B A dad from Texas didn’t miss a beat when it came to supporting his daughter recently. Cecelia Simmons shared a video of her husband, Andre Simmons, dancing in the stands while their daughter Jazlyn and her Temple High School cheer team performed. In the video, as the cheer team members raise the small balls and go through their routine, Andre Simmons follows right along, nailing the moves right alongside them. The post shared on social media has obtained over 312,000 views. With tens of thousands of overwhelmingly positive comments on his post, people online quickly shared their reactions. They recommended Andre Simmons as “Cheer Dad of the Year” or applauded his energy and spot-on moves. Simmons himself was quick to say he’s not the best dancer and it took him a few days to learn the routine. “Once I got it down pat, I just jumped up there when I heard the band finally bring the song up and I got up there and did it with her,” he said. But the father of five said he persisted because he wanted to create a lifelong memory with his girl Jazlyn, mostly because he was constantly away for work, thereby affording limited opportunities to be in the company of her. “Since she made the cheer team, that was my way of supporting her and kind of relieving the guilt of the lost time. She thought I was doing things that she loved and surprising her with joining her in the cheer during the football game,” Simmons said. Simmons said Jazlyn and her cheer team friends were surprised and “absolutely loved” that he could join in on the fun. The proud dad said it meant “the world” to him to be able to be there for his daughter too. “I love to try to be a super dad when I’m here and create those lifelong memories and it’s something for us to look back on and enjoy together,” he said and planned on cheering some more and making more memories with Jazlyn. 4. What did Andre Simmons do at his daughter’s cheer performance? A. He danced with the team. B. He filmed the performance. C. He coached the cheer team. D. He cheered from the stands. 5. How did people find Andre Simmons’ behavior? A. Amusing. B. Disturbing. C. Odd. D. Admirable. 6. Why did Andre Simmons make such a decision? A. To win the title of “Cheer Dad of the Year”. B. To show off his newly learned dancing skills. C. To be the focus of attention on the Internet. D. To make up for being absent from Jazlyn’s life. 7. Which words can best describe Andre Simmons? A. Bearable and cautious. B. Selfless and cooperative. C. Supportive and caring. D. Ambitious and sensitive. C While safety improvements might have been made to our streets in recent years, transport studies also show declines in pedestrian (行人) mobility, especially among young children. Many parents say there’s too much traffic on the roads for their children to walk safely to school, so they pack them into the car instead. Dutch authors Thalia Verkade and Marco te Brömmelstroet are bothered by facts like these. In their new book Movement: How to Take Back Our Streets and Transform Our Lives, they call for a rethink of our streets and the role they play in our lives. Life on city streets started to change decades ago. Whole neighbourhoods were destroyed to make way for new road networks and kids had to play elsewhere. Some communities fought back. Most famously, a Canadian journalist who had moved her family to Manhattan in the early 1950s led a campaign to stop the destruction of her local park. Describing her alarm at its proposed replacement with an expressway, Jane Jacobs called on her mayor (市长) to champion “New York as a decent place to live, and not just rush through.” Similar campaigns occurred in Australia in the late 1960s and 1970s as well. Although these campaigns were widespread, the reality is that the majority of the western cities were completely redesigned around the needs of the motor car. The number of cars on roads has been increasing rapidly. In Australia we now have over twenty million cars for just over twenty-six million people, among the highest rate of car ownership in the world. We invest a lot in roads that help us rush through, but we fail to account for the true costs. Do we really recognise what it costs us as a society when children can’t move safely around our communities? The authors of Movement have it right: it’s time to think differently about that street outside your front door. 8. What phenomenon does the author point out in paragraph 1? A. Cars often get stuck on the road. B. Traffic accidents occur frequently. C. People walk less and drive more. D. Pedestrians fail to follow the rules. 9. What were the Canadian journalist and other campaigners trying to do? A. Keep their cities livable. B. Promote cultural diversity. C. Help the needy families. D. Make expressways accessible. 10. What can be inferred about the campaigns in Australia in the late 1960s and 1970s? A. They boosted the sales of cars. B. They turned out largely ineffective. C. They won government support. D. They advocated building new parks. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Why the Rush? B. What’s Next? C. Where to Stay? D. Who to Blame? D Microplastics have become a common source of pollution across the Earth — they have settled in the deep sea and on the Himalayas, stuck inside volcanic rocks, filled the stomachs of seabirds and even fallen in fresh Antarctic snow. They are even appearing inside humans. Now, new research suggests that a simple, cheap measure may significantly reduce the level of microplastics in water from your tap (水龙头): boiling and filtering (过滤) it. In a study published Wednesday in Environmental Science & Technology Letters, researchers from China found that boiling tap water for just five minutes — then filtering it after it cools — could remove at least 80 percent of its microplastics. Crucially, this process relies on the water containing enough calcium carbonate (碳酸钙) to trap the plastics. In the study, boiling hard water containing 300 milligrams of calcium carbonate led to an almost 90 percent drop in plastics. But in samples with less than 60 milligrams of calcium carbonate, boiling reduced the level of plastics by just 25 percent. Additionally, the research didn’t include all types of plastics. The team focused only on three common types — polystyrene, polyethylene and polypropylene — and they didn’t study other chemicals previously found in water such as vinyl chloride. Still, the findings show a potential path forward for reducing microplastic exposure — a task that’s becoming increasingly difficult. Even bottled water, scientists found earlier this year, contains 10 to 1,000 times more microplastics than originally thought. Scientists are still trying to determine how harmful microplastics are — but what they do know has raised concerns. The new study suggests boiling tap water could be a tool to limit intake. “The way they demonstrated how microplastics were trapped through the boiling process was nice,” Caroline Gauchotte-Lindsay, an environmental engineer of the University of Glasgow in Scotland who was not involved in the research, tells New Scientist. “We should be looking into upgrading drinking water treatment plants so they remove microplastics.” 12. How does the author present the issue in the first paragraph? A. By quoting an expert. B. By defining a concept. C. By giving examples. D. By providing statistics. 13. What determines the effectiveness of trapping microplastics in water? A. The hardness of water. B. The length of cooling time. C. The frequency of filtering. D. The type of plastic in water. 14. What does the author try to illustrate by mentioning bottled water in paragraph 4? A. The importance of plastic recycling. B. The severity of the microplastic problem. C. The danger in overusing pure water. D. The difficulty in treating polluted water. 15. What is Gauchotte-Lindsay’s suggestion about? A. Choice of new research methods. B. Possible direction for further study. C. Need to involve more researchers. D. Potential application of the findings. 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。 Things To Remember On Your First Solo Travel Adventure If you’ve ever thought about just taking a trip yourself instead of waiting for someone to join you, you’re not alone. ____16____ However, do you count yourself among the many who have tried it?

He opened the fridge and grabbed one bottle of drink from dozens of various caffeinated drinks. Like some other young people, Kevin was in a pattern of unhealthy living. He often stayed up late, accompanied with late-night snacks like ice cream and pizza. He rushed through his day with skipping breakfast or eating on the go. He was feeding primarily on high-fat, high-calorie foods like fast food, sugary snacks, and caffeinated drinks. When back from work, Kevin spent most of his free time sitting on the sofa, browsing smartphone screen, rarely engaging in physical activity, which caused him overweight. One evening, as he scrolled through his phone on the sofa as usual, a piece of news caught his eye. It was about a 5-year-old girl named Melody, who was battling leukemia (白血病) and in desperate need of a bone marrow (骨髓) transplant. The story tugged at Kevin’s heartstrings, and he felt a sudden urge to help. The next day, he went to the hospital and asked for getting tested for bone marrow compatibility (相容). To his delight, the test results showed that he was a perfect match for Melody. Excitement filled his heart as he prepared for the donation process. However, during his following medical check-ups, Kevin was informed that he had fatty liver (脂肪肝), meaning that he was unqualified to be a suitable donor at present unless his condition improved. The thought of little Melody lying in a hospital bed waiting for a life-saving transplant, drove Kevin into action. He resolved to make significant changes to his lifestyle to improve his health and become a suitable donor. He began by adopting a strict exercise plan, incorporating daily runs into his routine. His diet underwent a transformation as well, with healthier food choices replacing his previous ones. He also made a conscious effort to get more sleep and reduce his screen time. 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。 Day by day, Kevin’s commitment to his new lifestyle began to show results. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The experience significantly impacted Kevin. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 河北辛集中学2025-2026学年度第二学期收心练习 高二英语试题 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.

