Shortly after Gustav Klimt, a renowned Austrian symbolist painter, died in 1918, a photograph was taken in the artist’s studio. It shows two paintings, each displayed on an easel: Lady with Fan and the unfinished work The Bride.
Lady with Fan was the last painting Klimt worked on during the year 1917. While most of his portraits paint society ladies, Klimt probably chose an unknown model here. In the appealing presentation of this unidentified woman, probably a dancer, she appears self-confident and assured. With her head held high, her shoulders exposed, and her bare breast covered by a fan, she gazes out beyond the viewer.
Klimt began studying East-Asian art as early as the 1890s. Initially, he was primarily interested in Japanese art, but in later years turned to Chinese, Korean, Persian, or Indian creative styles. Klimt adopted not only decorative elements from the art of these countries but also compositional aspects. He studied typical color schemes, for example, and transferred them into his paintings.
Lady with Fan was especially influenced by Chinese and Japanese art. Wrapped in a Chinese robe, the lady hides behind a decorated fan. The yellow wallpaper in the background features several characteristic patterns that are symbols of good fortune in East-Asian art: the Chinese phoenix(fenghuang), a crane, and the lotus flower. Another reference to Japanese painting is the lady with a fan herself: bijin-ga, Japanese woodblock portraits of beautiful celebrities.
Like Schiele, Kokoschka, and other artists from his circle, Klimt was a member of the Vienna Institute for Cultural Research. Founded in 1915, the institution advocated a peaceful, equal world culture and rejected the idea of the cultural superiority of the West, a concept widespread at the time. Klimt’s paintings convey his belief: European and Asian pictorial traditions are brought together in equal measure to form a harmonious symbiosis(共生).
4. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A. Details of Lady with Fan. B. Appearance of the painter.
C. Recommendation of a model. D. Comparison of two styles.
5. What can we infer about Gustav Klimt according to the passage?
A. Lady with Fan was his greatest work.
B. He showed little interest in western art.
C. He was familiar with East-Asian cultural elements.
D He applied various techniques of western art to all his works.
6. What message do Gustav Klimt’s paintings convey?
A. Promoting modern art. B. Protecting western cultures.
C. Strengthening social bonds. D. Appealing for culture equality.
7. Where is this passage most likely from?
A. An art journal. B. A science magazine.
C. A news report. D. A travel guide.
C
Heidi Tai, co-founder of Tangaroa Blue Foundation , an organization committed to beach cleaning , was puzzled when she and her teammates started finding strange tire shaped capsules washed ashore along the Cape York coast, near Australia’s northeastern tip. But Tait eventually connected with Satlink- a Spanish satellite communications company. Satlink’s GPS-enabled buoys (浮标), the ones the beach cleaners Kept finding, help commercial fishers track their nets, lines etc. Tait had a brainwave that would see the buoys not just recycled but reused.
For more than a decade, boat crews working farther west, in Australia’s Gulf of Carpentaria, had been telling Tait about how abandoned fishing nets were circling the gulf, hurting sea creatures. These so-called ghost (幽灵) nets had either broken free from commercial fishing boats and gotten lost, or were cut loose by fishers after getting caught on rocks. Weighing a few tonnes each, the nets that boat crews had chanced upon in the gulf were often too big for them to pull out of the water. They’d typically report the finds to the authorities, but by the time anyone with an appropriately equipped boat could head out to get one, the mass of messy rope had often gone from sight.
However, once one of the GPS-enabled buoys is attached, it sends its location every few hours to a website, which lets Tangaroa Blue Foundation monitor the nets’ movements and warns the organization of danger. So far, the reused GPS trackers have helped Tangaroa Blue Foundation recover three ghost nets from Australian waters.
Tangaroa Blue Foundation’s idea to track ghost nets isn’t entirely new; researchers with the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), Australia’s national science agency suggested it a decade ago. Taking the idea on board, the authorities tried using battery-powered trackers to monitor a few ghost nets. Tangaroa Blue Foundation’s approach differs in that its recycled buoys are solar-powered and require less upkeep.
