　　【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。Salomon女士在塞恩斯伯里超市工作一年时被诊断出阿尔兹海默症。超市不仅没有解雇Salomon女士,反而一直支持帮助她,展示了人性、善良和关爱。

1.D　句意:在那之前,她曾被迫辞去会计员的工作,因为她变得越来越没有条理。结合语境及“because she was becoming increasingly 　2　”可知,被诊断为阿尔兹海默症后应是“被迫”辞去工作。

2.A　disorganized无条理的;worried担心的;bad-tempered脾气不好的;ill-mannered无礼的。结合语境可知,得了阿尔兹海默症后应是做事没有条理。

3.C　句意:然而,在得知她的诊断结果后,塞恩斯伯里超市的员工们开始竭尽所能,确保Salomon女士感到舒适,能够与人交流。根据后面的“the Sainsbury’s staffers started doing all they could to make sure that Ms. Salomon felt comfortable”可知,塞恩斯伯里超市的员工们得知Salomon女士患病后的做法与上文被辞退相反,故此处表示转折。

4.D　appreciated赏识的,感激的;interested感兴趣的;amazed惊奇的;connected有联系的,相关的。根据下一句“For the next four years, Sainsbury’s did everything to keep Ms. Salomon on the team.”可知,此处指让Salomon女士感到舒适,能够和人交流。

5.B　结合语境可知,Salomon女士在塞恩斯伯里超市工作,所以此处指超市改变了她的工作时间。

6.B　句意:他们与她的家人保持联系,以便提供她工作上的最新情况。harmony和谐;contact联系;agreement同意,一致;cooperation合作。结合“so they could provide 　7　 on her condition at work”可知,此处指超市与她的家人保持联系,以便提供她的最新情况。

7.D　opinions观点;suggestions建议;instructions指令,说明;updates更新,最新消息。结合语境可知,此处指提供她的最新情况。

8.C　结合语境可知,Salomon女士得了阿尔兹海默症,超市应是“定期”给她反复培训。

9.B　句意:当疾病恶化时,塞恩斯伯里超市甚至为她创造了一份全新的工作——“手提袋清洁工”。结合“When the disease progressed”可知,Salomon女士病情恶化,应是无法再胜任工作,所以超市善意地给她创造了一份“全新的”工作。

10.A　句意:2017年,Salomon女士收到了一份医学评估报告,称她的阿尔茨海默症已经发展到晚期,她被宣布没有工作能力了。assessment评估;program计划,项目;paper纸张;certificate证书。结合后面的“her Alzheimer’s had progressed to the advanced stage”可知,应是对病情进行评估,才知道她的病情发展到了晚期。

11.C　结合语境及“her Alzheimer’s had progressed to the advanced stage”可知,她病情到了晚期,被宣布没有工作能力了。

12.C　结合上文“she was 　11　 unemployable”可知,此处指她的职业生涯结束了。

13.D　句意:六个月后,Salomon女士的职业生涯最终结束了,虽然这是一次情感上的离开,但她也松了一口气。结合上一句中“came to an end”可知,此处指精神上的“离开”。

14.A　结合上文内容可知,Salomon女士得了阿尔兹海默症,超市本可以早就让她走。

15.B　句意:相反,他们一直帮助她,竭尽全力确保她开心,并让她感到自己受到重视。结合上文超市员工的做法及空后“make sure she’s happy and feeling valued”可知,他们总是帮助她。

Ⅱ.语法填空

About twenty of us were fortunate enough to receive invitations to a film-studio to take part in a crowd-scene.1.　　　　 our “act” would last only for a short time, we could see quite a number of interesting things.

We all stood at the far end of the studio as 2.　　　　(workman) prepared the scene,3.　　　　(set) up trees at the edge of a winding path. Very soon, bright lights were turned on and the big movie-camera was wheeled into position. The director shouted something to the camera 4.　　　　(operate) and then went to speak to the two famous actors nearby.5.　　　　 it was hot in the studio, it came as a surprise to us to see one of the actors put on a heavy overcoat and start walking along the path. A big fan began blowing tiny white feathers down on him, and soon the trees were covered in “snow”. Two more fans were turned on, and a “strong wind”6.　　　　(blow) through the trees. The picture looked so real that it made us feel cold.

The next scene was a complete contrast. The way it was filmed was quite 7.　　　　(usual). Pictures taken on 8.　　　　 island in the Pacific were shown on a glass screen. An actor and actress stood off the scene so that they looked as if they were at the water’s edge on an island.9.　　　　 a simple trick like this, palm trees, sandy beaches, and blue, clear skies had been brought into the studio!

