B Located in the mist-covered Taihang Mountains of Shanxi Province, the Huangyadong Martyrs Cemetery (墓地) stands as a silent witness to wartime heroism. For 34 years, Zhao Naitang, now 80, has maintained a constant watch over the 44 soldiers resting here — a living monument to their 1941 sacrifice during China’s War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. Each dawn breaks to the rhythm of Zhao’s routine. At precisely 6 AM, the silver-haired caretaker begins dusting tombstones with names like “Li Guoqing, 22” and “Unknown Soldier.” His calloused hands, though trembling with age, clean each memorial with great respect. “They gave their tomorrows for our todays,” Zhao remarks, “Guarding their peace is my life’s purpose.” The roots of Zhao’s mission trace back to his childhood. His father, among the villagers who constructed the Eighth Route Army’s secret weapons depot (储存处) in nearby caves, would describe how 166 soldiers lost their lives defending this weapons depot during eight blood-soaked days in November 1941. These stories lit a fire in young Zhao that still burns bright today. In 1991, when authorities sought a guardian for the isolated cemetery, 46-year-old Zhao abandoned his steel factory job without hesitation. Maintenance proves demanding throughout the year. Heavy rains in summer send mudslides threatening the grave sites; and winter blizzards bury paths under meters of snow. Yet Zhao perseveres. For three decades, he’s lived in simple barracks next to the graves, his only companions being wind-whispering pines and memories of courage. “Soldiers didn’t quit when bullets flew,” he says simply. “How could I?” Beyond physical maintenance, Zhao serves as a storyteller to keep the history alive by telling stories. He memorized each hero’s story — like 19-year-old messenger Wang Xiaobing who carried vital intelligence through enemy lines, only to be killed in a surprise attack. When visitors come, Zhao transforms into a passionate storyteller, his voice trembling while describing final stands and selfless acts. In December 2023, Zhao received Changzhi City’s “Moral Model” award, but his greatest reward comes from students like 17-year-old Zhang Wei. “Grandpa Zhao’s devotion makes history in books come alive,” Zhang noted after a school trip. “Now I understand what ‘never forget’ truly means.” When asked about retirement, Zhao stares at the rows of white gravestones shining in sunset light. “My legs may fail, but my promise won’t. These heroes’ stories must outlive us all.” 4. What motivated Zhao Naitang to become the cemetery caretaker? A. A government request for a cemetery guardian in 1991. B. His father’s stories about the soldiers’ sacrifice. C. The need to protect the wind-whispering pine trees. D. His desire to leave his steel factory job. 5. What does Zhao Naitang do as a guardian of the Huangyadong Martyrs Cemetery? A. He barely dusts tombstones to honor the soldiers. B. He repairs the graves and plants pine trees. C. He organizes school trips and serves as a storyteller. D. He maintains the cemetery and shares its stories. 6. Which of the following words can best describe Zhao Naitang? A. Ambitious and generous. B. Dedicated and persevering. C. Stubborn and conservative. D. Careless and optimistic. 7. What can we infer from Zhao’s words in the last paragraph? A. He worries his health issues might prevent his duties. B. He believes maintaining the cemetery requires more help for better preservation. C. He thinks younger generations will naturally inherit his work. D. He is committed to fulfilling his promise regardless of physical challenges. C A groundbreaking study from Imperial College London has revealed that certain homemade soups might have remarkable capabilities in combating malaria (疟疾). Led by Professor Jake Baum, the research involved collecting 56 clear soups traditionally used to treat fevers from students of diverse cultural backgrounds. These soups — including chicken, beef, and vegetable varieties—were then tested against Plasmodium (疟原虫), which is responsible for 99.7% of African malaria cases according to WHO data. The laboratory results proved remarkable. Five soups demonstrated over 50% effectiveness in inhibiting Plasmodium growth, with two matching the performance of conventional antimalarial drugs. Additionally, four broths showed significant potential in blocking Plasmodium maturation, a crucial stage when mosquitoes become infectious. “We were genuinely excited to see some soups working under controlled lab conditions,” Baum told AFP, while emphasizing these were preliminary findings requiring further confirmation. Despite these promising results, researchers face challenges in identifying active ingredients. The effective soups came from families with European, North African, and Middle Eastern heritage, containing varied components from meat to leafy greens. Interestingly, vegetarian soups performed comparably to meat-based ones. “To truly identify key components, we’d need standardized preparation methods,” Baum noted, highlighting the complexity of analyzing mixed-ingredient remedies (药物). This investigation echoes historical successes in obtaining medicines from traditional remedies. Researchers specifically referenced Dr. Tu Youyou’s Nobel-winning work on artemisinin, developed from the ancient Chinese herb qinghao. With malaria claiming 40,000 lives annually and drug resistance rising, Baum stresses the urgency to “look beyond chemistry.” The study serves dual purposes: advancing alternative treatment research while showing students how medicine can inspire modern scientific breakthroughs. 8. What is the original purpose of using the soups in students’ families? A. To prevent malaria. B. To handle fevers. C. To improve nutrition. D. To resist Plasmodium. 9. The word “inhibiting” in paragraph 2 most closely means ______. A. controlling B. promoting C. facilitating D. stimulating 10. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Meat-based soups are more effective than vegetarian soups. B. The existing discoveries are sufficient to prove the soups work. C. Dr. Tu Youyou’s work inspired the research on traditional remedies. D. Malaria contributed to 40,000 deaths because of its drug resistance rising. 11. Which is the best title for the passage? A. The History of Malaria Treatment B. Homemade Soups: A New Cure for Malaria? C. Why Vegetarian Soups Are Healthier D. How to Cook Anti-Malaria Chicken Soup D The enormous fictional robots of the “Transformers” universe move along the ground in one of two ways. On wheels when they are shaped like vehicles; on huge manlike feet when they are not. For decades, most real-world robots also fell neatly into these two fictional categories. Then around 15 years ago, came the realization that other means of movement were possible. “Zoomorphic” robots mined the animal kingdom for inspiration, drawing on evolution’s thousands of years of research and development. Animal-like robots continue to be popular. And yet, says Barbara Mazzolai, an Italian roboticist, the field of robotics has proved far less eager to investigate the other major category of living things—plants. She blames the unwillingness on a misconception about the usefulness of plant behavior: that they are capable of neither motion nor perception. “It’s not true at all,” she says. Dr. Mazzolai and her team recently revealed “FiloBot”, a robot based on climbing plants. Like the real thing, FiloBot is capable of growing, attaching to and winding around supports, and handling an environment in response to external stimuli (刺激). The researchers found that these simple functions were enough to let FiloBot move through a complex, unseen environment, cross gaps and find things to attach to. They believe that this makes it suitable for potential applications including environmental monitoring in hard-to-reach or unknown locations where piloting a robot along an exact course might be impossible, or monitoring disaster sites where an existing structure is unstable. FiloBot is not the only plantlike robot the team is working on. Dr. Mazzolai has been developing “planetoids”, based on roots, since 2012. And in 2021, her team, along with European partners, started developing “I-Seed”, a biodegradable mini-bot that can be moved about by wind and rain and change shape according to humidity. It could be used to carry and distribute real seeds for reforestation, opening up and releasing its load once it hits suitable soil. Dr. Mazzolai hopes that such projects will encourage other roboticists to draw inspiration from plants. 12. What are the two traditional ways for robots to move on the ground according to the text? A. By climbing and winding. B. By using wheels and manlike feet. C. By mining and drawing. D. By attaching and growing. 13. What is the main reason that the field of robotics has been less eager to investigate plant-based robots? A. Plants’ behaviors are enormously hard to imitate in robotics. B. There is a misunderstanding that plants have no motion and perception. C. Animal-based robots are more popular and widespread. D. Robots based on plants are less useful in real-world applications. 14. In which field is Filobot most likely to be applied? A. Urban building checks. B. Crowd control. C Mall cleaning. D. Earthquake rescue. 15. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. Robotics’ diverse evolution. B. Misconceptions in robotics. C. Plants’ new chapter in robotics. D. Animal-robots’ dominance. 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。 “Let’s brainstorm together!” You might often hear your teachers ask you to have a group discussion to solve a problem. But is brainstorming really a good way to deal with problems, especially creative ones? The Dutch company WeTransfer conducted a survey of 20,000 creatives from 197 countries and regions. ____16____. The survey results suggested that brainstorming is largely unhelpful for solving a creative challenge. “____17____. However, it seems that while working together is essential to bring an idea to life, it’s not that good for shaping ideas in the first place,” noted Rob Alderson, WeTransfer’s former editor-in-chief. “Send people off with the time and space to think properly and the quality of their ideas will probably improve,” Alderson added. In fact, Alex Osborn, the father of brainstorming, also sees spending time alone to think as part of his own creative process. However, most companies fail to give their employees a chance to prepare and form their thoughts. ____18____. More than 40 percent of participants see meetings as a barrier to good thinking. That’s a worrying number given almost 90 percent of participants work in creative fields which rise and fall on the power of good ideas. Independent thinking is also crucial when making decisions. Nearly 80 percent of participants in the survey say they trust their own instincts and research when evaluating an idea. ____19____. Though the growing body of evidence suggests brainstorming may not result in the best ideas, it isn’t entirely useless. ____20____. If nothing else, practicing brainstorming promotes team cohesion (凝聚力) and trust. A. It proved the risks of this form of group thinking B. Only 18 percent will run an idea past colleagues and friends C. They include writers, musicians, photographers and podcasters D. In the creative world, we hear an awful lot (大量的言论) about collaboration E. They often have many meetings scheduled, which is a killer of creativity F. They should place as much, if not more, faith in the individual imagination G. A Northern Illinois University study emphasized its value as a team-building activity 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 In my early 40s, I felt stuck in middle age.

