As the animal wanders into the village, locals warn visitors to keep their distance. When it approaches a cyclist, the crowd gasps. Fortunately, a hotel manager safely guides the rhino away using a bright flashlight, ending the close encounter without harm. However, such incidents highlight a growing challenge: human-wildlife conflict. As Nepal’s conservation efforts succeed, wildlife populations are increasing. For example, the number of rhinos has grown from about 100 in the 1970s to nearly 700 today. While this is a great achievement, it also means more frequent encounters between animals and people, leading to fear and loss of livelihoods. Doma Paudel, Nepal’s first female trail guide, understands this struggle deeply. Growing up near a national park, she often watched animals from a watchtower to protect her family’s crops. Tragically, her mother was killed by a rhino in 2004 while gathering firewood. In traditional Nepali society, women frequently enter forests for wood and food, making them more likely to be attacked by wild animals. In 2024 alone, eight of the eleven people killed by large animals were victims of rhino attacks. To address this, Paudel founded the Wildlife Victim Fund and organized workshops for young environmentalists. They develop strategies to teach communities, especially women and children, how to coexist safely with large wild animals. Farmers like Balkrishna Bhattarai have noticed rhinos entering their fields more often. Recently, a rhino killed his 22-year-old son who tried to chase it away from their crops. In another case, Juna Bote lost her husband to a tiger while he was fishing with friends. Now, she must raise five children alone and fears entering the forest, yet she has no choice but to gather firewood to survive. Despite these hardships, Paudel remains hopeful. She believes that with proper education and community effort, people and wildlife can share the same space. “If we love nature, nature will love us back,” she says, emphasizing that coexistence is essential for both human safety and wildlife conservation. 4. Why did the hotel manager use a flashlight? A. To take photos of the rhino. B. To scare the rhino back to forest. C. To safely direct the animal away. D. To warn tourists to keep distance. 5. Why are women often at greater risk of wildlife attacks in Nepal? A. They often enter forests. B. They are weaker than men. C. They lack basic survival skills. D. They grow up near national parks. 6. What can be inferred about Nepal’s conservation? A. It brings both success and new challenges. B. It focuses mainly on protecting wild animals. C. It has led to a drop of local human population. D. They have fully solved human-wildlife conflict. 7. What is Paudel’s attitude toward human-wildlife coexistence? A. Critical and worried. B. Hopeful and positive. C. Objective and neutral. D. Doubtful and pessimistic. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了尼泊尔随着动物保护取得成效，野生动物数量增长，人兽冲突问题日益凸显，Doma Paudel经历过野生动物带来的家庭悲剧后，创立基金、开展讲习班，推动当地民众与野生动物安全共存。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Fortunately, a hotel manager safely guides the rhino away using a bright flashlight, ending the close encounter without harm.(幸运的是，一位酒店经理用强光手电筒将犀牛安全引开，这场近距离接触没有造成任何伤害。)”可知，酒店经理使用手电筒是为了安全地把这头动物引开。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“In traditional Nepali society, women frequently enter forests for wood and food, making them more likely to be attacked by wild animals.(在尼泊尔传统社会中，妇女经常进入森林获取木柴和食物，这使她们更容易遭到野生动物袭击。)”可知，在尼泊尔女性遭受野生动物袭击的风险更高是因为她们经常进入森林。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“As Nepal’s conservation efforts succeed, wildlife populations are increasing. For example, the number of rhinos has grown from about 100 in the 1970s to nearly 700 today. While this is a great achievement, it also means more frequent encounters between animals and people, leading to fear and loss of livelihoods.(随着尼泊尔的保护工作取得成效，野生动物种群数量正在不断增加。例如，犀牛的数量已从20世纪70年代的约100头增长到如今的近700头。尽管这是一项重大成就，但这也意味着人与动物相遇的频次变得更高，进而引发恐慌，并造成生计损失。)”可推知，尼泊尔的动物保护既取得了成功，也带来了新的挑战。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“Despite these hardships, Paudel remains hopeful. She believes that with proper education and community effort, people and wildlife can share the same space.(尽管面临这些困境，Paudel仍然满怀希望。她相信，通过合理的教育以及社区共同努力，人类与野生动物可以共享同一片生存空间。)”可推知，Paudel对于人与野生动物共存持满怀希望、积极的态度。 