Science fiction is no different. In light of that, we have rounded up some of the best sci-fi novels of all time. Dune - Author: Frank Herbert - Date published: 1965 One of the most beloved sci-fi novels of all time, Dune received a theatrical release in 2020. It was not the first time the coming-of-age story about a young man who must fight for his own life as well as the existence of his planet hit the big screen. The War of the Worlds - Author: H.G. Wells - Date published: 1898 The father of science fiction, H.G Wells, wrote this novel, in which a group of aliens (外星人) attacks Earth, destroying everything in their path. When the novel was first turned into radio broadcast in 1938, it caused public panic as many listeners didn’t realize it was fiction. The Giver - Author: Lois Lowry - Date published: 1993 Arguably the most widely read science fiction novel, The Giver follows a young man named Jonas, who is set to become the Receiver of Memory within his society. As his training gets underway, he begins to realize that the society he is in may not be all that perfect. The Three-Body Problem - Author: Liu Cixin - Date published: 2006 Liu Cixin is one of China’s most beloved science fiction authors, and The Three-Body Problem marks English-speaking readers’ first opportunity to engage with his work. In the book, a group of aliens plan to occupy Earth. On Earth, some humans plan to side with the aliens and others plan to fight back. 1. Who is the father of science fiction? A. Frank Herbert. B. H.G. Wells. C. Lois Lowry. D. Liu Cixin. 2. Which book was written by a Chinese? A. Dune. B. The Giver. C. The War of the Worlds. D. The Three-Body Problem. 3. What do the four books have in common? A. They help readers to understand the world. B. They taught young people to fight for life. C. They were all published in the 90s. D. They are all about aliens. 【答案】1. B 2. D 3. A 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了有史以来最好的四本科幻小说。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据The War of the Worlds中的“The father of science fiction, H.G Wells, wrote this novel, in which a group of aliens (外星人) attacks Earth, destroying everything in their path.( 科幻小说之父H.G Wells写了这部小说，讲述了一群外星人袭击地球，摧毁了他们所到之处的一切。)”可知，H.G Wells是科幻小说之父。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据The Three-Body Problem中的“Liu Cixin is one of China’s most beloved science fiction authors, and The Three-Body Problem marks English-speaking readers’ first opportunity to engage with his work. (刘慈欣是中国最受欢迎的科幻小说作家之一，《三体》标志着英语读者第一次有机会接触到他的作品。)”可知，科幻小说《三体》是中国人写的。故选D。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Fiction can be a powerful tool for helping individuals make sense of the real world. (小说可以是帮助个人理解现实世界的强大工具。)”可知，这四本书共同点是帮助读者了解世界。故选A。 B Drew Lanham grew up on the farm his grandfather built in Edgefield County, S. C. in the 1920s. Lanbam, now 54, says his father felt a responsibility to stay on the land and care for the animals and crops there. To Lanham, that family land was connected with his love for birds. He would spend hours observing birds like the prairie warbler and the bobwhite quail when he was young. Lanbam said he believed from a very early age he would be someone who studied birds. However, he lost track of that dream on the road to becoming an engineer. “Before I left for college, everyone around me said, “You’re good at math and science. Be an engineer. Make money, Drew. And for a while, I tried that, but hated every last moment of it,” he said. When he took a return trip to the farm, the farm was unrecognizable. All of these wonderful forests that he’d grown up in had been cut. But some wildlife remained. “remember the day when I left. I was driving up this dirt road, and the birds were singing ‘Zee, zee, zee’,” he said. The birds’ song lit a fire under Lanham. After his visit back to the farm, he couldn’t see himself returning to work as an engineer. Therefore, he got on track to study to become an ornithologist (鸟类学家). Lanbam researched the eastern bluebird. “The work was often hot and bard and long hours. But there were moments when I would look up and there would be the songs of birds. These moments made me realize that I was doing what I bad always dreamed of,” he said. Lanham thinks that his turn towards the study of nature is carrying his father’s legacy (溃产) forward. 4. Why did Drew Lanbam become an enginect at first? A. He enjoyed studying math and science. B. He was persuaded by people around. C. He wanted to make big money. D. He lost interest in birds then. 5. What happened during Lanham’s return trip to the farm? A. He was trapped on the dirt road. B. He wanted to save the destroyed farm. C. The birds reminded him of his childhood. D. The birds awakened his love for wildlife. 