I ask them to imagine that they are alone at an old telephone booth in the Mojave Desert. The night is quiet, and there is no one for miles. Suddenly, the phone rings. “Who is calling?” I ask. Students must explain not only who is calling but also why that person has chosen to call them. The idea came from a real telephone booth that once stood in the California desert. Travelers visited it because anyone, from anywhere, might call. Although the booth has disappeared, I wondered whether an unexpected call could open an unexpected conversation. So I turned the idea into a writing task. When I first used it, I expected many kinds of answers. Some students imagined conversations with historical figures; others received calls from grandparents they had never met or strangers asking for help. But one choice appeared again and again: students imagined receiving a call from an older version of themselves. At first, I thought this simply happened by chance. Then the same pattern appeared semester after semester. Curious, I reread dozens of stories, paying attention not to who was calling but to what was being said. The future selves rarely talked about wealth, fame or great success. Instead, they offered words of comfort. They told their younger selves that failure would pass, loneliness would disappear gradually and life would become larger than today’s worries. Then I understood. These imagined callers were not predicting the future. They were giving words to hopes the students already carried but had never expressed. By imagining someone who did not exist, students found a safe way to speak honestly about the lives they were living. The telephone booth, then, is not really the destination. It is a doorway. Sometimes imagination does not take us away from reality; it helps us see it more clearly. The voice we are waiting to hear may have been our own all along. 4. What was the author’s main intention in designing this writing task? A. To honor the desert booth. B. To promote travel in the desert. C. To encourage imaginative writing. D. To analyse students’ inner thoughts. 5. What drew the author’s attention among students’ stories? A. The same kind of caller. B. The absence of grandparents. C. The fear of loneliness. D. The wide variety of answers. 6. Why did the author reread the students’ stories? A. To find writing mistakes. B. To study the repeated pattern. C. To select the best stories. D. To assess their writing skills. 7. What does the telephone booth represent in the text? A. A doorway to escape reality. B. A chance to meet unexpected people. C. A path to self-understanding. D. A symbol of unanswered questions. C Now, artificial intelligence (AI) is coming for the most attractive and exciting jobs. Stars may worry that AI is stealing their work and giving less talented performers the skills to take away their audience. In fact, the famous individuals complaining the most loudly about the new technology are the ones who stand to benefit the most. Far from weakening star power, AI will make the biggest celebrities bigger than ever by allowing them to be in all markets, in all types of media, at all times. This isn’t the first time that technology has changed the rules of the fame game. People started talking about stars in the 18th century when the widespread access to reading materials made it possible to be truly famous within your lifetime. Film and radio originally seemed like a threat to stars, who worried their live performances would be devalued. In fact, those technologies started the era of the superstar, a term that caught on in the 1920s. A similar worry greeted the invention of television. But again, the new tech made the famous even more so, bringing them into every living room. As AI-generated content floods into the entertainment business, artists and entertainment professionals are worrying once more that their fame will be reduced — and again, the outcome is likely to be the opposite. These opportunities come with conditions attached. Artists are right to worry about copyright, which must be protected if AI is not to become a legalised form of piracy (盗版). Until these copyright concerns are addressed, AI will be a legal Wild West. The bigger question is how the age of the all-around superstar will appeal to audiences. The risk is boredom. AI is brilliant at remixing and repeating old material but falls short of creating exciting content that, for now, remains a human specialty. Yet the entertainment market is highly self-correcting. Audiences have the power to turn a hot hit into a has-been one in an instant, as stars are all too aware. While AI-powered entertainment grows, consumers still seem to enjoy human drama. Sport, perhaps the most AI-proof, real-life event there is, has seen its value to media companies rise in recent years. 8. What is the primary concern of stars according to paragraph 1? A. The decline in their popularity. B. The improvement of audience’s taste. C. The low level of their acting skills. D. The ignorance of emerging technology. 9. Why does the author mention “film, radio and television” in paragraph 2? A. To show the difficulties for the stars in the past. B. To prove the techno-panic is common in history. C. To confirm AI will surely come into every family. D. To predict the trend of the technological development. 10. What is the author’s attitude to AI’s capacity of content creation? A. Favourable. B. Unconcerned. C. Ambiguous. D. Skeptical. 