These gentle, lovely gatekeepers welcomed her and kick-started what was to be a trip Ginni would never forget. Ever since her childhood, Ginni, now 71, has had a deep love for travel. Throughout her career (职业) as a professional dancer, she toured in the UK, but always longed to explore further. When she retired from dancing and her sons eventually flew the nest, she decided it was time to take the plunge. After taking a degree at Chichester University in Related Arts, Ginni began to travel the world, eventually getting work teaching English in Japan and Chile. And it was in Chile she discovered she could get last-minute cheap deals on ships going to Antarctica from the islands off Tierra del Fuego, the southernmost tip of the South American mainland. “I just decided I wanted to go,” she says. “I had no idea about what I’d find there and I wasn’t nervous, I just wanted to do it. And I wanted to do it alone as I always prefer it that way.” In March 2008, Ginni boarded a ship with 48 passengers she’d never met before, to begin the journey towards Antarctica. “From seeing the wildlife to witnessing sunrises, the whole experience was amazing. Antarctica left an impression on me that no other place has,” Ginni says. “I remember the first time I saw a humpback whale; it just rose out of the water like some prehistoric creature and I thought it was smiling at us. You could still hear the operatic sounds it was making underwater.” The realization that this is a precious land, to be respected by humans, was one of the biggest things that hit home to Ginni. 4. Which of the following best explains “take the plunge” underlined in paragraph 2? A. Try challenging things. B. Take a degree. C. Bring back lost memories. D. Stick to a promise. 5. What made Ginni decide on the trip to Antarctica? A. Lovely penguins. B. Beautiful scenery. C. A discount fare. D. A friend’s invitation. 6. What does Ginni think about Antarctica after the journey? A. It could be a home for her. B. It should be easily accessible. C. It should be well preserved. D. It needs to be fully introduced. 7. What is the text mainly about? A. A childhood dream. B. An unforgettable experience. C. Sailing around the world. D. Meeting animals in Antarctica. C Over the last seven years, most states have banned texting by drivers, and public service campaigns have tried a wide range of methods to persuade people to put down their phones when they are behind the wheel. Yet the problem, by just about any measure, appears to be getting worse. Americans are still texting while driving, as well as using social networks and taking photos. Road accidents, which had fallen for years, are now rising sharply. That is partly because people are driving more, but Mark Rosekind, the chief of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, said distracted（分心）driving was "only increasing, unfortunately." "Big change requires big ideas." he said in a speech last month, referring broadly to the need to improve road safety. So to try to change a distinctly modern behavior, lawmakers and public health experts are reaching back to an old approach: They want to treat distracted driving like drunk driving. An idea from lawmakers in New York is to give police officers a new device called the Textalyzer. It would work like this: An officer arriving at the scene of a crash could ask for the phones of the drivers and use the Textalyzer to check in the operating system for recent activity. The technology could determine whether a driver had just texted, emailed or done anything else that is not allowed under New York's hands-free driving laws. "We need something on the books that can change people's behavior,” said Félix W. Ortiz, who pushed for the state's 2001 ban on hand-held devices by drivers. If the Textalyzer bill becomes law, he said, "people are going to be more afraid to put their hands on the cell phone." 8. Which of the following best describes the ban on drivers' texting in the US? A. Ineffective. B. Unnecessary. C. Inconsistent. D. Unfair. 9. What can the Textalyzer help a police officer find out? A. Where a driver came from. B. Whether a driver used their phone. C. How fast a driver was going. D. When a driver arrived at the scene. 