His father bought lots of recordings and DVDs of world-renowned classical musicians and symphony orchestras to ensure that his only son had as much exposure to music as possible. As a child, Yin learned to play the piano and the violin. Later, he gave up the latter and focused instead on the piano. Even then, he decided that he would become a conductor one day. “There can be over 100 musicians in an orchestra but there is only one conductor. The conductor is like the composer’s messenger, which is a magical experience,” he said. When he was 14, Chen Lin and Chen Bing, two conductors from the Central Conservatory of Music came to Kunming to choose students. Yin’s father allowed him to perform for them. Standing on the stage of the theater at the Yunnan Arts University, Yin raised his baton (指挥棒) and demonstrated how he would conduct to a recording of Dvorak’s Symphony No. 9 From the New World. Ten months later, he moved to Beijing and enrolled at the Middle School Affiliated (附属) to the Central Conservatory of Music and later studied at the university under Chen Lin. Since 2015, Yin has been chosen by the Central Conservatory of Music to participate in several master classes with conductors, among them South Korea’s Chung Myung-whun and Canada’s Yannick Nezet-Seguin. “There’s a huge gap between the training you receive in a conservatory and what is required of a professional conductor. The most basic thing is to build and expand my repertoire, and gain a deep understanding of each piece,” he says. “It is a skill that involves psychology, body language, knowledge of history, culture and music, and a sensitivity to everything that makes us human. And I have a long way to go.” 24. What can we learn about Yin Jiongjie from the first two paragraphs? A. His father excels at classical music. B. His father is a symphony conductor. C. He kept playing the piano and violin. D. He had a dream of being a conductor. 25. What does the underlined phrase “enrolled at” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Visited. B. Impressed. C. Joined. D. Applauded. 26. Which of the following is Yin’s idea according to the last paragraph? A. Better late than never. B. Rome wasn’t built in a day. C. The early bird catches the worm. D. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. 27. Which of the following best describes Yin Jiongjie? A. Talented and generous. B. Honest and trustworthy. C. Determined and humorous. D. Purposeful and hard-working. 【答案】24. D 25. C 26. B 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了音乐家尹炯杰的成长经历和他对音乐的热爱以及他的决心和努力。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段的描述“Even then, he decided that he would become a conductor one day.”（即使那样，他决定有一天他会成为一位指挥家。）可知，尹炯杰有一个成为指挥家的梦想。故选D。 【25题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第三段的描述“Ten months later, he moved to Beijing and enrolled at the Middle School Affiliated (附属) to the Central Conservatory of Music and later studied at the university under Chen Lin.”（十个月后，他搬到北京，并enrolled at中央音乐学院附属中学，后来在陈林的指导下在大学学习。）可知，他搬到北京，并进入中央音乐学院附属中学，后来在陈林的指导下在大学学习。所以enrolled at的意思是“加入”。故选C。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段的描述“And I have a long way to go.”（我还有很长的路要走。）可知，尹炯杰认为他还有很长的路要走，这与“罗马不是一天建成的”这句谚语的含义相符，故选B。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“As a child, Yin learned to play the piano and the violin. Later, he gave up the latter and focused instead on the piano. Even then, he decided that he would become a conductor one day.(小时候，尹就学会了弹钢琴和小提琴。后来，他放弃了后者，转而专注于钢琴。即使在那时，他也决定有一天要成为一名指挥家。)”可知，尹炯杰从小就对音乐有着深厚的热爱，并决定有一天他会成为一名指挥，由此可知，尹炯杰是一个有目标的人；根据最后一段中““There’s a huge gap between the training you receive in a conservatory and what is required of a professional conductor. The most basic thing is to build and expand my repertoire, and gain a deep understanding of each piece,” he says. “It is a skill that involves psychology, body language, knowledge of history, culture and music, and a sensitivity to everything that makes us human. And I have a long way to go.”(‘你在音乐学院接受的训练与专业指挥的要求之间存在巨大差距。最基本的是建立和扩大我的曲目，并对每首曲子都有深刻的理解。’他说：‘这是一种涉及心理学、肢体语言、历史、文化和音乐知识，以及对使我们成为人类的一切事物的敏感性的技能。我还有很长的路要走。’)”他认为自己在音乐学院接受的训练与专业指挥的要求之间存在巨大差距，他不断扩大自己的曲目，加深对曲子的理解，丰富各方面的知识，由此可知，他是一个很勤奋的人。故选D。 