B The city of Petra, capital of the Nabataean Arabs, is one of the most famous archaeological (考古学的) sites in the world. It is located 240 km south of the capital Amman and 120 km north of the Red Sea town of Aqaba. Petra, the world wonder, is undoubtedly Jordan’s most valuable treasure and greatest tourist attraction, and it is visited by tourists from all over the world. It is not known precisely when Petra was built, but the city began to prosper (兴旺) as the capital of the Nabataean Empire from the 1st century BC, which grew rich through trade in frankincense, myrrh, and spices. Petra was later occupied by the Roman Empire and continued to prosper until a large earthquake in 363 AD destroyed much of the city in the 4th century AD.The earthquake combined with changes in trade routes, eventually led to the downfall of the city which was ultimately abandoned. By the middle of the 7th century Petra appears to have been largely deserted and it was then lost to all except local Bedouin from the area. In 1812 a Swiss explorer named Johannes Burckhardt set out to “rediscover” Petra; he dressed up as an Arab and convinced his Bedouin guide to take him to the lost city. After this, Petra became increasingly known in the West as a fascinating and beautiful ancient city, and it began attracting visitors and continues to do so today. Petra is also known as the rose-red city, a name it gets from the wonderful color of the rock from which many of the city’s structures were carved. On December 6, 1985, Petra was designated a World Heritage Site, and also Petra was chosen by Smithsonian Magazine as one of the 28 places you should visit in your life. 4. What contributed to Petra’s economy during the Nabataean Empire? A. Its history. B. Its trade. C. Its tourism. D. Its treasure. 5. How long had Petra been prosperous before its downfall? A. About 100 years. B. About 300 years. C. About 500 years. D. About 700 years. 6. What was the impact of Johannes Burckhardt’s visit to Petra in 1812? A. It increased the Westerners’ interest in Petra. B. It resulted in Petra being immediately rediscovered. C. It caused Petra to be abandoned by local Bedouin. D. It led to Petra being forgotten again until the 20th century. 7. Which is the best title for the text? A. Petra — More than a wonder B. Johannes — Great saver for Petra C. Earthquake — Destroyer of Petra D. Jordan — Owner of the rose-red city C Smiley-faced potatoes encourage children to eat their vegetables, a study has found. The study published in the journal Nutrients found that potatoes played a significant role in school-aged children and their attitudes toward vegetables. Children between 3 and 18 should eat 2.5 to 3 cups of vegetables a day, according to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans — however, they usually only eat about 1 cup a day. As vegetables tend to have a more bitter taste, children often prefer foods that are saltier and sweeter. Vegetables are a key part of a healthy diet, though, and hold nutrients needed to strengthen the immune system. Their unwillingness to eat vegetables can be a problem, especially in school-based settings, where it can also lead to food waste. For this reason, scientists started some mealtime observations to see how potatoes impacted what a child ate in a cafeteria at school. They discovered that children ate more vegetables when they were served alongside potatoes that look like smiley faces. This suggests that using fun shapes in foods can encourage children to eat more vegetables. “Getting children to eat their vegetables is always a challenge. Potatoes not only add nutrients, like potassium, directly to the plate, but may also help encourage children to explore other vegetables that are served alongside and thereby help them get closer to their overall nutrition needs. These findings stress the wide-reaching impacts of school menus. We want vegetables on school lunch trays to fuel children’s bodies — not to fill the trash can,” principal investigator Gene Ahlborn said. In the study, scientists found that seasoned potatoes were less appealing to children aged from 7 to 13. They also found that when the smiley-faced potatoes were served separately from vegetables, it did not encourage the children to eat them. However, when served directly alongside the vegetables, the smiley-faced potatoes did lead to fewer vegetables being wasted overall. The scientists believe these findings will not only help draw more children to vegetables but also help reduce food waste in cafeteria settings. 8. Why do children prefer saltier and sweeter foods to vegetables according to the text? A. Vegetables have dull colors. B. Vegetables have a light taste. C. Vegetables are harder to chew. D. Vegetables often taste bitterer. 9. What method did scientists mainly use in the study? A. Interviews. B. Case studies. C. Observation. D. Questionnaire investigation. 10. How might fun-shaped foods affect children? A. Children will enjoy new foods. B. Children will eat more vegetables. C. Children will eat fewer desserts. D. Children will stick to healthy eating habits. 