I usually spent my time thinking about myself and taking care of my own needs. I let my older brother do most of the work around the house until he left for college. I let my Mom and Dad worry about our bills and problems while I read books, played, and lost myself in my own imagination. This didn’t change even when I went to college either. I studied hard but only to make my own life better. Even when I started to explore my faith and spirituality, it was only to increase my own happiness. I married after graduation and decided to start a family. Of course, I had no idea what hard knocks reality had in store for my selfish soul. Soon I found myself unemployed, deeply in debt, and with a new baby on the way. I found out that life has little sympathy for spoiled people. In fact, all of the struggles I was going through were beating the selfishness slowly out of me. Still, I didn’t give up on happiness. I knew that there must be a way to find it. I finally realized, however, that it had to include more than just my own needs, wants, and desires. The answer began to make itself clear one night shortly after my baby boy was born. I got a bottle and held him in my arms. As I was feeding him I looked down and saw his big, innocent, trusting eyes. I smiled and talked to him. Then he smiled and I could feel my heart growing, expanding with love. I felt such peace and joy. At that moment I had a hint of the truth: it is by growing our hearts with love that we find our happiness. Carolyn Arends wrote: "The more people you let into your heart, the bigger your heart gets.The more love you get, the more love you have to give. It just keeps growing." So, keep loving, keep living and keep caring. Keep growing your heart today, tomorrow, and always. 4. What do we know about the author from the first paragraph? A. He often helped his brother with housework. B. He studied hard for his family. C. He put his own needs above others’. D. He was concerned about his family. 5. Which of the following can replace the underlined words “hard knocks” in Paragraph 2? A. truth. B. hardships. C. love. D. fortune. 6. What can be inferred from the passage? A. The author loved kids. B. The author often fed his baby. C. The author realized the importance of happiness. D. When caring for his baby, the author got inspired. 7. Which can be the best title of the passage? A. Loving Others , a Way to Happiness B. The Elder One Grows, the More He Gets. C. Help Others , Help Oneself D. Keep Growing to Live a Happy Life C Scientists found what could be the oldest evidence of cooking at the edge of the ancient Lake Hula in Israel at the Gesher Benot Ya’aqov, according to a newly-published paper. The remains, especially fish teeth, were discovered near places where scientists also found signs of fire. Tests showed the teeth had been exposed to temperatures that were hot, but not super-hot. This suggested the fish were cooked slowly over a low heat, rather than being put right onto a fire. With all the evidence together, scientists concluded that these ancient humans had used fire for cooking some 780,000 years ago. That is much earlier than the next oldest evidence for cooking, about 170,000 years ago, which showed Stone Age humans ate burnt roots in South Africa. Scientists believe cooking started long before this, though physical evidence has been hard to come by —considering the importance of using fire to cook. Cooked food makes it easier for the body to digest and get more nutrients. When early humans figured out how to cook, they were able to get more energy, which they could use to fuel bigger brains. Based on how human ancestors’ bodies developed, scientists guess that cooking skills would have had to appear nearly 2 million years ago. Those first cooked meals were a far cry from today’s dinners. And at that time, humans started eating not just for fuel, but for their community. In a 2010 paper, scientists described the earliest evidence of a feast(盛宴), which was a specially prepared meal that brought people together for an event in a cave. This “first feast” came at an important turning point in human history, right as hunter-gatherers were starting to settle into more permanent living situations. Gathering for special meals may have been a way to build community and reduce tensions now that people lived closer to each other. Scientists believe ancient feasts served a lot of the same social uses that modern gatherings serve: People exchange information, make connections, or try to improve their position. 