B When Marguerite Richards posted a TikTok video about her father’s decade-old thriller novel, she was hoping to inspire a little interest. A few dozen new readers, maybe. As the first few positive comments started rolling in, she was pleased to have done something nice for a dad who definitely deserved it. She had no idea that, within days, millions of people would see her video, and her father’s book would rise to the top of Amazon’s Best Seller list. Lloyd Richards first published Stone Maidens in 2012. It’s a thriller about an FBI agent following a killer in Indiana and, by his daughter’s account, it’s quite attractive. However, his original release (出版) failed to drum up excitement. It’s a different world now, with social media making somebody and something rise to fame overnight. Richards, the daughter, decided to try her luck. “I saw how much time and effort and passion my dad put into his book. I know what a lovely storyteller he is,” she told CNN. “He never stopped writing, and he always stayed positive.” Whether it was the interesting thriller, or the efforts of a proud daughter, the story of Lloyd Richards and Stone Maidens struck a chord. Marguerite Richards posted the first TikTok about Stone Maidens about two weeks ago. It has since received 48 million views and numerous positive responses. After that, Richards posted more videos of her father, delighting in his unexpected success. “My dad wasn’t really sure what TikTok is, but he has been so pleased and grateful,” Richards says. The experience has breathed new life into a labor of love. Now, Lloyd Richards has more than 360,000 TikTok followers and a brand-new story to tell. He has plans for the future, too. 4. What initially motivated Marguerite Richards to post about her father’s book on TikTok? A. To help her father become an online influencer. B. To attract a modest number of new readers for the book. C. To introduce her father’s daily life on social media. D. To prove that older books could outsell new releases. 5. What do we know about Stone Maidens when it was first published? A. It immediately became a bestseller on Amazon. B. It was widely promoted on social media platforms. C. It failed to gain significant attention at the time. D. It received negative reviews from thriller readers. 6. Why did Lloyd Richards’ book suddenly become successful years later? A. His daughter’s TikTok video went viral unexpectedly. B. He rewrote the book to fit modern readers’ preferences. C. A famous celebrity recommended it on social media. D. The original publisher relaunched a marketing campaign. 7. How did Lloyd Richards feel about what his daughter had done for him? A. Puzzled but pleased B. Surprised and regretful C. Unexpected and shocked D. Delighted and thankful C You booked the Airbnb. You stepped away from work. Maybe you even left your laptop behind. But now it’s Monday, and you’re somehow more exhausted than before. If you’ve ever returned from a “restful” weekend still tired, you weren’t imagining it. Many high-achievers try to solve burnout with surface-level breaks — only to find themselves back at square one, but with unpacked bags and a backlog of emails. The problem isn’t your weekend. It’s what you’re carrying into it. Burnout isn’t just physical tiredness. It’s emotional exhaustion, decision fatigue (疲劳), mental overload, and a constant sense of “I should be doing more”. So if your day-to-day life feels like an endless to-do list, a weekend off — while lovely — isn’t going to change that. You’re not just tired. You’re overfunctioning. And a 48-hour break can’t undo a lifestyle that demands superhuman energy. So what can help? Name what kind of tired you are. Not all fatigue is solved by napping. Start by identifying if you’re emotionally, socially, or mentally tired. Give yourself permission to rest imperfectly. You need recovery that meets your actual needs — even if that means staying home or canceling several plans. Build micro-rest into your week. Stop saving rest for PTO (Paid Time Off). Reset with quiet meals, five-minute walks, or letting a task go undone. Tiny exits from busy mode add up. The real fix isn’t a better vacation — it’s a better baseline. You deserve a life that doesn’t require heroic recovery. Start by creating space for yourself daily, not just on the extra amount of time. Rest isn’t a reward — it’s a requirement for living well. 8. What is the primary function of the first paragraph? A. To criticize the modern work culture. B. To present a common experience about rest. C. To introduce several ways to relax on weekends. D. To describe possible problems during a journey. 