Miss Keith
Hi, everyone! My name is Miss Keith, and I’m thrilled to be joining you all this September! Fresh out of University of Brighton, I’m eager to put my studies into practice. I have spent a lot of time at Polegate covering different classes, so I already know what a fantastic school community this is!

I am very crazy about learning in all areas of the curriculum and can’t wait to get started!
Miss Tennant
Hello, everyone! I am Miss Tennant and am excited to become a part of the wonderful Polegate community in September.

Leah Brown aged 36 fell several hundred feet from Oregon’s highest mountain right before the eyes of a group of volunteer rescue workers who rushed to her aid and helped save her life.
The woman was coming down a popular path (小路) on Mt. Hood, about 70 miles east of Portland, on Saturday morning, according to the local police. Mt. Hood is the highest in Oregon, standing at around11.240 feet.
The fall was seen by members of Portland Mountain Rescue (PMR), a volunteer organization focused on helping people in mountainous areas. The group called 911 and rushed to the woman, providing medical care. They helped keep the woman warm for seven hours as the police worked to get her off the mountain safely. Finally, the woman was evacuated (转移) to a parking lot at 9:30 pm and taken to a hospital.
The climber, Leah Brown, said she didn’t know what caused her fall. “I can only guess it was either an ice tool or a crampon (冰爪) that didn’t land and stick like it should have, so I became detached from the mountain,” Brown said. “The thing I’d like to most stress is my appreciation for the members of PMR who evacuated me and took good care of me the whole time,” Brown added. “They saved my life. ”
In a statement after the rescue, PMR warned of the dangerous winter conditions at the mountain. “The short days and lower temperatures mean that the snow tends to be very hard and icy, and the conditions tend to be much steeper. Climbing the mountain in icy conditions is much more difficult,” the group said.
24. What happened to Brown on Saturday morning?
A. She lost her way in a forest. B. She hurt her eye unexpectedly.
C. She failed to call her family. D. She fell down on a downhill path.
25. What does the underlined word “detached” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Different. B. Hidden. C. Separated. D. Tired.
26. How did Brown feel about the members of PMR?
A. Thankful. B. Regretful. C. Surprised. D. Concerned.
27. What did PMR intend to tell us?
A Climbing requires teamwork. B. Climbing in winter is too risky.
C. We must remain positive in hard times. D. We can admire the view on sunny days.

