Imagine the perfect baguette — a kind of French bread, crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Sri Lankan-origin baker Tharshan Selvarajah made one just like that. He was given the title of “king” of the baguette in Paris, winning the city’s oldest baguette competition in France in May, reported CNN.
At this year’s 30th edition of the contest, 176 bakers came from across the city to enter their tasty baguettes. They faced an 18-person group of judges, which consists of former winners, baking industry officials, food bloggers, and six local citizens.
The loaves must be “traditionally made”, not industrially made. They are judged on their appearance, smell, baking technique and flavor. However, 40 of them were eliminated early. Their baguettes were either too long, short, heavy, light or used the wrong flour, said CNN.
For Tharshan Selvarajah, winning the top prize was extra special. “I cried because we are foreigners and we came here to learn how to make traditional French bread,” Selvarajah told AFP. “I didn’t have the slightest idea that I could win the prize.”
That was not all that contributed to Selvarajah’s emotions. As the winner, he got 4,000 Euros (about 30,380 yuan) in prize money and the right to make baguette for the official home of the Frenchpresident for one year.
Selvarajah who owns a simple bakery in eastern Paris said his bakery’s secret is baking a certain amount every 20 minutes so it’s always hot and fresh, reported CNN.
The baguette is a cultural symbol in France. In November 2022, UNESCO recognized baguette as world heritage, reported AP. French bread can be found in every neighborhood in Paris. Oliver Polski, the mayoral deputy for commerce and artisanship, told CNN. “Industrial baking has pretty much disappeared in Paris.”
4. What does the underlined word “eliminated”in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Chosen as final competitors. B. Commented carefully.
C. Refused to enter the competition. D. Given special recognition.
5. How did Selvarajah feel after winning the baguette contest?
A. Shocked. B. Confused. C. Overjoyed. D. Anxious.
6. What does Selvarajah think contributes to the success of his bakery?
A. The use of traditional French flour. B. The freshness of bread.
C The support of the local community. D. The unique taste of fresh bread.
7. What does Olivia Polski think of industrial baking in Paris?
A. It is no longer popular in the city.
B. It has become more common recently.
C. It is being revived due to increased demand.
D. It will continue to exist with traditional bakeries.
【答案】4. C 5. C 6. B 7. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。主要介绍了斯里兰卡籍的面包师Tharshan Selvarajah赢得了今年巴黎最古老法棍面包比赛的冠军。
【4题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段第一句“At this year’s 30th edition of the contest, 176 bakers came from across the city to enter their tasty baguettes.”(在今年的第30届比赛中,来自全市各地的176名面包师参加了他们美味的法棍面包比赛。)及第三段最后两句“However, 40 of them were eliminated early. Their baguettes were either too long, short, heavy, light or used the wrong flour”(然而,其中40人被提前……。他们的法棍面包要么太长,要么太短,要么太重,要么太轻,要么用错了面粉。)可知,共176名面包师参加了法棍面包比赛,但其中40人犯了很多低级错误,因而会被提前淘汰,故推知eliminated表示“被淘汰”,即“取消参赛资格”。故选C项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“For Tharshan Selvarajah, winning the top prize was extra special. “I cried because we are foreigners and we came here to learn how to make traditional French bread,” Selvarajah told AFP. “I didn’t have the slightest idea that I could win the prize.””(对于Tharshan Selvarajah来说,赢得最高奖项是特别的。“我哭了,因为我们是外国人,我们来这里是为了学习如何制作传统的法国面包,”Selvarajah告诉法新社。“我一点也不知道我能得奖。”)及第五段第二句“As the winner, he got 4,000 Euros (about 30,380 yuan) in prize money and the right to make baguette for the official home of the Frenchpresident for one year.”(作为获胜者,他获得了4000欧元(约30380元人民币)的奖金,并获得了为法国总统官邸制作一年法棍面包的权利。)可知,Tharshan Selvarajah从未想过自己能获奖,获奖后,他不仅获得了丰厚的奖金还获得了特殊的权利,因而会喜极而泣。故选C项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段“Selvarajah who owns a simple bakery in eastern Paris said his bakery’s secret is baking a certain amount every 20 minutes so it’s always hot and fresh, reported CNN.”(据美国有线电视新闻网报道,Selvarajah在巴黎东部拥有一家简单的面包店,他说他的面包店的秘密是每20分钟烤一定数量的面包,这样面包就会一直热而新鲜。)可知,他的面包店成功的秘诀在于时刻保持面包的新鲜。故选B项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句“Industrial baking has pretty much disappeared in Paris.”(工业烘焙在巴黎几乎已经消失了。)可知,Olivia Polski认为工业烘焙在巴黎几乎已经消失了,也就是说工业烘焙不再流行了。故选A项。
C
When colds and flu hit, many people naturally turn to over-the-counter(OTC) medicines (非处方药) to push through and treat their symptoms. Although these medicines are easily accessible and widely used, it might come as a surprise to many people to learn that they are not risk-free. A study estimated that every year, 26, 735 people went to the emergency room for problems related to OTC cold and cough medicines.
