He started with toys and even broke a computer, which made his parents not too pleased. As he got older, he shifted from breaking things to building things, which greatly comforted his parents. In middle school. he started working on projects in his kitchen laboratory, and his first project was making biofuels. Although Jaggi’s parents initially thought his experiments were just. a boyhood fancy, he remained determined to make a difference to the environment. Eventually, his parents came around and started supporting his dreams. Jaggi’s interest continued as he grew up, but he focused more on solving real problems, especially those related to the environment. At 17, Jaggi went beyond his school projects and. co-founded Ecoviate, a company that uses technology to solve everyday energy and environmental problems. He planned to transform people’s idea that going green is expensive, by making available a series of affordable products that are easy to use. Through Ecoviate, he designed products that could contribute to a greener future. One of his notable inventions was the “CO2ube”, a device that could be attached to vehicle tailpipes to reduce carbon emissions, and it’s available to many people at low prices. He also created a smartwatch that changed body heat into energy, which can be used to power up the watch as well as mobile phones. Young Jaggi now a third-grade college student studying engineering and economics, has become a famous eco-innovator and his company is developing promisingly. However, Jaggi’s vision to save the environment goes beyond creating products. He plans to launch an online platform through Ecoviate, which will encourage young students interested in science and technology to get actively involved in innovation and invention. Students can submit a science project online, and talk about the help that they need to make the project a reality. 4. What can we learn about Jaggi? A. He was curious by nature. B.

B 【解析】 【导语】本文是记叙文。它讲述了Param Jaggi从小对拆解事物的热爱，到后来转变为创造事物，特别是关注环境问题的解决。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“When Param Jaggi was five years old, he had a passion to take things apart to see what was inside. He started with toys and even broke a computer, which made his parents not too pleased.(当帕拉姆·贾吉五岁的时候，他就热衷于拆卸东西看看里面是什么。他从玩具开始，甚至弄坏了一台电脑，这让他的父母很不高兴)”可知，帕拉姆·贾吉从小热衷于拆卸东西看看里面是什么，所以推知他生性好奇。故选A项。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据前文“Although Jaggi’s parents initially thought his experiments were just. a boyhood fancy, he remained determined to make a difference to the environment.(尽管贾吉的父母最初认为他的实验只是男孩子的一时兴起，但他仍然坚定地想要为环境做出改变)”以及后文“started supporting his dreams(开始支持他的梦想)”可知，起初，贾吉的父母认为他的实验只是男孩子的一时兴起，后面开始支持他，所以是父母的改变了主意，推知came around意为“改变主意”，和B项意思相近。故选B项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Jaggi’s interest continued as he grew up, but he focused more on solving real problems, especially those related to the environment.(贾吉的兴趣随着年龄的增长而持续，但他更加专注于解决现实问题，尤其是与环境相关的问题)”以及第三段“At 17, Jaggi went beyond his school projects and. co-founded Ecoviate, a company that uses technology to solve everyday energy and environmental problems. He planned to transform people’s idea that going green is expensive, by making available a series of affordable products that are easy to use. Through Ecoviate, he designed products that could contribute to a greener future.(17岁时，贾吉超越了学校项目的范畴，与他人共同创立了Ecoviate公司，该公司利用技术解决日常的能源和环境问题。他计划通过提供一系列易用且价格实惠的产品来改变人们认为环保成本高昂的观念。通过Ecoviate，他设计了一些有助于创造更绿色未来的产品)”可知，贾吉决心为环境做出改变，他认为绿色是昂贵的观念需要改变，因此他计划推出一系列价格实惠、易于使用的产品。这表明他开发这些产品的驱动力是他想要为环境和社会做出改变，即他的渴望有所不同。故选C项。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Young Jaggi, now a third-grade college student studying engineering and economics, has become a famous eco-innovator and his company is developing promisingly. However, Jaggi’s vision to save the environment goes beyond creating products. He plans to launch an online platform through Ecoviate, which will encourage young students interested in science and technology to get actively involved in innovation and invention. Students can submit a science project online, and talk about the help that they need to make the project a reality.