听力原文 Text 1 W: Max, we’ve just arrived in Luoyang. We should get off and transfer at the next station, Xi’an. M: Oh, right. I almost forgot that this train doesn’t go straight through to Chongqing. Text 2 M: I sold 3 old textbooks for $15 at the school flea market today. W: It’s a good deal. M: Yes. And I got a used schoolbag in great condition for only $6. The market will be open again next Friday. W: Good. I have some spare oil paints. Text 3 W: Hello, can I have lunch delivered to my room? M: Of course. What would you like? W: I’m feeling under the weather, so something light like porridge might help me feel better. M: OK. I’ll have it sent to your room shortly. Text 4 W: Any ideas on how to present the subject of Western art in class? M: Maybe we could get some inspiration from documentaries. W: OK. I remember Mr. Anderson once recommended a few. M: Let’s pick some to watch, and note down some information to use in our slides. Text 5 M: I didn’t expect the weather to clear up last weekend, or I would have gone camping with you. W: Camping alone didn’t sound like much fun, so I practiced for my match instead. M: I’m sure all your hard work will pay off on the tennis court. Text 6 W: We need to finish the report by this Friday. ⑥Can you work overtime tomorrow? M: ⑥I’m afraid I can’t. I have a doctor’s appointment on Wednesday. What about working overtime on Thursday instead? W: That’s OK. ⑦The meeting on Friday is of great significance to our company. Who did you arrange for to go to the airport to pick up the clients on that day? M: ⑦Jessica. She’ll pick up the clients at the airport at 2:00 p.m. W: Perfect. I’ll sort out the data right away so we can dive into the report smoothly with the clients. Text 7 M: ⑧Sophia, I heard you are going to quit. W: Yeah, ⑧I’m returning to my hometown to start a business, selling groceries to nearby villagers. M: ⑧What made you decide to do that? W: ⑧Grocery shopping in my hometown is much harder than in the city. With the younger generation leaving for education and work, many elderly people are left alone. And it’s not easy for them to get groceries. M: ⑩That sounds like a lot of work. Obviously, it’s wiser to stick with your current job. W: It is challenging but worth trying. Right now, I’ve saved enough startup costs and have chosen a location. ⑨My next step is to establish a dependable supply chain. M: ⑩You’d better think twice. Text 8 M: Helen, how was your weekend? W: It was great! I went to that theme park Samuel mentioned. What about you? M: ⑪I volunteered at a Chinese painting exhibition in the city’s art gallery. My tasks were setting up displays—hanging paintings carefully to avoid damage, guiding visitors around the halls, and answering their questions about the artworks. W: I guess you must have met a lot of people there. M: Yes! ⑫I even talked to some foreign guests. They praised me for my clear explanation of the cultural significance of traditional ink paintings. What impressed me most was how much they admired the fine brushwork and poetic themes. W: ⑬Did you learn anything from the experience? M: ⑬Absolutely! My communication skills improved a lot. Text 9 M: It’s been half an hour since our guide Emily went to get tickets for the Round Church. W: This attraction is incredibly popular. She just said in the WeChat group there’s quite a long queue at the ticket office. M: Ah, I see. ⑮So what do you think of the Cambridge tour so far? W: ⑮Before this tour, all I knew about Cambridge was that it’s home to some of the world’s top universities and intellectuals. But this tour really takes me through the history of Cambridge, from the city’s beginnings to its current position as a world-famous seat of learning and culture. That’s quite attractive to me. M: As a photographer, I’m really drawn to the beauty of the grand architecture here. W: ⑯From the stone placed near the bridge at the back of King’s College to Newton’s Apple Tree standing close to the entrance of Trinity College, it feels like everything here is part of history. M: ⑰I’m looking forward to the boat trip on the River Cam this afternoon. W: ⑰Same here. We’ll enjoy the city’s peaceful atmosphere on a boat. Text 10 W: ⑱On a sunny Saturday in late February, Rohan unpacked 10 boxes of children’s books with his family. Rohan, 13, was giving them away. It was part of a charity program he started called Reading Among Ruins, which was part of a larger effort—Together We Rebuild. Just weeks earlier, ⑱⑲wildfires had torn through Los Angeles. More than 16,000 structures were destroyed, including Rohan’s home as well as his beloved book collection. “I was heartbroken,” he said. ⑱“It made me wonder how other kids felt about losing their books.” That question pushed Rohan to take action. “I wanted to help,” he said. And he went all out to get books to kids who were affected by the fires. The program gave away more than 1,000 books to kids in the first month. ⑳Veeren Mehra was one of them. He said he learned a powerful lesson: “If you are in a tough situation, people will be there for you.” A 【答案】21. B 22. A 23.

