Roosevelt Fireplace Cabins B Artist Craig Greco was watching Super Bowl nervously. But while most people focused on the football, Greco’s eyes were fixed on the kicker’s shoes. After all, they had a custom design he had created for the big game. Painted in layers of bright gold and red, the shoes showed Greco’s skill in color composition — made even more amazing by the fact that the artist is color blind. Greco doesn’t let his color blindness limit his creativity, however. Instead, he bravely challenges himself to create one-of-a-kind artworks that bring joy to everyday objects. Greco’s path to becoming an artist is unusual. Though interested in art as a kid, he couldn’t see colors the way others could. He had a form of color blindness where reds and greens look like shades of brown and yellow. As he grew older, he put aside his artistic dream, yet something was always missing. It was an unfulfilling job and an inspiring e-mail that reignited his creativity. Through a work email, he learned about a 3D chalk artist whose detailed drawings pushed him to start his own art journey. With new purpose, he taught himself art basics. He studied drawings, took online classes, and asked famous artists for advice. He also learned to match colors using formulas to make sure the color was always right, even if he couldn’t see it. Within six months, he was creating his own artworks and receiving commissions. As his skills grew, so did his confidence. A lifelong Chiefs fan, he decided to contact players on social media, asking if he could paint their game-day shoes. Kicker Harrison Butker was the first to accept his offer. Because NFL players can be fined for wearing the wrong color, Greco had to do complex color matching to make sure the shoes were exactly the right shades. His attention to detail paid off, and soon other players joined Team Greco. Greco believes artists can bring out passion through painting. “It’s an opportunity to bring happiness and life to an otherwise boring object,” he said. While still creating custom shoes for players, Greco continues to expand his range, painting unique artworks on everything from roller skates to table tops. His advice to young artists: “See what you like, and when you find your passion, dive into it headfirst and don’t look back.” 4. Why did Craig Greco watch the Super Bowl so closely? A. To check the color of his shoes. B. To see his artwork on TV. C. To support his favorite team. D. To learn from professional players. 5. What does the author mean by saying Greco’s path was “unusual” in paragraph 3? A. He started his art career very late in life. B. He succeeded despite a visual disability. C. He never received any formal art training. D. He only painted on unconventional objects. 6. What can we infer about Greco from the way he learned to paint? A. He valued practice over theory. B. He preferred working alone. C. He found creative ways to overcome limits. D. He relied on talent more than effort. 7. What does Greco suggest young artists do in the last paragraph? A. Paint on a wide variety of objects. B. Find their passion and pursue it fully. C. Learn from successful football players. D. Focus on bringing joy to everyday items. C Scientists have known that sperm whales communicate through patterns of clicks known as codas. These sounds are not random. Instead, they form complex sequences that whales use when interacting with members of their family groups. Yet the real meaning of these signals has long remained a mystery. Hidden within the ocean’s depths is a communication system far more complicated than researchers once imagined. Many experts believe that such a system may even include something similar to a basic language, but no one has been able to fully figure it out so far. To solve this long-standing puzzle, scientists have turned to AI for help. By feeding thousands of whale recordings into advanced computer models, scientists have begun to detect patterns that human ears alone could never recognize. Similar to the way large language models learn patterns in human speech, AI systems can analyze enormous collections of whale codas and identify repeating structures within them. In early experiments, these systems were able to predict the type of coda and even identify which whale produced it with remarkable accuracy. Inspired by these results, researchers launched Project CETI （Cetacean Translation Initiative）, an international collaboration bringing together marine biologists, linguists, engineers and computer scientists to interpret the communication system of sperm whales. By combining underwater recording devices with powerful AI models, the team hopes to map the hidden structure of whale sounds and eventually understand how whales exchange information. If successful, the project could transform how humans understand animal intelligence. Not only might it reveal that whales possess a complicated communication system, but it could also show that language-like structures exist far beyond the human world. In this sense, AI may become more than a technological tool. Properly used, it could help humans listen, perhaps for the first time, to the voices of another species. 8. What can we learn about sperm whales’ codas from paragraph 1? A. They can only be heard in the deep ocean. B. They are simple signals for daily communication. C. They carry meanings that are waiting to be explained. D. They differ greatly from other sea animals’ sound patterns. 