第二节(满分25分)
The next morning, true to their word, they arrived ready to help. And what followed was no small task. My husband, still in a hospital bed, talked us through the process over the phone. It was complex and physically demanding. Piece by piece, with calm and methodical care, Sam worked it all out, while Hillary offered encouragement, guidance and good humour. After two hours, the camper was ready to go. It would have taken me days on my own and, even then, I’m not sure I could have done it.
But their kindness didn’t stop there. They invited me to join them for dinner and a seat at their campfire, sharing their food, their warmth and their company. I hadn’t realized how much I needed that simple kindness. It felt like the first deep breath I’d taken in days. I will never forget that holiday. Not just because of the accident, or the brilliance of the emergency services, but because of Sam and Hillary. They gave me a warm Tasmanian hug-just when I needed it most.

M: Our skiing holiday is booked for next week, isn’t it
W: Yes, all sorted. Do you need to adjust anything
M: I decided it might be better if the kids stayed with their grandparents. They’ll enjoy the quality time.
Text 2
M: I’ve got an eye test booked at your clinic next Monday.
W: Yes, Mr. Brown, that's confirmed. I’ll arrange the doctor for you. Are you ringing just to check the appointment
M: Actually, could I reschedule I had a car accident, and buses don’t run regularly where I live.
Text 3
M: Have you seen Zootopia 2 My kids say it’s a movie worth seeing.
W: No, not yet. But I’ve heard good things about its vivid new characters and the funny interactions between Judy and Nick.
M: Yeah, but some reviews say it lacks new ideas.
Text 4
W: It feels like we celebrate everything with fireworks nowadays— Diwali, Chinese New Year, and even weddings.
M: Wow, really I always thought they were just for New Year and bonfire nights.
Text 5
W: James, how long have you been organizing school trips
M: Around a year now.
W: Well, you’ve really picked up the safety rules quickly—I noticed how carefully you double-checked we had all the right equipment today.
Text 6(第6-7题)
W: Have you both got your tickets And your phones charged
M: Yes, Mom. We’ve been ready for ages. We can’t be late.
W: I know, I just want to make sure you’re safe.
M: You said we could go by ourselves. We’re 15.
W: I did, and I’ll be waiting right outside afterwards. Text me if anything feels wrong.
M: It won’t, it’s going to be amazing. We’ve waited months for this concert.
W: I want you to have fun, really. I just can’t believe how grown up you are.
M: We’ll be fine. We’ll send you a video of our favorite song, —The Summer.
W: No need, just have fun.
Text 7(第8-10题)
W: So, what did you think of the mindfulness(正念)book
M: I thought it would be boring, but it actually helped. That’s why I’m returning it early. I read it quickly.
W: Was there anything in particular that stood out
M: The breathing exercises. I’ve used one before my presentation last week.
W: Did it help you calm down
M: Yeah. The book suggests breathing in for four seconds, pausing for four, and then breathing out for six, which adds up to 14 seconds per cycle. I tried that five times. It really worked.
W: I try that, I only do it once, and it still makes a difference.
M: I might try that gratitude journal idea next.
W: It’s worth a go.
M: I think more students should read that book. It felt real.
Text 8(第11-13题)
W: Which do you think is most meaningful—Hanfu, classical Chinese music or ancient poetry
M: That’s a difficult question. I think Hanfu is amazing. Just wearing it feels like stepping into the past. The style is so different from modern clothes. We all wore it to my sister’s wedding.
W: Yeah, it’s beautiful and comfortable to wear. And it’s not just clothing;it shows the fashion from ancient dynasties. But I still think classical music connects us more. There are some very famous performers too. You don’t have to understand the language to feel something.
M: True, when someone plays instruments like the guzheng, it really makes you stop to listen. But also poetry is magical. Some of those old lines say a lot in just a few words.
W: I know what you mean. So, I guess Hanfu shows tradition through fashion, music through sound, and poetry through writing. I think they are all studied in schools now.
M: Right, that makes sense.
W: They are all ways of keeping culture alive.
