B In Aleksandra’s studio in Haikou, the capital of Hainan, an oil painting of St. Basil’s Cathedral hangs beside a portrait capturing the grace of a woman from the Li ethnic group, symbolizing two distinct aspects of the artist’s life. Raised in a family of artists, the 24-year-old Russian woman developed a profound love for painting from an early age. Six years ago, she relocated to Hainan and set up her studio there. Her fascination with Chinese culture was bolstered when she was 10 years old. “I picked up the language through the internet, books and TV. I simply adore Chinese culture.” In 2018, driven by her passion, Aleksandra journeyed to Hainan to study, where she was captured by the island’s peaceful natural beauty and unhurried pace of life. “It’s an incredibly beautiful place, and the people are kind, charming and authentically simple,” she reflects. “Life unfolds at a leisurely pace, allowing them to harmonize with nature.” Living in Hainan enables her to immerse herself in nature and humanity, two beloved themes in her artwork. The local people and culture have become essential to her life as she and her husband, whom she met on the island, have ventured through its landscapes together. “We ventured into the heart of Hainan. It was during these journeys that I first encountered the Li people,” she recalls. The Li brocade (织锦) has left a lasting impact on her. This traditional textile of the Li ethnic group in Hainan is regarded as a “living fossil” of the textile industry, boasting a history of over 3,000 years. “When you witness a woman weaving this brocade, she is narrating a tale passed down through generations, such as that of Dalishen, the God of Strength, watching over us. It not only inspires me but also empowers me to create,” she says. She strives to capture the complicated patterns of the brocade in her paintings, weaving local culture into her creations — a process that has brought her profound satisfaction. 4. What inspired Aleksandra to set up her studio in Haikou? A. Her passion for painting. B. The low cost of living. C. Her desire for further study. D. The local scenery and lifestyle. 5. What does the underlined word “bolstered” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Fueled. B. Recovered. C. Blocked. D. Weakened. 6. What is a feature of Aleksandra’s works? A. They tell fairy stories. B. They reflect Li ethnic culture. C. They center on weaving techniques. D. They stress the history of the Li people. 7. What is the purpose of the text? A. To attract people to Haikou. B. To highlight China’s cultural diversity. C. To advertise an artist’s works. D. To introduce a foreign artist in China. C As the school year began, millions of students in 17 states, from New York to Kentucky, were newly prohibited from taking phones into the classroom. This brought the total to 35 states with such rules, though researchers had noted that scientific evidence for the benefits was thin. However, a new working paper by Dr. Alp Sungu of the University of Pennsylvania offers convincing evidence from a large-scale randomized controlled trial (RCT) — the gold standard in social science. The study involved 16,955 students taking 2,000 courses in India, randomly assigned to phone-submission or phone-access classrooms. The phone-free students performed better academically. The increase was greatest among first-year students who were low performers and studying subjects outside of science and maths. The average improvement was on the order of 0.086 standard deviations (标准差). This is small, but the effects of most educational interventions are small. For comparison, it is similar to “replacing an average teacher with a very good one” for a term, says Dr. Sungu. “That could make the difference between passing and failing, and potentially reduce dropout rates and increase graduation rates over time,” says Dr. Beland, an economist at Carleton University. “For low-achieving students, even slight differences can really matter,” he says. The study by Dr. Sungu and his team also found that bans created an environment that facilitated learning. Random classroom spot-checks found less student chatter and interrupting behaviour. Bans are easy to conduct, requiring no training and little investment. Perhaps more importantly, many students can see the benefits. After experiencing a ban for a term, students in the Indian study were 20% more likely to support prohibitions, with the largest increase in approval for the most restrictive policy option: phone-free schools. Even if banning phones becomes a universal, evidence-based policy, though, there are still tablets and laptops, equally distracting. Some studies of computer use in college classrooms in America found exam scores declined. This suggests that phone bans may fail, as in Swedish schools, because students simply switch to laptops. American schools should take notice. 8. What makes Dr. Sungu’s research findings convincing? A. The research method. B. The data analysis. C. The research duration. D. The theoretical foundation. 9. What does Dr. Beland think of phone bans? A. They rely much on teachers to succeed. B. They help reduce classroom misbehavior. C. They can bring about significant influence. D. They are mainly intended for phone addicts. 10. What happened to the Indian students after the phone ban? A. Top students made greater progress. B. They preferred less strict policies. C. Weak students supported the ban most. D. Their support for the ban increased. 