It was the first instance that informed us that he had Alzheimer’s disease (阿尔茨海默病). Over the past 12 years, his worsening condition and his wandering have been worrying us. My aunt struggled to stay awake at night to watch over him, but often failed. Concerned about my aunt’s well-being and my grandfather’s safety, I searched widely for a solution, but in vain. Then two years ago, while looking after my grandfather, I was impressed by the moment when his foot landed on the floor. Why don’t I put a pressure sensor on the bottom of his foot? Once he stepped onto the floor and out of the bed, the pressure sensor would detect an increase in pressure caused by body weight and then wirelessly send an alarm to the caregiver’s smartphone. My desire to create a sensor-based technology was born. When laying out my plan, I faced three main challenges. First, I had to create a wearable sensor. After testing different materials like rubber, which was too thick, I decided to print a film sensor with pressure-sensitive ink particles (颗粒). Next, I had to design a wearable wireless circuit. Thankfully, I was able to find out about the Bluetooth low energy technology, which produces little power and can be driven by a coin-sized battery. Lastly, I learnt to code (编码) a smartphone app to turn the caregiver’s smartphone into a remote monitor. Integrating these components, I successfully created two models: a built-in sock sensor and a re-attachable one. Having tested it on my grandfather with 100% success in detecting his wandering, I beta-tested it at California care facilities last summer. Now, I’m using response from tests to improve it into a marketable product. One thing I’ll never forget is when my device first caught my grandfather’s wandering at night. At that moment, I was really struck by the power of technology to change lives for the better. 4. What drove the author to seek a solution? A. His knowledge about Alzheimer’s. B. The encouragement from his aunt. C. His worries about treating patients. D. The struggle of tending his grandfather. 5. What is the purpose of detecting the pressure under a patient’s feet? A. To measure his weight. B. To monitor his motion. C. To record his walking pace. D. To estimate his health status. 6. Why did the author choose a printed film sensor? A. It’s thin. B. It’s energy-saving. C. It’s coin-sized. D. It’s wireless. 7. What is the best title of the text? A. Protecting Wandering Loved Ones B. How Technology Empowers Lives C. The Challenges of Alzheimer’s Disease Care D. A Family’s Struggle with Alzheimer’s Disease C Researchers exploring the lightless landscape of the Pacific Ocean floor think they’ve observed how oxygen is produced on Earth. Until now, it was thought that oxygen was created only through photosynthesis, a process that requires sunlight. But the discovery casts doubt on that idea and raises new questions about the origins of life itself. The research team in Scotland, believe oxygen is being produced by electrically charged material called polymetallic nodules (多金属结核), which range in size from a small particle to about the dimensions of a potato. These nodules — “effectively batteries in a rock,” Sweetman said — may use their electric charge to split seawater into hydrogen and oxygen in a process called seawater electrolysis (电解). Researchers conducted tests on the seafloor and also collected samples to test aboveground, and they came up with the same result: that oxygen levels increased near the polymetallic nodules. Seawater can be split into hydrogen and oxygen with 1.5 volts (伏特) of electricity, which is the amount in an AA battery. Researchers found that some of the nodules possessed as much as 0.95 volts of electricity, and multiple nodules together produced enough voltages. Polymetallic nodules contain metals such as manganese, nickel and cobalt, which can be used to make the lithium-ion batteries used in consumer electronics, appliances and electric vehicles. Franz Geiger, a Northwestern University chemistry professor, said that there may be enough polymetallic nodules in an area of the Pacific Ocean called the Clarion-Clipperton Zone to meet global energy demands for decades after. But mining would have to be conducted in a way that did not remove oxygen for life forms in that zone. “A few years ago, a team of marine (海洋) biologists went back to those areas mined 40 years ago and found essentially no life,” Geiger said. “And then a few hundred meters over to the left and right, where the nodules were untouched, plenty of life.” 8. Why is the discovery significant? A. It casts doubt on the existence of “dark oxygen.” B. It shakes the view on the source of oxygen. C. It shows the process of photosynthesis. D. It displays the origin of life itself. 9. What enables seawater electrolysis in the deep sea? A. Photosynthesis. B. Sunlight reaching the seafloor. C. Polymetallic nodules. D. Chemical reactions in seawater. 10. Why are the nodules in spotlights? A. To describe the mechanism in splitting seawater. B. To demonstrate how powerful AA batteries are. C. To stress the practicality of electricity generation. D. To explain why more oxygen exists near the nodules. 