I’m still amazed I didn’t drop dead from awkwardness during my first solo (独自的) travel experience. As a 20-year-old, I booked an unplanned trip to Darwin in Australia. I didn’t want to go alone, but none of my friends had the time or money to go with me.
Everything went wrong from the start. Poor planning landed me in a shared room with two German men who didn’t speak English. On a guided tour of Kakadu National Park, I fell for every joke my Australian guide played on me. Dining alone was the worst. I felt like a loser when I requested a table for one. I was certain everyone was watching me, wondering if I was single, or simply friendless.
It turned out someone was watching me. During my last solo supper in Australia, a British woman came over. “I’m sorry, but I just have to say something,” she said. “I think you’re unbelievably brave. I’ve seen you around town this week and you look like you’re having so much fun. I wish I had the courage to travel on my own like you.”
It took a while for her words to really hit me, but during my next 21 years of traveling solo, I heard people express the same feeling again and again.
I became a solo traveler out of necessity, rather than choice: As a travel writer I spend a lot of time on my own. Also, as my friends got busy with their own lives, I discovered I had to travel solo if I wanted to travel at all. I quickly learned to love it, though — and now, I have complete freedom to decide what to do and when to do it. Over time, I’ve gained a strong sense of independence, and even learned to appreciate loneliness.
4. What difficulty did the author meet in Darwin?
A. Contacting friends. B. Ordering food at restaurants.
C. Finding a travel guide. D. Communicating with roommates.
5. How did the woman feel about the author?
A. Appreciative. B. Pitiful. C. Doubtful. D. Curious.
6. What made the author fall in love with solo travel?
A Personal growth. B. Work requirements.
C. Strangers’ praise. D. Friends’ encouragement.
7. What does the author want to express in the passage?
A. A detailed plan matters. B. Loneliness makes us complete.
C. Travelling alone is worth a try. D. Solo travel is for the independent.
C
Researchers in Switzerland recently taught the one-armed four-legged ANYmal search and rescue robot to play badminton against a human. This is far from the first time robots have been trained to play sports. They’ve run marathons, skied and played ping pong. There’s even a football RoboCup.
However, it’s not all fun and games. “Sports require skills,” says D’ Andrea, a professor in robotics and AI. “If you want to create robots that have the ability to deal with the physical environment, you can use sports as a way of training.” The skills can then be put to work in environments that are too dull, dirty, or dangerous for humans. Sports also catch people’s attention and serve as an interesting way to show new technological advances.
Though the skills robots learn from sports are mostly used in factories or dangerous jobs, the technology is already becoming a big part of sports themselves. For example, technologies like electronic line-calling (ELC) are taking the place of line judges in tennis games.
However, there’s doubt whether this improves the viewer experience. For the fans, the joy of sports is that you never know what will happen. If a robot tennis player takes the field, it might attract people’s attention at first but, after a while, would anyone want to watch it? “People enjoy watching sports because they connect with the athletes. Anything that lets robots play instead of these athletes is not going to be a success,” says D’Andrea.
The same is likely true for anything where human’s feelings play a central part. For over twenty years, the Japanese government has spent billions in developing robots for elderly people in care homes. But the use has been low, and it has so far shown the robots create more work for carers than they alleviate.
There’s a difference between pushing what tech can do and applying those tools in the wrong places. So, for now, sports people can rest easy. “I think we have to be careful that we don’t go too far just to save time and effort,” says D’Andrea. “I would ask the question: why do we want to take the place of people?”
8. Why are sports used to train robots?
A. To test robots’ sporting ability. B. To improve athletes’ sports skills.
C. To draw public attention to sports. D. To develop skills for real-world tasks.
9. What is the key to a successful viewer experience?
A. Match results. B. Human’s feelings.
C. Athletes’ efforts. D. Advanced technologies.
10. What does the underlined word “alleviate” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A. Arrange. B. Stress. C. Reduce. D. Change.
11. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Robot Athletes? All for Fun! B. Should Robots Take the Field?
C. Sports Robots: The Latest Invention D. ANYmal: Robots for Dangerous Jobs
D
Have you ever seen an animal video online that made you stop and wonder? Videos showing a wolf taking care of a rabbit, or a lion walking calmly through a small town are now spreading widely. This is possible because of AI technology. However, scientists warn such popular videos may hurt real wildlife protection and spread wrong ideas about nature.
