Her channel, recognized by Guinness World Records as the most popular Chinese-language channel on YouTube, offers a glimpse into a peaceful and leisurely pastoral (田园的) life. Li’s videos often feature her performing tasks like harvesting soybeans, making tofu from scratch, and constructing furniture from bamboo. Her careful attention to detail and resourcefulness are impressive, as she creates everything from clothing to tools using traditional methods. However, her videos are more than just demonstrations of skills; they offer a soothing escape from the chaos of modern life. Li’s videos are filled with peaceful images of nature, playful animals, and heartfelt moments shared with her grandmother. This idealized portrayal of rural living resonated deeply with viewers, particularly during the pandemic when the world felt chaotic and uncertain. By 2021, Li had over 14 million YouTube followers, making her the most successful Chinese-language YouTuber. Despite her popularity, Li remains a mysterious figure. She rarely grants interviews and reveals little about her personal life. Most information available about her comes from interviews with Chinese state media or government-attached websites. According to these sources, Li grew up in rural Sichuan and learned traditional cooking from her grandfather. She left school at 14 and worked various jobs before returning to her hometown to care for her ill grandmother in 2012. Li’s decision to share her rural life online was initially driven by the desire to promote her online store. However, her videos quickly gained a following due to their unique content and soothing aesthetic (美感) . The world Li creates in her videos, along with her story, provides viewers with a much-needed retreat to a simpler and more meaningful way of living. 4. Which of the following best describes the atmosphere in Li Ziqi’s videos? A. Chaotic and fast-paced. B. Humorous and carefree. C. Peaceful and comforting. D. Educational and aggressive. 5. What can we learn about Li Ziqi’s personal life? A. She involves herself actively in a variety of interviews B. She values privacy and hardly reveals her personal life C. She gains great popularity among viewers due to her mystery. D. She becomes the most successful influencer on the social media 6. What was the initial motivation for Li Ziqi to start sharing her videos online? A. To promote her own online store. B. To escape the chaos of modern life. C. To showcase her skills and resources. D. To promote traditional Chinese culture. 7. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. Li Ziqi’s online cooking display B. Li Ziqi’s online pastoral poetics. C. Li Ziqi’s virtual show of local scenery. D. Li Ziqi’s digital diary of rural development. C In the United States, hurricanes and tornadoes get names. When it comes to extreme weather, those storms tend to get an important share of people’s attention. However, hailstorms fly under the radar. Hail (冰雹) not only impacts homes and vehicles, but agriculture, costing the United States $46 billion in 2023. U.S. hail scientists are disappointed that their last major research campaign took place in the late 1970s, over 50 years ago. “It’s just this big hole,” says Adams-Selin, a hail scientist at Atmospheric and Environmental Research. As a result, a project called ICECHIP is set to change that. Some 100 researchers from four countries and 11 states are planning fieldwork in May and June of 2025 in the U.S. Central Plains states, which will be the largest ever international campaign for studying hail. Led by Adams-Selin, ICECHIP researchers hope to gather data that could improve hailstorm prediction. The campaign will rely on new technologies to perform experiments, such as high-speed videography and mobile radar. Researchers will also use balloons to deliver 3D-printed sensors (传感器) into storms to copy the movement of hailstones. A group of 24 ground-based sensors will measure the energy of falling hailstones every 500th of a second, and 3D laser scanners will record collected hailstones’ shapes. Back in the lab, ICECHIP researchers will analyze hailstones’ ice layers to determine the temperature and altitude (海拔) at which they formed — and, in turn, the paths they took through storms. ICECHIP will bring hail research “into the 21st century,” says Adams-Selin. But some technologies from the 1970s will remain, such as hail foam pads (泡沫垫) to catch hailstones and provide outlines of their sizes and shapes. “One day weather agencies will be able to provide hail warnings just as they do for other severe weather events and predict hailstorms at a low cost.” he says. 8. What does the underlined phrase “fly under the radar” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Move on secretly. B. Speed up violently. C. Escape people’s notice. D. Draw people’s attention. 9. Why is the project ICECHIP launched? A. To reduce effects on human lives. B To fill the relevant research gap. C. To predict severe weather events. D. To make up for economic losses. 10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The main functions of the sensors. B. The potential results of the analysis. C. The theoretical basis of the campaign. D. The experimental methods of the research. 