11. What can we infer from Geiger’s words? A. Marine ecology must be respected while mining nodules. B. The Clarion-Clipperton Zone has no life due to mining. C. Marine biologists oppose mining in the ocean. D. Mining nodules is beneficial for marine life. D We tend to think of large cities as melting pots — places where people from all sorts of backgrounds can associate and interact. But according to a new research people in big cities tend to primarily interact with other individuals in the same socioeconomic level, while people in small cities and rural areas are much more likely to have diverse interactions. A team of researchers led by Stanford University used GPS data collected from 9.6 million cellphones in the United States to determine how often people of different socioeconomic statuses crossed paths during the day. After inferring each person’s socioeconomic status from estimated rental prices on a housing marketing website, the researchers counted potential interactions between users over the course of the day — times where two cellphones had GPS pings (定位仪) within 50 meters of each other within a five-minute window. They collected data on almost l.6 billion path-crossings, The researchers found a clear pattern that has been missed by similar studies in the past: large cities contributed to socioeconomic segregation. “That seems like an unexpected observation,” said Jure Leskovec, a professor of the team, “But there is a large variety of choices in big cities. In New York, you can spend S10 or $1,000 on a dinner, while if you live in a place with only one restaurant, everyone goes there, rich or poor. That seems to be the main mechanism for this phenomenon.” The good news is there are ways to build cities to have more socioeconomic mixing. Looking at large cities, the researchers found that those that placed frequently-visited activity centres in between different neighborhood — instead of in the centre of each neighborhood — were less segregated. “We’ve long emphasised residential integration, but we now have a new way,” said Grusky, a member of the research team. “When new shopping centres and other activity centres are up for approval, we need to make sure they’re located in places that will promote diversity.” 12. What helps the researchers reach their conclusion? A. Studying people’s interaction duration. B. Assessing residents’ living distances, C. Surveying phone users in person. D. Analysing GPS data from cellphones. 13. What does the underlined word “segregation” mean in paragraph 3? A. Integration. B. Development. C. Division. D. Imbalance. 14. Why is “restaurant” mentioned in paragraph 4? A. To predict effects. B. To illustrate the finding. C. To present a solution. D. To make comparisons. 15. What does Grusky propose to promote socioeconomic mixing in cities? A. Limit choices in large cities. B. Increase the number of restaurants. C. Enhance the taste of community activities. D. Place activity centres in diversity-rich areas. 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。 I was eleven years old when I spotted my neighbour, Julie, working in her garden.

However, while he loved animals, he never truly understood how to treat them with the respect they deserved. His parents had noticed Albert’s lack of responsibility. They had long tried to teach him the value of patience and care, but city life seemed to fuel his impatience. They knew something had to change. This winter break, Albert’s parents took him to visit his cousin Camille, who lived on a farm far from the city. Camille had learned from a young age how to care for animals. Albert’s parents hoped the trip would help him develop a deeper sense of responsibility and kindness – not just toward animals, but toward the world around him. When they arrived at Camille’s farm, Camille greeted them warmly, her face shining with the satisfaction of farm life. “Ready to meet the animals in the barn (畜棚)?” she asked Albert. Albert nodded eagerly. Albert saw the sheep first. He bent down to get a closer look, his hand reaching out toward them. However, as soon as he moved, the sheep scattered (散开), their eyes wide with unease. Albert was confused. “Why did they run away?” Camille smiled but explained gently, “They’re not used to sudden movements. Animals can get scared just like people. It’s important to be calm and patient with them.” Next, they visited the cows. Albert thought they would be easy to approach, but when he tried to wave a carrot in front of one, it barely reacted. He impatiently moved closer, trying to get its attention, but the cow simply ignored him. “It’s not a game, Albert,” Camille said, noticing his frustration (沮丧). “They’re not toys. You have to earn their trust. It’s just like being with people. If we rush or ignore their boundaries, they pull away, right?” Albert hesitated. He had never considered that animals, like people, had their own boundaries and comfort zones. 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 Later in the afternoon, Camille led Albert to feed the young sheep. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ That evening, Albert’s parents entered the barn, surprised by what they saw. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1-5 ACBCB 6-10 ABCBC 11-15 CAABA 16-20 CBABA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 泉州市2025届高中毕业班质量监测（三） 高三英语 （试卷满分：150分，考试时间：120分钟） 注意事项： 1. 答题前，考生须在试题卷、答题卡规定的位置填写自己的准考证号、姓名。考生应认真核对答题卡上粘贴的条形码的“准考证号、姓名”与考生本人准考证号、姓名是否一致。 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，考生须将试题卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。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，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。 例：How much is the shirt?

