As we all know, our planet is facing numerous challenges when it comes to preserving our natural resources. It is our responsibility to take action and create a sustainable future for generations to come.
First, it is crucial to understand the importance of recycling. By recycling our waste, we can reduce the amount of garbage that ends up in landfills, conserve natural resources, and minimize pollution.
Moreover, proper waste disposal is essential to protect our ecosystems. When waste is not dealt with correctly, it can pollute soil and water bodies. This, in turn, poses a threat to the health of both humans and wildlife. By reusing, recycling and reducing waste, we can help preserve our delicate ecosystems and ensure a healthier planet for all.
In conclusion, environmental protection and waste recycling are issues that we cannot afford to ignore. Each one of us has a role to play in creating a more sustainable future. Let’s work together to reduce our carbon footprint, recycle our waste, and leave a positive impact on our planet. Thank you.

【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章介绍大熊猫“福宝”在韩国很受欢迎,并将被送回中国大熊猫保护与研究中心。
【24题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“During the last week of Fu Bao’s public viewing earlier this month, visitors endured waiting for 5—6 hours just to give a glance at the panda for only five minutes, as Everland Panda World restricted viewing time to manage the flood of visitors. (本月早些时候,在“福宝”公开参观的最后一周,由于爱宝乐园熊猫世界限制了参观时间,游客们忍受了5-6个小时的等待,只是为了看一眼这只熊猫,只有5分钟。)”和第二段“Born to parents Ai Bao and Le Bao in July 2020, Fu Bao is South Korea’s first naturally-born panda. In the days following her birth, Everland’s social media channels offered fans a steady diet of Fu Bao videos, pulling in more than 1.2 million subscribers and, as of February, over 500 million accumulated views. The most recent videos are now filled with warm and sincere messages from viewers. (“福宝”于2020年7月由爱宝和乐宝父母所生,是韩国第一只自然出生的大熊猫。在她出生后的几天里,爱宝乐园的社交媒体频道为粉丝们提供了稳定的“福宝”视频,吸引了超过120万的订阅者,截至2月份,累计观看次数超过5亿。最近的视频现在充满了来自观众的温暖和真诚的信息。)”可知前两段主要讲述大熊猫“福宝”在韩国很受欢迎,故选C。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Often referred to as her grandpa, Kang Chul-won offered hi own farewell message to Fu Bao, noting that the South Koreans’ special love for her all began with social media videos shared during the pandemic when the zoo was closed. She brought help and happiness to a society in many ways that was having a difficult time due to the virus. He said people visited the social media sites every day so it felt like he was raising her together with them. They cared so much for her and shared the same emotions of raising a baby panda together during such difficult times. (通常被称为 “爷爷”的Kang Chul-won向“福宝”发表了自己的告别致辞,他指出,韩国人对她的特殊爱都始于疫情期间动物园关闭期间分享的社交媒体视频。她在许多方面为一个因病毒而陷入困境的社会带来了帮助和幸福。他说,人们每天都访问社交媒体网站,所以感觉他和他们一起抚养她。他们非常关心她,在这样的困难时期,他们分享了共同抚养熊猫宝宝的情感。)”可知在疫情期间,“福宝”给社会带来了帮助和幸福,所以韩国人认为“福宝”鼓励他们克服困难。故选C。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Everland says that she will be kept alone at Everland Panda World for a month to prepare her to adjust to her new environment before her overseas transfer, which will be carried out in accordance with international rules. (爱宝乐园方面表示,在按照国际规定进行海外转移之前,将“福宝”在爱宝乐园熊猫世界单独饲养一个月,以适应新的环境。)”可知在离开韩国的一个月前,“福宝”将被单独饲养以适应新环境。故选B。
【27题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Everland says that she will be kept alone at Everland Panda World for a month to prepare her to adjust to her new environment before her overseas transfer (爱宝乐园方面表示,在进行海外转移之前,将“福宝”在爱宝乐园熊猫世界单独饲养一个月,以适应新的环境)”可推断这是按照国际规则进行的,所以in accordance with意为“按照,依据”,和In agreement with同义,A. On behalf of代表;B. In terms of就……而言;C. In company with一起;D. In agreement with同意,与……一致,故选D。
C
Imagine a horizontal line. The very left is marked one thousand and the very right is marked one billion. On this line, where would you add a marker to represent one million? If you said somewhere in the middle, you answered the same as the roughly 50 percent of people who have done this exercise in a number line study. But the answer is actually much closer to one thousand since there are one thousand millions in one billion.
