I was lost in the city. My nerves were stressed. My muscles were tense. My heart was pounding. My hands held the steering wheel (方向盘) of my car as I circled the same city block for the tenth time. As a girl, I grew up in the country. I had never driven in the city before, but I needed to pick up my elder daughter. With my three sons in the car, I was trying my best to find the exit back to the interstate highway. This happened long before GPS, and my handwritten directions seemed to be wrong. It didn’t help that the experienced city drivers were going around me with just inches to spare as I inched my way back to the turnoff again. Finally, in desperation, I whispered, “Please. I want to go home. Help us find our way safely there.”
At that moment, I saw it, the tiny one-lane exit that led to the interstate highway again. At the last second, I pulled into the right lane. The traffic out of the city at that time of the day was even worse than that in the city. It was heavy traffic at 45 miles per hour. Finally, though, the vehicles started to thin out and moved freely, and I could relax at the wheel. I took in the beauty of the mountains covered by green forests. I smiled at the sun shining down on them. At last, we turned off the four-lane highway onto the winding two-lane road that would take us the last 16 miles home. I turned on the radio and laughed with joy when I heard the song, “Take Me Home, Country Roads”, playing loudly.
In our life, we will all take many paths and travel around many places. But in the end, all roads will lead us home again. So travel with a light and loving heart.
4. Why was the author lost in the city?
A. She couldn’t use the GPS properly. B. She didn’t know the city’s entrance.
C. She had no driving experience in the city. D. She forgot the directions provided online.
5. When did the author start to feel at ease while driving?
A. When she turned onto the two-lane road.
B. As soon as she heard the song on the radio.
C. After she saw the exit to the interstate highway.
D. When the traffic on the interstate highway lessened.
6. What does the author mainly express in the last paragraph?
A. Her opinions on home. B. Her insights into life.
C. Her desire for travelling. D. Her love for urban paths.
7. What is the best title for the text?
A. Traffic Tales B. Roads Lead Home
C. Lost and Found D. Country and City Adventures
C
Tomatoes and fries make a tasty pair. But the connection between tomatoes and potatoes may go beyond making a good meal. Potatoes today might have evolved with the help of an early tomato, according to a new paper published in a leading scientific journal recently.
A team of scientists analyzed the genomes (基因组) of wild potatoes, tomatoes, and their ancestors. They found that each potato species contains a mix of genetics from tomatoes and a potato-like ancestor, suggesting the modern potato resulted from an event between the two. “This is one of the largest genomic collections of wild potatoes ever analyzed,” says Zhiyang Zhang, a researcher at the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences and the lead author of the study.
Scientists already knew that tomatoes and potatoes were related to some degree — both belong to the Solanum (茄属植物) group, after all, along with the eggplant. And potatoes and tomatoes are each other’s closest living relatives. So, they took a closer look at their genes. Zhang and his team found that wild tomato plants interbred with a potato-like plant called Etuberosum around nine million years ago. Alone, neither plant had the genes to make these underground parts — but together, they could grow the feature.
That event, the authors suggest, occurred in the Andes Mountains. The underground parts allowed the potato to survive in this unforgiving habitat and spread across the world. They enabled plants to reproduce without seeds, making them adaptable. “Evolving these underground parts gave potatoes a huge advantage in hard environments, fueling an explosion of new species,” says Sanwen Huang, a genome researcher at the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences and the study’s senior author, in a statement.
Zhang’s team hopes that understanding the potato’s evolution can help scientists develop innovative ways to breed the species and make the food stronger today. Zhang is already looking into ways potatoes might be grown from seeds. Seed potatoes could be more genetically diverse and resistant to various risks, such as drought. The work also demonstrates how different species can be unexpectedly connected by evolution. “Next time you eat potatoes,” Huang adds, “thank a tomato.”
8. Why does the author mention “tomatoes and fries”?
A. To introduce the topic of the text. B. To show their different flavors.
C. To summarize the content of the text. D. To compare their evolutionary patterns.
9. How did the scientists mainly conduct their study?
A. They checked some genetic information.
B. They observed the ancestor plants’ seeds.
C. They studied modern potatoes’ different fruits.
D They analyzed potatoes and tomatoes’ relatives.
10. What does the underlined word “interbred” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Survived together. B. Disappeared together.
