B New research reveals that “intensive domain-specific training” like mathematics fundamentally reshapes brain activity during complex problem solving, offering insights into the cognitive neuroscience (认知神经科学) of concentration. A study published in Cognitive Neuroscience compared graduate students in math-related fields with peers in non-mathematical fields to investigate how long-term specialized practice influences thinking processes. Participants watched video demonstrations of multi-step mathematical problems while wearing brain-wave-monitoring caps to track brain activity. The study found clear differences: non-math students’ front brain areas (linked to memory and focus) worked harder as they struggled to follow logical steps. In contrast, math-intensive students displayed synchronized (同步的) slow brain waves connecting the frontal and upper-back brain areas, which are responsible for abstract reasoning and spatial processing. These slow brain rhythms, typically observed during deep sleep, appeared to facilitate efficient communication between distant neural networks during intense focus. These findings indicate that repeated exposure to complex problem solving allows math-trained students to automate basic logical steps (e.g. formula application), which saves mental energy for complex analysis. This “neural efficiency” — the brain’s adaptability through training — mirrors patterns in other experts: experienced musicians’ brains show similar slow waves when composing and athletes enter similar “flow states” during competitions. Most importantly, researchers confirm such neural efficiency isn’t inborn but develops through deliberate practice. Students with equal IQs but less math training lacked these distinctive wave patterns. However, those who engaged in repetition and intentional study eventually developed such patterns, becoming more efficient in solving problems. By the same logic, these findings hint at a trade-off that people should keep in mind particularly as artificial intelligence (AI) and other tools offer tempting shortcuts for various forms of problem solving. Dr. Elena Torres, lead researcher of the study, further warns that over-reliance on AI might weaken our brain’s natural problem-solving abilities. “Each time we off-load a problem to a calculator or ask AI to summarize an essay, we are losing an opportunity to improve our own skills and practise deep concentration for ourselves.” Torres urges “a strategic balance — use AI for repetitive labor, thanks to its fast data processing and continuous operation, but reserve complex challenges for deep, tech-free focus.” 4. What was the main purpose of the new research? A. To study how specialized training affects brains. B. To investigate how AI tools influence learning. C. To compare brain activity among math experts. D. To measure IQ levels across different specialists. 5. How did non-math students’ brains differ from those of math students in complex problem solving? A. Their front-top parts worked together. B. They showed random sleep-like waves. C. Their front area worked with extra effort. D. They processed information automatically. 6. What is crucial to developing “neural efficiency” according to the text? A. Long-term focused practice. B. Inborn abstract reasoning talent. C. Random exposure to complex problems. D. Training on memorizing basic logical steps. 7. What do Dr. Elena Torres’ quotes highlight in the last paragraph? A. AI tools limit independent learning opportunities. B. Technology improves efficiency in complex tasks. C. Overusing shortcuts harms cognitive development. D. AI tools reduce motivation for deep concentration. C It’s an observation as old as humans’ gathering around campfires: Light at night can draw a crowd of circling insects. And watching their frantic (狂乱的) movements really gives the impression that something is wrong — that instead of searching for food and avoiding predators (捕食者), these insects are trapped by a light. To study this phenomenon, researchers captured high-speed videos of insects around different light sources to determine flight paths and body postures, both in the lab and at two field sites. They found that many insects consistently pointed their backs toward the lights. This is a known behavior called the dorsal (背部的) light response. In nature, assuming that more light comes down from the sky than up from the ground, this response helps keep insects in the proper direction to fly. But pointing their backs toward nearby artificial lights changes their flight paths. They found when insects flew directly under a light, they often arched (拱起) upward as it passed behind them, keeping their backs to the light until they eventually flew straight up and stopped, falling out of the air. Why do