The course will cover the following topics: * Introduction to the bee colony and bee products. * Types of hive (蜂房), equipment, record keeping. * Basic hive inspection. * Pests & diseases. * Taking off honey, clearing bees from supers. There is also a mix of class room instruction and apiary (养蜂场) work with the bees. You will be provided with protective bee suits and gloves for the session with the bees.

Getting there It is just off the A470 on the Bodnant Estate in the Conwy Valley and 10 minutes from the A55 north Wales coast road. Follow the brown signs just after Bodnant Gardens. Value for money? Yes. It’s not cheap but it’s a special experience that easily fills a day. Adults £14, children 5-17 £6.50, under-4s free, family £38 (two adults and two children) or £25 (one adult and three children). Opening hours Visitor Centre opens daily from but it is volunteer-run so phone ahead to check. 1. What do we know about the National Beekeeping Centre? A. It is under climate threat. B. It has a history of 4,000 years. C. It runs a free beekeeping course. D. It connects visitors with ecology. 2. What might attract an attendee to the beekeeping course? A. A taste of bee honey. B. A hands-on apiary session. C. A free packed lunch. D. A beekeeping business plan. 3. How much do a couple with their 11-year-old twin boys pay for admission and the beekeeping course? A. £85. B. £92.5. C. £96. D. £99 B Architecture is amazing. It has changed the way I look and interact with the world and my environment. It has trained me to be hyper-sensitive (过度敏感) to the built environment, to recognize problems and find solutions that an untrained eye would never notice. As much as I love this profession, it is very easy to get lost in architecture. I get so focused that I have forgotten about everything else. Luckily my passion for cycling kept me sane (清醒的) while I was becoming an architect. I faced a lot of obstacles and challenges taking a bicycle ride across the United States. Looking back, cycling across the America was actually one of the smartest things I ever did. I have actually bicycled across the continental USA twice; East to west. Atlantic Ocean to Pacific Ocean, both times. Bicycling across America isn’t as hard as you think. I rode alone on my first trip in 2005 from Virginia Beach to the coast of Florence, Oregon. In the end it was 4,547 miles over the course of 77 days. I left for the second trip in 2007 with my two best friends from Bar Harbor, Maine to Portland, Oregon, which was a 4,886 mile ride over 90 days. At that time, I fell in love with the idea of leaving the east coast behind, starting a whole new life and career in a new city. I ended up in Portland. After arriving in town on a bike, I eventually found a job, a place to live and an amazing dog. I share all this not to convince anyone to go biking across America, but only to share how doing this has changed my life. Architecture has given me a wonderful life and career but it isn’t everything. Thankfully I have also been very passionate about: my friends, traveling, bicycles, punk rock, technology, the internet, my dog, and even yoga. My architecture background has definitely sweetened my relationship with all those things. Becoming an architect is a noble pursuit, but you should keep pursuing everything else that you are passionate about. It will enhance your architecture career and ultimately make you a more interesting person, which in my opinion is really more important than being another silly architect. 4. What’s the advantage of cycling according to the author? A. Changing his negative attitude to architecture. B. Keeping himself focused on his career all the time. C. Enabling him to find solutions without training. D. Making him a much better architect and person. 5. What does the author think of his two cross-country bike trips? A. They are harder than what he expected before. B. They show the benefits of riding with friends. C. They give him some extraordinary experiences. D. They guarantee him a new life and career in Portland. 6. What can be inferred from Paragraph 6? A. Don’t get completely lost in your hobbies. B. Don’t abandon hobbies for your profession. C. Don’t feel ashamed of stopping your hobbies. D. Don’t weigh your family against your profession. 7. In the last paragraph, the author reminds us to ________. A. take up the pursuit of becoming an architect B. find what we are really passionate about C. appreciate other people’s good intentions D. avoid our career taking over other pursuits C Go to any movie theater or sports venue, and it’s obvious there’s an invisible bond that forms from laughing, crying, and simply feeling while brushing shoulders with others. Researches have long backed up this sense of connection, but some aspects of the phenomenon remained unclear. Now, a new study is offering insight. Writing in the journal Royal Society Open Science, Victor Chung of the École Normale Supérieure in France and his team reported how they examined the matter by inviting strangers to watch videos together in same sex pairs. Pairs of strangers watched three types of videos together: positive, negative, and neutral (中性的) with a curtain between them that was either open or closed. At the start of the experiment the researchers asked each participant whether they’d like to meet the other member of their pair again. After watching each video, participants reported their emotions and feelings of connectedness, and after seeing all three videos they were asked once again about their