The Serengeti Desert is in Tanzania and Kenya, Africa. It contains thousands of kilometers of dry grasslands and many rare kinds of animals. Edinburgh’s Old Town is in the capital city of Scotland. It has many old buildings and streets. There are very few new buildings in Edinburgh’s Old Town. The Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve is near Mexico City in Mexico. It has beautiful flowers and forests. It is also the home of millions of butterflies in the winter. These three places are very different. But they are all under special protection by UNESCO (联合国教科文组织). They are World Heritage Sites. The story of World Heritage Sites begins more than 3,000 years ago. At that time, the great king of Egypt built many temples. But after thousands of years, sand covered them. Stories tell of a young boy named Abu Simbel who found the temples. One day, Abu Simbel saw something under the sand. Soon, the ancient temples of Ramses Ⅱwere officially rediscovered. But they were not safe. The government of Egypt planned to build a dam on the Nile River. It would create a large lake, which would cover the temples in water. Many people did not want the temples destroyed. UNESCO agreed and raised 40 million dollars from around the world to save the temples. From 1964 to 1968, engineers took the temples apart in many pieces and rebuilt them hundreds of meters back from the Nile River. Today, they are called the Abu Simbel Temples, in memory of the young boy who first found them. The effort to save the Abu Simbel Temples was a success. So in 1972, UNESCO formed the World Heritage Committee, which protects places on the earth that are of great cultural or natural value. Any country in the world can ask for protection from UNESCO. The countries send a list of places to the World Heritage Committee. Once a year, the World Heritage Committee meets and votes on which places to protect. When they choose a place, it officially becomes a World Heritage Site. 1. What’s special about Edinburgh’s Old Town? A. It has no new buildings. B. It’s a World Heritage Site. C. It’s in the capital city of Scotland. D. It has the oldest streets in the world. 2. The young boy Abu Simbel . A. grew up to be a great engineer B. took part in building the temples C. lived in Egypt about 3,000 years ago D. was the first to discover the hidden temples 3. The last paragraph mainly deals with . A. how a World Heritage Site is chosen B. why the World Heritage Committee was formed C. how often the World Heritage Committee works D. why countries ask for protection from UNESCO B Lauren and Andrew Gruel, the husband-and-wife owners of a seafood restaurant — Calico Fish House — are used to thinking local. About an hour’s drive south of the Palisades, where the Eaton Fires are burning in Los Angeles, the Gruels have set up their small business to double as a wildfire relief center. At least 10 people have died in the fires, and authorities say the death toll is likely to rise. Thousands of structures have burned, with countless neighborhood blocks reduced to ash. About180, 000 people have had to evacuate while more than double that number have been under evacuation warnings, according to the LA County Sheriff’s Department (CSD). Since the owners put the word out on social media that they would house donations for people affected by the fires, a seemingly endless stream of volunteers has shown up to the restaurant ready to help. Some come armed with supplies, others are stopping by with their trucks and trailers to transport the aid to LA. Boxes and boxes of clothing, articles for daily use, cat food, fresh fruit and cases of water — lined the outside of the restaurant on Thursday night, waiting to be hauled away (拖走). Almost as quickly as Calico loads up one truck, the piles of aid are replenished (补充) with more donations from the community. Most of the help has come from Huntington Beach residents, and Andrew Gruel together with volunteer residents is spending Friday at Calico cooking up beef and eggs to feed first responders and volunteers in Los Angeles. People from all over the country also have chipped in. Many have been using Amazon and Wal-Mart to ship their donated purchases to the restaurant. Calico is also offering a free meal to people affected by the fires. As of Thursday night, more than 50 groups of people had dropped in to take the owners up on the offer. 4. What is the second paragraph mainly about? A. The cause of the fires. B. The destruction of the fires. C. The efforts of the residents. D. The measures of the department. 5. Why did the owners put out a call to action on the Internet? A. To enlarge their small business. B. To draw attention to their restaurant. C. To support the people influenced by fires. D. To respond to the warnings from the LA CSD. 6. What has Calico been doing? A. Transporting supplies. B. Raising money for volunteers. C. Offering meals at a discount price. D. Advertising seafood on social media. 