By the 1960s, plastic straws have become common. It is said that 500 million straws are used just in the United States each day. So what’s the problem? The problem is that plastics, including plastic straws that are usually thrown away after one use, end up in the world’s oceans. As many as 8.3 billion plastic straws pollute the world’s beaches and oceans. There are many choices for people who need or want a straw. Paper straws are becoming popular. Straws made from a new kind of plastic, which is biodegradable (可生物降解的) and made from plants, are also a good choice. Companies are also marketing reusable straws made of glass or metal. People can carry these straws with them to use when they go to a restaurant. However, paper straws are about 6 cents each, and reusable glass straws are about 50 to 60 cents each, while a regular plastic straw only costs about a cent. That adds up for restaurants and food sellers that offer straws. Because the use of plastic straws is getting a lot of attention these days, many businesses have decided not to use them. Starbucks has said that it will stop using plastic straws. McDonald’s announced that it will start banning (禁止) straws at its restaurants in the United Kingdom and Ireland. Hotel chains such as Hilton, Marriott, and Hyatt plan to stop using them. Even the whole cities, like Seattle, are banning the use of plastic straws. California now has a law in place that customers will only be given a straw if they ask for one. The next time you’re buying something to drink, think about your straw choices. Reuse, reduce, and recycle. 24. What can we know about the plastic straws from the text? A. They are a modem invention. B. They are seldom used in daily life. C. They were invented in 1960. D. They have been popular for centuries. 25. What’s the problem of using plastic straws? A. Plastic straws are not easy to use for most people. B. Plastic straws are usually thrown away everywhere. C. Plastic straws cause big pollution to beaches and oceans. D. Plastic straws are difficult to make and waste a lot of money. 26. Which straw costs the least according to Paragraph 3? A. The paper straw. B. The plastic straw. C. The glass straw. D. The metal straw. 27. What’s the purpose of the text? A. To share a new way of drinking water. B. To introduce a new law against water pollution. C. To explain the history and development of restaurants. D. To show the importance of using fewer plastic straws. 【答案】24. A 25. C 26. B 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文。本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了塑料吸管对环境的危害，以及一些城市和酒店等对塑料吸管的禁用。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Plastic straws are a modern invention, although people have been using different types of things for drinking water for centuries. By the 1960s, plastic straws have become common.(塑料吸管是一项现代发明，尽管几个世纪以来人们一直在使用不同类型的东西来饮用水。到20世纪60年代，塑料吸管变得很普遍。)”可知，塑料吸管是现代发明。故选A。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The problem is that plastics, including plastic straws that are usually thrown away after one use, end up in the world’s oceans. As many as 8.3 billion plastic straws pollute the world’s beaches and oceans.(问题是，塑料，包括通常一次使用后就被丢弃的塑料吸管，最终进入了世界的海洋。多达83亿根塑料吸管污染着世界的海滩和海洋。)”可知，塑料吸管的问题是对海滩和海洋造成了很大的污染。故选C。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“However, paper straws are about 6 cents each, and reusable glass straws are about 50 to 60 cents each, while a regular plastic straw only costs about a cent.(然而，纸质吸管每根约6美分，可重复使用的玻璃吸管每根约50至60美分，而普通塑料吸管的价格仅为1美分。)”可知，塑料吸管最便宜。故选B。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“The problem is that plastics, including plastic straws that are usually thrown away after one use, end up in the world’s oceans.(问题是，塑料，包括通常一次使用后就被丢弃的塑料吸管，最终进入了世界的海洋)”说明塑料吸管会造成海洋污染，结合最后一段“The next time you’re buying something to drink, think about your straw choices. Reuse, reduce, and recycle.(下次你买东西喝的时候，想想你选择的吸管。重复使用、减少使用和循环利用。)”可知，我们应该少用塑料吸管，由此可知，作者写本文是为了表明少用塑料吸管的重要性。故选D。 