It took her around 15 years to finish the traditional Miao costume, as each step was entirely handmade.Inspired by her mother, Cai fell in love with the traditional batik (蜡染) and embroidery (刺绣) techniques. She has been learning these skills from her mother since she was 8. Known as “fingertip ballet”, the batik technique of the Miao ethnic group in Zhijin county, which has a history of more than 2,000 years, was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage last year. According to Cai, “The patterns of the batik are passed down from generation to generation, and the round patterns, which are almost perfect, are all hand-drawn without the use of a ruler.”As an inheritor of the Miao batik skill, Cai shoulders the responsibility to further advance it. Realizing that batik can be adapted to various products, especially souvenirs for tourists, in 2009, she decided to open a company that gathers female embroiderers in her village to produce handmade goods with complicated designs. When they took their embroidery products to a nearby scenic spot to sell, tourists were impressed. In Cai’s mind, the first step to innovating batik design is to add more elements relevant to modern daily life, and the color should be more contemporary.As her business slowly grew, the local government offered her a loan to help her build a three-floor factory. To display complex batik paintings and delicate embroidery patterns, a museum was also established and named a provincial intangible cultural heritage productive protection display base by the provincial department of culture and tourism of Guizhou Province.24. What was unique about the creation of Cai Qun’s wedding dress A. It blended modern fashion designs. B. It required various artisans’ collaboration.C. It was crafted without machines. D. It used imported decorative materials.25. Why did Cai Qun decide to open a company in 2009 A. To compete with local souvenir shops. B. To expand batik’s use in tourist markets.C. To mass-produce traditional costumes quickly. D. To replace ancient techniques with modern tools.26. What can be inferred about Cai Qun’s philosophy regarding cultural heritage preservation A. She prioritizes commercial success over tradition.B. She believes tradition and modernity can coexist.C. She advocates for complete modernization of traditional crafts.D. She believes government intervention is essential for survival.27. Which best describes the attitude of Guizhou’s cultural authorities towards Cai Qun’s work A. Cautious approval with reservations. B. Passive acceptance without engagement.C. Formal recognition with active support. D. Superficial interest with minimal action.CIf you’ve ever caught yourself saying “please” and “thank you” to ChatGPT, you’ re in good company. In an informal online survey, nearly half of the respondents said they are often polite to the artificially intelligent chatbot, and only about 16 percent said they “just give orders.” One participant even wrote “I find myself using please and thanks with ChatGPT because it’s how I would talk to a real person who was helping me.” Why be kind to an unfeeling machine Are there any reasons we should be polite to AI The answer is yes. According to one recent study by a team at Waseda University, using polite words can produce higher-quality responses from AI chatbots. “Please” indicates that what follows is a request, making it easier for AI to know how to respond. But researchers note that excessive politeness can cause AI model’s performance to deteriorate. Ultimately, they recommend using words that involve “moderate politeness,” just like the tone you talk to other people in social interactions.The tone of a prompt, researchers add, could also cause an AI model to pull from linguistically correlative responses when it’s formulating its reply; in other words, AI gives out what you put in. Polite prompts may direct the system to retrieve information from more reliable and credible corners of the Internet, and that in turn gives better or more detailed responses.A little support of the sort that a patient teacher might show toward a struggling pupil may also influence chatbot performance. A paper posted last year by a team of researchers at Google DeepMind found that supportive prompts, such as “Take a deep breath and work on this problem step-by-step,” boost an AI model’s ability to solve math problems that require basic reasoning skills. It is explained that such language may trigger the system to refer to online tutoring sources, which often encourage students to break a problem into parts — thereby causing the algorithm (算法) to do the same.Politeness toward AI is “a sign of respect” — not to a machine but to oneself, says Sherry Turkle, a clinical psychologist and director of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Initiative on Technology and Self. The danger, in her view, is that we might become accustomed to using rude and disrespectful language with AI and then unconsciously act the same way with other human beings. “We have to protect