B That morning, after taking our oldest child to kindergarten, I went back home, let our two younger kids play, and worked on my medical report. It was wonderful, but it hit me that my career in hospital wasn’t making a difference in anyone’s life. I needed something that would stretch my limits and push me to grow. My career enabled me to work from home and become a foster (领养) mother, providing safety for a child who needed it desperately. Monday morning, I grabbed the phone and rang the number I’d found via Google for the nearest Department of Children’s Services. The man on the other end was receptive to my questions and explained the next step of training, involving eight weeks of classes designed to prepare and educate foster parents. We continued through all the classes, the home visits, background checks, and seemingly endless steps. Five months after our approval, a middle-of-the-night phone call woke me. I aroused my husband and we hurried to East Tennessee Children’s Hospital, where our foster placement awaited us in the ER, ill and malnourished. It didn’t take long for us to realize the full depth of her suffering. Six months later, her half-brother came to us by our request. We now had five children under our care. On August 12, 2016, our family of seven walked into a small courtroom. The children’s lawyer and social worker were there. With just a few words, our adoption was finalized. These two amazing children weren’t going home, because they were already home. We are their forever family and they are our forever children. We may not be able to change the entire world, but we have changed the world entirely for our new children. 4. How did the author feel about her hospital work? A. Unusually demanding. B. Filled with challenges. C. Lacking in motivation. D. Packed with chances. 5. What caused the author to choose to adopt children? A. She experienced training to raise children properly. B. She felt sympathetic for abused children she knew C. She felt confident about her ability to raise children. D. She desired to have a positive impact on others’ lives. 6. How did the author receive her first foster child? A. The child was brought to her home by a social worker. B. She got a midnight call and rushed to a hospital ER. C. She picked the child up from a kindergarten. D. The child’s half-brother introduced them. 7. Why did the author appear at the courtroom? A. To make the adoption officially legal. B. To receive another adopted child. C. To put the adopted kids elsewhere. D. To begin the kids’ adoption in her home. C In the past, when driving to a cinema was necessary for entertainment, it was clear how one’s actions could affect the environment. After all, you were jumping into your car, driving across town, coughing out emissions (产生排放) and using gas all the way. But now that we’re used to staying at home and streaming movies, we might get a little proud. After all, we’re just picking up our phones and maybe turning on the TV. You’re welcome. Mother Nature. The Shift Project, which is based in France, recently published a report that says, “Not so fast.” According to “Climate Crisis: The Unsustainable Use of Online Video”, digital technologies are responsible for 4% of greenhouse gas emissions, and that energy use is increasing by 9% a year. Watching a half-hour show would cause 1.6 kilograms of carbon dioxide emissions. That’s like driving 6.28 kilometers. And in the European Union, the Eureka project found that data centers (where videos are stored) there used 25% more energy in 2017 compared to just three years earlier, reports the BBC. Streaming is only predicted to grow further as we become fonder of our digital devices (设备) and the chance to access entertainment whenever and wherever we want is rising. Online video use is expected to increase by four times from 2017 to 2022 and account for 80% of all Internet traffic by 2022. By then, about 60% of the world’s population will be online. Although you probably won’t quit streaming services, experts say there are still ways to help reduce the impact of your online activity. For example, according to Lutz Stobbe, a researcher from the Fraunhofer Institute in Berlin, we have no need to upload 25 pictures of the same thing to the cloud because it consumes energy every time. If instead you delete a few things here and there, you can save energy. Moreover, it’s also a good idea to stream over Wi-Fi, watch on the smallest screen you can, and turn off your Wi-Fi in your home if you’re not using your devices. 8. What topic is the first paragraph intended to lead in? A. The environmental impacts of streaming services. B. The improvements on environmental awareness. C. The change in the way people seek entertainment. D. The impact of driving private cars on the environment. 9. What does Para. 2 imply about digital tech’s environmental effect? A. Their energy use has been declining in recent years. B. Watching a half-hour show is worse than driving 6 km. C. Their contribution to emissions is growing rapidly. D. Data centers in the EU used less energy in 2017. 