Treasure Hunt Through Modern-Day Ruins

Urban exploration of abandoned man-made structures became popular in the 1990s when modern society was fast forwarding into the next century. Left behind were relics of human civilization. Far away from modernization, rusted in air, tangled in weeds and vines, ruins tell forgotten tales and sometimes become history in and of themselves.

Punch Buggy Scrapyard

MOAB, UTAH

Vintage car lovers won’t want to miss this huge car disposal yard, the impressive open-air TomTom’s Volkswagen graveyard-a father-and-son cooperation begun in 1961 with eight cars. From buses to Beetles to Karmann Ghias to Squarebacks, hundreds of cars, car windows, doors and tires form a rainbow colored fleet contrasting with the dry yellow ground.

Game of Thrones’ End

KUPARI CROATIA

Six miles east of Dubrovnik, one of the main filming locations of the hit series Game of Thrones’ King’s Landing, is a bay of abandoned hotels that witnessed Croatia’s real power play. It was once a seaside resort for the military elite before the Yugoslav army destroyed it during the Croatian War in the 1990s. What exists today at the complex of former glory are overgrown weeds, graffiti and rusty remains.

Once Upon a Gold

ATHENS

Stadiums that once housed tears and sweat, cheers and boos during the 2004 Olympic games are now left for weeds. The beach volleyball arena, aquatics center and other venues were abandoned because of little local interest and lack of planning when the $15 billion grand building was being erected.

细节理解题。根据“Game of Thrones’ End KUPARI, CROATIA”部分中的“Six miles east of Dubrovnik, one of the main filming locations of the hit series Game of Thrones’ King’s Landing, is a bay of abandoned hotels that witnessed Croatia’s real power play.(热门剧集《权力的游戏》《君临城》的主要拍摄地之一杜布罗夫尼克以东六英里处，是一个由废弃酒店组成的海湾，这里见证了克罗地亚真正的权力游戏。)”可知，KUPARI是热门剧集《权力的游戏》《君临城》的主要拍摄地之一，由此电视剧迷们可能会喜欢这个地方。故选B。

【2题详解】

细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“The beach volleyball arena, aquatics center and other venues were abandoned because of little local interest and lack of planning when the $15 billion grand building was being erected.(沙滩排球场、水上运动中心和其他场馆在这座耗资150亿美元的宏伟建筑拔地而起时，由于当地人兴趣不大，而且缺乏规划，这些场馆都被废弃了。)”可知，这个曾经的奥林匹克体育馆因为缺乏规划而导致被废弃。故选D。

【3题详解】

细节理解题。根据最后一段“Nearly a century ago, Spanish sugarcane cutter José Paronella wanted to build a castle in the rainforest for his wife. The resulting wonderland-Paronella Park-with vines twining on stone pillars and moss peeping out from cracks has been open to the public since 1935. Its current owners are dedicated to “maintaining and preserving” the primitive beauty of this renowned carbon neutral tourist attraction with 7,500 flora and fauna (动植物).(近一个世纪前，西班牙甘蔗切割工José Paronella在雨林中为他的妻子建造一座城堡。由此产生的奇观——José Paronella公园——藤蔓缠绕在石柱上，苔藓从裂缝中探出，自1935年起向公众开放。它现在的主人致力于“维护和保护”这个著名的碳中性旅游景点的原始之美，这里有7500个动植物。)”可知，Paronella公园保留了其原始的自然之美。故选D。

B

I was a graduate student in Manhattan having breakfast on my rooftop on Sept. 11, 2001, when I witnessed planes hit the Twin Towers. For months afterwards, I shook with anxiety every morning. Unwilling to medicate, I tried everything else. Mindfulness meditation (冥想) caused panic attacks. Hot yoga built muscle but did nothing for my anxiety. I went to talks by Buddhist monks and meditation teachers hoping to attain inner peace, but in vain. Finally, I attended a SKY Breath Meditation class, which involves a 20-minute breathing regimen (养生之道) in different postures and rhythms. Though I went in skeptical,I came out calm. Two decades later,I never missed a day of my breathing practice, not even when I gave birth.