8. Which is probably the earliest evidence of cooking? A. The tools of cooking. B. The signs of fire. C. The leftover fish. D. The burnt roots. 9. What message is conveyed in paragraph 3? A. Food is key to keeping brains’ functioning. B. Using fire to cook is a universal practice. C. Our understanding of ancestors is limited. D. Cooking is the driving force for human evolution. 10. What do scientists say about ancient feasts? A. They mark important events. B. They have multiple functions. C. They differ from modern gatherings. D. They display excellent cooking skills. 11. Why does the author write this text? A. To inform readers of a new discovery. B. To explain why early humans started to cook. C. To present how cooking makes us together. D. To stress the importance of fire to human life. D People in long-term pain are often offered antidepressants, but a review has found little evidence to support using most such drugs in this way. It is estimated that about 1 in 5 people have ongoing pain, with a variety of causes and in various locations. However, treatment options are limited. While opioid-based medicines (阿片类药物) are effective for new-onset pain, they can be addictive when used long term. Anti-inflammatory drugs (抗炎药物) can treat pain, but can damage organs with extended use. This may be why some doctors offer antidepressants as treatment for long-term pain, even though the drugs generally aren’t licensed for such use. Some people with chronic (慢性的) pain are also depressed or anxious, so doctors could see the medicines as primarily helping with these conditions, but antidepressants are also thought to have a separate painkilling effect. The mechanism is unknown, but one idea is that it stems from antidepressants dampening inflammation, at least in animal tests. Ferreira and his colleagues conducted a review with a detailed breakdown of the existing evidence, making a thorough analysis of the outcomes of 156 randomized trials involving more than 25,000 participants. They looked at the effectiveness of eight types of antidepressant at treating 22 pain conditions. The team discovered there was no good evidence for the effectiveness of most of the drugs. Only one class showed evidence of effectiveness, but even this class reduced pain only modestly, by less than 10 points on a scale of 0 to 100. The analysis comes to different conclusions than a 2021 review by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), which said antidepressants were the only class of medicines that doctors should consider for chronic pain, although this should only be after discussing the potential benefits and harms. The difference in conclusions may be because the latest analysis considered each pain condition separately, says Ferreira. Cathy Stannard, who advised on the NICE guidelines, says the new review doesn’t mean antidepressants should be ruled out. “Some people will get a useful benefit and there’s no way of predicting who.” But there is unlikely to be any “magic bullet” for chronic pain, says Stannard. 12. What contributes to the use of antidepressants to treat long-term pain? A. They have a dramatic painkilling effect. B. They have gained approval for treating it. C. They are believed to possess no side effects. D. They are thought to be multifunctional drugs. 13. What does the underlined word “dampening” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Worsening. B. Stimulating. C. Relieving. D. Causing. 14. How did Ferreira and his team carry out the review? A. By analyzing the results of existing studies. B. By observing patients’ reactions to antidepressants. C. By conducting interviews with over 25, 000 participants. D. By repeating the trials of antidepressants on participants. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Antidepressants rarely ease pain B. The painkilling effect of antidepressants C. How to tackle long-term painful conditions D. Antidepressants: “magic bullets” for chronic pain 第二节：七选五 (共5小题；每小题2.5分,满分12.5分) As a way to connect the mind, body and spirit, now, yoga is practiced or celebrated all over the world by adults and teens. ____16____ How can yoga actually benefit children in the long run?

