B Eighteen-year-old David Aguilar from Andorra was born without a right forearm due to a rare genetic condition but that has never stopped him from doing anything he wanted to do including typing on a computer with his partial arm. Like most kids, David was a LEGO fan and he loved building cars, boats, planes, and motorbikes. But David also knew that he looked different and wanted to do something about it. “As a child I was very nervous to be in front of other guys, because I was different, but that didn’t stop me believing in my dreams,” David said. “I wanted to... see myself in the mirror like I see other guys, with two hands.” He loved LEGO so much that he wanted to make them a part of himself, so at the age of 9, he built his first prosthetic (假肢的) arm out of the colorful bricks. But it wasn’t particularly strong or functional. He waited until he was 18 to try again. Using LEGO pieces, David built a prosthetic arm that he called the MK1. This multipurpose prosthetic even had a way to grasp items, but David wanted to keep improving his arm and he made a few more versions. His fourth and current version is a colorful red and yellow fully functional robotic arm that has a bendable elbow joint and flexible grabber built entirely from a LEGO Technic airplane kit. All of the MK versions are on display in David’s university dorm room that is also decorated with Star Wars posters. David wants to show people that nothing is impossible even if you have a disability. David plans to create affordable prosthetics for people who need them, saying, “I would try to give them a prosthetic, even if it’s for free, to make them feel like a normal person.” 4. How did David feel when standing in front of other kids? A. Anxious. B. Natural. C. Confident. D. Frightened. 5. What was David’s attitude to his first prosthetic arm? A. Curious. B. Dissatisfied. C. Indifferent. D. Optimistic. 6. Which of the following can best describe David? A. Normal and brave. B. Weak and talented. C. Ambitious and easy-going. D. Resourceful and tough-minded. 7. What’s David’s dream? A. To be an expert in building LEGO. B. To become rich by selling prosthetic arms. C. To offer disabled people cheaper prosthetics. D. To start a company hiring more disabled people. C My eighteen-year-old daughter Julia called twenty minutes after she left, saying she had an accident. I grabbed my shoes and was in the car in less than a minute. When I finally saw her, I hugged her tightly. Then I looked at the other driver. Learning that he fell asleep behind the wheel at about seventy miles an hour when the speed limit was forty-five, I could have beaten him. “It could have been worse,” I reminded myself as she cried all the way to the doctor’s office. Luckily, four days after the accident, Julia felt better. At her appointment, her doctor cleared her to resume normal activities, including driving. But I could tell by her look that she had no intention of getting behind the wheel. Later that day, I sat with Julia as she spoke on the phone with our insurance agent. On the phone, she was professional, telling the agent what had happened in a clear, brief way. I realized she sounded like an adult. And adults drive cars. I realized that no matter how I felt about it, allowing Julia to give in to her fear wasn’t good for her. When she hung up, I hugged her. “You’re stronger than you think,” I said. “And tomorrow you’re going to drive my car and meet your friends for lunch. You just have to push through the fear and do it, and it will get easier each time you do.” I ignored the fear in her eyes and the way my heart sped up when I thought about Julia behind the wheel again. The next day, Julia drove my car to meet her friends. As I watched her leave, I felt nervous and proud. She texted me when she got to the restaurant, and I felt my heart rate return to normal. The tears I’d been holding back all week flooded my eyes. Watching her leave the house without me for the first time since the accident was frightening, but it was also necessary. 8. What was the author’s reaction to the driver’s behavior? A. She almost burst with anger. B. She felt guilty for her daughter. C. She felt sympathy for him. D. She couldn’t speak a word with sorrow. 9. What did the doctor suggest to Julia? A. Staying away from driving. B. Attending a driving lesson. C. Contacting the insurance agent. D. Retaking her routine activities. 