I discovered it one sunny afternoon when I was exploring the neighborhood. The moment I pushed open the door a unique aroma (芳香) embraced me. The shelves were stuffed with books of every genre and age. I could see the spines of well-loved classics, rare first editions, and forgotten treasures. The owner, a middle-aged man with glasses and a warm smile, was busy tidying up. He greeted me and told me to feel free to look around. I started browsing and was immediately fascinated by a collection of old travelogues that seemed to hold the secrets of far-off lands. Over the following weeks, I became a regular. I would spend hours there, losing myself in the pages of different books. Sometimes, the owner would recommend a particular book based on our conversations. His knowledge and passion for literature were truly inspiring. However, change was on the horizon. The city was developing rapidly, and new, modern shops were replacing the old ones. One day, I noticed a sense of gloom in the bookstore. The owner informed me that due to the skyrocketing rent and the competition from online bookstores, he was struggling to keep the doors open. It seemed that this little shelter of literature might soon disappear. I was determined not to let that happen. I reached out to my schoolmates and local community groups. We organized a book fair in front of the bookstore, inviting local authors and artists to participate. We also set up an online crowdfunding page to collect donations. People from all over the neighborhood came to show their support. They bought books,donated money, and shared their own memories of the bookstore. Thanks to the collective efforts, we managed to raise enough funds to cover the rent for a while. The bookstore survived this crisis. A community’s love and support can preserve something truly valuable. The old bookstore was not just a place to buy books; it was a cornerstone of our community’s cultural and emotional heritage, and it was worth every bit of the fight to save it. 4. What caught the writer’s attention the most during his first visit to the bookstore? A. The packed book shelves. B. The ancient travel accounts. C. The friendly and devoted shop owner. D. The rich collection of literature classics. 5. Why did the bookstore face the risk of shutting down? A. Poor management of the store. B. Rising rent and e-commerce pressure. C. A decrease in people’s interest in literature. D. The run-down condition and out-of-style decorations. 6. Which of the following best describes the writer? A. Warm-hearted and influential. B. Inspiring and economical. C. Reserved and passionate. D. Ambitious and knowledgeable. 7. What of the following does the writer mainly emphasize in the passage? A. The crucial role of joint efforts in conserving cultural treasure. B. The negative impact of urban expansion on personal hobbies. C. The marked advantage of small local businesses over large ones. D. The unavoidable replacement of old traditions by modern trends. 【答案】4. B 5. B 6. A 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。作者邂逅了街角的一家旧书店，与店主交流并成为常客。后来书店面临困境，作者联合社区力量努力拯救书店，帮助书店度过一劫，体现了社区对书店这一文化和情感遗产的珍视和团体协作的力量。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“I started browsing and was immediately fascinated by a collection of old travelogues that seemed to hold the secrets of far-off lands.(我开始浏览，并立即被一本古老的游记所吸引，这些游记似乎包含着遥远国度的秘密)”可知，作者第一次去书店时最吸引他的是古代旅行记录。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The owner informed me that due to the skyrocketing rent and the competition from online bookstores, he was struggling to keep the doors open.(店主告诉我，由于飞涨的租金和来自网上书店的竞争，他正在努力维持营业)”可知，房租上涨和电商压力让书店面临倒闭的风险。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“I was determined not to let that happen. I reached out to my schoolmates and local community groups. We organized a book fair in front of the bookstore, inviting local authors and artists to participate. We also set up an online crowdfunding page to collect donations. People from all over the neighborhood came to show their support.(我决心不让这种事发生。我联系了我的同学和当地的社区团体。我们在书店前组织了一个书展，邀请当地的作家和艺术家参加。我们还建立了一个在线众筹页面来收集捐款。周围的人都来表示支持)”可知，作者听到书店面临危机后决心帮忙，可知作者是一个很热心的人，同时作者又发动朋友与社区的力量给予帮助，体现了他有一定的影响力。故作者热心且有影响力。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“A community’s love and support can preserve something truly valuable. The old bookstore was not just a place to buy books; it was a cornerstone of our community’s cultural and emotional heritage, and it was worth every bit of the fight to save it.(一个社区的爱和支持可以保存一些真正有价值的东西。