Part 2 经典句式……………………………写作迁移
句型公式:What if...要是……怎么办?
(1)意为“如果……将怎么办?”,可以看作是“What will happen if...?”的省略形式;
(2)还可表示“即使……又有什么关系?”,可以看作是“What does it matter if...?”的省略形式。

②So what if sometimes they stayed rather late (即便有时他们熬夜到很晚又有什么关系)? It doesn't mean anything.
③[读后续写之情感心理活动] 我变得焦虑起来。如果她没收到我的短信怎么办?如果她迷路了怎么办?

④[中国元素] 如果一幅中国山水画的精致之美能够因其朦胧的山脉和优美的河流中活起来呢?
What if the delicate beauty of a Chinese landscape painting could come alive,with its misty mountains and graceful rivers?
句型公式:way 作先行词,后接定语从句
(1)way 表“方式;方法”,在定语从句中作先行词时,定语从句中缺少方式状语,其后用in which/that 引导定语从句,也可省略关系词,此时关系词在从句中作状语。
(2)way 后接定语从句时,如关系词在从句中作主语或宾语,则用关系代词that/which,关系代词在从句中作宾语时可省略。
①Many students are interested in the way(that) the teacher gives his/her lessons (老师讲课的方式).
②What surprised me was not what he said but the way he said it (他说这件事的方式).
③[读后续写之情感描写] 我的社会学老师鼓励我参加写作比赛的方式出乎我的意料。他说他喜欢我表达想法的方式,所以我决定试一试。
The way that my social studies teacher encouraged me to participate in a writing contest was unexpected.He said that he liked the way in which I expressed my ideas and thoughts so I decided to have a try.

(2024·河北高三下适应测试)
Making it to 100 years old is a big achievement on its own, but being active at that age is absolutely worthy of praise and admiration.Jayne Burns, who just turned 101 years old, still has a parttime job at a craft store in Ohio, drives herself to work, and simply doesn't see herself retiring anytime soon.Not only does she seem to love keeping busy, but she credits it as one of her secrets to living a long life.
Burns first caught the Internet's attention on TikTok.There, her coworker Maggie HusVar told her followers about her then 98yearold friend.Maggie then asked Burns to share a piece of advice with her new fans, to whom Burns said, “Keep moving.”
The senior woman recently celebrated her 101st birthday, and she certainly hasn't changed her mind about slowing down.Burns took the job in 1997 after her husband died, and has expressed that she enjoys what she does, so she wants to keep doing it “I'll work for as long as I can or as long as they'll have me,” she said.
In celebration of her milestone birthday, Burns recently shared some more tips for a long life.“I was always active all my life doing things.So I think that has helped more than anything.” As a cancer survivor, she said she used to watch her sugar intake, but she doesn't anymore, as she loves sweets.Despite her age, she still follows a beauty routine.“I use a moisturizer(保湿霜) and makeup.I figured I did it all my life, so I'm not going to stop now,” she says.
Overall, her top secret for a long life is to make friends and find happiness in the company of others.“It's important to find people who are friendly and kind,” she says, “I enjoy talking to everybody I work with, and meeting the customers who are very nice, even if some of them are surprised to see me at the cutting table.”
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一位101岁高龄但仍然活跃的女性Jayne Burns的故事——她在一家手工艺术品店做兼职工作,并且热爱忙碌的生活。她认为长寿的秘诀是交朋友,并在他人的陪伴中找到快乐。

