The topic “EDG wins” had been viewed more than 2.63 billion times as of press on Sina Weibo, ranking the top trending topic for a long time. With the popularity of digital technology, new forms of cultural exchanges have been appearing, of which e-sports are the most popular. Unlike texts and videos, e-sports go beyond the barriers of language and are understandable around the world. E-sports mostly appeal to those in their early 20s, as shown by the carnival (狂欢) of college students. That in turn makes them a good bridge of communication between young Chinese people and their counterparts (对应的人) around the world. More importantly, the e-sports industry is sustainable in spreading Chinese culture, as the large audiences mean huge commercial potential. In 2020 alone, the sales revenue of the domestic e-sports industry exceeded 278.69 billion yuan, and involved 280,000 enterprises which in turn created over 10 million jobs. According to a media report, nearly 95 percent of graduates from e-sports majors at the Communication University of China in Nanjing, succeeded in finding a job after graduation this year, with 62 percent of them devoted to the e-sports industry, including video game clubs, game design companies and game competition operation companies. The inclusion of e-sports in major sporting events has been a much-discussed topic in recent years. With more Chinese gaming clubs and teams emerging, the industry is expected to further prosper and continue spreading Chinese culture to the world. 24. What did people on Chinese social media cheer for? A. Eight e-sports would be included in Asian Games. B. China’s e-sports industry was recognized by the world. C. EDG won the League of Legends World Championship. D. The 19th Asian Games were announced to be held in China. 25. What do we know about e-sports from paragraph 2? A.

A 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国电竞产业的发展及其带来的经济利益。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段内容“Two days after eight e-sports (电子竞技) games were officially announced to be included in the 19th Asian Games, China’s Edward Gaming (EDG) team earned its first League of Legends World Championship title with a 3-2 win over South Korea in a tough battle on November 7th, immediately drawing cheers from people around the country. The topic “EDG wins” had been viewed more than 2.63 billion times as of press on Sina Weibo, ranking the top trending topic for a long time.(在第19届亚运会正式宣布将包括8场电子竞技比赛后的两天，中国的EDG战队在11月7日的一场硬仗中以3-2战胜韩国，赢得了其第一个英雄联盟全球总决赛冠军，立刻赢得了全国人民的欢呼。截至新浪微博发稿时，“EDG赢”话题已被浏览超过26.3亿次，长期以来一直是热门话题)”可知，因为EDG赢得了其第一个英雄联盟全球总决赛冠军，所以在中国的新浪微博等社交媒体上得到人们的欢呼。由此可知，中国社交媒体上的人们欢呼是因为EDG赢得了英雄联盟全球总决赛冠军。故选C项。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段关键句“Unlike texts and videos, e-sports go beyond the barriers of language and are understandable around the world. E-sports mostly appeal to those in their early 20s, as shown by the carnival (狂欢) of college students. That in turn makes them a good bridge of communication between young Chinese people and their counterparts (对应的人) around the world.(与文本和视频不同，电子竞技超越了语言障碍，全世界都可以理解。大学生的狂欢表明，电子竞技对20岁出头的人最具吸引力。这反过来又使它们成为中国年轻人与世界各地年轻人之间的良好的沟通的桥梁)”可知，电子竞技对20岁出头的年轻人最具吸引力，并且不存在语言障碍，因此它可以成为中国年轻人与世界各地年轻人之间的良好的沟通的桥梁。由此可知，我们从第2段中可以了解到，电子竞技加强了世界各地年轻人之间的联系。故选D项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段关键句“More importantly, the e-sports industry is sustainable in spreading Chinese culture, as the large audiences mean huge commercial potential.

