Many teenagers spend their free time hanging out with friends or scrolling through social media, but Tiffany Gay, an 18-year-old student at Orlando Science Schools, spent hers developing a device that could potentially help millions of people.
“Growing up, I actually lived with my aunt who had a vision problem, and I watched as her eyesight declined over time. And seeing that made me realize that there was a lack of technologies out there that were able to help those with visual disabilities adapt to their circumstances,” said Gay.
Through years of trial and error, Tiffany developed a wearable device that uses LIDAR, a very common type of sensor, to map an area and then uses vibrations (振动) to warn the wearer when there are obstacles and other things in their path. As they get closer, the vibrations get stronger.
The technology on Tiffany’s visor appeals to more than just the sense of touch. She has the lights to indicate distance. As you get closer, you’ll see the light turn red. As you get moderately far away, you’ll see the light turn blue. And as you get really far away, it should turn green. And the different lights symbolize how intense the vibration may be.
Tiffany has been working on this project for the past three years. “A lot of crazy ideas, but in that time, I was able to create different models. I’ve been able to make it a lot more efficient over these past three years, and I’m also working on raising fund to get my patent.” said Gay.
Her invention now costs around $200, which is quite reasonable for medical assistance devices, but Tiffany wants to make it even more accessible to people. She said, “Decreasing the price is a significant change I want to make. But, what I really want is making it accessible to the countries where we have the highest percentage of people who are visually impaired.”
24. What inspired Tiffany Gay to invent the device?
A. Her aunt’s visual declining.
B. Her parents’ encouragement.
C. Her own interest in invention.
D. Her sympathy for elderly people.
25. What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A. The materials of the device.
B. The limitation of the device.
C. The working principle of the device.
D. The inventing process of the device.
26. Which of the following words can best describe Tiffany Gay?
A. Kind and creative. B. Curious and honest.
C. Brave and generous. D. Determined and loyal.
27. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. The Application of LIDAR Sensors
B. A Student’s Dream of Starting a Business
C. Tiffany Gay: a Pioneer in Wearable Technology
D. A Teen’s Invention for People with Visual disabilities
C
A global agreement designed to protect the world’s oceans is set to become international law. Morocco became the 60th country to sign The High Seas Treaty on Friday, meaning that it will come into force. The deal, which has been two decades in the making, will pave the way for international waters to be placed into marine (海洋的) protected areas.
“Covering more than two-thirds of the ocean, the agreement sets official rules to protect and sustainably use marine biodiversity.” United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Gutters said.
Decades of over-fishing, pollution from shipping and warming oceans from climate change have damaged life below the surface. In the latest assessment of marine species, nearly 10% were found to be at a risk of extinction, according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature.
But protecting the high seas is challenging. No one country controls these waters and all nations have a right to ship and fish there. At present just 1% of the high seas are protected, leaving marine life at a risk of over-exploitation. So, in 2023, countries signed the High Seas Treaty, promising to put 30% of these waters into Marine Protected Areas. But it could only come into force if at least 60 nations officially approved it.
Mad Christian, executive director of Greenpeace International, called it “a landmark moment” and “proof that countries can come together to protect our blue planet”. “The era of overuse and destruction must end. Our oceans can’t wait, neither can we.” he added.
Once the treaty comes into force, countries will propose areas to be protected, and this will then be voted on by the countries that sign up to the treaty.
28. What is required for The High Seas Treaty to take effect?
A. Achievement of the sea protection goal. B. Official agreement from at least 60 nations.
C. Two decades of negotiation and preparation. D. Morocco’s role as the final approving nation.
29. Why does the author mention “1%” and “30%” in paragraph 4?
A. To stress the significance of the treaty. B. To uncover the over-fishing phenomenon.
C. To show the achievements in ocean protection. D. To indicate different opinions among countries.
30. What is the Mad’s attitude to the treaty?
A. Neutral. B. Critical. C. Negative. D. Supportive.
31. Which can be the best title for the passage?
A. Ocean Problems and the Call for Action
B. The High Seas Treaty: New Rules for Fishing
C. A Landmark Step: Global Ocean Treaty to Take Effect
D. How Countries Are Working Together to Save Ocean Life
D
However good the rest of that joke might be, the one thing we know for sure is that the person hearing a joke is far more likely to laugh if they are in the company of others, compared to being alone. Studies have shown that people are 30 times easier to laugh in company than when on their own. Laughter is a social behavior. It is infectious(有感染力的) and is caused by other people’s presence and their laughter. In fact, try listening to laughter, not the joke that produced it. It’s more than likely that you will find yourself beginning to laugh along in response.
