Since its invention in 1974 by Hungarian architecture professor Erno Rubik, over 450 million have been sold, making it the Toy of the Year in 1980. Rubik first created it to teach his students three-dimensional (三维的) movement concepts. It took him about a month to solve his first design, and he wasn’t sure it could be solved at first. After its release in the US, books on how to solve it emerged. In 1981,13-year-old Patrick Bossert’s “You Can Do the Cube” sold over 750,000 copies quickly, making him the youngest New York Times best-selling author. There are over 43 quintillion (百万亿亿) possible arrangements of the classic 3x3 cube, yet any Rubik’s Cube can be solved in 20 moves or fewer. Google’s computers took 35 years to calculate this “magical number”. For some, simply solving the cube isn’t enough. “Speedcubers” race to solve the cube as fast as possible. The first cubing world championship was hosted in 1982 in Budapest when the fastest solving time was 22.95 seconds and the current record is 3.13 seconds, held by Max Park. Quite the pop culture icon, the Rubik’ s Cube has made appearances in films like “The Pursuit of Happiness” and TV shows like “The Big Bang Theory”. It’s even in the collection of New York’s Museum of Modern Art. Toady, the cube is not just a recreational but an educational tool. A program brought it into classrooms in 2008 and strengthened its status as a STEM toy and “Rubik’s Academy” plans to use it to teach spatial(空间的)reasoning and perseverance. Even visually impaired (受损的) individuals can enjoy the cube with customized stickers and raised symbols. At 80, Erno Rubik remains passionate about his invention, continuing to inspire and challenge people worldwide. 24. What was the original purpose of Erno Rubik creating the Rubik’s Cube? A. To pursue wealth. B. To entertain his students. C. To assist him with his teaching. D. To promote Hungarian architecture. 25. What does “this magical number” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. The number of Rubik’s Cubes sold worldwide. B. The maximum number of possible arrangements of the cube. C. The minimum number of turns to solve a Rubik’s Cube. D. The number of years it took to calculate the solution. 26. What can we infer about the Rubik’s Cube’s current role? A. It is mainly valued as a collector’s item in museums. B. It has lost its popularity due to technological advancements. C. It is primarily used as a competitive tool in global championships. D. It has expanded its use to diverse educational and inclusive purposes. 27. What is the best title for the passage? A. The History and Popularity of the Rubik’s Cube. B. Solving the Rubik’s Cube: From 22.95 to 3.13. C. The Rubik’s Cube: A Toy for All Ages. D. A Symbol of Pop Culture - The Rubik’s Cube. C Old trees are in big trouble. The whole forests of giant sequoias (红杉) up to 3,000 years old have recently gone up in flames in California. Baobabas (猴面包树) the world’s largest-living flowering plants, are starting to become bent as a result of drought conditions in southern Africa. The cedars (雪松) of Mount Lebanon, ancient symbols of longevity, are now struggling to survive in the area’s warmer, drier conditions. Globally speaking, this is a great reduction: fewer massive trees, fewer ancient trees, fewer old-growth forests, fewer ancient species, and fewer species overall. It is estimated that Earth’s “tree cover” — three trillion plants — covers roughly 30 percent of all available land. However, this tree cover is increasingly composed of trees that have been planted for wood, to take in greenhouse gas or to preserve soils from wind. It’s young stuff. Old-growth communities are rare and getting rarer. Ancient trees provide such services too, but they are, in the first place, gift givers. They inspire long-term thinking and encourage us to be wise. If we could only recognize the urgency with which they are calling upon us to care for them, then we would not hesitate to start slowing climate change down now, and paying it forward to our future generations. Besides, old trees are necessary for sustaining the rich communities of species in forests. They drop seeds that are then eaten and used by animals on the ground. Up high, epiphytes (附生植物) and birds. As the ecologist Meg Lowman put it, there’s a lively “eighth continent” in the tall branches. The ecosystem under them might as well be the ninth. Research has shown that big old trees are of great importance, serving as hubs (枢纽) for hundreds of other trees. The destruction of old growth destroys not just standing trees but also the underground links among them. However, some organizations have single-mindedly pursued tree planting to cushion their emissions. Apparently these efforts are not a fix-all solution to a warmer climate. Protecting our planet’s existing old-growth forests should take priority over generating new tree cover. 