B Clarke Reynolds, a 45-year-old blind artist, plans to run the Brighton Marathon using technology that connects him to sighted volunteers in real time. Reynolds, known as “Mr. Dot”, creates braille (盲文) art to raise awareness of sight loss. He has been visually impaired (受损的) in his right eye since age six, and lost vision in his left eye 13 years ago. He now describes his sight as “being underwater” — able to see shapes, shadows and some colour. He once created a braille copy of Nirvana’s “Nevermind” album cover. Three years ago, he completed the London Marathon with a physical guide runner. Later this month, he’ll be running the Brighton Marathon — but he is taking his challenge to a new level. Rather than using a physical guide, he will use an app called Be My Eyes to connect him with a worldwide network of sighted volunteers. Using the camera and speakers on his smart glasses, the volunteers will be able to see what he sees and speak to him in real time, directing him through the 26.2 miles. “They tell me if there’s a bin or a parked car,” he says. “But most of the time we just discuss what sight loss is.” Be My Eyes is normally used for daily tasks, like helping a visually impaired person find the right button on a TV remote. Reynolds activates it by saying, “Hey Meta, come be my eyes.” The volunteers also act as his cheerleaders. He has trained by running laps on the 0.7-mile road where he lives — a route he knows by heart. Over 100 people have supported him, some from as far as Jordan. The volunteers for race day are being organized by Fight for Sight, a charity funding sight loss research, for which Reynolds is an ambassador. A backup guide runner will be ready in case the technology fails. Although he was daunted before the London Marathon, he feels confident about Brighton. “If you had told me 13 years ago that I’d be inspiring visually impaired children around the world, I’d never have believed you,” he says. 4. Why does Reynolds mention “being underwater”? A. To explain his poor and foggy vision. B. To show his passion for underwater sports. C. To describe the feeling of creating braille art. D. To stress the difficulty of running a marathon. 5. How will Reynolds run the Brighton Marathon differently? A. By using smart glasses. B. By using separate speakers. C. With a physical guide runner. D. With volunteers running beside him. 6. What role do the volunteers play? A. They are on-site cheerleaders. B. They are professional marathon athletes. C. They promote the app through TV remotes. D. They provide practical and emotional support. 7. What does the underlined word “daunted” in the last paragraph mean? A. Overjoyed. B. Scared. C. Enthusiastic. D. Regretful. C With a tap on a smartphone screen, a smart drip irrigation system (滴灌系统) is activated, delivering water and fertilizer (肥料) directly to the roots of wheat plants. This scene, unfolding in fields across China, marks a significant departure from the traditional labor - intensive methods that once defined the country’s spring sowing season. As 2026 spring farming is in full swing, integrated digital solutions and artificial intelligence (AI) are redefining agricultural productivity. At a smart farmland in Kunshan, east China’s Jiangsu Province, over 3,800 mu of fields are managed with minimal human involvement. Drones fly over fields to collect real - time data, which is used to create 3D agricultural maps. AI analyzes the maps and issues precise instructions for irrigation and fertilization. Local farmers confirm that drones cover large areas efficiently, making field management more accurate and increasing their confidence in a good harvest. Intelligent seeding machines, equipped with advanced control systems, ensure consistent planting placement and precise seed volume, greatly improving seedling emergence rates compared with traditional tools. In Wuxi’s vegetable industrial park, automated seedling machines are operating at full speed. “In the past, we needed at least 20 workers. Now, four people can easily handle the task,” said Zhang Dapeng, head of the base. Smart germination (育苗) rooms and transport vehicles have further raised production efficiency and seedling quality. In Nanjing’s tea gardens, Internet of Things monitoring and intelligent electric production lines have replaced charcoal stoves, improving tea quality by nearly 50 percent and raising farmers’ annual income by 70 percent. This digital transformation has become a national trend. The contribution of agricultural science and technology in China exceeded 64 percent in 2025. Smart agriculture is expanding quickly from coastal plains to inland areas, with local authorities providing support for weather services and energy supply. As Yi Zhongyi, head of Jiangsu’s academy of rural vitalization, pointed out, digital and intelligent technologies are running through every part of agricultural production, breaking through the bottlenecks of traditional agriculture and fueling its high - quality and green development. 8. What do drones do at the smart farmland in Kunshan? A. Collect live data. B. Water the wheat directly. C. Operate seeding machines. D. Improve seedling emergence rates. 9. How has smart technology benefited Wuxi’s vegetable park? A. It has increased tea quality. B. It has provided energy support. C. It has greatly reduced labor needs. D. It has replaced all traditional tools. 10. What is Yi Zhongyi’s attitude toward smart agriculture? A. Doubtful. B. Supportive. C. Objective. D. Unconcerned. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. AI in Modern Farming. B. Smarter Spring Farming in China. C. Intelligent Irrigation: A Path for Growth. D. Traditional Agriculture: A Thing of the Past. D Despite the enormous variety of languages spoken around the world, certain grammatical patterns keep showing up. A new study finds that about one-third of long-standing “linguistic universals” (语言共性) are backed by strong statistical evidence when tested using modern evolutionary methods. An international research team led by Annemarie Verkerk and Russell D. Gray analyzed 191 proposed universals using Grambank, the largest database of grammatical features ever constructed. Their dataset covered more than 1,700 languages. In earlier research, linguists tried to avoid similarities between related or nearby languages by selecting samples from distant regions. While helpful, that approach does not completely eliminate hidden connections between languages. It can also weaken statistical results and fails to reveal how languages change over time. To address this, the researchers used Bayesian spatio-phylogenetic analyses, which account for both shared ancestry and geographic influence. This approach offers a much higher level of statistical reliability than most previous studies. “In the face of huge linguistic diversity, it is fascinating to find that languages don’t evolve at random,” says Verkerk. “I am delighted that the different types of analyses we did reached very similar results, suggesting that language change must be a central component in explaining universals.” The findings show strong support for several repeating patterns. These include word order preferences and hierarchical structures (多级结构). Importantly, these patterns have appeared repeatedly across unrelated languages in different parts of the world. This repetition suggests that there are deep limits guiding how humans organize language. Senior author Russell Gray reflected, “We discussed whether to write this up as a glass-half-empty paper — ‘look how many proposed universals don’t hold’ — or a glass-half-full paper — ‘there’s strong statistical support for about a third’. In the end, we chose to highlight the patterns that evolve repeatedly, showing that shared cognitive (认知的) and communicative pressures push languages towards a limited set of preferred grammatical solutions.” By identifying which universals truly stand up to strict testing, the study helps narrow the focus for future research. It points scientists toward the basic cognitive and communicative forces that shape human language. 12. What can we know about the new study? A. It constructed a language database. B. It revealed no grammatical patterns. C. It obtained strong statistical support. D. It analyzed 1,700 proposed universals. 13. How does the author develop the second paragraph? A. By listing figures. B. By giving an example. C. By describing problems. D. By making a comparison. 14. What satisfied Verkerk about the research results? A. Patterns in all languages. B. Random evolution rule, C. Full explanation of diversity. D. Consistent analysis results. 15. What can be implied from the last two paragraphs? A. Scientists will shape human language. B. Future research may have a clearer focus. C. Shared pressures enlarge language sets. D. Different perspectives affect research results. 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 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。 The ability to solve problems and think analytically is very important.

Josh Collins, a 17-year-old boy, was having his holiday there with his younger brother Max and father Matthew. The three talked lazily as they walked along the shore, the salty wind brushing their cheeks. Suddenly, a sharp, sad cry broke the soft sound of the waves. “Did you hear that?” Max held Josh’s arm, his eyes wide with worry. Matthew stopped, listening carefully, and then said, “It’s an animal, and it’s in danger.” Following the sound, they found a soft white sheep stuck on a tiny rocky ledge (暗礁), the rising tide (潮水) touching its feet, leaving it with no way to get away. Fear showed in the sheep’s eyes, and Josh’s heart grew tight — he knew they had to act quickly. They quickly thought of ways to save it: climbing the slippery rocks might make them fall, and there were no ropes nearby to pull the sheep up. Swimming was the only choice, even though the seawater was cold and the currents were strong. Without thinking twice, Josh took off his shoes and shirt, his determination showing in his eyes. Matthew took out his phone to record, while Max and a nearby beach visitor stood on the shore, shouting encouragement, their voices warm and comforting. Every person watching held their breath, looking on anxiously as Josh swam toward the ledge. The cold seawater hurt his skin, and the rough waves pushed him back again and again, but he kept going. After a tense fight, he finally reached the sheep, which huddled (蜷缩) tightly on the tiny ledge, shaking with fear. Josh gently held out his hand to calm it, but just as he took hold of its wool, a big wave hit them, sweeping both him and the sheep into the water. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: They were caught in the strong currents, but he held the sheep tightly. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: That video Matthew took was posted online, and it spread quickly. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 永州市2026年高考第三次模拟考试 英 语 注意事项： 1．本试卷共10页，满分150分。考试用时120分钟。考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 2．答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号填写在答题卡上。 3．选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑，如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号，不能答在本试卷上，否则无效。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。 1.