feelings towards the other participant. The results showed the emotional films generated stronger responses than the neutral film. Crucially, the team said participants’ feelings of connectedness within the pairs was boosted when they experienced more intense emotions. However, this was only the case when participants watched the films with the curtain between them open. The researchers said that whether or not the pairs could see each other had no impact on how positively or negatively they felt about the films. “We found that silently watching emotional films together with another individual is associated with social bonding, even when this person is a stranger and without any verbal (口头的) communication,” said Chung, the study author. The team added that the findings may help explain why people seek out group activities that generate strong emotions, “even participating in sad memorials that cause negative emotions.” In other words, because emotion bonds us, and humans have a fundamental desire to belong, we’re up for experiences one might think we’d naturally want to avoid. 8. What does “the phenomenon” in paragraph 1 refer to? A. Shared emotions bond people. B. Physical touch helps tackle stress. C. A chance encounter leads to a friendship. D. Entertainment is a crucial part of human life. 9. How did the researchers get their findings? A. By analyzing participants’ emotions. B. By comparing participants’ self-reports. C. By documenting participants’ video responses. D. By stimulating participants’ desire for interaction. 10. The study found that strong bonds were indeed created between pairs only when ______. A. they were familiar with each other B. they watched neutral films together C. they were aware of the presence of each other D. they could see each other while watching the films 11. What is presented in the last paragraph of the text? A. An interpretation of the findings. B. Potential implication of the findings. C. Supporting evidence for the findings. D. The underlying logic behind the findings. D Powered by the enthusiasm of fans, many stars are emphasizing sustainability in their tours and live events. In many parts of the world, summer calendars are packed with music festivals. But on 25 August, Act 1.5, one of such shows, tried to be something different. Advertised as a “climate action accelerator (加速器)”, it showed the cooperation between a band called Massive Attack and scientists at the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research at the University of Manchester, UK, to reduce carbon emissions (排放) in the live music industry. Such efforts are much needed. In 2010, researchers estimated that the UK music industry produced some 540, 000 tonnes of greenhouse-gas emissions annually. Live music accounted for 74%of that. Those figures are likely to have risen. Many in the music industry are advocating ever more loudly on sustainability. Radiohead, Coldplay, and Billie Eilish are just some of the famous Western stars who have declared initiatives to make live events more sustainable. These initiatives have not always met with the approval of climate campaigners. One common criticism is that stars’ advocacy often focuses on the actions of individual fans. When it comes to high-energy aspects of touring, such as stage power requirements and artists’ travel, their preferred solution is often to find alternative ways to cancel out impact, rather than reducing emissions directly. However, it is heartening to see that some real change has already been achieved. In 2023, for the first time, the long-running Glastonbury Festival in the United Kingdom was powered only by fossil-fuel-free (非化石燃料) energy. In June 2024, Coldplay announced that direct emissions from its current world tour were almost 60%lower than those of its 2016-17 stadium tour. Historically, music has played a key part in social movements. The industry now has the chance to be a role model for real change. A 2022 report by researchers at the University of Glasgow, UK, found that music fans are more likely to care about climate change than non-music fans. So, the change will come when it is driven by those highest up in the music industry and backed by good science. 12. What makes the Act 1.5 music event special? A. Demonstrating a different musical style. B. Promoting the cooperation between bands. C. Funding scientific research on climate. D. Taking green actions based on science. 13. What is the purpose of listing data in the third paragraph? A. To highlight the UK music industry’s success. B. To indicate the challenges in the UK music industry. C. To criticize the rising costs of the UK music festivals. D. To stress the emission impact of the UK music industry. 14. Why do climate campaigners sometimes disapprove of stars’ advocacy? A. It emphasizes reducing artists’ travel emission. B. It focuses on fans cutting down emissions. C. It prefers to use fossil-fuel-free energy. D. It ignores the action of individual fans. 15. What is the author’s attitude to the music industry addressing climate issues? A. Doubtful. B. Negative. C. Positive. D. Critical. 第二节 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。(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) In modern society, many retired people are lonely and lack life purpose while many young people have their own problems. ___16___ Or they may wish to live independently but be unable to pay the high rents in their area. ___17___ It involves bringing older and younger people together to support each other.

