His parents divorced when he was young, and he moved frequently throughout his childhood. Wilson grew up exploring the forests and wildlife. One of these adventures left him partly blind, but they also set off his lifelong fascination (着迷) with ants and their social structures. Wilson earned his bachelor’s and master’s degrees from the University of Alabama. In 1955, he received his PhD from Harvard and worked there until retirement. Wilson’s early study of ants led to his first major discovery in 1959: How ants communicate through the release of chemical signals. Later, in 1990, Wilson and German biologist Bent Holldobler published their Pulitzer-winning The Ants. It detailed the insects’ social structure that was both valued by entomologists (昆虫学者) and accessible to general readers. Another of Wilson’s major works started in the early 1960s when he teamed up with Robert MacArthur. The pair published The Theory of Island Biogeography, where they sought to explain why different places have different numbers of species. What many consider to be Wilson’s most important contributions to evolutionary biology came in 1975 when he published Sociobiology: The New Synthesis. The work explored the genetic and evolutionary roots of animal behaviour and argued that genes shaped human behaviour. Wilson faced accusations (谴责) for these ideas but finally his work largely proved true. In 1978, his ideas on the role biology plays in human culture ended in On Human Nature, which won him a Pulitzer in 1979. Wilson published more than 400 scientific papers and 20 books. He received more than 150 awards and honours from around the world. These accomplishments offered him a type of academic superstar status, but friends and colleagues said the polite Southerner remained down to earth. “One of the qualities I really admired about Professor Wilson was his ability to really listen to and engage with whomever he was interacting with, ” said Corrie S. Moreau, who was one of Wilson’s final advisees. 4. What contributed to Wilson’s passion for ants? A. His accidental disability. B. His boyhood spent in nature. C. The school education he received. D. The discovery he made about ants. 5. What is the book On Human Nature about? A. The links between biology and human culture. B. The distribution of different species. C. The social structure of ants. D. The role of chemical signals in communication. 6. According to the last paragraph, which word can best describe Wilson? A. Warm-hearted. B. Honest. C. Independent. D. Productive. 7. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To promote Wilson’s most popular books. B. To explain the social behavior of ants in detail. C. To highlight the challenges Wilson faced in his personal life. D. To introduce the life and key achievements of Wilson. C The Amazon rainforest, stretching across millions of square miles and sheltering countless species, hides thousands of ancient settlements beneath its dense forest — many of which have remained unknown despite decades of archaeological work. Surveying such a vast and often inaccessible area is both slow and costly. “It can take years to survey even a small area,” notes Chris Fisher, emphasizing the limits of traditional fieldwork and the urgency of finding new approaches. In 2024, OpenAI launched the “OpenAI to Z Challenge”, inviting teams to explore satellite imagery and remote sensing data for evidence of undiscovered settlements. The winning team, Black Bean, combined satellite images, digital elevation models, and data, training AI models to detect patterns similar to those found in previously identified sites. Yao Zhao, a team member, reflected: “We were looking for subtle signals that human eyes might overlook.” Their analysis highlighted 67 areas across the Amazon, many gathered near rivers — an unsurprising observation, as ancient civilizations often developed along accessible waterways that supported agriculture and transport. The competition offered a $ 250,000 cash prize and access to OpenAI’s advanced tools. Sarah Parcak, a satellite archaeologist, explained, “AI doesn’t replace human judgment. It helps us focus on the most promising locations.” Fisher added, “It’s like having a research assistant who never tires, capable of quickly analyzing enormous amounts of data.” These insights show how technology can complement, rather than replace, traditional archaeological expertise. Yet, the project also raises ethical concerns. Native communities worried that their lands and cultural heritage could be affected without consultation. Brazil’s native ministry requested a pause in the competition until local voices were considered. OpenAI emphasized that all datasets were public and excluded sensitive regions. Zhao assured, “We have no immediate plans to visit these sites, and any future exploration will prioritize environmental and cultural preservation.” This initiative illustrates the potential of combining advanced technology with human insight, but it also prompts reflection. How can researchers apply AI to uncover hidden histories while respecting the people and ecosystems involved? Parcak concludes, “AI can reveal patterns swiftly, yet thoughtful human judgment remains essential to ensure discoveries are pursued responsibly.” 