These are some of the world’s most beautiful deserts that you can see while traveling. Salar de Uyuni, Bolivia Salar de Uyuni is the world’s largest salt desert and a truly mystical place to visit. Tens of thousands of years ago, this region was part of a prehistoric lake. However, these lakes dried up and left behind two new smaller lakes and these expansive salt flats. An estimated 10 billion tons of salt can be found in this desert. Painted Desert, Arizona, USA The Painted Desert of Arizona got its name from the vibrant red, orange, blue, and purple colors painted across the landscape. Less than 10 inches of rain fall here each year, and the colors were created by minerals in the clay and sandstone rock. There are lots of great trails to hike through this desert, especially at sunset when the colors are on display. Pinnacles Desert, Australia You’ll need to head to the Nambung National Park in Western Australia to experience the Pinnacles Desert for yourself. This desert gets its name from the beautiful spires (尖顶) made of rock that rise from the sand dunes (沙丘). The rock formations here have been weathered so much over time to undeniably stand out among the gentle yellow sand dunes. Share this story Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Pinterest 1. What do the first two deserts have in common? A. Rich minerals. B. Diverse colors. C. Expansive flats. D. Countless trails. 2. Why does Pinnacles Desert get its name? A. For its sand dunes. B. For its special shape. C. For its long history. D. For its unusual weather. 3. Where is the passage probably taken from? A. A travel brochure. B. A geography textbook. C A fashion magazine. D. A trip discovery platform. B After spending his career as a chef and working as the Vice President of Food and Beverage at FireKeepers Hotel in Michigan, Michael McFarlen saw how much food would get thrown away from the hotel’s restaurant every day. After some thinking, McFarlen came up with a plan to run a restaurant in the community that would also help support a food pantry (食品橱) on the property. After presenting the idea to FireKeepers leadership, they were immediately on board with the plan. In April of 2016, the FireKeepers Hotel and its owners, the Nottawaseppi Huron Band of the Potawatomi, bought Fire Station No.4, a historic firehouse. They renovated (翻新) the building and turned the fire station into a restaurant. On April 19,2017, the restaurant, which they named The Fire Hub, opened to the public for the first time. At the same time, a food pantry, which they named the Kendall Street Food Pantry (KSEP) opened its door in the back of the building. "It really is amazing," Kathy George, the Chief Executive Officer of FireKeepers, told Second Wave Media about the special restaurant designed to support the food pantry. The first year of operation exceeded their expectations. Not only did the restaurant attract customers because of its popularity andsustainability, but the food pantry helped more people in the first year than they ever imagined. When you think of people using food pantry services, you think of homeless or unemployed people. In reality, however, many of the people who have needed the food pantry’s help are people that are employed but still struggle to afford to pay for groceries. On top of helping run the Kendall Street Food Pantry, profits from the Fire Hub are also given to nonprofits like the Safe Place and the Food Bank of South Central Michigan Inc. “We’re building a responsible business that takes profits and gives to nonprofits,” McFarlen said. “As we get more and more involved, we will give to many other charities and nonprofits.” 4. Why did McFarlen want to set up a food pantry? A. To recycle waste food. B. To bring profits to the hotel. C. To help feed the people in need. D. To renovate a historic firehouse. 5. What does the phrase "on board with" in paragraph 2 mean? A. Opposed to. B. Doubtful about. C. Indifferent to. D. In favor of. 6. Which of the following best describes the KSFP programme? A. Charitable. B. Costly. C. Conventional. D. Profitable. 7. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. The pantry merely serves the people out of job. B. The Fire Hub will contribute more continuously. C. The local citizens are lacking in job opportunities. D. The food in the pantry is affordable for the homeless. C Despite more than a month of efforts to rescue Tenora, a young green sea turtle, pollution-related issues made it difficult to save her. Tenora was finally put to death to reduce her suffering. Tenora was brought in by Rainbow Reef Dive Center staff and customers on October 3, 2020.The rescue team was led by PADI (Professional Association of Diving Instructors)Instructor Josh Phillips who had made it his “personal mission” to help Tenora after seeing her with a softball-sized tumor (肿瘤) out on the reefs (暗礁). He connected with the Turtle Hospital, a nonprofit in the Florida Keys for permission and guidance about how to rescue her. After over a month of searching and failed attempts, Phillips was finally able to rescue her on a rainy Saturday. Shelby Ferguson of the Turtle Hospital met the boat at the dock to bring Tenora in for evaluation and