7. Which of the following best describes the Gruels? A. Humble. B. Creative. C. Warm-hearted. D. Hard-working. C Actually we feel differently every time we read the same poem. The first time you start to read a poem, you must relax and read through it without concentrating on its meaning. Imagine you are meeting a person for the first time. You will just observe him and listen to his voice, as well as watch his shapes or movements, but you have not yet known what he is all about. Likewise, you may enjoy the sound, rhythms, or wording, and form some first impressions about a poem. On your second reading, you should concentrate more on the general meaning of the poem. This time, you will want to compare your feelings about the poem by now with how you felt before. Are they the same? What is different and why? Your third reading will focus more on details: the words, phrases, or images. Looking up any unfamiliar words in a dictionary so that you can gain a more accurate understanding. Using the example given above about meeting someone, his image will change gradually and slightly as you meet and learn more about him. Therefore, in your additional readings, it is a good idea to compare your understanding each time with the understanding before. A helpful approach to further understanding a poem is to summarize it in your own words. Compare your version of understanding with those of others reading the same poem, and listen to how they form such opinions. Remember, however, that there is no exact or right meaning for a poem, as most poets have admitted they themselves are not exactly sure what they meant when writing certain lines or phrases; they have even been heard to say on occasion that sometimes words just seem to “drop from heaven” and land on the page. That is what awakening the imagination is all about. If you are lucky, and if you practice enough, magical things may happen when you write and you may be able to produce a beautiful poem or other work of art yourself. 8. Why does the author give the example of “meeting a person”? A. To make his point easier to understand. B. To activate reader’s interest in reading poems. C. To support his argument about reading poems. D. To advise poem readers to be relaxed. 9. What will you gain from the third reading of a poem ? A. General meaning. B. Deeper meaning. C. Rhythm beauty. D. Poetic structure. 10. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 4 refer to ? A. Poets themselves don’t understand their poems. B. Writing a summary helps understand a poem. C. Beautiful poems drop from heaven occasionally. D. Poetic meanings are open to different explanations. 11. What can we conclude from the last paragraph ? A. Inspiration and hard work help create great poems. B. Practice and patience make a man perfect. C. Poetry is an expression of one’s will in words. D. Luck belongs to those who give their very best D A couple in their 60s has travelled 12,000 miles across 16 countries from Britain to China — riding their bikes the entire way. Grandparents Peter and Chris stepped on the long journey after deciding to ''do something a bit different''. They travelled across cities, deserts, mountains and everything in between across Europe, the Middle East and the East Asia. The married couple of 37 years enjoyed themselves with delicious local food and spent most nights inside a tiny tent put up wherever they could find shelter. Peter, 66, said the moment they finally had a look at the famous Great Wall after a year and a half of cycling 30 miles a day was ''really exciting''. At the end of their journey, the special pair didn’t fly home but instead choose to book a cabin inside a 400m-long container ship. The final part was a three-week voyage from Singapore across the Indian Ocean and into the Mediterranean Sea before arriving at Southampton. ''You never know what the day is going to bring. All you know is that you are going to get on your bike and cycle. Every day is an adventure and every day is new. Overall, the experience is absolutely unbelievable, '' Peter said. Peter and Chris initially set out to cycle from Britain in January 2017 but were forced home. They had cycled all the way to Hungary when Peter slipped on tiles and broke his leg. After even nonths of recovery, the couple set out again in Britain. They finally arrived in China in November 2018. Peter and Chris agreed that the best part of the entire trip was coming across the kinhood of strangers along the way, many of whom invited the couple for food and drink. Chris, 64, said ''It was a wonderful experience, particularly wonderful because of the amazing people we met along the way. '' 12. What’s the couple's purpose of taking the long journey? A. To try something new. B. To break the world record. C. To go across 16 countries by bike. D. To celebrate their 37-year marriage. 13. How did the couple go back to their home after the trip to China?

