laughed and continued,"Well,last time we
were here you wanted to feel my legs and you
actually said,‘Kay,you're getting flabby!'

response.In a tone of disbelief,she scoffed,
“‘Flabby,flabby?'That word is not even in
my vocabulary!”(150 words)

概要写作
【语篇导读】本文是说明文。全文说明了疲
劳是如何产生的,以及我们应该如何消除
疲劳。
【思路点拨】
文章第一段首先解释了是什么引起了我
们的疲劳。第二段解释了引起疲劳的其他因
素,这个因素就是fatigue toxins.。第三段介绍
了科学家在狗身上所做的疲劳试验—将
fatigue toxins放在一只活跃的狗身上,那只狗
马上感到疲劳。第四段讲述疲劳不仅仅是化
学过程,也是生物过程。最后两段讲述消除疲
劳的两种方式:一是让身体的其他部位活跃起
来;二是如果非常疲劳,最好的解决办法就是
睡眠。
【参考范文】
Studies have found that tiredness is caused
by a poison called lactic acid.But there are
other substances known as fatigue toxins that
48
cause our tiredness.Tiredness is both a chemical
and biological process.We cannot just remove
tiredness.But there are two ways to make us
active when we are tired:to make other parts
of the body active,and to sleep.(62 words)

读后续写
【语篇导读】本文是记叙文。全文讲述作者
在这个月做的几件有意义的事情。
【思路点拨】
首先要摘清楚给出部分的篇章结构。已
经给出部分不是一个故事,而是作者所做的几
件事情:第一段讲述作者今天对祖母的照顺;
第二段讲述对自己朋友募捐的帮助:第三段讲
述作者自己现在的状况。
续写部分第一段的提示讲述了自己走在
路上时,一个男子走过来。这个男子走近作者
后发生了什么事情?这是我们难以预料的,因
此我们的续写无从下手,但是从第二段首句
"He hugged me and thanked me and he said he
really hoped that I would listen to the CD by
the talented girls..”可知,在续写第一段,那个
人一定向作者介绍了几位有才华的女孩
的CD。
从第二段首句可知,作者拿钱买了CD。
然后续写部分讲述作者买了CD后所做的事情
以及感受等。在续写时一定要抓住the
talented girls这个信息。显然这张CD是非常
出色的,作者是非常喜欢的。
续写时一定要做好前后的铺垫,利用好给
出的信息词,做到前后连贯,不要出现令读者
感到突兀的情况。
【参考范文】
Last week,I was walking back from a
work event when I was approached by a man
on the street.He was showing to me a music
album that he and his students produced.I am
always a little skeptical of people selling things
to me on the street or a stranger asking me for
money.He explained that this program gives
students a place to go to after school and that
any donation would help the program.I did ask
a few more questions about the program to
know more,but I decided to give him the few
dollars I had in my wallet.
He hugged me and thanked me and he
said he really hoped that I would listen to the
CD by the talented girls.Getting back home,I
listened to the CD by the girls.This is a group
I previously volunteered with during graduate
school.I care deeply about youth career
development,especially among the talented
girls.With a few hours and dollars,I may help
these girls to achieve their dreams.I plan to

Like most people I know,I love watching television.When I was little,I would always
look forward to watching a children's programme on TV when I arrived home from school.
These days,when I'm at home,I enjoy turning on the television in the evening after a busy
day to watch a funny drama or chat show.Although we typically watch television to unwind
and we often feel guilty about watching too much of it,TV series are an excellent resource for
any aspiring language learner.
When you are learning a language,it is a great idea to choose a foreign language series to
watch.The series can belong to any theme:thriller,drama,comedy or even reality television,
whatever takes your fancy.Watching this series is a fantastic way to improve your listening
skills because the characters will talk at a normal pace and will use authentic language.It is
also a very useful way to familiarise yourself with more colloquial language(which
cannot be found in a textbook but is used regularly in real life.
If you are a beginner,it can be a good idea to start by watching the programme with
subtitles(in your native language.However,as you become more confident,you can
have a go at watching a series with foreign language subtitles or even with no subtitles at all.
Remember that the aim is not to understand every single word!You just need to be able to
understand the overall storyline and you can often work out the meaning of unfamiliar words
and phrases from the context.Although it can be difficult at first,it is important to keep
going!
1.What does the underlined word "unwind"in Paragraph 1 mean?
A.Kill time.

