B For Katie Lewis, Ph.D., every soil sample, every field trial and every long day in the West Texas sun comes down to one thing — helping farmers build a future that lasts. That commitment runs deep. Lewis grew up on a farm, married a farmer, and now raises her children on the same type of land her research aims to protect. Lewis, like many Texas farmers, has experienced firsthand the hardships and seasonal ups and downs of the market. As a Texas A&M AgriLife Research soil chemistry and fertility scientist, she works each day to ensure that future generations of Texas farmers can thrive. As a child, Katie Lewis carried around a cigar box with batteries and wires, begging her parents for an at-home science kit to feed her growing curiosity about how things worked. That wonder was inspired by a high school science teacher, who turned every lesson into a discovery. These influences didn’t just spark interest; they guided her clear choice of study in higher education. Lewis earned a bachelor’s degree in chemistry, but her early years spent on a farm added a unique layer to her academic journey. Now in her 11th year with AgriLife Research, Lewis is looking for environmentally and economically sustainable management strategies for farmers and their cropping systems. More recently, Lewis is tackling carbon dynamics in semi-arid (半干旱) environments — work backed by more than $15 million in funding over the past few years. For Lewis, though, her impact isn’t only at the farm level; it scales through to the next generation of those who love the science. Her graduate training program has graduated 30 master’s students and 19 doctoral students, with six serving as scientists at land-grant institutions. “It is not just about the research,” Lewis said. “It’s about training the next generation of soil scientists to continue to be curious, think outside the box and find solutions to the challenges that agriculture faces.” 4. What is the main idea of paragraph 2? A. Why soil science degrees matter to Lewis. B. How AgriLife Research helps local farmers. C. Why local farming faces seasonal hardships. D. How Lewis’ upbringing fueled her ambition. 5. How can Lewis be described as a student? A. Demanding. B. Self-motivated. C. Inspirational. D. Self-sacrificing. 6. What is Lewis’ research focus? A. Sustainable farming in severe places. B. Analyzing soil nutrients in a new way. C. Economical strategies for Texas farmers. D. Managing farm produce with efficiency. 7. Why did Lewis establish a graduate training program? A. To boost her impact in farming study. B. To advocate the research in agriculture. C. To expand the size of local institutions. D. To promote the idea of land protection. C The simple act of looking at a piece of visual art can improve your well-being, a new research study has found, and this benefit can be gained in a hospital setting as well as an art gallery. Previous research has suggested that viewing art might influence mood or stress, but the research was limited and the findings were different, the authors say. This study examined decades of scattered (零散的) research, providing for the first time a clear and all-sided overview of when, where and why art viewing is used to promote well-being. The review of 38 previously published studies covering a total of 6,805 participants was conducted by a team of psychologists from University of Vienna, Trinity College Dublin, and Humboldt University of Berlin. The study found that viewing art can improve well-being, which is associated with meaning in life and personal growth. These benefits were noticed in a variety of locations — in museums and galleries as well as clinics and hospital settings and also through the medium of virtual reality. A wide range of art types including abstract, modern paintings, photography and sculpture were found to promote well-being. "People often think of art as a luxury (奢侈品), but our research suggests that viewing art — whether as a hobby or as a targeted health intervention — can meaningfully support well-being. This research opens up exciting possibilities for integrating art into everyday environments and public health strategies." said MacKenzie Trupp, lead author and researcher at the University of Vienna and Radboud UMC, Donders Institute. Claire Howlin, Assistant Professor, School of Psychology, Trinity College Dublin, added: "While the mental health benefits of creating art have been widely explored, the impact of viewing art has been under-researched and undervalued. Yet visual art is present and accessible in everyday spaces — museums, galleries, hospitals, and at home. Understanding its effects can unlock new avenues (手段) for promoting well-being through everyday encounters with art." 8. What is the new study like compared with the previous research? A. Original.  B. Thorough.  C. One-sided.  D. Limited. 9. How did the researchers draw the new conclusion? A. By reviewing previous research.  B. By performing scores of experiments. C. By interviewing thousands of participants.  D. By keeping track of experimental subjects. 10. What is the significance of the study? A. It explains art viewing in theory. B. It points to art’s medical value. C. It proves art helps communication. D. It inspires new medical treatments. 11. What do Howlin’s words really show us? A. Visual art deserves full daily use.  B. Promoting art appreciation is crucial. C. Viewing art has been fully explored.  D. Encountering art daily improves health. D The world’s oceans and freshwater systems are losing oxygen at an alarming rate, scientists warn, potentially pushing Earth into an “unsafe space”. Some of these changes could last for centuries and may not be reversible within human lifetimes. A new review examines aquatic deoxygenation (水生脱氧), the decline in dissolved oxygen (溶解氧) levels in oceans, coastal waters, rivers, lakes and streams. The researchers studied how this growing problem interacts with the nine processes in the Planetary Boundaries framework. The idea for the review grew out of the researchers’ participation in COP25, the 2019 United Nations Climate Change Conference held in Madrid. Introduced in 2009, this framework identifies environmental processes essential for keeping the planet stable and resilient, and it tracks how human activity is pushing those systems beyond safe conditions. These boundaries include climate change, ocean acidification (酸化), biodiversity loss, atmospheric aerosol (气溶胶) loading, stratospheric (平流层的) ozone depletion, freshwater change, land-use change, chemical pollution and biogeochemical flows. The researchers argue that dissolved oxygen levels should also be formally included, because aquatic ecosystems need oxygen to function normally.  “Earth’s health depends on the health of aquatic ecosystems,” said lead author Erica Ferrer, a Scripps Oceanography alumna and current postdoctoral scholar at UC Santa Barbara. “Aquatic deoxygenation is a global threat that does not operate in isolation.” Human-caused warming, nutrient pollution and changes in deeper water movement are the main forces driving oxygen loss. As oxygen levels fall, they disrupt climate-regulating processes and threaten organisms across aquatic food webs, from microscopic life to fish and sharks. Marine mammals can suffer too, because oxygen loss can reduce or relocate their prey and damage habitats, altering the food webs they depend on. The researchers hope policymakers will examine aquatic oxygen loss alongside climate change, pollution and biodiversity decline, rather than treating it as a separate problem. “Reducing its impacts represents a critical part of maintaining biodiversity and climate,” said Ferrer. 12. What does the underlined word “resilient” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Easy to break apart.  B. Slow to show changes. C. Able to recover quickly.  D. Rich in natural resources. 13. What can be inferred from the researchers’ argument? A. Oxygen loss is closely connected to Earth’s stability. B. Aquatic ecosystems require less oxygen than expected. C. Dissolved oxygen levels can be restored by human efforts. D. The framework focuses mainly on environmental pollution. 14. Why are marine mammals affected by oxygen loss? A. Their habitats become much warmer. B. Their food resources are decreased. C. They are forced to leave their habitats. D. They cannot breathe air at the surface. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Weak Points in the Boundaries Framework B. A Threat Affecting Ocean Life: Climate Change C. The Sudden Sharp Decline of Global Fish Stocks D. A Missing Planetary Boundary: Aquatic Oxygen 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Developing a healthy lifestyle is not so difficult, but it requires long-term persistence.

It left residents numb (麻木) , without enough energy to take care of themselves, let alone help somebody else. Night fell. David parked his car beside an apartment building. The building was made of stone, one of the few on this side of New Orleans. He opened his trunk, dragged out four grocery bags of food and closed the trunk with his elbow. He noticed the scratches (划痕) on his car. Someone would scratch the side of his door with a key or a rock every time he left it for the hour he was making visits. “It was only a car,” he ignored them and entered the building. It was Wednesday, the day he regularly arrived after work. The apartment building was home to two old ladies. They couldn’t walk out and lived week by week, waiting for David’s visits. They told him that people were angry at the world because of the storm. They told him how much they missed the sound and laughter of children playing in the street. They hoped that scene came back someday soon. Cleaning up after a hurricane took time. It was more than pumping out the water and cleaning out the mud. It was more than replacing dirty carpets and furniture. It was about bringing back hope, faith and care for each other. David knew this so well that he spent his life helping people suffering in storms. That was why he drove to the apartment building every Wednesday to deliver food, a smile and hope to those lonely people. This Wednesday, when David arrived as usual and parked his car, a young boy was standing there. “I will watch your car,” the boy said. “I can make sure nobody can scratch your car.” 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 David looked at the boy and smiled. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ From then on, people often heard laughter from the ladies’ apartment. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高二英语 试卷共8页，67小题，满分150分。考试用时120分钟。 注意事项： 1．考查范围：选择性必修第一册Unit 3 ~ 选择性必修第二册Unit 1。 2．答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号等填写在答题卡指定位置上。 3．回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用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。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 4．考生必须保持答题卡的整洁。考试结束后，请将答题卡交回。 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，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 1.

That commitment runs deep. Lewis grew up on a farm, married a farmer, and now raises her children on the same type of land her research aims to protect. Lewis, like many Texas farmers, has experienced firsthand the hardships and seasonal ups and downs of the market. As a Texas A&M AgriLife Research soil chemistry and fertility scientist, she works each day to ensure that future generations of Texas farmers can thrive. As a child, Katie Lewis carried around a cigar box with batteries and wires, begging her parents for an at-home science kit to feed her growing curiosity about how things worked. That wonder was inspired by a high school science teacher, who turned every lesson into a discovery. These influences didn’t just spark interest; they guided her clear choice of study in higher education. Lewis earned a bachelor’s degree in chemistry, but her early years spent on a farm added a unique layer to her academic journey. Now in her 11th year with AgriLife Research, Lewis is looking for environmentally and economically sustainable management strategies for farmers and their cropping systems. More recently, Lewis is tackling carbon dynamics in semi-arid (半干旱) environments — work backed by more than $15 million in funding over the past few years. For Lewis, though, her impact isn’t only at the farm level; it scales through to the next generation of those who love the science. Her graduate training program has graduated 30 master’s students and 19 doctoral students, with six serving as scientists at land-grant institutions. “It is not just about the research,” Lewis said. “It’s about training the next generation of soil scientists to continue to be curious, think outside the box and find solutions to the challenges that agriculture faces.” 4. What is the main idea of paragraph 2? A. Why soil science degrees matter to Lewis. B. How AgriLife Research helps local farmers. C. Why local farming faces seasonal hardships. D. How Lewis’ upbringing fueled her ambition. 5. How can Lewis be described as a student? A. Demanding. B. Self-motivated. C. Inspirational. D. Self-sacrificing. 6. What is Lewis’ research focus? A. Sustainable farming in severe places. B. Analyzing soil nutrients in a new way. C. Economical strategies for Texas farmers. D. Managing farm produce with efficiency. 7. Why did Lewis establish a graduate training program? A. To boost her impact in farming study. B. To advocate the research in agriculture. C. To expand the size of local institutions. D. To promote the idea of land protection. 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了土壤科学家Katie Lewis的成长背景、研究重点及培养后继人才的使命。 【4题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段中“Lewis grew up on a farm, married a farmer, and now raises her children on the same type of land her research aims to protect. Lewis, like many Texas farmers, has experienced firsthand the hardships and seasonal ups and downs of the market. (Lewis在农场长大，嫁给了一位农民，如今她就在自己研究致力于保护的那类土地上养育自己的孩子。和许多得克萨斯州的农民一样，Lewis亲身经历过市场带来的艰难困苦与季节性起伏波动。)”可知，本段讲述Lewis的成长经历如何激发了她的抱负。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“As a child, Katie Lewis carried around a cigar box with batteries and wires, begging her parents for an at-home science kit to feed her growing curiosity about how things worked. (孩童时期的Katie Lewis随身带着一个装着电池和电线的雪茄盒，她央求父母给她买一套家用科学实验套装，以此满足自己对事物运作原理日益浓厚的好奇心。)”可知，学生时代的Lewis是主动求知、自我驱动的。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Lewis is looking for environmentally and economically sustainable management strategies for farmers and their cropping systems. More recently, Lewis is tackling carbon dynamics in semi-arid (半干旱) environments (Lewis正在为农民及其种植体系探寻兼顾环境与经济效益的可持续管理策略。最近，她正着手研究半干旱环境下的碳动态变化)”可知，Lewis的研究重点是恶劣环境下的可持续农业。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中““It is not just about the research,” Lewis said. “It’s about training the next generation of soil scientists to continue to be curious, think outside the box and find solutions to the challenges that agriculture faces.” (“这不仅仅关乎研究，”Lewis说道，“更在于培养下一代土壤科学家，让他们永葆好奇心、打破常规思维，为农业面临的种种难题找到解决办法。”)”可知，Lewis设立研究生培养项目是为倡导农业相关研究。 C The simple act of looking at a piece of visual art can improve your well-being, a new research study has found, and this benefit can be gained in a hospital setting as well as an art gallery. Previous research has suggested that viewing art might influence mood or stress, but the research was limited and the findings were different, the authors say. This study examined decades of scattered (零散的) research, providing for the first time a clear and all-sided overview of when, where and why art viewing is used to promote well-being. The review of 38 previously published studies covering a total of 6,805 participants was conducted by a team of psychologists from University of Vienna, Trinity College Dublin, and Humboldt University of Berlin. The study found that viewing art can improve well-being, which is associated with meaning in life and personal growth. These benefits were noticed in a variety of locations — in museums and galleries as well as clinics and hospital settings and also through the medium of virtual reality. A wide range of art types including abstract, modern paintings, photography and sculpture were found to promote well-being. "People often think of art as a luxury (奢侈品), but our research suggests that viewing art — whether as a hobby or as a targeted health intervention — can meaningfully support well-being. This research opens up exciting possibilities for integrating art into everyday environments and public health strategies." said MacKenzie Trupp, lead author and researcher at the University of Vienna and Radboud UMC, Donders Institute. Claire Howlin, Assistant Professor, School of Psychology, Trinity College Dublin, added: "While the mental health benefits of creating art have been widely explored, the impact of viewing art has been under-researched and undervalued. Yet visual art is present and accessible in everyday spaces — museums, galleries, hospitals, and at home. Understanding its effects can unlock new avenues (手段) for promoting well-being through everyday encounters with art." 8. What is the new study like compared with the previous research? A. Original.  B. Thorough.  C. One-sided.  D. Limited. 9. How did the researchers draw the new conclusion? A. By reviewing previous research.  B. By performing scores of experiments. C. By interviewing thousands of participants.  D. By keeping track of experimental subjects. 10. What is the significance of the study? A. It explains art viewing in theory. B. It points to art’s medical value. C. It proves art helps communication. D. It inspires new medical treatments. 11. What do Howlin’s words really show us? A. Visual art deserves full daily use.  B. Promoting art appreciation is crucial. C. Viewing art has been fully explored.  D. Encountering art daily improves health. 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要探讨了观赏视觉艺术对提升个人福祉的积极作用。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“This study examined decades of scattered (零散的) research, providing for the first time a clear and all-sided overview of when, where and why art viewing is used to promote well-being.(这项研究调查了几十年的零散研究，首次对何时、何地以及为什么艺术观看被用来促进福祉提供了一个清晰而全面的概述。)”可知，与以前的研究相比，新的研究是彻底的。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The review of 38 previously published studies covering a total of 6,805 participants was conducted by a team of psychologists from University of Vienna, Trinity College Dublin, and Humboldt University of Berlin.(由维也纳大学、都柏林三一学院和柏林洪堡大学的心理学家组成的一个团队，对38项先前发表的研究进行了综述，这些研究共涉及6805名参与者。)”可知，研究人员是通过回顾先前的研究来得出新的结论的。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The simple act of looking at a piece of visual art can improve your well-being, a new research study has found, and this benefit can be gained in a hospital setting as well as an art gallery.(一项新研究发现，仅仅欣赏一件视觉艺术品就能改善你的身心状态，无论是在美术馆还是医院环境中，都能收获这份益处。)”以及第五段“This research opens up exciting possibilities for integrating art into everyday environments and public health strategies.(这项研究为将艺术融入日常环境与公共健康策略开辟了令人振奋的可能。)”可知，该研究指出了艺术具备医疗健康方面的价值。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段“Yet visual art is present and accessible in everyday spaces — museums, galleries, hospitals, and at home. Understanding its effects can unlock new avenues (手段) for promoting well-being through everyday encounters with art.(然而视觉艺术就在我们身边，在博物馆、美术馆、医院和家中都能接触到。弄清它的作用，可以开辟新途径，让人们在日常与艺术的接触中提升幸福感。)”可知，Howlin 的话表明日常接触艺术有助于改善健康。 D The world’s oceans and freshwater systems are losing oxygen at an alarming rate, scientists warn, potentially pushing Earth into an “unsafe space”. Some of these changes could last for centuries and may not be reversible within human lifetimes. A new review examines aquatic deoxygenation (水生脱氧), the decline in dissolved oxygen (溶解氧) levels in oceans, coastal waters, rivers, lakes and streams. The researchers studied how this growing problem interacts with the nine processes in the Planetary Boundaries framework. The idea for the review grew out of the researchers’ participation in COP25, the 2019 United Nations Climate Change Conference held in Madrid. Introduced in 2009, this framework identifies environmental processes essential for keeping the planet stable and resilient, and it tracks how human activity is pushing those systems beyond safe conditions. These boundaries include climate change, ocean acidification (酸化), biodiversity loss, atmospheric aerosol (气溶胶) loading, stratospheric (平流层的) ozone depletion, freshwater change, land-use change, chemical pollution and biogeochemical flows. The researchers argue that dissolved oxygen levels should also be formally included, because aquatic ecosystems need oxygen to function normally.  “Earth’s health depends on the health of aquatic ecosystems,” said lead author Erica Ferrer, a Scripps Oceanography alumna and current postdoctoral scholar at UC Santa Barbara. “Aquatic deoxygenation is a global threat that does not operate in isolation.” Human-caused warming, nutrient pollution and changes in deeper water movement are the main forces driving oxygen loss. As oxygen levels fall, they disrupt climate-regulating processes and threaten organisms across aquatic food webs, from microscopic life to fish and sharks. Marine mammals can suffer too, because oxygen loss can reduce or relocate their prey and damage habitats, altering the food webs they depend on. The researchers hope policymakers will examine aquatic oxygen loss alongside climate change, pollution and biodiversity decline, rather than treating it as a separate problem. “Reducing its impacts represents a critical part of maintaining biodiversity and climate,” said Ferrer. 12. What does the underlined word “resilient” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Easy to break apart.  B. Slow to show changes. C. Able to recover quickly.  D. Rich in natural resources. 13. What can be inferred from the researchers’ argument? A. Oxygen loss is closely connected to Earth’s stability. B. Aquatic ecosystems require less oxygen than expected. C. Dissolved oxygen levels can be restored by human efforts. D. The framework focuses mainly on environmental pollution. 14. Why are marine mammals affected by oxygen loss? A. Their habitats become much warmer. B. Their food resources are decreased. C. They are forced to leave their habitats. D. They cannot breathe air at the surface. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Weak Points in the Boundaries Framework B. A Threat Affecting Ocean Life: Climate Change C. The Sudden Sharp Decline of Global Fish Stocks D. A Missing Planetary Boundary: Aquatic Oxygen 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了全球水生脱氧现象，研究者提出应将水体溶解氧纳入行星边界框架，阐述了水生脱氧带来的危害以及相关治理建议。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“Introduced in 2009, this framework identifies environmental processes essential for keeping the planet stable and resilient, and it tracks how human activity is pushing those systems beyond safe conditions.(于2009年推出，该框架确定了对维持地球稳定且resilient至关重要的环境过程，并且追踪人类活动如何将这些系统推向安全状态之外。)”可知，and连接并列含义，stable表示稳定，由此可推知“resilient”意为“可快速恢复的，有复原力的”。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“The researchers argue that dissolved oxygen levels should also be formally included, because aquatic ecosystems need oxygen to function normally.(研究人员认为溶解氧水平也应当被正式纳入该框架，因为水生生态系统需要氧气才能正常运转。)”可知，氧气流失和地球的稳定密切相关。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“Marine mammals can suffer too, because oxygen loss can reduce or relocate their prey and damage habitats, altering the food webs they depend on.(海洋哺乳动物也会受到影响，因为氧气流失会减少或转移它们的猎物、破坏栖息地，改变它们赖以生存的食物网。)”可知，海洋哺乳动物受影响的原因是它们的食物资源减少了。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“The researchers studied how this growing problem interacts with the nine processes in the Planetary Boundaries framework.(研究人员研究了这个日益严重的问题与行星边界框架中九个过程之间的相互作用。)”以及第三段“The researchers argue that dissolved oxygen levels should also be formally included, because aquatic ecosystems need oxygen to function normally.(研究人员认为溶解氧水平也应当被正式纳入该框架，因为水生生态系统需要氧气才能正常运转。)”可知，现有行星边界框架还没有把水生溶解氧纳入其中，水生脱氧是一项尚未被纳入的、缺失的行星边界。D选项“A Missing Planetary Boundary: Aquatic Oxygen(一个缺失的行星边界：水生氧气)”契合全文主旨。 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Developing a healthy lifestyle is not so difficult, but it requires long-term persistence.

The storm took away their belongings as well as their hope. It left residents numb (麻木) , without enough energy to take care of themselves, let alone help somebody else. Night fell. David parked his car beside an apartment building. The building was made of stone, one of the few on this side of New Orleans. He opened his trunk, dragged out four grocery bags of food and closed the trunk with his elbow. He noticed the scratches (划痕) on his car. Someone would scratch the side of his door with a key or a rock every time he left it for the hour he was making visits. “It was only a car,” he ignored them and entered the building. It was Wednesday, the day he regularly arrived after work. The apartment building was home to two old ladies. They couldn’t walk out and lived week by week, waiting for David’s visits. They told him that people were angry at the world because of the storm. They told him how much they missed the sound and laughter of children playing in the street. They hoped that scene came back someday soon. Cleaning up after a hurricane took time. It was more than pumping out the water and cleaning out the mud. It was more than replacing dirty carpets and furniture. It was about bringing back hope, faith and care for each other. David knew this so well that he spent his life helping people suffering in storms. That was why he drove to the apartment building every Wednesday to deliver food, a smile and hope to those lonely people. This Wednesday, when David arrived as usual and parked his car, a young boy was standing there. “I will watch your car,” the boy said. “I can make sure nobody can scratch your car.” 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 David looked at the boy and smiled. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ From then on, people often heard laughter from the ladies’ apartment. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 David looked at the boy and smiled. He recognized the weariness on the young face, mirroring the storm’s lingering shadow. “That’s very kind,” David said gently, touched by the unexpected offer. Though tempted to decline, he saw the boy’s determined eyes and threadbare clothes. “Alright,” he agreed softly. Handing the boy one of the lighter bags, he added, “Maybe you could help carry this upstairs too?” A hesitant smile appeared on the boy’s face as he took the bag, his small act of guarding evolving into a shared purpose. From then on, people often heard laughter from the ladies’ apartment. The boy, named Leo, became a regular companion on David’s Wednesday visits. He helped distribute food, listened attentively to the ladies’ stories about the old neighborhood, and even drew pictures of children playing to replace the lost sounds they missed. Leo’s presence and David’s consistent kindness became a small beacon. Gradually, neighbors began exchanging hesitant greetings, inspired by the simple acts of care radiating from the old stone building. Hope, fragile yet persistent, started to mend the invisible cracks Katrina left behind, stitch by small human stitch. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了卡特里娜飓风过后，新奥尔良居民失去财物与希望，陷入麻木。大卫每周三下班后都会给一栋石楼里的两位独居老太太送食物、带去温暖，他的车常被人划伤却毫不在意。某天，男孩利奥主动提出帮他看管车辆，还协助送东西上楼。此后利奥成为固定同伴，陪老人聊天、画孩子们玩耍的画，两人的善意像灯塔，带动邻居互动，慢慢修补飓风留下的创伤，让希望重燃。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“大卫看着这个男孩，微笑着”可知，第一段可描写大卫和利奥成为同伴的经过。 ②由第二段首句内容“从那以后，人们常常能听到女士们公寓里传来的笑声”可知，第二段可描写两人陪老人聊天、画孩子们玩耍的画，两人的善意像灯塔，带动邻居互动，慢慢修补飓风留下的创伤，让希望重燃。 2.续写线索：看到利奥——接受帮助——成为同伴——给予邻居帮助——带动邻居互动——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①代替：replace/take the place of ②变成：evolve into/turn into ③出现：appear/show up 情绪类 ①专注地：attentively/mindfully ②善意：kindness/good-deed 【点睛】[高分句型1] Handing the boy one of the lighter bags, he added, “Maybe you could help carry this upstairs too?”（运用了现在分词作状语） [高分句型2] A hesitant smile appeared on the boy’s face as he took the bag, his small act of guarding evolving into a shared purpose.（运用了as引导时间状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
