The paddle (桨) cuts through the water as Paralympian athlete Curtis McGrath pushes his canoe (皮划艇) forward. With each strong move, a quick flash of green and yellow Aboriginal art can be seen on the paddle — the special design for Australia’s Paralympic team. For McGrath, this pattern, called “The Journey”, carries deep meaning. It matches his own story, as he found strength in sports after losing his legs. It seems symbolic of the idea that talking can support recovering.
Many people find it difficult to talk about serious illness or injury. Serious injuries, like McGrath’s, come with a complex range of emotions including anger, denial, and depression. But sharing such emotions and talking about injuries can help people to manage them.
“For me, to have a good support network around me helped me get through those tough times,” McGrath said during an interview in 2018. Understandably, many people with serious injuries find it easier to talk with others going through the same or a similar experience. This can bring a fuller level of understanding that helps people live with their injury on practical and emotional levels.
“Six months after I got hurt, I got to see people who’d been injured doing things that I didn’t think were possible,” says McGrath. Inspired, he tried a few sports before finding his passion for paracanoe that he took to the Invictus Games in London, 2014. His achievements in sports have seen him win multiple gold medals at the Paralympic Games and World Championships.
McGrath has become a champion for people with a disability, and a motivational speaker. And he’s not afraid to openly discuss his suffering. “It’s important to remember that the hard times never last forever,” advises McGrath. “There’s someone out there that’s going through something similar. It’s your responsibility to reach out to talk and to see what you could be.”
4. Why does the author mention “The Journey” on McGrath’s paddle?
A. To present his personal recovery story.
B. To highlight the importance of team spirit.
C. To show his pride as a Paralympian athlete.
D. To explain the rules of Paralympic canoe design.
5. How can sharing emotions about serious injuries benefit people?
A. It reduces their dependence on others. B. It saves them the cost of medical care.
C. It increases their tolerance of injuries. D. It helps them get professional guidance.
6. What does McGrath advise people to do?
A. Contain emotions. B. Take responsibility.
C. Seek connection. D. Develop hobbies.
7. Which of the following can best describe Curtis McGrath?
A. Curious and passionate. B. Strict and influential.
C. Strong and independent. D. Open-hearted and inspiring.
C
Children are born with the curiosity to explore. Yet over time they are becoming less curious about science. Why? This loss of interest may be partly the result of language cues (提示) children hear. And these cues don’t come just from parents; they can also come from school teachers who treat science as an identity rather than actions.
When talking to children, many adults might say things like “Let’s be scientists today!” or “You’re such a good scientist!”. But this kind of identity-focused language, which focuses on science as an identity rather than activities and actions that people do, can be demoralizing for young children. One study showed that children as young as four, especially girls, kept their interest longer when their cue to participate in science activities was “Let’s do science” rather than “Let’s be scientists.”
One possibility is that when thinking of a scientist, children might picture a white man. If they don’t share that identity, they lose interest in an activity designed “for scientists.” This stereotypical (刻板印象的) belief that science is reserved for only certain-kinds of people emerges surprisingly early. By the first grade, when asked to draw a scientist, children tend to draw a white man.
The good news is that language cues can also be directed to promote engagement with science. Describing science as actions that we take, for example, seems to protect young children’s interest in science over time. But it’s also true that teenagers are actively trying on and ultimately forming different identities for themselves. So in contrast to its demoralizing effects on young children, identity-focused language may help teens stay interested in science. In another study, cueing a future identity based on science (such as “scientist” or “doctor”) motivated middle schoolers to do more homework and was associated with higher grades.
Consequently, adults had better use different language cues for children of different age groups to maintain their curiosity about science.
8. What does the underlined word “demoralizing” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Inappropriate. B. Impolite. C. Unconvincing. D. Discouraging.
9. Why was action-focused language especially effective to young girls?
A. Because it avoids identity conflict in girls’ mind.
B. Because stereotypical belief is reserved for girls.
C. Because it enhances girls’ engagement in science.
D. Because it shows the activity is designed for girls.
10. What may be the author’s suggestion for parents and teachers?
A. To treat language as cues. B. To use identity-focused language.
C. To adopt flexible strategies. D. To help teenagers form identities.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Why Is Action Better than Identity? B. How Do Parents Raise Young Scientists?
