For the typical UR students, the Java’s on Gibbs St. has become a place of solace during stressful testing times, and on more heartwarming occasions, a social hub. Slowly approaching its thirties, Java’s has enjoyed a good reputation in its local. In 1978, Java Joe created a coffee farm in Hawaii. With great dedication to his craft, the great master of coffee beans made his way to Rochester then. In 1992, Joe decided to start selling coffee at the Public Market and opened up a store on Gibbs St. with the help of Michael Calabrese. This location, next to the Eastman School of Music, is the first of many shops Java Joe opened. As a lover of the blues, Joe enthusiastically decorated this flagship store with artistic and musical influence. After Gibbs location, Joe planted Java Joe’s where he was first starting out — in the Public Market. Later, Java Joe’s moved to a nearby building, and received a name change — Java’s at the Market Coffee Roasters. This building served as a place where those who visited would often catch a glimpse of Joe skillfully roasting his coffee beans in the dancing flames and cultivating his drinks with care. However, in 1997 he licensed “Java Joe’s” to Calabrese, who then renamed the Gibbs Cafe to what we know today — Java’s Café. Joe remained in the Public Market location until he was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Joe died of lung cancer at 68. The influence he had poured into his business is well-known and highly regarded. He has won many awards in his life. The next time you head down to Gibbs St. for your morning cup, keep in mind the extraordinary story of how that cup came to be, all thanks to Java Joe. 24. What does the underlined word “solace” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Tension. B. Anxiety. C. Safety. D. Relief. 25. What is true about Java’s Café on Gibbs St.? A. The name of the shop keeps unchanged up to now. B. It was popular with the locals and students as well. C. Java Joe had the ownership of the shop in 1997. D. It is the flagship store and has won several awards. 26. What is special about Java’s at the Market Coffee Roasters? A. Joe’s specially-made coffee beans. B. Its super-quality coffee and service. C. Joe’s demonstration of coffee-making skills. D. Its attraction to the music school students. 27. What is the text mainly about? A. The popularity of Java’s Cafe. B. The development of the coffee industry. C. The contribution Joe made to Rochester. D. The founder and development of Java’s Cafe. 【答案】24. D 25. B 26. C 27. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了咖啡大师Java Joe在自己的努力下创办了给人们带来舒适体验的Java’s Cafe，以及Java’s Cafe的发展。 【24题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句子“For the typical UR students, the Java’s on Gibbs St. has become a place of solace during stressful testing times, and on more heartwarming occasions, a social hub.（对于典型的UR学生来说，吉布斯街上的Java’s Cafe在紧张的考试期间成为了一个solace的地方，在更温暖的场合，成为了一个社交中心）”可知，咖啡厅能让承受考试压力的学生感到温暖，由此可知，对于他们来说这是一个能得到缓解、安慰的地方，即solace意为“缓解，安慰”，与relief同义。故选D。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的“For the typical UR students, the Java’s on Gibbs St. has become a place of solace during stressful testing times, and on more heartwarming occasions, a social hub.（对于典型的UR学生来说，吉布斯街上的Java’s Cafe在紧张的考试期间成为了提供安慰的地方，在更温暖的场合，成为了一个社交中心）”和第二段的“Slowly approaching its thirties, Java’s has enjoyed a good reputation in its local.(慢慢接近三十岁，爪哇餐厅在当地享有良好的声誉。)”可知，Gibbs街的Java’s Café受到当地人以及学生的欢迎。故选B。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“（Later, Java Joe’s moved to a nearby building, and received a name change—Java’s at the Market Coffee Roasters. This building served as a place where those who visited would often catch a glimpse of Joe skillfully roasting his coffee beans in the dancing flames and cultivating his drinks with care.