B Last summer, a group of students from Oregon State University participated in a “mini bee school” course at the Dufferin Park Wetlands in Kamloops, British Columbia (BC). During the course, they got along well with bee-loving locals. Under the guidance of professional entomologists (昆虫学者) like Boonie Zand, the students took a two-day workshop on catching, observing, and cataloging bees. In the end, the students walked away as trained contributors for a new “bee atlas (地图册)” for the Native Bee Society of BC — the first bee record of its kind in the Canadian province. Modelled after the Oregon Bee Atlas, the record was designed to aid conservation efforts by training locals to identify bee species — and help classify new ones. Months later, the growing bee atlas has proved very fruitful. So far, BC Bee Atlas volunteers have collected over 2,400 samples in the province and recorded 110 different species. They even discovered several new specimens of Perdita, or “fairy bees” — unique little bees that are less than two millimeters long. And Zand thinks the new bees present an exciting mystery. “In 2018 a species checklist was published for BC, and it has two species of Perdita on it,” Zand explained. “We collected a few specimens of Perdita that does not occur on that list, and so it’s not one of the two species that we know here, so I’m still trying to figure out exactly what species it is.” Zand said Kamloops, Canada is an ideal place of bee diversity because bees love the region’s hot, dry climate. “You’re going to have a lot more species that you might find there than in other places, like on the coast or further up in the north,” she said, in reference to the atlas’ growing catalog. “So it’s a great spot to find new records, which help us learn more about the bee diversity of BC.” 4. Why did the students participate in the bee school? A. To learn to raise bees. B. To acquire credits. C. To help conserve a species. D. To observe insect behaviors. 5. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The characteristics of fairy bees. B. The success of the bee atlas initiative. C. The decline of local bee populations. D. The establishment of the bee atlas project. 6. How did Zand feel at the finding of the fairy bees? A. Curious. B. Awkward. C. Confused. D. Calm. 7. What makes Kamloops an ideal habitat for bees according to Zand? A. Global warming. B. Rich plant variety. C. Human protection efforts. D. Geographic conditions. C When we talk about sustainability in the tech sector, the conversation often begins and ends with e-waste. The core issue isn’t merely the waste itself, but the system behind it, driven by overproduction and excessive consumption (过度消费). The smartphones, laptops and tablets we upgrade so frequently are responsible not only for mountains of discarded electronics but also for vast carbon emissions (排放), most of which are generated before the device even reaches our hands. True sustainability in consumer electronics doesn’t start at the point of disposal (处理); it starts at the point of production. If we want to curb the environmental impact of our tech, we need to shift our focus at the source and rethink how and how often devices are made, marketed and consumed. Addressing the environmental harms of fast tech requires a shift from overconsumption to thoughtful, sustainable care. This begins with making the most of the devices we already own. Extending their lifespan, rather than upgrading prematurely, is one of the most effective ways to reduce carbon emissions and e-waste. When devices break, repair should be the first option. However, for some consumers, limited access to parts and support can make this difficult. Where repair isn’t possible, reselling to a professional is a far better choice than letting it gather dust in a drawer. And when a replacement is genuinely needed, choosing a second-hand or professionally repaired device can drastically reduce the environmental footprint compared to buying a new one. Recycling still plays a role, but it should be seen as a last resort, not the go-to solution. After all, no amount of recycling can make up for the emissions created in the production phase, which is where the majority of a device’s impact lies. This shift in mindset isn’t just about personal choices; it’s about acknowledging that the way we use and hold onto our tech has significant effects across the entire system. Thoughtful consumption matters. But to have a lasting impact, it must be part of a broader, structural shift across the industry. 8. What does the underlined part “curb” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Ignore. B. Control. C. Measure. D. Promote. 9. What does the author suggest to lower e-waste? A. Recycling more frequently. B. Shifting the design of devices. C. Upgrading devices annually. D. Lengthening the use of devices. 10. What should consumers do if a device is beyond repair? A. Take it apart. B. Store it for future use. C. Resell it. D. Throw it into regular trash. 