But the father of five said he persisted because he wanted to create a lifelong memory with his girl Jazlyn, mostly because he was constantly away for work, thereby affording limited opportunities to be in the company of her. “Since she made the cheer team, that was my way of supporting her and kind of relieving the guilt of the lost time. She thought I was doing things that she loved and surprising her with joining her in the cheer during the football game,” Simmons said. Simmons said Jazlyn and her cheer team friends were surprised and “absolutely loved” that he could join in on the fun. The proud dad said it meant “the world” to him to be able to be there for his daughter too. “I love to try to be a super dad when I’m here and create those lifelong memories and it’s something for us to look back on and enjoy together,” he said and planned on cheering some more and making more memories with Jazlyn. 4. What did Andre Simmons do at his daughter’s cheer performance? A. He danced with the team. B. He filmed the performance. C. He coached the cheer team. D. He cheered from the stands. 5. How did people find Andre Simmons’ behavior? A. Amusing. B. Disturbing. C. Odd. D. Admirable. 6. Why did Andre Simmons make such a decision? A. To win the title of “Cheer Dad of the Year”. B. To show off his newly learned dancing skills. C. To be the focus of attention on the Internet. D. To make up for being absent from Jazlyn’s life. 7. Which words can best describe Andre Simmons? A Bearable and cautious. B. Selfless and cooperative. C. Supportive and caring. D. Ambitious and sensitive. 【答案】4. A 5. D 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述的是Andre Simmons在他女儿Jazlyn和她的高中啦啦队表演时，与她们一起跳舞以此支持女儿并弥补因工作繁忙而错过的陪伴时光，创造了难忘的记忆。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Cecelia Simmons shared a video of her husband, Andre Simmons, dancing in the stands while their daughter Jazlyn and her Temple High School cheer team performed. (Cecelia Simmons分享了她丈夫Andre Simmons在看台上跳舞的视频，而他们的女儿Jazlyn和她的Temple高中啦啦队在表演。)”可知，当Andre Simmons的女儿Jazlyn和她所在的啦啦队正在表演时，他在看台上跳舞。故选A。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“ With tens of thousands of overwhelmingly positive comments on his post, people online quickly shared their reactions. They recommended Andre Simmons as “Cheer Dad of the Year” or applauded his energy and spot-on moves. Simmons himself was quick to say he’s not the best dancer and it took him a few days to learn the routine.(他的帖子得到了数以万计的正面评论，网友们迅速分享了他们的反应。他们推荐Andre Simmons为“年度最佳加油爸爸”，或者称赞他的精力和精准的动作。Andre Simmons自己很快就说他不是最好的舞者，他花了几天时间来学习舞蹈。)”可知，Andre Simmons的视频获得了很多的正面评论，大家推荐Andre Simmons为“年度最佳加油爸爸”，为他的活力和到位动作喝彩。故选D。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“But the father of five said he persisted because he wanted to create a lifelong memory with his girl Jazlyn, mostly because he was constantly away for work, thereby affording limited opportunities to be in the company of her. (但这位五个孩子的父亲说，他之所以坚持这样做，是因为他想和他的女儿Jazlyn一起创造一个终生的回忆，主要是因为他经常出差，因此很少有机会陪伴她。)”可知，由于工作原因，Andre Simmons很少陪伴自己的女儿，因此想以此方式来支持并弥补她。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，Andre Simmons在他女儿Jazlyn 和她的高中啦啦队表演时与她们一起跳舞以此支持女儿并弥补因工作繁忙而错过的陪伴时光，创造了难忘的记忆。由此可知， Andre Simmons是一位给予女儿支持与关爱的父亲。C选项“Supportive and caring.(支持和关心。)”能够最好的概括该位父亲。故选C。 C While safety improvements might have been made to our streets in recent years, transport studies also show declines in pedestrian (行人) mobility, especially among young children. Many parents say there’s too much traffic on the roads for their children to walk safely to school, so they pack them into the car instead. Dutch authors Thalia Verkade and Marco te Brömmelstroet are bothered by facts like these. In their new book Movement: How to Take Back Our Streets and Transform Our Lives, they call for a rethink of our streets and the role they play in our lives. Life on city streets started to change decades ago. Whole neighbourhoods were destroyed to make way for new road networks and kids had to play elsewhere. Some communities fought back. Most famously, a Canadian journalist who had moved her family to Manhattan in the early 1950s led a campaign to stop the destruction of her local park. Describing her alarm at its proposed replacement with an expressway, Jane Jacobs called on her mayor (市长) to champion “New York as a decent place to live, and not just rush through.” Similar campaigns occurred in Australia in the late 