A passenger threw herself into the seat next to me, holding a bunch of shopping bags tightly against her chest. “Anyone sitting here?” she asked. “No, please sit,” I replied, wishing the train would start moving soon. I boarded at Cardiff Central Train Station after spending the New Year’s holiday with my parents. I was supposed to go home the next week, but a call from my wife completely messed up the plan: Our daughter’s singing competition had been brought forward to that evening. Now I sat staring at my watch, silently begging the engine to go faster. The train was crowded with last-minute shoppers, and a few seats away three teenage girls were laughing and showing each other gifts. Their northern accents were a small comfort to me. “In a rush?” the lady beside me asked. I nodded and began to explain my situation, trying to ignore the pity I saw in her eyes. As the train stopped at each station, the growing darkness outside seemed to steal any hope I had. I checked my phone again and again, but there was no reply from my wife. Finally, the train arrived. I rushed out of the station and into the biting cold. Snow was falling like feathers, but I had no time to admire it. Finding a taxi, I gave the driver my destination — the City Concert Hall — and felt my voice break. The taxi drove through the busy market, while I kept looking at my phone, feeling each minute slip away too fast. At last, the taxi pulled up outside the hall. I paid and hurried inside, where a volunteer pointed me to the competition hall. I ran as fast as I could, fearing that I might be too late. The doors were locked; I pressed the bell impatiently. With a soft click, the door opened, and I found myself facing a crowd of parents and teachers. Just then, I heard the words I had been waiting for: “She made it! Your daughter won first place!” 4. How did the author feel according to paragraph 1? A. Embarrassed. B. Anxious. C. Hopeful. D. Shocked. 5. Why did the author go back early? A. To join the New Year’s party. B. To meet his wife at the station. C. To spend time with his parents. D. To attend his daughter’s contest. 6. What was the author worried about on the train? A. His wife’s safety. B. The cold weather. C. The noisy teenagers. D. His daughter’s situation. 7. What can we know about the author from the text? A. He was an impatient man. B. He failed to enter the hall. C. He missed the competition. D. He was surprised by the result. 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者在新年假期后紧急赶回家参加女儿歌唱比赛的经历，描述了他在火车上的焦急等待、途中的紧张心情以及最终赶到比赛现场得知女儿获得第一名的故事。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中““Anyone sitting here?” she asked. “No, please sit,” I replied, wishing the train would start moving soon. (“这里有人吗？”她问道，“没有，请坐吧，”我回答道，心里希望火车能尽快开动。)”可知，作者急切地希望火车尽快出发，说明他内心十分焦急不安。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“I was supposed to go home the next week, but a call from my wife completely messed up the plan: Our daughter’s singing competition had been brought forward to that evening. (我原计划下周回家，但妻子打来的电话彻底打乱了计划：我们女儿的歌唱比赛被提前到了当晚。)”可知，作者提前赶回去是为了参加女儿的歌唱比赛。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“As the train stopped at each station, the growing darkness outside seemed to steal any hope I had. I checked my phone again and again, but there was no reply from my wife. (火车在每个车站停靠时，外面越来越深的黑暗似乎夺走了我所有的希望。我反复查看手机，但妻子却没有任何回应。)”可知，作者在火车上反复查看手机却收不到妻子的回复，内心担忧的是女儿比赛的情况。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“The doors were locked; I pressed the bell impatiently. (门是锁着的；我不耐烦地按了门铃。)”以及“She made it! Your daughter won first place! (她成功了！你女儿获得了第一名！)”可知，作者赶到时比赛已经开始，门都锁了，说明他错过了比赛的全部进行过程，仅赶上了结果宣布环节。 