（2024高二上·湛江期中）"With the passing of Chinese scientist Yuan Longping, China and the world have lost one greatest agricultural scientists," said Kenneth Quinn, president of the World Food Prize Foundation (基金会). Quinn also shared his memory of the "father of hybrid rice" in an interview with Xinhua on Sunday.
Quinn first met Yuan in October 2004, when Yuan traveled to Des Moines in the U.S. state of Iowa to receive the World Food Prize. As they walked out of the airport, Quinn received a call and stepped aside to speak. When he turned back a minute or two later, he lost Yuan. "I had never before ‘lost' a laureate (贵人)," he said. After an anxious search, he found Professor Yuan surrounded by a group of smiling graduate students from Iowa State University who so admired him that they wanted to take him off for a meal and conversation.
Quinn admired Yuan as a teacher. "He always had time to answer questions and speak with young scientists and students. The American high school students we sent to his research center each year always returned filled with knowledge and a deep desire to learn more."
In Quinn's eyes, Yuan was incredibly modest, never seeking fame, and focused only on hard work and results that could help lift people out of poverty. With a ‘down to earth' attitude, Yuan greatly reduced hunger and provided farmers with surplus (多余的) income through his discovery of hybrid rice.
Learning of Yuan's passing away on Saturday, Quinn issued a statement to send his deepest sympathy to Yuan's family and colleagues. "Professor Yuan Longping, who was truly beloved in his country and by all of us who knew him, will be greatly missed. His legacy will provide inspiration to generations far into the future, in China and across the world," Quinn said in the statement.

("他总是有时间回答问题，并与年轻的科学家和学生交谈。我们每年派往他的研究中心的美国高中生总是满载而归，并渴望了解更多。")"可知，袁隆平很在意年轻人的学习和发展。故选B。
6．词义猜测题。根据第四段"With a ‘down to earth' attitude, Yuan greatly reduced hunger and provided farmers with surplus (多余的) income through his discovery of hybrid rice. (本着"……"的态度，袁隆平通过发现杂交水稻，大大减少了饥饿，并为农民提供了剩余收入。)"可知，down to earth是袁隆平的一种态度，结合"In Quinn's eyes, Yuan was incredibly modest, never seeking fame, and focused only on hard work and results that could help lift people out of poverty. (在奎因眼中，袁隆平非常谦虚，从不求名，只专注于努力工作和能够帮助人们摆脱贫困的成果。)"可知，袁隆平的态度是很务实的，意为"脚踏实地"，与realistic接近，故选D。

（2024高二上·湛江期中）The home of the future won't be completely different and we will be living in houses and flats just as we do today. But people will want to shape their homes to match their dreams. No two homes will be the same. People will be able to buy "house kits" containing a basic house structure, with movable walls, doors and windows. They will put together the different parts to create the home they want.
Many jobs that we do today will disappear, others will still exist but will change and new jobs will be created. Skilled workers such as builders, gardeners and electricians won't disappear because machines can't replace them. Teachers will still exist because students need human contact.

The medical technology revolution and space travel will create new jobs which we can only imagine today.
Space holidays will develop in the future, but these holidays won't be for everyone because they won't be cheap. Short space trips will develop first;then space hotels will orbit the earth where it will be possible to have a longer vacation. By the end of the next century, there will have been holiday centres on the moon with leisure facilities (休闲设施) for families.
Paper won't exist in the future. Instead, there will be e paper which people will be able to use over and over again. This will develop in order to save natural resources. E newspapers and e magazines will replace traditional newspapers and magazines and we will download information and news articles from the Internet every day onto our reusable paper.
The laws of physics tell us that the Earth is going to disappear some time in the future. This isn't going to happen tomorrow but scientists predict that it will happen in five billion years when our sun explodes. We will have to explore the universe and find another home. At some point in the distant future, either we stay on the Earth and die with it, or we leave and move to another planet. There won't be any other choice.

