I’m taking part in UltraSwim 33.3, an open-water event that challenges swimmers to cover the distance of an English Channel swim. This may seem an odd way to start an article about writing. But I’ve long told students that writing a novel is less like a flash of inspiration and more like swimming the Channel.Training for the UltraSwim meant gradually increasing my distance, strengthening my technique, and adapting to cold water. That is exactly like writing. Just as you can build physical tirelessness, you can build creative staying power. For swimming, that meant cold water adaptability and learning to eat properly between swims. For writing, it means writing even when the words feel off and learning to rewrite what doesn’t work. Each week I saw my swim times improve, just as my early drafts began to read less like notes and more like chapters.This isn’t just my theory. Other authors have found similar inspiration in swimming. Even Hemingway was known for his love of swimming. The pool at his Key West home was more than just a luxury; it was a place for reflection, writing and escape. He swam elsewhere, too: in Spain, in France, wherever life took him.There’s a moment, somewhere towards the end of a long swim, when your arms ache and every fibre of your being wants out. But you keep going and touch the finish line. And then you collapse and say you will never do that again. The funny thing is, the swimmers were, within minutes of receiving their medals, already talking about “next year”—about training more seriously and coming back stronger. That’s the part most non-writers don’t understand: finishing the first draft of a novel isn’t the end. It’s the beginning of editing, rewriting, restructuring. You’ve made it to the other side, but the tide (潮汐) is already pulling you back for another pass.24. What’s the purpose of the first paragraph A. To describe a swimming route. B. To explain a competition’s rules.C. To connect two seemingly different things. D. To showcase an athletic achievement.25. In what sense are swimming and writing similar according to the text A. Adaptability and gradual progress are key. B. They require sudden bursts of inspiration.C. Physical strength is irrelevant to creativity. D. It takes a high level of focus to do them well.26. Why does the author mention Hemingway’s swimming pool in Key West A. To criticize his luxurious lifestyle.B. To suggest sporty writers can easily succeed.C. To highlight how swimming fueled his writing.D. To compare it with modern swimming facilities.27. What does the author say about finishing the first draft of a novel A. It’s like winning a swimming medal. B. It leads to the next phase of hard work.C. It marks the final step of the writing process. D. It’s less important than the initial brainstorming.CThe numerous bacteria that naturally inhabit the human body seem to help us in many ways. One group is emerging as particularly beneficial: a type of gut (肠道) bacteria known as Blautia, which has made headlines recently because it seems to produce some really remarkable effects. Now, a Chinese team is glimpsing another potential benefit of Blautia: helping people adapt to high altitudes. Their findings suggest that providing Blautia could help mountaineers and others perform better in these challenging environments.Qing-Peng Kong, a geneticist at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and his team recruited 45 men to move from their homes at 250 meters above sea level to a town at about 3,700 meters. Despite the thin air, the men ate similar food as they had at home, minimizing the effects of diet changes on their gut bacteria. After 2 days, Blautia went from being rare to very abundant in their guts.In the second experiment, the team exposed mice to controlled low-oxygen conditions in the lab first and then simulated (模拟) an altitude of 4,000 meters, while giving Blautia to half of them every other day. The Blautia-treated mice showed milder response of altitude sickness. This opens the door into whether altitude sickness might be amenable to treatment through the gut.The bacteria’s effect may also extend to the brain. “Its superpower comes from the connection between the gut and the brain,” says Klepac-Cerak at Wellesley College. The fatty acids it makes are known to activate receptors (神经末梢) on nerves that connect the digestive system, heart and brain. This could help explain a surprising relationship that Klepac-Cerak reported last year: Kids are more likely to talk and laugh when they have more Blautia in their guts. “There’s lots of communication happening between our brains; we are just beginning to uncover what services bacteria do for us.” Klepac-Cerak notes.Blautia’s apparent superpowers suggest to Kong it could serve as a supplement (补充) that benefits people regardless of whether they are planning a trip to Tibet. But first, Kong says, he wants to find out whether Blautia is a “solo” player or has these protective effects only as part of a larger group of bacteria.28. What’s the newly-found benefit of the study led by a Chinese team A. It gets public attention. B. It helps people do better at high altitudes.C. It makes social media