These are some of the best popular science books for children, which should keep the young minds full of ideas long into the future. Amazing Jellyfish This book includes plenty of impressive facts. The first-person style of the author helps to keep the attention of young readers, by including personal stories and avoiding all pages of words. Each part is divided into detailed drawings and valuable information. The book has fun jokes about jellyfish, a maze (迷宫) with sea trash, and more. A Brief History of Stuff DK has chosen a mix of many different things for this unique book. From baby bottles to pens, there isn’t much of a logical (合乎逻辑) path or timeline, making it a great book for kids of all ages. Seeing a list of everyday items such as a pot or a fridge, you realize how little you know about the stories behind them. This book has all the information you need about their beginnings and impact on society. A Kid’s Guide to the Night Sky The night sky is filled with countless astronomical objects to explore and this book does its best to introduce a wide variety of them to children. The life cycle of stars and light pollution are just a few of the topics that the book introduces to its audience. It also takes a deep div e into each of the solar system’s planets and some of the amazing technology that’s working to find out more about them. Radar (雷达) and the Raft The story of radar, along with the inventors and contributing scientists, comes together in this book about the technology’s development and lifesaving uses. By connecting the story of the Bell family’s near-death experience at sea with the story of radar’s discovery, the author has produced an interesting and informative storyline. 21. What is a main feature of Amazing Jellyfish? A. Using a strictly scientific style. B. Presenting a clear timeline of events. C. Focusing on fun games about sea life. D. Matching the text and the picture well. 22. How do readers probably perceive A Brief History of Steff? A. A collection of famous speeches. B. An introduction to historical heroes. C. A guide to exploring common objects. D. A handbook on starting interest clubs. 23. Which book best suits young enthusiasts for astronomy? A. Amazing Jellyfish. B. Radar and the Raft. C. A Brief History of Stuff. D. A Kid’s Guide to the Night Sky. B I went into our laboratory feeling depressed. For months, I had been trying to recycle some of our laboratory’s plastic waste into 3D-printed laboratory tools, but it wasn’t going well. My colleagues suggested thinking about how to avoid having so much plastic waste in the first place, which boosted my spirits and led to a series of changes in how we operate in the laboratory. I raised the idea of creating 3D-printed laboratory tools out of some of our waste, but it was also tricky to get the recycled material into a consistent shape that could be fed into the 3D printer. After months of struggling, I feared that my vision might not live up to my expectations, so it was really a welcome relief when my colleagues were eager to brainstorm other ways to reduce our environmental footprint. We decided to create a group sticking to pushing for “greener” ways to operate, inviting researchers in other laboratories at our institution as well as our own. Over the following months, we launched a series of initiatives that we feel have made a difference. We introduced new recycling bins to each laboratory, designed ways to reduce our use of plastic items and purchased meters to track the energy consumption of various pieces of laboratory equipment. That helped us create rules for each device, which we outlined on stickers: “Turn me off at the end of the day,” “Never turn me off,” or “Turn me off if empty or not in use.” We also increased the temperature of several low-temperature freezers after realizing some samples didn’t have to be stored so cold. I’m still disappointed that I was not able to fully realize my 3D-printing vision, and I am committed enough to keep trying. But I’ve also learned that if one approach isn’t working, sometimes it’s best to take a step back and look for other solutions. I’m thankful that with the help of the academic community around me, we were able to do that. 24. Why was the author upset for months? A. His lab tools were outdated. B. He failed to realize his vision. C. His idea was denied by co-workers. D. He produced too much plastic waste. 25. Why did researchers put stickers on the devices? A. To identify the ownership. B. To decorate the equipment. C. To give energy-saving reminders. D. To offer cost-efficient approaches. 26. What will the author probably do in the future? A. Develop new 3D printers. B. Seek a greener laboratory. C. Quit 3D-printing research. D. Pursue an academic degree. 27. What can we learn from the text? A. One tree cannot make a forest. B. Actions speak louder than words. C. A friend in need is a friend indeed. D. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart. C How’s this for a coincidence (巧合)? Charles Darwin and Abraham Lincoln were born in the same year, on the same day: Feb. 12, 1809. Although people hardly think of them together, yet we want to say that they belong together. It’s not just because they were both great men, and not because they happen to live at the same time. Rather, it’s because the scientist and the politician each started a revolution that changed the world. They were both revolutionaries in the sense that both men changed the realities when they were born. They seem and sound modern to us, because the world they left behind them is more or less the one we still live in. So, considering the joint greatness of their contributions and the coincidence of their birthdays ---- it is hard to wonder: who was the greatest man? It’s an apples and oranges--- or Superman vs. Santa---comparison. But if you limit the question to influence, very quickly the balance tips in Lincoln’s favor. As great as his book on evolution is, it does no harm to remember that Darwin hurried to publish The Origin of Species because he thought he was about to be scooped (抢先) by his fellow naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace. Lincoln, however, is unique. True, his election as the president did cause the recession (衰退) and the war, but that war seems certain to happen---not a question of if but when. Certainly we know what happened after he was murdered: Reconstruction was organized and then abandoned, leaving the issue of racial (种族的) equality unsolved for another century. Surely we should not deny Darwin’s accomplishment. But their same birthdays gave us a great opportunity to observe these men of their time. 28. Why does the author say Charles Darwin and Abraham Lincoln belong together? A. They were born on the same day. B. They lived in the same period of time. C. They started revolutions changing the world. D. They were both great men in the history. 29. What does the author mean by “an apples and oranges---- or Superman vs. Santa --comparison” ? A. It is hard to tell which one is greater as they are both outstanding. B. The comparison between Darwin and Lincoln is easy and obvious. C. It is difficult to compare them as they are as famous as Superman and Santa. D. There is no point comparing them because they were born on the same day. 30. Lincoln’s contribution to the world can be best described as__________ A. narrow. B. aggressive. C. independent. D. ground-breaking. 31. What can we learn from the passage? A. Lincoln’s success in election caused reconstruction. B. Lincoln had tried to solve the racial problem. C. Darwin was unique compared with Lincoln. D. Darwin’s theory is similar to Lincoln’s belief. D Recent developments in robotics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning have brought us in the eye of the storm of a new automation age. About half of the work carried out by people was likely to be automated by 2055 with adaption to technology, a McKinsey Global Institute report predicted. Automation can enable businesses to improve performance by reducing errors and improving quality and speed, and in some cases achieving outcomes that go beyond human capabilities. At a time of weak productivity growth worldwide, automation technologies can provide the much-needed promotion of economic growth, according to the report. Automation could raise productivity growth globally by 0.8 percent to 1.4 percent. At a global level, technically automated activities involved 1.1 billion employees and 11.9 trillion U.S. dollars in wages, the report said. The report also showed that activities most influenced by automation were physical ones in highly structured and predictable environments, as well as data collection and processing. In the United States, these activities make up 51 percent of activities in the economy, accounting for almost 2.7 trillion dollars in wages. They are most common in production, accommodation and food service, and the retail (零售) trade. And it’s not just low-skill, low-wage work that is likely to be influenced by automation; middle-skill and high-paying, high-skill occupations, too, have a degree of automation potential. The robots and computers not only can perform a range of routine physical work activities better and more cheaply than humans, but are also increasingly capable of accomplishing activities that require cognitive (认知的) capabilities, such as feeling emotions or driving. While much of the current debate about automation has focused on the potential that many people may be replaced and therefore lose their financial resources, the analysis shows that humans will still be needed: The total productivity gains will only come about if people work alongside machines. 32. What is the report mainly about? A. Comparisons of robots from different countries. B. Analysis of automation’s potential in economy. C. Prediction of the unemployment problem. D. Explanations of the concept of artificial intelligence. 33. What might happen in 2055 according to the text? A. Automation will cause weak productivity growth. B. Automation will reduce employees’wages. C. Activities like data collection and processing will disappear. D. Activities involving feeling emotions can be performed by robots. 34. How does the author feel about human workers? A. Worried. B. Mixed. C. Optimistic. D. Doubtful. 35. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Automation: A future replacement for humans? B. Robots: A challenge to all humans? C. Retail trade: Where to go from here? D. Automation: Who is the eventual winner? 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。 So you want to know how to look more confident and think body language is the key?

Ms. Carson said the rest would go on the next day. “When will we get the real sets (布景)?” Kristie pointed to the cardboard castle. “These are the real sets,” Ms. Carson said, “We don’t have an art teacher this term. So that’s the best we could do.” Kristie and I walked out. I praised Kristie for her good job. I told her everyone would love the play. Kristie thanked me but she was worried about the sets.

