All around the world, there are museums devoted to the art of cinema. Here are some movie museums you can visit. RANCHO OBI-WAN STAR WARS MUSEUM Former Wall Street Journal reporter Steve Sansweet founded Rancho Obi-Wan in 1998. It’s a nonprofit museum that is the home to the world’s largest collection of privately-owned Star Wars memorabilia (纪念品). The museum offers regular activities for Star Wars fans of all ages, plus free educational tours for nearby elementary schools. Currently, Rancho Obi-Wan contains more than 300,000 unique pieces of Star Wars memorabilia from 1977’s A New Hope to 2015’s The Force Awakens, making it the Guinness World Record holder for “Largest Collection of Star Wars Memorabilia”. LA CINÉMATHÈQUE FRANÇAISE Paris’ La Cinémathèque Française features one of the world’s largest film collections. Established in 1936, co-founders Henri Langlois and Georges Franju acquired a large collection of films and documents, but had to smuggle (走私) a majority of them out of German-occupied France during World War II. IT’S A WONDERFULLIFE MUSEUM The It’s a Wonderful Life Museum opened in 2010. Actress Karolyn Grimes donated original photos and other memorabilia from her private collection, such as call sheets from production and the Academy Awards program.

B When I was a little girl, I remember that when my dad was repairing something, he would ask me to hold the hammer, so we would have time for a conversation with each other. I never saw my dad drinking or taking a night out. All he did after work was taking care of his family. I grew up and left home for college and since then, my dad had been calling me every Sunday morning. And when I bought a house several years later, my dad painted it by himself in the fierce summer heat. All he asked was to talk to him, but I was too busy in those days. Four years ago, my dad visited me. He spent many hours putting together a swing for my daughter. He asked me to have a talk with him, but I had to prepare for a trip that weekend. One Sunday morning we had a telephone talk as usual. I noticed that my dad had forgotten some things that we discussed lately. I was in a hurry, so our conversation was short. Several hours later that day I received a call. My father was in the hospital. Immediately I bought a plane ticket and on my way, I was thinking about all the occasions I missed to have a talk with my dad. By the time I arrived at the hospital, my father had passed away. Now it was he who did not have time for a conversation with me. I realized how little I knew about my dad, his deepest thoughts and his dreams. After his death, I learned much more about him and even more about myself. All he ever wanted was my time. And now he has all my attention every single day. 4. What can we learn about the author’s dad from paragraph 1? A. He was fond of drinking. B. He enjoyed family time. C. He had a night part-time job. D. He was a very silent man. 5. Why did the author’s dad paint her house? A. To ask for small chats. B. To make more money. C. To kill the summer time. D. To help with her education. 6. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning the swing for her daughter? A. To complain about her busy life. B. To explain how to build a swing. C. To show dad’s care for the family. D. To compare her dad’s different jobs. 7. What is the main message conveyed in the text? A. Children should always obey their parents. B. It is important to keep in touch with relatives. C. People should often go back to their hometown. D. Family time is valuable and should be treasured. C Mastering the science and art of performing surgery takes a human years of study and practice. Robots, as it turns out, can learn to do surgical tasks much faster. A new study on Robot Learning introduced the world to a medical robot that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to teach itself to perform surgical tasks as well as a human. The research team from Johns Hopkins University and Stanford University used a da Vinci Surgical System in the study. This is a system designed to perform some surgical tasks while remotely controlled by a human surgeon. The da Vinci robot allows the surgeon to work with much greater control and precision. Using a type of AI training called imitation learning in which an AI model learns a new task by observing and imitating human actions, reported Fast Company, the robot is able to learn the very complex set of actions needed to carry out a surgical task. While training the robot, the researchers consulted with practicing surgeons who evaluated the robot’s performance. In addition, to truly test the robot, they