Luckily, the address is inside, so she returns it to the piano teacher who left it there. She then discovers that the piano teacher makes a habit of dropping bags around the city on purpose to make new friends. Directed by Neil Jordan, the actors are attractive. Grace Moretz is the waitress and Isabelle Huppert is the one who admires her. Thanks to them, Greta winds up being far more enjoyable than it has any right to be. The Aftermath The Aftermath is one of the few World War Ⅱ-related films. Based on Rhidian Brook’s novel, this touching romantic movie is starred by Keira Knightley, who is the wife of a British officer. She hates the Germans because her son was killed in an air raid. But is there a chance that a tall, dark and handsome man might persuade her to overcome her hate? Captain Marvel It took Marvel Studios a decade to finally make a female superhero. It’s also the first Marvel film to be directed by a woman, who has directed Half Nelson and Missisippi Grind. Captain Marvel is set in the 1990s. The Oscar-winning Brie Larson stars as Carol Danvers, a US Air Force fighter pilot, while Samuel L Jackson, as usual, plays Nick Fury. Dumbo Dumbo is a classic Disney cartoon, who has big ears and there have been plenty of those kind of movies in recent years. Burton always has inspirations to direct such kind of movies from Edward Scissorhands to Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children. Magical figures have always been his favorite characters. 1. What makes Captain Marvel special? A. Winning Oscar. B. Its female director. C. Time setting. D. A woman pilot. 2. Which film is better for a 7-year-old kid to watch? A. The Aftermath B. Captain Marvel C. Grete D. Dumbo 3. Where can you most probably read the text? A. Reader’s Digest B. Nature C. Scientific American D. National Geographic B To Rehan Staton, his childhood was a life of privilege — loving parents, a supportive big brother and a pleasant, private school education. Everything changed when his mother left the country and his father lost his job. He had to sleep with a heavy jacket on when it was cold. He was always hungry. He said he couldn't concentrate at school and would sleep during class. He went from straight. As to near the bottom of his class. A teacher told him he needed special education, which made him hate school. Staton spent his high school years as an excellent athlete, raining to become a professional boxer. He had won a lot of martial arts competitions. But a tragedy struck him in his senior year when Staton suffered serious tendonitis (肌腱炎), in both shoulders. He couldn’t lift either arm for months. His dream of becoming a professional player failed. He struggled to apply to colleges but was refused by all of them. Staton’s body slowly recovered from martial arts and he got a job as a rubbish collector. Many co-workers couldn't help but ask him a simple question, “What are you doing here? You’re smart. You are too young to be here. Go to college.” It was the first time someone outside his family had spoken highly of his intelligence. It was the co-workers that emboldened him to return to school. Several co-workers put Staton in touch with a professor at Bowie State University. The professor was impressed with their conversation and persuaded the admissions board to change its former decision. Going to college forced Staton’s older brother Reggie, to drop out. They both knew someone had to be working full time along with their dad. It was a decision Reggie made on his own. After receiving a 4.0 Staton succeeded in becoming a student at the University of Maryland. But he still had a long way to go to attend Harvard Law eventually... 4. What finally changed Rehan Staton’s happy childhood? A. His brother’s losing the job. B. His serious health problem. C. His father’s sudden death. D. His mother’s leaving the country. 5. What does the underlined word “emboldened” in the fourth paragraph mean? A. Force. B. Direct. C. Encourage. D. Accompany. 6. Why did Staton’s elder brother have to drop out of school? A. He wanted his brother to study further. B. His father asked him to leave school. C. He had lost interest in most lessons. D. He had to go out to find his mother. 