I considered postcards as simply a way to share travels until I came across my grandmother’s postcard album (专辑). It was a dark gray leather album, where most of the postcards had pictures that did not reflect a holiday or a travel destination. Instead, the notes were mostly invitations to a dinner party or, a walk the next day. “Why do these postcards ask you to come to tea?” I asked my grandmother. “Because this is how we communicated before we had a telephone,” she said. “I would post a postcard in the morning mail, and a friend would receive it that afternoon. Then she would post a reply that arrived in my mail the next morning.” I was surprised. Life without a phone sounded like something out of the world. Connecting by postcard seemed as unexpected as using a pigeon (鸽子). I had forgotten about my grandmother’s postcards until lockdowns (封锁) limited our trips to seeing our three granddaughters. Remembering my grandmother’s album, I bought several sets of cards and every few weeks, I’d write notes and mail them. Then one day I opened my mailbox and saw three hand-addressed envelopes. They were from my granddaughters, each thanking me for the postcards. The notes expressed their disappointment with the pandemic and described how my messages had comforted them. I had been thinking how my grandmother had accepted the telephone as a new way to keep relationships. Like her, I accepted the girls’ preferred way of communication and texted my thanks for their letters. However, even as the lock-downs end, I will continue to send them postcards because everyone enjoys receiving a real letter. 4. Why did the author’s grandmother write postcards? A. To share her travel experiences. B. To show love and care. C. To keep in touch with people. D. To kill the time. 5. What did the author think of life without a phone? A. It was unbelievable. B. It was peaceful. C. It was just as usual. D. It was attractive. 6. How did the author feel when receiving her granddaughters’ letters? A. Disappointed. B. Delighted. C. Regretful. D. Embarrassed. 7. Which one should be the title for the text? A. An Old Postcard Album B. New Ways of Communication C. Love during Lockdowns D. Attraction of Postcards C Why do some people always get lost while others navigate (导航) effortlessly? Research suggests that experience plays a bigger role than natural talent in developing a sense of direction. Scientists have studied how people find their way by observing them in virtual environments or real-life tasks. For example, subjects might be asked to point to an unseen location or imagine being somewhere else and direct a third spot. Results show wide differences: Some people are highly correct, while others seem to guess anyhow. A key factor is how you grew up. A 2020 virtual navigation test conducted by Queen Mary University of London on over 2,600 pairs of twins found that genetics (遗传学) explained only 30-40% of differences in navigation skills, while nonshared environmental factors accounted for 60-70%. Follow-up interviews showed these often included childhood experiences like cycling to school or family travel. This suggests good navigators develop through lived experience. Cultural background also matters. In Nordic countries, where orienteering (a sport connecting running and navigation) is popular, people tend to perform better. People in the countryside did better, on average, than people from cities. And those from cities with hard street arrangements such as those in the older parts of European cities outperform those from cities like Chicago, where the streets form a regular grid (棋盘), perhaps because people of grid cities don’t need to build such difficult mind pictures. To improve navigation skills, experts recommend targeted practice that strengthens both route-following and direction memory abilities. While GPS can be helpful, overusing it may weaken your natural navigation ability. Instead, observe noticeable things like buildings, bus stops, and street patterns to understand how locations connect. Doing this often helps build a clearer picture in the mind. Remember that navigation is a learnable skill — even poor navigators can improve their abilities with effort. 8. What is the finding about navigation research? A. Virtual trainings work effectively. B. Natural talent counts more. C. Real-life tasks affect significantly. D. Lived experience matters most. 9. How does the author support his opinion in paragraph 2? A. By conducting a field study. B. By giving a definition. C. By citing research findings. D. By making an assumption. 