It was midafternoon.I looked outside my dorm window, and saw the lifeless gray sky, the snow and the trackless sidewalks.There was no one in the snow but a squirrel.The browngray North American squirrel,a look of terror in his shining eyes, braved the cold to throw himself over snow.In his mouth was a large acorn(橡实)—I was surprised it fit in his mouth.
I moved closer to my window, outside of which is a mediumsized tree, lacking its warmweather leaves.The squirrel ran up rapidly, higher and higher in the tree, and his small body held onto his dear acorn.
Up he went, to the tip of one of the highest branches.I held my breath—I wondered if that slender branch could support him.I wondered if his winter food store was in this tree—squirrels are known to hide their nuts, mushrooms, and vegetation high up in trees.Outside, the squirrel firmly grasped that branch, jaw clamping(夹紧) on his acorn.
Then came the wind blowing violently, shaking the tree, the branch and the squirrel.He hung on for dear life, and both arms wrapped around the branch in the wind.I held my breath: If he fell from a height like this, then...Seeing this little squirrel, I had my heart in my mouth.As the wind became stronger, the squirrel's precious acorn fell to the ground.The squirrel followed its downward progress only by sight—if he let go the branch, he would fall downwards as well.I was so nervous that I didn't take my gaze off the squirrel for one minute.Surprisingly, he then climbed down the tree and was now halfburied in the snow, searching desperately for his acorn.Finally, he made it.
The brave animal is able to survive in nature all because of its desperate efforts.The same goes for us humans.We all work hard to survive, and this is the law of nature.So effort is not something special, but a matter for all living things to do to survive.
[语篇解读] 这是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章讲述作者从窗外看到一只松鼠为了把橡果藏在树上,爬到了树顶。与此同时,狂风袭来,树、树枝和松鼠都摇晃起来。松鼠的橡果在狂风中被吹落到树下。但最终这只勇敢的动物凭借自己的毅力,爬下了树,拼命地寻找他的橡子,最后他成功了。通过这个故事可以看出:我们都是为了生存而努力工作。

6.What is the author's attitude to the squirrel in paragraph 4?
A.Concerned. B.Unfriendly.
C.Uncaring. D.Curious.
解析:A 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Then came the wind blowing violently,shaking the tree,the branch and the squirrel.He hung on for dear life, and both arms wrapped around the branch in the wind.I held my breath: If he fell from a height like this, then...Seeing this little squirrel, I had my heart in my mouth.(接着,狂风猛烈地吹来,树、树枝和松鼠都摇晃起来。他拼命地抓住树枝,两只胳膊在风中环绕着树枝。我屏住呼吸: 如果他从这么高的地方掉下来,那么……看到这只小松鼠,我的心都提到嗓子眼了。)”可知,当狂风猛烈吹来,树、树枝和松鼠都摇晃起来,松鼠拼命地抓住树枝。作者的心都提到嗓子眼了。可推知,作者对松鼠是担心的。故选A。

Imagine being able to pop to your local park and pick some tomatoes, potatoes or even bananas to take home for dinner.Sounds too good to be true, right? For residents of Andernach, German, it's not just a dream—it's their reality.
In 2010, Andernach began its edible(可食用的)city project, planting 101 varieties of tomatoes in public green spaces around the city centre.Its 30,000 residents are free to help themselves to whatever grows, as are any other visitors.The town's motto of sorts is “Picking is encouraged—help yourself!” Every year a new type of plant is highlighted.In 2011, 100 types of beans were planted, while 2012 saw the introduction of 20 onion varieties.
It's a community effort, as local citizens are encouraged to help plant and maintain the gardens.This offers an opportunity to socialise as well as to learn about planting, cultivating and harvesting food.
An Andernach resident spoke to DW,“I often drop by to pick some herbs that I'm missing at home.Everything is easily accessible.There aren't any fences.You just take what you need.The only thing is that you have to be quick once the fruits are ripe or they'll all be gone!”
Andernach may have been the first in German, but it isn't the only edible city.It's part of the Edible Cities Network, a project funded by European Union to connect green urban foot initiatives around the world.Other cities include Carthage in Tunisia, Havana in Cuba and SempeterVrtojba in Slovenia.In February 2022, the first Edible Cities Network Conference took place.Dr Ina Saumel, principal investigator of the Edible Cities Network, called it “a unique opportunity to invite researchers of edible city solutions and practitioners to the same table”.
Ultimately, the Edible Cities Network aims to give people “greener, more edible and, above all, more livable cities”.It is a response to the pressures of global climate change, and a significant cause full of hope.