11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Stricter phone bans are needed in US schools. B. Other electronic devices also deserve attention. C. Effects of the policy vary from country to country. D. The policy’s benefits may result from other factors. D In the next few months, millions will apply for postgraduate study. Most plan to get a master’s degree, hoping it will help them stand out in a crowded job market. People often think they need a master’s degree to get or keep a job, mainly because they feel insecure, yet research shows a master’s usually raises pay much less than a college degree, and some programs leave graduates worse off. Despite the limited benefits for graduates, universities still have reasons to admit more postgraduates. In Britain, undergraduate fees are controlled by the government and have barely risen for ten years. Enrolling more postgraduates, who can be charged higher fees, is one way to make more money. In America, as fewer young people attend college, universities hope more students will return for master’s degrees. Since 2000, the cost of studying for a master’s in America has tripled. Many students still pay high fees because they believe higher degrees will help them earn more. In fact, people with a college degree make about 70% more than high-school graduates, while those with a master’s earn about 18% more. The subject chosen matters most. In America, master’s degrees in computer science and engineering bring the biggest pay rise. In some subjects, people even earn less. In Britain, men with a master’s in politics make about 10% less in their mid-30s than those who only studied it at college; for history, the drop is about 20%, and for English, nearly 30%. Women are more likely than men to gain from a master’s degree. A British study finds such degrees raise women’s earnings in 14 of 31 subjects, but for men, only in six. This is surprising because men usually earn more, and the gap grows with education. Still, women with higher degrees often earn more than those without, as they tend to work longer hours, especially after becoming parents. 12. What motivates many people to pursue a master’s degree? A. They want to gain an edge in the job market. B. They expect to find easier jobs after graduation. C. They hope to earn more than college graduates. D. They wish to prepare for further academic study. 13. Why do many universities want more postgraduate students? A. To earn more from higher tuition fees. B. To cope with the rising undergraduate fees. C. To attract returning students and adult learners. D. To provide more opportunities in technical fields. 14. What is the writer’s attitude toward people’s pursuit of master’s degrees? A. Appreciative. B. Unconcerned. C. Objective. D. Disapproving. 15. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. How a Master’s Degree Increases a Graduate’s Pay? B. Why Universities Enroll More Postgraduate Students? C. The Decline in Students Pursuing a Master’s Degree. D. The Value of a Master’s Degree and Its Impact Factors. 第二节(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10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。 Problem-solving skills are increasingly valuable in the workplace and could help you achieve more in your personal life too.

While playing, Anna said to the kids, “I am going to plant something in the garden. Who would like to help me?” “What are you going to plant, Grandma?” asked Julie. “I like pleasant, bright-colored roses.” “But I like lively, big, yellow sunflowers!” said Fred. “Well, I’m going to plant some vegetables so that we can have fresh vegetables to eat when they are ready,” said Anna. “How long does that take?” asked Erik. He liked vegetables sometimes, especially tomatoes. “It will take several months before anything is ready to eat,” answered Anna. The kids were surprised. “Several months? Why would you do all that work and then have to wait so long?” asked Julie. “Why not just go to the store and buy them?” “Patience, my sweeties! Don’t you know food always tastes best when you grow it yourself?” replied Anna. “And if all of you come to help, it won’t be too much work.” “I’ll help you, Grandma,” offered Erik. He put down the basketball and went to look at the gardening tools Anna had laid out. “What should we do first?” Fred and Julie came over to have a look, too. Firstly, Anna taught Erik how to use a travel (小铲子) to dig rows of small holes for the seeds. Next, she showed Julie how to pour the seeds into each hole carefully. And then it was Fred’s job to cover up the holes with soil little by little. Finally, Julie wrote the vegetable names on sticks that Erik pushed into the ground. “This way we can remember which vegetable seeds we have planted,” said Anna. After planting everything, the kids took turns in filling up the watering pot so that Anna could make the soil nice and wet for the seeds to start to grow. “From now on, we just water them a little each day, and with some time and sunshine, we’ll have some delicious things to eat in the summer,” said Anna. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Every time the kids came to visit, they would rush into the garden as fast as possible. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Eventually, Anna said, “It was about time for the first harvest.” ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 宝鸡中学2024级高三第一学期诊断性考试试题 英语 本试卷共五大题，77小题。考试时长120分钟，卷面满分150分。 注意事项： 1．答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、班级、考场/座位号填写在答题卡上，将条形码准确粘贴在条形码粘贴处。 2．回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑;如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其它答案标号。涂写在本试卷上无效。 3．作答非选择题时，将答案书写在答题卡上，书写在本试卷上无效。 4．考试结束后，将答题卡交回。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 1.

