Because more and more people have taken notice of it, the number of the people who go to learn English has increased at a high speed. But for myself I learn English not only because of its importance and its usefulness, but also because of my love for it. When I learn English, I can feel a different way of thinking which gives me more room to touch the world. When I read English novels, I can feel the pleasure from the book which is different from reading the translation. When I speak English, I can feel the confidence from my words. When I write English,I can see the beauty which is not the same as our Chinese… I love English, because it gives me a colorful dream. I hope I can travel around the world one day. With my good English, I can make friends with many people from different countries and see many places of great interests. I dream that I can go to London, because it is the birthplace of English. I also want to use my good English to introduce our great places to the people who speak English. I hope that they can love our country like us. I know, Rome was not built in a day. I believe that after continuous hard study, one day I can speak English very well. If you want to be loved, you should learn to love and be lovable. So I believe, as I love English, it will love me too. I am sure that I will realize my dream one day! 4. What’s the main idea of the first paragraph? A. English is changing quickly. B.

Researchers have predictions that show virtual reality will make a great difference to our society. In the same way that the smartphone changed our lives, virtual reality may be set to do the same. Virtual reality changes how we view technology. Until now technology has always been something that we have viewed but never been truly immersed in (沉浸其中). Virtual reality has the power to change that. There will come a time when we sit on a VR chair or step inside a VR room, put on a VR device (设备), and enter a totally different world. The technology is largely available already, so with further advances taking place we could be about to enter entirely different worlds. Today the obvious application of virtual reality is gaming but there are many more applications as well. In business, virtual reality could be used to improve communications. Many companies have to pay a lot for sending their team to different places. As worldwide business continues, it is increasingly important for teams in different areas of the world to work together. Although the video meeting solutions have been a success, they are just not as good as the real thing. Virtual reality can offer an experience as good as the real thing without any of the expense of travel. While the virtual reality technology is still being developed we are not far away from a truly immersive experience. Within the next ten years, a solution will be in place, which will be so believable that people will be unable to tell the difference between it and reality. In time the cost will reduce as well, making it possible to have a VR experience in every home and business. 8. Why is the smartphone mentioned in the first paragraph? A. To show the popularity of virtual reality. B. To praise the development of virtual reality. C. To state people’s anxieties in terms of virtual reality. D. To explain the influence of virtual reality on people’s lives. 9. In which way is virtual reality technology different from the traditional technology? A. It reduces the need for the communication. B. It can provide an immersive experience. C. It is applied to gaming and business. D It is more convenient to operate. 10. What does the underlined word “expense” mean in the third paragraph? A. Tiredness. B. Schedule. C. Stress. D. Cost. 11. What can we expect of the virtual reality technology? A. It will help reduce technology costs B. It will take people away from reality. C. It will be widely used in people’s lives. D. It will take the place of other technologies. D John Von Neumann was the oldest of 3 children of a banker, and his speed of learning new ideas and of solving problems stood out early. At 17, his father tried to persuade him not to become a mathematician because he may lead a poor life being a mathematician, and so Von Neumann agreed to study chemistry as well. In 1926, at 23, he received a degree in chemical engineering and a Ph.D. in mathematics. From then on, mathematics provided well enough for him, and he never had to turn to chemistry. In 1930, Von Neumann visited Princeton University for a year and then became a professor there. His first book was published in 1932. In 1933, the Institute for Advanced Study was formed, and he became one of the 6 full-time people in the School of Mathematics (Einstein was one of the others). World War II hugely changed Von Neumann’s areas of interest. Until 1940 he had been a great pure (纯粹的) mathematician. During and after the war, he became one of the best mathematicians who put mathematics theories into practice. During the last part of the war he became interested in computing machines and made several fundamental contributions. After the war, Von Neumann continued his work with computers, and was generally very active in government service. He received many awards, was president of the American Mathematical Society and was a member of the Atomic Energy Commission. He died in 1957 of cancer. Von Neumann made several great contributions and any one of them would have been enough to earn him a firm place in history. He will be remembered as one of the greatest minds of the 20th century. Von Neumann really was a legend (传奇) in his own time, and there are a number of stories about him. His driving ability is a part of this legend. He reported one accident this way: “I was driving down the road. The trees on the right were passing me in an orderly fashion at 60 miles per hour. Suddenly one of them stepped in my path.” 12. According to the text, Von Neumann’s father believed that ________. A. a mathematician couldn’t earn a lot of money B. a mathematician needed a good memory C. Von Neumann had the ability to learn two subjects at the same time D. Von Neumann had a gift for solving problems at a high speed 13. Von Neumann published his first book at the age of ________. A. 23 B. 26 C. 29 D. 32 14. How did World War II affect John Von Neumann? A. He realized the importance of engineering. B. He began to research how to put mathematics into practice. C. He left college and served at the government department. D. He lost interest in chemistry. 15. From the last paragraph, we can infer John Von Neumann was _______. A. calm B. brave C. intelligent D. humorous 第三部分 语言运用（共三节） 第一节 七选五（共5小题10分） Children start out as natural scientists, eager to look into the world around them. ___16___.There’s no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab equipment. You only have to share your children’s curiosity. Listen to their questions. I once visited a classroom of seven-year-olds to talk about science as a job. After my sharing, a boy raised his hand and asked me some questions, “Have you ever seen a grasshopper eat? When I try eating leaves like that, I get a stomachache. Why?”___17___ Give them time to think. Studies over the past 30 years have shown that, after a question, adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer. ____18____When adults increase their “wait time” to three seconds or more, children give more logical, complete and creative answers. ____19____ Once you have a child in a science discussion, don’t jump in with “That’s right” or “Very good”. These words work well when it comes to encouraging good behavior. But in talking about science, quick praise can signal that discussion is over. Instead, keep things going by saying, “That’s interesting”or “I’d never thought of it that way before,” or coming up with more questions or ideas. Show rather than tell. Real-life impressions of nature are far more impressive than any lesson children can learn from a book or a television program. Let children look at their fingertips through a magnifying glass (放大镜).____20____ A. Do not interrupt. B. Pay attention to your words. C. There is no time for a child to think. D. Helping them enjoy science can be easy. E. This began a set of questions that lasted nearly two hours. F. So in this way we don’t need to develop their interest in science. G. And they’ll understand why you want them to wash before dinner. 第二节 完形填空（共15小题）30分 I never planned on learning Chinese.

Chinese characters are totally foreign and hard to ___22___. I quickly got sick of a state of being confused and decided to ___23___ for the Chinese class offered by my university. I had Chinese every weekday, after which I spent at least an hour ___24___ the lesson. In the evening my friends and I quizzed each other on the ___25___ we had to memorize. More importantly, I made a conscious ___26___ to speak in Chinese in stores and restaurants. I was ___27___ when I was able to maintain a simple conversation with the locals. When I regularly achieved A’s on my Chinese exams, I thought it was time to take a ___28___ from studying Chinese every day and focus on my other classes. Unluckily, this turned out to be a(n) ___29___. Due to the break, my whole study habits were suffering and the other lessons themselves were getting ____30____. I had to come up with new study methods and ____31____ over. With finals drawing near, I have set my golden rule: there isn’t a(n) ____32____ way to learn a new language. Once you realize and accept that you are a beginner, it becomes an ongoing process of exploration, ____33____, rethinking, and trying again. Can I speak it out smoothly now? Not even close.

