I remember attending a cultural fair last year. As I walked through the fair, I was enveloped by the smell of spices from food stalls. One particular stand caught my attention, where a woman was preparing paella, a traditional Spanish dish. As she cooked, she shared with me how this recipe had been passed down through generations, and that her grandmother would make it for family celebrations. Watching her prepare the paella, I realized how food can tell the story of a culture. At the same fair, I found myself drawn to a booth displaying colorful paintings. One of the artists, a local woman named Elena, had created a series of landscapes describing the rolling hills of our region. As we spoke, Elena recalled, as a young girl, how she would go on weekend hikes with her family, so she would make a quick drawing of what she saw. It made me realize how art can tell the story of a place, of the artist’s soul. At another booth, I met Maya, a sculptor who used recycled materials to create strikingly beautiful pieces. One of her sculptures was a bird made from old newspapers and bottle caps. She explained how the piece represented her belief in the importance of sustainability, and how even discarded (被丢弃的) items could be transformed into something meaningful. As the day wore on, the atmosphere at the fair grew more vibrant. The music picked up, and I found myself swept into a lively dance circle with a group of strangers. I remember looking around at the laughter, feeling completely at ease, as if I had known these people for years. At that moment, I realized that cultural fairs do more than showcase art. They bring people together in unexpected and beautiful ways, transcending language, culture, and background. 4. What role can food serve as described in the first paragraph? A. A symbol of wealth and social status. B. A tool for trade and cultural expansion. C. A link between religion and daily practice. D. A carrier of cultural memory and tradition. 5. Where did Elena draw inspiration for her art? A. Her childhood experiences. B. Stories told by her family. C. Famous museums she visited. D. Historical events in her region. 6. What does Maya’s story tell us? A. Art can be a decorative tool. B. Art can promote positive change. C. Art must preserve cultural traditions. D. Art must reflect the artist’s experiences. 7. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To display various art forms. B. To recommend different foods. C. To demonstrate traditional customs. D. To show cultural fairs connecting people. C The World Economic Forum’s Future of Jobs Report 2025 found that as many as 41% of employers were planning on downsizing their workforce due to AI. While that statistic may be concerning, it doesn’t necessarily mean that there’s an approaching employment crisis, according to Till Leopold, the lead author of the report. Rather, Leopold thinks that it’s an issue of skill upgrading. The report found that 77% of employers were looking at teaching their current workforce to better work alongside AI, while 47% were looking at transitioning employees from declining roles into other roles in the organization. “The key point is not that we might not have enough jobs,” Leopold says. “The issue is that jobs may look much different.” The jobs most likely to be affected are largely white-collar jobs like clerical (文书的) work that involves using various processes, such as typing and voice recording, for inputting data into computers, which is in line with what has been found in previous editions of the report. New additions include accounting and graphic design jobs, as generative AI models have improved capabilities for both. Other recent reports support the World Economic Forum’s findings. A survey of chief financial officers conducted by Duke University found 37% of respondents had used AI to complete tasks previously done by employees. 54% were planning on doing so over the next year, including 76% of large firms. “However, in the short run, this will be more about plugging some holes and possibly not hiring someone they would have planned to hire — but not dismissing someone,” said John Graham, the academic director of the survey. A new study paints a more sobering picture. It said banks could cut up to 200,000 jobs in the next five years due to AI. But despite the findings of the study, author Tomasz Noetzel agreed with Leopold and Graham. “Jobs involving routine, repetitive tasks are at risk, but AI won’t remove them fully. Rather, it’ll lead to workplace transformation,” he said. 8. What does Leopold think is the direction of change in the job market? A. Many jobs are being degraded. B. The nature of many jobs will change. C. People will be out of work in the future. D. Companies will cut investment in employee training. 9. What will companies do according to Graham’s view? A. They will undergo a massive wave of firings. B. They will hire people with advanced AI skills. C. They may rely on AI instead of adding new staff. D. They may gradually change their business model. 10. What does “sobering” underlined in the last paragraph mean? A. Encouraging. B. Alarming. C. Confusing. D. Relaxing. 