Won’t fix your accent.(无法教授实用对话，也不能纠正口音。)”可知，多邻国最大的短板是无法纠正口音。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据表格HelloTalk栏目中的“VIP runs about $8/month.(会员每月收费8美元。)”可知，年费为96美元。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据表格Anki栏目中的“Digital flashcards that work. You make cards for words you want.(实用的数字抽认卡，可自行为需要记忆的单词制作卡片。)”可知，想要积累词汇的学习者最有可能选择Anki。 B In 2009, American composer Eric Whitacre got a wonderful idea. One day at home, he watched a fan’s video that surprised him deeply. A girl named Britlin was singing his composition Sleep alone in her bedroom with a simple web camera. It struck Whitacre that music could bridge the gap between people from different cultures. Thus the Virtual Choir (虚拟合唱团) was started. Whitacre posted a call online, asking people worldwide to record themselves singing the piece Lux Aurumque and send it to him. He had expected about 50 videos, but received 185 from 12 countries. His team spent much time editing the videos, and the final video was uploaded in 2010. It showed many singers on screen performing together from thousands of miles apart and soon went viral. The project grew rapidly. Later, over 2,000 singers from 58 countries submitted videos. A farmer in Nebraska sang alongside a student in Tokyo. Even though they had never met, they created beautiful and touching music together. Yet there were many challenges. Submissions were in different formats and sound quality varied greatly. Some failed to keep the beat, others had background noise. The team spent months producing and matching the videos patiently. Besides technical problems, singing alone in front of a camera also felt unnatural for many singers. “You have to imagine everyone else,” explained James Green. “You can’t hear them. You have to believe they’re there. It’s an act of faith.” In 2020, Whitacre organized and led the Virtual Choir’s biggest event, featuring over 17,000 singers from 129 countries. Its theme was “May we sing together, though we are apart.” Whitacre believes the project shows a basic human need. We all want to be part of something bigger and meaningful. The Virtual Choir uses modern technology to carry on the tradition of singing together and connects people worldwide through the power of music. 4. What inspired Eric Whitacre to create the Virtual Choir? A. A request from a famous singer. B. A pleasant talk with music lovers. C. A successful choir performance. D. A video of a girl singing his work. 5. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2? A. Whitacre undervalued public interest. B. Most singers came from Europe. C. Whitacre had done such projects before. D. The editing work was quite easy. 6. What were the key difficulties for the Virtual Choir? A. Technical trouble and personal discomfort. B. Lack of singers and poor internet. C. Language barriers and time zone differences. D. High costs and long editing time. 7. What does Whitacre stress in the last paragraph? A. The modern world offers more challenges to music fans. B. Technology helps an old practice continue in new forms. C. The Virtual Choir is a highly advanced musical invention. D. The Virtual Choir is more popular than the traditional ones. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了Eric Whitacre受女孩演唱视频启发创建虚拟合唱团的历程与意义。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“One day at home, he watched a fan’s video that surprised him deeply. A girl named Britlin was singing his composition Sleep alone in her bedroom with a simple web camera. It struck Whitacre that music could bridge the gap between people from different cultures.(有一天，在家里，他看了一段粉丝的视频，这让他大吃一惊。一个名叫Britlin的女孩在卧室里用一个简单的网络摄像头唱着他的作品《睡眠》。Whitacre突然意识到，音乐可以弥合不同文化背景的人之间的差距)”可知，一个女孩演唱他作品的视频激发了Whitacre创建虚拟合唱团的灵感。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“He had expected about 50 videos, but received 185 from 12 countries.(他原本预计收到约50个视频，但实际收到了来自12个国家的185个视频)”可知，实际收到的视频数量远超预期，说明Whitacre低估了公众的兴趣。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Submissions were in different formats and sound quality varied greatly. Some failed to keep the beat, others had background noise. The team spent months producing and matching the videos patiently. Besides technical problems, singing alone in front of a camera also felt unnatural for many singers.