28. Why does the author list the examples of old trees in Paragraph 1? A. To remind people of the dangers of climate change. B. To highlight their historical and cultural significance. C. To introduce famous species of trees around the world. D. To warn people of the global challenges faced by old trees. 29 What can be inferred from the text about the relationship between old trees and the ecosystem? A. Old trees mainly provide food for animals on the ground. B. The destruction of ancient trees has little impact on the underground links. C. Old trees are essential for keeping the biodiversity of the forest ecosystem. D. Epiphytes and birds rely more on young trees than on ancient trees. 30. What does the underlined word “cushion” mean in the last paragraph? A. Take account of. B. Keep away from. C. Put a price on. D. Soften the effect of. 31. What is the main idea of the text? A. Different types of trees serve different purposes. B. Planting younger trees is of little environmental value. C. Ancient trees are worthy of our attention and good care. D. Trees are in short supply and growing ever more so. D A recent research revealed that one of the most popular AI chatbots many people rely on has been sharing inaccurate coding and computer programming advice. This highlights a major issue facing AI today: these evolving algorithms (算法) can “hallucinate,” a term describing situations where AI models generate statements that sound reasonable but have been entirely made up. Generative AI applications like large language models serve, functionally, as prediction programs. When users ask questions, the AI scans its knowledge base for relevant information and predicts word sequences it considers appropriate as responses. These predictions build upon one another again and again. But Rayid Ghani, a professor at Carnegie Mellon University’s Machine Learning Department and Heinz College of Information Systems and Public Policy, explains that this process puts greater emphasis on probability than truth. “Most generative AI models have been trained on vast Internet data pools, but no one has checked the accuracy of those data, nor can the AI distinguish trustworthy sources,” he notes. This led to Google’s stupid AI suggestion about using glue on pizza to prevent cheese from sliding off — a proposal relied on a years-old Reddit joke. Ghani observes that while humans easily understand human errors since we recognize that people aren’t perfect things. But we hold machines to higher criteria, which makes AI errors harder to forgive. However, he emphasizes that AIs are human-made systems. By examining both AI processes and the misleading datasets they train on, we might not only improve AI but also reflect on our social and cultural biases embedded (被嵌入) in training data. “We need guardrails (护栏) like quotes-checking tools for chatbots. So third-party checking tools will likely emerge,” Ghani predicts. “But remember: Humans also make mistakes. Just because the book in the library doesn’t guarantee its accuracy.” 32. How do generative AI models respond to user’s questions? A. By accessing checked databases. B. Through repeated word predictions. C. Using pre-written answer models. D. By consulting human experts. 33. What message does the “glue on pizza” example convey ? A. AI may fail to identify unreliable sources. B. AI will prioritize outdated information. C. AI should improve cooking techniques. D. AI can intentionally create humorous content. 34. Why do people find AI mistakes harder to accept than human errors? A. AI lacks emotional intelligence. B. Machines are expected to be perfect. C AI errors cause greater harm. D. Human errors are less frequent. 35. What is mainly discussed in the passage? A. The competition between AI chatbots. B. Challenges and solutions for AI inaccuracy. C. The history of machine learning development. D. Differences between AI and human intelligence. 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。 The world is a colorful landscape of different languages, races, and cultures.

