B(必修一 U1 Life Choices)
At nine years old, I didn’t realize how extraordinary it was for me and my grandmother to travel from our Black neighborhood to the mainly white Revere Beach. While Black families stayed together in one section, rarely venturing out alone, my grandmother stood out — confident and athletic while swimming, unlike the other women worried about their hair or suits.
She would carry me on her back into the ocean, moving steadily along the tide. I followed my grandmother’s strong motions, thrilled by the wild sea and her fearlessness. I admired how she seemed born to the water, emerging like a queen — proud, radiant, and benevolent.
Summer made our Black bodies more visible and vulnerable against narrow cultural ideals, but my grandmother never noticed. She focused on teaching me to swim — a skill that seemed unnecessary to some, as the popular media never portrayed the “great outdoors” as a welcoming place for Black people. It was seen as a space where we might feel uncomfortable or even threatened. But to me, those perceptions didn’t matter. When I finally learned to swim, it felt like I had unlocked a profound and personal secret of strength and freedom.
I once wondered why enslaved Africans didn’t jump from ships near shore and swim to freedom. Later I learned that most coastal waters in West Africa were filled with poisonous fish, making swimming uncommon and dangerous. Now, whenever I enter the ocean, I remember my ancestors for whom the sea was a place of terror rather than freedom.
Only after my grandmother’s death did I learn she wasn’t a strong swimmer herself. She had been brushing the ocean floor with her feet all along, keeping us afloat while teaching me rhythm and trust. Her quiet deception was not a lie but a profound act of bravery and courage. Though she hadn’t mastered it herself, my grandmother was determined to teach me to swim — not for the strokes, but for the strength and self-belief that would keep me afloat in life.
24. How was the grandmother different from other women at the beach?
A. She stayed with Black families only.
B. She avoided getting her hair and suits wet.
C. She seemed to swim with ease and strength.
D. She stood outside of the swimming section.
25. What does the author realize about African slaves?
A. They were poisonous by sea creatures.
B. They didn’t enjoy outdoor activities.
C. They rarely swam due to natural dangers.
D. They could have easily escaped by swimming.
26. Why did the grandmother teach the author to swim?
A. To challenge her limits. B. To build her confidence.
C. To prepare her for dangers at sea. D. To prove Black people could swim.
27. Which title best suits the passage?
A. Overcoming Fears at Revere Beach B. A Summer That Changed My Childhood
C. Breaking Self-Doubt and Cultural Bias D. Grandmother’s Empowering Lessons
C(选择性必修三Unit 8 Literature)
“Klara and the Sun,” by Kazuo Ishiguro, takes readers on a journey through the mind of Klara, one of many artificial friends who have been built to keep lonely children company. Klara is a one-of-a-kind machine whose keen observational abilities are praised by the human beings who meet her. She may be a machine, but her thoughts and emotions are deeply real.
Klara is chosen at the store by a young girl named Josie who connects with her immediately. She comes home with her to learn that Josie has a serious illness. Devoted to Josie, Klara does all she can to keep her safe and well.
Ishiguro creates a fascinating world through Klara’s eyes as she struggles to understand how humans operate, while at the same time working through a growing number of feelings of her own. Throughout the book, Klara is more or less treated as a person and sometimes, you may even forget that she isn’t one. Through her perspective, you will gain a fresh viewpoint on human relationships and emotion.
It feels like the perfect book to curl up with in a cozy corner on a Sunday afternoon. Ishiguro allows the story to unfold slowly and organically, inviting readers to sink into its world and revealing enough on every page to continue arousing curiosity. As you follow Klara’s story, you begin to see the world through her unique eyes, reflecting on whether someone like Klara can ever truly represent the human spirit. Meanwhile, the line between artificial intelligence and human heart seems to blur.
Overall, Klara and the Sun offers a quiet, reflective reading experience that may not be as sharply intense as some of Ishiguro’s other books, but it still delivers a thoughtful exploration of love, emotions and the role of technology in our lives. It’s a bittersweet and comforting read, one that echoes in your mind and your thoughts long after you’ve turned the final page.