But one night, a lady was tired of listening to the piano and asked him to sing a song. So he did. He had never sung in public before. Now he was singing for the very first time! Nobody had expected he could sing so beautifully! All the people present had a good time and the pianist was also very happy because he found that he could sing well. He may have lived the rest of his life as a no-name pianist in a no-name bar. Now he found, by accident, his ability to sing, so he went on working hard on singing. Later, the pianist became one of the best-known singers in the US. His name was Nat King Cole. You, too, have skills and abilities that you haven’t found. You may not feel that your talent is great, but it may be better than you think. With hard work, most skills can be improved. Besides, you may have no success at all if you do nothing about your talent. 第二部分：阅读理解 (共两节，满分40分) 第一节(共15小题； 每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项 (A、B、C和D) 中, 选出最佳选项。 A Looking to inspire curious young minds?

For months I had been trying to recycle some of our laboratory’s plastic waste into 3D-printed laboratory tools, but it wasn’t going well. My colleagues suggested thinking about how to avoid having so much plastic waste in the first place, which boosted my spirits and led to a series of changes in how we operate in the laboratory. I raised the idea of creating 3D-printed laboratory tools out of some of our waste, but it was also tricky to get the recycled material into a consistent shape that could be fed into the 3D printer. After months of struggling, I feared that my vision might not live up to my expectations, so it was really a welcome relief when my colleagues were eager to brainstorm other ways to reduce our environmental footprint. We decided to create a group sticking to pushing for “greener” ways to operate, inviting researchers in other laboratories at our institution as well as our own. Over the following months, we launched a series of initiatives that we feel have made a difference. We introduced new recycling bins to each laboratory, designed ways to reduce our use of plastic items and purchased meters to track the energy consumption of various pieces of laboratory equipment. That helped us create rules for each device, which we outlined on stickers: “Turn me off at the end of the day,” “Never turn me off,” or “Turn me off if empty or not in use.” We also increased the temperature of several low-temperature freezers after realizing some samples didn’t have to be stored so cold. I’m still disappointed that I was not able to fully realize my 3D-printing vision, and I am committed enough to keep trying. But I’ve also learned that if one approach isn’t working, sometimes it’s best to take a step back and look for other solutions. I’m thankful that with the help of the academic community around me, we were able to do that. 24. Why was the author upset for months? A. His lab tools were outdated. B. He failed to realize his vision. C. His idea was denied by co-workers. D. He produced too much plastic waste. 25. Why did researchers put stickers on the devices? A. To identify the ownership. B. To decorate the equipment. C. To give energy-saving reminders. D. To offer cost-efficient approaches. 26. What will the author probably do in the future? A. Develop new 3D printers. B. Seek a greener laboratory. C. Quit 3D-printing research. D. Pursue an academic degree. 27. What can we learn from the text? A. One tree cannot make a forest. B. Actions speak louder than words. C. A friend in need is a friend indeed. D. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart. 【答案】24. B 25. C 26. B 27. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在与同事的协作下，想出了减少碳足迹的方法。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“I went into our laboratory feeling depressed. For months, I had been trying to recycle some of our laboratory’s plastic waste into 3D-printed laboratory tools, but it wasn’t going well.(我沮丧地走进我们的实验室。几个月来，我一直在尝试将我们实验室的一些塑料垃圾回收利用成3D打印的实验室工具，但进展并不顺利)”可知，作者心烦好几个月因为他没能实现他的愿景。故选B。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“That helped us create rules for each device, which we outlined on stickers: “Turn me off at the end of the day,” “Never turn me off,” or “Turn me off if empty or not in use.”(这帮助我们为每个设备制定了规则，我们在贴纸上概述了这些规则:“在一天结束时关闭我”，“永远不要关闭我”，或者“如果空着或不用，请关闭我”)”可知，研究人员要在设备上贴贴纸是为了给予节能提醒。故选C。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“But I’ve also learned that if one approach isn’t working, sometimes it’s best to take a step back and look for other solutions.(但我也认识到，如果一种方法不起作用，有时最好是退一步，寻找其他解决方案)”可知，作者将来可能寻找更环保的实验室。故选B。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“After months of struggling, I feared that my vision might not live up to my expectations, so it was really a welcome relief when my colleagues were eager to brainstorm other ways to reduce our environmental footprint.(经过几个月的努力，我担心我的愿景可能达不到我的期望，所以当我的同事们急于集思广益，想出其他方法来减少我们的环境足迹时，我真的松了一口气)”结合文章主要讲述了作者在与同事的协作下，想出了减少碳足迹的方法。可知，文章告诉我们“一树不成林”的道理。