On a museum announcement. B I grew up in a poor family. I thought everyone in the city took the bus, because everyone in my neighborhood took the bus. I thought everyone in the city used the food bank, because all my friends’ cupboards were filled with the same government-labeled food that filled my cupboards. And I thought we all wore hand-me-down clothes. Not until shopping in the grocery was I aware that my family was a little different. My mom used paper money that looked different from the paper money others in line were using. I asked my mom why our money looked different. She said that we used food stamps that were helped by the government so we could eat. In high school, I was still embarrassed and wished we were not so poor, but I loved my mom and the other members of my family and knew we had things to be proud of. My mother taught me how to love and told me to believe in myself. Growing up in poverty taught me perseverance. I have always believed in myself and my abilities. I knew I could focus on school and build a life that looked different from my childhood. As I became a man, I started understanding how my experiences enabled me to be resilient (有韧性的), and how to respect people for who they are as an individual — and not by what they have. I think there are a lot of fixed images placed on those experiencing poverty that do not actually come from the people experiencing it. These judgments come from people on the outside trying not to look into the experience. Hardworking, trustworthy, reliable, clean, efficient, successful and disciplined are all words not typically associated with poverty. But those words are very much shown by those experiencing poverty. I am proud to be who I am and proud of where I’m from. 24. When did the author first realize his family was poor? A. When he wore hand-me-down clothes. B. When he took the bus with his neighbors. C. When he used the food bank with his friends. D. When he went grocery shopping with his mom. 25. What can we infer from the third paragraph? A. The author’s mother played an important role in his life. B. The author was determined to help other poor people. C. The author felt ashamed of his poverty all the time. D. The author wanted to escape from his family in high school. 26. What’s the author’s attitude towards to his experience? A. Frightened. B. Grateful. C. Annoyed. D. Confused. 27. What does the author mainly want to tell us? A. Young people suffer a lot of pain from poverty. B. People should not be judged by their possessions. C. The government should provide more help for the poor. D. Poverty shaped his character and he is proud of his origin. C Artificial intelligence (AI) is playing an increasingly important role in the restoration of Dunhuang murals (壁画). Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes, located in Gansu Province, are home to more than 45,000 square meters of murals, some of which date back over 1,600 years. However, these precious artworks are facing threats from natural aging, climate change, and human activities. A team of researchers from Tsinghua University has developed an AI-based system to assist in mural restoration. The system first uses high-resolution cameras to capture detailed images of the murals. Then, AI algorithms analyze the images to identify damaged areas, such as cracks, fading, and peeling. “AI can quickly and accurately detect even the smallest damages that are difficult for human eyes to spot,” said Professor Chen, the leader of the research team. After identifying the damaged areas the AI system provides restoration suggestions based on historical data and the style of the murals. For example, if a color has faded, the AI can recommend the most appropriate color to match the original. The system also helps restorers simulate the restoration effect before actual work begins, which reduces the risk of mistakes. “The AI system has greatly improved the efficiency and accuracy of mural restoration,” Professor Chen said. “What used to take restorers months to complete can now be done in a few weeks with the help of AI.” However, Professor Chen also pointed out that AI is only an assistant tool. “Human restorers still play a crucial role in making final decisions, as restoration requires not only technical skills but also a deep understanding of the cultural and historical background of the murals.” Some experts are concerned about the over-reliance on AI in cultural heritage restoration. “We should not let AI replace human judgment,” said Dr. Li, a cultural heritage expert. “The value of cultural heritage lies not only in its appearance but also in the human emotions and craftsmanship behind it.” 28. What is the main threat to Dunhuang murals mentioned in the text? A. Lack of research funds. B. Insufficient restoration technology. C. Natural aging and human activities. D. Lack of professional restorers. 29. What is the first step of the AI-based restoration system? A. Analyzing the damaged areas. B. Capturing detailed images of the murals. C. Providing restoration suggestions. D. Simulating the restoration effect. 