Join us and plan your trip to Muir Woods National Monument. Where is it? Only a few miles north of San Francisco, in an isolated canyon, grows Muir Woods and lies the park Muir Woods National Monument, which is reached by U. S.101 and California Hwy 1. Roads to the park are steep and winding. When to come? Managed by the National Park Service and open year round from 8:00 am to sunset, the monument is busiest during the weekends and the middle of the day. For the most solitude, we recommend visiting during weekdays, morning hours and late afternoons. Reservations Reservations are now required for all personal vehicles and shuttle riders visiting. Reservations for parking (commercial and motor vehicles) and seats on the Muir Woods shuttle are now required seven days a week, year-round. Parking and shuttle reservations can be made online at GoMuirWoods. com or by phone at 1-800-410-2419. Shuttle (往返巴士) Fare The Muir Woods Shuttle brings visitors from off-site locations to the park and back. It runs during the spring and summer and adult fare is $5 (free for youth ages 15 and under). See the full schedule for start/end dates and exact times. Parking Information and Entry Fee All commercial and motor vehicles require a parking reservation.

Entry Fee is required - $3 per Adult (17 and older). Free for children aged 16 and under. 1. What is the best time to visit the park? A. 7 a.m. on Sundays B. 12 a.m. on Thursdays C. 5 p.m. on Wednesdays D. 11 a.m. on Saturdays 2. How much is the total shuttle fare and entry fee for a couple with their 16-year-old teenager? A. $15 B. $21 C. $12 D. $18 3. What is TRUE about Muir Woods National Monument? A. Shuttles run throughout the year. B. The park is only accessible by bus. C. Parking service can be gained on site without reservation. D. The park is budget-friendly to teenagers aged 15 and under. B In the vast and diverse world of animals, there exists odd gestures that often leave us humans puzzled and amazed. These gestures, which may seem strange or unusual to us, are actually fascinating glimpses into the unique behaviors and communication styles of our pets. Animals want our attention, and sometimes they’re quite obvious about asking for it. Odd gesture are often our pets’ way of telling us to stop what we’re doing and play with them. It’s why Fido constantly follows his tail and why Kitty keeps rolling around. An extremely bored pet may choose “bad” behaviors to cause a reaction! Sure, your dog loves you, but that’s not why he’s licking (舔) your face. A little dog learns to lick his mother’s mouth to obtain a little food, so Spot isn’t kissing you in our sense of the word; he just wants a snack. Cat owners also misinterpret their pets’ kisses. While a cat might lick you to show love, sometimes she’ll do it to comfort herself. One way to tell if her licking is stress-related is whether it goes on for a long period of time. At some point you’ve probably told these words to someone who made you angry. Dogs think similarly, avoiding eye contact with anyone who injures their feelings. Another sign of anger: yawning (打哈欠). A yawning dog may not be tired but anxious, not bored but stressed. Similarly, lip-licking — when there isn’t food around to bring about it — is another sign of threat. You might think your dog is running around the backyard, having the time of his life while you’re away. But the reality is that he’s most likely just sitting in one spot for hours, waiting for you to return with anxiety. Dogs actually prefer to be inside, ideally with their owners. 4. If a dog intends to eat food, which action will it take? A. It stretches its legs, yawning. B. It makes an eye contact with its owner. C. It licks its owner’s face with a soft tongue. D. It runs around the backyard, following its tail. 5. What do we learn about the gesture if a cat constantly kisses itself? A. It feels amused. B. It feels stressed. C. It feels angry. D. It feels tired. 6. When the dog sits for a long time without moving，it reveals ________. A. the dog is eagerly awaiting your return B. the dog displays a sign of tiredness C. the dog is extremely bored to play with you D. the dog displays a sign of embarrassment 7. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Pets: Lovely Animals B. Dogs: Odd gestures C What Your Pet Is Trying to Tell You D. What Should We Do With Our Pets C Farmers often lose crops because they cannot spot diseases fast enough. When a virus (病毒) spreads, it can destroy many plants and hurt nearby farms too. In Tanzania, several viruses attack crops every year. Farmers used to wait six months or more for lab results, but now a small, hand-held tool is changing everything. The tool is made by a British company. It looks like a little box and is easy to carry to any field. First, a farmer cuts a tiny piece from a sick leaf. The tool then pulls out the plant’s DNA and reads it. Within two hours, it tells the farmer which virus is hurting the crop. This speed is very important, because the quicker the answer, the sooner the farmer can act. After testing, farmer Asha Mohamed learned exactly which viruses were on her land. She was given two kinds of new seeds that can control those viruses. She planted them right away. Nine months later, scientists came back and saw tall, healthy plants and a big harvest. The same tool was also used in Kenya on Naomi Mumo’s pawpaw trees. The quick test showed the exact disease, and Naomi could choose the right treatment. Because the tool is small and runs on batteries, farmers can use it anywhere. They do not need a big lab or a long waiting time. By finding viruses early and choosing resistant seeds, farmers protect their crops, their neighbors’ crops, and their income. 8. What was the main problem farmers faced in the past? A. A lack of modern farming techniques. B. A shortage of high-quality farming land. C. A slow process to find diseases in crops. D. An inability to afford necessary supplies. 9. How does the hand-held tool help farmers? A. By watering the crops when needed. B. By increasing the growth speed of the crops. C. By reading the plant’s DNA to find the virus. D. By predicting which diseases will spread next. 10. What happened to farmer Asha Mohamed after she used the tool? A. She got more land to plant her crops on. B. She received money to help pay for her farm. C. She was given special seeds that stop viruses. D. All her crops became completely disease-proof. 11. Where is the text most likely from? A. A diary. B. A guidebook. C. A fairy novel. D. A science magazine. D Imagine that the battery on your mobile phone has run out. You can’t make any calls for help and no one can contact you. You are all alone, and well, not quite. Just reach into your pocket and take out a piece of sugar. Put it into the battery, wait a minute and you are back on the phone. Thanks to a couple of American scientists, this situation could become real. Swadesh Chaudhuri and Derek Lovely have invented the “bacteria (细菌) battery”. This kind of battery gets its power from bacteria that eat sugar and turn it into electricity. “This is a special organism (有机体) ,” Lovely said. “You can get enough electricity to power a cell phone battery for about four days from a spoonful of sugar.” In the past bacteria batteries have been expensive and not long-lasting. But this battery uses a more efficient bacterium that can turn 80 percent of sugar into electrical energy. This is 30 percent more than similar batteries can manage. The bacteria battery could become as small as a household battery. It is also cheap and stable (稳定的) , because sugar can be taken from waste and crops. But the sugar-to-electricity process is not satisfactory as it could take weeks for the bacteria to change a cup of sugar into electricity. And it produces “greenhouse” gases which pollute the environment. The scientists understand there is a lot more work to be done. “It is still young,” said Lovely. “Where we are now is where solar power was 20 or 30 years ago.” He also believes the battery will be used in scientific equipment at the bottom of the ocean. Other’s ideas include using sugar in the blood to run medical devices in the human body and taking sugar from animal waste to provide energy to power homes in the countryside. 12. What’s the passage mainly about? A. An effective way to repair the mobile phone. B. A scientific invention of a new type of battery. C. A clean energy to reduce the carbon dioxide. D. A new kind of mobile phone and its future. 13. Which of the following is NOT the advantage of the newly-developed battery? A. Convenient. B. Stable. C. Inexpensive. D. Quick. 14. Which of the following are the scientists working on to improve the new battery? A. Increase the bacteria. B. Solve the pollution problem. C. Bring down the price. D. Change the size of the battery. 15. What does the underlined sentence actually mean? A. The bacteria battery shares some similarities with solar energy. B. Scientists will continue their work until they find solar power. C. There is still much room for the improvement of the bacteria battery. D. The bacteria battery will be as popular as solar power in twenty or thirty years. 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。 You want to become a farmer, but you’ve never grown a crop before?

