B Catarina Rosa Morais Chato had heart surgery when she was just 6 months old to repair a hole in her heart. The operation was effective in closing the hole, but four years later, she developed pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), a type of high blood pressure in the heart and lungs that can be linked with congenital (先天的) heart disease — and for which there is no cure. Her symptoms included coughing, exhaustion, chest pain and feeling faint, especially when climbing stairs. She was told to stop all forms of exercise, since physical activity would be too draining on her body. “My dream of dancing died that day,” she says, adding that she felt lonely when she couldn’t join her friends on the sports field. Following her diagnosis (诊断), she quickly began treatment to help manage her symptoms, which enabled her to live a fairly normal life. That includes working as a personal care assistant, helping nurses in the same hospital where she was born. At first, she found the long hours on her feet very tiring. But thanks to a flexible schedule, as well as learning to go at her own pace, “I exceed (超出) my expectations,” she says. She’s also found love: “My fiance, Tiago, has always supported me. He comes with me to cardiology visits, reminds me to take my medication and does things like carry the shopping bag for me.” Reflecting on the challenges she has overcome, Chato feels pride. “Despite all the sad times I have been through, I am alive. I work, drive, travel, and do housekeeping, I get to watch my nephews grow up,” she says. “25 years ago there was not as much hope for people with PAH. My advice to anyone is: Be happy, enjoy every minute of your life and don’t give up.” 24. What caused Chato to develop PAH? A. The failed operation. B. Her lack of exercise. C. Her heart condition. D. The lung infection. 25. Why did Chato give up her dream? A. She was unwilling to see others. B. Her interest in dancing was reduced. C. She had to receive treatment. D. Her physical state worsened. 26. How did Chato manage her work? A. By getting extra breaks. B. By changing work pace. C. By asking others for help. D. By showing more patience. 27. Which words can best describe Chato? A. Courageous and tough. B. Energetic and talkative. C. Considerate and gifted. D. Humorous and modest. C Up to one quarter of the world’s population use chopsticks as their main eating tool. Called kuaizi in Chinese, chopsticks were developed in China about 5,000 years ago. Often made of wood, chopsticks allow users to pick up pieces of food by holding together and releasing (松开) the sticks with the thumb (拇指) and first three fingers. Before the invention of chopsticks, the Chinese used only their hands to eat. One reason why chopsticks were invented is that eating with one’s hands allowed some people to take more food than others. This was considered rude, so using chopsticks, which limited the amount of food that could be taken at one time, was thought to be a more polite practice. Another one was about the great Chinese philosopher Confucius, who was a vegetarian. He objected to the use of knives at the table, feeling that they reminded eaters of the slaughterhouse (屠宰场), so he preferred chopsticks. At first, chopsticks were used only by nobles (贵族). Later on, during the Western Han Dynasty, which began in 202 BC, commoners (平民) began to use chopsticks as well. At that time, people used chopsticks only to eat side dishes; spoons were used for rice and for soups. During the Northern Song Dynasty, which lasted from AD 960 to 1127, noodles became a popular dish. It is very difficult to eat noodles with a spoon, so chopsticks were used more often. Today, chopsticks are the main eating tool in China, Japan, and Vietnam; and people from countries all over the world commonly use this tool while eating Asian dishes. 28. What is the second paragraph mainly about? A. The popularity of chopsticks. B. The process of making chopsticks. C. The method of using chopsticks. D. The reasons for inventing chopsticks. 29. What does the underlined phrase “objected to” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Led to. B. Went against. C. Believed in. D. Agreed with. 30. Who first began to use chopsticks? A. Philosophers. B. Common people. C. Nobles. D. Vegetarians. 31. When did eating with chopsticks become common? A. After noodles became popular. B. Just before forks came into use. C. During the Western Han Dynasty. D. Before the Northern Song Dynasty. D Each year, people are becoming more and more worried about the future of our planet. People are now starting to agree — global warming will certainly make a difference to the world’s weather. While some parts of the world may have more floods, some other parts might have long periods of dry weather. All of this will have a serious influence on the world’s agriculture (农业). And that could make it difficult for us to get enough food to survive. This explains the idea behind the Svalbard Global Seed Vault (种子库). The Seed Vault is built into a mountain on an island near the North Pole (北极). The purpose is to protect the world’s agriculture from future disasters. This may not just be