30. Why is human involvement still crucial in mural restoration? A. AI cannot detect small damages. B. AI is too expensive to use widely. C Restoration requires cultural and historical understanding. D. Human restorers work faster than AI. 31. What is Dr. Li’s attitude towards the use of AI in mural restoration? A. Fully supportive. B. Strongly opposed. C. Cautious. D. Indifferent. D A new study suggests that people who are good at seeing things from others’ standpoints are more likely to be creative in everyday life. In the study, researchers from the University of Vienna surveyed young Chinese adults about their perspective-taking (换位思考) ability by asking how much they agreed with statements like, “I sometimes try to understand my friends better by imagining how things look from their standpoint” or “When I am reading an interesting story or novel, I imagine how I would feel if the events in the story were happening to me.” They also checked if people had joined in creative activities like designing gardens, writing articles, or inventing in the past year. The results showed that cognitive empathy (认知同理心), not emotional empathy, was closely connected to everyday creativity. People who could imagine others’ standpoints were more active in creative acts. “People who are identified as being more empathic are not only more creative, but may be more productive with their creativity, too,” says Matthew Pelowski of the University of Vienna and a co-author of the study. To test the connection, Pelowski and his team studied data (数据) from an ongoing, longitudinal (纵向的) study in China called the Gene-Brain-Behavior project. By studying the data on empathy, creativity, and many other factors over one to two years, they could see how measures of empathy might predict future creativity. They found that higher perspective-taking ability at one time predicted more creative achievements later, especially in arts, writing, and inventing. Surprisingly, emotional empathy didn’t show this connection. Studies suggest that cognitive empathy helps people find new ways to see and express the world, which is key to creativity. While the reason why emotional empathy doesn’t relate to creativity isn’t clear, it might be because creative work needs focus on ideas rather than others’ emotions. Luckily, empathy can be trained — for example, by imagining characters’ feelings in books or talking with people from different backgrounds. Developing this skill could promote or both your creativity and personal growth. 32. What did the study mainly find? A. Creative people may be more emotional. B. Cognitive empathy drives everyday creativity. C. Emotional empathy improves artistic skills. D. Young adults are more creative than the old. 33. Which opinion would Matthew Pelowski most likely agree with? A. Empathy cannot be learned. B. The empathy-creativity link is weak. C. Emotional empathy matters most for art. D. Empathic people create more creative work. 34. How did researchers measure the connection between cognitive empathy and creativity? A. They organized creative activities. B. They examined brain activities. C. They studied the collected data. D. They tested reactions to others’ emotions. 35. What can we infer from the text? A. Empathy can be improved through reading. B Creative people seldom care about others’ feelings. C. Emotional empathy helps in scientific discovery. D. Perspective-taking reduces creative productivity. 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。 How to Remember What You Read Reading is important, but the next important step is to make sure that you remember what you’ve read!

Growing up, she was my hero and companion. Every weekend, she would take me on exciting adventures. Whether it was exploring the nearby woods or visiting the local zoo, our weekends were filled with laughter and joy. Little did I know that one of our outings would become a memorable lesson in kindness and bravery. When I was five, a crucial moment in our relationship occurred: Lily learned how to ride a bicycle. “I can do this!” she exclaimed (大声说) one sunny Saturday morning. With her newly acquired skills, she decided to take me on a bike ride to the nearby park. The sun shone brightly in a clear blue sky, and a gentle wind swept through the leaves, creating a perfect day for an adventure. Lily packed a colorful backpack with my favorite snacks — “Chocolate cookies, sweets, and don’t forget your toy dinosaur!” — and added my beloved toy for company. As we set off, I felt a mix of excitement and curiosity. Lily’s laughter filled the air as she rode the bike, her long hair flowing in the wind. I couldn’t help but join her joy, singing silly songs at the top of my lungs. “Twinkle, twinkle, little star!” I sang, my voice echoing in the quiet neighborhood. The world felt peaceful and alive, and I was certain that nothing could ruin this perfect day. However, as we approached a sharp turn, the unexpected happened. Just as we were about to turn, a motorcycle sped by, and a young man, later known as Jake, rushed past us. “Whoa!” Lily shouted. Still mastering her cycling skills, she reacted quickly to avoid a crash, but in doing so, she lost her balance. In a heart-stopping moment, we fell off the bike and collapsed to the ground, the bike crashing beside us. The impact was sudden, and a sharp pain shot through my leg. I let out a loud cry, tears streaming down my cheeks. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Lily, in shock and panic, rushed to my side. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Jake then offered to take us on his motorcycle to a nearby hospital. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。Here are your shirts, coat and trousers.