10. What does the underlined word "something" in the last paragraph refer to? A. Advice. B. Data. C. Tests. D. Laws. 11. What is a suitable title for the text? A. To Drive or Not to Drive? Think Before You Start B. Texting and Driving? Watch Out for the Textalyzer C. New York Banning Hand-Held Devices by Drivers. D. The Next Generation Cell Phone: The Textalyzer. D Animals perform tasks that their bodies are well designed for. That’s because their intelligence evolved（进化）with their physical form as they interacted with the environment. Artificial intelligence is smart as well but it doesn’t have a body. Agrim Gupta of Stanford University and his colleagues wondered: Does having bodies matter for the evolution of intelligence? To answer it, they created a virtual robot named “unimal” and studied how having virtual bodies affected the evolution of the unimals’ intelligence. Unimals are pretty simple with balls for heads and cylinders for anns and legs. The test environments came in three varieties: flat areas, areas filled with hills, steps and broken stones, and areas that had the complexities of the second sort, but with added objects that unimals need to move to a target location. At first, the unimals were in random shapes, but with identical software running them. In groups of four, Dr Gupta put them through tests of agility, stability, and ability to control objects. Then each group’s winner was allowed to give birth to a daughter with one mutation（变异）, for example, an extra leg for stability. This daughter was sent to a new group to be tested. The process repeated and the test ended after ten generations of evolution. The diversity of the unimals’ shapes that evolved surprised the team. Some had arms as well as legs while others had only legs. Crucially, though, the researchers found the most successful unimals, which evolved in the toughest environment, learned tasks faster and better than their ancestors. This consists with the Baldwin effect, which suggests that minds evolve to make best use of the morphologies（形态）of the bodies they find themselves in. It’s believed that the result will provide insights for developing robots that can learn to perform multiple tasks in the real world. 12. What did Agrim Gupta’s team study? A. How animals perform tasks. B. How unimals are created randomly. C. How animals interact with the environment. D. How having virtual bodies influences AI evolution. 13. What makes the third test environment the toughest? A. Stones to be picked. B. More steps to be counted. C. Objects to be moved. D. Higher hills to be climbed. 14. What’s Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The test procedure. B. The running software. C. The unimals’ varieties. D. The winners’ mutations. 15. Why is the Baldwin effect mentioned in Paragraph 5? A. To compare different discoveries. B. To explain the concept of morphology. C. To support the result of Gupta’s study. D. To introduce a new way to develop robots. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分) 根据下面短文, 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。 Science is a mental toolbox for solving problems. ____16____.

I didn’t know what to get Dad. Last year I made him a photo album. This year I wanted to do something different. At dinner, Dad accidentally dropped his favorite blue tie into his soup bowl. The tie was ruined. I suddenly knew what to get Dad for Father’s Day! “How much does a tie cost?” I asked Mom the next morning. “Depends,” she said.“ Some can cost twenty dollars. Do you have enough money. Carter?” “No, ” I said sadly. When I got to my room to change into my school clothes I noticed a hole in my shirt. “Mom, I need you to sew(缝补) my shirt, I said loudly, rushing out the door to the school bus. At school I picked at the hole in my shirt. I thought about how I could come up with enough money to buy a tie. I took a deep sigh, and played with the hold some more. As the hole grew in size, an idea sprung into my mind. After coming home from school, I dug through my closet trying to find other worn clothes. “Mom! "I yelled down the hall heading towards her. Can I cut these clothes up to make Dad a patchwork(拼缝) tie for Father’s Day?” I pointed out the holes to Mom. “ I guess,” he said. “And,” I added, “Can you show me how to sew and make tiny stitches(针脚)?” “Yes, Carter. Let s start now before Dad gets home.” Mom said, heading for her sewing supplies. I followed Moms instructions and started making a patchwork tie. I gently pressed my foot on the foot pedal(缝纫机脚踏板) . Suddenly, the needle stopped and the machine made a horrible sound. “No!” I said. “Try again, Carter, ” Mom instructed. I took a deep breath and gently applied the pedal again. Unluckily, I failed again. 注意：1. 续写词数为150左右。 2. 请在相应位置作答。 “Forget it!

