In Bududa, a lush yet landslide-prone district of eastern Uganda, Mary Butsina and a growing number of other women farmers are building their livelihoods around coffee. "I'm supporting all of my 10 children with it." says the 36-year-old, holding a red bucket.
From farming stock, Mary first went to work with her father at the age of 10. Profits from his coffee crop covered her school fees. She married into coffee too, with her husband giving her 100 trees as a wedding present. But Mary's since planted more than 300 herself and joined a women's cooperative. "The aim was to reduce the dependence of women on men in coffee." Mary says, though husbands are allowed to join too—as they tend to own the coffee plantations and support their wives. "More women have started to plant their own coffee." she says.
Mary rises early every day to pick the coffee cherries. "It's hard work but when you concentrate it can become easy." says Mary. After gathering the ripe fruit, she puts it in a bucket of water to weed out the unhealthy cherries. The beans are then fermented (发酵) in water for at least two days before being laid out to dry in direct sunlight. Once dried, the beans are gathered up and later collected by Endiro Coffee, a social enterprise working with women-led, organic farms. The coffee is later milled, roasted and ground, ready for use.
It hasn't been an easy journey for the Bududa farmers, who've faced annual landslides for the past 15 years. In 2018, Mary's mother's house was destroyed and she lost some of her coffee plantations. She dreams of living in a solidly built house with water nearby, so she doesn't have to trek (跋涉) a long way to fetch it-but these will take time to save for. "I've worked a lot and I don't want to stop, but I want my money to work for me." she says.
4.What role does coffee play in Mary's hometown
A.A significant source of income.
B.A bond of love and marriage.
C.A symbol of wealth and status.
D.A barrier to frequent landslides.
5.How does the women's cooperative benefit female coffee farmers
A.By providing them with high quality trees.
B.By accessing them to better sales channels.
C.By liberating them from their husbands.
D.By enabling them to control their business.
6.Why is the processing of coffee beans mentioned in Paragraph 3
A.To display Mary's technical proficiency.
B.To prove the high quality of Ugandan coffee.
C.To highlight Mary's dedication and diligence.
D.To emphasize the difficulties of planting coffee.
7.What does Mary mean in the last sentence of the text
A.She plans to expand her coffee planting business.
B.She desires to achieve economic independence.
C.She thinks the road to happiness is still distant.
D.She believes her hard work will finally pay off.

A good story. That's what influences our choice to buy a book the most. Right Some of the biggest-selling novels of all time just so happened to be attached to major publishers. Indeed, any reading lover will be familiar with the countless publishing houses that have brought brilliant works to the market. So in theory, perhaps a publisher does matter.
Every time you read a book that you enjoy, you likely look at the publisher attached to it. That name is a signal that they will produce other content that fits with that same style. It makes a lot of sense to continue to purchase texts from a company that is telling the kinds of stories that you enjoy the most. Consumer habits are thus based on trust that a publisher will be consistent in the books they deliver and that investing time in them is more reliable than an untested source.
The strength of the author themselves can also play into that. After all, well-liked authors are often signed to a book deal with a select few publishers, strengthening the brand further.
Of course, a publisher would be nothing without its logo, which is a major call-to-arms for all fans of the brand. The top publishers in the world instantly recognizable imagery, which catch the attention while summing up the name of a brand in an instant. That thus builds our association with a given name. The fun penguin shape of Penguin Random House is so iconic, for example, that it could not be confused with any other publishing business.
There might be a place for those indie (独立经营的) book companies, with occasional stories breaking through and forcing people to take notice. In truth that's far less common than you expect. Expert Cassandra Davis, however, provides a hopeful insight. "Indie bookshops are more likely to stock an indie publisher's books, especially if the author is local to the bookshop." She says. Therefore, supporting local bookshops is a vital way to keep the indie industry alive and change these trends.
8.Which of the following is not a strategy for a publisher to promote its brand
A.Maintaining consistent publishing style.
B.Contracting with renowned writers.
C.Offering discounts to repeat customers.
D.Designing a distinctive trademark.
9.What is the author's attitude towards indie publishers
A.Optimistic. B.Sympathetic. C.Objective. D.Indifferent.
10.What does the underlined words "these trends" in the last paragraph refer to
A.Dominance of major publishers.
B.Lack of attention to excellent books.
C.Depression of local bookshops.
D.Stability of consumers' preferences.
11.Which of the following is the best title for the text
A.Should We Judge a Book by Its Publisher
B.Do Publishers Influence Our Reading Choices
C.Why Do We Choose the Same Publisher Continuously
D.What Advantages Do Major Publishers Have Over Indie Ones

Humans act with purpose, but much is still unknown about how we become purposeful agents — that is, how we develop the ability to willfully make things happen. In a recent study to explore agency's mysterious roots, we tried to catch infants (婴儿) in the act of discovering their own agency, thereby revealing the process of agency formation.
Researchers place a baby into a cradle with a mobile suspended above. Then a scientist ties one end of a string to the mobile and the other to the infant's foot. Now if the baby moves, the toy will, too. By observing babies in this setup, scientists can watch as the infants learn and recall a simple cause-and-effect interaction: kick a foot and the mobile moves.
As predicted by the researchers, infants kicked significantly more when their foot was tethered (拴住) to the mobile than when it was not. However, when an experimenter pulled the string to make the mobile move instead, infants moved less than when the mobile was at rest. Furthermore, when we freed the babies' foot from the mobile, they kept on kicking at higher rate to make the toy respond — and were visibly frustrated when that did not happen.
Our observations also pointed to a notable pattern: The babies' initial movements consisted of twisting and pushing without clear direction. But once tethered to the mobile, the more intensely they moved, the more their attention was drawn to the effect their kicking had on it. At some point, the infants must have figured out that they had agency, thus the aimless movements became intentional action — a highly coordinated exchange between the tethered infant and the mobile.
The baby-mobile study emphasizes how understanding the relationship between an organism and its environment is essential to uncovering the origins of directed behavior. The experience of agency emerges only when an organism senses it is coupled to its environment. In this way of thinking, the interaction and relationship between the two are crucial for purpose to arise.
12.What can we learn about agency according to the text
A.It is an inborn ability without learning.
B.It embodies in babies the most evidently.
C.It exists in all aspects of our daily life.
D.It is a resonance with our surroundings.
13.How did the researchers make the experiment convincing
A.By predicting multiple possible results.
B.By tracking babies' behaviour precisely.
C.By setting up comparative experiments.
D.By building proper interpretation model.
14.What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about
A.Analysis of experimental phenomena.
B.Supplement to experimental details.
C.Explanation of experimental design.
D.Summary of experimental outcomes.
15.What is the main purpose of the text
A.To uncover the process of agency formation.
B.To report a cutting-edge discovery about agency.
C.To guide people on how to take advantage of agency.
D.To clarify the importance of environment to creatures.

