Santorini, Greece With its unique blue-roofed churches, whitewashed buildings and colorful beaches, the island is a dream place for photographers. Also, some archaeologically (考古地) significant sites are worth a visit. Locals like to say there’s more wine than water on the island where it doesn’t often rain. Machu Picchu, Peru As one of the Seven Wonders of the World, Machu Picchu is one of the most-visited attractions in Peru. Visitors are particularly attracted by Temple of the Condor, a rock temple carved to look like the impressive bird in its name. Book tickets in advance, as only 2,500 people can visit Machu Picchu each day. Dubai, United Arab Emirates Everything is bigger and better in Dubai, which has various enjoyable sites, including water-parks, shopping malls and even an indoor ski spot. Though you’re likely to pay a pretty penny for a trip to Dubai, you can save a little cash by visiting during summer months. Maui, Hawaii Maui is home to some of the island’s best-known attractions and beaches. Besides, you can explore the world’s largest volcano that’s resting, Haleakala. This is Hawaii, so your trip will be on the high-priced side. Maui has most beaches, with red, white and black sand. 1. What is Santorini like? A. A land of great drought. B. An ideal site for photographers. C. A place with wine history. D. A place full of archaeological sites. 2. What’s special about Machu Picchu? A. It has a temple named after a kind of bird. B. It’s the most attractive spot in Peru. C. It has a limitless number of visitors each day. D. It’s among Seven Wonders of Peru. 3. What do Dubai and Maui have in common? A. They offer indoor skiing activities. B. They cost large amounts of money. C. They have beaches with colored sand. D. They have the world’s largest volcano. B During evenings spent with her crafting (手工艺) group, Kate Smith has produced a host of lovely pieces: hand-made bags, summer dresses, and even jewellery. But the thing she’s most proud of creating is a group of close friends that value each other’s company. The four members of the group Smith, Ratnett, Jenny and Clark, whose children were of the similar ages, first met at the school gate in the village of Marshfield. Later Smith ran a shop called Makery, selling craft materials and running in-store workshops. When the four got chatting, it turned out that they all showed interest in crafting and had all popped into the shop at one time or another. From then on, they have been meeting regularly to get crafty, taking it in turns to host at home. During their craft nights, the group will either work on their own projects or deal with a craft task together. Everyone will bring something delicious to eat, always Clark’s famous homemade bread, sometimes chocolates or a bottle of prosecco. But although all four women love to get their craft on, the real highlight of the evening is the chance to catch up. “We’ll give each other a big hug when we see each other,” says Smith. “Sometimes we’ll have a lot going on at home, but at our crafting evenings we can just let it all out. We don’t have to pretend everything is all right. I get a huge sense of comfort from asking their opinions on things, and we love sharing and learning new skills together. It’s a safe space filled with lovely people, and just really therapeutic (治愈的).” With Clark due to move back to her native New Zealand in November, the group plans to meet as regularly as they can in the run-up, and continue their meetings via video call once she’s overseas. As Christmas approaches, they’re also planning to keep up their crafting traditions. 4 What does Smith take greatest pride in about her crafting group? A. The creation of beautiful craftwork. B. The chance to improve crafting skills. C. The close relationship among friends. D. The lifelong company of the members. 5. What brought the four members together in Makery? A. Their children of similar ages. B. Their shared interest in crafting. C. Their common habit in shopping. D. Their idea of running workshops. 6. What is the best part of the crafting evenings? A. Supporting each other. B. Enjoying delicious food. C. Improving new art skills. D. Working on their project. 7. Which of the following is the group’s future plan? A. They will move together soon. B. They will meet every Christmas. C. They will travel to New Zealand. D. They will keep their traditions alive. C In 1879, an 8-year-old girl made a discovery that would rock our understanding of human history. On the walls of Altamira cave in northern Spain, she spotted amazing drawings of wild cows, painted in vivid red and black. More striking even than the images was their age: they were made thousands of years ago by modern humans’ supposedly primitive ancestors. Today, nearly 400 caves across Europe have been found decorated with hand stencils (模板), strange symbols and beautiful images of animals created by these skillful artists. The discoveries led to the view that artistic talent arose after modern humans arrived in the region some 40,000 years ago, as part of a “cultural explosion” reflecting a flowering of the human mind. But more recent evidence has blown this idea out of the water. For a start, modern humans might not have been the first artists in Europe. What’s more, a collection of cave paintings emerging in Indonesia has dismissed the idea that Europe was the centre of creativity. Local people have long known that the caves of the island of Sulawesi, Indonesia, contain many painted images. Modern humans are thought to have reached the region some 65,000 years ago, but nobody imagined the art could be very old because ancient paintings seem unlikely to survive in the environment of high temperatures. A team of researchers led by Maxime Aubert, now at Griffith University in Australia, upended this idea using a technique that is shifting our understanding of cave art. Using this technique in seven caves, they found a hand stencil was at least 39,900 years old, making it the oldest known hand stencil at that time. This opened a floodgate to new discoveries in Indonesia. These included a hunting scene created at least 43,900 years ago, and by far the oldest descriptive artwork. “When we found that image, we were absolutely delighted, but when it turned out to be that old, we were almost jumping with joy,” says Adam Brumm, also at Griffith University. 