B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了71岁的Ginni Bazlinton从小就对旅行有着深深的热爱，渴望探险，不再跳舞和孩子们成家立业之后，她开始周游世界，并在2008年开始了前往南极洲的旅程。 【4题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段第一句“After taking a degree at Chichester University in Related Arts, Ginni began to travel the world, eventually getting work teaching English in Japan and Chile.(在奇切斯特大学获得相关艺术学位后，Ginni开始周游世界，最终在日本和智利找到了教英语的工作。)”可知，此处是指做有挑战性的事情，所以take the plunge意为“尝试有挑战性的事情”。故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“And it was in Chile she discovered she could get last-minute cheap deals on ships going to Antarctica from the islands off Tiera del Fuego. (正是在智利，她发现自己可以在最后一刻买到从火地岛附近岛屿前往南极洲的廉价船票)”可知，是折扣的票价让Ginni决定去南极洲旅行的。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“The realization that this is a precious land, to be respected by humans, was one of the biggest things that hit home to Ginni. (意识到这是一块宝贵的土地，应该受到人类的尊重，这是Ginni最深刻的感受之一)”可知，旅行结束后，Ginni认为南极洲应该得到很好的保护。故选C。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了Ginni Bazlinton去南极旅行的经历，再根据第一段“These gentle lovely gatekeepers welcomed her and kick-started what was to be a trip Ginni would never forget. (这些温柔可爱的看门人欢迎了她，并开始了一次Ginni永远不会忘记的旅行)”和倒数第二段Ginni Bazlinton对南极之旅的评价可知，文章主要介绍了Ginni Bazlinton的南极洲之旅让她非常难忘。由此可知，An unforgettable experience. (一次难忘的经历) 能够概括文章主旨。故选B。 【点睛】 C Over the last seven years, most states have banned texting by drivers, and public service campaigns have tried a wide range of methods to persuade people to put down their phones when they are behind the wheel. Yet the problem, by just about any measure, appears to be getting worse. Americans are still texting while driving, as well as using social networks and taking photos. Road accidents, which had fallen for years, are now rising sharply. That is partly because people are driving more, but Mark Rosekind, the chief of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, said distracted（分心）driving was "only increasing, unfortunately." "Big change requires big ideas." he said in a speech last month, referring broadly to the need to improve road safety. So to try to change a distinctly modern behavior, lawmakers and public health experts are reaching back to an old approach: They want to treat distracted driving like drunk driving. An idea from lawmakers in New York is to give police officers a new device called the Textalyzer. It would work like this: An officer arriving at the scene of a crash could ask for the phones of the drivers and use the Textalyzer to check in the operating system for recent activity. The technology could determine whether a driver had just texted, emailed or done anything else that is not allowed under New York's hands-free driving laws. "We need something on the books that can change people's behavior,” said Félix W. Ortiz, who pushed for the state's 2001 ban on hand-held devices by drivers. If the Textalyzer bill becomes law, he said, "people are going to be more afraid to put their hands on the cell phone." 8. Which of the following best describes the ban on drivers' texting in the US? A. Ineffective. B. Unnecessary. C. Inconsistent. D. Unfair. 9. What can the Textalyzer help a police officer find out? A. Where a driver came from. B. Whether a driver used their phone. C. How fast a driver was going. D. When a driver arrived at the scene. 10. What does the underlined word "something" in the last paragraph refer to? A. Advice. B. Data. C. Tests. D. Laws. 11. What is a suitable title for the text? A. To Drive or Not to Drive? Think Before You Start B. Texting and Driving? Watch Out for the Textalyzer C. New York Banning Hand-Held Devices by Drivers. D. The Next Generation Cell Phone: The Textalyzer. 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文一篇说明文。为解决司机在开车时使用手机造成“分神”，引发交通事故的问题，纽约的一名立法者提出使用Textalyzer（短信监控器）的技术来监控司机在开车的时候是否使用了手机。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Over the last seven years, most states have banned texting by drivers, and public service campaigns have tried a wide range of methods to persuade people to put down their phones when they are behind the wheel.”（在过去的七年里，大多数州都禁止司机发短信，公共服务活动也尝试了各种各样的方法来说服人们在开车时放下手机。）以及第二段中“Yet the problem, by just about any measure, appears to be getting worse.”（然而，无论以何种标准衡量，这个问题似乎都在恶化。）可知，大多数州使用了各种各样的方法说服司机们在开车的时候放下手机，可是情况却越来越糟糕。所以各种方法是无效的。A选项ineffective意为“无效的”，与此相符。故选A。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“The technology could determine whether a driver had just texted, emailed or done anything else that is not allowed under New York's hands-free driving laws.”