It was the first instance that informed us that he had Alzheimer’s disease (阿尔茨海默病). Over the past 12 years, his worsening condition and his wandering have been worrying us. My aunt struggled to stay awake at night to watch over him, but often failed. Concerned about my aunt’s well-being and my grandfather’s safety, I searched widely for a solution, but in vain. Then two years ago, while looking after my grandfather, I was impressed by the moment when his foot landed on the floor. Why don’t I put a pressure sensor on the bottom of his foot? Once he stepped onto the floor and out of the bed, the pressure sensor would detect an increase in pressure caused by body weight and then wirelessly send an alarm to the caregiver’s smartphone. My desire to create a sensor-based technology was born. When laying out my plan, I faced three main challenges. First, I had to create a wearable sensor. After testing different materials like rubber, which was too thick, I decided to print a film sensor with pressure-sensitive ink particles (颗粒). Next, I had to design a wearable wireless circuit. Thankfully, I was able to find out about the Bluetooth low energy technology, which produces little power and can be driven by a coin-sized battery. Lastly, I learnt to code (编码) a smartphone app to turn the caregiver’s smartphone into a remote monitor. Integrating these components, I successfully created two models: a built-in sock sensor and a re-attachable one. Having tested it on my grandfather with 100% success in detecting his wandering, I beta-tested it at California care facilities last summer. Now, I’m using response from tests to improve it into a marketable product. One thing I’ll never forget is when my device first caught my grandfather’s wandering at night. At that moment, I was really struck by the power of technology to change lives for the better. 4. What drove the author to seek a solution? A. His knowledge about Alzheimer’s. B. The encouragement from his aunt. C. His worries about treating patients. D. The struggle of tending his grandfather. 5. What is the purpose of detecting the pressure under a patient’s feet? A. To measure his weight. B. To monitor his motion. C. To record his walking pace. D. To estimate his health status. 6. Why did the author choose a printed film sensor? A. It’s thin. B. It’s energy-saving. C. It’s coin-sized. D. It’s wireless. 7. What is the best title of the text? A. Protecting Wandering Loved Ones B. How Technology Empowers Lives C. The Challenges of Alzheimer’s Disease Care D. A Family’s Struggle with Alzheimer’s Disease 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. A 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者的祖父患有阿尔茨海默病，家人照顾困难，作者为解决问题发明压力传感器设备监测祖父行动，以保障其安全。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Over the past 12 years, his worsening condition and his wandering have been worrying us. My aunt struggled to stay awake at night to watch over him, but often failed. Concerned about my aunt’s well being and my grandfather’s safety, I searched widely for a solution, but in vain.(在过去的12年里，他不断恶化的病情和四处游荡的行为一直让我们担忧。我姑姑晚上努力保持清醒照看他，但经常做不到。出于对姑姑健康和祖父安全的担忧，我四处寻找解决办法，但都徒劳无功)”和第二段中“Then two years ago, while looking after my grandfather, I was impressed by the moment when his foot landed on the floor. Why don’t I put a pressure sensor on the bottom of his foot?(两年前，在我照顾祖父的时候，他的脚着地的那一刻给我留下了深刻的印象。不如我在他脚底装个压力传感器吧？)”可知，照顾祖父的艰难促使作者寻求解决办法。故选D项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Once he stepped onto the floor and out of the bed, the pressure sensor would detect an increase in pressure caused by body weight and then wirelessly send an alarm to the caregiver’s smartphone.(一旦他下床踩到地板上，压力传感器就会检测到体重造成的压力增加，然后将警报无线发送到护理人员的智能手机上)”可知，检测病人脚下压力的目的是监测他的行动。故选B项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“After testing different materials like rubber, which was too thick, I decided to print a film sensor with pressure sensitive ink particles (颗粒).(在测试了像橡胶这样不同的材料后，发现橡胶太厚了，我决定用压敏油墨颗粒打印一个薄膜传感器)”可知，橡胶太厚了，所以作者选择打印薄膜传感器，因为它很薄。故选A项。 7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，根据第一段中“Over the past 12 years, his worsening condition and his wandering have been worrying us.(在过去的12年里，他不断恶化的病情和四处游荡的行为一直让我们担忧)”以及第四段中“Having tested it on my grandfather with 100% success in detecting his wandering(在我祖父身上测试时，它100%成功地检测到了他的游荡行为)”可知，文章主要围绕作者为防止患有阿尔茨海默病的祖父走失，发明压力传感器设备来保障其安全的故事。故A项“Protecting Wandering Loved Ones(保护四处游荡的亲人)”能概括文章主旨，最适合做标题。故选A项。 