应用文参考范文
注意：接受不同形式的发明（如实物、APP、服务设计等等），只要符合题目要求。
允许学生直接介绍发明，使用故事、数据、疑问句等多样化开头。
I’m glad to introduce my invention, a Smart Recycling Bin, designed to guide users to
sort waste correctly and inspire eco-friendly habits.
Equipped with a camera and AI, it identifies trash types (plastic, paper, glass) and lights
up the matching bin. A voice reminder teaches recycling rules in fun ways. This invention
solves two issues: messy public bins and low recycling rates. By reducing landfill waste, it
protects soil and water. For schools and parks, it turns recycling into an educational game,
raising eco-awareness.
Lightweight and solar-powered, it requires no extra energy. Small actions, like dropping a
bottle into the right bin, can lead to cleaner cities and healthier communities. Let’s make
recycling effortless for everyone!
读后续写参考范文
Paragraph 1:
With a call that came from heart, I waved to her to get into my car. Ignoring the loud horns
behind me, I moved my car onto the icy side of the road to make space. The mother hurried in, holding
her shaking child. "It’ll be okay!" I said, driving carefully but quickly. Traffic lights passed by as I
focused on the slippery road. The child’s quiet cries filled the car, making my heart heavy. When we
finally stopped at the hospital entrance, the mother held my hand, tears in her eyes as she thanked me.
Watching her run inside, I took a deep breath—late for work, but feeling strangely relieved.
Paragraph 2:
The clock read 9:37 when I finally reached the office. My manager stood stiffly by my desk,
frowning. "What happened?" he asked coldly. Nervously, I told him about the morning. His serious
face softened when I described the sick child and the worried mother. After a pause, he suddenly said,
"You’ve honored what truly matters this morning." His cold look disappeared, replaced by a quiet nod.
He didn’t mention the pay cut. Back at my desk, coworkers smiled kindly. Outside, sunlight now
melted the ice—a small but hopeful warmth. Some decisions, even if they cost you something, make
things clear on the coldest mornings.
【导语】
本文以"冰雪救援"为线索展开，讲述主人公在早高峰遭遇车祸现场时，面对迟到扣薪与
救助病危婴儿的道德抉择。通过环境描写与心理独白，刻画了人物从焦虑到救赎的心
路历程，最终传递"善意超越利益"的价值观。
【详解】1. 段落续写
① 由第一段首句内容"随着内心的呼唤，我示意她上车"可知：
第一段可描写主人公忧心孩子的病情，突破交通堵塞在雪路疾驰，最终及时送医，待
到护士接手时作者默默离开，途中虽天气寒冷但内心充满温暖。
② 由第二段首句内容"当我最终到达办公室时，时钟指向9:37"可知：
第二段可描写主人公虽将面临罚款，但因帮助他人而倍感轻松愉悦；公司人性化处理
带来意外感动，以及冬季遇到类似情形的感悟，呼应首段冰雪环境描写。
【续写线索】
雪路疾驰→成功送医→默默离开→内心愉悦→公司理解→冬日感悟
【词汇激活】
行为类
① 加速行驶：accelerate cautiously/gun the engine within safe limits
② 婉拒酬谢：politely decline the reward/turn down compensation
情绪类
① 如释重负：with palpable relief/weight lifted off one's shoulders
② 百感交集：with mixed emotions/torn between conflicting feelings
【点睛】
【高分句型1】
"I pressed the gas pedal as hard as safety allowed, getting that mother and child to the
hospital in one piece."