10. What does the underlined word “outperform” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Fall behind. B. Do better than. C. Match equally. D. Keep up with. 11. What tip do experts share with poor navigators? A. Follow one’s own sense of direction. B. Use GPS as much as possible. C. Draw simple maps while walking. D. Practice observing landmarks. D You forget to bring your water bottle to the airport, so you buy a plastic one and keep refilling it. Or you order takeout for dinner and save the black plastic container to pack your lunch the next day. Reuse is one of the core rules of sustainability. But should you be reusing these single-use plastics? Experts say no. Single-use plastics leach (滤出) chemicals and shed (释放) microplastics into your environment. Though studies have not directly compared single-use and reusable plastic, experts say they are more concerned about single-use plastics because of how they’re made. A single-use plastic water bottle sheds micro-and nanoplastics into your water when you refill it, and a takeout container or frozen meal tray sheds these particles into your food. Chemical exposure increases if plastic is heated, typically in a microwave, a dishwasher or even by placing hot food in a takeout container. When heat is applied, molecules move faster, meaning it could be easier for some of these particles to make its way into your food. The danger of heating your plastic also applies to reusable plastic, like baby bottles and plastic storage containers, according to Judith Enck, president of Beyond Plastics. Research found that black plastic in sushi trays, and other objects contain high levels of flame retardants (延缓剂). These poisonous chemicals have been linked to physical and mental problems. Concerns with chemicals and microplastics primarily apply to food, experts said, because you are swallowing them. Reusing single-use plastics like grocery bags is not a major concern, they added. The most important thing you should do is avoid subjecting your plastic to heat, experts agreed. “A pretty hard-and-fast rule is to never microwave plastic,” Enc k said. “And there’s also a recommendation not to put plastic into the dishwasher if it’s on a hot cycle.” If you order takeout, it’s best to transfer the food to a nonplastic dish as soon as possible, and you should use a plate when microwaving your food. 12. Why does the author list examples in the first paragraph? A. To lead in the topic. B. To prove the experts’ opinion. C. To analyse the reason. D. To introduce background information. 13. What can we learn from the research? A. Plastic bottles of good quality is encouraged to use. B. It is the chemicals in the materials that cause trouble. C. High temperature makes little difference to takeout food. D. Reusable plastic is more dangerous than single-use plastic. 14. Which situation poses the biggest threat to human’s health? A. Heating fast food in a glass bowl. B. Filling the grocery bag with meat. C. Packing cold drink with single-use plastics. D. Ordering hot soup contained in a plastic bag. 15. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Stop Using Single-use Plastics B. Reusing Single-use Plastics Is Harmful C. How to Correctly Use Single-use Plastics D. The Astonishing Fact of Single-use Plastics 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。 Having a good sense of humor makes you more enjoyable to be around. ____16____ .

So it was with Mama’s soup pot. Mama’s soup was special because there was no recipe for it. It had been so since her girlhood in Italy, where she learned its secret from her grandma, who had inherited (继承) it from generation to generation. Also, it was a symbol of security. For our large immigrant family, Mama’s soup guaranteed we would never go hungry. And we could judge our economic conditions by its contents. At one time, however, Mama’s soup pot became a source of embarrassment to me, for I feared it would cost me a new friend I had made at school. Sol was an unusual pal for me because his father was a doctor and they lived in the best part of our town. Often Sol invited me to his home for dinner, where I found the food was good but tasteless, lacking the heartiness of the one served from my mom’s flame-blackened pots. Moreover, the atmosphere matched the food and everything was so formal. Sol’s mother and father were polite, but the conversation around the table was not natural, which made me a little depressed. And no one hugged! In my family, warm hugs were a constant-men, women, boys and girls-and if you didn’t kiss your mother, she demanded: “What’s the matter? You sick?” But at that time in my life, all this was an embarrassment. I had known Sol would like to eat dinner at my house, but that was the last thing I wanted. My family was so different. No other kids had such pots on their stoves, nor did they have a mama whose first action upon seeing you enter the house was to sit you down with a spoon and bowl. One day, Sol pointedly asked if he could come to my house. I had to say yes. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式作答。 The day Sol came over I was nervous. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ But Sol quickly finished his bowl and asked for one more. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 海南省洋浦中学2025—2026学年第一学期开学作业检测 高二年级英语试题 (试卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟) 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?

