Passage 1
My dream in life is to become a doctor. I think that a doctor is one of the most important 1 in the world. Most people are busy working every day. They 2 have little time to relax or do exercise. Lots of them are in 3 health because they don’t take good care of themselves. I would like to help them get 4 again.
In fact, I first had the idea of becoming a doctor when I was little. At that time, I liked to play the doctor-patient game with my friends. I would 5 feel happy when my “patient” got cured (治愈). Doctors are very 6 to society (社会). If there were no 7 , who would cure the people in poor health?
However, it’s not 8 to be a doctor. I need to go to university to learn a lot. I will study hard to improve my skills. As a doctor, I’m going to try my best to 9 my patients. I’ll always be there with them when they need me. Even if they don’t have enough 10 , I’m still going to help them. I believe saving a life has never been about making money. I really want to become a doctor because doctors can help others, and it really makes me happy.

Even if we don’t score, at least we know that we have tried our best. So, boys, don’t think too much. It doesn’t matter 6 we lose. Just do it.”
Well, in the last minute of the game, we 7 scored and two teams tied (打成平局)! We went into overtime (加时赛) and we lost in the end. But after the game, the coach hugged all of us. He told us that he was 8 because he had never seen a team try harder than us.

What makes a great team? Different people have different ideas. In my opinion, a great team needs several important 1 .
First of all, teamwork is the basis. Every member should know that they are part of the team, not an individual. They should 2 each other and work together to achieve the goal. 3 one is perfect, but everyone has their own strengths. A good team can make full use of these strengths.
Second, good communication is necessary. Team members should 4 their feelings and ideas openly. If there are problems, they should talk about them instead of keeping silent. Listening is also important. We should listen to others’ advice 5 .
Third, a great team needs leaders. The leaders should be 6 , responsible and encouraging. They should not only set a good example, but also help members solve problems. They should encourage everyone to 7 their best.
Fourth, a positive attitude is very important. No team can win all the games. When they fail, they should not be 8 . Instead, they should learn from the failure and try again. A team with a positive spirit can face any difficulty.

【导语】本文论述了构成一个优秀团队所需的几个重要品质,包括团队合作,良好沟通,优秀的领导者和积极的态度,并强调了“团队合作就是力量”这一核心观点。

4. 句意:团队成员应该公开分享他们的感受和想法。良好的沟通意味着要“分享”(share)彼此的感受和想法,这与后文的“openly”(公开地)相呼应。

After school, we worked together 5 , sharing glue, scissors, and even our snacks.
The biggest 6 was to introduce our design to everyone. Tom was too shy to 7 . Lily and I practised with him every night, saying, “You’ve got this!” On that day, we stood 8 and smiled. When Ms Chen praised our “creative and ecofriendly design”, we felt 9 . “This is our success!” Tom shouted.

此处表示“当众发言、演讲”,强调开口说话的动作。speak(发言、演讲)用于表示“当众讲话”,符合语境,正确。

得到老师的表扬,团队会产生自豪的情绪。proud(自豪的):符合“获奖、被表扬”的积极情绪。

Instead, he sat down next to me and 4 to me patiently. He told me that they were strict with me because they loved me and wanted me to have a good future.

After that talk, I realized my parents’ love. I learned to 5 with them. I told them my feelings and they listened to me. We made a 6 : I would study hard, and they would allow me to play basketball twice a week.

However, it’s not 8 to be a doctor. I need to go to university to learn a lot. I will study hard to improve my skills. As a doctor, I’m going to try my best to 9 my patients. I’ll always be there with them when they need me. Even if they don’t have enough 10 , I’m still going to help them. I believe saving a life has never been about making money.

Passage 3
Some people have no interest in sports. They think that sports make them tired and smell 1 . They say, “Why waste time playing sports?” To these people, I politely say, “You have not discovered the 2 of sports!”
Let me share with you a basketball game I played two weeks ago. Our parents and friends were there to 3 us. A lot of people were watching. We all wanted to 4 the game in front of so many people.
The game was nearly over and we were one point behind. Our 5 called us together and said, “Okay, this is it! Either we score now or the game is over. Let’s work hard to score. Even if we don’t score, at least we know that we have tried our best. So, boys, don’t think too much. It doesn’t matter 6 we lose. Just do it.”
Well, in the last minute of the game, we 7 scored and two teams tied (打成平局)! We went into overtime (加时赛) and we lost in the end. But after the game, the coach hugged all of us. He told us that he was 8 because he had never seen a team try harder than us.
To be honest, I have a lot of pleasure in playing sports. It makes me happy and comfortable. That’s 9 I play sports whenever I get the chance. So my advice is to choose a 10 and keep doing it. Your body will thank you and your mind will be ready to work well.