10. What can we infer about the use of streaming services? A. Its environmental effects are worsening. B. It is being reduced to protect the planet. C. It is easily available to almost everyone. D. Its side effects have drawn global attention. 11. Which of the following is the most environmentally-friendly? A. Playing online games over mobile networks. B. Downloading music on a personal computer. C. Uploading a lot of images of the same thing. D. Watching downloaded movies on a mobile phone. D Approximately 3.66 million years ago, an individual belonging to an unknown hominid (原始人类) species walked across a field of wet volcanic ash in what is today East Africa, leaving several footprints behind. A new study suggests that the five ancient footprints — largely ignored since they were partly uncovered in 1976 at Tanzania’s Laetoli site — show evidence of a hominid walking upright. Earlier researchers believed the marks were difficult to classify and could have been produced by a young bear standing up and taking a few steps. But the latest analysis refutes that suggestion. DeSilva, together with McNutt and their colleagues, completely dug out and cleaned the five Laetoli footprints in June 2019. Then they measured, photographed and 3D scanned the ancient tracks. McNutt’s group focused on two footprints that were particularly well-preserved. The Laetoli individual’s foot shape, size, and walking style differed in several ways from those of other hominids at the same site. The prints also didn’t match those from modern black bears and modern chimps (黑猩猩) walking upright. According to researchers, the Laetoli individual’s foot was wider and more chimplike than a human’s. Its big toe stuck out slightly from the second toe (脚趾), but not as much as in chimps. On one step, the Laetoli individual’s left leg crossed in front of the right leg, leaving a left footprint directly in front of the previous track. People may cross-step (交叉迈步) in this way when trying to regain balance. Bears and chimps stand wide due to their bone structure, which stops them from walking like the Laetoli individual and from cross-stepping, scientists say. Given that only two of the ancient footprints are complete enough to analyze thoroughly, the possibility that a chimp other than a hominid made the Laetoli footprints can’t be ruled out, says William Harcourt Smith, a scientist at Lehman College. But evidence of cross-stepping is enough to prove that a hominid made the tracks, he says. 12. What does the underlined word “refutes” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. supports. B. contradicts. C. ignores. D. criticizes. 13. Why do researchers think the footprints differ from those of bears or chimps? A. They are not as similar to chimps. B. They have toes sticking out. C. They possess features of cross-stepping. D. They show relatively wide standing. 14. What does William think of the new research finding? A. It’s confusing. B. It’s challenging. C. It’s persuasive. D. It’s doubtful. 15. What is the purpose of the text? A. To introduce a new discovery. B. To describe a major event. C. To introduce an unknown species. D. To compare different hominid species. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读短文，从短文后选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。有两项为多余选项。 Joseph Conrad, a famous English novelist, said that his goal as a writer was “to make you hear, to make you feel, and above all, to make you see.

It was the day of the annual art exhibition, and we had promised to meet at exactly 3:00 p.m. to get the best seats. The clock was ticking, and the sky gradually turned dark. Thirty minutes had passed, but Lily was still nowhere to be seen. I stood under a big tree, checking my phone repeatedly. No messages, no calls. Anger slowly rose in my chest. “She must have forgotten completely,” I muttered to myself, feeling stupid for being so early. I decided that even if she showed up, I would never speak to her. Just as I was about to leave, a familiar figure ran towards me. It was Lily, out of breath, with a big smile on her face. “Sorry, sorry!” she said, gasping for air. “I tried to get here as fast as I could.” Looking at her messy hair and dirty shoes, I thought she was just making excuses. Without a word, I rolled my eyes and walked past her towards the exhibition hall. Lily didn’t argue or explain more but followed me silently. I could feel her eyes on my back, but I kept my face cold, determined to teach her a lesson. When we finally arrived, the lights were on. We walked to our usual spot, only to find that our seats were still empty. However, beside the seats, there was a wrapped gift box and a note written in Lily’s neat handwriting: “For my dearest friend, I prepared it as an anniversary gift just for you. Thank you for being my best friend for ten years. I hope you like it.” Paragraph 1: My anger melted away the moment I read the note and saw the gift. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Lily sat down beside me, looking nervous and waiting for my reaction. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025—2026学年度第二学期期中学情调研 高二英语试题 本试卷分为选择题和非选择题两部分。时间120分钟，总分150分 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。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.