9. What does paragraph 2 mainly focus on? A. The importance of large language models. B. The process of collecting whale recordings. C. The role AI plays in studying whale codas. D. The achievements in whale protection research. 10. What does the author say about Project CETI? A. It has solved the mystery of animal intelligence. B. It aims to make whale research a separate discipline. C. It helps develop advanced underwater recording devices. D. It may improve human understanding of animal language. 11. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. AI: A Bridge to Sperm Whales’ Hidden Communication. B. Sperm Whales: Creatures with Special Languages. C. New Discoveries in Ocean Ecosystem Protection. D. International Efforts to Study Ocean Animals. D The next time you find yourself in a car, driving along a winding road, why not turn on a cheerful song? It might help you recover from car sickness. A team of researchers led by neuroscientist Yilun Li at China’s Henan Institute of Science and Technology has found music may be a surprisingly effective way to reduce travel-related discomfort and dizziness. In the experiments, 30 volunteers used a machine that imitated (模仿) car driving, in which they were made to feel carsick while wearing an electroencephalograph (EEG) cap. This allowed researchers to “read” the volunteers’ brain activity in real time, as it changed from a stable state to one of carsickness, and gradually back again. Volunteers were divided into six groups. Four groups listened to a minute of music after the sick-making drive; one group listened to no music after the drive, and instead spend one minute meditating (冥想), that is, staying calm and focusing on their breathing; and one ended the drive right before volunteers were expected to feel discomfort. The researchers found that joyful music reduced symptoms of carsickness by 14% compared to the group that meditated. Soft music was the next best type. It reduced symptoms by 13.4% compared to the meditation controls. It’s difficult to evaluate how significant these changes are, as the current experiments were grounded in a small group of people with limited statistical power. Even so, the results have found music can be powerful — changing the way we feel, for better or worse. Previous studies have also shown that a favorite music can reduce symptoms of visually caused carsickness or “cybersickness” from virtual reality devices. But while some research suggests that sad music can improve mood and make us feel good, it’s possible that in some situations, it can have the opposite effect. Sad music may worsen discomfort through emotional connection, the authors suggest. In contrast, cheerful or relaxing music may help volunteers maintain a good physical state, thus improving their comfort. 12. What is the author’s purpose in writing the first paragraph? A. To give practical advice to drivers. B. To introduce a research discovery. C. To explain a new scientific theory. D. To question an old common belief. 13. How did the researchers measure the volunteers’ brain activity? A. By testing in a moving car. B. By playing different songs. C. By observing their behavior. D. By using a special device. 14. What is one disadvantage of the experiments? A. Random volunteer subjects. B. Limited music types. C. Short experiment time. D. Small sample size. 15. What is implied about music’s effect on motion sickness? A. Its effect relies on personal taste in music. B. Its emotional types define its final effect. C. It may produce unintended negative results. D. It primarily addresses physical symptoms. 第二节 七选五(共5小题;每小题25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。 How to Create Good Study Habits for Exams With good study habits, you can reduce your stress and face exams with confidence.

Her parents ran a local bakery that had been in the family for decades, but lately, business was declining. Supermarkets with cheaper bread and pastries drew most customers away, and Mia often saw her parents sighing over empty cash registers at night. One Saturday morning, Mia was helping arrange bread on the shelf when an elderly man named Mr. Henderson entered. He was a regular, but his steps looked unsteady. “Just a loaf of your mother’s wheat bread, dear,” he said, his voice weak. Mia handed it to him, and when he fumbled with his wallet, she noticed his hands shaking. “Take it on the house, Mr. Henderson,” she said softly. The old man smiled gratefully, mentioning that many seniors in town struggled to afford fresh food since the community food bank closed last month. Mia’s heart sank. That afternoon, she sat in the bakery’s backyard, thinking hard. The bakery was struggling, but the seniors’ problem weighed on her. She remembered her grandma used to say, “Small kindnesses tie a town together.” Suddenly, an idea popped into her head. She rushed inside to tell her parents, but they looked hesitant — they could barely keep the bakery going, let alone take on more. Undeterred, Mia decided to try anyway. She made a poster and hung it outside the bakery: “Free bread for seniors every Friday — donations welcome.” The next morning, she waited anxiously by the door. Just as she started to doubt herself, a car pulled up, and a woman she didn’t know rolled down the window... 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Mia walked over to the car, wondering what the woman wanted. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weeks later, the bakery and the town seemed to have changed. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 云南省玉溪第一中学2025-2026学年高一下学期期中考试英语试题 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.