1960s and 1970s as well. Although these campaigns were widespread, the reality is that the majority of the western cities were completely redesigned around the needs of the motor car. The number of cars on roads has been increasing rapidly. In Australia we now have over twenty million cars for just over twenty-six million people, among the highest rate of car ownership in the world. We invest a lot in roads that help us rush through, but we fail to account for the true costs. Do we really recognise what it costs us as a society when children can’t move safely around our communities? The authors of Movement have it right: it’s time to think differently about that street outside your front door. 8. What phenomenon does the author point out in paragraph 1? A. Cars often get stuck on the road. B. Traffic accidents occur frequently. C. People walk less and drive more. D. Pedestrians fail to follow the rules. 9. What were the Canadian journalist and other campaigners trying to do? A. Keep their cities livable. B. Promote cultural diversity. C. Help the needy families. D. Make expressways accessible. 10. What can be inferred about the campaigns in Australia in the late 1960s and 1970s? A. They boosted the sales of cars. B. They turned out largely ineffective. C. They won government support. D. They advocated building new parks. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Why the Rush? B. What’s Next? C. Where to Stay? D. Who to Blame? 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要介绍了西方城市过度围绕汽车设计导致行人流动性下降，尤其是儿童步行减少的现象，并通过历史案例和现状分析呼吁反思街道功能，重视城市宜居性。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“While safety improvements might have been made to our streets in recent years, transport studies also show declines in pedestrian (行人) mobility, especially among young children. Many parents say there’s too much traffic on the roads for their children to walk safely to school, so they pack them into the car instead. (虽然近年来我们的街道可能已经改善了安全性，但交通研究也表明行人的流动性下降，尤其是年轻儿童。许多家长说，路上的交通太拥挤，他们的孩子无法安全步行上学，所以他们把孩子塞进车里)”可知，作者指出的现象是人们步行减少、开车增多。故选C。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Most famously, a Canadian journalist who had moved her family to Manhattan in the early 1950s led a campaign to stop the destruction of her local park. Describing her alarm at its proposed replacement with an expressway, Jane Jacobs called on her mayor (市长) to champion “New York as a decent place to live, and not just rush through.” (最著名的是，一位加拿大记者在20世纪50年代初举家迁往曼哈顿，她领导了一场阻止当地公园被毁的运动。在描述她对用高速公路取代公园的提议感到震惊时，Jane Jacobs呼吁她的市长捍卫“纽约作为适宜居住的地方，而不仅是匆匆穿过的通道”)”可推知，加拿大记者和其他运动参与者旨在保持城市宜居性。故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“Although these campaigns were widespread, the reality is that the majority of the western cities were completely redesigned around the needs of the motor car. The number of cars on roads has been increasing rapidly. (尽管这些运动很普遍，但现实是大多数西方城市完全围绕汽车需求重新设计。道路上的汽车数量一直在迅速增加)”可推知，20世纪60年代末和70年代澳大利亚的竞选活动未能阻止汽车发展，基本上没有效果。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，并根据文章最后一段“We invest a lot in roads that help us rush through, but we fail to account for the true costs. Do we really recognise what it costs us as a society when children can’t move safely around our communities? (我们在帮助我们快速通过的道路上投入了大量资金，但我们没有考虑到真正的成本。我们真的认识到当孩子们不能在我们的社区安全地移动时，我们作为一个社会将会付出什么代价吗)”可推知，本文批判城市过度追求交通效率、忽视行人需求的现象，A项“Why the Rush? (为何匆匆？)”质问“rush through (匆匆通行)”的规划理念，契合主旨，最适合作为本文标题。故选A。 D Microplastics have become a common source of pollution across the Earth — they have settled in the deep sea and on the Himalayas, stuck inside volcanic rocks, filled the stomachs of seabirds and even fallen in fresh Antarctic snow. They are even appearing inside humans. Now, new research suggests that a simple, cheap measure may significantly reduce the level of microplastics in water from your tap (水龙头): boiling and filtering (过滤) it. In a study published Wednesday in Environmental Science & Technology Letters, researchers from China found that boiling tap water for just five minutes — then filtering it after it cools — could remove at least 80 percent of its microplastics. Crucially, this process relies on the water containing enough calcium carbonate (碳酸钙) to trap the plastics. In the study, boiling hard water containing 300 milligrams of calcium carbonate led to an almost 90 percent drop in plastics. But in samples with less than 60 milligrams of calcium carbonate, boiling