C As an adult, one of the first questions you are asked when meeting someone new is, “What do you do?” This is because your career is a very important part of who you are. The career you have defines your life, and so taking time to think about it is an essential exercise for young people. One of the most effective ways to get some insight on a possible career path is to complete a “career aptitude (才能) test”. There are many different kinds of career aptitude tests. Some ask questions about your personal interests and attitudes. Others focus more on asking you to rate different kinds of work scenarios (场景), like working as a librarian or a lawyer. Of course, while completing these sorts of tests, it is very important to be honest — and don’t worry — there are no right or wrong answers. One popular test asks the participants to grade their preferences for a variety of work tasks. Their answers are then analyzed and divided up between six different types of work personalities. The participant is then given a chart showing their score for each type of work personality. The top three scores are used to make a code that indicates the participant’s overall work personality. This code is then used to generate a list of career suggestions. The career suggestions are also based on your education and experience level, but you can look at higher-level careers as well, which is very useful for high school students. For example, you could look at the basic careers to see what work you might like now, and then look at the more advanced careers so you know what you may like to aim for in the future. This is a great tool to help plan your career and let you know what targets you need to reach to get there. In conclusion, career aptitude tests are clearly a very useful tool. So try a few tests online and start thinking about your future career right now! 28. Why does the author ask the question in paragraph 1? A. To support an idea. B. To introduce a topic. C. To define a profession. D. To clarify a new concept. 29. What can we learn about the career aptitude test? A. It determines your future career. B. It should be answered truthfully. C. It stresses the accuracy of test answers. D. It only cares about personal interests and attitudes 30. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The theory of coding. B. The advice on career planning. C. The variety of work personalities. D. The process of a career aptitude test. 31. What does the author suggest us doing? A. Changing our jobs frequently. B. Upgrading our levels of education. C. Following the career advice strictly. D. Pursuing advancement in our careers. 【答案】28. B 29. B 30. D 31. D 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了职业倾向性测试的重要性和作用，以及如何利用这种测试来规划自己的职业生涯。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“As an adult, one of the first questions you are asked when meeting someone new is, “What do you do?” This is because your career is a very important part of who you are. The career you have defines your life, and so taking time to think about it is an essential exercise for young people.”（作为一个成年人，当你遇到一个新朋友时，你被问到的第一个问题是：‘你是做什么的？’这是因为你的职业是你自身非常重要的一部分。你的职业定义了你的生活，所以花时间思考对年轻人来说是一项必要的锻炼。）可知，作者提出问题是为了引出文章的主题，即职业倾向性测试的重要性。故选B。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Of course, while completing these sorts of tests, it is very important to be honest — and don’t worry — there are no right or wrong answers.”（当然，在完成这些测试时，诚实是非常重要的——不要担心——没有正确或错误的答案。）可知，职业倾向性测试应该诚实地回答。故选B。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“One popular test asks the participants to grade their preferences for a variety of work tasks. Their answers are then analyzed and divided up between six different types of work personalities. The participant is then given a chart showing their score for each type of work personality. The top three scores are used to make a code that indicates the participant’s overall work personality. This code is then used to generate a list of career suggestions.”（一个流行的测试要求参与者对各种工作任务的偏好打分。然后对他们的回答进行分析，并将其分为六种不同类型的工作个性。然后给参与者一张图表，显示他们对每种工作个性的得分。前三名的得分被用来制作一个代码，表明参与者的整体工作个性。然后使用此代码生成职业建议列表。）可知，第三段主要描述了职业倾向性测试的过程。故选D。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段中“The career suggestions are also based on your education and experience level, but you can look at higher-level careers as well...For example, you could look at the basic careers to see what work you might like now, and then look at the more advanced careers so you know what you may like to aim for in the future.(职业建议也是基于你的教育和经验水平，但你也可以看看更高层次的职业……例如，你可以看看基本职业，看看你现在可能喜欢什么工作，然后看看更高级的职业，这样你就知道你将来可能喜欢的目标是什么。)”以及最后一段“In conclusion, career aptitude tests are clearly a very useful tool. So try a few tests online and start thinking about your future career right now!”（总的来说，职业倾向性测试显然是一个非常有用的工具。所以现在就开始尝试一些在线测试，开始思考你的未来职业吧！）可知，作者建议我们利用职业倾向性测试来规划我们的职业生涯，追求职业上的进步。故选D。 