As a writer, I noticed how the struggle for perfection in ballet ____30____ my creative process in my writing. Over the past eight years, ballet has ____31____ how I see and feel about my body. My movements are still far from the ____32____, but I’ve learned to ____33____ the small wins — better ____34____, more confidence, and growing strength.

In two days, she’d leave for the International Youth Music Camp, a two-week program where she could play the violin freely—away from her younger sister Mia’s noises and her parents’ “quiet down” reminders. Lila was delighted to have some space. The camp started smoothly. Instructor Mr. Castillo praised her as “a passionate violinist,” and she was glad to hear that. But by the fifth day, a sense of homesickness swept over her. Every scene of children’s laughter in the dining hall reminded Lil a of Mia’s giggle; rainy evenings made Lila think of Mia’s dances. One morning, a small package arrived at the camp office with Lila’s name on it. Inside were a simple drawing of two cartoon people—the one with a violin was Lila, the other with a crayon was Mia, and a note in childish handwriting: “I miss you and your music. Mia.” Lil a told herself they were just silly kid things, but each night, she’d take them out, reading the note and touching the two figures of Mia’s drawing. One rainy afternoon, she even composed a short melody (曲子) inspired by Mia’s drawing. When Mr. Castillo heard it, he said, “That is the most heartfelt piece you’ve played yet.” The day before the final concert, Lila opened her suitcase, only to find a new letter. It was from her mom: “Mia tries to play your violin every day, even though it’s too big for her. She says she’s preparing for being your audience.” Lila’s eyes were full of tears. She missed Mia’s messy hair, her loud stories, even the way she’d play the violin like a drum. For the first time, the camp seemed to be so quiet and lonely. 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。 The morning of the concert, Lila saw Mr. Castillo lead the parents who came to see their children’s performance to their seats. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As the final melody of her solo ended, Lila spotted some familiar faces in the audience. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 英语 注意事项： 1.答题前，考生务必用黑色碳素笔将自己的姓名、准考证号、考场号、座位号在答题卡上填写清楚。 2.每小题选出答案后，用2B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。在试题卷上作答无效。 3.考试结束后，请将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。满分150分，考试用时120分钟。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 注意，听力部分答题时，请先将答案标在试卷上。听力部分结束前，你将有两分钟的时间将答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

For 34 years, Zhao Naitang, now 80, has maintained a constant watch over the 44 soldiers resting here — a living monument to their 1941 sacrifice during China’s War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. Each dawn breaks to the rhythm of Zhao’s routine. At precisely 6 AM, the silver-haired caretaker begins dusting tombstones with names like “Li Guoqing, 22” and “Unknown Soldier.” His calloused hands, though trembling with age, clean each memorial with great respect. “They gave their tomorrows for our todays,” Zhao remarks, “Guarding their peace is my life’s purpose.” The roots of Zhao’s mission trace back to his childhood. His father, among the villagers who constructed the Eighth Route Army’s secret weapons depot (储存处) in nearby caves, would describe how 166 soldiers lost their lives defending this weapons depot during eight blood-soaked days in November 1941. These stories lit a fire in young Zhao that still burns bright today. In 1991, when authorities sought a guardian for the isolated cemetery, 46-year-old Zhao abandoned his steel factory job without hesitation. Maintenance proves demanding throughout the year. Heavy rains in summer send mudslides threatening the grave sites; and winter blizzards bury paths under meters of snow. Yet Zhao perseveres. For three decades, he’s lived in simple barracks next to the graves, his only companions being wind-whispering pines and memories of courage. “Soldiers didn’t quit when bullets flew,” he says simply. “How could I?” Beyond physical maintenance, Zhao serves as a storyteller to keep the history alive by telling stories. He memorized each hero’s story — like 19-year-old messenger Wang Xiaobing who carried vital intelligence through enemy lines, only to be killed in a surprise attack. When visitors come, Zhao transforms