B A group of Chinese language students from Spain visited Malta for three days. They had a chance to enjoy themselves in the amazing Chinese cultural experiences there. At the Confucius Institute of the University of Malta on Saturday, the students from the Official School of Languages were attracted by traditional Chinese flute (长笛) performances, and Chinese tea making. Each of them was photographed trying on Hanfu, a form of traditional Chinese clothing. Despite their age differences, they all proved their dexterity (灵巧) at traditional Chinese works such as paper-cutting and knot-weaving. Maria Nieves, a group member, expressed her strong interest in Chinese culture, after two years of learning the language. “Despite the challenges, Chinese characters are truly beautiful,” she says. On Sunday, the group visited the Mediterranean Regional Center for Traditional Chinese Medicine in Paola, Malta. Under the guidance of a doctor, they practiced Ba Duan Jin, a set of exercises whose name translates as “eight steps to healthy living”. A lecture on TCM introduced them to treatments like acupuncture (针灸) and cupping, and some of the students had the chance to personally experience a treatment. Feng Hua, leader of the Chinese medical team, says that the TCM center is planning to host more students, who are interested in TCM and Chinese culture to take part in cultural exchange, and learn more about Chinese medical practice. During their visit to the China Cultural Center in Valletta on Monday, the students were drawn to the traditional Chinese lanterns hanging in front of the entrance, and also to the beautiful tea sets in the main hall. Yuan Yuan, director of the China Cultural Center in Malta, highlights the importance of cultural exchange in promoting friendship between nations. 4. What is the first destination of the students’ study visits? A. University of Malta. B. Official School of Languages. C. Mediterranean Regional Center. D. China Cultural Center. 5. How long had Maria Nieves been studying Chinese? A Six months. B. One year. C. Two years. D. Three years. 6. How many activities were experienced by the students in Paola, Malta? A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four. 7. What could be the best title for the passage? A. Wisdom of Chinese People B. An Amazing Language Learning Tour C. The Importance of Cultural Exchange D. Spanish Students Visit Malta for Cultural Experience C Parrots are prey animals, which means that other predators (捕食者) in the wild, such as hawks or snakes, are looking to make them into a meal. This one factor influences parrots’ behavior in your house more than any other. Parrots are most easily hurt when feeding on the ground. Membership in a group plays an important function in ensuring their safety and improving their chances of survival from attacks by predators. The most common predators of parrots include hawks, snakes, cats, monkeys, and bats. Some predators make attacks only during the day while others hunt in the night. As prey animals, parrots are constantly watching out for danger and they instinctively (本能地) react to risks. Their first choice is to take flight. However, if this is not possible, they will fight with their powerful beaks to defend themselves. Because their biggest enemy is the hawk, parrots are especially reactive to quick movements from above and behind. For this reason, it is wise to avoid quick, sudden movements near your bird. This is a built-in reaction not subject to logic or reason. Simple and relatively harmless household objects can draw extreme fear responses from a bird. For example, a balloon may represent a hawk or a vacuum hose (吸尘器软管) may be the same as a snake in your bird’s mind. As prey animals, parrots are often frightened by exposure to new household items or strangers. It is important to expose your bird to safe experiences and changes starting at a very young age to build flexibility and improve their adaptability. Variety in diet and toys, travel, and exposure to new people and places all help to make your bird more flexible and adaptable to change. 8. What is important for parrots to better survive from attacks in the wild? A. Living in a group. B. Growing beautiful feathers. C. Feeding on the ground. D. Avoiding coming out at night. 9. What is parrots’ first response to an immediate risk? A. To attack back. B. To get away. C. To protect the young. D. To play dead. 10. Why would a balloon frighten a parrot? A. It may explode suddenly. B. It may be in a strange shape. C. It may have a strong color. D. It may move around quickly. 