Extensive Meal Plan Options A Meal Plan gives you access to both the Commons (Kennesaw Campus) and Stingers (Marietta Campus) dining halls. Dining Dollars can be used at any restaurant, food truck or the Market on either campus. If you live in on-campus housing a Meal Plan is part of your on-campus room and board. Once Housing and Residence Life fees are applied to your student account, residential students receive a standard Meal Plan based on your earned credit hours, and the cost is charged to your student account, which you can view on Owl Express. If you live off campus, purchasing a Meal Plan is easy through our mobile ordering app. Supportive Dining System Meal Plan charges for both residents and commuters (通勤者) are used to support our award-winning dining facilities. University Dining supports local businesses and food providers, national retail brands and over 500 staff members to assure our residents and commuters can focus on class rather than where to get their next meal. Easy Refund Procedure To request a refund for your Non-Residential/Commuter Meal Plan, you must contact University Dining using the provided contact form.

B Dr. Marie-Luce Chevalier, a Belgian/French geologist (地质学家), has been working a as a research professor at the Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences in Beijing since 2010. For the past 14 years, she has been studying active faults (断层) in the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau and how they move. In 2021, Chevalier was presented with the Chinese Government Friendship Award in appreciation of her contributions to the development of China’s disaster assessment system of earthquake and the promotion of cooperation and exchanges between China and other countries. Chevalier’s choice of China as a research destination was not made by chance. Her research has primarily focused on the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau. She had also collaborated (合作) with Chinese scientists from the beginning of her master’s program. “When they asked if I wanted to join their team after my post-doctorate, I gladly accepted and have no regrets. My fourteen years in China have provided me with a constant source of fresh personal and professional experiences,” she said, adding that her mother’s interest in Chinese culture contributed to her decision to work in the country. Chevalier will continue to research active faults in and around Xizang actively and contribute to our understanding of how past climate developed to work towards predicting future climate change, another topic near and dear to her heart. She will accomplish this by conducting field research, sharing her findings with scientific community, teaching students who will become tomorrow’s scientists, and raising awareness among local populations about the risks they may face in their lifetime. Chevalier’s mother went to Xizang once, realising her lifelong dreams. Chevalier keeps raising her daughter in this safe and highly international environment, Beijing. When people ask her daughter where she is from at four years old, she proudly answers, “China!” Chevalier wants to learn more about the Chinese language and culture, continue to enjoy the happiness of the Chinese people, and look forward to seeing what China achieves next! 24. What achievement did Chevalier get? A. She established the Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences B. She launched the research on the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau. C. She won the Chinese Government Friendship Award. D. She developed earthquake prediction system for China. 25. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. When Chevalier began her master’s program. B. What Chevalier experienced in China. C. How Chinese culture has affected Chevalier. D. Why Chevalier bases her research in China. 26. Which of the following best describes Chevalier? A. Professional and committed. B. Sympathetic and open minded. C. Humble and reserved. D. Innovative and self-disciplined. 27. Why does Chevalier mention her daughter in the text? A. To highlight China’s secure environment. B. To prove her close family connections. C. To emphasise her bond with China. D. To advocate Chinese learning C Research has shown that physical appearance has a big impact on a person’s mental health, social interactions and opportunities in life. Attractive people often benefit from social biases (偏见), while those seen as less attractive may face challenges like lower confidence, social exclusion and fewer opportunities. A study done in 2022 showed how society’s views on appearance influence interactions. Participants were shown photos of people with different looks and asked to rate their intelligence, likability and trustworthiness. The results were clear: people considered more attractive received higher ratings in all categories. Furthermore, attractive people were more likely to be described as confident and capable, while less attractive individuals were often marginalized or associated with negative stereotypes (刻板印象). This bias was especially noticeable in group settings, where attractive people were more likely to be included and listened to during discussions. The emotional impact of this bias is also significant. Attractive people often have higher self-respect because they get more praises and positive feedback. However, this advantage comes with pressure, as attractive individuals may feel stressed about maintaining their appearance, leading to anxiety as they age. On the other hand, less attractive people often struggle with feelings of low self-worth, which contribute to depression and anxiety. The workplace is also affected by these biases. Research shows that attractive people are more likely to be hired, promoted and earn higher salaries. Employers often naturally link attractiveness to ability, confidence and leadership qualities. This creates a disadvantage for people who don’t meet traditional beauty standards, forcing them to work harder to gain recognition. To address these biases, researchers emphasize the importance of promoting inclusivity and challenging conventional social concepts. By encouraging self-acceptance and appreciating different kinds of beauty, society can create a fairer environment that values individuals for their character and abilities, not just their appearance. 