(提交的文件格式不同，音质差异很大。有些没有跟上节奏，有些有背景噪音。该团队花了几个月的时间耐心地制作和匹配视频。除了技术问题，许多歌手在镜头前独自唱歌也感觉不自然)”可知，主要困难包括技术问题和个人不适感。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The Virtual Choir uses modern technology to carry on the tradition of singing together and connects people worldwide through the power of music.(虚拟合唱团利用现代技术延续了一起唱歌的传统，并通过音乐的力量连接了全世界的人们)”可知，Whitacre强调的是技术帮助古老的合唱传统以新形式延续。 C Nothing says “proud homeowner” like a clean, green lawn. A clean lawn shows your care and earns your neighbors’ admiration. Every autumn, millions of homeowners reach for their garden tools. They gather fallen leaves, bag them, and send them away. However, this tidy appearance comes at a cost. A growing movement of environmentalists suggests we simply leave the leaves instead of sending them to landfills. If leaves are buried in landfills, they break down without oxygen and give off harmful greenhouse gases, contributing to global warming. In fact, yard waste makes up about 13% of what we throw away. Some people burn leaf piles instead. But this releases harmful chemicals into the air and creates fire risks, especially in dry conditions. So what happens when we leave the leaves? The benefits are significant. Leaf litter shelters insects, spiders and other small creatures, offering critical winter habitats for many species as noted by the Xerces Society. The National Wildlife Federation’s “Leave the Leaves” program adds that butterflies, bees and other insects rely on fallen leaves for protection. Leaves are also natural plant food. As they break down, they release nutrients into the soil. This helps grass stay green and healthy without chemical products. Many universities recommend cutting leaves into small pieces with a lawn mower (割草机) and leaving them on the grass rather than removing them. This autumn, consider seeing your leaves differently. They are not trash to remove but a resource to keep. Move them into garden beds. Run over them with a mower to break them into small pieces. Let them accumulate in quiet corners of your yard. These simple actions reduce pollution, support wildlife, and nourish (滋养) your soil. Sometimes the best thing we can do for the planet is also the easiest: just leave the leaves. 8. What do homeowners generally think of a clean lawn? A. It increases workload. B. It is good for wildlife. C. It needs deep thinking. D. It is a source of pride. 9. What problem do leaves in landfills cause? A. They produce greenhouse gases. B. They start big fires easily. C. They hurt small insects in the soil. D. They pollute soil directly. 10. What is a benefit of leaf litter? A. It makes grass clean. B. It offers wildlife shelter. C. It reduces yard waste. D. It kills harmful chemicals. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. A Threat Posed by Burning Leaves. B. A Smart Guide to A Clean Lawn. C. The Hidden Gifts of Autumn Leaves. D. The Importance of Garden Wildlife. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了落叶不应被丢弃或焚烧，留在院中能滋养土壤、保护野生动物、减少污染。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Nothing says “proud homeowner” like a clean, green lawn. A clean lawn shows your care and earns your neighbors’ admiration.(没有什么比干净的绿草坪更能说明“自豪的房主”了。干净的草坪展示你的用心并赢得邻居的赞赏)”可知，房主通常认为干净的草坪是骄傲的来源。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“If leaves are buried in landfills, they break down without oxygen and give off harmful greenhouse gases, contributing to global warming.(如果树叶被埋在垃圾填埋场，它们会在缺氧条件下分解并释放有害的温室气体，导致全球变暖)”可知，填埋场中的树叶会产生温室气体。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Leaf litter shelters insects, spiders and other small creatures, offering critical winter habitats for many species as noted by the Xerces Society.(落叶层为昆虫、蜘蛛和其他小生物提供了庇护所，正如Xerces协会所指出的那样，为许多物种提供了关键的冬季栖息地)”可知，落叶的好处是为野生动物提供庇护所。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容可知，文章首先指出人们习惯清理落叶，然后分析丢弃和焚烧落叶的危害，接着介绍保留落叶的三大好处：保护野生动物、滋养土壤、减少污染，最后呼吁人们重新看待落叶。所以C项“秋天落叶的隐藏礼物”最能概括全文主旨，适合作本文的标题。 