A 20. A 【解析】 【原文】W: It is easy to get confused by many different kinds of English spoken all over the world. Native English speakers come from many different places, including America, England, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and even my home country, South Africa. Although they all speak English, they do not say everything in the same way. There are a few important differences. Sometimes the pronunciation will be different, at other times, the vocabulary will not be the same. If you learn these differences, you will have a much easier time understanding native English speakers, no matter where they are from. People from Britain are known for speaking with very clear, polite English, but this is not true for all British people. In reality, mainly upper-class English people in the south speak this way. British people use many of their own special words, too. If you hear a British person cry out, “I’m knackered,” it means “I’m very tired.” And when it is cold, British people wear their jumpers, which is the British word for sweater. 第二部分 阅读理解（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 History of Photography: Postmodernism October 17-November 28 1:00 p. m.-4:00 p. m.

I thought everyone in the city took the bus, because everyone in my neighborhood took the bus. I thought everyone in the city used the food bank, because all my friends’ cupboards were filled with the same government-labeled food that filled my cupboards. And I thought we all wore hand-me-down clothes. Not until shopping in the grocery was I aware that my family was a little different. My mom used paper money that looked different from the paper money others in line were using. I asked my mom why our money looked different. She said that we used food stamps that were helped by the government so we could eat. In high school, I was still embarrassed and wished we were not so poor, but I loved my mom and the other members of my family and knew we had things to be proud of. My mother taught me how to love and told me to believe in myself. Growing up in poverty taught me perseverance. I have always believed in myself and my abilities. I knew I could focus on school and build a life that looked different from my childhood. As I became a man, I started understanding how my experiences enabled me to be resilient (有韧性的), and how to respect people for who they are as an individual — and not by what they have. I think there are a lot of fixed images placed on those experiencing poverty that do not actually come from the people experiencing it. These judgments come from people on the outside trying not to look into the experience. Hardworking, trustworthy, reliable, clean, efficient, successful and disciplined are all words not typically associated with poverty. But those words are very much shown by those experiencing poverty. I am proud to be who I am and proud of where I’m from. 24. When did the author first realize his family was poor? A. When he wore hand-me-down clothes. B. When he took the bus with his neighbors. C. When he used the food bank with his friends. D. When he went grocery shopping with his mom. 25. What can we infer from the third paragraph? A. The author’s mother played an important role in his life. B. The author was determined to help other poor people. C. The author felt ashamed of his poverty all the time. D. The author wanted to escape from his family in high school. 26. What’s the author’s attitude towards to his experience? A. Frightened. B. Grateful. C. Annoyed. D. Confused. 27. What does the author mainly want to tell us? A. Young people suffer a lot of pain from poverty. B. People should not be judged by their possessions. C. The government should provide more help for the poor. D. Poverty shaped his character and he is proud of his origin. 【答案】24. D 25. A 26. B 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者回顾了自己在贫困中成长的经历，起初感到自卑，但逐渐认识到贫困培养了他的坚韧与自尊，他反对外界对贫困的刻板印象，并为自己的人生经历感到自豪。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Not until shopping in the grocery was I aware that my family was a little different. My mom used paper money that looked different from the paper money others in line were using. (直到在杂货店购物，我才意识到我的家庭有点不同。