Curious about China, but don’t know where to begin? Well, we’ve got you covered with this brand-new video series exploring Chinese culture. All you have to do is press play. ● Dazu Rock Carvings One of China’s UNESCO World Heritage sites is hidden among the mountains on the outskirts of the southwestern city of Chongqing. Here, tens of thousands of sculptures collectively make up the Dazu Rock Carvings — considered one of the finest examples of China’s cave art, exhibiting the most sophisticated craftsmanship of Dazu Rock Carvings. The delicate Dazu Rock Carvings tell ancient, mystical stories. ● Bamboo Carving The art of bamboo carving originated at the Qing imperial court. Today, the art lives on, appreciated for its historical value and elegance. Just 100 kilometers southwest of Beijing, in the Xiong’an New Area, a group of skilled artists are keeping this art alive. Carving bamboo requires focus, precision and elbow grease (重活). Watch the video and feast your eyes on the bamboo masterpieces. ● Peach-stone Carving In the small town of Siyang in Jiangsu Province in eastern China, craftsmen create art on the tiny cores of the peaches. While most people think nothing of peach stones and just throw them away, they are a source of inspiration for these artists. The artist goes to great length to find the perfect core to fit his concept. Using tiny tools, they chip away at the cores to create intricate designs，extremely detailed and delicate. These peach stone carvings are often worn as jewelry symbolizing fortune in China. 1. What do Dazu Rock Carvings feature? A. Mysterious tales. B. Mountain shapes. C. Design inspirations. D. Painting exhibitions. 2. What do the three types of art have in common? A. Materials. B. Origin. C. Craftsmanship. D. Symbols. 3. Why do people wear peach-stone carving? A. To show wealth. B. To bring good luck. C. To symbolize status. D. To appreciate design. B I live in Xizhou in Yunnan Province, on the historic Tea Horse Road. I have to admit that when I first heard that Paul Salopek was going to walk the entire globe on his own two feet, I was blown away. I couldn’t imagine that there could be such an unusual person in the world. Last May, I met Paul. He told me that it was his first time in China. He talked to me with great excitement about the history, migrations, and discoveries in my region of China. He spoke of the Shu Yandu Dao (the Southern Silk Road), the travels of the 17th-century Chinese explorer Xu Xiake, the Tea Horse Road and the early 20th-century American botanist Joseph Rock. He also talked of Xuanzang. Paul considered many of them heroes and in a sense Chinese pioneers of slow journalism (新闻业). I decided to accompany Paul on his walk toward Yunnan. On September 28,2021, we set out. Our days were simple: walk, eat, sleep, and repeat. We woke up at sunrise, set off in high spirits, and rested at sunset, dragging ourselves into exhausted sleep. We met many people on the road. Some were curious, surrounding us and watching us; some gave us directions; some invited us into their home to take a rest; some spoke of the charm of their hometown. We met many beautiful souls, simple souls and warm souls. We were walking with our minds. Looking back on the more than 200 miles I walked with Paul, I came to a realization. Walking for its own sake, while healthy and admirable, is only a small part of the benefit of moving with our feet. A deeper reward is rediscovering the world around us, shortening the distance between each other, and sharing each other’s cultures. 4. What did the writer think of Paul’s travel plan at first? A. Surprised. B. Frightened. C. Confused. D. Disappointed. 5. What can we learn about Paul from Paragraph 2? A. He was Joseph Rock’s friend. B. He was a western journalist. C. He came to China several times. D. He had a knowledge of China. 6. What does Paragraph 4 tell us about the writer and Paul? A. They set off in high spirits. B. They satisfied the locals’ curiosity. C. They built bonds with people. D. They honored the ancestors. 7. What is the main purpose of the writer’s writing the text? A. To share and reflect on a journey. B. To suggest a new way of travel. C. To stress the importance of friendship. D. To introduce Chinese culture. C On 15th June 1996 a huge bomb in Manchester, in the north-west of England, destroyed the city centre, causing nearly a billion pounds’ worth of damage. The bomb, which had been planted by a terrorist group called the IRA, injured over 200 people but remarkably killed no one as police had evacuated the area following a warning from the IRA. Manchester had already undergone some changes as it recovered from the economic depression of the early 1990s that had destroyed much of its industry and created large-scale unemployment. It had won the right to host the Commonwealth Games (a large sporting event) and redeveloped some deserted areas through the building of the National Velodrome, an exhibition centre and an award-winning concert hall. However, at the time of the bombing, the city centre was still badly neglected — dominated by the Arndale Shopping Centre (once described as looking like an enormous public toilet) and squares that were run-down and affected by drug addiction. So, dreadful though the bombing was, it actually