Try one or more of these plant experiments for fun and learning. Colour carnations. Fill a glass with water and colour the water. Add a white carnation stalk (茎) and watch the plant become colourful as it “drinks” the coloured water. This is a great, short experiment to show how plants absorb water. Plant root vegetables. Find out how root vegetables form underground by planting root vegetables in a clear container. First, fill the bottom of the container with small stones. Next, add potting soil and plant root vegetable seeds, trying carrots or onions, evenly. Keep the soil wet and enjoy watching the root form. Best of all, when the vegetable is done growing, you can eat it! Study speedy sunflowers. Sunflower seeds sprout (发芽) and grow quickly, making this the perfect flower for impatient children. These seeds can be started just about anywhere, even in a paper coffee cup or yogurt container. Kids love seeing the plant push its way out of the soil, wearing the seed’s outer part like a hat!Move your plant to a flower pot after it sprouts to observe the flower as it forms. Make a grass basket. Grass is another seed that grows quickly. Make a living basket by lining a basket with plastic and filling it with potting soil. Put grass seeds on top and water them lightly every day. Growing plants is a great way to bring some learning — and a little sunshine — to your daily life. Try any of these inexpensive garden experiments for a fun project this spring. 1. Which garden experiment will you choose to see how plants take in water? A. Colour carnations. B. Make a grass basket. C. Plant root vegetables. D. Study speedy sunflowers. 2. What is special about the experiment of “plant root vegetables”? A. It is convenient to carry on. B. It is perfect for impatient kids. C. It has strict requirements for temperature. D. It offers you the tasty fruit of your labour. 3. What do sunflowers and grass have in common? A. They both like shade. B. They both need little water. C. They both grow very quickly. D. They both prefer clear containers. B It was a cold Saturday night in February. Some 200 New Yorkers carefully made their way to the reservoir (水库) in the hopes of catching a glimpse of the magical snowy owl, who had touched down in the park the week before in what was reported as the first visit there by the species in more than 130 years. Except for a few excited screams from children, people were quiet — patiently awaiting the owl’s arrival at the reservoir’s north gatehouse. The snowy owl did not disappoint. She flew down from the darkness and surveyed the water and the people holding phones and cameras before taking off into the night to the applause of her many fans. They simply wanted to see this lovely creature whose improbable appearance seemed to signify hope after the lockdown — or at least an excuse to leave their apartments and take part, however briefly, in one of those precious shared moments. New Yorkers who had long taken Central Park for granted felt a renewed love for this rectangle of green in the heart of the big city and, of course, its amazing wildlife. That the park is a beautiful and essential place for peace and joy is something that humans have only come to fully appreciate during these recent times of uncertainty. Central Park was originally planned and constructed during another difficult time in the nation’s history — in the years before and during the American Civil War. Unlike many European parks that had originally been built for the aristocracy (贵族), Central Park was designed as a public space. In its chief architect Frederick Law Olmsted’s words, the poor and rich alike could “easily go there after their day’s work is done” and “stroll for an hour, seeing, hearing, and feeling nothing of the noise of the streets.” As spring turns into summer, we see people sitting on the grass or benches — catching some sun, having family picnics, or tapping away on their laptops and iPads. Just being in proximity to other people in Central Park gave us a sense of community — the sense that we would somehow persevere. 4. What did people do in Central Park on that Saturday night? A. They cheered for each other. B. They paid their first visit. C. They came for a rare sight. D. They appreciated a water event. 5. Why did New Yorkers find a renewed love for Central Park? A. Because it offers much-needed shelter. B. Because it is conveniently located. C. Because people like its wildlife. D. Because people are long used to it. 6. What does the author mainly intend to do in Paragraph 4? A. Introduce a new opinion. B. Add background information. C. Give some examples. D. Make a comparison. 