我妈妈用的纸币和排队的其他人用的纸币看起来不一样。)”可知，当作者和妈妈一起去杂货店购物时，他第一次意识到他的家庭很穷。故选D项。 25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“In high school, I was still embarrassed and wished we were not so poor, but I loved my mom and the other members of my family and knew we had things to be proud of. My mother taught me how to love and told me to believe in myself. (上高中时，我仍然感到尴尬，希望我们不要那么穷，但我爱我的妈妈和家里的其他成员，知道我们有值得骄傲的事情。母亲教我如何去爱，告诉我要相信自己。)”可知，妈妈让在贫穷中长大的作者拥有爱的能力和自信，说明她在他的生活中扮演了重要角色。故选A项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Growing up in poverty taught me perseverance. I have always believed in myself and my abilities. I knew I could focus on school and build a life that looked different from my childhood. (在贫困中长大教会了我坚毅。我一直相信自己和自己的能力。我知道我可以专注于学业，建立一个与童年不同的生活。)”和最后一段中“As I became a man, I started understanding how my experiences enabled me to be resilient (有韧性的), and how to respect people for who they are as an individual — and not by what they have. (当我长大成人后，我开始明白我的经历是如何让我变得坚韧，以及如何尊重一个人的个性，而不是他们拥有什么。)”可知，这些经历塑造了作者的性格和能力，他对此充满感激。故选B项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Hardworking, trustworthy, reliable, clean, efficient, successful and disciplined are all words not typically associated with poverty. But those words are very much shown by those experiencing poverty. I am proud to be who I am and proud of where I’m from. (勤奋、值得信赖、可靠、干净、高效、成功和自律，这些词通常都与贫穷无关。但这些话在那些经历贫困的人身上得到了很好的体现。我为我是谁而自豪，为我来自哪里而自豪。)”可推知，作者感激贫困塑造了他的性格，他为自己出身贫困而感到自豪。故选D项。 C Artificial intelligence (AI) is playing an increasingly important role in the restoration of Dunhuang murals (壁画). Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes, located in Gansu Province, are home to more than 45,000 square meters of murals, some of which date back over 1,600 years. However, these precious artworks are facing threats from natural aging, climate change, and human activities. A team of researchers from Tsinghua University has developed an AI-based system to assist in mural restoration. The system first uses high-resolution cameras to capture detailed images of the murals. Then, AI algorithms analyze the images to identify damaged areas, such as cracks, fading, and peeling. “AI can quickly and accurately detect even the smallest damages that are difficult for human eyes to spot,” said Professor Chen, the leader of the research team. After identifying the damaged areas, the AI system provides restoration suggestions based on historical data and the style of the murals. For example, if a color has faded, the AI can recommend the most appropriate color to match the original. The system also helps restorers simulate the restoration effect before actual work begins, which reduces the risk of mistakes. “The AI system has greatly improved the efficiency and accuracy of mural restoration,” Professor Chen said. “What used to take restorers months to complete can now be done in a few weeks with the help of AI.” However, Professor Chen also pointed out that AI is only an assistant tool. “Human restorers still play a crucial role in making final decisions, as restoration requires not only technical skills but also a deep understanding of the cultural and historical background of the murals.” Some experts are concerned about the over-reliance on AI in cultural heritage restoration. “We should not let AI replace human judgment,” said Dr. Li, a cultural heritage expert. “The value of cultural heritage lies not only in its appearance but also in the human emotions and craftsmanship behind it.” 28. What is the main threat to Dunhuang murals mentioned in the text? A. Lack of research funds. B. Insufficient restoration technology. C. Natural aging and human activities. D. Lack of professional restorers. 29. What is the first step of the AI-based restoration system? A. Analyzing the damaged areas. B. Capturing detailed images of the murals. C. Providing restoration suggestions. D. Simulating the restoration effect. 