11. What is the best title of this passage? A. Hailstorms: a disaster bringing great losses to people’s life B. The United States: a country frequently hit by extreme weather C. ICECHIP: a project helping improve predictions of hailstorms D. Adams-Selin: a scientist devoted to doing research on hailstorms D Standing on a stage, singing a folk song at a local Chinese festival, is an important memory for Kien Vuu. While he was too young to understand the words he was singing, he did understand how much he loved performing music. Vuu did not grow up to become a professional singer. Instead, he became a noted longevity (长寿) doctor. Yet he never lost his love for singing. “In my work as a doctor, I’ve become convinced that having hobbies is an essential part of living and aging well,” he says. In addition to boosting his mood, singing helps him bond with his family and most importantly, feel connected to his Chinese cultural traditions. A wrong view is that engaging in hobbies is a waste of time. However, Dr. Kaiser says nearly all hobbies can provide measurable positive health benefits. And the science backs this up. Multiple studies in 2021 found strong evidence that engaging in entertainment can improve our brain’s networks to change and adapt. Hobbies take advantage of this flexibility and help your brain create new connections, helping you in areas beyond just that particular skill. This can be the reason why Kien Vuu, who has a passion for singing, does well in medicine. Do hobbies make us happier? Absolutely, in many ways. People who made a conscious effort each day to spend time doing hobbies showed an average boost of 8% in well-being and a 10% drop in stress and anxiety, according to a 2023 study published in Journal of Personality. Similarly, folks who reported having at least one hobby were found to have fewer depressive symptoms and higher levels of happiness, health and life satisfaction, according to a 2023 study published in Nature Medicine. Is there a right number of hobbies to have? The answer is individual. Dr. Kaiser points out while a hobby is what you can do in your spare time that brings you joy, not all hobbies are created equal when it comes to health and happiness. 12. What is the biggest influence of loving music on Kien Vuu? A. Promoting his professional growth. B. Protecting him from physical diseases. C. Ridding him of the negative emotions. D. Feeling attached to his Chinese origin. 13. What can the 2021 multiple studies help us understand? A. Students who are good at dancing will come out first in dancing shows. B. People who like playing Chinese chess can perform well in mathematics. C. Parents who prefer writing often have children follow in their footsteps. D. Friends who enjoy science fiction films always go to the cinema in groups. 14. How does the writer explain the findings in the last but one paragraph? A. By giving explanations. B. By raising questions. C. By offering suggestions. D. By making comparisons. 15. What might be discussed after this passage? A. Ways of choosing personal hobbies. B. Benefits of loving performing music. C. Shortcomings of previous research. D. Approaches to doing further studies. 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。 Can we live forever? ____16____ Aging is a fact of life we can’t escape no matter how hard we try, though as a species we’re getting better at lengthening the process. Back in 1950, the global average lifespan was only 45 years old. ____17____ We can mainly thank the advancement of medicine for letting us live longer, but at what point do we stop growing and start aging? It’s generally understood that once we reach our late 20s we make the change of developing into aging, which means “the process of growing old”. ____18____ That seems to be because of the way our species has evolved. ____19____ So it might make sense that, like any machine, you could live forever if you keep your body well-fueled and maintained. Generally speaking, many evolutionary biologists have concluded that we age simply because the driving force of evolution, known as natural selection, hasn’t selected for fitness and function at an older age. Of course, humans aren’t alone in this. ____20____ Many cold-blooded species such as lizards (蜥蜴) keep their fitness and reproductive (繁殖的) abilities and are considered to have insignificantly aging. These animals age very slowly and typically die from non-age related events such as being killed by other animals, disease or natural disasters. A. What is aging and why do we get older? B. Is this because cells gradually lose some genetic information? C. In comparison, now the global average is above 70 years old. D. You might say that some lifeless machines can last far longer than humans. E. After that, our bodies become less efficient at maintaining biological systems. F. A study found that we can stop aging but we have to reach 105 years old first. G. Other species have evolved a similar reproductive life cycle — but not all of them. 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。 I find even small things can have an impact on our awareness.

We decided to let it continue growing until we could ____24____ what it was. Weeks passed and as I made my way back to the ____25____ plant, it appeared to be a Sunflower. I decided to baby it along. As I pulled rocks from the area to get to the weeds, I noticed something ____26____. The Sunflower had not started where I saw the stalk (茎) begin. It ____27____ had begun under a big rock. That’s when I realized that if a tiny little Sunflower didn’t let a big rock get ____28____ its way of developing, we too have the ____29____ of doing the same thing. Once our environment begins to see that we believe in ourselves like that little Sunflower, we can _____30_____ the same nutrition and grow as well. We need to believe in ourselves, _____31_____ we are able to achieve our desires. Like the Sunflower, it knew it could _____32_____ its difficulty because it trusted the Universal Truth and had _____33_____ it would succeed.