8. Why did the “OpenAI to Z Challenge” invite teams to use satellite imagery? A. To find evidence of unknown ancient settlements. B. To test AI’s ability in analyzing elevation models. C. To study how rivers support Amazon agriculture. D. To reduce the cost of protecting native lands. 9. What can we infer about traditional archaeological fieldwork in the Amazon? A. It is fast but extremely expensive. B. It has already used AI to survey large areas. C. It often ignores areas along waterways. D. It is difficult to conduct in remote regions. 10. What does “complement” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Replace completely. B. Assist and supplement. C. Control strictly. D. Challenge seriously. 11. What is Sarah Parcak’s attitude toward AI in archaeological work? A. AI can take the place of human judgment. B. AI will damage native cultural heritage. C. AI is helpful but needs human guidance. D. AI’s data is too public to be reliable. D A groundbreaking study by Chinese researchers, recently published in Nature, has uncovered a shared biological mechanism behind two of the fastest-acting antidepressant treatments — ketamine and electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). The research identifies the adenosine signaling pathway as the key factor behind their strong antidepressant effects. This discovery may help create safer and more effective treatments for patients who do not respond to traditional medicine. Depression remains one of the most common mental illnesses worldwide. Nearly one-third of patients suffer from treatment-resistant depression (TRD), meaning that usual drugs fail to improve their symptoms. For these patients, ketamine and ECT are currently the fastest options, often showing relief within hours. However, both methods can cause serious side effects such as hallucinations, addiction, or memory problems, and their underlying mechanisms have long remained unclear. To address this problem, researchers from Peking University, the Beijing Institute for Brain Research, and the Chinese Academy of Sciences employed advanced imaging tools to observe how these therapies act in the brain. They discovered that both treatments cause a sudden and lasting rise of adenosine in brain regions related to mood control. This chemical release helps relieve depressive symptoms quickly, though the two treatments start the process in different ways — one by reducing energy production, the other by increasing brain energy use. Based on this new understanding, the team developed a modified form of ketamine that works more efficiently at lower doses with fewer side effects in animal tests. This discovery marks a shift from experience-based therapy toward precision medicine. By explaining a mystery that has puzzled scientists for decades, it provides clear new targets for drug design. The team has already applied for patents for related drugs and devices, aiming to bring their discoveries to clinical use soon and offer new hope to patients with treatment-resistant depression. 12. What do we know about ketamine and ECT according to the passage? A. They are the only treatments for depression. B. They can relieve TRD symptoms within hours. C. They have no side effects on patients. D. Their working mechanisms have been clear for decades. 13. What can we infer about the modified ketamine from the passage? A. It may become a safer alternative to original ketamine. B. It reduces side effects by changing the adenosine signaling pathway. C. It is more effective at higher doses in animal tests. D. It has been widely used to treat TRD patients clinically. 14. What will the research team most likely do next? A. Focus on applying the discovery to treat other mental illnesses. B. Publish more papers to explain the adenosine signaling pathway. C. Conduct clinical trials to test the modified ketamine on humans. D. Stop related research as the core mechanism has been uncovered. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. A New Cure for All Depression Patients B. How to Avoid Side Effects of Ketamine and ECT C. Chinese Researchers’ Discovery on Fast Antidepressants D. Why TRD Is Hard to Treat Globally 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。 When I first started traveling, my dad asked me what I was running away from.

