B Federica Brignone tilted her head toward the sky and watched the Italian Air Force’s flying unit leave behind a trail of her country’s colors above the snowy peaks of the Dolomites. Moments later, with Italy’s president watching, she stepped onto the stage and received a gold medal. It was a fairytale ending to her super-G victory at the Milan Cortina Olympics — one she herself could hardly believe. Just ten months earlier, the Italian skier had broken multiple bones in her left leg in a terrible crash. She could not walk for three months and needed two operations. A metal plate and seven or eight screws (螺丝) still hold her leg together. “I didn’t know if I would be able to walk again. Or ever ski again,” she said. “For me, it was just special to be here.” Yet on race day, Brignone delivered a near-perfect run. She finished 0.41 seconds ahead of the silver medalist — a huge gap in Alpine skiing. Many competitors struggled with the difficult course, made even harder by fog and flat light, but the 35-year-old “Tiger,” known for her fighting spirit and the animal design on her helmet (头盔), was unstoppable. This victory gave Brignone the one big prize missing from her long career: an Olympic gold medal. She became the oldest woman to win an Alpine skiing gold at the Olympics. It was her fourth Olympic medal, tying the record for the most by an Italian woman skier. Her journey back was anything but easy. After her crash in April, she did not compete again until late January — just weeks before the Olympics. The team doctor said that for a normal person, recovery would still be going on. “But it’s the champion that makes the difference.” During the opening ceremony, Brignone was still in pain. She asked a teammate to carry her on his shoulders so she could wave the Italian flag. That moment now feels like part of a story too perfect to be true — except that it was. As her friend Lindsey Vonn wrote online, “What an incredible comeback!” 4. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. Brignone’s serious injury. B. The hard Olympic training. C. The doctor’s recovery advice. D. The steps of the operation. 5. What do we know about Brignone’s super-G win? A. She skied in perfect light. B. She won by 0.41 seconds. C. She was the youngest winner. D. She beat all competitors easily. 6. What can be learned about Brignone’s recovery? A. It followed the normal process. B. It was assisted by her teammate. C. It took her less than three months. D. It was faster than a normal person’s. 7. Which word best describes Brignone? A. Generous. B. Modest. C. Determined. D. Humorous. C In January, OpenAI began to introduce a new feature to ChatGPT in certain countries. This feature, called ChatGPT Health, is designed for users to upload their medical data and ask for health advice. However, a new study has found that ChatGPT Health regularly fails to recognize the need for emergency medical care, raising serious safety concerns. The study, which has been published in Nature Medicine, found that in over half of the cases that were real emergencies, ChatGPT underestimated the seriousness and urgency of the situation. The researchers created 60 realistic medical scenarios (场景) that ranged from mild health problems to medical emergencies. They also had doctors look at each scenario and decide what type of medical care was needed in each case. The researchers then asked ChatGPT Health for advice for each of these scenarios. They varied the patients’ personal details and other factors, such as comments from family or friends, each time they asked. Altogether, the researchers received 960 responses. In 52% of cases where people should have been advised to go to the hospital immediately, ChatGPT Health suggested staying at home or making a regular medical appointment. On the other hand, in almost 65% of non-urgent cases, ChatGPT Health advised people to get immediate medical care. ChatGPT Health was also 12 times more likely to take symptoms (症状) less seriously and suggest less urgent care if informed that a friend or family member thought the situation wasn’t serious. Responding to the findings, some health experts have warned that using ChatGPT Health could lead to people not getting the urgent medical care they need, as well as an increase in people asking for unnecessary medical care. The researchers say their results suggest that AI systems such as ChatGPT Health are not adaptable enough to respond to serious medical inquiries, and that humans may still be needed to oversee such important medical decisions. 8. What could users do with ChatGPT Health? A. Upload medical data for health advice. B. Access others’ personal details. C. Get real-time help from human doctors. D. Treat all emergency medical conditions. 9. What did the 960 responses from ChatGPT Health show? A. It ignored mild health problems. B. It followed doctors’ judgment fully. C. It gave correct advice in most cases. D. It often misjudged medical urgency. 10. What can be inferred about ChatGPT Health? A. It can replace human medical supervision. B. It may add pressure to health care systems. C. It is designed only for emergency care cases. D. It collects more medical data than required. 