So, let’s head towards the best websites on which you can watch your favorite TV shows. Tubi TV Tubi TV is a video on demand service. As you can see, you can use it fully with or without registering.

Popcornflix Popcornflix is famous for its full length TV shows, movies and documentaries. You can enjoy a great deal of content including cartoons and reality TV shows. If you want to feel nostalgic (怀旧的) then there is no better place than Popcornflix, where you can enjoy shows of the 90s and earlier. Share TV It claims to have every TV show as well as movie.

I try to get students to recommend songs to me for the broadcast. In the broadcast, I usually announce who recommended the song and then play it for everyone to hear. I give everyone a chance to share themselves through their music, including one tough student of mine, Jerry. This student constantly gets into fights with other students. Most of the other teachers and students push him away. I knew though that he just needed a friend, or at least someone he can connect with. I could tell he was warming up to me over the last year. I told him to think of a song he likes that has some English words in it and that I’ll play it on the broadcast for him. He eventually recommended a song. I actually really liked the song so I put it on the broadcast and made sure to announce his name, so everyone knew that he contributed and recommended such a great song. Needless to say, the boy was excited, and he’s been much happier and focused in English class ever since. While everyone else misunderstood him and pushed him away, I saw right through and knew that he just needed someone who acknowledges (认可) him and gives him a chance. We can’t communicate fluently because of language, but words aren’t needed. You can always sense where you’re at with someone. He recently walked by me and gave me the most genuine (纯真的) smile that I’ve ever seen. My colleagues turned to me and said, “I’ve never seen him smile like that before. How did you get through to him?” I said, “Through just one song.” 24. Why do most teachers and students push Jerry away? A. He hates to study hard. B. He always fights and dislikes study. C. He recommends songs to broadcast. D. He dislikes to make friends with others. 25. What can we learn about Jerry? A. He is really helpful. B. He has a gift for music. C. He needs to be acknowledged. D. He has difficulty in doing lessons. 26. What’s Jerry’s attitude toward the author? A. Thankful. B. Angry. C. Worried. D. Doubtful. 27. What is this text probably? A. A historical event. B. An inspiring story. C. A science fiction. D. A research report. C Dolphins can learn how to hunt from their mothers as we all know. But Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphins in Western Australia’s Shark Bay are different. Some may even pick up one clever hunting behavior from their peers (同伴). Studies before had suggested the dolphins there can learn from peers. But a new report is the first to prove the importance of social networks over other factors. Some Shark Bay dolphins also use a more unusual tool-based feeding method. It’s known as shelling. A dolphin will first trap underwater prey (猎物) in the large shell of a sea snail. Then the dolphin puts its sharp beak into the shell’s opening. It can now lift the shell above the water’s surface to shake the contents into its mouth. This brief behavior appears to be rare. From 2007 to 2018, more than 5,000. dolphins in the western gulf of Shark Bay were studied. However, there were only 42 shelling events. Only 19 dolphins exhibited the behavior. The researchers then analyzed the behavior of 310 dolphins that had been seen at least 11 times. These included 15 shellers. They mapped the dolphins’ network of social interactions (互动). Those interactions explained shelling’s spread better than other factors. Just by spending time together and watching each other, they are more likely to pass those behaviors to each other. Those shells are found in particular habitats. And animals that live in those habitats would get those shells. A dolphin’s shelling behavior could also have been influenced during the long time the animal spent with its mother. There is no question that dolphins are smart. They watch each other and see what others do. 28. Which of the following is expressed in paragraph 1? A All dolphins can learn hunting from their peers. B. All sharks can learn hunting from their peers. C. All dolphins can learn hunting from their mothers. D. All sharks can learn hunting from dolphins. 29. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. Why dolphins like shelling. B. When dolphins usually hunt. C. Where dolphins usually shell. D. How dolphins shell their preys. 30. How do some Shark Bay dolphins learn hunting from their peers? A. By staying together and watching others. B. By communicating in signals with others. C. By sharing their preys with each other. D. By stealing the preys others have caught. 31. Which word can best describe dolphins according to the text? A. Active. B. Clever. C. Dangerous. D. Dependent. D A new paper in the journal iScience shows that chimpanzees and gorillas can be friends, obviously with advantages for all. Over a 20-year period, researchers, working at the Nouabalé-Ndoki National Park in the Republic of Congo, saw gorillas follow the sound of chimps to a big tree full of ripe fruits, and then co-feed at the same tree. They saw young individuals of both species (物种) playing with each other—interactions that can help their development. And when the two species met each other, researchers saw gorillas and chimps look at the others carefully and then come close to the ones they knew. They even saw chimpanzees beating their chests—a behavior associated with gorillas. Researchers had inferred that connections between the species could perhaps be to avoid predators (捕食者). But the apes’ behavior didn’t show that