7. What do the underlined words “in proximity to” in Paragraph 5 mean? A. Close to B. In comparison with C. At a distance from D. Free from C To the dynamic beat of Aretha Franklin’s songs, families sit in the crowd at the hall of the Manilla School. They are waiting, eager for the moment when students will participate in a one-of-a-kind program called Spark. The meeting will pair students with volunteer apprentice (学徒) teachers. Lawyers, hair stylists, and software developers will meet up with students who have selected their occupations as the ones they would most like to learn about. Spark apprenticeships provide workplace experiences that bring economically disadvantaged teens into contact with a world they have probably only imagined. Nationally, some 30 percent of US high school students drop out. While improved curricula (课程), better teaching, and modern equipment may be part of the solution, “you have to have the relevance,” says Mr. Balme of his six-year-old Spark program. The gap between those worlds — one of limited expectations and hardship, the other of success and prosperity — hit Balme one day when he was volunteering as a science teacher at a public school in Philadelphia. He was also studying at the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania. The public school was in bad shape, with a high dropout rate. While walking back to Wharton, Balme realized he was “seeing all the resources, and yet these kids had no idea what was right there all around them.” That’s when everything fell into place. The problem and the solution were right next to each other. In 2004, he and Melia Dicker founded Spark. Apprenticeships are “not rocket science,” says Holly Depatie, Spark board chair. But other coaching programs, such as Boys and Girls Clubs of America, while pairing youngsters with adults, don’t specifically target learning about jobs. So far, Spark has created more than 700 apprenticeships in the San Francisco Bay Area and Los Angeles. 8. How does Spark help the students? A. By offering hands-on experiences. B. By updating teaching equipment. C. By financing young apprentices. D. By improving school curricula. 9. What is the major drive for Balme to set up Spark? A. The dropout rate of US high schools. B. The prosperity in famous universities. C. The expectation of disadvantaged teens. D. The imbalance in educational resources. 10. Which word best describes Balme? A. Tolerant. B. Grateful. C. Observant. D. Modest. 11. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph? A. To justify similar programs. B. To tackle Spark’s challenge. C. To show Spark’s difference. D. To criticize current situations. D The term sponge (海绵) city might bring to mind a creative image of a city made of sponges, but actual definition of sponge cities isn’t as literal as it seems. Sponge city is a term that originated in China to describe urban spaces that are re-designed with areas for greenery. They absorb storm-water the way a sponge takes up excess water! These areas deals wit flooding naturally by replacing impermeable roads with permeable (透水的) green spaces. These “sponges” cool cities, cleanse air pollution and remove dirt from storm-water before they enter our drinking water sources. Several tools and technologies can be adopted in a sponge city. Employing sustainable methods like covering walls and roofs with plants is one method. Another technique uses layers of permeable soil covered by greenery that traps rainwater and run-off. These and other concepts are used throughout the world under different names like green infrastructure (基建), low-impact development, and sensitive urban design. The approach, regardless of the name, focuses on controlling flooding and water pollution. Many cities around the world are suffering from flood events. In recent years, 60% of China’s large-sized cities have flooded—killing hundreds and displacing more than a million people. Flooding has increased because of the overuse of concrete surfaces, called “gray infrastructure”. Landscape architects realized the need to make cities more “spongy” by working with their local climate and natural features to design appropriate solutions. In Philadelphia, a project called “Green City, Clean Waters” was developed after the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) enforced the federal Clean Water Act there in 2011. To date, the city has “greened” at least 2,200 acres of land and used a mix of solutions like rain gardens, restoring wetlands, and green infrastructure in their plan. However, implementing sponge plans is often difficult because policymakers often need to be convinced to enact them. Despite this, cities around the world are thriving after the use of the Sponge City approach. 12. What is the primary goal of the sponge city design? A. To preserve biodiversity. B. To fight against flooding. C. To gather more rainwater. D. To improve living standard. 13. What can be learned about a sponge city? A. It is made of eco-friendly sponge materials. B. It is a new kind of city only existing in China. C. It manages rainwater by increasing permeable spaces. D. It requires the complete removal of traditional buildings. 14. Why does the author mention Philadelphia? A. To introduce the origin of the sponge city concept. B. To emphasize the importance of the Clean Water Act. C. To give an example of an effective sponge city project. D. To explain the difficulties in carrying out sponge plans. 15. Which might be the best title for the text? A. Development of the Term “Sponge City”. B. Sustainable Urban Planning Strategies. C. Shortcomings of Gray Urban Infrastructure. D. Benefit and Success of Sponge City Plans. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） How to Stay Safe During a Typhoon When a typhoon strikes, the world outside can change from calm to dangerous in just a few minutes. The sky darkens, the wind grows wild, and heavy rain begins to fall with great force. ____16____ But staying calm and taking the right actions can make a big difference.

