Pass breathtaking waterfalls as you travel over Arthur's Pass National Park to reach Greymouth, the West Coast’s biggest town. Christchurch to Hammer Springs Head north from Christchurch through Canterbury’s wine region, its countryside filled with plenty of vineyards (葡萄园) and wineries, such as Pegasus Bay and Terrace Edge. Here you can visit local vineyards, before taking a trip inland to Hammer Springs, a mountain village with geothermal (地热的) pools. Its winding woodland paths are also popular with hikers and mountain bikers. Queenstown to Te Anau and The Catlins Queenstown New Zealand’s adventure capital, is a great starting point for a southern road trip. Then, it’s around a two-hour drive through the rolling mountains to Te Anau. Next, it’s easy to explore the windswept landscapes of The Catlins on the way to Dunedin. Dunedin, a coastal city, is known for its mix of Maori and Scottish heritage, and houses New Zealand’s only castle, Larnach Castle. Auckland to Waitangi Situated between two ports, Auckland, New Zealand’s largest city, is unique for hilly landscapes. Then be sure to include a stop at Waitangi on your tour. A treaty (条约) was signed here in 1840 between the British Crown and some Maori chief s—it’s one of New Zealand’s most significant sites to learn about the country’s history and Maori culture. Next, weave through the countryside to reach the very top of New Zealand. 1. What can you do at Hammer Springs? A. Explore its bike paths. B. Enjoy its only waterfall. C. Visit the largest vineyard in the world. D. See the country’s biggest town. 2. What is special about Dunedin? A. It is located in a national park. B. It is home to Larnach Castle. C. It is perfect for mountain bikers. D. It is famous for flat farmlands. 3. Why is Waitangi one of New Zealand’s most significant sites? A. It witnessed a major historical event. B. It used to be a peaceful mountain village. C. It is situated between two famous ports. D. It is the most ancient city in New Zealand. B My first guitar lesson ended in discomfort and confusion. But I was hooked (钩住). I was 10 but still sensed an intense connection to this beautiful and mysterious instrument. Since then, guitars have been a focus of my life. In my late teens I spent a summer playing in a band. We performed exclusively at hospitals, children’s camps and seniors’ long-term care homes. Listeners there gave us a burst of enthusiastic applause and said that our music seemed to take them into another world. The memory of the unguarded smiles, delightful dancing and shining eyes will forever stay with me. Each of my guitars has a unique sound, feel and personality. Each guitar tells a different story and together they create beauties of my life. I still remember the thrill of picking out that electric guitar with my dad five decades ago — a shared moment of excitement and bonding. The guitar has bridged cultural divides. I have vivid memories of playing and stealing glances at other guitarists. Though we didn’t share a spoken language, we communicated through our guitars, creating something new and beautiful together. Those wordless conversations, filled with smiles and mutual understanding, were moments of extreme happiness. I will forever be indebted to my parents for the gift of the guitar. My patient and kind mother encouraged me when I wanted to give up. She believed in my potential and pushed me to keep practising. Her unwavering (坚定的) support laid the foundation for my lifelong love of music and creativity. If people are lucky, they will find their own instrument — something that connects them to themselves and to others. It might not be a guitar; it could be a paintbrush, a pen, a camera or a sport. What matters is the sense of purpose and bonding it brings. Every time, when I hear the strains of my son’s guitar drifting throughout our home, I smile and hope the guitar has caught another young soul, as it did mine so many years ago. 4. Which of the following best describes the author’s performance in his late teens? A. Demanding. B. Disappointing. C. Novel. D. Infectious. 5. What helped the author keep pursuing his music in paragraph 5? A. His mother’s unique insights. B. His mother’s firm assistance. C. His mother’s committed research. D. His mother’s convincing promotion. 6. What is the attitude of the author toward his son’s playing the guitar? A. He disapproves of it. B. He is tolerant of it. C. He doesn’t care about it. D. He is favorable to it. 7. What’s the best title for the text? A. My Love for Music: a UNIQUE Journey B. Learning the Guitar: Challenges and Frustrations C. The Guitar: a Lifelong Companion and Connector D. Memorable Performances: My Experience in a Band C Food for thought. What are menus? What do they contain? And ultimately, why do they matter? Cooke, a professor of English at McGill University, goes on a richly illustrated journey through three centuries to tackle these questions, and more. In Tastes and Traditions, she approaches the broad banquet (盛宴)of menus the way a diner might approach a buffet—by sampling and tasting particular items. Her critical attention falls on the famous artists like Picasso and Toulouse-Lautrec who have illustrated menus and these illustrations can show the careful artistic and