However, some of us have developed bad online habits. Spending too much time on games or short videos is bad for our health and studies. Worse still, harmful information may mislead us, affecting our growth. Therefore, we should make good use of the Internet for learning. It is also important for us to control our online time wisely and keep away from harmful information. Let’s take action and use the Internet properly. Only in this way can we benefit from the Internet. Students’ Union 第二节 Paragraph 1 The cat crossed the yard and softly rested at my daughter’s feet. Jessica’s eyes widened in surprise, and her murmurs of fear died down at once. She slowly reached out her hand to touch the cat’s soft fur, and it purred gently, nuzzling her palm. I quickly took a photo of them together, capturing the way Jessica’s tense shoulders relaxed and a faint smile tugged at her lips. For the first time all day, she didn’t mention the operation—she was too busy talking to her new furry friend. As night fell, the cat rose slowly, rubbed its head against Jessica’s hand one last time, and then slipped through the gap in the fence, as if whispering a gentle goodbye. Paragraph 2 We never saw the cat again after that day, but we kept the photo that we really treasure. Whenever Jessica felt nervous before the surgery, she would look at the picture carefully and think of the warm moment. The lovely cat appeared at her most difficult time and brought her great comfort and courage. It made her relaxed and drove away all her fear and worry. That day, we truly realized that angels don’t always have wings. Sometimes they just come in the form of a soft, purring cat. They are sent to comfort a scared little girl, giving her warmth and strength, and reminding her that she was never truly alone. 听 力 原 文 Text 1 M: Madam, what seems to be the problem?

Text 10 W: Hello, everyone. I'm going to tell you about our trip to the City Museum. (17)The museum isn't far-it'll only take us about 20minutes to get there. There will be several events during the day and you'll have the chance to walk around the museum for at least 50 minutes. At first we'll listen to the museum director Jane Witton for about 30minutes, telling us about what there is to see. (18)Usually in a museum you're not allowed to touch what's on show, but on this visit, we are! You'll all work in groups, and each group will be given pots to pick up and look at, and think about what they were used for. You'll study some ancient rings too, although I'm afraid they'll stay in their glass case. The museum also has a Technology Center for education and research. You'll be able to find out lots of interesting facts. (19)Rather than using computers, though, iPads will be provided. You can work on these to search for information. When you've finished your research, for the final activity you'll do a quiz to see how much you can remember. When we get back to school, I'd like you to design and make something for other students to see. (20)The museum has sent us some of their postcards, which can give you ideas for the posters I want you to draw. 