B When Williams learned about the library transformation project in 2023, she knew they would want to get involved. “It’s an important part of who we are. This project excited us immediately, and I knew it would be our reconnection point with the college,” she said. Williams and Henry met in the library, but they got to know each other through a shared lab with former Davidson Psychology Professor Scott Tonidandel. Williams spent long hours working on her psychology thesis (心理学论文) in the Watson Life Science building, which Henry also frequented — sometimes even to take a power nap during long study sessions. Both found a lifelong mentor (良师) in Tonidandel. While she was a student, Williams’ parents supported the college by giving to the Davidson Research Initiative, which funds opportunities for cooperative research and in-depth study between students and teachers in the summer. Watching them invest in the areas they most cared about, she knew she wanted to do the same. The couple imagine a library that will meet people where they are, a place where students can find community and refuge (庇护) outside of their dorms and classes. “Everyone needs a third place,” Williams said. “A central location away from home and work that meets your needs no matter what they might be. The library was a third place for us as students, but it didn’t offer as much as it could have.” While they’ve maintained connections with Davidson friends and mentors over the years, becoming involved with the library project has deepened their ties to the college. Whether they’re meeting with staff, grabbing dinner at Sabi or listening to students at the Nisbet Venture Fund competition, the couple has found many ways to reengage with campus life and the greater Davidson community. “There are so many ways to contribute to this place,” Henry said. “The idea of legacy (传承) at Davidson feels so strong, and we’re always redefining what that legacy means to us.” 4. Why did Williams feel excited about the library project? A. It brought back her fond memories. B. It would be a good place to read and relax. C. She could reconnect with Davidson College. D. She could meet with Professor Scott Tonidandel. 5. Who gave Williams inspiration to contribute to Davidson? A. Williams’ parents. B. Professor Tonidandel. C. Williams’ husband. D. Henry’s mentor. 6. What may be a “third place” according to Williams? A. A quiet place for doing homework. B. A nice place for students to socialize. C. A shelter from dangers on the campus. D. A location away from home and work. 7. What does Henry mainly indicate in the last paragraph? A. Davidson has a tradition of making contributions. B. Legacy has failed to be clearly defined at Davidson. C. We can each contribute to Davidson in unique ways. D. The legacy of Davidson must always be maintained. C Engineers from Johns Hopkins have looked to how snakes move around to inform the design of a new robot. It is hoped that the development could lead to search and rescue robots able to deal with all kinds of barriers with ease. “We look to these creepy creatures for movement inspiration because they are so highly skilled at steadily overcoming barriers in their day-to-day lives,” said Chen Li, senior author on the study. “Hopefully our robot can learn how to move across surfaces just like snakes.” Observing how a kingsnake climbed up steps of varying height and different surfaces, the researchers noted that the snake used both side-to-side wriggling (蠕动) and a balancing, outstretched motion to move forward. When faced with a step, the snake seemed to divide its body into three — the front and rear (后部) both moved back and forth while the middle section remained stiff. When approaching a step, the front section would increase in length, the middle section would remain roughly the same and the rear section would be shortened. Speed would be reduced and the wriggling would be less obvious for higher steps or those with smooth surfaces, to help maintain stability (稳定). After examining video recordings of the snakes, graduate student Qiyuan Fu set about building a snake-inspired robot. An early version of the 10-section, wheeled robot had stability issues when faced with steps, often turning over or getting stuck. The engineers reduced its roll instability by adding a suspension (悬浮) mechanism between each one-way wheel and section of the body. Now able to push itself against a surface when climbing, the snake-bot could pretty much climb steps “as high as 38 percent of its body length”. The team notes that its robot almost matched the speed of the animal that inspired it. But the addition of the suspension does mean that it needs more power to operate than earlier robots from other studies. The engineers will continue to work on the snake-bot with a view to making it capable of taking on more complex barriers. 8. What does Chen Li desire their new robot to do? A. Discover hidden objects easily. B. Cross various barriers smoothly. C. Remove barriers along the way. D. Adapt to changing environments. 9. How does a snake manage to climb steps? A. By increasing speed. B. By lowering its middle. C. By shortening its rear. D. By wriggling more often. 10. Why did engineers use a suspension mechanism? A. To fix the wheels firmly. B. To make the robot lighter. C. To lower energy consumption. D. To keep the robot’s roll stable. 