At 90 years old, Barby Keel is proving that compassion (同情心) knows no age limit. Over the past 54 years, she has devoted her life to rescuing animals in need — saving an estimated 10,000 from neglect, abuse, and abandonment through the Barby Keel Animal Shelter in Sussex, England.
What started with a simple favor in the 1970s — caring for a soldier’s dog while he was stationed in Northern Ireland — turned into a lifelong mission. The dog never left, and soon Barby was asked to take in a few cats. Decades later, her shelter now spreads 12acres and is home to more than 600 animals.
Barby spent the first 20 years running the shelter entirely on her own, and today she is supported by a devoted team of volunteers. Despite having faced cancer three times, she still wakes at 7 a.m. every day to care for her beloved animals and says she “never” takes a day off. “Some days I am tired out — it’s hard work,” she said. “But then I get a little nose touch or a face look up at me, and I remember why I’m doing this. My animals come first and always will.”
Today, the shelter is a nonprofit that relies entirely on public donations. It recently reopened to the public and welcomes visitors every Sunday through October 2025, free of charge. Guests can meet the animals, visit the café and gift shop, and learn more about the lives that have been saved. Barby also uses her own pension (养老金) to buy amounts of pet food, which she resells at low prices to help struggling pet owners.
“I’m so thankful for my brilliant team of volunteers and all the kind people who support us,” she said. “I know I can’t do everything anymore, but I still get up early to feed the cats and check on them all. It’s a lovely life.” Her secret to staying strong? “Hard work and a breakfast of beans every morning.”
4. What originally made Barby set up the animal shelter?
A. Her wish to make friends.
B. Her desire to gain reputation.
C. Her promise to look after a dog.
D. Her intention to raise pet animals.
5. Why does Barby continue her work despite the challenges?
A. The shelter needs donations.
B. She hopes to treat her disease.
C. She wants to earn more money.
D. The love for animals inspires her.
6. Which of the following can best describe Barby?
A. Selfless and determined. B. Strict and intelligent.
C. Generous and knowledgeable. D. Honest and innovative.
7. What does the writer intend to tell us?
A. Volunteers are essential for animal shelters.
B. Running an animal shelter is extremely difficult.
C. Many animals are suffering from bad conditions.
D. Age does not limit one’s ability to make a difference.
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. A 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了90岁的Barby Keel过去54年致力于拯救需要帮助的动物,她的动物收容所救助了约10000只动物,尽管面临挑战,她仍因对动物的爱坚持工作。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“What started with a simple favor in the 1970s — caring for a soldier’s dog while he was stationed in Northern Ireland — turned into a lifelong mission.(上世纪70年代,一个简单的帮忙——在一名士兵驻扎北爱尔兰期间照顾他的狗——变成了一项终身使命)”可知,Barby最初是因为答应照顾一只狗,后来才逐渐发展建立了动物收容所。故选C项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中Barby的话“But then I get a little nose touch or a face look up at me, and I remember why I’m doing this. My animals come first and always will.(但当我感受到它们用鼻子蹭我或者抬头看着我时,我就想起我为什么要做这件事。我的动物永远是第一位的)”可知,Barby对动物的爱激励着她尽管面临挑战仍继续工作。故选D项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“Barby also uses her own pension (养老金) to buy amounts of pet food, which she resells at low prices to help struggling pet owners.(Barby还用自己的养老金购买大量宠物食品,然后以低价转售给经济困难的宠物主人)”可知,她无私地帮助他人,体现了她的无私。再根据第三段中“Despite having faced cancer three times, she still wakes at 7 a.m. every day to care for her beloved animals and says she “never” takes a day off.(尽管三次患癌,她仍然每天早上7点起床照顾她心爱的动物,并且说她“从不”休假)”可知,她不顾自身困难坚持照顾动物,体现了她的坚定。所以Barby是无私且坚定的。故选A项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。文章开篇点明“At 90 years old, Barby Keel is proving that compassion (同情心) knows no age limit.(90岁的Barby Keel证明了同情心没有年龄限制)”,奠定了全文的主旨基调。接着详细叙述了Barby从上世纪70年代一个简单的照顾狗的举动开始,逐步将其发展成终身使命,建立起动物收容所,救助了约10000只动物。她独自经营收容所20年,即便三次患癌,依然每天早起照顾动物。她还拿出自己的养老金帮助有困难的宠物主人。这些具体事例都充分展示了尽管Barby年事已高,但她在拯救动物、奉献爱心这件事上从未退缩,一直在积极行动并做出巨大贡献。由此可见,作者通过讲述Barby的故事,旨在传达年龄并不能限制一个人发挥自身能力、为社会和他人做出积极贡献的观点。所以“Age does not limit one’s ability to make a difference.(年龄并不能限制一个人做出贡献的能力)”最能概括作者的写作意图。故选D项。
C
Almost half of young people would rather live in a world where the internet does not exist, according to a new survey.