11. What is this text mainly about? A. How AI is reshaping the modern job market. B. Why companies are struggling to fire employees. C. How technology is changing ordinary people’s lives. D. Why more workers are entering the technology field. D A new study has found that hedgehogs (刺猬) have incredibly sensitive hearing. The animals can hear high-pitched sounds that humans, cats and dogs can’t detect, according to scientists. Experts now hope that special noise-making devices could be built to help keep hedgehogs away from roads. Hedgehog numbers are in decline and cars are a big factor. A 2022 report revealed that hedgehog numbers in the British countryside had dropped by up to 75% in just over 20 years. It is thought that up to a third of hedgehogs are killed by cars when crossing roads. Sophie Lund Rasmussen, from the University of Oxford, England, had the idea to build a sound device that could scare hedgehogs away from roads. However, she needed to know how good their hearing was first. Researchers worked with 20 hedgehogs from Danish wildlife rescue centres, studying how their brains responded to short bursts of sound. They found there was brain activity when hedgehogs heard frequencies between four and 85 kilohertz (kHz). Frequency measures how much a sound wave vibrates in one second. Anything over 20 kHz, which is the limit that humans can hear, is in the “ultrasonic” range. Dogs can hear up to 45kHz and cats up to 65kHz. In other words, hedgehogs can hear super high-pitched noises that humans, dogs and cats can’t pick up. Rasmussen said more research is needed to work out exactly which sounds put off hedgehogs, but once they know they could design a device that gives off an ultrasound noise. This could be attached to cars and lawnmowers to scare hedgehogs away from danger, but not be annoying to humans or most pets. The test results also raise the possibility that hedgehogs are talking to each other in a high-pitched chatter that is hidden from humans. “Imagine that they’re actually chattering all the time and we just couldn’t hear it,” said Rasmussen. 12. What is special about hedgehogs’ hearing? A. It is sensitive to the noise. B. It is worse than other animals’. C. It detects high-frequency sounds. D. It helps them to get delicious food. 13. Why is a sound device needed according to the text? A. To reduce hedgehogs’ deaths. B. To distract hedgehogs’ attention. C. To improve hedgehogs’ hearing. D. To increase hedgehogs’ communication. 14. What can be inferred from the hearing comparison? A. Cats are the same as dogs. B. Humans have the best hearing. C. Hedgehogs have the widest hearing. D. Hedgehogs are limited to special sounds. 15. Where could the ultrasound device be used? A. To decrease traffic jams. B. To scare away other animals. C. To promote humans’ hearing. D. To prevent hedgehogs from danger. 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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The power of pets Pets are more than just companions; they are lifelines, offering profound emotional and psychological benefits that positively impact our well-being.

On one particular day, I was teaching in a very difficult class. Some of the schoolboys didn’t finish their homework on time and that really annoyed me. I was managing behaviour all morning and by lunchtime I knew I needed coffee to even consider surviving the afternoon. So on my lunchtime, I drove to a nearby plaza to get a cup of coffee. There I had a wonderful time and forgot the unpleasant experience in the morning. Upon returning to the car, I realized I had locked my keys and my phone inside! I had about 15 minutes to get back to the school which was a good 4-or-5-minute drive away. I considered rushing back, but it was winter, and I thought a dirty fall on ice would only make the situation much worse. So I ran into a Mcdonald’s which was in the same plaza and asked the man at the counter to call me a cab. The man happened to be the manager of the restaurant. I briefly explained my situation to him, and I could tell by the look, that he empathized. He hurried to the back to use the phone while I paced in the restaurant. I had less than 10 minutes to get back to my school at this point. The manager returned, only to tell me that the cab company had put him on hold and then the line got disconnected, and that he was now on hold again, but had not yet been able to request the cab yet. My expression, I am sure, began to resemble some combination of hopelessness and fear. 注意:续写词数应为150左右。 Without a thought, the manager grabbed his coat and offered to drive me to the school. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The manager’s calm behaviour and kind nature made me think ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高一年级4月份阶段性练习 英语 本试卷共8页。全卷满分150分。考试用时120分钟。 ★祝考试顺利★ 注意事项： 1．答题前，先将自己的姓名、准考证号、考场号、座位号填写在试卷和答题卡上，并将准考证号条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2．选择题的作答：每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 3．非选择题的作答：用黑色签字笔直接答在答题卡上对应的答题区域内。写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 4．考试结束后，请将答题卡上交。 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.