a question of global warming. Perhaps there will be a major nuclear disaster or war one day. These things won’t be a problem for Svalbard. Some experts think that the population of the earth will probably go up by 50% in the next 40 years. Because of climate change, it probably won’t be easy for some plants to survive. Having many different types of plants will be necessary for agriculture to adapt to changes in the environment. In the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, there is space for 4.5 million types of seed. At the moment there are over 770,000 different types there. Any country in the world can leave seeds in Svalbard without paying. The seeds of some plants, such as peas, only survive for 20 to 30 years. But others will last for hundreds of years. In 2028, the Svalbard Vault will celebrate its 20th birthday. 200 years in the future, it’s possible that the ice caps will disappear. Even if this happens, Svalbard will be safe. That’s because it is on a mountain and will be above the sea level. And because it is so close to the North Pole, even if their electricity stops working, the ice will keep a cool temperature of -3.5℃ to keep the seeds in good condition. But the best protection is the fact that it is in such a faraway place. After all, maybe one day this will be the most important building in the whole world. 32. What does the first paragraph mainly introduce? A. The role of agriculture. B. The reason for global warming. C. The future problems we’ll face. D. The planet where we’ll live in the future. 33. What is the Seed Vault mainly used for? A. Storing plant seeds. B. Growing more plants. C. Discovering new plants. D. Providing humans with food. 34. What do we know about the Seed Vault? A. It needs more space. B. It provides service for free. C. It is built above a mountain. D. It will close in 200 years. 35. If there is an electrical problem at the Seed Vault, what will happen to the seeds? A. They will be sent away. B. They will still be safe. C. They will be of no use. D. They will be planted at once. 第二节：七选五阅读(共5小题，每小题2.5分，共12.5分) How to deal with your homework Write it down. ____36____ Always be sure to write down all the homework so you won’t forget anything.

I’ve been saving up for the past month and I’m going to buy my mother a lipstick she loves,” Cherry, my friend, said on the way home from school. “See you tomorrow!” We waved goodbye as she went into a gift shop. But her excitement reminded me that I hadn’t prepared anything special for my mother yet. I continued walking along the road, carefully thinking about what gift I should choose. I had planned to buy her some flowers and chocolates. Now, compared with my friend’s lipstick, they seemed to be too simple. “Maybe I should go to the gift shop, too.” I told myself. I pushed open the door to a nearby shop and tried to find a perfect gift. I picked up a lipstick but immediately put it back after seeing its price. I could never afford that! Then I walked into another shop and saw a very lovely cup. “It’d be a wonderful gift and Mum would love it!” I thought. I picked it up and turned it over to see the price, hoping it was not too expensive. Once again, I couldn’t afford it. Feeling sad, I continued to wander around the shops until darkness fell outside. Eventually, I gave up and went home. When I opened the door, I was greeted by the good smell from the kitchen. “Mum, I am home!” I pretended to be cheerful. Mom turned around and kissed me lightly on the cheeks, saying, “Dinner is almost ready. Today, I happened to be able to come home a little bit earlier. I have made some of the snacks you loved when you were a kid. I really missed the happy time we spent together!” 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。 Just then and there, I had a good idea. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Early in the morning, I was woken up by the gentle knocks on my door. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 兰州五十一中2024~2025年度第二学期期中考试试卷 高一英语 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，请先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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。每段对话仅读一遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What does the woman ask the man to do?

That’s what I did. M: What helpful advice. Thanks for your coming to our studio tonight. 听下面一段独白，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 18.

C 20. B 【解析】 【原文】Good morning, everyone. Before our class, I’d like to share a story I’ve read recently. It’s about a couple named Scott and Shayna, who became the third and fourth deaf people in the world to get to the top of Mount Everest. For Scott, his passion for mountain climbing began when some of his friends tried to take climbing lessons near Mount Rainier. When he arrived for the lessons, he was told to pay a lot of money, so he refused. He turned to the videos on YouTube, and he tried to learn as much as he could while watching them online. It was a very long, hard journey. There were a lot of different barriers they had to go through to get to Everest. When they reached the top, they were really proud of themselves.

