This exhibition offers a journey through the rich history of Chinese art, from ancient dynasties to the modern era. Whether you are an art lover or just curious, there is something for everyone. Exhibition Hours: ● Tuesday-Sunday: 9:30 a.m. -5:30 p.m. ● Closed on Mondays (except public holidays) ● Last entry: 4:30 p.m. Ticket Prices: ● Adults: ¥80 ● Students (with ID): ¥40 ● Children under 12: ¥20 ● Children under 6: Free ● Group tickets (10+ people): 20% off What’s on Show: The exhibition is divided into three main galleries, each highlighting a different period and art form. Gallery 1: The Wisdom of Bronze (Shang & Zhou Dynasties) This gallery features over 50 ancient bronze vessels (n. 容器), including the famous “Duke of Zhou” tripod (周公东征三足鼎). These pieces were not just everyday objects — they were used in important ceremonies and symbolized power and tradition. The detailed designs show the skill of ancient Chinese craftsmen. Gallery 2: Masters of the Brush (Tang to Yuan Dynasties) Here, visitors can admire some of the finest ink wash paintings in Chinese history.

Born in Cardiff to Norwegian parents, Dahl discovered his passion for storytelling at a young age. His unique life experiences, including his time at boarding schools, inspired the vivid stories he would later create. After working for Shell Petroleum, Dahl turned to writing and published his first children’s book, The Gremlins (1943), which was inspired by folk tales and commissioned (委托) by Walt Disney. However, it was his later works that truly established his reputation. Books like James and the Giant Peach and The BFG combined fantasy with dark humor, featuring brave children overcoming tough problems. One of Dahl’s most popular works is Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (1964). This timeless story explores themes of greed and morality through the eyes of Charlie Bucket, a poor but kind-hearted boy who wins a golden ticket to tour Willy Wonka’s magical chocolate factory. Inside the factory, Charlie meets other children who represent different negative qualities. In contrast, Charlie’s modesty and kindness make him the perfect heir (继承人) to Wonka’s factory. The book is filled with fantastical elements, such as eatable gardens and nut-sorting squirrels, showcasing Dahl’s limitless imagination. Dahl’s writing process was as quirky as his stories. In the 1960s, he transformed an old truck into a writing space, parking it in his garden in Great Missenden, Oxfordshire. There, he crafted tales of underdogs winning over greed and unfairness, such as in Danny the Champion of the World, where a father and son outsmart a wealthy landowner. Beyond children’s books, Dahl wrote screenplays, including Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and the James Bond film You Only Live Twice. His adult short stories were also highly praised. Despite personal struggles, his work radiated humor and hope. In a poll commissioned by Canon UK, Dahl was voted “Britain’s greatest storyteller”, outshining even Dickens and J. K. Rowling. Roald Dahl’s books have been translated into 63 languages and continue to inspire generations to embrace imagination, challenge unfairness and find joy in the unexpected. 4. According to the text, Roald Dahl’s childhood experiences ______. A. made him hate writing at first B. influenced his writing in a limited way C. provided rich material for his writing D. had a great effect on his character 5. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The theme of Dahl’s first book. B. The brief introduction to a book. C. The writing style of Dahl’s books. D. The impact of children’s works on kids. 6. What does the underlined word “quirky” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Unusual. B. Boring. C. Predictable. D. Serious. 7. What can we learn about Roald Dahl from the text? A. He disliked other British authors. B. His books were more popular than Dickens’. C. He wrote more books than J. K. Rowling did. D. His storytelling was highly regarded in Britain. C Magnesium (镁) is “the relaxation mineral” and a critical nutrient involved in at least 300 enzyme (酶) reactions within the human body — and according to some studies, up to 600. This means magnesium is fundamental for muscle and nerve function, regulating blood sugar and blood pressure, and producing protein, bone, and DNA. Given its central role in so many physiological functions, it’s clear why a magnesium insufficiency can lead to symptoms such as tiredness, muscle pains, mental issues, irregular heart rhythms, and increased stress. However, many people aren’t getting enough magnesium. According to experts like Mark Hyman, MD, a leader in functional medicine, there are multiple reasons we’re not getting the recommended amounts of magnesium. Primarily, our meals are more processed and less nutrient-dense than ever before. Furthermore, the soil where our food grows is increasingly stripped of (剥夺) magnesium. Adding to this issue, our consumption of coffee, alcohol, and sugar, all of which can reduce magnesium levels, is also on the rise. So by the time