Welcome to the Lectric eBikes family! Here’s some important information you need to know to get started.
Rider’s Responsibility

I didn’t always drink a lot of caffeine (咖啡因). I hardly enjoyed the taste of coffee until my mid-20s. But once I started working long hours from home, I soon needed a third cup of coffee just to feel the energy one used to give me. But by the end of the day, my heart felt like it was beating faster, I couldn’t relax, and it was difficult to fall asleep.
According to Dr. Giuseppe Aragona, an online doctor, caffeine dependence isn’t sustainable (可持续的). “Imagine your body like your finances. Running it on caffeine is the same as surviving through credit cards,” he said. “Eventually, the bank (your body in this case) will want to cash-in, and this makes it much more likely for you to become tired, lose focus, and by the end of the day, want to achieve nothing.”
So I decided to remove all caffeinated drinks from my life for two weeks, no matter how awful it felt. I started with three cups of lemon water in the morning, had a decaffeinated soda in the afternoon, and ended with a cup of tea. Though the effects, at first, were hardly the same, the act of getting up from my desk to refill my cup made the day a bit more bearable.
Dr. Aragona also told me that kicking all the caffeine could help me find a more natural body rhythm (节律) and reduce my anxiety levels. But along the way, he said I’d likely be sleepy. “Of course, you will still get tired, but this is natural, because all caffeine is doing is saving that for later — and likely to a greater degree after you force your body into overdrive,” he added.
The first three days were awful. I felt extremely tired, had really terrible headaches, and could barely make it to 10 a.m. without wanting to take a nap. After about a week, I felt like a different person. By the end of the two weeks, I felt a lot more in control of my mind, body, and life. And I didn’t miss caffeine as much as I thought I would.
24. Why did the author start to drink a lot of caffeine?
A. To keep energetic. B. To stay up late.
C. To enjoy the taste. D. To fight severe stress.
25. What is a consequence of caffeine dependence according to Dr. Aragona?
A. Financial difficulties. B. Physical burnout.
C. Longer working hours. D. Emotional breakdown.
26. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 4 refer to?
A. Anxiety. B. Focus. C. Tiredness. D. Sleep.
27. Which of the following best describes the author’s experience of quitting caffeine?
A. Tiring but interesting. B. Boring but worthwhile.
C. Painful but rewarding. D. Awkward but educational.
C
The sharp fin. The rows upon rows of sharp teeth. The large black eyes. The sharks you see on television in Jaws or Discovery’s “Shark Week” are not the friendliest-looking creatures. They aren’t exactly an animal you want to find near you while swimming in the ocean. Despite their portrayals (刻画) in movies and popular culture, sharks are complex, misunderstood creatures that are weaker than they appear.
One very common misunderstanding about sharks is their desire to hunt humans. When sharks attack humans, it is because they mistake a human for their normal prey (猎物), seals or dolphins. They don’t seek out humans on purpose. Statistically, you are more likely to be struck by lightning than be bitten by a shark.
Sharks are very important to the ocean as they are at the top of the food chain. Some sharks even control the balance of an ecosystem through fear alone. Tiger sharks in Australia help protect seagrass meadows from turtles (海龟). Turtles eat the seagrass and without the sharks, they will destroy these meadows. When tiger sharks are present, though, the turtles are scared away, which controls their appetite for seagrass and promotes its growth.
Though sharks have a reputation (名声) for being very scary to humans, the sad truth is that they should be scared of humans. The number of sharks in the ocean is steadily dropping. There are a few reasons for this. For one, they mature quite slowly, over several years, and produce relatively few young. For another, overfishing of sharks is happening because more and more people want their fins. About 100 million sharks are killed every year according to National Geographic. Shark fin is a way for people to show off their wealth. Shark fins are also believed to have medicinal benefits, though there is no evidence or proof that they actually do. Both of these ideas are putting pressure on the number of sharks in the ocean.
