This year's Harbin Ice-Snow World opens on 20 December and runs into late February, built with ice cut from the frozen river itself. The park covers 1,000,000 square metres and drew more than three million visitors last winter.

B Zheng Qinwen became the first Chinese woman to win the China Open by beating Mirra Andreeva in Beijing. Entering the tournament (锦标赛) as a wildcard (外卡) and ranking world number 54, Zheng saved three set points in the opening set on Sunday before beating Andreeva 7-5 6-4. The 24-year-old fell to the floor after winning match point and treated the cheerful home crowd to some karaoke following her victory speech. "The feeling was incredible. Winning here before my home crowd is one of my dreams, she said. "I've been through a very tough year." Having had elbow surgery last year, Zheng claimed her first WTA 1000 title, ending a two-year title drought after struggling with form and fitness over the past months The Russian led 2-0 in both sets and 5-4 in the first, yet Zheng saved three set points to take the opener 7-5. With the second set tied at 4-4, Zheng gradually gained control. The crowd was enthusiastic, though sometimes disruptive between points. A late double fault from Zheng briefly threatened to derail a special occasion for Chinese tennis. However, she kept calm and secured the win with an ace (发球得分). “I felt like I just forgot how to compete after coming back from injury," she told reporters. "Finally, after so many losses, I found my fire again," she said. This victory marks her 14th win over a top 10 opponent and her third this season. Despite the loss, Andreeva is expected to rise to number three in the world when the rankings are updated on Monday. Zheng is set to leap up 31 spots to number 23 and will compete at Wuhan Open on Tuesday. “I'm hungry for what's ahead. I just want to give everything," Zheng added.24. What can we learn about Zheng from the passage A. She never fell behind in the first set. B. She overcame difficulties to win the game. C. She got the title two years after her surgery. D. She sang karaoke before her victory speech. 25. Which of the following can best describe Zheng Qinwen? A. talented and modest B. tough and ambitious C. cautious and curious. D. generous and easy-going 26.What do Zheng's words imply in the last paragraph? A. She rises to future challenges with wholehearted devotion. B. She will give up the Wuhan Open because she is worn out. C. She is upset about the demanding year she has experienced D. She hopes that her ranking can jump to number 23 very soon 27. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. A personal journal. B. A history textbook C. A science magazine D. A sports news website C On a Wednesday evening, a group of women gather at Mimi's Needlepoint in Dallas, sewing on fabric and chatting over tea. What began as an online craft design business by Madeline Alford and her cousin has grown into a popular meeting place, a so-called "third place," meaning somewhere between home and work, where people connect and get a break from screens. This scene reflects a growing trend across America: young people are turning to“old-school" hobbies -knitting, needlepoint, bird-watching, bread-baking - as a way to stop scrolling and reconnect with the real world. And it's not just Dallas Robert Waldinger, who directs the Harvard Study of Adult Development, is not surprised. He argues that the digital age has left us more connected online yet lonelier offline, and that constant uncertainty about what is real online makes face-to-face contact more valuable than ever. "I see with my eyes," he says. "It is real." Lindsay Degen's story is far from unique. After studying fabric design, she felt separated at home during the pandemic and started a knitting club on Zoom; it later grew into Knit Club, a physical store in Rhode Island hosting free sewing meetings twice a week. “All Crafters Welcome!" is the slogan, and the club draws everyone from college students to people in their seventies. "Knitting together is a great way to make adult friends, "Degen says. "Because making adult friends is hard." Similar groups have sprung up across the country, from CreativeMornings' monthly breakfast lectures in 252 cities to Nelson Luna's casual photowalk club in New York This is more than a passing craze. A 2023 study in Nature Medicine found that people with at least one hobby report fewer symptoms of depression and higher life satisfaction; research in the Journal of Global Health revealed that adults with regular hobbies have a 29% lower risk of death. The benefits, researchers note, aren't limited to one age group or one hobby. So are people rejecting technology? Not exactly; social media is how many of these hobbies first found their audience. What people are rejecting is being always online, always letting an algorithm choose what to watch next. Do we really recognize what it costs us as a society when we can easily make a friend through an app but struggle to start a conversation on our own street? This return to offline life has it right: it's time to think differently about the space outside your front door - the corner coffee shop, the weekly knitting circle, the sidewalk where you stop to talk 28. What does "third