We all know someone who holds court wherever they find themselves with amusing stories. For the rest of us, conversation can be trickier. Our editor asked Catherine Blyth, the author of The Art of Conversation for her tips on how to shine — and not get cancelled — at your next small-talk.
Consider what you want from a conversation
16. . In fact, a conversation is usually a way to get something we want, whether that's to making a friend, or to asking someone on a date. Knowing what you want will keep things flowing. "At least, what you can get from a conversation is an interesting adventure with another mind. 17. ." says Blyth.
Guide the other person to help you
"There's nothing more flattering (受宠若惊) than feeling like that you've helped someone," Blyth says. She suggests finding a way to make the other person useful to you. " 18. , that allows you to reveal a bit of yourself while inviting them to help, which is a great way to get conversation started."
Listen attentively and purposefully
Are you listening to understand, or listening to respond That's a perfect question a would-be conversationalist should ask themselves. "A good listener indicates what interests them. 19. . If I'm conversing with someone who makes it all about themselves, I'll gently point that I'm not interested and shift us towards other topics." says Blyth.
Keep your phone out of sight and out of mind
"If you're chatting with someone with your phone next to you, what you're saying is ‘you're only as important as my next notification'," says Blyth. "Whatever you do on a screen isn't a conversation. Problems arises from comparing real conversation to text messaging. 20. . We need to give each other some grace."
A. Seeing the world through the eyes of others is a reward itself
B. People feel bad about conversation because they think it's a performance
C. Your responses should show which topics are interesting and which aren't
D. The best mindset you bring to small-talk is the idea that it's a treasure hunt
E. A direct praise is good, but if it's something like ‘I love that coat, where did you buy it '
F. In a real conversation, you can't look things up, think about how to phrase your thoughts
G. You have to constantly be listening with your ears, your mind, and be conscious of doing so

Holding Mom's Hand
Technically speaking, my Mom is old-she is in her 70s now. She once used to be a woman full of life and laughter. All of that changed after my Dad passed away about ten years ago. Although they were not what you would call a "lovey dovey" couple, Mom did take his sudden death quite badly. To make matters worse, my brother decided to relocate to another city, while Mom decided to stay behind with her sister.
Whenever my Mom comes over to stay with me for some time (I live with my husband and his parents), she always demands constant attention from me. She generally gets nostalgic (怀旧的) of the good old times we used to spend together discussing pets, books, cooking, or life in general. Sometimes it turned into a complaining session-"You never spare time for me anymore" or "I have become useless to everyone". I always used to retort (反驳) with "Oh, Mom, please don't start all over again" or sometimes rudely remark, "How can you expect me to do the things we used to do together years ago There is no time for such things anymore!" Mom would become silent, probably because she had resigned herself to the way things are now. I could sense I had hurt her but there was little I could do, or so I thought at the time.
Then it struck me-I always try to be nice to people at work. I do random acts of kindness for strangers. I sometimes surprise an old friend with a phone call. But what have I done for my Mom Why is it that I am so reluctant to hold her hands in front of others Is it because I am embarrassed to be labeled as "mama's girl" at my age Well, I am no longer young myself. Is it because I have taken my Mom for granted because her days are done
Today was yet another chaotic day. I was occupied in dealing with my own things, getting ready for work, leaving my Mom to have her breakfast all alone at the table. I had so many things on my mind-the deadline at work, an appointment with my dentist, what to cook for dinner...
注意:(1)续写词数应为150个左右;(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

11.B
【知识点】推理判断题;词义猜测题;细节理解题;说明文;社会现象类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,文章主要讲的是出版商会影响我们的阅读选择的原因。
【点评】考查阅读理解。本篇文章涉及细节理解题,推理判断题,词义猜测题和主旨大意题四种题型。细节理解题要求考生能在快速阅读文章的同时,从中获取某些特定的直接信息或理解特定信息的意义。做细节理解题时,要根据题干中的关键词,找准相关句、段的内容,再仔细对照,不符合原文意义的选项要首先排除,反之,则是正确选项。做推理判断题时,要求考生不能凭主观臆断推测或妄加猜测,必须忠实于原文,以材料所提供的相关事实和线索为依据,使做出的推理合乎文意。需要注意:审清题目要求;锁定关键信息;挖掘隐含信息;排除干扰选项;把握语境情感;逻辑推理分析。词义猜测题主要考查考生根据上下文推测词义和语义的能力,突出考查对语境的分析和把握能力。常见的猜词法有:利用上下文语境。猜测任何词义都离不开上下文,所以要借助上下文对需要猜测的词或短语进行合乎逻辑的推测。 利用定义或解释性的线索。阅读文章中的有些生词往往在其后会有对该词进行解释说明的短语或句子,利用它们猜词义较容易 利用文章的逻辑关系答题。如并列、对比、因果、转折关系等。做主旨大意题时,要求考生抓住每段或每个层次的主要含义进行加工、提炼,通过对语篇结构的分析即对文章内部各层次间的逻辑关系的分析,将每段的主题综合起来,找出文章的中心。
8.细节理解题。根据文章第二段"Every time you read a book that you enjoy, you likely look at the publisher attached to it. That name is a signal that they will produce other content that fits with that same style.(每次你读一本你喜欢的书时,你可能会看它的出版商。这个名字是一个信号,表明他们将生产符合相同风格的其他内容。)"以及第三段"The strength of the author themselves can also play into that. After all, well-liked authors are often signed to a book deal with a select few publishers, strengthening the brand further. (作者自身的实力也会发挥作用。毕竟,受欢迎的作家通常会与少数几家选定的出版商签订出书协议,从而进一步强化其品牌。)"以及第四段"Of course, a publisher would be nothing without its logo, which is a major call-to-arms for all fans of the brand. .(当然,如果没有自己的logo,发行商就什么都不是,而这正是所有品牌粉丝的主要诉求。)"可知出版商推广其品牌的策略是保持一贯的出版风格、与知名作家签约并设计有特色的商标,文章没有提到给回头客提供折扣的策略,所以C项 Offering discounts to repeat customers.(给回头客提供折扣。)不是出版商为了推广其品牌所采取的策略。故选C。
9.推理判断题。根据文章最后一段"There might be a place for those indie (独立经营的) book companies, with occasional stories breaking through and forcing people to take notice. In truth that's far less common than you expect. Expert Cassandra Davis, however, provides a hopeful insight. "Indie bookshops are more likely to stock an indie publisher's books, especially if the author is local to the bookshop." She says. Therefore, supporting local bookshops is a vital way to keep the indie industry alive and change these trends.(独立图书公司可能会有一席之地,偶尔会有一些故事脱颖而出,引起人们的注意。事实上,这种情况比你想象的要少得多。然而,专家卡桑德拉·戴维斯提供了一个充满希望的见解。"独立书店更有可能出售独立出版商的书,尤其是如果作者是本地人。"她说。因此,支持当地书店是保持独立出版业活力和改变这些趋势的重要途径。)"可知在作者看来独立图书公司占有一席之地的机率是非常小的,但是作者又指出专家卡桑德拉 戴维斯提出支持当地书店可以保持独立出版业活力并改变这些趋势,由此可以推知作者对于独立出版商的态度是客观的。故选C。
10.词义猜测题。根据文章最后一段"There might be a place for those indie (独立经营的) book companies, with occasional stories breaking through and forcing people to take notice. In truth that's far less common than you expect. (独立图书公司可能会有一席之地,偶尔会有一些故事脱颖而出,引起人们的注意。事实上,这种情况比你想象的要少得多。)"以及划线词之前"Therefore, supporting local bookshops is a vital way to keep the indie industry alive and change (因此,支持当地书店是保持独立出版业活力和改变的重要途径。)"可知独立图书公司在与主要出版商的竞争中很难有脱颖而出的机会,但是支持当地书店则可以让独立出版业保持活力并有机会脱颖而出,即改变主要出版商占统治地位的局面,所以此处划线词these trends指的是主要出版商的统治地位。故选A。
11.主旨大意题。文章第一段"Some of the biggest-selling novels of all time just so happened to be attached to major publishers. Indeed, any reading lover will be familiar with the countless publishing houses that have brought brilliant works to the market. So in theory, perhaps a publisher does matter.(一些有史以来最畅销的小说恰好是由大出版商出版的。的确,任何一个爱读书的人都不陌生,无数的出版社为市场带来了精彩的作品。所以从理论上讲,也许出版商确实很重要。)"提出出版商确实很重要的话题,文章第二、三以及四段分别从保持一贯的出版风格、与知名作家签约并设计有特色的商标三个方面来说明出版商推广其品牌的策略,文章最后一段指出独立出版商在与主要出版商在市场竞争方面所面临的困难,同时又为其指明了出路,纵观全文,文章主要是在围绕着出版商会影响我们的阅读选择及其原因来展开,所以B项Do Publishers Influence Our Reading Choices (出版商会影响我们的阅读选择吗?)作为文章标题最为合适。故选B。

