It is often only visited for day trips because it is close to Ngorongoro and the Serengeti. It is full of elephants, zebras and lions. It also has some superb scenery to go with it. You can also see sights such as the Tarangire River. Tarangire has the second highest concentration of wildlife in Tanzania after the Serengeti and the highest concentration of elephants in the world. It has over 700 lions living there as well as a wide selection of other animals. Schedule You will be picked up from your accommodation. After an approximate 3 hours’ drive, you will arrive at Tarangire National Park. The name of this national park originates from the Tarangire River that crosses the park. The park is considered as one of the best places to view elephants up close. From the open roof of the safari (野外观兽旅行) vehicle you will be able to absorb the landscape and see the animals wandering around.

Julia Green knows this well. Just as she graduated from college, a financial crisis swept the country, making it hard to get a job in journalism. Despite her growing worries, she didn’t give up on her dream; instead, she tried a global volunteer program for her self-growth. A year later, Green began taking random writing jobs to make ends meet, while dreaming of a day when she could write freely and be paid for it. Afterwards, she applied for the fully funded Master of Fine Arts program, and was accepted to study fiction writing at the University of Michigan. Though the program didn’t end up opening many doors for her, she was paid to write and take classes. Green has never shied away from challenging topics. Marriage, healthcare, employment and more have featured noticeably in her writing, and she is especially impressive when it comes to music criticism. “I’ve intentionally tried to keep my lane (道路) very wide,” she said. “It was what I had to do in the beginning. I wanted to become a well-rounded writer.” She penned articles for a variety of websites. Slowly, she began to build a reputation for fearlessness. “I’ve been writing since I was 22. This craft requires that you have a tough skin.” said Green, when asked about her writing journey. “As a writer, you are not well served by caring what other people think about you. You have to be emotionally prepared to face rejection.” In the past decade, Green, lacking many examples to model after, has achieved remarkable success through great effort. She landed regular writing positions, had worked in respected journals, made the Forbes 30 Under 30 list, and wrote a world-class bestseller. By any young journalist’s definition, Green had arrived. 4. What do we know about Green from the first two paragraphs? A. A financial crisis ruined her dream. B. Further education made her optimistic. C. Volunteering brought her new jobs. D. Her passion for writing did not change. 5. Why did Green pursue a diverse path? A. To show off her creativity. B. To please critical readers. C. To develop her adaptability. D. To build her a reputation. 6. What matters most to her career according to Green? A. Handling criticism bravely. B. Maintaining youthful skin. C. Gaining public recognition. D. Writing about her journey. 7. Which words can best describe Green? A. Independent and considerate. B. Generous and creative. C. Hard-working and determined. D. Ambitious and modest. C “Woman reading book, under a night sky, dreamy atmosphere,” I type into Deep Dream Generator’s Text 2 Dream feature. In less than a minute, an image is returned to me showing what I’ve described. Welcome to the world of AI image generation, where you can create what on the surface looks like top-rank artwork using just a few text prompts (提示). But closer examination shows oddities. The face of the woman in my image has very odd features, and appears to be holding multiple books. And, while there’s an initial thrill at seeing an image appear, there’s no creative satisfaction. AI image generation could influence everything from film to graphic novels and more. Children’s illustrators were quick to raise concerns about the technology. They say AI-generated art is the exact opposite of what art is believed to be. Fundamentally, art is all about translating something that you feel internally into something that exists externally. Whatever form it takes, true art is about the creative process much more than it’s about the final piece. And simply pressing a button to generate an image is not a creative process. Beyond creativity, there are deeper issues. To create images from prompts, AI generators rely on databases of already existing art and text. This could lead to the creation of images that are intentionally meant to imitate (模仿) the style of other artists, without their agreement. There is an argument that AI generators work no differently to humans when it comes to being influenced by others’ work. However, a human artist is also adding emotion and slight difference into the mix. AI doesn’t do the same—it can only copy. The increasing use of AI will also lead to a devaluing of the work of artists. There’s already a negative prejudice towards the creative industry. People will begin to think that their “work” is as excellent as that created by someone who has spent a career making art. It’s nonsense, of course. You can use your mobile phone to take a nice picture of your daughter, but you are no match for professionals. 8. What does the writer think of his image creation? A. Exciting. B. Concerned. C. Unsatisfying. D. Shocking. 