He wanted Miles to be his guest. That evening, not only did Miles sit in the front row, but he and Garth also had a private meeting after the performance.”可知，大约6个月后，加斯将在堪萨斯城演出，他请我们的工作人员帮助他与家人取得联系。他想让迈尔斯做他的客人。那天晚上，迈尔斯不仅坐在前排，而且在演出结束后，他和加斯还单独见了一面。在了解了Miles的故事后，Garth Brooks不仅邀请了他来参加自己的演唱会，而且还单独见了一面。由此推知，Garth Brooks是善良的并且乐于助人的。故选C。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“Although Miles would receive many more treatments after that special evening, his smile greeted us with every following visit. The face of a sick boy was changed by the joy of a stranger.”可知，虽然迈尔斯在那个特别夜晚之后还会接受更多的治疗，但他每次来访都用微笑迎接我们。一个生病的男孩的脸被一个陌生人的快乐改变了。由此可知，文章主要讲述了一位陌生人的善良帮助了一个生病的小男孩。故选B。 C A Norwegian company has created what it calls the world’s first zero-emission(排放), autonomous cargo ship(货船). Developed by chemical company Yara International, the ship was designed to reduce emissions of pollutants and greenhouse gases, and move goods away from roads to the sea. The shipping industry accounts for between 2.5% and 3% of global greenhouse gas emissions, according to the International Maritime Organization. Nearly all of Norway’s electricity is generated by hydroelectric power, which is generally considered to have much lower carbon emissions than burning fossil fuels, despite the fact that it still produces greenhouse gases. Capable of carrying 103 containers and with a top speed of 13 knots, it will use a 7 MWh battery, with about a thousand times the capacity of one electrical car. The ship will be charged near the port before sailing to container harbors along the coast and then back again, replacing 40,000 truck journeys a year. As well as providing a greener option compared to conventional cargo ships, there is no crewman, which means it will be more cost-effective to operate. Initially, loading and unloading the ship will require humans, but gradually, all loading, discharging, and some other operations will also be eventually operated using autonomous technology. That will involve developing autonomous cranes(起重机) and carriers, which are the vehicles that place containers onto ships. According to researchers, fully autonomous ships are the future. But there are many challenges to overcome before autonomous ships can be used for commercial long sea journeys. Navigating traffic in large ports could be a major barrier. Without a crew aboard to carry out maintenance checks, autonomous ships would need built-in self-diagnosing systems with the ability to detect and fix problems, or call for human assistance. Although Yara International has no plans to add more autonomous ships to its operations, we may see more elements of AI technology used on commercial ships in the future. Elements are already being used in shipping today when it comes to the voyage and we’ll see more partly autonomous elements added. 8. What’s the good news about the new ship? A. It’s conventionally designed. B. It has been fully marketed. C. It’s environmentally friendly. D. It is luxuriously equipped. 9. What plays a critical role in the ship’s successful operation? A. The autonomous carriers. B. The latest navigating traffic. C. The burning of fossil fuels. D. The massive battery capacity. 10. What can we learn from paragraphs 4-6? A. Researchers are pessimistic about its future. B. The new ship isn’t completely autonomous yet. C. A lot more such ships will be in operation soon. D. No human labor is needed to maintain the ship. 11. What is the author’s attitude to technology being applied to shipping? A. Favorable. B. Reserved. C. Suspicious. D. Disapproving. 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。主要介绍了世界上第一艘零排放的自动货运船。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“A Norwegian company has created what it calls the world’s first zero-emission, autonomous cargo ship. Developed by chemical company Yara International, the ship was designed to reduce emissions of pollutants and greenhouse gases, and move goods away from roads to the sea.(一家挪威公司创造了世界上第一艘零排放的自动货运船。