A widespread and harmful misunderstanding is that engaging in hobbies mirrors a lack of self-discipline. ____16____ In fact, hobbies can provide essential balance in our lives and enhance overall well-being. The benefits you obtain will depend on your hobby-taking up jogging, for instance, will benefit your cardiovascular (心血管的) health. The point is that nearly all hobbies can provide measurable positive health benefits. If we regularly spend time on hobbies, we usually enjoy a higher level of fitness. ____17____. A 2023 comprehensive analysis of multiple studies found strong evidence that engaging in leisure activities can improve health by protecting against heart disease and age-related problems. But another of the researchers’ findings is perhaps the most striking: the strong relationship between doing leisure activities and increased longevity (长寿). ____18____ It found that older adults have a 19% lower risk of disease-related death when they engage in regular leisure activities. ____19____ They are vital to sustaining our mental health. People who made a conscious effort each day to spend time doing hobbies (no matter what they were) showed an average boost of 8% in well-being and a 10% drop in stress and anxiety, according to a 2023 study published in the Journal of Personality. “In general, humans need meaning, something that gives them a sense of purpose. ____20____” says Dr Hafeez, who has led several massive studies on hobbies. “Engaging in what you enjoy greatly enhances your well-being.” With all these visible benefits of hobbies, why not just make time for activities that bring you joy and fulfillment every day? A. The science backs this up. B. Hobbies make us happier. C. You gain a lot from hobbies. D. Nothing could be further from the truth. E. The more you engage in hobbies, the longer you will live. F. A different study conducted last year confirmed the impact. G. And being able to pursue your passion really contributes to that. 第三部分 语言知识运用（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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 The first daigou, meaning someone who makes purchases on another’s behalf, were Chinese students studying abroad, who carried ___21___ products home on behalf of family and friends.

One such chain, AuMake, recently listed on the Australian Securities Exchange. Its ___28___ sales staff can arrange for a purchase to be posted to China as soon as it has been rung up (收款记账). The ___29___ for the customers is simple: the products daigou post are guaranteed to be genuine. Ever since Chinese firms were found to have been selling contaminated (污染过的) milk power in 2008, many anxious Chinese parents have turned to foreign brands. But websites selling foreign goods are riddled with ___30___, while Chinese shops charge a fortune for the real thing. The odd sales channel works for companies, too. Daigou allow young Australian firms to build their brands in China much more cheaply and easily than if they tried to ___31___ their products directly, argues Keong Chan, the chairman of AuMake. A firm called the a2 Milk Company doubled its profit in the year to June thanks to soaring Chinese ___32___.

This year, however, her parents announced a new rule: no phones for the entire week. “But my friends will be expecting updates about the trip” Kathy complained. Kathy’s mom gave her a serious look. Unwillingly, Kathy handed her phone over and her mom locked it away. The drive to the beach house took most of the day. As they turned off the highway onto countryback roads, the clouds darkened. Rain started to pour. “Even more beautiful in the rain,” her mother said. “What do you think, Kathy?” Kathy glared at her mom. “Beautiful,” she muttered. That night after dinner, Kathy wandered into the kitchen, where her father was washing dishes. She gave her father a loving look and said in her sweetest voice, “Couldn’t I have my phone back, just for one second? Just so I can tell everyone what an amazing time I’m having?” “Can’t,” he said. “It’s not here. Remember?” Kathy was very annoyed. Having nothing better to do, she examined the dusty bookcase in the living room. The books looked as dull as the weather. On the top shelf, however, she spotted a puzzle. She took it, emptied the pieces on the table, and began to sort them. After what seemed like a few minutes, she looked up. It was past ten o'clock. She had been working for almost two hours! She yawned. The puzzle was less than half done, but she was exhausted. So, she went to bed. 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 Paragraph 1: After a quick breakfast, Kathy headed to the beach. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Appreciating the finished puzzle she realized she hadn’t thought of her cellphone for hours. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 合江县马街中学高2023级高二下期期中检测 英语试题 第I卷（选择题，共95分） 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题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。 1．What is the probable relationship between the speakers?