I’ve also devoted part of my research career to studying the benefits of breathing for mental health and well-being. Seven years after 9/11, I was working with veterans returning from war with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Traditional treatments had failed many of them, so my colleagues and I ran a randomized controlled trial to test the effects of SKY breathing. Compared with the control group, veterans practicing SKY every day for one week saw their anxiety drop to levels typical of the general population.

Even though most did not continue to practice, they maintained the benefits a year later.

Emotions influence your breathing patterns, and changing your breathing can change your emotions. For example, anxiety and anger correspond to an irregular, short, fast breath. Adopting the slower and more regular breathing pattern that corresponds to a calm feeling signals relaxation by activating the vagus nerve (交感神经), slowing heart rate, easing blood pressure, and settling you down. A simple exercise you can try is to close your eyes and breathe out for twice as long as you breathe in. Do this for five minutes in the morning, before a stressful meeting or as you transit from work to home.

4. Why did the author attend the SKY Breath Meditation class?

A. To build up muscles.

B. To relieve inner anxiety.

C. To learn more about meditation.

D. To quest for religious belief.

5. How did the author test the effects of SKY breathing?

A. She worked with healthy veterans returning from war.

B. She chose victims suffering PTSD in the 9/11 incident.

C. She divided the veterans into two groups and compared results.

D. She cooperated with researchers from mindfulness meditation classes.

6. What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A. Breathing interacts with emotions.

B. It is harmful to activate the vagus nerve.

C. Breathing out as long as you breathe in is a simple way to follow.

D. Breathing regimen should be carried out for five minutes every morning.

7. Which of the following is the best title for the text?

A. PTSD: more awareness needed

B. SKY: better well-being attained

C. Meditation: an effective treatment

D. Breath: detailed ways to conduct

【答案】4. B    5. C    6. A    7. B

【解析】

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了作者在亲眼目睹911事件后，患上了创伤后应激障碍，后来通过SKY疗法得到了治愈。

【4题详解】

推理判断题。根据文章第一段“For months afterwards, I shook with anxiety every morning.  Unwilling to medicate, I tried everything else. Mindfulness meditation (冥想) caused panic attacks.  Hot yoga built muscle but did nothing for my anxiety. I went to talks by Buddhist monks and meditation teachers hoping to attain inner peace, but in vain. Finally, I attended a SKY Breath Meditation class, which involves a 20-minute breathing regimen (养生之道) in different postures and rhythms.(在那之后的几个月里，我每天早上都焦虑得发抖。我不愿意吃药，于是尝试了所有其他方法。正念冥想会引起恐慌。高温瑜伽可以锻炼肌肉，但对我的焦虑没有任何帮助。我去听了佛教僧侣和冥想老师的讲座，希望获得内心的平静，但徒劳无功。最后，我参加了一个SKY呼吸冥想课程，包括20分钟的不同姿势和节奏的呼吸养生之道)”可知，作者参加SKY是为了缓解自己的焦虑。故选B。

【5题详解】

推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Traditional treatments had failed many of them, so my colleagues and I ran a randomized controlled trial to test the effects of SKY breathing.  Compared with the control group, veterans practicing SKY every day for one week saw their anxiety drop to levels typical of the general population.(传统的治疗方法失败了很多，所以我和我的同事进行了一个随机对照试验来测试SKY呼吸的效果。与对照组相比，在一周内每天练习SKY的退伍军人的焦虑水平下降到一般人群的典型水平)”可推知，作者将退伍军人分成两组，其中一组每天练习SKY，最后比对结果从而得出结论。故选C。

【6题详解】

细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Emotions influence your breathing patterns, and changing your breathing can change your emotions.(情绪会影响你的呼吸模式，改变呼吸也会改变你的情绪)”可知，情绪和呼吸息息相关，互相影响。故选A。