（运用现在分词作状语，in one piece体现生动地道用法）
【高分句型2】
"when winter mornings pinch with particular bitterness, I think of the day when time froze
and hearts wavered, mine chose to beat warm"
（when引导时间状语从句，beat warm隐喻人心温暖）
【主题升华】
通过"冰雪→温暖"的环境隐喻，将"交通堵塞"物理困境升华为"道德困境"，最终"人性
善意融化心结和制度坚冰"的意象收束全篇，与首段"frost wrapped world"形成环形结构。
答案详解
A篇
【导语】本文是一篇应用文，介绍了由 DoSomething.org 提供的社区服务奖学金项
目。
21. B细节理解题。根据文章第一段第一句“If you’re aged 13 to 25 and living
in the U.S., you can earn scholarships by volunteering!”，这表明参与奖学金
申请的条件是年龄在13到25岁之间且居住在美国，即需要是一名 13 - 25岁的美国居
民，所以选 B。根据文章第一段第二句“no essays, GPA requirements, or
recommendations needed”，申请不需要论文、GPA要求和推荐信，故A错误。根据第
二段第二句“You can enter multiple scholarships and even if you haven't
selected a college”故 C 错误。根据第三段第二句“Visit the DoSomething
homepage or the action pages for details on current scholarship
opportunities”，线上申请，故D错误。
22.C 细节理解题。根据第三段第二句“Visit the DoSomething homepage or the
action pages for details on current scholarship opportunities”可知，申请人
想要了解当前奖学金机会的详细信息，可以访问DoSomething的主页或活动页面，所
以答案为C。易错项是A选项，完成志愿社区服务是获取奖学金的方式而非了解信息的
方式。
23. C细节理解题。根据最后一段“Subscribe to our monthly newsletter, ‘PaysTo Do Good’, to see each month’s scholarship and other awardees.”可知，
订阅“Pays To Do Good”时事通讯的目的是查看每月的奖学金情况和其他获奖者信
息，即获取奖学金机会和其他获奖者的最新消息，所以选C。
B
【导语】本文是一篇介绍性的说明文，讲述了美国亚利桑那州立大学（ASU）校园内
的一种新型退休生活模式——大学退休社区。文章通过介绍 Mirabella 社区的运作方
式和特点，展示了老年人从中可获得的益处，同时也探讨了这种模式对大学和退休人
员的双赢意义。
24. B 细节理解题。 根据第一段最后一句But the hearing aids suggest how unusual this
class is.以及第二段开头“Mirabella, a 20-storey ‘university retirement community’ on
ASL's campus, is home to over 300 retirees.可知，老年人参与是ASU课堂与众不同的地
方。
25. D 细节理解题。 根据第三段中的描述：“In their dorms, four restaurants serve better
food than college meals and facilities include an art studio, a pool and gym, and a games
room. Only the second floor feels institutional, with a memory-care centre and rooms for
residents who need round-the-clock attention.” 可知，居民可以享受休闲活动（如艺术工
作室、游泳池、健身房、游戏室）以及医疗保健（如记忆护理中心和全天候护理）。
26. A 推理判断题。 根据最后一段中的描述：“‘The charity is the icing on the cake,’
he says of the potential that residents will include universities in their wills.” 可知，Andrew
Carle提到，居民可能会在遗嘱中包括大学，这暗示大学可能会从退休人员的慷慨中受
益。
27. C 主旨大意题。整篇文章讲述了美国大学与退休社区结合的趋势，特别是
Mirabella 社区的居民可以像学生一样参加大学课程和活动，同时享受更好的生活设施
和医疗保健。因此，“Senior Living: Back to School”这个标题最能概括文章的主要内
容。
C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了植物仿生机器人领域的发展及其应用前景。文章
通过介绍意大利机器人专家Barbara Mazzolai及其团队开发的“FiloBot”，展示了植
物行为对机器人设计的启发以及植物仿生机器人在实际应用中的潜力。
28. D 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Yet,Barbara Mazzolai,an Italian roboticist,notes
that the field of robotics is far less keen to investigate another major category of
living things— plants,which may originate from a misconception that plants are
