Helicopter (直升机) Transport Helicopter transport is the most swift and convenient means for transportation between Hong Kong and Macau. The length of time for a journey is only 15 minutes. Service time: The helicopter departs every 30 minutes from 9:00 to 23:00. Passengers should arrive at the waiting room at least 15 minutes before the departure time. Tel: 2872 7288 (Macau) and 2108 9898 (Hong Kong). Passengers can book a ticket via these telephone numbers. Approximate ticket fares: The price of a helicopter transport is about 2,700–2,900 yuan per person. Ship Transport The length of time for a journey by ship between Hong Kong and Macau is about 50 minutes, which is much longer than that taking a helicopter. However, the ticket fare is much cheaper than taking a helicopter. Service time and departure interval: The ship departs every 15 minutes from 7:00 to 24:00, and then departs at 0:30, 1:00, 1:30, 2:30, 4:00, 4:45 and 6:00. Approximate ticket fares: There are different kinds of ticket fares, for day sailing and night sailing and for common seats and luxury seats. The price is from 133 to 268 yuan per seat. Jetfoil (水翼喷射船) Transport Passengers also can take a jetfoil: a five-star Premier Jetfoil with luxurious services of high quality coming and going among Macau, Hong Kong and Hong Kong International Airport, and the length of time for each route is about 55 minutes. Service time and departure interval: The jetfoil departs every 1 hour from 8:00–22:00. Approximate ticket fares: The common seat for day sailing is 250–320 yuan per person. The luxury seat for day sailing is 450–560 yuan per person. 1. What are the helicopter passengers required to do? A. Arrive at least a quarter earlier. B. Check the departure time online. C. Choose the kind of seat on the spot. D. Pay for an extra insurance fee. 2. What is the advantage of jetfoil transport over the other two? A. Its comfort level. B. The price of tickets. C. The length of time. D. The frequency of transportation. 3. Where is the text probably taken from? A. A textbook. B. A travel diary. C. A travel website. D. A science report. 【答案】1. A 2. A 3. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了香港到澳门的三种交通方式及其时长和票价等相关信息。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Helicopter (直升机) Transport部分Service time的第二句“Passengers should arrive at the waiting room at least 15 minutes before the departure time.(乘客应在飞机起飞前至少15分钟到达候机室)”可知，乘坐直升机的乘客需要至少提前15分钟到达候机室。故选A。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Jetfoil (水翼喷射船) Transport部分中“Passengers also can take a jetfoil: a five-star Premier Jetfoil with luxurious services of high quality coming and going among Macau, Hong Kong and Hong Kong International Airport, and the length of time for each route is about 55 minutes.(旅客亦可乘坐jetfoil：五星级Premier jetfoil，优质豪华服务，往返于澳门、香港及香港国际机场，每条航线时间约55分钟)”可知，水翼喷射船在舒适度上比其他两种交通方式更有优势。故选A。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“It is really convenient and swift for travelers to travel between Hong Kong and Macau, with a straight-line distance of about 60 kilometers.(香港和澳门之间的直线距离约为60公里，非常方便快捷)”结合本文主要介绍了香港到澳门的三种交通方式及其时长和票价等相关信息。由此可推知，本文可能选自一个旅游网站。故选C。 B When Thomas Panek lost his eyesight more than 25 years ago, he doubted whether he would ever follow his lifelong dream again. “I was too scared to run,” he told CBS this morning. Indeed, although Panek had been running since high school, the idea of running blind seemed too scared. But he did manage to keep his dream alive—with help from human guides who assisted him on each run. Even so, the real joy of the run—the excitement of independence that comes from passing a course on your own terms—doesn’t exist. “When you’re tied to another person, it’s no longer your own race,” the 48­year­old told CBS. “The independence isn’t quite there.” But Panek found a friend—indeed, man’s best friend—who would help him regain that sense of purpose. He started running with a guide dog named Gus. Not only did Panek rediscover his love for running, but also found his best dog friend. Gus remained a great helper at Panek’s side for many races. And, last Sunday, the old dog ran across the finish line with Panek at the New York City Half Marathon. At that moment, they were both recorded in the history books. Panek, who finished the course in a little more than 2 hours and 20 minutes, became the first blind runner to complete the race led by dogs. Waving their medals, Panek and Gus—who retired (退休) after the race—shared a breathless embrace (拥抱). “It’s a little emotional for me because he’s been there with me the whole time,” Panek told CNN. With retirement coming, it would be the faithful (忠诚的) yellow dog’s last race. But for Panek, the road ahead remains long and bright—not only for him, but for anyone with a disability who still hopes to run down a dream. 