28. How is Klara unique among her kind?
A. She is a sharp observer. B. She has a human-like appearance
C. She can cure children’s illnesses. D. She stands out for its special design.
29. What can readers learn from Klara’s perspective?
A. The way humans operate. B. The inner feelings of AI.
C. A new insight into humanity D. A model for AI-human harmony.
30. What does the underlined phrase “curl up with” probably mean in Para 4?
A. Finish in a hurry. B. Analyze in depth.
C. Discuss with friends. D. Read with comfort.
31. What does the author think of Klara and the Sun?
A. Sharp and intense. B. Thoughtful and warm.
C. Light and entertaining. D. Fast-paced and thrilling.
D(选择性必修一Unit 1 Relationships)
Picture this, you win two tickets to a sold-out concert and eagerly text to ask your friends if they’d like to join. There comes their response “Maybe.” Your mood immediately turns, for you need to wait for their decisions before you can figure out your plans for the concert.
If you’ve experienced anything like the above anecdote (趣闻), you’re not alone. People responding “maybe” to invitations is a common yet annoying aspect of social life. What goes on in people’s heads when they aren’t sure whether to accept an invitation? Social invitations can be a delicate dance. People often misread what someone extending an invitation wants to hear and overestimate an inviter’s likelihood of preferring a “maybe” over a “no.” Moreover, they fail to realize how much more disrespected people feel when they receive a “maybe” in response to their invitation.
Naturally, we wanted to figure out why this awkward dynamic plays out. We found that it’s largely due to something called “motivated reasoning.” Motivated reasoning occurs when a person interprets information in a biased (有偏差的) way to suit their own wishes. In other words, invitees convince themselves that inviters want to hear “maybe” instead of “no” because a “maybe” is better for the invitees, allowing them to leave their options open. Besides, people tend to overestimate the negative consequences of saying “no” to invitations, thinking it will upset, anger and disappoint inviters.
However, there were certain situations that made people more comfortable saying “no” to an invitation. When recipients of an invitation put themselves in the shoes of the person extending the invitation, they are more likely to realize that they’d probably prefer a definite answer. When the participants get invited to do something they didn’t want to do, they had no desire to keep their options open. The motivated reasoning then became irrelevant.
While navigating social situations can be tricky, being direct and definite is sometimes best. It might reduce your options. But it’ll keep those who invite you from being left uncertain and maybe they will still think of you when the next concert comes to town.
32. Why is the concert anecdote mentioned at the beginning?
A. To explain the background of the invitation.
B. To stress the importance of quick replies.
C. To encourage immediate decision- making.
D. To introduce a common social situation.
33. What is the main reason for the response of “maybe” to an invitation?
A. A biased interpretation of social cues.
B. A desire for harmonious communication.
C. An underestimation of refusal consequence.
D. An understanding of the inviter’s expectation.
34. What is the author’s suggestion in the last paragraph?
A. Keeping your options open for better plans.
B. Accepting invitations to maintain friendships.
C. Prioritizing clear response over open options.
D. Thinking twice before refusing an invitation.
35. What’s the passage’s main purpose?
A. To explore why people say “maybe” and advocate clear replies.
B. To explain the hidden consequences of “maybe” in social invitations.
C. To discuss the awkwardness of uncertain replies and share advice.
D. To keep options open by changing replies from “no” to “maybe”.

During really tough times, like when she suffers from poor health, Santos feels like she is reaching for reasons to be grateful. But she still tries to find some. “I’m grateful for the sun that’s shining or being able to wake up.” she says. ____40____

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My love for dance began when I was very young and I would dream to be a star dancer from time to time. With the drama festival approaching, the school’s drama club had released a notice for the dancer audition (试镜) for The Twelve Dancing Princesses. And of course I was the first one to sign up.
As I left the stage after my audition at school, I could feel it. The power. The future. I knew that someday when dancers’ magazines wrote about me, they would say this moment was when my rise to a star began.
My ballet slippers hurt my feet, but I figured that was helpful. In The Twelve Dancing Princesses, the princesses danced all night so they probably had foot pain, too. My performance was more genuine because of my pain. I needed to show my devotion even when I wasn’t on stage, so I approached Mr. Ellison, the drama club advisor. He told me that casting (角色分配) will be posted tomorrow.“ Thank you, sir,” I said, using the almost British pronunciation of Hollywood stars in the 1940s. I was so sure that Mr. Ellison would cast me as a princess.
The next morning, I went to read the cast list. The twelve princesses were first, by number. I scanned from One to Twelve, but none by me. At the bottom of the casting list, my name finally appeared. My role was a really small one, an old woman who helped a soldier, not one of the princesses! I was desperately disappointed. Mr. Ellison must have made a mistake! No one else in the school had my skills or preparation!.
