As countries work to reduce their carbon footprints, household energy use — which makes up almost 20% of energy — related emissions — brings unique challenges. Below are the categories of household emissions in 2022. Clean energy solutions for homes must be affordable, efficient, and suitable for different types of climates. Although there are different technologies, here are some important innovations leading the way toward a more sustainable future. HEAT PUMPS — Efficient Heating/Cooling Instead of traditional gas boilers, electric heat pumps transfer warmth from air or ground to warm homes, cutting emissions from heating by up to 50%. Maybe hybrid models can work in very cold weather (below 0℃) soon. SOLAR POWER — Rooftop Change Solar energy is the easiest renewable energy for homes to use. Thanks to advances in solar cell technology, the cost of solar panels has dropped by 80% since 2010, making them a practical choice in many parts of the world. SMART GRIDS (电网) — Smarter Electricity Management Grids run by AI make energy use better, saving extra solar power during peak hours and depending less on fossil fuels. WIND POWER — Community Microgrids In windy areas, small-scale wind turbines can provide electricity for local neighborhoods. However, these systems do require space, and land use can sometimes be a topic of debate. “The scale of this transition is huge,” says Dr. Elena Torres, a climate scientist at MIT. “Home renewable energy — like solar power and heat pumps — could meet 90% of global household energy needs by 2050 — but only if investment increases by 200% within this decade.” Recent studies show that every dollar spent on green homes now saves five dollars in the future for dealing with climate change. This isn’t just something we need to do for the environment; it’s also necessary for the economy. 1. Which two categories make up over 70% of total household emissions? A. Space cooling and Water heating. B. Space heating and Appliances & Lighting. C. Space heating and Water heating. D. Space cooling and Appliances & Lighting. 2. Which technology is the most cost-effective? A. Heat pumps. B. Smart grids. C. Solar power. D. Wind power. 3. What does Dr. Torres emphasize about the transition? A. The demand for higher investment. B. The potential of renewable energy. C. The need for household energy. D. The necessity for the economy. B A burn victim as a child, the Brazilian hurdler Alison dos Santos is thankful that track gave him a new life as a teen, when he was vulnerable and insecure. When a pot of hot oil tipped over onto 10-month-old Alison dos Santos, his grandfather’s quick actions saved his life. The permanent scars on his face, chest and arms are reminders of that day. Dos Santos said he often wondered, “Am I different?” His teenage years made things worse. Even his friends would sometimes make hurtful comments about his scars. “I had to go through some dark times, but I had to understand that I wouldn’t be myself if I didn’t have the burns,” he said. His track friends, however, saw him another way — not as the guy with scars, but as a nice person with a good sense of humor who could really run. That helped Dos Santos create a different kind of life. He now travels the world, winning medals in the highly competitive men’s 400-meter hurdles, where he rivals world-record holders and Olympic champions like Karsten Warholm and Rai Benjamin. Dos Santos believes the progress in their event was significantly inspired by Qatari hurdler Abderrahman Samba. When Samba broke 47 seconds in 2018, he changed the mentality: Everything is possible. “When you see Samba doing that, you think, I’ve got to train harder,” Dos Santos explained. Just as Samba inspired him, Dos Santos hopes his own story serves as an inspiration. He sees a connection between the hurdles on the track and the obstacles he overcame in life. “I’m able to share that everyone is unique, everyone is special in their own way,” he said. “You can achieve great things, no matter how hard things are in your life.” 4. Why was Dos Santos’s teenage years harder? A. He failed to win any track competitions. B. He was laughed at by his friends. C. He was often troubled by family economy. D. He couldn’t keep up with his friends. 5. What helped Dos Santos make achievements in sports? A. The recognition from his track friends. B. The attraction of his personality. C. The experience from traveling around. D. The encouragement from an Olympic champion. 6. What does the underlined word “mentality” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Progress. B. Effort. C. Method. D. Belief. 