（后来，Java Joe’s搬到了附近的一栋大楼，并在Market Coffee Roasters得到了Java’s的改名。在这座建筑里，到访的人经常会看到乔在舞动的火焰中熟练地烤着咖啡豆，小心翼翼地培育着咖啡）”可知，Market Coffee Roasters的特别之处是Joe会在那里展示咖啡制作技巧。故选C。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段的“In 1978, Java Joe created a coffee farm in Hawaii. （1978年，Java Joe在夏威夷创建了一个咖啡农场）”和“In 1992, Joe decided to start selling coffee at the Public Market and opened up a store on Gibbs St. with the help of Michael Calabrese. （1992年，乔决定开始在公共市场销售咖啡，并在迈克尔·卡拉布雷斯的帮助下在吉布斯街开了一家商店）”，第三段的“After Gibbs location, Joe planted Java Joe’s where he was first starting out—in the Public Market.（在Gibbs入住后，Joe在他第一次进入公共市场的地方开办了Java Joe’s）”和“However, in 1997 he licensed “Java Joe’s” to Calabrese, who then renamed the Gibbs Cafe to what we know today—Java’s Café.（然而，1997年，他将“Java Joe's”授权给卡拉布里斯，卡拉布里斯随后将吉布斯咖啡馆改名为我们今天所知的Java咖啡馆）”，以及倒数第二段的“Joe remained in the Public Market location until he was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Joe died of lung cancer at 68. （乔在被诊断出患有脑瘤之前一直呆在Public Market 。乔死于肺癌，享年68岁）”可知，本文主要介绍了Java’s Cafe的发展以及它的创始人Java Joe。故选D。 C Choosing to forget something might take more mental effort than trying to remember it, researchers at the University of Texas discovered. Their findings suggest that in order to forget an unwanted experience, more attention should be focused on it. “Decades of research has shown that we have the ability to forget something out of our own free will, but how our brains do that is still being questioned. Once we can figure out how memories are weakened and think out ways to control this, we can design treatment to help people rid themselves of unwanted memories,” said Jarrod Lewis-Peacock, the study’s senior author. Memories are dynamic constructions of the brain that regularly get updated, adjusted and reorganized through experience. The brain is constantly remembering and forgetting information, and much of this happens automatically during sleep. Their findings not only confirmed that humans have the ability to control what they forget, but also that successful intentional forgetting requires more activity than what is required to remember. “A proper level of brain activity is important to this forgetting mechanism. Too strong, and it will strengthen the memory; too weak, and you won’t change it, ” said Tracy Wang, lead author of the study. “Importantly, it’s the intention to forget that increases the activation of the memory, and when this activation hits the sweet spot at the appropriate level, that’s when it leads to later forgetting of that experience.” The researchers also found that participants were more likely to forget scenes than faces. “We’re learning how these mechanisms in our brain respond to different types of information, and it will take a lot of further research before we understand how to use our ability to forget,” said Lewis-Peacock. “Hopefully, we can find out how we process and get rid of those really strong, sticky emotional memories, which can have a powerful effect on our health and well-being.” 28. What remains a puzzle to researchers? A. How our memories can be strengthened. B. How our brains voluntarily forget something. C. What effect unwanted memories have on our brains. D. Whether our brains can voluntarily forget something. 29. Which of the following can best describe memories? A. Active. B. Lasting. C. Casual. D. Ridiculous. 30. What can we learn from the text? A. It requires less attention to forget than to remember. B. The more active the brain is, the faster it forgets. C Humans can’t keep memories under control. D.