angry. D. It introduces an advanced new technology.29. What do we know about the subjects (实验对象) in both experiments A. They experienced low-oxygen conditions.B. They received Blautia in their diet.C. They moved to high-altitude regions.D. They suffered severe altitude sickness.30. What does the underlined word “amenable” in Paragraph 3 mean ”.A. Careless B. Untreatable. C. Unchangeable D. Reactive.31. How would both Kong and Klepac-Cerak describe Blautia’s role in human health A. double-edged sword. B. A solo player.C. An extremely effective solution. D. A partially-understood influenceDFishing is a way of life for people who live on the floating villages of Cambodia’s Tonle Sap Lake. These Southeast Asians depend on fish in the lake. But those fish are in trouble.Overall, their numbers in Tonle Sap Lake have been falling sharply. Compared to the number in 2003, just 12 percent as many could be found in 2019. Chevalier was part of a team that shared those data in Science of the Total Environment. “If the tendency continues,” he says, “there will be nothing for people there to eat any more.”Dams (大坝) are a big problem, Chevalier says. These structures break up river systems. With growing human populations, overfishing becomes more of a threat. As people keep fishing, the share of fish left there could decrease even more. Pollution threatens freshwater ecosystems, too. People have also been changing the land in ways that damages the habitat in lakes and streams. And then there’s a growing number of non-native harmful species. Lastly, global warming has been causing harm by stressing both fish and their food sources.Still, the situation isn’t hopeless. Researchers are working to identify the most effective ways to change that. One way is to remove outdated or ill-placed dams. The largest such U. S. project took down four dams from the lower Klamath River. Soon after, thousands of salmon (鲑鱼) were swimming upstream through this newly opened stretch. Elsewhere, dam operators can reduce harm by changing river flows. Limiting flow too much can cause downstream areas to dry up. Smarter dam placement would also help.“Restoring habitat can help if done right. But this work costs money. And it’s hard to restore entire streams,” John Gray, a fish biologist, says. In 2022, scientists tried repopulating some fish species at Tonle Sap Lake. However, nearly half the fish were caught less than three months later.With each success or failure, scientists learn how better to deal with these big problems. Teens can get involved. Many conservation groups welcome help from people of any age.32. Why is fishing mentioned in the first paragraph A. To present a way of living. B. To state the best fishing place.C. To lead to the main concern. D. To stress the value of tradition.33. Which of the following is a way to settle the problem caused by dams A. Increasing the use of dams.B. Turning dams into river habitats.C. Choosing the locations for dams wisely.D. Limiting the river water flowing downstream.34. What does Gray think of restoring habitat A. It has limited benefits. B. It is useless.C. It will bring worse results. D. It is money-saving.35. What is the best title of the text A. Remove Old Dams B. Threats to Southeast Asian PopulationC. Benefits of Protecting Fish D.

Here are heartfelt ways to heal (治愈) and honor their memory.Give yourself permission. If you’re heartbroken after the loss of your pet, you’re far from alone.

I felt extremely lonely there. Among the 790 new students, I didn’t recognize a single face from my middle school, and I struggled to make new friends.At home, things weren’t much better. My little brother was too young to have anything to do with me. My elder brother was busy planning and preparing for his college life. My older sister was outgoing and never without her friends. Dad was working in a faraway city. Mom, who used to wait for me to come home and was always there to give me a big hug when I had to get the bad feelings off my chest, had also changed.On the very first day I returned from school, she greeted me with criticism, “Carole, your bedroom’s a disaster. You’re grown up now! Can’t you keep it clean ”At the moment, the last thing I needed was her criticism. I just wanted a big hug or a few heart-warm words from her.“Mom, I...” I tried to explain, but a phone ring cut me off.“One minute, Carole!” Mom said, turning to answer the phone.I watched her discussing something with her editor. I saw her nodding her head now and then. Then she sat down by her desk to take notes. I knew she was a hardworking writer and a nice Mom who was strict with herself and devoted to us. I knew she’d been busy lately—but still, I couldn’t help feeling hurt and unseen.Back to my room, I started to do my math homework. Unfortunately, I made one mistake after another that day.“How stupid I am!” I thought bitterly.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。Each time I made a mistake, I would tear the paper out.____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________I came home very late in the evening.____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________张家口市第一中学高三年级英语学科期中考试英语答案一.听力1-5.