11. What might be the best title for the text? A. AI: A Pioneer in Entertainment Industry B. AI: Making Stars Worried or Talented? C. AI: A Creator of Copyright Trouble D. AI: A Threat or A Booster to Stars? D Feeling thirsty? Drawing clean water directly from the air is possible, as even extremely dry regions contain some moisture (水汽). Over the past few years, researchers have created sponge-like (海绵状的) materials that make “atmospheric water harvesting” (AWH) possible by absorbing moisture. However, recovering the trapped water usually involves heat and a long wait. Most current systems rely on sunlight to warm these materials. This slow step can take many hours or even stretch into days. To break this bottleneck, MIT engineers Ikra Shuvo and Svetlana Boriskina identified a much faster method. Instead of heating the water-absorbing materials to release water, they use high-frequency ultrasonic (超声波的) vibrations (震动) to shake the moisture loose. These sound waves are precisely tuned to break the weak bonds holding water molecules (分子) in place. This targeted disturbance creates enough force to release the water, shaking it out in small drops. The new approach elegantly bypasses the materials’ unyielding nature. “Any material that is very good at absorbing water doesn’t want to part with it,” explains Boriskina. “So you normally need to put a lot of energy into pulling water out.” With ultrasound, this process is completely transformed. Lab tests show this method is about 45 times more efficient than traditional heating, freeing the trapped water in mere minutes. This breakthrough overturns the assumption that AWH systems must absorb moisture overnight and depend on passive sunlight during the day. Powered by a small solar cell, which supplies electricity and also acts as a sensor to detect when the material is wet, the system activates automatically whenever enough water has gathered, allowing the setup to cycle day and night. The project’s ultimate purpose goes far beyond laboratory efficiency. Boriskina notes it could provide a reliable source of drinking water for remote communities lacking freshwater. As global water crises worsen, this innovation offers a ray of hope, which might be a life-saving solution in the thinnest of air. 12. What does the underlined phrase “this bottleneck” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. The lack of water in dry regions. B. The inefficiency of releasing water. C. The huge cost of current devices. D. The poor performance of the materials. 13. In what way is the new AWH system different from the former one? A. It gets rid of the moisture-absorbing materials. B. It has been widely adopted in water-short areas. C. It produces water independent of solar power. D. It no longer has to absorb moisture overnight. 14. What makes the new device activate automatically? A. A sensor detecting wetness. B. Continuous sunlight exposure. C. A water cycling setup. D. Insufficient water absorption. 15. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. The need for further lab research. B. The limits when used in poor areas. C. The practical application potential. D. The improvements over old systems. 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。 Green Is Good Planting and growing things offers a lot more than fresh vegetables and flowers.

Clara walked in quietly. Her shoes stepped on wood shavings (刨花) that sparkled in the sunlight. Through the dusty windows, the morning light shone on Grandfather’s rough hands. He was gluing a maple chair leg. The wall calendar still showed January. Its yellowed pages were curling, just like dry leaves. An open order book lay on the desk. February’s page was empty. There had been no new orders since mid-January. Clara held her breath and filmed Grandfather with her phone. She focused on his quick hands as he measured angles with a metal ruler. “This might help him,” she thought, eager to show how skilled he was. However, when she posted the video online, negative comments flooded in. “Old ways for a dying business!” “No wonder the business is failing!” Saddened, Clara deleted the video quickly. A spider crawled over the empty order book. Its blank pages seemed to tell her that not many people valued handmade things these days. “Want to see my treasure?” Grandpa’s voice broke the silence. He opened a leather album filled with pencil sketches (草图) like library chairs from 1958 and park benches from 1962. A faded photo slipped out: a smiling boy missing two teeth was grinning at the camera, holding a curved (弯曲的) spoon proudly. “Timmy, my former student,” Grandfather smiled, touching the curve of the spoon in the photo. “Now he designs furniture for tall buildings. Last month’s newspaper carried an article about his curved stairs. They were inspired by this very spoon.” He tapped the photo, adding, “Machines make things fast, but hands remember stories.” Clara looked at the photo — the curved spoon, Timmy’s smile, and Grandpa’s young handwriting on the back: Timmy’s first repair, age 7. Beside her, fresh wood shavings were shining. “Stories must be told, not just the work, but the story behind it,” Clara murmured. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Clara set about creating a new video. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A week later, Timmy, now a famous furniture designer, walked into the workshop. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 哈三中2026-2027学年度上学期 高二学年十月月考 英语 试卷 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 1.

