2026届陕西铜川市印台区等2地高三上学期模拟检测（一）英语试题

阅读材料，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。

It was a Saturday. Whether it was sunny or cloudy, hot or cold, I cannot remember, but I do remember it was a Saturday because the mall was packed with people. I was with my mom. Mom is short and skinny. It is easy to overlook her in a crowd simply because she is nothing extraordinary to see.

On that day we walked down the road, taking quick looks at window boutiques (时装店) because we both knew we wouldn’t be buying much, like always. I remember I was looking up at the people we passed as we walked. Ladies wore bright and luxury clothing. An uneasy feeling started to settle in my chest. I tried to push it out, but once it took root it refused to go. It got more unbearable with every second until I could deny it no longer — I was ashamed of my mother.

We were in a high-class neighborhood; I knew that. We lived in a small, overpriced apartment building that Mom chose to move to because she knew the schools there were good. As I looked at the passers-by and then turned accusing eyes on Mom, I realized for the first time that we didn’t belong there. I could see the heavy lines around Mom’s eyes and mouth. She wore cheap, old clothes and shoes with the soles (鞋底) worn down. Her eyes were tired from working long hours to make ends meet and her hair was too gray for her age. I looked at her, and I was ashamed.

My mom is nothing extraordinary, yet at that moment she stood out because she was just so plain (朴素的). Saying I’d meet her at the clothes outlet (平价店) around the corner, I hurried away to the bathroom. I didn’t want to be seen with her, although there was no one important around to see me anyway. When I finally made my way to the outlet with hesitant steps, I found that Mom wasn’t there.

【答案】范文

With no other options, I had to search the other stores in the area for her. I was fearing to return to her side, already feeling the second hand embarrassment of being with her. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Mom was standing in the middle of a high-end store, holding a sweater that looked much too expensive. She said, “This will look good on you. Do you want it?” And I almost agreed, carelessly and thoughtlessly. Then I took a closer look at the small, weary woman with a big smile stretching across her narrow face and a sweater in her hands, happy to be giving me something so nice, and my words died in my throat.

I felt like I’d been dropped into a cold lake, facing Mom’s offer — buying me clothes. Her clothes were old because she spent her money buying me new ones. She looked so tired and unattractive all the time because she was busy working to provide for me. Suddenly, Mom was beautiful and extraordinary in my eyes. I was no longer ashamed of her, but of myself. At that moment, I made a promise to appreciate my mom for who she was. “Do you want it?” Mom repeated. “No, thanks.” I replied firmly.
