Kenyon Scudder once told me a story about his friend, Michael. Michael happened to be on a train sitting next to a young man who seemed worried. Finally the young man told Michael that he was a convict (罪犯) returning home from a distant prison. His behaviour had brought shame (羞耻) on his family, and they had neither visited him nor written. He hoped, however, that this was only because they were too poor to travel and too busy to write.
When he was set free, he had written to tell them he wanted to go home. To make matters easy for them, however, he had asked them to put up a signal for him when the train passed their little farm. If the family had forgiven him, they were to put up a white ribbon (丝带) in the big apple tree near the railway. If they didn’t want him back, they were to do nothing, and he would stay on the train, and go far away.
As the train neared his hometown his suspense became so great that he was afraid to look out of the window. He asked Michael to watch for the big apple tree. They changed seats. In a minute, Michael put his hand on the young convict’s shoulder. “There it is,” he said, his eyes filled with sudden tears. “It’s all right. The whole tree is white with ribbons.”
4. For which of the following reasons might the young man be worried?
A. He might not be allowed to go home.
B He was afraid his family would not remember him.
C. His family hadn’t written to him often.
D. His family hadn’t visited him for a long time.
5. According to the passage, the white ribbon in the big apple tree means ________.
A. pleasure B. forgiveness C. happiness D. education
6. The word “suspense” underlined in the last paragraph can best be replaced by “________”.
A. pain B. interest C. worry D. happiness
7. Which of the following is the best title for the text ?
A. The ribbons in the big apple tree B. A journey on a train
C. The story of Michael D. The scenery along the railway
Vacation is a time for refreshment. In work, we are often called to think. Sometimes, it’s good to give our brains a rest. Without a break, we may not be able to perform up to our potential. This can be a problem, not only for the employee, but for the employer as well.
“The main benefit of vacation is for the worker to come back energized,” says Weaver. “If they haven’t had a break, then they’re not coming back with new energy. They haven’t had a chance to step back and get perspective (远景), and come back with renewed enthusiasm.”
Long working hours without a break, insecurity (不安) about one’s job, and other work-related worries can lead to burnout and stress. Humans can usually adapt to pressure, but not for a limitless amount of time.
“It is a problem of relating good workers and having them loyal to the firm while they’re there,” says David Maume, PhD, professor of sociology at the University of Cincinnati. He says burnout can also affect employees’ productivity, creativity, and effectiveness.
In addition, high levels of stress are likely to be precursors (前兆) to depression, which can hit both the employer and employee’s pocketbook. Even people who manage to remain productive at work can have problems. If they’re always at work, then they’re not with their family and friends. If they’re working while on vacation, for the time that they’re on the job, they’re not really present.
An unbalanced emphasis on work can strain family and social life. When you come up for air, you may see that you’re alone, or that your relationships have gone on without you.
8. What’s the main benefit of a vacation?
A. The manager can be more creative.
B. The worker can come back with new energy.
C. The worker can adapt to pressure much better.
D. The worker can step back and get more excited.
9. The underlined word “there” in the fourth paragraph probably refers to ________.
A. the home B. the vacation
C. the company D. the university
10. When a worker is always at work, he is likely to get more and more _________.
A. dynamic B. productive
C. skillful D. absent-minded
11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. Why Workers Need Vacation
B. Why Workers Need New Energy
C. How to Deal with Daily Pressure
D. How to Spend Vacation Effectively
Remember when your mom told you not to eat too many candy bars or sweets because they can cause tooth decay (蛀牙)? However, it turns out that chocolate can be more salutary to your teeth than you might expect. Recent studies show that chocolate can effectively fight against tooth decay, as if we need another excuse to eat chocolate.
Chocolate offers protection like fluoride, a main ingredient in most household toothpastes. Not only does chocolate protect our teeth, but it can do so very effectively. Studies show that chocolate has compounds that provide strong protection for teeth. One of the compounds in chocolate, CBH, is shown to protect even more effectively than fluoride.
