A news report. B Christian Vieri, who was once the world’s most expensive footballer when he moved to Inter Milan in 1999 for £30m, has a deep love for cricket (板球). Having spent his childhood in Australia, he grew up watching cricket at the Sydney Cricket Ground and admired West Indies players like Viv Richards and Joel Garner. His favorite Australian player was Allan Border, who even gave him a cricket bat. He especially admires the confidence of West Indies players, believing that confidence is essential in life. As a legend of Italian football and the Italian national team, Vieri holds the record for most World Cup goals scored by an Italian player with nine. His journey in football began in Australia with Marconi Stallions before he moved to Italy at age 14. His grandfather, who believed in his talent, rewarded him with money for each goal he scored in his early games. Vieri’s football career took off when he joined Juventus, where he played alongside Zinedine Zidane. He then moved to Atlético Madrid, where he became the top scorer in the league. His biggest move came when he joined Inter Milan, where he became a club legend by scoring 123 goals in 190 games. Despite playing with stars like Ronaldo and Roberto Baggio, he only won one major trophy during his time there. Throughout his career, Vieri was known for his powerful playing style and confidence both on and off the field. He played for many clubs including Milan, Monaco, and Fiorentina, but it was at Inter Milan that he stayed the longest and made his biggest impact. His combination of speed, power, and skill made him stand out among Italian forwards of his era. Today, Vieri runs various businesses including a YouTube channel, a beer company, and a restaurant chain. He’s happily married and has two daughters, saying he’s never been happier. Despite his successful football career, he still maintains his love for cricket, showing how his Australian childhood influenced his life. 4. What do we know about Vieri’s early football experience? A. He started at an Italian club. B. His grandfather gave him encouragement. C. He wanted to get financial support from his grandfather. D. His talent was recognized by a cricket player. 5. Why was Vieri’s time at Atlético Madrid significant? A. He won his first major trophy. B. He formed a partnership with Zidane. C. He established himself as a top scorer. D. He became a club legend immediately. 6. What is the author’s attitude towards Vieri’s post-retirement life? A. Approving. B. Envious. C. Sympathetic. D. Uninterested. 7. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Christian Vieri: A Football Legend’s Cricket Love B. From Australia to Italy: Vieri’s Football Journey C. The Story of Inter Milan’s All-Time Top Scorer D. Christian Vieri: A Life Shaped by Double Passions C Antarctica, known for its massive ice sheets, is also home to many volcanoes. Although most of these volcanoes are dormant, scientists think they could become active again as the surrounding ice melts. This happened before, after the last ice age, between 12,000 and 7,000 years ago, when volcanic activity increased by two to six times as glaciers melted. Today, human-caused climate change is creating a new period of warming. While scientists once thought Antarctica would be less affected by global warming, the region is now showing clear signs of change, including unusual heat waves and significant ice loss. As the ice melts, it reduces pressure on the volcanoes below, which could lead to eruptions, much like the act of opening a bottle of fizzy drink (碳酸饮料). Antarctica has over 130 known volcanoes, many hidden under the ice, but some are still active. Mount Erebus is the tallest active volcano there and has been erupting for decades. If more volcanoes become active due to ice loss, it could create a cycle where volcanic activity speeds up ice melting. This happens because volcanic ash makes the surface darker, causing it to absorb more heat. Scientists worry that if under-ice volcanoes erupt, they could help break up the ice sheet in West Antarctica, making large pieces of ice fall into the ocean and raise sea levels. The volcanic activity would also release more greenhouse gases, making Earth warmer and leading to more ice loss, which could trigger more volcanic eruptions. However, scientists are careful about making predictions. As Virginie Pinel, a volcano expert, explains, “Volcanic systems develop over hundreds of thousands of years, while climate change happens over decades. We don’t have enough experience to fully understand the changes happening in volcanic activity.” Still, studying these changes helps scientists better understand what makes volcanic eruptions happen, such as a real-world experiment. The research continues as scientists work to predict how these complex systems might interact in the future. 