasoline-powered cars. B. The high initial cost of EVs compared to traditional vehicles. C. The inconsistency of renewable energy sources for EV charging. D. The lack of charging stations in rural areas. 11. Which of the following would be the most suitable title for the passage? A. The Environmental Impact of Electric Vehicle Charging. B. The Global Shift to Electric Vehicle Adoption. C. The Economics of Electric Vehicle Ownership. D. The Future of Renewable Energy in Automobiles. D A role shift—whether a promotion, a move to a new organization, or a fresh challenge in your existing job—can be a huge boost to your career and a chance for you to succeed. You know the drill heading in: Apply your experience and talents to the position, make sure you are accepted by the hierarchy (高层), and get a few big wins in the first couple of months to demonstrate what you can do. But in today’s hyper-collaborative and dynamic workplaces, successful moves aren’t as easy as they once were, even for the most qualified and hard-working people. Too often, transitional managers and employees don’t live up to their organizations’ expectations. Gartner surveys indicate that a full 49% of people promoted within their own companies are underperforming up to 18 months after those moves, and McKinsey reports that 27% to 46% of transitional executives are regarded as failures or disappointments two years later. They have the right skills and experience. They understand the company’s goals. So why didn’t they quickly excel in their new roles? We analyzed employee relationships and communication patterns across more than 100 diverse companies and interviewed 160 executives in 20 of them. Our research points to one overlooked prerequisite (先决条件) for transition success: the effective use of internal networks. The people who are the most productive, innovative, and engaged in new roles — the “fast movers” — are those who establish extremely broad, mutually beneficial, uplifting connections from the start. Specifically, they surge rapidly into a broad network; identify how they add value, where they fall short, and who can fill the gaps; create scale; and shape their networks for maximum thriving. In most cases, individual managers must do these things on their own. Only 43% of people surveyed said their organizations ensured that transitional employees were offered guidance and support. Only about a quarter said their employers encouraged them to build connections early or create networks to address skill gaps. But that should not be the case. 12. What does the author say about job moves in today’s society? A. They are a boost to our career. B. They require ability demonstration. C. They may not produce good results. D. They need to be guided by managers. 13. Why didn’t transitional executives succeed in their new roles? A. They are inexperienced. B. They lack the needed skills. C. They misunderstand the company’s goals. D. They fail to use internal networks effectively. 14. How does the author make his points convincing? A. By using exact numbers. B. By conducting surveys. C. By making contrasts. D. By listing examples. 15. What does the author think of the phenomenon in the last paragraph? A It’s common. B. It’s unexpected. C. It’s acceptable. D. It’s unsurprising. 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。 How to learn a new language as an adult As humans age, unfortunately adults become a bit less adaptable than kids—and we don’t just mean physically!

After years of saving and planning, I finally started my adventure. My first stop was a small town in Italy. I arrived in the town in the late afternoon, and the golden sunlight bathed the ancient buildings and narrow streets. I checked into a cozy little hotel and immediately went out to explore. The town was filled with charming cafes, small boutiques, and friendly locals. I spent hours wandering through the streets, taking in the sights and sounds. The next day, I decided to visit a nearby vineyard (葡萄园). I rented a bike and went through the beautiful countryside. The vineyard was a sight to enjoy, with rows upon rows of grapevines as far as the eye could see. I spent the day learning about wine-making and sampling delicious wines. On my third day, I met a local artist named Marco. He invited me to his studio and showed me his amazing paintings. We spent the afternoon chatting and sharing stories. Later that week, I joined a cooking class and learned to make traditional Italian pasta. It was a messy but fun experience. One evening, as I was sitting in a piazza, enjoying an ice cream, I noticed a group of musicians playing. The music was so beautiful that it brought tears to my eyes. A few days later, I decided to move on to my next destination. I said goodbye to the town and the people I had met, but I knew that this place would always hold a special place in my heart. I took a train to the next city, but when I arrived at the station, I realized that I had lost my wallet. I searched everywhere but couldn’t find it. I was starting to panic. I had no money, no credit cards, and no way to pay for a place to stay. What should I do? 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Just as I was feeling completely hopeless, a kind stranger came to me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With his help, I finally found my wallet and continued my journey. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 南宁二中2023级高二年级12月联考 英语试卷 本试卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟 注意事项： 1.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写清楚，将条形码准确粘贴在条形码区域内。 2.选择题必须使用2B铅笔填涂；非选择题必须使用0.5毫米黑色字迹的签字笔书写，字体工整、笔迹清楚。 3.请按照题号顺序在各题目的答题区域内作答，超出答题区书写的答案无效；在草稿纸、试题卷上答题无效。 4.保持卡面清洁，不要折叠、不要弄破、弄皱，不准使用涂改液、修正带、刮纸刀。 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。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.