答 案 解 析 阅读A 【导语】这是一篇应用文。本文主要向游客推荐华盛顿特区的四种特色观光项目，分别介绍了老城区电车之旅、非裔美国人历史之旅、喜剧徒步之旅和黄昏之旅的特色、时长和适宜人群，旨在帮助游客全面了解当地游览信息，不错过任何精彩体验。 21．细节理解题。从活动名称Camedy Walks Washingon D. C，即可得知答案。另外文章中提the walking tour lasts for about one hour and thirty minutes, which takes place in less than a mile journey from the starting place. 也可知该项活动适合喜欢徒步的游客，故选C。 22．细节理解题。从文中可如四项活动的排续时间分到是3小时，4小时，1小时30分钟，2小时，所以选择B项。 23．推理判新题。由"Click Here to find the perfect hotel for your stay as well"可知D正确。 阅读B 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。Cesare在学校的支持下，通过自己的努力建造了一个核聚变反应堆。 24．细节理解题。根据第三段第一句可知, Cesare是受到一个视频里的人的启发才决定建造一个核聚变反应堆的。故选B。 25．细节理解题。根据第四段可知。Cesare为了建造反应堆，花费了大量时间进行研究，查找信息和观看视频。即Cesare为建造反应堆做了大量准备工作。故选A。 26．推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句可知，他将来无论去哪里，都可能会继续改变人们对年轻人能取得怎样的成就的看法，因此，人们期望他未来能取得更大的进步。故选C。 27．观点态度题。通读全文可知，作者对Cesare的描述都是正面的。用了 meaningful, strong student, advanced, change people’s ideas等词汇，表达了他赞扬和肯定的语气。故选A。 阅读C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，文章指出格陵兰和南极洲游人增加，这一现象引发了环保人士的担忧，同时介绍了科学家对极地野生动物的研究，强调游客应增强环保责任感。 28．根据The International Union for Conservation of Nature (UCN) reports a steady (稳步的) rise in visitors since the 1990s---a dire tourism problem for environmentalists who warn that humans can destroy fragile (脆弱的) ecosystems, influence animal behaviour and bring non-native species with them. 可知，环保人士担心人类活动破坏极地生态。B选项正确。 29．从Grecian explain that by taking samples（样品）from the environment or animals, we can learn a lot about past conditions. For example, scientists can collect baleen plates (鲸须板) from dead whales to see what the whales ate and where they lived. 可知，提到鲸鱼残骸是为了举例说明料学家收集信息的方式。D选项正确。 30．从Grecian knows how special these places are and how much they are affected. He believes we should act to help protect these important but threatened areas. Polar tourism is growing, but he hopes that with more awareness of its problems, visitors can make better choices. 可知，Grecian 认为游客应更有环保责任感。C选项正确， 31．文章主要围物极地旅游人数增长以及带来的问题和人们的担忧展开。C选项Polar Tourism: Growth and Concerns（极地游：增长与担忧）作为标题最合适。 阅读D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了作者因一次喜马拉雅旅行改变了对纪念品的看法，更看重旅行经历而非实物纪念品，文章随后分析了人们购买纪念品的心理需求，指出旅游纪念品存在的假货、冲击传统手工艺品等问题，并给出选购有意义纪念品的建议。 32．第一段 “Over time, my desire for typical souvenirs has faded; I now value experiences over objects.” 作者明确提到，随着时间的推移，自己对纪念品的渴望减退，现在更看重“经历”（experiences）而非实物。因此，改变他观点的是“对经历的渴望”。选项B正确。 33．第二段核心句 “At the heart of our actions is a desire to feel heard, seen and connected,” 以及 “Souvenirs bring back happy memories, serving as a simple way to say, “I was there.”该段主要解释了人们为什么购买纪念品（为了记住快乐，为了证明“我来过这里”），并引用教授的话指出这背后是渴望被听到、被看到、建立连接的心理需求。因此，本段主要讲的是“对纪念品的心理需求”。选项B正确。 34．第三段最后一句 “it often minimizes the profit of the traditional handicrafts, creating a negative cycle.” 问题问的是这个恶性循环导致的结果。