Every Time You Hear That Song Inspired by Dolly Parton’s real-life time capsule(胶囊), which sits in Dollywood, waiting to be opened on Dolly’s 100th birthday, Every Time You Hear That Song is written by Jenna Voris from two points of view. The first is that of 17-year-old Darren Purchase, a journalist from the small town of Mayberry, Arkansas, who wants to unearth the story behind country music legend Decklee Cassel’s empty time capsule. The second is that of Decklee Cassel in the 1960s, coming up in the music world, and what she had to give up to succeed. Snowglobe In Soyoung Park’s award-winning novel, all is not what it seems in Snowglobe — the sunny, green, celebrity-filled city and the last place on earth that isn’t frozen. Residents of the frozen world (the result of the climate crisis) work hard to keep Snowglobe warm. This book is translated from the original Korean. Gita Desai Is Not Here to Shut Up Gita Desai Is Not Here to Shut Up written by Sonia Patel is considered as a tough read that’s worth the discomfort. In it, 18-year-old Gita Desai, a freshman at Stanford, dreams of being a doctor but is pulled off her path by a series of situations that unearth an awful secret from her past. It is based on the author’s own experiences. 1. Who wrote Everything We Never Had? A. Sonia Patel. B. Randy Ribay. C. Soyoung Park. D. Jenna Voris. 2. What is Decklee Cassel? A. A musician. B. A novelist. C. A student. D. A journalist. 3. What is a feature of Gita Desai Is Not Here to Shut Up? A. It is written from two points of view. B. It tells stories of Filipino American boys. C. It is translated from the original Korean. D. It is based on the author’s own experiences. B On the last days of July, I moved to a flat in Brixton and joined those with a garden for the first time. Before moving, I lived in a flat surrounded by a small plot of woodland nearby. There were a good six weeks during which the dawn chorus was so loud that waking up at 5 am was a daily routine. Watching the birds became a soap opera I was deeply invested in. In Brixton, though, all I could hear was traffic. Although I knew clearly that cities are not strongholds of naturalism and that nature is always there waiting for me to find it, it still took me a while to get used to the fact that I had to walk more than five minutes to find a green space. It was for this reason that I turned to gardening. I was not a formally trained gardener; I taught myself on a concrete balcony (阳台), four stories up on a hill in Camberwell in my mid-20s. The only garden I had was in my head, and the space I had when I started my career was used for parties, barbecues and playing with the neighbor’s cat. Filled with blind enthusiasm and curiosity, I picked up plants from supermarkets and flower markets and planted them on my balcony, often killing them out of love and then starting all over again. I often spent whole weekends in that small space. The balcony had a good view: one of London’s shining skylines beneath high skies that changed colour and cloud by the minute. But it was so small that you had to look closely and looking closely is an essential part of enjoying nature, wherever you find it. And to be out on the balcony allowed me to care about things that were bigger than my career, relationship or sense of self. When all three started to waver, it was gardening — and nature more broadly — that enabled me to find a new way of life. 4. Why does the author mention the morning chorus? A. To show that the woods were close to his flat. B. To highlight the activity of birds in the morning. C. To illustrate the joy and routine nature brings. D. To emphasize the loudness of the bird songs. 5. What drove the author to take up gardening? A The need for a new hobby. B. The lack of green spaces in the new location. C. Formal training at the age of 20. D. Influences of other gardeners. 6. What does the author’s gardening experience show? A. Gardening requires formal education. B. The balcony is ideal for growing plants. C. The author has a natural talent for gardening. D. Small spaces can develop deep connections with nature. 7. What is the author’s attitude towards gardening? A. Enthusiastic. B. Discouraged. C. Skeptical. D. Indifferent. C The number of children being educated at home has been growing for the past few decades. The National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) reported that by the last count, in 2019, nearly 3% of U.S. children — 1.5 million — were being homeschooled. This number is surely an undercount because the homeschooling population is very hard to survey. Eleven states do not require parents to inform anyone that they are homeschooling a child, and in most of the country, once a child has exited the traditional schoolroom environment, no one checks to ensure they are receiving an education at all. When a traditional classroom setting cannot meet the educational, social or emotional needs of a child, homeschooling can allow parents to take over. However, many parents are attracted to homeschooling because they want to have more say in what their children learn and what they do not. Some children may not be receiving any instruction at all. Most states don’t require homeschooled kids to be assessed on specific topics the way their classroom-based peers are. This practice enables educational neglect (忽视) that can have long-lasting consequences for a child’s development. Homeschooling advocacy organizations promote studies that claim to show equal or higher levels of academic achievement among homeschooled