11. What is the main purpose of the text? A. To promote a new AI feature. B. To teach how to use AI medical tools. C. To compare AI’s and doctors’ advice. D. To warn of risks of ChatGPT Health. D Inspired by the thunderous footsteps of the huge dinosaur in Jurassic Park, a German startup called IMENSUS has designed a rover (探测车) that could change the way we explore the Moon. The rover generates seismic (地震的) waves that travel deep into the ground, creating artificial quakes to map what lies beneath. “We’re shaking the ground,” said David Frey, head of engineering. On Earth, this technology helps mining companies locate valuable materials such as copper and gold. Seismic waves slow down when passing through dense, mineral-rich rocks. By measuring wave speeds with surface sensors, prospectors can identify underground resources without digging. But Frey believes the real potential lies beyond our planet. As space agencies set their sights on the Moon, accessing local resources — such as ice at the lunar South Pole and regolith (月壤) for construction — will be essential. “Everyone’s just thinking, ‘Let’s go, dig, and use the material.’ But there might be a huge rock underneath. You want to know this before you go, because it’s super expensive,” Frey explained. Unlike past scientific missions that relied on unpredictable natural moonquakes, this method would let the rover generate controlled seismic events on demand. Lunar seismologist Dr. Nicholas Schmerr from the University of Maryland noted that such seismic sounding can effectively locate structures within the top kilometer of the subsurface, including lava tubes or buried ices. However, Schmerr also warned that extreme temperatures, solar radiation, and sharp, rough regolith on the Moon could easily destroy machinery. While IMENSUS’s Earth-based pilot phase is set to begin in 2027, applying the same technology on the Moon will require careful engineering to ensure survival in such harsh conditions. Still, both experts agree that seismic exploration will be vital for future lunar missions. Whether IMENSUS’s concept reaches the Moon depends on the progress of programs like NASA’s Artemis. But as Frey sees it, the same technology could one day be used on Mars or even asteroids. One thing is certain: if humans are to build a lasting presence beyond Earth, we must first understand what lies beneath the surface. 12. What do surface sensors do in the seismic technology? A. Locate ice at the lunar South Pole. B. Analyze underground resources. C. Measure the speed of seismic waves. D. Dig out mineral-rich rocks directly. 13. How is the new seismic method different from past missions? A. It needs underground sensors. B. It relies on natural seismic activities. C. It produces controlled moonquakes. D. It investigates deep lunar structures. 14. What does the underlined word “harsh” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Severe. B. Calm. C. Mild. D. Normal. 15. What is the text mainly about? A. Seismic waves on the Moon. B. A new way to explore the Moon. C. Challenges of living on the Moon. D. Building an operational lunar base. 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。 Cross-cultural communication can feel challenging at first due to various cultural differences. ____16____ Here are four key strategies for better cross-cultural connection. ●Learn about the culture beforehand to avoid simple mistakes.

Having lost her full-time job, she had to work several part-time jobs to make ends meet. Money was always tight, and she often skipped meals to save for Simon’s school supplies and utility bills. A cold wind blew through the broken kitchen window, but since she couldn’t afford to fix it, Annie had stuffed old towels into the gaps to keep out the cold. Every night, Annie tossed and turned in bed, worrying about putting food on the table for the next day. Simon, who pretended to be asleep, hated seeing his mom bury her face in her hands and cry quietly. One day, Simon overheard his mom talking to a friend about the vegetables she’d been growing. “I planted them to save on groceries,” Annie sighed, wiping sweat from her forehead — she’d just rushed home from her cleaning job. “Now, I’m wondering if I could sell the extras for a little money. But I’m just too worn out to do anything else after work.” The idea stayed with Simon, but soon, a better plan occurred to him. He remembered how his classmate had mentioned that the farm’s fresh produce sold fast. “Mom, I’ve got a better idea,” Simon said after her friend left. “One of my classmates’ families runs an organic farm. After school, I can go there to buy fresh vegetables and sell them at the street corner. Could I use our emergency savings to buy supplies? The produce is organic, and people around here care about that. I promise it won’t get in the way of my studies.” “Are you sure, Simon? It might take up all your free time, and you’ll miss out on hanging out with your friends.” “I’m sure, Mom. I don’t mind at all. What matters is that you don’t have to work so hard. You come home so tired every day that you can barely speak,” Simon said firmly. Reluctantly, his mother agreed and gave him the small amount of money for the purchase. 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。 The next afternoon, Simon rode his bike to the farm. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The steady income began to ease the family’s burden (负担). ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $ 高二英语 考生注意: 1.本试卷分选择题和非选择题两部分。满分150分,考试时间120分钟。 2.答题前,考生务必用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔将密封线内项目填写清楚。 3.考生作答时,请将答案答在答题卡上。选择题每小题选出答案后,用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑;非选择题请用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔在答题卡上各题的答题区域内作答,超出答题区域书写的答案无效,在试题卷、草稿纸上作答无效。 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.