Through a work email, he learned about a 3D chalk artist whose detailed drawings pushed him to start his own art journey. With new purpose, he taught himself art basics. He studied drawings, took online classes, and asked famous artists for advice. He also learned to match colors using formulas to make sure the color was always right, even if he couldn’t see it. Within six months, he was creating his own artworks and receiving commissions. As his skills grew, so did his confidence. A lifelong Chiefs fan, he decided to contact players on social media, asking if he could paint their game-day shoes. Kicker Harrison Butker was the first to accept his offer. Because NFL players can be fined for wearing the wrong color, Greco had to do complex color matching to make sure the shoes were exactly the right shades. His attention to detail paid off, and soon other players joined Team Greco. Greco believes artists can bring out passion through painting. “It’s an opportunity to bring happiness and life to an otherwise boring object,” he said. While still creating custom shoes for players, Greco continues to expand his range, painting unique artworks on everything from roller skates to table tops. His advice to young artists: “See what you like, and when you find your passion, dive into it headfirst and don’t look back.” 4. Why did Craig Greco watch the Super Bowl so closely? A. To check the color of his shoes. B. To see his artwork on TV. C. To support his favorite team. D. To learn from professional players. 5. What does the author mean by saying Greco’s path was “unusual” in paragraph 3? A. He started his art career very late in life. B. He succeeded despite a visual disability. C. He never received any formal art training. D. He only painted on unconventional objects. 6. What can we infer about Greco from the way he learned to paint? A. He valued practice over theory. B. He preferred working alone. C. He found creative ways to overcome limits. D. He relied on talent more than effort. 7. What does Greco suggest young artists do in the last paragraph? A. Paint on a wide variety of objects. B. Find their passion and pursue it fully. C. Learn from successful football players. D. Focus on bringing joy to everyday items. 【答案】4. B 5. B 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一位色盲艺术家Craig Greco克服自身缺陷，通过自学和不懈努力，最终为NFL球员绘制球鞋并实现艺术梦想的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“But while most people focused on the football, Greco’s eyes were fixed on the kicker’s shoes. After all, they had a custom design he had created for the big game.(不过，当大多数人的目光都聚焦在橄榄球上时，格雷科的眼睛却紧紧盯着踢球者的球鞋。毕竟，那双球鞋上有着他专为这场大赛设计的定制图案。)”可知，Greco紧盯球鞋是因为上面的图案是他设计的，即他关注超级碗是为了在电视上看到自己的作品。故选B。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Though interested in art as a kid, he couldn’t see colors the way others could. He had a form of color blindness where reds and greens look like shades of brown and yellow.(尽管他从小就对艺术感兴趣，但却无法像其他人一样分辨色彩。他患有一种色盲症，红色和绿色在他眼中都呈现为棕色和黄色的不同深浅。)”以及后文他最终成为艺术家的经历可知，作者说Greco的道路“unusual”是指他尽管有色盲这一视觉障碍，却依然成为了艺术家。选项B“He succeeded despite a visual disability.(他尽管有视觉障碍却取得了成功。)”准确概括了这层含义。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“He studied drawings, took online classes, and asked famous artists for advice. He also learned to match colors using formulas to make sure the color was always right, even if he couldn’t see it.(他研习画作，参加线上课程，并向知名艺术家请教。他还学会了运用公式来调配颜色，以确保即便自己无法亲眼看到，颜色也总是准确无误。)”可知，Greco面对色盲的局限，积极寻找各种方法解决问题：研究画作、上网课、请教名家、用公式配颜色。这些都体现了他找到了突破限制的创新方法。故选C。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段Greco对年轻艺术家的建议“See what you like, and when you find your passion, dive into it headfirst and don’t look back.(看看自己喜欢什么，一旦找到了热爱之事，就全身心投入其中，勇往直前，永不回头。)”可知，他建议年轻人找到自己热爱的事物，然后全力以赴地去追求。故选B。 C Scientists have known that sperm whales communicate through patterns of clicks known as codas. These sounds are not random. Instead, they form complex sequences that whales use when interacting with members of their family groups. Yet the real meaning of these signals has long remained a mystery. Hidden within the ocean’s depths is a communication system far more complicated than researchers once imagined. Many experts believe that such a system may even include something similar to a basic language, but no one has been able to fully figure it out so far. To solve this long-standing puzzle, scientists have turned to AI for help. By feeding thousands of whale recordings into advanced computer models, scientists have