At that time, I was an excellent 400-meter runner at high school, but got it into my head that I should try the longer distance to prove that I was really good at running — and what was better than the marathon? Back then, the running craze hadn’t quite heated up to the point it has today and running a marathon was unknown to most people. Besides, I never knew anyone who had actually run a marathon. On the way from England to Dublin, I was wondering what I was getting myself in two days later when the race would begin. I tried to get some sleep to ease my nerves, but I found it hard. The race day was somewhat cloudy, but the warmth of the people forced the clouds away. My limited memories of that first race remain: the feeling of running through a tunnel (隧道) of people as the crowds lined the streets; the cheers from the crowds as the news came that an Irishman had won the race; what’s the most impressive, the kindness of the crowds encouraging me on as I hit the wall and tried to struggle through. Eventually, I didn’t get the prize, but I never gave up and regarded it as a success because I challenged myself. After my first marathon, I started a website based on my love of running. Whether you’re an experienced marathoner or just an interested passer-by, I invite you to get involved in the website and make it your home. Runners and particularly marathoners seem to share common ideals. They’re part of a global team and a global community. 24．(2.5分)Why did the author take part in his first marathon? A．To show his talent for running. B．To win a prize in. a longer distance race. C．To attract the public's attention to running. D．To express his preference for 400-meter running. 25．(2.5分)What impressed the author deeply during his first marathon? A．He hit the wall and tried to struggle through. B．He ran through a tunnel with other racers. C．He nearly got lost due to the cloudy weather. D．He received lots of encouragement from the crowds. 26．(2.5分)What can we know about the author’s website? A．It aims to help running lovers. B．It has got a lot of attention. C．It attaches great importance to community spirit. D．It was set up mainly for experienced marathoners. 27．(2.5分)Which of the following can best describe the author? A．Kind and creative. B．Capable and positive. C．Proud and ordinary. D．Confused and sensitive. （本题10分）Have you ever wondered what astronauts eat in space and how those recipes (食谱) are developed? Every year, HUNCH challenges high schools around the world to develop delicious recipes to support astronauts in space. The HUNCH Culinary (烹饪的) Competition provides students the opportunity to create dishes for astronauts on the International Space Station (ISS). Students must create tasty recipes following a specific food processing procedure and meeting certain dietary requirements. Each year, high schools receive a theme (主题), and students develop recipes accordingly. Then, student groups present their works to local space centers for taste tests conducted by industry professionals and center staff. After those early competitions, student teams with the highest scores from across the country are invited to Space Center Houston, which has hosted the event for 11 years. During the finals, all visitors to the center are invited to cheer on student groups. This year’s dish theme was traditional Mexican food: tacos. Ten high school culinary teams were selected to compete in the final round of the competition, which celebrated the mix of science and culinary creativity. Their work was judged by Food Lab staff, industry professionals, the ISS program office, and astronauts based on quality, taste, research paper, and presentation video. Space Center Houston President and CEO William T. Harris said students had to consider “the chemistry behind the dish, food preservation, and dietary needs” when making their dishes. He added that the strict limit on salt intake in space makes it difficult to achieve rich taste, so students must find other ways to season their recipes. Through this program, students build culinary skills while developing experience in research and professional presentations. The winning dish will be processed by the Johnson Space Center Food Lab and sent to the ISS for astronauts to enjoy. 28．(2.5分)What happens to the best-performing students after the early competitions? A．They send recipes to the ISS. B．They receive next year’s theme. C．They compete at the host center. D．They get recipes checked by experts. 29．(2.5分)What can we infer about this year’s competition? A．It valued taste over dietary needs. B．It closed the final round to the public. C．It mixed practical and academic work. D．It required individual work in the finals. 30．(2.5分)What makes it hard to create tasty food in space? A．The limited space for cooking. B．