28. What does the underlined word “marginalized” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Blamed. B. Disvauled. C. Included. D. Abused. 29. What impacts can appearance bias have on people? A. Employers value looks over abilities. B. Attractive people have better mental health. C. Less attractive people are less likely to succeed. D. Both attractive and less attractive face emotional challenges. 30. How can society create a fairer environment? A. By overlooking outer beauty. B. By meeting social expectations. C. By advocating enjoying diverse beauty. D. By applying universal beauty standards. 31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To call for a fairer and more inclusive society. B. To explain how appearance impacts individual life. C. To address the psychological effects of appearance. D. To argue that only attractive people can succeed in life. D For long, Preifer Fall Trail (路线) was a most popular attraction in Big Sur. Annually, thousands of people hiked the trail. Unfortunately, the trail, along with stairs, signs, railings, an observation station and wooden bridges, was destroyed in the 2008 Basin Complex Fire. But now a new trail has risen from the burned land. With its amazing rocky coastline and mountains, Big Sur, the writer Henry Miller once said, is “the face of the earth as the creator intended it to look.” But the landscape always suffers natural disasters. There have been three major wildfires in Big Sur in the past years. “You can still see the impacts there,” said John Hiles, a state parks repair team leader, pointing to black marks 30 feet up a huge redwood. Parks planners designed a new track, moving the trail out of the river to reduce its impact on the environment. People from the California protection group, state parks department and the nonprofit organization put in 66,000 hours of work over the past four years. They built 160 redwood stairs and dragged hundreds of 16-foot-long redwood sticks by hand to build railings. They removed 4,150 square feet of old building stuff, enough to cover a basketball court. They used iron cables and pulleys (缆线和滑轮) to build a 70-foot long wooden bridge over the hills. “Nature is probably the best place to learn,” Hiles said. “More than any college or school, you learn so many life lessons out here.” However, the huge Soberanes Fire s wept through the area in 2016, putting a stop to the work. When they began again in 2017, great river storms flooded the area and damaged part of Highway 1. Everybody gathered around this project. They saw the loss. They missed it. They wanted it to come back. They kept combining efforts. It’s been a long journey, but worth the wait. 32. What can we learn about Preifer Fall Trail? A. It is an attraction rebuilt in 2008. B. It met with many natural disasters. C. It features man-made landscape. D. It is an addition to a previous track. 33. How did the people reduce the impact of the trail on the environment? A. By moving the trail off watercourse. B. By using huge redwood sticks. C. By recycling the old building stuff. D. By applying iron cables and pulleys. 34. What can best describe the people’s work? A. Limiting and typical. B. Adventurous but smooth. C. Mysterious and attractive. D. Tough but rewarding. 35. What is the text mainly about? A. The rise and fall of a hiking trail. B. California protection projects. C. The recovery of a lost attraction. D. Journeys into wilderness. 第二节 七选五 (共5小题; 每小题3分, 满分15分) The easiest way to lose those extra weight and stay fit and healthy is running since it is both accessible and cheap.

For decades, it had been a heaven for book lovers, with its weathered wooden sign and the slow, warm time inside. But now, the bookstore was closing down. The news shocked David, a college student who had spent his childhood reading there. The smell of old paper and the warm light had accompanied his growth. He could not bear the thought of losing the bookstore. As the news spread across the neighborhood, everyone looked worried and upset. The reason for the closure was a woman named Sarah Chen. Representing a large development company, she had made a generous offer to buy the building. She saw the space not for its shelves of stories, but for its potential as a trendy café, an upgrade to earn more money. To her, it was just business. Mr. Hopkins, now old and tired, felt defeated. “Maybe it’s time, David,” he sighed, his hand resting on a dusty copy of his favorite novel. “The world has moved on.” On the day of the final meeting, David arrived early, his backpack filled with items he had collected over the years from the store: a bookmark from his tenth birthday, a receipt(小票) from the first book he had bought with his own money, a photograph of himself and Mr. Hopkins taken during a summer reading program. He walked to the children’s section and drew a small, worn copy of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. The cover was faded, the pages yellowed, but the spine (书脊) still held strong. Sarah arrived precisely at 2:00 p.m. She wasted no time getting down to business, reviewing the contract (合同) with Mr. Hopkins. David watched from the sidelines, his heart pounding in his chest. He couldn’t let this happen — not without trying to make his voice heard. Taking a deep breath, David stepped forward bravely. He took out the bookmark, receipt and photo from his backpack carefully, and told Sarah the story behind each item. He said the bookstore was his childhood shelter and had witnessed the growth of many people in the neighborhood. His voice trembled with emotion, and tears filled his eyes. Sarah put down the contract, listened quietly, and her expression softened gradually as she watched the precious items. A decision was made to combine a bookstore and a café in one project, and the construction began. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 山西大学附中 2025～2026学年高一第二学期3月(总第一次)模块诊断 英语试题 考试时间：120分钟 满分：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) 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 How is the weather?