11. The findings of the study imply that school menus should ________. A. cut down the amount of sweeter foods B. adapt to students’ preference for saltier foods C. focus on the presentation and pairing of foods D. prepare more varieties of vegetables for students D When Randolph County’s $242 million Riverstart Solar Park is completed in 2024, it is Indiana’s biggest. Thousands of photovoltaic panels (光伏板) covering 1,400 acres of rural land will generate enough clean electricity to power 36,000 homes. Massive large solar farms like this can be a touchy subject with locals. So, in the lead-up to the project’s approval, the local government ensured the developer would be a good neighbor. They required the planting of pollinator-friendly (传粉者友好型) plants like wildflowers and clover, in addition to native grasses. It was the first such rule in state history. Riverstart’s design takes into account the health of bee populations, which is critical because we depend on pollinators to fertilize our food plants — everything from apples to pears, blueberries to peaches. Bees are reducing in many parts of the world. The US Department of Agriculture funded a grant exploring the use of drones (无人机) to pollinate fruit crops in Washington State. For Randolph County, about 80 miles northeast of Indianapolis, the rule approval comes at a time when Indiana’s native pollinator species have declined below the number needed to pollinate crops. Solar companies will sometimes enter into agreements with local farmers to allow sheep herds to eat the vegetation around the solar panels, providing another income stream for the farmer who is renting the land to the solar farm. Fencing keeps predators out, while the panels themselves shelter the sheep from sun and storms. Such natural grazing also encourages grass regrowth, increases manure nutrients to the soil, and avoids the costs and pollution of cutting grass. Moving forward, solar farms could play a role in food security as well. With big utility-scale solar farms alone predicted to cover almost two million acres of land in the US by 2030, a huge opportunity is on the horizon to support pollinators, improve soil health, nurture biodiversity, produce food and, not least, reduce emissions, all at the same time. 12. Why large solar farms can be a touchy subject with locals? A. They will reduce farmland greatly. B. They will put pollinators to death. C. They may worsen the local ecosystem. D. They may increase local electricity costs. 13. Why does the author mention the use of drones in Washington State? A. To show the advanced technology. B. To highlight the importance of pollinators. C. To praise the US Department of Agriculture. D. To stress the necessity of Riverstart’s design. 14. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The details of the agreements signed by local farmers. B. The benefits of the solar farm brought to environment and finance. C. The process of improving the soil carried out by the local government. D. The methods of keeping predators out employed by solar companies. 15. What does the underlined phrase “on the horizon” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. In the air. B. At an end. C. Out of reach. D. Around the corner. 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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 At age four, I found a garden behind the kitchen. My eyes became glued to the patterns of roses across my childhood landscape.

It was a pity that our home didn’t have air conditioning. Momma and I were just trying to get through this August afternoon the best we could. Reading helped take our minds off the heat. Momma was stretched across the sofa, a pillow (枕头) under her head, reading. I sat on the floor, leaning (倚靠) back against the sofa, a curious nine-year-old in shorts sharing a fan’s flow. My book rested on the floor. I looked at the thin hardcover my mom was reading, Ed Nichols Rode a Horse. There was a cowboy riding his horse on the front cover, but otherwise the book appeared plain and unimpressive. Before I settled, I asked, “Momma, what’s your book about?” “It’s a story about a man, his horse and the hardships he encountered in Texas. Some of it takes place in Bosque County,” she answered. With that, my mom returned to her story. I knew Bosque County was near where Momma had grown up. And I also knew it was best if I didn’t ask any more questions. My mom took her reading seriously. We’d been reading for the better part of an hour-the only sounds were those that came from the fan and an occasional turn of a page — when I heard something unfamiliar. The sniffling (抽鼻子) back of tears. I turned in her direction and saw something I’d never seen before: my mom crying. Something big — really big must have happened. My mom did not cry. “Momma, what’s wrong?” I got up on my knees, staring directly into her face. “Are you all right?” “Jennifer, I’m fine.” Momma sat up and wiped (擦) her eyes. “You don’t need to be concerned.” I wasn’t buying it. This was not normal behavior. “Why were you crying?” I asked in a whisper. She looked at me hard. “The book made me cry,” she replied. I was trying to figure out how that plain-looking book could make my mostly no-nonsense momma cry when she said the most amazing thing. “The story made me sad when the horse got hurt.” 注意： 1.续写词数应为150 左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 That’s when I learned the truth that stories affect us. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I read Ed Nichols Rode a Horse from cover to cover with a big plan forming in my mind. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高一英语期末试卷 (120分钟　150分) 第一部分　听力(共两节,满分30分) 第一节　(共5小题;每小题1.5分,满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题,从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项,并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后,你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.How does the man probably feel?