8. What were the tire-shaped capsules originally used for?
A. Removing beach waste. B. Recycling vehicle tires.
C. Locating fishing equipment. D. Strengthening satellite signals.
9. What does the author intend to do in paragrap2?
A. Illustrate a future possibility. B. Describe a technical process.
C. Present a practical solution. D. Frame a problem context.
10. How do Tangaroa Blue Foundation’s buoys outperform (胜过) earlier trackers?
A. They need less maintenance. B. They monitor broader regions.
C. They receive government funding. D. They provide precise tracking data.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. Turning Waste into Treasure: A Solution to Ghost Nets
B. Fighting Threats: The Hidden Harm of Ghost Nets
C. Financing Change: Innovative Ocean Cleanup Plans
D. Protecting Seas from Waste: An Activist of Conservation
D
If you ever feel that the world is against you, you are not alone. We all have a tendency to assume that when anything goes wrong, the fault lies in some great intrigue (诡计) against us. If a co-worker fails the deadline, he must be trying to beat you to a promotion. When Wi-Fi in a coffee shop is not working, the staff must be lying about having it just to attract you in.
But the fact is that the simple explanations, which we tend to jump to, are barely true. Maybe your co-worker thought today was Tuesday, not Wednesday. Maybe the Wi-Fi just went wrong. This is where Hanlon’s razor works — a useful mental model that one should never consider what can be fully explained by neglect (疏忽) as doing harm on purpose.
Applying Hanlon’s razor, a helpful tool for rapid decision-making and comprehension, in our daily lives makes us less judgmental, and improve our reasoning skills. Meanwhile, Hanlon’s razor allows us to have more empathy (同理心) and teaches us not to assume the worst intention in the actions of others, the value of which is most pronounced in relationships, business matters, and personal happiness.
We all lead complex lives where things are constantly going wrong. When this occurs, a common response is to blame the nearest person and assume they have bad intention. When someone messes up around us, we forget how many times we, too, have done the same. Instead, we regard the perpetrator as a source of intense annoyance.
To assume intention in such a situation is likely to worsen the problem. None of us can ever know what someone else wants. Inability or neglect is far more likely to be the genuine cause than the desire to hurt. When a situation annoys us, it can be valuable to consider if those emotions are necessary. Often, the best way to react to other people causing us problems is by seeking to communicate with them, not to dismiss them. In this way, we can avoid repeats of the same situation.
12. What can we learn about Hanlon’s Razor?
A. It is a way to solve colleagues’ problems. B. It avoids taking neglect as intentional harm.
C. It is a device for restoring Wi-Fi connection. D. It identifies who is responsible for mistakes.
13. What do we usually do when things fail?
A. We turn to trustworthy persons. B. We change current situations.
C. We deal with negative emotions. D. We misjudge others’ intention.
14. What does the underlined “the perpetrator” in paragraph 4 refer to?
A. The mind reader. B. The error maker.
C. The problem solver. D. The event planner.
15. What is suggested when others cause problems?
A. Losing temper to them. B. Putting them on the spot.
C. Exchanging ideas with them. D. Turning a blind eye to them.

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。
It took a day’s drive but distance was beside the point. I always enjoyed long journeys in my father’s car with my family. However, things went different that time. We were moving to a new town, not for any tourist destination, but to settle down, for my father had a new job there. My mother, sitting on the passenger seat in the front, was talking with my father. She looked excited for the coming new life. But I was down, feeling nervous about starting a new school life. Entering a new school meant adapting to a completely different environment and meeting new classmates and teachers, which I was not good at.
On my first day at the new school, I felt lost and out of place. The students already knew each other well, and they chatted happily during breaks. I missed my old friends terribly and wished I could go back to my old school. Feeling lonely. I often spent time alone during breaks and after classes, reading books in the library or drawing pictures in the art room. I missed the good days I had with my old friends and longed for that sense of belonging.
As the days went by, I still found it hard to fit in. I was shy and found it difficult to strike up conversations with my classmates. Some of the kids in my class noticed my discomfort and tried to be friendly, but I couldn’t shake off the feeling of being an outsider. I only had words with my desk mate, Alex, when necessary. Things took a turn for the worse when I knocked off Alex’s water bottle by accident, although I picked up the bottle immediately and apologized to him. He got mad at me and seemed not to forgive me. Soon I found we were avoiding each other.
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.
However, I was assigned to pair up with Alex to design a poster.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Alex proudly introduced that the fantastic picture was drawn by me.

Shortly after Gustav Klimt, a renowned Austrian symbolist painter, died in 1918, a photograph was taken in the artist’s studio. It shows two paintings, each displayed on an easel: Lady with Fan and the unfinished work The Bride.
