2024·广东模拟Ⅰ 说明文 310词 ★★★★☆
For some people, October is Octobear. On October 5, Katmai National Park and Preserve in
southern Alaska kicked off Fat Bear Week, when fans compare before and after photos of bears to
vote for the one they think has gained the most weight before they bed down for the long freezing
winter. Bear 747, also known as “Bear Force One”， took the firstplace spot with 68，
105 votes. It weighed around 1，400 pounds.
Fat Bear Week started in 2014. At first, it was just Fat Bear Tuesday. Mike Fitz, a former
park keeper at Katmai, noticed that live webcams showing the bears generated a lot of online
comments, so he let people vote for their favorite fat bear on the Internet. The oneday event
attracted 1，700 votes. In 2015 , it was extended to a week. Last year, nearly 800，000 people
got involved, turning it into a global campaign.
The contest serves two main purposes. First, some of America's national parks are in remote
and undeveloped areas, which are difficult or costly to reach. Fat Bear Week brings Alaska's
wilderness to fans' computer screens. “ It's not limited to the fortunate few who can go to the
river anymore，” Fitz said.
Second, Fat Bear Week brings attention to the bears and the ecosystems they live in. “
The 2，200 bears of Katmai are strong for feeding on some of the healthiest salmon (三文鱼)
in the world，” said Sara Wolman, a former park keeper. Salmon in the Pacific Northwest are
suffering from overfishing, dam construction and warming rivers due to climate change. Luckily,
Brooks River, which Katmai's bears like to fish in, has been free from these threats so far.
Fat Bear Week has spread like viruses. Fans and creators say it's because it shows a
conservation success story. For one week, people don't have to focus on climate change or habitat
loss. “ Maybe things aren't super great all the time in the world，” said Felicia Jimenez, who
is a current Katmai keeper. “ But there are some really fat bears in Alaska. ”
【语篇解读】 本文介绍了位于阿拉斯加州南部的卡特迈国家公园和自然保护区举办

like to fish in, has been free from these threats so far”可知，幸运的是，到目前为止，卡特
迈的熊喜欢在布鲁克斯河捕鱼的地方还没有受到这些威胁→定答案：由此可知，卡特迈的

合各选项可知，A项概括了文章的大意，最适合作本文的标题，故选A。

2022·全国乙卷 应用文 321词 ★★★★☆
In 1916, two girls of wealthy families, best friends from Auburn, N．Y.—Dorothy Woodruff
and Rosamond Underwood—traveled to a settlement in the Rocky Mountains to teach in a one-
room schoolhouse. The girls had gone to Smith College. They wore expensive clothes. So for
them to move to Elkhead, Colo. to instruct the children whose shoes were held together with string
was a surprise. Their stay in Elkhead is the subject of Nothing Daunted: The Unexpected
Education of Two Society Girls in the West by Dorothy Wickenden, who is a magazine editor and
Dorothy Woodruff's granddaughter.
Why did they go then? Well, they wanted to do something useful. Soon, however, they
realized what they had undertaken.
They moved in with a local family, the Harrisons, and like them, had little privacy, rare baths,
and a blanket of snow on their quilt when they woke up in the morning. Some mornings,
Rosamond and Dorothy would arrive at the schoolhouse to find the children weeping from the
cold. In spring, the snow was replaced by mud over ice.
In Wickenden's book, she expanded on the history of the West and also on feminism, whichof course influenced the girls' decision to go to Elkhead. A hairraising section concerns the
building of the railroads, which entailed (牵涉) drilling through the Rockies, often in blinding
snowstorms. The book ends with Rosamond and Dorothy's return to Auburn.
Wickenden is a very good storyteller. The sweep of the land and the stoicism (坚忍) of the
people move her to some beautiful writing. Here is a picture of Dorothy Woodruff, on her horse,
looking down from a hill top：“When the sun slipped behind the mountains, it shed a rosy glow
all around them. Then a full moon rose. The snow was marked only by small animals: foxes,
coyotes, mice, and varying hares, which turned white in the winter.”