In this way of thinking, the interaction and relationship between the two are crucial for purpose to arise. (只有当有机体感觉到它与环境相结合时,代理的经验才会出现。在这种思维方式中,两者之间的相互作用和关系对于目的的产生至关重要)"可知,代理权是我们与周围环境的共鸣。故选D。
13.细节理解题。根据第二段"Researchers place a baby into a cradle with a mobile suspended above. Then a scientist ties one end of a string to the mobile and the other to the infant's foot.(研究人员把一个婴儿放进一个摇篮里,上面悬挂着一个手机。然后,科学家将绳子的一端系在手机上,另一端系在婴儿的脚上)"可知,研究人员通过设置对比实验使实验具有说服力。故选C。

【知识点】说明文;七选五;日常生活类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,The Art of Conversation一书的作者Catherine Blyth针对谈话提出了一些建议。备选项的中文意思:A. 通过别人的眼睛看世界本身就是一种回报。B. 人们对话感到不舒服,是因为他们认为对话是一种表演。C. 你的回应应该表明哪些话题是有趣的,哪些不是。D. 你对闲聊应采取的最佳心态是,这是一场寻宝之旅。E. 直接赞美是好的,但如果只是像‘我喜欢你的外套,你在哪里买的?' F. 在真正的对话中,你不能查找事情,思考如何表达你的想法 。 G. 你必须不断地用你的耳朵、你的大脑去倾听,并意识到你正在这样做 。
【点评】考查任务型阅读(七选五)。解题时,要求考生注意通读整篇文章,把握整段脉络,理出文章的中心,分析段落之间和段落内部的层次。选项与前后句之间的逻辑关系是确定答案的主要依据。可以从意思、关键词、关联词来分析段落之间以及段落内部的逻辑关系。七选五解题的一些实用技巧如下。第一,快速浏览全文,把握文章主旨。在开始解题前,快速浏览全文,了解文章的大致内容和主题,有助于更好地理解和判断每个选项的合适性。第二,注意段首句和段尾句。段首句往往是对整段的概括或引入,而段尾句则常常是对该段的总结或结论。因此,关注这些句子有助于我们快速了解段落的主旨,从而更好地选择答案。第三,利用上下文语境和逻辑关系进行推断。在选择答案时,要仔细阅读上下文,寻找与选项相关的线索和信息,如关联词、同义词、反义词等。同时,也要根据逻辑关系进行推断,如因果、转折、并列等,从而确定正确答案。
16.下文"In fact, a conversation is usually a way to get something we want, whether that's to making a friend, or to asking someone on a date. (事实上,谈话通常是得到我们想要的东西的一种方式,无论是交朋友,还是邀请某人约会。)"提到谈话通常是得到我们想要的东西的一种方式,结合in fact可知,前文与此处是转折关系,因此推断B项"人们对话感到不舒服,是因为他们认为对话是一种表演。"符合语境,前后文形成对比,故选B。
17.上文"At least, what you can get from a conversation is an interesting adventure with another mind. (至少,你能从谈话中得到的是与另一个人的一次有趣的冒险。)"提到你能从谈话中得到的是与另一个人的一次有趣的冒险,是描述从谈话中得到的好处,A项"通过别人的眼睛看世界本身就是一种回报。"承接上文,符合语境,故选A。
18.上文"She suggests finding a way to make the other person useful to you. (她建议想办法让对方对你有用。)"提到Blyth建议想办法让对方对你有用,下文"that allows you to reveal a bit of yourself while inviting them to help, which is a great way to get conversation started. (这可以让你在邀请他们帮忙的同时展示自己,这是开始对话的好方法。)"提到某种方法的好处,故空处应是提及一种具体的方法,E项"直接赞美是好的,但如果只是像‘我喜欢你的外套,你在哪里买的?'"符合语境,故选E。
19.上文"A good listener indicates what interests them. (一个好的倾听者表明他们感兴趣的是什么。)"提到一个好的倾听者表明他们感兴趣的是什么,C项"你的回应应该表明哪些话题是有趣的,哪些不是。"承接上文,讲述倾听者如何表明是否感兴趣,符合语境,故选C。
20.上文"Whatever you do on a screen isn't a conversation. Problems arises from comparing real conversation to text messaging. (你在屏幕上做的任何事情都不是对话。将真实对话与短信进行比较会产生问题。)"提到,真实对话与短信不同,将两者进行比较会产生问题,F项"在真正的对话中,你不能查找事情,思考如何表达你的想法 。"进一步阐述两者的不同之处,故选F。

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。本文通过叙述Juleus Ghunta的成长经历,特别是他从几乎无法阅读到成为儿童书籍作者和获奖诗人的转变过程,展现了个人奋斗和一位年轻教师对他成长的影响。
【点评】考查完形填空。首先要通读一遍文章,跳过缺失的单词,再根据上下文来判断所缺失的单词的含义,最后对选项进行对比分析,选出正确选项。完形填空旨在测试学生的语言综合运用能力。一些实用的解题策略如下。一、通读全文,把握大意。在开始答题之前,应先通读全文,了解文章的主题和大致内容。这样有助于理解作者的意图,把握文章的整体思路,为后续的填空选择提供正确的方向。二、仔细分析,逐一排查。对于每一个空,要仔细分析所给的选项,逐一排查,选出最符合文意的答案。通常情况下,完形填空中会有几个空白需要填写形容词、副、名词等,要注意所填的词要与句子前后内容相符。三、结合上下文,理解语义。有时候仅从一个空所在的句子很难确定正确的答案,这时需要结合上下文,理解整体的语义环境。通过对前后的语境分析,确定一个合理的答案。四、注意语法结构。完形填空中涉及的语法知识较多,如时态、语态、词性等。在选择答案时,要仔细考虑语法结构是否正确。

