Initially, he faced legal challenges from LEGO regarding the use of its products in his art. However, over time, he gained recognition and became a “LEGO Certified Professional”, which allows him to create and display his work with the company’s support. This title is given to select individuals who demonstrate exceptional skill in working with LEGO and contribute to the company positively. Sawaya’s unique approach to art has helped bridge the gap between commercial products and creative expression. Sawaya’s journey began in a rather unconventional way. Originally a corporate lawyer, he found himself increasingly drawn to the world of art. The turning point came when he decided to leave his stable job and pursue his passion for creating with LEGO. His first major exhibition, “The Art of the Brick”, displayed his innovative sculptures and earned widespread praise. Visitors were amazed to see iconic artworks, such as Van Gogh’s Starry Night and Michelangelo’s Dovid, reimagined entirely with LEGO bricks. What sets Sawaya apart is not just his technical skill, but also his ability to express deep emotions through playful materials. Each piece tells a story, inviting viewers to engage with their inner child while thinking about the themes of creativity and imagination. His work challenges traditional concepts of art, demonstrating that even the most ordinary items can be turned into extraordinary expressions of human experience. In addition to his exhibitions, Sawaya has also conducted workshops and educational programs, inspiring the next generation of artists. He believes that creativity should be accessible to everyone and encourages people to explore their artistic potential using simple materials. Through his devotion and passion, Nathan Sawaya has not only carved out a unique space in the art world but has also encouraged a greater appreciation of the creative possibilities found in LEGO. 4. What does LEGO Certified Professional mean to Sawaya? A. It expands his name recognition. B. It legalizes his use of LEGO. C. It boosts his artistic competence. D. It finances his LEGO creation. 5. Which can best describe Sawaya’s first major exhibition? A. Artistic and practical. B. Professional and vivid. C. Novel and impressive. D. Realistic and fashionable. 6. How does Sawaya’s work challenge traditional views of art? A. By transforming ordinary objects into art. B. By featuring engagement and imagination. C. By taking full advantage of playful materials. D. By combining inner thought with technology. 7. What can we learn from Sawaya’s example? A. Follow your passion, and success will follow. B. Share your knowledge, and wisdom will grow. C. Achievement is guaranteed for those with talent. D. Legal recognition is essential for artistic freedom. C A battle broke out at the weekend over a hedge (树篱) in Lincolnshire. The hedge, near the town of Winterton, was covered in netting by Partner Construction, which has applied for planning permission to build 40 homes on the site. This is standard practice, the developer said, in order to prevent birds from nesting in a habitat that might be damaged if building work begins later in the year. However, a group of local people opposed to the development produced a video showing birds trapped beneath the nets. Chris Packham shared the video on Twitter. Packham said the nets showed disregard of how to look after the countryside, and said, if he were there, he would “tear those nets”. The Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 makes it illegal to intentionally “take, damage or destroy” the nest of any wild bird while it is in use or being built. In theory, this even bans people from cutting away some of the branches of their fruit trees if doing so harms a nest that they know is there. Any tree or hedge becomes a protected site the moment a bird settles in it, which is often the case between February and August—potentially shutting down an entire construction site for the busy half of the year. To address the problem, conservationists and builders agree to find a middle ground. Netting an empty tree or a bush in winter is certainly better than making the birds look for a new site in the middle of the reproduction season. “Netting is probably the lowest-impact option if a habitat has to be removed during the reproduction season,” a spokesman for Partner Construction said. “We appointed qualified and experienced ecologists to carry out the work on our behalf. They have convinced us and provided photographic evidence that there were no birds in the hedge after it was netted.” 8. What is the standard practice according to paragraph 1? A. Protecting birds with hedges. B. Applying for planning permission. C. Removing hedges from the site. D. Netting permitted construction sites. 9. What does the underlined word “disregard” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Evidence. B. Prospect. C. Ignorance. D. Inefficiency. 10. What do we know about the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981? A. It protects wild birds’ nests. B. It permits proper construction. C. It guides tree cutting practice. D. It prioritizes bird nesting seasons. 11. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A. The settlement of the conflict. B. The influence of the battle. C. The process of making a deal. D. The significance of netting a hedge. D Surgeons often emphasize that in the event of a heart attack, time is crucial for saving heart muscle. The heart relies on a continuous supply of oxygen delivered by the heart’s blood vessels (血管). When these vessels become blocked, the oxygen supply stops, and the heart's muscle cells begin to die within minutes. Survivors of heart attacks frequently suffer from permanent heart failure, with a worrying statistic showing that 50% of them may not survive beyond five years. “Eventually, their hearts become so weak that they can't sustain sufficient blood flow, and they ultimately stop,” explains Sanjay Sinha, a cardiologist at Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge. However, within the next five years, there could be a new alternative — to grow live, beating “heart patches” (补丁). Sinha, along with a team of biologists at the University of Cambridge’s Stem Cell Institute, is working on this innovative approach. These heart patches are tiny, beating pieces of heart muscle. They are grown in lab dishes over a month. The process begins by taking blood cells and reprogramming them into a specific type of stem cell capable of developing into any cell type within the human body. Sinha is currently preparing to test these patches, first in mice and then in pigs. If successful, he hopes to set up a human trial within five years. In the United States, scientists from Stanford University are also working on creating heart patches. They envision a future procedure where ultrasound and MRI (超声波和核磁共振) scans are used to identify damaged sections. Based on the shape of the section, a custom heart patch would be 3D printed to fit perfectly. Surgeons would then open the chest area and attach the patch directly to the heart. The major challenge with this method is establishing “electrical connectivity” between the new patch and the existing heart to ensure they beat in harmony. Additionally, the cost of developing and using these patches is significant, which could impact accessibility. However, if these challenges can be overcome, Sinha is optimistic that heart patches could transform the lives of millions worldwide. 12. What is the function of paragraph I? A. To reveal a finding. B. To offer a solution. C. To present a problem. D. To outline a research. 13. What is the first step in growing heart patches? A. Launching a clinical trial in humans. B. Testing the heart patches on animals. C. Culturing heart patches in lab dishes. D. Generating stem cells from blood cells. 14. What is the purpose of using ultrasound and MRI scans? A. To create a 3D model of the heart. B. To locate damaged areas in the heart. C. To design the shape of the custom heart. D. To provide real-time guidance for operations. 15. What is the major challenge in employing heart patches? A. Promoting global accessibility. B. Reducing production costs. C. Securing functional integration. D. Finding a suitable material. 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。 As an enthusiastic reader, I’ve always believed that the key to understanding the world lies in the pages of a book. ___16___ They introduce us to characters who feel as real as the people around us.

It was a comfortable little corner near the window, where the sunlight would stream in and warm the desk. I loved this spot because it gave me a sense of routine and comfort during the busy college life. One day, as I settled into my usual seat, I noticed a new face sitting next to me. She was a foreign exchange student named Mia, who had just arrived from Italy. Her English was basic, and the most complex sentence I had heard her say was, “I love this sunny weather!” Despite the language barrier, Mia always greeted me with a bright smile and a cheerful “Morning, Alex!” every day. Mia had a habit of spreading her belongings across my desk space. Her notebooks, snacks, and even her colourful scarf would somehow find their way onto my side. Each time I walked into class, Mia would quickly realize her mistake, flash an apologetic smile, and say, “Oh, Alex! Sorry, sorry!” while hurriedly clearing my space. She would then give a nod and ask, “Ready for class, yeah?” Initially, I found this routine mildly annoying. I thought to myself, “Why can’t she keep her things on her side? Doesn’t she know I sit here every day?” The last thing I wanted was to deal with a guy who barely spoke my language at eight in the morning. Just get your stuff off my desk! One particularly busy morning, I arrived a few minutes late to class. As I stood outside the classroom, finishing a quick phone call, I noticed through the window that my desk was, as usual, occupied by Mia’s things. However, before I could enter, another student, also running late, walked into the room and headed straight for my seat. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 I watched as Mia’s eyes followed the newcomer. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Then I realized Mia didn’t mean to inconvenience me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 第十届湖北省高三（4月）调研模拟考试 英语试卷 2025. 4 全卷共12页，满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 ★祝考试顺利★ 注意事项： 1. 答题前，先将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在试卷和答题卡上，并将准考证号条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2. 选择题的作答：每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 3. 非选择题的作答：用黑色签字笔直接答在答题卡上对应的答题区域内。写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 4. 考试结束后，请将本试卷和答题卡一并上交。 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?

