[Tip]
由主旨推断引语的含义
文章结尾引用谚语一般是为了突出文章主题,让读者更清晰地理解文章的主旨大意,故谚语的含义应与文章的主题一致。反过来,在推测谚语的含义时,也可借助文章的主旨,如本文讲述的是尼古拉斯·温顿的善行,故该谚语应该与强调善行的意义有关,由此可知本题答案。
(二)阅读表达
1.Why did the parents fear that they would never see their children again?
________________________________________________________
2.Why do you think it took such a long time for Winton's actions to become known?
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Because they were Jewish and under the control of the Nazis.
Because,for the most part,Winton did not mention the children he saved.Winton might have thought that it was normal to help others when they were in trouble,so it was not worth mentioning.
3.If you were Winton, would you tell your actions to others?
______________________________________________

本文属于“人物传记”类文体,采用了倒叙手法介绍背景,然后以时间为线索具体介绍了尼古拉斯·温顿的生平,着重介绍了他的国际主义精神和他对社会的贡献。“人物传记”类文体的阅读技法:
No, I would only do what I thought should be done.
1.抓时间线,理人物生平。根据文中出现的时间关键词,梳理典型事例,理顺人物生平,明晰文章的行文脉络。如本文根据每段的时间词可直接厘清尼古拉斯·温顿的生平:故事背景→温顿早年的经历→温顿在1938到1939年间拯救了669名儿童→温顿在二战期间的工作经历并淡出人们的视野→温顿在1988年上了电视节目后重新被人们关注→温顿获得的荣誉→温顿在2015年去世。
2.分析文中事例,把握人物特点。传记的材料通常比较翔实,是作者从该人物繁杂的经历中选取的典型事例,能集中表现人物的人格特点。

课文写法借鉴
(一)赏用词之妙
1.In Prague, Winton saw people living in terrible conditions and whose lives were in danger.
赏析:本句中的in terrible conditions表明人们的生活条件恶劣;in danger暗示了人们的生命都难以得到保障。句子用词简洁,但分量很重,准确地反映出人们生活在水深火热之中,生活真是不易!
2.A shocked Winton watched as the majority of people rose to their feet.
赏析:shocked 在此意为“震惊的”,暗示了温顿根本没有意识到自己行为的伟大,从侧面映衬了他高尚的品格。
[提能训练]
①(单句语法填空)Everyone in the street was ________ (shock) when they heard the news.
②(完成句子)We should save the endangered animals living_____
________________.
我们应该拯救生活在恶劣条件下的濒危动物
shocked
in
terrible conditions
(二)赏句式之高
1.These are among the 669 children, most of them Jewish, that Nicholas Winton will go on to save from death at the hands of the Nazis.
赏析:most of them Jewish 是插入的独立主格结构,在句中作状语,补充说明了这669名儿童的身份;that引导的是定语从句,先行词是the 669 children,具体说明了这些孩子是尼古拉斯·温顿即将从纳粹手里解救的人。
2.That all changed in 1988 when his wife Grete found a forgotten journal at home.
赏析:when引导的是定语从句,修饰1988。作者用此句承上启下,对情节进行反转,指出到了1988年,一切都发生了改变。
[提能训练]
①(单句语法填空)It all began in 2020 ______ my father found a hidden box in his garden.
②(完成句子)These are the 15 volunteers,_____________________, ____________________________last weekend.
这些就是上周末帮忙打扫公园的15名志愿者,他们都是青少年。
when
all of them teenagers
that helped clean up the park
(三)赏描摹之韵(场景描写)
It is August 1939, and a group of frightened children are boarding a train at Prague's Wilson Station. Their heartbroken parents do not join them. Indeed, they fear they may never see their children again. But they know that their children will live.
赏析:此处描写了二战中犹太父母在车站送别孩子的心碎场面。作者没有使用复杂的修辞,而是通过使用精准的形容词和动词让场景充满画面感:frightened写出了被迫独自逃生的孩子们心中的惊恐,heartbroken 则写出了与孩子分离时父母伤心欲绝的心情,fear一词则呈现了对将来不可能再重聚的忧惧。这些词生动重现了战争年代生离死别的一幕,易使读者共情。
(四)赏修辞之功
As the Chinese saying goes, “A kind-hearted person lives a long life.”
赏析:文章的结尾引用了一句中国名言来强调主题,突显文章的立意。以引语、格言或警句结尾不仅能使读者对文章主题留下深刻的印象,还可以增强文章的表达效果和说服力。
[提能训练|翻译并熟记下面的名言警句]
①Union is strength.
________________
②As the saying goes, practice makes perfect.
___________________
③As the popular Chinese saying goes, “Roads lead to riches.”
____________________________________________
团结就是力量。
俗话说,熟能生巧。
正如中国一句流行的谚语所说: “路能致富。”