Tooth decay happens when bacteria work to turn sugar into acids in our mouth. This is why eating foods with high sugar content can lead to more tooth decay. The compounds in chocolate, however, are anti-bacteria and can fight against bacteria in your mouth. The CBH compound in particular also works to strengthen tooth enamel (牙釉质), and protects against tooth decay.
Does this mean you can cat as much chocolate as you want without worrying about your teeth? It depends on the types of chocolate that you like. The protective effect of chocolate is most effective when you chew on cocoa beans. Of course, this option is not very appealing to; most people. A more tasty option is to choose dark chocolate with little sugar content, ideally no more than 6 to 8 grams per serving. For other types of chocolate with higher sugar content, the effect will be lessened. However, because of the protective compounds, it is still better for your teeth than other sweets and desserts containing the same amount of sugar.
12. The word “salutary” in paragraph 1 means?
A. Beneficial. B. Harmful. C. Familiar. D. Useless.
13. What can we know about the compound CBH in chocolate?
A. It can help chocolate cure tooth decay.
B. It can effectively stop teeth from decaying.
C. It may protect teeth better than toothpastes do.
D. It may soon replace most household toothpastes.
14. How does chocolate fight tooth decay?
A. By breaking down acids. B. By building up compounds.
C. By fixing up tooth enamel. D. By fighting against bacteria.
15. What's the main idea of the text?
A. Chocolate plays the role of toothpaste.
B. Chocolate protects against tooth decay.
C. Chocolate is the best choice for teeth protection.
D. Chocolate is healthier to teeth than other sweets.

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Race walking shares many fitness benefits with running, research shows, while most likely contributing to fewer injuries. ____16____.
____17____. The longest track and field event at the Summer Olympics is the 50-kilometer race walk which is about five miles longer than the marathon. But the sport’s rules require that a race walker’s knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and one foot remain in contact (接触) with the ground at all times. ____18____, however, says Jaclyn Norberg, an assistant professor of exercise science at Salem State University in Salem, Mass.
____19____, she says, According to most calculations, race walkers moving at a pace of six miles per hour would burn about 800 calories(卡路里) per hour, which is approximately twice as many as they would burn walking, although fewer than running, which would probably burn about 1,000 or more calories per hour.
However, race walking does not pound the body as much as running does, Dr. Norberg says. According to her research, ____20____, who do not leave the ground, create only about 1.4 times their body weight with each step.
As a result, she says, some of the injuries associated with running, such as runner’s knee, are uncommon among race walkers. But the sport’s strange form does place considerable stress on the ankles and hips, so people with a history of such injuries might want to be cautious in adopting the sport. In fact, anyone wishing to try race walking should probably first consult a coach or experienced racer to learn proper technique, she says. It takes some practice.
A. Race walkers are conditioned athletes
B. Like running, race walking is physically demanding
C. Having a medical checkup
D. It does, however, have its won problem.
E. It’s this strange form that makes race walking such an attractive activity.
F. It’s less likely to cause knee injuries
G. runners hit the ground with as much as four times their body weight per step, while race walkers

Every student wanted to be in the choir during high school. I chose show choir (dancing and singing). The other day I took part in the audition (试唱) held by the high school choir director.

47. 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。
Javon was the shortest kid in the class. It had been that way since the third grade. He’d had to ask to get his gym locker changed so that he didn’t have to struggle so much to reach it. For most kids, being short would be a problem, but Javon didn’t let being short bother him at all.
That was Javon’s attitude about most things except school work. And Javon had worked hard. By the middle of seventh grade, Javon was one of the top kids in the class. So, he hadn’t been too concerned when Mr. T announced they were starting a new unit in math. For Javon, math used to be easy. He figured that since he had ten fingers, he could do most of it. But when Mr. T threw letters into math problems, he couldn’t wrap his mind around using these letters. Mr. T had given them all sorts of rules for what to do when there were letters in math problems. But Javon couldn’t remember what they all were and he didn’t think he even understood the rules he did remember. Soon he was hopelessly lost in math class. Even worse, it was time for the class to take the chapter test.