essentially presented it with an unknown scenario (场景) that it had not trained on. It was able to perform the virtual simulation (模拟) with flying colors. This suggests that the robot was able to generalize, rather than just memorize and would be able to manage the unexpected situations that tend to occur in a real-life operating room. “It’s really magical to have this model where all we do is feed it camera input, and it can predict the robotic movements needed for surgery,” Dr. Axel Krieger, senior author of the study, told Fast Company. “We believe this marks a significant step forward toward a new frontier in medical robotics.” Automated medical devices could make high-quality medical procedures and care available in places lacking medical infrastructure. Not every small city employs top-tier surgeons in their hospitals. An automated surgeon could bring all the skills and expertise of a human surgeon to the people who need them. 8. How does the robot actually perform surgery? A. By simplifying complex actions. B. By remotely controlling a human surgeon. C. By being guided by a doctor at its side. D. By learning from human behavior. 9. What does the underlined phrase “with flying colors” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Perfectly. B. Patiently. C. Secretly. D. Formally. 10. How does Dr. Axel Krieger find the model? A. It will be applied to more operations. B. It is innovative. C. It needs to be improved. D. It is cost-effective. 11. What aspect of the robot does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A. Its principle. B. Its target. C. Its significance. D. Its development. D On the streets of Manhattan and Washington, D. C., in neighborhoods in Seoul and parks in Paris, ginkgo (银杏) trees are losing their leaves in reaction to the first gust of cold winter air. This leaf drop, gradual at first, and then sudden, carpets streets with golden, fan-shaped leaves. Scientists are documenting evidence of the event happening later and later, a possible indication of climate change. But the story of ginkgos is not the familiar one of human carelessness with nature. Thanks to fossils found in North Dakota, scientists found a ginkgo has genetically similar ancestors dating back 170 million years to the Jurassic Period. “It almost went extinct. Then humans rescued it and spread it around the world. It’s such a great evolutionary (进化) and cultural story,” says Peter Crane, a ginkgo expert. One theory for the decline of the ginkgo species began 130 million years ago, when flowering plants began spreading. They grew faster and attracted more pollinators (传粉者) than ginkgos. “It’s possible that ginkgos were elbowed out of the way,” says Crane. Already competing to survive, ginkgos began to disappear during a time of global cooling that began around 66 million years ago. By the time the last ice age ended 11,000 years ago, the remaining survivors were found in China. Ginkgo trees are smelly. “My guess is that they were eaten by animals that liked smelly things. They then passed through their body and grew.” Crane says. Those same seeds may have helped ginkgo find favor with humans 1,000 years ago. Once cleaned of their outer layer, ginkgo seeds are safe to eat. It’s then, when the trees had long since disappeared elsewhere, that people in China may have begun planting them and eating their seeds. Then gradually ginkgos spread across the world. Now it’s seemingly naturally resistant to insects and high levels of air pollution. Crane isn’t worried about its future, though: The popularity of the species will help it survive. “Though its status in the wild may be difficult to access, it’s a plant that’s unlikely to ever go extinct,” he says. 12. What may have caused the further delay of ginkgo’s leaf drop? A. The colder weather in winter. B. The protection from city councils. C. The global warming phenomenon. D. The careless interaction with humans. 13. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. The reasons why ginkgos almost died out. B. The advantages of ginkgos over other plants. C. The theories of experts for multiplying ginkgos. D. The competition between various flowering plants. 14. What might have contributed to ginkgos’ survival? A. Their eatable seeds. B. Their unpleasant smell. C. The natural evolution. D. The careful planting. 15. How does Crane feel about ginkgos’ future? A. Worried. B. Optimistic. C. Uncertain. D. Hopeless. 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。 The latest thing in architecture is green buildings—covering walls and roofs with a carpet of plants to prevent heat, absorb rain and provide a home for wildlife.