provided an opportunity to start again that might not have happened otherwise. Within weeks of the explosion, the government had set up a public-private company to manage the recovery and launched an international competition to design the redevelopment. The winning plan involved restoring the historic buildings that had been damaged, tearing down and rebuilding some of the ugly buildings, creating new public spaces and improving life for pedestrians. Alongside this, the government reduced traffic in the centre by changing the direction of some main roads and developed an integrated public transport system, making access to the centre easier. Since these improvements, the city has attempted to boost tourism by using some of the city’s historical sites for major public events and by creating the Urbis building, which now houses the National Museum of Football. In turn, these changes have been key in attracting new investors, such as the Qatari royal family who own Manchester City Football Club. Since 1996, the Manchester economy has grown in all areas. However, there are some concerns that inequality has also increased. Nor are all the new spaces appreciated. One new garden square designed by an international architect was rated as the worst attraction in the city. Others argue that in changing market stalls and industry for luxury consumption and glass buildings, the city has lost some of its soul. 8. What does the word “evacuate” (paragraph 1)most probably mean? A. Looking for something in a place. B. Estimate the losses in a ruined place. C. Remove people from a place of danger. D. Determine a numerical value of a place. 9. What does the writer say about the 1996 IRA bombing? A. It presented an unexpected opportunity for Manchester. B. It destroyed the city centre that used to be busy and crowded. C. It resulted in a lot of people getting hurt or killed in Manchester. D. It cost Manchester its chance to host the Commonwealth Games. 10. What did Manchester do for its recovery? A. It set up Manchester City Football Club. B. It organised an international competition to attract new investors. C. It tore down some historical sites to make room for public events. D. It developed a public traffic system to make the city center more accessible. 11. What is the passage mainly about? A. Damage Manchester suffered due to the IRA bombing. B. The IRA bombing in Manchester and its consequences. C. Challenges related to the redevelopment of Manchester. D. The long-term effects of the changes made in Manchester. D Science is always seen as hard-core and hard to understand. But could you imagine hundreds of people being attracted by the cover of a science magazine? The achievement was completed after Wang Yixi and his team made the cover of an October issue of Structure, a US-based Cell Press journal. The cover shows a Chinese ink painting that vividly shows the process in which a special enzyme (酶) involved in the biosynthesis (生物合成) of an important organic compound is activated―the latest breakthrough by a Chinese scientific research team. Another one of his popular works that carries distinctive Chinese elements is a composite image, describing a scientist as the folk goddess Nyuwa, carrying her newly discovered compound to fill a crack in the sky. While studying chemistry at university, Wang Yixi often came across an experimental preparation process that he had to explain, but the amount of text was too large and abstract. As he had been interested in drawing, and related software like Photoshop, he decided to turn his graphics into a fine art. He went on to study 3D graphics software in order to better display the microscopic structures in his field and improve the presentation of his papers. It didn’t take long before his classmates and professors noticed his talents and asked him to help them with their papers. By word of mouth, more people beat a path to Wang’s door and were willing to pay for his service. Over the past four years, Wang and his team have come up with more than 10,000 visual works for academic papers across a variety of fields, many of which have made their way to the world’s top academic journals, including Nature, Science and Cell. “Every scientific paper is innovative, and graphics are an essential part of scientific papers,” Wang says, adding that what he tries to achieve is an explanation of models or methods, to showcase experimental results, visually process data or compare differences among experiments. 12. What play a special role in Wang’s works? A. Fairytales. B. Chinese elements. C. Rich colors. D. Complex structures. 13. What can we learn about Wang Yixi from paragraph 3? A. He preferred painting to Chemistry. B. He developed useful mapping software. C. He had an active mind to solve problem. D. He had trouble conducting his experiment. 14. How does Wang make abstract papers easily understood? A. By visualizing them vividly. B. By showing them accurately. C. By explaining them in detail. D. By constructing them uniquely 15. Which is the best title for the text? A. The power of art B. Dilemmas of science C. Mysteries of Chemistry D. Inspiration from science 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When I first arrived in China, I thought I’d prepared for cultural differences.

