They were tied with a silk ribbon and addressed to her decades ago in my father’s neat handwriting. I couldn’t imagine my serious father ever writing anything like love letters. “Would you like me to read them to you?” Mom asked with a hint of a smile. The letters were written in 1974 over the course of a month when my father traveled to Italy to care for his beloved, sick mother, leaving his wife and me, their newborn daughter, behind in Toronto, the city my parents called home after immigrating to Canada from Italy in 1956. Growing up, my father was my hero and protector, but he was also a man of few words, part of a generation of immigrant men who worked hard for a better life. I sat back while my mother read his letters to me, and thought, “Who is this guy?” My father used endearing terms I had never heard him say. He referred to my mother as “my dearesr” and “my companion” who was always in his thoughts. In each letter, he enclosed a Canadian one-dollar bill for me and declared, “You and your mother are my life.” As children, we assume we know everything about our parents. But, sometimes, we find out that they were and are people with various facets. My father was proud and stubborn, and he married a woman who was his equal in that regard. During their 58-year marriage, their stubbornness often led to conflict. So it was bittersweet to hear my father’s youthful sentiments read aloud by my elderly mother with a wistful (留恋的) tone. I knew she was thinking about what could have been and what had been once upon a time. After she finished reading the letters, I held them in my hands and examined them like they were fossils. Although a man I knew as economical with his thoughts, he had filled the front and back of several pages. These letters are only part of their correspondence. My mother wrote back to my father. One day she will read those letters to me, she’s assured me. And just as with my father, they might help me discover another dimension of a parent I never knew before. 36. What kind of person did the author think her father was? A. Optimistic. B. Reserved. C. Sensitive. D. Romantic. 37. What can we know about the author’s family? A. Her mother was the family’s provider. B. She didn’t get on well with her father. C. Her parents were emigrants to Italy. D. Her parents shared similar personalities. 38. What does the underlined word “facets” in paragraph 6 most probably mean? A. Interests. B. Ideas. C. Sides. D. Possibilities. 39. How did the author feel when she heard the words in the letters? A. Surprised. B. Awkward. C. Thrilled. D. Heartbroken. 40. What did the author find out about her father through the letters? A. He was good at hiding his feelings. B. He regretted not being with his family. C. He was a loving husband and father. D. He was stubborn from the inside out. C Bad drivers in the District could soon get a serious warning sent straight to their cellphones. The city is working to identify drivers with a history of traffic violations, such as speeding and red-light carnet tickets, to send messages alerting them of their history of infractions （违规） while warning of their risks of getting into a fatal crash. City officials say they hope the pointed messages （定制信息） will deter dangerous road behaviors. "Wu know that there is a subset of drivers that are putting others at serious risk with excessive speeding and red-light running," said Jeff Marootian, director of the city's Department of Transportation, one of the agencies leading the effort. "We're hoping that this creative approach can ultimately reduce serious injury and fatality crashes.” "This is a creative approach that we haven't tried before, and we think that it is worth the effort," Marootian said. The concept, which D.C. officials say is a first among cities nationwide, is the latest effort to target dangerous drivers in a city where serious and fatal crashes are on the rise. City leaders said evidence shows drivers with multiple traffic violations are more likely to be involved in crashes. Researchers have studied the relationship between repeat traffic offenders and serious collisions （碰撞）,with some data suggesting a strong connection between the two. But some researchers also have pointed to other factors at play, such as the amount of time the driver spends on the road and exposure to traffic enforcement （强制性）systems. A team from The Lab led by Muriel E. Bowser, is examining data from the District's automated traffic