When two or more drugs are used together, their interactions can sometimes produce unexpected harmful effects. Doctors are typically knowledgeable about possible drug interactions, so it is very important for patients to ask their healthcare providers which OTC medicines are safe for them to use.
It is important to read the package ingredients (成分) of OTC medicines closely to avoid duplication of doses (剂量重复). Cold medicines are typically made up of various ingredients, including pain relievers, nasal decongestants and cough suppressants or expectorants. A person who takes a single-ingredient medicine paired with one of these multi-ingredient medicines can receive an unsafe dose of that ingredient.
While everyone could experience bad effects from cold and flu medicines, some groups —including older adults, children and pregnant women—may be at greater risk.
Older people who are using prescribed (处方的) drugs to treat different health conditions may have a higher risk of drug interactions because of the higher number of medicines being used at the same time to treat different conditions. The aging body is not as expert at absorbing, distributing and clearing medicines as younger bodies are. This can put older adults at higher risk for an overdose and drug-to-drug interactions with some medicines.
The Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention do not recommend giving cold medicines to children under age 4. Because of a variety of factors, young children have a higher risk of an accidental overdose and adverse events that could lead to death.
8. What does the author suggest patients do in paragraph 2?
A. Ask for advice from doctors. B. Buy medicines from hospitals.
C. Take drugs as early as possible. D. Read the package ingredients of drugs.
9. Why did the author mention cold medicines in paragraph 3?
A. To provide a medical choice for people who catch a cold.
B. To show cold medicines are more likely to cause bad effects.
C. To explain OTC medicines often have more than one ingredient.
D. To stress the importance of learning about medicines' ingredients.
10. What can we learn about older people in paragraph 5?
A. They cannot face aging positively.
B. They are more easily affected by diseases.
C. Their body cannot deal with medicines easily.
D. Their desire for health makes them take more medicines.
11. What is a suitable title for the text?
A. OTC medicines may not be safe
B. Tips for taking over-the-counter drugs
C. How to deal with an OTC drug overdose
D. Should medicines be available “over the counter” ?
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。尽管非处方药很容易获得并广泛使用,但它们并非没有风险。一项研究估计,每年有26735人因非处方感冒药和咳嗽药而去急诊室就诊。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Doctors are typically knowledgeable about possible drug interactions, so it is very important for patients to ask their healthcare providers which OTC medicines are safe for them to use. (医生通常了解可能的药物相互作用,因此患者询问医疗保健提供者哪些非处方药对他们来说是安全的,这一点非常重要。)”可知,作者在建议患者征求医生的意见。故选A。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“It is important to read the package ingredients (成分) of OTC medicines closely to avoid duplication of doses (剂量重复). (仔细阅读非处方药的包装成分以避免重复剂量是很重要的。)”可知,作者在第3段中提到感冒药种成分多是为了强调学习药物成分的重要性。故选D。