C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了一项惊人发现——遗忘需要更多的脑力投入，及这背后的大脑运行机理和背后的医疗价值。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Decades of research has shown that we have the ability to forget something out of our own free will, but how our brains do that is still being questioned. (几十年的研究表明，我们有能力出于自己的自由意志忘记一些事情，但我们的大脑是如何做到这一点的仍在受到质疑。)”可知，几十年的研究表明我们有能力自动忘记某事，但是我们的大脑是如何做到的仍然是一个谜团。故选B项。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Memories are dynamic constructions of the brain that regularly get updated, adjusted and reorganized through experience. (记忆是大脑的动态结构，通过经验定期更新、调整和重组。)”可知，记忆是大脑的动态构建，可推知记忆是活跃的。故选A项。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中的“The researchers also found that participants were more likely to forget scenes than faces. (研究人员还发现，参与者更容易忘记场景而不是面孔。)”可知，研究人员发现被研究对象更容易忘记场景而非人脸。故选D项。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Choosing to forget something might take more mental effort than trying to remember it, researchers at the University of Texas discovered. (得克萨斯大学的研究人员发现，选择忘记某事可能比试图记住它需要更多的精神努力。)”和最后一段中的““We’re learning how these mechanisms in our brain respond to different types of information,   and it will take a lot of further research before we understand how to use our ability to forget,” said Lewis-Peacock. “Hopefully,   we can find out how we process and get rid of those really strong, sticky emotional memories, which can have a powerful effect on our health and well-being.” (刘易斯·皮科克说：“我们正在学习大脑中的这些机制是如何对不同类型的信息做出反应的，在我们了解如何利用我们的遗忘能力之前，还需要进行大量的进一步研究。”。“希望我们能找出我们如何处理和摆脱那些非常强烈、粘稠的情感记忆，这些记忆会对我们的健康和幸福产生强大的影响。”)”可知，本文主要是为了说明忘记某事比记住某事更费脑。故选C项。 D The new radio programme from Self-help expert Glennon Doyle unexpectedly disturbed me. In a session of We Can Do Hard Things, she focuses on boundaries and their importance to our mental happiness. I heartily agree with her, because saying a polite but firm “no” is one of the basics for a happy life. I was, however, interested when she raised the idea that perhaps, as well as learning when to confirm our boundaries, we also need to stretch them. When does a boundary become a cage that locks us away? Isn’t it always the case that just as you think you’ve got an area of life nailed; somebody comes along to show you that that’s not the case? As I listened, I started to see boundaries that might cause more problems than they were solving. There was the work boundary that said that unless a project fell exactly into my topics, I wouldn’t take it-which meant that I turned down work that was otherwise interesting and rewarding. There was the boundary that said I wasn’t to buy anything until I’d reached my savings goal-which resulted in me having to restart my laptop 20 times a day. And then there was a boundary around relationships that set out exactly how I should be treated and what I wanted in them. Helpful to some extent, it blocked me from allowing someone to express their love for me, even if it wasn’t quite what I had predicted. Had I been doing boundaries wrong all the time? Did I need to figure them all out again? I’ve spent the past few weeks looking at the boundaries I’ve secretly put in place, and I’ve let myself lower some that have been my protection over the years. Then I’ve come to the conclusion that, when it comes to boundaries, I’m a beginner again, and that’s fine. In fact, being back at the beginning is a blessing because it means there are still lessons to be learned and adventures to be had and that is something for which I can only be grateful. 32. What has really interested the author in Glennon Doyle’s programme? A. The importance of confirming our boundaries. B. The benefits of boundaries to our happiness. C. The urgency of maintaining our boundaries. D. The necessity of reassessing our boundaries. 33. Which statement on boundaries will the author agree with? A. We should favour savings goals over boundaries. B. Boundaries tend to keep us from potential friends C. Boundaries are very likely to relieve boredom at work. D. We should stick to boundaries despite inconvenience. 34. How did the author feel about boundaries after the? A. Relaxed. B. Depressed. C. Pressured. D. Amused. 35. What is probably the best title for the passage? A. Just when you think you’ve got things sorted. B. Just where you believe there’s no way out C. How can we live a life without boundaries? D. How do we become victims of boundaries? 【答案】32. D 33. B 34. A 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是议论文。文章主要围绕人不能只做自己喜欢的习惯的事情，我们要突破局限，找到新的自我。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“I was, however, interested when she raised the idea that perhaps, as well as learning when to confirm our boundaries, we also need to stretch them.(然而，我感兴趣是当她提出那个观点的时候，她说也许，当我们学习确认我们的界限的时候，我们也需要延展它们)”可知，作者对GlennonDoyle的节目感兴趣的地方是要重新评估我们的界限。故选D。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“Helpful to some extent, it blocked me from allowing someone to express their love for me, even if it wasn’t quite what I had predicted.(这在一定程度上是有帮助的，它阻止了我让别人向我表达他们的爱，即使这不是我所预料的。)”可知在作者看来，设置界限会阻止我们交到可能的朋友。故选B。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Then I’ve come to the conclusion that, when it comes to boundaries, I’m a beginner again, and that’s fine.(然后我得出结论，当涉及到界限的时候，我又变成了一个初学者，这很好。)”可知，在调整了之后，作者觉得很放松。故选A。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段的“I was, however, interested when she raised the idea that perhaps, as well as learning when to confirm our boundaries, we also need to stretch them.(然而，当她提出这样一个想法时，我很感兴趣:也许，除了学习何时确定我们的界限之外，我们还需要拓展它们。)”可知，作者是想通过一个节目引出话题：我们不能局限在一定的界限之内，我们要突破局限找到新的自我。A选项“就在你以为一切都搞定的时候”，让读者反思，是否要按照界定好的去做，是否要突破，符合文章意思，可作为最好的题目，故选A。 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。 Shannan Hearne's oldest dream was to own a ranch(牧场).