11. Why is recycling positioned as a final solution? A. It fails to address emissions. B. It is a personal choice. C. It is inconvenient. D. It increases the cost. D Studies have shown that many people don’t commute by bike due mainly to a fear of being hit by cars. A new bike-mounted proximity (接近) sensor has been designed to help such folks, by objectively telling them which streets are the safest for cyclists. The new device (装置), ProxiCycle, simply replaces the bike’s existing left-side handlebar plug, where it uses two special light sensors to monitor the spaces directly beside and immediately behind the bicycle. Whenever an object is detected, the ProxiCycle employs a Bluetooth module to transmit the sensor data to an app on the cyclist’s smartphone. That app uses a special computer program to determine if the detected object was an automobile, and if it passed less than 1 m from the bike. If the reading meets both of those criteria, it is saved as an example of a motorized vehicle that passed the cyclist too closely. The idea is that over a relatively short period of time, readings gathered from multiple ProxiCycle users could be used to paint a realistic picture of just how dangerous various streets actually are. In an initial test of the technology, 7 cyclists rode through Seattle with both the device and an action camera mounted on their bike. Close-passing incidents recorded by the ProxiCycle were found to match up with those captured by the camera. Next, 15 Seattle cyclists used the device while going on a combined total of 240 bike rides over a two-month period. They recorded 2,050 close passes in that time, with the majority of the incidents taking place in locations where higher-than-average numbers of bike-car collisions had already been reported. The incidents also mostly occurred in areas that cyclists had previously perceived as being dangerous. Importantly, however, the sensor data proved to be a more accurate indicator of just how dangerous those places actually were. Researchers now plan on conducting larger-scale studies, which will include testing the ProxiCycle in other cities. 12. What is the primary reason why people avoid cycling according to the study? A. Concern of safety. B. Unskilled riding. C. Fear of passers-by. D. Lack of bikeway. 13. How does the ProxiCycle sensor assist cyclists? A. By monitoring traffic. B. By sending GPS signals. C. By giving out warnings. D. By sensing the safety distance. 14. What can we know about the sensor from the last paragraph? A. It is perceived dangerous. B. It is still in the testing stage. C. It can ensure riders’ security. D. It records incidents on roads. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Improving Traffic Safety for Bicycle Users B. Smartphone Apps for Navigation Assistance C. ProxiCycle: a Sensor to Enhance Cyclist Safety D Developing Environmentally Friendly Bike Materials 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。 Volunteering: a Rewarding Experience Last summer, I spent every Saturday morning at Sunshine Nursing Home. The air there always carried a faint scent of chrysanthemums from the garden. Arriving at 8 o’clock, I swept leaves in the yards, arranged donated books on shelves, and sat with elderly residents who often waited by the window. ____16____ Mrs. Li, 82, shared stories of her youth — like meeting her husband at a town fair; I listened while she mended old clothes. Once, we held a small birthday party for three residents, singing and cutting a cake they’d baked. Laughter filled the room, warmer than the summer sun. ____17____ Those hours taught me to notice small, sweet details. Mr. Zhang’s eyes would light up when talking about his old garden, and Grandma Wang’s soft “thank you” could brighten my whole morning. I learned to slow down my speech and to be patient when their memories drifted. ____18____ These moments wove a sense of duty in me — a desire to show up not out of obligation, but real care. Communities grow strong when people help each other. That nursing home, once quiet most days, now has more young people stopping by. ____19____ They bring joy, and small acts like reading or chatting quickly soften gaps between generations. Trust builds easily this way. No act of kindness is too small. A listening afternoon, a helping hand with chores, and a warm chat — these little things build a kinder world. Step forward and try volunteering yourself. ____20____ A. It changed how I see small acts. B. These people kept me busy but happy. C You’ll get more than you give in return. D. I also talked with them about their daily lives. E My time there taught me important life lessons. F. They come to read, chat, or just sit with the elderly. G. This patience helped me connect better with the elderly. 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。 When my son Benjamin was 3, taking him to public places felt like preparing for a battle.

I won’t do it again.” I expected the woman to ____30____ shaking her head. Instead, she smiled warmly. “You have done a great job in ____31____ your child,” she said. The words hit me like ____32____ breaking through clouds. All these months of self-doubt ____33____ at that single moment. This was a turning point for me. It was the first time a ____34____ had recognized my efforts as a parent. Now, as Benjamin finishes his junior year of high school, I still ____35____ that feeling.