I’m looking forward to experiencing this innovative learning tool.Yours sincerely,Li Hua读后续写:Each time I made a mistake, I would tear the paper out. By the time I finished my homework, the floor was covered with piles of waste paper and my bedroom seemed even messier. Strangely, the bigger mess gave me a sense of satisfaction I had never experienced before. I even cut some of the waste paper into tiny pieces and threw them under the bed. Then I closed the door violently and left home without a word.I came home very late in the evening. But when I dragged myself to my bedroom and opened the door, I stopped in surprise—it was tidy and clean. Obviously, Mom had cleaned it up after I left. As I stood there, I realized that Mom’s love hadn’t changed at all. And slowly, my longing for a hug was gradually replaced by a feeling that I would only truly understand years later when I became a parent myself.听力原文:Text1.【原文】W: Hi, Sam.

As Alpine farmers moved their cattle between high and low grasslands, they needed a reliable means to track them. The cowbell, with its ring, provided just that. Each bell has a unique tone that identifies any individual cow. Over time, it changed, not just in form but in significance, integrating itself into Swiss culture. For the Swiss, cowbells are symbolic of their connection with nature, their deep-rooted traditions, and the beauty of the Alps.There are only about six main cowbell makers left in Switzerland. The bells are handmade and can last for decades. Craftsmanship is highly valued. For travellers, Swiss cowbells have become beloved souvenirs. They’re not just reminders of a trip, but a slice of Swiss tradition. Whether hung on doorways or displayed on shelves, they serve as a symbol of the Alps’ breathtaking scenery and calmness it brings.Given the craftsmanship and cultural importance, genuine Swiss cowbells don’t come cheap. While Swiss cowbell prices vary based on size, material, and delicacy of design, some can cost hundreds, if not thousands, of Swiss francs. It’s a worthy price for a piece of Swiss heritage.第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分50分)A篇【导语】这是一篇应用文,文章主要介绍了英国艺术奖的相关信息,包括参赛要求、参赛过程以及奖品设置。【21题详解】细节理解题。根据Entry Requirements部分中“Entries may include paintings, drawings, textile (织物), prints or mixed media.

You may enter up to 20 works.(第一件作品的报名费为20英镑,其他作品的报名费为17英镑。你最多可以提交20件作品)”可知,5件作品需支付20+17×4=88英镑,故C。【23题详解】细节理解题。根据Second Prize部分中“A 500 cash prize plus 750 worth of Staedtler products and inclusion in the Artists &Illustrators British Art Prize winners’ special issue where a 10-page editorial (社论) will include images of all the shortlist and winners.(500英镑的现金奖励加上价值750英镑的Staedtler产品,并包含在艺术家与插画家英国艺术奖获奖者特刊中,其中10页的社论将包括所有入围名单和获奖者的照片)”可知,价值750英镑的Staedtler产品属于二等奖奖品,故选B。B篇【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章以作者参加超远距离游泳赛事为引,将写作小说与游泳类比,强调二者均需循序渐进、坚持适应,还借海明威事例佐证,指出小说初稿仅是后续工作的开始。