Working as a engineer, he often deals with complex problems, which requires great patience and a sharp mind.What I truly admire is his optimism and resilience. I will never forget how he comforted our family when his project failed last year, saying that difficulties would be overcome as long as I was determined. His positive attitude, which always lights up our home, teaches me the real meaning of strength. Inspired by him, I have learned to face my own challenges at school with a more positive mindset. He is my lifelong role model. 范文二:伟大的科学家 (A Great Scientist) The Person I Look Up To The person I look up to is Yuan Longping, revered as the "Father of Hybrid Rice." His lifelong mission, which was to rid the world of hunger, has saved millions of lives. What makes me admire him most is not just his brilliant achievement, but his great determination and dedication. Despite being a world-famous scientist, he spent most of his time working in the rice fields, which showed his deep connection to the land and the people. His story inspires me to study harder and contribute to society. Although he passed away, his spirit encourages young people like me to pursue our dreams with perseverance. He is a true hero. 范文三:背诵句式集中应用版 My Role Model: Yuan Longping My Role Model , Yuan Longping, who is known as the "father of hybrid rice", is universally considered one of the greatest agricultural scientists. What impressed people most about him was his ongoing ability to fulfil his dreams . He dedicated his life to scientific research, and his achievements prove that it is indeed an honor for China’s agricultural research to benefit the entire world. His story has a profound impact on me. Even though the research work was intensely demanding, telling whether he was in the lab or in the fields was sometimes impossible . Yet, his perseverance taught me to always look on the positive side and accept challenges rather than resist them. And if I am feeling down, there is nothing better than remembering his smiling face , which symbolizes hope and dedication. He is my true role model. 答案详解 A 【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了南美洲巴塔哥尼亚地区原始的自然风 貌,包括其冰川、草原、国家公园等独特景观,同时也探讨了其在旅游开发和 环境保护方面所面临的困境。 21. D. 细节理解题。根据题干中的“Perito Moreno Glacier”,定位至文章小 标题“The Ice Giants”。该段明确写道:“Unlike most glaciers melting away due to climate change, this 30-km-long ice river still advances daily...”. 这句话的核心在于“Unlike most glaciers melting away”,并通过“still advances”形成鲜明对比,直接点明了它的独特之处。22.C. 细节理解题。根据题干中的“Torres de Paine National Park”,定位至 文章小标题“A Hiker’s Paradox”。