30. Why is human involvement still crucial in mural restoration? A. AI cannot detect small damages. B. AI is too expensive to use widely. C. Restoration requires cultural and historical understanding. D. Human restorers work faster than AI. 31. What is Dr. Li’s attitude towards the use of AI in mural restoration? A. Fully supportive. B. Strongly opposed. C. Cautious. D. Indifferent. 【答案】28. C 29. B 30. C 31. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了人工智能在敦煌壁画修复中的应用，包括其工作原理、优势以及存在的争议。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“However, these precious artworks are facing threats from natural aging, climate change, and human activities.(然而，这些珍贵的艺术品正面临着自然老化、气候变化和人类活动的威胁。)”可知，敦煌壁画的主要威胁是自然老化和人类活动。故选C。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The system first uses high-resolution cameras to capture detailed images of the murals.(该系统首先使用高分辨率相机捕捉壁画的详细图像。)”可知，基于人工智能的修复系统的第一步是捕捉壁画的详细图像。故选B。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Human restorers still play a crucial role in making final decisions, as restoration requires not only technical skills but also a deep understanding of the cultural and historical background of the murals.(人类修复者在做出最终决定时仍然起着至关重要的作用，因为修复不仅需要技术技能，还需要对壁画的文化和历史背景有深刻的理解。)”可知，人类参与壁画修复仍然至关重要是因为修复需要文化和历史的理解。故选C。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Some experts are concerned about the over-reliance on AI in cultural heritage restoration. “We should not let AI replace human judgment,” said Dr. Li, a cultural heritage expert.( 部分专家对文化遗产修复领域过度依赖人工智能的现象表示担忧。文化遗产专家李博士指出：“我们不应让人工智能取代人类的主观判断力。”)”可知，李博士对在壁画修复中使用人工智能的态度是谨慎的。故选C。 D A new study suggests that people who are good at seeing things from others’ standpoints are more likely to be creative in everyday life. In the study, researchers from the University of Vienna surveyed young Chinese adults about their perspective-taking (换位思考) ability by asking how much they agreed with statements like, “I sometimes try to understand my friends better by imagining how things look from their standpoint” or “When I am reading an interesting story or novel, I imagine how I would feel if the events in the story were happening to me.” They also checked if people had joined in creative activities like designing gardens, writing articles, or inventing in the past year. The results showed that cognitive empathy (认知同理心), not emotional empathy, was closely connected to everyday creativity. People who could imagine others’ standpoints were more active in creative acts. “People who are identified as being more empathic are not only more creative, but may be more productive with their creativity, too,” says Matthew Pelowski of the University of Vienna and a co-author of the study. To test the connection, Pelowski and his team studied data (数据) from an ongoing, longitudinal (纵向的) study in China called the Gene-Brain-Behavior project. By studying the data on empathy, creativity, and many other factors over one to two years, they could see how measures of empathy might predict future creativity. They found that higher perspective-taking ability at one time predicted more creative achievements later, especially in arts, writing, and inventing. Surprisingly, emotional empathy didn’t show this connection. Studies suggest that cognitive empathy helps people find new ways to see and express the world, which is key to creativity. While the reason why emotional empathy doesn’t relate to creativity isn’t clear, it might be because creative work needs focus on ideas rather than others’ emotions. Luckily, empathy can be trained — for example, by imagining characters’ feelings in books or talking with people from different backgrounds. Developing this skill could promote or both your creativity and personal growth. 32. What did the study mainly find? A. Creative people may be more emotional. B. Cognitive empathy drives everyday creativity. C. Emotional empathy improves artistic skills. D. Young adults are more creative than the old. 33. Which opinion would Matthew Pelowski most likely agree with? A. Empathy cannot be learned. B. The empathy-creativity link is weak. C. Emotional empathy matters most for art. D. Empathic people create more creative work. 34. How did researchers measure the connection between cognitive empathy and creativity? A. They organized creative activities. B. They examined brain activities. C. They studied the collected data. D. They tested reactions to others’ emotions. 