【7题详解】

主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Finally, I attended a SKY Breath Meditation class, which involves a 20-minute breathing regimen (养生之道) in different postures and rhythms. Though I went in skeptical, I came out calm. Two decades later, I never missed a day of my breathing practice, not even when I gave birth.(最后，我参加了一个SKY呼吸冥想课程，包括20分钟的不同姿势和节奏的呼吸养生之道。虽然我满怀怀疑地进去了，但出来时却很平静。二十年后，我从未错过一天的呼吸练习，甚至在我生孩子的时候。)”以及第二段“Traditional treatments had failed many of them, so my colleagues and I ran a randomized controlled trial to test the effects of SKY breathing.  Compared with the control group, veterans practicing SKY every day for one week saw their anxiety drop to levels typical of the general population.(传统的治疗方法失败了很多，所以我和我的同事进行了一个随机对照试验来测试SKY呼吸的效果。与对照组相比，在一周内每天练习SKY的退伍军人的焦虑水平下降到一般人群的典型水平)”可知，文章主要讲述了SKY疗法可以使人不那么焦虑，获得幸福。故选B。

C

Lizards that once resided in forests but now hang around urban areas of Puerto Rico have genetically morphed (变化) to survive life in the city, researchers have found.

The Puerto Rican crested anole, a brown lizard with a bright orange throat fan, has sprouted special scales (鳞片) to better cling to smooth surfaces such as walls and windows, scientists say. “We are watching evolution as it’s unfolding,” said Kristin Winchel, a biology professor. As urbanization intensifies around the world, it’s important to understand how organisms adapt and humans can design cities in ways that support all species, Winchell said.

The study analyzed 96 Anolis lizards, comparing the genetic makeup of forest-dwellers to those living in Puerto Rico’s capital. Scientists found that 33 genes within the lizard genome were repeatedly associated with urbanization.

“You can hardly get closer to a smoking gun” said Wouter Halfwerk, an evolutionary ecologist who was not involved in the study. He said he was impressed that the scientists were able to detect such a clear genomic signature of adaptation: “The ultimate goal within the field of urban adaptive evolution is to find evidence for heritable traits and their genomic architecture.”

The changes in these lizards, whose life spans are roughly seven years, can occur quickly, within 30 to 80 generations, enabling them to escape from predators and survive in urban areas, Winchell added. The larger limbs, for example, enable them to run more quickly across a hot parking lot, and the special scales to hold onto surfaces far more smooth than trees.

The study focused on adult male lizards, so it’s unclear whether females are changing in the same way or at the same rate as males, and at which point in a lizard’s life the changes are occurring. Halfwerk, whose own research showed how one frog species changed its mating call in urban areas, said scientists should look next for possible constraints (限制) on the evolutionary response and how morphology relates to mating behavior.

8. What do researchers find about lizards in the study?

A. Lizards evolve to adapt to the human cities.

B. Lizards are not capable of surviving in the urban areas.

C. Lizards have a negative impact on smooth surfaces of modern buildings.

D. Lizards no longer have natural habitat in forests as a result of urbanization

9. How did the researchers conduct the study?

A. By analyzing previous research data.

B. By comparing different lizard species.

C. By citing the famous scientists’ words.

D. By studying Anolis lizards in urban and natural areas.

10. What was Wouter Halfwerk’s attitude towards the study?

A. Favorable. B. Tolerant. C. Indifferent. D. Doubtful.

11. What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A. All frog species have changed its mating call in urban areas.

B. Only adult male lizards evolve to have larger limbs and special scales.

C. Halfwerk will continue to study how morphology relates to mating behavior

D. The future study might focus on the limitations on the evolutionary response.

【答案】8. A    9. D    10. A    11. D

【解析】

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了一项研究结果：研究发现，曾经栖息在森林中的蜥蜴已经发生了基因变异，使其适应在城市中生存。