9. What do children’s illustrators value most about art? A. The final art work. B. External expressions in art. C. The opposite of reality. D. The journey to creation. 10. What is paragraph 4 of the text mainly about? A. The ethical concerns in AI art imitation. B. Human artists’ influence on AI generators. C. The superiority of human artworks. D. The over-reliance of human on technology. 11. Which of the following best summarizes the last paragraph? A. Art is the mirror of life. B. Rome is not built in a day. C. No man can do two things at once. D. Don’t judge a book by its cover. D Preventing the illegal hunting of any creature is hard, especially when relatively small numbers of park staff are often responsible for patrolling (巡逻) large areas. So researchers at the Institute of Subtropical Biology (ISB) and park-staff in Iguazú National Park of Argentina have been exploring new means of predicting where poachers (偷猎者) might strike — and they are turning to new kinds of mapping technology for help. In recent years, the staff of the Park have used satellite phones, along with the Spatial Monitoring and Reporting Tool (SMART) for position analysis. But SMART technology is only as helpful as the data available to inform it. “The whole operational situation improved a lot, but the reality is that we are still faced with a high number of hunters,” says Bellonì, a staff of the Park. Environmentalists in Iguazú are thus constantly on the lookout for new ways to map and predict poaching hot spots. One additional mapping tool could be based on audio (音频). For seven months from August 2018, researchers from ISB used audio monitoring methods to map poaching hot spots inside the Park. The study covered an extremely large 4,637 sq km area and, by situating the automatic recorders high on trees out of sight of poachers, the research team were able to record gunshot sounds up to 2km away from each location. After seven months, they had recorded gunshots at 43 sites out of 90, with a range of 1 to 68 shots per site. The researchers then used this information to produce a predictive map of poaching activity. They also validated their model with field trips to look for physical evidence, such as bullet shells and cut plants, and showed that the predictive map was 82% reliable (可靠的), says Julia Martinez Pardo, the lead author of the study. The practical application of this system could, in future, further help the efficiency of patrolling. By cross-referencing the audio monitoring data with the existing patrol routes, the park staff could establish whether their current tours match with the places with greatest gunshot activity. If the maps don’t match, then the patrols could be changed. 12. What is the researchers’ purpose of working with park-staff in Iguazú National Park? A. To forecast poachers’ movements. B. To study creatures in the forest. C. To create new SMART technology. D. To find evidence of illegal activities. 13. What can be inferred from paragraph 2? A. SMART technology is ineffective without available data. B. SMART technology has been completely given up. C Audio monitoring methods have been widely used. D. Loud sounds can drive away the hunters. 14. What does the underlined word “validated” mean in paragraph 4? A. Defined. B. Proved. C. Maintained. D. Suited. 15 How will the new system help the park’s patrolling staff? A. By upgrading their working equipment. B. By telling them when to start their patrols. C. By providing them with different patrol routes. D. By showing them whether to change patrol routes. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分) How many times have you shrunk yourself because you fear being judged? There is a term in social psychology called the ‘spotlight effect’. ______16______ The reality is that everyone is so concerned about their own life that they rarely spend much time thinking about ours.

One warm spring day, a little dog followed them home after school. It had short legs and long lovely ears, with a brown-colored coat. It was the cutest dog I had ever seen and the girls begged me to keep it. The dog was barely twelve weeks old. It had no identification marks. I didn’t know what to do. I thought about running an advertisement but I really didn’t want to. It would break the kids’ hearts if someone should show up. Besides, its owners should have watched it more closely. By the end of the week the dog was part of our family. It was very good with the girls. The following week something told me to check the lost-and-found part in the local newspaper. One particular advertisement jumped out at me and my heart beat with fear for what I read. Someone was begging for the return of a lost dog in the neighborhood. They sounded anxious. My hands shook. Instead, I pretended I hadn’t seen the advertisement. I quickly put paper away in the drawer. I never said a word about it to the kids or my husband. By now we had named the dog Molly. It followed the girls everywhere they went. But there was one problem bothering me: my conscience (良心). I knew in my heart I had to call that number in the paper and see if our Molly was the dog they were eagerly looking for. It was the most difficult thing I’ve ever done. 注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式作答。 With mixed feelings, I finally picked up the phone. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I asked the woman to come in and she quickly hugged Molly tightly. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $ 厦门二中2025-2026学年第一学期高二年段期中考英语学科试卷 第一部分 听力(共两节,满分30分) 第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分,满分7.5分) 1.

