B A few weeks ago, I called an Uber to take me to the Boston airport for a flight home for the holidays. As I slid into the back seat of the car, the warm intonations (语调) of the driver’s accent washed over me in a familiar way. I learned that he was a recent West African immigrant with a few young children, working hard to provide for his family. I could relate: I am the daughter of two Ethiopian immigrants who made their share of sacrifices to ensure my success. I told him I was on a college break and headed home to visit my parents. That’s how he found out I go to Harvard. An approving eye glinted at me in the rearview window (后视镜), and quickly, we crossed the boundaries of rider and driver. I became his daughter, all grown up — the product of his sacrifice. And then came the fateful question: “What do you study?” I answered “history and literature” and the pride in his voice faded, as I knew it might. I didn’t even get to add “and African-American studies” before he cut in, his voice thick with disappointment, “All that work to get into Harvard, and you study history?” Here I was, his daughter, squandering the biggest opportunity of her life. He went on to deliver the age-old lecture that all immigrant kids know. We are to become doctors (or lawyers, if our parents are being generous) — to make money and send money back home. The unspoken demand, made across generations which my Uber driver laid out plainly, is simple: Fulfill your role in the narrative of upward mobility so your children can do the same. I used to feel anxious and backed into a corner by the questioning, but now as a junior in college, I’m grateful for their support more than anything. This holiday season, I’ve promised myself I won’t huff and get annoyed at their inquiries. I won’t defensively respond with “but I plan to go to law school” when I get unrequested advice. I’ll just smile and nod, and enjoy the warmth of the occasion. 4. What disappointed the driver? A. The sacrifice of the author’s parents. B. The author’s choice of major at college. C. The author’s casual attitude towards study. D. The author’s poor academic performance at Harvard. 5. Which word can replace the underlined word “squandering” in Paragraph 4? A. Wasting. B. Replacing. C. Valuing. D. Expecting. 6. Why are immigrant kids expected to become doctors or lawyers according to the passage? A. To gain higher social respect and recognition. B. To fulfill the unachieved dreams of their parents. C. To secure financial success and family advancement. D. To gain easier access to top universities like Harvard. 7. What is the author’s attitude towards the driver’s questioning? A. Critical. B. Tolerant. C. Doubtful. D. Supportive. C My son just completed high school, and his departure for college marks a significant change for me. Among the things I’ll miss most are his lessons in teenage slang (俚语), which has offered me an accidental and useful portrait of how he and his generation see the world． The primary value of slang has been to create linguistic markers, a way to set you apart from other people. The terms change over time, but the meanings typically don’t — one generation’s “cool” becomes another’s “dope.” Members of my son’s generation have a vastly superior approach to slang. They have invented a language that responds to the new and distinct reality they face, a society characterized by collapsing institutions, erosions (削弱) in trust and a loss of faith in a shared sense of meaning． “Mid,” for example, in my son’s usage, describes things that are average or slightly below. You can’t really complain about them, but they produce no joy. Everything in Starbucks and airports falls into the category of “mid.” “Glazed” has a similarly impressive precision, indicating the act of positively spinning a judgment on reality rather than complete lying. It is the perfect description of the way social media works, with everything taking on an artificially positive, unreal and not entirely trustworthy look. For example, beach photos on social media might make a destination look like paradise, yet they rarely show the crowded shores or bad weather that are part of the reality． My favorite slang word is “based,” often used to express agreement when someone states a controversial opinion. “Canada should join the United States,” one might say, to which someone else might reply, “Based.” To my ear, “based” is a perfect word to describe the informational chaos we inhabit． Slang has brought my son and me closer. It’s taught me that the current crop of teenagers created a language to describe the flawed reality we’ve abandoned them to, and in doing so they’ve proved themselves less misguided and more innovative than we were． 