Unlike Li Bai, this poet wrote in various styles, and his works were often innovative (创新的) in language and subject matter. His poems were also filled with meaning. His innovation was not at all welcome. The readers of his time rarely showed much appreciation of his original and innovative works. The masses in fact hated and scolded them. Like many artists, Du Fu was only recognised for his genius long after his death. Du Fu was born in Luoyang, Henan Province. Although he came from an influential literary family, his early attempts to gain a position in the government by way of the exam system failed repeatedly. He was 43 years old when he finally managed to hold an official position. This was the time when Emperor Xuanzong was attracted to the beautiful Yang Yuhuan and made her his concubine (妃子), which Du Fu severely criticised in his Song of the Beautiful Ladies. As the emperor got distracted from important government affairs, some military leaders were becoming too powerful. Du Fu took office in 755, and in the same year a rebel(叛乱) leader An Lushan led his army into the capital of Tang Dynasty. The emperor fled to the west and left the governing of the state to his son. Du Fu and his family took the road north to escape the rebels. The poet left his family and tried to get to the headquarters of the new emperor, but he was caught and held prisoner by the rebels in Chang’an. After order was restored again, Du Fu got back his position in the capital. However, he did not enjoy the favour of the new emperor and was given a minor provincial post. In 759 he finally left this disgraceful position and spent the rest of his life wandering around the country. 4. What do we know about Li Bai’s poems? A. They were consistent in style. B. They were like the poems of Du Fu. C. They used more complex language. D. They were written in various styles. 5. What can we infer about Du Fu from the third paragraph? A. He didn’t like to be an official. B. He was not loyal to the emperor. C. He became an official in his thirties. D. He cared about government affairs. 6. What happened in the late years of Du Fu’s life? A. He changed his writing style. B. He wandered around the country. C. He was called back by the emperor. D. He enjoyed his minor provincial post. 7. What is the text mainly about? A. Du Fu’s political career. B. Du Fu’s poetry and his life. C. The rule of Emperor Xuanzong. D. Du Fu’s contribution to the Tang Dynasty. 【答案】4. A 5. D 6. B 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了唐朝诗人杜甫的生平。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Unlike Li Bai, this poet wrote in various styles, and his works were often innovative (创新的) in language and subject matter. His poems were also filled with meaning.(与李白不同，这位诗人以各种风格写作，他的作品在语言和主题上经常是创新的。他的诗也充满了意义。)”可知，李白的诗风格始终如一。故选A。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“This was the time when Emperor Xuanzong was attracted to the beautiful Yang Yuhuan and made her his concubine (妃子), which Du Fu severely criticised in his Song of the Beautiful Ladies.(这是唐玄宗被美丽的杨玉环所吸引，并册封她为妾的时候，杜甫在他的《丽人行》中严厉批评了这一点。)”可知，对于唐玄宗和杨贵妃的事情，杜甫在诗歌中加以猛烈抨击，说明他关心政务。故选D。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“In 759 he finally left this disgraceful position and spent the rest of his life wandering around the country. (759年，他终于离开了这个不光彩的职位，在全国各地度过了余生。)”可知，杜甫晚年周游全国。故选B。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。纵观全文可知，本文前面对杜甫的诗歌略作介绍，后面重点介绍了他的生平，所以文章的主要内容是杜甫的诗与生平。故选B。 阅读理解 A few years ago, we celebrated Frankenstein’s 200th birthday. This famous book, written by British novelist Mary Shelley (1797—1851), is rightly known as the first work of science fiction. Frankenstein is the name of a doctor who creates a creature from human body parts. The doctor’s ambitions for his work are noble, but his experiment has disastrous results. Shelley was writing in an age when science was beginning to have a great impact on the world. People had different attitudes toward science back then. Some found it inspiring- they thought of the progress medicine was making in curing common illnesses. But others found it a little frightening—it was changing the, making it a lot less familiar. Science plays a bigger part in our lives than it did two centuries ago. Today, science has brought us great things like the internet, but also nuclear weapons, which, if used in large numbers, could kill off our species. Science still therefore creates the mixed feelings it did in Shelley’s day. It’s because Shelley saw both the promise and the danger of science