(然而，她的毅力和决心使她激励了数百万人。)”，此处“perseverance and determination”直接对应“Strong-willed(意志坚定的)”；第五段提到“Off the court, Serena is a devoted mother and philanthropist (慈善家). She has supported various charitable causes, including education and disaster relief. (场外，Serena是一位忠诚的母亲和慈善家。她支持各种慈善事业，包括教育和救灾。)”，“devoted”和“supported various charitable causes”体现了她对家庭和社会的“投入与奉献”，与“committed(尽责的)”语义一致。故选D项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章前两段介绍Serena的网球成就，后三段强调她在性别平等、慈善事业等领域的影响，末段总结“her legend extends far beyond tennis(她的传奇远超网球)”。所以B选项More Than Just a Tennis Champion(不仅仅是网球冠军) 准确概括了“赛场成就 + 社会影响”的双重主题。故选B项。 C DeepSeek, a Chinese artificial intelligence (AI) startup, made headlines worldwide after it topped app download charts. Its popularity and potential rattled investors of chip (芯片) giants like Nvidia, as it decreased their market value by billions of dollars — and called into question whether American firms would dominate the booming AI market, as many assumed they would. In recent years, AI has become best known as the tech behind chatbots such as ChatGPT — and DeepSeek — also known as generative AI. These programs learn from huge amounts of data, including online text and images, to be able to make new content. DeepSeek is reportedly as powerful as ChatGPT in tasks including mathematics and coding. Like ChatGPT, it is a “reasoning” model. These models produce responses, simulating (模拟) how humans reason through problems or ideas. DeepSeek says it has been able to do this cheaply — researchers behind it claim it cost $6 million to train, a small part of the “over $100 million” mentioned by OpenAI boss Sam Altman when discussing ChatGPT. It can also minimize the impact of US restrictions on the most powerful chips reaching China. The founder of DeepSeek reportedly built up a store of Nvidia A100 chips, which have been banned from export to China since September 2022. some experts believe he paired these chips with cheaper, less complex ones — ending up with a much more efficient process. DeepSeek also uses less memory than its opponents, eventually reducing the cost to perform tasks for users. That combination of performance and lower cost helped DeepSeek’s AI assistant become the most-downloaded free app on Apple’s App Store when it was released in the US. 8. What does the underlined word “rattled” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Encouraged. B. Upset. C. Controlled. D. Excited. 9. What key advantage does DeepSeek hold over its competitors? A. Superior data processing speed. B. Advanced human-like reasoning ability. C. Remarkably lower training and operational costs. D. Complete independence from US chip restrictions. 10. How did DeepSeek overcome chip limitations? A. By making simpler chips. B. By exporting A100 chips. C. By mixing A100 with cheaper chips. D. By banning advanced chips. 11 Which of the following best summarizes DeepSeek’s impact on the AI industry? A. Expensive training is key to strong AI. B. Small models can defeat larger ones. C. U. S. firms remain AI leaders. D. Low-cost innovation reshapes AI competition. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述中国AI初创公司DeepSeek以低成本高效训练模式崛起，冲击行业格局，重塑AI竞争。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。 根据第二段“Its popularity and potential rattled investors of chip giants like Nvidia, as it decreased their market value by billions of dollars(其受欢迎程度和潜力使英伟达等芯片巨头的投资者rattled，因为这使其市值减少了数十亿美元)”可知，“decreased their market value(市值下跌)”是负面结果，故rattled应表示“使不安”，与B项“Upset(使心烦意乱)”语义一致。故选B项。 9题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第五段“DeepSeek says it has been able to do this cheaply—researchers behind it claim it cost $6 million to train, a small part of the ‘over $100 million’ mentioned by OpenAI boss’ mentioned by OpenAI boss Sam Altman when discussing ChatGPT. (DeepSeek表示，它已经能够以低廉成本做到这一点——其背后的研究人员声称，训练成本为600万美元，这只是OpenAI老板Sam Altman在讨论ChatGPT时提到的‘超过1亿美元’的一小部分。)”和第七段“DeepSeek also uses less memory than its opponents, eventually reducing the cost to perform tasks for users.