The operation was effective in closing the hole, but four years later, she developed pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), a type of high blood pressure in the heart and lungs that can be linked with congenital (先天的) heart disease — and for which there is no cure. Her symptoms included coughing, exhaustion, chest pain and feeling faint, especially when climbing stairs. She was told to stop all forms of exercise, since physical activity would be too draining on her body. “My dream of dancing died that day,” she says, adding that she felt lonely when she couldn’t join her friends on the sports field. Following her diagnosis (诊断), she quickly began treatment to help manage her symptoms, which enabled her to live a fairly normal life. That includes working as a personal care assistant, helping nurses in the same hospital where she was born. At first, she found the long hours on her feet very tiring. But thanks to a flexible schedule, as well as learning to go at her own pace, “I exceed (超出) my expectations,” she says. She’s also found love: “My fiance, Tiago, has always supported me. He comes with me to cardiology visits, reminds me to take my medication and does things like carry the shopping bag for me.” Reflecting on the challenges she has overcome, Chato feels pride. “Despite all the sad times I have been through, I am alive. I work, drive, travel, and do housekeeping, I get to watch my nephews grow up,” she says. “25 years ago there was not as much hope for people with PAH. My advice to anyone is: Be happy, enjoy every minute of your life and don’t give up.” 24. What caused Chato to develop PAH? A. The failed operation. B. Her lack of exercise. C. Her heart condition. D. The lung infection. 25. Why did Chato give up her dream? A. She was unwilling to see others. B. Her interest in dancing was reduced. C. She had to receive treatment. D. Her physical state worsened. 26. How did Chato manage her work? A. By getting extra breaks. B. By changing work pace. C. By asking others for help. D. By showing more patience. 27. Which words can best describe Chato? A. Courageous and tough. B. Energetic and talkative. C. Considerate and gifted. D. Humorous and modest. 【答案】24. C 25. D 26. B 27. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了Catarina Rosa Morais Chato患有先天性心脏病后又患PAH，经治疗坚持工作，她以自身经历鼓励人们热爱生活、永不放弃的事迹。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“she developed pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), a type of high blood pressure in the heart and lungs that can be linked with congenital (先天的) heart disease(她患上了肺动脉高压（PAH），这是一种心脏和肺部的高血压，可能与先天性心脏病有关)”可知，Chato患上肺动脉高压可能与先天性心脏病有关，故选C。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Her symptoms included coughing, exhaustion, chest pain and feeling faint, especially when climbing stairs. She was told to stop all forms of exercise, since physical activity would be too draining on her body. ‘My dream of dancing died that day,’ she says(她的症状包括咳嗽、疲惫、胸痛和头晕，尤其是在爬楼梯的时候。她被告知要停止一切形式的运动，因为体育活动对她的身体太消耗了。‘我的舞蹈梦想在那天破灭了，’她说)”可知，Chato放弃她的梦想是因为身体状况恶化，故选D。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“At first, she found the long hours on her feet very tiring. But thanks to a flexible schedule, as well as learning to go at her own pace, ‘I exceed (超出) my expectations,’ she says.(起初，她觉得长时间站着很累。但多亏了灵活的时间安排，以及学着按照自己的节奏去做，‘我超出了自己的预期，’她说)”可知，Chato是通过改变工作节奏来胜任自己的工作的，故选B。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Catarina Rosa Morais Chato had heart surgery when she was just 6 months old to repair a hole in her heart. The operation was effective in closing the hole, but four years later, she developed pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH)(Catarina Rosa Morais Chato在6个月大的时候做了心脏手术来修复心脏上的一个洞。手术有效地堵住了这个洞，但四年后，她患上了肺动脉高压（PAH）)”、第三段中“Following her diagnosis (诊断), she quickly began treatment to help manage her symptoms, which enabled her to live a fairly normal life. That includes working as a personal care assistant, helping nurses in the same hospital where she was born.(在她的诊断之后，她很快开始治疗，以帮助控制她的症状，这使她能够过着相当正常的生活。这包括在她出生的同一家医院担任个人护理助理，帮助护士)”和最后一段中“I work, drive, travel, and do housekeeping(我工作，开车，旅行，做家务)”可知，Chato身患顽疾，但她克服挑战正常生活和工作，故她勇敢且坚强，故选A。 