11. What can we infer about the snake-bot from the last paragraph? A. It is faster than any real snake. B. It consumes more energy now. C. It has already replaced earlier models. D. Its suspension system is unnecessary. D Until recently, tiptoeing through floodwater to get to work was just part of daily life for Londoners living around Greenford Tube Station. The ticket hall frequently found itself flooded after a heavy downpour. It left the local council facing the scary prospect of expensive engineering works to solve the problem — that was until beavers (海狸) came along and apparently fixed the problem for free. “Even in situations like on Monday, where there was really heavy rainfall, the area didn’t flood,” said Seniz Mustafa, England’s first urban beaver officer, who witnessed the animals’ handiwork firsthand. “When they put their minds to it, they really get things finished.” Keen to demonstrate how “nature’s engineers” could make London more climate resilient (韧性的), environmentalists were permitted to release five of the animals along the stream running through the land. The Ealing Beaver Project was born. The animals got to work immediately, reengineering the landscape around Greenford with a series of dams, which created a new lake almost overnight. They even knocked down an old dam built by volunteers and replaced it with a better one of their own. “I just can’t believe how much they’ve done in a short period of time; they basically said ‘step aside, humans’,” Mustafa told Positive News. “We do make things a little bit hard for ourselves. It goes to show that we don’t have to use heavy machinery or build infrastructure (基础设施). Nature can do it.” The beavers’ handiwork has not only helped ease flooding; it’s also boosted biodiversity. “We’ve had four new species in the last 11 months alone. One of them is the stickleback, which lives alongside dragonflies and damselflies. We also had redpoll, which is a bird that only really stops off on migration,” said Mustafa. “It’s interesting to see how other wildlife will just resettle and return to a space. “ It’s a boon for humans, too, especially in a city where access to nature is limited. “The benefit to the local community is massive,” said Mustafa. “The animals have completely transformed my view of what beavers can do.” 12. What kind of feeling does Mustafa express in paragraph 2? A. Curiosity. B. Deep sorrow. C. Satisfaction. D. Great anxiety. 13. What impresses Mustafa most regarding beavers in The Ealing Beaver Project? A. Their team spirit. B. Their higher intelligence. C. Their sensitivity. D. Their working efficiency. 14. What does the underlined word “boon” probably mean in the last paragraph? A. Challenge. B. Benefit. C. Reminder. D. Target. 15. What can be the best title for the text? A. Beavers’ Help: A Free Fix for a London Tube Station’s Flooding B. Beavers’ Role: How Nature’s Builders Fight Against Climate Change C. Wildlife Success: How London Is Bringing Animals Back to the City D. Flood Fighting: How Animals Try to Stop Water in Modern Cities 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 There are many reasons why I prefer swimming over all other sports.

So when her message appeared in our family group chat two days before she passed away, none of us truly paused to consider its weight. “Does anyone have a little money to spare? I’d like to buy something important,” she typed. Most of my family scrolled past without a second thought. We were rushing — work, kids, deadlines, endless to-do lists. Grandma was a rock; she never asked for anything, and when she did, it was usually for someone else. We simply assumed she was fine. But something about that word, “important”, caught in my throat. Maybe it was the quiet urgency beneath her usual cheerfulness. That night, I sent her a small amount privately, without questioning why. Her reply came instantly: “Thank you, sweetheart.” And a single red heart emoji (表情符号). The very next morning, she was gone. Peacefully, in her sleep. We were stunned, heartbroken, utterly unprepared. The day after her funeral (葬礼), I went to her small house to help my parents clean. Stepping into her cozy kitchen — still faintly smelling of spices (香料) from countless Sunday dinners — I stopped cold. The counter was covered, not with dishes, but with dozens of small, beautifully wrapped gift boxes. Each was tied with golden ribbon, each tagged (贴标签) with a name written in her graceful, familiar handwriting. Mine was there. My parents’. My cousins’. Even Uncle Robert’s — he hadn’t visited her for five years. Trembling, I opened my box. Inside lay a tiny silver pendant (挂件), a faded black-and-white photo of us from my childhood, and a folded piece of paper. Her handwriting stared back at me: “You were the only one who listened when I needed someone. Don’t ever lose that kindness. It’s the rarest thing we can give.” 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。 That was when the full realization started to hit me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I sat there for hours, surrounded by her quiet generosity. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 10月高二英语 注意事项： 1．本试卷共14页。时间120分钟，满分150分。答题前，考生先将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在试卷指定位置，并将姓名、考场号、座位号、准考证号填写在答题卡上，然后认真核对条形码上的信息，并将条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2．作答选择题时，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，再选涂其他答案标号。作答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上对应的答题区域内。写在本试卷上无效。 3．考试结束后，将试卷和答题卡一并收回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，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段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。 1.

