B Nobel Prize-winning theoretical physicist Frank Wilczek has been honored with this year’s Templeton Prize. The award recognizes individuals whose life’s work brings together science and spirituality. Wilczek is known for his research into the laws of nature. In a statement, the John Templeton Foundation said his work changes “our understanding of the forces that govern our universe.” It said he used physics to address “the great questions of meaning and purpose pondered by generations of religious thinkers.” John Templeton created the prize in 1972. It is one of the most highly valued prizes at more than $1.3 million. Past winners include Jane Goodall, Mother Teresa and Archbishop Desmond Tutu. Wilczek told The Associated Press, “It’s a company I’m very glad to join in.” He added, “It’s encouragement in a direction that I’ve really only taken up in a big way quite recently… which is thinking about not just what the world is and how it came to be this way but what we should do about it.” Over a long career, Wilczek had many successes. He won the 2004 Nobel Prize along with David J. Gross, and H. David Politzer for their 1973 research explaining the unusual properties of the strong force. Wilczek is currently a physics professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Arizona State University and Stockholm University. He is also the founding director of Shanghai Jiao Tong University’s T. D. Lee Institute. He has also written several books that are informed by science but look into spiritual and philosophical questions. Heather Dill is the Templeton Foundation president. In a statement, she said, “Like Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein, he is a natural philosopher who unites a curiosity about the behavior of nature with a playful and profound philosophical mind.” 24.

C With the Forbidden City and Jingshan Park to its east, Zhongnanhai to its south, Beihai Park, also known as Northern Sea Park, is one of the oldest, largest and best-preserved ancient imperial gardens(皇家花园) in China located in the center of Beijing. Beihai Park is said to be built according to a traditional Chinese legend. The story is that once upon a time there were three magic mountains called “Penglai”, “Yingzhou” and “Fangzhang”. Gods in those mountains had a kind of medicine which would help humans gain immortality (永生). Consequently, many emperors constantly sought those mountains. I For example, Emperor Qin Shihuang had sent people to look for the magic mountains but they failed. Emperor Wudi, the fifth emperor of the Western Han Dynasty did similar things. It was believed that different mountain-water combinations in ancient Chinese architecture led to totally different effects. So from then on, almost every emperor during the succeeding dynasties would build a royal garden with one-pool-with-three-hill layout near his palace. Beihai Park was surely built after this traditional style: the water of Beihai with Zhongnanhai is the Taiye Pool; the Jade Flowery Islet, the island of the Circular City and the Xishantai Island represent the three magic mountains. Actually, Beihai Park was initially built in the Liao Dynasty (916-1125) and was repaired and rebuilt in the following dynasties including Jin, Yuan, Ming and Qing. The large-scale rebuilding in the reign of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) generally established the present scale and pattern. In 1925, it was first opened to the public, attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors from all over the world every year. It is enjoyable to walk around the various scenic areas in Beihai Park. There are many places to visit, including the Bai Ta, Five-Dragon Pavilions, Nine-Dragon Wall, Yong’an Temple and so on. There is also a classy restaurant called Fangshan Restaurant where the Empress Cixi once dined. 28. Where is Beihai Park? A. Near the ocean. B. In the south of Zhongnanhai. C. To the west side of Jingshan Park. D. In the uptown area of Beijing City. 29. What is the similarity between Emperor Qin Shihuang and Emperor Wudi of Han according to the text? A. They loved to listen to stories. B. They both pursued immortality. C. They were mountain-climbing lovers. D. They were the first emperor of their dynasties. 