There appear to be two different sorts of laughter. There is the involuntary laugh, which is unlikely to be stopped. This sort of laughter is characterized by its length — it can continue for longer than you think you can bear, and the laugh contains major changes in pitch (音调) with a very high top note. And then there’s social laughter, the sort of laugh people give when they want to accept something. This polite laughter is characterized by less obvious pitch changes. Psychologists have established that people are good at telling the difference between these two different sorts of laughter. However, the ability to distinguish them is something we learn. A child cannot tell what is voluntary and what is social laughter.
It is proved that the ability to understand laughter seems to be particularly relevant in happily married couples. Studies have shown that couples with lasting happy marriages use laughter as a way of dealing with the everyday stresses of married life. So the couple that laughs together, stays together.
Laughter has developed to create and maintain the social groups that are necessary for us to advance, and it helps us to feel better by providing a way out for many of the difficult emotions that are unavoidable when living with other people. In fact, it’s a kind of glue that holds human societies together.
32. In what situation are people easier to laugh?
A. Being alone. B. Hearing a really funny joke.
C. Staying with their beloved pets. D. Listening to others’ infectious laughter.
33. Which of the following is a kind of involuntary laughter?
A. Polite laughter. B. Social laughter.
C. High-pitched laughter. D. Controllable laughter.
34. What is the connection between laughter and marriage?
A. No laughter, no marriage.
B. More laughter, happier marriage.
C. Laughter comes before marriage.
D. Laughter is easy, while marriage is difficult.
35. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning laughter?
A. Laughter is a necessity for human survival.
B. Laughter is a good way to deal with negative emotions.
C. Laughter helps people make more contributions to the society.
D. Laughter was created by some social groups to avoid bad emotions.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之成为一篇完整的短文。
Alice was a senior high school student who lived at home with her parents rather than living in the school dorm. Every day, her mom Coco would nag (唠叨) her a lot, and this had lasted for years.
In the morning, before Alice went to school, Coco would stand by the door and say, “Alice, don’t use your phone when the teacher is talking.” When Alice came back home after school, Coco would keep asking, “Did you make any new friends at school? Getting along well with your classmates is really important.” Sometimes, she would also say, “Tell me something interesting that happened at school today.”
At first, Alice tried to listen patiently. But as time went by, she got more and more tired of Coco’s nagging. She often thought, “Mom talks too much. I wish I could go to a university in another city. That way, she won’t nag me all the time.”
Two years later, Alice’s dream came true. She was admitted to a university far away from home. However, one month before she left, Coco started nagging again, this time about her college life.“Remember to wash your clothes regularly in college. Study hard but also take care of your health,” Coco would repeat every day. Alice felt even more annoyed. When the day came for her to leave home, she was very happy, thinking she would finally be free from her mom’s nagging.
But things didn’t go as Alice expected at college. One roommate liked to stay up late watching movies, and the other often left her things everywhere. Alice didn’t know how to get along with them. Besides, she had no idea how to manage her spare time meaningfully. She didn’t have many friends there. Her heart was brimming with a feeling of being alone.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题纸相应位置作答。
One evening, Alice found herself missing the very words she used to hate.

Alice felt much better after talking to her mom on the phone.

Many teenagers spend their free time hanging out with friends or scrolling through social media, but Tiffany Gay, an 18-year-old student at Orlando Science Schools, spent hers developing a device that could potentially help millions of people.
“Growing up, I actually lived with my aunt who had a vision problem, and I watched as her eyesight declined over time. And seeing that made me realize that there was a lack of technologies out there that were able to help those with visual disabilities adapt to their circumstances,” said Gay.
Through years of trial and error, Tiffany developed a wearable device that uses LIDAR, a very common type of sensor, to map an area and then uses vibrations (振动) to warn the wearer when there are obstacles and other things in their path. As they get closer, the vibrations get stronger.
The technology on Tiffany’s visor appeals to more than just the sense of touch. She has the lights to indicate distance. As you get closer, you’ll see the light turn red. As you get moderately far away, you’ll see the light turn blue. And as you get really far away, it should turn green. And the different lights symbolize how intense the vibration may be.