Despite her growing worries, she didn’t give up on her dream; instead, she tried a global volunteer program for her self-growth.(就在她大学毕业的时候,一场金融危机席卷了这个国家,使得她很难在新闻行业找到一份工作。尽管她的担忧与日俱增,但她并没有放弃自己的梦想;相反,她参加了一个全球性的志愿者项目来实现自我成长)”以及第二段“A year later, Green began taking random writing jobs to make ends meet, while dreaming of a day when she could write freely and be paid for it.(一年后,格林开始从事一些零散的写作工作来维持生计,与此同时,她梦想着有一天能够自由地写作并以此获得报酬)”可知,尽管面临金融危机找工作困难,以及做随机写作工作来维持生计,但格林对写作的梦想和热情从未改变。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段““I’ve intentionally tried to keep my lane (道路) very wide,” she said. “It was what I had to do in the beginning. I wanted to become a well-rounded writer.”(“我有意地努力让自己的发展道路尽可能宽广,” 她说,“这是我一开始就必须要做的事情。我想成为一名全面的作家。”)” 可推知,格林追求多样化的写作道路是为了让自己成为一个全面的作家,也就是培养自己的适应能力,能够应对不同类型的写作任务。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段““I’ve been writing since I was 22. This craft requires that you have a tough skin.” said Green, when asked about her writing journey. “As a writer, you are not well served by caring what other people think about you. You have to be emotionally prepared to face rejection.”(当被问及自己的写作历程时,格林说:“我从22岁起就一直在写作。从事写作这一行需要你有厚脸皮。作为一名作家,太在意别人对你的看法对你没有好处。你必须在情感上做好面对被拒绝的准备。”)”可知,对于她的写作事业来说,最重要的是要勇敢地面对批评和拒绝,要有厚脸皮,不要在意别人的看法。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是第一段“The path to success isn’t always clear-cut. Julia Green knows this well. Just as she graduated from college, a financial crisis swept the country, making it hard to get a job in journalism. Despite her growing worries, she didn’t give up on her dream; instead, she tried a global volunteer program for her self-growth.(成功之路并非总是清晰明确的。朱莉娅・格林对此深有体会。就在她大学毕业之时,一场金融危机席卷了整个国家,这使得她很难在新闻行业找到一份工作。尽管她的担忧日益加剧,但她并没有放弃自己的梦想;相反,她参加了一个全球性的志愿者项目来实现自我成长)”可知,格林在就业困难时没放弃梦想,通过不断努力,找写作相关工作,申请深造,尝试不同写作题材,最终取得成功,说明她努力且坚定。故选C。 C “Woman reading book, under a night sky, dreamy atmosphere,” I type into Deep Dream Generator’s Text 2 Dream feature. In less than a minute, an image is returned to me showing what I’ve described. Welcome to the world of AI image generation, where you can create what on the surface looks like top-rank artwork using just a few text prompts (提示). But closer examination shows oddities. The face of the woman in my image has very odd features, and appears to be holding multiple books. And, while there’s an initial thrill at seeing an image appear, there’s no creative satisfaction. AI image generation could influence everything from film to graphic novels and more. Children’s illustrators were quick to raise concerns about the technology. They say AI-generated art is the exact opposite of what art is believed to be. Fundamentally, art is all about translating something that you feel internally into something that exists externally. Whatever form it takes, true art is about the creative process much more than it’s about the final piece. And simply pressing a button to generate an image is not a creative process. Beyond creativity, there are deeper issues. To create images from prompts, AI generators rely on databases of already existing art and text. This could lead to the creation of images that are intentionally meant to imitate (模仿) the style of other artists, without their agreement. There is an argument that AI generators work no differently to humans when it comes to being influenced by others’ work. However, a human artist is also adding emotion and slight difference into the mix. AI doesn’t do the same—it can only copy. The increasing use of AI will also lead to a devaluing of the work of artists. There’s already a negative prejudice towards the creative industry. People will begin to think that their “work” is as excellent as that created by someone who has spent a career making art. It’s nonsense, of course. You can use your mobile phone to take a nice picture of your daughter, but you are no match for professionals. 