place" refer to? A. An online platform for sharing ideas. B. A physical store selling craft supplies. C.A community center run by the government. D. An offline space for face-to-face connection 29. What does Waldinger's statement suggest? A. Real-life contact is losing its appeal B. Real contact offers a sense of certainty C. Online connections make people feel lonely. D. The internet makes people avoid in-person meetings 30. What does the underlined word "craze" probably mean? A. A health problem C. A temporary fashion B. A cultural tradition. D. A well-designed project 31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. The Power of the "Third Place" B. The Difficulty of Adult Friendship C. Old-School Hobbies Make a Comeback D. The Hidden Cost of Constant Connectivity D Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) have frequently made news for all the wrong reasons. Packaged foods such as cereals, crackers, sweet-salty snacks and frozen entrees fill supermarket shelves across America. A large percentage of calories American adults consume come from ultra-processed products. For children, the figure is even higher, reaching an alarming 67%. These convenience foods have become deeply rooted in daily diets, raising concerns among health professionals "Ultra-processed foods are a very significant health issue," says Stephen Devries, MD, a preventive cardiologist at Harvard. He points out their double whammy: very little nutritional value paired with excess sugar, salt, and additives () that we often know very little about or that we do know are harmful. Studies show high consumption links to more than 30 health conditions, including high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, cancer, type 2 diabetes, obesity, cognitive impairment and stroke. Despite these risks, people are drawn to them because manufacturers () design them to be cheap, convenient and almost addictive Crucially, processing does not equal ultra-processing. Processed foods keep their original form with minor treatments - frozen strawberries are washed, cut and frozen to preserve nutrition, with no harmful extras. But they become ultra-processed when made into jam loaded with high-fructose corn syrup and artificial additives. Other healthy processed foods include tofu, olive oil, canned fish and plain yogurt. In contrast, UPFs are industrial formulations () far from their original raw materials. Dr. Devries offers an informal rule: if your grandparents would not recognize it as food, it is likely ultra-processed. However, this distinction confuses shoppers, as many products appearing healthy - such as granola bars, fruit-flavored yogurts and energy drinks - are actually UPFs. To address this, experts offer practical advice. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans encourage people to eat "real food": whole or minimally processed, recognizable as food, made with few ingredients and free of added sugars and artificial flavors. Christopher Gardner, a nutrition scientist at Stanford, suggests judging the purpose of additives; many "cosmetic additives" are added not for nutrition but to mislead consumers. Dr. Devries shares a simpler rule: the closer food stays to its natural state, the healthier it is - the healthiest foods do not even need labels: fresh produce, beans and whole grains. Ultimately, simply telling people to cut out UPFs is not enough; they need healthier replacements, and as public awareness rises, manufacturers are beginning to adjust their products 32. Why is "67%" mentioned in paragraph 1? A. To explain the cause of childhood obesity B. To show children's high UPF consumption C. To compare diets between adults and children D. To prove adults' preference for packaged foods 33. In the "double whammy," the additives are described as A. harmful but necessary. B. neither used nor tested. C. both nutritious and safe D. either ignorant or damaging 34. Which of the following belongs to ultra-processed foods (UPFs)? A. Fruit-flavored milk B. Frozen strawberries C. Typical Canned fish. D. Plain and pure yogurt. 35. What does Christopher Gardner suggest consumers care about? A. The reasons why additives are added B. The country where the food is produced. C. The brand reputation of the manufacturer D. The quantity of calories contained in the food .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。 Many students regard breaks as time wasted - something they should avoid or feel guilty about. 36 In fact, research shows that breaks are a necessary part of effective studying, and skipping them can quietly harm the study hours you are proud of 37 Stare at any demanding task long enough and your performance falls. In one study, people worked on a fifty-minute attention-heavy task; most groups' performance dropped steadily, but a group given two brief switches to an unrelated task held steady the whole time. Interestingly, the brain does not "run out of" attention like a battery; instead, it gets used to the task. _38_ This is why even a two-minute change of activity can help you stay focused for the whole afternoon However, not all breaks are equal. 