11. What is the author’s purpose of writing the text? A. To explain wild parrots’ behavior. B. To give advice on raising a parrot. C. To call for action to protect animals. D. To introduce a study on bird ecology. D It is natural for young people to be critical of their parents at times and to blame them for most of the misunderstandings between them. They have always complained, more or less justly, that their parents are out of touch with modern ways; that they do not trust their children to deal with crisis; that they talk too much about certain problems; and that they have no sense of humor, at least in parent-child relationships. I think it is true that parents often underestimate their teenage children and also forget how they themselves felt when young. Young people often annoy their parents with their choices in clothes and hairstyles, in the entertainers and music. This is not their motive. They feel cut off from the adult world into which they have not yet been accepted. So they create a culture and society of their own. Then it turns out that their music or entertainers or clothes or hairstyles annoy their parents. This gives them additional enjoyment. At least in a small way, they are leaders in style and taste. Sometimes you are proud, because your parents can’t change what you do. If they do approve, it looks as if you are betraying (背叛) your own age group. But in that case, you are assuming that you are an underdog: you can’t win, but at least you can keep your honor. This is a passive way of looking at things. It is natural enough after long years if you were completely under your parents’ control in your childhood. But it ignores the fact that you should be responsible for yourself. From my teaching experience for ages, I want to give you young people the following advice that perhaps can help deal with the generation gap properly. If you plan to control your life, co-operation can be part of that plan. You can charm your parents into doing things the way you want. You can impress them with your sense of responsibility, so that they will give you the authority to do what you want to do. 12. What can we know from the young people's views in Paragraph 1? A. Parents are lacking in humor and like talking a lot. B. Parents always know much and keep pace with the times. C. Parents should be responsible for all the misunderstandings. D. Parents believe their children's ability to solve any problems. 13. What can be inferred about the young people in Paragraph 3? A. They find extra fun from their annoying actions. B. They are quite content to be away from the adult society. C. They make full use of their music to speed up their lives. D. They always annoy their parents in order to enjoy music. 14. Which of the following is the closest to the meaning of the underlined word “underdog” in Paragraph 4? A. Lovely dog. B. Failure. C. Partner. D. Looker. 15. What does the author do according to the text? A. A capable chef. B. A famous writer. C. A senior teacher. D. A trusted entertainer. 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。 Tricks To Becoming A Patient Person Here’s a riddle: What do traffic jams, long lines and waiting for a vacation to start all have in common?

Actually, celebrating my birthday in my grandparents’ home had been a family tradition. As a result, their neighbors, warm-hearted and friendly, were familiar with me. Sometimes, they even came to the house and brought me birthday gifts in person. We took the subway there as usual. When we got off the subway, I found I had lost my bag. The bag was memorable to me because it was given by my parents when I became a senior high school student. It also had some valuable items inside, including an expensive watch a birthday gift from my grandparents. I couldn’t help but cry because the bag meant so much to me.“What’s the matter. Lily?” my mom asked. I told her that I might leave the bag on the subway. Hearing that, she comforted me and said. “We have plenty of time. Let’s talk to the staff (工作人员).” Instantly, my parents reported the situation to the staff at the subway station. A kind worker smiled to me and said. “If someone found it, they would hand it in.” He asked us to wait patiently for a while, and then he called for help．After half an hour, the worker didn’t give us any information. I started to become anxious and lose hope. My father said. “No news is good news.”However, the worker finally apologized to us and let us wait for the information on the recovery of the missing bag at home. We had to go to my grandparents’ house first. In the afternoon, while I, together with my grandparents and my father, was preparing for a birthday party, I heard my mother talking to someone on the phone about my lost bag. My heart was beating violently, and I was expecting something extraordinary to happen. Sure enough, my mother got me to answer the phone, “Good news, Lily. The call is just for you, from the kind worker. He said a girl called Beatrice had sent the bag back.” I felt amazed that the girl’s name is the same as my friend’s in Sydney. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I took the phone, and then the voice of the worker who had helped us at the subwaystation came from it. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ My family and I were dancing happily when someone knocked at the door. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1-5.