Hiram was the son of a fisherman, but the fisherman had died when Hiram was a little boy. Hiram’s mother took on sewing work to earn money to support herself and her son. He helped her when he could re out of school hours, and during vacation time. He had two uncles who had taught him how to catch shrimps. With the money he earned by selling them he could buy things for his own use or pleasure. He had a “bank” almost full of what he called his “shrimp money.” The sight of the flashing diamonds on the hands of some of the summer visitors at the fishing village in which he lived had added a new article to the list of beautiful things his mother would own someday. He had heard that just one single diamond was sometimes worth five hundred dollars or more. This had discouraged him very much. But one day, he happened to pass a shop in the neighboring town and saw a number of diamond rings displayed in the window. He stopped fascinated, and pressed his face against the glass eagerly to see if any prices were marked upon them. Imagine his surprise when he saw upon the largest one a tag marked $4.75. He looked again to see if he had made a mistake. Perhaps it was $475. But no, he knew enough about figures to see that he was right the first time. He went home as fast as he could, and ran up into his bedroom. Then, he opened his “bank” and counted its contents. “Three dollars and twenty-two cents!” he cried. “I’ll have that ring before another week.” Hiram worked early and late for the next few days. He caught more shrimps than he had ever caught in the same length of time, and sold them readily. 注意: 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 At the end of the week he had the sum he desired. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Years after, Hiram learned what he had bought was in fact only glass, and he decided to tell his mother. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 潮州市松昌中学2025--2026学年度第一学期阶段教学检测 高二级英语科试卷 本试卷共10页；满分150分，完成时间130分钟。 （其中，第一部分20分，第二、三、四部分120÷12×13=130分） 第一部分 听说考试（共两节；满分20分） 做题时先把答案写在试卷上，等听说考试结束后再把答案写在答题卡上。 第一节 角色扮演（共8小题；每小题1分，满分8分） 情景介绍： 角色：你是Tom。 任务：（1）与同学Mary谈论智能锁的话题； （2）根据谈话内容回答另一同学的提问。 生 词：smart lock 智能锁 temporary password 临时密码 下面请用英语提出三个问题。每个问题有20秒的准备时间。当你听见“滴”声时，开始提问。 Now please ask the speaker three questions.

D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了Muir Woods国家纪念公园的参观指南，包括公园位置、参观时间、预约方式、往返巴士票价、停车信息和入场费用等内容。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据When to come?部分中的“For the most solitude, we recommend visiting during weekdays, morning hours and late afternoons.(为了最清净，我们建议在工作日的上午或者下午晚些时候参观)”可知，“星期三的下午5点”是最佳参观时间，因为这个时间是工作日下午较晚时间。故选项C。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Shuttle(往返巴士)Fare部分中“It runs during the spring and summer and adult fare is $5 (free for youth ages 15 and under). (它在春季和夏季运行，成人票价为5美元(15岁及以下的青少年免费))”和Entry Fee部分中“Entry Fee is required — $3 per Adult (17 and older). Free for children aged 16 and under. (每位成人(17岁及以上)需交进场费$3。16岁及以下儿童免费)”可知，一对夫妇带着他们16岁的少年参加比赛的总车费和报名费是总费用为：往返巴士5×3+进场费3×2=21美元。故选B。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Shuttle(往返巴士)Fare部分中“It runs during the spring and summer and adult fare is $5 (free for youth ages 15 and under). (它在春季和夏季运行，成人票价为5美元(15岁及以下的青少年免费))”和Entry Fee部分中的“Free for children aged 16 and under. (16岁及以下儿童免费)”可知，公园对16岁及以下的青少年实行免费入场，所以“这个公园对15岁及以下的青少年来说是经济实惠的”是正确表述。故选项D。 