第二部分 阅读理解(共两节,每题2.5分,满分50分)
第一节 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
The greening of planes, trains and automobiles
Moving goods and people around the world is responsible for a large part of global CO2 emissions (排放). As the world races to decarbonize everything, it faces particular problems with transportation — which accounts for about a quarter of our energy-related greenhouse gas emissions. Here’s the breakdown of the emissions in 2018 for different modes of transport.
The fuels for transport need to be not just green, cheap and powerful, but also lightweight and safe enough to be carried around. Each mode of transport has its specific fuel needs. Much is still to be settled, but here are some of the solutions to get us going green.
PLANES — Synthetic hydrocarbons
The hardest sector to decarbonize is aviation. One long-term option for sustainable fuel for planes is to make hydrocarbons from recycled air.
CARS — Batteries
Batteries are energy-efficient and electric cars can plug into existing systems and services. New solid-state batteries will take a car farther on a single charge.
TRAINS — Electricity
Some trains are already electrified through rails or wires; others can be made electric in pretty simple ways.
TRUCKS — Hydrogen
fuel cells
Hydrogen fuel cells are a lighter choice than batteries for trucks, but making green hydrogen is expensive.
SHIPS — Liquid ammonia
Liquid ammonia is easy to keep and transport, but it is hard to ignite (点燃) and requires an engine redesign.
This energy transition (变革) is global, and the amount of renewable energy the world will need is “a little bit mind-blowing,” says mechanical engineer Keith Wipke at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. It’s estimated that the global demand for electricity could more than double by 2050. Fortunately, analyses suggest that renewables are up to the task. “We need to speed up the development of green energy, and it will all get used,” says Wipke.
1. What percentage of global transport emissions did road vehicles account for in 2018?
A. 11.6%. B. 45.1%. C. 74.5%. D. 86.1%.
2. Which mode of transport can go green comparatively easily?
A. Planes. B. Trucks. C. Trains. D. Ships.
3. What does Wipke suggest regarding energy transition?
A. Limiting fuel consumption. B. Putting more effort into renewables.
C. Improving energy efficiency. D. Making electricity more affordable.
B
It all started on a stoop (门廊). I picked up a book and started reading to the neighborhood kids. When I finished reading, the kids didn’t want story time to stop. So I said, “You guys can read a book at home.” “We don’t have any books at home.” they responded. It was an unpleasant reminder that there are children who don’t have a single book at home.
As a public librarian, I quickly realized that the kids that I saw coming into the library weren’t the same ones I was reading to out on my front stoop. I learned about something called book deserts. A book desert is an area or a community with limited access to books and reading materials.
I was aware that I wasn’t going to meet my neighbors who need it most inside library’s walls. So I quit my job and took to the streets, becoming a street librarian who is doing work to increase literary access outside of traditional settings.
Book deserts are often found in economically disadvantaged areas, where bookstores and libraries are not enough. Lower-income neighbors may lack the resources to buy books from the bookstore or pay library fines. Residents may be working multiple jobs or facing hardships that make a trip to the library an additional stress. Requirement of identification, fines and fees, all while seemingly normal, can become difficult for families facing hardships.
Therefore, I’m making books appear in everyday places in extraordinary ways. I fix free public book vending machines (自助售书机), host street-corner story times, and pop up on the block with free bookstores, so kids who don’t have McDonald’s money don’t have to worry about having book-fair money. You’ll find me delivering books to your front stoop. I have delivered 5,000 books to children living in book deserts.
I believe everyone is a reader. They just haven’t found the right book yet. And that’s where librarians step in. We must meet them where they are and guide them along that journey.
4. What inspired the author to become a street librarian?
A. The kids’ lack of books at home.
B. The kids’ request for more stories.
C. Her love for reading books on stoops.
D. Her curiosity for seeking book deserts.
5. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. The causes of book deserts.