He has been visually impaired (受损的) in his right eye since age six, and lost vision in his left eye 13 years ago. He now describes his sight as “being underwater” — able to see shapes, shadows and some colour. He once created a braille copy of Nirvana’s “Nevermind” album cover. Three years ago, he completed the London Marathon with a physical guide runner. Later this month, he’ll be running the Brighton Marathon — but he is taking his challenge to a new level. Rather than using a physical guide, he will use an app called Be My Eyes to connect him with a worldwide network of sighted volunteers. Using the camera and speakers on his smart glasses, the volunteers will be able to see what he sees and speak to him in real time, directing him through the 26.2 miles. “They tell me if there’s a bin or a parked car,” he says. “But most of the time we just discuss what sight loss is.” Be My Eyes is normally used for daily tasks, like helping a visually impaired person find the right button on a TV remote. Reynolds activates it by saying, “Hey Meta, come be my eyes.” The volunteers also act as his cheerleaders. He has trained by running laps on the 0.7-mile road where he lives — a route he knows by heart. Over 100 people have supported him, some from as far as Jordan. The volunteers for race day are being organized by Fight for Sight, a charity funding sight loss research, for which Reynolds is an ambassador. A backup guide runner will be ready in case the technology fails. Although he was daunted before the London Marathon, he feels confident about Brighton. “If you had told me 13 years ago that I’d be inspiring visually impaired children around the world, I’d never have believed you,” he says. 4. Why does Reynolds mention “being underwater”? A. To explain his poor and foggy vision. B. To show his passion for underwater sports. C. To describe the feeling of creating braille art. D. To stress the difficulty of running a marathon. 5. How will Reynolds run the Brighton Marathon differently? A. By using smart glasses. B. By using separate speakers. C. With a physical guide runner. D. With volunteers running beside him. 6. What role do the volunteers play? A. They are on-site cheerleaders. B. They are professional marathon athletes. C. They promote the app through TV remotes. D. They provide practical and emotional support. 7. What does the underlined word “daunted” in the last paragraph mean? A. Overjoyed. B. Scared. C. Enthusiastic. D. Regretful. 【答案】4. A 5. A 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】主要讲述盲人艺术家雷诺兹借助智能软件与志愿者协助，挑战布莱顿马拉松的励志故事。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“He has been visually impaired in his right eye since age six, and lost vision in his left eye 13 years ago. He now describes his sight as “being underwater” — able to see shapes, shadows and some colour.(他六岁起右眼视力受损，十三年前左眼完全失明，如今用“置身水下”形容视力状况，仅能看清轮廓、阴影与部分色彩。)”可知，该表述是为了形象说明自己模糊不清、状况糟糕的视力。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Rather than using a physical guide, he will use an app called Be My Eyes to connect him with a worldwide network of sighted volunteers. Using the camera and speakers on his smart glasses, the volunteers will be able to see what he sees and speak to him in real time.(他不再依靠实体导盲辅助工具，而是借助一款名为Be My Eyes的应用，接入全球视力正常志愿者的互助网络。志愿者可通过他智能眼镜上的摄像头与扬声器，实时看到他眼前的景象，并和他即时对话。)”可知，本次马拉松的不同之处在于使用智能眼镜辅助前行。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的““They tell me if there’s a bin or a parked car,” he says.(他说：“他们会告诉我前方有没有垃圾桶或是停放的汽车。”)”以及“The volunteers also act as his cheerleaders.(志愿者们还充当他的啦啦队。)”可知，志愿者既提供实际路线帮助，也给予情绪上的鼓励与支持。 【7题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段中的“Although he was daunted before the London Marathon, he feels confident about Brighton.(虽然参加伦敦马拉松前他很daunted，但这次面对布莱顿马拉松，他充满信心。)”可知，前后形成转折对比，confident表示自信，由此可推知，画线单词意为“胆怯、害怕”。 C With a tap on a smartphone screen, a smart drip irrigation system (滴灌系统) is activated, delivering water and fertilizer (肥料) directly to the roots of wheat plants. This scene, unfolding in fields across China, marks a significant departure from the traditional labor - intensive methods that once defined the country’s spring sowing season. As 2026 spring farming is in full swing, integrated digital solutions and artificial intelligence (AI) are redefining agricultural productivity. At a smart farmland in Kunshan, east China’s Jiangsu Province, over 3,800 mu of fields are managed with minimal human involvement. Drones fly over fields to collect real - time data, which is used to create 3D agricultural