C. How Does Age Affect Science Learning? D. What Affects Children’s Interest in Science?
D
Natural disasters like earthquakes usually cause interruptions to communications, posing great challenges to rescue efforts. So in 2008, China launched the Tiantong Project to set up a satellite communication system accessible to the public.
Now the project has led to major advances in satellite communication and mobile phone development. In 2021 the Tiantong satellites formed a network covering the entire Asia-Pacific region. In August, 2023, Huawei released the world’s first smartphone that supported satellite calls, by directly connecting to the Tiantong satellites. On December 18, 2023, a 6.2-magnitude earthquake hit Gansu, causing widespread communication interruptions. Thanks to the Tiantong satellites, many of those trapped in the disaster were able to connect with the outside world through the satellite calling function on their smartphones.
Direct satellite connectivity for mobile phones was previously believed to be impossible. To reach a small smartphone, the satellite needs to produce a very powerful signal. When a large number of different high-power signals flood the satellite’s transmitting antenna(传输天线)at the same time, they can lower the quality of satellite calls and, in severe cases, cause the entire system to collapse. Since the 1970s, nearly all the previous commercial communication satellite networks have experienced such major failures. This issue, known as PIM, was once a bottleneck for further development of satellite communication technology.
To solve this problem, Chinese physicists have established a physical model that can predict the occurrence of PIM with incredible accuracy. Based on this work, Chinese scientists developed the world’s first PIM simulation(模拟)software, which, in turn, helped Chinese engineers develop a series of effective technologies against PIM. These key scientific and technological breakthroughs enable the Tiantong satellites to transmit and receive electromagnetic(电磁)waves in 800 different frequency bands and, meanwhile, resist daily temperature changes of up to 160°C.
Solving the PIM problem in such tough working conditions is extremely challenging. The success of Tiantong exhibits the hard work of the project team and marks China’s leading position in this technical field around the globe.
12. What was probably the original intention of the Tiantong Project?
A. To promote mobile phone development.
B. To build a natural disaster rescue system.
C. To develop commercial satellite technology.
D. To build an emergency communication system.
13. What is the primary cause of PIM?
A. Collapse of the systems. B. Overload of strong signals.
C. Lack of physical models. D. Equipment of low qualities.
14. What does the author want to prove by mentioning previous satellite networks?
A. The risk of satellite networks. B. The necessity of solving PIM.
C. The fault of satellite networks. D. The difficulty of solving PIM.
15. What plays a key role in the success of the Chinese team?
A. Their close cooperation. B. The powerful satellites.
C. Their accurate prediction. D. The PIM software model.

“Good morning, Miss Bolz.” A friendly man in his early twenties greeted me as he placed my breakfast on the table next to my bed. I struggled to sit up, but after being hospitalized several days for severe breathing difficulties, I was still very weak.
Now, I was in a nursing home, and I hated staying here. The two elderly women who were sharing my room kept me up every night with low, painful sounds and screams. My nerves were shot, and I felt really tired from not sleeping.
Fortunately, there was one positive part about my stay at the nursing home: The food was good. Since I needed to be on medications that had a side effect of stimulating my appetite, I was thankful to have three tasty meals each day.
“You gave me oatmeal (燕麦粥) again. Thanks for remembering that it’s my favorite breakfast!” I told the young man who had brought my breakfast. “Well, uh, thanks,” he replied, looking surprised. “Actually, we cook oatmeal for all the patients every morning, but nobody has ever told me before that they like it. Everyone on the kitchen staff works very hard to prepare the meals, so it’s nice to hear praise for a change. Usually, the patients are complaining about the food.”