care. Ferguson explained that green see turtles are the species most easily affected by the virus that causes fibropapilloma (FP) tumors like the one Tenora had. Generally, she said, the more polluted the water, the more turtles present with FP tumors. In Hawaii, nitrogen ( 氯) runoff from pineapple farms increases the disease incidence in green sea turtles near the islands, explained Bette Zirkelbach, manager at the Turtle Hospital. Scientists there first made the link between poor water quality and increased FP tumors in green sea turtles. The Turtle Hospital is building on this knowledge by leading an in-water scientific study on sea turtle health in the Florida Keys for the next three years, she added. While external masses can be surgically removed, there is currently no treatment for internal FP tumors in sea turtles, so animals like Tenora are humanely put to death to reduce their suffering, Zirkelbach said. Phillips reflected on Tenora’s loss, saying, “I think it is terrible to consider that this is mostly caused by humans.” He urged everyone, “Wake up. Do better. We’re all in this together, and if we don’t try to change how we live our lives, things aren’t going to get any better. This is our chance lo do something today for the next generation.” 8. How did Phillip react while seeing Tenora for the first time? A. He almost ignored her condition. B. He brought her to the Turtle Hospital. C. He immediately knew she needed help. D. He decided to start a nonprofit for the species. 9. What does Ferguson’s explanation tell us about green sea turtles? A. They have already become endangered. B. They are easily threatened by polluted water. C. It is still unclear how they get FP tumors. D. It is rare to see they have internal FP tumors. 10. Why does the author mention Phillips’ words in the last paragraph? A. To draw attention to green sea turtles. B. To describe ways of protecting the earth. C. To call for action to help the environment. D. To educate the next generation in responsibility. 11. What would be the best title for the text? A. A Diver Helps Save a Green Sea Turtle B. Pollution Worldwide Is Putting Species in Danger C. Rescue Green Sea Turtle Is Put to Death Due to Tumor D. Researchers Are Looking for Ways to Rescue Green Sea Turtles D A newly-developed Android phone app is able to remotely estimate pressure in a person’s arteries (动脉) as there heart squeezes, providing potentially life-saving details on individual health without the need for specialized equipment. Rather than having to take a trip to the doctor or use a dedicated device, individuals might one day be able to make use of the phone in their pocket, making the innovation particularly important in underserved populations where access to medical care is limited. Developed by researchers from the University of Pittsburgh, the app works by taking a variety of readings from the accelerometer, camera, and touch sensors built into modern smartphones. What makes the app smart is the way it gets users to change the position of their hands to change blood flow, and apply a number of instructed touches to the phone screen to get the right pulse pressure readings.“Because of gravity, there’s a pressure change in your thumb when you raise your hands up above your heart, and using the phone’s accelerometer, you’re able to convert that into the relative change in pressure,” says biomedical engineer Vishaal Dhamotharan from the University of Pittsburgh. In tests on 24 people and cross-referencing with a larger database, the app method detected pulse pressure to a reasonably accurate level, within around 8 mm HG. As development continues, the app accuracy level will most likely improve on that even further. The researchers admit they’ll need to work on “changing the mindset” around using pulse pressure as a blood pressure indicator — but it’s the best solution we’ve seen yet for taking this crucial reading using a normal smartphone. “Development of a portable blood pressure measurement device that does not require any external calibration (外部校准) is unrealistic — such a device currently does not exist” says biomedical engineer Sanjeev Shroff, from the University of Pittsburgh. “The research work reported in this publication is an important step in the right direction.” 12. Why is the newly-developed phone app particularly important? A. It’s much easier to access. B. It’s money-saving. C. It’s a specialized facility. D. It’s more accurate. 13. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about the app? A. The special function of it. B. The working principle of it. C. The purpose of developing it. D. The inspiration for developing it. 14. What can we infer about the future of the app in smartphones? A. It will have a bright prospect. B. It will come into the market soon. C. It will be built in every smartphone. D. It will replace the traditional equipment. 15. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To test an app. B. To improve an app. C. To advertise an app. D. To introduce an app. 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。 True beauty is not found in looks. ____16____ Changing the way you think about beauty will give you life-long confidence.