you see your doctor for muscle pains, poor sleep, unexplained weight problems,urinary (泌尿的) issues or another symptom of low magnesium, it’s likely you’ll discuss much magnesium you should take per day, and the best ways to get more magnesium. The National Institutes of Health has set the upper limit of magnesium that you should take in addition form at 350 milligrams. Dr. Hyman suggests a daily supplemental magnesium intake of 300 milligrams. However, consult your healthcare provider to determine the proper amount for your unique needs, as some individuals may benefit from higher amounts. Magnesium supplements can work, but experts suggest adding magnesium-rich foods to your diet is the best way to increase magnesium intake. These include dark leafy greens (spinach, kale), nuts and seeds (pumpkin seeds, almonds, chia seeds), whole grains (brown rice, quinoa), legumes (black beans, chickpeas), avocado, and dark chocolate. Additionally, an Epsom salt bath is a relaxing way to absorb magnesium through the skin. 8. What can we learn about magnesium from the text? A. It involves exactly 300 human enzyme reactions. B. It has key effects on blood sugar- pressure regulation. C. It is mainly responsible for relieving mental illnesses. D. It may lead to increased muscle strength if insufficient. 9. What can be inferred from paragraph 2? A. Lifestyle greatly influences health. B. People should get more nutrients. C. Medicine performs vital functions. D. People should not consume sugar. 10. What is the primary purpose of citing numbers in the paragraph 4? A. To present facts. B. To contrast opinions. C. To attract readers. D. To add precision. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Proven Magnesium Effect B. The Critical Magnesium Intake C. The Missing Relaxation Mineral D. The Growing Supplement Market D Pomelo(a kind of fruit) has a thick peel that is typically thrown away, contributing to significant food waste. In a recent study, researchers at the University of Illinois looked into methods to repurpose it to develop a device capable of powering small electronic products. The pomelo peel has a thin outer layer and a thick, soft inner layer. “Some people have used pomelo peels to extract mixtures for essential oils,” the researchers said, “but we wanted to take advantage of the structure of the peel so as to upcycle it into higher-value products.” They cut it into smaller pieces and freeze-dried it to maintain its unique three-dimensional porous (多孔的) architecture. By examining its chemical composition and mechanical properties, the research team engineered a device that transforms mechanical energy into electricity. The device is contact electrified, which may sound complex, but is actually simple. When we touch a sweater, especially in the winter, sometimes we feel a shock. The basic mechanism is contact electrification, or rubbing-electrification (摩擦起电). When two materials are rubbed against each other, electricity can form due to the transfer of charges between them. The researchers used the pomelo peel and a plastic film as two rubbing-electric layers that are brought into contact when external force is present. They attached an electrode to each of these layers to judge how well the resulting device could turn external mechanical energy into electricity. By simply tapping the pomelo-peel-based rubbing-electric device with a finger, they could light up about 20 LEDs. They also showed that a sports watch can be powered only by these mechanical forces, without the need of external electricity. This work has strong potential to transform otherwise wasted energy into useful electricity; it could contribute significantly to long-term sustainability. Yi-Cheng Wang, a professor of College of Illinois, said, “We also found that, thanks to the pomelo peel’s naturally porous structure, rubbing-electric devices based on it can be highly sensitive to force and force frequency. Therefore, we got the idea of developing sensing devices that can be attached to the human body for biomechanical monitoring.” 12. What made the researchers develop the rubbing-electric device? A. The goal to produce more oils. B. The desire to cut down food waste. C. The need to test a freeze-drying technology. D. The lack of effective power-generating tools. 13. What does paragraph 3 focus on about the device? A. Its developing process. B. Its functional advantages. C. Its working principle. D. Its experimenting conditions. 14. Why are LEDs and the sports watch mentioned in paragraph 4? A. To prove the device’s effectiveness. B. To stress their energy efficiency. C. To show the device’s user-friendliness. D. To measure their electricity consumption. 15. What can we know from Professor Wang’s words? A. The devices need further tests. B. The devices inspired wider applications. C. Pomelo peel may fail to respond to force. D. Making sensing devices is their original goal. 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。 One of the most important things to do during an interview is to make sure you are building a connection with the interviewer.