B. The struggles of a street librarian.
C. The challenges of working more jobs.
D. The importance of traditional libraries.
6. How does the author help kids in book deserts?
A. By lowering book prices. B. By donating money to them.
C. By inviting them to schools. D. By providing free books.
7. What can we conclude from the text?
A. Street libraries will replace public ones.
B. Librarians should reach out to readers.
C. Libraries should maintain traditional rules.
D. Book deserts exist even in rich areas.
C
Recently, a video of four snow leopards climbing snowy cliffs (峭壁) in northern Pakistan made environmentalists very excited. Snow leopards are one kind of animals that are hard to find in the wild. Seeing just one on camera is difficult, let alone four at a time. This sighting is seen as a big win for Pakistan’s efforts to protect wildlife.
Sakhawat Ali, a park worker who loves taking photos, filmed the snow leopards. He spent two weeks following their footprints in the Central Karakoram National Park, which is always covered in snow. It turned out that the four snow leopards were a mother and her three babies. Ali said that while people in his village often saw snow leopards, no one had ever seen four together before. He first saw the mother leopard. Then, he noticed more pawprints around. Later, from the roof of his house, he used binoculars (双筒望远镜) to look at a nearby cliff and was lucky enough to see all four leopards together. He quickly got his camera and filmed them from about 200 meters away.
People in Ali’s village were happy about the sighting. However, they were also a bit worried that the leopards might attack their farm animals.
Snow leopards are considered “vulnerable”, which means they are at risk of becoming endangered. They only live in high-altitude (海拔) mountains in the Himalayas, so they are seldom seen. The World Wildlife Fund in Pakistan said the sighting is a good sign, but snow leopards are still in danger.
Snow leopards face many threats, like losing their homes and not having enough food. According to the United Nations, human activities and more livestock are harming the land where snow leopards live. This makes it harder for them to find food. Other problems include people hunting them illegally, new building projects destroying their habitats, and climate change making the situation worse. Given the terrible situation, it’s necessary that local communities work together to protect these amazing animals. Only in this way will future generations be able to see snow leopards in the wild.
8. Why did the sighting of four snow leopards excite environmentalists?
A. It was a signal that the local climate was improving.
B. It was unusual that snow leopards appeared in a group.
C. It proved that snow leopards were no longer endangered.
D. It indicated that snow leopards could adapt to new habitats.
9. How did Sakhawat Ali manage to film the snow leopards?
A. By asking his neighbors for help. B. By tracking and observing them carefully.
C. By waiting patiently near the cliff for long. D. By using advanced technology to search the mountains.
10. What is the villagers’ attitude towards the sighting?
A. Mixed. B. Proud. C. Doubtful. D. Uncaring.
11. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the last paragraph?
A. To describe the challenges for animals. B. To show human activities’ influence on wildlife.
C. To call for collective efforts to protect snow leopards. D. To tell about the great adaptability of snow leopards.
D
When you think of a robot, you might picture something with a lot of sensors (传感器), and inflexible metal arms controlled by a computer. But scientists at the AMOLF Institute have created a robot that has no brain and no sensors. It carries its own battery-powered pump (泵). And yet this robot can “walk” by itself.
How is this possible? The team behind the robot says the secret is in the science of how air moves. If you’ve ever seen a “tube (管子) dancer” walking around, then you’ve seen the science that makes this robot work. Tube dancers are tall thin tubes of cloth, through which air is pumped. High pressure from the pumped air fills the tube, making it stand up.
Similarly, the pressure caused by the flow of air is exactly what drives the robot. When the air starts to flow in the tubes, the tubes move in different ways. But very quickly, all of these “legs” start to move in exactly the same way, making the robot walk. The robot’s speed is controlled by the air pressure.
There are several notable things about the robot. The first is its speed. The robot can cover a distance equal to thirty times the length of its body in a second. That would be like the world’s fastest man, Usain Bolt, running the 100-meter race in 9.58 seconds.