(eg: a British passport, an Irish passport, ILR, settled status, etc.) (你必须在英国工作——这是最近新增的规定，所以申请时请说明你在英国工作的资格。（例如：英国护照、爱尔兰护照、无限期居留、定居身份等。）)”可知，必须在英国工作，即要有在英国长期居留的资格，这是这份工作的必备条件。故选A项。 23.细节理解题。根据最后一段“By applying for a job listed on CareersinRisk.com you agree to our terms and conditions and privacy policy.

He then worked in London, writing for newspapers and doing some teaching of small groups.(离开那里后，他成为了一名教师，但他在踢足球时受了重伤，这意味着他无法继续。然后他在伦敦工作，为报纸写稿，并给一些小组授课。)”可知，威尔斯开始在伦敦为报纸写稿是因为他在运动中受了重伤，无法继续当老师。故选C。 25.细节理解题。根据第二段“At the time, Wells was married to his second wife and was trying to support both her and her mother. He needed to make money, so he wrote it quite quickly. Although he was never really happy with the finished book, it was a great success and allowed him to continue as a writer.(当时，威尔斯与他的第二任妻子结婚，并试图养活她和她的母亲。他需要赚钱，所以他写得很快。尽管他对这本完成的书从来都不满意，但它取得了巨大的成功，使他能够继续当作家。)”可知，《时间机器》的成功帮助养活了威尔斯的家人。故选D。 26.细节理解题。根据第三段“Nobody had ever described time travel in a machine before, and the words “time machine” entered the English language.(以前从来没有人描述过在机器中进行时间旅行，“时间机器”这个词进入了英语语言。)”可知，《时间机器》与当时的其他书不同之处在于它首次描述了在机器中的时间旅行。故选B。 27.推理判断题。文章第一段介绍了威尔斯早年的生活经历，第二段介绍了威尔斯写作《时间机器》的背景，第三段介绍了《时间机器》的独特之处，第四段介绍了威尔斯后续的科幻作品，由此可知，这篇文章的目的是介绍威尔斯的生活经历和他的作品。故选D。 C 28-31:CADC 28.C词义猜测题。根据第二段”When a human understands and shares the feelings of another person, this is called empathy”. 以及A basic form of empathy, happens when an individual sees someone else displaying an emotion and reacts by displaying the same type of behavior.”可知答案为C。 29.A推理判断题。根据第三段，“They respond to other individuals being frightened... just like us.”以及最后一段 “”Looking at the normal fish’s brains, researchers saw activity in a region similar to the one humans and other mammals use when empathizing with others. “”可知答案选A. 30.D细节理解题。根据文章第四段，第五段，可知答案选D。 31.C标题概括题。根据文章大意可知，答案选D. D 32-35:ACCB 32.A词义猜测题。根据划线词所在句“This brain-inspired AI model can perceive dynamic scenes by simulating how neurons (神经元) make real-time sense of the world. ”可知，此处表示神经元如何实时感知这个世界。由此可推出，该人工智能模型受大脑工作原理的启发，它通过模仿神经元实时感知世界的方式感知动态场景。 33.、C推理判断题。根据第三段：单个图块可能没有意义，但它们组合在一起就能形成动态的完整图像。 34.C细节理解题。根据第五段“Beyond its higher accuracy, MovieNet is more environment-friendly. Conventional AI requires vast amounts of data and energy, but MovieNet compresses (压缩) data like a zipped file, reducing environmental impact. “We’ve also made AI far less demanding,” says Cline.”可知答案选C 35.B 推理判断题。根据最后一段““By designing models that think like living organisms (有机体), we can achieve efficiency levels that aren’t possible with traditional AI,” says Cline, “Biology is a gold mine.”可知答案选B 七选五36．E 37．C 38．A 39．B 40．G 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了在寒冷的冬季也能成为早起者的几个实用技巧：寻求阳光、逐步培养习惯、晚间减压放松等。 36．上文“However, it usually takes a lot of willpower to wake up early on a winter’s day. (然而，在冬天早起通常需要很大的意志力)”指出了冬季早起的困难，提出了问题。E选项“Here are some steps to take to become a morning person on a cold day.

