She had prepared lots of snacks, while my job was to have the backyard in order. There was plenty of space for the kids to run and play. There was just one thing I hadn't counted on: My brother chose to bring his dog Toby, a 50 - pound ball of fire. Though friendly, he could easily knock over my niece's small boys and my six - month - old granddaughter. So, when my brother showed up, I asked him to watch Toby and keep him outside. My plan was working out just fine. Toby was using up his energy by running back and forth in the backyard and giving the kids plenty of room. Unexpectedly, after supper, the weather changed. It started to rain and everyone went indoors. It was an awkward moment. I didn’t want Toby to be running around in the house, and my brother wasn't happy with driving home with a wet dog. Eventually, my brother decided to leave rather than force the issue. A few days passed, and I hadn't heard anything from my brother. I texted him and expressed wishes for him to come out again. His reply came as a surprise — a shock, actually: "Not a chance." Clearly, he was unhappy over the way we had parted. After all, I had left him little choice. Well, he'll get over it, I reasoned. Two months passed. My wife suggested I get in touch with my brother, but I resisted, thinking he should call first. However, my conscience(良心) kept bothering me. I tried to put myself in my brother's shoes. He was facing health issues and his wife of thirty - five years had passed away a few months earlier. Toby was his constant companion, the one who kept him going. 注意：(1) 续写词数应为150个左右；(2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I realized it was me who was at fault._________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With the biscuits my wife had made, I arrived at my brother's door._________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 主旨大意 本文围绕家庭聚会展开，因兄弟带狗参加聚会,在天气变化后，狗的安置问题导 致兄弟间产生矛盾。之后主角经过反思，认识到自己的错误,带着诚意准备去和兄弟和解，体现了家庭关系中理解、反思与和解的重要性。 续写预测 1."I realized it was me who was at fault." Deeply describe the protagonist's inner reflections on his mistakes, such as recalling his attitude toward his brother during the gathering and thinking about where he ignored his brother's feelings. Then it may describe how the protagonist decides to take action to make amends, such as preparing words of apology, etc. 2. “With the biscuits my wife had made, I arrived at my brother's door.” Describe the protagonist's feelings when arriving at his brother's door, such as nervousness or expectation. Then write about the brother's reaction when opening the door, possibly surprise, indifference, or being moved. Finally, the two resolve the conflict and reconcile through communication. One possible version: I realized it was me who was at fault. My brother had been going through tough times, yet I was so thoughtless about his feelings that rainy day. Toby wasn't just a pet; he was my brother's rock. How could I have forced him to leave his dog out in the rain? The more I reflected, the heavier my guilt grew. I knew I had to make things right—S0 I turned to my wife for advice. She offered to bake a batch of biscuits, hoping these small, warm gestures could start to mend what I'd broken. With the biscuits my wife had made, I arrived at my brother's door. My heart raced as I knocked, worried he'd turn me away. When he finally opened the door, surprise flashed in his eyes. “I'm sorry,” I blurted out, holding out the biscuits. “For being so hard on you that day. Toby is family too, and I should've known better.” My brother sighed, then pulled me into a hug. Inside, Toby greeted me with a wagging tail. As we chatted over the biscuits, laughter slowly filled the room, bridging the gap between us. Passage 1 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 【2025全国II卷】“What is your name? ” is a question most frequently asked when people meet for the first time. But for me, it was the first challenge I encountered as an international student in Ireland. The pronunciation system of the Chinese language is quite different from that of English. For native speakers of English, some Chinese words are rather difficult to pronounce. My given name Qiuyu(秋雨), for instance, happened to be a great challenge for many of them. Every time I gave a self-introduction, I had to explain how to pronounce my name at least five times, yet they still could not say it the way I did. Once in a lecture, the professor tried repeating my name after me over and over in front of thirty classmates. I really did not know whether I should continue correcting him or simply drop the matter. I feared that my classmates might grow tired of my efforts or even lose patience with me. After all, I did care about how others would think of me. I realized that if I didn't stop, the entire lecture would be ruined. “It's okay, professor,” I shrugged(耸肩). The awkward moment ended with the class erupting into laughter. I forced a smile, unsure how to respond further. After that incident, I stopped acting as a “Chinese teacher. ” Instead of correcting others when they were struggling to pronounce my name, I just smiled and nodded approvingly. This approach spared me the discomfort of having to over-explain. However, I soon found that by doing so, I might be losing something more important: the opportunity to share a small part of my cultural identity. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 In a class discussion, I was invited to explain the meaning of my name. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Many of my classmates got interested and came up to me after class. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 主旨大意 本文以身为国际学生的“我”在爱尔兰的经历展开，围绕名字发音这一日常事件，展现了文化差异带来的困扰以及“我”在面对这种情况时从逃避到重新找回文化认同并积极分享的转变过程，体现了在跨文化交流中保持文化自信、积极传播本土文化的重要性。 续写预测 1. In a class discussion, I was invited to explain the meaning of my name. → The psychological activities when “I” was invited → “I” vividly explained the meaning of the name “Qiuyu” to classmates-combined with Chinese culture 2. Many of my classmates got interested and came up to me after class. → They surrounded me: I patiently answered their various questions about Chinese culture. → Through communication, we enhanced mutual understanding of different cultures. → I felt a sense of achievement from actively sharing culture, which deepened the positive impact brought by cultural exchange. One possible version: In a class discussion, I was invited to explain the meaning of my name. Standing before the class, T took a deep breath and began, “‘Qiu’ means autumn in Chinese, a season of golden wheat fields and red maple leaves, symbolizing harvest and poetic beauty. Yu' refers to rain--gentle drops that nurture life.” As I spoke, images of misty autumn mornings in my hometown flashed through my mind. “Together, they paint a scene of autumn rain whispering through falling leaves.” The classroom fell silent, my classmates' eyes sparkling with curiosity. The professor nodded warmly and said, “What a beautiful image your name evokes!” Many of my classmates got interested and came up to me after class. “Can you tell me more about Chinese names?” one girl asked. A boy smiled and added, “I tried pronouncing Qiuyu' correctly after sour explanation--it feels more meaningful now.” I shared how Chinese names often carry parental expectations or cultural references, and even wrote my classmates' names in Chinese characters on the blackboard. Laughter filled every corner of the classroom. That day, I realized my name was never a barrier but a bridge. Now, whenever someone mispronounces “Qiuyu”, I no longer hesitate; instead, I smile and say, “Let me tell you the story behind it.” Passage 2 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 【2025年1月浙江卷】Kevin was pretty bored. His mother was at work, and his father had been away on business. Therefore, he was left in the care of Mrs. Hill, an old lady who lived next door. His parents had raised the 12-year-old to be a good boy. He never got into trouble, though sometimes he wanted to do risky things. Mrs. Hill was asleep. Kevin sighed(叹息) and hoped something exciting would happen. Suddenly, a movement outside caught his eye. Mrs. Hill’s front window faced Mr. and Mrs. Green’s house across the street. The couple had both gone to work, so it was strange that someone was over there. Kevin stared at the man at their front door. Suddenly, the man jumped through an open window into the house. With his heart in his mouth, Kevin grabbed Mrs. Hill’s home phone and called the police. Thinking that the man might get away with whatever he wanted before the police arrived, Kevin decided to do something. He rushed out of Mrs. Hill’s house and crossed the street quickly. Grabbing a branch from a cut-down tree, he jumped in through the window. “Stop right there! You must leave right now!” he called out, holding the branch with both hands. The man froze for a second, but when he saw the skinny boy he breathed a sigh of relief. “Hey, kid, put that down. It was my home. My parents used to live here and my father’s watch was here,” he explained, trying to lift a floorboard. At that moment, the sounds of a police car echoed(回响) in the air. The man stood up in a panic, then ran through the house toward the window and jumped out. Kevin followed out and told the arriving police officers what had happened. They pursued and arrested the man. Kevin went back to Mrs. Hill’s house. Somehow he wasn’t sure he had done the right thing. “What if he has told the truth?” he thought to himself. The man’s words sounded pretty convincing. 