And white collar, pink collar and green collar. There’s a new collar in town. “New collar” jobs are those that require advanced skills but not necessarily advanced degrees, especially in emerging high-tech fields like artificial intelligence, cybersecurity (网络安全), electric vehicles and robotics. There are real fears that workers will lose jobs to technology, especially artificial intelligence, in the coming years. But “new collar” optimists think in a more positive way. There are also real opportunities ahead for skilled workers who know how to handle machines. “Somebody has to program, monitor and maintain those robots,” said Sarah Boisvert, the founder of the New-Collar Network. Even if millions of high-tech jobs are created in the coming years, the impact on workers who lose jobs may be significant. For many Americans without four-year college degrees, according to survey data, the new job market will require training. Ginni Rometty, a former chief executive of IBM, is believed to have created a “new collar” in 2016. At the time, she said, IBM was having trouble filling cybersecurity jobs, partly because outdated criteria required that candidates have college degrees. “Due to our high qualifications in these online jobs, we overlooked a large number of qualified and available candidates,” she wrote in an email. “Unless millions of people are trained in the skills employers need now,” she added, “they risk being unemployed even as millions of good-paying jobs go unfilled.” Christopher M. Cox, a researcher who has written about the new-collar economy, said, “The alternative model of four-year universities is really great.” However, he added that, “new collar” may also be a clever term that relieves the anxiety of workers by defining the constantly changing labor market and technology companies as more ideal partners rather than “terminators (终结者).” 4. What do “new collar” jobs refer to? A. Jobs related to cybersecurity. B. Jobs involving electric vehicles. C. Jobs closely connected with AI. D. Jobs valuing skills over high degrees. 5. Why does IBM struggle to hire cybersecurity workers? A. The job is too stressful. B. The salary is unappealing. C. The requirements are inappropriate. D. The candidates are picky. 6. What is Christopher’s attitude toward the term “new collar”? A. Approving. B. Doubtful. C. Uncaring. D. Unclear. 7. What is the focus of the text? A. Explaining workers’ anxiety. B. Introducing new-collar jobs. C. Emphasizing college education. D. Stating electric vehicle industry. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了新兴的“新领阶层”职业的定义、产生背景、市场需求以及社会意义，阐释了该类职业重技能、轻学历的就业新趋势。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中““New collar” jobs are those that require advanced skills but not necessarily advanced degrees, especially in emerging high-tech fields like artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, electric vehicles and robotics. (“新领”职业需要高级技能，但不一定需要高学历，尤其存在于人工智能、网络安全、电动汽车和机器人技术等新兴高科技领域。)”可知，新领职业重视技能而非高学历。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“IBM was having trouble filling cybersecurity jobs, partly because outdated criteria required that candidates have college degrees. (IBM难以招到网络安全岗位人才，部分原因是过时的招聘标准要求应聘者必须拥有大学学历。)”可知，招聘困难是因为招聘要求不合适、不合时宜。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第七段中““new collar” may also be a clever term that relieves the anxiety of workers by defining the constantly changing labor market and technology companies as more ideal partners rather than “terminators”. (“新领”是一个巧妙的术语，它缓解了劳动者的焦虑，将不断变化的劳动力市场和科技公司定义为更理想的合作方，而非终结者。)”可知，Christopher认可“新领”这一概念带来的积极意义，持赞同态度。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，文章开篇引出“新领”工作的概念，随后介绍了其带来的机遇与挑战、IBM的案例以及学者对这一术语的评价，整篇文章围绕“新领”工作展开介绍。 C In our fast-paced, modern world, stress has become an unwelcome companion for many, affecting both our mental and physical health. As we search for effective ways to manage this issue, an age-old solution appears from the musical history: classical music. This timeless art form offers a unique approach to stress relief that has inspired researchers and music enthusiasts alike. The powerful connection between music and stress relief has long been recognized, but classical music stands out as a particularly powerful treatment. To truly appreciate the stress-relieving properties of classical music, we must first understand its great impact on our brains and bodies. Neuroscientific research has revealed that listening to classical compositions can lead to a series of beneficial neurological effects, influencing everything from our emotional state to our cognitive (认知的) function. When we listen to classical music, our brains release a certain chemical associated with pleasure and reward. This chemical enhances our mood. Additionally, classical music has been shown to promote relaxation and reduce anxiety. The impact of classical music extends beyond our brains to affect our physiological functions as well. Numerous studies have demonstrated that listening to classical compositions can lead to a decrease in heart rate and blood pressure, two key indicators of stress levels in the body. One particularly noteworthy study, published in the Journal of Advanced Nursing, found that patients who listened to classical music for just 45 minutes experienced significant reductions in both heart rate and blood pressure compared to those who rested in silence. This research underscores the potential of classical music as a cost-effective intervention for stress-related health issues. While other types of music can also provide stress relief, classical music offers unique advantages. Unlike pop or rock music, which often features lyrics that can engage the language centers of the brain, classical music allows listeners to focus mainly on the rhyming and harmonic (和声的) elements. This pure musical experience can promote a deeper state of relaxation and mindfulness, making it particularly effective for stress reduction. 8. What can we infer about stress from paragraph 1? A. It is a common occurrence nowadays. B. It results in many mental problems. C. It is an inspiring force for progress. D. It has long been underrecognized. 9. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about classical music? A. Why it is appreciated. B. How it helps relieve stress. C. When it works efficiently. D. What it does to the brain. 10. What is the probable meaning of the underlined word “underscores” in paragraph 3? A. Grades. B. Overlooks. C. Highlights. D. Minimizes. 11. What aspect of classical music is beneficial to the listener? A. Its logic lines. B. Its rhyming lyrics. C. Its vivid content. D. Its pure music. 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了古典音乐能够缓解压力，从对大脑、身体产生的影响以及古典音乐独有的优势几个方面展开阐述。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“In our fast-paced, modern world, stress has become an unwelcome companion for many, affecting both our mental and physical health.(在节奏飞快的现代社会，压力已经成为许多人不受欢迎的伙伴，影响着我们的身心健康。)”可知，如今压力是十分普遍的现象。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Neuroscientific research has revealed that listening to classical compositions can lead to a series of beneficial neurological effects, influencing everything from our emotional state to our cognitive (认知的) function.(神经科学研究表明，聆听古典音乐作品能够产生一系列有益的神经效应，影响从情绪状态到认知功能等方方面面。)”以及“This chemical enhances our mood. Additionally, classical music has been shown to promote relaxation and reduce anxiety.(这种化学物质能够改善情绪。此外，已有研究证实古典音乐有助于放松身心、缓解焦虑。)”可知，本段主要介绍古典音乐是如何帮助人们缓解压力的。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“One particularly noteworthy study, published in the Journal of Advanced Nursing, found that patients who listened to classical music for just 45 minutes experienced significant reductions in both heart rate and blood pressure compared to those who rested in silence. This research  underscores the potential of classical music as a cost-effective intervention for stress-related health issues. (一项发表在《高级护理期刊》上值得关注的研究发现，与安静休息的人相比，仅聆听45分钟古典音乐的患者心率和血压都出现明显下降。这项研究underscores古典音乐作为一种具有成本效益的干预压力相关健康问题的潜力。)”可知，这项研究着重凸显了古典音乐可以干预压力相关健康问题的潜力，underscores意为“强调，凸显”，与C选项“highlights(强调)”含义一致。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“This pure musical experience can promote a deeper state of relaxation and mindfulness, making it particularly effective for stress reduction.(这种纯粹的音乐体验能够带来更深层次的放松与正念状态，使其在减压方面效果显著。)”可知，古典音乐纯粹的音乐形式对听众有益。 D The Rubik’s Cube (魔方) was invented in 1974 by Erno Rubik. It rapidly became a popular puzzle worldwide. At first, people just wanted to solve the puzzle. But soon, one group of users had a new goal—to solve the cube as quickly as possible. These people are known as “speedcubers”. The fastest human speedcubers can solve a cube in about 3.05 seconds. In 2020, a group of students at MIT set a record with a robot that solved the cube in 0.380 seconds. That made an impression on Matthew Patrohay, who was in high school at the time. Now Mr. Patrohay is a student of Purdue University. He and three other students have built a robot that can solve a Rubik’s Cube far faster. Their “Purdubik’s Cube” robot can solve a cube in 0.103 seconds. The team built the robot as part of a senior project. The students met through a program that helps students get real-world work experience. They use cameras to rapidly detect the colors of each of the cube’s squares. The robot’s computer program uses special strategies to solve the puzzle quickly. And its motions are very precisely controlled. To work so quickly, the project uses a special cube that sits in the middle of the robot’s “arms”. These arms allow the robot to turn the sides of the cube. But at such high speeds, an ordinary cube will fall apart, so the students had to create a stronger cube that would hold together. Mr. Patrohay says the robot is so fast that “before you even realize it’s moving, we’ve solved it.” The students won a school design contest last December with Purdubik’s Cube, and they continued to improve the robot after that. Now they’re excited to have broken the world record. One of the students’ professors says he’s not surprised. “Take brilliant students, give them the tools and opportunities,” he says, “And they’ll blow your mind.” 12. What inspired Matthew Patrohay to build a faster robot? A. A high school science project. B. A robot record in solving the cube. C. His professor’s encouragement. D. His passion for Rubik’s Cube. 13. Why did the students have to design a stronger cube? A. To match the high speed. B. To fit the robot’s arms. C. To use it on a very frequent basis. D. To improve motion precision. 14. What does the professor feel about his students? A. Shocked and pleased. B. Regretful but understanding. C. Proud and satisfied. D. Optimistic but doubtful. 15. What can be the best title of this text? A. MIT Students and Their Fast Robot B. New Record for Robot Cube Solving C. A Robot That Solves a Cube Instantly D. The Fascinating History of the Rubik’s Cube 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了普渡大学的几名学生打造的机器人，以0.103秒的成绩打破了机器人复原魔方的世界纪录，同时说明了该机器人的相关设计细节与研发背景。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“In 2020, a group of students at MIT set a record with a robot that solved the cube in 0.380 seconds. That made an impression on Matthew Patrohay, who was in high school at the time. (2020年，麻省理工学院的一群学生用一台在0.380秒内复原魔方的机器人创下了纪录，这给当时还在上高中的马修・帕特罗海留下了深刻印象。)”可知，是麻省理工学院创下的机器人复原魔方的纪录启发了马修・帕特罗海去打造更快的机器人。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“But at such high speeds, an ordinary cube will fall apart, so the students had to create a stronger cube that would hold together. (但在如此高的速度下，普通魔方会散架，所以学生们必须制作出更坚固、不会散开的魔方。)”可知，学生们设计更坚固的魔方是为了适配机器人的高速运转，避免魔方散架。  【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“One of the students’ professors says he’s not surprised. “Take brilliant students, give them the tools and opportunities,” he says, “And they’ll blow your mind.” (其中一名学生的教授表示他对此并不意外，他说“优秀的学生，只要给他们工具和机会，他们就会给你带来惊喜。”)”可推知，教授对自己的学生感到骄傲且满意。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“Now Mr. Patrohay is a student of Purdue University. He and three other students have built a robot that can solve a Rubik’s Cube far faster. Their “Purdubik’s Cube” robot can solve a cube in 0.103 seconds. (如今帕特罗海先生是普渡大学的学生。他和另外三名同学造出了一台速度快得多的魔方复原机器人。他们的“普渡魔方”机器人复原魔方仅需0.103秒。)”并通读全文可知，文章核心内容是普渡大学的学生团队打造出的机器人创下了机器人复原魔方的全新世界纪录，B选项“New Record for Robot Cube Solving (机器人复原魔方的新纪录)”最能概括全文核心内容，适合作为标题。 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。 The rise of remote work has opened up new opportunities for people who want to explore the world while earning a living.

After four decades of work, we were about to begin our great adventure. But just before departure, my husband fell ill. A quick check-up led to a scan, and then the result: cancer. Just like that, our traveling life was put on hold. Our household, once noisy with multiple dogs, now had only Anna, a gentle dog content to nap in sunbeams. She was a calm comfort. But she couldn’t match the energetic companion my husband desired, one who would bike, swim, and play fetch for hours. My husband, usually unstoppable, now struggled with exhaustion. Our kids visited often, sitting with him during chemo (化疗) and calling to check in. One day, our son and daughter-in-law pulled me aside. “Let us find Dad an energetic dog,” they said. They thought a new companion might lift his spirits. After my husband agreed, the search began. Soon, a photo arrived: Maddie, a German Shorthaired Pointer with a spotted brown coat. Her owner, a soldier, couldn’t keep her in a small apartment. We learned GSPs were born for hunting — energetic, smart, and needing constant activity. Perfect, we thought. When the kids brought her home, out jumped Maddie... and another dog named Capers. “The owner had two dogs,” our daughter-in-law explained. “We couldn’t leave her.” We became a three-dog family overnight. Maddie’s energy was immediate and boundless. The first time we let her loose, she rushed into our neighbor’s yard, searched there and left marks. Our son, who lived next door, put an invisible fence around both our properties. After some training, Maddie learned her boundaries and enjoyed her new freedom, running after squirrels (松鼠), frightening pond frogs and filling the yard with energy. 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。 A bond formed instantly between Maddie and my husband. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Maddie’s energy strengthened my husband’s courage to fight chemo. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 A bond formed instantly between Maddie and my husband. While Anna and Capers wandered, Maddie stayed glued to his side, transforming his good days into exciting adventures. She became his shadow. Her wet nose touched him whenever he looked tired, pulling him into the sunlight. Together, they explored around the yard — he rescued a turtle from her jaws, calmed her panic when she saw a water snake, and once, they even chased a wild pig across the neighboring fields. His laughter was heard in once silent places. Life was full of fun. Maddie’s energy strengthened my husband’s courage to fight chemo. Maddie’s energy was so infectious that it influenced my husband positively. When the next round of chemo returned, the tiredness felt different. Through the whole process, Maddie would lay her head on his lap. Her steady breathing showed that their adventures were merely a temporary stop. She had become my husband’s spiritual companion and his reason to push through the hard time and fight for the next good day, and for the next chase across the field. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了夫妻二人计划开启退休环游之旅，丈夫却不幸确诊癌症，旅行计划被迫搁置。儿女为丈夫找来精力充沛的猎犬Maddie，同时带回另一只小狗Capers。Maddie旺盛的活力陪伴并鼓舞丈夫积极对抗化疗。 【详解】 1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写Maddie时刻陪伴丈夫，和丈夫在院子周边相伴游玩，给沉闷的生活带来欢声笑语。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写化疗期间Maddie不离不弃的陪伴，成为丈夫的精神支柱，支撑他熬过艰难的治疗时光。 2. 续写线索： 与Maddie建立亲密羁绊——相伴游玩、重拾欢笑——鼓舞丈夫对抗病痛——化疗期间贴心陪伴——成为精神寄托 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ① 漫步：wander/roam ② 追赶：chase/pursue ③ 影响：influence/affect 情绪类 ①令人兴奋的：exciting/thrilling ②疲惫的：tired/exhausted 【点睛】【高分句型1】Her wet nose touched him whenever he looked tired, pulling him into the sunlight.(运用了whenever引导的时间状语从句和现在分词短语pulling him into the sunlight作伴随状语) 【高分句型2】Maddie’s energy was so infectious that it influenced my husband positively.(运用了so… that…引导的结果状语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 辽宁省名校联盟2026年高考模拟卷（信息卷） 英语（四） 本试卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 注意事项： 1．答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2．答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡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。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） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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.

B Step aside, blue collar. And white collar, pink collar and green collar. There’s a new collar in town. “New collar” jobs are those that require advanced skills but not necessarily advanced degrees, especially in emerging high-tech fields like artificial intelligence, cybersecurity (网络安全), electric vehicles and robotics. There are real fears that workers will lose jobs to technology, especially artificial intelligence, in the coming years. But “new collar” optimists think in a more positive way. There are also real opportunities ahead for skilled workers who know how to handle machines. “Somebody has to program, monitor and maintain those robots,” said Sarah Boisvert, the founder of the New-Collar Network. Even if millions of high-tech jobs are created in the coming years, the impact on workers who lose jobs may be significant. For many Americans without four-year college degrees, according to survey data, the new job market will require training. Ginni Rometty, a former chief executive of IBM, is believed to have created a “new collar” in 2016. At the time, she said, IBM was having trouble filling cybersecurity jobs, partly because outdated criteria required that candidates have college degrees. “Due to our high qualifications in these online jobs, we overlooked a large number of qualified and available candidates,” she wrote in an email. “Unless millions of people are trained in the skills employers need now,” she added, “they risk being unemployed even as millions of good-paying jobs go unfilled.” Christopher M. Cox, a researcher who has written about the new-collar economy, said, “The alternative model of four-year universities is really great.” However, he added that, “new collar” may also be a clever term that relieves the anxiety of workers by defining the constantly changing labor market and technology companies as more ideal partners rather than “terminators (终结者).” 4. What do “new collar” jobs refer to? A. Jobs related to cybersecurity. B. Jobs involving electric vehicles. C. Jobs closely connected with AI. D. Jobs valuing skills over high degrees. 5. Why does IBM struggle to hire cybersecurity workers? A. The job is too stressful. B. The salary is unappealing. C. The requirements are inappropriate. D. The candidates are picky. 6. What is Christopher’s attitude toward the term “new collar”? A. Approving. B. Doubtful. C. Uncaring. D. Unclear. 7. What is the focus of the text? A. Explaining workers’ anxiety. B. Introducing new-collar jobs. C. Emphasizing college education. D. Stating electric vehicle industry. C In our fast-paced, modern world, stress has become an unwelcome companion for many, affecting both our mental and physical health. As we search for effective ways to manage this issue, an age-old solution appears from the musical history: classical music. This timeless art form offers a unique approach to stress relief that has inspired researchers and music enthusiasts alike. The powerful connection between music and stress relief has long been recognized, but classical music stands out as a particularly powerful treatment. To truly appreciate the stress-relieving properties of classical music, we must first understand its great impact on our brains and bodies. Neuroscientific research has revealed that listening to classical compositions can lead to a series of beneficial neurological effects, influencing everything from our emotional state to our cognitive (认知的) function. When we listen to classical music, our brains release a certain chemical associated with pleasure and reward. This chemical enhances our mood. Additionally, classical music has been shown to promote relaxation and reduce anxiety. The impact of classical music extends beyond our brains to affect our physiological functions as well. Numerous studies have demonstrated that listening to classical compositions can lead to a decrease in heart rate and blood pressure, two key indicators of stress levels in the body. One particularly noteworthy study, published in the Journal of Advanced Nursing, found that patients who listened to classical music for just 45 minutes experienced significant reductions in both heart rate and blood pressure compared to those who rested in silence. This research underscores the potential of classical music as a cost-effective intervention for stress-related health issues. While other types of music can also provide stress relief, classical music offers unique advantages. Unlike pop or rock music, which often features lyrics that can engage the language centers of the brain, classical music allows listeners to focus mainly on the rhyming and harmonic (和声的) elements. This pure musical experience can promote a deeper state of relaxation and mindfulness, making it particularly effective for stress reduction. 8. What can we infer about stress from paragraph 1? A. It is a common occurrence nowadays. B. It results in many mental problems. C. It is an inspiring force for progress. D. It has long been underrecognized. 9. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about classical music? A. Why it is appreciated. B. How it helps relieve stress. C. When it works efficiently. D. What it does to the brain. 10. What is the probable meaning of the underlined word “underscores” in paragraph 3? A. Grades. B. Overlooks. C. Highlights. D. Minimizes. 11. What aspect of classical music is beneficial to the listener? A. Its logic lines. B. Its rhyming lyrics. C. Its vivid content. D. Its pure music. D The Rubik’s Cube (魔方) was invented in 1974 by Erno Rubik. It rapidly became a popular puzzle worldwide. At first, people just wanted to solve the puzzle. But soon, one group of users had a new goal—to solve the cube as quickly as possible. These people are known as “speedcubers”. The fastest human speedcubers can solve a cube in about 3.05 seconds. In 2020, a group of students at MIT set a record with a robot that solved the cube in 0.380 seconds. That made an impression on Matthew Patrohay, who was in high school at the time. Now Mr. Patrohay is a student of Purdue University. He and three other students have built a robot that can solve a Rubik’s Cube far faster. Their “Purdubik’s Cube” robot can solve a cube in 0.103 seconds. The team built the robot as part of a senior project. The students met through a program that helps students get real-world work experience. They use cameras to rapidly detect the colors of each of the cube’s squares. The robot’s computer program uses special strategies to solve the puzzle quickly. And its motions are very precisely controlled. To work so quickly, the project uses a special cube that sits in the middle of the robot’s “arms”. These arms allow the robot to turn the sides of the cube. But at such high speeds, an ordinary cube will fall apart, so the students had to create a stronger cube that would hold together. Mr. Patrohay says the robot is so fast that “before you even realize it’s moving, we’ve solved it.” The students won a school design contest last December with Purdubik’s Cube, and they continued to improve the robot after that. Now they’re excited to have broken the world record. One of the students’ professors says he’s not surprised. “Take brilliant students, give them the tools and opportunities,” he says, “And they’ll blow your mind.” 12. What inspired Matthew Patrohay to build a faster robot? A. A high school science project. B. A robot record in solving the cube. C. His professor’s encouragement. D. His passion for Rubik’s Cube. 13. Why did the students have to design a stronger cube? A. To match the high speed. B. To fit the robot’s arms. C. To use it on a very frequent basis. D. To improve motion precision. 14. What does the professor feel about his students? A. Shocked and pleased. B. Regretful but understanding. C. Proud and satisfied. D. Optimistic but doubtful. 15. What can be the best title of this text? A. MIT Students and Their Fast Robot B. New Record for Robot Cube Solving C. A Robot That Solves a Cube Instantly D.

After four decades of work, we were about to begin our great adventure. But just before departure, my husband fell ill. A quick check-up led to a scan, and then the result: cancer. Just like that, our traveling life was put on hold. Our household, once noisy with multiple dogs, now had only Anna, a gentle dog content to nap in sunbeams. She was a calm comfort. But she couldn’t match the energetic companion my husband desired, one who would bike, swim, and play fetch for hours. My husband, usually unstoppable, now struggled with exhaustion. Our kids visited often, sitting with him during chemo (化疗) and calling to check in. One day, our son and daughter-in-law pulled me aside. “Let us find Dad an energetic dog,” they said. They thought a new companion might lift his spirits. After my husband agreed, the search began. Soon, a photo arrived: Maddie, a German Shorthaired Pointer with a spotted brown coat. Her owner, a soldier, couldn’t keep her in a small apartment. We learned GSPs were born for hunting — energetic, smart, and needing constant activity. Perfect, we thought. When the kids brought her home, out jumped Maddie... and another dog named Capers. “The owner had two dogs,” our daughter-in-law explained. “We couldn’t leave her.” We became a three-dog family overnight. Maddie’s energy was immediate and boundless. The first time we let her loose, she rushed into our neighbor’s yard, searched there and left marks. Our son, who lived next door, put an invisible fence around both our properties. After some training, Maddie learned her boundaries and enjoyed her new freedom, running after squirrels (松鼠), frightening pond frogs and filling the yard with energy. 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。 A bond formed instantly between Maddie and my husband. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Maddie’s energy strengthened my husband’s courage to fight chemo. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