该船由化学公司雅拉国际(Yara International)开发，旨在减少污染物和温室气体的排放，并将货物从公路转移到海上)”可知，新船旨在减少污染物和温室气体的排放，是环保的。故选C项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Capable of carrying 103 containers and with a top speed of 13 knots, it will use a 7 MWh battery, with about a thousand times the capacity of one electrical car.(它能够携带103个集装箱，最高航速为13节，将使用7兆瓦时的电池，容量约为一辆电动汽车的1000倍)”可推知，在这艘船的成功运作中，之所以是零排放，是因为采用的纯电力动力，所以巨大的电池容量起着至关重要的作用。故选D项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“As well as providing a greener option compared to conventional cargo ships, there is no crewman, which means it will be more cost-effective to operate. Initially, loading and unloading the ship will require humans, but gradually, all loading, discharging, and some other operations will also be eventually operated using autonomous technology.(与传统货船相比，它提供了一个更环保的选择，没有船员，这意味着它将更具成本效益。最初，船上的装卸将需要人工操作，但逐渐地，所有装卸和其他一些操作最终也将使用自主技术进行操作)”以及第五段“According to researchers, fully autonomous ships are the future. But there are many challenges to overcome before autonomous ships can be used for commercial long sea journeys.(根据研究人员的说法，完全自主的船只是未来。但在自动驾驶船舶用于商业长途海上旅行之前，还有许多挑战需要克服)”以及第六段“Without a crew aboard to carry out maintenance checks, autonomous ships would need built-in self-diagnosing systems with the ability to detect and fix problems, or call for human assistance.(在没有船员上船进行维护检查的情况下，自动驾驶船舶将需要内置的自我诊断系统，该系统具有检测和解决问题的能力，或者需要人工协助)”可知，从第4-6段我们可以学到这艘新船还不是完全自主的。故选B项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Although Yara International has no plans to add more autonomous ships to its operations, we may see more elements of AI technology used on commercial ships in the future. Elements are already being used in shipping today when it comes to the voyage and we’ll see more partly autonomous elements added.(虽然Yara International没有计划在其运营中增加更多的自动驾驶船舶，但我们可能会在未来看到更多的人工智能技术元素用于商业船舶。在今天的航行中，我们已经在航运中使用了一些元素，我们将看到更多的部分自主元素被添加进来)”可推知，作者对人工智能技术元素用于商业船舶的态度，是支持的。故选A项。 D It’s reported that the number of monarch butterflies (帝王斑蝶) or monarchs spending the winter in the western United States has dropped to its second-lowest mark in nearly 30 years. Monarch butterflies are known for their clear orange-and-black markings, living across North America. Monarchs in the eastern United States spend the winter in Mexico. Monarchs in the west of the Rocky Mountains usually spend the winter along the California coast. The Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation has been counting western overwinter populations in the western United States for the last 28 years. The highest number recorded was 1.2 million in 1997. It counted just 9,119 monarchs in 2024, a decrease of 96 percent from 233,394 in 2023. The total was the second lowest since the survey began in 1997. The record-low count was 1,901 monarchs in 2020. The survey noted that a place in Santa Barbara that saw 33,200 monarchs last winter had only 198 this year. It remains unknown what caused such a change in the western population in just one year. Biologist Emma Pelton said, “Monarchs suffer when the temperature rises to 37.7℃ and any temperatures above 42.2℃ will kill them. The western states’ temperatures in many areas well past 37.7℃, some reportedly reaching a record 51.1℃.” Another threat is the supply of milkweed, a plant monarchs feed on. Milkweed has been disappearing in recent years because of dry weather, wildfires, urban development, and pesticides (杀虫剂) on the remaining plants. According to Pelton, it was too early to tell what long-term effect the great change might have on the overall western monarchs population. “This is bad news,” Pelton said of the 2024 population drop. “But we have seen incredible recovery. This doesn’t mean we’re not going to have western monarchs.” After a low point of 1,901 monarchs in 2020, the population recovered to 247,246 monarchs the following year, an increase of nearly 13,000 percent. The year after that the survey recorded 335,479 monarchs. The US plans to list monarchs as threatened to call for conservation. 