28. What do most people think of sharks?
A. They are weak. B. They are ugly. C. They are complex. D. They are violent.
29. What does the author want to show by mentioning lightning in paragraph 2?
A. Shark attacks are rare. B. Sharks swim fast.
C. Shark bites are deadly. D. Sharks make mistakes.
30. Why are sharks important to the ocean?
A. They scare humans away. B. They control its food chain.
C. They maintain the ecological stability. D. They reduce the number of sea animals.
31. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. SOS: Save Our Sharks! B. Sharks: King of the Ocean
C. Shark Fins: An Ecological Crisis D. Sharks: Killers or Misunderstood?
D
Catalina Coppel, 10, is aching to get a cell phone so she can be a social media butterfly. She says she’s the only person in her class without one and is looking forward to taking pictures to post on all the social media apps. Both her parents are worried. “If I can postpone it a little bit, it’ll be better for her mental health,” said her mother, Rosantina.
Research indicates there’s an increase in anxiety, depression and suicide in youth that is linked with increased social media use, according to Jessica Heldman at the University of San Diego School of Law Children’s Advocacy Institute. The organization is sponsoring (赞助) Assembly Bill 2408, which defines addiction as a mental health issue that may need treatment or intervention and aims to better hold social media companies responsible. It would allow parents to sue (起诉) social media companies like Instagram, TikTok and Snapchat for addicting children to their apps.
Suing social media companies is not new. The mother of Selena Rodriguez is among parents who’ve filed suit against Instagram and Snapchat. She claims her 11-year-old daughter died by suicide after developing an addiction to the social media apps.
City Heights parent Shaun Jones calls social media the “biggest drug known to man these days.” He not only sees the allure (诱惑) cell phones and apps have for his 8-year-old nephew but his 2-year-old daughter as well. He was among the minority of people we talked to supporting a parent’s right to sue. “She’s only one click away from seeing something she should never see in her life,” said Jones.
San Diego High sophomore Clark Tansey says he uses social media for messaging but understands its draw. “It’s very easy to get too far in and lose consciousness,” he said.
Tansey’s father was among the parents concerned about a litigious (好诉讼的) society, citing the Johnny Depp-Amber Heard trial, saying it’s silly. They say parents should ultimately police their kids on social media, not the court of law.
32. Why is Catalina Coppel eager to get a cell phone?
A. To take photos of herself. B. To show off to her classmates.
C. To get engaged in social media. D. To stay in touch with her parents.
33. What is Shaun Jones’ opinion of social media?
A. It is a wonder drug for children. B. It contains inappropriate content.
C. It is a helpful tool if properly used. D. It pays no attention to parents’ right.
34. What is the attitude of Clark Tansey’s father to suits against social media companies?
A. Favorable. B. Disapproving. C. Reserved. D. Tolerant.
35. What is the purpose of this text?
A. To discuss the causes of addiction to social media.
B. To show the seriousness of addiction to social media.
C. To promote the idea of suing social media companies.
D. To introduce a bill about suing social media companies.

67. 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。
On the afternoon of my eighteenth birthday, I was driving my dad’s old car around town, feeling absolutely free and excited. The sun was shining, and everything felt perfect. As I made a turn a bit too quickly, the worst thing happened. There was a loud, sharp sound of metal scraping (刮擦) against metal. My heart jumped into my throat — I had sideswiped a car parked by the pavement.
I stopped the car, my hands shaking on the wheel. I looked around nervously. The street was completely empty; no one had seen the accident. A powerful thought rushed into my head: “Just drive away. No one will ever know.” The car I hit was a beautiful, brand-new car, and the scratch along its door was long and deep. My own car only had a small bump. Panic filled me. I had worked hard to save money for my first semester’s college books, and I knew that money would be wiped out by this repair. The temptation to escape was overwhelming.
But then, I pictured my dad’s serious face. He had always taught me that taking responsibility for your actions was what defined a person. With a heart that felt like a heavy stone, I pulled over behind the car. I found a notebook and a pen in my backpack. My hands were trembling so much that the writing was messy. I wrote down my name, my phone number, my address, and a short apology. I tore out the page, walked back to the car, and carefully put the note under its windshield wiper. Driving home, I was consumed with fear already imagining the angry phone call and the financial trouble that would follow me to college.