D The sun’s “sneeze” arrived as predicted! China’s National Center for Space Weather (NCSW) forecast geomagnetic activities (地磁活动) to occur from March 24 to 26. According to geomagnetic monitoring data, Earth experienced a geomagnetic storm that continued for 12 hours on March 25. Geomagnetic storms happen due to coronal mass ejections (CMEs，日冕物质抛射) during which some material from the sun’s outer layer makes its way to Earth. They can shoot out a huge amount of material and carry a strong magnetic field, which causes major changes in Earth’s magnetic environment. “Geomagnetic storms can disrupt radio waves and cause problems for ground communication and satellite signals,” Professor Cai Zheng from Tsinghua University told Xinhua. This can influence the accuracy of navigation (导航) systems and the quality of signals for phones and satellite TV. Strong geomagnetic storms can also impact power transmission systems, even resulting in power failure. To reduce the effects of geomagnetic storms, it’s recommended to power off unnecessary electronic devices, especially high-powered ones, to prevent damage or fire. Critical equipment and infrastructure (基础设施) also require special protective measures, including regular checks and data backups, noted Guangming Daily. Intense geomagnetic activity can also affect the migration and navigation abilities of animals. For instance, homing pigeons rely on Earth’s magnetic field for navigation during flight. Geomagnetic storms can affect their ability to find their way, making it difficult for them to return home. Despite these disruptions, what about the impact of such storms on humans? Shortly after the recent geomagnetic storm, the topic of “geomagnetic storms and sleep” trended on Sina Weibo with some internet users claiming that they had trouble sleeping. However, it was just a convenient excuse. “Geomagnetic storms don’t influence human health,” Zong Weiguo at China Meteorological Administration told Science and Technology Daily. 32. What can we learn from the first paragraph? A. Geomagnetic storms are caused by CMEs. B. Geomagnetic storms change the Earth’s environment. C. The Geomagnetic storm predicted by NCSW lasted 3 days. D. Some substances from the sun’s inner layer focus magnetic fields. 33. What effects may geomagnetic storms have? A. They make it difficult for people to sleep. B. They sharpen animals’ sense of direction. C. They force electronic devices power-off. D. They bring inconvenience to human life. 34. What measures are advised to minimize the impacts of geomagnetic storms? A. Deleting unnecessary data frequently. B. Avoiding driving out during that period. C. Checking important equipment regularly. D. Turning off the badly-needed electronics. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. Geomagnetic storms: Valuable natural activities. B. Geomagnetic storms: Uninvited guests from the sun. C. Geomagnetic storms: An unpredictable phenomenon. D. Geomagnetic storms: Convenient excuses for humans. 【答案】32. A 33. D 34. C 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了地磁暴的相关知识。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Geomagnetic storms happen due to coronal mass ejections (CMEs，日冕物质抛射) during which some material from the sun’s outer layer makes its way to Earth.(地磁暴的发生是由于日冕物质抛射（CME），在此期间，一些来自太阳外层的物质进入地球)”可知，地磁暴是由日冕物质抛射引发的。故选A。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的““Geomagnetic storms can disrupt radio waves and cause problems for ground communication and satellite signals,” Professor Cai Zheng from Tsinghua University told Xinhua. This can influence the accuracy of navigation(导航) systems and the quality of signals for phones and satellite TV. Strong geomagnetic storms can also impact power transmission systems, even resulting in power failure.(清华大学的蔡峥教授告诉新华社：“地磁暴会扰乱无线电波，给地面通信和卫星信号带来问题。”这会影响导航系统的准确性以及手机和卫星电视的信号质量。强烈的地磁暴也会影响输电系统，甚至导致停电)”可推知，地磁暴会给人类的生活带来不便。故选D。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Critical equipment and infrastructure(基础设施) also require special protective measures, including regular checks and data backups, noted Guangming Daily.(《光明日报》指出，关键设备和基础设施也需要采取特殊的保护措施，包括定期检查和数据备份)”可知，为了降低地磁暴的影响，建议要定期检查关键设备和基础设施。故选C。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“Geomagnetic storms happen due to coronal mass ejections (CMEs，日冕物质抛射) during which some material from the sun’s outer layer makes its way to Earth.(地磁暴的发生是由于日冕物质抛射（CME），在此期间，一些来自太阳外层的物质进入地球)”并结合下文内容可知，本文主要介绍了地磁暴的相关知识，而地磁暴是来自太阳外层的物质，由此可推测出，B项“地磁风暴：来自太阳的不速之客”最适合作本文标题。故选B。 第二节（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The Power of Meaningful Communication The foundation of any happy and successful relationship is good communication. ___36___ However, developing this skill requires both work and a readiness to be open to one another.