My Chinese roommate, Liu, looked at it with genuine surprise. ____16____ He nicely pushed a thermos (保温杯) of hot water towards me. “This is better for you,“ he said kindly. I was confused.

It was my ”Aha!” moment. ____20____It wasn’t just a preference; it was a deeply held belief in keeping internal harmony. Now, I still enjoy an occasional cold drink, but you’ll mostly find me with my own thermos. I’ve not only accepted the Warm Water Rule; I’ve become one of its devoted followers. A. My curiosity finally got the better of me. B. It was as if I had broken an unspoken law. C. I found the concept both strange and abnormal. D. It wasn’t just about temperature; it was about philosophy. E. He immediately filled his electric kettle and started boiling water. F. The library, the gym, even the cinema-everyone carried thermoses.

Many high school students often turned to her for guidance and as her neighbor, me included. One afternoon, feeling troubled and uncertain about my future after a disappointing exam,I decided to knock on Mrs. Thompson’s door. “I don’t know what I’m doing with my life,” I admitted, my eyes fixed on the floor.“It feels like everyone else has it all figured out, and I’m just stuck.“ My voice trembled with sadness and a hint of fear. I had bombed my last math test, and it felt like that failure stayed in every corner of my mind, increasing my anxiety about college examination and what I might want to pursue. While my friends seemed to advance effortlessly through their studies, I was struggling to stay afloat.The feeling that I was falling behind only deepened my sense of hopelessness. Mrs. Thompson listened carefully, her face a picture of calm and understanding. Without saying much， she handed me a small tomato seedling (苗) in a pot. The tiny plant，with its delicate green leaves, seemed to symbolize a slight sign of hope. ”Let’s plant this in the garden,“ she said gently. “Water it every day and make sure it gets enough sunlight. But for a whole week, don’t focus on its progress. Just trust that it’s growing.” Every day, I faithfully watered the little seedling, as if I was putting my own hopes into it.I carefully ensured it got the right amount of sunlight, positioning it just so under the sun’s rays.With great self-control, I resisted the urge to examine it too closely. As the days went by, I felt a mix of eagerness and impatience, like a child waiting for a long-promised gift,longing to see some sign that my efforts were making a difference. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph one: “Let’s go to check on the plant,” Mrs. Thompson said to me a week later. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph two: One day,as I bent down to water it, a tiny yellow flower caught my eye. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 海南中学2025-2026学年高三年级第三次月考 英语试题 (考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：150分) 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号等填写在答题卡和试卷指定位置上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 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.

I have to admit that when I first heard that Paul Salopek was going to walk the entire globe on his own two feet, I was blown away. I couldn’t imagine that there could be such an unusual person in the world. Last May, I met Paul. He told me that it was his first time in China. He talked to me with great excitement about the history, migrations, and discoveries in my region of China. He spoke of the Shu Yandu Dao (the Southern Silk Road), the travels of the 17th-century Chinese explorer Xu Xiake, the Tea Horse Road and the early 20th-century American botanist Joseph Rock. He also talked of Xuanzang. Paul considered many of them heroes and in a sense Chinese pioneers of slow journalism (新闻业). I decided to accompany Paul on his walk toward Yunnan. On September 28,2021, we set out. Our days were simple: walk, eat, sleep, and repeat. We woke up at sunrise, set off in high spirits, and rested at sunset, dragging ourselves into exhausted sleep. We met many people on the road. Some were curious, surrounding us and watching us; some gave us directions; some invited us into their home to take a rest; some spoke of the charm of their hometown. We met many beautiful souls, simple souls and warm souls. We were walking with our minds. Looking back on the more than 200 miles I walked with Paul, I came to a realization. Walking for its own sake, while healthy and admirable, is only a small part of the benefit of moving with our feet. A deeper reward is rediscovering the world around us, shortening the distance between each other, and sharing each other’s cultures. 