insects, the oldest and most species-rich group of flyers, rely on a response that leaves them so vulnerable? It may have to do with their small size. Insects have only small sensory structures. And especially as they perform rapid flight movements, acceleration (加速) offers only a poor indication of which way is down. Instead, they seem to bet on the brightness of the sky. Before modern lighting, the sky was usually brighter than the ground, day or night, so it provided a fairly reliable cue for a small active flyer hoping to keep a steady direction. Now artificial lights have affected this natural ability. Although the circling of insects around a light is an interesting sight, it’s certainly better for the insects and the benefits they provide for humans when we leave the night unlit and let them go about the activities they so masterfully perform under the night sky. 8. What is the purpose of paragraph 1? A. To explain why insects are attracted to light at night. B. To describe humans’ interest in the behavior of insects. C. To show the importance of studying insects’ circling behavior. D. To arouse readers’ curiosity about the behavior of insects. 9. How does artificial light affect insects? A. It helps them detect food. B. It disturbs their flight patterns. C. It improves their flight stability. D. It leaves them open to predation. 10. Which of the following can replace the underlined part in paragraph 4? A. puts them at risk B. leaves them at ease C. warns them of dangers D. guides them through barriers 11. What can we do to help night-flying insects? A. Reduce light pollution at night. B. Create special habitats for them. C. Avoid disturbing their flying routine. D. Lessen inappropriate outdoor activities. D Science fiction can lead people to be more cautious (谨慎的) about the potential impacts of innovations. Researchers have also found that sci-fi serves as a positive influence on how people view science. Science fiction scholar Istvan calls this “science-fictional habits of mind”. However, my own research on science fiction for readers under age 12 has revealed that librarians and teachers in elementary schools treat science fiction as a genre (体裁) that works best for certain cases, like kids who like what they called “weird (怪异的)” books. Although nearly all of them expressed that science fiction was just as valuable as any other genre, they did not choose science fiction for activities or group readings. They explained that they saw the problems with science fiction for their youngest readers: complicated content. Reading researchers agree that comprehending complex texts is easier when the reader has more background knowledge. So waiting for students to get older before introducing them to science fiction is a fairly common approach. Susan Fichtelberg — a longtime librarian — wrote a guide to teen fantasy and science fiction. In it, she recommends age 12 as the prime time to start. Yet, when I read some science fiction picture books with elementary school students, none of the children struggled to understand the stories. While background knowledge can mean children’s knowledge of science, it also includes exposure to a genre. The more a reader is exposed to science fiction stories, the better he or she understands how to read them. What’s more, science fiction does not need to include detailed science or weird settings to offer valuable ideas. Picture books like Farm-Fresh Cats by Scott Santoro rely on familiar ideas like farms and cats to help readers reconsider what is familiar and what is alien. The good news is that the science fiction books in those elementary school libraries were checked out at a higher rate than all of the other genres. Encouraging children to explore science fiction may not guarantee science careers, but children deserve to learn from science fiction to help them navigate their increasingly high-tech world. 12. What does the first paragraph mainly tell us about science fiction? A. Its wide popularity. B. Its potential benefits. C. Its development trend. D. Its main characteristics. 13. What do the teachers and librarians think of science fiction? A. It is of little value for pupils. B. It is suitable for group readings. C. It is difficult to understand for pupils. D. It stimulates students’ interest in reading. 14. What is the author’s attitude towards Susan Fichtelberg’s opinion? A. Unclear. B. Supportive. C. Curious. D. Opposed. 15. What can we learn aboutFarm-Fresh Cats by Scott Santoro? A. It has many characters. B. It has a simple storyline. C. It explains scientific knowledge. D. It requires background knowledge. 三、阅读七选五：本题共5小题，共12.5分。 The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is one of the nations with the most diverse cultures in the whole Europe.

