【原文】W: Color affects our moods, so think carefully about what colors you use in your house. You could paint your living room walls green, for example, because green helps you to feel peaceful and calm. But don’t paint them red unless you want to be in a bad mood every time you’re there.
Thinking of painting your bedroom blue? Great idea! Blue will help you to concentrate and feel calm. You should use another color as well, because too much blue will make you sad. Add some yellow to keep things cheery.
What about the kitchen? Well, how about painting the kitchen purple if you want to create delicious food? Orange is a good choice too. It’ll make you feel energetic. Why not paint the bathroom white to help you organize your thoughts while taking a relaxing bath? Stay away from black, though, unless you want to scare your guests!
Basically, it all depends on how you want to feel! For more information and advice from a professional color expert, call 8745632.

In a video shared online, a young photographer, Lily, is seen confidently directing a well-known action movie star for a photograph. Even though the actor is very tall, she is not nervous. She tells him what to do like a real professional, even though she’s still quite young.
“Given his size, I asked him to make more pronounced movements,” said Lily, reflecting on the shoot in a recent interview. The young shutterbug (摄影爱好者) has already taken photos of several personalities and has earned a significant following online, with her work receiving millions of likes.
Lily’s journey into photography began when she was just four years old, with a simple point-and-shoot camera. Her father, recognizing her natural ability to connect with people, encouraged her to explore street photography. At the age of five, she captured a portrait of a renowned musician-turned-actress during a chance encounter in a store, which quickly went viral on the social media.
Since then, Lily has been receiving numerous requests to photograph top talents. “The more I photograph in public places, the more recognition I get, which in turn leads to more chances to work with well-known figures,” she explained.
Because of her young age, some have questioned how she manages to secure such high-profile shoots. Her father, who assists with minor post-production edits, explained that her unique perspective was what attracted the attention of talent agencies. “Through Lily’s lens (镜头), subjects show a different side,” he said. “Her photos capture a softer, gentler aspect of people, celebrity or not.”
Addressing concerns about the use of filters and heavy editing, Lily insists that her images are minimally processed. Her ultimate goal is to evoke (唤起) emotions through her photography and, eventually, to become a full-time portrait photographer. For now, she continues to hone (磨炼) her craft and enjoys the present moment.
24. What phenomenon is described in the first paragraph?
A. A girl is directing a film. B. How a girl is photographing.
C. Children need social activities. D. How a short video is produced.
25. What made Lily gain more attention?
A. She photographed many action movies. B. A famous actress offered to help her.
C. Her father made her skills known. D. Social media played a significant role.
26. How does Lily differ from professional photographers in photographing?
A. She is good at adjusting lens. B. She constantly learns from others.
C. She photographs from a special angle. D. She gains recognition from celebrities.
27. What is Lily’s attitude to improving her skill?
A. Hesitant. B. Determined. C. Pessimistic. D. Negative.
【答案】24. B 25. D 26. C 27. B

While there are already apps that guide blind users to a bus stop’s approximate location, those people may unknowingly end up standing too far away from the actual stop. A new app addresses that shortcoming by letting the smartphone’s camera in on the act.
Known as All_Aboard, the AI-based app was developed by a team of scientists at the Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts Eye and Ear treatment and research center. It’s made to be used along with a third-party GPS-based online navigational (导航的) map.
Users start by using other apps to get to a bus stop’s location. They then open All _Aboard and proceed to hold their smartphone up so that its back camera can “see” the surrounding street. Drawing upon a deep learning neural network which was trained on around 10,000 images of bus stops within that city, the app is reportedly able to visually identify the target stop’s sign if it’s within a range of up to 15 meters away. Once the sign has been spotted, the app guides the user via sonar-like beeps (哔哔声) which change pitch and speed as the person gets closer to the bus stop.
In field tests, 24 legally blind volunteers used both online maps and All _Aboard to locate 20 bus stops—10 in an urban setting and 10 in a suburban environment.
When it came to getting close enough to those stops online maps alone had a success rate of just 52%, whereas All _Aboard boosted the number to 93%. Additionally, while the average distance between the map’s endpoint and the actual bus stop was 6.62 meters with online maps, it was just 1.54 meters with All _Aboard.