While the young man delivered breakfasts to the two other women in the room, I wondered what I could do to encourage him and his coworkers. Reaching for a pen on my nightstand, I quickly wrote a nice note about the food on the back of the breakfast menu and waved it in the air. “Is that for me?” the man asked with a laugh. He read my note and smiled widely. Then he promised to show my comments to everyone in the kitchen before hurrying away to deliver more breakfasts.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;

The paddle (桨) cuts through the water as Paralympian athlete Curtis McGrath pushes his canoe (皮划艇) forward. With each strong move, a quick flash of green and yellow Aboriginal art can be seen on the paddle — the special design for Australia’s Paralympic team. For McGrath, this pattern, called “The Journey”, carries deep meaning. It matches his own story, as he found strength in sports after losing his legs. It seems symbolic of the idea that talking can support recovering.
Many people find it difficult to talk about serious illness or injury. Serious injuries, like McGrath’s, come with a complex range of emotions including anger, denial, and depression. But sharing such emotions and talking about injuries can help people to manage them.
“For me, to have a good support network around me helped me get through those tough times,” McGrath said during an interview in 2018. Understandably, many people with serious injuries find it easier to talk with others going through the same or a similar experience. This can bring a fuller level of understanding that helps people live with their injury on practical and emotional levels.
“Six months after I got hurt, I got to see people who’d been injured doing things that I didn’t think were possible,” says McGrath. Inspired, he tried a few sports before finding his passion for paracanoe that he took to the Invictus Games in London, 2014. His achievements in sports have seen him win multiple gold medals at the Paralympic Games and World Championships.
McGrath has become a champion for people with a disability, and a motivational speaker. And he’s not afraid to openly discuss his suffering. “It’s important to remember that the hard times never last forever,” advises McGrath. “There’s someone out there that’s going through something similar. It’s your responsibility to reach out to talk and to see what you could be.”
4. Why does the author mention “The Journey” on McGrath’s paddle?
A. To present his personal recovery story.
B. To highlight the importance of team spirit.
C. To show his pride as a Paralympian athlete.
D. To explain the rules of Paralympic canoe design.
5. How can sharing emotions about serious injuries benefit people?
A. It reduces their dependence on others. B. It saves them the cost of medical care.
C. It increases their tolerance of injuries. D. It helps them get professional guidance.
6. What does McGrath advise people to do?
A. Contain emotions. B. Take responsibility.
C. Seek connection. D. Develop hobbies.
7. Which of the following can best describe Curtis McGrath?
A. Curious and passionate. B. Strict and influential.
C. Strong and independent. D. Open-hearted and inspiring.
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. C 7. D
【解析】

细节理解题。根据第二段中“But sharing such emotions and talking about injuries can help people to manage them. (但是分享这些情绪和谈论受伤可以帮助人们应对它们)”以及第三段中“This can bring a fuller level of understanding that helps people live with their injury on practical and emotional levels. (这能带来更全面的理解,帮助人们在实际层面和情感层面应对自己的伤痛)”可知,分享伤病相关的情绪能帮助人们更好地接纳伤病,提高对伤病的承受力。故选C。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中““It’s important to remember that the hard times never last forever,” advises McGrath. “There’s someone out there that’s going through something similar. It’s your responsibility to reach out to talk and to see what you could be.” (“重要的是要记住,困难时期绝不会永远持续下去,”McGrath建议道。“总会有人正在经历类似的事情。主动去交流并探寻自己能成为什么样的人,这是你的责任。”)”可知,McGrath建议人们主动去联系他人,分享自己的经历和感受。故选C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“McGrath has become a champion for people with a disability, and a motivational speaker. And he’s not afraid to openly discuss his suffering. (McGrath已经成为残疾人的拥护者和励志演说家。而且他不害怕公开谈论自己的痛苦)”可知,McGrath是一个心胸开阔、鼓舞人心的人,他敢于公开谈论自己的痛苦,并激励他人积极面对困难。故选D。

Children are born with the curiosity to explore. Yet over time they are becoming less curious about science. Why? This loss of interest may be partly the result of language cues (提示) children hear. And these cues don’t come just from parents; they can also come from school teachers who treat science as an identity rather than actions.