7. What does Dos Santos’ experience show? A. Knowledge is power. B. Practice makes perfect. C. Still waters run deep. D. Recognition makes a difference. C Walk down a street years ago, and chances were good that you’d come across a vision of the Spielbergian sort: groups of school-age children racing down the block on bikes, full of purpose and without helmets. You’re less likely to catch that kind of view today. With the decline in cycling, kids are losing more than a potential mode of transport. Biking improves children’s independence and overall health. And crucially, once kids are trained, it doesn’t require much effort from adults. Moreover, when enough children bike, whole neighborhoods can be transformed-safer and more friendly. Now kids seldom get out. But they desire mobility while threatening traffic and parental concerns frequently stand in their way. This fear is reasonable. Roadways have gotten faster and busier. The annual child cycling deaths have actually dropped. The decrease is due to parents being aware of the greater danger from massive vehicles, rather than streets are safer. Families haven’t always had to be this watchful. Public planning in previous decades may not have had marked bike lanes (车道) or other protective road features. But children had more space to wander, and fewer and slower cars to deal with. It wasn’t until public planning prioritized cars that children lost both play areas and the freedom to travel independently. By adding more bike-friendly infrastructure (基础设施), local governments could encourage children to ride again. Meanwhile, teaching road rules falls largely to parents. Finding safe-enough places for practice might be tough, yet with a little creativity, parents can choose dead ends or unused parking lots. Putting in that work may demand more of parents in the short term. But the investment is worth it. Many parents want to raise confident and adaptable children, yet over-scheduled extra-curricular (课外活动) requiring constant monitoring rarely help. What many need is a bit more freedom: time to explore, to ride aimlessly-until they’re ready to take off. 8. What does the author want to express in Paragraph 1? A. Kids liked riding bikes in the past. B. Children’s biking is less common today. C. Spielbergian scenes were everywhere. D. School-age kids like racing down blocks. 9. What is the possible result of the decline in children cycling? A. Roadways become faster and safer. B. Bike lanes are removed. C. The burden on parents increase. D. Neighborhoods are more friendly. 10. What can be inferred about public planning in previous decades? A. It put bikes in the first place. B. It offered kids safer places. C It marked bike paths. D. It built many parking lots. 11. What’s the best title for the passage? A. Kids Freedom on Two Wheels. B. The Joy of Children’s Biking. C. Ways to Protect Child Cyclists. D. The Needs for Safer Street. D It’s hard to imagine that global warming would have much effect on the world’s hot and dry deserts. But even small changes in temperature or rain can affect desert plants and animals. In some cases. global warming is predicted to increase desert lands, which already cover one-fifth of Earth’s land. Deserts are important to people. More than one billion people live in greater dry lands. For many of them, deserts provide food and useful resources. The dry environment is also ideal for protecting archaeological artifacts and fossils (文物和化石). Besides, deserts help reduce sandstorms with biocrust — a top layer of soil with tiny living things that hold the soil together. However, global warming is making droughts happen more often, which dries up water holes. Using water for irrigation (灌溉) over a long time may make the soil have too much salt, so plants can’t grow there. Higher temperatures may cause more wildfires, and these fires can change desert areas by killing plants. When people use off-road vehicles carelessly, they can damage desert homes for animals. Oil and gas production and nuclear testing can also do harm to these sensitive areas. Some human activities — like collecting firewood and grazing animals — are turning dry lands into deserts. This process is called desertification. Population growth and greater demand for land make it hard to solve this problem. Luckily, despite these challenges, there are ways to protect deserts. We can use water more efficiently and control salinization better to improve dry lands. We can find new ways to grow different crops in turns to protect the soil, and plant bushes and trees that hold sand. Leguminous (豆科) plants can make the soil fertile again. Artificial grooves (凹槽) can help keep rainwater and catch seeds. Tourism can be managed better too. Creating marked trails and roads can help prevent travelers from damaging the delicate biocrust, an often overlooked desert threat. 12. How does the author develop his idea in the second paragraph? A. By giving specific examples. B. By explaining a concept. C. By quoting an expert. D. By providing data. 13. What leads to the soil in dry areas being too salty? A. Plants. B. Water holes. C. Irrigation. D. Wildfire. 14. What is the author’s suggestion about? A. Management of tourism. B. Solutions to protecting dry areas. C. Improvement of the soil. D. Protection of agriculture. 15. What is the author’s attitude towards the future of dry areas? A. Hopeless. B. Positive. C. Uncaring. D. Worried. 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。 When talking about long-serving workers at Indiana University, one name stands out — Janet Tapp. ____16____ On October 21, 2024, she celebrated 60 years of working at the university.