What contributed to Petra’s economy during the Nabataean Empire? A. Its history. B. Its trade. C. Its tourism. D. Its treasure. 5. How long had Petra been prosperous before its downfall? A. About 100 years. B. About 300 years. C. About 500 years. D. About 700 years. 6. What was the impact of Johannes Burckhardt’s visit to Petra in 1812? A. It increased the Westerners’ interest in Petra. B. It resulted in Petra being immediately rediscovered. C. It caused Petra to be abandoned by local Bedouin. D. It led to Petra being forgotten again until the 20th century. 7. Which is the best title for the text? A. Petra — More than a wonder B. Johannes — Great saver for Petra C. Earthquake — Destroyer of Petra D. Jordan — Owner of the rose-red city 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. A 7. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了佩特拉古城的历史、经济来源、衰落原因、重新发现过程以及其世界遗产地位。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“It is not known precisely when Petra was built, but the city began to prosper (兴旺) as the capital of the Nabataean Empire from the 1st century BC, which grew rich through trade in frankincense, myrrh, and spices.(佩特拉的确切建造时间尚不清楚，但这座城市从公元前1世纪开始作为纳巴泰帝国的首都而兴盛起来，帝国通过乳香、没药和香料的贸易变得富有)”可知，佩特拉在纳巴泰帝国时期的经济依赖于贸易。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“It is not known precisely when Petra was built, but the city began to prosper (兴旺) as the capital of the Nabataean Empire from the 1st century BC, which grew rich through trade in frankincense, myrrh, and spices.  Petra was later occupied by the Roman Empire and continued to prosper until a large earthquake in 363 AD destroyed much of the city in the 4th century AD. (佩特拉的确切建造时间尚不清楚，但这座城市从公元前1世纪开始作为纳巴泰帝国的首都而兴盛起来，因乳香、没药和香料贸易而变得富裕。佩特拉后来被罗马帝国占领，并继续繁荣，直到公元363年的一场大地震在公元4世纪摧毁了这座城市的大部分)”可知，佩特拉的繁荣时期从公元前1世纪到公元363年，大约持续了460多年，接近500年。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“In 1812 a Swiss explorer named Johannes Burckhardt set out to “rediscover” Petra; he dressed up as an Arab and convinced his Bedouin guide to take him to the lost city. After this, Petra became increasingly known in the West as a fascinating and beautiful ancient city, and it began attracting visitors and continues to do so today.(1812年，一位名叫Johannes Burckhardt的瑞士探险家出发去“重新发现”佩特拉；他装扮成阿拉伯人，说服了他的贝都因向导带他去这座失落之城。此后，佩特拉在西方越来越被视为一座迷人而美丽的古城，开始吸引游客，并持续至今)”可知，Johannes Burckhardt的访问增加了西方人对佩特拉的兴趣。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第一段“The city of Petra, capital of the Nabataean Arabs, is one of the most famous archaeological (考古学的) sites in the world. (佩特拉古城是纳巴泰阿拉伯人的首都，是世界上最著名的考古遗址之一)”引入佩特拉古城、第二段介绍其历史繁荣、第三段介绍其被重新发现、第四段介绍其世界遗产地位和别称可知，文章从多个方面介绍了佩特拉古城，强调其不仅仅是一个奇迹。故A项“Petra—More than a wonder (佩特拉——不仅仅是一个奇迹)”能概括文章内容，最适合做文章标题。 C Smiley-faced potatoes encourage children to eat their vegetables, a study has found. The study published in the journal Nutrients found that potatoes played a significant role in school-aged children and their attitudes toward vegetables. Children between 3 and 18 should eat 2.5 to 3 cups of vegetables a day, according to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans — however, they usually only eat about 1 cup a day. As vegetables tend to have a more bitter taste, children often prefer foods that are saltier and sweeter. Vegetables are a key part of a healthy diet, though, and hold nutrients needed to strengthen the immune system. Their unwillingness to eat vegetables can be a problem, especially in school-based settings, where it can also lead to food waste. For this reason, scientists started some mealtime observations to see how potatoes impacted what a child ate in a cafeteria at school. They discovered that children ate more vegetables when they were served alongside potatoes that look like smiley faces. This suggests that using fun shapes in foods can encourage children to eat more vegetables. “Getting children to eat their vegetables is always a challenge. Potatoes not only add nutrients, like potassium, directly to the plate, but may also help encourage children to explore other vegetables that are served alongside and thereby