Research suggests that experience plays a bigger role than natural talent in developing a sense of direction. Scientists have studied how people find their way by observing them in virtual environments or real-life tasks. For example, subjects might be asked to point to an unseen location or imagine being somewhere else and direct a third spot. Results show wide differences: Some people are highly correct, while others seem to guess anyhow. A key factor is how you grew up. A 2020 virtual navigation test conducted by Queen Mary University of London on over 2,600 pairs of twins found that genetics (遗传学) explained only 30-40% of differences in navigation skills, while nonshared environmental factors accounted for 60-70%. Follow-up interviews showed these often included childhood experiences like cycling to school or family travel. This suggests good navigators develop through lived experience. Cultural background also matters. In Nordic countries, where orienteering (a sport connecting running and navigation) is popular, people tend to perform better. People in the countryside did better, on average, than people from cities. And those from cities with hard street arrangements such as those in the older parts of European cities outperform those from cities like Chicago, where the streets form a regular grid (棋盘), perhaps because people of grid cities don’t need to build such difficult mind pictures. To improve navigation skills, experts recommend targeted practice that strengthens both route-following and direction memory abilities. While GPS can be helpful, overusing it may weaken your natural navigation ability. Instead, observe noticeable things like buildings, bus stops, and street patterns to understand how locations connect. Doing this often helps build a clearer picture in the mind. Remember that navigation is a learnable skill — even poor navigators can improve their abilities with effort. 8. What is the finding about navigation research? A. Virtual trainings work effectively. B. Natural talent counts more. C. Real-life tasks affect significantly. D. Lived experience matters most. 9. How does the author support his opinion in paragraph 2? A. By conducting a field study. B. By giving a definition. C. By citing research findings. D. By making an assumption. 10. What does the underlined word “outperform” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Fall behind. B. Do better than. C. Match equally. D. Keep up with. 11. What tip do experts share with poor navigators? A. Follow one’s own sense of direction. B. Use GPS as much as possible. C. Draw simple maps while walking. D. Practice observing landmarks. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了有些人总是迷路而有些人则能轻松导航的原因，研究表明，在培养方向感方面，经验比天赋起着更大的作用，同时文化背景和环境因素也有影响，并给出了提升导航能力的建议。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Research suggests that experience plays a bigger role than natural talent in developing a sense of direction. (研究表明，在培养方向感方面，经验比天赋起着更大的作用。)”以及第二段中的实验结果“This suggests good navigators develop through lived experience. (这表明优秀的导航者是通过生活经验培养出来的。)”可知，研究发现，在培养方向感方面，生活经验起决定性作用。故选D项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“A key factor is how you grew up. A 2020 virtual navigation test conducted by Queen Mary University of London on over 2,600 pairs of twins found that genetics (遗传学) explained only 30-40% of differences in navigation skills, while nonshared environmental factors accounted for 60-70%. Follow-up interviews showed these often included childhood experiences like cycling to school or family travel. This suggests good navigators develop through lived experience. (伦敦玛丽女王大学在2020年对2,600多对双胞胎进行的虚拟导航测试发现，遗传学只能解释30-40%的导航技能差异，而非共享环境因素则占60-70%。后续采访显示，这些因素通常包括骑自行车上学或家庭旅行等童年经历。这表明优秀的导航者是通过生活经验培养出来的。)”可知，作者通过引用伦敦玛丽女王大学对2,600 多对双胞胎的数据研究结果来支持自己的观点。故选C项。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“In Nordic countries, where orienteering (a sport connecting running and navigation) is popular, people tend to perform better. People in the countryside did better, on average, than people from cities. And those from cities with hard street arrangements such as those in the older parts of European cities outperform those from cities like Chicago, where the streets form a regular grid (棋盘), perhaps because people of grid cities don’t need to build such difficult mind pictures. (在北欧国家，定向越野（一项结合跑步和导航的运动）很受欢迎，人们的表现往往更好。平均而言，农村人比城市人表现得更好。那些来自街道布局复杂的城市（如欧洲城市的老城区）的人比那些来自街道呈规则网格状的城市（如芝加哥）的人outperform，这可能是因为网格城市的人不需要建立如此复杂的心智图像。)”