(DeepSeek也比对手使用更少的内存，最终降低了用户执行任务的成本。)”可知，其核心优势是训练和运营成本显著更低。故选C项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第六段“some experts believe he paired these chips with cheaper, less complex ones— ending up with a much more efficient process.(一些专家认为，他将这些芯片与更便宜、更简单的芯片配对，最终得到了一个更高效的过程。)”以及上文内容可知，DeepSeek通过混合使用A100芯片和低成本芯片来克服芯片限制。故选C项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。 通读全文可知，文章围绕DeepSeek以600万美元低成本训练 AI（对比OpenAI的上亿美元）并登顶下载榜展开，末段“combination of performance and lower costc(性能与低成本的结合)”直接点明其通过低成本创新冲击行业。所以D项Low-cost innovation reshapes AI competition(低成本创新重塑AI竞争)符合全文核心。故选D项。 D For years, health-aware consumers have chosen brown rice, believing its complete bran (麸皮) layer makes it a superior choice. But a new study from Michigan State University reveals an unsettling truth — this “healthier” alternative contains nearly 40% more poisonous arsenic (砷), a known substance linked to bladder, lung, and skin cancers, than processed white rice. “Rice bran and brown rice are shown to have a higher arsenic content than the grain endosperm (胚乳) or white rice,” the study warns. Rice absorbs arsenic from soil more efficiently than nearly any other crop. Once inside the plant, arsenic stays in the bran layer — the very component removed when turning brown rice into white. The findings expose a critical contradiction in modern nutrition: a food praised for its health benefits might actually pose real risks, particularly to weak groups like babies. Is the push for “natural” and “whole” foods unintentionally harming the youngest consumers? The researchers analyzed rice consumption across age groups and found that children aged 6-24 months who regularly eat brown rice may go beyond safe arsenic intake limits by nearly 40%. The daily amount for some babies reached 0.295 micrograms per kilogram of body weight. While adults face a very small risk from occasional brown rice consumption, the study warns that heavy rice eaters — especially those on gluten-free (无麸质的) diets or with poor nutrition — could also build up dangerous amounts over time. The study found that bran alone contains arsenic at levels 10 times higher than white rice itself. This is a worrying thing for products like brown rice syrup (糖浆) , which has already been linked to 30 times more arsenic in some baby food. Could parents unknowingly be poisoning their children while trying to feed them “healthier” options? With mounting evidence that foods marketed as “wholesome” may carry hidden poisonous substances, will law makers finally demand clearer labeling — or will parents remain in the dark? 12. Why do health-aware consumers choose brown rice? A. Because it has a lower arsenic content. B. Because they believe its bran layer is beneficial. C. Because it tastes better than white rice. D. Because it is processed more carefully. 13. What can we learn from paragraph 3? A. Modern nutrition is completely wrong. B. “Natural” and “whole” foods are always healthy. C. Some seemingly healthy foods may be risky. D. Babies and young children should only eat white rice. 14. What is the writer’s attitude towards “clearer labeling”? A. Uncertain. B. Objective. C. Negative. D. Approving. 15. What is the text mainly about? A. A comparison between brown rice and white rice. B. The importance of food safety for children. C. A new study about the arsenic content in brown rice and its impacts. D. The selection of appropriate rice for different age groups. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍密歇根州立大学的新研究发现糙米含砷量更高及其影响。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“For years, health-aware consumers have chosen brown rice, believing its complete bran layer makes it a superior choice.(多年来，有健康意识的消费者选择糙米，认为其完整的麸皮层使其成为更好的选择)”可知，消费者选择糙米是因为相信其麸皮层有益。故选B项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“The findings expose a critical contradiction in modern nutrition: a food praised for its health benefits might actually pose real risks, particularly to weak groups like babies.