Researchers have predictions that show virtual reality will make a great difference to our society. In the same way that the smartphone changed our lives, virtual reality may be set to do the same. Virtual reality changes how we view technology. Until now technology has always been something that we have viewed but never been truly immersed in (沉浸其中). Virtual reality has the power to change that. There will come a time when we sit on a VR chair or step inside a VR room, put on a VR device (设备), and enter a totally different world. The technology is largely available already, so with further advances taking place we could be about to enter entirely different worlds. Today the obvious application of virtual reality is gaming but there are many more applications as well. In business virtual reality could be used to improve communications. Many companies have to pay a lot for sending their team to different places. As worldwide business continues, it is increasingly important for teams in different areas of the world to work together. Although the video meeting solutions have been a success, they are just not as good as the real thing. Virtual reality can offer an experience as good as the real thing without any of the expense of travel. While the virtual reality technology is still being developed we are not far away from a truly immersive experience. Within the next ten years, a solution will be in place, which will be so believable that people will be unable to tell the difference between it and reality. In time the cost will reduce as well, making it possible to have a VR experience in every home and business. 8. Why is the smartphone mentioned in the first paragraph? A. To show the popularity of virtual reality. B. To praise the development of virtual reality. C. To state people’s anxieties in terms of virtual reality. D. To explain the influence of virtual reality on people’s lives. 9. In which way is virtual reality technology different from the traditional technology? A. It reduces the need for the communication. B. It can provide an immersive experience. C. It is applied to gaming and business. D. It is more convenient to operate. 10. What does the underlined word “expense” mean in the third paragraph? A. Tiredness. B. Schedule. C. Stress. D. Cost. 11. What can we expect of the virtual reality technology? A. It will help reduce technology costs B. It will take people away from reality. C. It will be widely used in people’s lives. D. It will take the place of other technologies. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述了虚拟现实技术的现状及其对未来社会可能产生的影响，与过去的技术以及当前的应用进行对比，并展望其未来的发展及应用。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Researchers have predictions that show virtual reality will make a great difference to our society. In the same way that the smartphone changed our lives, virtual reality may be set to do the same. (研究人员预测虚拟现实将对我们的社会带来巨大变化。正如智能手机改变了我们的生活，虚拟现实可能将同样做到这一点)”可以推知，此处提到智能手机是为了说明虚拟现实对人类生活的影响。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Until now technology has always been something that we have viewed but never been truly immersed in. Virtual reality has the power to change that. (直到现在，技术一直是我们所看到的东西，但从未真正沉浸其中。虚拟现实有力量改变这一点)”可以推知，虚拟现实技术不同于传统技术的地方在于它可以提供沉浸式体验。故选B。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第三段“Virtual reality can offer an experience as good as the real thing (虚拟现实可以提供与真实事物一样好的体验)”可知，虚拟现实没有任何旅行的费用。所以“expense”结合上下文可知指的是旅行中的开销，所以“expense”是“费用、成本”的意思。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“In time the cost will reduce as well, making it possible to have a VR experience in every home and business. (随着时间的推移，成本也将降低，使每个家庭和企业都可以获得VR体验)可以推知，虚拟现实技术将在未来被广泛应用于人们的生活。故选C。 D John Von Neumann was the oldest of 3 children of a banker, and his speed of learning new ideas and of solving problems stood out early. At 17, his father tried to persuade him not to become a mathematician because he may lead a poor life being a mathematician, and so Von Neumann agreed to study chemistry as well. In 1926, at 23, he received a degree in chemical engineering and a Ph.D. in mathematics. From then on, mathematics provided well enough for him, and he never had to turn to chemistry. In 1930, Von Neumann visited Princeton University for a year and then became a professor there. His first book was published in 1932. In 1933, the Institute for Advanced Study was formed, and he became one of the 6 full-time people in the School of Mathematics (Einstein was one of the others). World War II hugely changed Von Neumann’s areas of interest. Until 1940 he had been a great pure (纯粹的) mathematician. During and after the war, he became one of the best mathematicians