该段直接指出:“...but its fame brings challenges. Park rangers enforce strict ‘leave no trace’ rules to protect fragile ecosystems from over 250,000 annual visitors.”这句话清晰地表明,主 要的担忧(challenges)来自于大量的游客(over 250,000 annual visitors)。精 准对应了原文“保护脆弱生态系统免受大量游客影响”的核心信息。 23. C.推理判断题。本题涉及对巴塔哥尼亚整体保护现状的概括,需综合全 文,特别是最后一段“Conservation Dilemma”的信息。 最后一段提到: “While 30% of Patagonia is now protected, debates continue... The answers may determine whether Patagonia’s beauty remains completely wild.”这表明, 尽管有部分区域被保护,但由于存在持续的争议和未解决的问题(如水电站、 生态旅游),其最终能否保持完全的原始状态仍然是一个悬而未决的问题。 B 【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文,报道了英格兰东部萨福克郡的两位养猪农场 主兄弟通过将半数农场土地改种野花,成功为百万只蜜蜂提供栖息地和食物来 源的环保事迹,并阐述了此举对生态平衡和可持续发展的重要意义。 24. A.细节理解题。根据第一段关键信息 “turn over half of their land to wildflowers”和 “fill 81 acres of their farm land with wildflowers”可知,这81英亩 是他们总土地面积的一半。因此,他们的总土地面积约为 81英亩 × 2 = 162英 亩,约等于160英亩。故选项A正确。选项B(为猪种花)与文章主旨(为蜜 蜂种花)不符;选项C(不擅长种野花)与项目成功的现状相悖;选项D(必 须养活一百万只蜜蜂)在语气上带有“负担”之意,而原文“feeding”旨在说明 其生态成效,并非强调一种被迫承担的责任。 25. B.细节理解题。根据第二段马克的陈述 “...East England is one of the worst places where bees are seriously suffering from lack of foraging (觅食) diversity”可 知,威胁主要来自缺乏多样化的食物(野花)来源。其他选项(气候变化、农 药、被猎杀)在文中均未被马克提及为原因。 26. A.推理判断题。结合保罗接下来的话 “Between us we have six children and we owe it to them to farm sustainability and set an example for the generations to come”可知,他强调的是一种对土地可持续发展的责任感和对后代的责任,而不 仅仅是作为农民的一份工作(选项 D)或单纯的遗产继承(选项 C)。选项B (政府付费)在文中完全没有依据。 27.B.观点态度题。根据文章最后一句,吉尔·珀金斯称兄弟俩的行动是 “a beacon of hope demonstrating what's possible, which is of great significance for humans now and future”这表明她认为这是一个具有示范效应和全球性意义的重 大贡献,而不仅仅是局部性的(选项 D),更不是影响甚微(选项A)或应受 批评的(选项C)。C 【文章大意】本文是一篇科普说明文,介绍了日本东北大学的研究人员如何通 过动作捕捉技术创建一个专注于日本人群体的、涵盖多种情境的身体语言情绪 表达数据库。文章阐述了该研究的独特性、方法、发现及其在促进跨文化理解 和相关产业中的应用前景。 28. C.细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句 “...this new database aims to capture a wide range of emotional bodily expressions across various situations, with a focus on Japanese people...”(……这个新数据库旨在捕捉各种情境下的广泛情绪身体表 达,并重点关注日本人……),并与前文提到的旧数据库“primarily based on Western populations”(主要基于西方人群)进行对比可知,其独特性在于它探索 了身体语言中的文化差异,特别是以日本人群为焦点。选项 A是旧数据库的特 点;选项B不准确,新研究主要关注日本人群,并未同时分析西方人群;选项 D在文中未作为研究重点被强调。 29. D.细节理解题。根据第三段第一句 “...six professional performers were asked to think back to situations that made them...and act them out using full-body movement.”(……六位专业表演者被要求回忆让他们产生……情绪的情境,并 用全身动作将其表演出来)可知,他们的任务是回忆并表演出个人的情绪经 历。选项A(将录像转为动画)是研究人员后续的处理工作;选项B(按指令 精确移动身体)和选项C(尽可能清晰地表达情绪)均未准确描述“回忆特定 情境并表演”这一核心任务。 30. C.词义猜测题。该词出现在 “Study members watched these animations and discerned the expressed emotions.” 