“During the last 15 km, I felt faint and my face and hands were dead,” recalled Miao Hao, China’s first professional triathlete (参加三项全能赛的运动员). Exhausted at the last 200m at the IRONMAN Hamburg European Championship held in Germany on June 2, Miao collapsed near the finish line, crawling his way across it.
As a super tough race with multiple sports, the Ironman Triathlon includes a 3.8 km swim, a 180 km bike ride and a 42.195 km marathon. Being a former military triathlete, Miao represented the national team before retiring in 2018. The government offered him a job as a civil servant. But Miao chose to pursue a career as a professional triathlete, giving up the stability of the former.
Going from a national team athlete to a professional has presented significant challenges for Miao. “In the national team, I had comprehensive support and was merely an athlete. Now, I am also a husband and a father, shouldering family responsibilities like dropping my son off at primary school before starting my training,” he noted. Miao also faces financial pressure due to managing his own coaching, physiotherapists, nutritionists and support staff.
As the first professional triathlete in China, Miao is exploring future options for professional athletes. In addition to training, Miao shares his training and competition experiences through social media to attract more people to understand and participate in triathlon. At the same time, he regularly communicates with various sports clubs to introduce the charm of triathlon. “To boost triathlon in China and prepare for future Olympics, we need teamwork from various sectors, including more youth training and business sponsorship,” he said. “I hope more Chinese triathletes will compete in the Olympics and stand on more stages,” said Miao.
24. What did Miao do to become a professional triathlete?
A. Retire from the military.
B. Train independently in Germany.
C. Reject a stable government job.
D. Start youth training programs.
25. What’s Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. Miao’s different identities and responsibilities.
B. Miao’s pains during independent training.
C. Miao’s pressure of criticisms from his family.
D. Miao’s hardships of public opinion and expectations.
26. How does Miao promote triathlon in China?
A. By setting up the business sponsorship for athletes.
B. By asking clubs to promote the charm of triathlon.
C. By telling his stories to arouse people’s interest in triathlon.
D. By establishing youth teams and training younger athletes.
27. Which of the following words can best describe Miao?
A. Determined and hard - working.
B. Friendly and innovative.
C. Ambitious and enthusiastic.
D. Thoughtful and knowledgeable.
C
Blue light glasses gained popularity over the past few years with the idea that they protect our eyes against screen usage, but a new analysis shows they might not be as beneficial to our eye health as previously hoped. Spectacles (眼镜) that are marketed to filter out blue light probably make no difference to eye tiredness caused by computer use or to sleep quality, according to a Cochrane review of 17 randomized controlled trials of the best available evidence so far. Nor did the review, led by authors from the University of Melbourne and published in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, find any evidence that blue-light filtering lenses (镜片) protect against damage to the retina (视网膜), the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye.
“We found there may be no short-term advantages with using blue-light filtering spectacle lenses to reduce visual fatigue associated with computer use, compared to non-blue-light filtering lenses,” said Laura Downie, senior author of the review and professor at the University of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, in a news release.
“It is also currently unclear whether these lenses affect vision quality or sleep - related outcomes, and no conclusion could be drawn about any potential effects on retinal health in the longer term.” she added. “People should be aware of the findings when deciding whether to purchase these spectacles. However, the quality and duration of the studies also need to be considered,” she said. “We performed the systematic review of Cochrane methodological standards to ensure the findings are robust (强有力的). However, our certainty in the reported findings is limited by the quality of the available evidence,” she added.
The studies they reviewed ranged in size and length, with a span from as few as five to as many as 156 participants assessed over different periods, from less than one day to five weeks. The authors said more research with longer follow-ups in more diverse populations is needed to better assess any potential effects. “More studies should examine whether effectiveness and safety outcomes vary between different groups of people and using different types of lenses,” author Dr. Sumeer Singh, a postdoctoral research fellow in the Downie Laboratory, advised for future research.
Instead of shelling out money for special shades, however, experts advise taking screen breaks.