(这些发现揭示了现代营养学中的一个关键矛盾：一种因健康益处而受到赞誉的食物实际上可能构成真正的风险，尤其是对婴儿等弱势群体)”可知，一些看似健康的食物可能有风险。故选C项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“With mounting evidence that foods marketed as “wholesome” may carry hidden poisonous substances, will law makers finally demand clearer labeling — or will parents remain in the dark?(随着越来越多的证据表明，被标榜为“健康”的食品可能含有隐藏的有毒物质，立法者会最终要求更清晰的标签吗——还是父母会一直被蒙在鼓里？)”可知，作者希望立法者要求更清晰的标签，对“更清晰的标签”持赞同态度。故选D项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中的“But a new study from Michigan State University reveals an unsettling truth — this “healthier” alternative contains nearly 40% more poisonous arsenic, a known substance linked to bladder, lung, and skin cancers, than processed white rice.(但密歇根州立大学的一项新研究揭示了一个令人不安的事实——这种“更健康”的替代品比加工过的白米含有近40%的有毒砷，砷是一种已知的与膀胱癌、肺癌和皮肤癌有关的物质)”以及后文对研究结果的详细阐述可知，文章主要介绍关于糙米中砷含量及其影响的新研究。故选C项。 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。 Some athletes are quick to hit the panic button when a session doesn’t turn out well. Other athletes are better able to manage. The two groups have what Dr. Carol Duck refers to as a fixed mindset and a growth mindset respectively. ___16___ In contrast, those who have a growth mindset tend to rise to challenges. The two mindsets have important practical consequences. Students with a growth mindset achieve higher levels of success in school, regardless of their initial talent. A growth mindset also lessens the negative effects of financial difficulties on school success. ___17___ That’s why coaches should work systematically to instill (灌输) a growth mindset in athletes. Here are methods that may help. ___18___ Before each important workout, remind athletes that its purpose is not to assess ability but to facilitate improvement. Simply getting the work done will be sufficient to fulfill its purpose. Praise effort and persistence (坚持), not performance. Praising a good performance as proof of ability strengthens a fixed mindset Therefore, resist the urge to congratulate athletes when they are excellent in a workout. ___19___ Encourage the use of process-focused principle. Athletes with a fixed mindset attach importance to outcomes. ___20___ They focus more on the process. It always makes sense for coaches to emphasize and praise process. The good news is that a growth mindset can be successfully trained in athletes. Remember that it is up to coaches to be aware of its significance and apply suitable approaches whenever necessary. A. Carry out each workout successfully. B. The growth-minded are just the opposite. C. Redefine the concept of a successful workout. D. The former resist challenges, which they view as tests. E. Individuals with a growth mindset view talent as its own reward. F. You can bet that a growth mindset affects athletic success similarly. G. Instead, give positive feedback only when they refuse to give in faced with hardships. 【答案】16. D 17. F 18. C 19. G 20. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章对比固定心态与成长心态，阐述后者对运动员的积极影响，并给出培养成长心态的方法。 【16题详解】 由上文“The two groups have what Dr. Carol Duck refers to as a fixed mindset and a growth mindset respectively.(这两组人分别被卡罗尔・达克博士称为固定心态和成长心态。)”可知，此处需分别阐述两种心态的特点。D项The former resist challenges, which they view as tests.(前者抗拒挑战，将其视为考验。)中“The former”指代“fixed mindset”，“resist challenges”与后文“growth mindset tend to rise to challenges”形成对比，通过“抗拒 — 迎接”的对立关系，衔接“固定心态 — 成长心态”的定义说明，符合“分述概念 — 对比特征”的逻辑。故选D项。 【17题详解】 由上文“A growth mindset also lessens the negative effects of financial difficulties on school success.(成长心态还能减轻经济困难对学业成功的负面影响。)”及下文“That’s why coaches should work systematically to instill (灌输) a growth mindset in athletes.(这就是为什么教练应该系统地向运动员灌输成长心态。)”可知，此处需建立“成长心态对学业的影响”与“运动领域”的关联。F项You can bet that a growth mindset affects athletic success similarly.(可以肯定的是，成长心态对运动成功的影响也是如此。) 中“affects athletic success similarly”将学业领域的结论延伸至运动领域，“that’s why”衔接前文原因与后文教练的行动，形成“学业案例 — 运动推论 — 实践意义”的逻辑链条，凸显成长心态在不同场景的普适性。故选F项。 【18题详解】 由下文“Before each important workout, remind athletes that its purpose is not to assess ability but to facilitate improvement. (在每次重要的锻炼之前，提醒运动员，锻炼的目的不是评估能力，而是促进进步。)”