C. Produced young together. D. Made changes together.
11. What do Sanwen Huang and Zhiyang Zhang stress?
A. The necessity of thanking potatoes.
B. The importance of studying potatoes’ evolution.
C. The key to learning the risks of planting potatoes.
D. The solution to improving potatoes’ living environments.
D
There is a new type of camera that works in a way similar to human eyes, which may be very useful for astronomers. It can clearly show both extremely bright celestial bodies (天体) and not very bright objects in the same photo, and can also track fast-moving celestial bodies without motion-caused unclear images.
Traditional digital cameras work by checking pixels (像素) many times per second, recording data from every pixel each time. These new cameras, known as event cameras, work differently: A pixel is only checked when the brightness at that pixel’s location changes. If the brightness at a point on the sensor is the same as the previous reading, no new data is stored. This is similar to how human eyes collect sensory information.
This working method has advantages. For the same video, it stores less data as it only records pixels with changing brightness, and it can operate at a much higher rate. In addition, such cameras can show not very bright objects even with very bright ones nearby — these bright objects would cause overexposure in images taken by traditional cameras. This is because its pixels detect light in a different way instead of following a linear scale.
To explore the potential of this technology in astronomy, Chetan Singh Thakur from the Indian Institute of Science and his colleagues installed these cameras on each of the two telescopes in India. They successfully got clear images of objects between the Earth and the Moon and also took pictures of the Siria binary system, which consists of Sirius A, the brightest star in the night sky, and Sirius B.
Mark Norris from the University of Central Lancashire in the UK, not involved in the study, pointed out that Sirius A is about 10,000 times brighter than Sirius B, which means traditional sensors can never show both clearly in a single photo. Meanwhile, Singh Thakur added, “These cameras are also excellent at detecting fast-moving objects due to their higher rates. You can shoot at very high speeds and still get fast-moving objects. Ordinary cameras would only produce unclear images.”
12. How does the author begin paragraph 1?
A. By listing statistics. B. By giving a definition.
C. By describing a phenomenon. D. By drawing a comparison.
13. Which statement fits the event cameras’ working mode?
A. They check pixels constantly. B. They tend to store the same data.
C. They focus on changing brightness data. D. They record stable pixels’ locations.
14. What does paragraph 4 mainly show about the event cameras?
A. Their major components. B. Their installation process.
C. Their potential advantages. D. Their practical application.
15. What is Mark Norris’s attitude to the event cameras?
A. Approving. B. Watchful. C. Critical. D. Indifferent.

47. 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。
I attended an international school where there were many sports activities. When our school announced a new badminton program, David, my classmate and good friend, decided to join it right away.
“Badminton? How hard can it be?” I joked and said to David. On the first day, however, my confidence quickly disappeared. My serves were weak; my smashes (扣球) were off-target; my footwork was a mess. Meanwhile, David was a natural. His moves were smooth and powerful, and he improved quickly. Seeing my depressed expression, he encouraged me, “You’ll get better soon.” But I couldn’t help feeling frustrated. Coach Li noticed my struggles and said, “Badminton isn’t just about skill. It’s about persistence, focus, and teamwork. Keep trying, young guy!”
A few weeks later, Coach Li made an exciting announcement: There would be a badminton tournament in our school. David and I were paired as a doubles team. He was excited, but I was nervous. “What if I hold us back?” I wondered. During practice, Coach Li gathered us and said, “Remember, badminton isn’t about being perfect on your own. It’s about helping each other and thinking strategically.” His words stayed with me, but I still doubted whether we could succeed. Then, something unexpected happened. While cleaning up the storage room, I discovered an old badminton guidebook filled with clever strategies and tips. I started studying it at night, practicing moves like deceptive serves (假发球) and sharp net shots. “Maybe this can give us an edge,” I thought.
On tournament day, the gym was full of excitement. Our early matches were tough, but thanks to David’s skill and my newly learned strategies, we fought hard and won. I used unexpected drops and tricky shots from the book, surprising our opponents. Feeling amazed, David asked me, “Where did that come from?” I just smiled. Each victory boosted my confidence, but I knew the final challenge would be the hardest.
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 final match was against the school’s top players.