Raised in a family of artists, the 24-year-old Russian woman developed a profound love for painting from an early age. Six years ago, she relocated to Hainan and set up her studio there. Her fascination with Chinese culture was bolstered when she was 10 years old. “I picked up the language through the internet, books and TV. I simply adore Chinese culture.” In 2018, driven by her passion, Aleksandra journeyed to Hainan to study, where she was captured by the island’s peaceful natural beauty and unhurried pace of life. “It’s an incredibly beautiful place, and the people are kind, charming and authentically simple,” she reflects. “Life unfolds at a leisurely pace, allowing them to harmonize with nature.” Living in Hainan enables her to immerse herself in nature and humanity, two beloved themes in her artwork. The local people and culture have become essential to her life as she and her husband, whom she met on the island, have ventured through its landscapes together. “We ventured into the heart of Hainan. It was during these journeys that I first encountered the Li people,” she recalls. The Li brocade (织锦) has left a lasting impact on her. This traditional textile of the Li ethnic group in Hainan is regarded as a “living fossil” of the textile industry, boasting a history of over 3,000 years. “When you witness a woman weaving this brocade, she is narrating a tale passed down through generations, such as that of Dalishen, the God of Strength, watching over us. It not only inspires me but also empowers me to create,” she says. She strives to capture the complicated patterns of the brocade in her paintings, weaving local culture into her creations — a process that has brought her profound satisfaction. 4. What inspired Aleksandra to set up her studio in Haikou? A. Her passion for painting. B. The low cost of living. C. Her desire for further study. D. The local scenery and lifestyle. 5. What does the underlined word “bolstered” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Fueled. B. Recovered. C. Blocked. D. Weakened. 6. What is a feature of Aleksandra’s works? A. They tell fairy stories. B. They reflect Li ethnic culture. C. They center on weaving techniques. D. They stress the history of the Li people. 7. What is the purpose of the text? A. To attract people to Haikou. B. To highlight China’s cultural diversity. C. To advertise an artist’s works. D. To introduce a foreign artist in China. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了俄罗斯女画家Aleksandra受中国文化的吸引，定居在海口，在这里她深深爱上了黎族文化。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Six years ago, she relocated to Hainan and set up her studio there.(六年前，她搬到海南，在那里建立了工作室。)”和“In 2018, driven by her passion, Aleksandra journeyed to Hainan to study, where she was captured by the island’s peaceful natural beauty and unhurried pace of life.(2018年，在热情的驱使下，Aleksandra前往海南学习，在那里她被海南宁静的自然美景和悠闲的生活节奏所吸引。)”可知，海南当地的自然美景和悠闲的生活方式给她留下深刻印象，所以她决定搬到这里并成立了工作室。故选D。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中的“I picked up the language through the internet, books and TV. I simply adore Chinese culture.(我通过互联网、书籍和电视学会了这门语言。我真的喜欢中国文化。)”可知，Aleksandra非常喜欢中国文化，结合画线词前的“Her fascination with Chinese culture”和画线词后的“when she was 10 years old”可推知，在她10岁时，她对中国文化的兴趣加强了，所以她才会想要学习汉语这门语言。bolster意为“增强”，与fuel意思一致。故选A。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“She strives to capture the complicated patterns of the brocade in her paintings, weaving local culture into her creations—a process that has brought her profound satisfaction.(她努力在画作中捕捉黎族织锦的复杂图案，将当地文化融入她的创作中——这一过程给她带来了极大的满足感。)”可知，她的画作中捕捉了黎族织锦的复杂图案，融合了黎族的文化。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“In Aleksandra’s studio in Haikou, the capital of Hainan, an oil painting of St. Basil’s Cathedral hangs beside a portrait capturing the grace of a woman from the Li ethnic group, symbolizing two distinct aspects of the artist’s life.(在海南省会海口的Aleksandra工作室里，一幅圣巴索大教堂的油画挂在一幅描绘黎族女性优雅的肖像旁边，这象征着这位艺术家生活的两个不同方面。)”并结合下文内容可知，本文主要讲述了一位俄罗斯女画家Aleksandra受中国文化的吸引，在海口定居并成立了工作室，在这里她深深爱上了黎族文化，由此可知，本文主要是为了介绍一位在中国生活的外国艺术家。故选D。 