Since it was our turn next, we were left wondering what scene would be prepared for us. For a full three minutes in our lives,10.　　　　 would be experiencing the excitement of being film “stars”!

　　【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了作者参加了一次电影摄制的群演的经历。

1.Although/Though　考查状语从句。句意:尽管我们的“表演”只持续了很短的时间,但是我们可以看到很多有趣的事情。分析和理解句子可知,此处引导让步状语从句要连词although/though,因为置于句首,首字母大写。故填Although/Though。

2.workmen　考查名词复数。workman为可数名词,结合句中的“prepared the scene”可知,此处指很多工人。故填workmen。

3.setting　考查非谓语动词。分析可知,“　3　(set) up trees at the edge of a winding path”在句中为状语,句子主语workmen与set为主谓关系,因句中已有谓语prepared,所以此处要用动词的-ing形式setting。

4.operator　考查名词。根据后文“then went to speak to the two famous actors nearby”可知,此处指导演对着摄影师喊。operator意为“操作员”。

5.Since/As/Because　考查连词。句意:因为摄影棚里很热,所以当我们看到其中一个演员穿上厚大衣,沿着小路走时,我们感到很惊讶。结合句意可知,空格处指的是原因,故填Since/As/Because。

6.blew　考查时态。空格处在句中作谓语,结合句中“Two more fans were turned on”可知,此处也要用一般过去时。故填blew。

7.unusual　考查形容词。由前文的“a complete contrast(截然不同)”可知,此处指拍摄的方式很不寻常。故填unusual。

8.an　考查冠词。island(岛屿)为可数名词,因第一个音素为元音音素,且此处为泛指。故填an。

9.By/Through　考查介词。句意:通过这样一个简单的把戏,棕榈树、沙滩、和蓝色晴朗的天空被带进了演播室!根据下文“…palm trees, sandy beaches, and blue, clear skies had been brought into the studio”可知,此处指“通过这样的方式”。故填By/Through。

10.we　考查人称代词。根据“For a full three minutes in our lives…”可知,此处指作者他们将会体验成为电影明星的兴奋。空格处作句子的主语,结合前文的“our”可知此处填人称代词we。

Dear Madam,

Yours,

Li Hua

【答案】

Dear Madam,

I am quite sorry to bother you with such a personal request as making a new room arrangement for me, which is my last choice after days’ of deliberation.

First of all, my roommate appears to be such a social-addict that every now and then, her friends are channeled to our dormitory, which impairs my engagement with work and study. Especially disturbing is that we have a widely divergent timetable, and she is a regular night owl. It inevitably eats into my sufficient rest, and then the efficiency and efficacy the next day.

Please take my request into consideration and thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Yours,

Li Hua

(二)读后续写

(湖南省湖湘教育三新探索协作体2023年11月期中联考)My father is a hard-working and friendly man. He taught me to drive, play baseball and fish when I was young. However, one other thing my dad’s good at was holding a grudge(怨恨). For most of my teen years, he didn’t speak to his younger brother, although they were at many family events together.

I was never sure why my dad was so angry with my uncle in the first place. They spent many festivals seated at opposite ends of the table. It was simply something that we all accepted at the time.

When I was nineteen, I got a call in my college dorm that my dad was having serious medical problems. My mom picked me up in the middle of the night so we could be there in time. However, my dad was arranged to transfer to a better hospital the next day. I couldn’t fall asleep. I tossed and turned.

That morning, as my mom and I walked down the hallway of the hospital, we could see straight into my dad’s room. A tall man wearing a stylish suit stood over my father’s bed with his back to us. Casually, my mom remarked how nice it was for the doctor to come by to see my dad so early in the morning.

But through my misty eyes, something about the scene surprised me. The man with his back to us was standing very quietly. He was holding both of my dad’s hands. It was definitely not a typical doctor’s behavior. I stopped at the door of the room.

注意:

1.续写词数应为150左右;

2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。

I whispered softly to my mom,“That’s not a doctor.”

The other miracle was my father’s new relationship with his younger brother.

【答案】

I whispered softly to my mom,“That’s not a doctor.” My mother stepped forward, only to find that he was the last person we could imagine to have appeared. It was my uncle who had been caring for my father. I was about to open the door when my mother stopped me, leaving the two brothers alone longer. It must have worked some kind of magic, and my father soon recovered. All the doctors said it was nothing but a miracle.

The other miracle was my father’s new relationship with his younger brother. They might still sit at the opposite sides, but the awkward silence was replaced by various jokes and stories. Later, they frequently went fishing and hiking together. I thought that what my uncle did during my father’s illness warmed my father’s heart and got the response it deserved. Now I realize that if you want to be forgiven by others, you should show your kindness first. No one will refuse the good will offered by others, especially when in trouble.