可知，此处需总述对“成功训练”概念的重新定义。C项Redefine the concept of a successful workout.(重新定义成功训练的概念。) 中“Redefine”对应后文“not to assess ability but to facilitate improvement”的内涵转变，“successful workout”统领段落中“训练目的”的论述，形成“标题 — 内容”的总分结构，符合“提出方法 — 解释内涵”的逻辑。故选C项。 【19题详解】 由上文“Praising a good performance as proof of ability strengthens a fixed mindset Therefore, resist the urge to congratulate athletes when they are excellent in a workout. (称赞良好的表现作为能力的证明会强化一种固定的心态。因此，当运动员在锻炼中表现出色时，不要急于祝贺他们。)”可知，此处需说明正确的表扬方式。G项Instead, give positive feedback only when they refuse to give in faced with hardships.(相反，仅在他们面对困难不屈服时给予积极反馈。)中Instead表转折，与“resist the urge to congratulate”形成“否定错误做法 — 肯定正确做法”的对比，“refuse to give in faced with hardships”对应“praise effort and persistence”的段落主题，衔接“理论指导 — 具体行为”的逻辑。故选G项。 【20题详解】 由上文“Athletes with a fixed mindset attach importance to outcomes.(有固定心态的运动员重视结果。)”及下文“They focus more on the process.(他们更关注过程。)”可知，此处需说明成长心态运动员的不同关注点。B项The growth-minded are just the opposite.(有成长心态的人恰恰相反。)中“just the opposite”承接“fixed mindset attach importance to outcomes”，通过对比引出“关注过程”的特点，“the growth-minded”与后文They形成指代衔接，符合“固定心态 — 成长心态”的对比论证逻辑。故选B项。 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Lily was a shy girl who often felt like she wasn’t “enough”.

Although she lives across the country, the bond between us has always been strong. Her diagnosis (诊断) in November made me extremely upset. But after she had surgery to remove the cancer, we were hopeful until today, when her scans came out, showing that the cancer had spread to her liver. The doctor said treatment was no longer an option. I was at work when I got the news. It was my mother who called me, her voice trembling with every word. I tried to comfort her, but the weight of the terrible news was insufferable. Both of us were choking back tears. The moment the phone was hung up, I stumbled (跌跌撞撞) outside to my car, took the driver’s seat and finally broke down in tears, grief (悲伤) pouring out of me in waves. I didn’t care who might hear—I just needed to let it out. Outside the window, it was like a busy party where people kept coming and going. The entrance of the store was crowded, with customers rushing in and out as usual. Some regular customers from our store must have seen me in that awkward moment, but I was too lost in my sadness to notice anyone around. After what seemed like hours, I had to pull myself together, wiping my tears and taking deep breaths before returning to work. I mechanically went about my business with a forced smile, helping customers and stocking shelves, my mind a thousand miles away. Shortly after, I was approached by one of my colleagues, saying there was something to my car. I had him take it off my car and bring it in to me. It was a bunch of beautiful and delicate flowers. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Beside was a card and I opened it. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I phoned the number on the card. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Beside was a card and I opened it. On the card were the words, “We noticed your sadness and wanted to bring some sunshine. Sending you love and strength.” There was only a phone number at the bottom. I stared at it, a lump forming in my throat. The beautiful bouquet of lilies and daisies beside me released a sweet fragrance, as if trying to wrap me in a warm embrace. I couldn’t believe that a stranger had taken the time to offer comfort during my darkest hour. I phoned the number on the card. A gentle voice answered on the second ring. “Hello?” she said. “This is the one who got your flowers,” I replied, my voice thick with emotion. She introduced herself as Emily, a regular customer. “I saw you crying—lost my mom to cancer too,” she said softly. We talked about grief and small comforts. Her words soothed me like warm tea. “You’re not alone,” she said. Hanging up, I held the flowers, feeling a tiny spark of light in the darkness. 