(年轻的贾吉现在是一名学习工程和经济学的三年级大学生，他已经成为了一位著名的生态创新者，他的公司发展前景看好。然而，贾吉拯救环境的愿景不仅仅局限于创造产品。他计划通过Ecoviate推出一个在线平台，鼓励对科学和技术感兴趣的年轻学生积极参与创新和发明。学生可以在线提交科学项目，并谈论他们需要帮助才能使项目成为现实的相关事宜)”可知，贾吉计划通过Ecoviate推出一个在线平台，鼓励对科学和技术感兴趣的年轻学生积极参与创新和发明。因此，贾吉计划推出在线平台的目的是为了赋能年轻的发明家，让他们有更多的机会去创新和发明。故选B项。 C MySpace, the social networking website, is different from other websites which only provide stories about other people. MySpace is a place that allows you to broadcast your own stories and personal information to as many people as you like. Founded in 2003, it is a big source of information for and about American kids. Teenagers and their parents feel very differently about it. Teens are rushing to join the site, not sharing their parents’ worries. It signals yet another generation gap in the digital era. For teenagers, it is reliable network to keep in touch with their friends. They will often list their surnames, birthdays, after-school jobs, school clubs, hobbies and other personal information. “MySpace is an easy way to reach just about everyone. I don’t have all the phone numbers of my acquaintances. But if I want to get in touch with one of them, I could just leave them a message on MySpace,” said Abby Van Wassen. She is a 16-year-old student at Woodland Hills High of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Parents, on the other hand, are seriously concerned about the security problems of MySpace. “Every time we hold a parents meeting, the first question is always about MySpace,” said Kent Gates, who travels the country doing Internet safety seminars (研讨会). The National Centre for Missing and Exploited Children has received at least 288 MySpace-related complaints, according to Mary Beth Buchanan, a lawyer in Pittsburgh. “Your profile on MySpace shows all your personal information to anyone on the Web. And MySpace even lists this information by birthplace and age. It’s like a free checklist for troublemakers and it endangers children,” Buchanan said. 8. From the passage, we can learn that MySpace _________. A. is popular with parents B. is very careful about people’s privacy C. encourages you to list your personal information D. lists the telephone numbers of your friends 9. What can we infer from the sentence “Every time we hold a parents meeting, the first question is always about MySpace”? A. MySpace has become a top issue troubling parents. B. MySpace often holds parents meetings. C. MySpace is quite popular with parents. D. Parents have lots of questions about the website. 10. The writer’s attitude towards MySpace is _________. A. negative B. positive C. optimistic D. objective 11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Internet Safety B. The Digital Era C. Generation Gap D. MySpace 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. D 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一个社交网站MySpace，以及青少年和父母对这个网站的不同态度。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“MySpace is a place that allows you to broadcast your own stories and personal information to as many people as you like. (MySpace是一个允许你向尽可能多的人传播你自己的故事和个人信息的网站)”以及最后一段“Your profile on MySpace shows all your personal information to anyone on the Web. (你在MySpace上的个人资料会向网络上的任何人显示你所有的个人信息)”可推知，MySpace网站鼓励人们在上面发布自己的私人信息。故选C项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Parents, on the other hand, are seriously concerned about the security problems of MySpace. “Every time we hold a parents meeting, the first question is always about MySpace ,” (另一方面，家长们非常担心MySpace的安全问题。“每次我们召开家长会，第一个问题总是关于MySpace的”)”可推知，此处指家长们非常担心MySpace的安全问题，MySpace已经成为困扰家长的首要问题。故选A项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“MySpace, the social networking website, is different from other websites which only provide stories about other people. (社交网站MySpace不同于其他只提供他人故事的网站)”和第三段“For teenagers, it is reliable network to keep in touch with their friends. (对于青少年来说，它是与朋友保持联系的可靠网站)”以及第四段中“Parents, on the other hand, are seriously concerned about the security problems of MySpace. (另一方面，家长们非常担心MySpace的安全问题)”可推知，本文主要介绍了MySpace的独特性，它深受孩子的喜爱，但是父母们对此非常担心。文章并未表述作者对MySpace网站的主观看法，只是客观描述了这个社交网站，因此作者对MySpace的态度是客观的。故选D项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，再根据文章第一段“MySpace is a place that allows you to broadcast your own stories and personal information to as many people as you like. (MySpace是一个允许你向尽可能多的人传播你自己的故事和个人信息的网站)”可推知，本文主要介绍了MySpace这个社交网站。D项“MySpace”符合文意，最适合作为本文标题。故选D项。 D There have been many great inventions that changed the way we live. The first great invention was one that is still very important today-the wheel. This made it easier to carry heavy things. Then in the early 1800s the world started to change. There was little unknown land left in the world. People didn’t have to explore much anymore. They began to work to make life better. In the second half of the 19th century, many great inventions were made. Among them were the camera, the light and the radio. These all became a big part of our life today. The first part of the 20th century saw more great inventions; the helicopter in 1907, movies with sound in 1923, the computer in 1927, and jet planes in 1930. This was also a time when a new material was first made. Nylon (尼龙) came in 1937. It changed the kind of clothes people wear. By this time most people had a very good life, and man has an aspiration to explore again. The world was known to man but the stars were not. Man began looking for ways to go into space. Russia made the first step. Then the United States took a step. Since then other countries, including China and Japan, have made their steps into space. New inventions will someday allow us to do things we have never yet dreamed of. 12. From the passage, we can learn that ________. A. the camera is still a big part of our life today B. the US is the first country that went into space C. America, Russia, Japan and China began to explore the stars before 1969 D. in the early 1800s people began to explore the unknown land to make life better 13. Nylon came out nearly at the closest time as________. A. radio B. camera C. jet planes D. movies 14. The underlined word “aspiration” means “________”. A. good way B. new invention C. strong wish D. wonderful idea 15. Which is the best title for the passage? A. Why Cars Were Very Important? B. When the Light Was Invented? C. Which Country Made the First Step Into Space? D. How Inventions Influenced People’s Life? 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要列举了一些重要的发明以及发明是如何改变人类生活的。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Among them were the camera, the light and the radio. These all became a big part of our life today.(其中包括照相机、电灯和收音机。这些都成为了我们今天生活的重要组成部分)”可知，照相机今天仍然是我们生活中很重要的一部分。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The first part of the 20th century saw more great inventions; the helicopter in 1907, movies with sound in 1923, the computer in 1927, and jet planes in 1930. This was also a time when a new material was first made. Nylon(尼龙) came in 1937.(20世纪上半叶出现了更多伟大的发明；1907年是直升机，1923年是有声电影，1927年是电脑，1930年是喷气式飞机。这也是一种新材料首次被制造出来的时期。尼龙于1937年问世)”可知，尼龙几乎是在最接近喷气式飞机的时候出现的。故选C。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段“The world was known to man but the stars were not. Man began looking for ways to go into space. Russia made the first step. Then the United States took a step. Since then other countries, including China and Japan, have made their steps into space.(人类了解世界，但不了解星星。人类开始寻找进入太空的方法。俄罗斯迈出了第一步。然后美国迈出了一步。从那以后，包括中国和日本在内的其他国家也开始进入太空)”可知，人类开始进入太空，说明人类有再次探索的强烈的愿望。故划线词意思是“强烈的愿望”。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“There have been many great inventions that changed the way we live.(有许多伟大的发明改变了我们的生活方式)”以及最后一段“New inventions will someday allow us to do things we have never yet dreamed of.(新发明总有一天会让我们做我们从未梦想过的事情)”结合文章主要列举了一些重要的发明以及发明是如何改变人类生活的。由此可知，D选项“发明如何影响人们的生活？”最符合文章标题。故选D。 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。 Plastic bottle is one of the daily wastes.Billions of plastic water bottles are thrown away every year,polluting land and waterways around the world.___16___And this is causing a series of troubles around the world.Recently,scientists and product designers in the UK have found a possible solution.