Among the lively atmosphere, Wanda Petronski, a poor Polish girl, with her unruly hair and a faded blue dress that showed signs of frequent wear, became the target of cruel jokes among her classmates. Each morning, as Wanda stepped into the classroom, a sudden silence would fall over the room. The abrupt silence was soon replaced by whispers and laughter. “Look, there’s Wanda,” Peggy would whisper to her friend Maggie, her eyes shining with mischief. Peggy, the most popular girl in class, was well-known for her sharp tongue and a good sense of fashion. Driven by a mix of boredom and meanness (恶意), she would call out, “How many dresses do you have now, Wanda?” Her voice was filled with pretended curiosity. Wanda would hesitate, her fingers nervously twisting her dress. “A hundred,” she would reply in a soft murmur; her voice was barely heard. Instantly, the classroom would erupt in laughter. “A hundred!” Peggy would shout, her laughter echoing through the room. “I bet they’re all made of paper!” The other students would join in, their cruel laughter filling the air. Wanda’s face would redden with awkward, and she would quickly lower her head, unable to meet anyone’s eyes. Miss Mason, their teacher, often tried to intervene. “That’s enough, class. Let’s start the lesson,” she would say firmly, attempting to restore order. But the damage had been done. Day after day, Peggy and her group of friends continued to make fun of Wanda, asking about her “hundred dresses” and making ill remarks about her plain clothes. One day, Miss Mason announced an exciting drawing contest. The theme was “Design a Dress,” and the winning entries would be displayed in the school hall. Peggy, confident in her artistic abilities, was determined to claim victory. 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。 A few days later, Miss Mason announced the result and everyone was shocked. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Feeling a strong sense of guilt, Peggy and Maggie went to Wanda’s house with the good news. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 扬州市新华中学高二年级第二学期 第二阶段练习英语试卷 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) 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，你都有十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.

I share all this not to convince anyone to go biking across America, but only to share how doing this has changed my life. Architecture has given me a wonderful life and career but it isn’t everything. Thankfully I have also been very passionate about: my friends, traveling, bicycles, punk rock, technology, the internet, my dog, and even yoga. My architecture background has definitely sweetened my relationship with all those things. Becoming an architect is a noble pursuit, but you should keep pursuing everything else that you are passionate about. It will enhance your architecture career and ultimately make you a more interesting person, which in my opinion is really more important than being another silly architect. 4. What’s the advantage of cycling according to the author? A. Changing his negative attitude to architecture. B. Keeping himself focused on his career all the time. C. Enabling him to find solutions without training. D. Making him a much better architect and person. 5. What does the author think of his two cross-country bike trips? A. They are harder than what he expected before. B. They show the benefits of riding with friends. C. They give him some extraordinary experiences. D.