The topic of the contest was recycling, and the winner would receive the honor of having his or her poster displayed all around the school. This was a big event and he couldn’t afford to miss it. And Shawn was sure his was the best in the class-certainly better than Neil’s! Neil and Shawn were in the same class and the two boys competed in everything, and their test scores and grades were just about equal. They almost never spoke to each other, but everyone in the class knew they were competitors. One thing Shawn excelled at, though, was art. His poster, which showed a garbage pile threatening to crush the school, looked really good. The only problem was the slogan, which was a little boring. It read, “Recycle.” Mr. Wu evaluated all the posters carefully and said, “These are all excellent, but there are two entries that really stand out.” Shawn grinned as Mr. Wu held up his poster and the class clapped. But then Mr. Wu held up Neil’s poster, too. The artwork wasn’t great, Shawn saw, but the words written across the top were powerful. They read, “It’s Your Planet-Recycle It!” Even Shawn had to admit it was a good slogan. Mr. Wu announced that the winner should be decided by a public vote. But their competition ended in a tie(平局). It was really a hard decision, for they both did a good job in the designing, each with their own unique strong points. Shawn walked out of the school, with his head and shoulders hanging down. He knew the chance that his poster would be exhibited was dimming. When he looked up, he saw Neil walking alone a few steps ahead, his face stiffening with worry. He cast Shawn a look, but didn’t say a single word. 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。 Then Shawn had an idea. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The exhibition Shawn had been looking forward to finally came. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 石家庄市2024–2025学年度第二学期期末教学质量检测 高二英语 （本试卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟） 注意事项： 1.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 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。 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 never saw my dad drinking or taking a night out. All he did after work was taking care of his family. I grew up and left home for college and since then, my dad had been calling me every Sunday morning. And when I bought a house several years later, my dad painted it by himself in the fierce summer heat. All he asked was to talk to him, but I was too busy in those days. Four years ago my dad visited me. He spent many hours putting together a swing for my daughter. He asked me to have a talk with him, but I had to prepare for a trip that weekend. One Sunday morning we had a telephone talk as usual. I noticed that my dad had forgotten some things that we discussed lately. I was in a hurry, so our conversation was short. Several hours later that day I received a call. My father was in the hospital. Immediately I bought a plane ticket and on my way, I was thinking about all the occasions I missed to have a talk with my dad. By the time I arrived at the hospital, my father had passed away. Now it was he who did not have time for a conversation with me. I realized how little I knew about my dad, his deepest thoughts and his dreams. After his death, I learned much more about him and even more about myself. All he ever wanted was my time. And now he has all my attention every single day. 4. What can we learn about the author’s dad from paragraph 1? A. He was fond of drinking. B. He enjoyed family time. C. He had a night part-time job. D. He was a very silent man. 5. Why did the author’s dad paint her house? A. To ask for small chats. B. To make more money. C. To kill the summer time. D. To help with her education. 6. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning the swing for her daughter? A. To complain about her busy life. B. To explain how to build a swing. C. To show dad’s care for the family. D.