This one factor influences parrots’ behavior in your house more than any other. Parrots are most easily hurt when feeding on the ground. Membership in a group plays an important function in ensuring their safety and improving their chances of survival from attacks by predators. The most common predators of parrots include hawks, snakes, cats, monkeys, and bats. Some predators make attacks only during the day while others hunt in the night. As prey animals, parrots are constantly watching out for danger and they instinctively (本能地) react to risks. Their first choice is to take flight. However, if this is not possible, they will fight with their powerful beaks to defend themselves. Because their biggest enemy is the hawk, parrots are especially reactive to quick movements from above and behind. For this reason, it is wise to avoid quick, sudden movements near your bird. This is a built-in reaction not subject to logic or reason. Simple and relatively harmless household objects can draw extreme fear responses from a bird. For example, a balloon may represent a hawk or a vacuum hose (吸尘器软管) may be the same as a snake in your bird’s mind. As prey animals, parrots are often frightened by exposure to new household items or strangers. It is important to expose your bird to safe experiences and changes starting at a very young age to build flexibility and improve their adaptability. Variety in diet and toys, travel, and exposure to new people and places all help to make your bird more flexible and adaptable to change. 8. What is important for parrots to better survive from attacks in the wild? A. Living in a group. B. Growing beautiful feathers. C. Feeding on the ground. D. Avoiding coming out at night. 9. What is parrots’ first response to an immediate risk? A. To attack back. B. To get away. C. To protect the young. D. To play dead. 10. Why would a balloon frighten a parrot? A. It may explode suddenly. B. It may be in a strange shape. C. It may have a strong color. D. It may move around quickly. 11. What is the author’s purpose of writing the text? A. To explain wild parrots’ behavior. B. To give advice on raising a parrot. C. To call for action to protect animals. D. To introduce a study on bird ecology. 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了鹦鹉作为被捕食动物的行为特性和生存策略。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Membership in a group plays an important function in ensuring their safety and improving their chances of survival from attacks by predators.(群体中的成员在确保其安全和提高其从捕食者袭击中幸存下来的机会方面起着重要作用。)”可知，鹦鹉要想更好地在野外躲避攻击，重要的是要进行集体生活，故选A项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“As prey animals, parrots are constantly watching out for danger and they instinctively (本能地) react to risks. Their first choice is to take flight.(作为猎物，鹦鹉会时刻警惕危险，并本能地对风险做出反应。他们的第一反应是飞走)”可知，鹦鹉对直接风险的第一反应是逃跑，故选B项。 10题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Because their biggest enemy is the hawk, parrots are especially reactive to quick movements from above and behind.(因为它们最大的敌人是鹰，鹦鹉对来自上方和后方的快速移动特别敏感。)” 和下文“This is a built-in reaction not subject to logic or reason.Simple and relatively harmless household objects can draw extreme fear responses from a bird. For example, a balloon may represent a hawk or a vacuum hose (吸尘器软管) may be the same as a snake in your bird’s mind.(这是一种不受逻辑或理性约束的内在反应。简单且相对无害的家居用品会引起鸟类的极度恐惧反应。例如，在你的鸟心目中，气球可能代表鹰，或者真空软管可能与蛇相同)”可知，气球能够吓到鹦鹉是因为气球可能移动速度快，让使鹦鹉联想到鹰，故选D项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Parrots are prey animals, which means that other predators (捕食者) in the wild, such as hawks or snakes, are looking to make them into a meal. This one factor influences parrots’ behavior in your house more than any other.(鹦鹉是猎物，这意味着野生的其他捕食者，如鹰或蛇，正在寻找将它们作为食物。这一个因素比任何其他因素都更能影响鹦鹉在家里的行为)”、倒数第二段“Simple and relatively harmless household objects can draw extreme fear responses from a bird. For example, a balloon may represent a hawk or a vacuum hose (吸尘器软管) may be the same as a snake in your bird’s mind.