maps. AI analyzes the maps and issues precise instructions for irrigation and fertilization. Local farmers confirm that drones cover large areas efficiently, making field management more accurate and increasing their confidence in a good harvest. Intelligent seeding machines, equipped with advanced control systems, ensure consistent planting placement and precise seed volume, greatly improving seedling emergence rates compared with traditional tools. In Wuxi’s vegetable industrial park, automated seedling machines are operating at full speed. “In the past, we needed at least 20 workers. Now, four people can easily handle the task,” said Zhang Dapeng, head of the base. Smart germination (育苗) rooms and transport vehicles have further raised production efficiency and seedling quality. In Nanjing’s tea gardens, Internet of Things monitoring and intelligent electric production lines have replaced charcoal stoves, improving tea quality by nearly 50 percent and raising farmers’ annual income by 70 percent. This digital transformation has become a national trend. The contribution of agricultural science and technology in China exceeded 64 percent in 2025. Smart agriculture is expanding quickly from coastal plains to inland areas, with local authorities providing support for weather services and energy supply. As Yi Zhongyi, head of Jiangsu’s academy of rural vitalization, pointed out, digital and intelligent technologies are running through every part of agricultural production, breaking through the bottlenecks of traditional agriculture and fueling its high - quality and green development. 8. What do drones do at the smart farmland in Kunshan? A. Collect live data. B. Water the wheat directly. C. Operate seeding machines. D. Improve seedling emergence rates. 9. How has smart technology benefited Wuxi’s vegetable park? A. It has increased tea quality. B. It has provided energy support. C. It has greatly reduced labor needs. D. It has replaced all traditional tools. 10. What is Yi Zhongyi’s attitude toward smart agriculture? A. Doubtful. B. Supportive. C. Objective. D. Unconcerned. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. AI in Modern Farming. B. Smarter Spring Farming in China. C. Intelligent Irrigation: A Path for Growth. D. Traditional Agriculture: A Thing of the Past. 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了中国在春耕时节利用数字技术和人工智能提高农业生产效率的情况。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Drones fly over fields to collect real-time data, which is used to create 3D agricultural maps.(无人机飞越农田收集实时数据，用于创建三维农业地图。)”可知，无人机在昆山的智能农田上收集实时数据。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“In the past, we needed at least 20 workers. Now, four people can easily handle the task.(过去，我们至少需要20名工人。现在，四个人可以轻松完成这项任务。)”可知，智能技术大大减少了劳动力需求。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“As Yi Zhongyi, head of Jiangsu’s academy of rural vitalization, pointed out, digital and intelligent technologies are running through every part of agricultural production, breaking through the bottlenecks of traditional agriculture and fueling its high - quality and green development.(正如江苏省乡村振兴研究院院长易中懿所指出的，数字和智能技术贯穿于农业生产的各个环节，突破了传统农业的瓶颈，推动了其高质量和绿色发展。)”可知，易中懿认为数字和智能技术贯穿于农业生产的各个环节，突破了传统农业的瓶颈，推动了其高质量和绿色发展，这表明易中懿对智能农业是支持的。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“As 2026 spring farming is in full swing, integrated digital solutions and artificial intelligence (AI) are redefining agricultural productivity.(随着2026年春耕如火如荼地进行，综合数字解决方案和人工智能正在重新定义农业生产力。)”可知，短文主要介绍了中国在春耕时节利用数字技术和人工智能提高农业生产效率的情况，所以B项“中国更智能的春耕”适合作为本文的标题。 D Despite the enormous variety of languages spoken around the world, certain grammatical patterns keep showing up. A new study finds that about one-third of long-standing “linguistic universals” (语言共性) are backed by strong statistical evidence when tested using modern evolutionary methods. An international research team led by Annemarie Verkerk and Russell D. Gray analyzed 191 proposed universals using Grambank, the largest database of grammatical features ever constructed. Their dataset covered more than 1,700 languages. In earlier research, linguists tried to avoid similarities between related or nearby languages by selecting samples from distant regions. While helpful, that approach does not completely eliminate hidden connections between languages. It can also weaken statistical results and fails to reveal how languages change over time. To address this, the researchers used Bayesian spatio-phylogenetic analyses, which account for both shared ancestry