8. What did the girl find in the cave? A. Wild animals. B. Ancient images. C. Painting techniques. D. Recording artists. 9. What was a misunderstanding removed by recent evidence about the cave art? A. It can be traced back to Europe. B. It reflected the flowering of human minds. C. Modern humans led to its rise in Indonesia. D. Modern humans might not have been real artists. 10. What does the underlined word “upended” mean in paragraph 3? A. Proved. B. Strengthened. C. Overturned. D. Overemphasized. 11. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A. The amazing discoveries. B. The researchers’ expectations. C. The benefits of the technique. D. The description of the cave art. D Carbon removal is crucial for fighting climate change. Scientists at Salk Institute are making use of the natural capacity of plants to absorb carbon dioxide by enhancing their root systems. This optimization (优化) aims to increase the amount of carbon stored and extend the duration of its storage. To design these climate-saving plants, the scientists are using a research tool called SLEAP — an AI software that tracks multiple features of root growth. Created by Salk Fellow Talmo Pereira, SLEAP was initially designed to track animal movement in the lab. Now, Pereira has teamed up with plant scientist Professor Wolfgang Busch to apply SLEAP to plants. In a study published in Plant Phenomics, Busch and Pereira establish a new procedure for using SLEAP to analyze plant root phenotypes — how deep and wide they grow, how massive their root systems become, and other physical qualities. Prior to SLEAP, tracking the physical characteristics of both plants and animals required a lot of labor that slowed the scientific process. SLEAP uses computer vision (the ability for computers to understand images) and deep learning (an AI approach for training a computer to learn and work like the human brain) to help researchers process images much more quickly. The application of SLEAP to plants has already enabled researchers to establish the most extensive catalog (目录) of plant root phenotypes to date. What’s more, tracking these physical root system characteristics helps scientists find genes (基因) associated with those characteristics, as well as whether multiple root characteristics are determined by the same genes or independently. This allows the Salk team to determine what genes are most beneficial to their plant designs. “Our cooperation is truly proof of what makes Salk science so special and impactful,” says Pereira. “We’re not just ‘borrowing’ from different disciplines — we’re really putting them on equal footing in order to create something greater than the sum of its parts.” 12. What do the scientists at Salk Institute hope to achieve? A. Keeping more carbon in plants. B. Optimizing the use of energy. C. Enhancing biological diversity. D. Reducing carbon absorption. 13. Why did Pereira create SLEAP? A. To generate plant images. B. To conduct research on animals. C. To study climate patterns. D. To track features of root growth. 14. What will SLEAP help the scientists do? A. Pick out diseased plants in the forest. B. Collect samples of plant root systems. C. Identify genes for desirable plant roots. D. Preserve the genes of endangered plants. 15. What can be inferred from Pereira’s words? A. Academic disciplines are of equal importance. B. Computer programming is a must for scientists. C. Interdisciplinary approach promotes creativity. D. Cooperation outweighs competition in research. 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。 During your initial reading of material, do you ever go back and reread sentences or paragraphs? Is it because the material is too difficult to comprehend on the first reading or because you are asleep? ____16____ You are napping (打盹) or daydreaming. Halfway down the page you realize that you have no idea what you have read. ____17____ Thus, you go back and reread, not because you did not understand, but because you were not paying attention. This type of rereading is called regression. Napping and daydreaming are habits caused by lack of involvement with the material. Be demanding on yourself and expect 100 percent attention to the task. Engage your mind. Visualize the incoming ideas, and relate the new material to what you already know. ____18____ If your mind is truly occupied with the text, you will not be able to think about Friday night or where to go on Saturday. Regression is a crutch (拐杖) that allows you to make up for wasted time. First of all, become aware of when and why you are regressing. ____19____ Say, “OK. I missed that paragraph because I was thinking of something else, but I’m going to keep on going and start paying close attention.” ____20____ Good readers who monitor their own comprehension use it in the reading process. However, regressing because your mind was asleep is a waste of time. A. Both are to blame. B. Probably the latter is true. C. Don’t just read the words; think the ideas. D. Spend a few minutes reading the material aloud. E. Your eyes were engaged, but your mind was not. F. Then, start denying yourself the right in order to break the habit. G Rereading because you did not understand is a reasonable fix-up strategy. 第三部分 语言知识运用 (共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Devin Lee is a high school chemistry teacher in Washington, D.C.