8. What does teenage slang reveal about young people? A. Their need to fit in with peers. B. Their desire to outdo older generations. C. Their aim to challenge social norms. D. Their response to the problematic reality. 9. Which comment on a crowded park reflects the underlined word “glazed”? A. “What a disaster!” B. “Not crowded at all.” C. “A wonderful getaway!” D. “At least we found a spot.” 10. What is the author’s attitude toward teenage slang?​ A. Objective. B. Critical. C. Appreciative. D. Doubtful. 11. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Teenagers’ Fondness of Nonsense Words B. Modern Slang Tells Us about Youth Culture C. The Impact of Teen Slang on Social Relations D. Teens Have Invented a Language for the World D A wheeled robot rolls across the floor. A soft-bodied robotic star bends its five legs, moving awkwardly. Powered by conventional electricity via plug or battery, these simple robotic creations would be unremarkable, but what sets these two robots apart is that they are controlled by a living entity (实体): a king oyster mushroom. By growing the mushroom’s mycelium (菌丝体) into the robot’s hardware, a team led by Cornell University researchers has engineered two types of robots that sense and respond to the environment by using electrical signals made by the mushroom and its sensitivity to light. The robots are the latest accomplishment of scientists in a field known as biohybrid robotics who seek to combine biological, living materials such as plant and animal cells or insects with artificial components to make partly living and partly engineered entities. There’s still a long way to go before biohybrid robots go beyond the lab, but researchers hope one day robot jellyfish may explore oceans, sperm-powered robots may be able to deliver fertility (生育) treatments and cyborg cockroaches could search for survivors in the wake of an earthquake. “Biohybridization is an attempt to find components in the biological world that we can use, understand, and control to help our artificial systems work better,” said Shepherd, a professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering at Cornell University.  The team began by growing king oyster mushrooms in the lab from a simple kit ordered online. The researchers chose this species of mushroom because it grows easily and quickly. They cultivated the mushroom’s mycelium, which can form networks that, according to the study, can sense, communicate and transport nutrients. The team found it challenging to engineer a system that could detect and use the small electrical signals from the mycelia to command the robot. “You have to make sure that your electrode (电极) touches in the right position because the mycelia are very thin,” said lead author Anand Mishra. “Then you culture them, and when the mycelia start growing, they wrap around the electrode.” 12. What is special about the two robots in the first paragraph? A. They can control living creatures. B. They can make various movements. C. They are powered by king oyster mushrooms. D. They are partly mushroom and partly machine. 13. What does the author want to show by giving the examples in paragraph 4? A. The future possibilities of biohybrid robots. B. The seriousness of the environmental issues. C. The limitations of biohybrid robots beyond the lab. D. The advantages of biohybrid robots over conventional ones. 14. What did the team find difficult when engineering the robots? A. Wrapping the electrode with the mycelia. B. Arranging the electrode in the right order. C. Developing a system to cultivate the mycelia. D. Placing the electrode accurately on the mycelia. 15. Why do researchers develop biohybrid robots? A. To replace artificial systems entirely. B. To create fully self-replicating organisms. C. To reduce environmental impacts of robots. D. To integrate biological advantages into machines. 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。 Experiencing bad dreams every night can be horrifying for anybody.