30. How old is Beihai Park? A. Less than 100 years old. B. About 500 years old. C. About 1, 000 years old. D. Nearly 2, 000 years old. 31. What is the text mainly about? A. A famous park. B. Historical palaces. C. An unforgettable legend. D. Ancient architectural styles. D For some people, nothing beats a long walk on a sandy beach. But there’s no denying that it’s not as easy or as fast to get around on the beach as it is on a road or a sidewalk. But why is it so hard to walk on sand? The problem with sand is that it’s soft; you “sink in” at each step. This forces you to use 2.1 to 2. 7 times more energy with every step you take. Another idea is that people walk more difficultly on soft than they do on hard surfaces, a study found. The researchers compared how people walked on foam (沫) and hard surfaces by analyzing the forces under their feet and how much oxygen each person consumed. They found that walking on soft surfaces, such as sand, mud and snow, caused people to take longer steps — actions that use more energy than walking on a hard surface. But as experienced beach walkers know, there’s a way to make it easier to walk on sand: Just add water, When sand is wet, it becomes more compact (紧密), and walking on it is more similar to walking on hard surface. In other words, it’s much easier to cross a beach by walking along the shoreline, where the waves roll in and out. This is a balance though; too much water could make the sand soft once again. If water isn’t an option, there is another way to make walking on sand easier — increasing your surface area. This could be accomplished by wearing shoes. Although it’s more difficult, there are some good reasons to exercise on sand. The impact forces are lower on sand than on hard surface. Research suggests that walking across sand is much easier on your joints (关节) and muscles, especially compared with an unforgiving surface such as concrete (混凝土). This means sand is a better surface for helping athletes recover more quickly from workouts. 32. Why is the question raised in the first paragraph? A. To show problems. B. To call up readers’ memories. C. To invite readers to answer it. D. To draw readers’ attention to the topic. 33. How can you walk on sand more easily? A. By putting on shoes. B. By taking longer steps. C. By walking in the water. D. By using special breath methods. 34. Which of the following surfaces is unsuitable for athletes’ training? A. Sand. B. Concrete. C. Foam. D. Snow. 35. What may be the best title for the text? A. Tips for Beach Vacation B. All Kinds of Sports on the Sand C. Why Is It So Hard to Walk on Sand? D. Where Are We With the Sand Research? 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。 Have you ever watched a silent television show and tried to predict how the characters were feeling according to their body language? The ability to understand people’s body language is a skill that’s almost born inside of us. ____36____. This skill develops as we grow older, which is called non-verbal communication. Body language helps us communicate what we’re feeling without saying much at all. Think about a time when you were very angry. Did you clench (咬紧) your teeth? Did your palms get sweaty when you were anxious? In most cultures, these cues (线索) that reveal emotional states are quite common. But gestures have specific meanings across different cultures. Take touch for example. ____37____. In India, however, the ideal way to greet someone is by touching their feet, not by shaking their hand. In some places, gestures meaning hellos and goodbyes and touches indicating friendship and love are all the same. But the problem arises because some gestures have vastly different meanings in different cultures. For example, the “OK” symbol is used as a superb symbol in India, but in Turkey, this symbol is considered offensive (冒犯性的). ____38____. So, what should we do? Should we not use gestures at all? Of course not. ____39____. No matter how much we try to stop ourselves, we will end up communicating non-verbally in some way or another. ____40____, you’d better make a quick Google search or turn to a comprehensive book to better interact with the locals, and avoid offending them during your stay! A. It was a very kind and thoughtful gesture. B. So, the next time you decide to travel to another country C. When you flash the “OK” sign there, you’re asking for a fight. D They also use a system of sounds and body language to communicate. E. Even the smallest children can figure out when their mothers are mad. F. Gestures are something that comes with the language of communication. G. A general way of saying “Hello” in western culture is a brief handshake. 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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Granny Basketball is more competitive than you’d think!

