B
As I walked toward my kindergarten teacher’s desk, I felt excited. Mrs Stuchio pulled out the little plastic chair and told me to sit. I placed my workbook on the table and began. “A pig can jig,” I recited. “Excellent,” she said. “Go on.” As I read the words and looked at the pigs, I felt strong, smart... happy.
I don’t remember much else about that day in 1974 at the Hills School in Dix Hills, but when I realized that sounding out letters on a page allowed me to read an entire story, I was attracted. When I was old enough to read chapter books, I couldn’t get enough of them, like Harriet the Spy, All-of-A-Kind Family, etc. Then I graduated to Danielle Steel and Sidney Sheldon. Back then, the “young adult” type didn’t exist; I went straight from family breakfast scenes to love stories, like Evergreen by Belva Plain.
At junior high school, English became my favorite class. I have vivid memories of Mrs Ayers reading The Cask of the Amontillado aloud as my eighth-grade classmates and I sat fascinated by her deep and emotional voice. In following English classes, my teachers assigned demanding books such as The Stranger, A Tale of Two Cities and complex research papers. For the first time, I felt book-related anxiety.
After getting my college degree in English and working at seventeen magazines, books called again: I left to get my teaching certification. As a new English teacher in Manhattan, I stressed the importance of immersive reading. Annotations (注释), I felt, broke the drive. “Sustained silent reading”, during which students spent entire periods reading, was essential to my curriculum.
Today, as a librarian at Manhasset High School, I promote reading with enthusiasm. In a recent ninth-grade class, I created a “reading workout”. Students sampled books spread across tables and read with no schedule. I’d never seen them more engaged. For now, I’ll keep getting lost in reading and use my platform as a librarian to share my passion.
4. What made the author first find reading attractive?
A. Reading chapter books. B. Discussing young adult books.
C. Sounding out letters on a page. D. Engaging with romance stories.
5. What can we learn about the author in junior high school?
A. She found English classes boring.
B. She preferred reading demanding books.
C. She was attracted by family breakfast scenes in books.
D. She started to feel stressed about some reading tasks.
6. What did the author emphasize in reading during her teaching?
A. Group reading. B. Critical reading.
C. Uninterrupted reading. D. Relaxing reading.
7. How did the author motivate the ninth-grade class to read?
A. By setting a reading schedule.
B. By asking students to write reading notes.
C. By making students read aloud together.
D. By supporting students in reading freely without schedule.
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. C 7. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文,作者以自身经历为线索,讲述了自己与阅读的不解之缘以及在不同阶段对阅读的感受和推动阅读的做法。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“I don’t remember much else about that day in 1974 at the Hills School in Dix Hills, but when I realized that sounding out letters on a page allowed me to read an entire story, I was attracted(1974年,在迪克斯山的希尔斯学校,我不记得那天的其他事情了,但当我意识到在一页纸上读出字母可以让我读完整个故事时,我被吸引了)”可知,作者第一次觉得阅读有吸引力是因为发现拼读页面上的字母能让自己读懂整个故事。故选C项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“At junior high school, English became my favorite class. I have vivid memories of Mrs Ayers reading The Cask of the Amontillado aloud as my eighth-grade classmates and I sat fascinated by her deep and emotional voice. In following English classes, my teachers assigned demanding books such as The Stranger, A Tale of Two Cities and complex research papers. For the first time, I felt book-related anxiety.(初中时,英语成了我最喜欢的课。我还清楚地记得艾尔斯夫人大声朗读《阿蒙蒂拉多酒桶》的情景,当时我和八年级的同学坐在那里,被她深沉而充满感情的声音迷住了。在接下来的英语课上,我的老师布置了要求很高的书,比如《陌生人》、《双城记》和复杂的研究论文。我第一次感受到与书有关的焦虑。)”可知,作者在初中时,面对老师布置的高难度书籍和复杂的研究论文,开始对一些阅读任务感到有压力。故选D项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“As a new English teacher in Manhattan, I stressed the importance of immersive reading. Annotations (注释), I felt, broke the drive. ‘Sustained silent reading’, during which students spent entire periods reading, was essential to my curriculum(作为曼哈顿的一名新英语老师,我强调沉浸式阅读的重要性。我觉得注解破坏了我的动力。“持续默读”,也就是让学生花整节课的时间来阅读,是我的课程中必不可少的一部分)”可知,作者在教学中强调沉浸式阅读,认为注释会打断阅读节奏,“持续默读”很重要,即不间断的阅读。故选C项。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“Today, as a librarian at Manhasset High School, I promote reading with enthusiasm. In a recent ninth-grade class, I created a “reading workout”. Students sampled books spread across tables and read with no schedule. I'd never seen them more engaged.(今天,作为曼哈塞特高中的一名图书管理员,我热情地提倡阅读。在最近一次九年级的课堂上,我设计了一个“阅读练习”。学生们把书摊在桌子上,没有时间表地阅读。我从未见过他们如此投入。)”可知,作者通过让九年级学生自由选书、无时间限制地阅读来激发他们的阅读兴趣。故选D项。
C
A confusing conflict is unfolding in companies embracing various AI-related tools. The number of companies with fully AI-led processes has nearly doubled since 2023. Yet a recent study found that 95% of organizations see no measurable return on their investment in these technologies.