I found him in his classroom, but he insisted there was no mistake and emphasized that every role in a play was important. Unable to accept the fact, I burst into tears. Mr. Ellison managed to calm me down and encouraged me to have a try in the rehearsal (排练).
注意:1. 续写词数应为 150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The next day, I dragged myself to the rehearsal.

B(必修一 U1 Life Choices)
At nine years old, I didn’t realize how extraordinary it was for me and my grandmother to travel from our Black neighborhood to the mainly white Revere Beach. While Black families stayed together in one section, rarely venturing out alone, my grandmother stood out — confident and athletic while swimming, unlike the other women worried about their hair or suits.
She would carry me on her back into the ocean, moving steadily along the tide. I followed my grandmother’s strong motions, thrilled by the wild sea and her fearlessness. I admired how she seemed born to the water, emerging like a queen — proud, radiant, and benevolent.
Summer made our Black bodies more visible and vulnerable against narrow cultural ideals, but my grandmother never noticed. She focused on teaching me to swim — a skill that seemed unnecessary to some, as the popular media never portrayed the “great outdoors” as a welcoming place for Black people. It was seen as a space where we might feel uncomfortable or even threatened. But to me, those perceptions didn’t matter. When I finally learned to swim, it felt like I had unlocked a profound and personal secret of strength and freedom.
I once wondered why enslaved Africans didn’t jump from ships near shore and swim to freedom. Later I learned that most coastal waters in West Africa were filled with poisonous fish, making swimming uncommon and dangerous. Now, whenever I enter the ocean, I remember my ancestors for whom the sea was a place of terror rather than freedom.
Only after my grandmother’s death did I learn she wasn’t a strong swimmer herself. She had been brushing the ocean floor with her feet all along, keeping us afloat while teaching me rhythm and trust. Her quiet deception was not a lie but a profound act of bravery and courage. Though she hadn’t mastered it herself, my grandmother was determined to teach me to swim — not for the strokes, but for the strength and self-belief that would keep me afloat in life.
24. How was the grandmother different from other women at the beach?
A. She stayed with Black families only.
B. She avoided getting her hair and suits wet.
C. She seemed to swim with ease and strength.
D. She stood outside of the swimming section.
25. What does the author realize about African slaves?
A. They were poisonous by sea creatures.
B. They didn’t enjoy outdoor activities.
C. They rarely swam due to natural dangers.
D. They could have easily escaped by swimming.
26. Why did the grandmother teach the author to swim?
A. To challenge her limits. B. To build her confidence.
C. To prepare her for dangers at sea. D. To prove Black people could swim.
27. Which title best suits the passage?
A. Overcoming Fears at Revere Beach B. A Summer That Changed My Childhood
C. Breaking Self-Doubt and Cultural Bias D. Grandmother’s Empowering Lessons