9. What is suggested as an effective way to deal with fatigue? A. Canceling all the plans for a perfect rest. B. Saving up rest time for longer paid vacations. C. Taking short breaks during the working time. D. Planning lively weekend meals with friends. 10. What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in the last paragraph? A. Longer vacations are better for recovery. B. The solution lies in restructuring daily life. C. People should pursue heroic recovery. D. You could reward yourself with a better living space. 11. Which of the following would be the best title of the article? A. What makes an energized long vacation? B. Why do your weekends fail to recharge you? C What leads to your physical exhaustion? D. How can we plan a perfect restful weekend? D An experimental cleanup device called RemoveDEBRIS has successfully cast a net around a dummy (仿真的) satellite, imitating a technique that could one day collect spaceborne garbage. The test, which was carried out this week, is widely believed to be the first successful demonstration of space cleanup technology, experts told CNN. And it symbolizes an early step toward solving what has already been a critical issue: junk in space. Millions of pieces of junk are turning around in orbit, the result of 50 years of space travel and few regulations to keep space clean. At orbital speeds, even a small bit of paint crashing with a satellite can cause critical damage. Various companies have plans to send thousands of new satellites into low-Earth orbit, already the most crowded area. The RemoveDEBRIS experiment is run by a company and researchers led by the U. K.’s Surrey Space Center and includes Airbus, Airbus-owned Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd. and France’s ArianeGroup. Guglielmo Aglietti, the director of Surrey Space Center, said that an operational version of the RemoveDEBRlS technology would cast a net that remains fastened to the main satellite so the debris can be dragged out of orbit. It could target large pieces of junk, including dead satellites up to 10 meters long. The RemoveDEBRIS satellite will conduct a few more experiments in the coming months, including testing navigation features that could help guide the satellite to a specific piece of debris. Jonathan McDowell, an astrophysicist at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, said the success of this week’s experiment was exciting, but he cautioned against “over- publicizing” it. There are still enormous barriers to clear before operational cleanup tasks are underway, he said, and the most discouraging is figuring out how to fund such projects. Aglietti, the Surrey professor who helped lead the RemoveDEBRIS project, said “The challenge will lie in persuading the relevant authorities to sponsor these tasks.” Aglietti said he hopes RemoveDEBRIS will conduct a few cleanup tasks per year, targeting the largest pieces of junk in the most crowded orbits. 12. What is the use of the RemoveDEBRIS satellite? A. Demonstrating space technology. B. Imitating a developing technique. C Collecting wastes existing in space. D. Symbolizing great progress in space. 13. How does the RemoveDEBRlS satellite work? A. By throwing a net to take the junk from orbit. B. By fastening it to the main satellite tightly. C. By dragging satellites up to 10 meters long. D. By targeting large pieces of junk carefully. 14. What does the underlined word “sponsor” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Accomplish. B. Support. C. Oppose. D. Provide. 15. What’s the best title for the text? A. The RemoveDEBRIS Project Is Perfect B. How RemoveDEBRIS Is Invented in the Lab C. Why the RemoveDEBRIS Satellite Is Invented D. Satellite Collects Space Junk for the First Time 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Having a sense of humor means having the ability to let go and not take everything so seriously, and being able to laugh at life’s absurdities (荒谬).