The call came that evening. A woman’s voice, calm and steady, asked for me. “This is Mrs. Gable,” she said. “I’m calling about the note you left on my car.” I prepared for the worst and apologized in a rushed, nervous stream. She listened quietly until I finished. “The scratch on my car is quite noticeable,” she said, pausing. My stomach tightened into a knot, sure she was about to demand a huge payment. Then she added, her voice warming, “But so is your honesty.”
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。
I froze, not expecting such a response.

IT makes me proud, but I really bothered me to stay fit, and keeping the superhero face on is quite tiring too. Yet those chAllenges don't even come close to the difficulty of chasing and fighting. You have to make concerted efforts to act as if it's effortless. I heard you grew up in canada. How was that? I have many family members there. I went to an international school, but the best thing was the fantastic countryside near my home. I spent most weekends camping in the forest, which was really great. So how did you get into acting? Well, at university I studied literature but never acted in any drama. After graduating, I worked as an assistant for a producer working on a musical comedy. One night, an actor was ill, and I was asked to play his part, and I just went from there. What would you have done if you hadn't become an actor? Well, both my parents devote themselves to educational careers. Even so, IT hardly interested me. My older brother owns a company, and he said that I could have a job in his office.

W: What would you have done if you hadn’t become an actor?
M: Well, both my parents devote themselves to educational careers. Even so, it hardly interested me. My older brother owns a company and he said that I could have a job in his office. I guess that’s what I’d probably have done.

【22题详解】

I didn’t always drink a lot of caffeine (咖啡因). I hardly enjoyed the taste of coffee until my mid-20s. But once I started working long hours from home, I soon needed a third cup of coffee just to feel the energy one used to give me. But by the end of the day, my heart felt like it was beating faster, I couldn’t relax, and it was difficult to fall asleep.
According to Dr. Giuseppe Aragona, an online doctor, caffeine dependence isn’t sustainable (可持续的). “Imagine your body like your finances. Running it on caffeine is the same as surviving through credit cards,” he said. “Eventually, the bank (your body in this case) will want to cash-in, and this makes it much more likely for you to become tired, lose focus, and by the end of the day, want to achieve nothing.”
So I decided to remove all caffeinated drinks from my life for two weeks, no matter how awful it felt. I started with three cups of lemon water in the morning, had a decaffeinated soda in the afternoon, and ended with a cup of tea. Though the effects, at first, were hardly the same, the act of getting up from my desk to refill my cup made the day a bit more bearable.
Dr. Aragona also told me that kicking all the caffeine could help me find a more natural body rhythm (节律) and reduce my anxiety levels. But along the way, he said I’d likely be sleepy. “Of course, you will still get tired, but this is natural, because all caffeine is doing is saving that for later — and likely to a greater degree after you force your body into overdrive,” he added.
The first three days were awful. I felt extremely tired, had really terrible headaches, and could barely make it to 10 a.m. without wanting to take a nap. After about a week, I felt like a different person. By the end of the two weeks, I felt a lot more in control of my mind, body, and life. And I didn’t miss caffeine as much as I thought I would.
24. Why did the author start to drink a lot of caffeine?
A. To keep energetic. B. To stay up late.
C. To enjoy the taste. D. To fight severe stress.
25. What is a consequence of caffeine dependence according to Dr. Aragona?
A. Financial difficulties. B. Physical burnout.
C. Longer working hours. D. Emotional breakdown.
26. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 4 refer to?