I ask them to imagine that they are alone at an old telephone booth in the Mojave Desert. The night is quiet, and there is no one for miles. Suddenly, the phone rings. “Who is calling?” I ask. Students must explain not only who is calling but also why that person has chosen to call them. The idea came from a real telephone booth that once stood in the California desert. Travelers visited it because anyone, from anywhere, might call. Although the booth has disappeared, I wondered whether an unexpected call could open an unexpected conversation. So I turned the idea into a writing task. When I first used it, I expected many kinds of answers. Some students imagined conversations with historical figures; others received calls from grandparents they had never met or strangers asking for help. But one choice appeared again and again: students imagined receiving a call from an older version of themselves. At first, I thought this simply happened by chance. Then the same pattern appeared semester after semester. Curious, I reread dozens of stories, paying attention not to who was calling but to what was being said. The future selves rarely talked about wealth, fame or great success. Instead, they offered words of comfort. They told their younger selves that failure would pass, loneliness would disappear gradually and life would become larger than today’s worries. Then I understood. These imagined callers were not predicting the future. They were giving words to hopes the students already carried but had never expressed. By imagining someone who did not exist, students found a safe way to speak honestly about the lives they were living. The telephone booth, then, is not really the destination. It is a doorway. Sometimes imagination does not take us away from reality; it helps us see it more clearly. The voice we are waiting to hear may have been our own all along. 4. What was the author’s main intention in designing this writing task? A. To honor the desert booth. B. To promote travel in the desert. C. To encourage imaginative writing. D. To analyse students’ inner thoughts. 5. What drew the author’s attention among students’ stories? A. The same kind of caller. B. The absence of grandparents. C. The fear of loneliness. D. The wide variety of answers. 6. Why did the author reread the students’ stories? A. To find writing mistakes. B. To study the repeated pattern. C. To select the best stories. D. To assess their writing skills. 7. What does the telephone booth represent in the text? A. A doorway to escape reality. B. A chance to meet unexpected people. C. A path to self-understanding. D. A symbol of unanswered questions. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. B 7. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了作者给大一学生布置沙漠电话亭想象写作任务。学生大多设想接到未来自己的来电，这一想象帮助他们直面内心，获得自我理解。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Although the booth has disappeared, I wondered whether an unexpected call could open an unexpected conversation. So I turned the idea into a writing task.(尽管电话亭已经消失了，我想知道一通意外来电能否开启一场意想不到的对话。于是我把这个想法设计成一项写作任务。)”可知，作者设计这项写作任务是为鼓励学生进行富有想象力的写作。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“But one choice appeared again and again: students imagined receiving a call from an older version of themselves.(但有一个设想反复出现：学生想象接到年长版自己打来的电话。)”可知，是学生故事里出现的同一类来电者引起了作者的注意。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“At first, I thought this simply happened by chance. Then the same pattern appeared semester after semester. Curious, I reread dozens of stories, paying attention not to who was calling but to what was being said.(起初，我以为这只是偶然发生的事。但这一模式却一学期接一学期出现。出于好奇，我重新读了数十个故事，注意的不是谁在打电话，而是对方说了什么)”可知，作者重读学生的故事是为研究这个反复出现的写作模式。