Gunter used to teach at a university with a master’s degree. In my country, for career advancement, it is better to have a PhD. Gunter used to go to the professor in charge of scholarships and ask him for scholarships, but the professor would tell him that they had none to give him. One day, Gunter was driving back from the university and on the side of the road he saw that the professor got into an accident with another car. Gunter went down to see if he could help the professor. The professor was warning the guy who he got into an accident with, that if the guy didn’t compensate (赔偿) him for the accident, then the professor was going to call the police. Not a nice thing at all from the professor. Gunter went and talked to the guy and the guy told him that he didn’t have money to pay the professor. Gunter went to the professor and paid him the amount, not telling the professor that he was the one who paid it. Gunter didn’t have any money left when he got home that day. The situation was resolved and everyone went home. The next day, the professor called Gunter to his office and told him that there was a scholarship with a deadline that same day that he should apply for. Gunter did and ended up going to one of the best universities in Sweden. To this day, Gunter never revealed to the professor that he was the one who paid for the accident. I love how my friend did this act anonymously (不留名地) and I am so grateful that the universe rewarded him in a way that changed his life. 4. Why did Gunter apply for scholarships? A. To buy some teaching materials. B. To catch the chance of promotion. C. To enhance his career prospects. D. To obtain a good academic reputation. 5. What did Gunter do after he saw the accident? A. He reminded the guy once more. B. He paid for the guy silently. C. He immediately called the police. D. He repaired the professor’s car. 6. What can be learned from the last paragraph? A. Gunter eventually realized his dream. B. Gunter failed to get the scholarship in the end. C. The professor flied to Sweden for vacation. D. The professor gave the money back afterwards 7. Which of the following best describes Gunter? A. Tricky and intelligent. B. Rude and selfish. C. Strict and hardworking. D. Caring and ambitious C At the top of a hill in England’s Peak District, life coach Zaidha leads a mindfulness exercise during a hike, encouraging the participants to engage their senses — observing sights, structures, and sounds in nature. This activity is part of a retreat (静修活动) organized by Mind Over Mountains, which combines guided outdoor adventures with mental health support. Mind Over Mountains addresses a critical gap in traditional mental wellness offerings by encouraging open discussions about depression and anxiety in a natural setting. Unlike conventional self-care activities, these retreats prioritize emotional openness, encouraging the participants to share their feelings and experiences. Wellness coach Rob shares his own struggles, setting a mature model of emotional openness. The participants, initially hesitant, later express relief at the supportive environment. Research confirms that nature immersion (沉浸) reduces anxiety and depression, a benefit agreed by attendees, who describe their 2022 retreat as life-changing. Another organization that has recognized the nature’s therapeutic (治疗的) power is Blackdog Outdoors, founded by Andy Higson. His organization removes common impediments — such as cost and lack of experience — by offering free hikes and low-cost training. Though not therapy meetings, the events, led by outdoor experts and mental health first-aiders, help reduce anxiety and depression and rebuild confidence. Surveys show over 90% of the participants experience lasting mental health improvements. Ruth Israel, one of Mind Over Mountains attendee, credits the retreat in nature with sparking personal growth and self-acceptance. Even challenging weather — like cold rain — becomes part of the healing process, teaching recovery and teamwork. These innovative retreats not only provide a unique approach to mental health support but highlight the importance of nature and community in the healing process. By combining natural immersion with suitable guidance, they offer a powerful treatment method for anxiety and depression, reminding participants of their place in a larger, healing the world. 8. What can we know about Mind Over Mountains? A. It is a traditional wellness program. B. It integrates nature with mental health. C It offers health advice for adventures. D. It is a well-known mental health clinic. 9. What is a key difference between the retreats and traditional self-care activities? A The retreats focus more on physical fitness. B. Traditional self-care activities discourage sharing. C. Traditional self-care activities are less effective. D. The retreats emphasize emotional openness. 10. What does the underlined word “impediments” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Barriers. B. Conflicts. C. Principles. D. Alarms. 