My friend Allan and I decided to play catch in my yard. We were having fun throwing the ball back and forth. “Run! Nice catch!” It had been days since we enjoyed ourselves. Then, I threw the ball too hard and Allan missed his catch. The ball flew like lightning, crossed the yard and hit my neighbor’s window. We heard the big sound. Crash! Smash! The window broke into many pieces. Allan turned pale and a look of panic crossed his face. He froze, too scared to move an inch. Without a second thought, I grabbed his hand, whispering, “Come with me!” We ran into my backyard and hid behind a stack of hay. It seemed to be a place of safety. However, my heart was still pounding hard, as if it were about to pop. Mr. Jones, the neighbour, who was a seventy-year-old man, lived alone. Though he was poor, he was well loved in the neighborhood for he always helped those in need. Obviously, he heard the big sound, too. He came out of his house, with a ball in his hands. It was exactly our ball! Did he recognize who the ball belonged to? With butterflies in my stomach, I breathed deeply. In the meantime, Mr. Jones looked around, trying to see who threw the ball. Of course, no one was outside. He gazed the window for a while, and then the ball. Finally, he went back into his house. A few days later, I saw that Mr. Jones had repaired the broken glass. He was sitting outside. When he saw me, he waved at me. I felt ashamed as I waved back at him. I knew what I should do, but I was afraid to do it. Later, my mom and I were talking and she told me about the broken window. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mr. Jones looked at me after I explained what had happened. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力答案：1-5 CBCAB 6-10 CBABA 11-15 ACBAB 16-20 ACACB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 抚顺一中 2024—2025 学年高二下学期期初测试英语试卷 考试时间: 120分钟 试题满分：150分 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题, 从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。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.

Tenora was finally put to death to reduce her suffering. Tenora was brought in by Rainbow Reef Dive Center staff and customers on October 3, 2020.The rescue team was led by PADI (Professional Association of Diving Instructors)Instructor Josh Phillips who had made it his “personal mission” to help Tenora after seeing her with a softball-sized tumor (肿瘤) out on the reefs (暗礁). He connected with the Turtle Hospital, a nonprofit in the Florida Keys for permission and guidance about how to rescue her. After over a month of searching and failed attempts, Phillips was finally able to rescue her on a rainy Saturday. Shelby Ferguson of the Turtle Hospital met the boat at the dock to bring Tenora in for evaluation and care. Ferguson explained that green see turtles are the species most easily affected by the virus that causes fibropapilloma (FP) tumors like the one Tenora had. Generally, she said, the more polluted the water, the more turtles present with FP tumors. In Hawaii, nitrogen ( 氯) runoff from pineapple farms increases the disease incidence in green sea turtles near the islands, explained Bette Zirkelbach, manager at the Turtle Hospital. Scientists there first made the link between poor water quality and increased FP tumors in green sea turtles. The Turtle Hospital is building on this knowledge by leading an in-water scientific study on sea turtle health in the Florida Keys for the next three years, she added. While external masses can be surgically removed, there is currently no treatment for internal FP tumors in sea turtles, so animals like Tenora are humanely put to death to reduce their suffering, Zirkelbach said. Phillips reflected on Tenora’s loss, saying, “I think it is terrible to consider that this is mostly caused by humans.” He urged everyone, “Wake up. Do better. We’re all in this together, and if we don’t try to change how we live our lives, things aren’t going to get any better. This is our chance lo do something today for the next generation.” 8. How did Phillip react while seeing Tenora for the first time? A. He almost ignored her condition. B. He brought her to the Turtle Hospital. C. He immediately knew she needed help. D. He decided to start a nonprofit for the species. 9. What does Ferguson’s explanation tell us about green sea turtles? A. They have already become endangered. B. They are easily threatened by polluted water. C. It is still unclear how they get FP tumors. D. It is rare to see they have internal FP tumors. 10. Why does the author mention Phillips’ words in the last paragraph? A. To draw attention to green sea turtles. B. To describe ways of protecting the earth. C. To call for action to help the environment. D. To educate the next generation in responsibility. 