28. What can we infer about blue light glasses?
A. It can greatly benefit our eye health like before.
B. It makes a big difference to eye strain or sleep quality.
C. It was thought to protect our eyes against screen usage.
D. It can not protect our eye health at all.
29. What does the underlined word “fatigue” in the second paragraph mean?
A. Clearness.
B. Exhaustion.
C. Effectiveness.
D. Formation.
30 What do we know from Laura Downie’s words?
A. There is a short-term relief for visual fatigue.
B. These lenses affect vision quality or sleep-related outcomes.
C. These lenses do harm to long-term retinal health.
D. People should think twice before purchasing these spectacles.
31. What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. The popularity of blue light glasses.
B. The long-term advantages of blue light glasses.
C. The future of blue light glasses.
D. The objective introduction to blue light glasses.
D
University exams taken by fake students using artificial intelligence (AI) beat those by real students and usually went undetected by markers, in a limited study.
University of Reading researchers created 33 imaginary students and used AI tool to generate answers to module exams for an undergraduate psychology degree at the institution. They said the AI students’ results were half a grade boundary higher on average than those of their real-life counterparts (对应的人或物). And the AI essays “verged on being undetectable”, with 94% not raising concerns with markers.
The 6% detection rate is likely to be an overestimate, according to the study, published in the journal PLOS One. “This is particularly worrying because AI submissions firmly gained higher grades than real student submissions,” it said. “Thus, students could cheat undetected using AI and in doing so, attain a better grade than those who did not cheat.”
Associate Prof Peter Scarfe and Prof Etienne Roesch, who led the study, said their findings should be a “wake-call” for educators around the world. “Many institutions have moved away from traditional exams to make assessment more inclusive. Our research shows it is of international importance to understand how AI will affect the integrity of educational assessments. We don’t necessarily go back fully to handwritten exams but the global education sector will need to evolve in the face of AI.”
However, there’s also an interesting phenomenon. In the study, fake exam answers and essays were submitted for first-, second- and third- year modules, without the knowledge of those marking them. The scores by the AI students beat those achieved by the real undergraduates in the first two years. “But the humans scored better in the third-year exams, which is consistent with the idea that current AI struggles with more abstract reasoning,” the researchers said.
Academics have raised concerns about the influence of AI in education, with Glasgow University recently reintroducing in-person exams for one course. Earlier this year, a study had found 69% of undergraduates used artificial-intelligence programs to help with their essays, but just 5% admitted pasting unedited AI-generated text into their assessments.
32. Where is this text most likely from?
A. A students’ textbook.
B. An experiment report.
C. A psychology brochure.
D. A technology column.
33. What do Peter Scarfe and Etienne Roesch emphasize?
A. The links between handwritten exams and academic honesty.
B. The need to reconsider inclusivity of new assessments.
C. The significance for global exam reforms against AI cheats.
D The criticism of broader evaluation methods.
34. What can be concluded from the study?
A. The study confirms the understanding of the imperfection of AI.
B. Scoring standards of different grades are different.
C. The potential for AI to be used for cheating is overestimated.
D. Higher-grade students need no AI restrictions.
35. What do the last paragraph’s figures indicate?
A. AI development outpaces educational adaptation.
B. Insufficient academic efforts go against AI issues.
C. Overuse of AI harms students’ skills.
D. Dishonesty about the AI usage has emerged.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Faced with the bright lights and cameras, Tim stood nervously in the recording studio, his worn-out leather jacket sticking to his back under the extreme heat of twelve LED panels (LED显示屏) which were hanging from the ceiling. The cameras looked like some giant insects with glowing red eyes ready to attack, making him think of how he’d hidden behind amplifiers (扬声器) during their first bar performance in 2005. After twenty years of playing in local bars with his band, they finally got a chance to make their first music video for their breakthrough single in the studio.
The studio’s air conditioner buzzed like a swarm of bees and its cold linoleum (油毡) floor contrasted sharply with the sticky pub stages he’d known. A production assistant rushed past while carrying a clipboard (剪贴板), the environment making Tim nervous.