39 A walk outside, a look at green plants, or eating away from your desk can truly refresh your attention. Turning from your textbook to a screen full of social posts, by contrast, is a change of scene - but hardly a real break, since it demands the same kind of attention Timing and length also matter. Performance on demanding tasks falls within about an hour of continuous work, so breaks every 25 to 50 minutes fit the evidence. Short breaks of five to ten minutes work well; after every two or three blocks, a longer rest of 20 to 30 minutes can cover meals, movement, or even a short nap. Two principles count more than exact numbers: decide a break's length before it starts, and end it while getting back to work still feels easy. Some break choices, however, cost more than they restore. Social posts are one common trap: they catch exactly the attention you are trying to recover, and their endless updates can turn five minutes into fifty. -40 A. Why does your focus drop so easily? B. Taking a break is a sign of weakness. C. But this view is scientifically incorrect. D. Does a longer break always work better? E. Switch to something else, and it will feel fresh again F. Skipping breaks altogether is another common trap that ruins your focus. G. A good break should be unlike studying, calling for a different type of attention. 第三部分语言运用(共两节，满分30分)第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 It was 11 p.m. on a Sunday, and I was still scrolling. A classmate had 41 a photo of her perfect study desk: color-coded notes, a half-finished essay, a cup of tea. The title read,"Quiet study. No excuses." I looked at my own desk -messy worksheets, a phone I couldn't42 -and felt a familiar 43 feeling. This wasn't the first time. Lately, every scroll seemed to 44 the same way: someone was always doing more, doing it better, and doing it with a calm I admired. I knew comparison was "bad for me," but knowing that did not make the feeling 45 The next morning, my friend Maya asked why I looked 46.I told her the truth. She paused, then said something I didn't 47:"You know her notes are probably a(n) 48 for the photo, right? She posted three 49 before that one." I laughed -not because it was funny, but because I had never once considered that the image might be a_50_ rather than a fact. That small chat changed how I read the 51 I get. I still scroll, and I still catch myself measuring. But I now ask a _52 question before the sinking feeling arrives: Is this someone's life, or someone's edit? Growth, I am _53_, is not about never comparing. It is about noticing _54 comparison stops being information and starts being a story I tell myself about my own imperfection and_55_, more often than before, not to believe that story. 41.

To date, the trend 57 (take) on a life of its own, with people adding their own twists and even artificial intelligence-generated _58_ (character) to add to the fun.59 these two seemingly unusual moves are no internet inventions. Both originate from traditional Chinese folk dance moves and 60 (film) years ago as part of the Beijing Dance Academy's teaching material. Now, the clips are being seen well 61_ China. As the United States-based Martha Graham Dance Company prepares to perform in the country in November, principal dancers Xin Ying and Lloyd Knight have joined the trend, showing off their own versions of the moves The unexpected 62_ (popular) of the moves has brought fresh attention to Chinese folk dance.

Yet my understanding of it changed completely after I moved back to my hometown. One day, while walking my dog, I encountered Grandpa Nicholas, who lived in the same village. He held a litter picker in one hand and a bag stuffed with rubbish in the other, cleaning waste from the village canal. He spent roughly an hour on it every day, no matter how hard the rubbish was to reach. He would even risk slipping into the water to remove floating rubbish At first, I didn't understand his behaviour. “Why bother, Grandpa?" I asked. “The rubbish will come back tomorrow." To my mind, those bits of floating waste were hardly worth such personal risk. What troubled me more was the villagers' gossip. Some said he was meddling in things that were none of his business; some laughed at him for his thankless labour; others whispered that he only wanted to show off. Grandpa never argued back. He just kept picking rubbish day in and day out, wearing his usual calm smile. One morning, Grandpa called over to me. "Come and give me a hand, will you?" I hesitated at first, making excuses about schoolwork. Since I had to walk my dog anyway, I dragged my feet and went along with him. Yet that hour by the canal changed something in me. Gradually, I found myself heading for the canal on purpose when walking the dog, picking up bottles along the way. One weekend, Grandpa bought me my very own litter picker On one occasion, I even spent an entire afternoon straightening up the young trees blown down in the village. It felt odd, yet deeply rewarding. 注意: (1)字数应为150左右 (2)请按如下格式在答题纸相应位置作 One afternoon after a heavy storm, I offered to go along the canal with Grandpa. Watching Grandpa's devoted figure, the villagers fell silent 2026-2027学年度高二上学期期中检测参考答案 1-5： AACCA 6-10： AABBC 11-15： BACAC 16-20： BBCBC 21-23：CAC 24-27：BBAD 28-31：DBCC 32-35：BDAA 36-40： CAEGF 41-45：ABBAD 46-50：CDACD 51-55：BBCAD 56. inspiring 57. has taken 58. characters 59.