enforcement program to predict a driver's likelihood of being involved in a serious crash. It will create a campaign that could include text messages and mail sent to a sample of high-risk drivers. "We will evaluate whether drivers who receive these messages have fewer red-light violations, speeding violations, and Ultimately, clashes, compared to the group of high-risk drivers who do not receive the messages," according to The Lab. The program is among the latest road-safety measures with the purpose of cutting the growing number of traffic injuries and fatalities. Although the new messages appear as a warning to higher-risk drivers city officials said the intent is to educate the recipient, Marootian said there is no violation or fine attached to the message and that the campaign is to use data to directly communicate with individual drivers. Some questioned whether the message will work. 41. What does the underlined word “deter” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Prevent. B. Change. C. Control. D. Handle. 42. What do we know about the approach to sending pointed messages? A. It may put the drivers at serious risk of crashing. B. It can identify drivers with records of traffic accidents. C. It will completely reduce serious injury and fatality crashes. D. It is the newest attempt in response to the rising crashes. 43. What can we infer from the fourth paragraph? A. Traffic offenders always cause serious accidents. B. New drivers bear less blame for serious collisions. C. Different elements may contribute to serious accidents. D. Traffic offenders should spend too much time on the road. 44. How do the team from The Lab know whether the approach works? A. By sending messages to the drivers. B. By comparing the impact of the approach on two groups. C. By predicting the possibility of a driver's involvement in a crash. D. By checking the response of the receivers who get the messages. 45. What is the text mainly about? A. A traffic report. B. A scientific method. C. A professional survey. D. A teaching program. 第Ⅱ卷(非选择题) 五、阅读表达：本大题共1小题，共10.0分。 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 In the animal kingdom, weakness can bring about aggression in other animals. This sometimes happens with humans also. But I have found that my weakness discloses the kindness in people. I see it every day when people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat. And I have discovered that it makes them happy. From my wheelchair experience, I see the best in people, but sometimes I feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness I see daily. They don’t get to see this soft side of others. Often, we try every way possible to avoid showing our weakness, which includes a lot of pretending. But only when we stop pretending we’re brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness that’s in them. Last month, when I was driving home on a busy highway, I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual. People behind me began to get impatient and angry, with some speeding up alongside me, horning (按喇叭) or even shouting at me. At the moment I decided to do something I had never done in twenty-four years of driving. I put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speed. No more angry shouts and no more horns! When I put on my flashlights, I was saying to other drivers, “I have a problem here. I am weak and doing the best I can.” And everyone understood. Several times, I saw drivers who wanted to pass. They couldn’t get around me because of the stream of passing traffic. But instead of getting impatient and angry, they waited, knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak. Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we don’t feel that way. But those are few and far between. More often, it would be better if we don’t pretend we feel strong when we feel weak or pretend that we are brave when we are scared. 46. When will people feel happy as the author has discovered ? (No more than 7 words) _____________________________________________________________________ 47. Why does the author feel sad sometimes in Paragraph 2? (No more than 12 words) _____________________________________________________________________ 48. What did the other drivers do when they saw the flashlights? (No more than 6 words) _____________________________________________________________________ 49. What does the underlined the sentence in the last paragraph probably mean?(No more than 5 words) _____________________________________________________________________ 50. What can we learn from the author’s experience?