students, but these studies are often conducted by homeschooling advocates. It’s difficult for social scientists to recruit (招募) representative samples for more strict research because of loose reporting requirements and the underground nature of homeschooling. Still, studies of different homeschooled populations have shown that children’s success depends heavily on their parents’ educational backgrounds. Despite this, in 40 states, parents do not need to have even a high school-level education to educate their children at home. Children deserve a safe and sound education, even though they are educated at home. The government must develop basic standards for safety and quality of education in homeschooling. For example, homeschooling parents could be required to pass an initial background check. Homeschooling instructors could be required to submit documents every year to their local school district or to a state agency to show that their children are learning. 8. Why is the number of homeschooled children likely undercounted? A. Homeschooling isn’t popular in cities. B. Homeschooling is illegal in some states. C. Many parents don’t report homeschooling. D. The government’s survey methods are outdated. 9. What is one reason parents might choose homeschooling for their children? A. To reduce the cost of education. B. To avoid government regulations. C. To ensure their children receive standardized testing. D. To have more control over their children’s education. 10. Which of the following is a major concern about homeschooling? A. Homeschooled children lack family care. B. Parents may fail to provide any formal education. C. Governments are over-regulating it. D. It requires expensive teaching materials. 11. Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A. The Future of Education B. The Benefits of Homeschooling C. The Popularity of Homeschooling in the U.S. D. The Challenges and Regulation of Homeschooling D Astronauts play a crucial role in NASA’s scientific research. “Our job is to work together with people from all over the world to build vehicles and spacecraft to safely live in the space environment to explore the universe,” says retired NASA astronaut Leland Melvin. “We do cutting-edge biological and material research that can save lives on Earth as well as observe the Earth and monitor changes as we fly around the planet every 90 minutes.” Former astronauts say that they were constantly collaborating (合作) with their colleagues during their time as astronauts. They note that team spirit is crucial for anyone who wants to get this type of position. Humility (谦逊) to recognize what one does not know is also vital for this job, as it involves the ability to quickly learn new skills. “Being an astronaut is exciting for anyone who likes to design and build technology because the job involves testing the limits of what technology can do.” says Charles Camarda, who previously served as a senior adviser for innovation at NASA. He notes that the extreme environment in space forces astronauts to be creative. The absence of gravity in outer space poses significant challenges when performing everyday tasks. An astronaut’s work is not restricted to when he or she is in space, according to NASA. “When astronauts are not flying on a mission or training for a mission, they support other missions,” the NASA website states. “There are many jobs on the ground required to support the design, preparation, training and flying of a space mission.” Stephanie Schierholz, a public affairs officer for the human exploration and operations branch of NASA, says that preparing and recovering from missions is a time-consuming process. “On Earth, astronauts participate in training to ensure proficiency for their missions,” she explains. “Typically, astronauts spend years training for a mission, then spend about six months aboard the International Space Station during a mission, and spend time reconditioning afterward, which is necessary due to the effects of zero gravity on their bodies.” Schierholz notes that astronauts typically conduct science experiments during their missions “The space station is an orbiting laboratory, and the astronauts aboard typically support about 250 different research investigations during their six-month mission,” she says. 12. What can be learned about astronauts in NASA’s scientific research? A. They primarily focus on building spacecraft. B. Their work is limited to conducting experiments in space. C. They contribute to both space exploration and Earth-related research. D. They are mainly responsible for monitoring changes in the world. 13. Why is humility considered a vital quality for astronauts? A. It allows astronauts to focus only on Earth observation. B. It ensures astronauts can perform physically demanding tasks. C. It helps astronauts avoid conflicts with international colleagues. D. It enables astronauts to recognize their limitations and learn quickly. 14. What is a key challenge that astronauts face when carrying out space missions? A. The limited time for testing. B. The extreme environment of space. C. The need for constant collaboration. D. The difficulty of training. 15. What does the underlined word “reconditioning” in the last paragraph most likely refer to? A. Recovering physical health. B. Continuing education. C. Planning future missions. D. Repairing equipment. 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。 How to Improve Communication in the Workplace Communicating effectively with coworkers is key to having a positive experience at work.