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中的“The aging body is not as expert at absorbing, distributing and clearing medicines as younger bodies are. This can put older adults at higher risk for an overdose and drug-to-drug interactions with some medicines. (衰老的身体不像年轻的身体那样擅长吸收、分配和清除药物。这会使老年人面临更高的服药过量风险以及与某些药物的药物相互作用风险。)”可知,老年人的身体不容易应对药物。故选C。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“When colds and flu hit, many people naturally turn to over-the-counter(OTC) medicines (非处方药) to push through and treat their symptoms. Although these medicines are easily accessible and widely used, it might come as a surprise to many people to learn that they are not risk-free. (当感冒和流感袭来时,许多人自然会转向非处方药来缓解和治疗他们的症状。尽管这些药物很容易获得并广泛使用,但许多人可能会惊讶地发现,它们并非没有风险。)”可知,尽管非处方药很容易获得并广泛使用,但它们并非没有风险。A项“OTC medicines may not be safe (非处方药可能并不安全)”最能概括本文主旨。故选A。
D
A 2018 Guardian article predicted a hopeless future for Icelandic as a language: “fighting the threat of ‘digital extinction’”. In that report, it was explained how the mother tongue and the cultural identity of Icelanders are getting stuck on an Internet that is almost entirely in English. The same Government also warned a few years ago that in a few generations, if it could not continue to be the country’s default (默认的) language in the face of rapid digitization, it would disappear completely.
To protect it, the country even coins Icelandic terms for new concepts rather than borrowing words from other languages. Computer, for example, becomes tolva, which is a mix between tala and volva. The goal is for the language to remain “clean” and keep its Old Norse roots. But despite this, Icelandic is only used today by about 340,000 people. And, at a time when Netflix, YouTube and voice assistants have become the normal in the globalized world, Icelandic is sinking into an ocean of English.
A few months ago, Open AI issued the long-awaited GPT-4 model, an update to the technology behind its popular Chat GPT, the fastest-growing application in history. The company says that GPT-4 is its most advanced system and can produce safer and more useful replies, adding that GPT-4 goes beyond Chat GPT in its advanced reasoning abilities. Iceland has seen a solution to its problems. The country’s president, GuOni Th. JOhannesson, has partnered with Open AI to use GPTT-4 to preserve Icelandic.
And how can AI help Iceland? To answer that question, one must understand that Open AI’s GPT models are largely trained by text on the Internet. That means that most of the technical knowledge and training is in English. That, in turn, means GPT doesn’t have the same understanding abilities in smaller languages. Although GPT-4 performs much better than its former versions, it still has some grammatical, “translation” and cultural errors. To address this, the Icelandic language technology company MiOeindehf has asked a team of 40 volunteers to train GPT-4 on proper Icelandic grammar and cultural knowledge.
12. Why does the author mention the 2018 Guardian article in paragraph 1?
A. To show the difficult situation of Icelandic.
B. To show the rapid development of digitization.
C. To explain how the Iceland government popularizes English.
D To explain why Icelanders are changing their cultural identity.