“Our findings suggest that the All _Aboard app could help travelers with visual impairments (视力受损) in navigation by accurately detecting the bus stop, and therefore greatly reducing their chance of missing buses due to standing too far from the bus stops,” said Massachusetts Eye and Ear’s Assoc. Prof. Gang Luo. “This study indicates that computer vision-based object recognition capabilities can be used in a complementary (补充的) way and provide added benefit to purely mapping-based, macro-navigation services in real-world settings.”
28. What is the author’s purpose of writing paragraph 1?
A. To introduce the topic.
B. To highlight other apps.
C. To show the new app’s shortcomings.
D. To detailedly compare the new app with others.
29. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The importance of camera in smartphones.
B. The potential advantage of the new app.
C. How the new app All _ Aboard works.
D. Why users get closer to the bus stop.
30. What can we infer about All _ Aboard from the data given in paragraph 5?
A. High accuracy. B. Good reputation.
C. Perfect property. D. More application.
31. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Blind Users Benefiting From Science
B. A New App Is In The Charge Of Its Users
C. Online Maps Needing Improvement To The Bus Service
D. All _ Aboard Making Navigation Efficient For The Blind
【答案】28. A 29. C 30. A 31. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一款名为All_Aboard的应用程序,这款应用通过智能手机的摄像头和AI技术,帮助视力受损的用户更准确地找到公交车站的位置。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段内容“While there are already apps that guide blind users to a bus stop’s approximate location, those people may unknowingly end up standing too far away from the actual stop. A new app addresses that shortcoming by letting the smartphone’s camera in on the act.(虽然已经有一些应用程序可以引导盲人用户找到公交车站的大致位置,但这些人可能会在不知情的情况下站得离实际的车站太远。一款新的应用程序可以让智能手机的摄像头拍摄到这一过程,从而弥补了这一缺陷。)”,可知,本段提到虽然已经有应用程序可以引导盲人用户到达公交车站的大致位置,但这些用户可能会在不知不觉中站得离实际站点太远。这为文章想要解决的问题设定了背景和情境,随后在下一段中介绍了新的应用程序All_Aboard。因此,段落1的目的是引入文章的主题。故选A。
【29题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“Users start by using other apps to get to a bus stop’s location. They then open All _Aboard and proceed to hold their smartphone up so that its back camera can “see” the surrounding street. Drawing upon a deep learning neural network which was trained on around 10,000 images of bus stops within that city, the app is reportedly able to visually identify the target stop’s sign if it’s within a range of up to 15 meters away. Once the sign has been spotted, the app guides the user via sonar-like beeps(哔哔声) which change pitch and speed as the person gets closer to the bus stop.(用户首先使用其他应用程序来获取公交车站位置。然后他们打开All - aboard,举起智能手机,让后置摄像头“看到”周围的街道。据报道,该应用程序利用深度学习神经网络,对该市约1万张公交车站的图像进行了训练,如果目标车站在15米范围内,它就能从视觉上识别出目标车站的标志。一旦发现指示牌,该应用程序就会通过类似声纳的哔哔声引导用户,当用户靠近公交车站时,哔哔声会改变音调和速度。)”可知,本段详细描述了All_Aboard这款新应用程序是如何工作的。它提到用户首先使用其他应用程序到达公交车站的位置,然后打开All_Aboard并举起智能手机,使其背面的摄像头能够“看到”周围的街道。接着,应用程序通过深度学习神经网络识别目标公交车站的标志,并通过类似声纳的哔哔声引导用户。因此,该段落主要解释了新应用程序的工作原理。故选C。

Southern Africa is home to most of the world’s black and white rhinos. Because of global warming, the weather in this area is changing quickly. People have worked hard to protect rhinos from being hunted, but until now, no one has really looked at how the changing weather might hurt these animals.
A research team from the University of Massachusetts Amherst has recently reported that the area will be affected by both higher temperatures and changing precipitation (降水) and the rhinos are more sensitive to rising temperatures, which will quickly increase above the animals’ acceptable maximum threshold.
Over the last 100 years, Africa’s average monthly temperatures have gone up by 0.5℃ to 2℃. Scientists think that in the next 100 years, it might get even warmer, up to 2 more degrees. This change in weather might also change how much rain we get. But here’s the thing:For animals like white and black rhinos, which people have been trying to protect for a long time, will the heat or the rain changes hurt them more? This is a big question because rhinos don’t have sweat to cool down. They stay cool by taking baths and staying in cool shady spots.
