,eveninsmallmatters”引出下文“社区公园”的日常案例，衔接自然。故选A项。【19题详析】由上文“Buttheparkismorethanjustgreenspace.Itprovidesaplaceforchildrentoplay,fortheelderlytoexercise,andforneighborstocommunicate.(但公园绝不仅仅是一片绿地。它为孩子们提供了玩耍的场所，为老人们提供了锻炼的空间，也为邻里之间提供了交流的平台。)”可知，空格处需说明“投入公园的资金带来的具体价值。F项“Everydollarspentonitstrengthenstheconnectionbetweenpeopleandimprovesthequalityofcommunitylife.(投入其中的每一分钱都在加强人与人之间的联系，提升社区生活质量。)”符合语境，it指代“communitypark”，“strengthenstheconnectionbetweenpeopleandimprovesthequalityofcommunitylife”承接前文公园的功能，解释“资金投入公园”的价值，与下文“investmentinpublicwell-being”呼应。故选F项。【20题详析】由上文“Somepeoplechaseafterluxurygoods,believingthatowningthemshowssuccess.(有些人追求奢侈品，认为拥有它们就是成功。)”和下文“Whetherit’sascientistdevotingfundstoresearchoranordinarypersondonatingtoacommunityproject,thekeyistoletmoneyserveapurposebeyondimmediatesatisfaction.Inthisway,moneytrulyrealizesitsgreatestvalue.(无论是科学家将资金投入研究，还是普通人向社区项目捐款，关键在于让金钱服务于超越即时满足感的目标。唯有如此，金钱才能真正实现其最大价值。)”可知，空格处需通过对比“追求奢侈品”与“追求持久影响”的行为，引出下文的正面案例。G项“Others,though,choosetospendmoneyonthingsthathavelastingimpacts,likeeducation,charity,orpersonalgrowth.(然而，另一些人选择将钱花在有持久影响的事情上，比如教育、慈善或个人成长。)”符合语境，“Others”与“Somepeople”形成对比，“thingsthathavelastingimpacts”呼应下文“devotingfundstoresearch”和“donatingtoacommunityproject”，衔接紧密。故选G项。第三部分语言知识运用(满分30分)第一节完形填空(共15小题;每题1分，满分15分)阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Inaheartwarmingreunion,PatrickMoriarty,aretiredscienceteacherfromNewYork,fulfilledapromisehemadetohisstudentsdecadesagobywatchingthe2024solareclipse(日食)together.Backin1978,whileteachinghis“EarthScience”class,Moriarty____21____worksheetsdetailingthetrajectories(轨迹)ofupcomingeclipses.Highlightingtheone____22____topassneartheirhometown,Moriartydeclaredtohisstudents,“____23____thatoneonApril8,2024.We’regoingtogettogetheronthatday.”Hisstudentslaughedatthethought,findingit____24____tounderstandsuchadistantfutureevent.Nevertheless,Moriartypersisted,remindingallofhisstudentsto____25____theircalendarsforthegathering.Twoyearsago,Moriarty,____26____aFacebookeventandreachedouttohisformerstudents.Tohissurprise,hundredsrespondedwith____27____,expressinginterestinjoiningthe____28____.AsApril8,2024approached,about100ofMoriarty’sformerstudents____29____athishome.Emotionsranhighas______30______facesfromtheirjuniorhighdaysreconnected.Moriartysaid,“Whentheywerewalkingup,Icould______31______seetheirlittleninthgradefaces.”FormerstudentKevinThompson______32______Moriarty’scommitment,describingthepromiseas“the______33______homeworkassignmentinthehistoryofanyteacher.”Asthespectacle(奇观)______34______,surroundedbythewarmthofsharedmemories,laughter,andfriendship,Moriartyproposedanotherreunionintwodecadesforthenextsolareclipse.The______35______broughtlaughter,makingthemrememberthesamejoyfrom1978.21.A.printed