Why does the speaker mention Diana? A. To show a different path for singers. B. To let singers value their good voices. C. To encourage singers to get over anxiety. 20. What do we know about Diana? A. She avoids singing in the studio. B. She is extremely nervous on stage. C. She prepares in her car before recording. 【答案】17. B 18. C 19. A 20. C 【解析】 【原文】W: Hello, everyone. I know most of you want to be singers, but I’m afraid to say, it’s all hard work. However, the rewards are beyond anything else, so it’s a fair deal. If you have got a good voice, then treasure it. Don’t be anxious if it does get hurt — it’s impressive how it’ll recover. The important thing is to use it. Get out the campus and take every chance you can to sing in public. This experience will also help to feed and build your ambition to go on, to be better. Singing on stage to an appreciative audience is as good as life gets. And for those who don’t like public performance, if you’ve got a good voice — then maybe you’ll be like my friend Diana. Although she got over most of her anxiety about performing in public a few years ago, she still prefers studio singing, performing directly for CDs and so on. Nobody really sees her outside her home and the studio. Even warming up her voice for a recording performance is something she does in private, making noises while sitting in her car outside the studio building. I think she’s alarmed a few passers-by in her time! 第二部分 阅读理解 (共两节，满分60分) 第一节 (共15小题; 每小题3分，满分45分) A University Dining treats KSU students like our family, with a level of hospitality and quality that extends beyond the food we serve.

For the past 14 years, she has been studying active faults (断层) in the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau and how they move. In 2021, Chevalier was presented with the Chinese Government Friendship Award in appreciation of her contributions to the development of China’s disaster assessment system of earthquake and the promotion of cooperation and exchanges between China and other countries. Chevalier’s choice of China as a research destination was not made by chance. Her research has primarily focused on the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau. She had also collaborated (合作) with Chinese scientists from the beginning of her master’s program. “When they asked if I wanted to join their team after my post-doctorate, I gladly accepted and have no regrets. My fourteen years in China have provided me with a constant source of fresh personal and professional experiences,” she said, adding that her mother’s interest in Chinese culture contributed to her decision to work in the country. Chevalier will continue to research active faults in and around Xizang actively and contribute to our understanding of how past climate developed to work towards predicting future climate change, another topic near and dear to her heart. She will accomplish this by conducting field research, sharing her findings with scientific community, teaching students who will become tomorrow’s scientists, and raising awareness among local populations about the risks they may face in their lifetime. Chevalier’s mother went to Xizang once, realising her lifelong dreams. Chevalier keeps raising her daughter in this safe and highly international environment, Beijing. When people ask her daughter where she is from at four years old, she proudly answers, “China!” Chevalier wants to learn more about the Chinese language and culture, continue to enjoy the happiness of the Chinese people, and look forward to seeing what China achieves next! 24.

Her research has primarily focused on the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau. She had also collaborated (合作) with Chinese scientists from the beginning of her master’s program. “When they asked if I wanted to join their team after my post-doctorate, I gladly accepted and have no regrets. My fourteen years in China have provided me with a constant source of fresh personal and professional experiences,” she said, adding that her mother’s interest in Chinese culture contributed to her decision to work in the country.(谢瓦利埃选择中国作为研究目的地并非偶然。她的研究主要集中在青藏高原。她还在硕士课程开始时与中国科学家合作。“当他们问我博士毕业后是否想加入他们的团队时，我欣然接受并毫无悔意。我在中国的14年为我提供了源源不断的新的个人和专业经验，”她说，并补充说，她母亲对中国文化的兴趣促使她决定在该国工作。)”可知，本段主要讲述的是谢瓦利埃为什么将研究基地设在中国。故选D。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“For the past 14 years, she has been studying active faults (断层) in the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau and how they move.(在过去的14年里，她一直在研究青藏高原的活动断层及其运动方式。)”和文章第四段“Chevalier will continue to research active faults in and around Xizang actively and contribute to our understanding of how past climate developed to work towards predicting future climate change, another topic near and dear to her heart.