C Most metals change when they are exposed to air. Iron turns into rust (铁锈), and copper develops a green surface over time. Gold, however, seems different. It can remain bright and nearly unchanged for thousands of years. A recent study has revealed a reason why gold is so resistant to damage. Scientists found that the surface atoms of gold can change their positions, forming a special structure that makes the surface less likely to react with oxygen. This change prevents oxidation, the process that causes many metals to lose their original appearance. Without this natural protection, gold would start to react with oxygen within seconds after being exposed to air. To understand this process, researchers studied how easily gold surfaces could break oxygen molecules apart. Oxygen in the air usually exists as pairs of oxygen atoms. For oxidation to happen, these pairs must first be separated, and then the oxygen atoms can combine with the metal and form a new layer on its surface. The researchers focused on two common arrangements of gold atoms. When a new gold surface appears, such as after the metal is cut, the atoms can move and form a different pattern. One pattern is square-shaped, while the other is closer to a hexagonal(六边形的)shape. Using computer calculations, the scientists found that the square pattern allows gold to react with oxygen more easily. The hexagonal pattern, however, made this process much harder because the atoms would need to move back into their original positions first. The study also showed that even if gold does react with oxygen under special conditions, it would only create a very thin layer. The discovery helps scientists better understand how the surfaces of metals work and may improve the design of materials used to speed up chemical reactions. According to the researchers, the difference caused by such small changes in atomic positions was surprising. After the atoms rearrange themselves, gold’s reaction with oxygen can become hundreds of millions of times slower. This explains why gold can keep its beauty while many other metals gradually change. 8. What helps prevent gold from oxidizing? A. A thick layer of oxygen. B. Its bright and shiny color. C. The separation of oxygen pairs. D. Its surface atoms’ rearrangement. 9. What is special about the hexagonal pattern according to the text? A. It slows down oxidation. B. It allows gold to react easily. C. It forms a thick surface layer. D. It separates oxygen pairs quickly. 10. What is a possible application of this study? A. Finding more gold in nature. B. Changing the color of metals. C. Stopping iron from rusting forever. D. Designing better chemical materials. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. Why Metals Rust in the Air B. Why Gold Stays Shiny for So Long C. How to Protect Metals from Oxygen D. How Metals React When Exposed to Air 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了黄金历经千年依旧光亮的原因，科学家研究发现黄金表面原子可以重新排列，形成特殊结构，极大减缓黄金与氧气的反应速度，解释了黄金不易被氧化的奥秘，这项研究也有助于优化化学材料的设计。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Scientists found that the surface atoms of gold can change their positions, forming a special structure that makes the surface less likely to react with oxygen.(科学家发现，金的表面原子可以改变自身位置，形成一种特殊结构，使得金表面更不易与氧气发生反应。)”可知，黄金表面原子的重新排列能够防止黄金氧化。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The hexagonal pattern, however, made this process much harder because the atoms would need to move back into their original positions first.(然而六边形排布让该过程变得十分困难，因为原子需要先移动回到原本的位置。)”以及第六段中的“After the atoms rearrange themselves, gold’s reaction with oxygen can become hundreds of millions of times slower.(原子重新排列之后，黄金和氧气的反应会变慢数亿倍。)”可知，六边形原子排布会阻碍氧化发生，减缓氧化过程。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“The discovery helps scientists better understand how the surfaces of metals work and may improve the design of materials used to speed up chemical reactions.(这一发现帮助科学家更好理解金属表面的工作机制，并且或许可以改进用于加速化学反应的材料的设计。)”可知，该研究可以用于设计性能更优良的化学材料。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。第一段中的“It can remain bright and nearly unchanged for thousands of years. A recent study has revealed a reason why gold is so resistant to damage.(它可以数千年保持光亮，几乎不发生改变。最近一项研究揭示了黄金抗损耗的原因。)”是主旨句，全文围绕黄金长久保持光亮的科学原理展开。B项表示“黄金为何可以长时间保持光亮”，适合作为本文的标题。 