老书店不仅仅是一个买书的地方；它是我们社区文化和情感遗产的基石，为拯救它而付出的一切努力都是值得的)”以及作者发动社区的力量一同参与拯救书店的行动体现出了共同的努力对于保护文化瑰宝的重要作用，可知，作者在文章中主要强调的是共同努力保护文化财富的关键作用。故选A。 C What if there is no blood left in the bank when patients need an immediate transfusion (输血)? Scientists in Britain plan to become the first in the world to produce unlimited amounts of human blood from embryonic stem cells (胚胎干细胞) for emergency transfusions. A major research project is to be announced this week, which will end in three years with the first transfusions into human volunteers of synthetic (人造的) blood made from the stem cells of embryos. It could help to save the lives of anyone from victims of traffic accidents to soldiers on a battlefield by completely changing the present blood transfusion services, which have to rely on human donors to provide a constant supply of fresh blood. Britain will play a vital role in the global race to develop synthetic blood. The Wellcome Trust, the world’s biggest medical research charity, has promised £3m towards the cost of the project. A spokesman for the Wellcome Trust said that an announcement is likely to be made in the coming week. The project will be led by Professor Marc Turner of Edinburgh University, who has been involved in studies investigating how to ensure donated blood is infection-free. Researchers will test human embryos to find those that can develop into the “O-negative” blood group, which is the universal donor group whose blood can be transfused into anyone. This blood group is relatively rare, accounting for about 7% of the population, but it could be produced in unlimited quantities from embryonic stem cells in the laboratory. Such synthetic blood would have the benefit of not being at risk of being infected with viruses such as HIV and the human form of “mad cow” disease. The project was held up because of the difficulty of finding funding for “translational” research that attempts to take scientific studies in the laboratory into the earliest stages of commercial development. This problem has now been overcome. 8. What is the primary objective of the project? A. To save the lives of accident victims. B. To inspire more voluntary blood donors. C To produce sufficient blood for emergencies. D. To transform the present blood transfusion services. 9. Why does the author mention Professor Marc Turner’s studies? A. To praise his effort to the research. B. To show the project leader’s expertise. C. To emphasize the importance of his research. D. To illustrate the rareness of the “O-negative” blood group. 10. In what way will synthetic blood be superior to normal blood? A. It will help patients to recover sooner. B. It will avoid the risk of various infections. C. It will cure the patients of their diseases. D. It will be offered to transfusion patients for free. 11. How does the writer sound in the text? A. Excited. B. Critical. C. Pessimistic. D. Informative. 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了英国科学家计划用胚胎干细胞生产无限量人造血用于紧急输血的项目。 8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Scientists in Britain plan to become the first in the world to produce unlimited amounts of human blood from embryonic stem cells (胚胎干细胞) for emergency transfusions. (英国科学家计划成为世界上第一个用胚胎干细胞生产无限量人类血液用于紧急输血的人。)”可知，该项目的主要目标是为紧急情况生产足够的血液。故选C项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“The project will be led by Professor Marc Turner of Edinburgh University, who has been involved in studies investigating how to ensure donated blood is infection free. (该项目将由爱丁堡大学的马克·特纳教授领导，他一直参与研究如何确保捐赠的血液不被感染。)”可知马克·特纳教授一直参与研究，所以提及马克·特纳教授的研究是为了展示项目负责人在相关领域的专业知识。故选B项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Such synthetic blood would have the benefit of not being at risk of being infected with viruses such as HIV and the human form of ‘mad cow’ disease. (这种人造血的好处是不会有感染艾滋病毒和人类疯牛病等病毒的风险。)”可知，人造血优于正常血液的地方在于它能避免各种感染的风险。故选B项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“ What if there is no blood left in the bank when patients need an immediate transfusion (输血)? Scientists in Britain plan to become the first in the world to produce unlimited amounts of human blood from embryonic stem cells (胚胎干细胞) for emergency transfusions. (如果病人需要紧急输血时血库没有血了怎么办?英国科学家计划成为世界上第一个用胚胎干细胞生产无限量人类血液用于紧急输血的人。)”和第二段中“A major research project is to be announced this week, which will end in three years with the first transfusions into human volunteers of synthetic (人造的) blood made from the stem cells of embryos. (本周将宣布一个重大研究项目，该项目将在三年后结束，届时将首次向人类志愿者输入由胚胎干细胞制成的人造血液。)”等内容可知，全文客观陈述人造血液项目的背景、目标、研究进展及优势，未掺杂主观情感评价。