Right now,people can make only a few thousand of such bottles a day. G. According to him,the membrane can contain water or other kinds of liquid 【答案】16. A 17. D 18. G 19. B 20. F 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一款新型的可食用水瓶。 【16题详解】 上文Billions of plastic water bottles are thrown away every year, polluting land and waterways around the world.（每年有数十亿个塑料水瓶被扔掉，污染了世界各地的土地和水道）说明了塑料瓶对环境的危害，该空承接上文，进一步说明塑料水瓶对环境的危害，A选项“典型的塑料水瓶需要数百年才能降解”切题，同时与下文And this is causing a series of troubles around the world.（这在世界各地造成了一系列麻烦）衔接紧密，是该空所造成的一种结果。选项中的water bottle对应上文中的water bottles，故选A。 【17题详解】 根据下文They look more like bubbles, or small, round, clear balls.（它们看起来更像泡泡，或者小而圆，透明的球）可知此处在介绍可食用水瓶的形状。该空引出下文，说明可食用水瓶的外观，D选项“与塑料瓶不同，新发明的瓶子既不高也不硬”切题，故选D。 【18题详解】 根据上文A member of the team explains that the outside, or the membrane of this bottle is made of the brown seaweed, a plant that grows in the ocean（研究小组的一名成员解释说，瓶子的外部或薄膜是由一种生长在海洋中的植物——褐藻制成的）可知此处主要在介绍可食用水瓶外部薄膜的特点。该空承接上文，G选项“根据他的说法，这种膜可以包含水或其他种类的液体”切题，选项中的the membrane与上文中的 the membrane相呼应，故选G。 【19题详解】 根据下文It cannot be refilled, and each bottle is quite small. What's more, they can store liquid for only a few days.（不能重新装水，而且每个瓶子都很小。更重要的是，它们只能储存液体几天）可知这里说明了这种可食用水瓶的局限性。该空引出下文，B选项“但这种新瓶装水也有其局限”切题，故选B。 【20题详解】 根据下文But the number will soon increase to hundreds of thousands with the development of new technology.（但是随着新技术的发展，这个数字将很快增加到数十万）可知随着新技术的发展，生产数量将会很快地增加。同时由连词But可推测出，此处在介绍目前这种可食用水瓶的生产量较低。该空引出下文，F选项“现在，人们一天只能生产几千瓶这样的瓶子”切题，故选F。 第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 When it comes to her passion for travel, Luisa Yu doesn’t take “no” for an answer.

Whether it was my classmates, teachers, or family members, I went out of my way to make them happy. I would agree to do things I didn’t really want to do, like lending my favorite books that I was still reading to classmates who asked, or sacrificing my own study time to help others with their homework. One day, my classmate Lily asked me to help her with a difficult math project. The project was due in a week, and it was going to take up a lot of my time. I had my own study plans and a big English test was around the corner, but I couldn’t bring myself to say no. So, I started spending hours every day helping Lily. We worked on the math problems, did research, and prepared the presentation together. As the days passed, I was getting more and more stressed. I was constantly tired from staying up late to study for my English test after helping Lily. On the day of the English test, I was so sleepy and unfocused that I made a lot of silly mistakes. When the results came out, I got a much lower grade than I had expected. I was devastated (崩溃的). Lily, on the other hand, got a great grade on the math project and was very happy. She thanked me, but I didn’t feel the slightest bit of joy. Instead, I felt a sense of resentment (怨恨) building up inside me. I realized that I had put my own needs aside for so long to please others, and it had finally had a negative effect on me. That evening, I sat in my room, thinking about what had happened. I was tired of always being the one to give in and sacrifice for others. I decided that things had to change. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸相应位置作答。 The next day at school, another classmate, Tom, came to me with a request. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After firmly saying no to Tom, I felt a strange mix of nervousness and relief. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1: The next day at school, another classmate, Tom, came to me with a request. He wanted me to join his group for a history project, which would require a significant amount of my free time. Just a few days ago, I would have immediately said yes without hesitation. But this time, looking at Tom’s expectant face, I summoned up my courage and said, “Tom, I really appreciate you asking me, but I have my own study schedule and personal things to take care of. I’m afraid I can’t join your group.” Tom looked a bit surprised. He tried to persuade me, saying that my ideas would be really helpful for the project. However, I stood my ground and politely declined again. Paragraph 2: After firmly saying no to Tom, I felt a strange mix of nervousness and relief. I was nervous because I was worried that Tom might be angry with me or that other classmates would think I was selfish. But at the same time, there was a huge sense of relief. I realized that it was okay to prioritize my own needs. To my surprise, a few days later, Tom came to me again. He said that although he was a bit disappointed at first, he understood my decision. He even thanked me for being honest with him. From then on, I continued to be true to myself. I still helped others when I could, but I no longer over-committed. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，本文讲述的是作者之前一直是一个喜欢让别人开心的人，尽管自己不愿意，也会答应别人的请求，这种取悦别人的行为给作者带来了很大的困扰。最终作者决定改变自己，重新做回自己。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第二天在学校，另一个同学Tom向我提出了一个要求。”可知，第一段可描写Tom向作者寻求帮助，作者因前一天拒绝Lily的求助已想好要拒绝Tom的请求，写作者拒绝Tom的请求，并说服Tom的理由。 ②由第二段首句内容“在坚定地拒绝了汤姆之后，我感到一种奇怪的既紧张又宽慰的感觉。”可知，第二段可描写作者在拒绝别人之后的感觉以及作者的醒悟：应该把自己放在第一位。 2.续写线索：Tom寻求帮助——作者拒绝——Tom说服作者，遭受再次拒绝——作者感到紧张和宽慰——要优先考虑自己——Tom理解我——作者做真实的自己 3.词汇激活 行为类 ① 需要：require/need/call for ② 意识到：realize/be aware of/be conscious of ③ 理解：understood/comprehended 情绪类 ① 感激：appreciate/be thankful to/show gratitude to ② 吃惊：surprise/astonishment/amazement 【点睛】[高分句型1].

B When Param Jaggi was five years old, he had a passion to take things apart to see what was inside. He started with toys and even broke a computer, which made his parents not too pleased. As he got older, he shifted from breaking things to building things, which greatly comforted his parents. In middle school. he started working on projects in his kitchen laboratory, and his first project was making biofuels. Although Jaggi’s parents initially thought his experiments were just. a boyhood fancy, he remained determined to make a difference to the environment. Eventually, his parents came around and started supporting his dreams. Jaggi’s interest continued as he grew up, but he focused more on solving real problems, especially those related to the environment. At 17, Jaggi went beyond his school projects and. co-founded Ecoviate, a company that uses technology to solve everyday energy and environmental problems. He planned to transform people’s idea that going green is expensive, by making available a series of affordable products that are easy to use. Through Ecoviate, he designed products that could contribute to a greener future. One of his notable inventions was the “CO2ube”, a device that could be attached to vehicle tailpipes to reduce carbon emissions, and it’s available to many people at low prices. He also created a smartwatch that changed body heat into energy, which can be used to power up the watch as well as mobile phones. Young Jaggi, now a third-grade college student studying engineering and economics, has become a famous eco-innovator and his company is developing promisingly. However, Jaggi’s vision to save the environment goes beyond creating products. He plans to launch an online platform through Ecoviate, which will encourage young students interested in science and technology to get actively involved in innovation and invention.

