B Born in Germany, Kathrine Switzer was an athletic and driven child. As a young girl, Switzer was active in various sports, but she faced huge troubles as there was a widely held attitude that women in sports were unattractive. In high school, she began to take running more seriously, often training in secret. She developed her determination (意志) and running skills through continuous practice, often running long distances to build her stamina (耐力). Switzer attended Syracuse University, where she trained with the men’s cross-country team. During this time, Switzer decided to run the Boston Marathon. As there was nothing in the official rulebook preventing women from entering, she signed up for the 1967 race. She used the name “K. V. Switzer”. As a result, race officials did not realise she was a woman. But when the race officials discovered she was a woman, they tried to stop her. Fortunately, her boyfriend Tom Miller and a group of men runners formed a sort of protective curtain around her. Finally, she completed the race in four hours and twenty minutes. After that, she decided to help other women athletes. The Boston Marathon finally began accepting women runners in 1972, and three years later, Switzer placed second at the race with a time of 2:51:37, her personal best. In 1977, she created the Avon International Running Circuit, a worldwide series of women’s races that lay the groundwork for the women’s marathon to become an Olympic event in 1984. Switzer went on to found the women’s running club, 261 Fearless, and entered the National Women’s Hall of Fame in 2011. Still an active runner, Switzer even completed the Boston Marathon in 2017-fifty years after her historic run. “When I go to the Boston Marathon now, I have wet shoulders — women fall into my arms crying,” she said. “They’re crying for joy because running has changed their lives. They feel nothing is impossible.” 4. How did Switzer train as a young girl? A. By following a professional plan. B. By joining a cross-country team. C. By keeping running secretly. D. By seeking help from her coach. 5. What can we learn about Switzer in the 1967 marathon? A She reached her personal best. B. She broke a record set by men. C. She lent a hand to another runner. D. She was the first woman to complete it. 6. What is the result of Switzer’s 1977 running series? A. 261 Fearless was founded. B. She won many national honours. C. Women’s marathon entered the Olympics. D. Boston Marathon accepted women runners. 7. What is the best title of the text? A. Kathrine Switzer: A Pioneer in Women's Sports B. The 1967 Boston Marathon: A Race Against Time C. Seeking Possibilities: A Woman of Olympic Spirits D. Breaking Limits: The Story of a Marathon Champion C January 20, 2025, a Chinese tech company named DeepSeek made a new AI called DeepSeek-R1, which has emerged as a pioneer especially in educational technology. This smart program can solve math problems, write code, and answer questions like top models such as OpenAI’s GPT-4o, but it costs much less to build. It combines advanced machine learning methods to provide personalized learning solutions for students worldwide. Unlike traditional AI models that rely on pre-programmed answers, DeepSeek-R1 learns by trying many times and getting better, like how students practice maths. DeepSeek-R1 improves by itself by using reinforcement (强化) learning to simulate (模拟) human reasoning. This allows it to guide students through problem-solving step by step, much like a patient tutor. For example, when a student struggles with a math equation, DeepSeek-R1 doesn’t just give the answer; it breaks down the logic, identifies errors, and encourages critical thinking. The model’s applications extend beyond academics. In language learning, it analyzes (分析) students’ pronunciation through AI speech recognition and offers real-time feedback. For teachers, DeepSeek-R1 can provide lesson plans that agree with curriculum standards and even predict students’ learning difficulties based on historical data. Its “adaptive testing” feature creates customized quizzes that adjust difficulty according to individual progress. However, challenges remain. Critics argue that over-reliance on AI might reduce human interaction in education. DeepSeek’s developers address this by emphasizing its role as a “supplement (补充), not a replacement.” As Dr. Li, a DeepSeek researcher, stated, “Our goal is to free teachers from repetitive tasks so they can focus on inspiring creativity.” Looking ahead, DeepSeek aims to bring virtual reality (VR) into its platform, allowing students to explore historical events or scientific concepts in immersive 3D environments. While ethical debates about AI in education still exist, one thing is clear: tools like DeepSeek are reshaping how we learn, combining technology with human wisdom. 8. What makes DeepSeek-R1 different from traditional AI models? A. It uses pre-programmed answers. B. It focuses on memorization techniques. C. It creates fixed test patterns for all the students. D. It employs reinforcement learning for reasoning. 