that she’s still an influence today. In fact, the subtitle of the book, The Modern Prometheus (普罗米修斯), shows how important myth (神话) was to the writer. Prometheus, a figure from classical Greek mythology, written by ancient Greek playwright Sophocles, steals fire from the gods and gives it to people, an act for which he is terribly punished. Shelley’s husband, the famous poet Percy Shelley, wrote about him in Prometheus Unbound. In the poem, he is a revolutionary hero, who triumphs over the gods. In Mary Shelley’s book, however, her modern Prometheus. Dr Frankenstein, is a highly controversial figure, who sacrifices his home and life for his crazy addiction to his creation. In short, Mary Shelley’s book is not just a scary and moving story, but a philosophical tale that, even after 200 years, still speaks to modern readers. 8. What can we know about Dr Frankenstein and the creature he made? A. He created it with animal parts. B. He managed to kill it in the end. C. He created it with good intentions. D. He was aware of its dangers before its creation. 9. Why do today’s readers still relate to Mary Shelley? A. Her work discusses what it means to be human. B. Her work warns people of the two sides of science. C Her work explains that any life deserves our respect. D. Her work proves the important role of science in life. 10. Compared with Prometheus in Greek mythology, Dr Frankenstein _______. A. is a revolutionary hero B. has inspired many poets C. causes some disagreement D. suffers little for what he does 11. What is the text? A. A book review. B. A news report. C. A short story. D. A biography. 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇书评。介绍了作家Mary Shelley的经典小说Frankenstein的写作背景，创作意图，文化内涵，重点挖掘其对现代社会的启示。 8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Frankenstein is the name of a doctor who creates a creature from human body parts. The doctor’s ambitions for his work are noble, but his experiment has disastrous results.(弗兰肯斯坦是一个医生的名字，他从人体部位创造了一个生物。这位医生对他的工作有崇高的抱负，但他的实验却产生了灾难性的结果。)”可知，Dr Frankenstein创造那个生物的初衷是好的。故选C。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“It’s because Shelley saw both the promise and the danger of science that she’s still an influence today.(正是因为雪莱看到了科学的希望和危险，她今天仍然有影响力。)”可知，今天的读者仍然对Mary Shelley感兴趣是因为她的作品提醒人们注意科学的两面性。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Prometheus, a figure from classical Greek mythology, written by ancient Greek playwright Sophocles, steals fire from the gods and gives it to people, an act for which he is terribly punished.(Prometheus是古希腊剧作家Sophocles创作的古典希腊神话中的一个人物，他从众神那里偷火给人，因此受到了严厉的惩罚。)”和“Dr Frankenstein, is a highly controversial figure, who sacrifices his home and life for his crazy addiction to his creation.(Dr Frankenstein是一个极具争议的人物，他为了疯狂沉迷于自己的发明而牺牲了自己的家庭和生活。)”可知，与希腊神话中的Prometheus相比，Dr Frankenstein引起了一些争论，故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“This famous book, written by British novelist Mary Shelley (1797—1851), is rightly known as the first work of science fiction. Frankenstein is the name of a doctor who creates a creature from human body parts. The doctor’s ambitions for his work are noble, but his experiment has disastrous results.(这部由英国小说家Mary Shelley(1797-1851)所著的名著，被公认为是科幻小说的第一部。弗兰肯斯坦是一位医生的名字，他用人类的身体部位创造出一种生物。这位医生对他的工作有崇高的抱负，但他的实验却产生了灾难性的结果。)”可知，这是一篇书评，介绍了作家Mary Shelley的经典小说Frankenstein的写作背景，创作意图，文化内涵，重点挖掘其对现代社会的启示。故选A。 阅读理解 Casting blame is natural: it is tempting to fault someone else for a mistake rather than taking responsibility yourself. But blame is also harmful. It makes it less likely that people will admit mistakes, and thus less likely that organizations can learn from them. Research published in 2015 suggests that firms whose managers pointed to external factors to explain their failings underperformed companies that blamed themselves. Blame culture asks, “who dropped the ball?” instead of “where did our systems and processes fail?” The focus is on the individuals, not the processes. It’s much easier to point fingers at a person or department instead of doing the harder, but the more beneficial, exercise of fixing the root cause, so the problem does not happen again. The No Blame Culture was introduced to make sure errors and deficiencies (缺陷) were highlighted by employees as early as possible. It originated in organizations like hospitals, submarines and airlines. Because errors can be so disastrous in these organizations, it’s dangerous to operate in an environment where employees don’t feel able to report errors that have been made or raise concerns that deficiencies may turn into future errors. The No Blame Culture maximizes responsibility because all contributions to the event occurring are identified and reviewed for possible change and improvement. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), which supervises air traffic across the United States, makes it clear that its role is not to assign blame or legal responsibility but to find out what went wrong and to issue recommendations to avoid a repeat. The proud record of the airline industry in reducing accidents partly reflects no-blame processes for investigating crashes and close calls. The motive to learn from errors also exists when the risks are lower. That is why software engineers and developers routinely investigate what went wrong if a website crashes or a server goes down. There is an obvious worry about embracing blamelessness. What if the website keeps crashing and the same person is at fault? Sometimes, after all, blame is deserved. The “just culture” developed by James Reason, addresses the concern that the incompetent and the malevolent (恶意) will be let off the hook. The line that Britain’s aviation regulator draws between honest errors and the other sort is a good starting-point. It promises a culture in which people “are not punished for actions or decisions taken by them that go with their experience and training”. That narrows room for blame but does not remove it entirely. 12. According to the research published in 2015, which companies had better performance? A. The companies that blamed external factors B. The companies that admitted mistakes C. The companies that conducted investigations D. The companies that accepted failures 13. According to the passage, the No Blame Culture ________. A. encourages the early disclosure of errors B. only exists in high reliability organizations C. enables people to shift the blame onto others D. prevents organizations from learning from errors 14. What is the major concern about embracing blamelessness according to the passage? A. Being blamed for mistakes can destroy trust in employees. B. The line between honest errors and the other sort is not clear. C. Innocent people might take the blame by admitting their failure. D. People won’t learn their lessons if they aren’t blamed for failures. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. How to Avoid Disastrous Errors in Organizations B. Why We Fail to Learn from Our Own Mistakes C. Why We Should Stop the Blame Game at Work D. How to Deal with Workplace Blame Culture 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是“无指责文化”及其在组织、行业中的应用与争议。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Research published in 2015 suggests that firms whose managers pointed to external factors to explain their failings underperformed companies that blamed themselves.(2015年发表的一项研究表明，那些经理人把失败归咎于外部因素的公司，其表现不如那些把失败归咎于自己的公司。)”可知，表现更好的公司是那些能够自己承认错误的公司。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The No Blame Culture was introduced to make sure errors and deficiencies (缺陷) were highlighted by employees as early as possible.(“无指责文化”引入是为了确保员工能够尽早地指出错误和不足。)”可知，无指责文化鼓励员工尽早指出错误和缺陷。故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“There is an obvious worry about embracing blamelessness. What if the website keeps crashing and the same person is at fault? Sometimes, after all, blame is deserved.(对于接受无罪（或无责任）状态有着明显的担忧。如果网站持续崩溃，而且是同一个人的错，那该怎么办？毕竟，有时责备是理所应当的。)”可知，对于在错误不断发生且责任明确时，如果不进行指责，人们是否会从中吸取教训的担忧。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第三段“The No Blame Culture was introduced to make sure errors and deficiencies (缺陷) were highlighted by employees as early as possible. It originated in organizations like hospitals, submarines and airlines. Because errors can be so disastrous in these organizations, it’s dangerous to operate in an environment where employees don’t feel able to report errors that have been made or raise concerns that deficiencies may turn into future errors. The No Blame Culture maximizes responsibility because all contributions to the event occurring are identified and reviewed for possible change and improvement.(“无指责文化”的引入是为了确保员工能够尽早地指出错误和不足。因为在这些组织中，错误可能是灾难性的，所以在这样一个环境中工作是很危险的，在这个环境中，员工不能感到能够报告已经发生的错误，或者引起对缺陷可能转变为未来错误的担忧。无指责文化将责任最大化，因为所有对事件发生的贡献都被识别和审查，以寻求可能的改变和改进。)”可知，本文主要讲的是“无指责文化”及其在组织、行业中的应用与争议，因此最好的题目是C选项“Why We Should Stop the Blame Game at Work(为什么我们应该停止工作中的指责游戏)”。故选C。 四、第二节(共5小题：每小题2. 5分。满分12. 5分 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Everyone feels a little jealous (嫉妒的) once in a while.

