作业(二) 语篇提能训练
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
The traditional Chinese solar calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms.Major Cold, or da han in Chinese, is the last solar term in the annual solar calendar.Here are some things about Major Cold.
Cold current
During Major Cold, as the cold current moves southward, the weather is often cold to the extreme.Though the related data in China show that the lowest temperature in a year is usually recorded during the Major Cold period, it may not be as cold as Minor Cold in most areas on the whole since spring is approaching.
Dispelling (驱散) cold
During Major Cold, the freezing weather has a big influence on Chinese people's lives.Rather than take up outdoor activities, people tend to reduce movements and choose to stay at home to keep fit in various ways.For example, to stay warm, people in Beijing have a habit of eating dispelling cold cake, a kind of rice cake that is thought good to warm and nourish.Besides, in Chinese, “rice cake” has the same pronunciation with the words “higher in a new year”, which symbolizes good luck and continual promotion.For another example, residents in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province like to drink nourishing chicken soup during Major Cold.
The ending and the beginning
Major Cold often coincides with the end of the year, so the folk customs of this period have an added sense of farewell to the old and welcoming the new.With the traditional Spring Festival around the corner, people are busy making preparations for it, like stocking up delicacies, sweeping and decorating.The cheerfulness of the reunion adds warmth to the cold winter days.

As a child growing up in a suburban town in the Northeast of the United States, the arrival of spring had little meaning for me.Sure, we had a weeklong spring vacation from school, but the key word there was vacation, not spring.
For the kids in my neighborhood, the arrival of spring was a non-event.There were two important seasons: winter, when we could go skating and sledding or build snow forts, and summer, when we could finally make proper use of the beach about 100 meter east of my family home.Spring and autumn were just technical details, weeks and weeks of waiting for the good times' return.
Admittedly, spring later developed its own attractions for me — “In the spring a young man's fancy turns to thoughts of love”, as a famous poet noted — however, it was not spring itself, but the other stuff that got my attention.
In short, I never thought much at all about spring ...and then I arrived in China.I had been in Beijing for about three months when my first Spring Festival rolled around, and it could hardly be ignored.Aside from the random bursts of fireworks at any time day or night, what stood out most for me was that the capital seemed to be empty.
It was as though the crowds and streams of cars and trucks commonly seen in the capital had all gone into hiding.My puzzlement cleared up when I returned to work.My colleagues explained that Chinese traditionally travel, if necessary, to visit their families during the Spring Festival, and that many Beijingers were not natives of the capital.
I also got my first knowledge of something about the Spring Festival that never ceases to amaze me.Regardless of when the holiday is set to begin, there is an almost immediate and sudden change for the better in the weather.Spring really does arrive.
I can't begin to figure out how the ancient Chinese could create a system that would almost always accurately predict when the season would shift year after year.But they did.

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。
In a small town, there lived a young girl named Emily. She had a deep passion for table tennis and dreamed of becoming a professional player. Despite her young age, she was determined to work hard and make her dream come true.
From the moment when Emily picked up a table tennis paddle, she was impressed by the sport. She spent every spare moment practicing her shots, focusing on her footwork and mastering different techniques. Each time she stepped on the court, she was eager to improve and pushed herself to the limit. Unluckily, Emily faced a visual impairment (缺陷) that threatened to slow her progress. She was born with a condition that affected her sight. Some people doubted her ability to play table tennis and said, “Emily, your impairment is a disadvantage. It is impossible to play table tennis well!”
But Emily refused to let their doubts consume her. With solid determination, Emily turned her impairment into strength. She used her other heightened senses to her advantage, relying on touch and sound to anticipate her opponents' moves. While others relied on sight, she developed an incredible sense of intuition (直觉) and strategy.
Emily finally excelled in table tennis, achieving incredible milestones and representing her town in many competitions. She became an advocate of the sport in her town. However, Emily decided not to settle for winning in her comfort zone but to challenge for something higher. She joined a training team guided by a world-class coach, which brought together the world's top table tennis players.
In the training team, Emily went through a series of trials. She carried out high-intensity training. She needed to improve not only the batting skills but also perseverance and the sense of teamwork. Her coach often encouraged her and said, “Anyone, regardless of ability, could find success.”
A few years later, Emily's efforts paid off. She got her chance. As a member of the national team, she took part in an important international competition. That was the stage for her to show her skills, and it was also the important moment for her to realize her dream.

参考范文:
In the competition, Emily found herself facing a strong opponent, Lily. Lily was known for her exceptional skills and had won numerous championships. It was intimidating, but Emily never backed down. Many viewers thought Emily was no match for Lily. As the match began, Emily gathered all her energy and put her training to the test. With each precise shot and swift movements, Emily surprised everyone, including Lily. It was a fierce battle. Finally, with a powerful serve, Emily sent the ball flying across the table. It grazed the edge and landed on the opponent's side, securing her victory.
After the competition, Emily's story spread throughout the table tennis community. She became an inspiration to other players, especially those born with defects. More and more players joined the team where she was training. And her coach was proud of her. When training new students, he always used Emily as a good example. “Emily's story teaches us that limitations can serve as a stepping stone to greatness. It reminds us not to let others define our potential. With a resilient spirit, we can achieve anything we set our hearts on, just like Emily did in the world of table tennis.”