Slowing down, I opened the window and called out, “Need a ride?” I helped her into the passenger seat, and we were off. She directed me to go farther south. Suddenly, I realized we were on the “wrong side of town.” It was starting to get dark, and I began to feel uneasy. We continued down unfamiliar streets until she finally pointed to an old apartment building. The street was dirty and the air was smelly. Several young men gathered around the entrance. They appeared threatening. Some were on motorcycles, and one boy with bushy, long hair was staring at me intently (目不转睛地) — too intently — and smiling. I was getting more and more uncomfortable. I stopped the car. A couple of the guys helped with the groceries. The old lady thanked me and I drove away as fast as I could. I was driving when I was interrupted by a motorcycle behind me. It was that boy who kept smiling at me with a strange look! In a panic, I slowed down, hoping he would pass me. But he continued to drive at the same speed as me. I realized he was waving for me to stop. No way was I going to stop for a stranger on an unfamiliar street. I tried to speed away, but it didn’t stop him. He raced after me again. Getting increasingly anxious, I reached down in the passenger seat to get my cell phone. I had to call 911. With my eyes on the road, one hand on the wheel and the other hand searching on the seat next to me, I found a phone. But it wasn’t mine. “Oh no, the lady took my phone by mistake!” Meanwhile, the guy on the bike stayed close to me. 注意：(1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 I saw the boy waving something. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I felt guilty and wanted to reward the boy. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 华南师大附中2026届高三年级综合测试（二） 英 语 本试卷分选择题和非选择题两部分，共8页，满分120分，考试用时120分钟。 注意事项： 1. 开考前，考生务必用黑色字迹的钢笔或签字笔将自己的校名、姓名、班级、考号等相关信息填写在答题卡指定区域内。 2. 选择题每小题选出答案后， 用 2B 铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑；如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后， 再选涂其它答案；不能答在试卷上。 3. 非选择题必须用黑色字迹的钢笔或签字笔作答， 答案必须写在答题卡各题目指定区域内相应位置上；如需改动，先划掉原来的答案，然后再写上新的答案；不准使用铅笔和涂改液。不按以上要求作答的答案无效。 4. 考生必须保持答题卡的整洁。 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节 （共15小题，每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Four 2025 Writing Competitions Aurora Prize This is a contest for outstanding poetry and short fiction.

I didn’t even get to add “and African-American studies” before he cut in, his voice thick with disappointment, “All that work to get into Harvard, and you study history?”(然后出现了那个决定性的问题：“你学的什么？”我回答说“历史和文学”，我听得出他声音中的自豪感消失了，正如我所预料的那样。我甚至还没来得及补充“还有非裔美国人研究”，他就打断了我，声音里充满了失望：“为了进哈佛费那么大劲，你居然学历史？”)”可知，令这位司机感到失望的是作者学习的专业。故选B项。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第三段中“his voice thick with disappointment, “All that work to get into Harvard, and you study history?(他的声音里充满了失望：“为了进哈佛费那么大劲，你居然学历史？”)”以及划线词所在句下文“He went on to deliver the age-old lecture that all immigrant kids know. We are to become doctors (or lawyers, if our parents are being generous) — to make money and send money back home.(随后，他继续讲着所有移民家庭孩子都耳熟能详的“老生常谈”：我们这些移民后代，就该去当医生（要是父母放宽要求，当个律师也行）——赚钱养家，还要往老家寄钱)”可知，司机认为移民后代应该学医、学法律等，而作者努力考上哈佛大学却选择学历史是在浪费这个机会，由此可知，划线单词所在句“Here I was, his daughter, squandering the biggest opportunity of her life.(在他看来，我这个 “女儿”，简直是在squandering人生中这难得的机遇。)”中的划线单词squandering应是“浪费”含义。故选A项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段中“He went on to deliver the age-old lecture that all immigrant kids know. We are to become doctors (or lawyers, if our parents are being generous) — to make money and send money back home. The unspoken demand, made across generations which my Uber driver laid out plainly, is simple: Fulfill your role in the narrative of upward mobility so your children can do the same.(他继续讲着所有移民孩子都知道的老生常谈。我们要成为医生（或者律师，如果我们的父母够慷慨的话）——赚钱并寄钱回家。我的优步（Uber）司机清楚地阐述了几代人的潜要求，很简单：在向上流动的故事中发挥你的作用，这样你的孩子也能这样做。)”可知，移民父母希望孩子成为医生或律师，目的是赚钱、寄钱回家，并且完成阶层向上流动的使命，让下一代也能如此。由此可知，移民孩子被期望成为医生或律师是为了从事高收入职业来获得经济上的成功，推动家族发展。故选C项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“I used to feel anxious and backed into a corner by the questioning, but now as a junior in college, I’m grateful for their support more than anything. This holiday season, I’ve promised myself I won’t huff and get annoyed at their inquiries. I won’t defensively respond with “but I plan to go to law school” when I get unrequested advice. I’ll just smile and nod, and enjoy the warmth of the occasion.