For me, a high school senior hoping for a college sports scholarship, this race was very important. The starting gun fired, and runners in colorful shirts rushed forward. I found my speed, but it was a difficult and painful pace. The first two miles were a blur of pain. My lungs burned with every breath of cold air. When we reached the famous “Killer Hill” — a long and soul-crushing slope — many runners slowed down. I pushed very hard and passed a few tired competitors. For a short moment at the top of the hill, I even thought I could finish in the top ten. But the effort cost me everything. The flat ground after the hill felt like running through concrete. I had a sharp pain in my side. My legs, once strong, now felt like heavy wood. The sound of the crowd in the faraway stadium seemed to laugh at me. I hit my limit, not just in my body, but in my mind. A voice in my head said with every step, “Just stop. Slow down. It’s okay to give up.” One by one, runners I had passed earlier began to pass me. Their heavy breathing and footsteps felt like the end of my dream. With each person who passed, my will to continue broke a little more. The finish line seemed a million miles away. I was drowning in tiredness and ready to accept defeat. My goal was disappearing, and I had no strength left to fight for it. It was at my lowest point, as I looked down at the ground, fighting tears of pain and disappointment, that I heard steady, strong footsteps coming up behind me. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式作答。 An experienced runner from another school caught up with me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hearing his inspiring words, I wiped the tears from my eyes. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025—2026学年度第一学期期中考试 高一年级英语试卷 试卷满分：150分 注意事项： 1. 答题前，先将自己的姓名、准考证号等填写在试卷和答题卡上，并将准考证号条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2. 请按题号顺序在答题卡上各题目的答题区域内作答，写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 3. 选择题用2B铅笔在答题卡上把所选答案的标号涂黑，非选择题用黑色签字笔在答题卡上作答。 4. 考试结束后，请将答题卡上交。 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。 例：How much is the shirt?

(由于太阳能电池技术的进步，自2010年以来，太阳能电池板的成本下降了80%，使其成为世界上许多地方的实用选择。)”可知，太阳能是最具成本效益的。故选C。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中““The scale of this transition is huge,” says Dr. Elena Torres, a climate scientist at MIT. “Home renewable energy — like solar power and heat pumps — could meet 90% of global household energy needs by 2050 — but only if investment increases by 200% within this decade.” (麻省理工学院的气候科学家埃琳娜·托雷斯博士说：“这一转变的规模是巨大的。到2050年，家庭可再生能源（如太阳能和热泵）可以满足全球90%的家庭能源需求，但前提是本十年内投资增加200%。”)”可知，托雷斯博士强调了向清洁能源转变需要更高的投资。故选A。 B A burn victim as a child, the Brazilian hurdler Alison dos Santos is thankful that track gave him a new life as a teen, when he was vulnerable and insecure. When a pot of hot oil tipped over onto 10-month-old Alison dos Santos, his grandfather’s quick actions saved his life. The permanent scars on his face, chest and arms are reminders of that day. Dos Santos said he often wondered, “Am I different?” His teenage years made things worse. Even his friends would sometimes make hurtful comments about his scars. “I had to go through some dark times, but I had to understand that I wouldn’t be myself if I didn’t have the burns,” he said. His track friends, however, saw him another way — not as the guy with scars, but as a nice person with a good sense of humor who could really run. That helped Dos Santos create a different kind of life. He now travels the world, winning medals in the highly competitive men’s 400-meter hurdles, where he rivals world-record holders and Olympic champions like Karsten Warholm and Rai Benjamin. Dos Santos believes the progress in their event was significantly inspired by Qatari hurdler Abderrahman Samba. When Samba broke 47 seconds in 2018, he changed the mentality: Everything is possible. “When you see Samba doing that, you think, I’ve got to train harder,” Dos Santos explained. Just as Samba inspired him, Dos Santos hopes his own story serves as an inspiration. He sees a connection between the hurdles on the track and the obstacles he overcame in life. “I’m able to share that everyone is unique, everyone is special in their own way,” he said. “You can achieve great things, no matter how hard things are in your life.” 4. Why was Dos Santos’s teenage years harder? A. He failed to win any track competitions. B. He was laughed at by his friends. C. He was often troubled by family economy. D. He couldn’t keep up with his friends. 