7. What will the writer mainly talk about next? A. What Rehan Staton planned to do after entering Harvard. B. How Rehan Staton managed to be admitted to Harvard. C. Why Rehan Staton decided to choose to go to Harvard. D When Rehan Staton would be successful in Harvard Law. C There are 195 countries in the world today but almost none of them have purple on their national flag. So what’s wrong with purple? It’s such a popular color today. Why would no country use it in their flag? The answer is really quite simple. Purple was just for too expensive. The color purple has been associated with royalty power and wealth for centuries. Queen Elizabeth I forbade anyone except close members of the royal family to wear it. Purple’s high status comes from the rarity and cost of the dye (染料)originally used to produce it. Fabric traders got the dye from a small sea snail (海螺)that was only found in the Tyre region of the Mediterranean. More than 10,000 snails were needed to create just one gram of purple; not to mention a lot of work went into producing the dye, which made purple dye so expensive. Since only wealthy rulers could afford to buy and wear the color, it became associated with the royal family. Sometimes, however, the dye was too expensive even for royalty. Third century Roman Emperor Aurelio famously wouldn’t allow his wife to buy a scarf made from purple silk because it cost three times its weight in gold. A single pound of dye cost three pounds of gold, which equals 56,000 dollars today. Therefore, even the richest countries couldn’t spend that much having purple on their flags. The dye became more accessible to lower-class about a century and a half ago. In 1856, 18-year-old English chemist William Henry Perkin accidentally created a man-made purple compound (化合物)while attempting to produce an anti-malaria drug. He noticed that the compound could be used to dye fabrics, so he patented the dye, manufactured it and got rich. Purple dye was then mass-produced so everybody could afford it. Till now, a handful of new national flags have been designed and a few of them have chosen to use purple in their flag. So don’t be making any bets just yet. 8. Why was color purple expensive in the past? A. Because only royal families were allowed to wear purple. B. Because it took a long time to get purple dye from gold. C. Because purple was worth as much as its weight in gold. D. Because purple dye used to be rare and hard to produce. 9. Why did Roman Emperor Aurelio forbid his wife to buy a purple scarf? A. Because of poor quality. B. Because of long tradition. C. Because of bad taste. D. Because of high price. 10. What is purple's situation now? A. Purple has been widely used on national flags. B. Purple dye is now affordable to ordinary people. C. Royal family stop using purple because it’s too common. D. Fewer snails are used to produce purple dye than before. 11. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. No Purple Flags? B. Purple vs Gold C. How to Produce Purple Dye? D. The Birth of Purple Color D One of the most popular street food found in China is no doubt the barbecue. A new programme, called the Story of Chuaner, tells the story of this popular food cooked over hot coals on just about every street corner in cities and towns across the country. Barbecued meat is an important part of people’s nightlife. Shown on June 20, the programme has had more than 25 million clicks on the video site bilibili.com. To find the most popular barbecue stalls (摊位), the production team travelled to more than 500 locations in 30 cities across the country. Some viewers compare the Story of Chuaner to Midnight Diner, a Japanese TV programme telling stories from late-might informal Japanese bars. “I’m happy to hear this comparison because Midnight Diner is a good programme, and we share the same topic-night food,” the Story of Chuaner’s director Chen Yingjie said. “However, they are quite different.” He said that Midnight Diner focused more on food itself, though there was some conversation while people were eating. However, the night food scene of Chinese people means joy and a more lively atmosphere. People eating these barbecue snacks develop