C As the school year began, millions of students in 17 states, from New York to Kentucky, were newly prohibited from taking phones into the classroom. This brought the total to 35 states with such rules, though researchers had noted that scientific evidence for the benefits was thin. However, a new working paper by Dr. Alp Sungu of the University of Pennsylvania offers convincing evidence from a large-scale randomized controlled trial (RCT) — the gold standard in social science. The study involved 16,955 students taking 2,000 courses in India, randomly assigned to phone-submission or phone-access classrooms. The phone-free students performed better academically. The increase was greatest among first-year students who were low performers and studying subjects outside of science and maths. The average improvement was on the order of 0.086 standard deviations (标准差). This is small, but the effects of most educational interventions are small. For comparison, it is similar to “replacing an average teacher with a very good one” for a term, says Dr. Sungu. “That could make the difference between passing and failing, and potentially reduce dropout rates and increase graduation rates over time,” says Dr. Beland, an economist at Carleton University. “For low-achieving students, even slight differences can really matter,” he says. The study by Dr. Sungu and his team also found that bans created an environment that facilitated learning. Random classroom spot-checks found less student chatter and interrupting behaviour. Bans are easy to conduct, requiring no training and little investment. Perhaps more importantly, many students can see the benefits. After experiencing a ban for a term, students in the Indian study were 20% more likely to support prohibitions, with the largest increase in approval for the most restrictive policy option: phone-free schools. Even if banning phones becomes a universal, evidence-based policy, though, there are still tablets and laptops, equally distracting. Some studies of computer use in college classrooms in America found exam scores declined. This suggests that phone bans may fail, as in Swedish schools, because students simply switch to laptops. American schools should take notice. 8. What makes Dr. Sungu’s research findings convincing? A. The research method. B. The data analysis. C. The research duration. D. The theoretical foundation. 9. What does Dr. Beland think of phone bans? A. They rely much on teachers to succeed. B. They help reduce classroom misbehavior. C. They can bring about significant influence. D. They are mainly intended for phone addicts. 10. What happened to the Indian students after the phone ban? A. Top students made greater progress. B. They preferred less strict policies. C. Weak students supported the ban most. D. Their support for the ban increased. 11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Stricter phone bans are needed in US schools. B. Other electronic devices also deserve attention. C. Effects of the policy vary from country to country. D. The policy’s benefits may result from other factors. 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍35州推行课堂手机禁令，Sungu博士的RCT研究证实其提升成绩（后进生尤著）、优化课堂，学生支持度上升，但需关注平板等其他电子设备的干扰。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“However, a new working paper by Dr. Alp Sungu of the University of Pennsylvania offers convincing evidence from a large-scale randomized controlled trial (RCT) — the gold standard in social science.(然而，宾夕法尼亚大学的Alp Sungu博士所撰写的一份新工作论文提供了来自大规模随机对照试验（这是社会科学领域的最高标准）的有力证据)”可知，Sungu博士的研究成果因为其研究方法令人信服。故选A。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段““That could make the difference between passing and failing, and potentially reduce dropout rates and increase graduation rates over time,” says Dr. Beland, an economist at Carleton University. “For low-achieving students, even slight differences can really matter,” he says.(卡尔顿大学的经济学家Beland博士表示：“这可能会决定学生能否通过考试，而且从长远来看，还可能降低辍学率并提高毕业率。”他说道：“对于成绩不佳的学生来说，哪怕是很小的差异也非常重要。”)”可知，Beland博士认为手机禁令能够产生重大影响。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“After experiencing a ban for a term, students in the Indian study were 20% more likely to support prohibitions, with the largest increase in approval for the most restrictive policy option: phone-free schools.(在经历了为期一段时间的禁令后，印度研究中的学生支持禁令的比例提高了20%。其中，对于最严格的政策选项——“手机禁入学校”的政策，支持率的提升幅度最大)”可知，在手机禁令实施后，印度学生支持率上升。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Even if banning phones becomes a universal, evidence-based policy, though, there are still tablets and laptops, equally distracting. Some studies of computer use in college classrooms in America found exam scores declined. This suggests that phone bans may fail, as in Swedish schools, because students simply switch to laptops. American schools should take notice.(即便禁止使用手机成为一项普遍且基于证据的政策，但仍有平板电脑和笔记本电脑存在，同样会分散学生的注意力。美国一些关于大学课堂上电脑使用情况的研究发现，学生的考试成绩有所下降。这表明，像瑞典学校那样实施的手机禁令可能会失败，因为学生们会直接转而使用笔记本电脑。美国的学校应当予以重视)”可知，其他电子设备也值得关注。故选B。 