The research reveals that nearly 70% of 16 to 21-year-olds feel worse about themselves after spending time on social media. Half would support a “digital curfew” that would restrict their access to certain apps and sites past 10 pm, while 46% said they would rather be young in a world without the internet altogether.
The results came after the government weighed up the possibility of making cut-off times mandatory (强制的) for certain apps such as TikTok and Instagram. Rani Govender, the policy manager for child safety online at the NSPCC, said that digital curfews, while helpful, could not stop children being exposed to harmful materials online without other measures being put in place. “We need to make clear that a digital curfew alone is not going to protect children from the risks they face online. They will be able to see all these risks at other points of the day and they will still have the same impact,” she said.
The study, conducted by the British Standards Institution, surveyed 1,293 young people and three-quarters said they had spent more time online as a result of the pandemic, while 68% said they felt the time they spent online was harmful to their mental health. Andy Burrows, chief executive of the suicide prevention charity the Molly Rose Foundation, said “it was clear that young people are aware of the risks online and want action from tech companies to protect them”.
He added that algorithms (算法) can provide content that “can quickly spread and take young people down rabbit holes of harmful material through no fault of their own”. New laws were “urgently required to embed a safe approach to regulation that puts the needs of children and society ahead of those of big tech”, he said.
8. What does the phrase “digital curfew” in paragraph 2 probably refer to ?
A. A complete ban on digital devices.
B. Parental control over the use of software.
C. Governmental monitoring of online activity.
D. Restrictions on internet access during specific hours.
9. What does Rani Govender think of digital curfews?
A. They are the most effective solution for online safety.
B. They are strongly opposed by most technology companies.
C. They need to be combined with other measures to be effective.
D. They prevent children from accessing harmful content entirely.
10. What does Andy Burrows mean in paragraph four?
A. To call for new laws to regulate big techs.
B. To highlight young people’s concerns and demand.
C. To point out tech companies’ responsibility for online safety.
D. To criticize young people for spending too much time online.
11. What can be learned about algorithms in the last paragraph ?
A. Algorithms effectively remove all harmful content.
B. Algorithms make it easy to find desired content quickly.
C. Algorithms primarily show content requested by the user.
D. Algorithms can unintentionally lead users to harmful content.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了一项新调查显示近一半的年轻人宁愿生活在一个没有互联网的世界里,并探讨了数字宵禁、网络安全以及算法对年轻人的影响等相关问题。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据下文“restrict their access to certain apps and sites past 10 pm(在晚上10点后限制他们访问某些应用程序和网站)”可知,一半的人支持“数字宵禁”,由此可知,digital curfew指的是在特定时间限制上网。故选D。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Rani Govender, the policy manager for child safety online at the NSPCC, said that digital curfews, while helpful, could not stop children being exposed to harmful materials online without other measures being put in place.(NSPCC的儿童在线安全政策经理Rani Govender表示,数字宵禁虽然有帮助,但如果不采取其他措施,就无法阻止儿童在网上接触到有害材料。)”可知,Rani Govender认为数字宵禁需要与其他措施相结合才能有效。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Andy Burrows, chief executive of the suicide prevention charity the Molly Rose Foundation, said “it was clear that young people are aware of the risks online and want action from tech companies to protect them”.(自杀预防慈善机构Molly Rose Foundation的首席执行官Andy Burrows表示:“很明显,年轻人意识到网络上的风险,并希望科技公司采取行动保护他们。”)”可知,Andy Burrows在第四段主要是强调年轻人的担忧和需求。故选B。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“He added that algorithms can provide content that “can quickly spread and take young people down rabbit holes of harmful material through no fault of their own.”(他补充说,算法提供的内容“可能会迅速传播,并在年轻人自身毫无过错的情况下,将他们带入有害内容的深渊”。)”可知,算法可能会无意中引导用户访问有害内容。故选D。
D
In the ever-changing world of health trends, the claim (声称) that green tea is a powerful fat-burner has caught the public’s fancy. Driven by marketers and the spread of information in the media, this idea has become a hot topic. Being the curious cat I am, I reached out to two experts for their thoughts: computer scientist Chris Johnson, who’s really good at seeing through false claims, and physicist Philip Taylor, who bases his ideas on research.