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The telephone booth, then, is not really the destination. It is a doorway. Sometimes imagination does not take us away from reality; it helps us see it more clearly.(所以，电话亭并非真正的终点。它是一扇门。有时候想象不会带我们逃离现实，反而帮助我们更清晰地看清现实。)”可知，文中的电话亭代表通往自我理解的途径。 C Now, artificial intelligence (AI) is coming for the most attractive and exciting jobs. Stars may worry that AI is stealing their work and giving less talented performers the skills to take away their audience. In fact, the famous individuals complaining the most loudly about the new technology are the ones who stand to benefit the most. Far from weakening star power, AI will make the biggest celebrities bigger than ever by allowing them to be in all markets, in all types of media, at all times. This isn’t the first time that technology has changed the rules of the fame game. People started talking about stars in the 18th century when the widespread access to reading materials made it possible to be truly famous within your lifetime. Film and radio originally seemed like a threat to stars, who worried their live performances would be devalued. In fact, those technologies started the era of the superstar, a term that caught on in the 1920s. A similar worry greeted the invention of television. But again, the new tech made the famous even more so, bringing them into every living room. As AI-generated content floods into the entertainment business, artists and entertainment professionals are worrying once more that their fame will be reduced — and again, the outcome is likely to be the opposite. These opportunities come with conditions attached. Artists are right to worry about copyright, which must be protected if AI is not to become a legalised form of piracy (盗版). Until these copyright concerns are addressed, AI will be a legal Wild West. The bigger question is how the age of the all-around superstar will appeal to audiences. The risk is boredom. AI is brilliant at remixing and repeating old material but falls short of creating exciting content that, for now, remains a human specialty. Yet the entertainment market is highly self-correcting. Audiences have the power to turn a hot hit into a has-been one in an instant, as stars are all too aware. While AI-powered entertainment grows, consumers still seem to enjoy human drama. Sport, perhaps the most AI-proof, real-life event there is, has seen its value to media companies rise in recent years. 8. What is the primary concern of stars according to paragraph 1? A. The decline in their popularity. B. The improvement of audience’s taste. C. The low level of their acting skills. D. The ignorance of emerging technology. 9. Why does the author mention “film, radio and television” in paragraph 2? A. To show the difficulties for the stars in the past. B. To prove the techno-panic is common in history. C. To confirm AI will surely come into every family. D. To predict the trend of the technological development. 10. What is the author’s attitude to AI’s capacity of content creation? A. Favourable. B. Unconcerned. C. Ambiguous. D. Skeptical. 11. What might be the best title for the text? A. AI: A Pioneer in Entertainment Industry B. AI: Making Stars Worried or Talented? C. AI: A Creator of Copyright Trouble D. AI: A Threat or A Booster to Stars? 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. D 【解析】 【导语】文章讨论AI对明星的影响，认为AI并非威胁，反而会助推明星发展，同时指出AI创作存在局限与版权问题。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Stars may worry that AI is stealing their work and giving less talented performers the skills to take away their audience.(明星们或许会担心人工智能抢走他们的工作，让天赋稍逊的表演者掌握本领，夺走他们的观众。)”可知，明星主要担心自己人气下降。