Robots, as it turns out, can learn to do surgical tasks much faster. A new study on Robot Learning introduced the world to a medical robot that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to teach itself to perform surgical tasks as well as a human. The research team from Johns Hopkins University and Stanford University used a da Vinci Surgical System in the study. This is a system designed to perform some surgical tasks while remotely controlled by a human surgeon. The da Vinci robot allows the surgeon to work with much greater control and precision. Using a type of AI training called imitation learning, in which an AI model learns a new task by observing and imitating human actions, reported Fast Company, the robot is able to learn the very complex set of actions needed to carry out a surgical task. While training the robot, the researchers consulted with practicing surgeons who evaluated the robot’s performance. In addition, to truly test the robot, they essentially presented it with an unknown scenario (场景) that it had not trained on. It was able to perform the virtual simulation (模拟) with flying colors. This suggests that the robot was able to generalize, rather than just memorize and would be able to manage the unexpected situations that tend to occur in a real-life operating room. “It’s really magical to have this model where all we do is feed it camera input, and it can predict the robotic movements needed for surgery,” Dr. Axel Krieger, senior author of the study, told Fast Company. “We believe this marks a significant step forward toward a new frontier in medical robotics.” Automated medical devices could make high-quality medical procedures and care available in places lacking medical infrastructure. Not every small city employs top-tier surgeons in their hospitals. An automated surgeon could bring all the skills and expertise of a human surgeon to the people who need them. 8. How does the robot actually perform surgery? A. By simplifying complex actions. B. By remotely controlling a human surgeon. C. By being guided by a doctor at its side. D. By learning from human behavior. 9. What does the underlined phrase “with flying colors” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Perfectly. B. Patiently. C. Secretly. D. Formally. 10. How does Dr. Axel Krieger find the model? A. It will be applied to more operations. B. It is innovative. C. It needs to be improved. D. It is cost-effective. 11. What aspect of the robot does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A. Its principle. B. Its target. C. Its significance. D. Its development. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了一款能够利用人工智能技术自学执行手术任务的医疗机器人。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Using a type of AI training called imitation learning, in which an AI model learns a new task by observing and imitating human actions, reported Fast Company, the robot is able to learn the very complex set of actions needed to carry out a surgical task.(据《快公司》报道，使用一种称为模仿学习的人工智能训练，其中人工智能模型通过观察和模仿人类行为来学习新任务，机器人能够学习执行手术任务所需的一组非常复杂的动作。)”可知，机器人通过模仿学习掌握手术技能，即观察并模仿人类行为。故选D。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词后面的句子“This suggests that the robot was able to generalize, rather than just memorize and would be able to manage the unexpected situations that tend to occur in a real-life operating room.(这表明机器人能够概括，而不仅仅是记忆，并且能够应付现实生活中手术室中经常发生的意外情况。)”可知，机器人能够成功应对现实生活中手术室中经常发生的意外情况，由此可推测出，“It was able to perform the virtual simulation (模拟) with flying colors”表达的是机器人能够出色地执行虚拟模拟，with flying colors意为“出色地”，与perfectly意思相近。故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段““It’s really magical to have this model where all we do is feed it camera input, and it can predict the robotic movements needed for surgery,” Dr. Axel Krieger, senior author of the study, told Fast Company. “We believe this marks a significant step forward toward a new frontier in medical robotics.”(该研究的资深作者Axel Krieger博士告诉《快公司》杂志：“拥有这个模型真的很神奇，我们所做的就是给它输入摄像头，它可以预测手术所需的机器人运动。我们认为，这标志着朝着医疗机器人新领域迈出了重要一步。”)”可知，Axel Krieger博士认为这一模型很神奇，并认为它标志着医疗机器人新领域的重要进步，这强调其创新性。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Automated medical devices could make high-quality medical procedures and care available in places lacking medical infrastructure. Not every small city employs top-tier surgeons in their hospitals. An automated surgeon could bring all the skills and expertise of a human surgeon to the people who need them.(自动化医疗设备可以在缺乏医疗基础设施的地方提供高质量的医疗手术和护理。并非每个小城市的医院都雇用了顶级外科医生。自动化外科医生可以将人类外科医生的所有技能和专业知识带给需要它们的人。)”可知，最后一段指出自动化医疗设备可为缺乏基础设施的地区提供高质量医疗服务，强调其社会意义。故选C。 