11. What would be the best title for the text? A. A Diver Helps Save a Green Sea Turtle B. Pollution Worldwide Is Putting Species in Danger C. Rescue Green Sea Turtle Is Put to Death Due to Tumor D. Researchers Are Looking for Ways to Rescue Green Sea Turtles 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述的是救援队教练菲利普斯拯救绿海龟的故事，同时他呼吁人们保护环境，减少污染. 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The rescue team was led by PADI (Professional Association of Diving Instructors)Instructor Josh Phillips who had made it his “personal mission” to help Tenora after seeing her with a softball-sized tumor (肿瘤) out on the reefs (暗礁). He connected with the Turtle Hospital, a nonprofit in the Florida Keys for permission and guidance about how to rescue her.( 救援队由PADI(专业潜水教练协会)教练乔希·菲利普斯领导，他在珊瑚礁上看到泰诺拉长了一个垒球大小的肿瘤后，就把帮助她作为自己的“个人任务”。他联系了海龟医院，这是佛罗里达群岛的一家非营利组织，请求允许并指导如何拯救她。)”可知，他在珊瑚礁上看到泰诺拉长了一个垒球大小的肿瘤后，就把帮助她作为自己的“个人任务”即他立刻意识到她需要帮助。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Ferguson explained that green see turtles are the species most easily affected by the virus that causes fibropapilloma (FP) tumors like the one Tenora had. Generally, she said, the more polluted the water, the more turtles present with FP tumors.(弗格森解释说，绿海龟是最容易受到导致纤维乳头瘤(FP)肿瘤的病毒影响的物种，就像泰诺拉所患的那样。她说，一般来说，水污染越严重，患FP肿瘤的海龟就越多。)”可知，绿海龟很容易受到水污染的威胁。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“He urged everyone, “Wake up. Do better. We’re all in this together, and if we don’t try to change how we live our lives, things aren’t going to get any better. This is our chance to do something today for the next generation.”(他催促大家：“醒醒吧。做得更好。我们都在一起，如果我们不尝试改变我们的生活方式，事情不会变得更好。这是我们今天为下一代做点什么的机会。”)”可知，菲利普斯在此处呼吁采取行动保护环境。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，文章讲述是救援队教练菲利普斯拯救绿海龟的故事。A选项“A Diver Helps Save a Green Sea Turtle(一名潜水员帮助拯救一只绿海龟)”能够概括文章主要内容。故选A。 D A newly-developed Android phone app is able to remotely estimate pressure in a person’s arteries (动脉) as there heart squeezes, providing potentially life-saving details on individual health without the need for specialized equipment. Rather than having to take a trip to the doctor or use a dedicated device, individuals might one day be able to make use of the phone in their pocket, making the innovation particularly important in underserved populations where access to medical care is limited. Developed by researchers from the University of Pittsburgh, the app works by taking a variety of readings from the accelerometer, camera, and touch sensors built into modern smartphones. What makes the app smart is the way it gets users to change the position of their hands to change blood flow, and apply a number of instructed touches to the phone screen to get the right pulse pressure readings.“Because of gravity, there’s a pressure change in your thumb when you raise your hands up above your heart, and using the phone’s accelerometer, you’re able to convert that into the relative change in pressure,” says biomedical engineer Vishaal Dhamotharan from the University of Pittsburgh. In tests on 24 people and cross-referencing with a larger database, the app method detected pulse pressure to a reasonably accurate level, within around 8 mm HG. As development continues, the app accuracy level will most likely improve on that even further. The researchers admit they’ll need to work on “changing the mindset” around using pulse pressure as a blood pressure indicator — but it’s the best solution we’ve seen yet for taking this crucial reading using a normal smartphone. “Development of a portable blood pressure measurement device that does not require any external calibration (外部校准) is unrealistic — such a device currently does not exist,” says biomedical engineer Sanjeev Shroff, from the University of Pittsburgh. “The research work reported in this publication is an important step in the right direction.” 12. Why is the newly-developed phone app particularly important? A. It’s much easier to access. B. It’s money-saving. C. It’s a specialized facility. D. It’s more accurate. 13. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about the app? A. The special function of it. B. The working principle of it. C The purpose of developing it. D. The inspiration for developing it. 14. What can we infer about the future of the app in smartphones? A. It will have a bright prospect. B. It will come into the market soon. C. It will be built in every smartphone. D. It will replace the traditional equipment. 15. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To test an app. B. To improve an app. C. To advertise an app. D. To introduce an app. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. A 15.