【8题详解】

细节理解题。根据第一段“Lizards that once resided in forests but now hang around urban areas of Puerto Rico have genetically morphed (变化) to survive life in the city, researchers have found.”（研究人员发现，曾经栖息在森林中但现在在波多黎各城市地区徘徊的蜥蜴已经发生了基因变异，可以在城市中生存。）可知，研究人员发现，曾经栖息在森林中的蜥蜴已经发生了基因变异，使其适应在城市中生存。故选A。

【9题详解】

细节理解题。根据第三段“The study analyzed 96 Anolis lizards, comparing the genetic makeup of forest-dwellers to those living in Puerto Rico’s capital. Scientists found that 33 genes within the lizard genome were repeatedly associated with urbanization.”（这项研究分析了96只阿诺利斯蜥蜴，比较了森林居民和波多黎各首都居民的基因组成。科学家发现，蜥蜴基因组中的33个基因与城市化反复有关。)可知，研究人员通过分析生活在城市和森林里的阿诺利斯蜥蜴，发现蜥蜴的基因变化和城市化反复有关。故选D。

【10题详解】

推理判断题。根据第四段中“He said he was impressed that the scientists were able to detect such a clear genomic signature of adaptation: “The ultimate goal within the field of urban adaptive evolution is to find evidence for heritable traits and their genomic architecture.””（他说，科学家能够发现如此清晰的适应性基因组特征给他留下了深刻的印象： “城市适应性进化领域的最终目标是找到遗传特征及其基因组结构的证据。”）可知，对于此次研究结果，Wouter Halfwerk认为这个研究可以为城市适应性进化领域找到遗传特征及其基因组结构的证据。因而他对此是赞同的，认可的。故选A。

【11题详解】

推理判断题。根据最后一段“The study focused on adult male lizards, so it’s unclear whether females are changing in the same way or at the same rate as males, and at which point in a lizard’s life the changes are occurring. Halfwerk, whose own research showed how one frog species changed its mating call in urban areas, said scientists should look next for possible constraints (限制) on the evolutionary response and how morphology relates to mating behavior.”（这项研究主要集中在成年雄性蜥蜴身上，因此目前还不清楚雌性蜥蜴的变化方式是否与雄性蜥蜴相同，以及在蜥蜴一生中的哪个阶段发生了变化。Halfwerk 自己的研究显示了一种青蛙是如何改变它在城市地区的交配叫声的，他说科学家接下来应该寻找进化反应的可能限制因素，以及形态学如何与交配行为相关联。）可知，对于科学家们而言，接下来的研究应该是进化中的可能限制因素。故选D。

D

Given how valuable intelligence and automation are, we will continue to improve our technology if we are at all able to. At a certain point, we will build machines that are smarter than we are. Once we have machines that are smarter than we are, they will begin to improve themselves. The concern is really that we will build machines that are much more competent than we are. And the slightest divergence (分歧) between their goals and our own could destroy us.

Just think about how we relate to ants. We don’t hate them. We don’t go out of our way to harm them. In fact, sometimes we take pains not to harm them. We step over them on the sidewalk. But whenever their presence seriously conflicts with one of our goals, we will kill them without hesitation. The concern is that we will one day build machines that, whether they’re conscious or not, could treat us with similar disregard.

The bare fact is that we will continue to improve our intelligent machines. We have problems that we desperately need to solve. So we will do this, if we can. The train is already out of the station, and there’s no brake to pull. If we build machines that are more intelligent than we are, they will very likely develop in ways that we can’t imagine, and transcend us in ways that we can’t imagine.

So imagine we hit upon a design of super intelligent AI that has no safety concerns. This machine would be the perfect labor-saving device. It can design the machine that can build the machine which can do any physical work, powered by sunlight, more or less for the cost of raw materials. So we’re talking bout the end of human labour. We’re also talking about the end of most intellectual work. So what would apes like ourselves do in these circumstances?

But the moment we admit that information processing is the source of intelligence, we have to admit that we are in the process of building some sort of god. Now would be a good time to make sure it’s a god we can live with.