It so happened that their birthday falls on the same day. As they thought about how to mark this significant coming-of-age milestone, they wanted to do something truly special. They often talked about making a positive impact on the world around them. “Turning 18 means adulthood,” Evan suggested. “Why not start by lifting others?” Liliana recalled a hot video on social media where strangers left flowers for hospital visitors. “That’s it!” she said. “We could do that — turn our birthday into a ripple (涟漪) of hope.” They planned carefully. First, they made a list of items they needed: flowers to bring a touch of beauty, pens to write heartfelt messages, and notecards to convey their thoughts. Then they would go to Hartford Hospital at dusk on their birthday eve. Evan emphasized simplicity: “Messages like ‘One step at a time’ might comfort souls.” Liliana added, “We’ll film it carefully, not for fame, but to spread the idea.” On the day of their birthday, they went to Hartford Hospital with excitement and anticipation. They entered the parking lot and started their mission. They walked around, carefully placing a flower and a hand- written note on each car’s windshield. The notes were simple yet full of power, like “One step at a time”, “Get better”, and “You’ll get through this”. Among the cars, they noticed a car that seemed to have been there for a long time. They guessed that the owner might be going through a particularly tough time. They took an extra large bouquet of purple flowers and wrote a more detailed note. As they were about to place it on the windshield, they saw a woman, who they later knew named Amel Zubeidy, walking towards the car. 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。 Liliana and Evan walked up to her with smiles on their faces. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ To their surprise, the video went viral (走红). ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025——2026学年全市普通高中联盟高二上学期期中考试 英语试卷 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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。每段对话读两遍。 例: How much is the shirt?

During the course, they got along well with bee-loving locals. Under the guidance of professional entomologists (昆虫学者) like Boonie Zand, the students took a two-day workshop on catching, observing, and cataloging bees. In the end, the students walked away as trained contributors for a new “bee atlas (地图册)” for the Native Bee Society of BC — the first bee record of its kind in the Canadian province. Modelled after the Oregon Bee Atlas, the record was designed to aid conservation efforts by training locals to identify bee species — and help classify new ones. Months later, the growing bee atlas has proved very fruitful. So far, BC Bee Atlas volunteers have collected over 2,400 samples in the province and recorded 110 different species. They even discovered several new specimens of Perdita, or “fairy bees” — unique little bees that are less than two millimeters long. And Zand thinks the new bees present an exciting mystery. “In 2018 a species checklist was published for BC, and it has two species of Perdita on it,” Zand explained. “We collected a few specimens of Perdita that does not occur on that list, and so it’s not one of the two species that we know here, so I’m still trying to figure out exactly what species it is.” Zand said Kamloops, Canada is an ideal place of bee diversity because bees love the region’s hot, dry climate. “You’re going to have a lot more species that you might find there than in other places, like on the coast or further up in the north,” she said, in reference to the atlas’ growing catalog. “So it’s a great spot to find new records, which help us learn more about the bee diversity of BC.” 4. Why did the students participate in the bee school? A. To learn to raise bees. B. To acquire credits. C. To help conserve a species. D. To observe insect behaviors. 5. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The characteristics of fairy bees. B. The success of the bee atlas initiative. C. The decline of local bee populations. D. The establishment of the bee atlas project. 6. How did Zand feel at the finding of the fairy bees? A. Curious. B. Awkward. C. Confused. D. Calm. 7. What makes Kamloops an ideal habitat for bees according to Zand? A. Global warming. B. Rich plant variety. C. Human protection efforts. D. Geographic conditions. 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了俄勒冈州立大学的学生在加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省（BC省）参加“迷你蜜蜂学校”课程的经历。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Modelled after the Oregon Bee Atlas, the record was designed to aid conservation efforts by training locals to identify bee species — and help classify new ones. (该记录模仿俄勒冈蜜蜂图谱模式，旨在通过培训当地人识别蜜蜂物种、帮助分类新物种来助力保护工作。)”可知，学生参加蜜蜂学校的目的是帮助保护蜜蜂物种。故选C。 【5题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“Months later, the growing bee atlas has proved very fruitful. So far, BC Bee Atlas volunteers have collected over 2,400 samples in the province and recorded 110 different species. They even discovered several new specimens of Perdita, or ‘fairy bees’ — unique little bees that are less than two millimeters long. (几个月后，这个不断完善的蜜蜂图谱被证明成果丰硕。到目前为止，不列颠哥伦比亚省蜜蜂图谱的志愿者们已经在该省收集了超过2400个样本，记录了110个不同的物种。他们甚至发现了数只Perdita蜂（又称“仙女蜂”）的新标本——这是一种体长不足两毫米的独特小型蜂类。)” 可知，该段核心围绕蜜蜂图谱项目取得的成功展开。