Around the country and around the world, there is no shortage of human suffering.Poverty, disease, violence, hurricanes, wildfire and more are constantly troubling humanity, and even our best efforts thus far can't address all of everybody's needs.Many are looking for places to cut funding, and one of the first places that comes up in conversation is excessive spending on space exploration.What good is it to conduct microgravity experiments repeatedly when children are starving? Why launch so many spacerelated projects when nuclear war threatens our planet?
This is a line of thinking that has been coming up throughout history.Yes, it's shortsighted, in that it fails to recognize that our greatest problems require longterm investment, and that society's greatest advances come about through hard work, research, development of decades after that is made.Investing in science is investing in the betterment of humanity.
Over these years, much of the results of the space research have been adapted to be applicable to our daily lives.For example, NASA's advancements in the areas of robotics have given manufacturers an additional basis for the development of more advanced artificial limbs.Additionally, certain nutritional enrichment ingredients (成分) that were developed by NASA have been integrated into baby food formula.
Space technology has also helped improve economies.Within the next three years, the space exploration and space tourism industry are expected to be valued at 3 trillion USD.It is true that for every dollar we spend on the space program, the US economy receives about $8 of economic benefit.Space exploration can also serve as a motivation for children to enter the fields of science and engineering.
To many people, the idea of space travel may still seem far from practical.However, I believe that it is important that we keep going forward or we'll risk delaying further discoveries and technological advancements that will be beneficial for us.

Why launch so many spacerelated projects when nuclear war threatens our planet?(在全国乃至全世界,都不乏人类的苦难。贫困、疾病、暴力、飓风、野火等不断困扰着人类,即使我们迄今为止尽最大努力也无法解决所有人的需求。许多人都在寻找削减资金的地方,而在谈话中首先出现的地方之一就是太空探索方面的过度支出。在儿童挨饿的情况下反复进行微重力实验有什么好处?当核战争威胁我们的星球时,为什么要启动这么多与太空相关的项目?)”可知,一些人认为太空探索是浪费资源的。故选B。

“Bye, Mom! Don't forget to make my pie!” shouted 12yearold Jake after kissing his mother, Susan, goodbye.
He was anxiously waiting for the bus.Moments later, the bus pulled over, and Jake hopped in, assuming it was just going to be an ordinary ride to school.“Luckily, Mom gave me $6.Otherwise I'd have to walk all the way to school,” he thought.
The bus came to a stop, picking up Christel, a 56yearold woman from the next stop.She was smelly and looked dirty.Some passengers frowned at her, but she was least bothered about them.Moments later, she trembled through the crowd toward an empty seat next to Jake.
“Ticket, please?!” the conductor said loudly, staring at her.Christel's face slowly started to go red.“One second, I'm looking for my purse,” she replied.“I...uh...I don't have money.I forgot to bring my purse,” Christel stammered (结结巴巴地说), embarrassed.
“Lady, this is not a charity ride that picks up beggars for free.I'm stopping the bus right now.Get out!” yelled the conductor as the crowd of passengers turned toward Christel all at once.
Jake witnessed everything and was disappointed at how the conductor treated the poor woman.Then he remembered he still had some change.“Here is your $3...Give her a ticket,” he said to the conductor, throwing the money into his hand.
“Thank you, sweetheart.I am forever grateful to you! What is your name, dear?” said Christel.
“I'm Jake.That's okay.I just did what I should do,” replied Jake, taking Christel's words of gratitude casually.
They talked about Jake's school life.“I want to become a baseball player, but my school does not have such facilities.I don't want to trouble my mom.She's already working hard in the restaurant.My father passed away in an accident two years ago,” revealed Jake.
“Alright, Grandma! We've arrived at my school.I'll leave now.Byebye!”
Christel was touched by Jake's warm heart.She stared a second time at his school, watching him disappear inside the gate.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
The next day Christel paid a surprising visit to the school in her expensive car.
Jake didn't realize a bigger surprise was waiting for him outside the principal's office.