This error makes sense because “our human brains are pretty bad at comprehending large numbers,” says Elizabeth Toomarian, an educational neuroscientist at Stanford University. Our brain is built to understand how much of something is in its environment. But comprehending the national debt or imagining the size of our universe? “We certainly can use our brains in that way, but we’re recycling these sorts of evolutionarily (进化地) old brain architectures to do something really new,” she says. In other words, it’s not our fault that we have trouble wrapping our heads around big numbers.
So what can we do about the struggle to understand big numbers? It is suggested to use metaphors, analogies (类比) and visualizations. These techniques bring big numbers down to a more comprehensible scale (比例) and ideally make it relevant to something in our daily lives. For example, it may be difficult for most people to accurately place the extinction of the dinosaurs on a timeline between the Big Bang and humans because the first two both seem to be placed to the distant path. But when conceptualizing (概念化) these events using a “calendar”, it becomes easier. The Big Bang occurred at 12 a.m. on January 1st on the calendar. Dinosaurs were only present for roughly the last week of the year. And humans only emerged in the last eight sends December 31st, at 12:59:52 p.m. It’s clear now that dinosaurs are much closer to humans than the Big Bang on a timeline.
These metaphors and analogies are important if people are to really weigh the costs and benefits of events in their lives. The concept not only applies to long-term decisions, but public policies.
28. Why does the author mention the example in the first paragraph?
A. To introduce the topic. B. To explain the main idea.
C. To make a summary of the text. D. To make comparisons with other topics.
29. According to Toomarian, what’s to blame for being unable to work out big numbers?
A. The lack of conceptual techniques.
B. The unwillingness to learn something new.
C. Our low ability to evaluate and compare.
D. Our inborn nature due to evolutionary factors.
30. What is recommended for the understanding of big numbers?
A. Making them related to each other.
B. Wrapping our heads around them.
C. Using techniques to put them to a smaller scale.
D. Applying a calendar to present them.
31. What will probably be further discussed in the following paragraph?
A. How to make long-term decisions.
B. How metaphors and analogies help solve public problems.
C. How to weigh the costs and benefits in our life.
D. How important public policies are in our life
【答案】28. A 29. D 30. C 31. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是人类在面对大数字理解上的困难,以及如何通过隐喻、类比和形象化等技巧来克服这种困难。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“This error makes sense because “our human brains are pretty bad at comprehending large numbers,” says Elizabeth Toomarian, an educational neuroscientist at Stanford University. Our brain is built to understand how much of something is in its environment. But comprehending the national debt or imagining the size of our universe?(这个错误是有道理的,因为‘我们人类的大脑在理解大数字方面非常糟糕,’斯坦福大学的教育神经科学家Elizabeth Toomarian说。我们的大脑是用来理解环境中有多少东西的。但是理解国家债务或者想象我们宇宙的大小呢?)”可知,作者在第一段提到这个例子是为了引出本文的话题,即我们的大脑如何理解大数字,故选A。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段““We certainly can use our brains in that way, but we’re recycling these sorts of evolutionarily (进化地) old brain architectures to do something really new,” she says. In other words, it’s not our fault that we have trouble wrapping our heads around big numbers.(她说:‘我们当然可以以这种方式使用我们的大脑,但我们正在循环利用这些进化上古老的大脑结构来做一些真正新的事情。’换句话说,我们无法理解大数字并不是我们的错。)”可知,根据Toomarian的说法,不能计算大数字的原因是由进化因素决定的我们与生俱来的天性。故选D。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“It is suggested to use metaphors, analogies (类比) and visualizations. These techniques bring big numbers down to a more comprehensible scale (比例) and ideally make it relevant to something in our daily lives.(建议使用隐喻、类比和形象化。这些技术将庞大的数字缩小到更容易理解的规模,并理想地使其与我们日常生活中的某些事物相关。)”可知,对于理解大数的建议是隐喻、类比和形象化等技巧把它们缩小。故选C。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“These metaphors and analogies are important if people are to really weigh the costs and benefits of events in their lives. The concept not only applies to long-term decisions, but public policies.(如果人们要真正衡量生活中事件的成本和收益,这些隐喻和类比是很重要的。这一概念不仅适用于长期决策,也适用于公共政策。)”可推知,在下一段中可能会进一步讨论隐喻和类比如何帮助解决公共问题。故选B。
D
Chinese researchers have revealed the anti-cancer characteristic of neutrophils (中性粒细胞) — a type of white blood cells—and the related molecular regulation mechanism, providing new insights into cancer diagnosis and treatment. The discovery, made by researchers at the Shanghai Institute of Immunity and Infection under the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Fudan University, was published in Cell on Tuesday.