The low amount of salt allowed. C．The difficulty in keeping food fresh. D．The strict food processing procedure. 31．(2.5分)What is the main purpose of the text? A．To present challenges in space. B．To promote new food products. C．To announce competition results. D．To introduce a cooking competition. （本题10分）Second place is just the first loser. While the competitive spirit may be as natural as breathing air, it doesn’t always lead to human flourishing and can create misery. Fortunately, there is a formula to solve this problem: instead of always going for gold, shoot for the bronze. Though second place may be the first loser, third place can be the real winner regarding happiness and longevity. In a 1995 study, scholars systematically coded the emotional reactions of silver and bronze medalists in the 1992 Summer Olympic Games. Using slow-motion footage captured both immediately after their events and later on the awards podium (领奖台), researchers found the bronze winners appeared consistently happier on average than the silver medalists. Over 80% of bronze medalists exhibited genuine smiles, a figure that was nearly double that observed among silver medalists. Moreover, every bronze medalist’s smile lasted longer than the average smile observed among the silver medalists. More recent research has looked at the life span of all three medalist categories. A 2018 study found that the athlete whose best performance was silver lived to 72. Gold medalists beat this by four years, living to 76. But first prize in longevity went to the bronze medalists, who lived to 78. The study had a handy explanation for this discrepancy: “Unsatisfactory competition outcomes may adversely affect health.” In other words, silver medalists see themselves as the first loser because they look up to the top step and compare themselves only with the gold medalists, whereas the bronze winners compare themselves favorably with all the others who never made it onto the podium at all. This theory shows the difference between upward and downward social comparison. The worldly happiness strategy of striving for gold every day is foolish. It tends to lower the intrinsic motivation, and thus enjoyment that people obtain from their activities. The principle at work here is trying to improve your own past performance and the only person to whom you will have to compare yourself is you. 32．(2.5分)What can be learned from the 1995 study? A．Both medalists’ emotions were unchanged from the events to the podium. B．Silver medalists smiled as frequently as bronze medalists. C．Bronze medalists’ smiles lasted longer than every silver medalists. D．Bronze winners appeared happier than silver medalists. 33．(2.5分)What is the cause of the difference in medalists’ life span? A．The stress from downward social comparison. B．The effect of different types of social comparison. C．The motivation from upward social comparison. D．The failure to look up to the top after the competition. 34．(2.5分)What does the writer advise us to do to achieve happiness? A．Learn from the top performers. B．Strengthen our achievement motivation. C．Try to be the best in every field. D．Commit to our consistent personal growth. 35．(2.5分)Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A．Social Comparison: A Double-Edged Sword for Athletes B．Coming in Third: The Advantages of Being “Good Enough” C．Coming in Third: The Unexpected Secret to Longevity D．Social Comparison: The Root of Misery in Human Competition （本题12.5分）The Winter Olympics will introduce several new events, with ski mountaineering making its first appearance as a new sport. Known as “skimo”, it requires athletes to hike up a mountain before skiing down. Three events will be held: a women’s sprint, a men’s sprint, and a mixed relay. The competition will take place in Bormio, Italy, at the same site used for Alpine skiing. Other new events are also being added. These are variations of existing sports and aim to give more athletes, especially women, a chance to compete. One such event is dual moguls (雪上技巧). Two skiers compete side by side on a bumpy course, performing aerial (空中的) tricks. 36(2.5分) Traditional moguls have been part of the Winter Games since the 1990s. 37(2.5分) This event pairs one man and one woman from the same country. They race down an ice track head-first on a small sled. This format adds a new dynamic to the sport. This year also marks the first time women’s doubles luge will appear. 38(2.5分) They race down the track feet-first on the same sled. This event highlights the importance of teamwork. It’s not easy for teams to qualify for the Games. The U.S. team narrowly qualified for the Games in a high-stakes race in Utah in early December. 39(2.5分) The pressure was intense, as it was the last chance for teams to earn Olympic ranking points.