One of those people, now 15, was born without fingers on one hand. His grandmother brought him to Sun and Moon for riding lessons Learning to control a horse with one hand helped him better manage his disability, and he grew closer to his grandmother over their shared love of horses. “____39____And I believe this is especially true for children or anyone who struggles with any sort of psychological issues," Hearne says. Another boy became selectively silent because of his autism (自闭症).____40____ Taking the reins (缰绳), literally, helped him do so in his daily life too. “I could see how the empowerment of riding was helping him feel once again in control of the world around him," says Hearne.

When they began the journey to adopt their first daughter, Cloe, years ago, Josephine and Scott Lansing never imagined they would eventually have a house full of girls. The couple later adopted Josie in 2011 and Annabelle in 2012. For the Lansing family, adoption is about giving every child the opportunity to grow healthily in a loving home. Scott and Josephine are great advocates for each of their daughters, and they make sure each child knows how special and loved they are. In February of 2009, Bethany entered into the care of Child Protective Services due to her mother's inability to care for her and her brothers and sisters. Her experiences made it very difficult for her to trust adults, since she learned from an early age that she could only count on herself. She lived in a shelter for several months before moving into a foster home (寄养家庭). Still, Bethany struggled to understand why she had been taken away from the only family she had known. In May of 2010, Bethany was placed at Helping Hand Home for Children's Residential Treatment Center, where her journey to returning to normal finally began. With the patience, support, and guidance of the Helping Hand Home staff, Bethany developed healthy, appropriate ways to express her emotions. She was taught to respect herself, and she learned that it was okay to trust others. When Bethany was introduced to the Lansing family in June of 2012, the meeting did not go as smoothly as everyone hoped. Bethany's insecurities resurfaced due to the suffering she experienced at such a young age, and she refused to talk or even look at the Lansings at their first meeting. 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。 But the Lansing family had no intention to give up. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Later, Bethany experienced a lot of exciting things. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】But the Lansing family had no intention to give up. They were patient with Bethany and explained that they wanted to get to know her better and hoped she would one day be part of their family. The other girls shared their stories of coming from the foster care system, and they told her how scared they had been about meeting a new family too and how happy they were now. Soon Bethany’s anxiety eased, and she agreed to go and see her new home. (77 words) Later, Bethany experienced a lot of exciting things. From many hours spent at the neighborhood pool to her first trip to the beach, Bethany now lived the life every child deserves. The Lansings celebrated Bethany’s 11th birthday with a superb cruise.

Alderbrook Resort & Spa Less than a two-hour drive from Seattle, located on the edge of the Hood Canal, a nature-filled retreat (休养处) is waving. Seals slide along the waters of the Alderbrook dock (码头), playing a game of “Go Fish” with dive-bombing seabirds. As you sit on the shaking dock just minutes after arrival, you are already in a quieter world. Suncadia Resort A mountain escape awaits just over the pass on I-90, about 80 miles east of Seattle. The resort’s annual Winterfest lasts through January 2, full of holiday celebrations and winter recreation, from cross-county skiing and snow mobile tours to ice skating and snowshoe tours. Willows Lodge Twenty miles from Seattle, this luxury lodge is nestled into the centre of Woodinville Wine Country. Situated on five landscaped acres that border the Sammamish River, the Northwest-style lodge is within walking distance of more than 35 tasting rooms.