When the perfect storm brews(酝酿) over the boundless sea and lives are in danger, a crew of highly trained professionals embarks on a mission impossible to search for and rescue survivors from the rough waters. Wan Qiuwen is one of them. And, she’s a woman. The 36-year-old from Shanghai has broken the glass ceiling to become one of China’s first two female rescue helicopter pilots who respond to search and rescue missions involving cargo ship snags (货船遇险), vessel accidents, medical emergencies and special marine operations. The demanding nature of the profession had always favored male candidates until the rules were changed for the first and only time. She says, “Rescue at sea can be both challenging and terrifying. If you don’t think and act fast, people may die.” On Aug 20,2020, an oil tanker ferrying 3,000 metric tons of gasoline collided with a cargo ship loaded with sand and gravel about 1.5 nautical miles (2,778 meters) southeast of the Yangtze River estuary, sparking a fire on the deck of the oil tanker and causing the latter to sink. Wan was among the first respondents. She flew to the site from Gaodong helicopter airport, which is the country’s first-of-its-kind marine rescue launchpad (发射台). “The tanker was still burning and there was a thick envelope of smoke, reducing visibility to near zero.” she recalls. And yet, with her sea wisdom, Wan spotted a survivor and executed a successful rescue operation. She hovered above the troubled waters for a couple of minutes to estimate the best extraction point, and then threw down a rope and pulled up a seriously injured crew member. Now, a mother of a boy, when people ask her if she will continue to fly once her child grows up, Wan’s response is affirmative. “This profession is about saving lives and I am a rescue pilot, once and always.” 4. What do the underlined words “broken the glass ceiling” probably mean? A Winning wide praise. B. Making a personal breakthrough. C. Disobeying rules of her career. D. Breaking barriers preventing women’s advancement. 5. Which of the following best describe Wan Qiuwen? A. Courageous and creative. B. Professional and determined. C. Conservative and hardworking. D. Responsible and self-disciplined. 6. What can be learned from the accident happening on August 20, 2020? A. It is visible for Wan to see clearly the site from the sky. B. Both the oil tanker and the cargo ship sank after collision. C. During the rescue, Wan threw down a rope without hesitation. D. Before taking rescue action Wan made a judgement on the situation. 7. What is the purpose of the passage? A. To call on more people to be a sea-rescue pilot. B. To inform the risks of becoming a sea-rescue pilot. C. To introduce an exceptional woman sea-rescue pilot. D. To educate people the meaning of breaking through gender prejudice. 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. D 7.

But the effects of EVs depend on what country you are in. In some nations, electric vehicles lead to the release of more carbon gasses than gasoline cars, new research shows. The Radiant Energy Group (REG) compared gas emissions caused by a gasoline vehicle and from charging an electric vehicle. The study compared the emissions caused by charging a Tesla Model 3 to drive 100 kilometers with the emissions coming from an average gasoline car driven the same distance. Countries where charging an electric vehicle is cleaner than driving a gasoline-powered car use a lot of hydroelectric, nuclear or solar power. Sales of electric cars are rising the fastest in Europe. Data from REG suggests that EVs in Poland and Kosovo actually create more carbon emissions because their electric systems depend so much on coal. In other European countries, however, EVs result in reduced emissions. The carbon gas reduction depends on what energy supplies electricity systems and the time of day vehicles are charged. The countries with the biggest carbon gas savings from EVs use a lot of nuclear and hydroelectric power. An EV driver in Germany reduces greenhouse gas emissions by 55 percent over a gasoline car. Germany uses a mix of renewable energy and coal to produce electricity. Germany and Spain create a lot of electricity from the sun and wind. But the sun and wind do not add to a country's electricity system equally throughout the day. For this reason, the amount of carbon emissions saved by driving an EV depends on the time of day it is being charged. Charging in the afternoon, when there is more sun and wind, saves 16 to 18 percent more carbon than at night when electricity systems are more likely to be using gas or coal. Automakers including General Motors, Stellantis and Volkswagen have set targets to sell mainly electric vehicles in Europe in the coming years. U.S. car manufacturer General Motors said it will have all new electric cars by 2022. 8. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A. The amount of carbon emissions saved by EVs depends on the source of electricity used for charging. B. Charging EVs during daylight hours with renewable energy sources can cause more carbon savings. C. The time of day when EVs are charged can significantly affect their carbon footprint. D. General Motors plans to sell only gasoline-powered cars by 2022 in the United States. 9. What can be inferred from the fact that car manufacturers like General Motors, Stellantis, and Volkswagen have set targets to sell mainly electric vehicles in Europe? A. The demand for EVs in Europe is expected to decrease in the near future. B. These manufacturers believe that EVs will become the norm in Europe in the coming years. C. Europe has banned the sale of gasoline-powered cars entirely. D. These manufacturers are not confident in the long-term viability of EVs. 10. Based on the information in the passage, which of the following is a potential challenge for the widespread adoption of EVs? A. The limited range of EVs compared to gasoline-powered cars. B. The high initial cost of EVs compared to traditional vehicles. C. The inconsistency of renewable energy sources for EV charging. D. The lack of charging stations in rural areas. 11. Which of the following would be the most suitable title for the passage? A. The Environmental Impact of Electric Vehicle Charging. B. The Global Shift to Electric Vehicle Adoption. C. The Economics of Electric Vehicle Ownership. D. The Future of Renewable Energy in Automobiles. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了电动汽车被认为是对抗全球气候变暖的一个重要利器，但是科学研究发现电动汽车因为对电车进行充电的可再生能源的不一致性而并不能做到真正的环保。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。最后一段提到“Automakers including General Motors, Stellantis and Volkswagen have set targets to sell mainly electric vehicles in Europe in the coming years. U.S. car manufacturer General Motors said it will have all new electric cars by 2022.”（美国汽车制造商通用汽车表示，到2022年，它将推出所有新的电动汽车。）通用汽车在2022年的时候会推出新的电动汽车，而不是只售卖汽油车，D项表述错误。故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。第四段第一句提到“Sales of electric cars are rising the fastest in Europe.”（电动汽车的销量在欧洲增长最快。）第五段第一句提到“In other European countries, however, EVs result in reduced emissions. ”（然而，在其他欧洲国家，电动汽车减少了排放。）第六段第一句提到“The countries with the biggest carbon gas savings from EVs use a lot of nuclear and hydroelectric power. ”（从电动汽车中节省碳气体最多的国家使用了大量的核能和水力发电。）在第六段和第七段中提到德国和西班牙利用太阳能和风能来发电。综合判断，许多汽车制造商选择欧洲作为电动汽车的主要销售场所是因为欧洲国家能够比较好地运用核能、太阳能和风能等对电车进行充电，这些欧洲国家的电动车又减少了碳排放，对于环境的影响也比较小，因此很多欧洲国家也会大力推行电车的使用，使用电车将会成为一些欧洲国家的常态。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。第四段第二句提到“Data from REG suggests that EVs in Poland and Kosovo actually create more carbon emissions because their electric systems depend so much on coal.”（来自REG的数据表明，波兰和科索沃的电动汽车实际上产生了更多的碳排放，因为他们的电力系统严重依赖煤炭。）第六段第一句提到“The countries with the biggest carbon gas savings from EVs use a lot of nuclear and hydroelectric power.”（从电动汽车中节省碳气体最多的国家使用了大量的核能和水力发电。）第七段第一句提到“Germany and Spain create a lot of electricity from the sun and wind.”（德国和西班牙利用太阳能和风能发电。）由此判断，即使都是使用的电车，但是电力转换系统却不一致，有些国家甚至使用煤炭进行电力转换，从而导致了更严重的碳排放，而使用核能、太阳能、风能等电力转换的国家相对碳排放会较少，因此电动汽车能被广泛使用的一个潜在的挑战就是进行充电的可再生能源的不一致性。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。第一段提到“Electric vehicles (EVs) are a strong weapon in the world's efforts against global warming. But the effects of EVs depend on what country you are in. In some nations, electric vehicles lead to the release of more carbon gasses than gasoline cars, new research shows.”（电动汽车(ev)是全球对抗全球变暖的有力武器。但电动汽车的影响取决于你在哪个国家。一项新的研究表明，在一些国家，电动汽车比汽油汽车排放更多的碳气体。）综合后文提到波兰、科索沃的电动汽车因使用煤炭转换成电力而产生更多碳排放以及德国、西班牙使用更清洁的能源进行充电等的对比，都说明了电车充电对于环境的影响。A项“The Environmental Impact of Electric Vehicle Charging.”（电动车充电对环境的影响。）A项符合文意。故选A。 D A role shift—whether a promotion, a move to a new organization, or a fresh challenge in your existing job—can be a huge boost to your career and a chance for you to succeed. You know the drill heading in: Apply your experience and talents to the position, make sure you are accepted by the hierarchy (高层), and get a few big wins in the first couple of months to demonstrate what you can do. But in today’s hyper-collaborative and dynamic workplaces, successful moves aren’t as easy as they once were, even for the most qualified and hard-working people. Too often, transitional managers and employees don’t live up to their organizations’ expectations. Gartner surveys indicate that a full 49% of people promoted within their own companies are underperforming