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。 Paragraph 1: When Mr. and Mrs. Green got home, Kevin went to talk to them. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Kevin and Mr. Green took the watch they had found to the police station. ____________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 主旨大意 本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了高中生Eva因为方向感不强，没有办法记住高中学校的路，在一次体育课上教练要求他们沿着校园跑步的时候Eva发现跟着树的影子能找到方向，她通过这个方法重新认识了校园。 续写预测 1. Eva found her direction by following the tree's shadow and was praised by her coach. 2. Eva remembered the school building by the method of remembering shadows and gained insights after this incident. 读后续写 One possible version: When Mr. and Mrs. Green got home, Kevin went to talk to them. He explained everything, from the man jumping through the window to the police arresting him. The Greens listened carefully, with a doubtful expression on their faces. Kevin then described how the man had been trying to move the floorboard. "He claimed his father's watch was hidden beneath it," he added. Mrs. Green looked surprised." Let's go check," she said. It took a little while, but Mr. Green managed to lift the board. To everyone's astonishment, there it was- an old watch, just as the man had described. Kevin and Mr. Green took the watch they had found to the police station. The officer confirmed it matched the man's description. “We'll need to investigate further, but it looks like his story checks out,” he said. Kevin felt a wave of relief wash over him. The officer thanked them for their help and promised to keep them updated. As they left the station, Kevin looked at Mr. Green and said, “I guess I did the right thing after all” Mr. Green patted him on the shoulder with a smile, saying, “You did more than just right, Kevin. You were brave.” Passage 1 (山东省泰安肥城市2025-2026学年高三上学期开学学情诊断英语试题)I liked living in a mess. The desk, which should have been clear for my homework, was always filled with empty milk bottles, old magazines, and Post-it notes. My floor seemed to swallow anything that entered my room. Mom always insisted that I clean my room. I’d respond with a nod, but never actually did it. She ended up having to tidy up herself. But no matter how much she cleaned, I always seemed to turn it into a mess again within days. One weekend afternoon, I was lying in bed, lost in a book while my room was a total mess. Clothes were piled on the chair, snack wrappers littered the floor, and the desk was entirely hidden beneath my school books. I was comfortably immersed in(沉浸在) my chaos — until the phone rang. It was my best friend Felix. “Hey! How about playing chess together?” “Good idea! Just come over!” I replied, picturing us laughing and enjoying each other’s company. However, as soon as I hung up the phone, reality hit me like a ton of bricks: my room was an absolute disaster! I didn’t want my friend to see my room like this. My mind raced — should I call Felix back and tell him I am too busy? Wouldn’t it be better to spare him from the horror of stepping into my disaster zone? But I felt so guilty at the thought of lying to my best friend just because it looked as if a tornado had hit my room. I decided to tidy up my room. With only half an hour before Felix arrived, I felt the pressure increasing. I thought about asking someone for help, so I stepped out of my room. I found my brother playing video games and my dad working. Only Mom seemed to have a moment to spare. When I approached her with my request, she turned me down. “You can handle it on your own. Just learn to be independent,” she said gently. 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。 I knew there was no way out this time. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Just as I finished cleaning, I heard a knock on the door. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Paragraph 1: I knew there was no way out this time. So I walked back to my room. The chaos around me weighed heavily on my mind. Each item reminded me of the work I had to do. Time was running out, and I knew I had to get it together and take action. I picked up the clothes from the chair and put them into the laundry basket. Then I threw the snack wrappers into the trash can and piled my schoolwork. I wiped the dust off the desk. It felt good to see some progress. Paragraph 2: Just as I finished cleaning, I heard a knock on the door. It was Felix. After greeting my family, he walked into my room with me. As he stepped inside, he was surprised at how tidy it looked. Embarrassment washed over me as I explained that my room had been a total mess before this clean-up. I finally decided to take charge of the chaos. Felix remarked on how impressive it was to see me managing my space, admiring my newfound independence. A strong feeling of pride welled inside me. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述“我”喜欢生活在杂乱的环境中，妈妈多次要求“我”打扫房间，“我”都没有行动。一个周末下午，“我”正在杂乱的房间里看书，朋友Felix打电话要来下象棋，“我”不想让朋友看到房间的混乱，决定打扫，向妈妈求助被拒，只能自己动手。 【详解】 1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我知道这次无路可退了”可知，第一段可描述“我”看到杂乱环境的感受，以及具体描述打扫的动作和过程，如收拾衣服、清理垃圾、整理书本等。 ②由第二段首句内容“我刚打扫完，就听到了敲门声”可知，第二段可描写Felix到来后的情景，他看到整洁房间的反应，“我”的解释，以及他对“我”的评价，“我”的感受等。 2.续写线索：决定自己打扫——具体打扫行为——Felix 到来——他看到房间后的反应——“我” 的解释——他的评价——“我”的感受。 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①决定：decide /determine ②欣赏：admire/ appreciate ③解释：explain /account for 情绪类 ①惊讶的：surprised /astonished ②尴尬：embarrassment/awkwardness 【点睛】 【高分句型 1】Each item reminded me of the work I had to do.(运用了省略关系代词that的定语从句，修饰先行词the work) 【高分句型 2】Embarrassment washed over me as I explained that my room had been a total mess before this clean-up.(运用了as引导的时间状语从句，以及that引导的宾语从句) Passage 2 (2026届福建省福州市高三上学期第一次质量检测英语试题) An Unexpected Angel In the extreme heat, I watched an elderly woman struggle with bags of groceries. Slowing down, I opened the window and called out, “Need a ride?” I helped her into the passenger seat, and we were off. She directed me to go farther south. Suddenly, I realized we were on the “wrong side of town.” It was starting to get dark, and I began to feel uneasy. We continued down unfamiliar streets until she finally pointed to an old apartment building. The street was dirty and the air was smelly. Several young men gathered around the entrance. They appeared threatening. Some were on motorcycles, and one boy with bushy, long hair was staring at me intently(目不转睛地) — too intently — and smiling. I was getting more and more uncomfortable. I stopped the car. A couple of the guys helped with the groceries. The old lady thanked me, and I drove away as fast as I could. I was driving when I was interrupted by a motorcycle behind me. It was that boy who kept smiling at me with a strange look! In a panic, I slowed down, hoping he would pass me. But he continued to drive at the same speed as me. I realized he was waving for me to stop. No way was I going to stop for a stranger on an unfamiliar street. I tried to speed away, but it didn’t stop him. He raced after me again. Getting increasingly anxious, I reached down in the passenger seat to get my cell phone. I had to call 911. With my eyes on the road, one hand on the wheel and the other hand searching on the seat next to me, I found a phone. But it wasn’t mine. “Oh no, the lady took my phone by mistake!” Meanwhile, the guy on the bike stayed close to me. 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。 I saw the boy waving something. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I felt guilty and wanted to reward the boy. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: I saw the boy waving something. Squinting through the rearview mirror, I realized it was my cell phone — its familiar case glinting in the dim streetlight. My heart skipped a beat, and I slowly pulled over, still on edge. He stopped his motorcycle beside me, holding out the phone with a gentle smile. “The old lady left this in my apartment building,” he said softly. “I saw it was yours and rushed to catch up. Didn’t mean to scare you.” His words melted my panic, and I felt a rush of embarrassment for judging him so quickly. I felt guilty and wanted to reward the boy. I fumbled in my wallet, but he shook his head firmly. “No need, ma’am. I just didn’t want you to worry about your phone.” His kindness made my cheeks burn. Instead, I asked for his name — Liam — and told him I’d bring him a homemade meal the next day. The next afternoon, I dropped off a plate of lasagna at his apartment. He thanked me with a big grin, and we chatted for a few minutes. That day, I learned never to judge someone by their appearance; sometimes, angels wear leather jackets and ride motorcycles. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，文章讲述作者在炎热天气载了一位老年妇女，因去了陌生街区且遇到看似有威胁的年轻人而不安，离开后被其中一男孩骑摩托追赶，作者恐慌时发现手机被妇女错拿，后男孩归还手机，作者愧疚并想报答，也明白不能以貌取人。 【详解】 1. 段落续写： ①由第一段内容“我看见那个男孩正挥舞着什么东西。”可知，第一段可描写男孩挥舞着作者的手机追赶，停车后解释是老奶奶遗落让他归还，作者既安心又愧疚。 ②由第二段首句内容“我心怀愧疚，想报答这个男孩。”可知，第二段可描写作者愧疚想报答男孩遭拒，得知其名后送家常千层面，聊天中领悟不可以貌取人，平凡外表下或藏善意。 2. 续写线索：男孩追赶——男孩解释——作者既安心又愧疚——想报答男孩遭拒——聊天——感悟 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①意识到：realize/be aware that ②停车：pull over/pull up ③担心：worry about/be concerned about 情绪类 ①恐慌：panic/fear/terror ②尴尬：embarrassment/awkwardness 【点睛】 【高分句型1】He stopped his motorcycle beside me, holding out the phone with a gentle smile.