The robot also adjusts smoothly to its conditions. It can go over uneven ground. If it runs into a wall, it naturally turns. Perhaps the most surprising is the fact that if the robot is dropped into water, it begins moving in a new way that allows it to swim.
As there’s no brain, the scientists say their new invention is really just a machine. But it’s a machine that can do several complicated (复杂的) tasks that would normally require lots of very difficult programming for a robot.
So far, the robot can conduct most of the tasks with ease. The researchers say that in the future they hope to develop new ways to control the robot and perhaps give it more skills.
12. Why is the tube dancer mentioned in paragraph 2?
A. To stress the robot’s uniqueness.
B. To present the inspiration for the robot.
C. To introduce another impressive invention.
D. To make the robot’s way of working easy to understand.
13. What enables the robot to move forward?
A. The air pressure. B. The computer-controlled system.
C. The human operator. D. The combination of batteries and sensors.
14. What can we learn about the robot from the text?
A. It can beat Bolt in a running race.
B. It requires complicated programming.
C. It may have more functions added in the future.
D. It features a higher intelligence level than other robots.
15. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A. The Sensor-Free Robot.
B. The Energy-Saving Robot.
C. The Science of Air Pressure.
D. The Development of Robots.

Don’t Let Personality Types Define You
Personality tests, especially the Myers-Briggs type indicator (MBTI), are popular tools that many people use to better understand themselves and their relationships with others. MBTI sorts people into 16 different personality types based on four key categories. Although these tests can provide useful insights, it’s important not to let them define or limit you.
____16____ But people are complex. Our personalities can change over time, depending on experiences and growth. What the MBTI test reveals is just a snapshot of one’s preferences, not a complete definition of who you are. For example, if the test labels you as an “introvert” (性格内向的人), you may feel tempted to avoid social communication because you think it’s not in your nature to be outgoing. But you might find that your ability to enjoy social events increases over time. The key is not to accept the label as an unchangeable fact. ____17____
Similarly, if you are categorized as a “thinking” type, it might lead you to believe that you are always rational. However, emotional response is also an important part of human nature. ____18____ And embracing them can enhance your decision-making process and relationships.
Additionally, many people get caught up in the idea that their “type” limits their careers or personal choices. They might think, for instance, that an “introvert” would not be a good leader. ____19____ Many introverts achieve success through careful listening and thoughtful decision-making. Don’t let the MBTI label stop you from pursuing opportunities that feel right for you.
Finally, one of the most important lessons we can learn from the MBTI is that we are not defined by one test or label. ____20____ By focusing on our strengths and embracing the full complexity of our personalities, we can lead richer and more fulfilling lives. We are all more than the labels we receive.
A. The reality is that everyone has something he or she excels in.
B. The test results should be seen as a guide, not a limitation.
C. The MBTI system provides a simple way to categorize individuals based on their preferences.
D. But there are countless examples of introverts excelling in these types of roles.
E. You should see it as a starting point for self-reflection and growth.
F. It’s essential to understand that both parts of the personality are valuable.
G. The MBTI system can sometimes prevent individuals from realizing their full potential.

第二节(满分25分)
57. I had always thought my father was cold and unfeeling. Unlike other dads who hugged their kids and talked warmly, mine was a man of few words. He worked as a repairman, coming home late every day, his hands always dirty with oil and his clothes worn out. He rarely attended my school events and never praised me openly. As a teenager, I grew increasingly distant from him. I would avoid eating with the family, stay in my room all weekend, and even roll my eyes when he tried to talk to me. I believed he didn’t care about me at all.
One rainy afternoon, I came home early from school. The house was quiet. I walked into the garage to look for my lost basketball. There, in the corner, I saw my father’s old toolbox. It was worn and rusty, with my name carved on the side. Curious, I opened it. Inside were not only screwdrivers and wrenches but also my broken toys, my old bike chain, and even a faded photo of me as a kid. At that moment, my father walked in. He froze when he saw me holding the photo, his face nervous and shy.
