A window-mounted bird feeder One way to guarantee a close-up look at the birds in your garden is to bring them all the way to the house. This bird feeder is solidly built with strong suction (吸) cups that you can tie to your windows, giving you a good view of your winged visitors. A pair of binoculars Binoculars are a birdwatcher’s best friend! They work like two small telescopes joined together, allowing you to use both eyes to see distant birds as if they were right in front of you. They’re perfect for spotting feathered friends in the wild, whether the birds are high up in the trees or soaring across the sky. When you peer through them, you get a view that makes every little detail of the birds—their colors, beaks, and even the texture of their feathers. The Robin: A Biography by Stephen Moss This beautifully illustrated book draws readers into the mysterious world of Britain’s favourite bird, the red robin—a familiar sight in all winter gardens, but as naturalist Stephen Moss demonstrates, one we hardly know. Combining convincing storytelling with biological fact, Moss guides us through a year in the life of the robin, from the moment it hatches from its egg to its all too timely mortality (死亡) — the robin tends to live a mere 13 months, adding to its precious quality. A reusable thermal bottle Every good birding expedition needs a bottle of steaming hot tea. A reusable bottle decorated with lifelike drawings of classic British birds combines a natural aesthetic (美感) with practicality. It can keep not only hot drinks but also cold drinks. 1. Which gift may attract birds to one’s house? A. A window-mounted bird feeder. B. A pair of binoculars. C. The Robin: A Biography. D. A reusable thermal bottle 2. What do we know about binoculars? A. They can attract birds to your house. B. They show images in black and white. C. They’re too heavy to carry for birdwatchers. D. They can provide detailed views of birdwatching. 3. What does The Robin: A Biography tell us about? A. The birth of a bird B. The death of a bird. C. The lifetime of a bird. D. The quantity of a bird. Situated in the east of Shaanxi Province, 120 kilometers away from Xi’an, Mount Hua is the highest of China’s five great mountains. And it’s well-known as the most dangerous mountain in China. Having made reservations at a simple hotel on the West Peak ahead of time, my brother and I determined to spend a night in the mountain last week. We went through the east entrance. Our plan was to climb, on foot and with hands, up to the West Peak, then take the cable car (缆车) down the next day. We started the climb in the early afternoon. The path consists of many stone steps with rough chain link handrails (扶手) in the narrowest and steepest areas. Physically, it is more like climbing the narrow steps of a skyscraper than trails. The most dangerous 100-metre-long path is called “Plank Road in the Sky”. We had never seen that steep cliff. Most climbers were frightened to tremble. Holding the chains tightly, we didn’t dare to look downward, and had a very difficult time in inching that distance carefully. Tired but excited, we reached the West Peak before 6 p.m. and rested at the hotel. After dinner, we spent some time talking with our guides, and picked up some interesting local stories. That night we watched the sky become spectacular with thousands of stars. This was the clearest sky that we had seen in our lives. The fresh air at Mount Hua was a treat! Next my brother and I made sleep a priority. We did happen to wake up a bit before sunrise. At about 5, an incredibly splendid rising sun unfolded before our eyes. That scene, as well as the terrifying climbing, did leave an everlasting impression on us. 4. Where did the writer sleep that night? A. At a luxury hotel in Xi’an. B. In a small tent under the stars. C. At a hotel on the West Peak. D. On the mountainside Mount Hua. 5. What does the underlined word “inching” in paragraph three probably mean? A. Moving slowly. B. Lying quietly. C. Shaking violently. D. Walking swiftly. 6. What’s the main idea of paragraph 4? A. They watched the sky and observed stars. B. They made friends with some local tourists. C. They had a hard time climbing Mount Hua. D. They enjoyed themselves having a good rest. 7. How did the author feel about their trip to Mount Hua? A. Different but relaxing. B. Depressing and tiring. C. Difficult but impressive. D. Familiar and comfortable. You may not realize it, but you are doing much more than just studying when you are at school. School is also the place where you learn to get on well with people. But this is not always easy. What can you do if you just don't like one of your classmates? If you discover that you have problems getting on with your classmates or friends, the most important thing to learn is tolerance. Tolerance is the ability to realize and respect