12. What is the author’s purpose in writing paragraph 2? A. To lead in the topic of the text. B. To offer background information. C. To discuss the cause of the problem. D. To offer the evidence for the report. 13. What can we know from paragraph 3 about western overwinter monarchs? A. Their populations were the second lowest in 2020. B. They preferred to spend winter in Santa Barbara in 2023. C. They were least seen in the western United States in 1997. D. Their populations experienced a rapid decrease in 2024. 14. Which word can best describe the western monarchs’ future? A. Unclear. B. Unchangeable. C. Controllable. D. Hopeless. 15. What can be the best title for the text? A. Climate Change: Threats to Monarchs B. Monarch Butterflies: a Story of Recovery C. Western Monarchs Have Just Hit Near-Record Low D. Conservation Efforts in Saving Monarch Butterflies 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道，主要报道了美国西部帝王斑蝶数量接近历史最低点的情况。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Monarch butterflies are known for their clear orange-and-black markings, living across North America. Monarchs in the eastern United States spend the winter in Mexico. Monarchs in the west of the Rocky Mountains usually spend the winter along the California coast.(帝王斑蝶以其清晰的橙色和黑色斑纹而闻名，生活在北美各地。美国东部的帝王斑蝶在墨西哥过冬。落基山脉西部的帝王斑蝶通常在加利福尼亚海岸过冬。)”可知，作者写第二段的目的是提供背景资料。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“It counted just 9,119 monarchs in 2024, a decrease of 96 percent from 233,394 in 2023.(据统计，2024年只有9119只帝王斑蝶，比2023年的233394只减少了96%。)”可知，从第三段我们可以知道关于西部越冬帝王斑蝶的数量在2024年急剧减少。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“According to Pelton, it was too early to tell what long-term effect the great change might have on the overall western monarchs population.(根据Pelton的说法，现在判断这种巨大变化对整个西部帝王斑蝶种群的长期影响还为时过早。)”可知，西部帝王斑蝶的未来是不清楚的，故选A。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“It’s reported that the number of monarch butterflies (帝王斑蝶) or monarchs spending the winter in the western United States has dropped to its second-lowest mark in nearly 30 years.(据报道，在美国西部过冬的帝王斑蝶的数量已经下降到近30年来的第二低水平。)”可知，本文主要讲的是美国西部帝王斑蝶数量接近历史最低点的情况，因此最好的标题是C选项“Western Monarchs Have Just Hit Near-Record Low(西部帝王斑蝶刚刚创下历史新低)”。故选C。 第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Friendship is a very important human relationship and everyone needs good friends.

Such changes often leave us without a friend.(但是在我们的生活中也有这样的时候，比如我们最近搬到了一个新的城镇，或者换了学校或工作。这样的变化常常使我们失去朋友)”可知，有时生活中的 变化会使我们失去朋友。空格处应该描述失去朋友后应该再交朋友的情况，结合下文“but for many of us, the process is difficult and requires courage. Below are some helpful suggestions on how to make and keep friends.(但对我们中的许多人来说，这个过程是困难的，需要勇气。下面是一些关于如何交朋友和保持友谊的有用建议)”可知空格处需要解释“这个过程”是什么，且结合but可知空格处叙述内容与“困难的，需要勇气”相反，E选项“对有些人来说，结交新朋友很容易”符合题意。故选E。 【17题详解】 根据设空上句“Starting a conversation is the second most important step in making new friends.(开始交谈是结交新朋友的第二重要步骤)”提到启动对话是交朋友的第二重要步骤，结合下文“You can always start the conversation.(你可以随时开始谈话)”可知，不要等着别人和你说话，你要主动和别人说话。选项C“不要等着别人跟你说话。”正好符合交友时要主动的态度。故选C。 【18题详解】 空格处是本段的小标题，根据设空下句“Choosing friends with common interests is important in building friendship as these interests always bring you and your friend together(选择有共同兴趣的朋友对于建立友谊很重要，因为这些兴趣总是把你和你的朋友联系在一起)”可知，此段强调与兴趣相同的人交友，选项B“一起做事情”符合题意，强调和你的朋友一起做事能有效帮助增进彼此的关系。故选B。 【19题详解】 根据设空上文“It is a good thing to stay in touch. However, try not to press your new friend with calls, messages or visits as this would likely wear him or her out and finally you may lose your friend.(保持联系是件好事。然而，尽量不要给你的新朋友打电话、发信息或拜访，因为这可能会让他或她精疲力竭，最终你可能会失去你的朋友)”和下文“The best friendships are the ones that grow naturally.(最好的友谊是自然成长的)”可知，本段强调不应该过于逼迫新朋友，应该给他们时间适应，你们的关系会自然发展，选项G“所以你需要给你的朋友时间来回应你”与前后文吻合，要慢慢地来不要急，要给朋友考虑的时间。故选G。 【20题详解】 结合小标题“Enjoy your friendship(享受你的友谊)”和设空下句“Try not to change them from who they are to what you want them to be(试着不要改变他们，让他们变成你想要的样子)”可知，本段描述的是欣赏朋友原本的样子，不改变他们。选项D“尽量不要挑朋友的毛病”正是享受友谊的一种体现，可以引出下文不要试图改变朋友。故选D。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 After my diagnosis (诊断) with a cancer, I loved the ____21____ of having something new and green around.