My Mom was always really busy with her work, and she didn’t spend any time with me anymore. I had to go to a daycare every day after school, eagerly waiting for Mom’s work to be done and picking me up. It was even a luxury to stay with her on Sunday. One day, at dinner time, I begged Mom to take me to the fair on Sunday. “Lilly you know I have to work that day.” Mom refused immediately. “But we never get to spend time together anymore! Can’t you take Sunday off?” I asked. Mom placed a plate in front of me and kissed my head. I smiled and licked my lips as she had given me a piece of cherry pie. Then I looked into my Mom’s brown eyes and asked one last time, “Can’t you take Sunday off?” Mom raised one eyebrow, staring at me. Maybe she didn’t want to make me disappointed and agreed that she would attempt to spare some time on Sunday. It was Sunday morning, and I ran to see if Mom was awake. She was making pancakes in the kitchen with her work clothes on. Mom felt my disappointed staring and tried to explain. She bent down next to me and put her hand on my shoulder, “Sorry, Lilly! I have to go to work today.” Tears streamed down my face as I yelled, “You never have time for me!” And I ran into my room and slammed the door. As I was crying on my bed I could hear Mom talk on the phone. She asked her friend Charlie to come over and watch me. Half an hour later, Charlie arrived and Mom left. I heard him knock on my bedroom door and say, “Lilly, your Mom made pancakes. Do you want to come out and have some?” “No!” I screamed. “Your Mom told me why you felt upset, and she left a note for you.” Charlie muffled. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Hearing Charlie’s words, I jumped off my bed and opened the door. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, the familiar sound of the car engine announced Mom’s returning. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Hearing Charlie’s words, I jumped off my bed and opened the door. Charlie led me into the kitchen table where Mom left me a plate of pancakes and a note. I grabbed the note and read it. Mom told me she was really sorry for not taking me to the fair and that she would come back home earlier and have dinner with me. Satisfied, I looked up and smiled at Charlie and told him what the note said. Then I poured some maple syrup on my pancakes and gobbled them all up. I waited for hours and hours for Mom to come home that day. Finally, the familiar sound of the car engine announced Mom’s returning. I rushed outside without delay, flying into Mum’s arms, and gave her a big hug. Mom grabbed me, embracing me so tightly that it was almost hard for me to breathe. “Mum, you’re always at work, and I’m tired of going to daycare every day after school.” Then I looked down and muttered, “Sometimes I think you like work more than me.” Mum shook her head firmly and said: “No! I Love you so much, Lilly!” I’ve decided to take weekends off, and... I’m taking you to the fair.” “Really? Mom, I Love you too, and you are the best Mom ever!” 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者的母亲很忙，没有时间陪伴作者，一天作者恳求母亲周日带作者去义卖会。但是母亲开始同意抽出一些时间来，但是周日早上因工作妈妈拒绝了作者的请求，作者很生气，跑回了房间，当作者躺在床上哭的时候，作者听到妈妈在打电话，她叫她的朋友查理过来照看作者。妈妈的朋友告诉作者妈妈给作者准备了早餐，并且留了便条。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“听到查理的话，我跳下床，打开了门”可知，第一段可描写作者作者看来纸条上的内容，作者很满意，吃了早饭。作者期待着妈妈能像所说的早点回家与作者一起吃饭。 ②由第二段首句内容“终于，那熟悉的汽车引擎声宣布妈妈回来了”可知，第二段可描写作者与妈妈的对话以及母亲决定带作者去义卖会和作者的心情。 2.续写线索：看了纸条——满意——妈妈回来——对话——答应去义卖会——作者的心情 3.词汇激活 行类 告诉：tell /inform 拥抱：embrace/hug 决定：decide/determine 喜欢：like/be fond of 情绪类 疲惫的：tired/exhausted 满意的：satisfied/content 【点睛】[高分句型1] Mom told me she was really sorry for not taking me to the fair and that she would come back home earlier and have dinner with me.