12. Why does the author mention ants in Paragraph 2?

A. To compare intelligent machines to ants.

B. To show improved machines will get away from us.

C. To stress the presence of machines does conflict with our goals.

D. To explain future intelligent machines could treat us without mercy

13. What does the underlined word “transcend” in Paragraph 3 mean?

A. Disable. B. Inspire. C. Disappoint. D. Outpace.

14 How is the passage mainly developed?

A. By making comparisons.

B. By giving assumptions.

C. By showing valid evidence.

D. By analyzing statistics

15. Which of the following statements can best summarize the author’s viewpoint towards Al?

A. Human beings will no doubt be destroyed by AI in the future

B. Super intelligent AI will put an end to human labour eventually.

C. We should keep the development of AI within humans’ control.

D. Human beings should stop the development of super intelligent AL.

【答案】12. D    13. D    14. B    15. C

【解析】

【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章通过假设说明，对于未来的智能机器，我们人类应该把人工智能的发展控制在人类的控制之内。

【12题详解】

推理判断题。根据第二段中“We don’t hate them. We don’t go out of our way to harm them. In fact, sometimes we take pains not to harm them. We step over them on the sidewalk. But whenever their presence seriously conflicts with one of our goals, we will kill them without hesitation. The concern is that we will one day build machines that, whether they’re conscious or not, could treat us with similar disregard.”（我们不恨它们。我们不会特意去伤害它们。事实上，有时候我们尽量不伤害它们。我们在人行道上跨过它们。但只要它们的存在与我们的目标严重冲突，我们就会毫不犹豫地杀死它们。我们担心有一天我们会制造出机器，无论它们是否有意识，它们都可以同样漠视我们）可知，此处提到平时我们对待蚂蚁时尽量不伤害它们，而当蚂蚁的存在和我们的目标冲突时，我们会好不犹豫地杀死它们。拿此事例类比我们未来制造的智能机器，可以证明机器对待我们时也会一样的残忍。故选D。

【13题详解】

词句猜测题。根据划线词前半部分“If we build machines that are more intelligent than we are, they will very likely develop in ways that we can’t imagine”（如果我们制造出比我们更聪明的机器，它们很可能以我们无法想象的方式发展）可知，当机器人比我们更聪明时，它们的一些方式可能是我们无法想象，甚至在某些方面会超出我们的想象，所以划线词此处指“超越”，A项“使失去能力”；B项“启发，鼓舞”；C项“使失望”；D项“超越”，故选D。

【14题详解】

推理判断题。根据第二段中“The concern is that we will one day build machines that, whether they’re conscious or not, could treat us with similar disregard.”（我们担心有一天我们会制造出机器，无论它们是否有意识，它们都可以同样漠视我们）第三段中“If we build machines that are more intelligent than we are, they will very likely develop in ways that we can’t imagine”（如果我们制造出比我们更聪明的机器，它们很可能以我们无法想象的方式发展）第四段中“So imagine we hit upon a design of super intelligent AI that has no safety concerns.”（所以想象一下，我们偶然发现了一个超级智能人工智能的设计，它没有任何安全隐患）可知，文章主要是通过假设来论证文章的主题。故选B。

【15题详解】

推理判断题。根据第一段“Given how valuable intelligence and automation are, we will continue to improve our technology if we are at all able to. At a certain point, we will build machines that are smarter than we are. Once we have machines that are smarter than we are, they will begin to improve themselves. The concern is really that we will build machines that are much more competent than we are. And the slightest divergence (分歧) between their goals and our own could destroy us.”（考虑到智能和自动化的价值，我们将继续改进我们的技术，如果我们有能力的话。在某种程度上，我们会建造比我们更聪明的机器。一旦我们有了比我们更聪明的机器，它们就会开始自我改进。真正令人担忧的是，我们将制造出比我们更有竞争力的机器。他们的目标和我们的目标稍有不同就会毁了我们）可知，当机器比我们人类更智能时，它们就会开始自我改进，制造出比我们更有竞争力的机器。当他们的目标和我们的目标稍有不同就会毁了我们。最后一段“But the moment we admit that information processing is the source of intelligence, we have to admit that we are in the process of building some sort of god. Now would be a good time to make sure it’s a god we can live with.”（ 但是，一旦我们承认信息处理是智慧的源泉，我们就必须承认，我们正在建造某种上帝。现在是个好时机，我们要确保这是一个我们可以与之共存的神）可知，我们人类应该要确保智能机器与我们人类共存，即我们人类要让智能机器置于我们的控制之内。故选C。

Here are things you may find helpful the next time your are indulged in regrets.