ourselves,” Turkle says, “because we’re the ones that have to form relationships with real people.”28. What do we know from paragraph 1 A. Most people mind their words when using ChatGPT.B. Only a few people give impolite orders to ChatGPT.C. It’s common for people to be polite to AI chatbots.D. People often confuse AI chatbots with real humans.29. What does the underlined word “deteriorate” in paragraph 2 mean A. Improve. B. Decline.C. Stay the same. D. Become unstable.30. How can the tone of prompts influence AI models A. Polite prompts can make AI models respond faster.B. Polite words ensure the accuracy of AI’s responses.C. Rude tones have a huge effect on AI’s algorithm.D. Encouraging words can promote AI’s performance.31. Which statement would Sherry Turkle agree with A. Being polite to AI is a sign of respect for the machine.B. Rudeness to AI will not affect our behavior towards humans.C. We should protect ourselves from becoming too dependent on AI.D. Politeness towards AI helps maintain good human relations.DScience fiction often presents us with planets that speak a single language. However, that humans can express themselves in several thousand languages is a delight. Few would welcome the loss of this variety.Unfortunately, the days in which English shares the planet with thousands of other languages are numbered. A traveler to the future is likely to notice two things about the language landscape of Earth. One, there will be fewer languages. Two, languages will be less complicated than they are today.By 2115, it’s possible that only about 600 languages will be left on the planet as opposed to today’s 6,000. Too often, colonization (殖民) has led to the disappearance of languages: Native speakers are punished for using their own languages. Urbanization has only furthered the destruction by bringing people away from their homelands to cities where a single language rules.In addition, it is easy for speakers to associate larger languages with opportunities and smaller ones with backwardness. Consequently, people stop passing on smaller languages to their children. Few are likely to lead to communities’ raising children in the languages, which is the only way the languages exist as their full selves.However, there are diligent efforts to keep endangered languages from dying. Many communities create new versions of the languages, with smaller vocabularies and simpler grammar. The Irish Gaelic (盖尔语) proudly spoken by today’s English-Gaelic bilinguals (会说两种语言的人) is an example.We may regret to witness the eclipse of a world where 6,000 different languages are spoken, but fortunately, it seems that a large amount of linguistic diversity will be preserved.32. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the first two paragraphs A. More than one language is spoken in science fiction.B. People are uninterested in the loss of languages.C. Languages are likely to be more complex in the future.D. The number of languages in use is on the decline.33. What is a cause of the language variety loss A. The preference for less complicated languages.B. The influence of urbanization on languages.C. The use of native languages by colonists.D. The limitation of using larger languages.34. Why does the author mention the Irish Gaelic in paragraph 5 A. To give an example of promoting Irish culture.B. To prove the drawback of smaller languages.C. To present the effort to prevent Gaelic from disappearing.D. To show the phenomenon of Gaelic becoming simpler.35. What is the article aimed at A. Illustrating how to learn future languages.B. Persuading people to try to use their native languages.C. Discussing the changes of language variety in the future.D. Showing how linguists preserve language diversity.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。The Digital Renminbi: A New Era of PaymentThe Spring Festival is a special occasion for children because they receive red envelopes (hongbao) from elders. While in the past, children used to receive hongbao in person, nowadays they mostly receive them online thanks to mobile payment apps such as Alipay and WeChat. ____36____That’s how the digital renminbi came into being. For users engaged in commercial operations, using digital renminbi saves the cost of handling fees. ____37____ As a pure public service product, the digital renminbi provides circulation services for society and thus has great public welfare value.

This convenience, however, raises concerns about financial security.B. For individuals, it saves them from paying any charges for withdrawing funds.C. The government is actively promoting its use in daily transactions(交易).D. It will also offer the public a more convenient payment instrument.E. This shift facilitated the central bank in creating a new legal tender for online transactions.F. Some experts believe it may eventually replace traditional currencies.G. Yet the promotion and application of the digital renminbi face some challenges.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。This week Surgeon General Vivek H.

