B Finding an affordable place to live has become nearly impossible in many resort (度假胜地) towns, but one Colorado community just got an unexpected piece of good news. In Steamboat Springs, billionaire investor Mark Stevens purchased a luxury apartment complex and flipped the script (反转剧情) by offering the homes to local workers at well below market rates. The Riverview Apartments, located along the Yampa River in downtown Steamboat Springs, were originally designed as high-end rentals. But after being acquired in September, the complex took a very different direction. Construction worker Landin Hutchison was among the first to line up when applications opened. Within weeks, he, his partner Piper Rillos, and their two-year-old son had moved into a two-bedroom apartment for just over $2,100 a month. “We are pretty much saving a grand a month and living in town now,” Hutchison said. “We feel very, very fortunate.” More than 100 local workers now live in the two Riverview buildings, which together include 104 apartments. Rents were set far below typical Steamboat Springs prices, with studios listed around $925 a month, two-bedrooms around $1,600, and three-bedrooms about $2,125. What makes the programme especially unique is its simplicity: renters must work at least 30 hours a week in the community, but there are no income limits and no public housing subsidies (补助) involved. School counselor and volleyball coach Anna Allsberry says staying in her hometown wouldn’t have been possible otherwise. Before moving into Riverview, she and her partner were paying more than $3,100 a month for a smaller apartment. “The prices seemed too good to be true,” Allsberry said. “We were just so excited, relieved, and grateful. It didn’t feel real.” For many residents, Riverview represents more than just affordable housing — it’s a chance to stay rooted in the community they serve. At a time when rising costs are pushing workers out of the towns they love, this unexpected move is giving Steamboat Springs locals something increasingly rare: the ability to live where they work. 4. What did Mark Stevens do to help local workers? A. He built low-cost public housing projects. B. He provided subsidies for high-end rentals. C. He sold houses to local workers at a discount. D. He offered quality apartments at reduced rates. 5. What is a direct impact of the Riverview project? A. It eases the financial pressure on residents. B. It qualifies locals for government subsidies. C. It increases the income of local workers. D. It improves the quality of luxury buildings. 6. What does Anna think of the housing programme? A. Incredible. B. Realistic. C. Rewarding. D. Uncertain. 7. What would be a suitable title for the text? A. Luxury Housing: A New Business Trend B. Billionaire Offers Affordable Living to Locals C. A Rich Man Invests in Steamboat Springs D. Steamboat Springs Finds Housing Solution C For many, sitting on the couch with popcorn and a movie means shutting your brain off to relax. But surprisingly, two dozen brain networks are lighting up as you watch different types of movies, a new study finds. A research paper published in November in the journal Neuron shows that our brains are actually incredibly active when we watch movies. Researchers at MIT took advantage of this to create the most accurate functional brain map to date. The researchers used a functional MRI (fMRI) dataset from the Human Connectome Project, which consisted of brain scans from 176 young adults who watched 60 minutes of short movie clips (片段). An fMRI scan indirectly measures brain activity by tracking where blood flows to different regions of the brain. If a part of the brain is active, blood flow to that part increases. After the tracking, they were able to identify different brain networks needed to process different types of scenes. Overall, 24 different brain networks were activated during movie watching. The researchers could then assign functions to each network by associating them with specific cognitive processes, such as recognizing human faces, watching people interact with one another, and observing familiar settings. From this map, the researchers discovered a relationship between “executive control areas” — parts of the brain involved in planning and decision-making — and parts of the brain with other functions. When a movie scene was complex and difficult to follow, the executive control areas were highly active. However, when a scene was relatively simple, more specialized brain regions including those involved in language processing dominated. Such a detailed functional map of the brain could provide insights into how the organ’s networks are organised in both healthy people and those with conditions, which is good news for doctors. And in theory, understanding how the brain responds to movies could even help filmmakers create more engaging content. 8. What is the achievement of the researchers at MIT? A. Innovating ways to relax our brains. B. Publishing a paper about brains in December. C. Discovering the advantages of watching films. D. Mapping active areas in brains related to movie scenes. 9. What happened to the viewers watching complicated scenes? A. They took an interest in the language in them. B. Their executive control areas got activated. C. They tended to shift to another movie. D. Their relationship became tense. 