The test was quite demanding. Javon was confused by the very first question. He was nervous and kept losing track of what he was doing. When the class period ended, he hadn’t finished all of the problems.
The day came when the class finally got their papers back. Seeing “D” written in red in k on the corner of the paper, he felt desperate. In the seat next to him, Tyler sighed slightly, catching Javon’s attention. He couldn’t help but see the big, red “C” on Tyler’s paper. He felt so upset.
When they started packing up to leave after class, Tyler accidentally told Javon he got extra time on all the math tests. Upon hearing this, Javon burst out, “It was unfair!” He dropped his books, face hot.
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。
At this very moment, Mr. T came up to see what happened to them.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Eventually, Javon came to understand Tyler had a reading disorder and began to reflect on why he himself struggles with math.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

When he was set free, he had written to tell them he wanted to go home. To make matters easy for them, however, he had asked them to put up a signal for him when the train passed their little farm. If the family had forgiven him, they were to put up a white ribbon (丝带) in the big apple tree near the railway. If they didn’t want him back, they were to do nothing, and he would stay on the train, and go far away.
As the train neared his hometown, his suspense became so great that he was afraid to look out of the window. He asked Michael to watch for the big apple tree. They changed seats. In a minute, Michael put his hand on the young convict’s shoulder. “There it is,” he said, his eyes filled with sudden tears. “It’s all right. The whole tree is white with ribbons.”
4. For which of the following reasons might the young man be worried?
A. He might not be allowed to go home.
B. He was afraid his family would not remember him.
C. His family hadn’t written to him often.
D. His family hadn’t visited him for a long time.
5. According to the passage, the white ribbon in the big apple tree means ________.
A. pleasure B. forgiveness C. happiness D. education
6. The word “suspense” underlined in the last paragraph can best be replaced by “________”.
A. pain B. interest C. worry D. happiness
7. Which of the following is the best title for the text ?
A. The ribbons in the big apple tree B. A journey on a train
C. The story of Michael D. The scenery along the railway
【答案】4. A 5. B 6. C 7. A

【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了曾经是罪犯的年轻人刑满释放回家,担心家人是否会原谅自己,最终发现家人在苹果树上挂满了代表原谅的白丝带。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“To make matters easy for them, however, he had asked them to put up a signal for him when the train passed their little farm. If the family had forgiven him, they were to put up a white ribbon in the big apple tree near the railway. If they didn’t want him back, they were to do nothing, and he would stay on the train, and go far away.(然而,为了方便他们,他让他们在火车经过他们的小农场时给他挂个信号。如果家人原谅了他,他们将在铁路附近的大苹果树上系一条白丝带。如果他们不想让他回来,他们就什么也不做,他会留在火车上,远走高飞。)”可知,年轻人让家人在苹果树上挂信号,是为了知道家人是否允许自己回家,所以年轻人担心的是自己可能不被允许回家。故选A项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“If the family had forgiven him, they were to put up a white ribbon in the big apple tree near the railway.(如果家人原谅了他,他们将在铁路附近的大苹果树上系一条白丝带。)”可知,大苹果树上的白丝带意味着家人原谅了年轻人,所以白丝带意味着原谅。故选B项。
【6题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“Michael happened to be on a train sitting next to a young man who seemed worried.(迈克尔碰巧坐在火车上,旁边坐着一个看起来很担心的年轻人。)”以及最后一段“As the train neared his hometown, his suspense became so great that he was afraid to look out of the window.(当火车接近他的家乡时,他的suspense变得如此之大,以至于他不敢往窗外看。)”可知,这个年轻人是很担心的,在接近家乡时,担心的感觉变得更加强烈,以至于不敢往窗外看,推测划线单词表示“担心”,与worry同义。故选C项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“If the family had forgiven him, they were to put up a white ribbon in the big apple tree near the railway.(如果家人原谅了他,他们将在铁路附近的大苹果树上系一条白丝带。)”以及最后一段“It’s all right. The whole tree is white with ribbons.(没关系。整棵树都是白色的,上面系着丝带。)”可知,文中大苹果树上的白丝带代表了家人对于年轻人的原谅,所以“大苹果树上的白丝带”可以作为文章标题。故选A项。
Vacation is a time for refreshment. In work, we are often called to think. Sometimes, it’s good to give our brains a rest. Without a break, we may not be able to perform up to our potential. This can be a problem, not only for the employee, but for the employer as well.
