B Against the backdrop of a growing water crisis in India, an ancient underground, labyrinth-like (迷宫样的) structure is emerging as one solution to boosting its shrinking reserves — stepwells. The complex, terraced (梯田状的) water storage was once the lifeblood of Indian communities — developed centuries ago to store and access water for drinking, agriculture and industry, and it also functioned as a local gathering spot. Today, many of these architectural wonders have been damaged — victims of ignoring, pollution and a rapidly urbanizing India. But Indian environmentalist Arun Krishnamurthy, has made it his new mission to tap into this technology of the past, to secure water for its future. For almost 20 years, Krishnamurthy has worked to bring India’s degraded bodies of water back to life through his organization Environmentalist Foundation of India (EFI). EFI has restored 657 water bodies across 19 states — from lakes to ponds, and most recently stepwells. “Stepwell restoration is the next big implementation challenge that I would like to add to EFI’s responsibilities because we have a greater responsibility now for protecting the historical heritage, which is evidence of human intelligence,” Krishnamurthy says. EFI already draws on the stepwell design principles of its ancestors to guide its lake and pond restoration efforts. “They include the engineering, land use, understanding the water flows, the storage parameters (参数): How was the embankment laid? Where was the palm tree planted? How was the canal cut?” Krishnamurthy says, “So we take lessons from the past, and adapting them to the present-day challenges is what we are implementing.” Despite his extensive experience in recovering freshwater bodies, Krishnamurthy says stepwells are uniquely demanding. Restoring these ancient structures calls for specialized traditional knowledge and craftsmanship — and even after they are revived, vandalism (破坏行为) makes their upkeep an ongoing struggle. Krishnamurthy says these stepwells will need public responsibility to safeguard their future. 4. What can we learn about stepwells from paragraph 1? A. They were designed to deal with industrial waste. B. They served multiple purposes in ancient India. C. They are built on the ground for easy access. D. They are freshly constructed water projects. 5. What does Krishnamurthy think of restoring stepwells? A. It is costly but worthwhile. B. It is easy with modern tools. C. It is based on lake restoration. D. It is a duty and a challenge. 6. What is the author’s purpose of writing paragraph 4? A. To describe the structure of old stepwells. B. To stress the necessity of water protection. C. To show the value of ancient stepwell wisdom. D. To explain the difficulty in restoring stepwells. 7. What is needed to protect stepwells in the long run according to Krishnamurthy? A. Community involvement. B. Steady urbanization. C. More government funding. D. Modern engineering. C Search online and you will find countless DIYbio trends that promise healthier aging, from using hyperbaric oxygen therapy to sleeping under red lights. But research from Tufts University points to a much simpler lifestyle change that appears to work: eating slightly fewer calories. The findings come from CALERIE, short for Comprehensive Assessment of Long-term Effects of Reducing Intake of Energy. In the study, 143 participants tried to reduce their calorie intake by 25% for two years, while 75 others continued eating normally as the control group. Researchers found notable improvements among the participants who reduced calories. Many shifted their diets away from fats and toward more protein and carbohydrates. Although the group achieved only about a 12% calorie reduction instead of the targeted 25%, they still experienced significant declines in blood pressure, LDL cholesterol, and insulin levels compared with the control group. A paper released earlier this year found that lowering calorie intake did not reduce the overall nutritional quality of participants’ diets. “The most exciting part is that we saw these benefits with only a moderate level of restriction that’s feasible for most people. It doesn’t have to take extreme measures. For some people, just skipping a large daily sugary coffee drink can do the trick,” says Sai Krupa Das, one of the researchers. Researchers are still unable to understand exactly why calorie restriction boosts health. One theory is that eating less helps the body generate energy more efficiently while producing fewer reactive oxygen species, unstable molecules (分子) that can damage cells and contribute to diseases ranging from cancer to Parkinson’s disease. One test confirmed that the participants in the calorie restriction group had lower levels of these molecules than the control group. The CALERIE project is still ongoing. Researchers still do not know whether calorie restriction works best as a permanent lifestyle or as a shorter-term intervention. “I think the follow-up was necessary given such promising results in the primary study, and it is crucial to see how things play out over time,” Das says. 8. What is the effective way to slow aging according to the research from Tufts University? A. Receiving oxygen treatment. B. Using red lights while sleeping. C. Trying various DIYbio methods. D. Cutting down food calories a little. 9. What do we know about the calorie-cutting participants? A. They took in much less protein. B. They quitted before the deadline. C. Their health indicators turned better generally. D. Their diets were richer than the control group’s. 10. What does the underlined word “feasible” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Strange. B. Practical. C. Suspicious. D. Predictable. 