（这项技术可以确定司机是否发了短信、发了邮件，或者做了纽约免提驾驶法不允许的其他事情。）可知，Textalyzer能够确定的是司机是否使用了手机发短信、邮件以及其他驾驶法不允许的行为。B 选项意为“是否司机使用了手机。”与此相符，故选B。 【10题详解】 词义猜测题。根据句中的“We need something on the books that can change people's behavior.”（我们需要一些能改变人们行为的东西，）可知，something是能够改变人们的行为的事情。根据下文的“If the Textalyzer bill becomes law, he said, "people are going to be more afraid to put their hands on the cell phone.”（他说，如果Textalyzer法案成为法律，“人们会更害怕拿起手机。）可知，人们的行为会改变的条件是当Textalyzer法案成为法律。受到法律的约束和惩罚，司机们才不会在开车的时候使用手机。故something指代的是法律。故选D。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。纵观全文，第一段和第二段阐述的是“虽然大多数州已经尝试了各种各样的方法来说服人们在开车时放下手机。可是问题却越来越严重”。第三段中“That is partly because people are driving more.”（部分原因是开车的人越来越多）可知，解释了该行为产生的部分原因。第四段至第五段讲述的是为了解决该问题是纽约立法者提出了一个新的想法即利用Textalyzer技术，来监控司机在开车的时候是否使用了手机。最后一段讲述的是：相关人士呼吁该项技术能够成为真正的法案由此才能真正地改变人们的行为。故B选项Texting and Driving? Watch Out for the Textalyzer（发短信还是在开车？防范短信监控器。）适合文章的标题。故选B。 D Animals perform tasks that their bodies are well designed for. That’s because their intelligence evolved（进化）with their physical form as they interacted with the environment. Artificial intelligence is smart as well but it doesn’t have a body. Agrim Gupta of Stanford University and his colleagues wondered: Does having bodies matter for the evolution of intelligence? To answer it, they created a virtual robot named “unimal” and studied how having virtual bodies affected the evolution of the unimals’ intelligence. Unimals are pretty simple with balls for heads and cylinders for anns and legs. The test environments came in three varieties: flat areas, areas filled with hills, steps and broken stones, and areas that had the complexities of the second sort, but with added objects that unimals need to move to a target location. At first, the unimals were in random shapes, but with identical software running them. In groups of four, Dr Gupta put them through tests of agility, stability, and ability to control objects. Then each group’s winner was allowed to give birth to a daughter with one mutation（变异）, for example, an extra leg for stability. This daughter was sent to a new group to be tested. The process repeated and the test ended after ten generations of evolution. The diversity of the unimals’ shapes that evolved surprised the team. Some had arms as well as legs while others had only legs. Crucially, though, the researchers found the most successful unimals, which evolved in the toughest environment, learned tasks faster and better than their ancestors. This consists with the Baldwin effect, which suggests that minds evolve to make best use of the morphologies（形态）of the bodies they find themselves in. It’s believed that the result will provide insights for developing robots that can learn to perform multiple tasks in the real world. 12. What did Agrim Gupta’s team study? A. How animals perform tasks. B. How unimals are created randomly. C. How animals interact with the environment. D. How having virtual bodies influences AI evolution. 13. What makes the third test environment the toughest? A. Stones to be picked. B. More steps to be counted. C. Objects to be moved. D. Higher hills to be climbed. 14. What’s Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The test procedure. B. The running software. C. The unimals’ varieties. D. The winners’ mutations. 15. Why is the Baldwin effect mentioned in Paragraph 5? A. To compare different discoveries. B. To explain the concept of morphology. C. To support the result of Gupta’s study. D. To introduce a new way to develop robots. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【分析】本文是说明文。文章讲述了对拥有身体的机器人进化的研究，研究结果显示进化是为了最大限度地利用身体所处的形态。这一结果将为开发能够在现实世界中执行多种任务的机器人提供见解。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的“Agrim Gupta of Stanford University and his colleagues wondered: Does having bodies matter for the evolution of intelligence? To answer it, they created a virtual robot named “unimal” and studied how having virtual bodies affected the evolution of the unimals’ intelligence.( 斯坦福大学的阿格里姆·古普塔和他的同事们想知道：拥有身体对智力的进化重要吗？为了回答这个问题，他们创造了一个名为“unimal”的虚拟机器人，并研究拥有虚拟身体如何影响“unimal”的智力进化)”可知，Agrim Gupta的团队研究拥有虚拟身体如何影响人工智能的进化。故选D。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“The test environments came in three varieties: flat areas, areas filled with hills, steps and broken stones, and areas that had the complexities of the second sort, but with added objects that unimals need to move to a target location.( 测试环境有三种类型：平坦的区域、充满山丘、台阶和碎石的区域，以及具有第二种复杂性的区域，但添加了unimal需要移动才能到达目标区域的物体。)”可知，第三种测试环境最困难是因为添加了要移走的物体。故选C。