He was fond of parks and nature trails and was saving up for a new bike he could use for his outdoor adventures. One day after school, Niall checked the refrigerator for some leftovers. He was very hungry after spending the early afternoon playing football with his friends. He noticed his mom Linda’s to-do list stuck on the refrigerator door. “Prepare dinner, wash the dishes，mow the lawn (修剪草坪), water the plants，do the laundry, clean the house...” Niall read the list. He realized his mom would only be able to go to bed at one o’clock in the morning if she wanted to accomplish everything. And she had to wake up at five to prepare breakfast for both of them before school and work. “Oh, Mom,’’ Niall sighed. He was sad that his mother had to work hard because she was raising him as a single mother. Without hesitation, he quickly finished his meal and decided to help with the housework on his mom’s list in two hours before she came home. Niall first cleaned the floor and did the laundry. Then he went to his mom’s room to put the folded clothes in the closet, where he saw a beautiful card. It was his mother’s bucket list. Niall found her top wish was to fly to a white sand beach alone. The boy smiled. He knew how much she loved going to the beach and how much she had devoted to the family. Inspired, Niall decided to use the money he had saved to buy a plane ticket for his mom. He could ask his grandma to teach him how to book a flight. He imagined how happy his mom would be when he handed her that ticket. Smiling, Niall quickly placed the clothes inside the closet.

B This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Rubik’s Cube (魔方). Since its invention in 1974 by Hungarian architecture professor Erno Rubik, over 450 million have been sold, making it the Toy of the Year in 1980. Rubik first created it to teach his students three-dimensional (三维的) movement concepts. It took him about a month to solve his first design, and he wasn’t sure it could be solved at first. After its release in the US, books on how to solve it emerged. In 1981,13-year-old Patrick Bossert’s “You Can Do the Cube” sold over 750,000 copies quickly, making him the youngest New York Times best-selling author. There are over 43 quintillion (百万亿亿) possible arrangements of the classic 3x3 cube, yet any Rubik’s Cube can be solved in 20 moves or fewer. Google’s computers took 35 years to calculate this “magical number”. For some, simply solving the cube isn’t enough. “Speedcubers” race to solve the cube as fast as possible. The first cubing world championship was hosted in 1982 in Budapest when the fastest solving time was 22.95 seconds and the current record is 3.13 seconds, held by Max Park. Quite the pop culture icon, the Rubik’ s Cube has made appearances in films like “The Pursuit of Happiness” and TV shows like “The Big Bang Theory”. It’s even in the collection of New York’s Museum of Modern Art. Toady, the cube is not just a recreational but an educational tool. A program brought it into classrooms in 2008 and strengthened its status as a STEM toy and “Rubik’s Academy” plans to use it to teach spatial(空间的)reasoning and perseverance. Even visually impaired (受损的) individuals can enjoy the cube with customized stickers and raised symbols. At 80, Erno Rubik remains passionate about his invention, continuing to inspire and challenge people worldwide. 24. What was the original purpose of Erno Rubik creating the Rubik’s Cube? A. To pursue wealth. B. To entertain his students. C. To assist him with his teaching. D. To promote Hungarian architecture. 25 What does “this magical number” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. The number of Rubik’s Cubes sold worldwide. B. The maximum number of possible arrangements of the cube. C. The minimum number of turns to solve a Rubik’s Cube. D. The number of years it took to calculate the solution. 26. What can we infer about the Rubik’s Cube’s current role? A. It is mainly valued as a collector’s item in museums. B. It has lost its popularity due to technological advancements. C. It is primarily used as a competitive tool in global championships. D. It has expanded its use to diverse educational and inclusive purposes. 