up to 18 months after those moves, and McKinsey reports that 27% to 46% of transitional executives are regarded as failures or disappointments two years later. They have the right skills and experience. They understand the company’s goals. So why didn’t they quickly excel in their new roles? We analyzed employee relationships and communication patterns across more than 100 diverse companies and interviewed 160 executives in 20 of them. Our research points to one overlooked prerequisite (先决条件) for transition success: the effective use of internal networks. The people who are the most productive, innovative, and engaged in new roles — the “fast movers” — are those who establish extremely broad, mutually beneficial, uplifting connections from the start. Specifically, they surge rapidly into a broad network; identify how they add value, where they fall short, and who can fill the gaps; create scale; and shape their networks for maximum thriving. In most cases, individual managers must do these things on their own. Only 43% of people surveyed said their organizations ensured that transitional employees were offered guidance and support. Only about a quarter said their employers encouraged them to build connections early or create networks to address skill gaps. But that should not be the case. 12. What does the author say about job moves in today’s society? A. They are a boost to our career. B. They require ability demonstration. C. They may not produce good results. D. They need to be guided by managers. 13. Why didn’t transitional executives succeed in their new roles? A. They are inexperienced. B. They lack the needed skills. C. They misunderstand the company’s goals. D. They fail to use internal networks effectively. 14. How does the author make his points convincing? A. By using exact numbers. B. By conducting surveys. C. By making contrasts. D. By listing examples. 15. What does the author think of the phenomenon in the last paragraph? A. It’s common. B. It’s unexpected. C. It’s acceptable. D. It’s unsurprising. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是议论文。本文通过讨论职场角色转变的挑战，特别是晋升或转职后如何在新角色中快速适应并取得成功的问题，提出了有效运用内部网络是先决条件的观点。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“But in today’s hyper-collaborative and dynamic workplaces, successful moves aren’t as easy as they once were, even for the most qualified and hard-working people. Too often, transitional managers and employees don’t live up to their organizations’ expectations. Gartner surveys indicate that a full 49% of people promoted within their own companies are underperforming up to 18 months after those moves, and McKinsey reports that 27% to 46% of transitional executives are regarded as failures or disappointments two years later.(但在当今高度协作和动态变化的工作场所中，即使是最有能力和最勤奋的人，成功地进行职位变动也不像过去那样容易了。通常情况下，过渡期的经理和员工都达不到组织的期望。高德纳（Gartner）的调查显示，有49%的人在公司内部晋升后，在变动后的18个月内表现不佳，而麦肯锡（McKinsey）报告称，两年后，有27%到46%的过渡期高管被视为失败或令人失望)”可知，作者认为在当今高度协作和动态的工作场所，即使是最有资格和最勤奋的人，成功的工作变动也不像以前那么容易，工作变动可能不会产生好的结果。故选C项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“We analyzed employee relationships and communication patterns across more than 100 diverse companies and interviewed 160 executives in 20 of them. Our research points to one overlooked prerequisite (先决条件) for transition success: the effective use of internal networks.(我们分析了100多家不同公司的员工关系和交流模式，并对其中20家公司的160名高管进行了采访。我们的研究指出了成功过渡的一个被忽视的前提条件：有效利用内部网络)”可知，成功转型的先决条件是有效利用内部网络，而转型高管没有成功利用内部网络，因此他们在新角色中没有取得成功。故选D项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“We analyzed employee relationships and communication patterns across more than 100 diverse companies and interviewed 160 executives in 20 of them.Our research points to one overlooked prerequisite (先决条件) for transition success: the effective use of internal networks.(我们分析了100多家不同公司的员工关系和交流模式，并对其中20家公司的160名高管进行了采访。我们的研究指出了成功过渡的一个被忽视的前提条件：有效利用内部网络)”可知，作者通过进行调查来使他的观点更有说服力。故选B项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“In most cases, individual managers must do these things on their own. Only 43% of people surveyed said their organizations ensured that transitional employees were offered guidance and support. Only about a quarter said their employers encouraged them to build connections early or create networks to address skill gaps. But that should not be the case.(在大多数情况下，单个管理者必须自己去做这些事情。只有43%的受访者表示，他们的组织确保为过渡期的员工提供指导和支持。只有大约四分之一的人表示，他们的雇主鼓励他们尽早建立联系或创建网络来弥补技能差距。但情况不应该如此)”可知，作者在最后一段中提到“但情况不应该是这样”，这表明作者对于大多数情况下，单个管理者必须自己完成这些事情感到意外，因此可以推断出作者认为这个现象是出人意料的。故B项。 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。 How to learn a new language as an adult As humans age, unfortunately adults become a bit less adaptable than kids—and we don’t just mean physically!