reduced the level of plastics by just 25 percent. Additionally, the research didn’t include all types of plastics. The team focused only on three common types — polystyrene, polyethylene and polypropylene — and they didn’t study other chemicals previously found in water such as vinyl chloride. Still, the findings show a potential path forward for reducing microplastic exposure — a task that’s becoming increasingly difficult. Even bottled water, scientists found earlier this year, contains 10 to 1,000 times more microplastics than originally thought. Scientists are still trying to determine how harmful microplastics are — but what they do know has raised concerns. The new study suggests boiling tap water could be a tool to limit intake. “The way they demonstrated how microplastics were trapped through the boiling process was nice,” Caroline Gauchotte-Lindsay, an environmental engineer of the University of Glasgow in Scotland who was not involved in the research, tells New Scientist. “We should be looking into upgrading drinking water treatment plants so they remove microplastics.” 12. How does the author present the issue in the first paragraph? A. By quoting an expert. B. By defining a concept. C. By giving examples. D. By providing statistics. 13. What determines the effectiveness of trapping microplastics in water? A. The hardness of water. B. The length of cooling time. C. The frequency of filtering. D. The type of plastic in water. 14. What does the author try to illustrate by mentioning bottled water in paragraph 4? A. The importance of plastic recycling. B. The severity of the microplastic problem. C. The danger in overusing pure water. D. The difficulty in treating polluted water. 15. What is Gauchotte-Lindsay’s suggestion about? A. Choice of new research methods. B. Possible direction for further study. C. Need to involve more researchers. D. Potential application of the findings. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了一项关于减少自来水中微塑料污染的新研究。微塑料污染已遍及全球，甚至进入人体。中国研究人员发现，将自来水煮沸五分钟并冷却后过滤可能会显著降低自来水中的微塑料含量。研究虽未涵盖所有塑料类型和化学物质，但揭示了一种潜在解决方案。苏格兰环境工程师指出，该研究展示了煮沸法的有效性，并建议升级饮用水处理厂以推广应用。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段中“Microplastics have become a common source of pollution across the Earth — they have settled in the deep sea and on the Himalayas, stuck inside volcanic rocks, filled the stomachs of seabirds and even fallen in fresh Antarctic snow. They are even appearing inside humans. (微塑料已经成为地球上常见的污染源——它们出现在在深海和喜马拉雅山上，被困在火山岩中，填满海鸟的胃，甚至落在南极的新雪中。它们甚至出现了在人类体内)”可推知，作者通过举例提出微塑料污染的问题。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段中“Crucially, this process relies on the water containing enough calcium carbonate (碳酸钙) to trap the plastics. In the study, boiling hard water containing 300 milligrams of calcium carbonate led to an almost 90 percent drop in plastics. But in samples with less than 60 milligrams of calcium carbonate, boiling reduced the level of plastics by just 25 percent. (至关重要的是，这一过程依赖于含有足够碳酸钙的水来截留塑料。在这项研究中，将含有300毫克碳酸钙的硬水煮沸后，塑料含量下降了近90%。但在碳酸钙含量低于60毫克的样品中，煮沸只降低了25%的塑料含量)”可知，决定在水中截留微塑料的有效性的是水的硬度。故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段中“Still, the findings show a potential path forward for reducing microplastic exposure — a task that’s becoming increasingly diffcult. Even bottled water, scientists found earlier this year, contains 10 to 1,000 times more microplastics than originally thought. (尽管如此，研究结果显示了减少微塑料接触的潜在途径——这一任务正变得越来越困难。今年早些时候，科学家们发现，即使是瓶装水，其微塑料含量也比原先想象的高出10到1000倍。)”可推断，作者提到瓶装水是为了说明微塑料污染的严重性。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中““The way they demonstrated how microplastics were trapped through the boiling process was nice,” Caroline Gauchotte-Lindsay, an environmental engineer of the University of Glasgow in Scotland who was not involved in the research, tells New Scientist. “We should be looking into upgrading drinking water treatment plants so they remove microplastics.” (苏格兰格拉斯哥大学的环境工程师Caroline Gauchotte-Lindsay没有参与这项研究，她告诉《新科学家》杂志：“他们展示微塑料如何在煮沸过程中被截留的方式很不错。”“我们应该考虑升级饮用水处理厂，以便它们能去除微塑料”)”可推知，Caroline Gauchotte-Lindsay的建议是关于这项研究结果的潜在应用，即升级饮用水处理厂。故选D。 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。 Things To Remember On Your First Solo Travel Adventure If you’ve ever thought about just taking a trip yourself instead of waiting for someone to join you, you’re not alone. ____16____ However, do you count yourself among the many who have tried it?

