（一）（2025·扬州）〔核心素养—思维品质〕
It was a summer. After a 33 - kilometre bike ride, my cousin Gabriel and I were _1_. We planned to get lunch and then _2_ back to Valence, where I was spending my holiday with Gabriel's family.
We bought a baguette. As we ate, I noticed a girl in a queue smiling at us.
I met her again when she sat on a bench, enjoying her bread in front of a riverboat named “Voyageur”. Soon she boarded the boat. Then I noticed a colourful handbag on the _3_. The girl had left it!
She was on the upper deck(甲板)! I held up the bag and _4_ it to get her attention. When she noticed the bag, she opened her mouth _5_. But her face fell—the boat started to pull away from the dock(码头).
“We can _6_ it! The boat's next stop is Valence!” Gabriel came up.
“Great! But do you think we can _7_?” I asked.
Gabriel laughed. “We're going to find out!”
We set off. It was a race now: _8_ against the boat. If the boat beat us to Valence, we might _9_ have the chance to give back the bag.
Pedaling hard, we quickly caught up to the Voyageur. When the boat disappeared _10_ us, we felt confident enough to relax our pace.
Then it happened: pffft! A flat tire(轮胎漏气)! My heart sank.
We had to stop and took out tools when the Voyageur was coming near. I saw the girl again. She noticed our _11_ and shook her head sadly.
After quick _12_, we were back on our way. The boat pulled ahead. We watched _13_ as the boat disappeared around a bend.
Finally we arrived, _14_ the Voyageur had docked. We failed!
Gabriel suddenly shouted, “I see her!”
The girl was strolling towards us! “You followed my boat!” she smiled.
“No, your boat followed us,” I _15_. “Until I got a flat tire, that is.” I handed her the bag.

完形填空
完形填空所选短文一般无标题，第一句话往往是引领全文的主题句，是了解文章全貌的“窗口”。做题可遵循以下两个步骤：
1.迅速浏览全篇，捕捉文章的中心，能够确定的答案可直接写上；不确定的答案，再仔细阅读一遍全文，根据上下文解决；
2.选好答案后，要结合所选答案将全文逐句阅读一遍，从语法、用词等方面检查所选答案是否正确，是否与全文的意思相悖、不合理或句意前后矛盾。