D In the next few months, millions will apply for postgraduate study. Most plan to get a master’s degree, hoping it will help them stand out in a crowded job market. People often think they need a master’s degree to get or keep a job, mainly because they feel insecure, yet research shows a master’s usually raises pay much less than a college degree, and some programs leave graduates worse off. Despite the limited benefits for graduates, universities still have reasons to admit more postgraduates. In Britain, undergraduate fees are controlled by the government and have barely risen for ten years. Enrolling more postgraduates, who can be charged higher fees, is one way to make more money. In America, as fewer young people attend college, universities hope more students will return for master’s degrees. Since 2000, the cost of studying for a master’s in America has tripled. Many students still pay high fees because they believe higher degrees will help them earn more. In fact, people with a college degree make about 70% more than high-school graduates, while those with a master’s earn about 18% more. The subject chosen matters most. In America, master’s degrees in computer science and engineering bring the biggest pay rise. In some subjects, people even earn less. In Britain, men with a master’s in politics make about 10% less in their mid-30s than those who only studied it at college; for history, the drop is about 20%, and for English, nearly 30%. Women are more likely than men to gain from a master’s degree. A British study finds such degrees raise women’s earnings in 14 of 31 subjects, but for men, only in six. This is surprising because men usually earn more, and the gap grows with education. Still, women with higher degrees often earn more than those without, as they tend to work longer hours, especially after becoming parents. 12. What motivates many people to pursue a master’s degree? A. They want to gain an edge in the job market. B. They expect to find easier jobs after graduation. C. They hope to earn more than college graduates. D. They wish to prepare for further academic study. 13. Why do many universities want more postgraduate students? A. To earn more from higher tuition fees. B. To cope with the rising undergraduate fees. C. To attract returning students and adult learners. D. To provide more opportunities in technical fields. 14. What is the writer’s attitude toward people’s pursuit of master’s degrees? A. Appreciative. B. Unconcerned. C. Objective. D. Disapproving. 15. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. How a Master’s Degree Increases a Graduate’s Pay? B. Why Universities Enroll More Postgraduate Students? C. The Decline in Students Pursuing a Master’s Degree. D. The Value of a Master’s Degree and Its Impact Factors. 【答案】12. A 13. A 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨人们攻读硕士学位的动机、高校扩招研究生的原因，以及影响硕士学位价值的关键因素。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“In the next few months, millions will apply for postgraduate study.

In Britain, undergraduate fees are controlled by the government and have barely risen for ten years. Enrolling more postgraduates, who can be charged higher fees, is one way to make more money. In America, as fewer young people attend college, universities hope more students will return for master’s degrees. Since 2000, the cost of studying for a master’s in America has tripled.(尽管硕士学位对毕业生的好处有限，但高校仍有理由扩招研究生。在英国，本科学费受政府管控，十年来几乎没有上涨。招收更多能收取更高学费的研究生是增加收入的一种方式。在美国，随着上大学的年轻人减少，高校希望更多学生返校攻读硕士学位。自2000年以来，美国硕士学位的学费已经涨了三倍。)”可知，许多高校希望扩招研究生的原因是能从更高的学费中赚取更多收入。故选A项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“People often think they need a master’s degree to get or keep a job, mainly because they feel insecure, yet research shows a master’s usually raises pay much less than a college degree, and some programs leave graduates worse off.(人们常常认为自己需要硕士学位才能找到或保住工作，这主要是因为他们缺乏安全感，然而研究表明，硕士学位对薪资的提升幅度通常远低于本科学位，而且一些硕士项目甚至会让毕业生的处境变得更糟。)”、第四段中的“The subject chosen matters most. In America, master’s degrees in computer science and engineering bring the biggest pay rise. In some subjects, people even earn less.(所选的专业至关重要。在美国，计算机科学和工程专业的硕士学位能带来最大幅度的薪资增长。而在一些专业，硕士毕业生的收入甚至更低。)”以及第五段中的“Women are more likely than men to gain from a master’s degree.(女性比男性更有可能从硕士学位中获益。)”可知，作者既指出人们攻读硕士学位的普遍想法，又客观呈现研究数据、不同专业和性别的差异，没有偏向性的支持或反对态度。因此作者对人们攻读硕士学位的态度是客观的。选项A“赞赏的”、B“不关心的”、D“不赞成的”均不符合作者的态度。故选C项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“In the next few months, millions will apply for postgraduate study.

