B When Bella Lin was 12 years old, she noticed that her guinea pigs (豚鼠) seemed unhappy in their small cage with “prison-like bars”, Lin told the CNBC Make It website. Focusing on finding an alternative to traditional cages for her pets, the now 17-year-old from Mountain View, US, began her designs. Lin experimented with multiple designs and used around $2,000 from her savings to start her side business, Guinea Loft, on Amazon in November 2022. It made a big difference and sold nearly 11,000 cages and brought in more than $410,000 in 2023, according to CNBC Make It. Initially, Lin informed her father of her desire to develop an improved cage. Her father had relations with a family-owned factory in China through a previous client, and he reached out to them. Traditional guinea pig cages typically consist of bars, roofs, and either tarp (防水布) or plastic bottoms, making them hard to clean and often smell bad. Lin’s initial glass, open-floor cages offered more visibility and mobility, with a two-layered bottom. This design allows for the easy removal of soiled bedding by pushing it into a removable plastic tray (托盘). However, due to high shipping costs, the glass material was impractical, and the open floor caused problems for her smaller guinea pigs, as their feet would get stuck. Lin and her six-person team in China devoted late nights to researching and testing products. Her team handled the sourcing, manufacturing, packaging and photography of the products. In the end, they chose acrylic, instead of glass, and crafted replaceable bottoms, as Lin described it. The bottoms are easy to throw out, which is good for business: Once customers run out of the bottoms, they have to visit Lin’s Amazon store again to restock. “Witnessing the practical effects of Guinea Loft cages through customer reviews and emails is empowering,” Lin said. “As someone who once placed great emphasis on academic recognition, the success of my side business has boosted my confidence in exploring life beyond high school.” 4. What inspired Lin to design a new cage for guinea pigs? A. The huge profits in her business. B. Their bad living conditions. C. Her unpleasant experience at school. D. Her desire to replace old cages. 5. What is a major advantage of Lin’s new cage? A. It is waterproof. B. It lasts long. C. It is easy to clean. D. It smells nice. 6. How does Lin sound in the last paragraph? A. Humorous. B. Concerned. C. Encouraged. D. Curious. 7. What may be a suitable title for the text? A. Inventing for Our Pets B. Running a Side Business C. Bella Lin’s Academic Achievements D. The Application of Guinea Pig Cages C Have you ever had the feeling that you can’t think when there is too much noise around? Did you ever think a fish could experience that feeling too? A recent paper published in Science titled “Soundscape (声景) of the Anthropocene Oceans”, combined over 10,000 scientific papers, confirming that undersea life knows that exact same feeling, more often than not. Anthropogenic (人为的) ocean noise, also known as underwater noise pollution, has created a dramatic impact on marine life due to “human-caused” activity within and neighboring our oceans. Disney Pixar’s animated film Finding Nemo educated us about the ocean, and specifically within the ordinary world of a clown fish. A fact many may not know is that clown fish spend the first part of their lives as larvae, drifting with the current of the ocean until they become strong enough to swim against it. Once they are powerful and strong, they head home in sheltered coral reefs. There is only one drawback — the fish can’t physically see the reef, but they can hear it. The only problem is, if they can’t hear it, will they ever make it home? Our anthropogenic ocean noise, such as cargo ships, ship and boat propellers, surfing, deep sea mining, etc. are causing destruction of marine life. According to Time, sound is the sensory signal that travels the farthest through the ocean. Anthropogenic noise drowns out the natural soundscapes, putting marine life under immense stress. Altogether, this stress then affects their general health, disrupts their behavior, physiology, reproduction and, in extreme cases, causes death. Marine life can adapt to noise pollution, however, only if they can escape it. This only renders further complications of straying (使偏离) species from their traditional breeding regions or separating them from their families. Now, what if we told you there is already a solution? Multiple remedies, ideas and designs are currently in the works or already exist to eliminate and reverse the damage of anthropogenic ocean noise. As Time explains, from wind-powered ships to noise-reducing propellers, floating wind turbines and “bubble curtains” that muffle construction noise, the solutions are already available and in some cases, cost-effective. The authors of the paper hope it will catch the attention of policymakers, who historically speaking, have ignored the matter still to this day. Of all the challenges ocean creatures are battling, luckily sound pollution is the easiest compromise humans can make. Once the noise has decreased, marine life will be able to better manage everything else it is up against. 