Neutrophils are the most abundant white blood cells in the human body. As the first line of defence against infections, they play a key role in anti-infection immunity. The researchers collected neutrophils from 143 patients with 17 different types of cancer and analyzed them. They revealed that neutrophils can adopt at least 10 highly specialized and distinct functional states related to inflammation (炎症) , blood vessel formation and—most excitingly—presenting antigens (抗体) to activate powerful cancer-killing T cells.
“We were surprised to find such complexity and different roles within neutrophils, which have been ignored for so long,” said Zhang Xiaoming, a researcher at the Institute. “What is especially remarkable is their newly discovered capacity to act as antigen-presenting cells, gathering T cells against cancer. In addition, the abundance of antigen-presenting neutrophils is associated with improved condition across many cancer types revealed in this study,” he said.
“This completely changes how we perceive neutrophils in the context of cancer,” said Gao Qiang, a professor at Fudan University. “Now we know we could employ the diverse hidden identities of neutrophils to strengthen the effectiveness of immunotherapy (免疫疗法). We’re thrilled to further explore the potential benefits of these newly uncovered mechanisms in clines.”
The study emphasizes the value of single-cell sequencing approaches to reveal new functional dimension even within seemingly well-understood immune cells. Tapping into the hidden potential of neutrophils may provide new insights into cancer diagnosis and treatment.
32. How was the anti-cancer function of neutrophils discovered?
A. By referring to previous research.
B. By collecting and analyzing data.
C. By seeking guidance from experts.
D. By observing patients with inflammation.
33. Which of the following is a function of neutrophils?
A. Getting together T cells when needed.
B. Preventing the formation of antigens.
C. Speeding up the blood flow.
D. Distinguishing different types of cancer.
34. What’s Gao Qiang’s attitude towards the new research?
A. Positive. B. Doubtful. C. Worried. D. Unclear.
35. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Blood Cells Successfully Fight Against Severe Cancer
B. China Makes Great Progress in Fighting Against Diseases
C. Further Research Is Needed to Fight Against Cancer
D. Researchers Discover New Cancer-fighting Mechanism
【答案】32. B 33. A 34. A 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道,主要讲的是中国研究人员揭示了中性粒细胞(一种白细胞)在抗癌中的新特性和相关的分子调控机制,这一发现为癌症的诊断和治疗提供了新的见解。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“The researchers collected neutrophils from 143 patients with 17 different types of cancer and analyzed them. They revealed that neutrophils can adopt at least 10 highly specialized and distinct functional states related to inflammation (炎症) , blood vessel formation and—most excitingly—presenting antigens (抗体) to activate powerful cancer-killing T cells.(研究人员收集了143名患有17种不同类型癌症的患者的中性粒细胞,并对其进行了分析。他们发现,中性粒细胞至少可以采用10种与炎症、血管形成和最令人兴奋的呈递抗原相关的高度专业化和独特的功能状态,以激活强大的抗癌T细胞。)”可知,中性粒细胞的抗癌功能是通过收集和分析数据被发现的。故选B。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“What is especially remarkable is their newly discovered capacity to act as antigen-presenting cells, gathering T cells against cancer.(特别值得注意的是它们新发现的作为抗原呈递细胞的能力,聚集T细胞对抗癌症。)”可知,中性粒细胞的功能是在需要的时候聚集T细胞。故选A。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“This completely changes how we perceive neutrophils in the context of cancer(这完全改变了我们在癌症背景下对中性粒细胞的看法)”和“Now we know we could employ the diverse hidden identities of neutrophils to strengthen the effectiveness of immunotherapy (免疫疗法). We’re thrilled to further explore the potential benefits of these newly uncovered mechanisms in clines.(现在我们知道我们可以利用中性粒细胞的各种隐藏身份来加强免疫治疗的有效性。我们很高兴能进一步探索这些新发现的机制在临床中的潜在益处。)”可知,Gao Qiang对这项新研究的态度是积极的,故选A。

Imagine yourself in old age. Looking back at now, what do you wish you would have done more or differently with your time? ____40____ And how can you prioritize the future now, so that when you look back on it later, you think of it fondly?