27. What is the best title for the passage? A. The History and Popularity of the Rubik’s Cube. B. Solving the Rubik’s Cube: From 22.95 to 3.13. C. The Rubik’s Cube: A Toy for All Ages. D. A Symbol of Pop Culture - The Rubik’s Cube. 【答案】24. C 25. C 26. D 27. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了魔方的发明历史、全球影响力及其在教育领域的应用。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Rubik first created it to teach his students three-dimensional movement concepts. (鲁比克最初创造魔方是为了教授学生三维运动的概念。)”可知，魔方的初衷是辅助教学。故选C。 【25题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“yet any Rubik’s Cube can be solved in 20 moves or fewer. Google’s computers took 35 years to calculate this “magical number”. (然而，任何魔方都可以在20步或更少的步数内解开。谷歌的计算机花了35年时间计算这个“神奇数字”。)”可知结论，“magical number”指的是解开魔方所需的最少步数。故选C。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Toady, the cube is not just a recreational but an educational tool. A program brought it into classrooms in 2008 and strengthened its status as a STEM toy and “Rubik’s Academy” plans to use it to teach spatial (空间的) reasoning and perseverance. Even visually impaired (受损的) individuals can enjoy the cube with customized stickers and raised symbols. (如今，这个立方体不仅是一个娱乐工具，也是一个教育工具。2008年，一个项目把它带进了教室，加强了它作为STEM玩具的地位。“鲁比克学院”计划用它来教授空间推理和毅力。即使是视力受损的人也可以享受这个带有定制贴纸和凸起符号的立方体。)”可知，魔方已扩展到教育和包容性用途。故选D。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。文章从魔方的发明历史、全球影响力、解法的计算、速解竞赛到其在教育和文化中的应用，全面介绍了魔方的历史与流行。选项A“魔方的历史与流行”为短文的最佳标题。故选A。 C Old trees are in big trouble. The whole forests of giant sequoias (红杉) up to 3,000 years old have recently gone up in flames in California. Baobabas (猴面包树) the world’s largest-living flowering plants, are starting to become bent as a result of drought conditions in southern Africa. The cedars (雪松) of Mount Lebanon, ancient symbols of longevity, are now struggling to survive in the area’s warmer, drier conditions. Globally speaking, this is a great reduction: fewer massive trees, fewer ancient trees, fewer old-growth forests, fewer ancient species, and fewer species overall. It is estimated that Earth’s “tree cover” — three trillion plants — covers roughly 30 percent of all available land. However, this tree cover is increasingly composed of trees that have been planted for wood, to take in greenhouse gas or to preserve soils from wind. It’s young stuff. Old-growth communities are rare and getting rarer. Ancient trees provide such services too, but they are, in the first place, gift givers. They inspire long-term thinking and encourage us to be wise. If we could only recognize the urgency with which they are calling upon us to care for them, then we would not hesitate to start slowing climate change down now, and paying it forward to our future generations. Besides, old trees are necessary for sustaining the rich communities of species in forests. They drop seeds that are then eaten and used by animals on the ground. Up high, epiphytes (附生植物) and birds. As the ecologist Meg Lowman put it, there’s a lively “eighth continent” in the tall branches. The ecosystem under them might as well be the ninth. Research has shown that big old trees are of great importance, serving as hubs (枢纽) for hundreds of other trees. The destruction of old growth destroys not just standing trees but also the underground links among them. However, some organizations have single-mindedly pursued tree planting to cushion their emissions. Apparently these efforts are not a fix-all solution to a warmer climate. Protecting our planet’s existing old-growth forests should take priority over generating new tree cover. 28. Why does the author list the examples of old trees in Paragraph 1? A. To remind people of the dangers of climate change. B. To highlight their historical and cultural significance. C. To introduce famous species of trees around the world. D. To warn people of the global challenges faced by old trees. 29. What can be inferred from the text about the relationship between old trees and the ecosystem? A. Old trees mainly provide food for animals on the ground. B. The destruction of ancient trees has little impact on the underground links. C. Old trees are essential for keeping the biodiversity of the forest ecosystem. D. Epiphytes and birds rely more on young trees than on ancient trees. 