故选A。 C How’s this for a coincidence (巧合)? Charles Darwin and Abraham Lincoln were born in the same year, on the same day: Feb. 12, 1809. Although people hardly think of them together, yet we want to say that they belong together. It’s not just because they were both great men, and not because they happen to live at the same time. Rather, it’s because the scientist and the politician each started a revolution that changed the world. They were both revolutionaries in the sense that both men changed the realities when they were born. They seem and sound modern to us, because the world they left behind them is more or less the one we still live in. So, considering the joint greatness of their contributions and the coincidence of their birthdays ---- it is hard to wonder: who was the greatest man? It’s an apples and oranges--- or Superman vs. Santa---comparison. But if you limit the question to influence, very quickly the balance tips in Lincoln’s favor. As great as his book on evolution is, it does no harm to remember that Darwin hurried to publish The Origin of Species because he thought he was about to be scooped (抢先) by his fellow naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace. Lincoln, however, is unique. True, his election as the president did cause the recession (衰退) and the war, but that war seems certain to happen---not a question of if but when. Certainly we know what happened after he was murdered: Reconstruction was organized and then abandoned, leaving the issue of racial (种族的) equality unsolved for another century. Surely we should not deny Darwin’s accomplishment. But their same birthdays gave us a great opportunity to observe these men of their time. 28. Why does the author say Charles Darwin and Abraham Lincoln belong together? A. They were born on the same day. B. They lived in the same period of time. C. They started revolutions changing the world. D. They were both great men in the history. 29. What does the author mean by “an apples and oranges---- or Superman vs. Santa --comparison” ? A. It is hard to tell which one is greater as they are both outstanding. B. The comparison between Darwin and Lincoln is easy and obvious. C. It is difficult to compare them as they are as famous as Superman and Santa. D. There is no point comparing them because they were born on the same day. 30. Lincoln’s contribution to the world can be best described as__________ A. narrow. B. aggressive. C. independent. D. ground-breaking. 31. What can we learn from the passage? A. Lincoln’s success in election caused reconstruction. B. Lincoln had tried to solve the racial problem. C. Darwin was unique compared with Lincoln. D. Darwin’s theory is similar to Lincoln’s belief. 【答案】28. C 29. A 30. D 31. B 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了同年同月同日生的达尔文和林肯的贡献，相比之下，林肯的贡献更具开创性。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“yet we want to say that they belong together. It’s not just because they were both great men, and not because they happen to live at the same time. Rather, it’s because the scientist and the politician each started a revolution that changed the world.(然而，我们想说，他们属于一起。这不仅仅是因为他们都是伟人，也不是因为他们碰巧生活在同一时代。相反，这是因为科学家和政治家各自开启了一场改变世界的革命。)”可知，达尔文和亚伯拉罕·林肯他们各自发起了一场改变世界的革命。故选C项。 【29题详解】 句意理解题。根据第二段的“So, considering the joint greatness of their contributions and the coincidence of their birthdays ---- it is hard to wonder: who was the greatest man?(因此，考虑到他们共同的伟大贡献和他们生日的巧合，很难去想:谁是最伟大的人？)”可知，作者说“这是一个苹果和橘子，或者超人和圣诞老人之间的比较”的意思是很难说他俩谁更伟大，因为他们都很杰出，故选A项。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Lincoln, however, is unique.(然而，林肯是独一无二的。) ”可知，林肯的贡献是独一无二的，也就是说林肯的贡献是开创性的，故选D项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Certainly we know what happened after he was murdered: Reconstruction was organized and then abandoned, leaving the issue of racial (种族的) equality unsolved for another century.(当然，我们知道在林肯被谋杀后发生了什么：重建被组织起来，然后被放弃，使得（林肯曾致力于解决的）种族平等这一问题在下一个世纪也没有得到解决。) ”可知，林肯曾试图解决种族问题，故选B项。 D Recent developments in robotics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning have brought us in the eye of the storm of a new automation age. About half of the work carried out by people was likely to be automated by 2055 with adaption to technology, a McKinsey Global Institute report predicted. Automation can enable businesses to improve performance by reducing errors and improving quality and speed, and in some cases achieving outcomes that go beyond human capabilities. At a time of weak productivity growth worldwide, automation technologies can provide the much-needed promotion of economic growth, according to the report. Automation could raise productivity growth globally by 0.8 percent to 1.4 percent. At a global level, technically automated activities involved 1.1 billion employees and 11.9 trillion U.S. dollars in wages, the report said. The report also showed that activities most influenced by automation were physical ones in highly structured and predictable environments, as well as data collection