When talking to children, many adults might say things like “Let’s be scientists today!” or “You’re such a good scientist!”. But this kind of identity-focused language, which focuses on science as an identity rather than activities and actions that people do, can be demoralizing for young children. One study showed that children as young as four, especially girls, kept their interest longer when their cue to participate in science activities was “Let’s do science” rather than “Let’s be scientists.”
One possibility is that when thinking of a scientist, children might picture a white man. If they don’t share that identity, they lose interest in an activity designed “for scientists.” This stereotypical (刻板印象的) belief that science is reserved for only certain-kinds of people emerges surprisingly early. By the first grade, when asked to draw a scientist, children tend to draw a white man.
The good news is that language cues can also be directed to promote engagement with science. Describing science as actions that we take, for example, seems to protect young children’s interest in science over time. But it’s also true that teenagers are actively trying on and ultimately forming different identities for themselves. So in contrast to its demoralizing effects on young children, identity-focused language may help teens stay interested in science. In another study, cueing a future identity based on science (such as “scientist” or “doctor”) motivated middle schoolers to do more homework and was associated with higher grades.
Consequently, adults had better use different language cues for children of different age groups to maintain their curiosity about science.
8. What does the underlined word “demoralizing” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Inappropriate. B. Impolite. C. Unconvincing. D. Discouraging.
9. Why was action-focused language especially effective to young girls?
A. Because it avoids identity conflict in girls’ mind.
B. Because stereotypical belief is reserved for girls.
C. Because it enhances girls’ engagement in science.
D. Because it shows the activity is designed for girls.
10. What may be the author’s suggestion for parents and teachers?
A. To treat language as cues. B. To use identity-focused language.
C. To adopt flexible strategies. D. To help teenagers form identities.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Why Is Action Better than Identity? B. How Do Parents Raise Young Scientists?
C. How Does Age Affect Science Learning? D. What Affects Children’s Interest in Science?
【答案】8. D 9. A 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍儿童对科学的好奇心下降的原因,以及不同语言提示对不同年龄段儿童科学兴趣的影响,并给出相应建议。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中的“But this kind of identity-focused language, which focuses on science as an identity rather than activities and actions that people do, can be demoralizing for young children. One study showed that children as young as four, especially girls, kept their interest longer when their cue to participate in science activities was “Let’s do science” rather than “Let’s be scientists.”(但这种以身份为核心的语言,将科学视为一种身份,而非人们所做的活动和行动,可能会对幼儿造成demoralizing影响。一项研究表明,4岁的孩子,尤其是女孩,当参与科学活动的提示是“让我们做科学”而不是“让我们成为科学家”时,能保持更长时间的兴趣。)”可知,以身份为核心的语言会让幼儿难以保持兴趣,因此“demoralizing”意为“令人气馁的”。故选D项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“One possibility is that when thinking of a scientist, children might picture a white man. If they don’t share that identity, they lose interest in an activity designed “for scientists.”(一种可能性是,当想到科学家时,孩子们可能会想到一个白人男性。如果他们没有这种身份认同,就会对为“科学家”设计的活动失去兴趣。)”以及第二段中行动导向语言让幼儿(尤其女孩)保持兴趣的研究结果可知,行动导向语言对女孩特别有效,是因为它避免了女孩心中的身份冲突。故选A项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Consequently, adults had better use different language cues for children of different age groups to maintain their curiosity about science.(因此,成年人最好对不同年龄段的孩子使用不同的语言提示,以保持他们对科学的好奇心。)”可知,作者建议家长和老师采用灵活的策略,针对不同年龄段儿童使用不同语言提示。故选C项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,第一段提出儿童对科学好奇心下降的问题及部分原因(语言提示),第二段对比不同语言提示对幼儿的影响,第三段解释身份导向语言产生负面影响的原因,第四段说明语言提示对青少年的积极影响,最后给出针对不同年龄段儿童使用不同语言提示的建议,由此可知,全文围绕“什么影响儿童对科学的兴趣”展开,因此D项“什么影响儿童对科学的兴趣?”适合作为标题。故选D项。
D
Natural disasters like earthquakes usually cause interruptions to communications, posing great challenges to rescue efforts. So in 2008, China launched the Tiantong Project to set up a satellite communication system accessible to the public.