He was the best dribbler (运球者) and fastest runner, and every team hoped to have him on their side. However, at his new school in Pune, none of that seemed to matter. Nobody here had ever seen him play before. “Trials are Thursday,” his new coach, Mr. Subramaniam, said on his first day. “Everyone starts equal.” Rohan almost laughed. He’d never had to try out for anything in his life. Thursday came, and so did a surprise. There was a boy named Vihaan who could read the game better than anyone Rohan had ever played with — always in the right space, always one step ahead, even though he wasn’t particularly fast or showy. Rohan, used to being the obvious star, found himself constantly a half-second behind. He misjudged a pass, then another. By the end of trials, he wasn’t sure where he stood anymore. The team list was posted on Friday morning. Rohan scanned it twice before he found his name — not in the starting eleven, but on the bench. Second string (替补队员). “You’ll get your chance,” Mr. Subramaniam said, noticing his face. “Use practice this week to learn from Vihaan. He sees things most boys your age don’t.” Rohan wanted to feel annoyed. Instead, watching Vihaan during practice that week, he found himself actually paying attention — really watching, the way he didn’t need to at his old school. He noticed Vihaan checking his shoulder before every pass. He noticed how he never panicked, even under pressure, just moved the ball simply and smartly to someone better placed.

At that time, I was an excellent 400-meter runner at high school, but got it into my head that I should try the longer distance to prove that I was really good at running — and what was better than the marathon? Back then, the running craze hadn’t quite heated up to the point it has today and running a marathon was unknown to most people. Besides, I never knew anyone who had actually run a marathon. On the way from England to Dublin, I was wondering what I was getting myself in two days later when the race would begin. I tried to get some sleep to ease my nerves, but I found it hard. The race day was somewhat cloudy, but the warmth of the people forced the clouds away. My limited memories of that first race remain: the feeling of running through a tunnel (隧道) of people as the crowds lined the streets; the cheers from the crowds as the news came that an Irishman had won the race; what’s the most impressive, the kindness of the crowds encouraging me on as I hit the wall and tried to struggle through. Eventually, I didn’t get the prize, but I never gave up and regarded it as a success because I challenged myself. After my first marathon, I started a website based on my love of running. Whether you’re an experienced marathoner or just an interested passer-by, I invite you to get involved in the website and make it your home. Runners and particularly marathoners seem to share common ideals. They’re part of a global team and a global community. 24．(2.5分)Why did the author take part in his first marathon?

D．Confused and sensitive. 【答案】24．A 25．D 26．C 27．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者18岁时参加第一次马拉松的经历。虽然目的是证明自己长跑能力，但最难忘的是比赛中受到观众的鼓励，这激发了他挑战自我的精神。之后，作者创建了一个跑步网站，旨在连接全球跑者，分享共同的理想和社区精神。 【详解】24．细节理解题。根据第一段中的“At that time, I was an excellent 400-meter runner at high school, but got it into my head that I should try the longer distance to prove that I was really good at running — and what was better than the marathon? (当时，我在高中是一名优秀的400米跑步运动员，但我脑子里想着我应该尝试更长的距离来证明我真的很擅长跑步——还有什么比马拉松更好的呢？)”可知，作者参加第一次马拉松是为了展示自己跑步的天赋，证明自己擅长跑步。故选A。 25．细节理解题。根据第四段中的“what’s the most impressive, the kindness of the crowds encouraging me on as I hit the wall and tried to struggle through.