C Researchers exploring the lightless landscape of the Pacific Ocean floor think they’ve observed how oxygen is produced on Earth. Until now, it was thought that oxygen was created only through photosynthesis, a process that requires sunlight. But the discovery casts doubt on that idea and raises new questions about the origins of life itself. The research team in Scotland, believe oxygen is being produced by electrically charged material called polymetallic nodules (多金属结核), which range in size from a small particle to about the dimensions of a potato. These nodules — “effectively batteries in a rock,” Sweetman said — may use their electric charge to split seawater into hydrogen and oxygen in a process called seawater electrolysis (电解). Researchers conducted tests on the seafloor and also collected samples to test aboveground, and they came up with the same result: that oxygen levels increased near the polymetallic nodules. Seawater can be split into hydrogen and oxygen with 1.5 volts (伏特) of electricity, which is the amount in an AA battery. Researchers found that some of the nodules possessed as much as 0.95 volts of electricity, and multiple nodules together produced enough voltages. Polymetallic nodules contain metals such as manganese, nickel and cobalt, which can be used to make the lithium-ion batteries used in consumer electronics, appliances and electric vehicles. Franz Geiger, a Northwestern University chemistry professor, said that there may be enough polymetallic nodules in an area of the Pacific Ocean called the Clarion-Clipperton Zone to meet global energy demands for decades after. But mining would have to be conducted in a way that did not remove oxygen for life forms in that zone. “A few years ago, a team of marine (海洋) biologists went back to those areas mined 40 years ago and found essentially no life,” Geiger said. “And then a few hundred meters over to the left and right, where the nodules were untouched, plenty of life.” 8. Why is the discovery significant? A. It casts doubt on the existence of “dark oxygen.” B. It shakes the view on the source of oxygen. C. It shows the process of photosynthesis. D. It displays the origin of life itself. 9. What enables seawater electrolysis in the deep sea? A. Photosynthesis. B. Sunlight reaching the seafloor. C. Polymetallic nodules. D. Chemical reactions in seawater. 10. Why are the nodules in spotlights? A To describe the mechanism in splitting seawater. B. To demonstrate how powerful AA batteries are. C. To stress the practicality of electricity generation. D. To explain why more oxygen exists near the nodules. 11. What can we infer from Geiger’s words? A. Marine ecology must be respected while mining nodules. B. The Clarion-Clipperton Zone has no life due to mining. C. Marine biologists oppose mining in the ocean. D. Mining nodules is beneficial for marine life. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了多金属结核在深海产生氧气的新发现。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第二段“Until now, it was thought that oxygen was created only through photosynthesis, a process that requires sunlight. But the discovery casts doubt on that idea and raises new questions about the origins of life itself. (直到现在，人们一直认为氧气仅通过光合作用产生，而光合作用是一个需要阳光的过程。但这一发现让这种观点受到质疑，同时也引发了有关生命起源本身的新问题。)”可知，这一发现的重要意义是对氧气的来源这一观点产生了怀疑，动摇了关于氧气来源的观点。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第三段“The research team in Scotland, believe oxygen is being produced by electrically charged material called polymetallic nodules (多金属结核), which range in size from a small particle to about the dimensions of a potato. (苏格兰的研究团队认为，氧气是由一种名为多金属结核的带电物质产生的，这些多金属结核的大小不一，小的如同微小的颗粒，大的则和土豆的尺寸差不多。)”和第四段“These nodules — “effectively batteries in a rock,” Sweetman said — may use their electric charge to split seawater into hydrogen and oxygen in a process called seawater electrolysis (电解). (Sweetman说，这些结核“实际上就是岩石中的电池”，它们可能利用自身的电荷，通过一种叫做海水电解的过程，将海水分解成氢气和氧气。)”可知，深海中的海水电解是由多金属结核实现的。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第五段“Researchers conducted tests on the seafloor and also collected samples to test aboveground, and they came up with the same result: that oxygen levels increased near the polymetallic nodules. (研究人员在海底进行了测试，并收集了样品在地面上进行测试，他们得出了相同的结果：多金属结核附近的氧气水平增加了。)”可知，对结核的关注是为了解释为什么结核附近的氧气更多。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。由文章最后一段中““A few years ago, a team of marine (海洋) biologists went back to those areas mined 40 years ago and found essentially no life,” Geiger said. “And then a few hundred meters over to the left and right, where the nodules were untouched, plenty of life.” (Geiger说：“几年前，一组海洋生物学家回到了40年前曾被开采过的区域，发现那里基本上没有生命存在。而在距离该区域左右几百米的地方，多金属结核未被开采过，那里却有着丰富的生命。”)”可知，在被开采过的地区几乎没有生命，而在结核未被开采过的地区有很多生命，由此可推断出在开采结核时必须尊重海洋生态。故选A。 