原文明确指出，购买假货虽然看似支持了当地卖家，但实际上减少了“传统手工艺品”（traditional handicrafts）的利润，从而形成了一个恶性循环。因此，结果是传统手工艺品失去了市场。选项C正确。 35．最后两段建议 “Choosing unique designs over mass-produced goods”，“Intentions also matter, as souvenirs should be chosen for personal meaning rather than habit.” 以及最后一句 “pause and reflect”。作者建议选择独特的设计而非批量生产的商品，强调“意图”（intentions）比“习惯”更重要，并建议在机场匆忙购买时停下来反思。这都是在建议选择“有意图”（intention）而非“图方便”（convenience）。选项C正确。 七选五 【导语】本文主要讲志愿服务的定义、形式，以及它对个人（尤其是心理健康和幸福感）的积极影响。 36．根据If somebody volunteers, they do something for the benefit of another person or the world around us, such as our local community, without being paid. 如果有人做志愿活动，他们就是在无偿地为他人或我们周围的世界（比如当地社区）谋福利。这段话在解释什么是“volunteering”，是对概念的界定，因此前面应该是一个引出定义的问句“What is volunteering?”，所以选A。 37．根据It can be organized such as work for a charity or helping your neighbour with their food shopping. Many people volunteer to help environment by picking up litter or planting trees. 志愿活动可以是组织性的，比如为慈善机构工作，或者帮邻居买食品杂货。很多人通过捡垃圾或植树来志愿帮助环境。这两句举例说明了志愿活动可以有不同的形式，因此前面应有一句总括性的句子“Volunteering comes in all shapes and sizes. ”，即C项。 38．根据For example, if you love nature, why not volunteer for a wildlife charity?例如，如果你热爱自然，为什么不志愿去一家野生动物保护慈善机构呢？前文讲志愿活动能提升幸福感，这一段进一步说明“如果志愿活动与兴趣结合，效果更明显”，F项“This is especially true if you match volunteering to your interests. ”正合适，后文举例正好印证这一点。 39．根据It has been shown to reduce feelings of anxiety (焦虑) because many people find that they are distracted (分心) from their worries by concentrating on the needs of others.…“which is good news for our mental health”…研究显示，志愿活动能减少焦虑感，因为很多人发现把注意力放在他人的需求上，可以让自己从烦恼中分心。……这对我们的心理健康是好消息。小标题问“对健康的影响”，整个段落围绕志愿工作对于心理健康展开，E在这里是段落主旨句，后面是具体展开减少焦虑和社交联结，最终结果是对我们的心理健康有利。 40．前面介绍了研究表明志愿工作对心理健康的影响，接着说明研究也表明它对身体健康有影响。起着对小标题“对健康的影响”的一个完整回答——对身心健康都有利。“Also”这个词也告知我们应该选G。 完形填空 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了James Owen在70岁时决定通过锻炼改善健康，最终成功并写书分享经验的故事。 41. 考查名词词义辨析。句意：“我当时看上去就像个老头。”Owen说，他在华尔街事业有成。A. hospital医院；B. career事业；C. hobby爱好；D. project项目。根据后文“on Wall Street”可知，Owen在华尔街建立了成功的事业。故选B。 42. 考查名词词义辨析。句意：他超重约25磅，背部、膝盖和肩膀都有慢性问题。A. success成功；B. progress进步；C. trouble问题；D. luck运气。根据后文“with his back, knees, and shoulders”和“aches and pains”可知，此处指身体部位的“慢性不适”，chronic trouble表示 “慢性问题”。故选C。 43. 考查动词短语辨析。句意：但Owen并没有向年龄屈服，而是决定设定一个雄心勃勃的五年目标。A. giving up放弃；B. giving in屈服；C. giving away赠送；D. giving out分发。根据后文“to age”和“He wanted to be pain-free and decided the way to get there was through exercise”可知，Owen没有“向年龄妥协”，give in to age表示“向年龄屈服”。故选B。 44. 考查名词词义辨析。句意同上。A. goal目标；B. rule规则；C. record记录；D. game游戏。根据后文“He wanted to be pain-free”可知，Owen设定了一个雄心勃勃的五年目标，即想要没有痛苦。故选A。 45. 考查动词词义辨析。句意：Owen从散步开始他的锻炼计划，尽管他一开始走五分钟就气喘吁吁。A. began开始；B. ended结束；C. changed改变；D. canceled取消。根据后文“his exercise plan by walking”和“he started huffing and puffing after five minutes”可知，Owen从散步开始他的锻炼计划。故选A。 46. 考查动词词义辨析。句意：但这并没有让他气馁。A. interest使感兴趣；B. surprise使惊讶；C. stop停止；D. attract吸引。根据后文“He kept at the walks every day”可知，尽管有困难，Owen并没有停止下来，而是坚持每天散步。故选C。 47. 考查动词词义辨析。