Tiffany has been working on this project for the past three years. “A lot of crazy ideas, but in that time, I was able to create different models. I’ve been able to make it a lot more efficient over these past three years, and I’m also working on raising fund to get my patent.” said Gay.
Her invention now costs around $200, which is quite reasonable for medical assistance devices, but Tiffany wants to make it even more accessible to people. She said, “Decreasing the price is a significant change I want to make. But, what I really want is making it accessible to the countries where we have the highest percentage of people who are visually impaired.”
24. What inspired Tiffany Gay to invent the device?
A. Her aunt’s visual declining.
B. Her parents’ encouragement.
C. Her own interest in invention.
D. Her sympathy for elderly people.
25. What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A. The materials of the device.
B. The limitation of the device.
C. The working principle of the device.
D. The inventing process of the device.
26. Which of the following words can best describe Tiffany Gay?
A. Kind and creative. B. Curious and honest.
C. Brave and generous. D. Determined and loyal.
27. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. The Application of LIDAR Sensors
B. A Student’s Dream of Starting a Business
C. Tiffany Gay: a Pioneer in Wearable Technology
D. A Teen’s Invention for People with Visual disabilities
【答案】24. A 25. C 26. A 27. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了18岁学生Tiffany Gay为帮助视障人士发明可穿戴设备并努力改进推广的故事。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Growing up, I actually lived with my aunt who had a vision problem, and I watched as her eyesight declined over time. And seeing that made me realize that there was a lack of technologies out there that were able to help those with visual disabilities adapt to their circumstances (在我的成长过程中,我实际上和一位视力有问题的阿姨住在一起,我看着她的视力随着时间的推移而下降。看到这一点让我意识到,目前缺乏能够帮助视力残疾者适应环境的技术)”可知,Tiffany Gay发明这个设备的灵感来自于她阿姨视力下降。故选A。

A global agreement designed to protect the world’s oceans is set to become international law. Morocco became the 60th country to sign The High Seas Treaty on Friday, meaning that it will come into force. The deal, which has been two decades in the making, will pave the way for international waters to be placed into marine (海洋的) protected areas.
“Covering more than two-thirds of the ocean, the agreement sets official rules to protect and sustainably use marine biodiversity.” United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Gutters said.
Decades of over-fishing, pollution from shipping and warming oceans from climate change have damaged life below the surface. In the latest assessment of marine species, nearly 10% were found to be at a risk of extinction, according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature.
But protecting the high seas is challenging. No one country controls these waters and all nations have a right to ship and fish there. At present just 1% of the high seas are protected, leaving marine life at a risk of over-exploitation. So, in 2023, countries signed the High Seas Treaty, promising to put 30% of these waters into Marine Protected Areas. But it could only come into force if at least 60 nations officially approved it.
Mad Christian, executive director of Greenpeace International, called it “a landmark moment” and “proof that countries can come together to protect our blue planet”. “The era of overuse and destruction must end. Our oceans can’t wait, neither can we.” he added.
Once the treaty comes into force, countries will propose areas to be protected, and this will then be voted on by the countries that sign up to the treaty.