所以，informative (提供有用信息的)准确描述作者中立、事实性的语气。故选D项。 D However much we learn from things going wrong, we will never become the best decision-makers. This finding comes from a mathematical game that simulates (模拟) a large economy, and suggests we may need to rethink assumptions built into economic theories. In such theories, people are typically represented as reasonable agents who learn from past experiences to enhance their performance, eventually reaching a stable state in which they know how to maximize their earnings. To test whether economists are correct to assume that learning from the past can help people avoid chaos rather than stability, Garnier-Brun and his colleagues invented a mathematical model for a game featuring hundreds of simulated players. Each player can choose between two actions, like buying or selling a stock. They also interact with each other.and the players’ decision-making is influenced by what they have done before — meaning they are able to learn from experience. In different game scenarios (设想), the researchers expected that the game would always result in chaos, with players unable to learn how to optimize their performance. Economic theory would also suggest that, given the right set of parameters (参数), the players would settle into a stable state where they had mastered the game — but the researchers found this wasn’t really the case. The most likely outcome was a state that never settled. Team member Jean-Philippe Bouchaud says that, in the absence of one centralized,god-like player who could coordinate everyone, regular players could only learn how to reach “satisficing” states. That is a level that satisfied minimum expectations but not much more.Players gained more than they would have done by playing at random, so learning wasn’t useless, but they still gained less than they would have if past experience had allowed them to truly optimize their performance. Bouchaud says the game model is too simple to be immediately adopted for making real-world predictions, but he sees the study as a challenge to economists to drop many assumptions that currently go into theorizing processes, like merchants choosing suppliers or banks setting interest rates. 12. What effect of past experiences do economists suppose? A. Better decisions and higher income. B. A state of confusion and disorder. C. Ignorance of future opportunities. D. Decreased interactions between people. 13. Why did Garnier-Brun and his colleagues create a mathematical model? A. To simulate a large economy. B. To predict future economic trends. C. To analyze interactions between players. D. To assess the assumption of economists. 14. The underlined word “satisficing” in Paragraph 5 most probably means______. A. highly satisfying B. constantly improving C. minimally acceptable D. completely unpredictable 15. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Reevaluating Economic Assumptions through a Game Model B. A Mathematical Game Model for Simulating Large Economies C. Challenges in Predicting Economic Stability through Games D. The Importance of Learning from Experience in Economics 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了一个由Garnier-Brun及其团队进行的数学模拟游戏，该游戏模拟了一个大型经济体中的决策过程。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“In such theories, people are typically represented as reasonable agents who learn from past experiences to enhance their performance, eventually reaching a stable state in which they know how to maximize their earnings.(在这些理论中，人们通常被描述为理性的代理人，他们从过去的经验中学习，以提高他们的表现，最终达到一个稳定的状态，他们知道如何最大化他们的收入。)”可知，经济学家认为过去的经验会产生更好的决策和更高的收入。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“To test whether economists are correct to assume that learning from the past can help people avoid chaos rather than stability, Garnier-Brun and his colleagues invented a mathematical model for a game featuring hundreds of simulated players.(为了检验经济学家是否正确地假设，从过去学习可以帮助人们避免混乱而不是稳定，Garnier-Brun和他的同事们为一个有数百名模拟玩家的游戏发明了一个数学模型)”可知，Garnier-Brun和他的同事创建了一个数学模型是为了验证评估经济学家的假设，故选D。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段划线词后文“That is a level that satisfied minimum expectations but not much more.(这是一个满足最低预期的水平，但仅此而已。)”可知，这是一个满足最低可接受的预期水平，从而推知，划线处“satisficing”的意思是最低可接受的限度。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“However much we learn from things going wrong, we will never become the best decision-makers. This finding comes from a mathematical game that simulates (模拟) a large economy, and suggests we may need to rethink assumptions built into economic theories.(无论我们从失败中学到多少，我们都永远不会成为最好的决策者。