begun to detect patterns that human ears alone could never recognize. Similar to the way large language models learn patterns in human speech, AI systems can analyze enormous collections of whale codas and identify repeating structures within them. In early experiments, these systems were able to predict the type of coda and even identify which whale produced it with remarkable accuracy. Inspired by these results, researchers launched Project CETI （Cetacean Translation Initiative）, an international collaboration bringing together marine biologists, linguists, engineers and computer scientists to interpret the communication system of sperm whales. By combining underwater recording devices with powerful AI models, the team hopes to map the hidden structure of whale sounds and eventually understand how whales exchange information. If successful, the project could transform how humans understand animal intelligence. Not only might it reveal that whales possess a complicated communication system, but it could also show that language-like structures exist far beyond the human world. In this sense, AI may become more than a technological tool. Properly used, it could help humans listen, perhaps for the first time, to the voices of another species. 8. What can we learn about sperm whales’ codas from paragraph 1? A. They can only be heard in the deep ocean. B. They are simple signals for daily communication. C. They carry meanings that are waiting to be explained. D. They differ greatly from other sea animals’ sound patterns. 9. What does paragraph 2 mainly focus on? A. The importance of large language models. B. The process of collecting whale recordings. C. The role AI plays in studying whale codas. D. The achievements in whale protection research. 10. What does the author say about Project CETI? A. It has solved the mystery of animal intelligence. B. It aims to make whale research a separate discipline. C. It helps develop advanced underwater recording devices. D. It may improve human understanding of animal language. 11. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. AI: A Bridge to Sperm Whales’ Hidden Communication. B. Sperm Whales: Creatures with Special Languages. C. New Discoveries in Ocean Ecosystem Protection. D. International Efforts to Study Ocean Animals. 【答案】8. C 9. C 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了研究人员借助人工智能分析鲸类声音，并启动 CETI 项目，试图破解抹香鲸的交流系统，这一研究可能加深人类对动物语言与智力的理解。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Yet the real meaning of these signals has long remained a mystery.(然而这些信号的真正含义长期以来一直是个谜)”可知，抹香鲸的尾音承载着有待解读的含义。故选C。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“To solve this long-standing puzzle, scientists have turned to AI for help.(为了解开这个长期存在的谜题，科学家们向人工智能寻求帮助)”以及后文对人工智能分析鲸音的介绍可知，本段主要介绍人工智能在研究抹香鲸尾音中所起的作用。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“If successful, the project could transform how humans understand animal intelligence. Not only might it reveal that whales possess a complicated communication system, but it could also show that language-like structures exist beyond human beings.(如果项目成功，它将改变人类对动物智力的理解。它不仅可能揭示鲸鱼拥有复杂的交流系统，还能表明类似语言的结构并非人类独有)”可知，作者认为CETI项目可能提升人类对动物语言的理解。故选D。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，根据第二段“By feeding thousands of whale recordings into advanced computer models, scientists have begun to detect patterns that human ears alone could never recognize. Similar to the way large language models learn patterns in human speech, AI systems can analyze enormous collections of whale codas and identify repeating structures within them. In early experiments, these systems were able to predict the type of coda and even identify which whale produced it with remarkable accuracy.(通过将数千条鲸鱼的记录输入先进的计算机模型，科学家们已经开始检测出仅凭人类耳朵永远无法识别的模式。与大型语言模型学习人类语音模式的方式类似，人工智能系统可以分析大量的鲸鱼尾音，并识别其中的重复结构。在早期的实验中，这些系统能够预测尾音的类型，甚至能够以惊人的准确性识别哪只鲸鱼产生了尾音。)”可知，本文围绕借助人工智能破解抹香鲸的交流之谜展开，A项“人工智能：通往抹香鲸隐秘交流的桥梁”最能概括文章主旨，适合用作标题。故选A。 