Over the years, he has performed hundreds of rescues. He says giving advice that prevents people getting into trouble is preferable to carrying out rescues. “It’s the best job in the world,” he said. “You’re working and helping people. What could be better ” Now he patrols more than 240 beaches across the UK. Lewis laughed when asked if he had seen many changes. “Our equipment in 2024 includes jet skis, rescue boats and quad bikes. When I started, we had a T-shirt, swimming trunks, a swimming hat, a coat if you were lucky and a rescue tube. It was really very different.”His story started in 1965 when he was jobless. He travelled to the UK and was spending a vacation on a seaside resort. To enjoy himself, he completed a 400m swim in under 7.5 minutes and did a 25m swim underwater and a 25-metre surface swim consecutively in under 50 seconds and ran 200m along the beach in under 40 seconds. He had so much fun doing those exercises when three children got into trouble while swimming. There was a combination of wind and a lively spring tide. One of them was being hurled into a rock with severe cuts. The other two were being “knocked around” by the waves.注意:1. 续写词数应为 150 左右;2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。Without thinking twice, Lewis dived into the water not wearing any swimming equipment.___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________When learning that he was a keen swimmer the police officer suggested he get his lifesaving certificate.___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________贵阳一中2023级高二年级教学质量监测卷(四)高二英语试卷注意事项:1. 答题前, 考生务必用黑色碳素笔将自己的姓名、准考证号、考场号、座位号在答题卡上填写清楚。2. 每小题选出答案后, 用2B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。在试题卷上作答无效。3. 考试结束后, 请将答题卡交回。满分150分, 考试用时120分钟。第一部分 听力(共两节, 满分30分)第一节(共5小题; 每小题1.5分, 满分7.5分)听下面5段对话, 每段对话后有一个小题, 从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后, 你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题, 每段对话仅读一遍。1. 【此处可播放相关音频,请去附件查看】What will the woman probably do next A.

Of course, our big game is this weekend, and a lot of you — well, I hope all of you — are looking forward to it. Anyway, I want to tell you my favorite quote, one that I heard when I was in school. “Education is what remains after one has forgotten what one has learned in school.” This phrase is from a really smart guy, Albert Einstein. In my job, I work with athletes, but I always tell them not to forget their studies, too. Appreciate these days that you have to study and learn. That’s what school is about. Make the most of it. Have fun with your friends, be sociable at get-togethers, go to football games...But just be sure to get your homework done and listen and participate in class. You’re headed for bigger and better things. Some say college is a waste of time, but I don’t think so. There are things you learn in the process of learning that are priceless. There’s an education that goes on beyond what we read in textbooks and listen to in lectures. Life is one big educational process. And that’s what Einstein was trying to say.

It took her around 15 years to finish the traditional Miao costume, as each step was entirely handmade.Inspired by her mother, Cai fell in love with the traditional batik (蜡染) and embroidery (刺绣) techniques. She has been learning these skills from her mother since she was 8. Known as “fingertip ballet”, the batik technique of the Miao ethnic group in Zhijin county, which has a history of more than 2,000 years, was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage last year. According to Cai, “The patterns of the batik are passed down from generation to generation, and the round patterns, which are almost perfect, are all hand-drawn without the use of a ruler.”As an inheritor of the Miao batik skill, Cai shoulders the responsibility to further advance it. Realizing that batik can be adapted to various products, especially souvenirs for tourists, in 2009, she decided to open a company that gathers female embroiderers in her village to produce handmade goods with complicated designs. When they took their embroidery products to a nearby scenic spot to sell, tourists were impressed. In Cai’s mind, the first step to innovating batik design is to add more elements relevant to modern daily life, and the color should be more contemporary.As her business slowly grew, the local government offered her a loan to help her build a three-floor factory. To display complex batik paintings and delicate embroidery patterns, a museum was also established and named a provincial intangible cultural heritage productive protection display base by the provincial department of culture and tourism of Guizhou Province.24. What was unique about the creation of Cai Qun’s wedding dress A. It blended modern fashion designs. B. It required various artisans’ collaboration.C. It was crafted without machines. D.