9. What does the underlined word “adaptive” in paragraph 3 most likely mean? A. fixed B. adjustable C. complex D. outdated 10. What’s the author’s attitude towards the use of DeepSeek-R1? A. skeptical B. critical C. positive D. indifferent 11. What is the main purpose of writing the passage? A. To advertise DeepSeek products. B. To criticize the risks of DeepSeek in schools. C. To discuss the role of DeepSeek in transforming education. D. To compare different AI models. D One of our biggest fears nowadays is that our kids might someday get lost in a “sea of technology” rather than experiencing the natural world. TV and computer games are leading to a serious disconnect between kids and the great outdoors. Each of us has a place in nature where we go sometimes, even if it is torn down. We cannot be the last generation to have that place. At this rate, kids who miss the sense of wonder outdoors will not grow up to be protectors of natural landscapes. “If the decrease in park use continues across North America, who will defend parks against encroachment (蚕食)?” asks Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods. Without having a nature experience, kids can turn out just fine, but they are missing out a huge enrichment of their lives. That applies to everything from their physical health and mental health, to stress levels, creativity and cognitive (认知的) skills. Experts predict modern kids will have poorer health than their parents — and a lack of outside play is surely part of it; research suggests that kids do better academically in schools with a nature exposure. Even a small outdoor experience can create wonder in a child. The three-year-old turning over his first rock realizes he is not alone in the world. Kids are not responsible. They are just over-protected and frightened. It is dangerous outdoors from time to time, but when repetitive stress from computers is replacing breaking an arm as a childhood rite (仪式) during the children’s growth, it can be more dangerous. We should help regain for our kids some of the freedom and joy of exploring nature and taking friendship in fields and woods that cement love, respect and need for landscape. As parents, we should devote some of our energies to taking our kids into nature. This could yet be our greatest cause. 12. What is the purpose of Paragraph 2? A. To show the great damage done to nature. B. To recommend a popular book to the public. C. To stress the necessity of kid’s going outdoors. D. To raise the awareness of environmental protection. 13. What may happen to children without a nature experience? A. They’ll surely become a failure. B. They’ll keep a high sense of wonder. C. They may suffer physically and mentally. D. They can develop better social skills. 14. What does the author think of children’s breaking an arm? A. It is not a bad thing in a sense. B. It is caused by the careless parents. C. It should be taken seriously. D. It could be prevented from happening. 15. What should parents do according to the author? A. Ensure kids’ freedom and joy. B. Value outdoor activities of kids. C. Bring kids science about nature. D. Advocate kids making friends. 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。 As a writer who shares his journey online, I’m often asked how to begin a writing journey.

One day, Ryan, my thirteen-year-old son, approached me and said, “Mom, would you like to join in our bikeathon (自行车马拉松) next month?” As he told me the details of the bikeathon, I laughed out loudly. “What makes you think I could finish a 20-mile bikeathon?” I asked. Ryan looked straight in my eyes and said, “I know you can do it. You can be my iron (铁) mommy.” I almost laughed again. But my son was serious. So I promised him that I would consider it. When I began to think over his invitation, I surprisingly found that it would need months of training and new equipment, and that my bike needed fixing to work again. At that moment, I lost my interest in doing all of that. The next day, I went to kindergarten class. I played a familiar counting song and the kids were struggling to keep up with the beat at first. “Let’s do it again, and this time better. I know you can do it!” There it was again and again, and the kids made it to sing to the beat. Realizing my inspiring words “I know you can do it”, I was determined to have a try for the bikeathon. I told Ryan about it and asked him to give me some tips on how to get ready. I began training hard to get prepared. Then the bikeathon day came on a cool spring morning. Ryan and I set out for the site together. Ryan kept encouraging me on the road. However, as soon as I came to the starting point, which is on a hill overlooking our town and about twenty miles away from the finish line, I became a bit nervous. 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。 Then the bikeathon began. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Encouraged by Ryan and other bikers, I regained (重新获得) my energy. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 哈尔滨德强高级中学2024-2025学年度下学期期中考试 高一年级英语试题 时间：120分钟 满分：150分 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.

