B The 16-year-old Australian Shalise Leesfield couldn’t think of a better creature to meet than a gray nurse shark when diving off the coast. “I know how scary they can look, but I promise they are the sweetest animals ever,” she says. But they are under threat. Leesfield is working with Cate Faehrmann, member of parliament (议会) and marine spokesperson for the Australian Greens party in New South Wales, to legalize protection of the sharks. Faehrmann says that she’s proud to have worked with Leesfield. “Shalise is part of a new generation of campaigners speaking up for the environment and our future is a lot brighter as a result of their passion and determination to save our planet and our precious wildlife.” For someone who hasn’t yet left high school, this sounds like an impressive achievement, but Leesfield’s track record in conservation goes beyond protecting gray nurse sharks. Aged 11, after noticing the damage plastic pollution can do to the marine environment, she started a campaign that called for fishing line collection bins to be set in her local area to reduce ocean pollution. It resulted in a government environmental grant worth more than $48,000.Since then, she has founded “Shalise’s Ocean Support” which aims to inspire people to take care of the environment, and started a “Plastic Free Schools” website which advises teachers and students on reducing school waste. Leesfield’s devotion to the cause comes from a deep love of the ocean that grew from her experiences of diving. “Falling in love with the sea made my passion grow and made me stand up for what I really love,” she says. She believes that the younger generation needs to get out of the mindset that saving the environment is something that should be “left up to the adults”. “We are the ones that will take over the Earth and the ocean,” she says. 4. What does Shalise Leesfield think of gray nurse sharks? A. They are wonderful creatures. B. Their behaviors are human-like. C. Their looks are attractive. D. They are threatening. 5. How does Shalise Leesfield protect grey nurse sharks? A. By cooperating with her teachers. B. By helping make related laws. C. By calling on adults to participate. D. By starting a campaign to raise money. 6. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. Leesfiled has become a candidate of parliament. B. Leesfield has done much to protect the environment. C. Leesfield successfully attracted the government’s attention to pollution. D. Leesfiled persuaded teachers and students to reduce school waste. 7. What is the best title for the text? A. A new field for teenagers to explore B. A chance to contact sharks through diving C. A new website—Plastic Free Schools in Australia D. An Australian teenager on a mission to protect sharks C After years of observing human nature, I have decided that two qualities make the difference between men of great achievement and men of average performance curiosity and discontent. I have never known an outstanding man who lacked either. And I have never known an average man who had both. The two belong together. Together, these deep human urges (驱策力) count for much more that ambition. Galileo was not merely ambitious when he dropped objects of varying weights from the Leaning Tower at Pisa and timed their fall to the ground. Like Galileo, all the great names in history were curious and asked in discontent, “Why? Why? Why?” Fortunately, curiosity and discontent don’t have to be learned. We are born with them and need only recapture them. “The great man,” said Mencius (孟子), “is he who does not lose his child’s heart.” Yet most of us do lose it. We stop asking questions. We stop challenging custom. We just follow the crowd. And the crowd desires restful average. It encourages us to occupy our own little corner, to avoid foolish leaps into the dark, to be satisfied. Most of us meet new people, and new ideas, with hesitation. But once having met and liked them, we think how terrible it would have been, had we missed the chance. We will probably have to force ourselves to waken our curiosity and discontent and keep them awake. How should you start? Modestly, so as not to become discouraged. I think of one friend who couldn’t arrange flowers to satisfy herself. She was curious about how the experts did it. How she is one of the experts, writing books on flower arrangement. One way to begin is to answer your own excuses. You haven’t any special ability? Most people don’t; there are only a few geniuses. You haven’t any time? That’s good, because it’s always the people with no time who get things done. Harriet Stowe, mother of six, wrote parts of Uncle Tom’s Cabinwhile cooking. You’re too old? Remember that Thomas Costain was 57 when he published his first novel, and that Grandma Moses showed her first pictures when she was 78. However you start, remember there is no better time to start than right now, for you’ll never be more alive than you are at this moment. 8. In writing Paragraph 1, the author aims to ________. A. propose a definition B. make a comparison C. reach a conclusion D. present an argument 9. What does the example of Galileo tell us? A. Trial and error leads to the finding of truth. B. Scientists tend to be curious and ambitious. C. Creativity results from challenging authority. D. Greatness comes from a lasting desire to explore. 10. What can you do to recapture curiosity and discontent? A. Observe the unknown around you. B. Develop a questioning mind. C. Lead a life of adventure. D. Follow the fashion. 