This project excited us immediately, and I knew it would be our reconnection point with the college,” she said. Williams and Henry met in the library, but they got to know each other through a shared lab with former Davidson Psychology Professor Scott Tonidandel. Williams spent long hours working on her psychology thesis (心理学论文) in the Watson Life Science building, which Henry also frequented — sometimes even to take a power nap during long study sessions. Both found a lifelong mentor (良师) in Tonidandel. While she was a student, Williams’ parents supported the college by giving to the Davidson Research Initiative, which funds opportunities for cooperative research and in-depth study between students and teachers in the summer. Watching them invest in the areas they most cared about, she knew she wanted to do the same. The couple imagine a library that will meet people where they are, a place where students can find community and refuge (庇护) outside of their dorms and classes. “Everyone needs a third place,” Williams said. “A central location away from home and work that meets your needs no matter what they might be. The library was a third place for us as students, but it didn’t offer as much as it could have.” While they’ve maintained connections with Davidson friends and mentors over the years, becoming involved with the library project has deepened their ties to the college. Whether they’re meeting with staff, grabbing dinner at Sabi or listening to students at the Nisbet Venture Fund competition, the couple has found many ways to reengage with campus life and the greater Davidson community. “There are so many ways to contribute to this place,” Henry said. “The idea of legacy (传承) at Davidson feels so strong, and we’re always redefining what that legacy means to us.” 4. Why did Williams feel excited about the library project? A. It brought back her fond memories. B. It would be a good place to read and relax. C. She could reconnect with Davidson College. D. She could meet with Professor Scott Tonidandel. 5. Who gave Williams inspiration to contribute to Davidson? A. Williams’ parents. B. Professor Tonidandel. C. Williams’ husband. D. Henry’s mentor. 6. What may be a “third place” according to Williams? A. A quiet place for doing homework. B. A nice place for students to socialize. C. A shelter from dangers on the campus. D. A location away from home and work. 7. What does Henry mainly indicate in the last paragraph? A. Davidson has a tradition of making contributions. B. Legacy has failed to be clearly defined at Davidson. C. We can each contribute to Davidson in unique ways. D. The legacy of Davidson must always be maintained. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要说明了Williams夫妇了解到图书馆改造项目后积极参与。二人曾在该校相识，受父母影响愿意回馈母校。他们希望图书馆成为学生的“第三空间”，以自己的方式续写学校的传承。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“This project excited us immediately, and I knew it would be our reconnection point with the college(这个项目立刻让我们感到兴奋，我知道它将成为我们与大学重新连接的起点)”可知，威廉姆斯对图书馆项目感到兴奋因为她可以重新与戴维森学院建立联系。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“While she was a student, Williams’ parents supported the college by giving to the Davidson Research Initiative, which funds opportunities for cooperative research and in-depth study between students and teachers in the summer. Watching them invest in the areas they most cared about, she knew she wanted to do the same.(在学生时代，威廉姆斯的父母通过向戴维森研究计划捐款来支持大学，该计划为学生和教师在夏季开展合作研究和深入学习提供机会。看到他们投入自己最关心的领域，她知道自己也想做同样的事)”可知，威廉姆斯的父母启发了威廉姆斯为戴维森做出贡献。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“A central location away from home and work that meets your needs no matter what they might be.(一个远离家和工作中心的地点，无论你的需求如何，都能满足你)”可知，“第三空间”是一个远离家与工作的中心地点。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““There are so many ways to contribute to this place,” Henry said. “The idea of legacy (传承) at Davidson feels so strong, and we’re always redefining what that legacy means to us.”(“为这个地方做出贡献的方式有很多，”亨利说，“在戴维森，传承的理念非常强烈，而我们一直在重新定义这种传承对我们意味着什么。”)”可知，亨利在最后一段主要表明了我们每个人都可以以独特的方式为戴维森做出贡献。 