Jennifer Mauer has needed more willpower than college students to pursue her goal of earning a nursing degree. That willpower bore fruit when Jennifer graduated from University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire and became the first in her large family to earn a bachelor’s degree.
Jennifer, of Edgar, Wisconsin, grew up on a farm of 10 children. Her dad worked at a job away from the farm and her mother ran the farm with the kids. After high school, Jennifer attended a local technical college, working to pay her tuition (学费) , because there was no extra money set aside for a college education. After graduation, she worked to help her sisters and brothers pay for their schooling.
Jennifer now is married and has three children of her own. She decided to go back to college to advance her career and to be able to better support her family while doing something she loves: nursing. She chose the UW-Eau Claire program at Ministry Saint Joseph’s Hospital in Marshfield because she was able to pursue her four-year degree close to home. She could drive to class and be home in the evening to help with her kids. Jennifer received great support from her family as she worked to earn her degree: her husband worked two jobs to cover the bills, and her 68-year-old mother helped take care of the children at times.
Through it all, she remained in good academic standing and graduated with honors. Jennifer sacrificed to achieve her goal, giving up many nights with her kids and missing important events to study. “Some nights my heart was breaking to have to pick between my kids and studying for exams or papers,” she says. However, her children have learned an important lesson witnessing their mother earn her degree. Jennifer is a first-generation graduate and an inspiration to her family- and that’s pretty powerful.
24. What did Jennifer do after high school?
A. She helped her dad with his work. B. She supported herself through college.
C. She taught her sisters and brothers at home. D. She ran the family farm on her own.
25. Why did Jennifer choose the program at Ministry Saint Joseph’s Hospital in Marshfield?
A. To learn from the best nurses. B. To find a well- paid job there.
C. To save money for her parents. D. To take care of her kids easily.
26. What did Jennifer sacrifice to achieve her goal?
A. Her health. B. Her time with family.
C. Her reputation. D. Her chance of promotion.
27. What can we learn from Jennifer’s story?
A. Time is money. B. Education is the key to success.
C. Hard work pays off. D. Love breaks down misunderstandings.
C
Many people believe that working to the maximum is the secret to success, but research has found that moderation (适度) also gets results on the job.
In a study led by Ellen Langer of Harvard University, researchers asked people to translate sentences into a new made-up language. Subjects who practiced the language moderately beforehand made fewer errors than those who practiced extensively or not at all. High levels of knowledge can make people too attached to traditional ways of viewing problems across fields — the arts, sciences, and politics. High responsibility is related to lower job performance, especially in simple jobs where it doesn’t pay to be a perfectionist.
How long we stay on the clock and how we spend that time are under careful examination in many workplaces. The young banker who eats lunch at his desk is probably seen as a go-getter, while his colleagues who chat over a relaxed conference-room meal get dirty looks from the corner office. “People from cultures that value relationships more than ours does are shocked by the thought of eating alone in front of a computer”, says Art Markman, a professor of psychology at the University of Texas, Austin. Social interaction has been shown to lift mood (情绪) and get people thinking in new directions and in ways that could help improve any post-lunch effort.
Markman also promotes off-task time. “Part of being a good thinker is experiencing things that are seemingly unrelated to what you are working on at the moment but give you fresh ideas about your work,” he says. “Also, there is a lot of research showing that a positive mood leads to higher levels of productivity and creativity. So, when people do things to increase their life satisfaction, they also make themselves more effective at work.”
28. What does Ellen Langer’s study show?
A. It is worthwhile to be a perfectionist B. Translation makes people knowledgeable.
C. Moderate effort produces the best result. D. Simpler jobs require greater caution.
29. The underlined word “go-getter” in paragraph 3 refers to someone Who ________.
A. is good at handling pressure B. has a natural talent for his job
C. works hard to become successful D. gets on well with his co-workers
30. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. A good thinker is able to inspire other people. B. Experience unrelated to your job is useless.