D Today’s teachers face a tough situation with generative AI. New tools are appearing rapidly, from personalized tutors for students to lesson planners and graders for teachers. Schools are traditionally slow to adapt to change, which makes such rapid-fire developments especially destabilizing. This AI wave hits when teachers are already struggling. They lack time and resources while facing high expectations for both academic results and students’ emotional growth. Many are exhausted and leaving the profession. This matters because teacher quality is the top factor in student success, especially for disadvantaged kids. How teachers use AI could decide whether it narrows or widens existing fairness gaps in education. Research on public school teachers shows mixed feelings about AI. Interviews with 22 teachers in a diverse U. S. school district reveal both hope and worry. Many appreciate AI as a “thought partner.” Creating lesson plans with AI saves time and reduces stress. One teacher noted it improved work-life balance and provided support when feeling isolated. However, not all teachers feel ready. A major problem is the lack of training and planning time. Learning a new tool takes effort, and many schools don’t offer enough professional support. Studies show that schools with fewer resources are less able to help teachers use new tech effectively. As a result, well-funded schools can better support their staff, which often makes educational inequalities worse. Teachers also emphasized that AI cannot replace the human connection in education. A machine can provide information, but many students still need teachers’ guidance, encouragement, and communication to truly learn. A good teacher does more than share knowledge; he or she builds relationships with students. All in all, teachers are crucial in determining how and whether AI, like all new technologies, is used to support their teaching and student learning. That’s why we believe the practices established during this current period of rapid AI development and adoption will profoundly influence whether this technology creates a fairer education system or makes existing differences even greater. 12. What does the underlined word “destabilizing” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Causing disorder and loss of balance. B. Making teaching more challenging now. C. Giving teachers extra work and pressure. D. Speeding up the process of school change. 13. What matters most to students’ success according to the text? A. Students’ effort. B. Teacher quality. C. School resources. D. Advanced AI tools. 14. What is the author’s main concern regarding the AI wave in education? A. It will eventually replace human teachers. B. It might weaken the teacher-student relationship. C. It reduces students’ emotional growth. D. It may widen existing educational inequalities. 15. What determines whether AI narrows the fairness gap? A. The financial support schools can offer. B. The speed of AI technology development. C. How teachers integrate AI into their work. D. The academic pressure students are facing. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要探讨了生成式人工智能在教育领域的快速发展对教师的冲击，及其可能加剧或缩小教育公平差距的影响。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段中“New tools are appearing rapidly, from personalized tutors for students to lesson planners and graders for teachers. Schools are traditionally slow to adapt to change, which makes such rapid-fire developments especially destabilizing.(新工具正在快速涌现，包括面向学生的个性化辅导工具，以及面向教师的备课工具和评分工具。学校传统上适应变化很慢，这使得这种快速的发展尤其destabilizing)”可知，学校适应变化慢，而AI工具却快速涌现，这种反差会打破原有的稳定状态。destabilizing，意为“使不稳定”，即造成混乱和失衡。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“This matters because teacher quality is the top factor in student success, especially for disadvantaged kids.(这很重要，因为教师质量是学生成功的最关键因素，尤其是对弱势儿童而言)”可知，对学生的成功影响最大的是教师质量。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“How teachers use AI could decide whether it narrows or widens existing fairness gaps in education.(教师如何使用AI可能决定它是缩小还是扩大教育中现有的公平差距)”以及最后一段“That’s why we believe the practices established during this current period of rapid AI development and adoption will profoundly influence whether this technology creates a fairer education system or makes existing differences even greater.(这就是为什么我们认为，在当前人工智能快速发展和采用的时期建立的实践将深刻影响这项技术是创造一个更公平的教育体系，还是使现有的差异更大)”可知，作者主要关注AI浪潮可能会扩大现有的教育不平等。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“All in all, teachers are crucial in determining how and whether AI, like all new technologies, is used to support their teaching and student learning. That’s why we believe the practices established during this current period of rapid AI development and adoption will profoundly influence whether this technology creates a fairer education system or makes existing differences even greater.(总而言之，在决定如何以及是否使用人工智能这类新技术来辅助自身教学和学生学习的问题上，教师起着关键作用。这就是为什么我们认为，在当前人工智能快速发展和采用的时期建立的实践将深刻影响这项技术是创造一个更公平的教育体系，还是使现有的差异更大)”可知，决定AI能否缩小公平差距的关键在于教师如何将AI融入他们的工作。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 As summer travel begins, many people are preparing for trips in places where temperatures may be unusually high. ____16____ It can lead to heat exhaustion and even heat stroke.