A warm feeling spread from her fingertips to her chest as she touched the strings — a connection that grew stronger each year. Now sixteen, her room showed her passion: bright guitar posters covered the walls, a jar of colorful picks sat on her desk, and a well-used songbook with quick notes lay beside her bed. She practiced every day, slipping out after dinner to go to guitar classes downtown. Those evenings, learning to make melodies felt like real freedom. Her father, Mr. Thompson, a careful engineer who liked order, saw her love of guitar as a distraction. “Engineering equations(方程) don’t care about guitar solos,” he’d say sharply, his brow wrinkling as he shut her bedroom door while she was practicing. Every Thursday, he checked her report card with a ruler in hand, tapping hard on her weak math part until she pulled back. “A 72 in algebra won’t get you into MIT,” he’d say coldly, ignoring her trying to explain that equations confused her. Emma tried hard to balance both. She’d wake up at 5 a.m. to study trigonometry(三角学) by lamp light before school, and then hurry to the music room at lunch to practice. While her guitar skills got better, math stayed hard. Her music teacher, Mr Lee, seeing her talent, secretly put her in the city “Young Musicians” contest. Last Friday, she stepped on stage and played a song she’d written about her conflicting interests. When named winner, she hugged her guitar, the gold trophy(奖杯) shining. Smiling widely, she ran home to show the trophy before dealing with her math test. But her father waited in the hallway, jaw tight, her wrinkled test in his hand. The red 68 written on top seemed to glow like a warning. 注意： 1.写作词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Emma froze, her excitement disappearing in an instant. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ That night, Emma’s persistence seemed to move her father. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Emma froze, her excitement disappearing in an instant. The trophy in her hand felt heavy as lead. “What’s this?” her father asked, holding the crumpled test paper, his voice low with anger. She tried to speak, and then held out the trophy, fingers shaking. “I won the guitar contest,” she whispered. He glanced at the trophy, then back at the paper. “Wasting time on a contest instead of studying?” he shouted, his face turning red. Emma was frightened, stepping back. “I tried, Dad, but I really like playing the guitar, and Ms. Lee said that I have a talent for music.” she said, tears rolling down her cheeks. That night, Emma’s persistence seemed to move her father. As she neared sleep, a soft knock came. “Can I come in?” he asked, his voice much softer. Emma opened the door. “I’m sorry I shouted. I want what’s best for you,” he said, sitting on the edge of the bed. Emma looked surprised. “Guitar makes me happy. I’ll work on math, but don’t make me stop,” she begged. Staring at the trophy on the desk and hesitant for a few seconds, he sighed. “We’ll find a balance. I’ll help with math if you try your hardest,” he replied. Emma hugged him. “Thank you, Dad.” For the first time, she felt all would go well. 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述了16岁女孩艾玛热爱吉他，房间布置充满吉他元素且每天坚持练习，然而她身为工程师的父亲却认为吉他分散精力，更关注她的数学成绩，希望她能进入麻省理工学院。艾玛努力平衡两者，虽吉他技能提升但数学依旧困难。音乐老师李老师暗中推荐她参加城市“青年音乐家”比赛，艾玛凭借自创歌曲获奖，然而当她带着奖杯回家时，父亲却拿着她68分的皱巴巴的数学试卷，表情严肃。 【详解】 1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“艾玛僵住了，兴奋瞬间消失得无影无踪。”可知，第一段可描写爸爸责备艾玛浪费时间比赛不努力学习以及艾玛的感受。 ②由第二段首句内容“那天晚上，艾玛的坚持似乎打动了父亲。”可知，第二段可描写爸爸和艾玛深入交流后，答应帮助艾玛，艾玛也承诺努力学习数学。 2.续写线索：感到愤怒——责备艾玛——艾玛回应爸爸——深入交流——承诺努力学习——答应帮忙 3词汇激活 行为类 ①尝试做某事：try to do sth./attempt to do sth. ②喜欢：like/be fond of ③帮助：help/assist ④拥抱：hug/embrace 情绪类 ①害怕的：frightened/scared ②惊讶的：surprised/astonished 【点睛】 [高分句型1]I tried, Dad, but I really like playing the guitar, and Ms. Lee said that I have a talent for music.(运用了that引导宾语从句) [高分句型2]Staring at the trophy on the desk and hesitant for a few seconds, he sighed.(运用了现在分词短语作状语) Passage 4 (2026届黑龙江省大庆市高三上学期一模英语试题)C, a disappointing C, right at the top of the mid-term paper. Cs are absolutely unacceptable for me, because I won’t be salutatorian(致辞学生) with a C. From first grade to high school, I had never made a C. In fact, only a handful of Bs had ever got into the mix of As on my report card. But I had hit a trouble in high school — geometry(几何). I truly couldn’t “see” how those little triangles and squares fit together. Friends tried to help me and I spent hours every night, going over problems with other honor students. And then a mid-term came and I made another C. Until the year I took geometry, I was in the running to be salutatorian to represent all the students to deliver the graduation speech. According to my mother, she had been pre-elected as her class salutatorian. Then, because of pneumonia (肺炎) and several weeks of missed classes, her grades fell. Though she didn’t put much pressure on me, I was determined to realize that dream for her. After getting the C in geometry, I studied like I had never studied before. The last hope to raise my grade was the final exam. I would have to make an A in order to raise my overall average to a B. It was a long shot, but it was all I had left. I’ll never forget taking that final exam. My hands were sweaty. I worked and reworked every problem. When I finally finished my paper, I believed that it was the best I could do. After school, I rushed to my geometry teacher’s office. She had already graded the papers. I made a B — a strong, solid B. It was not enough to change my average. I would get a C in geometry on my report card and that was final. I was heartbroken because I knew not only would I lose salutatorian spot but also I had lost my last chance to realize my mother’s dream. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The geometry teacher sensed my depression and offered to let me stay. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After a long silence, the teacher said firmly, “Then you should be proud.” _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 The geometry teacher sensed my depression and offered to let me stay. She pulled out my final exam paper from the stack and pointed to the problems I had solved correctly. “Look at these,” she said gently, “You didn’t just guess. You showed clear thinking in every step. I’ve seen how hard you’ve worked — staying after class, asking thoughtful questions, practicing even when it was frustrating. That effort matters more than a single letter grade.” Her words made my eyes water. I had been so focused on the C that I forgot to see how far I’d come. After a long silence, the teacher said firmly, “Then you should be proud.” She leaned forward, her voice warm but serious. “Salutatorian is an honor, but it doesn’t define you. What defines you is that you didn’t give up when things got hard. You faced a subject that challenged you and fought for every point.