C MySpace, the social networking website, is different from other websites which only provide stories about other people. MySpace is a place that allows you to broadcast your own stories and personal information to as many people as you like. Founded in 2003, it is a big source of information for and about American kids. Teenagers and their parents feel very differently about it. Teens are rushing to join the site, not sharing their parents’ worries. It signals yet another generation gap in the digital era. For teenagers, it is reliable network to keep in touch with their friends. They will often list their surnames, birthdays, after-school jobs, school clubs, hobbies and other personal information. “MySpace is an easy way to reach just about everyone. I don’t have all the phone numbers of my acquaintances. But if I want to get in touch with one of them, I could just leave them a message on MySpace,” said Abby Van Wassen. She is a 16-year-old student at Woodland Hills High of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Parents on the other hand, are seriously concerned about the security problems of MySpace. “Every time we hold a parents meeting, the first question is always about MySpace,” said Kent Gates, who travels the country doing Internet safety seminars (研讨会). The National Centre for Missing and Exploited Children has received at least 288 MySpace-related complaints, according to Mary Beth Buchanan, a lawyer in Pittsburgh. “Your profile on MySpace shows all your personal information to anyone on the Web. And MySpace even lists this information by birthplace and age. It’s like a free checklist for troublemakers and it endangers children,” Buchanan said. 8. From the passage, we can learn that MySpace _________. A. is popular with parents B. is very careful about people’s privacy C. encourages you to list your personal information D. lists the telephone numbers of your friends 9. What can we infer from the sentence “Every time we hold a parents meeting, the first question is always about MySpace”? A. MySpace has become a top issue troubling parents. B. MySpace often holds parents meetings. C. MySpace is quite popular with parents. D. Parents have lots of questions about the website. 10. The writer’s attitude towards MySpace is _________. A. negative B. positive C. optimistic D. objective 11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Internet Safety B. The Digital Era C. Generation Gap D. MySpace D There have been many great inventions that changed the way we live. The first great invention was one that is still very important today-the wheel. This made it easier to carry heavy things. Then in the early 1800s the world started to change There was little unknown land left in the world. People didn’t have to explore much anymore. They began to work to make life better. In the second half of the 19th century, many great inventions were made. Among them were the camera, the light and the radio. These all became a big part of our life today. The first part of the 20th century saw more great inventions; the helicopter in 1907, movies with sound in 1923, the computer in 1927, and jet planes in 1930. This was also a time when a new material was first made. Nylon (尼龙) came in 1937. It changed the kind of clothes people wear. By this time most people had a very good life, and man has an aspiration to explore again. The world was known to man but the stars were not. Man began looking for ways to go into space. Russia made the first step. Then the United States took a step. Since then other countries, including China and Japan, have made their steps into space. New inventions will someday allow us to do things we have never yet dreamed of. 12. From the passage, we can learn that ________. A. the camera is still a big part of our life today B. the US is the first country that went into space C. America, Russia, Japan and China began to explore the stars before 1969 D in the early 1800s people began to explore the unknown land to make life better 13. Nylon came out nearly at the closest time as________. A. radio B. camera C. jet planes D. movies 14. The underlined word “aspiration” means “________”.

Whether it was my classmates, teachers, or family members, I went out of my way to make them happy. I would agree to do things I didn’t really want to do, like lending my favorite books that I was still reading to classmates who asked, or sacrificing my own study time to help others with their homework. One day, my classmate Lily asked me to help her with a difficult math project. The project was due in a week, and it was going to take up a lot of my time. I had my own study plans and a big English test was around the corner, but I couldn’t bring myself to say no. So, I started spending hours every day helping Lily. We worked on the math problems, did research, and prepared the presentation together. As the days passed, I was getting more and more stressed. I was constantly tired from staying up late to study for my English test after helping Lily. On the day of the English test, I was so sleepy and unfocused that I made a lot of silly mistakes. When the results came out, I got a much lower grade than I had expected. I was devastated (崩溃的). Lily, on the other hand, got a great grade on the math project and was very happy. She thanked me, but I didn’t feel the slightest bit of joy. Instead, I felt a sense of resentment (怨恨) building up inside me. I realized that I had put my own needs aside for so long to please others, and it had finally had a negative effect on me. That evening, I sat in my room, thinking about what had happened. I was tired of always being the one to give in and sacrifice for others. I decided that things had to change. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸相应位置作答。 The next day at school, another classmate, Tom, came to me with a request. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After firmly saying no to Tom, I felt a strange mix of nervousness and relief. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
