B Photographer Brandon Stanton has spent more than a decade building the global storytelling movement called Humans of New York, a project that shares photos and personal stories of people he meets on the street. Now he is celebrating the city where it all began with his fifth book, Dear New York. Stanton grew up in Marietta, Georgia, and studied history at the University of Georgia. After college, he worked in finance in Chicago, Illinois. In 2010, he lost his job and moved to New York City with an idea: to photograph 10,000 people throughout the city and ask them their story. His subjects ranged from a retired teacher to an immigrant (移民) starting a business. It evolved into the series Humans of New York on social media and now has more than 30 million followers worldwide. Over the years, Stanton became a best-selling author of five collections of his photography, beginning with Humans of New York in 2013. His newest book, Dear New York, is filled with hundreds of portraits and stories collected over two years from across the city’s five districts. Stanton had the book published to complete a strong charitable mission: all the proceeds from the book are used to support various voluntary service programs in New York City, including a local food bank and a youth arts program. Alongside the book, Stanton revealed an installation (装置艺术) at Grand Central Terminal that ran for two weeks in October, featuring more than 150 digital screens showing portraits and stories from the city. It also included an art showcase with photos taken by more than 600 public school students. Stanton called it “a celebration of people”, adding that a special “message wall” allowed visitors to share their own reflections. Stanton told CBS there are three parts to his mission: “To use my work to provide comfort, improve the lives of other people, and create moments of connection.” 4. What originally inspired Stanton to start the Humans of New York project? A. His academic background in history. B. His passion for street photography. C. The sudden job loss and a new life goal. D. The encouragement from his followers. 5. Which of the following best describes the development of the Humans of New York project? A. From a local attempt to a global hit. B. From a personal hobby to a financial tool. C. From a professional study to a public lecture. D. From a written blog to a photographic exhibition. 6. What does the underlined word “proceeds” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Plans. B. Progress. C. Processes. D. Profits. 7. What do we know about Stanton from the installation at Grand Central Terminal? A. He expands his influence from online to offline spaces. B. He values the perspective of the younger generation. C. He focuses entirely on the stories of New York citizens. D. He commercializes his project through various exhibitions. C Severe winters and modern cities make life tough for wild animals, especially when they get lost or wander too far from their natural habitats. Animal sanctuaries (庇护所) are often flooded with animals in desperate need of help, especially in winter — yet a recent rescue at the Suffolk Owl Sanctuary in Eastern England stood out for an unusual reason. This sanctuary, which typically cares for injured owls, received its first-ever overweight owl (猫头鹰). A member of the public found the small, wet bird struggling in a bush and brought it in. A thorough check-up revealed no injuries; the owl couldn’t fly simply because it was overweight — weighing 245 grams, 33% above the normal upper limit for its size. The cause was natural: an unusually warm winter, combined with a sharp four-year population increase of mice, created an “all-you-can-eat buffet” that led the owl to overeat. The sanctuary put the owl on a diet and exercise routine, and it quickly lost weight and regained health. It was eventually released back into the wild, with a video of its smooth flight from a wooden box posted on the sanctuary’s Facebook page. Whether this obesity (肥胖症) case is a strange effect of climate change or a coincidence of mouse population cycles and milder weather remains unclear. However, it emphasizes the importance of protecting wild animals. If you encounter a suffering wild animal, approach with caution—wear gloves and avoid risks, as they may be unused to humans, tending to attack, or carrying diseases. Wild animals struggle to adapt to modern cities, and animal sanctuaries serve as vital safe shelters. Staffed by professionals, these sanctuaries rescue not only injured or sick animals but also those in danger, especially critical in winter when food and shelter are lacking. While some focus on specific species like owls and others on certain regions, all share the same goal: to restore wild animals to their natural state and return them to the wild. 8. Why was the rescue of the owl by the Suffolk Owl Sanctuary considered unusual? A. It was for an owl found struggling in a bush. B. It marked the sanctuary’s first overweight owl case. C. It involved a species rarely seen in that region of England. D. It released an owl back into the wild sooner than expected. 