help them get closer to their overall nutrition needs. These findings stress the wide-reaching impacts of school menus. We want vegetables on school lunch trays to fuel children’s bodies — not to fill the trash can,” principal investigator Gene Ahlborn said. In the study, scientists found that seasoned potatoes were less appealing to children aged from 7 to 13. They also found that when the smiley-faced potatoes were served separately from vegetables, it did not encourage the children to eat them. However, when served directly alongside the vegetables, the smiley-faced potatoes did lead to fewer vegetables being wasted overall. The scientists believe these findings will not only help draw more children to vegetables but also help reduce food waste in cafeteria settings. 8. Why do children prefer saltier and sweeter foods to vegetables according to the text? A. Vegetables have dull colors. B. Vegetables have a light taste. C. Vegetables are harder to chew. D. Vegetables often taste bitterer. 9. What method did scientists mainly use in the study? A. Interviews. B. Case studies. C. Observation. D. Questionnaire investigation. 10. How might fun-shaped foods affect children? A. Children will enjoy new foods. B. Children will eat more vegetables. C. Children will eat fewer desserts. D. Children will stick to healthy eating habits. 11. The findings of the study imply that school menus should ________. A. cut down the amount of sweeter foods B. adapt to students’ preference for saltier foods C. focus on the presentation and pairing of foods D. prepare more varieties of vegetables for students 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了一项研究发现，笑脸形状的土豆可以鼓励儿童多吃蔬菜，并减少食物浪费。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“As vegetables tend to have a more bitter taste, children often prefer foods that are saltier and sweeter. (由于蔬菜往往有更苦的味道，孩子们通常更喜欢更咸和更甜的食物。)”可知，孩子们更喜欢咸和甜的食物是因为蔬菜通常味道更苦。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“For this reason, scientists started some mealtime observations to see how potatoes impacted what a child ate in a cafeteria at school. (出于这个原因，科学家们开始进行用餐时间观察，以研究土豆如何影响孩子们在学校食堂的饮食)”可知，科学家主要使用的方法是观察。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“They discovered that children ate more vegetables when they were served alongside potatoes that look like smiley faces. This suggests that using fun shapes in foods can encourage children to eat more vegetables.(他们发现，当蔬菜和笑脸形状的土豆一同供应时，孩子们会吃更多的蔬菜。这表明在食物中使用有趣的形状可以鼓励孩子们吃更多的蔬菜。)”可知，有趣形状的食物可以鼓励孩子们吃更多蔬菜。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“They also found that when the smiley-faced potatoes were served separately from vegetables, it did not encourage the children to eat them. However, when served directly alongside the vegetables, the smiley-faced potatoes did lead to fewer vegetables being wasted overall.(他们还发现，当笑脸土豆与蔬菜分开供应时，并不能鼓励孩子们吃蔬菜。然而，当笑脸土豆与蔬菜直接搭配供应时，确实使得蔬菜的整体浪费减少了。)”可推知，笑脸土豆与蔬菜分开供应和直接搭配会带来不同的效果，所以学校菜单应关注食物的呈现和搭配方式。 D When Randolph County’s $242 million Riverstart Solar Park is completed in 2024, it is Indiana’s biggest. Thousands of photovoltaic panels (光伏板) covering 1,400 acres of rural land will generate enough clean electricity to power 36,000 homes. Massive large solar farms like this can be a touchy subject with locals. So, in the lead-up to the project’s approval, the local government ensured the developer would be a good neighbor. They required the planting of pollinator-friendly (传粉者友好型) plants like wildflowers and clover, in addition to native grasses. It was the first such rule in state history. Riverstart’s design takes into account the health of bee populations, which is critical because we depend on pollinators to fertilize our food plants — everything from apples to pears, blueberries to peaches. Bees are reducing in many parts of the world. The US Department of Agriculture funded a grant exploring the use of drones (无人机) to pollinate fruit crops in Washington State. For Randolph County, about 80 miles northeast of Indianapolis, the rule approval comes at a time when Indiana’s native pollinator species