the differences in others. We cannot change the way that other people do, so it is important to learn to live happily with them. Tolerance will make everyone get on better with each other. Getting to know someone may help you understand why he does things differently. Something different does not exactly mean that it is bad. Tolerance teaches us to keep a temperate and open mind. You need to remember an old saying, “Treat others how you want to be treated.” If you tolerate something, it does not mean that you have to like it. No one is asking you to change who you are or what you believe in. Tolerance just means that you should respect the differences in others and not try to make them change. It is important to practice tolerance, because it will make everyone's life easier. Learn to accept people for their different abilities and interests. The world is very different, and practicing tolerance in your own school and city can help make a difference. 8. This passage is trying to tell us ________. A. what's important for a student B. what students should do at school C. how to treat people different from us D how to get others to do things in the right way 9. From the first paragraph we know that at school ________. A. it's easier for someone to hate others B. getting along with others is not difficult C. most students are getting on well with each other D. students are learning other things besides studying 10. What is tolerance according to the passage? A. Accept people as they are. B. Believe you are always right. C. Expect everybody to be the same. D. Change yourself to please other people. 11. The last paragraph suggests that ________. A. tolerance can only be learnt at school B. living with people of the same interests is easier C. practicing tolerance at school can help make a better world D. people in different countries have different interests and abilities Of all the creatures on the planet the narwhal is one of the strangest looking. It’s a whale which has a large protruding tusk coming out of its head; that’s how it got, its nickname, the unicorn of the sea. They live in the Arctic Ocean off the coast of Canada, Russia and East Greenland. However, experts say some populations of narwhal could be extinct by 2025, and it’s all because of noise pollution. Narwhals rely on echolocation, which they use to find food and navigate their surroundings. The animal produces a sound wave which bounces off an object. They pick this reflected sound up through their lower jaw, and information on features like size and speed passes to their ears. However, increase in human marine activity, as well as climate change, has resulted in the Arctic Ocean becoming noisier, which means it’s more difficult for narwhals to rely on sound. Susanna Blackwell, who studies the effects of underwater noise on marine animals, told the BBC that there is noisier activity in the Arctic Ocean than ever because, as sea ice melts, new navigation routes are opening. And while icebergs breaking and creaking have been part of the ocean soundscape for hundreds of years, man-made noise is much harder for animals to adapt to, particularly as these changes are so sudden. Research published in Science Advances in 2023 recorded the reactions of narwhals to the simulated (模拟的) noises of oil expeditions made by a patrol vessel (巡逻船). The scientists tagged and tracked the creatures and found that, on hearing these sounds, they ended deep dives and stopped clicking, the echolocation signal they use for finding food underwater. This is the same reaction narwhals have to orcas, who hunt them, meaning human-made noise could trigger the creature’s “threat button”. So, what can we do? Charlotte Findlay, a postdoctoral fellow at Aarhus University, says “noise is actually quite easy to solve. We need to either turn it off or turn it down.” 12. What can we learn about the narwhal from the first paragraph? A. It has a large tusk from its jaw. B. It currently faces the risk of dying out. C. It lives in the southern hemisphere. D. It sounds different from other whales. 13. What does Susanna Blackwell’s study show? A. Narwhals navigate their surroundings by echolocation. B. Sea ice melting makes the ocean noisier than ever. C. Man-made noise has a greater impact on marine animals. D. Narwhals are not used to icebergs breaking and creaking. 14. What does the research mentioned in paragraph 3 imply? A. A patrol vessel was applied in the research. B. Orcas are the natural enemy to narwhals. C. Noises would change the echolocation signal. D. Scientists tagged narwhals under the water. 15. What’s the best title for the passage? A. Survival of Narwhal threatened by man-made noise. B. Experts predicting the extinction of the narwhal. C. New research set to solve underwater noise pollution. D. Narwhal population affected by underwater noise pollution.