28. What is required for The High Seas Treaty to take effect?
A. Achievement of the sea protection goal. B. Official agreement from at least 60 nations.
C. Two decades of negotiation and preparation. D. Morocco’s role as the final approving nation.
29. Why does the author mention “1%” and “30%” in paragraph 4?
A. To stress the significance of the treaty. B. To uncover the over-fishing phenomenon.
C. To show the achievements in ocean protection. D. To indicate different opinions among countries.
30. What is the Mad’s attitude to the treaty?
A. Neutral. B. Critical. C. Negative. D. Supportive.
31. Which can be the best title for the passage?
A. Ocean Problems and the Call for Action
B. The High Seas Treaty: New Rules for Fishing
C. A Landmark Step: Global Ocean Treaty to Take Effect
D. How Countries Are Working Together to Save Ocean Life
【答案】28. B 29. A 30. D 31. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。本文报道了随着摩洛哥的签署,《公海条约》满足生效条件,将成为国际法,旨在保护海洋生物多样性并结束对公海的过度开发。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“But it could only come into force if at least 60 nations officially approved it.(但只有当至少60个国家正式批准该协议后,它才能生效)”可知,《公海条约》要生效需要至少60个国家的正式同意。故选B。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“At present just 1% of the high seas are protected, leaving marine life at a risk of over-exploitation. So, in 2023, countries signed the High Seas Treaty, promising to put 30% of these waters into Marine Protected Areas.(目前,公海仅有1%得到了保护,这使得海洋生物面临着过度开发的风险。因此,在2023年,各国签署了《公海条约》,承诺将这些海域的30%划定为海洋保护区)”可知,作者在第四段中提及“1%”和“30%”是为了强调该条约的重要性。故选A。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“Mad Christian, executive director of Greenpeace International, called it “a landmark moment” and “proof that countries can come together to protect our blue planet”. “The era of overuse and destruction must end. Our oceans can’t wait, neither can we.” he added.(绿色和平国际组织的执行董事马德·克里斯蒂安称这一事件为“具有里程碑意义的时刻”,并表示“这证明各国能够携手保护我们美丽的蓝色星球”。他还补充道:“过度使用和破坏的时代必须终结。我们的海洋不能等待,我们也不能等待。”)”可知,Mad是支持态度。故选D。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“A global agreement designed to protect the world’s oceans is set to become international law. Morocco became the 60th country to sign The High Seas Treaty on Friday, meaning that it will come into force. The deal, which has been two decades in the making, will pave the way for international waters to be placed into marine (海洋的) protected areas.(一项旨在保护全球海洋的全球性协议即将成为国际法。摩洛哥于周五成为第60个签署《公海条约》的国家,这意味着该协议将正式生效。这项历经二十年筹备的协议将为将国际水域纳入海洋保护区铺平道路)”结合本文报道了随着摩洛哥的签署,《公海条约》满足生效条件,将成为国际法,旨在保护海洋生物多样性并结束对公海的过度开发。可知,C选项“具有里程碑意义的举措:全球海洋条约即将生效”最符合文章标题。故选C。
D
However good the rest of that joke might be, the one thing we know for sure is that the person hearing a joke is far more likely to laugh if they are in the company of others, compared to being alone. Studies have shown that people are 30 times easier to laugh in company than when on their own. Laughter is a social behavior. It is infectious(有感染力的) and is caused by other people’s presence and their laughter. In fact, try listening to laughter, not the joke that produced it. It’s more than likely that you will find yourself beginning to laugh along in response.
There appear to be two different sorts of laughter. There is the involuntary laugh, which is unlikely to be stopped. This sort of laughter is characterized by its length — it can continue for longer than you think you can bear, and the laugh contains major changes in pitch (音调) with a very high top note. And then there’s social laughter, the sort of laugh people give when they want to accept something. This polite laughter is characterized by less obvious pitch changes. Psychologists have established that people are good at telling the difference between these two different sorts of laughter. However, the ability to distinguish them is something we learn. A child cannot tell what is voluntary and what is social laughter.
It is proved that the ability to understand laughter seems to be particularly relevant in happily married couples. Studies have shown that couples with lasting happy marriages use laughter as a way of dealing with the everyday stresses of married life. So the couple that laughs together, stays together.
Laughter has developed to create and maintain the social groups that are necessary for us to advance, and it helps us to feel better by providing a way out for many of the difficult emotions that are unavoidable when living with other people. In fact, it’s a kind of glue that holds human societies together.