8. Why does the author mention the last ice age? A. To show past ice melt caused eruptions. B. To prove current warming is unusual. C. To compare volcanic activity across periods. D. To explain the cycle of climate change. 9. How does volcanic ash affect ice melting? A. It reflects sunlight. B. It causes heat absorption. C. It increases ice thickness. D. It releases greenhouse gases. 10. What does the underlined word “trigger” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Reduce. B. Prevent. C. Cause. D. Delay. 11. What do scientists emphasize about volcanic systems and climate change? A. They operate on different timelines. B. Their interaction is predictable. C. Volcanic activity speed up climate change. D. Climate change has little impact on volcanoes. D When you consider a salmon or a pigeon, your first thought is probably not about quantum mechanics (量子力学) and yet, that’s precisely what the evidence suggests: these animals exploit some of the most advanced science currently understood by humans in their everyday lives. According to a new paper, they’re doing so in ways that push at the very limits of quantum physics. The performance of a magnetic (有磁性的) sensor depends on three things: its volume, sensitivity, and measurement time. The smaller the sensor, the more sensitive the magnet. However, when devices get too small, they enter the quantum world. This brings both advantages and challenges in magnetometry (磁测量): the tiny scale reduces noise and increases sensitivity, but it also makes the system delicate, as quantum states can be easily disturbed. Even in the quantum world, there’s a limit on how small you can go. Both theoretically and experimentally, the limit for magnetic sensitivity is set at Planck’s constant — an incredibly small value. Biologists have long known that many animals can sense magnetic fields — it’s how birds navigate, how foxes hunt, and how dogs find their way around. “During the last six decades scientists have considered several biophysical mechanisms explaining biological magnetoreception (磁感受作用),” explains a statement from the University of Crete, but they are not yet fully understood. Researchers Kominis and Gkoudinakis decided to work backwards, using known physical laws to understand these mechanisms. Their results showed that some proposed mechanisms for biological magnetoreception would be operating right at the quantum limit — like a TV operating with the highest possible resolution. The findings suggest we shouldn’t feel discouraged about coming second to animals in this ability. Now that we better understand how they do it, we might be able to improve our own lab-based magnetic sensors. As Kominis told Physics magazine, “If scientists want to make the most sensitive measurements, we have to go quantum. Modeling biological magnetic sensors can guide such quantum engineering.” 12. What does the evidence suggest about animals? A. They know quantum mechanics. B. They use quantum mechanics in life. C. They can explain quantum physics. D. They are not related to quantum mechanics. 13. What is the main challenge faced by quantum magnetometry? A. Lack of research data. B. High cost of production. C. Easily disturbed quantum states. D. Low sensitivity in measurement. 14. What approach did Kominis and Gkoudinakis take to study biological magnetoreception? A. Observing bird navigation. B. Creating quantum experiments. C. Analyzing animal movement data. D. Using known physical laws backward. 15. What could be the future focus of quantum engineering? A. Exploring new animals’ behaviors. B. Developing biological theories. C. Reducing the size of sensors. D. Copying biological magnetic sensors. 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。 What’s the key to leading a harmonious life?