to be a major factor in their interactions. Instead, better searching for food seemed to be a key upside for both species—sometimes eating at the same tree, sometimes dining nearby on different foods. Not every interaction was warm and friendly. “Interspecific aggression (攻击) was bidirectional,” the study notes — but it never rose to the level of deadly aggression that has happened between chimps and gorillas in Gabon. There is some risk from these social interactions, though: namely, disease transmission. Twenty years ago, an Ebola outbreak killed thousands of gorillas in central Africa. The research makes a case for conservation efforts that protect the habitats where these gorillas and chimpanzees interact. “No longer can we think that an individual ape’s social environment is entirely taken up by members of their own species,” said co-author Jake Funkhouser. “The strength and persistence of social relationships that we observed between apes shows a depth of social awareness and many social transmission pathways that had not been imagined before.” 32. What was found during the long-term research on gorillas and chimps? A. They behave exactly the same way. B. They compete for food and habitats. C. They can develop a good friendship. D. They fight against a common enemy. 33. What may be the main reason for the connection of the two species? A. Better seeking for food resources. B. Hiding from their natural enemies. C. Creating a safe living environment. D. Preventing the loss of their habitats. 34. Why can the interaction of gorillas and chimps be risky? A. They take advantage of each other. B. They spread disease to each other. C They drive each other into a new place. D. They depend on different trees for food. 35. What can be inferred from Jake Funkhouser’s words? A. They almost knew little about the two species. B. They will continue to observe ape species closely. C. They have found a close tie between the two species. D. They can tell the two species apart much more easily. 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。 As you start a new life in school, maybe you’ll find you don’t have enough time for the study. The rules below are about effective time management. ____36____ Stick to your schedule. If you can’t promise to devote time to a task, don’t put it in your schedule. ____37____ If you don’t actually stick to your schedule, it will soon become useless. Do one thing at a time. Current research shows us that multi-tasking is untrue.

In the moment of decision-making, when faced with other things which are not included in the schedule, take a moment to think and respond. ____39____ For example, if exercise is the most important for you, don’t let a sudden fear about a grade prevent you from exercising. You can reduce the amount of exercise time, but don’t cut it out. Flexibility (灵活性) —____40____ Don’t schedule every hour of the day. Leave empty time and schedule in entertainment time. Create two or three hours on Friday as a catch-all makeup time. When things come up and you are deciding whether to differ from your established schedule, look for future hours and days to see where you can make up lost time. A. Be brief when making your schedule. B. How do you combine flexibility with your schedule? C. In this situation we also lose the depth of our concentration. D. Try to keep the rules in mind as you schedule your time. E. Switch blocks of time so that your schedule shows your new commitment. F. Remember what’s most important to you and do what will help you get it. G. Creating a schedule you can’t actually keep is setting yourself up for failure. 第三部分 语言运用 (共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 When the host announced that my choir (合唱队) won the second place of the World Choir Games, I couldn’t believe what I heard.

My son was little, and it was getting close to time to have a little sleep, so I was rushing through the aisles trying to avoid a failure. I remember feeling a sense of achievement as I got him into the car without any tears. Then I went to start the car and realized my keys were gone. After a few minutes of checking around, I realized that I must have locked them in the trunk with my bag. I wasn’t sure what to do, so I took my son out of his car seat and went back inside the store with my cart still full of groceries. I had to use their phones to call my husband for the spare key because my phone was in the bag I had locked in the trunk. After multiple calls and messages with no answer, I was getting discouraged. My son was tired and began to cry. I was tired because of a sleepless night that all mums go through-when their kids are teething. When he went into full-on crying, I felt the tears come down my face, too. An employee at the store tapped me on the shoulder and asked me to come with her. I was panicked for a moment, thinking that I was going to be scolded and thrown into the storage area to keep us quiet. The employee, whose name I would later find out was Kelly, took me, to my surprise, to the Starbucks cafe that was inside the store. She asked me if I drank coffee. When I said yes, she walked over to the counter and came back with one for me. She said that it looked like I was having one of those days and that, as a mum, she had them, too. I told her how stupid I felt locking my keys in the car, and she assured me it happened to a lot of people. As we talked, my son settled into a sound sleep in my arms. 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。 After about fifteen minutes, she said her break was over. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After I got home that day, I kept thinking about what Kelly had done for me. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $第一部分听力。第一节听下面5段对话，每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3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。I've heard that you are going to amErica tomorrow.