的语境中。其后的结果指出 “they could recognize the emotions only from body movements”(他们可以仅从身体动作中识 别出情绪),这表明“discerned”的含义与“识别(recognize)”紧密相关。因 此,它的意思最接近理解(Understood),即观察者能够看懂并理解动画中所 表达的情绪。其他选项“隐藏”、“绘制”、“控制”均不符合上下文逻辑。 31. B. 段落主旨题。最后一段集中阐述了这项研究及其创建的数据库的未来价 值和应用前景,包括“improve understanding of cultural differences” , “helpful in developing...tools...”以及“expected to benefit researchers and industries...”。所 有这些都指向了新数据库的重要意义(significance of the new database)。选项 A(研究的未来方向)过于宽泛,段落重点是其价值和应用,而非具体的研究 计划;选项C和D都是该数据库意义的一部分,但不足以概括整段主旨。 D 【文章大意】本文是一篇科技说明文,主要介绍了无线通信技术从 1G到5G的 历史发展,并重点展望了下一代6G技术的核心特点及其在医疗、交通、智慧 城市等领域的潜在应用和变革性影响。 32.D.主旨大意题。第二段以时间为序,清晰地介绍了无线通信技术从1G(模 拟语音)、2G(数字语音)、3G(移动互联网)到4G(高速数据)的演变过程。关键词如“entered the scene in the 1980s”、“in the 1990s”、“the early 2000s”、“Later”以及各代技术的标志性功能,共同勾勒出其历史发展 (historical development) 脉络。段落并未侧重于其广泛应用、巨大益处或某 一代的具体功能。 33.A.细节理解题。根据第五段第二句 “Wearable health devices could provide continuous health monitoring, telling medical professionals about any signs in real- time.”可知,6G将通过实现实时健康监测(real-time health monitoring) 来影响 医学领域。其他选项如提高设备精确度、通过VR培训医生或改善医疗废物管 理系统,在文中均未提及。 34.B.推理判断题。第五段描述的6G应用,如远程手术(需要超低延迟和稳定 连接)、车辆与基础设施间的超高速通信、以及实时连接一切的智慧城市,所 有这些功能的实现都依赖于高速、可靠的数据传输。因此可以推断,所描述的 这些应用都需要高速数据传输(need high-speed data transmission) 。选项A过 于绝对,远程手术的成功并非只依赖于 6G;选项C与文中使用的将来时“will” 不符;选项D与第四段指出的6G核心“不仅仅是更快的网速”相悖。 35.C.主旨归纳题。全文以无线通信发展史作为引子,核心内容是展望 6G技术 的核心特点、潜在应用及其可能带来的社会变革。《迈向未来:6G的崛起》 (Into the Future: The Rise of 6G) 这个标题准确地抓住了文章面向未来、聚焦 6G 的核心思想。选项A只涵盖了历史部分,忽略了文章关于 6G的重点;选项B 使用的过去时“Changed”与文章展望未来的基调不符;选项 D在文中完全没有 涉及。 七选五 【导语】这是一篇说明文,文章主要阐述了肢体语言的作用以及如何正确利用 肢体语言有效交际。 36. D本题考查上下文逻辑关系。空白处前一句介绍了身体语言的定义和组成 部分,后文通过"例如"引出具体例子说明身体语言的作用。选项 D"它绝对是我 们日常沟通中的强大的工具"既承接了前文对身体语言的介绍,又为后文的具体 例子提供了总起,起到了承上启下的作用。 37. B本题考查上下文逻辑关系。前文指出身体语言的含义在不同文化中差异 很大,后文举例说明同一手势在不同文化中的不同理解。选项B"因此,了解这 些差异至关重要"中的"因此"明确表示因果关系,自然承接上文的文化差异问 题,并引出学习这些差异的必要性。 38. A本题考查上下文逻辑关系。前文讨论如何有效运用身体语言,列举了良 好姿势和身体前倾两个例子,后文提到"它表示尊重和兴趣"。选项A"在对话中 点头是另一个积极的信号"中的"another positive sign"与前文例子形成并列 关系,且后文的" it"可以自然指代"nodding"这一行为。 39. F本题考查上下文逻辑关系。前文强调理解他人身体语言有助于了解真实 感受,后文通过具体例子说明言语与身体语言可能不一致。选项F"它通常比言语更能告诉你某人的感受"准确概括了身体语言在揭示真实情感方面的优势,与 后文例子呼应。 40. C本题考查上下文逻辑关系。空白处后文具体阐述通过注意非语言线索避 免误会并促进更深层面的交流,选项C"掌握这一技能将使你成为更好的沟通 者"作为段落主题句,既总结了前文内容,又自然引出后文的具体益处,起到很 好的承上启下作用。 完形填空 【导语】这是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了Mia在一个寒冷的冬天帮助邻居铲雪, 从而引发了一系列善举,最终带动整个社区参与,展示了善良的涟漪效应。 41.C考查形容词词义辨析。句意:他的动作很笨拙,他经常停下来喘口气。选 项分析:A. gradual 逐渐的;B. gentle 温柔的;C. awkward 笨拙的;D. energetic 精力充沛的。根据上下文,Mr. Thompson在铲雪时动作不灵活,且 经常停顿,表明他行动困难,所以选择C。 42.B考查名词词义辨析。句意:Mia毫不犹豫地拿起铲子去帮忙。