C In my early teens, I was once given a film camera as a gift . On receiving it, I jumped on my bike, headed to Wimbledon Common and took photos, just for me: photos of trees and wildlife. I was out all day. On my way home I spotted a tree lit up by street lighting and tried to capture its beauty. Rushing home, I put the spent film in a special little envelope and sent it off to a photography store, desperate to see how it would come out. I took many photos then and loved the fact that when you processed your film you got back colour photos which froze the precious moments, gently encouraging the hobby and the payments for processing. As I grew into adulthood, that simple, deep happiness gradually faded away. One weekend when I was busy answering the work calls, my eyes caught a box in the corner of the room. I suddenly felt a sense of sadness. The stress growing over these years had pushed the camera from beside my pillow to the box in the corner. I thought I needed a change. I took out the camera and dusted it down. It was a great joy that it still worked. I bought new film and took the camera everywhere I went. Now it is always on hand to accompany me on journeys, to allow me time to myself. Even if the day is full and busy, I can seize some moments for myself to take photos, to observe the world around me. The wall of my room now holds all my camera equipment on display, along with photos I've taken. To me, the room represents how I’ve found happiness: by reconnecting to the younger part of myself I laid aside, by allowing room in my life for pleasure to exist, and by creating an environment that allows opportunities for delight. 28. What did the author think of taking photos as a young boy? A. Inspiring and practical. B. Tiring yet delightful. C. Exciting and worthwhile. D. Difficult yet engaging. 29. Why did the author stop taking photos according to paragraph 2? A. He wanted to focus on his work. B. He was struck by sudden sorrow. C. He attempted to behave like an adult. D. He was faced with increasing pressure. 30. What did the author get from picking up his hobby? A. More fun in the daily routine. B. New journeys in the wild. C. Better skills of observation. D. Different styles of photography. 31 What is the best title for the text? A. Revisiting Lost Childhood Memories B. Appreciating Beauty Behind the Lens C. Escaping Teenage Sadness with Camera D. Regaining Pleasure Through Photography 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. A 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者小时候很喜欢拍照，后来作者的压力越来越大，这使得他放弃了拍照，偶然间作者看到了角落里的照相机，作者重新开始拍照，在繁忙的日程中获得了乐趣。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段中“I took many photos then and loved the fact that when you processed your film you got back colour photos which froze the precious moments, gently encouraging the hobby and the payments for processing. (那时我拍了很多照片，当你冲洗你的胶卷时，你会得到彩色照片，这一事实让我很高兴，它冻结了那些珍贵的时刻，温柔地鼓励了我的爱好和为冲洗而支付的费用。)”可推断，对于作者小时候拍照这件事，作者觉得这是令人兴奋且值得的。故选C。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The stress growing over these years had pushed the camera from beside my pillow to the box in the corner. (这些年来不断增长的压力把相机从我的枕头旁推到了角落里的盒子里。)”可知，作者面临的压力越来越大，这使得作者停止了拍照。故选D。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“Even if the day is full and busy, I can seize some moments for myself to take photos, to observe the world around me. (即使一天很满很忙，我也能抓住一些时间给自己拍照，观察周围的世界。)”和第四段中的“To me, the room represents how I’ve found happiness: by reconnecting to the younger part of myself I laid aside, by allowing room in my life for pleasure to exist, and by creating an environment that allows opportunities for delight. (对我来说，这个房间代表了我是如何找到幸福的：通过重新连接我搁置的年轻的自己，通过在我的生活中为快乐留出空间，通过创造一个允许快乐机会的环境。)”可知，作者通过重新开始拍照，在繁忙的日程中获得了乐趣。故选A。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段中的“To me, the room represents how I’ve found happiness: by reconnecting to the younger part of myself I laid aside, by allowing room in my life for pleasure to exist, and by creating an environment that allows opportunities for delight. (对我来说，这个房间代表了我是如何找到幸福的：通过重新连接我搁置的年轻的自己，通过在我的生活中为快乐留出空间，通过创造一个允许快乐机会的环境。)”可知，文章讲述了作者小时候很喜欢拍照，后来作者的压力越来越大，这使得他放弃了拍照，偶然间作者看到了角落里的照相机，作者重新开始拍照，在繁忙的日程中获得了乐趣。所以D项“Regaining Pleasure Through Photography (通过摄影重新获得乐趣)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选D。 