10. What is the purpose of the last paragraph? A. To attract test participants. B. To advocate further studies. C. To offer filmmakers suggestions. D. To emphasize the value of the map. 11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Brains get started when you watch movies B. New brain scanning technology arrives C. Tips for finding your favourite movies D. Ways to shut off your brain and relax D Under the baking sun, Xu Xiaolong and his colleagues walked through wild grass in the Gobi Desert, scanning the rocky foothills of Helan Mountain in Yinchuan, Northwest China’s Ningxia Hui autonomous region, in search of ancient carvings. Upon finding a pattern on a rock, the team immediately photographed and recorded its location. “This field survey not only assesses the preservation status of previously discovered rock carvings but also helps identify and record new ones,” says Xu, 36, who works with the city’s Helan Mountain rock art administration. He explains that the work lays the foundation for subsequent (随后的) protection efforts. Stretching 250 kilometers, Helan Mountain is home to more than 20,000 ancient rock carvings created by early residents with stones or metal tools. Dating back approximately 10,000 to 3,000 years, the carvings describe diverse subjects ranging from natural images like human faces, animals and handprints, to ancient life scenes like hunting and herding (畜牧). Launched in 2020, the administration has surveyed over 12 square kilometers in and around the Helan Mountain rock art ruins park. Among the carvings, one is characterized by two handprints — one large and the other small. “The handprints likely symbolize ‘me’ and ‘you’, carved into the rock to reach an agreement,” says Zhang Jianguo, deputy director of the administration. He adds that attaching a handprint to documents like contracts was a traditional practice in China, and this rock carving reflects that lasting cultural continuity. Within the park, the deepest carving reaches 1.5 centimeters, a depth that has survived many years of weathering. Through an experiment, the administration found that even three people carving throughout an entire day left only unclear marks, indicating that a single work likely took multiple generations of prehistoric people to complete. Despite their historic significance, the rock carvings face typical preservation challenges like weathering and rainwater. Throughout the entire conservation journey, concrete efforts including field surveys, the construction of flood-prevention dams and protective fencing have been made by workers from the Helan Mountain rock art administration. 12. Why do the researchers study rock carvings in Helan Mountain? A. To show prehistoric carving skills. B. To reveal ancient local life and culture. C. To help restore a ruined rock art park. D. To attract tourists to Helan Mountain. 13. What do the two handprints in paragraph 4 probably represent? A. A mark pointing to Helan Mountain. B. A record of an ancient hunting activity. C. A conventional way of signing a contract. D. A gesture indicating family relationship. 14. What can we learn about the rock carving in paragraph 5? A. It was a long-term project. B. It was created in good weather. C. It was completed within limited time. D. It was discovered in an experiment. 15. What is a suitable title for the text? A. A race against time to rescue rock carvings B. Advanced techniques to protect rock carvings C. A living museum of culture in Helan Mountain D. A symbolic handprint carving in ancient China (七选五） Parents of school-aged children are all too familiar with the after-school conversation that goes like this: “How was your school?” “Fine.” “What did you learn?” “Nothing.” ____16____ Talking with children in the right way helps them understand the world, grow their vocabulary, build trust and learn how to use language properly. Believe it or not, these conversations can even influence how certain parts of a child’s brain develop. The list below details some ways parents can start language building conversations to improve children’s literacy and family relationships. ●Listen actively. ____17____ It includes making eye contact, stopping tasks at hand and repeating what they are saying, and what they may be feeling to make sure you understand. ●Ask open-ended questions. Try avoiding questions that can simply be answered with “yes”, “no” or “nothing”. Open-ended questions usually begin with words like “Why, how, describe…”, “Tell me about…”, or “What do you think about…”. ____18____ ●Try the “Strive-for-Five” framework. This conversational framework was developed by educators David Dickinson and Ann B. Morse. It aims to improve conversations by encouraging parents and educators to strive for five conversational turns with children. Instead of the usual three to help kids build language skills. To try this, continue the conversation by asking fun open-ended follow-up questions or sharing another thought. ____19____ ●Make conversations part of your daily life. If you find it difficult to actively listen and have purposeful conversations at certain times, plan them when it’s easier. ___20___ By using any or all of these suggestions, you can have more meaningful conversations. Not only will they help kids understand language better, but they’ll also make family relationships stronger. A. Don’t end it too soon. B. Show your kids how to be active listeners. C. Most children are too tired to talk after school. D. For example, talk while cooking, cleaning or reading together. E. These questions encourage children to think deeper and share more. F. Active listening means showing real interest in what kids want to share. G. But having quality conversations with kids is not just about learning how their school day goes. 二、完形填空（每小题1分，共15分） I never imagined that at 50, I would be caring for my husband Andrew, just 59, who was diagnosed with young-onset Alzheimer’s disease.

