“They tell me that you’d like to make a statue of me — is that correct, Miss Vinnie Ream?”
The deep, gentle voice helped calm the nervous girl. Asking a favor of the President of the United States was no casual matter, especially for a seventeen-year-old girl.
“Yes, sir,” she replied, her dark eyes meeting his. “I wouldn’t have dared to ask you, but my teacher, Mr. Mills, says I am ready. I plan to make it in an admirable manner.”
President Lincoln smiled. “Painters, sculptors-they’ve all tried to make the best of this ordinary face, but I’m afraid there’s not much hope. What did you have in mind, Miss Ream? A bust (半身像)?”
Before Vinnie could say yes, the President hurried on, a shade of apology in his voice.
“Of course — I shouldn’t have asked. A full-length pose would be much too big a project for a young woman your size.”
Vinnie’s face turned red. She realized she looked like a child, with her tiny figure. “Small does not mean weak, sir,” she defended herself. “I was born in the country of Wisconsin. I’ve driven teams of horses and carried water. Making a full-length clay figure would not exhaust my strength — and that is what I intend to do!”
The President’s eyes brightened at her show of spirit. “Sorry, madam, I have underestimated you as I didn’t know your background.”
But his smile faded as he rubbed his beard with bony fingers, in thought. “Miss Ream,” he sighed, “I’d like to let you do it, but as you know, we are in the middle of a war. How could I possibly take the time to pose for a sculpture now? I hardly have a minute to myself.”
Vinnie glanced around and noted the size of his office. “I work quickly,” she said. Her voice was soft but confident as she pointed to the corner near the windows. “If I were to bring my clay here and work for three hours every afternoon, I could complete most of the project while you are at your desk.”
The President seemed to consider her idea seriously. He got up and shook Vinnie’s hand warmly, “I’ve heard that you are a talented young woman, and I have found you charming and intelligent as well. I cannot make my decision immediately. but you will hear from me soon.”
The very next day, Vinnie received an invitation from the President.
4. How did President Lincoln first respond to Vinnie’s request?
A. Pleased. B. Thrilled. C. Regretful. D. Doubtful.
5. Vinnie confirmed her ability to make a full-length statue by highlighting ______.
A. her experience from other projects B. her innocent childhood in the country
C. the heavy labor she had done before D. the skill she picked up in Wisconsin
6. Vinnie wanted to choose the corner near the windows to ______.
A. achieve effects of natural lighting B. keep all her tools within easy reach
C. observe the President at a right angle D. avoid disturbing the president’s work
7. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?

B. Lincoln’s Hesitation: Balancing War and Art

Popularization has in some cases changed the original meaning of emotional intelligence. Many people now misunderstand emotional intelligence as almost everything desirable in a person’s makeup that cannot be measured by an IQ test, such as character, motivation, confidence, mental stability, optimism and “people skills.” Research has shown that emotional skills may contribute to some of these qualities, but most of them move far beyond skill-based emotional intelligence.
We prefer to describe emotional intelligence as a specific set of skills that can be used for either good or bad purposes. The ability to accurately understand how others are feeling may be used by a doctor to find how best to help her patients, while a cheater might use it to control potential victims. Being emotionally intelligent does not necessarily make one a moral person.
Although popular beliefs regarding emotional intelligence run far ahead of what research can reasonably support, the overall effects of the publicity have been more beneficial than harmful. The most positive aspect of this popularization is a new and much needed emphasis on emotion by employers, educators and others interested in promoting social well-being. The popularization of emotional intelligence has helped both the public and researchers re-evaluate the functionality of emotions and how they serve people expediently in everyday life.
Although the continuing popular appeal of emotional intelligence is desirable, we hope that such attention will excite a greater interest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion. It is our hope that in coming decades, advances in science will offer new perspectives from which to study how people manage their lives. Emotional intelligence, with its focus on both head and heart, may serve to point us in the right direction.