C. Focusing on what you do raises productivity. D. A cheerful mood helps make a creative mind.
31. What does the text seem to advocate?
A. Balance between work and family. B. Middle-of-the-road work habits.
C. Long-standing cultural traditions. D. Harmony in the work environment.
D
When Chui-Lian Lee and Valentina Gomez started on their academic journeys as textile (织物) developing and marketing majors at the Fashion Institute of Technology, they were eager to learn more about the clothing industry. Some of the things they ended up learning shocked them. They found out that roughly 11 million tons of textile waste end up in landfill each year, and the chemicals and gases that emerge during decomposition pollute the earth.
Every single class that they joined, they’d go through the impacts and it’d be like, “Okay, cotton has this large of a water footprint and people are turning to organic cotton, but that’s not really a solution because of these reasons.” Or “People are looking at recycled polyester (涤纶) but that’s not great because it still releases micro-plastics.” As every solution they learned about came with drawbacks, they both wound up feeling really frustrated.
It wasn’t until the two joined a class on the application of biotechnology to the manufacturing of clothing that they realized there could be a more environmentally friendly option for the fashion industry. Lee and Gomez learned that they could use specially engineered proteins to create a fiber that avoids plastics and degrades (分解) naturally, and then the idea for Werewool was born. “By changing how we are creating the fibers that make up our clothing, we can change the entire life cycle of our clothing and their end-of-life impacts on the environment, avoiding pollution from plastics,” Lee explains.
The early-stage biotech company focusing on developing biodegradable fibers for the textile industry initially started as a research project that involved many sleepless nights in the lab. After winning the H&M Global Change Award in 2020, the project launched into a company. Over four years and 4.5 million dollars in funding later, Werewool now has 12employees and has begun working with brands to develop clothing out of their protein-based fibers, with the hope of launching products in 2025. By 2030, 125, 000 tons of fiber is expected to enter the market, which is about 390 million shirts.
“Our goal has always been to make the fashion industry friendly to nature,” says Lee.
32. What surprised Lee and Gomez when they learned about the clothing industry?
A. A wide range of textiles are produced every year.
B. There are many poisonous chemicals in clothing.
C. The textile waste is quite difficult to break down.
D. Clothing industry brings harm to the environment.
33. Why are organic cotton and recycled polyester mentioned?
A. To present features of organic clothing.
B. To introduce methods of recycling textile waste.
C. To show they’re not good options for sustainability.
D. To explain it is essential to reduce the water footprint.
34. What can we learn about Werewool according to the passage?
A. It has a bright prospect. B. It funds research on textile waste.
C. It proves to be highly profitable. D. It pioneers in plastics decomposition.
35. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. Breakthroughs in Applied Biotechnology B. Werewool Makes Fashion Green
C. Lee and Gomez’s Academic Journeys D. New Protein-based Fibers Hit the Market

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。
One sunny afternoon, Alice and I were walking home from school, lost in our girlish conversation. Alice, with her curious eyes sparkling, casually asked about my friendship with Judy. In a moment of thoughtlessness (轻率), I responded, “I only hung out with Judy because she asked me and I wasn’t keen on being friends with her. She was rather dull.” The unkind words just escaped my lips before I could catch them, like marbles rolling off a table.
Little did I know, Judy had been just around the corner somehow. When I glanced up, Judy appeared right in front of me, having accidentally overheard (偶然听见) everything. All the color faded from her face. Her eyes widening with shock, without a word, she rushed off. Alice and I were left standing there, exchanging a look of shame and discomfort. I knew I should run after Judy and apologize, but with my mind blank, I was frozen. Alice’s face turned red, too. We walked home in silence, each step heavier than the last.
The following days were filled with awkwardness. I felt terrible for what I’d said and was dying to mend our friendship. An honest apology was desperately needed. But what should I say? Unintentional as I was, I indeed hurt Judy’s feelings. Every time I saw Judy in the halls or during classes, I’d quickly look away.