Scientists have worked for twelve years to develop what they call Green Super Rice.They
say several kinds will be developed for farmers in about two years from now in parts of Asia
and Africa.
The "green"in Green Super Rice means environmentally friendly.Researchers say it will
produce at least as much grain as other rice plants but with fewer inputs."Super"means the
rice can grow better to resist()droughts,floods,salty water,insects and diseases.
The developers of Green Super Rice did not use genetic engineering.Instead,they mated
(hundreds of varieties of rice.That way they avoided the costs as well as the problems
connected with getting permission to plant genetically engineered(基因工程)crops.
Modern rice plants produce two to three times more grains than that was possible before
the 1960s.In the sixties,scientists created high-yielding(crops that produced bigger
harvests in what became known as the Green Revolution.It prevented widespread hunger.But
modern rice plants require too much water and too much use of chemicals that can hurt the
environment.And farmers may be too poor to buy chemical fertilizers()and pesticides(
虫剂)
Anna McClung heads a rice-breeding (center for the United States Agriculture
Department.She says combining many different genes into one plant without genetic
engineering requires a lot of plant breeding.Ms.McClung praises the researchers working on
Green Super Rice.
Researchers on the Green Super Rice project continue to combine desirable traits()
into new varieties to help farmers produce more grains with less money.

Have you noticed how many social media posts you see from your friends,family and
celebrities are of them smiling and looking happy?
While it's obvious that people don't want to see lots of photos and videos looking upset
and crying,at the same time,the constant focus on happiness has become an unhealthy
obsession(痴迷).
1 Well,when you look at those pictures of people appearing to be enjoying their lives
and having fun,I'm sure a part of you feels that you're failing to be as happy as others.
But I've got news for you.2 Just because someone's Facebook feed is loaded with
pictures of them looking cheerful-doesn't mean they're happy people.In fact,often the
people who look the happiest,are actually just trying hard to hide their inner sadness.
Can I share a secret with you?True satisfaction and contentment()in life will always
involve regular ups and downs.If you focus on trying to be 100%happy all the time,you'll be
striving towards an unattainable(无法实现的)goal.3
Do you imagine that highly-successful people like Warren Buffett and Bill Gates spend
their time and energy trying to be continually happy?4 They understand that to achieve
BIG things in life,there'll always be rainy days and sunny days.
So,my recommendation to you is to stop chasing permanent happiness,and instead put
your focus on helping others,building your career,and being the best friend,partner and
parent that you can be.5
A.No,that's not the case.
B.What do I mean by this?
C.It's true that everyone is after happiness.
D.One that will eventually leave you disappointed.
E.These are the real ways to a life of achievement.
F.There is no doubt that you cannot stay happy for ever.

Today I went to spend time with my grandma.She is lying in bed and doesn't leave her
house often.She was very happy to see me.We talked about my cousins,my current job
search and her current frustrations with her caretaker.I tried my best to do what I could to
help her by talking to my dad about her frustrations and by helping her reheat her milk.I
haven't seen her for about a month.I will make more of an effort to visit her in the future.
Last week,I donated to my friend's bike ride fundraiser.She is technically one of my
supervisors at work,but I consider her my friend.She is biking 250+miles along the Central
Coast of California to raise money for the transportation climate justice nonprofit(非营利组
that we work at.The girl has always been a supporter for me in my career and wanted to
make sure I gave my support back to her in some way.
As a recent graduate,I along with many of peers am feeling a lot of anxiety about our
future and whether we are making the right decisions for our future.After reading some
books,I felt more sure that my current decisions are taking me on the right path.We were
comforted by the books and their message that the world will give you what you want and that
taking risks may include some setbacks but also include a greater understanding of people and
the world.More importantly,we agreed that the more we feel good about ourselves the more
we can spread happiness to those around us and through our jobs.
I moved back in with my parents after graduating,and I have been feeling spoiled and
very taken care of by my parents in both a good way and a bad way.My mom won't accept my
money or rent because I am working part-time,so I contributed in other ways by washing
dishes and cleaning the bathroom and doing other chores unexpectedly.It's very easy for me to
take and not give back.Even though my mom always volunteers to do housework,I know she
appreciates when I help her with small tasks or when people clean up without her having to
prompt them to show that we all care.