But as the director called “Action!”, Tim’s hands froze again, missing the opening part of the music. Three attempts were already ruined by his trembling hands. The wrong notes which sounded like metal echoed through the soundproofed (隔音的) walls, each failed attempt amplifying (放大) the shake in his hands. For twenty years, his guitar had sung through smoky pubs and rainy street performances, but now its strings felt slippery under his sweaty fingers. His fingers, once so confident on the guitar strings, now felt awkward and inflexible. He had never been good at performing for cameras, and age hadn’t made it any easier.
His bandmates exchanged concerned glances with each others. “Relax, let’s try again!” the director said with patience. Tim glanced at his bandmates, who had been through countless performances with him in the past twenty years. They gave him encouraging smiles, but he could feel his confidence slipping away. The guitar that had been his faithful companion for decades now felt like a stranger in his hands.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Just as Tim was about to apologize and step away, one of the bandmates, the drummer Jack, walked over.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Surrounded by these familiar voices and stories, Tim felt something shift inside him.

W: It is, and I got to meet Hugh Jackman at a film premiere. That’s been the highlight of my year so far.
M: So what made you start your channel?
W:You wouldn’t think it, but my house used to be a right mess, and I realized it was because I’d never had anyone to show me how to do things that people might consider simple, like how to clean an oven.
M: So you researched these things?
W: Yeah. Mainly I asked some elderly people I took care of at a nursing home. They are a wealth of information. The channel wouldn’t have been successful without them.
M: And now you have launched your own cleaning range.
W: Yes. I wanted healthy and safe cleaning products that hadn’t been tested on animals, so I had to make my own!

【原文】 This year, the Young Achievement Award for outstanding contributions to the world of science and technology goes to someone so deserving of it. Despite the fact that she is still at school, she has devoted herself to making this world a better place through the application of science and engineering. Her design and construction of a hand-held pollution monitor is nothing short of extraordinary. It can be put to use immediately and has so far been used to assess air quality in schools and residential areas, but what makes it stand out from the crowd is how it communicates with its human users. It uses emojis to communicate pollution levels to the public, meaning that this device can be used anywhere in the world and understood universally. Perhaps it is her young mind that has found ideas that we old scientists have overlooked! She comes from a town in Wales whose name is so long that I cannot pronounce it, but I’m sure she will be able to, as she has achieved top marks in her Welsh exams, in addition to math, physics, and chemistry. Although she has her heart set on going to Oxford University, I’m sure she’ll be getting many job offers here tonight. Without further ado, please welcome Petra Prichard to the stage!

“During the last 15 km, I felt faint and my face and hands were dead,” recalled Miao Hao, China’s first professional triathlete (参加三项全能赛的运动员). Exhausted at the last 200m at the IRONMAN Hamburg European Championship held in Germany on June 2, Miao collapsed near the finish line, crawling his way across it.
As a super tough race with multiple sports, the Ironman Triathlon includes a 3.8 km swim, a 180 km bike ride and a 42.195 km marathon. Being a former military triathlete, Miao represented the national team before retiring in 2018. The government offered him a job as a civil servant. But Miao chose to pursue a career as a professional triathlete, giving up the stability of the former.
Going from a national team athlete to a professional has presented significant challenges for Miao. “In the national team, I had comprehensive support and was merely an athlete. Now, I am also a husband and a father, shouldering family responsibilities like dropping my son off at primary school before starting my training,” he noted. Miao also faces financial pressure due to managing his own coaching, physiotherapists, nutritionists and support staff.
As the first professional triathlete in China, Miao is exploring future options for professional athletes. In addition to training, Miao shares his training and competition experiences through social media to attract more people to understand and participate in triathlon. At the same time, he regularly communicates with various sports clubs to introduce the charm of triathlon. “To boost triathlon in China and prepare for future Olympics, we need teamwork from various sectors, including more youth training and business sponsorship,” he said. “I hope more Chinese triathletes will compete in the Olympics and stand on more stages,” said Miao.
