I was there to ask about the latest campaign. But when I sat down, he wanted to talk about writing novels. He spent hours meeting with clients(客户), but he dreamed of being a novelist instead. I remember thinking: Sure, everybody dreams to be a novelist. Who doesn’t? A decade later, however, I was surprised to see the same person on TV, holding up his new book. James Patterson had developed into a best-selling author. He has since published more than 100 New York Times best sellers. “I never thought of myself as an advertising person,” he told me when I asked how he’d done it. “I always planned to be a writer.” Mr. Patterson’s ability to sec himself as a writer shows a term(术语) “possible selves.” It describes how people envision their futures: what they may become, or want to become, etc. The term, created in 1986 by the social psychologists Hazel Markus and Paula Nurius,grew out of research on self-concept and self-perception(自我知觉).While self-concepts, like “I am a kind person” or “I am a good parent”, are based on the present, the researchers found that people are also influenced by possible selves - what they might become in the future and how they might change. These possible selves,both positive and negative,are closely related to motivation (动机).In a small study, when young adults were made to envision themselves as either regular exercisers (hoped-for selves) or inactive (feared selves),both groups exercised more in the weeks afterward. But researchers have found that imagining positive possible selves can improve health and reduce depression by holding out the hope for a better future. A possible self can help you realize daydreams, which seem to be unrealistic, “if you build a bridge from your ‘now’ self to the possible self,” Dr. Markus said. But how do we build that bridge? 4. What was the author’s attitude towards James Patterson’s dream at first? A. Doubtful. B. Curious. C. Worried. D. Disappointed. 5. What does the underlined word “envision” mean in the fourth paragraph? A. Face. B. Imagine. C. Make. D. Determine. 6. What can we learn about “possible self” from paragraphs 5 and 6? A. It is a necessity for a better future. B. It refers to a person’s present behaviors. C. Negative possible selves cannot inspire people. D. Imagining positive possible selves can promote one’s health. 7. What will be talked about in the following paragraphs? A. How a possible self can be of help. B. How to connect “now” self and possible self. C. What could be done to change one’s possible self. D. What motivation is needed to have a positive self. C Whether humanity expresses itself in paintings, books, movies, songs or any other creative media, art always finds its way back to the person who made it and their life stories. It is hard to define what “good” art is, but to me, it means anything that somebody created with the intention of representing something that matters to them. The one thing that I will never call “art”, however, is anything that was made with artificial intelligence. Take painting for example. Most of the well-known painters of the past 200 years drew on the lives they lived to make their art. Claude Monet, for example, was inspired by the water garden that he would see daily at his estate (房产) in Normandy, France. This series included some of his most famous works made in the impressionism style, which focuses on creating the illusion (幻觉) of movement to represent humanity. The point is that painters drew on the places they lived in and their views of life to create art. They used their understanding of style, color and movement to create lovely images and represent what mattered to them. That is something that AI is unable to do. The AI program can only generate an image based on a collection of images from the websites. It cannot draw on its own experience at all. Another common use of AI programs is to have them generate the written word. For me, there is no heart or soul in what the AI produces. The product requires no thought or effort, both of which are key parts of meaningful written work. Author Nora Roberts, who has had 68 of her romance novels appear on The New York Times bestseller list, once said that you have to love the written word to be capable of good writing. AI cannot feel emotions and love what it writes. Therefore, how could it ever create good writing? The beautiful thing about life is that we all go through it differently, and art has the ability to bring us together with our unique experiences. Neither can AI replicate (复制) that, nor should we make it try. 8. What is considered essential for creating meaningful art? A. Artistic skills. B. Unique styles of art. C. Personal experiences. D. Advanced technologies. 