It was two days before our traditional holiday, and my flight from New York to my family in Virginia had been canceled at the last minute. Now the new flight was delayed. What a terrible start to the holiday! Being trapped among a bunch of total strangers made me stressed and frustrated. Finally, I and the group of strangers boarded our plane at an extremely slow pace. I battled my way down the aisle (过道) only to discover that I was stuck in the middle seat instead of the window seat I had booked. It was impossible to get comfortable in the middle seat, and our plane remained on the road for an hour before we were cleared for takeoff. “I’ll be lucky to get home before everyone is in bed,” I thought. Considering my bad mood, maybe that was for the best. I closed my eyes to collect myself. A baby somewhere behind me started crying loudly. That sound made me anxious, so I brought out a book to calm myself down and kill the time. The red-haired woman in the window seat noisily searched for something in her handbag. Soon, she took out a bag of snacks, which contained dried nuts and sunflower seeds. The plastic bag produced a series of short, unpleasant and loud noises as she tried to open it. Meanwhile, her elbow touched me from time to time. I tried to hide my annoyance and disappointment, and asked, “Madam, do you want me to try?” “Thanks,” she smiled and put the bag into my hands. I got a good hold on it and put all my frustration into wrestling with the bag. The guy on my other side leaned into the aisle to stay out of my way until I gave up. “Here, let me have it,” he smiled. His strategy involved lots of quick pulling, but he got nowhere. The woman across the aisle offered to give it a shot. Her technique included shaking the bag, which didn’t help. 注意：(1)续写词数应为150左右； (2)开头已给出。 Paragraph 1: The teenage boy beside her reached for the bag. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The bag was on its way back to its owner when she smiled, “No, I want everyone to have some! __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高三英语试卷 第I卷(选择题) 一、听力,本题共20小题，共30分。 1.What is the probable relationship between the speakers?

C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了新的研究揭示“特定领域的强化训练”（如数学）如何从根本上重塑大脑在解决复杂问题时的活动，提供了对集中注意力的认知神经科学的见解。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“A study published in Cognitive Neuroscience compared graduate students in math-related fields with peers in non-mathematical fields to investigate how long-term specialized practice influences thinking processes.(一项发表在《认知神经科学》杂志上的研究，对数学相关领域的研究生和非数学领域的研究生进行了对比，以探究长期的专业训练是如何影响思维过程的。)”可知，这项发表在《认知神经科学》上的研究，将数学相关领域的研究生和非数学领域的研究生进行对比，是为了探究长期的专业训练是如何影响思维过程的，而思维过程与大脑活动相关，也就是研究专业训练如何影响大脑。故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The study found clear differences: non-math students’ front brain areas (linked to memory and focus) worked harder as they struggled to follow logical steps. In contrast, math-intensive students displayed synchronized (同步的) slow brain waves connecting the frontal and upper-back brain areas, which are responsible for abstract reasoning and spatial processing.(研究发现了明显的差异：非数学专业的学生在努力理解逻辑步骤时，他们大脑前部区域（与记忆和注意力相关）更为活跃。相比之下，大量学习数学的学生大脑前部和上后部区域之间出现了同步的慢脑电波，而后两个区域负责抽象推理和空间处理。)”可知，非数学专业学生在努力理解逻辑步骤时，他们大脑前部区域更加努力地工作；而大量学习数学的学生则表现为大脑前部和上后部区域之间出现同步的慢脑电波。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Most importantly, researchers confirm such neural efficiency isn’t inborn but develops through deliberate practice. Students with equal IQs but less math training lacked these distinctive wave patterns. However, those who engaged in repetition and intentional study eventually developed such patterns, becoming more efficient in solving problems.(最重要的是，研究人员证实，这种神经效率并非天生就有，而是通过刻意练习培养出来的。智商相当但数学训练较少的学生缺乏这些独特的脑电波模式。然而，那些进行重复练习和有意学习的人最终会形成这样的模式，在解决问题时也会变得更加高效。)”可知，这种神经效率并非天生的，而是通过进行重复和有意学习最终形成了这种模式，在解决问题时变得更有效率。因此，培养“神经效率”的关键是长期专注的练习。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Dr. Elena Torres, lead researcher of the study, further warns that over-reliance on AI might weaken our brain’s natural problem-solving abilities. “Each time we off-load a problem to a calculator or ask AI to summarize an essay, we are losing an opportunity to improve our own skills and practise deep concentration for ourselves.”(该研究的首席研究员Elena Torres博士进一步警告说，过度依赖人工智能可能会削弱我们大脑天生的问题解决能力。“每次我们把一个问题交给计算器处理，或者让人工智能来总结一篇文章时，我们都失去了一个提升自身技能和锻炼深度专注力的机会。”)”可知，Elena Torres博士警告过度依赖人工智能可能会削弱我们大脑天生的问题解决能力，每次将问题交给计算器或让人工智能总结文章，我们都失去了提升自身技能和锻炼深度专注力的机会，可推知过度使用捷径（如AI）有害认知发展。故选C。 