D When disaster strikes, such as an earthquake, building collapse or fire, every second counts. But entering dangerous places means risking lives. Scientists are developing humanoid (类人的) robots for rescue. In Europe, the WALK-MAN project creates a robot that can walk over debris, twisted metal, and fallen walls left after earthquakes or building collapses. It can also open doors and use tools. What makes WALK-MAN special is its advanced perception system, which allows it to see, feel, and keep balance where humans would struggle. In Singapore, HTX is pushing humanoid robotics further. By mid-2027, these robots will work alongside emergency responders. Standing 1.7 metres tall, they are built for firefighting, handling dangerous materials, and search-and-rescue. Controlled remotely at first, they are expected to operate on their own by 2029. In China, researchers are making rapid progress in humanoid robotics for disaster response. These robots are designed to work in teams, with some carrying sensors to detect trapped victims while others clear paths through rubble (瓦砾). What makes these robots truly useful is their ability to use human tools. Unlike wheeled robots that get stuck on stairs, humanoid robots can climb, open doors, and operate equipment made for people. They carry sensors that detect body heat, listen for voices, and map unfamiliar spaces in real time. Yet the challenges remain significant. Power supply is a major limitation. Most humanoid robots can only operate for one to two hours before needing to recharge, which is far from enough in large-scale disasters. Communication networks often fail in disaster zones, cutting off the connection between robots and their human operators. When that happens, robots must rely on their own artificial intelligence to make decisions, but programming a machine to keep its balance on shifting rubble while searching for victims is enormously complex. Despite these difficulties, researchers worldwide are making steady progress, driven by a single goal: to reach the unreachable and save lives where humans cannot go. 12. What does the underlined word “debris” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Large rescue machines. B. Dangerous chemicals. C. Broken building pieces. D. Open building spaces. 13. What advantage do humanoid robots have over wheeled robots? A. They can work long without charging. B. They are easy to mass-produce. C. They have sensors to detect disasters. D. They can operate human tools. 14. What is the major challenge mentioned about humanoid robots? A. They cut off AI assistance. B. They have limited battery life. C. They fail to work intelligently. D. They lack ability to keep balance. 15. What is the main purpose of the text? A. To compare robots from different countries. B. To explain how humanoid robots are built. C. To argue that robots should replace humans. D. To introduce robots that help in disasters. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了科学家正在研发类人救援机器人，介绍了各国进展、优势及面临的挑战。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“In Europe, the WALK-MAN project creates a robot that can walk over debris, twisted metal, and fallen walls left after earthquakes or building collapses.（在欧洲，WALK-MAN项目创造了一种机器人，可以在地震或建筑倒塌后留下的debris、扭曲的金属和倒塌的墙壁上行走)”可知，debris与“twisted metal”和“fallen walls”并列，都是地震或建筑倒塌后的残留物，即“破碎的建筑碎片”。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“What makes these robots truly useful is their ability to use human tools. Unlike wheeled robots that get stuck on stairs, humanoid robots can climb, open doors, and operate equipment made for people.(这些机器人真正有用的是它们能使用人类工具。不像轮式机器人会卡在楼梯上，类人机器人能爬楼梯、开门、操作为人类设计的设备)”可知，类人机器人相比轮式机器人的优势是能操作人类工具。故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Power supply is a major limitation. Most humanoid robots can only operate for one to two hours before needing to recharge, which is far from enough in large-scale disasters.(电源是一个主要的限制因素。大多数人形机器人在需要充电之前只能运行一到两个小时，这在大规模灾难中远远不够)”可知，主要挑战是电池续航时间有限。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“Scientists are developing humanoid robots for rescue.(科学家正在研发类人救援机器人)”以及全文分别介绍了欧洲、新加坡、中国的救援机器人进展、优势和挑战可知，文章主要目的是介绍用于灾难救援的机器人。故选D。 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Getting into the right mindset for serious studying can be difficult.