35. What can we infer from the text? A. Empathy can be improved through reading. B. Creative people seldom care about others’ feelings. C. Emotional empathy helps in scientific discovery. D. Perspective-taking reduces creative productivity. 【答案】32. B 33. D 34. C 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了维也纳大学的一项研究发现，即认知同理心与日常创造力密切相关，而情感同理心则无此关联，同时说明了研究的开展方式以及同理心可通过训练提升，进而促进创造力和个人成长。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The results showed that cognitive empathy (认知同理心), not emotional empathy, was closely connected to everyday creativity. (结果表明，是认知同理心而非情感同理心，与日常创造力密切相关。)”可知，该研究主要发现认知同理心驱动日常创造力。故选B项。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的““People who are identified as being more empathic are not only more creative, but may be more productive with their creativity, too,” says Matthew Pelowski of the University of Vienna and a co-author of the study. (“被认为更具同理心的人不仅更有创造力，而且他们的创造力可能也更具成效，”维也纳大学的马修·佩洛斯基说，他是这项研究的合著者之一。)”可知，马修·佩洛斯基很可能认同“有同理心的人能创作出更多创造性作品”这一观点。故选D项。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“To test the connection, Pelowski and his team studied data (数据) from an ongoing, longitudinal (纵向的) study in China called the Gene-Brain-Behavior project. (为了测试这种关联，佩洛斯基和他的团队研究了来自中国一项正在进行的纵向研究——基因-大脑-行为项目的数据。)”可知，研究人员通过研究收集到的数据来衡量认知同理心与创造力之间的关联。故选C项。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Luckily, empathy can be trained — for example, by imagining characters’ feelings in books or talking with people from different backgrounds. (幸运的是，同理心可以通过训练来提升——例如，通过想象书中人物的感受或与不同背景的人交谈。)”可推断，同理心可以通过阅读来提升。故选A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。 How to Remember What You Read Reading is important, but the next important step is to make sure that you remember what you’ve read! Memory is sometimes a tricky thing. You may have just read the text, but the ideas, concepts and images may fly right out of your head. ___36___ Are you confused? If the plot, character, or word usage is confusing for you, you likely won’t be able to remember what you read. ___37___ If you don’t understand what you’re reading, how would you remember it? There are a few things you can do — use a dictionary; look up the difficult words; consult a teacher... Are you connected? Does a character remind you of a friend? Does the setting make you want to visit the place? Does the book inspire you and make you want to read more? With some books, you may feel a connection right away. ___38___ How willing are you to make the connections happen? Read it; hear it; be it! Read the lines. Then, speak them out loud. And, put some characters into the words. When he was writing his novels, Charles Dickens would act out the stories of the characters. He’d make faces in the mirror and change his voice for each character. ___39___ How often do you read? If you read frequently, you’ll likely have an easier time remembering what you’re reading and what you’ve read. ___40___ As you make reading a regular part of your life, you’ll make more connections, stay more focused and understand the text much better. You’ll learn to enjoy literature as you remember what you read! A. What’s your motivation? B. Practice makes perfect. C. It’s a bit like reading a foreign language. D. Marking helps you remember what you read. E. Here are a few tips for remembering what you read. F. But other books require a bit more work on your part. G.

If you read frequently, you’ll likely have an easier time remembering what you’re reading and what you’ve read.(你多久读一次书？如果你经常阅读，你可能会更容易记住正在读的和已经读过的内容。)”及下文“As you make reading a regular part of your life, you’ll make more connections, stay more focused and understand the text much better.(当你将阅读培养成生活中一项常规习惯时，你会建立更多知识关联，保持更集中的注意力，并且对文本的理解也会深刻得多)”可知，空格处需点明“频繁阅读”的核心原理——熟能生巧。B选项“Practice makes perfect.(熟能生巧。)”是对“频繁阅读带来记忆提升”的概括，既呼应了“read frequently”，又为下文“阅读成为习惯后的好处”提供了理论支撑，符合语境。故选B项。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 In 1271, at the age of around 17, Marco Polo embarked on his first journey to the East with his father and uncle and reached the Mongol court in 1275.