I remember watching her sit by the window, holding tiny beads (珠子) and threads. With careful fingers, she would string them together, one by one, until they formed a small, beautiful charm. “This is not just a decoration,” she would say softly, “every bead holds a wish.” I spent many afternoons beside her, sorting beads by color. She let me try stringing the beads together, but my threads always ended in a mess. I failed again and again, growing increasingly impatient. I frowned and gave up quickly, unwilling to practice any more. I did not understand why she worked so slowly and why every bead had to be just so. I put the threads and beads aside and never touched them again. To me, it was just playing with pretty things. Time passed. I grew older and moved to the city. My grandmother worked alone. People no longer wanted handmade charms and bought shiny ones from shops. They were cheaper and looked more modern. I heard that my grandmother had stopped making them. She looked helpless and always felt down. Then one winter, I came home and found her sitting in her old chair. The bead box was closed. Dust sat on the windowsill. She looked up and smiled, holding out her hand. In her hand lay a small and simple charm — a red bead with a silver thread. It was the first one I had ever made with her many years ago. I held it and felt something warm spread through my chest. That night, I could not sleep. Memories of her warm hands and kind smiles filled my mind. I hated to see her beloved handcraft fade away as she grew old. I deeply wanted to carry on her skill but feared I was too clumsy to learn it. Torn between hope and worry, I finally calmed my heart. I realized love mattered more than anything else, so I decided I would ask Grandma to teach me again. 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 morning, I went to my grandmother’s room. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ For the next two weeks, I sat beside her every day to learn her craft. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 江苏省扬州中学阶段性检测 高二英语 本试卷分四个部分。满分：150分，考试时间：120分钟。 注意事项 1. 答题前，请务必将学校、姓名、准考证号填写在答题纸上。 2. 请用0.5毫米黑色签字笔按题号在答题纸指定区域作答，在其它位置作答一律无效。 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.

Wilson, known as “the ant man”, was born on June 10, 1929, in Birmingham, Alabama. His parents divorced when he was young, and he moved frequently throughout his childhood. Wilson grew up exploring the forests and wildlife. One of these adventures left him partly blind, but they also set off his lifelong fascination (着迷) with ants and their social structures. Wilson earned his bachelor’s and master’s degrees from the University of Alabama. In 1955, he received his PhD from Harvard and worked there until retirement. Wilson’s early study of ants led to his first major discovery in 1959: How ants communicate through the release of chemical signals. Later, in 1990, Wilson and German biologist Bent Holldobler published their Pulitzer-winning The Ants. It detailed the insects’ social structure that was both valued by entomologists (昆虫学者) and accessible to general readers. Another of Wilson’s major works started in the early 1960s when he teamed up with Robert MacArthur. The pair published The Theory of Island Biogeography, where they sought to explain why different places have different numbers of species. What many consider to be Wilson’s most important contributions to evolutionary biology came in 1975 when he published Sociobiology: The New Synthesis. The work explored the genetic and evolutionary roots of animal behaviour and argued that genes shaped human behaviour. Wilson faced accusations (谴责) for these ideas but finally his work largely proved true. In 1978, his ideas on the role biology plays in human culture ended in On Human Nature, which won him a Pulitzer in 1979. Wilson published more than 400 scientific papers and 20 books. He received more than 150 awards and honours from around the world. These accomplishments offered him a type of academic superstar status, but friends and colleagues said the polite Southerner remained down to earth. “One of the qualities I really admired about Professor Wilson was his ability to really listen to and engage with whomever he was interacting with, ” said Corrie S. Moreau, who was one of Wilson’s final advisees. 