10. What did the author realize when Julia spoke on the phone? A. The driver took the blame for the accident. B. The accident had been worse than expected. C. Julia should overcome the fear to drive. D. Julia was smart to deal with any trouble. 11. Why did the author cry at Julia’s text? A. Julia was good at learning to drive. B. Julia recovered mentally and physically. C. Julia had supportive friends and parents. D. Julia could look after herself when driving. D Students at Eindhoven University of Technology didn’t just want to build a car that wouldn’t pollute the air; they wanted to create one that could actually clean it up. The college team has just exhibited a battery-powered car that absorbs CO2. Their car, called the Zem, is equipped with a special filter (过滤器) that cleans up the CO2 produced by other cars on the road. The Zem was born out of a challenge to build a completely carbon-neutral vehicle. Its body panels (金属板) were 3D printed to reduce waste and minimize the production of CO2. Recycled plastics were also used throughout the outside and inside. The car’s powertrain, which consists of small battery packs and a 22-kWh motor, also makes use of regenerative braking to increase efficiency. The real difference maker, though, is the vehicle’s special CO2 filter. The Zem purifies (净化) the air through the special filter while driving, capturing the CO2 and storing it. It is able to absorb two kg of CO2 for 20,000 miles a year, meaning ten cars could store as much carbon dioxide as an average tree — a significant amount when considering the world’s billion cars are currently one of its leading sources of emissions. Even if the technology isn’t adopted, the team hope that their car can inspire automakers to start making cleaner vehicles. “We want to encourage the industry by showing what is already possible,” the leader of the team said. “If 35 students can design, develop and build an almost carbon-neutral car in a year, then there are also opportunities and possibilities for the industry.” The Zem is the second zero-emission vehicle we’ve seen come out of the Eindhoven University of Technology. Last year, another team of students created the Stella Vita, a solar-powered vehicle that could travel up to 450 miles a day. We can’t wait to see what the school’s students come up with next. 12. Why can the Zem absorb CO2? A. It is battery-powered. B. It has a special filter. C. It is created by using 3D printing. D. It has reusable body panels. 13. What do we know about the building of the Zem? A. It is time-consuming. B. It is financially secure. C. It is physically demanding. D. It is environmentally-friendly. 14. What can be inferred about the Zem from the fourth paragraph? A. It can capture the CO2 and dispose it. B. It is able to absorb CO2 as much as a tree. C. It has a huge potential to reduce pollution. D. It can run 20,000 miles on a single charge. 15. What does the author expect the students to do? A. Invest in research. B. Inspire confidence. C. Innovate further. D. Introduce technology. 第二节：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。 For average working people they normally change their careers five to seven times throughout their whole lives. ____16____ Without that, you are just a dreamer.

I said no without thinking. I did not love writing. My family came from Brazil, so English was only my second language. Writing was so difficult and painful for me that my teacher had allowed me to present my paper on the sinking of the Titanic by acting out a play, where I played all the parts. No one laughed harder than he did. So, why did he suddenly force me to do something at which I was sure to fail? His reply: “Because I love your stories. If you’re willing to apply yourself, I think you have a good shot at this.” Encouraged by his words, I agreed to give it a try. I chose Paul Revere’s horse as my subject. Paul Revere was a silversmith (银匠) in Boston who rode a horse at night on April 18, 1775 to Lexington to warn people that British soldiers were coming. My story would come straight from the horse’s mouth. Not a brilliant idea, but funny; and unlikely to be anyone else’s choice. What did the horse think, as he sped through the night? Did he get tired? Have doubts? Did he want to quit? I sympathized immediately. I got tired. I had doubts. I wanted to quit. But, like Revere’s horse, I kept going. I worked hard. I checked my spelling. I asked my older sister to correct my grammar. I checked out a half dozen books on Paul Revere from the library. I even read a few of them. When I handed in the essay to my teacher, he read it, laughed out loud, and said, “Great. Now, write it again.” I wrote it again, and again and again. When I finally finished it, the thought of winning had given way to the enjoyment of writing. If I didn’t win, I wouldn’t care. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 A few weeks later, when I almost forgot the contest, there came the news. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I went to my teacher’s office after the award presentation. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024-2025学年第一学期高二年级第二次月考 英语试卷 （考试时间：120分钟 满分：150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.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。David天生缺少半只手臂，他用乐高积木制作能够帮助自己的假臂。David计划为有需要的人制造价格合理的假肢，希望他们过上正常人的生活。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“As a child I was very nervous to be in front of other guys, because I was different, but that didn’t stop me believing in my dreams(作为一个孩子，我在其他人面前很紧张，因为我是不同的，但这并没有阻止我相信我的梦想，)”可知，由于David天生缺少半只胳臂，所以作为孩子时，感觉自己与别人不同，他很紧张。故选A。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“But it wasn’t particularly strong or functional.( 但它不是特别强大或好用的。)”可知，David认为第一次用乐高积木制作的能够帮助自己的假臂是不令人满意的。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“He loved LEGO so much that he wanted to make them a part of himself, so at the age of 9, he built his first prosthetic (假肢的) arm out of the colorful bricks. (他非常喜欢乐高，他想让它们成为自己的一部分，所以在9岁的时候，他用五颜六色的积木制作了他的第一个假肢手臂。)”可知，David用乐高积木制作能够帮助自己的假臂说明他是足智多谋的；同时根据第四段中“He waited until he was 18 to try again. Using LEGO pieces, David built a prosthetic arm that he called the MK1. (他一直等到18岁才再次尝试。大卫用乐高积木制作了一个假肢手臂，他称之为MK1。)”可知，他从9岁的时候开始制作，经过多次改进，终于在大学时制作成功。这由此说明他是意志坚定的。故选D。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“David plans to create affordable prosthetics for people who need them, saying, “I would try to give them a prosthetic, even if it’s for free, to make them feel like a normal person.”(David计划为有需要的人制造负担得起的义肢，他说：“我会尽量给他们一个义肢，即使是免费的，让他们感觉自己像个正常人。”)”可知，David梦想是为有需要的人制造价格相对便宜的假肢，希望他们过上正常人的生活。故选C。 C My eighteen-year-old daughter Julia called twenty minutes after she left, saying she had an accident. I grabbed my shoes and was in the car in less than a minute. When I finally saw her, I hugged her tightly. Then I looked at the other driver. Learning that he fell asleep behind the wheel at about seventy miles an hour when the speed limit was forty-five, I could have beaten him. “It could have been worse,” I reminded myself as she cried all the way to the doctor’s office. Luckily, four days after the accident, Julia felt better. At her appointment, her doctor cleared her to resume normal activities, including driving. But I could tell by her look that she had no intention of getting behind the wheel. Later that day, I sat with Julia as she spoke on the phone with our insurance agent. On the phone, she was professional, telling the agent what had happened in a clear, brief way. I realized she sounded like an adult. And adults drive cars. I realized that no matter how I felt about it, allowing Julia to give in to her fear wasn’t good for her. When she hung up, I hugged her. “You’re stronger than you think,” I said. “And tomorrow you’re going to drive my car and meet your friends for lunch. You just have to push through the fear and do it, and it will get easier each time you do.” I ignored the fear in her eyes and the way my heart sped up when I thought about Julia behind the wheel again. The next day, Julia drove my car to meet her friends. As I watched her leave, I felt nervous and proud. She texted me when she got to the restaurant, and I felt my heart rate return to normal. The tears I’d been holding back all week flooded my eyes. Watching her leave the house without me for the first time since the accident was frightening, but it was also necessary. 8. What was the author’s reaction to the driver’s behavior? A. She almost burst with anger. B. She felt guilty for her daughter. C. She felt sympathy for him. D. She couldn’t speak a word with sorrow. 9. What did the doctor suggest to Julia? A. Staying away from driving. B. Attending a driving lesson. C. Contacting the insurance agent. D. Retaking her routine activities. 