On teaching days, he leaves his apartment in Beijing’s Haidian District before sunrise and travels over thirty kilometers to Minzu University’s Fengtai campus. Although he moves slowly, he maintains an active schedule, balancing his work as a teacher, writer, and musician. Levine often explains that these roles help him stay connected to the society he regards as home. His interest in China began while he was working for a U.S. labor organization dedicated to improving conditions for low-income workers. As a sociologist, he examined how different countries addressed social inequality and was particularly impressed by China’s progress. Later, a job offer from a college in Huai’an convinced him to take a decisive step and begin a new chapter. He still remembers his first evening in Huai’an, when the streets were crowded with bicycles, a scene that signaled how different his new environment would be. Over the years, he traveled to every provincial-level region in China and delivered lectures at more than eighty universities. In 2007, Levine moved to Beijing. His small apartment is filled with plants, guitars, books about China, and souvenirs from his travels — items that record the life he has built on his own. Although his family lives far away, he insists that he does not feel lonely, largely because of the friendships he has formed with colleagues, neighbors, and students. A key moment in his life came when he met Fu Han, a piano teacher who later became his musical partner. Hoping to present a more complete picture of China to the world, they began writing songs together. A spring festival he spent with her family in rural Hubei left him particularly moved and inspired one of his songs about the warmth he experienced there. In 2016, Levine received Chinese permanent residence, which strengthened his sense of belonging. Today, well known in his neighborhood, he is often greeted by children who call him “Grandpa Santa.” 4. Why did Levine move to China at first? A. To take up a post. B. To further his study. C. To find a well-paid job. D. To explore a college. 5. How does Levine mainly keep loneliness away while living far from his family? A. By writing songs about home. B. By traveling to various places. C. By occupying himself in work. D. By building social connections. 6. What does Levine’s cooperation with Fu Han imply? A. It encouraged him to pursue music full time. B. It pushed him to learn traditional instruments. C. It helped him become an established performer. D. It allowed him to share local stories effectively. 7. What is the text mainly about? A. A sociologist’s fight for workers. B. A foreigner’s life rooted in China. C. A foreign teacher’s route to fame. D. A professor’s music achievements. 【答案】4. A 5. D 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这篇文章是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了77岁的美国教授马克·莱文在中国近二十年的生活与工作经历，展现了一位外国人在中国扎根并找到归属感的生活历程。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“Later, a job offer from a college in Huai’an convinced him to take a decisive step and begin a new chapter. (后来，淮安一所大学的工作邀请让他迈出了决定性的一步，开启人生新篇章。)”可知，这位教授最初决定来中国是因为获得了一份大学的工作邀请。故选A项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“Although his family lives far away, he insists that he does not feel lonely, largely because of the friendships he has formed with colleagues, neighbors, and students. (尽管家人远在大洋彼岸，但他坚持表示自己并不孤单，这主要得益于他与同事、邻居和学生建立的友谊。)”可知，他远离家人却不感到孤独的主要原因是建立了广泛的社交关系来摆脱孤独。故选D项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段第二句“Hoping to present a more complete picture of China to the world, they began writing songs together. (为了向世界展现更全面的中国，他们开始一起创作歌曲。)”可推知，他与Fu Han的合作旨在通过音乐有效分享中国本土的故事与见闻。故选D项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。文章从这位教授来华缘由、工作教学、日常生活、社交关系、音乐创作及获得永久居留权等多个方面，全面描述了他如何在中国扎根、融入并找到归属感的过程，核心主题是一位外国人在中国深入生活的故事。故选B项。 C Math anxiety has become a common psychological condition among students around the world. Students in countries with higher levels of math anxiety tend to achieve lower math grades, according to a study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences on Feb 15. Math anxiety — a negative emotional reaction to the core subject — causes fear, physical suffering and behavior problems among young pupils, according to a University of Cambridge study. In ordinary life, many people experience some degree of discomfort when confronted with a math problem, ranging from mild tension to strong fear. Some people also experience physical symptoms such as sweaty palms or a racing heart. They may then try to avoid numbers-related situations, meaning they are held back from pursuing careers related to