4. What contributed to Wilson’s passion for ants? A. His accidental disability. B. His boyhood spent in nature. C. The school education he received. D. The discovery he made about ants. 5. What is the book On Human Nature about? A. The links between biology and human culture. B. The distribution of different species. C. The social structure of ants. D. The role of chemical signals in communication. 6. According to the last paragraph, which word can best describe Wilson? A. Warm-hearted. B. Honest. C. Independent. D. Productive. 7. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To promote Wilson’s most popular books. B. To explain the social behavior of ants in detail. C. To highlight the challenges Wilson faced in his personal life. D. To introduce the life and key achievements of Wilson. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这篇文章主要讲述了“蚁人”爱德华・威尔逊的生平，他因童年探索自然的经历痴迷蚂蚁，在哈佛取得多项重大科学成就，著作等身且为人谦逊。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Wilson grew up exploring the forests and wildlife. One of these adventures left him partly blind, but they also set off his lifelong fascination (着迷) with ants and their social structures.( 威尔逊从小就喜欢探索森林和野生动物。其中一次冒险让他部分失明，但这也激发了他对蚂蚁及其社会结构的终身痴迷。)”可知，威尔逊儿时在大自然中的经历让他对蚂蚁产生了如此浓厚的兴趣。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“In 1978, his ideas on the role biology plays in human culture ended in On Human Nature, which won him a Pulitzer in 1979.( 1978 年，他关于生物学在人类文化中所起作用的观点在《人类本性》一书中得以阐述，该书使他于 1979 年获得了普利策奖。)”可知，《论人性》这本书系统阐述了生物学在人类文化中扮演的角色，即生物学与人类文化之间的联系。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Wilson published more than 400 scientific papers and 20 books. He received more than 150 awards and honours from around the world.( 威尔逊发表了400多篇科学论文和20本书。他获得了来自世界各地的150多个奖项和荣誉。)”可知，这些数据直接体现了威尔逊惊人的学术产出量，因此“多产的（Productive）”是最能概括他这一特质的词。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章介绍了威尔逊的童年经历、教育背景、四大核心学术成就（蚂蚁交流机制、《蚂蚁》、岛屿生物地理学、社会生物学）以及他的学术影响力和个人品格。由此可知，全文的核心目的是全面介绍爱德华・威尔逊的生平及其关键科学成就。 C The Amazon rainforest, stretching across millions of square miles and sheltering countless species, hides thousands of ancient settlements beneath its dense forest — many of which have remained unknown despite decades of archaeological work. Surveying such a vast and often inaccessible area is both slow and costly. “It can take years to survey even a small area,” notes Chris Fisher, emphasizing the limits of traditional fieldwork and the urgency of finding new approaches. In 2024, OpenAI launched the “OpenAI to Z Challenge”, inviting teams to explore satellite imagery and remote sensing data for evidence of undiscovered settlements. The winning team, Black Bean, combined satellite images, digital elevation models, and data, training AI models to detect patterns similar to those found in previously identified sites. Yao Zhao, a team member, reflected: “We were looking for subtle signals that human eyes might overlook.” Their analysis highlighted 67 areas across the Amazon, many gathered near rivers — an unsurprising observation, as ancient civilizations often developed along accessible waterways that supported agriculture and transport. The competition offered a $ 250,000 cash prize and access to OpenAI’s advanced tools. Sarah Parcak, a satellite archaeologist, explained, “AI doesn’t replace human judgment. It helps us focus on the most promising locations.” Fisher added, “It’s like having a research assistant who never tires, capable of quickly analyzing enormous amounts of data.” These insights show how technology can complement, rather than replace, traditional archaeological expertise. Yet, the project also raises ethical concerns. Native communities worried that their lands and cultural heritage could be affected without consultation. Brazil’s native ministry requested a pause in the competition until local voices were considered. OpenAI emphasized that all datasets were public and excluded sensitive regions. Zhao assured, “We have no immediate plans to visit these sites, and any future exploration will prioritize environmental and cultural preservation.” This initiative illustrates the potential of combining advanced technology with human insight, but it also prompts reflection. How can researchers apply AI to uncover hidden histories while respecting the people and ecosystems involved? Parcak concludes, “AI can reveal patterns swiftly, yet thoughtful human judgment remains essential to ensure discoveries are pursued responsibly.” 