8. How does anthropogenic ocean noise affect clown fish? A. It improves their reproduction rates. B. It promotes their better development. C. It hinders them from finding their home. D. It causes them to give up their migration in the ocean. 9. What does the underlined word “renders” probably mean in paragraph 3? A. leads to B. decides on C. holds back D. results from 10 Which of the following solutions is already available according to paragraph 4? A. The application of relevant laws B. The use of noise control technology. C. The restriction of human activities. D. The attention of local policymakers. 11. What is the text mainly about? A. The beauty of marine ecosystems. B. The urgent need for ocean conservation. C. The impact of climate change on ocean noise. D. The harmful effects of human-generated ocean noise. D Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) are indicating that accurate quake forecasting may be attainable, thereby casting doubt on the conventional wisdom that such an accomplishment is beyond our capabilities. Researchers at the University of Texas, Austin, created an AI model that, during a test run in China, correctly forecasted approximately 70 percent of earthquakes with a one-week warning and offered reliable assessments of their potential intensity. The researchers attribute their technique’s effectiveness to its reliance on a straightforward machine learning framework. The AI was provided with a set of statistical features based on the team’s knowledge of earthquake physics, and then instructed to train itself using a five-year database of earthquake recordings. Once trained, the AI offered predictions by detecting early indicators of quakes hidden within the planet’s low-frequency rumbles (隆隆声). The project marks a substantial breakthrough in the exploration of AI for anticipating seismic (地震) events. According to Alexandros Savvaidis, a senior researcher heading the Texas Seismological Network, “Seismic occurrences strike without warning, often in the blink of an eye. Your readiness is all you can influence. Achieving a 70% prediction rate is a considerable achievement that could significantly restrict the impact of earthquakes, reducing both the financial burden and loss of life, and the potential to remarkably improve earthquake preparation worldwide.” Although the effectiveness of this method in different regions remains uncertain, the researchers believe that their AI model has the potential to enhance prediction accuracy when carried out in regions equipped with dependable seismic monitoring facilities. Their next step is to test artificial intelligence in Texas, where the University of Texas’s TexNet operates a network of 300 earthquake stations and over six years’ worth of continuous records, making it an ideal location for these purposes. Ultimately, the authors aim to combine the system with physics-based models. This approach could be particularly valuable in areas characterized by limited or inadequate data. “That may be a long way off, but many advances such as this one, taken together, are what moves science forward,” concludes Scott Tinker, the bureau’s director. 12. How does the AI predict seismic events? A. By using a simple machine learning system. B. By identifying hidden signs in the rumbles. C. By relying on experts’ earthquake knowledge. D. By analyzing data of earthquake recordings. 13. What does Alexandros Savvaidis intend to show in paragraph 3? A. The ways to reduce losses in earthquakes. B. The importance of preparing for earthquakes. C. The significance of developing the AI prediction. D. The restrictions of AI-based methods in earthquake prediction. 14. What does the subsequent research focus on? A. Conducting tests in different locations. B. Applying the AI approach to other fields. C. Building more earthquake stations in Texas. D. Enlarging the database to train the calculation accuracy. 15 Which words can best describe the earthquake-predicting technology? A. Stable but outdated. B. Effective but costly. C. Potential and economical. D. Pioneering and promising. 第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Sitting a bad exam can be disheartening.