To understand how changing climate will affect rhino populations, lead author Hlelowenkhosi S. Mamba and his colleague, focused their efforts on five large national parks representing diverse landscapes in southern Africa that are home to most of the rhinos. They have found that temperature conditions in all study parks will become increasingly unsuitable for both species, but it is predicted that white rhinos will be affected earlier than black rhinos.
“This research highlights the importance of using climate predictions for both park and rhino management,” says Randhir. “We propose that park managers now think about increasing water supplies, tree cover, watching for stress and planning to allow rhino migration as the world warms.”
32. How are rhinos traditionally protected?
A. By building their living habitats.
B. By saving them from illegal hunt.
C. By monitoring their physical health.
D. By removing their breeding surroundings.
33. Which can best replace the underlined word “threshold” in paragraph 2?
A. range B. register C. average D. content
34. What is a means for rhinos to fight against heat?
A. Cooling heat off by sweating. B. Drinking much water.
C. Migrating to other places. D. Bathing in the water.
35. What is the key suggestion for park managers to help rhinos adapt to climate change?
A. Predicting the weather. B. Buying new species.
C. Boosting habitats. D. Restricting visitors.
【答案】32. B 33. A 34. D 35. C
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了随着全球气候的变暖,气温已经上升到犀牛无法承受的范围,从而影响犀牛的数量。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“People have worked hard to protect rhinos from being hunted, but until now, no one has really looked at how the changing weather might hurt these animals. (人们一直在努力保护犀牛不被猎杀,但是直到现在都没人真正地着眼于气候变化对这些动物可能会造成的伤害。)”可知,传统来说,人们保护犀牛是防止它们被非法猎杀,故选B。
【33题详解】
词义猜测题。根据文章划线词threshold前文的内容“A research team from the University of Massachusetts Amherst has recently reported that the area will be affected by both higher temperatures and changing precipitation (降水) and the rhinos are more sensitive to rising temperatures, which will quickly increase above the animals’ acceptable maximum (Massachusetts Amherst大学的一个研究团队最近报道,该地区将受到更高温度和不断变化的降水量的影响,犀牛对温度上升更敏感,温度上升将迅速超过动物可接受的最大的)”可知,温度在持续上升,已经超过了犀牛的接受能力,故此处划线词threshold与A项“range范围”意思相近,已经超过了犀牛的可接受的最大范围,故选A。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“This is a big question because rhinos don’t have sweat to cool down. They stay cool by taking baths and staying in cool shady spots. (这是一个大问题,因为犀牛没有汗水来降温。他们通过洗澡和待在阴凉的地方来保持凉爽。)”可知,犀牛通过洗澡和待在阴凉处的地方来保持凉爽,来降温,故选D。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段““This research highlights the importance of using climate predictions tor both park and rhino management,” says Randhir. “We propose that park managers now think about increasing water supplies, tree cover, watching for stress and planning to allow rhino migration as the world warms.” (Randhir说道:“这项研究强调了在公园和犀牛管理中心使用气候预测的重要性。我们建议公园管理者现在考虑增加水资源、树木覆盖、关注压力并计划随着世界变暖允许犀牛迁徙。”)”可知,对于公园管理者的建议是通过增加水资源、树木覆盖等方式来改善犀牛的栖息地,故选C。

____36____ The fact smiling reduces your heart rate when you’re stressed is also likely to have a knock-on effect on blood pressure. Other research has shown blood pressure doesn’t rise when people are exposed to humour.
Beaming (笑容满面) boosts immunity. A smile releases certain hormones in the brain, including serotonin (血清素), which is associated with an improvement in immune function. ____37____ Depression, on the other hand, can weaken your immune system.
A smile can relieve your pain. Being amused also prompts the release of endorphins (内啡肽) in the brain.____38____ In one study, participants who smiled while being injected reported 40% less pain than those holding a neutral expression.
Looking happy encourages positivity. ____39____ A 2022 study of 3,878 participants in 19 countries found people’s happiness rating was higher when they smiled.