4. What did the writer think of Paul’s travel plan at first? A. Surprised. B. Frightened. C. Confused. D. Disappointed. 5. What can we learn about Paul from Paragraph 2? A. He was Joseph Rock’s friend. B. He was a western journalist. C. He came to China several times. D. He had a knowledge of China. 6. What does Paragraph 4 tell us about the writer and Paul? A. They set off in high spirits. B. They satisfied the locals’ curiosity. C. They built bonds with people. D. They honored the ancestors. 7. What is the main purpose of the writer’s writing the text? A. To share and reflect on a journey. B. To suggest a new way of travel. C. To stress the importance of friendship. D. To introduce Chinese culture. 【答案】4. A 5. D 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者住在云南喜洲，这在历史悠久的茶马古道上，他遇到了要用双脚环游地球的保罗·萨洛佩科，于是决定陪保罗在云南徒步旅行，本文描写了他们一路上的见闻和感悟。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“I have to admit that when I first heard that Paul Salopek was going to walk the entire globe on his own two feet, I was blown away. I couldn’t imagine that there could be such an unusual person in the world.(我不得不承认，当我第一次听说保罗·萨洛佩克要用自己的两只脚走完整个地球时，我惊呆了。我无法想象世界上会有这样一个不寻常的人)”可知，作者最初对保罗的旅行计划感到吃惊。故选A。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“He talked to me with great excitement about the history, migrations, and discoveries in my region of China. He spoke of the Shu Yandu Dao (the Southern Silk Road), the travels of the 17th-century Chinese explorer Xu Xiake, the Tea Horse Road and the early 20th-century American botanist Joseph Rock. He also talked of Xuanzang. Paul considered many of them heroes and in a sense Chinese pioneers of slow journalism (新闻业).(他非常兴奋地和我谈论我所在地区的历史、移民和发现。他谈到了蜀衍渡道（南方丝绸之路）、17世纪中国探险家徐霞客的旅行、茶马古道和20世纪初美国植物学家约瑟夫·洛克。他还谈到了玄奘。保罗认为他们中的许多人是英雄，在某种意义上是中国慢新闻的先驱)”可推知，保罗·萨洛佩科对中国有一定的了解。故选D。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“We met many people on the road.

Walking for its own sake, while healthy and admirable, is only a small part of the benefit of moving with our feet. A deeper reward is rediscovering the world around us, shortening the distance between each other, and sharing each other’s cultures.(回顾和保罗一起走过的200多英里，我有了一个认识。步行本身虽然健康且令人钦佩，但这只是用脚运动的一小部分好处。更深层的回报是重新发现我们周围的世界，缩短彼此之间的距离，分享彼此的文化)”结合本文主要讲述了作者住在云南喜洲，这里在历史悠久的茶马古道上，他遇到了要用双脚环游地球的保罗·萨洛佩科，于是决定陪保罗去云南，文章描述了他们路上的见闻和感悟。可知，文章的目的是分享和回顾一段旅程。故选A。 C On 15th June 1996, a huge bomb in Manchester, in the north-west of England, destroyed the city centre, causing nearly a billion pounds’ worth of damage. The bomb, which had been planted by a terrorist group called the IRA, injured over 200 people but remarkably killed no one as police had evacuated the area following a warning from the IRA. Manchester had already undergone some changes as it recovered from the economic depression of the early 1990s that had destroyed much of its industry and created large-scale unemployment. It had won the right to host the Commonwealth Games (a large sporting event) and redeveloped some deserted areas through the building of the National Velodrome, an exhibition centre and an award-winning concert hall. However, at the time of the bombing, the city centre was still badly neglected — dominated by the Arndale Shopping Centre (once described as looking like an enormous public toilet) and squares that were run-down and affected by drug addiction. So, dreadful though the bombing was, it actually provided an opportunity to start again that might not have happened otherwise. Within weeks of the explosion, the government had set up a public-private company to manage the recovery and launched an international competition to design the redevelopment. The winning plan involved restoring the historic buildings that had been damaged, tearing down and rebuilding some of the ugly buildings, creating new public spaces and improving life for pedestrians. Alongside this, the government reduced traffic in the centre by changing the direction of some main roads and developed an integrated public transport system, making access to the centre easier. Since these improvements, the city has attempted to boost tourism by using some of