Every year, HUNCH challenges high schools around the world to develop delicious recipes to support astronauts in space. The HUNCH Culinary (烹饪的) Competition provides students the opportunity to create dishes for astronauts on the International Space Station (ISS). Students must create tasty recipes following a specific food processing procedure and meeting certain dietary requirements. Each year, high schools receive a theme (主题), and students develop recipes accordingly. Then, student groups present their works to local space centers for taste tests conducted by industry professionals and center staff. After those early competitions, student teams with the highest scores from across the country are invited to Space Center Houston, which has hosted the event for 11 years. During the finals, all visitors to the center are invited to cheer on student groups. This year’s dish theme was traditional Mexican food: tacos. Ten high school culinary teams were selected to compete in the final round of the competition, which celebrated the mix of science and culinary creativity. Their work was judged by Food Lab staff, industry professionals, the ISS program office, and astronauts based on quality, taste, research paper, and presentation video. Space Center Houston President and CEO William T. Harris said students had to consider “the chemistry behind the dish, food preservation, and dietary needs” when making their dishes. He added that the strict limit on salt intake in space makes it difficult to achieve rich taste, so students must find other ways to season their recipes. Through this program, students build culinary skills while developing experience in research and professional presentations. The winning dish will be processed by the Johnson Space Center Food Lab and sent to the ISS for astronauts to enjoy. 28．(2.5分)What happens to the best-performing students after the early competitions? A．They send recipes to the ISS. B．They receive next year’s theme. C．They compete at the host center. D．They get recipes checked by experts. 29．(2.5分)What can we infer about this year’s competition? A．It valued taste over dietary needs. B．It closed the final round to the public. C．It mixed practical and academic work. D．It required individual work in the finals. 30．(2.5分)What makes it hard to create tasty food in space? A．The limited space for cooking. B．The low amount of salt allowed. C．The difficulty in keeping food fresh. D．The strict food processing procedure. 31．(2.5分)What is the main purpose of the text? A．To present challenges in space. B．To promote new food products. C．To announce competition results. D．To introduce a cooking competition. 【答案】28．C 29．C 30．B 31．D 【导语】文章主要介绍了面向全球高中生举办的HUNCH烹饪大赛，该赛事号召高中生开发符合要求的太空食谱，供国际空间站宇航员食用，文章介绍了赛事的举办流程、今年赛事的相关内容以及举办该赛事的意义。 【详解】28．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“After those early competitions, student teams with the highest scores from across the country are invited to Space Center Houston, which has hosted the event for 11 years.(在初赛结束后，全国各地得分最高的学生队伍会被邀请至已经主办该赛事11年的休斯顿航天中心。)”可知，表现最好的学生会前往主办中心参加比赛。 29．推理判断题。根据文章第三段“...which celebrated the mix of science and culinary creativity. Their work was judged by Food Lab staff, industry professionals, the ISS program office, and astronauts based on quality, taste, research paper, and presentation video.(……该赛事融合了科学与烹饪创造力。参赛作品会由食品实验室工作人员、行业专家、国际空间站项目办公室和宇航员根据菜品品质、口味、研究论文和展示视频进行评分。)”，结合第五段“Through this program, students build culinary skills while developing experience in research and professional presentations.(通过该项目，学生们在锻炼烹饪技能的同时，也积累了研究和专业展示的经验。)”可知，今年的比赛结合了实践操作与学术工作。 30．细节理解题。根据文章第四段“He added that the strict limit on salt intake in space makes it difficult to achieve rich taste, so students must find other ways to season their recipes.(他补充说，太空中严格的盐摄入限制使得食物很难拥有浓郁的风味，因此学生必须找到其他方法来给食谱调味。)”可知，允许摄入的盐量低导致太空美食难以制作。 31．推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章围绕HUNCH烹饪大赛展开，介绍了该赛事的创办目的、举办流程、相关要求等内容，因此本文的主要目的是介绍这项烹饪比赛。 （本题10分）Second place is just the first loser. While the competitive spirit may be as natural as breathing air, it doesn’t always lead to human flourishing and can create misery. Fortunately, there is a formula to solve this problem: instead of always going for gold, shoot for the bronze. Though second place may be the first loser, third place can be the real winner regarding happiness and longevity. In a 1995 study, scholars systematically coded the emotional reactions of silver and bronze medalists in the 1992 Summer Olympic Games. Using slow-motion footage captured both immediately after their events and later on the awards podium (领奖台), researchers found the bronze winners appeared consistently happier on average than the silver medalists. Over 80% of bronze medalists exhibited genuine smiles, a figure that was nearly double that observed among silver medalists. Moreover, every bronze medalist’s smile lasted longer than the average smile observed among the silver medalists. More recent research has looked at the life span of all three medalist categories. A 2018 study found that the athlete whose best performance was silver lived to 72. Gold medalists beat this by four years, living to 76. But first prize in longevity went to the bronze medalists, who lived to 78. The study had a handy explanation for this discrepancy: “Unsatisfactory competition outcomes may adversely affect health.” In other words, silver medalists see themselves as the first loser because they look up to the top step and compare themselves only with the gold medalists, whereas the bronze winners compare themselves favorably with all the others who never made it onto the podium at all. This theory shows the difference between upward and downward social comparison. The worldly happiness strategy of striving for gold every day is foolish. It tends to lower the intrinsic motivation, and thus enjoyment that people obtain from their activities. The principle at work here is trying to improve your own past performance and the only person to whom you will have to compare yourself is you. 32．(2.5分)What can be learned from the 1995 study? A．Both medalists’ emotions were unchanged from the events to the podium. B．Silver medalists smiled as frequently as bronze medalists. C．Bronze medalists’ smiles lasted longer than every silver medalists. D．Bronze winners appeared happier than silver medalists. 33．(2.5分)What is the cause of the difference in medalists’ life span? A．The stress from downward social comparison. B．The effect of different types of social comparison. C．The motivation from upward social comparison. D．The failure to look up to the top after the competition. 34．(2.5分)What does the writer advise us to do to achieve happiness? A．Learn from the top performers. B．Strengthen our achievement motivation. C．Try to be the best in every field. D．Commit to our consistent personal growth. 35．(2.5分)Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A．Social Comparison: A Double-Edged Sword for Athletes B．Coming in Third: The Advantages of Being “Good Enough” C．Coming in Third: The Unexpected Secret to Longevity D．Social Comparison: The Root of Misery in Human Competition 【答案】32．D 33．B 34．D 35．B 【导语】文章通过奥运奖牌研究，指出铜牌得主比银牌得主更幸福长寿，并建议人们放下争第一的执念，专注于自我成长。 【详解】32．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Using slow-motion footage captured both immediately after their events and later on the awards podium (领奖台), researchers found the bronze winners appeared consistently happier on average than the silver medalists. (通过分别在比赛刚结束时以及之后颁奖台上拍摄的慢镜头，研究人员发现铜牌获得者平均来看始终显得比银牌获得者更开心。)”可知，该研究发现铜牌得主看起来比银牌得主更快乐。 33．细节理解题。根据第三段中“In other words, silver medalists see themselves as the first loser because they look up to the top step and compare themselves only with the gold medalists, whereas the bronze winners compare themselves favorably with all the others who never made it onto the podium at all. This theory shows the difference between upward and downward social comparison. (换句话说，银牌得主把自己视为第一失败者，因为他们仰望最高领奖台，只与金牌得主比较；而铜牌得主则会和所有根本没能站上领奖台的人进行更有利的自我比较。这一理论显示了向上社会比较与向下社会比较之间的差异。)”可知，这种寿命差异的原因在于不同社会比较类型的影响。 34．