D We tend to think of large cities as melting pots — places where people from all sorts of backgrounds can associate and interact. But according to a new research, people in big cities tend to primarily interact with other individuals in the same socioeconomic level, while people in small cities and rural areas are much more likely to have diverse interactions. A team of researchers led by Stanford University used GPS data collected from 9.6 million cellphones in the United States to determine how often people of different socioeconomic statuses crossed paths during the day. After inferring each person’s socioeconomic status from estimated rental prices on a housing marketing website, the researchers counted potential interactions between users over the course of the day — times where two cellphones had GPS pings (定位仪) within 50 meters of each other within a five-minute window. They collected data on almost l.6 billion path-crossings, The researchers found a clear pattern that has been missed by similar studies in the past: large cities contributed to socioeconomic segregation. “That seems like an unexpected observation,” said Jure Leskovec, a professor of the team, “But there is a large variety of choices in big cities. In New York, you can spend S10 or $1,000 on a dinner, while if you live in a place with only one restaurant, everyone goes there, rich or poor. That seems to be the main mechanism for this phenomenon.” The good news is, there are ways to build cities to have more socioeconomic mixing. Looking at large cities, the researchers found that those that placed frequently-visited activity centres in between different neighborhood — instead of in the centre of each neighborhood — were less segregated. “We’ve long emphasised residential integration, but we now have a new way,” said Grusky, a member of the research team. “When new shopping centres and other activity centres are up for approval, we need to make sure they’re located in places that will promote diversity.” 12. What helps the researchers reach their conclusion? A. Studying people’s interaction duration. B. Assessing residents’ living distances, C. Surveying phone users in person. D. Analysing GPS data from cellphones. 13. What does the underlined word “segregation” mean in paragraph 3? A. Integration. B. Development. C. Division. D. Imbalance. 14. Why is “restaurant” mentioned in paragraph 4? A. To predict effects. B. To illustrate the finding. C. To present a solution. D. To make comparisons. 15. What does Grusky propose to promote socioeconomic mixing in cities? A. Limit choices in large cities. B. Increase the number of restaurants. C. Enhance the taste of community activities. D. Place activity centres in diversity-rich areas. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了研究发现大城市容易导致社会经济隔离，并探讨了背后的机制及改善方法。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“A team of researchers led by Stanford University used GPS data collected from 9.6 million cellphones in the United States to determine how often people of different socioeconomic statuses crossed paths during the day.(斯坦福大学领导一个研究小组使用从美国960万部手机收集的GPS数据来确定不同社会经济地位的人在一天中相遇的频率)”可知，研究人员通过分析手机中的GPS数据来得出结论。故选D项。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段“But according to a new research, people in big cities tend to primarily interact with other individuals in the same socioeconomic level, while people in small cities and rural areas are much more likely to have diverse interactions.(但根据一项新的研究，大城市的人往往主要与同一社会经济水平的其他人互动，而小城市和农村地区的人更有可能进行多样化的互动)”以及第三段“The researchers found a clear pattern that has been missed by similar studies in the past: large cities contributed to socioeconomic segregation.(研究人员发现了一个过去类似研究中遗漏的明确模式：大城市导致了社会经济segregation)”可知，大城市的人倾向于与同一社会经济水平的人交往，即大城市更容易导致社会经济隔离，划线单词segregation意为“隔离，分隔”，与Division意义相近。故选C项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“But there is a large variety of choices in big cities. In New York, you can spend 10 or 1,000 on a dinner, while if you live in a place with only one restaurant, everyone goes there, rich or poor. That seems to be the main mechanism for this phenomenon.(但大城市有各种各样的选择。在纽约，你可以花10或1000美元吃一顿晚餐，而如果你住在一个只有一家餐厅的地方，每个人都会去那里，无论贫富。这似乎是这种现象的主要机制)”可知，提到餐厅是为了举例说明大城市选择多这一导致社会经济隔离的机制，即为了说明研究发现。故选B项。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“When new shopping centres and other activity centres are up for approval, we need to make sure they’re located in places that will promote diversity.(当新的购物中心和其他活动中心等待批准时，我们需要确保它们位于促进多样性的地方)”可知，Grusky提议将活动中心设在多元化丰富的地区，以促进城市中的社会经济融合。故选D项。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 I was eleven years old when I spotted my neighbour, Julie, working in her garden.