a feeling of connection, which can be a cure for loneliness. The barbecue, regarded as the most ordinary and common night street snack, is different from home-made food by mothers as that is a symbol of family and kinship. The barbecue is where you go to become connected to people in society. And unlike official business lunches, during which people are rather polite, the barbecue lets people relax with old friends and new friends, leaving a lasting impression of friendship. The world, as a whole, holds deep-rooted good feelings towards the barbecue, either for the taste or the warmth produced by fire. “What we should do is to present the Chinese barbecue just the way it is because with its special ingredients (食材), ways of cooking and more importantly, the special environment and people, the world will recognise it and might fall in love with it just as we do,” said Chen. 12. What do we know about the Story of Chuaner? A. It has become very popular on the Internet. B. It is thought highly of by most of the foreign tourists. C. It mainly talks about the most famous Chinese food. D. It shows the colourful nightlife in large cities of China. 13. In which way was the Story of Chuaner different from Midnight Diner? A. It showed more kinds of food. B. It focused more on the diners. C. It showed the eating habits. D. It was less popular than Midnight Diner. 14. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The importance of the barbecue to family. B. The influence of the barbecue on people’s manners. C. The influence of the barbecue on people’s lifestyle. D. The role of the barbecue in people’s relationship. 15. Why did Chen Yingie choose the barbecue as the topic of the series? A. To show the feature of Chinese food. B. To research a special way of cooking. C. To help the world understand China. D. To introduce the history of the barbecue. 七选五 Choosing the Right Path to Be a“Better”Person Life is a constant exercise in self-improvement．In the rush to achieve，the idea of being“better”can become lost sometimes．You may always wonder how to improve yourself and fulfill your dreams in an easier way． ___16___ Explore your talents． Everybody has some outstanding skills or interests．So it’s often necessary to be patient and try many things before you find one that suits you． ___17___ For example，people loving adventure may not be interested in the quiet chess club，but someone who enjoys other quiet activities might be．Determining who you enjoy being around may help you know what you’11 enjoy． ___18___ No matter how much money you make．you will not be happy if you spend your entire life doing something you hate．It’s important to at least devote some of your time to what makes you happy． If you’re particularly unhappy at your job，consider why．___19___ If you feel your job isn’t meaningful，or isn’t in line with your values，consider finding another job． Experience something new． Research has shown that when we’re in our comfort zone，we aren’t as productive as we are when we step just beyond it．___20___ Because of that，we may react slowly to our own positive experiences and interactions with others，even when those are little scary．Doing so can help you achieve more． A.

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 $ 2024级高一期中考试英语试题 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.

B 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了母亲地离家出走和父亲地失业改变了Rehan Staton的一切，高三时他又患上了严重的肌腱炎，使得他几个月内都抬不起胳膊，这导致他想成为职业运动员的梦想也随之破灭。为了生存，他被迫成为了一名清洁工，后来在工友的鼓励和帮助下，他重拾理想，努力考上大学的励志故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段第二句“Everything changed when his mother left the country and his father lost his job. (当他母亲离开了这个国家，他父亲失去了工作，一切都变了)”可知，改变了Staton的美好童年的是突如其来的家庭变故：母亲的离家出走和父亲的失业。故选D。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第四段第二至第四句中“What are you doing here? You’re smart. You are too young to be here. Go to college. (你在这儿干什么？你聪明。你来这里太年轻了。去上大学)”可知，许多工友认为Staton非常聪明，不应该这么年轻就做清洁工，他应该去考大学；根据文章第四段最后一句中的“him to return to school.”可推知，Staton的同事鼓励他重返学校。由此可推知，划线词emboldened意为“鼓励”。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段第二句“They both knew someone had to be working full time along with their dad. (他们都知道，必须有人全职陪着他们的父亲工作)”可知，他们都知道必须有人和他们的父亲一起全职工作（才能保证另一个顺利完成学业）。