The smell of sizzling patties and crispy fries lingered(弥漫) in the air, and the place was packed with folks rushing to grab a quick meal. I’d just gotten off a long morning at work, and my stomach was empty as I finally reached the front of the line and got my order-a burger, fries, and a cold drink. As I set the tray(托盘) down on a small table by the window, I glanced over and saw two firefighters in the corner. Their uniforms were heavy with faint spots, like they’d just stepped away from a smoky scene, and their boots still held a hint of damp from the morning dew. They stood in the back of the line, shoulders relaxed but eyes tired. I was just about to pick up my burger-the cheese melted perfectly-when a loud, sharp siren(警报) cut through the noise of the restaurant. The two firefighters froze for half a second, and then moved. No hesitation, no exchange of words — just muscle memory. One grabbed his helmet off the nearby counter, the other adjusted his radio on his shoulder, and they turned toward the door, their steps quickening. I watched them go, and my fork paused mid-air. My empty stomach served as a quiet reminder of how long I’d waited for this meal. I’d stood in that line for 15 minutes, my feet aching from the morning’s work. Giving them my lunch meant I would have to wait again-maybe another line, maybe my break slipping away faster. I bit my lip, staring at the tray. Then I thought of their uniforms, the spots, the way they’d act upon hearing the siren like it was a call they couldn’t ignore. They didn’t get to pause for a meal when emergencies hit. They’d probably go hours without eating, running from one call to the next. 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。 My hesitation melted away. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I went back to the counter, only to find the manager was waiting for me. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 My hesitation melted away. I grabbed the tray and hurried after the two firefighters, calling out softly, “Excuse me!” They paused at the door, turning with slight surprise. I held out the tray, smiling, “You guys must be in a rush — take this. It’s not much, but it’ll keep you going.” One of them hesitated for a second, then nodded gratefully, taking the tray. “Thank you, really,” he said, before they rushed out into the street, the siren growing louder as they went. I stood there for a moment, my stomach still growling, but my chest felt light. I went back to the counter, only to find the manager was waiting for me. He smiled warmly, holding up a new tray with a burger, fries, and a drink. “Saw what you did for the firefighters,” he said, handing it over. “This one’s on the house. We need more people like you.” I was shocked, then grateful, taking the tray. “Thank you so much,” I replied. As I sat back down by the window, biting into the burger, the taste felt sweeter than before. Sometimes, giving up a small thing didn’t just help others — it filled your own heart, too. 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述市中心快餐店午间繁忙，作者下班后买了午餐，看到两位刚可能出完任务、面露疲惫的消防员排队。警报响起，消防员立刻行动，作者虽不舍排队换来的午餐，但想到他们应急时难以吃饭，内心纠结。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①根据第一段首句“我的犹豫消失了。”可知，下文可描写作者追上两名消防员并把自己的食物拿给他们，消防员表示感谢，作者虽然饿着，但心情舒畅。 ②根据第二段首句“我回到柜台，却发现经理正在等我。”可知，接下来可描写经理被作者的行为感动，为作者准备好了餐食，以及作者的感悟。 2.续写线索：犹豫消失——追上消防员——递上食物——消防员感激——作者心情舒畅——老板等着作者——递给作者准备好的食物——解释原因——作者感悟 3.词类激活 行为类 ①抓住：grab/get hold of ②看见：see/notice ③回答：reply/respond 情绪类 ①感激地：gratefully/with gratitude ②心情舒畅的：feel light/feel lighthearted 【点睛】 【高分句型1】They paused at the door, turning with slight surprise.(运用了现在分词作状语) 【高分句型2】I stood there for a moment, my stomach still growling, but my chest felt light.(运用了独立主格结构) 【高分句型3】As I sat back down by the window, biting into the burger, the taste felt sweeter than before.(运用了as引导的时间状语从句) Passage 6 (安徽省蚌埠市2025-2026学年高三上学期开学考试英语试卷) Renting a Son for New Year Snow fell softly as Mike walked down the quiet street. Only his footsteps and distant holiday sounds broke the silence. It was Christmas Eve. His small apartment, usually comfortable, felt empty — no family to call. His parents had died long ago, leaving only old photos to remember them by. Then he saw a note on a shop window: “Looking for a kind young man to share Christmas Eve. Two old people.” A warm feeling touched his heart. He called the number slowly, fingers pausing before dialing. Before he finished knocking, a door opened. An old lady with white hair like snow pulled him in, saying, “You’re cold.” Her grasp was firm but gentle. The house smelled of cookies, a sweet scent that made him think of childhood. She held his arm, as if making sure he was real, not a dream. In the guest room, a photo caught his eye: a 20-year-old with a bright smile. The quiet old man spoke low: “That’s our son, Tom. He was a fireman. Three years back, a big fire — he saved a girl but didn’t come out.” Silence filled the air. The lady called them to the kitchen. She made dough(面团); he added chocolate pieces. The old man watched, smiling, as if this was his best gift. She talked of Tom’s first bike he rode it into a bush and funny stories that still made her laugh. He listened, asking about Tom’s favorite films and hobbies, feeling like they could have been friends. They lit small lights, ate warm cookies, watched a film about a family’s holiday adventures, and laughed till she looked tired. Next morning, sun came through the curtains and woke him. Downstairs, the old man tried to give him money. Mike refused, shaking his head: “I don’t need this.” “Your wife is ill?” Mike asked, seeing her pale in a chair by the window. The man sighed. “She has cancer, not long to live. She dreamed of spending time with Tom again, like we did every year … but he’s gone,” his voice sad.

Memories of his own lonely holidays flooded in — no warmth, no laughter, just empty rooms. He thought of how much he’d missed having family, and how the couple must ache for their son. It suddenly occurred to him how much family company matters to everyone. Immediately he went over to the lady with the old man and said softly, “I’m glad I came. Thank you for your warm reception and company”. As he left, he promised, “I’ll be back.” Paragraph 2 As the first snowflakes of winter danced from the sky the next year, Mike found himself standing before the old couple’s villa again. Through the window, he saw the old man pacing, glancing at the door now and then. The moment he raised his hand to knock, the door flew open. “You kept your word!” the man said, smiling. Inside, they sat by the fire, chatting happily and the room filled with the kind of warmth he’d long desired. From then on, he visited often, bringing warmth to their home. For them all, they were no longer strangers but families. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了圣诞夜，孤身的迈克看到老人“寻找年轻人共度圣诞”的告示后前往。他得知老人的消防员儿子汤姆已牺牲，妻子身患癌症。迈克陪老人做饼干、聊天，拒绝报酬并承诺返回。此后他常去探望，原本陌生的三人因陪伴成为家人，也让迈克感受到了渴望已久的家庭温暖。 【详解】 1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“老人颤抖的话语伤了他的心，迈克站在原地，既震惊又悲伤。”可知，第一段可描写迈克的心理状态以及临走时向老人保证会回来。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二年，当冬天的第一片雪花从天空翩翩起舞时，迈克发现自己又站在了那对老夫妇的别墅前。”可知，第二段可描写迈克再次拜访老人以及到后来的经常拜访。 2.续写线索：迈克震惊又悲伤——迈克的心理状态变化——临走时向老人保证会回来——迈克再次拜访老人——后来的经常拜访——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①渴望：ache for /long for ②.保证：promised/ guaranteed ③.走过去：went over / walked up to 情绪类 ①.高兴的：glad /delightful ②.感谢：thank /be grateful to 【点睛】 【高分句型1】It suddenly occurred to him how much family company matters to everyone.(运用了It occurred to sb…的固定句型。) 【高分句型2】 From then on, he visited often, bringing warmth to their home.(运用了非谓语动词中的现在分词作状语。) Passage 7 (安徽皖江名校联盟2025-2026学年高三上学期9月开学考试英语试题)As a child, I lived in a working class area on the west side of Wichita. There was a bridge over the river half a block away from where I lived, and on the other side, there was Calvin’s Hamburger Haven. It was one of those old small restaurants converted from a trailer(拖车) — just a counter and the grill behind, where Mr Calvin worked. Mr Calvin was a thin, quiet man. He wasn’t very talkative, but, unlike many business owners in those days, he didn’t seem to mind kids hanging around and looking at the envelopes of stamps on the walls. The stamps fascinated me. I had my father’s stamp album (he’d died when I was less than one year old), but had never thought about being a collector myself. When I asked about them, Mr Calvin took time to tell me about the different kinds, the tools of collecting and so on. He was a collector himself, and, with his advice and information, I also became one. One day he asked if I wanted to go to a meeting of his stamp club. The second day, my mother dropped me off at Mr Calvin’s house, a big old Victorian house. I was the only child there, and that was the first time I had the feeling that the other men — mostly middle-aged and wealthy, and now I know that some were locally outstanding — were annoyed a kid was there. He let me care for myself, sure enough that I could. And very quickly, I found myself in conversations about stamps, being shown specialized collections and being given serious advice. That I could so easily fit in with a group like that was amazing to me — and it was the beginning of the understanding that I didn’t have to remain in the world I lived in. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Years later, I took my grade-school children on a walking tour of the area where I’d lived. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Tears rolled down my face for Mr Calvin’s death. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Years later, I took my grade-school children on a walking tour of the area where I’d lived. As we approached, vivid memories flooded back. I pointed out the quaint restaurant, sharing heartwarming stories of Mr. Calvin and his beloved stamps. Inside, little had changed; the counter, grill, and stamp-filled envelopes still adorned the walls. With pride, I introduced my kids to the man who had sparked my lifelong collecting passion. They listened intently, eyes wide with wonder, as I recounted my cherished childhood experiences. Tears rolled down my face for Mr Calvin’s death. He was not just a business owner; he was a cherished mentor and friend. His kindness and generosity had opened a whole new world for me, filled with the endless wonders of stamp collecting. He taught me that life was so much bigger than my immediate surroundings, encouraging me to explore and appreciate the vastness of the world. As I wiped my tears, I knew his memory would forever inspire me to pursue my dreams with the same enthusiasm and curiosity he had once ignited within me. 