8. What is a common misunderstanding of emotional intelligence?
A. It can be measured by an IQ test. B. It helps to exercise a person’s mind.
C. It includes a set of emotional skills. D. It refers to a person’s positive qualities.
9. Why does the author mention “doctor” and “cheater” in paragraph 2?
A. To explain a rule. B. To clarify a concept. C. To present a fact. D. To make a prediction.
10. What does the underlined word “expediently” mean in paragraph 3?
A. Adaptively. B. Sincerely. C. Doubtfully. D. Terribly.
11. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning emotional intelligence?
A Its appeal to the public. B. Expectations for future studies.
C. Its practical application. D. Scientists with new perspectives.
D
Early fifth-century philosopher St.Augustine famously wrote that he knew what time was unless someone asked him.Albert Einstein added another wrinkle when he theorized that time varies depending on where you measure it.Today's state-of-the-art atomic(原子的) clocks have proven Einstein right.Even advanced physics can't decisively tell us what time is, because the answer depends on the question you're asking.
Forget about time as an absolute.What if,instead of considering time in terms of astronomy,we related time to ecology?What if we allowed environmental conditions to set the tempo(节奏) of human life?We're increasingly aware of the fact that we can't control Earth systems with engineering alone,and realizing that we need to moderate(调节)our actions if we hope to live in balance.What if our definition of time reflected that?
Recently,I conceptualized a new approach to timekeeping that's connected to circumstances on our planet,conditions that might change as a result of global warming.We're now building a clock at the Anchorage Museum that reflects the total flow of several major Alaskan rivers,which are sensitive to local and global environmental changes.We've programmed it to match an atomic clock if the waterways continue to flow at their present rate.If the rivers run faster in the future on average,the clock will get ahead of standard time.If they run slower,you'll see the opposite effect.
The clock registers both short-term irregularities and long-term trends in river dynamics.It's a sort of observatory that reveals how the rivers are behaving from their own temporal frame(时间框架),and allows us to witness those changes on our smartwatches or phones.Anyone who opts to go on Alaska Mean River Time will live in harmony with the planet.Anyone who considers river time in relation to atomic time will encounter a major imbalance and may be motivated to counteract it by consuming less fuel or supporting greener policies.
Even if this method of timekeeping is novel in its particulars,early agricultural societies also connected time to natural phenomena.In pre-Classical Greece,for instance,people“corrected”official calendars by shifting dates forward or backward to reflect the change of season.Temporal connection to the environment was vital to their survival.Likewise,river time and other timekeeping systems we're developing may encourage environmental awareness.
When St.Augustine admitted his inability to define time, he highlighted one of time 's most noticeable qualities:Time becomes meaningful only in a defined context.Any timekeeping system is valid,and each is as praiseworthy as its purpose.
12. What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?
A. Timekeeping is increasingly related to nature.
B. Everyone can define time on their own terms.
C. The qualities of time vary with how you measure it.
D. Time is a major concern of philosophers and scientists.
13. The author raises three questions in Paragraph 2 mainly to________.
A. present an assumption B. evaluate an argument
C. highlight an experiment D. introduce an approach
14. What can we learn from this passage?
A. Those who do not go on river time will live an imbalanced life.
B. New ways of measuring time can help to control Earth systems.
C. Atomic time will get ahead of river time if the rivers run slower.
D. Modern technology may help to shape the rivers’ temporal frame.
15. What can we infer from this passage?
A. It is crucial to improve the definition of time.
B. A fixed frame will make time meaningless.
C. We should live in harmony with nature.
D. History is a mirror reflecting reality.

One of my leachers once asked my class what our favorite memory was. My leacher asked for the moment in which “you fell the best; you fell that you had the world in the palms of your hand.” Some described amazing awards; other described winning a tournament. My answer, however, invited giggles and hesitant smiles. Why? Because I felt the best when I first learned how to ride my bike at thirteen. I didn’t mind my classmates’ stares and mockery, because I knew there was more to the story.