I was lost in the city. My nerves were stressed. My muscles were tense. My heart was pounding. My hands held the steering wheel (方向盘) of my car as I circled the same city block for the tenth time. As a girl, I grew up in the country. I had never driven in the city before, but I needed to pick up my elder daughter. With my three sons in the car, I was trying my best to find the exit back to the interstate highway. This happened long before GPS, and my handwritten directions seemed to be wrong. It didn’t help that the experienced city drivers were going around me with just inches to spare as I inched my way back to the turnoff again. Finally, in desperation, I whispered, “Please. I want to go home. Help us find our way safely there.”
At that moment, I saw it, the tiny one-lane exit that led to the interstate highway again. At the last second, I pulled into the right lane. The traffic out of the city at that time of the day was even worse than that in the city. It was heavy traffic at 45 miles per hour. Finally, though, the vehicles started to thin out and moved freely, and I could relax at the wheel. I took in the beauty of the mountains covered by green forests. I smiled at the sun shining down on them. At last, we turned off the four-lane highway onto the winding two-lane road that would take us the last 16 miles home. I turned on the radio and laughed with joy when I heard the song, “Take Me Home, Country Roads”, playing loudly.
In our life, we will all take many paths and travel around many places. But in the end, all roads will lead us home again. So travel with a light and loving heart.

C. She had no driving experience in the city. D. She forgot the directions provided online.
5. When did the author start to feel at ease while driving?
A. When she turned onto the two-lane road.
B. As soon as she heard the song on the radio.
C. After she saw the exit to the interstate highway.

Tomatoes and fries make a tasty pair. But the connection between tomatoes and potatoes may go beyond making a good meal. Potatoes today might have evolved with the help of an early tomato, according to a new paper published in a leading scientific journal recently.
A team of scientists analyzed the genomes (基因组) of wild potatoes, tomatoes, and their ancestors. They found that each potato species contains a mix of genetics from tomatoes and a potato-like ancestor, suggesting the modern potato resulted from an event between the two. “This is one of the largest genomic collections of wild potatoes ever analyzed,” says Zhiyang Zhang, a researcher at the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences and the lead author of the study.
Scientists already knew that tomatoes and potatoes were related to some degree — both belong to the Solanum (茄属植物) group, after all, along with the eggplant. And potatoes and tomatoes are each other’s closest living relatives. So, they took a closer look at their genes. Zhang and his team found that wild tomato plants interbred with a potato-like plant called Etuberosum around nine million years ago. Alone, neither plant had the genes to make these underground parts — but together, they could grow the feature.
That event, the authors suggest, occurred in the Andes Mountains. The underground parts allowed the potato to survive in this unforgiving habitat and spread across the world. They enabled plants to reproduce without seeds, making them adaptable. “Evolving these underground parts gave potatoes a huge advantage in hard environments, fueling an explosion of new species,” says Sanwen Huang, a genome researcher at the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences and the study’s senior author, in a statement.
Zhang’s team hopes that understanding the potato’s evolution can help scientists develop innovative ways to breed the species and make the food stronger today. Zhang is already looking into ways potatoes might be grown from seeds. Seed potatoes could be more genetically diverse and resistant to various risks, such as drought. The work also demonstrates how different species can be unexpectedly connected by evolution. “Next time you eat potatoes,” Huang adds, “thank a tomato.”
8. Why does the author mention “tomatoes and fries”?
A. To introduce the topic of the text. B. To show their different flavors.
C. To summarize the content of the text. D. To compare their evolutionary patterns.
9. How did the scientists mainly conduct their study?
A. They checked some genetic information.
B. They observed the ancestor plants’ seeds.
C. They studied modern potatoes’ different fruits.
D They analyzed potatoes and tomatoes’ relatives.
10. What does the underlined word “interbred” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Survived together. B. Disappeared together.