Smiling makes you welcome to others and helps you connect with them. Fortunately, with enough practice, smiling can become an automatic behavior. You can use certain situations as cues to smile. You might remind yourself to smile when you hear someone laugh or while you’re in the process of making tea. You could set a note on your phone to help remember to smile.____40____
A. Smiling can reduce heart rate.
B. Smiling may lower blood pressure.
C. They are the body's natural painkillers.
D. Study found that smiling can make one live longer.
E. So, if you want to stay well, you should smile more.

【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了微笑的减轻压力的能力。
【36题详解】
根据空后“The fact smiling reduces your heart rate when you’re stressed is also likely to have a knock-on effect on blood pressure.(当你感到有压力时微笑能降低心率这一事实也可能对血压有连锁反应)”可知,后文提到微笑时心率的降低也能对血压起到连锁反应,故B项“微笑能降低血压”符合,空后的also与B项递进,微笑能降低血压,微笑时心率的降低也对血压起着连锁作用,故选B项。
【37题详解】
根据空前“Beaming(笑容满面) boosts immunity. A smile releases certain hormones in the brain, including serotonin(血清素), which is associated with an improvement in immune function.(笑容满面能增强免疫力。一个微笑在大脑中释放特殊的荷尔蒙,包括血清素,血清素与免疫功能的提升有着很大的关系。)”可知,空前提到微笑能提高人的免疫力,故E项“因此,如果你想要身体健康,你就应该多微笑。”符合,与空前构成因果关系,故选E项。
【38题详解】
根据前文“A smile can relieve your pain. Being amused also prompts the release of endorphins(内啡肽) in the brain.(微笑能减轻你的痛苦。开心也能提升大脑中内啡肽的释放。)”可知,C项“它们是身体天然的止痛药。”与空前顺义承接,C项中的“They”指代空前的endorphins,开心能促进内啡肽的释放,而内啡肽就是身体天然的止痛药,故选C项。
【39题详解】
根据空前“Looking happy encourages positivity.(微笑能鼓励积极性。)”可知,本段主要介绍微笑能鼓励积极性。故F项“微笑能提升心情,而不仅仅是对高兴的回应。”可知,F项是对空前的解释,微笑能鼓励积极性,能提升心情,而不仅仅是对高兴的回应,故选F项。
【40题详解】
根据空前“You might remind yourself to smile when you hear someone laugh or while you’re in the process of making tea. You could set a note on your phone to help remember to smile.(当你听到别人大笑或者当年你在泡茶时,你可以提醒自己微笑。你可以在手机上做记录帮助你记得微笑。)”可知,空前分别列举了两种提醒自己微笑的例子,故此处G项“想一个最喜欢的人或者开心的回忆也能让你微笑。”符合,与前文构成并列关系,分别列举如何提醒自己微笑的事例,故选G项。

第二节 (满分25分)
67. 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。
After school, I rushed back home, excited. “Mom,” I said, “I’ve been nominated (提名) for the National Junior Honor Society.” My mother patted my shoulders, saying, “I’m so proud of you.”
As I filled out the honor society application form, I had to prove that I had all the characteristics required in a candidate: scholarship, leadership, service, and character. I wrote that I worked hard at my classes; I made the high honor roll most quarters; I listed my singing with the District Select Chorus to raise money for the community. The next day, I handed in the application form to the school and didn’t think any more about it.
Months went by, and I received a letter from the school about the honor society. My mother was typing at the computer. “Mom,” I said sadly, “I didn’t make the honor society.” She smiled and held up her hand to give me a high five. “You are joking.” I felt tears roll down from my eyes. “No, really, they didn’t pick me,” I said and handed her the letter.
“Oh, honey, I’m sorry. I thought you were kidding,” my mother replied. “There must be some mistake.” She grabbed the phone and dialed the principal (校长). He told her that no mistake was made. It was the decision of the school committee.
“It’s not fair,” I said that night at supper. My mother agreed. Nearly all of my friends were chosen for the honor society. Not being a member of the honor society wasn’t going to ruin my future, but it was hurting me now.
My dad noted, “They should set up specific requirements for selection. For example, each candidate must have five hours of community service a month.” “The committee should give a reason why I wasn’t chosen, so the student can do better,” I said.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Hearing my words, Dad advised having a discussion about the selection process.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
A few days later, the principal phoned to say that the committee was going to use some of our suggestions.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文:
Hearing my words, Dad advised having a discussion about the selection process. We discussed ways that the selection process might be improved. As the saying goes, two heads are better than one. Having expressed ourselves respectively, we put forward our ideas. At the same time, we decided that we should make our opinions clear to the school. So I wrote a letter to the school and hoped that they could take my suggestions into account. Everything settled, I felt relieved and calm, no matter what the result was.