design choices that menus can represent. But above all, she writes, “Menu sawaken our interest for the many, rich and varied stories they tell and... for the memories they recall for original diners and the journeys upon which they allow belated readers to begin.” Menus rise above the temporary and in their future life clarify the tastes and traditions of those who came before rather than the current food trends and people's value. Cooke uses dozens of elegant menus as launching points to reflect on the foodways they represent. As later readers, we can, for example, study world's fair menus as documents that reveal national values and priorities or look to the children's menus commonly found on early-19th-century rail lines for the messages they might tell us about coming of age. Some menus are meant to be mementos (纪念品) of specific events, like a meeting between heads of state. These, too, invite the later readers to consider issues of food culture, social history, and more. As an adventurous eater, Cooke is an even more undaunted explorer of foodways past and present who is not discouraged by difficulties and moves across time and culture “both to invite readers to ask deep questions and to offer satisfying answers to meet their appetites”. This is a beautifully illustrated and entertaining celebration of a rich yet overlooked genre (体裁). 8. Why does Cooke pay attention to Picasso and Toulouse-Lautrec in her Tastes and Traditions? A. To emphasize the historical value of menus. B. To introduce two famous artists in history. C. To highlight the artistic features of menus. D. To show the popularity of illustrated menus. 9. What do menus reveal in their future life according to the text? A. Diners' cultural conflicts. B. People's value. C. Modern food trends. D. Past tastes and traditions. 10. What does the underlined word “undaunted” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Humble. B. Determined. C. Confused. D. Traditional. 11. What is the author's purpose in writing the text? A. To urge readers to value menus. B. To recommend a book on menus. C. To celebrate menus' cultural role. D. To analyze the imperfections in menu design. D Reducing the amount of agricultural sprays (喷雾) used by farmers could decrease the amount of polluting run-off (地表径流) that enters the environment while at the same time reducing farmers’ costs and perhaps even enhancing their productivity and farmland quality. A team of researchers at MIT has developed a system to do just that. Their technology adds a thin coating around droplets (小滴) as they are being sprayed onto a field, greatly reducing their tendency to bounce off leaves and end up wasted on the ground. Instead, the coated droplets stick to the leaves as intended. In the new study, the researchers conducted lab experiments with high-speed cameras. When they sprayed droplets with no special treatment onto a water-repelling surface similar to that of many plant leaves, the droplets initially spread out into a pancake-like disk, then rebounded back into a ball and bounced away. But when the researchers coated the surface of the droplets with a tiny amount of oil — making up less than 1 percent of the droplets’ liquid — the droplets spread out and then stayed put. The treatment improved the droplets’ “stickiness” by as much as a hundred times. The researchers formed a company to commercialize the system. In order to prove how much their coating system improves the amount of spray that stays on the plant, they first had to develop a technology to monitor spraying in real time. They used the system on farms ranging in size from a few dozen acres to hundreds of thousands of acres, and many different crop types. The system has saved farmers 30 to 50 percent on their pesticide costs, just by improving the controls on the existing sprays. The success stories keep adding up. As the global population rises, farmers need to grow more food without using more land. “Our mission is to use this technology to help farmers do just that — by using fewer chemicals, saving money, and protecting the environment,” says Kripa Varanasi, MIT professor of mechanical engineering. 12. What is a problem caused by traditional agricultural sprays according to the text? A. Decline in farmers’ income. B. High energy consumption. C. Environmental harm. D. Overuse of farmland. 13. What can we know about droplets coated with oil in the experiment? A. Their shapes remain unchanged. B. They spread out into a pancake-like disk. C. They quickly bounce back to the ground. D. Their stickiness to the leaves is increased greatly. 14. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The challenges of developing monitoring technology. B. The necessity of growing different types of crops. C. The successful application of the system. D. The importance of reducing pesticide costs. 15. What do the scientists expect of the technology? A. It’ll deliver enormous value to agriculture. B. It’ll enable produce to be more profitable. C. It’ll encourage people to practice farming. D. It’ll raise public environmental awareness. 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。 Organizing a Community Event Planning a successful community event takes careful plans and some efforts. ____16____.