Once you do such things, you will make choices that will benefit both your present self and future self.
A. Start a conversation between the selves.
B. What will your future self thank you for?
C. We often put feeling happy to the future us.
D. Learn to communicate with others through letters.

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。
Every week I save all the change and $1 bills I have in my purse. Then every Christmas I cash it in for as many $100 bills as the saved money gets me. I then wait for a family in need. I split the money in half and give half to the family in need and the other half to my nine-year-old son, Say’ Veon, who puts it in his savings account, to teach him about delayed satisfaction. Then he helps me get gifts or give the money to the family.
I adopted Say’ Veon after his mother a close friend of mine, passed away from cancer before his fifth birthday. Even though Say’ Veon has dealt with great loss and sadness at such a young age, his generous spirit and loving heart shine through. He has given money to someone else who needs it more, such as his friends or classmates. Say’ Veon’s acts of kindness always blow me away and I feel blessed to have him in my life.
This week I got a call from a friend, DeeDee, who is 77 years old. She was upset because she had been cheated, and the cheaters took all the money out of her checking account which she lives on, and now she didn’t have the money to pay her rent and bills.
This morning, I took the money and showed Say’ Veon how much I saved this year. I told him what happened to DeeDee, and then asked him if he would be willing to give his half along with my half and donate it to her as our person in need this year.
He said, “Yes, of course.” This year our total was $400.
We went to visit DeeDee and my son handed her a Christmas card with the money. She opened it and said, “Thank you.” She then looked again and stared at the $100 bills.
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。
DeeDee froze there with her eyes wide open.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Suddenly, Say’ Veon said to DeeDee, “You are our family!”
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
DeeDee froze there with her eyes wide open. Tears began to well up in her eyes as she realized the magnitude of the gift that she had just received. Her hands trembled slightly as she held the Christmas card the $400 a testament not only to financial help but also to the kindness and love that still existed in the world. “Oh my goodness, I... I don’t know what to say,” she stammered, her voice thick with excitement. “This is too much, you two, how can I ever repay you?”
Suddenly, Say’ Veon said to DeeDee, “You are our family!” The room resonated with his heartfelt words, prompting a tender smile from DeeDee as she hugged us. Through teary eyes, she agreed, “Family is who loves you, and you’ve shown me that today.” Our act of generosity forged a profound connection, surpassing any genetic bond. Departing with promises to stay connected, DeeDee’s restored hope and our hearts swelled with the miraculous spirit of Christmas, reminding us that the purest intentions wrap life’s greatest gifts.
【解析】
【导语】本篇书面表达是读后续写。本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了一位母亲每年都会与儿子Say’Veon一起存零钱,并在圣诞节时找到需要帮助的家庭进行捐赠的故事。今年,他们得知朋友DeeDee被骗取了所有存款,便决定将积蓄的400美元全部赠予她。DeeDee深受感动。
【详解】1.段落续写
①由第一段句首内容“DeeDee呆呆地呆在那里,眼睛睁得大大的。”可知,第一段可以描写DeeDee拿到钱时的动作和语言。
②由第二段句首内容“突然,Say’Veon对DeeDee说:‘你是我们的家人!’”可知,第二段可以描写DeeDee听到Say’Veon的话后的表情及动作和我们的感悟。
2.续写线索:DeeDee震惊——DeeDee感激——Say’Veon说是家人——拥抱——感悟
3.词汇激活
行为类
①开始:begin/commence
②意识到:realize/be aware of
③拥抱:hug/embrace
情绪类
①充满兴奋:thick with excitement/full of exhilaration
②泪眼:teary eyes/eyes blurred by tears

【高分句型2】The room resonated with his heartfelt words, prompting a tender smile from DeeDee as she hugged us. (运用了现在分词prompting作状语、as引导的时间状语从句)

During the last week of Fu Bao’s public viewing earlier this month, visitors endured waiting for 5—6 hours just to give a glance at the panda for only five minutes, as Everland Panda World restricted viewing time to manage the flood of visitors.