C. Produced young together. D. Made changes together.
11. What do Sanwen Huang and Zhiyang Zhang stress?
A. The necessity of thanking potatoes.
B. The importance of studying potatoes’ evolution.
C. The key to learning the risks of planting potatoes.
D. The solution to improving potatoes’ living environments.
【答案】8. A 9. A 10. C 11. B

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项新研究,该研究发现土豆如今的进化可能得益于早期的番茄。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Tomatoes and fries make a tasty pair. But the connection between tomatoes and potatoes may go beyond making a good meal. Potatoes today might have evolved with the help of an early tomato, according to a new paper published in a leading scientific journal recently.(番茄和薯条是美味搭档。但番茄和土豆之间的联系可能不止于构成一顿佳肴。据最近发表在某顶尖科学期刊上的一篇新论文称,如今的土豆或许是在早期番茄的帮助下进化而来的)”可知,作者提及番茄和薯条是为了用人们熟悉的搭配引出番茄与土豆进化关联这一主题。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“A team of scientists analyzed the genomes (基因组) of wild potatoes, tomatoes, and their ancestors. They found that each potato species contains a mix of genetics from tomatoes and a potato-like ancestor, suggesting the modern potato resulted from an event between the two.(一组科学家分析了野生土豆、番茄及其祖先的基因组。他们发现,每个土豆品种的基因都混合了番茄和一种类土豆祖先的基因,表明现代马铃薯是两者之间的一次事件的产物)”可知,科学家主要通过分析基因组(即遗传信息)开展研究。故选A。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段中“Zhang and his team found that wild tomato plants interbred with a potato-like plant called Etuberosum around nine million years ago. Alone, neither plant had the genes to make these underground parts — but together, they could grow the feature.(张和他的团队发现,大约 900 万年前,野生番茄植株与一种名为 Etuberosum 的类土豆植株 interbred。单独来看,这两种植物都没有长出这些地下部分(指土豆的块茎)的基因,但结合在一起,它们就能培育出这一特征)”可知,“单独无相关基因,结合后有特征”暗示两者发生了基因融合,即“杂交繁殖”。由此猜测interbred意为“杂交繁殖”,与Produced young together(一起繁殖后代)含义一致。故选C。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“Zhang’s team hopes that understanding the potato’s evolution can help scientists develop innovative ways to breed the species and make the food stronger today.(张的团队希望,了解土豆的进化能帮助科学家开发创新的育种方法,让这种作物如今变得更茁壮)”及“‘Evolving these underground parts gave potatoes a huge advantage in hard environments, fueling an explosion of new species,’ says Sanwen Huang, a genome researcher at the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences and the study’s senior author, in a statement.(中国农业科学院基因组研究员、该研究报告的资深作者黄三文在一份声明中说,这些地下部分的进化使土豆在艰苦环境中具有巨大优势,促进了新物种的激增)”可知,两人均强调研究土豆进化的重要性——既揭示其进化优势,又能助力实际育种。故选B。
D
There is a new type of camera that works in a way similar to human eyes, which may be very useful for astronomers. It can clearly show both extremely bright celestial bodies (天体) and not very bright objects in the same photo, and can also track fast-moving celestial bodies without motion-caused unclear images.
Traditional digital cameras work by checking pixels (像素) many times per second, recording data from every pixel each time. These new cameras, known as event cameras, work differently: A pixel is only checked when the brightness at that pixel’s location changes. If the brightness at a point on the sensor is the same as the previous reading, no new data is stored. This is similar to how human eyes collect sensory information.
This working method has advantages. For the same video, it stores less data as it only records pixels with changing brightness, and it can operate at a much higher rate. In addition, such cameras can show not very bright objects even with very bright ones nearby — these bright objects would cause overexposure in images taken by traditional cameras. This is because its pixels detect light in a different way instead of following a linear scale.
To explore the potential of this technology in astronomy, Chetan Singh Thakur from the Indian Institute of Science and his colleagues installed these cameras on each of the two telescopes in India. They successfully got clear images of objects between the Earth and the Moon and also took pictures of the Siria binary system, which consists of Sirius A, the brightest star in the night sky, and Sirius B.
Mark Norris from the University of Central Lancashire in the UK, not involved in the study, pointed out that Sirius A is about 10,000 times brighter than Sirius B, which means traditional sensors can never show both clearly in a single photo. Meanwhile, Singh Thakur added, “These cameras are also excellent at detecting fast-moving objects due to their higher rates. You can shoot at very high speeds and still get fast-moving objects. Ordinary cameras would only produce unclear images.”