【导语】本文以作者童年经历为线索，讲述了作者因Calvin先生而爱上集邮，并在其鼓励下拓宽视野、追求梦想的故事。多年后，作者带着孩子重返Calvin的汉堡店，回忆往昔。 【详解】 1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句“多年以后，我带着我上小学的孩子们去Calvin的汉堡天堂进行了一次怀旧的徒步旅行。”可知，第一段将描述作者带着孩子重返汉堡店，回忆与Calvin先生的往事，以及孩子们对集邮产生兴趣。 ②由第二段首句“听到Calvin去世的消息，我感到眼泪从脸上滚落下来。”可知，第二段将表达作者对Calvin先生去世的悲痛，以及他对自己人生的深远影响。 2.续写线索：重返汉堡店——回忆往事——得知Calvin去世的消息——悲痛与怀念——Calvin对作者的影响 3.词汇激活：行为类： ①靠近：approach/get close to ②激发：spark/ignite/kindle ③讲述：recount/narrate/tell 情绪类： ①感人的：heartwarming/affecting ②专心地：intently/attentively 【点睛】 [高分句型1]As we approached, vivid memories flooded back.(运用了从属连词as引导时间状语从句) [高分句型2]With pride, I introduced my kids to the man who had sparked my lifelong collecting passion.(运用了关系代词who引导限制性定语从句) Passage 8 (福建省漳州市2025-2026学年高三上学期第一次教学质量检测英语试题)Seven-year-old Olly wished he could turn invisible whenever he liked. When his sister Lily was born, that wish unexpectedly came true, but it wasn’t as fun as he had imagined. Lily had arrived a month earlier than she was supposed to be and needed to stay in an incubator(保育箱) at the hospital. Mum and Dad spent most of their time with her. Even after she came home, their attention remained fixed on the tiny newborn. One day, Olly asked Mum to teach him to swim. He hoped it would be a way to reconnect. But Mum, focused on caring for Lily, suggested he ask Dad instead. Upstairs, Dad bent over his laptop, typing. When Olly asked, he replied without looking up-he had too much work to catch up on. Angry, Olly stamped downstairs. Being a big brother was the worst thing in the world. Bored, he stepped outside the house, though he knew his parents wouldn’t allow him to do so on his own. “Whatever! No one cares.” he thought, sad and lonely, “Olly the Invisible, that’s me.” He wandered down the street until he came to the house of Mrs. Cooper, his teacher. “Olly?” Mrs. Cooper called out from her garden. “Are you on your own? Your mum will be worried!” “No, she won’t. She’s too busy with Lily.” he whispered, “They don’t want me anymore.” “You don’t really mean that. Come and wait in my house while I rang your dad.” Olly obediently followed her into her house. He looked around the house as Mrs. Cooper turned away and spoke into the phone in a low voice. Olly knew what that meant. He had turned invisible again. “Your dad is coming straight away.” Mrs. Cooper told Olly when she had finished on the phone. Olly kept silent in sorrow. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Mrs. Cooper knew he needed some comfort. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mrs. Cooper stood up to open the door. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Mrs. Cooper knew he needed some comfort. She sat down beside Olly and gently put her arm around him. “You know, having a new baby in the family can be a big change,” she said softly. “Your parents still love you very much. They’re just a bit overwhelmed right now with taking care of Lily. But you’re an important part of their lives, too. You’re special, Olly, and being a big brother is a wonderful thing.” Olly listened, his eyes fixed on the floor. Slowly, he began to feel a little better. Mrs. Cooper stood up to open the door. Olly’s dad rushed in, looking worried. When he saw Olly, he let out a sigh of relief. “Olly, I’m so sorry. I didn’t realize you felt this way,” Dad said, his voice full of regret. “We love you more than anything. Let’s go home and we’ll spend some special time together, just the two of us.” Olly smiled for the first time that day. As they walked out hand in hand, Olly knew that he wasn’t invisible anymore. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了小男孩Olly因为家中有了一个小妹妹而心理上有所落差，感到孤独，得到了Cooper太太的宽慰从而有所缓解的故事。 【详解】 1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Cooper太太知道他需要安慰。”以及第二段首句内容“Cooper太太起身去开门。”可知，第一段可描写Cooper太太安慰Olly说父母很爱他，而Olly心中也感到好多了。此时传来了敲门声。 ②由第二段首句内容“Cooper太太起身去开门。”可知，第二段可描写Olly的爸爸跑了进来，表达了对Olly的爱。 2.续写线索：Cooper太太坐下来，搂住了Olly开始安慰他，她告诉Olly父母很爱他——可是新生儿的出生让父母照顾不暇，所以忽略了他——听到这些，Olly感到好受多了——此时，传来了敲门声——Cooper太太打开门，原来Olly的爸爸找来了——他表达了对Olly的关心和爱，而Olly也明白了父母的爱，他知道了，以后自己不会隐身了 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①照顾：take care of/look after ②专注于：fix on/ focus on ③开始：begin/start 情绪类 ①美好的：wonderful/ amazing ②担忧的：worried/concerned 【点睛】 【高分句型1】When he saw Olly, he let out a sigh of relief.(运用了when引导的状语从句) 【高分句型2】As they walked out hand in hand, Olly knew that he wasn’t invisible anymore.(运用了as引导的状语从句和that引导的宾语从句) Passage 9 (贵州省贵阳市2025-2026学年高三上学期8月摸底考试英语试题)I intentionally walked in front of an oncoming car — to avoid a pigeon. As the car came to a sudden stop just a few feet away, I panicked, realizing I almost got killed. “What’s wrong with you?” the driver yelled, cursing angrily. “Do you want to die?” I knew what was wrong with me. I had a lifelong fear of birds. My mother claimed that, when I was an infant, I started to cry if a bird flew past my baby carriage. During my childhood, I dashed away from bird cages in pet stores. The sound of birds singing outside left me shaking. Well-meaning friends of my parents tried to break my extreme fear by taking their talkative bird from its cage and letting it fly around me. They asked me to allow the bird to stay on my arm for one second, two seconds and more to get rid of my fear. However, I’d run away from the room screaming, convinced that their noisy parrot would peck out my eyes. When I watched Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds on television, I knew my fear was reasonable. In the plot, ordinary birds tore open roofs and violently attacked people. I always knew that birds would rise up against humanity someday. One day, while I and my daughter were in the park, she noticed a small sparrow struggling to fly. Instead of running away, she gently picked it up and held it gently in her hands. She spoke softly to it, and after a few minutes, the bird regained its strength and flew away. She looked at me with a smile and said, “Mom, what a lovely bird!” Somehow, my rooted fear of birds seemed to lessen a little at that moment. Her interaction with the bird gave me a sense of hope and confidence. However, I was still attached to the fantasy that birds would attack me, bite my face, claw at my eyes, and possibly kill me. I wasn’t sure if I could change. 注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 With much embarrassment, I admitted to my daughter the fear in my heart. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next day, a bird sang near my window — I knew it was time to try my daughter’s advice. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: With much embarrassment, I admitted to my daughter the fear in my heart. My voice trembled as I described the panic that overwhelmed me whenever wings fluttered near me. She listened quietly, her small hand patting mine. “Mom,” she said thoughtfully, “birds are just tiny creatures trying to live, like us. Maybe if you watch them longer, you’ll see they’re more afraid of you.” Her words echoed in my mind that night as I lay awake, remembering how gently she’d held the sparrow. The next day, a bird sang near my window — I knew it was time to try my daughter’s advice. I held my breath, fighting the urge to retreat. The bird turned its head, and then suddenly flapped its wings — but instead of attacking, it simply flew to a nearby tree branch. As I watched it clean its feathers in the sunlight, I realized something important: the bird wasn’t interested in harming me. It was just going about its daily life. For the first time, I didn’t feel afraid. Maybe, I thought, not all birds were to be feared. I could learn to coexist with these winged creatures without fear. 【导语】本文以作者对鸟类的恐惧及转变为线索，讲述了作者自幼极度害怕鸟类，认为鸟类会攻击人类，却在看到女儿温柔救助麻雀后，恐惧稍有缓解，但仍未完全克服，内心挣扎是否能改变的故事。 【详解】 1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我尴尬地向女儿袒露了自己内心的恐惧。”可知，第一段可描写作者尴尬地向女儿倾诉对鸟类的恐惧，声音颤抖地描述内心的恐慌，女儿安静倾听并温柔安慰，用简单的话语点出鸟类只是普通生灵，让作者彻夜思考的经过。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天，一只小鸟在我窗边鸣叫 ——我知道，是时候尝试女儿的建议了”可知，第二段可描写作者听到窗外鸟鸣后，决心尝试女儿的建议，忍住退缩的冲动观察鸟儿，发现鸟儿只是正常活动并无恶意，第一次不再感到恐惧，意识到自己能与鸟类和平共处的情景。 2. 续写线索：向女儿袒露恐惧——女儿安慰并开导——作者思考建议——听到鸟鸣决心尝试——观察鸟儿——克服恐惧——领悟共处之道 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①颤抖：tremble/shake ②观察：watch/observe ③意识到：realize/be aware 情绪类 ①恐慌：panic/terror ②害怕的：afraid/frightened 【点睛】 [高分句型1]My voice trembled as I described the panic that overwhelmed me whenever wings fluttered near me.(运用了as引导时间状语从句，that引导定语从句修饰panic以及whenever引导时间状语从句) [高分句型2]She listened quietly, her small hand patting mine.(运用了独立主格结构) Passage 10 (河北省部分学校2025-2026学年高三上学期9月开学考试试卷英语)Jack was always drawn to the guitar. The way the strings vibrated under the fingers, producing beautiful melodies, seemed almost magical to him. He had seen his older brother play, and the joy on his brother’s face whenever he played a chord(和弦) had inspired Jack to give it a try himself. Jack dreamed of one day being able to play his favorite songs and maybe even write his own music. So, with a mix of excitement and nervousness, Jack bought his first guitar and began his journey into the world of music. The first few days were difficult. Jack’s fingers hurt from pressing down on the strings, and his attempts to play even the simplest chords often resulted in some unpleasant sounds. He spent hours trying to get the right finger placement, but it seemed like no matter how hard he tried, he just couldn’t get it right. His fingertips were sore and red, and his hands felt clumsy(笨拙的). Frustration began to set in. He started to doubt whether he had any talent for playing the guitar at all. There were times when he felt like giving up, thinking that maybe it was just too difficult for him. One evening, after another particularly discouraging practice session, Jack sat on his bed, staring at the guitar leaning against the wall. He felt defeated and discouraged. His older brother, noticing his depressed mood, came over and sat beside him. He asked Jack what was wrong, and Jack sighed, telling him about his struggles with the guitar. His brother listened patiently and then said, “Jack, I know it’s hard, but you’ve only been at it for a few weeks. It takes time and practice. You can’t expect to be perfect right away. Remember why you started in the first place. It’s supposed to be fun! I went through the same thing when I first started, and look at me now. You just need to keep going.” 