They were tied with a silk ribbon and addressed to her decades ago in my father’s neat handwriting. I couldn’t imagine my serious father ever writing anything like love letters. “Would you like me to read them to you?” Mom asked with a hint of a smile. The letters were written in 1974 over the course of a month when my father traveled to Italy to care for his beloved, sick mother, leaving his wife and me, their newborn daughter, behind in Toronto, the city my parents called home after immigrating to Canada from Italy in 1956. Growing up, my father was my hero and protector, but he was also a man of few words, part of a generation of immigrant men who worked hard for a better life. I sat back while my mother read his letters to me, and thought, “Who is this guy?” My father used endearing terms I had never heard him say. He referred to my mother as “my dearesr” and “my companion” who was always in his thoughts. In each letter, he enclosed a Canadian one-dollar bill for me and declared, “You and your mother are my life.” As children, we assume we know everything about our parents. But, sometimes, we find out that they were and are people with various facets. My father was proud and stubborn, and he married a woman who was his equal in that regard. During their 58-year marriage, their stubbornness often led to conflict. So it was bittersweet to hear my father’s youthful sentiments read aloud by my elderly mother with a wistful (留恋的) tone. I knew she was thinking about what could have been and what had been once upon a time. After she finished reading the letters, I held them in my hands and examined them like they were fossils. Although a man I knew as economical with his thoughts, he had filled the front and back of several pages. These letters are only part of their correspondence. My mother wrote back to my father. One day she will read those letters to me, she’s assured me. And just as with my father, they might help me discover another dimension of a parent I never knew before. 36. What kind of person did the author think her father was? A. Optimistic. B. Reserved. C. Sensitive. D. Romantic. 37. What can we know about the author’s family? A. Her mother was the family’s provider. B. She didn’t get on well with her father. C. Her parents were emigrants to Italy. D. Her parents shared similar personalities. 38. What does the underlined word “facets” in paragraph 6 most probably mean? A. Interests. B. Ideas. C. Sides. D. Possibilities. 39. How did the author feel when she heard the words in the letters? A. Surprised. B. Awkward. C. Thrilled. D. Heartbroken. 40. What did the author find out about her father through the letters? A. He was good at hiding his feelings. B. He regretted not being with his family. C. He was a loving husband and father. D. He was stubborn from the inside out. 【答案】36. B 37. D 38. C 39. A 40. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者通过父亲写给母亲的信了解到了父亲温情的一面。 【36题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段的“I couldn’t imagine my serious father ever writing anything like love letters.(我无法想象我严肃的父亲会写情书之类的东西)”和第四段的“Growing up, my father was my hero and protector, but he was also a man of few words(在我的成长过程中，父亲是我的英雄和保护者，但他也是一个沉默寡言的人)”可推知，作者认为自己的父亲是一个保守的人，不善言辞，也不可能给母亲写情书之类的东西。故选B。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的“My father was proud and stubborn, and he married a woman who was his equal in that regard. (我父亲既骄傲又固执，他娶了一个在这方面和他不相上下的女人)”可知，作者的父母性格相似。故选D。 【38题详解】 词句猜测题。根据倒数第三段“As children, we assume we know everything about our parents. But, sometimes, we find out that they were and are people with various facets.(作为孩子，我们自以为知道父母的一切。但有时，我们会发现他们过去是，现在也是有着不同facets的人)”和最后一段的“And just as with my father, they might help me discover another dimension of a parent I never knew before.(就像我父亲一样，他们可能会帮助我发现我以前不知道的父母的另一个方面)”可知，facet与dimension的意思相近，即“方面，侧面”。划线部分是指当孩子了解父母后，会发现他们是有着不同侧面的人。故选C。 【39题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段的“I sat back while my mother read his letters to me, and thought, “Who is this guy?” My father used endearing terms I had never heard him say. (母亲给我读他的信时，我靠在椅背上，心想：“这家伙是谁?”我父亲用了一些我从未听他说过的可爱的词语)”可推知，听了父亲给母亲的信后作者感到惊讶。故选A。 【40题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的“I couldn’t imagine my serious father ever writing anything like love letters.