(以前，每次被问到这类问题，我都会满心焦虑，仿佛被逼到了墙角；但如今，作为一名大三学生，我心里更多的是对他们这份期许的感激。这个假期，我暗自下定决心：再听到这样的询问，我不会再烦躁地抱怨，也不会急着辩解 “我以后打算读法学院” 来回应这些主动送上的建议。我会笑着点点头，好好享受当下这份温情。)”可知，作者以前面对这类提问会感到焦虑，但现在作为大三学生，更多的是感激他们的支持，还决心不会再对这些询问感到烦躁，只会微笑点头。这体现出作者对司机的质疑持包容、体谅的态度。故选B项。 C My son just completed high school, and his departure for college marks a significant change for me. Among the things I’ll miss most are his lessons in teenage slang (俚语), which has offered me an accidental and useful portrait of how he and his generation see the world． The primary value of slang has been to create linguistic markers, a way to set you apart from other people. The terms change over time, but the meanings typically don’t — one generation’s “cool” becomes another’s “dope.” Members of my son’s generation have a vastly superior approach to slang. They have invented a language that responds to the new and distinct reality they face, a society characterized by collapsing institutions, erosions (削弱) in trust and a loss of faith in a shared sense of meaning． “Mid,” for example, in my son’s usage, describes things that are average or slightly below. You can’t really complain about them, but they produce no joy. Everything in Starbucks and airports falls into the category of “mid.” “Glazed” has a similarly impressive precision, indicating the act of positively spinning a judgment on reality rather than complete lying. It is the perfect description of the way social media works, with everything taking on an artificially positive, unreal and not entirely trustworthy look. For example, beach photos on social media might make a destination look like paradise, yet they rarely show the crowded shores or bad weather that are part of the reality． My favorite slang word is “based,” often used to express agreement when someone states a controversial opinion. “Canada should join the United States,” one might say, to which someone else might reply, “Based.” To my ear, “based” is a perfect word to describe the informational chaos we inhabit． Slang has brought my son and me closer. It’s taught me that the current crop of teenagers created a language to describe the flawed reality we’ve abandoned them to, and in doing so they’ve proved themselves less misguided and more innovative than we were． 8. What does teenage slang reveal about young people? A. Their need to fit in with peers. B. Their desire to outdo older generations. C. Their aim to challenge social norms. D. Their response to the problematic reality. 9. Which comment on a crowded park reflects the underlined word “glazed”? A. “What a disaster!” B. “Not crowded at all.” C. “A wonderful getaway!” D. “At least we found a spot.” 10. What is the author’s attitude toward teenage slang?​ A. Objective. B. Critical. C. Appreciative. D. Doubtful. 11. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Teenagers’ Fondness of Nonsense Words B. Modern Slang Tells Us about Youth Culture C. The Impact of Teen Slang on Social Relations D. Teens Have Invented a Language for the World 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章讲述作者儿子高中毕业即将上大学，其使用的青少年俚语让作者看到这代人对世界的看法，这些俚语反映当下问题，拉近了作者和儿子的距离，展现了年轻人的创新。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Members of my son’s generation have a vastly superior approach to slang. They have invented a language that responds to the new and distinct reality they face, a society characterized by collapsing institutions, erosions (削弱) in trust and a loss of faith in a shared sense of meaning.(我儿子这一代的成员对俚语的处理方式要优越得多。他们发明了一种语言来回应他们所面临的新的和独特的现实，一个以机构崩溃、信任削弱和对共同意义失去信心为特征的社会。)”可知，青少年俚语揭示了年轻人对有问题的现实的反应。故选D项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“‘Glazed’ has a similarly impressive precision, indicating the act of positively spinning a judgment on reality rather than complete lying. It is the perfect description of the way social media works, with everything taking on an artificially positive, unreal and not entirely trustworthy look. For example, beach photos on social media might make a destination look like paradise, yet they rarely show the crowded shores or bad weather that are part of the reality.(“Glazed”也有同样令人印象深刻的精确性，它表示对现实进行积极粉饰，而不是彻头彻尾地撒谎。这是对社交媒体工作方式的完美描述，一切都呈现出一种人为的积极、不真实和不完全可信的样子。例如，社交媒体上的海滩照片可能会让一个目的地看起来像天堂，但它们很少展示作为现实一部分的拥挤的海岸或恶劣的天气。)”可知，对一个拥挤的公园的评论“一次美妙的度假！”反映了“glazed”这个词的含义，即对现实做出积极判断的行为，而不是完全说谎。