His father bought lots of recordings and DVDs of world-renowned classical musicians and symphony orchestras to ensure that his only son had as much exposure to music as possible. As a child, Yin learned to play the piano and the violin. Later, he gave up the latter and focused instead on the piano. Even then, he decided that he would become a conductor one day. “There can be over 100 musicians in an orchestra but there is only one conductor. The conductor is like the composer’s messenger, which is a magical experience,” he said. When he was 14, Chen Lin and Chen Bing, two conductors from the Central Conservatory of Music came to Kunming to choose students. Yin’s father allowed him to perform for them. Standing on the stage of the theater at the Yunnan Arts University, Yin raised his baton (指挥棒) and demonstrated how he would conduct to a recording of Dvorak’s Symphony No. 9 From the New World. Ten months later, he moved to Beijing and enrolled at the Middle School Affiliated (附属) to the Central Conservatory of Music and later studied at the university under Chen Lin. Since 2015, Yin has been chosen by the Central Conservatory of Music to participate in several master classes with conductors, among them South Korea’s Chung Myung-whun and Canada’s Yannick Nezet-Seguin. “There’s a huge gap between the training you receive in a conservatory and what is required of a professional conductor. The most basic thing is to build and expand my repertoire, and gain a deep understanding of each piece,” he says. “It is a skill that involves psychology, body language, knowledge of history, culture and music, and a sensitivity to everything that makes us human. And I have a long way to go.” 24. What can we learn about Yin Jiongjie from the first two paragraphs? A. His father excels at classical music. B. His father is a symphony conductor. C. He kept playing the piano and violin. D. He had a dream of being a conductor. 25. What does the underlined phrase “enrolled at” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Visited. B. Impressed. C. Joined. D. Applauded. 26. Which of the following is Yin’s idea according to the last paragraph? A Better late than never. B. Rome wasn’t built in a day. C. The early bird catches the worm. D. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. 27. Which of the following best describes Yin Jiongjie? A. Talented and generous. B. Honest and trustworthy. C. Determined and humorous. D. Purposeful and hard-working. C As an adult, one of the first questions you are asked when meeting someone new is, “What do you do?” This is because your career is a very important part of who you are. The career you have defines your life, and so taking time to think about it is an essential exercise for young people. One of the most effective ways to get some insight on a possible career path is to complete a “career aptitude (才能) test”. There are many different kinds of career aptitude tests. Some ask questions about your personal interests and attitudes. Others focus more on asking you to rate different kinds of work scenarios (场景), like working as a librarian or a lawyer. Of course, while completing these sorts of tests, it is very important to be honest — and don’t worry — there are no right or wrong answers. One popular test asks the participants to grade their preferences for a variety of work tasks. Their answers are then analyzed and divided up between six different types of work personalities. The participant is then given a chart showing their score for each type of work personality. The top three scores are used to make a code that indicates the participant’s overall work personality. This code is then used to generate a list of career suggestions. The career suggestions are also based on your education and experience level, but you can look at higher-level careers as well, which is very useful for high school students. For example, you could look at the basic careers to see what work you might like now, and then look at the more advanced careers so you know what you may like to aim for in the future. This is a great tool to help plan your career and let you know what targets you need to reach to get there. In conclusion, career aptitude tests are clearly a very useful tool. So try a few tests online and start thinking about your future career right now! 28. Why does the author ask the question in paragraph 1? A. To support an idea. B. To introduce a topic. C. To define a profession. D. To clarify a new concept. 29. What can we learn about the career aptitude test? A. It determines your future career. B. It should be answered truthfully. C. It stresses the accuracy of test answers. D. It only cares about personal interests and attitudes 30. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The theory of coding. B. The advice on career planning. C The variety of work personalities. D. The process of a career aptitude test. 31. What does the author suggest us doing? A. Changing our jobs frequently. B. Upgrading our levels of education. C. Following the career advice strictly. D. Pursuing advancement in our careers. D The sun’s “sneeze” arrived as predicted! China’s National Center for Space Weather (NCSW) forecast geomagnetic activities (地磁活动) to occur from March 24 to 26. According to geomagnetic monitoring data, Earth experienced a geomagnetic storm that continued for 12 hours on March 25. Geomagnetic storms happen due to coronal mass ejections (CMEs，日冕物质抛射) during which some material from the sun’s outer layer makes its way to Earth. They can shoot out a huge amount of material and carry a strong magnetic field, which causes major changes in Earth’s magnetic environment. “Geomagnetic storms can disrupt radio waves and cause problems for ground communication and satellite signals,” Professor Cai Zheng from Tsinghua University told Xinhua. This can influence the accuracy of navigation (导航) systems and the quality of signals for phones and satellite TV. Strong geomagnetic storms can also impact power transmission systems, even resulting in power failure. To reduce the effects of geomagnetic storms, it’s recommended to power off unnecessary electronic devices, especially high-powered ones, to prevent damage or fire. Critical equipment and infrastructure (基础设施) also require special protective measures, including regular checks and data backups, noted Guangming Daily. Intense geomagnetic activity can also affect the migration and navigation abilities of animals. For instance, homing pigeons rely on Earth’s magnetic field for navigation during flight. Geomagnetic storms can affect their ability to find their way, making it difficult for them to return home. Despite these disruptions, what about the impact of such storms on humans? Shortly after the recent geomagnetic storm, the topic of “geomagnetic storms and sleep” trended on Sina Weibo with some internet users claiming that they had trouble sleeping. However, it was just a convenient excuse. “Geomagnetic storms don’t influence human health,” Zong Weiguo at China Meteorological Administration told Science and Technology Daily. 32. What can we learn from the first paragraph? A. Geomagnetic storms are caused by CMEs. B. Geomagnetic storms change the Earth’s environment. C. The Geomagnetic storm predicted by NCSW lasted 3 days. D. Some substances from the sun’s inner layer focus magnetic fields. 33. What effects may geomagnetic storms have? A. They make it difficult for people to sleep. B. They sharpen animals’ sense of direction. C. They force electronic devices power-off. D. They bring inconvenience to human life. 34. What measures are advised to minimize the impacts of geomagnetic storms? A. Deleting unnecessary data frequently. B. Avoiding driving out during that period. C. Checking important equipment regularly. D. Turning off the badly-needed electronics. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. Geomagnetic storms: Valuable natural activities. B. Geomagnetic storms: Uninvited guests from the sun. C. Geomagnetic storms: An unpredictable phenomenon. D. Geomagnetic storms: Convenient excuses for humans. 第二节（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The Power of Meaningful Communication The foundation of any happy and successful relationship is good communication. ___36___ However, developing this skill requires both work and a readiness to be open to one another.

My Mom was always really busy with her work, and she didn’t spend any time with me anymore. I had to go to a daycare every day after school, eagerly waiting for Mom’s work to be done and picking me up. It was even a luxury to stay with her on Sunday. One day, at dinner time, I begged Mom to take me to the fair on Sunday. “Lilly, you know I have to work that day.” Mom refused immediately. “But we never get to spend time together anymore! Can’t you take Sunday off?” I asked. Mom placed a plate in front of me and kissed my head. I smiled and licked my lips as she had given me a piece of cherry pie. Then I looked into my Mom’s brown eyes and asked one last time, “Can’t you take Sunday off?” Mom raised one eyebrow, staring at me. Maybe she didn’t want to make me disappointed and agreed that she would attempt to spare some time on Sunday. It was Sunday morning, and I ran to see if Mom was awake. She was making pancakes in the kitchen with her work clothes on. Mom felt my disappointed staring and tried to explain. She bent down next to me and put her hand on my shoulder, “Sorry, Lilly! I have to go to work today.” Tears streamed down my face as I yelled, “You never have time for me!” And I ran into my room and slammed the door. As I was crying on my bed I could hear Mom talk on the phone. She asked her friend Charlie to come over and watch me. Half an hour later, Charlie arrived and Mom left. I heard him knock on my bedroom door and say, “Lilly, your Mom made pancakes. Do you want to come out and have some?” “No!” I screamed. “Your Mom told me why you felt upset, and she left a note for you.” Charlie muffled. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Hearing Charlie’s words, I jumped off my bed and opened the door. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, the familiar sound of the car engine announced Mom’s returning. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