4. Why did Panek choose a dog instead of a human as his running guide? A. Humans always make orders. B. Dogs run faster than humans. C. Dogs are the best friends of humans. D. He wanted to be an independent runner. 5. Why was Panek emotional after winning the race? A. Gus was about to retire. B. He broke the record. C. Gus ran with him all the way. D. He stuck to his dream. 6. Which of the following can best describe Gus? A. Trustworthy and helpful. B. Independent and brave. C. Determined and caring. D. Polite and kind. 7. What is the best title of the text? A. Animals Are Great Helpers of Humans B. A Blind Runner Realize Dreams with a Dog’s Help C. A Guide Dog Becomes the Best Friend of the Blind D. A Blind Runner Overcame Difficulties to Realize Dreams 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了导盲犬为盲人运动员领跑，帮助盲人运动员参加并赢得比赛、实现跑步梦想的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段最后两句话““When you’re tied to another person, it’s no longer your own race,” the 48­year­old told CBS. “The independence isn’t quite there.”(这位48岁的男子告诉哥伦比亚广播公司：“当让另外一个人领跑的时候，就已经不再是自己在比赛了。”“这样就失去了独立性。”)”可知，Panek为了成为一个独立的赛跑运动员，他选择了导盲犬而不是人为他领跑。故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句话““It’s a little emotional for me because he’s been there with me the whole time,” Panek told CNN.(帕内克告诉美国有线电视新闻网：“这对我来说有点激动，因为他一直都在我身边。”)”可知，在比赛中 Panek的导盲犬全程陪着他，这让他感到非常的激动。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段第四句话“Gus remained a great helper at Panek’s side for many races.(在许多比赛中，格斯都是帕内克的得力助手)”和最后一段第一句话“With retirement coming, it would be the faithful(忠诚的) yellow dog’s last race.(随着退役的到来，这将是这只忠实的黄狗的最后一场比赛)”可推知，Gus是一个忠诚且乐于助人的导盲犬。故选A。 【7题详解】 标题判断题。文章讲述了导盲犬为盲人运动员领跑，帮助盲人运动员参加并赢得比赛、实现跑步梦想的故事，B项“一个盲人跑步者在狗的帮助下实现了梦想”最适合做文章标题。故选B。 C People who visit Huangsiyang village in Huizhou, Guangdong province, are shocked by the grand scale of its ancient residential buildings. Covering an area of 220,000 square meters, the village was named “Huangsiyang” to express gratitude for the emperor’s kindness. With a history of over 500 years, the village’s architecture dates back to the late Ming Dynasty. As part of a Guangdong provincial project that targets the high-quality rural (乡村的) development, Huangsiyang has made great efforts to promote its heritage protection and cultural tourism, which have breathed new life into the village. Yang Shouqiang, a village official, explained that the ancient village has more than 20 historical sites, making it the most well-preserved and largest ancient residential group in Huidong county. Yang said the village has attached great importance to education and culture, having produced over 20 examinees who passed the provincial-level exams after being invited to sit for the imperial examinations — the ancient form of the gaokao, China’s college entrance exam. From 2022 to last year, a total of 65million yuan was invested in the protection and development of Huangsiyang ancient village. Recent surveys have shown significant improvements in the village’s surroundings and internal environment after it took measures to restore architecture and rivers, and improve lighting and other basic facilities. At the same time, the village introduced high-quality homestay (民宿) projects. These homestays preserve the original architectural style of the ancient buildings. The village has attracted many tourists from the Guangdong — Hong Kong — Macao Greater Bay Area, who take part in team building activities and enjoy unique experiences. The increasing number of visitors to the village is also increasing sales of local snacks and agricultural products. Online promotions of these products have also brought in more tourists to nearby villages. 8. What surprises visitors to Huangsiyang village? A. Tasty local snacks. B. A history of over 500 years. C. The rural landscape. D. A large number of ancient buildings. 9. What does the underlined phrase “sit for” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Prepare for. B. Go through. C. Participate in. D. Put off. 10.