32. In what situation are people easier to laugh?

【答案】32. D 33. C 34. B 35. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文,文章主要介绍了两种笑声以及笑的作用。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“However good the rest of that joke might be, the one thing we know for sure is that the person hearing a joke is far more likely to laugh if they are in the company of others, compared to being alone. Studies have shown that people are 30 times easier to laugh in company than when on their own. Laughter is a social behavior. It is infectious (有感染力的) and is caused by other people’s presence and their laughter.(不管这个笑话的其余部分有多好,我们可以肯定的是,与一个人相比,听到笑话的人在别人的陪伴下更有可能笑。研究表明,人们在别人面前笑的几率是独自一人时的30倍。笑是一种社会行为。它是有感染力的,是由其他人的存在和他们的笑声引起的)”可知,人们在听到别人有染力的笑声时更容易笑,故选D。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“There is the involuntary laugh, which is unlikely to be stopped. This sort of laughter is characterized by its length — it can continue for longer than you think you can bear, and the laugh contains major changes in pitch (音调) with a very high top note.(有一种不由自主的笑声,不太可能停止。这种笑声的特点是它的长度——它可以持续的时间比你认为你可以忍受的长,笑声包含音调的主要变化和一个非常高的最高音符)”可知,音调高的笑声是不由自主的笑声,故选C。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“It is proved that the ability to understand laughter seems to be particularly relevant in happily married couples. Studies have shown that couples with lasting happy marriages use laughter as a way of dealing with the everyday stresses of married life. So the couple that laughs together, stays together.(事实证明,理解笑声的能力似乎与幸福的已婚夫妇特别相关。研究表明,拥有长久幸福婚姻的夫妇用笑来应对婚姻生活的日常压力。所以一起笑的情侣,就会一直在一起)”可知,笑声越多,婚姻越幸福,故选B。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段内容“Laughter has developed to create and maintain the social groups that are necessary for us to advance, and it helps us to feel better by providing a way out for many of the difficult emotions that are unavoidable when living with other people.(笑已经发展到创造和维持社会群体,这是我们进步所必需的,它通过为与他人生活时不可避免的许多困难情绪提供一条出路,帮助我们感觉更好)”可知,本段主要讲述笑是处理负面情绪的好方法,故选B。

【36题详解】
根据上文“While the tech industry is always advertising the next hot device, the reality is that you already own a lot of amazing tool. And you can certainly do much more with all the devices you already own.(虽然科技行业总是在宣传下一个热门设备,但现实是,你已经拥有了很多令人惊叹的工具。当然,你可以用现有的设备做更多的事情)”可知,本句为本段最后一句,属于过渡句,承接上文说明如何利用现有的设备,同时启示下文的使用方法。故E选项“下面是如何利用它们让今天的生活更美好的方法!”符合语境,故选E。
【37题详解】

On a Mac, press command, control and the space bar at the same time to reveal the emojis.(笑脸不只是出现在手机短信上。你可以在很多程序中使用表情符号。在Windows电脑上,同时按“Windows”键和“句号”键。在Mac电脑上,同时按command、control和空格键就可以显示表情符号)”可知,本段的主旨是使用表情符号,B选项Emojis对应后文emojis。故B选项“在你的电脑上寻找表情符号”符合语境,故选B。
【38题详解】
根据上文“If you have a smart speaker such as Apple HomePod or Google Nest, you’re probably asking Siri or Google Assistant to set timers, play music, switch lights on and off.(如果你有苹果HomePod或谷歌Nest这样的智能音箱,你可能会让Siri或谷歌Assistant设置计时器、播放音乐、开关灯)”以及后文“You can use them as a convenient translation device. With a Google speaker, say “Hey Google, interpret French”. Then just speak to hear your words translated. Apple HomePod, also known as Siri, will translate what you say from English.(你可以把它们当作一种方便的翻译工具。用谷歌扬声器,说“Hey谷歌,翻译法语”。然后开口说话,听人翻译你的话。苹果的Home Pod,也就是Siri,会把你说的话从英语翻译出来)”可知,上文列举了设备具有的音箱功能,后文给出了具体的使用方法,C选项中speaker对应后文speaker。故C选项“但是这些扬声器要聪明得多”符合语境,故选C。
【39题详解】
根据后文“In the YouTube app, for example, if you tap on any actively playing video, you’ll see a WiFi symbol in its corner. That’s the button, and tapping it will let you play whatever video you’re watching on any matched TV or display around you.(例如,在YouTube应用程序中,如果你点击任何正在播放的视频,你会在其角落看到一个WiFi符号。这是一个按钮,点击它,你就可以在你周围任何匹配的电视或显示器上播放你正在看的视频)”可知,后文讲述了如何在周围任何匹配的电视或显示器上播放正在观看的任何视频,即将手机上的内容转移到更大的屏幕上。故G选项“在智能电视上,将手机应用程序中的内容投射到更大的屏幕上非常容易”符合语境,故选G。