句意：当他掌握了那些基础之后，就开始举重训练，还聘请了一位私人教练来指导自己，并制定了一份他能独自执行的训练计划。A. design设计；B. imagine想象；C. abandon抛弃；D. prevent阻止。根据后文“a routine he could follow on his own”可知，私人教练为他设计了一套日常训练计划。故选A。 48. 考查动词词义辨析。句意：最后一步是找到他喜欢的其他活动，结果发现是骑自行车和游泳。A. hated讨厌；B. enjoyed喜欢；C. feared害怕；D. missed错过。根据后文“which turned out to be cycling and swimming”可知，Owen找到了自己喜欢的其他活动，即骑自行车和游泳。故选B。 49. 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：是的，他没有了疼痛。A. full满的；B. tired疲惫的；C. free自由的，无……的；D. short短的。根据前文“He wanted to be pain-free”和后文““Aging well is only about 20 to 25 percent genes, and the rest is lifestyle,” he says. ”可知，Owen没有了疼痛，be free of aches and pains为固定搭配，意为“摆脱疼痛”。故选C。 50. 考查名词词义辨析。句意：Owen利用他的经历写了一本书，名为《动起来! 50岁后健身的新方法》。A. knowledge知识；B. experience经历；C. courage勇气；D. patience耐心。根据前文的叙述和后文“to write a book”可知，Owen从70岁开始锻炼、摆脱疼痛的过程是他的“经历”，他基于这一经历写了一本书。故选B。 51. 考查动词词义辨析。句意：在书中，他详细说明了老年人如何安全地从沙发上站起来，并在生活中增加更多的运动。A. imagines想象；B. guesses猜测；C. details详细说明；D. remembers记得。根据后文“how older adults can safely get off the couch and add more movement to their lives”可知，书的内容是“老年人如何安全运动”，需“详细介绍”，details符合“书籍传递具体方法”的语境。故选C。 52. 考查名词词义辨析。句意：关键是缓慢而稳定的进步。A. key关键；B. problem问题；C. result结果；D. reason原因。前文“Think of it as movement, not exercise, just get started”是建议，此处强调“缓慢稳定进步”是成功的“关键”，key符合“核心要素”的语境。故选A。 53. 考查动词词义辨析。句意：他现在82岁，仍然坚持日常锻炼的惯例。A. schedule计划；B. task 任务；C. duty 责任；D. routine惯例。根据后面句子意思：他每天锻炼一小时，一周六天，且与前文47空所在句子呼应，可知选routine，故选D。 54. 考查动词词义辨析。句意同上。A. sleeps睡觉；B. works工作；C. studies学习；D. exercises锻炼。根据后文“an hour a day, six days a week”以及上文提到他通过锻炼改善健康，可知他每周锻炼六天，每天一小时。故选D。 55. 考查名词词义辨析。句意：“这是我人生中做过的最好的决定，”他说。A. promise承诺；B. wish 希望；C. suggestion 建议；D. decision 决定。根据上文“It is the best”以及他通过锻炼改善了健康，可知他认为这是自己人生中做过的最好的决定。故选D。 语法填空 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲的是作者在中国的经历和感受。 56. 考查名词。句意：2016年8月28日，当我抵达北京首都国际机场时，我对中国的第一印象是惊喜交集。空格处用名词作宾语，amaze的名词是amazement，意为“惊讶”，是不可数名词，故填amazement。 57. 考查短语。句意：刚开始的几个月里，因为语言问题，我遇到了各种各样的挑战，......。a variety of 表示“各种各样的”，故填a。 58. 考查名词单复数。句意：......，但在友好的当地人的帮助下，我能够很快地四处旅行。此处local作为名词使用，表示当地人，故填locals。 59. 考查介词。句意：这些年在中国的经历给我留下了深刻的印象。leave a deep impression on/upon是固定短语，意为“给……留下深刻的印象”，因此空格处用介词on/upon。故填on/upon。 60. 考查比较级。句意：和我去过的其他国家相比，中国更加重视教育。根据句子意思此处的great要用其形容词的比较级来修饰后面importance，故填greater。 61. 考查副词。句意：他们认为他们的学习是真的重要，学校有一个有意义的课程。空格处用副词truly修饰形容词important，故填truly。 62. 考查时态，被动语态和主谓一致。句意：从小学到大学，每个家庭都非常重视教育。attention和focus之间是逻辑动宾关系，且句子描述客观事实，时态用一般现在时，因此空格处用一般现在时的被动语态，主语attention是不可数名词，因此空格处是is focused。故填is focused。 63. 考查不定式。句意：到目前为止，中国的教育体系旨在确保学生具备在生活中取得成功所需的知识和技能。be designed to do意为“旨在做某事”，因此空格处用不定式to make。故填to make。 64. 考查动名词。句意：总之，在中国生活是一次真正独特而非凡的经历。空格处用动名词作主语，故填living。 65. 考查定语从句。句意：我希望我的经历能帮助人们更多地了解这个有吸引力的国家，激励其他人去探索美好的事物。空格处引导的是非限制性定语从句，先行词my experiences是物，因此空格处用关系代词which引导定语从句，故填which。 高一英语第一次月考题参考答案 第8页 （共8页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025—2026学年度第二学期高一第一次月考试题 英 语 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。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.

