He recalls an experiment that he saw as a child: A plastic water bottle was stuck near its base such that a steady stream of water flowed out and downward under the force of gravity. A light shined through the hole in the bottle and, to Shastri’s amazement, it didn’t continue on a horizontal path. Instead, it bent downward with the stream of water. “I was just so completely blown away by this experiment,” he says. Since then, Shastri has been thinking about how light can be controlled, while also exploring other research interests. In college, he worked with a professor who was researching machine learning. As a postdoc at Princeton University, Shastri met physicist Paul Prucnal. He told Shastri about his research creating a light that behaves like a biological neuron (神经元), and how the team was looking to compute with such light. That idea caught Shastri’s attention. Though researchers have used light to send, store and process data in the lab, photonic (光子的) computing is still at its early stage. Shastri has set out to push those boundaries. He engineers, builds and performs experiments on chip-sized (芯片大小的) photonic devices. His team began by studying simpler devices similar to a single neuron, analyzing how they could function like a biological neuron. Years later, in a yet-to-be-published work, the researchers have demonstrated that a chip with 100,000 neuronlike components can perform 120 billion operations per second, about 40 times faster than the average electronic computer. Daniel Brunner, a computing researcher at FEMTO-ST Institute, praised Shastri’s groundbreaking work. “I can’t even count the publications where he basically laid the foundation” for using photonics to create physical neural networks, Brunner says. Shastri may be set on transforming computing, but his work is motivated by a decades-old fascination with light and its properties. “I have been very lucky to be able to do something,” he says, “that has always been my childhood dream.” 4. What attracted Shastri most about the experiment in paragraph 1? A. Effects of gravity on objects. B. Properties of plastic products. C. The pressure of flowing water. D. The phenomenon of light bending. 5. What did Prucnal inspire Shastri to do? A. Take an interest in light. B. Analyse the function of neurons. C. Research into photonic computing. D. Learn about machine learning. 6. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. Challenges Shastri faces in developing the chip. B. The practical application of photonic computing. C The computing performance of electronic computers. D. Achievements Shastri’s team makes in photonic computing. 7. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. The Wonders of Light B. The Light Pursuer’s Journey C. In the Footsteps of Scientists D. Development of Computing Technology C Grey reef sharks are having to abandon the coral reefs they call home. Scientists, using a combination of satellite remote sensing and a network of sound receivers on the seabed, have discovered sharks are deserting coral reefs at times of environmental stress from high temperatures that can lead to coral bleaching (白化) events. An international research team attached sound trackers to more than 120 sharks and installed receivers around coral reefs to monitor shark movements in the Indian Ocean between 2013 to 2020. This has important consequences for both the sharks and the reefs. The research provides the first evidence of how reef change in response to environmental stress, something that is becoming both more extreme and more frequent, is affecting the movement of sharks. Grey reef sharks are a common, resident predator (猎食者) to the reefs of the Indo-Pacific, risking away from the reef to feed. Many are choosing to move into offshore, deeper and cooler waters, which is concerning. Many reefs around the globe have already seen significant declines in sharks due to exploitation (开采) and this finding has the potential to accelerate the trend. Importantly, sharks moving away impacts the fragile balance in reef ecosystems. As large predators, grey reef sharks play a very important role in coral reef ecosystems. They maintain a delicately balanced food web on the reef and they also cycle nutrients onto coral reefs from deeper waters where they often feed. A loss of sharks, and the nutrients they bring, could affect the recovery of reefs during periods of high environmental stress. As climate change brings increasing uncertainty and more and more frequent extreme stress events, the important ecological role these predators play on coral reefs is likely to change, as they spend more time away from the reefs they are attached to. The implications of this are not yet fully understood but given the complex balance of species and nutrient interactions that occur on coral reefs, there will certainly be substantial changes. 8. What is the main reason behind the changes in the reefs? A. Global warming. B. Ocean pollution. C. Illegal hunting. D. Ecological imbalance. 9. What does the underlined word “trend” refer to in paragraph 2? A. The hunting of sharks. B. The destruction of reefs. C. The exploitation of human. D. The reduction in shark’s number. 10. What’s the result of sharks moving away? A. Reducing the nutrients in the sea. B. Adding to the environmental stress. C. Speeding up the recovery of the reefs. D. Breaking the undersea ecological balance. 