For some people, those first few days from your old routine to a new schedule aren’t safe and hard to bear. In that case, gradually ease into the early-bird life. They should shift (转换) half an hour, wait a few days, shift another half an hour, wait a few days, and then shift another half an hour.(如果你试图一步到位，每天直接按照目标时间起床，那么在几周的适应期内你会感到疲惫不堪。对一些人来说，从旧作息切换到新日程的头几天不仅难熬，还可能存在安全隐患。这种情况下，更稳妥的做法是逐步过渡到早起生活。你可以先调整半小时，适应几天后再调整半小时，如此循序渐进)”详细描述了如何“逐步”调整起床时间，以避免疲劳。A选项“Develop the habit step by step. (逐步培养这个习惯)”准确概括了下文内容，作为本段的小标题，与下文的详细描述完全对应。故选A项。 39．上文“They should shift (转换) half an hour, wait a few days, shift another half an hour, wait a few days, and then shift another half an hour. (你可以先调整半小时，适应几天后再调整半小时，如此循序渐进)”详细描述了逐步调整起床时间的具体步骤。B选项“That’s much easier for people to tolerate (忍受). (这对人们来说更容易忍受)”总结了上文所述方法的好处。句中的“That”指代的就是上文描述的“shift (转换) half an hour, wait a few days...”这种渐进式方法。该选项点明了采用这种方法的原因和优势。故选B项。 40．上文“A continuous bedtime isn’t as important as sticking to the same wake up time every day, but it’s still important to make sure you’re getting enough sleep. (坚持每天同一时间睡觉不如每天同一时间起床重要，但确保有足够的睡眠仍然很重要)”强调了获得充足睡眠的重要性。G选项“Without enough hours of sleep, the mind and body can’t properly recharge (恢复体力). (没有足够的睡眠时间，身心就无法得到适当的恢复)”承接上文，解释了为什么充足的睡眠重要，即睡眠不足会导致身心无法恢复。下文“So you’ll need to inch your bedtime forward as you shift a new schedule. (所以，当你调整到新的作息时，你需要逐渐提前就寝时间)”则是在G选项基础上提出的具体行动。G选项解释了原因，引出下文对策。故选G项。 完型填空 答案：41. B 42. C 43. A 44. C 45. B 46. C 47. D 48. B 49. B 50. D 51. C 52. A 53. A 54. D 55.

Many of the great men in history possess the ability. People with self-control can set clear goals, develop good habits and be responsible for their own life. Self-control is not natural, but can be built up through efforts. There are two things we can do to strengthen our self-control. One is to cultivate a sense of social responsibility, preventing us from doing something against social morality. The other is to know what we really want to get, which can help us resist some distraction and temptation. In brief, it is necessary that we make constant efforts to obtain this ability. One possible version: “Do you mean that every flower has its own beauty?” asked my mother thoughtfully. I nodded without hesitation, as if a second waste could threaten the life of dandelions. “And that is true of people too," she added with her soft voice. “Not everyone can be a rose, and it is also an honor to be a dandelion.” Relieved that my mother had guessed my pain, I took off the mask that I had worn for the whole lunch time and poured out my upset heartily. Having learned what had happened, Mom patted me on the back gently and said, “But you will be a beautiful narrator.” She reminded me of how fluently I could deliver my part at home. It was at that time that I understood that maybe I was more suitable for a role backstage like a narrator. From then on, I practiced my lines heart and soul with my mother at lunch time for weeks. Eventually, the performance that night was a big success. Hearing the thunderous applause, I took pride in my role and firmly believed that even a dandelion had its own beauty. 【分析】本文以事件为线索展开，讲述了作者因在学校一次表演中由于表现不佳遭遇换角而非常沮丧，妈妈借花来开导作者，在妈妈的鼓励下，作者认识到每一个角色包括人和植物都有其出彩之处的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由续写段落第一段首句内容“妈妈若有所思地问作者的意思是不是说每一种花都有自己的美。”可知，第一段可描写作者的回答，妈妈的回应，作者有勇气说出被换角的事实。 ②由续写段落第二段首句内容“听到所发生的事情以后，妈妈温柔地拍了作者的背说她会成为一个很棒的旁白员”可知，第二段可描写作者在妈妈的开导下明白这个道理，坦然接受这个新的角色，并下定决心做好，最后成功做到。 2.续写线索：回答妈妈——妈妈回应——告知实情——妈妈鼓励——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①毫不犹豫地点头：nod without hesitation/agree on it immediately/agree with her instantly ②.取下：take off/remove the mask ③.倾诉：pour out/pour forth ④.理解：understand/realize/see 情绪类 ①.如释重负的：relieved/taking a load off sb’s mind ②.自豪：take pride in/be proud of 【点睛】 [高分句型1].