9. Why does the author mention Monet’s artworks? A. To highlight Monet’s talent for art. B. To give an example of genuine art. C. To trace the beginnings of impressionism. D. To describe famous painting techniques. 10. What is lacking in AI-produced writing? A. Accuracy and detail. B. Depth and persuasion. C. Structure and balance. D. Emotion and passion. 11. What does the author wish to achieve in the text? A. To criticize writers’ dependence on AI. B. To show AI’s value in creative work. C. To discourage the use of AI in art. D. To reveal AI’s importance to artists. Coral reefs in Florida have lost an estimated 90% of their corals in the last 40 years. This summer, a marine heat wave hit Florida’s coral reefs. The record high temperatures created an extremely stressful environment for the coral reefs, which are currently also experiencing intense coral bleaching (白化). A coral is an animal, which has a symbiotic relationship with a microscopic algae (藻类). The algae gets energy from the sun and shares it with the coral internally. The coral builds a rock-like structure, which makes up most of the reef, providing homes and food for many organisms that live there. Coral bleaching is when the symbiotic relationship breaks down. Without the algae, the corals appear white because the rock skeleton becomes visible. If the bleaching continues for an extended period, the corals can starve to death without the energy. Florida is on the front lines of climate change. It is also on the cutting edge of restoration science. Many labs, institutions and other organizations are working nonstop to protect and maintain the coral reefs. This includes efforts to understand what is troubling the reef, from disease outbreaks to coastal development impacts. It also includes harvesting coral spawn (卵), or growing and planting coral parts. Scientists moved many coral nurseries into deeper water and shore-based facilities during this marine heat wave. They are digging into the DNA of the coral to discover which species will survive best in future. There are some bright spots in the story, however. Some corals have recovered from the bleaching, and many did not bleach at all. In addition, researchers recorded coral spawning. Although it’s not clear yet whether the larvae (幼虫) will be successful in the wild, it’s a sign of recovery potential. If the baby corals survive, they will be able to regrow the reef. They just have to avoid one big boss: human-induced climate change. 12. What does the underlined word “symbiotic” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Reliable. B. Opposite. C. Harmonious. D. Contradictory. 13. What caused the coral bleaching? A. The rock skeleton. B. The microscopic algae. C. The high temperatures. D. The symbiotic relationship. 14. Which is not the efforts scientists made to help coral reefs? A. Transferring coral nurseries. B. Growing and planting coral spawn. C. Researching the DNA of the coral. D. Figuring out the reasons for problems. 15. Which of the following best describes the impact of scientists’ efforts? A. Identifiable. B. Predictable. C. Far-reaching. D. Effective. 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。 International Volunteer Day on December 5th was designated to celebrate the power and potential of volunteerism.

He often found himself lost in the sea of faces and lockers. Ms. Brock, his English teacher, noticed this quiet young man from the first day of class. One afternoon, Jake was wandering (徘徊) the halls, trying to find the library. He noticed Ms. Brock in the office grading papers with full attention. It seemed that Ms. Brock had forgotten the world around her. Keeping up his courage, Jake came to her. “Um, excuse me, Ms. Brock?” Jake’s voice was shaking slightly. Ms. Brock looked up, her eyes filled with warmth.