He opened the fridge and grabbed one bottle of drink from dozens of various caffeinated drinks. Like some other young people, Kevin was in a pattern of unhealthy living. He often stayed up late, accompanied with late-night snacks like ice cream and pizza. He rushed through his day with skipping breakfast or eating on the go. He was feeding primarily on high-fat, high-calorie foods like fast food, sugary snacks, and caffeinated drinks. When back from work, Kevin spent most of his free time sitting on the sofa, browsing smartphone screen, rarely engaging in physical activity, which caused him overweight. One evening, as he scrolled through his phone on the sofa as usual, a piece of news caught his eye. It was about a 5-year-old girl named Melody, who was battling leukemia (白血病) and in desperate need of a bone marrow (骨髓) transplant. The story tugged at Kevin’s heartstrings, and he felt a sudden urge to help. The next day, he went to the hospital and asked for getting tested for bone marrow compatibility (相容). To his delight, the test results showed that he was a perfect match for Melody. Excitement filled his heart as he prepared for the donation process. However, during his following medical check-ups, Kevin was informed that he had fatty liver (脂肪肝), meaning that he was unqualified to be a suitable donor at present unless his condition improved. The thought of little Melody lying in a hospital bed, waiting for a life-saving transplant, drove Kevin into action. He resolved to make significant changes to his lifestyle to improve his health and become a suitable donor. He began by adopting a strict exercise plan, incorporating daily runs into his routine. His diet underwent a transformation as well, with healthier food choices replacing his previous ones. He also made a conscious effort to get more sleep and reduce his screen time. 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。 Day by day, Kevin’s commitment to his new lifestyle began to show results. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The experience significantly impacted Kevin. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Day by day, Kevin’s commitment to his new lifestyle began to show results.

To his relief and joy, the doctors announced that his fatty liver had disappeared, and his overall health had significantly improved, making him an excellent candidate for bone marrow donation. Without any hesitation, Kevin proceeded with the donation process. The procedure of the transplant was a success and he felt an immense sense of accomplishment. The experience significantly impacted Kevin. He was aware that his behavior made a difference not only in Melody’s life but also in his own. For one thing, his heart swelled with pride knowing that he played a crucial role in saving the life of little Melody. For another, he had turned his own life around for the better. The journey to becoming a suitable donor had been challenging, but it had also been incredibly rewarding. Kevin was motivated to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Apart from that, he learned the value of discipline, perseverance, and the importance of self-care. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述Kevin有一个不健康的生活方式，有一天他发现自己的骨髓可以和一个名叫梅洛迪的5岁白血病女孩配对，但是因为自己身体问题不能成为合适的捐献者。于是他决定开始对自己的生活方式做出改变。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“日复一日，Kevin对新生活方式的承诺开始显现成效。”可以预测续写这段主要内容： Kevin身体状况得到好转，成为合格的捐赠者，并手术很成功。 ②由第二段首句内容“这段经历对凯文产生了重大影响。”可以预测续写这段主要内容：Kevin的感悟，从此以后开始坚持健康生活方式。 2.续写线索： Kevin健康情况的改善——成为合格的捐赠者——手术很成功—— Kevin的感悟——从此坚持健康生活方式 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.宣布： announce/declare ②.拯救： save /rescue ③.激励：motivate/inspire 情绪类 ①.高兴： delight/happiness/joy ②.毫不犹豫地： without any hesitation /unhesitatingly 【点睛】[高分句型1].