C It’s an observation as old as humans’ gathering around campfires: Light at night can draw a crowd of circling insects. And watching their frantic (狂乱的) movements really gives the impression that something is wrong — that instead of searching for food and avoiding predators (捕食者), these insects are trapped by a light. To study this phenomenon, researchers captured high-speed videos of insects around different light sources to determine flight paths and body postures, both in the lab and at two field sites. They found that many insects consistently pointed their backs toward the lights. This is a known behavior called the dorsal (背部的) light response. In nature, assuming that more light comes down from the sky than up from the ground, this response helps keep insects in the proper direction to fly. But pointing their backs toward nearby artificial lights changes their flight paths. They found when insects flew directly under a light, they often arched (拱起) upward as it passed behind them, keeping their backs to the light until they eventually flew straight up and stopped, falling out of the air. Why do insects, the oldest and most species-rich group of flyers, rely on a response that leaves them so vulnerable? It may have to do with their small size. Insects have only small sensory structures. And especially as they perform rapid flight movements, acceleration (加速) offers only a poor indication of which way is down. Instead, they seem to bet on the brightness of the sky. Before modern lighting, the sky was usually brighter than the ground, day or night, so it provided a fairly reliable cue for a small active flyer hoping to keep a steady direction. Now artificial lights have affected this natural ability. Although the circling of insects around a light is an interesting sight, it’s certainly better for the insects and the benefits they provide for humans when we leave the night unlit and let them go about the activities they so masterfully perform under the night sky. 8. What is the purpose of paragraph 1? A. To explain why insects are attracted to light at night. B. To describe humans’ interest in the behavior of insects. C. To show the importance of studying insects’ circling behavior. D. To arouse readers’ curiosity about the behavior of insects. 9. How does artificial light affect insects? A. It helps them detect food. B. It disturbs their flight patterns. C. It improves their flight stability. D. It leaves them open to predation. 10. Which of the following can replace the underlined part in paragraph 4? A. puts them at risk B. leaves them at ease C. warns them of dangers D. guides them through barriers 11. What can we do to help night-flying insects? A. Reduce light pollution at night. B. Create special habitats for them. C. Avoid disturbing their flying routine. D. Lessen inappropriate outdoor activities. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. A 【解析】 【导语】主要说明了人们很早就发现昆虫夜间会围着灯光打转。研究表明人造光打乱了昆虫依靠天光辨别方向的本能，使其飞行失常，减少夜间灯光可保护它们。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“It’s an observation as old as humans’ gathering around campfires: Light at night can draw a crowd of circling insects. And watching their frantic (狂乱的) movements really gives the impression that something is wrong — that instead of searching for food and avoiding predators (捕食者), these insects are trapped by a light.(这是一直以来人类围着篝火聚集时的观察：夜晚的灯光会吸引一群飞舞的昆虫。看着它们慌乱的举动，让人感觉似乎出了问题——这些昆虫本该在寻找食物、躲避捕食者，却反而被光所困住)”可知，第一段的目的是激发读者对昆虫行为的好奇心。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“But pointing their backs toward nearby artificial lights changes their flight paths.(但将背朝附近的灯光，会改变它们的飞行路线)”可知，人工光破坏昆虫的飞行模式。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“It may have to do with their small size. Insects have only small sensory structures. And especially as they perform rapid flight movements, acceleration (加速) offers only a poor indication of which way is down. Instead, they seem to bet on the brightness of the sky.(这可能与它们体型较小有关。昆虫只有微小的感官结构，尤其在进行快速飞行时，加速度并不能很好地判断方向是朝下还是朝上。相反，它们似乎依靠天空的亮度来判断)”可知，这种本能反应让昆虫出现飞行失常、坠落等状况，故划线词意思是“增加它们的风险”。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Although the circling of insects around a light is an interesting sight, it’s certainly better for the insects and the benefits they provide for humans when we leave the night unlit and let them go about the activities they so masterfully perform under the night sky.(尽管昆虫围绕灯光盘旋是一种有趣的景象，但当我们让夜晚不被点亮，让它们在夜空中自由活动时，这对昆虫来说无疑更好，也更有利于人类)”可知，我们可以减少夜间光污染来帮助夜间飞行的昆虫。 