B It is a universal truth that no one can go through life without ever experiencing failure. The problem many of us face, however, is that we automatically equate experiencing failure with being a failure. We view it as something to be ashamed of, or embarrassed about, something to be avoided or hidden. In fact, failure gives us an opportunity to learn, adapt and grow. It should be expected on the way to achieving life goals and used as a feedback mechanism to get it right next time, or the time after. I recently saw a woman who had to give up studying for her university degree. She had bipolar disorder and was unable to cope with the pressure of studying. She was studying to be a teacher and had hoped to find a teaching job. However, she failed her exams and job interviews, and overall felt like she was failing to achieve anything. One of the things she enjoyed doing was singing in a band. So in order to earn a bit of money, she began giving singing lessons to children in her community. Fast forward 18 months and she now has her own growing business of teaching singing full-time. She hasn’t achieved this goal in the way she imagined, and she wouldn’t have embarked on this path without the setbacks she encountered. What was it about this woman that made her succeed? Yes, failure had a big part to play, but the ability to bounce back and be flexible was an important factor. An important part of developing flexibility is having a supportive network. Having relationships with people who can support us helps us go through tough times. Our attitudes toward ourselves are also crucially important — including a sense that we are in control of our actions, have confidence in what we do, realize our strengths and set ourselves achievable and realistic goals. The secret to flexibility lies in accepting that there are things in life we cannot change. Rather than thinking of ourselves as victims, we need to realize we have the ability to change the way we think and behave. Ultimately, we will realize life may throw manure at us, but we can grow roses with it. 4. What do people usually think of failure? A. Shameful. B. Unavoidable. C. Changeable. D. Rewarding. 5. Why did the woman stop studying for her university degree? A. Lack of academic interest B. Illness and study stress C. Eagerness for faster earnings D. Repeated exam failures 6. What saying can describe the woman’s story? A. Every cloud has a silver lining. B. Make hay (干草) while the sun shines. C. A rolling stone gathers no moss (苔藓). D. Don’t put all eggs in one basket. 7. What can we learn from the text ? A. Bipolar disorder prevents success. B. Singing is a better career for the woman. C. Failure should be avoided in tough conditions. D. Embracing the unchangeable with adaptability is significant. C When my son was little, he liked to run in our driveway until he fell. He would then turn to me to see if he was hurt. If my face betrayed worry or concern, he would cry. If I stayed calm, he would brush himself off and get back to running. Here was this human being who was counting on me to make sense of the world — not just how to tie his shoes or recite the ABCs, but how to feel. Years later, in middle school, this lesson returned. One night, my son told me about a classmate who had been unkind to him. My first reaction was to rush to fix it — email the parents, call the school, demand action. But instead of reacting, I paused. “That sounds hard. What did you do?” “I decided not to hang out with him for a while,” my son replied. “I am going to try playing soccer at lunch instead.” “That’s a great solution,” I said, and he went back to his homework. These ordinary parenting moments taught me an important truth: sometimes, the best thing a parent can do is doing nothing at all. Over 30 years in schools, too often I’ve watched parents overreacting, robbing their kids of the confidence that comes from struggling, and exhausting themselves in the process. Most Americans now believe that young people will not be better off than their parents. They see greater competition for fewer resources — be it college admissions, jobs, or housing. However, a young person who gets used to having a parent intervene on his behalf begins to believe that he’s not capable of acting on his own, feeling both anxiety and dependence. I want to make a case for the Lighthouse Parent, a term that the educator has used. A lighthouse parent stands as a steady, reliable guide, providing safety and understanding without controlling every aspect of their child’s journey, like a lighthouse that helps sailors avoid crashing into rocks. The key is learning when to step back and enable them to find their own way. 8. What does the author want to tell with the example of his child falling? A. Children should be prevented from taking risks. B. Parents can feel exactly what their children feel. C. Parents’ reaction influences children’s mental state. D. Children would cry regardless of parental guidance. 9. What does the underlined word “intervene” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Step in. B. Move on. C. Speak up. D. Take off. 10. What kind of parent is the author? A. Distant. B. Traditional. C. Supportive. D. Overprotective. 