(2024·金丽衢十二校联考)
In February 2024, I began learning Chinese.Almost a year later, I found myself in Beijing, the capital of China.Before coming here, I had attended Chinese classes, and I could sense my progress in the language, albeit modest.As you might expect, studying for just one year wasn't sufficient to claim fluency, and to be honest, I'm not there yet.But full proficiency in the language is not necessary to immerse yourself in and enjoy many attractions of life in China.
The one thing that truly makes me feel comfortable and alleviates loneliness is making friends and engaging in conversation.At Tsinghua University, where I pursued my studies in China, I made friends with many Chinese young people and relished spending time with them, be it for meals or leisure activities.I've been delighted to sing Chinese songs with my friends.I would also sing wellknown Japanese songs, such as Lemon, which is very popular in China.I felt that connecting with my Chinese peers through a shared passion, such as singing, was incredibly enjoyable and beautiful.It transcended language barriers and fostered a sense of unity and joy that was truly special.
During breaks from study, I frequently embarked on solo journeys across China.Although I have experienced traveling on overnight trains for over 12 hours several times and explored unfamiliar cities, I never felt fearful or unwelcome as a foreigner.Chinese people are consistently warm and welcoming to foreigners, and eager to engage in conversation.
I once participated in community activities in northwest China's Gansu Province to gain a deeper understanding of China's rural areas and contribute to the development of local communities and education.As a volunteer teacher at a local school, I shared contemporary and traditional Japanese culture such as anime, architecture, pop music and languages with the students.Since Japanese kanji originated in China, there are many similarities between the Japanese and Chinese languages.

(2025·青岛高三检测)
When you think of your closest friends, who will come to your mind? Perhaps your college roommates or the neighbor you played with as a child.Regardless of how you met these people, they most likely have one key thing in common: 1 A 2023 study found that, for those aged 21 to 30, over 80 percent in their social circles were born within five years of them.Moreover, nearly 63 percent of adults have no close friends 15 years older or younger than them.
Spending our time with such a narrow group of people can fuel age segregation and increase our loneliness.These limitations also keep us from other generations' mindsets and potentially surprising points of connection. 2 Of course, the ones that are older might offer a brief look into the coming years.
A program that runs schools out of senior centers has said a lot about it. 3 Dawn Carr, a sociology professor, said most older people get much from practical help—with new technology, for instance—their younger friends offered. 4 Having fun with someone decades younger definitely takes off their pressure to “act their age”.
5 Lila, aged 75, was proud that her life experiences prepared her to give advice to her young friend with depression, for which the young was grateful.Also, older friends offer more examples of what growing up can look like.If someone's parents are the only older people they know well, they might fail to picture other possibilities.A greater pool of older friends can help young people create their own blueprint.
A.You befriend those who live around.
B.They're all roughly the same age as you.
C.Others might find joy in exposure to new ideas.
D.Brought closer, both see more than one benefit.
E.Younger friends can be a reminder of past selves.
F.Forming these kinds of friendship is particularly hard today.
G.Indeed, intergenerational relationship is never a oneway street.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了老年人和年轻人交朋友时双方都会得到好处。
1.答案:B
解析:根据上文中的“they most likely have one key thing in common” 和下文中的 “...were born within five years of them.” 可知,空处主要说明亲密的朋友的共同点是什么——这些人都与自己的年纪接近。B 项 “他们都和你差不多大。” 符合语境,故选B。
2.答案:E
解析:根据下文中的 “Of course, the ones that are older might offer a brief look into the coming years.” 可知,老年人朋友会让人了解未来。E 项 “年轻人朋友可以让人想起过去的自己。”符合语境,其中的Younger 呼应了下文中的older,past呼应了下文中的the coming years。故选E。
3.答案:D
解析:根据下文 “...most older people get much from practical help—with new technology, for instance—their younger friends offered.” 以及 “Having fun with someone decades younger definitely takes off their pressure to ‘act their age’.” 可知,空处主要说明老年人和年轻人在相处时都会得到好处。D 项 “距离一旦拉近,两者都看到了不止一个好处。” 符合语境。下文中的 get much from practical help和takes off their pressure 解释了D 项中的 more than one benefit。故选D。
4.答案:C
解析:根据下文 “Having fun with someone decades younger definitely takes off their pressure to‘act their age’.” 可知,年纪大的人和比自己小几十岁的人玩得开心,会减轻心理压力,因此空处应提及心理层面的受益。C项 “其他人可能会从接触新想法中找到乐趣。” 引出下文,符合语境,故选C。
5.答案:G
解析:文章的前面几段说的是在与年轻人交朋友时,老年人会得到的好处。根据下文中的 “Lila, aged 75, was proud that her life experiences prepared her to give advice to her young friend with depression, for which the young was grateful.” 和 “A greater pool of older friends can help young people create their own blueprint.” 可知,本段说明了年轻人在和老年人相处时也会得到好处。G项 “其实,代际关系从来不是单行道。” 符合语境,故选G。