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Film and radio originally seemed like a threat to stars, who worried their live performances would be devalued. In fact, those technologies started the era of the superstar, a term that caught on in the 1920s. A similar worry greeted the invention of television. But again, the new tech made the famous even more so, bringing them into every living room.(电影与广播最初似乎对明星构成威胁，明星担心自己的现场演出会贬值。但事实上，这些技术开启了巨星时代，“巨星”这个说法在20世纪20年代流行开来。电视问世时，人们也产生过类似的担忧。但结果同样是，这项新技术让名人更加家喻户晓，走进千家万户。)”可知，作者列举电影、广播、电视，证明历史上人们对新技术产生恐慌是常见现象，而最终新技术反而成就巨星。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“AI is brilliant at remixing and repeating old material but falls short of creating exciting content that, for now, remains a human specialty.(人工智能擅长重新组合和重复旧素材，但无法创作出激动人心的内容，目前这仍是人类的专长。)”可知，作者对AI的内容创作能力持怀疑态度。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段“Now, artificial intelligence (AI) is coming for the most attractive and exciting jobs. Stars may worry that AI is stealing their work and giving less talented performers the skills to take away their audience. In fact, the famous individuals complaining the most loudly about the new technology are the ones who stand to benefit the most. Far from weakening star power, AI will make the biggest celebrities bigger than ever by allowing them to be in all markets, in all types of media, at all times.(如今，人工智能（AI）正进军最具吸引力、最光鲜的职业领域。明星们或许会担心人工智能抢走他们的工作，让天赋稍逊的表演者掌握本领，夺走他们的观众。事实上，对这项新技术抱怨声最大的名人，恰恰是最有可能从中获益的群体。人工智能非但不会削弱明星影响力，还能让顶级巨星比以往更火：它让明星能够随时随地出现在各类市场、各种媒体平台之中。)”可知，文章探讨AI究竟是明星的威胁还是助推者。D选项“AI: A Threat or A Booster to Stars?(人工智能：对明星而言是威胁还是助推器？)”概括全文核心。 D Feeling thirsty? Drawing clean water directly from the air is possible, as even extremely dry regions contain some moisture (水汽). Over the past few years, researchers have created sponge-like (海绵状的) materials that make “atmospheric water harvesting” (AWH) possible by absorbing moisture. However, recovering the trapped water usually involves heat and a long wait. Most current systems rely on sunlight to warm these materials. This slow step can take many hours or even stretch into days. To break this bottleneck, MIT engineers Ikra Shuvo and Svetlana Boriskina identified a much faster method. Instead of heating the water-absorbing materials to release water, they use high-frequency ultrasonic (超声波的) vibrations (震动) to shake the moisture loose. These sound waves are precisely tuned to break the weak bonds holding water molecules (分子) in place. This targeted disturbance creates enough force to release the water, shaking it out in small drops. The new approach elegantly bypasses the materials’ unyielding nature. “Any material that is very good at absorbing water doesn’t want to part with it,” explains Boriskina. “So you normally need to put a lot of energy into pulling water out.” With ultrasound, this process is completely transformed. Lab tests show this method is about 45 times more efficient than traditional heating, freeing the trapped water in mere minutes. This breakthrough overturns the assumption that AWH systems must absorb moisture overnight and depend on passive sunlight during the day. Powered by a small solar cell, which supplies electricity and also acts as a sensor to detect when the material is wet, the system activates automatically whenever enough water has gathered, allowing the setup to cycle day and night. The project’s ultimate purpose goes far beyond laboratory efficiency. Boriskina notes it could provide a reliable source of drinking water for remote communities lacking freshwater. As global water crises worsen, this innovation offers a ray of hope, which might be a life-saving solution in the thinnest of air. 12. What does the underlined phrase “this bottleneck” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. The lack of water in dry regions. B. The inefficiency of releasing water. C. The huge cost of current devices. D. The poor performance of the materials. 