I remember attending a cultural fair last year. As I walked through the fair, I was enveloped by the smell of spices from food stalls. One particular stand caught my attention, where a woman was preparing paella, a traditional Spanish dish. As she cooked, she shared with me how this recipe had been passed down through generations, and that her grandmother would make it for family celebrations. Watching her prepare the paella, I realized how food can tell the story of a culture. At the same fair, I found myself drawn to a booth displaying colorful paintings. One of the artists, a local woman named Elena, had created a series of landscapes describing the rolling hills of our region. As we spoke, Elena recalled, as a young girl, how she would go on weekend hikes with her family, so she would make a quick drawing of what she saw. It made me realize how art can tell the story of a place, of the artist’s soul. At another booth, I met Maya, a sculptor who used recycled materials to create strikingly beautiful pieces. One of her sculptures was a bird made from old newspapers and bottle caps. She explained how the piece represented her belief in the importance of sustainability, and how even discarded (被丢弃的) items could be transformed into something meaningful. As the day wore on, the atmosphere at the fair grew more vibrant. The music picked up, and I found myself swept into a lively dance circle with a group of strangers. I remember looking around at the laughter, feeling completely at ease, as if I had known these people for years. At that moment, I realized that cultural fairs do more than showcase art. They bring people together in unexpected and beautiful ways, transcending language, culture, and background. 4. What role can food serve as described in the first paragraph? A. A symbol of wealth and social status. B. A tool for trade and cultural expansion. C. A link between religion and daily practice. D. A carrier of cultural memory and tradition. 5. Where did Elena draw inspiration for her art? A. Her childhood experiences. B. Stories told by her family. C. Famous museums she visited. D. Historical events in her region. 6. What does Maya’s story tell us? A. Art can be a decorative tool. B. Art can promote positive change. C. Art must preserve cultural traditions. D. Art must reflect the artist’s experiences. 7. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To display various art forms. B. To recommend different foods. C. To demonstrate traditional customs. D. To show cultural fairs connecting people. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了文化集市上食物、艺术和音乐等元素如何成为文化记忆和传统的载体，如何激发艺术家的灵感，以及如何促进社会变革和人际连接。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“As she cooked, she shared with me how this recipe had been passed down through generations, and that her grandmother would make it for family celebrations. Watching her prepare the paella, I realized how food can tell the story of a culture. (她一边做饭，一边和我分享这个食谱是如何代代相传的，还有她的祖母会在家庭庆祝活动中做这道菜。看着她准备海鲜饭，我意识到食物可以讲述一个文化的故事。)”可知，食物是文化记忆和传统的载体。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“One of the artists, a local woman named Elena, had created a series of landscapes describing the rolling hills of our region. As we spoke, Elena recalled, as a young girl, how she would go on weekend hikes with her family, so she would make a quick drawing of what she saw. (其中一位艺术家是当地一位名叫埃琳娜的女性，她创作了一系列描绘我们地区起伏山丘的风景画。我们交谈时，埃琳娜回忆起，她还是个小女孩的时候，会和家人一起在周末徒步旅行，所以她会快速画出她所看到的东西。)”可知，埃琳娜的艺术灵感来自她童年的经历。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“One of her sculptures was a bird made from old newspapers and bottle caps. She explained how the piece represented her belief in the importance of sustainability, and how even discarded (被丢弃的) items could be transformed into something meaningful. (她的一个雕塑是一只由旧报纸和瓶盖制成的鸟。她解释了这件作品如何代表了她对可持续性重要性的信念，以及即使是废弃的物品也可以转化为有意义的东西。)”可知，玛雅的故事告诉我们艺术可以促进积极的改变。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“At that moment, I realized that cultural fairs do more than showcase art. They bring people together in unexpected and beautiful ways, transcending language, culture, and background. (在那一刻，我意识到文化集市不仅仅是展示艺术。它们以意想不到的、美好的方式将人们聚集在一起，超越了语言、文化和背景。)”可知，文章的主要目的是展示文化集市连接人们。 