五、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。
（2024高二上·湛江期中）Most of us agree that life's real education happens outside the classroom.　16． 　 However, they are not the only ones. In fact, traveling is the best way to learn things. Here are some reasons why traveling is the best form of education.
You learn history.　17． 　 All that was really cool. However, nothing beats traveling to historic landmarks and exploring your way around a city's history and culture. When you visit museums, palaces and galleries, the entire nation's history comes out right in front of you. Learning about different dynasties, conflicts and changes is so much easier when you actually explore a nation.
You learn social skills. You may be shy and find it difficult to engage yourself socially. But traveling will change that as things like talking to strangers are not an option but a necessity during travels. Taking some social skill courses is useful. However, you can achieve it by traveling your way to a wonderful place on your own.　18． 　
You learn to do new things. When you are traveling, you are forced to do plenty of new things.　19． 　 Therefore, you must learn to be able to adapt to a new learning environment in a very short time. It also helps in your overall learning as well.
　20． 　 Probably the most important aspect of education that travel helps is your education about yourself. By traveling, you realize your true potential, the things that you really enjoy and the person who you really are. Without travel, you probably have a very limited understanding of yourself. And you may even be completely unaware of your real personality.
A. You learn about yourself.
B. You learn a lot by chatting.
C. You are out of your comfort or familiar situation.
D. You'll learn much better than through such courses.
E. You can study about the major historical events in your history class.
F. Classrooms with teachers and textbooks are of course one way to learn.
G. This helps you meet a lot of new people and experience some exciting things.
【答案】16．F；17．E；18．D；19．C；20．A
【知识点】说明文；七选五；旅游观光类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了为什么旅行是最佳教育形式的原因。备选项的中文意思：A. 你会了解你自己。
B. 你通过聊天能学到很多东西。
C. 你脱离了自己舒适或熟悉的环境。
D. 你会比通过这类课程学得好得多。
E. 你可以在历史课上学习重大历史事件。
F. 有老师和教材的课堂当然是一种学习方式。
G. 这有助于你结识很多新朋友，体验一些令人兴奋的事情。
【点评】考查任务型阅读（七选五）。解题技巧如下：1. 看首段，跳过空格快速通读全篇，了解文章大意。首段的末句一般是全文的主题所在，首段的末句对于快速掌握文章的主题具有重要意义。2. 首先快速浏览一遍几个备选答案，先确定哪个选项适合放在文章的什么位置。3. 精读空格前后两句，利用各种衔接手段选择正确的选项填入空格。七选五空出的是整个句子，而这些句子与句子之间，必然有一种联系，因此我们可以通过选项中某个名词或动词跟空前或空后的一致性或者相关性来确定这两个句子之间有一种关联性，从而选择正确的答案。考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。4. 看选项，找出与空前空后句中心词同义，近义或相关性的词语。实现关键词的对接，先易后难，各个突破。此外要通过句子的逻辑关系或句子的标点来判断该句在文章的位置。5. 解题的关键是能娴熟地利用各种衔接手段。尤其要注意代词，连词等。如表示转折关系的but，though, however 等。6. 做完后，通读全文。将所选项放入空白处，通读一遍，看看是否与上下文构成语义及逻辑上的直接关系，是否符合该处语境。能否承接前后的写作线索。
16．上文"Most of us agree that life's real education happens outside the classroom."（我们中大多数人认为生活中的真正的教育发生在教室之外） 这句话表达了一个普遍的观点，即大多数人认为生活中真正的教育不仅仅局限于教室之内。F选项 "Classrooms with teachers and textbooks are of course one way to learn."（有老师和教科书的教室当然是学习的方式之一。）作为对前一句的补充，说明了尽管生活中有很多其他形式的教育，但传统的教室学习——有老师和教科书的环境——仍然是学习的一种方式。这句话在逻辑上起到了承上启下的作用，既肯定了教室学习的价值，又为后文的转折做了铺垫。下文"However, they are not the only ones.(然而，他们不是唯一的方法。)"这句话进行了转折，指出教室学习并不是唯一的学习方式。这里的"they"很明显是指代前文提到的"Classrooms with teachers and textbooks"，即传统的教室学习环境，故选F。
17．段落开头提到"You learn history."（你学习历史），这是一个泛泛而谈的陈述，表明学习历史是一个普遍存在的行为。E选项"You can study about the major historical events in your history class."（你可以在历史课上学习重大历史事件）则具体化了学习历史的途径之一，即在历史课上学习主要历史事件，承接前句。故选E项。
18．本段第四句话"Taking some social skill courses is useful."（参加一些社交课程是有用的）， 这是另一种提升社交技能的方式，即参加社交技能课程。然而，作者并没有停留在这里，而是用"However"进行了转折，强调了通过旅行来学习社交技能的优势："you can achieve it by traveling your way to a wonderful place on your own.（你可以实现它通过独自前往一个美丽的地方旅行。）" 作者认为，独自前往一个美丽的地方旅行，是提升社交技能的一种更加有效的方式。空处作为段落的结尾，要对前面的内容进行了总结和升华。D选项 "You' ll learn much better than through such courses."（你将学习的更好通过这样的课程）。这句话明确指出了通过旅行来学习社交技能的优势：比参加社交技能课程更加有效，总结上述内容。故选D项。
19．上文"When you are traveling, you are forced to do plenty of new things."（当你旅行时，你被迫做很多新的事情。）这句话强调旅行会使人们不断尝试新的事情，下文"Therefore, you must learn to be able to adapt to a new learning environment in a very short time."（因此，你必须学会能够在短时间内适应一个新的学习环境。）强调旅行学习的结果。空处句子要承上启下，上文强调尝试新的事情，C项"You are out of your comfort or familiar situation."（你在你的舒适区或者熟悉的情况之外）中"out of your comfort or familiar situation"呼应 "new things"，下文"adapt to a new learning environment"是走出舒适区的结果，即快速适应新环境。故选C项。
20．空处是段首句，总领全文。后文"Probably the most important aspect of education that travel helps is your education about yourself."（旅行对教育的最大帮助可能在于它对你的自我教育。）是对段首句的解释，强调的自我教育是旅行对教育的最大帮助，A项"You learn about yourself."（你了解自己）符合语意，再结合其它段首句的结构，都是you learn…，故选A项。
六、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。