Attractive people often benefit from social biases (偏见), while those seen as less attractive may face challenges like lower confidence, social exclusion and fewer opportunities. A study done in 2022 showed how society’s views on appearance influence interactions. Participants were shown photos of people with different looks and asked to rate their intelligence, likability and trustworthiness. The results were clear: people considered more attractive received higher ratings in all categories. Furthermore, attractive people were more likely to be described as confident and capable, while less attractive individuals were often marginalized or associated with negative stereotypes (刻板印象). This bias was especially noticeable in group settings, where attractive people were more likely to be included and listened to during discussions. The emotional impact of this bias is also significant. Attractive people often have higher self-respect because they get more praises and positive feedback. However, this advantage comes with pressure, as attractive individuals may feel stressed about maintaining their appearance, leading to anxiety as they age. On the other hand, less attractive people often struggle with feelings of low self-worth, which contribute to depression and anxiety. The workplace is also affected by these biases. Research shows that attractive people are more likely to be hired, promoted and earn higher salaries. Employers often naturally link attractiveness to ability, confidence and leadership qualities. This creates a disadvantage for people who don’t meet traditional beauty standards, forcing them to work harder to gain recognition. To address these biases, researchers emphasize the importance of promoting inclusivity and challenging conventional social concepts. By encouraging self-acceptance and appreciating different kinds of beauty, society can create a fairer environment that values individuals for their character and abilities, not just their appearance. 28. What does the underlined word “marginalized” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Blamed. B. Disvauled. C. Included. D. Abused. 29. What impacts can appearance bias have on people? A. Employers value looks over abilities. B. Attractive people have better mental health. C. Less attractive people are less likely to succeed. D. Both attractive and less attractive face emotional challenges. 30. How can society create a fairer environment? A. By overlooking outer beauty. B. By meeting social expectations. C. By advocating enjoying diverse beauty. D. By applying universal beauty standards. 31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To call for a fairer and more inclusive society. B. To explain how appearance impacts individual life. C To address the psychological effects of appearance. D. To argue that only attractive people can succeed in life. 【答案】28. B 29. D 30. C 31. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要探讨了外貌对个人心理健康、社会互动和生活机会的影响，以及外貌偏见带来的情感挑战和职场影响，最后提出了通过促进包容性和挑战传统社会观念来创造更公平环境的建议。 【28题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第二段“people considered more attractive received higher ratings in all categories. Furthermore, attractive people were more likely to be described as confident and capable, while less attractive individuals were often … or associated with negative stereotypes (刻板印象).(被认为更有吸引力的人在所有类别中都获得了更高的评价。此外，有吸引力的人更可能被描述为自信且有能力，而不那么有吸引力的人则经常被……或与负面刻板印象联系在一起)”可知，有吸引力的人在各项评价中得分更高，而缺乏吸引力的人常与负面刻板印象相关联。通过“while”形成对比逻辑，可推断“marginalized”应与前文“被重视”含义相反，所以划线词的含义为“被轻视、贬低”。故选B项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The emotional impact of this bias is also significant. Attractive people often have higher self-respect because they get more praises and positive feedback. However, this advantage comes with pressure, as attractive individuals may feel stressed about maintaining their appearance, leading to anxiety as they age. On the other hand, less attractive people often struggle with feelings of low self-worth, which contribute to depression and anxiety.(这种偏见的情感影响也很显著。有魅力的人通常自尊心更强，因为他们会得到更多的赞扬和积极的反馈。然而，这种优势也伴随着压力，因为有魅力的人可能会因为要保持自己的外表而感到压力，随着年龄的增长，这会导致焦虑。另一方面，不太有魅力的人常常与低自尊感作斗争，这会导致抑郁和焦虑。)”可知，有魅力和不太有魅力的人都面临情感挑战。故选D项。