课时作业34 UNIT 3 SEA EXPLORATION
Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2025·江西南昌模拟)It started innocently enough, as most things do.My son Nick had been eager to try rock climbing and he needed a partner.As a 45-year-old mother, I am not a physical person at all.But I still decided to join him in a training class.The first time I reached the top and returned safely to the ground, I was flooded with a mix of emotions.My body trembled with adrenaline (肾上腺素), as I had pushed myself harder than I ever thought possible, but I had accomplished it.
Four months into my bouldering (攀岩) journey, I had an accident while climbing.I’m not sure what exactly happened, but I believe my foot missed a hold on the way down.I didn’t land properly and injured my lower back.I was taken to the hospital by ambulance.I feared that I would never return to rock climbing or bouldering and said to Nick sadly, “A piece of me would slip away.It would be forgotten and lie passive forever.I couldn’t let that happen.”
It took nearly three months before I felt strong enough to give it another try.Nick was supportive throughout the process.I made it halfway up, but then panic set in.I felt like I had let myself and Nick down.He reassured me, telling me not to worry, to take my time, and to try a different route when I was ready.Fifteen minutes later, I chose a different path.I kept reminding myself that I could change my mind at any time.Along the way, Nick guided and encouraged me.To my surprise, I made it to the top and back to the ground safely.
Rock climbing was doing wonders for me.It has not only enhanced my physical and mental strength but also implanted in me a newfound sense of confidence.Moreover，it serves as an excellent opportunity for Nick and me to strengthen our bond, while encouraging me to explore more possibilities, embodying the spirit of pushing myself to the limits.
[语篇解读]　本文是一篇记叙文。为了陪伴儿子Nick 尝试攀岩，作为一位45岁且不喜欢体育活动的母亲，作者参加了攀岩训练班。在攀岩之旅开始四个月后，作者意外受伤，担心自己再也无法攀岩。在近三个月后，作者在Nick的支持下再次尝试攀岩，中途虽遇恐慌，但最终成功登顶并安全返回。攀岩不仅增强了作者的身心力量，还增进了作者与儿子的关系，鼓励作者去探索更多的可能性。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2025·江西南昌模拟)It started innocently enough, as most things do.My son Nick had been eager to try rock climbing and he needed a partner.As a 45-year-old mother, I am not a physical person at all.But I still decided to join him in a training class.The first time I reached the top and returned safely to the ground, I was flooded with a mix of emotions.My body trembled with adrenaline (肾上腺素), as I had pushed myself harder than I ever thought possible, but I had accomplished it.
Four months into my bouldering (攀岩) journey, I had an accident while climbing.I’m not sure what exactly happened, but I believe my foot missed a hold on the way down.I didn’t land properly and injured my lower back.I was taken to the hospital by ambulance.I feared that I would never return to rock climbing or bouldering and said to Nick sadly, “A piece of me would slip away.It would be forgotten and lie passive forever.I couldn’t let that happen.”
It took nearly three months before I felt strong enough to give it another try.Nick was supportive throughout the process.I made it halfway up, but then panic set in.I felt like I had let myself and Nick down.He reassured me, telling me not to worry, to take my time, and to try a different route when I was ready.Fifteen minutes later, I chose a different path.I kept reminding myself that I could change my mind at any time.Along the way, Nick guided and encouraged me.To my surprise, I made it to the top and back to the ground safely.
Rock climbing was doing wonders for me.It has not only enhanced my physical and mental strength but also implanted in me a newfound sense of confidence.Moreover，it serves as an excellent opportunity for Nick and me to strengthen our bond, while encouraging me to explore more possibilities, embodying the spirit of pushing myself to the limits.
[语篇解读]　本文是一篇记叙文。为了陪伴儿子Nick 尝试攀岩，作为一位45岁且不喜欢体育活动的母亲，作者参加了攀岩训练班。在攀岩之旅开始四个月后，作者意外受伤，担心自己再也无法攀岩。在近三个月后，作者在Nick的支持下再次尝试攀岩，中途虽遇恐慌，但最终成功登顶并安全返回。攀岩不仅增强了作者的身心力量，还增进了作者与儿子的关系，鼓励作者去探索更多的可能性。

3．What was the key to the author’s successful try after recovery

4．Which of the following is the best title for the text
A．Facing Up to the Next Challenge
B．Reaching for a Lifelong Ambition

1．答案：revealed
解析：考查动词的时态。分析句子，设空处为谓语动词，根据句中on Thursday以及句意可知，此处表示过去发生的事实，故使用一般过去时。故填revealed。
2．答案：cultural
解析：考查词性转换。分析句子，设空处使用culture的形容词形式cultural作定语，修饰名词，意为“文化的”。故填cultural。
3．答案：explorations
解析：考查词性转换。分析句子，设空处使用explore的名词形式exploration作主语，意为“探索”，此处表示复数意义。故填explorations。
4．答案：significantly
解析：考查词性转换。分析句子，设空处使用significant的副词形式significantly作状语，修饰动词，意为“重要地，显著地”。故填significantly。
5．答案：which
解析：考查定语从句。分析句子，设空处与空前的of构成“介词＋关系代词”引导的非限制性定语从句，先行词是artifacts，指物，关系代词用which。故填which。
6．答案：were determined
解析：考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。分析句子，设空处作谓语。句中the precise locations of the shipwrecks and the associated cultural relics与determine之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，同时句子表述过去事实，故使用一般过去时的被动语态，主语为复数形式，系动词用were。故填were determined。
7．答案：a

解析：考查非谓语动词。分析句子，句中has yielded为谓语动词，设空处使用非谓语动词，此处The Ming Dynasty’s No.1 shipwreck与measure之间是主谓关系，measure意为“(重/长/宽)量度为……”，此时该动词为系动词，无被动，此时measure的主动形式表示被动意义，用现在分词作定语。故填measuring。
9．答案：from
解析：考查介词。句中date from为固定短语，意为“追溯于，起始于”。故填from。
10．答案：included