“ Yes, Jake? How can I help you?” Jake hesitated (犹豫), in broken sentences, “I... I’m trying to find the library. Could you, uh, tell me where it is?” Ms. Brock’s face broke into a smile, “Of course! It’s down the hall, second door on your left. You can’t miss it.” Relief (宽慰) washed over Jake’s face. “Thank you, Ms. Brock.” As the weeks passed, Jake turned to Ms. Brock for help more often. Whether it was talking about his homework or simply sharing his thoughts on the latest book they were studying, he found comfort in her patient encouragement. Ms. Brock, in turn, noticed Jake’s growing confidence. Everything went on well till a rainy Thursday afternoon. Jake held a test paper in his hand after class. There was a C on the paper. Ms. Brock walked to him. “Everything alright, Jake?” Jake replied, “I... I’m not sure if I can keep up with the class. The reading is getting harder, and I feel I’m falling behind.” Ms. Brock’s expression softened,“ Jake, learning is not a race. It’s about understanding at your own speed. You’re doing great-I see your hard work every day.” Jake lowered his head, “I just... I want to do well. But sometimes it feels difficult to deal with it.” 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。 Ms. Brock nodded knowingly. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With the score, Jake rushed to Ms. Brock’s office excitedly. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 育才中学2024-2025学年度高一下学期期中考试 英语试题 (2025.05) 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，并标在试卷的相应位置。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。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

I was there to ask about the latest campaign. But when I sat down, he wanted to talk about writing novels. He spent hours meeting with clients(客户), but he dreamed of being a novelist instead. I remember thinking: Sure, everybody dreams to be a novelist. Who doesn’t? A decade later, however, I was surprised to see the same person on TV, holding up his new book. James Patterson had developed into a best-selling author. He has since published more than 100 New York Times best sellers. “I never thought of myself as an advertising person,” he told me when I asked how he’d done it. “I always planned to be a writer.” Mr. Patterson’s ability to sec himself as a writer shows a term(术语) “possible selves.” It describes how people envision their futures: what they may become, or want to become, etc. The term, created in 1986 by the social psychologists Hazel Markus and Paula Nurius,grew out of research on self-concept and self-perception(自我知觉).While self-concepts, like “I am a kind person” or “I am a good parent”, are based on the present, the researchers found that people are also influenced by possible selves - what they might become in the future and how they might change. These possible selves,both positive and negative,are closely related to motivation (动机).In a small study, when young adults were made to envision themselves as either regular exercisers (hoped-for selves) or inactive (feared selves),both groups exercised more in the weeks afterward. But researchers have found that imagining positive possible selves can improve health and reduce depression by holding out the hope for a better future. A possible self can help you realize daydreams, which seem to be unrealistic, “if you build a bridge from your ‘now’ self to the possible self,” Dr. Markus said. But how do we build that bridge? 4. What was the author’s attitude towards James Patterson’s dream at first? A. Doubtful. B. Curious. C. Worried. D. Disappointed. 5. What does the underlined word “envision” mean in the fourth paragraph? A. Face. B. Imagine. C. Make. D. Determine. 6. What can we learn about “possible self” from paragraphs 5 and 6? A. It is a necessity for a better future. B. It refers to a person’s present behaviors. C. Negative possible selves cannot inspire people. D. Imagining positive possible selves can promote one’s health. 7. What will be talked about in the following paragraphs? A. How a possible self can be of help. B. How to connect “now” self and possible self. C. What could be done to change one’s possible self. D. What motivation is needed to have a positive self. 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者曾经采访一个广告经理，这位经理说自己想成为作家，多年后，这位经理真的梦想成真。作者由此了解了一个专业术语“可能的自我”，每个人都会受到可能的自我的影响。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“I remember thinking: Sure, everybody dreams to be a novelist. Who doesn’t?(我记得我当时想:当然，每个人都梦想成为小说家。谁不？)”可推断，作者最初听到这位广告经理的梦想时感到怀疑。故选A。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词下一句“what they may become, or want to become, etc.(他们可能成为什么，或者想成为什么，等等。)”可知，下文是人们对自己未来的畅想。选项A“Face (面对)”；选项B“Imagine (想象)”；选项C“Make (制作)”；选项D“Determine (决定)”。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第六段“But researchers have found that imagining positive possible selves can improve health and reduce depression by holding out the hope for a better future.(但研究人员发现，想象积极可能的自我可以通过对更美好的未来抱有希望来改善健康和减少抑郁。)”可知，想象积极的可能的自我对我们的健康有好处。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“A possible self can help you realize daydreams, which seem to be unrealistic, “if you build a bridge from your ‘now’ self to the possible self,” Dr. Markus said. But how do we build that bridge?(“如果你在‘现在的’自己和‘可能的’自己之间架起一座桥梁，” Markus博士说，“一个可能的自我可以帮助你实现白日梦，而这些白日梦似乎是不现实的。”但我们要如何搭建那座桥呢？)”可知，本段主要讲述的是如果在‘现在的’自己和‘可能的’自己之间架起一座桥梁，一个可能的自我可以帮助我们实现白日梦。再根据最后一句“But how do we build that bridge?”可知，接下来文章将会介绍如何建立‘现在的’自己和‘可能的’自己之间的一座桥梁。故选B。 C Whether humanity expresses itself in paintings, books, movies, songs or any other creative media, art always finds its way back to the person who made it and their life stories. It is hard to define what “good” art is, but to me, it means anything that somebody created with the intention of representing something that matters to them. The one thing that I will never call “art”, however, is anything that was made with artificial intelligence. Take painting for example. Most of the well-known painters of the past 200 years drew on the lives they lived to make their art. Claude Monet, for example, was inspired by the water garden that he would see daily at his estate (房产) in Normandy, France. This series included some of his most famous works made in the impressionism style, which focuses on creating the illusion (幻觉) of movement to represent humanity. The point is that painters drew on the places they lived in and their views of life to create art. They used their understanding of style, color and movement to create lovely images and represent what mattered to them. That is something that AI is unable to do. The AI program can only generate an image based on a collection of images from the websites. It cannot draw on its own experience at all. Another common use of AI programs is to have them generate the written word. For me, there is no heart or soul in what the AI produces. The product requires no thought or effort, both of which are key parts of meaningful written work. Author Nora Roberts, who has had 68 of her romance novels appear on The New York Times bestseller list, once said that you have to love the written word to be capable of good writing. AI cannot feel emotions and love what it writes. Therefore, how could it ever create good writing? The beautiful thing about life is that we all go through it differently, and art has the ability to bring us together with our unique experiences. Neither can AI replicate (复制) that, nor should we make it try. 8. What is considered essential for creating meaningful art? A. Artistic skills. B. Unique styles of art. C. Personal experiences. D. Advanced technologies. 9. Why does the author mention Monet’s artworks? A. To highlight Monet’s talent for art. B. To give an example of genuine art. C. To trace the beginnings of impressionism. D. To describe famous painting techniques. 10. What is lacking in AI-produced writing? A. Accuracy and detail. B. Depth and persuasion. C. Structure and balance. D. Emotion and passion. 11. What does the author wish to achieve in the text? A. To criticize writers’ dependence on AI. B. To show AI’s value in creative work. C. To discourage the use of AI in art. D. To reveal AI’s importance to artists. 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要论述真正的艺术源于创作者的个人经历，同时反对将人工智能生成的内容归为艺术。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“but to me, it means anything that somebody created with the intention of representing something that matters to them (但对我来说，好的艺术是创作者为了表达对自己重要的事物而创作的作品)”以及第三段中的“Most of the well-known painters of the past 200 years drew on the lives they lived to make their art (过去200年里，大多数著名画家都是从自己的生活中汲取灵感进行创作)”可知，创作有意义的艺术的关键要素是个人经历。故选C项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段的内容，作者先提出过去的著名画家从自身生活中汲取灵感创作艺术，随后以莫奈为例，说明莫奈的作品灵感来源于他在法国诺曼底庄园里每日所见的水景园。结合第四段首句“The point is that painters drew on the places they lived in and their views of life to create art (关键在于，画家们从自己生活的环境和对生活的见解中汲取灵感进行创作)”可知，作者提及莫奈的作品是为了举例说明什么是真正的艺术。故选B项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“For me, there is no heart or soul in what the AI produces (在我看来，人工智能生成的文字缺乏灵魂与内核)”以及“AI cannot feel emotions and love what it writes (人工智能无法感受情感，也不会热爱自己写下的内容)”可知，人工智能生成的文字缺少的是情感与热忱。故选D项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，作者开篇点明真正的艺术与创作者的个人经历相关，接着明确表示不会将人工智能生成的内容称为“艺术”，随后从绘画和文字创作两个方面对比人类创作与人工智能生成内容的本质区别，最后强调人工智能无法复制人类独特的生命体验，不应让其尝试创作艺术。由此可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是反对在艺术创作中使用人工智能。故选C项。 