C Engineers from Johns Hopkins have looked to how snakes move around to inform the design of a new robot. It is hoped that the development could lead to search and rescue robots able to deal with all kinds of barriers with ease. “We look to these creepy creatures for movement inspiration because they are so highly skilled at steadily overcoming barriers in their day-to-day lives,” said Chen Li, senior author on the study. “Hopefully our robot can learn how to move across surfaces just like snakes.” Observing how a kingsnake climbed up steps of varying height and different surfaces, the researchers noted that the snake used both side-to-side wriggling (蠕动) and a balancing, outstretched motion to move forward. When faced with a step, the snake seemed to divide its body into three — the front and rear (后部) both moved back and forth while the middle section remained stiff. When approaching a step, the front section would increase in length, the middle section would remain roughly the same and the rear section would be shortened. Speed would be reduced and the wriggling would be less obvious for higher steps or those with smooth surfaces, to help maintain stability (稳定). After examining video recordings of the snakes, graduate student Qiyuan Fu set about building a snake-inspired robot. An early version of the 10-section, wheeled robot had stability issues when faced with steps, often turning over or getting stuck. The engineers reduced its roll instability by adding a suspension (悬浮) mechanism between each one-way wheel and section of the body. Now able to push itself against a surface when climbing, the snake-bot could pretty much climb steps “as high as 38 percent of its body length”. The team notes that its robot almost matched the speed of the animal that inspired it. But the addition of the suspension does mean that it needs more power to operate than earlier robots from other studies. The engineers will continue to work on the snake-bot with a view to making it capable of taking on more complex barriers. 8. What does Chen Li desire their new robot to do? A. Discover hidden objects easily. B. Cross various barriers smoothly. C. Remove barriers along the way. D. Adapt to changing environments. 9. How does a snake manage to climb steps? A. By increasing speed. B. By lowering its middle. C. By shortening its rear. D. By wriggling more often. 10. Why did engineers use a suspension mechanism? A. To fix the wheels firmly. B. To make the robot lighter. C. To lower energy consumption. D. To keep the robot’s roll stable. 11. What can we infer about the snake-bot from the last paragraph? A. It is faster than any real snake. B. It consumes more energy now. C. It has already replaced earlier models. D. Its suspension system is unnecessary. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】研究人员模仿王蛇的攀爬动作研发出一款机器蛇，通过加装悬浮结构提升越障能力，但其能耗更高，团队将继续优化升级。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“It is hoped that the development could lead to search and rescue robots able to deal with all kinds of barriers with ease.(这项研发有望打造出能够轻松应对各类障碍的搜救机器人。)”可知，陈丽希望新机器人能够顺利跨越各类障碍物。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“When approaching a step, the front section would increase in length, the middle section would remain roughly the same and the rear section would be shortened.(靠近台阶时，蛇的前段身体会变长，中段基本保持不变，后段身体则会缩短。)”可知，蛇通过缩短尾部身体来攀爬台阶。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“The engineers reduced its roll instability by adding a suspension (悬浮) mechanism between each one-way wheel and section of the body.(工程师们通过在每个单向轮子和机身段之间加装悬浮结构，降低了机器人的侧翻不稳定性。)”可知，加装悬浮结构是为了保持机器人滚动时的稳定性。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“But the addition of the suspension does mean that it needs more power to operate than earlier robots from other studies.(但悬浮结构的加装，确实意味着它比以往研究中的机器人运行能耗更高。)”可知，这款机器蛇如今消耗更多能源。 D Until recently, tiptoeing through floodwater to get to work was just part of daily life for Londoners living around Greenford Tube Station. The ticket hall frequently found itself flooded after a heavy downpour. It left the local council facing the scary prospect of expensive engineering works to solve the problem — that was until beavers (海狸) came along and apparently fixed the problem for free. “Even in situations like on Monday, where there was really heavy rainfall, the area didn’t flood,” said Seniz Mustafa, England’s first urban beaver officer, who witnessed the animals’ handiwork firsthand. “When they put their minds to it, they really get things finished.” Keen to demonstrate how “nature’s engineers” could make London more climate resilient (韧性的), environmentalists were permitted to release five of the animals along the stream running through the land. The Ealing Beaver Project was born. The animals got to work immediately, reengineering the landscape around Greenford with a series of dams, which created a new lake almost overnight. They even knocked down an old dam built by volunteers and replaced it with a better one of their own. “I just can’t believe how much they’ve done in a short period of time; they basically said ‘step aside, humans’,” Mustafa told Positive News. “We do make things a little bit hard for ourselves. It goes to show that we don’t have to use heavy machinery or build infrastructure (基础设施). Nature can do it.” The beavers’ handiwork has not only helped ease flooding; it’s also boosted biodiversity. “We’ve had four new species in the last 11 months alone. One of them is the stickleback, which lives alongside dragonflies and damselflies. We also had redpoll, which is a bird that only really stops off on migration,” said Mustafa. “It’s interesting to see how other wildlife will just resettle and return to a space. “ It’s a boon for humans, too, especially in a city where access to nature is limited. “The benefit to the local community is massive,” said Mustafa. “The animals have completely transformed my view of what beavers can do.” 12. What kind of feeling does Mustafa express in paragraph 2? A. Curiosity. B. Deep sorrow. C. Satisfaction. D. Great anxiety. 13. What impresses Mustafa most regarding beavers in The Ealing Beaver Project? A. Their team spirit. B. Their higher intelligence. C. Their sensitivity. D. Their working efficiency. 14. What does the underlined word “boon” probably mean in the last paragraph? A. Challenge. B. Benefit. C. Reminder. D. Target. 15. What can be the best title for the text? A. Beavers’ Help: A Free Fix for a London Tube Station’s Flooding B. Beavers’ Role: How Nature’s Builders Fight Against Climate Change C. Wildlife Success: How London Is Bringing Animals Back to the City D. Flood Fighting: How Animals Try to Stop Water in Modern Cities 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述伦敦引入海狸开展生态项目，海狸高效筑坝解决地铁站积水问题，提升生物多样性，为当地社区带来巨大生态益处。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Even in situations like on Monday, where there was really heavy rainfall, the area didn’t flood(即使在周一那样暴雨倾盆的情况下，这片区域也没有发生洪水)”可知，海狸成功解决积水问题，Mustafa对此结果十分满意。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“I just can’t believe how much they’ve done in a short period of time; they basically said ‘step aside, humans’(我简直不敢相信它们在这么短的时间内完成了这么多工作，它们简直就是在说‘人类请让开’)”可知，最让Mustafa印象深刻的是海狸极高的工作效率。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段“It’s a boon for humans, too, especially in a city where access to nature is limited. “The benefit to the local community is massive,” said Mustafa. “The animals have completely transformed my view of what beavers can do.”(这对人类而言也是boon，尤其是在一座接触自然机会有限的城市里。Mustafa说：“这给当地社区带来的好处是巨大的。这些河狸彻底改变了我对河狸所能发挥作用的看法。”)”可知，海狸的工作对人类也是一大益处，所以猜测boon意为“好处、裨益”。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文特别是根据第一段“It left the local council facing the scary prospect of expensive engineering works to solve the problem — that was until beavers came along and apparently fixed the problem for free.(这让当地议会面临耗资巨大的工程整治难题，直到海狸出现，免费解决了这一问题。)”可知，文章主要讲述海狸免费治理伦敦地铁站积水洪患、改善生态的事迹，所以A项“Beavers’ Help: A Free Fix for a London Tube Station’s Flooding (河狸助力：伦敦地铁站水患的免费解决方案)”符合语境。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 There are many reasons why I prefer swimming over all other sports.