(我无法想象我严肃的父亲会写情书之类的东西)”和第四段的“Growing up, my father was my hero and protector(在我的成长过程中，父亲是我的英雄和保护者)”可知，通过这些信，作者发现父亲是一位慈爱的丈夫和父亲。故选C。 C Bad drivers in the District could soon get a serious warning sent straight to their cellphones. The city is working to identify drivers with a history of traffic violations, such as speeding and red-light carnet tickets, to send messages alerting them of their history of infractions （违规） while warning of their risks of getting into a fatal crash. City officials say they hope the pointed messages （定制信息） will deter dangerous road behaviors. "Wu know that there is a subset of drivers that are putting others at serious risk with excessive speeding and red-light running," said Jeff Marootian, director of the city's Department of Transportation, one of the agencies leading the effort. "We're hoping that this creative approach can ultimately reduce serious injury and fatality crashes.” "This is a creative approach that we haven't tried before, and we think that it is worth the effort," Marootian said. The concept, which D.C. officials say is a first among cities nationwide, is the latest effort to target dangerous drivers in a city where serious and fatal crashes are on the rise. City leaders said evidence shows drivers with multiple traffic violations are more likely to be involved in crashes. Researchers have studied the relationship between repeat traffic offenders and serious collisions （碰撞）,with some data suggesting a strong connection between the two. But some researchers also have pointed to other factors at play, such as the amount of time the driver spends on the road and exposure to traffic enforcement （强制性）systems. A team from The Lab led by Muriel E. Bowser, is examining data from the District's automated traffic enforcement program to predict a driver's likelihood of being involved in a serious crash. It will create a campaign that could include text messages and mail sent to a sample of high-risk drivers. "We will evaluate whether drivers who receive these messages have fewer red-light violations, speeding violations, and Ultimately, clashes, compared to the group of high-risk drivers who do not receive the messages," according to The Lab. The program is among the latest road-safety measures with the purpose of cutting the growing number of traffic injuries and fatalities. Although the new messages appear as a warning to higher-risk drivers city officials said the intent is to educate the recipient, Marootian said there is no violation or fine attached to the message and that the campaign is to use data to directly communicate with individual drivers. Some questioned whether the message will work. 41. What does the underlined word “deter” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Prevent. B. Change. C. Control. D. Handle. 42. What do we know about the approach to sending pointed messages? A. It may put the drivers at serious risk of crashing. B. It can identify drivers with records of traffic accidents. C. It will completely reduce serious injury and fatality crashes. D. It is the newest attempt in response to the rising crashes. 43. What can we infer from the fourth paragraph? A. Traffic offenders always cause serious accidents. B. New drivers bear less blame for serious collisions. C. Different elements may contribute to serious accidents. D. Traffic offenders should spend too much time on the road. 44. How do the team from The Lab know whether the approach works? A. By sending messages to the drivers. B. By comparing the impact of the approach on two groups. C. By predicting the possibility of a driver's involvement in a crash. D. By checking the response of the receivers who get the messages. 45. What is the text mainly about? A. A traffic report. B. A scientific method. C. A professional survey. D. A teaching program. 【答案】41. A 42. B 43. C 44. B 45. B 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述华盛顿特区研究的一种新方法可以识别有超速、闯红灯等交通违章记录的司机，然后他们发送信息，提醒他们违章记录，并警告他们发生致命车祸的风险，从而希望这种方法可以减少严重伤害和致命事故。 【41题详解】 词义猜测题。根据下文“‘Wu know that there is a subset of drivers that are putting others at serious risk with excessive speeding and red-light running,’ said Jeff Marootian, director of the city's Department of Transportation, one of the agencies leading the effort. ‘We're hoping that this creative approach can ultimately reduce serious injury and fatality crashes.’”（ 吴知道，有一部分司机过度超速和闯红灯，给其他人带来了严重的风险，”该市交通运输部(Department of Transportation)主任杰夫·马鲁提安(Jeff Marootian)说。该部门是此次行动的牵头机构之一。