九、第二节　(满分25 分)
47．（2024高二上·湛江期中）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。
Years ago, my daughter Hope was in a forth grade class with a group of children neighbourhood. Most of the children in Hope's class had at least one parent working in a factory. Hope loved her class and often told me stories of her classmates, including a boy named Robert who was in trouble a lot. He always stood in the corner for poor behavior in class. I volunteered to act as "the classroom mom", meaning brought snacks and planned parties and special outings for her class, even though I worked full-time as a social worker.
One day I saw Robert standing in the corner and asked the teacher if he could join our Mother's Day party. She refused, saying he needed to learn a lesson. I wasn't sure what he had done to make the teacher place him in the corner, but I felt sad for him as we ate cakes and played games while he continued to face the corner. After the party, I asked Hope what was wrong with Robert. "It seemed that he went to school only for basketball. He didn't listen to our teacher in class and he talked back. If you were his mother, I bet he wouldn't talk back," Hope said. I knew Robert's smother worked long hours in the paper-making factory. I knew she was a good woman, who found it hard to care for her four children alone. She tried her best, but I was sure there were days when she felt hopeless and was unable to manage it.
Hope said Robert often got angry in class when he didn't know the answer to a question and couldn't read as well as the other children. Hope's words struck me and made me think about whether I could help Robert on a one-to-one basis. His teacher allowed me to come two days a week during my lunch break and help Robert with reading. We read second grade-level books, the highest level he could master.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150词左右；
2.请按如下格式作答。
Slowly he began to master these books, almost enjoying them.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
At the end of the fourth grade, Robert and his classmates took the final exams.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Slowly he began to master these books, almost enjoying them. I also found that his thinking became more and more flexible and his learning became more and more focused. One day, when Hope came back from school, she felt very excited and a little incredible to tell me that Robert answered the teacher's question very carefully and correctly. The teacher praised him and asked him to continue his efforts. At lunchtime the next day, when I saw Robert again, I found that he was extraordinarily happy, and his eyes flashed with excitement. Our reading task was completed smoothly. After that day, I raised the difficulty of reading for him, and gradually reached the level of grade 3 and grade 4. His performance is much better than I expected.
At the end of the fourth grade, Robert and his classmates took the final exams. After the exam, he came to our house with Hope. He told me that he thought he did well in the exam, better than ever before. I told him with a smile, "I believe you, you are a smart child, and you will become better in the future, not only in learning." A blush flashed on his face. He came forward and hugged me, saying gently, "thank you, thank you..." I also hugged him and patted him gently on the back. I can understand his mood at the moment. No matter what the result of this exam is, I think this child's life will become different in the future.
【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，讲述了作者的女儿回家后经常和作者提到她的同学罗伯特。他经常因为在学校很差的表现被老师批评并罚站。有一天作者去带着零食去学校组织活动的时候，看到罗伯特又在墙角罚站，所以她决定帮帮这个孩子。她决定一周两次，在午餐时间帮助这个孩子阅读。段落续写：由第一段首句内容"慢慢地，他开始掌握这些书，几乎喜欢上了。"可知，第一段可描写罗伯特在作者的帮助下取得了很大的进步。由第二段段首句内容"四年级结束时，罗伯特和他的同学参加了期末考试"可知，第二段可描写罗伯特觉得他在考试中表现很好，来作者家里感谢作者。续写线索：帮助孩子——取得进步——老师表扬——考试中表现良好——感谢——感悟。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： I also found that his thinking became more and more flexible and his learning became more and more focused. （运用了that引导的宾语从句）； One day, when Hope came back from school, she felt very excited and a little incredible to tell me that Robert answered the teacher's question very carefully and correctly. （运用了when引导的时间状语从句以及that引导的宾语从句）；At lunchtime the next day, when I saw Robert again, I found that he was extraordinarily happy, and his eyes flashed with excitement.（运用了when引导的时间状语从句以及that引导的宾语从句）；He told me that he thought he did well in the exam, better than ever before. （运用了that引导的宾语从句）；He came forward and hugged me, saying gently, "thank you, thank you..."（运用了现在分词短语做状语）；No matter what the result of this exam is, I think this child's life will become different in the future.（运用了No matter what引导的让步状语从句以及省略了that引导的宾语从句）。
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。