Now the project has led to major advances in satellite communication and mobile phone development. In 2021 the Tiantong satellites formed a network covering the entire Asia-Pacific region. In August, 2023, Huawei released the world’s first smartphone that supported satellite calls, by directly connecting to the Tiantong satellites. On December 18, 2023, a 6.2-magnitude earthquake hit Gansu, causing widespread communication interruptions. Thanks to the Tiantong satellites, many of those trapped in the disaster were able to connect with the outside world through the satellite calling function on their smartphones.
Direct satellite connectivity for mobile phones was previously believed to be impossible. To reach a small smartphone, the satellite needs to produce a very powerful signal. When a large number of different high-power signals flood the satellite’s transmitting antenna(传输天线)at the same time, they can lower the quality of satellite calls and, in severe cases, cause the entire system to collapse. Since the 1970s, nearly all the previous commercial communication satellite networks have experienced such major failures. This issue, known as PIM, was once a bottleneck for further development of satellite communication technology.
To solve this problem, Chinese physicists have established a physical model that can predict the occurrence of PIM with incredible accuracy. Based on this work, Chinese scientists developed the world’s first PIM simulation(模拟)software, which, in turn, helped Chinese engineers develop a series of effective technologies against PIM. These key scientific and technological breakthroughs enable the Tiantong satellites to transmit and receive electromagnetic(电磁)waves in 800 different frequency bands and, meanwhile, resist daily temperature changes of up to 160°C.
Solving the PIM problem in such tough working conditions is extremely challenging. The success of Tiantong exhibits the hard work of the project team and marks China’s leading position in this technical field around the globe.
12. What was probably the original intention of the Tiantong Project?
A. To promote mobile phone development.
B. To build a natural disaster rescue system.
C. To develop commercial satellite technology.
D. To build an emergency communication system.
13. What is the primary cause of PIM?
A. Collapse of the systems. B. Overload of strong signals.
C. Lack of physical models. D. Equipment of low qualities.
14. What does the author want to prove by mentioning previous satellite networks?
A. The risk of satellite networks. B. The necessity of solving PIM.
C. The fault of satellite networks. D. The difficulty of solving PIM.
15. What plays a key role in the success of the Chinese team?
A. Their close cooperation. B. The powerful satellites.
C. Their accurate prediction. D. The PIM software model.

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了袁隆平历经努力攻克技术难题,于1974年培育出首个可用于农业种植的杂交水稻,该品种大幅提升了农民的粮食产量。
【41题详解】
考查名词。句意:杂交品种一个特点是,它们的产量通常比常规作物更高。前一句介绍了杂交品种的定义,本句阐述杂交品种的一个属性,结合句意“特点、特征”可知,此处需填名词characteristic,由One修饰,用单数形式。故填characteristic。