However, over time, he gained recognition and became a “LEGO Certified Professional”, which allows him to create and display his work with the company’s support.(最初，他面临着来自乐高的法律挑战，因为他在自己的艺术作品中使用了乐高的产品。然而，随着时间的推移，他获得了认可，成为了“乐高认证专家”，这使他能够在公司的支持下创作和展示他的作品)”可推知，乐高专业认证对Sawaya来说意味着他使用乐高玩具是合法的。故选B项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“His first major exhibition, “The Art of the Brick”, displayed his innovative sculptures and earned widespread praise. Visitors were amazed to see iconic artworks, such as Van Gogh’s Starry Night and Michelangelo’s Dovid, reimagined entirely with LEGO bricks.(他的第一个大型展览“砖的艺术”展示了他的创新雕塑，赢得了广泛的赞誉。游客们惊讶地看到了梵高的《星空》和米开朗基罗的《大卫》等标志性艺术品，这些艺术品完全是用乐高积木重新设计的)”可推知，Sawaya的第一次大型展览用乐高积木重新设计了梵高的《星空》和米开朗基罗的《大卫》，所以是新颖而令人印象深刻。故选C项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“His work challenges traditional concepts of art, demonstrating that even the most ordinary items can be turned into extraordinary expressions of human experience.(他的作品挑战了传统的艺术观念，表明即使是最普通的物品也可以变成人类体验的非凡表达)”可知，Sawaya通过把普通物品变成艺术品，挑战了传统的艺术观念。故选A项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“In addition to his exhibitions, Sawaya has also conducted workshops and educational programs, inspiring the next generation of artists. He believes that creativity should be accessible to everyone and encourages people to explore their artistic potential using simple materials. Through his devotion and passion, Nathan Sawaya has not only carved out a unique space in the art world but has also encouraged a greater appreciation for the creative possibilities found in LEGO.(除了他的展览，Sawaya还举办研讨会和教育项目，激励下一代艺术家。他认为每个人都应该有创造力，并鼓励人们使用简单的材料探索自己的艺术潜力。通过他的奉献和热情，Nathan Sawaya不仅在艺术界开辟了一个独特的空间，而且还鼓励人们更好地欣赏乐高中发现的创造性可能性)”可推知，我们能从Sawaya的例子中学到追随你的热情，成功就会随之而来。故选A项。 C A battle broke out at the weekend over a hedge (树篱) in Lincolnshire. The hedge, near the town of Winterton, was covered in netting by Partner Construction, which has applied for planning permission to build 40 homes on the site. This is standard practice, the developer said, in order to prevent birds from nesting in a habitat that might be damaged if building work begins later in the year. However, a group of local people opposed to the development produced a video showing birds trapped beneath the nets. Chris Packham shared the video on Twitter. Packham said the nets showed disregard of how to look after the countryside, and said, if he were there, he would “tear those nets”. The Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 makes it illegal to intentionally “take, damage or destroy” the nest of any wild bird while it is in use or being built. In theory, this even bans people from cutting away some of the branches of their fruit trees if doing so harms a nest that they know is there. Any tree or hedge becomes a protected site the moment a bird settles in it, which is often the case between February and August—potentially shutting down an entire construction site for the busy half of the year. To address the problem, conservationists and builders agree to find a middle ground. Netting an empty tree or a bush in winter is certainly better than making the birds look for a new site in the middle of the reproduction season. “Netting is probably the lowest-impact option if a habitat has to be removed during the reproduction season,” a spokesman for Partner Construction said. “We appointed qualified and experienced ecologists to carry out the work on our behalf. They have convinced us and provided photographic evidence that there were no birds in the hedge after it was netted.” 8. What is the standard practice according to paragraph 1? A. Protecting birds with hedges. B. Applying for planning permission. C Removing hedges from the site. D. Netting permitted construction sites. 