B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍了广东惠州皇思扬古村历史悠久，努力促进其遗产保护和文化旅游，吸引了众多游客。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“People who visit Huangsiyang village in Huizhou, Guangdong province, are shocked by the grand scale of its ancient residential buildings.(参观过广东惠州皇思扬村的人们都被那里规模宏大的古民居建筑所震惊)”可知，去皇思扬村的游客会被大量的古建筑所震惊，故选D。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线短语前“who passed the provincial-level exams(通过省级考试)”以及“after(在……以后)”可知，此处指在被邀请参加科举考试后通过考试，sit for意为“参加”，故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“As part of a Guangdong provincial project that targets the high-quality rural (乡村的) development, Huangsiyang has made great efforts to promote its heritage protection and cultural tourism, which have breathed new life into the village.(作为广东省高质量乡村发展项目的一部分，皇思扬努力促进其遗产保护和文化旅游，为村庄注入了新的活力)”和最后一段中“The increasing number of visitors to the village is also increasing sales of local snacks and agricultural products.(越来越多的游客来到这个村庄，也促进了当地小吃和农产品的销售)”可知，皇思扬古村从旅游业中受益良多，故选A。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第一段中“People who visit Huangsiyang village in Huizhou, Guangdong province, are shocked by the grand scale of its ancient residential buildings.(参观过广东惠州皇思扬村的人们都被那里规模宏大的古民居所震惊)”和最后一段中“The increasing number of visitors to the village is also increasing sales of local snacks and agricultural products.

They hold our memories, represent belief, and witness countless moments of joy and sorrow. In our imagination, there is always a place for a tree. For the locals in Naunde, Mozambique, a mango tree provides more than just shade from the Saharan sun. It is also a traditional setting for storytelling, ceremonies, and regulating village life. “It is a place to meet and talk, to seek agreement and settle arguments, to bridge differences and develop unity,” wrote Kofi Annan, the former Secretary-General of the UN. “If you have a problem and can’t find a solution, you meet again tomorrow under the tree and you keep talking.” The mango tree always stands there, witnessing and remembering everything, and at the same time becomes an inseparable part of the collective memory of the locals. “Each growth layer that trees add every year contains a bit of the air from that year. The trees absorb carbon dioxide from the air through tiny pores (气孔) , which helps build their tissues, so they physically hold the record of the years of their surroundings,” said Benjamin Swett, author of New York City of Trees. In this way, trees also serve as nature’s memory stick, keeping a record of a history as long as themselves. The English language borrows a lot from trees: We turn over a new leaf and branch out, meaning we move on from the past and start something new. And there are times when we can’t see the wood for the trees. We tend to enjoy the flourishing leaves, branches, and roots of the trees. However, we pay little attention to the forests that embrace trees. The same things often happen to us in our own lives. We often dip ourselves into some bad experiences in life. As a result, we may give up at a terrible moment instead of imagining satisfying success after defeating the failure. Trees inspire mankind, not just through language, but through ideas. Perhaps the most famous is a tree in a garden in Lincolnshire, England, where an apple fell and inspired young Isaac Newton to wonder: Why would that apple always fall directly to the ground? According to an 18th-century account, Newton was home from Cambridge when he stepped into the garden and into a reverie (沉思) . There, the idea of gravitation came into his mind, inspired by an apple. 12. What is the role of a mango tree in Naunde? A. A spot to bind the locals together. B. A witness to the changing weather. C. A generous food supplier on Earth. D. A shelter to protect villagers in disasters. 13. How do trees keep a record of their surroundings? A. By changing the width of their growth layer. B. By sticking out branches in different directions. C. By absorbing carbon dioxide to build their tissues. D By reflecting changing climate conditions with their tiny pores. 14. What is the fourth paragraph mainly about? A. Suggestions on facing failure. B. Famous English stories about trees. C. The relationship between trees and forests. D. Lessons from English expressions related to trees. 15. Why does the author mention Newton in the last paragraph? A. To explain the necessity of observation. B. To show how gravitation was discovered. C. To stress the importance of trees in inspiring ideas. D. To introduce how trees serve as a mirror of history. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。树木在人类的思想、历史和生活中总是有一席之地，文章从各方面论述了树木对人类的重要性。