As she passed by a small park, she heard a weak cry coming from the bushes. Curious, she went over to have a look. To her surprise, she found a tiny kitten with its left paw injured. The kitten looked so helpless and its eyes were filled with fear. Lucy couldn’t leave the poor kitten there. She carefully picked it up and decided to take it home. When she got home, her mother was shocked at first. “Lucy, we can’t keep it,” her mother said. “You know your father is allergic to cats.” Lucy felt sad but she didn’t want to give up the kitten. She begged her mother, “Mom, please! We can find a way. The kitten is badly hurt. It needs our help.” Her mother looked at the (可怜的) kitten and then at Lucy’s pleading eyes. Finally, she said, “Well, we can keep it for a while until it gets better, but then we have to find a new home for it.” With her mother’s permission, Lucy was very excited. She quickly found a box and made a warm bed for the kitten. Then she took out some milk and bread for it. The kitten ate a little and soon fell asleep. Lucy named the kitten Mimi and started to take good care of it every day. She cleaned its wound carefully and fed it on time. Paragraph 1: A week later, Mimi got much better and became more active. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Just as Lucy’s mother said, they began to look for a new family for Mimi. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 绝密★启用前 浏阳市第一中学高一下学期期中考试试题 英 语 满分150分，考试时间120分钟 注意事项： 1．答题前填写好自己的姓名、班级、考号等信息 2．请将答案正确填写在答题卡上 第二部分 阅读 (共两节，满分 50 分) 第一节（共15小题：每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳答案。 A Now it’s the perfect time to teach kids about growing things.

In recent years, 60% of China’s large-sized cities have flooded—killing hundreds and displacing more than a million people. Flooding has increased because of the overuse of concrete surfaces, called “gray infrastructure”. Landscape architects realized the need to make cities more “spongy” by working with their local climate and natural features to design appropriate solutions. In Philadelphia, a project called “Green City, Clean Waters” was developed after the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) enforced the federal Clean Water Act there in 2011. To date, the city has “greened” at least 2,200 acres of land and used a mix of solutions like rain gardens, restoring wetlands, and green infrastructure in their plan. However, implementing sponge plans is often difficult because policymakers often need to be convinced to enact them. Despite this, cities around the world are thriving after the use of the Sponge City approach. 12. What is the primary goal of the sponge city design? A. To preserve biodiversity. B. To fight against flooding. C. To gather more rainwater. D. To improve living standard. 13. What can be learned about a sponge city? A. It is made of eco-friendly sponge materials. B. It is a new kind of city only existing in China. C. It manages rainwater by increasing permeable spaces. D. It requires the complete removal of traditional buildings. 14. Why does the author mention Philadelphia? A. To introduce the origin of the sponge city concept. B. To emphasize the importance of the Clean Water Act. C. To give an example of an effective sponge city project. D. To explain the difficulties in carrying out sponge plans. 15. Which might be the best title for the text? A. Development of the Term “Sponge City”. B. Sustainable Urban Planning Strategies. C. Shortcomings of Gray Urban Infrastructure. D. Benefit and Success of Sponge City Plans. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. C 15.

These “sponges” cool cities, cleanse air pollution and remove dirt from storm-water before they enter our drinking water sources.(海绵城市是一个起源于中国的术语，用来描述城市空间被重新设计成绿色区域。它们吸收雨水的方式就像海绵吸收多余的水一样！这些地区通过用可渗透的绿地取代不透水的道路，自然地应对洪水。这些“海绵”给城市降温，净化空气污染，在雨水进入我们的饮用水源之前清除它们)”以及第三段“These and other concepts are used throughout the world under different names like green infrastructure (基建), low-impact development, and sensitive urban design. The approach, regardless of the name, focuses on controlling flooding and water pollution.(这些概念和其他概念在世界各地以不同的名称使用，如绿色基础设施、低影响发展和敏感的城市设计。不管名字是什么，这种方法的重点是控制洪水和水污染)”可知，海绵城市设计的首要目标是对抗洪水。故选B项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Sponge city is a term that originated in China to describe urban spaces that are re-designed with areas for greenery.