【24题】推理判断题。第一段“It’s 12km from Pelegrinska on the Eastern tip of Hvar Island, across a 3km channel of water to and around the coast of Palmizana island and I’m attempting to swim this distance. I’m taking part in UltraSwim 33.3, an open-water event that challenges swimmers to cover the distance of an English Channel swim. This may seem an odd way to start an article about writing. But I’ve long told students that writing a novel is less like a flash of inspiration and more like swimming the Channel.(从赫瓦尔岛东端的佩莱格里纳出发,沿着一条3公里的水道,前往帕尔米扎纳岛的海岸并环绕其周边区域,这段距离共计12公里。我正尝试游完这段距离。我正在参加“超长游泳33.3”活动,这是一项开放水域赛事,挑战游泳者完成英吉利海峡游泳的距离。这似乎并不是撰写文章的恰当开头方式。但我一直告诉学生,写一部小说不像突然获得灵感那样简单,而更像是游过英吉利海峡那样)”可知,第一段的目的是将两个看似不同的事物联系起来,为后文的类比论证铺垫。故C。【25题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段“Training for the UltraSwim meant gradually increasing my distance, strengthening my technique, and adapting to cold water. That is exactly like writing. Just as you can build physical tirelessness, you can build creative staying power. For swimming, that meant cold water adaptability and learning to eat properly between swims. For writing, it means writing even when the words feel off and learning to rewrite what doesn’t work.(进行超长距离游泳训练意味着要逐步增加游泳的距离、强化游泳技巧,并适应冰冷的水环境。这与写作的过程如出一辙。正如你可以锻炼出身体的耐力一样,你也能培养出创作的持久力。对于游泳而言,这意味着要适应冰冷的水环境,并学会在游泳间隙合理饮食。对于写作而言,则意味着即便感觉措辞不当也要坚持写作,并学会对不成功的作品进行修改)”可知,游泳和写作在“需适应挑战”与“逐步提升”这两点上高度相似。故选A。【26题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段“Even Hemingway was known for his love of swimming. The pool at his Key West home was more than just a luxury; it was a place for reflection, writing and escape. He swam elsewhere, too: in Spain, in France, wherever life took him.(就连海明威也因热爱游泳而闻名。他在基韦斯特的家中所拥有的游泳池不仅是一种奢华享受,更是一个用于沉思、写作和逃避现实的场所。他还曾在其他地方游泳:在西班牙、在法国,以及随生活所至的任何地方)”可知,作者提及海明威在基韦斯特的游泳池是为了强调游泳对他的写作产生了怎样的影响。故选C。【27题详解】细节理解题。根据最后一段“That’s the part most non-writers don’t understand: finishing the first draft of a novel isn’t the end. It’s the beginning of editing, rewriting, restructuring. You’ve made it to the other side, but the tide (潮汐) is already pulling you back for another pass.(这是大多数非作家所不明白的一点:完成一部小说的初稿并非意味着结束,而是编辑、重写和重新构思的开始。你已经走过了这一关,但潮汐却已经在把你拉回原处,让你再来一遍)”可知,作者认为完成小说初稿会引领接下来艰苦工作的阶段。故选B。C篇【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了中国科学家团队对肠道细菌Blautia的研究,发现其可能帮助人们适应高海拔环境,并可能通过肠道与大脑的关联对健康产生积极影响。【28题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段的句子“Now, a Chinese team is glimpsing another potential benefit of Blautia: helping people adapt to high altitudes. Their findings suggest that providing Blautia could help mountaineers and others perform better in these challenging environments.(现在,一个中国团队看到了Blautia的另一个潜在好处:帮助人们适应高海拔地区。他们的研究结果表明,提供Blautia可以帮助登山者和其他人在这些具有挑战性的环境中表现得更好。)”可知,Blautia有助于人们在高海拔环境中表现更好。故选B项。