B On a bright September day in the French Alps in 2022 John McAvoy was 38 kilometres into a very exhausting ultramarathon through rough mountain paths. Battling tiredness, he pushed his body and mind through the final leg of the race. With the finish arch in the famous town of Chamonix just four kilometres away and the cloud-topped peak of Mont Blanc high over him, McAvoy welled up with emotion. In that moment, he felt so free and alive. It was quite the opposite from where his life had been a decade before. He had just been released from prison after serving a 10-year sentence. Now 40 years old, McAvoy has spent the last 10 years rebuilding his life from one of crime to one with purpose. It was on this day, while running the ultramarathon, that he realized how impactful conquering (征服) this mountain run could be for inner-city kids like him. After all, sport had helped him live a normal life again and open up his world. It could do the same for others. With the help of Youth Beyond Borders, McAvoy started the Alpine Run Project, which recently led 12 disadvantaged British young people through their own Mont Blanc races. The participants, from refugees (难民) to young reformed criminals and those who grew up in Children’s home, were matched with coaches, consultants and physiotherapists. After a six-month training program, the youth travelled to the Alps to meet up with McAvoy for their race. McAvoy says the highlight of this project for him was watching Yasmin Mahamud, a 20-year-old refugee from Syria, run through the finish arch and into the arms of her new friends. It was a life-changing high for Mahamud, too-inspiring her to keep running, take up martial arts and go to university to study physiotherapy. “It changed my point of view on life, says Mahamud. Pushing herself to complete the race gave her a brief experience of her own potential through hard work and devotion.” I will always be thankful to John for giving me this opportunity and guidance. 4. How did McAvoy feel before the finish arch? A. He felt totally collapsed. B. He was peaceful and hopeful. C. He was satisfied with his pace. D. He felt as if completely reborn. 5. What can we learn about McAvoy from paragraph 3? A. He was a builder 10 years ago. B. He realized the importance of sport. C. He ran to make up for his past wrongs. D. He had sympathy for the inner-city children. 6. Who most probably took part in the Mont Blanc races? A. A running coach. B. A travel lover. C. A homeless teenager. D. A skilled athlete. 7. What message does McAvoy’s story convey? A. Live for the moment. B. Dream big and climb high. C. After the storm comes the rainbow. D. Run after the light and become the light. C Clothes were once used until they fell apart. Not today. In high-income countries in particular, clothing and footwear are increasingly frequently bought, thrown away and replaced with new fashions, which are themselves soon thrown away and replaced. The so-called ‘Fast fashion’ is having a surprising environmental impact. The first one is water. The fashion industry consumes anywhere from 20 trillion (万亿) to 200 trillion litres every year. Then there are micro-plastics. Plastic fibres are released when we wash polyester (聚酯纤维) textiles, which make up between20% and 35% of the micro-plastics choking the oceans. Added to this are specific chemicals, such as those used to make fabrics stain resistant and the pesticides required to protect crops such as cotton. Change is badly needed, but will require the fashion industry to work harder to embrace more of what is known as the circular economy. That will involve at least two things: refocusing on making things that last, and so encouraging reuse; and more rapidly expanding the technologies for sustainable manufacturing processes, especially recycling. There’s a big role for research-both academic and industrial-in achieving these and other ambitions. Researchers could begin by helping to provide more accurate estimates of water use. There is also work to be done on improving and expanding textiles recycling. Undoubtedly, used textiles go to landfill in part because there are relatively few systems that collect, recycle and reuse materials. Such recycling requires the manual separation of fibres, as well as buttons and zips. Different fibres are not easy to identify by eye, and overall such manual processes are time-consuming. Machinery that can help is being developed. Technologies also exist to recycle used fibres chemically and to create high-quality fibres that can be reused in clothing. But these are nowhere near the scale needed. Another challenge for researchers is to workout how to get consumers and manufacturers to change their behaviour. Other research questions include finding ways to encourage people to purchase long lasting goods; exploring how to satisfy desires for something new while reducing environmental impact; and understanding why certain measures can be successfully scaled up whereas others fail. 8. Why does the author mention “water”, “micro-plastics” and “chemicals” in Paragraph 2? A. To provide an idea. B. To prove a point. C. To give a definition. D. To present new concepts. 