In this challenging and interesting book,Christopher Mason argues that we have a duty to do just that.We have a responsibility to act—not only for us human beings but for all other creatures on which we depend. Mason argues that our technology that has enabled us to build rockets and land on other planets can be applied to redesigning biology so that we can live on those planets.And he makes a 500- year plan for carrying out the huge project. As they are today,our weak human bodies could never survive(幸存)travel to another planet.Mason describes the bad effects that long-term space travel had on astronaut Scott Kelly, who returned from a year on the International Space Station with changes to his blood,bones,and genes(基因) . Mason suggests a ten-period,500-year program that would engineer our body so that humans can stand the extreme(极端的)environments of outer space— with the final goal of achieving human settlement of new solar systems.He makes a roadmap of which solar systems to visit first, and uses biotechnology and genetics to offer a unique vision of the universe to come. Weight:620g Size:203 x 137mm 1. What does Mason suggest doing in his book? A. Preventing creatures from dying out. B. Looking for a new home in space. C. Protecting our home planet. D. Watching over the activities of the sun. 2. Which of the following is unclear about the book? A. The publisher. B. The price. C. The weight. D. The author. 3. Who will buy this book probably? A. People who care about the environment. B. People who pay more attention to animals. C. People who are interested in human history. D. People who want to know more about space. B Anna Devolld likes bees, butterflies, ladybugs, hummingbirds and even bats. The 17-year-old prize winner is now helping small things to make a difference. Many TV programs and newspapers have featured her about her efforts to introduce the vital role pollinators (授粉者) play. You might say she’s been busy as a bee. She has created and helped plant over 2,000 free Pollinator Packs, each containing six different pollinator-friendly seedlings (幼苗). She also regularly visits local classrooms to teach students about pollinators and to help them plant their own Pollinator Packs. As a teenager, Anna worried about the little things that keep our world beautiful and our orchards (果园) producing food. Anna’s solution is to increase habitats that attract pollinators and to educate the next generation about the importance of creating pollinator-friendly spaces. Her first project was creating activities and coloring books for kids to help them understand how important pollinators are to our planet. Next, she created Pollinator Packs: plants that attract bees and other pollinators to your garden. It wasn’t long before she was part of community councils encouraging the planting of pollinators in communities and roadside hallways. She now serves on her local government’s environmental advisory commission. “One out of every three bites of food we take is dependent on pollinators,” Anna tells us. “Sadly, every one of these creatures is declining at an alarming rate.” We all can make a difference. As Anna says, “Find something you are passionate about, no matter how small, and see how you can change the world.” So, the next time you take a bite out of a delicious apple or peach, or even better, enjoy your favorite fruit in a home-baked pie, think about all the little creatures that made it happen. Then think about Anna and how one teenage girl is making sure millions of pollinators are happy and productive. 4. What does Anna do to make a difference? A. She gets pollinators known to people. B. She makes speeches on TV programs. C. She promotes her products among kids. D. She sponsors the locals to grow plants. 5. What does Pollinator Packs probably refer to? A. A pack of pollinating bees. B. A group of beneficial insects. C. Some pollinator-friendly plants. D. Community-based fruit gardens. 6. Which of the following might Anna agree with? A. Nature helps one grow up. B. Even small effort counts. C. Learning benefits children. D. Curiosity tops everything. 