8. What does the writer think of his image creation? A. Exciting. B. Concerned. C. Unsatisfying. D. Shocking. 9. What do children’s illustrators value most about art? A. The final art work. B. External expressions in art. C. The opposite of reality. D. The journey to creation. 10. What is paragraph 4 of the text mainly about? A. The ethical concerns in AI art imitation. B. Human artists’ influence on AI generators. C. The superiority of human artworks. D. The over-reliance of human on technology. 11. Which of the following best summarizes the last paragraph? A. Art is the mirror of life. B. Rome is not built in a day. C. No man can do two things at once. D. Don’t judge a book by its cover. 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章探讨了人工智能图像生成技术的现状和潜在问题,这种技术生成的图像存在不自然之处且缺乏创造性,违背了儿童插画家对艺术核心的理解,缺少最重要的创作过程,而且会引发一些伦理担忧,同时导致对专业艺术家作品的贬低。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“But closer examination shows oddities. The face of the woman in my image has very odd features, and appears to be holding multiple books. And, while there’s an initial thrill at seeing an image appear, there’s no creative satisfaction. (但仔细观察就会发现一些奇怪之处。在我的图像中,这个女人的脸有着非常奇怪的特征,似乎拿着多本书。而且,虽然看到图像出现时会有一种最初的兴奋感,但却没有创造性的满足感)”可知,作者认为这张创作出的图像很奇怪,无法令人满意。故选C项。 9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Fundamentally, art is all about translating something that you feel internally into something that exists externally. Whatever form it takes, true art is about the creative process much more than it’s about the final piece. (从根本上说,艺术就是把你内心的感受转化成外在的东西。无论采用何种形式,真正的艺术都是关于创造过程而不是最终作品)”可知,儿童插画家最看重的是艺术的创作过程。故选D项。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“Beyond creativity, there are deeper issues. To create images from prompts, AI generators rely on databases of already existing art and text. This could lead to the creation of images that are intentionally meant to imitate (模仿) the style of other artists, without their agreement. There is an argument that AI generators work no differently to humans when it comes to being influenced by others’ work. However, a human artist is also adding emotion and slight difference into the mix. AI doesn’t do the same—it can only copy. (除了创造力,还有更深层次的问题。为了根据提示创建图像,人工智能生成器依赖于已经存在的艺术和文本数据库。这可能会导致在未经其他艺术家同意的情况下,故意模仿其他艺术家的风格。有一种观点认为,人工智能生成器在受他人工作影响方面与人类没有什么不同。然而,人类艺术家也会在混合中添加情感和细微的差异。人工智能不会这样做——它只能复制)”可知,本段主要有关人工智能生成图像可能涉及的伦理问题,这种生成可能会未经艺术家同意模仿其风格,且无法像人类艺术家那样融入情感和细微差异。故选A项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The increasing use of AI will also lead to a devaluing of the work of artists. There’s already a negative prejudice towards the creative industry. People will begin to think that their “work” is as excellent as that created by someone who has spent a career making art. It’s nonsense, of course. You can use your mobile phone to take a nice picture of your daughter, but you are no match for professionals. (越来越多地使用人工智能也将导致艺术家的作品贬值。人们已经对创意产业产生了负面偏见。人们会开始认为他们的“作品”和那些从事艺术创作的人一样优秀。当然,这是无稽之谈。你可以用你的手机给你的女儿拍一张漂亮的照片,但你比不上专业人士)”可知,更多地使用人工智能导致人们进一步贬低艺术创作的价值,但作者认为实际上人工智能生成的作品是无法与艺术创作者的作品相比的,这暗示了艺术创作需要经过长期的训练。因此,B项“罗马不是一天建成的”指做事不能急于求成,只有付出努力并持之以恒,才能取得成功,最能总结本段表达的意思。A. 艺术是生活的镜子;C. 一心不可二用;D. 不要以貌取人。故选B项。 D Preventing the illegal hunting of any creature is hard, especially when relatively small numbers of park staff are often responsible for patrolling (巡逻) large areas. So researchers at the Institute of Subtropical Biology (ISB) and park-staff in Iguazú National Park of Argentina have been exploring new means of predicting where poachers (偷猎者) might strike — and they are turning to new kinds of mapping technology for help. In recent years, the staff of the Park have used satellite phones, along with the Spatial Monitoring and Reporting Tool (SMART) for position analysis. But SMART technology is only as helpful as the data available to inform it. “The whole operational situation improved a lot, but the