故选C项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Slang has brought my son and me closer. It’s taught me that the current crop of teenagers created a language to describe the flawed reality we’ve abandoned them to, and in doing so they’ve proved themselves less misguided and more innovative than we were.(俚语让我和儿子更亲近了。它让我明白，现在的这一代青少年创造了一种语言来描述我们抛弃给他们的有缺陷的现实，他们这样做证明了他们比我们更少被误导，更有创新精神。)”可知，作者对青少年俚语的态度是欣赏的。故选C项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“My son just completed high school, and his departure for college marks a significant change for me. Among the things I’ll miss most are his lessons in teenage slang (俚语), which has offered me an accidental and useful portrait of how he and his generation see the world.(我儿子刚高中毕业，他上大学对我来说是一个重大的变化。我最怀念的是他给我上的青少年俚语课，这让我意外而有用地了解了他和他这一代人如何看待这个世界。)”以及最后一段“Slang has brought my son and me closer. It’s taught me that the current crop of teenagers created a language to describe the flawed reality we’ve abandoned them to, and in doing so they’ve proved themselves less misguided and more innovative than we were.(俚语让我和儿子更亲近了。它让我明白，现在的这一代青少年创造了一种语言来描述我们抛弃给他们的有缺陷的现实，他们这样做证明了他们比我们更少被误导，更有创新精神。)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要讲述了青少年创造了一种语言来描述他们所面临的现实，作者认为这证明了他们比上一代人更少被误导，更有创新精神，因此D项“Teens Have Invented a Language for the World(青少年为世界发明了一种语言)”是本文的最佳标题。故选D项。 D A wheeled robot rolls across the floor. A soft-bodied robotic star bends its five legs, moving awkwardly. Powered by conventional electricity via plug or battery, these simple robotic creations would be unremarkable, but what sets these two robots apart is that they are controlled by a living entity (实体): a king oyster mushroom. By growing the mushroom’s mycelium (菌丝体) into the robot’s hardware, a team led by Cornell University researchers has engineered two types of robots that sense and respond to the environment by using electrical signals made by the mushroom and its sensitivity to light. The robots are the latest accomplishment of scientists in a field known as biohybrid robotics who seek to combine biological living materials such as plant and animal cells or insects with artificial components to make partly living and partly engineered entities. There’s still a long way to go before biohybrid robots go beyond the lab, but researchers hope one day robot jellyfish may explore oceans, sperm-powered robots may be able to deliver fertility (生育) treatments and cyborg cockroaches could search for survivors in the wake of an earthquake. “Biohybridization is an attempt to find components in the biological world that we can use, understand, and control to help our artificial systems work better,” said Shepherd, a professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering at Cornell University.  The team began by growing king oyster mushrooms in the lab from a simple kit ordered online. The researchers chose this species of mushroom because it grows easily and quickly. They cultivated the mushroom’s mycelium, which can form networks that, according to the study, can sense, communicate and transport nutrients. The team found it challenging to engineer a system that could detect and use the small electrical signals from the mycelia to command the robot. “You have to make sure that your electrode (电极) touches in the right position because the mycelia are very thin” said lead author Anand Mishra. “Then you culture them, and when the mycelia start growing, they wrap around the electrode.” 12. What is special about the two robots in the first paragraph? A. They can control living creatures. B. They can make various movements. C. They are powered by king oyster mushrooms. D. They are partly mushroom and partly machine. 13. What does the author want to show by giving the examples in paragraph 4? A. The future possibilities of biohybrid robots. B. The seriousness of the environmental issues. C. The limitations of biohybrid robots beyond the lab. D. The advantages of biohybrid robots over conventional ones. 14. What did the team find difficult when engineering the robots? A. Wrapping the electrode with the mycelia. B. Arranging the electrode in the right order. C. Developing a system to cultivate the mycelia. D. Placing the electrode accurately on the mycelia. 15. Why do researchers develop biohybrid robots? A. To replace artificial systems entirely. B. To create fully self-replicating organisms. C. To reduce environmental impacts of robots. D. To integrate biological advantages into machines. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. D 15.