The sky darkens, the wind grows wild, and heavy rain begins to fall with great force. ____16____ But staying calm and taking the right actions can make a big difference. Stay indoors and keep away from windows. During a typhoon, the safest place is always indoors. Once the storm begins, do not go outside, not even for a short look. Close all windows and doors tightly, and stay away from glass, which may break when hit by strong wind or flying objects. ____17____ Waiting indoors may feel long and boring, but it protects you from real danger outside. Be mindful of electricity and stay alert (警觉的). Strong wind and rain can be dangerous with electricity. If water begins to enter your home, turn off the main power in no time. Avoid touching wet plugs, wires, or electrical devices. Listen carefully to what’s happening around you. Sometimes a strange sound or sudden silence can mean trouble is near. ____18____ Follow official warnings and remain patient. ____19____ Follow the advice of local governments, even if the weather seems calmer for a moment. If the sky suddenly becomes calm, don’t be fooled — it is the “eye” of the typhoon that passes by. The wind can return even harder than before. So you should stay patient and wait for official news. ____20____ No one can stop the storm, but you can control how you face it. Take deep breaths, speak gently, and try to calm those around you. Help children, the elderly, or neighbors who might be alone. Courage grows when people care for each other. Kindness stands even in the strongest wind. A. The worst of the storm may be over. B. It is normal to feel fear at such a moment. C. A typhoon can change direction or strength at any time. D. Stay calm and support each other. E. You need to learn to fix the electricity by yourself. F. If you live high up, this rule is especially important. G. During a typhoon, attention saves more than strength does. 【答案】16. B 17. F 18. G 19. C 20. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了台风期间的安全防护措施。 【16题详解】 上文“The sky darkens, the wind grows wild, and heavy rain begins to fall with great force. (天空变暗，狂风大作，暴雨猛烈袭来)”描述了台风天的危险景象，下文“But staying calm and taking the right actions can make a big difference. (但保持冷静并采取正确行动会有很大作用)”以转折引出应对方法。选项B“在这种时刻感到恐惧是正常的”承接上文的危险场景，解释了人们的情绪反应，同时衔接下文“保持冷静”的建议，符合语境。故选B。 【17题详解】 上文“Close all windows and doors tightly, and stay away from glass, which may break when hit by strong wind or flying objects. (紧闭门窗，远离玻璃，以免玻璃被强风或飞行物击中而破裂)”强调了室内避险的要点，且提到“远离玻璃”的原因。选项F“如果你住在高层，这条规则尤为重要”进一步补充了“远离门窗/玻璃”的适用场景(高层更易受狂风影响)，符合语境。故选F。 【18题详解】 根据上文“Strong wind and rain can be dangerous with electricity. If water begins to enter your home, turn off the main power in no time. Avoid touching wet plugs, wires, or electrical devices. Listen carefully to what’s happening around you. Sometimes a strange sound or sudden silence can mean trouble is near.(强风和暴雨与电接触在一起可能会非常危险。如果水开始渗入您的房屋，请立即切断主电源。避免触碰潮湿的插头、电线或电器设备。仔细留意周围发生的情况。有时一种奇怪的声音或突然的寂静可能意味着危险即将来临)”可知，本段强调stay alert（保持警觉）、留意异常声音，说明专心、警惕很重要。故G选项“在台风期间，集中注意力比体力更重要”符合语境，故选G。 【19题详解】 根据后文“Follow the advice of local governments, even if the weather seems calmer for a moment. If the sky suddenly becomes calm, don’t be fooled — it is the “eye” of the typhoon that passes by. The wind can return even harder than before. So you should stay patient and wait for official news.(遵循当地政府的建议吧，即便此刻天气看似暂时平静下来。如果天空突然变得平静下来，也不要被迷惑——那其实是台风经过时留下的“台风眼”。风力可能会比之前更猛烈。所以你应该保持耐心，等待官方消息)”可知，后句提到即使暂时平静，也可能是台风眼，风会再次变强，对应台风随时会变化。故C选项“台风随时都可能改变方向或强度”符合语境，故选C。 【20题详解】 根据后文“No one can stop the storm, but you can control how you face it. Take deep breaths, speak gently, and try to calm those around you. Help children, the elderly, or neighbors who might be alone. Courage grows when people care for each other. Kindness stands even in the strongest wind.(没有人能阻止风暴的到来，但你可以控制自己面对风暴的方式。深呼吸，语气温和，努力让周围的人也保持冷静。帮助孩子、老人或者可能独自一人的邻居。当人们相互关爱时，勇气就会增长。善良即使在最猛烈的风暴中也能存在)”可知，本段讲calm、help others、care for each other，对应“保持冷静、互相帮助”。故D选项“保持冷静，并相互支持”符合语境，故选D。 第三部分 语言运用 (共两节，满分 30 分) 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） Tom is one of many regular customers at his local coffee shop.