Coming from a quiet small town far away, he was extremely shy and quiet, always sitting silently at the back of the classroom. He never participated in any group activities, and even when the teacher asked him simple questions, he would lower his head shyly and reply in a low voice. But during the art class, Jake, the most lively and playful boy in their class, secretly glanced at Leo’s painting and couldn’t hide the surprise on his face. One day, Ms. White, their art teacher, announced a city-wide art competition, calling on students to create paintings that could reveal their innermost dreams and true emotions. While other students chatted happily and actively shared their creative ideas, Leo sat all alone in his seat, staring blankly at his blank canvas (画布), looking lost and discouraged. Ms. White walked over and knelt beside him, saying gently, “Everyone has a unique voice in art and yours is just waiting to be heard.” Leo looked up at her for the first time, his eyes full of doubt but also a faint spark of hope. She stayed with him patiently, asking about his beautiful hometown and his hidden hobbies, and little by little, Leo began to open up his heart. With her encouragement, Leo finished his painting and submitted it to the teacher after class, never expecting anyone to notice. A month later, as soon as classes ended, Jake rushed over to Leo with a bright grin. “Come on, let’s go to the notice board. The result of the art competition is due out today!” he said excitedly. Leo shook his head and whispered, “I’m not going. It has nothing to do with me anyway.” Moments later, loud, excited cheers came from the hallway. 注意： 1．续写词数为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Jake dashed back and announced the good news. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Everyone soon found Leo’s gradual change. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Jake dashed back and announced the good news. “Leo, you won first place!” he shouted, his voice full of excitement. Leo’s eyes widened in disbelief. He shook his head slightly, thinking it must be a mistake. But Jake grabbed his arm and pulled him toward the hallway. There, on the notice board, was Leo’s painting, a peaceful village with starry skies and children laughing. Ms. White stood nearby, smiling proudly. “I knew you could do it,” she said softly. For the first time, Leo felt seen. A shy smile appeared on his face as classmates gathered around, offering their congratulations. Everyone soon found Leo’s gradual change. He began to speak more in class, his voice no longer a whisper but clear and steady. He joined group activities and even helped other students with their art projects. Jake became his close friend, and together they painted pictures on the classroom wall. Leo no longer sat at the back alone. He had found his voice, not through words alone, but through colors and brushes. Ms. White’s words had planted a seed, and now Leo was finally blooming. Sometimes a single act of kindness is all it takes to help a quiet heart find its way. 【解析】 【导语】本文以莱奥的转变为线索展开，讲述了转学到新高中的莱奥害羞内向、沉默寡言，不愿与人交流，在美术课上被杰克发现有绘画天赋，在美术老师的鼓励下参加城市艺术比赛，意外获得一等奖，之后逐渐变得开朗自信，主动融入集体，找到自我价值的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段写杰克跑回来告知莱奥获得一等奖的好消息，莱奥难以置信，被杰克拉去看公告栏，得到老师和同学们的祝贺，第一次感受到被认可。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段写莱奥逐渐发生变化，课堂上说话更多、声音更响亮，主动参加集体活动，和杰克成为好朋友，凭借绘画找到自我，彻底摆脱内向。 2. 续写线索：告知获奖消息——莱奥震惊——查看公告——获得祝贺——逐渐改变——主动交流——结交朋友——找到自我 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①抓：grab/seize/grasp ②帮助：help/aid 情绪类 ①兴奋：excitement/thrill ②害羞：shy/timid 【点睛】[高分句型1] Ms. White stood nearby, smiling proudly.（运用了现在分词短语作状语） [高分句型2] He had found his voice, not through words alone, but through colors and brushes.（运用了not...but...连接并列结构） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高一下学期第二次校内质量检测 英语试题 注意事项： 1．答题前，考生须在试题卷、答题卡规定的位置填写自己的准考证号、姓名。考生应认真核对答题卡上粘贴的条形码的“准考证号、姓名”与考生本人准考证号、姓名是否一致。 2．回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3．考试结束，考生须将答题卡交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题纸上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。 1.