【29题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段的句子“Qing-Peng Kong, a geneticist at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and his team recruited 45 men to move from their homes at 250 meters above sea level to a town at about 3,700 meters.(中国科学院遗传学家Qing-Peng Kong和他的团队招募了45名男性,让他们从海拔250米的家中搬到海拔约3700米的城镇)”和第三段的句子“In the second experiment, the team exposed mice to controlled low-oxygen conditions in the lab first and then simulated(模拟) an altitude of 4,000 meters, while giving Blautia to half of them every other day.(在第二个实验中,研究小组首先将小鼠暴露在实验室控制的低氧条件下,然后模拟海拔4000米的环境,同时每隔一天给一半的小鼠喂食Blautia。)”可知,实验对象都经历了低氧条件。故选A项。【30题详解】词句猜测题。根据划线单词前面的“altitude sickness(高原反应)”和下文的“treatment through the gut(通过肠道进行治疗)”可知,此处指的是“通过肠道治疗高原反应是否可行”,所以划线单词amenable的意义为“可用某种方式处理的”,与reactive“易反应的”意义相近。故选D项。【31题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段的句子“But first, Kong says, he wants to find out whether Blautia is a ‘solo’ player or has these protective effects only as part of a larger group of bacteria.(但首先,Kong说他想弄清楚Blautia是否是“独奏者”,还是作为更大细菌群体的一部分才具有这些保护作用)”和第四段的句子“There’s lots of communication happening between our brains; we are just beginning to uncover what services bacteria do for us.(我们的大脑之间有很多交流;我们才刚刚开始发现细菌为我们做了什么。)”可知,Kong和Klepac-Cerak认为,Blautia的作用尚未完全被理解。故选D项。D篇【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述柬埔寨洞里萨湖鱼类数量锐减,受大坝、过度捕捞等威胁,研究者尝试移除旧坝、恢复栖息地等措施,呼吁人们参与保护。【32题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段“Fishing is a way of life for people who live on the floating villages of Cambodia’s Tonle Sap Lake. These Southeast Asians depend on fish in the lake. But those fish are in trouble. (捕鱼是柬埔寨洞里萨湖水上村落居民的一种生活方式。这些东南亚人依赖湖里的鱼为生。但这些鱼正面临困境。)”以及下文可知,第一段先介绍捕鱼对当地居民的重要性,再引出“鱼类陷入困境”这一核心问题,目的是引出文章主要关注的内容。故选C项。【33题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段“Smarter dam placement would also help. (更合理的水坝选址也会有所帮助。)”可知,明智地选择水坝位置是解决水坝引发问题的方法之一。故选C项。【34题详解】推理判断题。根据第五段““Restoring habitat can help if done right. But this work costs money. And it’s hard to restore entire streams,” John Gray, a fish biologist, says. (鱼类生物学家约翰 格雷说:“如果方法得当,恢复栖息地会有帮助。但这项工作需要花钱,而且要恢复整条溪流也很困难。”)”可知,格雷认为恢复栖息地虽有帮助,但存在成本高、难度大的问题,即益处有限。故选A项。【35题详解】主旨大意题。根据第一段“Fishing is a way of life for people who live on the floating villages of Cambodia’s Tonle Sap Lake. These Southeast Asians depend on fish in the lake. But those fish are in trouble. (捕鱼是柬埔寨洞里萨湖水上村落居民的一种生活方式。这些东南亚人依赖湖里的鱼为生。但这些鱼正面临困境。)”以及下文可知,文章开篇指出洞里萨湖鱼类数量锐减及当地居民对鱼类的依赖,接着分析大坝、过度捕捞等威胁鱼类生存的因素,随后介绍移除旧坝、合理选址、恢复栖息地等保护措施,最后提到科学家的努力及青少年可参与保护。所以D项Help Tonle Sap Fish Survive(帮助洞里萨湖的鱼类生存)涵盖“鱼类面临危机”和“保护措施”核心内容,符合主旨。故选D项。七选五【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章指出养宠者都会经历失宠之痛,进而给出五条慰藉方法:允许自己悲伤、停止自责、让情绪可感、回想宠物启示、重新敞开心扉接纳新宠物。【36题详解】根据上文“That’s because animals don’t care what their owners look like, what they drive and where they live.(这是因为动物并不在意主人的长相、所驾驶的车辆以及居住的地方)”可知,前文强调动物不在意主人的外貌、座驾和住所,突出了宠物与主人关系的纯粹性。