Cesare’s mother is an architect and his father is an electronic engineer. As a child, Cesare became interested in electronics. He loved to experiment. He learned to program computers and equipment like the Arduino and Raspberry Pl. He also worked with a 3D printer. After seeing a video about someone building a fusion reactor (核聚变反应堆), Cesare decided he would do something meaningful, too. The school wasn’t so excited about the idea. But Cesare worked to persuade his teachers. Finally, after a complete safety review, and with an extra advisor offering to help out, the school agreed. Cesare was a strong student, but his regular classes weren’t teaching him how to build a fusion reactor. To learn this, he spent countless hours doing research, looking up information on the Internet, and watching videos. He would read, watch 10 or 15 videos, and then try to solve the problem. He also visited a website where he got advice from scientists with more experience. Step by step, working long hours with his physics teacher and his advisor, Cesare built the reactor. Last June, at the very end of the school year, the reactor was finished. Over a year has passed since then, Cesare has continued to improve the reactor. He has built complicated equipment to control the pressure and to better see and understand what’s going on inside the reactor. He’s one of the youngest students to have built such an advanced fusion reactor. But for Cesare, it wasn’t just about the reactor. It was also about learning by doing, and about making connections with other people doing similar things. College is the next stop for Cesare perhaps in England, perhaps in Italy. No matter where he goes, he’ll probably continue to change people’s ideas about how much young people can achieve. 24. What made Cesure decided to build a fusion reactor? A. His interest in videos. B. The inspiration from someone. C. His parents’ influence. D. The support from his school. 25. What do we say about Cesare from paragraph 4? A. He struggled to prepare for the reactor. B. He depended heavily on useful videos. C. He worked with experienced scientists D. He had difficulty in getting information. 26. What is Cesare expected to do in the future? A. Build another reactor. B. Learn new things through the Internet. C. Make greater progress. D. Go to a famous college. 27. What is the author’s attitude towards Cesare’s story? A. Admiring. B. Negative. C. Objective. D. Doubtful. C Greenland is the place on land that is closest to the North Pole in the world. Attracted by the beautiful scenery, the number of tourists visiting the country increased by 46% between 2018 and 2023. Meanwhile, on the opposite side of the planet, Antarctica is seeing a similar tourism increase. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (UCN) reports a steady rise in visitors since the 1990s—a dire tourism problem for environmentalists who warn that humans can destroy fragile (脆弱的) ecosystems, influence animal behaviour and bring non-native species with them. The attraction of the polar regions is obvious: the strength of the blue sky on a freezing, sunny day; the excitement of walking on fresh snow; and the unique wildlife that calls these places home. However, as tourism to the poles increases, organizations like the Arctic Council and Visit Greenland stress the need to balance economic benefits with environmental responsibility. James Grecian, an oceanic ecologist, has spent years studying polar wildlife. Last year, he was in Antarctica studying snow petrels (雪鹱)—or more specifically, their vomit (呕吐物). Snow petrels have stomach oil that turns into solid pieces. When scientists study these pieces, they can learn how the petrels’ diet has changed over the years and what that means for the local ecosystem. Grecian explains that by taking samples (样品) from the environment or animals, we can learn a lot about past conditions. For example, scientists can collect baleen plates (鲸须板) from dead whales to see what the whales ate and where they lived. Grecian knows how special these places are and how much they are affected. He believes we should act to help protect these important but threatened areas. Polar tourism is growing, but he hopes that with more awareness of its problems, visitors can make better choices. 28. What does the underlined word “dire” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Amazing. B. Alarming. C. Confusing. D. Misleading. 29. Why does the author mention baleen plates in paragraph 3? A. To explain whale protection measures. B. To share an exploring experience. C. To describe the appearance of whales. D. To show how scientists gather information. 30. Which will Grecian probably agree with? A. Polar tourism should be encouraged. B. Scientists should be more aware of the problems. C. Visitors should be more environmentally responsible. D. Climate change contributes to the negative changes. 