11. What is this passage mainly about? A. Sharks change their dieting habits. B. Coral reefs are left behind by sharks. C. Sharks are faced with predatory threats. D. Coral reefs’ damage draws public attention. D For too long, we’ve been living on the edge of burnout, with to-do lists growing longer, calendars full, and deadlines that seem never-ending. It’s not a secret that busyness has been worn like a mark of honor, while moments of down time are seen as unproductive. But if there’s no time to breathe or room to think, how are we able to come up with new ideas, let alone carry them out? I didn’t realize how deep-rooted this lifestyle had become for me until I stepped into self-employment in 2023. Balancing busy periods with quieter ones unexpectedly brought anxiety and self-judgment instead of the anticipated relief to pause and reflect. However, the tide is turning in the world of work: there’s a growing pushback against non-stop demands, and increased awareness about the benefits — including improved concentration, creativity and job satisfaction-of doing one thing at a time. According to Marc Zao-Sanders, author of Timeboxing, multitasking is the attempt to attend to two things at once, for example firing off a few emails while sitting in a meeting. The pity here is that you may end up doing a poor job of both, and enjoy neither. But it’s actually a little more complex than this. If one of the tasks is familiar to you and doesn’t demand too much of you cognitively (认知地), it may well be that you can take on a second task at the same time. The main issue is thinking you can do both at once for those tasks where you can’t. This is both unproductive and can easily feel frustrated. The phrase “multitasking” has been adopted by all sorts of typically high-achieving people and a mark of status. But our brains cannot complete tasks at the same time. They are completed in a sequence. Multitasking is tiring us out more quickly and making us less efficient. So, let’s bid farewell to the era of handling a hundred things at once. 12. What’s people’s common view to busyness? A. It is a way to generate new ideas. B. It shows that people are less productive. C. It reflects people’s poor time-management. D. It is a symbol of efficiency and excellence. 13. How does the author feel after she became self-employed? A. Relaxed. B. Panicked. C. Uneasy. D. Stress-free. 14. What can we learn about multitasking from paragraph 3? A. It can reduce our productivity. B. It can weaken our cognitive ability. C. It makes us creative and concentrated. D. It is essential in today’s fast-pace world. 15. What does the author suggest in the passage? A. Following high-achieving people. B. Working one task at a time. C. Raising the efficiency of multitasking. D. Challenging our brain capacity. 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 You might feel like you’re walking on a tight rope all the time trying to be “good enough”.

After losing his job during the pandemic, he struggled to make ends meet. Following the passing of his mother and an eviction (驱逐) from his apartment, James became homeless, spending his days working odd jobs and his nights in local shelters. Despite these challenges, James maintained a positive outlook. He often volunteered at a nearby soup kitchen which was designed to provide food for the old and disabled, where he found comfort in helping others. Every day, he would rise with a sense of purpose, a rare quality that seemed to shine through even the darkest of times. James frequently shared his dream of one day having a home to call his own and getting back on his feet, inspiring others with his determination. Recently, a local news station featured James in a column about homelessness in Seattle, sharing his inspiring story which moved the hearts of many viewers. They made contact with him, wanting to help him realize his dream of having a stable place to live in. One day, a surprising twist unfolded. A local businesswoman, inspired by James’s perseverance, decided to pay for his first month’s rent and helped him land a job at her organization. But the ultimate surprise came during the rent signing. In an emotional moment, the businesswoman revealed that she had purchased a small house in a nearby neighborhood for James. Tears filled James’s eyes as he realized the power of the kindness returned to him. “I never expected such a thing could happen to me,” James said. But he turned down her offering politely and said: “I appreciate your generosity more than you can imagine, but I need to rebuild my life on my own. There are still many other homeless people needing your help.” Inspired by his words, she set up a non-profit organization in the small house. 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。 James was invited to take charge of it a few days later. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ James’s efforts did not go unnoticed. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1—5BCACB 6—10CACBB 11—15CABAC 16—20BABAC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024—2025学年度第一学期期末考试 高三英语 (考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：150分) 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号等填写在答题卡上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将答题卡交回。 第一部分 听力 (共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案划在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节 (共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 例: How much is the shirt?