D On the streets of Manhattan and Washington, D. C., in neighborhoods in Seoul and parks in Paris, ginkgo (银杏) trees are losing their leaves in reaction to the first gust of cold winter air. This leaf drop, gradual at first, and then sudden, carpets streets with golden, fan-shaped leaves. Scientists are documenting evidence of the event happening later and later, a possible indication of climate change. But the story of ginkgos is not the familiar one of human carelessness with nature. Thanks to fossils found in North Dakota, scientists found a ginkgo has genetically similar ancestors dating back 170 million years to the Jurassic Period. “It almost went extinct. Then humans rescued it and spread it around the world. It’s such a great evolutionary (进化) and cultural story,” says Peter Crane, a ginkgo expert. One theory for the decline of the ginkgo species began 130 million years ago, when flowering plants began spreading. They grew faster and attracted more pollinators (传粉者) than ginkgos. “It’s possible that ginkgos were elbowed out of the way,” says Crane. Already competing to survive, ginkgos began to disappear during a time of global cooling that began around 66 million years ago. By the time the last ice age ended 11,000 years ago, the remaining survivors were found in China. Ginkgo trees are smelly. “My guess is that they were eaten by animals that liked smelly things. They then passed through their body and grew.” Crane says. Those same seeds may have helped ginkgo find favor with humans 1,000 years ago. Once cleaned of their outer layer, ginkgo seeds are safe to eat. It’s then, when the trees had long since disappeared elsewhere, that people in China may have begun planting them and eating their seeds. Then gradually ginkgos spread across the world. Now it’s seemingly naturally resistant to insects and high levels of air pollution. Crane isn’t worried about its future, though: The popularity of the species will help it survive. “Though its status in the wild may be difficult to access, it’s a plant that’s unlikely to ever go extinct,” he says. 12. What may have caused the further delay of ginkgo’s leaf drop? A. The colder weather in winter. B. The protection from city councils. C. The global warming phenomenon. D. The careless interaction with humans. 13. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. The reasons why ginkgos almost died out. B. The advantages of ginkgos over other plants. C. The theories of experts for multiplying ginkgos. D. The competition between various flowering plants. 14. What might have contributed to ginkgos’ survival? A. Their eatable seeds. B. Their unpleasant smell. C. The natural evolution. D. The careful planting. 15. How does Crane feel about ginkgos’ future? A. Worried. B. Optimistic. C. Uncertain. D. Hopeless. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了银杏树的历史、特点、传播以及现状，通过科学家和专家的观点和研究来阐述银杏树在自然界和人类文化中的重要地位，同时也探讨了银杏树面临的一些挑战和未来发展的趋势。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Scientists are documenting evidence of the event happening later and later, a possible indication of climate change.(科学家们正在记录这一事件发生得越来越晚的证据，这可能是气候变化的一个迹象)”可推知，全球变暖现象可能是导致银杏落叶时间进一步推迟的原因。故选C项。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“One theory for the decline of the ginkgo species began 130 million years ago, when flowering plants began spreading. They grew faster and attracted more pollinators (传粉者) than ginkgos. “It’s possible that ginkgos were elbowed out of the way,” says Crane. Already competing to survive, ginkgos began to disappear during a time of global cooling that began around 66 million years ago. By the time the last ice age ended 11,000 years ago, the remaining survivors were found in China.(关于银杏物种衰落的一种理论始于1.3亿年前，当时开花植物开始传播。它们的生长速度比银杏快，吸引了更多的传粉者。“有可能银杏被挤出了生存的道路，”克雷恩说。已经在为生存而竞争的银杏，在全球变冷时期开始消失，这一时期大约始于6600万年前。到最后一个冰河时代结束前的11000年，剩下的幸存者在中国被发现)”可知，本段主要讲述了银杏树几乎灭绝的原因，包括与其他植物的竞争以及全球变冷等因素。因此，本段的主要内容是关于银杏树几乎灭绝的原因。故选A项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Those same seeds may have helped ginkgo find favor with humans 1,000 years ago. Once cleaned of their outer layer, ginkgo seeds are safe to eat. It’s then, when the trees had long since disappeared elsewhere, that people in China may have begun planting them and eating their seeds. Then gradually ginkgos spread across the world. Now it’s seemingly naturally resistant to insects and high levels of air pollution.(同样的种子可能在1000年前帮助银杏赢得了人类的青睐。一旦去掉外层，银杏种子就可以安全食用。然后，当这些树在其他地方早已消失的时候，中国人可能已经开始种植它们并食用它们的种子。然后银杏逐渐传播到世界各地。现在它似乎对昆虫和高水平的空气污染具有天然的抵抗力)”可知，银杏树能够生存下来，部分原因是因为它们的种子可以被人类食用。故选A项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Crane isn’t worried about its future, though: The popularity of the species will help it survive. “Though its status in the wild may be difficult to access, it’s a plant that’s unlikely to ever go extinct,” he says.(不过，克雷恩并不担心它的未来：这个物种的受欢迎程度将有助于它的生存。“尽管它在野外的地位可能难以评估，但它是一种不太可能灭绝的植物，”他说)”可知，专家Crane对银杏树的未来并不担心，认为这个物种的受欢迎程度将有助于它的生存。由此推知，Crane对银杏的未来是乐观的。故选B想。 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。 The latest thing in architecture is green buildings—covering walls and roofs with a carpet of plants to prevent heat, absorb rain and provide a home for wildlife.