【答案】24. C 25. C 26. B 27. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者回忆祖母教自己游泳的经历,以及这段经历对作者产生的深远影响。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“At nine years old, I didn’t realize how extraordinary it was for me and my grandmother to travel from our Black neighborhood to the mainly white Revere Beach. While Black families stayed together in one section, rarely venturing out alone, my grandmother stood out — confident and athletic while swimming, unlike the other women worried about their hair or suits. (九岁那年,我还没意识到,我和奶奶从我们居住的黑人社区,前往以白人为主的里维尔海滩,是一件多么不寻常的事。当时黑人家庭都聚在海滩的一个区域,很少有人单独外出,而奶奶却格外显眼 —— 她游泳时自信又矫健,不像其他女性那样顾虑头发或泳衣是否会乱。)”可知,祖母和其他女人不一样,她在游泳时自信且健壮,而其他女人担心自己的头发或衣服。因此,祖母与其他女人的不同之处在于她游泳时显得轻松而有力。故选C。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“I once wondered why enslaved Africans didn’t jump from ships near shore and swim to freedom. Later I learned that most coastal waters in West Africa were filled with poisonous fish, making swimming uncommon and dangerous. (我曾经想知道为什么被奴役的非洲人没有从靠近岸边的船上跳下来,游到自由的地方。后来我了解到,西非的大部分沿海水域都充满了有毒的鱼,这使得游泳变得不常见且危险。)”可知,作者后来了解到,西非的大部分沿海水域都充满了有毒的鱼,这使得游泳变得不常见且危险,所以非洲奴隶很少游泳是因为自然危险。故选C。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Though she hadn’t mastered it herself, my grandmother was determined to teach me to swim — not for the strokes, but for the strength and self-belief that would keep me afloat in life. (虽然祖母自己并没有掌握游泳,但她决心教我游泳——不是为了划水,而是为了让我在生活中保持力量和自信。)”可知,祖母教作者游泳不是为了划水,而是为了让她在生活中保持力量和自信。因此,祖母教作者游泳是为了建立她的自信。故选B。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是根据最后一段中“Her quiet deception was not a lie but a profound act of bravery and courage. Though she hadn’t mastered it herself, my grandmother was determined to teach me to swim — not for the strokes, but for the strength and self-belief that would keep me afloat in life. (她安静的欺骗不是谎言,而是一种深刻的勇敢和勇气行为。虽然祖母自己并没有掌握游泳,但她决心教我游泳——不是为了划水,而是为了让我在生活中保持力量和自信。)”可知,文章主要讲述了作者回忆祖母教自己游泳的经历,祖母虽然自己不会游泳,但仍然勇敢地教作者游泳,让她在生活中保持力量和自信,这段经历对作者产生了深远的影响,让她克服了自我怀疑和文化偏见。因此,D选项“Grandmother’s Empowering Lessons (祖母的赋能课)”最能概括文章的主旨。故选D。
C(选择性必修三Unit 8 Literature)
“Klara and the Sun,” by Kazuo Ishiguro, takes readers on a journey through the mind of Klara, one of many artificial friends who have been built to keep lonely children company. Klara is a one-of-a-kind machine whose keen observational abilities are praised by the human beings who meet her. She may be a machine, but her thoughts and emotions are deeply real.
Klara is chosen at the store by a young girl named Josie who connects with her immediately. She comes home with her to learn that Josie has a serious illness. Devoted to Josie, Klara does all she can to keep her safe and well.
Ishiguro creates a fascinating world through Klara’s eyes as she struggles to understand how humans operate, while at the same time working through a growing number of feelings of her own. Throughout the book, Klara is more or less treated as a person and sometimes, you may even forget that she isn’t one. Through her perspective, you will gain a fresh viewpoint on human relationships and emotion.
It feels like the perfect book to curl up with in a cozy corner on a Sunday afternoon. Ishiguro allows the story to unfold slowly and organically, inviting readers to sink into its world and revealing enough on every page to continue arousing curiosity. As you follow Klara’s story, you begin to see the world through her unique eyes, reflecting on whether someone like Klara can ever truly represent the human spirit. Meanwhile, the line between artificial intelligence and human heart seems to blur.
Overall, Klara and the Sun offers a quiet, reflective reading experience that may not be as sharply intense as some of Ishiguro’s other books, but it still delivers a thoughtful exploration of love, emotions and the role of technology in our lives. It’s a bittersweet and comforting read, one that echoes in your mind and your thoughts long after you’ve turned the final page.