8. Why did the “OpenAI to Z Challenge” invite teams to use satellite imagery? A. To find evidence of unknown ancient settlements. B. To test AI’s ability in analyzing elevation models. C. To study how rivers support Amazon agriculture. D. To reduce the cost of protecting native lands. 9. What can we infer about traditional archaeological fieldwork in the Amazon? A. It is fast but extremely expensive. B. It has already used AI to survey large areas. C. It often ignores areas along waterways. D. It is difficult to conduct in remote regions. 10. What does “complement” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Replace completely. B. Assist and supplement. C. Control strictly. D. Challenge seriously. 11. What is Sarah Parcak’s attitude toward AI in archaeological work? A. AI can take the place of human judgment. B. AI will damage native cultural heritage. C. AI is helpful but needs human guidance. D. AI’s data is too public to be reliable. 【答案】8. A 9. D 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍利用人工智能探索亚马逊古遗址的项目、优势成效，同时探讨其引发的伦理争议与合理应用方式。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“In 2024, OpenAI launched the “OpenAI to Z Challenge”, inviting teams to explore satellite imagery and remote sensing data for evidence of undiscovered settlements.(2024年，OpenAI发起“OpenAI to Z挑战赛”，邀请各团队通过卫星图像和遥感数据探寻未被发现的定居点的证据)”可知，该挑战赛邀请团队使用卫星图像是为了寻找未知古代定居点的踪迹。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Surveying such a vast and often inaccessible area is both slow and costly.(勘测这片广阔且通常难以进入的区域既耗时又耗资巨大)”可知，亚马逊雨林偏远区域难以抵达，传统考古实地工作开展难度极大。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“AI doesn’t replace human judgment. It helps us focus on the most promising locations.(人工智能不会取代人类的判断。它帮助我们聚焦最有勘探价值的区域)”以及“It’s like having a research assistant who never tires, capable of quickly analyzing enormous amounts of data.(它就像一位不知疲倦的研究助手，能够快速分析海量数据)”可知，人工智能是辅助、补充传统考古工作，而非取代。因此complement意为“辅助、补充”，即Assist and supplement。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Sarah Parcak, a satellite archaeologist, explained, “AI doesn’t replace human judgment. It helps us focus on the most promising locations.”（卫星考古学家萨拉·帕尔卡解释道：“人工智能不会取代人类的判断。它帮助我们聚焦最有勘探价值的区域”）”可知，她认为人工智能具备辅助作用，但离不开人类的判断与指导。 D A groundbreaking study by Chinese researchers, recently published in Nature, has uncovered a shared biological mechanism behind two of the fastest-acting antidepressant treatments — ketamine and electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). The research identifies the adenosine signaling pathway as the key factor behind their strong antidepressant effects. This discovery may help create safer and more effective treatments for patients who do not respond to traditional medicine. Depression remains one of the most common mental illnesses worldwide. Nearly one-third of patients suffer from treatment-resistant depression (TRD), meaning that usual drugs fail to improve their symptoms. For these patients, ketamine and ECT are currently the fastest options, often showing relief within hours. However, both methods can cause serious side effects such as hallucinations, addiction, or memory problems, and their underlying mechanisms have long remained unclear. To address this problem, researchers from Peking University, the Beijing Institute for Brain Research, and the Chinese Academy of Sciences employed advanced imaging tools to observe how these therapies act in the brain. They discovered that both treatments cause a sudden and lasting rise of adenosine in brain regions related to mood control. This chemical release helps relieve depressive symptoms quickly, though the two treatments start the process in different ways — one by reducing energy production, the other by increasing brain energy use. Based on this new understanding, the team developed a modified form of ketamine that works more efficiently at lower doses with fewer side effects in animal tests. This discovery marks a shift from experience-based therapy toward precision medicine. By explaining a mystery that has puzzled scientists for decades, it provides clear new targets for drug design. The team has already applied for patents for related drugs and devices, aiming to bring their discoveries to clinical use soon and offer new hope to patients with treatment-resistant depression. 