故C选项“没有几段关系能如此纯粹”符合语境,故选C。【37题详解】根据上文“Stop blaming yourself. One of the most common emotions we feel when we lose a furry family member is guilt. Pet parents will say things like they didn’t walk their animal enough.(别再自责了。当我们失去一只宠物家庭成员时,最常有的感受就是内疚。宠物主人往往会说诸如“他们没有给宠物遛够”之类的话)”可知,该段围绕宠物离世后主人的愧疚感展开,还举例提到“没陪宠物走够路”这类想法。本句揭示愧疚感的根源:主人因无法改变宠物离世的事实,便将责任归咎于自身的小疏忽,产生了无力感。故D选项“这往往源于一种无力感”符合语境,故选D。【38题详解】根据上文“Make feelings tangible (可感知). Those who experience a sudden loss of a companion animal may find themselves in a state of shock.(让情感变得可感知。那些突然失去陪伴宠物的人可能会陷入极度的震惊之中)”以及后文“Looking at pictures of your animal and journaling your feelings are both ways to concretize the loss early in the process.(看着你的动物的照片以及记录下自己的感受,都是在这个过程初期将这种失落感具体化的方法)”可知,段落核心是让悲伤可被感知,以应对突然失去宠物的冲击,B选项“认识到这种死亡是至关重要的”符合语境,指出处理悲伤的前提:必须先直面并承认宠物已经离世的事实。故选B。【39题详解】根据后文“It’s widely known that animals are often more perceptive than humans. They may have taught you patience or helped you learn how to live in the moment. Incorporate (融合) these lessons into your life, and the spirit of your pet will always be with you.(众所周知,动物往往比人类更具感知力。它们或许教会了你如何保持耐心,也帮助你学会了如何活在当下。将这些经验融入你的生活,你的宠物的精神将永远伴随着你)”可知,该段提到宠物能教会人耐心、活在当下等品质,并建议将这些融入生活。选项A作为段落主旨句,概括了“从宠物身上汲取智慧与启示”的核心。故A选项“思考他们的智慧”符合语境,故选A。【40题详解】根据上文“Open your heart again. If you wait until you no longer miss your animal, you may never be ready to welcome another. It’s advisable to acknowledge your sorrow while also opening your heart to the joy a new pet can bring. This starts with creating a loving environment for both you and your new furry friend.(再次敞开心扉吧。如果你一直等到自己不再想念那只动物时才去迎接新的宠物,那你可能永远都不会准备好迎接另一只宠物的来到。建议你在面对这份悲伤的同时,也要敞开心扉去感受新宠物能带来的快乐。这首先要从为你自己和你的新毛茸茸的朋友营造一个充满爱的环境开始)”可知,段落主题是 “重新敞开心扉”,在怀念旧宠物的同时接纳新宠物。选项F提供了纪念旧宠物的具体方式——打造纪念花园。故F选项“有些人会通过建造纪念花园来寻求慰藉”符合语境,故选F。第三部分 语言运用(共两节,满分30分)完型:【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了七岁残疾男孩Sirio

(improve) their physical and mental health”在句中作目的状语,所以用动词不定式to improve,表示目的是“改善他们的身心健康”。故to improve。【59题】考查非谓语动词。句意:如今,少林寺的僧人仍然相信,将功夫练习与这些方法相结合,可以通过调节体内能量和激活身体的自愈能力来改善他们的健康状况。by是介词,后面regulate的动名词形式regulating作宾语。故填regulating。【60题详解】考查名词所有格。句意:如今,少林寺的僧人仍然相信,将功夫练习与这些方法相结合,可以通过调节体内能量和激活身体的自愈能力来改善他们的健康状况。此处表示“身体的”自愈能力,所以用名词所有格形式。故填body’s。【61题】考查动词时态和语态。句意:例如,功夫练习被用来引导体内的能量流动,而针灸和草药被用来缓解疼痛和治疗不同的疾病。句子描述的是一般情况,应用一般现在时。主语“acupuncture and herbal medicine”与“apply”之间是被动关系,即“针灸和草药被应用”,所以用一般现在时的被动语态,其结构“am / is / are +过去分词”,主语是复数,所以are applied。【62题】考查名词复数。句意:例如,功夫练习被用来引导体内的能量流动,而针灸和草药被用来缓解疼痛和治疗不同的疾病。illness是可数,根据前面的“different(不同的)”可知,此处应用复数形式illnesses,表示多种疾病。故填illnesses。【63题详解】考查冠词。句意:寺庙里甚至有一个诊所,游客可以在那里接受治疗。此处表示泛指“一个”诊所,且clinic的发音以辅音音素开头,所以用不定冠词a。故填a。【64题详解】考查定语从句。句意:寺庙里甚至有一个诊所,游客可以在那里接受治疗。“____9____ visitors can receive treatments”为定语从句,先行词为“clinic(诊所)”,在从句中作地点状语,所以用关系副词where引导该定从。故where。【65题】考查固定短语。句意:当然,主要专注于中医实践。“focus on / upon...”是固定短语,意为“专注于”。故填on / upon。第四部分