9. What does the author imply by mentioning the video on Facebook? A. The sanctuary has a large number of fans. B. The sanctuary keeps track of the owl in the wild. C. The owl has recovered and returned to nature. D. The public is eager to know the situation of the owl. 10. What message does the author want to convey through the owl case? A. Animal sanctuaries should pay attention to animal obesity. B. Environmental changes can disturb natural animal behavior. C. Wildlife should be kept in sanctuaries for better protection. D. Global warming is the primary threat to all wildlife populations. 11. What is the main purpose of the last paragraph? A. To list the different types of animal sanctuaries. B. To emphasize the essential role of animal sanctuaries. C. To explain the challenges wild animals face in cities. D. To call for more public donations to sanctuaries. D Scientists have made a breakthrough in helping those suffering from visual disorders by placing tiny electronic chips into the back of their eyes. The chips are only 2mm wide, about as thick as a grain of rice. A trial involved 38 patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) (黄斑变性), a condition mostly affecting the elderly and making central vision unclear. Around 600,000 people in the UK have AMD. The trial was conducted at 17 hospitals in five European countries, including the UK. The patients had “dry AMD”, which damages light-detecting cells at the back of the eye. These cells transform light into electrical signals for the brain. When these cells are damaged or destroyed, they cause poor vision, and there is currently no cure for this condition. The tiny “bionic” chips can give people back some sight. Bionic means a man-made object that acts as a body part. The patients get a pair of glasses with a built-in video camera and a small pocket-sized black box that processes the data. When wearing the glasses, the patient looks at an object, for instance, a book. The camera captures the image, sends data to the black box for clarification, and the processed information is then delivered to the chip under the retina (视网膜). The wireless chip sends signals (just like TV remotes do) to the optic nerve (视觉神经), which communicates with the brain. However, patients need time to train their brains to interpret the images. Patients can only see in black and white, but it has significantly improved the lives of those who were treated. Seventy-year-old Sheila Irvine was one of the patients who took part in the trial. She is registered as blind, but now is able to read books and do crosswords. “It is amazing,” she told the BBC. “I am one happy cookie now.” Scientists are also excited. “Blind patients are actually able to have meaningful central vision restoration, which has never been done before,” said Mahi Muqit, an associate professor at University College London. 12. What can be inferred about the “breakthrough” mentioned in the first paragraph? A. It restores partial vision for a specific previously incurable condition. B. It marks the first successful medical application of bionic technology. C. It provides a complete and permanent cure for patients with AMD. D. Its innovation lies in the extremely small size of the electronic chip. 13. What is the main problem caused by “dry AMD”? A. It prevents the eyes from producing tears. B. It makes the patient’s glasses difficult to wear. C. It causes the optic nerve to stop working completely. D. It damages the light-sensitive cells at the back of the eye. 14. How does the bionic chip help patients regain sight? A. By delivering signals to the black box. B. By capturing clear images for the eyes. C. By changing light into electrical signals itself. D. By sending processed signals to the optic nerve. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. A New Cure Discovered for Dry AMD B. A Breakthrough treatment for the Blind C. A Bionic Chip for Partial Vision Restoration D. A Wireless Chip for Instant AMD Sight Recovery 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Handling Awkward School Moments We all encounter days when an ordinary school routine suddenly breaks down.

These small upsets are actually great opportunities to learn how to handle awkward school moments with calmness and confidence. Are you familiar with the following situations? ● ____16____ If your meal partner can’t eat with you for some reason, don’t eat alone. View this as a potential opportunity for social expansion.