C Up to one quarter of the world’s population use chopsticks as their main eating tool. Called kuaizi in Chinese, chopsticks were developed in China about 5,000 years ago. Often made of wood, chopsticks allow users to pick up pieces of food by holding together and releasing (松开) the sticks with the thumb (拇指) and first three fingers. Before the invention of chopsticks, the Chinese used only their hands to eat. One reason why chopsticks were invented is that eating with one’s hands allowed some people to take more food than others. This was considered rude, so using chopsticks, which limited the amount of food that could be taken at one time, was thought to be a more polite practice. Another one was about the great Chinese philosopher Confucius, who was a vegetarian. He objected to the use of knives at the table, feeling that they reminded eaters of the slaughterhouse (屠宰场), so he preferred chopsticks. At first, chopsticks were used only by nobles (贵族). Later on, during the Western Han Dynasty, which began in 202 BC, commoners (平民) began to use chopsticks as well. At that time, people used chopsticks only to eat side dishes; spoons were used for rice and for soups. During the Northern Song Dynasty, which lasted from AD 960 to 1127, noodles became a popular dish. It is very difficult to eat noodles with a spoon, so chopsticks were used more often. Today, chopsticks are the main eating tool in China, Japan, and Vietnam; and people from countries all over the world commonly use this tool while eating Asian dishes. 28. What is the second paragraph mainly about? A. The popularity of chopsticks. B. The process of making chopsticks. C. The method of using chopsticks. D. The reasons for inventing chopsticks. 29. What does the underlined phrase “objected to” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Led to. B. Went against. C. Believed in. D. Agreed with. 30. Who first began to use chopsticks? A. Philosophers. B. Common people. C. Nobles. D. Vegetarians. 31. When did eating with chopsticks become common? A. After noodles became popular. B. Just before forks came into use. C. During the Western Han Dynasty. D. Before the Northern Song Dynasty. 【答案】28. D 29. B 30. C 31. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章详细介绍了筷子的历史、用途和演变过程。 【28题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Before the invention of chopsticks, the Chinese used only their hands to eat. One reason why chopsticks were invented is that eating with one’s hands allowed some people to take more food than others. This was considered rude, so using chopsticks, which limited the amount of food that could be taken at one time, was thought to be a more polite practice. Another one was about the great Chinese philosopher Confucius, who was a vegetarian. He objected to the use of knives at the table, feeling that they reminded eaters of the slaughterhouse (屠宰场), so he preferred chopsticks.(在筷子发明之前，中国人只用手吃饭。发明筷子的一个原因是用手吃饭可以让一些人比其他人吃更多的食物。这被认为是粗鲁的，所以使用筷子被认为是一种更礼貌的做法，因为它限制了一次可以吃的食物的数量。另一个故事是关于伟大的中国哲学家孔子的，他是一个素食主义者。他反对在餐桌上使用刀子，觉得这会让人想起屠宰场，所以他更喜欢用筷子)”可知，本段主要讲述了发明筷子的原因。故选D项。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据后文“feeling that they reminded eaters of the slaughterhouse (屠宰场), so he preferred chopsticks(觉得这会让人想起屠宰场，所以他更喜欢用筷子)”可知，孔子觉得使用刀子吃饭，让人想起屠宰场，这是残忍，所以他反对使用刀子，推知objected to是“反对”之意，和B项意思相近。故选B项。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“At first, chopsticks were used only by nobles (贵族).(起初，只有贵族才使用筷子)”可知，贵族第一个开始使用筷子。故选C项。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“During the Northern Song Dynasty, which lasted from AD 960 to 1127, noodles became a popular dish. It is very diffcult to eat noodles with a spoon, so chopsticks were used more often.(在北宋时期(公元960年至1127年)，面条成为一种受欢迎的食物。用勺子吃面条是非常困难的，所以人们更多地使用筷子)”可知，面条流行之后，用筷子吃饭变得普遍了。故选A项。 