My fourth-grade report wasn’t good, and “Needs Improvement” comments made me nervous and uneasy all the time. Although I worked very hard, I failed the final exam. Almost every time the teacher asked me to answer a question, my voice shook. But the moment Mr. Harrison —or “Mr. H”, as he insisted we call him — greeted us with a smile, my nerves disappeared gradually. “Welcome to the fifth grade! Take any seat you like,” he said with a warm voice. Young and energetic, he had a way of making even the shyest students feel at ease. I chose a desk near the front due to my nearsightedness, grateful for his approachable behaviour. Mr. H was an encouraging class and math teacher and he made learning exciting with his fun ideas and positive attitude. It did not matter whether you were the best or worst student in the class. What he did made you feel you were special. I remember the day when Mr. H announced, “Everyone, we have new students joining the class.” He was holding a cage with three tiny gerbils (沙鼠). Everyone shouted with joy. “They’re part of our family now,” he declared, and indeed, under his guidance, the classroom felt like one. Smiley faces were his trademark. He always put a smiley face on the chalkboard, homework and test papers. When I failed my first math quiz, he drew a smiley face beside my score and wrote, “Let’s figure this out together.” After class, he pulled me aside, “You’re smarter than you think,” he said. His words carried a quiet certainty that made me sit up straight. They weren’t empty praise—they were an invitation to see myself differently. “But we need to find a way that works for you,” he continued. And he meant it. 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。 He stayed late twice a week to help me with my math. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ By the end of the term, something unexpected happened. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 莆田第二十五中学2025-2026学年上学期第一次月考 高二英语 第一部分：听力(共两节，满分30分) 第一节：(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

A few dozen new readers, maybe. (当玛格丽特・理查兹在TikTok上发布一条关于她父亲那本已有十年历史的惊悚小说的视频时，她只是希望能激起一点兴趣。或许，能吸引几十个新读者吧。)”可知，玛格丽特・理查兹最初在TikTok上发布关于她父亲的书的视频，是希望能激发一点人们的兴趣，吸引几十位新读者。故选B项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“It’s a thriller about an FBI agent following a killer in Indiana and, by his daughter’s account, it’s quite attractive. However, his original release (出版) failed to drum up excitement. (这是一部惊悚小说，讲述了一名联邦调查局特工在印第安纳州追捕一名杀手的故事，据他女儿说，这本书相当吸引人。然而，该书最初出版时并未引起太多关注。)”可知，劳埃德・理查兹的《石中少女》在2012年首次出版时，没能引起人们的兴奋，即没有获得太多关注。故选C项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“She had no idea that, within days, millions of people would see her video, and her father’s book would rise to the top of Amazon’s Best Seller list. (她完全没想到，短短几天内，就有数百万网友看到了她的视频，而她父亲的书也一举登上了亚马逊畅销书排行榜的榜首。)”以及倒数第二段“Marguerite Richards posted the first TikTok about Stone Maidens about two weeks ago. It has since received 48 million views and numerous positive responses. (玛格丽特・理查兹大约两周前发布了第一条关于《石中少女》的TikTok视频。从那以后，这条视频已经获得了4800万次观看量和无数正面回应。)”可知，劳埃德・理查兹的书多年后突然成功是因为他女儿的TikTok视频意外走红，获得了数以百万计的观看量，从而让这本书登上了亚马逊畅销书榜首。故选A项。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段““My dad wasn’t really sure what TikTok is, but he has been so pleased and grateful,” Richards says. (“我爸爸其实不太清楚TikTok是什么，但他一直非常开心，也充满感激，”理查兹说。)”可知，劳埃德・理查兹对女儿为他所做的事情感到高兴和感激。故选D项。 C You booked the Airbnb. You stepped away from work. Maybe you even left your laptop behind. But now it’s Monday, and you’re somehow more exhausted than before. If you’ve ever returned from a “restful” weekend still tired, you weren’t imagining it. Many high-achievers try to solve burnout with surface-level breaks — only to find themselves back at square one, but with unpacked bags and a backlog of emails. The problem isn’t your weekend. It’s what you’re carrying into it. Burnout isn’t just physical tiredness. It’s emotional exhaustion, decision fatigue (疲劳), mental overload, and a constant sense of “I should be doing more”. So if your day-to-day life feels like an endless to-do list, a weekend off — while lovely — isn’t going to change that. You’re not just tired. You’re overfunctioning. And a 48-hour break can’t undo a lifestyle that demands superhuman energy. So what can help? Name what kind of tired you are. Not all fatigue is solved by napping. Start by identifying if you’re emotionally, socially, or mentally tired. Give yourself permission to rest imperfectly. You need recovery that meets your actual needs — even if that means staying home or canceling several plans. Build micro-rest into your week. Stop saving rest for PTO (Paid Time Off). Reset with quiet meals, five-minute walks, or letting a task go undone. Tiny exits from busy mode add up. The real fix isn’t a better vacation — it’s a better baseline. You deserve a life that doesn’t require heroic recovery. Start by creating space for yourself daily, not just on the extra amount of time. Rest isn’t a reward — it’s a requirement for living well. 8. What is the primary function of the first paragraph? A. To criticize the modern work culture. B. To present a common experience about rest. C. To introduce several ways to relax on weekends. D. To describe possible problems during a journey. 