As a result, race officials did not realise she was a woman. But when the race officials discovered she was a woman, they tried to stop her. Fortunately, her boyfriend Tom Miller and a group of men runners formed a sort of protective curtain around her. Finally, she completed the race in four hours and twenty minutes. After that, she decided to help other women athletes. The Boston Marathon finally began accepting women runners in 1972, and three years later, Switzer placed second at the race with a time of 2:51:37, her personal best. In 1977, she created the Avon International Running Circuit, a worldwide series of women’s races that lay the groundwork for the women’s marathon to become an Olympic event in 1984. Switzer went on to found the women’s running club, 261 Fearless, and entered the National Women’s Hall of Fame in 2011. Still an active runner, Switzer even completed the Boston Marathon in 2017-fifty years after her historic run. “When I go to the Boston Marathon now I have wet shoulders — women fall into my arms crying,” she said. “They’re crying for joy because running has changed their lives. They feel nothing is impossible.” 4. How did Switzer train as a young girl? A. By following a professional plan. B. By joining a cross-country team. C. By keeping running secretly. D. By seeking help from her coach. 5. What can we learn about Switzer in the 1967 marathon? A. She reached her personal best. B. She broke a record set by men. C. She lent a hand to another runner. D. She was the first woman to complete it. 6. What is the result of Switzer’s 1977 running series? A. 261 Fearless was founded. B. She won many national honours. C. Women’s marathon entered the Olympics. D. Boston Marathon accepted women runners. 7. What is the best title of the text? A. Kathrine Switzer: A Pioneer in Women's Sports B. The 1967 Boston Marathon: A Race Against Time C. Seeking Possibilities: A Woman of Olympic Spirits D. Breaking Limits: The Story of a Marathon Champion 【答案】4. C 5. D 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Kathrine Switzer如何突破性别限制参与马拉松并推动女性运动发展的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第一段中“In high school, she began to take running-more seriously, often training in secret. (在高中时，她开始更加认真地对待跑步，经常秘密训练。)”可知，Switzer在小时候是通过秘密跑步来训练的。故选C。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段中“As there was nothing in the official rulebook preventing women from entering, she signed up for the 1967 race. She used the name “K. V. Switzer”. As a result, race officials did not realise she was a woman. (由于官方规则书中没有禁止女性参赛的规定，她报名参加了1967年的比赛。她使用了“K. V. Switzer”这个名字，因此比赛官员没有意识到她是女性。)”以及第三段“But when the race officials discovered she was a woman, they tried to stop her. Fortunately, her boyfriend Tom Miller and a group of men runners formed a sort of protective curtain around her. Finally, she completed the race in four hours and twenty minutes. (但当比赛官员发现她是女性时，他们试图阻止她参赛。幸运的是，她的男友Tom Miller和一群男跑者围在她周围，形成了一种保护屏障。最终，她以4小时20分钟的成绩完成了比赛。)”可知，当时官方规则没有禁止女性参赛，但比赛官员发现她是女性后试图阻止她，最后她完成了比赛，由此可推断她是第一个完成1967年波士顿马拉松的女性。故选D。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段中“In 1977, she created the Avon International Running Circuit, a worldwide series of women’s races that lay the groundwork for the women’s marathon to become an Olympic event in 1984. (1977年，她创立了Avon International Running Circuit，这是一系列全球性女子赛跑活动，为女子马拉松成为1984年奥运会项目奠定了基础。)”可知，Switzer在 1977 年创立的跑步系列赛事为1984年女子马拉松成为奥运会项目奠定了基础，也就是使得女子马拉松进入了奥运会。故选C。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是由文章第二段中“As there was nothing in the official rulebook preventing women from entering, she signed up for the 1967 race. She used the name “K. V. Switzer”. As a result, race officials did not realise she was a woman. (由于官方规则书中没有禁止女性参赛的规定，她报名参加了1967年的比赛。她使用了“K. V. Switzer”这个名字，因此比赛官员没有意识到她是女性。)”以及第三段“But when the race officials discovered she was a woman, they tried to stop her. Fortunately, her boyfriend Tom Miller and a group of men runners formed a sort of protective curtain around her. Finally, she completed the race in four hours and twenty minutes. (但当比赛官员发现她是女性时，他们试图阻止她参赛。幸运的是，她的男友Tom Miller和一群男跑者围在她周围，形成了一种保护屏障。最终，她以4小时20分钟的成绩完成了比赛。)”、第四段中“In 1977, she created the Avon International Running Circuit, a worldwide series of women’s races that lay the groundwork for the women’s marathon to become an Olympic event in 1984. (1977年，她创立了Avon International Running Circuit，这是一系列全球性的女子赛跑活动，为女子马拉松成为1984年奥运会项目奠定了基础。)”可知，文章主要讲述了Kathrine Switzer作为女性在体育领域的先驱，如何克服重重困难，推动女性参与马拉松等体育活动，并为女性马拉松成为奥运会项目奠定基础的故事。因此，最符合文章主旨的标题是“Kathrine Switzer: A Pioneer in Women’s Sports (Kathrine Switzer：女子体育的先驱)”。