6. Based on the passage, what is the most likely reason Drew Lanham decided to become an ornithologist? A. He wanted to inherit his father’s land and continue farming. B. He wanted to earn more money to improve his family’s life. C He wanted to follow his passion for nature and birds. D. He wanted to study the migration habits of eastern bluebirds. 7. What does the underlined part in the last paragraph mean? A. Lanbam continued his father’s responsibility. B. Lanham’s father would be proud of his son. C. Lanbam’s job was better than his father’s. D. Lanham expanded the farming land. 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文讲述了Drew Lanham从原本想成为工程师到最终决定成为鸟类学家的转变过程，以及他对自然和鸟类的热爱。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Before I left for college, everyone around me said, “You’re good at math and science. Be an engineer. Make money, Drew. And for a while, I tried that, but hated every last moment of it.”(在我上大学之前，我周围的每个人都说，“你擅长数学和科学。成为一名工程师吧。Drew，去赚钱吧。有一段时间，我尝试了，但我讨厌每一刻。”)”可知，Drew Lanham最初想成为工程师是因为他周围的人都劝他这么做。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The birds’ song lit a fire under Lanham. After his visit back to the farm, he couldn’t see himself returning to work as an engineer.Therefore, he got on track to study to become an ornithologist (鸟类学家)(鸟儿的歌声在Lanham心中燃起了一把火。回到农场后，他无法想象自己会回到工程师的工作岗位上。因此，他踏上了学习成为一名鸟类学家的道路)”可知，在Lanham回到农场的旅途中，鸟儿的歌声唤醒了他对野生动物的热爱。故选D。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“The work was often hot and bard and long hours. But there were moments when I would look up and there would be the songs of birds. These moments made me realize that I was doing what I had always dreamed of.(这项工作经常很热、很辛苦，而且工作时间很长。但有时我会抬头看，会听到鸟儿的歌声。这些时刻让我意识到我正在做我一直梦想的事情。)”可知，Drew Lanham决定成为鸟类学家的最可能原因是他想追随他对自然和鸟类的热情。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“his father felt a responsibility to stay on the land and care for the animals and crops there.(他的父亲觉得有责任留在这片土地上，照顾那里的动物和庄稼。)”及划线句子“his turn towards the study of nature is carrying his father’s legacy (溃产) forward.(他转向对自然的研究，是在将父亲的遗产传承下去。)”可推知，划线部分的意思是“他继续着父亲（照顾这片土地）的责任”。故选A。 C The term “underemployment” has three related meanings. In one sense, it refers to a situation in which someone with excellent job qualifications is working in a position that requires less qualifications, as for instance in the case of a lawyer driving a school bus. In the second sense, it means working part­time when one would prefer to be working full­time. In the third sense, it is a form of over­staffing (人浮于事) in which employees are not being fully made use of. All forms of underemployment have effect on the economy and the health of the business community. Long-term underemployment can also cover up the truth behind the employment situations. When nations collect employment statistics, they usually come up with a base number of “unemployed” individuals, using that number to judge the health of the job market. This number does not include part­time workers looking for full­time jobs, as they are considered employed, and it also doesn’t reflect workers who are underpaid, considering their qualifications. In the first sense, underemployment is a common problem in many of the developed world. Many people with college degrees are working in low­level or service industry jobs because the job market is full. The issue of part­time employment is also very serious. Some people are forced into part•time jobs, while others find themselves taking a part­time job because nothing else is available, even though they really need to work full­time. This problem is especially common in areas with seasonal employment, where employers find it cheaper to maintain and lay off part­time staffs, rather than keeping a full staff at all times. In the sense of shortage of workers, underemployment appears in a variety of situations. Some companies maintain a full staff to be prepared for seasonal work, or to keep well­trained, qualified workers so that they will be available when needed. Labor laws and union pressures may also prevent a company from cutting down on staff or working hours, leading to a situation in which people report to work, but have nothing to do. 8. What does underemployment mean according to the passage? A. The same meaning as the word — unemployed. B. Employees are not fully taken charge of. C. Qualified workers get a low salary. D. People who do manual work for wages. 9. What can we know when it comes to unemployment statistics? A. The underpaid workers are included. B. It implies the people who are jobless. C. The part­time employees are included. D. It shows the employment situation of a country. 10. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A. Underemployment only occurs in advanced countries. B. People with college degrees sometimes take a part­time job. C. Part­time staffs seem to benefit from firms less. D. Companies need full­time staffs indeed. 