（2024高二上·湛江期中）"With the passing of Chinese scientist Yuan Longping, China and the world have lost one greatest agricultural scientists," said Kenneth Quinn, president of the World Food Prize Foundation (基金会). Quinn also shared his memory of the "father of hybrid rice" in an interview with Xinhua on Sunday.
Quinn first met Yuan in October 2004, when Yuan traveled to Des Moines in the U.S. state of Iowa to receive the World Food Prize. As they walked out of the airport, Quinn received a call and stepped aside to speak. When he turned back a minute or two later, he lost Yuan. "I had never before ‘lost' a laureate (贵人)," he said. After an anxious search, he found Professor Yuan surrounded by a group of smiling graduate students from Iowa State University who so admired him that they wanted to take him off for a meal and conversation.
Quinn admired Yuan as a teacher. "He always had time to answer questions and speak with young scientists and students. The American high school students we sent to his research center each year always returned filled with knowledge and a deep desire to learn more."
In Quinn's eyes, Yuan was incredibly modest, never seeking fame, and focused only on hard work and results that could help lift people out of poverty. With a ‘down to earth' attitude, Yuan greatly reduced hunger and provided farmers with surplus (多余的) income through his discovery of hybrid rice.
Learning of Yuan's passing away on Saturday, Quinn issued a statement to send his deepest sympathy to Yuan's family and colleagues. "Professor Yuan Longping, who was truly beloved in his country and by all of us who knew him, will be greatly missed. His legacy will provide inspiration to generations far into the future, in China and across the world," Quinn said in the statement.
4．How did Kenneth Quinn feel when he found Yuan in a group of students
A．Confused B．Sorry C．Angry. D．Amazed