This year, I was determined to plan a perfect getaway. My research led me to The Manor, a grand, historic hotel. As I studied a local tourist brochure, I saw it listed the hotel’s main attractions — an award-winning restaurant and a grand lighthouse. Simple activities like walking coastal paths and searching for unique sea glass were also mentioned. For this special vacation, I focused only on what I considered the best experiences. A simple walk on the beach? We could do that anywhere. I wanted the lighthouse climb and the luxury of a fancy dinner. Just before we left, my father gave me a hug. “Remember,” he said softly, “we can’t control the circumstances, but we can always choose our attitude.” I thought of how he always managed to turn rainy days into opportunities for simple games, finding joy no matter what. I smiled, but confident in my mind that our trip would be so perfect that we would never need his wisdom. Unfortunately, our journey began with an unexpected storm. A steady, cold rain poured down so heavily that we could barely see the landscape outside our car. Arriving at the hotel, our hopes for an afternoon swim were greeted by a sign on the locked pool door: “Closed for Renovation (翻修)”. Our next thought, a drink at the hotel bar, was met with another sign: “Closed on Mondays”. Defeated, we went to bed early, pinning all our remaining hopes on visiting the lighthouse the next morning. The following day, the sky was still gray and cold, but at least the rain had softened. We drove to the lighthouse, our spirits lifting as we saw the grand structure rising before us. From the parking lot, we could see a small, unmarked path winding through the tall grass into the distance, but our focus was entirely on the lighthouse. “The view from the top will be amazing!” I shouted. I ran from the car to the gate, ready to start the climb. My heart sank as I read the large, metal sign posted there: CLOSED FOR RENOVATIONS. 注意：1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 Paragraph 1: I turned and looked at my husband in disbelief. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The path led to a silent beach. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 丰城九中2025--2026学年高二上学期日新班英语第一次段考试卷 命题人： 2025.10.11 （试卷：150分 考试时间：120分钟） 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） 请听下面5段对话，每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

A 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇夹叙夹议文，作者由一个自私的人成长为一个心中对他人有爱的人，也明白了“爱他人即幸福”的道理。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“I was selfish as a teenager. I usually spent my time thinking about myself and taking care of my own needs. I let my older brother do most of the work around the house until he left for college.”（我十几岁的时候很自私。我通常把时间花在考虑自己和照顾自己的需求上。在我哥哥去上大学之前，我让他做家里的大部分家务。）由此判断出，他把自己的需要看得比别人的重要。故选C项。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据下文“Soon I found myself unemployed, deeply in debt, and with a new baby on the way. I found out that life has little sympathy for spoiled people. In fact, all of the struggles I was going through were beating the selfishness slowly out of me”（很快我发现自己失业了，债台高筑，还有一个即将出生的孩子。我发现生活是不会同情被宠坏的人的。事实上，我所经历的所有挣扎都是在慢慢地把自私赶出我的身体）由此可知，作者不知道现实会给作者自私的灵魂带来怎样的苦难。由此判断出划线词的意思是“苦难”。故选B项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“As I was feeding him I looked down and saw his big, innocent, trusting eyes. I smiled and talked to him. Then he smiled and I could feel my heart growing, expanding with love. I felt such peace and joy. At that moment I had a hint of the truth: it is by growing our hearts with love that we find our happiness.”（当我喂它的时候，我往下看它，看到了它那天真、信任的大眼睛。我微笑着和他说话。然后他笑了，我感到我的心在成长，爱在膨胀。我感到如此的平静和快乐。那一刻，我恍然大悟:只有用爱培养我们的心灵，我们才能找到幸福。）由此判断出，在照顾他的孩子时，作者得到了灵感。故选D项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“The more people you let into your heart, the bigger your heart gets.The more love you get, the more love you have to give. It just keeps growing." So, keep loving, keep living and keep caring. Keep growing your heart today, tomorrow, and always.”（你能接纳更多的人，你的心就变得越宽广。你得到的爱越多，你给予的爱就越多。所以，继续去爱，继续去生活，继续去关心他人。无论是今天还是明天，永远保持你的心在成长。）以及结合文章主要讲了作者由一个自私的人成长为一个心中对他人有爱的人，也明白了“爱他人即幸福”的道理。所以短文的最佳标题为“爱他人即幸福”。故选A项。 C Scientists found what could be the oldest evidence of cooking at the edge of the ancient Lake Hula in Israel at the Gesher Benot Ya’aqov, according to a newly-published paper. The remains, especially fish teeth, were discovered near places where scientists also found signs of fire. Tests showed the teeth had been exposed to temperatures that were hot, but not super-hot. This suggested the fish were cooked slowly over a low heat, rather than being put right onto a fire. With all the evidence together, scientists concluded that these ancient humans had used fire for cooking some 780,000 years ago. That is much earlier than the next oldest evidence for cooking, about 170,000 years ago, which showed Stone Age humans ate burnt roots in South Africa. Scientists believe cooking started long before this, though physical evidence has been hard to come