Lady with Fan was the last painting Klimt worked on during the year 1917. While most of his portraits paint society ladies, Klimt probably chose an unknown model here. In the appealing presentation of this unidentified woman, probably a dancer, she appears self-confident and assured. With her head held high, her shoulders exposed, and her bare breast covered by a fan, she gazes out beyond the viewer.
Klimt began studying East-Asian art as early as the 1890s. Initially, he was primarily interested in Japanese art, but in later years turned to Chinese, Korean, Persian, or Indian creative styles. Klimt adopted not only decorative elements from the art of these countries but also compositional aspects. He studied typical color schemes, for example, and transferred them into his paintings.
Lady with Fan was especially influenced by Chinese and Japanese art. Wrapped in a Chinese robe, the lady hides behind a decorated fan. The yellow wallpaper in the background features several characteristic patterns that are symbols of good fortune in East-Asian art: the Chinese phoenix(fenghuang), a crane, and the lotus flower. Another reference to Japanese painting is the lady with a fan herself: bijin-ga, Japanese woodblock portraits of beautiful celebrities.
Like Schiele, Kokoschka, and other artists from his circle, Klimt was a member of the Vienna Institute for Cultural Research. Founded in 1915, the institution advocated a peaceful, equal world culture and rejected the idea of the cultural superiority of the West, a concept widespread at the time. Klimt’s paintings convey his belief: European and Asian pictorial traditions are brought together in equal measure to form a harmonious symbiosis(共生).
4. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A. Details of Lady with Fan. B. Appearance of the painter.
C. Recommendation of a model. D. Comparison of two styles.
5. What can we infer about Gustav Klimt according to the passage?
A. Lady with Fan was his greatest work.
B. He showed little interest in western art.
C. He was familiar with East-Asian cultural elements.
D. He applied various techniques of western art to all his works.
6. What message do Gustav Klimt’s paintings convey?
A. Promoting modern art. B. Protecting western cultures.
C. Strengthening social bonds. D. Appealing for culture equality.
7. Where is this passage most likely from?
A. An art journal. B. A science magazine.
C. A news report. D. A travel guide.
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了奥地利象征主义画家Gustav Klimt的一幅画作《持扇女子》,包括其创作背景、画中人物的特点、Klimt对东亚艺术的研究与借鉴,以及该画作所体现的克里姆特的艺术理念和信仰。
【4题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“Lady with Fan was the last painting Klimt worked on during the year 1917. While most of his portraits paint society ladies, Klimt probably chose an unknown model here. In the appealing presentation of this unidentified woman, probably a dancer, she appears self-confident and assured. With her head held high, her shoulders exposed, and her bare breast covered by a fan, she gazes out beyond the viewer.(《持扇女子》是Klimt在1917年创作的最后一幅画。虽然他的大多数肖像画描绘的都是社会名媛,但在这幅画中,Klimt可能选择了一位不知名的模特。在对这位身份不明的女性(可能是一位舞者)的动人描绘中,她显得自信且笃定。她高昂着头,露出肩膀,裸露的胸部被一把扇子遮住,目光越过观者向外凝视。)”可知,该段先是指出《持扇女子》是Klimt 1917年创作的最后一幅画,接着提到画中模特可能是不知名的,然后具体描述了画中女子(可能是舞者)自信笃定的神态,以及她高昂着头、露出肩膀、用扇子遮住裸露胸部、目光越过观者的样子,这些都是关于《持扇女子》这幅画的细节。故选A。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Klimt began studying East-Asian art as early as the 1890s. Initially, he was primarily interested in Japanese art, but in later years turned to Chinese, Korean, Persian, or Indian creative styles. Klimt adopted not only decorative elements from the art of these countries but also compositional aspects. He studied typical color schemes, for example, and transferred them into his paintings.