11. Why do researchers carry out further research? A. To explore long-term effects of calorie restriction. B. To figure out new approaches to restricting calories. C. To explain why calorie restriction improves health. D. To detect how reactive oxygen species harm health. D Ants that consume a sugary treat mixed with caffeine become noticeably better at finding their way back to it. A new study, published in Science, focused on Argentine ants, a widespread attacking species. Efforts to control them typically rely on poisonous bait (诱饵), but these strategies often fall short. The colony of ants may ignore the bait or abandon it before it spreads widely. The research team from the University of Regensburg explored whether caffeine, which is already known to enhance learning in bees, could help ants better remember bait locations and lead more nestmates to them. To investigate this idea, the scientists designed a controlled experiment using different caffeine levels. 142 ants crossed a small toy drawbridge onto a test surface, which consisted of an A4 sheet placed over acrylic (丙烯酸). There, they encountered a drop of sugar solution containing 0 ppm, 25 ppm, 250 ppm, or 2,000 ppm of caffeine. The team tracked each ant’s movement with an automated system, measuring both travel time and how direct their paths were. Ants that received only sugar showed little improvement over time, indicating they were not learning the reward’s location effectively. For ants exposed to 25 ppm of caffeine, foraging (觅食) time decreased by 28 percent with each visit. At 250 ppm, the improvement reached 38 percent. The highest caffeine level did not produce the same benefit. The improvement was not due to increased speed. Instead, caffeinated ants followed more direct routes, suggesting stronger focus and better spatial memory. Their pace remained unchanged across all doses, but their paths became less winding at the lower and intermediate levels of caffeine. The findings suggest that caffeine could play a role in improving pest control strategies for Argentine ants. By helping ants learn bait locations more quickly and bring back more nestmates, caffeine could increase how effectively poison spreads through a colony before the ants detect it. However, the researchers caution that more work is needed before applying this approach in real-world settings. 12. What inspired the research team to conduct the experiment? A. The desire to stop ant attack. B. The impact of caffeine on bees. C. The need to increase ants’ speed. D. The failure of their using previous baits. 13. What can be said about the ants exposed to 250 ppm of caffeine? A. They increased their movement speed. B. They were unable to return to their nests. C. They acquired positional memory effectively. D. They required additional duration for foraging. 14. How did caffeine affect the ants’ movement? A. It greatly increased their pace. B. It helped them avoid winding routes. C. It brought them more food choices. D. It encouraged them to explore new areas. 15. What can be the best title for the text? A. Caffeine Helping Ants Find Food Faster B. Effective Poisonous Bait Attracting Ants C. Caffeine’s Role in Controlling Ants’ Memory D. A New Way to Study Ants’ Foraging Behavior 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。 How to Break Free from Guilt I have missed a friend’s milestone birthday, haven’t returned my dad’s phone call, and won’t be able to make it to my kid’s marching band event. ____16____ This complex, painful emotion can motivate you to make positive changes, such as reducing your carbon footprint or repairing a relationship. However, guilt can go too far or be unhealthy, and even when it serves a purpose, it can cause unnecessary anxiety and anger. Sometimes, when you do something that makes you feel guilty, you tend to blame it on your character weaknesses. This tendency to overgeneralize consists of inaccurate perspectives that can have a negative effect on your mental health. ____17____ For example, acknowledging that you forgot a friend’s birthday is vastly different from telling yourself that you are a bad friend. ____18____ Guilt is a sticky emotion that can become a habit, but you can challenge that feeling by quieting your inner critic. Start by asking if the expectations you set for yourself are realistic or fair. You can tell yourself repeatedly that it’s fine and normal that others will be disappointed. You can also try talking to yourself as if you were comforting a friend, reframing the situation through a more tolerant perspective. Instead of saying “I messed it up”, you might say, “____19____” The key is not to beat yourself up, but to think of a way to move forward rather than living in the past. ____20____ We are having a wonderful breakfast, and beforehand, I will run and get her a bunch of flowers from the supermarket. A. I couldn’t do it better next time. B. This didn’t go as I intended, but I tried my best. C. Another powerful strategy is to practice self-forgiveness. D. Tomorrow, I’m meeting the friend whose birthday I forgot. E. If you’re anything like me, guilt can be an everyday experience. F. Nevertheless, you’d better choose to forget anything insignificant, G. Therefore, it is essential to focus on your actions rather than your character. 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) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Last year, a severe illness struck me, leaving me unable to handle basic daily routine.