A. Anxiety. B. Focus. C. Tiredness. D. Sleep.
27. Which of the following best describes the author’s experience of quitting caffeine?
A. Tiring but interesting. B. Boring but worthwhile.
C. Painful but rewarding. D. Awkward but educational.
【答案】24. A 25. B 26. C 27. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述作者因长时间工作依赖咖啡因,后在医生建议下戒断咖啡因,过程虽艰难但最终收获身心改善的经历。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“But once I started working long hours from home, I soon needed a third cup of coffee just to feel the energy one used to give me. (但一旦我开始在家长时间工作,我很快就需要第三杯咖啡,才能感受到以前一杯咖啡带来的能量)”可知,作者开始大量饮用咖啡因是为了保持精力充沛。故选A项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Eventually, the bank (your body in this case) will want to cash-in, and this makes it much more likely for you to become tired, lose focus, and by the end of the day, want to achieve nothing. (最终,银行(这里指你的身体)会要求兑现,这会让你更容易感到疲惫、注意力不集中,到一天结束时,什么都不想做)”可知,根据Aragona医生的说法,咖啡因依赖的后果是身体倦怠。故选B项。
【26题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段中的“Of course, you will still get tired, but this is natural, because all caffeine is doing is saving that for later — and likely to a greater degree after you force your body into overdrive, (当然,你仍然会感到疲惫,但这是正常的,因为咖啡因所做的就是把那种感觉留到以后——而且在你强迫身体超负荷运转后,这种感觉可能会更强烈)”可知,that指代前文提到的“疲惫感”,即咖啡因只是暂时掩盖了疲惫,后续会更严重。故选C项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The first three days were awful. I felt extremely tired, had really terrible headaches, and could barely make it to 10 a.m. without wanting to take a nap. After about a week, I felt like a different person. By the end of the two weeks, I felt a lot more in control of my mind, body, and life. (最初的三天糟透了。我感到极度疲惫,头痛得厉害,不到上午10点就想打盹。大约一周后,我感觉像变了一个人。两周结束时,我感觉自己能更好地控制自己的思想、身体和生活)”可推断,作者戒断咖啡因的经历是痛苦但有回报的。故选C项。
C
The sharp fin. The rows upon rows of sharp teeth. The large black eyes. The sharks you see on television in Jaws or Discovery’s “Shark Week” are not the friendliest-looking creatures. They aren’t exactly an animal you want to find near you while swimming in the ocean. Despite their portrayals (刻画) in movies and popular culture, sharks are complex, misunderstood creatures that are weaker than they appear.
One very common misunderstanding about sharks is their desire to hunt humans. When sharks attack humans, it is because they mistake a human for their normal prey (猎物), seals or dolphins. They don’t seek out humans on purpose. Statistically, you are more likely to be struck by lightning than be bitten by a shark.
Sharks are very important to the ocean as they are at the top of the food chain. Some sharks even control the balance of an ecosystem through fear alone. Tiger sharks in Australia help protect seagrass meadows from turtles (海龟). Turtles eat the seagrass and without the sharks, they will destroy these meadows. When tiger sharks are present, though, the turtles are scared away, which controls their appetite for seagrass and promotes its growth.
Though sharks have a reputation (名声) for being very scary to humans, the sad truth is that they should be scared of humans. The number of sharks in the ocean is steadily dropping. There are a few reasons for this. For one, they mature quite slowly, over several years, and produce relatively few young. For another, overfishing of sharks is happening because more and more people want their fins. About 100 million sharks are killed every year according to National Geographic. Shark fin is a way for people to show off their wealth. Shark fins are also believed to have medicinal benefits, though there is no evidence or proof that they actually do. Both of these ideas are putting pressure on the number of sharks in the ocean.
28. What do most people think of sharks?
A. They are weak. B. They are ugly. C. They are complex. D. They are violent.
29. What does the author want to show by mentioning lightning in paragraph 2?
A. Shark attacks are rare. B. Sharks swim fast.
C. Shark bites are deadly. D. Sharks make mistakes.
30. Why are sharks important to the ocean?
A. They scare humans away. B. They control its food chain.
C. They maintain the ecological stability. D. They reduce the number of sea animals.
31. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. SOS: Save Our Sharks! B. Sharks: King of the Ocean