30. What does the underlined word “cushion” mean in the last paragraph? A. Take account of. B. Keep away from. C. Put a price on. D. Soften the effect of. 31. What is the main idea of the text? A. Different types of trees serve different purposes. B. Planting younger trees is of little environmental value. C. Ancient trees are worthy of our attention and good care. D. Trees are in short supply and growing ever more so. 【答案】28. D 29. C 30. D 31. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文讲述了老树面临的危机，强调其生态价值，呼吁人们保护老树，以确保地球生物多样性和生态平衡。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第一段中“Old trees are in big trouble. The whole forests of giant sequoias (红杉) up to 3,000 years old have recently gone up in flames in California. Baobabas (猴面包树) the world’s largest-living flowering plants, are starting to become bent as a result of drought conditions in southern Africa. The cedars (雪松) of Mount Lebanon, ancient symbols of longevity, are now struggling to survive in the area’s warmer, drier conditions.(老树有大麻烦了。在加利福尼亚，有三千年树龄的巨型红杉森林最近被大火吞噬。猴面包树是世界上寿命最长的开花植物，由于非洲南部的干旱，猴面包树开始弯曲。黎巴嫩山上的雪松，古老的长寿的象征，现在正挣扎着在该地区更温暖、更干燥的环境中生存)”可知，第一句提到老树面临着大麻烦，接着列举了世界各地老树面临的挑战，故作者列举老树的例子是为了警告人们老树面临的全球性挑战。故选D。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Besides, old trees are necessary for sustaining the rich communities of species in forests. They drop seeds that are then eaten and used by animals on the ground. Up high, epiphytes (附生植物) and birds.(此外，老树对于维持森林中丰富的物种群落是必要的。它们撒下种子，然后被地上的动物吃掉和利用。往高，有附生植物和鸟类)”可推知，老树对于保持森林生态系统的生物多样性至关重要。故选C。 【30题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线前“some organizations have single-mindedly pursued tree planting(一些组织一心一意地通过植树来)”和后面的“their emissions(它们的排放)”可知，此处指通过植树来缓冲排放造成的影响，cushion意为“起缓和作用”，故选D。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第一段中“Old trees are in big trouble.(老树有大麻烦了)”和最后一段中“Protecting our planet’s existing old-growth forests should take priority over generating new tree cover.(保护地球上现存的原始森林应该优先于创造新的树木覆盖)”可知， 文章讲述了老树面临的危机，强调其生态价值，呼吁人们保护老树，以确保地球生物多样性和生态平衡。故选C。 D A recent research revealed that one of the most popular AI chatbots many people rely on has been sharing inaccurate coding and computer programming advice. This highlights a major issue facing AI today: these evolving algorithms (算法) can “hallucinate,” a term describing situations where AI models generate statements that sound reasonable but have been entirely made up. Generative AI applications like large language models serve, functionally, as prediction programs. When users ask questions, the AI scans its knowledge base for relevant information and predicts word sequences it considers appropriate as responses. These predictions build upon one another again and again. But Rayid Ghani, a professor at Carnegie Mellon University’s Machine Learning Department and Heinz College of Information Systems and Public Policy, explains that this process puts greater emphasis on probability than truth. “Most generative AI models have been trained on vast Internet data pools, but no one has checked the accuracy of those data, nor can the AI distinguish trustworthy sources,” he notes. This led to Google’s stupid AI suggestion about using glue on pizza to prevent cheese from sliding off — a proposal relied on a years-old Reddit joke. Ghani observes that while humans easily understand human errors since we recognize that people aren’t perfect things. But we hold machines to higher criteria, which makes AI errors harder to forgive. However, he emphasizes that AIs are human-made systems. By examining both AI processes and the misleading datasets they train on, we might not only improve AI but also reflect on our social and cultural biases embedded (被嵌入) in training data. “We need guardrails (护栏) like quotes-checking tools for chatbots. So third-party checking tools will likely emerge,” Ghani predicts. “But remember: Humans also make mistakes. Just because the book in the library doesn’t guarantee its accuracy.” 