Moments later, with Italy’s president watching, she stepped onto the stage and received a gold medal. It was a fairytale ending to her super-G victory at the Milan Cortina Olympics — one she herself could hardly believe. Just ten months earlier, the Italian skier had broken multiple bones in her left leg in a terrible crash. She could not walk for three months and needed two operations. A metal plate and seven or eight screws (螺丝) still hold her leg together. “I didn’t know if I would be able to walk again. Or ever ski again,” she said. “For me, it was just special to be here.” Yet on race day, Brignone delivered a near-perfect run. She finished 0.41 seconds ahead of the silver medalist — a huge gap in Alpine skiing. Many competitors struggled with the difficult course, made even harder by fog and flat light, but the 35-year-old “Tiger,” known for her fighting spirit and the animal design on her helmet (头盔), was unstoppable. This victory gave Brignone the one big prize missing from her long career: an Olympic gold medal. She became the oldest woman to win an Alpine skiing gold at the Olympics. It was her fourth Olympic medal, tying the record for the most by an Italian woman skier. Her journey back was anything but easy. After her crash in April, she did not compete again until late January — just weeks before the Olympics. The team doctor said that for a normal person, recovery would still be going on. “But it’s the champion that makes the difference.” During the opening ceremony, Brignone was still in pain. She asked a teammate to carry her on his shoulders so she could wave the Italian flag. That moment now feels like part of a story too perfect to be true — except that it was. As her friend Lindsey Vonn wrote online, “What an incredible comeback!” 4. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. Brignone’s serious injury. B. The hard Olympic training. C. The doctor’s recovery advice. D. The steps of the operation. 5. What do we know about Brignone’s super-G win? A. She skied in perfect light. B. She won by 0.41 seconds. C. She was the youngest winner. D. She beat all competitors easily. 6. What can be learned about Brignone’s recovery? A. It followed the normal process. B. It was assisted by her teammate. C. It took her less than three months. D. It was faster than a normal person’s. 7. Which word best describes Brignone? A. Generous. B. Modest. C. Determined. D. Humorous. 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】主要讲述意大利滑雪运动员费代丽卡·布里尼奥内在经历左腿严重骨折的重创后,仅用十个月就实现惊人复出,在米兰科尔蒂纳奥运会超级大回转比赛中勇夺金牌,书写了属于自己的辉煌篇章。 【4题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Just ten months earlier, the Italian skier had broken multiple bones in her left leg in a terrible crash. She could not walk for three months and needed two operations. A metal plate and seven or eight screws (螺丝) still hold her leg together. “I didn’t know if I would be able to walk again. Or ever ski again,” she said. “For me, it was just special to be here.”(就在十个月前,这位意大利滑雪运动员在一次严重的碰撞中左腿多处骨折。她三个月不能行走,还需要进行两次手术。一块金属板和七八颗螺丝仍将她的腿固定在一起。“我不知道自己是否还能再次行走。或者再次滑雪,”她说。“对我来说,能站在这里就已经很特别了。”)可知,主要围绕布里尼奥内所遭受的严重伤势展开叙述,包括骨折情况、不能行走的时间、手术次数以及腿部固定情况等。所以该段主要谈论的是布里尼奥内的严重受伤。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“She finished 0.41 seconds ahead of the silver medalist — a huge gap in Alpine skiing.(她以领先银牌得主0.41秒的成绩完赛——在高山滑雪比赛中这是一个巨大的差距)”可知,关于布里尼奥内超级大回转比赛的胜利,她以0.41秒的优势获胜。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“After her crash in April, she did not compete again until late January — just weeks before the Olympics. The team doctor said that for a normal person, recovery would still be going on.(四月受伤后,她直到一月底才再次参赛——就在奥运会前几周。队医表示,对于一个正常人来说,那时仍处于恢复期)”可推断出,布里尼奥内的恢复速度比正常人快。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“I didn’t know if I would be able to walk again. Or ever ski again(我不知道自己是否还能再次行走,或者再次滑雪)”以及第三段 “Yet on race day, Brignone delivered a near-perfect run.