Fate threw me a curve ball in our speech class. On Tuesday, Mr. Thomas announced that we would be giving improvised (即兴的) speeches. He had written our topics on slips of paper and put them into a secret jar. Each of us was asked to blindly choose one without knowing what it would be about. I couldn’t say I was not nervous. As I reached into the jar of topics, my fingers closed around the slip that read, “Share your most embarrassing moment.” My heart pounded like a drum roll in my chest. It was as if the universe had come my way to give me a chance.
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。
Knowing what I had to say, I calmed myself down and walked to the platform.

Jennifer Mauer has needed more willpower than college students to pursue her goal of earning a nursing degree. That willpower bore fruit when Jennifer graduated from University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire and became the first in her large family to earn a bachelor’s degree.
Jennifer, of Edgar, Wisconsin, grew up on a farm of 10 children. Her dad worked at a job away from the farm and her mother ran the farm with the kids. After high school, Jennifer attended a local technical college, working to pay her tuition (学费) , because there was no extra money set aside for a college education. After graduation, she worked to help her sisters and brothers pay for their schooling.
Jennifer now is married and has three children of her own. She decided to go back to college to advance her career and to be able to better support her family while doing something she loves: nursing. She chose the UW-Eau Claire program at Ministry Saint Joseph’s Hospital in Marshfield because she was able to pursue her four-year degree close to home. She could drive to class and be home in the evening to help with her kids. Jennifer received great support from her family as she worked to earn her degree: her husband worked two jobs to cover the bills, and her 68-year-old mother helped take care of the children at times.
Through it all, she remained in good academic standing and graduated with honors. Jennifer sacrificed to achieve her goal, giving up many nights with her kids and missing important events to study. “Some nights my heart was breaking to have to pick between my kids and studying for exams or papers,” she says. However, her children have learned an important lesson witnessing their mother earn her degree. Jennifer is a first-generation graduate and an inspiration to her family- and that’s pretty powerful.
24. What did Jennifer do after high school?
A. She helped her dad with his work. B. She supported herself through college.
C. She taught her sisters and brothers at home. D. She ran the family farm on her own.
25. Why did Jennifer choose the program at Ministry Saint Joseph’s Hospital in Marshfield?
A. To learn from the best nurses. B. To find a well- paid job there.
C. To save money for her parents. D. To take care of her kids easily.
26. What did Jennifer sacrifice to achieve her goal?
A. Her health. B. Her time with family.
C. Her reputation. D. Her chance of promotion.
27. What can we learn from Jennifer’s story?
A. Time is money. B. Education is the key to success.
C. Hard work pays off. D. Love breaks down misunderstandings.
【答案】24. B 25. D 26. B 27. C

Many people believe that working to the maximum is the secret to success, but research has found that moderation (适度) also gets results on the job.
In a study led by Ellen Langer of Harvard University, researchers asked people to translate sentences into a new made-up language. Subjects who practiced the language moderately beforehand made fewer errors than those who practiced extensively or not at all. High levels of knowledge can make people too attached to traditional ways of viewing problems across fields — the arts, sciences, and politics. High responsibility is related to lower job performance, especially in simple jobs where it doesn’t pay to be a perfectionist.
How long we stay on the clock and how we spend that time are under careful examination in many workplaces. The young banker who eats lunch at his desk is probably seen as a go-getter, while his colleagues who chat over a relaxed conference-room meal get dirty looks from the corner office. “People from cultures that value relationships more than ours does are shocked by the thought of eating alone in front of a computer”, says Art Markman, a professor of psychology at the University of Texas, Austin. Social interaction has been shown to lift mood (情绪) and get people thinking in new directions and in ways that could help improve any post-lunch effort.