My class of first-graders was feverishly anticipating their summer vacation. To add a joyful flavor, I had some balloons brought in, but for me, this holiday was bittersweet. I’d just moved to this city and couldn’t afford to fly back to accompany Dad. He was desperately missing me, for it was his first summer without me. When switching off the light on my way out, I noticed the balloons near the window. Unsure what to do with them, I grabbed the thirteen strings and stuffed them into the backseat of my car. Their rainbow of colors lifted my spirits and gratefully, I didn’t feel so alone. As the city was still foreign to me, I decided to go for a drive and soon found myself winding down a stretch of road where the trees overhead covered each other. The branches reminded me of two friends stretching out to greet each other. Before long, a retirement home appeared. It was a place with a feeling of forgottenness and I spotted a man sitting alone in the shade outside. I felt a sudden urge to pull in. But the balloons in my backseat blocked my view-then I knew what to do with them. Opening the door and grabbing one of the strings, I waved to the man, and he smiled. His name was Daniel and he was about Dad’s age. When I handed him the balloon, he grinned (咧嘴笑)，“Thanks. It gives a little color to my life.” While tying it to his chair, he looked happier than when I arrived. So I smiled, “You’re welcome, Daniel. Perhaps I’ll see you again sometime.” Unexpectedly, he replied, “Perhaps, but probably not. Visitors are always welcome, but rarely come.” His words forced me to slide over an old chair next to his. Then we began chatting about our lives and his voice always reminded me of Dad. I’d thought it would be boring talking with a stranger. But it wasn’t; it was enlightening — I had been feeling lonely, and so had Daniel, and so had the residents in the retirement home. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右：(2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Then I remembered the other twelve balloons in the backseat. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Over the next six months, I visited Daniel often. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 赣州中学2026届高三开学测试 英语试卷 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

Lin and her six-person team in China devoted late nights to researching and testing products. Her team handled the sourcing, manufacturing, packaging and photography of the products. In the end, they chose acrylic, instead of glass, and crafted replaceable bottoms, as Lin described it. The bottoms are easy to throw out, which is good for business: Once customers run out of the bottoms, they have to visit Lin’s Amazon store again to restock. “Witnessing the practical effects of Guinea Loft cages through customer reviews and emails is empowering,” Lin said. “As someone who once placed great emphasis on academic recognition, the success of my side business has boosted my confidence in exploring life beyond high school.” 4. What inspired Lin to design a new cage for guinea pigs? A. The huge profits in her business. B. Their bad living conditions. C. Her unpleasant experience at school. D. Her desire to replace old cages. 5. What is a major advantage of Lin’s new cage? A. It is waterproof. B. It lasts long. C. It is easy to clean. D. It smells nice. 6.

Did you ever think a fish could experience that feeling too? A recent paper published in Science titled “Soundscape (声景) of the Anthropocene Oceans”, combined over 10,000 scientific papers, confirming that undersea life knows that exact same feeling, more often than not. Anthropogenic (人为的) ocean noise, also known as underwater noise pollution, has created a dramatic impact on marine life due to “human-caused” activity within and neighboring our oceans. Disney Pixar’s animated film Finding Nemo educated us about the ocean, and specifically within the ordinary world of a clown fish. A fact many may not know is that clown fish spend the first part of their lives as larvae, drifting with the current of the ocean until they become strong enough to swim against it. Once they are powerful and strong, they head home in sheltered coral reefs. There is only one drawback — the fish can’t physically see the reef, but they can hear it. The only problem is, if they can’t hear it, will they ever make it home? Our anthropogenic ocean noise, such as cargo ships, ship and boat propellers, surfing, deep sea mining, etc. are causing destruction of marine life. According to Time, sound is the sensory signal that travels the farthest through the ocean. Anthropogenic noise drowns out the natural soundscapes, putting marine life under immense stress. Altogether, this stress then affects their general health, disrupts their behavior, physiology, reproduction and, in extreme cases, causes death. Marine life can adapt to noise pollution, however, only if they can escape it. This only renders further complications of straying (使偏离) species from their traditional breeding regions or separating them from their families. Now, what if we told you there is already a solution? Multiple remedies, ideas and designs are currently in the works or already exist to eliminate and reverse the damage of anthropogenic ocean noise. As Time explains, from wind-powered ships to noise-reducing propellers, floating wind turbines and “bubble curtains” that muffle construction noise, the solutions are already available and in some cases, cost-effective. The authors of the paper hope it will catch the attention of policymakers, who historically speaking, have ignored the matter still to this day. Of all the challenges ocean creatures are battling, luckily sound pollution is the easiest compromise humans can make. Once the noise has decreased, marine life will be able to better manage everything else it is up against. 8. How does anthropogenic ocean noise affect clown fish? A. It improves their reproduction rates. B. It promotes their better development. C. It hinders them from finding their home. D. It causes them to give up their migration in the ocean. 