D Science fiction can lead people to be more cautious (谨慎的) about the potential impacts of innovations. Researchers have also found that sci-fi serves as a positive influence on how people view science. Science fiction scholar Istvan calls this “science-fictional habits of mind”. However, my own research on science fiction for readers under age 12 has revealed that librarians and teachers in elementary schools treat science fiction as a genre (体裁) that works best for certain cases, like kids who like what they called “weird (怪异的)” books. Although nearly all of them expressed that science fiction was just as valuable as any other genre, they did not choose science fiction for activities or group readings. They explained that they saw the problems with science fiction for their youngest readers: complicated content. Reading researchers agree that comprehending complex texts is easier when the reader has more background knowledge. So waiting for students to get older before introducing them to science fiction is a fairly common approach. Susan Fichtelberg — a longtime librarian — wrote a guide to teen fantasy and science fiction. In it, she recommends age 12 as the prime time to start. Yet, when I read some science fiction picture books with elementary school students, none of the children struggled to understand the stories. While background knowledge can mean children’s knowledge of science, it also includes exposure to a genre. The more a reader is exposed to science fiction stories, the better he or she understands how to read them. What’s more, science fiction does not need to include detailed science or weird settings to offer valuable ideas. Picture books like Farm-Fresh Cats by Scott Santoro rely on familiar ideas like farms and cats to help readers reconsider what is familiar and what is alien. The good news is that the science fiction books in those elementary school libraries were checked out at a higher rate than all of the other genres. Encouraging children to explore science fiction may not guarantee science careers, but children deserve to learn from science fiction to help them navigate their increasingly high-tech world. 12. What does the first paragraph mainly tell us about science fiction? A. Its wide popularity. B. Its potential benefits. C. Its development trend. D. Its main characteristics. 13. What do the teachers and librarians think of science fiction? A. It is of little value for pupils. B. It is suitable for group readings. C. It is difficult to understand for pupils. D. It stimulates students’ interest in reading. 14. What is the author’s attitude towards Susan Fichtelberg’s opinion? A. Unclear. B. Supportive. C. Curious. D. Opposed. 15. What can we learn aboutFarm-Fresh Cats by Scott Santoro? A. It has many characters. B. It has a simple storyline. C. It explains scientific knowledge. D. It requires background knowledge. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要说明了科幻有诸多益处，但小学师生认为其内容难懂，建议孩子12岁再阅读。作者对此不认同，简单的科幻绘本小学生也能读懂，且这类书籍借阅量很高。 【12题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Science fiction can lead people to be more cautious (谨慎的) about the potential impacts of innovations. Researchers have also found that sci-fi serves as a positive influence on how people view science. Science fiction scholar Istvan calls this “science-fictional habits of mind”.(科幻作品可以促使人们更加谨慎地看待创新可能带来的影响。研究人员还发现，科幻对人们的科学观具有积极影响。科幻学者伊什特万将这种现象称为“科幻思维习惯”)”可知，第一段主要告诉我们科幻小说可能带来的益处。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“They explained that they saw the problems with science fiction for their youngest readers: complicated content.(他们解释说，他们发现科幻作品对最年幼的读者来说存在一个问题：内容过于复杂)”可知，老师和图书管理员认为小学生很难理解科幻小说。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Yet, when I read some science fiction picture books with elementary school students, none of the children struggled to understand the stories. While background knowledge can mean children’s knowledge of science, it also includes exposure to a genre. The more a reader is exposed to science fiction stories, the better he or she understands how to read them.(然而，当我与小学生一起阅读一些科幻图画书时，孩子们并没有在理解故事方面遇到困难。虽然背景知识可以指儿童对科学的认知，但也包括接触某一文学体裁。读者接触科幻故事越多，就越能学会如何阅读这类作品)”可知，作者对苏珊·菲特尔伯格的观点持反对态度。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“What’s more, science fiction does not need to include detailed science or weird settings to offer valuable ideas. Picture books like Farm-Fresh Cats by Scott Santoro rely on familiar ideas like farms and cats to help readers reconsider what is familiar and what is alien.(此外，科幻作品并不需要包含复杂的科学知识或奇特的场景，也能提供有价值的创意。像斯科特·桑托罗的《农场新鲜猫》这样的图画书，通过农场和猫咪等熟悉的情节，帮助读者重新思考什么是熟悉的，什么是陌生的)”可知，斯科特·桑托罗的《农场新鲜猫》情节简单。 三、阅读七选五：本题共5小题，共12.5分。 The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is one of the nations with the most diverse cultures in the whole Europe.