Bibi loved being with her grandma, but she wanted to do more than just draw and read. “How about I give you a hand with the chores?” Bibi offered. “But you are too small. Why don’t you draw for a little while?” Grandma suggested “You’re such a good artist.” “But I want to help you” Bibi sighed. Bibi was too short to reach the tall rod that held the fresh clothes in neat alphabetical order. Grandma didn’t want her handling the hot presser or the iron. She could slide the stiff cardboard into the starched (浆洗过的) shirts, but that was about it. “Why don’t you draw a picture of more customers coming in?” Grandma joked. “Maybe that would help!” Bibi went outside. It was a crisp fall day. The last leaves were starting their lazy drift to the ground. She spotted her neighbour, Stephanie, across the street. Stephanie was painting big letters on the window of the hardware store. “Stephanie! You are going to get in trouble.” Stephanie laughed. “The high-school cheer-leading team is painting windows for our homecoming football game next weekend. Some of the shop owners said we could.” “Does that paint wash off?” Bibi asked. “Yep. It’s just cornflour, soap, and food coloring,” said Stephanie. Bibi saw other kids from the high school painting designs on window up and down the street. GO, TIGERS said the window of the nail salon in huge letter. HEAR US ROAR! said the window of the coffee shop. “I can help you!” Bibi called to Stephanie, her heart pounding. “I can draw!” “Sorry, Bibs,” Stephanie said. “I’m out of paint, and I have to get home. Thank you, though!” Bibi was so disappointed. She stared at Grandma’s windows.

They’re perfect for spotting feathered friends in the wild, whether the birds are high up in the trees or soaring across the sky. When you peer through them, you get a view that makes every little detail of the birds—their colors, beaks, and even the texture of their feathers.(它们的工作原理就像两个小望远镜连在一起，让你用两只眼睛看到远处的鸟类，就好像它们就在你面前一样。它们非常适合在野外发现有羽毛的朋友，无论这些鸟是在高高的树上还是在天空中翱翔。透过它们，你可以看到这些鸟的每一个细节——它们的颜色、喙，甚至羽毛的质地)”可知，双筒望远镜可以提供观鸟的详细视野。故选D。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Combining convincing storytelling with biological fact, Moss guides us through a year in the life of the robin, from the moment it hatches from its egg to its all too timely mortality (死亡) — the robin tends to live a mere 13 months, adding to its precious quality.(结合令人信服的故事和生物学事实，莫斯带领我们经历了知更鸟一年的生活，从它从蛋里孵出来的那一刻到它及时的死亡——知更鸟往往只活13个月，这增加了它宝贵的品质)”可知，《知更鸟传》讲述了鸟的一生。故选C。 Situated in the east of Shaanxi Province, 120 kilometers away from Xi’an, Mount Hua is the highest of China’s five great mountains. And it’s well-known as the most dangerous mountain in China. Having made reservations at a simple hotel on the West Peak ahead of time, my brother and I determined to spend a night in the mountain last week. We went through the east entrance. Our plan was to climb, on foot and with hands, up to the West Peak, then take the cable car (缆车) down the next day. We started the climb in the early afternoon. The path consists of many stone steps with rough chain link handrails (扶手) in the narrowest and steepest areas. Physically, it is more like climbing the narrow steps of a skyscraper than trails. The most dangerous 100-metre-long path is called “Plank Road in the Sky”. We had never seen that steep cliff. Most climbers were frightened to tremble. Holding the chains tightly, we didn’t dare to look downward, and had a very difficult time in inching that distance carefully. Tired but excited, we reached the West Peak before 6 p.m. and rested at the hotel. After dinner, we spent some time talking with our guides, and picked up some interesting local stories. That night we watched the sky become spectacular with thousands of stars. This was the clearest sky that we had seen in our lives. The fresh air at Mount Hua was a treat! Next my brother and I made sleep a priority. We did happen to wake up a bit before sunrise. At about 5, an incredibly splendid rising sun unfolded before our eyes. That scene, as well as the terrifying climbing, did leave an everlasting impression on us. 4. Where did the writer sleep that night? A. At a luxury hotel in Xi’an. B. In a small tent under the stars. C. At a hotel on the West Peak. D. On the mountainside Mount Hua. 5. What does the underlined word “inching” in paragraph three probably mean? A. Moving slowly. B. Lying quietly. C. Shaking violently. D. Walking swiftly. 6. What’s the main idea of paragraph 4? A. They watched the sky and observed stars. B. They made friends with some local tourists. C. They had a hard time climbing Mount Hua. D. They enjoyed themselves having a good rest. 7. How did the author feel about their trip to Mount Hua? A. Different but relaxing. B. Depressing and tiring. C. Difficult but impressive. D. Familiar and comfortable. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了兄弟俩攀登华山的经历。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Tired but excited, we reached the West Peak before 6 p.m. and rested at the hotel.( 我们累了，但很兴奋，下午6点前到达了西峰，在酒店休息)”以及最后一段“Next my brother and I made sleep a priority. We did happen to wake up a bit before sunrise.( 接下来，我和哥哥把睡眠作为首要任务。我们确实在日出前醒来了)”可知，作者下午到达华山西峰的酒店，晚上在酒店住宿，故选C项。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“We had never seen that steep cliff. Most climbers were frightened to tremble. Holding the chains tightly, we didn’t dare to look downward, and had a very difficult time(我们从未见过那陡峭的悬崖。大多数登山者都吓得发抖。我们紧紧地抓住链子，不敢往下看，很艰难地……那短距离)”可知大家走那短距离很担心很困难，可推理出划线词的含义应为“慢慢移动”含义，故选A项。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“After dinner, we spent some time talking with our guides, and picked up some interesting local stories. That night we watched the sky become spectacular with thousands of stars. This was the clearest sky that we had seen in our lives. The fresh air at Mount Hua was a treat!( 晚饭后，我们花了一些时间与导游交谈，并了解了一些有趣的当地故事。那天晚上，我们看到天空变得壮观，有成千上万的星星。这是我们一生中见过的最晴朗的天空。华山的新鲜空气真是太棒了)”可知作者从导游那里了解了有趣的当地故事、欣赏了华山的夜空并享受了华山的新鲜空气，可推理出本段主要讲的是他们好好地享受了休息的时刻，故选D项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“We had never seen that steep cliff. Most climbers were frightened to tremble. Holding the chains tightly, we didn’t dare to look downward, and had a very difficult time in inching that distance carefully(我们从未见过那陡峭的悬崖。大多数登山者都吓得发抖。我们紧紧地抓住链子，不敢往下看，很难小心翼翼地慢慢走完这段距离)”可推理出爬华山很艰难。根据最后一段“At about 5, an incredibly splendid rising sun unfolded before our eyes. That scene, as well as the terrifying climbing, did leave an everlasting impression on us.( 大约5点，一个令人难以置信的灿烂的朝阳出现在我们眼前。那一幕，以及那可怕的攀登，确实给我们留下了永恒的印象)”可知华山景色迷人，给人留下深刻印象，故选C项。 You may not realize it, but you are doing much more than just studying when you are at school. School is also the place where you learn to get on well with people. But this is not always easy. What can you do if you just don't like one of your classmates? If you discover that you have problems getting on with your classmates or friends, the most important thing to learn is tolerance. Tolerance is the ability to realize and respect the differences in others. We cannot change the way that other people do, so it is important to learn to live happily with them. Tolerance will make everyone get on better with each other. Getting to know someone may help you understand why he does things differently. Something different does not exactly mean that it is bad. Tolerance teaches us to keep a temperate and open mind. You need to remember an old saying, “Treat others how you want to be treated.” If you tolerate something, it does not mean that you have to like it. No one is asking you to change who you are or what you believe in. Tolerance just means that you should respect the differences in others and not try to make them change. It is important to practice tolerance, because it will make everyone's life easier. Learn to accept people for their different abilities and interests. The world is very different, and practicing tolerance in your own school and city can help make a difference. 8. This passage is trying to tell us ________. A. what's important for a student B. what students should do at school C. how to treat people different from us D. how to get others to do things in the right way 9.

