After rushing her to the hospital, her family received the tragic news that all families of that generation feared— their precious Chava had polio (小儿麻痹症) . Chava spent the next few months in hospital. Although she could breathe on her own after treatment, she was left paralyzed from the neck down. When she was nine, she was thrilled that she got the chance to go to school. However, it turned out that she was in a single room with a group of kids who all had mobility impairment. Some of those kids were also intellectually disabled. They weren’t even allowed to eat lunch in the cafeteria. Chava now has a communication consulting firm. She even wrote a memoir about her life, titled A Life Not with Standing. Chava became an advocate for disability rights and has dedicated her life to speaking out against discrimination of disabilities in the world. During the pandemic in 2020, Chava spent most offer time inside, starting a YouTube podcast (播客) focusing on one of her passions, music. There has been positive feedback from listeners who have been touched and inspired by the songs discussed on the podcast. “Chava played a fabulous song called Mother by Tom Paxton. I was listening to it while driving,” said Barbara Schumer, a follower of Chava’s podcast. “The lyrics were about adoption and I started sobbing in the car, since I have two children I adopted at birth. I wrote to her after that, and I think she’s a remarkable person.” Despite her disability, Chava said, “Having a disability is an important piece of who you are, and I’m not at all in favor of living my life as if the disability is not important. But it shouldn’t be the thing that holds me back from becoming stronger.” 4. What can we learn about Chava from the first two paragraphs? A. She showed signs of polio at birth. B. She was delayed in polio treatment. C. She didn’t have the right to education. D. She was not treated fairly at school. 5. Why does the author mention Barbara Schumer? A. To show Chava’s influence.

Devoted and positive. C. Honest and confident. D. Forgiving and patient. 7. What message does the text convey? A. Chance favors only the prepared mind. B. Every cloud has a silver lining. C. Misfortune doesn’t define who you are. D. Actions speak louder than words. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，文章讲述了Chava Willig Levy的故事，她三岁时因患小儿麻痹症导致瘫痪，但后来通过努力成为了一名残疾权益倡导者，并通过播客激励他人，展现了她积极面对生活的态度。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“However, it turned out that she was in a single room with a group of kids who all had mobility impairment. Some of those kids were also intellectually disabled. They weren’t even allowed to eat lunch in the cafeteria. (然而，事实证明，她被安排在一个单间里，与其他一群行动不便的孩子在一起，其中一些孩子还存在智力障碍。他们甚至不被允许在食堂吃午餐。)”可知，她在学校受到了不公平的待遇。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“The lyrics were about adoption and I started sobbing in the car, since I have two children I adopted at birth. I wrote to her after that, and I think she’s a remarkable person. (歌词是关于领养的，我在车里哭了起来，因为我有两个从出生就被我领养的孩子。之后我给她写了信，我觉得她是一个了不起的人。)”可知，Barbara Schumer被Chava的播客所感动，从而说明Chava的播客对她产生了积极的影响。因此，作者提到Barbara Schumer是为了展示Chava的影响力。故选A。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Having a disability is an important piece of who you are, and I’m not at all in favor of living my life as if the disability is not important. But it shouldn’t be the thing that holds me back from becoming stronger. (残疾是你身份的重要组成部分，我绝不同意过一种忽视残疾重要性的生活。但它也不应该成为阻碍我变得更强大的东西。)”及全文可知，Chava尽管身体残疾，但依然创办了咨询公司，写了一本关于自己生活的回忆录，并成为了一名残疾权益倡导者。她在疫情期间通过播客分享音乐，激励听众。这些行为表明她是一个投入且积极的人。故选B。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。据最后一段“Having a disability is an important piece of who you are, and I’m not at all in favor of living my life as if the disability is not important. But it shouldn’t be the thing that holds me back from becoming stronger. (残疾是你身份的重要组成部分，我绝不同意过一种忽视残疾重要性的生活。但它也不应该成为阻碍我变得更强大的东西。)”及全文可知，文章通过Chava的故事传达了一个核心信息：尽管她遭受了不幸，但她没有让不幸定义自己，而是积极面对生活，成为了一名倡导者和激励者。因此，文章传达的信息是“不幸不会定义你是谁”。故选C。 