28. How is Klara unique among her kind?
A. She is a sharp observer. B. She has a human-like appearance
C. She can cure children’s illnesses. D. She stands out for its special design.
29. What can readers learn from Klara’s perspective?
A. The way humans operate. B. The inner feelings of AI.
C. A new insight into humanity D. A model for AI-human harmony.
30. What does the underlined phrase “curl up with” probably mean in Para 4?
A. Finish in a hurry. B. Analyze in depth.
C. Discuss with friends. D. Read with comfort.
31. What does the author think of Klara and the Sun?

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了对石黑一雄所著的《克拉拉与太阳》一书的评价与介绍。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Klara is a one-of-a-kind machine whose keen observational abilities are praised by the human beings who meet her.(克拉拉是一台独一无二的机器,她敏锐的观察能力受到遇见她的人类的称赞)”可知,克拉拉在她同类中独特之处在于她是一个敏锐的观察者。故选A。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Through her perspective, you will gain a fresh viewpoint on human relationships and emotion.(通过她的视角,你将获得对人际关系和情感的新观点)”可知,读者可以从克拉拉的视角获得对人类的新见解。故选C。
【30题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段中“It feels like the perfect book to curl up with in a cozy corner on a Sunday afternoon. Ishiguro allows the story to unfold slowly and organically, inviting readers to sink into its world and revealing enough on every page to continue arousing curiosity.(这本书仿佛是为在周日午后在舒适的角落里curl up with而量身打造的。石黑一雄让故事缓缓展开,自然流畅,邀请读者沉浸其中,每页都透露足够的信息,持续激发读者的好奇心)”可知,这本书适合在一个舒适的角落里慢慢地读,故curl up with意思是“舒适地阅读”。故选D。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Overall, Klara and the Sun offers a quiet, reflective reading experience that may not be as sharply intense as some of Ishiguro’s other books, but it still delivers a thoughtful exploration of love, emotions and the role of technology in our lives. It’s a bittersweet and comforting read, one that echoes in your mind and your thoughts long after you’ve turned the final page.(总的来说,《克拉拉与太阳》提供了一种安静、反思的阅读体验,可能不像石黑一雄的其他一些书那样尖锐强烈,但它仍然对爱、情感以及科技在我们生活中的角色进行了深思熟虑的探索。这是一种苦乐参半、令人欣慰的阅读体验,即使在你翻到最后一页之后,它仍会在你的脑海中回响)”可推知,作者认为《克拉拉与太阳》这本书是体贴入微且令人欣慰的。故选B。
D(选择性必修一Unit 1 Relationships)
Picture this, you win two tickets to a sold-out concert and eagerly text to ask your friends if they’d like to join. There comes their response “Maybe.” Your mood immediately turns, for you need to wait for their decisions before you can figure out your plans for the concert.
If you’ve experienced anything like the above anecdote (趣闻), you’re not alone. People responding “maybe” to invitations is a common yet annoying aspect of social life. What goes on in people’s heads when they aren’t sure whether to accept an invitation? Social invitations can be a delicate dance. People often misread what someone extending an invitation wants to hear and overestimate an inviter’s likelihood of preferring a “maybe” over a “no.” Moreover, they fail to realize how much more disrespected people feel when they receive a “maybe” in response to their invitation.
Naturally, we wanted to figure out why this awkward dynamic plays out. We found that it’s largely due to something called “motivated reasoning.” Motivated reasoning occurs when a person interprets information in a biased (有偏差的) way to suit their own wishes. In other words, invitees convince themselves that inviters want to hear “maybe” instead of “no” because a “maybe” is better for the invitees, allowing them to leave their options open. Besides, people tend to overestimate the negative consequences of saying “no” to invitations, thinking it will upset, anger and disappoint inviters.
However, there were certain situations that made people more comfortable saying “no” to an invitation. When recipients of an invitation put themselves in the shoes of the person extending the invitation, they are more likely to realize that they’d probably prefer a definite answer. When the participants get invited to do something they didn’t want to do, they had no desire to keep their options open. The motivated reasoning then became irrelevant.
While navigating social situations can be tricky, being direct and definite is sometimes best. It might reduce your options. But it’ll keep those who invite you from being left uncertain and maybe they will still think of you when the next concert comes to town.