B 考点：细节理解题 解析：原文第一段“A large percentage of calories American adults consume come from ultra-processed products. For children, the figure is even higher, reaching an alarming 67%.”，67%这个数据是用来表明儿童摄入的热量中超加工食品占比很高。A错误：本段并没有解释儿童肥胖的成因；C错误，对比成人只是铺垫，举例67%的核心目的不是对比二者饮食，而是突出儿童的高摄入量；D错误，中心对象是儿童而非成年人对包装食品的偏好。故选B。 33. D 考点：细节理解题 解析：定位原文第二段“their double whammy: very little nutritional value paired with excess sugar, salt, and additives that we often know very little about or that we do know are harmful”，这些添加剂要么我们了解甚少，要么已知是有害的，对应either ignorant or damaging。A错误，文中没有说添加剂是必要的；B错误，无信息说明添加剂没有经过检测；C错误，和原文表述相反。故选D。 34. A 考点：推理判断题 解析：根据第三段信息：frozen strawberries、canned fish、plain yogurt都属于普通加工食品；而很多看似健康的产品实际是超加工食品，例如果味酸奶（fruit-flavored yogurts），fruit-flavored milk（果味奶）同理，含有额外添加糖、人工调味剂，属于超加工食品。B、C、D三项原文明确归为健康的加工食品，不属于UPFs。故选A。 35. A 考点：细节理解题 解析：定位最后一段“Christopher Gardner, a nutrition scientist at Stanford, suggests judging the purpose of additives; many “cosmetic additives” are added not for nutrition but to mislead consumers.” 他建议消费者判断添加剂添加的目的（原因）。 【七选五】 内容概要： 本文是一篇学习方法类说明文。很多学生认为休息是浪费时间，但是研究证明休息是高效学习必不可少的一环。文章解释注意力下降的原理，区分有效休息和无效休息，介绍休息的时机、时长，同时提醒大家避开社交媒体等休息陷阱。 逐题解析： 36. C 解析：前文提到很多学生认为休息是浪费时间，后文“In fact, research shows that breaks are a necessary part of effective studying…”转折说明休息对学习很有必要。C选项“But this view is scientifically incorrect.”（但是这个观点在科学上是错误的）起到承上启下的转折作用，this view指代前面学生的错误看法。A错误：此处还没有开始解释注意力下降的原因；B错误，B就是学生的错误观点，和后文逻辑冲突；D无对应上下文。故选C。 37. A 解析：空后整段解释长时间学习后注意力、表现会下滑，并用实验来解释背后的原理。A选项“Why does your focus drop so easily?”（为什么你的注意力这么容易下降？）是设问句，引出下文的原理阐释，统领本段。B、D和本段内容不匹配。故选A。 38. E 解析：前文“the brain does not ‘run out of’ attention like a battery; instead, it gets used to the task.”说明大脑不是注意力耗尽，而是对当前任务产生适应、习惯了；后文“This is why even a two-minute change of activity can help you stay focused…”说明换个活动就可以恢复专注。E选项“Switch to something else, and it will feel fresh again.”（换一件别的事，大脑就会重新感到新鲜）承接上文逻辑。故选E。 39. G 解析：本段主旨：不是所有休息效果都一样。后文对比：出门散步、看绿植是好的休息；刷社交媒体屏幕并不是真正休息，因为它需要同类注意力。G选项“A good break should be unlike studying, calling for a different type of attention.”（好的休息应当和学习不一样，需要另一种类型的注意力），总领本段，引出后文正反例子。故选G。 40. F 解析：前文介绍第一个陷阱：刷社交媒体会偷走注意力，五分钟变成五十分钟。F选项“Skipping breaks altogether is another common trap that ruins your focus.”（完全不休息是另一个破坏注意力的常见陷阱），another trap和上文one common trap完美呼应，并列介绍第二种休息误区。故选F。 【完形填空】 内容概要： 文章讲作者深夜刷社交媒体，看到同学“完美学习桌”的照片后产生焦虑与自卑感。朋友提醒她这张照片经摆拍修改，并非真实生活，作者由此意识到社交媒体图像多经过编辑，不是事实。成长并非完全不比较，而是学会识别比较何时有意义，何时只是“我不够好”的自我暗示，并选择不相信这种说法。 逐题解析： 41. A. posted。同学“发布”了一张完美学习桌的照片。post a photo 是“发布照片”，符合社交媒体语境。taken 虽可搭配 photo，但这里强调发到网上；后文也有 She posted three versions 呼应。 42. B. put down。a phone I couldn’t put down 表示“我放不下的手机”，即忍不住一直看手机。put down 意为“放下”。 43. B. sinking。a sinking feeling 是固定搭配，表示“沮丧、下沉的心情”，符合看到别人完美生活后的失落感；下文有提示。 44. A. end。every scroll seemed to end the same way 表示“每次刷手机似乎都以同样的方式结束/收场”。end 最符合语义。 45. D. disappear。知道比较“对自己不好”，并没有让这种不舒服的感觉“消失”。make the feeling disappear 搭配自然。 46. C. tired。朋友问作者为什么看起来“疲惫”。后文作者因刷手机、比较而心情低落，tired 最符合语境。 47. D. expect。朋友说了一些作者“没有料到”的话。said something I didn’t expect 表示“说了些我没料到的话”。understand 语法也可，但后文是作者从未想到的角度，强调“出乎意料”，所以选 expect。 