7. What does the author advise us to do in the last paragraph? A. Enjoy our time with fruits. B. Plant more trees around. C. Learn from nature. D. Be nice to pollinators. C There are so many expressions in American English that sound good but actually are not. “Face the music” is a good example. When someone says they have to face the music, it does not mean they are going to a musical show or a concert. To “face the music” means accepting the bad results of behavior. Imagine a friend asks you to take care of her beautiful red sports car. She gives you the keys and says, “Thanks so much for watching my car while I’m away. But please do not drive it. It is a very fast car and you are not on the insurance (保险).” But you do not listen. You want to show it to some friends and pretend (假装) the car is yours. So, you drive it around town one night. As bad luck would have it, you lose control of the car and drive it into a stop sign. The damage is serious. When your friend returns, you must tell her what you have done and “face the music”. The “music” here is the result of your behavior. It could be losing her friendship or paying for repairs to her sports car or both. Whatever the “music” is, you must face it. There are other American expressions that mean the same as “face the music”. “Take your medicine” means accepting the results of something bad you have done. And if someone says, “You made your bed. Now lie in it.” He means you created a bad situation and now you will experience the results, or as we say in American spoken English, you must deal with it! “Pay the piper” also means the same as “face the music”. But that expression has its own very interesting beginning. We will talk about that in the next Words and Their Stories. 8. What’s the main idea of this passage? A. To invite a friend to go to a musical performance. B. To tell people how to deal with a bad situation. C. To give people a lesson on an action. D. To introduce some expressions. 9 Which action belongs to “take your medicine”? A. You broke the traffic rules and were liable to a fine. B. You worked hard but failed in the exam. C. You caught a cold and took some medicine. D. You moved to a new city and lost touch with your old friends. 10. Which of the following expressions doesn’t have the same meaning with the others? A. Face the music. B. Take your medicine. C. Make your bed. D. Pay the piper. 11. The next programme may talk about ________. A. other words and their stories B. the beginning of “pay the piper” C. the wider use of “face the music” D. an example of “take your medicine” D Are we getting more stupid? According to Gerald Crabtree, a scientist at Stanford University in the US, we are. You may not want to hear this, but Crabtree believes that human intelligence reached its peak more than 2,000 years ago and ever since then has been going downhill. “If an average Greek from 1,000 BC were transported to modern times, he or she would be one of the brightest among us,” Crabtree told The Guardian. At the heart of Crabtree’s thinking is a simple idea. In the past, intelligence was critical for survival when our ancestors had to avoid dangerous animals and hunt for food. The difference of being smart or stupid is often life or death. However, after the spread of agriculture when our ancestors began to live in dense farming communities, the need to keep their intelligence in peak condition gradually reduced. This is not hard to understand. Most of the time, pressure is what keeps us going — you need the pressure from your teachers to finish your homework; the pressure of looking pretty encourages you to lose weight when summer comes. And the same is true of our intelligence — if we think less, we become less smart. These mutations (变异) are harmful to our intelligence and they were all developed in the past 3,000 years. The other evidence that Crabtree holds is in our genes. He found that among the 2,000 to 5,000 genes that we have that determine human intelligence, there are two or more mutations in each of us. However, Crabtree’s theory has been criticized by some who say that earl humans may have better hunting and surviving abilities, but people today have developed more diverse intelligence. For example, spearing (用矛刺) a tiger doesn’t necessarily require more brainpower than playing chess or writing a poem. Moreover, the power of modern education means a lot more people have the opportunity to learn nowadays. “You wouldn’t get Stephen Hawking 2, 000 years ago. He just wouldn’t exist,” now Thomas Hills of the University of Warwick, UK, told Live Science. “But now we have people of his intellectual capacity doing things and making insights (洞察力) that we would never have achieved in our environment of evolutionary adaptation (进化适应).” 