11. What would Lighthouse Parents do when children are anxious about a school presentation? A. Complete the task for the child. B. Contact and criticize the teacher. C. Ask the child to report every step. D. Guide the child while letting them act. D Just as is often the case, many people are led to believe that there are certain activities they simply cannot accomplish. But a new invention proves that where there is a will, there is a way. Dr. Zacharias Vamvakousis has come up with a creative way to improve the quality of life for countless people through the power of music. His invention is called EyeHarp, which enables individuals to make music using their gaze (注视) instead of their hands. “EyeHarp is the first musical application that allows people with disabilities to play music with eyes or head movements,” Zacharias explains. “Using an eye tracker, you can make melodies by looking at the notes on the screen.” EyeHarp uses the same type of digital eye-tracking technology used in some computer games. But instead of using it to aim weapons at digital opponents, EyeHarp uses it to track your eyes as they stay on different musical notes on a colorful circle on your computer screen. The application allows you to play three to four notes every second. However, users have to be careful not to move their eyes too quickly from one musical note to the next. So, much like any other instrument, playing a tune takes practice and concentration. Zacharias was inspired to create the magical application after a musician friend was badly hurt in a motorcycle accident. His friend was worried he’d never be able to play his guitar again, so Zacharias decided to find a new way to make music available to him. While his friend didn’t end up needing EyeHarp, Zacharias was on a mission to help others who thought music was forever lost to them. These are people who are so disabled that they don’t have the opportunity to do many things and learning music through EyeHarp gives them happiness, the purpose and the opportunity to play music. Zacharias agreed, saying that music builds social connections and raises self-esteem. He’s currently training music teachers to use EyeHarp so they can reach even more people with disabilities. This invention has the potential for changing so many lives. Hundreds of people with disabilities have used EyeHarp. “There wasn’t any instrument they could play. But now, they’re able to make their own music,” says Zacharias. “I hope it will light up the lives of more people like them.” 12. How does EyeHarp work according to the passage? A. By tracking the movement of players’ hands. B. By detecting the sound of a music note. C. By following the stay of the gaze on the screen. D. By recognizing the face of a disabled user. 13. What inspired Zacharias to create the application? A. His love for music and technology. B. A need for a new form of musical therapy. C. A desire to help his musician friend. D. A sympathy towards people with disabilities. 14. What can we infer about EyeHarp from the passage? A. It is very difficult to play. B. It can be used by anyone easily. C. It has limited musical notes. D. It brings hope to many disabled people. 15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. From Guitar to Gaze: A Musician’s Recovery Story. B. EyeHarp: Making Music with a Glance. C. How Eye Trackers Work in Computer Games. D. Training Music Teachers for the Disabled. 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。 For people who are planning a trip, a visit to a museum might not be the first thing they think of.

I’d had Apple only a couple of weeks, but we’d become nearly inseparable. I opened the car door. Apple jumped in and settled down on the passenger seat. I started the car and set off. It’s always tricky turning around. I live in a remote area up in the hills, surrounded by woods. I have to drive up the mountain to get to my driveway, which is hardly wide enough for one car and ends at a steep valley. I twisted around and backed up slowly. Just then, a flash of sunlight blinded me. I put my hand up to cover my eyes. I felt a shake as the left rear part of the car dropped. Oh, no! The car slipped and rolled. We landed upside down. I felt a sharp pain in my chest and my legs. I couldn’t move. I looked over to find Apple. She was still in the passenger seat and fortunately, she was okay. I grabbed my cell phone and dialed 911. But just as I’d feared, there was no signal at the bottom of this valley. Now what? Robert, my closest neighbor, lived a quarter mile uphill from me and had his own driveway. It was unlikely that he or anyone else would drive up to my house. Apple barked nervously. At least I could get her out of here. There was a hole in the driver’s side rear window. “Come on, Apple,” I said. Painfully, I reached over, picked her up, and gently put her head through the hole. “Go home, baby.” She jumped to the ground and raced up the side of the valley. As the sun set, it turned cold. I trembled with cold and pain. My pulse was weakening. I closed my eyes. Suddenly, I was awakened by loud barks． 注意： （1）续写词数应为150左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题纸相应位置作答。 “Help!” I shouted with all my strength. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Later, Robert told me that when he got home from work, Apple was waiting for him. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 萍乡市2025—2026学年度第二学期期中考试 高一英语试卷 （考试时间: 120分钟, 试卷满分: 150分） 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号等填写在答题卡上。 2. 回答选择题时，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。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 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，并标在试卷的相应位置。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. What color dress did the woman buy yesterday?

