一、题目呈现
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Amy was 16. She was determined to do well in school because she dreamed of becoming a scientist, and she knew how much competition there was for university science programs. Her marks were excellent. Amy had a perfectionistic approach, always expecting herself to do things to the highest standard.
She had a habit she wasn’t even aware of: whenever things didn’t go as expected, she would grab a notebook, list the facts and write down what went wrong — like a scientist recording an experiment. She never used it for herself, only for her school projects.
But her math midterm result was very disappointing to her — only 78. It was a hard test, and only one person got a better grade. Yet she told herself she had completely blown the test, calling herself stupid and a loser. She imagined being rejected by university for her poor math score, which filled her with deep sadness.
Constant worrying cost her sleep. She failed to concentrate on the following English midterm and got a lower mark as well. Scared, she thought she had fooled everyone and was not smart at all. For weeks, she shut herself in her room, crying and suffering from terrible sleeplessness. She made excuses to turn down her friends, feeling empty and unwilling to chat or hang out with them.
One friend’s warm words on the phone rang in her mind: “Amy, we miss you. You don’t have to be perfect to be our friend. Just let us in. ”
After hanging up, Amy sat silently. Seeing piles of untouched textbooks and the late clock, she knew she couldn’t go on like this. She took out her notebook and wrote: I’ve totally blown this test. I’m stupid and lazy. I’ll probably mess up all my other tests. She stared at the lines, then slowly picked up her pen and wrote beneath them: But is that really true?

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Amy Carter, a twelve-year-old girl with a curious mind, faced a big problem. She wanted to win the City Youth Science Fair, but her most important tool — a digital thermometer (温度计) — was broken. Her father softly said, “If you want it, you need to earn the money yourself.” Therefore, Amy started “The Garden Research Project” — using science to study how different liquids (液体) affect plant growth.
As she had planned, Amy’s method was special. She spent days doing background research. She studied biology books, made charts for different watering schedules, and even designed a special stand to hold the test tubes straight. Her bedroom wall was covered in colorful notes and graphs, looking more like a real scientist’s lab than a kid’s bedroom.
On the first day of her experiment, the first challenge appeared. The special stand she built was not stable (稳定) enough. The test tubes kept falling over whenever she moved them. After three failed attempts to fix it with tape, she decided to rebuild the base. She quickly found some spare wood blocks and strong glue. Using her knowledge of balance, she built a wider, heavier base. Now, the stand was perfectly stable.
Then, the weather, which Amy had thought would be sunny, turned out to be very humid (潮湿的). High humidity affected how plants “breathe”, a factor she hadn’t considered in her original plan. Amy immediately recorded the humidity data in her notebook and adjusted her observation schedule. This careful action prevented what could have ruined her entire data set.
There were a few small problems, but her experiment went well for two weeks. The final challenge came on the day of data analysis. Her computer broke down, and she thought she had lost all her photos. She stood still, staring at the black screen, her carefully collected evidence seeming to disappear forever.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;

1. Lead in
1、 品质激活
科学家具备的品质:
勇于探索(curious / exploratory)
学无止境(lifelong learning)
全力以赴(committed / devoted)
永不言弃(perseverant / never give up)
勤奋好学(hard-working / diligent)
未来可期(promising / inspiring)
2、 名人图片展示
提问1:What makes them great?
参考答案:
What makes scientists great is not just their intelligence, but their curiosity to explore the unknown, their perseverance through countless failures, their commitment to their research, and their selflessness in serving humanity. They never give up when facing setbacks; instead, they learn from failures and keep trying until they succeed.
提问2:What do scientists do when experiments fail? Do they give up or go on their research?
参考答案:
Scientists go on their research when experiments fail. They understand that failure is not the end, but part of the process. They analyze what went wrong, try a different approach, and keep trying until they find a solution. As Tu Youyou showed us — she failed over 190 times before discovering artemisinin, but she would not acknowledge defeat.