Professor James walked into the classroom and announced that he had invited a special guest to class, but his guest had been delayed. The class stirred with curiosity and anticipation. “Who is coming?” someone asked. “All I will tell you is that he is the author of one of the books you have read for this class,” he said. “I need a volunteer to meet him and guide him here.” To my amazement, my right hand shot up. I never volunteer for anything. I’m introverted(内向的), shy, and uncomfortable meeting new people. In fact, I’m absolutely the wrong person for the job. Realizing my mistake, I put my hand down quickly, but it was too late. “Thank you, David,” said Professor James. “You’d better leave now. He will be arriving any minute.” Seeing no way to back out, I reluctantly got out of my seat and headed for the classroom door. When I reached it, I stopped. “Umm,” I said. “If I don’t know who this person is, how will I recognize him? I would hate to bring back the wrong guy.” Professor James laughed. “Good point,” he said. He pulled me aside and whispered a name in my ear. “Alex Haley,” he said. “Really?” I said. I regretted for volunteering. Why me? Alex Haley is one of the authors of The Autobiography of Malcolm X : As Told to Alex Haley. He is so famous. As I walked across the campus, my anxiety grew. I feared that I was about to embarrass myself in front of the famous gentleman by asking stupid questions, or worse, by guiding him in painful silence. But at the moment I realized why I instinctively raised my hand to volunteer for this job. The man was what I wanted to be: a writer. I could learn from him. 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。 I paced back and forth until a man with a briefcase(公文包) entered the building. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Encouraged by Mr Haley, I stopped worrying whether I had the talent for writing. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 I paced back and forth until a man with a briefcase(公文包) entered the building. I approached him, asking if he was Alex Haley. He nodded politely. I introduced myself to him. My heart pounded. However, after talking with him briefly, I was struck by how approachable he was. My fear was replaced by curiosity and admiration. I told him I wanted to be a writer, but I didn’t know if I had the talent. He laughed and said, “There is no magical gift. Put in the work. Write every day, and don’t give up until you succeed.” Encouraged by Mr Haley, I stopped worrying whether I had the talent for writing. Instead, I started accumulating writing materials and practised writing every day. Whatever happened, I stuck to my initial aspiration and kept in the right track. Within two years, I published three stories in national children’s magazines. I have been writing and publishing ever since. Had I not volunteered to meet this extraordinary man, I would never have received the benefit of his wise advice and the rewards that followed. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者在一次文学课上主动举手请求去接一名非常著名的作家Alex Haley，这件事让性格内向的作者感觉到了不安和焦虑，担心自己会出丑，直到接到了Haley，通过与他接触，作者心生敬佩之情，且这次经历促使作者开始专注于写作，最终成功作家的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我来回踱步，直到一个拿着公文包的人走进大楼。”可知，第一段可描写作者找到了Alex Haley并与其交谈，改变了作者的感受。 ②由第二段首句内容“在哈利先生的鼓励下，我不再担心自己是否有写作天赋。”可知，第二段可描写作者受到鼓舞，开始专注于写作，最终成为作家。 2.续写线索：询问是否Haley先生——与Haley先生交谈——改变感受——Haley鼓励作者写作——作者专注于写作——作者发表作品 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①询问：ask/enquire ②直到：know/be aware 情绪类 ①礼貌地：politely/with courtesy ②恐惧：fear/scare 【点睛】[高分句型1] However, after talking with him briefly, I was struck by how approachable he was.（由how引导的宾语从句和动名词作宾语） [高分句型2] Had I not volunteered to meet this extraordinary man, I would never have received the benefit of his wise advice and the rewards that followed.（由关系代词that引导限制性定语从句和与过去事实相反假设的虚拟语气及部分倒装结构） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 四川省绵阳南山中学2024-2025学年高二下学期期中考试英语试卷 一、第一部分 听力(共两节, 满分30分)第一节(共5小题;每小题1. 5分, 满分7. 5分)听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题, 从题中所给的A、B、C 三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后, 你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1．What is the woman’s wish?