The problem many of us face, however, is that we automatically equate experiencing failure with being a failure. We view it as something to be ashamed of, or embarrassed about, something to be avoided or hidden. In fact, failure gives us an opportunity to learn, adapt and grow. It should be expected on the way to achieving life goals and used as a feedback mechanism to get it right next time, or the time after. I recently saw a woman who had to give up studying for her university degree. She had bipolar disorder and was unable to cope with the pressure of studying. She was studying to be a teacher and had hoped to find a teaching job. However, she failed her exams and job interviews, and overall felt like she was failing to achieve anything. One of the things she enjoyed doing was singing in a band. So in order to earn a bit of money, she began giving singing lessons to children in her community. Fast forward 18 months and she now has her own growing business of teaching singing full-time. She hasn’t achieved this goal in the way she imagined, and she wouldn’t have embarked on this path without the setbacks she encountered. What was it about this woman that made her succeed? Yes, failure had a big part to play, but the ability to bounce back and be flexible was an important factor. An important part of developing flexibility is having a supportive network. Having relationships with people who can support us helps us go through tough times. Our attitudes toward ourselves are also crucially important — including a sense that we are in control of our actions, have confidence in what we do, realize our strengths and set ourselves achievable and realistic goals. The secret to flexibility lies in accepting that there are things in life we cannot change. Rather than thinking of ourselves as victims, we need to realize we have the ability to change the way we think and behave. Ultimately, we will realize life may throw manure at us, but we can grow roses with it. 4. What do people usually think of failure? A. Shameful. B. Unavoidable. C. Changeable. D. Rewarding. 5. Why did the woman stop studying for her university degree? A. Lack of academic interest B. Illness and study stress C. Eagerness for faster earnings D. Repeated exam failures 6. What saying can describe the woman’s story? A. Every cloud has a silver lining. B. Make hay (干草) while the sun shines. C. A rolling stone gathers no moss (苔藓). D. Don’t put all eggs in one basket. 7. What can we learn from the text ? A. Bipolar disorder prevents success. B. Singing is a better career for the woman. C. Failure should be avoided in tough conditions. D. Embracing the unchangeable with adaptability is significant. 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要探讨了人们对失败的态度，强调了失败是成长和学习的机会，并通过一个具体事例说明适应性和积极态度的重要性。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“We view it as something to be ashamed of, or embarrassed about, something to be avoided or hidden. (我们认为这是一种可耻或尴尬的事情，是应该避免或隐藏的事情。)”可知，人们通常认为失败是可耻的。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“She had bipolar disorder and was unable to cope with the pressure of studying. (她患有躁郁症，无法承受学习的压力。)”可知，这个女人停止了大学学位的学习是因为疾病和学习压力。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“I recently saw a woman who had to give up studying for her university degree. (我最近看到一位女性，她不得不放弃攻读大学学位。)”和“However, she failed her exams and job interviews, and overall felt like she was failing to achieve anything. (然而，她考试失利、求职面试屡屡碰壁，总而言之，她觉得自己一事无成。)”和第四段“Fast forward 18 months and she now has her own growing business of teaching singing full-time. (18个月后，她现在有了自己不断壮大的全职教唱歌的事业。)”可知，这个女人的故事体现了“黑暗中总有一线光明”这个谚语，即虽然她经历了很多失败，但最终还是取得了成功。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The secret to flexibility lies in accepting that there are things in life we cannot change. (灵活性的秘诀在于接受生活中有些事情是我们无法改变的。)”可知，我们能从这篇文章中学到的是“以适应性接受不可改变的事物是重要的”。 