Regarded 43. who 44. includes 45. laughing 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇书评，主要介绍了杰夫·金尼（Jeff Kinney）所著的《小屁孩日记：漫长的旅程》这本书。书中讲述了格雷格·赫夫利一家的公路旅行经历，虽充满波折但也有欢乐。作者高度推荐这本书，认为它有趣，兼具家庭乐趣与幽默。 【36题详解】 考查副词。句意：家庭公路旅行通常充满乐趣，对吧？此处修饰形容词短语“full of fun”，应用副词normally，意为“通常，正常地”。故填normally。 【37题详解】 考查连词。句意：旅行开始时，一家人满怀美好的期望，但事情并没有如他们所愿发展。前文表明旅行开始时家庭充满希望，后文指出事情未按期望发展，前后形成转折关系，所以用连词but。故填but。 【38题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：他们在一家糟糕的酒店度过了第一个晚上，睡在地板上。本句已有谓语动词“spend”，“sleep”需用非谓语形式，“sleep”与主语“they”是主动关系，所以用现在分词sleeping作伴随状语，表示与“spend their first night”同时发生的动作。故填sleeping。 【39题详解】 考查动词语态。句意：他们在水上公园度过了阳光明媚的一天，但他们的车钥匙和钱包在那里丢了。主语“their car keys and wallets”与动词“lose”之间是被动关系，即“车钥匙和钱包被弄丢”，且描述的是旅行过程中的事情，用一般现在时的被动语态，其结构为“am/is/are +过去分词”，主语为复数，所以用are lost。故填are lost。 【40题详解】 考查名词复数。句意：旅程继续，又发生了几起事故。“accident”是可数名词，“several more”表示“还有几个”，其后接可数名词复数形式，所以用accidents。故填accidents。 【41题详解】 考查反身代词。句意：然而，一路上，这家人也找到时间享受生活。enjoy oneself为固定短语，意为“玩得开心，享受自己的时光”，这里指“the family”，所以用反身代词themselves。故填themselves。 【42题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：金尼被认为是世界上最伟大的作家之一，他非常擅长讲述那些可能出现在我们现实生活中的人物的故事。分析句子结构可知，“Kinney”与“regard as”之间是被动关系，即“金尼被认为……”，所以用过去分词Regarded作状语，句首单词首字母大写。故填Regarded。 【43题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：金尼被认为是世界上最伟大的作家之一，他非常擅长讲述那些可能出现在我们现实生活中的人物的故事。此处为关系词引导的定语从句，先行词是“people”，指人，关系词在从句中作主语，所以用关系代词who。故填who。 【44题详解】 考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：这本书真的很有趣，包含家庭乐趣和大量幽默元素。and连接两个并列谓语，根据“is”可知，这里用一般现在时，主语“It”是第三人称单数，所以谓语动词用includes。故填includes。 【45题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：我发现自己在阅读时总是笑个不停。find sb. doing sth.为固定结构，意为“发现某人正在做某事”，强调动作正在进行，这里指在阅读过程中发现自己一直在笑，所以用laughing。故填laughing。 第四部分 写作 (共两节，满分 40 分) 第一节 （满分15分） 46. 你校英文报 “Teenage Life”专栏本期的主题为“Sports and Health”。请你用英语写一篇短文投稿，内容包括： 1. 运动的重要性; 2. 你的运动建议。 注意： 1. 写作词数应为80左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Sports and Health ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】[Version 1] Sports and Health As we know, the column Teenage Life of our school newspaper is intended to draw students’ attention into “Sports and Health”, for which I am absolutely willing to share my perspectives.