Cali had been playing soccer all summer. She really enjoyed running around with the other players. As much as she tried, though, Cali still had not scored one single goal. “Don’t give up, “said her coach. He showed Cali and her team how to pass the ball to each other and take shots at the goal. Cali was pretty good at passing the ball, but even during practices, she couldn’t kick the ball past the goalkeeper. She wondered if she should quit soccer for good. “Don’t give up, “said Uncle George and Aunt Lisa. But it was half-time, and Cali was feeling upset. She was trying! Every time she got a chance to kick the ball, it would go in the wrong direction or a player from the other team would take control of it. Maybe she would try a different sport next summer. The break was over and the referee (裁判) blew her whistle to start the game again. The two teams walked back onto the field, both determined to win. Cali heard her aunt whisper in her ear. “Look for an opportunity to get the ball. You can do it. “Cali took a deep breath. Even if she didn’t get one goal all summer, she knew that she had tried her best. That was something to be proud of. The yellow team was pretty good, but Cali’s blue team was fast. Cali was off to the side when the ball headed her way. She ran over to it and kicked it. She watched it land right in front of a girl on the yellow team who expertly stopped it and sent it back in the other direction. Cali sighed (叹气) . Cali decided she’d wait until the game was over and then she was going to hang up her soccer shoes for good. Cali started daydreaming about becoming a hip-hop dancer instead. She was woken from her daydream by some music that was definitely not hip-hop. It was the sweet, happy jingle of the ice cream truck. 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。 It was right beside the soccer field, playing its music loudly to attract customers and players as well. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ She ran fast to the ball. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 通榆县毓才高级中学高二年级第一次月考试题 英语 考生注意： 1.本试卷分选择题和非选择题两部分。满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2.答题前，考生务必用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔将密封线内项目填写清楚。 3.考生作答时，请将答案答在答题卡上。选择题每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑；非选择题请用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔在答题卡上各题的答题区域内作答，超出答题区域书写的答案无效，在试题卷、草稿纸上作答无效。 4.本卷命题范围：人教版择性必修第一册Units 3~4. 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。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】 Where does the conversation most probably take place?

I have two elder sisters and a younger brother. They all work in New York and are married. I am the only one that is still single in my family. I studied in a college before I came here.

I think as long as we don’t give up, life will become better. 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 Four best thrift (旧货) stores in New York Housing Works ●Address: NYC Multiple Locations ●Opening Hours: 11 a. m.-7 pm Monday-Saturday; 12 p. m.-5 p. m.

The award recognizes individuals whose life’s work brings together science and spirituality. Wilczek is known for his research into the laws of nature. In a statement, the John Templeton Foundation said his work changes “our understanding of the forces that govern our universe.” It said he used physics to address “the great questions of meaning and purpose pondered by generations of religious thinkers.” John Templeton created the prize in 1972. It is one of the most highly valued prizes at more than $1.3 million. Past winners include Jane Goodall, Mother Teresa and Archbishop Desmond Tutu. Wilczek told The Associated Press, “It’s a company I’m very glad to join in.” He added, “It’s encouragement in a direction that I’ve really only taken up in a big way quite recently… which is thinking about not just what the world is and how it came to be this way but what we should do about it.” Over a long career, Wilczek had many successes. He won the 2004 Nobel Prize along with David J. Gross, and H. David Politzer for their 1973 research explaining the unusual properties of the strong force. Wilczek is currently a physics professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Arizona State University and Stockholm University. He is also the founding director of Shanghai Jiao Tong University’s T. D. Lee Institute. He has also written several books that are informed by science but look into spiritual and philosophical questions. Heather Dill is the Templeton Foundation president. In a statement, she said, “Like Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein, he is a natural philosopher who unites a curiosity about the behavior of nature with a playful and profound philosophical mind.” 24.

Beihai Park is said to be built according to a traditional Chinese legend. The story is that once upon a time there were three magic mountains called “Penglai”, “Yingzhou” and “Fangzhang”. Gods in those mountains had a kind of medicine which would help humans gain immortality (永生). Consequently, many emperors constantly sought those mountains. I For example, Emperor Qin Shihuang had sent people to look for the magic mountains but they failed. Emperor Wudi, the fifth emperor of the Western Han Dynasty did similar things. It was believed that different mountain-water combinations in ancient Chinese architecture led to totally different effects. So from then on, almost every emperor during the succeeding dynasties would build a royal garden with one-pool-with-three-hill layout near his palace. Beihai Park was surely built after this traditional style: the water of Beihai with Zhongnanhai is the Taiye Pool; the Jade Flowery Islet, the island of the Circular City and the Xishantai Island represent the three magic mountains. Actually, Beihai Park was initially built in the Liao Dynasty (916-1125) and was repaired and rebuilt in the following dynasties including Jin, Yuan, Ming and Qing. The large-scale rebuilding in the reign of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) generally established the present scale and pattern. In 1925, it was first opened to the public, attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors from all over the world every year. It is enjoyable to walk around the various scenic areas in Beihai Park. There are many places to visit, including the Bai Ta, Five-Dragon Pavilions, Nine-Dragon Wall, Yong’an Temple and so on. There is also a classy restaurant called Fangshan Restaurant where the Empress Cixi once dined. 28. Where is Beihai Park? A. Near the ocean. B. In the south of Zhongnanhai. C. To the west side of Jingshan Park. D. In the uptown area of Beijing City. 29. What is the similarity between Emperor Qin Shihuang and Emperor Wudi of Han according to the text? A. They loved to listen to stories. B. They both pursued immortality. C. They were mountain-climbing lovers. D. They were the first emperor of their dynasties. 30. How old is Beihai Park? A. Less than 100 years old. B. About 500 years old. C. About 1, 000 years old. D. Nearly 2, 000 years old. 31. What is the text mainly about? A. A famous park. B. Historical palaces. C. An unforgettable legend. D. Ancient architectural styles. 【答案】28 C 29. B 30. C 31.