According to a government white paper, TCM has been introduced in 183 countries and regions around the world. Westerners' understanding of TCM, however, may be limited to acupundure，cupping and massage (针灸，拔罐和按摩). For instance, the purple, injury-like marks left on US.swimmer Michael Phelps' back from cupping for the purpose of relaxing his muscles and reducing pain became the center of attention during the Rio Olympics in 2016. As a matter of fact, Chinese herbs play a more important role in getting rid of diseases and keeping the body in good condition in the TCM treatment system than physical treatment.It is therefore disheartening to know that-while 103 World Health Organization member countries have given approval to the practice of acupuncture，not many recognize Chinese herbal medicine TCM falls far behind Western medicine owing partly to the slow development of Chinese herbs. Herbs, are made into pills,powder and soup, and the kind of herbs uscd1 their quality and quantity, and the processing of the ingredients jointly determine the effectiveness of the prescription. Compared with Western medicine, which has standardized drug production processes and treatment methods, TCM lacks standardization, with the chemical composition and functions of its medicines being unclear and their effects being unstable. Fortunately,standardization has improved in recent decades, with an increasing number of factories producing patented TCM drugs. Another factor that has prevented the development of TCM prescription drugs is the lack of creativity, While Western medicine-making companies come up with new products every year, TCM drug producers tend to make medicines according to prescriptions handed down from the past. Chinese chemist Tu Youyour's winning the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for her research into malaria(疟疾）treatment may drive creativity to some extent in China's TCM industry. However, the current state of affairs cannot be changed within a short time. 28. The author mentions the example of Michael Phelps in order to show . A. he was injured in his swimming.

Crying in front of her empty food bowl at dinner time clearly indicates she’s at risk of starvation. Other times, though, her meows are a complete and total mystery. That’s where Sergei Dreizin and Mark Boyes, computer scientists at Akvelon, a software engineering company based in Bellevue, Washington, say they can help. They are the brains behind the MeowTalk app, which aims to “give cat owners the best tools available” for interpreting their pet’s needs. When Boyes and Dreizin were looking for data to inform their new app, they came across 2019 research that revealed cat meows contain certain shared characteristics. The study authors then built a computer program to analyze audio recordings of 21 adult cats meowing. The MeowTalk founders used these audio recordings of tens of thousands of meows to develop their computer models, which is fueled by artificial intelligence. And it worked. 2021 study found MeowTalk can classify nine feline (猫科的) phrases with 90 percent accuracy. The free app records your feline’s meows and translates them into a small range of phrases, such as “I’m annoyed.” and “Feed me!” Users can rate the accuracy of MeowTalk’s translations, which further improves the computer model. Launched in November 2020, the app has been downloaded over 20 million times, and Dreizin estimates that the program has analyzed over a billion meows to date. “We’re the largest depositors of meows in this galaxy,” he quips. The app is part of an expanding suite of technologies designed to help us communicate with our furry friends. Another is FluentPet, which trains your pet to press buttons to communicate a need; for instance, a cat can learn to press a button that says the word “play”. Cat behaviorist and communication expert Charlotte de Mouzon isn’t convinced of these products’ accuracy, but strengthening your relationship with your cat is always a wise goal. “If people play with the app, maybe they will become more attentive to their cats,” says de Mouzon, of Paris Nanterre University. 32 How can computer scientists at Akvelon help cat owners? A. By making cats’ needs fulfilled. B. By getting cats rid of starvation. C. By filling the empty food bowls. D. By solving the mysteries of cats’ meows. 