(简单且相对无害的家居用品会引起鸟类的极度恐惧反应。例如，在你的鸟心目中，气球可能代表鹰，或者真空软管可能与蛇相同)”以及最后一段“As prey animals, parrots are often frightened by exposure to new household items or strangers. It is important to expose your bird to safe experiences and changes starting at a very young age to build flexibility and improve their adaptability. Variety in diet and toys, travel, and exposure to new people and places all help to make your bird more flexible and adaptable to change.(作为猎物，鹦鹉经常被新的家庭用品或陌生人吓到。从很小的时候就开始让你的鸟接触安全的体验和变化，以建立灵活性并提高它们的适应性，这一点很重要。饮食和玩具的多样性、旅行以及接触新的人和地方都有助于让你的鸟更灵活，更适应变化)”可知，本文的写作目的是对饲养鹦鹉提建议，故选B项。 D It is natural for young people to be critical of their parents at times and to blame them for most of the misunderstandings between them. They have always complained, more or less justly, that their parents are out of touch with modern ways; that they do not trust their children to deal with crisis; that they talk too much about certain problems; and that they have no sense of humor, at least in parent-child relationships. I think it is true that parents often underestimate their teenage children and also forget how they themselves felt when young. Young people often annoy their parents with their choices in clothes and hairstyles, in the entertainers and music. This is not their motive. They feel cut off from the adult world into which they have not yet been accepted. So they create a culture and society of their own. Then it turns out that their music or entertainers or clothes or hairstyles annoy their parents. This gives them additional enjoyment. At least in a small way, they are leaders in style and taste. Sometimes you are proud, because your parents can’t change what you do. If they do approve, it looks as if you are betraying (背叛) your own age group. But in that case, you are assuming that you are an underdog: you can’t win, but at least you can keep your honor. This is a passive way of looking at things. It is natural enough after long years if you were completely under your parents’ control in your childhood. But it ignores the fact that you should be responsible for yourself. From my teaching experience for ages I want to give you young people the following advice that perhaps can help deal with the generation gap properly. If you plan to control your life, co-operation can be part of that plan. You can charm your parents into doing things the way you want. You can impress them with your sense of responsibility, so that they will give you the authority to do what you want to do. 12. What can we know from the young people's views in Paragraph 1? A. Parents are lacking in humor and like talking a lot. B. Parents always know much and keep pace with the times. C. Parents should be responsible for all the misunderstandings. D. Parents believe their children's ability to solve any problems. 13. What can be inferred about the young people in Paragraph 3? A. They find extra fun from their annoying actions. B. They are quite content to be away from the adult society. C. They make full use of their music to speed up their lives. D. They always annoy their parents in order to enjoy music. 14. Which of the following is the closest to the meaning of the underlined word “underdog” in Paragraph 4? A. Lovely dog. B. Failure. C. Partner. D. Looker. 15. What does the author do according to the text? A. A capable chef. B. A famous writer. C. A senior teacher. D. A trusted entertainer. 【答案】12. A 13. A 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。年轻人总是抱怨他们的父母与现代生活方式脱节、不相信子女应付危机的能力、对某些问题喋喋不休、缺乏幽默感等。作者的建议是年轻人可以用你的责任感和进取心打动父母。那样，他们才会允许你做你想做的事。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“They have always complained, more or less justly, that their parents are out of touch with modern ways; that they do not trust their children to deal with crisis; that they talk too much about certain problems; and that they have no sense of humor, at least in parent-child relationships. (他们总是或多或少地抱怨他们的父母与现代生活方式脱节，不信任孩子处理危机的能力，对某些问题谈论太多，至少在亲子关系中没有幽默感。) ”可知，从年轻人的观点中我们可以知道父母缺乏幽默感并且喜欢说很多话。