C An environmental group, NatureServe, says 40 percent of animals and 34 percent of plants in the United States are at risk of disappearing. The group recently released a report based on 50 years of data from over 1,000 scientists across the country. It also found that 41 percent of ecosystems, including life forms, land and water, are facing collapse. Many kinds of creatures are in danger, including crayfish, cacti, and freshwater mussels. For example, the Venus flytrap, a plant that “eats” insects, is now only found in the wild in a few places in North and South Carolina. About half of all U. S. cactus species and 200 kinds of trees may die out. Large northern grasslands are also among the most threatened ecosystems. The report provides pictures and maps showing where animals and plants are most at risk. The main threats include environmental destruction, land-use change, invasive species, river pollution, and climate change. California, Texas, and the southeastern U. S. have the highest percentages of species at risk. Scientists say this is partly because these areas have many different forms of life and also have seen a lot of population growth in recent years. Sean O’Brien is the president of NatureServe. He said the data in the report was very worrying. He hopes the report will help lawmakers pass wildlife protection laws. John Kanter is a biologist with the National Wildlife Federation, a non-profit group also based in Virginia. He noted that the report could steer state officials in creating effective action plans. Currently, federal money for wildlife protection is limited, but a proposed bill would greatly increase it. Kanter added, “Our biodiversity is like a nature savings account. If we don’t keep track of what’s out there and what the threats are, there’s no way to take action first.” He believes that with better information, people can protect nature and build a healthier future for all living things. The report gives hope that by working together, humans can save endangered species and keep the planet beautiful for generations to come. 8. How did the group get the findings? A. By studying the past data. B. By taking pictures and maps. C. By interviewing local officials. D. By watching animals in nature. 9. What is the purpose of paragraph 2? A. To show different views. B. To provide more information. C. To offer a new argument. D. To explain some reasons. 10. What does the underlined word “steer” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Guide. B. Follow. C. Train. D. Regulate. 11. What does Kanter stress about the report in the last paragraph? A. Its process. B. Its challenges. C. Its significance. D. Its applications. 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了美国动植物濒危现状、成因及相关保护建议。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“The group recently released a report based on 50 years of data from over 1,000 scientists across the country.(该组织近期发布了一份基于全美1000多名科学家50年数据的报告)”可知，研究小组是通过研究过往数据得出这些发现的。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Many kinds of creatures are in danger, including crayfish, cacti, and freshwater mussels.(许多生物濒临灭绝，包括小龙虾、仙人掌和淡水贻贝)”及“The report provides pictures and maps showing where animals and plants are most at risk.(报告提供了图片和地图，标注了动植物风险最高的区域)”可知，本段旨在通过列举具体物种和数据补充更多相关信息。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段“John Kanter is a biologist with the National Wildlife Federation, a non-profit group also based in Virginia. He noted that the report could steer state officials in creating effective action plans. (约翰·坎特是总部同样位于弗吉尼亚州的非营利组织——国家野生动物联合会的生物学家。他指出，这份报告能够steer州政府官员制定有效的行动计划)”可知，报告作为一种参考信息，其作用是为官员的决策提供方向或指引，帮助他们制定出有效的计划，steer在此处意为“引导、指导”，与“Guide”意思相同。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“He believes that with better information, people can protect nature and build a healthier future for all living things.(他认为，凭借更完善的信息，人们能够保护自然，为所有生物建设更健康的未来)”可知，Kanter强调了这份报告的重要意义。 D Archaeologists and researchers at the ancient Roman site of Pompeii have used artificial intelligence (AI) for the first time to digitally rebuild the face of a man killed in the AD 79 eruption of Mount Vesuvius that covered the city, offering a new way to understand one of history’s most famous natural disasters. The digital picture shows a man whose remains, along with those of another person, were discovered was trying to get away from the city toward the coast of what is now Italy during the volcanic eruption. Researchers believe the man died early in the disaster, during a heavy fall of volcanic material. The rebuilding was done by the Pompeii Archaeological Park, which announced on its website that it was done with the University of Padua and based