At our provincial key school, every conversation was about college entrance exams. In the cafeteria, during PE classes, even while waiting to use the bathroom, students compared mock (模拟) test scores and discussed which activities outside class could help them get into top universities. My family-situation made everything harder. After Mom became too ill to work, Dad’s salary from the factory had to pay for her medicine and my younger brother’s school fees. To help, I started skipping evening classes. Three nights a week, I went to a small Internet café near the hospital. Typing stories on a sticky keyboard, I earned 50 yuan for every 10,000 words. My grades began slipping like sand through fingers. My teacher noticed this and asked me what was wrong. Ashamed to tell the truth, I remained silent. Misunderstanding my silence as an addiction to the Internet, the teacher transferred me to an ordinary classroom. My classmates often talked about new study guides their parents bought. I pretended not to care and hid in the library, Between the dusty shelves, I found some old books. A torn copy of Ordinary World taught me about perseverance. In Ba Jin’s Family, I found characters who felt trapped, just like me, and I felt deeply connected. Things changed when Ms. Li became our new Chinese teacher. One morning, she found me hiding a payment slip from the café owner. Instead of scolding me, she learned about my family situation and offered me a way out — a goal. In that afternoon, sunshine poured through the window as she handed back my essay Cracks in the Bronze Age. The pages were covered in red notes. “Your words have power,” she said, pointing to a paragraph about my mother’s hands. Then she gave me an application form for a writing contest. “The deadline is in three months,” she reminded, “and you’ll need good exam grades.” 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。 For the next three months, I worked day and night. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Everything changed in January. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024~2025学年度高二年级5月质量检测 英语 考生注意: 1. 本试卷分选择题和非选择题两部分。满分150分, 考试时间120分钟。 2. 答题前, 考生务必用直径0.5毫来黑色墨水签字笔将密封线内项目填写清楚。 3. 考生作答时, 请将答案答在答题卡上。选择题每小题选出答案后, 用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑; 非选择题请用直径 0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔在答题卡上各题的答题区域内作答, 超出答题区域书写的答案无效, 在试题卷、草稿纸上作答无效。 4. 本卷命题范围: 选择性必修第四册。 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.