Don’t feel ashamed of stopping your hobbies. D. Don’t weigh your family against your profession. 7. In the last paragraph, the author reminds us to ________. A. take up the pursuit of becoming an architect B. find what we are really passionate about C. appreciate other people’s good intentions D. avoid our career taking over other pursuits 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章通过讲述骑车给作者带来的改变和非凡体验告诉我们，不能因为事业放弃了生活中的其他追求。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的“Luckily my passion for cycling kept me sane (清醒的) while I was becoming an architect. （幸运的是，我对骑自行车的热情让我在成为一名建筑师时保持清醒）”和最后一段的“It will enhance your architecture career and ultimately make you a more interesting person, which in my opinion is really more important than being another silly architect.（这将提升你的建筑事业，最终让你成为一个更有趣的人，在我看来，这真的比成为一个愚蠢的建筑师更重要）”可知，作者认为骑自行车让他成为了一个更好的建筑师和人。故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三到第六段作者两次骑车穿越美国的讲述可知，骑车让作者做了自己喜欢的事情，如交友、旅行，收获了意外的惊喜，如在新城市找到新工作，从这些可以看出骑车穿越美国的旅行给了作者一些非凡的体验。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段的“Architecture has given me a wonderful life and career but it isn’t everything. Thankfully I have also been very passionate about: my friends, traveling, bicycles, punk rock, technology, the internet, my dog, and even yoga. My architecture background has definitely sweetened my relationship with all those things.（建筑给了我美好的生活和事业，但它不是一切。谢天谢地，我也非常热爱：我的朋友、旅游、自行车、朋克摇滚、科技、互联网、我的狗，甚至瑜伽。我的建筑背景无疑让我与所有这些东西的关系更加融洽）”可知，职业并非生活中的一切，业余爱好让作者的生活更加和谐。由此推知，我们不能因为职业而放弃自己的业余爱好。故选B。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段的“Becoming an architect is a noble pursuit, but you should keep pursuing everything else that you are passionate about.

Researches have long backed up this sense of connection, but some aspects of the phenomenon remained unclear. Now, a new study is offering insight. Writing in the journal Royal Society Open Science, Victor Chung of the École Normale Supérieure in France and his team reported how they examined the matter by inviting strangers to watch videos together in same sex pairs. Pairs of strangers watched three types of videos together: positive, negative, and neutral (中性的) with a curtain between them that was either open or closed. At the start of the experiment the researchers asked each participant whether they’d like to meet the other member of their pair again. After watching each video, participants reported their emotions and feelings of connectedness, and after seeing all three videos they were asked once again about their feelings towards the other participant. The results showed the emotional films generated stronger responses than the neutral film. Crucially, the team said participants’ feelings of connectedness within the pairs was boosted when they experienced more intense emotions. However, this was only the case when participants watched the films with the curtain between them open. The researchers said that whether or not the pairs could see each other had no impact on how positively or negatively they felt about the films. “We found that silently watching emotional films together with another individual is associated with social bonding, even when this person is a stranger and without any verbal (口头的) communication,” said Chung, the study author. The team added that the findings may help explain why people seek out group activities that generate strong emotions, “even participating in sad memorials that cause negative emotions.” In other words, because emotion bonds us, and humans have a fundamental desire to belong, we’re up for experiences one might think we’d naturally want to avoid. 8. What does “the phenomenon” in paragraph 1 refer to? A. Shared emotions bond people. B. Physical touch helps tackle stress. C. A chance encounter leads to a friendship. D. Entertainment is a crucial part of human life. 9. How did the researchers get their findings? A. By analyzing participants’ emotions. B. By comparing participants’ self-reports. C. By documenting participants’ video responses. D. By stimulating participants’ desire for interaction. 