M: Yeah. They remind us where we come from and what matters.
Text 9(第14-16题)
M: I didn’t expect to see you here, Miss Smith. I thought you were busy running that team building event this weekend.
W: I was, and it went really well. We had a stress relief session using pets.
M: I've heard of it. It’s the use of an animal to provide comfort to people with health problems, right
W: Yes, we brought in trained therapy dogs during the team building event. To help with stress relief, employees could spend time with them in special areas.
M: That sounds wonderful, but wasn’t there a risk that some people would find the dogs too noisy
W: At first, some were unsure, especially those who don’t usually spend time with pets. I guess they were maybe a little bit afraid of the dogs, but didn't actually say that. However, once they saw how calm and relaxed the dogs made everyone feel, they were more open to it. Some employees even mentioned how much more comfortable they felt during group activities.
M: I never thought about how much of a positive impact comfort could have.
W: It’s incredible. Animals help people feel more at ease and connected, which really improves teamwork and communication.
M: Well, you never say never. Now that we’ve spoken, I wouldn’t rule outdoing something similar.
Text 10
M: I used to think talent was everything. I you were naturally good at something, you’d succeed. If not, you wouldn’t. I thought I wasn’t good at languages, so I could never get better. Then I learned about the growth mindset, and it changed my mind.
The theory comes from psychologist Caral Dweck She says people with a growth mindset believe they can improve through practice, while those with a fixed mindset think talent is fixed.
Some schools now encourage students to focus on effort and improvement, believing that a growth mindset eventually leads to better results. And in sport or business, the same idea applies. You can learn from failure, keep going, and your brain grows through challenges.
But not everyone agrees Some researchers say the idea is too simple. If someone lacks support or resources, effort alone might not be enough. Others argue that praising effort too much could make people ignore smart strategies.
Still, I’ve seen it work. When my son stopped saying “I can’t learn languages” and started saying “I can’t do verbs yet but I will improve”, things changed. He ended up doing much better in those important exams.
After all, the mind, like a muscle, grows with use-but only if you believe it can.
【答案解析】
A篇主题语境:人与社会——社会服务与教育
【语篇导读】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了图书馆的“Beyond the Book”项目,包括项目目标、会员权益、课程时间与收费标准,旨在吸引家庭参与儿童阅读能力培养。