My elder sister and I shared a typical sisterly relationship: we couldn’t stand each other. I was an annoyance to her. Any sort of conversation we had usually ended up fighting. Gradually, I started to learn to be totally indifferent; perhaps the silent treatment would get more approval. I was wrong. We soon fell into a sad pattern. I avoided her, and she ignored me. Deep inside, it hurt. So that was how it was between us. She was only a sister in name. I truly believed that we would forever be apart, two housemates without conversation, two strangers without warmth.
I still remember the day I learned to ride a bike. I had received the bike that Christmas, which was great, until I realized that I had no idea how to ride it. My mom had long abandoned any attempt to teach me. I had proven to be a frustrating student. I took it upon myself to learn, a little bit each day. It was no different. I was coming to the end of my daily one-hour torture(折磨). I was so frustrated that I threw my bike aside and began to cry.
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。
Paragraph 1:
I guess that was what caused my sister to come outside.

“I made it,” I shouted with excitement.

“They tell me that you’d like to make a statue of me — is that correct Miss Vinnie Ream?”
The deep, gentle voice helped calm the nervous girl. Asking a favor of the President of the United States was no casual matter, especially for a seventeen-year-old girl.
“Yes, sir,” she replied, her dark eyes meeting his. “I wouldn’t have dared to ask you, but my teacher, Mr. Mills, says I am ready. I plan to make it in an admirable manner.”
President Lincoln smiled. “Painters, sculptors-they’ve all tried to make the best of this ordinary face, but I’m afraid there’s not much hope. What did you have in mind, Miss Ream? A bust (半身像)?”
Before Vinnie could say yes, the President hurried on, a shade of apology in his voice.
“Of course — I shouldn’t have asked. A full-length pose would be much too big a project for a young woman your size.”
Vinnie’s face turned red. She realized she looked like a child, with her tiny figure. “Small does not mean weak, sir,” she defended herself. “I was born in the country of Wisconsin. I’ve driven teams of horses and carried water. Making a full-length clay figure would not exhaust my strength — and that is what I intend to do!”
The President’s eyes brightened at her show of spirit. “Sorry, madam, I have underestimated you as I didn’t know your background.”
But his smile faded as he rubbed his beard with bony fingers, in thought. “Miss Ream,” he sighed, “I’d like to let you do it, but as you know, we are in the middle of a war. How could I possibly take the time to pose for a sculpture now? I hardly have a minute to myself.”
Vinnie glanced around and noted the size of his office. “I work quickly,” she said. Her voice was soft but confident as she pointed to the corner near the windows. “If I were to bring my clay here and work for three hours every afternoon, I could complete most of the project while you are at your desk.”
The President seemed to consider her idea seriously. He got up and shook Vinnie’s hand warmly, “I’ve heard that you are a talented young woman, and I have found you charming and intelligent as well. I cannot make my decision immediately. but you will hear from me soon.”
The very next day, Vinnie received an invitation from the President.
4. How did President Lincoln first respond to Vinnie’s request?
A. Pleased. B. Thrilled. C. Regretful. D. Doubtful.
5. Vinnie confirmed her ability to make a full-length statue by highlighting ______.
A. her experience from other projects B. her innocent childhood in the country
C. the heavy labor she had done before D. the skill she picked up in Wisconsin
6. Vinnie wanted to choose the corner near the windows to ______.
A. achieve effects of natural lighting B. keep all her tools within easy reach
C. observe the President at a right angle D. avoid disturbing the president’s work
7. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?