Lots of efforts are needed. ____18____ Beauty relates to physical and psychological aspects. ____19____ However, Serena Williams never hides her unusual muscular physique.

Fortunately 45. an 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了中国古典小说《西游记》的改编以及中国游戏《黑神话：悟空》的成功与影响。 【36题详解】 考查时态和语态。句意：《西游记》这部中国经典小说在过去的几个世纪里被改编，以其丰富的叙事和人物形象吸引着观众。根据时间状语over the past centuries可知，句子时态要用现在完成时；且主语Journey to the West与adapt之间是被动关系，即小说被改编，所以要用现在完成时的被动语态，其结构为“have/has been + 过去分词”，主语Journey to the West是第三人称单数。故填has been adapted。 37题详解】 考查介词。句意：《西游记》这部中国经典小说在过去的几个世纪里被改编，以其丰富的叙事和人物形象吸引着观众。appeal to是固定短语，意为 “吸引”。故填to。 【38题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：但是8月20日发布的《黑神话：悟空》很特别。句子谓语动词是is，空格处填入非谓语动词，release与其逻辑主语Black Myth: Wukong之间是被动关系，即游戏被发布，所以用过去分词作后置定语，修饰Black Myth: Wukong。故填released。 【39题详解】 考查非限定性定语从句。句意：《黑神话》是一款“3A”游戏，这表明它有高额的预算和高制作水准。空处引导非限定性定语从句，先行词是前面整个句子，关系词在从句中作主语，指物，所以用which引导。故填which。 【40题详解】 考查时态。句意：过去，许多中国人抱怨他们国家无法制作出像《侠盗猎车手》或《魔兽世界》那样刺激的电子游戏。作谓语，根据时间状语In the past可知，句子要用一般过去时，所以动词要用过去式。故填complained。 【41题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意同上。the inability to do sth.是固定用法，意为“在某方面的无能，没有做……的能力”，所以用动词不定式作后置定语，修饰抽象名词inability。故填to produce。 【42题详解】 考查名词。句意：现在他们希望《黑神话》标志着一位新的玩家进入“3A”游戏领域。定冠词the后面需要接名词，作marks宾语，arrive是动词，其名词形式是arrival“到达，到来”。故填arrival。 【43题详解】 考查最高级。句意：《黑神话》的制作公司游戏科学研究了最好的游戏作品和历史资料，以创造一个符合《西游记》风格的游戏世界。根据语境以及定冠词the可知，这里表示“最好的”，用形容词最高级作定语修饰名词titles，good的最高级是best。故填best。 【44题详解】 考查副词。句意：幸运的是，这种决心得到了回报，尽管这个过程花了六年时间。根据空后句子“the determination paid off”可知，这是一件幸运的事情，空处需要用副词修饰整个句子，fortunate是形容词，其副词形式是fortunately“幸运地”，句首单词首字母大写。故填Fortunately。 【45题详解】 考查冠词。句意：官方新闻机构新华社表示，《黑神话》成功地 “以世界级的品质讲述了中国故事，这款游戏在海外获得认可反映了中国文化的魅力”。official news service是可数名词单数，这里表示泛指 “一个官方新闻机构”，且official是以元音音素开头的单词，所以用不定冠词an。故填an。 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节 (满分15分) 46. 上周末你校学生会组织了一次采摘茶叶活动。请向学校校刊英语专栏写一篇报道，介绍这次活动。 内容包括： 1.活动目的及参加人员；2.活动过程；3.活动感受。 注意： 1.写作词数应为80个左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 A Memorable Tea-Picking Experience _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】A Memorable Tea-Picking Experience Aimed at enriching our after-school cultural life and promoting our understanding of tea culture, a tea-picking activity organized by the Student Union was held last weekend.