B In the vast and diverse world of animals, there exists odd gestures that often leave us humans puzzled and amazed. These gestures, which may seem strange or unusual to us, are actually fascinating glimpses into the unique behaviors and communication styles of our pets. Animals want our attention, and sometimes they’re quite obvious about asking for it. Odd gesture are often our pets’ way of telling us to stop what we’re doing and play with them. It’s why Fido constantly follows his tail and why Kitty keeps rolling around. An extremely bored pet may choose “bad” behaviors to cause a reaction! Sure, your dog loves you, but that’s not why he’s licking (舔) your face. A little dog learns to lick his mother’s mouth to obtain a little food, so Spot isn’t kissing you in our sense of the word; he just wants a snack. Cat owners also misinterpret their pets’ kisses. While a cat might lick you to show love, sometimes she’ll do it to comfort herself. One way to tell if her licking is stress-related is whether it goes on for a long period of time. At some point you’ve probably told these words to someone who made you angry. Dogs think similarly, avoiding eye contact with anyone who injures their feelings. Another sign of anger: yawning (打哈欠). A yawning dog may not be tired but anxious, not bored but stressed. Similarly, lip-licking — when there isn’t food around to bring about it — is another sign of threat. You might think your dog is running around the backyard, having the time of his life while you’re away. But the reality is that he’s most likely just sitting in one spot for hours, waiting for you to return with anxiety. Dogs actually prefer to be inside, ideally with their owners. 4. If a dog intends to eat food, which action will it take? A. It stretches its legs, yawning. B. It makes an eye contact with its owner. C. It licks its owner’s face with a soft tongue. D. It runs around the backyard, following its tail. 5. What do we learn about the gesture if a cat constantly kisses itself? A It feels amused. B. It feels stressed. C. It feels angry. D. It feels tired. 6. When the dog sits for a long time without moving，it reveals ________. A. the dog is eagerly awaiting your return B. the dog displays a sign of tiredness C. the dog is extremely bored to play with you D. the dog displays a sign of embarrassment 7. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Pets: Lovely Animals B. Dogs: Odd gestures C. What Your Pet Is Trying to Tell You D. What Should We Do With Our Pets 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. A 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了宠物通过各种行为和姿势与人类进行沟通的方式，以及这些行为背后的含义。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Sure, your dog loves you, but that’s not why he’s licking your face. A little dog learns to lick his mother’s mouth to obtain a little food, so Spot isn’t kissing you in our sense of the word; he just wants a snack.(当然，你的狗爱你，但它舔你的脸并不是这个原因。小狗通过舔母亲的嘴来获得一点食物，所以Spot(狗名)并不是在按照我们的定义亲吻你；它只是想要零食)”可知，如果狗想吃东西，它会用柔软的舌头舔主人的脸。故选C。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Cat owners also misinterpret their pets’ kisses. While a cat might lick you to show love, sometimes she’ll do it to comfort herself. One way to tell if her licking is stress-related is whether it goes on for a long period of time.(猫主人也误解了他们宠物的亲吻。虽然猫可能会舔你来表达爱意，但有时候它这样做是为了让自己平静下来。一个判断她的舔舐是否与压力有关的方法是看这种行为是否会持续很长时间)”可知，如果猫长时间地舔自己，可能是因为它感到压力。故选B。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“But the reality is that he’s most likely just sitting in one spot for hours, waiting for you to return with anxiety.(但现实是，它很可能只是在一个地方坐上几个小时，焦虑地等待你回来)”可知，当狗长时间坐着不动时，它实际上是在急切地等待你回来。故选A。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是首段“In the vast and diverse world of animals, there exists odd gestures that often leave us humans puzzled and amazed. These gestures, which may seem strange or unusual to us, are actually fascinating glimpses into the unique behaviors and communication styles of our pets. (在浩瀚而多样的动物世界里，存在着一些奇怪的手势，常常让我们人类感到困惑和惊讶。这些对我们来说可能看起来很奇怪或不寻常的手势，实际上是对我们宠物独特行为和沟通方式的迷人一瞥。)”以及下文介绍的宠物与人类交流的方式可知，文章主要讲述了宠物通过各种行为和姿势与人类进行沟通的方式，以及这些行为背后的含义，故C项“你的宠物想告诉你什么”适合作为文章的标题。故选C项。 