9. What does the underlined word “disregard” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Evidence. B. Prospect. C. Ignorance. D. Inefficiency. 10. What do we know about the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981? A. It protects wild birds’ nests. B. It permits proper construction. C. It guides tree cutting practice. D. It prioritizes bird nesting seasons. 11. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A. The settlement of the conflict. B. The influence of the battle. C. The process of making a deal. D. The significance of netting a hedge. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是新闻报道。报道了在林肯郡温特顿镇附近因树篱覆盖防护网而引发的一场争议。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“A battle broke out at the weekend over a hedge in Lincolnshire. The hedge, near the town of Winterton, was covered in netting by Partner Construction, which has applied for planning permission to build 40 homes on the site. This is standard practice, the developer said, in order to prevent birds from nesting in a habitat that might be damaged if building work begins later in the year.(周末，林肯郡的一处树篱引发了一场争端。这处树篱位于温特顿镇附近，被Partner Construction公司用网罩了起来，该公司已申请在这块土地上建造40栋住宅的规划许可。开发商表示，这是标准做法，目的是防止鸟类在可能因年底开工的建筑作业而遭到破坏的栖息地筑巢)”可知，标准做法是用网罩住树篱等使得建筑工地得以顺利施工。故选D项。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据前文“However, a group of local people opposed to the development produced a video showing birds trapped beneath the nets.(然而，一群反对开发的当地人制作了一段视频，展示了被困在网下的鸟类)”可知，开发商只是罩上了网，但是并不是出于保护鸟类的目的，显示了他们对对如何保护乡村的漠视，推知disregard应是“漠视”之意，和C项意思相机。故选C项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“The Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 makes it illegal to intentionally “take, damage or destroy” the nest of any wild bird while it is in use or being built. In theory, this even bans people from cutting away some of the branches of their fruit trees if doing so harms a nest that they know is there.(1981年的《野生动物和乡村法》规定，故意“拿走、破坏或摧毁”任何野生鸟类正在使用或建造的巢穴是非法的。理论上，这甚至禁止人们砍掉果树的一些树枝，如果这样做会伤害到他们知道在那里的鸟巢)”可知，《1981年野生动物和乡村法》的核心是保护野生鸟巢。故选A项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“To address the problem, conservationists and builders agree to find a middle ground. Netting an empty tree or a bush in winter is certainly better than making the birds look for a new site in the middle of the reproduction season. “Netting is probably the lowest-impact option if a habitat has to be removed during the reproduction season,” a spokesman for Partner Construction said. “We appointed qualified and experienced ecologists to carry out the work on our behalf. They have convinced us and provided photographic evidence that there were no birds in the hedge after it was netted.”(为了解决这个问题，环保主义者和建筑商同意找到一个中间立场。在冬天在一棵空树或一丛灌木上设置网，当然比在繁殖季节中期让鸟儿寻找新的栖息地要好。Partner Construction的一位发言人说：“如果在繁殖季节必须拆除栖息地，设置网可能是影响最小的选择。”“我们任命了有资质、有经验的生态学家代表我们开展工作。他们已经说服了我们，并提供了照片证据，证明篱笆被网住后没有鸟在里面。”)”可知，本段主要讲述了冲突的解决办法。故选A项。 D Surgeons often emphasize that in the event of a heart attack, time is crucial for saving heart muscle. The heart relies on a continuous supply of oxygen delivered by the heart’s blood vessels (血管). When these vessels become blocked, the oxygen supply stops, and the heart's muscle cells begin to die within minutes. Survivors of heart attacks frequently suffer from permanent heart failure, with a worrying statistic showing that 50% of them may not survive beyond five years. “Eventually, their hearts become so weak that they can't sustain sufficient blood flow, and they ultimately stop,” explains Sanjay Sinha, a cardiologist at Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge. However, within the next five years, there could be a new alternative — to grow live, beating “heart patches” (补丁). Sinha, along with a team of biologists at the University of Cambridge’s Stem Cell Institute, is