D If you recently had trouble figuring out if an image of a person is real or generated through artificial intelligence (AI), you’re not alone. A new study from University of Waterloo researchers found that people had more difficulty than was expected distinguishing who is a real person and who is artificially generated. The Waterloo study saw 260 participants provided with 20 unlabeled pictures: 10 of which were of real people obtained from Google searches, and the other 10 generated by Stable Diffusion or DALL-E, two commonly used AI programs that generate images. Participants were asked to label each image as real or AI-generated and explain why they made their decision. Only 61% of participants could tell the difference between AI-generated people and real ones, far below the 85% threshold (门槛) that researchers expected. “People are not as adept at making the distinction as they think they are,” said Andreea Pocol, a PhD candidate in Computer Science at the University of Waterloo. Participants paid attention to details such as fingers, teeth, and eyes as possible indicators when looking for AI-generated content - but their assessments weren’t always correct. Pocol noted that the nature of the study allowed participants to compare photos in detail, while most Internet users look at images in passing. “People who are just doomscrolling (滚动) or don’t have time won’t pick up on these clues,” Pocol said. Pocol added that the extremely rapid rate at which AI technology is developing makes it particularly difficult to understand the potential for malicious or illegal action posed by AI-generated images. The pace of academic research and legislation (立法) isn’t often able to keep up: AI-generated images have become even more realistic since the study began in late 2022. “Disinformation isn’t new, but the tools of disinformation have been constantly shifting and progressing,” Pocol said. “It may get to a point where people, no matter how trained they are, will still struggle to differentiate real images from fakes. That’s why we need to develop tools to identify and counter this.” 32. What does the underlined word “adept” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Expert. B. Quick. C. Alarmed. D. Puzzled. 33. What decreased the accuracy of the result of the experiment? A. Ignoring facial expressions. B. Drawing a conclusion in a hurry. C. Lacking professional guidance. D. Failing to distinguish the details. 34. What’s Pocol’s advice on dealing with disinformation? A Providing people with related training. B. Banning the spread of fake information. C. Doing some field research in person. D. Developing practical tools to identify it. 35. What is the text mainly about? A. Methods of distinguishing disinformation. B. Threats caused by AI-generated images. C. Difficulties in telling AI-generated images. D. Differences between artificial and real images. 【答案】32. A 33. B 34. D 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了滑铁卢大学研究人员发现人们在区分真实人物图像与AI生成图像时遇到的困难，并介绍了研究的具体情况及结果。 【32题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“Only 61% of participants could tell the difference between AI-generated people and real ones, far below the 85% threshold (门槛) that researchers expected.(只有61%的参与者能够分辨出人工智能生成的人和真实人物之间的区别，远低于研究人员预期的85%的门槛)”可知，人们并不像自己认为的那样善于区分。所以划线词的意思是“擅长的，熟练的”与A选项“熟练的”同义。故选A项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Participants paid attention to details such as fingers, teeth, and eyes as possible indicators when looking for AI-generated content - but their assessments weren’t always correct. Pocol noted that the nature of the study allowed participants to compare photos in detail, while most Internet users look at images in passing.(在寻找人工智能生成的内容时，参与者会注意手指、牙齿和眼睛等细节，作为可能的指标，但他们的评估并不总是正确的。Pocol指出，这项研究的本质是允许参与者详细地比较照片，而大多数互联网用户都是匆匆看照片)”可知，匆忙下结论降低了实验结果的准确性。故选B项。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“That’s why we need to develop tools to identify and counter this.(这就是为什么我们需要开发工具来识别和应对这种情况)”可知，Pocol对处理虚假信息的建议是开发实用的工具来识别它。故选D项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“If you recently had trouble figuring out if an image of a person is real or generated through artificial intelligence (AI), you’re not alone. A new study from University of Waterloo researchers found that people had more difficulty than was expected distinguishing who is a real person and who is artificially generated.(如果你最近很难弄清楚一个人的图像是真实的还是通过人工智能生成的，那么你并不孤单。滑铁卢大学研究人员的一项新研究发现，人们比预期更难以区分谁是真人，谁是人造的)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要讨论了人们在区分人工智能生成的图像时遇到的困难。故选C项。 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。 Taking care of our skin is highly important, and healthy skin is key to protection from harmful elements.