C A major scientific achievement has been recognized with the 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. This award was given to a team using machine learning to solve a big problem in biology: predicting and designing the 3D shapes of proteins. Most of this work was done at a tech company marking a notable shift that high-level scientific research can also originate outside traditional academic settings. Proteins are crucial for our bodies and are involved in almost every biological process. The shape of a protein determines its function. If a protein is shaped incorrectly, it can cause serious diseases like Alzheimer’s and diabetes. Historically, predicting a protein’s shape from its amino acid sequence (序列) was very difficult and puzzled scientists for decades. The breakthrough happened with A-Fold, a machine learning program that can accurately predict protein structures from their amino acid sequences. This tool has changed the field, providing insights into the structure of over 200 million proteins so far. This data is expected to speed up progress in medicine and drug development, opening new ways to treat diseases. The tech company’s success with A-Fold also underscores the growing impact of artificial intelligence in various scientific domains, showing that Al can tackle complex biological problems and contribute to critical advancements in health and medicine. The Nobel Prize committee awarded this work to highlight the value of combining different areas in science, where technology and biology meet to create amazing results. This achievement not only shows what AI can do but also sets an example for future scientific projects that combine technology with traditional research to address global problems. 8. Why was the team awarded the 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry? A. They discovered a cure for Alzheimer’s and diabetes. B. They analyzed the functions of essential body elements. C. They worked out protein structures with a machine learning program. D. They created a new way to treat diseases through traditional research. 9. Why is the shape of a protein critical to its function? A. It leads to the development of the diseases. B. It offers insights into the structure of protein. C. It speeds up the progress of medicine and drug. D. It affects the protein’s role in biological processes. 10. What does the underlined word “underscore” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Minimize. B. Highlight. C. Question. D. Overlook. 11. What possibility does the author imply about the future of scientific research? A. A new focus on solving biological problems. B. An amazing change in academic research settings. C. An increase in joint efforts between different fields. D. A lessened dependence on machine learning techniques. 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了AI预测和设计蛋白质结构获诺贝尔化学奖。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“This award was given to a team using machine learning to solve a big problem in biology: predicting and designing the 3D shapes of proteins. (这个奖项被授予了一个使用机器学习解决生物学中一个大问题的团队：预测和设计蛋白质的3D形状。)”可知，该团队使用机器学习程序解决了蛋白质结构的问题。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Proteins are crucial for our bodies and are involved in almost every biological process. The shape of a protein determines its function. (蛋白质对我们的身体至关重要，几乎参与每一个生物过程。蛋白质的形状决定了它的功能。)”可知，蛋白质的形状影响其在生物过程中的作用。故选D。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段中“The tech company’s success with A-Fol (这家科技公司在A-Fol上的成功)”及“the growing impact of artificial intelligence in various scientific domains, showing that AI can tackle complex biological problems and contribute to critical advancements in health and medicine. (人工智能在各种科学领域日益增长的影响力，表明人工智能可以解决复杂的生物学问题，并为健康和医学领域的关键进步做出贡献。)”可知，A-Fold的成功凸显了人工智能在各个领域的影响力，因此“underscore”与选项B意思相近,意为“强调，突出”。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The Nobel Prize committee awarded this work to highlight the value of combining different areas in science, where technology and biology meet to create amazing results. This achievement not only shows what AI can do but also sets an example for future scientific projects that combine technology with traditional research to address global problems. (诺贝尔奖委员会颁发这项工作是为了突出结合不同科学领域的重要性，其中技术和生物学相遇并创造出惊人的成果。