Our out-of-town guests would be arriving shortly, and my children would soon be off for the break. My list of things that needed to be bought, baked, cooked, decorated, or wrapped was a mile long, and I was running out of time. I grabbed a pencil and paper and began to make a plan. With a little luck and some careful planning, I might be able to get it all done. While sitting at the kitchen table writing out the last of my festival cards, it suddenly occurred to me that one of our school moms was financially struggling and emotionally depressed for some reason. The mom’s name was Becky. Her daughter rode on the school bus with my three children. Several of us moms dropped our kids off at the school bus every morning and collected them after school at the same place. We would chat with each other while we waited for the bus to arrive before and after school. Becky was kind and gentle, but she seemed shy. She never joined the rest of us while we chatted. I didn’t know what made me think of it, but I couldn’t get Becky out of my mind. My heart broke for her and her daughter, and I wondered what the New Year would be like for them this year. I felt led to do something that I did not feel at all comfortable doing. I honestly didn’t know where the idea came from, but I knew that I was going to have to do it. After discussing with my best friend Sharon, we decided to ask the moms at the bus stop to contribute some money toward festival gifts for Becky and her daughter. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 The next morning, the usual group of ladies was at the bus stop waiting in their cars. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When we arrived at the department store, we noticed a huge sign in the window, “ONE DAY SALE 40% OFF.” ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 丰城九中2024-2025学年下学期高一日新英语开学考试 英语试题 分值：150 考试时间：120分钟 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?

When it comes to extreme weather, those storms tend to get an important share of people’s attention. However, hailstorms fly under the radar. Hail (冰雹) not only impacts homes and vehicles, but agriculture, costing the United States $46 billion in 2023. U.S. hail scientists are disappointed that their last major research campaign took place in the late 1970s, over 50 years ago. “It’s just this big hole,” says Adams-Selin, a hail scientist at Atmospheric and Environmental Research. As a result, a project called ICECHIP is set to change that. Some 100 researchers from four countries and 11 states are planning fieldwork in May and June of 2025 in the U.S. Central Plains states, which will be the largest ever international campaign for studying hail. Led by Adams-Selin, ICECHIP researchers hope to gather data that could improve hailstorm prediction. The campaign will rely on new technologies to perform experiments, such as high-speed videography and mobile radar. Researchers will also use balloons to deliver 3D-printed sensors (传感器) into storms to copy the movement of hailstones. A group of 24 ground-based sensors will measure the energy of falling hailstones every 500th of a second, and 3D laser scanners will record collected hailstones’ shapes. Back in the lab, ICECHIP researchers will analyze hailstones’ ice layers to determine the temperature and altitude (海拔) at which they formed — and, in turn, the paths they took through storms. ICECHIP will bring hail research “into the 21st century,” says Adams-Selin. But some technologies from the 1970s will remain, such as hail foam pads (泡沫垫) to catch hailstones and provide outlines of their sizes and shapes. “One day weather agencies will be able to provide hail warnings just as they do for other severe weather events and predict hailstorms at a low cost.” he says. 8. What does the underlined phrase “fly under the radar” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Move on secretly. B. Speed up violently. C. Escape people’s notice. D. Draw people’s attention. 9. Why is the project ICECHIP launched? A. To reduce effects on human lives. B. To fill the relevant research gap. C. To predict severe weather events. D. To make up for economic losses. 10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The main functions of the sensors. B. The potential results of the analysis. C. The theoretical basis of the campaign. D. The experimental methods of the research. 11. What is the best title of this passage? A. Hailstorms: a disaster bringing great losses to people’s life B. The United States: a country frequently hit by extreme weather C. ICECHIP: a project helping improve predictions of hailstorms D. Adams-Selin: a scientist devoted to doing research on hailstorms 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项名为ICECHIP的针对冰雹风暴的预测项目，体现科学研究对人类的帮助。 