“我们希望这种创造性的方法最终能减少严重伤害和致命事故。”）由此可推断上文的意思他们希望这些指定信息可以阻止危险的道路行为。故猜测deter意为“阻止”，同prevent 同义，故选A。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The city is working to identify drivers with a history of traffic violations, such as speeding and red-light carnet tickets, to send messages alerting them of their history of infractions （违规） while warning of their risks of getting into a fatal crash. ”（ 该市正在努力识别有超速、闯红灯等交通违章记录的司机，以便向他们发送信息，提醒他们违章记录，同时警告他们发生致命车祸的风险。）由此可知，发送指定信息的方法可以识别有交通违章记录的司机。故选B。 【43题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Researchers have studied the relationship between repeat traffic offenders and serious collisions （碰撞）,with some data suggesting a strong connection between the two. But some researchers also have pointed to other factors at play, such as the amount of time the driver spends on the road and exposure to traffic enforcement （强制性）systems. ”（ 研究人员研究了多次违规者和严重碰撞之间的关系，一些数据表明两者之间有很强的联系。但一些研究人员也指出，其他因素也在起作用，比如司机在道路上花费的时间和接触交通执法系统的时间。）由此可推断，造成严重事故有很多不同的因素，故选C。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“‘We will evaluate whether drivers who receive these messages have fewer red-light violations, speeding violations, and ultimately, clashes, compared to the group of high-risk drivers who do not receive the messages,’ according to The Lab. ”（ 该实验室表示：“我们将评估收到这些信息的司机，与没有收到这些信息的高危司机相比，是否有更少的闯红灯、超速和最终发生碰撞。”）由此可知，实验室是通过对比这一方法对两组司机的影响来判断这一方法是否有起作用的，故选B。 【45题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Bad drivers in the District could soon get a serious warning sent straight to their cellphones. The city is working to identify drivers with a history of traffic violations, such as speeding and red-light carnet tickets, to send messages alerting them of their history of infractions （违规） while warning of their risks of getting into a fatal crash. ”（ 华盛顿特区的高危司机很快就会收到直接发送到手机上的严重警告。该市正在努力识别有超速、闯红灯等交通违章记录的司机，以便向他们发送信息，提醒他们违章记录，同时警告他们发生致命车祸的风险。）和第二段最后一句“We're hoping that this creative approach can ultimately reduce serious injury and fatality crashes.”（ 我们希望这种创造性的方法最终能减少严重伤害和致命事故。”）以及第三段第一句“‘This is a creative approach that we haven't tried before, and we think that it is worth the effort,’ Marootian said. ”（ “这是一种创造性的方法，我们以前从未尝试过，我们认为这是值得的，”Marootian说。）由此可知，本文主要讲述一种科学的方法，可以识别有超速、闯红灯等交通违章记录的司机，然后他们发送信息，提醒他们违章记录，并警告他们发生致命车祸的风险。故选B。 【点睛】推理判断题的推断对象主要包括隐含意思、目标读者、观点态度、文章出处、写作意图等。以推断隐含意义的题目居多。推断隐含意义，即要求根据文章的某个句子、段落或全文所提供的事实进行逻辑推理，推断出作者没有提到、没有明说或者可能发生的事实。题干中常含infer（推断），suggest（暗示），imply（暗示），indicate（暗示），conclude（推断，得出结论）等词语。解此类题，首先找到相关信息，然后细读、理解相关信息的字面意义，最后结合语境和常识，在字面意义的基础上进行符合逻辑的推断，从而理解作者的言外之意。如小题3，根据第四段“Researchers have studied the relationship between repeat traffic offenders and serious collisions （碰撞）,with some data suggesting a strong connection between the two. But some researchers also have pointed to other factors at play, such as the amount of time the driver spends on the road and exposure to traffic enforcement （强制性）systems. ”（ 研究人员研究了多次违规者和严重碰撞之间的关系，一些数据表明两者之间有很强的联系。但一些研究人员也指出，其他因素也在起作用，比如司机在道路上花费的时间和接触交通执法系统的时间。）由此可推断，造成严重事故有很多不同的因素，故选C。 第Ⅱ卷(非选择题) 五、阅读表达：本大题共1小题，共10.0分。 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 In the animal kingdom, weakness can bring about aggression in other animals. This sometimes happens with humans also. But I have found that my weakness discloses the kindness in people. I see it every day when people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat. And I have discovered that it makes them happy. From my wheelchair experience, I see the best in people, but sometimes I feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness I see daily. They don’t get to see this soft side of others. Often, we try every way possible to avoid showing our weakness, which includes a lot of pretending. But only when we stop pretending we’re brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness that’s in them. Last month, when I was driving home on a busy highway, I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual. People behind me began to get impatient and angry, with some speeding up alongside me, horning (按喇叭) or even shouting at me. At the moment I decided to do something I had never done in twenty-four years of driving. I put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speed. No more angry shouts and no more horns! When I put on my flashlights, I was saying to other drivers, “I have a problem here. I am weak and doing the best I can.” And everyone understood. Several times, I saw drivers who wanted to pass. They couldn’t get around me because of the stream of passing traffic. But instead of getting impatient and angry, they waited, knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak. Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we don’t feel that way. But those are few and far between. More often, it would be better if we don’t pretend we feel strong when we feel weak or pretend that we are brave when we are scared. 46. When will people feel happy as the author has discovered ? (No more than 7 words) _____________________________________________________________________ 47. Why does the author feel sad sometimes in Paragraph 2? (No more than 12 words) _____________________________________________________________________ 48. What did the other drivers do when they saw the flashlights? (No more than 6 words) _____________________________________________________________________ 49. What does the underlined the sentence in the last paragraph probably mean?(No more than 5 words) _____________________________________________________________________ 50. What can we learn from the author’s experience? (No more than 20 words) _____________________________________________________________________ 【答案】46. When they offer their help to others. 47. Because some people miss the kindness the author sees every day. 48. They waited with patience. 49. But those situations are rare. 50. We should sometimes admit our weakness, let others know our situation and get help from others when necessary. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者结合自己的亲身经历，论述了人在暴露自己的软弱时，往往会激发他人表现出善良的一面，从而迸发出理解和帮助之心。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据首段中的“I see it every day when people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat. And I have discovered that it makes them happy. (我每天都看到人们为我开门，给我的咖啡倒奶油，或者帮我穿外套。我发现这让他们很开心)”可知，作者发现当别人为自己提供帮助时，这些人是开心的。故答案为When they offer their help to others. 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“From my wheelchair experience, I see the best in people, but sometimes I feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness I see daily. They don’t get to see this soft side of others. (从我的轮椅经历中，我看到了人们最好的一面，但有时我感到难过，因为那些看起来独立的人错过了我每天看到的善良。他们看不到别人软弱的一面。)”可知，作者伤心的原因是一些看似独立的人错过了自己每天在他人身上看到的善良。故答案为Because some people miss the kindness the author sees every day. 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“But instead of getting impatient and angry, they waited, knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak. (但他们没有变得不耐烦和生气，而是等待着，因为他们知道前面的司机在某种程度上是软弱的)”可知，当后面的司机看到作者打闪光灯时，他们不再不耐烦，而是耐心等待。故答案为They waited with patience. 【49题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线句子前的“Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we don’t feel that way. (有时情况要求我们表现得坚强和勇敢，即使我们并不这么认为)”可知，即使我们并不坚强也并不勇敢，形势会迫使我们那样表现；再根据划线句子后的“More often, it would be better if we don’t pretend we feel strong when we feel weak or pretend that we are brave when we are scared. (更多的时候，如果我们感到软弱的时候我们不假装坚强，或者当我们害怕的时候不假装勇敢，那会更好)”可知，更多的情况是，我们的感受和表现一致会更好。结合but可知，划线内容与上文为转折关系，所以该句的意思应为“要求我们表现的坚强而勇敢的形势并不多”，更多的时候是后者的情况。故答案为But those situations are rare. 【50题详解】 开放性试题。根据作者在拥挤的车流中打开车灯，表明自己遇到麻烦，从而得到其他司机的理解的经历，再结合第二段中的“Often, we try every way possible to avoid showing our weakness, which includes a lot of pretending. But only when we stop pretending we’re brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness that’s in them.(通常，我们会想尽一切办法避免暴露自己的弱点，其中包括很多伪装。但只有当我们不再假装自己勇敢或坚强时，我们才允许人们表现出他们内心的善良。)”可推知，我们能够学到的是：必要时不必假装勇敢或坚强，应承认自己的软弱，让别人知道我们的情况，从而得到他人的帮助。故答案为We should sometimes admit our weakness, let others know our situation and get help from others when necessary. 六、书面表达：本大题共1小题，共15分。 51. 假设你是晨光中学的李津。你校于12月24日举办了一个主题为“Read the word and the world”英语读书节活动，你的英国朋友Chris很想了解该活动。请你给Chris回一封电子邮件，介绍有关情况，内容包括： （1）英语读书节活动内容（每人须读完一篇学校指定的英文故事，读后活动包括故事复述、读后感交流等）； （2）对活动感受； （3）对明年读书节的期待。 注意： （1）词数不少于100； （2）可适当加入细节，使内容充实、行文连贯； （3）开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 参考词汇： 读书节Reading Day Dear Chris, ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Jin 【答案】Dear Chris, On December 24th, our school organized an English Reading Day with the theme of "Read the Word and the world". Knowing that you are very interested in this activity, I am writing to tell you about the details of it. In this activity, each student must read one English story assigned by the school, after which they should retell the story and exchange their impressions of the story after reading.