have declined below the number needed to pollinate crops. Solar companies will sometimes enter into agreements with local farmers to allow sheep herds to eat the vegetation around the solar panels, providing another income stream for the farmer who is renting the land to the solar farm. Fencing keeps predators out, while the panels themselves shelter the sheep from sun and storms. Such natural grazing also encourages grass regrowth, increases manure nutrients to the soil, and avoids the costs and pollution of cutting grass. Moving forward, solar farms could play a role in food security as well. With big utility-scale solar farms alone predicted to cover almost two million acres of land in the US by 2030, a huge opportunity is on the horizon to support pollinators, improve soil health, nurture biodiversity, produce food and, not least, reduce emissions, all at the same time. 12. Why large solar farms can be a touchy subject with locals? A. They will reduce farmland greatly. B. They will put pollinators to death. C. They may worsen the local ecosystem. D. They may increase local electricity costs. 13. Why does the author mention the use of drones in Washington State? A. To show the advanced technology. B. To highlight the importance of pollinators. C. To praise the US Department of Agriculture. D. To stress the necessity of Riverstart’s design. 14. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The details of the agreements signed by local farmers. B. The benefits of the solar farm brought to environment and finance. C. The process of improving the soil carried out by the local government. D. The methods of keeping predators out employed by solar companies. 15. What does the underlined phrase “on the horizon” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. In the air. B. At an end. C. Out of reach. D. Around the corner. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了印第安纳州Riverstart太阳能公园的设计，该设计兼顾了传粉昆虫保护、土壤改良和经济效益等多重目标。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Massive large solar farms like this can be a touchy subject with locals. So, in the lead-up to the project’s approval, the local government ensured the developer would be a good neighbor. They required the planting of pollinator-friendly (传粉者友好型) plants like wildflowers and clover, in addition to native grasses. (像这样的大型太阳能发电场，对当地人来说可能是一个敏感话题。因此，在项目获批之前，当地政府确保开发商将成为一个好邻居。他们要求在种植本地草种之外，还需种植像野花和三叶草等有利于传粉者的植物。)”可推知，大型太阳能农场之所以是敏感话题，是因为当地人担心其会破坏当地生态系统，因此政府才会要求种植对传粉者友好的植物来保护生态。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中‌“Riverstart’s design takes into account the health of bee populations, which is critical because we depend on pollinators to fertilize our food plants (Riverstart的设计考虑到了蜜蜂种群的健康，这一点至关重要，因为我们依赖传粉者来使我们的粮食作物受粉)”和‌“Bees are reducing in many parts of the world. The US Department of Agriculture funded a grant exploring the use of drones (无人机) to pollinate fruit crops in Washington State. (世界上许多地方蜜蜂数量都在减少。美国农业部资助了一项探索在华盛顿州使用无人机为水果作物授粉的拨款。)”可知，作者提到无人机授粉是为了说明蜜蜂减少的严重性，进而突出Riverstart的设计(种植传粉者友好植物以保护蜜蜂)的必要性。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段中“Solar companies will sometimes enter into agreements with local farmers to allow sheep herds to eat the vegetation around the solar panels, providing another income stream for the farmer who is renting the land to the solar farm. (太阳能公司有时会与当地农民达成协议，允许羊群在太阳能板周围吃草，为将土地租给太阳能农场的农民提供另一项收入来源。)”和“Such natural grazing also encourages grass regrowth, increases manure nutrients to the soil, and avoids the costs and pollution of cutting grass. (这种自然放牧还能促进草类再生，增加土壤中的粪肥养分，并避免割草的成本和污染。)”可知，本段主要讲的是太阳能农场带来的环境和经济效益。 【15题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段中“With big utility-scale solar farms alone predicted to cover almost two million acres of land in the US by 2030 (仅大型公用事业规模的太阳能农场预计到2030年将覆盖美国近200万英亩的土地)”以及“a huge opportunity is on the horizon (一个巨大的机会on the horizon)”可知，这个机会即将到来。故划线短语意为“即将到来”，与“Around the corner”同义。 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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 At age four, I found a garden behind the kitchen.