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段内容“At first, the unimals were in random shapes, but with identical software running them. In groups of four, Dr Gupta put them through tests of agility, stability, and ability to control objects. Then each group’s winner was allowed to give birth to a daughter with one mutation（变异）, for example, an extra leg for stability. This daughter was sent to a new group to be tested. The process repeated and the test ended after ten generations of evolution.( 一开始，unimals的形状是随机的，但运行它们的软件是相同的。古普塔博士让他们四人一组，进行敏捷性、稳定性和控制物体能力的测试。然后每组的优胜者被允许生一个带有突变的女儿,例如，为了稳定性的额外的腿。这个女儿被送到一个新的小组接受测试。这个过程不断重复，在进化了十代之后，测试结束了。)”可知，本段主要讲述测试过程。故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段的“Crucially, though, the researchers found the most successful unimals, which evolved in the toughest environment, learned tasks faster and better than their ancestors. This consists with the Baldwin effect, which suggests that minds evolve to make best use of the morphologies（形态）of the bodies they find themselves in.( 然而，至关重要的是，研究人员发现，那些在最艰苦的环境中进化出来的unimal学习任务比它们的祖先更快、更好。这与鲍德温效应一致，鲍德温效应表明思维的进化是为了最大限度地利用他们所处的身体形态。)”可知，研究的结果与鲍德温效应一致，因此推断提到鲍德温效应是为了支持研究结果。故选C。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分) 根据下面短文, 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。 Science is a mental toolbox for solving problems. ____16____. And they are powerful and useful in everyday life. Today, we open the toolbox: how scientists think, and how you can borrow their tricks. •Start with an open mind. Being open-minded means that when we are asked a question, scientific thinking requires us to admit that we often simply don’t know the answer.____17____. If the evidence changes and you don’t change your mind, that’s not a good spot to be in. •Accept uncertainty. Scientists always accept that there are things they don’t know, and things they simply cannot know for sure.____18____. It allows you to make better decisions because you’re taking the uncertainty into account. Science says it’s OK to wait for evidence before coming to a conclusion. •____19____. Go and do your research. Pull together all the data—stuff that agrees with your argument and stuff that refutes（驳斥）it. Consider everything, rather than focusing on a single point. Then, for each piece of data, consider the quality of the evidence. • Develop a hypothesis（假设）. A hypothesis is a theory about the world—a guess. Ask yourself: Which of my theories best explains the data I have gathered? Start with the most likely explanation and test it.____20____. A. Collect your data B. Focus on your argument C. The tools are simpler than you would think D. Accepting you don’t know things isn’t a sign of weakness E. There is no point in having a theory that can’t be proven false F. It also means not holding on to a belief when the evidence changes G. If you can prove it wrong, move on to the next most likely explanation 【答案】16. C 17. F 18. D 19. A 20. G 【解析】 【分析】本文是说明文。科学是解决问题的精神工具，他们在日常生活中是强大并有用的。文章阐述了科学家思考的方式以及你如何利用科学工具解决问题的方式。 【16题详解】 上文“Science is a mental toolbox for solving problems.( 科学是解决问题的精神工具箱)”说明科学是解决问题的工具，C项中的“tools”与之呼应，C项“这些工具比你想象的要简单”符合语境，引出下文“And they are powerful and useful in everyday life.(他们在日常生活中是强大和有用的。)”说明这些工具可以应用到日常生活中，其实要比想象中简单。故选C。 【17题详解】 上文“Being open-minded means that when we are asked a question, scientific thinking requires us to admit that we often simply don’t know the answer.( 思想开放意味着，当我们被问到一个问题时，科学思维要求我们承认我们往往根本不知道答案。)”说明科学思维要求我们思想开放，接受我们不知道的答案，F项中的“not holding on to a belief”与“admit that we often simply don’t know the answer”一致，F项“它也意味着当证据改变时，不要坚持一种观点”符合语境，与上文是并列关系，且F项中的“the evidence changes”与下文的“the evidence changes”呼应。故选F。 【18题详解】 根据标题“Accept uncertainty.”可知，本段讲述接受不确定性。D项中的“Accepting you don’t know things”符合本段主旨，D项“接受你不知道的事情并不是一种软弱的表现”符合语境，下文“It allows you to make better decisions because you’re taking the uncertainty into account.(它允许你做出更好的决定，因为你已经考虑到了不确定性。)”解释接受不知道的事情并不是软弱的表现的原因。故选D。 【19题详解】 空格处是段落标题。根据下文“Pull together all the data—stuff that agrees with your argument and stuff that refutes（驳斥）it. Consider everything, rather than focusing on a single point. Then, for each piece of data, consider the quality of the evidence.(汇总所有的数据——与你的论点一致的数据和驳斥它的数据。考虑一切，而不是专注于某一点。然后，对于每一块数据，考虑证据的质量。)”可推断，本段讲述收集数据。A项“收集你的数据”为最佳标题。故选A。 【20题详解】 上文“Start with the most likely explanation and test it.( 从最有可能的解释开始，并测试它)”讲述证明假设从最可能的解释开始验证，G项中的“the next most likely explanation”呼应上文，因此G项“如果你可以证明它是错的，那就继续下一个最有可能的解释”符合语境，讲述一个一个检验最有可能的解释。故选G。 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，从每超所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 My husband Sajan is an Indian with a vegetarian heritage.

I didn’t know what to get Dad. Last year I made him a photo album. This year I wanted to do something different. At dinner, Dad accidentally dropped his favorite blue tie into his soup bowl. The tie was ruined. I suddenly knew what to get Dad for Father’s Day! “How much does a tie cost?” I asked Mom the next morning. “Depends,” she said.“ Some can cost twenty dollars. Do you have enough money. Carter?” “No, ” I said sadly. When I got to my room to change into my school clothes I noticed a hole in my shirt. “Mom, I need you to sew(缝补) my shirt, I said loudly, rushing out the door to the school bus. At school I picked at the hole in my shirt. I thought about how I could come up with enough money to buy a tie. I took a deep sigh, and played with the hold some more. As the hole grew in size, an idea sprung into my mind. After coming home from school, I dug through my closet trying to find other worn clothes. “Mom! "I yelled down the hall heading towards her. Can I cut these clothes up to make Dad a patchwork(拼缝) tie for Father’s Day?” I pointed out the holes to Mom. “ I guess,” he said. “And,” I added, “Can you show me how to sew and make tiny stitches(针脚)?” “Yes, Carter. Let s start now before Dad gets home.” Mom said, heading for her sewing supplies. I followed Moms instructions and started making a patchwork tie. I gently pressed my foot on the foot pedal(缝纫机脚踏板) . Suddenly, the needle stopped and the machine made a horrible sound. “No!” I said. “Try again, Carter, ” Mom instructed. I took a deep breath and gently applied the pedal again. Unluckily, I failed again. 注意：1. 续写词数为150左右。 2. 请在相应位置作答。 “Forget it! I can’t do this!” I cried and went to my room. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On Father’s Day I handed Dad a small box. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: “ Forget it! I cant do this!” I cried and went to my room. After sitting in my room for a while, I realized that if I wanted to give Dad a Father’s Day gift, I would have to learn to sew or at least keep trying. Every day after school, I would try, and try, and try. Finally, I was able to work the machine with Mom’s continued help. Although my first stitches were big and far apart, I grew better and better and my stitches finally became closer together and looked nice. On Fathers Day I handed Dad a small box. He tore the wrapping paper off and opened the box. “Wow! This is great, Carter!” he said, holding up the patchwork tie. “I remember that shirt of yours,” Dad said, pointing out the patches. “Thank you very much.” Dad’s hug was big and warm. “I’ll be sure to take this off when I eat soup.” he said, and we both laughed. 【解析】 【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者想在爸爸生日的时候给爸爸准备一份礼物，正好爸爸在喝汤时把领带弄脏了，打算给爸爸买一条新领带作为礼物，可没有足够的钱，便想亲自做一条领带给爸爸，苦练缝纫技术最终做出了领带，爸爸收到后很开心的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“算了吧! 我做不到！”可知，第一段可描写作者意识到想做成领带就要练好缝纫技术，于是努力练习最后缝的越来越好。 ②由第二段首句内容“父亲节那天，我递给爸爸一个小盒子。”可知，第二段可描写爸爸收到礼物后开心和惊喜的反应。 2.续写线索：制作失败——练习——缝纫技术提升——送礼物——得到赞美 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①意识到：realize/be aware of ②能够：be able to/be capable of 情绪类 ①感谢：showing his appreciation/showing his gratitude 【点睛】[高分句型1]Although my first stitches were big and far apart, I grew better and better and my stitches finally became closer together and looked nice.（由连词although引导的让步状语从句） [高分句型2]I’ll be sure to take this off when I eat soup.（由when引导的时间状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