He was over the moon about becoming a senior high school student soon. Life was throwing a lot of changes at him, and one of the biggest was related to his older brother, Conor, who had just turned 19, got his driver’s license, and was busy with his own business. I noticed Aidan seem a bit lonely. That’s when he came up with the idea of starting a dog-walking business. He was so sure his idea was a good one that I gave him permission to hang the signs on the information boards in the four surrounding blocks, advertising the dog-walking business: $3 for half a day, and $5 for a whole day. Just looking at the smile on his face when he prepared to post the signs, which would begin it all, was magic. Aidan was a great kid and very reliable, and I hoped someone would help him achieve his goals, and fill his summer with confidence and purpose. The next day, Aidan received a call. A lady had set up an appointment for him to walk her dog. I was so happy and proud to hear the news. But then, it turned out that the “lady” was actually a young girl whose summer responsibility included walking the family dog. Her father wouldn’t pay Aidan to do her job. Aidan’s face fell, but he tried to stay positive. Then another call came. “This is it!” Aidan said, his eyes lighting up. But it was a prank (恶作剧). He ended up being tricked into going to an address, where he nervously introduced himself to a couple. The couple actually claimed they didn’t contact Aidan, and they didn’t want Aidan to walk their dog, either. And there were others calling to laugh at Aidan and even question why he thought someone would pay him just for walking a dog. 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。 With one failure after another, Aidan was almost losing heart. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Things changed one day when I talked to our neighbor, Sheila. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高二英语 注意事项： 1．答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号、考场号、座位号填写在答题卡上。 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．考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 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.

EFI has restored 657 water bodies across 19 states — from lakes to ponds, and most recently stepwells. “Stepwell restoration is the next big implementation challenge that I would like to add to EFI’s responsibilities because we have a greater responsibility now for protecting the historical heritage, which is evidence of human intelligence,” Krishnamurthy says. EFI already draws on the stepwell design principles of its ancestors to guide its lake and pond restoration efforts. “They include the engineering, land use, understanding the water flows, the storage parameters (参数): How was the embankment laid? Where was the palm tree planted? How was the canal cut?” Krishnamurthy says, “So we take lessons from the past, and adapting them to the present-day challenges is what we are implementing.” Despite his extensive experience in recovering freshwater bodies, Krishnamurthy says stepwells are uniquely demanding. Restoring these ancient structures calls for specialized traditional knowledge and craftsmanship — and even after they are revived, vandalism (破坏行为) makes their upkeep an ongoing struggle. Krishnamurthy says these stepwells will need public responsibility to safeguard their future. 4. What can we learn about stepwells from paragraph 1? A. They were designed to deal with industrial waste. B. They served multiple purposes in ancient India. C. They are built on the ground for easy access. D. They are freshly constructed water projects. 5. What does Krishnamurthy think of restoring stepwells? A. It is costly but worthwhile. B. It is easy with modern tools. C. It is based on lake restoration. D. It is a duty and a challenge. 6. What is the author’s purpose of writing paragraph 4? A. To describe the structure of old stepwells. B. To stress the necessity of water protection. C. To show the value of ancient stepwell wisdom. D. To explain the difficulty in restoring stepwells. 7. What is needed to protect stepwells in the long run according to Krishnamurthy? A. Community involvement. B. Steady urbanization. C. More government funding. D. Modern engineering. 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. C 7.