But there’s no denying that it’s not as easy or as fast to get around on the beach as it is on a road or a sidewalk. But why is it so hard to walk on sand? The problem with sand is that it’s soft; you “sink in” at each step. This forces you to use 2.1 to 2. 7 times more energy with every step you take. Another idea is that people walk more difficultly on soft than they do on hard surfaces, a study found. The researchers compared how people walked on foam (沫) and hard surfaces by analyzing the forces under their feet and how much oxygen each person consumed. They found that walking on soft surfaces, such as sand, mud and snow, caused people to take longer steps — actions that use more energy than walking on a hard surface. But as experienced beach walkers know, there’s a way to make it easier to walk on sand: Just add water, When sand is wet, it becomes more compact (紧密), and walking on it is more similar to walking on hard surface. In other words, it’s much easier to cross a beach by walking along the shoreline, where the waves roll in and out. This is a balance though; too much water could make the sand soft once again. If water isn’t an option, there is another way to make walking on sand easier — increasing your surface area. This could be accomplished by wearing shoes. Although it’s more difficult, there are some good reasons to exercise on sand. The impact forces are lower on sand than on hard surface. Research suggests that walking across sand is much easier on your joints (关节) and muscles, especially compared with an unforgiving surface such as concrete (混凝土). This means sand is a better surface for helping athletes recover more quickly from workouts. 32 Why is the question raised in the first paragraph? A. To show problems. B. To call up readers’ memories. C. To invite readers to answer it. D. To draw readers’ attention to the topic. 33. How can you walk on sand more easily? A. By putting on shoes. B. By taking longer steps. C. By walking in the water. D. By using special breath methods. 34. Which of the following surfaces is unsuitable for athletes’ training? A. Sand. B. Concrete. C. Foam. D. Snow. 35. What may be the best title for the text? A. Tips for Beach Vacation B. All Kinds of Sports on the Sand C. Why Is It So Hard to Walk on Sand? D. Where Are We With the Sand Research? 【答案】32. D 33. A 34. B 35. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要解释了为什么在沙滩上行走比较艰难，并提出了解决的办法。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。第一段中“But why is it so hard to walk on sand? (但为什么在沙滩上行走如此困难呢？)”提出问题，下文主要围绕此问题展开，解释了在沙滩上行走比较困难的原因，故第一段提出该问题是为了将读者的注意吸引到文章的主题上，故选D。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段最后两句“If water isn’t an option, there is another way to make walking on sand easier — increasing your surface area. This could be accomplished by wearing shoes. (如果不能用水，还有另一种方法可以使在沙滩上行走更容易——增加你的表面积。这可以通过穿鞋来实现)”可知，可以通过穿鞋子来使在沙滩行走更容易，故选A。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后两句“Research suggests that walking across sand is much easier on your joints (关节) and muscles, especially compared with an unforgiving surface such as concrete (混凝土).

