What I did was uncontrolled and a bit of an overkill, but it was an unplanned reaction. I am, however, proud to have been the first and only to stand up to these two older boys.(我想澄清一下，我并不为把两个大孩子送进医院而感到自豪。我所做的是不受控制的，有点矫枉过正，但这是一种无计划的反应。然而，我很自豪能成为第一个也是唯一一个站出来对抗这两个大男孩的人。)”可知，作者用自己的行动捍卫了尊严，说明是一个“有尊严的”人。故选B项。 32．词句猜测题。由第四段“Because they had started it, I got no punishment or detention. Teachers were mostly shocked. I think the two boys were also quite embarrassed that a 10-year-old girl had won so they didn’t want to bring too much attention to the fact. But it was too late, dozens of students had seen it (none of which had been willing to defend a younger student from two bullies).(因为他们已经开始这件事的，我没有受到惩罚或拘留。老师们大多感到震惊。我认为这两个男孩也很尴尬，因为一个10岁的女孩赢了，所以他们不想引起太多的关注。但为时已晚，已有数十名学生目睹了这一幕（其中没有一人愿意保护一名年幼的学生免受两名欺凌者的伤害）。)”可知，这里表示两位施暴者不想让这件事被知道，但是老师和学生都知道了，所以猜测划线句“The word got around the school”暗示着全校许多学生和老师都知道作者的反击。故选D项。 33．推理判断题。由文章最后一段“The best part was that because those two had beaten most of my bullies, my bullies were scared of me, and I was never picked on again. It also taught me that bullying is wrong, but defending yourself is good. I want to clarify that I am not proud to have put two kids in the hospital. What I did was uncontrolled and a bit of an overkill, but it was an unplanned reaction. I am, however, proud to have been the first and only to stand up to these two older boys.(最棒的是，因为这两个人打败过我的大多数欺负者，我的欺负者都害怕我，我再也没有被欺负过。它也教会了我欺凌是错误的，但为自己辩护是好的。我想澄清一下，我并不为把两个孩子送进医院而感到自豪。我所做的是不受控制的，有点矫枉过正，但这是一种无计划的反应。然而，我很自豪能成为第一个也是唯一一个站出来对抗这两个大男孩的人。)”以及上文可知，文章主要讲述作者受到欺凌后奋力反抗，从此再也没有受到他们打扰的故事，所以D项Where there’s oppression there’s resistance.(哪里有压迫，哪里就有反抗。)符合文意，号召大家要站起来反对欺凌。故选D项。 七、七选五 【导语】本文是说明文。主题语境: 人与环境---环境保护与可持续发展 文章围绕加州干旱危机，从关注日常用水习惯、更换节水设备、监控水费及漏水问题等方面，强调个人节水行动对缓解干旱的重要性。 16. B. Individual action matters 解析：空格后 “though you can’t save California on your own”（尽管你无法独自拯救加州）与 B 选项 “个人行动很重要” 形成转折，强调个人节水行为的意义，且后文 “Small things can add up” 也呼应 “个人行动” 的主题。 17. G. Only run washing machines and dishwashers when you have a full load 解析：该段围绕 “小行动累加” 展开，G 选项 “仅在洗衣机和洗碗机满载时运行” 属于具体节水措施，与前一句 “Don’t let the water running...”（避免水龙头长流水）并列，都是日常节水习惯。 18. D. They can save a lot per household per day 解析：前文对比新旧马桶的用水量，D 选项 “它们（新设备）每天能为每个家庭节省大量用水” 承接上文，说明更换旧家电的节水效果，“They” 指代 “Newer toilets”。 19. C. Find out the potential problem 解析：该段核心是 “通过水费账单异常排查漏水问题”。前一句 “If it creeps higher... investigate whether you have a leak”（若水费异常升高，调查是否漏水）属于 “发现潜在问题” 的行为，C 选项 “找出潜在问题” 直接概括了段落主旨。后文 “monitor the meter... see whether anything is moving”（监测水表）是 “发现问题” 的具体手段，因此 C 选项比 A 选项更贴合段落逻辑（A 选项 “关注水费” 侧重行为，而段落重点在 “通过水费发现问题”）。 20. F. You may also use a smart detector to tell you once there’s a problem 解析：空格前介绍通过水表监测漏水，F 选项 “也可使用智能检测器发现问题” 是对前文的补充，“also” 体现递进关系，且 “smart detector” 与 “water meter” 形成技术层面的呼应。 【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍作者讲述自己在巴黎租房深度旅居，克服语言障碍与当地老人双向分享中法文化，并点明旅行真正的价值在于跨文化交流、搭建文化桥梁，而非单纯打卡观光。 1.B志愿活动催人高效充实，因此主观上会觉得时间更充裕。故选B项。 2.G志愿活动催人高效充实，因此主观上会觉得时间更充裕。故选G项。 3.E本段围绕成人展开，该句总领志愿对成年人健康的诸多好处。故选E项。 4.C后文讲青少年长期获益，选项点明志愿对青少年有终身影响。故选C项。 5.F家人协作做志愿，能发掘孩子身上以往未发现的闪光点。故选F项。 4 / 8 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 分层作业 Unit 2 Period 1 Reading and Thinking 目 录 A组 巩固过关 B组 能力进阶 C组 思维拔高 拓展 链接高考 1、 将下列短语翻译为英文。 1. 获得资格 ___________________ 2. 实现抱负___________________ 3. 参加……___________________ 4. 专注于；从事___________________ 5 参与；涉及___________________ 6. 激励某人___________________ 【答案】 1. qualify for sth. / qualify as sth. 2. fulfill / realize one’s ambition 3. participate in 4. be engaged in 5. be involved in 6. motivate sb. / be motivated to do sth. 二、根据句意及汉语提示写出单词。 1.