C Farmers often lose crops because they cannot spot diseases fast enough. When a virus (病毒) spreads, it can destroy many plants and hurt nearby farms too. In Tanzania, several viruses attack crops every year. Farmers used to wait six months or more for lab results, but now a small, hand-held tool is changing everything. The tool is made by a British company. It looks like a little box and is easy to carry to any field. First, a farmer cuts a tiny piece from a sick leaf. The tool then pulls out the plant’s DNA and reads it. Within two hours, it tells the farmer which virus is hurting the crop. This speed is very important, because the quicker the answer, the sooner the farmer can act. After testing, farmer Asha Mohamed learned exactly which viruses were on her land. She was given two kinds of new seeds that can control those viruses. She planted them right away. Nine months later, scientists came back and saw tall, healthy plants and a big harvest. The same tool was also used in Kenya on Naomi Mumo’s pawpaw trees. The quick test showed the exact disease, and Naomi could choose the right treatment. Because the tool is small and runs on batteries, farmers can use it anywhere. They do not need a big lab or a long waiting time. By finding viruses early and choosing resistant seeds, farmers protect their crops, their neighbors’ crops, and their income. 8. What was the main problem farmers faced in the past? A. A lack of modern farming techniques. B. A shortage of high-quality farming land. C. A slow process to find diseases in crops. D. An inability to afford necessary supplies. 9. How does the hand-held tool help farmers? A. By watering the crops when needed. B. By increasing the growth speed of the crops. C. By reading the plant’s DNA to find the virus. D. By predicting which diseases will spread next. 10. What happened to farmer Asha Mohamed after she used the tool? A. She got more land to plant her crops on. B. She received money to help pay for her farm. C. She was given special seeds that stop viruses. D. All her crops became completely disease-proof. 11. Where is the text most likely from? A. A diary. B. A guidebook. C. A fairy novel. D. A science magazine. 【答案】8. C 9. C 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍一款便携式作物病毒检测工具，解决农民过去病害检测慢的问题，助力作物保护与丰收。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Farmers often lose crops because they cannot spot diseases fast enough. ... Farmers used to wait six months or more for lab results(农民经常因为不能足够快地发现病害而损失作物。……过去，农民需要等待六个月甚至更长时间才能拿到实验室结果)”可知，农民过去面临的主要问题是作物病害检测过程缓慢。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The tool then pulls out the plant’s DNA and reads it. Within two hours, it tells the farmer which virus is hurting the crop.(然后该工具会提取植物的DNA并进行解读。在两小时内，它就能告诉农民是哪种病毒在危害作物。)”可知，这款手持工具通过读取植物DNA来识别病毒，帮助农民快速定位病害。故选C项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“After testing, farmer Asha Mohamed learned exactly which viruses were on her land. She was given two kinds of new seeds that can control those viruses.(测试后，农民阿莎·穆罕默德确切知道了她的土地上存在哪种病毒。她得到了两种能够抵御这些病毒的新种子。)”可知，阿莎使用工具后，获得了可防控相关病毒的特殊种子。故选C项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Farmers often lose crops because they cannot spot diseases fast enough. When a virus spreads, it can destroy many plants and hurt nearby farms too. In Tanzania, several viruses attack crops every year. Farmers used to wait six months or more for lab results, but now a small, hand-held tool is changing everything(农民们常常因为无法及时发现作物病害而遭受损失。当病毒传播时，它会摧毁大量作物，还会影响到周边的农场。在坦桑尼亚，每年都有多种病毒侵袭农作物。过去，农民们需要等待六个月甚至更久才能拿到实验室检测结果，但现在一款小型手持工具正在改变这一切)”可知，文章围绕一款新型农业科技工具展开，介绍其工作原理、使用效果和实际价值，内容涉及科学技术在农业中的应用。短文来自科学杂志。故选D项。 