But research from Tufts University points to a much simpler lifestyle change that appears to work: eating slightly fewer calories. The findings come from CALERIE, short for Comprehensive Assessment of Long-term Effects of Reducing Intake of Energy. In the study, 143 participants tried to reduce their calorie intake by 25% for two years, while 75 others continued eating normally as the control group. Researchers found notable improvements among the participants who reduced calories. Many shifted their diets away from fats and toward more protein and carbohydrates. Although the group achieved only about a 12% calorie reduction instead of the targeted 25%, they still experienced significant declines in blood pressure, LDL cholesterol, and insulin levels compared with the control group. A paper released earlier this year found that lowering calorie intake did not reduce the overall nutritional quality of participants’ diets. “The most exciting part is that we saw these benefits with only a moderate level of restriction that’s feasible for most people. It doesn’t have to take extreme measures. For some people, just skipping a large daily sugary coffee drink can do the trick,” says Sai Krupa Das, one of the researchers. Researchers are still unable to understand exactly why calorie restriction boosts health. One theory is that eating less helps the body generate energy more efficiently while producing fewer reactive oxygen species, unstable molecules (分子) that can damage cells and contribute to diseases ranging from cancer to Parkinson’s disease. One test confirmed that the participants in the calorie restriction group had lower levels of these molecules than the control group. The CALERIE project is still ongoing. Researchers still do not know whether calorie restriction works best as a permanent lifestyle or as a shorter-term intervention. “I think the follow-up was necessary given such promising results in the primary study, and it is crucial to see how things play out over time,” Das says. 8. What is the effective way to slow aging according to the research from Tufts University? A. Receiving oxygen treatment. B. Using red lights while sleeping. C. Trying various DIYbio methods. D. Cutting down food calories a little. 9. What do we know about the calorie-cutting participants? A. They took in much less protein. B. They quitted before the deadline. C. Their health indicators turned better generally. D. Their diets were richer than the control group’s. 10. What does the underlined word “feasible” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Strange. B. Practical. C. Suspicious. D. Predictable. 11. Why do researchers carry out further research? A. To explore long-term effects of calorie restriction. B. To figure out new approaches to restricting calories. C. To explain why calorie restriction improves health. D. To detect how reactive oxygen species harm health. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍了一项研究表明，适度减少卡路里摄入可以显著改善血压、胆固醇和胰岛素等健康指标，从而延缓衰老，但长期效果仍需进一步研究。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“But research from Tufts University points to a much simpler lifestyle change that appears to work: eating slightly fewer calories. (但塔夫茨大学的研究指出一种更简单的生活方式改变似乎有效：稍微少吃点卡路里。)”可知，根据塔夫茨大学的研究，延缓衰老的有效方法是稍微减少食物卡路里的摄入。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Although the group achieved only about a 12% calorie reduction instead of the targeted 25%, they still experienced significant declines in blood pressure, LDL cholesterol, and insulin levels compared with the control group. (尽管该组仅实现了约12%的热量减少，未达到目标的25%，但与对照组相比，他们的血压、低密度脂蛋白胆固醇和胰岛素水平仍显著下降。)”可知，减少卡路里的参与者的健康指标总体上变好了。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词的下文“It doesn’t have to take extreme measures. For some people, just skipping a large daily sugary coffee drink can do the trick (不必采取极端措施。对某些人来说，只需每天少喝一大杯含糖咖啡就足以达到效果。)”可知，实现这些好处无需极端措施，仅改变微小的日常饮食习惯就可以，说明这对大多数人来说是可行的，画线词的意思是“可行的，办得到的”，与Practical“切实有效的，切实可行的”意思接近。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Researchers still do not know whether calorie restriction works best as a permanent lifestyle or as a shorter-term intervention. “I think the follow-up was necessary given such promising results in the primary study, and it is crucial to see how things play out over time,” Das says. (研究人员仍然不清楚热量限制是作为长期生活方式还是短期干预措施效果最佳。“考虑到初步研究结果非常有希望，我认为后续随访是必要的，而且观察其长期发展情况至关重要，”Das说。)”可知，研究人员进行进一步研究是为了探索卡路里限制的长期效果。 D Ants that consume a sugary treat mixed with caffeine become noticeably better at finding their way back to it. A new study, published in Science, focused on Argentine ants, a widespread attacking species. Efforts to control them typically rely on poisonous bait (诱饵), but these strategies often fall short. The colony of ants may ignore the bait or abandon it before it spreads widely. The research team from the University of Regensburg explored whether caffeine, which is already known to enhance learning in bees, could help ants better remember bait locations and lead more nestmates to them. To investigate this idea, the scientists designed a controlled experiment using different caffeine levels. 