the city’s historical sites for major public events and by creating the Urbis building, which now houses the National Museum of Football. In turn, these changes have been key in attracting new investors, such as the Qatari royal family who own Manchester City Football Club. Since 1996, the Manchester economy has grown in all areas. However, there are some concerns that inequality has also increased. Nor are all the new spaces appreciated. One new garden square designed by an international architect was rated as the worst attraction in the city. Others argue that in changing market stalls and industry for luxury consumption and glass buildings, the city has lost some of its soul. 8. What does the word “evacuate” (paragraph 1)most probably mean? A. Looking for something in a place. B. Estimate the losses in a ruined place. C. Remove people from a place of danger. D. Determine a numerical value of a place. 9. What does the writer say about the 1996 IRA bombing? A. It presented an unexpected opportunity for Manchester. B. It destroyed the city centre that used to be busy and crowded. C. It resulted in a lot of people getting hurt or killed in Manchester. D. It cost Manchester its chance to host the Commonwealth Games. 10. What did Manchester do for its recovery? A. It set up Manchester City Football Club. B. It organised an international competition to attract new investors. C. It tore down some historical sites to make room for public events. D. It developed a public traffic system to make the city center more accessible. 11. What is the passage mainly about? A. Damage Manchester suffered due to the IRA bombing. B. The IRA bombing in Manchester and its consequences. C. Challenges related to the redevelopment of Manchester. D. The long-term effects of the changes made in Manchester. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了1996年爱尔兰共和军恐怖组织在曼彻斯特投下了一枚炸弹，这次事件实际上给曼彻斯特提供了一个重新发展的机会。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段中“The bomb, which had been planted by a terrorist group called the IRA, injured over 200 people but remarkably killed no one as police had evacuated the area following a warning from the IRA.(这枚炸弹是由一个名为“爱尔兰共和军”的恐怖组织安放的，造成200多人受伤，但引人注目的是没有造成人员死亡，因为警方在爱尔兰共和军发出警告后已经evacuated该地区)”可知，这没炸弹没有造成人员死亡，这是因为警方在爱尔兰共和军发出警告后将该地区的人员进行了疏散。由此推知，单词evacuate意为“疏散”，与C项“把人们从危险的地方带走”意思接近。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“So, dreadful though the bombing was, it actually provided an opportunity to start again that might not have happened otherwise.(因此，尽管爆炸很可怕，但它实际上提供了一个重新开始的机会，否则可能不会发生这种情况)”可知，1996年爱尔兰共和军爆炸案给曼彻斯特带来了一个意想不到的机会。故选A。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Alongside this, the government reduced traffic in the centre by changing the direction of some main roads and developed an integrated public transport system, making access to the centre easier.(与此同时，政府通过改变一些主要道路的方向，减少了市中心的交通量，并开发了一个综合公共交通系统，使前往市中心更加容易)”可知，曼彻斯特为了它的复苏，发展了一个公共交通系统，使城市中心更容易到达。故选D。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，由其是第一段“On 15th June 1996, a huge bomb in Manchester, in the north-west of England, destroyed the city centre, causing nearly a billion pounds’ worth of damage. The bomb, which had been planted by a terrorist group called the IRA, injured over 200 people but remarkably killed no one as police had evacuated the area following a warning from the IRA.(1996年6月15日，在英格兰西北部的曼彻斯特，一颗巨大的炸弹摧毁了市中心，造成了近10亿英镑的损失。这枚炸弹是由一个名为“爱尔兰共和军”的恐怖组织安放的，造成200多人受伤，但引人注目的是没有造成人员死亡，因为警方在爱尔兰共和军发出警告后已经疏散了该地区)”和第二段中“So, dreadful though the bombing was, it actually provided an opportunity to start again that might not have happened otherwise.(因此，尽管爆炸很可怕，但它实际上提供了一个重新开始的机会，否则可能不会发生这种情况)”可知，文章主要介绍了1996年爱尔兰共和军恐怖组织在曼彻斯特投下了一枚炸弹，这次事件实际上给曼彻斯特提供了一个重新发展的机会。由此可知，文章主要介绍了爱尔兰共和军在曼彻斯特的爆炸及其产生的影响。故选B。 