and processing. In the United States, these activities make up 51 percent of activities in the economy, accounting for almost 2.7 trillion dollars in wages. They are most common in production, accommodation and food service, and the retail (零售) trade. And it’s not just low-skill, low-wage work that is likely to be influenced by automation; middle-skill and high-paying, high-skill occupations, too, have a degree of automation potential. The robots and computers not only can perform a range of routine physical work activities better and more cheaply than humans, but are also increasingly capable of accomplishing activities that require cognitive (认知的) capabilities, such as feeling emotions or driving. While much of the current debate about automation has focused on the potential that many people may be replaced and therefore lose their financial resources, the analysis shows that humans will still be needed: The total productivity gains will only come about if people work alongside machines. 32. What is the report mainly about? A. Comparisons of robots from different countries. B. Analysis of automation’s potential in economy. C. Prediction of the unemployment problem. D. Explanations of the concept of artificial intelligence. 33. What might happen in 2055 according to the text? A. Automation will cause weak productivity growth. B. Automation will reduce employees’wages. C. Activities like data collection and processing will disappear. D. Activities involving feeling emotions can be performed by robots. 34. How does the author feel about human workers? A. Worried. B. Mixed. C. Optimistic. D. Doubtful. 35. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Automation: A future replacement for humans? B. Robots: A challenge to all humans? C. Retail trade: Where to go from here? D. Automation: Who is the eventual winner? 【答案】32. B 33. D 34. C 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了机器人技术、人工智能和机器学习的最新发展使我们进入新自动化时代这一背景下自动化是否会在未来取代人类。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“About half of the work carried out by people was likely to be automated by 2055 with adaption to technology, a McKinsey Global Institute report predicted. (麦肯锡全球研究所的一份报告预测，到2055年，随着技术的适应，人们所做的大约一半的工作可能会实现自动化。)”以及第三段中“The report also showed that activities most influenced by automation were physical ones in highly structured and predictable environments, as well as data collection and processing. In the United States, these activities make up 51 percent of activities in the economy, accounting for almost 2.7 trillion dollars in wages. They are most common in production, accommodation and food service, and the retail (零售) trade. And it’s not just low-skill, low-wage work that is likely to be influenced by automation; middle-skill and high-paying, high-skill occupations, too, have a degree of automation potential. (报告还显示，受自动化影响最大的活动是高度结构化和可预测环境中的体力活动，以及数据收集和处理。在美国，这些活动占经济活动的51%，占近2.7万亿美元的工资。它们在生产、住宿和食品服务以及零售业中最常见。受自动化影响的不仅仅是低技能、低工资的工作；中等技能和高薪、高技能职业也有一定程度的自动化潜力)”可知，报告主要是关于自动化在经济中的潜力分析，故选B项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The robots and computers not only can perform a range of routine physical work activities better and more cheaply than humans, but are also increasingly capable of accomplishing activities that require cognitive (认知的) capabilities, such as feeling emotions or driving. (机器人和计算机不仅能比人类更好、更廉价地执行一系列日常体力工作活动，而且也越来越有能力完成需要认知能力的活动，比如感知情绪或驾驶。)”可知，到2055年，像感受情绪这样的活动机器人也能够完成，故选D项。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“While much of the current debate about automation has focused on the potential that many people may be replaced and therefore lose their financial resources, the analysis shows that humans will still be needed: The total productivity gains will only come about if people work alongside machines. (虽然当前关于自动化的大部分争论都集中在许多人可能被取代并因此失去财务资源的可能性上，但分析表明，人类仍然是必需的：只有当人们与机器一起工作时，总生产力的提高才会实现。)”可知，作者对人类工人的前景是持乐观态度的，故选C项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Recent developments in robotics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning have brought us in the eye of the storm of a new automation age. About half of the work carried out by people was likely to be automated by 2055 with adaption to technology, a McKinsey Global Institute report predicted. (机器人技术、人工智能和机器学习的最新发展使我们处于新自动化时代的风暴中心。麦肯锡全球研究所的一份报告预测，到2055年，随着技术的适应，人们所做的大约一半的工作可能会实现自动化。)”及最后一段“While much of the current debate about automation has focused on the potential that many people may be replaced and therefore lose their financial resources, the analysis shows that humans will still be needed: The total productivity gains will only come about if people work alongside machines. (虽然当前关于自动化的大部分争论都集中在许多人可能被取代并因此失去财务资源的可能性上，但分析表明，人类仍然是必需的：只有当人们与机器一起工作时，总生产力的提高才会实现。)”可知，文章主要介绍了机器人技术、人工智能和机器学习的最新发展使我们进入新自动化时代这一背景下自动化是否会在未来取代人类，A项“Automation: A future replacement for humans? (自动化：人类的未来替代品？)”最能概括全文，故选A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。 So you want to know how to look more confident and think body language is the key?