48. A. strategy。朋友说她的笔记很可能是为了拍照而做的“策略/安排”。a strategy for the photo 表示“为了拍照而采取的策略”，符合“摆拍”语境。 49. C. versions。She posted three versions before that one, 表示“在那张之前她发了三个版本”。versions 指照片的不同版本/修改版。 50. D. performance。the image might be a performance rather than a fact 表示“这张图可能是一种表演/摆拍，而不是事实”。与 fact 形成对比，强调社交媒体呈现的表演性。 51. B. feed。the feed I get 指社交媒体上获得的“信息流”。前文一直在说 scrolling，feed 是核心词。 52. B. quieter。这里重点不是“这个问题更难/更棘手”，而是作者在 sinking feeling（沮丧感）到来之前，用一种更平静、更冷静、更温和的内在声音问自己一个问题。 53. C. learning。Growth, I am learning, is not about never comparing 表示“我正在认识到/学到，成长并不是从不比较”。I am learning 作插入语，自然。 54. A. when。noticing when comparison stops being information and starts being a story... 表示“注意到比较什么时候不再提供信息，而开始变成一个故事……”。when 引导时间/条件节点，最合适。 55. D. choosing。and choosing, more often than before, not to believe that story 表示“并且比以前更经常地选择不相信那个故事”。与前面的 noticing 并列，逻辑完整。 【语法填空】 内容概要： 文章描述中国民间舞动作在社交媒体上走红，吸引大量人模仿；这些动作并非网络原创，而源自北京舞蹈学院的传统民间舞教材。随着热度上升，专家也提醒：缺乏专业训练时模仿可能伤膝。 逐空解析： 56. inspiring：现在分词作结果状语，表示这些动作走红后“激励了数百万人尝试中国民间舞”。 57. has taken： “The trend” 为单数，且表示趋势“已经形成自己的生命力”，用现在完成时，前面有时间状语to date“到现在”提示。 58. characters：此处是复数概念，可数名词加s。 59. But：前后为转折关系：这些看似古怪的动作并不是网络发明。 60. were filmed：与 “originate” 并列，主语 “Both”指这些动作，与 film 是被动关系，且发生在过去，用一般过去时被动语态。 61. beyond：“well beyond China” 表“远在中国之外也能看到”，符合后文提到国外舞者也加入趋势。 62. popularity：形容词 unexpected 后需要名词 “the unexpected popularity of...” 表示“出乎意料的流行”。 63. who/that：引导定语从句修饰 “a professor”，先行词指人，在从句中作主语。 64. the：特指当年参与录制的“那些原始录像”，用定冠词 the。 65. cited：过去分词作后置定语，“experts cited by CCTV News” 表示“被央视新闻引述的专家”）。 【作文一】 范文 A：坚持人力译诗，反对诗味流失 My Opinion on AI-Generated Poetry Translations Every morning, our club’s WeChat account posts a poem, with the translation done by AI. The comments below are split: some praise the speed, while others say the lines no longer sing. I side with the latter. A machine can give us a poem’s meaning, but not its music — the rhythm, the pause, the word chosen because it hurts. Translation is rewriting, and rewriting needs a heart. So my suggestion is simple: let AI do the first draft, then invite a member to polish it. Speed is useful but only a person can make a line move us. 范文 B：拥抱 AI，反对观念上的偏见 My Opinion on AI-Generated Poetry Translations Every morning our club’s WeChat account posts a poem, with the translation now done by AI. Some classmates complain but I would rather say thank you. For most of us, the barrier to poetry is not beauty but meaning. A machine clears it in seconds, and suddenly a Dickinson line makes sense. Interest comes first; taste comes later. Only after understanding draws us in can we learn to appreciate the words’ craft. My suggestion: label the AI version clearly and add one short note on what the machine may have missed. Let AI open the door — we can walk in ourselves. 评分标准（短文无格式分，重观点与逻辑） 档次 分数 判定重心 五档 13–15 立场明确且能自圆其说；有具体例证或对比；建议可操作；句式有变化。 四档 10–12 立场清楚、理由成立，但偏概括；建议笼统。 三档 7–9 只有“AI 好/AI 不好”的单边口号，无理由支撑；或漏一个要点。 二档 4–6 要点残缺，句子多为拼凑，错误影响理解。 一档 1–3 抄提示语或写无关内容。 两个区分点： 1.能不能说清“译诗”到底丢的是什么（音乐性、歧义、译者的取舍等），而不是泛泛地谈“没有灵魂”； 2.建议有没有落到一个具体动作（先出初稿再润色、标注 AI 版本、加译者按语等）。 