About an hour’s drive south of the Palisades, where the Eaton Fires are burning in Los Angeles, the Gruels have set up their small business to double as a wildfire relief center. At least 10 people have died in the fires, and authorities say the death toll is likely to rise. Thousands of structures have burned, with countless neighborhood blocks reduced to ash. About180, 000 people have had to evacuate while more than double that number have been under evacuation warnings, according to the LA County Sheriff’s Department (CSD). Since the owners put the word out on social media that they would house donations for people affected by the fires, a seemingly endless stream of volunteers has shown up to the restaurant ready to help. Some come armed with supplies, others are stopping by with their trucks and trailers to transport the aid to LA. Boxes and boxes of clothing, articles for daily use, cat food, fresh fruit and cases of water — lined the outside of the restaurant on Thursday night, waiting to be hauled away (拖走). Almost as quickly as Calico loads up one truck, the piles of aid are replenished (补充) with more donations from the community. Most of the help has come from Huntington Beach residents, and Andrew Gruel together with volunteer residents is spending Friday at Calico cooking up beef and eggs to feed first responders and volunteers in Los Angeles. People from all over the country also have chipped in. Many have been using Amazon and Wal-Mart to ship their donated purchases to the restaurant. Calico is also offering a free meal to people affected by the fires. As of Thursday night, more than 50 groups of people had dropped in to take the owners up on the offer. 4.

Why did the owners put out a call to action on the Internet? A. To enlarge their small business. B. To draw attention to their restaurant. C. To support the people influenced by fires. D. To respond to the warnings from the LA CSD. 6. What has Calico been doing? A. Transporting supplies. B. Raising money for volunteers. C. Offering meals at a discount price. D.

Thousands of structures have burned, with countless neighborhood blocks reduced to ash. About180, 000 people have had to evacuate while more than double that number have been under evacuation warnings, according to the LA County Sheriff's Department (CSD) . (至少有10人在大火中丧生，有关当局说，死亡人数可能还会上升。数以千计的建筑被烧毁，无数街区被烧成灰烬。据洛杉矶县治安部门（CSD）称，大约有18万人不得不撤离，而两倍多的人已经收到了撤离警告。)”可知，本段主要描述火灾造成的人员伤亡、建筑损毁和疏散情况，属于火灾的破坏性影响。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Since the owners put the word out on social media that they would house donations for people affected by the fires, a seemingly endless stream of volunteers has shown up to the restaurant ready to help. (自从餐馆老板在社交媒体上发布消息称，他们将为受火灾影响的人们提供捐款后，似乎有源源不断的志愿者来到餐馆，准备提供帮助。)”可知，业主在网上发出行动呼吁之后，志愿者来到餐馆提供帮助，因此推断店主在社交媒体呼吁的目的是帮助火灾受灾者。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Some come armed with supplies, others are stopping by with their trucks and trailers to transport the aid to LA. (一些人带着物资前来，另一些人则开着卡车和拖车将援助物资运送到洛杉矶。)”及第四段“Boxes and boxes of clothing, articles for daily use, cat food, fresh fruit and cases of water ——lined the outside of the restaurant on Thursday night, waiting to be hauled away (拖走) .

