Passage 2
(2024·全国高考甲卷·D)
“I didn’t like the ending,” I said to my favorite college professor.It was my junior year of undergraduate, and I was doing an independent study on Victorian literature. I had just finished reading The Mill on the Floss by George Eliot, and I was heartbroken with the ending. Prof.Gracie, with all his patience, asked me to think about it beyond whether I liked it or not.He suggested I think about the difference between endings that I wanted for the characters and endings that were right for the characters, endings that satisfied the story even if they didn’t have a traditionally positive outcome.Of course, I would have preferred a different ending for Tom and Maggie Tulliver, but the ending they got did make the most sense for them.
This was an aha moment for me, and I never thought about endings the same way again.From then on, if I wanted to read an ending guaranteed to be happy, I’d pick up a love romance.If I wanted an ending I couldn’t guess, I’d pick up a mystery (悬疑小说).One where I kind of knew what was going to happen, historical fiction.Choosing what to read became easier.
But writing the end—that’s hard.It’s hard for writers because endings carry so much weight with readers.You have to balance creating an ending that’s unpredictable, but doesn’t seem to come from nowhere, one that fits what’s right for the characters.
That’s why this issue (期) of Writer’s Digest aims to help you figure out how to write the best ending for whatever kind of writing you’re doing.If it’s short stories, Peter Mountford breaks down six techniques you can try to see which one helps you stick the landing.Elizabeth Sims analyzes the final chapters of five great novels to see what key points they include and how you can adapt them for your work.
This issue won’t tell you what your ending should be—that’s up to you and the story you’re telling—but it might provide what you need to get there.
32.Why did the author go to Prof.Gracie?
A.To discuss a novel.
B.To submit a book report.
C.To argue for a writer.
D.To ask for a reading list.
33.What did the author realize after seeing Prof. Gracie?
A.Writing is a matter of personal preferences.
B.Readers are often carried away by characters.
C.Each type of literature has its unique ending.
D.A story which begins well will end well.
34.What is expected of a good ending?
A.It satisfies readers’ taste.
B.It fits with the story development.
C.It is usually positive.
D.It is open for imagination.
35.Why does the author mention Peter Mountford and Elizabeth Sims?
A.To give examples of great novelists.
B.To stress the theme of this issue.
C.To encourage writing for the magazine.
D.To recommend their new books.

②As they all know, this suggestion is________________________________.
【答案】 worthy of being considered worthy of consideration
【详解】考查固定搭配和名词。句意:大家都知道,这个建议值得考虑。表示“值得做某事”为be worthy of sth或者be worthy of doing sth;空格处需要填入的是“值得考虑”,建议与考虑之间为被动关系,所以需要使用动名词的被动语态,所以第一空为worthy of being considered。“考虑”的名词为consideration,为不可数名词,所以第二空为worthy of consideration。故答案①worthy of being considered;②worthy of consideration。6.Young people may risk going deaf if they are exposed to very loud music every day.
①________________, young people may risk going deaf.(过去分词短语作状语)
②________________, young people may risk going deaf.(现在分词短语作状语)
【答案】 Exposed to very loud music every day Exposing themselves to very loud music every day
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:如果年轻人每天都暴露在嘈杂的音乐中,他们可能会有失聪的风险。根据题干要求,第一空使用过去分词短语作状语,使用短语be exposed to,去掉be动词,过去分词形式作状语即可,exposed置于句首,首字母大写,即Exposed to very loud music every day;第二空使用现在分词短语作状语,使用短语expose oneself to,使用themselves表示“他们自己”,expose与逻辑主语young people之间是主动关系,所以使用现在分词形式作状语,exposing置于句首,首字母大写,即Exposing themselves to very loud music every day。故填①Exposed to very loud music every day,②Exposing themselves to very loud music every day。
7.(普通表达)The number of people who run the red light has declined since the new traffic regulations came into effect.

8.He claimed that he had seen a round black creature moving quickly through the water. (同义句转换)
→He ________ a round black creature moving quickly through the water the other day.
【答案】claimed to have seen
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:他声称他看到一个圆形的黑色生物在水中快速移动。原句中claim后的that从句可以改写为不定式作宾语,claim to do something“声称做某事”;因为句中see的动作发生在谓语动词claim之前,此处应该用不定式的完成时claim to have seen;动词claim和原句一致用一般过去时。故填claimed to have seen。

→ We owe _______________ all the children are well taken care of in this kindergarten.
【答案】it to you that
【详解】考查it作形式宾语和that从句作真正的宾语。句意:我们应该感谢这个幼儿园里所有的孩子都受到很好的照顾。由句意原句中的it指代All the children are well taken care of in this kindergarten.的内容,所以将两句进行合并后应用it作形式宾语,that all the children are well taken care of in this kindergarten.从句作真正的宾语,故答案为it to you that。

Passage 2
(2024·全国高考甲卷·D)
“I didn’t like the ending,” I said to my favorite college professor.It was my junior year of undergraduate, and I was doing an independent study on Victorian literature. I had just finished reading The Mill on the Floss by George Eliot, and I was heartbroken with the ending. Prof.Gracie, with all his patience, asked me to think about it beyond whether I liked it or not.He suggested I think about the difference between endings that I wanted for the characters and endings that were right for the characters, endings that satisfied the story even if they didn’t have a traditionally positive outcome.Of course, I would have preferred a different ending for Tom and Maggie Tulliver, but the ending they got did make the most sense for them.
This was an aha moment for me, and I never thought about endings the same way again.From then on, if I wanted to read an ending guaranteed to be happy, I’d pick up a love romance.If I wanted an ending I couldn’t guess, I’d pick up a mystery (悬疑小说).One where I kind of knew what was going to happen, historical fiction.Choosing what to read became easier.
But writing the end—that’s hard.It’s hard for writers because endings carry so much weight with readers.You have to balance creating an ending that’s unpredictable, but doesn’t seem to come from nowhere, one that fits what’s right for the characters.
That’s why this issue (期) of Writer’s Digest aims to help you figure out how to write the best ending for whatever kind of writing you’re doing.If it’s short stories, Peter Mountford breaks down six techniques you can try to see which one helps you stick the landing.Elizabeth Sims analyzes the final chapters of five great novels to see what key points they include and how you can adapt them for your work.
This issue won’t tell you what your ending should be—that’s up to you and the story you’re telling—but it might provide what you need to get there.
32.Why did the author go to Prof.Gracie?
A.To discuss a novel.
B.To submit a book report.
C.To argue for a writer.
D.To ask for a reading list.
33.What did the author realize after seeing Prof. Gracie?
A.Writing is a matter of personal preferences.
B.Readers are often carried away by characters.
C.Each type of literature has its unique ending.
D.A story which begins well will end well.
34.What is expected of a good ending?
A.It satisfies readers’ taste.
B.It fits with the story development.
C.It is usually positive.
D.It is open for imagination.
35.Why does the author mention Peter Mountford and Elizabeth Sims?
A.To give examples of great novelists.
B.To stress the theme of this issue.
C.To encourage writing for the magazine.
D.To recommend their new books.