While some students focus on their studies or social media, Luna consistently finds ways to help others. She’s the first to welcome new students, always ready with a warm smile and helpful directions. Her story truly touched my heart last winter, when our school organized a charity book fair. The event aimed to collect used books for children in rural areas. Most students brought one or two books, but Luna arrived with three large boxes. She had spent weekends sorting through her personal library, selecting books that would be suitable for younger readers. What made her donation even more special was that she included handwritten notes in each book, encouraging the future readers to explore the joy of reading. However, what impressed me most wasn’t the quantity of books she donated, but what happened next. As we were organizing the books Sarah, a quiet freshman who rarely spoke to anyone, approached our table. She picked up a copy of The Little Prince and her eyes lit up. “I’ve always wanted to read this,” she whispered, more to herself than to us. Luna overheard her and noticed Sarah’s worn backpack and hesitant behavior. The way Sarah carefully handled the book, gently turning each page as if it might crumble (碎裂), spoke volumes about her love for reading and her inability to afford books of her own. Throughout the semester, Luna had saved money from her part-time job at the local library to buy new books for herself. She worked extra shifts during weekends and holidays, carefully setting aside a portion of her earnings for her beloved book collection. Without hesitation, she reached into her bag and pulled out a brand-new copy of The Little Prince that she had purchased just days before. “Here,” she said to Sarah, “This one’s for you. Everyone should own their favorite book.” The joy in Sarah’s eyes was indescribable, and from that day forward, the two developed a beautiful friendship bonded by their shared love of literature. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 However the following week brought unexpected challenges. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Watching Luna, I realized rumors (谣言) hadn’t changed her. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 绝密★启用前 2024—2025学年下学期期末测评试卷 高二英语 注意事项： 1. 本试卷共8页，满分150分，考试时间120分钟。考生答题全部答在答题卡上，答在本试卷上无效。 2. 请认真核对监考教师在答题卡上所粘贴条形码的姓名、准考证号是否与本人相符合，再将自己的姓名、准考证号用0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔填写在答题卡及本试卷上。 3. 答选择题必须用2B铅笔将答题卡上对应的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，请用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案。答非选择题必须用0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔写在答题卡的指定位置，在其他位置答题一律无效。 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。 1.

Having spent his childhood in Australia, he grew up watching cricket at the Sydney Cricket Ground and admired West Indies players like Viv Richards and Joel Garner. His favorite Australian player was Allan Border, who even gave him a cricket bat. He especially admires the confidence of West Indies players, believing that confidence is essential in life. As a legend of Italian football and the Italian national team, Vieri holds the record for most World Cup goals scored by an Italian player with nine. His journey in football began in Australia with Marconi Stallions before he moved to Italy at age 14. His grandfather, who believed in his talent, rewarded him with money for each goal he scored in his early games. Vieri’s football career took off when he joined Juventus, where he played alongside Zinedine Zidane. He then moved to Atlético Madrid, where he became the top scorer in the league. His biggest move came when he joined Inter Milan, where he became a club legend by scoring 123 goals in 190 games. Despite playing with stars like Ronaldo and Roberto Baggio, he only won one major trophy during his time there. Throughout his career, Vieri was known for his powerful playing style and confidence both on and off the field. He played for many clubs including Milan, Monaco, and Fiorentina, but it was at Inter Milan that he stayed the longest and made his biggest impact. His combination of speed, power, and skill made him stand out among Italian forwards of his era. Today, Vieri runs various businesses including a YouTube channel, a beer company, and a restaurant chain. He’s happily married and has two daughters, saying he’s never been happier.