C The World Economic Forum’s Future of Jobs Report 2025 found that as many as 41% of employers were planning on downsizing their workforce due to AI. While that statistic may be concerning, it doesn’t necessarily mean that there’s an approaching employment crisis, according to Till Leopold, the lead author of the report. Rather, Leopold thinks that it’s an issue of skill upgrading. The report found that 77% of employers were looking at teaching their current workforce to better work alongside AI, while 47% were looking at transitioning employees from declining roles into other roles in the organization. “The key point is not that we might not have enough jobs,” Leopold says. “The issue is that jobs may look much different.” The jobs most likely to be affected are largely white-collar jobs like clerical (文书的) work that involves using various processes, such as typing and voice recording, for inputting data into computers, which is in line with what has been found in previous editions of the report. New additions include accounting and graphic design jobs, as generative AI models have improved capabilities for both. Other recent reports support the World Economic Forum’s findings. A survey of chief financial officers conducted by Duke University found 37% of respondents had used AI to complete tasks previously done by employees. 54% were planning on doing so over the next year, including 76% of large firms. “However, in the short run, this will be more about plugging some holes and possibly not hiring someone they would have planned to hire — but not dismissing someone,” said John Graham, the academic director of the survey. A new study paints a more sobering picture. It said banks could cut up to 200,000 jobs in the next five years due to AI. But despite the findings of the study, author Tomasz Noetzel agreed with Leopold and Graham. “Jobs involving routine, repetitive tasks are at risk, but AI won’t remove them fully. Rather, it’ll lead to workplace transformation,” he said. 8. What does Leopold think is the direction of change in the job market? A. Many jobs are being degraded. B. The nature of many jobs will change. C. People will be out of work in the future. D. Companies will cut investment in employee training. 9. What will companies do according to Graham’s view? A. They will undergo a massive wave of firings. B. They will hire people with advanced AI skills. C. They may rely on AI instead of adding new staff. D. They may gradually change their business model. 10. What does “sobering” underlined in the last paragraph mean? A. Encouraging. B. Alarming. C. Confusing. D. Relaxing. 11. What is this text mainly about? A. How AI is reshaping the modern job market. B. Why companies are struggling to fire employees. C. How technology is changing ordinary people’s lives. D. Why more workers are entering the technology field. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了多项研究关于人工智能对就业市场的影响，表明AI不会引发大规模失业危机，而是会重塑工作形态、推动职场转型与技能升级。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The issue is that jobs may look much different.(问题在于工作可能会变得大不相同)”可知，Leopold认为就业市场的变化方向是许多工作的性质将会改变。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“However, in the short run, this will be more about plugging some holes and possibly not hiring someone they would have planned to hire — but not dismissing someone(然而，从短期来看，这更多地是为了填补一些空缺，可能不会招聘原本计划招聘的人员，但不会解雇任何人)” 可知，企业可能会依靠AI来完成任务，而不是增加新员工。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据末段画线词sobering后的句子“It said banks could cut up to 200,000 jobs in the next five years due to AI.(研究显示，由于人工智能的发展，银行在未来五年内可能会裁员多达20万人)”可知，这一结果是令人警醒的，sobering应含有“令人警醒的”之意，与选项中的alarming含义一致。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。首段第二句“While that statistic may be concerning, it doesn’t necessarily mean that there’s an approaching employment crisis.(尽管这一数据令人担忧，但这并不意味着即将出现就业危机)”以及在最后一段““Jobs involving routine, repetitive tasks are at risk, but AI won’t remove them fully. Rather, it’ll lead to workplace transformation,” he said.(他表示： “从事程序化、重复性工作的岗位面临风险，但人工智能不会将这类工作完全取代。相反，它将会推动职场模式的变革。”)”可知，全文介绍了AI对就业市场的影响，说明了AI不会造成大规模失业，而是重塑现代就业市。 