(然而在比赛当天,布里尼奥内完成了近乎完美的滑行)和第五段“After her crash in April, she did not compete again until late January — just weeks before the Olympics. The team doctor said that for a normal person, recovery would still be going on.(四月受伤后,她直到一月底才再次参赛——就在奥运会前几周。队医表示,对于一个正常人来说,那时仍处于恢复期)”可知,布里尼奥内尽管面临着对能否重新行走和滑雪的未知,受伤后仍能在短时间内恢复并在比赛中有出色表现,体现出她面对困难时坚定的决心,没有轻易放弃。 C In January, OpenAI began to introduce a new feature to ChatGPT in certain countries. This feature, called ChatGPT Health, is designed for users to upload their medical data and ask for health advice. However, a new study has found that ChatGPT Health regularly fails to recognize the need for emergency medical care, raising serious safety concerns. The study, which has been published in Nature Medicine, found that in over half of the cases that were real emergencies, ChatGPT underestimated the seriousness and urgency of the situation. The researchers created 60 realistic medical scenarios (场景) that ranged from mild health problems to medical emergencies. They also had doctors look at each scenario and decide what type of medical care was needed in each case. The researchers then asked ChatGPT Health for advice for each of these scenarios. They varied the patients’ personal details and other factors, such as comments from family or friends, each time they asked. Altogether, the researchers received 960 responses. In 52% of cases where people should have been advised to go to the hospital immediately, ChatGPT Health suggested staying at home or making a regular medical appointment. On the other hand, in almost 65% of non-urgent cases, ChatGPT Health advised people to get immediate medical care. ChatGPT Health was also 12 times more likely to take symptoms (症状) less seriously and suggest less urgent care if informed that a friend or family member thought the situation wasn’t serious. Responding to the findings, some health experts have warned that using ChatGPT Health could lead to people not getting the urgent medical care they need, as well as an increase in people asking for unnecessary medical care. The researchers say their results suggest that AI systems such as ChatGPT Health are not adaptable enough to respond to serious medical inquiries, and that humans may still be needed to oversee such important medical decisions. 8. What could users do with ChatGPT Health? A. Upload medical data for health advice. B. Access others’ personal details. C. Get real-time help from human doctors. D. Treat all emergency medical conditions. 9. What did the 960 responses from ChatGPT Health show? A. It ignored mild health problems. B. It followed doctors’ judgment fully. C. It gave correct advice in most cases. D. It often misjudged medical urgency. 10. What can be inferred about ChatGPT Health? A. It can replace human medical supervision. B. It may add pressure to health care systems. C. It is designed only for emergency care cases. D. It collects more medical data than required. 11. What is the main purpose of the text? A. To promote a new AI feature. B. To teach how to use AI medical tools. C. To compare AI’s and doctors’ advice. D. To warn of risks of ChatGPT Health. 【答案】8. A 9. D 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】主要说明了ChatGPT Health可让用户上传医疗数据获取健康建议,但研究发现它常误判病情紧急度,易造成就医延误或多余就诊,存在明显医疗安全隐患。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“This feature, called ChatGPT Health, is designed for users to upload their medical data and ask for health advice.(这一功能被称为“ChatGPT 健康”,旨在让用户上传其医疗数据并寻求健康方面的建议)”可知,用户能通过ChatGPT健康服务上传医疗数据以获取健康建议。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“In 52% of cases where people should have been advised to go to the hospital immediately, ChatGPT Health suggested staying at home or making a regular medical appointment.