A research team at BetterUp Labs has identified one possible reason: employees are using AI tools to create low-effort, passable looking work that ends up creating more work for their coworkers, a phenomenon referred to as “workshop” — AI-generated work content that looks like good work, but lacks the quality to meaningfully advance a given task.
Using machines to help with thinking is not new. We throw hard mental work to technologies like Google because it’s easier to search for something online than to remember it. However, workshop shifts the burden of the work downstream, requiring the receiver to interpret, correct, or redo the work. In other words, it transfers the effort from the creator to the receiver.
Employees reported spending an average of almost two hours dealing with each instance of workshop, which costs millions of dollars per year. There were also emotional costs. When asked how it feels to receive workshop, 53% employees report being annoyed, 38% confused, and 22% offended. The most alarming cost may be interpersonal. Workshops is having a significant impact on collaboration at work. About half of the employees think colleagues who send workshop are less creative, capable, and reliable, 42% viewed them as less trustworthy, and 37% less intelligent.
Generative AI is not appropriate for all tasks, nor can it read minds. Leaders will do best to model thoughtful AI use that has purpose and intention and set clear rules for their teams. Frame AI as a collaborative tool, not a shortcut. Employees should form a “pilot mindset”, using AI to accelerate (加速) specific outcomes with specific usage and uphold the same standards of excellence for work done by humans plus AI as by humans alone.
8. What does the confusing conflict refer to in paragraph 1?
A. An advance in generative AI tools.
B. An increase in fully AI-led processes.
C. A mismatch between funding and return in AI.
D. A trend of companies embracing AI technologies.
9. How does workshop affect employees?
A. It saves time and reduces costs. B. It improves collaboration at work.
C. It makes employees less intelligent. D. It creates extra work and emotional stress.
10. What is the author’s suggestion for team leaders?
A. Accelerate normal usage of AI. B. Guide their workers with specifics.
C. Favor work done by humans alone. D. Raise standards of excellence for work.
11. What is a suitable title for the text?
A. AI-related Tools Lose Their Appeal
B. AI-powered Machines Help with Thinking
C. AI-led Investment Sees Measurable Profits
D. AI-generated Workshop Ruins Productivity
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述企业广泛应用AI但投资无显著回报,因员工用AI生成低质“敷衍式工作成果”,带来额外工作与各类成本,文章还给出了合理使用AI的相关建议。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“The number of companies with fully AI-led processes has nearly doubled since 2023. Yet a recent study found that 95% of organizations see no measurable return on their investment in these technologies.(自2023年以来,采用全人工智能主导流程的企业数量几乎翻倍。然而最近的一项研究发现,95%的机构在这些技术上的投资没有获得可衡量的回报。)”可知,这种令人困惑的矛盾指的是企业在人工智能上的投入与回报不匹配。故选C项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Employees reported spending an average of almost two hours dealing with each instance of workshop, which costs millions of dollars per year. There were also emotional costs. When asked how it feels to receive workshop, 53% employees report being annoyed, 38% confused, and 22% offended.(员工反馈称,处理每一次这类敷衍式工作成果事宜平均要花费近两个小时,这一情况每年会造成数百万美元的成本损耗。除此之外,还存在情感层面的损耗。当被问及收到这类敷衍式工作成果相关安排的感受时,53%的员工表示感到厌烦,38%表示困惑,还有22%表示被冒犯。)”可知,“敷衍式AI工作成果”会给员工带来额外的工作和情绪压力。故选D项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“Leaders will do best to model thoughtful AI use that has purpose and intention and set clear rules for their teams. Frame AI as a collaborative tool, not a shortcut.