A. Young Artist’s Brave Request: Sculpting the President
B. Lincoln’s Hesitation: Balancing War and Art
C. Vinnie Ream: A Rising Star in Sculpture
D. An Artist’s Determination: A Full Statue in the Office
【答案】4. D 5. C 6. D 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一个名叫Vinnie Ream的年轻女孩请求为林肯总统制作雕像,并最终获得总统认可的故事。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“President Lincoln smiled. “Painters, sculptors-they’ve all tried to make the best of this ordinary face, but I’m afraid there’s not much hope. What did you have in mind, Miss Ream? A bust (半身像)?” (林肯总统笑了笑:“画家、雕塑家们都曾试图美化这张平凡的面孔,但恐怕希望不大。你有什么想法吗,Ream小姐?做一尊半身像?”)”以及第六段总统的话““Of course — I shouldn’t have asked. A full-length pose would be much too big a project for a young woman your size.” (当然——我不该这么问的。对像你这样身形的年轻女士来说,完成一个全身像的工程实在太浩大了。)”可知,林肯最初对Vinnie的请求表现出怀疑,觉得她作为年轻女性难以完成全身像雕塑。故选D。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第七段““Small does not mean weak, sir,” she defended herself. “I was born in the country of Wisconsin. I’ve driven teams of horses and carried water. Making a full-length clay figure would not exhaust my strength — and that is what I intend to do!” (“先生,‘小’并不意味着‘弱’,” 她为自己辩解道,“我出生在威斯康星州的乡下,赶过马队,也挑过水。做一尊全身泥塑不会耗尽我的力气——而这正是我打算做的!”)”可知,Vinnie通过强调自己曾做过赶马、挑水等重体力劳动,来证明自己有能力完成全身雕像。故选C。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章倒数第三段“Her voice was soft but confident as she pointed to the corner near the windows. “If I were to bring my clay here and work for three hours every afternoon, I could complete most of the project while you are at your desk.” (她指向窗边的角落,声音轻柔却带着自信:“如果我把黏土带到这里,每天下午工作三小时,就能在你办公的时候完成项目的大部分内容。”)”可知,她选择窗边角落是为了在总统办公时进行雕塑,避免打扰他的工作。故选D。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知,全文围绕 17 岁少女Vinnie向林肯总统请求为其创作全身雕像的经历展开,重点突出她的勇气与坚持。选项A“Young Artist’s Brave Request: Sculpting the President (年轻艺术家的勇敢请求:为总统塑像)”既涵盖了核心人物与事件,又体现了勇敢请求这一关键情节,符合文章脉络。故选A。
C
Popularization has in some cases changed the original meaning of emotional intelligence. Many people now misunderstand emotional intelligence as almost everything desirable in a person’s makeup that cannot be measured by an IQ test, such as character, motivation, confidence, mental stability, optimism and “people skills.” Research has shown that emotional skills may contribute to some of these qualities, but most of them move far beyond skill-based emotional intelligence.
We prefer to describe emotional intelligence as a specific set of skills that can be used for either good or bad purposes. The ability to accurately understand how others are feeling may be used by a doctor to find how best to help her patients, while a cheater might use it to control potential victims. Being emotionally intelligent does not necessarily make one a moral person.
Although popular beliefs regarding emotional intelligence run far ahead of what research can reasonably support, the overall effects of the publicity have been more beneficial than harmful. The most positive aspect of this popularization is a new and much needed emphasis on emotion by employers, educators and others interested in promoting social well-being. The popularization of emotional intelligence has helped both the public and researchers re-evaluate the functionality of emotions and how they serve people expediently in everyday life.
Although the continuing popular appeal of emotional intelligence is desirable, we hope that such attention will excite a greater interest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion. It is our hope that in coming decades, advances in science will offer new perspectives from which to study how people manage their lives. Emotional intelligence, with its focus on both head and heart, may serve to point us in the right direction.
8. What is a common misunderstanding of emotional intelligence?
A. It can be measured by an IQ test. B. It helps to exercise a person’s mind.
C. It includes a set of emotional skills. D. It refers to a person’s positive qualities.
9. Why does the author mention “doctor” and “cheater” in paragraph 2?
A. To explain a rule. B. To clarify a concept. C. To present a fact. D. To make a prediction.
10. What does the underlined word “expediently” mean in paragraph 3?
A. Adaptively. B. Sincerely. C. Doubtfully. D. Terribly.
11. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning emotional intelligence?