9. What is suggested as an effective way to deal with fatigue? A. Canceling all the plans for a perfect rest. B. Saving up rest time for longer paid vacations. C. Taking short breaks during the working time. D. Planning lively weekend meals with friends. 10. What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in the last paragraph? A. Longer vacations are better for recovery. B. The solution lies in restructuring daily life. C. People should pursue heroic recovery. D. You could reward yourself with a better living space. 11. Which of the following would be the best title of the article? A. What makes an energized long vacation? B. Why do your weekends fail to recharge you? C. What leads to your physical exhaustion? D. How can we plan a perfect restful weekend? 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章提到许多人周末“休息”后仍疲惫不堪的现象，并指出问题并非周末本身。解决的方法是通过调整日常生活模式，把短暂休息加入工作日。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“You booked the Airbnb. You stepped away from work. Maybe you even left your laptop behind. But now it’s Monday, and you’re somehow more exhausted than before. If you’ve ever returned from a “restful” weekend still tired, you weren’t imagining it. Many high-achievers try to solve burnout with surface-level breaks — only to find themselves back at square one, but with unpacked bags and a backlog of emails.(你订了爱彼迎。你离开了工作。也许你甚至忘了带笔记本电脑。但现在是星期一，你比以前更累了。如果你曾经从一个“宁静”的周末回来仍然很累，那不是你的想象。许多成功人士试图通过表面上的休息来解决倦怠问题，结果却发现自己又回到了起点，但却带着未拆包的行李和积压的电子邮件)”可知，第一段通过 “预订民宿、暂离工作、周末后却更疲惫” 的具体场景，描述了人们普遍经历的“看似休息却未恢复”的情况。由此推断，第一段的作用是描述一个关于休息的常见经历。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Give yourself permission to rest imperfectly. You need recovery that meets your actual needs — even if that means staying home or canceling several plans. Build micro-rest into your week.  (允许自己不完美地休息。你需要满足你实际需要的恢复——即使这意味着呆在家里或取消一些计划。在你的一周中安排一点小休息)”可知，在工作日安排一些短暂的休息是应对疲劳的有效方法。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The real fix isn’t a better vacation — it’s a better baseline. You deserve a life that doesn’t require heroic recovery. Start by creating space for yourself daily, not just on the extra amount of time. Rest isn’t a reward — it’s a requirement for living well.(真正的解决办法不是一个更好的假期，而是一个更好的基线。你应该过一种不需要英雄般的康复的生活。从每天为自己创造空间开始，而不仅仅是额外的时间。休息不是一种奖励——它是生活得好的必要条件)”推知，划线句子表明应对疲劳在于调整日常生活模式——每一天创造空间来进行短暂休息。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，并结合第一段“You booked the Airbnb. You stepped away from work. Maybe you even left your laptop behind. But now it’s Monday, and you’re somehow more exhausted than before. If you’ve ever returned from a “restful” weekend still tired, you weren’t imagining it. Many high-achievers try to solve burnout with surface-level breaks — only to find themselves back at square one, but with unpacked bags and a backlog of emails.(你订了爱彼迎。你离开了工作。也许你甚至忘了带笔记本电脑。但现在是星期一，你比以前更累了。如果你曾经从一个“宁静”的周末回来仍然很累，那不是你的想象。许多成功人士试图通过表面上的休息来解决倦怠问题，结果却发现自己又回到了起点，但却带着未打包的行李和积压的电子邮件)”和最后一段中“ The real fix isn’t a better vacation — it’s a better baseline.You deserve a life that doesn’t require heroic recovery. Start by creating space for yourself daily, not just on the extra amount of time. Rest isn’t a reward — it’s a requirement for living well.(真正的解决办法不是一个更好的假期，而是一个更好的基线。你应该过一种不需要英雄般的康复的生活。从每天为自己创造空间开始，而不仅仅是额外的时间。休息不是一种奖励——它是生活得好的必要条件)”可知，文章首段提到许多人周末“休息”后仍疲惫不堪的现象，后文指出解决的方法是通过调整日常生活模式，把短暂休息加入工作日。因此B项“为何你的周末无法为你充电？”可以作为最佳标题。故选B。 D An experimental cleanup device called RemoveDEBRIS has successfully cast a net around a dummy (仿真的) satellite, imitating a technique that could one day collect spaceborne garbage. The test, which was carried out this week, is widely believed to be the first successful demonstration of space cleanup technology, experts told CNN. And it symbolizes an early step toward solving what has already been a critical issue: junk in space. Millions of pieces of junk are turning around in orbit, the result of 50 years of space travel and few regulations to keep space clean. At orbital speeds, even a small bit of paint crashing with a satellite can cause critical damage. Various companies have plans to send thousands of new satellites into low-Earth orbit, already the most crowded area. The RemoveDEBRIS experiment is run by a company and researchers led by the U. K.’s Surrey Space Center and includes Airbus, Airbus-owned Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd. and France’s ArianeGroup. Guglielmo Aglietti, the director of Surrey