(有很多护肤建议，选择哪一个对我们有好处，可能会令人困惑)”提到有很多护肤建议，选择时可能会让人困惑，下文各部分小标题“Clean your skin properly (正确清洁皮肤)”，“Get enough sleep (保证充足的睡眠)”和“Have a proper diet (保持适当的饮食习惯)”讲具体的护肤技巧，可得出该空引出下文讲一些护肤技巧，G选项“这是一份你可以尝试的护肤技巧清单”切合语境，上文“skincare advice”是关键词。故选G项。 【37题详解】 由上文“Clean twice, not once, according to Marie Claire. The first cleaning will simply remove all the surface make-up and dirt.

Drink six to eight glasses of water a day to ensure your metabolism (新陈代谢) works well, and good metabolism contributes to hydrated, supple and clearer skin. (除了使用润肤膏，我们的皮肤还可以因为摄入足够的水分而变得湿润。每天喝六到八杯水，以确保你的新陈代谢正常，良好的新陈代谢有助于保湿、柔软和清洁皮肤)”可知，本段主要讲皮肤还可以通过足够的水分摄入来保持湿润，A选项“喝足够的水”切合语境。故选A项。 【39题详解】 由小标题“Get enough sleep (保证充足的睡眠)”，上文“Sleep is nature’s most powerful beauty treatment (睡眠是大自然最强大的美容疗法)”和“Hair, face and body products also recover better when we are at rest.

(皮肤的光泽是内脏功能良好的标志)”和下文“Make sure that your daily intake includes high antioxidants, minerals and vitamins. You might as well consider eating super foods or use skincare products that contain them. (确保你的日常摄入量包括高抗氧化剂、矿物质和维生素。你不妨考虑吃超级食物或使用含有它们的护肤品)”可知，护肤与健康适当的饮食相关，E选项“它与健康均衡的饮食有关”切合语境。故选E项。 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四个选项中选出最佳选项。 “We’re all waiting for you at Port Miller Swimming Pool, Alison.

The entire room was already applauding him, and his heart was pounding in excitement. He would receive an award in front of so many people for the first time, so Ethan was thrilled and nervous. “Congratulations, Ethan. You are amazing,” his science teacher, Mrs. Johnson, praised him, extending him the prize. A wide smile flickered (闪现) across Ethan’s face. He had secured first place in the school Science Olympiad. He was just 11, and for someone of his age, this achievement was huge. Ethan was so happy and he couldn’t wait to show his mom that he had obtained first place. However, his smile faded when he couldn’t spot his mother, Mafia, anywhere ... “All yours, child,” Mrs. Johnson smiled, pointing at the prize. “Thank you, Mrs. Johnson,” Ethan managed a smile as he accepted it. The entire room burst into applause once again, but Ethan was not concerned about it. His eyes scanned the crowd for his mother. “Where are you, Mom? You had promised me that you would come!” Holding the prize in his hands, Ethan eventually got off the stage, thinking she was late. He saw the other winners return to their parents, but he sat alone, waiting for his mother to show up. To Ethan’s discouragement, the event got over, and she never came. The prize ceremony was over and the staff were leaving. Ethan’s look was still fixed on the door. He was hoping that his mom would just burst into the auditorium (礼堂) at any moment and tell him she was extremely sorry for not making it, but that never happened. He realized that she was probably not going to show up. Ethan was really mad at his mother. “How could she miss this? I had told her again and again and she had promised to be here!” he said to himself. With his head dropping down, Ethan grabbed his backpack and stepped out of the auditorium. Paragraph 1: As Ethan was walking out of the hall, Mrs. Johnson came to him hurriedly with a smartphone in her hand. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Half an hour later, Mrs. Johnson and Ethan arrived at the hospital parking lot. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】As Ethan was walking out of the hall, Mrs. Johnson came to him hurriedly with a smartphone in her hand. “Ethan, your mom called me to apologize for not being able to attend the ceremony. She explained that she had an unavoidable situation and couldn’t make it. But she’s truly proud of you and wants you to know that,” Mrs. Johnson said gently. Ethan felt a mix of emotions - relief, confusion, and concern. He wondered what could have been so important that his mom had to miss such a significant moment in his life. Half an hour later, Mrs. Johnson and Ethan arrived at the hospital parking lot. They walked inside together. As they approached his mom’s room, he saw her lying in a hospital bed, looking weak but relieved to see him. She explained that she had been in a car accident earlier that day and despite her injuries, she had tried her best to reach the ceremony but unfortunately couldn’t make it. Ethan’s anger melted away as he realized how much his mom must have wanted to be there for him. He hugged her tightly, grateful that she was okay and proud of his accomplishment. 