In an informal online survey, nearly half of the respondents said they are often polite to the artificially intelligent chatbot, and only about 16 percent said they “just give orders.” One participant even wrote “I find myself using please and thanks with ChatGPT because it’s how I would talk to a real person who was helping me.” Why be kind to an unfeeling machine Are there any reasons we should be polite to AI The answer is yes. According to one recent study by a team at Waseda University, using polite words can produce higher-quality responses from AI chatbots. “Please” indicates that what follows is a request, making it easier for AI to know how to respond. But researchers note that excessive politeness can cause AI model’s performance to deteriorate. Ultimately, they recommend using words that involve “moderate politeness,” just like the tone you talk to other people in social interactions.The tone of a prompt, researchers add, could also cause an AI model to pull from linguistically correlative responses when it’s formulating its reply; in other words, AI gives out what you put in. Polite prompts may direct the system to retrieve information from more reliable and credible corners of the Internet, and that in turn gives better or more detailed responses.A little support of the sort that a patient teacher might show toward a struggling pupil may also influence chatbot performance. A paper posted last year by a team of researchers at Google DeepMind found that supportive prompts, such as “Take a deep breath and work on this problem step-by-step,” boost an AI model’s ability to solve math problems that require basic reasoning skills. It is explained that such language may trigger the system to refer to online tutoring sources, which often encourage students to break a problem into parts — thereby causing the algorithm (算法) to do the same.Politeness toward AI is “a sign of respect” — not to a machine but to oneself, says Sherry Turkle, a clinical psychologist and director of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Initiative on Technology and Self. The danger, in her view, is that we might become accustomed to using rude and disrespectful language with AI and then unconsciously act the same way with other human beings. “We have to protect ourselves,” Turkle says, “because we’re the ones that have to form relationships with real people.”28. What do we know from paragraph 1 A. Most people mind their words when using ChatGPT.B. Only a few people give impolite orders to ChatGPT.C. It’s common for people to be polite to AI chatbots.D. People often confuse AI chatbots with real humans.29. What does the underlined word “deteriorate” in paragraph 2 mean A. Improve. B. Decline.C. Stay the same. D. Become unstable.30. How can the tone of prompts influence AI models A. Polite prompts can make AI models respond faster.B. Polite words ensure the accuracy of AI’s responses.C. Rude tones have a huge effect on AI’s algorithm.D. Encouraging words can promote AI’s performance.31. Which statement would Sherry Turkle agree with A. Being polite to AI is a sign of respect for the machine.B. Rudeness to AI will not affect our behavior towards humans.C. We should protect ourselves from becoming too dependent on AI.D. Politeness towards AI helps maintain good human relations.【答案】28. C 29. B 30. D 31. D【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了人们对人工智能聊天机器人有礼貌很常见,并阐述了对人工智能保持礼貌能提升其回复质量、促进其表现,还利于维护良好的人际关系。【28题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段中“In an informal online survey, nearly half of the respondents said they are often polite to the artificially intelligent chatbot, and only about 16 percent said they ‘just give orders.’ (在一项非正式的在线调查中,近一半的受访者表示他们经常对人工智能聊天机器人有礼貌,只有约16%的人表示他们‘只是下命令’)”可知,近一半的人经常对人工智能聊天机器人有礼貌,只有约16%的人会下命令,这说明人们对人工智能聊天机器人有礼貌是很常见的行为。故选C项。【29题详解】词句猜测题。根据第二段中“But researchers note that excessive politeness can cause AI model’s performance to deteriorate. Ultimately, they recommend using words that involve ‘moderate politeness’ (但研究人员指出,过度礼貌会导致人工智能模型的表现deteriorate。最终,他们建议使用‘适度礼貌’的语言)”可知,研究人员建议“适度礼貌”,说明前面提到的“过度礼貌”有不好的影响,导致人工智能模型的表现差。由此推知,划线词deteriorate的意思是“变差、下降”,与B项“Decline”意思相近。故选B项。【30题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段中“A paper posted last year by a team of researchers at Google DeepMind found that supportive prompts, such as ‘Take a deep breath and work on this problem step by step,’ boost an AI model’s ability to solve math problems that require basic reasoning skills. (谷歌DeepMind的一组研究人员去年发表的一篇论文发现,鼓励性的提示,如‘深呼吸,一步一步地解决这个问题’,可以提高人工智能模型解决需要基本推理技能的数学问题的能力)”可知,鼓励性的话语能促进人工智能的表现。故选D项。【31题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Politeness toward AI is ‘a sign of respect’ — not to a machine but to oneself, Sherry Turkle, a clinical psychologist and director of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Initiative on Technology and Self. The danger, in her view, is that we might become accustomed to using rude and disrespectful language with AI and then unconsciously act the same way with other human beings. ‘We have to protect ourselves,’ Turkle says, ‘because we’re the ones that have to form relationships with real people.’ (临床心理学家、麻省理工学院‘科技与自我’倡议项目主任Sherry Turkle指出,对人工智能保持礼貌是‘尊重的表现’——这份尊重并非给予机器,而是给予自己。她认为潜在危险在于,我们可能逐渐习惯用粗鲁无礼的言语对待AI,进而在不知不觉中以同样方式对待他人。‘我们必须保护自己,’Turkle强调,‘因为需要与现实人类建立关系的正是我们自己。’)”可推知,Sherry Turkle认为,对人工智能有礼貌有助于我们不把对人工智能的粗鲁带到与人交往中,从而维护良好的人际关系。故选D项。DScience fiction often presents us with planets that speak a single language. However, that humans can express themselves in several thousand languages is a delight. Few would welcome the loss of this variety.Unfortunately, the days in which English shares the planet with thousands of other languages are numbered. A traveler to the future is likely to notice two things about the language landscape of Earth. One, there will be fewer languages. Two, languages will be less complicated than they are today.By 2115, it’s possible that only about 600 languages will be left on the planet as opposed to today’s 6,000. Too often, colonization (殖民) has led to the disappearance of languages: Native speakers are punished for using their own languages. Urbanization has only furthered the destruction by bringing people away from their homelands to cities where a single language rules.In addition, it is easy for speakers to associate larger languages with opportunities and smaller ones with backwardness. Consequently, people stop passing on smaller languages to their children. Few are likely to lead to communities’ raising children in the languages, which is the only way the languages exist as their full selves.However, there are diligent efforts to keep endangered languages from dying. Many communities create new versions of the languages, with smaller vocabularies and simpler grammar. The Irish Gaelic (盖尔语) proudly spoken by today’s English-Gaelic bilinguals (会说两种语言的人) is an example.We may regret to witness the eclipse of a world where 6,000 different languages are spoken, but fortunately, it seems that a large amount of linguistic diversity will be preserved.32. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the first two paragraphs A. More than one language is spoken in science fiction.B. People are uninterested in the loss of languages.C. Languages are likely to be more complex in the future.D. The number of languages in use is on the decline.33. What is a cause of the language variety loss A. The preference for less complicated languages.B. The influence of urbanization on languages.C. The use of native languages by colonists.D. The limitation of using larger languages.34. Why does the author mention the Irish Gaelic in paragraph 5 A. To give an example of promoting Irish culture.B. To prove the drawback of smaller languages.C. To present the effort to prevent Gaelic from disappearing.D. To show the phenomenon of Gaelic becoming simpler.35. What is the article aimed at A. Illustrating how to learn future languages.B. Persuading people to try to use their native languages.C. Discussing the changes of language variety in the future.D. Showing how linguists preserve language diversity.【答案】32. D 33. B 34. C 35. C【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章指出地球上语言种类在减少且会趋于简单,分析了语言多样性流失的原因,也提及人们为保护濒危语言所做的努力。【32题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段中“Unfortunately, the days in which English shares the planet with thousands of other languages are numbered. A traveler to the future is likely to notice two things about the language landscape of Earth. One, there will be fewer languages. Two, languages will be less complicated than they are today. (不幸的是,英语与其他数千种语言共存于地球的日子屈指可数了。一个前往未来的旅行者可能会注意到地球语言景观的两件事。其一,语言的数量会减少。其二,语言会比现在更简单)”可知,未来地球上使用的语言数量会减少,故D项“The number of languages in use is on the decline.(使用的语言数量正在减少)”是正确表述。故选D项。【33题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段中“Urbanization has only furthered the destruction by bringing people away from their homelands to cities where a single language rules. (城市化只会进一步加剧这种破坏,它把人们从家乡带到以单一语言为主导的城市)”可知,城市化对语言的影响是语言多样性流失的一个原因。故选B项。【34题详解】推理判断题。根据第五段“However, there are diligent efforts to keep endangered languages from dying. Many communities create new versions of the languages, with smaller vocabularies and simpler grammar. The Irish Gaelic (盖尔语) proudly spoken by today’s English-Gaelic bilinguals (会说两种语言的人) is an example. (然而,人们正在努力防止濒危语言消亡。许多社区创造了这些语言的新版本,词汇量更小,语法更简单。如今说英语-盖尔语的双语者自豪地说的爱尔兰盖尔语就是一个例子)”可知,作者提到爱尔兰盖尔语是为了举例说明人们为防止语言消失所做的努力。故选C项。【35题详解】推理判断题。通读全文,结合第二段中“A traveler to the future is likely to notice two things about the language landscape of Earth. One, there will be fewer languages. Two, languages will be less complicated than they are today. (一个前往未来的旅行者可能会注意到地球语言景观的两件事。其一,语言的数量会减少。其二,语言会比现在更简单)”、第三段中“By 2115, it’s possible that only about 600 languages will be left on the planet as opposed to today’s 6,000. (到2115年,地球上可能只剩下大约600种语言,而现在有6000种)”和最后一段“We may regret to witness the eclipse of a world where 6,000 different languages are spoken, but fortunately, it seems that a large amount of linguistic diversity will be preserved. (我们可能会遗憾地目睹一个使用6000种不同语言的世界的消逝,但幸运的是,似乎大量的语言多样性将得以保留)”可知,文章围绕未来语言数量的变化、语言复杂程度的变化以及语言多样性的现状和保护等方面进行阐述。所以这篇文章的目的是讨论未来语言多样性的变化。故选C项。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。The Digital Renminbi: A New Era of PaymentThe Spring Festival is a special occasion for children because they receive red envelopes (hongbao) from elders.