C 9. D 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【分析】本文是说明文。文章介绍了宽容在人们生活中的重要地位，是生活中的一缕阳光，一片朝霞，一场润物细无声的春雨。以律人之心律己，以恕已之心恕人，多一点对别人的宽容，我们的生命就多了一份自由和快乐。 【8题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“What can you do if you just don't like one of your classmates?”（如果你只是不喜欢某个同学，你会怎么办?）结合下文对宽容的介绍得知，本文主要讲述的是如何让别人以正确的方式做事。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“You may not realize it, but you are doing much more than just studying when you are at school. School is also the place where you learn to get on well with people. ”（你可能没有意识到，但当你在学校的时候，你做的不仅仅是学习。学校也是你学习与人相处的地方）得知，除了学习，学生们还在学校学习其他的东西。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“ Tolerance is the ability to realize and respect the differences in others. We cannot change the way that other people do, so it is important to learn to live happily with them.”（宽容是意识到并尊重他人差异的能力。我们不能改变别人的行为方式，所以学会与他们快乐地生活是很重要的）得知，宽容是接受别人本来的样子。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The world is very different, and practicing tolerance in your own school and city can help make a difference.”（世界是非常不同的，在你自己的学校和城市中练习宽容可以帮助改变世界）得知，在学校练习宽容可以帮助创造一个更美好的世界。故选C。 Of all the creatures on the planet, the narwhal is one of the strangest looking. It’s a whale which has a large protruding tusk coming out of its head; that’s how it got, its nickname, the unicorn of the sea. They live in the Arctic Ocean off the coast of Canada, Russia and East Greenland. However, experts say some populations of narwhal could be extinct by 2025, and it’s all because of noise pollution. Narwhals rely on echolocation, which they use to find food and navigate their surroundings. The animal produces a sound wave which bounces off an object. They pick this reflected sound up through their lower jaw, and information on features like size and speed passes to their ears. However, increase in human marine activity, as well as climate change, has resulted in the Arctic Ocean becoming noisier, which means it’s more difficult for narwhals to rely on sound. Susanna Blackwell, who studies the effects of underwater noise on marine animals, told the BBC that there is noisier activity in the Arctic Ocean than ever because, as sea ice melts, new navigation routes are opening. And while icebergs breaking and creaking have been part of the ocean soundscape for hundreds of years, man-made noise is much harder for animals to adapt to, particularly as these changes are so sudden. Research published in Science Advances in 2023 recorded the reactions of narwhals to the simulated (模拟的) noises of oil expeditions made by a patrol vessel (巡逻船). The scientists tagged and tracked the creatures and found that, on hearing these sounds, they ended deep dives and stopped clicking, the echolocation signal they use for finding food underwater. This is the same reaction narwhals have to orcas, who hunt them, meaning human-made noise could trigger the creature’s “threat button”. So, what can we do? Charlotte Findlay, a postdoctoral fellow at Aarhus University, says “noise is actually quite easy to solve. We need to either turn it off or turn it down.” 12. What can we learn about the narwhal from the first paragraph? A. It has a large tusk from its jaw. B. It currently faces the risk of dying out. C. It lives in the southern hemisphere. D. It sounds different from other whales. 13. What does Susanna Blackwell’s study show? A. Narwhals navigate their surroundings by echolocation. B. Sea ice melting makes the ocean noisier than ever. C. Man-made noise has a greater impact on marine animals. D. Narwhals are not used to icebergs breaking and creaking. 14. What does the research mentioned in paragraph 3 imply? A. A patrol vessel was applied in the research. B. Orcas are the natural enemy to narwhals. C. Noises would change the echolocation signal. D. Scientists tagged narwhals under the water. 15. What’s the best title for the passage? A. Survival of Narwhal threatened by man-made noise. B. Experts predicting the extinction of the narwhal. C. New research set to solve underwater noise pollution. D. Narwhal population affected by underwater noise pollution. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了独角鲸这一生物，阐述了它们的生活习性、生存现状以及所面临的威胁，特别是人为噪音对它们生存的影响。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“However, experts say some populations of narwhal could be extinct by 2025, and it’s all because of noise pollution. (然而，专家表示，到2025年，一些独角鲸种群可能会灭绝，这都是因为噪音污染)”可知，独角鲸目前面临着灭绝的危险。