___19___ This suggests that regret is like a ghost: not entirely clear but always frightening. Bring your ghost out of the shadows by making a list of your regrets. Write down why each one still bothers you and its lingering bad effects. You will find that a list is a lot less dreadful than a ghost.

After you make a mistake, life moves on. But sometimes you just can’t stop kicking yourself. Perhaps you dropped out of school decades ago and are constantly calculating today how much money you would be making, had you pressed on to graduation. ___20___

【解析】

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了国家级非物质文化遗产：灶头画。

【36题详解】

考查名词复数。句意：杨飞跃报道说，装饰性的炉灶艺术品吸引了越来越多的崇拜者，他们喜欢这些艺术品唤起的回忆。短语：a number of+名词复数，表示“许多……“，所以此处用名词复数。admire“羡慕”为动词，admirer“崇拜者，仰慕者”，为可数名词，故填admirers。

【37题详解】

考查时态和语态。句意：2011年嘉兴独特的艺术形式被列为国家级非物质文化遗产。分析句子可知，空处在句中为谓语，结合句中“in 2011”可知，此处的时态为一般过去时；句子主语“The distinctive art form”为单数含义，和动词“list”为动宾关系，所以语态用被动语态，故填was listed。

【38题详解】

考查非谓语。句意：今年2月初，嘉兴一个村庄的春节联欢晚会上，一个带有丰富生动图像的旧木炉子占据了舞台中央。分析句子可知，本句的谓语动词为took，所以空处为非谓语。句子主语“stove”与动词“bear”为主谓关系，所以此处用现在分词bearing，故填bearing。

【39题详解】

考查定于从句。句意：这些图像以历史人物和传奇人物、童话故事、动物和花卉为主题，所有这些都被描绘成鲜艳的色彩，并以一种吸引观众注意力的方式。分析句子可知，“ all of ______ are depicted in bright colors and have a way of claiming attention from viewers.”为非限制性定语从句，空处指代整个主句，在从句中作主语，结合空前介词of，所以此处用关系代词which，故填which。

【40题详解】

考查不定式。句意：曾经有一个以花卉人物为主题的灶头农舍很普遍，尤其是长江下游地区的农舍。分析句子可知，本句使用了it作形式主语的句式：It was common for sb./sth. to do sth.，“for farmhouses ______(have) a zaotou”为真正的主语，所以空处用不定式to have，故填to have。

【41题详解】

考查事件状语从句的连词。句意：在煤气炉或微波炉出现之前，当地人在里面烧柴火和稻草来做饭。分析句子可知，“______ gas burners or microwave ovens were available”为状语从句，根据句意可知，当地人烧柴火和稻草来做饭应该是在煤气炉或微波炉出现之前，故填before。

【42题详解】

考查冠词。句意：来自海盐市通源镇的赵（先生）说：“历史证据表明，这门艺术至少有300年的历史。”短语：have a history of“有着……的历史”，故填a。

【43题详解】

考查介词。句意：从事灶头画的人大多是农村地区的泥瓦匠，他们经常受雇于村民，在新家里建造泥炉。短语：engage in“从事……”，故填in。

【44题详解】

考查形容词性物主代词。句意同上。修饰名词用形容词，结合空后名词home，所以此处用形容词性物主代词their，故填their。

【45题详解】

考查形容词。句意：“但是不管用什么材料，炉灶画总是具有象征意义，并且对主人怀有美好的祝愿。”赵说。空处在句中作表语，所以此处用形容词symbolic，故填symbolic。

    Hearing that you are interested in the Charity Sale held by the Student Union of our school last weekends, I’m writing to get you informed about it.