To address 43. significantly 44. more likely 45. warmth 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。研究表明对甜食的偏好与更友善的性格有关，文章基于概念隐喻理论对此进行解释，并通过研究调查不同文化背景的人，验证了甜味偏好与随和性之间的关联。 【36题详解】 考查介词。句意：研究表明，对甜食的偏好与更友善、更随和的性格有关。结合句意表示“与……有关”短语为be associated with。故填with。 【37题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：在一些文化中，这种联系可以在用来描述善良或我们爱的人的语言中看到，比如“sweet”、“sweetie”或“honey”。句中can be seen为句中谓语，设空处使用非谓语动词，use与逻辑主语language构成被动关系，故用过去分词作后置定语。故填used。 【38题详解】 考查动词语态。句意：这些联系可以根据概念隐喻理论来解释，其核心是将抽象概念与更具体的领域进行比较，以帮助理解。主语与谓语构成被动关系，且can后跟动词原形。故填be explained。 39题详解】 考查代词。句意：同上。设空处使用代词作宾语，此处指代上文提到的conceptual metaphor theory，应用代词it。故填it。 【40题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：在隐喻映射理论中，隐喻映射是一种认知联想，通常是通过经验或具象化过程习得的，这最终使人们能够用更容易感知的术语来思考或表示抽象概念，比如味道。此处为非限制性定语从句修饰先行词cognitive association，先行词在从句中作主语，指物，故用关系代词which引导。故填which。 【41题详解】 考查介词。句意：我参与撰写一篇新期刊文章本周发表，旨在研究甜味偏好与随和性之间的关联是否存在于不同文化中。结合句意表示“参与撰写”短语为be a co-author of，此处构成介词+关系代词的结构，引导非限制性定语从句。故填of。 【42题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：为了解决这个问题，研究调查了1650名不同文化背景的参与者。句中surveyed为谓语动词，设空处使用非谓语动词，此处表示“为了去解决问题”故使用不定式作目的状语。句首单词首字母要大写。故填To address。 【43题详解】 考查副词。句意：研究发现，在所有样本中，随和性与两种不同的甜味偏好测量方法显著正相关。设空处使用副词与后文positively构成并列作状语修饰connected。故填significantly。 【44题详解】 考查形容词比较级。句意：与不喜欢甜食的人相比，喜欢甜食的人更有可能“同情他人的感受”、“为他人抽出时间”、“心肠软”等等。根据后文“sympathize with others’ feelings”, “take time out for others”, “have a soft heart”可知喜欢甜食的人更有可能“同情他人的感受”、“为他人抽出时间”、“心肠软”，应用比较级more likely。故填more likely。 【45题详解】 考查名词。句意：因此，该研究的结果表明，不同文化背景的人根据理论框架，用甜味体验来理解和概念化一个人的内心温暖。作宾语，表示“温暖”应用名词warmth，不可数。故填warmth。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 46. 假定你是李华，你校英文报开设了“My Everyday Hero”专栏，请你写一篇短文投稿，分享校园中感动或影响过你的人。内容包括： 1．人物简介； 2．具体事例； 3．对你的影响。 注意： 1．写作词数80左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 My Everyday Hero ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 My Everyday Hero Of all the people I encounter in my school, our security guard Uncle Wang, stands out with his unwavering smile that has brightened countless mornings for students like me.