incapable of movement or perception.”可知，文章第一段主要强调植物仿生机器人被
忽视的潜力，因为人们普遍认为植物不能移动或感知，这种观点是错误的。因此，本
段的重点是植物仿生机器人被忽视的潜力。
29. B 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“FiloBot mimics these behaviors using sensors in
its head.It can rapidly grow by 3D-printing its own body and can twist around
supports by growing in a winding pattern.”以及“...they also use information from
light and gravity receptors distributed along each shoot.”可知，FiloBot通过头部的传
感器感知光线和重力变化，并通过3D打印自身身体来快速生长和缠绕支撑物，从而在
复杂环境中导航。
30. A 词义猜测题。根据最后一段中的“...it is not the only plantlike robot the team is
cultivating. Since 2012, Dr Mazzolai has been developing “plantoids” based on roots toanalyze chemicals or locate water sources. she hopes that such projects will inspire other
roboticists to take their cues from botany.”以及... So we can develop completely new
technologies and artificial solutions.可以推断，“take one’s cue from”在这里的意思是
“从……中汲取灵感”，即从植物学中获取灵感来开发新的机器人技术。因此，选项
A“Draw inspiration from”是最佳解释。
31. A 推理判断题。根据全文内容以及最后一段中的 “...she hopes that such projects
will inspire other roboticists to take their cues from botany...So we can develop
completely new technologies and artificial solutions.”可以推断，FiloBot的设计表明自
然生物（如植物）的生存策略可以启发开发出更具适应性的机器人技术。
D
【导语】本文探讨了视频内容如何重塑互联网生态，分析了技术普及、互动性提升、
潜在风险及未来媒介融合趋势。
32.B 推理判断题。根据第二段“video production has been popularized by smartphones
and social media apps”，指出智能手机和社交媒体应用降低了技术门槛。原文强调技术
飞跃（technological leap）使普通人能够即时拍摄、编辑和分享视频，直接对应选项B
中“经济实惠且用户友好的技术”克服了传统技术（如专业设备）和资金障碍。选项
A（全球需求增长）和C（自我表达兴趣）虽相关，但非直接原因；D（教育系统推
动）未被提及。
33.B 细节理解题。根据第二段末尾引用Brianna Wiens的观点：“Videos capture
practical details words can’t convey”，并以MIT研究佐证视频在传授实践技能（如机械
维修、外科手术）上的优势。视频通过视觉和动态演示弥补文本抽象描述的不足，直
接对应“实践技能”（hands-on skills）。选项A（抽象概念）与原文矛盾；C（机械模
仿）和D（技术障碍）为干扰项。
34.C细节理解题。根据第四段提到“AI could soon generate realistic fake videos, flooding
the web with misinformation”，明确点明虚假信息风险。AI生成的逼真假视频可能导致
信息污染，选项C准确概括此风险。选项A（制作成本）和D（编辑标准化）未提
及；B（依赖感召力）虽与“视觉魅力奖励”相关，但非AI特有风险。
35.D 推理判断题。根据第四段Lev Manovich指出“We’re creating hybrid media”，并以
“文本评论伴随视频观看”为例，说明媒介融合趋势。未来沟通并非单一媒介取代
（如选项C），而是新旧媒介共存（hybrid media），选项D符合。选项A（文本主
导）与视频崛起矛盾；B（AI消除风险）未被支持。
七选五
【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要阐述了爱好对人们在身体、大脑、社交以及心理
等方面的积极作用。
36.C本题考查上下文逻辑关系。文章开篇点明 “Far from a waste of time, pastimes
are good for body, brain and spirit.”，强调爱好对身体、大脑和精神有益。C 选项既
承接了前文爱好有益的观点，又引出后文对拥有不同爱好的每一个人具体健康益处的
举例说明，起到了很好的过渡作用。
37.G本题考查上下文逻辑关系。前文提到从事爱好是自我放纵甚至是浪费时间，而后
文却举例说明爱好对健康的好处，G选项在此处需要进行反驳，说明爱好能带来健康
益处，同时下文的例子也与G选项中的 “which differ by activity”相对应。
38.E 本题考查上下文逻辑关系。前文“hobbies improve our ability of the brain’s
neural networks ...... beyond just one particular skill.”强调爱好对大脑能力提升以及在
多方面产生积极影响。E 选项通过具体例子（演奏乐器与数学成绩的关系），进一步
说明前文。39.F本题考查文章结构和段落主旨。此段为文章分述部分，主要讲述了爱好在帮助人
们建立社交联系、找到群体归属感方面的作用。F 选项准确概括了该段的核心内容，