33. What can be inferred from paragraph 5? A. Users think the app very helpful. B. Users can help to promote the app. C. Dreizin thinks the app is the most accurate. D. The program has analyzed billions of meows. 34 What’s Charlotte’s attitude to this kind of apps? A. Doubtful. B. Conservative. C. Positive. D. Negative. 35. What is the purpose of the the text? A. To comment on two apps. B. To compare two similar apps. C. To introduce the new technology. D. To recommend an app to cats’ owners. 【答案】32. D 33. B 34. A 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种可以解读猫的语言，了解猫的需求，帮助猫的主人与其交流的新的应用程序，并提到了另一个相似技术的训练宠物与人类交流的程序，旨在让人们了解这种新的技术。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“They are the brains behind the MeowTalk app, which aims to “give cat owners the best tools available” for interpreting their pet’s needs.(他们是MeowTalk应用程序的幕后推手，该应用程序旨在“为猫主人提供最好的工具”，帮助他们理解宠物的需求。)”可知，Akvelon的计算机科学家们是通过帮助猫主人了解猫的需求，解开猫叫的奥秘来帮助猫主人的。故选D。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“Users can rate the accuracy of MeowTalk’s translations, which further improves the computer model.(用户可以评价MeowTalk翻译的准确性，这进一步改进了计算机模型。)”可知，用户的反馈可以帮助改进和提升这款应用程序。故选B。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Cat behaviorist and communication expert Charlotte de Mouzon isn’t convinced of these products’ accuracy, but strengthening your relationship with your cat is always a wise goal.(猫的行为学家和交流专家Charlotte de Mouzon不相信这些产品的准确性，但加强你和你的猫的关系总是一个明智的目标。)”可知，Charlotte虽然认为应该加强猫主人和猫之间的关系，但他不相信这种应用程序，对此持怀疑态度。故选A。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段“The app is part of an expanding suite of technologies designed to help us communicate with our furry friends. Another is FluentPet, which trains your pet to press buttons to communicate a need;(这款应用是一套不断扩展的技术的一部分，旨在帮助我们与毛茸茸的朋友交流。另一个是FluentPet，它训练你的宠物按下按钮来表达需求；)”和文章内容可知，本文主要介绍了一款能够帮助人类了解宠物需要的应用程序，以及另一个相似技术的应用程序，旨在让人们了解这种新的技术。故选C。 第二节 七选五(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) Some people say that you can’t teach an old dog new tricks. But it doesn’t have to be that way. A new study published in Human Development points out that using a childlike way of learning can help people of any age take on and deal with new difficult tasks. ____36____ Go outside your comfort zone. As adults, we tend to use similar skills day in and day out: We take jobs in fields we’re already good at, drive on the same roads to the same places, and fall into routines we’re comfortable with. ____37____ Changing to something more difficult may have more cognitive benefits. ____38____ A fear of making mistakes is another reason why adults are so slow to learn new things; if we try and fail, we can face criticism, lose money, or get fired. That’s why it’s important to build up a support network of people — at work and at home — who allow you to make mistakes and learn from them. Make a serious commitment (承诺) and don’t give up. ____39____ If you can afford it, spending money on a new goal — for example, booking a trip to Rome to practice your Italian — might also make it harder to just give up. Learn more than one thing at once. We tend to pay attention to one hobby or one skill. But dividing that time and energy into three or four areas will stretch your brain in all different directions. ____40____ For example, maybe you started learning a new language last year, and this year you add singing lessons, and next year you try something else. You can add things gradually to what you can handle. A Ask your friends and family for help. B. The following ways will do the trick. C. Telling friends about your new goal can help keep you motivated. D. Surround yourself with encouraging people and no fear for mistakes. E. That doesn’t mean you should start all the new hobbies all at once, though. F. But all this similar routine limits the parts of the brain that we’re using regularly. G. So feeling comfortable can reduce stress and make you happier and more productive. 【答案】36. B 37. F 38. D 39. C 40. E 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了成年人可以通过模仿儿童的学习方式（如走出舒适区、克服错误恐惧、多任务学习等）来掌握新技能。 【36题详解】 由上文“Some people say that you can’t teach an old dog new tricks. But it doesn’t have to be that way.