who put mathematics theories into practice. During the last part of the war he became interested in computing machines and made several fundamental contributions. After the war, Von Neumann continued his work with computers, and was generally very active in government service. He received many awards, was president of the American Mathematical Society and was a member of the Atomic Energy Commission. He died in 1957 of cancer. Von Neumann made several great contributions and any one of them would have been enough to earn him a firm place in history. He will be remembered as one of the greatest minds of the 20th century. Von Neumann really was a legend (传奇) in his own time, and there are a number of stories about him. His driving ability is a part of this legend. He reported one accident this way: “I was driving down the road. The trees on the right were passing me in an orderly fashion at 60 miles per hour. Suddenly one of them stepped in my path.” 12. According to the text, Von Neumann’s father believed that ________. A. a mathematician couldn’t earn a lot of money B. a mathematician needed a good memory C. Von Neumann had the ability to learn two subjects at the same time D. Von Neumann had a gift for solving problems at a high speed 13. Von Neumann published his first book at the age of ________. A. 23 B. 26 C. 29 D. 32 14. How did World War II affect John Von Neumann? A. He realized the importance of engineering. B. He began to research how to put mathematics into practice. C. He left college and served at the government department. D. He lost interest in chemistry. 15. From the last paragraph, we can infer John Von Neumann was _______. A. calm B. brave C. intelligent D. humorous 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了数学家John von Neumann (约翰·冯·诺依曼)的生平事迹。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“At 17, his father tried to persuade him not to become a mathematician because he might lead a poor life being a mathematician, so von Neumann agreed to study chemistry as well. (17岁时，他的父亲试图说服他不要成为一名数学家，因为他当数学家可能会过着贫穷的生活，所以冯·诺依曼也同意学习化学)”可知，冯·诺依曼的父亲认为数学家的生活可能会比较清贫，即数学家赚不了很多钱。故选A项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“In 1926, at 23, he received a degree in chemical engineering and a Ph.D. in mathematics. (1926年，23岁的他获得了化学工程学位和数学博士学位)”和第二段中的“His first book was published in 1932. (他的第一本书于1932年出版)”可知，他29岁时出版了自己的第一本书。故选C项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“World WarⅡ hugely changed von Neumann’s areas of interest. Until 1940 he had been a great pure mathematician. During and after the war, he became one of the best mathematicians who put mathematical theories into practice. During the last part of the war he became interested in computing machines and made several fu (第二次世界大战极大地改变了冯·诺依曼的兴趣领域。直到1940年，他一直是一位伟大的纯粹数学家。在战争期间和战后，他成为将数学理论付诸实践的最好的数学家之一)”可知，二战使约翰·冯·诺依曼把数学理论应用到实践中。故选B项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“He reported one accident this way: “I was driving down the road. The trees on the right were passing me in an orderly fashion at 60 miles per hour. Suddenly one of them stepped in my path.””（他这样报道了一起事故：“我当时正沿着公路行驶。右边的树以每小时60英里的速度有序地从我身边经过。突然其中一棵树挡住了我的去路。”）可知，John Von Neumann很幽默。故选D项。 第三部分 语言运用（共三节） 第一节 七选五（共5小题10分） Children start out as natural scientists, eager to look into the world around them. ___16___.There’s no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab equipment. You only have to share your children’s curiosity. Listen to their questions. I once visited a classroom of seven-year-olds to talk about science as a job. After my sharing, a boy raised his hand and asked me some questions, “Have you ever seen a grasshopper eat? When I try eating leaves like that, I get a stomachache. Why?”___17___ Give them time to think. Studies over the past 30 years have shown that, after a question, adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer. ____18____When adults increase their “wait time” to three seconds or more, children give more logical, complete and creative answers. ____19____ Once you have a child in a science discussion, don’t jump in with “That’s right” or “Very good”. These words work well when it comes to encouraging good behavior. But in talking about science, quick praise can signal that discussion is over. Instead, keep things going by saying, “That’s interesting”or “I’d never thought of it that way before,” or coming up with more questions or ideas. Show rather than tell. Real-life impressions of nature are far more impressive than any lesson children can learn from a book or a television program. Let children look at their fingertips through a magnifying glass (放大镜).