这一发现来自一个模拟大型经济体的数学游戏，它表明我们可能需要重新思考建立在经济理论中的假设。)”以及最后一段“Bouchaud says the game model is too simple to be immediately adopted for making real-world predictions, but he sees the study as a challenge to economists to drop many assumptions that currently go into theorizing processes, like merchants choosing suppliers or banks setting interest rates.( Bouchaud说，游戏模型过于简单，无法立即用于现实世界的预测，但他认为这项研究是对经济学家的挑战，要求他们放弃目前理论化过程中的许多假设，比如商人选择供应商或银行设定利率。)”可知，本文主要讲述在失败中学到的经验，并不能使我们成为好的决策者，在作经济决策时不能依赖过往的经验，因此需要通过重新评估经济假设。所以文章最好的标题是A“通过博弈模型重新评估经济假设”。故选A。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Whether you’re in high school or college, presentations have become an essential part of academic life.

He lived in a small town where chess was unpopular. The lack of proper coaches or training facilities nearby didn’t dampen his spirits at all, for his fascination with the game knew no bounds. Every day after school, he would dash home eagerly and set up his old chessboard. For hours on end, he would study books borrowed from the library, his eyes scanning the pages attentively in an attempt to absorb new strategies. He practiced against himself religiously, moving the pieces back and forth, his mind deeply engaged in analyzing each move with care. When he took part in local chess matches, he was frequently underestimated. The tournament hall was filled with noisy people. The other players, armed with better resources and professional training, laughed at his simple techniques. In one particular tournament, as he sat at the table for his first game, he could feel the eyes on him. His opponent made quick and decisive opening moves. Jackson, though nervous, focused hard. But soon, he found himself in a difficult position as his opponent’s pieces advanced aggressively. He lost the game and was very disappointed. In the next game, the situation was no better. His opponent’s fingers moved swiftly over the pieces, while Jackson’s hands were a bit sweaty as he tried to keep up, with his strategies easily countered (对抗). The taunts (嘲弄) of his opponents rang in his ears, but he refused to be disheartened. During the break, he sat alone in the corner, replaying the games in his mind to identify his mistakes. Realizing the need to be more creative and bold in his move, he immersed himself deeper into analyzing of the games of the chess masters for inspiration. With every page he read and every move he analyzed, his determination grew like a burning fire. 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。 Paragraph 1: With a new-found determination, Jackson told himself that winners never quit. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: In the final moments of the game, the pressure was intense. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 With a new-found determination, Jack told himself that winners never quit. He came back with a determined look. In the next game, he started to make unexpected and brilliant opening moves. His opponents were caught off guard. He carefully calculated each step, not allowing his previous failures to cloud his judgment. When his opponent made a challenging move, instead of panicking, he analyzed it calmly and found a way to counter it. His pieces moved across the board with precision, slowly but surely gaining an advantage. As the game progressed, he stayed focused, ignoring the whispers around him. In the final moments of the game, the pressure was intense. Jack’s hands were steady as he made the decisive move. He won the game, and a small smile appeared on his face. This victory gave him the confidence he needed. In the following games, he continued to play with great skill and determination. Even when facing tough opponents again, he remembered his struggle and the motto that winners never quit. With each victory, he grew more confident, and eventually, he won the tournament, proving that with unwavering determination, one can overcome any obstacle in the pursuit of their dreams. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了有一个名叫杰克逊的小男孩，他渴望成为一名伟大的国际象棋选手，每天都会练习象棋。在一次特别的比赛中，因为对手的棋子攻势很大，他遇到了困难。但是杰克没有放弃，而是冷静应对，最后赢得了比赛。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“怀着一种新的决心，杰克告诉自己，成功者永不放弃”可知，第一段可描写杰克是如何冷静应对逐渐取得了优势的。 ②由第二段首句内容“在比赛的最后时刻，压力非常大”可知，第二段可描写杰克赢得了比赛以及杰克的感悟。 2.续写线索：坚定决心——冷静分析——逐渐取得优势——赢得比赛——杰克的感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①继续：progress/go on ②克服：overcome/get over 情绪类 ①专注的：focused/attentive ②坚定的：unwavering/ committed 【点睛】[高分句型1] As the game progressed, he stayed focused, ignoring the whispers around him.

