About 70 　　　　　　　　 (百分之……) of the Earth’s surface is covered (被……覆盖) by water. 【答案】percent 【解析】句意：地球表面大约70%被水覆盖。句中“百分之……”对应的英文表达为percent，单复数同形，常与数字连用表示百分比。 2. We can buy kinds of drinks in the 　　　　　　　　 (商店). 【答案】store 【解析】句意：在商店里我们可以买各种各样的饮料。商店：store，in the store“在商店里”，固定搭配。故填store。 3. In ancient times, food was 　　　　　　　　 (存储) up for winter. 【答案】stored 【解析】句意：在古代，食物被储存起来以备过冬。 “存储”译为“store”。store up储存，积累。主语food与动词store之间是动宾关系，要用被动语态，结合空前was，可知此次用was done构成一般过去时的被动语态。store的过去分词是stored。故答案为stored。 4. I like to eat bread with h　　　　　　　　 (蜂蜜) for my breakfast. 【答案】honey##oney 【解析】句意：我喜欢早餐吃面包配蜂蜜。介词“with”后需接名词，表示搭配的食物。根据首字母“h”和中文提示“蜂蜜”可知，对应的名词为“honey”。故填honey。 5. Thanks for helping us. We couldn’t finish the task w　　　　　　　　 your help. 【答案】without##ithout 【解析】句意：感谢你们的帮助。没有你们的帮助，我们无法完成这项任务。根据“Thanks for helping us. We couldn’t finish the task…your help.”可知，此处表达的是“没有你们的帮助，我们无法完成这项任务”，without“没有”符合题意。故填without。 6. How about c　　　　　　　　 with your parents face to face? I think you can get along well with them. 【答案】communicating##ommunicating 【解析】句意：和你的父母面对面交流怎么样？我觉得你能和他们相处得很好。communicate with“和……交流”，固定搭配，符合“和父母面对面交流”的语境；根据“How about doing sth.”可知，空处位于介词about之后，使用动名词形式communicating。 7. I　　　　　　　　 that you are an astronaut exploring a new planet. 【答案】Imagine##magine 【解析】句意：想象一下，你是一名宇航员，正在探索一颗新行星。本句是祈使句，以动词原形开头，表达建议或请求。根据首字母及“you are an astronaut exploring a new planet”可知，此处指“想象”自己是一名宇航员，正在探索行星。此处应填Imagine“想象”，符合Imagine that…的结构。 8. We need to p　　　　　　　　 bees because they are very important. 【答案】protect##rotect 【解析】句意：我们需要保护蜜蜂，因为它们非常重要。“they are very important”说明蜜蜂需要受到保护，由“need to”后接动词原形及句意可知，此处填表示“保护”的动词原形protect。 9. 　　　　　　　　 (human) have the ability to think and create amazing things. 【答案】Humans 【解析】句意：人类有能力思考和创造令人惊叹的事物。句中“human”意为“人类”，此处表示泛指人类这一整体，应用复数形式Humans，且位于句首首字母需大写。 10. There are eight 　　　　　　　　 (planet) in the solar system (太阳系). 【答案】planets 【解析】句意：太阳系中有八大行星。planet意为“行星”，名词。根据“There are eight ... in the solar system (太阳系).”可知，eight后跟可数名词复数，planet的复数形式为planets。 11. I still remember how 　　　　　　　　 (disappoint) I was when I failed my maths exam for the first time. 【答案】disappointed 【解析】句意：我仍然记得第一次数学考试不及格时我有多失望。disappoint“使失望”，是动词；分析句子可知，此处修饰人，应用形容词disappointed“感到失望的”。故填disappointed。 12. We learned to know the 　　　　　　　　 (important) of physical work. 【答案】importance 【解析】句意：我们学会了了解体力劳动的重要性。定冠词“the”后应该接名词，important是形容词“重要的”，其名词是importance“重要性”，the importance of 表示“……的重要性”。故填importance。 13. Tom and his friends enjoyed an 　　　　　　　　 (act) movie last night. 【答案】action 【解析】句意：汤姆和他的朋友们昨晚看了一部动作片。act意为“行动”，动词。根据“Tom and his friends enjoyed an ... movie last night.”可知，此处修饰名词movie，表示电影类型，需用名词形式作定语限定电影类别，act的名词形式为action，“action movie”是固定短语，意为“动作片”。 14. With the bridge 　　　　　　　　 (connect) the two cities, it’s now possible to live in one city and work in the other. 