“The main benefit of vacation is for the worker to come back energized,” says Weaver. “If they haven’t had a break, then they’re not coming back with new energy. They haven’t had a chance to step back and get perspective (远景), and come back with renewed enthusiasm.”
Long working hours without a break, insecurity (不安) about one’s job, and other work-related worries can lead to burnout and stress. Humans can usually adapt to pressure, but not for a limitless amount of time.
“It is a problem of relating good workers and having them loyal to the firm while they’re there,” says David Maume, PhD, professor of sociology at the University of Cincinnati. He says burnout can also affect employees’ productivity, creativity, and effectiveness.
In addition, high levels of stress are likely to be precursors (前兆) to depression, which can hit both the employer and employee’s pocketbook. Even people who manage to remain productive at work can have problems. If they’re always at work, then they’re not with their family and friends. If they’re working while on vacation, for the time that they’re on the job, they’re not really present.
An unbalanced emphasis on work can strain family and social life. When you come up for air, you may see that you’re alone, or that your relationships have gone on without you.
8. What’s the main benefit of a vacation?
A. The manager can be more creative.
B. The worker can come back with new energy.
C. The worker can adapt to pressure much better.
D. The worker can step back and get more excited.
9. The underlined word “there” in the fourth paragraph probably refers to ________.
A. the home B. the vacation
C. the company D. the university
10. When a worker is always at work, he is likely to get more and more _________.
A. dynamic B. productive
C. skillful D. absent-minded
11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. Why Workers Need Vacation
B. Why Workers Need New Energy
C. How to Deal with Daily Pressure
D. How to Spend Vacation Effectively
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。假期是一个养精蓄锐的好时间,在工作中,我们经常思考,放假后给了我们的脑筋一个休息的时间,这样的休假对雇主和员工都是有好处的。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。由第二段中““The main benefit of vacation is for the worker to come back energized,” says Weaver. “If they haven’t had a break, then they’re not coming back with new energy. (韦弗说:“休假的主要好处是让员工精力充沛地回来。” “如果他们没有休息,那么他们就不会带着新的活力回来)”可知,度假对工人来说的最大好处就是可以使工人们在度假回来后精力充沛。故选B项。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。由第四段中“It is a problem of relating good workers and having them loyal to the firm while they’re there (这是一个将优秀员工联系起来并让他们在there时忠于公司的问题)”可知,这是一个有关好员工和他们对公司的忠诚问题,也就是当他们在公司时,才会谈到对公司的忠诚,故there指的是the company。故选C项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。由倒数第二段中“If they’re working while on vacation, for the time that they’re on the job, they’re not really present. (如果他们在度假时工作,在他们工作的这段时间里,他们并没有真正在场)”可知,如果一个工人总是工作,在假期也工作,那他在工作时并没有真的工作,即人在心不在,也就是说他们心不在焉。故选D项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章主要介绍了假期休息对雇主,尤其是员工有好处,也就是解释了为什么要给工人假期的原因,故A项“为什么工人需要休假”作为标题合适。故选A项。
Remember when your mom told you not to eat too many candy bars or sweets because they can cause tooth decay (蛀牙)? However, it turns out that chocolate can be more salutary to your teeth than you might expect. Recent studies show that chocolate can effectively fight against tooth decay, as if we need another excuse to eat chocolate.
Chocolate offers protection like fluoride, a main ingredient in most household toothpastes. Not only does chocolate protect our teeth, but it can do so very effectively. Studies show that chocolate has compounds that provide strong protection for teeth. One of the compounds in chocolate, CBH, is shown to protect even more effectively than fluoride.