Among all the famous figures in Chinese history, the one that attracts me most is Su Shi. Su Shi, also known as Su Dongpo, is a writer, poet, and politician in Song Dynasty. Born to a family with an extreme talent in literature, he wrote thousands of delicate poems, and even started a new genre.

Nonetheless, whatever hardship he was faced with, he managed to overcome it, leaving us with the legendary pieces. In my childhood, he showed me the beauty of poems, and enhanced my interest in literature. But as time goes, I start to realize that his influence on me is beyond literature. In the face of frustrations, he never compromised. Instead, he always kept his cool and optimistic attitude.

He decided to do something about it and raise funds to help the cat. Now, that cat is much better and has a brand new owner, all thanks to Sutter’s hard work and clever thinking. Online, Sutter came across a story posted by his local animal shelter. The BC SPCA explained that the cat — which was named Hazel by shelter staff — had been found at the transfer station in Anahim Lake, about fourhours west of Sutter’s home. A transfer station is a place where garbage and other waste are sorted. Shelter staff said Hazel was looking for food there. They later discovered that the back part of it was injured. The head of her femur (股骨) was broken and died — meaning the death of cells in some part of the body — had set in, so Hazel would need surgery to get better. SPCA staff put out a call to the community to raise funds for it, and that’s when Sutter got to work. Sutter thought up a good idea: making use of the power of cinnamon buns (肉桂面包). He knew if there was anything that could get community members to empty their pockets, it would be this sweet treat: cinnamon buns. He and his mum, Leslie Rowse, got to workbaking, and his mum posted about Sutter’s efforts on a social media page for his local community. Around 15 dozen (or 180) cinnamon buns later, Sutter had raised $850. His mum dropped off the money at the shelter, and Hazel was able to start her surgeries. Following Hazel’s surgeries and several days of recovery, Sutter’s mum was ready to share some good news. Sutter’s mum told Sutter that Hazel had a new owner. She asked him to guess who that owner was. “I guessed us! And I was right,” said Sutter. 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。 They decided to pick up Hazel on weekend. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Since adopting Hazel, Sutter has made a lot to improve her condition. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: They decided to pick up Hazel on weekend. That was a dream which came true for Sutter, who has been asking for a cat since he was really little. On Saturday morning, Sutter got up very early, earlier than he does in weekdays. The family had breakfast quickly and they drove to the local animal shelter. When Sutter saw Hazel, it was a little shy and looked weak. Sutter touched the head of Hazel softly and it looked as if Hazel had accepted the new kind owner completely. Since adopting Hazel,Sutter has made a lot to improve her condition. He prepared many kinds of nutritious foods for Hazel carefully. What’s more, he helped Hazel walk little by little and accompanied it as much as possible to make sure it enjoyed itself. After weeks of careful care, it recovered much from her injuries.The BC SPCA thanked Sutter for the “sweet” fundraiser idea and helping Hazel recover. “We hope she will regain full jumping and running abilities within the next months,” said Sutter’s mum. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Sutter从网上得知一只小猫Hazel受伤，需要手术，他和妈妈通过做肉桂面包这种“甜蜜”的筹款办法，筹到资金送到动物救济站。后来Sutter收养了小猫，实现了他儿时的梦想。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“他们决定周末去接哈泽尔。”可知，第一段可描写Sutter要去收养小猫的激动心情以及见到小猫后的反映。 ②由第二段首句内容“自从收养Hazel以来，它的病情得到了很大改善。”可知，第二段可描写Hazel被收养后的情况。 2.续写线索：决定接——激动——见面——状况改善——感谢 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①陪伴它： accompany it/keep it company ②玩得开心：enjoy itself /have fun ③重新获得：regain /restore 情绪类 ①.感谢：showing one’s appreciation/show one’s gratitude/be grateful ②小心地：carefully /with great care 【点睛】 [高分句型1]Sutter touched the head of Hazel softly and it looked as if Hazel had accepted the new kind owner completely.（由连接词as if引导的方式状语从句） [高分句型2] What’s more, he helped Hazel walk little by little and accompanied it as much as possible to make sure it enjoyed itself.（运用了动词不定式作目的状语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年度上学期十月份高二月考试卷 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。听完每段对话后，你将有10秒钟的时间回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