Adam, an 18-year-old college student, dragged himself home. He had been working at KFC for over a month that summer vacation. Entering his room, Adam found his younger brother Bill sitting on the edge of his bed with an uneasy expression on his face. “Sorry, Adam. I … I did something wrong,” Bill sprang up and said nervously. “What is it?” “This afternoon I sneaked (溜) out for a ride on your motorcycle and accidentally hit our neighbor Osman Brook’s car. I was so scared and I … I hurried home in panic.” “Is the car seriously damaged?” “The left headlight got broken.” “It’s truly your fault and it’s really dangerous to ride a motorcycle at your age. Besides, it’s illegal,” Adam raised his voice, obviously annoyed. Hearing this, Bill lowered his head and bit his lips hard. “Anyway, it’s no use crying over spilt milk. I will deal with it tomorrow. Now you go to bed and have a good sleep.” The next morning when Adam got up, Bill was still sleeping soundly. Adam was more determined about what he ought to do as an elder brother. After breakfast, Adam took out all the money he had earned and went out of the house with it. In the yard he saw his motorcycle, on whose side the scratches (划痕) were clearly visible. Adam shook his head and sighed slightly. Then he squared his shoulders and quickened his pace to Osman’s house. When he arrived, he was welcomed by Osman’s wife Mary, who told him that Osman had gone to the garage to have his car repaired. “I have something important to tell him. Can I wait until he comes back?” Adam requested eagerly. “Of course. He should be home soon,” Mary invited Adam in, served him a cup of coffee and began chatting with him. After half an hour, the door opened and in came Osman. Having said hello to each other, Osman and Adam both sat down on the sofa. 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。 Adam cleared his throat and began to speak. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Just then, there came a knock at the door. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version Adam cleared his throat and began to speak. “Mr. Brook, I’m here to make an apology. Yesterday afternoon my brother Bill damaged your car and ran away in panic. We are awfully sorry for that.” “Oh, I see. But it’s no big deal,” Osman smiled. Then Adam drew out the money from his pocket and said to Osman with sincerity, “This is all the money I have. I wonder if it can pay for your loss.” However, Osman insisted that it was only minor damage and declined to take it. Just then, there came a knock at the door. Osman went to answer it, only to find Bill standing outside. “Morning, Mr. Brook. I … I’ve come to say sorry for …” Bill stammered. But Osman laughed and let him in. The two brothers were both surprised and glad to see each other. Osman gave them a thumbs-up and praised them happily, “Good boys, I truly appreciate your honesty. Just forget about my car.” Whatever the boys said, Osman wouldn’t take the money. Finally, he accepted their suggestion that they make it up to him by doing some work in his garden. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了在肯德基打暑假工的亚当深夜回家后得知弟弟比尔偷开他的摩托车还把邻居奥斯曼的汽车的左前灯撞坏了，尽管亚当很生气，但是第二天一早带着打工赚的钱就去奥斯曼家道歉，他正要掏钱赔偿时，比尔也来了，奥斯曼很欣赏兄弟俩的诚实，没有收钱，但是接受了他们在他家花园里干点活来补偿他的损失的建议。 【详解】 1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“亚当清了清嗓子，开始说话。”可知，第一段可描写亚当为弟弟的过错向奥斯曼道歉，并愿意赔偿，但是奥斯曼认为没有必要赔偿了。 ②由第二段首句内容“正在这时，传来了敲门声。”可知，第二段可描写比尔也来道歉，奥斯曼很欣赏兄弟俩的诚实，坚决不收钱，但是接受了两人在花园里干点活来补偿他的损失的建议。 2.续写线索：亚当道歉并赔偿——奥斯曼拒绝赔偿——比尔上门道歉——奥斯曼欣赏两人的诚实——奥斯曼拒绝接受赔偿但接受帮干园艺活的建议 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.道歉：make an apology/apologize/say sorry ②.取出：draw out/take out ③.拒绝：decline/refuse politely 情绪类 ①.非常抱歉：be awfully sorry/feel most regretful ②.惊慌地：in panic/in alarm 【点睛】[高分句型1].

The topic “EDG wins” had been viewed more than 2.63 billion times as of press on Sina Weibo, ranking the top trending topic for a long time. With the popularity of digital technology, new forms of cultural exchanges have been appearing, of which e-sports are the most popular. Unlike texts and videos, e-sports go beyond the barriers of language and are understandable around the world. E-sports mostly appeal to those in their early 20s, as shown by the carnival (狂欢) of college students. That in turn makes them a good bridge of communication between young Chinese people and their counterparts (对应的人) around the world. More importantly, the e-sports industry is sustainable in spreading Chinese culture, as the large audiences mean huge commercial potential. In 2020 alone, the sales revenue of the domestic e-sports industry exceeded 278.69 billion yuan, and involved 280,000 enterprises which in turn created over 10 million jobs. According to a media report, nearly 95 percent of graduates from e-sports majors at the Communication University of China in Nanjing, succeeded in finding a job after graduation this year, with 62 percent of them devoted to the e-sports industry, including video game clubs, game design companies and game competition operation companies. The inclusion of e-sports in major sporting events has been a much-discussed topic in recent years. With more Chinese gaming clubs and teams emerging, the industry is expected to further prosper and continue spreading Chinese culture to the world. 24.

C Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is gaining global popularity. According to a government white paper, TCM has been introduced in 183 countries and regions around the world. Westerners' understanding of TCM, however, may be limited to acupundure，cupping and massage (针灸，拔罐和按摩). For instance, the purple, injury-like marks left on US.swimmer Michael Phelps' back from cupping for the purpose of relaxing his muscles and reducing pain became the center of attention during the Rio Olympics in 2016. As a matter of fact, Chinese herbs play a more important role in getting rid of diseases and keeping the body in good condition in the TCM treatment system than physical treatment.It is therefore disheartening to know that-while 103 World Health Organization member countries have given approval to the practice of acupuncture，not many recognize Chinese herbal medicine TCM falls far behind Western medicine owing partly to the slow development of Chinese herbs. Herbs, are made into pills,powder and soup, and the kind of herbs uscd1 their quality and quantity, and the processing of the ingredients jointly determine the effectiveness of the prescription. Compared with Western medicine, which has standardized drug production processes and treatment methods, TCM lacks standardization, with the chemical composition and functions of its medicines being unclear and their effects being unstable. Fortunately,standardization has improved in recent decades, with an increasing number of factories producing patented TCM drugs. Another factor that has prevented the development of TCM prescription drugs is the lack of creativity, While Western medicine-making companies come up with new products every year, TCM drug producers tend to make medicines according to prescriptions handed down from the past. Chinese chemist Tu Youyour's winning the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for her research into malaria(疟疾）treatment may drive creativity to some extent in China's TCM industry. However, the current state of affairs cannot be changed within a short time. 28. The author mentions the example of Michael Phelps in order to show . A. he was injured in his swimming. B. cupping is a kind of important TCM treatment. C. westerners know a little about TCM. D. westerners attach great importance to TCM. 29. Why don't some member countries of WIIO recognize Chinese herbal medicine? A. Because Chinese herbs can get rid of diseases B. Because they only approve the practice of acupuncture C. Because western medicine 15 more effective D. Because medicine made out or Chinese herbs develops slowly 30. Compared with Western medicine，what is the main weak point of TCM ? A. The methods of processing herbs. B. The effectiveness of prescription. C. Lacking in standardization. D. Its unstable functions. 31. The lack of creativity in TCM refers to the fact that . A. medicine-making companies lack creativity. B. prescriptions are got from the past. C. Western companies are more experienced. D. medicine-making companies lack driving force D Sometimes, what my seven-year-old tabby cat Ophelia wants is obvious. Crying in front of her empty food bowl at dinner time clearly indicates she’s at risk of starvation. Other times, though, her meows are a complete and total mystery. That’s where Sergei Dreizin and Mark Boyes, computer scientists at Akvelon, a software engineering company based in Bellevue, Washington, say they can help. They are the brains behind the MeowTalk app, which aims to “give cat owners the best tools available” for interpreting their pet’s needs. When Boyes and Dreizin were looking for data to inform their new app, they came across 2019 research that revealed cat meows contain certain shared characteristics. The study authors then built a computer program to analyze audio recordings of 21 adult cats meowing. The MeowTalk founders used these audio recordings of tens of thousands of meows to develop their computer models, which is fueled by artificial intelligence. And it worked. 2021 study found MeowTalk can classify nine feline (猫科的) phrases with 90 percent accuracy. The free app records your feline’s meows and translates them into a small range of phrases, such as “I’m annoyed.” and “Feed me!” Users can rate the accuracy of MeowTalk’s translations, which further improves the computer model. Launched in November 2020, the app has been downloaded over 20 million times, and Dreizin estimates that the program has analyzed over a billion meows to date. “We’re the largest depositors of meows in this galaxy,” he quips. The app is part of an expanding suite of technologies designed to help us communicate with our furry friends. Another is FluentPet, which trains your pet to press buttons to communicate a need; for instance, a cat can learn to press a button that says the word “play”. Cat behaviorist and communication expert Charlotte de Mouzon isn’t convinced of these products’ accuracy, but strengthening your relationship with your cat is always a wise goal. “If people play with the app, maybe they will become more attentive to their cats,” says de Mouzon, of Paris Nanterre University. 