故选A。 C January 20, 2025, a Chinese tech company named DeepSeek made a new AI called DeepSeek-R1, which has emerged as a pioneer especially in educational technology. This smart program can solve math problems, write code, and answer questions like top models such as OpenAI’s GPT-4o, but it costs much less to build. It combines advanced machine learning methods to provide personalized learning solutions for students worldwide. Unlike traditional AI models that rely on pre-programmed answers, DeepSeek-R1 learns by trying many times and getting better, like how students practice maths. DeepSeek-R1 improves by itself by using reinforcement (强化) learning to simulate (模拟) human reasoning. This allows it to guide students through problem-solving step by step, much like a patient tutor. For example, when a student struggles with a math equation, DeepSeek-R1 doesn’t just give the answer; it breaks down the logic, identifies errors, and encourages critical thinking. The model’s applications extend beyond academics. In language learning, it analyzes (分析) students’ pronunciation through AI speech recognition and offers real-time feedback. For teachers, DeepSeek-R1 can provide lesson plans that agree with curriculum standards and even predict students’ learning difficulties based on historical data. Its “adaptive testing” feature creates customized quizzes that adjust difficulty according to individual progress. However, challenges remain. Critics argue that over-reliance on AI might reduce human interaction in education. DeepSeek’s developers address this by emphasizing its role as a “supplement (补充), not a replacement.” As Dr. Li, a DeepSeek researcher, stated, “Our goal is to free teachers from repetitive tasks so they can focus on inspiring creativity.” Looking ahead, DeepSeek aims to bring virtual reality (VR) into its platform, allowing students to explore historical events or scientific concepts in immersive 3D environments. While ethical debates about AI in education still exist, one thing is clear: tools like DeepSeek are reshaping how we learn, combining technology with human wisdom. 8. What makes DeepSeek-R1 different from traditional AI models? A. It uses pre-programmed answers. B. It focuses on memorization techniques. C. It creates fixed test patterns for all the students. D. It employs reinforcement learning for reasoning. 9. What does the underlined word “adaptive” in paragraph 3 most likely mean? A. fixed B. adjustable C. complex D. outdated 10. What’s the author’s attitude towards the use of DeepSeek-R1? A. skeptical B. critical C. positive D. indifferent 11. What is the main purpose of writing the passage? A. To advertise DeepSeek products. B To criticize the risks of DeepSeek in schools. C. To discuss the role of DeepSeek in transforming education. D. To compare different AI models. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述了中国AI公司DeepSeek及其最新模型DeepSeek-R1在教育技术中的应用、优势、挑战及未来发展方向。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Unlike traditional AI models that rely on pre-programmed answers, DeepSeek-R1 learns by trying many times and getting better, like how students practice maths. DeepSeek-R1 improves by itself by using reinforcement (强化) learning to simulate (模拟) human reasoning.(与依赖于预编程答案的传统人工智能模型不同，DeepSeek-R1通过多次尝试并变得更好来学习，就像学生练习数学一样。DeepSeek-R1通过使用强化学习来模拟人类推理，从而自我改进。)”可知，DeepSeek-R1与传统人工智能模型不同的地方在于它通过使用强化学习来模拟人类推理，从而自我改进。故选D。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词所在句中的“creates customized quizzes that adjust difficulty according to individual progress”可知，DeepSeek-R1可以创建定制的测验，根据个人进度调整难度，这说明测验是可以调整的，由此可推测出，adaptive testing表示“适应性测验”，adaptive意为“适应的”，与adjustable意思一致。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“While ethical debates about AI in education still exist, one thing is clear: tools like DeepSeek are reshaping how we learn, combining technology with human wisdom.(尽管关于教育中人工智能的伦理争论仍然存在，但有一点是明确的：DeepSeek等工具正在重塑我们的学习方式，将技术与人类智慧相结合。)”可知，作者认为人工智能工具结合技术与人类智慧，重塑学习方式，由此可推测出，作者对DeepSeek-R1持积极态度。故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“January 20, 2025, a Chinese tech company named DeepSeek made a new AI called DeepSeek-R1, which has emerged as a pioneer especially in educational technology.(2025年1月20日，一家名为DeepSeek的中国科技公司制造了一款名为DeepSeek-R1的新型人工智能，它已成为教育技术领域的先驱。)”并结合下文内容可知，本文主要讲述了DeepSeek-R1对教育的影响，介绍了它帮助学生解决问题的方式、给学生制定个性化测试、对教师的辅助作用、为学生创造沉浸式学习环境，由此可推测出，本文主要是讨论DeepSeek在改变教育上所起的作用。故选C。 