由此推知，Staton的哥哥是为了让他的弟弟能继续学习辍学了。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段第二句“But he still had a long way to go to attend Harvard Law eventually... (但要想进入哈佛法学院，他还有很长的路要走……)”可推知，作者接下来可能会描写Staton是如何在非常困难的情况下成功地考进哈佛法学院的。故选B。 C There are 195 countries in the world today but almost none of them have purple on their national flag. So what’s wrong with purple? It’s such a popular color today. Why would no country use it in their flag? The answer is really quite simple. Purple was just for too expensive. The color purple has been associated with royalty power and wealth for centuries. Queen Elizabeth I forbade anyone except close members of the royal family to wear it. Purple’s high status comes from the rarity and cost of the dye (染料)originally used to produce it. Fabric traders got the dye from a small sea snail (海螺)that was only found in the Tyre region of the Mediterranean. More than 10,000 snails were needed to create just one gram of purple; not to mention a lot of work went into producing the dye, which made purple dye so expensive. Since only wealthy rulers could afford to buy and wear the color, it became associated with the royal family. Sometimes, however, the dye was too expensive even for royalty. Third century Roman Emperor Aurelio famously wouldn’t allow his wife to buy a scarf made from purple silk because it cost three times its weight in gold. A single pound of dye cost three pounds of gold, which equals 56,000 dollars today. Therefore, even the richest countries couldn’t spend that much having purple on their flags. The dye became more accessible to lower-class about a century and a half ago. In 1856, 18-year-old English chemist William Henry Perkin accidentally created a man-made purple compound (化合物)while attempting to produce an anti-malaria drug. He noticed that the compound could be used to dye fabrics, so he patented the dye, manufactured it and got rich. Purple dye was then mass-produced so everybody could afford it. Till now, a handful of new national flags have been designed and a few of them have chosen to use purple in their flag. So don’t be making any bets just yet. 8. Why was color purple expensive in the past? A. Because only royal families were allowed to wear purple. B. Because it took a long time to get purple dye from gold. C. Because purple was worth as much as its weight in gold. D. Because purple dye used to be rare and hard to produce. 9. Why did Roman Emperor Aurelio forbid his wife to buy a purple scarf? A. Because of poor quality. B. Because of long tradition. C. Because of bad taste. D. Because of high price. 10. What is purple's situation now? A. Purple has been widely used on national flags. B. Purple dye is now affordable to ordinary people. C. Royal family stop using purple because it’s too common. D. Fewer snails are used to produce purple dye than before. 11. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. No Purple Flags? B. Purple vs Gold C. How to Produce Purple Dye? D. The Birth of Purple Color 【答案】8. D 9. D 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。本文讲述了几乎没有哪个国家的国旗上有紫色，引出紫色价格昂贵。然后分析紫色的发展，但在科学家的努力下，终于使紫色变得普通化和大众化。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段第四句“More than 10,000 snails were needed to create just one gram of purple; not to mention a lot of work went into producing the dye, which made purple dye so expensive.”（面料商人从地中海的提尔地区发现的小海螺得到了这种染料。仅仅制造一克紫色，就需要超过10,000只蜗牛。更不用说生产这种染料需要的大量工作。这让紫色价格昂贵）可知过去紫色很贵是因为紫色染料过去很稀有，很难生产。故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段第二句“Third century Roman …because it cost three times its weight in gold. A single pound of dye cost three pounds of gold, which equals 56,000 dollars today.”（罗马皇帝不允许妻子购买紫色丝绸制成的围巾，因为它的重量是黄金的三倍。一磅染料要花三磅金，今天就等于56,000美元）可知罗马皇帝Aurelio禁止他的妻子买紫色围巾是因为其昂贵的价格。故选D项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段和最后一段，“Purple dye was then mass-produced so everybody could afford it.”（紫色现在被大量生产，每个人都可以负担的起）可知现在普通人也能买得起紫色染料了。故选B项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“There are 195 countries in the world today but almost none of them have purple on their national flag…The answer is really quite simple. Purple was just for too expensive.”