Markman also promotes off-task time. “Part of being a good thinker is experiencing things that are seemingly unrelated to what you are working on at the moment but give you fresh ideas about your work,” he says. “Also, there is a lot of research showing that a positive mood leads to higher levels of productivity and creativity. So, when people do things to increase their life satisfaction, they also make themselves more effective at work.”
28. What does Ellen Langer’s study show?
A. It is worthwhile to be a perfectionist B. Translation makes people knowledgeable.
C. Moderate effort produces the best result. D. Simpler jobs require greater caution.
29. The underlined word “go-getter” in paragraph 3 refers to someone Who ________.
A. is good at handling pressure B. has a natural talent for his job
C. works hard to become successful D. gets on well with his co-workers
30. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. A good thinker is able to inspire other people. B. Experience unrelated to your job is useless.
C. Focusing on what you do raises productivity. D. A cheerful mood helps make a creative mind.
31. What does the text seem to advocate?
A. Balance between work and family. B. Middle-of-the-road work habits.
C. Long-standing cultural traditions. D. Harmony in the work environment.
【答案】28. C 29. C 30. D 31. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了适度工作而非过度工作是成功的秘诀,并给出了相关研究及观点支持这一论点。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“In a study led by Ellen Langer of Harvard University, researchers asked people to translate sentences into a new made- up language. Subjects who practiced the language moderately beforehand made fewer errors than those who practiced extensively or not at all.(在哈佛大学Ellen Langer领导的一项研究中,研究人员要求人们将句子翻译成一种新编造的语言。事先适度练习这门语言的受试者比那些大量练习或根本不练习的受试者犯的错误更少。)”可知,Ellen Langer的研究表明了适度的努力会产生最好的结果。故选C。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段中“The young banker who eats lunch at his desk is probably seen as a go-getter, while his colleagues who chat over a relaxed conference-room meal get dirty looks from the corner office.(在办公桌前吃午饭的年轻银行家可能被视为go-getter,而那些在会议室轻松用餐时聊天的同事则会遭到高层的白眼。)”可知,前后两句形成对比,在办公桌前吃午饭的年轻银行家努力工作,而那些在会议室轻松用餐时聊天的同事则没有努力工作,所以go-getter指的是努力工作以取得成功的人。故选C。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Also, there is a lot of research showing that a positive mood leads to higher levels of productivity and creativity. So, when people do things to increase their life satisfaction, they also make themselves more effective at work.(此外,大量研究表明,积极的情绪能提高生产力和创造力。所以,当人们做一些事情来提高他们的生活满意度时,他们也会让自己在工作中更有效率。)”可知,愉快的心情有助于激发创造力。故选D。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是根据第一段“Many people believe that working to the maximum is the secret to success, but research has found that moderation (适度) also gets results on the job.(许多人认为最大限度地工作是成功的秘诀,但研究发现,适度工作在工作中也能取得成果。)”以及下文所给的研究及观点可知,文章主要倡导的是中庸的工作习惯。故选B。
D
When Chui-Lian Lee and Valentina Gomez started on their academic journeys as textile (织物) developing and marketing majors at the Fashion Institute of Technology, they were eager to learn more about the clothing industry. Some of the things they ended up learning shocked them. They found out that roughly 11 million tons of textile waste end up in landfill each year, and the chemicals and gases that emerge during decomposition pollute the earth.
Every single class that they joined, they’d go through the impacts and it’d be like, “Okay, cotton has this large of a water footprint and people are turning to organic cotton, but that’s not really a solution because of these reasons.” Or “People are looking at recycled polyester (涤纶) but that’s not great because it still releases micro-plastics.” As every solution they learned about came with drawbacks, they both wound up feeling really frustrated.
It wasn’t until the two joined a class on the application of biotechnology to the manufacturing of clothing that they realized there could be a more environmentally friendly option for the fashion industry. Lee and Gomez learned that they could use specially engineered proteins to create a fiber that avoids plastics and degrades (分解) naturally, and then the idea for Werewool was born. “By changing how we are creating the fibers that make up our clothing, we can change the entire life cycle of our clothing and their end-of-life impacts on the environment, avoiding pollution from plastics,” Lee explains.