It was wonderful, but it hit me that my career in hospital wasn’t making a difference in anyone’s life. I needed something that would stretch my limits and push me to grow. My career enabled me to work from home and become a foster (领养) mother, providing safety for a child who needed it desperately. Monday morning, I grabbed the phone and rang the number I’d found via Google for the nearest Department of Children’s Services. The man on the other end was receptive to my questions and explained the next step of training, involving eight weeks of classes designed to prepare and educate foster parents. We continued through all the classes, the home visits, background checks, and seemingly endless steps. Five months after our approval, a middle-of-the-night phone call woke me. I aroused my husband and we hurried to East Tennessee Children’s Hospital, where our foster placement awaited us in the ER, ill and malnourished. It didn’t take long for us to realize the full depth of her suffering. Six months later, her half-brother came to us by our request. We now had five children under our care. On August 12, 2016, our family of seven walked into a small courtroom. The children’s lawyer and social worker were there. With just a few words, our adoption was finalized. These two amazing children weren’t going home, because they were already home. We are their forever family and they are our forever children. We may not be able to change the entire world, but we have changed the world entirely for our new children. 4. How did the author feel about her hospital work? A. Unusually demanding. B.

A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了作者因感觉医院工作缺乏动力而选择成为领养母亲，最终成功领养两个孩子的故事。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“It was wonderful, but it hit me that my career in hospital wasn’t making a difference in anyone’s life. I needed something that would stretch my limits and push me to grow.(这很棒，但我突然意识到，我在医院的职业生涯并没有改变任何人的生活。我需要一些能拓展我的极限、推动我成长的东西)”可知，作者觉得医院的工作缺乏动力。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“I needed something that would stretch my limits and push me to grow. My career enabled me to work from home and become a foster (领养) mother, providing safety for a child who needed it desperately.(我需要一些能拓展我的极限、推动我成长的东西。我的职业使我能在家工作，成为一名养母，为一个迫切需要安全的孩子提供安全)”可知，作者渴望对别人的生活产生积极影响，所以选择领养孩子。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Five months after our approval, a middle-of-the-night phone call woke me. I aroused my husband and we hurried to East Tennessee Children’s Hospital, where our foster placement awaited us in the ER, ill and malnourished.(批准五个月后，一个半夜的电话吵醒了我。我叫醒丈夫，我们匆匆赶到东田纳西儿童医院，我们的寄养孩子在急诊室等着我们，病得很重，营养不良)”可知，作者半夜接到电话，然后匆忙赶到医院急诊室，接收了她的第一个寄养孩子。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“On August 12, 2016, our family of seven walked into a small courtroom. The children’s lawyer and social worker were there. With just a few words, our adoption was finalized.(2016年8月12日，我们一家七口走进一个小法庭。孩子们的律师和社会工作者也在那里。只说了几句话，我们的收养就完成了)”可知，作者出现在法庭是为了使收养正式合法化。 C In the past, when driving to a cinema was necessary for entertainment, it was clear how one’s actions could affect the environment. After all, you were jumping into your car, driving across town, coughing out emissions (产生排放) and using gas all the way. But now that we’re used to staying at home and streaming movies, we might get a little proud. After all, we’re just picking up our phones and maybe turning on the TV. You’re welcome. Mother Nature. The Shift Project, which is based in France, recently published a report that says, “Not so fast.” According to “Climate Crisis: The Unsustainable Use of Online Video”, digital technologies are responsible for 4% of greenhouse gas emissions, and that energy use is increasing by 9% a year. Watching a half-hour show would cause 1.6 kilograms of carbon dioxide emissions. That’s like driving 6.28 kilometers. And in the European Union, the Eureka project found that data centers (where videos are stored) there used 25% more energy in 2017 compared to just three years earlier, reports the BBC. Streaming is only predicted to grow further as we become fonder of our digital devices (设备) and the chance to access entertainment whenever and wherever we want is rising. Online video use is expected to increase by four times from 2017 to 2022 and account for 80% of all Internet traffic by 2022. By then, about 60% of the world’s population will be online. Although you probably won’t quit streaming services, experts say there are still ways to help reduce the impact of your online activity. For example, according to Lutz Stobbe, a researcher from the Fraunhofer Institute in Berlin, we have no need to upload 25 pictures of the same thing to the cloud because it consumes energy every time. If instead you delete a few things here and there, you can save energy. Moreover, it’s also a good idea to stream over Wi-Fi, watch on the smallest screen you can, and turn off your Wi-Fi in your home if you’re not using your devices. 