He preferred to keep away from the laughter and games of his classmates; the quiet music room was his favorite place. His excellent violin talent had earned him a scholarship, making him focus more on music and spend little time with lively peers. Most days, he devoted himself in musical notes, finding comfort in the peace of music and rarely interacting with members of other clubs. When autumn arrived, a new rule for the annual talent show was announced: each performance must be a group work involving at least three students from different clubs, themed “One Stage We Create”. The winning work would be given prize money. His music teacher, Mr. Davies, encouraged him to form a team, filling Leo with a mix of unease and excitement. “You have a gift, Leo,” Mr. Davies said gently, “but a gift is meant to be shared. Find classmates from the art or literature club who can connect with your music.” Leo hoped to win, as he wanted to use the prize money to make his beloved school more beautiful. Mr. Davies’ words stayed in his mind. Leo was not used to face-to-face invitations, as he seldom spoke to classmates outside of class. School posters with “TOGETHER WE CREATE” were constant reminders of the task ahead. Determined to step out of his music world and work with others to win the prize, he decided to post a notice online to find teammates—a choice that made him feel much more at ease. That night, he took a deep breath and posted on the school website: “Looking for 2 teammates from different clubs for the talent show. I play the violin and wish to combine music with art or literature. Theme: One Stage We Create”. He hesitated for a moment before clicking “send”. 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。 The next afternoon, right after his violin practice, he checked the website eagerly. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When the big day came, Leo stood confidently on stage with his teammates. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 柳州市2026届高三第二次模拟考试 英语 （考试时间：120分钟；满分：150分） 注意事项： 1.请把答案填写在答题卡上，否则答题无效。 2.答卷前，考生务必将密封线内的项目填写清楚，密封线内不要答题。 3.选择题，请用2B铅笔，把答题卡上对应题目选项的信息点涂黑。非选择题，请用0.5mm黑色字迹签字笔在答题卡指定位置作答。 第Ⅰ卷 （选择题） 第一部分：听力 （共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将你的答案转涂到客观题答题卡上。 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.

Now he is celebrating the city where it all began with his fifth book, Dear New York. Stanton grew up in Marietta, Georgia, and studied history at the University of Georgia. After college, he worked in finance in Chicago, Illinois. In 2010, he lost his job and moved to New York City with an idea: to photograph 10,000 people throughout the city and ask them their story. His subjects ranged from a retired teacher to an immigrant (移民) starting a business. It evolved into the series Humans of New York on social media and now has more than 30 million followers worldwide. Over the years, Stanton became a best-selling author of five collections of his photography, beginning with Humans of New York in 2013. His newest book, Dear New York, is filled with hundreds of portraits and stories collected over two years from across the city’s five districts. Stanton had the book published to complete a strong charitable mission: all the proceeds from the book are used to support various voluntary service programs in New York City, including a local food bank and a youth arts program. Alongside the book, Stanton revealed an installation (装置艺术) at Grand Central Terminal that ran for two weeks in October, featuring more than 150 digital screens showing portraits and stories from the city. It also included an art showcase with photos taken by more than 600 public school students. Stanton called it “a celebration of people”, adding that a special “message wall” allowed visitors to share their own reflections. Stanton told CBS there are three parts to his mission: “To use my work to provide comfort, improve the lives of other people, and create moments of connection.” 4. What originally inspired Stanton to start the Humans of New York project? A. His academic background in history. B. His passion for street photography. C. The sudden job loss and a new life goal. D. The encouragement from his followers. 5. Which of the following best describes the development of the Humans of New York project? A. From a local attempt to a global hit. B. From a personal hobby to a financial tool. C. From a professional study to a public lecture. D. From a written blog to a photographic exhibition. 6. What does the underlined word “proceeds” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Plans. B. Progress. C. Processes. D. Profits. 7. What do we know about Stanton from the installation at Grand Central Terminal? A. He expands his influence from online to offline spaces. B. He values the perspective of the younger generation. C. He focuses entirely on the stories of New York citizens. D. He commercializes his project through various exhibitions. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. D 7.