D One of our biggest fears nowadays is that our kids might someday get lost in a “sea of technology” rather than experiencing the natural world. TV and computer games are leading to a serious disconnect between kids and the great outdoors. Each of us has a place in nature where we go sometimes, even if it is torn down. We cannot be the last generation to have that place. At this rate, kids who miss the sense of wonder outdoors will not grow up to be protectors of natural landscapes. “If the decrease in park use continues across North America, who will defend parks against encroachment (蚕食)?” asks Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods. Without having a nature experience, kids can turn out just fine, but they are missing out a huge enrichment of their lives. That applies to everything from their physical health and mental health, to stress levels, creativity and cognitive (认知的) skills. Experts predict modern kids will have poorer health than their parents — and a lack of outside play is surely part of it; research suggests that kids do better academically in schools with a nature exposure. Even a small outdoor experience can create wonder in a child. The three-year-old turning over his first rock realizes he is not alone in the world. Kids are not responsible. They are just over-protected and frightened. It is dangerous outdoors from time to time, but when repetitive stress from computers is replacing breaking an arm as a childhood rite (仪式) during the children’s growth, it can be more dangerous. We should help regain for our kids some of the freedom and joy of exploring nature and taking friendship in fields and woods that cement love, respect and need for landscape. As parents, we should devote some of our energies to taking our kids into nature. This could yet be our greatest cause. 12. What is the purpose of Paragraph 2? A. To show the great damage done to nature. B. To recommend a popular book to the public. C. To stress the necessity of kid’s going outdoors. D. To raise the awareness of environmental protection. 13. What may happen to children without a nature experience? A. They’ll surely become a failure. B. They’ll keep a high sense of wonder. C. They may suffer physically and mentally. D. They can develop better social skills. 14. What does the author think of children’s breaking an arm? A. It is not a bad thing in a sense. B. It is caused by the careless parents. C. It should be taken seriously. D. It could be prevented from happening. 15. What should parents do according to the author? A. Ensure kids’ freedom and joy. B. Value outdoor activities of kids. C. Bring kids science about nature. D. Advocate kids making friends. 【答案】12. C 13. C 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章作者从一些孩子缺乏对户外和自然的了解引发的一些问题，表达了对孩子成长经历的担忧。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Each of us has a place in nature where we go sometimes, even if it is torn down. We cannot be the last generation to have that place. At this rate, kids who miss the sense of wonder outdoors will not grow up to be protectors of natural landscapes. “If the decrease in park use continues across North America, who will defend parks against encroachment (蚕食)?” asks Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods.(我们每个人在大自然中都有一个地方，有时我们会去那里，即使它被拆毁了。我们不可能是拥有那个地方的最后一代人。照这样下去，那些错过户外奇观的孩子长大后将不会成为自然景观的保护者。“如果整个北美的公园使用率持续下降，谁来保护公园免受侵犯？”《森林里最后一个孩子》的作者理查德·洛夫问道)”可知，第二段写作目的是强调孩子们去户外的必要性——成为自然景观的保护者。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Without having a nature experience, kids can turn out just fine, but they are missing out a huge enrichment of their lives. That applies to everything from their physical health and mental health, to stress levels, creativity and cognitive (认知的) skills.(没有大自然的体验，孩子们可以表现得很好，但他们失去了生活中丰富的东西。这适用于他们的身体健康和心理健康，压力水平，创造力和认知技能)”可知，没有经历过自然的孩子在生理和心理上都不太健康。故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“It is dangerous outdoors from time to time, but when repetitive stress from computers is replacing breaking an arm as a childhood rite (仪式) during the children’s growth, it can be more dangerous.(户外有时很危险，但当孩子们在成长过程中，重复性的电脑压力取代了摔断手臂这样的童年仪式时，这可能更加危险)”可知，作者认为摔断手臂在某种程度上并不是一件坏事。故选A。 15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“We should help regain for our kids some of the freedom and joy of exploring nature and taking friendship in fields and woods that cement love, respect and need for landscape. As parents, we should devote some of our energies to taking our kids into nature. This could yet be our greatest cause.(我们应该帮助我们的孩子重新获得一些探索自然的自由和快乐，在田野和树林中建立友谊，巩固对景观的爱、尊重和需要。作为父母，我们应该投入一些精力把我们的孩子带入大自然。这可能是我们最伟大的事业)”可知，根据作者的观点，父母应该重视孩子的户外活动。故选B。 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。 As a writer who shares his journey online, I’m often asked how to begin a writing journey.