Over the years, he has performed hundreds of rescues. He says giving advice that prevents people getting into trouble is preferable to carrying out rescues. “It’s the best job in the world,” he said. “You’re working and helping people. What could be better ” Now he patrols more than 240 beaches across the UK. Lewis laughed when asked if he had seen many changes. “Our equipment in 2024 includes jet skis, rescue boats and quad bikes. When I started, we had a T-shirt, swimming trunks, a swimming hat, a coat if you were lucky and a rescue tube. It was really very different.”His story started in 1965 when he was jobless. He travelled to the UK and was spending a vacation on a seaside resort. To enjoy himself, he completed a 400m swim in under 7.5 minutes and did a 25m swim underwater and a 25-metre surface swim consecutively in under 50 seconds and ran 200m along the beach in under 40 seconds. He had so much fun doing those exercises when three children got into trouble while swimming. There was a combination of wind and a lively spring tide. One of them was being hurled into a rock with severe cuts. The other two were being “knocked around” by the waves.注意:1. 续写词数应为 150 左右;2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。Without thinking twice, Lewis dived into the water not wearing any swimming equipment.___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________When learning that he was a keen swimmer, the police officer suggested he get his lifesaving certificate.___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________【答案】范文Without thinking twice, Lewis dived into the water not wearing any swimming equipment. Fighting the churning waves, he reached the injured child first, gripping the boy’s arm to pull him away from the jagged rock. Blood streaked the water, but Lewis stayed calm, his powerful strokes cutting through the tide. Depositing the child onshore, he raced back. The other two, panicking, clung to each other as waves dragged them deeper. Lewis dived underwater, surfacing behind them, and guided both toward the beach, his earlier training ensuring precision. Exhausted, he collapsed beside the trio just as lifeguards arrived. A nearby police officer, witnessing the rescue, approached Lewis, eyes wide with admiration.When learning that he was a keen swimmer, the police officer suggested he get his lifesaving certificate. Lewis hesitated — until the officer insisted, “You’ve got a gift. Use it.” Within weeks, Lewis earned the certification, and the resort, hearing of his heroism, offered him a lifeguard position. Decades later, he still smiles recalling that day: saving lives gave him a life. Children he rescued often return, now adults, thanking him with hugs. “Love circles back,” Lewis says, watching families play in the waves. His job, born from chance and courage, became a lifetime of purpose — proof that kindness anchors the soul.【解析】【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了74岁的刘易斯 26岁起当救生员,救过数百人。1965年他失业度假时,遇三名孩子溺水,赤手将他们救起,后在警察建议下获救生证书并成为救生员。他认为预防危险胜过救援,其工作赋予生命意义。【详解】1.段落续写:①由第一段首句内容“刘易斯不假思索地跳进了水里,没有穿任何游泳装备”可知,第一段可描写刘易斯救人的经过。②由第二段首句内容“当得知他是个游泳好手时,警察建议他去拿救生证书”可知,第二段可描写刘易斯获得救生证书以及感悟。2.续写线索:刘易斯跳入水里——救出孩子——警官欣赏——警官提出建议——刘易斯取得证书——刘易斯感悟3.词汇激活行为类①倒下:collapse/fall down②指导:guide/instruct③到达:arrive/reach情绪类①疲惫:exhausted/worn out②感谢:thank/show gratitude to【点睛】[高分句型1] Exhausted, he collapsed beside the trio just as lifeguards arrived.(运用了as引导时间状语从句)[高分句型2] His job, born from chance and courage, became a lifetime of purpose — proof that kindness anchors the soul.(运用了that引导同位语从句) 展开更多...... 收起↑ 资源列表 贵州省贵阳市第一中学2024-2025学年高二下学期质量监测卷(四)英语试题(含听力)(原卷版).docx 贵州省贵阳市第一中学2024-2025学年高二下学期质量监测卷(四)英语试题(含听力)(解析版).docx 贵阳一中2023级高二年级教学质量监测卷(四)英语听力——已编辑.mp3