and geographic influence. This approach offers a much higher level of statistical reliability than most previous studies. “In the face of huge linguistic diversity, it is fascinating to find that languages don’t evolve at random,” says Verkerk. “I am delighted that the different types of analyses we did reached very similar results, suggesting that language change must be a central component in explaining universals.” The findings show strong support for several repeating patterns. These include word order preferences and hierarchical structures (多级结构). Importantly, these patterns have appeared repeatedly across unrelated languages in different parts of the world. This repetition suggests that there are deep limits guiding how humans organize language. Senior author Russell Gray reflected, “We discussed whether to write this up as a glass-half-empty paper — ‘look how many proposed universals don’t hold’ — or a glass-half-full paper — ‘there’s strong statistical support for about a third’. In the end, we chose to highlight the patterns that evolve repeatedly, showing that shared cognitive (认知的) and communicative pressures push languages towards a limited set of preferred grammatical solutions.” By identifying which universals truly stand up to strict testing, the study helps narrow the focus for future research. It points scientists toward the basic cognitive and communicative forces that shape human language. 12. What can we know about the new study? A. It constructed a language database. B. It revealed no grammatical patterns. C. It obtained strong statistical support. D. It analyzed 1,700 proposed universals. 13. How does the author develop the second paragraph? A. By listing figures. B. By giving an example. C. By describing problems. D. By making a comparison. 14. What satisfied Verkerk about the research results? A. Patterns in all languages. B. Random evolution rule, C. Full explanation of diversity. D. Consistent analysis results. 15. What can be implied from the last two paragraphs? A. Scientists will shape human language. B. Future research may have a clearer focus. C. Shared pressures enlarge language sets. D. Different perspectives affect research results. 【答案】12. C 13. C 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了一项关于语言共性的新研究。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“A new study finds that about one-third of long-standing ‘linguistic universals’ are backed by strong statistical evidence when tested using modern evolutionary methods.(一项新的研究发现，当使用现代进化方法进行测试时，大约三分之一的长期存在的“语言共性”得到了强有力的统计证据的支持。)”可知，这项新研究获得了强有力的统计支持。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“In earlier research, linguists tried to avoid similarities between related or nearby languages by selecting samples from distant regions. While helpful, that approach does not completely eliminate hidden connections between languages. It can also weaken statistical results and fails to reveal how languages change over time. To address this, the researchers used Bayesian spatio-phylogenetic analyses, which account for both shared ancestry and geographic influence. This approach offers a much higher level of statistical reliability than most previous studies.(在早期研究中，语言学家会通过选取偏远地区的语言样本，来规避同源或邻近语言之间的相似性。这种方法虽有作用，却无法完全消除语言间隐藏的关联，还会削弱统计结果的准确性，也无法揭示语言随时间演变的规律。为解决这些问题，研究人员采用了贝叶斯时空系统发育分析法，该方法能兼顾物种共同祖先与地理因素的影响，统计可信度远高于以往大多数研究。)”可知，第二段描述了早期研究方法存在的问题，然后介绍了研究人员为解决这些问题所采用的新方法，由此可知，行文逻辑为描述问题。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“I am delighted that the different types of analyses we did reached very similar results, suggesting that language change must be a central component in explaining universals.(我很高兴我们做的不同类型的分析得出了非常相似的结果，这表明语言变化一定是解释语言共性的核心组成部分。)”可知，一致的分析结果让Verkerk对研究结果感到满意。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段In the end, we chose to highlight the patterns that evolve repeatedly, showing that shared cognitive and communicative pressures push languages towards a limited set of preferred grammatical solutions.(最后，我们选择强调那些反复演变的模式，这表明共同的认知和交流压力推动语言向一组有限的、首选的语法解决方案发展。)”和最后一段“By identifying which universals truly stand up to strict testing, the study helps narrow the focus for future research. It points scientists toward the basic cognitive and communicative forces that shape human language.(通过确定哪些共性真正经得起严格的测试，这项研究有助于缩小未来研究的范围。它为科学家指明了塑造人类语言的基本认知和交流力量。)”可知，未来的研究可能会有更清晰的焦点。 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 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。 The ability to solve problems and think analytically is very important.