9. Which of the following goes against the concept of “circular economy”? A Efforts are made to lengthen the lifespan of textiles. B. Worn-out clothes are used as dishcloths and oil rags. C. High-quality fibres are created to be reused in clothing. D. Fashion industry is encouraged to release new lines more often. 10. What is the right thing for the fashion industry researchers to do? A. To make sure that all of the used textiles go to landfill. B. To separate fibres, as well as buttons and zips manually. C. To improve and expand textile recycling to a larger extent. D. To encourage consumers to satisfy their desires for fashion. 11. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text? A. Say Yes to the So-called Fast Fashion B. Cut Fast Fashion’s Environmental Impact C. Address the Academic Challenges for Researchers D. Improve the Efficiency of the Separation of Fibres D Has someone ever told you something that made you doubt your own memory or judgment? If so, you may be a victim of gaslighting: “Gaslighting” is a kind of psychological abuse to gain power over others by purposely making other people think they’re wrong even when they’re right. The term comes from Patrick Hamilton’s play in 1938. Lead character Jack Manningham seeks to convince his wife Bella that she is going crazy, by saying she is imagining the dimming of the gas light in their home, when it was actually he who lowered the brightness of the light. Gaslighting is initially used to talk about what happens in romantic relationships. However, many individuals also experience gaslighting at work. In fact, a recent survey has found that 58% of the respondents said they have experienced gaslighting at work. It’s unsurprising since gaslighting usually involves a power relationship and a need to control others. In the workplace, the dynamics between a boss and his employee can be the perfect breeding ground for this type of behavior. You boss may tell you to handle an assignment in a certain way, but when you do, he gets annoyed and says it isn’t what he wants. It makes you feel like your memory is faulty. In order to find out whether your boss’s behavior really constitutes gaslighting or he is just a poor communicator, you could write down your experiences and ask yourself what really has happened, what his motives might be, and how your emotion is affected. But always be careful because gaslighters know how to fly under the radar. They are skilled at weakening an employee’s confidence and sense of reality in a clever and hard-to-prove way. To protect yourself, at the end of the conversation with your boss, repeat back what you have heard and follow up with an e-mail restating the main points, documenting the interactions between you two. But don’t get your hopes high that this will automatically solve the problem, Robin Stern, author of The Gaslight Effect, warns, because it’s hard to get a gaslighter to change his behavior pattern. If things don’t improve, you may want to consider getting out of the gaslighting situation by looking for a new position. 12 Why does the author mention Patrick Hamliton’s play in paragraph 1? A. To introduce a famous play in history. B. To show the origin of the term “gaslighting”. C. To describe how people go crazy in daily life. D. To explain the relationship between couples. 13. Why is gaslighting common in the workplace according to the text? A. Because employees are too sensitive. B. Because bosses are poor communicators. C. Because employers want to dominate. D. Because work assignments are too difficult. 14. What is suggested for employees to determine if their boss is gaslighting them? A. E-mailing their boss to ask for documents. B. Having an argument with the boss. C. Recording and analyzing their experiences. D. Making a complaint to the superiors. 15. What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage? A. To introduce gaslighting’s origin and its solutions. B. To highlight gaslighting’s harm and its reasons. C. To discuss a survey on gaslighting and its effects. D. To explain gaslighting’s definition and its types. 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） Food waste is a major issue in agriculture and in homes.