Born to parents Ai Bao and Le Bao in July 2020, Fu Bao is South Korea’s first naturally-born panda. In the days following her birth, Everland’s social media channels offered fans a steady diet of Fu Bao videos, pulling in more than 1.2 million subscribers and, as of February, over 500 million accumulated views. The most recent videos are now filled with warm and sincere messages from viewers.
Thanks to Fu Bao’s widespread popularity, her zookeeper has also found himself in the spotlight, becoming a bit of a social media star himself. Often referred to as her grandpa, Kang Chul-won offered hi own farewell message to Fu Bao, noting that the South Koreans’ special love for her all began with social media videos shared during the pandemic when the zoo was closed. She brought help and happiness to a society in many ways that was having a difficult time due to the virus. He said people visited the social media sites every day so it felt like he was raising her together with them. They cared so much for her and shared the same emotions of raising a baby panda together during such difficult times.
Fu Bao will be transferred to China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda in Sichuan Province. Everland says that she will be kept alone at Everland Panda World for a month to prepare her to adjust to her new environment before her overseas transfer, which will be carried out in accordance with international rules.
24. What can we learn about Fu Bao from the first two paragraphs?

C. She is very popular in South Korea. D. She came from Sichuan, China.
25. What do South Koreans think of Fu Bao?
A. She is a live symbol of luck and fortune.
B. She is an animal who can resist any virus.
C She is an inspiration to overcome difficulties.
D. She is their common possession and business.
26. What will Fu Bao do a month before leaving South Korea?
A. She will go on show in Everland. B. She will be separated for adjustment.
C. She will leave Everland Panda World. D. She will be moved to a research center.

Imagine a horizontal line. The very left is marked one thousand and the very right is marked one billion. On this line, where would you add a marker to represent one million? If you said somewhere in the middle, you answered the same as the roughly 50 percent of people who have done this exercise in a number line study. But the answer is actually much closer to one thousand since there are one thousand millions in one billion.
This error makes sense because “our human brains are pretty bad at comprehending large numbers,” says Elizabeth Toomarian, an educational neuroscientist at Stanford University. Our brain is built to understand how much of something is in its environment. But comprehending the national debt or imagining the size of our universe? “We certainly can use our brains in that way, but we’re recycling these sorts of evolutionarily (进化地) old brain architectures to do something really new,” she says. In other words, it’s not our fault that we have trouble wrapping our heads around big numbers.
So what can we do about the struggle to understand big numbers? It is suggested to use metaphors, analogies (类比) and visualizations. These techniques bring big numbers down to a more comprehensible scale (比例) and ideally make it relevant to something in our daily lives. For example, it may be difficult for most people to accurately place the extinction of the dinosaurs on a timeline between the Big Bang and humans because the first two both seem to be placed to the distant path. But when conceptualizing (概念化) these events using a “calendar”, it becomes easier. The Big Bang occurred at 12 a.m. on January 1st on the calendar. Dinosaurs were only present for roughly the last week of the year. And humans only emerged in the last eight sends December 31st, at 12:59:52 p.m. It’s clear now that dinosaurs are much closer to humans than the Big Bang on a timeline.
These metaphors and analogies are important if people are to really weigh the costs and benefits of events in their lives. The concept not only applies to long-term decisions, but public policies.