Our two-year investigation into caged (关在笼中) tigers in America sent us through 32 US states—with some truly shocking experiences. But as the deadline neared, I still needed a powerful and hopeful image.
When we began our reporting in 2017—Sharon writing; me taking photos; and our son, NickRuggia, filming—more tigers likely lived in cages in the US than remained in the wild. The number ranged from 5,000 to 10,000, but without strict government oversight, no one knew for sure.
Roadside zoos that allowed tourists to take pictures of young tigers were the main cause of what’s been called a US tiger crisis (危机). Caged cats often ended up in the illegal wildlife trade. Young tigers, parted from their mothers at birth, were fed poorly and touched by hundreds of people. When they grew too big and dangerous to pet at around 12 weeks, young tigers were put on show, or simply disappeared.
While we documented the unpleasant part of this industry, we also wanted to show the good life these impressive animals could have. With two weeks left before my deadline, I headed to the Wild Animal Sanctuary near Denver, where well-cared cats walked freely in their habitat.
There I met Clay, Daniel, and Enzo, three of 39 tigers rescued from an animal park in Oklahoma. These nearly grown cats raced beside our car, which I’d seen only in the wild. It was a hot July day and soon two of the cats jumped into a pool to cool off. The third rested beside them on the ground. I crossed the road to take a picture of them. Then quietly, I came up close, trying not to disturb (打扰) them. I had the shot.
28. Why did the author start her reporting?
A. To dig out the dark truth of caged tigers. B. To explore the amazing land in the country.
C. To tell people that baby tigers are harmless. D. To share the happy moment during the trip.
29. What is the main cause of the US tiger crisis according to the text?
A. Forest fires. B. Climate change. C. Roadside zoos. D. Water pollution.
30. What can we learn about these young tigers from paragraph 3?
A. They prefer to stay indoors. B. They are badly treated.
C. They get used to the changes. D. They are traded legally.
31. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning the Wild Animal Sanctuary?
A. To praise her family for their effort. B. To explain what the animals suffered.
C. To introduce a special kind of tigers. D. To show some tigers lead an easy life.
D
People tend to use trees for papermaking. But maybe electronics (电子) engineers are missing out on something here. “It turns out that two major building blocks of wood have a lot of electrical qualities,” says Magnus Berggren, a professor at Linköping University.
His team has been working to make parts for electronics from the forest. Right now they’re focusing on two materials of trees. The first material is cellulose, which can make energy. Lignin, the second material, can store that energy, just as a battery does. The team has found when pressed, cellulose can produce electricity.
Some device must then store the electricity until it’s needed. Batteries can do this. But batteries aren’t very green. They have harmful materials. That’s where lignin comes in.
Batteries cause electrons to flow from one place to another, which can produce electricity. In a typical battery, one material must give electrons. The other must accept them. Lignin can do both. A weak acid (酸) encourages lignin to produce electrons. “With a metal wire (金属线) to guide those electrons, you’ll have electricity,” says Berggren.
Berggren’s team use this quality to create its new lignin-based battery. Typical batteries use a metal wire as a path to guide the flow of electrons into or out of the device. But since Berggren wants to make a battery of the forest, he looks for a natural way. Once again, he turns to cellulose.
This natural material can serve as a wire-like path for electrons. To make it work well, Berggren lines them with another chemical known as PEDOT, which isn’t from a tree. But when PEDOT is added to cellulose, they can conduct electricity like a wire. “With a weak acid, now you have a battery,” Berggren says. “And two of its three materials come from the forest.”
Berggren can imagine one day having mobile phone batteries made largely from forest products. Tree-based electronics might also be useful in lighting.
32. What is cellulose used to do in the study?
A. Act as a weak acid. B. Collect rainwater.
C. Produce electricity. D. Make quality paper.
33. Which best describes the new battery?
A. Well-received. B. Eco-friendly. C. Harmful. D. Heavy.
34. What can we expect of tree-based electronics?
A. They may change farming practices. B. They might save a lot of wood.
C. They would serve the elderly. D. They could light the rooms.
35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. A Green Way to Make and Store Energy B. An Attempt to Raise Power Production
C. Practical Suggestions on Planting Trees D. Recent Advances in Mobile Phones
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。
Imagine mountains enveloped in silver water, shining in the spring sun. Summer sees the mountains turn bright green with growing rice. During autumn, these mountains are gold, and in winter they are covered with white frost. ____36____
These terraces (梯田) were built by the local Zhuang and Yao people. Starting in the Yuan Dynasty, work on the terraces took hundreds of years. ____37____ Reaching as far as the eye can see, these terraces cover tall mountains, often from the bottom to the very top.
____38____ Firstly there are few large flat areas of land in the region. Building the terraces could increase the areas to grow rice. Secondly, although the region has plenty of rain, the mountains are steep (陡峭) and the soil is shallow. The fat terraces help catch the rainwater and prevent the soil from being washed away.
But perhaps the most important is the way people have worked in peace with nature. The terraces are cleverly designed, with hundreds of waterways connecting with each other. During the rainy season, rainwater moves down the mountains and into the terraces along these waterways. The sun heats the water and turns it into vapour (水蒸气). ____39____ These terraces also provide a perfect environment for birds and fish, some of which feed on insects harmful to crops.
Although modern technology helps produce more crops, these terraces still mean a lot to the local people for whom traditions hold much value. ____40____ Thus, new generations continue to use ancient methods of agriculture to maintain the terraces. Today, the Longji Rice Terraces attract thousands of visitors to admire this great wonder created by people and nature working together.
A. Terraces were built to collect the rain.
B. These are the colors of the Longji Terraces.
C. This knowledge is passed down through families.
D. It wasn’t completed until the early Qing Dynasty.
E. So how did people change the entire mountains into terraces?
F. This forms clouds from which rain falls down onto the terraces again.
G. So why did these people take trouble turning the entire mountains into terraces?