For a Chinese student, using chopsticks to eat is the most natural thing. But here, every time I ate in the cafeteria and skillfully picked up food with chopsticks, the foreign classmates around me always cast curious and slightly confused looks, and from time to time, there were whispers: “How do they do that?” At first, I would smile and briefly explain how to use chopsticks to them. But as the number of times increased, the sense of strangeness brought about by cultural differences gradually made me feel uncomfortable. Even for a moment, I hesitated to switch to a knife and fork to eat in order to fit in. During a group dinner, everyone sat around the restaurant. I habitually reached out for chopsticks. Jack, who was in the same group, saw this and exclaimed excitedly: “Hey, let’s see your magic with chopsticks!” As he spoke, he also picked up a pair of chopsticks and clumsily imitated. But before he could pick up anything, the chopsticks slipped from his hand. The other classmates laughed, and my face burned. I lowered my head to eat awkwardly, but my heart was in a mess. I realized that in their eyes, chopsticks were just a novel “performance prop (道具)”, and I, as a “foreigner” using chopsticks, seemed to have become an object of observation. After that, when facing others’ curiosity about chopsticks, I lost the initial enthusiasm to share and just casually smiled. I was afraid of this excessive attention, afraid that my cultural habits would become an “outsider label” in the eyes of others. I even began to deliberately reduce the number of times I used chopsticks in public, trying to make myself “fit in” with the local dining style. 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。 Until one day, the school held an international cultural festival. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I started to patiently explain how to hold chopsticks and what they symbolize. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高二下英语期末测试卷 一、阅读理解（每小题2.5分，共50分） A Music Production Program The Program Join us for an immersive week of music creation and performance.

A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍一项新研究发现观影时人脑十分活跃，科学家借此绘制精准大脑功能图并阐述其应用价值。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“A research paper published in November in the journal Neuron shows that our brains are actually incredibly active when we watch movies. Researchers at MIT took advantage of this to create the most accurate functional brain map to date.(十一月发表的研究论文表明观影时大脑极度活跃，麻省理工学院研究人员借此绘制出迄今为止最精准的大脑功能图谱。)”可知，研究人员的成果是绘制出与电影画面处理相关的大脑活跃区域图谱。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“When a movie scene was complex and difficult to follow, the executive control areas were highly active.(当电影画面复杂、难以理解时，大脑的执行控制区域会处于高度活跃状态。)”可知，观众观看复杂场景时，大脑执行控制区域处于高度活跃状态。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Such a detailed functional map of the brain could provide insights into how the organ’s networks are organised in both healthy people and those with conditions, which is good news for doctors. And in theory, understanding how the brain responds to movies could even help filmmakers create more engaging content.(这份详尽的大脑功能图谱，有助于深入了解健康人群与病患群体的大脑神经网络构造，这对医生而言是一则好消息。理论上来说，弄清大脑对影片的反应机制，甚至能够帮助电影制作人打造出更具吸引力的作品)”可知，本段着重介绍大脑图谱在医疗、影视等领域的多重作用，以此强调该图谱的重要价值。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中的“But surprisingly, two dozen brain networks are lighting up as you watch different types of movies, a new study finds.(一项新研究发现，观看不同类型影片时，二十多个大脑网络会被激活。)”可知，全文围绕观影时大脑并非静止放松，反而处于高度活跃状态展开论述，因此“Brains get started when you watch movies(看电影时，大脑会活跃起来)”最贴合文章主旨，适合作为标题。 