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“To address these biases, researchers emphasize the importance of promoting inclusivity and challenging conventional social concepts. By encouraging self-acceptance and appreciating different kinds of beauty, society can create a fairer environment that values individuals for their character and abilities, not just their appearance.(为了解决这些偏见，研究人员强调了促进包容性和挑战传统社会观念的重要性。通过鼓励自我接纳和欣赏不同类型的美丽，社会可以创造一个更公平的环境，让人们因为自己的性格和能力而受到重视，而不仅仅是外表。)”，由此可知，社会可以通过倡导欣赏多样的美来创造一个更公平的环境。故选C项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，本文主要探讨了外貌对个人心理健康、社会互动和生活机会的影响，以及外貌偏见带来的情感挑战和职场影响，最后提出了通过促进包容性和挑战传统社会观念来创造更公平环境的建议，由此可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是呼吁建立一个更公平、更包容的社会。故选A项。 D For long, Preifer Fall Trail (路线) was a most popular attraction in Big Sur. Annually, thousands of people hiked the trail. Unfortunately, the trail, along with stairs, signs, railings, an observation station and wooden bridges, was destroyed in the 2008 Basin Complex Fire. But now a new trail has risen from the burned land. With its amazing rocky coastline and mountains, Big Sur, the writer Henry Miller once said, is “the face of the earth as the creator intended it to look.” But the landscape always suffers natural disasters. There have been three major wildfires in Big Sur in the past years. “You can still see the impacts there,” said John Hiles, a state parks repair team leader, pointing to black marks 30 feet up a huge redwood. Parks planners designed a new track, moving the trail out of the river to reduce its impact on the environment. People from the California protection group, state parks department and the nonprofit organization put in 66,000 hours of work over the past four years. They built 160 redwood stairs and dragged hundreds of 16-foot-long redwood sticks by hand to build railings. They removed 4,150 square feet of old building stuff, enough to cover a basketball court. They used iron cables and pulleys (缆线和滑轮) to build a 70-foot long wooden bridge over the hills. “Nature is probably the best place to learn,” Hiles said. “More than any college or school, you learn so many life lessons out here.” However, the huge Soberanes Fire s wept through the area in 2016, putting a stop to the work. When they began again in 2017, great river storms flooded the area and damaged part of Highway 1. Everybody gathered around this project. They saw the loss. They missed it. They wanted it to come back. They kept combining efforts. It’s been a long journey, but worth the wait. 32. What can we learn about Preifer Fall Trail? A. It is an attraction rebuilt in 2008. B. It met with many natural disasters. C. It features man-made landscape. D. It is an addition to a previous track. 33. How did the people reduce the impact of the trail on the environment? A. By moving the trail off watercourse. B. By using huge redwood sticks. C. By recycling the old building stuff. D. By applying iron cables and pulleys. 34. What can best describe the people’s work? A. Limiting and typical. B. Adventurous but smooth. C. Mysterious and attractive. D. Tough but rewarding. 35. What is the text mainly about? A. The rise and fall of a hiking trail. B. California protection projects. C. The recovery of a lost attraction. D. Journeys into wilderness. 【答案】32. B 33. A 34. D 35. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了Preifer Fall Trail因为自然灾害被毁，为了恢复这一景点，人们协力付出了许多努力。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Unfortunately, the trail, along with stairs, signs, railings, an observation station and wooden bridges, was destroyed in the 2008 Basin Complex Fire.(不幸的是，这条小径连同楼梯、标志、栏杆、观测站和木桥都在2008年的盆地建筑群大火中被毁)”以及第二段“But the landscape always suffers natural disasters. There have been three major wildfires in Big Sur in the past years.(但这里的景观总是遭受自然灾害。过去几年里，大苏尔发生了三起重大野火)”可知，Preifer Fall Trail遭遇了许多自然灾害。故选B。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Parks planners designed a new track, moving the trail out of the river to reduce its impact on the environment.(公园规划者设计了一条新的步道，将步道移出河流，以减少对环境的影响)”可知，人们通过把小路移出水道，来减少步道对环境的影响。故选A。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“People from the California protection group, state parks department and the nonprofit organization put in 66,000 hours of work over the past four years.