I had looked forward to it for a long time and had already prepared two of my best songs. My mom had a wonderful idea, however, to turn this disappointing letdown into something worthwhile. “You and your sister should perform your songs at Carriage House Senior Living, ”my mom suggested brightly. “I’m sure the elderly there would really appreciate the music and you could each play more than just two songs. ” I immediately thought this was a great idea. Playing the piano at Carriage House seemed like a win-win situation because not only would I get to play more songs, but I would also have the chance to cheer up the seniors with some lively tunes. My mom called Carriage House and made arrangements for us to perform during the Sunday dinner hour in two weeks. I worked hard to polish up fifteen pieces, including many old classics. My sister and I decided to take turns playing throughout the hour. When the much-anticipated day finally arrived, we entered the spacious dining room where a shiny black electric grand piano stood waiting. The room was filled with elderly residents enjoying dinner, yet despite the conversations, isolation hung in the air. We were immediately greeted by Phyllis, an old woman in charge of Carriage House. When I told her we had come to play the piano, she seemed quite pleased flashing us a bright smile. Phyllis announced to the room, “These two girls have come to sing and let’s welcome them”. As she handed me the microphone, there was scattered applause. “Hi, my name is Baylie,” I said with a smile. “Hi, I’m Chloe,” my sister said shyly. “We have come here to entertain you with some piano songs. We hope you enjoy our performance,” I enthusiastically announced. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150左右; (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答 I sat down on the hard bench and turned to my first song. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After performing, I noticed Phyllis wiping tears from her eyes. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 丰城九中2025-2026学年高一年级上学期日新班期末考试英语试卷 命题人：李婉莹 审题人：王雨平 考试时间：120分钟 试卷总分：150分 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。每段对话读两遍。 1.

B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要讲述了全球四个最佳旅行目的地的介绍和特色。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。由文章Santorini, Greece部分中“With its unique blue-roofed churches, whitewashed buildings and colorful beaches, the island is a dream place for photographers. (这个岛屿以其独特的蓝色屋顶的教堂、粉刷成白色的建筑和色彩斑斓的海滩，是摄影师们的梦想之地。)”可知，Santorini是一个理想的摄影场所。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。由文章Machu Picchu, Peru部分中“Visitors are particularly attracted by Temple of the Condor, a rock temple carved to look like the impressive bird in its name. (游客们尤其被秃鹰庙所吸引，这是一座岩石寺庙，以它的名字命名，看起来像令人印象深刻的秃鹰。)”可知，所以，Machu Picchu的特别之处在于它有一座以鸟类命名的寺庙。故选A。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。由文章Dubai, United Arab部分中“Though you’re likely to pay a pretty penny for a trip to Dubai, you can save a little cash by visiting during summer months. (虽然你可能会花一大笔钱去迪拜旅行，但在夏季参观可以节省一点钱。)”和最后一段“This is Hawaii, so your trip will be on the high-priced side. (这是夏威夷，所以你的旅行价格会偏高。)”可知，Dubai和Maui的共同点是它们的旅行费用都很高。故选B。 B During evenings spent with her crafting (手工艺) group, Kate Smith has produced a host of lovely pieces: hand-made bags, summer dresses, and even jewellery.