Every Tuesday afternoon, in a small classroom behind the school library, students gathered for something called “Words Unspoken”. It was advertised as a poetry club, but it was more than that. It was run by Ms. Carter, the school counselor, who also happened to be a published poet. At first, no one really knew what to expect. Samantha hadn’t planned on joining. She preferred staying invisible. She had been in low spirits ever since she didn’t do well in the exams. She had mastered silence. Words, especially spoken ones, felt powerless for her. But when Ms. Carter handed her a flyer with a gentle smile and said that there was no pressure and that it was just a space to write, something in her stirred (被唤起). On the first day, there were only six students. Some were theater kids, and others looked like they belonged on the soccer field. Samantha almost turned around at the door, but Ms. Carter’s soft voice pulled her in. “We’re not here to be perfect,” she said. “We’re here to be honest.” That first session, Ms. Carter asked them to write a poem beginning with the words “I am... ”. Samantha stared at the page. Her hand trembled. After twenty minutes, all she had written was: “I am tired of pretending I’m okay.” She didn’t read it aloud, and she didn’t need to. Just writing it made her chest feel a little lighter. Each week, the group explored different types of poetry — free verse, haiku and cinquain. They wrote about everything: the ache of being misunderstood, the quiet joy of a sunny morning, the happiness of being praised by the teachers and so on. There were no grades, no judgment — just pages and pens and voices finding their rhythm. For Samantha, poetry therapy became a lifelong. She began to carry a small notebook everywhere. On the bus, she’d write about the way the clouds mirrored her thoughts. Slowly, the silence inside her began to change. Instead of feeling empty, it started to fill with words. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 One Tuesday afternoon, Ms. Carter invited them to write a poem titled “The Person I’m Becoming”. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When Samantha finished reading her poem, there was a burst of applause. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 高二英语考试 注意事项： 1. 答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号、考场号、座位号填写在答题卡上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 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。 例: How much is the shirt?

I was 10 but still sensed an intense connection to this beautiful and mysterious instrument. Since then, guitars have been a focus of my life. In my late teens I spent a summer playing in a band. We performed exclusively at hospitals, children’s camps and seniors’ long-term care homes. Listeners there gave us a burst of enthusiastic applause and said that our music seemed to take them into another world. The memory of the unguarded smiles, delightful dancing and shining eyes will forever stay with me. Each of my guitars has a unique sound, feel and personality. Each guitar tells a different story and together they create beauties of my life. I still remember the thrill of picking out that electric guitar with my dad five decades ago — a shared moment of excitement and bonding. The guitar has bridged cultural divides. I have vivid memories of playing and stealing glances at other guitarists. Though we didn’t share a spoken language, we communicated through our guitars, creating something new and beautiful together. Those wordless conversations, filled with smiles and mutual understanding, were moments of extreme happiness. I will forever be indebted to my parents for the gift of the guitar. My patient and kind mother encouraged me when I wanted to give up. She believed in my potential and pushed me to keep practising. Her unwavering (坚定的) support laid the foundation for my lifelong love of music and creativity. If people are lucky, they will find their own instrument — something that connects them to themselves and to others. It might not be a guitar; it could be a paintbrush, a pen, a camera or a sport. What matters is the sense of purpose and bonding it brings. Every time, when I hear the strains of my son’s guitar drifting throughout our home, I smile and hope the guitar has caught another young soul, as it did mine so many years ago. 4.