28. Why does the author mention the example in the first paragraph?
A. To introduce the topic. B. To explain the main idea.
C. To make a summary of the text. D. To make comparisons with other topics.
29. According to Toomarian, what’s to blame for being unable to work out big numbers?
A. The lack of conceptual techniques.
B. The unwillingness to learn something new.
C. Our low ability to evaluate and compare.
D. Our inborn nature due to evolutionary factors.
30. What is recommended for the understanding of big numbers?
A. Making them related to each other.
B. Wrapping our heads around them.
C. Using techniques to put them to a smaller scale.
D. Applying a calendar to present them.
31. What will probably be further discussed in the following paragraph?
A. How to make long-term decisions.
B. How metaphors and analogies help solve public problems.
C. How to weigh the costs and benefits in our life.
D. How important public policies are in our life

Chinese researchers have revealed the anti-cancer characteristic of neutrophils (中性粒细胞) — a type of white blood cells—and the related molecular regulation mechanism, providing new insights into cancer diagnosis and treatment. The discovery, made by researchers at the Shanghai Institute of Immunity and Infection under the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Fudan University, was published in Cell on Tuesday.
Neutrophils are the most abundant white blood cells in the human body. As the first line of defence against infections, they play a key role in anti-infection immunity. The researchers collected neutrophils from 143 patients with 17 different types of cancer and analyzed them. They revealed that neutrophils can adopt at least 10 highly specialized and distinct functional states related to inflammation (炎症) , blood vessel formation and—most excitingly—presenting antigens (抗体) to activate powerful cancer-killing T cells.
“We were surprised to find such complexity and different roles within neutrophils, which have been ignored for so long,” said Zhang Xiaoming, a researcher at the Institute. “What is especially remarkable is their newly discovered capacity to act as antigen-presenting cells, gathering T cells against cancer. In addition, the abundance of antigen-presenting neutrophils is associated with improved condition across many cancer types revealed in this study,” he said.
“This completely changes how we perceive neutrophils in the context of cancer,” said Gao Qiang, a professor at Fudan University. “Now we know we could employ the diverse hidden identities of neutrophils to strengthen the effectiveness of immunotherapy (免疫疗法). We’re thrilled to further explore the potential benefits of these newly uncovered mechanisms in clines.”
The study emphasizes the value of single-cell sequencing approaches to reveal new functional dimension even within seemingly well-understood immune cells. Tapping into the hidden potential of neutrophils may provide new insights into cancer diagnosis and treatment.
32. How was the anti-cancer function of neutrophils discovered?
A. By referring to previous research.
B. By collecting and analyzing data.
C. By seeking guidance from experts.
D. By observing patients with inflammation.
33. Which of the following is a function of neutrophils?
A. Getting together T cells when needed.
B. Preventing the formation of antigens.
C. Speeding up the blood flow.
D. Distinguishing different types of cancer.
34. What’s Gao Qiang’s attitude towards the new research?
A. Positive. B. Doubtful. C. Worried. D. Unclear.
35. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Blood Cells Successfully Fight Against Severe Cancer
B. China Makes Great Progress in Fighting Against Diseases
C. Further Research Is Needed to Fight Against Cancer
D Researchers Discover New Cancer-fighting Mechanism

Every week I save all the change and $1 bills I have in my purse. Then every Christmas I cash it in for as many $100 bills as the saved money gets me. I then wait for a family in need. I split the money in half and give half to the family in need and the other half to my nine-year-old son Say’ Veon, who puts it in his savings account, to teach him about delayed satisfaction. Then he helps me get gifts or give the money to the family.
I adopted Say’ Veon after his mother, a close friend of mine, passed away from cancer before his fifth birthday. Even though Say’ Veon has dealt with great loss and sadness at such a young age, his generous spirit and loving heart shine through. He has given money to someone else who needs it more, such as his friends or classmates. Say’ Veon’s acts of kindness always blow me away and I feel blessed to have him in my life.
This week I got a call from a friend, DeeDee, who is 77 years old. She was upset because she had been cheated, and the cheaters took all the money out of her checking account which she lives on, and now she didn’t have the money to pay her rent and bills.
This morning, I took the money and showed Say’ Veon how much I saved this year. I told him what happened to DeeDee, and then asked him if he would be willing to give his half along with my half and donate it to her as our person in need this year.
He said, “Yes, of course.” This year our total was $400.
We went to visit DeeDee and my son handed her a Christmas card with the money. She opened it and said, “Thank you.” She then looked again and stared at the $100 bills.
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。
DeeDee froze there with her eyes wide open.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Suddenly, Say’ Veon said to DeeDee, “You are our family!”