Tooth decay happens when bacteria work to turn sugar into acids in our mouth. This is why eating foods with high sugar content can lead to more tooth decay. The compounds in chocolate, however, are anti-bacteria and can fight against bacteria in your mouth. The CBH compound in particular also works to strengthen tooth enamel (牙釉质), and protects against tooth decay.
Does this mean you can cat as much chocolate as you want without worrying about your teeth? It depends on the types of chocolate that you like. The protective effect of chocolate is most effective when you chew on cocoa beans. Of course, this option is not very appealing to; most people. A more tasty option is to choose dark chocolate with little sugar content, ideally no more than 6 to 8 grams per serving. For other types of chocolate with higher sugar content, the effect will be lessened. However, because of the protective compounds, it is still better for your teeth than other sweets and desserts containing the same amount of sugar.
12. The word “salutary” in paragraph 1 means?
A. Beneficial. B. Harmful. C. Familiar. D. Useless.
13. What can we know about the compound CBH in chocolate?
A. It can help chocolate cure tooth decay.
B. It can effectively stop teeth from decaying.
C. It may protect teeth better than toothpastes do.
D. It may soon replace most household toothpastes.
14. How does chocolate fight tooth decay?
A. By breaking down acids. B. By building up compounds.
C. By fixing up tooth enamel. D. By fighting against bacteria.
15. What's the main idea of the text?
A. Chocolate plays the role of toothpaste.
B. Chocolate protects against tooth decay.
C. Chocolate is the best choice for teeth protection.
D. Chocolate is healthier to teeth than other sweets.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了巧克力能有效防止蛀牙的原理。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第一段第一句“Remember when your mom told you not to eat too many candy bars or sweets because they can cause tooth decay (蛀牙)?( 还记得你妈妈告诉你不要吃太多的糖块或糖果,因为它们会蛀牙吗?)”及第三句“Recent studies show that chocolate can effectively fight against tooth decay, as if we need another excuse to eat chocolate.(最近的研究表明,巧克力可以有效地防止蛀牙,就好像我们需要另一个吃巧克力的借口一样)”可知,巧克力对牙齿的保护作用主要归因于其本身含有的复合物,这就如同很多家庭使用的牙膏中所含有的护齿成分。由此推知,划线词salutary为“有益的”之意。故选A。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段最后一句“The CBH compound in particular also works to strengthen tooth enamel (牙釉质), and protects against tooth decay.(尤其是CBH化合物还可以加强牙釉质,防止蛀牙)”可推断,巧克力含有的一种复合物甚至比牙膏中的氟化物的护齿效果要好。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段第三句“The compounds in chocolate, however, are anti-bacteria and can fight against bacteria in your mouth.(然而,巧克力中的化合物是抗菌的,可以对抗口腔中的细菌)”可知,巧克力对抗蛀牙的原理主要是其含有的复合物能够对抗口腔中的细菌。故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据全文,特别是文章第一段“Recent studies show that chocolate can effectively fight against tooth decay, as if we need another excuse to eat chocolate.(最近的研究表明,巧克力可以有效地防止蛀牙,就好像我们需要另一个吃巧克力的借口一样)”及最后一段可知,文章主要介绍了巧克力有效防止蛀牙的原理,文中并未提到巧克力可代替牙膏等观点。故选B。

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Race walking shares many fitness benefits with running, research shows, while most likely contributing to fewer injuries. ____16____.
____17____. The longest track and field event at the Summer Olympics is the 50-kilometer race walk, which is about five miles longer than the marathon. But the sport’s rules require that a race walker’s knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and one foot remain in contact (接触) with the ground at all times. ____18____, however, says Jaclyn Norberg, an assistant professor of exercise science at Salem State University in Salem, Mass.
____19____, she says, According to most calculations, race walkers moving at a pace of six miles per hour would burn about 800 calories(卡路里) per hour, which is approximately twice as many as they would burn walking, although fewer than running, which would probably burn about 1,000 or more calories per hour.