易失分提醒：全篇复述情境、不表态（内容分封顶三档）；立场与建议自相矛盾（如“我反对 AI”却建议“全交给 AI”）。 【作文二】 原文概要： 文章是记叙文。作者原先认为善良就是不去伤害他人。回到家乡之后，看见Nicholas爷爷每天不顾辛苦与旁人闲话，坚持清理运河垃圾。村民不解、流言四起，但爷爷从不争辩，日复一日坚持劳作。作者从推脱观望，到被带动参与河道清理，爷爷送给他捡拾工具，作者也主动爱护村里树木，对善良有了全新的体会。 参考范文（词数149） One afternoon after a heavy storm, I offered to go along the canal with Grandpa. The violent storm had left piles of rubbish scattered on the bank and floating across the canal surface. Armed with our litter pickers, we bent repeatedly to pick up plastic waste and broken branches side by side. Some villagers gathered nearby, watching and whispering as usual. Hours passed and my muscles ached badly. Yet seeing the canal gradually become tidy, a warm sense of satisfaction welled up inside me. Grandpa just wore his calm smile, sweat streaming down his cheeks. Watching Grandpa’s devoted figure, the villagers fell silent. Hesitant but eager, several of them stepped forward, carrying bags to join us. All the gossip and teasing disappeared completely. At that moment, it struck me that true goodness was far more than simply doing no harm to others. It meant taking practical action for the public good, even without praise or reward. Later, more villagers volunteered for canal clean-ups. Grandpa’s quiet kindness finally spread across the whole village. 读后续写解析 1. 情节逻辑 第一段：承接暴风雨的背景，描写河道遍布垃圾；我和爷爷并肩清理，村民照旧围观议论；描写身体劳累，同时内心收获满足，保留爷爷一贯平静微笑的人物特征。 第二段：爷爷专注投入的身影打动村民，流言停止，村民主动加入劳动；完成主题升华：真正的善良不止于不去伤害，而是不求回报付诸行动；善举扩散全村，和开篇“I used to believe that goodness merely meant doing no harm to the world”首尾呼应。 2. 评分要点 ①两段严格使用题目给出段首句，人物性格、故事逻辑与原文保持一致； ②总词数控制150左右； ③恰当运用动作、神态、环境、心理描写； ④结尾回扣“goodness”主题，完成认知转变； ⑤时态统一使用一般过去时，句式丰富，衔接自然。 3. 易失分提醒 ①偏离主线，写和清理河道无关的情节；②缺少主题升华，没有回应开头对善良的理解； ③时态混乱，混用一般现在时；④两段篇幅失衡，第一段内容过多，第二段简短草草收尾； ⑤加入原文不存在的新人物、离奇事件。 4.语言特征总结 ①语篇框架：第一人称“认知转变型”回忆叙事 开篇 I used to believe… 标志“旧认知”，changed completely 预告“新认知”—典型的“前观点→事件颠覆→后观点”结构，续写第二段必须完成“后观点”的落点。 ②人物塑造：以动作代替评价（show, not tell）​ 爷爷形象全靠动作细节链支撑：held a litter picker…, cleaning waste, risk slipping into the water, kept picking rubbish day in and day out—不出现 hardworking/selfless 等直白评价词，是续写可模仿的核心笔法。 神态收束人设：wearing his usual calm smile; never argued back。 ③对比与冲突：三组张力 “我”的怀疑（Why bother）vs 爷爷的坚持； 村民的非议 vs 爷爷的沉默； “我”的被动（dragging my feet）→ 主动（on purpose）。 注意：村民 gossip 三连—Some said… some laughed… others whispered…—是排比+递进，续写第二段 “the villagers fell silent” 正是对这条线的反转收束。 ④句法特征：分词状语高频 while walking my dog, … / cleaning waste… / making excuses about schoolwork / wearing his usual calm smile—现在分词短语挂尾是本文最值得学生仿写的升级句型，范文里的 Ignoring the risk…, Grandpa leaned forward… 与 Watching Grandpa’s devoted figure（P2 开头语本身）同款。 ⑤词汇特征：具体动词 + 短语动词，无堆砌大词 具体叙事动词：encountered, dragged my feet, picked up, straightening up； 短语动词密度高且全部词表内：make sense of, come back, show off, give a hand, argue back； 评价性形容词克制：thankless, rewarding, devoted 各司其职。 ⑥埋伏笔 “blown down trees” 暗示风灾 → P1 开头语 “after a heavy storm” 有源可溯；“an hour every day” 的时间惯性 → 支撑 P1 祖孙同行的合理性。学生续写 P1 时应回收这两处伏笔（暴雨后垃圾增多、堵住排水口），而不是另起炉灶。 录音原文： Text 1 天气 W: Do you want to go for a walk, Bob?