【42题详解】

【44题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:经过不懈的努力,袁隆平攻克了巨大的技术难关,于1974年培育出首个可用于农业种植的杂交水稻。空处引导定语从句,先行词是the first hybrid rice,先行词前有序数词the first修饰,且定语从句中缺少主语,此时需用关系代词that引导从句。故填that。
【45题详解】
考查名词。句意:这种杂交水稻让农民的产量大幅提升。文章首句提及杂交品种“attain a higher yield (产量更高)”,本句承接前文,说明袁隆平培育的杂交水稻的实际作用,yield与output均表示“产量”,结合句意可知此处填名词output,为不可数名词,作宾语。故填output。
Passage 2
根据课文内容,在空白处填入所缺的单词。

【导语】这是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了袁隆平践行梦想的能力以及研发水稻的事迹。
【46题详解】
考查主语从句引导词。句意:袁隆平最让人印象深刻的是他始终能够实现自己的梦想。前半句为句子的主语部分,从句中缺少主语且指代“让人印象深刻的事情”,需用连接代词What引导主语从句。故填What。
【47题详解】
考查名词。句意:很久以前,他设想水稻长得像高粱一样高,稻穗像扫帚一样大,每粒稻谷像花生一样饱满。前文依次描述水稻的株高、稻穗的大小,本句承接前文描述水稻的籽粒,结合句意“谷物、籽粒”可知,需填名词grain,each后接单数名词。故填grain。
【48题详解】
考查名词。句意:他后来关于“海水稻”的设想也成为了现实,还可能为中国开拓出近一百万平方千米可种植水稻的盐碱地。前文提及袁隆平曾设想高产水稻的模样,本句讲述其对于“海水稻”的相关想法,结合前文的envisioned可知,此处需填名词vision表示“设想、愿景”,作主语。故填vision。
49题详解】
考查名词。句意:他后来关于“海水稻”的设想也成为了现实,还可能为中国开拓出近一百万平方千米可种植水稻的盐碱地。前文提及袁隆平成功培育出高产水稻,本句承接上文说明其海水稻设想的发展结果,“become a reality”为固定搭配,意为“成为现实”,符合前后文句意逻辑。故填reality。
【50题详解】
考查形容词。句意:他后来关于“海水稻”的设想也成为了现实,还可能为中国开拓出近一百万平方千米可种植水稻的盐碱地。前文提及的“seawater rice (海水稻)”的特性是能在含盐的土地中生长,本句修饰名词land,需用形容词salty表示“含盐的、咸的”,salty land即“盐碱地”。故填salty。

This is probably not an authentic Chinese ____55____, however, so it cannot tell us much about the Chinese.
【答案】51. Prior
52. to 53. consists
54. peppers
55. recipe
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章介绍了文化与饮食之间的联系。
【51题详解】
考查固定短语。句意:在来中国之前,我唯一一次接触中国烹饪经历是在美国,那里的中餐经过了改造,以适应美国人的口味。根据空格后“我唯一一次接触中国烹饪的经历是在美国”可知,此处指的是“来中国之前”;“在……之前”为固定短语prior to…;位于句首,首字母需大写。故填Prior。
【52题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:在来中国之前,我唯一一次接触中国烹饪的经历是在美国,那里的中餐经过了改造,以适应美国人的口味。空处表“为了”,用不定式作目的状语,空处用不定式符号to。故填to。
【53题详解】
考查动词短语和时态。句意:例如,美国最受欢迎的中国菜是左宗棠鸡,这道菜是用炸鸡蘸上甜酱,用红辣椒调味。分析句子结构可知,空格处需要填入谓语动词;根据后文“fried chicken covered in a sweet sauce, flavoured with hot red ____4____”可知,这道菜是将炸鸡淋上甜酱,再加上红辣椒调味,所以谓语的意思应该为“由……组成”;consist of意为“由……组成”,符合语境,句子描述事实,所以用一般现在时,主语which指代的是“General Tso’s chicken”为单数,所以谓语动词用单数。故填consists。
【54题详解】
考查名词。句意:例如,美国最受欢迎的中国菜是左宗棠鸡,这道菜是用炸鸡蘸上甜酱,用红辣椒调味。根据常识可知“左宗棠鸡”为湖南菜,所以此处为“用红辣椒调味”。pepper意为“辣椒”为可数名词,此处应用复数形式表示泛指。故填peppers。
【55题详解】
考查名词。句意:然而,这可能不是正宗的中国食谱,所以它不能告诉我们太多关于中国人的事情。根据下文“so it cannot tell us much about the Chinese”可知,这可能不是正宗的中国食谱,所以空格处需要填入“食谱”;recipe意为食谱,空格前有an,所以用单数。故填recipe。

【57题详解】
考查形容词。句意:在所到的每一个地方,我们都品尝到了美味的当地菜肴,从广东精致的点心——竹制蒸笼里的小份食物,到河南绝佳的烩面。此处修饰名词dim sum,结合广东点心精致、精巧的特点,用形容词elegant表示“精致的、雅致的”。故填elegant。
【58题详解】
考查形容词。句意:在所到的每一个地方,我们都品尝到了美味的当地菜肴,从广东精致的点心——竹制蒸笼里的小份食物,到河南绝佳的烩面。此处修饰名词stewed noodles,与前文形容广东点心的elegant相呼应,用形容词exceptional表示“极好的、绝佳的”。故填exceptional。
【59题详解】
考查连词。句意:各地的美食就像当地的人们一样丰富多彩。“as+形容词原级+as”是固定比较结构,意为“和……一样……”,此处用as构成“as varied as”,表达美食的多样性与人群的多样性一致。故填as。
【60题详解】
考查连词。句意:但有一点始终不变:无论身处何地,中国人都会通过美食表达友谊与善意。friendship(友谊)和kindness(善意)是两个并列的抽象名词,均为中国人通过美食传递的情感,用并列连词and连接。故填and。

“Good morning, Miss Bolz.” A friendly man in his early twenties greeted me as he placed my breakfast on the table next to my bed. I struggled to sit up, but after being hospitalized several days for severe breathing difficulties, I was still very weak.