He recalls an experiment that he saw as a child: A plastic water bottle was stuck near its base such that a steady stream of water flowed out and downward under the force of gravity. A light shined through the hole in the bottle and, to Shastri’s amazement, it didn’t continue on a horizontal path. Instead, it bent downward with the stream of water. “I was just so completely blown away by this experiment,” he says. Since then, Shastri has been thinking about how light can be controlled, while also exploring other research interests. In college, he worked with a professor who was researching machine learning. As a postdoc at Princeton University, Shastri met physicist Paul Prucnal. He told Shastri about his research creating a light that behaves like a biological neuron (神经元), and how the team was looking to compute with such light. That idea caught Shastri’s attention. Though researchers have used light to send, store and process data in the lab, photonic (光子的) computing is still at its early stage. Shastri has set out to push those boundaries. He engineers, builds and performs experiments on chip-sized (芯片大小的) photonic devices. His team began by studying simpler devices similar to a single neuron, analyzing how they could function like a biological neuron. Years later, in a yet-to-be-published work, the researchers have demonstrated that a chip with 100,000 neuronlike components can perform 120 billion operations per second, about 40 times faster than the average electronic computer. Daniel Brunner, a computing researcher at FEMTO-ST Institute, praised Shastri’s groundbreaking work. “I can’t even count the publications where he basically laid the foundation” for using photonics to create physical neural networks, Brunner says. Shastri may be set on transforming computing, but his work is motivated by a decades-old fascination with light and its properties. “I have been very lucky to be able to do something,” he says, “that has always been my childhood dream.” 4. What attracted Shastri most about the experiment in paragraph 1? A. Effects of gravity on objects. B. Properties of plastic products. C. The pressure of flowing water. D. The phenomenon of light bending. 5. What did Prucnal inspire Shastri to do? A. Take an interest in light. B. Analyse the function of neurons. C. Research into photonic computing. D. Learn about machine learning. 6. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. Challenges Shastri faces in developing the chip. B. The practical application of photonic computing. C. The computing performance of electronic computers. D. Achievements Shastri’s team makes in photonic computing. 7. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. The Wonders of Light B. The Light Pursuer’s Journey C. In the Footsteps of Scientists D. Development of Computing Technology 【答案】4 D 5. C 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述Shastri从小对光的兴趣，到后来研究光子计算，并取得成就的过程。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“He recalls an experiment that he saw as a child: A plastic water bottle was stuck near its base such that a steady stream of water flowed out and downward under the force of gravity. A light shined through the hole in the bottle and, to Shastri’s amazement, it didn’t continue on a horizontal path. Instead, it bent downward with the stream of water. “I was just so completely blown away by this experiment,” he says.(他回忆起小时候看到一个实验：一个塑料水瓶被卡在底部附近，在重力的作用下，一股水流稳定地流出并向下流动。一束光从瓶子的洞里照了进来，令沙斯特里惊讶的是，它并没有沿着水平的路径继续前进。相反，它随着水流向下弯曲。‘我完全被这个实验震撼了，’他说。)”可知，第一段中提及的实验最吸引Shastri的是光的弯曲现象。故选D项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“He told Shastri about his research creating a light that behaves like a biological neuron (神经元), and how the team was looking to compute with such light. That idea caught Shastri’s attention.(他告诉沙斯特里，他的研究创造了一种行为类似生物神经元的光，以及该团队如何利用这种光进行计算。这个想法引起了沙斯特里的注意)”可知，Prucnal激励Shastri做光子计算研究。故选C项。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“He engineers, builds and performs experiments on chip-sized (芯片大小的) photonic devices.