第21题.A 细节理解与目的概括。解析:首段明确说明项目旨在“stimulate curiosity in young readers”(激发年轻读者的好奇心),并“empower families...support their child’s growth as a confident reader”(帮助家庭培养孩子成为自信的读者)。选项A “Inspiring young readers”(激励年轻读者)与此直接对应。故选A。
第22题.C 细节理解与综合概括。解析:题目问的是会员“有权获得什么”(entitled to),即会员的核心权益。根据 “Your Beyond the Book membership includes” 部分的内容:月度专家阅读技巧通讯、季节性精选图书及教育活动、独家作者讲座等邀请。这些权益都属于高质量的阅读指导相关内容。选项C“Quality reading guidance”(优质的阅读指导)全面涵盖了会员权益的核心,故选C。
第23题.B 综合计算与信息整合。解析:步骤1:确定基础费用。“Kindergarten Full Day Program”费用为$800/周。步骤2:计算延迟接送费用。“3 late pick-ups”对应“Afternoon”栏的“3 days—$145”。步骤3:合计费用。$800 + $145 = $945,故选B。
B篇主题语境:人与自然——环境保护与生态恢复
【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了建筑师Deema Assaf转行后,在约旦利用Miyawaki方法种植原生森林,以恢复生态、对抗干旱,并推动社区参与环保行动的故事。
第24题.D 代词指代关系(上下文理解)。解析:第一段中,Assaf提到“We once had thick forests... animals which used to live together with people here.”随后她看着老橡树说:“Discovering that made me see the landscape from a different perspective.”这里的“that”指代前文发现的动物与人类曾共存的事实,即人与野生动物的和谐共存。故选D。
第25题.A 细节理解与因果关系。解析:第二段提到,Assaf受一个关于摩洛哥2000年人造森林的视频启发,视频展示了干旱国家中森林的可能形态。这直接激励她决心在约旦从事类似的生态恢复工作,即“Rejuvenate local ecology”。选项A准确概括了这一动机。故选A。
第26题.A 段落主旨与观点提取。解析:第四段中,Assaf提出“It is not drought that causes bare ground, it is bare ground that causes drought”,并强调“the more we work on greening, the more we give nature the ability to restore itself”。这突出了绿化对于生态恢复的核心作用,而非单纯讨论沙漠化原因或困难。故选A。
第27题.D 人物观点与态度。解析:最后一段中,Assaf强调“it is important to have people participate in growing forests”,并与学校、企业等合作,将其描述为“citizen-led species recovery intervention”。这明确表明社区参与是她使命的关键。选项D(Community engagement)符合文意。故选D。
C篇主题语境:人与社会——社会服务与人际沟通
【语篇导读】本文是一篇科普研究报告报道。文章报道了通过实验和数据分析了短信缩写对人际沟通的负面影响,指出缩写会降低信息接收者感知到的真诚度和回应意愿,但在不同社交场景中需灵活看待其使用。
第28题.A 细节理解与信息定位。解析:第二段结尾指出缩写信息可能显得不如完整拼写“真诚”(not as genuine),第四段进一步说明缩写会造成“负面印象”(negative impressions)。A项“使发送者显得不真诚”与此直接对应。故选A。
第29题.B 数据细节与普遍认知判断。解析:第三段提到“84% believe others don’t mind them”(84%的人认为别人不介意缩写),且80%认为他人对缩写漠不关心。B项“它们不会打扰他人”正是这种普遍假设的概括。故选B。
第30题.B 因果逻辑与研究发现核心。解析:第五段明确说明缩写会降低“感知到的努力程度”(decreasing perceived effort),进而影响真诚度和回应意愿。B项“发送者付出较少努力”是同义转述。故选B。
第31题.C 作者观点与建议。解析:最后两段中Fang强调需根据关系重要性调整沟通努力,并举了快递员对话与建立社交关系的对比,说明缩写使用需视具体情境而定。C项“取决于情境”准确概括。故选C。
D篇主题语境:人与社会——科学与技术
【语篇导读】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了生成式AI在创作过程中使用受版权保护材料所引发的侵权争议,并介绍了一种检测AI内容版权重叠度的技术及其对构建公平数据生态的启示。
第32题.D 文章核心主旨。解析:文章开头以AI生成类似《神秘博士》影片的例子引出问题:AI的“生成”是否真正原创?是否使用了受版权保护的素材?后文进一步展开版权检测技术的讨论,因此核心问题是“AI生成内容使用版权材料”的矛盾。故选D。
第33题.B 段落主旨概括。解析:第三段详细说明TraceID通过创建“神经指纹”映射内容特征,并通过比对计算重叠百分比,全段聚焦其工作原理,故选B。
第34题.B 词义推断。解析:第五段提到创作者要求补偿(compensation)并停止未经授权使用其作品,且“without remuneration”与“build on their work”形成因果,逻辑上指向“无报酬使用”,因此“remuneration”意为“报酬”。故选B。