As of Thursday night, more than 50 groups of people had dropped in to take the owners up on the offer. (Calico还为受火灾影响的人们提供免费膳食。截至周四晚上，已有50多组人前来接受业主的提议。)” Calico店主夫妇设立救灾中心、免费供餐、组织志愿者，由此推断他们是热心公益的人。故选C。 C Actually we feel differently every time we read the same poem. The first time you start to read a poem, you must relax and read through it without concentrating on its meaning. Imagine you are meeting a person for the first time. You will just observe him and listen to his voice, as well as watch his shapes or movements, but you have not yet known what he is all about. Likewise, you may enjoy the sound, rhythms, or wording, and form some first impressions about a poem. On your second reading, you should concentrate more on the general meaning of the poem. This time, you will want to compare your feelings about the poem by now with how you felt before. Are they the same? What is different and why? Your third reading will focus more on details: the words, phrases, or images. Looking up any unfamiliar words in a dictionary so that you can gain a more accurate understanding. Using the example given above about meeting someone, his image will change gradually and slightly as you meet and learn more about him. Therefore, in your additional readings, it is a good idea to compare your understanding each time with the understanding before. A helpful approach to further understanding a poem is to summarize it in your own words. Compare your version of understanding with those of others reading the same poem, and listen to how they form such opinions. Remember, however, that there is no exact or right meaning for a poem, as most poets have admitted they themselves are not exactly sure what they meant when writing certain lines or phrases; they have even been heard to say on occasion that sometimes words just seem to “drop from heaven” and land on the page. That is what awakening the imagination is all about. If you are lucky, and if you practice enough, magical things may happen when you write and you may be able to produce a beautiful poem or other work of art yourself. 8. Why does the author give the example of “meeting a person”? A. To make his point easier to understand. B. To activate reader’s interest in reading poems. C. To support his argument about reading poems. D. To advise poem readers to be relaxed. 9. What will you gain from the third reading of a poem ? A. General meaning. B. Deeper meaning. C. Rhythm beauty. D. Poetic structure. 10. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 4 refer to ? A. Poets themselves don’t understand their poems. B. Writing a summary helps understand a poem. C. Beautiful poems drop from heaven occasionally. D. Poetic meanings are open to different explanations. 11. What can we conclude from the last paragraph ? A. Inspiration and hard work help create great poems. B. Practice and patience make a man perfect. C. Poetry is an expression of one’s will in words. D. Luck belongs to those who give their very best 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章阐述了作者关于如何读诗的理解。作者认为读诗要分三遍进行，第一遍只是做个大概的了解，有个初印象；第二遍了解整体大意；第三了解深刻意义。文章最后一段介绍了写诗歌总结有助于加强对诗的理解。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段的首句“The first time you start to read a poem, you must relax and read through it without concentrating on its meaning.(当你第一次开始读一首诗时，你必须放松去阅读它，不要专注于它的意思。)”以及第一段的后几句“You will just observe him and listen to his voice, as well as watch his shapes or movements, but you have not yet known what he is all about. Likewise, you may enjoy the sound, rhythms, or wording, and form some first impressions about a poem.( 你只是观察他，听他的声音，以及观察他的形状或动作，但你还不知道他的一切。同样，你可能会喜欢一首诗的声音、节奏或措辞，并形成一些第一印象。)”可知，作者认为第一次读诗不需要做细致的分析和详尽的阅读，只是粗略地去了解。就像刚见到一个人一样，我们只会关注他的声音、外表等等。因此，作者举这个例是为了让读者更好地理解作者所表达的观点。故选A项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段前两句“Your third reading will focus more on details: the words, phrases, or images. Looking up any unfamiliar words in a dictionary so that you can gain a more accurate understanding.(第三次阅读你将要更多地关注细节：单词、短语或意象。用词典查找任何不熟悉的单词，这样你可以获得更准确的理解。)”以及最后一句“Therefore, in your additional readings, it is a good idea to compare your understanding each time with the understanding before.(因此，在你的额外阅读中，将你每次的理解与之前的理解进行比较是一个好主意。)”可知，第三次阅读要更加注意细节内容，这样才能更好地理解一首诗所传递的深刻含义，你才能真正地理解它。故选B项。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段第三和第四句“Remember, however, that there is no exact or right meaning for a poem, as most poets have admitted they themselves are not exactly sure what they meant when writing certain lines or phrases; they have even been heard to say on occasion that sometimes words just seem to “drop from heaven” and land on the page.(然而，请记住，一首诗没有确切或正确的含义，因为大多数诗人都承认，他们自己在写某些诗句或短语时并不确定所写的是什么意思；他们有时甚至会说，有时候文字就像是从天而降，落在纸上。)”可知，对于一首诗内容的理解可能会因人而异，而且连诗人都不确定自己想说什么，这也就需要读者自己发挥想象力做出解释了。所以that指的是“诗歌的意义可以有不同的解释”。故选D项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段最后两句“If you are lucky, and if you practice enough, magical things may happen when you write and you may be able to produce a beautiful poem or other work of art yourself.(如果你运气好，并且练习得足够多，当你写作的时候，神奇的事情可能会发生，你可能会自己创作出一首美丽的诗歌或其他艺术作品。)”可知，创造出好的诗或作品需要付出很多努力，当然还需要点运气，这个运气就是所谓的灵感，这样才会有神奇的事发生。故选A项。 D A couple in their 60s has travelled 12,000 miles across 16 countries from Britain to China — riding their bikes the entire way.