Alice was skipping rope on the playground, surrounded by several classmates watching her. It was her best sport. The rope spun (旋转) quickly as she jumped. When time was up, the counter showed 201 skips. Smiling, Alice flashed a victory sign to the crowd. Just then, the school bell rang — class was over. Alice packed up her skipping rope. It was time to give her answer to Ms. Harriet. That morning, Ms. Harriet had asked her if she would be willing to take charge of the class bulletin board (板报) for the upcoming competition. The student who usually handled it, Lily, was sick, and someone needed to step in. Alice was shocked that Ms. Harriet had chosen her. She responded nervously, insisting that her handwriting was terrible. But Ms. Harriet reassured her, saying she believed in her ability and encouraged her to think it over and let her know her decision after school. Now, walking toward the teachers’ office, Alice felt nervous. The thought of her messy handwriting being put up on the wall for everyone to see made her stomach turn. She had already made up her mind to say no. With that decision in mind, she quickened her pace and ran across the sports ground. Alice was about to pass the sandpit (沙坑) when someone nearby caught her attention. It was Tom from a different class. In her mind, Tom had never been good at long jump, but he was practicing it. Curious, she went over to ask what he was doing. Tom explained that no one else had signed up for the long jump event, and without a participant, their class wouldn’t get any points in the school sports meeting. So when the headteacher asked if anyone would give it a try, he volunteered. Alice reminded him that he wasn’t good at it, but Tom simply said that he knew that and that it wasn’t about being the best, but about trying and doing his part for the class. Then he went back to practicing. What a similar issue they both faced! “If Tom could face his weakness, why couldn’t I?” Alice said to herself. 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。 With this idea in mind, Alice stepped into the teachers’ office. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A week later, the result of the competition came out. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 四川省西充中学2025—2026学年度下学期期中考试 高2024级英语试题 时间：120分钟 满分：150分 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.

Born in Cardiff to Norwegian parents, Dahl discovered his passion for storytelling at a young age. His unique life experiences, including his time at boarding schools, inspired the vivid stories he would later create. After working for Shell Petroleum, Dahl turned to writing and published his first children’s book, The Gremlins (1943), which was inspired by folk tales and commissioned (委托) by Walt Disney. However, it was his later works that truly established his reputation. Books like James and the Giant Peach and The BFG combined fantasy with dark humor, featuring brave children overcoming tough problems. One of Dahl’s most popular works is Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (1964). This timeless story explores themes of greed and morality through the eyes of Charlie Bucket, a poor but kind-hearted boy who wins a golden ticket to tour Willy Wonka’s magical chocolate factory. Inside the factory, Charlie meets other children who represent different negative qualities. In contrast, Charlie’s modesty and kindness make him the perfect heir (继承人) to Wonka’s factory. The book is filled with fantastical elements, such as eatable gardens and nut-sorting squirrels, showcasing Dahl’s limitless imagination. Dahl’s writing process was as quirky as his stories. In the 1960s, he transformed an old truck into a writing space, parking it in his garden in Great Missenden, Oxfordshire. There, he crafted tales of underdogs winning over greed and unfairness, such as in Danny the Champion of the World, where a father and son outsmart a wealthy landowner. Beyond children’s books, Dahl wrote screenplays, including Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and the James Bond film You Only Live Twice. His adult short stories were also highly praised. Despite personal struggles, his work radiated humor and hope. In a poll commissioned by Canon UK, Dahl was voted “Britain’s greatest storyteller”, outshining even Dickens and J. K. Rowling. Roald Dahl’s books have been translated into 63 languages and continue to inspire generations to embrace imagination, challenge unfairness and find joy in the unexpected. 4. According to the text, Roald Dahl’s childhood experiences ______. A. made him hate writing at first B. influenced his writing in a limited way C. provided rich material for his writing D. had a great effect on his character 5. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A.