32. How do generative AI models respond to user’s questions? A. By accessing checked databases. B. Through repeated word predictions. C. Using pre-written answer models. D. By consulting human experts. 33. What message does the “glue on pizza” example convey ? A. AI may fail to identify unreliable sources. B. AI will prioritize outdated information. C. AI should improve cooking techniques. D. AI can intentionally create humorous content. 34. Why do people find AI mistakes harder to accept than human errors? A. AI lacks emotional intelligence. B. Machines are expected to be perfect. C. AI errors cause greater harm. D. Human errors are less frequent. 35. What is mainly discussed in the passage? A. The competition between AI chatbots. B. Challenges and solutions for AI inaccuracy. C. The history of machine learning development. D. Differences between AI and human intelligence. 【答案】32. B 33. A 34. B 35. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要讨论了人工智能不准确性带来的挑战和解决方案。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“When users ask questions, the AI scans its knowledge base for relevant information and predicts word sequences it considers appropriate as responses. These predictions build upon one another again and again.(当用户提出问题时，人工智能会扫描其知识库中的相关信息，并预测它认为合适的单词序列作为回答。这些预测一次又一次地建立在彼此的基础上)”可知，生成式人工智能模型通过重复的单词预测回答用户的问题，故选B。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。第二段中“nor can the AI distinguish trustworthy sources(人工智能也无法区分值得信赖的来源)”提到人工智能也无法区分值得信赖的来源，接着下文“This led to Google’s stupid AI suggestion about using glue on pizza to prevent cheese from sliding off — a proposal relied on a years-old Reddit joke.(这导致谷歌提出了一个愚蠢的人工智能建议，在披萨上使用胶水来防止奶酪滑落——这个建议依赖于Reddit上一个几年前的笑话)”以“披萨上的胶水”为例说明上述观点，故选A。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“But we hold machines to higher criteria, which makes AI errors harder to forgive.(但我们对机器的要求更高，这使得人工智能的错误更难被原谅)”可知，人们对机器的要求更高，所以更难以接受人工智能的错误，故选B。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“A recent research revealed that one of the most popular AI chatbots many people rely on has been sharing inaccurate coding and computer programming advice. This highlights a major issue facing AI today: these evolving algorithms (算法) can ‘hallucinate,’(最近的一项研究显示，许多人依赖的最受欢迎的人工智能聊天机器人之一一直在分享不准确的编码和计算机编程建议。这凸显了当今人工智能面临的一个主要问题：这些不断进化的算法可能会产生‘幻觉’)”和倒数第二段中“By examining both AI processes and the misleading datasets they train on, we might not only improve AI but also reflect on our social and cultural biases embedded (被嵌入) in training data.(通过检查人工智能过程和它们训练的误导性数据集，我们不仅可以改进人工智能，还可以反思我们在训练数据中嵌入的社会和文化偏见)”可知，文章主要讨论了人工智能不准确性带来的挑战和解决方案，故选B。 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分12.5 分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 The world is a colorful landscape of different languages, races, and cultures.

I feel it an honor to deliver a speech on Breaking Boundaries on behalf of my class. To me, breaking boundaries means courageously challenging our limits and overcoming physical, mental or cultural barriers. Take the journalist Edgar Snow as an example. It was through his efforts that the prejudice against China was gradually eliminated, which shows boundary-breaking fosters understanding and harmony. This is what inspires me to bravely conquer inner fears, to challenge difficulties and to embrace diversity. Let’s break boundaries to create a bright future, to make an inclusive society and to make a better world. Thank you for your listening! (98词) 范文（二） Dear teachers and schoolmates, Good afternoon! Today, I’m honored here to make a speech about “Breaking Boundaries”. As far as I’m concerned, it means daring to step out of our comfort zones and challenge limitations. Take MSF for instance. Despite geographical and cultural boundaries, their doctors selflessly offer medical aid globally, saving countless lives. Another example is Abraham Lincoln. He broke social and racial boundaries, fighting for freedom and equality. These acts show that breaking boundaries can bring positive changes for a harmonious society. Inspired by them, I’ll bravely face difficulties and keep exploring new things. Only by doing so can I achieve personal growth and contribute to the world. Thank you for your listening!