While playing, Anna said to the kids, “I am going to plant something in the garden. Who would like to help me?” “What are you going to plant, Grandma?” asked Julie. “I like pleasant, bright-colored roses.” “But I like lively, big, yellow sunflowers!” said Fred. “Well, I’m going to plant some vegetables so that we can have fresh vegetables to eat when they are ready,” said Anna. “How long does that take?” asked Erik. He liked vegetables sometimes, especially tomatoes. “It will take several months before anything is ready to eat,” answered Anna. The kids were surprised. “Several months? Why would you do all that work and then have to wait so long?” asked Julie. “Why not just go to the store and buy them?” “Patience, my sweeties! Don’t you know food always tastes best when you grow it yourself?” replied Anna. “And if all of you come to help, it won’t be too much work.” “I’ll help you, Grandma,” offered Erik. He put down the basketball and went to look at the gardening tools Anna had laid out. “What should we do first?” Fred and Julie came over to have a look, too. Firstly, Anna taught Erik how to use a travel (小铲子) to dig rows of small holes for the seeds. Next, she showed Julie how to pour the seeds into each hole carefully. And then it was Fred’s job to cover up the holes with soil little by little. Finally, Julie wrote the vegetable names on sticks that Erik pushed into the ground. “This way we can remember which vegetable seeds we have planted,” said Anna. After planting everything, the kids took turns in filling up the watering pot so that Anna could make the soil nice and wet for the seeds to start to grow. “From now on, we just water them a little each day, and with some time and sunshine, we’ll have some delicious things to eat in the summer,” said Anna. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Every time the kids came to visit, they would rush into the garden as fast as possible. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Eventually, Anna said, “It was about time for the first harvest.” ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Every time the kids came to visit, they would dash into the garden as fast as possible. Not surprisingly, they were going to see how the garden was growing. After watering the vegetables, they would remove the weeds that popped up around the plants and apply organic fertilizer under Nana’s instruction if necessary. As time went by, the plants were growing taller and stronger. When they noticed the vegetables flowering and producing fruits, their eyes were sparkling like diamonds. Never had they looked forward to summer like this before. But they clearly knew that it’s worthwhile to wait for the inviting results. Eventually, Anna said, “It was about time for the first harvest.” Hearing that, the children all jumped into the air and cheers filled the whole garden. Nana gave them each baskets and, together they gathered some of the cucumbers, carrots and tomatoes, which we’re turned into delicacies. “Who wants to help eat this fresh salad?” Nana asked. “Me!” everyone responded loudly. Tasting the salad, they thought nothing could be more delicious, because it was they who grew these vegetables. They all learned that many hands make light work and patience really pays off. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了在一个阳光明媚的早春早晨，安娜和她的孙子朱莉、弗雷德和埃里克在后院快乐地玩耍。他们决定种植一些蔬菜，并且耐心照顾这些蔬菜，最后获得了丰收。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“每次孩子们来拜访，他们都会尽可能快地冲进花园。”可知，第一段可描写孩子们照顾蔬菜的经过以及期待夏天到来。 ②由第二段首句内容“最后，安娜说：‘到了第一次收获的时候了。’”可知，第二段可描写孩子们收获时的表现以及感悟。 2.续写线索：孩子们冲进花园——照顾蔬菜——期待结果——收获——欢呼高兴——孩子们感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①查看：see/examine ②去除：remove/wipe out ③注意到：notice/take notice of 情绪类 ①值得：worthwhile/worthy ②清楚：clearly/ fully aware of 【点睛】[高分句型1] After watering the vegetables, they would remove the weeds that popped up around the plants and apply organic fertilizer under Nana’s instruction if necessary.