into a passionate storyteller, his voice trembling while describing final stands and selfless acts. In December 2023, Zhao received Changzhi City’s “Moral Model” award, but his greatest reward comes from students like 17-year-old Zhang Wei. “Grandpa Zhao’s devotion makes history in books come alive,” Zhang noted after a school trip. “Now I understand what ‘never forget’ truly means.” When asked about retirement, Zhao stares at the rows of white gravestones shining in sunset light. “My legs may fail, but my promise won’t. These heroes’ stories must outlive us all.” 4. What motivated Zhao Naitang to become the cemetery caretaker? A. A government request for a cemetery guardian in 1991. B. His father’s stories about the soldiers’ sacrifice. C. The need to protect the wind-whispering pine trees. D. His desire to leave his steel factory job. 5. What does Zhao Naitang do as a guardian of the Huangyadong Martyrs Cemetery? A. He barely dusts tombstones to honor the soldiers. B. He repairs the graves and plants pine trees. C. He organizes school trips and serves as a storyteller. D. He maintains the cemetery and shares its stories. 6. Which of the following words can best describe Zhao Naitang? A. Ambitious and generous. B. Dedicated and persevering. C. Stubborn and conservative. D. Careless and optimistic. 7. What can we infer from Zhao’s words in the last paragraph? A. He worries his health issues might prevent his duties. B. He believes maintaining the cemetery requires more help for better preservation. C. He thinks younger generations will naturally inherit his work. D. He is committed to fulfilling his promise regardless of physical challenges. 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. B 7.

Led by Professor Jake Baum, the research involved collecting 56 clear soups traditionally used to treat fevers from students of diverse cultural backgrounds. These soups — including chicken, beef, and vegetable varieties—were then tested against Plasmodium (疟原虫), which is responsible for 99.7% of African malaria cases according to WHO data. The laboratory results proved remarkable. Five soups demonstrated over 50% effectiveness in inhibiting Plasmodium growth, with two matching the performance of conventional antimalarial drugs. Additionally, four broths showed significant potential in blocking Plasmodium maturation, a crucial stage when mosquitoes become infectious. “We were genuinely excited to see some soups working under controlled lab conditions,” Baum told AFP, while emphasizing these were preliminary findings requiring further confirmation. Despite these promising results, researchers face challenges in identifying active ingredients. The effective soups came from families with European, North African, and Middle Eastern heritage, containing varied components from meat to leafy greens. Interestingly, vegetarian soups performed comparably to meat-based ones. “To truly identify key components, we’d need standardized preparation methods,” Baum noted, highlighting the complexity of analyzing mixed-ingredient remedies (药物). This investigation echoes historical successes in obtaining medicines from traditional remedies. Researchers specifically referenced Dr. Tu Youyou’s Nobel-winning work on artemisinin, developed from the ancient Chinese herb qinghao. With malaria claiming 40,000 lives annually and drug resistance rising, Baum stresses the urgency to “look beyond chemistry.” The study serves dual purposes: advancing alternative treatment research while showing students how medicine can inspire modern scientific breakthroughs. 8. What is the original purpose of using the soups in students’ families? A. To prevent malaria. B. To handle fevers. C. To improve nutrition. D. To resist Plasmodium. 9. The word “inhibiting” in paragraph 2 most closely means ______. A. controlling B. promoting C. facilitating D. stimulating 10. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Meat-based soups are more effective than vegetarian soups. B. The existing discoveries are sufficient to prove the soups work. C. Dr. Tu Youyou’s work inspired the research on traditional remedies. D. Malaria contributed to 40,000 deaths because of its drug resistance rising. 11 Which is the best title for the passage? A. The History of Malaria Treatment B. Homemade Soups: A New Cure for Malaria? C. Why Vegetarian Soups Are Healthier D. How to Cook Anti-Malaria Chicken Soup 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11.