11. Why does the author mention cold rain in the last paragraph? A. To describe the challenging conditions the participants face. B. To illustrate the challenges of mental health recovery. C. To highlight the role of nature in the healing process. D. To emphasize the effectiveness of the innovative retreats. D Scientists in Australia have used artificial intelligence (AI) to locate a rare bird called the Plains-wanderer that lives in Australia’s grasslands. The species is now endangered, with its population having declined by over 85%in recent decades as grasslands have been turned into farms and cities. Scientists estimate that only 250 to 1, 000 of these birds remain in the wild. This bird is often called the Goldilocks of animals because it is very particular about its habitat. There can’t be too much grass or too little. The birds are only about 15 centimeters tall, and are not good at flying, so they spend most of their time on the ground. The females are larger and in charge of protecting the territory, while the males take care of the eggs. They are generally brown and white, with yellow legs and beaks. Since the birds are hard to spot, scientists planned to locate the birds by “listening” for the birds instead. Scientists set up 35 special recording devices in nine different grassy areas where Plains-wanderers could possibly have been. The devices collected tens of thousands of hours of recordings-far more than humans could analyze. So scientists fed the recordings to an AI system trained to identify the calls of Plains-wanderers. The AI system discovered Plains-wanderer calls coming from two of the sites. The scientists double-checked and found that the AI system was correct. This is the first time in over 30 years that the Plains-wanderer has been found in the west of Melbourne. Chris Hartnett, the leader of the research, described the discovery as “huge”, comparing it to “finding gold”. Scientists plan to work with the land owners to help protect the birds’ safety and preserve the grasslands they depend on. And the scientists are still “Listening”-using song meters and AI to try to locate more of these birds, hoping to gain a better understanding of their population and distribution. 12. What has led to the sharp decrease in the number of Plains-wanderer? A. Competition for food. B. Habitat loss. C. Natural disasters. D. Illegal hunting. 13. What is the author’s purpose in writing paragraph 2? A. To describe the appearance of the bird. B. To note why the bird is called Goldilocks. C. To discuss the bird’s habitat requirements. D. To show the bird’s unique characteristics. 14. What can we infer about the birds from the last paragraph? A. Their protection manages well. B. They are content with their habitat. C. Their population is still unclear. D. They have adapted to human activities. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. Adopt AI to Track Down Endangered Bird B. The Role of AI in Wildlife Conservation C. The Challenges of Protecting Endangered Bird D. Use AI to Analyze Endangered Species 第二节(共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 One of the most effective ways to prepare for exams is to create a study plan. ____16____.

Known for his friendly nature and willingness to help, Alex was always eager to make new friends. However, when a new student named Sam joined the class, Alex found himself facing a challenge he had never encountered before. Sam was a quiet boy who always seemed unhappy. He never joined in the games during break and rarely spoke to anyone. Alex wanted to help, but he didn’t know where to start. Determined to help Sam, Alex decided to seek advice from their teacher, Mr Smith. After class, Alex approached Mr Smith and said, “Mr Smith, I’ve been trying to befriend Sam, but I don’t know how to reach him. He always seems so sad and distant.” Mr Smith listened thoughtfully and then shared a story with Alex. “Once, there was a strong iron rod (棒) and a small key,” Mr Smith began. “The iron rod, no matter how hard it tried, couldn’t open a strong lock. But the small key, with just a gentle turn, unlocked it. Sometimes, understanding someone’s heart is more important than trying to fix everything.” Alex listened carefully, feeling a spark of hope. He realized that he needed to understand Sam better. He decided to find out why Sam was so unhappy. After school, he followed Sam from a distance, making sure not to be noticed. For several days, he observed Sam’s routine, trying to figure out what was troubling him. One afternoon, Alex saw Sam walking home alone, looking particularly sad. He followed him to a small park where Sam sat on a bench, staring at the ground. Alex approached cautiously and sat down next to him. “Hey, Sam,” he said softly. “Why don’t you ever play with us?” Sam looked up, surprised. “I just moved here,” he whispered. “I left my old friends and relatives behind. I miss them a lot, and I don’t know how to make new friends here.” Alex felt a wave of empathy. “I understand, Sam,” Alex said gently. “Moving to a new place can be really hard. Sometimes, making new friends can be tough, but it’s worth trying. You’re not alone.” 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。 Over the next few days, Alex purposely included Sam in his activities. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Slowly, Sam began to open up. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 高二英语考试卷 注意事项： 1. 答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号、考场号、座位号填写在答题卡上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节(共5小题；每小题1. 5分，满分7. 5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 例：How much is the shirt?