【答案】connecting 【解析】句意：有了这座连接两座城市的大桥，人们现在可以在一个城市生活，在另一个城市工作。分析句子可知，此处是“with+宾语+宾语补足语”的结构，bridge和connect之间是主动关系（桥主动连接两座城市），因此用现在分词形式connecting作宾语补足语。故填connecting。 15. There is a close 　　　　　　　　 (connect) between diet and health. 【答案】connection 【解析】句意：饮食与健康之间有着密切的联系。空格前有不定冠词“a”和形容词“close”，说明此处需要填一个单数可数名词作句子的主语。动词connect对应的名词形式是connection，表示“联系、关联”。 二、完成句子 1. 蚂蚁能举起相当于自身体重50倍的东西。它们通过身体两侧的小孔呼吸。 　　　　　　　　 can lift things 50 times their own weight. They take in air through the small holes on both sides of their bodies. 【答案】Ants 【解析】根据中英文对照可知，此处缺“蚂蚁”，ant“蚂蚁”，为可数名词，由“their own weight”可知，此处应用可数名词复数形式，句首单词首字母要大写。故填Ants。 2. 他被授予 “英雄航天员” 的称号。 He was given the 　　　　　　　　 “Heroic Astronaut”. 【答案】title 【解析】原句中“称号”是关键词，表示“称号”的词是title。was given the title，表示 “被授予……称号”，符合语境。故填title。 3. 由于这个原因，我们不得不离开。 　　　　　　　　, we have to leave. 【答案】For this reason 【解析】根据中英文对照可知，介词for“因为”，后跟this reason“这个原因”作宾语；句首首字母f应大写。故填For this reason。 4. 在我们的文化中，许多传统都与节日有关。 Many traditions 　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　 festivals in our culture. 【答案】① are    ② connected    ③ with 【解析】原句中“与……有关”是关键词，表示“与……有关”常用固定短语be connected with，句子描述客观事实，时态为一般现在时，主语为复数，be动词用are。 5. He got up early so that he could catch the first bus. (改为同义句) He got up early 　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　 to catch the first bus. 【答案】① in    ② order 【解析】句意：他早起，以便能赶上头班车。原句中“so that”引导目的状语从句，改为同义句时，可以用“in order to do sth.”进行转换，故填in；order。 三、单项选择 1.

The number of the students in our school ________ 1,200. A number of them ________ from Sichuan. A. is; is B. is; are C. are; are D. are; is 【答案】B 【解析】句意：我们学校学生的数量是1200。他们中很多人来自四川。 考查主谓一致。is是，be的第三人称单数现在时形式；are是，用于第一人称复数、第二人称单复数和第三人称复数的现在时形式。“the number of+名词复数”表示“……的数量”，作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式，所以第一个空用is；“a number of+名词复数”表示“许多……”，作主语时，谓语动词用复数形式，所以第二个空用are。故选B。 5. Everyone should play a part _____the earth. A. to save B. saved C. for saving D. in saving 【答案】D 【解析】句意：每个人在保护地球方面起着重要作用。 考查动词短语。play a part in doing在某事上起作用。根据语意和选项，故选D。 6. —It’s Saturday morning!

They walked for over 500 kilometers! During the journey, they visited villages, ate farmers’ crops, and even took naps by the road. Scientists followed them all the way. They used drones and trucks to watch the elephants. Why did they walk so far? Some scientists think it was because their group was getting too big, and they needed more space. Others think the leader of the elephants might have lost its way. During the 17-month journey, no elephants or humans got hurt. Local governments helped the elephants by giving them food and closing roads. This event showed how much China cares about wildlife protection. Now, the elephants have returned to their home safely, but people are still talking about their amazing trip. 1. Where did the elephants start their journey? A. From a zoo in Beijing.