____20____ A. Do not interrupt. B. Pay attention to your words. C. There is no time for a child to think. D. Helping them enjoy science can be easy. E. This began a set of questions that lasted nearly two hours. F. So in this way we don’t need to develop their interest in science. G. And they’ll understand why you want them to wash before dinner. 【答案】16. D 17. E 18. C 19. B 20. G 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了一些帮助孩子享受科学的建议。 【16题详解】 上文“Children start out as natural scientists, eager to look into the world around them.”（孩子们一开始是自然科学家，渴望观察周围的世界。）说明了孩子天生与科学之间的联系，再结合后文“There’s no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab equipment. You only have to share your children’s curiosity. ”（不需要很多科学术语或昂贵的实验室设备。你只需要分享你孩子的好奇心。）可知，后文提到了让孩子们对科学感兴趣不需要很多科学术语或昂贵的实验室设备，说明让孩子享受科学很容易，故D项“Helping them enjoy science can be easy.”（帮助他们享受科学很容易。）符合语境，故选D项。 【17题详解】 上文“I once visited a classroom of seven-year-olds to talk about science as a job. After my sharing, a boy raised his hand and asked me some questions, “Have you ever seen a grasshopper eat? When I try eating leaves like that, I get a stomachache. Why?””（我曾经访问过一个七岁孩子的教室，把科学作为一项工作来谈论。在我的分享之后，一个男孩举手问了我几个问题：“你见过蚱蜢吃东西吗？当我试着吃那样的叶子时，我胃痛。为什么？”）说明作者遇到一个男孩提问的情况，本句为本段最后一句，应承接上文说明男孩的问题引发的结果。E项“This began a set of questions that lasted nearly two hours.”（由此开始了一系列持续了近两个小时的问题。）符合语境，故选E项。 【18题详解】 上文“Studies over the past 30 years have shown that, after a question, adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer.”（过去30年的研究表明，在一个问题之后，成年人通常只等一秒钟或更短的时间就会说出答案。）说明成年人并没有留给孩子足够的思考时间。并结合下文“When adults increase their “wait time “to three seconds or more, children give more logical, complete and creative answers.”（当大人将“等待时间”增加到三秒或更长时间时，孩子们会给出更有逻辑、完整和创造性的答案。）说明延长等待时间，孩子可以给出更好的答案。C项“There is no time for a child to think.”（孩子没有时间思考。）构成上文的结果，并引出下文更好的做法。符合语境，故选C项。 【19题详解】 下文“Once you have a child in a science discussion, don’t jump in with “That’s right” or “Very good”. These words work well when it comes to encouraging good behavior. But in talking about science, quick praise can signal that discussion is over. Instead, keep things going by saying, “That’s interesting” or “I’d never thought of it that way before,” or coming up with more questions or ideas.”（一旦你让孩子参与到科学讨论中，不要直接说“那是对的”或“非常好”。当涉及到鼓励良好行为时，这些话很有效。但在谈论科学时，快速的赞美可能意味着讨论结束。相反，你应该继续说，“这很有趣”或“我以前从来没有这样想过”，或者提出更多的问题或想法。）说明本段的主旨在于用什么样的语言鼓励孩子参与科学讨论，B项“Pay attention to your words.”（注意你的语言。）可概括本段内容。故选B项。 【20题详解】 上文“Real-life impressions of nature are far more impressive than any lesson children can learn from a book or a television program. Let children look at their fingertips through a magnifying glass.”（现实生活中对自然的印象比孩子们从书本或电视节目中学到的任何课程都要深刻得多。让孩子们用放大镜观察自己的指尖。）提到了“让孩子们用放大镜观察自己的指尖”，说明要让孩子用观察的方式来理解做一些事情的原因，G项“And they’ll understand why you want them to wash before dinner.”（他们也会明白你为什么要他们在晚饭前洗手。）中they对应上文children，说明了让孩子们用放大镜观察自己的指尖，孩子们自然会明白餐前洗手的原因，符合语境，故选G项。 第二节 完形填空（共15小题）30分 I never planned on learning Chinese.

(选择符合中英文习惯的译文) A. 世界各地的霍乱威胁大幅减少。 B. 世界各地的霍乱威胁看到了一个大量的减少。 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查时态和句子结构。the threat of cholera“霍乱威胁”作主语，around the world“世界各地”做状语，saw“见证、目睹”作谓语， a substantial decrease“大幅减少”作宾语。再结合中文表达习惯。故翻译为：世界各地的霍乱威胁大幅减少。故选A。 52. 他所说的和他所做的跟我没关系。(选择符合中英文习惯的译文) A. What he says and does don’t concern me. B. What he says and does doesn’t concern me. 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查主谓一致。What he says and does表示的是复数概念，谓语动词用复数。A选项符合中英文习惯的译文。故选A项。 53. 有朋友在身边，罗伯特感到很欣慰。(选择符合中英文习惯的译文) A. Robert felt comforted to have friends around him. B. Robert felt comfortable to have friends around him. 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查形容词词义辨析。comforted“感到安慰、欣慰”，准确传达了原文的情感色彩；comfortable“感到舒适、自在”，与原文“欣慰”的情感不完全匹配。虽然语法正确，但语义有偏差。中文的“欣慰”强调因朋友陪伴而产生的心理安慰，而comfortable更侧重身体或环境的舒适感。故选A项。 54. 我希望我们能合作。(选择符合中英文习惯的译文) A. I hope that we can cooperate with each other. B. I hope that we can cooperate. 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查动词。在英语中，“cooperate” 已直接表示“相互合作”，若加上 with each other则显冗余， B更符合英语简洁的表达习惯。故选B项。 55. 他们坚决要求采取措施来解决这个急迫的问题。(选择符合中英文习惯的译文) A. Facing up to your problems is the best approach to solving the problem. B. Facing up to your problems is the best way to solving the problem. 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查动名词。way后接动词不定式作后置定语。 approach to doing sth做某事的方法。所以A选项符合中英文习惯的译文。故选A项。 第四部分写作 第一节：应用文写作 56. 假设你是李华，你的美国朋友Alex正在考虑就读国内大学还是来中国留学，请你从教育、安全、经济等方面考虑，为他写一封建议信。 要求：不少于100词。 Dear Alex, _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours sincerely, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Alex, I am so excited to hear that you are considering your further education options and that studying in China is on your radar.