A study in Conservation Biology points out that AI-generated animal videos create an untrue world, leading to wrong ideas about animal behavior and widening the gap between people and nature. Co-author José Guerrero-Casado stresses the danger of false (虚假的) information. For example, videos showing birds killing “bad” snakes might make people less willing to protect snakes, and create false ideas about animals that are already in danger.
The effect on children is especially worrying. These videos can give them wrong ideas about how people and animals really get along. When children discover that real-world animals do not act as they do in these made-up videos, it can have the opposite result, finally making them feel less connected to nature. This risk grows as young people increasingly turn to social media for information.
So, how can one recognize these videos? Experts suggest looking for a few signs: unnatural animal movements that appear too smooth or seem impossible in real life; light and shadows that do not look quite right; and small details like fur or feathers that appear unclear or repeat in an unusual way.
To deal with these risks, the research team suggests putting more effort into education, like teaching media literacy (素养) in schools. As another co-author Francisco Sánchez says, the goal is to make sure “children learn early that there are no lions living here.” While they think this is important, the researchers also say that school lessons alone cannot stop the spread of false information made by AI. This leads to an important question about who else in society needs to help solve this problem, if school education is not enough.
12. How does the author present the issue in the first paragraph?
A. By giving examples. B. By making a comparison.
C. By quoting an expert. D. By sharing an experience.
13. What can be inferred about AI-generated animal videos?
A. They make children love animals less. B. They mainly focus on species in danger.
C They may make animals seem dangerous. D. They create a false understanding of nature.
14. According to paragraph 4, which is most probably an AI-generated video?
A. A parrot with clear feathers. B. A cat with natural shadows.
C. A dog with unusual marks. D. A frog with extremely smooth jumps.
15. What will the author most probably discuss next?
A. The media literacy lessons. B. The duties of social media.
C. The popularity of such videos. D. The threats to wildlife protection.

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。
Life as a student can be non-stop: homework, exams, and responsibilities often take over, and the things that truly light you up get pushed aside. When that happens, try spending some quiet time alone and ask yourself: What did I love doing as a kid that made time fly? ____16____ It’s simple, but it’s a good place to start rediscovering your hobbies and interests.
Have you ever been so into a game, drawing, or music that you completely lost track of time? That’s what is called the “flow state”. ____17____ I might find it on my roller skates, while you might find it through basketball or writing stories. When you enter this state, it lifts your general happiness.
Even so, many of us feel bad for taking time for hobbies. We’re often pressured to live a certain way: work hard, achieve measurable success, and always stay busy. However, if you keep pushing yourself without a break, you’ll finally run out. ____18____ But it gets easier over time. Having a hobby isn’t a waste of time — it’s a way to renew your energy.
The good news is, you don’t need hours of free time to enjoy your hobbies. If what you love isn’t something you can do during the day, look for tiny moments of joy. ____19____ You could also play basketball for ten minutes after school. These small breaks become little islands of peace in a busy student life.
____20____ Start small, stay gentle with yourself, and remember: this isn’t selfish — it’s self-care. Being calm, happy, and at peace is your right, as a human being.
A. So, make time to do what you love.
B. You could read a few pages before bed.
C. The path to it, though, is different for everyone.
D. You may realize how much fun you have missed.
E. Learning to feel comfortable caring for yourself takes time.
F. This state of mind is not as difficult to achieve as you might think.
G. Take a pen and paper, and note down what makes you feel most alive.

Chloe Dalton, a British writer, once found a lost rabbit near her home. Though she had little ____21____ with animals — having always wanted a pet but never getting one — she was determined to keep it.
To ____22____ the creature, Chloe turned to her family for advice and sought help from the Rabbit Preservation Trust’s website. ____23____, she even learned a lot from 18th century poems by William Cowper, who kept rabbits himself back then. Most importantly, she chose to keep the rabbit free, never ____24____ it, as freedom was something she deeply valued.