Growing up in England with a British father and a Chinese mother, I have enjoyed food from both countries ever since I was able to hold a knife and fork — and chopsticks!

Even today, he still does not easily ____44____ eating things like chicken feet. But I enjoy that sort of food myself.
Dad can ____45____ a super “full English breakfast” of bacon, eggs, beans, sausages and toast with butter. He also does a ____46____ Sunday roast. We all love roast beef and vegetables, but Mum ____47____ us not to eat too much roast food.
When I first visited China, Mum ____48____ me to try different kinds of food and I did. I came across ____49____ tofu, a horrible grey thing that looked and smelt like a burnt sports shoe. I ____50____ all my courage to take a bite and was ____51____ to find it wasn’t so bad. It ____52____ me of blue cheese, a ____53____ strong smelling type of food you either love or hate. Maybe I’ll fall in love with stinky tofu—someday.
People say that one man’s meat is ____54____ man’s poison, but I feel at home with ____55____ from both my cultures. To me, there’s nothing better than a cross-cultural afternoon tea of English biscuits and a cup of Chinese oolong tea in a fine china cup!

Jake was new to the school-a shy freshman feeling at a loss for high school life. He often found himself lost in the sea of faces and lockers. Ms. Brock, his English teacher, noticed this quiet young man from the first day of class.
One afternoon, Jake was wandering (徘徊) the halls, trying to find the library. He noticed Ms. Brock in the office grading papers with full attention. It seemed that Ms. Brock had forgotten the world around her. Keeping up his courage, Jake came to her.
“Um, excuse me, Ms. Brock?” Jake’s voice was shaking slightly.
Ms. Brock looked up, her eyes filled with warmth.“ Yes, Jake? How can I help you?”
Jake hesitated (犹豫), in broken sentences, “I... I’m trying to find the library. Could you, uh, tell me where it is?”
Ms. Brock’s face broke into a smile, “Of course! It’s down the hall, second door on your left. You can’t miss it.”
Relief (宽慰) washed over Jake’s face. “Thank you, Ms. Brock.”
As the weeks passed, Jake turned to Ms. Brock for help more often. Whether it was talking about his homework or simply sharing his thoughts on the latest book they were studying, he found comfort in her patient encouragement. Ms. Brock, in turn, noticed Jake’s growing confidence.
Everything went on well till a rainy Thursday afternoon. Jake held a test paper in his hand after class. There was a C on the paper. Ms. Brock walked to him.
“Everything alright, Jake?”
Jake replied, “I... I’m not sure if I can keep up with the class. The reading is getting harder, and I feel I’m falling behind.”
Ms. Brock’s expression softened,“ Jake, learning is not a race. It’s about understanding at your own speed. You’re doing great-I see your hard work every day.”
Jake lowered his head, “I just... I want to do well. But sometimes it feels difficult to deal with it.”
注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Ms. Brock nodded knowingly.

【原文】M: I can’t tell you how many times someone has said to me, “Man, what a cake job! I mean, you only work 4 hours a day!” It’s true that I do a morning program from 6:00 am to 10:00 am, but it isn’t all my work time each day. I get up at 2:00 am then I take a quick shower and sit down at my computer. I collect program information and update our program’s website until 4:30 am. I arrive at the radio station at 5:00 am and spend the next hour preparing, recording and so on. The program begins at 6:00 am and goes until 10:00 am. After that often I can walk out soon, but sometimes there are meetings. Then I go home and answer program e-mails, have lunch and have a short rest. Then at about 4:00 pm, I begin preparing for my next day. It really lasts two hours. So, the 4-hour-day work timetable is much longer than most people think. Luckily, I really enjoy what I do. It’s not only my work, but also my hobby.