11. What’s the purpose of the passage? A. To show underemployment is becoming more serious today. B. To imply women are laid off more than men. C. To explain the meaning of “underemployment”． D. To tell the present economic situations. 【答案】8. B 9. B 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了“就业不足”这一术语的三种相关含义，并分析了其对经济和商业界健康的影响。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The term “underemployment” has three related meanings…In the third sense, it is a form of over­staffing in which employees are not being fully made use of. (“就业不足”一词有三个相关含义……在第三种意义上，它是一种人员过剩的形式，员工没有得到充分利用。)”可知，“就业不足”意味着员工没有得到充分利用。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“When nations collect employment statistics, they usually come up with a base number of “unemployed” individuals, using that number to judge the health of the job market. (当各国收集就业统计数据时，他们通常会得出一个“失业”人员的基本数字，用这个数字来判断就业市场的健康状况。)”可知，失业统计暗示了没有工作的人。故选B。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“In the first sense, underemployment is a common problem in many of the developed world. (在第一种意义上，就业不足在许多发达国家是一个普遍的问题。)”可知，就业不足在许多发达国家是一个普遍的问题，但并不意味着它只发生在发达国家，所以选项A错误。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“The term “underemployment” has three related meanings. (“就业不足”一词有三个相关含义。)”可知，文章第一段就点明了主题，即解释“就业不足”的含义。故选C。 D College and high-school teachers are expressing concern about ChatGPT, an AI program that allows people with limited writing skills to create high-quality texts. It calls into question how and why we teach writing at all. If AI can do a fairly good job at most writing tasks, why spend so much time learning writing in school? In fact, learning to write goes beyond just mastering grammar, punctuation, and sentence structure. It involves much more. For one thing, it’s about learning to turn a loose set of thoughts into a clear line of reasoning — a skill that is useful for everyone, not just those who enjoy writing or need to do a lot of it for work. Learning to write also trains your imagination to construct the person who will read your words. It puts you in relation to someone you may not know, someone who may even not exist. When you learn to write, you learn to meet their needs in an unfamiliar context. Even ordinary assignments teach students to predict what another person knows and expects. Writing is never simply self-expression. It’s expression to a specific audience for a specific purpose. In some cases, like a love letter, a writer knows their audience very well. In others, the audience is every bit a work of the imagination as a novel’s characters are. Writers, then, should give up trying to address the public at large, but should imagine that a friend, though not the closest friend, is listening to our talk. When this act of imagination is done well, a reader can feel deeply understood, as if a stranger has told them some previously unknown truth about themselves. That’s how I felt reading “Difference Maker” — an essay about parenthood. While our situations were unique, naming the problem provided a deeper understanding. It seems unavoidable that large-language models of AI will allow us to offload some of the writing tasks that students learn in school. But we can’t allow ourselves to lose the capacity to empathize (共情) with distant strangers at just the moment when we’re more able than ever to communicate with them. 12. What is teachers’ concern about ChatGPT? A. It’s a challenge to apply it to teaching. B. It’s hard to grade a paper written by it. C. It limits students’ imagination and creativity. D. It questions the necessity of teaching writing. 13. What does the author think of learning to write? A. It helps with logical thinking. B. It is a basic skill for everyone. C. It focuses on correct expression. D. It is closely related to social skills. 14. What makes writing effective according to the text? A. Expressing oneself. B. Targeting intended readers. C. Conveying imaginative ideas. D. Creating attractive characters. 15. What may be a suitable title for the text? A. What AI Can’t Teach the Writing Students B. ChatGPT Writing VS Traditional Writing C. Never Lose the Capacity for Empathy D. What Is the Future for AI Writing 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。虽然人工智能可以完成高水平的写作任务，但有些东西是它无法做到的，例如写作可以把一套松散的想法变成一条清晰的推理线，写作训练人们的想象力，针对不同的目标读者写作方式不同。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“If AI can do a fairly good job at most writing tasks, why spend so much time learning writing in school?(如果人工智能在大多数写作任务中都能做得相当好，那为什么要花那么多时间在学校学习写作呢？)”可知，关于ChatGPT，老师关注是它质疑教学写作的必要性。故选D。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“For one thing, it’s about learning to turn a loose set of thoughts into a clear line of reasoning — a skill that is useful for everyone, not just those who enjoy writing or need to do a lot of it for work.