Animal sanctuaries (庇护所) are often flooded with animals in desperate need of help, especially in winter — yet a recent rescue at the Suffolk Owl Sanctuary in Eastern England stood out for an unusual reason. This sanctuary, which typically cares for injured owls, received its first-ever overweight owl (猫头鹰). A member of the public found the small, wet bird struggling in a bush and brought it in. A thorough check-up revealed no injuries; the owl couldn’t fly simply because it was overweight — weighing 245 grams, 33% above the normal upper limit for its size. The cause was natural: an unusually warm winter, combined with a sharp four-year population increase of mice, created an “all-you-can-eat buffet” that led the owl to overeat. The sanctuary put the owl on a diet and exercise routine, and it quickly lost weight and regained health. It was eventually released back into the wild, with a video of its smooth flight from a wooden box posted on the sanctuary’s Facebook page. Whether this obesity (肥胖症) case is a strange effect of climate change or a coincidence of mouse population cycles and milder weather remains unclear. However, it emphasizes the importance of protecting wild animals. If you encounter a suffering wild animal, approach with caution—wear gloves and avoid risks, as they may be unused to humans, tending to attack, or carrying diseases. Wild animals struggle to adapt to modern cities, and animal sanctuaries serve as vital safe shelters. Staffed by professionals, these sanctuaries rescue not only injured or sick animals but also those in danger, especially critical in winter when food and shelter are lacking. While some focus on specific species like owls and others on certain regions, all share the same goal: to restore wild animals to their natural state and return them to the wild. 8. Why was the rescue of the owl by the Suffolk Owl Sanctuary considered unusual? A. It was for an owl found struggling in a bush. B. It marked the sanctuary’s first overweight owl case. C. It involved a species rarely seen in that region of England. D. It released an owl back into the wild sooner than expected. 9. What does the author imply by mentioning the video on Facebook? A. The sanctuary has a large number of fans. B. The sanctuary keeps track of the owl in the wild. C. The owl has recovered and returned to nature. D. The public is eager to know the situation of the owl. 10. What message does the author want to convey through the owl case? A. Animal sanctuaries should pay attention to animal obesity. B. Environmental changes can disturb natural animal behavior. C. Wildlife should be kept in sanctuaries for better protection. D. Global warming is the primary threat to all wildlife populations. 11. What is the main purpose of the last paragraph? A. To list the different types of animal sanctuaries. B. To emphasize the essential role of animal sanctuaries. C. To explain the challenges wild animals face in cities. D. To call for more public donations to sanctuaries. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11.

(原因是自然的：一个异常温暖的冬天，加上四年来老鼠数量的急剧增加，创造了一个“你可以吃的自助餐”，导致猫头鹰吃得过多)”和第四段中“Whether this obesity (肥胖症) case is a strange effect of climate change or a coincidence of mouse population cycles and milder weather remains unclear. However, it emphasizes the importance of protecting wild animals.(目前尚不清楚这只猫头鹰的肥胖症是气候变化的奇怪影响，还是老鼠种群周期与天气转暖的巧合。然而，这强调了保护野生动物的重要性)”可知，作者通过这个案例想传达的信息是，环境变化(无论是气候变化还是猎物周期)可能会干扰动物的自然行为。故选B项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Wild animals struggle to adapt to modern cities, and animal sanctuaries serve as vital safe shelters. Staffed by professionals, these sanctuaries rescue not only injured or sick animals but also those in danger, especially critical in winter when food and shelter are lacking. While some focus on specific species like owls and others on certain regions, all share the same goal: to restore wild animals to their natural state and return them to the wild.(野生动物很难适应现代城市，动物庇护所是重要的安全庇护所。这些庇护所由专业人员组成，不仅救助受伤或生病的动物，还救助那些处于危险中的动物，尤其是在冬季食物和庇护所缺乏的时候。虽然有些庇护所专注于特定的物种，如猫头鹰，而另一些则专注于特定的地区，但它们都有一个共同的目标：让野生动物恢复自然状态，回归野外)”可知，最后一段主要目的是强调动物庇护所在保护野生动物方面的重要作用。故选B项。 