Unlike Li Bai, this poet wrote in various styles, and his works were often innovative (创新的) in language and subject matter. His poems were also filled with meaning. His innovation was not at all welcome. The readers of his time rarely showed much appreciation of his original and innovative works. The masses in fact hated and scolded them. Like many artists, Du Fu was only recognised for his genius long after his death. Du Fu was born in Luoyang, Henan Province. Although he came from an influential literary family, his early attempts to gain a position in the government by way of the exam system failed repeatedly. He was 43 years old when he finally managed to hold an official position. This was the time when Emperor Xuanzong was attracted to the beautiful Yang Yuhuan and made her his concubine (妃子), which Du Fu severely criticised in his Song of the Beautiful Ladies. As the emperor got distracted from important government affairs, some military leaders were becoming too powerful. Du Fu took office in 755, and in the same year a rebel(叛乱) leader An Lushan led his army into the capital of Tang Dynasty. The emperor fled to the west and left the governing of the state to his son. Du Fu and his family took the road north to escape the rebels. The poet left his family and tried to get to the headquarters of the new emperor, but he was caught and held prisoner by the rebels in Chang’an. After order was restored again, Du Fu got back his position in the capital. However, he did not enjoy the favour of the new emperor and was given a minor provincial post. In 759 he finally left this disgraceful position and spent the rest of his life wandering around the country. 4. What do we know about Li Bai’s poems? A. They were consistent in style. B. They were like the poems of Du Fu. C. They used more complex language. D. They were written in various styles. 5. What can we infer about Du Fu from the third paragraph? A. He didn’t like to be an official. B. He was not loyal to the emperor. C. He became an official in his thirties. D. He cared about government affairs. 6. What happened in the late years of Du Fu’s life? A He changed his writing style. B. He wandered around the country. C. He was called back by the emperor. D He enjoyed his minor provincial post. 7. What is the text mainly about? A. Du Fu’s political career. B. Du Fu’s poetry and his life. C. The rule of Emperor Xuanzong. D. Du Fu’s contribution to the Tang Dynasty. 阅读理解 A few years ago, we celebrated Frankenstein’s 200th birthday. This famous book, written by British novelist Mary Shelley (1797—1851), is rightly known as the first work of science fiction. Frankenstein is the name of a doctor who creates a creature from human body parts. The doctor’s ambitions for his work are noble, but his experiment has disastrous results. Shelley was writing in an age when science was beginning to have a great impact on the world. People had different attitudes toward science back then. Some found it inspiring- they thought of the progress medicine was making in curing common illnesses. But others found it a little frightening—it was changing the, making it a lot less familiar. Science plays a bigger part in our lives than it did two centuries ago. Today, science has brought us great things like the internet, but also nuclear weapons, which, if used in large numbers, could kill off our species. Science still therefore creates the mixed feelings it did in Shelley’s day. It’s because Shelley saw both the promise and the danger of science that she’s still an influence today. In fact, the subtitle of the book, The Modern Prometheus (普罗米修斯), shows how important myth (神话) was to the writer. Prometheus, a figure from classical Greek mythology, written by ancient Greek playwright Sophocles, steals fire from the gods and gives it to people, an act for which he is terribly punished. Shelley’s husband, the famous poet Percy Shelley, wrote about him in Prometheus Unbound. In the poem, he is a revolutionary hero, who triumphs over the gods. In Mary Shelley’s book, however, her modern Prometheus. Dr Frankenstein, is a highly controversial figure, who sacrifices his home and life for his crazy addiction to his creation.