the subject, such as science, technology or engineering, according to The Guardian. Relief comes from the fact that those with math anxiety aren’t destined to be bad at math. “If a child has math anxiety don’t assume that they’ re not good at math. They may have had a really bad experience with math.” Daniel Ansuri, the senior author of the study told The London Free Press. “Students with math anxiety are not cognitively (认知地) disadvantaged.” Also, there are ways to manage your math-related stress. If you’re stressed before a math exam, spend a few minutes exploring those feelings before the exam begins. “It’s about making sure you’re interpreting your feelings correctly,” Sian Beilock, a cognitive scientist told the BBC. “A fast heartbeat and sweaty palms don’t necessarily mean you will fail.” A little math anxiety could be taken as a positive challenge to overcome. Just like many people get stage fright before delivering a speech, this nervous energy can help to motivate, according to Ian Lyons, a psychologist at Georgetown University. Math doesn’t come easy, no matter how clever you are. Leonardo da Vinci, the famous Italian artist, was a huge fan of mathematics. But his notebooks show that Da Vinci couldn’t do fractions (分数). He felt stressed to grasp, for instance, that dividing a number by one-quarter is the same as multiplying by four, resulting in a higher number than the original. 8. What do we know about math anxiety? A. It is common merely among students. B. It leads to people struggling in their career. C. It can cause physical and emotional discomfort. D. People with math anxiety are often bad at maths. 9. Which of the following statements will Daniel Ansari agree with according to his study? A. Math anxiety may contribute to better grades. B. Bad experience with math can cause cognitive disadvantages. C. Math anxiety is not related to the ability to solve math problems. D. Students with math anxiety may indeed experience lower math scores. 10. How should you deal with the stress related to math according to the article? A. Learn to make sense of your feelings. B. Avoid thinking about failures in math. C. Take all nervous energy as a challenge. D. Pay little attention to your math anxiety. 11 Why is Leonardo da Vinci’s story mentioned? A. To suggest a way to solve math anxiety. B. To show that math anxiety is very common. C. To explain why math is a difficult subject to learn. D. To show it’s not enjoyable for da Vinci to learn math. 【答案】8. C 9. C 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是篇说明文。文章主要分析了在各国学生中间普遍存在的数学焦虑的现象，并给出了相应的应对方法的建议。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Math anxiety — a negative emotional reaction to the core subject — causes fear, physical suffering and behavior problems among young pupils, according to a University of Cambridge study.(剑桥大学的一项研究表明，数学焦虑是一种对核心科目的负面情绪反应，会导致小学生恐惧、身体痛苦和行为问题。)”可知，数学焦虑会引起身体和情绪的不适。故选C。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“If a child has math anxiety, don’t assume that they’ re not good at math. They may have had a really bad experience with math.” Daniel Ansuri, the senior author of the study told The London Free Press. “Students with math anxiety are not cognitively (认知地) disadvantaged.(“如果一个孩子有数学焦虑症，不要认为他们不擅长数学。他们可能有过非常糟糕的数学经历。”该研究的资深作者丹Daniel Ansuri告诉伦敦自由出版社。“患有数学焦虑症的学生在认知上并不处于劣势。”)”可知，Daniel认为有数学焦虑症的孩子，并不一定不擅长学数学，他们在数学认知上没有劣势，说明他认为数学焦虑症与解决数学问题的能力是无关的。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“If you’re stressed before a math exam, spend a few minutes exploring those feelings before the exam begins. “It’s about making sure you’re interpreting your feelings correctly,”(如果你在数学考试前感到压力很大，那就在考试开始前花几分钟探索一下这些感觉。“关键是要确保你正确地诠释了自己的感受。”)”可知，学会探索自己的感受，正确理解这些感受，可以减轻数学焦虑。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Math doesn’t come easy, no matter how clever you are. Leonardo da Vinci, the famous Italian artist, was a huge fan of mathematics. But his notebooks show that Da Vinci couldn’t do fractions (分数).(无论你有多聪明，数学都不容易。列奥纳多·达·芬奇，著名的意大利艺术家，是数学的狂热爱好者。但是他的笔记显示达芬奇不会做分数。)”和下文对达芬奇的描述可知，文中提到达芬奇，是为了表明即使像达芬奇这样聪明的人，学习数学也很困难，从而解释了为什么数学是一门很难学的学科。故选C。 D The idea of space-based solar power (SBSP) — using satellites to collect energy from the sun and “beam” it to collection points on Earth — has been around since at least the late 1960s. Despite its huge potential, the concept has not gained sufficient attention due to cost and technological hurdles. We already harvest energy from the sun. It’s collected directly through what we generally call solar power. This includes different technologies such as photovoltaics (PV, 光伏发电) and solar-thermal energy. The sun’s energy is also gathered indirectly: wind energy is an example of this, because breezes are generated by uneven heating of the atmosphere by the sun. But these green forms of power generation have limitations. They take up lots of space on land and are limited by the availability of light and wind. For example, solar farms don’t collect energy at night and gather less of it in winter and on cloudy days. PV in orbit won’t be limited by the onset of night. A satellite in geostationary orbit (GEO) — a circular orbit around 36,000 km above the Earth — is exposed to the Sun for more than 99% of the time during a whole year. This allows it to produce green energy 24/7. Transferring energy collected in space to the ground requires wireless power transmission. Using microwaves for this minimizes the energy lost in the atmosphere, even through cloudy skies. The microwave beam sent by the satellite will be focused towards the ground station, where antennas (天线) change the electromagnetic waves (电磁波) back into electricity. The ground station will need to have a diameter (直径) of 5 km, or more at high latitudes. However, this is still smaller than the areas of land needed to produce the same amount of power using solar or wind. An SBSP mission will be challenging — and risks still need to be fully assessed. While the electricity produced is fully green, the impact of the pollution from hundreds of heavy-lift launches is difficult to predict. Additionally, controlling such a large structure in space will require substantial amounts of fuel, which involves engineers working with sometimes very poisonous chemicals. The challenge of building platforms like this in space may seem frightening, but space-based solar power is technologically practicable. To be economically workable, it requires large-scale engineering, and therefore long-term and decisive commitment from governments and space agencies. But with all that in place, SBSP could make a fundamental contribution to delivering net zero by 2050 with sustainable, clean energy from space. 12. What is a common limitation of traditional solar and wind energy? A. They rely on the use of poisonous chemicals. B. They are difficult to transfer over long distances. C. They are affected by the availability of light and wind. D. They require large-scale engineering for construction. 13. Why does the author mention the diameter of the ground station in paragraph 4? A. To emphasize the high cost of building space-based solar power facilities. B To prove the complexity of changing electromagnetic waves into electricity. C. To illustrate the immaturity of the technology for wireless power transmission. D. To show higher efficiency of space-based solar power than using solar or wind. 14. Which of the following is ONE risk of space-based solar power (SBSP)? A. The large structure in space. B. Challenging mission of SBSP. C. Excessive land use for ground stations. D. Unpredictable pollution from launches. 15. According to the passage, the future development of SBSP mainly depends on ________. A. the governments’ and space agencies’ long-term and firm support B. the reduction of the poisonous chemicals used in space engineering C. the steady improvement of wireless power transmission technology D. the assessment of the impact of heavy-lift launches on the environment 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了基于太空的太阳能发电（SBSP）的原理、优势、挑战及发展前景。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第二段中“But these green forms of power generation have limitations. They take up lots of space on land and are limited by the availability of light and wind. (但这些绿色发电形式有其局限性。它们占用大量陆地空间，并受到光照和风力的限制。)”可知，传统太阳能和风能的共同局限性是它们受到光照和风力可用性的影响。故选C。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。 根据第四段中“However, this is still smaller than the areas of land needed to produce the same amount of power using solar or wind. (然而，这仍然比使用太阳能或风能产生相同电量所需的土地面积要小。)”可知，作者提到地面站的直径是为了表明基于太空的太阳能比使用太阳能或风能效率更高。故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第五段中“While the electricity produced is fully green, the impact of the pollution from hundreds of heavy-lift launches is difficult to predict. (虽然产生的电力是完全绿色的，但数百次重型发射造成的污染影响难以预测。)”可知，基于太空的太阳能（SBSP）的一个风险是发射带来的不可预测的污染。故选D。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。 根据最后一段中“To be economically workable, it requires large-scale engineering, and therefore long-term and decisive commitment from governments and space agencies. (为了在经济上可行，它需要大规模的工程，因此需要政府和航天机构的长期和坚定承诺。)”可知，根据文章，SBSP的未来发展主要取决于政府和航天机构的长期和坚定支持。故选A。 第二节（共5小题，每小题2.5分，共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。 Learning how to apologize is similar to learning any new behavior.

Now, I was an excellent swimmer. Yet, a few months ago, things were different. And I had to thank her for helping me. I was always afraid of water. This fear could not be explained, but I knew that the moment I stepped near any body of water, my legs would turn to jelly. I would imagine myself drowning in the water. That was why I had never gone into a swimming pool until swimming became a school requirement. My school wanted all pupils to pass a swimming test, and if they could not, then they would have to attend weekly swimming lessons in school, which sent fright down my spine (脊柱). Thus, my parents signed me up for swimming lessons at the pool near my house. I had to attend those weekly lessons, and each one was great torture (折磨) for me. I was naturally awkward, and my fear of water did not help at all. Every lesson, I would be spending my time thrashing (拍打) about in the water while my classmates would be swimming countless laps effortlessly. How was I going to pass the test at this rate?I was discouraged. In my swimming class, there was an exceptionally athletic girl. Her name was Kathy. She was the best swimmer in our class and always looked at me with disdain (鄙视). Once, after a particularly long and hard swimming lesson, I spotted Kathy swimming gracefully in the pool. Mustering my courage, I asked meekly (温顺地),“Kathy, can you teach me swimming?” She stared at me coldly, and I thought she was going to refuse my request. To my surprise, she nodded after a few moments of silence. 1.续写词数为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: From then on, Kathy stayed back for about an hour after every swimming lesson for me. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Four months flew past and it was time for me to take my test. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Paragraph1: From then on, Kathy stayed back for about an hour after every swimming lesson for me. Her teaching is simple yet extremely effective. Without too many cliché instructions, she assisted me to jump into water directly and then demonstrated the proper swimming stroke beautifully. But once I was in the water, the feeling of fear drowned me again. In great disappointment even frustration, I leaned against the pool wall and dared not to swim any further. Kathy swam around me, patted on my back and encouraged me to try again. As time went by, I made great progress. Paragraph 2: Four months flew past and it was time for me to take my test. Leaping into the water, I was seized by the familiar fear again. On the verge of giving up, Kathy’s trust breathed courage and confidence in me. I managed to collect all my strength and swam to the finishing line. Eventually I passed the swimming test! Never had I been so overjoyed. Turning around, Kathy reached for me and hugged me tightly. The light of the sun shone on us, witnessing the start of a new friendship. 【解析】 【导语】本文以克服恐惧学习游泳为线索，主要描写作者开始很害怕水，但学校希望所有的学生都能通过游泳测试，如果不能，那么他们就必须在学校每周上一次游泳课，这让作者很害怕。因此父母为作者报名参加了家附近游泳池的游泳课。在这里，她得到了凯西的帮助。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“从那时起，每次给我上完游泳课后，凯西都会回来大约一个小时。”可知，第一段可描写凯西指导作者游泳。 ②由第二段首句内容“四个月过去了，是我参加考试的时候了。”可知，第二段可描写作者参加考试，并在凯西的鼓励下通过测试。 2.续写线索：陪游泳——帮助——鼓励——通过测试——高兴 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①帮助：assist/help ②回家：encourage/inspire ③演示：demonstrate/display/show 情绪类 ①高兴的：overjoyed/delighted ②害怕：feae/terror 【点睛】[高分句型1].

B Mark Levine, a 77-year-old American professor, has spent nearly twenty years living and working in China. On teaching days, he leaves his apartment in Beijing’s Haidian District before sunrise and travels over thirty kilometers to Minzu University’s Fengtai campus. Although he moves slowly, he maintains an active schedule, balancing his work as a teacher, writer, and musician. Levine often explains that these roles help him stay connected to the society he regards as home. His interest in China began while he was working for a U.S. labor organization dedicated to improving conditions for low-income workers. As a sociologist, he examined how different countries addressed social inequality and was particularly impressed by China’s progress. Later, a job offer from a college in Huai’an convinced him to take a decisive step and begin a new chapter. He still remembers his first evening in Huai’an, when the streets were crowded with bicycles, a scene that signaled how different his new environment would be. Over the years, he traveled to every provincial-level region in China and delivered lectures at more than eighty universities. In 2007, Levine moved to Beijing. His small apartment is filled with plants, guitars, books about China, and souvenirs from his travels — items that record the life he has built on his own. Although his family lives far away, he insists that he does not feel lonely, largely because of the friendships he has formed with colleagues, neighbors, and students. A key moment in his life came when he met Fu Han, a piano teacher who later became his musical partner. Hoping to present a more complete picture of China to the world, they began writing songs together. A spring festival he spent with her family in rural Hubei left him particularly moved and inspired one of his songs about the warmth he experienced there. In 2016, Levine received Chinese permanent residence, which strengthened his sense of belonging. Today, well known in his neighborhood, he is often greeted by children who call him “Grandpa Santa.” 4. Why did Levine move to China at first? A. To take up a post. B. To further his study. C. To find a well-paid job. D. To explore a college. 5. How does Levine mainly keep loneliness away while living far from his family? A. By writing songs about home. B. By traveling to various places. C. By occupying himself in work. D. By building social connections. 6. What does Levine’s cooperation with Fu Han imply? A. It encouraged him to pursue music full time. B. It pushed him to learn traditional instruments. C. It helped him become an established performer. D. It allowed him to share local stories effectively. 7. What is the text mainly about? A. A sociologist’s fight for workers. B. A foreigner’s life rooted in China. C. A foreign teacher’s route to fame. D. A professor’s music achievements. C Math anxiety has become a common psychological condition among students around the world. Students in countries with higher levels of math anxiety tend to achieve lower math grades, according to a study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences on Feb 15. Math anxiety — a negative emotional reaction to the core subject — causes fear, physical suffering and behavior problems among young pupils, according to a University of Cambridge study. In ordinary life, many people experience some degree of discomfort when confronted with a math problem, ranging from mild tension to strong fear. Some people also experience physical symptoms such as sweaty palms or a racing heart. They may then try to avoid numbers-related situations, meaning they are held back from pursuing careers related to the subject, such as science, technology or engineering, according to The Guardian. Relief comes from the fact that those with math anxiety aren’t destined to be bad at math. “If a child has math anxiety, don’t assume that they’ re not good at math. They may have had a really bad experience with math.” Daniel Ansuri, the senior author of the study told The London Free Press. “Students with math anxiety are not cognitively (认知地) disadvantaged.” Also, there are ways to manage your math-related stress. If you’re stressed before a math exam, spend a few minutes exploring those feelings before the exam begins. “It’s about making sure you’re interpreting your feelings correctly,” Sian Beilock, a cognitive scientist told the BBC. “A fast heartbeat and sweaty palms don’t necessarily mean you will fail.” A little math anxiety could be taken as a positive challenge to overcome. Just like many people get stage fright before delivering a speech, this nervous energy can help to motivate, according to Ian Lyons, a psychologist at Georgetown University. Math doesn’t come easy, no matter how clever you are. Leonardo da Vinci, the famous Italian artist, was a huge fan of mathematics. But his notebooks show that Da Vinci couldn’t do fractions (分数). He felt stressed to grasp, for instance, that dividing a number by one-quarter is the same as multiplying by four, resulting in a higher number than the original. 8. What do we know about math anxiety? A. It is common merely among students. B. It leads to people struggling in their career. C. It can cause physical and emotional discomfort. D. People with math anxiety are often bad at maths. 9. Which of the following statements will Daniel Ansari agree with according to his study? A. Math anxiety may contribute to better grades. B. Bad experience with math can cause cognitive disadvantages. C. Math anxiety is not related to the ability to solve math problems. D. Students with math anxiety may indeed experience lower math scores. 10. How should you deal with the stress related to math according to the article? A. Learn to make sense of your feelings. B. Avoid thinking about failures in math. C. Take all nervous energy as a challenge. D Pay little attention to your math anxiety. 11. Why is Leonardo da Vinci’s story mentioned? A. To suggest a way to solve math anxiety. B. To show that math anxiety is very common. C. To explain why math is a difficult subject to learn. D. To show it’s not enjoyable for da Vinci to learn math. D The idea of space-based solar power (SBSP) — using satellites to collect energy from the sun and “beam” it to collection points on Earth — has been around since at least the late 1960s. Despite its huge potential, the concept has not gained sufficient attention due to cost and technological hurdles. We already harvest energy from the sun. It’s collected directly through what we generally call solar power. This includes different technologies such as photovoltaics (PV, 光伏发电) and solar-thermal energy. The sun’s energy is also gathered indirectly: wind energy is an example of this, because breezes are generated by uneven heating of the atmosphere by the sun. But these green forms of power generation have limitations. They take up lots of space on land and are limited by the availability of light and wind. For example, solar farms don’t collect energy at night and gather less of it in winter and on cloudy days. PV in orbit won’t be limited by the onset of night. A satellite in geostationary orbit (GEO) — a circular orbit around 36,000 km above the Earth — is exposed to the Sun for more than 99% of the time during a whole year. This allows it to produce green energy 24/7. Transferring energy collected in space to the ground requires wireless power transmission. Using microwaves for this minimizes the energy lost in the atmosphere, even through cloudy skies. The microwave beam sent by the satellite will be focused towards the ground station, where antennas (天线) change the electromagnetic waves (电磁波) back into electricity. The ground station will need to have a diameter (直径) of 5 km, or more at high latitudes. However, this is still smaller than the areas of land needed to produce the same amount of power using solar or wind. An SBSP mission will be challenging — and risks still need to be fully assessed. While the electricity produced is fully green, the impact of the pollution from hundreds of heavy-lift launches is difficult to predict. Additionally, controlling such a large structure in space will require substantial amounts of fuel, which involves engineers working with sometimes very poisonous chemicals. The challenge of building platforms like this in space may seem frightening, but space-based solar power is technologically practicable. To be economically workable, it requires large-scale engineering, and therefore long-term and decisive commitment from governments and space agencies. But with all that in place, SBSP could make a fundamental contribution to delivering net zero by 2050 with sustainable, clean energy from space. 12. What is a common limitation of traditional solar and wind energy? A. They rely on the use of poisonous chemicals. B. They are difficult to transfer over long distances. C. They are affected by the availability of light and wind. D. They require large-scale engineering for construction. 13. Why does the author mention the diameter of the ground station in paragraph 4? A. To emphasize the high cost of building space-based solar power facilities. B. To prove the complexity of changing electromagnetic waves into electricity. C. To illustrate the immaturity of the technology for wireless power transmission. D. To show higher efficiency of space-based solar power than using solar or wind. 14.

Now, I was an excellent swimmer. Yet, a few months ago, things were different. And I had to thank her for helping me. I was always afraid of water. This fear could not be explained, but I knew that the moment I stepped near any body of water, my legs would turn to jelly. I would imagine myself drowning in the water. That was why I had never gone into a swimming pool until swimming became a school requirement. My school wanted all pupils to pass a swimming test, and if they could not, then they would have to attend weekly swimming lessons in school, which sent fright down my spine (脊柱). Thus, my parents signed me up for swimming lessons at the pool near my house. I had to attend those weekly lessons, and each one was great torture (折磨) for me. I was naturally awkward, and my fear of water did not help at all. Every lesson, I would be spending my time thrashing (拍打) about in the water while my classmates would be swimming countless laps effortlessly. How was I going to pass the test at this rate?I was discouraged. In my swimming class, there was an exceptionally athletic girl. Her name was Kathy. She was the best swimmer in our class and always looked at me with disdain (鄙视). Once, after a particularly long and hard swimming lesson, I spotted Kathy swimming gracefully in the pool. Mustering my courage, I asked meekly (温顺地),“Kathy, can you teach me swimming?” She stared at me coldly, and I thought she was going to refuse my request. To my surprise, she nodded after a few moments of silence. 1.续写词数为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: From then on, Kathy stayed back for about an hour after every swimming lesson for me. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Four months flew past and it was time for me to take my test. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