This feature, called ChatGPT Health, is designed for users to upload their medical data and ask for health advice.(今年1月,OpenAI 开始在某些国家向 ChatGPT 推出一项新功能。这一功能被称为“ChatGPT 健康”,旨在让用户上传其医疗数据并寻求健康方面的建议)”结合文章主要说明了ChatGPT Health可让用户上传医疗数据获取健康建议,但研究发现它常误判病情紧急度,易造成就医延误或多余就诊,存在明显医疗安全隐患。可知,这篇文章的主要目的是提醒大家关于ChatGPT健康问题的潜在风险。 D Inspired by the thunderous footsteps of the huge dinosaur in Jurassic Park, a German startup called IMENSUS has designed a rover (探测车) that could change the way we explore the Moon. The rover generates seismic (地震的) waves that travel deep into the ground, creating artificial quakes to map what lies beneath. “We’re shaking the ground,” said David Frey, head of engineering. On Earth, this technology helps mining companies locate valuable materials such as copper and gold. Seismic waves slow down when passing through dense, mineral-rich rocks. By measuring wave speeds with surface sensors, prospectors can identify underground resources without digging. But Frey believes the real potential lies beyond our planet. As space agencies set their sights on the Moon, accessing local resources — such as ice at the lunar South Pole and regolith (月壤) for construction — will be essential. “Everyone’s just thinking, ‘Let’s go, dig, and use the material.’ But there might be a huge rock underneath. You want to know this before you go, because it’s super expensive,” Frey explained. Unlike past scientific missions that relied on unpredictable natural moonquakes, this method would let the rover generate controlled seismic events on demand. Lunar seismologist Dr. Nicholas Schmerr from the University of Maryland noted that such seismic sounding can effectively locate structures within the top kilometer of the subsurface, including lava tubes or buried ices. However, Schmerr also warned that extreme temperatures, solar radiation, and sharp, rough regolith on the Moon could easily destroy machinery. While IMENSUS’s Earth-based pilot phase is set to begin in 2027, applying the same technology on the Moon will require careful engineering to ensure survival in such harsh conditions. Still, both experts agree that seismic exploration will be vital for future lunar missions. Whether IMENSUS’s concept reaches the Moon depends on the progress of programs like NASA’s Artemis. But as Frey sees it, the same technology could one day be used on Mars or even asteroids. One thing is certain: if humans are to build a lasting presence beyond Earth, we must first understand what lies beneath the surface. 12. What do surface sensors do in the seismic technology? A. Locate ice at the lunar South Pole. B. Analyze underground resources. C. Measure the speed of seismic waves. D. Dig out mineral-rich rocks directly. 13. How is the new seismic method different from past missions? A. It needs underground sensors. B. It relies on natural seismic activities. C. It produces controlled moonquakes. D. It investigates deep lunar structures. 14. What does the underlined word “harsh” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Severe. B. Calm. C. Mild. D. Normal. 15. What is the text mainly about? A. Seismic waves on the Moon. B. A new way to explore the Moon. C. Challenges of living on the Moon. D. Building an operational lunar base. 【答案】12. C 13. C 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍受《侏罗纪公园》中恐龙脚步声启发,德国初创公司IMENSUS设计出一种探测车,它能通过产生地震波探索月球,这种技术在地球可辅助寻找资源,在月球探索中有独特优势,但面临月球恶劣环境的挑战,有望为未来月球任务带来新方式。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“By measuring wave speeds with surface sensors, prospectors can identify underground resources without digging. (通过使用地表传感器测量波速,勘探人员无需挖掘就能识别地下资源。)”可知,地表传感器在地震技术中的作用是测量地震波的速度,从而帮助识别地下资源。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Unlike past scientific missions that relied on unpredictable natural moonquakes, this method would let the rover generate controlled seismic events on demand. (与过去依赖不可预测的自然月震的科学任务不同,这种方法将使探测车能够按需产生可控的地震事件。)”可知,新的地震方法与过去任务的区别在于它能产生可控的月震。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。结合第四段“However, Schmerr also warned that extreme temperatures, solar radiation, and sharp, rough regolith on the Moon could easily destroy machinery. (然而,施默尔也警告称,极端的温度、太阳辐射以及月球上尖锐且粗糙的风化层很容易损坏机械设备。)”可知,这样的环境对机器来说是“恶劣的,严峻的”,“harsh”与A选项“Severe”意思相符。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Inspired by the thunderous footsteps of the huge dinosaur in Jurassic Park, a German startup called IMENSUS has designed a rover (探测车) that could change the way we explore the Moon.