They would insult kick, and push me down the stairs. Teachers did nothing as the other kids were “paying customers” but I was not. I didn’t want to involve my mother because she was going through a nasty divorce, and I wanted to protect her from more stress. Then, this day came. These two kids were infamous (臭名昭著) for bullying anything that moved. Younger kids, mostly, as they were cowards. They had never bothered me before that day but had beaten several of my friends and classmates. But one day, as they started bothering my friends and me, I told them to go away. Their eyes lit up as they approached to beat me, and then they made a foolish mistake: they insulted my mother. I just jumped on them, and it wasn’t pretty though. At some point, I got my ribs bruised by knee kicks by one of them while the other held me. I couldn’t breathe. However, they ended up worse. One had a broken nose and a black eye and was all scratched up with deep scratches. The other had three broken finger. I also trapped his head on my arm and punched him in the head hard that I had bruises on my hands, but he had a big black bruise on the side of his head for a week. I also remember kicking one in the stomach when they were on the floor until two teachers arrived and held me. Because they had started it, I got no punishment or detention. Teachers were mostly shocked. I think the two boys were also quite embarrassed that a 10-year-old girl had won so they didn’t want to bring too much attention to the fact. But it was too late, dozens of students had seen it (none of which had been willing to defend a younger student from two bullies). The word got around the school. From that moment on, these two did not bother a single soul and kept a very low profile, and they would walk away the moment they saw me. The best part was that because those two had beaten most of my bullies, my bullies were scared of me, and I was never picked on again. It also taught me that bullying is wrong, but defending yourself is good. I want to clarify that I am not proud to have put two kids in the hospital. What I did was uncontrolled and a bit of an overkill, but it was an unplanned reaction. I am, however, proud to have been the first and only to stand up to these two older boys. 1．Why did the author refuse to fight back at first? A．Because she was not strong enough to fight back.

They would insult kick, and push me down the stairs. Teachers did nothing as the other kids were “paying customers” but I was not. I didn’t want to involve my mother because she was going through a nasty divorce, and I wanted to protect her from more stress. Then, this day came. These two kids were infamous (臭名昭著) for bullying anything that moved. Younger kids, mostly, as they were cowards. They had never bothered me before that day but had beaten several of my friends and classmates. But one day, as they started bothering my friends and me, I told them to go away. Their eyes lit up as they approached to beat me, and then they made a foolish mistake: they insulted my mother. I just jumped on them, and it wasn’t pretty though. At some point, I got my ribs bruised by knee kicks by one of them while the other held me. I couldn’t breathe. However, they ended up worse. One had a broken nose and a black eye and was all scratched up with deep scratches. The other had three broken finger. I also trapped his head on my arm and punched him in the head hard that I had bruises on my hands, but he had a big black bruise on the side of his head for a week. I also remember kicking one in the stomach when they were on the floor until two teachers arrived and held me. Because they had started it, I got no punishment or detention. Teachers were mostly shocked. I think the two boys were also quite embarrassed that a 10-year-old girl had won so they didn’t want to bring too much attention to the fact. But it was too late, dozens of students had seen it (none of which had been willing to defend a younger student from two bullies). The word got around the school. From that moment on, these two did not bother a single soul and kept a very low profile, and they would walk away the moment they saw me. The best part was that because those two had beaten most of my bullies, my bullies were scared of me, and I was never picked on again. It also taught me that bullying is wrong, but defending yourself is good. I want to clarify that I am not proud to have put two kids in the hospital. What I did was uncontrolled and a bit of an overkill, but it was an unplanned reaction. I am, however, proud to have been the first and only to stand up to these two older boys. 30．Why did the author refuse to fight back at first? A．Because she was not strong enough to fight back.