reality is that we are still faced with a high number of hunters,” says Bellonì, a staff of the Park. Environmentalists in Iguazú are thus constantly on the lookout for new ways to map and predict poaching hot spots. One additional mapping tool could be based on audio (音频). For seven months from August 2018, researchers from ISB used audio monitoring methods to map poaching hot spots inside the Park. The study covered an extremely large 4,637 sq km area and, by situating the automatic recorders high on trees out of sight of poachers, the research team were able to record gunshot sounds up to 2km away from each location. After seven months, they had recorded gunshots at 43 sites out of 90, with a range of 1 to 68 shots per site. The researchers then used this information to produce a predictive map of poaching activity. They also validated their model with field trips to look for physical evidence, such as bullet shells and cut plants, and showed that the predictive map was 82% reliable (可靠的), says Julia Martinez Pardo, the lead author of the study. The practical application of this system could, in future, further help the efficiency of patrolling. By cross-referencing the audio monitoring data with the existing patrol routes, the park staff could establish whether their current tours match with the places with greatest gunshot activity. If the maps don’t match, then the patrols could be changed. 12. What is the researchers’ purpose of working with park-staff in Iguazú National Park? A. To forecast poachers’ movements. B. To study creatures in the forest. C. To create new SMART technology. D. To find evidence of illegal activities. 13. What can be inferred from paragraph 2? A. SMART technology is ineffective without available data. B. SMART technology has been completely given up. C. Audio monitoring methods have been widely used. D. Loud sounds can drive away the hunters. 14. What does the underlined word “validated” mean in paragraph 4? A. Defined. B. Proved. C. Maintained. D. Suited. 15. How will the new system help the park’s patrolling staff? A. By upgrading their working equipment. B. By telling them when to start their patrols. C. By providing them with different patrol routes. D. By showing them whether to change patrol routes. 【答案】12. A 13. A 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是阿根廷伊瓜苏国家公园为预防非法捕猎行为所做的探索与努力,重点介绍了利用新型测绘技术(尤其是基于音频的监测方法)来预测偷猎者活动地点,以提高巡逻效率。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“So researchers at the Institute of Subtropical Biology (ISB) and park-staff in Iguazú National Park of Argentina have been exploring new means of predicting where poachers (偷猎者) might strike— and they are turning to new kinds of mapping technology for help.(因此,阿根廷Iguazú国家公园的亚热带生物研究所(ISB)的研究人员和公园工作人员一直在探索预测偷猎者可能袭击的新方法,他们正在求助于新型的测绘技术。)”可知,研究人员与Iguazú国家公园的工作人员合作的目的是预测偷猎者的动向。选A。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“But SMART technology is only as helpful as the data available to inform it.(但SMART技术只有在数据可用的情况下才能发挥作用。)”可知,从第二段可以推断出没有可用的数据,SMART技术是无效的。故选A。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段“look for physical evidence, such as bullet shells and cut plants, and showed that the predictive map was 82% reliable(寻找实物证据,如子弹壳和被砍伐的植物,并表明预测地图的可靠性为82%)”可知,划线词所在句子表示“他们还通过实地考察寻找实物证据,如子弹壳和被砍伐的植物,来验证他们的模型”,划线词validated的意思是“验证,证明”,和proved意思相近。故选B。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“By cross-referencing the audio monitoring data with the existing patrol routes, the park staff could establish whether their current tours match with the places with greatest gunshot activity. If the maps don’t match, then the patrols could be changed.(通过将音频监测数据与现有的巡逻路线进行交叉比对,公园工作人员可以确定他们当前的巡逻路线是否与枪声活动最频繁的区域相匹配。如果地图不匹配,那么就可以调整巡逻路线。)”可知,新系统通过告诉他们是否要改变巡逻路线来帮助公园的巡逻人员。故选D。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分) How many times have you shrunk yourself because you fear being judged?