As she passed by a small park, she heard a weak cry coming from the bushes. Curious, she went over to have a look. To her surprise, she found a tiny kitten with its left paw injured. The kitten looked so helpless and its eyes were filled with fear. Lucy couldn’t leave the poor kitten there. She carefully picked it up and decided to take it home. When she got home, her mother was shocked at first. “Lucy, we can’t keep it,” her mother said. “You know your father is allergic to cats.” Lucy felt sad but she didn’t want to give up the kitten. She begged her mother, “Mom, please! We can find a way. The kitten is badly hurt. It needs our help.” Her mother looked at the (可怜的) kitten and then at Lucy’s pleading eyes. Finally, she said, “Well, we can keep it for a while until it gets better, but then we have to find a new home for it.” With her mother’s permission, Lucy was very excited. She quickly found a box and made a warm bed for the kitten. Then she took out some milk and bread for it. The kitten ate a little and soon fell asleep. Lucy named the kitten Mimi and started to take good care of it every day. She cleaned its wound carefully and fed it on time. Paragraph 1: A week later, Mimi got much better and became more active. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Just as Lucy’s mother said, they began to look for a new family for Mimi. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1: A week later, Mimi got much better and became more active. It started to wander around the house, chasing its tail and rubbing against Lucy’s legs. Lucy was delighted to see the kitten’s recovery but noticed her father sneezing frequently. Though careful to keep Mimi in her room, she realized her father’s allergy was a problem. One evening, while watching Mimi play with a wool ball, Lucy tearfully told her mother she might have to say goodbye soon. Her mother hugged her, promising they’d find a loving home together. Paragraph 2: Just as Lucy’s mother said, they began to look for a new family for Mimi. They posted photos online and asked neighbors for help. A few days later, a kind couple visited, saying they’d always wanted a cat. Lucy observed how gently they played with Mimi and noticed the kitten purring happily in their arms. Though heartbroken, she knew it was the best choice. Before leaving, she tied a blue ribbon around Mimi’s neck as a keepsake. That night, Lucy cried but smiled, knowing Mimi was safe and loved — a memory she’d cherish forever. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物Lucy和受伤的小猫Mimi之间的情感故事为线索展开，主要讲述了Lucy在放学路上捡到一只受伤的小猫Mimi，并说服母亲暂时收养它，在Lucy的悉心照料下，Mimi逐渐康复，但父亲对猫过敏的问题也随之浮现，最终他们不得不为Mimi寻找新家的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“一周后，Mimi好多了，变得更活泼了。”可知，第一段可描写Mimi在Lucy的照料下逐渐康复，变得活泼好动，但Lucy也注意到了父亲对猫过敏的问题，她开始意识到必须为Mimi寻找新家。 ②由第二段首句内容“正如Lucy的母亲所说，他们开始为Mimi寻找一个新的家庭。”可知，第二段可描写Lucy和母亲开始为Mimi寻找新家的过程，他们最终找到了一对善良的夫妇愿意收养Mimi，虽然Lucy非常不舍，但她知道这是对Mimi最好的选择。 2.续写线索： Mimi康复活泼——Lucy注意到父亲过敏——意识到必须为Mimi找新家——开始寻找新家——找到善良夫妇收养Mimi——Lucy虽不舍但欣慰 3.词汇激烈 行为类 ①四处走动：wander around/walk around ②请求帮助：ask for help/seek assistance/request support ③张贴照片：post photos/upload photos/put up photos 情绪类 ①高兴的：delighted/pleased/joyful/happy ②悲伤的：tearfully/in tears/weepily/sorrowfully 【点睛】【高分句型1】Though careful to keep Mimi in her room, she realized her father’s allergy was a problem.（运用了that引导的宾语从句，that被省略） 【高分句型2】Lucy observed how gently they played with Mimi and noticed the kitten purring happily in their arms.（运用了how引导的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