故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Susanna Blackwell, who studies the effects of underwater noise on marine animals, told the BBC that there is noisier activity in the Arctic Ocean than ever because, as sea ice melts, new navigation routes are opening. And while icebergs breaking and creaking have been part of the ocean soundscape for hundreds of years, man-made noise is much harder for animals to adapt to, particularly as these changes are so sudden. ( Susanna Blackwell研究水下噪音对海洋动物的影响，她告诉BBC，北冰洋的活动比以往任何时候都要嘈杂，因为随着海冰融化，新的航行路线正在开辟。数百年来，冰山破裂和吱吱作响一直是海洋声景的一部分，但人造噪音对动物来说更难适应，尤其是这些变化太突然了)”可知，Susanna Blackwell的研究显示人造噪音对海洋动物的影响更大。故选C项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Research published in Science Advances in 2023 recorded the reactions of narwhals to the simulated (模拟的) noises of oil expeditions made by a patrol vessel (巡逻船). The scientists tagged and tracked the creatures and found that, on hearing these sounds, they ended deep dives and stopped clicking, the echolocation signal they use for finding food underwater. This is the same reaction narwhals have to orcas, who hunt them, meaning human-made noise could trigger the creature’s “threat button”. (2023 年发表在《科学进展》上的一项研究记录了独角鲸对巡逻船模拟的石油勘探噪声的反应。科学家们对这些生物进行了标记和追踪，发现它们听到这些声音后，会结束深潜，停止发出点击声，即它们在水下觅食时使用的回声定位信号。这是独角鲸对捕食它们的逆戟鲸做出的同样反应，这意味着人为制造的噪音可能会触发这种生物的“威胁按钮”)”可知，巡逻船模拟的石油勘探噪声会让独角鲸结束深潜，停止发出水下觅食时使用的回声定位信号。由此推知，本段暗示了噪音会改变回声定位信号。故选C项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。纵观全文，尤其是第一段中“However, experts say some populations of narwhal could be extinct by 2025, and it’s all because of noise pollution. (然而，专家表示，到2025年，一些独角鲸种群可能会灭绝，这都是因为噪音污染)”可知，文章主要讲述了人为噪音对独角鲸生存的威胁。所以A项“Survival of Narwhal threatened by man-made noise (人造噪音威胁独角鲸的生存)”是本文的最佳标题。故选A项。 The Eiffel Tower is host to more than 7 million visitors per year, with almost 70 percent of those visitors from countries other than France.____16____ Use these tips to learn how to visit the Eiffel Tower.

(使用了不定式充当真正主语) 六、书面表达 47. 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。 Every Saturday, Bibi hung out at her grandma’s laundry and dry-cleaning store while her mother went to work. Bibi loved being with her grandma, but she wanted to do more than just draw and read. “How about I give you a hand with the chores?” Bibi offered. “But you are too small. Why don’t you draw for a little while?” Grandma suggested, “You’re such a good artist.” “But I want to help you.” Bibi sighed. Bibi was too short to reach the tall rod that held the fresh clothes in neat alphabetical order. Grandma didn’t want her handling the hot presser or the iron. She could slide the stiff cardboard into the starched (浆洗过的) shirts, but that was about it. “Why don’t you draw a picture of more customers coming in?” Grandma joked. “Maybe that would help!” Bibi went outside. It was a crisp fall day. The last leaves were starting their lazy drift to the ground. She spotted her neighbour, Stephanie, across the street. Stephanie was painting big letters on the window of the hardware store. “Stephanie! You are going to get in trouble.” Stephanie laughed. “The high-school cheer-leading team is painting windows for our homecoming football game next weekend. Some of the shop owners said we could.” “Does that paint wash off?” Bibi asked. “Yep. It’s just cornflour, soap, and food coloring,” said Stephanie. Bibi saw other kids from the high school painting designs on window up and down the street. GO, TIGERS said the window of the nail salon in huge letter. HEAR US ROAR! said the window of the coffee shop. “I can help you!” Bibi called to Stephanie, her heart pounding. “I can draw!” “Sorry, Bibs,” Stephanie said. “I’m out of paint, and I have to get home. Thank you, though!” Bibi was so disappointed. She stared at Grandma’s windows. They were bare. 注意: 1.续写词数应为 150 左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 All of a sudden, Bibi hit on a good idea. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The moment she was finished, Bibi went inside to get Grandma. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】All of a sudden, Bibi hit on a good idea. She went to the mini market on the corner and bought a small box of cornflour and a little package of food coloring. The dish soap was found from under the sink. Mixing the materials together, she stirred them until the mixture was smooth and thick like paint. Everything was ready. Walking up to the windows with the paint, Bibi wrote her message, outlined the words with a washable black marker and filled in the letters with different colors. Then came the fun part. She took extra time drawing a picture. The moment she was finished, Bibi went inside to get Grandma. A bunch of kids had gathered there when they came back out. “Great job!” said one girl. “Perfect,” said another. Bibi’s grandmother looked up at the window to see what the fuss was about.