D The next time you find yourself in a car, driving along a winding road, why not turn on a cheerful song? It might help you recover from car sickness. A team of researchers led by neuroscientist Yilun Li at China’s Henan Institute of Science and Technology has found music may be a surprisingly effective way to reduce travel-related discomfort and dizziness. In the experiments, 30 volunteers used a machine that imitated (模仿) car driving, in which they were made to feel carsick while wearing an electroencephalograph (EEG) cap. This allowed researchers to “read” the volunteers’ brain activity in real time, as it changed from a stable state to one of carsickness, and gradually back again. Volunteers were divided into six groups. Four groups listened to a minute of music after the sick-making drive; one group listened to no music after the drive, and instead spend one minute meditating (冥想), that is, staying calm and focusing on their breathing; and one ended the drive right before volunteers were expected to feel discomfort. The researchers found that joyful music reduced symptoms of carsickness by 14% compared to the group that meditated. Soft music was the next best type. It reduced symptoms by 13.4% compared to the meditation controls. It’s difficult to evaluate how significant these changes are, as the current experiments were grounded in a small group of people with limited statistical power. Even so, the results have found music can be powerful — changing the way we feel, for better or worse. Previous studies have also shown that a favorite music can reduce symptoms of visually caused carsickness or “cybersickness” from virtual reality devices. But while some research suggests that sad music can improve mood and make us feel good, it’s possible that in some situations, it can have the opposite effect. Sad music may worsen discomfort through emotional connection, the authors suggest. In contrast, cheerful or relaxing music may help volunteers maintain a good physical state, thus improving their comfort. 12. What is the author’s purpose in writing the first paragraph? A. To give practical advice to drivers. B. To introduce a research discovery. C. To explain a new scientific theory. D. To question an old common belief. 13. How did the researchers measure the volunteers’ brain activity? A. By testing in a moving car. B. By playing different songs. C. By observing their behavior. D. By using a special device. 14. What is one disadvantage of the experiments? A. Random volunteer subjects. B. Limited music types. C. Short experiment time. D. Small sample size. 15. What is implied about music’s effect on motion sickness? A. Its effect relies on personal taste in music. B. Its emotional types define its final effect. C. It may produce unintended negative results. D. It primarily addresses physical symptoms. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项研究发现，听欢快的音乐可以有效减轻晕车症状，并探讨了不同类型音乐可能产生的不同影响。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“The next time you find yourself in a car, driving along a winding road, why not turn on a cheerful song? It might help you recover from car sickness. A team of researchers led by neuroscientist Yilun Li at China’s Henan Institute of Science and Technology has found music may be a surprisingly effective way to reduce travel-related discomfort and dizziness. (下次当你发现自己坐在车里，沿着蜿蜒的道路行驶时，为什么不打开一首欢快的歌曲呢？它可能会帮助你从晕车中恢复过来。由中国河南科技学院神经科学家李亦伦领导的研究团队发现，音乐可能是一种出奇有效的方法，可以减少与旅行相关的不适和头晕)”可知，作者先以给司机提建议的方式引入，实则是为了介绍一项关于音乐缓解晕车的研究发现。故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“In the experiments, 30 volunteers used a machine that imitated (模仿) car driving, in which they were made to feel carsick while wearing an electroencephalograph (EEG) cap. This allowed researchers to “read” the volunteers’ brain activity in real time (在实验中，30名志愿者使用了一台模拟汽车驾驶的机器，在佩戴脑电图帽的情况下被诱导产生晕车感。这使研究人员能够实时“读取”志愿者的脑部活动)”可知，研究人员通过使用脑电图帽这一特殊设备来测量志愿者的脑部活动。故选D项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“It’s difficult to evaluate how significant these changes are, as the current experiments were grounded in a small group of people with limited statistical power. (由于当前的实验基于一小群人，统计功效有限，因此很难评估这些变化的显著性)”可知，实验的一个缺点是样本量小。故选D项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“But while some research suggests that sad music can improve mood and make us feel good, it’s possible that in some situations, it can have the opposite effect. Sad music may worsen discomfort through emotional connection, the authors suggest. In contrast, cheerful or relaxing music may help volunteers maintain a good physical state, thus improving their comfort.(尽管有研究表明悲伤的音乐能够改善情绪、让人感觉良好，但作者指出，在某些情况下，它也可能适得其反。悲伤的音乐可能通过情感共鸣加剧不适感。相比之下，欢快或舒缓的音乐则有助于参与者保持良好的身体状态，从而提升舒适感)”可推知，虽然某些情况下悲伤的音乐能改善情绪，但在 这项研究中，它可能通过情绪连接加重不适,即可能产生意想不到的负面效果。这暗示了音乐对晕车的效果并非总是积极的。故选C项。 第二节 七选五(共5小题;每小题25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。 How to Create Good Study Habits for Exams With good study habits, you can reduce your stress and face exams with confidence.