5. What helped Dos Santos make achievements in sports? A. The recognition from his track friends. B. The attraction of his personality. C. The experience from traveling around. D. The encouragement from an Olympic champion. 6. What does the underlined word “mentality” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Progress. B. Effort. C. Method. D. Belief. 7. What does Dos Santos’ experience show? A. Knowledge is power. B. Practice makes perfect. C. Still waters run deep. D. Recognition makes a difference. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了巴西跨栏运动员艾莉森·多斯桑托斯克服童年烧伤带来的心理障碍，在田径赛场上取得辉煌成就并激励他人的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“His teenage years made things worse. Even his friends would sometimes make hurtful comments about his scars.(他的青少年时期让事情变得更糟糕。甚至他的朋友有时也会对他的伤疤发表伤人的评论。)”可知，多斯桑托斯的青少年时期更加艰难是因为他被朋友嘲笑。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“His track friends, however, saw him another way-not as the guy with scars, but as a nice person with a good sense of humor who could really run. That helped Dos Santos create a different kind of life.(然而，他在田径队的朋友们却以另一种方式看待他——不是把他看作那个有伤疤的人，而是把他看作一个幽默风趣、跑得很快的好人。这帮助多斯桑托斯创造了另一种生活。)”可知，是田径队朋友们的认可帮助多斯桑托斯在体育上取得成就。故选A。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段中“When Samba broke 47 seconds in 2018, he changed the mentality: Everything is possible.(当桑巴在2018年突破47秒大关时，他改变了这种mentality：一切皆有可能。)”可知，桑巴突破47秒大关，改变了人们认为不可能的信念，故mentality意为“信念”。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“His track friends, however, saw him another way-not as the guy with scars, but as a nice person with a good sense of humor who could really run. That helped Dos Santos create a different kind of life.(然而，他在田径队的朋友们却以另一种方式看待他——不是把他看作那个有伤疤的人，而是把他看作一个幽默风趣、跑得很快的好人。这帮助多斯桑托斯创造了另一种生活。)”可知，多斯桑托斯的经历表明了认可会带来改变。故选D。 C Walk down a street years ago, and chances were good that you’d come across a vision of the Spielbergian sort: groups of school-age children racing down the block on bikes, full of purpose and without helmets. You’re less likely to catch that kind of view today. With the decline in cycling, kids are losing more than a potential mode of transport. Biking improves children’s independence and overall health. And crucially, once kids are trained, it doesn’t require much effort from adults. Moreover, when enough children bike, whole neighborhoods can be transformed-safer and more friendly. Now kids seldom get out. But they desire mobility while threatening traffic and parental concerns frequently stand in their way. This fear is reasonable. Roadways have gotten faster and busier. The annual child cycling deaths have actually dropped. The decrease is due to parents being aware of the greater danger from massive vehicles, rather than streets are safer. Families haven’t always had to be this watchful. Public planning in previous decades may not have had marked bike lanes (车道) or other protective road features. But children had more space to wander, and fewer and slower cars to deal with. It wasn’t until public planning prioritized cars that children lost both play areas and the freedom to travel independently. By adding more bike-friendly infrastructure (基础设施), local governments could encourage children to ride again. Meanwhile, teaching road rules falls largely to parents. Finding safe-enough places for practice might be tough, yet with a little creativity, parents can choose dead ends or unused parking lots. Putting in that work may demand more of parents in the short term. But the investment is worth it. Many parents want to raise confident and adaptable children, yet over-scheduled extra-curricular (课外活动) requiring constant monitoring rarely help. What many need is a bit more freedom: time to explore, to ride aimlessly-until they’re ready to take off. 8. What does the author want to express in Paragraph 1? A. Kids liked riding bikes in the past. B. Children’s biking is less common today. C. Spielbergian scenes were everywhere. D. School-age kids like racing down blocks. 9. What is the possible result of the decline in children cycling? A. Roadways become faster and safer. B. Bike lanes are removed. C. The burden on parents increase. D. Neighborhoods are more friendly. 10. What can be inferred about public planning in previous decades? A. It put bikes in the first place. B. It offered kids safer places. C. It marked bike paths. D. It built many parking lots. 11. What’s the best title for the passage? A. Kids Freedom on Two Wheels. B. The Joy of Children’s Biking. C. Ways to Protect Child Cyclists. D. The Needs for Safer Street. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章对比了过去与现在儿童骑行情况的差异，分析了如今儿童骑行减少的原因（交通风险、家长担忧等），并提出政府完善骑行基础设施、家长寻找安全练习场地等鼓励儿童重新骑行的建议。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Walk down a street years ago, and chances were good that you’d come across a vision of the Spielbergian sort: groups of school-age children racing down the block on bikes, full of purpose and without helmets. You’re less likely to catch that kind of view today. (多年前走在街上，你很可能会撞见一幅斯皮尔伯格式的场景：一群学龄儿童骑着自行车沿着街区飞奔，目标明确，而且没戴头盔。如今，你不太可能再看到这样的景象了。)”可知，作者在第一段想表达现在孩子骑自行车的情况不如以前常见了。故选B项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“And crucially, once kids are trained, it doesn’t require much effort from adults. (而且关键的是，一旦孩子接受了训练，就不需要成年人付出太多精力。)”可反向推断，孩子骑自行车减少后，成年人可能需要投入更多精力照顾孩子的出行等，即父母的负担会增加。故选C项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Public planning in previous decades may not have had marked bike lanes (车道) or other protective road features. But children had more space to wander, and fewer and slower cars to deal with.(前几十年的城市规划可能没有明显的自行车道或其他保护性道路设施。但孩子们有更多的空间闲逛，需要应对的汽车也更少、更慢。)”可知，前几十年的城市规划虽没有专门的自行车保护设施，但客观上给孩子提供了更安全的活动和出行空间。故选B项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Walk down a street years ago, and chances were good that you’d come across a vision of the Spielbergian sort: groups of school-age children racing down the block on bikes, full of purpose and without helmets. You’re less likely to catch that kind of view today. (多年前走在街上，你很可能会撞见一幅斯皮尔伯格式的场景：一群学龄儿童骑着自行车沿着街区飞奔，目标明确，而且没戴头盔。如今，你不太可能再看到这样的景象了。)”以及后文可知，文章开篇对比过去和现在孩子骑自行车的情况，随后分析孩子骑自行车减少的影响、原因，最后提出政府和父母可采取的措施，核心围绕“孩子骑自行车带来的自由”及“如何让孩子重新获得这种自由”展开。所以A项Kids Freedom on Two Wheels(两轮间，孩子们畅享自由)符合语境。故选A项。 D It’s hard to imagine that global warming would have much effect on the world’s hot and dry deserts. But even small changes in temperature or rain can affect desert plants and animals. In some cases. global warming is predicted to increase desert lands, which already cover one-fifth of Earth’s land. Deserts are important to people. More than one billion people live in greater dry lands. For many of them, deserts provide food and useful resources. The dry environment is also ideal for protecting archaeological artifacts and fossils (文物和化石). Besides, deserts help reduce sandstorms with biocrust — a top layer of soil with tiny living things that hold the soil together. However, global warming is making droughts happen more often, which dries up water holes. Using water for irrigation (灌溉) over a long time may make the soil have too much salt, so plants can’t grow there. Higher temperatures may cause more wildfires, and these fires can change desert areas by killing plants. When people use off-road vehicles carelessly, they can damage desert homes for animals. Oil and gas production and nuclear testing can also do harm to these sensitive areas. Some human activities — like collecting firewood and grazing animals — are turning dry lands into deserts. This process is called desertification. Population growth and greater demand for land make it hard to solve this problem. Luckily, despite these challenges, there are ways to protect deserts. We can use water more efficiently and control salinization better to improve dry lands. We can find new ways to grow different crops in turns to protect the soil, and plant bushes and trees that hold sand. Leguminous (豆科) plants can make the soil fertile again. Artificial grooves (凹槽) can help keep rainwater and catch seeds. Tourism can be managed better too. Creating marked trails and roads can help prevent travelers from damaging the delicate biocrust, an often overlooked desert threat. 12. How does the author develop his idea in the second paragraph? A. By giving specific examples. B. By explaining a concept. C. By quoting an expert. D. By providing data. 13. What leads to the soil in dry areas being too salty? A. Plants. B. Water holes. C. Irrigation. D. Wildfire. 14. What is the author’s suggestion about? A. Management of tourism. B. Solutions to protecting dry areas. C. Improvement of the soil. D. Protection of agriculture. 15. What is the author’s attitude towards the future of dry areas? A. Hopeless. B. Positive. C. Uncaring. D. Worried. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了全球变暖对沙漠的影响、人类活动对沙漠的破坏以及保护沙漠的方法。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Deserts are important to people. More than one billion people live in greater dry lands. For many of them, deserts provide food and useful resources. The dry environment is also ideal for protecting archaeological artifacts and fossils (文物和化石). Besides, deserts help reduce sandstorms with biocrust — a top layer of soil with tiny living things that hold the soil together.