This small ____25____ changed Chloe. Earlier on, city life had dulled her ____26____, as she was often too busy to be aware of sounds, colors, and movements around her. But with the rabbit, she began to ____27____ its curious eyes, playful jumps, and quiet moments — tiny ____28____ that soon became treasured material for her writing.
When Chloe worked on her book Raising Rabbit, something ____29____ happened: this rabbit gave birth to two babies and left them in her study. So much of her ____30____ time was spent with these tiny creatures hiding nearby; their ____31____ became part of her story.
The book didn’t just share her story — it inspired her to do more. Now she is ____32____ to set up a “closed season” for not shooting rabbits in England, ____33____ them during breeding time (繁殖期).
All of this dates back to that simple, kind act: caring for a small creature ____34____ true writing, and that writing has gone on to ____35____ care to more people, one page at a time.

One day she asked me ____37____ China is still like what it was in the old comic The Adventures of Tintin, which describes China in the 1930s. Of course not.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was a hot day in New York City. I had brunch with a friend and picked up my new glasses. All done and headed back on the train. I wanted to yell at a couple of people for their rude behavior, but wisely just sat quietly.
An old black gentleman entered the far end of the train car. In worn but neat clothes, he tipped his faded cap and greeted everyone with a warm “Good afternoon, folks.” Most ignored him, with cold blank faces. Then, he started to sing. I didn’t turn my head, but I felt a smile in my soul. Many people ask for money on the train, but I always feel happy when someone offers music instead. It feels like a gift.
I let the notes settle in for a second before my eyes wandered. A young boy across from me, maybe ten, watched him, swaying (摇摆) to the rhythm, his mother too distracted by her phone to notice.
He started his second song and my heart did a happy dance. “Lean on me, when you’re not strong. I’ll be your friend...” I love that song! Without thinking, I softly sang a little harmony with him. Right away, I decided he could have the $5 bill in my purse.
He looked tall and thin, but he had a strong voice and kind energy. Life had clearly been hard for him, but he still stood tall and carried himself with quiet dignity.
I rolled the bill tightly and waited for him to make his way to me. He held the overhead bar to steady himself as he inched down the car, pausing briefly beside each seat like he was waiting for a sign — though no one glanced up. No one was making any moves to give him coins or reach for their wallet.
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。
Paragraph 1: Somehow, he noticed me singing along.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: It was still hot and sticky inside the car, but something had changed.

On a guided tour of Kakadu National Park, I fell for every joke my Australian guide played on me. Dining alone was the worst. I felt like a loser when I requested a table for one. I was certain everyone was watching me, wondering if I was single, or simply friendless.
It turned out someone was watching me. During my last solo supper in Australia, a British woman came over. “I’m sorry, but I just have to say something,” she said. “I think you’re unbelievably brave. I’ve seen you around town this week and you look like you’re having so much fun. I wish I had the courage to travel on my own like you.”
It took a while for her words to really hit me, but during my next 21 years of traveling solo, I heard people express the same feeling again and again.
I became a solo traveler out of necessity, rather than choice: As a travel writer I spend a lot of time on my own. Also, as my friends got busy with their own lives, I discovered I had to travel solo if I wanted to travel at all. I quickly learned to love it, though — and now, I have complete freedom to decide what to do and when to do it. Over time, I’ve gained a strong sense of independence, and even learned to appreciate loneliness.

Researchers in Switzerland recently taught the one-armed, four-legged ANYmal search and rescue robot to play badminton against a human. This is far from the first time robots have been trained to play sports. They’ve run marathons, skied and played ping pong. There’s even a football RoboCup.
However, it’s not all fun and games. “Sports require skills,” says D’ Andrea, a professor in robotics and AI. “If you want to create robots that have the ability to deal with the physical environment, you can use sports as a way of training.” The skills can then be put to work in environments that are too dull, dirty, or dangerous for humans. Sports also catch people’s attention and serve as an interesting way to show new technological advances.
Though the skills robots learn from sports are mostly used in factories or dangerous jobs, the technology is already becoming a big part of sports themselves. For example, technologies like electronic line-calling (ELC) are taking the place of line judges in tennis games.
However, there’s doubt whether this improves the viewer experience. For the fans, the joy of sports is that you never know what will happen. If a robot tennis player takes the field, it might attract people’s attention at first but, after a while, would anyone want to watch it? “People enjoy watching sports because they connect with the athletes. Anything that lets robots play instead of these athletes is not going to be a success,” says D’Andrea.