D Under the baking sun, Xu Xiaolong and his colleagues walked through wild grass in the Gobi Desert, scanning the rocky foothills of Helan Mountain in Yinchuan, Northwest China’s Ningxia Hui autonomous region, in search of ancient carvings. Upon finding a pattern on a rock, the team immediately photographed and recorded its location. “This field survey not only assesses the preservation status of previously discovered rock carvings but also helps identify and record new ones,” says Xu, 36, who works with the city’s Helan Mountain rock art administration. He explains that the work lays the foundation for subsequent (随后的) protection efforts. Stretching 250 kilometers, Helan Mountain is home to more than 20,000 ancient rock carvings created by early residents with stones or metal tools. Dating back approximately 10,000 to 3,000 years, the carvings describe diverse subjects ranging from natural images like human faces, animals and handprints, to ancient life scenes like hunting and herding (畜牧). Launched in 2020, the administration has surveyed over 12 square kilometers in and around the Helan Mountain rock art ruins park. Among the carvings, one is characterized by two handprints — one large and the other small. “The handprints likely symbolize ‘me’ and ‘you’, carved into the rock to reach an agreement,” says Zhang Jianguo, deputy director of the administration. He adds that attaching a handprint to documents like contracts was a traditional practice in China, and this rock carving reflects that lasting cultural continuity. Within the park, the deepest carving reaches 1.5 centimeters, a depth that has survived many years of weathering. Through an experiment, the administration found that even three people carving throughout an entire day left only unclear marks, indicating that a single work likely took multiple generations of prehistoric people to complete. Despite their historic significance, the rock carvings face typical preservation challenges like weathering and rainwater. Throughout the entire conservation journey, concrete efforts including field surveys, the construction of flood-prevention dams and protective fencing have been made by workers from the Helan Mountain rock art administration. 12. Why do the researchers study rock carvings in Helan Mountain? A. To show prehistoric carving skills. B. To reveal ancient local life and culture. C. To help restore a ruined rock art park. D. To attract tourists to Helan Mountain. 13. What do the two handprints in paragraph 4 probably represent? A. A mark pointing to Helan Mountain. B. A record of an ancient hunting activity. C. A conventional way of signing a contract. D. A gesture indicating family relationship. 14. What can we learn about the rock carving in paragraph 5? A. It was a long-term project. B. It was created in good weather. C. It was completed within limited time. D. It was discovered in an experiment. 15. What is a suitable title for the text? A. A race against time to rescue rock carvings B. Advanced techniques to protect rock carvings C. A living museum of culture in Helan Mountain D. A symbolic handprint carving in ancient China 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15.

He adds that attaching a handprint to documents like contracts was a traditional practice in China, and this rock carving reflects that lasting cultural continuity.(在这些岩画中，有一幅以两个手印为特征——一个大一个小。“这两个手印可能象征着‘我’和‘你’，刻在岩石上以达成某种约定，”该管理处副主任张建国说。他补充道，在中国，在合同等文件上按手印是一种传统做法，这幅岩画反映了这种持久的文化延续性。)”可知，两个手印的特征及相关解读均表明，其代表古代签订约定（类似合同签约）的传统方式。故选C项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“Through an experiment, the administration found that even three people carving throughout an entire day left only unclear marks, indicating that a single work likely took multiple generations of prehistoric people to complete.(通过一项实验，管理处发现，即使三个人一整天都在雕刻，也只能留下模糊的痕迹，这表明一件作品可能需要史前人类的好几代人才能完成。)”可知，这幅岩画的创作耗费了漫长时间，是一项长期工程。故选A项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，文章既介绍了贺兰山岩画的历史文化价值，也重点提及岩画面临风化、雨水侵蚀等保护难题，以及工作人员通过实地调查、修建防洪坝、防护围栏等措施进行保护的努力，体现了“与时间赛跑拯救岩画”的核心，选项A最能概括全文主旨，适合作为标题。故选A项。 (七选五） Parents of school-aged children are all too familiar with the after-school conversation that goes like this: “How was your school?” “Fine.” “What did you learn?” “Nothing.” ____16____ Talking with children in the right way helps them understand the world, grow their vocabulary, build trust and learn how to use language properly. Believe it or not, these conversations can even influence how certain parts of a child’s brain develop. The list below details some ways parents can start language building conversations to improve children’s literacy and family relationships. ●Listen actively. ____17____ It includes making eye contact, stopping tasks at hand and repeating what they are saying, and what they may be feeling to make sure you understand. ●Ask open-ended questions. Try avoiding questions that can simply be answered with “yes”, “no” or “nothing”. Open-ended questions usually begin with words like “Why, how, describe…”, “Tell me about…”, or “What do you think about…”. ____18____ ●Try the “Strive-for-Five” framework. This conversational framework was developed by educators David Dickinson and Ann B. Morse. It aims to improve conversations by encouraging parents and educators to strive for five conversational turns with children. Instead of the usual three to help kids build language skills. To try this, continue the conversation by asking fun open-ended follow-up questions or sharing another thought. ____19____ ●Make conversations part of your daily life. If you find it difficult to actively listen and have purposeful conversations at certain times, plan them when it’s easier. ___20___ By using any or all of these suggestions, you can have more meaningful conversations. Not only will they help kids understand language better, but they’ll also make family relationships stronger. A. Don’t end it too soon. B. Show your kids how to be active listeners. C. Most children are too tired to talk after school. D. For example, talk while cooking, cleaning or reading together. E. These questions encourage children to think deeper and share more. F. Active listening means showing real interest in what kids want to share. G. But having quality conversations with kids is not just about learning how their school day goes. 【答案】16. G 17. F 18. E 19. A 20. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，就如何与孩子开展高质量对话给出具体建议。 【16题详解】 根据空前一句 “Parents of school-aged children are all too familiar with the after-school conversation that goes like this: “How was your school?” “Fine.” “What did you learn?” “Nothing.”(学龄儿童的父母对这样的课后对话再熟悉不过了：“今天在学校过得怎么样？”“挺好的。”“学到什么新知识了？”“啥也没学。”)”及空后一句“Talking with children in the right way helps them understand the world, grow their vocabulary, build trust and learn how to use language properly.(用正确的方式和孩子交谈，能帮助他们认识世界、扩充词汇量、建立信任并学会正确使用语言。)”可知，空前讨论了亲子间的无效对话；空后讨论了正确交谈的多重好处。故推知：第1空内容应起到转折过渡的作用，衔接“日常简单对话”与“高质量对话的深层意义”。选项G“But having quality conversations with kids is not just about learning how their school day goes.(但与孩子进行高质量的交谈，不仅仅是为了了解他们在学校的一天过得如何。)”符合原文内容。故选G。 【17题详解】 根据空前一句“Listen actively.(积极倾听。)”及空后一句 “It includes making eye contact, stopping tasks at hand and repeating what they are saying, and what they may be feeling to make sure you understand.(这包括进行眼神交流、停下手中的事情、复述孩子所说的话以及他们可能的感受，以确保你理解了。)”可知，空前提出“积极倾听”的方法；空后解释了积极倾听的具体行为。故推知：第2空内容应是对“积极倾听”下定义。选项F“Active listening means showing real interest in what kids want to share.(积极倾听意味着对孩子想要分享的内容表现出真正的兴趣。)”符合原文内容。故选F。 【18题详解】 根据空前一句 “Open-ended questions usually begin with words like “Why, how, describe…”, “Tell me about…”, or “What do you think about…”.(开放式问题通常以“为什么、怎样、描述一下……”“跟我讲讲……” 或 “你觉得…… 怎么样” 这类词汇开头。)”可知，空前讨论了开放式问题的特点。故推知：第3空内容应是说明开放式问题的作用。选项E“These questions encourage children to think deeper and share more.(这些问题能鼓励孩子更深入地思考并分享更多内容。)”符合原文内容。故选E。 【19题详解】 根据空前一句“To try this, continue the conversation by asking fun open-ended follow-up questions or sharing another thought.(要做到这一点，可以通过提出有趣的开放式后续问题或分享另一个想法来延续对话。)”及该段主旨句“Try the “Strive-for-Five” framework.(试试 “五轮对话” 沟通框架。)”可知，空前讨论了“努力达成五轮对话回合”的具体做法。故推知：第4空内容应是强调不要过早结束对话。选项A “Don’t end it too soon.(不要太早结束对话)”符合原文内容。故选A。 【20题详解】 根据空前文“Make conversations part of your daily life. If you find it difficult to actively listen and have purposeful conversations at certain times, plan them when it’s easier.(让交谈成为日常生活的一部分。如果你发现在某些时候很难做到积极倾听和有针对性的交谈，那就选择更容易的时机进行。)”可知，空前讨论了将对话融入日常的建议。故推知：第5空内容应是举例说明日常可交谈的场景。选项D“For example, talk while cooking, cleaning or reading together.(例如，在做饭、打扫卫生或一起阅读时交谈。)”符合原文内容。故选D。 二、完形填空（每小题1分，共15分） I never imagined that at 50, I would be caring for my husband Andrew, just 59, who was diagnosed with young-onset Alzheimer’s disease.