(沙漠对人类意义重大。超过10亿人生活在广袤的干旱地区，对其中许多人来说，沙漠能提供食物和有用的资源。干燥的环境也非常适合保护文物和化石。此外，沙漠中的生物结皮 —— 一层由微小生物构成的表土，能将土壤凝聚在一起 —— 有助于减少沙尘暴的发生。)”可知，作者在第二段中通过给出具体的例子来阐述他的观点。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Using water for irrigation (灌溉) over a long time may make the soil have too much salt, so plants can’t grow there.(长时间使用灌溉用水可能会使土壤含盐量过高，因此植物无法在那里生长。)”可知，是灌溉导致干旱地区的土壤含盐量过高。故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Luckily, despite these challenges, there are ways to protect deserts. We can use water more efficiently and control salinization better to improve dry lands.(幸运的是，尽管面临这些挑战，仍有办法保护沙漠。我们可以更高效地用水，更好地控制土壤盐碱化，以改善干旱地区的状况。)”可知，作者的建议是关于保护干旱地区的方法。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Luckily, despite these challenges, there are ways to protect deserts. We can use water more efficiently and control salinization better to improve dry lands.(幸运的是，尽管面临这些挑战，仍有办法保护沙漠。我们可以更高效地用水，更好地控制土壤盐碱化，以改善干旱地区的状况。)”可知，作者对干旱地区的未来持积极态度。故选B。 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。 When talking about long-serving workers at Indiana University, one name stands out — Janet Tapp. ____16____ On October 21, 2024, she celebrated 60 years of working at the university.

For me, a high school senior hoping for a college sports scholarship, this race was very important. The starting gun fired, and runners in colorful shirts rushed forward. I found my speed, but it was a difficult and painful pace. The first two miles were a blur of pain. My lungs burned with every breath of cold air. When we reached the famous “Killer Hill” — a long and soul-crushing slope — many runners slowed down. I pushed very hard and passed a few tired competitors. For a short moment at the top of the hill, I even thought I could finish in the top ten. But the effort cost me everything. The flat ground after the hill felt like running through concrete. I had a sharp pain in my side. My legs, once strong, now felt like heavy wood. The sound of the crowd in the faraway stadium seemed to laugh at me. I hit my limit, not just in my body, but in my mind. A voice in my head said with every step, “Just stop. Slow down. It’s okay to give up.” One by one, runners I had passed earlier began to pass me. Their heavy breathing and footsteps felt like the end of my dream. With each person who passed, my will to continue broke a little more. The finish line seemed a million miles away. I was drowning in tiredness and ready to accept defeat. My goal was disappearing, and I had no strength left to fight for it. It was at my lowest point, as I looked down at the ground, fighting tears of pain and disappointment, that I heard steady, strong footsteps coming up behind me. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式作答 An experienced runner from another school caught up with me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hearing his inspiring words, I wiped the tears from my eyes. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 An experienced runner from another school caught up with me. “You’ve got this!” he shouted over the wind. “Don’t stop now — we’re almost there!” When I glanced at him, I saw his eyes were clear and determined. He didn’t know me, yet he chose to stay with me at this difficult moment. Suddenly, something inside me changed. It was his courage that lit a small fire in my heart. I took a deep breath, clenched my fists, and decided to keep going. Hearing his inspiring words, I wiped the tears from my eyes. I straightened my back and pushed forward, ignoring the burning in my legs. The crowd’s cheers, which had seemed to laugh at me earlier, now sounded like encouraging music. Crossing the finish line, I collapsed but smiled. I didn’t know my final ranking, but I knew I had overcome my weakest self. I also learned that when you feel like giving up, a small act of kindness can help you find the courage to keep going. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了一名高中生在至关重要的州越野赛中，在陌生选手的鼓励下，从濒临放弃到重拾勇气、最终战胜自我的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“一位来自另一所学校的经验丰富的选手追上了我。”可知，第一段可描写陌生选手如何用简单而有力的话语激励主人公。 ②由第二段首句内容“听到他鼓舞人心的话语，我擦去了眼泪。”可知，第二段可描写主人公重燃斗志、完成比赛的转变与最终的感悟。 2.续写线索：陌生选手的鼓励——内心的转变——重整旗鼓——坚持跑到终点——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①大声叫喊：shout/yell/call out ②瞥一眼：glance at/catch a glimpse of ③倒下：collapse/fall to the ground 情绪类 ①鼓舞人心的：inspiring/inspirational ②勇气：courage/nerve 【点睛】【高分句型1】It was his courage that lit a small fire in my heart.