What do they contain? And, ultimately, why do they matter? Cooke, a professor of English at McGill University, goes on a richly illustrated journey through three centuries to tackle these questions, and more. In Tastes and Traditions, she approaches the broad banquet (盛宴)of menus the way a diner might approach a buffet—by sampling and tasting particular items. Her critical attention falls on the famous artists like Picasso and Toulouse-Lautrec who have illustrated menus and these illustrations can show the careful artistic and design choices that menus can represent. But above all, she writes, “Menu sawaken our interest for the many, rich and varied stories they tell and... for the memories they recall for original diners and the journeys upon which they allow belated readers to begin.” Menus rise above the temporary and in their future life clarify the tastes and traditions of those who came before rather than the current food trends and people's value. Cooke uses dozens of elegant menus as launching points to reflect on the foodways they represent. As later readers, we can, for example, study world's fair menus as documents that reveal national values and priorities or look to the children's menus commonly found on early-19th-century rail lines for the messages they might tell us about coming of age. Some menus are meant to be mementos (纪念品) of specific events, like a meeting between heads of state. These, too, invite the later readers to consider issues of food culture, social history, and more. As an adventurous eater, Cooke is an even more undaunted explorer of foodways past and present who is not discouraged by difficulties and moves across time and culture “both to invite readers to ask deep questions and to offer satisfying answers to meet their appetites”. This is a beautifully illustrated and entertaining celebration of a rich yet overlooked genre (体裁). 8. Why does Cooke pay attention to Picasso and Toulouse-Lautrec in her Tastes and Traditions? A. To emphasize the historical value of menus. B. To introduce two famous artists in history. C. To highlight the artistic features of menus. D. To show the popularity of illustrated menus. 9. What do menus reveal in their future life according to the text? A. Diners' cultural conflicts. B. People's value. C. Modern food trends. D. Past tastes and traditions. 10. What does the underlined word “undaunted” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Humble. B. Determined. C. Confused. D. Traditional. 11. What is the author's purpose in writing the text? A. To urge readers to value menus. B. To recommend a book on menus. C. To celebrate menus' cultural role. D. To analyze the imperfections in menu design. 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。麦吉尔大学英语教授Cooke写了一本名为《口味与传统》的书，探讨了菜单的历史、艺术价值和文化意义。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据首段末句“Her critical attention falls on the famous artists like Picasso and Toulouse-Lautrec who have illustrated menus and these illustrations can show the careful artistic and design choices that menus can represent.(她的关注焦点集中在像毕加索和图卢兹·劳特雷克这样的著名艺术家身上，他们曾为菜单绘制插图。而这些插图能够展现出菜单所体现的精心的美学和设计选择)”可知，库克关注毕加索和图卢兹·劳特雷克等名家，是因为他们为菜单创作的插画展现了菜单在艺术和设计上的精心选择，即突出了菜单的艺术特征。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段末句“Menus rise above the temporary and in their future life clarify the tastes and traditions of those who came before rather than the current food trends and people's value.(菜单置于临时性的设计之上，而在其未来的演变中，它们将彰显出那些先辈们的口味与传统，而非当前的饮食潮流以及人们的价值观)”可推断，菜单揭示的是过去先辈们的品味和传统。故选D项。 【10题详解】 词义推测题。根据第三段末句“As an adventurous eater, Cooke is an even more  undaunted  explorer of foodways past and present who is not discouraged by difficulties and moves across time and culture “both to invite readers to ask deep questions and to offer satisfying answers to meet their appetites”.(作为一位勇于尝试新食物的美食家，库克更是是一位对过去和当下的饮食文化进行探索的无畏者。他不惧困难，跨越不同时期和文化领域，其目的既是为了让读者深入思考，也是为了提供令人满意的答案，以满足他们的味蕾需求)”可知，“不怕困难”是对画线词undaunted的解释，选项中的Determined表示“顽强的”，可以体现人物不怕困难的特点。故选B项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段的“ Cooke, a professor of English at McGill University, goes on a richly illustrated journey through three centuries to tackle these questions, and more. In Tastes and   Traditions, she approaches the broad banquet of menus the way a diner might approach a buffet—by sampling and tasting particular items. (麦吉尔大学的英语教授库克通过详尽的插图，对三个世纪以来的相关问题进行了深入探讨，内容还包括更多内容。在《口味与传统》一书中，她以用餐者在自助餐台前的用餐方式来审视种类繁多的菜单——即通过品尝和试吃特定的菜品来进行分析)”可知，麦吉尔大学英语教授库克写了一本书《口味与传统》以及末段“ This is a beautifully illustrated and entertaining celebration of a rich yet overlooked genre.(这是一部图文并茂、引人入胜的作品，它对一个丰富却被忽视的文学体裁进行了精彩的呈现)”可推断，作者写这篇文章的目的是推荐一本关于菜单的书。故选B项。 