However, race walking does not pound the body as much as running does, Dr. Norberg says. According to her research, ____20____, who do not leave the ground, create only about 1.4 times their body weight with each step.
As a result she says, some of the injuries associated with running, such as runner’s knee, are uncommon among race walkers. But the sport’s strange form does place considerable stress on the ankles and hips, so people with a history of such injuries might want to be cautious in adopting the sport. In fact, anyone wishing to try race walking should probably first consult a coach or experienced racer to learn proper technique, she says. It takes some practice.
A. Race walkers are conditioned athletes
B. Like running, race walking is physically demanding
C. Having a medical checkup
D. It does, however, have its won problem.
E. It’s this strange form that makes race walking such an attractive activity.
F. It’s less likely to cause knee injuries
G. runners hit the ground with as much as four times their body weight per step, while race walkers
【答案】16. D 17. A 18. E 19. B 20. G
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了竞走运动员的要求,消耗以及对身体的冲击力。
【16题详解】
根据前文“Race walking shares many fitness benefits with running, research shows, while most likely contributing to fewer injuries.(研究表明,竞走与跑步有许多健身益处,但很可能造成的伤害更少。)”且下文讲述的是竞走和跑步的各自问题,可猜测,空格是引出下文的问题。D选项“It does, however, have its won problem.(然而,它确实有它自己的问题。)”符合题意,故选D。
【17题详解】
根据后文“The longest track and field event at the Summer Olympics is the 50-kilometer race walk, which is about five miles longer than the marathon.(夏季奥运会上最长的田径项目是50公里竞走,比马拉松长约5英里。)”可知,竞走运动员要求很高,是需要一定条件的。A选项“Race walkers are conditioned athletes(竞走运动员是有条件的运动员)”符合题意,故选A。
【18题详解】
根据前文“But the sport’s rules require that a race walker’s knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and one foot remain in contact (接触) with the ground at all times.(但这项运动的规则要求竞走运动员的膝盖在大部分摆动腿的过程中保持直,一只脚始终与地面保持接触。)”且下文“however, says Jaclyn Norberg, an assistant professor of exercise science at Salem State University in Salem, Mass.(然而,马萨诸塞州塞勒姆州立大学运动科学助理教授诺伯格说。)”可知,前后句意发生转折,空格处讲述的是竞走的好处。E选项“It’s this strange form that makes race walking such an attractive activity.(这是这种奇怪的形式,使竞走如此吸引人的活动。)”符合题意,故选E。
【19题详解】
根据下文“According to most calculations, race walkers moving at a pace of six miles per hour would burn about 800 calories(卡路里) per hour, which is approximately twice as many as they would burn walking(据计算,大部分比赛步行者移动速度每小时6英里每小时消耗800卡路里,这大约是两倍他们会燃烧走路,虽然不到跑步)”可知,竞走很耗体力。B选项“Like running, race walking is physically demanding(和跑步一样,竞走对体力要求很高)”符合题意,故选B。
【20题详解】
根据前文“However, race walking does not pound the body as much as running does, Dr. Norberg says.(然而,竞走对身体的冲击并不像跑步那么大,诺伯格博士说。)”可知,本段讲述的是竞走对身体的冲击力。G选项“runners hit the ground with as much as four times their body weight per step, while race walkers(跑步者每一步落地时的重量是其体重的四倍,而竞走者则是如此)”符合题意,故选G。

考查不定式。句意:同上。短语expect +sb/sth+ to do,意为“期盼某人/某事……”,不定式为宾语补足语,本句是被动语态,所以应用不定式作主语补足语。故填to bring。
【45题详解】
考查介词。句意:中国物联网市场的年平均增长率将达到 13.3%,至 2020 年,将达到 3610 亿美金。短语grow by,意为“增长了”,符合句意,故填by。

第二节(满分 25 分)
47. 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。
Javon was the shortest kid in the class. It had been that way since the third grade. He’d had to ask to get his gym locker changed so that he didn’t have to struggle so much to reach it. For most kids, being short would be a problem, but Javon didn’t let being short bother him at all.