Gunter used to go to the professor in charge of scholarships and ask him for scholarships, but the professor would tell him that they had none to give him. One day, Gunter was driving back from the university and on the side of the road he saw that the professor got into an accident with another car. Gunter went down to see if he could help the professor. The professor was warning the guy who he got into an accident with, that if the guy didn’t compensate (赔偿) him for the accident, then the professor was going to call the police. Not a nice thing at all from the professor. Gunter went and talked to the guy and the guy told him that he didn’t have money to pay the professor. Gunter went to the professor and paid him the amount, not telling the professor that he was the one who paid it. Gunter didn’t have any money left when he got home that day. The situation was resolved and everyone went home. The next day, the professor called Gunter to his office and told him that there was a scholarship with a deadline that same day that he should apply for. Gunter did and ended up going to one of the best universities in Sweden. To this day, Gunter never revealed to the professor that he was the one who paid for the accident. I love how my friend did this act anonymously (不留名地) and I am so grateful that the universe rewarded him in a way that changed his life. 4. Why did Gunter apply for scholarships? A. To buy some teaching materials. B. To catch the chance of promotion. C. To enhance his career prospects. D. To obtain a good academic reputation. 5. What did Gunter do after he saw the accident? A.

Which of the following best describes Gunter? A. Tricky and intelligent. B. Rude and selfish. C. Strict and hardworking. D. Caring and ambitious 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Gunter因善良帮助教授解决事故赔偿问题，最终获得奖学金改变人生的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“In my country, for career advancement, it is better to have a PhD. Gunter used to go to the professor in charge of scholarships and ask him for scholarships, but the professor would tell him that they had none to give him. (在我的国家，为了职业发展，拥有博士学位会更好。Gunter过去常去找负责奖学金的教授申请奖学金，但教授总会告诉他没有奖学金可以提供给他。)”可知，Gunter申请奖学金是为了提升自己的职业前景。故选C。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Gunter went and talked to the guy and the guy told him that he didn’t have money to pay the professor. Gunter went to the professor and paid him the amount, not telling the professor that he was the one who paid it. Gunter didn’t have any money left when he got home that day. (Gunter与对方交谈后得知，那人没钱赔偿。于是Gunter走向教授，替对方付了赔偿金，且未告知教授钱是他付的。那天回家时，Gunter已身无分文。)”可知，Gunter看到事故后默默地为肇事者付了赔偿款。故选B。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Gunter did and ended up going to one of the best universities in Sweden. (Gunter申请了，并最终进入了瑞典最好的大学之一。)”可知，Gunter最终实现了自己的梦想。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段中“In my country, for career advancement, it is better to have a PhD.