One day at home, he watched a fan’s video that surprised him deeply. A girl named Britlin was singing his composition Sleep alone in her bedroom with a simple web camera. It struck Whitacre that music could bridge the gap between people from different cultures. Thus the Virtual Choir (虚拟合唱团) was started. Whitacre posted a call online, asking people worldwide to record themselves singing the piece Lux Aurumque and send it to him. He had expected about 50 videos, but received 185 from 12 countries. His team spent much time editing the videos, and the final video was uploaded in 2010. It showed many singers on screen performing together from thousands of miles apart and soon went viral. The project grew rapidly. Later, over 2,000 singers from 58 countries submitted videos. A farmer in Nebraska sang alongside a student in Tokyo. Even though they had never met, they created beautiful and touching music together. Yet there were many challenges. Submissions were in different formats and sound quality varied greatly. Some failed to keep the beat, others had background noise. The team spent months producing and matching the videos patiently. Besides technical problems, singing alone in front of a camera also felt unnatural for many singers. “You have to imagine everyone else,” explained James Green. “You can’t hear them. You have to believe they’re there. It’s an act of faith.” In 2020, Whitacre organized and led the Virtual Choir’s biggest event, featuring over 17,000 singers from 129 countries. Its theme was “May we sing together, though we are apart.” Whitacre believes the project shows a basic human need. We all want to be part of something bigger and meaningful. The Virtual Choir uses modern technology to carry on the tradition of singing together and connects people worldwide through the power of music. 4. What inspired Eric Whitacre to create the Virtual Choir? A. A request from a famous singer. B. A pleasant talk with music lovers. C. A successful choir performance. D. A video of a girl singing his work. 5. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2? A. Whitacre undervalued public interest. B. Most singers came from Europe. C. Whitacre had done such projects before. D. The editing work was quite easy. 6. What were the key difficulties for the Virtual Choir? A. Technical trouble and personal discomfort. B. Lack of singers and poor internet. C. Language barriers and time zone differences. D. High costs and long editing time. 7. What does Whitacre stress in the last paragraph? A. The modern world offers more challenges to music fans. B. Technology helps an old practice continue in new forms. C. The Virtual Choir is a highly advanced musical invention. D. The Virtual Choir is more popular than the traditional ones. C Nothing says “proud homeowner” like a clean, green lawn. A clean lawn shows your care and earns your neighbors’ admiration. Every autumn, millions of homeowners reach for their garden tools. They gather fallen leaves, bag them, and send them away. However, this tidy appearance comes at a cost. A growing movement of environmentalists suggests we simply leave the leaves instead of sending them to landfills. If leaves are buried in landfills, they break down without oxygen and give off harmful greenhouse gases, contributing to global warming. In fact, yard waste makes up about 13% of what we throw away. Some people burn leaf piles instead. But this releases harmful chemicals into the air and creates fire risks, especially in dry conditions. So what happens when we leave the leaves? The benefits are significant. Leaf litter shelters insects, spiders and other small creatures, offering critical winter habitats for many species as noted by the Xerces Society. The National Wildlife Federation’s “Leave the Leaves” program adds that butterflies, bees and other insects rely on fallen leaves for protection. Leaves are also natural plant food. As they break down, they release nutrients into the soil. This helps grass stay green and healthy without chemical products. Many universities recommend cutting leaves into small pieces with a lawn mower (割草机) and leaving them on the grass rather than removing them. This autumn, consider seeing your leaves differently. They are not trash to remove but a resource to keep. Move them into garden beds. Run over them with a mower to break them into small pieces. Let them accumulate in quiet corners of your yard. These simple actions reduce pollution, support wildlife, and nourish (滋养) your soil. Sometimes the best thing we can do for the planet is also the easiest: just leave the leaves. 8. What do homeowners generally think of a clean lawn? A. It increases workload. B. It is good for wildlife. C. It needs deep thinking. D. It is a source of pride. 9. What problem do leaves in landfills cause? A. They produce greenhouse gases. B. They start big fires easily. C. They hurt small insects in the soil. D. They pollute soil directly. 10. What is a benefit of leaf litter? A. It makes grass clean. B. It offers wildlife shelter. C. It reduces yard waste. D. It kills harmful chemicals. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. A Threat Posed by Burning Leaves. B. A Smart Guide to A Clean Lawn. C. The Hidden Gifts of Autumn Leaves. D. The Importance of Garden Wildlife. D When disaster strikes, such as an earthquake, building collapse or fire, every second counts. But entering dangerous places means risking lives. Scientists are developing humanoid (类人的) robots for rescue. In Europe, the WALK-MAN project creates a robot that can walk over debris, twisted metal, and fallen walls left after earthquakes or building collapses. It can also open doors and use tools. What makes WALK-MAN special is its advanced perception system, which allows it to see, feel, and keep balance where humans would struggle. In Singapore, HTX is pushing humanoid robotics further. By mid-2027, these robots will work alongside emergency responders. Standing 1.7 metres tall, they are built for firefighting, handling dangerous materials, and search-and-rescue. Controlled remotely at first, they are expected to operate on their own by 2029. In China, researchers are making rapid progress in humanoid robotics for disaster response. These robots are designed to work in teams, with some carrying sensors to detect trapped victims while others clear paths through rubble (瓦砾). What makes these robots truly useful is their ability to use human tools. Unlike wheeled robots that get stuck on stairs, humanoid robots can climb, open doors, and operate equipment made for people. They carry sensors that detect body heat, listen for voices, and map unfamiliar spaces in real time. Yet the challenges remain significant. Power supply is a major limitation. Most humanoid robots can only operate for one to two hours before needing to recharge, which is far from enough in large-scale disasters. Communication networks often fail in disaster zones, cutting off the connection between robots and their human operators. When that happens, robots must rely on their own artificial intelligence to make decisions, but programming a machine to keep its balance on shifting rubble while searching for victims is enormously complex. Despite these difficulties, researchers worldwide are making steady progress, driven by a single goal: to reach the unreachable and save lives where humans cannot go. 12. What does the underlined word “debris” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Large rescue machines. B. Dangerous chemicals. C. Broken building pieces. D. Open building spaces. 13. What advantage do humanoid robots have over wheeled robots? A. They can work long without charging. B. They are easy to mass-produce. C. They have sensors to detect disasters. D. They can operate human tools. 14. What is the major challenge mentioned about humanoid robots? A. They cut off AI assistance. B. They have limited battery life. C. They fail to work intelligently. D. They lack ability to keep balance. 15. What is the main purpose of the text? A. To compare robots from different countries. B. To explain how humanoid robots are built. C. To argue that robots should replace humans. D. To introduce robots that help in disasters. 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Getting into the right mindset for serious studying can be difficult.

Coming from a quiet small town far away, he was extremely shy and quiet, always sitting silently at the back of the classroom. He never participated in any group activities, and even when the teacher asked him simple questions, he would lower his head shyly and reply in a low voice. But during the art class, Jake, the most lively and playful boy in their class, secretly glanced at Leo’s painting and couldn’t hide the surprise on his face. One day, Ms. White, their art teacher, announced a city-wide art competition, calling on students to create paintings that could reveal their innermost dreams and true emotions. While other students chatted happily and actively shared their creative ideas, Leo sat all alone in his seat, staring blankly at his blank canvas (画布), looking lost and discouraged. Ms. White walked over and knelt beside him, saying gently, “Everyone has a unique voice in art and yours is just waiting to be heard.” Leo looked up at her for the first time, his eyes full of doubt but also a faint spark of hope. She stayed with him patiently, asking about his beautiful hometown and his hidden hobbies, and little by little, Leo began to open up his heart. With her encouragement, Leo finished his painting and submitted it to the teacher after class, never expecting anyone to notice. A month later, as soon as classes ended, Jake rushed over to Leo with a bright grin. “Come on, let’s go to the notice board. The result of the art competition is due out today!” he said excitedly. Leo shook his head and whispered, “I’m not going. It has nothing to do with me anyway.” Moments later, loud, excited cheers came from the hallway. 注意： 1．续写词数为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Jake dashed back and announced the good news. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Everyone soon found Leo’s gradual change. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