12. What is Crabtree’s recent finding according to the article? A. The Greeks from 1,000 BC could have been the smartest in human history. B. Our ancient ancestors had no better surviving abilities than we do nowadays. C. Humans have been getting steadily more intelligent since the invention of farfing. D. Mutations in genes that decide human intelligence have affected the development of intelligence. 13. According Crabtree, ancient humans . A. were forced to be smart due to natural selection pressures B. had much more genes that determine human Intelligence C. relied more on group intelligence than individual intelligence D. developed diverse intelligence to adapt to the hard realities 14. Some argue that Crabtree’s theory is false because they think A. people today are under much more pressure than early humans B. it’s unreasonable to compare hunter’s and a poet’s intelligence C. modern education is far more advanced than ancient education D. human intelligence nowadays is different from that of the distant past 15. What is Thomas Hill’s attitude toward Crabtree’s theory? A. He is for Crabtree’s theory. B. He is against Crabtree’s theory C. He is worried about Crabtree’s theory. D. He is confused about Crabtree’s theory. 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。 If you have a hard time getting along with your teachers, going to class can be a nightmare (噩梦).

When someone says they have to face the music, it does not mean they are going to a musical show or a concert. To “face the music” means accepting the bad results of behavior. Imagine a friend asks you to take care of her beautiful red sports car. She gives you the keys and says, “Thanks so much for watching my car while I’m away. But please do not drive it. It is a very fast car and you are not on the insurance (保险).” But you do not listen. You want to show it to some friends and pretend (假装) the car is yours. So, you drive it around town one night. As bad luck would have it, you lose control of the car and drive it into a stop sign. The damage is serious. When your friend returns, you must tell her what you have done and “face the music”. The “music” here is the result of your behavior. It could be losing her friendship or paying for repairs to her sports car or both. Whatever the “music” is, you must face it. There are other American expressions that mean the same as “face the music”. “Take your medicine” means accepting the results of something bad you have done. And if someone says, “You made your bed. Now lie in it.” He means you created a bad situation and now you will experience the results, or as we say in American spoken English, you must deal with it! “Pay the piper” also means the same as “face the music”. But that expression has its own very interesting beginning. We will talk about that in the next Words and Their Stories. 8. What’s the main idea of this passage? A. To invite a friend to go to a musical performance. B. To tell people how to deal with a bad situation. C. To give people a lesson on an action. D. To introduce some expressions. 9. Which action belongs to “take your medicine”? A. You broke the traffic rules and were liable to a fine. B. You worked hard but failed in the exam. C. You caught a cold and took some medicine. D. You moved to a new city and lost touch with your old friends. 10. Which of the following expressions doesn’t have the same meaning with the others? A. Face the music. B. Take your medicine. C. Make your bed. D. Pay the piper. 11. The next programme may talk about ________. A. other words and their stories B. the beginning of “pay the piper” C. the wider use of “face the music” D. an example of “take your medicine” 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了美式英语中许多表达听起来很简单，但其实真实含义并非如此的一些表达。 【8题详解】 主旨大意题。根据首段“There are so many expressions in American English that sound good but actually are not. (美式英语中有太多的表达听起来很简单，但实际上却不是这样。)”及全文可知，本文要介绍美式英语中许多表达听起来很简单，但其实真实含义并非如此的一些表达，即文章介绍一些表达。