C. Shark Fins: An Ecological Crisis D. Sharks: Killers or Misunderstood?
【答案】28. D 29. A 30. C 31. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文纠正大众对鲨鱼凶猛袭人的误解,介绍鲨鱼维系海洋生态平衡的重要作用,指出人类过度捕捞正导致鲨鱼数量锐减。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The sharp fin. The rows upon rows of sharp teeth. The large black eyes. The sharks you see on television in Jaws or Discovery’s “Shark Week” are not the friendliest-looking creatures. They aren’t exactly an animal you want to find near you while swimming in the ocean.(锋利的鱼鳍。密密麻麻的锋利牙齿。硕大的黑色眼睛。你在《大白鲨》这部电影中看到的那些鲨鱼,或者在探索频道的“鲨鱼周”节目中看到的那些鲨鱼,并非长相最友善的生物。它们绝不是你想要在海底游泳时在身边出现的“伙伴”)”可知,大多数人认为鲨鱼很凶猛。故选D。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Statistically, you are more likely to be struck by lightning than be bitten by a shark.(从统计学角度来看,你被闪电击中的概率要高于被鲨鱼咬伤的概率)”可知,作者在第二段提及闪电这一内容,其目的想是表达鲨鱼袭击事件极为罕见。故选A。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Sharks are very important to the ocean as they are at the top of the food chain. Some sharks even control the balance of an ecosystem through fear alone.(鲨鱼对于海洋来说非常重要,因为它们处于食物链的顶端。有些鲨鱼甚至仅仅凭借其带来的恐惧就能对一个生态系统起到平衡作用)”可知,鲨鱼维持着生态的平衡,对海洋很重要。故选C。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Despite their portrayals (刻画) in movies and popular culture, sharks are complex, misunderstood creatures that are weaker than they appear.(尽管在电影和流行文化中对鲨鱼的刻画方式各不相同,但事实上鲨鱼是复杂且被误解的生物,它们的攻击力远不如其外表所显示的那样强大)”结合本文纠正大众对鲨鱼凶猛袭人的误解,介绍鲨鱼维系海洋生态平衡的重要作用,指出人类过度捕捞正导致鲨鱼数量锐减可知,D选项“鲨鱼:杀手还是被误解的生物?”最符合文章标题。故选D。
D
Catalina Coppel, 10, is aching to get a cell phone so she can be a social media butterfly. She says she’s the only person in her class without one and is looking forward to taking pictures to post on all the social media apps. Both her parents are worried. “If I can postpone it a little bit, it’ll be better for her mental health,” said her mother, Rosantina.
Research indicates there’s an increase in anxiety, depression and suicide in youth that is linked with increased social media use, according to Jessica Heldman at the University of San Diego School of Law Children’s Advocacy Institute. The organization is sponsoring (赞助) Assembly Bill 2408, which defines addiction as a mental health issue that may need treatment or intervention and aims to better hold social media companies responsible. It would allow parents to sue (起诉) social media companies like Instagram, TikTok and Snapchat for addicting children to their apps.
Suing social media companies is not new. The mother of Selena Rodriguez is among parents who’ve filed suit against Instagram and Snapchat. She claims her 11-year-old daughter died by suicide after developing an addiction to the social media apps.
City Heights parent Shaun Jones calls social media the “biggest drug known to man these days.” He not only sees the allure (诱惑) cell phones and apps have for his 8-year-old nephew, but his 2-year-old daughter as well. He was among the minority of people we talked to supporting a parent’s right to sue. “She’s only one click away from seeing something she should never see in her life,” said Jones.
San Diego High sophomore Clark Tansey says he uses social media for messaging but understands its draw. “It’s very easy to get too far in and lose consciousness,” he said.
Tansey’s father was among the parents concerned about a litigious (好诉讼的) society, citing the Johnny Depp-Amber Heard trial, saying it’s silly. They say parents should ultimately police their kids on social media, not the court of law.
32. Why is Catalina Coppel eager to get a cell phone?
A. To take photos of herself. B. To show off to her classmates.

As a result, you’ll feel exhausted mentally, physically, and emotionally.
Are you in any type of relationship where you are consistently worried about someone viewing you in a negative light because you ask for help? ____37____ When others respond to you in a consistently negative way when you ask for help or in an inconsistent way, meaning you don’t know if they’re going to be helpful or try to shame you, then this likely has more to do with them than it does with you.