选项A符合题意。故选A。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“This gives them additional enjoyment. At least in a small way, they are leaders in style and taste. (这给了他们额外的乐趣。至少在某种程度上，他们是风格和品味的领导者。) ”可以推断，年轻人从他们的烦人行为中找到了额外的乐趣。选项A符合题意。故选A。 【14题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第四段中“If they do approve, it looks as if you are betraying (背叛) your own age group. But in that case, you are assuming that you are an …: you can't win, but at least you can keep your honor.”(如果他们真的同意了，看起来你好像背叛了自己的年龄段。但在那种情况下，你假设自己是个……：你赢不了，但至少能保住你的荣誉。)”可知，此处上下文语境意在表明如果你按照父母的意愿行事，会让同龄人觉得你是背叛者，而你却认为自己虽败犹荣，因此划线词“underdog”在此处意为“失败者”。选项B符合题意。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中“From my teaching experience for ages, I want to give you young people the following advice(根据我多年的教学经验，我想给年轻人以下建议)”可知，作者是一名资深教师。选项C符合题意。故选C。 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。 Tricks To Becoming A Patient Person Here’s a riddle: What do traffic jams, long lines and waiting for a vacation to start all have in common? There is one answer. ___16___. In the Digital Age, we’re used to having what we need immediately and right at our fingertips. However, research suggests that if we practiced patience, we’d be a whole lot better off. Here are several tricks. ●Practice gratitude (感激) Thankfulness has a lot of benefits: Research shows it makes us happier, less stressed and even more optimistic. ___17___. “Showing thankfulness can foster self-control,” said Ye Li, researcher at the University of California. ● Make yourself wait Instant gratification (满足) may seem like the most “feel good” option at the time, but psychology research suggests waiting for things actually makes us happier in the long run. And the only way for us to get into the habit of waiting is to practice. ___18___. Put off watching your favorite show until the weekend or wait 10 extra minutes before going for that cake. You’ll soon find that the more patience you practice, the more you start to apply it to other, more annoying situations. ● ___19___. So many of us have the belief that being comfortable is the only state we will tolerate, and when we experience something outside of our comfort zone, we get impatient about the circumstances. You should learn to say to yourself, “___20___.” You’ll then gradually become more patient. A. Find your causes B. Start with small tasks C. Accept the uncomfortable D. All this adds up to a state of hurry E. It can also help us practice more patience F. This is merely uncomfortable, not intolerable G. They’re all situations where we could use a little extra patience 【答案】16. G 17. E 18. B 19. C 20. F 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了变得耐心的一些方法。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Here’s a riddle: What do traffic jams, long lines and waiting for a vacation to start all have in common? There’s one answer. (这里有一个谜语：交通堵塞、排长队和等待假期开始有什么共同之处？答案只有一个)”可知，本句说明上文谜语的答案，结合“交通堵塞、排长队和等待假期”这些情况可知都需要耐心。故G选项“在这些情况下，我们都需要一点额外的耐心”符合语境，故选G。 【17题详解】 根据上文“Thankfulness has a lot of benefits: Research shows it makes us happier, less stressed and even more optimistic.(感恩有很多好处：研究表明，感恩让我们更快乐，压力更小，甚至更乐观)”以及后文““Showing thankfulness can foster self-control,” said Ye Li, researcher at the University of California. (加州大学的研究员叶丽说：“表达感激可以培养自我控制能力。”)”可知，上文提到了感恩的诸多好处，可知本句继续说明感恩的好处：它还可以帮助我们练习更多的耐心。E选项中It指代上文Thankfulness。故E选项“它还可以帮助我们练习更多的耐心”符合语境，故选E。 【18题详解】 根据上文“And the only way for us to get into the habit of waiting is to practice. (我们养成等待习惯的唯一方法就是练习)”以及后文“Put off watching your favorite show until the weekend or wait 10 extra minutes before going for that cake. (把你最喜欢的节目推迟到周末再看，或者多等10分钟再去吃蛋糕)”可知，后文列举的事情都是日常的小事，说明要从小事开始练习等待，故B选项“从小任务开始”符合语境，故选B。 【19题详解】 根据本段内容“So many of us have the belief that being comfortable is the only state we will tolerate, and when we experience something outside of our comfort zone, we get impatient about the circumstances.