Growing up, she was my hero and companion. Every weekend, she would take me on exciting adventures. Whether it was exploring the nearby woods or visiting the local zoo, our weekends were filled with laughter and joy. Little did I know that one of our outings would become a memorable lesson in kindness and bravery. When I was five, a crucial moment in our relationship occurred: Lily learned how to ride a bicycle. “I can do this!” she exclaimed (大声说) one sunny Saturday morning. With her newly acquired skills, she decided to take me on a bike ride to the nearby park. The sun shone brightly in a clear blue sky, and a gentle wind swept through the leaves, creating a perfect day for an adventure. Lily packed a colorful backpack with my favorite snacks — “Chocolate cookies, sweets, and don’t forget your toy dinosaur!” — and added my beloved toy for company. As we set off, I felt a mix of excitement and curiosity. Lily’s laughter filled the air as she rode the bike, her long hair flowing in the wind. I couldn’t help but join her joy, singing silly songs at the top of my lungs. “Twinkle, twinkle, little star!” I sang, my voice echoing in the quiet neighborhood. The world felt peaceful and alive, and I was certain that nothing could ruin this perfect day. However, as we approached a sharp turn, the unexpected happened. Just as we were about to turn, a motorcycle sped by, and a young man, later known as Jake, rushed past us. “Whoa!” Lily shouted. Still mastering her cycling skills, she reacted quickly to avoid a crash, but in doing so, she lost her balance. In a heart-stopping moment, we fell off the bike and collapsed to the ground, the bike crashing beside us. The impact was sudden, and a sharp pain shot through my leg. I let out a loud cry, tears streaming down my cheeks. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Lily, in shock and panic, rushed to my side. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Jake then offered to take us on his motorcycle to a nearby hospital. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Lily, in shock and panic, rushed to my side. Her own leg was badly hurt as well, but her focus was on me. “I’m so sorry! I’m so sorry!” she repeated, pulling me into her arms. Just then, the motorcycle rider stopped and approached us. His eyes widened with concern as he assessed the situation. “I’m really sorry! Are you both okay?” he asked, kneeling beside us. Noticing our injuries, he quickly introduced himself as Jake and suggested we go to the hospital to treat our wounds. Jake then offered to take us on his motorcycle to a nearby hospital. A nurse cleaned our scratches and wrapped our legs while Jake entertained me with stories about his own childhood adventures. The kind man stayed with us, ensuring we both received the care we needed. After our treatment, we left the hospital and waved goodbye to Jake, who even promised to check on us later. This experience turned out to be a mix of joy and pain, but I learned that with love and support we could face anything together. 【解析】 【导语】本文以作者与姐姐的冒险经历为线索展开。作者一直崇拜大自己十岁的姐姐Lily，一次姐姐学会骑车后带作者去公园，途中遭遇意外，两人摔倒在地，作者腿部剧痛，不禁大声哭泣。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首内容“Lily又惊又慌，冲到我身边。”可知，第一段可描写Lily不顾自身伤势安慰作者，摩托车骑手Jake停下道歉，查看二人的伤情后提议去医院。 ②由第二段句首内容“Jake随后主动提出骑摩托车送我们去附近的医院。”可知，第二段可描写Jake用摩托车送二人去医院，护士清理伤口并包扎，Jake讲故事逗作者，陪伴二人直到治疗结束，二人挥手告别Jake，作者从中领悟到爱与支持的力量。 2.续写线索：摔倒受伤——Lily安慰作者—— 骑手Jake致歉 ——Jake送医 ——医护处理伤口——Jake陪伴照顾——告别Jake并领悟道理 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①接近：approach/get close to ②拉入怀中：pull into one’s arms/draw into one’s embrace/take into one’s hug ③评估情况：assess the situation/evaluate the circumstances/judge the state of affairs 情绪类 ①快乐：joy/happiness/delight ②痛苦：pain/suffering/anguish 【点睛】【高分句型1】After our treatment, we left the hospital and waved goodbye to Jake, who even promised to check on us later.