142 ants crossed a small toy drawbridge onto a test surface, which consisted of an A4 sheet placed over acrylic (丙烯酸). There, they encountered a drop of sugar solution containing 0 ppm, 25 ppm, 250 ppm, or 2,000 ppm of caffeine. The team tracked each ant’s movement with an automated system, measuring both travel time and how direct their paths were. Ants that received only sugar showed little improvement over time, indicating they were not learning the reward’s location effectively. For ants exposed to 25 ppm of caffeine, foraging (觅食) time decreased by 28 percent with each visit. At 250 ppm, the improvement reached 38 percent. The highest caffeine level did not produce the same benefit. The improvement was not due to increased speed. Instead, caffeinated ants followed more direct routes, suggesting stronger focus and better spatial memory. Their pace remained unchanged across all doses, but their paths became less winding at the lower and intermediate levels of caffeine. The findings suggest that caffeine could play a role in improving pest control strategies for Argentine ants. By helping ants learn bait locations more quickly and bring back more nestmates, caffeine could increase how effectively poison spreads through a colony before the ants detect it. However, the researchers caution that more work is needed before applying this approach in real-world settings. 12. What inspired the research team to conduct the experiment? A. The desire to stop ant attack. B. The impact of caffeine on bees. C. The need to increase ants’ speed. D. The failure of their using previous baits. 13. What can be said about the ants exposed to 250 ppm of caffeine? A. They increased their movement speed. B. They were unable to return to their nests. C. They acquired positional memory effectively. D. They required additional duration for foraging. 14. How did caffeine affect the ants’ movement? A. It greatly increased their pace. B. It helped them avoid winding routes. C. It brought them more food choices. D. It encouraged them to explore new areas. 15. What can be the best title for the text? A. Caffeine Helping Ants Find Food Faster B. Effective Poisonous Bait Attracting Ants C. Caffeine’s Role in Controlling Ants’ Memory D. A New Way to Study Ants’ Foraging Behavior 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了科学家开展实验探究咖啡因对蚂蚁觅食记忆的影响，发现合适剂量的咖啡因能够提升蚂蚁的空间记忆能力，帮助蚂蚁更快定位食物位置，为改进蚂蚁防控策略提供了新方向。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The research team from the University of Regensburg explored whether caffeine, which is already known to enhance learning in bees, could help ants better remember bait locations and lead more nestmates to them.(雷根斯堡大学的研究团队探究咖啡因能否帮助蚂蚁更好地记住诱饵的位置，并带领更多巢穴同伴前往那里，而已知咖啡因可以增强蜜蜂的学习能力)”可知，正是咖啡因对蜜蜂的作用给了研究团队灵感，促使他们开展针对蚂蚁的相关实验。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“At 250 ppm, the improvement reached 38 percent.(摄入250ppm咖啡因的蚂蚁，每次到访所需觅食时间减少了38%)”以及第四段“Instead, caffeinated ants followed more direct routes, suggesting stronger focus and better spatial memory...their paths became less winding at the lower and intermediate levels of caffeine.(相反，摄入咖啡因的蚂蚁会走更直接的路线，这说明它们注意力更集中，空间记忆也更好……在中低等剂量咖啡因的作用下，蚂蚁的路线蜿蜒程度更低)”可知，250ppm属于中低剂量区间，该剂量下的蚂蚁能有效获得位置记忆，缩短觅食时间，路线也更笔直。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Their pace remained unchanged across all doses, but their paths became less winding at the lower and intermediate levels of caffeine.(所有剂量组中蚂蚁的步速都没有变化，但是在中低等剂量咖啡因的作用下，蚂蚁的路线蜿蜒程度更低)”可知，咖啡因帮助蚂蚁避开了蜿蜒的路线，让路线更直接。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文并结合第一段首句“Ants that consume a sugary treat mixed with caffeine become noticeably better at finding their way back to it.(食用混合咖啡因的含糖食物的蚂蚁明显更善于找到回去的路)”可知，文章开篇指出研究发现摄入添加了咖啡因的含糖食物的蚂蚁，能更高效地找到食物位置，之后介绍实验过程和结果，证实合适剂量的咖啡因可以改善蚂蚁的空间记忆，帮助蚂蚁更快找到食物，因此“Caffeine Helping Ants Find Food Faster(咖啡因帮助蚂蚁更快找到食物)”最适合作为全文标题。 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。 How to Break Free from Guilt I have missed a friend’s milestone birthday, haven’t returned my dad’s phone call, and won’t be able to make it to my kid’s marching band event. ____16____ This complex, painful emotion can motivate you to make positive changes, such as reducing your carbon footprint or repairing a relationship. However, guilt can go too far or be unhealthy, and even when it serves a purpose, it can cause unnecessary anxiety and anger. Sometimes, when you do something that makes you feel guilty, you tend to blame it on your character weaknesses. This tendency to overgeneralize consists of inaccurate perspectives that can have a negative effect on your mental health. ____17____ For example, acknowledging that you forgot a friend’s birthday is vastly different from telling yourself that you are a bad friend. ____18____ Guilt is a sticky emotion that can become a habit, but you can challenge that feeling by quieting your inner critic. Start by asking if the expectations you set for yourself are realistic or fair. You can tell yourself repeatedly that it’s fine and normal that others will be disappointed. You can also try talking to yourself as if you were comforting a friend, reframing the situation through a more tolerant perspective. Instead of saying “I messed it up”, you might say, “____19____” The key is not to beat yourself up, but to think of a way to move forward rather than living in the past. ____20____ We are having a wonderful breakfast, and beforehand, I will run and get her a bunch of flowers from the supermarket. A. I couldn’t do it better next time. B. This didn’t go as I intended, but I tried my best. C. Another powerful strategy is to practice self-forgiveness. D. Tomorrow, I’m meeting the friend whose birthday I forgot. E. If you’re anything like me, guilt can be an everyday experience. F. Nevertheless, you’d better choose to forget anything insignificant, G. Therefore, it is essential to focus on your actions rather than your character. 【答案】16. E 17. G 18. C 19. B 20.