9. What does the underlined word “renders” probably mean in paragraph 3? A. leads to B. decides on C. holds back D. results from 10. Which of the following solutions is already available according to paragraph 4? A. The application of relevant laws B. The use of noise control technology. C. The restriction of human activities. D. The attention of local policymakers. 11. What is the text mainly about? A. The beauty of marine ecosystems. B. The urgent need for ocean conservation. C. The impact of climate change on ocean noise. D. The harmful effects of human-generated ocean noise. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了人为海洋噪音对海洋生物造成的影响，以及目前存在的解决方案和对未来政策制定者的呼吁。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“There is only one drawback —the fish can’t physically see the reef, but they can hear it. The only problem is, if they can’t hear it, will they ever make it home?（只有一个缺点——鱼不能看到珊瑚礁，但它们可以听到它。唯一的问题是，如果他们听不到，他们还能回家吗？）”可知，人为的海洋噪音会阻碍小丑鱼找到回家的路。故选 C 项。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“Marine life can adapt to noise pollution, however, only if they can escape it. This only renders further complications of straying (使偏离) species from their traditional breeding regions or separating them from their families.（然而，海洋生物只有在能够逃脱噪音污染的情况下才能适应它。这只会导致物种偏离传统繁殖区域或与家人分离的进一步复杂化。）”可知，海洋生物会因为噪音污染而偏离传统繁殖区域或与家人分离，这是噪音污染带来的结果。由此可推知，划线单词“renders”的意思是“导致”，与选项 A 意思接近。故选 A 项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“As Time explains, from wind-powered ships to noise-reducing propellers, floating wind turbines and “bubble curtains” that muffle construction noise, the solutions are already available and in some cases, cost-effective.（正如《时代》杂志所解释的那样，从风力驱动的船只到降低噪音的螺旋桨、漂浮的风力涡轮机和抑制建筑噪音的“气泡窗帘”，这些解决方案已经有了，而且在某些情况下，还很划算。）”可知，已经有一些噪音控制技术可以用来减少人为的海洋噪音。故选 B 项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。文章第一段“Anthropogenic (人为的) ocean noise, also known as underwater noise pollution, has created a dramatic impact on marine life due to “human-caused” activity within and neighboring our oceans.（人为的海洋噪音，也被称为水下噪音污染，由于在我们的海洋内部和邻近海域的“人为”活动，已经对海洋生物造成了巨大的影响。）”指出了人为的海洋噪音对海洋生物的影响。文章第二段至第四段通过讲述小丑鱼的例子和海洋生物对噪音的适应性，进一步说明了噪音污染对海洋生物的危害。文章最后一段提出了一些已经存在的解决方案。由此可知，文章主要讲述的是人为产生的海洋噪音的有害影响。故选 D 项。 D Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) are indicating that accurate quake forecasting may be attainable, thereby casting doubt on the conventional wisdom that such an accomplishment is beyond our capabilities. Researchers at the University of Texas, Austin, created an AI model that, during a test run in China, correctly forecasted approximately 70 percent of earthquakes with a one-week warning and offered reliable assessments of their potential intensity. The researchers attribute their technique’s effectiveness to its reliance on a straightforward machine learning framework. The AI was provided with a set of statistical features based on the team’s knowledge of earthquake physics, and then instructed to train itself using a five-year database of earthquake recordings. Once trained, the AI offered predictions by detecting early indicators of quakes hidden within the planet’s low-frequency rumbles (隆隆声). The project marks a substantial breakthrough in the exploration of AI for anticipating seismic (地震) events. According to Alexandros Savvaidis, a senior researcher heading the Texas Seismological Network, “Seismic occurrences strike without warning, often in the blink of an eye. Your readiness is all you can influence. Achieving a 70% prediction rate is a considerable achievement that could significantly restrict the impact of earthquakes, reducing both the financial burden and loss of life, and the potential to remarkably improve earthquake preparation worldwide.” Although the effectiveness of this method in different regions remains uncertain, the researchers believe that their AI model has the potential to enhance prediction accuracy when carried out in regions equipped with dependable seismic monitoring facilities. Their next step is to test artificial intelligence in Texas, where the University of Texas’s TexNet operates a network of 300 earthquake stations and over six years’ worth of continuous records, making it an ideal location for these purposes. Ultimately, the authors aim to combine the system with physics-based models. This approach could be particularly valuable in areas characterized by limited or inadequate data. “That may be a long way off, but many advances such as this one, taken together, are what moves science forward,” concludes Scott Tinker, the bureau’s director. 12. How does the AI predict seismic events? A. By using a simple machine learning system. B. By identifying hidden signs in the rumbles. C. By relying on experts’ earthquake knowledge. D. By analyzing data of earthquake recordings. 13. What does Alexandros Savvaidis intend to show in paragraph 3? A. The ways to reduce losses in earthquakes. B. The importance of preparing for earthquakes. C. The significance of developing the AI prediction. D. The restrictions of AI-based methods in earthquake prediction. 14. What does the subsequent research focus on? A. Conducting tests in different locations. B. Applying the AI approach to other fields. C. Building more earthquake stations in Texas. D. Enlarging the database to train the calculation accuracy. 15. Which words can best describe the earthquake-predicting technology? A. Stable but outdated. B. Effective but costly. C. Potential and economical. D. Pioneering and promising. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了人工智能可以给出准确的地震预测，介绍了其工作原理以及意义。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Once trained, the AI offered predictions by detecting early indicators of quakes hidden within the planet’s low-frequency rumbles (隆隆声).(经过训练后，人工智能通过探测隐藏在地球低频隆隆声中的早期地震指标来提供预测。)”可知，人工智能通过识别隆隆声中隐藏的迹象预测地震事件。故选B。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“The project marks a substantial breakthrough in the exploration of AI for anticipating seismic (地震) events.