12. How does the author begin paragraph 1?
A. By listing statistics. B. By giving a definition.
C. By describing a phenomenon. D. By drawing a comparison.
13. Which statement fits the event cameras’ working mode?
A. They check pixels constantly. B. They tend to store the same data.
C. They focus on changing brightness data. D. They record stable pixels’ locations.
14. What does paragraph 4 mainly show about the event cameras?
A. Their major components. B. Their installation process.
C. Their potential advantages. D. Their practical application.
15. What is Mark Norris’s attitude to the event cameras?
A. Approving. B. Watchful. C. Critical. D. Indifferent.
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一种工作方式类似人眼的新型相机,这种相机对天文学颇具价值。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段第一句“There is a new type of camera that works in a way similar to human eyes, which may be very useful for astronomers. (有一种新型照相机的工作原理与人眼相似,这对天文学家来说可能非常有用)”可知,作者通过将这种新型相机的工作方式与人眼的工作方式进行比较,引出了这种新型相机的特性及其对天文学的潜在价值。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。 根据第二段中“These new cameras, known as event cameras, work differently: A pixel is only checked when the brightness at that pixel’s location changes. If the brightness at a point on the sensor is the same as the previous reading, no new data is stored. This is similar to how human eyes collect sensory information. (这些被称为“事件相机”(event camera)的新相机的工作方式有所不同:只有当像素所在位置的亮度发生变化时,才会检查像素。如果传感器上某一点的亮度与之前的读数相同,则不存储新数据。这与人眼收集感官信息的方式类似)”可知,只有当某个像素位置的亮度发生变化时,这种新型相机才会检查该像素。如果传感器上某一点的亮度与前一次读数相同,新数据则不会被存储下来。故选C。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“To explore the potential of this technology in astronomy, Chetan Singh Thakur from the Indian Institute of Science and his colleagues installed these cameras on each of the two telescopes in India. They successfully got clear images of objects between the Earth and the Moon and also took pictures of the Siria binary system, which consists of Sirius A, the brightest star in the night sky, and Sirius B. (为了探索这项技术在天文学上的潜力,印度科学研究所的Chetan Singh Thakur和他的同事们在印度的两台望远镜上分别安装了这些相机。他们成功地拍摄了地球和月球之间物体的清晰图像,并拍摄了由夜空中最亮的天狼星A和天狼星B组成的天狼星双星系统的照片)”可知,本段主要描述了这种新型相机在天文学中的实际应用。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句“Mark Norris from the University of Central Lancashire in the UK, not involved in the study, pointed out that Sirius A is about 10,000 times brighter than Sirius B, which means traditional sensors can never show both clearly in a single photo. (没有参与这项研究的英国中央兰开夏大学的马克·诺里斯指出,天狼星A的亮度大约是天狼星B的1万倍,这意味着传统的传感器无法在一张照片中清楚地显示两者)”可知,Mark Norris指出,天狼星A的亮度约为天狼星B亮度的10,000倍,这意味着传统传感器永远无法在一张照片中同时清晰呈现二者。由此可知,他对事件相机持认可的态度。故选A。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了近年来人工智能(AI)的快速发展及其在教育领域的应用,特别是以天津一所中学为例,介绍了该校在AI教育探索的三个阶段以及AI如何成为日常教学的重要部分,同时也指出了AI生成的教学材料存在的局限性。
【36题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:近年来,人工智能(AI)得到了迅速发展。由In recent years可知,句子时态用现在完成时,人工智能也可能会继续发展下去,因此也可以用现在完成进行时,主语artificial intelligence是不可数名词,因此空格处是has developed/has been developing。故填has developed/has been developing。
【37题详解】
考查名词的复数。句意:随着人工智能虚拟助教的整合,像孔子这样的历史人物现在可以在课堂上栩栩如生,为学生提供互动的学习体验。figure是“人物”,是可数名词,不止一个,因此用复数,故填figures。
【38题详解】
考查固定短语。句意:天津一所中学经历了三个阶段人工智能教育探索。go through是固定短语,意为“经历”,故填through。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:2017年,它组织了一小群对人工智能感兴趣的学生,让他们参加机器人和其他比赛。句中谓语是organized,空格处用非谓语动词,it和allow之间是主谓关系,因此用现在分词表主动,作状语,故填allowing。
【40题详解】
考查形容词。句意:2022年,学校决定扩大人工智能教育项目的覆盖范围。be determined to do sth.是固定短语,意为“下定决心做某事”,故填determined。
【41题详解】
考查冠词。句意:人工智能现在已经成为学校日常教学的重要组成部分,作为教学助手,为传统教育带来了新的体验。part是可数名词的复数形式,表泛指,前面要加不定冠词,important是元音音素开头,因此不定冠词用an,故填an。
【42题详解】
考查副词。句意:教育工作者普遍承认人工智能对课堂效率的变革性影响。空格处用副词widely修饰动词acknowledge,widely意为“普遍地”,故填widely。
【43题详解】
考查物主代词。句意:然而,他们中的一些人认为人工智能生成的教材仍然有其局限性。it和limitations之间是所属关系,因此用形容词性物主代词its表所属,故填its。
【44题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:一位女教师表示,人工智能制作的演示文稿、演讲和补充材料往往缺乏个性化,不能完全反映教师的独特风格。空格处引导的是限制性定语从句,从句中缺少主语,先行词materials是物,因此用关系代词which/that引导定语从句,故填which/that。
【45题详解】
考查过去分词。句意:她说:“人工智能生成图像和多媒体内容有时与给定的描述不完全一致,需要人工调整。”give与descriptions为被动关系,用过去分词作定语。故填given。

【答案】A Memorable Experience
Last week was the “Chinese Traditional Culture Experience Week” of our school, when our class held a kite-making and flying activity.