（2024高二上·湛江期中）The home of the future won't be completely different and we will be living in houses and flats just as we do today. But people will want to shape their homes to match their dreams. No two homes will be the same. People will be able to buy "house kits" containing a basic house structure, with movable walls, doors and windows. They will put together the different parts to create the home they want.
Many jobs that we do today will disappear, others will still exist but will change and new jobs will be created. Skilled workers such as builders, gardeners and electricians won't disappear because machines can't replace them. Teachers will still exist because students need human contact. But they will be using modern technology in class more and students will be working more at home. The medical technology revolution and space travel will create new jobs which we can only imagine today.
Space holidays will develop in the future, but these holidays won't be for everyone because they won't be cheap. Short space trips will develop first;then space hotels will orbit the earth where it will be possible to have a longer vacation. By the end of the next century, there will have been holiday centres on the moon with leisure facilities (休闲设施) for families.
Paper won't exist in the future. Instead, there will be e paper which people will be able to use over and over again. This will develop in order to save natural resources. E newspapers and e magazines will replace traditional newspapers and magazines and we will download information and news articles from the Internet every day onto our reusable paper.
The laws of physics tell us that the Earth is going to disappear some time in the future. This isn't going to happen tomorrow but scientists predict that it will happen in five billion years when our sun explodes. We will have to explore the universe and find another home. At some point in the distant future, either we stay on the Earth and die with it, or we leave and move to another planet. There won't be any other choice.
12．What will homes of future be like
A．They will be completely different from those of today.
B．They will be very similar to our homes.
C．All will be different from one another.
D．They will be movable as you want.
13．What does the second paragraph imply

B．The future will witness job changes.
C．Technology will totally replace workforce.
D．An unimaginable life will come into being.
14．What can we learn about space trips and staying in space hotels according to the passage
A．They will become a very common way to spend holidays.
B．They will be the best holiday options for families.
C．They will attract a lot of people.
D．They will be still only for very rich people.
15．Why will e paper replace traditional paper

（2024高二上·湛江期中）Most of us agree that life's real education happens outside the classroom.　16． 　 However, they are not the only ones. In fact, traveling is the best way to learn things. Here are some reasons why traveling is the best form of education.
You learn history.　17． 　 All that was really cool. However, nothing beats traveling to historic landmarks and exploring your way around a city's history and culture. When you visit museums, palaces and galleries, the entire nation's history comes out right in front of you. Learning about different dynasties, conflicts and changes is so much easier when you actually explore a nation.
You learn social skills. You may be shy and find it difficult to engage yourself socially. But traveling will change that as things like talking to strangers are not an option but a necessity during travels. Taking some social skill courses is useful. However, you can achieve it by traveling your way to a wonderful place on your own.　18． 　
You learn to do new things. When you are traveling, you are forced to do plenty of new things.　19． 　 Therefore, you must learn to be able to adapt to a new learning environment in a very short time. It also helps in your overall learning as well.
　20． 　 Probably the most important aspect of education that travel helps is your education about yourself. By traveling, you realize your true potential, the things that you really enjoy and the person who you really are. Without travel, you probably have a very limited understanding of yourself. And you may even be completely unaware of your real personality.
A. You learn about yourself.
B. You learn a lot by chatting.
C. You are out of your comfort or familiar situation.
D. You'll learn much better than through such courses.
E. You can study about the major historical events in your history class.
F. Classrooms with teachers and textbooks are of course one way to learn.
G. This helps you meet a lot of new people and experience some exciting things.

九、第二节　(满分25 分)
47．（2024高二上·湛江期中）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。
Years ago, my daughter Hope was in a forth grade class with a group of children neighbourhood. Most of the children in Hope's class had at least one parent working in a factory. Hope loved her class and often told me stories of her classmates, including a boy named Robert who was in trouble a lot. He always stood in the corner for poor behavior in class. I volunteered to act as "the classroom mom", meaning brought snacks and planned parties and special outings for her class, even though I worked full-time as a social worker.
One day I saw Robert standing in the corner and asked the teacher if he could join our Mother's Day party. She refused, saying he needed to learn a lesson. I wasn't sure what he had done to make the teacher place him in the corner, but I felt sad for him as we ate cakes and played games while he continued to face the corner. After the party, I asked Hope what was wrong with Robert. "It seemed that he went to school only for basketball. He didn't listen to our teacher in class and he talked back. If you were his mother, I bet he wouldn't talk back," Hope said. I knew Robert's smother worked long hours in the paper-making factory. I knew she was a good woman, who found it hard to care for her four children alone. She tried her best, but I was sure there were days when she felt hopeless and was unable to manage it.
Hope said Robert often got angry in class when he didn't know the answer to a question and couldn't read as well as the other children. Hope's words struck me and made me think about whether I could help Robert on a one-to-one basis. His teacher allowed me to come two days a week during my lunch break and help Robert with reading. We read second grade-level books, the highest level he could master.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150词左右；
2.请按如下格式作答。
Slowly he began to master these books, almost enjoying them.