【解析】 【导语】本文以情感发展为线索展开，讲述了Ethan在学校科学奥林匹克竞赛中获得第一名，期待母亲到场见证这一时刻，但母亲未能如约出席，最终揭示母亲因车祸受伤而未能到场的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“当Ethan正要走出大厅时，Johnson夫人急忙赶来，手里拿着一部智能手机。”可知，第一段可描写Johnson夫人向Ethan解释母亲未能到场的原因，以及Ethan对此的复杂情感反应。 ②由第二段首句内容“半小时后，Johnson夫人和Ethan来到了医院停车场。”可知，第二段可描写Ethan在医院见到母亲，了解真相，并与母亲团聚的场景。 2.续写线索：期待母亲到来——母亲未出现——Johnson夫人解释——前往医院——了解真相——情感和解 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①意识到：realize/be aware of ②解释：explain/illustrate ③参加：attend/participate in 情绪类 ①感到自豪：be proud of/take pride in ②感激的：grateful/appreciative 【点睛】[高分句型1].He wondered what could have been so important that his mom had to miss such a significant moment in his life.（运用了what引导宾语从句，so...that...引导结果状语从句） [高分句型2].

B Plastic straws (吸管) are a modern invention, although people have been using different types of things for drinking water for centuries. By the 1960s, plastic straws have become common. It is said that 500 million straws are used just in the United States each day. So what’s the problem? The problem is that plastics, including plastic straws that are usually thrown away after one use, end up in the world’s oceans. As many as 8.3 billion plastic straws pollute the world’s beaches and oceans. There are many choices for people who need or want a straw. Paper straws are becoming popular. Straws made from a new kind of plastic, which is biodegradable (可生物降解的) and made from plants, are also a good choice. Companies are also marketing reusable straws made of glass or metal. People can carry these straws with them to use when they go to a restaurant. However, paper straws are about 6 cents each, and reusable glass straws are about 50 to 60 cents each, while a regular plastic straw only costs about a cent. That adds up for restaurants and food sellers that offer straws. Because the use of plastic straws is getting a lot of attention these days, many businesses have decided not to use them. Starbucks has said that it will stop using plastic straws. McDonald’s announced that it will start banning (禁止) straws at its restaurants in the United Kingdom and Ireland. Hotel chains such as Hilton, Marriott, and Hyatt plan to stop using them. Even the whole cities, like Seattle, are banning the use of plastic straws. California now has a law in place that customers will only be given a straw if they ask for one. The next time you’re buying something to drink, think about your straw choices.

C In my early teens, I was once given a film camera as a gift . On receiving it, I jumped on my bike, headed to Wimbledon Common and took photos, just for me: photos of trees and wildlife. I was out all day. On my way home I spotted a tree lit up by street lighting and tried to capture its beauty. Rushing home, I put the spent film in a special little envelope and sent it off to a photography store, desperate to see how it would come out. I took many photos then and loved the fact that when you processed your film you got back colour photos which froze the precious moments, gently encouraging the hobby and the payments for processing. As I grew into adulthood that simple, deep happiness gradually faded away. One weekend when I was busy answering the work calls, my eyes caught a box in the corner of the room. I suddenly felt a sense of sadness. The stress growing over these years had pushed the camera from beside my pillow to the box in the corner. I thought I needed a change. I took out the camera and dusted it down. It was a great joy that it still worked. I bought new film and took the camera everywhere I went. Now it is always on hand to accompany me on journeys, to allow me time to myself. Even if the day is full and busy, I can seize some moments for myself to take photos, to observe the world around me. The wall of my room now holds all my camera equipment on display, along with photos I've taken. To me, the room represents how I’ve found happiness: by reconnecting to the younger part of myself I laid aside, by allowing room in my life for pleasure to exist, and by creating an environment that allows opportunities for delight. 28.