The “bird” looked like something out of a fantasy movie. But it was a 46-year-old man, Matt Trevelyan. He was interested in birdwatching. He wore Eurasian curlew (白腰杓鹬) clothes! Eurasian curlews are large birds with long legs. The number of them is getting smaller and smaller, and they are almost disappearing in the UK. Farming and building are destroying (破坏) their homes. Foxes, crows, and even sheep eat their eggs or babies. Matt works in a protected natural area, and he knows the importance of helping the birds. He spent three days creating the curlew costume with bamboo, cloth, and plastic. Then, he wore it and walked 53 miles in total along the way. This unusual walk wasn’t for fun. It carried a meaningful purpose to draw attention (引起注意) to curlew protection. Matt’s idea came from a writer named Mary Colwell. In 2016, Mary walked about 500 miles across the British Isles to learn more about the fewer and fewer curlews and make people notice them. In 2017, she created World Curlew Day. In 2018, Mary published a book to share her journey. After raising some money, Mary formed a charity (慈善) to save the birds in 2019. Matt wanted to do something similar. His walk was his own way of supporting the birds’ protection. It tells us that even one person can make a difference in protecting animals. Maybe we can all do something to help, too! 1. Which of the following is NOT mentioned about Matt? A. His age. B. His hobby. C. His workplace. D. His hometown. 2. Why did Matt wear a curlew costome? A. To study the bird’s habits. B. To make people laugh. C. To draw attention to curlew protection. D. To try new materials for making costumes. 3. What is the right order of the following events? ①Mary formed a charity.                                        ②Mary published a book. ③Mary had a 500-mile walk.                                   ④World Curlew Day was created. A. ②→①→③→④ B. ③→④→①→② C. ②→①→④→③ D. ③→④→②→① 4. From what Matt did, we can learn that he was ______. A. strict B. kind C. honest D. polite 5. What does the writer want to tell the readers? A. Even one person’s actions matter to wildlife protection. B. Some necessary actions should be taken to protect wildlife. C. Trying unusual ways sometimes can achieve good results. D. A good role model can have a strong influence on a person. 【答案】1. D     2. C     3. D     4. B     5. A      【解析】本文主要介绍了一名英国男子Matt为保护濒危的白腰杓鹬，花费三日制作鸟服，步行五十三英里以唤起公众关注。他的灵感源于环保作家Mary，旨在以个人行动证明：人人皆可为保护自然贡献力量。 (1)题： 细节理解题。根据“But it was a 46-year-old man, Matt Trevelyan. He was interested in birdwatching.”及“Matt works in a protected natural area,”可知，文章介绍了Matt的年龄、爱好和工作地点，没有表明家乡。故选D。 (2)题： 细节理解题。根据“This unusual walk wasn’t for fun. It carried a meaningful purpose to draw attention to curlew protection.”可知，此次异常行走并非出于娱乐目的。此举旨在引起公众对保护鹬类的关注，具有重要意义。即表示目的是“引起公众对保护鹬类的关注”。故选C。 (3)题： 细节理解题。根据“In 2016, Mary walked about 500 miles across the British Isles to learn more about the fewer and fewer curlews and make people notice them. In 2017, she created World Curlew Day. In 2018, Mary published a book to share her journey. After raising some money, Mary formed a charity to save the birds in 2019.”可知，事件发生的顺序为：③Mary要走500英里的路。④World Curlew Day的设立。②Mary出版了一本书。①Mary成立了一个慈善机构。故选D。 (4)题： 推理判断题。根据“Matt works in a protected natural area, and he knows the importance of helping the birds.”及“Matt wanted to do something similar. His walk was his own way of supporting the birds’ protection.”可知，他知道帮助鸟类的重要性，想做Mary做的类似的事情。他的行走是他支持鸟类保护的一种方式。可知Matt是一个善良的人。故选B。 (5)题： 主旨大意题。根据“It tells us that even one person can make a difference in protecting animals.”可知，它告诉我们，即使一个人也能在保护动物方面发挥作用。表示“即使一个人的行动也对野生动物保护至关重要”。故选A。 二、阅读还原 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。 Whether you love them or hate them, there’s no doubt that spiders are amazing animals. In a 2017 study, scientists showed that some people are born with a fear of them. 　　　　1　　　　. So what do you think? Should people learn to love spiders? Yes—spiders are helpful to humans. The truth is, spiders work for humans to clear our homes and gardens of all the pests (害虫). Spiders are considered to be the friends to gardeners. 　　　　2　　　　. Spiders are amazing animals. They have many talents, including making silk from their bodies, which is among the strongest and most flexible (柔韧的) natural materials on Earth. 　　　　