A. Its appeal to the public. B. Expectations for future studies.
C. Its practical application. D. Scientists with new perspectives.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章批判了公众对情商的过度泛化理解,澄清其本质为中性的技能工具,并肯定了情商普及的积极意义,呼吁未来科学研究应更深入探索情商。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Many people now misunderstand emotional intelligence as almost everything desirable in a person’s makeup that cannot be measured by an IQ test, such as character, motivation, confidence, mental stability, optimism and “people skills.” (如今许多人将情商误解为一个人所有无法通过智商测试衡量的理想特质,如性格、动机、自信、心理稳定性、乐观和“社交技能”)”可知,情商常常被误解为一个人的积极品质。故选D项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“The ability to accurately understand how others are feeling may be used by a doctor to find how best to help her patients, while a cheater might use it to control potential victims. Being emotionally intelligent does not necessarily make one a moral person. (能够准确理解他人感受的能力,既可以成为医生帮助患者的利器,也可能沦为骗子操控受害者的工具。拥有高情商,并不等同于拥有高尚品德)”可知,此处先提到医生和骗子可以用情商做截然不同的事,再提到高情商不等于道德高尚。因此,作者是通过对比案例,阐释“情商技能本身无道德属性”的概念。故选B项。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词的上文“The most positive aspect of this popularization is a new and much needed emphasis on emotion by employers, educators and others interested in promoting social well-being. The popularization of emotional intelligence has helped both the public and researchers re-evaluate the functionality of emotions and how they serve people expediently in everyday life.(这种宣传最积极的成效是:雇主、教育工作者以及其他关注社会福祉的人士开始重新重视情绪的作用,这种关注恰恰是我们最需要的。情商的普及有助于公众和研究人员重新评估情绪的功能以及它们在日常生活中如何expediently为人们服务)”可知,这里肯定了情绪的作用,是正面的内容,因此重新评估的另一点也有关情绪的益处,应该是灵活地为人们服务,画线词意为“权宜地”,与Adaptively“适应性地”意思相近。故选A项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段中“Although the continuing popular appeal of emotional intelligence is desirable, we hope that such attention will excite a greater interest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion. It is our hope that in coming decades, advances in science will offer new perspectives from which to study how people manage their lives. Emotional intelligence, with its focus on both head and heart, may serve to point us in the right direction. (尽管情商的持续流行备受期待,但我们更希望这种关注能激发学界对情绪科学研究的更大兴趣。我们期待未来数十年间,科学进步能为研究人类如何管理生活提供全新视角。情商既关注头脑也关注心灵,它可以为我们指明正确的方向)”可知,该段关注的是对未来情商研究的期望。故选B项。
D
Early fifth-century philosopher St.Augustine famously wrote that he knew what time was unless someone asked him.Albert Einstein added another wrinkle when he theorized that time varies depending on where you measure it.Today's state-of-the-art atomic(原子的) clocks have proven Einstein right.Even advanced physics can't decisively tell us what time is, because the answer depends on the question you're asking.
Forget about time as an absolute.What if,instead of considering time in terms of astronomy,we related time to ecology?What if we allowed environmental conditions to set the tempo(节奏) of human life?We're increasingly aware of the fact that we can't control Earth systems with engineering alone,and realizing that we need to moderate(调节)our actions if we hope to live in balance.What if our definition of time reflected that?
Recently,I conceptualized a new approach to timekeeping that's connected to circumstances on our planet,conditions that might change as a result of global warming.We're now building a clock at the Anchorage Museum that reflects the total flow of several major Alaskan rivers,which are sensitive to local and global environmental changes.We've programmed it to match an atomic clock if the waterways continue to flow at their present rate.If the rivers run faster in the future on average,the clock will get ahead of standard time.If they run slower,you'll see the opposite effect.