His parents had a small shop but it was not successful and closed when he was thirteen. He worked at different time in a clothes shop and a chemist’s. He always read a lot and later managed to get a place at a science college. After he left there he became a teacher, but he was badly hurt while playing football and this meant that he could not continue. He then worked in London, writing for newspapers and doing some teaching of small groups. None of this made him much money. The Time Machine was his first fictional work. It appeared in weekly parts in a magazine in 1894 and as a book the following year. At the time, Wells was married to his second wife and was trying to support both her and her mother. He needed to make money, so he wrote it quite quickly. Although he was never really happy with the finished book, it was a great success and allowed him to continue as a writer. It is not easy for us to understand how different this book was from others of the time. It is the first real science fiction book. It introduces the readers to the idea of time as the fourth dimension, with the three dimensions of space ten years before Einstein made it part of scientific thinking. Wells also describes a simple mechanical answer to the problem of time travel — a time machine. Nobody had ever described time travel in a machine before, and the words “time machine” entered the English language. After the great success of this book, Wells wrote more science fiction. His most famous books are The Island of Dr Moreau (1896), The Invisible Man (1897), The War of the Worlds (1898) and The First Men in the Moon (1901). All of them have been filmed, some more than once. H.G.Wells died in London in 1946. 24. Why did Wells begin to write for newspapers in London? A. He wanted to make more money. B. His second wife asked him to do so. C. He was seriously injured in sport. D. He was never happy with his former job. 25. What do we know about The Time Machine? A. It was Wells’ most famous work. B. It first appeared as a book. C. Wells was very satisfied with it. D. Its success helped to support Wells’ family. 26. How was The Time Machine different from other books of the time? A. It was the first fiction book in the world. B. It first described time travel in a machine. C. Readers felt it easier to read and understand. D. It introduced the idea of four-dimensional space. 27. What is the purpose of the passage? A. To describe the plot of The Time Machine. B. To convince readers that Wells was a good writer. C. To illustrate the great and famous works of Wells. D. To introduce Wells’ life experiences and his works. C For centuries, people thought that fish did not feel pain or emotions. Now research has shown that fish not only have feelings but can also sense one another’s moods. When a human understands and shares the feelings of another person, this is called empathy. Scientists have found that a chemical in the brain called oxytocin is involved in our ability toconnect with others in this way. A basic form of empathy, known as emotional contagion, happens when an individual sees someone else displaying an emotion (such as happiness or fear) and reacts by displaying the same type of behavior. An international team of researchers tested zebrafish with a series of experiments. First, they placed the fish in two separate tanks and gave one group a substance that caused them to act fearful — either freezing or swimming irregularly. Even though the fish in the nearby tank had not touched the substance, they also began to freeze in fear. “They respond to other individuals being frightened... just like us.” Ibukun Akinrinade, a co-author of the study, told the Associated Press. The scientists tried the experiment with fish that had been modified (调整；修改）so their brains would not produce oxytocin. These fish were much less likely to act anxious when they saw other fish showing fear. If researchers gave them an injection of oxytocin, their ability to empathize returned. Finally, researchers played videos of fearful fish on one side of the tank and relaxed fish on the other side. Normal fish moved closer to the side that showed the fearful fish, which might have been an attempt to comfort them. The modified fish did not move toward either side. Looking at the normal fish’s brains, researchers saw activity in a region similar to the one humans and other mammals use when empathizing with others. This could mean that the abilit to have empathy developed more than 350 million years ago, when fish and mammals shared a common ancestor. Next, researchers want to study whether fish also transfer positive emotions to one another. 