My friend Allan and I decided to play catch in my yard. We were having fun throwing the ball back and forth. “Run! Nice catch!” It had been days since we enjoyed ourselves. Then, I threw the ball too hard and Allan missed his catch. The ball flew like lightning, crossed the yard and hit my neighbor’s window. We heard the big sound. Crash! Smash! The window broke into many pieces. Allan turned pale, and a look of panic crossed his face. He froze, too scared to move an inch. Without a second thought, I grabbed his hand, whispering, “Come with me!” We ran into my backyard and hid behind a stack of hay. It seemed to be a place of safety. However, my heart was still pounding hard, as if it were about to pop. Mr. Jones, the neighbour, who was a seventy-year-old man, lived alone. Though he was poor, he was well loved in the neighborhood for he always helped those in need. Obviously, he heard the big sound, too. He came out of his house, with a ball in his hands. It was exactly our ball! Did he recognize who the ball belonged to? With butterflies in my stomach, I breathed deeply. In the meantime, Mr. Jones looked around, trying to see who threw the ball. Of course, no one was outside. He gazed the window for a while, and then the ball. Finally, he went back into his house. A few days later, I saw that Mr. Jones had repaired the broken glass. He was sitting outside. When he saw me, he waved at me. I felt ashamed as I waved back at him. I knew what I should do, but I was afraid to do it. Later, my mom and I were talking and she told me about the broken window. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mr. Jones looked at me after I explained what had happened. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Later, my mom and I were talking and she told me about the broken window. “Poor Mr. Jones,” she sighed, “He’s such a nice guy. I can’t believe anyone would break his window and not stay around to apologize.” Hearing what my mom said, I pulled the hem of my clothes tightly, the blood rushing to my face. Catching sight of the embarrassment written in my burning face, she seemed to know everything. “Yes, it’s me.” I confessed that I broke the window by accident, promising that I would go right over now and own up to my mistake. Then I plucked up the courage to knock on Mr. Jones’ door and decided to tell him what I had done. Mr. Jones looked at me after I explained what had happened. He was not angry at all. On the contrary, a gentle smile danced around the corners of his mouth. Relieved but still ashamed. I apologized to him with sincerity and asked how much it cost to repair the window. I told him that I would save my money and pay back every penny of it. Patting me on the shoulder, Mr. Jones replied, “It’s not the money that matters.” He continued, “I was really hurt that someone would do that to me without stopping to apologize. Now that you have come and explained the accident, I feel good again.” What Mr. Jones spoke out had a lasting influence on me, reminding me to be honest and fix every mistake I made. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者玩球时意外打破了邻居琼斯先生家的窗户，作者因为害怕逃走了。事后妈妈的话让作者感到后悔，于是承认是自己打破了窗户，获得了邻居琼斯先生的原谅。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“后来，我妈妈和我聊天，她告诉了我窗户被打破的事”可知，第一段可描写作者感到惭愧和尴尬，承认了是自己打破的窗户。 ②由第二段首句内容“我解释了发生的事情后，琼斯先生看着我”可知，第二段可描写作者跟琼斯先生坦白，获得了原谅。 2.续写线索：聊天——尴尬——认错——道歉——获得原谅 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①道歉：apologize /make an apology ②承认：confess/ acknowledge ③偿还：pay back /repay 情绪类 ①尴尬：embarrassment / awkwardness ②生气的：angry /annoyed 【点睛】[高分句型1] Hearing what my mom said, I pulled the hem of my clothes tightly, the blood rushing to my face.