Leah Brown aged 36 fell several hundred feet from Oregon’s highest mountain right before the eyes of a group of volunteer rescue workers who rushed to her aid and helped save her life.
The woman was coming down a popular path (小路) on Mt. Hood, about 70 miles east of Portland, on Saturday morning, according to the local police. Mt. Hood is the highest in Oregon, standing at around11.240 feet.
The fall was seen by members of Portland Mountain Rescue (PMR), a volunteer organization focused on helping people in mountainous areas. The group called 911 and rushed to the woman, providing medical care. They helped keep the woman warm for seven hours as the police worked to get her off the mountain safely. Finally, the woman was evacuated (转移) to a parking lot at 9:30 pm and taken to a hospital.
The climber, Leah Brown, said she didn’t know what caused her fall. “I can only guess it was either an ice tool or a crampon (冰爪) that didn’t land and stick like it should have, so I became detached from the mountain,” Brown said. “The thing I’d like to most stress is my appreciation for the members of PMR who evacuated me and took good care of me the whole time,” Brown added. “They saved my life. ”
In a statement after the rescue, PMR warned of the dangerous winter conditions at the mountain. “The short days and lower temperatures mean that the snow tends to be very hard and icy, and the conditions tend to be much steeper. Climbing the mountain in icy conditions is much more difficult,” the group said.
24. What happened to Brown on Saturday morning?
A. She lost her way in a forest. B. She hurt her eye unexpectedly.
C. She failed to call her family. D. She fell down on a downhill path.
25. What does the underlined word “detached” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Different. B. Hidden. C. Separated. D. Tired.
26. How did Brown feel about the members of PMR?
A. Thankful. B. Regretful. C. Surprised. D. Concerned.
27. What did PMR intend to tell us?
A. Climbing requires teamwork. B. Climbing in winter is too risky.
C We must remain positive in hard times. D. We can admire the view on sunny days.
【答案】24. D 25. C 26. A 27. B

Our two-year investigation into caged (关在笼中) tigers in America sent us through 32 US states—with some truly shocking experiences. But as the deadline neared, I still needed a powerful and hopeful image.
When we began our reporting in 2017—Sharon, writing; me taking photos; and our son, NickRuggia, filming—more tigers likely lived in cages in the US than remained in the wild. The number ranged from 5,000 to 10,000, but without strict government oversight, no one knew for sure.
Roadside zoos that allowed tourists to take pictures of young tigers were the main cause of what’s been called a US tiger crisis (危机). Caged cats often ended up in the illegal wildlife trade. Young tigers, parted from their mothers at birth, were fed poorly and touched by hundreds of people. When they grew too big and dangerous to pet at around 12 weeks, young tigers were put on show, or simply disappeared.
While we documented the unpleasant part of this industry, we also wanted to show the good life these impressive animals could have. With two weeks left before my deadline, I headed to the Wild Animal Sanctuary near Denver, where well-cared cats walked freely in their habitat.
There I met Clay, Daniel, and Enzo, three of 39 tigers rescued from an animal park in Oklahoma. These nearly grown cats raced beside our car, which I’d seen only in the wild. It was a hot July day and soon two of the cats jumped into a pool to cool off. The third rested beside them on the ground. I crossed the road to take a picture of them. Then quietly, I came up close, trying not to disturb (打扰) them. I had the shot.
28. Why did the author start her reporting?
A. To dig out the dark truth of caged tigers. B. To explore the amazing land in the country.
C. To tell people that baby tigers are harmless. D. To share the happy moment during the trip.
29. What is the main cause of the US tiger crisis according to the text?
A. Forest fires. B. Climate change. C. Roadside zoos. D. Water pollution.
30. What can we learn about these young tigers from paragraph 3?
A. They prefer to stay indoors. B. They are badly treated.
C. They get used to the changes. D. They are traded legally.
31. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning the Wild Animal Sanctuary?
A. To praise her family for their effort. B. To explain what the animals suffered.
C. To introduce a special kind of tigers. D. To show some tigers lead an easy life.
【答案】28. A 29. C 30. B 31. D
【解析】