Ⅱ.七选五
2024·东北五市质检 说明文 245词 ★★★☆☆
A threeact structure is one particular way in which a story can be told and is often employed
to write a screenplay. __1__. Though some writers find it imperfect, this structure works well for
many screenplays.
The first act of the threeact structure is typically described as being the first fourth of a story.
A 120minute film would have the first act of about 30 minutes in length. In this section, the main
and supporting characters are introduced and the basic problem of the story is presented.
__2__．
Following the plot point, the second act of a story begins, as the hero sets off to solve the
problem. __3__； therefore, it might be the middle 60 minutes of a 120minute film. During this
act, numerous obstacles (障碍) arise to prevent the hero from solving the problem.
At one point in the second act, all hope seems lost and the characters believe that success
cannot be achieved. This is called the midpoint and falls about halfway through the story.
__4__， and continue moving with renewed purpose toward the plot point that ends the second
act.
__5__. In other words, it is about the last 30 minutes of a 120minute film. In this section, the
problem reaches its climax (高潮) at the moment of the greatest dramatic tension. Once this
occurs, the problem is essentially solved and the remaining story is a resolution. It allows the
audience to return to normality and enjoy the victory of the hero over the problem.
A．They come through this, however
B．This act is usually half of the story
C．The problem seems to be challenging
D．The final act is the last fourth of the story
E．They have reached a low point, experiencing a “false” loss
F．It ends with a plot point that consists of the hero taking on the problem
G．This basic format breaks up the story into three pieces, each called an “act”
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在编写电影剧本时经常采用的三
幕式结构。
1．答案与解析：G 解题步骤如下：
空前提到三幕式结构是讲述故事的一种特殊方式，在写电影剧本时
①分析语境 也经常使用，这是对三幕式结构的具体解释；空后提到对这一结构
寻线索 的评价。由此可知，空处应承接上文，进一步对三幕式结构进行阐
释。
②对比选项 G项“这种基本形式将故事分成三部分，每一部分称为‘一幕’”
定答案 与空前内容衔接紧密，且能够总领下文的“The first act”“the secondact”等内容，符合语境。
2.答案与解析：F 解题步骤如下：
根据空前内容可知，本段主要介绍的是三幕式结构中第一幕的具
①分析语境 体内容，因此空处应呼应此主题。再结合下一段开头的
寻线索 “Following the plot point... the problem”可知，空处内容还应能够
引出下文，且涉及“plot point”“problem”。
F项“它以一个情节点结束，该情节点是主人公承担起解决问题
②对比选项 的责任”承上启下，符合语境。F项中的“a plot point”和“taking
定答案 on the problem”与下文中的“the plot point”和“solve the problem”
对应。
3.答案与解析：B 空前提到故事的第二幕开始了。空后提到因此，它可能是一部 120
分钟的电影的中间60分钟。由此可知，空处内容应与故事的第二幕有关，且能与空后内容
构成因果关系，故B项“这一幕通常是故事的一半”符合语境。
4．答案与解析：A 空前提到在第二幕的某一时刻，所有的希望似乎都破灭了，剧中
的角色都认为成功是不可能实现的，空后提到带着新的决心继续朝着第二幕结束的情节点
前进。由此可知，空处应提到剧中的角色已经克服了困难。A项“然而，他们还是挺过来
了”符合语境。该选项中的“They”指代上文中的“the characters”，“this”指代上文提到的
所有的希望似乎都破灭了，剧中的角色都认为成功是不可能实现的这一情况。
5．答案与解析：D 空处为段落主题句。根据文章的整体结构以及空后提到的换句话
说，它是一部120分钟的电影的最后30分钟可知，空处应是在说明三幕式结构中的第三幕。
D项“最后一幕是故事的最后四分之一”能够总领下文，符合语境。

A Chinese Classic Recitation Competition
Last Friday afternoon, our school witnessed a Chinese Classic Recitation Competition at the
first lecture hall to encourage us students to appreciate Chinese culture. Representatives of each
class took an active part in the competition.
Participants were required to recite a Chinese classic within five minutes. Many classic
works were recited, among which poems were the most popular choice. After a hot competition,