24. What did Miao do to become a professional triathlete?
A. Retire from the military.
B. Train independently in Germany.
C. Reject a stable government job.
D. Start youth training programs.
25. What’s Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. Miao’s different identities and responsibilities.
B. Miao’s pains during independent training.
C. Miao’s pressure of criticisms from his family.
D. Miao’s hardships of public opinion and expectations.
26. How does Miao promote triathlon in China?
A. By setting up the business sponsorship for athletes.
B. By asking clubs to promote the charm of triathlon.
C. By telling his stories to arouse people’s interest in triathlon.
D. By establishing youth teams and training younger athletes.
27. Which of the following words can best describe Miao?
A. Determined and hard - working.
B. Friendly and innovative.
C. Ambitious and enthusiastic.
D. Thoughtful and knowledgeable.
【答案】24. C 25. B 26. C 27. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了中国首位职业三项全能运动员苗浩的经历。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The government offered him a job as a civil servant. But Miao chose to pursue a career as a professional triathlete, giving up the stability of the former.(政府为他提供了一份公务员工作。但苗浩选择追求职业三项全能运动员的职业生涯,放弃了前者的稳定)”可知,苗浩为了成为职业三项全能运动员,拒绝了一份稳定的政府工作。故选C项。
【25题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“Going from a national team athlete to a professional has presented significant challenges for Miao. ‘In the national team, I had comprehensive support and was merely an athlete. Now, I am also a husband and a father, shouldering family responsibilities like dropping my son off at primary school before starting my training,’ he noted. Miao also faces financial pressure due to managing his own coaching, physiotherapists, nutritionists and support staff.(从国家队运动员转型为职业运动员给苗浩带来了巨大的挑战。他指出:‘在国家队时,我得到全面的支持,仅仅是一名运动员。现在,我还是一名丈夫和父亲,在开始训练前还要承担送儿子上小学等家庭责任。’由于要管理自己的教练、理疗师、营养师和支持人员,苗浩还面临着经济压力)”可知,该段主要讲了苗浩在独立训练过程中所承受的痛苦。故选B项。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“As the first professional triathlete in China, Miao is exploring future options for professional athletes. In addition to training, Miao shares his training and competition experiences through social media to attract more people to understand and participate in triathlon.(作为中国首位职业三项全能运动员,苗浩正在探索职业运动员的未来选择。除了训练,苗浩还通过社交媒体分享他的训练和比赛经历,以吸引更多人了解并参与三项全能运动)”可知,苗浩通过讲述自己的故事来激发人们对三项全能运动的兴趣,从而在中国推广这项运动。故选C项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“The government offered him a job as a civil servant. But Miao chose to pursue a career as a professional triathlete, giving up the stability of the former.(政府为他提供了一份公务员工作。但苗浩选择追求职业三项全能运动员的职业生涯,放弃了前者的稳定)”可知,苗浩有坚定的决心追求自己的职业梦想;再根据第四段中“As the first professional triathlete in China, Miao is exploring future options for professional athletes. In addition to training, Miao shares his training and competition experiences through social media to attract more people to understand and participate in triathlon. At the same time, he regularly communicates with various sports clubs to introduce the charm of triathlon.(作为中国首位职业三项全能运动员,苗浩正在探索职业运动员的未来选择。除了训练,苗浩还通过社交媒体分享他的训练和比赛经历,以吸引更多人了解并参与三项全能运动。同时,他定期与各种体育俱乐部交流,介绍三项全能运动的魅力)”可知,苗浩在训练之余还积极推广三项全能运动,十分勤奋努力。所以用“Determined and hard working(有决心且勤奋的)”来描述他最合适。故选A项。
C
Blue light glasses gained popularity over the past few years with the idea that they protect our eyes against screen usage, but a new analysis shows they might not be as beneficial to our eye health as previously hoped. Spectacles (眼镜) that are marketed to filter out blue light probably make no difference to eye tiredness caused by computer use or to sleep quality, according to a Cochrane review of 17 randomized controlled trials of the best available evidence so far. Nor did the review, led by authors from the University of Melbourne and published in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, find any evidence that blue-light filtering lenses (镜片) protect against damage to the retina (视网膜), the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye.