This means magnesium is fundamental for muscle and nerve function, regulating blood sugar and blood pressure, and producing protein, bone, and DNA. Given its central role in so many physiological functions, it’s clear why a magnesium insufficiency can lead to symptoms such as tiredness, muscle pains, mental issues, irregular heart rhythms, and increased stress. However, many people aren’t getting enough magnesium. According to experts like Mark Hyman, MD, a leader in functional medicine, there are multiple reasons we’re not getting the recommended amounts of magnesium. Primarily, our meals are more processed and less nutrient-dense than ever before. Furthermore, the soil where our food grows is increasingly stripped of (剥夺) magnesium. Adding to this issue, our consumption of coffee, alcohol, and sugar, all of which can reduce magnesium levels, is also on the rise. So by the time you see your doctor for muscle pains, poor sleep, unexplained weight problems,urinary (泌尿的) issues or another symptom of low magnesium, it’s likely you’ll discuss much magnesium you should take per day, and the best ways to get more magnesium. The National Institutes of Health has set the upper limit of magnesium that you should take in addition form at 350 milligrams. Dr. Hyman suggests a daily supplemental magnesium intake of 300 milligrams. However, consult your healthcare provider to determine the proper amount for your unique needs, as some individuals may benefit from higher amounts. Magnesium supplements can work, but experts suggest adding magnesium-rich foods to your diet is the best way to increase magnesium intake. These include dark leafy greens (spinach, kale), nuts and seeds (pumpkin seeds, almonds, chia seeds), whole grains (brown rice, quinoa), legumes (black beans, chickpeas), avocado, and dark chocolate. Additionally, an Epsom salt bath is a relaxing way to absorb magnesium through the skin. 8. What can we learn about magnesium from the text? A. It involves exactly 300 human enzyme reactions. B. It has key effects on blood sugar- pressure regulation. C. It is mainly responsible for relieving mental illnesses. D. It may lead to increased muscle strength if insufficient. 9. What can be inferred from paragraph 2? A. Lifestyle greatly influences health. B. People should get more nutrients. C. Medicine performs vital functions. D. People should not consume sugar. 10. What is the primary purpose of citing numbers in the paragraph 4? A. To present facts. B. To contrast opinions. C. To attract readers. D. To add precision. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Proven Magnesium Effect B. The Critical Magnesium Intake C. The Missing Relaxation Mineral D. The Growing Supplement Market 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了镁在人体中的重要作用、缺乏镁的原因、补充镁的方式以及镁的推荐摄入量等相关信息。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“This means magnesium is fundamental for muscle and nerve function, regulating blood sugar and blood pressure, and producing protein, bone, and DNA.(这意味着镁对肌肉和神经功能、调节血糖和血压以及产生蛋白质、骨骼和DNA至关重要)”可知，镁对调节血糖和血压有关键影响。故选B项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Primarily, our meals are more processed and less nutrient-dense than ever before. Furthermore, the soil where our food grows is increasingly stripped of magnesium. Adding to this issue, our consumption of coffee, alcohol, and sugar, all of which can reduce magnesium levels, is also on the rise.(首先，我们的膳食比以往任何时候都经过了更多的加工，营养成分也更少。此外，种植我们食物的土壤中镁的含量越来越低。除此之外，我们消费的咖啡、酒精和糖也在增加，所有这些都会降低镁的水平)”可知，本段主要介绍生活方式的选择 (饮食结构和习惯) 直接影响着镁的摄入和吸收，进而影响健康。这反映出生活方式对健康有重大影响。故选A项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“The National Institutes of Health has set the upper limit of magnesium that you should take in addition form at 350 milligrams. Dr. Hyman suggests a daily supplemental magnesium intake of 300 milligrams.(美国国立卫生研究院设定了镁的摄入上限，即除了正常饮食外，你应额外摄入350毫克。