(首先，它是关于学习将一套松散的想法变成一条清晰的推理线——这是一项对每个人都有用的技能，而不仅仅是那些喜欢写作或需要为工作做很多事情的人)”可知，作者认为学习写作有助于逻辑思维。故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Writing is never simply self-expression. It’s expression to a specific audience for a specific purpose.(写作从来不是简单的自我表达。它是为特定目的而对特定受众的表达)”可知，针对目标读者使写作有效。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，并根据第一段“College and high-school teachers are expressing concern about ChatGPT, an AI program that allows people with limited writing skills to create high-quality texts. It calls into question how and why we teach writing at all. If AI can do a fairly good job at most writing tasks, why spend so much time learning writing in school?(大学和高中教师对ChatGPT表达了担忧，这是一个人工智能程序，可以让写作技能有限的人创作高质量的文本。这引发了我们如何以及为什么要教写作的问题。如果人工智能在大多数写作任务中都能做得相当好，那为什么要花那么多时间在学校学习写作呢？)”可知，虽然人工智能可以完成高水平的写作任务，但有些东西是它无法做到的，例如写作可以把一套松散的想法变成一条清晰的推理线，写作训练人们的想象力，针对不同的目标读者写作方式不同。因此A选项“人工智能不能教给写作学生的东西”最符合文章标题。故选A。 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The jobs of the future have not yet been invented. ____16____ By helping them develop classic skills that will serve them well no matter what the future holds. 1.

My little brother Andy was following me, with a sleeping bag, a flashlight, and his stuffed bear. My friends Wade and Bred think Andy would ruin everything. He would get scared in the middle of the night and have to be taken back to the house. They complained so much you'd think they were hospital patients instead of kids I'd invited for an outdoor sleepover. Andy promised that he wouldn't ruin anything. He wormed his way into the tent and settled in the far corner. Night was settling in, too, with the woods around us fading toward black. The house, with its porch light, seemed a long way from us. “Time for ghost stories!” Brad announced as soon as I'd closed the tent. He told a story about vampires （吸血鬼）, but it only made us fall over laughing. When it was Wade's turn, he told a story of three guys who were camping in a tent. He described our situation exactly-except for Andy. When he was describing a terrifying creature, somewhere outside, a branch snapped （发出咔嚓声）。The hairs on my arms shot straight up. “These guys were crawling into their sleeping bags, right?” Wade continued. “When out of the darkness rang this terrible cry.” And out of the woods behind us there was a cry! High-pitched, frightening, and strange. The hairs on my head shot straight up! “What was that?” Bred asked as the cry came again. We all looked at each other in horror, speechless. Wade suggested someone should go out to check, but no one dared. “What if it's something trapped or hurt?” Andy said anxiously. We focused our flashlights on Andy, whom we'd forgotten, sitting in the corner with his arms around his bear. Andy would adopt every lost or hurt animal in the world if Mom would let him. 注意： 1.续写的词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答 “I'm going to see.” Andy ran out of the tent and disappeared in the darkness. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Andy said it was a baby monkey caught between branches, and it was crying for its mama. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】“I’m going to see.” Andy ran out of the tent and disappeared in the darkness. Although filled with fear, I ran after him without hesitation. He was my little brother after all. Andy was headed into the woods, his flashlight beam wobbling along the trail. Finally I saw him, a few yards ahead, with his flashlight aimed at the upper branches of a large tree. I raised my own light to shine on the same spot. A pair of shining eyes seemed to float in the darkness. My heart pounded harder. Andy said it was a baby monkey caught between branches, and it was crying for its mama. I knew he was right. I had to admit that Andy was impressive. We helped the little monkey out carefully. Having ensured that the little monkey was in good condition, we let it go. When we walked down back, I could see the guys gathered before the tent. “Are you all right?” They asked. “We’re fine.” I answered with a broad smile, knowing that the guys’ opinion of Andy would change, too. 【解析】 【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者带着弟弟安迪一起去户外过夜，朋友不想让安迪和他们一起，安迪独自一人搭了个帐篷，在作者和朋友说鬼故事时外面发出了响声，安迪很有勇气的出去帮助了一只夹在树枝的猴子的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容““我去看看。”安迪跑出帐篷，消失在黑暗中。”可知，第一段可描写安迪出去找出响声的场面。 ②由第二段首句内容“安迪说那是一只夹在树枝间的小猴子，它在哭着找妈妈。”可知，第二段可描写安迪的勇气使作者的朋友的态度改变。 2.续写线索：出去——惊恐——真相大白——救助——回去——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.充满：be filled with/be full of/abound with ②.举起：raise/lift/upborn 情绪类 ①.小心翼翼：out carefully/with great care/very cautiously ②.积极：positive attitude/act positively 【点睛】 [高分句型1].