这一成就不仅展示了人工智能可以做什么，也为未来结合技术与传统研究的科学项目树立了榜样，以解决全球问题。)”可知，作者暗示了未来科学研究的一个可能性是不同领域之间的合作将增加，特别是在技术和生物学交汇的领域。故选C。 D Studies have shown the mere exposure effect, also referred to as the familiarity principle, inspires our decisions. It is a helpful psychological mechanism that helps us sustain our energy and focus our attention on other things. Getting used to new things takes effort and it can be tiring. So unless we have a terrible experience, we are likely to buy from companies we’ve got used to. That is why companies spend so much money on advertising and marketing and why insurance (保险) companies openly charge existing customers more than new ones. It’s not the case that we only desire things we already know. Some studies suggest when invited to share our preferences, we sometimes see less familiar options as more desirable. But when acting on that preference, we fall back to what we know. This might explain why sometimes the things we want and the things we do don’t quite match up. We might even return to companies that treated us poorly in the past or stay in bad relationships. It’s easy to paint the familiarity principle as an enemy or something to battle as if it is something that holds us back from living our dreams. But this attitude might be overwhelming because it tends to encourage us toward big-picture thinking. Where we imagine that change requires a quite dramatic swing that we don’t feel ready for. Some articles suggest the solution to familiarity frustration (沮丧) is complete exposure to novelty. While this can appear effective in the short term, we may only end up replacing one problem with another. It also risks overwhelm and burnout. So what if we can work with the familiarity principle instead? Familiarity is something we can learn to play with and enjoy. It is a setting for creativity and a pathway to expansion. We can broaden the zone of familiarity bit by bit. If we think of familiarity as something that can expand, we can consider changing the conditions in and around our lives to make more space for our preferences to take root and grow gently. From here, we will start to make decisions, drawing from an ever-deepening pool of valuable options. 12. What allows insurance companies to charge old customers more? A. The advertising cost. B. The improved service. C. The familiarity principle. D. The principle of the market. 13. We can learn from paragraph 2 that . A. Our preferences affect our decisions B. Familiarity tends to generate disrespect C. The familiarity principle is a double-edged sword D. There can be a mismatch between desires and actions 14. What is the author’s attitude towards the solution in some articles? A. Disapproving. B. Tolerant. C. Objective. D. Reserved. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Step Out of Your Familiarity Zone B. Spare a Thought for Your Preference C. Gently Expand Your Familiarity Zone D. Give Priority to the Mere Exposure Effect 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了熟悉性原则对我们决策的影响，并提出了一种平衡的观点来看待这个原则，而不是将其视为阻碍，作者建议我们可以通过逐步扩展熟悉区域来利用这一原则来促进创造性和成长。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Studies have shown the mere exposure effect, also referred to as the familiarity principle, inspires our decisions. It is a helpful psychological mechanism that helps us sustain our energy and focus our attention on other things. Getting used to new things takes effort and it can be tiring. So unless we have a terrible experience, we are likely to buy from companies we’ve got used to. That is why companies spend so much money on advertising and marketing and why insurance (保险)companies openly charge existing customers more than new ones.(研究表明，单纯的暴露效应，也被称为熟悉原则，会激发我们的决定。这是一种有益的心理机制，可以帮助我们保持精力充沛，并将注意力集中在其他事情上。习惯新事物需要努力，而且可能会让人筋疲力尽。因此，除非我们有糟糕的经历，否则我们很可能会从我们已经习惯的公司购买股票。这就是为什么公司在广告和营销上花那么多钱，为什么保险公司公开向现有客户收取比新客户更高的费用。)”可知，熟悉原则让保险公司向老客户收取更多费用。故选C。