The birth of the little girl, Melody, cast a shadow over her family.

They couldn’t believe it was true until they saw their daughter in person. Seeing her cleft made Dana and Jeff heartbroken more than anything. It broke their heart to imagine the kind of life Melody would lead in the future.
Fortunately, Dana and Jeff saw a ray of hope when the doctor told the couple that their daughter’s condition was treatable with a cleft lip surgery (外科手术). Rather than feeling stressful like the first few days, they promised themselves they never wanted their daughter to suffer from that. They would spare no effort to support Melody.
Nothing is precious than their little angel, and Dana as well as Jeff was ready to do anything for Melody. After bringing Melody home, they immediately began looking for clef surgery options. However, no matter where they turned, getting Melody the surgery she needed was expensive, and the various treatments and medications she needed in the following would also be much more costly than the young family could afford.
Then came the thrilling moment when Jeff browsed through a medical forum one evening, he stumbled upon (意外发现) a post about a nonprofit organization that specialized in cleft lip surgeries for children. The organization, named Smileatfuture, is dedicated to providing free surgeries to families who could not ford the procedure. The couple had seen a lot of photos and read a lot of stories about children who had cleft surgeries sponsored by Smileatfuture, and the results were incredible. The idea that Melody could grow up with hardly a scar (伤疤) where her cleft was lit a fire under the couple. Without any hesitation, Dana and her husband reached out to Smileatfuture and handed in an application for medical aid.

35.At dusk, he was wandering about in the street. (改为时间作主语)
【答案】Dusk found him wandering about in the street
【详解】考查名词、时态、非谓语动词、固定短语。句意:黄昏时,他在街上闲逛。按照要求,改后的句子翻译为“黄昏时发现他在街上闲逛”。主语用表示时间的dusk“黄昏”,位于句首,首字母大写。表示“发现某人做某事”用固定短语find sb. doing sth.,原句事情发生在过去,故改后的句子时态用一般过去时,谓语用过去式found。表示“他”用him,作found的宾语。表示“闲逛”用固定短语wander about,用现在分词wandering作him的宾语补足语。表示“在街上”用固定短语in the street,作状语。故答案为Dusk found him wandering about in the street。

三、书面表达
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。
The birth of the little girl, Melody, cast a shadow over her family. The words the doctor said to Dana and Jeff completely shook them, “Your daughter was born with a cleft lip (唇裂).” It was impossible for the couple to hide their sadness. They couldn’t believe it was true until they saw their daughter in person. Seeing her cleft made Dana and Jeff heartbroken more than anything. It broke their heart to imagine the kind of life Melody would lead in the future.
Fortunately, Dana and Jeff saw a ray of hope when the doctor told the couple that their daughter’s condition was treatable with a cleft lip surgery (外科手术). Rather than feeling stressful like the first few days, they promised themselves they never wanted their daughter to suffer from that. They would spare no effort to support Melody.
Nothing is precious than their little angel, and Dana as well as Jeff was ready to do anything for Melody. After bringing Melody home, they immediately began looking for clef surgery options. However, no matter where they turned, getting Melody the surgery she needed was expensive, and the various treatments and medications she needed in the following would also be much more costly than the young family could afford.
Then came the thrilling moment when Jeff browsed through a medical forum one evening, he stumbled upon (意外发现) a post about a nonprofit organization that specialized in cleft lip surgeries for children. The organization, named Smileatfuture, is dedicated to providing free surgeries to families who could not ford the procedure. The couple had seen a lot of photos and read a lot of stories about children who had cleft surgeries sponsored by Smileatfuture, and the results were incredible. The idea that Melody could grow up with hardly a scar (伤疤) where her cleft was lit a fire under the couple. Without any hesitation, Dana and her husband reached out to Smileatfuture and handed in an application for medical aid.

【答案】One possible version:
Everything went more smoothly than Dana and Jeff had expected. Within one week, they were overjoyed to learn that their application had been approved and that Melody was qualified for the program.

Smileatfuture’s team was incredibly supportive, guiding them on everything they needed to do to prepare Melody for her surgery. Knowing that their daughter’s future was in capable hands, they left with a newfound sense of optimism that day.
The big day for Melody’s surgery finally came. All the tests beforehand showed that Melody was in perfect condition for the surgery. The couple’s hearts were overflowing with a mix of anxiety and hope. After what seemed a century’s waiting, they finally had good news that the surgery was a success. Imagining that their girl was on track for a life of joy, loving to run around and play with other kids in the future, Dana and Jeff felt more than relieved and grateful. The couple owed all these to the kindness they received. They also made a promise to pay it forward by helping others in need.