32. Why is the concert anecdote mentioned at the beginning?
A. To explain the background of the invitation.
B. To stress the importance of quick replies.
C. To encourage immediate decision- making.
D. To introduce a common social situation.
33. What is the main reason for the response of “maybe” to an invitation?
A. A biased interpretation of social cues.
B. A desire for harmonious communication.
C. An underestimation of refusal consequence.
D. An understanding of the inviter’s expectation.
34. What is the author’s suggestion in the last paragraph?
A. Keeping your options open for better plans.
B. Accepting invitations to maintain friendships.
C. Prioritizing clear response over open options.
D. Thinking twice before refusing an invitation.
35. What’s the passage’s main purpose?
A. To explore why people say “maybe” and advocate clear replies.
B. To explain the hidden consequences of “maybe” in social invitations.
C. To discuss the awkwardness of uncertain replies and share advice.
D. To keep options open by changing replies from “no” to “maybe”.
【答案】32. D 33. A 34. C 35. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要讨论了人们收到邀请时回复“Maybe (可能)”这一常见社交现象,分析其背后原因及特定应对情况,并给出直接回应的建议。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段讲述演唱会门票邀请朋友得到“可能”回复的趣闻后,第二段紧接着指出“If you’ve experienced anything like the above anecdote (趣闻), you’re not alone. People responding ‘maybe’ to invitations is a common yet annoying aspect of social life. (如果你有过类似上述趣闻的经历,你并不孤单。人们对邀请回复‘可能’是社交生活中常见却令人困扰的一个方面。)” 由此可见,开篇的演唱会趣闻是为了引出“对邀请回复‘可能’”这一常见社交场景。故选D。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“We found that it’s largely due to something called “motivated reasoning.” Motivated reasoning occurs when a person interprets information in a biased (有偏差的) way to suit their own wishes. (我们发现,这在很大程度上是由一种叫做“动机性推理”的东西导致的。当一个人以偏见的方式解读信息以满足自己的愿望时,就会发生动机性推理。)” 可知,对邀请回复“可能”的主要原因是受邀者存在偏见性的信息解读,即对社交线索的偏见性理解。故选A。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“While navigating social situations can be tricky, being direct and definite is sometimes best. It might reduce your options. But it’ll keep those who invite you from being left uncertain (虽然应对社交场合可能很棘手,但直接明确有时是最好的选择。这可能会减少你的选择,但它会让那些邀请你的人不会陷入不确定的境地)” 可知,作者建议优先选择明确的回复,而非保留选择余地。故选C。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。文章开篇引入“可能”回复的社交现象,第三段明确“We wanted to figure out why this awkward dynamic plays out. We found that it’s largely due to something called “motivated reasoning.” (我们想弄清楚这种尴尬的互动为什么会发生。我们发现,这在很大程度上是由一种叫做“动机性推理”的东西导致的)”,即核心部分在探索人们说“可能”的原因;最后一段则提出“being direct and definite is sometimes best (直接明确有时是最好的选择)”,由此可知,文章目的是倡导明确回复。故选A。

Over the last few years, there has been a trend to focus on gratitude.

Indeed, for all the research on the broad benefits of expressing gratitude, it is not for everyone.(关于感恩练习如何帮助焦虑或临床抑郁症患者的研究还很缺乏。事实上,尽管所有关于表达感激的广泛好处的研究都表明,这并不适用于所有人。)”,这说明感恩也不是适合每一个人,A选项“That is, it’s not a cure-all.(也就是说,它不是万灵药。)”说明感恩不是适合每一个人,因此承接上文,符合语境,故选A。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了聚焦宣纸文化的电视剧《种墨园》的开拍信息、剧情内容及创作亮点。
【56题详解】
考查副词。句意:据制片方消息,一部致力于弘扬千年宣纸文化的电视剧《种墨园》,于9月21日在安徽宣城正式官宣开机,拍摄周期为80天。空处修饰动词announced,需要用副词形式,public的副词是publicly,意为“公开地;正式地”。故填publicly。
【57题详解】
考查冠词。句意:据制片方消息,一部致力于弘扬千年宣纸文化的电视剧《种墨园》,于9月21日在安徽宣城正式官宣开机,拍摄周期为80天。schedule是可数名词单数,此处表示“一个80天的拍摄周期”,为泛指;且80-day的发音以元音音素开头,所以用不定冠词an。故填an。
【58题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:该剧由中央电视台出品,宋业明执导,讲述了一位年轻女子辞去北京的工作,回到家乡照顾生病的母亲的故事。句子陈述的是电视剧的基本剧情,为客观事实,应用一般现在时;主语the story是第三人称单数,谓语动词follow也需要用第三人称单数形式。故填follows。
【59题详解】
考查介词。句意:在获得当地政府的一份工作后,她发现传统宣纸产业如今正面临日益加剧的衰落危机。a position as + 职业 / 身份是固定搭配,意为 “一份……的职位”,此处表示“当地政府官员的职位”。故填as。
【60题详解】
考查宾语从句引导词。句意:在获得当地政府的一份工作后,她发现传统宣纸产业如今正面临日益加剧的衰落危机。空处引导宾语从句,作动词discovers的宾语,从句中缺少宾语,且指代“宣纸产业面临的事情”,应用连接代词 what。故填what。
【61题详解】
考查形容词。句意:她决心重振宣纸产业,于是推出了多项举措,比如开发宣纸笔记本、争取北京宣纸壁纸订单,以及举办一场弘扬文房四宝的文化节 —— 文房四宝是一个传统术语,指的是笔、墨、纸、砚。be determined to do sth.是固定搭配,意为“决心做某事”;此处省略be,用形容词determined作状语,表主语的状态,且首字母需大写。故填Determined。
【62题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:她决心重振宣纸产业,于是推出了多项举措,比如开发宣纸笔记本、争取北京宣纸壁纸订单,以及举办一场弘扬文房四宝的文化节 —— 文房四宝是一个传统术语,指的是笔、墨、纸、砚。initiative是可数名词,意为“举措;倡议”;根据空后such as developing... securing... and organizing...可知,此处表示多项举措,应用复数形式initiatives。故填initiatives。
【63题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:她决心重振宣纸产业,于是推出了多项举措,比如开发宣纸笔记本、争取北京宣纸壁纸订单,以及举办一场弘扬文房四宝的文化节 —— 文房四宝是一个传统术语,指的是笔、墨、纸、砚。句子已有谓语动词is,空处需用非谓语动词;term和refer to之间是主动关系,应用现在分词作后置定语,修饰term。故填referring。
【64题详解】
考查时态语态。句意:宋导演透露,他被这部剧独特的结构和人物设定所吸引,尤其是剧中基层政府官员的视角。空处是宾语从句的谓语动词,根据主句谓语动词revealed可知,从句应用相应的过去时态;he和draw之间是被动关系,所以用一般过去时的被动语态,主语he是第三人称单数,be动词用was。若强调“被吸引”发生在“透露”之前,用过去完成时的被动语态had been drawn。故填was drawn/had been drawn。
【65题详解】
考查形容词。句意:他也被一个宣纸匠人家庭的戏剧张力所吸引,这个家庭在守护传统、传承手艺和面向未来创新的过程中面临着诸多挑战。空处修饰名词tension,需要用形容词形式,drama的形容词是dramatic,意为“戏剧的;戏剧性的”。故填dramatic。

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My love for dance began when I was very young and I would dream to be a star dancer from time to time. With the drama festival approaching, the school’s drama club had released a notice for the dancer audition (试镜) for The Twelve Dancing Princesses. And of course I was the first one to sign up.
As I left the stage after my audition at school, I could feel it. The power. The future. I knew that someday when dancers’ magazines wrote about me, they would say this moment was when my rise to a star began.
My ballet slippers hurt my feet, but I figured that was helpful. In The Twelve Dancing Princesses, the princesses danced all night so they probably had foot pain, too. My performance was more genuine because of my pain. I needed to show my devotion even when I wasn’t on stage, so I approached Mr. Ellison, the drama club advisor. He told me that casting (角色分配) will be posted tomorrow.“ Thank you, sir,” I said, using the almost British pronunciation of Hollywood stars in the 1940s. I was so sure that Mr. Ellison would cast me as a princess.
The next morning, I went to read the cast list. The twelve princesses were first, by number. I scanned from One to Twelve, but none by me. At the bottom of the casting list, my name finally appeared. My role was a really small one, an old woman who helped a soldier, not one of the princesses! I was desperately disappointed. Mr. Ellison must have made a mistake! No one else in the school had my skills or preparation!.
I found him in his classroom, but he insisted there was no mistake and emphasized that every role in a play was important. Unable to accept the fact, I burst into tears. Mr. Ellison managed to calm me down and encouraged me to have a try in the rehearsal (排练).
注意:1. 续写词数应为 150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The next day, I dragged myself to the rehearsal.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Finally, the great day arrived and “the old woman” couldn’t wait to get on stage.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】The next day, I dragged myself to the rehearsal, still feeling disheartened. As we began, I watched the princesses dance gracefully, a twinge of jealousy stirring within me. But then, as I started to act out my role, something shifted. Mr. Ellison’s words echoed in my mind, “Every role is important.” Gradually, I immersed myself in the character of the old woman. My lines flowed naturally, and I found a newfound respect for my role. To my surprise, my performance drew applause from my peers. This small role, I realized, could be a powerful one.
Finally, the great day arrived, and “the old woman” couldn’t wait to get on stage. As the curtains opened, a rush of excitement filled me. I delivered my lines with conviction, feeling more alive on stage than I had ever been. The audience laughed at my humorous lines, and I felt a sense of accomplishment. When the final curtain fell, the applause was deafening. Mr. Ellison’s words had been right — every role was important. I had found my place in the spotlight, not as a princess, but as an old woman who helped a soldier. And it was enough.