13. In what way is the new AWH system different from the former one? A. It gets rid of the moisture-absorbing materials. B. It has been widely adopted in water-short areas. C. It produces water independent of solar power. D. It no longer has to absorb moisture overnight. 14. What makes the new device activate automatically? A. A sensor detecting wetness. B. Continuous sunlight exposure. C. A water cycling setup. D. Insufficient water absorption. 15. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. The need for further lab research. B. The limits when used in poor areas. C. The practical application potential. D. The improvements over old systems. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍麻省理工工程师研发新型空气取水技术，利用超声波快速取水，有望解决偏远地区淡水短缺问题。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根根据上第一段“Over the past few years, researchers have created sponge-like (海绵状的) materials that make “atmospheric water harvesting” (AWH) possible by absorbing moisture. However, recovering the trapped water usually involves heat and a long wait. Most current systems rely on sunlight to warm these materials. This slow step can take many hours or even stretch into days.(在过去几年里，研究人员研发出了海绵状材料。这类材料通过吸收水汽，让“大气集水”（AWH）成为可能。然而，提取这些捕获的水分通常需要加热，并且要等待很长时间。目前大多数系统依靠阳光来加热这些材料。这个缓慢的步骤可能需要数小时，甚至会延长至数日。)”和第二段中“To break this bottleneck, MIT engineers Ikra Shuvo and Svetlana Boriskina identified a much faster method.(为突破this bottleneck，麻省理工学院的工程师伊克拉・舒沃与斯维特拉娜・博里斯金娜找到了一种快得多的方法。)”可知，this bottleneck指“释放水的效率低下”。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“This breakthrough overturns the assumption that AWH systems must absorb moisture overnight and depend on passive sunlight during the day.(这一突破推翻了空气取水系统必须通宵吸收水汽、白天依靠被动太阳能的固有认知。)”可知，新系统不再需要通宵吸收水汽。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Powered by a small solar cell, which supplies electricity and also acts as a sensor to detect when the material is wet, the system activates automatically whenever enough water has gathered, allowing the setup to cycle day and night.(该系统由一个小型太阳能电池供电，该电池不仅提供电力，还充当传感器来检测材料何时变湿，只要收集到足够的水，该系统就会自动激活，使设备日夜循环。)”可知，检测湿度的传感器让设备自动启动。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Boriskina notes it could provide a reliable source of drinking water for remote communities lacking freshwater. As global water crises worsen, this innovation offers a ray of hope, which might be a life-saving solution in the thinnest of air.(博里斯基娜指出，这项技术能够为缺乏淡水的偏远社区提供可靠的饮用水源。随着全球水危机不断加剧，这项创新带来了一丝希望，它或许能从稀薄的空气中获取救命的水源。)”可知，本段主要介绍这项技术的实际应用潜力。 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。 Green Is Good Planting and growing things offers a lot more than fresh vegetables and flowers.

The shy speaker tried his best to control his feelings, but the slight trembling of his voice gave him ________. (用适当的词填空) 【答案】away 【解析】 【详解】句意：这位腼腆的演讲者尽力控制自己的情绪，但他声音轻微的颤抖暴露了他。固定搭配give away，表示“泄露，暴露”，所以应填away。 45. The teacher spoke ________ (gentle) to the upset student, trying to lift the mood of the whole class. （所给词的适当形式填空） 【答案】gently 【解析】 【详解】句意：老师温和地对情绪低落的学生说话，努力调动全班的情绪。修饰动词spoke要用副词，gentle的副词形式是gently，表“温和地”。 46.

The old library we visited last year ________ (serve) local residents in the past 80 years. （所给词的适当形式填空） 【答案】has served##has been serving 【解析】 【详解】句意：我们去年参观的这座老图书馆在过去80年里一直为当地居民服务。此空考查谓语动词，The old library与serve为主动关系，时间状语in the past 80 years是现在完成时或现在完成进行时的标志。has served（现在完成时）强调从过去持续到现在的结果；has been serving（现在完成进行时）强调动作80年间持续进行，两种形式语法都成立。 49.

(用适当的词填空) 【答案】to 【解析】 【详解】句意：只要我们以积极的态度面对挑战，我们就可以充实地生活，创造属于我们自己的光明未来。to the full“完全地，充分地”。固定搭配live life to the full“尽情地生活，充实地过好生活”，to为介词。 50.