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The principle at work here is trying to improve your own past performance and the only person to whom you will have to compare yourself is you. (这里适用的原则是努力提升你过去的表现，而唯一需要与之比较的人，就是你自己。)”可知，作者建议我们致力于持续的个人成长。 35．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“Fortunately, there is a formula to solve this problem: instead of always going for gold, shoot for the bronze. (幸运的是，这个问题有一个解决方法：与其总是追求金牌，不如争取铜牌。)”可知，文章基于奥运奖牌研究，指出获得铜牌的优势，建议采纳铜牌代表的人生智慧——满足于“足够好”，并专注于自我成长。因此，“获得第三名：‘足够好’的优势”最契合文章主旨，适合作为文章标题。 （本题12.5分）The Winter Olympics will introduce several new events, with ski mountaineering making its first appearance as a new sport. Known as “skimo”, it requires athletes to hike up a mountain before skiing down. Three events will be held: a women’s sprint, a men’s sprint, and a mixed relay. The competition will take place in Bormio, Italy, at the same site used for Alpine skiing. Other new events are also being added. These are variations of existing sports and aim to give more athletes, especially women, a chance to compete. One such event is dual moguls (雪上技巧). Two skiers compete side by side on a bumpy course, performing aerial (空中的) tricks. 36(2.5分) Traditional moguls have been part of the Winter Games since the 1990s. 37(2.5分) This event pairs one man and one woman from the same country. They race down an ice track head-first on a small sled. This format adds a new dynamic to the sport. This year also marks the first time women’s doubles luge will appear. 38(2.5分) They race down the track feet-first on the same sled. This event highlights the importance of teamwork. It’s not easy for teams to qualify for the Games. The U.S. team narrowly qualified for the Games in a high-stakes race in Utah in early December. 39(2.5分) The pressure was intense, as it was the last chance for teams to earn Olympic ranking points. These additions show the Winter Olympics’ commitment to evolution and inclusion. 40(2.5分) They also bring fresh excitement to the Games, attracting new audiences and showcasing the athletes’ skills. A．Another new event is mixed team skeleton. B．Two women from the same country team up on a single sled. C．Athletes must navigate sharp turns and maintain high speeds. D．Ski mountaineering requires both endurance and technical skill. E．Both men’s and women’s dual moguls will be featured this year. F．This was the final opportunity for teams to secure their spot in the Olympics. G．They offer a platform for athletes to demonstrate their abilities in new formats. 【答案】36．E 37．A 38．B 39．F 40．G 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了冬奥会新增的多个比赛项目（如滑雪登山、双人雪上技巧、混合团体钢架雪车、女子双人无舵雪橇），讲述了项目特点与队伍的奥运资格获取过程，并说明这些新项目让冬奥会更具创新性、包容性和观赏性。 【详解】36．前文“One such event is dual moguls.

They race down an ice track head-first on a small sled. This format adds a new dynamic to the sport.(这项赛事将来自同一国家的一男一女选手配对在一起。他们头朝前俯卧在一辆小型钢架雪车上，在冰道上疾驰而下。这种形式为这项运动增添了新的活力。)”可知，该段在介绍一项新的比赛项目，且为男女混合项目。选项A“Another new event is mixed team skeleton.(另一项新增项目是混合团体钢架雪车。)”符合项目描述。故选A项。 38．根据前文“This year also marks the first time women’s doubles luge will appear.(今年也是女子双人雪橇项目首次亮相的一年。)”可知，该部分讲述“女子双人雪橇项目”，设空处应讲述其具体规则。选项B“Two women from the same country team up on a single sled.(两名来自同一国家的女子一起坐在一张雪橇上。)”符合对女子双人雪橇的项目的规则描述，与前文衔接自然。故选B项。 39．前文“The U.S. team narrowly qualified for the Games in a high-stakes race in Utah in early December.(美国队在12月初于犹他州举行的一场竞争激烈的比赛中以微弱优势成功获得了参赛资格。)”提及美国队在12月犹他州的关键赛事中惊险晋级，获得冬奥会比赛资格，由此推知，设空处应是需要将12月犹他州的关键赛事与冬奥会关联表述一下，以使读者更加清晰。选项F“This was the final opportunity for teams to secure their spot in the Olympics.(这（赛事）是各队确保获得奥运会参赛资格的最后机会了。)”中“This”指代前文犹他州赛事，解释了其与冬奥会的关系，符合语境。故选F项。 40．前文“These additions show the Winter Olympics’ commitment to evolution and inclusion.(这些新增内容彰显了冬奥会对于不断发展和包容性的追求。)”提出了新增项目体现了冬奥会的发展与包容性，设空处应继续补充新增项目的其他积极意义。选项G“They offer a platform for athletes to demonstrate their abilities in new formats.(它们为运动员提供了一个展示自身能力的新平台，让他们的表现以全新的形式呈现出来。)”为积极意义表述，主语“They”呼应前文主语“These additions”，在句意上承接前文主题，符合逻辑。故选G项。 三、完形填空 （本题15分）The turning point of my college football career came early in my third year.