What they really mean is that they don't remember their dreams, or they don't think their dreams are important. The other day, someone named Davis came to me and said that he used to be a great dreamer, but suddenly he stopped having dreams. I asked him what had happened. IT turned out that his brother died by heart attack generally when there was some frightening event, and dreaming about IT was too terrible. People prefer not to dream about IT. Actually, the worst thing you can do is stop dreaming, because that means that the bad experience would be too painful to even appear in dreams. As long as you dream about IT and even the dream is frightening, your mind is working on IT. My personal opinion about what dreams do is that they help us deal with our problems when a person is hurt deep inside, when a person is seriously ill, or when a person has been really sad. If people turn off their dreams totally IT means they don't allow themselves to even think about IT. IT appears that everyone dreams mostly when people say that they never dream.

If people turn off their dreams totally IT means they don't allow themselves to even think about IT. 第二节到此结束。 高一年级上学期期末考试模拟卷 英语试卷 (120分钟 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. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 When is the man’s flight leaving for America?

The other day, someone named Davis came to me and said that he used to be a great dreamer, but suddenly he stopped having dreams. I asked him what had happened. It turned out that his brother died by heart attack. Generally, when there was some frightening event and dreaming about it was too terrible, people prefer not to dream about it. Actually the worst thing you can do is stop dreaming. Because it means that the bad experience would be too painful to even appear in dreams. As long as you dream about it and even the dream is frightening, your mind is working on it. My personal opinion about what dreams do is that they help us deal with our problems. When a person is hurt deep inside, when a person is seriously ill or when a person has been really sad, if people turn off their dreams totally, it means they don’t allow themselves to even think about it. 第二部分 阅读 (共两节，满分50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A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A On the Internet you will find numerous websites to watch TV shows and movies.

I try to get students to recommend songs to me for the broadcast. In the broadcast, I usually announce who recommended the song and then play it for everyone to hear. I give everyone a chance to share themselves through their music, including one tough student of mine, Jerry. This student constantly gets into fights with other students. Most of the other teachers and students push him away. I knew though that he just needed a friend, or at least someone he can connect with. I could tell he was warming up to me over the last year. I told him to think of a song he likes that has some English words in it and that I’ll play it on the broadcast for him. He eventually recommended a song. I actually really liked the song so I put it on the broadcast and made sure to announce his name, so everyone knew that he contributed and recommended such a great song. Needless to say, the boy was excited, and he’s been much happier and focused in English class ever since. While everyone else misunderstood him and pushed him away, I saw right through and knew that he just needed someone who acknowledges (认可) him and gives him a chance. We can’t communicate fluently because of language, but words aren’t needed. You can always sense where you’re at with someone. He recently walked by me and gave me the most genuine (纯真的) smile that I’ve ever seen. My colleagues turned to me and said, “I’ve never seen him smile like that before. How did you get through to him?” I said, “Through just one song.” 24. Why do most teachers and students push Jerry away? A. He hates to study hard. B. He always fights and dislikes study. C. He recommends songs to broadcast. D. He dislikes to make friends with others. 25. What can we learn about Jerry? A. He is really helpful. B. He has a gift for music. C. He needs to be acknowledged. D. He has difficulty in doing lessons. 26. What’s Jerry’s attitude toward the author? A. Thankful. B. Angry. C. Worried. D. Doubtful. 27. What is this text probably? A. A historical event. B. An inspiring story. C. A science fiction. D. A research report. 【答案】24. B 25. C 26. A 27. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了一名在日本任教的外籍英语老师通过让学生推荐歌曲进行英语广播的方式，帮助了一个经常打架、被师生排斥的学生Jerry，让他感受到了被认可和接纳的温暖，从而变得更加快乐和专注于英语学习。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“This student constantly gets into fights with other students. Most of the other teachers and students push him away.(这个学生经常和其他学生打架。大多数其他老师和学生都疏远他)”可知，大多数老师和学生都疏远Jerry是因为他经常打架。故选B。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“While everyone else misunderstood him and pushed him away, I saw right through and knew that he just needed someone who acknowledges (认可) him and gives him a chance.(当其他人都误解他并疏远他时，我一眼就看穿了，知道他只是需要有人认可他，给他一个机会)”可知，Jerry需要被认可。故选C。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“He recently walked by me and gave me the most genuine smile that I’ve ever seen.(他最近从我身边走过，给了我我所见过的最真诚的微笑)”可推知，Jerry对作者是感激的态度。故选A。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，本文主要讲述了作者在日本任教期间，通过让学生推荐歌曲进行英语广播的方式，帮助了一个经常打架、被师生排斥的学生Jerry，让他感受到了被认可和接纳的温暖，从而变得更加快乐和专注于英语学习，这是一个鼓舞人心的故事。故选B。 C Dolphins can learn how to hunt from their mothers as we all know. But Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphins in Western Australia’s Shark Bay are different. Some may even pick up one clever hunting behavior from their peers (同伴). Studies before had suggested the dolphins there can learn from peers. But a new report is the first to prove the importance of social networks over other factors. Some Shark Bay dolphins also use a more unusual tool-based feeding method. It’s known as shelling. A dolphin will first trap underwater prey (猎物) in the large shell of a sea snail. Then the dolphin puts its sharp beak into the shell’s opening. It can now lift the shell above the water’s surface to shake the contents into its mouth. This brief behavior appears to be rare. From 2007 to 2018, more than 5,000. dolphins in the western gulf of Shark Bay were studied. However, there were only 42 shelling events. Only 19 dolphins exhibited the behavior. The researchers then analyzed the behavior of 310 dolphins that had been seen at least 11 times. These included 15 shellers. They mapped the dolphins’ network of social interactions (互动). Those interactions explained shelling’s spread better than other factors. Just by spending time together and watching each other, they are more likely to pass those behaviors to each other. Those shells are found in particular habitats. And animals that live in those habitats would get those shells. A dolphin’s shelling behavior could also have been influenced during the long time the animal spent with its mother. There is no question that dolphins are smart. They watch each other and see what others do. 28. Which of the following is expressed in paragraph 1? A. All dolphins can learn hunting from their peers. B. All sharks can learn hunting from their peers. C. All dolphins can learn hunting from their mothers. D. All sharks can learn hunting from dolphins. 29. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. Why dolphins like shelling. B. When dolphins usually hunt. C. Where dolphins usually shell. D. How dolphins shell their preys. 30. How do some Shark Bay dolphins learn hunting from their peers? A. By staying together and watching others. B. By communicating in signals with others. C. By sharing their preys with each other. D. By stealing the preys others have caught. 31. Which word can best describe dolphins according to the text? A. Active. B. Clever. C. Dangerous. D. Dependent. 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. A 31. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了海豚的捕猎行为。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Dolphins can learn how to hunt from their mothers as we all know. But Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphins in Western Australia’s Shark Bay are different. Some may even pick up one clever hunting behavior from their peers.(我们都知道，海豚可以从母亲那里学习如何捕猎。但西澳大利亚鲨鱼湾的印太瓶鼻海豚却不同。有些甚至可能从同伴那里学到一种聪明的捕猎行为。)”可知，第一段主要表达的是所有的海豚都能从母亲那里学习捕猎。故选C。 【29题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Some Shark Bay dolphins also use a more unusual tool-based feeding method. It’s known as shelling. A dolphin will first trap underwater prey in the large shell of a sea snail. Then the dolphin puts its sharp beak into the shell’s opening. It can now lift the shell above the water’s surface to shake the contents into its mouth.(鲨鱼湾的一些海豚还使用一种更不寻常的基于工具的觅食方法。这被称为剥壳。海豚会先把水下的猎物困在海螺的大壳里。然后海豚把它锋利的喙伸进壳的开口。现在它可以把壳举到水面以上，把里面的东西摇进嘴里。)”可知，第二段主要讲的是海豚如何剥去猎物的壳。故选D。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Just by spending time together and watching each other, they are more likely to pass those behaviors to each other.