However, while he loved animals, he never truly understood how to treat them with the respect they deserved. His parents had noticed Albert’s lack of responsibility. They had long tried to teach him the value of patience and care but city life seemed to fuel his impatience. They knew something had to change. This winter break, Albert’s parents took him to visit his cousin Camille, who lived on a farm far from the city. Camille had learned from a young age how to care for animals. Albert’s parents hoped the trip would help him develop a deeper sense of responsibility and kindness – not just toward animals, but toward the world around him. When they arrived at Camille’s farm, Camille greeted them warmly, her face shining with the satisfaction of farm life. “Ready to meet the animals in the barn (畜棚)?” she asked Albert. Albert nodded eagerly. Albert saw the sheep first. He bent down to get a closer look, his hand reaching out toward them. However, as soon as he moved, the sheep scattered (散开), their eyes wide with unease. Albert was confused. “Why did they run away?” Camille smiled but explained gently, “They’re not used to sudden movements. Animals can get scared just like people. It’s important to be calm and patient with them.” Next, they visited the cows. Albert thought they would be easy to approach, but when he tried to wave a carrot in front of one, it barely reacted. He impatiently moved closer, trying to get its attention, but the cow simply ignored him. “It’s not a game, Albert,” Camille said, noticing his frustration (沮丧). “They’re not toys. You have to earn their trust. It’s just like being with people. If we rush or ignore their boundaries, they pull away, right?” Albert hesitated. He had never considered that animals, like people, had their own boundaries and comfort zones. 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 Later in the afternoon, Camille led Albert to feed the young sheep. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ That evening, Albert’s parents entered the barn, surprised by what they saw. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Later in the afternoon, Camille led Albert to feed the young sheep. She handed him a handful of grass and demonstrated how to approach the animals quietly and slowly. Albert followed her instructions, moving carefully and extending his hand. One sheep carefully stepped forward and smelled the food in his hand. A sense of achievement filled Albert’s heart as he remained calm and continued offering the grass. Camille smiled, watching him. “It’s about kindness,” she said gently. “When you respect their space, they’ll trust you.” That evening, Albert’s parents entered the barn, surprised by what they saw. Albert sat on the grass-covered floor, surrounded by the lambs, who were now comfortable with him. He was talking to them softly and petting them. His parents stood in the doorway, watching him with interest. Albert looked up and noticed their surprised expressions. “Animals aren’t just here for us to play with,” he said. “They have feelings too. I think I understand now.” His mother smiled, realizing that Albert had grasped the importance of kindness and respect for all living beings. 【解析】 【导语】文章以人物为线索。主要讲述了Albert在城市长大，对动物缺乏耐心和责任感，父母带他去农场体验生活，最终他学会了如何尊重和善待动物的故事。 【详解】： 1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句“下午晚些时候，卡米尔领着艾伯特去喂小羊。”可知，本段可以描述Albert将尝试喂养羊，学习如何与动物互动。 ②由第二段首句“那天晚上，艾伯特的父母走进谷仓，对他们所看到的感到惊讶。”可知，本段可以描写父母将看到Albert的变化，感受到他的成长。 2.续写线索： 学习喂羊——学会耐心和尊重——与动物和谐相处——成长和变化。 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①递给：hand/pass to ②走进：approach/walk up to ③提供：offer/provide 情绪类 ①吃惊的：surprised/astonished ②舒适的：comfortable/easeful 【点睛】【高分句型1】 Albert followed her instructions, moving carefully and extending his hand.