by —considering the importance of using fire to cook. Cooked food makes it easier for the body to digest and get more nutrients. When early humans figured out how to cook, they were able to get more energy, which they could use to fuel bigger brains. Based on how human ancestors’ bodies developed, scientists guess that cooking skills would have had to appear nearly 2 million years ago. Those first cooked meals were a far cry from today’s dinners. And at that time, humans started eating not just for fuel, but for their community. In a 2010 paper, scientists described the earliest evidence of a feast(盛宴), which was a specially prepared meal that brought people together for an event in a cave. This “first feast” came at an important turning point in human history, right as hunter-gatherers were starting to settle into more permanent living situations. Gathering for special meals may have been a way to build community and reduce tensions now that people lived closer to each other. Scientists believe ancient feasts served a lot of the same social uses that modern gatherings serve: People exchange information, make connections, or try to improve their position. 8. Which is probably the earliest evidence of cooking? A. The tools of cooking. B. The signs of fire. C. The leftover fish. D. The burnt roots. 9. What message is conveyed in paragraph 3? A. Food is key to keeping brains’ functioning. B. Using fire to cook is a universal practice. C. Our understanding of ancestors is limited. D. Cooking is the driving force for human evolution. 10. What do scientists say about ancient feasts? A. They mark important events. B. They have multiple functions. C. They differ from modern gatherings. D. They display excellent cooking skills. 11. Why does the author write this text? A. To inform readers of a new discovery. B. To explain why early humans started to cook. C. To present how cooking makes us together. D. To stress the importance of fire to human life. 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了科学家对有关人类烹饪的最早证据的新发现，文章介绍了这一发现的意义和科学家们提出的设想。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Scientists found what could be the oldest evidence of cooking at the edge of the ancient Lake Hula in Israel at the Gesher Benot Ya’aqov, according to a newly-published paper. The remains, especially fish teeth, were discovered near places where scientists also found signs of fire. Tests showed the teeth had been exposed to temperatures that were hot, but not super-hot. This suggested the fish were cooked slowly over a low heat, rather than being put right onto a fire.(根据一篇新发表的论文，科学家在以色列古湖呼拉湖的Gesher Benot Ya’aqov边缘发现了可能是最古老的烹饪证据。这些遗骸，尤其是鱼牙，是在科学家发现过火痕迹的地方附近发现的。测试表明，牙齿暴露在高温下，但不是超级热。这表明鱼是用小火慢慢煮的，而不是直接放在火上)”可知，科学家发现的人类做饭的最早证据可能是鱼的残留物。故选C。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Scientists believe cooking started long before this, though physical evidence has been hard to come by —considering the importance of using fire to cook. Cooked food makes it easier for the body to digest and get more nutrients. When early humans figured out how to cook, they were able to get more energy, which they could use to fuel bigger brains. Based on how human ancestors’ bodies developed, scientists guess that cooking skills would have had to appear nearly 2 million years ago.(科学家们认为，烹饪在这之前很久就开始了，尽管很难找到物证——考虑到用火做饭的重要性。煮熟的食物使身体更容易消化，并获得更多的营养。当早期人类学会如何烹饪时，他们能够获得更多的能量，这些能量可以用来为更大的大脑提供能量。根据人类祖先身体发育的情况，科学家猜测烹饪技术必须在近200万年前出现)”可推断，烹饪是人类进化的推动力。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Scientists believe ancient feasts served a lot of the same social uses that modern gatherings serve: People exchange information, make connections, or try to improve their position.(科学家们认为，古代的宴会与现代的聚会有很多相同的社会用途:人们交换信息，建立联系，或者试图提高他们的地位)”可知，古代宴会有许多功能。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Scientists found what could be the oldest evidence of cooking at the edge of the ancient Lake Hula in Israel at the Gesher Benot Ya’aqov, according to a newly-published paper.(根据一篇新发表的论文，科学家在以色列古湖呼拉湖的Gesher Benot Ya’aqov边缘发现了可能是最古老的烹饪证据)”结合本文重点介绍了科学家对有关人类最早做饭的证据的新发现。由此可知，作者写作本文意在告知读者新的发现，故选A。 