This year, however, her parents announced a new rule: no phones for the entire week. “But my friends will be expecting updates about the trip,” Kathy complained. Kathy’s mom gave her a serious look. Unwillingly, Kathy handed her phone over and her mom locked it away. The drive to the beach house took most of the day. As they turned off the highway onto countryback roads, the clouds darkened. Rain started to pour. “Even more beautiful in the rain,” her mother said. “What do you think, Kathy?” Kathy glared at her mom. “Beautiful,” she muttered. That night after dinner, Kathy wandered into the kitchen, where her father was washing dishes. She gave her father a loving look and said in her sweetest voice, “Couldn’t I have my phone back, just for one second? Just so I can tell everyone what an amazing time I’m having?” “Can’t,” he said. “It’s not here. Remember?” Kathy was very annoyed. Having nothing better to do, she examined the dusty bookcase in the living room. The books looked as dull as the weather. On the top shelf, however, she spotted a puzzle. She took it, emptied the pieces on the table, and began to sort them. After what seemed like a few minutes she looked up. It was past ten o'clock. She had been working for almost two hours! She yawned. The puzzle was less than half done, but she was exhausted. So, she went to bed. 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 Paragraph 1: After a quick breakfast, Kathy headed to the beach. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Appreciating the finished puzzle, she realized she hadn’t thought of her cellphone for hours. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: After a quick breakfast, Kathy headed to the beach. Under no circumstances had Kathy expected the scenery to be so spectacular! With the sea wind blowing against her face, Kathy totally lost herself in the stunning views. After half an hour’s leisure walk along the beach, Kathy returned to the house. “How do I spend the rest of the day?” Kathy murmured to herself. Suddenly, the unfinished puzzle caught her attention. She felt a little excited and buried herself in it once again. Every time the shapes met, Kathy was overwhelmed with happiness. Soon, all that were left were a few gaps. She quickly put the remaining pieces into place. The puzzle was completed! Appreciating the finished puzzle, she realized she hadn’t thought of her cellphone for hours. Trying to preserve the image in her mind, she quietly started taking it apart rather than taking pictures to update about the trip.That, she thought, was just for me. Without the distractions from her cellphone, she found herself engaged in story sharing session with mom and daddy willingly. They spent a high-quality family time together. On arriving home, mom gave her cellphone back. This time, however, she had no intention to share but to keep all the great memories in her mind. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述Kathy一家去旅行，妈妈要求旅行中不用手机，开始Kathy十分不习惯但又不得不遵守规则。Kathy完成了拼图，并且欣赏到了平时看不到的美景，还尽情享受了和父母在一起的时间和温暖。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Kathy快速吃完早饭后就跑去海边。”可知，第一段可描写Kathy在海边看到了美景，然后，回家完成昨晚没有完成的拼图。 ②由第二段首句内容“欣赏着自己完成的拼图，她意识到自己已经好几个小时没有想起手机这回事了。”可知，第二段可描写没有手机的打扰，一家人在这里度过的温馨生活，是在平时感受不到的，回到家后妈妈把手机还给Kathy后，她似乎已经不需要了。 2.续写线索： 去海边欣赏到美景——回家完成拼图——在脑海保存拼图——和父母度过高质量的假期——渐渐地已经不需要手机 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①回家：returned to the house/go back to the house ②吸引注意力：catch her attention /draw her attention ③保存：preserve/keep 情绪类 ①激动的：excited/thrilled ②十分高兴：be overwhelmed with happiness/be bathed in happiness 【点睛】[高分句型1].