The same is likely true for anything where human’s feelings play a central part. For over twenty years, the Japanese government has spent billions in developing robots for elderly people in care homes. But the use has been low, and it has so far shown the robots create more work for carers than they alleviate.
There’s a difference between pushing what tech can do and applying those tools in the wrong places. So, for now, sports people can rest easy. “I think we have to be careful that we don’t go too far just to save time and effort,” says D’Andrea. “I would ask the question: why do we want to take the place of people?”
8. Why are sports used to train robots?
A. To test robots’ sporting ability. B. To improve athletes’ sports skills.
C. To draw public attention to sports. D. To develop skills for real-world tasks.
9. What is the key to a successful viewer experience?
A. Match results. B. Human’s feelings.
C. Athletes’ efforts. D. Advanced technologies.
10. What does the underlined word “alleviate” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A. Arrange. B. Stress. C. Reduce. D. Change.
11. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Robot Athletes? All for Fun! B. Should Robots Take the Field?
C. Sports Robots: The Latest Invention D. ANYmal: Robots for Dangerous Jobs
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了瑞士研究人员教机器人打羽毛球,阐述用体育运动训练机器人的原因,讨论机器人参与体育对观众体验的影响及技术应用的思考,探讨机器人是否该进入体育领域。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段““Sports require skills,” says D’ Andrea, a professor in robotics and AI. “If you want to create robots that have the ability to deal with the physical environment, you can use sports as a way of training.” The skills can then be put to work in environments that are too dull, dirty, or dangerous for humans. (“体育运动需要技能,”机器人技术和人工智能教授D’ Andrea说。“如果你想创造能够应对物理环境的机器人,你可以用体育运动作为一种训练方式。”这些技能随后可以应用于对人类来说过于枯燥、肮脏或危险的环境中。)”可知,用体育运动训练机器人是为了开发用于现实世界任务的技能。故选D项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“For the fans, the joy of sports is that you never know what will happen. (对于球迷来说,体育运动的乐趣在于你永远不知道会发生什么。)”以及“People enjoy watching sports because they connect with the athletes. Anything that lets robots play instead of these athletes is not going to be a success (人们喜欢看体育比赛是因为他们与运动员有情感联系。任何让机器人代替这些运动员比赛的事情都不会成功)”可知,观众体验成功的关键在于人类的情感。故选B项。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第五段“For over twenty years, the Japanese government has spent billions in developing robots for elderly people in care homes. But the use has been low, and it has so far shown the robots create more work for carers than they alleviate. (二十多年来,日本政府在为养老院的老年人开发机器人上花费了数十亿美元。但使用率很低,到目前为止,这些机器人给护理人员带来的工作量比它们alleviate的工作量还要多。)”可知,create more work和alleviate是相反语义,机器人给护理人员带来的工作量比减轻的工作量多,所以alleviate意思是“减轻,减少”,与Reduce意思相近。故选C项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。文章开篇介绍了瑞士研究人员教机器人打羽毛球,接着阐述了用体育运动训练机器人的原因,然后讨论了机器人参与体育运动对观众体验的影响,还提到日本开发养老机器人使用率低的情况,最后强调要谨慎应用技术,思考为什么要取代人类。整体围绕机器人是否应该进入体育领域展开讨论。所以“Should Robots Take the Field? (机器人应该进入体育领域吗?)” 最合适作为标题。故选B项。

Have you ever seen an animal video online that made you stop and wonder? Videos showing a wolf taking care of a rabbit, or a lion walking calmly through a small town are now spreading widely. This is possible because of AI technology. However, scientists warn such popular videos may hurt real wildlife protection and spread wrong ideas about nature.
A study in Conservation Biology points out that AI-generated animal videos create an untrue world, leading to wrong ideas about animal behavior and widening the gap between people and nature. Co-author José Guerrero-Casado stresses the danger of false (虚假的) information. For example, videos showing birds killing “bad” snakes might make people less willing to protect snakes, and create false ideas about animals that are already in danger.