It was a pity that our home didn’t have air conditioning. Momma and I were just trying to get through this August afternoon the best we could. Reading helped take our minds off the heat. Momma was stretched across the sofa, a pillow (枕头) under her head, reading. I sat on the floor, leaning (倚靠) back against the sofa, a curious nine-year-old in shorts sharing a fan’s flow. My book rested on the floor. I looked at the thin hardcover my mom was reading, Ed Nichols Rode a Horse. There was a cowboy riding his horse on the front cover, but otherwise the book appeared plain and unimpressive. Before I settled, I asked, “Momma, what’s your book about?” “It’s a story about a man, his horse and the hardships he encountered in Texas. Some of it takes place in Bosque County,” she answered. With that, my mom returned to her story. I knew Bosque County was near where Momma had grown up. And I also knew it was best if I didn’t ask any more questions. My mom took her reading seriously. We’d been reading for the better part of an hour-the only sounds were those that came from the fan and an occasional turn of a page — when I heard something unfamiliar. The sniffling (抽鼻子) back of tears. I turned in her direction and saw something I’d never seen before: my mom crying. Something big — really big must have happened. My mom did not cry. “Momma, what’s wrong?” I got up on my knees, staring directly into her face. “Are you all right?” “Jennifer, I’m fine.” Momma sat up and wiped (擦) her eyes. “You don’t need to be concerned.” I wasn’t buying it. This was not normal behavior. “Why were you crying?” I asked in a whisper. She looked at me hard. “The book made me cry,” she replied. I was trying to figure out how that plain-looking book could make my mostly no-nonsense momma cry when she said the most amazing thing. “The story made me sad when the horse got hurt.” 注意： 1.续写词数应为150 左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 That’s when I learned the truth that stories affect us. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I read Ed Nichols Rode a Horse from cover to cover with a big plan forming in my mind. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 That’s when I learned the truth that stories affect us. A reader can be transformed and feel strong emotion over something printed on a page. Words had just become very powerful. I looked into my mom’s eyes. “Momma, could I read your book?” I held my breath, afraid she’d deny me the right to read such a sad, adult tale. But my mom was a wise woman. She studied me for what seemed a long time. Finally, she said, “I think you’re old enough to handle it.” Momma handed me her book. I read Ed Nichols Rode a Horse from cover to cover with a big plan forming in my mind. In the process of my reading I cried just like my mom. The powerful story told on those pages affected me, just like it had my mom. And, the shared reading of it united us. We were unified that hot Texas day over the power of written words. And from that moment on, I knew what I wanted to become. I wanted to be a writer of stories capable of bringing such emotions into others’ mind. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了在德克萨斯州中部的夏天，家里没有空调，作者和妈妈只好通过在家里看书来转移注意力，然后，作者发现妈妈看着书竟然哭了，这让作者感到好奇，因为作者从没看妈妈哭过，于是作者询问妈妈是否自己能看看那本书，妈妈同意了，通过这本书，作者明白了文字的力量。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“从那时起，我明白了故事影响我们的真相。”可知，第一段可描写因为好奇，请求妈妈让自己看看那本书，以为妈妈会拒绝，没想到妈妈同意自己看那本书。 ②由第二段首句内容“我通读了Ed Nichols Rode a Horse，脑海中形成了一个宏伟的计划。”可知，第二段可描写作者看过书后，也哭了，明白了文字的力量，想成为一名故事作家。 2. 续写线索：读书——发现妈妈哭了——好奇——请求也阅读那本书——妈妈同意自己看那本书——看完之后自己也哭了——明白了文字的力量——想成为一名故事作家 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①拒绝：deny/refuse ②认为：think (that)/hold the belief that ③影响：affect/influence 情绪类 ①害怕的：afraid/frightened ②悲伤的：sad/sorrowful/heartbroken 【点睛】[高分句型1] She studied me for what seemed a long time.