(领导者最好以身作则,有目的、有意图地合理使用人工智能,并为团队制定明确的规则。将人工智能定位为协作工具,而非捷径。)”可知,作者建议团队领导者为员工做出具体的使用指引。故选B项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据全文内容特别是第一段“A confusing conflict is unfolding in companies embracing various AI-related tools. The number of companies with fully AI-led processes has nearly doubled since 2023. Yet a recent study found that 95% of organizations see no measurable return on their investment in these technologies.(当下,众多引入各类人工智能相关工具的企业中,正浮现出一种令人费解的矛盾现状。自2023年以来,实现流程完全由人工智能主导的企业数量几乎翻了一番。然而近期有研究发现,95%的企业并未从这些技术的投入中获得可量化的投资回报。)”可知,首段提出企业AI投入无实际回报的矛盾,第二段引出“敷衍式AI工作成果” 这一现象,后续段落阐述其带来的时间、经济、情感及人际成本,末段给出合理使用AI的建议,核心围绕AI生成的敷衍成果影响工作效率展开。所以D项AI-generated Workshop Ruins Productivity(人工智能生成的成果严重影响工作效率)符合文意。故选D项。
D
British anthropologists (人类学家) Russell Hill and Robert Barton of the University of Durham, after studying the results of one-on-one boxing, tae kwon do, Greco-Roman wrestling and freestyle wrestling matches at the Olympic Games, conclude that when two competitors are equally matched in fitness and skill, the athlete wearing red is more likely to win.
Hill and Barton report that when one competitor is much better than the other, colour has no effect on the result. However, when there is only a small difference between them, the effect of colour is enough tip the balance. The anthropologists say that the number of times red wins is not simply by chance, but that these results are statistically significant.
Joanna Setchell, a primate (灵长目动物) researcher at the University of Cambridge, has found similar results in nature. She studies the large African monkeys known as mandrills. Mandrills have bright red noses that stand out against their white faces. Setchell’s work shows that the powerful males — the ones who are more successful with females — have a brighter red nose than other males.
As well as the studies on primates by Setchell, another study shows the effect of red among birds. In an experiment, scientists put red plastic rings on the legs of male zebra finches and this increased the birds’ success with female zebra finches, Zebra finches already have bright red beaks (鸟喙), so this study suggests that, as with Olympic athletes, an extra flash of red is significant. In fact, researchers from the University of Glasgow say that the birds’ brightly coloured beaks are an indicator of health. Jonathan Blount, a biologist, and his colleagues think they have found proof that bright red or orange beaks attract females because they mean that the males are healthier. Nothing in nature is simple, however, because in species such as the blue footed booby, a completely different colour seems to give the male birds the same advantage with females.
Meanwhile, what about those athletes who win in their events while wearing red? Do their clothes give them an unintentional advantage? Robert Barton accepts that “that is the implication” of their findings. Is it time for sports authorities to consider new regulations on sports clothing?
12. According to their research. Hill and Barton conclude that ________.
A. the colour of clothing has an effect on most sport events
B. red should be the choice of colour for clothing in sports
C. red plays a role when competitors are equally capable
D. athletes perform better when surrounded by bright red
13 The underlined word “tip” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ________.
A. achieve B. advance C. keep D. change
14. The example of the blue footed booby proves that ________.
A. male birds use different body parts to draw attention
B. red is not the only colour to attract female birds
C. blue gives female birds the same advantage
D. blue can indicate how healthy a bird is
15. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. The colour red gives male animals the most advantage.