He’s happily married and has two daughters, saying he’s never been happier.(如今，维里经营着多种业务，包括一个YouTube频道、一家啤酒公司以及一家连锁餐厅。他婚姻幸福，育有两个女儿，并表示自己从未如此快乐过)”可知，作者用“happily”“never been happier”等积极词汇描述维埃里退役后的生活，且列举其成功的商业成就，可推知作者对其退役生活持赞赏态度。故选A。 7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Despite his successful football career, he still maintains his love for cricket, showing how his Australian childhood influenced his life.(尽管他在足球领域取得了成功，但他依然热爱板球运动，这表明他早年在澳大利亚的生活经历对他的人生产生了深远的影响)”以及全文既讲述维埃里的足球职业生涯（主线），又穿插其对板球的热爱（如童年受澳大利亚影响、至今保持热爱），故D选项“克里斯蒂安·维里：一段由双重激情塑造的人生”最符合文章标题。故选D。 C Antarctica, known for its massive ice sheets, is also home to many volcanoes. Although most of these volcanoes are dormant, scientists think they could become active again as the surrounding ice melts. This happened before, after the last ice age, between 12,000 and 7,000 years ago, when volcanic activity increased by two to six times as glaciers melted. Today, human-caused climate change is creating a new period of warming. While scientists once thought Antarctica would be less affected by global warming, the region is now showing clear signs of change, including unusual heat waves and significant ice loss. As the ice melts, it reduces pressure on the volcanoes below, which could lead to eruptions, much like the act of opening a bottle of fizzy drink (碳酸饮料). Antarctica has over 130 known volcanoes, many hidden under the ice, but some are still active. Mount Erebus is the tallest active volcano there and has been erupting for decades. If more volcanoes become active due to ice loss, it could create a cycle where volcanic activity speeds up ice melting. This happens because volcanic ash makes the surface darker, causing it to absorb more heat. Scientists worry that if under-ice volcanoes erupt, they could help break up the ice sheet in West Antarctica, making large pieces of ice fall into the ocean and raise sea levels. The volcanic activity would also release more greenhouse gases, making Earth warmer and leading to more ice loss, which could trigger more volcanic eruptions. However, scientists are careful about making predictions. As Virginie Pinel, a volcano expert, explains, “Volcanic systems develop over hundreds of thousands of years, while climate change happens over decades. We don’t have enough experience to fully understand the changes happening in volcanic activity.” Still, studying these changes helps scientists better understand what makes volcanic eruptions happen, such as a real-world experiment. The research continues as scientists work to predict how these complex systems might interact in the future. 8. Why does the author mention the last ice age? A. To show past ice melt caused eruptions. B. To prove current warming is unusual. C. To compare volcanic activity across periods. D. To explain the cycle of climate change. 9. How does volcanic ash affect ice melting? A. It reflects sunlight. B. It causes heat absorption. C. It increases ice thickness. D. It releases greenhouse gases. 10. What does the underlined word “trigger” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Reduce. B. Prevent. C. Cause. D. Delay. 11. What do scientists emphasize about volcanic systems and climate change? A. They operate on different timelines. B. Their interaction is predictable. C. Volcanic activity speed up climate change. D. Climate change has little impact on volcanoes. 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了南极火山因气候变暖、冰层融化可能活跃及引发的连锁反应与科学担忧。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“This happened before, after the last ice age, between 12,000 and 7,000 years ago, when volcanic activity increased by two to six times as glaciers melted.(这种情况以前发生过，在上一个冰河时代之后，也就是12000到7000年前，当时随着冰川融化，火山活动增加了两到六倍)”可推知，作者提到上一个冰河时代是为了说明过去冰层融化曾导致火山活动增加，即过去的冰层融化引发了火山喷发。故选A项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“This happens because volcanic ash makes the surface darker, causing it to absorb more heat.(这是因为火山灰使表面变暗，导致其吸收更多热量)”可知，火山灰会使冰面吸收更多热量，从而加速冰层融化。故选B项。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段中的“The volcanic activity would also release more greenhouse gases, making Earth warmer and leading to more ice loss, which could trigger more volcanic eruptions.(火山活动还会释放更多温室气体，使地球变暖，导致更多冰层流失，这可能会trigger更多火山喷发)”可知，冰川融化会引发火山爆发，而火山爆发释放的温室气体又会加剧冰川融化，进而引发更多火山爆发，形成恶性循环，因此“trigger”意为“引发”，与“Cause”意思相近。故选C项。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“As Virginie Pinel, a volcano expert, explains, “Volcanic systems develop over hundreds of thousands of years, while climate change happens over decades. We don’t have enough experience to fully understand the changes happening in volcanic activity.”