Leaves and broken branches covered the yard, and several flower pots had been knocked over. It was clear that a powerful hurricane had swept through the neighborhood while we were away. Then my younger sister, Lily, suddenly remembered the rabbits. Before leaving, we had carefully prepared everything for them. Their food box was filled with enough rabbit food, fresh hay was placed in their small wooden house, and clean water was ready in a large container. Dad had checked the roof and fence carefully, believing they would stay safe. We had also asked our neighbor Mrs. Green to look after them if necessary. Lily and I hurried to the corner of the garden where we had built a small wooden house for them before the vacation. We had spent several weekends working on it together. We painted it white and made it comfortable, believing it would be the perfect home for Bobby and Fluffy. However, when we reached the garden, we froze in disbelief. The lovely little house had completely collapsed. What remained was only a pile of broken boards and scattered pieces of wood. “Where are Bobby and Fluffy?” Lily whispered anxiously, eyes filled with tears. We searched everywhere, calling their names again and again. We looked behind bushes, under trees, and even inside the damaged bushes, but there was no sign of them. Just as we were about to lose hope, Mrs. Green walked over with a smile. “I’ve been waiting for you to come back,” she said. Seeing our worried faces, she explained, “The hurricane was much stronger than expected. When I noticed the rabbit house beginning to fall apart, I knew I had to act immediately.” She paused for a moment before continuing, “I hope you don’t mind, but I took Bobby and Fluffy to my garage before the wind became too dangerous.” Hearing that, Lily and I both let out a long sigh of relief. Mrs. Green smiled, turned around, and said, “Come with me.” 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。 Following Mrs. Green, we hurried toward her garage. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next morning, we started building a new house for the rabbits. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Following Mrs. Green, we hurried toward her garage. As soon as the door opened, we saw Bobby and Fluffy sitting peacefully in a warm corner, enjoying fresh food. They looked healthy and safe. My sister rushed over and gently picked one up with a big smile on her face. We thanked Mrs. Green again and again for helping us. She simply smiled and said that anyone would have done the same. Looking at the rabbits, we felt not only relieved but also deeply touched by her kindness. The next morning, we started building a new house for the rabbits. Instead of simply repairing the old house, we decided to build a stronger one. Soon our neighbors joined us. Some brought wood, while others offered tools and useful advice. Even the children helped paint the walls. A few days later, a beautiful new rabbit house stood in the garden. It was stronger, safer and more comfortable than before. Looking at the rabbits playing happily inside, I realized that kindness and teamwork can help people overcome any storm and create something even better. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了一家人度假归来，发现飓风摧毁了自家兔子小屋，两只兔子不知所踪，姐妹二人焦急寻找，最终邻居格林太太告知早已将兔子转移到自家车库妥善照顾，化解危机的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，本段可描写作者和妹妹见到安然无恙的兔子的场景，以及二人对格林太太的感激、内心的感动与释然。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，本段可描写众人齐心协力搭建更坚固的兔子小屋的过程，以及作者从中收获的感悟。 2.续写线索：见到兔子——心怀感激——开始建新兔房——邻里相助——建成新兔房——收获感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①看见：see/spot ②修建：build/construct ③帮助：help/assist 情绪类 ①宽慰的：relieved/soothed ②感动的：touched/moved 【点睛】[高分句型1] As soon as the door opened, we saw Bobby and Fluffy sitting peacefully in a warm corner, enjoying fresh food.