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 What Jack’s older brother said touched him deeply. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Months passed, and Jack’s persistence(坚持) began to pay off. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 What Jack’s older brother said touched him deeply. He realized that he had let his frustration overshadow his love for music. He decided to give it another try, but this time with a different approach. Instead of trying to master everything at once, he broke down his practice into smaller, more manageable goals. He focused on one chord at a time, practicing it until he could play it smoothly before moving on to the next. He also started to listen to more music, paying attention to how different chords flowed together in songs. Months passed, and Jack’s persistence (坚持) began to pay off. His fingers grew stronger and moved quickly. The once awkward movements became fluid, and he could finally play a lot of chords continuously without hesitation. He felt a wave of pride and accomplishment. All the hours of practice, the frustration, and the moments of doubt had led to this moment. He had not only learned to play the guitar but had also discovered something about himself： With determination, he could overcome challenges that once seemed impossible. 【导语】本文以吉他学习为线索展开，讲述了Jack喜欢学习吉他，但初学吉他受挫，在哥哥鼓励下，重拾信心，坚持练习并获得进步的故事。 【详解】 1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“杰克哥哥的话深深地打动了他。”可知，第一段可描写哥哥的鼓励，Jack重燃信心后的行动。 ②由第二段首句内容“几个月过去了，杰克的坚持开始有了回报。”可知，第二段可描写时间推移体现坚持的结果，展现技能提升和情感升华。 2.续写线索：鼓励——重燃信心——坚持——获得进步——展现技能——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.意识到：realize/be aware of ②.掌握：master/control ③.专心于：focus on/concentrate on 情绪类 ①.爱：love/affection ②.沮丧：frustration/disappointment 【点睛】 [高分句型1]He also started to listen to more music, paying attention to how different chords flowed together in songs.(由现在分词作状语) [高分句型2]He had not only learned to play the guitar but had also discovered something about himself: With determination, he could overcome challenges that once seemed impossible.(由which引导的定语从句) 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 专题18 读后续写之根据六要素和四线把握故事梗概情节 01 思维导图—考法一览无余。 02 解题步骤--解题思路清,三年高考真题让学生了解高考，开悟快。 03 真题模拟集训—精选最新2026各地联考模拟题与高考要求同步,适应学生需求。 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 (2025新高考I卷)My wife and I wanted to share our new home with family and friends by hosting a small gathering in the early summer. She had prepared lots of snacks, while my job was to have the backyard in order. There was plenty of space for the kids to run and play. There was just one thing I hadn't counted on: My brother chose to bring his dog Toby, a 50 - pound ball of fire. Though friendly, he could easily knock over my niece's small boys and my six - month - old granddaughter. So, when my brother showed up, I asked him to watch Toby and keep him outside. My plan was working out just fine. Toby was using up his energy by running back and forth in the backyard and giving the kids plenty of room. Unexpectedly, after supper, the weather changed. It started to rain and everyone went indoors. It was an awkward moment. I didn’t want Toby to be running around in the house, and my brother wasn't happy with driving home with a wet dog. Eventually, my brother decided to leave rather than force the issue. A few days passed, and I hadn't heard anything from my brother. I texted him and expressed wishes for him to come out again. His reply came as a surprise — a shock, actually: "Not a chance." Clearly, he was unhappy over the way we had parted. After all, I had left him little choice. Well, he'll get over it, I reasoned. Two months passed. My wife suggested I get in touch with my brother, but I resisted, thinking he should call first. However, my conscience(良心) kept bothering me. I tried to put myself in my brother's shoes. He was facing health issues and his wife of thirty - five years had passed away a few months earlier. Toby was his constant companion, the one who kept him going. 注意：(1) 续写词数应为150个左右；(2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I realized it was me who was at fault._________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With the biscuits my wife had made, I arrived at my brother's door._________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 主旨大意 本文围绕家庭聚会展开，因兄弟带狗参加聚会,在天气变化后，狗的安置问题导 致兄弟间产生矛盾。之后主角经过反思，认识到自己的错误,带着诚意准备去和兄弟和解，体现了家庭关系中理解、反思与和解的重要性。 续写预测 1."I realized it was me who was at fault." Deeply describe the protagonist's inner reflections on his mistakes, such as recalling his attitude toward his brother during the gathering and thinking about where he ignored his brother's feelings. Then it may describe how the protagonist decides to take action to make amends, such as preparing words of apology, etc. 2. “With the biscuits my wife had made, I arrived at my brother's door.” Describe the protagonist's feelings when arriving at his brother's door, such as nervousness or expectation. Then write about the brother's reaction when opening the door, possibly surprise, indifference, or being moved. Finally, the two resolve the conflict and reconcile through communication. One possible version: I realized it was me who was at fault. My brother had been going through tough times, yet I was so thoughtless about his feelings that rainy day. Toby wasn't just a pet; he was my brother's rock. How could I have forced him to leave his dog out in the rain? The more I reflected, the heavier my guilt grew. I knew I had to make things right—S0 I turned to my wife for advice. She offered to bake a batch of biscuits, hoping these small, warm gestures could start to mend what I'd broken. With the biscuits my wife had made, I arrived at my brother's door. My heart raced as I knocked, worried he'd turn me away. When he finally opened the door, surprise flashed in his eyes. “I'm sorry,” I blurted out, holding out the biscuits. “For being so hard on you that day. Toby is family too, and I should've known better.” My brother sighed, then pulled me into a hug. Inside, Toby greeted me with a wagging tail. As we chatted over the biscuits, laughter slowly filled the room, bridging the gap between us. Passage 1 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 【2025全国II卷】“What is your name? ” is a question most frequently asked when people meet for the first time. But for me, it was the first challenge I encountered as an international student in Ireland. The pronunciation system of the Chinese language is quite different from that of English. For native speakers of English, some Chinese words are rather difficult to pronounce. My given name Qiuyu(秋雨), for instance, happened to be a great challenge for many of them. Every time I gave a self-introduction, I had to explain how to pronounce my name at least five times, yet they still could not say it the way I did. Once in a lecture, the professor tried repeating my name after me over and over in front of thirty classmates. I really did not know whether I should continue correcting him or simply drop the matter. I feared that my classmates might grow tired of my efforts or even lose patience with me. After all, I did care about how others would think of me. I realized that if I didn't stop, the entire lecture would be ruined. “It's okay, professor,” I shrugged(耸肩). The awkward moment ended with the class erupting into laughter. I forced a smile, unsure how to respond further. After that incident, I stopped acting as a “Chinese teacher. ” Instead of correcting others when they were struggling to pronounce my name, I just smiled and nodded approvingly. This approach spared me the discomfort of having to over-explain. However, I soon found that by doing so, I might be losing something more important: the opportunity to share a small part of my cultural identity. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 In a class discussion, I was invited to explain the meaning of my name. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Many of my classmates got interested and came up to me after class. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Passage 2 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 【2025年1月浙江卷】Kevin was pretty bored. His mother was at work, and his father had been away on business. Therefore, he was left in the care of Mrs. Hill, an old lady who lived next door. His parents had raised the 12-year-old to be a good boy. He never got into trouble, though sometimes he wanted to do risky things. Mrs. Hill was asleep. Kevin sighed(叹息) and hoped something exciting would happen. Suddenly, a movement outside caught his eye. Mrs. Hill’s front window faced Mr. and Mrs. Green’s house across the street. The couple had both gone to work, so it was strange that someone was over there. Kevin stared at the man at their front door. Suddenly, the man jumped through an open window into the house. With his heart in his mouth, Kevin grabbed Mrs. Hill’s home phone and called the police. Thinking that the man might get away with whatever he wanted before the police arrived, Kevin decided to do something. He rushed out of Mrs. Hill’s house and crossed the street quickly. Grabbing a branch from a cut-down tree, he jumped in through the window. “Stop right there! You must leave right now!” he called out, holding the branch with both hands. The man froze for a second, but when he saw the skinny boy he breathed a sigh of relief. “Hey, kid, put that down. It was my home. My parents used to live here and my father’s watch was here,” he explained, trying to lift a floorboard. At that moment, the sounds of a police car echoed(回响) in the air. The man stood up in a panic, then ran through the house toward the window and jumped out. Kevin followed out and told the arriving police officers what had happened. They pursued and arrested the man. Kevin went back to Mrs. Hill’s house. Somehow he wasn’t sure he had done the right thing. “What if he has told the truth?” he thought to himself. The man’s words sounded pretty convincing. 