Coral reefs in Florida have lost an estimated 90% of their corals in the last 40 years. This summer, a marine heat wave hit Florida’s coral reefs. The record high temperatures created an extremely stressful environment for the coral reefs, which are currently also experiencing intense coral bleaching (白化). A coral is an animal, which has a symbiotic relationship with a microscopic algae (藻类). The algae gets energy from the sun and shares it with the coral internally. The coral builds a rock-like structure, which makes up most of the reef, providing homes and food for many organisms that live there. Coral bleaching is when the symbiotic relationship breaks down. Without the algae, the corals appear white because the rock skeleton becomes visible. If the bleaching continues for an extended period, the corals can starve to death without the energy. Florida is on the front lines of climate change. It is also on the cutting edge of restoration science. Many labs, institutions and other organizations are working nonstop to protect and maintain the coral reefs. This includes efforts to understand what is troubling the reef, from disease outbreaks to coastal development impacts. It also includes harvesting coral spawn (卵), or growing and planting coral parts. Scientists moved many coral nurseries into deeper water and shore-based facilities during this marine heat wave. They are digging into the DNA of the coral to discover which species will survive best in future. There are some bright spots in the story, however. Some corals have recovered from the bleaching, and many did not bleach at all. In addition, researchers recorded coral spawning. Although it’s not clear yet whether the larvae (幼虫) will be successful in the wild, it’s a sign of recovery potential. If the baby corals survive, they will be able to regrow the reef. They just have to avoid one big boss: human-induced climate change. 12. What does the underlined word “symbiotic” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Reliable. B. Opposite. C. Harmonious. D. Contradictory. 13. What caused the coral bleaching? A The rock skeleton. B. The microscopic algae. C. The high temperatures. D. The symbiotic relationship. 14. Which is not the efforts scientists made to help coral reefs? A. Transferring coral nurseries. B. Growing and planting coral spawn. C. Researching the DNA of the coral. D. Figuring out the reasons for problems. 15. Which of the following best describes the impact of scientists’ efforts? A. Identifiable. B. Predictable. C. Far-reaching. D. Effective. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了弗罗里达州的珊瑚礁因受高温天气影响而出现白化现象以及专家们为保护珊瑚礁所采取的措施。 【12题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第二段中划线词所在句的下文“The algae gets energy from the sun and shares it with the coral internally. The coral builds a rock-like structure, which makes up most of the reef, providing homes and food for many organisms that live there. (藻类从太阳获得能量，并在内部与珊瑚分享。珊瑚形成了一个岩石状的结构，构成了大部分的珊瑚礁，为生活在那里的许多生物提供了家园和食物。)”可知，珊瑚分享藻类从太阳获得能量，珊瑚礁为生活在那里的许多生物提供了家园和食物；因此，藻类与珊瑚之间是相互依存的共生关系；由此可知，划线词所在句子意为“珊瑚是一种动物，它与一种微小的藻类有共生关系”，因此划线词symbiotic表达的意思是“共生的，相互依赖的”，与reliable表达的意思一致。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“The record high temperatures created an extremely stressful environment for the coral reefs, which are currently also experiencing intense coral bleaching (白化).(创纪录的高温给珊瑚礁创造了一个极其紧张的环境，它们目前也在经历严重的珊瑚白化。)”可知，高温引起了珊瑚礁的白化现象。故选C。 【14题详解】 理解细节题。根据第三段中“Many labs, institutions and other organizations are working nonstop to protect and maintain the coral reefs. This includes efforts to understand what is troubling the reef, from disease outbreaks to coastal development impacts. It also includes harvesting coral spawn (卵), or growing and planting coral parts. Scientists moved many coral nurseries into deeper water and shore-based facilities during this marine heat wave. They are digging into the DNA of the coral to discover which species will survive best in future.(许多实验室、机构和其他组织都在不遗余力地保护和维护珊瑚礁。这包括努力了解是什么在困扰珊瑚礁，从疾病爆发到沿海发展的影响。它还包括收获珊瑚卵，或种植珊瑚枝节。在这次海洋热浪中，科学家们将许多珊瑚苗圃移到了更深的水域和海岸设施中。他们正在深入研究珊瑚的DNA，以发现哪些物种在未来存活得最好。)”可知，科学家们在不遗余力地保护和维护珊瑚礁，他们研究困扰珊瑚礁的因素、孵化珊瑚卵、种植珊瑚枝节、高温中把许多珊瑚苗圃移到了更深的水域和海岸设施中以及深入研究珊瑚的DNA以发现未来存活最好的物种；B选项“Growing and planting coral spawn.(种植珊瑚卵)”不是科学家所采取的保护措施。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“There are some bright spots in the story, however. Some corals have recovered from the bleaching, and many did not bleach at all. (然而，这个故事也有一些亮点。一些珊瑚已经从白化中恢复过来，许多珊瑚根本没有白化)”可知,经过科学家的努力，一些珊瑚已经从白化中恢复过来，许多珊瑚根本没有白化；由此可知，科学家们的努力有了成效。故选D。 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。 International Volunteer Day on December 5th was designated to celebrate the power and potential of volunteerism.