3　　　　. In fact, they usually try to get away from people or hide. Spiders are an important part of the ecosystem (生态系统), so people should learn to love them if humans want to protect the environment. No—people fear spiders for good reasons. With their many eyes and eight legs, spiders look scary. 　　　　4　　　　. The giant house spider can move at half a metre in a second. Without even knowing them, they may have climbed up your leg. It’s no wonder so many people are scared of spiders, and maybe it’s wise to feel fear. 　　　　5　　　　. So we should learn to protect spiders instead of doing harm to them. They are also our friends. But not all spiders are harmless to humans, so you still have to be careful not to get bitten by a spider. A. They also move so fast B. However, others think they are amazing C. Some small spiders are liked by some children D. And spiders teach us how to make a perfect web E. In a word, spiders play an important role in nature F. This is because they eat lots of pests that harm plants G. Spiders may look strange, but they don’t want to harm humans 【答案】1. B     2. F     3. G     4. A     5. E      【解析】本文主要介绍了蜘蛛。 (1)题： 根据“In a 2017 study, scientists showed that some people are born with a fear of them.”可知，上文提到有些人天生怕蜘蛛，此处应是另外一些人有不同看法，承接下文的“你觉得呢？”。选项B“然而，其他人认为它们很神奇”符合语境。故选B。 (2)题： 根据“Spiders are considered to be the friends to gardeners.”可知，蜘蛛被认为是园丁的朋友，此处应是解释原因。选项F“这是因为它们吃了很多危害植物的害虫”符合语境。故选F。 (3)题： 根据“They have many talents, including making silk from their bodies”“In fact, they usually try to get away from people or hide.”可知，上文讲蜘蛛能力，下文说蜘蛛会避开人，此处需要一个句子承上启下。选项G“蜘蛛可能看起来很奇怪，但它们不想伤害人类”符合语境。故选G。 (4)题： 根据“The giant house spider can move at half a metre in a second.”可知，巨大的家蜘蛛每秒可以移动半米。选项A“它们也移动得很快”符合语境。故选A。 (5)题： 根据“So we should learn to protect spiders instead of doing harm to them. They are also our friends.”可知，此处总结概括蜘蛛的作用。选项E“总之，蜘蛛在自然界中起着重要作用”符合语境。故选E。 三、阅读问答 阅读下文并回答问题。 A Guide Dog Trainer’s Important Work Early in the morning, Liu Changtai, a 29-year-old guide dog trainer in Xi’an, starts his day by walking dogs one by one. This first lesson—teaching them to go to the toilet at a set time—is just the start of training them to become the “eyes” for visually impaired people (视障人士). “That’s only one of the most basic skills,” says Liu. “In fact, guide dogs need to learn over 30 skills, from avoiding obstacles (障碍物) in their way to recognizing different buildings.” Spending time with the dogs is fun, but training is hard work. Trainers hold almost all classes outside, in all kinds of weather. They also need to repeat orders hundreds of times which can be boring and tiring. Yet Liu finds deep meaning in his work. Earlier this year, one of his dogs successfully matched with a visually impaired person in Tianjin. When Liu saw videos of them going out together safely, he felt very happy and proud. “That’s why I do this job. We’re not just training dogs, but we’re giving people their freedom back,” he says. However, there are fewer guide dogs than are needed in China. Liu points out several clear reasons. A reason is the high cost of training. Visually impaired people can get guide dogs for free, but it costs a lot to train one. Another reason is that the training standards (标准) are extremely high. For example, at Liu’s training center, about half of the dogs fail to pass. Also, there are not enough professional (职业的) trainers to meet the great need. Despite these challenges, trainers like Liu continue their important work. They know that every successful guide dog can truly change someone’s life. 1. Does Liu’s day start with taking the dog for a walk? 2. How many skills does a guide dog need to learn? 3. What causes there to be fewer guide dogs than are needed? 4. What do you think a good guide dog trainer should be like? Why? (More than 30 words) 【答案】1. Yes, it does.     2. Over 30 skills.     3. The high cost of training, extremely high training standards, and not enough professional trainers.     4. A good guide dog trainer should be patient and dedicated because training guide dogs requires repeating orders hundreds of times, which can be boring and tiring. They should also have a deep love for dogs and a strong sense of responsibility, as they are not just training dogs but giving people their freedom back.      【解析】本文主要讨论了导盲犬训练师的重要工作，包括导盲犬训练的起始步骤、所需技能、训练的艰辛与意义，以及中国导盲犬数量不足的原因。 (1)题： 根据第一段首句“Early in the morning, Liu Changtai, a 29-year-old guide dog trainer in Xi’an, starts his day by walking dogs one by one.”可知，林的一天是从一只一只地遛狗开始的。