D Reducing the amount of agricultural sprays (喷雾) used by farmers could decrease the amount of polluting run-off (地表径流) that enters the environment while at the same time reducing farmers’ costs and perhaps even enhancing their productivity and farmland quality. A team of researchers at MIT has developed a system to do just that. Their technology adds a thin coating around droplets (小滴) as they are being sprayed onto a field, greatly reducing their tendency to bounce off leaves and end up wasted on the ground. Instead, the coated droplets stick to the leaves as intended. In the new study, the researchers conducted lab experiments with high-speed cameras. When they sprayed droplets with no special treatment onto a water-repelling surface similar to that of many plant leaves, the droplets initially spread out into a pancake-like disk, then rebounded back into a ball and bounced away. But when the researchers coated the surface of the droplets with a tiny amount of oil — making up less than 1 percent of the droplets’ liquid — the droplets spread out and then stayed put. The treatment improved the droplets’ “stickiness” by as much as a hundred times. The researchers formed a company to commercialize the system. In order to prove how much their coating system improves the amount of spray that stays on the plant, they first had to develop a technology to monitor spraying in real time. They used the system on farms ranging in size from a few dozen acres to hundreds of thousands of acres, and many different crop types. The system has saved farmers 30 to 50 percent on their pesticide costs, just by improving the controls on the existing sprays. The success stories keep adding up. As the global population rises, farmers need to grow more food without using more land. “Our mission is to use this technology to help farmers do just that — by using fewer chemicals, saving money, and protecting the environment,” says Kripa Varanasi, MIT professor of mechanical engineering. 12. What is a problem caused by traditional agricultural sprays according to the text? A. Decline in farmers’ income. B. High energy consumption. C. Environmental harm. D. Overuse of farmland. 13. What can we know about droplets coated with oil in the experiment? A. Their shapes remain unchanged. B. They spread out into a pancake-like disk. C. They quickly bounce back to the ground. D. Their stickiness to the leaves is increased greatly. 14. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The challenges of developing monitoring technology. B. The necessity of growing different types of crops. C. The successful application of the system. D. The importance of reducing pesticide costs. 15. What do the scientists expect of the technology? A. It’ll deliver enormous value to agriculture. B. It’ll enable produce to be more profitable. C. It’ll encourage people to practice farming. D. It’ll raise public environmental awareness. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章讲述了麻省理工学院的研究人员发明了一种新技术，通过给农药液滴覆薄涂层，减少液滴反弹浪费，经实验和田间应用验证有效。该团队成立了公司商业化此系统，助力农民在不扩耕地前提下，用更少化学药剂、降本且环保地增产，契合全球人口增长下农业发展需求 。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的“Reducing the amount of agricultural sprays (喷雾) used by farmers could decrease the amount of polluting run-off (地表径流) that enters the environment while at the same time reducing farmers’ costs and perhaps even enhancing their productivity and farmland quality.(减少农民使用的农业喷雾量，能够减少流入环境的污染性地表径流，同时还能降低农民的成本，甚至可能提高他们的生产效率和农田质量。)”可知，传统农业喷雾剂导致污染性地表径流，造成环境危害。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“But when the researchers coated the surface of the droplets with a tiny amount of oil — making up less than 1 percent of the droplets’ liquid — the droplets spread out and then stayed put. The treatment improved the droplets’ “stickiness” by as much as a hundred times.(但当研究人员在液滴表面涂上微量的油（这些油仅占液滴总体积的不到 1%）后，液滴便开始扩散开来，并且能够保持稳定不动。这种处理方式使液滴的“粘性”提高了多达一百倍。)”说明涂油液滴扩散后保持附着，粘性提升百倍，因此它们与树叶的粘附力大大增强了。故选D。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段内容“The researchers formed a company to commercialize the system. In order to prove how much their coating system improves the amount of spray that stays on the plant, they first had to develop a technology to monitor spraying in real time. They used the system on farms ranging in size from a few dozen acres to hundreds of thousands of acres, and many different crop types. The system has saved farmers 30 to 50 percent on their pesticide costs, just by improving the controls on the existing sprays. The success stories keep adding up.(研究人员成立了一家公司来将该系统商业化。为了证明他们的涂层系统能显著提高植物上喷洒物质的留存量，他们首先必须开发出一种实时监测喷洒情况的技术。他们将该系统应用于从几十英亩到数十万英亩不等的农场，并且涵盖了多种不同的作物类型。该系统仅通过改进现有喷洒的控制方式，就为农民节省了30%至50%的农药成本。成功案例不断涌现。)”可知，第四段核心内容是该技术的商业化成果：开发实时监测系统、多规模农场实测、节省农药成本30-50%及成功案例持续增加，第四段主要介绍了该系统的成功应用。故选C。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“As the global population rises, farmers need to grow more food without using more land. “Our mission is to use this technology to help farmers do just that — by using fewer chemicals, saving money, and protecting the environment,” says Kripa Varanasi, MIT professor of mechanical engineering.(随着全球人口的不断增长，农民们需要在不占用更多土地的情况下生产出更多的粮食。“我们的使命就是利用这项技术来帮助农民实现这一目标——通过减少化学物质的使用、节省成本以及保护环境来达成这一目的。”麻省理工学院机械工程系教授克里帕·瓦拉纳西如是说道。)”可知，科学家期望通过该技术减少化学品使用，节省农民生产成本和保护环境，为农业带来巨大的价机。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。 Organizing a Community Event Planning a successful community event takes careful plans and some efforts. ____16____.