However, in some Middle Eastern countries, it is impolite. 【答案】36. varies 37. appropriately 38. making 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讨论了肢体语言在人际交往中的重要性,以及肢体语言因文化差异而存在的不同。 【36题详解】 考查动词时态。句意:就像口语一样,肢体语言也因文化而异。空处作谓语,陈述客观事实,使用一般现在时,且主语body language为单数名词词组,所以谓语动词用第三人称单数形式varies。故填varies。 【37题详解】 考查副词。句意:当使用得当时,肢体语言是建立人与人之间信任的有力工具。修饰动词use需用副词appropriately,作状语,表示“适当地”。故填appropriately。 【38题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意:例如,在中国,与人交谈时保持眼神交流是一种表示尊重的方式。空处作主语,需用动名词形式。故填making。 B 阅读下列短文,根据短文内容填空,在未给提示词的空白处仅填写1个恰当的单词,在给出提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。 Tributes (悼念) have poured onto Chinese social media following the death of British conservationist Jane Goodall, aged 91, ___39___ story featured in school textbooks and who visited China 17 times.

With the invention of refrigerators and air-conditioning, this candied treat has developed into an all-season snack. 【答案】42. her 43. has been sold 44. beginning 45. to avoid 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文,文章介绍了中国传统小吃“糖葫芦”的起源传说、命名由来以及从冬季限定到四季皆可食用的演变过程。 【42题详解】 考查代词。句意:另一个故事说,那位医生的妻子因为食欲不振而发明了它。空白处后为名词短语poor appetite,需用形容词性物主代词作定语,故填her。 【43题详解】 考查动词时态和语态。句意:无论真相如何,这种蜜饯水果很快便流行起来,自那以后大多在戏院、街头和茶馆出售。根据时间状语since then可判断出本句表示的是过去发生的动作对现在的影响,谓语动词常用现在完成时;主语the candied fruit与谓语sell之间为被动关系,需用现在完成时的被动语态,主语the candied fruit为单数,故填has been sold。 【44题详解】 考查固定短语。句意:最初,中国人把这种小吃命名为“冰糖葫芦”。in the beginning为固定短语,意为“最初、一开始”,故填beginning。 【45题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意:它之所以得名,是因为这种甜点只在冬天食用,以避免在阳光下融化时弄得一团糟。空白处表目的,需用动词不定式作目的状语,故填to avoid。 第四部分 书面表达(共三节,满分40分) 第一节 课内句子翻译(共5小空;每小题1分,满分5分) 46. Close by, there are a few reindeer ________ on grass. 旁边有几只驯鹿正在吃草。 【答案】feeding 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。根据句意,此处表示“正在吃草”,reindeer与feed(吃草)为主动关系,且动作正在进行,因此用现在分词feeding作后置定语,修饰reindeer。故填feeding。 47. Whichever and whatever you like, there is an incredible theme park that will ________ to you! 无论你喜欢哪一个,无论你喜欢什么,总有一个奇妙无比的主题公园会让你流连忘返! 【答案】appeal 【解析】 【详解】考查动词短语。分析句子,设空处使用动词作谓语,与空前的will构成一般将来时。表示“吸引,流连忘返”用appeal to。故填appeal。 48. In other countries, by contrast, eye contact is not always ________ of. 相反,在另一些国家,眼神交流并不总是被认可。 【答案】approved 【解析】 【详解】考查动词短语。根据英汉意思对比可知,空处应填“被认可”,应用动词短语approve of “认可,赞成”,句子主语eye contact和动词approve之间是被动关系,应用被动语态,空前已有be动词is,所以空处应用过去分词形式approved,构成一般现在时的被动语态。故填approved。 49. While it is easy to perceive when students are interested, bored or ________, it is sometimes much harder to ________ when students are troubled. 尽管学生们何时(对讲课)感兴趣、何时感到无聊或精力不集中是容易察觉的,但要发现学生何时有困扰有时会难得多。 【答案】 ①. distracted ②. distinguish 【解析】 【详解】考查形容词及动词。 第一个空,根据英汉意思对比可知,此处要表达“精力不集中”,应用形容词distracted,表示“注意力分散的,心烦意乱的”,与前面的interested,bored并列作表语,描述学生的状态。 第二个空要表达“发现”,应用动词distinguish,表示“区分,辨别”,it is+adj+to do sth为固定句型,意为“做某事是……的”,it作形式主语,动词不定式为真正的主语,不定式符号to后应用动词原形。 故填①distracted,②distinguish。 第二节 应用文写作(满分15分) 50. 假定你是李华,你校计划举办一次英语周活动,外教Mr. Smith提出了两个方案:“English Song Competition”和“English Word Spelling Contest”,请你给他写一封邮件,内容包括: 1. 你的选择;2. 说明理由。 注意:1. 写作词数应为80个左右;2. 请按如下格式作答。 Dear Mr. Smith, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Mr. Smith, Thank you for proposing the two wonderful ideas for English Week.