It was two days before our traditional holiday, and my flight from New York to my family in Virginia had been canceled at the last minute. Now the new flight was delayed. What a terrible start to the holiday! Being trapped among a bunch of total strangers made me stressed and frustrated. Finally, I and the group of strangers boarded our plane at an extremely slow pace. I battled my way down the aisle (过道) only to discover that I was stuck in the middle seat instead of the window seat I had booked. It was impossible to get comfortable in the middle seat, and our plane remained on the road for an hour before we were cleared for takeoff. “I’ll be lucky to get home before everyone is in bed,” I thought. Considering my bad mood, maybe that was for the best. I closed my eyes to collect myself. A baby somewhere behind me started crying loudly. That sound made me anxious, so I brought out a book to calm myself down and kill the time. The red-haired woman in the window seat noisily searched for something in her handbag. Soon, she took out a bag of snacks, which contained dried nuts and sunflower seeds. The plastic bag produced a series of short, unpleasant and loud noises as she tried to open it. Meanwhile, her elbow touched me from time to time. I tried to hide my annoyance and disappointment, and asked, “Madam, do you want me to try?” “Thanks,” she smiled and put the bag into my hands. I got a good hold on it and put all my frustration into wrestling with the bag. The guy on my other side leaned into the aisle to stay out of my way until I gave up. “Here, let me have it,” he smiled. His strategy involved lots of quick pulling, but he got nowhere. The woman across the aisle offered to give it a shot. Her technique included shaking the bag, which didn’t help. 注意：(1)续写词数应为150左右； (2)开头已给出。 Paragraph 1: The teenage boy beside her reached for the bag. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The bag was on its way back to its owner when she smiled, “No, I want everyone to have some! __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Paragraph 1: The teenage boy beside her reached for the bag. “I can do it,” he said confidently, but he failed, too. The muscled fellow in that row’s window seat also gave it a shot. How could this little bag of snacks defeat so many people? Strangers now leaned in with shared curiosity, momentarily forgetting their own travel frustrations.​ “I’ve got an idea,” the teenager said to the man. “You take one side and I’ll take the other.” Together, they pulled and immediately, it opened! Paragraph 2: The bag was on its way back to its owner when she smiled, “No, I want everyone to have some!” So it went back to my row, with each person pouring out a few nuts and seeds. A quiet sense of connection began to fill the cabin, softening the edges of our earlier irritation.​ When she got the bag and turned it upside down, only a single peanut rolled out. She laughed and held up the empty bag, saying, “Happy New Year, everyone!” On a trip where everything had gone wrong, these strangers spread some cheer and joy. I was quite thankful. It seemed that all my annoyance and disappointment was gone. 【解析】 【导语】本文以“我”的旅程波折为线索展开。“我”因航班取消延误、被迫挤在陌生人中而烦躁，登机后又发现座位被调换。当邻座女士打不开零食袋时，周围乘客轮流尝试却屡屡失败。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首可知，第一段可以描写多人尝试打开零食袋的过程展开，通过不同人物动作与对话展现集体协作的雏形，并点明“共享的好奇心暂时化解了旅行焦虑”的转折。 ②由第二段句首可知，第二段可以描写零食分享的场景，通过空袋结局与节日祝福，体现陌生人之间意外建立的温情联结，并呼应“我”的情绪转变。 2.续写线索：个体尝试失败——集体协作萌芽——成功打开袋子——发起分享倡议——传递善意与欢乐——化解负面情绪获得感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①尝试：give it a shot/make an attempt ②倒出：pour out /tip out /empty out 情绪类 ①自信地说：saidy confidently/speak with assurance/declared with certainty ②欢乐：joy/delight 【点睛】【高分句型1】When she got the bag and turned it upside down, only a single peanut rolled out.