After years of saving and planning, I finally started my adventure. My first stop was a small town in Italy. I arrived in the town in the late afternoon, and the golden sunlight bathed the ancient buildings and narrow streets. I checked into a cozy little hotel and immediately went out to explore. The town was filled with charming cafes, small boutiques, and friendly locals. I spent hours wandering through the streets, taking in the sights and sounds. The next day, I decided to visit a nearby vineyard (葡萄园). I rented a bike and went through the beautiful countryside. The vineyard was a sight to enjoy, with rows upon rows of grapevines as far as the eye could see. I spent the day learning about wine-making and sampling delicious wines. On my third day, I met a local artist named Marco. He invited me to his studio and showed me his amazing paintings. We spent the afternoon chatting and sharing stories. Later that week, I joined a cooking class and learned to make traditional Italian pasta. It was a messy but fun experience. One evening, as I was sitting in a piazza, enjoying an ice cream, I noticed a group of musicians playing. The music was so beautiful that it brought tears to my eyes. A few days later, I decided to move on to my next destination. I said goodbye to the town and the people I had met, but I knew that this place would always hold a special place in my heart. I took a train to the next city, but when I arrived at the station, I realized that I had lost my wallet. I searched everywhere but couldn’t find it. I was starting to panic. I had no money, no credit cards, and no way to pay for a place to stay. What should I do? 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Just as I was feeling completely hopeless, a kind stranger came to me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With his help, I finally found my wallet and continued my journey. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Just as I was feeling completely hopeless, a kind stranger came to me. The kind stranger offered to help me find my wallet. He asked me where I had last seen it and suggested we retrace my steps. I told him whatever I had remembered. Together, we went back to the places that I had visited. As we walked, he shared stories about the town, which distracted me from my worry. Finally, we reached the piazza where I had enjoyed the music. There, under a bench, my wallet lay untouched. With his help, I finally found my wallet and continued my journey. Overwhelmed with gratitude, I thanked him profusely. Before parting ways, we exchanged contact information. This unexpected encounter not only saved my trip but also gave me a newfound appreciation for the kindness of strangers. With renewed confidence, I set off to explore more of this beautiful country, knowing that even if challenges arose, there were always good people willing to lend a hand. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者开始自己环游世界的冒险，经历了几天的美好经历。作者坐火车去往下一个城市，但当到达车站时，作者意识到自己的钱包丢了，作者感到绝望。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“那位好心的陌生人主动提出帮我找钱包。”可知，第一段可描写好心人帮助作者找钱包的过程，最终找到钱包。 ②由第二段首句内容“在他的帮助下，我终于找到了钱包，继续我的旅程。”可知，第二段可描写作者感觉感激，并继续自己的旅程。 2.续写线索：好心人主动帮忙——回去找钱包——找到钱包——作者感激——作者的感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①询问：ask/inquire ②欣赏：enjoy/appreciate ③帮助某人：lend sb. a hand/do sb. a favor 情绪类 ①担忧：worry/ concern ②感激：gratitude/thankfulness 【点睛】【高分句型1】As we walked, he shared stories about the town, which distracted me from my worry.(运用了as引导的时间状语从句，which引导的非限制性定语从句) 【高分句型2】Finally, we reached the piazza where I had enjoyed the music.(运用了where引导的限制性定语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