One day, Ryan, my thirteen-year-old son, approached me and said, “Mom, would you like to join in our bikeathon (自行车马拉松) next month?” As he told me the details of the bikeathon, I laughed out loudly. “What makes you think I could finish a 20-mile bikeathon?” I asked. Ryan looked straight in my eyes and said, “I know you can do it. You can be my iron (铁) mommy.” I almost laughed again. But my son was serious. So I promised him that I would consider it. When I began to think over his invitation, I surprisingly found that it would need months of training and new equipment, and that my bike needed fixing to work again. At that moment, I lost my interest in doing all of that. The next day, I went to kindergarten class. I played a familiar counting song and the kids were struggling to keep up with the beat at first. “Let’s do it again, and this time better. I know you can do it!” There it was again and again, and the kids made it to sing to the beat. Realizing my inspiring words “I know you can do it”, I was determined to have a try for the bikeathon. I told Ryan about it and asked him to give me some tips on how to get ready. I began training hard to get prepared. Then the bikeathon day came on a cool spring morning. Ryan and I set out for the site together. Ryan kept encouraging me on the road. However, as soon as I came to the starting point, which is on a hill overlooking our town and about twenty miles away from the finish line, I became a bit nervous. 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。 Then the bikeathon began. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Encouraged by Ryan and other bikers, I regained (重新获得) my energy. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文: Then the bikeathon began. As I pushed off down the hill, the wind rushed past my face, and my heart pounded wildly. The first few miles were thrilling, but soon, my legs began to ache, and doubt flashed through my mind. “Can I really make it?” I wondered. I felt like giving up. Every mile ahead became a challenge for me. I slowed down and almost stopped. Ryan, riding beside me, noticed my hesitation. “You’re doing great, Mom! Just keep going!” he said. Besides, other bikers passing by me also cheered me. Encouraged by Ryan and other bikers, I regained (重新获得) my energy. Taking a deep breath, I focused on the beat of my riding, just like how my kindergarten kids followed the beat of the counting song. The pain in my legs was still there, but the cheers around me made it feel lighter. Mile after mile, I pushed forward, repeating Ryan’s words in my head: “You can do it, Iron Mommy!” When I finally crossed the finish line, my heart was filled with pride. I had done it. That day, I truly became Ryan’s “iron mommy”. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了一位40岁的幼儿园教师妈妈，作为自认“毫无运动细胞”的普通女性，在十三岁儿子Ryan邀请她参加20英里自行车马拉松时，第一反应是哈哈大笑地反问“你怎么会觉得我能完成”。当第二天在幼儿园课堂上，她发现自己反复鼓励孩子们“我知道你们能做到”的话语时，突然意识到这恰是儿子对自己说过的“你可以成为我的铁人妈妈”——这个顿悟让她决定接受挑战。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然后自行车马拉松开始了。”可知，第一段可描写作者参加自行车马拉松的经过，刚开始比较愉快，但是一度的疲劳让作者想放弃，在作者几乎停下时，收到儿子和同行者的鼓励。 ②由第二段首句内容“在Ryan和其他骑自行车的人的鼓励下，我恢复了体力。”可知，第二段可描写作者克服身体的痛苦，最终完成了比赛而感到自豪。 2. 续写线索：比赛开始——愉快——痛苦——想放弃——鼓励——继续比赛——坚持——完成比赛——自豪 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①开始出发：push off/set off ②注意到：notice/observe/spot/take notice of ③鼓励：cheer/encourage 情绪类 ①令人兴奋的：thrilling/exciting ②自豪：pride /sense of accomplishment 【点睛】[高分句型1]As I pushed off down the hill, the wind rushed past my face, and my heart pounded wildly.(as引导的时间状语从句) [高分句型2]Taking a deep breath, I focused on the beat of my riding, just like how my kindergarten kids followed the beat of the counting song.(how引导的宾语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