on archaeological survey data from digs near the Porta Stabia burial ground, just outside the walls of the ancient city. The announcement shows the AI-generated image of what the man could have looked like. He is shown running along a rough, debris-covered road, holding a large, shallow bowl over his head and using it as a shield while Mount Vesuvius is seen erupting in the background. The man was also carrying an oil lamp, a small iron ring and 10 bronze coins, personal objects that offer insight into his last moments as well as into daily life in Pompeii before the disaster. Pompeii, a UNESCO World Heritage site near Naples, was buried under ash and pumice when Vesuvius erupted nearly 2,000 years ago, keeping the city and the remains of thousands of its people in very fine detail. Old accounts, including those of Roman writer Pliny the Younger, describe Pompeii’s residents using objects to protect themselves as ash and debris covered the city. The digital picture was created by using AI and photo-editing techniques designed to turn skeletal and archaeological data into a realistic human likeness. 12. In what aspect can the picture offer help? A. Finding more ancient remains near Pompeii. B. Rebuilding the old walls and ground of Pompeii. C. Showing the daily diet of the people in Pompeii. D. Studying the volcanic eruption destroying Pompeii. 13. What was the man in the picture doing? A. Cooking his food. B. Observing the volcano. C. Escaping from Pompeii. D. Collecting volcanic material. 14. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. The details of the image. B. The daily life of the man. C. The cause of the eruption. D. The features of Pompeii. 15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Volcano Ruined the Ancient City Pompeii B. AI Recreated the Face of a Man in Pompeii C. Photos Record a Famous Volcanic Eruption D. AI Helps Scientists Study Ancient Disasters 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍庞贝古城考古遗址的考古学家与研究人员首次运用人工智能，数字重建了公元79年维苏威火山爆发中遇难男子的面部样貌，阐述了这一AI生成肖像的背景与具体信息，为研究这场著名自然灾害提供了新途径。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Archaeologists and researchers at the ancient Roman site of Pompeii have used artificial intelligence (AI) for the first time to digitally rebuild the face of a man killed in the AD 79 eruption of Mount Vesuvius that covered the city, offering a new way to understand one of history’s most famous natural disasters.(古罗马庞贝遗址的考古学家和研究人员首次使用人工智能(AI)数字重建了在公元79年掩埋这座城市的维苏威火山爆发中遇难的一名男子的面部，这为了解历史上最著名的自然灾害之一提供了一种新方法)”可知，这张图片能够帮助研究摧毁庞贝古城的火山爆发。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The digital picture shows a man whose remains, along with those of another person, were discovered was trying to get away from the city toward the coast of what is now Italy during the volcanic eruption. (这张数字图像显示，这名男子在火山爆发期间正试图逃离这座城市，前往现在意大利的海岸，他和另一人的遗体一同被发现)”可知，图中的男子正从庞贝古城逃跑。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“The announcement shows the AI-generated image of what the man could have looked like. He is shown running along a rough, debris-covered road, holding a large, shallow bowl over his head and using it as a shield while Mount Vesuvius is seen erupting in the background. The man was also carrying an oil lamp, a small iron ring and 10 bronze coins, personal objects that offer insight into his last moments as well as into daily life in Pompeii before the disaster.(公告展示了AI生成的这名男子原本可能相貌的图像。图像中，他沿着布满碎石的崎岖道路奔跑，把一个大浅碗顶在头上当作盾牌，背景中可以看到维苏威火山正在喷发。这名男子还随身带着一盏油灯、一个小铁环和10枚铜币，这些个人物品让人们得以了解他生命的最后时刻，以及灾难发生前庞贝的日常生活)”可知，第四段主要介绍了这张AI生成图像的细节。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“Archaeologists and researchers at the ancient Roman site of Pompeii have used artificial intelligence (AI) for the first time to digitally rebuild the face of a man killed in the AD 79 eruption of Mount Vesuvius that covered the city(古罗马庞贝遗址的考古学家和研究人员首次使用人工智能(AI)数字重建了在公元79年掩埋这座城市的维苏威火山爆发中遇难的一名男子的面部)”并结合全文内容可知，本文围绕人工智能重建庞贝遇难男子面部这一核心事件展开，“AI Recreated the Face of a Man in Pompeii(人工智能重现了庞贝一名男子的面容)”最适合作为文章标题。 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。 Using Psychology (心理学) to Keep Your House Tidier ●Use positive self-talk to increase self-belief.