Watching the birds became a soap opera I was deeply invested in. In Brixton, though, all I could hear was traffic. Although I knew clearly that cities are not strongholds of naturalism, and that nature is always there waiting for me to find it, it still took me a while to get used to the fact that I had to walk more than five minutes to find a green space. It was for this reason that I turned to gardening. I was not a formally trained gardener; I taught myself on a concrete balcony (阳台), four stories up on a hill in Camberwell in my mid-20s. The only garden I had was in my head, and the space I had when I started my career was used for parties, barbecues and playing with the neighbor’s cat. Filled with blind enthusiasm and curiosity, I picked up plants from supermarkets and flower markets and planted them on my balcony, often killing them out of love and then starting all over again. I often spent whole weekends in that small space. The balcony had a good view: one of London’s shining skylines beneath high skies that changed colour and cloud by the minute. But it was so small that you had to look closely and looking closely is an essential part of enjoying nature, wherever you find it. And to be out on the balcony allowed me to care about things that were bigger than my career, relationship or sense of self. When all three started to waver, it was gardening — and nature more broadly — that enabled me to find a new way of life. 4. Why does the author mention the morning chorus? A. To show that the woods were close to his flat. B. To highlight the activity of birds in the morning. C. To illustrate the joy and routine nature brings. D. To emphasize the loudness of the bird songs. 5. What drove the author to take up gardening? A. The need for a new hobby. B. The lack of green spaces in the new location. C. Formal training at the age of 20. D. Influences of other gardeners. 6. What does the author’s gardening experience show? A. Gardening requires formal education. B. The balcony is ideal for growing plants. C. The author has a natural talent for gardening. D. Small spaces can develop deep connections with nature. 7. What is the author’s attitude towards gardening? A. Enthusiastic. B. Discouraged. C. Skeptical. D. Indifferent. 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者从一个被自然环绕的居住环境搬到城市后，如何通过自学园艺在城市中重新找到与自然的联系，并从中获得心灵的慰藉和生活的意义的经历。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“There were a good six weeks during which the dawn chorus was so loud that waking up at 5 am was a daily routine. Watching the birds became a soap opera I was deeply invested in.(在接下来的六个星期里，黎明的合唱如此响亮，以至于每天早上5点起床都是例行公事。观鸟成了我深深投入其中的一出肥皂剧)”可推断，作者从自然的声音和景象中找到了乐趣，并且这种乐趣已经成为他生活的一部分。故选C。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“…it still took me a while to get used to the fact that I had to walk more than five minutes to find a green space.(……我还是花了一段时间才适应我必须走五分钟多才能找到一块绿地的事实)”及第四段“It was for this reason that I turned to gardening. I was not a formally trained gardener(正是出于这个原因，我转向了园艺。我不是受过正规训练的园丁)”可知，作者的新住处周围缺乏绿色空间，这促使他做园艺。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“I taught myself on a concrete balcony (阳台), four stories up on a hill in Camberwell in my mid-20s.(20多岁的时候，我在Camberwell一座山上四层楼的混凝土阳台上自学)”及第五段“The balcony had a good view: one of London’s shining skylines beneath high skies that changed colour and cloud by the minute. But it was so small that you had to look closely and looking closely is an essential part of enjoying nature…(从阳台上可以看到伦敦耀眼的天际线，天空每分钟都在改变颜色和云层。但它太小了，你必须近距离观察，而近距离观察是享受大自然的重要组成部分……)”可推断，作者在阳台开辟并享受这片绿地，让他与自然有了很深的连接。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Filled with blind enthusiasm and curiosity, I picked up plants from supermarkets and flower markets and planted them on my balcony, often killing them out of love and then starting all over again.(带着盲目热情和好奇心，我从超市和花市买了一些植物，把它们种在我的阳台上，常常因为喜欢而把它们弄死，然后再从头开始)”可知，作者在开始园艺时充满了热情和好奇心，即使因为过度呵护而把植物养死，也会重新开始。这表明作者对园艺有着极高的热情。故选A。 C The number of children being educated at home has been growing for the past few decades. The National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) reported that by the last count, in 2019, nearly 3% of U.S. children — 1.5 million — were being homeschooled. This number is surely an undercount because the homeschooling population is very hard to survey. Eleven states do not require parents to inform anyone that they are homeschooling a child, and in most of the country, once a child has exited the traditional schoolroom environment, no one checks to ensure they are receiving an education at all. When a traditional classroom setting cannot meet the educational, social or emotional needs of a child, homeschooling