Life was throwing a lot of changes at him, and one of the biggest was related to his older brother, Conor, who had just turned 19, got his driver’s license, and was busy with his own business. I noticed Aidan seem a bit lonely. That’s when he came up with the idea of starting a dog-walking business. He was so sure his idea was a good one that I gave him permission to hang the signs on the information boards in the four surrounding blocks, advertising the dog-walking business: $3 for half a day, and $5 for a whole day. Just looking at the smile on his face when he prepared to post the signs, which would begin it all, was magic. Aidan was a great kid and very reliable, and I hoped someone would help him achieve his goals, and fill his summer with confidence and purpose. The next day, Aidan received a call. A lady had set up an appointment for him to walk her dog. I was so happy and proud to hear the news. But then, it turned out that the “lady” was actually a young girl whose summer responsibility included walking the family dog. Her father wouldn’t pay Aidan to do her job. Aidan’s face fell, but he tried to stay positive. Then another call came. “This is it!” Aidan said, his eyes lighting up. But it was a prank (恶作剧). He ended up being tricked into going to an address, where he nervously introduced himself to a couple. The couple actually claimed they didn’t contact Aidan, and they didn’t want Aidan to walk their dog, either. And there were others calling to laugh at Aidan and even question why he thought someone would pay him just for walking a dog. 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。 With one failure after another, Aidan was almost losing heart. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Things changed one day when I talked to our neighbor, Sheila. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 With one failure after another, Aidan was almost losing heart. Continuous disappointments and ridiculous pranks completely destroyed his initial passion for his small dog-walking business. He had devoted plenty of time and energy to preparing posters and waiting for orders, only to be fooled and doubted by strangers again and again. Gradually, he no longer talked excitedly about his dog-walking plan every day, nor did he check his phone frequently for possible calls. He even decided to take down the signs. Seeing his frustration and self-doubt, I knew my boy needed a little boost. “I know it’s been a rough few days, Aidan, but you didn’t do anything wrong,” I said, trying to comfort him. Things changed one day when I talked to our neighbor, Sheila. During our casual chat, Sheila mentioned that she was extremely busy with her daily work and had no extra time to walk her pet dog. I sincerely told her about Aidan’s serious attitude, reliable personality and his recent frustrating experience. Deeply touched by his courage and persistence, Sheila decided to give Aidan a precious chance. Overjoyed and grateful, Aidan took the task very seriously every single day. His careful service and responsible attitude won high praise from Sheila. Word soon spread among neighbors, and more people began to trust and support him. Eventually, his small business got on track, helping him regain confidence and harvest precious growth in the summer. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索，讲述儿子艾丹16岁，因哥哥忙碌倍感孤单，于是想出遛狗赚钱的主意，张贴价目广告。他满怀期待，可接到的电话要么是别人分内之事无法付费，要么是恶作剧，还有人嘲笑他，艾丹虽失落仍努力保持乐观。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，本段可以写接连失败与恶作剧消磨了艾丹的热情，他打算撤下广告，作者出言安慰失落的他。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，本段可以写邻居希拉得知艾丹的经历后给他机会，他认真负责获好评，生意步入正轨，重拾信心获得成长。 2.续写线索：艾丹的热情逐渐失去——作者出言安慰——邻居希拉给他机会——收获好评——生意步入正轨——重拾信心 3.词类激活： 行为类： 决定：decide/determine/make up one’s mind 感动：touch/move 情绪类： 激动地：excitedly/with excitement 令人沮丧的：frustrating/disappointing/disheartening 【点睛】【高分句型1】Seeing his frustration and self-doubt, I knew my boy needed a little boost.