Having lost her full-time job, she had to work several part-time jobs to make ends meet. Money was always tight, and she often skipped meals to save for Simon’s school supplies and utility bills. A cold wind blew through the broken kitchen window, but since she couldn’t afford to fix it, Annie had stuffed old towels into the gaps to keep out the cold. Every night, Annie tossed and turned in bed, worrying about putting food on the table for the next day. Simon, who pretended to be asleep, hated seeing his mom bury her face in her hands and cry quietly. One day, Simon overheard his mom talking to a friend about the vegetables she’d been growing. “I planted them to save on groceries,” Annie sighed, wiping sweat from her forehead — she’d just rushed home from her cleaning job. “Now, I’m wondering if I could sell the extras for a little money. But I’m just too worn out to do anything else after work.” The idea stayed with Simon, but soon, a better plan occurred to him. He remembered how his classmate had mentioned that the farm’s fresh produce sold fast. “Mom, I’ve got a better idea,” Simon said after her friend left. “One of my classmates’ families runs an organic farm. After school, I can go there to buy fresh vegetables and sell them at the street corner. Could I use our emergency savings to buy supplies? The produce is organic, and people around here care about that. I promise it won’t get in the way of my studies.” “Are you sure, Simon? It might take up all your free time, and you’ll miss out on hanging out with your friends.” “I’m sure, Mom. I don’t mind at all. What matters is that you don’t have to work so hard. You come home so tired every day that you can barely speak,” Simon said firmly. Reluctantly, his mother agreed and gave him the small amount of money for the purchase. 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。 The next afternoon, Simon rode his bike to the farm. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The steady income began to ease the family’s burden (负担). ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 The next afternoon, Simon rode his bike to the farm. Bathed in soft sunshine, he carefully selected fresh and lush organic vegetables of various kinds. Moved by his filial piety and firm determination, the farm owner gave him a generous discount. After neatly packing all the produce, Simon hurried to the bustling street corner. With sincere smiles and great patience, he recommended his fresh, pesticide-free vegetables to passers-by. Before long, all vegetables were sold out, bringing him his first hard-earned profit. The steady income began to ease the family’s burden. Annie gradually cut down exhausting extra part-time jobs and no longer skipped meals to make ends meet. She managed to repair the broken kitchen window and had enough time to rest and relax. Witnessing his worn-out mother regain energy and wear warm smiles every day, Simon was overwhelmed with pride. Though life used to be harsh and tough, their joint efforts warmed their life and ushered in bright and promising days. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,主要讲述了单亲妈妈Annie生活困窘,为维持生计辛苦工作,儿子Simon心疼妈妈,想出卖有机蔬菜赚钱减轻妈妈负担的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写: ①由第一段首句内容可知,第一段可描写Simon前往农场采购蔬菜、得到农场主优待,在街边摆摊并成功卖出蔬菜、赚取收入的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容可知,第二段可描写稳定收入改善家庭困境,母亲不再劳累、生活好转,Simon倍感自豪,母子携手迎来美好生活。 2.续写线索:前往农场——采购蔬菜——街边摆摊——成功盈利——缓解家境——生活回暖、收获温暖与希望 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①仔细挑选:carefully select/choose with care/pick out carefully ②给予某人折扣:give sb. a discount/offer sb. a reduction/grant sb. a price cut ③匆忙赶往:hurry to/rush to/make haste to 情绪类 ①疲惫的:worn-out/exhausted/tired out ②有希望:promising/hopeful 【点睛】【高分句型1】Before long, all vegetables were sold out, bringing him his first hard-earned profit.(运用了现在分词作状语) 【高分句型2】Though life used to be harsh and tough, their joint efforts warmed their life and ushered in bright and promising days.(运用了though引导的让步状语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $