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了北京中轴线的建设理念。
【点评】考查语法填空。本题考点涉及名词,冠词,形容词,介词,时态,语态,主谓一致,非谓语动词以及定语从句等多个知识点的考查。要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上,进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系,并结合相关语法知识,进行分析推理,从而写出正确的单词形式。语法填空实用解题策略如下。一、分析句子结构。在面对语法填空题时,首先要做的是分析句子的结构。观察句子中的主语、谓语、宾语等主要成分,以及是否有从句、非谓语动词等复杂结构。通过理解句子结构,可以更好地把握填空处所需的词性和功能。二、确定词性变化。根据句子结构和语境,确定填空处所需的词性。然后,根据语法规则,考虑所需的词性是否需要进行变化,如名词的单复数、动词的时态和语态、形容词和副词的比较级和最高级等。确保所填词汇在语法上与句子其他部分相匹配。三、牢记固定搭配。英语中存在大量的固定搭配和短语,这些搭配在语法填空题中经常出现。因此,需要牢记常见的固定搭配和短语,以便在解题时能够迅速识别并正确填空。四、注意时态语态。时态和语态是英语语法填空的重要考点。在解题时,要注意根据句子的语境和上下文,判断所需动词的时态和语态。同时,也要注意时态和语态的一致性,确保所填词汇与句子的时态和语态相符。五、理解上下文语境。语境对于语法填空题的解答至关重要。通过理解句子的上下文,可以更好地理解填空处所需的词汇和语法结构。因此,在解题时,要仔细阅读句子的前后文,把握句子的整体意义,以便更好地填空。
36.句意:北京中轴线,贯穿北京老城的中心,南北延伸,控制着首都的整体布局,是建筑群和考古遗址的融合。此处表示"一个.......的融合",表示泛指,故空处应用不定冠词,integration为元音音素发音开头的单词,故空处应用不定冠词an。故填an。
37.句意:北京中轴线始建于13世纪,成型于16世纪,经过7个多世纪的不断完善,形成了一个组织严密、气势磅礴的建筑群,体现了中国古代首都的理想秩序,这种秩序深深植根于两千多年的首都规划传统。空处在句中做前置定语修饰名词order,空处表示"理想的",ideal,形容词,符合语境。故填ideal。
38.句意:北京中轴线始建于13世纪,成型于16世纪,经过7个多世纪的不断完善,形成了一个组织严密、气势磅礴的建筑群,体现了中国古代首都的理想秩序,这种秩序深深植根于两千多年的首都规划传统。空处为非谓语且在句中作后置定语修饰名词order,动词root与其逻辑主语order构成逻辑上的被动关系,故空处应用过去分词作后置定语。故填rooted。
39.句意:从永定门到钟鼓楼,经正阳门、天安门、太和宫、景山,北京中轴线连接了外、内、皇城和皇宫。此处表示"把......和......连接在一起",connect…with…,固定短语,符合语境。故填with。

43.句意:如今,北京中轴线的世界遗产申请已经被列入核心区规划,这一令人惊叹的城市景观正在成为古都保护与城市发展的发展轴线。空处为句子的谓语,根据句中时间状语already可知,空处谓语时态为现在完成时,主语the application for the world heritage status of Beijing Central Axis与动词 include构成被动关系,故空处谓语应用现在完成时的被动语态,主语the application for the world heritage status of Beijing Central Axis为第三人称单数,故助动词用三单式has。故填has been included。
44.句意:如今,北京中轴线的世界遗产申请已经被列入核心区规划,这一令人惊叹的城市景观正在成为古都保护与城市发展的发展轴线。空处为that引导的限制性定语从句的谓语,本句陈述的内容为客观事实,故空处谓语时态为一般现在时,主语a development axis为第三人称单数,故空处谓语应用三单式highlights。故填highlights。
45. 句意:未来,它将继续焕发出生机勃勃的魅力,以更加从容自信的姿态滋养屹立于世界东方的中华文明。空处与more confident并列做前置定语修饰名词posture,故空处应用形容词calm的比较级。故填calmer。
46.【答案】Small changes make an ideal library
As a student, I am excited about the upcoming renovation of our library. Among the many possible changes, I particularly hope for two improvements.
Firstly, I envision a cozier reading area with soft lighting and comfortable seating. This will create a relaxing atmosphere, encouraging students to immerse themselves in books for longer periods. Secondly, I believe the addition of more electrical outlets and USB charging stations is crucial. With modern devices becoming indispensable for learning, having easy access to charging facilities will be a great convenience.
These small yet significant changes will undoubtedly contribute to making our library an ideal place for learning and exploration.

47.【答案】Mom stared at me silently, with a wronged look. Her eyes, once filled with laughter and life, now held a hint of sadness and disappointment. It was as if she was silently accusing me of neglecting her, of forgetting the bond we once shared. The sight of her like that pierced my heart, reminding me of all the times I had been too busy or too preoccupied to give her the attention she deserved. I realized then that my actions had caused her pain, and I felt a deep sense of regret.
Then, all of sudden, I stopped myself.I halted in my tracks, mid-stride, as if a switch had flipped inside me. So, I turned around and walked back to the table where Mom sat, I sat down next to her, took her hand in mine, and apologized sincerely for my neglect. "Mom, I'm sorry. I know I've been too busy lately and haven't been giving you the time and attention you deserve." Mom's face lit up with a smile, and I could see the sadness in her eyes begin to fade away. From that moment on, I made a conscious effort to spend more quality time with her, to listen to her stories and share in her joys and sorrows.
【知识点】文字式记叙文;读后续写
【解析】【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读文章可知,该篇记叙文以人物为线索展开,讲述了作者的父亲去世,剩下母亲照顾家庭,独自老去。母亲总是怀念过去,作者对此感到不耐烦。某天作者忙碌时突然意识到自己忽视了母亲,于是向母亲道歉,并用行动弥补了过去的亏欠。段落续写:1. 由第一段首句内容"妈妈默默地盯着我,一副委屈的样子"可知,第一段可描写母亲的神情带给作者的感受。2. 由第二段首句内容"然后,突然间,我停住了"可知,第二段可描写作者向母亲道歉,并用行动弥补了过去的亏欠。续写线索:母亲委屈——作者伤心——作者道歉——作者弥补——作者陪伴母亲。写作时要注意准确运用时态,上下文意思要连贯,符合句际间和段际间的逻辑关系,尽量使用自己熟悉的词汇及句式,同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型来提升文章的档次。
【点评】1. 本篇书面表达表达上要点齐全,上下文连贯,使用了一定数量的句式结构,让句子表达更加生动传神,同时使用了较多的高级词汇和固定短语,提高了文章的档次,体现了对英语书面表达熟练的驾驭能力。 例如:It was as if she was silently accusing me of neglecting her, of forgetting
the bond we once shared.(运用了as if引导的表语从句以及省略了that/which引导的限制性定语从句);The sight of her like that pierced my heart, reminding me of all the times I had been
too busy or too preoccupied to give her the attention she deserved. (运用了现在分词短语作状语以及省略了that引导的限制性定语从句);I realized then that my actions had caused her pain,
and I felt a deep sense of regret.(运用了that引导的宾语从句以及and连接的并列句);I halted in
my tracks, mid-stride, as if a switch had flipped inside me.(运用了as if引导的方式状语从句);So, I turned around and walked back to the table where Mom sat, I sat down next to her, took her hand in mine, and apologized sincerely for my neglect.(运用了where引导的限制性定语从句)。
2. 读后续写步骤如下
(1)精读文章,确定文章线索。每篇文章都有各自独特的写作思路,通过精读文章,找到该篇文章的写作线索,比如是以时间为线索还是以空间为线索等,这样有利于考生"顺藤摸瓜"。
(2)仔细审题,明确续写要求。一般短文后面的"注意"都有对此短文续写的具体要求,如字数限制、使用几处下划线关键词语、续写段落的首句提示,这样考生能做到"心中有数"。
(3)回扣原文,揣摩续写思路。根据文章后面的要求,再次快速回读短文,抓住文章的思路,结合段首的提示语,最终确定续写段落的思路,同时结合文章划线词语提示,确定续写段落的内容。
(4)拟写草稿,修改错词病句。在确定了思路和内容之后,最关键的就是结合提示语或者文中划线的关键词语拟写草稿。拟写时,注意句子结构的多样性、语言的丰富性,并通过句与句之间连接词的正确使用,使上下文连贯。
(5)标出续写部分中使用到的原材料中标有下划线的关键词语。这一点可以帮助考生检查关键词语的使用情况并根据情况做出修改。最后在誊写文字时,务必做到字迹工整与清晰。3. 在做此类试题时,读到适当的位置,可以短暂停顿,根据已读部分文章的脉络,对文章进行发散思维,设想可能的几种结尾;经常实施微型化训练,也就是对所读文章的某一段落进行设想。根据某段落的首句提示,结合文章的上文对该段进行合理设想,推断该段可能要讲述的内容。

In Bududa, a lush yet landslide-prone district of eastern Uganda, Mary Butsina and a growing number of other women farmers are building their livelihoods around coffee. "I'm supporting all of my 10 children with it." says the 36-year-old, holding a red bucket.
From farming stock, Mary first went to work with her father at the age of 10. Profits from his coffee crop covered her school fees. She married into coffee too, with her husband giving her 100 trees as a wedding present. But Mary's since planted more than 300 herself and joined a women's cooperative. "The aim was to reduce the dependence of women on men in coffee." Mary says, though husbands are allowed to join too—as they tend to own the coffee plantations and support their wives. "More women have started to plant their own coffee." she says.
Mary rises early every day to pick the coffee cherries. "It's hard work but when you concentrate it can become easy." says Mary. After gathering the ripe fruit, she puts it in a bucket of water to weed out the unhealthy cherries. The beans are then fermented (发酵) in water for at least two days before being laid out to dry in direct sunlight. Once dried, the beans are gathered up and later collected by Endiro Coffee, a social enterprise working with women-led, organic farms. The coffee is later milled, roasted and ground, ready for use.
It hasn't been an easy journey for the Bududa farmers, who've faced annual landslides for the past 15 years. In 2018, Mary's mother's house was destroyed and she lost some of her coffee plantations. She dreams of living in a solidly built house with water nearby, so she doesn't have to trek (跋涉) a long way to fetch it-but these will take time to save for. "I've worked a lot and I don't want to stop, but I want my money to work for me." she says.
4.What role does coffee play in Mary's hometown
A.A significant source of income.
B.A bond of love and marriage.
C.A symbol of wealth and status.
D.A barrier to frequent landslides.
5.How does the women's cooperative benefit female coffee farmers
A.By providing them with high quality trees.
B.By accessing them to better sales channels.
C.By liberating them from their husbands.
D.By enabling them to control their business.
6.Why is the processing of coffee beans mentioned in Paragraph 3
A.To display Mary's technical proficiency.
B.To prove the high quality of Ugandan coffee.
C.To highlight Mary's dedication and diligence.
D.To emphasize the difficulties of planting coffee.
7.What does Mary mean in the last sentence of the text
A.She plans to expand her coffee planting business.
B.She desires to achieve economic independence.
C.She thinks the road to happiness is still distant.
D.She believes her hard work will finally pay off.
【答案】4.A
5.D

A good story. That's what influences our choice to buy a book the most. Right Some of the biggest-selling novels of all time just so happened to be attached to major publishers. Indeed, any reading lover will be familiar with the countless publishing houses that have brought brilliant works to the market. So in theory, perhaps a publisher does matter.
Every time you read a book that you enjoy, you likely look at the publisher attached to it. That name is a signal that they will produce other content that fits with that same style. It makes a lot of sense to continue to purchase texts from a company that is telling the kinds of stories that you enjoy the most. Consumer habits are thus based on trust that a publisher will be consistent in the books they deliver and that investing time in them is more reliable than an untested source.
The strength of the author themselves can also play into that. After all, well-liked authors are often signed to a book deal with a select few publishers, strengthening the brand further.
Of course, a publisher would be nothing without its logo, which is a major call-to-arms for all fans of the brand. The top publishers in the world instantly recognizable imagery, which catch the attention while summing up the name of a brand in an instant. That thus builds our association with a given name. The fun penguin shape of Penguin Random House is so iconic, for example, that it could not be confused with any other publishing business.
There might be a place for those indie (独立经营的) book companies, with occasional stories breaking through and forcing people to take notice. In truth that's far less common than you expect. Expert Cassandra Davis, however, provides a hopeful insight. "Indie bookshops are more likely to stock an indie publisher's books, especially if the author is local to the bookshop." She says. Therefore, supporting local bookshops is a vital way to keep the indie industry alive and change these trends.
8.Which of the following is not a strategy for a publisher to promote its brand
A.Maintaining consistent publishing style.
B.Contracting with renowned writers.
C.Offering discounts to repeat customers.
D.Designing a distinctive trademark.
9.What is the author's attitude towards indie publishers
A.Optimistic. B.Sympathetic. C.Objective. D.Indifferent.
10.What does the underlined words "these trends" in the last paragraph refer to
A.Dominance of major publishers.
B.Lack of attention to excellent books.
C.Depression of local bookshops.
D.Stability of consumers' preferences.
11.Which of the following is the best title for the text
A.Should We Judge a Book by Its Publisher
B.Do Publishers Influence Our Reading Choices
C.Why Do We Choose the Same Publisher Continuously
D.What Advantages Do Major Publishers Have Over Indie Ones
【答案】8.C

【知识点】推理判断题;词义猜测题;细节理解题;说明文;社会现象类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,文章主要讲的是出版商会影响我们的阅读选择的原因。
【点评】考查阅读理解。本篇文章涉及细节理解题,推理判断题,词义猜测题和主旨大意题四种题型。细节理解题要求考生能在快速阅读文章的同时,从中获取某些特定的直接信息或理解特定信息的意义。做细节理解题时,要根据题干中的关键词,找准相关句、段的内容,再仔细对照,不符合原文意义的选项要首先排除,反之,则是正确选项。做推理判断题时,要求考生不能凭主观臆断推测或妄加猜测,必须忠实于原文,以材料所提供的相关事实和线索为依据,使做出的推理合乎文意。需要注意:审清题目要求;锁定关键信息;挖掘隐含信息;排除干扰选项;把握语境情感;逻辑推理分析。词义猜测题主要考查考生根据上下文推测词义和语义的能力,突出考查对语境的分析和把握能力。常见的猜词法有:利用上下文语境。猜测任何词义都离不开上下文,所以要借助上下文对需要猜测的词或短语进行合乎逻辑的推测。 利用定义或解释性的线索。阅读文章中的有些生词往往在其后会有对该词进行解释说明的短语或句子,利用它们猜词义较容易 利用文章的逻辑关系答题。如并列、对比、因果、转折关系等。做主旨大意题时,要求考生抓住每段或每个层次的主要含义进行加工、提炼,通过对语篇结构的分析即对文章内部各层次间的逻辑关系的分析,将每段的主题综合起来,找出文章的中心。
8.细节理解题。根据文章第二段"Every time you read a book that you enjoy, you likely look at the publisher attached to it. That name is a signal that they will produce other content that fits with that same style.(每次你读一本你喜欢的书时,你可能会看它的出版商。这个名字是一个信号,表明他们将生产符合相同风格的其他内容。)"以及第三段"The strength of the author themselves can also play into that. After all, well-liked authors are often signed to a book deal with a select few publishers, strengthening the brand further. (作者自身的实力也会发挥作用。毕竟,受欢迎的作家通常会与少数几家选定的出版商签订出书协议,从而进一步强化其品牌。)"以及第四段"Of course, a publisher would be nothing without its logo, which is a major call-to-arms for all fans of the brand. .(当然,如果没有自己的logo,发行商就什么都不是,而这正是所有品牌粉丝的主要诉求。)"可知出版商推广其品牌的策略是保持一贯的出版风格、与知名作家签约并设计有特色的商标,文章没有提到给回头客提供折扣的策略,所以C项 Offering discounts to repeat customers.(给回头客提供折扣。)不是出版商为了推广其品牌所采取的策略。故选C。
9.推理判断题。根据文章最后一段"There might be a place for those indie (独立经营的) book companies, with occasional stories breaking through and forcing people to take notice. In truth that's far less common than you expect. Expert Cassandra Davis, however, provides a hopeful insight. "Indie bookshops are more likely to stock an indie publisher's books, especially if the author is local to the bookshop." She says. Therefore, supporting local bookshops is a vital way to keep the indie industry alive and change these trends.(独立图书公司可能会有一席之地,偶尔会有一些故事脱颖而出,引起人们的注意。事实上,这种情况比你想象的要少得多。然而,专家卡桑德拉·戴维斯提供了一个充满希望的见解。"独立书店更有可能出售独立出版商的书,尤其是如果作者是本地人。"她说。因此,支持当地书店是保持独立出版业活力和改变这些趋势的重要途径。)"可知在作者看来独立图书公司占有一席之地的机率是非常小的,但是作者又指出专家卡桑德拉 戴维斯提出支持当地书店可以保持独立出版业活力并改变这些趋势,由此可以推知作者对于独立出版商的态度是客观的。故选C。
10.词义猜测题。根据文章最后一段"There might be a place for those indie (独立经营的) book companies, with occasional stories breaking through and forcing people to take notice. In truth that's far less common than you expect. (独立图书公司可能会有一席之地,偶尔会有一些故事脱颖而出,引起人们的注意。事实上,这种情况比你想象的要少得多。)"以及划线词之前"Therefore, supporting local bookshops is a vital way to keep the indie industry alive and change (因此,支持当地书店是保持独立出版业活力和改变的重要途径。)"可知独立图书公司在与主要出版商的竞争中很难有脱颖而出的机会,但是支持当地书店则可以让独立出版业保持活力并有机会脱颖而出,即改变主要出版商占统治地位的局面,所以此处划线词these trends指的是主要出版商的统治地位。故选A。
11.主旨大意题。文章第一段"Some of the biggest-selling novels of all time just so happened to be attached to major publishers. Indeed, any reading lover will be familiar with the countless publishing houses that have brought brilliant works to the market. So in theory, perhaps a publisher does matter.(一些有史以来最畅销的小说恰好是由大出版商出版的。的确,任何一个爱读书的人都不陌生,无数的出版社为市场带来了精彩的作品。所以从理论上讲,也许出版商确实很重要。)"提出出版商确实很重要的话题,文章第二、三以及四段分别从保持一贯的出版风格、与知名作家签约并设计有特色的商标三个方面来说明出版商推广其品牌的策略,文章最后一段指出独立出版商在与主要出版商在市场竞争方面所面临的困难,同时又为其指明了出路,纵观全文,文章主要是在围绕着出版商会影响我们的阅读选择及其原因来展开,所以B项Do Publishers Influence Our Reading Choices (出版商会影响我们的阅读选择吗?)作为文章标题最为合适。故选B。

Humans act with purpose, but much is still unknown about how we become purposeful agents — that is, how we develop the ability to willfully make things happen. In a recent study to explore agency's mysterious roots, we tried to catch infants (婴儿) in the act of discovering their own agency, thereby revealing the process of agency formation.
Researchers place a baby into a cradle with a mobile suspended above. Then a scientist ties one end of a string to the mobile and the other to the infant's foot. Now if the baby moves, the toy will, too. By observing babies in this setup, scientists can watch as the infants learn and recall a simple cause-and-effect interaction: kick a foot and the mobile moves.
As predicted by the researchers, infants kicked significantly more when their foot was tethered (拴住) to the mobile than when it was not. However, when an experimenter pulled the string to make the mobile move instead, infants moved less than when the mobile was at rest. Furthermore, when we freed the babies' foot from the mobile, they kept on kicking at higher rate to make the toy respond — and were visibly frustrated when that did not happen.
Our observations also pointed to a notable pattern: The babies' initial movements consisted of twisting and pushing without clear direction. But once tethered to the mobile, the more intensely they moved, the more their attention was drawn to the effect their kicking had on it. At some point, the infants must have figured out that they had agency, thus the aimless movements became intentional action — a highly coordinated exchange between the tethered infant and the mobile.
The baby-mobile study emphasizes how understanding the relationship between an organism and its environment is essential to uncovering the origins of directed behavior. The experience of agency emerges only when an organism senses it is coupled to its environment. In this way of thinking, the interaction and relationship between the two are crucial for purpose to arise.
12.What can we learn about agency according to the text
A.It is an inborn ability without learning.
B.It embodies in babies the most evidently.
C.It exists in all aspects of our daily life.
D.It is a resonance with our surroundings.
13.How did the researchers make the experiment convincing
A.By predicting multiple possible results.
B.By tracking babies' behaviour precisely.
C.By setting up comparative experiments.
D.By building proper interpretation model.
14.What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about
A.Analysis of experimental phenomena.
B.Supplement to experimental details.
C.Explanation of experimental design.
D.Summary of experimental outcomes.
15.What is the main purpose of the text
A.To uncover the process of agency formation.
B.To report a cutting-edge discovery about agency.
C.To guide people on how to take advantage of agency.
D.To clarify the importance of environment to creatures.
【答案】12.D

We all know someone who holds court wherever they find themselves with amusing stories. For the rest of us, conversation can be trickier. Our editor asked Catherine Blyth, the author of The Art of Conversation for her tips on how to shine — and not get cancelled — at your next small-talk.
Consider what you want from a conversation
16. . In fact, a conversation is usually a way to get something we want, whether that's to making a friend, or to asking someone on a date. Knowing what you want will keep things flowing. "At least, what you can get from a conversation is an interesting adventure with another mind. 17. ." says Blyth.
Guide the other person to help you
"There's nothing more flattering (受宠若惊) than feeling like that you've helped someone," Blyth says. She suggests finding a way to make the other person useful to you. " 18. , that allows you to reveal a bit of yourself while inviting them to help, which is a great way to get conversation started."
Listen attentively and purposefully
Are you listening to understand, or listening to respond That's a perfect question a would-be conversationalist should ask themselves. "A good listener indicates what interests them. 19. . If I'm conversing with someone who makes it all about themselves, I'll gently point that I'm not interested and shift us towards other topics." says Blyth.
Keep your phone out of sight and out of mind
"If you're chatting with someone with your phone next to you, what you're saying is ‘you're only as important as my next notification'," says Blyth. "Whatever you do on a screen isn't a conversation. Problems arises from comparing real conversation to text messaging. 20. . We need to give each other some grace."
A. Seeing the world through the eyes of others is a reward itself
B. People feel bad about conversation because they think it's a performance
C. Your responses should show which topics are interesting and which aren't
D. The best mindset you bring to small-talk is the idea that it's a treasure hunt
E. A direct praise is good, but if it's something like ‘I love that coat, where did you buy it '
F. In a real conversation, you can't look things up, think about how to phrase your thoughts
G. You have to constantly be listening with your ears, your mind, and be conscious of doing so
【答案】16.B;17.A;18.E;19.C;20.F
【知识点】说明文;七选五;日常生活类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,The Art of Conversation一书的作者Catherine Blyth针对谈话提出了一些建议。备选项的中文意思:A. 通过别人的眼睛看世界本身就是一种回报。B. 人们对话感到不舒服,是因为他们认为对话是一种表演。C. 你的回应应该表明哪些话题是有趣的,哪些不是。D. 你对闲聊应采取的最佳心态是,这是一场寻宝之旅。E. 直接赞美是好的,但如果只是像‘我喜欢你的外套,你在哪里买的?' F. 在真正的对话中,你不能查找事情,思考如何表达你的想法 。 G. 你必须不断地用你的耳朵、你的大脑去倾听,并意识到你正在这样做 。
【点评】考查任务型阅读(七选五)。解题时,要求考生注意通读整篇文章,把握整段脉络,理出文章的中心,分析段落之间和段落内部的层次。选项与前后句之间的逻辑关系是确定答案的主要依据。可以从意思、关键词、关联词来分析段落之间以及段落内部的逻辑关系。七选五解题的一些实用技巧如下。第一,快速浏览全文,把握文章主旨。在开始解题前,快速浏览全文,了解文章的大致内容和主题,有助于更好地理解和判断每个选项的合适性。第二,注意段首句和段尾句。段首句往往是对整段的概括或引入,而段尾句则常常是对该段的总结或结论。因此,关注这些句子有助于我们快速了解段落的主旨,从而更好地选择答案。第三,利用上下文语境和逻辑关系进行推断。在选择答案时,要仔细阅读上下文,寻找与选项相关的线索和信息,如关联词、同义词、反义词等。同时,也要根据逻辑关系进行推断,如因果、转折、并列等,从而确定正确答案。
16.下文"In fact, a conversation is usually a way to get something we want, whether that's to making a friend, or to asking someone on a date. (事实上,谈话通常是得到我们想要的东西的一种方式,无论是交朋友,还是邀请某人约会。)"提到谈话通常是得到我们想要的东西的一种方式,结合in fact可知,前文与此处是转折关系,因此推断B项"人们对话感到不舒服,是因为他们认为对话是一种表演。"符合语境,前后文形成对比,故选B。
17.上文"At least, what you can get from a conversation is an interesting adventure with another mind. (至少,你能从谈话中得到的是与另一个人的一次有趣的冒险。)"提到你能从谈话中得到的是与另一个人的一次有趣的冒险,是描述从谈话中得到的好处,A项"通过别人的眼睛看世界本身就是一种回报。"承接上文,符合语境,故选A。
18.上文"She suggests finding a way to make the other person useful to you. (她建议想办法让对方对你有用。)"提到Blyth建议想办法让对方对你有用,下文"that allows you to reveal a bit of yourself while inviting them to help, which is a great way to get conversation started. (这可以让你在邀请他们帮忙的同时展示自己,这是开始对话的好方法。)"提到某种方法的好处,故空处应是提及一种具体的方法,E项"直接赞美是好的,但如果只是像‘我喜欢你的外套,你在哪里买的?'"符合语境,故选E。
19.上文"A good listener indicates what interests them. (一个好的倾听者表明他们感兴趣的是什么。)"提到一个好的倾听者表明他们感兴趣的是什么,C项"你的回应应该表明哪些话题是有趣的,哪些不是。"承接上文,讲述倾听者如何表明是否感兴趣,符合语境,故选C。
20.上文"Whatever you do on a screen isn't a conversation. Problems arises from comparing real conversation to text messaging. (你在屏幕上做的任何事情都不是对话。将真实对话与短信进行比较会产生问题。)"提到,真实对话与短信不同,将两者进行比较会产生问题,F项"在真正的对话中,你不能查找事情,思考如何表达你的想法 。"进一步阐述两者的不同之处,故选F。

【知识点】名词辨析;形容词的词义辨析;副词的辨析;故事阅读类;记叙文
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。本文通过叙述Juleus Ghunta的成长经历,特别是他从几乎无法阅读到成为儿童书籍作者和获奖诗人的转变过程,展现了个人奋斗和一位年轻教师对他成长的影响。
【点评】考查完形填空。首先要通读一遍文章,跳过缺失的单词,再根据上下文来判断所缺失的单词的含义,最后对选项进行对比分析,选出正确选项。完形填空旨在测试学生的语言综合运用能力。一些实用的解题策略如下。一、通读全文,把握大意。在开始答题之前,应先通读全文,了解文章的主题和大致内容。这样有助于理解作者的意图,把握文章的整体思路,为后续的填空选择提供正确的方向。二、仔细分析,逐一排查。对于每一个空,要仔细分析所给的选项,逐一排查,选出最符合文意的答案。通常情况下,完形填空中会有几个空白需要填写形容词、副、名词等,要注意所填的词要与句子前后内容相符。三、结合上下文,理解语义。有时候仅从一个空所在的句子很难确定正确的答案,这时需要结合上下文,理解整体的语义环境。通过对前后的语境分析,确定一个合理的答案。四、注意语法结构。完形填空中涉及的语法知识较多,如时态、语态、词性等。在选择答案时,要仔细考虑语法结构是否正确。

Small changes make an ideal library
……
【答案】Small changes make an ideal library
As a student, I am excited about the upcoming renovation of our library. Among the many possible changes, I particularly hope for two improvements.
Firstly, I envision a cozier reading area with soft lighting and comfortable seating. This will create a relaxing atmosphere, encouraging students to immerse themselves in books for longer periods. Secondly, I believe the addition of more electrical outlets and USB charging stations is crucial. With modern devices becoming indispensable for learning, having easy access to charging facilities will be a great convenience.
These small yet significant changes will undoubtedly contribute to making our library an ideal place for learning and exploration.