可知，开篇讲195个国家几乎很少国旗上有紫色，引出紫色价格昂贵，然后分析紫色的发展。A项“没有紫色的国旗”概括文章主题又用反问句吸引读者，最适合作文章标题。故选A项。 【点睛】阅读理解题的解题方法，首先，宏观浏览，掌握大意。不要困扰在个别词汇的翻译上。其次，读懂题干，带着问题再去微观细读。最后，分析句子，慎思明辨。阅读理解题之细节理解解题要注意：1.排除干扰项，突出主题。2.按文章的体裁，作者写作的组织模式及有关信息，预测应该到何处寻找自己所需要的事实。3.将注意力放在寻找你所需要的细节上，快速浏览，发现细节，放慢速度，仔细核对比较，直到找到正确答案。 D One of the most popular street food found in China is no doubt the barbecue. A new programme, called the Story of Chuaner, tells the story of this popular food cooked over hot coals on just about every street corner in cities and towns across the country. Barbecued meat is an important part of people’s nightlife. Shown on June 20, the programme has had more than 25 million clicks on the video site bilibili.com. To find the most popular barbecue stalls (摊位), the production team travelled to more than 500 locations in 30 cities across the country. Some viewers compare the Story of Chuaner to Midnight Diner, a Japanese TV programme telling stories from late-might informal Japanese bars. “I’m happy to hear this comparison because Midnight Diner is a good programme, and we share the same topic-night food,” the Story of Chuaner’s director Chen Yingjie said. “However, they are quite different.” He said that Midnight Diner focused more on food itself, though there was some conversation while people were eating. However, the night food scene of Chinese people means joy and a more lively atmosphere. People eating these barbecue snacks develop a feeling of connection, which can be a cure for loneliness. The barbecue, regarded as the most ordinary and common night street snack, is different from home-made food by mothers as that is a symbol of family and kinship. The barbecue is where you go to become connected to people in society. And unlike official business lunches, during which people are rather polite, the barbecue lets people relax with old friends and new friends, leaving a lasting impression of friendship. The world, as a whole, holds deep-rooted good feelings towards the barbecue, either for the taste or the warmth produced by fire. “What we should do is to present the Chinese barbecue just the way it is because with its special ingredients (食材), ways of cooking and more importantly, the special environment and people, the world will recognise it and might fall in love with it just as we do,” said Chen. 12. What do we know about the Story of Chuaner? A. It has become very popular on the Internet. B. It is thought highly of by most of the foreign tourists. C. It mainly talks about the most famous Chinese food. D. It shows the colourful nightlife in large cities of China. 13. In which way was the Story of Chuaner different from Midnight Diner? A. It showed more kinds of food. B. It focused more on the diners. C. It showed the eating habits. D. It was less popular than Midnight Diner. 14. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The importance of the barbecue to family. B. The influence of the barbecue on people’s manners. C. The influence of the barbecue on people’s lifestyle. D. The role of the barbecue in people’s relationship. 15. Why did Chen Yingie choose the barbecue as the topic of the series? A. To show the feature of Chinese food. B. To research a special way of cooking. C. To help the world understand China. D. To introduce the history of the barbecue. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了美食节目《人生一串》收获了观众的喜爱，它聚焦吃烧烤的人，呈现烧烤在社会人际关系构建中的作用，让世界更了解中国烧烤。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Shown on June 20, the programme has had more than 25 million clicks on the video site bilibili.com.”（该节目于6月20日播出，在视频网站bilibili.com上的点击量已超过2500万。）可知，许多人观看了《人生一串》节目，该节目在网上非常受欢迎。故选A项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“He said that Midnight Diner focused more on food itself, though there was some conversation while people were eating. However, the night food scene of Chinese people means joy and a more lively atmosphere. People eating these barbecue snacks develop a feeling of connection, which can be a cure for loneliness.”（他说，《深夜食堂》更关注食物本身，尽管人们在吃东西的时候会有一些对话。然而，中国人吃夜宵的场面意味着欢乐和更热闹的气氛。吃这些烧烤小吃的人会产生一种联结感，这可以治愈孤独感。）可知，《深夜食堂》聚焦食物本身，而《人生一串》聚焦食客的情绪和情感。由此推知，两者的不同之处在于《人生一串》更关注食客。故选B项。 【14题详解】 段落大意题。