(在我的国家，为了职业发展，拥有博士学位会更好。Gunter过去常去找负责奖学金的教授申请奖学金，但教授总会告诉他没有奖学金可以提供给他。)”、第三段中“Gunter went and talked to the guy and the guy told him that he didn’t have money to pay the professor. Gunter went to the professor and paid him the amount, not telling the professor that he was the one who paid it. Gunter didn’t have any money left when he got home that day. (Gunter与对方交谈后得知，那人没钱赔偿。于是Gunter走向教授，替对方付了赔偿金，且未告知教授钱是他付的。那天回家时，Gunter已身无分文。)”可知，Gunter在看到教授发生事故后，主动帮助肇事者解决问题，并默默付了赔偿款，这显示出他的关心他人；同时，他为了职业发展而努力申请奖学金，并最终成功进入了一所好大学，这显示出他的雄心壮志。因此，D选项“Caring and ambitious (关心他人且雄心勃勃)”最能描述Gunter。故选D。 C At the top of a hill in England’s Peak District, life coach Zaidha leads a mindfulness exercise during a hike, encouraging the participants to engage their senses — observing sights, structures, and sounds in nature. This activity is part of a retreat (静修活动) organized by Mind Over Mountains, which combines guided outdoor adventures with mental health support. Mind Over Mountains addresses a critical gap in traditional mental wellness offerings by encouraging open discussions about depression and anxiety in a natural setting. Unlike conventional self-care activities, these retreats prioritize emotional openness, encouraging the participants to share their feelings and experiences. Wellness coach Rob shares his own struggles, setting a mature model of emotional openness. The participants, initially hesitant, later express relief at the supportive environment. Research confirms that nature immersion (沉浸) reduces anxiety and depression, a benefit agreed by attendees, who describe their 2022 retreat as life-changing. Another organization that has recognized the nature’s therapeutic (治疗的) power is Blackdog Outdoors, founded by Andy Higson. His organization removes common impediments — such as cost and lack of experience — by offering free hikes and low-cost training. Though not therapy meetings, the events, led by outdoor experts and mental health first-aiders, help reduce anxiety and depression and rebuild confidence. Surveys show over 90% of the participants experience lasting mental health improvements. Ruth Israel, one of Mind Over Mountains attendee, credits the retreat in nature with sparking personal growth and self-acceptance. Even challenging weather — like cold rain — becomes part of the healing process, teaching recovery and teamwork. These innovative retreats not only provide a unique approach to mental health support but highlight the importance of nature and community in the healing process. By combining natural immersion with suitable guidance, they offer a powerful treatment method for anxiety and depression, reminding participants of their place in a larger, healing the world. 8. What can we know about Mind Over Mountains? A. It is a traditional wellness program. B. It integrates nature with mental health. C. It offers health advice for adventures. D. It is a well-known mental health clinic. 9. What is a key difference between the retreats and traditional self-care activities? A. The retreats focus more on physical fitness. B. Traditional self-care activities discourage sharing. C. Traditional self-care activities are less effective. D. The retreats emphasize emotional openness. 10. What does the underlined word “impediments” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Barriers. B. Conflicts. C. Principles. D. Alarms. 11. Why does the author mention cold rain in the last paragraph? A. To describe the challenging conditions the participants face. B. To illustrate the challenges of mental health recovery. C. To highlight the role of nature in the healing process. D. To emphasize the effectiveness of the innovative retreats. 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要说明了户外静修活动通过结合自然体验和心理健康支持，帮助参与者缓解焦虑和抑郁，促进个人成长和情感连接。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“This activity is part of a retreat (静修活动) organized by Mind Over Mountains, which combines guided outdoor adventures with mental health support.(这项活动是由Mind Over Mountains组织的一次休养活动的一部分，该活动将有引导的户外探险与心理健康支持相结合)”可知，Mind Over Mountains的核心特点是将自然与心理健康支持相结合。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Unlike conventional self-care activities, these retreats prioritize emotional openness, encouraging the participants to share their feelings and experiences.(与传统的自我护理活动不同，这些静修活动更注重情感的开放性，鼓励参与者分享自己的感受和经历)”可知，静修活动与传统的自我护理活动的主要区别在于，它们优先强调情感的开放性，鼓励参与者分享感受和经历。故选D。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“such as cost and lack of experience(诸如成本和缺乏经验)”可知，“成本和缺乏经验”是参与活动的障碍，故划线词意思是“障碍”。