续写段首:
Paragraph 1: I stared at the toolbox, my heart filled with mixed feelings.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: From that day on, our relationship began to change.

It all started on a stoop (门廊). I picked up a book and started reading to the neighborhood kids. When I finished reading, the kids didn’t want story time to stop. So I said, “You guys can read a book at home.” “We don’t have any books at home.” they responded. It was an unpleasant reminder that there are children who don’t have a single book at home.
As a public librarian, I quickly realized that the kids that I saw coming into the library weren’t the same ones I was reading to out on my front stoop. I learned about something called book deserts. A book desert is an area or a community with limited access to books and reading materials.
I was aware that I wasn’t going to meet my neighbors who need it most inside library’s walls. So I quit my job and took to the streets, becoming a street librarian who is doing work to increase literary access outside of traditional settings.
Book deserts are often found in economically disadvantaged areas, where bookstores and libraries are not enough. Lower-income neighbors may lack the resources to buy books from the bookstore or pay library fines. Residents may be working multiple jobs or facing hardships that make a trip to the library an additional stress. Requirement of identification, fines and fees, all while seemingly normal, can become difficult for families facing hardships.
Therefore, I’m making books appear in everyday places in extraordinary ways. I fix free public book vending machines (自助售书机), host street-corner story times, and pop up on the block with free bookstores, so kids who don’t have McDonald’s money don’t have to worry about having book-fair money. You’ll find me delivering books to your front stoop. I have delivered 5,000 books to children living in book deserts.
I believe everyone is a reader. They just haven’t found the right book yet. And that’s where librarians step in. We must meet them where they are and guide them along that journey.
4. What inspired the author to become a street librarian?
A. The kids’ lack of books at home.
B. The kids’ request for more stories.
C. Her love for reading books on stoops.
D. Her curiosity for seeking book deserts.
5. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. The causes of book deserts.
B. The struggles of a street librarian.

D. The importance of traditional libraries.
6. How does the author help kids in book deserts?
A. By lowering book prices. B. By donating money to them.
C. By inviting them to schools. D. By providing free books.
7. What can we conclude from the text?
A. Street libraries will replace public ones.
B. Librarians should reach out to readers.
C. Libraries should maintain traditional rules.
D. Book deserts exist even in rich areas.
【答案】4. A 5. A 6. D 7. B

Recently, a video of four snow leopards climbing snowy cliffs (峭壁) in northern Pakistan made environmentalists very excited. Snow leopards are one kind of animals that are hard to find in the wild. Seeing just one on camera is difficult, let alone four at a time. This sighting is seen as a big win for Pakistan’s efforts to protect wildlife.
Sakhawat Ali, a park worker who loves taking photos, filmed the snow leopards. He spent two weeks following their footprints in the Central Karakoram National Park, which is always covered in snow. It turned out that the four snow leopards were a mother and her three babies. Ali said that while people in his village often saw snow leopards, no one had ever seen four together before. He first saw the mother leopard. Then, he noticed more pawprints around. Later, from the roof of his house, he used binoculars (双筒望远镜) to look at a nearby cliff and was lucky enough to see all four leopards together. He quickly got his camera and filmed them from about 200 meters away.
People in Ali’s village were happy about the sighting. However, they were also a bit worried that the leopards might attack their farm animals.
Snow leopards are considered “vulnerable”, which means they are at risk of becoming endangered. They only live in high-altitude (海拔) mountains in the Himalayas, so they are seldom seen. The World Wildlife Fund in Pakistan said the sighting is a good sign, but snow leopards are still in danger.
Snow leopards face many threats, like losing their homes and not having enough food. According to the United Nations, human activities and more livestock are harming the land where snow leopards live. This makes it harder for them to find food. Other problems include people hunting them illegally, new building projects destroying their habitats, and climate change making the situation worse. Given the terrible situation, it’s necessary that local communities work together to protect these amazing animals. Only in this way will future generations be able to see snow leopards in the wild.