As it turned out, the boy, Miles and his mom were returning to their home in Kansas City. Miles has had some health problems. Though he had received more than thirty operations in a Jewish Hospital in New York, he would be back for more. Miles enjoyed spending his time in our VIP lounge looking at the entire wall filled with the pictures of many celebrities (名人) who often came to our office. We soon added Miles' picture to the wall among those celebrities. Among the celebrities, Miles like the country singer Garth Brooks best. Miles would just sit and stare at Garth's picture, One day, Mr. Brooks was waiting in the lounge for his flight. As he looked at the collection of photographs, Garth asked about the youngster with the big smile. We told him about Miles. We also told him how much Miles loved and respected (尊重) him. He nodded and left. About six months later, Garth was going to be performing in Kansas City and he asked our workers to help him get in touch with the family. He wanted Miles to be his guest. That evening, not only did Miles sit in the front row, but he and Garth also had a private meeting after the performance.

Importance of Good Service B. Kindness from Strangers C. A Serious Health Problem D. A Helpless Mother C A Norwegian company has created what it calls the world’s first zero-emission(排放), autonomous cargo ship(货船). Developed by chemical company Yara International, the ship was designed to reduce emissions of pollutants and greenhouse gases, and move goods away from roads to the sea. The shipping industry accounts for between 2.5% and 3% of global greenhouse gas emissions, according to the International Maritime Organization. Nearly all of Norway’s electricity is generated by hydroelectric power, which is generally considered to have much lower carbon emissions than burning fossil fuels, despite the fact that it still produces greenhouse gases. Capable of carrying 103 containers and with a top speed of 13 knots, it will use a 7 MWh battery, with about a thousand times the capacity of one electrical car. The ship will be charged near the port before sailing to container harbors along the coast and then back again, replacing 40,000 truck journeys a year. As well as providing a greener option compared to conventional cargo ships, there is no crewman, which means it will be more cost-effective to operate. Initially, loading and unloading the ship will require humans, but gradually, all loading, discharging, and some other operations will also be eventually operated using autonomous technology. That will involve developing autonomous cranes(起重机) and carriers, which are the vehicles that place containers onto ships. According to researchers, fully autonomous ships are the future. But there are many challenges to overcome before autonomous ships can be used for commercial long sea journeys. Navigating traffic in large ports could be a major barrier. Without a crew aboard to carry out maintenance checks, autonomous ships would need built-in self-diagnosing systems with the ability to detect and fix problems, or call for human assistance. Although Yara International has no plans to add more autonomous ships to its operations, we may see more elements of AI technology used on commercial ships in the future. Elements are already being used in shipping today when it comes to the voyage and we’ll see more partly autonomous elements added. 8. What’s the good news about the new ship? A. It’s conventionally designed. B. It has been fully marketed. C. It’s environmentally friendly. D. It is luxuriously equipped. 9. What plays a critical role in the ship’s successful operation? A. The autonomous carriers. B. The latest navigating traffic. C. The burning of fossil fuels. D. The massive battery capacity. 10. What can we learn from paragraphs 4-6? A. Researchers are pessimistic about its future. B. The new ship isn’t completely autonomous yet. C. A lot more such ships will be in operation soon. D. No human labor is needed to maintain the ship. 11. What is the author’s attitude to technology being applied to shipping? A. Favorable. B. Reserved. C. Suspicious. D. Disapproving. D It’s reported that the number of monarch butterflies (帝王斑蝶) or monarchs spending the winter in the western United States has dropped to its second-lowest mark in nearly 30 years. Monarch butterflies are known for their clear orange-and-black markings, living across North America. Monarchs in the eastern United States spend the winter in Mexico. Monarchs in the west of the Rocky Mountains usually