12. What do we know about ketamine and ECT according to the passage? A. They are the only treatments for depression. B. They can relieve TRD symptoms within hours. C. They have no side effects on patients. D. Their working mechanisms have been clear for decades. 13. What can we infer about the modified ketamine from the passage? A. It may become a safer alternative to original ketamine. B. It reduces side effects by changing the adenosine signaling pathway. C. It is more effective at higher doses in animal tests. D. It has been widely used to treat TRD patients clinically. 14. What will the research team most likely do next? A. Focus on applying the discovery to treat other mental illnesses. B. Publish more papers to explain the adenosine signaling pathway. C. Conduct clinical trials to test the modified ketamine on humans. D. Stop related research as the core mechanism has been uncovered. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. A New Cure for All Depression Patients B. How to Avoid Side Effects of Ketamine and ECT C. Chinese Researchers’ Discovery on Fast Antidepressants D. Why TRD Is Hard to Treat Globally 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. C 【解析】 【导语】中国研究者发现两种快速抗抑郁疗法的共同生物机制，该发现助力研发更安全高效的抗抑郁治疗方案。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Nearly one-third of patients suffer from treatment-resistant depression (TRD), meaning that usual drugs fail to improve their symptoms. For these patients, ketamine and ECT are currently the fastest options, often showing relief within hours.(近三分之一的患者患有难治性抑郁症，即常规药物无法改善他们的症状。对于这些患者来说，氯胺酮和电休克疗法是目前见效最快的治疗方式，通常数小时内即可缓解症状)”可知，氯胺酮和电休克疗法可在数小时内缓解难治性抑郁症症状。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Based on this new understanding, the team developed a modified form of ketamine that works more efficiently at lower doses with fewer side effects in animal tests.(基于这一新认知，该团队研发出一种改良版氯胺酮，在动物实验中，该药剂低剂量即可高效起效，且副作用更少)”可推知，改良版氯胺酮有望成为原版氯胺酮更安全的替代方案。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The team has already applied for patents for related drugs and devices, aiming to bring their discoveries to clinical use soon and offer new hope to patients with treatment-resistant depression.(该团队已为相关药物和设备申请专利，旨在尽快将研究成果投入临床应用，为难治性抑郁症患者带来新希望)”可推知，研究团队下一步最可能开展人体临床试验，推进改良氯胺酮的临床应用。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，并结合第一段中的“A groundbreaking study by Chinese researchers, recently published in Nature, has uncovered a shared biological mechanism behind two of the fastest-acting antidepressant treatments — ketamine and electroconvulsive therapy (ECT).(中国研究人员近期发表在《自然》杂志上的一项开创性研究，揭示了两种起效最快的抗抑郁疗法 —— 氯胺酮与电休克疗法背后共同的生物机制)”可知，文章主要介绍中国研究人员在快速抗抑郁药物及疗法方面取得的研究成果。C选项“中国研究者关于速效抗抑郁药物的发现”能概括文章主旨，适合用作标题。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When I first started traveling, my dad asked me what I was running away from.

In teahouses, cups are washed in a practiced rhythm. For locals, nothing beats yum cha — a pot of tea, two dim sum dishes. For Patrick Parsons, an Irish nobleman ____36____ has lived in China for over 20 years with his Chinese wife, this ritual is part of daily life. His favorite dim sum is har gow — shrimp dumplings with a thin, clear wrapper. The wrapper must be so delicate that it requires great skill to make. His tea habit has also changed. In Ireland, he ____37____ (drink) tea with milk and sugar; now he drinks it pure. And surprisingly, he finds Guangzhou’s teahouses similar ____38____Irish pubs. Both offer a warm, lively place for ____39____ (society) gathering. Chef Xu Jinhui sees morning tea as ____40____cultural treasure, ____41____(consider) it a perfect blend of dim sum, tea, and human connection.