可知，本段主要讲的是不同文化背景的人的导航能力不同，且平均而言，农村人比城市人表现得更好。”，由此可测出划线词所在句是说“街道布局复杂的城市的人比街道呈规则网格状的城市的人导航能力更好”，所以“outperform”意思是“表现得更好”。故选B项。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“To improve navigation skills, experts recommend targeted practice that strengthens both route-following and direction memory abilities. While GPS can be helpful, overusing it may weaken your natural navigation ability. Instead, observe noticeable things like buildings, bus stops, and street patterns to understand how locations connect. Doing this often helps build a clearer picture in the mind. (为了提高导航技能，专家建议进行有针对性的练习，以加强路线跟踪和方向记忆能力。虽然GPS很有用，但过度使用可能会削弱你的自然导航能力。相反，观察建筑物、公交车站和街道模式等明显的东西，以了解位置是如何连接的。这样做通常有助于在脑海中建立更清晰的图像。)”可知，专家给方向感差的人的建议是练习观察地标。故选D项。 D You forget to bring your water bottle to the airport, so you buy a plastic one and keep refilling it. Or you order takeout for dinner and save the black plastic container to pack your lunch the next day. Reuse is one of the core rules of sustainability. But should you be reusing these single-use plastics? Experts say no. Single-use plastics leach (滤出) chemicals and shed (释放) microplastics into your environment. Though studies have not directly compared single-use and reusable plastic, experts say they are more concerned about single-use plastics because of how they’re made. A single-use plastic water bottle sheds micro-and nanoplastics into your water when you refill it, and a takeout container or frozen meal tray sheds these particles into your food. Chemical exposure increases if plastic is heated, typically in a microwave, a dishwasher or even by placing hot food in a takeout container. When heat is applied, molecules move faster, meaning it could be easier for some of these particles to make its way into your food. The danger of heating your plastic also applies to reusable plastic, like baby bottles and plastic storage containers, according to Judith Enck, president of Beyond Plastics. Research found that black plastic in sushi trays, and other objects contain high levels of flame retardants (延缓剂). These poisonous chemicals have been linked to physical and mental problems. Concerns with chemicals and microplastics primarily apply to food, experts said, because you are swallowing them. Reusing single-use plastics like grocery bags is not a major concern, they added. The most important thing you should do is avoid subjecting your plastic to heat, experts agreed. “A pretty hard-and-fast rule is to never microwave plastic,” Enc k said. “And there’s also a recommendation not to put plastic into the dishwasher if it’s on a hot cycle.” If you order takeout, it’s best to transfer the food to a nonplastic dish as soon as possible, and you should use a plate when microwaving your food. 12. Why does the author list examples in the first paragraph? A. To lead in the topic. B. To prove the experts’ opinion. C. To analyse the reason. D. To introduce background information. 13. What can we learn from the research? A. Plastic bottles of good quality is encouraged to use. B. It is the chemicals in the materials that cause trouble. C. High temperature makes little difference to takeout food. D. Reusable plastic is more dangerous than single-use plastic. 14. Which situation poses the biggest threat to human’s health? A. Heating fast food in a glass bowl. B. Filling the grocery bag with meat. C. Packing cold drink with single-use plastics. D. Ordering hot soup contained in a plastic bag. 15. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Stop Using Single-use Plastics B. Reusing Single-use Plastics Is Harmful C. How to Correctly Use Single-use Plastics D. The Astonishing Fact of Single-use Plastics 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了重复使用一次性塑料用品的危害。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“You forget to bring your water bottle to the airport, so you buy a plastic one and keep refilling it. Or you order takeout for dinner and save the black plastic container to pack your lunch the next day. Reuse is one of the core rules of sustainability. But should you be reusing these single-use plastics? Experts say no. (你忘了带水瓶去机场，所以你买了一个塑料瓶，然后不断往里面加水。或者你点外卖当晚餐，然后把黑色的塑料容器留下来，第二天用来装午餐。再利用是可持续发展的核心原则之一。但是你应该重复使用这些一次性塑料吗？专家说不。)”可知，作者在第一段中举例子是为了引出本文的话题，即重复使用一次性塑料用品的危害。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Single-use plastics leach (滤出) chemicals and shed (释放) microplastics into your environment.