8. What topic is the first paragraph intended to lead in? A. The environmental impacts of streaming services. B. The improvements on environmental awareness. C. The change in the way people seek entertainment. D. The impact of driving private cars on the environment. 9. What does Para. 2 imply about digital tech’s environmental effect? A. Their energy use has been declining in recent years. B. Watching a half-hour show is worse than driving 6 km. C. Their contribution to emissions is growing rapidly. D. Data centers in the EU used less energy in 2017. 10. What can we infer about the use of streaming services? A. Its environmental effects are worsening. B. It is being reduced to protect the planet. C. It is easily available to almost everyone. D. Its side effects have drawn global attention. 11. Which of the following is the most environmentally-friendly? A. Playing online games over mobile networks. B. Downloading music on a personal computer. C. Uploading a lot of images of the same thing. D. Watching downloaded movies on a mobile phone. 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了流媒体服务对环境的影响及减少其影响的建议。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“But now that we’re used to staying at home and streaming movies, we might get a little proud. After all, we’re just picking up our phones and maybe turning on the TV.(但现在我们习惯了待在家里看流媒体电影，我们可能会有点自豪。毕竟，我们只是拿起手机，或者打开电视)”以及第二段中“According to ‘Climate Crisis: The Unsustainable Use of Online Video’, digital technologies are responsible for 4% of greenhouse gas emissions, and that energy use is increasing by 9% a year.(根据《气候危机：在线视频的不可持续使用》，数字技术占温室气体排放量的4%，而且能源使用量每年以9%的速度增长)”可知，第一段旨在引出流媒体服务对环境的影响这一话题。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“According to “Climate Crisis: The Unsustainable Use of Online Video”, digital technologies are responsible for 4% of greenhouse gas emissions, and that energy use is increasing by 9% a year.(根据《气候危机：在线视频的不可持续使用》，数字技术占温室气体排放量的4%，而且能源使用量每年以9%的速度增长)”可知，数字技术对排放的贡献正在迅速增长。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Streaming is only predicted to grow further as we become fonder of our digital devices (设备) and the chance to access entertainment whenever and wherever we want is rising.(随着我们越来越喜欢数字设备，以及随时随地都能获得娱乐的机会增加，流媒体预计只会进一步增长)”以及第二段中“According to “Climate Crisis: The Unsustainable Use of Online Video”, digital technologies are responsible for 4% of greenhouse gas emissions, and that energy use is increasing by 9% a year. Watching a half-hour show would cause 1.6 kilograms of carbon dioxide emissions. That’s like driving 6.28 kilometers. And in the European Union, the Eureka project found that data centers (where videos are stored) there used 25% more energy in 2017 compared to just three years earlier, reports the BBC.(根据《气候危机：在线视频的不可持续使用》报告，数字技术造成的温室气体排放量占比达4%，且能源使用量正以每年9%的速度增长。观看半小时的节目会产生1.6千克的二氧化碳排放量，这相当于驾车行驶6.28公里。据英国广播公司报道，在欧盟，尤里卡项目发现，与三年前相比，当地的数据中心（视频存储地）在2017年的能源消耗量增加了25%)”提到的数字技术对环境的影响可知，流媒体服务的使用对环境的影响正在恶化。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Moreover, it’s also a good idea to stream over Wi-Fi, watch on the smallest screen you can, and turn off your Wi-Fi in your home if you’re not using your devices.(此外，通过Wi-Fi流媒体传输、在尽可能小的屏幕上观看、如果不用设备就关闭家里的Wi-Fi也是个好主意)”可知，在手机上观看下载的电影是最环保的，因为它不需要使用流媒体服务，从而减少了能源消耗和碳排放。 D Approximately 3.66 million years ago, an individual belonging to an unknown hominid (原始人类) species walked across a field of wet volcanic ash in what is today East Africa, leaving several footprints behind. A new study suggests that the five ancient footprints — largely ignored since they were partly uncovered in 1976 at Tanzania’s Laetoli site — show evidence of a hominid walking upright. Earlier researchers believed the marks were difficult to classify and could have been produced by a young bear standing up and taking a few steps. But the latest analysis refutes that suggestion. DeSilva, together with McNutt and their colleagues, completely dug out and cleaned the five Laetoli footprints in June 2019. Then they measured, photographed and 3D scanned the ancient tracks. McNutt’s group focused on two footprints