The early-stage biotech company focusing on developing biodegradable fibers for the textile industry initially started as a research project that involved many sleepless nights in the lab. After winning the H&M Global Change Award in 2020, the project launched into a company. Over four years and 4.5 million dollars in funding later, Werewool now has 12employees and has begun working with brands to develop clothing out of their protein-based fibers, with the hope of launching products in 2025. By 2030, 125, 000 tons of fiber is expected to enter the market, which is about 390 million shirts.
“Our goal has always been to make the fashion industry friendly to nature,” says Lee.
32. What surprised Lee and Gomez when they learned about the clothing industry?
A. A wide range of textiles are produced every year.
B. There are many poisonous chemicals in clothing.
C. The textile waste is quite difficult to break down.
D. Clothing industry brings harm to the environment.
33. Why are organic cotton and recycled polyester mentioned?
A. To present features of organic clothing.
B. To introduce methods of recycling textile waste.
C. To show they’re not good options for sustainability.
D. To explain it is essential to reduce the water footprint.
34. What can we learn about Werewool according to the passage?
A. It has a bright prospect. B. It funds research on textile waste.
C. It proves to be highly profitable. D. It pioneers in plastics decomposition.
35. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. Breakthroughs in Applied Biotechnology B. Werewool Makes Fashion Green
C. Lee and Gomez’s Academic Journeys D. New Protein-based Fibers Hit the Market
【答案】32. D 33. C 34. A 35. B
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文,讲述了Chui-Lian Lee和Valentina Gomez创立了Werewool公司,它致力于开发可生物降解的纤维,使时尚更环保。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Some of the things they ended up learning shocked them. They found out that roughly 11 million tons of textile waste end up in landfill each year, and the chemicals and gases that emerge during decomposition pollute the earth.(他们最终学到的一些东西震惊了他们。他们发现,每年大约有1100万吨纺织垃圾被填埋,在分解过程中产生的化学物质和气体污染了地球)”可知,当Lee和Gomez知道服装业给环境带来危害时,他们很惊讶。故选D。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Every single class that they joined, they’d go through the impacts and it’d be like, “Okay, cotton has this large of a water footprint and people are turning to organic cotton, but that’s not really a solution because of these reasons.” Or “People are looking at recycled polyester (涤纶) but that’s not great because it still releases micro-plastics.” As every solution they learned about came with drawbacks, they both wound up feeling really frustrated.(他们参加的每一堂课都会讲解相关的影响情况,比如:“比如棉花的用水量就很大,人们开始转向有机棉,但这并不是一个真正的解决方案,原因就在于这些方面。”或者“人们也在关注再生涤纶,但这也不是个好选择,因为它仍然会释放微塑料。”由于他们所了解到的每一个解决方案都有其弊端,所以他们俩最终都感到非常沮丧)”可知,文章提到有机棉花和回收聚酯是为了证明它们不是可持续发展的好选择。故选C。