(Klimt早在19世纪90年代就开始研究东亚艺术。起初,他主要对日本艺术感兴趣,但在后来的岁月里,他转向了中国、韩国、波斯或印度的创作风格。Klimt不仅借鉴了这些国家艺术中的装饰元素,还吸收了构图方面的特点。例如,他研究了典型的配色方案,并将其运用到自己的画作中。)”以及第四段“Lady with Fan was especially influenced by Chinese and Japanese art. Wrapped in a Chinese robe, the lady hides behind a decorated fan. The yellow wallpaper in the background features several characteristic patterns that are symbols of good fortune in East-Asian art: the Chinese phoenix(fenghuang), a crane, and the lotus flower.(《持扇女子》尤其受到中国和日本艺术的影响。画中的女士身着一件中国长袍,躲在一把装饰精美的扇子后面。背景中黄色的壁纸带有几种具有代表性的图案,这些图案在东亚艺术中是吉祥的象征:中国的凤凰、一只仙鹤和莲花。)”可知,Klimt早在19世纪90年代就开始研究东亚艺术,不仅借鉴了这些国家艺术的装饰元素和构图方面,而且《持扇女子》这幅画也体现了他对中国和日本文化元素的运用,所以可以推断出他熟悉东亚文化元素。故选C。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Founded in 1915, the institution advocated a peaceful, equal world culture and rejected the idea of the cultural superiority of the West, a concept widespread at the time. Klimt’s paintings convey his belief: European and Asian pictorial traditions are brought together in equal measure to form a harmonious symbiosis(共生).(该学会成立于1915年,倡导一个和平、平等的世界文化,反对当时普遍存在的西方文化优越论。Klimt的画作传达了他的信念:欧洲和亚洲的绘画传统以平等的方式融合在一起,形成了一种和谐的共生关系。)”及本段其他内容可知,维也纳文化研究学会倡导和平、平等的世界文化,反对当时盛行的西方文化优越论,而Klimt是该学会成员,他的画作传达了他的信念,即欧洲和亚洲的绘画传统以平等的方式融合在一起,形成和谐共生关系。这表明他的画作传达了呼吁文化平等的信息。故选D。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章内容可知,文章主要围绕奥地利象征主义画家Gustav Klimt及其画作《持扇女子》展开,介绍了这幅画的创作背景、特点,Gustav Klimt对东亚艺术的研究和借鉴,以及他的画作所传达的文化理念等内容,这些都与艺术领域相关,文章内容符合艺术期刊的范畴。由此可知,这篇文章最有可能出自一本艺术期刊。故选A。

Heidi Tai co-founder of Tangaroa Blue Foundation , an organization committed to beach cleaning , was puzzled when she and her teammates started finding strange tire shaped capsules washed ashore along the Cape York coast, near Australia’s northeastern tip. But Tait eventually connected with Satlink- a Spanish satellite communications company. Satlink’s GPS-enabled buoys (浮标), the ones the beach cleaners Kept finding, help commercial fishers track their nets, lines etc. Tait had a brainwave that would see the buoys not just recycled but reused.
For more than a decade, boat crews working farther west, in Australia’s Gulf of Carpentaria, had been telling Tait about how abandoned fishing nets were circling the gulf, hurting sea creatures. These so-called ghost (幽灵) nets had either broken free from commercial fishing boats and gotten lost, or were cut loose by fishers after getting caught on rocks. Weighing a few tonnes each, the nets that boat crews had chanced upon in the gulf were often too big for them to pull out of the water. They’d typically report the finds to the authorities, but by the time anyone with an appropriately equipped boat could head out to get one, the mass of messy rope had often gone from sight.
However, once one of the GPS-enabled buoys is attached, it sends its location every few hours to a website, which lets Tangaroa Blue Foundation monitor the nets’ movements and warns the organization of danger. So far, the reused GPS trackers have helped Tangaroa Blue Foundation recover three ghost nets from Australian waters.
Tangaroa Blue Foundation’s idea to track ghost nets isn’t entirely new; researchers with the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), Australia’s national science agency suggested it a decade ago. Taking the idea on board, the authorities tried using battery-powered trackers to monitor a few ghost nets. Tangaroa Blue Foundation’s approach differs in that its recycled buoys are solar-powered and require less upkeep.