13. What does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The effort made by Iceland to protect its language.
B. The new language rules discovered by Icelanders.
C. The translation of Icelandic into other languages.
D. The comparison of Icelandic and other languages.
14. What does Open AI say about its GPT-4 model?
A. It replies more quickly than Chat GPT.
B. It is the fastest-growing application in history.
C. It was originally designed for language protection.
D. It performs better in advanced reasoning than Chat GPT.
15. How will MiOeindehf improve GPT-4’s translations?
A. By updating Icelandic’s online database regularly.
B. By asking volunteers to give GPT-4 proper training.
C. By learning from Chat GPT’s previous translations.
D. By separating grammatical errors from cultural errors.
【答案】12. A 13. A 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文,介绍了在英语在全球使用日益广泛的背景下,冰岛政府和人民借助Al,努力保持自己的语言——冰岛语所做出的努力。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“A 2018 Guardian article predicted a hopeless future for Icelandic as a language: “fighting the threat of ‘digital extinction’”. In that report, it was explained how the mother tongue and the cultural identity of Icelanders are getting stuck on an Internet that is almost entirely in English.(《卫报》2018年的一篇文章预测,冰岛语作为一种语言的未来将是无望的:“与‘数字灭绝’的威胁作斗争”。在那份报告中,解释了冰岛人的母语和文化身份是如何被一个几乎全是英语的互联网所困住的)”可推知,作者在第一段提到了2018年《卫报》的文章是为了显示冰岛人的困难处境。故选A。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Computer, for example, becomes tolva, which is a mix between tala and volva. The goal is for the language to remain “clean” and keep its Old Norse roots.(例如,Computer变成了tolva,它是tala和volva的混合。这样做的目的是让语言保持“干净”,并保持其古斯堪的纳维亚语的词根)”可知,冰岛正在采取措施来保护冰岛语的生存和纯洁。故“this”指的是冰岛为保护自己的语言所做的努力。故选A。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The company says that GPT-4 is its most advanced system and can produce safer and more useful replies, adding that GPT-4 goes beyond Chat GPT in its advanced reasoning abilities.(该公司表示,GPT-4是最先进的系统,可以提供更安全、更有用的回答,并补充说,GPT-4的高级推理能力超过了Chat GPT)”可知,Open AI认为GPT-4模型在高级推理方面比Chat GPT表现得更好。故选D。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“To address this, the Icelandic language technology company MiOeindehf has asked a team of 40 volunteers to train GPT-4 on proper Icelandic grammar and cultural knowledge.(为了解决这个问题,冰岛语言技术公司MiOeindehf要求一个由40名志愿者组成的团队对GPT-4进行适当的冰岛语法和文化知识培训)”可知,MiOeindehf将要求志愿者给予GPT-4适当的培训。故选B。

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。
Mr Smith had recently joined the school as an English teacher, and within his first two weeks, he had already won over his students with his lively and interesting classes. The students were enthusiastic about reading pages from the novel they were studying, working hard to write wonderful articles and fearlessly giving presentations in front of the class. Mr Smith’s approach had breathed new life into the classroom, changing what used to be dull lessons into exciting learning experiences.
Despite the overall success, Mr Smith couldn’t help but notice one student who seemed to be struggling — Jeremy. This quiet student always sat at the back of the classroom, unwilling to speak or cooperate. Although his grades weren’t terrible, there was some clear room for improvement. Mr Smith wondered whether it was because of his lack of confidence in class and his below-average school performance.
One day, Mr Smith approached Jeremy with great concern, asking how he was finding the class. Jeremy’s reply was brief and shy, avoiding eye contact with his teacher. After replying to his teacher, Jeremy slowly left the class, walking behind the other students alone. It was clear to Mr Smith that this was a student who needed a helping hand, a bit of inspiration and motivation.
Mr Smith decided to call Jeremy’s mother to see if she could give him some ideas on how to bring him out of his shell. “I’m sorry, Jeremy is so busy helping me at home that sometimes that he doesn’t spend as much time on his homework as maybe he should,” she said. Mr Smith heard this and started to understand. “However, whenever he is helping me around the house, singing never fails to put a smile on his face.”
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
With this newfound knowledge, Mr Smith walked into the next class with a plan.

After class, Jeremy approached Mr Smith’s desk with a big smile on his face.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
With this newfound knowledge, Mr Smith walked into the next class with a plan. “Today we will have a singing competition!” he announced. Jeremy’s eyes lit up at the moment, for it was an opportunity for him to showcase his talent. As the competition began, Mr Smith called Jeremy to be the first performer, whose song was a true feast for the ears, so that everyone sat in admiration. The usually silent boy indeed gave a brilliant performance, which was eventually greeted with loud applause with Jeremy standing straight at the front smiling delightedly.
After class, Jeremy approached Mr Smith’s desk with a big smile on his face. “Thank you, sir. Today’s class was the best.” Mr Smith couldn’t help but feel emotional, knowing that his plan had worked. Jeremy’s newfound confidence had blossomed through the power of music and self-expression. From that day on, Jeremy became more engaged and active in class, his grades improving gradually. It was Mr Smith’s belief in the potential of every student and his willingness to go the extra mile that had made a lasting impact on Jeremy’s life. He knew that with continued support and encouragement, Jeremy could achieve great things.

Imagine the perfect baguette — a kind of French bread, crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Sri Lankan-origin baker Tharshan Selvarajah made one just like that. He was given the title of “king” of the baguette in Paris, winning the city’s oldest baguette competition in France in May, reported CNN.