故填Yes, it does. (2)题： 根据第二段“In fact, guide dogs need to learn over 30 skills, from avoiding obstacles (障碍物) in their way to recognizing different buildings.”可知，导盲犬需要学习超过30种技能。故填Over 30 skills. (3)题： 根据倒数第二段“However, there are fewer guide dogs than are needed in China. Liu points out several clear reasons. a reason is the high cost of training. Visually impaired people can get guide dogs for free, but it costs a lot to train one. Another reason is that the training standards (标准) are extremely high. For example, at Liu’s training center, about half of the dogs fail to pass. Also, there are not enough professional (职业的) trainers to meet the great need.”可知，训练成本高、训练标准极高以及专业训练师不足导致了导盲犬数量不足。故填The high cost of training, extremely high training standards, and not enough professional trainers. (4)题： 开放性问题，言之有理即可。参考答案为：A good guide dog trainer should be patient and dedicated because training guide dogs requires repeating orders hundreds of times, which can be boring and tiring. They should also have a deep love for dogs and a strong sense of responsibility, as they are not just training dogs but giving people their freedom back. 阅读单选 （来源:2026年浙江省中考英语试题）Build Your Butterfly Garden Did you know butterflies are more than good-looking?

During the journey, they visited villages, ate farmers’ crops, and even took naps by the road. Scientists followed them all the way. They used drones and trucks to watch the elephants. Why did they walk so far? Some scientists think it was because their group was getting too big, and they needed more space. Others think the leader of the elephants might have lost its way. During the 17-month journey, no elephants or humans got hurt. Local governments helped the elephants by giving them food and closing roads. This event showed how much China cares about wildlife protection. Now, the elephants have returned to their home safely, but people are still talking about their amazing trip. 1. Where did the elephants start their journey? A. From a zoo in Beijing. B. From Xishuangbanna. C. From a farm in Yunnan. D. From a city center. 2. How long did the elephants’ journey last? A. About 5 months. B. About 17 months. C. Over 500 months. D. Less than a year. 3. What did the scientists use to watch the elephants? A. Planes and buses. B. Drones and trucks. C. Cameras and bikes. D. Satellites and cars. 4. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE? A. The elephants hurt many people during the journey. B. Scientists don’t know exactly why the elephants walked north. C. The elephants walked north because they were hungry. D. All the elephants got lost on the way. 5. What is the best title for the passage? A. The Way to Protect Elephants B. The Life of Asian Elephants C. A Long Walk Home D. Drones and Wild Animals B篇 This April in northern England, a “huge bird” was walking through the fields! The “bird” looked like something out of a fantasy movie. But it was a 46-year-old man, Matt Trevelyan. He was interested in birdwatching. He wore Eurasian curlew (白腰杓鹬) clothes! Eurasian curlews are large birds with long legs. The number of them is getting smaller and smaller, and they are almost disappearing in the UK. Farming and building are destroying (破坏) their homes. Foxes, crows, and even sheep eat their eggs or babies. Matt works in a protected natural area, and he knows the importance of helping the birds. He spent three days creating the curlew costume with bamboo, cloth, and plastic. Then, he wore it and walked 53 miles in total along the way. This unusual walk wasn’t for fun. It carried a meaningful purpose to draw attention (引起注意) to curlew protection. Matt’s idea came from a writer named Mary Colwell. In 2016, Mary walked about 500 miles across the British Isles to learn more about the fewer and fewer curlews and make people notice them. In 2017, she created World Curlew Day. In 2018, Mary published a book to share her journey. After raising some money, Mary formed a charity (慈善) to save the birds in 2019. Matt wanted to do something similar. His walk was his own way of supporting the birds’ protection. It tells us that even one person can make a difference in protecting animals. Maybe we can all do something to help, too! 1. Which of the following is NOT mentioned about Matt? A. His age. B. His hobby. C. His workplace. D. His hometown. 2. Why did Matt wear a curlew costome? A. To study the bird’s habits. B. To make people laugh. C. To draw attention to curlew protection. D. To try new materials for making costumes. 