It makes it less likely that people will admit mistakes, and thus less likely that organizations can learn from them. Research published in 2015 suggests that firms whose managers pointed to external factors to explain their failings underperformed companies that blamed themselves. Blame culture asks, “who dropped the ball?” instead of “where did our systems and processes fail?” The focus is on the individuals, not the processes. It’s much easier to point fingers at a person or department instead of doing the harder, but the more beneficial, exercise of fixing the root cause, so the problem does not happen again. The No Blame Culture was introduced to make sure errors and deficiencies (缺陷) were highlighted by employees as early as possible. It originated in organizations like hospitals, submarines and airlines. Because errors can be so disastrous in these organizations, it’s dangerous to operate in an environment where employees don’t feel able to report errors that have been made or raise concerns that deficiencies may turn into future errors. The No Blame Culture maximizes responsibility because all contributions to the event occurring are identified and reviewed for possible change and improvement. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), which supervises air traffic across the United States, makes it clear that its role is not to assign blame or legal responsibility but to find out what went wrong and to issue recommendations to avoid a repeat. The proud record of the airline industry in reducing accidents partly reflects no-blame processes for investigating crashes and close calls. The motive to learn from errors also exists when the risks are lower. That is why software engineers and developers routinely investigate what went wrong if a website crashes or a server goes down. There is an obvious worry about embracing blamelessness. What if the website keeps crashing and the same person is at fault? Sometimes, after all, blame is deserved. The “just culture” developed by James Reason, addresses the concern that the incompetent and the malevolent (恶意的) will be let off the hook. The line that Britain’s aviation regulator draws between honest errors and the other sort is a good starting-point. It promises a culture in which people “are not punished for actions or decisions taken by them that go with their experience and training”. That narrows room for blame but does not remove it entirely. 12. According to the research published in 2015, which companies had better performance? A. The companies that blamed external factors B. The companies that admitted mistakes C. The companies that conducted investigations D. The companies that accepted failures 13. According to the passage, the No Blame Culture ________. A. encourages the early disclosure of errors B. only exists in high reliability organizations C. enables people to shift the blame onto others D. prevents organizations from learning from errors 14. What is the major concern about embracing blamelessness according to the passage? A. Being blamed for mistakes can destroy trust in employees. B. The line between honest errors and the other sort is not clear. C. Innocent people might take the blame by admitting their failure. D. People won’t learn their lessons if they aren’t blamed for failures. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. How to Avoid Disastrous Errors in Organizations B. Why We Fail to Learn from Our Own Mistakes C. Why We Should Stop the Blame Game at Work D. How to Deal with Workplace Blame Culture 四、第二节(共5小题：每小题2. 5分。满分12. 5分 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Everyone feels a little jealous (嫉妒的) once in a while.

Professor James walked into the classroom and announced that he had invited a special guest to class, but his guest had been delayed. The class stirred with curiosity and anticipation. “Who is coming?” someone asked. “All I will tell you is that he is the author of one of the books you have read for this class,” he said. “I need a volunteer to meet him and guide him here.” To my amazement, my right hand shot up. I never volunteer for anything. I’m introverted(内向的), shy, and uncomfortable meeting new people. In fact, I’m absolutely the wrong person for the job. Realizing my mistake, I put my hand down quickly, but it was too late. “Thank you, David,” said Professor James. “You’d better leave now. He will be arriving any minute.” Seeing no way to back out, I reluctantly got out of my seat and headed for the classroom door. When I reached it, I stopped. “Umm,” I said. “If I don’t know who this person is, how will I recognize him? I would hate to bring back the wrong guy.” Professor James laughed. “Good point,” he said. He pulled me aside and whispered a name in my ear. “Alex Haley,” he said. “Really?” I said. I regretted for volunteering. Why me? Alex Haley is one of the authors of The Autobiography of Malcolm X : As Told to Alex Haley. He is so famous. As I walked across the campus, my anxiety grew. I feared that I was about to embarrass myself in front of the famous gentleman by asking stupid questions, or worse, by guiding him in painful silence. But at the moment I realized why I instinctively raised my hand to volunteer for this job. The man was what I wanted to be: a writer. I could learn from him. 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。 I paced back and forth until a man with a briefcase(公文包) entered the building. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Encouraged by Mr Haley, I stopped worrying whether I had the talent for writing. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