B. Male zebra finches prefer to have red plastic rings on their legs.
C. Rules on sports clothing are going to be changed.
D. Athletes wearing red may have an advantage over their opponents.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了两位人类学家的研究成果,那就是当竞争对手的能力相当时,红色对胜利起了作用。红色对鸟类、对运动员的成功都起着重要作用。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“when two competitors are equally matched in fitness and skill, the athlete wearing red is more likely to win (当两名运动员身体素质和技术水平相等时,穿红衣服的运动员更有可能获胜)”可知,Hill和Barton通过研究得出结论:当竞争对手的能力相当时,红色对胜利起了作用。故选C项。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“when there is only a small difference between them (当它们之间只有很小的差别时)”以及划线词下文“The anthropologists say that the number of times red wins is not simply by chance, but that these results are statistically significant. (人类学家说,红队获胜的次数并不仅仅是偶然的,而且这些结果在统计学上是显著的)”可推知,此处指当竞争对手的能力相当时,红色能够帮助取胜,改变原来的平衡。由此可知,划线词“tip”意为“改变”。故选D项。
14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“In fact, researchers from the University of Glasgow say that the birds’ brightly coloured beaks are an indicator of health. Jonathan Blount, a biologist, and his colleagues think they have found proof that bright red or orange beaks attract females because they mean that the males are healthier (事实上,Glasgow大学的研究人员说,这些鸟鲜艳的喙是健康的标志。生物学家Jonathan Blount和他的同事们认为他们已经发现,鲜红色或橙色的喙吸引雌性是因为这意味着雄性更健康)”可推知,蓝脚鲣鸟的例子证明了,红色不是吸引雌鸟的唯一颜色,只要是鲜艳颜色的喙都可以吸引雌鸟。故选B项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,再根据文章第一段“when two competitors are equally matched in fitness and skill, the athlete wearing red is more likely to win(当两名运动员的身体素质和技术水平相等时,穿红衣服的运动员更有可能获胜)”以及文章最后一段“Meanwhile, what about those athletes who win in their events while wearing red? Do their clothes give them an unintentional advantage? (那么,那些穿着红色衣服在比赛中获胜的运动员呢?他们的衣服给了他们一种无意识的优势)”可推知,文章主要讨论了在比赛场上当两名选手在体能和技术上相当时,穿红色衣服的运动员更有优势,更有可能获胜这个研究成果。D项“穿红色衣服的运动员可能比他们的对手有优势。”符合文意,最适合作为本文标题。故选D项。

第二节 书面表达(满分25分)
47. 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。
It was Christmas again. From the living room window, I watched my younger brother Roy climb out of the driver’s seat. His arrival brought me joy but also that familiar feeling of guilt torturing me every Christmas.
The memory went back to the time when we were kids. Our parents had little money, and even at Christmas we expected little. Then one December, after my father’s work injury, an insurance settlement brought an unexpected fortune, which meant the most special Christmas with real presents for the first time in my nine-year-old life.
I knew exactly what I wanted: the cowgirl boots from every advertisement. Momma and Daddy put up our first real tree. Brightly wrapped gifts started to appear underneath it. But I only had eyes for a long box with my name on it, just the right size for boots. Every glimpse sent my heart racing. It was the Christmas I’d always dreamed of — until I ruined it.
Alone at home one afternoon, I secretly opened the box. Then my heart sank. Inside were no boots. In a desperate, unforgivable anger, I tore into other presents, one after another. Still no boots!
That evening, I heard my father yelled: “How could you?” Roy was being blamed. Sadly, he was too young and afraid to say anything for himself. I also stayed silent, too ashamed and afraid to tell even Roy the truth. Then Christmas came, and I couldn’t share my family’s excitement when we sat cross-legged around the tree. “No use pretending you haven’t seen what’s inside,” Daddy said when Roy tore into a gift. I’d ruined Christmas for myself and for Roy, too.
For decades, I carried the secret. I never shook a gift box before Christmas, and I feared opening presents with Roy nearby. But years later, that Christmas evening, over after-dinner coffee, I found myself alone with my brother. Now is your chance, I thought. Come clean.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
“Roy, I have something to tell you,” I said.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Understandingly, Roy looked at me with a big smile on his face.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Possible answer:
“Roy, I have something to tell you,” I said. His eyes met mine, and I saw his concern. “Do you remember that Christmas we got presents because of Dad’s insurance settlement?” Roy frowned as if he had to think hard to remember. “Oh, sure. I haven’t thought about that for ages.” I took a deep breath and let it all out. “I have a confession. I was the one who opened the gifts. I let you take the blame. I’m so sorry. I was afraid of how mad you’d be if I admitted the truth, and as time went on, it only got harder. Can you ever forgive me?” I held my breath, waiting for his reaction.