Scientists, using a combination of satellite remote sensing and a network of sound receivers on the seabed, have discovered sharks are deserting coral reefs at times of environmental stress from high temperatures that can lead to coral bleaching (白化) events. An international research team attached sound trackers to more than 120 sharks and installed receivers around coral reefs to monitor shark movements in the Indian Ocean between 2013 to 2020. This has important consequences for both the sharks and the reefs. The research provides the first evidence of how reef change in response to environmental stress, something that is becoming both more extreme and more frequent, is affecting the movement of sharks. Grey reef sharks are a common, resident predator (猎食者) to the reefs of the Indo-Pacific, risking away from the reef to feed. Many are choosing to move into offshore, deeper and cooler waters, which is concerning. Many reefs around the globe have already seen significant declines in sharks due to exploitation (开采) and this finding has the potential to accelerate the trend. Importantly, sharks moving away impacts the fragile balance in reef ecosystems. As large predators, grey reef sharks play a very important role in coral reef ecosystems. They maintain a delicately balanced food web on the reef and they also cycle nutrients onto coral reefs from deeper waters where they often feed. A loss of sharks, and the nutrients they bring, could affect the recovery of reefs during periods of high environmental stress. As climate change brings increasing uncertainty and more and more frequent extreme stress events, the important ecological role these predators play on coral reefs is likely to change, as they spend more time away from the reefs they are attached to. The implications of this are not yet fully understood but given the complex balance of species and nutrient interactions that occur on coral reefs, there will certainly be substantial changes. 8. What is the main reason behind the changes in the reefs? A. Global warming. B. Ocean pollution. C. Illegal hunting. D. Ecological imbalance. 9. What does the underlined word “trend” refer to in paragraph 2? A. The hunting of sharks. B. The destruction of reefs. C. The exploitation of human. D. The reduction in shark’s number. 10. What’s the result of sharks moving away? A. Reducing the nutrients in the sea. B. Adding to the environmental stress. C. Speeding up the recovery of the reefs. D. Breaking the undersea ecological balance. 11. What is this passage mainly about? A. Sharks change their dieting habits. B. Coral reefs are left behind by sharks. C. Sharks are faced with predatory threats. D. Coral reefs’ damage draws public attention. 【答案】8. A 9. D 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过卫星遥感技术和海底声纳接收器网络等科学手段，介绍了灰礁鲨因环境变化而离开珊瑚礁的现象，并探讨了这一现象对鲨鱼和珊瑚礁生态系统的影响。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Scientists, using a combination of satellite remote sensing and a network of sound receivers on the seabed, have discovered sharks are deserting coral reefs at times of environmental stress from high temperatures that can lead to coral bleaching (白化) events.(科学家们结合使用卫星遥感技术以及海床上的一系列声音接收器，发现鲨鱼在面临因高温引发的环境压力时会离开珊瑚礁，而高温可能会导致珊瑚白化现象的发生。)”可知，珊瑚礁变化的主要原因是高温，而高温是由全球变暖、气候变化等因素导致的。故选A。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词所在句“Many reefs around the globe have already seen significant declines in sharks due to exploitation (开采) and this finding has the potential to accelerate the trend.(由于过度捕捞，全球许多珊瑚礁区域的鲨鱼数量已经大幅减少，而这一发现可能会加速这一趋势。)”可推测，这里“due to exploitation”表明由于过度捕捞（开采），全球许多珊瑚礁区域的鲨鱼数量已经大幅减少。接着说“this finding”（即鲨鱼因环境压力离开珊瑚礁这一发现）有加速“the trend”的可能性。所以结合前文可知，“the trend”指的就是鲨鱼数量减少这一趋势。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Importantly, sharks moving away impacts the fragile balance in reef ecosystems.(重要的是，鲨鱼的离开会影响珊瑚礁生态系统中脆弱的平衡。)”可知，鲨鱼的离开会影响珊瑚礁生态系统中脆弱的平衡，即破坏了海底生态平衡。故选D。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Scientists, using a combination of satellite remote sensing and a network of sound receivers on the seabed, have discovered sharks are deserting coral reefs at times of environmental stress from high temperatures that can lead to coral bleaching (白化) events.(科学家们结合使用卫星遥感技术以及海床上的一系列声音接收器，发现鲨鱼在面临因高温引发的环境压力时会离开珊瑚礁，而高温可能会导致珊瑚白化现象的发生。)”以及全文内容可知，文章开篇指出灰礁鲨正不得不放弃它们的珊瑚礁家园，接着详细阐述了科学家通过研究发现鲨鱼在环境压力下会离开珊瑚礁，以及鲨鱼离开对自身、珊瑚礁生态系统平衡等方面带来的影响。选项B“Coral reefs are left behind by sharks.(珊瑚礁被鲨鱼遗弃)”符合文章主旨。故选B。 