That was Javon’s attitude about most things except school work. And Javon had worked hard. By the middle of seventh grade, Javon was one of the top kids in the class. So, he hadn’t been too concerned when Mr. T announced they were starting a new unit in math. For Javon, math used to be easy. He figured that since he had ten fingers, he could do most of it. But when Mr. T threw letters into math problems, he couldn’t wrap his mind around using these letters. Mr. T had given them all sorts of rules for what to do when there were letters in math problems. But Javon couldn’t remember what they all were and he didn’t think he even understood the rules he did remember. Soon he was hopelessly lost in math class. Even worse, it was time for the class to take the chapter test.
The test was quite demanding. Javon was confused by the very first question. He was nervous and kept losing track of what he was doing. When the class period ended, he hadn’t finished all of the problems.
The day came when the class finally got their papers back. Seeing “D” written in red in k on the corner of the paper, he felt desperate. In the seat next to him, Tyler sighed slightly, catching Javon’s attention. He couldn’t help but see the big, red “C” on Tyler’s paper. He felt so upset.
When they started packing up to leave after class, Tyler accidentally told Javon he got extra time on all the math tests. Upon hearing this, Javon burst out, “It was unfair!” He dropped his books, face hot.
注意:

Eventually, Javon came to understand Tyler had a reading disorder and began to reflect on why he himself struggles with math.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 At this very moment, Mr. T came up to see what happened to them. Javon, still feeling frustrated, complained loudly about the unfairness of Tyler receiving additional time for all the math tests. Tyler looked embarrassed and ducked his head, speechless and a little bit ashamed. Mr. T, in a clam voice, explained with patience that Tyler had suffered from a problem — reading disorder, which caused him to have trouble completing the test within the given time. “Occasionally, what we require is just additional assistance. And it’s okay to ask for help.” Mr. T remarked with a comforting smile on his face.
Eventually, Javon came to understand Tyler had a reading disorder and began to reflect on why he himself struggles with math. He felt remorseful for his outburst and apologized to both Mr. T and Tyler. Upon contemplating his own struggles with math, Javon came to the realization that everyone faces their own distinct challenges. Therefore, he resolved to seek help from Mr. T after class, who patiently explained the rules and concepts that had confused him. With persistent effort and great determination, Javon experienced gradual enhancement in his math proficiency, just as he had overcome other obstacles in his life.
【解析】
【导语】文章以人物为线索展开,讲述了Javon是班里成绩最好的孩子之一,所以,当T老师宣布他们要开设一个新的数学单元时,他并没有太担心。但是在学习新的单元时候,他迷失了方向,记不清规则,导致他在测试的时候得到的成绩是“D”,当他看到Tyler的成绩是“C”而且得知Tyler所有的数学考试都有额外的时间时,他觉得不公平。
【详解】1. 段落续写
①由第一段首句内容“正在这时,T先生走了过来,想看看发生了什么事。”可知,第一段可描写Javon抱怨不公平的原因以及Mr. T的解释。
②由第二段首句内容“最终,Javon明白了Tyler有阅读障碍,并开始反思为什么他自己在数学上挣扎。”可知,第二段可描写Javon向老师和Tyler道歉,并且通过寻求帮助和自己的努力提高了成绩的过程。
2. 续写线索:Javon感到沮丧——抱怨不公平——Mr. T耐心解释——Javon得知真相——Javon道歉——向Mr. T求助——努力学习——成绩提升
3. 词汇激活
行为类
意识到:come to the realization/be aware of/realize
决定:resolve to do/determine to do
向……寻求帮助:seek assistance from sb./turn to sb. for help
情绪类
感到沮丧的:frustrated/depressed
感到懊悔的:remorseful/compunctious/regretful
【点睛】【高分句型1】Mr. T, in a clam voice, explained with patience that Tyler had suffered from a problem — reading disorder, which caused him to have trouble completing the test within the given time. (运用了that引导的宾语从句以及which引导的非限制性定语从句)