Silence is not emptiness but space for reflection. During a 10-minute silent reading session before class, I can focus on my thoughts and organize my notes. It also helps ease anxiety — especially before exams, a time when a brief pause calms my racing mind. Moreover, silence fosters deeper connections; a shared quiet moment with a friend often speaks louder than words.

So when her message appeared in our family group chat two days before she passed away, none of us truly paused to consider its weight. “Does anyone have a little money to spare? I’d like to buy something important,” she typed. Most of my family scrolled past without a second thought. We were rushing — work, kids, deadlines, endless to-do lists. Grandma was a rock; she never asked for anything, and when she did, it was usually for someone else. We simply assumed she was fine. But something about that word, “important”, caught in my throat. Maybe it was the quiet urgency beneath her usual cheerfulness. That night, I sent her a small amount privately, without questioning why. Her reply came instantly: “Thank you, sweetheart.” And a single red heart emoji (表情符号). The very next morning, she was gone. Peacefully, in her sleep. We were stunned, heartbroken, utterly unprepared. The day after her funeral (葬礼), I went to her small house to help my parents clean. Stepping into her cozy kitchen — still faintly smelling of spices (香料) from countless Sunday dinners — I stopped cold. The counter was covered, not with dishes, but with dozens of small, beautifully wrapped gift boxes. Each was tied with golden ribbon, each tagged (贴标签) with a name written in her graceful, familiar handwriting. Mine was there. My parents’. My cousins’. Even Uncle Robert’s — he hadn’t visited her for five years. Trembling, I opened my box. Inside lay a tiny silver pendant (挂件), a faded black-and-white photo of us from my childhood, and a folded piece of paper. Her handwriting stared back at me: “You were the only one who listened when I needed someone. Don’t ever lose that kindness. It’s the rarest thing we can give.” 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。 That was when the full realization started to hit me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I sat there for hours, surrounded by her quiet generosity. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 That was when the full realization started to hit me. Grandma hadn’t needed the money for herself; she had intended to buy these gifts as her final tokens of love for each family member. She was a giver, not a taker, and rarely made personal requests. That brief message in the group chat was her only quiet appeal, yet most of us — caught up in busy lives — overlooked it. A wave of sharp regret washed over me: If only we had sensed the unspoken urgency beneath her casual words and shown her more genuine care. I sat there for hours, surrounded by her quiet generosity. Those beautifully wrapped boxes were far more than ordinary presents; they were vessels of lasting warmth she had left for the whole family. Every pendant and handwritten note reflected her sincere, selfless affection. Clutching my silver pendant tightly, I took her lesson to heart: true kindness ranks among life’s most precious treasures. Though Grandma has departed, her noble spirit has taken deep root in my mind and inspires me to share that same warmth. 【解析】 【导语】本文以祖母生前在家庭群聊中发出的一条借钱消息为线索，讲述了家人因忙碌而忽略了她安静的请求，祖母去世后，作者在她家中发现她早已为每位家人准备好礼物。最终意识到祖母一生慷慨付出，并决心传承她那份善良与温暖。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，本段可以写作者在看到礼物后明白祖母的用意，反思自己及家人对她消息的忽视。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，本段可以写作者在祖母家中从礼物和字条中感受到她无私的爱，最终领悟到善良的可贵，并决心将这份温暖传递下去。 2. 续写线索：明白祖母用意——悔恨反思——静坐感受——领悟善良——传承温暖 3. 词类激活 行为类 忽视：overlook/ignore/neglect 紧握：clutch/clasp/hold tightly 情绪类 遗憾：regret /remorse 温暖：warmth /affection/tenderness 【点睛】[高分句型1] Those beautifully wrapped boxes were far more than ordinary presents; they were vessels of lasting warmth she had left for the whole family.（运用了省略关系代词的定语从句） [高分句型2] Though Grandma has departed, her noble spirit has taken deep root in my mind and inspires me to share that same warmth.（运用了Though引导的让步状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