D People in long-term pain are often offered antidepressants, but a review has found little evidence to support using most such drugs in this way. It is estimated that about 1 in 5 people have ongoing pain, with a variety of causes and in various locations. However, treatment options are limited. While opioid-based medicines (阿片类药物) are effective for new-onset pain, they can be addictive when used long term. Anti-inflammatory drugs (抗炎药物) can treat pain, but can damage organs with extended use. This may be why some doctors offer antidepressants as treatment for long-term pain, even though the drugs generally aren’t licensed for such use. Some people with chronic (慢性的) pain are also depressed or anxious, so doctors could see the medicines as primarily helping with these conditions, but antidepressants are also thought to have a separate painkilling effect. The mechanism is unknown, but one idea is that it stems from antidepressants dampening inflammation, at least in animal tests. Ferreira and his colleagues conducted a review with a detailed breakdown of the existing evidence, making a thorough analysis of the outcomes of 156 randomized trials involving more than 25,000 participants. They looked at the effectiveness of eight types of antidepressant at treating 22 pain conditions. The team discovered there was no good evidence for the effectiveness of most of the drugs. Only one class showed evidence of effectiveness, but even this class reduced pain only modestly, by less than 10 points on a scale of 0 to 100. The analysis comes to different conclusions than a 2021 review by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), which said antidepressants were the only class of medicines that doctors should consider for chronic pain, although this should only be after discussing the potential benefits and harms. The difference in conclusions may be because the latest analysis considered each pain condition separately, says Ferreira. Cathy Stannard, who advised on the NICE guidelines, says the new review doesn’t mean antidepressants should be ruled out. “Some people will get a useful benefit and there’s no way of predicting who.” But there is unlikely to be any “magic bullet” for chronic pain, says Stannard. 12. What contributes to the use of antidepressants to treat long-term pain? A. They have a dramatic painkilling effect. B. They have gained approval for treating it. C. They are believed to possess no side effects. D. They are thought to be multifunctional drugs. 13. What does the underlined word “dampening” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Worsening. B. Stimulating. C. Relieving. D. Causing. 14. How did Ferreira and his team carry out the review? A. By analyzing the results of existing studies. B. By observing patients’ reactions to antidepressants. C. By conducting interviews with over 25, 000 participants. D. By repeating the trials of antidepressants on participants. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Antidepressants rarely ease pain B. The painkilling effect of antidepressants C. How to tackle long-term painful conditions D. Antidepressants: “magic bullets” for chronic pain 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，文章主要说明了研究发现常用来治疗慢性疼痛的抗抑郁药物并无明显止痛功效，解释了研究开展的经过以及意义。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Some people with chronic (慢性的) pain are also depressed or anxious, so doctors could see the medicines as primarily helping with these conditions, but antidepressants are also thought to have a separate painkilling effect.(一些患有慢性疼痛的人也会感到抑郁或焦虑，因此医生可能认为这些药物主要是帮助治疗这些疾病，但抗抑郁药也被认为具有单独的止痛作用)”可知，使用抗抑郁药治疗长期疼痛的原因是被认为是多功能药物。故选D。 【13题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第三段“Some people with chronic (慢性的) pain are also depressed or anxious, so doctors could see the medicines as primarily helping with these conditions, but antidepressants are also thought to have a separate painkilling effect.(一些患有慢性疼痛的人也会感到抑郁或焦虑，因此医生可能认为这些药物主要是帮助治疗这些疾病，但抗抑郁药也被认为具有单独的止痛作用)”以及划线词上文“The mechanism is unknown, but one idea is that it stems from antidepressants”可知，其机制尚不清楚，但有一种观点认为，它源于抗抑郁药缓解炎症，至少在动物实验中是这样。“dampening”所在的这句话是对其止痛机制的一种猜测，即抗抑郁药物能够抑制缓解炎症，故划线词意思“缓解”。故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Ferreira and his colleagues conducted a review with a detailed breakdown of the existing evidence, making a thorough analysis of the outcomes of 156 randomized trials involving more than 25,000 participants.(费雷拉和他的同事们对现有证据进行了详细的分析，对156项随机试验的结果进行了彻底的分析，这些试验涉及25000多名参与者)”可知，Ferreira团队的研究方法是分析现有的实验结果，故选A。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“People in long-term pain are often offered antidepressants, but a review has found little evidence to support using most such drugs in this way.(长期疼痛的人通常会被提供抗抑郁药物，但一项研究发现，几乎没有证据支持以这种方式使用大多数此类药物)”结合文章主要说明了研究发现常用来治疗慢性疼痛的抗抑郁药物并无明显止痛功效，解释了研究开展的经过以及意义。故A选项“抗抑郁药很少能缓解疼痛”最符合文章标题。故选A。 第二节：七选五 (共5小题；每小题2.5分,满分12.5分) As a way to connect the mind, body and spirit, now, yoga is practiced or celebrated all over the world by adults and teens. ____16____ How can yoga actually benefit children in the long run?

The topic of whether high school graduates should take a gap year has sparked heated debate. Personally, I believe that a well-structured gap year can be highly beneficial, provided that it is used purposefully. There are several reasons why I support this choice. First, by engaging in internships or volunteer work, students can gain practical experience, which helps them make informed decisions about their future careers. Second, traveling or learning new skills during this period not only broadens their horizons but also enhances their adaptability. However, without clear goals, a gap year might lead to wasted time or even a loss of academic momentum. In conclusion, while a gap year offers valuable opportunities for growth, its success depends on careful planning and self-discipline.

This year, I was determined to plan a perfect getaway. My research led me to The Manor, a grand, historic hotel. As I studied a local tourist brochure, I saw it listed the hotel’s main attractions — an award-winning restaurant and a grand lighthouse. Simple activities like walking coastal paths and searching for unique sea glass were also mentioned. For this special vacation, I focused only on what I considered the best experiences. A simple walk on the beach? We could do that anywhere. I wanted the lighthouse climb and the luxury of a fancy dinner. Just before we left, my father gave me a hug. “Remember,” he said softly, “we can’t control the circumstances, but we can always choose our attitude.” I thought of how he always managed to turn rainy days into opportunities for simple games, finding joy no matter what. I smiled, but confident in my mind that our trip would be so perfect that we would never need his wisdom. Unfortunately, our journey began with an unexpected storm. A steady, cold rain poured down so heavily that we could barely see the landscape outside our car. Arriving at the hotel, our hopes for an afternoon swim were greeted by a sign on the locked pool door: “Closed for Renovation (翻修)”. Our next thought, a drink at the hotel bar, was met with another sign: “Closed on Mondays”. Defeated, we went to bed early, pinning all our remaining hopes on visiting the lighthouse the next morning. The following day, the sky was still gray and cold, but at least the rain had softened. We drove to the lighthouse, our spirits lifting as we saw the grand structure rising before us. From the parking lot, we could see a small, unmarked path winding through the tall grass into the distance, but our focus was entirely on the lighthouse. “The view from the top will be amazing!” I shouted. I ran from the car to the gate, ready to start the climb. My heart sank as I read the large, metal sign posted there: CLOSED FOR RENOVATIONS. 注意：1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 Paragraph 1: I turned and looked at my husband in disbelief. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The path led to a silent beach. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Paragraph I: I turned and looked at my husband in disbelief. The grand lighthouse stood inaccessible behind the metal sign. My shoulders sank, the sting of disappointment sharp and cold in the damp air. Seeing my disappointment, he gave me a warm smile and said, “The big attractions are closed, but our adventure isn’t over.” His calm voice reminded me of my father’s advice: we can always choose our attitude. At that moment, I made a choice. I would not let a few locked doors ruin our family vacation. Taking a deep breath, I nodded toward the small path we had noticed earlier. Paragraph 2: The path led to a silent beach. Instead of feeling disappointed by the gray weather, we took off our shoes and ran towards the waves. We had a simple walk on the beach. There we also found the colorful sea glass mentioned in the brochure. We spent the next hour like treasure hunters, laughing as we searched for the most beautiful pieces. We couldn’t change that our plans had failed, but we had changed our attitude. That simple choice gave us a more joyful and memorable day than any grand plan could have. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者计划了一次完美的假期，出发前父亲叮嘱作者虽然无法控制环境，但可以选择自己的态度，作者不以为然，然而度假时意外频发，到达酒店第一天计划游泳和去酒吧无果，第二天计划去看灯塔却看到因翻修而关闭的牌子。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我转过身，难以置信地看着我的丈夫。”可知，第一段可描写作者的失望，丈夫的回应让作者想起父亲的话，于是作者决定沿着小路去探险。 ②由第二段首句内容“这条小路通向寂静的海滩。”可知，第二段可描写作者沿着小路到达海滩后度过了愉快的时光。 2.续写线索：失望——丈夫回应——想起父亲的话——决定沿着小路探险——度过愉快的时光——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①深呼吸：take a deep breath/breathe deeply ②注意到：notice/spot ③寻找：search for/look for 情绪类 ①失望：feel disappointed/let down ②愉快的：joyful/enjoyable/pleasant 【点睛】[高分句型1] Taking a deep breath, I nodded toward the small path we had noticed earlier.(运用了现在分词作状语和省略关系词的定语从句) [高分句型2] We spent the next hour like treasure hunters, laughing as we searched for the most beautiful pieces.(运用了as引导的时间状语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