B In the Nepali village of Sauraha, tourists eagerly photograph a wild Indian rhinoceros(犀牛)grazing near the street. As the animal wanders into the village, locals warn visitors to keep their distance. When it approaches a cyclist, the crowd gasps. Fortunately, a hotel manager safely guides the rhino away using a bright flashlight, ending the close encounter without harm. However, such incidents highlight a growing challenge: human-wildlife conflict. As Nepal’s conservation efforts succeed, wildlife populations are increasing. For example, the number of rhinos has grown from about 100 in the 1970s to nearly 700 today. While this is a great achievement, it also means more frequent encounters between animals and people, leading to fear and loss of livelihoods. Doma Paudel, Nepal’s first female trail guide, understands this struggle deeply. Growing up near a national park, she often watched animals from a watchtower to protect her family’s crops. Tragically, her mother was killed by a rhino in 2004 while gathering firewood. In traditional Nepali society, women frequently enter forests for wood and food, making them more likely to be attacked by wild animals. In 2024 alone, eight of the eleven people killed by large animals were victims of rhino attacks. To address this, Paudel founded the Wildlife Victim Fund and organized workshops for young environmentalists. They develop strategies to teach communities, especially women and children, how to coexist safely with large wild animals. Farmers like Balkrishna Bhattarai have noticed rhinos entering their fields more often. Recently, a rhino killed his 22-year-old son who tried to chase it away from their crops. In another case, Juna Bote lost her husband to a tiger while he was fishing with friends. Now, she must raise five children alone and fears entering the forest, yet she has no choice but to gather firewood to survive. Despite these hardships, Paudel remains hopeful. She believes that with proper education and community effort, people and wildlife can share the same space. “If we love nature, nature will love us back,” she says, emphasizing that coexistence is essential for both human safety and wildlife conservation. 4. Why did the hotel manager use a flashlight? A. To take photos of the rhino. B. To scare the rhino back to forest. C. To safely direct the animal away. D. To warn tourists to keep distance. 5. Why are women often at greater risk of wildlife attacks in Nepal? A. They often enter forests. B. They are weaker than men. C. They lack basic survival skills. D. They grow up near national parks. 6. What can be inferred about Nepal’s conservation? A. It brings both success and new challenges. B. It focuses mainly on protecting wild animals. C. It has led to a drop of local human population. D. They have fully solved human-wildlife conflict. 7. What is Paudel’s attitude toward human-wildlife coexistence? A. Critical and worried. B. Hopeful and positive. C. Objective and neutral. D. Doubtful and pessimistic. C Most metals change when they are exposed to air. Iron turns into rust (铁锈), and copper develops a green surface over time. Gold, however, seems different. It can remain bright and nearly unchanged for thousands of years. A recent study has revealed a reason why gold is so resistant to damage. Scientists found that the surface atoms of gold can change their positions, forming a special structure that makes the surface less likely to react with oxygen. This change prevents oxidation, the process that causes many metals to lose their original appearance. Without this natural protection, gold would start to react with oxygen within seconds after being exposed to air. To understand this process, researchers studied how easily gold surfaces could break oxygen molecules apart. Oxygen in the air usually exists as pairs of oxygen atoms. For oxidation to happen, these pairs must first be separated, and then the oxygen atoms can combine with the metal and form a new layer on its surface. The researchers focused on two common arrangements of gold atoms. When a new gold surface appears, such as after the metal is cut, the atoms can move and form a different pattern. One pattern is square-shaped, while the other is closer to a hexagonal(六边形的)shape. Using computer calculations, the scientists found that the square pattern allows gold to react with oxygen more easily. The hexagonal pattern, however, made this process much harder because the atoms would need to move back into their original positions first. The study also showed that even if gold does react with oxygen under special conditions, it would only create a very thin layer. The discovery helps scientists better understand how the surfaces of metals work and may improve the design of materials used to speed up chemical reactions. According to the researchers, the difference caused by such small changes in atomic positions was surprising. After the atoms rearrange themselves, gold’s reaction with oxygen can become hundreds of millions of times slower. This explains why gold can keep its beauty while many other metals gradually change. 8. What helps prevent gold from oxidizing? A. A thick layer of oxygen. B. Its bright and shiny color. C. The separation of oxygen pairs. D. Its surface atoms’ rearrangement. 