Space Center, said that an operational version of the RemoveDEBRlS technology would cast a net that remains fastened to the main satellite so the debris can be dragged out of orbit. It could target large pieces of junk, including dead satellites up to 10 meters long. The RemoveDEBRIS satellite will conduct a few more experiments in the coming months, including testing navigation features that could help guide the satellite to a specific piece of debris. Jonathan McDowell, an astrophysicist at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, said the success of this week’s experiment was exciting, but he cautioned against “over- publicizing” it. There are still enormous barriers to clear before operational cleanup tasks are underway, he said, and the most discouraging is figuring out how to fund such projects. Aglietti, the Surrey professor who helped lead the RemoveDEBRIS project, said “The challenge will lie in persuading the relevant authorities to sponsor these tasks.” Aglietti said he hopes RemoveDEBRIS will conduct a few cleanup tasks per year, targeting the largest pieces of junk in the most crowded orbits. 12. What is the use of the RemoveDEBRIS satellite? A. Demonstrating space technology. B. Imitating a developing technique. C. Collecting wastes existing in space. D. Symbolizing great progress in space. 13. How does the RemoveDEBRlS satellite work? A. By throwing a net to take the junk from orbit. B. By fastening it to the main satellite tightly. C. By dragging satellites up to 10 meters long. D. By targeting large pieces of junk carefully. 14. What does the underlined word “sponsor” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Accomplish. B. Support. C. Oppose. D. Provide. 15. What’s the best title for the text? A. The RemoveDEBRIS Project Is Perfect B. How RemoveDEBRIS Is Invented in the Lab C. Why the RemoveDEBRIS Satellite Is Invented D. Satellite Collects Space Junk for the First Time 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述的是“卫星首次收集太空垃圾。”一种名为“清除碎片”(remove)的实验清理设备成功地在一颗虚拟卫星周围撒网，模仿一种有朝一日可能收集太空垃圾的技术。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中imitating a technique that could one day collect spaceborne garbage.“模仿一种有一天可以收集太空垃圾的技术。”可知，the RemoveDEBRIS卫星的用途是收集太空中存在的废物。故选C。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段中 ……an operational version of the RemoveDEBRlS technology would cast a net that remains fastened to the main satellite so the debris can be dragged out of orbit. It could target large pieces of junk, including dead satellites up to 10 meters long.“该公司表示，一种操作性版本的RemoveDEBRlS技术将会在主卫星上撒网，这样碎片就可以被拖出轨道。它可以瞄准大块的垃圾，包括长达10米的报废卫星。”可知，RemoveDEBRlS卫星是通过撒网把垃圾带离轨道。故选A。 【14题详解】 词义猜测题。根据最后一段中Aglietti said he hopes RemoveDEBRIS will conduct a few cleanup tasks per year, targeting the largest pieces of junk in the most crowded orbits.“Aglietti说，他希望清理碎片的工作每年能进行几次，目标是收集最拥挤轨道上最大的垃圾碎片。”由此推知，“挑战在于说服有关当局赞助这些任务。”可知，划线词的意思是“支持”。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段中The test, which was carried out this week, is widely believed to be the first successful demonstration of space cleanup technology, experts told CNN. And it symbolizes an early step toward solving what has already been a critical issue: junk in space.“专家告诉CNN，本周进行的这次测试被广泛认为是太空清洁技术的首次成功演示。它象征着解决太空垃圾这一关键问题的第一步。”可知，本文主题是“卫星首次收集太空垃圾”。 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Having a sense of humor means having the ability to let go and not take everything so seriously, and being able to laugh at life’s absurdities (荒谬).

While money can meet basic needs and provide comfort, true happiness comes from non-material sources. First, relationships and love bring deeper joy that money cannot buy. A warm family or sincere friendship often makes us happier than wealth alone. Moreover, pursuing passions and helping others create lasting fulfillment. For example, volunteering or enjoying hobbies fills life with meaning beyond material gains. However, lacking basic money causes stress, showing that some money is necessary — but endless wealth isn’t the key to happiness. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于开放性作文。要求考生用英语回帖，对“Does More Money Equal More Happiness?”这一话题进行讨论。 【详解】1.词汇积累 必然地：necessarily→inevitably 幸福：happiness→well-being 提供：provide→supply 真诚的：sincere→genuine 2.句式拓展 同义句替换 原句：While money can meet basic needs and provide comfort, true happiness comes from non-material sources. 拓展句：Money can satisfy basic needs and provide comfort, but true happiness comes from non-material sources. 【点睛】【高分句型1】First, relationships and love bring deeper joy that money cannot buy.