C When my son was little, he liked to run in our driveway until he fell. He would then turn to me to see if he was hurt. If my face betrayed worry or concern, he would cry. If I stayed calm, he would brush himself off and get back to running. Here was this human being who was counting on me to make sense of the world — not just how to tie his shoes or recite the ABCs, but how to feel. Years later, in middle school, this lesson returned. One night, my son told me about a classmate who had been unkind to him. My first reaction was to rush to fix it — email the parents, call the school, demand action. But instead of reacting, I paused. “That sounds hard. What did you do?” “I decided not to hang out with him for a while,” my son replied. “I am going to try playing soccer at lunch instead.” “That’s a great solution,” I said, and he went back to his homework. These ordinary parenting moments taught me an important truth: sometimes, the best thing a parent can do is doing nothing at all. Over 30 years in schools, too often I’ve watched parents overreacting, robbing their kids of the confidence that comes from struggling, and exhausting themselves in the process. Most Americans now believe that young people will not be better off than their parents. They see greater competition for fewer resources — be it college admissions, jobs, or housing. However, a young person who gets used to having a parent intervene on his behalf begins to believe that he’s not capable of acting on his own, feeling both anxiety and dependence. I want to make a case for the Lighthouse Parent, a term that the educator has used. A lighthouse parent stands as a steady, reliable guide, providing safety and understanding without controlling every aspect of their child’s journey, like a lighthouse that helps sailors avoid crashing into rocks. The key is learning when to step back and enable them to find their own way. 8. What does the author want to tell with the example of his child falling? A. Children should be prevented from taking risks. B. Parents can feel exactly what their children feel. C. Parents’ reaction influences children’s mental state. D. Children would cry regardless of parental guidance. 9. What does the underlined word “intervene” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Step in. B. Move on. C. Speak up. D. Take off. 10. What kind of parent is the author? A. Distant. B. Traditional. C. Supportive. D. Overprotective. 11. What would Lighthouse Parents do when children are anxious about a school presentation? A. Complete the task for the child. B. Contact and criticize the teacher. C. Ask the child to report every step. D. Guide the child while letting them act. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。作者通过自身育儿经历，提出了“灯塔式父母”的教育理念，主张父母应成为可靠的引导者，而非过度干预孩子的成长，以此培养孩子的独立性。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“If my face betrayed worry or concern, he would cry. If I stayed calm, he would brush himself off and get back to running. (如果我的脸上流露出担忧，他就会哭。如果我保持冷静，他就会自己爬起来继续跑)”可知，孩子的反应会随作者的情绪而变化，这说明父母的反应会影响孩子的心理状态。故选C。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段“Over 30 years in schools, too often I’ve watched parents overreacting, robbing their kids of the confidence that comes from struggling, and exhausting themselves in the process. (在教育领域工作了三十多年后，我常常看到家长们反应过度，剥夺了孩子在努力过程中所应获得的自信，还让自己在过程中精疲力竭)”及“However, a young person who gets used to having a parent intervene on his behalf begins to believe that he’s not capable of acting on his own, feeling both anxiety and dependence. (然而，一个习惯了由父母intervene的年轻人会开始认为自己无法独立行动，从而感到焦虑和依赖)”可知，划线词intervene指父母介入、干预孩子的问题。故选A。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“But instead of reacting, I paused. “That sounds hard. What did you do?” (但我没有立刻反应，而是停顿了一下。“这听起来很难。你是怎么做的？”)”可知，作者没有急于干预，而是引导儿子自己解决问题，是一位懂得引导、给予孩子支持的家长。故选C。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“A lighthouse parent stands as a steady, reliable guide, providing safety and understanding without controlling every aspect of their child’s journey, like a lighthouse that helps sailors avoid crashing into rocks. The key is learning when to step back and enable them to find their own way. (灯塔式父母是稳定可靠的引导者，提供安全和理解，而不控制孩子成长的方方面面，就像灯塔帮助航海者避开礁石那样。关键在于学会何时退一步，让孩子们能够自己找到方向)”可知，灯塔式父母会在引导孩子的同时，让孩子自己行动。故选D。 