Green tea has a long-standing reputation for health benefits, but the recent craze about its fat-burning abilities has taken it to new heights. Health magazines and online articles are full of stories and supposed scientific evidence suggesting that a few cups of green tea a day can speed up metabolism (新陈代谢) and burn fat effortlessly.
However, Johnson warns that such claims are often not based on scientific research. “The green-tea-for-fat-loss industry is a classic case of people just following the crowd,” he says. Companies are going along with the trend, making grand promises without scientific backing to support them. This over-promotion of green tea as a fat-burner is risky. Consumers, hoping for a quick and easy way to lose weight, may waste their money on ineffective products. When these products fail to deliver, it can lead to disappointment and a loss of trust in the health and wellness industry.
Taylor, though he knows what’s going on, has a more balanced view. From his research, he thinks there might be a little bit of truth to the claim that green tea can aid in fat loss, but only when combined with a balanced diet and regular exercise.
So, does green tea really burn fat? Well, it’s not a simple yes or no. There might be some small effects on your metabolism, but it’s definitely not a magic pill for losing weight. As consumers, we should be careful about these claims and only believe information that’s based on real evidence. In the end, a healthy and lasting way to lose weight involves proper nutrition, regular physical activity, and a realistic understanding of what different foods and drinks can do for our bodies.
12. Why did the author ask two experts for their thoughts?
A. To satisfy his curiosity. B. To find new consumers.
C. To test a theory. D. To join the crowd.
13. Which may Johnson agree with about the green-tea-for-fat-loss industry?
A It does the trick for people’s health.
B. It lacks reliable evidence to support the claims.
C. It encourages consumers to buy fitness products.
D. It transforms people’s understanding of getting into shape.
14. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Green tea can be made into a magic pill.
B. Green tea is the first choice for weight reduction.
C. Proper diet and exercise contribute to weight loss.
D. It’s easy to tell the weight-loss effect of green tea.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Does Green Tea Really Burn Fat?
B. Does Green Tea Remain a Mystery?
C. Green Tea: A Magic Weight-Loss Solution
D. Green Tea: A New Focus of Scientific Research
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章围绕绿茶燃脂说法展开讨论,强调减肥应依靠科学方法而非虚假宣传。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Being the curious cat I am, I reached out to two experts for their thoughts (出于我的好奇心,我联系了两位专家听取他们的意见)”可知,作者询问两位专家的意见是为了满足自己的好奇心。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“However, Johnson warns that such claims are often not based on scientific research.(然而,Johnson警告说,这些说法通常没有科学研究依据)”以及“Companies are going along with the trend, making grand promises without scientific backing to support them. (公司顺应这一趋势,在没有科学依据支持的情况下做出重大承诺)”可知,Johnson认为绿茶减肥产业缺乏可靠证据支持其说法。故选B。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“In the end, a healthy and lasting way to lose weight involves proper nutrition, regular physical activity, and a realistic understanding of what different foods and drinks can do for our bodies. (最后,健康而持久的减肥方法包括适当的营养、定期的体育活动,以及对不同食物和饮料对我们身体的作用有现实的理解)”可以推断,合理的饮食和锻炼有助于减肥。故选C。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。全文围绕“绿茶是否能真正燃烧脂肪”展开讨论,引用专家观点,分析市场宣传和科学依据之间的差距,并最终强调健康减肥的正确方式。A选项“Does Green Tea Really Burn Fat?(绿茶真的能燃烧脂肪吗?)”能准确概括全文主题,最适合作为文章标题。故选A。

High self-esteem often reflects healthy self-care practices.(建立自尊很重要,因为它直接影响你如何看待和照顾自己,影响你的整体幸福感。高自尊通常反映出健康的自我照顾习惯)”强调了建立自尊的重要性,D选项“However, it’s no easy task to build healthy self-esteem.(然而,建立健康的自尊并非易事)”与上文构成转折关系,引出下文要介绍建立自尊的规则,上下文语意衔接自然。故选D项。

第二节(满分25分)
52. 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。
I’d always been told to take care of my older brother, Brian, who was born weak and small. I’d often tie his shoes or prepare another glass of water for him. My mom saw my larger size and strong body as a sign that I was to be a kind of guardian angel (守护天使) for Brian. However, that was not the case.