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“And Zand thinks the new bees present an exciting mystery. (赞德认为这些新蜜蜂带来了一个令人兴奋的谜团。)” 以及她后续的解释“We collected a few specimens of Perdita that does not occur on that list, and so it's not one of the two species that we know here, so I’m still trying to figure out exactly what species it is. (我们采集到了数份Perdita蜂标本，这些蜂种并未出现在那份名录上，因此它们不属于我们目前已知的两个本地品种，我仍在尝试弄清它们具体属于哪个物种。)” 可知，赞德对发现仙女蜂的态度是好奇的。故选A。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“Zand said Kamloops, Canada is an ideal place of bee diversity because bees love the region’s hot, dry climate. (赞德说，加拿大的坎卢普斯是蜜蜂多样性的理想之地，因为蜜蜂喜欢该地区炎热干燥的气候。)” 可知，坎卢普斯的地理气候条件使其成为蜜蜂的理想栖息地。故选D。 C When we talk about sustainability in the tech sector, the conversation often begins and ends with e-waste. The core issue isn’t merely the waste itself, but the system behind it, driven by overproduction and excessive consumption (过度消费). The smartphones, laptops and tablets we upgrade so frequently are responsible not only for mountains of discarded electronics but also for vast carbon emissions (排放), most of which are generated before the device even reaches our hands. True sustainability in consumer electronics doesn’t start at the point of disposal (处理); it starts at the point of production. If we want to curb the environmental impact of our tech, we need to shift our focus at the source and rethink how and how often devices are made, marketed and consumed. Addressing the environmental harms of fast tech requires a shift from overconsumption to thoughtful, sustainable care. This begins with making the most of the devices we already own. Extending their lifespan, rather than upgrading prematurely, is one of the most effective ways to reduce carbon emissions and e-waste. When devices break, repair should be the first option. However, for some consumers, limited access to parts and support can make this difficult. Where repair isn’t possible, reselling to a professional is a far better choice than letting it gather dust in a drawer. And when a replacement is genuinely needed, choosing a second-hand or professionally repaired device can drastically reduce the environmental footprint compared to buying a new one. Recycling still plays a role, but it should be seen as a last resort, not the go-to solution. After all, no amount of recycling can make up for the emissions created in the production phase, which is where the majority of a device’s impact lies. This shift in mindset isn’t just about personal choices; it’s about acknowledging that the way we use and hold onto our tech has significant effects across the entire system. Thoughtful consumption matters. But to have a lasting impact, it must be part of a broader, structural shift across the industry. 8. What does the underlined part “curb” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Ignore. B. Control. C. Measure. D. Promote. 9 What does the author suggest to lower e-waste? A. Recycling more frequently. B. Shifting the design of devices. C. Upgrading devices annually. D. Lengthening the use of devices. 10. What should consumers do if a device is beyond repair? A. Take it apart. B. Store it for future use. C. Resell it. D. Throw it into regular trash. 11. Why is recycling positioned as a final solution? A. It fails to address emissions. B. It is a personal choice. C. It is inconvenient. D. It increases the cost. 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了科技行业中的可持续性问题，特别是电子废弃物和碳排放问题。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段“The smartphones, laptops and tablets we upgrade so frequently are responsible not only for mountains of discarded electronics but also for vast carbon emissions (排放), most of which are generated before the device even reaches our hands. (我们频繁升级的智能手机、笔记本电脑和平板电脑不仅造成了堆积如山的废弃电子产品，还造成了大量的碳排放，其中大部分碳排放甚至在这些设备到达我们手中之前就已经产生了。)”和第二段“If we want to curb the environmental impact of our tech, we need to shift our focus at the source and rethink how and how often devices are made, marketed and consumed. (如果我们想curb 科技产品对环境的影响，就需要从源头转移焦点，重新思考设备的生产、营销和消费方式及频率。)” 可知，电子设备带来的环境问题，此处提出针对性解决方案想要抑制科技产品对环境的影响，因此“curb”应表示“控制、抑制”之意。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Extending their lifespan, rather than upgrading prematurely, is one of the most effective ways to reduce carbon emissions and e-waste. (延长设备使用寿命，而非过早升级，是减少碳排放和电子垃圾最有效的方法之一。)” 可知，作者建议通过延长设备使用时间来减少电子垃圾。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Where repair isn’t possible, reselling to a professional is a far better choice than letting it gather dust in a drawer. (如果无法维修，转售给专业人士远比让它在抽屉里积灰要好得多。)” 可知，设备无法维修时，消费者应选择转售。故选C。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“After all, no amount of recycling can make up for the emissions created in the production phase, which is where the majority of a device’s impact lies. (毕竟，再多的回收也无法弥补生产阶段产生的碳排放，而这正是设备对环境造成影响的主要环节。)” 可知，回收被定位为最后手段的原因是它无法解决生产阶段产生的碳排放问题。故选A。 