Mr. Brown kindly ended Mary’s part of the presentation, even though she did clearly not finished. He also asked Mary to stay after class for a moment. “Mary. I know you’ re shy, but you worked hard on this project. I’d hate to see you give up on yourself.” Then Mr. Brown hesitated, before saying. “If I give you another chance until tomorrow, do you think you can find your courage?” Mary nodded, grateful for the chance. She went as quickly as she could to her next class. She kept her head down and hoped the school day would end soon. When she reached home that afternoon, she could see an inviting light coming from the kitchen windows. Mom was baking. Mom studied Mary’s face as she came into the kitchen. “What’s wrong, baby?” Tears shone in Mary’s brown eyes. She told Mom the whole story. Mom was silent for a moment. her hands still busy with the cake. “Why is it that you can talk to me about everything but you can’t talk to your class?” Mom asked and then said, “Let me show you something.” Mary followed Mom to her bedroom. There Mom showed her a book filled with newspaper clippings and pictures. In it there was a red ribbon (丝带) that said “First Place” and a picture of herself when she was very young, standing with her parents. “I won it for public speaking. When I started on the speech team I was quiet as a mouse, but I ended the year as the winner. It wasn’t easy at first — I wasn’t sure of myself at all. I worked hard, and mostly I faced my fears.

She imagined the scene where Mom had tried her best to overcome her fears and picked up the courage to deliver a fantastic speech to the audience. Realizing Mary’s anxiety, Mom reassured her and reached out her hand to tie the red ribbon onto Mary’s wrist with a smile. Restored and determined, Mary gritted (咬紧牙关) her teeth to find her courage. She stood in front of a mirror and practiced. “You can do it,” she told herself when drowsiness (昏昏欲睡) fell upon her. The next day Mary again walked to the front of the classroom to give her presentation. She nervously lowered her head and averted her gaze, feeling numb for a few seconds. But courage found its way back the moment she caught sight of the red ribbon on her wrist. Comforted and inspired, she took a deep breath, summoned up her courage, and said “Dear fellow students.” Mary cast a glance at Mr. Brown who was standing in the corner and smiling at her. A self-reassuring smile spread across Mary’s face. She knew for sure that she had now found her courage. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了玛丽初次向同学作报告时紧张胆怯，表达失败，老师鼓励再给她一次机会。回家后，妈妈了解了情况，用自己上学时代的成功演讲经历鼓励她。最终玛丽成功完成报告的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“听了妈妈的话，玛丽凝视着那条珍贵的红丝带。”可知，第一段可描妈妈的成功激励着玛丽下定决心，发奋练习。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天，玛丽又走到教室前面做报告。”可知，第二段可描写玛丽找回了勇气，成功做报告。 2.续写线索：自信——下定决心——发奋练习——找回勇气——表达成功——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①克服：overcome/get over ②练习：practice/exercise ③看见：catch sight of/see 情绪类 ①焦虑：anxiety/worry ②受到鼓舞的：inspired/encouraged 【点睛】 [高分句型1] She imagined the scene where Mom had tried her best to overcome her fears and picked up the courage to deliver a fantastic speech to the audience.