can allow parents to take over. However, many parents are attracted to homeschooling because they want to have more say in what their children learn and what they do not. Some children may not be receiving any instruction at all. Most states don’t require homeschooled kids to be assessed on specific topics the way their classroom-based peers are. This practice enables educational neglect (忽视) that can have long-lasting consequences for a child’s development. Homeschooling advocacy organizations promote studies that claim to show equal or higher levels of academic achievement among homeschooled students, but these studies are often conducted by homeschooling advocates. It’s difficult for social scientists to recruit (招募) representative samples for more strict research because of loose reporting requirements and the underground nature of homeschooling. Still, studies of different homeschooled populations have shown that children’s success depends heavily on their parents’ educational backgrounds. Despite this, in 40 states, parents do not need to have even a high school-level education to educate their children at home. Children deserve a safe and sound education, even though they are educated at home. The government must develop basic standards for safety and quality of education in homeschooling. For example, homeschooling parents could be required to pass an initial background check. Homeschooling instructors could be required to submit documents every year to their local school district or to a state agency to show that their children are learning. 8. Why is the number of homeschooled children likely undercounted? A. Homeschooling isn’t popular in cities. B. Homeschooling is illegal in some states. C. Many parents don’t report homeschooling. D. The government’s survey methods are outdated. 9. What is one reason parents might choose homeschooling for their children? A. To reduce the cost of education. B. To avoid government regulations. C. To ensure their children receive standardized testing. D. To have more control over their children’s education. 10. Which of the following is a major concern about homeschooling? A. Homeschooled children lack family care. B. Parents may fail to provide any formal education. C. Governments are over-regulating it. D. It requires expensive teaching materials. 11. Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A. The Future of Education B. The Benefits of Homeschooling C. The Popularity of Homeschooling in the U.S. D. The Challenges and Regulation of Homeschooling 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了美国家庭教育的增长趋势、面临的挑战以及监管的必要性。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“This number is surely an undercount because the homeschooling population is very hard to survey. Eleven states do not require parents to inform anyone that they are homeschooling a child, and in most of the country, once a child has exited the traditional schoolroom environment, no one checks to ensure they are receiving an education at all.(这个数字肯定被低估了，因为在家接受教育的孩子很难调查。有11个州不要求父母通知任何人他们正在家教育孩子，而且在该国的大部分地区，一旦孩子离开了传统的教室环境，就没有人会检查他们是否真的在接受教育)”可知，在家接受教育的孩子的数量可能被低估了，是因为许多父母不报告在家教育孩子的情况。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“However, many parents are attracted to homeschooling because they want to have more say in what their children learn and what they do not.(然而，许多家长被在家教育所吸引，因为他们想对孩子学什么和不学什么有更多的发言权)”可知，父母选择让孩子在家接受教育的一个原因是对孩子的教育有更多的控制权。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Some children may not be receiving any instruction at all. Most states don’t require homeschooled kids to be assessed on specific topics the way their classroom-based peers are. This practice enables educational neglect (忽视) that can have long-lasting consequences for a child’s development.(有些孩子可能根本没有接受过任何教育。大多数州不要求在家接受教育的孩子像在教室上课的同龄人那样接受特定主题的评估。这种做法导致了教育忽视，可能对孩子的成长产生长期影响)”可知，在家接受教育的一个主要担忧是父母可能无法提供任何正规教育。故选B。 11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“The number of children being educated at home has been growing for the past few decades.(在过去的几十年里，在家接受教育的孩子的数量一直在增长)”以及后文对在家接受教育可能存在的问题和监管建议的描述可知，文章主要讨论了在家接受教育的挑战和监管问题。所以D选项“The Challenges and Regulation of Homeschooling(在家接受教育的挑战和监管)”是最合适的标题。故选D。 