People tend to use trees for papermaking. But maybe electronics (电子) engineers are missing out on something here. “It turns out that two major building blocks of wood have a lot of electrical qualities,” says Magnus Berggren, a professor at Linköping University.
His team has been working to make parts for electronics from the forest. Right now, they’re focusing on two materials of trees. The first material is cellulose, which can make energy. Lignin, the second material, can store that energy, just as a battery does. The team has found when pressed, cellulose can produce electricity.
Some device must then store the electricity until it’s needed. Batteries can do this. But batteries aren’t very green. They have harmful materials. That’s where lignin comes in.
Batteries cause electrons to flow from one place to another, which can produce electricity. In a typical battery, one material must give electrons. The other must accept them. Lignin can do both. A weak acid (酸) encourages lignin to produce electrons. “With a metal wire (金属线) to guide those electrons, you’ll have electricity,” says Berggren.
Berggren’s team use this quality to create its new lignin-based battery. Typical batteries use a metal wire as a path to guide the flow of electrons into or out of the device. But since Berggren wants to make a battery of the forest, he looks for a natural way. Once again, he turns to cellulose.
This natural material can serve as a wire-like path for electrons. To make it work well, Berggren lines them with another chemical known as PEDOT, which isn’t from a tree. But when PEDOT is added to cellulose, they can conduct electricity like a wire. “With a weak acid, now you have a battery,” Berggren says. “And two of its three materials come from the forest.”
Berggren can imagine one day having mobile phone batteries made largely from forest products. Tree-based electronics might also be useful in lighting.
32. What is cellulose used to do in the study?
A. Act as a weak acid. B. Collect rainwater.
C. Produce electricity. D. Make quality paper.
33. Which best describes the new battery?
A. Well-received. B. Eco-friendly. C. Harmful. D. Heavy.
34. What can we expect of tree-based electronics?
A. They may change farming practices. B. They might save a lot of wood.
C. They would serve the elderly. D. They could light the rooms.
35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. A Green Way to Make and Store Energy B. An Attempt to Raise Power Production
C. Practical Suggestions on Planting Trees D. Recent Advances in Mobile Phones
【答案】32. C 33. B 34. D 35. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了利用森林产品制作电子产品的科技新闻,介绍了研究人员利用木材中的纤维素和木质素,开发出新的基于木质素的电池,并探讨了这种电池的原理和未来应用前景。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The first material is cellulose, which can make energy. Lignin, the second material, can store that energy, just as a battery does. The team has found when pressed, cellulose can produce electricity. (第一种材料是纤维素,它可以制造能量。第二种材料木质素可以像电池一样储存能量。研究小组发现,当被挤压时,纤维素可以发电。)”可知,纤维素可以用来发电。故选C。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第五段“Berggren’s team use this quality to create its new lignin-based battery. Typical batteries use a metal wire as a path to guide the flow of electrons into or out of the device. But since Berggren wants to make a battery of the forest, he looks for a natural way. Once again, he turns to cellulose.( Berggren的团队利用这种品质创造了新的木质素基电池。典型的电池使用金属线作为引导电子流入或流出设备的路径。但既然Berggren想要用森林做电池,他就寻找一种自然的方式。他再一次转向纤维素。)”可推断出,Berggren的团队所创造的新的电池是环保的。故选B。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Tree-based electronics might also be useful in lighting.(基于树木的电子设备可能在照明方面也很有用。)”可知,利用木质纤维素产生的电能可用于照明。故选D。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“His team has been working to make parts for electronics from the forest. Right now, they’re focusing on two materials of trees. The first material is cellulose, which can make energy. Lignin, the second material, can store that energy, just as a battery does. The team has found when pressed, cellulose can produce electricity. (他的团队一直致力于用森林制造电子元件。现在,他们专注于两种材料的树木。第一种材料是纤维素,它可以制造能量。第二种材料木质素可以像电池一样储存能量。研究小组发现,当被挤压时,纤维素可以发电。)”以及第三段“Some device must then store the electricity until it’s needed. Batteries can do this. But batteries aren’t very green. They have harmful materials. That’s where lignin comes in. (一些设备必须储存电能,以备不时之需。电池可以做到这一点。但是电池并不是很环保。他们有有害物质。这就是木质素的用武之地。)”再结合全文内容可知,文章要讲述了利用森林产品制作电子产品,尤其是利用木质素制作电池,这种电池既环保又可持续,因此A选项“A Green Way to Make and Store Energy(一种制造和储存能源的绿色方式)”最符合文章主旨,是最佳标题。故选A。