【8题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线词的上文“When it comes to extreme weather, those storms tend to get an important share of people’s attention.(当涉及到极端天气时，这些风暴往往会引起人们的很大关注)”和However可知，划线词和上文之间是转折关系，所以划线词意思应该是不被人注意，即“逃避人们的注意”。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“U.S. hail scientists are disappointed that their last major research campaign took place in the late 1970s, over 50 years ago. “It’s just this big hole,” says Adams-Selin, a hail scientist at Atmospheric and Environmental Research.(美国冰雹科学家感到失望的是，他们上一次重大的研究活动发生在20世纪70年代末，也就是50多年前。“这就是一个大洞，”大气与环境研究所的冰雹科学家亚当斯-塞林说)”可知，启动ICECHIP项目是为了填补相关研究空白。故选B项。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第四段“The campaign will rely on new technologies to perform experiments, such as high-speed videography and mobile radar.(该运动将依靠新技术进行实验，如高速摄像和移动雷达)”和“ Back in the lab, ICECHIP researchers will analyze hailstones’ ice layers to determine the temperature and altitude (海拔) at which they formed — and, in turn, the paths they took through storms.(回到实验室后，ICECHIP研究人员将分析冰雹的冰层，以确定它们形成的温度和高度，进而确定它们穿过风暴的路径)”可知，第四段主要介绍了本研究的实验方法。故选D项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，并结合第三段“As a result, a project called ICECHIP is set to change that. Some 100 researchers from four countries and 11 states are planning fieldwork in May and June of 2025 in the U.S. Central Plains states, which will be the largest ever international campaign for studying hail. Led by Adams-Selin, ICECHIP researchers hope to gather data that could improve hailstorm prediction.(因此，一个名为ICECHIP的项目将改变这一现状。来自4个国家和11个州的约100名研究人员计划于2025年5月和6月在美国中部平原各州进行实地考察，这将是有史以来规模最大的研究冰雹的国际活动。在Adams-Selin的带领下，ICECHIP的研究人员希望收集数据来改善冰雹的预测)”可知，文章主要介绍了一项名为ICECHIP的针对冰雹风暴的预测项目，体现科学研究对人类的帮助，所以C选项“ICECHIP：一个帮助改善冰雹预测的项目”能概括全文内容，适合用作文章标题。故选C项。 D Standing on a stage, singing a folk song at a local Chinese festival, is an important memory for Kien Vuu. While he was too young to understand the words he was singing, he did understand how much he loved performing music. Vuu did not grow up to become a professional singer. Instead, he became a noted longevity (长寿) doctor. Yet he never lost his love for singing. “In my work as a doctor, I’ve become convinced that having hobbies is an essential part of living and aging well,” he says. In addition to boosting his mood, singing helps him bond with his family and most importantly, feel connected to his Chinese cultural traditions. A wrong view is that engaging in hobbies is a waste of time. However, Dr. Kaiser says nearly all hobbies can provide measurable positive health benefits. And the science backs this up. Multiple studies in 2021 found strong evidence that engaging in entertainment can improve our brain’s networks to change and adapt. Hobbies take advantage of this flexibility and help your brain create new connections, helping you in areas beyond just that particular skill. This can be the reason why Kien Vuu, who has a passion for singing, does well in medicine. Do hobbies make us happier? Absolutely, in many ways. People who made a conscious effort each day to spend time doing hobbies showed an average boost of 8% in well-being and a 10% drop in stress and anxiety, according to a 2023 study published in Journal of Personality. Similarly, folks who reported having at least one hobby were found to have fewer depressive symptoms and higher levels of happiness, health and life satisfaction, according to a 2023 study published in Nature Medicine. Is there a right number of hobbies to have? The answer is individual. Dr. Kaiser points out while a hobby is what you can do in your spare time that brings you joy, not all hobbies are created equal when it comes to health and happiness. 12. What is the biggest influence of loving music on Kien Vuu? A. Promoting his professional growth. B. Protecting him from physical diseases. C. Ridding him of the negative emotions. D. Feeling attached to his Chinese origin. 13. What can the 2021 multiple studies help us understand? A. Students who are good at dancing will come out first in dancing shows. B. People who like playing Chinese chess can perform well in mathematics. C. Parents who prefer writing often have children follow in their footsteps. D. Friends who enjoy science fiction films always go to the cinema in groups. 14. How does the writer explain the findings in the last but one paragraph? A. By giving explanations. B. By raising questions. C. By offering suggestions. D. By making comparisons. 