“We found there may be no short-term advantages with using blue-light filtering spectacle lenses to reduce visual fatigue associated with computer use, compared to non-blue-light filtering lenses,” said Laura Downie, senior author of the review and professor at the University of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, in a news release.
“It is also currently unclear whether these lenses affect vision quality or sleep - related outcomes, and no conclusion could be drawn about any potential effects on retinal health in the longer term.” she added. “People should be aware of the findings when deciding whether to purchase these spectacles. However, the quality and duration of the studies also need to be considered,” she said. “We performed the systematic review of Cochrane methodological standards to ensure the findings are robust (强有力的). However, our certainty in the reported findings is limited by the quality of the available evidence,” she added.
The studies they reviewed ranged in size and length, with a span from as few as five to as many as 156 participants assessed over different periods, from less than one day to five weeks. The authors said more research with longer follow-ups in more diverse populations is needed to better assess any potential effects. “More studies should examine whether effectiveness and safety outcomes vary between different groups of people and using different types of lenses,” author Dr. Sumeer Singh, a postdoctoral research fellow in the Downie Laboratory, advised for future research.
Instead of shelling out money for special shades, however, experts advise taking screen breaks.
28. What can we infer about blue light glasses?
A. It can greatly benefit our eye health like before.
B. It makes a big difference to eye strain or sleep quality.

【答案】28. C 29. B 30. D 31. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要客观介绍了防蓝光眼镜对眼睛健康的作用及研究情况。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“Blue light glasses gained popularity over the past few years with the idea that they protect our eyes against screen usage, but a new analysis shows they might not be as beneficial to our eye health as previously hoped. (过去几年,蓝光眼镜因宣称能保护眼睛免受屏幕伤害而流行,但一项新分析显示,其对眼健康的益处可能不如预期。)”可知,防蓝光眼镜被认为可以保护我们的眼睛免受屏幕使用的影响。故选C。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中“We found there may be no short-term advantages with using blue-light filtering spectacle lenses to reduce visual fatigue associated with computer use, compared to non-blue-light filtering lenses (我们发现,与非防蓝光镜片相比,使用防蓝光镜片来减少与电脑使用相关的视觉fatigue可能没有短期优势)”可知,此处指的是减少与电脑使用相关的视觉疲劳,因此fatigue意为“疲劳”,与exhaustion意思相近。故选B。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中““People should be aware of the findings when deciding whether to purchase these spectacles. However, the quality and duration of the studies also need to be considered,” she said. (“人们在决定是否购买这些眼镜时,应该了解这些发现。然而,研究的质量和持续时间也需要考虑,”她说)”可知,Laura Downie认为人们在购买这些眼镜之前应该三思而后行。故选D。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。 通读全文,尤其是根据第一段中“Nor did the review, led by authors from the University of Melbourne and published in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, find any evidence that blue-light filtering lenses (镜片) protect against damage to the retina (视网膜), the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye. (由墨尔本大学学者主导并发表在《考克兰系统评价数据库》的这项综述也未发现任何证据表明,蓝光过滤镜片能防止视网膜(眼睛后部的光敏组织)受损。)”可知,文章主要介绍了防蓝光眼镜对眼睛健康的作用及研究情况,因此D选项“The objective introduction to blue light glasses. (对防蓝光眼镜的客观介绍)”符合文章主旨。故选D。
D
University exams taken by fake students using artificial intelligence (AI) beat those by real students and usually went undetected by markers, in a limited study.