For decades, it had been a heaven for book lovers, with its weathered wooden sign and the slow, warm time inside. But now, the bookstore was closing down. The news shocked David, a college student who had spent his childhood reading there. The smell of old paper and the warm light had accompanied his growth. He could not bear the thought of losing the bookstore. As the news spread across the neighborhood, everyone looked worried and upset. The reason for the closure was a woman named Sarah Chen. Representing a large development company, she had made a generous offer to buy the building. She saw the space not for its shelves of stories, but for its potential as a trendy café, an upgrade to earn more money. To her, it was just business. Mr. Hopkins, now old and tired, felt defeated. “Maybe it’s time, David,” he sighed, his hand resting on a dusty copy of his favorite novel. “The world has moved on.” On the day of the final meeting, David arrived early, his backpack filled with items he had collected over the years from the store: a bookmark from his tenth birthday, a receipt(小票) from the first book he had bought with his own money, a photograph of himself and Mr. Hopkins taken during a summer reading program. He walked to the children’s section and drew a small, worn copy of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. The cover was faded, the pages yellowed, but the spine (书脊) still held strong. Sarah arrived precisely at 2:00 p.m. She wasted no time getting down to business, reviewing the contract (合同) with Mr. Hopkins. David watched from the sidelines, his heart pounding in his chest. He couldn’t let this happen — not without trying to make his voice heard. Taking a deep breath, David stepped forward bravely. He took out the bookmark, receipt and photo from his backpack carefully, and told Sarah the story behind each item. He said the bookstore was his childhood shelter and had witnessed the growth of many people in the neighborhood. His voice trembled with emotion, and tears filled his eyes. Sarah put down the contract, listened quietly, and her expression softened gradually as she watched the precious items. A decision was made to combine a bookstore and a café in one project, and the construction began. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible version 1 A decision was made to combine a bookstore and a café in one project, and the construction began. With everyone’s efforts, the old bookstore regained vitality. The original wooden shelves were kept, filled with various books, while a small cozy café was added in the corner. When it opened, neighbors and book lovers gathered here, reading books and drinking coffee. David and Mr. Hopkins smiled happily, and Sarah also felt a sense of accomplishment. It was a perfect combination of old memories and new trends, letting the warmth of books last forever. Possible version 2 A decision was made to combine a bookstore and a café in one project, and the construction began. Months later, the renewed bookstore-café opened with a warm and charming atmosphere. The classic wooden shelves remained, while the comforting smell of old books blended perfectly with the fragrant coffee. Standing beside Mr. Hopkins, David felt a surge of pride and relief, knowing his sincere appeal had rescued this beloved spot. Sarah, too, smiled with satisfaction, finally understanding that this place was far more than a commercial space—it was a spiritual shelter for the entire community. Thanks to David’ s efforts, the peaceful corner in the city was preserved and would continue to warm generations of readers. Possible version 3 A decision was made to combine a bookstore and a café in one project, and the construction began. David volunteered to assist with the decoration faithfully every day. Guided by Mr. Hopkins, the workers preserved the traditional warmth and peaceful atmosphere of the shop. Sarah also kept a close eye on the process, ensuring the old bookstore’s unique charm remained. Several months later, the renewed space opened officially. The comforting smell of coffee mixed perfectly with the fragrance of classic books. Visitors lost themselves in reading and appreciated the peaceful shelter. The old bookstore gained a brand-new life. Thanks to David’s bravery, the precious memories of the whole neighborhood were perfectly preserved. 【解析】 【导语】本文以书店存续为线索展开，讲述了霍普金斯先生的书店因城市发展面临关闭危机，开发商代表莎拉计划将其改造成咖啡馆。大学生大卫因童年与书店的深厚情感，在最终谈判时用收藏的书签、收据和照片等物品打动莎拉，最终促成书店与咖啡馆结合的改造方案。 【详解】1. 段落续写： 由续写开头句“他们决定将书店与咖啡馆整合在一个项目中，随后开工建设。”可知，本段需描写改造过程中的核心细节，改造完成后的模样，以及开业后的场景，还有大卫、霍普金斯先生和莎拉的反应，体现改造后的圆满与温暖。 2.续写线索： 书店与咖啡馆结合的决定确定——施工开始——众人合力改造——书店重新开业——邻里和书迷聚集——大卫与霍普金斯先生开心微笑——莎拉获得成就感——旧回忆与新潮流完美融合 3.词汇激活： 行为类： ①保留：keep/preserve ②聚集：gather/flock ③微笑：smile/grin 情绪类： ①开心的：happily/joyfully ②有成就感：feel a sense of accomplishment/feel fulfilled 【点睛】【高分句型1】 The original wooden shelves were kept, filled with various books, while a small cozy café was added in the corner.（运用了过去分词作状语以及while引导的并列句） 【高分句型2】 It was a perfect combination of old memories and new trends, letting the warmth of books last forever.（运用了现在分词短语作状语。） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式。开始。Fairly cloudless for the time of year. yes, quite different from the . forecast.