On wheels, when they are shaped like vehicles; on huge manlike feet when they are not. For decades, most real-world robots also fell neatly into these two fictional categories. Then, around 15 years ago, came the realization that other means of movement were possible. “Zoomorphic” robots mined the animal kingdom for inspiration, drawing on evolution’s thousands of years of research and development. Animal-like robots continue to be popular. And yet, says Barbara Mazzolai, an Italian roboticist, the field of robotics has proved far less eager to investigate the other major category of living things—plants. She blames the unwillingness on a misconception about the usefulness of plant behavior: that they are capable of neither motion nor perception. “It’s not true at all,” she says. Dr. Mazzolai and her team recently revealed “FiloBot”, a robot based on climbing plants. Like the real thing, FiloBot is capable of growing, attaching to and winding around supports, and handling an environment in response to external stimuli (刺激). The researchers found that these simple functions were enough to let FiloBot move through a complex, unseen environment, cross gaps and find things to attach to. They believe that this makes it suitable for potential applications including environmental monitoring in hard-to-reach or unknown locations where piloting a robot along an exact course might be impossible, or monitoring disaster sites where an existing structure is unstable. FiloBot is not the only plantlike robot the team is working on. Dr. Mazzolai has been developing “planetoids”, based on roots, since 2012. And in 2021, her team, along with European partners, started developing “I-Seed”, a biodegradable mini-bot that can be moved about by wind and rain and change shape according to humidity. It could be used to carry and distribute real seeds for reforestation, opening up and releasing its load once it hits suitable soil. Dr. Mazzolai hopes that such projects will encourage other roboticists to draw inspiration from plants. 12. What are the two traditional ways for robots to move on the ground according to the text? A. By climbing and winding. B. By using wheels and manlike feet. C. By mining and drawing. D. By attaching and growing. 13. What is the main reason that the field of robotics has been less eager to investigate plant-based robots? A Plants’ behaviors are enormously hard to imitate in robotics. B. There is a misunderstanding that plants have no motion and perception. C. Animal-based robots are more popular and widespread. D. Robots based on plants are less useful in real-world applications. 14. In which field is Filobot most likely to be applied? A. Urban building checks. B. Crowd control. C. Mall cleaning. D. Earthquake rescue. 15. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. Robotics’ diverse evolution. B. Misconceptions in robotics. C. Plants’ new chapter in robotics. D. Animal-robots’ dominance. 【答案】12. B 13. B 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍受植物启发的机器人研究，如FiloBot等，及其潜在应用场景。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“On wheels, when they are shaped like vehicles; on huge manlike feet when they are not. For decades, most real-world robots also fell neatly into these two fictional categories.(当它们形如车辆时靠轮子移动；否则靠巨大的类人脚移动。几十年来，大多数现实世界的机器人也恰好属于这两种虚构的类别)”可知，机器人在地面上移动的两种传统方式是使用轮子和类人脚。故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“She blames the unwillingness on a misconception about the usefulness of plant behavior: that they are capable of neither motion nor perception. “It’s not true at all,” she says. (她将这种不情愿归咎于对植物行为有用性的误解：认为它们既不能移动也不能感知。“这根本不是真的，”她说)”可知，机器人领域不太热衷于研究基于植物的机器人的主要原因是存在“植物没有运动和感知能力”的误解。故选B项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“They believe that this makes it suitable for potential applications including environmental monitoring in hard-to-reach or unknown locations where piloting a robot along an exact course might be impossible, or monitoring disaster sites where an existing structure is unstable.(他们认为，这使其适合潜在应用，包括在难以到达或未知的位置进行环境监测（在这些地方可能无法按精确路线驾驶机器人），或监测现有结构不稳定的灾难现场)”可知，FiloBot最可能应用于地震救援（属于监测结构不稳定的灾难现场）。故选D项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第三段中的“Dr. Mazzolai and her team recently revealed “FiloBot”, a robot based on climbing plants. (马佐莱博士和她的团队最近展示了“FiloBot”，一种基于攀缘植物的机器人)”及第五段中的“FiloBot is not the only plantlike robot the team is working on. Dr. Mazzolai has been developing “planetoids”, based on roots, since 2012.