(正如火山专家弗吉妮·皮内尔解释的那样：“火山系统的发展需要数十万年，而气候变化则发生在几十年内。我们没有足够的经验来完全理解火山活动中发生的变化。”)”可知，火山系统的发展历经数十万年，而气候变化在几十年内就会发生，说明它们的运行时间线不同。故选A项。 D When you consider a salmon or a pigeon, your first thought is probably not about quantum mechanics (量子力学) and yet, that’s precisely what the evidence suggests: these animals exploit some of the most advanced science currently understood by humans in their everyday lives. According to a new paper, they’re doing so in ways that push at the very limits of quantum physics. The performance of a magnetic (有磁性的) sensor depends on three things: its volume, sensitivity, and measurement time. The smaller the sensor, the more sensitive the magnet. However, when devices get too small, they enter the quantum world. This brings both advantages and challenges in magnetometry (磁测量): the tiny scale reduces noise and increases sensitivity, but it also makes the system delicate, as quantum states can be easily disturbed. Even in the quantum world, there’s a limit on how small you can go. Both theoretically and experimentally, the limit for magnetic sensitivity is set at Planck’s constant — an incredibly small value. Biologists have long known that many animals can sense magnetic fields — it’s how birds navigate, how foxes hunt, and how dogs find their way around. “During the last six decades scientists have considered several biophysical mechanisms explaining biological magnetoreception (磁感受作用),” explains a statement from the University of Crete, but they are not yet fully understood. Researchers Kominis and Gkoudinakis decided to work backwards, using known physical laws to understand these mechanisms. Their results showed that some proposed mechanisms for biological magnetoreception would be operating right at the quantum limit — like a TV operating with the highest possible resolution. The findings suggest we shouldn’t feel discouraged about coming second to animals in this ability. Now that we better understand how they do it, we might be able to improve our own lab-based magnetic sensors. As Kominis told Physics magazine, “If scientists want to make the most sensitive measurements, we have to go quantum. Modeling biological magnetic sensors can guide such quantum engineering.” 12. What does the evidence suggest about animals? A. They know quantum mechanics. B. They use quantum mechanics in life. C. They can explain quantum physics. D. They are not related to quantum mechanics. 13. What is the main challenge faced by quantum magnetometry? A. Lack of research data. B. High cost of production. C. Easily disturbed quantum states. D. Low sensitivity in measurement. 14. What approach did Kominis and Gkoudinakis take to study biological magnetoreception? A. Observing bird navigation. B. Creating quantum experiments. C. Analyzing animal movement data. D. Using known physical laws backward. 15. What could be the future focus of quantum engineering? A. Exploring new animals’ behaviors. B. Developing biological theories. C. Reducing the size of sensors. D. Copying biological magnetic sensors. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍动物在日常生活中利用量子力学，科学家通过已知物理定律反向研究生物磁感受机制，发现其接近量子极限，这可能为量子工程中改进磁传感器提供指导。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“When you consider a salmon or a pigeon, your first thought is probably not about quantum mechanics (量子力学) and yet, that’s precisely what the evidence suggests: these animals exploit some of the most advanced science currently understood by humans in their everyday lives. (当你考虑鲑鱼或鸽子时，你的第一个想法可能不是关于量子力学，然而，这正是证据所表明的：这些动物在日常生活中利用了人类目前所理解的一些最先进的科学。)”可知，证据表明动物在生活中利用了量子力学。故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“This brings both advantages and challenges in magnetometry (磁测量): the tiny scale reduces noise and increases sensitivity, but it also makes the system delicate, as quantum states can be easily disturbed.(这给磁力测量带来了优势和挑战：微小的尺度降低了噪声，提高了灵敏度，但也使系统变得脆弱，因为量子态很容易受到干扰。)”可知，量子磁测量面临的主要挑战是量子态易受干扰。故选C项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Researchers Kominis and Gkoudinakis decided to work backwards, using known physical laws to understand these mechanisms.(研究人员Kominis和Gkoudinakis决定逆向工作，使用已知的物理定律来理解这些机制。)”可知，他们采用反向利用已知物理定律的方法研究生物磁感受机制。故选D项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Modeling biological magnetic sensors can guide such quantum engineering.(对生物磁传感器进行建模可以指导这种量子工程。)”可推知，量子工程未来可能聚焦于模仿生物磁传感器。故选D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。 What’s the key to leading a harmonious life?