11. What can we learn from Paragraphs 6 and 7? A. Gaining success helps you become an expert. B. The genius tends to get things done creatively. C. Lack of talent and time is no reason for taking no action. D. You should remain modest when approaching perfection. 12. What could be the best title or the passage? A. Curious Minds Never Feel Contented B. Reflections on Human Nature C. The Keys to Achievement D. Never Too Late to Learn D A new study published in the Journal of Applied Ecology revealed when, where and how most songbirds migrate offshore over North American coasts. This data can help wind energy managers cut down on birds dying from hitting wind turbines (涡轮机) while generating sustainable energy. The researchers studied 10 years of weather radar data from 16 sites and found that birds flying over the Atlantic Coast and the Gulf of Mexico gather more closely and move for a shorter time than those flying over land. More birds also migrate in fall than in spring. Shannon Curley, the study’s lead researcher, explained, “Birds migrate over the sea on fewer nights than over land. There’s no place to rest and refuel on the water, so birds may wait for ideal atmospheric conditions, such as favorable winds, before making an offshore crossing.” This short yet critical time window gives wind energy managers a chance to reduce collisions (相撞). Curley said they could pause turbine work on nights when migration is most intense-a practice that is currently more common in Europe than North America. “These peak nights of migration tend to have fairly nice weather and calmer winds, and are therefore not the nights when wind operators have a huge energy harvest,”Curley noted. “So there might be a sweet spot where we can target these big migration nights and give these birds safe passage.” The study also found that songbirds migrating offshore fly at lower altitudes than those migrating over land, potentially putting them at greater risk of wind turbine collisions. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service says 140,000 to 327,000 birds die from land turbines each year. But no one knows how many die from offshore turbines, since dead birds’ bodies wash away easily. So using radar technology to identify high-risk areas is key. With one-third of all American bird species rapidly declining, data-driven decisions about turbine siting and operations can point the way to sustainable energy while also saving birds. “Our hope is that this work will help identify high-risk, high-use areas for birds and contribute to positive green energy solutions,” Curley said. 13. What can we learn about the songbirds in paragraph 2? A. They favor flying over open seas. B. They become more active on spring nights. C. They are particular about where to rest. D. They time crossings by weather conditions. 14. What does the underlined phrase “a sweet spot” refer to? A. An ideal balance. B. A moral dilemma. C. An opportunity for profit. D. A place without turbines. 15. Why is it difficult to identify high-risk areas offshore? A. Birds change their travelling routes. B. Wind strength at sea is unpredictable. C. Dead birds’ bodies are hard to trace. D. Radar technology is underdeveloped. 16. What does Curley think of the potential application of the new research? A. Risky. B. Promising. C. Productive. D. Challenging. 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。 As a writer, I interview experts about health and wellness.

For me, the Easter holidays were so boring that it was impossible to find something fun to do. My mom had suggested that I do some studies since the promotion test was coming up. However, I didn’t follow my mother’s suggestion. Instead, I went outside to seek out my friends to play with. When I had successfully contacted some of my friends, none of them seemed to be much in a playful mood, but one friend Jimmy agreed to play with me. He suggested we go down to the river and just relax there. The river was not far from my home, and we arrived there quickly. Just relaxing on the river bank with nothing but some waste logs, it wasn’t fun for us at first. Clearly what was on our minds was to jump into the river and just take a swim in the clear cool water. So we took off our clothes down to our underwear and walked into the shallow part of the water. The water was truly cool and refreshing and we were starting to have fun then, playing and laughing, as we splashed the cool water onto each other’s faces. Then we started to chase each other around on the river bank and then we ran straight into the river. We were having so much fun that we didn’t notice danger was around the corner. Before Jimmy could know it, and before he could do anything to keep his balance, he lost his footing on a tree branch, which was in the shallow part of the water, and slipped, bringing his whole entire body into the deep water. He tried to resurface from the water but found it extremely hard to keep his head above the water. 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。 I was scared to see him struggling in the water but I knew I must rescue him. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After a while, Jimmy recovered from panic and thanked my mom and the neighbors. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025—2026学年度上学期高三年级 校内三模考试英语试题 命题人：高二备课组 (本试卷共6页，满分150分，考试时间120分钟) 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) 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。 1.