Hyman博士建议每天额外补充300毫克镁)”可知，本段中引用了具体的数字来描述镁的推荐摄入量，这样做的目的是为了增加信息的精确性，使读者能够更准确地了解镁的摄入量。故选D项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，文章首先在第一段明确指出“Magnesium is “the relaxation mineral” and a critical nutrient involved in at least 300 enzyme reactions within the human body — and according to some studies, up to 600. This means magnesium is fundamental for muscle and nerve function (镁被誉为“放松矿物质”，它是人体至关重要的营养素，参与至少300种(据某些研究显示甚至高达600种) 酶促反应。这意味着镁对肌肉与神经功能起着根本性支撑作用)”。然而，第二段“However, many people aren’t getting enough magnesium. (然而，很多人没有摄入足够的镁)”笔锋一转，指出镁摄入不足，并从饮食、土壤、生活习惯等多方面分析了原因。后续段落讨论了相关症状、补充建议和最佳来源。文章的核心脉络是：强调镁这种关键矿物质的重要作用，但重点揭示了其在现代社会中普遍缺失的现状和原因。因此，C项“The Missing Relaxation Mineral (缺失的放松矿物质)”最贴切地概括了全文主旨，既点明了核心物质及其特性，又突出了文章论述的重点——其缺失性，适合作本文的标题。故选C项。 D Pomelo(a kind of fruit) has a thick peel that is typically thrown away, contributing to significant food waste. In a recent study, researchers at the University of Illinois looked into methods to repurpose it to develop a device capable of powering small electronic products. The pomelo peel has a thin outer layer and a thick, soft inner layer. “Some people have used pomelo peels to extract mixtures for essential oils,” the researchers said, “but we wanted to take advantage of the structure of the peel so as to upcycle it into higher-value products.” They cut it into smaller pieces and freeze-dried it to maintain its unique three-dimensional porous (多孔的) architecture. By examining its chemical composition and mechanical properties, the research team engineered a device that transforms mechanical energy into electricity. The device is contact electrified, which may sound complex, but is actually simple. When we touch a sweater, especially in the winter, sometimes we feel a shock. The basic mechanism is contact electrification, or rubbing-electrification (摩擦起电). When two materials are rubbed against each other, electricity can form due to the transfer of charges between them. The researchers used the pomelo peel and a plastic film as two rubbing-electric layers that are brought into contact when external force is present. They attached an electrode to each of these layers to judge how well the resulting device could turn external mechanical energy into electricity. By simply tapping the pomelo-peel-based rubbing-electric device with a finger, they could light up about 20 LEDs. They also showed that a sports watch can be powered only by these mechanical forces, without the need of external electricity. This work has strong potential to transform otherwise wasted energy into useful electricity; it could contribute significantly to long-term sustainability. Yi-Cheng Wang, a professor of College of Illinois, said, “We also found that, thanks to the pomelo peel’s naturally porous structure, rubbing-electric devices based on it can be highly sensitive to force and force frequency. Therefore, we got the idea of developing sensing devices that can be attached to the human body for biomechanical monitoring.” 12. What made the researchers develop the rubbing-electric device? A. The goal to produce more oils. B. The desire to cut down food waste. C. The need to test a freeze-drying technology. D. The lack of effective power-generating tools. 13. What does paragraph 3 focus on about the device? A. Its developing process. B. Its functional advantages. C. Its working principle. D. Its experimenting conditions. 14. Why are LEDs and the sports watch mentioned in paragraph 4? A. To prove the device’s effectiveness. B. To stress their energy efficiency. C. To show the device’s user-friendliness. D. To measure their electricity consumption. 15. What can we know from Professor Wang’s words? A. The devices need further tests. B. The devices inspired wider applications. C. Pomelo peel may fail to respond to force. D. Making sensing devices is their original goal. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15.