working on this innovative approach. These heart patches are tiny, beating pieces of heart muscle. They are grown in lab dishes over a month. The process begins by taking blood cells and reprogramming them into a specific type of stem cell capable of developing into any cell type within the human body. Sinha is currently preparing to test these patches, first in mice and then in pigs. If successful, he hopes to set up a human trial within five years. In the United States, scientists from Stanford University are also working on creating heart patches. They envision a future procedure where ultrasound and MRI (超声波和核磁共振) scans are used to identify damaged sections. Based on the shape of the section, a custom heart patch would be 3D printed to fit perfectly. Surgeons would then open the chest area and attach the patch directly to the heart. The major challenge with this method is establishing “electrical connectivity” between the new patch and the existing heart to ensure they beat in harmony. Additionally, the cost of developing and using these patches is significant, which could impact accessibility. However, if these challenges can be overcome, Sinha is optimistic that heart patches could transform the lives of millions worldwide. 12. What is the function of paragraph I? A. To reveal a finding. B. To offer a solution. C. To present a problem. D. To outline a research. 13. What is the first step in growing heart patches? A. Launching a clinical trial in humans. B. Testing the heart patches on animals. C. Culturing heart patches in lab dishes. D. Generating stem cells from blood cells. 14. What is the purpose of using ultrasound and MRI scans? A. To create a 3D model of the heart. B. To locate damaged areas in the heart. C. To design the shape of the custom heart. D. To provide real-time guidance for operations. 15. What is the major challenge in employing heart patches? A. Promoting global accessibility. B. Reducing production costs. C. Securing functional integration. D. Finding a suitable material. 【答案】12 C 13. D 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了关于治疗心脏病的一种新方法——培育“心脏补丁”的研究进展。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“ Survivors of heart attacks frequently suffer from permanent heart failure, with a worrying statistic showing that 50% of them may not survive beyond five years. “Eventually, their hearts become so weak that they can't sustain sufficient blood flow, and they ultimately stop,” explains Sanjay Sinha, a cardiologist at Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge.(心脏病发作的幸存者经常遭受永久性心力衰竭，一项令人担忧的统计数据显示，其中50%的人可能活不过5年。剑桥阿登布鲁克医院的心脏病专家桑杰·辛哈解释说：“最终，他们的心脏变得非常虚弱，无法维持足够的血液流动，最终停止跳动。”)”可知，本段通过数据揭示了当前心脏病治疗后的严峻问题，为后文介绍“心脏补丁”解决方案做铺垫。故选C项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The process begins by taking blood cells and reprogramming them into a specific type of stem cell capable of developing into any cell type within the human body.(这个过程首先是将血液细胞重新编程为一种特定类型的干细胞，这种干细胞能够在人体内发育成任何类型的细胞)”可知，培育心脏补丁的第一步是从血细胞中生成干细胞。故选D项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“They envision a future procedure where ultrasound and MRI (超声波和核磁共振) scans are used to identify damaged sections.(他们设想了一种未来的程序，利用超声波和核磁共振扫描来识别受损部位)”可知，使用超声波和核磁共振扫描的目的是定位心脏受损部位。故选B项。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“The major challenge with this method is establishing “electrical connectivity” between the new patch and the existing heart to ensure they beat in harmony.(这种方法的主要挑战是在新的贴片和现有心脏之间建立“电连接”，以确保它们和谐地跳动)”可知，使用心脏贴片的主要挑战是确保补丁与原有心脏的电信号同步，即功能整合。故选C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。 As an enthusiastic reader, I’ve always believed that the key to understanding the world lies in the pages of a book. ___16___ They introduce us to characters who feel as real as the people around us.