(然后你会逐渐变得更有耐心)”结合本段主要说明的是不舒服的状态，可知，本句为对自己所说的话与接受不舒服相关，故F选项“这仅仅是不舒服，而不是无法忍受”符合语境，故选F。 【点睛】 第三部分 语言运用(共两节, 满分30分) 第一节(共15小题; 每小题1分, 满分15分) 阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I was halfway across Indiana headed home to Kentucky when my car broke down.

With 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了年画作为一种古老的中国传统艺术制作过程以及它蕴含的丰富内涵。 【36题详解】 考查不定式。句意：中国人有贴画来庆祝传统春节的习俗。分析句子可知，动词celebrate和句子之后的其他成分一起充当目的状语，需要用动词不定式。故填to celebrate。 【37题详解】 考查副词。句意：这种风俗在广大的农村地区特别流行，每家每户都忙着打扫房子，在门、窗、墙和炉子上贴上彩色图画或剪纸。空格后面popular是形容词，修饰形容词需要用副词，需要将particular改成particularly来修饰popular。故填particularly。 【38题详解】 考查非限定性定语从句。句意：这种风俗在广大的农村地区特别流行，每家每户都忙着打扫房子，在门、窗、墙和炉子上贴上彩色图画或剪纸。分析句子可知，此处应用非限定性定语从句，先行词是 the vast countryside，关系词在从句中作地点状语，所以用关系副词where引导该定语从句。故填where。 【39题详解】 考查形容词。句意：这种风俗在广大的农村地区特别流行，每家每户都忙着打扫房子，在门、窗、墙和炉子上贴上彩色图画或剪纸。空格后的单词pictures（图画）是名词，修饰名词需要用形容词，需要把名词color改成形容词colorful。故填colorful。 【40题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：传统的年画，通常是用木版印刷的方法创作的，以线条简单、色彩鲜艳和场面繁荣著称。分析句子结构，本句已经有系动词are, 因此create不能充当谓语成分。主语New Year pictures和动词create之间是动宾关系，所以需要用过去分词，将create改成created，充当后置定语。故填created。 【41题详解】 考查主谓一致。句意 ：该方法包括几个步骤：绘图、版画、印刷和着色。短语consist of表示“由......组成”；句子的主语The method是单数，谓语动词用单数。故填consists。 【42题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：因此，成品画兼具木刻版画和中国画的特点，成为传统民间艺术的一个特殊分支。分析句子结构，句子中已有谓语动词have, make与其逻辑主语 The finished pictures之间是主动关系，所以make需要用现在分词making作状语。故填making。 【43题详解】 考查定冠词。句意：画中的人物经常会展现艺术的夸张感，但是在所有的图画中所传达的信息都是好运，幸福和其他人们所期盼的美好的事情。分析句子可知，此处应该用冠词，特指“大家都有共识的信息”，因此需要用定冠词the。故填the。 【44题详解】 考查名词。句意：画中的人物经常会展现艺术的夸张感，但是在所有的图画中所传达的信息都是好运，幸福和其他人们所期盼的美好的事情。分析句子结构，空格处前面是名词luck,空格后是并列连词or和名词other nice things,可知空格处需要用名词。形容词happy需改成happiness。故填happiness。 【45题详解】 考查介词。句意：伴随着印刷技术的提升，用于新年图画的新材料也越来越多。分析句子，此处需要用介词with加名词成分，起到伴随作用。故填With。 第四部分 写作(共两节, 满分40分) 第一节(满分15分) 46. 假定你是李华，在英国伦敦留学，得知当地某自然环境保护区正在招募志愿者。请你给其负责人写一封自荐信，内容包括： 1. 写信目的； 2. 个人优势； 3. 表达期待。 注意：1. 词数80左右； 2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 Dear Sir/Madam, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Sir/Madam, I am Li Hua, a Chinese student studying biology in London.