D Astronauts play a crucial role in NASA’s scientific research. “Our job is to work together with people from all over the world to build vehicles and spacecraft to safely live in the space environment to explore the universe,” says retired NASA astronaut Leland Melvin. “We do cutting-edge biological and material research that can save lives on Earth as well as observe the Earth and monitor changes as we fly around the planet every 90 minutes.” Former astronauts say that they were constantly collaborating (合作) with their colleagues during their time as astronauts. They note that team spirit is crucial for anyone who wants to get this type of position. Humility (谦逊) to recognize what one does not know is also vital for this job, as it involves the ability to quickly learn new skills. “Being an astronaut is exciting for anyone who likes to design and build technology because the job involves testing the limits of what technology can do.” says Charles Camarda, who previously served as a senior adviser for innovation at NASA. He notes that the extreme environment in space forces astronauts to be creative. The absence of gravity in outer space poses significant challenges when performing everyday tasks. An astronaut’s work is not restricted to when he or she is in space, according to NASA. “When astronauts are not flying on a mission or training for a mission, they support other missions,” the NASA website states. “There are many jobs on the ground required to support the design, preparation, training and flying of a space mission.” Stephanie Schierholz, a public affairs officer for the human exploration and operations branch of NASA, says that preparing and recovering from missions is a time-consuming process. “On Earth, astronauts participate in training to ensure proficiency for their missions,” she explains. “Typically, astronauts spend years training for a mission, then spend about six months aboard the International Space Station during a mission, and spend time reconditioning afterward, which is necessary due to the effects of zero gravity on their bodies.” Schierholz notes that astronauts typically conduct science experiments during their missions “The space station is an orbiting laboratory, and the astronauts aboard typically support about 250 different research investigations during their six-month mission,” she says. 12. What can be learned about astronauts in NASA’s scientific research? A. They primarily focus on building spacecraft. B Their work is limited to conducting experiments in space. C. They contribute to both space exploration and Earth-related research. D. They are mainly responsible for monitoring changes in the world. 13. Why is humility considered a vital quality for astronauts? A. It allows astronauts to focus only on Earth observation. B. It ensures astronauts can perform physically demanding tasks. C. It helps astronauts avoid conflicts with international colleagues. D. It enables astronauts to recognize their limitations and learn quickly. 14. What is a key challenge that astronauts face when carrying out space missions? A. The limited time for testing. B. The extreme environment of space. C. The need for constant collaboration. D. The difficulty of training. 15. What does the underlined word “reconditioning” in the last paragraph most likely refer to? A. Recovering physical health. B. Continuing education. C. Planning future missions. D. Repairing equipment. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了宇航员在太空任务中的多方面工作，强调了他们在太空探索和地球研究中的重要角色。 12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Our job is to work together with people from all over the world to build vehicles and spacecraft to safely live in the space environment to explore the universe(我们的工作是与来自世界各地的人们一起建造车辆和宇宙飞船，安全地生活在太空环境中，探索宇宙)”和“We do cutting-edge biological and material research that can save lives on Earth as well as observe the Earth and monitor changes as we fly around the planet every 90 minutes.(我们做尖端的生物和材料研究，可以拯救地球上的生命，也可以观察地球，监测我们每90分钟绕地球一圈的变化。)”可知，宇航员的工作既涉及太空探索也涉及地球相关研究。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Humility (谦逊) to recognize what one does not know is also vital for this job, as it involves the ability to quickly learn new skills.(谦虚地承认自己不知道的东西对这份工作也很重要，因为它涉及到快速学习新技能的能力。)”可知，“谦逊”是宇航员的关键素质之一，因为它使宇航员认识到自己的局限性，并迅速学习。故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“He notes that the extreme environment in space forces astronauts to be creative.(他指出，太空中的极端环境迫使宇航员发挥创造力。)”可知，太空的极端环境是宇航员在执行太空任务时面临的主要挑战之一。故选B。 【15题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段中“Typically, astronauts spend years training for a mission, then spend about six months aboard the International Space Station during a mission, and spend time(通常情况下，宇航员要花数年时间进行任务训练，然后在执行任务期间在国际空间站上呆大约6个月，并花时间)”以及“which is necessary due to the effects of zero gravity on their bodies(这是由于零重力环境对他们身体的影响所必需的)”可知，长时间在失重情况下执行太空任务会对宇航员身体造成影响，之后需适应地球重力来恢复健康，故此处画线词意思应为“恢复身体健康”，和Recovering physical health意思相近。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。 How to Improve Communication in the Workplace Communicating effectively with coworkers is key to having a positive experience at work.