One day our school sponsored a pumpkin-carving contest. First prize was $100, and I knew just how I would spend it. There was a brand-new game I was dying to own. So I decided the first place bonus definitely had to land in my pocket.
When I had to carve the perfect pumpkin I’d picked out, it dawned on me that with my big clumsy fingers I’d surely screw it up (搞砸). I thought of Brian’s smaller, delicate hands and knew he was the man for the job. I immediately begged Brian. Unexpectedly, he asked for a cut. That was fifty-fifty. Quickly doing the math in my head, I figured out even if I split (分摊) the first prize, I’d still have enough cash for the game. So I gave in to Brian’s demands. With skillful hands Brian carved the perfect face, and now we had the best pumpkin ever.
Then the unexpected happened: We came in second. Unfortunately, second prize was only $50, and I needed every penny of that to buy the game. The day of the awards ceremony, the principal handed over the money to me because Brian was home, sick with cold.
If he really wanted to win, he would have been here today, I thought to myself, justifying stealing the cash from under poor Brian’s runny nose. With hardly a thought, I ran to the store and bought my dream game. That night when Brian asked if we had won, I denied, afraid to look into his eyes.
The whole thing was never mentioned again until the day when Brian was packing for college. I played my usual role in helping him pack when I came across an old album filled with photos he had taken as the school photographer.
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 was enjoying the photos when one caught my eye.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
“You actually knew and didn’t say anything?" I was shocked.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1:
I was enjoying the photos when one caught my eye. It was a picture of the pumpkin we had carved together. Underneath, Brian had written, “My first real win with my brother. Even if we didn’t get first, it was a victory because we worked as a team.” Seeing those words, a wave of guilt washed over me. I remembered how I had selfishly taken all the money and lied to him. I realized how much I had let him down. I turned to Brian, ready to confess everything.
Paragraph 2:
“You actually knew and didn’t say anything?” I was shocked. Brian just smiled gently and said, “I always knew. But I also knew that you needed that game more than the money at that time. And I was proud of our teamwork, not the prize. I hoped one day you’d understand the real meaning of winning together.” His words made me feel even more ashamed. I apologized sincerely, vowing to make it up to him. From then on, I truly understood my role as his guardian angel and the importance of true brotherhood.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了作者与哥哥Brian之间的一次经历,展现了兄弟之间的情感变化以及作者对“真正胜利”的理解。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“我正欣赏着这些照片,其中一张吸引了我的目光。”以及第二段首句内容““你其实早就知道却什么都没说?”我震惊地问道。”可知,第一段可描写作者发现自己的哥哥早就知道他们获得了二等奖,却没有揭穿作者。
②由第二段首句内容““你其实早就知道却什么都没说?”我震惊地问道。”可知,第二段可描写作者向哥哥道歉,也真正理解了兄弟情谊的重要性。
2.续写线索:作者欣赏着照片,突然发现了一张俩人一起雕刻南瓜的照片——在照片下,哥哥记下了他们一起雕刻南瓜这件事,并感叹虽然没有获得第一名,但是仍然是胜利——作者突然意识到哥哥早就知道了真相,却没有揭穿自己的谎言——作者准备向哥哥坦白,可是哥哥却温柔地自己为两人的团队合作感到自豪——作者非常愧疚,真诚地向哥哥道歉——从此之后,作者真正理解了兄弟情谊。

At 90 years old, Barby Keel is proving that compassion (同情心) knows no age limit. Over the past 54 years, she has devoted her life to rescuing animals in need — saving an estimated 10,000 from neglect, abuse, and abandonment through the Barby Keel Animal Shelter in Sussex, England.