作为主题句，能够引领全段。
40.D本题考查上下文逻辑关系。前文提到人类需要意义，需要能给他们目标感的事物，
后文说明爱好对人们心理状态的积极影响。D 选项 “that” 指代前文提到的 “获得
意义和目标感”，表明爱好能满足人们对意义和目标感的需求，在上下文中起到了很
好的衔接作用。

语法填空
【导语】该文为一篇新闻稿，简述中国馆在伦敦旅游交易会上以传统风格展示中国旅
游业理念，并介绍中国旅游业多项举措，呼吁国际旅游业者参与合作、共建中国旅游
新篇章。
56.authorities本句中and连接两个并列成分，“authority”可数名词，故用复数。
57.themed 分析句子结构，本句已经有谓语动词“brings together”，所以
“theme”要用非谓语形式。“be themed on”是固定搭配，意为“以……为主题”，
此处“the China Pavilion”与“theme”是被动关系，即“中国馆被以……为主题”，
所以用过去分词“themed”修饰“the China Pavilion”。
58.reflects 此句是在陈述客观事实，要用一般现在时。主语是“The theme of high
- quality and green development of tourism in China”，是一个单数概念，根据
主谓一致原则，谓语动词要用第三人称单数形式，所以填“reflects”。
59.that/which这里是一个定语从句，先行词是“sustainable growth”，指物，在
从 句 “ not only enhances travelers’ experience but also protects the
environment and respects local cultures”中作主语，所以可以用关系代词
“that”或“which”来引导定语从句。
60.accessible“make + 宾语 + 宾语补足语”，这里需要用形容词作宾语补足语，
与“appealing”并列，“access”的形容词形式是“accessible”，表示“使旅游更
易到达和更有吸引力”。
61.becoming 分析句子结构，前面“China has developed the world’s largest
domestic tourism market”是一个完整的句子，有谓语动词，后面要用非谓语动词作
状语。“China”与“become”是主动关系，所以用现在分词“becoming”作状语。
62.is involved/has been involved此句中“and”连接三个并列的谓语动词，前面
两个分别是“has mutual visa - free arrangements”和“offers visa - free
entry”，都是一般现在时，所以这里也用一般现在时。“be involved in”是固定短
语，意为“参与”，主语“China”是单数，所以可用“is involved”。中国参与国
际旅游交流合作，这应该是一个持续性的动作，表示一直参与或已参与，所以可用has
been involved。
63.participation/participating本空位于介词短语 "look forward to" 之后，且
被物主代词 "your" 修饰，因此需填入名词或动名词形式，使短语 "your ______" 整
体作为介词 "to" 的宾语。64.with“interaction with sb.”是固定搭配，意为“与某人的互动”，所以这里填
“with”，表示“你们与中国人民的互动”。
65.but根据语境“not slogans...real efforts”可知，这里是“not...but...”结
构，意为“不是……而是……”，表示“不是口号而是真正的努力将为中国注入新的
力量”，所以填“but”。

Text 10(第17题为总结题)
Good evening,everyone.I feel truly honored to be the first to share at today's book
club meeting.I'd like to tell you the story of Jimmy Wales. He worked as a teacher before
earning a degree that allowed him to enter the world of finance and got his first financial
job in 1994.(18)He used the money he earned there to fund a number of companies,
including a website called Nupedia,which ran from 2000 to 2003.(19)Although short-
lived,this site served as a road map for Wales' biggest success—Wikipedia.This free and
open-content site grew rapidly with help from the growing popularity of the Internet. Within
five years of its launch(推出),Wales found himself on Time magazine's list of 100 most
influential people in the world. He dreamed of everyone in the world having a way to get
human knowledge.(20)In the following decade,he delivered speeches on the future of the
Internet.He moved to London in 2012.At one point,he acted as an adviser to the UK
government on how to make academic research available for free.So we should pay our
respects to him!