D Science is always seen as hard-core and hard to understand. But could you imagine hundreds of people being attracted by the cover of a science magazine? The achievement was completed after Wang Yixi and his team made the cover of an October issue of Structure, a US-based Cell Press journal. The cover shows a Chinese ink painting that vividly shows the process in which a special enzyme (酶) involved in the biosynthesis (生物合成) of an important organic compound is activated―the latest breakthrough by a Chinese scientific research team. Another one of his popular works that carries distinctive Chinese elements is a composite image, describing a scientist as the folk goddess Nyuwa, carrying her newly discovered compound to fill a crack in the sky. While studying chemistry at university Wang Yixi often came across an experimental preparation process that he had to explain, but the amount of text was too large and abstract. As he had been interested in drawing, and related software like Photoshop, he decided to turn his graphics into a fine art. He went on to study 3D graphics software in order to better display the microscopic structures in his field and improve the presentation of his papers. It didn’t take long before his classmates and professors noticed his talents and asked him to help them with their papers. By word of mouth, more people beat a path to Wang’s door and were willing to pay for his service. Over the past four years, Wang and his team have come up with more than 10,000 visual works for academic papers across a variety of fields, many of which have made their way to the world’s top academic journals, including Nature, Science and Cell. “Every scientific paper is innovative, and graphics are an essential part of scientific papers,” Wang says, adding that what he tries to achieve is an explanation of models or methods, to showcase experimental results, visually process data or compare differences among experiments. 12. What play a special role in Wang’s works? A. Fairytales. B. Chinese elements. C. Rich colors. D. Complex structures. 13. What can we learn about Wang Yixi from paragraph 3? A. He preferred painting to Chemistry. B. He developed useful mapping software. C. He had an active mind to solve problem. D. He had trouble conducting his experiment. 14. How does Wang make abstract papers easily understood? A. By visualizing them vividly. B. By showing them accurately. C. By explaining them in detail. D. By constructing them uniquely 15. Which is the best title for the text? A. The power of art B. Dilemmas of science C. Mysteries of Chemistry D. Inspiration from science 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了Wang Yixi通过使用中国元素生动地展现了科学过程，解释了他的灵感来源以及贡献。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The cover shows a Chinese ink painting that vividly shows the process in which a special enzyme (酶) involved in the biosynthesis (生物合成) of an important organic compound is activated―the latest breakthrough by a Chinese scientific research team.(封面是一幅中国水墨画，生动地展示了一种重要有机化合物的生物合成过程中一种特殊的酶被激活的过程——这是中国科研团队的最新突)”可知，中国元素在王的作品中扮演了特殊的角色。故选B。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“While studying chemistry at university, Wang Yixi often came across an experimental preparation process that he had to explain, but the amount of text was too large and abstract.

I’m writing to discuss with you an interesting trend in ancient buildings. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours sincerely, Li Hua 【答案】范文1 Dear Chris, How are things going? I’m writing to discuss with you an interesting trend in ancient buildings. Many historical Chinese buildings are being thoughtfully turned into stylish cafes, and they quickly become popular internet-famous spots for social media photos. I find this a meaningful form of preservation. Rather than leaving old structures empty, this gives them renewed purpose and funds their upkeep. A well-designed cafe can respect the original architecture — using traditional materials and layouts while gently introducing modern comfort. It becomes a living space where traditional heritage and modern lifestyle quietly converse, allowing history to remain part of our daily lives. What’s your opinion on this? Glad to hear what you think. Yours sincerely, Li Hua 应用文范文2 Dear Chris, How are things going? I’m writing to discuss with you an interesting trend in ancient buildings. Many old Chinese buildings had been turned into cafes just for commercial popularity and became internet-famous spots. To be honest, I fear that without careful balance, we risk losing the intangible heritage these spaces carry. Many cafes turning quiet courtyards into bustling commercial spots with modern decor, and the real historical atmosphere gets lost. The shifts from experiencing history to consuming coffee may disrupt the space’s cultural coherence. It starts to feel less like a cultural site and more like just a photo spot. I believe true preservation should maintain a building’s story and context, not just its exterior.