____38____ We might burden ourselves with the thought that we need to make others happy and that it’s our duty to change how others feel. But the only person’s emotions that we are 100% responsible for or could hope to have control over are our own. We cannot control the inner experiences of anyone else. ____39____

I hear these clients express worry about others rejecting them or being thought of negatively if they are not consistently trying to make others happy.(我经常听到客户说,他们觉得需要把别人的舒适放在自己的舒适之上。我听到这些客户表示担心,如果他们不一直努力让别人开心,就会被别人拒绝或遭到负面看待)”以及下文“You may feel like you need to take on the majority of tasks at home, work, or in relationships in an effort to make others happy or view you in a positive light.(你可能会觉得自己需要承担起家庭、工作或人际关系中的大部分任务,努力让别人开心,或是让别人对你有好印象)”可知,本空要说读者也可能有和文中客户一样的这种行为模式,A项表示“你也可能陷入这些模式”能承上启下,且该选项中的You may与下文的You may相呼应。故选A。
【37题详解】

We cannot control the inner experiences of anyone else.(我们可能会给自己施加负担,认为自己需要让别人开心,并且有责任改变别人的感受。但我们唯一能100%负责或是有望掌控的,只有自己的情绪。我们无法控制任何人的内心感受)”可知,本空要引出人们对自我和他人的态度差异,为下文讲情绪的责任归属做铺垫,F项表示“然而,我们往往对自己比对别人更苛刻”能引出下文,符合题意。故选F。
【39题详解】
由上文“We might burden ourselves with the thought that we need to make others happy and that it’s our duty to change how others feel.

第二节 读后续写(满分25分)
67. 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。
On the afternoon of my eighteenth birthday, I was driving my dad’s old car around town, feeling absolutely free and excited. The sun was shining, and everything felt perfect. As I made a turn a bit too quickly, the worst thing happened. There was a loud, sharp sound of metal scraping (刮擦) against metal. My heart jumped into my throat — I had sideswiped a car parked by the pavement.
I stopped the car, my hands shaking on the wheel. I looked around nervously. The street was completely empty; no one had seen the accident. A powerful thought rushed into my head: “Just drive away. No one will ever know.” The car I hit was a beautiful, brand-new car, and the scratch along its door was long and deep. My own car only had a small bump. Panic filled me. I had worked hard to save money for my first semester’s college books, and I knew that money would be wiped out by this repair. The temptation to escape was overwhelming.
But then, I pictured my dad’s serious face. He had always taught me that taking responsibility for your actions was what defined a person. With a heart that felt like a heavy stone, I pulled over behind the car. I found a notebook and a pen in my backpack. My hands were trembling so much that the writing was messy. I wrote down my name, my phone number, my address, and a short apology. I tore out the page, walked back to the car, and carefully put the note under its windshield wiper. Driving home, I was consumed with fear already imagining the angry phone call and the financial trouble that would follow me to college.
The call came that evening. A woman’s voice, calm and steady, asked for me. “This is Mrs. Gable,” she said. “I’m calling about the note you left on my car.” I prepared for the worst and apologized in a rushed, nervous stream. She listened quietly until I finished. “The scratch on my car is quite noticeable,” she said, pausing. My stomach tightened into a knot, sure she was about to demand a huge payment. Then she added, her voice warming, “But so is your honesty.”
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。
I froze, not expecting such a response.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
That night, I told my dad everything.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文
I froze, not expecting such a response. Mrs. Gable’s gentle voice explained how her own son had once received similar grace after an accident. “Honesty matters more than any scratch,” she repeated, firmly declining my offer to pay. “Someone gave him a second chance back then, and now I’m giving you one.” Her final advice to “drive safer” lingered in my heart long after we hung up, filling me with warmth that melted all my earlier anxieties. Her unexpected forgiveness taught me that courage to be honest often meets with understanding.
That night, I told my dad everything. He leaned against the table, listening without interruption. When I finished, he pulled me into a hug — his arms steady, like always. “I’m proud of you,” he said in a firm voice. “You chose integrity over fear. That’s the mark of a man.” We talked for hours, about responsibility, about second chances, about how kindness spread around. Before bed, he handed me a check. “For your books,” he said gently. Dad was right — taking responsibility wasn’t a burden. It was freedom. And that birthday, I didn’t just grow older — I grew up.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了作者在18岁生日当天开车时不慎刮擦了一辆新车,在无人目睹的情况下,作者选择留下联系方式和道歉信。当晚,车主Mrs. Gable打来电话,她不仅没有责怪作者,反而称赞了作者的诚实,并给予了宽容和理解。作者深受感动,将此事告诉了父亲,父亲为作者的诚实感到骄傲,并给予了支持。这次经历让作者深刻体会到诚实和责任感的重要性。
【详解】1.段落续写:
