A book review of the Adventures of Tom Sawyer
The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is a lively story full of fun.
Tom, the hero of the book, lives with his aunt Polly. He is a lively and clever boy. He doesn’t like people telling him 1 to do, so he always gets into trouble. He and his best friend, Huck Finn, run away to an island in the middle of the Mississippi River. Tom has more 2 because a bad man named Injun Joe is looking for him. Later, Tom escapes (runs away) from a cave with another friend, Becky. He also finds Injun Joe’s treasure box and takes it 3 .
My favourite part of the book is when Tom and Hunk start 4 adventures on the island in the Mississippi River. At first, they are 5 . But when they hear that everyone thinks they are dead, they feel very sorry, so they come back home. They hide and watch for a time when they see their family and neighbours 6 to their funeral in the church. Then, Tom and Huck 7 appear. Everyone is surprised to see them at first, but very pleased to find that they are alive.
The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is a great book. It is more than an adventure story. Mark Twain wrote it in 1876. It describes people’s lives in the southern 8 of American at that time. It tells how young people grow, how people love each other and how bad people 9 for their actions. It is written in everyday English, and the dialogues sound especially real. Today, it is still read and loved 10 people all over the world, and it is thought to be one of the greatest American stories.

Everyone wants to be happy, but what is the real secret of happiness? Scientists have studied this question for many years. 1
Help Others.
2 When you do something nice for someone, your brain produces a chemical (化学物质) called dopamine (多巴胺) , which makes you feel good. Even small acts of kindness, like helping a classmate with homework or smiling at a stranger, can bring you happiness.
Be Thankful.
Another way to be happy is to show thanks to what you have. You can write down three things you are thankful for every day, such as a sunny day, a good meal, or time with friends. Studies tell us that people who often show thanks are usually happier.
3
People who have strong connections with family and friends are often happier than those who don’t. Talking, laughing, and sharing your feelings with them can make you feel loved and supported.
Enjoy the Little Things.
Happiness doesn’t always come from big achievements. 4 Listening to your favorite song, playing with a pet, or enjoying a warm cup of tea can all bring joy to your life.
A.Share everything with loved ones.
B.Here are some of their findings.
C.Spend time with friends and family.
D.Sometimes, it’s the small things that matter most.

4.根据“Happiness doesn’t always come from big achievements.”可知,此处强调小事情也很重要,选项D“有时候,往往是一些小事才最重要。”符合语境,故选D。

When we sang in the arena (舞台), the audience screamed and applauded. For me, happiness is doing something that I love.

8.句意:突然,有一个声音说:“来吧,爱,我会带你走。”根据语境和提示词可知,此处需要用副词修饰整个句子,表示“突然地”,因此应该填“sudden”的副词形式“Suddenly”,且位于句首首字母大写。故填Suddenly。
9.句意:那是一位老妇人。根据语境和句子结构可知,此处表示泛指“一位老妇人”,且“old”以元音音素开头,因此应该用不定冠词“an”。故填an。
10.句意:爱感到很幸运,甚至忘了问她的名字。根据语境和提示词可知,此处描述的是过去发生的事情,因此应该用一般过去时,谓语动词“forget”的过去式为“forgot”。故填forgot。

A book review of the Adventures of Tom Sawyer
The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is a lively story full of fun.
Tom, the hero of the book, lives with his aunt Polly. He is a lively and clever boy. He doesn’t like people telling him 1 to do, so he always gets into trouble. He and his best friend, Huck Finn, run away to an island in the middle of the Mississippi River. Tom has more 2 because a bad man named Injun Joe is looking for him. Later, Tom escapes (runs away) from a cave with another friend, Becky. He also finds Injun Joe’s treasure box and takes it 3 .
My favourite part of the book is when Tom and Hunk start 4 adventures on the island in the Mississippi River. At first, they are 5 . But when they hear that everyone thinks they are dead, they feel very sorry, so they come back home. They hide and watch for a time when they see their family and neighbours 6 to their funeral in the church. Then, Tom and Huck 7 appear. Everyone is surprised to see them at first, but very pleased to find that they are alive.
The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is a great book. It is more than an adventure story. Mark Twain wrote it in 1876. It describes people’s lives in the southern 8 of American at that time. It tells how young people grow, how people love each other and how bad people 9 for their actions. It is written in everyday English, and the dialogues sound especially real. Today, it is still read and loved 10 people all over the world, and it is thought to be one of the greatest American stories.
提示词:adventure冒险; funeral葬礼; church教堂
六、阅读还原。
Everyone wants to be happy, but what is the real secret of happiness? Scientists have studied this question for many years. 1
Help Others.
2 When you do something nice for someone, your brain produces a chemical (化学物质) called dopamine (多巴胺) , which makes you feel good. Even small acts of kindness, like helping a classmate with homework or smiling at a stranger, can bring you happiness.
Be Thankful.
Another way to be happy is to show thanks to what you have. You can write down three things you are thankful for every day, such as a sunny day, a good meal, or time with friends. Studies tell us that people who often show thanks are usually happier.
3
People who have strong connections with family and friends are often happier than those who don’t. Talking, laughing, and sharing your feelings with them can make you feel loved and supported.
Enjoy the Little Things.
Happiness doesn’t always come from big achievements. 4 Listening to your favorite song, playing with a pet, or enjoying a warm cup of tea can all bring joy to your life.
A.Share everything with loved ones.
B.Here are some of their findings.
C.Spend time with friends and family.
D.Sometimes, it’s the small things that matter most.
E.One of the easiest ways to feel happy is to help others.

How do teenagers define (定义) happiness? Three students share their stories.
Wang Hongyue,14, Sichuan
Born in a family of four, I’m loved by the people around me. My parents give me a lot of support. I especially like my brother. He often makes food and accompanies (陪伴) me to the zoo on weekends. I still remember when I was eight, I had a bad stomachache. My parents were not at home, so it was my brother who comforted me and registered (挂号) at the hospital. For me, happiness has nothing to do with money. Having a loving, caring, and close-knit family is enough.
Ren Xuyang,14, Guangdong
I feel happy while trying to help others. Last year, I visited a special school for students with weak sight (弱视) or hearing loss. It is difficult for them to write and read pinyin, so I taught them how to pronounce and write each word over and over. For over 3 hours, we repeated the same work, but didn’t feel tired. On the contrary, I was in high spirits. As an old saying goes, “The rose is in her hand, the flavor in mine.”
Zhan Danyuan,15, Shanxi
I feel happy when I hang out with my friends and do something together. Last winter, I, along with three friends, performed an original song—A Nameless Story. At first, we wrote down how we felt about each other. Then we went to the corridor and practiced our tune. Every night by the dim light, we corrected our mistakes. Our efforts finally paid off. When we sang in the arena (舞台), the audience screamed and applauded. For me, happiness is doing something that I love.

B.Because her brother always takes her to the zoo on weekdays.

3.What does the underlined sentence “I was in high spirits” mean in English?
A.It means I was very interested in it. B.It means I was cheerful.
C.It means I was busy doing it. D.It means I was good at it.
4.What can you learn from Zhan Danyuan?