8. What were the tire-shaped capsules originally used for?
A. Removing beach waste. B. Recycling vehicle tires.
C. Locating fishing equipment. D. Strengthening satellite signals.
9. What does the author intend to do in paragrap2?
A. Illustrate a future possibility. B. Describe a technical process.
C. Present a practical solution. D. Frame a problem context.
10. How do Tangaroa Blue Foundation’s buoys outperform (胜过) earlier trackers?
A. They need less maintenance. B. They monitor broader regions.
C. They receive government funding. D. They provide precise tracking data.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. Turning Waste into Treasure: A Solution to Ghost Nets
B. Fighting Threats: The Hidden Harm of Ghost Nets
C. Financing Change: Innovative Ocean Cleanup Plans
D. Protecting Seas from Waste: An Activist of Conservation
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了Tangaroa Blue Foundation如何利用回收的CPS浮标来追踪和清理幽灵网,以保护海洋环境。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的句子“Heidi Tai, co-founder of Tangaroa Blue Foundation , an organization committed to beach cleaning , was puzzled when she and her teammates started finding strange tire shaped capsules washed ashore along the Cape York coast, near Australia’s northeastern tip. But Tait eventually connected with Satlink- a Spanish satellite communications company. Satlink’s GPS-enabled buoys (浮标), the ones the beach cleaners Kept finding, help commercial fishers track their nets, lines etc.(致力于海滩清洁的组织Tangaroa Blue Foundation的联合创始人海蒂·泰(Heidi Tai)和她的队友们开始在澳大利亚东北角附近的约克角海岸发现被冲上岸的奇怪的轮胎形状的胶囊,她感到很困惑。但泰特最终与西班牙卫星通信公司Satlink取得了联系。Satlink公司的GPS浮标,也就是海滩清洁工不断发现的浮标,可以帮助商业渔民追踪他们的渔网和渔线等。)”可知,这些轮胎形状的胶囊最初是用于帮助商业渔民追踪他们的渔网、渔线等设备的。故选C项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段中的句子“For more than a decade, boat crews working farther west, in Australia’s Gulf of Carpentaria, had been telling Tait about how abandoned fishing nets were circling the gulf, hurting sea creatures. These so-called ghost (幽灵) nets had either broken free from commercial fishing boats and gotten lost, or were cut loose by fishers after getting caught on rocks. Weighing a few tonnes each, the nets that boat crews had chanced upon in the gulf were often too big for them to pull out of the water.(十多年来,在澳大利亚卡奔塔利亚湾向西工作的船员一直在告诉泰特,废弃的渔网是如何环绕海湾,伤害海洋生物的。这些所谓的“鬼网”不是从商业渔船上掉下来丢了,就是被渔民在岩石上卡住后剪掉了。渔船船员在海湾里偶然发现的渔网,每个都重达几吨,往往太大了,他们无法将其拉出水面。)”可知,作者在第二段中描述了幽灵网对海洋生物造成的威胁,以及渔民们在清理这些网时遇到的困难。这为提出解决方案提供了背景。故选D项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段中的句子“Tangaroa Blue’s approach differs in that its recycled buoys are solar powered and require less upkeep.(Tangaroa Blue的不同之处在于,它的回收浮标是太阳能供电的,需要的维护较少。)”可知,Tangaroa Blue Foundation的浮标是太阳能驱动的,需要的维护更少。故选A项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章的整体内容,特别是第一段“Heidi Tai, co-founder of Tangaroa Blue Foundation , an organization committed to beach cleaning , was puzzled when she and her teammates started finding strange tire shaped capsules washed ashore along the Cape York coast, near Australia’s northeastern tip.

D
If you ever feel that the world is against you, you are not alone. We all have a tendency to assume that when anything goes wrong, the fault lies in some great intrigue (诡计) against us. If a co-worker fails the deadline, he must be trying to beat you to a promotion. When Wi-Fi in a coffee shop is not working, the staff must be lying about having it just to attract you in.
But the fact is that the simple explanations, which we tend to jump to, are barely true. Maybe your co-worker thought today was Tuesday, not Wednesday. Maybe the Wi-Fi just went wrong. This is where Hanlon’s razor works — a useful mental model that one should never consider what can be fully explained by neglect (疏忽) as doing harm on purpose.
Applying Hanlon’s razor, a helpful tool for rapid decision-making and comprehension, in our daily lives makes us less judgmental, and improve our reasoning skills. Meanwhile, Hanlon’s razor allows us to have more empathy (同理心) and teaches us not to assume the worst intention in the actions of others, the value of which is most pronounced in relationships, business matters, and personal happiness.
We all lead complex lives where things are constantly going wrong. When this occurs, a common response is to blame the nearest person and assume they have bad intention. When someone messes up around us, we forget how many times we, too, have done the same. Instead, we regard the perpetrator as a source of intense annoyance.
To assume intention in such a situation is likely to worsen the problem. None of us can ever know what someone else wants. Inability or neglect is far more likely to be the genuine cause than the desire to hurt. When a situation annoys us, it can be valuable to consider if those emotions are necessary. Often, the best way to react to other people causing us problems is by seeking to communicate with them, not to dismiss them. In this way, we can avoid repeats of the same situation.
12. What can we learn about Hanlon’s Razor?
A. It is a way to solve colleagues’ problems. B. It avoids taking neglect as intentional harm.
C. It is a device for restoring Wi-Fi connection. D. It identifies who is responsible for mistakes.
13. What do we usually do when things fail?
A. We turn to trustworthy persons. B. We change current situations.
C. We deal with negative emotions. D. We misjudge others’ intention.
14. What does the underlined “the perpetrator” in paragraph 4 refer to?
A. The mind reader. B. The error maker.
C. The problem solver. D. The event planner.
15. What is suggested when others cause problems?
A. Losing temper to them. B. Putting them on the spot.
C. Exchanging ideas with them. D. Turning a blind eye to them.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了Hanlon’s Razor的概念、应用及其在改善人际关系和解决问题中的价值。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“This is where Hanlon’s razor works — a useful mental model that one should never consider what can be fully explained by neglect (疏忽) as doing harm on purpose.(这就是汉隆剃刀的作用所在——一种有用的思维模式,即人们绝不应该把那些可以完全由疏忽来解释的事情,当作是故意的伤害行为)”可知,汉隆剃刀避免把疏忽当作故意伤害。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“We all lead complex lives where things are constantly going wrong. When this occurs, a common response is to blame the nearest person and assume they have bad intention.(我们都过着复杂的生活,在这种生活中,事情总是不断地出问题。当这种情况发生时,一种常见的反应就是责怪离自己最近的人,并认为他们怀有不良意图)”可知,当事情失败时,我们通常会误判他人的意图。故选D。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段中“When someone messes up around us, we forget how many times we, too, have done the same. Instead, we regard the perpetrator as a source of intense annoyance.(当有人在我们周围把事情搞砸时,我们忘记了我们自己也有多少次做过同样的事情。相反,我们把the perpetrator视为极度烦恼的根源)”可知,the perpetrator指的是把事情搞砸的人,也就是“犯错的人”。故选B。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Often, the best way to react to other people causing us problems is by seeking to communicate with them, not to dismiss them.(通常,对其他人给我们造成的问题做出反应的最佳方式是寻求与他们沟通,而不是忽视他们)”可知,当别人造成问题时,建议与他们交流想法。故选C。

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。
It took a day’s drive, but distance was beside the point. I always enjoyed long journeys in my father’s car with my family. However, things went different that time. We were moving to a new town, not for any tourist destination, but to settle down, for my father had a new job there. My mother, sitting on the passenger seat in the front, was talking with my father. She looked excited for the coming new life. But I was down, feeling nervous about starting a new school life. Entering a new school meant adapting to a completely different environment and meeting new classmates and teachers, which I was not good at.
On my first day at the new school, I felt lost and out of place. The students already knew each other well, and they chatted happily during breaks. I missed my old friends terribly and wished I could go back to my old school. Feeling lonely. I often spent time alone during breaks and after classes, reading books in the library or drawing pictures in the art room. I missed the good days I had with my old friends and longed for that sense of belonging.
As the days went by, I still found it hard to fit in. I was shy and found it difficult to strike up conversations with my classmates. Some of the kids in my class noticed my discomfort and tried to be friendly, but I couldn’t shake off the feeling of being an outsider. I only had words with my desk mate, Alex, when necessary. Things took a turn for the worse when I knocked off Alex’s water bottle by accident, although I picked up the bottle immediately and apologized to him. He got mad at me and seemed not to forgive me. Soon I found we were avoiding each other.

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】However, I was assigned to pair up with Alex to design a poster. Reluctantly, we started working together. I was worried that working with Alex would be very difficult because of our previous relationship. But to my surprise, as the work progressed, we found that we shared many common interests. We put a lot of efforts into the drawings and texts, and finally we completed a quite outstanding poster. Alex seemed to forgive me. He appreciated my efforts and began to care about my feelings. The teacher highly praised our work and our classmates were amazed at the picture on the poster.
Alex proudly introduced that the fantastic picture was drawn by me. I smiled shyly but happily as my classmates crowned me and gave me a thumbs-up. Slowly but surely, I started feeling more comfortable in my new school. I made new friends, including Alex, and began to participate in activities in and after classes. By the end of the school year, I had fully adapted to the new environment. Moving to a new town was not only challenging, but it also opened up a world of opportunities and new experiences for me.