15. What might be discussed after this passage? A. Ways of choosing personal hobbies. B. Benefits of loving performing music. C. Shortcomings of previous research. D. Approaches to doing further studies. 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了兴趣爱好对人类身心健康有着积极的影响。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章首句和第二段最后一句话“ In addition to boosting his mood, singing helps him bond with his family and most importantly, feel connected to his Chinese cultural traditions.(除了提升他的情绪，唱歌还有助于他与家人建立联系，最重要的是，让他感受到与中国文化传统的联系。)”可知，爱好音乐对Vuu最大的影响是让他感受到和中国的联系。故选D项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段内容“Multiple studies in 2021 found strong evidence that engaging in entertainment can improve our brain’s networks to change and adapt. Hobbies take advantage of this flexibility and help your brain create new connections, helping you in areas beyond just that particular skill.( 2021年的多项研究发现，有强有力的证据表明，参与娱乐活动可以改善我们大脑的网络，使其能够改变和适应。爱好利用了这种灵活性，帮助你的大脑建立新的联系，帮助你在特定技能之外的领域。)”可知，2021年的研究证明参与娱乐活动对大脑网络有改善作用，并帮助建立新的联系，在特定技能之外的领域有所积极影响。由此可推知，选项B“People who like playing Chinese chess can perform well in mathematics.(喜欢下棋的人在数学方面表现很好。)”这一论述是可以通过这些研究解释的。故选B项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段首先提及“People who made a conscious effort each day to spend time doing hobbies showed an average boost of 8% in well-being and a 10% drop in stress and anxiety.(每天有意识地花时间做爱好的人，幸福感平均提升8%，压力和焦虑下降10%)”可知，该句在论证时用了数字对比；同时“Similarly, folks who reported having at least one hobby were found to have fewer depressive symptoms and higher levels of happiness…(同样，那些至少有一种爱好的人抑郁症状更少，幸福感更高……)”可知，该句使用了形容词比较级。由此可推知，作者是通过作比较来解释研究结果的。故选D项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最一段“Dr. Kaiser points out while a hobby is what you can do in your spare time that brings you joy, not all hobbies are created equal when it comes to health and happiness.(Kaiser博士指出，虽然爱好是你在业余时间可以做的能给你带来快乐的事情，但在健康和幸福方面，并非所有爱好都是平等的。)”可知，该段末尾部分开始提到了并非所有的爱好都是平等的，即，爱好其实具有“选择性”，那么可推知，接下来文章会讲述如何选择个人的兴趣爱好。故选A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。 Can we live forever? ____16____ Aging is a fact of life we can’t escape no matter how hard we try, though as a species we’re getting better at lengthening the process. Back in 1950, the global average lifespan was only 45 years old. ____17____ We can mainly thank the advancement of medicine for letting us live longer, but at what point do we stop growing and start aging? It’s generally understood that once we reach our late 20s we make the change of developing into aging, which means “the process of growing old”. ____18____ That seems to be because of the way our species has evolved. ____19____ So it might make sense that, like any machine, you could live forever if you keep your body well-fueled and maintained. Generally speaking, many evolutionary biologists have concluded that we age simply because the driving force of evolution, known as natural selection, hasn’t selected for fitness and function at an older age. Of course, humans aren’t alone in this. ____20____ Many cold-blooded species such as lizards (蜥蜴) keep their fitness and reproductive (繁殖的) abilities and are considered to have insignificantly aging. These animals age very slowly and typically die from non-age related events such as being killed by other animals, disease or natural disasters. A. What is aging and why do we get older? B. Is this because cells gradually lose some genetic information? C. In comparison, now the global average is above 70 years old. D You might say that some lifeless machines can last far longer than humans. E. After that, our bodies become less efficient at maintaining biological systems. F. A study found that we can stop aging but we have to reach 105 years old first. G. Other species have evolved a similar reproductive life cycle — but not all of them. 【答案】16. A 17. C 18. E 19. D 20. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章指出衰老不可避免但人类平均寿命因医学进步而延长，并探讨了衰老的本质及原因，还说明人类并非唯一有衰老现象的物种，但一些冷血动物衰老缓慢。 【16题详解】 前文“Can we live forever? (我们能永远活着吗)”提出永生的问题，后文段落围绕衰老的概念、人类衰老的原因等展开论述，因此A项“What is aging and why do we get older? (什么是衰老以及我们为什么会变老)”符合语境，就衰老的本质和原因提出问题，承接前文，引出后文关于衰老的具体讨论。故选A。 【17题详解】 前文“Back in 1950, the global average lifespan was only 45 years old. (回到1950年，全球平均寿命只有45岁)”提到1950年全球的平均寿命；后文“We can mainly thank the advancement of medicine for letting us live longer (我们主要要感谢先进的医学让我们活得更久)”提到寿命的延长主要得益于医学进步；因此C项“In comparison, now the global average is above 70 years old. (相比之下，现在全球平均寿命超过70岁)”点明当前全球的平均寿命，和前文形成比较，引出后文的原因，符合语境。故选C。 【18题详解】 前文“It’s generally understood that once we reach our late 20s we make the change of developing into aging, which means “the process of growing old”.