But is brainstorming really a good way to deal with problems, especially creative ones? The Dutch company WeTransfer conducted a survey of 20,000 creatives from 197 countries and regions. ____16____. The survey results suggested that brainstorming is largely unhelpful for solving a creative challenge. “____17____. However, it seems that while working together is essential to bring an idea to life, it’s not that good for shaping ideas in the first place,” noted Rob Alderson, WeTransfer’s former editor-in-chief. “Send people off with the time and space to think properly and the quality of their ideas will probably improve,” Alderson added. In fact, Alex Osborn, the father of brainstorming, also sees spending time alone to think as part of his own creative process. However, most companies fail to give their employees a chance to prepare and form their thoughts. ____18____. More than 40 percent of participants see meetings as a barrier to good thinking. That’s a worrying number given almost 90 percent of participants work in creative fields which rise and fall on the power of good ideas. Independent thinking is also crucial when making decisions. Nearly 80 percent of participants in the survey say they trust their own instincts and research when evaluating an idea. ____19____. Though the growing body of evidence suggests brainstorming may not result in the best ideas, it isn’t entirely useless. ____20____. If nothing else, practicing brainstorming promotes team cohesion (凝聚力) and trust. A. It proved the risks of this form of group thinking B. Only 18 percent will run an idea past colleagues and friends C. They include writers, musicians, photographers and podcasters D. In the creative world, we hear an awful lot (大量的言论) about collaboration E. They often have many meetings scheduled, which is a killer of creativity F. They should place as much, if not more, faith in the individual imagination G. A Northern Illinois University study emphasized its value as a team-building activity 【答案】16. C 17. D 18. E 19. B 20.

In two days, she’d leave for the International Youth Music Camp, a two-week program where she could play the violin freely—away from her younger sister Mia’s noises and her parents’ “quiet down” reminders. Lila was delighted to have some space. The camp started smoothly. Instructor Mr. Castillo praised her as “a passionate violinist,” and she was glad to hear that. But by the fifth day, a sense of homesickness swept over her. Every scene of children’s laughter in the dining hall reminded Lil a of Mia’s giggle; rainy evenings made Lila think of Mia’s dances. One morning, a small package arrived at the camp office with Lila’s name on it. Inside were a simple drawing of two cartoon people—the one with a violin was Lila, the other with a crayon was Mia, and a note in childish handwriting: “I miss you and your music. Mia.” Lil a told herself they were just silly kid things, but each night, she’d take them out, reading the note and touching the two figures of Mia’s drawing. One rainy afternoon, she even composed a short melody (曲子) inspired by Mia’s drawing. When Mr. Castillo heard it, he said, “That is the most heartfelt piece you’ve played yet.” The day before the final concert, Lila opened her suitcase, only to find a new letter. It was from her mom: “Mia tries to play your violin every day, even though it’s too big for her. She says she’s preparing for being your audience.” Lila’s eyes were full of tears. She missed Mia’s messy hair, her loud stories, even the way she’d play the violin like a drum. For the first time, the camp seemed to be so quiet and lonely. 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。 The morning of the concert, Lila saw Mr. Castillo lead the parents who came to see their children’s performance to their seats. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As the final melody of her solo ended, Lila spotted some familiar faces in the audience. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】The morning of the concert, Lila saw Mr. Castillo lead the parents who came to see their children’s performance to their seats. Seeing many performers greeting their families, Lila anxiously and nervously looked for the faces of her family members, but in vain. Lila felt a little depressed, and she stared at the violin in silence. There was even a moment when Lila had the thought of giving up. However, upon thinking of her mother’s letter and Mia’s drawing, Lila eventually walked onto the stage with her beloved violin and began to play. As the final melody of her solo ended, Lila spotted some familiar faces in the audience. Lila was so overjoyed that she could feel her heart pounding wildly. Lila saw her mother’s smile and Mia was waving at her. Lila stepped down from the stage, quickly ran to her family, and then hugged them. Mia said, “Lila, you’re really amazing! I love your wonderful performance. ”With a warm smile, her mother said, “I’m proud of you, Lila. ”Only then did Lila realize that what she truly wanted was the company and warmth of her family. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Lila Moore参加了一个音乐夏令营，最初很高兴能离开吵闹的妹妹Mia和父母。营地开始得很顺利。教练Castillo称赞她是“一个充满激情的小提琴手”，她很高兴听到这一点。但后来她开始想家，收到Mia的画和信，让她更加思念家人。最后，在音乐会前一天，她收到妈妈的信说Mia也在练习拉小提琴，她说她准备做Lila的听众。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“音乐会的那天早上，Lila看到Castillo先生把前来观看孩子表演的父母领到座位上。”可知，第一段可描写描述Lila看到父母入座的情景，这让她感动。 ②由第二段首句内容“当她独奏的最后一段旋律结束时，Lila在观众中发现了一些熟悉的面孔。”可知，第二段可描写Lila在独奏结束时看到家人，导致情感高潮。 2.续写线索：入场——演奏——发现家人——激动——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.看见：see/spot ②.寻找：look for/seek ③.走下：step down/get off 情绪类 ②.紧张地：nervously/tensely ②.自豪：be proud of/take pride in 【点睛】[高分句型1].