Understandingly, Roy looked at me with a big smile on his face. “We have to admit that fear makes cowards of us all,” he said with a smile, “so it is no big deal but a childhood experience.” He leaned over and hugged me. “I forgive you. You shouldn’t have carried that all these years.” His words echoed in my mind, and the heaviness lifted from my shoulders. I thought the Christmas of the insurance settlement had the potential for being the most special Christmas ever, and truly it was, but in a different way.
【解析】

B
As I walked toward my kindergarten teacher’s desk, I felt excited. Mrs Stuchio pulled out the little plastic chair and told me to sit. I placed my workbook on the table and began. “A pig can jig,” I recited. “Excellent,” she said. “Go on.” As I read the words and looked at the pigs, I felt strong, smart... happy.
I don’t remember much else about that day in 1974 at the Hills School in Dix Hills, but when I realized that sounding out letters on a page allowed me to read an entire story, I was attracted. When I was old enough to read chapter books, I couldn’t get enough of them, like Harriet the Spy, All-of-A-Kind Family, etc. Then I graduated to Danielle Steel and Sidney Sheldon. Back then, the “young adult” type didn’t exist; I went straight from family breakfast scenes to love stories, like Evergreen by Belva Plain.
At junior high school, English became my favorite class. I have vivid memories of Mrs Ayers reading The Cask of the Amontillado aloud as my eighth-grade classmates and I sat fascinated by her deep and emotional voice. In following English classes, my teachers assigned demanding books such as The Stranger, A Tale of Two Cities and complex research papers. For the first time, I felt book-related anxiety.
After getting my college degree in English and working at seventeen magazines, books called again: I left to get my teaching certification. As a new English teacher in Manhattan, I stressed the importance of immersive reading. Annotations (注释), I felt, broke the drive. “Sustained silent reading”, during which students spent entire periods reading, was essential to my curriculum.
Today, as a librarian at Manhasset High School, I promote reading with enthusiasm. In a recent ninth-grade class, I created a “reading workout”. Students sampled books spread across tables and read with no schedule. I’d never seen them more engaged. For now, I’ll keep getting lost in reading and use my platform as a librarian to share my passion.
4. What made the author first find reading attractive?

A confusing conflict is unfolding in companies embracing various AI-related tools. The number of companies with fully AI-led processes has nearly doubled since 2023. Yet a recent study found that 95% of organizations see no measurable return on their investment in these technologies.
A research team at BetterUp Labs has identified one possible reason: employees are using AI tools to create low-effort, passable looking work that ends up creating more work for their coworkers, a phenomenon referred to as “workshop” — AI-generated work content that looks like good work, but lacks the quality to meaningfully advance a given task.
Using machines to help with thinking is not new. We throw hard mental work to technologies like Google because it’s easier to search for something online than to remember it. However, workshop shifts the burden of the work downstream, requiring the receiver to interpret, correct, or redo the work. In other words, it transfers the effort from the creator to the receiver.
Employees reported spending an average of almost two hours dealing with each instance of workshop, which costs millions of dollars per year. There were also emotional costs. When asked how it feels to receive workshop, 53% employees report being annoyed, 38% confused, and 22% offended. The most alarming cost may be interpersonal. Workshops is having a significant impact on collaboration at work. About half of the employees think colleagues who send workshop are less creative, capable, and reliable, 42% viewed them as less trustworthy, and 37% less intelligent.
Generative AI is not appropriate for all tasks, nor can it read minds. Leaders will do best to model thoughtful AI use that has purpose and intention and set clear rules for their teams. Frame AI as a collaborative tool, not a shortcut. Employees should form a “pilot mindset”, using AI to accelerate (加速) specific outcomes with specific usage and uphold the same standards of excellence for work done by humans plus AI as by humans alone.
8. What does the confusing conflict refer to in paragraph 1?
A. An advance in generative AI tools.
B. An increase in fully AI-led processes.
C. A mismatch between funding and return in AI.
D. A trend of companies embracing AI technologies.
9. How does workshop affect employees?
A. It saves time and reduces costs. B. It improves collaboration at work.
C. It makes employees less intelligent. D. It creates extra work and emotional stress.
10. What is the author’s suggestion for team leaders?
A. Accelerate normal usage of AI. B. Guide their workers with specifics.
C. Favor work done by humans alone. D. Raise standards of excellence for work.
11. What is a suitable title for the text?
A. AI-related Tools Lose Their Appeal
B. AI-powered Machines Help with Thinking
C. AI-led Investment Sees Measurable Profits
D. AI-generated Workshop Ruins Productivity
D
British anthropologists (人类学家) Russell Hill and Robert Barton of the University of Durham, after studying the results of one-on-one boxing, tae kwon do, Greco-Roman wrestling and freestyle wrestling matches at the Olympic Games, conclude that when two competitors are equally matched in fitness and skill, the athlete wearing red is more likely to win.