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。
Imagine mountains enveloped in silver water, shining in the spring sun. Summer sees the mountains turn bright green with growing rice. During autumn, these mountains are gold, and in winter they are covered with white frost. ____36____
These terraces (梯田) were built by the local Zhuang and Yao people. Starting in the Yuan Dynasty, work on the terraces took hundreds of years. ____37____ Reaching as far as the eye can see, these terraces cover tall mountains, often from the bottom to the very top.
____38____ Firstly, there are few large flat areas of land in the region. Building the terraces could increase the areas to grow rice. Secondly, although the region has plenty of rain, the mountains are steep (陡峭) and the soil is shallow. The fat terraces help catch the rainwater and prevent the soil from being washed away.
But perhaps the most important is the way people have worked in peace with nature. The terraces are cleverly designed, with hundreds of waterways connecting with each other. During the rainy season, rainwater moves down the mountains and into the terraces along these waterways. The sun heats the water and turns it into vapour (水蒸气). ____39____ These terraces also provide a perfect environment for birds and fish, some of which feed on insects harmful to crops.
Although modern technology helps produce more crops, these terraces still mean a lot to the local people for whom traditions hold much value. ____40____ Thus, new generations continue to use ancient methods of agriculture to maintain the terraces. Today, the Longji Rice Terraces attract thousands of visitors to admire this great wonder created by people and nature working together.
A. Terraces were built to collect the rain.
B. These are the colors of the Longji Terraces.
C. This knowledge is passed down through families.
D It wasn’t completed until the early Qing Dynasty.
E. So how did people change the entire mountains into terraces?
F. This forms clouds from which rain falls down onto the terraces again.
G. So why did these people take trouble turning the entire mountains into terraces?
【答案】36. B 37. D 38. G 39. F 40. C

57. has 58. called
59. be found
60. happy 61. their
62. the 63. cities
64. who##that
65. by
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述是迷你KTV(Mini KTV)的兴起及其受欢迎程度。
【56题详解】
考查动名词。句意:在整个亚洲,数以百万计的人喜欢在当地的KTV里尽情歌唱。enjoy doing sth.是固定短语,意为“喜欢做某事”,因此空格处用动名词作宾语,故填singing。
【57题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:唱歌,享受食物和饮料,每个人都玩得很开心。由are可知,句子时态是一般现在时,主语everyone是不定代词,谓语动词用单数,因此空格处用has,故填has。
【58题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:现在,有一种新型的KTV叫做迷你KTV。句中谓语是is,空格处用非谓语动词,a new type of KTV和call之间是逻辑动宾关系,因此空格处用过去分词表被动,故填called。
【59题详解】
考查被动语态。句意:迷你KTV只有电话亭那么大,可以在中国和韩国的购物中心找到。迷你KTV是被找到,句子用被动语态,空前有情态动词can,因此空格处用be found。故填be found。
【60题详解】
考查形容词。句意:迷你ktv价格低廉,提供了一种既实惠又快乐的打发时间的方式。空格处用形容词作定语,修饰名词way,happiness的形容词是happy,意为“快乐的”,故填happy。
【61题详解】
考查物主代词。句意:最好的部分是顾客可以用手机支付。they和phones之间是所属关系,因此空格处用形容词性物主代词their修饰phones,故填their。
【62题详解】
考查定冠词。句意:据一些专家称,截至2017年6月,仅在中国,使用迷你KTV的人数就已超过1000万。根据语境可知,句子表示“据一些专家称,截至2017年6月,仅在中国,使用迷你KTV的人数就已超过1000万”,the number of意为“……的数量”,因此空格处用定冠词the,故填the。
【63题详解】
考查名词的复数。句意:像Minik这样的某些品牌机器已经扩展到500个城市。空前有500,空格处用复数cities,故填cities。
【64题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:这对那些喜欢唱歌但可能羞于被别人听到的顾客来说是个好消息。空格处引导的是限制性定语从句,从句中缺少主语,先行词customers是人,因此空格处用关系代词who/that。故填who/that。
【65题详解】
考查介词。句意:这对那些喜欢唱歌但可能羞于被别人听到的顾客来说是个好消息。根据语境可知,句子表示“这对那些喜欢唱歌但可能羞于被别人听到的顾客来说是个好消息”,空格处意为“被”,用介词by。故填by。