that were particularly well-preserved. The Laetoli individual’s foot shape, size, and walking style differed in several ways from those of other hominids at the same site. The prints also didn’t match those from modern black bears and modern chimps (黑猩猩) walking upright. According to researchers, the Laetoli individual’s foot was wider and more chimplike than a human’s. Its big toe stuck out slightly from the second toe (脚趾), but not as much as in chimps. On one step, the Laetoli individual’s left leg crossed in front of the right leg, leaving a left footprint directly in front of the previous track. People may cross-step (交叉迈步) in this way when trying to regain balance. Bears and chimps stand wide due to their bone structure, which stops them from walking like the Laetoli individual and from cross-stepping, scientists say. Given that only two of the ancient footprints are complete enough to analyze thoroughly, the possibility that a chimp other than a hominid made the Laetoli footprints can’t be ruled out, says William Harcourt Smith, a scientist at Lehman College. But evidence of cross-stepping is enough to prove that a hominid made the tracks, he says. 12. What does the underlined word “refutes” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. supports. B. contradicts. C. ignores. D. criticizes. 13. Why do researchers think the footprints differ from those of bears or chimps? A. They are not as similar to chimps. B. They have toes sticking out. C. They possess features of cross-stepping. D. They show relatively wide standing. 14. What does William think of the new research finding? A. It’s confusing. B. It’s challenging. C. It’s persuasive. D. It’s doubtful. 15. What is the purpose of the text? A. To introduce a new discovery. B. To describe a major event. C. To introduce an unknown species. D. To compare different hominid species. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了一项新研究对坦桑尼亚莱托利遗址古脚印的分析，表明其由直立行走的原始人类留下。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Earlier researchers believed the marks were difficult to classify and could have been produced by a young bear standing up and taking a few steps. But the latest analysis refutes that suggestion.(早期研究人员认为，这些痕迹很难分类，可能是由一只小熊站起来走几步留下的。但最新的分析驳斥了这一观点)”可知，早期研究人员认为这些脚印可能是小熊留下的，但最新分析refutes这一观点，所以“refutes”意为“驳斥，反驳”，与“contradicts”意思相近。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Bears and chimps stand wide due to their bone structure, which stops them from walking like the Laetoli individual and from cross-stepping, scientists say.(科学家说，熊和黑猩猩由于骨骼结构的原因站立得很宽，这使得它们无法像莱托利古人类那样行走，也无法交叉迈步)”以及第五段中“But evidence of cross-stepping is enough to prove that a hominid made the tracks, he says.(但他说，交叉迈步的证据足以证明这些脚印是原始人类留下的)”可知，研究人员认为这些脚印与熊或黑猩猩的不同，是因为它们具有交叉迈步的特征。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中“Given that only two of the ancient footprints are complete enough to analyze thoroughly, the possibility that a chimp other than a hominid made the Laetoli footprints can’t be ruled out, says William Harcourt Smith, a scientist at Lehman College. But evidence of cross-stepping is enough to prove that a hominid made the tracks, he says.(莱曼学院的科学家威廉·哈考特·史密斯表示，鉴于只有两个古脚印完整到足以进行全面分析，因此不能排除留下莱托利脚印的是黑猩猩而非原始人类这种可能性。但他说，交叉迈步的证据足以证明这些脚印是原始人类留下的)”可知，William认为交叉迈步的证据足以证明这些脚印是原始人类留下的，即他认为这个新的研究发现是有说服力的。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“A new study suggests that the five ancient footprints — largely ignored since they were partly uncovered in 1976 at Tanzania’s Laetoli site — show evidence of a hominid walking upright.(一项新的研究表明，这五个古老的脚印——自1976年在坦桑尼亚莱托利遗址部分出土以来基本被忽视——显示了原始人类直立行走的证据)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要介绍了一项新研究对坦桑尼亚莱托利遗址古脚印的分析，表明其由直立行走的原始人类留下，所以文章的目的是介绍一项新发现。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读短文，从短文后选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。有两项为多余选项。 Joseph Conrad, a famous English novelist, said that his goal as a writer was “to make you hear, to make you feel, and above all, to make you see. That, and no more, is everything.” ____16____ Often it leaves a single sharp impression to be turned over and over in the mind. After finishing the story, the reader should have something to think about: the humor of life, its ironies, or the unpredictability of human behavior. ____17____ The first and most obvious level is conveyed through the plot. Plot refers to the sequence of events, to the actions of the characters and the situations in which they are involved. To explain the plot, then, is to tell what happened in the story and to whom.