Many high school students often turned to her for guidance and as her neighbor, me included. One afternoon, feeling troubled and uncertain about my future after a disappointing exam,I decided to knock on Mrs. Thompson’s door. “I don’t know what I’m doing with my life,” I admitted, my eyes fixed on the floor.“It feels like everyone else has it all figured out, and I’m just stuck.“ My voice trembled with sadness and a hint of fear. I had bombed my last math test and it felt like that failure stayed in every corner of my mind, increasing my anxiety about college examination and what I might want to pursue. While my friends seemed to advance effortlessly through their studies, I was struggling to stay afloat.The feeling that I was falling behind only deepened my sense of hopelessness. Mrs. Thompson listened carefully, her face a picture of calm and understanding. Without saying much， she handed me a small tomato seedling (苗) in a pot. The tiny plant，with its delicate green leaves, seemed to symbolize a slight sign of hope. ”Let’s plant this in the garden,“ she said gently. “Water it every day and make sure it gets enough sunlight. But for a whole week, don’t focus on its progress. Just trust that it’s growing.” Every day, I faithfully watered the little seedling, as if I was putting my own hopes into it.I carefully ensured it got the right amount of sunlight, positioning it just so under the sun’s rays.With great self-control, I resisted the urge to examine it too closely. As the days went by, I felt a mix of eagerness and impatience, like a child waiting for a long-promised gift,longing to see some sign that my efforts were making a difference. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph one: “Let’s go to check on the plant,” Mrs. Thompson said to me a week later. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph two: One day,as I bent down to water it, a tiny yellow flower caught my eye. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】“Let’s go to check on the plant,” Mrs. Thompson said to me a week later. With a heart full of anticipation, I followed her to the garden. When we reached the spot where we’d planted the seedling, I was amazed. The once - tiny plant had grown significantly. Its leaves were greener and more robust, and it stood taller, reaching towards the sky. Mrs. Thompson looked at me and smiled, “You see, just like this seedling, growth doesn’t always happen at a speed we can immediately notice. Your efforts in studying are like the care you gave this plant. They’re working, even if you can’t see the results right away.” One day, as I bent down to water it, a tiny yellow flower caught my eye. A sense of joy and accomplishment washed over me. That little flower was a symbol of hope and proof that my care had paid off. It made me realize that just as the seedling needed time and consistent care to bloom, so did I in my studies. I no longer felt as lost or hopeless. From then on, I faced my study challenges with newfound confidence, knowing that with perseverance, my efforts would surely lead to beautiful “blooms” in my future. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者在考试失利后向Thompson夫人求助的经历。Thompson夫人让作者种植番茄幼苗让作者明白成长和努力的成果不会立即显现，就如同照顾幼苗一样，学习上的努力也会在未来开花结果。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容““我们去看看那株植物吧。”一周后，Thompson夫人对我说。”以及第二段首句内容“有一天，当我弯腰给它浇水时，一朵小小的黄色花朵引起了我的注意。”可知，第一段可描写作者发现西红柿苗长势喜人，Thompson夫人告诉作者努力终会有回报。 ②由第二段首句内容“有一天，当我弯腰给它浇水时，一朵小小的黄色花朵引起了我的注意。”可知，第二段可描写作者深有感触，明白了学习需要坚持，才会有好的结果。 2.续写线索：Thompson夫人建议作者一起看看番茄苗——作者看到番茄苗的时候惊呆了，小小的植物已经变大了，更茁壮了——Thompson夫人告诉作者，成长总是在不经意间发生，只要有努力，就会有回报——有一天，作者给番茄苗浇水时，突然发现了一朵小黄花——作者心中涌起一种喜悦和成就感——作者意识到，就像番茄苗需要时间和持续的照料才能开花一样，自己学习上也需要这样——作者不再迷茫和绝望，因为作者相信，只要坚持，终有回报 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①充满：(be) full of/ (be) filled with ②注意到：notice/ spot ③带来、导致：lead to/ contribute to 情绪类 ①惊讶的：amazed/ surprised ②成就感：a sense of accomplishment/ a sense of achievement 【点睛】【高分句型1】When we reached the spot where we’d planted the seedling, I was amazed.（运用了when引导的时间状语从句和where引导的定语从句） 【高分句型2】Your efforts in studying are like the care you gave this plant.（运用了省略关系代词的定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