D Each year, people are becoming more and more worried about the future of our planet. People are now starting to agree — global warming will certainly make a difference to the world’s weather. While some parts of the world may have more floods, some other parts might have long periods of dry weather. All of this will have a serious influence on the world’s agriculture (农业). And that could make it difficult for us to get enough food to survive. This explains the idea behind the Svalbard Global Seed Vault (种子库). The Seed Vault is built into a mountain on an island near the North Pole (北极). The purpose is to protect the world’s agriculture from future disasters. This may not just be a question of global warming. Perhaps there will be a major nuclear disaster or war one day. These things won’t be a problem for Svalbard. Some experts think that the population of the earth will probably go up by 50% in the next 40 years. Because of climate change, it probably won’t be easy for some plants to survive. Having many different types of plants will be necessary for agriculture to adapt to changes in the environment. In the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, there is space for 4.5 million types of seed. At the moment there are over 770,000 different types there. Any country in the world can leave seeds in Svalbard without paying. The seeds of some plants, such as peas, only survive for 20 to 30 years. But others will last for hundreds of years. In 2028, the Svalbard Vault will celebrate its 20th birthday. 200 years in the future, it’s possible that the ice caps will disappear. Even if this happens, Svalbard will be safe. That’s because it is on a mountain and will be above the sea level. And because it is so close to the North Pole, even if their electricity stops working, the ice will keep a cool temperature of -3.5℃ to keep the seeds in good condition. But the best protection is the fact that it is in such a faraway place. After all, maybe one day this will be the most important building in the whole world. 32. What does the first paragraph mainly introduce? A. The role of agriculture. B. The reason for global warming. C. The future problems we’ll face. D. The planet where we’ll live in the future. 33. What is the Seed Vault mainly used for? A. Storing plant seeds. B. Growing more plants. C. Discovering new plants. D. Providing humans with food. 34. What do we know about the Seed Vault? A. It needs more space. B. It provides service for free. C. It is built above a mountain. D. It will close in 200 years. 35. If there is an electrical problem at the Seed Vault, what will happen to the seeds? A. They will be sent away. B. They will still be safe. C. They will be of no use. D. They will be planted at once. 【答案】32. C 33. A 34. B 35. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了斯瓦尔巴全球种子库。 【32题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Each year, people are becoming more and more worried about the future of our planet. People are now starting to agree—global warming will certainly make a difference to the world’s weather. While some parts of the world may have more floods, some other parts might have long periods of dry weather. All of this will have a serious influence on the world’s agriculture(农业). And that could make it difficult for us to get enough food to survive. (每年，人们越来越担心我们星球的未来。人们现在开始认同——全球变暖肯定会改变世界的天气。虽然世界上的一些地区可能会有更多的洪水，但其他一些地区可能会有长时间的干旱天气。所有这些都将对世界农业产生严重影响。这可能会使我们难以获得足够的食物来生存。)”可知，本段主要介绍了人类未来可能遇到的问题。故选C。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“This explains the idea behind the Svalbard Global Seed Vault (种子库). The Seed Vault is built into a mountain on an island near the North Pole (北极). The purpose is to protect the world’s agriculture from future disasters. (这就解释了斯瓦尔巴群岛全球种子库背后的想法。种子库建在靠近北极的一个岛上的一座山上。其目的是保护世界农业免受未来灾难的影响。)”以及第三段“In the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, there is space for 4.5 million types of seed. At the moment there are over 770,000 different types there. (在斯瓦尔巴全球种子库中，有450万种种子的空间。目前那里有超过77万种不同的种类。)”可知， 该种子库主要是用来储藏植物种子的。故选A。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段第一句“Any country in the world can leave seeds in Svalbard without paying.(世界上任何一个国家都可以把种子留在斯瓦尔巴群岛而不付钱)”可知，该种子库提供的服务完全免费。故选B。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The Seed Vault is built into a mountain on an island near the North Pole(北极). (种子库建在靠近北极的一个岛上的一座山上。)”和最后一段“And because it is so close to the North Pole, even if their electricity stops working, the ice will keep a cool temperature of -3.5℃ to keep the seeds in good condition. (因为它离北极很近，即使他们的电力停止工作，冰也会保持-3.5℃的低温，使种子保持良好的状态。)”可知，即使有电力问题，种子库中的种子也会安然无恙，因为其修建在北极的大山中。故选B。 第二节：七选五阅读(共5小题，每小题2.5分，共12.5分) How to deal with your homework Write it down. ____36____ Always be sure to write down all the homework so you won’t forget anything.