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段第二句和第三句“It is also a traditional setting for storytelling, ceremonies, and regulating village life. “It is a place to meet and talk, to seek agreement and settle arguments, to bridge differences and develop unity,” wrote Kofi Annan, the former Secretary-General of the UN.(这里也是讲故事、举行仪式和规范乡村生活的传统场所。联合国前秘书长科菲·安南写道：“这是一个会面和交谈、寻求共识、解决争议、弥合分歧、发展团结的地方。”)”可知，芒果树在Naunde的角色是一个把当地人联系在一起的地方。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段第二句中的“The trees absorb carbon dioxide from the air through tiny pores (气孔) , which helps build their tissues, so they physically hold the record of the years of their surroundings(树木通过微小的孔吸收空气中的二氧化碳，这有助于它们的组织，所以它们物理上保存了周围环境的年份记录)”可知，树木通过吸收二氧化碳构建它们的组织来记录它们周围的环境。故选C。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段第一句中的“The English language borrows a lot from trees(英语从树上借用了很多东西)”可知，第四段主要是讲与树有关的英语表达。故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句“Trees inspire mankind, not just through language, but through ideas.(树木不仅通过语言，而且通过思想启发人类。)”可知，作者在最后一段中提到牛顿是为了强调树木在激发灵感方面的重要性。故选C。 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。 It’s common that everyone wants to get the most out of his teenage years.

It also teaches you about the value of money. When I was about sixteen years old, I wanted to buy albums of my favourite band, but I did not have any money. This was because the money my parents gave me was just enough to get by. I had to find a part-time job in order to purchase the music I wanted. Luckily, I found that there were many old people who needed help in my neighbourhood. And I chose the oldest person I knew, Mrs. Hudson, who was over eighty years old, and could not tend her garden anymore. She had flowers, a grass lawn, and some tomato plants. I knocked on her door, trying to build up enough courage to ask her for work. She answered that indeed she needed help in her garden. My first job was to pull out weeds. I got down on my knees and began to pull them out one by one in her front yard and backyard. Finishing this tiring and boring task, I mowed her lawn front and back. That was the first day of my job, and it took me about two hours. After that, I was paid ten dollars for my work. It was less than I thought, but at least I had earned my first money. After getting that ten dollars, I intended to go to the supermarket to buy my favourite album. I chose a nice morning to do it because I knew it would be a memorable moment when I was able to buy what I liked through my efforts. But on the way to supermarket, I happened to see my mom “working” on the opposite side of the road. Actually, I had never seen how she worked before, I just knew she was a saleswoman. 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。 Under the burning sun, my mom was distributing leaflets (分发传单) to passers-by, sweating all over. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Then I continued making my way to the supermarket, and suddenly a good idea occurred to me. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Under the burning sun, my mom was distributing leaflets (分发传单) to passers-by, sweating all over. Once a man or woman passed by, my mom would give a piece of paper to him or her. Someone refused by slightly waving his hand and someone just ignored her without looking at her. Of course, there was someone who accepted the paper from my mom but would then throw it into a garbage can not far away. Seeing the scene, I couldn’t help but feel guilty. Tears welling up in my eyes, I murmured, “It’s so hard for mom to earn money.” Then I continued making my way to the supermarket, and suddenly a good idea occurred to me. I bought a portable electric fan for mom instead of an album for myself. After that, I returned to the place where my mom worked. She mistook me for a passer-by and gave me a piece of paper. I took it and gave her the electric fan. Surprised to find out it was me, she mildly scolded me for my wasting money. I told her I bought it with the money I earned. She accepted it with a big smile on her face. It was then that I came to understand the value of money. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者自己打工存钱买专辑，体验到了赚钱的辛苦，打算去超市买最喜欢的专辑却看到妈妈在路边发传单。看到妈妈工作的艰辛后，作者选择给妈妈买了一个手提式电风扇。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“在烈日下，妈妈满头大汗地向路人散发传单”可知，第一段可描写作者看到妈妈辛苦工作的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“然后我继续向超市走去，突然我想到了一个好主意”可知，第二段可描写作者给妈妈买风扇，以及送风扇的经过。 2.续写线索：妈妈发传单——目睹艰辛——想到买风扇——送风扇——妈妈开心——作者感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 路过：pass by/drop by 忽视：ignore /overlook 拒绝：refuse/turn down/decline 情绪类 困难的：hard /tough 惊讶的：surprised /astonished 【点睛】[高分句型1] Of course, there was someone who accepted the paper from my mom but would then throw it into a garbage can not far away.