32. How can computer scientists at Akvelon help cat owners? A. By making cats’ needs fulfilled. B. By getting cats rid of starvation. C. By filling the empty food bowls. D. By solving the mysteries of cats’ meows. 33. What can be inferred from paragraph 5? A. Users think the app very helpful. B. Users can help to promote the app. C. Dreizin thinks the app is the most accurate. D. The program has analyzed billions of meows. 34. What’s Charlotte’s attitude to this kind of apps? A. Doubtful. B. Conservative. C. Positive. D. Negative. 35. What is the purpose of the the text? A. To comment on two apps. B. To compare two similar apps. C. To introduce the new technology. D. To recommend an app to cats’ owners. 第二节 七选五(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) Some people say that you can’t teach an old dog new tricks. But it doesn’t have to be that way. A new study published in Human Development points out that using a childlike way of learning can help people of any age take on and deal with new difficult tasks. ____36____ Go outside your comfort zone. As adults, we tend to use similar skills day in and day out: We take jobs in fields we’re already good at, drive on the same roads to the same places, and fall into routines we’re comfortable with. ____37____ Changing to something more difficult may have more cognitive benefits. ____38____ A fear of making mistakes is another reason why adults are so slow to learn new things; if we try and fail, we can face criticism, lose money, or get fired. That’s why it’s important to build up a support network of people — at work and at home — who allow you to make mistakes and learn from them. Make a serious commitment (承诺) and don’t give up. ____39____ If you can afford it, spending money on a new goal — for example, booking a trip to Rome to practice your Italian — might also make it harder to just give up. Learn more than one thing at once. We tend to pay attention to one hobby or one skill. But dividing that time and energy into three or four areas will stretch your brain in all different directions. ____40____ For example, maybe you started learning a new language last year, and this year you add singing lessons, and next year you try something else. You can add things gradually to what you can handle. A. Ask your friends and family for help. B. The following ways will do the trick. C. Telling friends about your new goal can help keep you motivated. D. Surround yourself with encouraging people and no fear for mistakes. E. That doesn’t mean you should start all the new hobbies all at once, though. F. But all this similar routine limits the parts of the brain that we’re using regularly. G. So feeling comfortable can reduce stress and make you happier and more productive. 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Growing up, Stephanie Laska never ___41___, preferring music class to P.

He had been working at KFC for over a month that summer vacation. Entering his room, Adam found his younger brother Bill sitting on the edge of his bed with an uneasy expression on his face. “Sorry, Adam. I … I did something wrong,” Bill sprang up and said nervously. “What is it?” “This afternoon I sneaked (溜) out for a ride on your motorcycle and accidentally hit our neighbor Osman Brook’s car. I was so scared and I … I hurried home in panic.” “Is the car seriously damaged?” “The left headlight got broken.” “It’s truly your fault and it’s really dangerous to ride a motorcycle at your age. Besides, it’s illegal,” Adam raised his voice, obviously annoyed. Hearing this, Bill lowered his head and bit his lips hard. “Anyway, it’s no use crying over spilt milk. I will deal with it tomorrow. Now you go to bed and have a good sleep.” The next morning when Adam got up, Bill was still sleeping soundly. Adam was more determined about what he ought to do as an elder brother. After breakfast, Adam took out all the money he had earned and went out of the house with it. In the yard he saw his motorcycle, on whose side the scratches (划痕) were clearly visible. Adam shook his head and sighed slightly. Then he squared his shoulders and quickened his pace to Osman’s house. When he arrived, he was welcomed by Osman’s wife Mary, who told him that Osman had gone to the garage to have his car repaired. “I have something important to tell him Can I wait until he comes back?” Adam requested eagerly. “Of course. He should be home soon,” Mary invited Adam in, served him a cup of coffee and began chatting with him. After half an hour, the door opened and in came Osman. Having said hello to each other, Osman and Adam both sat down on the sofa. 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。 Adam cleared his throat and began to speak. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Just then, there came a knock at the door. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