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“It’s not the case that we only desire things we already know. Some studies suggest when invited to share our preferences, we sometimes see less familiar options as more desirable. But when acting on that preference, we fall back to what we know. This might explain why sometimes the things we want and the things we do don’t quite match up. We might even return to companies that treated us poorly in the past or stay in bad relationships.(这并不是说我们只想要已知的东西。一些研究表明，当被邀请分享我们的偏好时，我们有时会认为不太熟悉的选择更可取。但当我们按照这种偏好行事时，我们又回到了我们所知道的。这也许可以解释为什么有时候我们想要的和我们做的并不完全匹配。我们甚至可能回到过去对我们不好的公司，或者保持糟糕的关系。)”可知，本段解释了为什么有时候我们想要的和我们做的并不完全匹配，也就是说有时候我们的欲望和行动可能不匹配。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“While this can appear effective in the short run, we may only end up replacing one problem with another. It also risks overwhelm and burnout.(虽然这在短期内看起来是有效的，但我们最终可能只是用一个问题代替另一个问题。它也有让人不堪重负和精疲力竭的风险。)”可知，这段话表明作者对文章中提出的解决方案持反对态度，认为这种解决方案可能只是暂时有效，而且可能带来新的问题和风险。因此，作者的态度是反对的。故选A。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Studies have shown the mere exposure effect, also referred to as the familiarity principle, inspires our decisions. It is a helpful psychological mechanism that helps us sustain our energy and focus our attention on other things. Getting used to new things takes effort and it can be exhausting.(研究表明，单纯的暴露效应，也被称为熟悉原则，会激发我们的决定。这是一种有益的心理机制，可以帮助我们保持精力充沛，并将注意力集中在其他事情上。习惯新事物需要努力，而且可能会让人筋疲力尽。)”以及最后一段“We can broaden the zone of familiarity bit by bit. If we think of familiarity as something that can expand, we can consider changing the conditions in and around our lives to make more space for our preferences to take root and grow gently. From here, we will start to make decisions, drawing from an ever-deepening pool of valuable options.(我们可以一点一点地扩大熟悉的范围。如果我们认为熟悉是一种可以扩展的东西，我们可以考虑改变我们生活中的环境，为我们的喜好提供更多的空间，让它生根发芽。从这里开始，我们将从越来越多的有价值的选择中做出决定。)”可知，文章主要讨论了熟悉性原则对我们决策的影响，以及如何利用这一原则进行创新和拓展。文章强调了我们可以逐步扩大熟悉的范围，通过改变生活中的条件，为我们的偏好提供更多的空间，使其能够生根并温和地成长。因此，选项C“Gently Expand Your Familiarity Zone(慢慢扩大你的熟悉范围)”最能概括文章的主题。故选C。 E Disasters such as hurricanes, earthquakes or wildfires are typically unexpected, sudden and overwhelming.

His mother had just sent him there and told him to reflect on his recent behaviour. What exactly did he do wrong? As he was still thinking, he heard a knock and then the door was opened. His mother came in and sat down next to him. “Alright Mike, tell me, do you know what you did wrong?” Mike became more puzzled as he said, “That’s exactly what I have been trying to do. But no matter how hard I try, I can’t seem to think of anything that I may have done wrong.” His mother sighed (叹息).” “Now, now, Mike. Don’t you remember how you shouted at your best friend, and even your head teacher?” “No, that’s not what happened. You must have seen it wrong...” Mike answered quietly, trying to defend himself. “Oh, really? Because it looked like you were angry at something and were taking it out on someone else.” Mike looked awkward at what his mother told him. Truth be told, when the school announced that there would be a school trip to the zoo on Friday, Mike could hardly sit still all week. He had never been to the zoo before, and the thought of seeing lions, giraffes, and elephants up close made him excited. He even packed his backpack a day earlier, stuffing it with snacks and a notebook to sketch animals. But on Friday morning, it was raining heavily. “It’ll clear up,” he murmured. When Mike arrived at school, he heard that the trip to the zoo had been cancelled. Mike froze in disbelief. In class, Mrs. Green, the headteacher, tried to cheer everyone up with a group activity, but Mike couldn’t focus. When she asked him to join, he yelled, “What’s the point? This day’s already ruined!” His best friend, Tom, whispered, “It’s not her fault,” but Mike glared at him. “You think this is fine? I bet you don’t even care about the zoo!” he said sharply. 注意： 1. 续写词数为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 He told everything to his mother. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next morning, Mike hurried to school, anxious but determined. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version He told everything to his mother.