D Imagine that the battery on your mobile phone has run out. You can’t make any calls for help and no one can contact you. You are all alone, and well, not quite. Just reach into your pocket and take out a piece of sugar. Put it into the battery, wait a minute and you are back on the phone. Thanks to a couple of American scientists, this situation could become real. Swadesh Chaudhuri and Derek Lovely have invented the “bacteria (细菌) battery”. This kind of battery gets its power from bacteria that eat sugar and turn it into electricity. “This is a special organism (有机体) ,” Lovely said. “You can get enough electricity to power a cell phone battery for about four days from a spoonful of sugar.” In the past, bacteria batteries have been expensive and not long-lasting. But this battery uses a more efficient bacterium that can turn 80 percent of sugar into electrical energy. This is 30 percent more than similar batteries can manage. The bacteria battery could become as small as a household battery. It is also cheap and stable (稳定的) , because sugar can be taken from waste and crops. But the sugar-to-electricity process is not satisfactory as it could take weeks for the bacteria to change a cup of sugar into electricity. And it produces “greenhouse” gases which pollute the environment. The scientists understand there is a lot more work to be done. “It is still young,” said Lovely. “Where we are now is where solar power was 20 or 30 years ago.” He also believes the battery will be used in scientific equipment at the bottom of the ocean. Other’s ideas include using sugar in the blood to run medical devices in the human body and taking sugar from animal waste to provide energy to power homes in the countryside. 12. What’s the passage mainly about? A. An effective way to repair the mobile phone. B. A scientific invention of a new type of battery. C. A clean energy to reduce the carbon dioxide. D. A new kind of mobile phone and its future. 13. Which of the following is NOT the advantage of the newly-developed battery? A. Convenient. B. Stable. C. Inexpensive. D. Quick. 14. Which of the following are the scientists working on to improve the new battery? A. Increase the bacteria. B. Solve the pollution problem. C. Bring down the price. D. Change the size of the battery. 15. What does the underlined sentence actually mean? A. The bacteria battery shares some similarities with solar energy. B. Scientists will continue their work until they find solar power. C. There is still much room for the improvement of the bacteria battery. D. The bacteria battery will be as popular as solar power in twenty or thirty years. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。介绍了美国科学家发明的“细菌电池”，包括其工作原理、优势、现存不足及未来应用前景。 【12题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Swadesh Chaudhuri and Derek Lovely have invented the “bacteria (细菌) battery”. This kind of battery gets its power from bacteria that eat sugar and turn it into electricity. (Swadesh Chaudhuri和Derek Lovely发明了“细菌电池”。这种电池从细菌中获取能量，细菌吃掉糖并将其转化为电能)”可知，文章核心是介绍这种新型电池的科学发明。故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“The bacteria battery could become as small as a household battery. It is also cheap and stable (稳定的) , because sugar can be taken from waste and crops. (这种细菌电池可以变得和家用电池一样小。它还便宜且稳定，因为糖可以从废物和作物中提取)”可知，它具备便利、稳定、便宜的优势。根据第六段“But the sugar-to-electricity process is not satisfactory as it could take weeks for the bacteria to change a cup of sugar into electricity. (但是糖转化为电的过程并不令人满意，因为细菌将一杯糖转化为电可能需要数周的时间)”可知，它并不是快速的。故选D项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段“And it produces “greenhouse” gases which pollute the environment. (它还会产生污染环境的“温室”气体)”及第七段“The scientists understand there is a lot more work to be done. (科学家们明白还有很多工作要做)”可知，科学家需要解决污染问题来改进电池。故选B项。 【15题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第七段和第八段“The scientists understand there is a lot more work to be done. “It is still young,” said Lovely. “Where we are now is where solar power was 20 or 30 years ago.” (科学家们明白还有很多工作要做，“它还很年轻，”Lovely说。“我们现在所处的位置是二三十年前太阳能的位置。”)”可知，划线句将细菌电池比作20-30年前的太阳能，意在说明它还有很大的改进空间，就像早期太阳能一样需要不断完善。故选C项。 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。 You want to become a farmer, but you’ve never grown a crop before?