D For too long, we’ve been living on the edge of burnout, with to-do lists growing longer, calendars full, and deadlines that seem never-ending. It’s not a secret that busyness has been worn like a mark of honor, while moments of down time are seen as unproductive. But if there’s no time to breathe or room to think, how are we able to come up with new ideas, let alone carry them out? I didn’t realize how deep-rooted this lifestyle had become for me until I stepped into self-employment in 2023. Balancing busy periods with quieter ones unexpectedly brought anxiety and self-judgment instead of the anticipated relief to pause and reflect. However, the tide is turning in the world of work: there’s a growing pushback against non-stop demands, and increased awareness about the benefits — including improved concentration, creativity and job satisfaction-of doing one thing at a time. According to Marc Zao-Sanders, author of Timeboxing, multitasking is the attempt to attend to two things at once, for example firing off a few emails while sitting in a meeting. The pity here is that you may end up doing a poor job of both, and enjoy neither. But it’s actually a little more complex than this. If one of the tasks is familiar to you and doesn’t demand too much of you cognitively (认知地), it may well be that you can take on a second task at the same time. The main issue is thinking you can do both at once for those tasks where you can’t. This is both unproductive and can easily feel frustrated. The phrase “multitasking” has been adopted by all sorts of typically high-achieving people and a mark of status. But our brains cannot complete tasks at the same time. They are completed in a sequence. Multitasking is tiring us out more quickly and making us less efficient. So, let’s bid farewell to the era of handling a hundred things at once. 12. What’s people’s common view to busyness? A. It is a way to generate new ideas. B. It shows that people are less productive. C. It reflects people’s poor time-management. D. It is a symbol of efficiency and excellence. 13. How does the author feel after she became self-employed? A. Relaxed. B. Panicked. C. Uneasy. D. Stress-free. 14. What can we learn about multitasking from paragraph 3? A. It can reduce our productivity. B. It can weaken our cognitive ability. C. It makes us creative and concentrated. D. It is essential in today’s fast-pace world. 15. What does the author suggest in the passage? A. Following high-achieving people. B. Working one task at a time. C. Raising the efficiency of multitasking. D. Challenging our brain capacity. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了现代社会中人们普遍存在的过度忙碌和“多任务处理”现象，以及这种生活方式对个人创造力和工作效率的负面影响。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“It’s not a secret that busyness has been worn like a mark of honor, while moments of down time are seen as unproductive.(忙碌一直被当作一种荣誉的象征，而闲暇时光则被视为毫无成效，这早已不是什么秘密。)”可知，忙碌一直被当作一种荣誉的象征，而闲暇时光则被视为毫无成效。这意味着在人们的普遍观念中，忙碌是一种值得骄傲的事情，可理解为忙碌象征着效率和优秀。故选D。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“I didn’t realize how deep-rooted this lifestyle had become for me until I stepped into self-employment in 2023. Balancing busy periods with quieter ones unexpectedly brought anxiety and self-judgment instead of the anticipated relief to pause and reflect.(直到2023年我开始自主创业，我才意识到这种生活方式在我身上已经根深蒂固到了何种程度。原本预期在忙碌时段与清闲时段之间取得平衡后，能获得喘息和反思的机会，从而感到轻松，可没想到却带来了焦虑和自我评判。)”可知，作者在2023年开始自主创业后，原本预期在忙碌和清闲之间取得平衡能获得喘息和反思的轻松感，但没想到却带来了焦虑和自我评判，作者自主创业后感到不安。故选C。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“According to Marc Zao-Sanders, author of Timeboxing, multitasking is the attempt to attend to two things at once, for example firing off a few emails while sitting in a meeting. The pity here is that you may end up doing a poor job of both, and enjoy neither.(根据《时间箱管理》一书的作者Marc Zao-Sanders的说法，“多任务处理”指的是试图同时处理两件事情，例如在开会时快速发送几封电子邮件。遗憾的是，这样做的结果可能是两件事都没做好，而且两件事都体验不佳。)”以及“This is both unproductive and can easily feel frustrated.(这样做不仅效率低下，还很容易让人感到沮丧。)”可知，多任务处理可能导致两件事都做不好，既没有效率还容易让人沮丧，所以会降低我们的工作效率。故选A。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Multitasking is tiring us out more quickly and making us less efficient. So, let’s bid farewell to the era of handling a hundred things at once.(多任务处理让我们更快地感到疲惫，也降低了我们的效率。所以，让我们告别一次处理一百件事情的时代吧。)”可知，作者强调了多任务处理的坏处，结合最后一句告别一次处理多项任务的时代，可推断出作者建议一次只做一项任务。故选B。 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 You might feel like you’re walking on a tight rope all the time, trying to be “good enough”.