She explained that it was natural for humans to get angry sometimes, but taking it out on others was really harmful to our personal relationships. Mike felt regretful and guilty, realizing that his behaviour had hurt the people he cared about. But he was at a loss what to do. “Apology is the first step. They care for you and they will forgive you,” His mother suggested. Nodding his head, Mike made up his mind to make things right. The next morning, Mike hurried to school, anxious but determined. He began by going over to Tom. “I’ m terribly sorry for the way I behaved that day,” he said quietly but sincerely, looking his best friend in the eye. Tom was deeply touched by his frankness and honesty, so he forgave Mike without hesitation. The relaxation the first apology gave Mike filled him with confidence to find Mrs Green, who didn’t say much but smiled with relief and patted Mike on the shoulder. Mike felt he did the right thing, and for the first time in days, he felt a sense of peace. 【解析】 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述了主人公Mike因学校动物园旅行取消而情绪失控，对好友和班主任发脾气，后在母亲的引导下认识到错误并主动道歉的故事。文章通过Mike的经历，强调了情绪管理的重要性，以及面对挫折和失望时应如何正确调整心态，理解他人，并通过道歉来修复受损的人际关系。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“他把一切都告诉了母亲。”可知，第一段可描写母亲建议Mike道歉的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天早上，Mike匆忙赶往学校，既焦虑又坚定。”可知，第二段可描写Mike道歉并获得原谅以及Mike的感悟。 2.续写线索：建议道歉——决定道歉——道歉并获得原谅——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 解释：explain/account for 意识到：realize/be aware of 关心：care for/be concerned about 情绪类 后悔的：regretful/penitent 感动的：touched/moved 【点睛】[高分句型1]She explained that it was natural for humans to get angry sometimes, but taking it out on others was really harmful to our personal relationships.

B While enjoying the holiday with her family during the summer of 1955, Chava Willig Levy, who was only three and a half years old, suddenly developed a high fever. After rushing her to the hospital, her family received the tragic news that all families of that generation feared— their precious Chava had polio (小儿麻痹症) . Chava spent the next few months in hospital. Although she could breathe on her own after treatment, she was left paralyzed from the neck down. When she was nine, she was thrilled that she got the chance to go to school. However, it turned out that she was in a single room with a group of kids who all had mobility impairment. Some of those kids were also intellectually disabled. They weren’t even allowed to eat lunch in the cafeteria. Chava now has a communication consulting firm. She even wrote a memoir about her life, titled A Life Not with Standing. Chava became an advocate for disability rights and has dedicated her life to speaking out against discrimination of disabilities in the world. During the pandemic in 2020, Chava spent most offer time inside, starting a YouTube podcast (播客) focusing on one of her passions, music. There has been positive feedback from listeners who have been touched and inspired by the songs discussed on the podcast. “Chava played a fabulous song called Mother by Tom Paxton. I was listening to it while driving,” said Barbara Schumer, a follower of Chava’s podcast. “The lyrics were about adoption and I started sobbing in the car, since I have two children I adopted at birth. I wrote to her after that, and I think she’s a remarkable person.” Despite her disability, Chava said, “Having a disability is an important piece of who you are, and I’m not at all in favor of living my life as if the disability is not important. But it shouldn’t be the thing that holds me back from becoming stronger.” 4. What can we learn about Chava from the first two paragraphs? A. She showed signs of polio at birth. B.

Misfortune doesn’t define who you are. D. Actions speak louder than words. C A major scientific achievement has been recognized with the 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. This award was given to a team using machine learning to solve a big problem in biology: predicting and designing the 3D shapes of proteins. Most of this work was done at a tech company, marking a notable shift that high-level scientific research can also originate outside traditional academic settings. Proteins are crucial for our bodies and are involved in almost every biological process. The shape of a protein determines its function. If a protein is shaped incorrectly, it can cause serious diseases like Alzheimer’s and diabetes. Historically, predicting a protein’s shape from its amino acid sequence (序列) was very difficult and puzzled scientists for decades. The breakthrough happened with A-Fold, a machine learning program that can accurately predict protein structures from their amino acid sequences. This tool has changed the field, providing insights into the structure of over 200 million proteins so far. This data is expected to speed up progress in medicine and drug development, opening new ways to treat diseases. The tech company’s success with A-Fold also underscores the growing impact of artificial intelligence in various scientific domains, showing that Al can tackle complex biological problems and contribute to critical advancements in health and medicine. The Nobel Prize committee awarded this work to highlight the value of combining different areas in science, where technology and biology meet to create amazing results. This achievement not only shows what AI can do but also sets an example for future scientific projects that combine technology with traditional research to address global problems. 