The effect on children is especially worrying. These videos can give them wrong ideas about how people and animals really get along. When children discover that real-world animals do not act as they do in these made-up videos, it can have the opposite result, finally making them feel less connected to nature. This risk grows as young people increasingly turn to social media for information.
So, how can one recognize these videos? Experts suggest looking for a few signs: unnatural animal movements that appear too smooth or seem impossible in real life; light and shadows that do not look quite right; and small details like fur or feathers that appear unclear or repeat in an unusual way.
To deal with these risks, the research team suggests putting more effort into education, like teaching media literacy (素养) in schools. As another co-author Francisco Sánchez says, the goal is to make sure “children learn early that there are no lions living here.” While they think this is important, the researchers also say that school lessons alone cannot stop the spread of false information made by AI. This leads to an important question about who else in society needs to help solve this problem, if school education is not enough.
12. How does the author present the issue in the first paragraph?
A. By giving examples. B. By making a comparison.
C. By quoting an expert. D. By sharing an experience.
13. What can be inferred about AI-generated animal videos?
A. They make children love animals less. B. They mainly focus on species in danger.
C. They may make animals seem dangerous. D. They create a false understanding of nature.
14. According to paragraph 4, which is most probably an AI-generated video?
A. A parrot with clear feathers. B. A cat with natural shadows.
C. A dog with unusual marks. D. A frog with extremely smooth jumps.
15. What will the author most probably discuss next?
A. The media literacy lessons. B. The duties of social media.
C. The popularity of such videos. D. The threats to wildlife protection.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章指出AI生成动物视频的误导性危害,介绍其识别方法,并呼吁学校等社会各界共同应对这一问题。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Have you ever seen an animal video online that made you stop and wonder? Videos showing a wolf taking care of a rabbit, or a lion walking calmly through a small town are now spreading widely. This is possible because of AI technology. (你是否曾在网上看到过某个动物视频,让你不禁驻足思考?比如有视频展示一只狼在照顾一只兔子,或者一只狮子在平静地穿过一个小城镇的画面,如今这类视频正广泛传播开来,这得益于人工智能技术)”可知,作者通过列举这两个具体的视频例子来引出AI生成动物视频这一话题。故选A。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“A study in Conservation Biology points out that AI-generated animal videos create an untrue world, leading to wrong ideas about animal behavior and widening the gap between people and nature. (《保护生物学》杂志的一项研究指出,AI生成的动物视频创造了一个不真实的世界,导致人们对动物行为产生错误认知,并扩大了人与自然之间的隔阂)”及第三段“The effect on children is especially worrying. These videos can give them wrong ideas about how people and animals really get along. (对儿童的影响尤其令人担忧。这些视频会让他们对人与动物的真实相处方式产生错误认识)”可知,这类视频会让人们对自然产生错误的理解。故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“So, how can one recognize these videos? Experts suggest looking for a few signs: unnatural animal movements that appear too smooth or seem impossible in real life; light and shadows that do not look quite right; and small details like fur or feathers that appear unclear or repeat in an unusual way. (那么,如何才能辨别出这些视频呢?专家建议寻找一些迹象:留意一些异常的动物动作,这些动作看起来过于流畅,而在现实生活中是不太可能出现的;还要留意光线和阴影的分布是否不太自然;还有一些细微之处,比如毛发或羽毛的呈现不够清晰,或者呈现出一种不寻常的重复现象)”可知,“极其流畅的跳跃”属于AI生成视频的典型特征。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“This leads to an important question about who else in society needs to help solve this problem, if school education is not enough. (如果学校教育还不够,这就引出了一个重要问题:社会上还有谁需要帮助解决这个问题)”可知,作者接下来最有可能讨论除了学校之外,其他社会主体(如媒体、政府等)的责任。“The duties of social media. (社交媒体的责任)”属于社会主体责任的范畴。故选B。

Life as a student can be non-stop: homework, exams, and responsibilities often take over, and the things that truly light you up get pushed aside. When that happens, try spending some quiet time alone and ask yourself: What did I love doing as a kid that made time fly? ____16____ It’s simple, but it’s a good place to start rediscovering your hobbies and interests.
Have you ever been so into a game, drawing, or music that you completely lost track of time?

These small breaks become little islands of peace in a busy student life.