(仅仅通过花时间在一起，互相观察，它们就更有可能把这些行为传递给彼此。)”可知，鲨鱼湾的一些海豚是通过待在一起并观察同伴来从同伴那里学习捕猎的。故选A。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Some may even pick up one clever hunting behavior from their peers.(有些甚至可能从同伴那里学到一种聪明的捕猎行为。)”和最后一段“There is no question that dolphins are smart.(毫无疑问，海豚是聪明的。)”可知，最能描述海豚的词是“聪明的”。故选B。 D A new paper in the journal iScience shows that chimpanzees and gorillas can be friends, obviously with advantages for all. Over a 20-year period, researchers, working at the Nouabalé-Ndoki National Park in the Republic of Congo, saw gorillas follow the sound of chimps to a big tree full of ripe fruits, and then co-feed at the same tree. They saw young individuals of both species (物种) playing with each other—interactions that can help their development. And when the two species met each other, researchers saw gorillas and chimps look at the others carefully and then come close to the ones they knew. They even saw chimpanzees beating their chests—a behavior associated with gorillas. Researchers had inferred that connections between the species could perhaps be to avoid predators (捕食者). But the apes’ behavior didn’t show that to be a major factor in their interactions. Instead, better searching for food seemed to be a key upside for both species—sometimes eating at the same tree, sometimes dining nearby on different foods. Not every interaction was warm and friendly. “Interspecific aggression (攻击) was bidirectional,” the study notes — but it never rose to the level of deadly aggression that has happened between chimps and gorillas in Gabon. There is some risk from these social interactions, though: namely, disease transmission. Twenty years ago, an Ebola outbreak killed thousands of gorillas in central Africa. The research makes a case for conservation efforts that protect the habitats where these gorillas and chimpanzees interact. “No longer can we think that an individual ape’s social environment is entirely taken up by members of their own species,” said co-author Jake Funkhouser. “The strength and persistence of social relationships that we observed between apes shows a depth of social awareness and many social transmission pathways that had not been imagined before.” 32. What was found during the long-term research on gorillas and chimps? A. They behave exactly the same way. B. They compete for food and habitats. C. They can develop a good friendship. D. They fight against a common enemy. 33. What may be the main reason for the connection of the two species? A. Better seeking for food resources. B. Hiding from their natural enemies. C. Creating a safe living environment. D. Preventing the loss of their habitats. 34. Why can the interaction of gorillas and chimps be risky? A. They take advantage of each other. B. They spread disease to each other. C They drive each other into a new place. D. They depend on different trees for food. 35. What can be inferred from Jake Funkhouser’s words? A. They almost knew little about the two species. B. They will continue to observe ape species closely. C. They have found a close tie between the two species. D. They can tell the two species apart much more easily. 【答案】32. C 33. A 34. B 35. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了对黑猩猩和大猩猩的长期研究表明它们之间可以建立友谊，对双方都有好处，但也存在疾病传播的风险，强调了保护它们互动栖息地的重要性。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段提到“Over a 20-year period, researchers, working at the Nouabalé-Ndoki National Park in the Republic of Congo, saw gorillas follow the sound of chimps to a big tree full of ripe fruits, and then co-feed at the same tree. They saw young individuals of both species (物种) playing with each other — interactions that can help their development. And when the two species met each other, researchers saw gorillas and chimps look at the others carefully and then come close to the ones they knew. They even saw chimpanzees beating their chests—a behavior associated with gorillas.(在20年的时间里，在刚果共和国诺阿巴莱-恩多基国家公园工作的研究人员看到，大猩猩跟着黑猩猩的声音来到一棵结满成熟果实的大树下，然后在这棵树上一起觅食。他们看到这两种物种的年轻个体在一起玩耍——这种互动有助于它们的成长。当这两个物种相遇时，研究人员看到大猩猩和黑猩猩会仔细打量对方，然后靠近它们认识的个体。他们甚至看到黑猩猩拍打胸脯——这是与大猩猩有关的行为。)”可知，在对大猩猩和黑猩猩的长期研究中发现它们可以发展良好的友谊。故选C。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Researchers had inferred that connections between the species could perhaps be to avoid predators (捕食者). But the apes’ behavior didn’t show that to be a major factor in their interactions. Instead, better searching for food seemed to be a key upside for both species—sometimes eating at the same tree, sometimes dining nearby on different foods.