【解析】 【导语】本文以情感为线索展开，讲述了作者得知祖母癌症恶化后悲痛不已，在停车场崩溃大哭时被陌生顾客看到，随后收到一束鲜花和卡片，最终通过电话与送花者交流并获得慰藉的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“旁边有一张卡片，我打开了它。”可知，第一段可描写卡片上的内容、作者的感受以及对鲜花的细节描写，突出陌生人善意带来的触动。 ②由第二段首句内容“我拨通了卡片上的电话。”可知，第二段可描写电话中与送花者的对话，展现对方的共情与安慰，以及作者内心的变化。 2.续写线索：“我”读卡片内容——感动——打电话——“我们”交流经历——共情——获得温暖 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①打开卡片：opened it/unfolded the card ②拨打电话：phoned the number/called the contact ③提供安慰：offer comfort/give solace ④倾诉悲伤：talked about grief / shared our sorrow 情绪类 ①感动：a lump forming in my throat/touched deeply ②安慰：soothed me like warm tea/brought consolation 【点睛】【高分句型1】The beautiful bouquet of lilies and daisies beside me released a sweet fragrance, as if trying to wrap me in a warm embrace.（运用了as if引导的方式状语从句的省略） 【高分句型2】Hanging up, I held the flowers, feeling a tiny spark of light in the darkness.（运用了现在分词短语作伴随状语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 无锡市普通高中2025年春学期高二期终调研考试试题 英语 2025.06 注意事项及说明： 1.试卷共150分，考试时间120分钟。 2.答案一律写在答题卡上。考试结束时，上交答题卡。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节 （共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

Serena Williams: A Mother’s Sacrifice in Tennis C DeepSeek, a Chinese artificial intelligence (AI) startup, made headlines worldwide after it topped app download charts. Its popularity and potential rattled investors of chip (芯片) giants like Nvidia, as it decreased their market value by billions of dollars — and called into question whether American firms would dominate the booming AI market, as many assumed they would. In recent years, AI has become best known as the tech behind chatbots such as ChatGPT — and DeepSeek — also known as generative AI. These programs learn from huge amounts of data, including online text and images, to be able to make new content. DeepSeek is reportedly as powerful as ChatGPT in tasks including mathematics and coding. Like ChatGPT, it is a “reasoning” model. These models produce responses, simulating (模拟) how humans reason through problems or ideas. DeepSeek says it has been able to do this cheaply — researchers behind it claim it cost $6 million to train, a small part of the “over $100 million” mentioned by OpenAI boss Sam Altman when discussing ChatGPT. It can also minimize the impact of US restrictions on the most powerful chips reaching China. The founder of DeepSeek reportedly built up a store of Nvidia A100 chips, which have been banned from export to China since September 2022. some experts believe he paired these chips with cheaper, less complex ones — ending up with a much more efficient process. DeepSeek also uses less memory than its opponents, eventually reducing the cost to perform tasks for users. That combination of performance and lower cost helped DeepSeek’s AI assistant become the most-downloaded free app on Apple’s App Store when it was released in the US. 8. What does the underlined word “rattled” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Encouraged. B. Upset. C. Controlled. D. Excited. 9. What key advantage does DeepSeek hold over its competitors? A. Superior data processing speed. B. Advanced human-like reasoning ability. C. Remarkably lower training and operational costs. D. Complete independence from US chip restrictions. 10. How did DeepSeek overcome chip limitations? A. By making simpler chips. B. By exporting A100 chips. C. By mixing A100 with cheaper chips. D. By banning advanced chips. 