选项分析: A. complaint 抱怨;B. hesitation 犹豫;C. interaction 互动;D. doubt 怀疑。根据上下文,Mia立即行动,没有延迟,所以选择B。 43.B考查副词词义辨析。句意:“多好的女孩啊!”Mr. Thompson感激地说。 选项分析:A. critically 批判地;B. gratefully 感激地;C. sensitively 敏感地;D. cautiously 谨慎地。根据上下文,Mr. Thompson对Mia的帮助表 示感谢,所以选择B。 44.D考查动词短语辨析。句意:自从大多数年轻家庭搬走后,社区变得多么荒 凉。选项分析:A. settled down 定居;B. broke down 崩溃;C. broke up 分手;D. moved away 搬走。根据上下文,社区荒凉是因为居民离开,所以选 择D。 45.B考查动词词义辨析。句意:Mia意识到小小的善举能点亮某人的一天,甚 至可能点亮他们的生活。选项分析:A. ruin 破坏;B. brighten 点亮;C. interrupt 打断;D. waste 浪费。根据上下文,善举带来积极影响,所以选择 B。 46.C考查动词词义辨析。句意:Mia激励她的同学组织“Snow Angels”项目。 选项分析:A. forbade 禁止;B. challenged 挑战;C. inspired 激励;D. employed 雇佣。根据上下文,Mia鼓励同学参与,所以选择C。 47.C考查名词词义辨析。句意:令她惊讶的是,尽管期末考试临近,十二名志 愿者积极参与。选项分析:A. anger 愤怒;B. amusement 娱乐;C. surprise 惊讶;D. anxiety 焦虑。根据上下文,在考试期间还有多人参与,出乎意料, 所以选择C。 48.B考查动词词义辨析。句意:他们花了一天时间铲雪、送杂货,并与孤独的 老年人聊天。选项分析:A. arguing 争论;B. chatting 聊天;C. bargaining 讨价还价;D. competing 竞争。根据上下文,他们与老年人交流,提供陪伴,所以选择B。 49.A考查名词词义辨析。句意:看到居民脸上的快乐,听到笑声充满长久寂静 的房子。选项分析:A. joy 快乐;B. disappointment 失望;C. shock 震 惊;D. sadness 悲伤。根据上下文,居民因帮助而高兴,所以选择A。 50.A考查形容词词义辨析。句意:他们认为一切都是值得的。选项分析:A. worthwhile 值得的;B. predictable 可预测的;C. temporary 暂时的;D. embarrassing 尴尬的。根据上下文,志愿者们觉得付出有价值,所以选择A。 51.D考查动词词义辨析。句意:很快,其他学校的学生发起了类似的倡议。选 项分析:A. ignored 忽略;B. criticized 批评;C. overcame 克服;D. launched 发起。根据上下文,其他学生开始类似项目,所以选择D。 52.A考查动词词义辨析。句意:最初的一个简单行为发展成一场社区运动。选 项分析:A. developed 发展;B. integrated 整合;C. disappeared 消失; D. returned 返回。根据上下文,行为逐渐扩大,所以选择A。 53.D考查名词词义辨析。句意:当地报纸以“改变从你开始”为标题报道了 Mia 的故事。选项分析:A.

Her determination and hope have given hope and encouragement to people all around the world. Bethany Hamilton is from Hawaii. At the age of 13, as a rising star in the surfing world, Bethany’s left arm was bitten off by a 14-foot tiger shark, (19) which seemed to end her dream career. However, one month after the attack, Bethany returned to surfing and within two years she had won her first national surfing title. When she was 17 years old, she realized her dream of surfing professionally and she is still an active surfing competitor to this day. (19) Hamilton uses her experience to teach people to never give up. Bethany has been able to touch a large number of people with her story, along with her efforts and spirit. Her greatest joy is being a wife and mother, and Bethany continues to touch and inspire lives globally as a professional surfer, author and motivational speaker. She currently has her own blog and online course, along with a program, all centered on helping young women achieve their goals. (20) Helping people has been a wonderful experience for her.