Hiram was the son of a fisherman, but the fisherman had died when Hiram was a little boy. Hiram’s mother took on sewing work to earn money to support herself and her son. He helped her when he could re out of school hours, and during vacation time. He had two uncles who had taught him how to catch shrimps. With the money he earned by selling them he could buy things for his own use or pleasure. He had a “bank” almost full of what he called his “shrimp money.” The sight of the flashing diamonds on the hands of some of the summer visitors at the fishing village in which he lived had added a new article to the list of beautiful things his mother would own someday. He had heard that just one single diamond was sometimes worth five hundred dollars or more. This had discouraged him very much. But one day, he happened to pass a shop in the neighboring town and saw a number of diamond rings displayed in the window. He stopped fascinated, and pressed his face against the glass eagerly to see if any prices were marked upon them. Imagine his surprise when he saw upon the largest one a tag marked $4.75. He looked again to see if he had made a mistake. Perhaps it was $475. But no, he knew enough about figures to see that he was right the first time. He went home as fast as he could, and ran up into his bedroom. Then, he opened his “bank” and counted its contents. “Three dollars and twenty-two cents!” he cried. “I’ll have that ring before another week.” Hiram worked early and late for the next few days. He caught more shrimps than he had ever caught in the same length of time, and sold them readily. 注意: 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 At the end of the week he had the sum he desired. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Years after, Hiram learned what he had bought was in fact only glass, and he decided to tell his mother. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 At the end of the week he had the sum he desired. Hurrying to the shop where he had seen the ring, before going inside he gave one swift, almost frightened look into the window. Could it be gone? No, there it was flashing and shining as before. That evening, he placed it on his mother’s finger. She looked at it in surprise. “It is yours, Mother,” he cried, proudly. “I bought it with my shrimp money.” “My dear boy,” said his mother, while something as bright as the shining stone flashed in her eyes, “not one of those ladies can value their rings as I shall value mine.” Years afterwards Hiram learned that what he had thought was a diamond was only a bit of glass. “Did you know it then, Mother?” he asked. His mother nodded. “And you never told me.” “It was brighter to me than any real diamond,” she said. “The brightness I saw flashing in it was the unselfish love of my boy.” Indeed, nothing in the world is more precious than a sincere heart. 【解析】 【导语】本文以时间为线索展开，讲述了小男孩Hiram Green想要给母亲买一个钻石戒指，但是这太贵了。有一天他突然发现在一家店里的一个钻石戒指只要4.75美元。他很激动，在一周后攒够了钱，买下了戒指送给母亲。母亲很珍惜。多年以后他才知道那只是一个玻璃，但母亲说这世上没有比这更珍贵的了。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①.由第一段首句内容“到周末，他得到了他想要的那笔钱。”可知，第一段可描写Hiram Green去买下了那个戒指送给了母亲。 ②.由第二段首句内容“多年以后，Hiram才知道他原来以为是钻石的东西其实只是一小块玻璃。”可知，第二段可描写Hiram询问母亲是否知道，母亲说虽然是玻璃，但这世上没有比这更珍贵的了。 2.续写线索：买戒指——送戒指——惊喜——真相——珍惜 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①放置：place/put ②闪耀：flash/twinkle ③珍惜：value/cherish 情绪类 ①惊喜：surprise/amazement ②真诚的：sincere/frank 【点睛】[高分句型1] Hurrying to the shop where he had seen the ring, before going inside he gave one swift, almost frightened look into the window.