In recent years, takeaway food is very popular in China. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文： Should We Order Take-out Foods at School? In recent years, take-out foods are very popular in China. Some people are used to having delicious foods delivered directly to their dinner table. This surely saves them much trouble, as they don’t have to spend time cooking a meal for themselves. But as high school students, should we order take-out foods online at school? Personally, I don’t think it right to do so. Firstly, it’s known to all that take-out foods are usually delivered in plastic containers. Countless plastic bags and boxes will cause white pollution to our school. Secondly, there can be health risks involved in the take-out foods. So in my view, take-out foods must be banned from entering school, so that we can have a good environment and better health. 【解析】 【导语】要求考生以“外卖食品是否应该进校园”为题，用英文给该报社写一篇稿件。 【详解】1.词汇积累 习惯：be used to→be accustomed to 无数的：countless→numerous 造成：cause→result in/contribute to 观点：view→perspective 2.句式拓展 同义句 原句：Firstly, it’s known to all that take-out foods are usually delivered in plastic containers. 拓展句：Firstly, what is known to all is that take-out foods are usually delivered in plastic containers. 【点睛】【高分句型1】This surely saves them much trouble, as they don’t have to spend time cooking a meal for themselves.（运用了as引导原因状语从句） 【高分句型2】Firstly, it’s known to all that take-out foods are usually delivered in plastic containers.（运用了it作形式主语，that引导主语从句） 第二节 读后续写 （满分25分） 47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 My grandmother’s hands were never still. I remember watching her sit by the window, holding tiny beads (珠子) and threads. With careful fingers, she would string them together, one by one, until they formed a small, beautiful charm. “This is not just a decoration,” she would say softly, “every bead holds a wish.” I spent many afternoons beside her, sorting beads by color. She let me try stringing the beads together, but my threads always ended in a mess. I failed again and again, growing increasingly impatient. I frowned and gave up quickly, unwilling to practice any more. I did not understand why she worked so slowly and why every bead had to be just so. I put the threads and beads aside and never touched them again. To me, it was just playing with pretty things. Time passed. I grew older and moved to the city. My grandmother worked alone. People no longer wanted handmade charms and bought shiny ones from shops. They were cheaper and looked more modern. I heard that my grandmother had stopped making them. She looked helpless and always felt down. Then one winter, I came home and found her sitting in her old chair. The bead box was closed. Dust sat on the windowsill. She looked up and smiled, holding out her hand. In her hand lay a small and simple charm — a red bead with a silver thread. It was the first one I had ever made with her many years ago. I held it and felt something warm spread through my chest. That night, I could not sleep. Memories of her warm hands and kind smiles filled my mind. I hated to see her beloved handcraft fade away as she grew old. I deeply wanted to carry on her skill but feared I was too clumsy to learn it. Torn between hope and worry, I finally calmed my heart. I realized love mattered more than anything else, so I decided I would ask Grandma to teach me again. 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 morning, I went to my grandmother’s room. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ For the next two weeks, I sat beside her every day to learn her craft. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： The next morning, I went to my grandmother’s room. She was sitting by the window, looking out quietly. I took a deep breath and said, “Grandma, I want to learn your craft again. Please teach me.” She looked surprised and could hardly believe her ears. She asked gently why I had changed my mind. I told her I truly wanted to learn her craft and carry on her wishes. Hearing my words, she breathed a long sigh of relief, with warm tears in her eyes. She smiled and gladly agreed to teach me. For the next two weeks, I sat beside her every day to learn her craft. She showed me how to choose the right beads and knot the thread carefully. “You must be patient,” she said. “A charm made in a hurry brings no luck.” At first, I failed many times and my works were messy. But I never gave up. Grandma never blamed me; instead, she guided my hands patiently just like before. With continuous practice, I finally made a beautiful charm. She praised me and said it carried a sincere wish. I felt proud and happy that her precious skill could be passed down through me. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了“我”小时候不愿耐心学习祖母的串珠手艺，长大后看到祖母因手艺被冷落而失落，在看到儿时自己做的串珠后心生愧疚，决心重新向祖母学习，传承这份手艺与心意的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写 ① 由第一段首句可知，接下来可描写“我”向祖母表明想学串珠手艺的决心，祖母的惊讶与动容，以及祖母答应教“我”的过程。 ② 由第二段首句可知，接下来可描写祖母教“我”串珠的细节、“我”从失败到成功的过程，体现“我”的耐心与坚持，以及祖母的温柔指导。 2. 续写线索 主动向祖母提出学手艺→祖母惊讶动容并答应→祖母耐心传授串珠技巧→“我”克服困难、反复练习→“我”成功做出串珠，传承祖母手艺与心意 3.词类激活 行为类 ①微笑：smile/beam ②放弃：give up/quit 情绪类 ①惊讶的：surprised/astonished ②高兴的：happy/delighted/overjoyed 【点睛】【高分句型1】She asked gently why I had changed my mind.（运用了why引导宾语从句） 【高分句型2】 She showed me how to choose the right beads and knot the thread carefully. （运用了“特殊疑问词+不定式”作宾语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