It resulted in a government environmental grant worth more than $48,000.Since then, she has founded “Shalise’s Ocean Support” which aims to inspire people to take care of the environment, and started a “Plastic Free Schools” website which advises teachers and students on reducing school waste. Leesfield’s devotion to the cause comes from a deep love of the ocean that grew from her experiences of diving. “Falling in love with the sea made my passion grow and made me stand up for what I really love,” she says. She believes that the younger generation needs to get out of the mindset that saving the environment is something that should be “left up to the adults”. “We are the ones that will take over the Earth and the ocean,” she says. 4. What does Shalise Leesfield think of gray nurse sharks? A. They are wonderful creatures. B. Their behaviors are human-like. C. Their looks are attractive. D. They are threatening. 5. How does Shalise Leesfield protect grey nurse sharks? A. By cooperating with her teachers. B. By helping make related laws. C. By calling on adults to participate. D. By starting a campaign to raise money. 6. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. Leesfiled has become a candidate of parliament. B. Leesfield has done much to protect the environment. C. Leesfield successfully attracted the government’s attention to pollution. D. Leesfiled persuaded teachers and students to reduce school waste. 7. What is the best title for the text? A. A new field for teenagers to explore B. A chance to contact sharks through diving C. A new website—Plastic Free Schools in Australia D. An Australian teenager on a mission to protect sharks 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了16岁的澳大利亚女孩Shalise Leesfield努力保护海洋环境的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“The 16-year-old Australian Shalise Leesfield couldn’t think of a better creature to meet than a gray nurse shark when diving off the coast.(16岁的澳大利亚人莎莉丝·里斯菲尔德在海岸潜水时，想不出比遇见灰色护士鲨更好的生物了。)”和“I know how scary they can look, but I promise they are the sweetest animals ever(我知道它们看起来有多可怕，但我保证它们是有史以来最可爱的动物)”可知，莎莉丝·里斯菲尔德对灰护士鲨的看法是它们是奇妙的生物。故选A项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Leesfield is working with Cate Faehrmann, member of parliament (议会) and marine spokesperson for the Australian Greens party in New South Wales, to legalize protection of the sharks.(利斯菲尔德正与新南威尔士州议会议员、澳大利亚绿党海洋事务发言人凯特·法尔曼合作，将保护鲨鱼合法化。)”可知，利斯菲尔德通过帮助制定相关法律来保护灰护士鲨。故选B项。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“For someone who hasn’t yet left high school, this sounds like an impressive achievement, but Leesfield’s track record in conservation goes beyond protecting gray nurse sharks.(对于还没有高中毕业的人来说，这听起来是一个令人印象深刻的成就，但里斯菲尔德在保护动物方面的记录不仅仅是保护灰护士鲨。)”和“she started a campaign that called for fishing line collection bins to be set in her local area to reduce ocean pollution.(她发起了一项运动，呼吁在她所在的地区设置钓鱼线收集箱，以减少海洋污染。)”可知，里斯菲尔德在保护动物方面的记录不仅仅是保护灰护士鲨，还在减少海洋污染方面做了很多努力，所以本段主要内容是利斯菲尔德为保护环境做了很多工作。故选B项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。分析全文内容可知，文章主要介绍了16岁的澳大利亚女孩Shalise Leesfield努力保护海洋环境的故事，所以D选项“一名澳大利亚少年肩负着保护鲨鱼的使命”能概括全文内容，适合用作文章标题。故选D项。 C After years of observing human nature, I have decided that two qualities make the difference between men of great achievement and men of average performance curiosity and discontent. I have never known an outstanding man who lacked either. And I have never known an average man who had both. The two belong together. Together, these deep human urges (驱策力) count for much more that ambition. Galileo was not merely ambitious when he dropped objects of varying weights from the Leaning Tower at Pisa and timed their fall to the ground. Like Galileo, all the great names in history were curious and asked in discontent, “Why? Why? Why?” Fortunately, curiosity and discontent don’t have to be learned. We are born with them and need only recapture them. “The great man,” said Mencius (孟子), “is he who does not lose his child’s heart.” Yet most of us do lose it. We stop asking questions. We stop challenging custom. We just follow the crowd. And the crowd desires restful average. It encourages us to occupy our own little corner, to avoid foolish leaps into the dark, to be satisfied. Most of us meet new people, and new ideas, with hesitation. But once having met and liked them, we think how terrible it would have