10. The study found that strong bonds were indeed created between pairs only when ______. A. they were familiar with each other B. they watched neutral films together C. they were aware of the presence of each other D. they could see each other while watching the films 11. What is presented in the last paragraph of the text? A. An interpretation of the findings. B. Potential implication of the findings. C. Supporting evidence for the findings. D. The underlying logic behind the findings. 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要探讨了共同观看情感视频如何促进陌生人之间的社会联系。研究通过实验发现，当陌生人一起观看情感视频并能够看到彼此时，他们的联系感会增强。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第一段中“Go to any movie theater or sports venue, and it’s obvious there’s an invisible bond that forms from laughing, crying, and simply feeling while brushing shoulders with others.(去任何电影院或体育场馆，很明显，通过与他人一起笑、哭和感受，会形成一种无形的联系。)”可推知“the phenomenon”指的是上文提到的“共享情感会联系人们”。故选A。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段中“After watching each video, participants reported their emotions and feelings of connectedness, and after seeing all three videos they were asked once again about their feelings towards the other participant.(观看每个视频后，参与者报告了他们的情绪和联系感，看完所有三个视频后，他们再次被问及对另一位参与者的感受。)”可推知，研究人员通过比较参与者的自我报告得出研究结果。故选B。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段中“Crucially, the team said participants’ feelings of connectedness within the pairs was boosted when they experienced more intense emotions. However, this was only the case when participants watched the films with the curtain between them open.(关键的是，研究团队表示，当参与者经历更强烈的情感时，他们之间的联系感会增强。然而，这种情况仅发生在参与者拉开窗帘观看电影时。)”可知，他们在看电影时可以互相看到对方。故选D。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段中“The team added that the findings may help explain why people seek out group activities that generate strong emotions, ‘even participating in sad memorials that cause negative emotions.’(研究团队补充说，这些发现可能有助于解释为什么人们会寻求产生强烈情感的群体活动，“甚至参加引发负面情绪的悲伤纪念活动”。)”可知，最后一段提出了研究结果的潜在意义。故选B。 D Powered by the enthusiasm of fans, many stars are emphasizing sustainability in their tours and live events. In many parts of the world, summer calendars are packed with music festivals. But on 25 August, Act 1.5, one of such shows, tried to be something different. Advertised as a “climate action accelerator (加速器)”, it showed the cooperation between a band called Massive Attack and scientists at the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research at the University of Manchester, UK, to reduce carbon emissions (排放) in the live music industry. Such efforts are much needed. In 2010, researchers estimated that the UK music industry produced some 540, 000 tonnes of greenhouse-gas emissions annually. Live music accounted for 74%of that. Those figures are likely to have risen. Many in the music industry are advocating ever more loudly on sustainability. Radiohead, Coldplay, and Billie Eilish are just some of the famous Western stars who have declared initiatives to make live events more sustainable. These initiatives have not always met with the approval of climate campaigners. One common criticism is that stars’ advocacy often focuses on the actions of individual fans. When it comes to high-energy aspects of touring, such as stage power requirements and artists’ travel, their preferred solution is often to find alternative ways to cancel out impact, rather than reducing emissions directly. However, it is heartening to see that some real change has already been achieved. In 2023, for the first time, the long-running Glastonbury Festival in the United Kingdom was powered only by fossil-fuel-free (非化石燃料) energy. In June 2024, Coldplay announced that direct emissions from its current world tour were almost 60%lower than those of its 2016-17 stadium tour. Historically, music has played a key part in social movements. The industry now has the chance to be a role model for real change. A 2022 report by researchers at the University of Glasgow, UK, found that music fans are more likely to care about climate change than non-music fans. So, the change will come when it is driven by those highest up in the music industry and backed by good science. 