While some students focus on their studies or social media, Luna consistently finds ways to help others. She’s the first to welcome new students, always ready with a warm smile and helpful directions. Her story truly touched my heart last winter, when our school organized a charity book fair. The event aimed to collect used books for children in rural areas. Most students brought one or two books, but Luna arrived with three large boxes. She had spent weekends sorting through her personal library, selecting books that would be suitable for younger readers. What made her donation even more special was that she included handwritten notes in each book, encouraging the future readers to explore the joy of reading. However, what impressed me most wasn’t the quantity of books she donated, but what happened next. As we were organizing the books, Sarah, a quiet freshman who rarely spoke to anyone, approached our table. She picked up a copy of The Little Prince and her eyes lit up. “I’ve always wanted to read this,” she whispered, more to herself than to us. Luna overheard her and noticed Sarah’s worn backpack and hesitant behavior. The way Sarah carefully handled the book, gently turning each page as if it might crumble (碎裂), spoke volumes about her love for reading and her inability to afford books of her own. Throughout the semester, Luna had saved money from her part-time job at the local library to buy new books for herself. She worked extra shifts during weekends and holidays, carefully setting aside a portion of her earnings for her beloved book collection. Without hesitation, she reached into her bag and pulled out a brand-new copy of The Little Prince that she had purchased just days before. “Here,” she said to Sarah, “This one’s for you. Everyone should own their favorite book.” The joy in Sarah’s eyes was indescribable, and from that day forward, the two developed a beautiful friendship bonded by their shared love of literature. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 However, the following week brought unexpected challenges. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Watching Luna, I realized rumors (谣言) hadn’t changed her. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 However, the following week brought unexpected challenges. Several students began spreading rumors that Luna was only being kind to gain attention. Some even suggested that her parents were forcing her to donate books to improve their family’s image in the community. Luna’s genuine acts of kindness were being twisted into calculated moves for personal gain. The whispers in the hallways grew louder, and some students who had once praised her generosity now viewed her with skepticism. Watching Luna, I realized rumors (谣言) hadn’t changed her. In fact, they seemed to make her even more determined to be kind. She continued volunteering at the local library, tutoring younger students, and sharing her lunch with anyone who forgot theirs. The same warmth that had touched Sarah’s life continued to spread throughout our school community. Luna’s firm commitment to kindness, despite the criticism she faced, taught us all a valuable lesson. She showed us that true generosity doesn’t need praise or attention; it simply flows from the heart. 【解析】 【导语】本文以露娜的善举为线索展开，主要讲述了露娜在学校慈善书展上慷慨捐赠并帮助新生萨拉，后面对谣言仍坚持行善的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然而，接下来的一周带来了意想不到的挑战。”可知，第一段可描写关于露娜的谣言开始传播，她的善举被曲解，同学们对她的态度发生变化。 ②由第二段首句内容“看着露娜，我意识到谣言并没有改变她”可知，第二段可描写露娜不受谣言影响，继续坚持行善，以及作者从她身上得到的感悟。 2.续写线索：露娜捐赠书籍助萨拉——谣言四起曲解善举——同学态度转变生质疑——露娜坚守本心续行善——作者观其行领悟真谛——善良源于内心不图回报 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①传播谣言：spread rumors/circulate gossip ②捐赠书籍：donate books/give away books ③辅导：tutor/coach/guide in study 情绪类 ①怀疑：skepticism/doubt/uncertainty ②坚定的：determined/firm/resolute 【点睛】【高分句型1】Several students began spreading rumors that Luna was only being kind to gain attention.（运用了that引导的同位语动词） 【高分句型2】She continued volunteering at the local library, tutoring younger students, and sharing her lunch with anyone who forgot theirs.（运用了who引导的限定性定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