2、 核心要素梳理
要素整理
内容
核心人物
Amy:16岁少女,梦想成为科学家,成绩优异,有完美主义倾向(perfectionistic approach)。她有一个习惯:遇到事情不如预期时,会像科学家记录实验一样列出事实、写下问题所在——但她从未将这个习惯用在自己身上。
核心冲突
完美主义 vs. 现实不完美:Amy数学考了78分(考试很难,只有一人比她高),但她的完美主义让她认为"彻底搞砸了",称自己"stupid and a loser",甚至想象被大学拒绝。身份冲突:她梦想成为科学家,有科学家的习惯(记录事实),却从不用来分析自己——当自我否定时,她无法像科学家一样客观。
内在情绪
情绪线:disappointed(78分)→ self-blame("I'm stupid and a loser")→ deep sadness(想象被大学拒绝)→ anxiety(constant worrying, sleeplessness)→ isolation(shut herself in her room, turn down friends)→ emptiness(feeling empty)→ fear(thought she had fooled everyone)→ 转折点:朋友的话 + "But is that really true?"(开始质疑自我否定)
隐藏伏笔
① 笔记本习惯:Amy有"像科学家一样记录事实"的习惯,但从未用在自己身上
② 朋友的话:"You don't have to be perfect to be our friend"——这是触发Amy反思的外在因素
③ 科学家的思维方式:原文提到"like a scientist recording an experiment"——续写开头"Amy decided to answer it like a scientist"直接呼应这个伏笔
④ 自我质疑的起点:"But is that really true?"——这是Amy觉醒的起点
3、 主线梳理
主人公___________ 因_____________________________陷入_________________________________的困境,内心_____________________________,文中埋下__________________________________伏笔,全文核心主旨是____________________________________________________________。
主人公 Amy 因 数学考试只考了78分(考试很难,只有一人比她高)但完美主义让她无法接受"不完美" 陷入 自我否定、失眠、逃避朋友、无法集中注意力 的困境,内心 充满自我怀疑,称自己"stupid and a loser",想象被大学拒绝,深感悲伤和恐惧,文中埋下 ①笔记本习惯(像科学家一样记录事实,但从未用在自己身上)②朋友的话("You don't have to be perfect to be our friend")③自我质疑的起点("But is that really true?") 伏笔,全文核心主旨是 用科学家的客观思维对抗完美主义的自我伤害——真正的科学家精神不是追求完美,而是客观分析数据、不带偏见地看待自己,学会自我接纳。
4、 范文展示
第一段:Amy decided to answer it like a scientist.
She picked up her notebook and wrote beneath those negative words: "Fact: The test was hard. Fact: Only one person scored higher. Emotion: I feel like a failure." Staring at the lines, she realized the evidence didn't support her harsh label. The proof showed that she was not stupid — just human. She designed a new experiment: instead of panicking, she would review errors systematically, sleep seven hours nightly, and practice math for thirty minutes daily. Slowly, a wave of relief washed over her. She began sleeping better, reconnecting with friends, and treating setbacks as data points rather than final judgments. It dawned on her that being a scientist wasn't about perfection — it was about asking questions and learning from the data, even when the results weren't what she expected. By the time finals approached, she had traded fear for curiosity.
第二段:Months later, Amy received her final exam results.
Math: 90. English: 93. Not flawless, but solid. Looking back, she finally understood that being a scientist wasn't about never failing — it was about analyzing the facts without bias and growing from every outcome. The weight on her shoulders lifted as she realized she was not a failed experiment; she was a work in progress. She called her friend, laughing, and made plans for the weekend. From this experience, she learned that the most vital research was on herself: how to fail forward, learn constantly, and let others in. The university doors would open, she believed, not because she was perfect, but because she was resilient. And that was her breakthrough discovery.

参考范文
Amy was scared for a second, but then she thought like a scientist. She took a deep breath and calmly recalled the backup plan she’d prepared after reading about data safety in her science books. She remembered she had saved her files on a USB drive, so she quickly put it into her father’s laptop. With her detailed notes, she calculated the growth rates again by hand and checked them against the humidity records. By midnight, she’d reconstructed 90% of the data, even discovering a hidden pattern — plants watered with vinegar solution grew 15% faster in humid conditions. She smiled, realizing challenges could sometimes lead to unexpected discoveries.
Weeks later, “The Garden Research Project” finally paid off. At the science fair, Amy’s stand drew crowds. She confidently explained how she’d adapted her experiment midcourse, stressing the vinegar solution’s effect and her data-recovery process. Finally, she won the first prize. With the prize money, she bought a new digital thermometer, just as she had planned. Her father’s eyes met hers, shining with pride. This experience brought her a greater prize: a strong belief in her own ability to solve problems. This was the real treasure, one that would grow with time.