At this year’s 30th edition of the contest, 176 bakers came from across the city to enter their tasty baguettes. They faced an 18-person group of judges, which consists of former winners, baking industry officials, food bloggers, and six local citizens.
The loaves must be “traditionally made”, not industrially made. They are judged on their appearance, smell, baking technique and flavor. However, 40 of them were eliminated early. Their baguettes were either too long, short, heavy, light or used the wrong flour, said CNN.
For Tharshan Selvarajah, winning the top prize was extra special. “I cried because we are foreigners and we came here to learn how to make traditional French bread,” Selvarajah told AFP. “I didn’t have the slightest idea that I could win the prize.”
That was not all that contributed to Selvarajah’s emotions. As the winner, he got 4,000 Euros (about 30,380 yuan) in prize money and the right to make baguette for the official home of the Frenchpresident for one year.
Selvarajah who owns a simple bakery in eastern Paris said his bakery’s secret is baking a certain amount every 20 minutes so it’s always hot and fresh, reported CNN.
The baguette is a cultural symbol in France. In November 2022, UNESCO recognized baguette as world heritage, reported AP. French bread can be found in every neighborhood in Paris. Oliver Polski, the mayoral deputy for commerce and artisanship, told CNN. “Industrial baking has pretty much disappeared in Paris.”
4. What does the underlined word “eliminated”in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Chosen as final competitors. B. Commented carefully.
C. Refused to enter the competition. D. Given special recognition.
5. How did Selvarajah feel after winning the baguette contest?
A Shocked. B. Confused. C. Overjoyed. D. Anxious.
6. What does Selvarajah think contributes to the success of his bakery?
A. The use of traditional French flour. B. The freshness of bread.
C. The support of the local community. D. The unique taste of fresh bread.
7. What does Olivia Polski think of industrial baking in Paris?
A. It is no longer popular in the city.
B. It has become more common recently.
C. It is being revived due to increased demand.
D. It will continue to exist with traditional bakeries.
C
When colds and flu hit, many people naturally turn to over-the-counter(OTC) medicines (非处方药) to push through and treat their symptoms. Although these medicines are easily accessible and widely used, it might come as a surprise to many people to learn that they are not risk-free. A study estimated that every year, 26, 735 people went to the emergency room for problems related to OTC cold and cough medicines.
When two or more drugs are used together, their interactions can sometimes produce unexpected harmful effects. Doctors are typically knowledgeable about possible drug interactions, so it is very important for patients to ask their healthcare providers which OTC medicines are safe for them to use.
It is important to read the package ingredients (成分) of OTC medicines closely to avoid duplication of doses (剂量重复). Cold medicines are typically made up of various ingredients, including pain relievers, nasal decongestants and cough suppressants or expectorants. A person who takes a single-ingredient medicine paired with one of these multi-ingredient medicines can receive an unsafe dose of that ingredient.
While everyone could experience bad effects from cold and flu medicines, some groups —including older adults, children and pregnant women—may be at greater risk.
Older people who are using prescribed (处方的) drugs to treat different health conditions may have a higher risk of drug interactions because of the higher number of medicines being used at the same time to treat different conditions. The aging body is not as expert at absorbing, distributing and clearing medicines as younger bodies are. This can put older adults at higher risk for an overdose and drug-to-drug interactions with some medicines.
The Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention do not recommend giving cold medicines to children under age 4. Because of a variety of factors, young children have a higher risk of an accidental overdose and adverse events that could lead to death.
8. What does the author suggest patients do in paragraph 2?
A. Ask for advice from doctors. B. Buy medicines from hospitals.
C. Take drugs as early as possible. D. Read the package ingredients of drugs.
9. Why did the author mention cold medicines in paragraph 3?
A. To provide a medical choice for people who catch a cold.
B. To show cold medicines are more likely to cause bad effects.
C To explain OTC medicines often have more than one ingredient.