I’ve been saving up for the past month and I’m going to buy my mother a lipstick she loves,” Cherry, my friend, said on the way home from school. “See you tomorrow!” We waved goodbye as she went into a gift shop. But her excitement reminded me that I hadn’t prepared anything special for my mother yet. I continued walking along the road, carefully thinking about what gift I should choose. I had planned to buy her some flowers and chocolates. Now, compared with my friend’s lipstick, they seemed to be too simple. “Maybe I should go to the gift shop, too.” I told myself. I pushed open the door to a nearby shop and tried to find a perfect gift. I picked up a lipstick but immediately put it back after seeing its price. I could never afford that! Then I walked into another shop and saw a very lovely cup. “It’d be a wonderful gift and Mum would love it!” I thought. I picked it up and turned it over to see the price, hoping it was not too expensive. Once again, I couldn’t afford it. Feeling sad, I continued to wander around the shops until darkness fell outside. Eventually, I gave up and went home. When I opened the door, I was greeted by the good smell from the kitchen. “Mum, I am home!” I pretended to be cheerful. Mom turned around and kissed me lightly on the cheeks, saying, “Dinner is almost ready. Today, I happened to be able to come home a little bit earlier. I have made some of the snacks you loved when you were a kid. I really missed the happy time we spent together!” 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。 Just then and there, I had a good idea. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Early in the morning, I was woken up by the gentle knocks on my door. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Just then and there, I had a good idea. Since there was no time or money for me to buy a gift, I decided to write a letter to express my love to my mother. Having finished the letter, I ran through the album and selected a picture in which Mum and I were having a picnic in a park. After the clock on my bedroom wall struck 11 pm, I went out to the sitting room and put the letter on the table, hoping that she would see it in the morning. Early in the morning, I was woken up by the gentle knocks on my door. I jumped out of bed and opened the door. There stood my mother, holding tightly to her chest the letter and the picture. Even in the darkness, I still could feel her excitement. “I love the letter and the picture! It is the best gift I have ever received!” my mother said. “The picture has reminded me the happy moments we spent together! Thank you, my sweetheart!” 【解析】 【导语】本文以母亲节礼物为线索。朋友Cherry告诉作者第二天就是母亲了，她精心给妈妈挑了一支口红，而这提醒作者还没有为妈妈准备礼物。作者逛了好几家礼品店，发现自己买不起一件像样的礼物。回到家里后作者发现妈妈做了小吃，并且妈妈说怀念过去度过的美好时光，作者突然想到可以给妈妈写一封信，并选了一张和妈妈一起在公园野餐的照片，这让妈妈非常开心。 【详解】1. 续写线索： ①由续写第一段首句“就在那时，我有一个好主意。”可知，第一段可以描写作者为妈妈准备母亲节礼物的情况。 ②由续写第二段首句“一大早，我就被轻轻的敲门声吵醒了。”可知，第二段可以描写妈妈看到母亲节礼物后非常感动和兴奋。 2. 段落续写：作者想到一个好主意——作者决定写封信并准备一张和妈妈的照片——一大早妈妈看到礼物后很激动 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①购买：buy/purchase ②挑选：select/pick ③希望：hope/wish 情绪类 ①兴奋：excitement/thrill ②快乐的：happy/pleasant/delightful 【点睛】【高分句型1】Having finished the letter, I ran through the album and selected a picture in which Mum and I were having a picnic in a park.(使用了现在分词的完成式作状语、“介词+which”引导定语从句) 【高分句型2】There stood my mother, holding tightly to her chest the letter and the picture.

Later, I learned italian at a university. That's interesting. As far as all you know, you stayed in korea two months ago. I wonder if you can speak a little korean.

That's what I did. What helpful advice. Thanks for your coming to our studio tonight. So missing, what languages do you speak besides english? I speak spanish, italian and french fluently.

Before our class, i'd like to share a story i've read recently. It's about a couple named Scott and china who became the third and fourth death people in the world to get to the top of mount everest. For Scott, his passion for mountain climbing began when some of his friends tried to take climbing lessons near mount. When he arrived for the lessons, he was told to pay a lot of money, so he refused. He turned to the videos on youtube, and he tried to learn as much as he could while watching them online. IT was a very long, hard journey. There were a lot of different barriers they had to go through to get to arrest. When they reached the top, they were really proud of themselves. I was moved by their spirits. When there are difficulties, we should face them bravely. We may suffer a lot in senior high school, but we must believe hard work can bring us a bright future.