RUNROCKNROLL.com B There was an old bookstore on the corner of my street. I discovered it one sunny afternoon when I was exploring the neighborhood. The moment I pushed open the door, a unique aroma (芳香) embraced me. The shelves were stuffed with books of every genre and age. I could see the spines of well-loved classics, rare first editions, and forgotten treasures. The owner, a middle-aged man with glasses and a warm smile, was busy tidying up. He greeted me and told me to feel free to look around. I started browsing and was immediately fascinated by a collection of old travelogues that seemed to hold the secrets of far-off lands. Over the following weeks, I became a regular. I would spend hours there, losing myself in the pages of different books. Sometimes, the owner would recommend a particular book based on our conversations. His knowledge and passion for literature were truly inspiring. However, change was on the horizon. The city was developing rapidly, and new, modern shops were replacing the old ones. One day, I noticed a sense of gloom in the bookstore. The owner informed me that due to the skyrocketing rent and the competition from online bookstores, he was struggling to keep the doors open. It seemed that this little shelter of literature might soon disappear. I was determined not to let that happen. I reached out to my schoolmates and local community groups. We organized a book fair in front of the bookstore, inviting local authors and artists to participate. We also set up an online crowdfunding page to collect donations. People from all over the neighborhood came to show their support. They bought books,donated money, and shared their own memories of the bookstore. Thanks to the collective efforts, we managed to raise enough funds to cover the rent for a while. The bookstore survived this crisis. A community’s love and support can preserve something truly valuable. The old bookstore was not just a place to buy books; it was a cornerstone of our community’s cultural and emotional heritage, and it was worth every bit of the fight to save it. 4. What caught the writer’s attention the most during his first visit to the bookstore? A. The packed book shelves. B. The ancient travel accounts. C. The friendly and devoted shop owner. D. The rich collection of literature classics. 5. Why did the bookstore face the risk of shutting down? A. Poor management of the store. B. Rising rent and e-commerce pressure. C. A decrease in people’s interest in literature. D. The run-down condition and out-of-style decorations. 6. Which of the following best describes the writer? A. Warm-hearted and influential. B. Inspiring and economical. C. Reserved and passionate. D. Ambitious and knowledgeable. 7. What of the following does the writer mainly emphasize in the passage? A. The crucial role of joint efforts in conserving cultural treasure. B. The negative impact of urban expansion on personal hobbies. C. The marked advantage of small local businesses over large ones. D. The unavoidable replacement of old traditions by modern trends. C What if there is no blood left in the bank when patients need an immediate transfusion (输血)? Scientists in Britain plan to become the first in the world to produce unlimited amounts of human blood from embryonic stem cells (胚胎干细胞) for emergency transfusions. A major research project is to be announced this week, which will end in three years with the first transfusions into human volunteers of synthetic (人造的) blood made from the stem cells of embryos. It could help to save the lives of anyone from victims of traffic accidents to soldiers on a battlefield by completely changing the present blood transfusion services, which have to rely on human donors to provide a constant supply of fresh blood. Britain will play a vital role in the global race to develop synthetic blood. The Wellcome Trust, the world’s biggest medical research charity, has promised £3m towards the cost of the project. A spokesman for the Wellcome Trust said that an announcement is likely to be made in the coming week. The project will be led by Professor Marc Turner of Edinburgh University, who has been involved in studies investigating how to ensure donated blood is infection-free. Researchers will test human embryos to find those that can develop into the “O-negative” blood group, which is the universal donor group whose blood can be transfused into anyone. This blood group is relatively rare, accounting for about 7% of the population, but it could be produced in unlimited quantities from embryonic stem cells in the laboratory. Such synthetic blood would have the benefit of not being at risk of being infected with viruses such as HIV and the human form of “mad cow” disease. The project was held up because of the difficulty of finding funding for “translational” research that attempts to take scientific studies in the laboratory into the earliest stages of commercial development.