On the walls of Altamira cave in northern Spain, she spotted amazing drawings of wild cows, painted in vivid red and black. More striking even than the images was their age: they were made thousands of years ago by modern humans’ supposedly primitive ancestors. Today, nearly 400 caves across Europe have been found decorated with hand stencils (模板), strange symbols and beautiful images of animals created by these skillful artists. The discoveries led to the view that artistic talent arose after modern humans arrived in the region some 40,000 years ago, as part of a “cultural explosion” reflecting a flowering of the human mind. But more recent evidence has blown this idea out of the water. For a start, modern humans might not have been the first artists in Europe. What’s more, a collection of cave paintings emerging in Indonesia has dismissed the idea that Europe was the centre of creativity. Local people have long known that the caves of the island of Sulawesi, Indonesia, contain many painted images. Modern humans are thought to have reached the region some 65,000 years ago, but nobody imagined the art could be very old because ancient paintings seem unlikely to survive in the environment of high temperatures. A team of researchers led by Maxime Aubert, now at Griffith University in Australia, upended this idea using a technique that is shifting our understanding of cave art. Using this technique in seven caves, they found a hand stencil was at least 39,900 years old, making it the oldest known hand stencil at that time. This opened a floodgate to new discoveries in Indonesia. These included a hunting scene created at least 43,900 years ago, and by far the oldest descriptive artwork. “When we found that image, we were absolutely delighted, but when it turned out to be that old, we were almost jumping with joy,” says Adam Brumm, also at Griffith University. 8. What did the girl find in the cave? A. Wild animals. B. Ancient images. C. Painting techniques. D. Recording artists. 9. What was a misunderstanding removed by recent evidence about the cave art? A. It can be traced back to Europe. B. It reflected the flowering of human minds. C. Modern humans led to its rise in Indonesia. D. Modern humans might not have been real artists. 10. What does the underlined word “upended” mean in paragraph 3? A. Proved. B. Strengthened. C. Overturned. D. Overemphasized. 11 What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A. The amazing discoveries. B. The researchers’ expectations. C. The benefits of the technique. D. The description of the cave art. 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是篇说明文。文章主要是通过人们的发现和专家们的研究，探索古老的洞穴壁画艺术的悠久的历史。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“On the walls of Altamira cave in northern Spain, she spotted amazing drawings of wild cows, painted in vivid red and black. More striking even than the images was their age: they were made thousands of years ago by modern humans’ supposedly primitive ancestors. ”（ 在西班牙北部Altamira洞穴墙壁上，她发现了用鲜艳的红色和黑色绘制的野生奶牛的惊人画作，比这些图像更引人注目的是它们的年代：它们是由现代人的原始祖先在几千年前制作的。）可知，这个女孩在洞穴发现了古老的图像。故选B。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“For a start, modern humans might not have been the first artists in Europe. What’s more, a collection of cave paintings emerging in Indonesia has dismissed the idea that Europe was the centre of creativity.”（首先，现代人可能不是欧洲最早的艺术家，更重要的是，在印度尼西亚发现的一组洞穴壁画驳斥了欧洲是创造力中心的观点。）可知，欧洲不是洞穴艺术的发源地，“洞穴艺术可以追溯到欧洲”这一想法是一种误解。故选A。 【10题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第三段“Modern humans are thought to have reached the region some 65,000 years ago, but nobody imagined the art could be very old because ancient paintings seem unlikely to survive in the environment of high temperatures. ”（现代人被认为在大约6.5万年前到达了这个地区，但没有人想到这些艺术品可能非常古老，因为古代绘画似乎不太可能在高温环境中存活下来。）和“Using this technique in seven caves, they found a hand stencil was at least 39,900 years old, making it the oldest known hand stencil at that time.”（在七个洞穴中使用这种技术，他们发现了一个至少有39900年历史的手模板，使其成为当时已知最古老的手模板。）可知，通过使用这种技术，人们发现了存活下来的古老的艺术平，改变了最初的想法；结合划线词所在句“A team of researchers led by Maxime Aubert, now at Griffith University in Australia, upended this idea using a technique that is shifting our understanding of cave art.”中的“using a technique that is shifting our understanding of cave art”（使用这种正在改变我们对洞穴艺术的理解的技术）可知，使用这项技术改变、颠覆了之前的想法，故“upended”意为“颠覆”。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“This opened a floodgate to new discoveries in Indonesia. ”（这为印尼的新发现打开了闸门。）及“These included a hunting scene created at least 43,900 years ago, and by far the oldest descriptive artwork.”（其中包括至少43,900年前创作的狩猎场景，这是迄今为止最古老的描述性艺术品。）可知，最后一段主要在谈论在印尼发现的这些令人惊叹的艺术品。故选A。 