11. Which of the following best summarizes DeepSeek’s impact on the AI industry? A. Expensive training is key to strong AI. B. Small models can defeat larger ones. C. U. S. firms remain AI leaders. D. Low-cost innovation reshapes AI competition. D For years, health-aware consumers have chosen brown rice, believing its complete bran (麸皮) layer makes it a superior choice. But a new study from Michigan State University reveals an unsettling truth — this “healthier” alternative contains nearly 40% more poisonous arsenic (砷), a known substance linked to bladder, lung, and skin cancers, than processed white rice. “Rice bran and brown rice are shown to have a higher arsenic content than the grain endosperm (胚乳) or white rice,” the study warns. Rice absorbs arsenic from soil more efficiently than nearly any other crop. Once inside the plant, arsenic stays in the bran layer — the very component removed when turning brown rice into white. The findings expose a critical contradiction in modern nutrition: a food praised for its health benefits might actually pose real risks, particularly to weak groups like babies. Is the push for “natural” and “whole” foods unintentionally harming the youngest consumers? The researchers analyzed rice consumption across age groups and found that children aged 6-24 months who regularly eat brown rice may go beyond safe arsenic intake limits by nearly 40%. The daily amount for some babies reached 0.295 micrograms per kilogram of body weight. While adults face a very small risk from occasional brown rice consumption, the study warns that heavy rice eaters — especially those on gluten-free (无麸质的) diets or with poor nutrition — could also build up dangerous amounts over time. The study found that bran alone contains arsenic at levels 10 times higher than white rice itself. This is a worrying thing for products like brown rice syrup (糖浆) , which has already been linked to 30 times more arsenic in some baby food. Could parents unknowingly be poisoning their children while trying to feed them “healthier” options? With mounting evidence that foods marketed as “wholesome” may carry hidden poisonous substances, will law makers finally demand clearer labeling — or will parents remain in the dark? 12. Why do health-aware consumers choose brown rice? A. Because it has a lower arsenic content. B. Because they believe its bran layer is beneficial. C. Because it tastes better than white rice. D. Because it is processed more carefully. 13. What can we learn from paragraph 3? A. Modern nutrition is completely wrong. B. “Natural” and “whole” foods are always healthy. C. Some seemingly healthy foods may be risky. D. Babies and young children should only eat white rice. 14. What is the writer’s attitude towards “clearer labeling”? A. Uncertain. B. Objective. C.

Although she lives across the country, the bond between us has always been strong. Her diagnosis (诊断) in November made me extremely upset. But after she had surgery to remove the cancer, we were hopeful until today, when her scans came out, showing that the cancer had spread to her liver. The doctor said treatment was no longer an option. I was at work when I got the news. It was my mother who called me, her voice trembling with every word. I tried to comfort her, but the weight of the terrible news was insufferable. Both of us were choking back tears. The moment the phone was hung up, I stumbled (跌跌撞撞) outside to my car, took the driver’s seat and finally broke down in tears, grief (悲伤) pouring out of me in waves. I didn’t care who might hear—I just needed to let it out. Outside the window, it was like a busy party where people kept coming and going. The entrance of the store was crowded, with customers rushing in and out as usual. Some regular customers from our store must have seen me in that awkward moment, but I was too lost in my sadness to notice anyone around. After what seemed like hours, I had to pull myself together, wiping my tears and taking deep breaths before returning to work. I mechanically went about my business with a forced smile, helping customers and stocking shelves, my mind a thousand miles away. Shortly after, I was approached by one of my colleagues, saying there was something to my car. I had him take it off my car and bring it in to me. It was a bunch of beautiful and delicate flowers. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Beside was a card and I opened it. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I phoned the number on the card. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