B When Thomas Panek lost his eyesight more than 25 years ago, he doubted whether he would ever follow his lifelong dream again. “I was too scared to run,” he told CBS this morning. Indeed, although Panek had been running since high school, the idea of running blind seemed too scared. But he did manage to keep his dream alive—with help from human guides who assisted him on each run. Even so, the real joy of the run—the excitement of independence that comes from passing a course on your own terms—doesn’t exist. “When you’re tied to another person, it’s no longer your own race,” the 48­year­old told CBS. “The independence isn’t quite there.” But Panek found a friend—indeed, man’s best friend—who would help him regain that sense of purpose. He started running with a guide dog named Gus. Not only did Panek rediscover his love for running, but also found his best dog friend. Gus remained a great helper at Panek’s side for many races. And, last Sunday, the old dog ran across the finish line with Panek at the New York City Half Marathon. At that moment, they were both recorded in the history books. Panek, who finished the course in a little more than 2 hours and 20 minutes, became the first blind runner to complete the race led by dogs. Waving their medals, Panek and Gus—who retired (退休) after the race—shared a breathless embrace (拥抱). “It’s a little emotional for me because he’s been there with me the whole time,” Panek told CNN. With retirement coming, it would be the faithful (忠诚) yellow dog’s last race. But for Panek, the road ahead remains long and bright—not only for him, but for anyone with a disability who still hopes to run down a dream. 4. Why did Panek choose a dog instead of a human as his running guide? A. Humans always make orders. B. Dogs run faster than humans. C. Dogs are the best friends of humans. D. He wanted to be an independent runner. 5. Why was Panek emotional after winning the race? A. Gus was about to retire. B. He broke the record. C. Gus ran with him all the way. D. He stuck to his dream. 6. Which of the following can best describe Gus? A. Trustworthy and helpful. B. Independent and brave. C. Determined and caring. D. Polite and kind. 7. What is the best title of the text? A. Animals Are Great Helpers of Humans B. A Blind Runner Realize Dreams with a Dog’s Help C. A Guide Dog Becomes the Best Friend of the Blind D. A Blind Runner Overcame Difficulties to Realize Dreams C People who visit Huangsiyang village in Huizhou, Guangdong province, are shocked by the grand scale of its ancient residential buildings. Covering an area of 220,000 square meters, the village was named “Huangsiyang” to express gratitude for the emperor’s kindness. With a history of over 500 years, the village’s architecture dates back to the late Ming Dynasty. As part of a Guangdong provincial project that targets the high-quality rural (乡村的) development, Huangsiyang has made great efforts to promote its heritage protection and cultural tourism, which have breathed new life into the village. Yang Shouqiang, a village official, explained that the ancient village has more than 20 historical sites, making it the most well-preserved and largest ancient residential group in Huidong county. Yang said the village has attached great importance to education and culture, having produced over 20 examinees who passed the provincial-level exams after being invited to sit for the imperial examinations — the ancient form of the gaokao, China’s college entrance exam. From 2022 to last year, a total of 65million yuan was invested in the protection and development of Huangsiyang ancient village. Recent surveys have shown significant improvements in the village’s surroundings and internal environment after it took measures to restore architecture and rivers, and improve lighting and other basic facilities. At the same time, the village introduced high-quality homestay (民宿) projects. These homestays preserve the original architectural style of the ancient buildings. The village has attracted many tourists from the Guangdong — Hong Kong — Macao Greater Bay Area, who take part in team building activities and enjoy unique experiences. The increasing number of visitors to the village is also increasing sales of local snacks and agricultural products. Online promotions of these products have also brought in more tourists to nearby villages. 8. What surprises visitors to Huangsiyang village? A. Tasty local snacks. B. A history of over 500 years. C. The rural landscape. D. A large number of ancient buildings. 9. What does the underlined phrase “sit for” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Prepare for. B. Go through. C. Participate in. D. Put off. 10. What can we infer about Huangsiyang village? A. It benefits a lot from tourism. B. Its education system develops fast. C. It is famous for agricultural products. D. Its environment is damaged due to tourists. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Old village comes to life B. Old village draws visitors C. Old village values education D. Old village shows traditional culture D Every tree tells a story. They hold our memories, represent belief, and witness countless moments of joy and sorrow. In our imagination, there is always a place for a tree. For the locals in Naunde, Mozambique, a mango tree provides more than just shade from the Saharan sun. It is also a traditional setting for storytelling, ceremonies, and regulating village life. “It is a place to meet and talk, to seek agreement and settle arguments, to bridge differences and develop unity,” wrote Kofi Annan, the former Secretary-General of the UN. “If you have a problem and can’t find a solution, you meet again tomorrow under the tree and you keep talking.” The mango tree always stands there, witnessing and remembering everything, and at the same time becomes an inseparable part of the collective memory of the locals. “Each growth layer that trees add every year contains a bit of the air from that year. The trees absorb carbon dioxide from the air through tiny pores (气孔) , which helps build their tissues, so they physically hold the record of the years of their surroundings,” said Benjamin Swett, author of New York City of Trees. In this way, trees also serve as nature’s memory stick, keeping a record of a history as long as themselves. The English language borrows a lot from trees: We turn over a new leaf and branch out, meaning we move on from the past and start something new. And there are times when we can’t see the wood for the trees. We tend to enjoy the flourishing leaves, branches, and roots of the trees. However, we pay little attention to the forests that embrace trees. The same things often happen to us in our own lives. We often dip ourselves into some bad experiences in life. As a result, we may give up at a terrible moment instead of imagining satisfying success after defeating the failure. Trees inspire mankind, not just through language, but through ideas. Perhaps the most famous is a tree in a garden in Lincolnshire, England, where an apple fell and inspired young Isaac Newton to wonder: Why would that apple always fall directly to the ground? According to an 18th-century account, Newton was home from Cambridge when he stepped into the garden and into a reverie (沉思) . There, the idea of gravitation came into his mind, inspired by an apple. 12. What is the role of a mango tree in Naunde? A. A spot to bind the locals together. B. A witness to the changing weather. C. A generous food supplier on Earth. D. A shelter to protect villagers in disasters. 13. How do trees keep a record of their surroundings? A. By changing the width of their growth layer. B. By sticking out branches in different directions. C. By absorbing carbon dioxide to build their tissues. D By reflecting changing climate conditions with their tiny pores. 14. What is the fourth paragraph mainly about? A. Suggestions on facing failure. B. Famous English stories about trees. C. The relationship between trees and forests. D.

It also teaches you about the value of money. When I was about sixteen years old, I wanted to buy albums of my favourite band, but I did not have any money. This was because the money my parents gave me was just enough to get by. I had to find a part-time job in order to purchase the music I wanted. Luckily, I found that there were many old people who needed help in my neighbourhood. And I chose the oldest person I knew, Mrs. Hudson, who was over eighty years old, and could not tend her garden anymore. She had flowers, a grass lawn, and some tomato plants. I knocked on her door, trying to build up enough courage to ask her for work. She answered that indeed she needed help in her garden. My first job was to pull out weeds. I got down on my knees and began to pull them out one by one in her front yard and backyard. Finishing this tiring and boring task, I mowed her lawn front and back. That was the first day of my job, and it took me about two hours. After that, I was paid ten dollars for my work. It was less than I thought, but at least I had earned my first money. After getting that ten dollars, I intended to go to the supermarket to buy my favourite album. I chose a nice morning to do it because I knew it would be a memorable moment when I was able to buy what I liked through my efforts. But on the way to supermarket, I happened to see my mom “working” on the opposite side of the road. Actually, I had never seen how she worked before, I just knew she was a saleswoman. 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。 Under the burning sun, my mom was distributing leaflets (分发传单) to passers-by, sweating all over. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Then I continued making my way to the supermarket, and suddenly a good idea occurred to me. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