10. What did the author realize when Julia spoke on the phone? A. The driver took the blame for the accident. B. The accident had been worse than expected. C. Julia should overcome the fear to drive. D. Julia was smart to deal with any trouble. 11. Why did the author cry at Julia’s text? A. Julia was good at learning to drive. B. Julia recovered mentally and physically. C. Julia had supportive friends and parents. D. Julia could look after herself when driving. 【答案】8. A 9. D 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。作者十八岁的女儿经历车祸，恢复健康后，终于在作者的鼓励下，自己再次开车离开家，安全到达目的地。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“Learning that he fell asleep behind the wheel at about seventy miles an hour when the speed limit was forty-five, I could have beaten him. (当我得知他在时速70英里的时候睡着了，而限速是45英里时，我真想打他)”可知，对司机的行为作者几乎气炸了。故选A项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的“At her appointment, her doctor cleared her to resume normal activities, including driving. (在她的预约中，她的医生允许她恢复正常活动，包括开车)”可知，医生给茱莉亚提的建议是重新安排她的日常活动。故选D项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段的“I realized that no matter how I felt about it, allowing Julia to give in to her fear wasn’t good for her. When she hung up, I hugged her. “You’re stronger than you think,” I said. (我意识到，不管我是怎么想的，允许茱莉亚屈服于她的恐惧对她没有好处。她挂了电话，我拥抱了她。“你比你想象的要坚强，”我说。)”可推知，当茱莉亚打电话时，作者意识到朱莉娅应该克服开车的恐惧。故选C项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段的“As I watched her leave, I felt nervous and proud. She texted me when she got to the restaurant, and I felt my heart rate return to normal. The tears I’d been holding back all week flooded my eyes. Watching her leave the house without me for the first time since the accident was frightening, but it was also necessary. (当我看着她离开时，我感到既紧张又自豪。她一到餐厅就给我发短信，我觉得我的心率恢复了正常。我压抑了整整一个星期的泪水涌上了我的眼睛。看着她在事故发生后第一次独自离开家，我感到很害怕，但这也是必要的 )”可知，作者收到茱莉亚安全到达的信息后哭了，是因为茱莉亚在车祸后，她的精神和身体都恢复了，这让作者激动的哭了。故选B项。 D Students at Eindhoven University of Technology didn’t just want to build a car that wouldn’t pollute the air; they wanted to create one that could actually clean it up. The college team has just exhibited a battery-powered car that absorbs CO2. Their car, called the Zem, is equipped with a special filter (过滤器) that cleans up the CO2 produced by other cars on the road. The Zem was born out of a challenge to build a completely carbon-neutral vehicle. Its body panels (金属板) were 3D printed to reduce waste and minimize the production of CO2. Recycled plastics were also used throughout the outside and inside. The car’s powertrain, which consists of small battery packs and a 22-kWh motor, also makes use of regenerative braking to increase efficiency. The real difference maker, though, is the vehicle’s special CO2 filter. The Zem purifies (净化) the air through the special filter while driving, capturing the CO2 and storing it. It is able to absorb two kg of CO2 for 20,000 miles a year, meaning ten cars could store as much carbon dioxide as an average tree — a significant amount when considering the world’s billion cars are currently one of its leading sources of emissions. Even if the technology isn’t adopted, the team hope that their car can inspire automakers to start making cleaner vehicles. “We want to encourage the industry by showing what is already possible,” the leader of the team said. “If 35 students can design, develop and build an almost carbon-neutral car in a year, then there are also opportunities and possibilities for the industry.” The Zem is the second zero-emission vehicle we’ve seen come out of the Eindhoven University of Technology. Last year, another team of students created the Stella Vita, a solar-powered vehicle that could travel up to 450 miles a day. We can’t wait to see what the school’s students come up with next. 12. Why can the Zem absorb CO2? A. It is battery-powered. B. It has a special filter. C. It is created by using 3D printing. D. It has reusable body panels. 13. What do we know about the building of the Zem? A. It is time-consuming. B. It is financially secure. C. It is physically demanding. D. It is environmentally-friendly. 14. What can be inferred about the Zem from the fourth paragraph? A. It can capture the CO2 and dispose it. B. It is able to absorb CO2 as much as a tree. C. It has a huge potential to reduce pollution. D. It can run 20,000 miles on a single charge. 15. What does the author expect the students to do? A. Invest in research. B. Inspire confidence. C. Innovate further. D. Introduce technology. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了埃因霍芬理工大学的学生们创造出一款名叫Zem的吸收二氧化碳的电动汽车。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Their car, called the Zem, is equipped with a special filter (过滤器) that cleans up the CO2 produced by other cars on the road. (他们的汽车名为Zem，配备了一种特殊的过滤器，可以清除道路上其他汽车产生的二氧化碳。)”可知，Zem能吸收二氧化碳是因为拥有特殊的过滤器。故选B项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Its body panels (金属板) were 3D printed to reduce waste and minimize the production of CO2. Recycled plastics were also used throughout the outside and inside. The car’s powertrain, which consists of small battery packs and a 22-kWh motor, also makes use of regenerative braking to increase efficiency. (它的车身金属板是3D打印的，以减少浪费并最大限度地减少二氧化碳的产生。内外都使用了再生塑料。该车的动力系统由小型电池组和一个22千瓦时的电机组成，还利用再生制动来提高效率。)”可知，Zem的制造减少浪费、使用再生材料，利用再生制动提高效率。由此可知，它对环境非常友好。故选D项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“The Zem purifies (净化) the air through the special filter while driving, capturing the CO2 and storing it. It is able to absorb two kg of CO2 for 20,000 miles a year, meaning ten cars could store as much carbon dioxide as an average tree — a significant amount when considering the world’s billion cars are currently one of its leading sources of emissions. (Zem在驾驶时通过特殊的过滤器净化空气，捕捉二氧化碳并储存起来。每年行驶2万英里，它能够吸收2公斤的二氧化碳，这意味着10辆汽车储存的二氧化碳相当于一棵普通的树——考虑到目前世界上10亿辆汽车是主要的排放源之一，这是一个相当大的数字。)”可知，Zem可以捕捉二氧化碳并进行储存，而且吸收的量非常可观。由此推知，它在减少污染方面有巨大的潜力。故选C项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The Zem is the second zero-emission vehicle we’ve seen come out of the Eindhoven University of Technology. Last year, another team of students created the Stella Vita, a solar-powered vehicle that could travel up to 450 miles a day. We can’t wait to see what the school’s students come up with next. (Zem是我们看到第二款零排放汽车，来自埃因霍芬理工大学。去年，另一组学生创造了Stella Vita，这是一种太阳能汽车，每天可以行驶450英里。我们迫不及待地想看看这所学校的学生接下来会想出什么。)”可知，埃因霍芬理工大学的学生在创造环保汽车上表现突出，作者很期待这些学生接下来的想法。由此推知，作者期待他们能够进一步创新。故选C项。 第二节：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。 For average working people, they normally change their careers five to seven times throughout their whole lives. ____16____ Without that, you are just a dreamer.

By this kind of self-reflection, you will discover the type of career you want. ____18____ You probably need SMART goals that are specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound to prepare for success.

A 19. G 20. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了为转行作准备的三个步骤：自我反思、设定目标和做出决定。 【16题详解】 由下文“Without that, you are just a dreamer. (没有它，你只是一个梦想家)”和指代关系可知，设空句中应出现指示代词that指代对象，E选项“为转行做好准备的最好方法是制定一个计划。”中“make a plan”即下文that指代内容，没有计划，你只是一个空想家，另外，选项中“be prepared for a career change”也与上文“For average working people, they normally change their careers five to seven times throughout their whole lives.

(当你对自己和自己想要的东西有了更好的了解，你就更有可能制定一个适合你的目标和生活方式的计划)”讲更好地了解自己和自己想要的东西的益处，D选项“反思自己和自己的需求也是必要的。”提出要反思自己和自己的需求的必要性，下文是反思的结果，选项中“Reflecting on yourself and your needs”和下文“a better understanding of yourself and what you want”相照应。故选D项。 【18题详解】 上一段提出先要进行“self-reflection (自我反思)”，进而明确你想要的职业类型，设空句下文“You probably need SMART goals that are specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound to prepare for success. (为成功做准备，你可能需要制定明智的目标，这些目标要是具体的、可衡量的、可实现的、相关的和有时间限制的)”提出制定职业目标的具体的做法，A项“下一步是弄清楚如何实现这一点”承上启下，符合上下文连贯。故选A项。 【19题详解】 由上文“Studies prove that SMART goals work better when they are written down and shared with others. Sharing enhances your sense of responsibility while writing down allows you to commit them to memory. (研究证明，当SMART目标被写下来并与他人分享时，效果会更好。分享可以增强你的责任感，而写下来可以让你把它们记在记忆中)”可知，上文讲SMART目标被“写下来”并与他人“分享”时，效果会更好，会留在你的记忆中，G选项“因此，因为它们保存在你的潜意识中，你总是可以接触到它们。”与上文形成因果关系，表明为什么SMART目标留在记忆中的原因及其导致的结果。故选G项。 【20题详解】 由上文“Now that you have understood what you want and had your goals set and written down, it’s time to make career decisions. First, list pros and cons of different decisions. And then think about how each path lines up with your values. (既然你已经了解了自己想要什么，并制定并写下了目标，现在是时候做出职业决定了。首先，列出不同决策的利弊。然后想想每一条路是如何与你的价值观相一致的)”可知，上文已经提出了如何做出职业决定的两点策略，C选项“最后，评估它们如何影响你的未来。”中的“Finally”提起最后一点策略。故选C项。 第三部分：语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节：阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A，B，C，D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。（每小题1分，共15分） A girl named Sammy didn’t want to make friends because of her looks.

Writing was so difficult and painful for me that my teacher had allowed me to present my paper on the sinking of the Titanic by acting out a play, where I played all the parts. No one laughed harder than he did. So, why did he suddenly force me to do something at which I was sure to fail? His reply: “Because I love your stories. If you’re willing to apply yourself, I think you have a good shot at this.” Encouraged by his words, I agreed to give it a try. I chose Paul Revere’s horse as my subject. Paul Revere was a silversmith (银匠) in Boston who rode a horse at night on April 18, 1775 to Lexington to warn people that British soldiers were coming. My story would come straight from the horse’s mouth. Not a brilliant idea, but funny; and unlikely to be anyone else’s choice. What did the horse think, as he sped through the night? Did he get tired? Have doubts? Did he want to quit? I sympathized immediately. I got tired. I had doubts. I wanted to quit. But, like Revere’s horse, I kept going. I worked hard. I checked my spelling. I asked my older sister to correct my grammar. I checked out a half dozen books on Paul Revere from the library. I even read a few of them. When I handed in the essay to my teacher, he read it, laughed out loud, and said, “Great. Now, write it again.” I wrote it again, and again and again. When I finally finished it, the thought of winning had given way to the enjoyment of writing. If I didn’t win, I wouldn’t care. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 A few weeks later, when I almost forgot the contest, there came the news. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I went to my teacher’s office after the award presentation. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 A few weeks later, when I almost forgot the contest, there came the news. I was informed that I won the first prize in the writing contest and that there would be an award presentation in two days. I was so happy to hear the news that I immediately shared it with my teacher. “I knew you’d win! I am proud of you. You made it!” he said excitedly. Then came the big day. When I was invited to the stage to receive the award, I expressed my thanks to my teacher. I said, “It’s you who make me fall in love with writing, my social studies teacher. Without your recognition and guidance, I couldn’t have written this article. Again thank you very much!” I went to my teacher’s office after the award presentation. My teacher was waiting for me. Holding my hands, he said “Congratulations! You are a good writer, so keep writing.” “You know I didn’t like writing before, but now I am crazy about it! I will try my best to create good works.” I said seriously. Since then, I have written many good works and now I am a famous writer. I owe my success to my social teacher who is a beacon in my life on the road to writing. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者上中学的时候，社会学老师邀请作者参加一个写作比赛。作者不喜欢写作，于是想都没想就拒绝了。但是在老师的鼓励下，作者同意试一试。作者在写作过程中虽然很累，但是没有放弃，坚持下来了。在作者最终完成写作时，作者感到写作让他很快乐，他已经不在乎输赢了。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“几个星期后，当我几乎忘记比赛的时候，传来了消息。”和第二段首句“颁奖后我去了老师的办公室。”可知，第一段可描写作者获得比赛一等奖，在颁奖典礼上作者表达了对社会老师的感激。 ②由第二段首句内容“颁奖后我去了老师的办公室。”可知，第二段可描写老师鼓励作者继续写作，自此作者坚持写作取得了成功，作者将这一切归功于自己的老师。 2.续写线索：比赛消息传来——作者获奖——高兴——颁奖典礼感谢老师——颁奖后来到老师办公室——老师告诉作者坚持写作——作者表达了对写作的喜爱——作者写作取得了成功——感激老师 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①告知：inform/tell ②成功做到：make it/succeed ③表达：express/convey 情绪类 ①高兴的：happy/glad ②激动地：excitedly/with excitement 【点睛】[高分句型1] I was informed that I won the first prize in the writing contest and that there would be an award presentation in two days. （运用了由连接词that引导的宾语从句） [高分句型2] It’s you who make me fall in love with writing, my social studies teacher.（运用了强调句） [高分句型3] I owe my success to my social teacher who is a beacon in my life on the road to writing.（运用了who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 $$