These practices greatly reduce your dislike of tidying and help you stick to regular housework. ●Seek help from someone else to encourage you. ____20____.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了如何运用心理学方法（如积极自我暗示、拆分任务、拍照激励、搭配娱乐活动、寻求他人支持）来帮助自己更轻松、更持久地保持家居整洁。 【16题详解】 上文“Use positive self-talk to increase self-belief. When we want to make a change, focusing on the negative probably will lead to giving up. Focus on the positive to further build your self-satisfaction. Imagine yourself succeeding in changing your habit. (使用积极的自我对话来增强自信。当我们想要做出改变时，专注于消极方面可能会导致放弃。关注积极的一面，以进一步建立你的自我满足感。想象你成功地改变了你的习惯。)”强调用积极自我对话、想象自己成功改变习惯来建立自我满足感；选项B“It will help you feel more confident for the day(这会帮助你在当天感到更自信)”正好承接上文想象成功的行为，引出其效果，代词“It”指代前文行为。 【17题详解】 上文“Break cleaning into short daily tasks instead of trying to finish everything at once.(把清洁分成每日小任务，而不是试图一次性完成所有事)”建议分次完成，不要试图一次性完成所有清洁工作；选项G“Finishing all tasks at one time can cause tiredness and make you avoid cleaning later(一次性完成所有任务会导致疲劳，并让你以后逃避清洁)”承接上文，解释了一次性完成所有清洁工作的弊端，反面论证前文观点，并引出下文的预防措施，和后文“This helps prevent tiredness(防止疲惫)”的内容呼应。 【18题详解】 根据下文“Many waste free time playing with their phones. But if you take a picture of your rooms before and after a 10-minute pick-up, you will likely be happy about the difference.(很多人浪费空闲时间玩手机。但如果你在10分钟整理前后拍下房间照片，你可能会对差异感到开心。)”可知，整段核心是10分钟快速整理并在整理前后拍照对比，空格为本段主旨句，概括本段核心做法。选项E“Take before and after photos after every 10-minute quick room tidy(每次快速整理10分钟后拍前后对比照)”精准概括段落核心内容，作为段首主题句最合适。 【19题详解】 上文“Connect boring cleaning with enjoyable daily things to build good habits. Play favorite music or listen to interesting stories while washing floors and cleaning dusty corners.(把枯燥的清洁工作和愉快的日常生活联系起来，养成良好的习惯。在洗地板和打扫满是灰尘的角落时，播放喜欢的音乐或听有趣的故事。)”建议把枯燥的清洁和喜欢的日常生活结合，比如打扫时听喜欢的音乐或故事；选项D“Fun matches can create positive feelings toward housework(有趣的搭配能产生对家务的积极感受)”承接上文，阐述搭配趣味活动做家务带来的好处。“Fun matches”指代前文“打扫搭配音乐、故事”的做法，“create positive feelings toward housework”与下文“reduce your dislike of tidying”逻辑一致。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Seek help from someone else to encourage you.(寻求他人帮助来鼓励自己)”以及下文“Ask a friend, family member, or even a therapist (治疗师) to help encourage you in your efforts to keep your home tidier.(找一位朋友、家人，甚至心理治疗师，让他们在你努力保持家中整洁这件事上多多鼓励你。)”可知，本段主旨是向他人寻求鼓励；选项A“Other people’s support is an important factor(他人的支持是一个重要因素)”点明他人支持的重要性，引出后文找亲友等获取支持的内容。 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，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I used to be a shy and self-doubting teenager.

Deeply moved by the animals’ plight (困境), they decided to help. Rather than spending their summer vacation on typical activities, they would run watermelon juice stands (货摊) to raise funds for the shelter. They spent days preparing colorful signs and fresh watermelon, and setting up their stands at various spots around their neighborhood, hoping to attract as many customers as possible. On one particularly hot afternoon, the temperature climbed well above 36℃, and the girls were stationed outside a busy strip mall where foot traffic was steady. Their stand featured hand-drawn pictures of lovely dogs and cats, along with a sign explaining that all money would go to help animals in need. Business had been good that day, with several neighbors and shoppers stopping by to support their cause. The girls took turns pouring drinks, taking money, and thanking each customer with bright smiles. Around mid-afternoon, a delivery driver named Steve pulled his truck into the parking lot. He needed to send goods to one of the stores there. He had been on the road since early morning. His shirt was all wet with sweat, and the water he had packed that morning had run out one hour before. As he stepped out of the parking lot, the sight of the watermelon juice stand immediately caught his attention, but he simply wiped his brow and turned toward the store entrance. Jenny noticed Steve looked hot and his face was red. She then nudged (用肘轻推) her friends and pointed towards the stranger. “It seems that he really needs this,” Jenny whispered. Her friends nodded in agreement, their eyes softening with the same quiet understanding. 