12. What makes the Act 1.5 music event special? A. Demonstrating a different musical style. B. Promoting the cooperation between bands. C. Funding scientific research on climate. D. Taking green actions based on science. 13. What is the purpose of listing data in the third paragraph? A. To highlight the UK music industry’s success. B. To indicate the challenges in the UK music industry. C. To criticize the rising costs of the UK music festivals. D. To stress the emission impact of the UK music industry. 14. Why do climate campaigners sometimes disapprove of stars’ advocacy? A. It emphasizes reducing artists’ travel emission. B. It focuses on fans cutting down emissions. C. It prefers to use fossil-fuel-free energy. D. It ignores the action of individual fans. 15. What is the author’s attitude to the music industry addressing climate issues? A. Doubtful. B. Negative. C. Positive. D. Critical. 【答案】12. D 13. D 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了音乐行业在可持续性方面的努力和变革。文章还提到了音乐行业在倡导可持续性方面所面临的批评和挑战，以及已经取得的一些实际成果。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“But on 25 August, Act 1.5, one of such shows, tried to be something different. Advertised as a “climate action accelerator(加速器)”, it showed the cooperation between a band called Massive Attack and scientists at the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research at the University of Manchester, UK, to reduce carbon emissions(排放)in the live music industry.(但在8月25日，名为“Act 1.5”的演出尝试做出一些不同的改变。这场演出被宣传为一个“气候行动加速器”，它展示了一个名为“大规模攻击”的乐队与英国曼彻斯特大学气候变化研究廷德尔中心的科学家之间的合作，目的是减少现场音乐行业的碳排放。)”可知，让Act 1.5音乐活动特别的是基于科学采取绿色行动。故选D。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Such efforts are much needed. In 2010, researchers estimated that the UK music industry produced some 540, 000 tonnes of greenhouse-gas emissions annually. Live music accounted for 74%of that. Those figures are likely to have risen.(这样的努力是非常有必要的。2010年，研究人员估计英国音乐行业每年产生约54万吨的温室气体排放。现场音乐占其中的74%。这些数字很可能已经上升了。)”可知，数据表明英国音乐产业的温室气体排放量较大，强调了其排放影响。因此，第三段列举数据的目的是强调英国音乐产业的排放影响。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第五段“One common criticism is that stars’ advocacy often focuses on the actions of individual fans. When it comes to high-energy aspects of touring, such as stage power requirements and artists’ travel, their preferred solution is often to find alternative ways to cancel out impact, rather than reducing emissions directly.(一个常见的批评是，明星们的倡导往往集中在个体粉丝的行动上。当涉及到巡演中高能耗的方面，比如舞台电力需求和艺人的出行时，他们偏爱的解决方案往往是寻找替代方式来抵消影响，而不是直接减少排放。)”可知，气候活动家对明星倡导的一个常见批评是，明星们的倡导往往侧重于个体粉丝的行动。当涉及到巡演中高能耗方面（如舞台电力需求和艺人出行）时，他们偏爱的解决方案往往是寻找替代方式来抵消影响，而不是直接减少排放。因此，气候活动家有时不赞成明星的倡导是因为它侧重于粉丝减少排放。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“However, it is heartening to see that some real change has already been achieved. In 2023, for the first time, the long-running Glastonbury Festival in the United Kingdom was powered only by fossil-fuel-free(非化石燃料)energy. In June 2024, Coldplay announced that direct emissions from its current world tour were almost 60%lower than those of its 2016-17 stadium tour.(然而，令人欣慰的是，一些切实的改变已经实现了。2023年，英国历史悠久的格拉斯顿伯里音乐节首次完全使用无化石燃料能源来供电。2024年6月，酷玩乐队宣布其当前世界巡演的直接排放量比2016-2017年的体育场巡演低了近60%。)”可知，作者用“heartening”来形容看到的一些切实的改变，并且列举了英国格拉斯顿伯里音乐节使用无化石燃料能源以及酷玩乐队巡演排放量降低等积极的例子。所以，作者对音乐行业解决气候问题的态度是积极的。故选C。 第二节 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。(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) In modern society, many retired people are lonely and lack life purpose while many young people have their own problems. ___16___ Or they may wish to live independently but be unable to pay the high rents in their area. ___17___ It involves bringing older and younger people together to support each other.