Maya’s class was going to make cards for the seniors living in a nursing home. It was also the first day Maya would be wearing her leg brace (腿支架) to school, which was designed to help her walk more steadily and smoothly. It was a cold autumn morning, Maya looked down, feeling embarrassed. To make it lovelier, she had delicately decorated the brace with pretty butterfly patterns. Still, she was unsure about others’ reaction. All morning at school, kids kept glancing at her brace. To her relief, they didn’t say anything. In the classroom, Maya was drawing little green buds (芽) and pretty flowers when her friend Samir came over and sat by her. She felt his eyes fixed on her brace and heard him asking, “What’s that for?” Not knowing what to say, Maya pretended she didn’t hear him. After a few seconds of awkwardness, she glanced back at him, and found that he looked a little sad. After lunch, the class set off. The nursing home was on a small hill and all of them walked there happily along the path. Maya found that the brace did make it easier for her to walk up. Maya and Samir were paired up with a lady who was 83 years old. There at the end of the hall in a wheelchair, with a big smile on her face, sat the lady, wearing a pink coat, with red lipstick and beautiful earrings. She looked bright and full of life. Moving flexibly and fast towards Maya and Samir, she greeted first. “I’m Joan, ” she said cheerfully, “Glad to meet you. ” Maya and Samir handed her the cards they made. Joan looked at Samir’s card carefully and spoke with admiration, “You’ve written a poem! That’s so artistic!” Samir’s face reddened with shyness. Then Joan turned to Maya’s picture. “The first flowers of spring!” she cried in delight. “You really have a gift for using colour!” she said. Clearly, Joan’s praise added great power into Maya. 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。 In a sudden wave of bravery, Maya asked, “What’s it like being in a wheelchair?” ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Deeply impressed by Joan, Maya offered to sit beside Samir on the bus ride back home. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 苏大附中2024-2025学年第二学期期中检测 高二年级英语试卷 （考试时间：120分钟 总分150分） 第一部分 听力 （共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共5小题，每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 1.

Battling tiredness, he pushed his body and mind through the final leg of the race. With the finish arch in the famous town of Chamonix just four kilometres away and the cloud-topped peak of Mont Blanc high over him, McAvoy welled up with emotion. In that moment, he felt so free and alive. It was quite the opposite from where his life had been a decade before. He had just been released from prison after serving a 10-year sentence. Now 40 years old, McAvoy has spent the last 10 years rebuilding his life from one of crime to one with purpose. It was on this day, while running the ultramarathon, that he realized how impactful conquering (征服) this mountain run could be for inner-city kids like him. After all, sport had helped him live a normal life again and open up his world. It could do the same for others. With the help of Youth Beyond Borders, McAvoy started the Alpine Run Project, which recently led 12 disadvantaged British young people through their own Mont Blanc races. The participants, from refugees (难民) to young reformed criminals and those who grew up in Children’s home, were matched with coaches, consultants and physiotherapists. After a six-month training program, the youth travelled to the Alps to meet up with McAvoy for their race. McAvoy says the highlight of this project for him was watching Yasmin Mahamud, a 20-year-old refugee from Syria, run through the finish arch and into the arms of her new friends. It was a life-changing high for Mahamud, too-inspiring her to keep running, take up martial arts and go to university to study physiotherapy. “It changed my point of view on life, says Mahamud. Pushing herself to complete the race gave her a brief experience of her own potential through hard work and devotion.” I will always be thankful to John for giving me this opportunity and guidance. 4. How did McAvoy feel before the finish arch? A. He felt totally collapsed. B. He was peaceful and hopeful. C. He was satisfied with his pace. D. He felt as if completely reborn. 