D Scientists have made a breakthrough in helping those suffering from visual disorders by placing tiny electronic chips into the back of their eyes. The chips are only 2mm wide, about as thick as a grain of rice. A trial involved 38 patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) (黄斑变性), a condition mostly affecting the elderly and making central vision unclear. Around 600,000 people in the UK have AMD. The trial was conducted at 17 hospitals in five European countries, including the UK. The patients had “dry AMD”, which damages light-detecting cells at the back of the eye. These cells transform light into electrical signals for the brain. When these cells are damaged or destroyed, they cause poor vision, and there is currently no cure for this condition. The tiny “bionic” chips can give people back some sight. Bionic means a man-made object that acts as a body part. The patients get a pair of glasses with a built-in video camera and a small pocket-sized black box that processes the data. When wearing the glasses, the patient looks at an object, for instance, a book. The camera captures the image, sends data to the black box for clarification, and the processed information is then delivered to the chip under the retina (视网膜). The wireless chip sends signals (just like TV remotes do) to the optic nerve (视觉神经), which communicates with the brain. However, patients need time to train their brains to interpret the images. Patients can only see in black and white, but it has significantly improved the lives of those who were treated. Seventy-year-old Sheila Irvine was one of the patients who took part in the trial. She is registered as blind, but now is able to read books and do crosswords. “It is amazing,” she told the BBC. “I am one happy cookie now.” Scientists are also excited. “Blind patients are actually able to have meaningful central vision restoration, which has never been done before,” said Mahi Muqit, an associate professor at University College London. 12. What can be inferred about the “breakthrough” mentioned in the first paragraph? A. It restores partial vision for a specific previously incurable condition. B. It marks the first successful medical application of bionic technology. C. It provides a complete and permanent cure for patients with AMD. D. Its innovation lies in the extremely small size of the electronic chip. 13. What is the main problem caused by “dry AMD”? A. It prevents the eyes from producing tears. B. It makes the patient’s glasses difficult to wear. C. It causes the optic nerve to stop working completely. D. It damages the light-sensitive cells at the back of the eye. 14. How does the bionic chip help patients regain sight? A. By delivering signals to the black box. B. By capturing clear images for the eyes. C. By changing light into electrical signals itself. D. By sending processed signals to the optic nerve. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. A New Cure Discovered for Dry AMD B. A Breakthrough treatment for the Blind C. A Bionic Chip for Partial Vision Restoration D. A Wireless Chip for Instant AMD Sight Recovery 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了科学家通过在患者眼睛后部植入微型电子芯片，帮助患有年龄相关性黄斑变性(AMD)等视觉障碍的人恢复部分视力的突破性治疗方法。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Scientists have made a breakthrough in helping those suffering from visual disorders by placing tiny electronic chips into the back of their eyes.(科学家们取得了一项突破，通过在患者眼睛后部植入微型电子芯片来帮助那些患有视觉障碍的人)”、第二段中“The patients had “dry AMD”, which damages light-detecting cells at the back of the eye. These cells transform light into electrical signals for the brain. When these cells are damaged or destroyed, they cause poor vision, and there is currently no cure for this condition.(患者患有“干性AMD”，这种疾病会损害眼睛后部的光检测细胞。这些细胞将光转化为大脑的电信号。当这些细胞受损或被破坏时，会导致视力下降，目前还没有治愈这种疾病的方法)”和第三段中“The tiny “bionic” chips can give people back some sight.(微小的“仿生”芯片可以让人们恢复一些视力)”可推知，第一段中提到的“突破”是针对一种目前无法治愈的特定疾病(干性AMD)，可以患者恢复了部分视力。故选A项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The patients had “dry AMD”, which damages light-detecting cells at the back of the eye.(患者患有“干性AMD”，这种疾病会损害眼睛后部的光检测细胞)”可知，“干性AMD”导致的主要问题是损害眼睛后部对光敏感的细胞。故选D项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“The wireless chip sends signals (just like TV remotes do) to the optic nerve (视觉神经), which communicates with the brain.(无线芯片向视神经发送信号(就像电视遥控器一样)，视神经与大脑进行交流)”可知，仿生芯片通过将处理后的信号发送到视神经，从而帮助患者恢复视力。故选D项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第一段“Scientists have made a breakthrough in helping those suffering from visual disorders by placing tiny electronic chips into the back of their eyes. The chips are only 2mm wide, about as thick as a grain of rice.(科学家们取得了一项突破，通过在患者眼睛后部植入微型电子芯片来帮助那些患有视觉障碍的人。这些芯片只有2毫米宽，大约和一粒米一样厚)”可知，本文主要介绍了一种用于恢复部分视力的仿生芯片，故C项“用于恢复部分视力的仿生芯片”最适合作为文章标题。故选C项。 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Handling Awkward School Moments We all encounter days when an ordinary school routine suddenly breaks down.