(当你给一次性塑料水瓶加水时，它会向水中释放微塑料和纳米塑料，外卖容器或冷冻餐盘也会将这些颗粒释放到你的食物中。)”可知，从研究中我们能了解到是材料中的化学物质引起了麻烦。故选B。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Chemical exposure increases if plastic is heated, typically in a microwave, a dishwasher or even by placing hot food in a takeout container. (如果塑料被加热，通常是在微波炉、洗碗机中，甚至是把热的食物放在外卖容器里，化学物质的暴露就会增加。)”以及第三段中“Research found that black plastic in sushi trays, and other objects contain high levels of flame retardants (延缓剂)。These poisonous chemicals have been linked to physical and mental problems. (研究发现，寿司托盘和其他物品中的黑色塑料含有高水平的阻燃剂。这些有毒化学物质与身体和精神问题有关。)”可知，用塑料袋装热汤对人体的危害最大。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段中“Reuse is one of the core rules of sustainability.

Having experienced 41. activities 42. was moved 43. but 44. to part 45. happier 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者帮助孩子的经历，让作者意识到帮助人能让自己快乐。 【36题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：当帮助别人时会让自己感到开心。分析句子可知，当主句是将来时或表示将来含义时，时间状语从句多用一般现在时。故填helps。 【37题详解】 考查固定搭配。句意：去年我加入了一个志愿者组织，它为我提供了很多帮助他人的机会。分析句子可知，provide......with.....是固定搭配意为“提供......”，符合语境。故填with。 【38题详解】 考查冠词。句意：上周日我们去了一个孤儿院，那里有大约三十个残疾儿童。分析句子可知，这里泛指“去了一个孤儿院”，因此使用不定冠词限定名词orphanage，且orphanage 是以元音音素开头的词，使用不定冠词an限定。故填an。 【39题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：上周日我们去了一个孤儿院，那里有大约三十个残疾儿童。分析句子可知，这是一个定语从句，先行词是thirty children，关系词在从句中作主语，因此使用who或者that引导定语从句。故填who或that。 【40题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：当我看到那些可爱的孩子时，我为他们感到难过。分析句子可知，句中存在谓语动词faced，这里使用非谓语动词形式，且experience动作发生在faced之前，即发生在“过去的过去”，且逻辑主语they与have之间为主动关系，因此使用现在分词的完成式作状语，位于句首首字母需大写。故填Having experienced。 【41题详解】 考查名词复数。句意：因此，我们安排了一些活动。分析句子可知，some修饰可数名词复数。故填activities。 【42题详解】 考查动词时态和语态。句意：看着他们玩得开心，我感动得热泪盈眶，意识到他们需要的不仅仅是物质上的帮助，还有别人的爱。分析句子可知，be moved意为“被感动”符合语境，且结合全文时态是一般过去时。故填was moved。 【43题详解】 考查固定搭配。句意：看着他们玩得开心，我感动得热泪盈眶，意识到他们需要的不仅仅是物质上的帮助，还有别人的爱。分析句子可知，not only......but （also）......是固定搭配意为“不仅......而且......”，符合本句语境。故填but。 【44题详解】 考查固定搭配。句意：当我们离开时，孩子们和我们志愿者都不愿意分开。分析句子可知，be unwilling to do是固定搭配意为“不愿意做......”，符合语境。故填to part。 【45题详解】 考查形容词比较级。句意：虽然和这些孩子在一起、帮助别人的时间占据了我大部分的空闲时间，但我觉得比以前更快乐，因为我能给别人带来快乐。分析句子可知，空后有than，且空处作feel的表语，因此这里使用形容词比较级形式作表语。故填happier。 【点睛】 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节(满分15分) 46. 假定你是李华，你校英语报最近在进行“The Internet and Me”的征稿，请你就自己的学习、生活经历写一篇文章投稿。内容包括： 1. 使用互联网的一次经历； 2. 真实的感受。 注意：1. 词数80左右； 2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 The Internet and Me ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 The Internet and Me Last Sunday, I was doing my English homework when I was stuck on a difficult reading passage.