What started with a simple favor in the 1970s — caring for a soldier’s dog while he was stationed in Northern Ireland — turned into a lifelong mission. The dog never left, and soon Barby was asked to take in a few cats. Decades later, her shelter now spreads 12acres and is home to more than 600 animals.
Barby spent the first 20 years running the shelter entirely on her own, and today she is supported by a devoted team of volunteers. Despite having faced cancer three times, she still wakes at 7 a.m. every day to care for her beloved animals and says she “never” takes a day off. “Some days I am tired out — it’s hard work,” she said. “But then I get a little nose touch or a face look up at me, and I remember why I’m doing this. My animals come first and always will.”
Today, the shelter is a nonprofit that relies entirely on public donations. It recently reopened to the public and welcomes visitors every Sunday through October 2025, free of charge. Guests can meet the animals, visit the café and gift shop, and learn more about the lives that have been saved. Barby also uses her own pension (养老金) to buy amounts of pet food, which she resells at low prices to help struggling pet owners.
“I’m so thankful for my brilliant team of volunteers and all the kind people who support us” she said. “I know I can’t do everything anymore, but I still get up early to feed the cats and check on them all. It’s a lovely life.” Her secret to staying strong? “Hard work and a breakfast of beans every morning.”
4. What originally made Barby set up the animal shelter?
A. Her wish to make friends.
B. Her desire to gain reputation.
C. Her promise to look after a dog.
D. Her intention to raise pet animals.
5. Why does Barby continue her work despite the challenges?
A. The shelter needs donations.
B. She hopes to treat her disease.
C. She wants to earn more money.
D. The love for animals inspires her.
6. Which of the following can best describe Barby?
A. Selfless and determined. B. Strict and intelligent.

Almost half of young people would rather live in a world where the internet does not exist, according to a new survey.
The research reveals that nearly 70% of 16 to 21-year-olds feel worse about themselves after spending time on social media. Half would support a “digital curfew” that would restrict their access to certain apps and sites past 10 pm while 46% said they would rather be young in a world without the internet altogether.
The results came after the government weighed up the possibility of making cut-off times mandatory (强制的) for certain apps such as TikTok and Instagram. Rani Govender, the policy manager for child safety online at the NSPCC, said that digital curfews, while helpful, could not stop children being exposed to harmful materials online without other measures being put in place. “We need to make clear that a digital curfew alone is not going to protect children from the risks they face online. They will be able to see all these risks at other points of the day and they will still have the same impact,” she said.
The study, conducted by the British Standards Institution, surveyed 1,293 young people and three-quarters said they had spent more time online as a result of the pandemic, while 68% said they felt the time they spent online was harmful to their mental health. Andy Burrows, chief executive of the suicide prevention charity the Molly Rose Foundation, said “it was clear that young people are aware of the risks online and want action from tech companies to protect them”.
He added that algorithms (算法) can provide content that “can quickly spread and take young people down rabbit holes of harmful material through no fault of their own”. New laws were “urgently required to embed a safe approach to regulation that puts the needs of children and society ahead of those of big tech”, he said.
8. What does the phrase “digital curfew” in paragraph 2 probably refer to ?
A. A complete ban on digital devices.
B. Parental control over the use of software.
C. Governmental monitoring of online activity.
D. Restrictions on internet access during specific hours.
9. What does Rani Govender think of digital curfews?
A. They are the most effective solution for online safety.
B. They are strongly opposed by most technology companies.
C. They need to be combined with other measures to be effective.
D. They prevent children from accessing harmful content entirely.
10. What does Andy Burrows mean in paragraph four?
A. To call for new laws to regulate big techs.
B. To highlight young people’s concerns and demand.
C. To point out tech companies’ responsibility for online safety.
D. To criticize young people for spending too much time online.
11. What can be learned about algorithms in the last paragraph ?
A. Algorithms effectively remove all harmful content.
B. Algorithms make it easy to find desired content quickly.
C. Algorithms primarily show content requested by the user.
D. Algorithms can unintentionally lead users to harmful content.
D
In the ever-changing world of health trends, the claim (声称) that green tea is a powerful fat-burner has caught the public’s fancy. Driven by marketers and the spread of information in the media, this idea has become a hot topic. Being the curious cat I am, I reached out to two experts for their thoughts: computer scientist Chris Johnson, who’s really good at seeing through false claims, and physicist Philip Taylor, who bases his ideas on research.