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。 Paragraph 1: When Mr. and Mrs. Green got home, Kevin went to talk to them. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Kevin and Mr. Green took the watch they had found to the police station. ____________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Passage 1 (山东省泰安肥城市2025-2026学年高三上学期开学学情诊断英语试题)I liked living in a mess. The desk, which should have been clear for my homework, was always filled with empty milk bottles, old magazines, and Post-it notes. My floor seemed to swallow anything that entered my room. Mom always insisted that I clean my room. I’d respond with a nod, but never actually did it. She ended up having to tidy up herself. But no matter how much she cleaned, I always seemed to turn it into a mess again within days. One weekend afternoon, I was lying in bed, lost in a book while my room was a total mess. Clothes were piled on the chair, snack wrappers littered the floor, and the desk was entirely hidden beneath my school books. I was comfortably immersed in(沉浸在) my chaos — until the phone rang. It was my best friend Felix. “Hey! How about playing chess together?” “Good idea! Just come over!” I replied, picturing us laughing and enjoying each other’s company. However, as soon as I hung up the phone, reality hit me like a ton of bricks: my room was an absolute disaster! I didn’t want my friend to see my room like this. My mind raced — should I call Felix back and tell him I am too busy? Wouldn’t it be better to spare him from the horror of stepping into my disaster zone? But I felt so guilty at the thought of lying to my best friend just because it looked as if a tornado had hit my room. I decided to tidy up my room. With only half an hour before Felix arrived, I felt the pressure increasing. I thought about asking someone for help, so I stepped out of my room. I found my brother playing video games and my dad working. Only Mom seemed to have a moment to spare. When I approached her with my request, she turned me down. “You can handle it on your own. Just learn to be independent,” she said gently. 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。 I knew there was no way out this time. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Just as I finished cleaning, I heard a knock on the door. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Passage 2 (2026届福建省福州市高三上学期第一次质量检测英语试题) An Unexpected Angel In the extreme heat, I watched an elderly woman struggle with bags of groceries. Slowing down, I opened the window and called out, “Need a ride?” I helped her into the passenger seat, and we were off. She directed me to go farther south. Suddenly, I realized we were on the “wrong side of town.” It was starting to get dark, and I began to feel uneasy. We continued down unfamiliar streets until she finally pointed to an old apartment building. The street was dirty and the air was smelly. Several young men gathered around the entrance. They appeared threatening. Some were on motorcycles, and one boy with bushy, long hair was staring at me intently(目不转睛地) — too intently — and smiling. I was getting more and more uncomfortable. I stopped the car. A couple of the guys helped with the groceries. The old lady thanked me, and I drove away as fast as I could. I was driving when I was interrupted by a motorcycle behind me. It was that boy who kept smiling at me with a strange look! In a panic, I slowed down, hoping he would pass me. But he continued to drive at the same speed as me. I realized he was waving for me to stop. No way was I going to stop for a stranger on an unfamiliar street. I tried to speed away, but it didn’t stop him. He raced after me again. Getting increasingly anxious, I reached down in the passenger seat to get my cell phone. I had to call 911. With my eyes on the road, one hand on the wheel and the other hand searching on the seat next to me, I found a phone. But it wasn’t mine. “Oh no, the lady took my phone by mistake!” Meanwhile, the guy on the bike stayed close to me. 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。 I saw the boy waving something. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I felt guilty and wanted to reward the boy. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Passage 3 (2026届河北省衡水市高三上学期第二次调研考试(二模)英语试题)Emma’s love for the guitar began at seven, when she found her grandfather’s old guitar in the dusty storeroom. A warm feeling spread from her fingertips to her chest as she touched the strings — a connection that grew stronger each year. Now sixteen, her room showed her passion: bright guitar posters covered the walls, a jar of colorful picks sat on her desk, and a well-used songbook with quick notes lay beside her bed. She practiced every day, slipping out after dinner to go to guitar classes downtown. Those evenings, learning to make melodies felt like real freedom. Her father, Mr. Thompson, a careful engineer who liked order, saw her love of guitar as a distraction. “Engineering equations(方程) don’t care about guitar solos,” he’d say sharply, his brow wrinkling as he shut her bedroom door while she was practicing. Every Thursday, he checked her report card with a ruler in hand, tapping hard on her weak math part until she pulled back. “A 72 in algebra won’t get you into MIT,” he’d say coldly, ignoring her trying to explain that equations confused her. Emma tried hard to balance both. She’d wake up at 5 a.m. to study trigonometry(三角学) by lamp light before school, and then hurry to the music room at lunch to practice. While her guitar skills got better, math stayed hard. Her music teacher, Mr Lee, seeing her talent, secretly put her in the city “Young Musicians” contest. Last Friday, she stepped on stage and played a song she’d written about her conflicting interests. When named winner, she hugged her guitar, the gold trophy(奖杯) shining. Smiling widely, she ran home to show the trophy before dealing with her math test. But her father waited in the hallway, jaw tight, her wrinkled test in his hand.

Cs are absolutely unacceptable for me, because I won’t be salutatorian(致辞学生) with a C. From first grade to high school, I had never made a C. In fact, only a handful of Bs had ever got into the mix of As on my report card. But I had hit a trouble in high school — geometry(几何). I truly couldn’t “see” how those little triangles and squares fit together. Friends tried to help me and I spent hours every night, going over problems with other honor students. And then a mid-term came and I made another C. Until the year I took geometry, I was in the running to be salutatorian to represent all the students to deliver the graduation speech. According to my mother, she had been pre-elected as her class salutatorian. Then, because of pneumonia (肺炎) and several weeks of missed classes, her grades fell. Though she didn’t put much pressure on me, I was determined to realize that dream for her. After getting the C in geometry, I studied like I had never studied before. The last hope to raise my grade was the final exam. I would have to make an A in order to raise my overall average to a B. It was a long shot, but it was all I had left. I’ll never forget taking that final exam. My hands were sweaty. I worked and reworked every problem. When I finally finished my paper, I believed that it was the best I could do. After school, I rushed to my geometry teacher’s office. She had already graded the papers. I made a B — a strong, solid B. It was not enough to change my average. I would get a C in geometry on my report card and that was final. I was heartbroken because I knew not only would I lose salutatorian spot but also I had lost my last chance to realize my mother’s dream. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The geometry teacher sensed my depression and offered to let me stay. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After a long silence, the teacher said firmly, “Then you should be proud.” _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Passage 5 (2026届湖北省武汉市部分高中高三上学期九月调研考试英语试题)It was a typical busy noon at the downtown fast-food spot. The smell of sizzling patties and crispy fries lingered(弥漫) in the air, and the place was packed with folks rushing to grab a quick meal. I’d just gotten off a long morning at work, and my stomach was empty as I finally reached the front of the line and got my order-a burger, fries, and a cold drink. As I set the tray(托盘) down on a small table by the window, I glanced over and saw two firefighters in the corner. Their uniforms were heavy with faint spots, like they’d just stepped away from a smoky scene, and their boots still held a hint of damp from the morning dew. They stood in the back of the line, shoulders relaxed but eyes tired. I was just about to pick up my burger-the cheese melted perfectly-when a loud, sharp siren(警报) cut through the noise of the restaurant. The two firefighters froze for half a second, and then moved. No hesitation, no exchange of words — just muscle memory. One grabbed his helmet off the nearby counter, the other adjusted his radio on his shoulder, and they turned toward the door, their steps quickening. I watched them go, and my fork paused mid-air. My empty stomach served as a quiet reminder of how long I’d waited for this meal. I’d stood in that line for 15 minutes, my feet aching from the morning’s work. Giving them my lunch meant I would have to wait again-maybe another line, maybe my break slipping away faster. I bit my lip, staring at the tray. Then I thought of their uniforms, the spots, the way they’d act upon hearing the siren like it was a call they couldn’t ignore. They didn’t get to pause for a meal when emergencies hit. They’d probably go hours without eating, running from one call to the next. 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。 My hesitation melted away. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I went back to the counter, only to find the manager was waiting for me. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Passage 6 (安徽省蚌埠市2025-2026学年高三上学期开学考试英语试卷) Renting a Son for New Year Snow fell softly as Mike walked down the quiet street. Only his footsteps and distant holiday sounds broke the silence. It was Christmas Eve. His small apartment, usually comfortable, felt empty — no family to call. His parents had died long ago, leaving only old photos to remember them by. Then he saw a note on a shop window: “Looking for a kind young man to share Christmas Eve. Two old people.” A warm feeling touched his heart. He called the number slowly, fingers pausing before dialing. Before he finished knocking, a door opened. An old lady with white hair like snow pulled him in, saying, “You’re cold.” Her grasp was firm but gentle. The house smelled of cookies, a sweet scent that made him think of childhood. She held his arm, as if making sure he was real, not a dream. In the guest room, a photo caught his eye: a 20-year-old with a bright smile. The quiet old man spoke low: “That’s our son, Tom. He was a fireman. Three years back, a big fire — he saved a girl but didn’t come out.” Silence filled the air. The lady called them to the kitchen. She made dough(面团); he added chocolate pieces. The old man watched, smiling, as if this was his best gift. She talked of Tom’s first bike he rode it into a bush and funny stories that still made her laugh. He listened, asking about Tom’s favorite films and hobbies, feeling like they could have been friends. They lit small lights, ate warm cookies, watched a film about a family’s holiday adventures, and laughed till she looked tired. Next morning, sun came through the curtains and woke him. Downstairs, the old man tried to give him money. Mike refused, shaking his head: “I don’t need this.” “Your wife is ill?” Mike asked, seeing her pale in a chair by the window. The man sighed. “She has cancer, not long to live. She dreamed of spending time with Tom again, like we did every year … but he’s gone,” his voice sad. Paragraph 1 The old man’s trembling words hurt his heart, and Mike stood rooted to the spot, a mix of shock and sorrow washing over him. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2 As the first snowflakes of winter danced from the sky the next year, Mike found himself standing before the old couple’s villa again _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Passage 7 (安徽皖江名校联盟2025-2026学年高三上学期9月开学考试英语试题)As a child, I lived in a working class area on the west side of Wichita. There was a bridge over the river half a block away from where I lived, and on the other side, there was Calvin’s Hamburger Haven. It was one of those old small restaurants converted from a trailer(拖车) — just a counter and the grill behind, where Mr Calvin worked. Mr Calvin was a thin, quiet man. He wasn’t very talkative, but, unlike many business owners in those days, he didn’t seem to mind kids hanging around and looking at the envelopes of stamps on the walls. The stamps fascinated me. I had my father’s stamp album (he’d died when I was less than one year old), but had never thought about being a collector myself. When I asked about them, Mr Calvin took time to tell me about the different kinds, the tools of collecting and so on. He was a collector himself, and, with his advice and information, I also became one. One day he asked if I wanted to go to a meeting of his stamp club. The second day, my mother dropped me off at Mr Calvin’s house, a big old Victorian house. I was the only child there, and that was the first time I had the feeling that the other men — mostly middle-aged and wealthy, and now I know that some were locally outstanding — were annoyed a kid was there. He let me care for myself, sure enough that I could. And very quickly, I found myself in conversations about stamps, being shown specialized collections and being given serious advice. That I could so easily fit in with a group like that was amazing to me — and it was the beginning of the understanding that I didn’t have to remain in the world I lived in. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Years later, I took my grade-school children on a walking tour of the area where I’d lived. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Tears rolled down my face for Mr Calvin’s death. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Passage 8 (福建省漳州市2025-2026学年高三上学期第一次教学质量检测英语试题)Seven-year-old Olly wished he could turn invisible whenever he liked. When his sister Lily was born, that wish unexpectedly came true, but it wasn’t as fun as he had imagined. Lily had arrived a month earlier than she was supposed to be and needed to stay in an incubator(保育箱) at the hospital. Mum and Dad spent most of their time with her. Even after she came home, their attention remained fixed on the tiny newborn. One day, Olly asked Mum to teach him to swim. He hoped it would be a way to reconnect. But Mum, focused on caring for Lily, suggested he ask Dad instead. Upstairs, Dad bent over his laptop, typing. When Olly asked, he replied without looking up-he had too much work to catch up on. Angry, Olly stamped downstairs. Being a big brother was the worst thing in the world. Bored, he stepped outside the house, though he knew his parents wouldn’t allow him to do so on his own. “Whatever! No one cares.” he thought, sad and lonely, “Olly the Invisible, that’s me.” He wandered down the street until he came to the house of Mrs. Cooper, his teacher. “Olly?” Mrs. Cooper called out from her garden. “Are you on your own? Your mum will be worried!” “No, she won’t. She’s too busy with Lily.” he whispered, “They don’t want me anymore.” “You don’t really mean that. Come and wait in my house while I rang your dad.” Olly obediently followed her into her house. He looked around the house as Mrs. Cooper turned away and spoke into the phone in a low voice. Olly knew what that meant. He had turned invisible again. “Your dad is coming straight away.” Mrs. Cooper told Olly when she had finished on the phone. Olly kept silent in sorrow. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Mrs. Cooper knew he needed some comfort. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mrs. Cooper stood up to open the door. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Passage 9 (贵州省贵阳市2025-2026学年高三上学期8月摸底考试英语试题)I intentionally walked in front of an oncoming car — to avoid a pigeon. As the car came to a sudden stop just a few feet away, I panicked, realizing I almost got killed. “What’s wrong with you?” the driver yelled, cursing angrily. “Do you want to die?” I knew what was wrong with me. I had a lifelong fear of birds. My mother claimed that, when I was an infant, I started to cry if a bird flew past my baby carriage. During my childhood, I dashed away from bird cages in pet stores. The sound of birds singing outside left me shaking. Well-meaning friends of my parents tried to break my extreme fear by taking their talkative bird from its cage and letting it fly around me. They asked me to allow the bird to stay on my arm for one second, two seconds and more to get rid of my fear. However, I’d run away from the room screaming, convinced that their noisy parrot would peck out my eyes. When I watched Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds on television, I knew my fear was reasonable. In the plot, ordinary birds tore open roofs and violently attacked people. I always knew that birds would rise up against humanity someday. One day, while I and my daughter were in the park, she noticed a small sparrow struggling to fly. Instead of running away, she gently picked it up and held it gently in her hands. She spoke softly to it, and after a few minutes, the bird regained its strength and flew away. She looked at me with a smile and said, “Mom, what a lovely bird!” Somehow, my rooted fear of birds seemed to lessen a little at that moment. Her interaction with the bird gave me a sense of hope and confidence. However, I was still attached to the fantasy that birds would attack me, bite my face, claw at my eyes, and possibly kill me. I wasn’t sure if I could change. 注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 With much embarrassment, I admitted to my daughter the fear in my heart. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next day, a bird sang near my window — I knew it was time to try my daughter’s advice. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Passage 10 (河北省部分学校2025-2026学年高三上学期9月开学考试试卷英语)Jack was always drawn to the guitar. The way the strings vibrated under the fingers, producing beautiful melodies, seemed almost magical to him. He had seen his older brother play, and the joy on his brother’s face whenever he played a chord(和弦) had inspired Jack to give it a try himself. Jack dreamed of one day being able to play his favorite songs and maybe even write his own music. So, with a mix of excitement and nervousness, Jack bought his first guitar and began his journey into the world of music. The first few days were difficult. Jack’s fingers hurt from pressing down on the strings, and his attempts to play even the simplest chords often resulted in some unpleasant sounds. He spent hours trying to get the right finger placement, but it seemed like no matter how hard he tried, he just couldn’t get it right. His fingertips were sore and red, and his hands felt clumsy(笨拙的). Frustration began to set in. He started to doubt whether he had any talent for playing the guitar at all. There were times when he felt like giving up, thinking that maybe it was just too difficult for him. One evening, after another particularly discouraging practice session, Jack sat on his bed, staring at the guitar leaning against the wall. He felt defeated and discouraged. His older brother, noticing his depressed mood, came over and sat beside him. He asked Jack what was wrong, and Jack sighed, telling him about his struggles with the guitar. His brother listened patiently and then said, “Jack, I know it’s hard, but you’ve only been at it for a few weeks. It takes time and practice. You can’t expect to be perfect right away. Remember why you started in the first place. It’s supposed to be fun! I went through the same thing when I first started, and look at me now. You just need to keep going.” 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 What Jack’s older brother said touched him deeply. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Months passed, and Jack’s persistence(坚持) began to pay off. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