Different styles of photography. 31. What is the best title for the text? A. Revisiting Lost Childhood Memories B. Appreciating Beauty Behind the Lens C. Escaping Teenage Sadness with Camera D. Regaining Pleasure Through Photography D If you recently had trouble figuring out if an image of a person is real or generated through artificial intelligence (AI), you’re not alone. A new study from University of Waterloo researchers found that people had more difficulty than was expected distinguishing who is a real person and who is artificially generated. The Waterloo study saw 260 participants provided with 20 unlabeled pictures: 10 of which were of real people obtained from Google searches, and the other 10 generated by Stable Diffusion or DALL-E, two commonly used AI programs that generate images. Participants were asked to label each image as real or AI-generated and explain why they made their decision. Only 61% of participants could tell the difference between AI-generated people and real ones, far below the 85% threshold (门槛) that researchers expected. “People are not as adept at making the distinction as they think they are,” said Andreea Pocol, a PhD candidate in Computer Science at the University of Waterloo. Participants paid attention to details such as fingers, teeth, and eyes as possible indicators when looking for AI-generated content - but their assessments weren’t always correct. Pocol noted that the nature of the study allowed participants to compare photos in detail, while most Internet users look at images in passing. “People who are just doomscrolling (滚动) or don’t have time won’t pick up on these clues,” Pocol said. Pocol added that the extremely rapid rate at which AI technology is developing makes it particularly difficult to understand the potential for malicious or illegal action posed by AI-generated images. The pace of academic research and legislation (立法) isn’t often able to keep up: AI-generated images have become even more realistic since the study began in late 2022. “Disinformation isn’t new, but the tools of disinformation have been constantly shifting and progressing,” Pocol said. “It may get to a point where people, no matter how trained they are, will still struggle to differentiate real images from fakes. That’s why we need to develop tools to identify and counter this.” 32. What does the underlined word “adept” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Expert. B. Quick. C. Alarmed. D. Puzzled. 33. What decreased the accuracy of the result of the experiment? A. Ignoring facial expressions. B. Drawing a conclusion in a hurry. C. Lacking professional guidance. D. Failing to distinguish the details. 34. What’s Pocol’s advice on dealing with disinformation? A. Providing people with related training. B. Banning the spread of fake information. C. Doing some field research in person. D. Developing practical tools to identify it. 35. What is the text mainly about? A. Methods of distinguishing disinformation. B. Threats caused by AI-generated images. C. Difficulties in telling AI-generated images. D. Differences between artificial and real images. 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。 Taking care of our skin is highly important, and healthy skin is key to protection from harmful elements.

The entire room was already applauding him, and his heart was pounding in excitement. He would receive an award in front of so many people for the first time, so Ethan was thrilled and nervous. “Congratulations, Ethan. You are amazing,” his science teacher, Mrs. Johnson, praised him, extending him the prize. A wide smile flickered (闪现) across Ethan’s face. He had secured first place in the school Science Olympiad. He was just 11, and for someone of his age, this achievement was huge. Ethan was so happy and he couldn’t wait to show his mom that he had obtained first place. However, his smile faded when he couldn’t spot his mother, Mafia, anywhere ... “All yours, child,” Mrs. Johnson smiled, pointing at the prize. “Thank you, Mrs. Johnson,” Ethan managed a smile as he accepted it. The entire room burst into applause once again, but Ethan was not concerned about it. His eyes scanned the crowd for his mother. “Where are you, Mom? You had promised me that you would come!” Holding the prize in his hands, Ethan eventually got off the stage, thinking she was late. He saw the other winners return to their parents, but he sat alone, waiting for his mother to show up. To Ethan’s discouragement, the event got over, and she never came. The prize ceremony was over and the staff were leaving. Ethan’s look was still fixed on the door. He was hoping that his mom would just burst into the auditorium (礼堂) at any moment and tell him she was extremely sorry for not making it, but that never happened. He realized that she was probably not going to show up. Ethan was really mad at his mother. “How could she miss this? I had told her again and again and she had promised to be here!” he said to himself. With his head dropping down, Ethan grabbed his backpack and stepped out of the auditorium. Paragraph 1: As Ethan was walking out of the hall, Mrs. Johnson came to him hurriedly with a smartphone in her hand. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Half an hour later, Mrs. Johnson and Ethan arrived at the hospital parking lot. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