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Lee and Gomez learned that they could use specially engineered proteins to create a fiber that avoids plastics and degrades (分解) naturally, and then the idea for Werewool was born. “By changing how we are creating the fibers that make up our clothing, we can change the entire life cycle of our clothing and their end-of-life impacts on the environment, avoiding pollution from plastics,” Lee explains.(李和戈麦斯了解到,他们可以利用经过特殊设计的蛋白质来制造一种既不含塑料又能够自然分解的纤维,于是“Werewool”这一概念便应运而生了。李解释道:“通过改变构成我们衣物的纤维的制造方式,我们能够改变衣物的整个生命周期以及它们对环境的最终影响,从而避免塑料带来的污染。”)”可知,Werewool前景广阔。故选A。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章全文尤其是第三段“Lee and Gomez learned that they could use specially engineered proteins to create a fiber that avoids plastics and degrades (分解) naturally, and then the idea for Werewool was born.(李和戈麦斯了解到,他们可以使用特殊工程蛋白来制造一种纤维,这种纤维可以避免塑料,并且可以自然降解,于是,Werewool诞生了。)”可知,本文主要讲述了Chui-Lian Lee和Valentina Gomez创立了Werewool公司,它致力于开发可生物降解的纤维,使时尚更环保。B选项“Werewool让时尚更环保”适合作为本文标题。故选B。

【答案】56. was rushed
57. a 58. where
59. to 60. effects
61. concentrating
62. it 63. energetic
64. strongly
65. is
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要以15岁女孩Jennifer Jones上体育课晕倒送医的事件为引子,批判了当下社会以瘦为美的畸形观念,指出青少年极端减肥的危害,并强调健康生活才是塑形的最佳方式。
【56题详解】
考查动词语态及主谓一致。句意:15岁的Jennifer Jones昨天上午体育课上晕倒,被紧急送往医院。根据时间状语“yesterday”可知,此处描述过去的事件,应用一般过去时;主语“Jennifer Jones”与“rush”之间为被动关系,即她被匆忙送医,应用被动语态,且主语为单数,be动词用was。故填was rushed。
【57题详解】
考查冠词。句意:幸运的是,Jennifer现在已经脱离危险,医生说她一两天内就能完全康复。“make a full recovery”为固定搭配,意为“完全康复”,full以辅音音素开头,应用不定冠词a来修饰。故填a。
【58题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:在一个往往以瘦为美的社会里,青少年有时会采取极端方法快速瘦身。此处引导限制性定语从句,先行词是“a society”,表示抽象地点,关系词在从句中作地点状语,应用关系副词where来引导。故填where。
【59题详解】
考查介词。句意:同上。“turn to”为固定短语,意为“求助于;采取”,to是介词。故填to。
【60题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:一些青少年甚至服用减肥药,这已被证明对他们的健康有副作用。“side effect”意为“副作用”,为可数名词;结合语境可知,减肥药的副作用不止一种,应用复数形式。故填effects。
【61题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:上课时,他们经常感到疲惫,难以集中精力听课。“have trouble (in) doing sth.”为固定搭配,意为“做某事有困难”,所以此处应用concentrate的动名词形式作宾语。故填concentrating。
【62题详解】
考查it作形式主语。句意:健康专家表示,青少年稍微超重是很正常的。此处为“it is+adj.+for sb. to do sth.”固定句型,所以应用it作形式主语,真正的主语为后面的不定式短语“to be slightly overweight”。故填it。
【63题详解】
考查形容词。句意:青少年仍处在发育期,他们的身体需要大量营养来维持良好运转,保持精力充沛。此处作系动词stay的表语,应用energy的形容词形式energetic,意为“精力充沛的”。故填energetic。
【64题详解】
考查副词。句意:专家们强烈建议所有青少年遵循健康生活的小贴士。此处修饰动词encourage,应用strong的副词形式strongly作状语,意为“强烈地”。故填strongly。
【65题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:因为健康生活才是塑形最安全、最有效的方式。此处描述客观事实,应用一般现在时;主语“living well”为动名词短语,视为单数,be动词应用is。故填is。

第二节 (满分25分)
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。
One sunny afternoon, Alice and I were walking home from school, lost in our girlish conversation. Alice, with her curious eyes sparkling, casually asked about my friendship with Judy. In a moment of thoughtlessness (轻率), I responded, “I only hung out with Judy because she asked me and I wasn’t keen on being friends with her. She was rather dull.” The unkind words just escaped my lips before I could catch them, like marbles rolling off a table.