    The Charity Sale, with the aim of giving love to children in poor mountainous areas, was a huge success. We prepared mangy things which we made by hand in our spare time, such as kites, model planes and so on, which looked very beautiful and attracted a lot of attentions. Many students and teachers came to take part in it. It went well, and the results were worth the effort. We made over 2000 yuan in the end. We used the money to buy some learning and sports goods, and then mailed them to children in need.

I had a wonderful experience. I’m proud of what we have done. If everyone makes a contribution to the charity, the world will be much better.

47. 阅读下面材料，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

The Christmas holidays were fast approaching, and we had ordered many gifts online. So, when the doorbell rang, I was sure some of the packages had arrived. I ran to the door and swung it open, but no one was there. I sensed something and looked down, only to find a beautiful calico kitten (杂色猫) sitting there, looking up at me with big, intelligent eyes. There was no way that she could have rung the doorbell by herself, was there?

We figured that someone had found the kitten somewhere and left her there, and then rang the doorbell and ran away. They accurately guessed we would welcome an additional family member and take care of her.

My husband called her our little angel, so we named her accordingly. She had a calm aura (气质) about her as she walked straight into our home and hearts, fitting in perfectly. It seemed as if she was always meant to be in this big house with us. She was an old soul and turned out to be the perfect companion. Always by my side, she was more like a puppy than a kitten. Wise beyond her years, she enjoyed wandering through the tunnels and mysterious rooms as much as I did, but with much less fear. Angelica the calico was courageous.

So, I took a page from her book and decided to be brave, too. There was an underground stone cellar (地窖) I had been eager to explore. The only way in was down a rickety (摇晃的) ladder to its murky depths. I guessed it was an old root cellar, probably twelve feet deep.

I had promised my husband that I wouldn’t explore dangerous areas unless he or someone else was around. Though I knew I was stretching it, I figured that Angelica would count as my companion. I was ready to explore this cellar, and so was she.

I equipped myself with a good flashlight and warm clothes, and carefully started down the rickety ladder while Angelica was looking down at me from above. Faint crack and sudden crash were what I could remember.

注意：

1.续写词数应为150左右;

2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。

Paragraph 1

I woke up with pieces of the rotting, broken ladder lying around me on the stone cellar floor.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Paragraph 2

It seemed my companion, Angelica, was my last hope.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

【答案】I woke up with pieces of the rotting, broken ladder lying around me on the stone cellar floor. My flashlight was broken, as were my eyeglasses and my phone. I turned on the phone and it lit up! Sadly, however, no signal. If only I could get the still-functioning phone up through the door, it might connect to the Internet, so I could shout at Siri from down below for help. In the daylight, I could make out Angel was mewing at me from above.

It seemed my companion, Angelica, was my last hope. She kept her eye on me. Waving the phone, I instructed “Angel! catch it!” With a deep breath and a silent prayer, I cast the phone upward. Miraculously, Angel managed to catch it with her paws as it shot through the door and lay it right by the entrance. Once it connected to the Internet, I yelled at Siri to call emergency services. With them on the line, I screamed out my situation. When heavy footsteps came near, I knew I was saved. I no longer wonder if it was Angel who rang the doorbell that day.

【解析】

【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。讲述了作者搬进新家后的一天迎来了一只小猫的到访。作者和丈夫都非常喜欢这只猫，并给她起名为Angel。作者一直渴望探索新家下面的地窖，于是趁丈夫出差之际，和Angel开始了她们的探索。不料作者从梯子上摔下，最终在Angel的帮助下，手机成功联网，最终获救的故事。

【详解】1.段落续写：

①由第一段首句内容“我醒来时发现地下室的石头地板上到处都是腐烂的梯子碎片。”可知，第一段可描写作者醒来后如何自救。

②由第二段首句内容“看来我的同伴Angelica是我最后的希望。”可知，第二段可描写Angel如何帮助作者获救。