Our out-of-town guests would be arriving shortly, and my children would soon be off for the break. My list of things that needed to be bought, baked, cooked, decorated, or wrapped was a mile long, and I was running out of time. I grabbed a pencil and paper and began to make a plan. With a little luck and some careful planning, I might be able to get it all done. While sitting at the kitchen table writing out the last of my festival cards, it suddenly occurred to me that one of our school moms was financially struggling and emotionally depressed for some reason. The mom’s name was Becky. Her daughter rode on the school bus with my three children. Several of us moms dropped our kids off at the school bus every morning and collected them after school at the same place. We would chat with each other while we waited for the bus to arrive before and after school. Becky was kind and gentle, but she seemed shy. She never joined the rest of us while we chatted. I didn’t know what made me think of it, but I couldn’t get Becky out of my mind. My heart broke for her and her daughter, and I wondered what the New Year would be like for them this year. I felt led to do something that I did not feel at all comfortable doing. I honestly didn’t know where the idea came from, but I knew that I was going to have to do it. After discussing with my best friend Sharon, we decided to ask the moms at the bus stop to contribute some money toward festival gifts for Becky and her daughter. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 The next morning, the usual group of ladies was at the bus stop waiting in their cars. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When we arrived at the department store, we noticed a huge sign in the window, “ONE DAY SALE 40% OFF.” ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】The next morning, the usual group of ladies was at the bus stop waiting in their cars. Anxious and hesitant, we approached the first mom. She listened as we shared our idea with her. When we asked if she would like to contribute a small amount toward some gifts, she said she would love to and handed us twenty dollars. That was encouraging and made it easier to approach the next car, and then the next one, each time being met with smiles, words of encouragement, and generous donations. Tears ran down the cheeks of one mom as she wrote us a cheque/check for one hundred dollars! With all the contributions collected and counted, Sharon and I decided to shop for the gifts together. When we arrived at the department store, we noticed a huge sign in the window, “ONE DAY SALE 40% OFF.” The money we had collected was going to go even further than we had anticipated. We found some beautiful gifts for Becky and her daughter. After filling two huge baskets with healthy groceries and tasty treats, we still hadn’t used up all of the money! We were able to purchase a few gift cards for some fun activities that Becky and her daughter could enjoy together over the holidays. When we dropped them off at her home, Becky was so touched that she cried tears of gratitude and appreciation. A miracle is when one plus one equals a thousand. 【解析】 【导语】本文以礼物为线索，讲述了作者在新年即将到来时，决定为一位经济困难且情绪低落的妈妈Becky及其女儿送上节日礼物的故事。作者和朋友Sharon通过向其他妈妈们募捐，为Becky和她的女儿准备了礼物和食品。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①第一段首句“第二天早上，一群常来的女士们像往常一样在各自的车里等待着校车。”表明，作者和Sharon开始向其他妈妈们募捐。她们最初感到焦虑和犹豫，但随着第一位妈妈的积极响应，她们逐渐获得了更多的支持和鼓励。 ②第二段首句“当我们到达百货商店时，我们注意到橱窗里有一个巨大的招牌，上面写着“一日大减价，四折优惠”。”表明，作者和Sharon在购物时意外发现了一天折扣活动，这使得她们能够用有限的资金购买更多的礼物，最终为Becky和她的女儿准备了丰富的节日礼物。 2. 续写线索：新年来临——想起孩子班里同学家庭困难——决定帮忙——募捐过程——妈妈们的积极响应——收集到足够的资金——购物时发现折扣活动——购买礼物和食品——将礼物送到Becky家中——Becky的感动。 3. 词汇激活： 行为类： ①募捐：contribute/donate/give ②收集：collect/gather/accumulate ③填满：fill/stuff/pack ④购买：purchase/buy/acquire 情绪类： ①感动：touched/moved/affected ②感激：gratitude/ thankfulness/appreciation ③欣赏：appreciation/admiration/esteem 【点睛】【高级句型1】That was encouraging and made it easier to approach the next car, and then the next one, each time being met with smiles, words of encouragement, and generous donations.