As 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇关于中国动画电影《浪浪山小妖怪》的影评，介绍了该电影在暑期票房成为黑马的情况，分析其成功源于中国神话根源、普世主题，还提及电影在叙事、视觉上的亮点，强调它证明了传统文化现代表达对中国动画发展的重要性。 【36题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：周日，它以1.06亿元的票房登顶每日票房榜，上映九天票房总收入达到5.59亿元。根据时间状语“on Sunday”，可知这里描述的是过去发生的具体动作，所以要用一般过去时。动词top意为“居……之首；为……之冠” ，其过去式为topped。故填topped。 【37题详解】 考查非限制性定语从句。句意：这部电影的成功源于它扎根于中国神话以及关于生存、尊严、勇气和生命的普世主题，这些深深地触动了观众的心弦。空处为非限制性定语从句，先行词为先行词是 “its roots in Chinese mythology and universal themes of survival, dignity, courage and life”，指物，在从句中作主语，所以用关系代词which引导。故填which。 【38题详解】 考查冠词。句意：它讲述了一只小猪妖与其他三个无名妖怪组队的故事。他们假扮成《西游记》里的唐僧师徒，从浪浪山出发，进行了一次滑稽的 “朝圣之旅”，从而走向自我成长。这里的“funny “pilgrimage””表示“一次有趣的朝拜之旅”，是泛指概念，funny是以辅音音素开头的单词，所以用不定冠词a。故填a。 【39题详解】 考查代词。句意：许多网友在这四个无名小妖怪身上看到了自己，称这部电影就像一面镜子。“see oneself in...”是常见表达，意思是“在……中看到自己”，此句中主语是Many netizens，所以要用反身代词themselves。故填themselves。 【40题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：它提醒我们，伟大的故事往往聚焦于渴望成为大人物的“小人物”，在这些故事里，我们都能找到自己的影子。“long to do sth.”是固定搭配，意为“渴望做某事”，这里表示“小人物”渴望成为“大人物”，所以用to be。故填to be。 【41题详解】 考查形容词。句意：除了强大的叙事能力，《浪浪山小妖怪》还是一封来自上海美术电影制片厂，写给中国艺术遗产的令人惊叹的视觉情书。这里需要一个形容词来修饰名词heritage，art的形容词形式是artistic，意思是“艺术的”，“artistic heritage”即“艺术遗产”。故填artistic。 【42题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：这种独特的东方美学，经现代技术更新，唤起了人们对传统文化基因的熟悉感。his unique Eastern aesthetic（这种独特的东方美学）和refresh（更新）之间是被动关系，即“东方美学被更新”，所以用过去分词refreshed作后置定语，修饰This unique Eastern aesthetic。故填refreshed。 【43题详解】 考查名词。句意：这种独特的东方美学，经现代技术更新，唤起了人们对传统文化基因的熟悉感。evoke是及物动词，后面需要接名词作宾语，familiar是形容词，其名词形式为familiarity，意为“熟悉”，“evoke familiarity with...”表示“唤起对……的熟悉感”。故填familiarity。 【44题详解】 考查介词。句意：简而言之，《浪浪山小妖怪》的突破不仅仅是票房上的胜利。它证明了，凭借对传统文化恰当的现代表达，中国动画能够走出自己的道路。这里with表示“凭借；利用”，“with proper modern expression of traditional culture”表示“凭借对传统文化的恰当现代表达”，符合语境。故填with。 【45题详解】 考查固定表达。句意：正如罗曼·罗兰所说：“世上只有一种真正的英雄主义，那就是在认清生活的真相后依然热爱生活。” “as sb. put it”是固定表达，意思是“正如某人所说”，位于句首，首字母要大写。故填As。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节 应用文写作（满分15分） 46. 假如你是李明，你校英文报正在为即将到来的体育节（sports festival）征集体育项目，请你给编辑写一封邮件，推荐一项有益的球类运动。内容包括： 1. 阐述该项目的优点；2. 说明开展的可行性。 注意： 1. 写作词数应为80个左右；2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear Editor, __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Ming 【答案】Dear Editor, I'm writing to suggest that we include badminton in the upcoming sports festival.