Josh Collins, a 17-year-old boy, was having his holiday there with his younger brother Max and father Matthew. The three talked lazily as they walked along the shore, the salty wind brushing their cheeks. Suddenly, a sharp, sad cry broke the soft sound of the waves. “Did you hear that?” Max held Josh’s arm, his eyes wide with worry. Matthew stopped, listening carefully, and then said, “It’s an animal, and it’s in danger.” Following the sound, they found a soft white sheep stuck on a tiny rocky ledge (暗礁), the rising tide (潮水) touching its feet, leaving it with no way to get away. Fear showed in the sheep’s eyes, and Josh’s heart grew tight — he knew they had to act quickly. They quickly thought of ways to save it: climbing the slippery rocks might make them fall, and there were no ropes nearby to pull the sheep up. Swimming was the only choice, even though the seawater was cold and the currents were strong. Without thinking twice, Josh took off his shoes and shirt, his determination showing in his eyes. Matthew took out his phone to record, while Max and a nearby beach visitor stood on the shore, shouting encouragement, their voices warm and comforting. Every person watching held their breath, looking on anxiously as Josh swam toward the ledge. The cold seawater hurt his skin, and the rough waves pushed him back again and again, but he kept going. After a tense fight, he finally reached the sheep, which huddled (蜷缩) tightly on the tiny ledge, shaking with fear. Josh gently held out his hand to calm it, but just as he took hold of its wool, a big wave hit them, sweeping both him and the sheep into the water. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: They were caught in the strong currents, but he held the sheep tightly. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: That video Matthew took was posted online, and it spread quickly. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1: They were caught in the strong currents, but he held the sheep tightly. Cold and exhausted, Josh struggled hard to keep them both afloat. Fighting against the powerful waves, he guided the frightened sheep slowly toward the shore. His arms ached terribly and his legs felt heavy, yet he never gave up. With the cheers from Max and other people filling his ears, he made steady progress. After a long struggle, Josh finally got close to the shallow water, where people rushed to help pull them safely onto the beach. The tired sheep soon calmed down and stood slowly. Paragraph 2: That video Matthew took was posted online, and it spread quickly. Countless netizens praised Josh for his bravery and kindness. Many were moved by his courage to risk his life to save a helpless animal. Josh said he only did what he should do, and every life deserved to be treasured. This unforgettable experience taught him that kindness and determination can always bring hope to those in danger. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述少年乔希不顾冰冷海水与汹涌海浪，冒险下水营救被困礁石的绵羊，最终成功脱险、救人善举被视频记录并广为传播的暖心故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写 ① 由第一段首句内容可知，接下来可描写乔希强忍寒冷体力不支，奋力对抗湍急水流，在岸边众人鼓励下艰难靠近浅滩，最终被众人接应，人和绵羊都平安上岸。 ② 由第二段首句内容可知，接下来可描写救援视频走红网络，网友纷纷点赞称赞乔希勇敢善良，乔希淡然表态珍惜每一个生命，收获成长感悟。 2. 续写线索 紧抓绵羊奋力对抗急流——强忍疲惫坚持向前——岸边众人合力接应——成功平安上岸——救援视频全网走红——收获众人夸赞——感悟善意与生命可贵 3.词类激活 行为类 ①放弃：give up/quit ②表扬：praise/compliment 情绪类 ①疲惫的：exhausted/tired/worn-out ②恐惧的：frightened/scared/terrified 【点睛】【高分句型1】Cold and exhausted, Josh struggled hard to keep them both afloat.（运用了形容词作状语） 【高分句型2】 With the cheers from Max and other people filling his ears, he made steady progress. （运用了with复合结构） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