Among the lively atmosphere, Wanda Petronski, a poor Polish girl, with her unruly hair and a faded blue dress that showed signs of frequent wear, became the target of cruel jokes among her classmates. Each morning, as Wanda stepped into the classroom, a sudden silence would fall over the room. The abrupt silence was soon replaced by whispers and laughter. “Look, there’s Wanda,” Peggy would whisper to her friend Maggie, her eyes shining with mischief. Peggy, the most popular girl in class, was well-known for her sharp tongue and a good sense of fashion. Driven by a mix of boredom and meanness (恶意), she would call out, “How many dresses do you have now, Wanda?” Her voice was filled with pretended curiosity. Wanda would hesitate, her fingers nervously twisting her dress. “A hundred,” she would reply in a soft murmur; her voice was barely heard. Instantly, the classroom would erupt in laughter. “A hundred!” Peggy would shout, her laughter echoing through the room. “I bet they’re all made of paper!” The other students would join in, their cruel laughter filling the air. Wanda’s face would redden with awkward, and she would quickly lower her head, unable to meet anyone’s eyes. Miss Mason, their teacher, often tried to intervene. “That’s enough, class. Let’s start the lesson,” she would say firmly, attempting to restore order. But the damage had been done. Day after day, Peggy and her group of friends continued to make fun of Wanda, asking about her “hundred dresses” and making ill remarks about her plain clothes. One day, Miss Mason announced an exciting drawing contest. The theme was “Design a Dress,” and the winning entries would be displayed in the school hall. Peggy, confident in her artistic abilities, was determined to claim victory. 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。 A few days later, Miss Mason announced the result and everyone was shocked. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Feeling a strong sense of guilt, Peggy and Maggie went to Wanda’s house with the good news. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 A few days later, Miss Mason announced the result and everyone was shocked. Wanda won the first prize, for she had submitted 100 exquisite, uniquely detailed fashion design drawings. Each drawing was a masterpiece, featuring elaborate patterns and vivid colors that far exceeded the simple sketches of the other students. Peggy and the class stared in disbelief at the beautiful display of Wanda’s talent. But Wanda wasn’t there to see her triumph. She had been absent for days, likely due to classmates’ constant bad behavior. The classroom was filled with an awkward silence as the students realized how wrong they had been to laugh at her. Feeling a strong sense of guilt, Peggy and Maggie went to Wanda’s house with the good news. When they arrived, Wanda seemed surprised to see them. Peggy, her voice filled with regret, said, “Wanda, your drawings won! They’re amazing. We’re so sorry for being mean.” Maggie nodded in agreement. Wanda smiled gently and said, “It’s okay.” She then offered to give Peggy and Maggie some of her drawings. “I want you to have them,” she said. Her kindness touched their hearts. From that day on, Peggy and Maggie learned the importance of kindness and never judged others by their appearance again. Whenever anyone walked through the school hall and saw Wanda’s beautiful drawings, they were reminded of the power of forgiveness and the impact that a single act of kindness could have. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了在Benton学校里，波兰贫困女孩Wanda因衣着朴素而遭受同学嘲笑，但最终凭借自己的绘画才华赢得绘画比赛并赢得同学们尊重与歉意的故事，传达了不应以貌取人、应尊重他人、善良与宽容的力量等深刻道理。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“几天后，Mason小姐公布了比赛结果，所有人都震惊了。”以及第二段首句内容“Peggy和Maggie深感愧疚，带着这个好消息去了Wanda家。”可知，第一段可描写Wanda获得了一等奖，她提交了100副作品，但是Wanda因为同学们的嘲笑已经几天没有上学了。 ②由第二段首句内容“Peggy和Maggie深感愧疚，带着这个好消息去了Wanda家。”可知，第二段可描写两人诚挚地向Wanda道了歉，也明白了善良的重要性。 2.续写线索：几天后，Mason小姐公布了比赛结果，所有人都震惊了——Wanda获得了一等奖，因为她提交了100副作品——每一幅作品都是杰作——但是Wanda却因为同学们的嘲笑几天没有来上学——所有人都陷入了沉默——Peggy和Maggie深感愧疚，带着这个好消息去了Wanda家——她们告诉了Wanda这个好消息，并向Wanda道歉——从那天开始，两人明白了善良的重要性 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①充满了：be filled with/ be full of ②明白：realize/come to know ③打动：touch/ move/strike 情绪类 ①尴尬的：awkward/ embarrassing ②惊讶的：surprised/ astonished 【点睛】【高分句型1】Each drawing was a masterpiece, featuring elaborate patterns and vivid colors that far exceeded the simple sketches of the other students.（运用了that引导的定语从句） 【高分句型2】The classroom was filled with an awkward silence as the students realized how wrong they had been to laugh at her.（运用了as引导的状语从句和how引导的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