My class of first-graders was feverishly anticipating their summer vacation. To add a joyful flavor, I had some balloons brought in, but for me, this holiday was bittersweet. I’d just moved to this city and couldn’t afford to fly back to accompany Dad. He was desperately missing me, for it was his first summer without me. When switching off the light on my way out, I noticed the balloons near the window. Unsure what to do with them, I grabbed the thirteen strings and stuffed them into the backseat of my car. Their rainbow of colors lifted my spirits and gratefully, I didn’t feel so alone. As the city was still foreign to me, I decided to go for a drive and soon found myself winding down a stretch of road where the trees overhead covered each other. The branches reminded me of two friends stretching out to greet each other. Before long, a retirement home appeared. It was a place with a feeling of forgottenness and I spotted a man sitting alone in the shade outside. I felt a sudden urge to pull in. But the balloons in my backseat blocked my view-then I knew what to do with them. Opening the door and grabbing one of the strings, I waved to the man, and he smiled. His name was Daniel and he was about Dad’s age. When I handed him the balloon, he grinned (咧嘴笑)，“Thanks. It gives a little color to my life.” While tying it to his chair, he looked happier than when I arrived. So I smiled, “You’re welcome, Daniel. Perhaps I’ll see you again sometime.” Unexpectedly, he replied, “Perhaps, but probably not. Visitors are always welcome, but rarely come.” His words forced me to slide over an old chair next to his. Then we began chatting about our lives and his voice always reminded me of Dad. I’d thought it would be boring talking with a stranger. But it wasn’t; it was enlightening — I had been feeling lonely, and so had Daniel, and so had the residents in the retirement home. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右：(2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Then I remembered the other twelve balloons in the backseat. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Over the next six months, I visited Daniel often. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Then I remembered the other twelve balloons in the backseat. An idea sparked. I hurried to the car and returned with the vibrant bunch. Knocking on each resident’s door, I offered a balloon and a smile. Faces lit up like children receiving candies. An elderly lady tied hers to a walker, murmuring “Just like my granddaughter’s birthday.” Soon the courtyard bloomed with floating rainbows. Laughter echoed through the once-silent corridors. As twilight painted the sky, I sat surrounded by storytellers sipping lemonade. Their wrinkled hands patted mine gratefully. For the first time since moving here, loneliness dissolved like sugar in warm tea. Over the next six months, I visited Daniel often. We planted sunflowers by his window, their golden faces tracking the sun like old friends nodding hello. He taught me chess moves from his army days, and I read him newspaper crosswords. Gradually, my students joined our visits, crafting paper cranes with nimble fingers while veterans shared wartime stories. By Christmas, the home buzzed with cookie-baking aromas and carol singers. When Dad finally visited in December, he found me surrounded by silver-haired “adopted grandparents”. His eyes glistened as Daniel shook his hand, “Your daughter’s brought spring to our winter.” 【解析】 【导语】本文以作者的情感变化为线索展开，主要讲述了作者因无法回家陪伴父亲而感到孤独，在离校途中偶遇退休老人Daniel，通过送气球与他交流，最终收获温暖与陪伴的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然后我想起了后座的另外十二个气球。”可知，第一段可描写作者利用这些气球逐一拜访养老院里的每一位老人，将气球作为礼物送给他们，观察到这一简单举动带给老人们的喜悦变化。 ②由第二段首句内容“在接下来的六个月里，我经常去看望Daniel。”可知，第二段可描写作者与Daniel之间相处日常，以及更多人加入看望老人的活动，养老院变得温馨，父亲来访时的感动场景。 2.续写线索：想起剩余气球——逐一分发给老人——见到老人笑容——频繁探访Daniel——共同活动加深联系——学生加入带来更大影响 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①匆忙去：hurry to/rush to/hasten to ②提供：offer/give/provide ③系上：tie/fasten/attach 情绪类 ①感激：gratefully/thankfully/appreciatively ②孤独：loneliness/solitude 【点睛】【高分句型1】As twilight painted the sky, I sat surrounded by storytellers sipping lemonade.