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。 Jenny then filled a large cup with ice-cold watermelon juice and walked towards Steve. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After completing his delivery, Steve returned to the stand. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Jenny then filled a large cup with ice-cold watermelon juice and walked towards Steve. Seeing the exhausted driver, she offered the juice for free. Steve was stunned, having never expected a stranger to treat him on such a scorching day. He thanked Jenny sincerely and drank it up quickly. The cool juice instantly refreshed him. When asked about their charity stand, Steve was touched by the girls’ kind act for homeless animals. After completing his delivery, Steve returned to the stand. He pulled out some cash and bought several cups of watermelon juice, donating extra money to the animal shelter. He also praised the girls for their meaningful summer project and promised to spread their warm story to his colleagues. Inspired by Steve’s support, the girls became more determined. They finally raised enough funds. This experience taught them that small kindness can always bring unexpected warmth and gather great power. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索，讲述了Jenny和三位同学了解到当地动物收容所物资紧缺、动物处境艰难，决定利用暑假摆摊售卖西瓜汁，为救助动物筹集善款的故事。酷热午后，她们在商场外摆摊义卖，偶遇奔波终日、口干舌燥、疲惫不堪的送货司机Steve，善良的女孩们打算主动向他伸出援手。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由首句内容可知，第一段描写Jenny主动为疲惫燥热的送货司机送上免费西瓜汁，Steve倍感意外与温暖，得知女孩们义卖救助动物的善意举动后深受感动。 ②由首句内容可知，第二段描写Steve送完货物后专程折返，主动购买饮品、额外捐款支持公益，还帮忙宣传。女孩们备受鼓舞，最终筹足善款，领悟微小善意汇聚成大爱、传递温暖的真谛。 2.续写线索：赠送冰镇果汁——送货司机倍感温暖——了解公益初衷深受触动——返程归来助力义卖——捐款宣传支持公益——女孩备受鼓舞——筹足资金——感悟善意的力量 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.提供：offer/provide ②.捐赠：donate/contribute ③.宣传：spread/promote 情绪类 ①.疲惫的：exhausted/worn-out ②.震惊的：stunned/shocked 【点睛】[高分句型1].

A passenger threw herself into the seat next to me, holding a bunch of shopping bags tightly against her chest. “Anyone sitting here?” she asked. “No, please sit,” I replied, wishing the train would start moving soon. I boarded at Cardiff Central Train Station after spending the New Year’s holiday with my parents. I was supposed to go home the next week, but a call from my wife completely messed up the plan: Our daughter’s singing competition had been brought forward to that evening. Now I sat staring at my watch, silently begging the engine to go faster. The train was crowded with last-minute shoppers, and a few seats away three teenage girls were laughing and showing each other gifts. Their northern accents were a small comfort to me. “In a rush?” the lady beside me asked. I nodded and began to explain my situation, trying to ignore the pity I saw in her eyes. As the train stopped at each station, the growing darkness outside seemed to steal any hope I had. I checked my phone again and again, but there was no reply from my wife. Finally, the train arrived. I rushed out of the station and into the biting cold. Snow was falling like feathers, but I had no time to admire it. Finding a taxi, I gave the driver my destination — the City Concert Hall — and felt my voice break. The taxi drove through the busy market, while I kept looking at my phone, feeling each minute slip away too fast. At last, the taxi pulled up outside the hall. I paid and hurried inside, where a volunteer pointed me to the competition hall. I ran as fast as I could, fearing that I might be too late. The doors were locked; I pressed the bell impatiently. With a soft click, the door opened, and I found myself facing a crowd of parents and teachers. Just then, I heard the words I had been waiting for: “She made it! Your daughter won first place!” 4. How did the author feel according to paragraph 1? A. Embarrassed. B. Anxious. C. Hopeful. D. Shocked. 5. Why did the author go back early? A. To join the New Year’s party. B.