For the typical UR students, the Java’s on Gibbs St. has become a place of solace during stressful testing times, and on more heartwarming occasions, a social hub. Slowly approaching its thirties, Java’s has enjoyed a good reputation in its local. In 1978, Java Joe created a coffee farm in Hawaii. With great dedication to his craft, the great master of coffee beans made his way to Rochester then. In 1992, Joe decided to start selling coffee at the Public Market and opened up a store on Gibbs St. with the help of Michael Calabrese. This location, next to the Eastman School of Music, is the first of many shops Java Joe opened. As a lover of the blues, Joe enthusiastically decorated this flagship store with artistic and musical influence. After Gibbs location, Joe planted Java Joe’s where he was first starting out — in the Public Market. Later, Java Joe’s moved to a nearby building, and received a name change — Java’s at the Market Coffee Roasters. This building served as a place where those who visited would often catch a glimpse of Joe skillfully roasting his coffee beans in the dancing flames and cultivating his drinks with care. However, in 1997 he licensed “Java Joe’s” to Calabrese, who then renamed the Gibbs Cafe to what we know today — Java’s Café. Joe remained in the Public Market location until he was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Joe died of lung cancer at 68. The influence he had poured into his business is well-known and highly regarded. He has won many awards in his life. The next time you head down to Gibbs St. for your morning cup, keep in mind the extraordinary story of how that cup came to be, all thanks to Java Joe. 24. What does the underlined word “solace” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Tension. B. Anxiety. C. Safety. D. Relief. 25. What is true about Java’s Café on Gibbs St.? A. The name of the shop keeps unchanged up to now. B. It was popular with the locals and students as well. C. Java Joe had the ownership of the shop in 1997. D. It is the flagship store and has won several awards. 26 What is special about Java’s at the Market Coffee Roasters? A. Joe’s specially-made coffee beans. B. Its super-quality coffee and service. C. Joe’s demonstration of coffee-making skills. D. Its attraction to the music school students. 27. What is the text mainly about? A. The popularity of Java’s Cafe. B. The development of the coffee industry. C. The contribution Joe made to Rochester. D. The founder and development of Java’s Cafe. C Choosing to forget something might take more mental effort than trying to remember it, researchers at the University of Texas discovered. Their findings suggest that in order to forget an unwanted experience, more attention should be focused on it. “Decades of research has shown that we have the ability to forget something out of our own free will, but how our brains do that is still being questioned. Once we can figure out how memories are weakened and think out ways to control this, we can design treatment to help people rid themselves of unwanted memories,” said Jarrod Lewis-Peacock, the study’s senior author. Memories are dynamic constructions of the brain that regularly get updated, adjusted and reorganized through experience. The brain is constantly remembering and forgetting information, and much of this happens automatically during sleep. Their findings not only confirmed that humans have the ability to control what they forget, but also that successful intentional forgetting requires more activity than what is required to remember. “A proper level of brain activity is important to this forgetting mechanism. Too strong, and it will strengthen the memory; too weak, and you won’t change it, ” said Tracy Wang, lead author of the study. “Importantly, it’s the intention to forget that increases the activation of the memory, and when this activation hits the sweet spot at the appropriate level, that’s when it leads to later forgetting of that experience.” The researchers also found that participants were more likely to forget scenes than faces. “We’re learning how these mechanisms in our brain respond to different types of information, and it will take a lot of further research before we understand how to use our ability to forget,” said Lewis-Peacock. “Hopefully, we can find out how we process and get rid of those really strong, sticky emotional memories, which can have a powerful effect on our health and well-being.” 28. What remains a puzzle to researchers? A. How our memories can be strengthened. B. How our brains voluntarily forget something. C. What effect unwanted memories have on our brains. D. Whether our brains can voluntarily forget something. 29. Which of the following can best describe memories? A. Active. B. Lasting. C. Casual. D. Ridiculous. 30. What can we learn from the text? A. It requires less attention to forget than to remember. B. The more active the brain is, the faster it forgets. C. Humans can’t keep memories under control. D. Humans forget faces less easily than scenes. 