spend the winter along the California coast. The Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation has been counting western overwinter populations in the western United States for the last 28 years. The highest number recorded was 1.2 million in 1997. It counted just 9,119 monarchs in 2024, a decrease of 96 percent from 233,394 in 2023. The total was the second lowest since the survey began in 1997. The record-low count was 1,901 monarchs in 2020. The survey noted that a place in Santa Barbara that saw 33,200 monarchs last winter had only 198 this year. It remains unknown what caused such a change in the western population in just one year. Biologist Emma Pelton said, “Monarchs suffer when the temperature rises to 37.7℃ and any temperatures above 42.2℃ will kill them. The western states’ temperatures in many areas well past 37.7℃, some reportedly reaching a record 51.1℃.” Another threat is the supply of milkweed, a plant monarchs feed on. Milkweed has been disappearing in recent years because of dry weather, wildfires, urban development, and pesticides (杀虫剂) on the remaining plants. According to Pelton it was too early to tell what long-term effect the great change might have on the overall western monarchs population. “This is bad news,” Pelton said of the 2024 population drop. “But we have seen incredible recovery. This doesn’t mean we’re not going to have western monarchs.” After a low point of 1,901 monarchs in 2020, the population recovered to 247,246 monarchs the following year, an increase of nearly 13,000 percent. The year after that the survey recorded 335,479 monarchs. The US plans to list monarchs as threatened to call for conservation 12. What is the author’s purpose in writing paragraph 2? A. To lead in the topic of the text. B. To offer background information. C. To discuss the cause of the problem. D. To offer the evidence for the report. 13. What can we know from paragraph 3 about western overwinter monarchs? A. Their populations were the second lowest in 2020. B. They preferred to spend winter in Santa Barbara in 2023. C. They were least seen in the western United States in 1997. D. Their populations experienced a rapid decrease in 2024. 14. Which word can best describe the western monarchs’ future? A. Unclear. B. Unchangeable. C. Controllable. D. Hopeless. 15. What can be the best title for the text? A. Climate Change: Threats to Monarchs B. Monarch Butterflies: a Story of Recovery C. Western Monarchs Have Just Hit Near-Record Low D. Conservation Efforts in Saving Monarch Butterflies 第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Friendship is a very important human relationship and everyone needs good friends.

He decided to do something about it and raise funds to help the cat. Now, that cat is much better and has a brand new owner, all thanks to Sutter’s hard work and clever thinking. Online, Sutter came across a story posted by his local animal shelter. The BC SPCA explained that the cat — which was named Hazel by shelter staff — had been found at the transfer station in Anahim Lake, about fourhours west of Sutter’s home. A transfer station is a place where garbage and other waste are sorted. Shelter staff said Hazel was looking for food there. They later discovered that the back part of it was injured. The head of her femur (股骨) was broken and died — meaning the death of cells in some part of the body — had set in, so Hazel would need surgery to get better. SPCA staff put out a call to the community to raise funds for it, and that’s when Sutter got to work. Sutter thought up a good idea: making use of the power of cinnamon buns (肉桂面包). He knew if there was anything that could get community members to empty their pockets, it would be this sweet treat: cinnamon buns. He and his mum, Leslie Rowse, got to workbaking, and his mum posted about Sutter’s efforts on a social media page for his local community. Around 15 dozen (or 180) cinnamon buns later, Sutter had raised $850. His mum dropped off the money at the shelter, and Hazel was able to start her surgeries. Following Hazel’s surgeries and several days of recovery, Sutter’s mum was ready to share some good news. Sutter’s mum told Sutter that Hazel had a new owner. She asked him to guess who that owner was. “I guessed us! And I was right,” said Sutter. 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。 They decided to pick up Hazel on weekend. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Since adopting Hazel, Sutter has made a lot to improve her condition. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