(研究表明，在沙子上行走对你的关节和肌肉来说要容易得多，尤其是与坚硬的混凝土表面相比。这意味着沙子是一个更好的表面，可以帮助运动员更快地从训练中恢复)”可知，混凝土不适合运动员的训练。故选B。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第一段中“But why is it so hard to walk on sand? (但为什么在沙滩上行走如此困难呢？)”可知，文章主要解释了为什么在沙滩上行走比较艰难，并提出了解决的办法。C项“为什么在沙子上行走如此艰难？”为最佳标题。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。 Have you ever watched a silent television show and tried to predict how the characters were feeling according to their body language? The ability to understand people’s body language is a skill that’s almost born inside of us. ____36____. This skill develops as we grow older, which is called non-verbal communication. Body language helps us communicate what we’re feeling without saying much at all. Think about a time when you were very angry. Did you clench (咬紧) your teeth? Did your palms get sweaty when you were anxious? In most cultures, these cues (线索) that reveal emotional states are quite common. But gestures have specific meanings across different cultures. Take touch for example. ____37____. In India, however, the ideal way to greet someone is by touching their feet, not by shaking their hand. In some places, gestures meaning hellos and goodbyes and touches indicating friendship and love are all the same. But the problem arises because some gestures have vastly different meanings in different cultures. For example, the “OK” symbol is used as a superb symbol in India, but in Turkey, this symbol is considered offensive (冒犯性的). ____38____. So, what should we do? Should we not use gestures at all? Of course not. ____39____. No matter how much we try to stop ourselves, we will end up communicating non-verbally in some way or another. ____40____, you’d better make a quick Google search or turn to a comprehensive book to better interact with the locals, and avoid offending them during your stay! A. It was a very kind and thoughtful gesture. B. So, the next time you decide to travel to another country C. When you flash the “OK” sign there, you’re asking for a fight. D. They also use a system of sounds and body language to communicate. E. Even the smallest children can figure out when their mothers are mad. F. Gestures are something that comes with the language of communication. G. A general way of saying “Hello” in western culture is a brief handshake. 【答案】36. E 37. G 38. C 39. F 40.

(理解他人肢体语言的能力几乎是我们天生的技能。)”可知，上文告诉我们理解他人肢体语言的能力几乎是我们天生的技能，E项意为“即使最小的孩子也能知道妈妈什么时候生气了。”选项能够承接上文，举例说明理解他人肢体语言的能力几乎是我们天生的技能，即使最小的孩子也能通过肢体语言知道妈妈什么时候生气了。故选E。 【37题详解】 根据下文“In India, however, the ideal way to greet someone is by touching their feet, not by shaking their hand. (然而，在印度，问候某人的理想方式是触摸他们的脚，而不是握手。)”可知，下文告诉我们在印度，问候某人的理想方式是触摸他们的脚，G项意为“在西方文化中，说“你好”的一般方式是简短的握手。”选项能够引起下文，分别介绍了西方和印度问候某人的方式，西方是简短的握手，印度不是握手，而是触摸他们的脚。故选G。 【38题详解】 根据上文“For example, the “OK” symbol is used as a superb symbol in India, but in Turkey, this symbol is considered offensive (冒犯性的). (例如，“OK”符号在印度被用作极好的符号，但在土耳其，这个符号被认为是冒犯性的。)”可知，上文告诉我们在土耳其，“OK”符号被认为是冒犯性的，C项意为“当你在那里闪烁“OK”标志时，你是在找茬打架。”选项能够承接上文，在土耳其，“OK”符号被认为是冒犯性的，你在那里闪烁“OK”标志时，你是在找茬打架。故选C。 【39题详解】 根据上文“So, what should we do? Should we not use gestures at all? Of course not. (那么，我们该怎么办？我们不应该使用手势吗？当然不是。)”可知，上文提出问题，既然各地的手势语不同，我们不应该使用手势吗？F项意为“手势是伴随着交流语言而来的东西。”选项能够承接上文，我们应该使用手势语，因为手势是伴随着交流语言而来的东西。故选F。 【40题详解】 根据下文“you’d better make a quick Google search or turn to a comprehensive book to better interact with the locals, and avoid offending them during your stay! (你最好在谷歌上快速搜索，或者求助于一本综合性的书，以便更好地与当地人互动，避免在逗留期间冒犯他们！)”可知，下文告诉我们可以通过在谷歌上快速搜索，或者求助于一本综合性的书来了解当地人的肢体语言，B项意为“所以，下次你决定去另一个国家旅行时”，选项能够引起下文，下次你决定去另一个国家旅行时，先在谷歌上快速搜索，或者求助于一本综合性的书来了解当地人的肢体语言，以便更好地与当地人互动。故选B。 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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Granny Basketball is more competitive than you’d think!