31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. What it takes to forget an unwanted experience B. Strong memories have a great influence on health C. Forgetting uses more brain power than remembering D. How to train our brains to voluntarily forget something D The new radio programme from Self-help expert Glennon Doyle unexpectedly disturbed me. In a session of We Can Do Hard Things, she focuses on boundaries and their importance to our mental happiness. I heartily agree with her, because saying a polite but firm “no” is one of the basics for a happy life. I was, however, interested when she raised the idea that perhaps, as well as learning when to confirm our boundaries, we also need to stretch them. When does a boundary become a cage that locks us away? Isn’t it always the case that just as you think you’ve got an area of life nailed; somebody comes along to show you that that’s not the case? As I listened, I started to see boundaries that might cause more problems than they were solving. There was the work boundary that said that unless a project fell exactly into my topics, I wouldn’t take it-which meant that I turned down work that was otherwise interesting and rewarding. There was the boundary that said I wasn’t to buy anything until I’d reached my savings goal-which resulted in me having to restart my laptop 20 times a day. And then there was a boundary around relationships that set out exactly how I should be treated and what I wanted in them. Helpful to some extent, it blocked me from allowing someone to express their love for me, even if it wasn’t quite what I had predicted. Had I been doing boundaries wrong all the time? Did I need to figure them all out again? I’ve spent the past few weeks looking at the boundaries I’ve secretly put in place, and I’ve let myself lower some that have been my protection over the years. Then I’ve come to the conclusion that, when it comes to boundaries, I’m a beginner again, and that’s fine. In fact, being back at the beginning is a blessing because it means there are still lessons to be learned and adventures to be had and that is something for which I can only be grateful. 32. What has really interested the author in Glennon Doyle’s programme? A. The importance of confirming our boundaries. B. The benefits of boundaries to our happiness. C. The urgency of maintaining our boundaries. D. The necessity of reassessing our boundaries. 33. Which statement on boundaries will the author agree with? A. We should favour savings goals over boundaries. B. Boundaries tend to keep us from potential friends C. Boundaries are very likely to relieve boredom at work. D. We should stick to boundaries despite inconvenience. 34. How did the author feel about boundaries after the? A. Relaxed. B. Depressed. C. Pressured. D. Amused. 35. What is probably the best title for the passage? A. Just when you think you’ve got things sorted. B. Just where you believe there’s no way out C. How can we live a life without boundaries? D. How do we become victims of boundaries? 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。 Shannan Hearne's oldest dream was to own a ranch(牧场).

When they began the journey to adopt their first daughter, Cloe, years ago, Josephine and Scott Lansing never imagined they would eventually have a house full of girls. The couple later adopted Josie in 2011 and Annabelle in 2012. For the Lansing family, adoption is about giving every child the opportunity to grow healthily in a loving home. Scott and Josephine are great advocates for each of their daughters, and they make sure each child knows how special and loved they are. In February of 2009, Bethany entered into the care of Child Protective Services due to her mother's inability to care for her and her brothers and sisters. Her experiences made it very difficult for her to trust adults, since she learned from an early age that she could only count on herself. She lived in a shelter for several months before moving into a foster home (寄养家庭). Still, Bethany struggled to understand why she had been taken away from the only family she had known. In May of 2010, Bethany was placed at Helping Hand Home for Children's Residential Treatment Center, where her journey to returning to normal finally began. With the patience, support, and guidance of the Helping Hand Home staff, Bethany developed healthy, appropriate ways to express her emotions. She was taught to respect herself, and she learned that it was okay to trust others. When Bethany was introduced to the Lansing family in June of 2012, the meeting did not go as smoothly as everyone hoped. Bethany's insecurities resurfaced due to the suffering she experienced at such a young age, and she refused to talk or even look at the Lansings at their first meeting. 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。 But the Lansing family had no intention to give up. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Later, Bethany experienced a lot of exciting things. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
