He found the wolf， howling wildly， was chasing some mice in the moonlight. Letting out squeaky noises， the mice ran about on the grass aimlessly. Suddenly the hungry wolf sprang up， catching a mouse. Sitting a stone’s throw away， it ate the mouse it captured. Running about its feet were dozens of noisy mice. The wolf rose， ready to catch another mouse. Shocked， Hank turned back to the table for his logbook. 　　As the wolf sprang up and tried to catch another mouse， Hank opened the logbook again. His heart pounded hard. Grabbing the pen， Hank quickly wrote what was happening outside the cabin. Another mouse caught， the wolf swallowed it whole. The hunting over， the wolf ran away with its stomach filled. Closing the logbook， Hank took a deep breath， feeling so good. It was the first time that he had stayed alone in the mountains to study wild animals. That night he stayed awake， eager to report what he had discovered to his dad. 2 / 3 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ Section Ⅳ　Writing about the unexplained Ⅰ.完形填空 　　（2025·海南海口高二下期末） My parents live in the foothills of Santa Barbara， California.

It was sitting a stone’s throw away in the moonlight. The wolf howling （嚎叫）， Hank shook slightly. For the first time， he felt truly alone in the mountains. 　　It had felt good to be allowed to come along with Dad. Dad was a scientist who studied wild animals. Two days ago， they had moved into an empty cabin. Here， Dad would write a report about what he had found. But they discovered that dozens and dozens of mice had taken over the cabin. The little creatures had gotten into the supplies of dried food and ruined almost everything. 　　Now， because most of the food was gone， Dad had left to get new supplies from town and would be staying overnight. Hank had insisted on staying behind. 　　The wolf howl sounding again， Hank opened the logbook to write about it， but his hand shook. Dad had never mentioned having any trouble with wolves. Hank closed the logbook and put it on the table. Quickly he looked around for something he could use as a weapon just in case. He grabbed a stick from the fireplace， went to the door， and took a deep breath. 　　Then he opened the door， waved the stick， and shouted with all his might （强大力量）： “Go away， wolf. Go away！” Shocked， the wolf sprang （跳跃） and started running away. Hank closed the door， his heart pounding hard. When he’d caught his breath， he turned back to the window. Oh， no！ There was the wolf sitting right where it had sat before. 　　Hank stared at the wolf. The wolf stared right back at him. Hank was staring into the eyes of a hunter. He knew， like all creatures， the wolf needed to eat. Hank’s dad had said wolves play their part in the environment by eating deer， rabbits， and other animals. But maybe， like the hungry mice that were running about Hank’s feet， wolves go for any food they can find. Suddenly， Hank heard a squeaky （吱吱叫的） noise！ 注意：（1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式作答。 　　Holding his breath， Hank raised his head to see. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　As the wolf sprang up and tried to catch another mouse， Hank opened the logbook again. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 2 / 3 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