I told her Kristie got Cinderella’s (灰姑娘) part but I, Mary, got none. I ran to my room and started drawing. Drawing always makes me feel better. The next day, Kristie was excited. But when the last bell rang, she became nervous (紧张的). She asked whether I could stay with her. I wanted to say no, but then I realized I couldn’t leave yet. My parents had signed me up for the late bus because I thought I’d be in the play. So I followed her to the hall. I sat in the third row, wishing I were in my room drawing. I saw Ms. Carson pulled a cardboard (硬纸板) castle onto the middle of the stage. It was brown with small windows and doors. After that, Ms. Carson turned on the music, and Kristie and the Prince started dancing. I had to admit, Kristie was really good. When Ms. Carson hit a piece of metal with a little stick 12 times, Kristie ran off the stage and dropped her left shoe. The curtain came down. Ms. Carson said the rest would go on the next day. “When will we get the real sets (布景)?” Kristie pointed to the cardboard castle. “These are the real sets,” Ms. Carson said, “We don’t have an art teacher this term. So that’s the best we could do.” Kristie and I walked out. I praised Kristie for her good job. I told her everyone would love the play. Kristie thanked me but she was worried about the sets. I thought for a moment. And then I decided to do something. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 I got started right away. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, opening night arrived. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】I got started right away. I spent that evening drawing. I came up with detailed and colorful designs for the sets, including a grand castle and a beautiful garden. The next day, I showed my sketches to Ms. Carson. She was thrilled and immediately decided to gather a team of students to help create them. Over the next few weeks, a group of us worked hard during our lunch breaks, cutting, painting, and assembling the sets in the art room. The excitement grew as we watched our ideas come to life. Finally, opening night arrived. The lights dimmed, and the audience fell silent as the curtain rose. The transformation was amazing. The stage was now a magical fairy tale world, with a stunning castle and vibrant scenery. Kristie performed beautifully, and the audience was enchanted. After the final bow, Ms. Carson invited me on stage and thanked me for my contribution. The applause was overwhelming, and at that moment, standing in the spotlight, I felt like a part of the show. It was a moment as special as playing Cinderella herself. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了“我”在话剧选拔中落选，但随后决定为话剧制作布景的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我马上就开始了。”可知，第一段可描写“我”立刻开始绘制布景设计，并展示给Ms. Carson看，她决定组织学生一起制作。 ②由第二段首句内容“终于，首演之夜到来了。”可知，第二段可描写话剧首演当晚的情况，包括舞台效果、Kristie的表演以及“我”受到的认可和感受。 2.续写线索： 立刻开始绘制——展示设计给Ms. Carson——组织学生制作布景——话剧首演——舞台效果惊艳——Kristie表演出色——“我”受到认可 3.词汇激活： 行为类： ①展示：show/present/display ②召集：gather/call together ③上升：rise/ascent /go up 情绪类： ①令人惊叹的：stunning/amazing/miraculous ②使入迷：enchant/charm  【点睛】[高分句型1] Over the next few weeks, a group of us worked hard during our lunch breaks, cutting, painting, and assembling the sets in the art room.