been, had we missed the chance. We will probably have to force ourselves to waken our curiosity and discontent and keep them awake. How should you start? Modestly, so as not to become discouraged. I think of one friend who couldn’t arrange flowers to satisfy herself. She was curious about how the experts did it. How she is one of the experts, writing books on flower arrangement. One way to begin is to answer your own excuses. You haven’t any special ability? Most people don’t; there are only a few geniuses. You haven’t any time? That’s good, because it’s always the people with no time who get things done. Harriet Stowe, mother of six, wrote parts of Uncle Tom’s Cabinwhile cooking. You’re too old? Remember that Thomas Costain was 57 when he published his first novel, and that Grandma Moses showed her first pictures when she was 78. However you start, remember there is no better time to start than right now, for you’ll never be more alive than you are at this moment. 8. In writing Paragraph 1, the author aims to ________. A. propose a definition B. make a comparison C. reach a conclusion D. present an argument 9. What does the example of Galileo tell us? A. Trial and error leads to the finding of truth. B. Scientists tend to be curious and ambitious. C. Creativity results from challenging authority. D. Greatness comes from a lasting desire to explore. 10. What can you do to recapture curiosity and discontent? A. Observe the unknown around you. B. Develop a questioning mind. C. Lead a life of adventure. D. Follow the fashion. 11. What can we learn from Paragraphs 6 and 7? A. Gaining success helps you become an expert. B. The genius tends to get things done creatively. C. Lack of talent and time is no reason for taking no action. D. You should remain modest when approaching perfection. 12. What could be the best title or the passage? A. Curious Minds Never Feel Contented B. Reflections on Human Nature C. The Keys to Achievement D. Never Too Late to Learn 【答案】8. D 9. D 10. B 11. C 12. C 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇议论文。文章论述了获得成就的两个关键因素——好奇心和不满足。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段内容After years of observing human nature, I have decided that two qualities make the difference between men of great achievement and men of average performance curiosity and discontent. I have never known an outstanding man who lacked either. And I have never known an average man who had both. The two belong together.可知，作者经过多年对人性的观察，认为成就非凡的人和平庸的人的区别在于好奇心和不满足，而且两者是相辅相成的。由此推知，作者写第一段的目的是提出一个论点。故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的Like Galileo, all the great names in history were curious and asked in discontent, “Why? Why? Why?”可知，像伽利略一样，历史上所有的伟人都感到好奇，并不满地问：“为什么？为什么？为什么？”由此推知，伽利略的例子告诉我们，伟大来自于持久的探索欲望。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的Like Galileo, all the great names in history were curious and asked in discontent, “Why? Why? Why?”及第四段中的“The great man,” said Mencius (孟子), “is he who does not lose his child’s heart.” Yet most of us do lose it. We stop asking questions. We stop challenging custom. We just follow the crowd.可知，历史上所有的伟人都感到好奇，并不满地问：“为什么？为什么？为什么？”孟子认为“不失去孩子的心，就是伟大的人。”然而，我们大多数人确实失去了它。我们不再问问题。我们不再挑战习俗。我们只是随大流。由此可知，你可以通过培养了一个善于提问的头脑，来重新获得好奇心和不满。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段中的How she is one of the experts, writing books on flower arrangement.及第七段中的You haven’t any special ability? Most people don’t; there are only a few geniuses. You haven’t any time? That’s good, because it’s always the people with no time who get things done.以及列举了Thomas Costain在57岁时出版了他的第一部小说，Grandma Moses在78岁时展示了她的第一批照片。由此可知，这两段想告诉我们“缺乏天赋和时间不是不采取行动的理由”。故选C。 【12题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段内容After years of observing human nature, I have decided that two qualities make the difference between men of great achievement and men of average performance curiosity and discontent. I have never known an outstanding man who lacked either. And I have never known an average man who had both. The two belong together.及下文论述可知，本文主要论述了获得成就的两个关键因素——好奇心和不满足。由此可知，C项The Keys to Achievement(成就的关键)适合做本文最佳标题。故选C。 