28.The phrase “emotional contagion” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ________. A. the ability to control one’s own emotions when others are emotional B. the tendency to hide one’s true feelings to avoid affecting others C. the process of sharing and reflecting others’ emotions unconsciously D. the capacity to understand the root cause of others’ emotions 29. What is Ibukun Akinrinade’s view on fish empathy? A. The emotional response of fish is comparable to that of humans. B. Fish empathy is limited to negative emotions like fear. C. Zebrafish are the only fish species capable of empathy. D. Fish empathy is stronger than that of humans and mammals. 30. What did the researchers find about the modified zebrafish? A. They could still sense fear in other fish without oxytocin. B. They showed increased anxiety when injected with oxytocin. C. They moved closer to fearful fish to comfort them intentionally. D. They failed to respond to videos of either fearful or relaxed fish. 31.What can be the best title of the text? A. From Fear to Comfort: The Social Lives of Fish B. The Ancient Roots of Empathy: Evidence from Fish C. More Than Feelings: How Fish Share Emotions D. A New Discovery: The Emotional World of Zebrafish D Imagine an artificial intelligence model that can watch and understand moving images like you and me. Now, scientists have made this a reality by creating MovieNet: an innovative AI that processes videos much like how our brains interpret real-life scenes. This brain-inspired AI model can perceive dynamic scenes by simulating how neurons (神经元)make real-time sense of the world. While conventional AI excels at still image recognition, MovieNet is designed to understand complex, dynamic scenes, allowing it to recognize tiny changes over time. To create MovieNet, Hollis Cline, senior author of the study, examined how animals’ brains process real-world scenes. Specifically, he studied how tadpoles’ (蝌蚪的) neurons respond to moving stimuli. Tadpoles’ neurons process these visual inputs like solving puzzle pieces: each piece alone may not make sense, but together they form a complete image in motion. Different neurons process various “puzzle pieces” of a real-life moving image, which the brain then combines to form a continuous scene. Using this understanding, the researchers trained MovieNet to process video clips by identifying small visual signals, allowing it to distinguish between small changes in scenes. In testing, MovieNet achieved 82.3% accuracy, outperforming trained human observers by 18% and doing much better than existing AI models. Beyond its higher accuracy, MovieNet is more environment-friendly. Conventional AI requires vast amounts of data and energy, but MovieNet compresses (压缩) data like a zipped file, reducing environmental impact. “We’ve also made AI far less demanding,” says Cline. MovieNet could also transform medicine. It might help detect early signs of diseases by tracking small movement changes that are difficult for human eyes to detect. Looking ahead, the team plans to improve MovieNet’s ability to adapt to different environments and enhance its potential applications. “By designing models that think like living organisms (有机体), we can achieve efficiency levels that aren’t possible with traditional AI,” says Cline, “Biology is a gold mine.” 32.What does the underlined word “simulating” mean in Paragraph 2? A.Copying B.Inspiring C.Demonstrating D.Recognizing 33.MovieNet is trained ________. A. to increase visual inputs. B. to feed on information pieces. C. to combine dynamic images. D. to look into tadpoles’ neurons. 34. According to paragraph 5, what is an advantage of MovieNet? A. Its powerful data storage. B. Its control of medical diseases. C. Its low energy consumption. D. Its improvement on drug effects. 35. What can be concluded from Cline’s words in the last paragraph? A. Biology brings us financial profits. B. Drawing inspiration from biology is promising. C. Living organisms can outperform AI. D. AI can assist in biological development. 第2节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） How to become a morning person Everyone knows that early to bed and early to rise is good for your health. Keeping enough sleep, people can make themselves refreshed and dynamic. However, it usually takes a lot of willpower to wake up early on a winter’s day. 36 . With all these tips, you’re not afraid of getting up early on a freezing winter.