One warm spring day, a little dog followed them home after school. It had short legs and long lovely ears, with a brown-colored coat. It was the cutest dog I had ever seen and the girls begged me to keep it. The dog was barely twelve weeks old. It had no identification marks. I didn’t know what to do. I thought about running an advertisement but I really didn’t want to. It would break the kids’ hearts if someone should show up. Besides, its owners should have watched it more closely. By the end of the week the dog was part of our family. It was very good with the girls. The following week something told me to check the lost-and-found part in the local newspaper. One particular advertisement jumped out at me and my heart beat with fear for what I read. Someone was begging for the return of a lost dog in the neighborhood. They sounded anxious. My hands shook. Instead, I pretended I hadn’t seen the advertisement. I quickly put paper away in the drawer. I never said a word about it to the kids or my husband. By now we had named the dog Molly. It followed the girls everywhere they went. But there was one problem bothering me: my conscience (良心). I knew in my heart I had to call that number in the paper and see if our Molly was the dog they were eagerly looking for. It was the most difficult thing I’ve ever done. 注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式作答。 With mixed feelings, I finally picked up the phone. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I asked the woman to come in and she quickly hugged Molly tightly. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 With mixed feelings, I finally picked up the phone. I dialed the telephone number in that advertisement and it was a woman. I asked her if she was seeking a little dog that had short legs and lovely long ears, with a brown-colored coat. On hearing my description, she said excitedly that the dog was just her lost one. Therefore, I asked her to come here to have a look. The next early morning, someone knocked on the door and I answered it. I asked the woman to come in and she quickly hugged Molly tightly. Surprised and excited, she told me with Molly in her arms that she couldn’t sleep well without it and thanked us for keeping her lovely dog so well for these days. At the same time, I told the stories between my daughters and Molly and she offered an invitation to all of us to go to her room for playing with Molly. After that Molly became a bond between our two families to spread happiness. 【解析】 【分析】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了作者收养了一只跟随女儿放学回家的小狗,但是偶然发现了寻狗启示,在经过一段心理斗争后,最终将小狗归还原主的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写: ①由第一段首句内容“怀着复杂的心情,我终于拿起了电话。”可知,第一段可描写作者和寻狗启示发出者确定这条狗确实是她正在寻找的狗,并邀请她到家里来。 ②由第二段首句内容“我请那个女人进来,她很快地紧紧地拥抱了莫利。”可知,第二段可描写狗的主人来到作者家,作者讲述家人与小狗之间的故事,最后,作者一家和狗的主人因为这条狗而成为好朋友。 2.续写线索:描述细节——确认——邀请——讲述各自的故事——邀请——狗狗成为两个家庭传播幸福的纽带 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①寻找:seek/search/ look for ②邀请:ask/ invite sb. to do sth. ③饲养:keep/raise/feed 情绪类 ①感谢:thank/show one’s appreciation/show one’s gratitude/be grateful ②惊讶:surprised /amazed 【点睛】 [高分句型1] On hearing my description, she said excitedly that the dog was just her lost one.(使用动名词作宾语,使用that引导的宾语从句) [高分句型2] Surprised and excited, she told me with Molly in her arms that she couldn’t sleep well without it and thanked us for keeping her lovely dog so well for these days.