Actually, celebrating my birthday in my grandparents’ home had been a family tradition. As a result, their neighbors, warm-hearted and friendly, were familiar with me. Sometimes, they even came to the house and brought me birthday gifts in person. We took the subway there as usual. When we got off the subway, I found I had lost my bag. The bag was memorable to me because it was given by my parents when I became a senior high school student. It also had some valuable items inside, including an expensive watch a birthday gift from my grandparents. I couldn’t help but cry because the bag meant so much to me.“What’s the matter. Lily?” my mom asked. I told her that I might leave the bag on the subway. Hearing that, she comforted me and said. “We have plenty of time. Let’s talk to the staff (工作人员).” Instantly, my parents reported the situation to the staff at the subway station. A kind worker smiled to me and said. “If someone found it, they would hand it in.” He asked us to wait patiently for a while, and then he called for help．After half an hour, the worker didn’t give us any information. I started to become anxious and lose hope. My father said. “No news is good news.”However, the worker finally apologized to us and let us wait for the information on the recovery of the missing bag at home. We had to go to my grandparents’ house first. In the afternoon, while I, together with my grandparents and my father, was preparing for a birthday party, I heard my mother talking to someone on the phone about my lost bag. My heart was beating violently, and I was expecting something extraordinary to happen. Sure enough, my mother got me to answer the phone, “Good news, Lily. The call is just for you, from the kind worker. He said a girl called Beatrice had sent the bag back.” I felt amazed that the girl’s name is the same as my friend’s in Sydney. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I took the phone, and then the voice of the worker who had helped us at the subwaystation came from it. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ My family and I were dancing happily when someone knocked at the door. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 I took the phone, and then the voice of the worker who had helped us at the subwaystation came from it. He explained to me that, the kind girl, Beatrice, had picked up my bag on the subway and that she was sorry for not notifying the Lost and Found office in time. I felt infinitely grateful to him and the girl. When I hung up the phone, I circled with excitement. When my father soon fetched the bag, the birthday dinner was ready, and our family was seated at the desk, where we ate, talking and laughing. After dinner, we began to dance to the music. The house was full of harmony and warmth.   My family and I were dancing happily when someone knocked at the door. Grandma stopped dancing and went to open the door. She said “It must be a neighbor who wants to give you a gift, Lily.” In a moment, a beautiful girl entered the house with a bunch of flowers. “Happy birthday, Lily.” said she, my best friend, Beatrice. I warmly welcomed her. When she saw the bag on the sofa, she screamed, “The bag looks like the one I picked up this morning.” We confirmed it and thought it was a coincidence. I said with gratitude, “Thanks, Beatrice. Kindness is always around us.” 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了作者和父母坐地铁去祖父母家过生日时，不小心把自己的包遗落在地铁上，作者很伤心，当他们向地铁工作人员求助时，也没有获得结果，正当作者绝望时，工作人员告诉作者一位叫做Beatrice的女孩找到了她的包，并寄回给她，后来发现Beatrice就是作者在悉尼最好的朋友。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我接过电话，电话里传来了在地铁站帮助我们的工作人员的声音。”可知，第一段可描写工作人员告诉作者找到了她的包，并开心举行生日聚会。 ②由第二段首句内容“我和家人正高兴地跳舞，这时有人敲门。”可知，第二段可描写作者的朋友Beatrice 来给作者过生日，发现自己捡到的包就是作者的。 2. 续写线索：坐地铁——遗失包——找工作人员帮助未果——被人捡到寄回——发现找到包的是自己最好的朋友 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①通知：notify/inform ②进入：enter/step in ③尖叫：scream/yelp 情绪类 ①感激的：grateful/appreciative ②善良：kindness/goodness 【点睛】【高分句型1】He explained to me that, the kind girl, Beatrice, had picked up my bag on the subway and that she was sorry for not notifying the Lost and Found office in time. （运用了that引导的宾语从句） 【高分句型2】It must be a neighbor who wants to give you a gift, Lily.（运用了who引导的定语从句） 1-5.