D Studies have shown that many people don’t commute by bike due mainly to a fear of being hit by cars. A new bike-mounted proximity (接近) sensor has been designed to help such folks, by objectively telling them which streets are the safest for cyclists. The new device (装置), ProxiCycle, simply replaces the bike’s existing left-side handlebar plug, where it uses two special light sensors to monitor the spaces directly beside and immediately behind the bicycle. Whenever an object is detected, the ProxiCycle employs a Bluetooth module to transmit the sensor data to an app on the cyclist’s smartphone. That app uses a special computer program to determine if the detected object was an automobile, and if it passed less than 1 m from the bike. If the reading meets both of those criteria, it is saved as an example of a motorized vehicle that passed the cyclist too closely. The idea is that over a relatively short period of time, readings gathered from multiple ProxiCycle users could be used to paint a realistic picture of just how dangerous various streets actually are. In an initial test of the technology, 7 cyclists rode through Seattle with both the device and an action camera mounted on their bike. Close-passing incidents recorded by the ProxiCycle were found to match up with those captured by the camera. Next, 15 Seattle cyclists used the device while going on a combined total of 240 bike rides over a two-month period. They recorded 2,050 close passes in that time, with the majority of the incidents taking place in locations where higher-than-average numbers of bike-car collisions had already been reported. The incidents also mostly occurred in areas that cyclists had previously perceived as being dangerous. Importantly, however, the sensor data proved to be a more accurate indicator of just how dangerous those places actually were. Researchers now plan on conducting larger-scale studies, which will include testing the ProxiCycle in other cities. 12. What is the primary reason why people avoid cycling according to the study? A. Concern of safety. B. Unskilled riding. C. Fear of passers-by. D. Lack of bikeway. 13. How does the ProxiCycle sensor assist cyclists? A. By monitoring traffic. B. By sending GPS signals. C. By giving out warnings. D. By sensing the safety distance. 14. What can we know about the sensor from the last paragraph? A. It is perceived dangerous. B. It is still in the testing stage. C. It can ensure riders’ security. D. It records incidents on roads. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Improving Traffic Safety for Bicycle Users B. Smartphone Apps for Navigation Assistance C. ProxiCycle: a Sensor to Enhance Cyclist Safety D. Developing Environmentally Friendly Bike Materials 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。针对人们骑车怕被车撞的顾虑，ProxiCycle传感器可监测车距并记录危险路段，经测试数据准确，未来将开展更大规模测试。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Studies have shown that many people don’t commute by bike due mainly to a fear of being hit by cars.(研究表明，许多人不选择骑自行车出行，主要是因为害怕被汽车撞到)”可知，人们避免骑自行车的主要原因是安全方面的担忧。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“That app uses a special computer program to determine if the detected object was an automobile, and if it passed less than 1 m from the bike.(该应用程序会使用一种特殊的计算机程序来判断所检测到的物体是否为汽车，并且要确认该物体距离自行车的距离是否小于1米)”可知，ProxiCycle传感器通过感知安全距离为骑车者提供帮助。故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Researchers now plan on conducting larger-scale studies, which will include testing the ProxiCycle in other cities.(研究人员目前计划开展更大规模的研究，这些研究将包括在其他城市对ProxiCycle进行测试)”可知，传感器仍处于测试阶段。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“The new device (装置), ProxiCycle, simply replaces the bike’s existing left-side handlebar plug, where it uses two special light sensors to monitor the spaces directly beside and immediately behind the bicycle.(这款名为“ProxiCycle”的新设备，只需替换掉自行车原有的左侧把手端盖，就能通过内置的两个专用光传感器，监测自行车侧方及正后方的区域)”结合文章说明了针对人们骑车怕被车撞的顾虑，ProxiCycle传感器可监测车距并记录危险路段，经测试数据准确，未来将开展更大规模测试。可知，C选项“ProxiCycle：一种能提高骑行者安全性的传感器”最符合文章标题。故选C。 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。 Volunteering: a Rewarding Experience Last summer, I spent every Saturday morning at Sunshine Nursing Home. The air there always carried a faint scent of chrysanthemums from the garden. Arriving at 8 o’clock, I swept leaves in the yards, arranged donated books on shelves, and sat with elderly residents who often waited by the window. ____16____ Mrs. Li, 82, shared stories of her youth — like meeting her husband at a town fair; I listened while she mended old clothes. Once, we held a small birthday party for three residents, singing and cutting a cake they’d baked. Laughter filled the room, warmer than the summer sun. ____17____ Those hours taught me to notice small, sweet details. Mr. Zhang’s eyes would light up when talking about his old garden, and Grandma Wang’s soft “thank you” could brighten my whole morning. I learned to slow down my speech and to be patient when their memories drifted. ____18____ These moments wove a sense of duty in me — a desire to show up not out of obligation, but real care. Communities grow strong when people help each other. That nursing home once quiet most days, now has more young people stopping by. ____19____ They bring joy, and small acts like reading or chatting quickly soften gaps between generations. Trust builds easily this way. No act of kindness is too small. A listening afternoon, a helping hand with chores, and a warm chat — these little things build a kinder world. Step forward and try volunteering yourself. ____20____ A. It changed how I see small acts. B. These people kept me busy but happy. C. You’ll get more than you give in return. D. I also talked with them about their daily lives. E. My time there taught me important life lessons. F. They come to read, chat, or just sit with the elderly. G.