____20____ Start small, stay gentle with yourself, and remember: this isn’t selfish — it’s self-care. Being calm, happy, and at peace is your right, as a human being.
A. So, make time to do what you love.
B. You could read a few pages before bed.
C. The path to it, though, is different for everyone.
D. You may realize how much fun you have missed.
E. Learning to feel comfortable caring for yourself takes time.

第二节(满分25分)
47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was a hot day in New York City. I had brunch with a friend and picked up my new glasses. All done and headed back on the train. I wanted to yell at a couple of people for their rude behavior, but wisely just sat quietly.
An old black gentleman entered the far end of the train car. In worn but neat clothes, he tipped his faded cap and greeted everyone with a warm “Good afternoon, folks.” Most ignored him, with cold blank faces. Then, he started to sing. I didn’t turn my head, but I felt a smile in my soul. Many people ask for money on the train, but I always feel happy when someone offers music instead. It feels like a gift.
I let the notes settle in for a second before my eyes wandered. A young boy across from me, maybe ten, watched him, swaying (摇摆) to the rhythm, his mother too distracted by her phone to notice.
He started his second song and my heart did a happy dance. “Lean on me, when you’re not strong. I’ll be your friend...” I love that song! Without thinking, I softly sang a little harmony with him. Right away, I decided he could have the $5 bill in my purse.
He looked tall and thin, but he had a strong voice and kind energy. Life had clearly been hard for him, but he still stood tall and carried himself with quiet dignity.
I rolled the bill tightly and waited for him to make his way to me. He held the overhead bar to steady himself as he inched down the car, pausing briefly beside each seat like he was waiting for a sign — though no one glanced up. No one was making any moves to give him coins or reach for their wallet.
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。
Paragraph 1: Somehow, he noticed me singing along.

Paragraph 2: It was still hot and sticky inside the car, but something had changed.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Somehow, he noticed me singing along. He looked up and slowly walked toward me, his eyes shining with surprise and warmth. I slipped the rolled bill into his rough hand, and he gave me a grateful nod. Then, leaning closer, he whispered, “Sing with me, sister.” Without hesitation, I joined him. Our voices blended, his strong and soulful, mine soft but steady. For a moment, the crowded train car felt like a tiny concert hall, filled not with heat and impatience, but with harmony.
It was still hot and sticky inside the car, but something had changed. One by one, passengers lifted their heads, listening. The young boy’s swaying turned into clapping, his laughter breaking through the dull silence. A few others began humming along, and even his mother put down her phone. When the song ended, coins and bills appeared in the man’s cap from every direction. He stood taller, pride glowing in his smile, and I felt a quiet joy — proof that even in a weary city, music could open hearts and bring strangers together.
【解析】
【导语】故事以人物为线索展开,讲述纽约市炎热的一天,作者和朋友吃早午餐、取新眼镜后乘火车返程。车上一位衣衫陈旧但整洁的黑人老先生主动问候众人并唱歌,多数乘客无视他,作者却很喜欢这如同礼物的音乐,还跟着轻声和声,打算把钱包里的5美元给他。
【详解】1.段落续写
①根据第一段首句“不知怎么的,他注意到我在跟着唱。”可知,接下来可描写他靠近作者,并邀请作者一起合唱,他们歌声改变了车厢的氛围。
②根据第二段首句“车里仍然又热又粘,但有些事情发生了变化。”可知,接下来可描写乘客们的变化(注视着、跟着哼唱、给钱)以及作者的感悟。
2.续写线索:他注意到作者——靠近作者并邀请合唱——改变车厢的氛围——乘客们也加入(有的注视着、有的哼唱)——作者的感悟
3.词类激活
行为类
①走向:walk toward/approach
②交织:blend/mix
③抬起:lift/raise
情绪类
①温情:warmth/affection
②感激的:grateful/appreciative
【点睛】【高分句型1】He looked up and slowly walked toward me, his eyes shining with surprise and warmth.(运用了“名词+现在分词”的独立主格结构)
【高分句型2】 He stood taller, pride glowing in his smile, and I felt a quiet joy — proof that even in a weary city, music could open hearts and bring strangers together.(运用了that引导的同位语从句)