5. What can we learn about McAvoy from paragraph 3? A. He was a builder 10 years ago. B. He realized the importance of sport. C. He ran to make up for his past wrongs. D. He had sympathy for the inner-city children. 6. Who most probably took part in the Mont Blanc races? A. A running coach. B. A travel lover. C. A homeless teenager. D. A skilled athlete. 7. What message does McAvoy’s story convey? A. Live for the moment. B. Dream big and climb high. C. After the storm comes the rainbow. D. Run after the light and become the light. 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了从犯罪生活重返社会、寻找生活目标的John McAvoy通过参与超级马拉松比赛改变了自己的生活，然后创办Alpine Run Project帮助其他处境困难的年轻人的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的“In that moment, he felt so free and alive. It was quite the opposite from where his life had been a decade before. He had just been released from prison after serving a 10-year sentence.(在那一刻，他感到如此自由和充满活力。这与他十年前的生活完全相反。他在服完10年徒刑后刚刚从监狱获释。)”可知，John McAvoy在终点拱门前感觉自己仿佛完全重生了一样，开启了新生活。故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“It was on this day, while running the ultramarathon, that he realized how impactful conquering this mountain run could be for inner-city kids like him. After all, sport had helped him live a normal life again and open up his world. (就在这一天，当他跑超级马拉松的时候，他意识到征服这个山跑对像他这样的贫民区孩子来说是多么有影响力。毕竟，体育帮助他重新过上了正常的生活，打开了他的世界。) ”可知，从第三段我们可以了解到John McAvoy认识到体育运动的重要性，它帮助麦卡沃伊过上了新的生活。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段的“The participants, from refugees to young reformed criminals and those who grew up in Children’s home, were matched with coaches, consultants and physiotherapists. (参与者，从难民到年轻的改过自新的罪犯，以及在儿童福利院长大的人，都有教练、咨询师和理疗师与之匹配。)”推知，无家可归的少年最有可能参加过勃朗峰的比赛。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段的“With the help of Youth Beyond Borders, McAvoy started the Alpine Run Project, which recently led 12 disadvantaged British young people through their own Mont Blanc races. The participants, from refugees to young reformed criminals and those who grew up in Children’s home, were matched with coaches, consultants and physiotherapists. (在Youth Beyond Borders的帮助下，John McAvoy 启动了“高山跑步项目”，最近带领12名处境不利的英国年轻人参加了他们自己的勃朗峰比赛。参与者，从难民到年轻的改过自新的罪犯，以及在儿童福利院长大的人，都有教练、咨询师和理疗师与之匹配。)”和第五段的“It was a life-changing high for Mahamud, too-inspiring her to keep running, take up martial arts and go to university to study physiotherapy.(对Mahamud来说，这是一个改变人生的高潮，也激励她继续跑步，学习武术，上大学学习物理治疗。)”以及第六段的““It changed my point of view on life, says Mahamud. Pushing herself to complete the race gave her a brief experience of her own potential through hard work and devotion. ” I will always be thankful to John for giving me this opportunity and guidance.(Mahamud说：“这改变了我对生活的看法。推动自己完成比赛让她通过努力和奉献短暂地体验了自己的潜力。”我将永远感谢约翰给我这个机会和指导。)”可知，John McAvoy从犯罪生活重返社会、寻找生活目标，他意识到体育运动对于处于困境的孩子们有着巨大的影响力，因此他的故事可以鼓励个人追求积极向上，散发积极能量，照亮周围的世界，D项“奔向光明，成为光明”符合。故选D。 C Clothes were once used until they fell apart. Not today. In high-income countries in particular, clothing and footwear are increasingly frequently bought, thrown away and replaced with new fashions, which are themselves soon thrown away and replaced. The so-called ‘Fast fashion’ is having a surprising environmental impact. The first one is water. The fashion industry consumes anywhere from 20 trillion (万亿) to 200 trillion litres every year. Then there are micro-plastics. Plastic fibres are released when we wash polyester (聚酯纤维) textiles, which make up between20% and 35% of the micro-plastics choking the oceans. Added to this are specific chemicals, such as those used to make fabrics stain resistant and the pesticides required to protect crops such as cotton. Change is badly needed, but will require the fashion industry to work harder to embrace more of what is known as the circular economy. That will involve at least two things: refocusing on making things that last, and so encouraging reuse; and more rapidly expanding the technologies for sustainable manufacturing processes, especially recycling. There’s a big role for research-both academic and industrial-in achieving these and other ambitions. Researchers could begin by helping to provide more accurate estimates of water use. There is also work to be done on improving and expanding textiles