It so happened that their birthday falls on the same day. As they thought about how to mark this significant coming-of-age milestone, they wanted to do something truly special. They often talked about making a positive impact on the world around them. “Turning 18 means adulthood,” Evan suggested. “Why not start by lifting others?” Liliana recalled a hot video on social media where strangers left flowers for hospital visitors. “That’s it!” she said. “We could do that — turn our birthday into a ripple (涟漪) of hope.” They planned carefully. First, they made a list of items they needed: flowers to bring a touch of beauty, pens to write heartfelt messages, and notecards to convey their thoughts. Then they would go to Hartford Hospital at dusk on their birthday eve. Evan emphasized simplicity: “Messages like ‘One step at a time’ might comfort souls.” Liliana added, “We’ll film it carefully, not for fame, but to spread the idea.” On the day of their birthday, they went to Hartford Hospital with excitement and anticipation. They entered the parking lot and started their mission. They walked around, carefully placing a flower and a hand- written note on each car’s windshield. The notes were simple yet full of power, like “One step at a time”, “Get better”, and “You’ll get through this”. Among the cars, they noticed a car that seemed to have been there for a long time. They guessed that the owner might be going through a particularly tough time. They took an extra large bouquet of purple flowers and wrote a more detailed note. As they were about to place it on the windshield, they saw a woman, who they later knew named Amel Zubeidy, walking towards the car. 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。 Liliana and Evan walked up to her with smiles on their faces. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ To their surprise, the video went viral (走红). ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 Liliana and Evan walked up to her with smiles on their faces. They explained that it was their 18th birthday and they wanted to spread hope by giving flowers to hospital visitors. Amel was deeply moved, telling them her husband was seriously ill and she had been feeling hopeless. The bouquet and note brought her great comfort. They chatted briefly, and Amel thanked them repeatedly for the unexpected warmth. To their surprise, the video went viral (走红). It was shared widely on social media, inspiring many people to do small kind acts. Some left flowers at local hospitals, while others sent care packages to patients. Amel later updated that her husband’s condition was improving, and she credited the teenagers’ kindness for lifting their spirits. Liliana and Evan never expected their birthday gift to have such a big impact, proving that small acts of love can create ripples of hope. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Southington高中的两名高三学生Liliana和Evan即将迎来18岁生日，二人决定以特殊方式纪念成年——在生日前夕前往哈特福德医院，为就诊者的车上放置鲜花和手写励志便签，并拍摄视频以传播这一理念，在放置花束时遇到车主Amel的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Liliana和Evan面带微笑走向她。”可知，第一段可描写二人向Amel说明生日行善的初衷、Amel倾诉丈夫重病的困境与内心的绝望，以及花束和便签带给她的慰藉，展现善意带来的即时温暖。 ②由第二段首句内容“令他们惊讶的是，这段视频走红了。”可知，第二段可描写视频走红后的连锁反应、Amel后续反馈丈夫病情好转并归功于二人善意，以及Liliana和Evan对善意影响力的感悟。 2. 续写线索：主动说明初衷——Amel倾诉困境——善意带来慰藉——视频走红——他人效仿——Amel反馈病情——感悟善意力量 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①. 传播：spread/diffuse ②. 倾诉：telling/informing ③. 分享：share/spread ④. 归功于：credit/attribute 情绪类 ①. 感动的：deeply moved/greatly touched ②. 绝望的：hopeless/desperate 【点睛】[高分句型1].