In Hemingway’s story, The Old Man and the Sea, however, we must approach the content on another level. ____18____ To understand and appreciate the story, the reader must be able to identify its general topic or theme. The next step is to identify the device by which the author comments on this theme. ____19____ Readers cannot appreciate a short story fully unless they react not only to what has been said but also to how it has been said. ____20____ Style grows out of the writer’s own personality and can be seen in the choice of words and phrases, the arrangement of sentences, the rhythm and tone. Structure refers to the architecture of the story, the way in which the details are selected and arranged to produce the desired effect. A. They must look for style and structure. B. In complex stories, careful readers may not always agree with the author. C. The impact on the reader comes from the sudden and unexpected response. D. A good short story tries to give the reader a sense of the actual experience. E. Finally, the reader should be able to explain the insights which the author has given into the theme. F. The impact of the story comes from the insight it gives us into the needs and desires of youth and old age. G. In order to read a short story with full understanding, the reader must approach the content on two levels. 【答案】16. D 17. G 18. F 19. E 20.

It was the day of the annual art exhibition, and we had promised to meet at exactly 3:00 p.m. to get the best seats. The clock was ticking, and the sky gradually turned dark. Thirty minutes had passed, but Lily was still nowhere to be seen. I stood under a big tree, checking my phone repeatedly. No messages, no calls. Anger slowly rose in my chest. “She must have forgotten completely,” I muttered to myself, feeling stupid for being so early. I decided that even if she showed up, I would never speak to her. Just as I was about to leave, a familiar figure ran towards me. It was Lily, out of breath, with a big smile on her face. “Sorry, sorry!” she said, gasping for air. “I tried to get here as fast as I could.” Looking at her messy hair and dirty shoes, I thought she was just making excuses. Without a word, I rolled my eyes and walked past her towards the exhibition hall. Lily didn’t argue or explain more but followed me silently. I could feel her eyes on my back, but I kept my face cold, determined to teach her a lesson. When we finally arrived, the lights were on. We walked to our usual spot, only to find that our seats were still empty. However, beside the seats, there was a wrapped gift box and a note written in Lily’s neat handwriting: “For my dearest friend, I prepared it as an anniversary gift just for you. Thank you for being my best friend for ten years. I hope you like it.” Paragraph 1: My anger melted away the moment I read the note and saw the gift. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Lily sat down beside me, looking nervous and waiting for my reaction. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 Paragraph 1: My anger melted away the moment I read the note and saw the gift. I gently unwrapped the package, revealing a delicate hand-painted fan with my favorite cherry blossom pattern. The bright colors and careful details made my heart soften. Glancing at Lily, I noticed her left knee was scraped and dirty, her coat torn. Realizing she must have fallen while rushing to make the gift, I was struck by a wave of remorse. How could I have judged her so harshly without knowing the truth? Paragraph 2: Lily sat down beside me, looking nervous and waiting for my reaction. Taking her hand, I smiled and apologized sincerely for my cold attitude. She sighed in relief and explained that she had spent the whole afternoon making the fan, but then got caught in a sudden rainstorm on the way. At that moment, the beautiful fan felt warmer than any gift before. This incident taught me a precious lesson: never jump to conclusions before you truly understand someone else’s story. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物情绪变化为线索展开，讲述了作者与好友Lily相约去看艺术展，Lily迟到让作者十分生气，作者决定不理她。到达后作者发现座位旁有Lily准备的周年礼物和便条，看到礼物和便条后作者怒气消散，意识到自己不该没了解真相就严厉指责Lily，最后作者向Lily真诚道歉，这次经历也让作者明白不要轻易对他人下结论的道理。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写作者打开礼物看到里面精美的东西，又注意到Lily受伤的膝盖和破旧的外套，意识到她可能是赶着做礼物才摔倒的，作者为此感到愧疚。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写作者握住Lily的手真诚道歉，Lily解释自己因做礼物和遇雨才迟到，作者觉得这个礼物比以往任何礼物都温暖，并从这件事中吸取教训。 2. 续写线索：打开礼物——发现Lily受伤——意识到误解——真诚道歉——解释迟到原因——感悟 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ① 注意到：notice/observe/spot ③解释：explain/account for/clarify 情绪类 ①后悔：remorse/regret ②真诚地：sincerely/genuinely 【点睛】【高分句型1】Glancing at Lily, I noticed her left knee was scraped and dirty, her coat torn.(运用了现在分词作状语，省略了that的宾语从句和独立主格结构) 【高分句型2】Realizing she must have fallen while rushing to make the gift, I was struck by a wave of remorse.(运用了现在分词作状语、省略了that的宾语从句和while引导的时间状语从句的省略) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