故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中““Take your medicine” means accepting the results of something bad you have done. (Take your medicine意思是接受你做了坏事的结果。)”可知，take your medicine 的意思是接受你所做的坏事的结果。四个选项所给的例子中A项（你违反了交通规则，需付罚金）和“take your medicine”的意思相符。故选A。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“To “face the music” means accepting the bad results of behavior. (“face the music”的意思是接受行为的坏结果。)”可知，face the music的意思是接受行为的坏结果；根据第五段第一句““Take your medicine” means accepting the results of something bad you have done. (“take your medicine”的意思是接受你所做的坏事的结果。)”可知，take your medicine的意思也是接受行为的坏结果；根据第五段第二句““You made your bed. Now lie in it.” He means you created a bad situation and now you will experience the results, or as we say in American spoken English, you must deal with it! (如果有人说，“You made your bed. Now lie in it.”他的意思是你创造了一个糟糕的局面，现在你将经历结果，或者正如我们在美国口语中所说的，你必须处理它!)”可知，“Make your bed.”意思是你创造了一个糟糕的局面，现在你将经历结果，必须处理它；根据最后一段第一句““Pay the piper” also means the same as “face the music”.( “Pay the piper”和“face the music”意思相同。)”可知，Pay the piper和Face the music，Take your medicine意思相同，意为“接受行为的坏结果”。分析可知，C项与A、B、D意思不同。故选C 。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一句““Pay the piper” also means the same as “face the music”. But that expression has its own very interesting beginning. We will talk about that in the next Words and Their Stories. (“Pay the piper”和“face the music”意思相同。但是这个表达有一个非常有趣的开始。我们将在下一期词汇掌故节目中讨论这个问题。)”可知，下一段要讲的是Pay the piper的起源。故选B。 D Are we getting more stupid? According to Gerald Crabtree, a scientist at Stanford University in the US, we are. You may not want to hear this, but Crabtree believes that human intelligence reached its peak more than 2,000 years ago and ever since then has been going downhill. “If an average Greek from 1,000 BC were transported to modern times, he or she would be one of the brightest among us,” Crabtree told The Guardian. At the heart of Crabtree’s thinking is a simple idea. In the past, intelligence was critical for survival when our ancestors had to avoid dangerous animals and hunt for food. The difference of being smart or stupid is often life or death. However, after the spread of agriculture when our ancestors began to live in dense farming communities, the need to keep their intelligence in peak condition gradually reduced. This is not hard to understand. Most of the time, pressure is what keeps us going — you need the pressure from your teachers to finish your homework; the pressure of looking pretty encourages you to lose weight when summer comes. And the same is true of our intelligence — if we think less, we become less smart. These mutations (变异) are harmful to our intelligence and they were all developed in the past 3,000 years. The other evidence that Crabtree holds is in our genes. He found that among the 2,000 to 5,000 genes that we have that determine human intelligence, there are two or more mutations in each of us. However, Crabtree’s theory has been criticized by some who say that earl humans may have better hunting and surviving abilities, but people today have developed more diverse intelligence. For example, spearing (用矛刺) a tiger doesn’t necessarily require more brainpower than playing chess or writing a poem. Moreover, the power of modern education means a lot more people have the opportunity to learn nowadays. “You wouldn’t get Stephen Hawking 2, 000 years ago. He just wouldn’t exist,” now Thomas Hills of the University of Warwick, UK, told Live Science. “But now we have people of his intellectual capacity doing things and making insights (洞察力) that we would never have achieved in our environment of evolutionary adaptation (进化适应).” 12. What is Crabtree’s recent finding according to the article? A. The Greeks from 1,000 BC could have been the smartest in human history. B. Our ancient ancestors had no better surviving abilities than we do nowadays. C. Humans have been getting steadily more intelligent since the invention of farfing. D. Mutations in genes that decide human intelligence have affected the development of intelligence. 13. According Crabtree, ancient humans . A. were forced to be smart due to natural selection pressures B. had much more genes that determine human Intelligence C. relied more on group intelligence than individual intelligence D. developed diverse intelligence to adapt to the hard realities 14. Some argue that Crabtree’s theory is false because they think A. people today are under much more pressure than early humans B. it’s unreasonable to compare hunter’s and a poet’s intelligence C. modern education is far more advanced than ancient education D. human intelligence nowadays is different from that of the distant past 15. What is Thomas Hill’s attitude toward Crabtree’s theory? A. He is for Crabtree’s theory. B. He is against Crabtree’s theory C. He is worried about Crabtree’s theory. D. He is confused about Crabtree’s theory. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要介绍了Crabtree发现由于决定人类智力的基因变异，现在的人类相比过去智力下降，但这一观点遭到批评，另一些人认为今天的人类已经发展出了更多样化的智力。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“These mutations (变异) are harmful to our intelligence and they were all developed in the past 3,000 years. The other evidence that Crabtree holds is in our genes. He found that among the 2,000 to 5,000 genes that we have that determine human intelligence, there are two or more mutations in each of us.(这些变异对我们的智力有害，它们都是在过去3000年发展起来的。Crabtree持有的另一个证据是我们的基因。他发现，在决定人类智力的2000到5000个基因中，我们每个人都有两个或更多的变异。)”可知，Crabtree的研究发现决定人类智力的2000到5000个基因中，我们每个人都有两个或更多的变异，这些变异对我们的智力有害；由此可知，Crabtree最近的发现是决定人类智力的基因变异影响了智力的发展。故选D项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“In the past, intelligence was critical for survival when our ancestors had to avoid dangerous animals and hunt for food. The difference of being smart or stupid is often life or death.(在过去，当我们的祖先不得不躲避危险的动物并寻找食物时，智力对生存至关重要。聪明与愚蠢的区别往往是生与死。)”可知，我们的祖先为了躲避危险的动物和狩猎食物，不得不变得聪明，因为聪明与愚蠢的区别往往决定生或死，由此可知，根据Crabtree的说法，古代人类由于自然选择的压力，他们被迫变得聪明。故选A项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“However, Crabtree’s theory has been criticized by some who say that earl humans may have better hunting and surviving abilities, but people today have developed more diverse intelligence. For example, spearing (用矛刺) a tiger doesn’t necessarily require more brainpower than playing chess or writing a poem. Moreover, the power of modern education means a lot more people have the opportunity to learn nowadays.(然而，克拉布特里的理论遭到了一些人的批评，他们认为早期的人类可能有更好的狩猎和生存能力，但今天的人类已经发展出了更多样化的智力。例如，用长矛刺死一只老虎并不需要比下棋或写诗更多的脑力。此外，现代教育的力量意味着现在有更多的人有机会学习。)”可知，一些人批评了Crabtree的理论，他们认为当今的人类智力与过去有所不同，过去人类可能有更好的狩猎和生存能力，但今天的人们已经发展出了更多样化的智力，现代教育让更多人有机会学习；由此可知，一些人认为Crabtree的理论是错误的，因为他们认为当今的人类智力与遥远的过去有所不同。故选D项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““You wouldn’t get Stephen Hawking 2, 000 years ago. He just wouldn’t exist,” now Thomas Hills of the University of Warwick, UK, told Live Science. “But now we have people of his intellectual capacity doing things and making insights (洞察力) that we would never have achieved in our environment of evolutionary adaptation (进化适应).”(‘2000年前你不会得到斯蒂芬·霍金，他根本不存在。’英国华威大学的托马斯·希尔斯在接受《生活科学》采访时表示：‘但现在，我们有了具有他的智力能力的人，他们在做事情和提出见解，这是我们在进化适应环境中永远无法做到的。)”可知，Thomas Hills认为现在我们拥有了史蒂芬·霍金这样的智力能力的人，他们在做事情和提出见解，而这是我们在2000年前无法做到的；由此可知，Thomas Hills并不赞同现在人类智力下降的观点，他对Crabtree理论的态度是反对的。故选B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。 If you have a hard time getting along with your teachers, going to class can be a nightmare (噩梦).

F 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了如何能帮助你和老师建立友好的关系。 【16题详解】 根据下文“If you appear angry or unhappy in front of them, the conflict is unlikely to be solved.(如果你在他们面前表现得生气或不开心，冲突不太可能得到解决。)”可推断出在老师面前要表现的友好，才能解决问题，故选D选项“在交谈中一定要有礼貌并表现出尊重。”符合题意，故选D。 【17题详解】 根据段首句“Learn to understand their teaching methods.( 学会理解他们的教学方法。)”可知本段谈论理解老师的教学方法。下文“If you are used to a very relaxing class, learning to be successful in a strict environment is difficult and vice versa (反之亦然). In most cases, it is necessary to give yourself some time to get used to a new teaching method.(如果你习惯了一个非常轻松的课堂，在一个严格的环境中学习成功是困难的，反之亦然。在大多数情况下，需要给自己一些时间来适应一种新的教学方法。)”所以G选项“有时候，你可能不喜欢一些老师，因为他们的教学方法。”和下文紧密相连，符合本段主旨，故选G。 【18题详解】 根据下文“Teachers have many years of teaching experience in the subjects they teach. So discussing the best ways to succeed in the classroom may give you the opportunity to see the best instructors.( 教师在他们所教的科目上有多年的教学经验。因此，讨论在课堂上取得成功的最佳方法可能会让你有机会见到最好的老师。) ”可知老师有很多经验，所以要问老师一些如何在课堂上做好的方法，B选项“问问你的老师你怎样才能在课堂上做得好。”符合语境，故选B。 【19题详解】 上文“I’ve always wondered why people become teachers.(我一直想知道为什么人们会成为老师。)”指出“我”不理解为什么一些人想成为老师，A项“这似乎是一项艰巨的工作。”承接上文，解释“我”不理解的原因，因为老师这一职业是个艰巨的工作，“我”不理解为什么一些人选择做老师，故选A。 