D A new study has found that hedgehogs (刺猬) have incredibly sensitive hearing. The animals can hear high-pitched sounds that humans, cats and dogs can’t detect, according to scientists. Experts now hope that special noise-making devices could be built to help keep hedgehogs away from roads. Hedgehog numbers are in decline and cars are a big factor. A 2022 report revealed that hedgehog numbers in the British countryside had dropped by up to 75% in just over 20 years. It is thought that up to a third of hedgehogs are killed by cars when crossing roads. Sophie Lund Rasmussen, from the University of Oxford, England, had the idea to build a sound device that could scare hedgehogs away from roads. However, she needed to know how good their hearing was first. Researchers worked with 20 hedgehogs from Danish wildlife rescue centres, studying how their brains responded to short bursts of sound. They found there was brain activity when hedgehogs heard frequencies between four and 85 kilohertz (kHz). Frequency measures how much a sound wave vibrates in one second. Anything over 20 kHz, which is the limit that humans can hear, is in the “ultrasonic” range. Dogs can hear up to 45kHz and cats up to 65kHz. In other words, hedgehogs can hear super high-pitched noises that humans, dogs and cats can’t pick up. Rasmussen said more research is needed to work out exactly which sounds put off hedgehogs, but once they know they could design a device that gives off an ultrasound noise. This could be attached to cars and lawnmowers to scare hedgehogs away from danger, but not be annoying to humans or most pets. The test results also raise the possibility that hedgehogs are talking to each other in a high-pitched chatter that is hidden from humans. “Imagine that they’re actually chattering all the time and we just couldn’t hear it,” said Rasmussen. 12. What is special about hedgehogs’ hearing? A. It is sensitive to the noise. B. It is worse than other animals’. C. It detects high-frequency sounds. D. It helps them to get delicious food. 13. Why is a sound device needed according to the text? A. To reduce hedgehogs’ deaths. B. To distract hedgehogs’ attention. C. To improve hedgehogs’ hearing. D. To increase hedgehogs’ communication. 14. What can be inferred from the hearing comparison? A. Cats are the same as dogs. B. Humans have the best hearing. C. Hedgehogs have the widest hearing. D. Hedgehogs are limited to special sounds. 15. Where could the ultrasound device be used? A. To decrease traffic jams. B. To scare away other animals. C. To promote humans’ hearing. D. To prevent hedgehogs from danger. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍一项新研究发现刺猬听力极其敏感，能听到人类、猫和狗无法察觉的高频声音，专家希望据此研发特殊发声设备，减少刺猬因过马路被车撞死的情况，同时探讨了该研究的其他潜在意义。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“A new study has found that hedgehogs (刺猬) have incredibly sensitive hearing. The animals can hear high-pitched sounds that humans, cats and dogs can’t detect, according to scientists.(一项新研究发现，刺猬的听力极其敏感。科学家称，这些动物能听到人类、猫和狗无法察觉的高音调声音)”可知，刺猬听力的特别之处在于它能探测到高频声音。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Hedgehog numbers are in decline and cars are a big factor. It is thought that up to a third of hedgehogs are killed by cars when crossing roads. Sophie Lund Rasmussen, from the University of Oxford, England, had the idea to build a sound device that could scare hedgehogs away from roads.(刺猬数量正在减少，汽车是一个重要因素。人们认为多达三分之一的刺猬在过马路时被汽车撞死。来自英国牛津大学的索菲·隆德·拉斯穆森有了一个想法，即制造一种声音设备，可以把刺猬从马路上吓跑)”可知，需要声音设备是为了减少刺猬的死亡。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Frequency measures how much a sound wave vibrates in one second. Anything over 20 kHz, which is the limit that humans can hear, is in the “ultrasonic” range. Dogs can hear up to 45kHz and cats up to 65kHz. In other words, hedgehogs can hear super high-pitched noises that humans, dogs and cats can’t pick up.(频率衡量的是一秒内声波的振动次数。超过20千赫兹（人类能听到的极限）的声音都在“超声波”范围内。狗能听到高达45千赫兹的声音，猫能听到高达65千赫兹的声音。换句话说，刺猬能听到人类、狗和猫听不到的超高音调的噪音)”可知，刺猬能听到的频率范围比人类、狗和猫都广，即刺猬的听力范围最广。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“This could be attached to cars and lawnmowers to scare hedgehogs away from danger, but not be annoying to humans or most pets.(这种设备可以安装在汽车和割草机上，把刺猬从危险中吓跑，但又不会让人类或大多数宠物感到厌烦)”可知，超声波设备可用于防止刺猬遭遇危险。 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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The power of pets Pets are more than just companions; they are lifelines, offering profound emotional and psychological benefits that positively impact our well-being.