8. Why was the team awarded the 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry? A. They discovered a cure for Alzheimer’s and diabetes. B. They analyzed the functions of essential body elements. C. They worked out protein structures with a machine learning program. D. They created a new way to treat diseases through traditional research. 9. Why is the shape of a protein critical to its function? A. It leads to the development of the diseases. B. It offers insights into the structure of protein. C. It speeds up the progress of medicine and drug. D. It affects the protein’s role in biological processes. 10. What does the underlined word “underscore” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Minimize. B. Highlight. C. Question. D. Overlook. 11. What possibility does the author imply about the future of scientific research? A. A new focus on solving biological problems. B. An amazing change in academic research settings. C. An increase in joint efforts between different fields. D. A lessened dependence on machine learning techniques. D Studies have shown the mere exposure effect, also referred to as the familiarity principle, inspires our decisions. It is a helpful psychological mechanism that helps us sustain our energy and focus our attention on other things. Getting used to new things takes effort and it can be tiring. So unless we have a terrible experience, we are likely to buy from companies we’ve got used to. That is why companies spend so much money on advertising and marketing and why insurance (保险) companies openly charge existing customers more than new ones. It’s not the case that we only desire things we already know. Some studies suggest when invited to share our preferences, we sometimes see less familiar options as more desirable. But when acting on that preference, we fall back to what we know. This might explain why sometimes the things we want and the things we do don’t quite match up. We might even return to companies that treated us poorly in the past or stay in bad relationships. It’s easy to paint the familiarity principle as an enemy or something to battle as if it is something that holds us back from living our dreams. But this attitude might be overwhelming because it tends to encourage us toward big-picture thinking. Where we imagine that change requires a quite dramatic swing that we don’t feel ready for. Some articles suggest the solution to familiarity frustration (沮丧) is complete exposure to novelty. While this can appear effective in the short term, we may only end up replacing one problem with another. It also risks overwhelm and burnout. So what if we can work with the familiarity principle instead? Familiarity is something we can learn to play with and enjoy. It is a setting for creativity and a pathway to expansion. We can broaden the zone of familiarity bit by bit. If we think of familiarity as something that can expand, we can consider changing the conditions in and around our lives to make more space for our preferences to take root and grow gently. From here, we will start to make decisions, drawing from an ever-deepening pool of valuable options. 12. What allows insurance companies to charge old customers more? A The advertising cost. B. The improved service. C. The familiarity principle. D. The principle of the market. 13. We can learn from paragraph 2 that . A. Our preferences affect our decisions B. Familiarity tends to generate disrespect C. The familiarity principle is a double-edged sword D. There can be a mismatch between desires and actions 14. What is the author’s attitude towards the solution in some articles? A. Disapproving. B. Tolerant. C. Objective. D. Reserved. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A.

His mother had just sent him there and told him to reflect on his recent behaviour. What exactly did he do wrong? As he was still thinking, he heard a knock and then the door was opened. His mother came in and sat down next to him. “Alright Mike, tell me, do you know what you did wrong?” Mike became more puzzled as he said, “That’s exactly what I have been trying to do. But no matter how hard I try, I can’t seem to think of anything that I may have done wrong.” His mother sighed (叹息).” “Now, now, Mike. Don’t you remember how you shouted at your best friend, and even your head teacher?” “No, that’s not what happened. You must have seen it wrong...” Mike answered quietly, trying to defend himself. “Oh, really? Because it looked like you were angry at something and were taking it out on someone else.” Mike looked awkward at what his mother told him. Truth be told, when the school announced that there would be a school trip to the zoo on Friday, Mike could hardly sit still all week. He had never been to the zoo before, and the thought of seeing lions, giraffes, and elephants up close made him excited. He even packed his backpack a day earlier, stuffing it with snacks and a notebook to sketch animals. But on Friday morning, it was raining heavily. “It’ll clear up,” he murmured. When Mike arrived at school, he heard that the trip to the zoo had been cancelled. Mike froze in disbelief. In class, Mrs. Green, the headteacher, tried to cheer everyone up with a group activity, but Mike couldn’t focus. When she asked him to join, he yelled, “What’s the point? This day’s already ruined!” His best friend, Tom, whispered, “It’s not her fault,” but Mike glared at him. “You think this is fine? I bet you don’t even care about the zoo!” he said sharply. 注意： 1. 续写词数为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 He told everything to his mother. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next morning, Mike hurried to school, anxious but determined. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