At our provincial key school, every conversation was about college entrance exams. In the cafeteria, during PE classes, even while waiting to use the bathroom, students compared mock (模拟) test scores and discussed which activities outside class could help them get into top universities. My family-situation made everything harder. After Mom became too ill to work, Dad’s salary from the factory had to pay for her medicine and my younger brother’s school fees. To help, I started skipping evening classes. Three nights a week, I went to a small Internet café near the hospital. Typing stories on a sticky keyboard, I earned 50 yuan for every 10,000 words. My grades began slipping like sand through fingers. My teacher noticed this and asked me what was wrong. Ashamed to tell the truth, I remained silent. Misunderstanding my silence as an addiction to the Internet, the teacher transferred me to an ordinary classroom. My classmates often talked about new study guides their parents bought. I pretended not to care and hid in the library, Between the dusty shelves, I found some old books. A torn copy of Ordinary World taught me about perseverance. In Ba Jin’s Family, I found characters who felt trapped, just like me, and I felt deeply connected. Things changed when Ms. Li became our new Chinese teacher. One morning, she found me hiding a payment slip from the café owner. Instead of scolding me, she learned about my family situation and offered me a way out — a goal. In that afternoon, sunshine poured through the window as she handed back my essay Cracks in the Bronze Age. The pages were covered in red notes. “Your words have power,” she said, pointing to a paragraph about my mother’s hands. Then she gave me an application form for a writing contest. “The deadline is in three months,” she reminded, “and you’ll need good exam grades.” 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。 For the next three months, I worked day and night. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Everything changed in January. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】For the next three months, I worked day and night. During the day, I studied textbooks while eating cold leftover bread. At night, I sat on the dorm hallway floor, rewriting stories under the dim light in the dorm hallway. My frozen fingers could barely hold my old phone, but I kept typing. I often felt exhausted and discouraged, but I never gave up. I could feel the silent attention and support of Ms. Li, which gave me great strength. I knew that every word I wrote and every problem I solved was bringing me closer to my goal. Everything changed in January. My Chinese exam score jumped to ninth place, and my story won a writing prize. At the award event, Ms. Li stood proudly beside me. When a college teacher asked about me, she spoke for me: “She works harder than anyone else I know.” Her words gave me strength and confidence. I realized that my efforts were not in vain. Ms. Li’s support meant the world to me. She saw my potential when I couldn’t see it myself. She encouraged me to keep pushing forward, even when things were tough. I am forever grateful for her guidance and encouragement. 【解析】 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者在高中最后两年因家庭经济困难和母亲生病，在学业上陷入挣扎，不得不通过在网吧打字赚钱补贴家用，导致成绩下滑并被误解为沉迷网络。在图书馆阅读旧书时，作者找到慰藉。新语文老师李女士发现作者的情况后，不仅没有责备，反而给予鼓励，通过批改作文和提供写作比赛申请表，为作者指明了方向，并提醒其需兼顾学业。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“接下来的三个月里，我日夜不停地努力。”可知，第一段可描写作者努力提升自己成绩和写作能力的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“一切在一月份发生了改变。”可知，第二段可描写作者获得了写作奖并得到了老师的赞美，以及作者对老师的感激之情。 2.续写线索：努力学习——疲惫却从未放弃——成绩提升并获奖——受到表扬——表达感激之情 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①解决：solve/work out ②意识到：realize/be aware of ③鼓励某人做某事：encourage sb to do sth/inspire sb to do sth 情绪类 ①感激的：grateful/appreciative ②筋疲力尽的：exhausted/worn-out 【点睛】[高分句型1] I could feel the silent attention and support of Ms. Li, which gave me great strength.（运用了which引导非限制性定语从句） [高分句型2] I knew that every word I wrote and every problem I solved was bringing me closer to my goal.（运用了that引导宾语从句，省略了that的定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