8. Why did the sighting of four snow leopards excite environmentalists?
A. It was a signal that the local climate was improving.
B. It was unusual that snow leopards appeared in a group.
C. It proved that snow leopards were no longer endangered.
D. It indicated that snow leopards could adapt to new habitats.
9. How did Sakhawat Ali manage to film the snow leopards?
A. By asking his neighbors for help. B. By tracking and observing them carefully.
C. By waiting patiently near the cliff for long. D. By using advanced technology to search the mountains.
10. What is the villagers’ attitude towards the sighting?
A. Mixed. B. Proud. C. Doubtful. D. Uncaring.
11. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the last paragraph?
A. To describe the challenges for animals. B. To show human activities’ influence on wildlife.
C. To call for collective efforts to protect snow leopards. D. To tell about the great adaptability of snow leopards.
【答案】8. B 9. B 10. A 11. C

When you think of a robot, you might picture something with a lot of sensors (传感器), and inflexible metal arms controlled by a computer. But scientists at the AMOLF Institute have created a robot that has no brain and no sensors. It carries its own battery-powered pump (泵). And yet this robot can “walk” by itself.
How is this possible? The team behind the robot says the secret is in the science of how air moves. If you’ve ever seen a “tube (管子) dancer” walking around, then you’ve seen the science that makes this robot work. Tube dancers are tall thin tubes of cloth, through which air is pumped. High pressure from the pumped air fills the tube, making it stand up.
Similarly, the pressure caused by the flow of air is exactly what drives the robot. When the air starts to flow in the tubes, the tubes move in different ways. But very quickly, all of these “legs” start to move in exactly the same way, making the robot walk. The robot’s speed is controlled by the air pressure.
There are several notable things about the robot. The first is its speed. The robot can cover a distance equal to thirty times the length of its body in a second. That would be like the world’s fastest man, Usain Bolt, running the 100-meter race in 9.58 seconds.
The robot also adjusts smoothly to its conditions. It can go over uneven ground. If it runs into a wall, it naturally turns. Perhaps the most surprising is the fact that if the robot is dropped into water, it begins moving in a new way that allows it to swim.
As there’s no brain, the scientists say their new invention is really just a machine. But it’s a machine that can do several complicated (复杂的) tasks that would normally require lots of very difficult programming for a robot.
So far, the robot can conduct most of the tasks with ease. The researchers say that in the future they hope to develop new ways to control the robot and perhaps give it more skills.
12. Why is the tube dancer mentioned in paragraph 2?
A. To stress the robot’s uniqueness.
B. To present the inspiration for the robot.
C. To introduce another impressive invention.
D. To make the robot’s way of working easy to understand.
13. What enables the robot to move forward?
A. The air pressure. B. The computer-controlled system.
C. The human operator. D. The combination of batteries and sensors.
14. What can we learn about the robot from the text?
A. It can beat Bolt in a running race.
B. It requires complicated programming.
C. It may have more functions added in the future.
D. It features a higher intelligence level than other robots.
15. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A. The Sensor-Free Robot.