Her shoes stepped on wood shavings (刨花) that sparkled in the sunlight. Through the dusty windows, the morning light shone on Grandfather’s rough hands. He was gluing a maple chair leg. The wall calendar still showed January. Its yellowed pages were curling, just like dry leaves. An open order book lay on the desk. February’s page was empty. There had been no new orders since mid-January. Clara held her breath and filmed Grandfather with her phone. She focused on his quick hands as he measured angles with a metal ruler. “This might help him,” she thought, eager to show how skilled he was. However, when she posted the video online, negative comments flooded in. “Old ways for a dying business!” “No wonder the business is failing!” Saddened, Clara deleted the video quickly. A spider crawled over the empty order book. Its blank pages seemed to tell her that not many people valued handmade things these days. “Want to see my treasure?” Grandpa’s voice broke the silence. He opened a leather album filled with pencil sketches (草图) like library chairs from 1958 and park benches from 1962. A faded photo slipped out: a smiling boy missing two teeth was grinning at the camera, holding a curved (弯曲的) spoon proudly. “Timmy, my former student,” Grandfather smiled, touching the curve of the spoon in the photo. “Now he designs furniture for tall buildings. Last month’s newspaper carried an article about his curved stairs. They were inspired by this very spoon.” He tapped the photo, adding, “Machines make things fast, but hands remember stories.” Clara looked at the photo — the curved spoon, Timmy’s smile, and Grandpa’s young handwriting on the back: Timmy’s first repair, age 7. Beside her, fresh wood shavings were shining. “Stories must be told, not just the work, but the story behind it,” Clara murmured. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Clara set about creating a new video. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A week later, Timmy, now a famous furniture designer, walked into the workshop. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文 Clara set about creating a new video. This time, her camera captured Timmy’s curved spoon and a yellowed newspaper clipping featuring his iconic stairs. As Grandfather narrated their story, she zoomed in on his wrinkled yet steady hands — shaping wood into art. The video ended with his voice, “Hands remember stories machines forget.” With the video properly edited, she uploaded it online. Soon positive comments poured in. “Hands of a legend!” “Need this magic in my home!” Shares of the video skyrocketed. Amid the flood of praise, Clara spotted a message from Timmy: “I’m coming to see you soon, back to where the magic began!” Her eyes widened at Timmy’s profile picture, the same grin as in that faded photo. A week later, Timmy, now a famous furniture designer, walked into the workshop. He embraced Grandfather, tears glistening. “The spoon taught me curves have souls,” he said, placing the curved spoon on the desk. Together, they designed a signature chair — Timmy sketching modern lines on his tablet while Grandfather penciling his classic curves. Clara captured the moment: their four hands shaping a maple chair leg together, mirroring the one Grandfather had glued a week before. When Timmy posted the video, orders poured in. Wood shavings danced in the sunlight as the workshop came back to life, the order book’s empty February page now filled with March’s growing demands. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了Clara的祖父经营的手工坊生意惨淡，Clara首次上传祖父工作视频遭负面评价后删除。祖父向她展示了皮革相册里学生Timmy的相关物品，讲述Timmy受自己影响成为著名家具设计师的故事，Clara决定再次拍摄视频，这次要分享手工背后的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，本段可以描述新视频的内容，如视频里展现了祖父的哪些故事和技艺，以及该视频发布后在网络上引发的反应，包括网友的评论、分享量等情况。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，本段可以描写Timmy来到工作室后的情节展开，如他与祖父的互动，他们之间的对话、情感交流，以及他们共同做了什么事情，最终对工作室产生了怎样的影响。 2.续写线索：上传新视频→视频引发热烈反响→Timmy看到视频决定拜访→Timmy来到工作室与祖父相聚→两人共同设计椅子→Clara记录时刻→Timmy发布视频→订单涌入，工作室重焕生机 3.词汇激活： 行为类： 发现：spot/discover/detect 拥抱：embrace/hug/enfold 情绪类： 赞扬：praise/compliment 泪光闪闪：tears glistening/tears sparkling 【点睛】[高分句型1] He embraced Grandfather, tears glistening.