At the end of the fourth grade, Robert and his classmates took the final exams.

11．细节理解题。根据最后一段"Of all of the sites, Lisa and her friends agreed that Old Faithful was the most fascinating. Lisa and her friends waited patiently for the geyser to erupt.

E. 你可以在历史课上学习重大历史事件。
F. 有老师和教材的课堂当然是一种学习方式。
G. 这有助于你结识很多新朋友，体验一些令人兴奋的事情。
【点评】考查任务型阅读（七选五）。解题技巧如下：1. 看首段，跳过空格快速通读全篇，了解文章大意。首段的末句一般是全文的主题所在，首段的末句对于快速掌握文章的主题具有重要意义。2. 首先快速浏览一遍几个备选答案，先确定哪个选项适合放在文章的什么位置。3. 精读空格前后两句，利用各种衔接手段选择正确的选项填入空格。七选五空出的是整个句子，而这些句子与句子之间，必然有一种联系，因此我们可以通过选项中某个名词或动词跟空前或空后的一致性或者相关性来确定这两个句子之间有一种关联性，从而选择正确的答案。考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。4. 看选项，找出与空前空后句中心词同义，近义或相关性的词语。实现关键词的对接，先易后难，各个突破。此外要通过句子的逻辑关系或句子的标点来判断该句在文章的位置。5. 解题的关键是能娴熟地利用各种衔接手段。尤其要注意代词，连词等。如表示转折关系的but，though, however 等。6. 做完后，通读全文。将所选项放入空白处，通读一遍，看看是否与上下文构成语义及逻辑上的直接关系，是否符合该处语境。能否承接前后的写作线索。
16．上文"Most of us agree that life's real education happens outside the classroom."（我们中大多数人认为生活中的真正的教育发生在教室之外） 这句话表达了一个普遍的观点，即大多数人认为生活中真正的教育不仅仅局限于教室之内。F选项 "Classrooms with teachers and textbooks are of course one way to learn."（有老师和教科书的教室当然是学习的方式之一。）作为对前一句的补充，说明了尽管生活中有很多其他形式的教育，但传统的教室学习——有老师和教科书的环境——仍然是学习的一种方式。这句话在逻辑上起到了承上启下的作用，既肯定了教室学习的价值，又为后文的转折做了铺垫。下文"However, they are not the only ones.(然而，他们不是唯一的方法。)"这句话进行了转折，指出教室学习并不是唯一的学习方式。这里的"they"很明显是指代前文提到的"Classrooms with teachers and textbooks"，即传统的教室学习环境，故选F。
17．段落开头提到"You learn history."（你学习历史），这是一个泛泛而谈的陈述，表明学习历史是一个普遍存在的行为。E选项"You can study about the major historical events in your history class."（你可以在历史课上学习重大历史事件）则具体化了学习历史的途径之一，即在历史课上学习主要历史事件，承接前句。故选E项。
18．本段第四句话"Taking some social skill courses is useful."（参加一些社交课程是有用的）， 这是另一种提升社交技能的方式，即参加社交技能课程。然而，作者并没有停留在这里，而是用"However"进行了转折，强调了通过旅行来学习社交技能的优势："you can achieve it by traveling your way to a wonderful place on your own.（你可以实现它通过独自前往一个美丽的地方旅行。）" 作者认为，独自前往一个美丽的地方旅行，是提升社交技能的一种更加有效的方式。空处作为段落的结尾，要对前面的内容进行了总结和升华。D选项 "You' ll learn much better than through such courses."（你将学习的更好通过这样的课程）。这句话明确指出了通过旅行来学习社交技能的优势：比参加社交技能课程更加有效，总结上述内容。故选D项。
19．上文"When you are traveling, you are forced to do plenty of new things."（当你旅行时，你被迫做很多新的事情。）这句话强调旅行会使人们不断尝试新的事情，下文"Therefore, you must learn to be able to adapt to a new learning environment in a very short time."（因此，你必须学会能够在短时间内适应一个新的学习环境。）强调旅行学习的结果。空处句子要承上启下，上文强调尝试新的事情，C项"You are out of your comfort or familiar situation."（你在你的舒适区或者熟悉的情况之外）中"out of your comfort or familiar situation"呼应 "new things"，下文"adapt to a new learning environment"是走出舒适区的结果，即快速适应新环境。故选C项。
20．空处是段首句，总领全文。后文"Probably the most important aspect of education that travel helps is your education about yourself."（旅行对教育的最大帮助可能在于它对你的自我教育。）是对段首句的解释，强调的自我教育是旅行对教育的最大帮助，A项"You learn about yourself."（你了解自己）符合语意，再结合其它段首句的结构，都是you learn…，故选A项。
【答案】21．D；22．D；23．C；24．A；25．B；26．C；27．B；28．C；29．D；30．A；31．C；32．A；33．B；34．C；35．D
【知识点】名词辨析；形容词的词义辨析；动词的词义辨析；故事阅读类；记叙文
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了61岁的Thomas不顾个人安慰，勇敢营救火灾中的小男孩的故事。
【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。