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Even challenging weather — like cold rain — becomes part of the healing process, teaching recovery and teamwork.(即使是寒冷的雨天这样具有挑战性的天气，也成为了治愈过程的一部分，教会人们恢复和团队合作)”可推知，作者提及寒冷的雨天的目的是强调自然在治愈过程中的重要作用。故选C。 D Scientists in Australia have used artificial intelligence (AI) to locate a rare bird called the Plains-wanderer that lives in Australia’s grasslands. The species is now endangered, with its population having declined by over 85%in recent decades as grasslands have been turned into farms and cities. Scientists estimate that only 250 to 1, 000 of these birds remain in the wild. This bird is often called the Goldilocks of animals because it is very particular about its habitat. There can’t be too much grass or too little. The birds are only about 15 centimeters tall, and are not good at flying, so they spend most of their time on the ground. The females are larger and in charge of protecting the territory, while the males take care of the eggs. They are generally brown and white, with yellow legs and beaks. Since the birds are hard to spot, scientists planned to locate the birds by “listening” for the birds instead. Scientists set up 35 special recording devices in nine different grassy areas where Plains-wanderers could possibly have been. The devices collected tens of thousands of hours of recordings-far more than humans could analyze. So scientists fed the recordings to an AI system trained to identify the calls of Plains-wanderers. The AI system discovered Plains-wanderer calls coming from two of the sites. The scientists double-checked and found that the AI system was correct. This is the first time in over 30 years that the Plains-wanderer has been found in the west of Melbourne. Chris Hartnett, the leader of the research, described the discovery as “huge”, comparing it to “finding gold”. Scientists plan to work with the land owners to help protect the birds’ safety and preserve the grasslands they depend on. And the scientists are still “Listening”-using song meters and AI to try to locate more of these birds, hoping to gain a better understanding of their population and distribution. 12. What has led to the sharp decrease in the number of Plains-wanderer? A. Competition for food. B. Habitat loss. C. Natural disasters. D. Illegal hunting. 13. What is the author’s purpose in writing paragraph 2? A. To describe the appearance of the bird. B. To note why the bird is called Goldilocks. C. To discuss the bird’s habitat requirements. D. To show the bird’s unique characteristics. 14. What can we infer about the birds from the last paragraph? A. Their protection manages well. B. They are content with their habitat. C. Their population is still unclear. D. They have adapted to human activities. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. Adopt AI to Track Down Endangered Bird B. The Role of AI in Wildlife Conservation C. The Challenges of Protecting Endangered Bird D. Use AI to Analyze Endangered Species 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了澳大利亚科学家利用AI技术定位濒危鸟类Plains-wanderer的研究过程及保护计划。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“The species is now endangered, with its population having declined by over 85% in recent decades as grasslands have been turned into farms and cities. (该物种现在濒临灭绝，近几十年来，随着草原被改造成农场和城市，其数量减少了85%以上)”可知，栖息地丧失导致平原游荡者数量急剧减少。故选B。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“This bird is often called the Goldilocks of animals because it is very particular about its habitat. (这种鸟通常被称为动物界的金发姑娘，因为它对栖息地非常挑剔)”以及“The females are larger and in charge of protecting the territory, while the males take care of the eggs. They are generally brown and white, with yellow legs and beaks. (雌鸟体型较大，负责保护领地，而雄鸟则负责照顾蛋。它们通常是棕色和白色的，腿和喙是黄色的)”可知，作者写第二段的目的是展示这种鸟的独特特征。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“And the scientists are still “Listening”-using song meters and AI to try to locate more of these birds, hoping to gain a better understanding of their population and distribution. (科学家们仍在“倾听”——使用歌声测量仪和人工智能来定位更多的这种鸟，希望能更好地了解它们的数量和分布)”可知，这些鸟的数量仍然不清楚。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段中“Scientists in Australia have used artificial intelligence (AI) to locate a rare bird called the Plains-wanderer that lives in Australia’s grasslands. (澳大利亚的科学家利用人工智能（AI）定位了一种生活在澳大利亚草原上的珍稀鸟类——Plains-wanderer)”可知，文章主要讲述了澳大利亚科学家利用人工智能追踪濒危鸟类Plains-wanderer，所以A选项“Adopt AI to Track Down Endangered Bird (采用人工智能追踪濒危鸟类)”最符合文章标题。故选A。 第二节(共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 One of the most effective ways to prepare for exams is to create a study plan. ____16____.