根据第四段“The barbecue, regarded as the most ordinary and common night street snack, is different from home-made food by mothers as that is a symbol of family and kinship. The barbecue is where you go to become connected to people in society. And unlike official business lunches, during which people are rather polite, the barbecue lets people relax with old friends and new friends, leaving a lasting impression of friendship.”（烧烤被认为是最普通、最常见的夜间街头小吃，它不同于母亲自制的食物，因为它是家庭和亲情的象征。烧烤是你与社会上的人建立联系的地方。不像在正式的商务午餐中，人们都很有礼貌，烧烤让人们与老朋友和新朋友一起放松，留下持久的友谊印象。）可知，本段谈论了烧烤不同于家庭食物，也不同于正式的商务餐，它以一种轻松的方式让人与社会上的其他人建立联系，建立友谊。因此，本段主要围绕的是烧烤在人际关系中的作用。故选D项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中节目导演的话“What we should do is to present the Chinese barbecue just the way it is because with its special ingredients (食材), ways of cooking and more importantly, the special environment and people, the world will recognise it and might fall in love with it just as we do”（我们应该做的是把中国烧烤呈现出它本来的样子，因为它有特殊的食材、烹饪方式，更重要的是，特殊的环境和人，世界会认识它，可能会像我们一样爱上它）可知，导演选择烧烤为主题，是要呈现中国烧烤的特色以及孕育它的环境和人，让世界认识它、爱上它。由此可知，导演的目的在于让世界了解中国。故选C项。 七选五 Choosing the Right Path to Be a“Better”Person Life is a constant exercise in self-improvement．In the rush to achieve，the idea of being“better”can become lost sometimes．You may always wonder how to improve yourself and fulfill your dreams in an easier way． ___16___ Explore your talents． Everybody has some outstanding skills or interests．So it’s often necessary to be patient and try many things before you find one that suits you． ___17___ For example，people loving adventure may not be interested in the quiet chess club，but someone who enjoys other quiet activities might be．Determining who you enjoy being around may help you know what you’11 enjoy． ___18___ No matter how much money you make．you will not be happy if you spend your entire life doing something you hate．It’s important to at least devote some of your time to what makes you happy． If you’re particularly unhappy at your job，consider why．___19___ If you feel your job isn’t meaningful，or isn’t in line with your values，consider finding another job． Experience something new． Research has shown that when we’re in our comfort zone，we aren’t as productive as we are when we step just beyond it．___20___ Because of that，we may react slowly to our own positive experiences and interactions with others，even when those are little scary．Doing so can help you achieve more． A. Do what you love． B. Here are some tips for you． C. Register in a class you’re interested in． D. Humans adapt very quickly to positive events． E It’s possible that some changes may change your feeling． F. Similar types of people may be attracted to the same activities． G. Try not to allow yourself to focus so much on a certain aspect of your life． 【答案】16. B 17. C 18. A 19. E 20. D 【解析】 【分析】文章主要是提了一些建议，关于如何选择正确道路成为一个更好的人。 【16题详解】 B 根据前一句You may always wonder how to improve yourself and fulfill your dreams in an easier way．可知作者是想给别人提出如何更容易地去实现梦想的建议，故选B。 【17题详解】 C 根据后文的举例可知，喜欢冒险的人可能就不喜欢安静的象棋俱乐部，也就是说，注册你感兴趣的活动。故选C。 【18题详解】 A 本题属于标题性的选择，根据本段的内容可知，你要做你喜欢的事情。故选A。 【19题详解】 E 根据后一句If you feel your job isn’t meaningful，or isn’t in line with your values，consider finding another job．可知你不喜欢你的工作，可以考虑再找一份，所以做出一些改变就会改变你自己的内心感受，故选E。 【20题详解】 D 根据后一句Because of that，we may react slowly to our own positive experiences and interactions with others，可知人类能够快速适应积极的事情，故选D。 【名师点睛】 七选五的解题技巧 1.先看选项。跟完形填空不一样，七选五的答案选项较少，并且给出的都是句子，因此，我们可以通过句子的完整性或者句子后面的标点符号来判断该句在文章中的位置。另外，通过阅读选项，有可能找出跟其他选项表达完全不同意思的句子，这样的话我们就可以直接将该选项排除。 2.再看空前空后。由于七选五空出的是整个句子，而这些句子与句子之间，必然有一种联系，因此我们可以通过选项中某个名词或动词跟空前或空后的一致性或者相关性来确定这两个句子之间有一种关联性，从而选择正确的答案。 3.注意代词或定冠词。在做这类题目的时候，一定要注意句子中出现的人称代词或者指示代词，因为我们知道，代词是指代一个名词或者一个句子的，然后通过代词在句子中所做的成分我们可以推断出它指代的句子的类型，我们要做的就是从选项中找这类句型就可以了。 4.注意一些特殊疑问词。如果选项中或空前出现特殊疑问词，一定要把这句话仔细读几遍，因为对于不同特殊疑问词的回答方式是不一样的，比如对why的回答，后面要有because等表原因的词，对when的回答，后面要有表时间的状语，对where的回答，后面要有表地点的名词，对how的回答，后面要有方式状语等。 5.注意一些连词。如一些表示转折的连词，but，However，yet，though，nevertheless等，另外还有一些表示并列关系的连词如and，also，as well as，neither nor，either or，not only...but also，on one hand....on the other hand等。因为这些连词可以表现句子与句子之间的关系，通过不同的连词我们可以推知句子与句子之间不同的关系。 第三部分 完形填空 (共15小题；每小题 1 分，共 15分) I was feeling terrible after I was diagnosed(诊断)with cancer.

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 $