67. 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。
Jake was new to the school-a shy freshman feeling at a loss for high school life. He often found himself lost in the sea of faces and lockers. Ms. Brock, his English teacher, noticed this quiet young man from the first day of class.
One afternoon, Jake was wandering (徘徊) the halls, trying to find the library. He noticed Ms. Brock in the office grading papers with full attention. It seemed that Ms. Brock had forgotten the world around her. Keeping up his courage, Jake came to her.
“Um, excuse me, Ms. Brock?” Jake’s voice was shaking slightly.
Ms. Brock looked up, her eyes filled with warmth.“ Yes, Jake? How can I help you?”
Jake hesitated (犹豫), in broken sentences, “I... I’m trying to find the library. Could you, uh, tell me where it is?”
Ms. Brock’s face broke into a smile, “Of course! It’s down the hall, second door on your left. You can’t miss it.”
Relief (宽慰) washed over Jake’s face. “Thank you, Ms. Brock.”
As the weeks passed, Jake turned to Ms. Brock for help more often. Whether it was talking about his homework or simply sharing his thoughts on the latest book they were studying, he found comfort in her patient encouragement. Ms. Brock, in turn, noticed Jake’s growing confidence.
Everything went on well till a rainy Thursday afternoon. Jake held a test paper in his hand after class. There was a C on the paper. Ms. Brock walked to him.
“Everything alright, Jake?”
Jake replied, “I... I’m not sure if I can keep up with the class. The reading is getting harder, and I feel I’m falling behind.”
Ms. Brock’s expression softened,“ Jake, learning is not a race. It’s about understanding at your own speed. You’re doing great-I see your hard work every day.”
Jake lowered his head, “I just... I want to do well. But sometimes it feels difficult to deal with it.”
注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Ms. Brock nodded knowingly.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
With the score, Jake rushed to Ms. Brock’s office excitedly.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Ms. Brock nodded knowingly. “It’s OK to feel a sense of loss sometimes. It means you’re challenging yourself. But remember, I’m here to help. We’ll work out the problem together, alright? I believe you can make it.” Jake raised his eyes from his paper slowly, with a small smile on his face. From then on, Jake put his whole heart into his schoolwork. Another test came as expected. And two days later, Jake got the test result—A. His hard work and Ms. Brock’s encouragement paid off.
With the score, Jake rushed to Ms. Brock’s office excitedly. “I just want to say... thank you, Ms. Brock. For everything,” Jake said. “You’ve grown so much, Jake. Remember, learning doesn’t stop here. Keep exploring, keep questioning, and never stop believing in yourself,” Ms. Brock said with pride. Jake nodded, “I will. Thank you, Ms. Brock.” As Jake turned to leave, Ms. Brock called after him,“ Oh, and Jake?” He turned back. “You’ll always have a home here,” she said softly. Jake walked out of the office, carrying with Ms. Brock’s invaluable support.