So it was with Mama’s soup pot. Mama’s soup was special because there was no recipe for it. It had been so since her girlhood in Italy, where she learned its secret from her grandma, who had inherited (继承) it from generation to generation. Also, it was a symbol of security. For our large immigrant family, Mama’s soup guaranteed we would never go hungry. And we could judge our economic conditions by its contents. At one time, however, Mama’s soup pot became a source of embarrassment to me, for I feared it would cost me a new friend I had made at school. Sol was an unusual pal for me because his father was a doctor and they lived in the best part of our town. Often Sol invited me to his home for dinner, where I found the food was good but tasteless, lacking the heartiness of the one served from my mom’s flame-blackened pots. Moreover, the atmosphere matched the food and everything was so formal. Sol’s mother and father were polite, but the conversation around the table was not natural, which made me a little depressed. And no one hugged! In my family, warm hugs were a constant-men, women, boys and girls-and if you didn’t kiss your mother, she demanded: “What’s the matter? You sick?” But at that time in my life, all this was an embarrassment. I had known Sol would like to eat dinner at my house, but that was the last thing I wanted. My family was so different. No other kids had such pots on their stoves, nor did they have a mama whose first action upon seeing you enter the house was to sit you down with a spoon and bowl. One day, Sol pointedly asked if he could come to my house. I had to say yes. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式作答。 The day Sol came over I was nervous. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ But Sol quickly finished his bowl and asked for one more. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 The day Sol came over I was very nervous. Mama and the other family members welcomed him with embraces. Soon after sitting at the heavy, deeply stained table, we were instantly faced with bowls of soup. “Sol,” Mama asked, “you know what this is?” “Soup?” Sol responded. “Not soup,” Mama said emphatically. “It’s minestrone!” She then launched into a long explanation of the power of minestrone: how it cured headaches, colds. And Mama even said the soup would make Sol strong. I was so embarrassed, convinced that this would be the last time I would ever see my friend Sol. But Sol quickly finished his bowl and asked for one more. His initial hesitation gave way to genuine enjoyment. And as the evening progressed I saw him relax, his rigid posture melting away in my family’s easy atmosphere. When we were saying our good-byes, Sol confided, “You sure have a great family.” Then he added, “Boy, you are lucky!” Lucky? I wondered. Suddenly, it dawned on me that true wealth wasn’t measured in polished silver or spotless kitchens. It was found in the simple joys of family, laughter, and a steaming bowl of Mama’s minestrone soup. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索，讲述了作者的母亲做的意大利浓菜汤能够让经济条件不好的移民家庭不挨饿，但作者觉得一份水汪汪的汤暗示着艰难的时期，有一段时间妈妈的汤锅成了他尴尬的来源。作者在学校交了一个好朋友Sol，他的家虽物质条件优渥，但缺少了作者家中那种由母亲的汤所象征的爱、温暖及随意自在的家庭氛围。Sol想要去作者的家里用餐，但是因为家庭环境的不同，作者并不想他到自己家里来。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“索尔来的那天，我非常紧张。”可知，第一段可描写作者描写Sol来作者家里吃饭时，作者家人热情的款待Sol，尤其是作者的妈妈，详细的给他解释了什么意大利浓菜汤。作者因此感到非常尴尬，觉得会失去Sol这个朋友。 ②由第二段首句内容“但是索尔很快吃完了他的碗，又要了一碗。”可知，第二段可描写Sol非常喜欢妈妈的做的意大利浓菜汤，并让作者意识到真正的财富存在于简单的快乐之中，存在于母亲做的意大利浓菜汤里。 2.续写线索：答应索尔来做客——热情款待——介绍意大利浓菜汤——尴尬——索尔喜欢意大利浓菜汤以及作者家的家庭氛围——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①欢迎：welcome/greet ②询问：ask/question/inquire ③开始做某事：launch into/jump into/dive into 情绪类 ①紧张的：nervous/uneasy ②快乐：enjoyment/delight 【点睛】 【高分句型1】And as the evening progressed, I saw him relax, his rigid posture melting away in my family’s easy atmosphere (使用了as引导的时间状语从句) 【高分句型2】 Suddenly, it dawned on me that true wealth wasn’t measured in polished silver or spotless kitchens.(使用了that引导的主语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