He often found himself lost in the sea of faces and lockers. Ms. Brock, his English teacher, noticed this quiet young man from the first day of class. One afternoon, Jake was wandering (徘徊) the halls, trying to find the library. He noticed Ms. Brock in the office grading papers with full attention. It seemed that Ms. Brock had forgotten the world around her. Keeping up his courage, Jake came to her. “Um, excuse me, Ms. Brock?” Jake’s voice was shaking slightly. Ms. Brock looked up, her eyes filled with warmth.“ Yes, Jake? How can I help you?” Jake hesitated (犹豫), in broken sentences, “I... I’m trying to find the library. Could you, uh, tell me where it is?” Ms. Brock’s face broke into a smile, “Of course! It’s down the hall, second door on your left. You can’t miss it.” Relief (宽慰) washed over Jake’s face. “Thank you, Ms. Brock.” As the weeks passed, Jake turned to Ms. Brock for help more often. Whether it was talking about his homework or simply sharing his thoughts on the latest book they were studying, he found comfort in her patient encouragement. Ms. Brock, in turn, noticed Jake’s growing confidence. Everything went on well till a rainy Thursday afternoon. Jake held a test paper in his hand after class. There was a C on the paper. Ms. Brock walked to him. “Everything alright, Jake?” Jake replied, “I... I’m not sure if I can keep up with the class. The reading is getting harder, and I feel I’m falling behind.” Ms. Brock’s expression softened,“ Jake, learning is not a race. It’s about understanding at your own speed. You’re doing great-I see your hard work every day.” Jake lowered his head, “I just... I want to do well. But sometimes it feels difficult to deal with it.” 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。 Ms. Brock nodded knowingly. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With the score, Jake rushed to Ms. Brock’s office excitedly. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Ms. Brock nodded knowingly. “It’s OK to feel a sense of loss sometimes. It means you’re challenging yourself. But remember, I’m here to help. We’ll work out the problem together, alright? I believe you can make it.” Jake raised his eyes from his paper slowly, with a small smile on his face. From then on, Jake put his whole heart into his schoolwork. Another test came as expected. And two days later, Jake got the test result—A. His hard work and Ms. Brock’s encouragement paid off. With the score, Jake rushed to Ms. Brock’s office excitedly. “I just want to say... thank you, Ms. Brock. For everything,” Jake said. “You’ve grown so much, Jake. Remember, learning doesn’t stop here. Keep exploring, keep questioning, and never stop believing in yourself,” Ms. Brock said with pride. Jake nodded, “I will. Thank you, Ms. Brock.” As Jake turned to leave, Ms. Brock called after him,“ Oh, and Jake?” He turned back. “You’ll always have a home here,” she said softly. Jake walked out of the office, carrying with Ms. Brock’s invaluable support. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。杰克是高一新生，初到学校感到迷茫。英语老师布罗克女士注意到了他。一天下午，杰克鼓起勇气向她问路。随着时间推移，杰克经常向布罗克女士求助，逐渐变得更加自信。直到一个雨天，杰克因成绩不佳而沮丧，布罗克女士鼓励他，让他重拾信心。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首内容“布罗克会意地点了点头。”可知，第一段可以描写布罗克老师对于杰克的鼓励和杰克的变化。 ②由第二段句首内容“听到这个分数，杰克兴奋地冲向布罗克女士办公室。”可知，第二段可以描写杰克对于布罗克的感谢和布罗克老师对杰克的激励。 2.续写线索：看到布罗克点了点头—被布罗克鼓励—投入到学业中—冲向布罗克办公室—感谢—带着支持走出办公室 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①解决这个问题：work out the problem/ solve the problem ②成功：make it/ succeed ③全心投入：put one’s whole heart into/ throw oneself into 情绪类 ①相信自己：believe in oneself/ trust oneself ②自豪地说：say with pride/ say proudly 【点睛】【高分句型1】I believe you can make it.