第35题.C 人物观点推断。解析:Kathleen Grace强调“我们都能赢”(we can all win),并呼吁建立共享追踪内容的机制,使版权方更愿意提供数据,AI公司获得更多资源,最终形成良性生态系统。故选C。
七选五主题语境:人与社会——人际沟通
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何更有效地分享个人经验,包括注重细节、解释术语、勇敢表达等实用建议,并鼓励读者认识到所有经历都有分享价值。
第36题.G 因果关系与段落衔接。解析:前句提到“当你分享经历时,同伴会更愿意分享他们自己的”,后句则说“如果你因觉得自己经历不够重要而犹豫,请克服这种想法”。G项“分享对你重要的事没有限制”既能承接前句的鼓励分享,又能引出后句对心理障碍的破除,形成逻辑闭环。
第37题.A 段落主旨句。解析:本段后续内容均为对“分享细节”的具体展开,如“尽可能详细描述”“分享感受和原因”等,A项“分享细节”直接概括段落核心,符合“总—分”结构。
第38题.F 上下文逻辑与例证衔接。解析:本段主题是“解释术语”,后文举例说明“如果对方来自不同文化可能不理解术语,需换位思考”。F项“从他人角度思考”正是对该例子的理论概括,且“think from another person’s perspective”与后文“如果你是另一个人…”直接呼应。
第39题.E 并列关系与情感递进。解析:前句提到“分享时不必尴尬或害怕敞开心扉”,后文举例说明应勇敢表达不同观点。E项“你有权勇敢坦率”既与前句的“不要害怕”形成同义复现,又为后文的举例提供依据,强调“权利”与“勇气”的正当性。
第40题.D 总结句与主题呼应。解析:前句强调“经历无论大小都有价值”,后句进一步说明“分享的内容对他人是独特新鲜的”。D项“所有经历都以自己的方式重要”既呼应前文“all experiences are equally valuable”,又点明全文核心观点,适合作为结尾段的总结句。
完形填空主题语境:人与社会——个人、家庭、社区及社会交往
【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章以第一人称叙述作者从依赖手机拍摄快照转向使用胶片相机记录真实生活瞬间的成长经历,强调摄影的本质从追求社交认可回归到保存个人记忆与情感连接。
第41题.C 动词辨析与语境逻辑。解析:前文提到“手机拍快照”,后文提到“Instagram上的个人主页”,符合社交媒体上“分享”照片的典型行为。故选C。
第42题.B 动词辨析与目的状语。解析:前文“polished collection”(精心修饰的合集)说明照片是为了展示给同龄人看,旨在“给人留下印象”。impress最贴合社交媒体的心理动机。故选B。
第43题.A 动名词辨析与对比逻辑。解析:前文“from sharing images to...”形成对比,后文提到“为自己保存记忆”,capturing memories(捕捉/记录记忆)符合摄影行为的本质。故选A。
第44题.B 名词辨析与具体指代。解析:指代后文“翻看家庭相册”这一具体行为。故选B。
第45题.C 名词辨析与语义呼应。解析:家庭相册中的照片自然来自家庭的“过去”。故选C。

第47题.D 名词辨析与情感升华。解析:后文提到“每一张照片都是更大历史的一部分”,说明作者感受到了与家庭历史的“连接”。故选D。
第48题.A 形容词辨析与隐喻意义。解析:后文“a history that had been passed down”说明每张照片是“更大”历史的一部分。larger符合“整体与部分”的隐喻关系。故选A。
第49题.C 名词辨析与前文总结。解析:前一段描述作者通过家庭相册领悟到摄影的意义,此处“this realization”(这种领悟)自然引出下文行动。故选C。
第50题.B 名词辨析与行为描述。解析:胶片每卷只有36张,因此每张照片都需要“有意识的意图”,不能随意拍摄。故选B。
第51题.D 名词辨析与态度对比。解析:前文“If a picture didn’t turn out as I had hoped”说明照片可能存在瑕疵,后文“成为故事的一部分”体现接纳不完美。故选D。
第52题.A 名词辨析与社交媒体对比。解析:前文提到Instagram追求点赞,此处转折说明这些照片不为“点赞或评论”。likes是社交媒体典型反馈形式。故选A。
第53题.D 名词辨析与情感体验。解析:后文“被带回到那些时刻”说明冲洗照片是“重新发现”记忆的过程。故选D。
第54题.A 动词短语与比喻意义。解析:be transported back(被带回到)是常见比喻,表达沉浸于回忆。故选A。
第55题.C 名词辨析与全文主旨。解析:全文核心是作者从手机摄影到胶片摄影的“转变”。shift(转变)准确概括这一过程。故选C。
语法填空主题语境:人与社会——文化遗产与历史遗迹
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了麦积山石窟作为中国四大石窟之一的独特之处,包括其洞穴构造、雕像特点、历史沿革以及在中国雕塑和佛教发展史上的重要价值。
第56题.a 冠词用法。解析:此处“series”为可数名词单数,意为“一系列”,固定短语“a series of”表示“一系列……”,故填不定冠词“a”。
第57题.undoubtedly 词性转换(形容词转副词)。解析:句意“这些洞穴无疑是一个大型雕塑博物馆”,需要副词修饰整个句子,“undoubted”的副词形式为“undoubtedly”,意为“无疑地”。
第58题.whose 关系代词(引导非限制性定语从句)。解析:此处为非限制性定语从句,修饰“statues”,表示“雕像的高度”,需用关系代词“whose”表示所属关系,相当于“of which”。
第59题.created 非谓语动词(过去分词作定语)。解析:句意“少数由岩石雕刻的雕塑是从别处运来的”,“sculptures”与“create”之间为被动关系,且动作已完成,故用过去分词“created”作后置定语。