D A new study published in the Journal of Applied Ecology revealed when, where and how most songbirds migrate offshore over North American coasts. This data can help wind energy managers cut down on birds dying from hitting wind turbines (涡轮机) while generating sustainable energy. The researchers studied 10 years of weather radar data from 16 sites and found that birds flying over the Atlantic Coast and the Gulf of Mexico gather more closely and move for a shorter time than those flying over land. More birds also migrate in fall than in spring. Shannon Curley, the study’s lead researcher, explained, “Birds migrate over the sea on fewer nights than over land. There’s no place to rest and refuel on the water, so birds may wait for ideal atmospheric conditions, such as favorable winds, before making an offshore crossing.” This short yet critical time window gives wind energy managers a chance to reduce collisions (相撞). Curley said they could pause turbine work on nights when migration is most intense-a practice that is currently more common in Europe than North America. “These peak nights of migration tend to have fairly nice weather and calmer winds, and are therefore not the nights when wind operators have a huge energy harvest,”Curley noted. “So there might be a sweet spot where we can target these big migration nights and give these birds safe passage.” The study also found that songbirds migrating offshore fly at lower altitudes than those migrating over land, potentially putting them at greater risk of wind turbine collisions. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service says 140,000 to 327,000 birds die from land turbines each year. But no one knows how many die from offshore turbines, since dead birds’ bodies wash away easily. So using radar technology to identify high-risk areas is key. With one-third of all American bird species rapidly declining, data-driven decisions about turbine siting and operations can point the way to sustainable energy while also saving birds. “Our hope is that this work will help identify high-risk, high-use areas for birds and contribute to positive green energy solutions,” Curley said. 13. What can we learn about the songbirds in paragraph 2? A. They favor flying over open seas. B. They become more active on spring nights. C. They are particular about where to rest. D. They time crossings by weather conditions. 14. What does the underlined phrase “a sweet spot” refer to? A. An ideal balance. B. A moral dilemma. C. An opportunity for profit. D. A place without turbines. 15. Why is it difficult to identify high-risk areas offshore? A. Birds change their travelling routes. B. Wind strength at sea is unpredictable. C. Dead birds’ bodies are hard to trace. D. Radar technology is underdeveloped. 16. What does Curley think of the potential application of the new research? A. Risky. B. Promising. C. Productive. D. Challenging. 【答案】13. D 14. A 15. C 16. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。一项新研究揭示北美海岸鸣禽近海迁徙规律，为风电运营商提供数据支持，可通过调整涡轮机运行保护鸟类，助力绿色能源与生态保护平衡。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Birds migrate over the sea on fewer nights than over land. There’s no place to rest and refuel on the water, so birds may wait for ideal atmospheric conditions, such as favorable winds, before making an offshore crossing. (鸟类在海上迁徙的夜晚比在陆地上少。水面上没有休息和补充能量的地方，所以鸟类在进行近海迁徙前可能会等待理想的大气条件，比如适宜的风。)”可知，鸣禽会根据天气条件选择迁徙时机。故选D项。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“These peak nights of migration tend to have fairly nice weather and calmer winds, and are therefore not the nights when wind operators have a huge energy harvest,”Curley noted. “So there might be a sweet spot where we can target these big migration nights and give these birds safe passage.” (柯利指出：“这些鸟类迁徙的高峰夜晚，天气往往晴好、风力平缓，因此并非风电运营商获取大量能源的时段。所以或许存在 a sweet spot —— 我们可以针对这些大规模迁徙的夜晚，为鸟类开辟安全通道。”)”可知，a sweet spot指的是 “理想平衡”，既不影响能源收获，又能保护鸟类。故选A项。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“But no one knows how many die from offshore turbines, since dead birds’ bodies wash away easily. So using radar technology to identify high-risk areas is key. (但没人知道有多少鸟类死于近海涡轮机，因为死鸟的尸体很容易被冲走。因此，使用雷达技术识别高风险区域至关重要。)”可知，近海高风险区域难以识别是因为死鸟尸体难以追踪。故选C项。 【16题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Our hope is that this work will help identify high-risk, high-use areas for birds and contribute to positive green energy solutions, (我们希望这项研究能帮助识别鸟类的高风险、高频使用区域，并为积极的绿色能源解决方案做出贡献)”可知，柯利认为这项研究的潜在应用前景光明。故选B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。 As a writer, I interview experts about health and wellness.