Her parents ran a local bakery that had been in the family for decades, but lately, business was declining. Supermarkets with cheaper bread and pastries drew most customers away, and Mia often saw her parents sighing over empty cash registers at night. One Saturday morning, Mia was helping arrange bread on the shelf when an elderly man named Mr. Henderson entered. He was a regular, but his steps looked unsteady. “Just a loaf of your mother’s wheat bread, dear,” he said, his voice weak. Mia handed it to him, and when he fumbled with his wallet, she noticed his hands shaking. “Take it on the house, Mr. Henderson,” she said softly. The old man smiled gratefully, mentioning that many seniors in town struggled to afford fresh food since the community food bank closed last month. Mia’s heart sank. That afternoon, she sat in the bakery’s backyard, thinking hard. The bakery was struggling, but the seniors’ problem weighed on her. She remembered her grandma used to say, “Small kindnesses tie a town together.” Suddenly, an idea popped into her head. She rushed inside to tell her parents, but they looked hesitant — they could barely keep the bakery going, let alone take on more. Undeterred, Mia decided to try anyway. She made a poster and hung it outside the bakery: “Free bread for seniors every Friday — donations welcome.” The next morning, she waited anxiously by the door. Just as she started to doubt herself, a car pulled up, and a woman she didn’t know rolled down the window... 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Mia walked over to the car, wondering what the woman wanted. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weeks later, the bakery and the town seemed to have changed. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Mia walked over to the car, wondering what the woman wanted. “Hi, I’m Clara from the town’s community center,” the woman said, handing her a box of flour. “I heard about your plan — many locals want to help. This is from Mrs. Green’s grocery store, and Mr. Torres will bring butter later.” Mia’s eyes lit up. Soon, more people came with donations: eggs, sugar, and even cash. Seniors started visiting on Fridays, chatting while picking up bread, filling the bakery with laughter. Her parents, touched by the support, joined in, baking extra pastries for the seniors. Weeks later, the bakery and the town seemed to have changed. The bakery was always busy — locals came not just for bread, but to support the initiative. A new community food bank opened, funded by donations from the bakery’s visitors. Mia often saw seniors helping out at the bakery, packing bread or greeting customers. Oakwood felt warmer than ever; people smiled and helped each other more. Mia’s parents no longer sighed at empty registers, and she realized: when a community stands together, no problem is too big. She turned a small kindness into something that has tied the whole town. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。米娅家的小镇面包店生意因超市竞争而下滑，她看到老人亨德森先生买面包手抖，得知很多老人因食物银行关闭吃不上新鲜食物，便不顾父母犹豫，贴海报为老人提供免费面包并接受捐赠。一辆车停了下来，一个素不相识的女人摇下了车窗。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首内容“米娅朝那辆车走过去，心里纳闷这位女士找自己有什么事。”可知，第一段可以描写社区中心的克拉拉送来面粉并告知许多当地人愿意助力她的计划，随后众人纷纷送来物资，老人们也前来光顾面包店，米娅父母深受触动加入帮忙的过程。 ②由第二段句首内容“几周后，这家面包店，乃至整个小镇，似乎都发生了改变。”可知，第二段可以描写几周后面包店变得热闹，镇上还开设了新的社区食物银行，老人们主动到店帮忙，整个小镇充满温情，米娅由此领悟到团结力量大的道理，最后升华文章主旨：小小的善意能凝聚整个社区的温暖。 2.续写线索：朝车走过去 ——送物资 —— 众人纷纷捐赠 —— 老人光顾添活力 —— 父母加入共出力 —— 都发生了改变—— 小镇焕新添温情 —— 善意凝聚显力量 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①帮助：help/assist ②加入：join in/take part in/participate in ③开设：open/set up/establish 情绪类 ①感动：touch/move ②善意：kindness/goodwill 【点睛】【高分句型1】Mia’s parents no longer sighed at empty registers, and she realized: when a community stands together, no problem is too big.(运用了when引导的时间状语从句) 【高分句型2】She turned a small kindness into something that has tied the whole town.(运用了that引导的定语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
