A
History books are filled with warriors (战士) — male warriors, that is. Less referenced are the women who took up spears, bows, swords, and clubs to fight. Here’s a look at some of history’s women warriors out of this world.
Mulan in ancient China
The Disney movie Mulan has received enormous success. Mulan’s story goes back to the sixth century and was written in the 11th-century “Ballad of Mulan”. In the eloquent poem, the girl took the place of her elderly father in the army, since he had no adult son, and she fought against invaders as a man for 12 years.
Boudicca: revenge against Rome
Boudicca the queen of the Iceni of East Anglia, Britain, did not set out to be a warrior. But after her husband, the Iceni ruler, died in 60/61AD, the Romans whipped her and her daughters, and she had no choice but to make a stand. Boudicca raised an army and destroyed Camulodunum, Londinium, and Verulamium of Rome.
Joan of Arc: soldier of God
At the height of the 15th-century Hundred Years’ War between France and England, a young peasant girl came to the rescue of France. Jeanne d’Arc (Joan of Arc) was just a teen when in 1429 she approached the dauphin Charles, the heir to the French throne who had yet to be crowned (为……加冕) (the English held Reims, France’s traditional coronation site). She was given permission to raise troops and ride forth. Joan and her troops liberated the besieged city of Orléans, clearing the way for Charles Ⅶ to be crowned at last, giving France a rightful king.
Tang Sai-er: rebel leader
During China’s 15th-century Ming Dynasty, Tang Sai-er, a young girl from Putai (present-day Shandong province), was taught martial arts by her father. Her world changed when she lost her parents, and then her husband, at a time when the emperor imposed hefty taxes and flood and drought ravaged the land. She raised a peasant army in 1420, successfully fighting Ming soldiers. In some accounts, she won one battle by creating a flying demon army out of paper dolls. At last she was defeated and fled, and was never found.

David Thompson sat on a hard bench behind the long narrow desk and watched the flies fly lazily in the sun. The drone of the younger boys reading letters and the older boys reciting Latin verbs made him sleepy. David had to force his eyes to stay open. He wanted to learn something new.
He looked up at the schoolmaster’s high desk in the front of the room. The new teacher, Mr. John Adams, was from Harvard College. David’s father had been impressed with him. The boys had already had several other teachers, but none of them seemed to inspire David. So far, there was nothing to show that this one was special, though he’d only been there two days.
“It’s too hot to sit and memorize lessons,” the schoolmaster said. “We’ll move outdoors for the next part of our lesson.” He led the group of boys into the schoolyard. “You younger boys, dig for grubs and beetles (幼虫和甲虫). Count their feet. See if you can describe their shells (壳).”
David watched the teacher surrounded by laughing young students. No one had ever used the schoolyard itself for a classroom. “What next?” he thought. Soon he didn’t have time to think about the younger boys, for he was running after butterflies and dragonflies himself.
David and his friends liked this new way of learning.
“It will be a clear night tonight. Go outside and look at the sky,” said the schoolmaster. “Look at the stars ad notice their brightness and the patterns they make. These patterns have names from Greek mythology (神话), names like Orion, Aries, and others. Tomorrow we will learn about the ancient stories on them.”
“How is the new schoolmaster?” asked David’s father that evening, when David announced he was going out to look at the sky.
“He’s different from any schoolmaster we’ve had,” David admitted. “He seems interested in everything around him, and he wants us to be curious too. He even used the schoolyard as a classroom.”
“So Mr. John Adams and his new ways make school useful to you after all,” joked David’s father.
“I believe he has,” said David. “I know I won’t forget the lessons he has taught us.”
4. What does the underlined word “drone” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Clear speaking voices. B. Low dull sounds.
C. Enthusiastic responses. D. High spirits.
5. Which statement shows that the new schoolmaster understood the children?
A. “It’s too hot to sit and memorize lessons…”
B. “See if you can describe their shells…”
C. “Go outside and look at the sky…”
D. “Tomorrow we will learn about the ancient stories…”
6. From paragraph 8, we can learn that .
A. David’s father had met the new schoolmaster
B. David had thought poorly of school before
C. David’s father was not satisfied with the new ways
D. David had shown his father his homework
7. What is the main idea of this story?
A. Science is all around us.
B. School provides us with the best education.
C. There is more than one way to learn.
D. Homework is an important part of education.
C
Superhighways of vessels (血管) beneath our skin transport blood and nutrients. These natural pathways expand like tree branches to help our body move food and oxygen to our organs. While our bodies naturally produce vessels, bioengineers are now crafting them in labs, using an unexpected material: ice.
The idea was inspired by the ice magic in the Disney movie Frozen, says Burak Ozdoganlar, a mechanical engineer at Carnegie Mellon University, “Frozen’s ice queen commands ice and snow — maybe we can too.” To make the vessels, the engineer first needed a template (模板) to build the tissue. “Originally, we were trying to do this with wax (蜡),” Ozdoganlar says. “But wax proved too soft. And it’s not necessarily biocompatible, or suitable for use in the body.” Then they thought of Elsa’s magic. Ice seemed like a good alternative for many reasons. It costs little and is readily available. And most importantly, since it’s nonpoisonous, the body won’t reject it.
Printing the ice template is simple. Engineers program the desired shape into a 3-D printer, which then drops water onto a -35°C surface to freeze it instantly. This process is repeated until the vessel’s shape is complete. Overall, it takes less than 30 seconds. Then the template is wrapped in gelatin (明胶), which becomes solid under ultraviolet light as the ice melts, leaving behind realistic-looking blood channels.
The team has tested the channels with lining cells of blood vessels. Those cells survived for two weeks a promising sign for future transplantation into humans. The new vessels might be tested with a drug being developed for use in people. Such tests could show how your body might react to the drug. “This is really a game-changer,” says Ozdoganlar.
“The new research is quite interesting and exciting,” says Warren Grayson, a biomedical engineer at Johns Hopkins University.“But it also has limitations. You can see that all these structures are pretty small.Their size is limited by the need for extreme cold. Larger structures would not stay cold enough due to heat transfer. This method may not transform the tissue engineering field, but it does provide another perspective for creating structures.”
8. What key advantage does ice offer over wax for the engineers’ project?
A. It’s cost-effective. B. It’s harmless to our body.
C. It’s easy to obtain. D. It’s environmentally friendly.
9. What happens to the ice template during the process of vessel making?
A. It solidifies the encasing gelatin. B. It is reshaped after its completion.
C. It becomes a part of the final vessel. D. It melts away with the channels remaining.
10. What does Warren Grayson think of the ice-vessel approach?
A. It marks a dramatic change. B. It serves as a practical solution.
C. It provides a new angle. D. It represents a notable innovation.
11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. From Frozen to Functional: Crafting Vessels from Ice
B. Vessel Building: Challenges and Advances in Materials
C. 3-D Printing: A Game Changer for Biological Engineering
D. Bringing Frozen to Life: Impacting Blood Flow with Ice
D
A team of AI researchers at Microsoft, working with colleagues from the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory(PNNL), has used AI to develop a battery that uses less lithium (锂).
Lithium batteries have become the industry standard for electronic devices and electric vehicles and are expected to play a major role in the change to green power. But lithium is expensive, which has led multiple teams across the globe to look for alternatives. In this new effort, the research team looked for ways to reduce the amount of lithium used in batteries.
This would normally take a long time because of the detailed approach required. To reduce the workload and the time needed to process millions of alternatives, the researchers turned to AI. Noting that AI applications are good at using massive amounts of data to learn how to do things, the researchers designed one that could study millions of materials that might be added to a lithium battery to replace some amount of the lithium and test the results for factors such as stability and how a battery using a given material would behave.
Using this approach, the research team reduced the list of possible alternatives to just a few hundred possibilities. They then turned to materials scientists at PNNL for advice on how to reduce the possibilities even further. The scientists suggested adding more specific screening criteria and more testing rounds. After adopting that advice, the team arrived at a promising alternative and an approach that involved replacing approximately half of the lithium atoms in a battery with sodium (钠) atoms.
After using the new approach to build a working battery, the researchers found it had lower conductivity (导电性) than needed — but they also believe that there is room for improvement. They plan to continue working on the approach and the process they used to find their solution, which they suggest could eventually solve other types of material processing problems.
12. Why did the research team want to develop a battery that uses less lithium?
A. To reduce carbon emissions. B. To meet the industry standard.
C. To decrease the cost of a battery. D. To generate electricity efficiently.
13. What do the underlined words “this approach” in paragraph 4 refer to?
A. Using AI to find possible materials. B. Adding other materials to a battery.
C Developing an application to collect data. D. Replacing lithium in a battery with sodium.
14. How did the research team finally find a promising alternative?
A. By seeking funding from PNNL. B. By asking experts for advice.
C. By turning to Microsoft for help. D. By cooperating with other scientists.
15. What is the existing challenge with the new approach?
A. It is less effective than expected. B. It costs too much time and money.
C. It occupies too much room. D. It processes at a lower speed.
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。
It is widely known that exercise brings many benefits: stronger muscles, increased energy, weight control and better sleep. ____16____ In fact, even exercising for the health of your mind alone is well worth doing.
According to Jack Raglin, a professor at Indiana University’s School of Public Health, exercise can increase positive emotions. ____17____ On the other hand, regular exercise can lead to long-term and continual improvements. Besides, exercise has been shown to be effective in treating clinical anxiety and people admitted to hospital with psychological disorders.
____18____ If your primary aim is to improve your mood, the standard for what counts as exercise is far lower than it is for weight loss. “Doing 15 to 20 minutes of aerobic exercise three times a week is where you will see the long-term benefits,” says Raglin.
When considering which exercise is best, Raglin and his fellow researchers compared aerobic and anaerobic forms of exercise. ____19____ Additionally, for relieving the physical tension that often comes with stress, both forms worked equally well, and a combination of the two was also found to be effective.
In terms of whether you should stick to a routine or switch it up, Raglin suggests that the most effective exercise program is one that you can maintain. He sees two types of people: those who are content with running the same route every day and those who prefer to shake it up. “Both of the options can work well,” says Raglin. “Just take care, if you are used to doing one exercise, in switching to another. ____20____”
Exercise is a cure for negative emotions. So, let’s get moving and dance our way to endless happiness!
A. The longer you exercise, the better you’ll feel.
B. Occasional exercise can improve your mood for several hours.
C. However, its psychological benefits have been underestimated.
D. They found the former was more effective at reducing levels of anxiety.
E. The effect applies regardless of the specific form of exercise you choose.
F. Allow your body time to adapt, and listen to it if you feel any sharp discomfort.
G. The good news is that you don’t need to be very active to feel psychological benefits.

I hurried into Lehman’s grocery store. I was there to buy my grandmother’s hearing aid batteries. More importantly, this was my chance to visit the love of my life — Artie.
I ran to the shelf he was on, and there he was, right where I last saw him: a grey little guy with a large mouth that fit perfectly over my shoulder as I hugged him tightly. I adored that stuffed dolphin. As I held Artie, Mrs. Lehman, who had always been kind to me, passed by and smiled knowingly, “Hugging that dolphin again, huh?”
But my brother, Rick, noticed I took a long time in Lehman’s, saying, “You are a thirteen-year-old girl now. You are supposed to be quicker. Next time, I will go with you.” Oh, great! My brother, Rick. He always laughed at me.
But I wouldn’t give up. So, as we walked into the store, I suggested to Rick that he get the batteries, since he was older. Then I headed towards Artie. There he was, awaiting me. I grabbed him and hugged him tightly. Just then, I heard Rick saying, “What in the world are you doing?”
“This is Artie,” I said. “I hug him every single time I come here. I can’t afford it so I hope he doesn’t get sold because I just love this little guy.” The look on Rick’s face was unreadable, but I knew deep down that he wasn’t going to make fun of me. In fact, a few times when he accompanied me to Lehman’s, he said, “go on and hug your dolphin, if it’s still there.”
One day, Rick was not home, so I went to Lehman’s alone. I went straight to Artie’s shelf. But he was gone. I searched every shelf but couldn’t find him. Suddenly, a voice from the counter interrupted my search.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为 150 左右;

【答案】1. B 2. A 3. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章聚焦历史上常被忽略的女性战士群体,介绍中国古代的花木兰、英国的布狄卡、法国的圣女贞德以及中国明朝的唐赛儿四位女性的生平与战斗经历,展现她们在不同时代背景下拿起武器战斗的故事。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Mulan in ancient China”部分中的“In the eloquent poem, the girl took the place of her elderly father in the army, since he had no adult son, and she fought against invaders as a man for 12 years.(在这首文辞优美的诗里,花木兰因父亲没有成年儿子,便替年迈的父亲从军,她以男子身份抗击外敌,征战了12 年)”可知,木兰因为父亲没有成年儿子,所以代替父亲从军。故选B。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Boudicca: revenge against Rome”部分中“Boudicca raised an army and destroyed Camulodunum, Londinium, and Verulamium of Rome.(随后,布狄卡组建了一支军队,摧毁了罗马的卡姆洛杜努姆、伦迪尼姆和维鲁拉米姆三座城市)”可知,布狄卡战争的直接结果是摧毁了罗马三座城市。故选A。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Joan of Arc: soldier of God”部分中“At the height of the 15th-century Hundred Years’ War between France and England, a young peasant girl came to the rescue of France. Jeanne d’Arc (Joan of Arc) was just a teen when in 1429 she approached the dauphin Charles, the heir to the French throne who had yet to be crowned (为……加冕) (the English held Reims, France’s traditional coronation site).(15世纪英法百年战争的鼎盛时期,一位年轻的农家少女挺身而出,拯救了法国。1429年,让娜・达克(即圣女贞德)年仅十几岁,她主动拜见了法国王储查理——当时他尚未加冕(因为英国人控制了法国传统的加冕地兰斯))”以及“Tang Sai-er: rebel leader”部分中“During China’s 15th-century Ming Dynasty, Tang Sai-er, a young girl from Putai (present-day Shandong province), was taught martial arts by her father.(在15世纪中国明朝时期,蒲台(今山东省)少女唐赛儿自幼随父习武)”和“She raised a peasant army in 1420, successfully fighting Ming soldiers.(1420年,她组建农民起义军屡败明军)”可知,贞德(Joan of Arc)在1429年时是“a teen(青少年)”,获准组建军队,唐赛儿(Tang Sai-er)在1420年组建农民军,且文章中称她为“young girl”。由此可知,她们都在年轻时组建军队。故选C。

Superhighways of vessels (血管) beneath our skin transport blood and nutrients. These natural pathways expand like tree branches to help our body move food and oxygen to our organs. While our bodies naturally produce vessels, bioengineers are now crafting them in labs, using an unexpected material: ice.
The idea was inspired by the ice magic in the Disney movie Frozen, says Burak Ozdoganlar, a mechanical engineer at Carnegie Mellon University, “Frozen’s ice queen commands ice and snow — maybe we can too.” To make the vessels, the engineer first needed a template (模板) to build the tissue. “Originally, we were trying to do this with wax (蜡),” Ozdoganlar says. “But wax proved too soft. And it’s not necessarily biocompatible, or suitable for use in the body.” Then they thought of Elsa’s magic. Ice seemed like a good alternative for many reasons. It costs little and is readily available. And most importantly, since it’s nonpoisonous, the body won’t reject it.
Printing the ice template is simple. Engineers program the desired shape into a 3-D printer, which then drops water onto a -35°C surface to freeze it instantly. This process is repeated until the vessel’s shape is complete. Overall, it takes less than 30 seconds. Then the template is wrapped in gelatin (明胶), which becomes solid under ultraviolet light as the ice melts, leaving behind realistic-looking blood channels.
The team has tested the channels with lining cells of blood vessels. Those cells survived for two weeks, a promising sign for future transplantation into humans. The new vessels might be tested with a drug being developed for use in people. Such tests could show how your body might react to the drug. “This is really a game-changer,” says Ozdoganlar.
“The new research is quite interesting and exciting,” says Warren Grayson, a biomedical engineer at Johns Hopkins University.“But it also has limitations. You can see that all these structures are pretty small.Their size is limited by the need for extreme cold. Larger structures would not stay cold enough due to heat transfer. This method may not transform the tissue engineering field, but it does provide another perspective for creating structures.”
8. What key advantage does ice offer over wax for the engineers’ project?
A. It’s cost-effective. B. It’s harmless to our body.
C. It’s easy to obtain. D. It’s environmentally friendly.
9. What happens to the ice template during the process of vessel making?
A. It solidifies the encasing gelatin. B. It is reshaped after its completion.
C. It becomes a part of the final vessel. D. It melts away with the channels remaining.
10. What does Warren Grayson think of the ice-vessel approach?
A. It marks a dramatic change. B. It serves as a practical solution.
C. It provides a new angle. D. It represents a notable innovation.
11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. From Frozen to Functional: Crafting Vessels from Ice
B. Vessel Building: Challenges and Advances in Materials
C. 3-D Printing: A Game Changer for Biological Engineering
D. Bringing Frozen to Life: Impacting Blood Flow with Ice
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。介绍了生物工程师以冰为材料制作血管的研究。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段““But wax proved too soft. And it’s not necessarily biocompatible, or suitable for use in the body.” Then they thought of Elsa’s magic. Ice seemed like a good alternative for many reasons. It costs little and is readily available. And most importantly, since it’s nonpoisonous, the body won’t reject it. (“但事实证明蜡太软了,而且它不一定具有生物相容性,不适合在体内使用。”之后他们想到了艾尔莎的魔法。冰似乎是一个很好的选择,原因有很多。它花费很少,而且很容易获得。最重要的是,因为它无毒,身体不会排斥它)”可知,相比蜡,冰对人体无害是关键优势。故选B项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Then the template is wrapped in gelatin (明胶), which becomes solid under ultraviolet light as the ice melts, leaving behind realistic-looking blood channels. (然后模板被明胶包裹,冰融化时,明胶在紫外线下凝固,留下外观逼真血管通道)”可知,制作血管的过程中,冰模板会融化,同时留下血管通道。故选D项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“This method may not transform the tissue engineering field, but it does provide another perspective for creating structures. (这种方法可能不会改变组织工程领域,但它确实为构建结构提供了另一个视角)”可知,Warren Grayson认为这种冰制血管方法提供了新的思路。故选C项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。第一段介绍了人体血管的运输功能,引出生物工程师用冰在实验室进行制作血管的研究; 第二段说明了研究灵感源于《冰雪奇缘》,解释选择冰而非蜡的原因; 第三段介绍了冰模板制作血管的具体流程;第四段说明了该方法的细胞测试结果,并提到新血管可用于药物测试,研究者认为这是颠覆性进展;第五段引用专家观点,指出该方法的局限性,但认可其为组织工程提供了新视角。由此可知,文章以《冰雪奇缘》的灵感切入,完整介绍了用冰制作血管的研究——材料选择、制作流程、测试结果、专家评价。“From Frozen to Functional: Crafting Vessels from Ice (从《冰雪奇缘》到实用:用冰制作血管)” 覆盖了文章的灵感来源、核心研究内容,最适合作为文章标题。故选A项。

A team of AI researchers at Microsoft, working with colleagues from the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory(PNNL), has used AI to develop a battery that uses less lithium (锂).
Lithium batteries have become the industry standard for electronic devices and electric vehicles and are expected to play a major role in the change to green power. But lithium is expensive, which has led multiple teams across the globe to look for alternatives. In this new effort, the research team looked for ways to reduce the amount of lithium used in batteries.
This would normally take a long time because of the detailed approach required. To reduce the workload and the time needed to process millions of alternatives, the researchers turned to AI. Noting that AI applications are good at using massive amounts of data to learn how to do things, the researchers designed one that could study millions of materials that might be added to a lithium battery to replace some amount of the lithium and test the results for factors such as stability and how a battery using a given material would behave.
Using this approach, the research team reduced the list of possible alternatives to just a few hundred possibilities. They then turned to materials scientists at PNNL for advice on how to reduce the possibilities even further. The scientists suggested adding more specific screening criteria and more testing rounds. After adopting that advice, the team arrived at a promising alternative and an approach that involved replacing approximately half of the lithium atoms in a battery with sodium (钠) atoms.
After using the new approach to build a working battery, the researchers found it had lower conductivity (导电性) than needed — but they also believe that there is room for improvement. They plan to continue working on the approach and the process they used to find their solution, which they suggest could eventually solve other types of material processing problems.
12. Why did the research team want to develop a battery that uses less lithium?
A. To reduce carbon emissions. B. To meet the industry standard.
C. To decrease the cost of a battery. D. To generate electricity efficiently.
13. What do the underlined words “this approach” in paragraph 4 refer to?
A. Using AI to find possible materials. B. Adding other materials to a battery.
C. Developing an application to collect data. D. Replacing lithium in a battery with sodium.
14. How did the research team finally find a promising alternative?
A. By seeking funding from PNNL. B. By asking experts for advice.
C. By turning to Microsoft for help. D. By cooperating with other scientists.
15. What is the existing challenge with the new approach?
A. It is less effective than expected. B. It costs too much time and money.
C. It occupies too much room. D. It processes at a lower speed.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. A

It is widely known that exercise brings many benefits: stronger muscles, increased energy, weight control and better sleep. ____16____ In fact, even exercising for the health of your mind alone is well worth doing.
According to Jack Raglin, a professor at Indiana University’s School of Public Health, exercise can increase positive emotions. ____17____ On the other hand, regular exercise can lead to long-term and continual improvements. Besides, exercise has been shown to be effective in treating clinical anxiety and people admitted to hospital with psychological disorders.
____18____ If your primary aim is to improve your mood, the standard for what counts as exercise is far lower than it is for weight loss. “Doing 15 to 20 minutes of aerobic exercise three times a week is where you will see the long-term benefits,” says Raglin.
When considering which exercise is best, Raglin and his fellow researchers compared aerobic and anaerobic forms of exercise. ____19____ Additionally, for relieving the physical tension that often comes with stress, both forms worked equally well, and a combination of the two was also found to be effective.
In terms of whether you should stick to a routine or switch it up, Raglin suggests that the most effective exercise program is one that you can maintain. He sees two types of people: those who are content with running the same route every day and those who prefer to shake it up. “Both of the options can work well,” says Raglin. “Just take care, if you are used to doing one exercise, in switching to another. ____20____”
Exercise is a cure for negative emotions. So, let’s get moving and dance our way to endless happiness!
A. The longer you exercise, the better you’ll feel.
B. Occasional exercise can improve your mood for several hours.
C. However, its psychological benefits have been underestimated.
D. They found the former was more effective at reducing levels of anxiety.
E. The effect applies regardless of the specific form of exercise you choose.
F. Allow your body time to adapt, and listen to it if you feel any sharp discomfort.
G. The good news is that you don’t need to be very active to feel psychological benefits.

57. 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 hurried into Lehman’s grocery store. I was there to buy my grandmother’s hearing aid batteries. More importantly, this was my chance to visit the love of my life — Artie.
I ran to the shelf he was on, and there he was, right where I last saw him: a grey little guy with a large mouth that fit perfectly over my shoulder as I hugged him tightly. I adored that stuffed dolphin. As I held Artie, Mrs. Lehman, who had always been kind to me, passed by and smiled knowingly, “Hugging that dolphin again, huh?”
But my brother, Rick, noticed I took a long time in Lehman’s, saying, “You are a thirteen-year-old girl now. You are supposed to be quicker. Next time, I will go with you.” Oh, great! My brother, Rick. He always laughed at me.
But I wouldn’t give up. So, as we walked into the store, I suggested to Rick that he get the batteries, since he was older. Then I headed towards Artie. There he was, awaiting me. I grabbed him and hugged him tightly. Just then, I heard Rick saying, “What in the world are you doing?”
“This is Artie,” I said. “I hug him every single time I come here. I can’t afford it so I hope he doesn’t get sold because I just love this little guy.” The look on Rick’s face was unreadable, but I knew deep down that he wasn’t going to make fun of me. In fact, a few times when he accompanied me to Lehman’s, he said, “go on and hug your dolphin, if it’s still there.”
One day, Rick was not home, so I went to Lehman’s alone. I went straight to Artie’s shelf. But he was gone. I searched every shelf but couldn’t find him. Suddenly, a voice from the counter interrupted my search.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为 150 左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
It was Mrs. Lehman herself.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
To my surprise, I found a box lying on my bed.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】It was Mrs. Lehman herself. She leaned over the counter, her eyes crinkling with warmth. “Looking for your little friend, dear? A young man bought him yesterday. Said something about ‘saving him from shelf limbo’.” My heart sank. Before I could ask more, she added, “He left this note for you.” Hand trembling, I unfolded the paper: “Check your bed at noon. — R.” Glancing at the clock — 11:55 a.m. — I bolted home, confusion and hope tangled in my chest.
To my surprise, I found a box lying on my bed. A familiar floppy fin peeked through the ribbon. Tears blurred my vision as I cradled Artie, his soft fur pressing against my cheek. Beneath him lay another note: “Even pirates need first mates. Don’t drown him in your tears. — Captain Rick.” Laughter bubbled through my sniffles. From the doorway, Rick grumbled, “You’re gonna wear his stitching out,” but his ears flushed pink. That night, Artie guarded my pillow, while Rick’s snores echoed from the next room — a gruff lullaby of unexpected love.