Slowing down, I opened the window and called out, “Need a ride?” I helped her into the passenger seat, and we were off. She directed me to go farther south. Suddenly, I realized we were on the “wrong side of town.” It was starting to get dark, and I began to feel uneasy. We continued down unfamiliar streets until she finally pointed to an old apartment building. The street was dirty and the air was smelly. Several young men gathered around the entrance. They appeared threatening. Some were on motorcycles, and one boy with bushy, long hair was staring at me intently (目不转睛地) — too intently — and smiling. I was getting more and more uncomfortable. I stopped the car. A couple of the guys helped with the groceries. The old lady thanked me, and I drove away as fast as I could. I was driving when I was interrupted by a motorcycle behind me. It was that boy who kept smiling at me with a strange look! In a panic, I slowed down, hoping he would pass me. But he continued to drive at the same speed as me. I realized he was waving for me to stop. No way was I going to stop for a stranger on an unfamiliar street. I tried to speed away, but it didn’t stop him. He raced after me again. Getting increasingly anxious, I reached down in the passenger seat to get my cell phone. I had to call 911. With my eyes on the road, one hand on the wheel and the other hand searching on the seat next to me, I found a phone. But it wasn’t mine. “Oh no, the lady took my phone by mistake!” Meanwhile, the guy on the bike stayed close to me. 注意：(1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 I saw the boy waving something. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I felt guilty and wanted to reward the boy. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: I saw the boy waving something. Squinting through the rearview mirror, I realized it was my cell phone — its familiar case glinting in the dim streetlight. My heart skipped a beat, and I slowly pulled over, still on edge. He stopped his motorcycle beside me, holding out the phone with a gentle smile. “The old lady left this in my apartment building,” he said softly. “I saw it was yours and rushed to catch up. Didn’t mean to scare you.” His words melted my panic, and I felt a rush of embarrassment for judging him so quickly. I felt guilty and wanted to reward the boy. I fumbled in my wallet, but he shook his head firmly. “No need, ma’am. I just didn’t want you to worry about your phone.” His kindness made my cheeks burn. Instead, I asked for his name — Liam — and told him I’d bring him a homemade meal the next day. The next afternoon, I dropped off a plate of lasagna at his apartment. He thanked me with a big grin, and we chatted for a few minutes. That day, I learned never to judge someone by their appearance; sometimes, angels wear leather jackets and ride motorcycles. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，文章讲述作者在炎热天气载了一位老年妇女，因去了陌生街区且遇到看似有威胁的年轻人而不安，离开后被其中一男孩骑摩托追赶，作者恐慌时发现手机被妇女错拿，后男孩归还手机，作者愧疚并想报答，也明白不能以貌取人。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段内容“我看见那个男孩正挥舞着什么东西。”可知，第一段可描写男孩挥舞着作者的手机追赶，停车后解释是老奶奶遗落让他归还，作者既安心又愧疚。 ②由第二段首句内容“我心怀愧疚，想报答这个男孩。”可知，第二段可描写作者愧疚想报答男孩遭拒，得知其名后送家常千层面，聊天中领悟不可以貌取人，平凡外表下或藏善意。 2. 续写线索：男孩追赶——男孩解释——作者既安心又愧疚——想报答男孩遭拒——聊天——感悟 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①意识到：realize/be aware that ②停车：pull over/pull up ③担心：worry about/be concerned about 情绪类 ①恐慌：panic/fear/terror ②尴尬：embarrassment/awkwardness 【点睛】【高分句型1】He stopped his motorcycle beside me, holding out the phone with a gentle smile. （运用了现在分词短语作状语） 【高分句型2】Instead, I asked for his name — Liam — and told him I’d bring him a homemade meal the next day. （运用了省略that的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