D Carbon removal is crucial for fighting climate change. Scientists at Salk Institute are making use of the natural capacity of plants to absorb carbon dioxide by enhancing their root systems. This optimization (优化) aims to increase the amount of carbon stored and extend the duration of its storage. To design these climate-saving plants, the scientists are using a research tool called SLEAP — an AI software that tracks multiple features of root growth. Created by Salk Fellow Talmo Pereira, SLEAP was initially designed to track animal movement in the lab. Now, Pereira has teamed up with plant scientist Professor Wolfgang Busch to apply SLEAP to plants. In a study published in Plant Phenomics, Busch and Pereira establish a new procedure for using SLEAP to analyze plant root phenotypes — how deep and wide they grow, how massive their root systems become, and other physical qualities. Prior to SLEAP, tracking the physical characteristics of both plants and animals required a lot of labor that slowed the scientific process. SLEAP uses computer vision (the ability for computers to understand images) and deep learning (an AI approach for training a computer to learn and work like the human brain) to help researchers process images much more quickly. The application of SLEAP to plants has already enabled researchers to establish the most extensive catalog (目录) of plant root phenotypes to date. What’s more, tracking these physical root system characteristics helps scientists find genes (基因) associated with those characteristics, as well as whether multiple root characteristics are determined by the same genes or independently. This allows the Salk team to determine what genes are most beneficial to their plant designs. “Our cooperation is truly proof of what makes Salk science so special and impactful,” says Pereira. “We’re not just ‘borrowing’ from different disciplines — we’re really putting them on equal footing in order to create something greater than the sum of its parts.” 12. What do the scientists at Salk Institute hope to achieve? A. Keeping more carbon in plants. B. Optimizing the use of energy. C. Enhancing biological diversity. D. Reducing carbon absorption. 13. Why did Pereira create SLEAP? A. To generate plant images. B. To conduct research on animals. C. To study climate patterns. D. To track features of root growth. 14. What will SLEAP help the scientists do? A. Pick out diseased plants in the forest. B. Collect samples of plant root systems. C. Identify genes for desirable plant roots. D. Preserve the genes of endangered plants. 15. What can be inferred from Pereira’s words? A. Academic disciplines are of equal importance. B. Computer programming is a must for scientists. C. Interdisciplinary approach promotes creativity. D. Cooperation outweighs competition in research. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述索尔克研究所科学家为固碳优化植物根系，将原追踪动物AI工具SLEAP应用于研究植物根系表型，助力筛选有益基因，这也是跨学科合作的成果。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Scientists at Salk Institute are making use of the natural capacity of plants to absorb carbon dioxide by enhancing their root systems.

Is it because the material is too difficult to comprehend on the first reading or because you are asleep? ____16____ You are napping (打盹) or daydreaming. Halfway down the page you realize that you have no idea what you have read. ____17____ Thus, you go back and reread, not because you did not understand, but because you were not paying attention. This type of rereading is called regression. Napping and daydreaming are habits caused by lack of involvement with the material. Be demanding on yourself and expect 100 percent attention to the task. Engage your mind. Visualize the incoming ideas, and relate the new material to what you already know. ____18____ If your mind is truly occupied with the text, you will not be able to think about Friday night or where to go on Saturday. Regression is a crutch (拐杖) that allows you to make up for wasted time. First of all, become aware of when and why you are regressing. ____19____ Say, “OK. I missed that paragraph because I was thinking of something else, but I’m going to keep on going and start paying close attention.” ____20____ Good readers who monitor their own comprehension use it in the reading process. However, regressing because your mind was asleep is a waste of time. A. Both are to blame. B. Probably the latter is true. C. Don’t just read the words; think the ideas. D. Spend a few minutes reading the material aloud. E. Your eyes were engaged, but your mind was not. F. Then, start denying yourself the right in order to break the habit. G. Rereading because you did not understand is a reasonable fix-up strategy. 【答案】16. B 17. E 18. C 19. F 20.