47.(2024高三上·广州月考) 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Holding Mom's Hand
Technically speaking, my Mom is old-she is in her 70s now. She once used to be a woman full of life and laughter. All of that changed after my Dad passed away about ten years ago. Although they were not what you would call a "lovey dovey" couple, Mom did take his sudden death quite badly. To make matters worse, my brother decided to relocate to another city, while Mom decided to stay behind with her sister.
Whenever my Mom comes over to stay with me for some time (I live with my husband and his parents), she always demands constant attention from me. She generally gets nostalgic (怀旧的) of the good old times we used to spend together discussing pets, books, cooking, or life in general. Sometimes it turned into a complaining session-"You never spare time for me anymore" or "I have become useless to everyone". I always used to retort (反驳) with "Oh, Mom, please don't start all over again" or sometimes rudely remark, "How can you expect me to do the things we used to do together years ago There is no time for such things anymore!" Mom would become silent, probably because she had resigned herself to the way things are now. I could sense I had hurt her but there was little I could do, or so I thought at the time.
Then it struck me-I always try to be nice to people at work. I do random acts of kindness for strangers. I sometimes surprise an old friend with a phone call. But what have I done for my Mom Why is it that I am so reluctant to hold her hands in front of others Is it because I am embarrassed to be labeled as "mama's girl" at my age Well, I am no longer young myself. Is it because I have taken my Mom for granted because her days are done
Today was yet another chaotic day. I was occupied in dealing with my own things, getting ready for work, leaving my Mom to have her breakfast all alone at the table. I had so many things on my mind-the deadline at work, an appointment with my dentist, what to cook for dinner...
注意:(1)续写词数应为150个左右;(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Mom stared at me silently, with a wronged (委屈的) look.
……
Then, all of sudden, I stopped myself.
……
【答案】Mom stared at me silently, with a wronged look. Her eyes, once filled with laughter and life, now held a hint of sadness and disappointment. It was as if she was silently accusing me of neglecting her, of forgetting the bond we once shared. The sight of her like that pierced my heart, reminding me of all the times I had been too busy or too preoccupied to give her the attention she deserved. I realized then that my actions had caused her pain, and I felt a deep sense of regret.
Then, all of sudden, I stopped myself.I halted in my tracks, mid-stride, as if a switch had flipped inside me. So, I turned around and walked back to the table where Mom sat, I sat down next to her, took her hand in mine, and apologized sincerely for my neglect. "Mom, I'm sorry. I know I've been too busy lately and haven't been giving you the time and attention you deserve." Mom's face lit up with a smile, and I could see the sadness in her eyes begin to fade away. From that moment on, I made a conscious effort to spend more quality time with her, to listen to her stories and share in her joys and sorrows.
【知识点】文字式记叙文;读后续写
【解析】【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读文章可知,该篇记叙文以人物为线索展开,讲述了作者的父亲去世,剩下母亲照顾家庭,独自老去。母亲总是怀念过去,作者对此感到不耐烦。某天作者忙碌时突然意识到自己忽视了母亲,于是向母亲道歉,并用行动弥补了过去的亏欠。段落续写:1. 由第一段首句内容"妈妈默默地盯着我,一副委屈的样子"可知,第一段可描写母亲的神情带给作者的感受。2. 由第二段首句内容"然后,突然间,我停住了"可知,第二段可描写作者向母亲道歉,并用行动弥补了过去的亏欠。续写线索:母亲委屈——作者伤心——作者道歉——作者弥补——作者陪伴母亲。写作时要注意准确运用时态,上下文意思要连贯,符合句际间和段际间的逻辑关系,尽量使用自己熟悉的词汇及句式,同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型来提升文章的档次。
【点评】1. 本篇书面表达表达上要点齐全,上下文连贯,使用了一定数量的句式结构,让句子表达更加生动传神,同时使用了较多的高级词汇和固定短语,提高了文章的档次,体现了对英语书面表达熟练的驾驭能力。 例如:It was as if she was silently accusing me of neglecting her, of forgetting
the bond we once shared.(运用了as if引导的表语从句以及省略了that/which引导的限制性定语从句);The sight of her like that pierced my heart, reminding me of all the times I had been
too busy or too preoccupied to give her the attention she deserved. (运用了现在分词短语作状语以及省略了that引导的限制性定语从句);I realized then that my actions had caused her pain,
and I felt a deep sense of regret.(运用了that引导的宾语从句以及and连接的并列句);I halted in
my tracks, mid-stride, as if a switch had flipped inside me.(运用了as if引导的方式状语从句);So, I turned around and walked back to the table where Mom sat, I sat down next to her, took her hand in mine, and apologized sincerely for my neglect.(运用了where引导的限制性定语从句)。
2. 读后续写步骤如下
(1)精读文章,确定文章线索。每篇文章都有各自独特的写作思路,通过精读文章,找到该篇文章的写作线索,比如是以时间为线索还是以空间为线索等,这样有利于考生"顺藤摸瓜"。
(2)仔细审题,明确续写要求。一般短文后面的"注意"都有对此短文续写的具体要求,如字数限制、使用几处下划线关键词语、续写段落的首句提示,这样考生能做到"心中有数"。
(3)回扣原文,揣摩续写思路。根据文章后面的要求,再次快速回读短文,抓住文章的思路,结合段首的提示语,最终确定续写段落的思路,同时结合文章划线词语提示,确定续写段落的内容。
(4)拟写草稿,修改错词病句。在确定了思路和内容之后,最关键的就是结合提示语或者文中划线的关键词语拟写草稿。拟写时,注意句子结构的多样性、语言的丰富性,并通过句与句之间连接词的正确使用,使上下文连贯。
(5)标出续写部分中使用到的原材料中标有下划线的关键词语。这一点可以帮助考生检查关键词语的使用情况并根据情况做出修改。最后在誊写文字时,务必做到字迹工整与清晰。3. 在做此类试题时,读到适当的位置,可以短暂停顿,根据已读部分文章的脉络,对文章进行发散思维,设想可能的几种结尾;经常实施微型化训练,也就是对所读文章的某一段落进行设想。根据某段落的首句提示,结合文章的上文对该段进行合理设想,推断该段可能要讲述的内容。