University of Reading researchers created 33 imaginary students and used AI tool to generate answers to module exams for an undergraduate psychology degree at the institution. They said the AI students’ results were half a grade boundary higher on average than those of their real-life counterparts (对应的人或物). And the AI essays “verged on being undetectable”, with 94% not raising concerns with markers.
The 6% detection rate is likely to be an overestimate, according to the study, published in the journal PLOS One. “This is particularly worrying because AI submissions firmly gained higher grades than real student submissions,” it said. “Thus, students could cheat undetected using AI and in doing so, attain a better grade than those who did not cheat.”
Associate Prof Peter Scarfe and Prof Etienne Roesch, who led the study, said their findings should be a “wake-call” for educators around the world. “Many institutions have moved away from traditional exams to make assessment more inclusive. Our research shows it is of international importance to understand how AI will affect the integrity of educational assessments. We don’t necessarily go back fully to handwritten exams but the global education sector will need to evolve in the face of AI.”
However, there’s also an interesting phenomenon. In the study, fake exam answers and essays were submitted for first-, second- and third- year modules, without the knowledge of those marking them. The scores by the AI students beat those achieved by the real undergraduates in the first two years. “But the humans scored better in the third-year exams, which is consistent with the idea that current AI struggles with more abstract reasoning,” the researchers said.
Academics have raised concerns about the influence of AI in education, with Glasgow University recently reintroducing in-person exams for one course. Earlier this year, a study had found 69% of undergraduates used artificial-intelligence programs to help with their essays, but just 5% admitted pasting unedited AI-generated text into their assessments.
32. Where is this text most likely from?
A. A students’ textbook.
B. An experiment report.
C. A psychology brochure.
D. A technology column.
33. What do Peter Scarfe and Etienne Roesch emphasize?
A. The links between handwritten exams and academic honesty.
B. The need to reconsider inclusivity of new assessments.
C. The significance for global exam reforms against AI cheats.
D. The criticism of broader evaluation methods.
34. What can be concluded from the study?
A. The study confirms the understanding of the imperfection of AI.
B. Scoring standards of different grades are different.
C. The potential for AI to be used for cheating is overestimated.
D. Higher-grade students need no AI restrictions.
35. What do the last paragraph’s figures indicate?
A. AI development outpaces educational adaptation.
B. Insufficient academic efforts go against AI issues.
C. Overuse of AI harms students’ skills.
D. Dishonesty about the AI usage has emerged.
【答案】32. D 33. C 34. A 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍一项关于 AI 代考大学生考试成绩超真实学生且难被发现的研究,及学者对 AI 影响教育评估的担忧与思考。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据首段“University exams taken by fake students using artificial intelligence (AI) beat those by real students and usually went undetected by markers, in a limited study. (在一项有限的研究中,使用人工智能的假学生参加的大学考试成绩超过了真实学生,而且通常没有被评分者发现。)”可知,文章围绕着使用人工智能的假学生参加的大学考试成绩超过了真实学生这一核心科技议题展开,结合“AI”“technology”等关键词可知,文章聚焦人工智能在教育领域的应用与挑战,属于科技类议题,结合选项,此类探讨技术对教育影响的文章最可能出自技术专栏。故选D项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Our research shows it is of international importance to understand how AI will affect the integrity of educational assessments. We don’t necessarily go back fully to handwritten exams but the global education sector will need to evolve in the face of AI.(我们的研究表明,了解人工智能将如何影响教育评估的完整性具有国际重要性。我们不一定完全回到手写考试,但全球教育部门需要在人工智能面前进行变革。)”可知,Peter Scarfe和Etienne Roesch强调全球开展应对AI作弊的考试改革的重要性。故选C项。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中的““But the humans scored better in the third-year exams, which is consistent with the idea that current AI struggles with more abstract reasoning,” the researchers said.(研究人员说:“但人类在三年级考试中得分更高,这与当前人工智能难以处理更抽象推理的观点一致。”)”可知,实验中第三年真实学生得分明显较好,这与先前关于人工智能在抽象推理方面存在不足的观点一致,即研究确认了对人工智能不完善的理解。故选A项。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Earlier this year, a study had found 69% of undergraduates used artificial-intelligence programs to help with their essays, but just 5% admitted pasting unedited AI-generated text into their assessments.(今年早些时候,一项研究发现,69% 的本科生使用人工智能程序辅助完成论文,但仅有 5% 的学生承认曾将未经编辑的人工智能生成文本直接粘贴到作业中。)”可知,多数学生使用AI却不愿承认,体现出在AI使用问题上的不诚实现象。故选D项。

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Faced with the bright lights and cameras, Tim stood nervously in the recording studio, his worn-out leather jacket sticking to his back under the extreme heat of twelve LED panels (LED显示屏) which were hanging from the ceiling. The cameras looked like some giant insects with glowing red eyes ready to attack, making him think of how he’d hidden behind amplifiers (扬声器) during their first bar performance in 2005. After twenty years of playing in local bars with his band, they finally got a chance to make their first music video for their breakthrough single in the studio.