Now, I was in a nursing home, and I hated staying here. The two elderly women who were sharing my room kept me up every night with low, painful sounds and screams. My nerves were shot, and I felt really tired from not sleeping.
Fortunately, there was one positive part about my stay at the nursing home: The food was good. Since I needed to be on medications that had a side effect of stimulating my appetite, I was thankful to have three tasty meals each day.
“You gave me oatmeal (燕麦粥) again. Thanks for remembering that it’s my favorite breakfast!” I told the young man who had brought my breakfast. “Well, uh, thanks,” he replied, looking surprised. “Actually, we cook oatmeal for all the patients every morning, but nobody has ever told me before that they like it. Everyone on the kitchen staff works very hard to prepare the meals, so it’s nice to hear praise for a change. Usually, the patients are complaining about the food.”
While the young man delivered breakfasts to the two other women in the room, I wondered what I could do to encourage him and his coworkers. Reaching for a pen on my nightstand, I quickly wrote a nice note about the food on the back of the breakfast menu and waved it in the air. “Is that for me?” the man asked with a laugh. He read my note and smiled widely. Then he promised to show my comments to everyone in the kitchen before hurrying away to deliver more breakfasts.

【答案】作答示例
As I watched him walk down the hallway, an idea came to me. I decided to write an encouraging note to the kitchen staff after every meal, and once I finished eating, I would lay it on my plate. Working on these notes, I soon got my mind off my illness and my noisy roommates. Words couldn’t describe the warmth I felt every time that young person told me about the joy on the staff’s faces whenever they received my notes. As I knew that my little effort was greatly appreciated, I felt that time flew like an arrow and my surroundings were no longer noisy.
Upon my departure, the man thanked me for my meal notes for all staff. His words made me realize how my little effort touched and encouraged everyone. Soon all the staff came in to say good-bye with a big thank-you note signed by every one of them and give me big hugs. Tears welling up in my eyes, I said sincerely, “Thank you so much for your hard work to make each meal nice.” I finally left with a strong resolution to express thankfulness whenever possible, having learned that it has the power to encourage others and light up even the hardest days.

【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,文章讲述作者因严重呼吸困难住院后转至养老院,虽厌恶此处(室友吵闹致无法安睡),却庆幸食物美味。送早餐的年轻男子称燕麦粥是常规餐食,鲜少获好评。作者遂写便条称赞食物,男子十分开心,承诺将便条带给厨房同事。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段内容“看着他沿着走廊走远,我突然想到一个主意。”可以预测续写这段主要内容:作者决定每餐给厨房写鼓励便条,此举让作者忘却烦恼,还感受温暖、觉得时光飞逝。
②由第二段首句内容“我离开时,那位年轻人感谢我为所有工作人员写的用餐便条。”可以预测续写这段主要内容:作者离开时获工作人员感谢与赠礼,遂决心常表感恩,因其能点亮艰难时光。
2.续写线索:给厨房写鼓励便条——作者开始忘却烦恼——感受到温暖——获工作人员感谢与赠礼——感悟