B. The Energy-Saving Robot.
C. The Science of Air Pressure.
D. The Development of Robots.
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. A
【解析】

推理判断题。根据第二段中“If you’ve ever seen a “tube (管子) dancer” walking around, then you’ve seen the science that makes this robot work. Tube dancers are tall thin tubes of cloth, through which air is pumped. High pressure from the pumped air fills the tube, making it stand up. (如果你见过“充气舞者”摇摆晃动的样子,那你已经见识过让这个机器人运作的科学原理了。充气舞者是一种细高的布制管状物,通过向内部充气来驱动。泵入的高压空气充满管体,使其直立起来)”可知,作者提到tube dancer“充气舞者”是为了通过常见现象类比说明机器人工作原理,使这一复杂概念易于读者理解。故选D项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Similarly, the pressure caused by the flow of air is exactly what drives the robot. (同样地,正是气流产生的压力驱动着这个机器人)”可知,气流压力使机器人能够向前移动。故选A项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“The researchers say that in the future they hope to develop new ways to control the robot and perhaps give it more skills. (研究人员表示,未来他们希望开发新的控制方式,或许还能赋予这款机器人更多技能)”可知,这款机器人未来可能增加更多功能。故选C项。

Don’t Let Personality Types Define You
Personality tests, especially the Myers-Briggs type indicator (MBTI), are popular tools that many people use to better understand themselves and their relationships with others. MBTI sorts people into 16 different personality types based on four key categories. Although these tests can provide useful insights, it’s important not to let them define or limit you.
____16____ But people are complex. Our personalities can change over time, depending on experiences and growth. What the MBTI test reveals is just a snapshot of one’s preferences, not a complete definition of who you are. For example, if the test labels you as an “introvert” (性格内向的人), you may feel tempted to avoid social communication because you think it’s not in your nature to be outgoing. But you might find that your ability to enjoy social events increases over time. The key is not to accept the label as an unchangeable fact. ____17____
Similarly, if you are categorized as a “thinking” type, it might lead you to believe that you are always rational. However, emotional response is also an important part of human nature. ____18____ And embracing them can enhance your decision-making process and relationships.
Additionally, many people get caught up in the idea that their “type” limits their careers or personal choices. They might think, for instance, that an “introvert” would not be a good leader. ____19____ Many introverts achieve success through careful listening and thoughtful decision-making. Don’t let the MBTI label stop you from pursuing opportunities that feel right for you.
Finally, one of the most important lessons we can learn from the MBTI is that we are not defined by one test or label. ____20____ By focusing on our strengths and embracing the full complexity of our personalities, we can lead richer and more fulfilling lives. We are all more than the labels we receive.
A. The reality is that everyone has something he or she excels in.
B. The test results should be seen as a guide, not a limitation.
C. The MBTI system provides a simple way to categorize individuals based on their preferences.
D. But there are countless examples of introverts excelling in these types of roles.
E. You should see it as a starting point for self-reflection and growth.
F. It’s essential to understand that both parts of the personality are valuable.
G. The MBTI system can sometimes prevent individuals from realizing their full potential.
【答案】16. C 17. E 18. F 19. D 20. B
【解析】
【导语】本文以MBTI人格测试为例,分析了不应被人格类型定义、限制自我的原因,倡导人们正确看待人格测试标签,接纳人格的复杂性。
【16题详解】
根据下文“But people are complex.(但是人是复杂的。)”可知,空处内容需要与这句话构成转折关系,C项“The MBTI system provides a simple way to categorize individuals based on their preferences.(MBTI系统提供了一种基于个人偏好对个体进行分类的简单方法。)”和后文的转折描述逻辑契合。下文“What the MBTI test reveals is just a snapshot of one’s preferences, not a complete definition of who you are.(MBTI测试揭示的仅仅是个人偏好的简要快照,而非对你这个人的完整定义。)”提到MBTI测试只是简单地揭示个人偏好,并不能全面反映整个人,对应了选项C对MBTI分类方式的描述。
【17题详解】
上文“The key is not to accept the label as an unchangeable fact.(关键在于不要把这个标签当作不可改变的事实接受下来。)”指出不应将MBTI标签当成固定结论,此处需要承接上文给出正确看待测试结果的态度,E项“You should see it as a starting point for self-reflection and growth.(你应该把它看作自我反思和成长的起点。)”承接上文,it指代上文的the label。
【18题详解】
上文“Similarly, if you are categorized as a “thinking” type, it might lead you to believe that you are always rational. However, emotional response is also an important part of human nature.(类似地,如果你被划分为“思考型”人格,这可能会让你相信你永远是理性的。然而,情绪反应也是人性中重要的一部分。)”指出思考型人格也具备情绪特质,下文“And embracing them can enhance your decision-making process and relationships.(接纳它们可以优化你的决策过程、改善你的人际关系。)”指出接纳两种特质的好处,F项“It’s essential to understand that both parts of the personality are valuable.(必须要明白,人格的这两部分都是有价值的。)”承上启下,符合逻辑,both parts of the personality指代上文提到的“理性”和“感性”特质,引出下文接纳的好处。
【19题详解】
上文“Additionally, many people get caught up in the idea that their “type” limits their careers or personal choices. They might think, for instance, that an “introvert” would not be a good leader.(此外,许多人陷入了这样的想法,即他们的“类型”限制了他们的职业或个人选择。比如,他们可能会认为性格内向的人无法成为好的领导者。)”给出了人们用MBTI标签限制职业选择的错误观点,下文“Many introverts achieve success through careful listening and thoughtful decision-making.(很多内向者通过认真倾听、深思熟虑的决策取得成功。)”举例反驳了这一观点,D项“But there are countless examples of introverts excelling in these types of roles.(但是有无数内向者在这类角色上表现出色的例子。)”反驳了错误观点,引出下文例子。
【20题详解】
上文“Finally, one of the most important lessons we can learn from the MBTI is that we are not defined by one test or label.(最后,我们从MBTI中学到的最重要的一个启示就是,我们不会被一次测试或一个标签定义。)”指出不要被一次标签或测试定义自己,下文“By focusing on our strengths and embracing the full complexity of our personalities, we can lead richer and more fulfilling lives.(通过聚焦我们的优势,接纳我们人格的全部复杂性,我们可以过上更丰富、更充实的生活。)”指出了正确对待MBTI的做法,B项“The test results should be seen as a guide, not a limitation.(测试结果应该被看作指导,而非限制。)”承接上文不应被标签定义的观点,引出下文的正确态度。

第二节(满分25分)
57. I had always thought my father was cold and unfeeling. Unlike other dads who hugged their kids and talked warmly, mine was a man of few words. He worked as a repairman, coming home late every day, his hands always dirty with oil and his clothes worn out. He rarely attended my school events and never praised me openly. As a teenager, I grew increasingly distant from him. I would avoid eating with the family, stay in my room all weekend, and even roll my eyes when he tried to talk to me. I believed he didn’t care about me at all.
One rainy afternoon, I came home early from school. The house was quiet. I walked into the garage to look for my lost basketball. There, in the corner, I saw my father’s old toolbox. It was worn and rusty, with my name carved on the side. Curious, I opened it. Inside were not only screwdrivers and wrenches but also my broken toys, my old bike chain, and even a faded photo of me as a kid. At that moment, my father walked in. He froze when he saw me holding the photo, his face nervous and shy.
续写段首:
Paragraph 1: I stared at the toolbox, my heart filled with mixed feelings.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: From that day on, our relationship began to change.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文:
Paragraph 1: I stared at the toolbox, my heart filled with mixed feelings. I had never imagined that my silent father had kept all my childhood things. He had been fixing my toys and repairing my bike quietly all these years, but I had never said thank you. Tears welled up in my eyes. I looked at my father’s rough hands and realized how much he had sacrificed for the family. His love was not loud, but it was deep and steady.
Paragraph 2: From that day on, our relationship began to change. I started talking to him after dinner, asking about his work and sharing my school life. To my surprise, he listened carefully and gave me practical advice. We often sat in the garage together, fixing things or just chatting. I finally understood that true love is not about words but about actions. I will cherish every moment with my father and repay his love with my own.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。作者一直觉得父亲冷漠寡言,从不拥抱表扬自己,于是逐渐疏远他。一个雨天,作者提早回家,在车库角落发现父亲的旧工具箱,里面竟藏着自己的旧玩具、断掉的自行车链条和一张褪色照片。这时父亲走进来,看到作者拿着照片,紧张地愣住了。