For a Chinese student, using chopsticks to eat is the most natural thing. But here, every time I ate in the cafeteria and skillfully picked up food with chopsticks, the foreign classmates around me always cast curious and slightly confused looks, and from time to time, there were whispers: “How do they do that?” At first, I would smile and briefly explain how to use chopsticks to them. But as the number of times increased, the sense of strangeness brought about by cultural differences gradually made me feel uncomfortable. Even for a moment, I hesitated to switch to a knife and fork to eat in order to fit in. During a group dinner, everyone sat around the restaurant. I habitually reached out for chopsticks. Jack, who was in the same group, saw this and exclaimed excitedly: “Hey, let’s see your magic with chopsticks!” As he spoke, he also picked up a pair of chopsticks and clumsily imitated. But before he could pick up anything, the chopsticks slipped from his hand. The other classmates laughed, and my face burned. I lowered my head to eat awkwardly, but my heart was in a mess. I realized that in their eyes, chopsticks were just a novel “performance prop (道具)”, and I, as a “foreigner” using chopsticks, seemed to have become an object of observation. After that, when facing others’ curiosity about chopsticks, I lost the initial enthusiasm to share and just casually smiled. I was afraid of this excessive attention, afraid that my cultural habits would become an “outsider label” in the eyes of others. I even began to deliberately reduce the number of times I used chopsticks in public, trying to make myself “fit in” with the local dining style. 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。 Until one day, the school held an international cultural festival. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I started to patiently explain how to hold chopsticks and what they symbolize. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Until one day, the school held an international cultural festival. Each country’s student union was required to set up a booth to showcase their own culture. Our Chinese student union decided to take chopsticks as the theme. At first, I was a little hesitant, but when I saw my classmates actively preparing, I was also infected by their enthusiasm. I thought, since chopsticks are an important part of Chinese culture, why not let more people know and understand them? I started to patiently explain how to hold chopsticks and what they symbolize. I told them that chopsticks represent the wisdom and philosophy of the Chinese people. They are not only a tool for eating, but also a cultural carrier. As I spoke, more and more people gathered around our booth. Some of them were curious, some were amazed, and some even tried to use chopsticks under my guidance. Looking at their serious expressions and the smiles on their faces, I felt a sense of pride and satisfaction. I realized that cultural differences are not a barrier, but a bridge. As long as we are willing to share and communicate, we can understand and respect each other’s cultures. 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了作者在加拿大留学时，因使用筷子吃饭被外国同学好奇围观，逐渐对筷子产生抵触，直到学校举办国际文化节。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①第一段首句“直到有一天，学校举办了国际文化节。”可续写作者在文化节上的经历，如决定以筷子为主题展示中国文化，开始时的犹豫，以及看到同学们积极准备后的转变。 ②第二段首句“我开始耐心地解释如何拿筷子以及它们象征着什么。”可续写作者在文化节上向外国同学介绍筷子的过程，同学们的反应，以及作者自己的感受和领悟。 2. 续写线索：学校举办国际文化节——中国学生以筷子为主题——作者犹豫后加入——作者介绍筷子——同学们的反应——作者的感受和领悟 3. 词汇激活： 行为类： ①展示：showcase/display ②影响：infect/affect ③聚集：gather/assemble 情绪类： ①热情：enthusiasm/passion/zeal ②满意：satisfaction/contentment 【点睛】[高分句型1] I thought, since chopsticks are an important part of Chinese culture, why not let more people know and understand them?