第60题.Judging 非谓语动词(现在分词作独立状语)。解析:固定短语“judging from”意为“从……判断”,在句中作状语,逻辑主语与句子主语不一致,但已形成习惯用法,故用现在分词“Judging”。
第61题.were carved 动词时态和语态(一般过去时的被动语态)。解析:句意“石窟被雕刻了1500年”,主语“grottoes”与“carve”之间为被动关系,且动作发生在过去(从公元384年到20世纪初),故用一般过去时的被动语态“were carved”。
第62题.destruction 词性转换(动词转名词)。解析:介词“of”后需接名词,“destroy”的名词形式为“destruction”,意为“破坏”,故填“destruction”。
第63题.for 介词用法(表示原因)。解析:句意“出于安全原因”,固定搭配“for...reasons”表示“出于……原因”,故填介词“for”。
第64题.are dedicated 动词时态和语态(一般现在时的被动语态)。解析:句意“所有设计都致力于追求佛教”,主语“designs”与“dedicate”之间为被动关系,且描述一般事实,故用一般现在时的被动语态“are dedicated”。
第65题.but 连词的固定搭配。解析:“not only...but (also)”为固定搭配,连接两个对等成分。在正式的书面语中,当连接较长的短语时,“also”常被省略,仅用“but”即可表达“而且”的递进含义。此处连接“track”的两个宾语,故填“but”。南通市2026届高三学业质量监测

Deema Assaf walked slowly through Birgish, one of only a few forests in Jordan, careful not to step on one of the delicate wild orchids. “We once had thick forests,” she said. “There were elephants, rhinos and the Asiatic lion, animals which used to live together with people here.” She looked up at the top of an old oak tree and said, “Discovering that made me see the landscape from a different perspective. It is fascinating to see the potential if human intervention were not affecting ecosystem negatively.”
Assaf is an architect and urban forester. After working as a full-time architect for more than ten years, Assaf left her job to look for something more meaningful. She was inspired by a video about a 2,000-year-old forest in Morocco. In the film, she saw a man-made forest in a dry country, with a high ceiling of foliage and walls of fruit trees. She decided that this was what she wanted to do in her native Jordan.
Her research led her to the Miyawaki method, which creates highly biodiverse, multi-layered native forests ten times faster than nature itself does. Her approach goes beyond planting individual trees. It is about establishing a complex and dynamic plant “community”, reconnecting native species that co-evolved together for thousands of years.
Jordan is one of the driest countries in the world, with 75 percent desert and little rainfall. Despite the challenge, Assaf believes it is crucial to act. “It is not drought that causes bare ground, it is bare ground that causes drought,” Assaf said. She claims that “the more we work on greening, the more we give nature the ability to restore itself.”
Assaf started small. Her first site was only 107 square meters. She has gradually built a database for native forest creation in Jordan. So far, she has planted four forests with more than 2,700 native plant seedlings. She also collects seeds for others, including those of endangered species in Jordan.
Assaf always emphasizes it is important to have people participate in growing forests.