Every Tuesday afternoon, in a small classroom behind the school library, students gathered for something called “Words Unspoken”. It was advertised as a poetry club, but it was more than that. It was run by Ms. Carter, the school counselor, who also happened to be a published poet. At first, no one really knew what to expect. Samantha hadn’t planned on joining. She preferred staying invisible. She had been in low spirits ever since she didn’t do well in the exams. She had mastered silence. Words, especially spoken ones, felt powerless for her. But when Ms. Carter handed her a flyer with a gentle smile and said that there was no pressure and that it was just a space to write, something in her stirred (被唤起). On the first day, there were only six students. Some were theater kids, and others looked like they belonged on the soccer field. Samantha almost turned around at the door, but Ms. Carter’s soft voice pulled her in. “We’re not here to be perfect,” she said. “We’re here to be honest.” That first session, Ms. Carter asked them to write a poem beginning with the words “I am... ”. Samantha stared at the page. Her hand trembled. After twenty minutes, all she had written was: “I am tired of pretending I’m okay.” She didn’t read it aloud, and she didn’t need to. Just writing it made her chest feel a little lighter. Each week, the group explored different types of poetry — free verse, haiku and cinquain. They wrote about everything: the ache of being misunderstood, the quiet joy of a sunny morning, the happiness of being praised by the teachers and so on. There were no grades, no judgment — just pages and pens and voices finding their rhythm. For Samantha, poetry therapy became a lifelong. She began to carry a small notebook everywhere. On the bus, she’d write about the way the clouds mirrored her thoughts. Slowly, the silence inside her began to change. Instead of feeling empty, it started to fill with words. 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。 One Tuesday afternoon, Ms. Carter invited them to write a poem titled “The Person I’m Becoming”. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When Samantha finished reading her poem, there was a burst of applause. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 One Tuesday afternoon, Ms. Carter invited them to write a poem titled “The Person I’m Becoming”. Samantha stared at her blank page once again — but this time, something felt different. Pen in hand, Samantha began to write. She wrote about a girl who once hid behind silence and mistook invisibility for okay. She wrote about how, through poetry, she had begun to speak — not loudly, but truthfully. After that, Ms. Carter asked, “Would anyone like to share?” Samantha, to everyone’s surprise, raised her hand. She had never read aloud before. Yet, in that moment, something inside her wished to be heard. When Samantha finished reading her poem, there was a burst of applause. She didn’t realize just how powerful her words could be until that moment. Ms. Carter, whose voice rarely trembled, said softly, “That is beautiful, Samantha. You are brave.” What once had been silence full of fear was now silence full of respect. From that day forward, Samantha always carried two things with her: her little notebook and the belief that even the softest voice, when honest, can be heard. All because of a blank page that became a mirror. She no longer feared failure but charged forward. 【解析】 【导语】本文以萨曼莎的转变为线索展开，讲述了她因考试失利情绪低落，原本喜欢沉默、希望不被注意，却在参加“未说之言”诗歌俱乐部后，通过每周创作不同类型诗歌，逐渐从沉默中走出，内心被文字填满的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“一个星期二的下午，卡特女士邀请他们写一首题为《我正在成为的人》的诗。”可知，第一段可描写萨曼莎在接到这个题目后，与以往不同的表现，她开始动笔书写自己的变化，并且首次主动举手分享。 ②由第二段首句内容“当萨曼莎读完她的诗时，响起了一阵掌声。”可知，第二段可描写掌声响起后，卡特女士对她的赞扬，以及这次经历对萨曼莎产生的深远影响，她从此更加自信，不再害怕失败。 2.续写线索：萨曼莎凝视空白页——书写自我转变——主动举手分享——掌声响起——卡特女士赞扬——萨曼莎收获信念与勇气 3.词汇激活 行为类： ①书写：write /put down ②意识到：realize/be aware ③颤抖：tremble/shake 情绪类： ①勇敢：brave /courageous ②恐惧：fear/terror 【点睛】【高分句型1】She wrote about a girl who once hid behind silence and mistook invisibility for okay.（运用了关系代词who引导的定语从句） 【高分句型2】What once had been silence full of fear was now silence full of respect.（运用了what引导的主语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