A few days later, the principal phoned to say that the committee was going to use some of our suggestions. There was nothing like the news to make me excited. They admitted that their selection process needed improving to satisfy the need of each one, and they also showed their genuine gratitude to us for the suggestions, wishing us to give more. I felt more than proud that I did my small part in facilitating the development of my school. Without doubt, it’s my parents that played an important role in the process.

In a video shared online, a young photographer, Lily, is seen confidently directing a well-known action movie star for a photograph. Even though the actor is very tall, she is not nervous. She tells him what to do like a real professional, even though she’s still quite young.
“Given his size, I asked him to make more pronounced movements,” said Lily, reflecting on the shoot in a recent interview. The young shutterbug (摄影爱好者) has already taken photos of several personalities and has earned a significant following online, with her work receiving millions of likes.
Lily’s journey into photography began when she was just four years old, with a simple point-and-shoot camera. Her father, recognizing her natural ability to connect with people, encouraged her to explore street photography. At the age of five, she captured a portrait of a renowned musician-turned-actress during a chance encounter in a store, which quickly went viral on the social media.
Since then, Lily has been receiving numerous requests to photograph top talents. “The more I photograph in public places, the more recognition I get, which in turn leads to more chances to work with well-known figures,” she explained.
Because of her young age, some have questioned how she manages to secure such high-profile shoots. Her father, who assists with minor post-production edits, explained that her unique perspective was what attracted the attention of talent agencies. “Through Lily’s lens (镜头), subjects show a different side,” he said. “Her photos capture a softer, gentler aspect of people, celebrity or not.”
Addressing concerns about the use of filters and heavy editing, Lily insists that her images are minimally processed. Her ultimate goal is to evoke (唤起) emotions through her photography and, eventually, to become a full-time portrait photographer. For now, she continues to hone (磨炼) her craft and enjoys the present moment.
24 What phenomenon is described in the first paragraph?
A. A girl is directing a film. B. How a girl is photographing.
C. Children need social activities. D. How a short video is produced.
25. What made Lily gain more attention?
A. She photographed many action movies. B. A famous actress offered to help her.
C. Her father made her skills known. D. Social media played a significant role.
26. How does Lily differ from professional photographers in photographing?
A. She is good at adjusting lens. B. She constantly learns from others.
C. She photographs from a special angle. D. She gains recognition from celebrities.
27. What is Lily’s attitude to improving her skill?
A. Hesitant. B. Determined. C. Pessimistic. D. Negative.

While there are already apps that guide blind users to a bus stop’s approximate location, those people may unknowingly end up standing too far away from the actual stop. A new app addresses that shortcoming by letting the smartphone’s camera in on the act.
Known as All_Aboard, the AI-based app was developed by a team of scientists at the Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts Eye and Ear treatment and research center. It’s made to be used along with a third-party GPS-based online navigational (导航的) map.
Users start by using other apps to get to a bus stop’s location. They then open All _Aboard and proceed to hold their smartphone up so that its back camera can “see” the surrounding street. Drawing upon a deep learning neural network which was trained on around 10,000 images of bus stops within that city, the app is reportedly able to visually identify the target stop’s sign if it’s within a range of up to 15 meters away. Once the sign has been spotted, the app guides the user via sonar-like beeps (哔哔声) which change pitch and speed as the person gets closer to the bus stop.
In field tests, 24 legally blind volunteers used both online maps and All _Aboard to locate 20 bus stops—10 in an urban setting and 10 in a suburban environment.
When it came to getting close enough to those stops, online maps alone had a success rate of just 52%, whereas All _Aboard boosted the number to 93%. Additionally, while the average distance between the map’s endpoint and the actual bus stop was 6.62 meters with online maps, it was just 1.54 meters with All _Aboard.
“Our findings suggest that the All _Aboard app could help travelers with visual impairments (视力受损) in navigation by accurately detecting the bus stop, and therefore greatly reducing their chance of missing buses due to standing too far from the bus stops,” said Massachusetts Eye and Ear’s Assoc. Prof. Gang Luo. “This study indicates that computer vision-based object recognition capabilities can be used in a complementary (补充的) way and provide added benefit to purely mapping-based, macro-navigation services in real-world settings.”