Cali had been playing soccer all summer. She really enjoyed running around with the other players. As much as she tried, though, Cali still had not scored one single goal. “Don’t give up, “said her coach. He showed Cali and her team how to pass the ball to each other and take shots at the goal. Cali was pretty good at passing the ball, but even during practices, she couldn’t kick the ball past the goalkeeper. She wondered if she should quit soccer for good. “Don’t give up, “said Uncle George and Aunt Lisa. But it was half-time, and Cali was feeling upset. She was trying! Every time she got a chance to kick the ball, it would go in the wrong direction or a player from the other team would take control of it. Maybe she would try a different sport next summer. The break was over and the referee (裁判) blew her whistle to start the game again. The two teams walked back onto the field, both determined to win. Cali heard her aunt whisper in her ear. “Look for an opportunity to get the ball. You can do it. “Cali took a deep breath. Even if she didn’t get one goal all summer, she knew that she had tried her best. That was something to be proud of. The yellow team was pretty good, but Cali’s blue team was fast. Cali was off to the side when the ball headed her way. She ran over to it and kicked it. She watched it land right in front of a girl on the yellow team who expertly stopped it and sent it back in the other direction. Cali sighed (叹气) . Cali decided she’d wait until the game was over and then she was going to hang up her soccer shoes for good. Cali started daydreaming about becoming a hip-hop dancer instead. She was woken from her daydream by some music that was definitely not hip-hop. It was the sweet, happy jingle of the ice cream truck. 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。 It was right beside the soccer field, playing its music loudly to attract customers and players as well. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ She ran fast to the ball. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】It was right beside the soccer field, playing its music loudly to attract customers and players as well. The players on both teams turned to look at it. A few girls pointed to it and cheered. Some called out excitedly to their parents to buy them one. The soccer game had practically stopped. Cali looked around and saw the soccer ball close by, ignored by the nearest yellow player. Cali smiled happily. She looked at her aunt, who nodded at her. “Now!” her aunt yelled. Cali didn’t hesitate. She ran fast to the ball. By the time the other girls had noticed, Cali was positioned right in front of the net. The goalkeeper was standing to one side, also looking at the ice cream truck. She turned back quickly to guard the net as Cali kicked the ball hard. The goalkeeper reached out her gloved hand. The ball touched the tips of her fingers as it swooshed past, right into the top corner of the net. The referee blew her whistle. “Goal!” Cali jumped with joy, at the same time all his teammates surrounding her, jumping and shouting. 【解析】 【导语】本文以故事发展为线索展开，卡丽在参加赛季的最后一场足球赛，尽管她很努力，但却一球也未进，由此她想到了放弃足球运动。下半场比赛，卡丽仍然没有进球，这时，场边冰淇淋车上的音乐响起，几乎所有球员的注意力都被音乐吸引了，卡丽趁机踢进了一球。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“它就在足球场的旁边，大声播放音乐，吸引顾客和球员。”可知，第一段可描写球员被音乐和冰淇淋所吸引，几乎忘记比赛。 ②由第二段首句内容“她飞快地向球跑去。”可知，第二段可描写卡丽利用对方球员走神的时机踢进一球。 2.续写线索：赛季的最后一场比赛——努力比赛——无法进球——想到放弃足球——场边音乐响起——球员被音乐吸引——趁机进球 3.词汇激活 行为类 向……大喊：call out to/shout at 停止：stop/quit/pause 跑向：run to/rush to 情绪类 激动地：excitedly/with excitement 高兴地：happily/joyfully 【点睛】[高分句型1] It was right beside the soccer field, playing its music loudly to attract customers and players as well.  （playing是现在分词作状语） [高分句型2] She looked at her aunt, who nodded at her.（由关系代词who引导非限制性定语从句） [高分句型3] The ball touched the tips of her fingers as it swooshed past, right into the top corner of the net. （由连词as引导时间状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$听力考试现在开始，请看听力部分第一节。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abc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。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。Excuse me, is this seat taken?