【20题详解】 根据段首句“Ask about your teachers’ hobbies.(询问老师的爱好。)”可知本段主要是讲了解老师的爱好，F选项“共同的兴趣爱好可以帮助你从不同的角度看待老师。”符合语境，说明找出共同的兴趣，这样才能帮助你更好的了解老师，故选F。 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。 Meek Mill is an American hip hop recording artist from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Mr Swales was about to call on Jodie when the girls in the back row burst out laughing. Shirley yelled, “Jodie’s daddy is a garbageman! Pee-yoo!” Everybody in the class laughed out loud except Jodie. She felt her face turn bright red. She looked around the whole classroom. Everyone was laughing. Some kids were even holding their noses. Mr Swales was angry. He almost never raised his voice, but now he did. “Silence! I want everybody quiet this instant.” The laughter stopped immediately. “You should be ashamed of yourselves,” Mr Swales said. “Being a garbageman, I mean, a sanitation engineer, is a difficult and extremely useful job. We should all be grateful to Mr Harris. Where would we be without him? Up to our ears in garbage, that’s where. How would you like that?” “Pee-yoo!” somebody said. A few kids started laughing again. “It’s not funny,” Mr Swales went on. “Garbage is a serious matter. I think you all owe Jodie an apology. And after that, you’re all going to write Jodie’s father, Mr Harris, a nice letter to tell him how much you appreciate what he does for all of us.” Everybody moaned (抱怨). Everyone said sorry to Jodie, but Jodie could tell they didn’t really mean it. Her face was burning red and she felt like crying. Mr Swales came to her and said, “Let’s go out in the hall, so we can have a private talk.” Jodie couldn’t hold back any more. She started crying out in the hall. “I’m sorry this happened,” he said. “But remember, hard work done well is something to be proud of. There’s nothing wrong with being a garbageman… a sanitation engineer, absolutely not.” 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。 Jodie’s father came to walk her home from school as usual, but she didn’t run up to him the way she always did. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Next day, Jodie went to work with her father. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Jodie’s father came to walk her home from school as usual, but she didn’t run up to him the way she always did. When they reached home, Jodie went to her room and cried for a long time. Her father came into her room. “What happened, Jodie? Why are you so sad?” Jodie was embarrassed and didn’t want to hurt her father’s feelings. Her father sat on the bed and put his hand on her shoulder. “It’s OK, sweetie. You can tell me everything.” “The other kids laughed at me because you are a garbageman.” Jodie looked at her father. He didn’t seem angry, hurt or sad. “Well then,” he said, “tomorrow is Saturday, why not come work with me.” Next day, Jodie went to work with her father. The place really smelt too bad. However, everybody there was working hard, and they seemed to have a good time. Jodie’s father handed her a pair of gloves, then she began to work. It was fun, but also hard work. Jodie’s arms soon got tired. At last, no more garbage was left and Jodie felt very happy. “Garbage is disgusting, but when we clear it away, everything’s nice and clean. You can make yourself happy only by making others happy. That’s why I like being a garbageman so much.” Now whenever someone asks Jodie what her daddy does, she says, “He’s a garbageman! Everybody makes garbage, but my daddy takes it away!” 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了发生在主人公乔迪身上的故事。一天，乔迪的老师问学生们长大之后想做什么，大家哄堂大笑，因为乔迪的父亲是一个垃圾工。乔迪感到很难过，这时，老师制止了大家的行为，并告诉他们垃圾工这个职业也是同样值得尊重的，并让大家向乔迪道歉。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“朱迪的父亲像往常一样送她放学回家，但她没有像往常那样跑过去”可知，第一段可描写乔迪向父亲讲述了学校发生的事以及父亲对她的安慰。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天，朱迪和她父亲一起去上班。”可知，第二段可描写乔迪和她父亲一起清理垃圾，并感受到了这份工作背后的快乐。 2.续写线索：遭到嘲笑--老师安慰--见到父亲--讲述原委--和父亲一起工作--感到快乐 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①嘲笑：laugh at/make fun of ②放：put/place ③玩的开心：have a good time/enjoy oneself 情绪类 ①生气的： angry/annoyed ②高兴的：happy/delighted 【点睛】【高分句型1】When they reached home, Jodie went to her room and cried for a long time.(运用了when引导时间状语从句) 【高分句型2】 Now whenever someone asks Jodie what her daddy does, she says, “He’s a garbageman!