As digital communication becomes the primary way many people connect, the language we use in these spaces is constantly evolving. Texting has developed its own dialect(方言), filled with abbreviations like “hru ” (how are you ). While nearly all texters use these shortcuts, the findings suggest that dashing off a swift “hru ” might not appear as genuine as taking the time to spell out: “How are you ”
“While abbreviations can save time and effort, our research suggests that they may also slow down effective communication and negatively influence interpersonal perceptions,” the authors write in Journal of Experimental Psychology.
The findings challenge the common assumption about texting culture. While 99% of people report using abbreviations and 84% believe others don't mind them, the research shows that abbreviated messages consistently create negative impressions. Perhaps most tellingly, only 15.8% of participants correctly predicted this negative impact, while 80% assumed others would be indifferent to abbreviations.
David Fang at Stanford University and his colleagues ran the studies to explore the impact of abbreviations in different messaging scenarios(情景). They examined over 200,000 conversations from 686 users spanning 37 countries and five continents. Researchers calculated the percentage of abbreviations participants used in their messages They discovered a clear pattern:conversations containing more abbreviations consistently died out faster.
“Our research reveals that texting abbreviations negatively affect interpersonal communication by decreasing perceived effort, which in turn leads to lower perceived sincerity and responsiveness. Ultimately, our findings highlight the importance of considering the impact of evolving language use in the digital era on the quality of interpersonal communication,” Fang and his colleagues concluded.
Texting abbreviations could contribute to loneliness if people find that social bonds weaken over time because they receive less frequent or positive replies to their texts, Fang said. But he doesn’t believe people should stop using abbreviations altogether.
“We often tailor the effort we put into conversations to match the significance of the relationship. In some cases, it makes sense to invest less effort, like quickly texting with a delivery driver,” Fang said. “However, our findings are especially relevant when we want to strengthen social ties, such as at the beginning of a relationship or when we need to make a good impression.”
28. What do the findings indicate about texting abbreviations
A. They make senders seem insincere. B. They have evolved over a long time.
C. They reshape digital communication. D. They are a shortcut to learning dialects.
29. What do texters commonly assume about abbreviations
A. They could become trendy. B. They would not bother others.
C. They could ruin communication. D. They would damage social connections.
30. Fang’s research reveals that the use of abbreviations is perceived as ________.
A. the evolution of language B. a lower effort from the sender
C. an improved conversational quality D. the preference for a shorter conversation
31. What is Fang’s view on using abbreviations
A. It enhances social ties. B. It should be abandoned.
C. It depends on the context. D. It can simplify the content.
D
Ask Google’s AI video tool to create a film of a time-travelling doctor who flies around in a blue British phone booth and the result, unsurprisingly, resembles(类似)Doctor Who. And if you ask OpenAI’s technology to do the same, a similar thing happens. What’s wrong with that, you may think The answer could be one of the biggest issues AI chiefs face as their era-defining technology becomes ever more widespread in our lives.
Google and OpenAI’s generative artificial intelligence is supposed to be just that一generative, meaning it develops novel answers to our questions. But how much of that output is original The problem is working out how much AI tools like Sora 2 and Veo 3 rely on someone else’s art to come up with their own inventions. One firm, however, claims to be able to shine a light on the issue.
TraceID by Vermillio can detect the percentage to which AI-generated content is based on copyrighted materials. One of the platform’s abilities is to create neural fingerprints for brands, characters or other IP. These fingerprints act as digital identifiers that map the unique characteristics of a given piece of content. By comparing this fingerprint against AI-generated content, it can determine how much the new content overlaps(重合)with the original, offering a percentage-based match.
The research showcases this process in action, using well-known films such as Doctor Who and James Bond as case studies. The findings Sora matched up to 62% with James Bond fingerprint, Google’s Veo 3 matched 80% to Doctor Who fingerprint, implying that they have leaned heavily on copyright-protected work to produce its output.
Many creative professionals demand compensation and an end to unauthorized use of their work until permissions are granted. They argue AI tools build on their work without remuneration, producing competing creations that undercut their industries.