The topic of the contest was recycling, and the winner would receive the honor of having his or her poster displayed all around the school. This was a big event and he couldn’t afford to miss it. And Shawn was sure his was the best in the class-certainly better than Neil’s! Neil and Shawn were in the same class and the two boys competed in everything, and their test scores and grades were just about equal. They almost never spoke to each other, but everyone in the class knew they were competitors. One thing Shawn excelled at, though, was art. His poster, which showed a garbage pile threatening to crush the school, looked really good. The only problem was the slogan, which was a little boring. It read, “Recycle.” Mr. Wu evaluated all the posters carefully and said, “These are all excellent, but there are two entries that really stand out.” Shawn grinned as Mr. Wu held up his poster and the class clapped. But then Mr. Wu held up Neil’s poster, too. The artwork wasn’t great, Shawn saw, but the words written across the top were powerful. They read, “It’s Your Planet-Recycle It!” Even Shawn had to admit it was a good slogan. Mr. Wu announced that the winner should be decided by a public vote. But their competition ended in a tie(平局). It was really a hard decision, for they both did a good job in the designing, each with their own unique strong points. Shawn walked out of the school, with his head and shoulders hanging down. He knew the chance that his poster would be exhibited was dimming. When he looked up, he saw Neil walking alone a few steps ahead, his face stiffening with worry. He cast Shawn a look, but didn’t say a single word. 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。 Then Shawn had an idea. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The exhibition Shawn had been looking forward to finally came. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Then Shawn had an idea. He came up to Neil and put forward his suggestion that if Neil agreed,maybe they could work together, combining his own art and Neil’s words to make a really great poster. Neil smiled at Shawn for the first time all year. “I think that sounds like a winning idea!” Neil said. The exhibition Shawn had been looking forward to finally came. Everybody in their class was curious to know who would gain the entry for the school’s poster contest. After all, both Shawn and Neil had equal shares of honor and power in areas where they were strong and confident. In the expectation of everyone, the jury announced the result of the contest finally. The poster created by the two students Shawn and Neil won the first prize, which was both in and out of all the expectation. What made everyone exclaim was that competitors were also close partners, and the contest strengthened the concept of “Harmony Makes Development and Cooperation makes Common Benefits”. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了肖恩和尼拉共同制作创意海报参加比赛的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“肖恩想到了一个好主意。”可知，第一段可描写肖恩想到的主意是和尼拉合作。 ②由第二段首句内容“肖恩期盼已久的展览终于到了。”可知本段重点描写比赛的结果以及合作的好处和意义。 2.续写线索：想到好主意——得到同意——二人合作——参加竞赛——出乎众人预料——竞赛结果——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 提出建议：put forward his suggestion/come up with his suggestion/raise his suggestion ②合作：work together/cooperate ③增强：strengthen/enhance/heighten 情绪类 ①渴望知道：be curious to know/be eager to know ②出乎意料：out of all the expectation/unexpectedly 【点睛】 [高分句型1].