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Emily, a 14-year-old teenager, walked through her town one afternoon.Her eyes were drawn to the sight of people without homes on street corners, trembling (颤抖) against the chill.It was a scene that stirred something deep within her — a desire to make a difference, no matter how small.
Emily decided to turn her love of baking into a force for good.She whipped (搅打) cream, mixed flour, and baked cookies and cakes in her family kitchen.With the support of her friends and family, she set up a colorful stall in her bustling neighborhood, offering her homemade treats to passers-by in exchange for donations.
The response was overwhelming.People were not only touched by Emily's handmade cookies but also inspired by her spirit.Before long, donations were pouring in.In just a few short weeks, Emily had raised over $1,000 — a symbol of one's kindness to ignite a community's generosity.
But Emily's heart was set on doing even more.Inspired by the success of her bake sale, she came up with the idea of organizing a charity run.A community-wide event that would bring people together in support of a common cause.She reached out to local businesses and called for volunteers to help her realize the project.On the day of the charity run, participants ran under the clear, open sky, and the running campaign raised over $5,000 for the local homeless shelter.
For Emily, the true reward lay not in the dollars raised or the miles run but in the knowledge that she had touched the hearts of her community and shown that even the smallest act of kindness can make a difference to the world.

I vividly remember the day I first stepped into Marguerite-d' Youville Elementary School in Saguenay, which looked totally different. It all started back in 2017, and a group of Quebec-based education advocates, including celebrated architect Pierre Thibault, broke with tradition. They persuaded the then education minister to kick in$3 million to create Lab-École, a non-profit aimed at developing learning environments that would make children excited to go to school. Lab-École's model, inspired by primary schools in Denmark, Finland and Japan, included large windows, natural materials, and spacious room for kitchens, common spaces and play.
In 2019, six schools were chosen to receive Lab-École makeovers, one of which was Marguerite-d' Youville Elementary School. The $16.75-million design featured three interconnected, all-wood pavilions (亭子) with sloping roofs reminding all of Saguenay's Little White House.
When I walk into the first wing of the school, it houses offices and kindergarten classrooms, while the second, central wing has a cooking lab and multi-purpose creative lab, along with a community learning center that doubles as a library and gathering space. In the
third wing, the school's 12 elementary classrooms are spread out between three homey cottage-like structures. Outside, the yard is surrounded by the U-shaped main building, protecting the area from high winds and other wild weather. There's an outdoor classroom, a sports circuit and lots of climbable play structures made with repurposed wood from old buildings. Bio-retention basins are built into the garden to manage storm water runoff. Here, we had the chance to learn the ins and outs of urban agriculture.
After doors opened in August of 2023, the structure received good reviews from its 290 pupils, including me and the public, who make regular use of its park and kitchen. The province has no plans to extend Lab-École after all its schools are completed this year, but the program has already aced its assignment: to get Canadians thinking differently about what a school can be.

Ⅱ.阅读七选五
How to Be Productive During Difficult Times
When we are struggling, or when we have a hard time focusing, we may turn to others for help.We may even wish we had a hero to help us.Well, today here is some advice for you.
Turn ourselves into our own heroes.
When we make ourselves heroes, we not only gain focus but also a sense of purpose. 9 For example, it can give us hope as stories in the books often do.In stories, writers often give their hero, the main person in the story, a purpose. 10
Write out our tasks and ideas.
In stories, heroes also have tasks, which they want to finish, and ideas, which they see for themselves.So we can write out our tasks and ideas, not just for a project but for our life as well.With clear tasks and ideas, events in our life no longer seem to be separate events. 11 There's just a lot of value in having tasks and ideas.
12
When we know our strengths, we can use them fully.In difficult times, we can make our life easier by focusing on our strengths.It is even more important to identify weaknesses.All heroes have them.On their journey they face their weaknesses and learn from them.
Have small goals within a larger goal.
As we know, the hero's journey is not a one-time thing.It is a journey we are on in our entire life. 13 Our life's journey is ongoing and ever-changing.We should be realistic with our goals and be kind to ourselves, especially during difficult times.
A.Learn from heroes in stories.
B.We often live a life without purpose.
C.Know our strengths and weaknesses.
D.They become part of our larger stories.
E.So have small goals that we can measure in some way.
F.We can do the same for ourselves and identify our purposes.
G.Making ourselves the heroes in our own stories helps us in many ways.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了在困难时期的一些应对方法。
9.选G 上文“When we make ourselves heroes ...a sense of purpose.”说明把自己当成英雄会让我们获得专注和使命感。下文“For example, it can ...often do.”举例说明把自己当英雄可以带给我们的帮助。G项承上启下,说明把自己当英雄在很多方面都能帮助我们,符合语境。故选G项。
10.选F 上文“In stories ...a purpose.”说明故事中的主要人物都有一个要完成的目标。F项说明我们也可以和故事中的英雄一样给自己确定目标,符合语境。故选F项。
11.选D 上文“With clear ...events.”说明给生活中的事件确立使命和愿景的原因。D项承接上文,说明每一件事有了使命和愿景,便不再独立,它们就会变成我们更大故事的一部分。故选D项。
12.选C 根据下文内容可知,下一段讲述我们应该知道自己的优缺点的必要性。C项引出下文,说明我们应该知道自己的优缺点,适合作小标题。故选C项。
13.选E 根据“Have small goals within a larger goal.”可知,该段主要讲述设立小目标的事。上文“As we know ...life.”给出前提,说明作为英雄,会经历多次目标的设立。下文“Our life's journey ...times.”说明生活是变化的,所以应该根据实际调整目标。E项承接上文,说明应该设立小目标来应对实际情况。故选E项。