9. What is special about the hexagonal pattern according to the text? A. It slows down oxidation. B. It allows gold to react easily. C. It forms a thick surface layer. D. It separates oxygen pairs quickly. 10. What is a possible application of this study? A. Finding more gold in nature. B. Changing the color of metals. C. Stopping iron from rusting forever. D. Designing better chemical materials. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. Why Metals Rust in the Air B. Why Gold Stays Shiny for So Long C. How to Protect Metals from Oxygen D. How Metals React When Exposed to Air D Today’s teachers face a tough situation with generative AI. New tools are appearing rapidly, from personalized tutors for students to lesson planners and graders for teachers. Schools are traditionally slow to adapt to change, which makes such rapid-fire developments especially destabilizing. This AI wave hits when teachers are already struggling. They lack time and resources while facing high expectations for both academic results and students’ emotional growth. Many are exhausted and leaving the profession. This matters because teacher quality is the top factor in student success, especially for disadvantaged kids. How teachers use AI could decide whether it narrows or widens existing fairness gaps in education. Research on public school teachers shows mixed feelings about AI. Interviews with 22 teachers in a diverse U. S. school district reveal both hope and worry. Many appreciate AI as a “thought partner.” Creating lesson plans with AI saves time and reduces stress. One teacher noted it improved work-life balance and provided support when feeling isolated. However, not all teachers feel ready. A major problem is the lack of training and planning time. Learning a new tool takes effort, and many schools don’t offer enough professional support. Studies show that schools with fewer resources are less able to help teachers use new tech effectively. As a result, well-funded schools can better support their staff, which often makes educational inequalities worse. Teachers also emphasized that AI cannot replace the human connection in education. A machine can provide information, but many students still need teachers’ guidance, encouragement, and communication to truly learn. A good teacher does more than share knowledge; he or she builds relationships with students. All in all, teachers are crucial in determining how and whether AI, like all new technologies, is used to support their teaching and student learning. That’s why we believe the practices established during this current period of rapid AI development and adoption will profoundly influence whether this technology creates a fairer education system or makes existing differences even greater. 12. What does the underlined word “destabilizing” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Causing disorder and loss of balance. B. Making teaching more challenging now. C. Giving teachers extra work and pressure. D. Speeding up the process of school change. 13. What matters most to students’ success according to the text? A. Students’ effort. B. Teacher quality. C. School resources. D. Advanced AI tools. 14. What is the author’s main concern regarding the AI wave in education? A. It will eventually replace human teachers. B.

Leaves and broken branches covered the yard, and several flower pots had been knocked over. It was clear that a powerful hurricane had swept through the neighborhood while we were away. Then my younger sister, Lily, suddenly remembered the rabbits. Before leaving, we had carefully prepared everything for them. Their food box was filled with enough rabbit food, fresh hay was placed in their small wooden house, and clean water was ready in a large container. Dad had checked the roof and fence carefully, believing they would stay safe. We had also asked our neighbor Mrs. Green to look after them if necessary. Lily and I hurried to the corner of the garden where we had built a small wooden house for them before the vacation. We had spent several weekends working on it together. We painted it white and made it comfortable, believing it would be the perfect home for Bobby and Fluffy. However, when we reached the garden, we froze in disbelief. The lovely little house had completely collapsed. What remained was only a pile of broken boards and scattered pieces of wood. “Where are Bobby and Fluffy?” Lily whispered anxiously, eyes filled with tears. We searched everywhere, calling their names again and again. We looked behind bushes, under trees, and even inside the damaged bushes, but there was no sign of them. Just as we were about to lose hope, Mrs. Green walked over with a smile. “I’ve been waiting for you to come back,” she said. Seeing our worried faces, she explained, “The hurricane was much stronger than expected. When I noticed the rabbit house beginning to fall apart, I knew I had to act immediately.” She paused for a moment before continuing, “I hope you don’t mind, but I took Bobby and Fluffy to my garage before the wind became too dangerous.” Hearing that, Lily and I both let out a long sigh of relief. Mrs. Green smiled, turned around, and said, “Come with me.” 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。 Following Mrs. Green, we hurried toward her garage. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next morning, we started building a new house for the rabbits. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