D Just as is often the case, many people are led to believe that there are certain activities they simply cannot accomplish. But a new invention proves that where there is a will, there is a way. Dr. Zacharias Vamvakousis has come up with a creative way to improve the quality of life for countless people through the power of music. His invention is called EyeHarp, which enables individuals to make music using their gaze (注视) instead of their hands. “EyeHarp is the first musical application that allows people with disabilities to play music with eyes or head movements,” Zacharias explains. “Using an eye tracker, you can make melodies by looking at the notes on the screen.” EyeHarp uses the same type of digital eye-tracking technology used in some computer games. But instead of using it to aim weapons at digital opponents, EyeHarp uses it to track your eyes as they stay on different musical notes on a colorful circle on your computer screen. The application allows you to play three to four notes every second. However, users have to be careful not to move their eyes too quickly from one musical note to the next. So, much like any other instrument, playing a tune takes practice and concentration. Zacharias was inspired to create the magical application after a musician friend was badly hurt in a motorcycle accident. His friend was worried he’d never be able to play his guitar again, so Zacharias decided to find a new way to make music available to him. While his friend didn’t end up needing EyeHarp, Zacharias was on a mission to help others who thought music was forever lost to them. These are people who are so disabled that they don’t have the opportunity to do many things and learning music through EyeHarp gives them happiness, the purpose and the opportunity to play music. Zacharias agreed, saying that music builds social connections and raises self-esteem. He’s currently training music teachers to use EyeHarp so they can reach even more people with disabilities. This invention has the potential for changing so many lives. Hundreds of people with disabilities have used EyeHarp. “There wasn’t any instrument they could play. But now, they’re able to make their own music,” says Zacharias. “I hope it will light up the lives of more people like them.” 12. How does EyeHarp work according to the passage? A. By tracking the movement of players’ hands. B. By detecting the sound of a music note. C. By following the stay of the gaze on the screen. D. By recognizing the face of a disabled user. 13. What inspired Zacharias to create the application? A. His love for music and technology. B. A need for a new form of musical therapy. C. A desire to help his musician friend. D. A sympathy towards people with disabilities. 14. What can we infer about EyeHarp from the passage? A. It is very difficult to play. B. It can be used by anyone easily. C. It has limited musical notes. D. It brings hope to many disabled people. 15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. From Guitar to Gaze: A Musician’s Recovery Story. B. EyeHarp: Making Music with a Glance. C. How Eye Trackers Work in Computer Games. D. Training Music Teachers for the Disabled. 【答案】12. C 13. C 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了EyeHarp这一创新发明，它利用眼部追踪技术让残疾人通过眼神或头部动作来演奏音乐，为无数人带来了新的音乐体验和生活质量的提升。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“EyeHarp uses the same type of digital eye-tracking technology used in some computer games. But instead of using it to aim weapons at digital opponents, EyeHarp uses it to track your eyes as they stay on different musical notes on a colorful circle on your computer screen.(EyeHarp使用了一些电脑游戏中使用的数字眼部追踪技术。但是，EyeHarp不是用它来瞄准数字对手，而是用它来追踪你的眼睛，当它们停留在你电脑屏幕上彩色圆圈上的不同音符上时。)”可知，EyeHarp是通过跟踪注视在屏幕上的停留来工作的。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段“Zacharias was inspired to create the magical application after a musician friend was badly hurt in a motorcycle accident. His friend was worried he’d never be able to play his guitar again, so Zacharias decided to find a new way to make music available to him.(在一位音乐家朋友在一次摩托车事故中受重伤后，Zacharias受到了启发，开发了这款神奇的应用程序。他的朋友担心自己再也不能弹吉他了，所以Zacharias决定找到一种新的方式让他能够接触到音乐。)”可知，激发Zacharias开发这个应用程序的是帮助他的音乐家朋友的愿望。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“There wasn’t any instrument they could play. But now, they’re able to make their own music.(以前他们没有任何乐器可以演奏。但现在，他们能够创作自己的音乐了。)”可推测出，EyeHarp给许多残疾人带来了希望。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。文章主要介绍了EyeHarp这一创新发明，它利用眼部追踪技术让残疾人通过眼神或头部动作来演奏音乐，为无数人带来了新的音乐体验和生活质量的提升，所以选项B“EyeHarp：用眼神演奏音乐”最能概括文章主旨，可作为文章标题。 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。 For people who are planning a trip, a visit to a museum might not be the first thing they think of.