31. What is the most suitable title for the text? A. Polar Regions: Beauty and the Wild. B. Polar Tour: Popularity and Development. C. Polar Tourism: Growth and Concerns. D. Polar Wildlife: Protection and Challenges. D On a recent trip through the Himalayas, my bruises (淤伤) became the truest souvenirs. More personal than anything bought, they carry a unique memory. Over time, my desire for special souvenirs has faded; I now value experiences over objects. But maybe that's just me. Two out of three Americans bring back a souvenir from their travels, with US sales topping $21billion in 2022. Humans have long collected objects to remember experiences. With the rise of industrialization and tourism, souvenirs became more common. Souvenirs bring back happy memories, serving as a simple way to say, “I was there.” “At the heart of our actions is a desire to feel heard, seen and connected,” explains Madarkal, a professor in India. Travelers today are more aware of their effect on local community, but the problems caused by travel souvenirs are often ignored. In a 2022 Australian report, up to 75% of souvenirs marketed as “local” are made overseas. Real goods are expensive due to time-consuming labour involved, so some shops sell cheap fakes (假货) with most customers giving little regard to their origins. While buying fakes may seem to support local sellers, it often minimizes (最小化) the profit of the traditional handicrafts (手工艺品), creating a negative cycle. So, how can you buy meaningful souvenirs? “Be curious... it’s not just about buying or choosing carefully, it’s about refusing and explaining why,” said Madarkal. Asking where an item comes from and how it is made is a good first step. Choosing unique designs over mass-produced goods at fair-trade market helps support local communities. Intentions also matter, as souvenirs should be chosen for personal meaning rather than habit. And souvenirs don’t always have to be objects — journals or skills gained can become lasting reminders. Eventually, there’s no universal rule for “meaningful” souvenir. But next time you’re grabbing a quick airport souvenir, pause and reflect. 32. What changed the author’s view on souvenirs? A. A search for adventures. B. A desire for experiences. C. Fear of physical injuries. D. Changes in life stages. 33. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The rise of tourism. B. The mental need for souvenirs. C. The importance of modern tourism. D. The increasing popularity of souvenirs. 34. What is the result of the negative cycle in paragraph 3? A. Tourism becomes more profitable. B. Local sellers gain long-term benefits. C. Traditional handicrafts lose the market. D. Souvenir design becomes unique. 35. What does the author suggest about buying meaningful souvenirs? A. Picking timeless common designs. B. Following your own shopping habits. C. Choosing intention instead of convenience. D. Considering convenience rather than uniqueness. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Volunteering is a great way to help others, whether it's a friend who is struggling with their homework or an elderly person who feels lonely. Helping others can actually help you, too. 36 If somebody volunteers, they do something for the benefit of another person or the world around us, such as our local community, without being paid. 37 It can be organized such as work for a charity or helping your neighbour with their food shopping. Many people volunteer to help environment by picking up litter or planting trees. How does helping others help you? Research has shown that volunteering improves our well-being.

I have always pictured an angel as a child with long hair, fair skin and eyes the colour of the Caribbean Sea. That was until I actually met one. Not the childlike form I’d imagined, but feline (猫科的). Not fair skin, but soft, silky, brown fur with soulful eyes. Yes, my angel was a Siamese cat (暹罗猫)! My daughter Jessica was nine years old at the time. She had fallen off the roof. At our one-week checkup with the surgeon (外科医生), X-rays were taken, an exam was made, and we received disappointing news. Although things looked okay on the outside, the bones weren’t in perfect position. The surgeon recommended a return visit to the operating room the next week to reset the bones. My daughter was scared, especially when she learned that her dad and I weren’t allowed to be with her during the procedure (过程). The ride home was very quiet. You could see the worry in her watery eyes and in her body language. There was no way to comfort her. She kept murmuring (喃喃自语) that she hated being alone and that she wished a warm, soft cat could curl up with her to chase away her fear. After encouraging her to have some lunch, I suggested she go outside to get some fresh air. At her age, most kids were interested in toys, but she had always been crazy about cats— she’d watched lots of cat videos and dreamed of having a little cat of her own. Being an only child, she often felt lonely, and a cat was the one friend she wanted most. I stood there, my mind racing to find a way to cheer her up. I was trying to come up with something to take her mind off her worries and fear when all of a sudden something came into sight. A beautiful Siamese cat was walking on the top of the fence in our yard. Walking like an Olympic gymnast, it was showing off its beautiful lines and nice curves. Where did this graceful cat come from? We’d lived in this neighborhood for fifteen years and had never seen this cat before. I couldn’t believe it. The very cat that might just calm my daughter had just appeared from nowhere! 注意： 1.  所需写的短文词数应为150左右； 2.  续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已经为你写好。 Paragraph 1 The cat crossed the yard and softly rested at my daughter’s feet. Paragraph 2 We never saw the cat again after that day, but we kept the photo that we really treasure. ( 高一英语 第 11 页 （共12页） ) 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