He was fond of parks and nature trails and was saving up for a new bike he could use for his outdoor adventures. One day after school, Niall checked the refrigerator for some leftovers. He was very hungry after spending the early afternoon playing football with his friends. He noticed his mom Linda’s to-do list stuck on the refrigerator door. “Prepare dinner, wash the dishes，mow the lawn (修剪草坪), water the plants，do the laundry, clean the house...” Niall read the list. He realized his mom would only be able to go to bed at one o’clock in the morning if she wanted to accomplish everything. And she had to wake up at five to prepare breakfast for both of them before school and work. “Oh, Mom,’’ Niall sighed. He was sad that his mother had to work hard because she was raising him as a single mother. Without hesitation, he quickly finished his meal and decided to help with the housework on his mom’s list in two hours before she came home. Niall first cleaned the floor and did the laundry. Then he went to his mom’s room to put the folded clothes in the closet, where he saw a beautiful card. It was his mother’s bucket list. Niall found her top wish was to fly to a white sand beach alone. The boy smiled. He knew how much she loved going to the beach and how much she had devoted to the family. Inspired, Niall decided to use the money he had saved to buy a plane ticket for his mom. He could ask his grandma to teach him how to book a flight. He imagined how happy his mom would be when he handed her that ticket. Smiling, Niall quickly placed the clothes inside the closet. There were still many other chores — like mowing the lawn — that needed to be done. 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。 Paragraph 1: Then, he hurried downstairs to do them. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Assisted by his grandma, Niall secretly bought his mom a plane ticket . ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1: Then, he hurried downstairs to do them. In the following hour, Niall mowed the lawn, watered the plants, etc. Then, knowing his mom would return home soon, he set the table and heated the leftovers for dinner. When his mother arrived home, Niall was seated at the dinner table, smiling. Noticing what Niall had done, Linda was very happy. Niall kept helping to share the housework in the following days. One afternoon, after saving enough money, Niall invited his grandma to help realize his mom’s dream. Paragraph 2: Assisted by his grandma, Niall secretly bought his mom a plane ticket. He handed it to his mom that evening and explained proudly, “You work so hard, Mom. I want to treat you to something you deserve.” Linda was too moved to speak as she got the ticket. “How could you afford it?” she asked. Listening to Niall’s explanation, Linda couldn’t help but cry. She embraced her son and thanked him for his meaningful gift. Linda felt what she had done finally paid off since her son had already grown into a responsible and considerate person. 【解析】 【导语】本文按照事件发生的先后展开，讲述了10岁的男孩Niall喜欢户外运动，自己想攒钱买一辆新自行车，一天放学后找吃的时候注意到了妈妈每天的待办事项清单以及妈妈的愿望，觉得妈妈很辛苦，决定帮妈妈做家务，并且想自己攒钱买一张机票，让妈妈去自己喜欢的沙滩实现愿望。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然后他匆匆忙忙下楼去做这些事情”可知，第一段可描写Niall都做了些什么家务以及妈妈看到后的反应。 ②由第二段首句内容“在奶奶的帮助下，Naill偷偷给妈妈买了一张机票”可知，第二段可描写妈妈Linda见到机票后的回应，以及感受。 2.续写线索：做家务——给妈妈热饭——攒钱给妈妈买机票——交给妈妈机票——妈妈的感受 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.回家：go back home/return home ②.就坐：be seated/seat oneself/sit down ③.拥抱：embrace sb./hug sb./give sb. a hug 情绪类 ①.高兴：happy/be wild with joy/pleased/joyfu ②.感动：moved/touched/ 【点睛】[高分句型1].