This finding comes from a mathematical game that simulates (模拟) a large economy, and suggests we may need to rethink assumptions built into economic theories. In such theories, people are typically represented as reasonable agents who learn from past experiences to enhance their performance, eventually reaching a stable state in which they know how to maximize their earnings. To test whether economists are correct to assume that learning from the past can help people avoid chaos rather than stability, Garnier-Brun and his colleagues invented a mathematical model for a game featuring hundreds of simulated players. Each player can choose between two actions, like buying or selling a stock. They also interact with each other.and the players’ decision-making is influenced by what they have done before — meaning they are able to learn from experience. In different game scenarios (设想), the researchers expected that the game would always result in chaos, with players unable to learn how to optimize their performance. Economic theory would also suggest that, given the right set of parameters (参数), the players would settle into a stable state where they had mastered the game — but the researchers found this wasn’t really the case. The most likely outcome was a state that never settled. Team member Jean-Philippe Bouchaud says that in the absence of one centralized,god-like player who could coordinate everyone, regular players could only learn how to reach “satisficing” states. That is a level that satisfied minimum expectations but not much more.Players gained more than they would have done by playing at random, so learning wasn’t useless, but they still gained less than they would have if past experience had allowed them to truly optimize their performance. Bouchaud says the game model is too simple to be immediately adopted for making real-world predictions but he sees the study as a challenge to economists to drop many assumptions that currently go into theorizing processes, like merchants choosing suppliers or banks setting interest rates. 12. What effect of past experiences do economists suppose? A Better decisions and higher income. B. A state of confusion and disorder. C. Ignorance of future opportunities. D. Decreased interactions between people. 13. Why did Garnier-Brun and his colleagues create a mathematical model? A. To simulate a large economy. B. To predict future economic trends. C. To analyze interactions between players. D. To assess the assumption of economists. 14. The underlined word “satisficing” in Paragraph 5 most probably means______. A. highly satisfying B. constantly improving C. minimally acceptable D. completely unpredictable 15. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Reevaluating Economic Assumptions through a Game Model B. A Mathematical Game Model for Simulating Large Economies C. Challenges in Predicting Economic Stability through Games D. The Importance of Learning from Experience in Economics 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Whether you’re in high school or college, presentations have become an essential part of academic life.

He lived in a small town where chess was unpopular. The lack of proper coaches or training facilities nearby didn’t dampen his spirits at all, for his fascination with the game knew no bounds. Every day after school, he would dash home eagerly and set up his old chessboard. For hours on end, he would study books borrowed from the library, his eyes scanning the pages attentively in an attempt to absorb new strategies. He practiced against himself religiously, moving the pieces back and forth, his mind deeply engaged in analyzing each move with care. When he took part in local chess matches, he was frequently underestimated. The tournament hall was filled with noisy people. The other players, armed with better resources and professional training, laughed at his simple techniques. In one particular tournament as he sat at the table for his first game, he could feel the eyes on him. His opponent made quick and decisive opening moves. Jackson, though nervous, focused hard. But soon, he found himself in a difficult position as his opponent’s pieces advanced aggressively. He lost the game and was very disappointed. In the next game, the situation was no better. His opponent’s fingers moved swiftly over the pieces, while Jackson’s hands were a bit sweaty as he tried to keep up, with his strategies easily countered (对抗). The taunts (嘲弄) of his opponents rang in his ears, but he refused to be disheartened. During the break, he sat alone in the corner, replaying the games in his mind to identify his mistakes. Realizing the need to be more creative and bold in his move, he immersed himself deeper into analyzing of the games of the chess masters for inspiration. With every page he read and every move he analyzed, his determination grew like a burning fire. 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。 Paragraph 1: With a new-found determination, Jackson told himself that winners never quit. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: In the final moments of the game, the pressure was intense. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