My fourth-grade report wasn’t good, and “Needs Improvement” comments made me nervous and uneasy all the time. Although I worked very hard, I failed the final exam. Almost every time the teacher asked me to answer a question, my voice shook. But the moment Mr. Harrison —or “Mr. H”, as he insisted we call him — greeted us with a smile, my nerves disappeared gradually. “Welcome to the fifth grade! Take any seat you like,” he said with a warm voice. Young and energetic, he had a way of making even the shyest students feel at ease. I chose a desk near the front due to my nearsightedness, grateful for his approachable behaviour. Mr. H was an encouraging class and math teacher and he made learning exciting with his fun ideas and positive attitude. It did not matter whether you were the best or worst student in the class. What he did made you feel you were special. I remember the day when Mr. H announced, “Everyone, we have new students joining the class.” He was holding a cage with three tiny gerbils (沙鼠). Everyone shouted with joy. “They’re part of our family now,” he declared, and indeed, under his guidance, the classroom felt like one. Smiley faces were his trademark. He always put a smiley face on the chalkboard, homework and test papers. When I failed my first math quiz, he drew a smiley face beside my score and wrote, “Let’s figure this out together.” After class, he pulled me aside, “You’re smarter than you think,” he said. His words carried a quiet certainty that made me sit up straight. They weren’t empty praise—they were an invitation to see myself differently. “But we need to find a way that works for you,” he continued. And he meant it. 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。 He stayed late twice a week to help me with my math. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ By the end of the term, something unexpected happened. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: He stayed late twice a week to help me with my math. Every Tuesday and Thursday after school our empty classroom became a laboratory of learning where mistakes weren’t failures, but clues to solving the puzzles. He broke down maths problems into stories. His creative teaching way and encouraging words made me realize I wasn’t bad at school and that I just needed a guiding way. Slowly, my Ds became Cs, and then Bs. But more than grades, the way he celebrated tiny victories — smiley faces on my homework — gave me confidence. By the end of the term, something unexpected happened. I raised my hand in class without hesitation for the first time. When Mr. H asked me to answer a question, my voice didn’t shake. During a terrifying test, I got an A+. I realized I’d stopped checking for “Needs Improvement” comments — not because they’d disappeared, but because I finally saw my own potential under the guidance of Mr. H. I was so grateful to Mr. H, whose cheerful, positive and smiley faces could really make a difference in other people’s lives. 【解析】 【导语】本文以作者五年级的学习经历为线索，讲述了作者因四年级成绩不佳、性格内向而紧张不安，新老师哈里森先生（H先生）以温暖亲切的态度让作者放松，他教学有趣且鼓励学生，在作者数学小测失败后，不仅给予鼓励，还提出要帮作者找到适合的学习方法的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ① 由第一段首句内容“他每周两次留下来帮我补习数学，直到很晚。”可知，第一段可描写H先生每周两次课后留下帮作者补数学，将难题编成故事，用有趣的教学方式让作者进步，作者的成绩从D提升到B，更重要的是收获了自信的经过。 ② 由第二段首句内容“到学期末，意想不到的事情发生了。”可知，第二段可描写学期末作者不再犹豫举手回答问题，声音也不发抖了，数学考试还得了A+，作者意识到自己不再关注“需要改进”的评价，而是看到了自身潜力，感激H先生带来的积极改变的情景。 2 续写线索：课后补数学——有趣教学——成绩提升——收获自信——主动举手——考得好成绩——发现潜力——感激老师 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①举手：raise one’s hand/put up one’s hand ②回答：answer /reply to ③颤抖：shake/tremble 情绪类 ①自信：confidence/self-assurance ②感激的：grateful/thankful 【点睛】[高分句型1] Every Tuesday and Thursday after school, our empty classroom became a laboratory of learning where mistakes weren’t failures, but clues to solving the puzzles.（运用了关系副词where引导定语从句） [高分句型2] I realized I’d stopped checking for “Needs Improvement” comments — not because they’d disappeared, but because I finally saw my own potential under the guidance of Mr. H.（运用了两个because引导原因状语从句） [高分句型3] I was so grateful to Mr. H, whose cheerful, positive and smiley faces could really make a difference in other people’s lives.（运用了关系代词whose引导非限制性定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