Green tea has a long-standing reputation for health benefits, but the recent craze about its fat-burning abilities has taken it to new heights. Health magazines and online articles are full of stories and supposed scientific evidence suggesting that a few cups of green tea a day can speed up metabolism (新陈代谢) and burn fat effortlessly.
However, Johnson warns that such claims are often not based on scientific research. “The green-tea-for-fat-loss industry is a classic case of people just following the crowd,” he says. Companies are going along with the trend, making grand promises without scientific backing to support them. This over-promotion of green tea as a fat-burner is risky. Consumers, hoping for a quick and easy way to lose weight, may waste their money on ineffective products. When these products fail to deliver, it can lead to disappointment and a loss of trust in the health and wellness industry.
Taylor, though he knows what’s going on, has a more balanced view. From his research, he thinks there might be a little bit of truth to the claim that green tea can aid in fat loss, but only when combined with a balanced diet and regular exercise.
So does green tea really burn fat? Well, it’s not a simple yes or no. There might be some small effects on your metabolism, but it’s definitely not a magic pill for losing weight. As consumers, we should be careful about these claims and only believe information that’s based on real evidence. In the end, a healthy and lasting way to lose weight involves proper nutrition, regular physical activity, and a realistic understanding of what different foods and drinks can do for our bodies.
12. Why did the author ask two experts for their thoughts?
A. To satisfy his curiosity. B. To find new consumers.
C. To test a theory. D. To join the crowd.
13. Which may Johnson agree with about the green-tea-for-fat-loss industry?
A. It does the trick for people’s health.
B. It lacks reliable evidence to support the claims.
C. It encourages consumers to buy fitness products.
D. It transforms people’s understanding of getting into shape.
14. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Green tea can be made into a magic pill.
B Green tea is the first choice for weight reduction.
C. Proper diet and exercise contribute to weight loss.
D. It’s easy to tell the weight-loss effect of green tea.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Does Green Tea Really Burn Fat?
B. Does Green Tea Remain a Mystery?
C. Green Tea: A Magic Weight-Loss Solution
D. Green Tea: A New Focus of Scientific Research

52. 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。
I’d always been told to take care of my older brother, Brian, who was born weak and small. I’d often tie his shoes or prepare another glass of water for him. My mom saw my larger size and strong body as a sign that I was to be a kind of guardian angel (守护天使) for Brian. However, that was not the case.
One day our school sponsored a pumpkin-carving contest. First prize was $100, and I knew just how I would spend it. There was a brand-new game I was dying to own. So I decided the first place bonus definitely had to land in my pocket.
When I had to carve the perfect pumpkin I’d picked out, it dawned on me that with my big clumsy fingers I’d surely screw it up (搞砸). I thought of Brian’s smaller, delicate hands and knew he was the man for the job. I immediately begged Brian. Unexpectedly, he asked for a cut. That was fifty-fifty. Quickly doing the math in my head, I figured out even if I split (分摊) the first prize, I’d still have enough cash for the game. So I gave in to Brian’s demands. With skillful hands Brian carved the perfect face, and now we had the best pumpkin ever.
Then the unexpected happened: We came in second. Unfortunately, second prize was only $50, and I needed every penny of that to buy the game. The day of the awards ceremony, the principal handed over the money to me because Brian was home, sick with cold.
If he really wanted to win, he would have been here today, I thought to myself, justifying stealing the cash from under poor Brian’s runny nose. With hardly a thought, I ran to the store and bought my dream game. That night when Brian asked if we had won, I denied, afraid to look into his eyes.
The whole thing was never mentioned again until the day when Brian was packing for college. I played my usual role in helping him pack when I came across an old album filled with photos he had taken as the school photographer.
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 was enjoying the photos when one caught my eye.

“You actually knew and didn’t say anything?" I was shocked.