It was a comfortable little corner near the window, where the sunlight would stream in and warm the desk. I loved this spot because it gave me a sense of routine and comfort during the busy college life. One day, as I settled into my usual seat, I noticed a new face sitting next to me. She was a foreign exchange student named Mia, who had just arrived from Italy. Her English was basic, and the most complex sentence I had heard her say was, “I love this sunny weather!” Despite the language barrier, Mia always greeted me with a bright smile and a cheerful “Morning, Alex!” every day. Mia had a habit of spreading her belongings across my desk space. Her notebooks, snacks, and even her colourful scarf would somehow find their way onto my side. Each time I walked into class, Mia would quickly realize her mistake, flash an apologetic smile, and say, “Oh, Alex! Sorry, sorry!” while hurriedly clearing my space. She would then give a nod and ask, “Ready for class, yeah?” Initially, I found this routine mildly annoying. I thought to myself, “Why can’t she keep her things on her side? Doesn’t she know I sit here every day?” The last thing I wanted was to deal with a guy who barely spoke my language at eight in the morning. Just get your stuff off my desk! One particularly busy morning, I arrived a few minutes late to class. As I stood outside the classroom, finishing a quick phone call, I noticed through the window that my desk was, as usual, occupied by Mia’s things. However, before I could enter, another student, also running late, walked into the room and headed straight for my seat. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 I watched as Mia’s eyes followed the newcomer. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Then I realized Mia didn’t mean to inconvenience me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 I watched as Mia’s eyes followed the newcomer. Her smile faded instantly, and she sprang into action. “No, no! This seat for Alex!” she exclaimed in broken English, waving her hands frantically. The confused student hesitated, but Mia had already grabbed her colorful scarf from the chair and begun clearing textbooks with unusual urgency. Her cheeks flushed pink as she patted the newly emptied space, looking toward the doorway where I stood. “Alex’s place,” she repeated firmly, her determined tone silencing the classroom chatter. I froze, phone still pressed to my ear, suddenly understanding why my corner always stayed vacant despite the crowded lectures. Then I realized Mia didn’t mean to inconvenience me. Those daily “invasions” were her clumsy attempts to guard my cherished spot. Her limited English couldn’t explain this silent guardianship, so she resorted to marking territory like a protective friend. My throat tightened remembering how I’d rolled eyes at her scattered belongings - the very items she now clutched awkwardly in her lap to preserve my routine. When our gazes met through the window, her relieved smile outshone the morning sunbeam on my desk. From that day, I started arriving early - not for the seat, but to help Mia arrange her things properly on our shared desk, bridging the language gap with patience I should have shown sooner. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了大学生Alex是一个有着固定座位强迫症的经济学系新生，作为靠窗阳光座位的长期占有者，他每天享受着阳光洒在课桌上的规律感，直到意大利交换生Mia的出现打破这种宁静，她总是不自觉地把笔记本、零食甚至彩色围巾侵占到他的桌面空间。让Alex感到烦躁，直到某个匆忙的早晨，Alex隔着窗户看见另一位迟到同学正要占据那个被Mia物品“标记”的座位时，Alex的改变了对Mia的感觉。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我看着Mia的眼睛盯着新来的人。”可知，第一段可描写Mia努力守护Alex座位的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“然后我意识到Mia并不是有意给我带来不便。”可知，第二段可描写Alex明白了误会，并和Mia成为朋友。 2. 续写线索：解释有人——守护座位——明白误会——成为朋友 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①大喊：exclaim/shout ②抓住：grab/snatch ③清理：clear/remove 情绪类 ①困惑的：confused/bewildered ②感到宽慰的：relieved/comforted 【点睛】[高分句型1]I froze, phone still pressed to my ear, suddenly understanding why my corner always stayed vacant despite the crowded lectures.(运用了why引导的宾语从句) [高分句型2]When our gazes met through the window, her relieved smile outshone the morning sunbeam on my desk.(运用了when引导的时间状语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