Our lunchtime when I was in the third grade will stay with me always. I had been picked to be the princess in the school playand for weeks my mother had painstakingly practiced my lines（台词）with me. But no matter how easily I delivered them at home, as soon as I stepped on stage, every word disappeared from my head. Finally, my teacher took me aside. She explained patiently that she needed a narrator (叙述者，旁白员) and had written a narrator’s part to the play, and asked me to play the role of the narrator. Her words, kindly delivered, still hurt me especially when I saw my part go to another girl. I didn’t tell mother what had happened when I went home for lunch that day. But she sensed my upset, and instead of suggesting we practice my lines, she asked if I wanted to walk in the yard. It was a lovely spring day and the rose vine（藤）was turning green. Under the huge trees, we could see yellow dandelions（蒲 公 英） appearing unexpectedly through the grass in bunches（簇，串）, as if a painter had touched our landscape with small amounts of gold. I watched my mother casually bend down by one of the bushes. “I think I’m going to dig up all these weeds,” she said, pulling a blossom up by all its roots. “From now on, we’ll only have roses in this garden.” I immediately argued, “But I like dandelions. All flowers are beautiful — even dandelions.” 注意： 1. 续写词数应为 150 左右： 2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已经为你写好。 Paragraph 1： “Do you mean that every flower has its own beauty?”asked my mother thoughtfully. ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2： Having learned what had happened, Mom patted me on the back gently and said,“But you will be a beautiful narrator.” ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ 第 1 页 共 11 页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $高二年级英语学科期末模拟定时检测 姓名： 班级： 考号： 准考证号 0 条形码粘贴处 [0] [0] [0] [0] 07 L0] L0] 07 L0] [0] [0] [0] [1] [1] 1] 1] L1] 1 [1] [2] [2] [27 L2] [2] [2] [2] [2] [27 [27 [2] [2] [27 [27 [3] [3] 3] 3] 3] [3][3] [3] [3] [3] [3] C3] 3] C37 注意：1.答题前将个人信息填写清楚：2.客观题答题修改时用橡皮擦干净 ；3.主观题必须使用黑色签字笔书写：4.请在对应答题区作答，超出书写无 [4幻 [4幻 [4幻 L4] 4[4幻[4幻 [4 [40 [40 [4幻 C4 [4] [4] 效。 [5] [5] [5] [5] L5] C5][5] [5] [5] [5] C57 [5] [5] [5] [6] [6] [6] [6] [6] [6]C6] [6] [6] [6] C6] [6] C67 [6] 填涂样 正确填涂■ [7] [7] [7] [7] 7 [7 [7 [73 「77 [71 [7] Γ7 C7 [7] 错误填涂☑☒工可 缺考标记☐ [8] [8] [8] [8] [8] [8] [8] [8] [8] [8] C8] [8] L8] [9] [9] [9] 9] L9] L9] 9 9] 97 9] 9 9 9] [9] 选择题 1 CA]LB]Lc]LD] 6 CA]B]Lc]D] 11 CA]B]c]D] 16 CA]B]Lc]D] 21 CA]B]Lc]D] 2 CA][B]Cc CD 7 CA]CB]Cc]CD 12A]B][C]D] 17 CA]CB]Cc CD 22[A]B][C]D] 3 CA]CB]Lc]CD] 8 CA]DB]Lc]CD] 13[A]B][C]D] 18[A]B][C]D] 23[A]B][C][D] 4 CA]CB]Cc CD 9 CA]B]c]D 14CA][B][C]D] 19 CA]CB]Cc]CD 24CA]B][C][D] 5 CA]LB]CC]LDT 10 CA][B]CC]DT 15 CA][B]CCTD] 20 CA][B]Cc]LD] 25 CA]LB]CCT LD] 26[A][B][C][D] 31[A][B][C][D] 36CA]B][C][D] 41CA][B][C][D] 46 CA]B]Cc]CD 27 CA]CB]Cc]CD] 32 CA]B]Cc]D] 37 CA]LB]Cc]CD] 42 CA]DB]Cc]DD] 47 CA]CB]Cc]D] 28[A]B][C]D] 33CA][B][C]D] 38 CA][B]Cc]CD] 43 CA]CB]Cc]CD] 48 CA]CB]Cc]CD] 29A][B][C]D] 34[A][B][C]D] 39[A]B][C]D] 44[A]B][C]D] 49A][B][C]D] 30 CA]CB]Cc]CD] 35 CA]CB]Cc CD] 40CA][B][C]D] 45 CA]CB]Cc CD] 50 CA]CB]Cc CD] 51[A]B][C]D] 52[A]B][C]D] 53[A][B][C]D] 54CA][B][C]D] 55 CA]CB]Cc]CD 语法填空 56 57 58 59 60 62 63 64 65 ■ 应用文 ■ 读后续写 Do you mean that every flower has its own beauty?asked my mother thoughtfully Having learned what had happened,Mom patted me on the back gently and said, "But you will be a beautiful narrator." ■ a口 请勿在此区域作答 ▣ ■