For me, the Easter holidays were so boring that it was impossible to find something fun to do. My mom had suggested that I do some studies since the promotion test was coming up. However, I didn’t follow my mother’s suggestion. Instead, I went outside to seek out my friends to play with. When I had successfully contacted some of my friends, none of them seemed to be much in a playful mood, but one friend Jimmy agreed to play with me. He suggested we go down to the river and just relax there. The river was not far from my home, and we arrived there quickly. Just relaxing on the river bank with nothing but some waste logs, it wasn’t fun for us at first. Clearly what was on our minds was to jump into the river and just take a swim in the clear cool water. So we took off our clothes down to our underwear and walked into the shallow part of the water. The water was truly cool and refreshing and we were starting to have fun then, playing and laughing, as we splashed the cool water onto each other’s faces. Then we started to chase each other around on the river bank and then we ran straight into the river. We were having so much fun that we didn’t notice danger was around the corner. Before Jimmy could know it, and before he could do anything to keep his balance, he lost his footing on a tree branch, which was in the shallow part of the water, and slipped, bringing his whole entire body into the deep water. He tried to resurface from the water but found it extremely hard to keep his head above the water. 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。 I was scared to see him struggling in the water but I knew I must rescue him. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After a while, Jimmy recovered from panic and thanked my mom and the neighbors. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】I was scared to see him struggling in the water but I knew I must rescue him. I took a deep breath to keep calm. Looking around, I found a waste log, I threw it to him immediately and asked him to hold it and not to give up. At the same time I yelled for help, hoping someone could come to our rescue. Luckily, my mom heard my cries, rushed out of the house and raced towards us. She jumped into the water and reached out her hands to pull him. Several neighbors also quickly joined the rescue. They managed to get Jimmy out of the water. Finally, Jimmy was saved, pale and shivering. After a while, Jimmy recovered from panic and thanked my mom and the neighbors. We hugged each other in tears. I thought my mom would scold me. But she just held us in her arms tightly. She warned us it was dangerous to swim in the river. Both of us felt ashamed and promised never to do that again. This was really a special Easter, one I would never forget. For Jimmy, he had a narrow escape from drowning. For me, I felt the kindness of my neighbors. 【解析】 【导语】本文以时间发展为线索展开，讲述了作者与朋友吉米一起到河边玩耍，没有意识到危险的临近，导致他的朋友吉米在不知不觉中掉入深水的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“看到他在水里挣扎，我很害怕，但我知道我必须救他”可知，第一段可描写作者一边施救一边呼叫帮助，作者的妈妈以及邻居闻声赶来救出了作者的朋友吉米。 ②由第二段首句内容“过了一会儿，吉米从恐慌中恢复过来，感谢我妈妈和邻居们。”可知，第二段可描写作者的妈妈没有批评他，告诉他在河里游泳很危险。吉米险些溺水，而作者感受到了邻居的善良。 2.续写线索：保持镇静——扔原木施救——呼叫援助——妈妈和邻居闻声赶来——救出吉米——被妈妈安慰——明白了在河里游泳的危险——感受到了邻居的善良 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①放弃：give up/abandon ②大叫：yell/shout ③拥抱：hug/embrace 情绪类 ①感到羞愧：feel ashamed/feel abashed ②冷静的：calm/dispassionate 【点睛】[高分句型1].