recycling. Undoubtedly, used textiles go to landfill in part because there are relatively few systems that collect, recycle and reuse materials. Such recycling requires the manual separation of fibres, as well as buttons and zips. Different fibres are not easy to identify by eye, and overall such manual processes are time-consuming. Machinery that can help is being developed. Technologies also exist to recycle used fibres chemically and to create high-quality fibres that can be reused in clothing. But these are nowhere near the scale needed. Another challenge for researchers is to workout how to get consumers and manufacturers to change their behaviour. Other research questions include finding ways to encourage people to purchase long lasting goods; exploring how to satisfy desires for something new while reducing environmental impact; and understanding why certain measures can be successfully scaled up whereas others fail. 8. Why does the author mention “water”, “micro-plastics” and “chemicals” in Paragraph 2? A. To provide an idea. B. To prove a point. C To give a definition. D. To present new concepts. 9. Which of the following goes against the concept of “circular economy”? A. Efforts are made to lengthen the lifespan of textiles. B. Worn-out clothes are used as dishcloths and oil rags. C. High-quality fibres are created to be reused in clothing. D. Fashion industry is encouraged to release new lines more often. 10. What is the right thing for the fashion industry researchers to do? A. To make sure that all of the used textiles go to landfill. B. To separate fibres, as well as buttons and zips manually. C. To improve and expand textile recycling to a larger extent. D. To encourage consumers to satisfy their desires for fashion. 11. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text? A. Say Yes to the So-called Fast Fashion B. Cut Fast Fashion’s Environmental Impact C. Address the Academic Challenges for Researchers D. Improve the Efficiency of the Separation of Fibres 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了所谓的“快时尚”对环境产生的影响，以及给我们提供的建议，以避免这种影响。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段的“The so-called ‘Fast fashion’ is having a surprising environmental impact. The first one is water. The fashion industry consumes anywhere from 20 trillion (万亿) to 200 trillion litres every year. Then there are micro-plastics. Plastic fibres are released when we wash polyester (聚酯纤维) textiles, which make up between20% and 35% of the micro-plastics choking the oceans. Added to this are specific chemicals, such as those used to make fabrics stain resistant and the pesticides required to protect crops such as cotton.(所谓的“快时尚”正在对环境产生惊人的影响。第一个是水。时尚产业每年消耗20万亿到200万亿升的水。还有微塑料。当我们清洗涤纶纺织品时，塑料纤维就会被释放出来，而这些纤维占了堵塞海洋的微塑料的20%到35%。除此之外，还有一些特殊的化学物质，比如用于使织物耐污的化学物质，以及用于保护棉花等作物的农药)”可知，作者在第二段中提到“水”、“微塑料”和“化学品”的目的是为了证明一个观点，也就是“快时尚”正在对环境产生惊人的影响。故选B。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段的“That will involve at least two things: refocusing on making things that last, and so encouraging reuse; and more rapidly expanding the technologies for sustainable manufacturing processes, especially recycling. There’s a big role for research-both academic and industrial-in achieving these and other ambitions.(这至少涉及两件事：重新专注于制造耐用的物品，从而鼓励重复使用；并更迅速地扩展可持续制造过程的技术，特别是回收利用。学术和工业研究在实现这些和其他雄心方面发挥着重要作用)”可知，与“循环经济”的概念相抵触的是鼓励时尚产业更频繁地发布新产品。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段的“Researchers could begin by helping to provide more accurate estimates of water use. There is also work to be done on improving and expanding textiles recycling.(研究人员可以从帮助提供更准确的用水量估算开始。在改善和扩大纺织品回收方面也有工作要做)”可知，时尚产业研究者应该做的正确的事情是在更大程度上改善和扩大纺织品回收利用。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段“The so-called ‘Fast fashion’ is having a surprising environmental impact.(所谓的“快时尚”正在对环境产生惊人的影响)”和第三段“Change is badly needed, but will require the fashion industry to work harder to embrace more of what is known as the circular economy.(改变是迫切需要的，但这需要时尚行业更加努力地接受所谓的循环经济)”可知，文章讲述了所谓的“快时尚”对环境产生的影响，以及给我们提供的建议，以避免这种影响，因此最好的题目是B选项“减少快时尚对环境的影响”。故选B。 D Has someone ever told you something that made you doubt your own memory or judgment? If so, you may be a victim of gaslighting: “Gaslighting” is a kind of psychological abuse to gain power over others by purposely making other people think they’re wrong even when they’re right. The term comes from Patrick Hamilton’s play in 1938. Lead character Jack Manningham seeks to convince his wife Bella that she is going crazy, by saying she is imagining the dimming of the gas light in their home, when it was actually he who lowered the brightness of the light. Gaslighting is initially used to talk about what happens in romantic relationships. However, many individuals also experience gaslighting at work. In fact, a recent survey has found that 58% of the respondents said they have experienced gaslighting at work. It’s unsurprising since gaslighting usually involves a power relationship and a need to control others. In the workplace, the dynamics between a boss and his employee can be the perfect breeding ground for this type of behavior. You boss may tell you to handle an assignment in a certain way, but when you do, he gets annoyed and says it isn’t what he wants. It makes you feel like your memory is faulty. In order to find out whether your boss’s behavior really constitutes gaslighting or he is just a poor communicator, you could write down your experiences and ask yourself what really has happened, what his motives might be, and how your emotion is affected. But always be careful because gaslighters know how to fly under the radar. They are skilled at weakening an employee’s confidence and sense of reality in a clever and hard-to-prove way. To protect yourself, at the end of the conversation with your boss, repeat back what you have heard and follow up with an e-mail restating the main points, documenting the interactions between you two. But don’t get your hopes high that this will automatically solve the problem, Robin Stern, author of The Gaslight Effect, warns, because it’s hard to get a gaslighter to change his behavior pattern. If things don’t improve, you may want to consider getting out of the gaslighting situation by looking for a new position. 12. Why does the author mention Patrick Hamliton’s play in paragraph 1? A. To introduce a famous play in history. B. To show the origin of the term “gaslighting”. C. To describe how people go crazy in daily life. D. To explain the relationship between couples. 13. Why is gaslighting common in the workplace according to the text? A. Because employees are too sensitive. B. Because bosses are poor communicators. C. Because employers want to dominate. D. Because work assignments are too difficult. 14. What is suggested for employees to determine if their boss is gaslighting them? A. E-mailing their boss to ask for documents. B. Having an argument with the boss. C. Recording and analyzing their experiences. D. Making a complaint to the superiors. 15 What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage? A. To introduce gaslighting’s origin and its solutions. B. To highlight gaslighting’s harm and its reasons. C. To discuss a survey on gaslighting and its effects. D. To explain gaslighting’s definition and its types. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。“煤气灯效应”是一种通过操控他人心理以获权的手段，源于戏剧，如今职场常见，文中教员工记录分析经历判断老板是否如此，还给出保护自身、摆脱困境的办法。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段第三句“The term comes from Patrick Hamilton’s play in 1938. (这个术语来自帕特里克・汉密尔顿 1938 年的戏剧)”可推知，这里提到帕特里克・汉密尔顿的戏剧是为了说明gaslighting这个术语的起源，原文中明确表明该术语源自此戏剧。故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段第三句“It’s unsurprising since gaslighting usually involves a power relationship and a need to control others. (这并不奇怪，因为煤气灯效应通常涉及权力关系和控制他人的需求)”可知，煤气灯效应在工作场所常见是因为雇主想要掌控局面，文中提到煤气灯效应涉及控制他人需求，工作中老板与员工权力关系易滋生此行为。故选C项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“In order to find out whether your boss’s behavior really constitutes gaslighting or he is just a poor communicator, you could write down your experiences and ask yourself what really has happened, what his motives might be, and how your emotion is affected. (为了弄清楚你老板的行为是否真的构成煤气灯效应，还是他只是一个沟通能力差的人，你可以写下你的经历，问问自己到底发生了什么，他的动机可能是什么，以及你的情绪是如何受到影响的)”可知，建议员工记录并分析他们的经历来判断老板是否在对他们实施煤气灯效应，原文明确指出通过写下经历并自我询问来判断。故选C项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章第一段解释了gaslighting的定义并介绍其起源，最后两段提出了应对煤气灯效应的方法，如记录对话内容、考虑换工作等。如第一段提及术语来源，最后两段讲述应对措施。由此推知，作者写这篇文章的目的是介绍煤气灯效应的起源及其解决办法。故选A项。 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） Food waste is a major issue in agriculture and in homes.

Maya’s class was going to make cards for the seniors living in a nursing home. It was also the first day Maya would be wearing her leg brace (腿支架) to school which was designed to help her walk more steadily and smoothly. It was a cold autumn morning, Maya looked down, feeling embarrassed. To make it lovelier, she had delicately decorated the brace with pretty butterfly patterns. Still, she was unsure about others’ reaction. All morning at school, kids kept glancing at her brace. To her relief, they didn’t say anything. In the classroom, Maya was drawing little green buds (芽) and pretty flowers when her friend Samir came over and sat by her. She felt his eyes fixed on her brace and heard him asking, “What’s that for?” Not knowing what to say, Maya pretended she didn’t hear him. After a few seconds of awkwardness, she glanced back at him, and found that he looked a little sad. After lunch, the class set off. The nursing home was on a small hill and all of them walked there happily along the path. Maya found that the brace did make it easier for her to walk up. Maya and Samir were paired up with a lady who was 83 years old. There at the end of the hall in a wheelchair, with a big smile on her face, sat the lady, wearing a pink coat, with red lipstick and beautiful earrings. She looked bright and full of life. Moving flexibly and fast towards Maya and Samir, she greeted first. “I’m Joan, ” she said cheerfully, “Glad to meet you. ” Maya and Samir handed her the cards they made. Joan looked at Samir’s card carefully and spoke with admiration, “You’ve written a poem! That’s so artistic!” Samir’s face reddened with shyness. Then Joan turned to Maya’s picture. “The first flowers of spring!” she cried in delight. “You really have a gift for using colour!” she said. Clearly, Joan’s praise added great power into Maya. 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。 In a sudden wave of bravery, Maya asked, “What’s it like being in a wheelchair?” ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Deeply impressed by Joan, Maya offered to sit beside Samir on the bus ride back home. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 In a sudden wave of bravery Maya asked, “What’s it like being in a wheelchair?” “It helps me get around,” Joan said simply. Then, grinning, she added, “You’d be surprised at how fast I can go in this thing!” Right then, she moved the wheelchair across the room, turning around, back and forth. And what surprised Maya most was that she didn’t detect any pity or embarrassment from her. Then Maya looked up and found Joan was smiling, eyes purposefully resting on her brace. It was then that a spark of power was lit up deep inside Maya. That afternoon, the three of them had a pleasant talk over lots of things until it was dusk. Deeply impressed by Joan, Maya offered to sit beside Samir on the bus ride back home. “Joan is great. I like her.” Samir admired. Maya nodded, lost in thought. With Joan’s wheelchair and smile in mind, she summoned up her courage and said, “The brace keeps my toe up so I can walk better.” “Really?” Samir looked amazed, reached out and touched it gently. “That’s super cool!” His words were so sincere that Maya felt warm and moved. It was a reaction that she expected deep inside her heart. Though it was autumn outside, it felt like spring for Maya. A little green bud was bursting — she and her brace looked cool, beautiful and dynamic in her and others’ eyes. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了玛雅因为需要依靠腿支架才能走得更稳定、更平稳而觉得尴尬，她不搭理注意到她的支架的萨米尔，令萨米尔有点伤心，在养老院的活动中，玛雅和坐轮椅但依旧乐观的萨米尔互动交流后，心态有所改善，离开养老院，乘车回家途中玛雅主动告诉萨米尔她的支架的作用，俩人有了真诚的交流，萨米尔没有嘲笑她的支架。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“玛雅突然鼓起勇气问道：“坐在轮椅上是什么感觉？”可知，第一段可描写玛雅与坐轮椅的琼的交流使玛雅心态的改变。 ②由第二段首句内容“琼给玛雅留下了深刻的印象，她主动提出在回家的公交车上坐在萨米尔旁边。”可知，第二段可描写玛雅与萨米尔在回家途中的聊天，以及知道支架功能后萨米尔的反映让玛雅明白了萨米尔的真诚。 2.续写线索：去养老院看望老奶奶琼——得知琼坐轮椅的积极心态后的改变——主动告知萨米尔实情——萨米尔的真诚态度温暖了玛雅 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.觉察到：detect /notice ②.鼓足勇气：summon up one’s courage / muster (up) one's courage ③.期待：expect/look forward to 情绪类 ①.惊讶的：amazed /surprised ②.真诚的：sincere/ genuine 【点睛】[高分句型1].