The group recently released a report based on 50 years of data from over 1,000 scientists across the country. It also found that 41 percent of ecosystems, including life forms, land and water, are facing collapse. Many kinds of creatures are in danger, including crayfish, cacti, and freshwater mussels. For example, the Venus flytrap, a plant that “eats” insects, is now only found in the wild in a few places in North and South Carolina. About half of all U. S. cactus species and 200 kinds of trees may die out. Large northern grasslands are also among the most threatened ecosystems. The report provides pictures and maps showing where animals and plants are most at risk. The main threats include environmental destruction, land-use change, invasive species, river pollution, and climate change. California, Texas, and the southeastern U. S. have the highest percentages of species at risk. Scientists say this is partly because these areas have many different forms of life and also have seen a lot of population growth in recent years. Sean O’Brien is the president of NatureServe. He said the data in the report was very worrying. He hopes the report will help lawmakers pass wildlife protection laws. John Kanter is a biologist with the National Wildlife Federation, a non-profit group also based in Virginia. He noted that the report could steer state officials in creating effective action plans. Currently, federal money for wildlife protection is limited, but a proposed bill would greatly increase it. Kanter added, “Our biodiversity is like a nature savings account. If we don’t keep track of what’s out there and what the threats are, there’s no way to take action first.” He believes that with better information, people can protect nature and build a healthier future for all living things. The report gives hope that by working together, humans can save endangered species and keep the planet beautiful for generations to come. 8. How did the group get the findings? A. By studying the past data. B. By taking pictures and maps. C. By interviewing local officials. D. By watching animals in nature. 9. What is the purpose of paragraph 2? A. To show different views. B. To provide more information. C. To offer a new argument. D. To explain some reasons. 10. What does the underlined word “steer” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Guide. B. Follow. C. Train. D. Regulate. 11. What does Kanter stress about the report in the last paragraph? A. Its process. B. Its challenges. C. Its significance. D. Its applications. D Archaeologists and researchers at the ancient Roman site of Pompeii have used artificial intelligence (AI) for the first time to digitally rebuild the face of a man killed in the AD 79 eruption of Mount Vesuvius that covered the city, offering a new way to understand one of history’s most famous natural disasters. The digital picture shows a man whose remains, along with those of another person, were discovered was trying to get away from the city toward the coast of what is now Italy during the volcanic eruption. Researchers believe the man died early in the disaster, during a heavy fall of volcanic material. The rebuilding was done by the Pompeii Archaeological Park, which announced on its website that it was done with the University of Padua and based on archaeological survey data from digs near the Porta Stabia burial ground, just outside the walls of the ancient city. The announcement shows the AI-generated image of what the man could have looked like. He is shown running along a rough, debris-covered road, holding a large, shallow bowl over his head and using it as a shield while Mount Vesuvius is seen erupting in the background. The man was also carrying an oil lamp, a small iron ring and 10 bronze coins, personal objects that offer insight into his last moments as well as into daily life in Pompeii before the disaster. Pompeii, a UNESCO World Heritage site near Naples, was buried under ash and pumice when Vesuvius erupted nearly 2,000 years ago, keeping the city and the remains of thousands of its people in very fine detail. Old accounts, including those of Roman writer Pliny the Younger, describe Pompeii’s residents using objects to protect themselves as ash and debris covered the city.

Deeply moved by the animals’ plight (困境), they decided to help. Rather than spending their summer vacation on typical activities, they would run watermelon juice stands (货摊) to raise funds for the shelter. They spent days preparing colorful signs and fresh watermelon, and setting up their stands at various spots around their neighborhood, hoping to attract as many customers as possible. On one particularly hot afternoon, the temperature climbed well above 36℃, and the girls were stationed outside a busy strip mall where foot traffic was steady. Their stand featured hand-drawn pictures of lovely dogs and cats, along with a sign explaining that all money would go to help animals in need. Business had been good that day, with several neighbors and shoppers stopping by to support their cause. The girls took turns pouring drinks, taking money, and thanking each customer with bright smiles. Around mid-afternoon, a delivery driver named Steve pulled his truck into the parking lot. He needed to send goods to one of the stores there. He had been on the road since early morning. His shirt was all wet with sweat, and the water he had packed that morning had run out one hour before. As he stepped out of the parking lot, the sight of the watermelon juice stand immediately caught his attention, but he simply wiped his brow and turned toward the store entrance. Jenny noticed Steve looked hot and his face was red. She then nudged (用肘轻推) her friends and pointed towards the stranger. “It seems that he really needs this,” Jenny whispered. Her friends nodded in agreement, their eyes softening with the same quiet understanding. 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。 Jenny then filled a large cup with ice-cold watermelon juice and walked towards Steve. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After completing his delivery, Steve returned to the stand. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