3. What is the right order of the following events? ①Mary formed a charity.                                        ②Mary published a book. ③Mary had a 500-mile walk.                                   ④World Curlew Day was created. A. ②→①→③→④ B. ③→④→①→② C. ②→①→④→③ D. ③→④→②→① 4. From what Matt did, we can learn that he was ______. A. strict B. kind C. honest D. polite 5. What does the writer want to tell the readers? A. Even one person’s actions matter to wildlife protection. B. Some necessary actions should be taken to protect wildlife. C. Trying unusual ways sometimes can achieve good results. D. A good role model can have a strong influence on a person. 二、阅读还原 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。 Whether you love them or hate them, there’s no doubt that spiders are amazing animals. In a 2017 study, scientists showed that some people are born with a fear of them. 　　　　1　　　　. So what do you think? Should people learn to love spiders? Yes—spiders are helpful to humans. The truth is, spiders work for humans to clear our homes and gardens of all the pests (害虫). Spiders are considered to be the friends to gardeners. 　　　　2　　　　. Spiders are amazing animals. They have many talents, including making silk from their bodies, which is among the strongest and most flexible (柔韧的) natural materials on Earth. 　　　　3　　　　. In fact, they usually try to get away from people or hide. Spiders are an important part of the ecosystem (生态系统), so people should learn to love them if humans want to protect the environment. No—people fear spiders for good reasons. With their many eyes and eight legs, spiders look scary. 　　　　4　　　　. The giant house spider can move at half a metre in a second. Without even knowing them, they may have climbed up your leg. It’s no wonder so many people are scared of spiders, and maybe it’s wise to feel fear. 　　　　5　　　　. So we should learn to protect spiders instead of doing harm to them. They are also our friends. But not all spiders are harmless to humans, so you still have to be careful not to get bitten by a spider. A. They also move so fast B. However, others think they are amazing C. Some small spiders are liked by some children D. And spiders teach us how to make a perfect web E. In a word, spiders play an important role in nature F. This is because they eat lots of pests that harm plants G. Spiders may look strange, but they don’t want to harm humans 三、阅读问答 阅读下文并回答问题。 A Guide Dog Trainer’s Important Work Early in the morning, Liu Changtai, a 29-year-old guide dog trainer in Xi’an, starts his day by walking dogs one by one. This first lesson—teaching them to go to the toilet at a set time—is just the start of training them to become the “eyes” for visually impaired people (视障人士). “That’s only one of the most basic skills,” says Liu. “In fact, guide dogs need to learn over 30 skills, from avoiding obstacles (障碍物) in their way to recognizing different buildings.” Spending time with the dogs is fun, but training is hard work. Trainers hold almost all classes outside, in all kinds of weather. They also need to repeat orders hundreds of times which can be boring and tiring. Yet Liu finds deep meaning in his work. Earlier this year, one of his dogs successfully matched with a visually impaired person in Tianjin. When Liu saw videos of them going out together safely, he felt very happy and proud. “That’s why I do this job. We’re not just training dogs, but we’re giving people their freedom back,” he says. However, there are fewer guide dogs than are needed in China. Liu points out several clear reasons. A reason is the high cost of training. Visually impaired people can get guide dogs for free, but it costs a lot to train one. Another reason is that the training standards (标准) are extremely high. For example, at Liu’s training center, about half of the dogs fail to pass. Also, there are not enough professional (职业的) trainers to meet the great need. Despite these challenges, trainers like Liu continue their important work. They know that every successful guide dog can truly change someone’s life. 1. Does Liu’s day start with taking the dog for a walk? 2. How many skills does a guide dog need to learn? 3. What causes there to be fewer guide dogs than are needed? 4. What do you think a good guide dog trainer should be like? Why? (More than 30 words) 阅读单选 （来源:2026年浙江省中考英语试题）Build Your Butterfly Garden Did you know butterflies are more than good-looking?