I had looked forward to it for a long time and had already prepared two of my best songs. My mom had a wonderful idea, however, to turn this disappointing letdown into something worthwhile. “You and your sister should perform your songs at Carriage House Senior Living, ”my mom suggested brightly. “I’m sure the elderly there would really appreciate the music and you could each play more than just two songs. ” I immediately thought this was a great idea. Playing the piano at Carriage House seemed like a win-win situation because not only would I get to play more songs, but I would also have the chance to cheer up the seniors with some lively tunes. My mom called Carriage House and made arrangements for us to perform during the Sunday dinner hour in two weeks. I worked hard to polish up fifteen pieces, including many old classics. My sister and I decided to take turns playing throughout the hour. When the much-anticipated day finally arrived, we entered the spacious dining room where a shiny black electric grand piano stood waiting. The room was filled with elderly residents enjoying dinner, yet despite the conversations, isolation hung in the air. We were immediately greeted by Phyllis, an old woman in charge of Carriage House. When I told her we had come to play the piano, she seemed quite pleased flashing us a bright smile. Phyllis announced to the room, “These two girls have come to sing and let’s welcome them”. As she handed me the microphone, there was scattered applause. “Hi, my name is Baylie,” I said with a smile. “Hi, I’m Chloe,” my sister said shyly. “We have come here to entertain you with some piano songs. We hope you enjoy our performance,” I enthusiastically announced. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150左右; (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答 I sat down on the hard bench and turned to my first song. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After performing, I noticed Phyllis wiping tears from her eyes. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】A possible version: I sat down on the hard bench and turned to my first song. My initial nervousness was quickly replaced by excitement as I began playing my songs. I found myself truly enjoying the performance, and so did my sister. The dinner hour flew by smoothly. Some of the elderly swayed in their chairs to the beat of the music while others tapped their toes or snapped their fingers. I was amazed how the melodies brought such joy to their faces. What began as a standard dinner hour extended to ninety minutes. As it concluded, I gathered my music and joined my sister at the front and curtsied as the crowd wholeheartedly applauded. After performing, I noticed Phyllis wiping tears from her eyes. She slowly approached us and told us many of the elderly there do not have families that visit them often, and tragically some do not even have families at all. Our performance really made their day and eased their loneliness. It struck me that no matter how young we are, we still have the power to make a difference in the world and spread kindness to those desperately in need of it. It ended up being a blessing in disguise that the recital was canceled, because it led to us sharing the gift of music with those who needed it most. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者因钢琴演奏会取消而失望，妈妈提议作者和妹妹去养老院表演。他们精心准备了十五首曲子，在养老院晚餐时登场。演奏中老人们随音乐律动，原本一小时的表演延长至九十分钟。菲利斯告知这里许多老人缺乏家人陪伴，音乐慰藉了他们的孤独，这让作者明白小小的善举也能带来大改变。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我坐在硬质长椅上，开始弹奏我的第一首曲子。”可知，第一段可描写演奏中老人们随音乐律动，原本一小时的表演延长至九十分钟。 ②由第二段首句内容“表演结束后，我看到菲莉丝正擦去眼中泪水。”可知，第二段可描写菲利斯告知这里许多老人缺乏家人陪伴，音乐慰藉了他们的孤独，这让作者明白小小的善举也能带来大改变。 2.续写线索：演奏曲子——老人随着音乐律动——表演延长——告知老人缺乏陪伴——作者感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①延长：extend/lengthen ②取代：replace/take place of ③告知：tell/inform 情绪类 ①紧张：nervousness/stress ②激动：excitement/thrill 【点睛】[高分句型1] As it concluded, I gathered my music and joined my sister at the front and curtsied as the crowd wholeheartedly applauded.（运用了as引导时间状语从句） [高分句型2] It struck me that no matter how young we are, we still have the power to make a difference in the world and spread kindness to those desperately in need of it.（运用了no matter how引导让步状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