After losing his job during the pandemic, he struggled to make ends meet. Following the passing of his mother and an eviction (驱逐) from his apartment, James became homeless, spending his days working odd jobs and his nights in local shelters. Despite these challenges, James maintained a positive outlook. He often volunteered at a nearby soup kitchen which was designed to provide food for the old and disabled, where he found comfort in helping others. Every day, he would rise with a sense of purpose, a rare quality that seemed to shine through even the darkest of times. James frequently shared his dream of one day having a home to call his own and getting back on his feet, inspiring others with his determination. Recently, a local news station featured James in a column about homelessness in Seattle, sharing his inspiring story which moved the hearts of many viewers. They made contact with him, wanting to help him realize his dream of having a stable place to live in. One day, a surprising twist unfolded. A local businesswoman, inspired by James’s perseverance, decided to pay for his first month’s rent and helped him land a job at her organization. But the ultimate surprise came during the rent signing. In an emotional moment, the businesswoman revealed that she had purchased a small house in a nearby neighborhood for James. Tears filled James’s eyes as he realized the power of the kindness returned to him. “I never expected such a thing could happen to me,” James said. But he turned down her offering politely and said: “I appreciate your generosity more than you can imagine, but I need to rebuild my life on my own. There are still many other homeless people needing your help.” Inspired by his words, she set up a non-profit organization in the small house. 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。 James was invited to take charge of it a few days later. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ James’s efforts did not go unnoticed. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 James was invited to take charge of it a few days later. With unwavering dedication, he transformed the small house into a community hub. His firsthand experience enabled him to design practical programs—job training workshops, counseling sessions, and temporary accommodation services. Every weekend, James organized donation drives, encouraging locals to contribute clothes and groceries. His compassionate leadership gradually attracted more volunteers. One afternoon, he noticed a familiar face among newcomers—a teenager he’d once shared sandwiches with at the shelter. “You taught me kindness isn’t about receiving,” the boy smiled, holding a box of supplies. James nodded, warmth swelling in his chest. James’s efforts did not go unnoticed. Local newspapers featured his initiative, sparking citywide support. Within months, the organization expanded to three neighboring towns. The businesswoman proudly allocated funds for its growth while James secured stable housing through his salary. At the annual charity gala, he stood beside donors, now equals in rebuilding lives. Years later, the original small house displayed a plaque: “Where dignity begins.” James often lingered there, remembering how rejecting one gift had multiplied hope for countless others. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了詹姆斯经历了很多困难，但保持积极态度，后来得到了一位女商人的帮助，但他拒绝了房子，女商人因此成立了非营利组织。詹姆斯把这个组织管理得很好，得到了很多人支持，而詹姆斯也因此改善了生活。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“几天后，詹姆斯被邀请来负责这件事。”可知，第一段可描写詹姆斯如何管理这个非营利组织，帮助其他无家可归的人，可能包括他的工作内容、遇到的挑战或成功案例。 ②由第二段首句内容“詹姆斯的努力并没有被忽视。”可知，第二段可描写他的努力带来的影响，比如更多人加入，组织扩大，或者他个人生活的改善，比如找到稳定的住所或工作，呼应他之前的梦想。 2.续写线索：负责组织——管理组织——得到认可——被报道——生活改善——詹姆斯感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 注意到：notice/take notice of 吸引：attract/appeal 扩大：expand/extend 情绪类 有同情心的：compassionate/merciful 坚定：unwavering/firm 【点睛】[高分句型1] Every weekend, James organized donation drives, encouraging locals to contribute clothes and groceries.