B Drew Lanham grew up on the farm his grandfather built in Edgefield County, S. C. in the 1920s. Lanbam, now 54, says his father felt a responsibility to stay on the land and care for the animals and crops there. To Lanham, that family land was connected with his love for birds. He would spend hours observing birds like the prairie warbler and the bobwhite quail when he was young. Lanbam said he believed from a very early age he would be someone who studied birds. However, he lost track of that dream on the road to becoming an engineer. “Before I left for college, everyone around me said, “You’re good at math and science. Be an engineer. Make money, Drew. And for a while, I tried that, but hated every last moment of it,” he said. When he took a return trip to the farm, the farm was unrecognizable. All of these wonderful forests that he’d grown up in had been cut. But some wildlife remained. “remember the day when I left. I was driving up this dirt road, and the birds were singing ‘Zee, zee, zee’,” he said. The birds’ song lit a fire under Lanham. After his visit back to the farm, he couldn’t see himself returning to work as an engineer. Therefore, he got on track to study to become an ornithologist (鸟类学家). Lanbam researched the eastern bluebird. “The work was often hot and bard and long hours. But there were moments when I would look up and there would be the songs of birds. These moments made me realize that I was doing what I bad always dreamed of,” he said. Lanham thinks that his turn towards the study of nature is carrying his father’s legacy (溃产) forward. 4. Why did Drew Lanbam become an enginect at first? A He enjoyed studying math and science. B. He was persuaded by people around. C. He wanted to make big money. D. He lost interest in birds then. 5. What happened during Lanham’s return trip to the farm? A. He was trapped on the dirt road. B. He wanted to save the destroyed farm. C. The birds reminded him of his childhood. D. The birds awakened his love for wildlife. 6. Based on the passage, what is the most likely reason Drew Lanham decided to become an ornithologist? A. He wanted to inherit his father’s land and continue farming. B. He wanted to earn more money to improve his family’s life. C. He wanted to follow his passion for nature and birds. D. He wanted to study the migration habits of eastern bluebirds. 7. What does the underlined part in the last paragraph mean? A. Lanbam continued his father’s responsibility. B. Lanham’s father would be proud of his son. C. Lanbam’s job was better than his father’s. D. Lanham expanded the farming land. C The term “underemployment” has three related meanings. In one sense, it refers to a situation in which someone with excellent job qualifications is working in a position that requires less qualifications, as for instance in the case of a lawyer driving a school bus. In the second sense, it means working part­time when one would prefer to be working full­time. In the third sense, it is a form of over­staffing (人浮于事) in which employees are not being fully made use of. All forms of underemployment have effect on the economy and the health of the business community. Long-term underemployment can also cover up the truth behind the employment situations. When nations collect employment statistics, they usually come up with a base number of “unemployed” individuals, using that number to judge the health of the job market. This number does not include part­time workers looking for full­time jobs, as they are considered employed, and it also doesn’t reflect workers who are underpaid, considering their qualifications. In the first sense, underemployment is a common problem in many of the developed world. Many people with college degrees are working in low­level or service industry jobs because the job market is full. The issue of part­time employment is also very serious. Some people are forced into part•time jobs, while others find themselves taking a part­time job because nothing else is available, even though they really need to work full­time. This problem is especially common in areas with seasonal employment, where employers find it cheaper to maintain and lay off part­time staffs, rather than keeping a full staff at all times. In the sense of shortage of workers, underemployment appears in a variety of situations. Some companies maintain a full staff to be prepared for seasonal work, or to keep well­trained, qualified workers so that they will be available when needed. Labor laws and union pressures may also prevent a company from cutting down on staff or working hours, leading to a situation in which people report to work, but have nothing to do. 8. What does underemployment mean according to the passage? A. The same meaning as the word — unemployed. B. Employees are not fully taken charge of. C. Qualified workers get a low salary. D. People who do manual work for wages. 9. What can we know when it comes to unemployment statistics? A. The underpaid workers are included. B. It implies the people who are jobless. C. The part­time employees are included. D. It shows the employment situation of a country. 10. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A. Underemployment only occurs in advanced countries. B. People with college degrees sometimes take a part­time job. C. Part­time staffs seem to benefit from firms less. D Companies need full­time staffs indeed. 11. What’s the purpose of the passage? A. To show underemployment is becoming more serious today. B. To imply women are laid off more than men. C. To explain the meaning of “underemployment”． D. To tell the present economic situations. D College and high-school teachers are expressing concern about ChatGPT, an AI program that allows people with limited writing skills to create high-quality texts. It calls into question how and why we teach writing at all. If AI can do a fairly good job at most writing tasks, why spend so much time learning writing in school? In fact, learning to write goes beyond just mastering grammar, punctuation, and sentence structure. It involves much more. For one thing, it’s about learning to turn a loose set of thoughts into a clear line of reasoning — a skill that is useful for everyone, not just those who enjoy writing or need to do a lot of it for work. Learning to write also trains your imagination to construct the person who will read your words. It puts you in relation to someone you may not know, someone who may even not exist. When you learn to write, you learn to meet their needs in an unfamiliar context. Even ordinary assignments teach students to predict what another person knows and expects. Writing is never simply self-expression. It’s expression to a specific audience for a specific purpose. In some cases, like a love letter, a writer knows their audience very well. In others, the audience is every bit a work of the imagination as a novel’s characters are. Writers, then, should give up trying to address the public at large, but should imagine that a friend, though not the closest friend, is listening to our talk. When this act of imagination is done well, a reader can feel deeply understood, as if a stranger has told them some previously unknown truth about themselves. That’s how I felt reading “Difference Maker” — an essay about parenthood. While our situations were unique, naming the problem provided a deeper understanding. It seems unavoidable that large-language models of AI will allow us to offload some of the writing tasks that students learn in school. But we can’t allow ourselves to lose the capacity to empathize (共情) with distant strangers at just the moment when we’re more able than ever to communicate with them. 12. What is teachers’ concern about ChatGPT? A. It’s a challenge to apply it to teaching. B. It’s hard to grade a paper written by it. C. It limits students’ imagination and creativity. D. It questions the necessity of teaching writing. 13. What does the author think of learning to write? A. It helps with logical thinking. B. It is a basic skill for everyone. C. It focuses on correct expression. D. It is closely related to social skills. 14. What makes writing effective according to the text? A. Expressing oneself. B. Targeting intended readers. C.

My little brother Andy was following me, with a sleeping bag, a flashlight, and his stuffed bear. My friends Wade and Bred think Andy would ruin everything. He would get scared in the middle of the night and have to be taken back to the house. They complained so much you'd think they were hospital patients instead of kids I'd invited for an outdoor sleepover. Andy promised that he wouldn't ruin anything. He wormed his way into the tent and settled in the far corner. Night was settling in, too, with the woods around us fading toward black. The house, with its porch light, seemed a long way from us. “Time for ghost stories!” Brad announced as soon as I'd closed the tent. He told a story about vampires （吸血鬼）, but it only made us fall over laughing. When it was Wade's turn, he told a story of three guys who were camping in a tent. He described our situation exactly-except for Andy. When he was describing a terrifying creature, somewhere outside, a branch snapped （发出咔嚓声）。The hairs on my arms shot straight up. “These guys were crawling into their sleeping bags, right?” Wade continued. “When out of the darkness rang this terrible cry.” And out of the woods behind us there was a cry! High-pitched, frightening, and strange. The hairs on my head shot straight up! “What was that?” Bred asked as the cry came again. We all looked at each other in horror, speechless. Wade suggested someone should go out to check, but no one dared. “What if it's something trapped or hurt?” Andy said anxiously. We focused our flashlights on Andy, whom we'd forgotten, sitting in the corner with his arms around his bear. Andy would adopt every lost or hurt animal in the world if Mom would let him. 注意： 1.续写的词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答 “I'm going to see.” Andy ran out of the tent and disappeared in the darkness. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Andy said it was a baby monkey caught between branches, and it was crying for its mama. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