28. What is the author’s purpose of writing paragraph 1?
A. To introduce the topic.
B. To highlight other apps.
C. To show the new app’s shortcomings.
D. To detailedly compare the new app with others.
29. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The importance of camera in smartphones.
B. The potential advantage of the new app.
C How the new app All _ Aboard works.
D. Why users get closer to the bus stop.
30. What can we infer about All _ Aboard from the data given in paragraph 5?
A. High accuracy. B. Good reputation.
C. Perfect property. D. More application.
31. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Blind Users Benefiting From Science
B. A New App Is In The Charge Of Its Users
C. Online Maps Needing Improvement To The Bus Service
D. All _ Aboard Making Navigation Efficient For The Blind

Southern Africa is home to most of the world’s black and white rhinos. Because of global warming, the weather in this area is changing quickly. People have worked hard to protect rhinos from being hunted, but until now, no one has really looked at how the changing weather might hurt these animals.
A research team from the University of Massachusetts Amherst has recently reported that the area will be affected by both higher temperatures and changing precipitation (降水) and the rhinos are more sensitive to rising temperatures, which will quickly increase above the animals’ acceptable maximum threshold.
Over the last 100 years, Africa’s average monthly temperatures have gone up by 0.5℃ to 2℃. Scientists think that in the next 100 years, it might get even warmer, up to 2 more degrees. This change in weather might also change how much rain we get. But here’s the thing:For animals like white and black rhinos, which people have been trying to protect for a long time, will the heat or the rain changes hurt them more? This is a big question because rhinos don’t have sweat to cool down. They stay cool by taking baths and staying in cool shady spots.
To understand how changing climate will affect rhino populations, lead author Hlelowenkhosi S. Mamba and his colleague, focused their efforts on five large national parks representing diverse landscapes in southern Africa that are home to most of the rhinos. They have found that temperature conditions in all study parks will become increasingly unsuitable for both species, but it is predicted that white rhinos will be affected earlier than black rhinos.
“This research highlights the importance of using climate predictions for both park and rhino management,” says Randhir. “We propose that park managers now think about increasing water supplies, tree cover, watching for stress and planning to allow rhino migration as the world warms.”
32. How are rhinos traditionally protected?
A. By building their living habitats.
B. By saving them from illegal hunt.
C. By monitoring their physical health.
D. By removing their breeding surroundings.
33. Which can best replace the underlined word “threshold” in paragraph 2?
A. range B. register C. average D. content
34. What is a means for rhinos to fight against heat?
A. Cooling heat off by sweating. B. Drinking much water.
C. Migrating to other places. D. Bathing in the water.
35. What is the key suggestion for park managers to help rhinos adapt to climate change?
A. Predicting the weather. B. Buying new species.
C. Boosting habitats. D. Restricting visitors.

67. 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。
After school, I rushed back home, excited. “Mom,” I said, “I’ve been nominated (提名) for the National Junior Honor Society.” My mother patted my shoulders, saying, “I’m so proud of you.”
As I filled out the honor society application form, I had to prove that I had all the characteristics required in a candidate: scholarship, leadership, service, and character. I wrote that I worked hard at my classes; I made the high honor roll most quarters; I listed my singing with the District Select Chorus to raise money for the community. The next day, I handed in the application form to the school and didn’t think any more about it.
Months went by, and I received a letter from the school about the honor society. My mother was typing at the computer. “Mom,” I said sadly, “I didn’t make the honor society.” She smiled and held up her hand to give me a high five. “You are joking.” I felt tears roll down from my eyes. “No, really, they didn’t pick me,” I said and handed her the letter.
“Oh honey, I’m sorry. I thought you were kidding,” my mother replied. “There must be some mistake.” She grabbed the phone and dialed the principal (校长). He told her that no mistake was made. It was the decision of the school committee.
“It’s not fair,” I said that night at supper. My mother agreed. Nearly all of my friends were chosen for the honor society. Not being a member of the honor society wasn’t going to ruin my future, but it was hurting me now.
My dad noted, “They should set up specific requirements for selection. For example, each candidate must have five hours of community service a month.” “The committee should give a reason why I wasn’t chosen, so the student can do better,” I said.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Hearing my words, Dad advised having a discussion about the selection process.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
A few days later, the principal phoned to say that the committee was going to use some of our suggestions.