W: So you decided to become a professional gardener? M: Yeah. My parents offered to fund my university studies in gardening. But I felt I needed hands-on work experience, so I worked as an assistant gardener part-time while studying for my degree. W: Where did you get your first full-time job after graduation? M: At a garden center. At first it was tough. I started in the winter, outside in freezing greenhouses, putting seeds into pots full of wet soil! My parents encouraged me not to give up. I’m glad I did that. Then some time later, planting seeds, selling the fully grown plants, being ready to go into someone’s garden gave me great satisfaction. W: Why do you think you’d be a successful gardener? M: I could see that some gardeners didn’t have the in-depth knowledge of plants that I was building up. And I’m aware of what time of year to do things—what can be left for later and what has to be done now. Text 10 创立艺术机构的初衷 M: Hello, everyone! I have been involved in the art world for over 20 years, first teaching in a secondary school and now lecturing at a college. Recently, I’ve established a new agency for artists called Unusual Artists. My inspiration came from Ganesh, my oldest student at 50. He was eager to improve his art skills. He had worked all his life as an engineer on a production line. A few years ago, after brain surgery, his wife suggested he take up drawing. He told her that he’d never been interested in art, and he didn’t think he had any talent at all. However, he gave it a go and was amazed to discover that he could draw pretty much anything he saw with accuracy. It happens quite rarely, but surgery has been known to change a person’s attitude and even develop previously unknown skills. Ganesh stopped being an engineer, took a degree in art, and now he has made a name for himself in the art world, all within five years of his surgery. Meeting Ganesh made me think that there must be others out there who are beginners in the art world but have come to it in unusual ways, so I started my agency last year. Right now, we’ve signed up more than 30 up-and-coming artists, all of them coming from an unusual art background. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $第一节听下面五段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3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。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。听下面的录音，回答第一小题。do you want to go for a walk? bob?

However, he gave me a go and was amazed to discover that he could drop pretty much anything he saw with accuracy. IT happens quite rarely, but surgery has been known to change a person's attitude and even develop previously unknown skills. Ganesh stopped being an engineer, took a degree in art, and now he has made a name for himself in the art world, all within five years of a surgery meeting. Dash made me think that there must be others out there who are beginners in the art world. But i've come to IT in unusual ways. So I started my agency last year. Right now we've signed up more than thirty up and coming artists, all of them coming from an unusual art background.