During the activity, the teacher first introduced the history of kites, explaining their cultural significance. Then we started making our own kites using bamboo sticks and colorful paper. We designed various patterns, such as dragons and birds, to decorate our kites. Finally, we went to the school playground to fly them. Watching the kites soar into the sky filled us with excitement and pride.
This experience was both fun and meaningful. It not only improved our hands-on skills but also deepened our appreciation for Chinese traditions. I hope more activities like this can be organized in the future!

第二节(满分25分)
47. 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。
I attended an international school where there were many sports activities. When our school announced a new badminton program, David, my classmate and good friend, decided to join it right away.
“Badminton? How hard can it be?” I joked and said to David. On the first day, however, my confidence quickly disappeared. My serves were weak; my smashes (扣球) were off-target; my footwork was a mess. Meanwhile, David was a natural. His moves were smooth and powerful, and he improved quickly. Seeing my depressed expression, he encouraged me, “You’ll get better soon.” But I couldn’t help feeling frustrated. Coach Li noticed my struggles and said, “Badminton isn’t just about skill. It’s about persistence, focus, and teamwork. Keep trying, young guy!”
A few weeks later, Coach Li made an exciting announcement: There would be a badminton tournament in our school. David and I were paired as a doubles team. He was excited, but I was nervous. “What if I hold us back?” I wondered. During practice, Coach Li gathered us and said, “Remember, badminton isn’t about being perfect on your own. It’s about helping each other and thinking strategically.” His words stayed with me, but I still doubted whether we could succeed. Then, something unexpected happened. While cleaning up the storage room, I discovered an old badminton guidebook filled with clever strategies and tips. I started studying it at night, practicing moves like deceptive serves (假发球) and sharp net shots. “Maybe this can give us an edge,” I thought.
On tournament day, the gym was full of excitement. Our early matches were tough, but thanks to David’s skill and my newly learned strategies, we fought hard and won. I used unexpected drops and tricky shots from the book, surprising our opponents. Feeling amazed, David asked me, “Where did that come from?” I just smiled. Each victory boosted my confidence, but I knew the final challenge would be the hardest.
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 final match was against the school’s top players.

At the decisive moment, the tension reached its peak.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】The final match was against the school’s top players. At first, their smashes were fast, and their placement was precise. Soon, we were falling behind. I felt the pressure building. During a timeout, Coach Li reminded us, “Adapt to the situation. Work together and never give up.” David turned to me and said, “Use what you’ve learned. Let’s fight to the end.” I nodded. When the match continued, I used a trick serve from the guidebook — a high, spinning serve that suddenly dropped. The opponents hesitated, and we scored. This boosted our energy, and we started pushing back.
At the decisive moment, the tension reached its peak. Everyone in the gym was quiet as the shuttlecock flew back and forth. Suddenly, the opponents hit a high shot toward the back of the court, far past me. I ran and dove, barely hitting the shuttlecock. It bounced off the net and landed on their side. The crowd cheered as our opponents stood there, shocked. We won the championship! I couldn’t believe it. That moment taught me something I’ll never forget: Badminton is about more than skill. It’s about focus, determination, and never giving up, even when things seem impossible.