The clock registers both short-term irregularities and long-term trends in river dynamics.It's a sort of observatory that reveals how the rivers are behaving from their own temporal frame(时间框架),and allows us to witness those changes on our smartwatches or phones.Anyone who opts to go on Alaska Mean River Time will live in harmony with the planet.Anyone who considers river time in relation to atomic time will encounter a major imbalance and may be motivated to counteract it by consuming less fuel or supporting greener policies.
Even if this method of timekeeping is novel in its particulars,early agricultural societies also connected time to natural phenomena.In pre-Classical Greece,for instance,people“corrected”official calendars by shifting dates forward or backward to reflect the change of season.Temporal connection to the environment was vital to their survival.Likewise,river time and other timekeeping systems we're developing may encourage environmental awareness.
When St.Augustine admitted his inability to define time, he highlighted one of time 's most noticeable qualities:Time becomes meaningful only in a defined context.Any timekeeping system is valid,and each is as praiseworthy as its purpose.
12. What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?
A. Timekeeping is increasingly related to nature.
B. Everyone can define time on their own terms.
C. The qualities of time vary with how you measure it.
D. Time is a major concern of philosophers and scientists.
13. The author raises three questions in Paragraph 2 mainly to________.
A. present an assumption B. evaluate an argument
C. highlight an experiment D. introduce an approach
14. What can we learn from this passage?
A. Those who do not go on river time will live an imbalanced life.
B. New ways of measuring time can help to control Earth systems.
C. Atomic time will get ahead of river time if the rivers run slower.
D. Modern technology may help to shape the rivers’ temporal frame.
15. What can we infer from this passage?
A. It is crucial to improve the definition of time.
B A fixed frame will make time meaningless.
C. We should live in harmony with nature.
D. History is a mirror reflecting reality.
【答案】12 B 13. D 14. C 15. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是议论文。文章通过讨论时间的定义,讲述了人们应该和大自然和谐相处,保护环境。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段最后一句“Even advanced physics can't decisively tell us what time is, because the answer depends on the question you're asking.(即使是先进的物理学也不能决定性地告诉我们时间是什么,因为答案取决于你要问的问题)”以及上文列举的哲学家St.Augustine和爱因斯坦对于时间的定义可推断,第一段主要讲述每个人都可以用自己的话来定义时间。故选B项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的“We're increasingly aware of the fact that we can't control Earth systems with engineering alone,and realizing that we need to moderate(调节)our actions if we hope to live in balance.(我们越来越意识到,我们不能只是用工程学来控制地球系统,意识到,如果我们希望保持平衡,我们就需要调节我们的行动。)”进而提出问题“What if our definition of time reflected that?(如果时间的定义反映那些会怎么样呢)”,结合前两个问题“What if,instead of considering time in terms of astronomy, we related time to ecology?What if we allowed environmental conditions to set the tempo(节奏) of human life?(如果我们不考虑天文学方面的时间,而是将时间与生态学联系起来呢?如果我们允许环境条件来设定人类生活的节奏呢)”可推断,第二段提出的三个问题是为了介绍方法。故选D项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“We've programmed it to match an atomic clock if the waterways continue to flow at their present rate.If the rivers run faster in the future on average,the clock will get ahead of standard time.If they run slower,you'll see the opposite effect.(如果水道继续以目前的速度流动,我们对它进行了编程,匹配了一个原子时间。如果河流在未来的平均运行速度更快,时间就会超过标准时间。如果它们的运行速度较慢,你就会看到相反的效果。)”可知,如果河流运行速度得较慢,原子时间将超过河流时间。故选C项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的“We're increasingly aware of the fact that we can't control Earth systems with engineering alone,and realizing that we need to moderate(调节)our actions if we hope to live in balance.(我们越来越意识到,我们不能只是用工程学来控制地球系统,意识到,如果我们希望保持平衡,我们就需要调节我们的行动。)”和倒数第二段的“Temporal connection to the environment was vital to their survival.Likewise,river time and other timekeeping systems we're developing may encourage environmental awareness(时间与环境的暂时联系对它们的生存至关重要。同样,河流时间和我们正在开发的其他时间保护系统也可能会鼓励人们提高环境意识)”可推断,从这篇文章中我们知道我们应该与自然和谐共处,保护环境。故选C。