He was the best dribbler (运球者) and fastest runner, and every team hoped to have him on their side. However, at his new school in Pune, none of that seemed to matter. Nobody here had ever seen him play before. “Trials are Thursday,” his new coach, Mr. Subramaniam, said on his first day. “Everyone starts equal.” Rohan almost laughed. He’d never had to try out for anything in his life. Thursday came, and so did a surprise. There was a boy named Vihaan who could read the game better than anyone Rohan had ever played with — always in the right space, always one step ahead, even though he wasn’t particularly fast or showy. Rohan, used to being the obvious star, found himself constantly a half-second behind. He misjudged a pass, then another. By the end of trials, he wasn’t sure where he stood anymore. The team list was posted on Friday morning. Rohan scanned it twice before he found his name — not in the starting eleven, but on the bench. Second string (替补队员). “You’ll get your chance,” Mr. Subramaniam said, noticing his face. “Use practice this week to learn from Vihaan. He sees things most boys your age don’t.” Rohan wanted to feel annoyed. Instead, watching Vihaan during practice that week, he found himself actually paying attention — really watching, the way he didn’t need to at his old school. He noticed Vihaan checking his shoulder before every pass. He noticed how he never panicked, even under pressure, just moved the ball simply and smartly to someone better placed. By watching and learning from this teammate, he discovered a new way of playing. By Saturday’s match, Rohan came on as a substitute in the second half, his team down by one goal. 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。 He didn’t try to be the star this time. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ But Vihaan jogged over, smiling broadly, and embraced Rohan warmly. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 He didn’t try to be the star this time. He checked his shoulder, the way Vihaan did. He found the meaning of the simple pass instead of the showy run. He felt a connection with his team, knowing exactly when to pass, when to make his decisions. With ten minutes left, he slipped a quiet, perfectly timed pass through to a teammate, who scored a goal that was important in helping them turn the game around. People at the gym cheered for the teammate loudly. Nobody noticed Rohan. Nobody chanted his name. But Vihaan jogged over, smiling broadly, and embraced Rohan warmly. “Good ball,” Vihaan said. “Learned it from you,” Rohan said, and meant it completely. Rohan no longer cared about being the center of attention as he used to. Walking side by side with Vihaan off the field, he sincerely told Vihaan he owed the brilliant assist to his guidance. Walking home that evening, Rohan realised something: being the best had once felt like the whole point. Being useful, it turned out, felt better. 【导语】本文以Rohan转学后从球队明星变为替补的经历为线索展开，讲述了Rohan在新学校试训中被Vihaan超越，被列为替补后听从教练建议向Vihaan学习，逐渐领悟团队配合与简单传球的价值。周六比赛中，Rohan作为替补上场。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句可知，第一段可描写Rohan上场后不再追求个人表现，而是模仿Vihaan的观察方式，以简单精准的传球串联球队，最终助攻队友进球扭转局势，但观众只为进球队友欢呼，无人注意到Rohan。 ②由第二段首句可知，第二段可描写Vihaan主动跑来热情拥抱Rohan并称赞他的传球，Rohan真诚表示从Vihaan身上学到了很多。他不再在意成为焦点，领悟到“有用”比“最强”更让人满足。 2. 续写线索：上场不争明星——观察后传球——助攻得分——无人注意——Vihaan拥抱称赞——真诚回应——领悟“有用”胜于“最强” 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①注意：notice/pay attention to ②意识到：realise/be aware of 情绪类 ①真诚：sincerely/genuinely ②欢呼：cheer/hail 【点睛】[高分句型1] With ten minutes left, he slipped a quiet, perfectly timed pass through to a teammate, who scored a goal that was important in helping them turn the game around. (运用了with复合结构作伴随状语、who引导的非限制性定语从句和that引导的限制性定语从句) [高分句型2] Walking side by side with Vihaan off the field, he sincerely told Vihaan he owed the brilliant assist to his guidance.