Hill and Barton report that when one competitor is much better than the other, colour has no effect on the result. However, when there is only a small difference between them, the effect of colour is enough tip the balance. The anthropologists say that the number of times red wins is not simply by chance, but that these results are statistically significant.
Joanna Setchell, a primate (灵长目动物) researcher at the University of Cambridge, has found similar results in nature. She studies the large African monkeys known as mandrills. Mandrills have bright red noses that stand out against their white faces. Setchell’s work shows that the powerful males — the ones who are more successful with females — have a brighter red nose than other males.
As well as the studies on primates by Setchell, another study shows the effect of red among birds. In an experiment, scientists put red plastic rings on the legs of male zebra finches and this increased the birds’ success with female zebra finches, Zebra finches already have bright red beaks (鸟喙), so this study suggests that, as with Olympic athletes, an extra flash of red is significant. In fact, researchers from the University of Glasgow say that the birds’ brightly coloured beaks are an indicator of health. Jonathan Blount, a biologist, and his colleagues think they have found proof that bright red or orange beaks attract females because they mean that the males are healthier. Nothing in nature is simple, however, because in species such as the blue footed booby, a completely different colour seems to give the male birds the same advantage with females.
Meanwhile, what about those athletes who win in their events while wearing red? Do their clothes give them an unintentional advantage? Robert Barton accepts that “that is the implication” of their findings. Is it time for sports authorities to consider new regulations on sports clothing?
12. According to their research. Hill and Barton conclude that ________.
A. the colour of clothing has an effect on most sport events
B. red should be the choice of colour for clothing in sports
C. red plays a role when competitors are equally capable
D. athletes perform better when surrounded by bright red
13. The underlined word “tip” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ________.
A. achieve B. advance C. keep D. change
14. The example of the blue footed booby proves that ________.
A. male birds use different body parts to draw attention
B. red is not the only colour to attract female birds
C. blue gives female birds the same advantage
D. blue can indicate how healthy a bird is
15. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. The colour red gives male animals the most advantage.
B. Male zebra finches prefer to have red plastic rings on their legs.
C. Rules on sports clothing are going to be changed.
D. Athletes wearing red may have an advantage over their opponents.

47. 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。
It was Christmas again. From the living room window I watched my younger brother Roy climb out of the driver’s seat. His arrival brought me joy but also that familiar feeling of guilt torturing me every Christmas.
The memory went back to the time when we were kids. Our parents had little money, and even at Christmas we expected little. Then one December, after my father’s work injury, an insurance settlement brought an unexpected fortune, which meant the most special Christmas with real presents for the first time in my nine-year-old life.
I knew exactly what I wanted: the cowgirl boots from every advertisement. Momma and Daddy put up our first real tree. Brightly wrapped gifts started to appear underneath it. But I only had eyes for a long box with my name on it, just the right size for boots. Every glimpse sent my heart racing. It was the Christmas I’d always dreamed of — until I ruined it.
Alone at home one afternoon, I secretly opened the box. Then my heart sank. Inside were no boots. In a desperate, unforgivable anger, I tore into other presents, one after another. Still no boots!
That evening, I heard my father yelled: “How could you?” Roy was being blamed. Sadly, he was too young and afraid to say anything for himself. I also stayed silent, too ashamed and afraid to tell even Roy the truth. Then Christmas came, and I couldn’t share my family’s excitement when we sat cross-legged around the tree. “No use pretending you haven’t seen what’s inside,” Daddy said when Roy tore into a gift. I’d ruined Christmas for myself and for Roy, too.
For decades, I carried the secret. I never shook a gift box before Christmas, and I feared opening presents with Roy nearby. But years later, that Christmas evening, over after-dinner coffee, I found myself alone with my brother. Now is your chance, I thought. Come clean.
注意:
1. 续写词数应150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
“Roy, I have something to tell you,” I said.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Understandingly, Roy looked at me with a big smile on his face.