Alice was skipping rope on the playground, surrounded by several classmates watching her. It was her best sport. The rope spun (旋转) quickly as she jumped. When time was up, the counter showed 201 skips. Smiling, Alice flashed a victory sign to the crowd. Just then, the school bell rang — class was over. Alice packed up her skipping rope. It was time to give her answer to Ms. Harriet. That morning, Ms. Harriet had asked her if she would be willing to take charge of the class bulletin board (板报) for the upcoming competition. The student who usually handled it, Lily, was sick, and someone needed to step in. Alice was shocked that Ms. Harriet had chosen her. She responded nervously, insisting that her handwriting was terrible. But Ms. Harriet reassured her, saying she believed in her ability and encouraged her to think it over and let her know her decision after school. Now, walking toward the teachers’ office, Alice felt nervous. The thought of her messy handwriting being put up on the wall for everyone to see made her stomach turn. She had already made up her mind to say no. With that decision in mind, she quickened her pace and ran across the sports ground. Alice was about to pass the sandpit (沙坑) when someone nearby caught her attention. It was Tom from a different class. In her mind, Tom had never been good at long jump, but he was practicing it. Curious, she went over to ask what he was doing. Tom explained that no one else had signed up for the long jump event, and without a participant, their class wouldn’t get any points in the school sports meeting. So when the headteacher asked if anyone would give it a try, he volunteered. Alice reminded him that he wasn’t good at it, but Tom simply said that he knew that and that it wasn’t about being the best, but about trying and doing his part for the class. Then he went back to practicing. What a similar issue they both faced! “If Tom could face his weakness, why couldn’t I?” Alice said to herself. 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。 With this idea in mind, Alice stepped into the teachers’ office. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A week later, the result of the competition came out. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 With this idea in mind, Alice stepped into the teachers’ office. Ms. Harriet was sitting at her desk grading papers when she saw Alice. Before the teacher could speak, Alice took a deep breath and said firmly that she’d take charge of the bulletin board. She admitted her handwriting wasn’t good but promised to practice hard and put her heart into it. Ms. Harriet’s face lit up with a smile, patting her shoulder and saying she knew Alice would rise to the challenge. After school, Alice spent hours practicing writing neatly and designing the board, even asking classmates for advice on layout and color matching, determined to do her best for the class. A week later, the result of the competition came out. Their class won the first prize! When the news was announced in the morning assembly, everyone cheered and looked at Alice with pride. Ms. Harriet praised her in front of the whole class, saying the board’s careful design and sincere effort had touched the judges. Alice felt a warm joy in her heart, realizing that courage to face weaknesses and try hard was far more important than being perfect at the start. She also went to congratulate Tom—he didn’t win the long jump, but his classmates all clapped for him, proud of his courage to take on the task. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，文章讲述Alice本打算拒绝老师让她负责板报的任务，因为她觉得自己字迹很差。但她看到不擅长跳远的Tom为班级主动参赛，深受触动，意识到不应因弱点退缩，而应勇敢尝试为集体出力。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“想到这里，Alice走进了教师办公室。”可以预测续写这段主要内容：Alice下定决心接受板报任务，向老师主动请缨并承诺努力练习，放学后认真筹备，决心为班级尽力。 ②由第二段首句内容“一周后，比赛结果公布。”可以预测续写这段主要内容：Alice的班级获板报一等奖，她明白勇于尝试比完美更重要，并为勇于担当的Tom感到高兴。 2.续写线索：Alice接受板报任务——认真筹备——获板报一等奖——Alice的感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①看见：see/spot/catch sight of ②负责：take charge of /be in charge of /be responsible for ③承认： admit/confess 情绪类 ①骄傲地：with pride/proudly ②高兴：joy/happiness/delight 【点睛】[高分句型1]Before the teacher could speak, Alice took a deep breath and said firmly that she’d take charge of the bulletin board. （运用了Before引导的时间状语从句和that引导的宾语从句） [高分句型2] Alice felt a warm joy in her heart, realizing that courage to face weaknesses and try hard was far more important than being perfect at the start. （运用了现在分词realizing作状语和that引导的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