The studio’s air conditioner buzzed like a swarm of bees and its cold linoleum (油毡) floor contrasted sharply with the sticky pub stages he’d known. A production assistant rushed past while carrying a clipboard (剪贴板), the environment making Tim nervous.
But as the director called “Action!”, Tim’s hands froze again, missing the opening part of the music. Three attempts were already ruined by his trembling hands. The wrong notes which sounded like metal echoed through the soundproofed (隔音的) walls, each failed attempt amplifying (放大) the shake in his hands. For twenty years, his guitar had sung through smoky pubs and rainy street performances, but now its strings felt slippery under his sweaty fingers. His fingers, once so confident on the guitar strings, now felt awkward and inflexible. He had never been good at performing for cameras, and age hadn’t made it any easier.
His bandmates exchanged concerned glances with each others. “Relax, let’s try again!” the director said with patience. Tim glanced at his bandmates, who had been through countless performances with him in the past twenty years. They gave him encouraging smiles, but he could feel his confidence slipping away. The guitar that had been his faithful companion for decades now felt like a stranger in his hands.

【答案】
Just as Tim was about to apologize and step away, one of the bandmates, the drummer Jack, walked over. Placing a hand on Tim’s shoulder, “Remember that night at Murphy’s Bar?” he said softly. “When your string broke mid-song, you kept playing and made it work.” The other band members all gathered around, sharing memories of their journey together. Twenty years of bar performances flashed through his mind — the great energy erupted by his fingers, the thunderous cheers from the audience, and midnight streetlights shining on his strings during final songs.
Surrounded by these familiar voices and stories, Tim felt something shift inside him. With his bandmates’ encouragement still ringing in his ears, Tim picked up the guitar again, his fingers instinctively finding the rhythm. The studio lights blurred into familiar bar spotlights, his calloused hands moving with decades-earned muscle memory. When he opened his eyes, the camera’s glare had transformed into the warm glow of shared passion. The final chord resonated through the studio, met with silent awe before erupting into back-slaps and tearful embraces.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,主要讲述了Tim在录制音乐视频时因紧张而表现不佳,在乐队成员的鼓励和回忆启发下重拾信心的故事。通过团队的支持与个人的努力,最终成功完成录制。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“就在Tim准备道歉并退出的时候,他的乐队伙伴,鼓手Jack走了过来。”可知,第一段可描写Jack如何通过回忆过去的一次成功表演来激励Tim,以及其他乐队成员如何加入进来分享更多鼓舞人心的故事。
②由第二段首句内容“被这些熟悉的声音和故事所包围,Tim内心感受到了变化。”可知,第二段可描写Tim受到鼓舞后重新振作起来,找回了演奏的感觉,并且成功完成了音乐视频的录制,以及这一过程对他的重要意义。
2.续写线索:Tim感到紧张——Jack走过来安慰他——回忆过去的辉煌时刻——Tim内心的变化——重新找回自信——顺利完成视频录制