He preferred to keep away from the laughter and games of his classmates; the quiet music room was his favorite place. His excellent violin talent had earned him a scholarship, making him focus more on music and spend little time with lively peers. Most days, he devoted himself in musical notes, finding comfort in the peace of music and rarely interacting with members of other clubs. When autumn arrived, a new rule for the annual talent show was announced: each performance must be a group work involving at least three students from different clubs, themed “One Stage We Create”. The winning work would be given prize money. His music teacher, Mr. Davies, encouraged him to form a team, filling Leo with a mix of unease and excitement. “You have a gift, Leo,” Mr. Davies said gently, “but a gift is meant to be shared. Find classmates from the art or literature club who can connect with your music.” Leo hoped to win, as he wanted to use the prize money to make his beloved school more beautiful. Mr. Davies’ words stayed in his mind. Leo was not used to face-to-face invitations, as he seldom spoke to classmates outside of class. School posters with “TOGETHER WE CREATE” were constant reminders of the task ahead. Determined to step out of his music world and work with others to win the prize, he decided to post a notice online to find teammates—a choice that made him feel much more at ease. That night, he took a deep breath and posted on the school website: “Looking for 2 teammates from different clubs for the talent show. I play the violin and wish to combine music with art or literature. Theme: One Stage We Create”. He hesitated for a moment before clicking “send”. 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。 The next afternoon, right after his violin practice, he checked the website eagerly. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When the big day came, Leo stood confidently on stage with his teammates. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 The next afternoon, right after his violin practice, he checked the website eagerly. His heart raced as he saw two replies. One was from Lila, an art club member who wanted to paint live on stage, inspired by music. The other was from Tom, a literature club student who wrote poems about the school’s hidden corners. Both mentioned wanting to use the prize to add more green spaces to the campus, just like Leo. They met in the music room that evening, and as Leo played a soft melody, Lila sketched a draft of a sunlit school garden while Tom read a poem about growth and connection. For the first time, Leo felt part of something bigger than his violin. When the big day came, Leo stood confidently on stage with his teammates. As his violin strings began to hum, Lila’s brush danced across a large canvas, painting the school’s courtyard blooming with flowers. Tom’s voice rose, reciting his poem about how every student’s small light makes the school warm. The audience was spellbound; when the last note faded, cheers filled the hall. They won first place, and later, their prize money turned the courtyard into a lush garden with benches and a small poetry wall. Leo smiled as he watched classmates laugh among the flowers, knowing he’d not only beautified his school but also found kindred spirits. 【解析】 【导语】本文以校园才艺秀为线索展开，讲述内向的小提琴手Leo为用奖金美化校园，突破自我，在学校网站发帖寻找不同社团的队友搭档参赛的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第二天下午，刚结束小提琴练习，他就急切地查看了网站。”可知，第一段可描写Leo看到回复后与两位不同社团的队友结识，三人因共同美化校园的目标达成共识，一起构思表演内容的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“当重要的日子到来时，Leo和他的队友们自信地站在舞台上。”可知，第二段可描写三人在舞台上的精彩配合，表演赢得观众认可并获奖，最终用奖金实现校园美化心愿，Leo也收获了友谊的故事。 2. 续写线索：查看网站获回复——结识队友达成共识——构思表演内容——舞台默契配合——赢得比赛获奖金——美化校园收获友谊 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①心怦怦跳：race/pound ②鼓舞：inspire/stimulate ③消失：fade/vanish 情绪类 ①被迷住的：spellbound/fascinated/entranced ②欢呼声：cheer/shout of joy 【点睛】[高分句型1] One was from Lila, an art club member who wanted to paint live on stage, inspired by music.(运用了who引导的限制性定语从句和过去分词inspired作状语) [高分句型2] As his violin strings began to hum, Lila’s brush danced across a large canvas, painting the school’s courtyard blooming with flowers.(运用了as引导的时间状语从句和现在分词painting作伴随状语) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