61. 她的手指轻轻地在琴键上起起落落。“现在公主出现了,她正在水边摘花。”随着Pasha舞动的手指,一曲欢快的乐曲在空中回荡。(汉译英)

【解析】
【详解】考查宾语从句、现在分词短语作状语及动词短语。句子描述个人坚定信念与观点,用一般现在时;表示“我坚信”应用I firmly believe that,其中firmly“坚定地”,为副词修饰动词believe“相信”,that our chance encounter was more than just a sign为宾语从句,作believe的宾语,其中chance encounter“偶然碰面”,为名词短语作从句主语,more than“不仅仅”,为固定短语;表示“更重要的是”应用More importantly,为副词短语作状语,修饰整个后续句子;表示“我认为这是一堂课,一个提醒”应用I see it as a lesson, a reminder,其中see...as...“把……视为……”为固定短语;表示“提醒我们永远不要与所爱的人失去联系”应用reminding us never to lose touch with those we love,其中reminding为现在分词,作伴随状语,表示“提醒”这一动作是伴随“see it as...”发生的,remind sb. to do sth.“提醒某人做某事”,为固定短语,lose touch with“与……失去联系”,为固定短语,those we love“我们所爱的人”,we love为定语从句修饰先行词those“那些人”,且省略了关系代词who/whom/that。故翻译为I firmly believe that our chance encounter is more than just a sign.

第二节 读后续写(满分25分)
63. 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。
One of my leachers once asked my class what our favorite memory was. My leacher asked for the moment in which “you fell the best; you fell that you had the world in the palms of your hand.” Some described amazing awards; other described winning a tournament. My answer, however, invited giggles and hesitant smiles. Why? Because I felt the best when I first learned how to ride my bike at thirteen. I didn’t mind my classmates’ stares and mockery, because I knew there was more to the story.
My elder sister and I shared a typical sisterly relationship: we couldn’t stand each other. I was an annoyance to her. Any sort of conversation we had usually ended up fighting. Gradually, I started to learn to be totally indifferent; perhaps the silent treatment would get more approval. I was wrong. We soon fell into a sad pattern. I avoided her, and she ignored me. Deep inside, it hurt. So that was how it was between us. She was only a sister in name. I truly believed that we would forever be apart, two housemates without conversation, two strangers without warmth.
I still remember the day I learned to ride a bike. I had received the bike that Christmas, which was great, until I realized that I had no idea how to ride it. My mom had long abandoned any attempt to teach me. I had proven to be a frustrating student. I took it upon myself to learn, a little bit each day. It was no different. I was coming to the end of my daily one-hour torture(折磨). I was so frustrated that I threw my bike aside and began to cry.
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。
Paragraph 1:
I guess that was what caused my sister to come outside.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
“I made it,” I shouted with excitement.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文:
I guess that was what my sister to come outside. At first, I was skeptical and tense, as I assumed that she would begin to tease me or at least burst out laughing. However, she did neither. I hunched my shoulders forward and turned my face away, tears trickling down my cheeks. She gently picked my bike up, uttering in a reassuring tone, “I can teach you how to ride.” Dumbstruck, I raised my head and stared at her in stunned silence. Next hours saw my sister steadily hold my bike when my feel faltered. She never once let me fall, patiently teaching me how to ride a bike.
“I made it,” I shouted with excitement. A ripple of happiness bubbled up in my heart. I turned around, beaming a warm smile at my sister. She gave me an approving nod, eyes gleaming with amusement. That was the day I had a taste of what real sisterly intimacy could be like. For three hours, three wonderful, blissful hours, we learned to ride a bike, which was the perfect harmony I had longed for. We still occasionally have our random spats and bitter rivalries, but since that day, it has been easier to get along because I know my sister will be there for me when I need her.