Little did I know, Judy had been just around the corner somehow. When I glanced up, Judy appeared right in front of me, having accidentally overheard (偶然听见) everything. All the color faded from her face. Her eyes widening with shock, without a word, she rushed off. Alice and I were left standing there, exchanging a look of shame and discomfort. I knew I should run after Judy and apologize, but with my mind blank, I was frozen. Alice’s face turned red, too. We walked home in silence, each step heavier than the last.
The following days were filled with awkwardness. I felt terrible for what I’d said and was dying to mend our friendship. An honest apology was desperately needed. But what should I say? Unintentional as I was, I indeed hurt Judy’s feelings. Every time I saw Judy in the halls or during classes, I’d quickly look away.
Fate threw me a curve ball in our speech class. On Tuesday, Mr. Thomas announced that we would be giving improvised (即兴的) speeches. He had written our topics on slips of paper and put them into a secret jar. Each of us was asked to blindly choose one without knowing what it would be about. I couldn’t say I was not nervous. As I reached into the jar of topics, my fingers closed around the slip that read, “Share your most embarrassing moment.” My heart pounded like a drum roll in my chest. It was as if the universe had come my way to give me a chance.
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。
Knowing what I had to say, I calmed myself down and walked to the platform.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
That day marked a turning point.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】例文
Knowing what I had to say, I calmed myself down and walked to the platform. I took a deep breath and began. With my voice shaking, I spoke of my inconsiderate behaviour, deep regret and the upsetting result without exposing Judy’s name. After finishing my heartfelt speech, with sweat flowing down my face, I didn’t dare to expect my classmates’ response. To my surprise, they applauded for my sincerity. Even Mr. Thomas praised my courage to admit my fault and apologize publicly. Back to my seat, I stole a look at Judy and amazingly found she was also looking at me with tears.
That day marked a turning point. Although Judy and I never directly talked about that unpleasant event, our interactions slowly returned to normal. We laughed and chatted again, as if a silent forgiveness had been granted. I was never proud of my bravery in that speech class. Instead, I knew for sure it was an experience to be modestly thankful for. Here are the lessons I have carried close to my heart ever since: Speaking ill of others plants seeds of regret and true friendships deserve the respect of honest words and open hearts.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了作者轻率评价好友Judy被其听见,陷入愧疚与尴尬后,借演讲课“分享最尴尬时刻”的即兴演讲机会间接道歉,最终与Judy重归于好,并收获人生感悟的故事。
【详解】1. 段落续写:
①由第一段首句“知道自己要说什么,我冷静下来,走向讲台。”可知,第一段可描写作者在讲台上讲述自己因说话不考虑他人感受而后悔的经历,以及演讲结束后同学们、老师和Judy的反应。
②由第二段首句“那天是一个转折点。”可知,第二段可描写从那之后作者和Judy的关系转变,以及作者从这次经历中得到的感悟。
2. 续写线索:走上讲台——讲述经历——得到掌声和赞扬——Judy的反应——友谊逐渐修复——得到感悟
3. 词汇激活
行为类:
①完成:finish/complete
②期待:expect/anticipate
③称赞:praise/commend
④偷看:steal a look at/take a peek at
⑤恢复:return to normal/get back to normal
情感类:
①真诚的:heartfelt/sincere
②惊讶:surprise/astonishment
③感激的:thankful/grateful
【点睛】[高分句型 1]. With my voice shaking, I spoke of my inconsiderate behaviour, deep regret and the upsetting result without exposing Judy’s name.(运用了with复合结构作状语)
[高分句型 2]. Although Judy and I never directly talked about that unpleasant event, our interactions slowly returned to normal.(运用了although引导的让步状语从句)
[高分句型 3]. Here are the lessons I have carried close to my heart ever since: Speaking ill of others plants seeds of regret and true friendships deserve the respect of honest words and open hearts.(运用了副词Here开头的完全倒装句;和省略了关系词that/which的定语从句,先行词为the lessons;以及动名词短语Speaking ill of others作主语)