I started using TalkTrails half a year ago because I wanted to improve my spoken English. The AI tutor’s feedback and scoring system were very helpful, and I felt more confident about pronunciation and sentence patterns. However, when I attended my school’s English Corner, I found it hard to keep up with native speakers’ natural speed, slang, and changing tones. To make the app even more effective, I suggest adding recordings of authentic conversations with different accents and more slang examples. Thank you for considering my feedback. I look forward to seeing an even better TalkTrails.

On one particular day, I was teaching in a very difficult class. Some of the schoolboys didn’t finish their homework on time and that really annoyed me. I was managing behaviour all morning and by lunchtime I knew I needed coffee to even consider surviving the afternoon. So on my lunchtime, I drove to a nearby plaza to get a cup of coffee. There I had a wonderful time and forgot the unpleasant experience in the morning. Upon returning to the car, I realized I had locked my keys and my phone inside! I had about 15 minutes to get back to the school which was a good 4-or-5-minute drive away. I considered rushing back, but it was winter, and I thought a dirty fall on ice would only make the situation much worse. So I ran into a Mcdonald’s which was in the same plaza and asked the man at the counter to call me a cab. The man happened to be the manager of the restaurant. I briefly explained my situation to him, and I could tell by the look, that he empathized. He hurried to the back to use the phone while I paced in the restaurant. I had less than 10 minutes to get back to my school at this point. The manager returned, only to tell me that the cab company had put him on hold and then the line got disconnected, and that he was now on hold again, but had not yet been able to request the cab yet. My expression, I am sure, began to resemble some combination of hopelessness and fear. 注意:续写词数应为150左右。 Without a thought, the manager grabbed his coat and offered to drive me to the school. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The manager’s calm behaviour and kind nature made me think ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Without a thought, the manager grabbed his coat and offered to drive me to the school. Without hesitation, I followed him into his car and made it back into my classroom with 2 minutes to spare before the bell! Upon arriving at the school, I thanked this man endlessly. The manager’s calm behaviour and kind nature made me think he was probably a wonderful manager to work for, and also a wonderful human being to have on this earth. This experience makes me realize that out of every seemingly hopeless situation, there is the opportunity for acts of kindness to happen, which can have an unimaginable impact on those who receive them. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者是一名老师，这天在外面喝咖啡的时候，不小心把钥匙和手机锁在车里了，快要赶不上上课了，这是多亏了善良的麦当劳的经理开车送作者，作者非常感谢对方。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“经理不假思索地抓起外套，提出开车送我去学校”可知，第一段可描写经理要送作者去学校，作者感谢经理。 ②由第二段首句内容“经理冷静的行为和善良的本性让我觉得……”可知，第二段可描写作者对经理行为的感悟和感激。 2.续写线索：经理提出开车送作者——作者回到学校——感谢经理——作者感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①影响：have an impact on/influence ②提出：offer/propose ③到达：arrive/reach 情绪类 ①感谢：thank/show gratitude to ②绝望的：hopeless /desperate 【点睛】[高分句型1] Upon arriving at the school, I thanked this man endlessly.