One day, when Hope came back from school, she felt very excited and a little incredible to tell me that Robert answered the teacher's question very carefully and correctly. The teacher praised him and asked him to continue his efforts. At lunchtime the next day, when I saw Robert again, I found that he was extraordinarily happy, and his eyes flashed with excitement. Our reading task was completed smoothly. After that day, I raised the difficulty of reading for him, and gradually reached the level of grade 3 and grade 4. His performance is much better than I expected.
At the end of the fourth grade, Robert and his classmates took the final exams. After the exam, he came to our house with Hope. He told me that he thought he did well in the exam, better than ever before. I told him with a smile, "I believe you, you are a smart child, and you will become better in the future, not only in learning." A blush flashed on his face. He came forward and hugged me, saying gently, "thank you, thank you..." I also hugged him and patted him gently on the back. I can understand his mood at the moment. No matter what the result of this exam is, I think this child's life will become different in the future.
【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，讲述了作者的女儿回家后经常和作者提到她的同学罗伯特。他经常因为在学校很差的表现被老师批评并罚站。有一天作者去带着零食去学校组织活动的时候，看到罗伯特又在墙角罚站，所以她决定帮帮这个孩子。她决定一周两次，在午餐时间帮助这个孩子阅读。段落续写：由第一段首句内容"慢慢地，他开始掌握这些书，几乎喜欢上了。"可知，第一段可描写罗伯特在作者的帮助下取得了很大的进步。由第二段段首句内容"四年级结束时，罗伯特和他的同学参加了期末考试"可知，第二段可描写罗伯特觉得他在考试中表现很好，来作者家里感谢作者。续写线索：帮助孩子——取得进步——老师表扬——考试中表现良好——感谢——感悟。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： I also found that his thinking became more and more flexible and his learning became more and more focused. （运用了that引导的宾语从句）； One day, when Hope came back from school, she felt very excited and a little incredible to tell me that Robert answered the teacher's question very carefully and correctly. （运用了when引导的时间状语从句以及that引导的宾语从句）；At lunchtime the next day, when I saw Robert again, I found that he was extraordinarily happy, and his eyes flashed with excitement.（运用了when引导的时间状语从句以及that引导的宾语从句）；He told me that he thought he did well in the exam, better than ever before. （运用了that引导的宾语从句）；He came forward and hugged me, saying gently, "thank you, thank you..."（运用了现在分词短语做状语）；No matter what the result of this exam is, I think this child's life will become different in the future.（运用了No matter what引导的让步状语从句以及省略了that引导的宾语从句）。
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。