Known for his friendly nature and willingness to help, Alex was always eager to make new friends. However, when a new student named Sam joined the class, Alex found himself facing a challenge he had never encountered before. Sam was a quiet boy who always seemed unhappy. He never joined in the games during break and rarely spoke to anyone. Alex wanted to help, but he didn’t know where to start. Determined to help Sam, Alex decided to seek advice from their teacher, Mr Smith. After class, Alex approached Mr Smith and said, “Mr Smith, I’ve been trying to befriend Sam, but I don’t know how to reach him. He always seems so sad and distant.” Mr Smith listened thoughtfully and then shared a story with Alex. “Once, there was a strong iron rod (棒) and a small key,” Mr Smith began. “The iron rod, no matter how hard it tried, couldn’t open a strong lock. But the small key, with just a gentle turn, unlocked it. Sometimes, understanding someone’s heart is more important than trying to fix everything.” Alex listened carefully, feeling a spark of hope. He realized that he needed to understand Sam better. He decided to find out why Sam was so unhappy. After school, he followed Sam from a distance, making sure not to be noticed. For several days, he observed Sam’s routine, trying to figure out what was troubling him. One afternoon, Alex saw Sam walking home alone, looking particularly sad. He followed him to a small park where Sam sat on a bench, staring at the ground. Alex approached cautiously and sat down next to him. “Hey, Sam,” he said softly. “Why don’t you ever play with us?” Sam looked up, surprised. “I just moved here,” he whispered. “I left my old friends and relatives behind. I miss them a lot, and I don’t know how to make new friends here.” Alex felt a wave of empathy. “I understand, Sam,” Alex said gently. “Moving to a new place can be really hard. Sometimes, making new friends can be tough, but it’s worth trying. You’re not alone.” 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。 Over the next few days, Alex purposely included Sam in his activities. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Slowly, Sam began to open up. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： Over the next few days, Alex purposely included Sam in his activities. He invited Sam to join him and his friends during break, and they played games together. Alex also spent time with Sam outside of school, showing him around the neighborhood and introducing him to other kids. Alex made sure to listen to Sam’s stories about his old home and shared some of his own experiences to make Sam feel more connected. He even organized a small get-together at his house, inviting a few friendly classmates to help Sam feel more welcomed. Slowly, Sam began to open up. He became more outgoing and confident, eagerly joining in conversations and activities. His smile became a familiar sight in the classroom. The once quiet and distant boy transformed into a lively and engaged student, all because of Alex’s support and care. Sam’s grades improved, and he even started participating in class discussions. His newfound confidence extended beyond school, as he began to explore his new neighborhood with enthusiasm, making friends with other kids in the area. 【解析】 【导语】本文以Alex想和Sam成为朋友为线索展开，讲述了Alex是个热心助人的初中生，但新同学Sam的孤僻让他束手无策。老师用“钥匙开锁”的比喻启发他：理解比强行帮助更重要，于是Alex主动观察，发现Sam因搬家失去朋友而孤独。他耐心邀请Sam参与活动，倾听他的故事。最终Sam逐渐开朗，融入新环境并重拾自信。 详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“在接下来的几天里，Alex有意让Sam参加他的活动”可知，第一段可描写Alex采取具体行动帮助Sam融入，如邀请他参与课间游戏、介绍新朋友、组织聚会、倾听他的故事。 ②由第二段首句内容“慢慢地，Sam开始敞开心扉”可知，第二段可描写Sam逐渐开朗，成绩提升，积极参与社交，甚至主动探索新社区。 2. 续写线索：Alex邀请Sam参加活动——Alex采取的各种行动——Sam敞开心扉——Sam的各种积极转变 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①变成：transform into/turn into/change into ②参与：participate in/take part in/engage in ③开始做某事：begin to do/start to do 情绪类 ①迫切地：eagerly/avidly/enthusiastically ②冷淡的：distant/aloof/unapproachable 【点睛】【高分句型1】He even organized a small get-together at his house, inviting a few friendly classmates to help Sam feel more welcomed.