D. To stress the importance of learning about medicines' ingredients.

A 2018 Guardian article predicted a hopeless future for Icelandic as a language: “fighting the threat of ‘digital extinction’”. In that report, it was explained how the mother tongue and the cultural identity of Icelanders are getting stuck on an Internet that is almost entirely in English. The same Government also warned a few years ago that in a few generations, if it could not continue to be the country’s default (默认的) language in the face of rapid digitization, it would disappear completely.
To protect it, the country even coins Icelandic terms for new concepts rather than borrowing words from other languages. Computer, for example, becomes tolva, which is a mix between tala and volva. The goal is for the language to remain “clean” and keep its Old Norse roots. But despite this, Icelandic is only used today by about 340,000 people. And, at a time when Netflix, YouTube and voice assistants have become the normal in the globalized world, Icelandic is sinking into an ocean of English.
A few months ago, Open AI issued the long-awaited GPT-4 model, an update to the technology behind its popular Chat GPT, the fastest-growing application in history. The company says that GPT-4 is its most advanced system and can produce safer and more useful replies, adding that GPT-4 goes beyond Chat GPT in its advanced reasoning abilities. Iceland has seen a solution to its problems. The country’s president, GuOni Th. JOhannesson, has partnered with Open AI to use GPTT-4 to preserve Icelandic.
And how can AI help Iceland? To answer that question, one must understand that Open AI’s GPT models are largely trained by text on the Internet. That means that most of the technical knowledge and training is in English. That, in turn, means GPT doesn’t have the same understanding abilities in smaller languages. Although GPT-4 performs much better than its former versions, it still has some grammatical, “translation” and cultural errors. To address this, the Icelandic language technology company MiOeindehf has asked a team of 40 volunteers to train GPT-4 on proper Icelandic grammar and cultural knowledge.
12. Why does the author mention the 2018 Guardian article in paragraph 1?
A. To show the difficult situation of Icelandic.
B. To show the rapid development of digitization.
C. To explain how the Iceland government popularizes English.
D. To explain why Icelanders are changing their cultural identity.
13. What does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The effort made by Iceland to protect its language.
B. The new language rules discovered by Icelanders.
C. The translation of Icelandic into other languages.
D. The comparison of Icelandic and other languages.
14. What does Open AI say about its GPT-4 model?
A. It replies more quickly than Chat GPT.
B. It is the fastest-growing application in history.
C. It was originally designed for language protection.
D. It performs better in advanced reasoning than Chat GPT.
15. How will MiOeindehf improve GPT-4’s translations?
A. By updating Icelandic’s online database regularly.
B. By asking volunteers to give GPT-4 proper training.
C. By learning from Chat GPT’s previous translations.
D. By separating grammatical errors from cultural errors.

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。
Mr Smith had recently joined the school as an English teacher, and within his first two weeks, he had already won over his students with his lively and interesting classes. The students were enthusiastic about reading pages from the novel they were studying, working hard to write wonderful articles and fearlessly giving presentations in front of the class. Mr Smith’s approach had breathed new life into the classroom, changing what used to be dull lessons into exciting learning experiences.
Despite the overall success, Mr Smith couldn’t help but notice one student who seemed to be struggling — Jeremy. This quiet student always sat at the back of the classroom, unwilling to speak or cooperate. Although his grades weren’t terrible, there was some clear room for improvement. Mr Smith wondered whether it was because of his lack of confidence in class and his below-average school performance.
One day Mr Smith approached Jeremy with great concern, asking how he was finding the class. Jeremy’s reply was brief and shy, avoiding eye contact with his teacher. After replying to his teacher, Jeremy slowly left the class, walking behind the other students alone. It was clear to Mr Smith that this was a student who needed a helping hand, a bit of inspiration and motivation.
Mr Smith decided to call Jeremy’s mother to see if she could give him some ideas on how to bring him out of his shell. “I’m sorry, Jeremy is so busy helping me at home that sometimes that he doesn’t spend as much time on his homework as maybe he should,” she said. Mr Smith heard this and started to understand. “However, whenever he is helping me around the house, singing never fails to put a smile on his face.”
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
With this newfound knowledge, Mr Smith walked into the next class with a plan.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
After class, Jeremy approached Mr Smith’s desk with a big smile on his face.