Kathleen Grace, head of Vermillio, said: “We can all win if we just take a beat and figure out a way to share and track content. This would encourage copyright holders to release more data to AI companies and would give AI companies access to more interesting sets of data. Instead of giving all the money to AI companies, there would be this amazing ecosystem.”
32. What issue is presented at the beginning of the passage
A. Generative AI reinvents film production.
B. The capabilities of generative AI are expanding.
C. Generative AI is becoming increasingly widespread.
D. Copyrighted materials are used in AI-generated content.
33. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. Who uses TraceID. B. How TraceID works.
C. Why TraceID is developed. D. Where TraceID is used.
34. What does the underline word “remuneration” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Delay. B. Pay. C. Effort. D. Warning.
35. What message does Kathleen Grace want to convey
A. Limiting data hurts scientific progress. B. Copyright holders should release more data.
C. A fair data-sharing ecosystem benefits all. D. AI firms must disclose copyrighted content use.

Sharing is an essential part of our daily lives. When you share your experiences with your peers, they are more likely to feel comfortable sharing their own. _____36_____ If the thought of sharing your experiences holds you back because you believe that you don’t have big experiences to share, then, you should get over it right away because all experiences are equally valuable. Here are the tips to make your sharing experience more effective.
_____37_____ Make sure that you go into as much detail as possible. Try to picturise your experience for others so that they can just feel like you do. Share with them what you feel and why you feel that way. Start by sharing when you had the idea for what you are sharing. Then share what happened or what you thought. After that, share why it is important to you or why you think the way you do.
Explain the words. _____38_____ Would you understand every word of your dialogue if you were from another community If not, consider defining the jargon(术语). As an alternative to saying to your global peers, “I love Kathakali and you should definitely watch it someday.” Say something like: “I love Kathakali, which is a form of folk dance, in which the dancers present a drama wearing unique masks. You should watch it someday.”
Be fearless. While sharing an experience, you do not have to be embarrassed, afraid to open up. _____39_____ For example, suppose you are discussing gender equality, and some of your peers support the idea that women can only work in certain professions, and you disagree with them. Then, instead of fearing what people would think if you said something unconventional, just say it.
Now that you have read my tips for sharing, go share your own experiences, ideas, and thoughts with the rest of the world. Remember that no experience is too big or too small. _____40_____ Whatever you share would be unique and new to someone who has had different experiences or has different perspectives from you.

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。
For our long-service leave, my husband and I decided to travel around Tasmania with our camper trailer(野营拖车). We were coming all the way across Western Australia to get there—not exactly a “lap of the map”, but still a big trip. We’d packed our bikes, surfboards and our dog.
It was all going beautifully until we got to St Helens in Tasmania. We were looking forward to hitting the bike trails and the beach. But what was meant to be a fun day of mountain biking quickly turned into a stressful, late-night rescue when my husband broke his leg on the trail.
Thanks to the incredible local emergency services, he was located, rescued and airlifted to hospital. As I watched him being flown off the mountain by helicopter, relief flooded through me—and then reality hit. I was now solely responsible for the dog, the vehicle and the camper trailer still set up back at the campsite. Packing up the trailer was a two-person job. My family and friends were 4,000 km away in Western Australia. And my dog needed a walk!
The next day, new neighbours arrived at the campsite. Exhausted and worried, I managed a small smile as a man named Sam said hello and began setting up with his wife. I wondered what they thought—a solo woman with a dog, no partner in sight, and a camper trailer full of gear(齿轮).
Eventually, Sam’s curiosity got the better of him. He asked a few gentle questions and, after two days of silent stress, the whole story poured out.
Sam listened patiently, kindly. He nodded, said little, and returned to his own camp. That evening, he and his wife, Hillary, did something extraordinary. With no hesitation, they told me they’d pack everything up for me. “Tasmania has given us a warm hug,” they said. “Now we want to pass that hug on.”
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。
The next morning, true to their word, they arrived ready to help.