(研究人员推断，物种之间的联系可能是为了避免捕食者。但猿类的行为并没有表明这是它们互动中的一个主要因素。相反，更好地寻找食物似乎是这两个物种的一个关键优势——有时在同一棵树上进食，有时在附近吃不同的食物。)”可知，这两个物种联系在一起的主要原因可能是更好地寻找食物资源。故选A。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“There is some risk from these social interactions, though: namely, disease transmission. Twenty years ago, an Ebola outbreak killed thousands of gorillas in central Africa.(不过，这些社交互动也存在一些风险：即疾病传播。20年前，埃博拉病毒爆发，导致中非数千只大猩猩死亡。)”可知，大猩猩和黑猩猩的互动会有风险是因为它们互相传播疾病。故选B。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The strength and persistence of social relationships that we observed between apes shows a depth of social awareness and many social transmission pathways that had not been imagined before.(我们观察到猿类之间社会关系的强度和持久性表明了一种深层次的社会意识，以及许多以前从未想象过的社会传播途径。)”可推知，从Jake Funkhouser的话中可以推断出他们发现了这两个物种之间的密切联系。故选C。 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。 As you start a new life in school, maybe you’ll find you don’t have enough time for the study.

My son was little and it was getting close to time to have a little sleep, so I was rushing through the aisles trying to avoid a failure. I remember feeling a sense of achievement as I got him into the car without any tears. Then I went to start the car and realized my keys were gone. After a few minutes of checking around, I realized that I must have locked them in the trunk with my bag. I wasn’t sure what to do, so I took my son out of his car seat and went back inside the store with my cart still full of groceries. I had to use their phones to call my husband for the spare key because my phone was in the bag I had locked in the trunk. After multiple calls and messages with no answer, I was getting discouraged. My son was tired and began to cry. I was tired because of a sleepless night that all mums go through-when their kids are teething. When he went into full-on crying, I felt the tears come down my face, too. An employee at the store tapped me on the shoulder and asked me to come with her. I was panicked for a moment, thinking that I was going to be scolded and thrown into the storage area to keep us quiet. The employee, whose name I would later find out was Kelly, took me, to my surprise, to the Starbucks cafe that was inside the store. She asked me if I drank coffee. When I said yes, she walked over to the counter and came back with one for me. She said that it looked like I was having one of those days and that, as a mum, she had them, too. I told her how stupid I felt locking my keys in the car, and she assured me it happened to a lot of people. As we talked, my son settled into a sound sleep in my arms. 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。 After about fifteen minutes, she said her break was over. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After I got home that day, I kept thinking about what Kelly had done for me. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: After about fifteen minutes, she said her break was over. Kelly had to get back to work again. Before leaving, she asked me to contact my husband again using her phone and said if I couldn’t get through, she would call someone to come out and get the trunk open. Also, my meat and dairy groceries would be replaced with new ones free of charge. Thankfully, this time my husband answered my phone and came to my assistance as soon as possible. After I got home that day, I kept thinking about what Kelly had done for me. Wanting to do something for her in return, I went to the store with a small gift several days later and told her how grateful I was. She would accept nothing in return and just told me to pay it forward. The store has since closed, and I never saw her again, but I never have forgotten the kindness she showed me that day. I am so glad I locked my keys in the car that day. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者在一次超市购物时，把钥匙忘在了车里，也联系不上丈夫，这时儿子又哭了起来，作者非常无助和沮丧。这时一个店里的员工出来请作者喝了一杯咖啡，安慰了作者。作者非常感谢这一善举。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“大约十五分钟后，她说休息结束了”可知，第一段可描写Kelly离开之前对作者的帮助。 ②由第二段首句内容“那天回到家后，我一直在想Kelly为我所做的一切”可知，第二段可描写作者对Kelly给予帮助的反思和感激之情。 2.续写线索：Kelly离开——用手机帮作者联系丈夫——作者反思——感谢——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 联系：contact/ get in touch with 代替：replace/take the place of 免费：free of charge /for free 情绪类 高兴：glad /delighted 感谢：grateful /thankful 【点睛】[高分句型1] Before leaving, she asked me to contact my husband again using her phone and said if I couldn’t get through, she would call someone to come out and get the trunk open.