I’d had Apple only a couple of weeks, but we’d become nearly inseparable. I opened the car door. Apple jumped in and settled down on the passenger seat. I started the car and set off. It’s always tricky turning around. I live in a remote area up in the hills, surrounded by woods. I have to drive up the mountain to get to my driveway, which is hardly wide enough for one car and ends at a steep valley. I twisted around and backed up slowly. Just then, a flash of sunlight blinded me. I put my hand up to cover my eyes. I felt a shake as the left rear part of the car dropped. Oh, no! The car slipped and rolled. We landed upside down. I felt a sharp pain in my chest and my legs. I couldn’t move. I looked over to find Apple. She was still in the passenger seat and fortunately, she was okay. I grabbed my cell phone and dialed 911. But just as I’d feared, there was no signal at the bottom of this valley. Now what? Robert, my closest neighbor, lived a quarter mile uphill from me and had his own driveway. It was unlikely that he or anyone else would drive up to my house. Apple barked nervously. At least I could get her out of here. There was a hole in the driver’s side rear window. “Come on, Apple,” I said. Painfully, I reached over, picked her up, and gently put her head through the hole. “Go home, baby.” She jumped to the ground and raced up the side of the valley. As the sun set, it turned cold. I trembled with cold and pain. My pulse was weakening. I closed my eyes. Suddenly, I was awakened by loud barks． 注意： （1）续写词数应为150左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题纸相应位置作答。 “Help!” I shouted with all my strength. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Later, Robert told me that when he got home from work, Apple was waiting for him. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version： “Help!” I shouted with all my strength. My voice cracked midway, worn out by pain and cold. The barks grew louder, mingling with a familiar voice calling my name — it was Robert! I strained to tap the car body with my fist, making dull thuds. Soon, his face appeared. He gasped at the upside-down car and rushed down with a rope. He tied the rope around a nearby tree first, then carefully climbed down to check my condition, whispering reassuring words while trying not to move me roughly. Luckily, I was saved and rushed to the nearest hospital. Later, Robert told me that when he got home from work, Apple was waiting for him. The dog kept tugging at his trousers and barking towards the mountain. Sensing something urgent, he followed Apple. The dog ran fast, never slowing down until they reached the valley. As I lay in the hospital, Apple curled up beside my bed, her head resting on my hand. I finally understood: Apple wasn’t just a dog to me. In the quiet, lonely mountains, she was my family, my connection to the world. The bond between us wasn’t just companionship — it was trust, loyalty, and a promise to look out for each other, no matter what happened. 【解析】 【导语】本文以作者与宠物狗Apple为主线展开，讲述作者带Apple驾车去看望姑姑，因山路狭窄、阳光刺眼导致车辆滑落山谷翻车，作者受伤被困、手机无信号，无奈让小狗Apple独自离开求救并最终获救的故事，凸显人与狗狗之间忠诚守护、彼此相依的深厚情谊。 【详解】1. 段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容可知，本段可描写作者奋力呼救，引来邻居前来救援，邻居设法下到谷底救助作者并将其送医。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，本段可描写小狗等候并引导邻居前往事发地救人，后续小狗陪伴住院的作者，彰显人与狗狗之间真挚忠诚的情谊。 2. 续写线索：闻声呼救→邻居现身→谷底施救→送医救治→小狗拦人→引路求救→医院相伴→感悟情谊 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ① 匆忙下来：rush down/climb down quickly/hurry down ② 拉扯裤腿：tug at one’s trousers/pull at one’s pants 情绪类 ① 疲惫虚弱：worn out/weak and tired/tired out ② 宽慰的：reassuring/comforting 【点睛】[高分句型 1] As I lay in the hospital, Apple curled up beside my bed, her head resting on my hand.(运用了as引导的时间状语从句及独立主格结构her head resting on my hand) [高分句型 2] The bond between us wasn’t just companionship — it was trust, loyalty, and a promise to look out for each other, no matter what happened.