【40题详解】
根据上文“Many modern smart TVs and streaming devices have remotes with built-in microphones. Just hold down the microphone button and say what you want to watch, launch streaming channels and more.(许多现代智能电视和流媒体设备都有内置麦克风的遥控器。只要按住麦克风按钮,说出你想看什么,启动流媒体频道和更多)”可知,上文主要说明了使用麦克风,即通过声音来做一些操作。F选项中microphone对应上文microphone。故F选项“你也可以按住麦克风按钮,用你的声音打字”符合语境,故选F。

【解析】
【导语】文章以《国家宝藏》系列节目为切入点,聚焦中国文物修复与文化遗产保护的现状与意义。
【56题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:近年来,中国的《国家宝藏》系列取得了巨大成功,唤起了公众对文化遗产的兴趣。空格处应该用非谓语动词作状语,句子的主语China’s “National Treasure”与动词arouse之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词arousing作状语。
【57题详解】
考查形容词。句意:该节目以一种戏剧化的方式呈现古代文物,让普通人更容易与历史产生联系。空格处修饰名词way,需要用形容词形式;drama是名词,其形容词形式是dramatic,表示“戏剧化的;引人注目的”。
【58题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:让普通人更容易与历史产生联系。“make it+形容词+for sb. to do sth.”是固定句型,其中it是形式宾语,真正的宾语是后面的动词不定式,所以填to connect。
【59题详解】
考查动词时态和语态。句意:其中最令人印象深刻的一集聚焦于一尊商代青铜雕像,这尊雕像已经损坏并丢失了几个世纪。空格处是定语从句的谓语动词,statue与动词damage之间是被动关系,且“损坏”这个动作发生在“节目聚焦”之前,是过去的过去,所以用过去完成时的被动语态,结构为“had been+过去分词”。
【60题详解】
考查连词。句意:专家们花了数年时间修复它,最终才在博物馆展出。根据语境“先修复,后展出”,空格处应该填入一个连词引导时间状语从句,表示“在……之前”,所以用连词before,强调修复过程的漫长。
【61题详解】
考查介词。句意:对他们来说,这尊雕像不仅仅是一件文物;它是连接过去和现在的桥梁。between...and...是固定短语,意为“在……和……之间”,所以填介词between。
【62题详解】
考查名词。句意:多亏了他们的努力,这尊雕像现在自豪地矗立在大厅里,来自世界各地的游客都可以欣赏它。根据空格处前面Thanks to their可知,空格处应该用名词作宾语,effort表示“努力”时是可数名词,由their可知应该用复数形式efforts。
【63题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:多亏了他们的努力,这尊雕像现在自豪地矗立在大厅里,来自世界各地的游客都可以欣赏它。空格处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是the hall,关系词在从句中作地点状语,所以用关系副词where。
【64题详解】
考查名词。句意:“我们感到有责任保护这些珍宝,”一位修复师说,并补充说每一道划痕都讲述了一个故事。空格处前面有介词of,需要用名词形式作宾语;responsible是形容词,其名词形式是responsibility,表示“责任;职责”。
【65题详解】
考查副词。句意:因此,政府发起了一项培训更多年轻修复师的活动,希望不仅传承技能,还传承奉献精神。空格前后是因果关系 (文物面临风险,因此政府采取行动),有逗号隔开,所以用副词therefore表示“因此;所以”,注意句首单词首字母大写。

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之成为一篇完整的短文。
Alice was a senior high school student who lived at home with her parents rather than living in the school dorm. Every day, her mom Coco would nag (唠叨) her a lot, and this had lasted for years.
In the morning, before Alice went to school, Coco would stand by the door and say, “Alice, don’t use your phone when the teacher is talking.” When Alice came back home after school, Coco would keep asking, “Did you make any new friends at school? Getting along well with your classmates is really important.” Sometimes, she would also say, “Tell me something interesting that happened at school today.”
At first, Alice tried to listen patiently. But as time went by, she got more and more tired of Coco’s nagging. She often thought, “Mom talks too much. I wish I could go to a university in another city. That way, she won’t nag me all the time.”
Two years later, Alice’s dream came true. She was admitted to a university far away from home. However, one month before she left, Coco started nagging again, this time about her college life.“Remember to wash your clothes regularly in college. Study hard but also take care of your health,” Coco would repeat every day. Alice felt even more annoyed. When the day came for her to leave home, she was very happy, thinking she would finally be free from her mom’s nagging.
But things didn’t go as Alice expected at college. One roommate liked to stay up late watching movies, and the other often left her things everywhere. Alice didn’t know how to get along with them. Besides, she had no idea how to manage her spare time meaningfully. She didn’t have many friends there. Her heart was brimming with a feeling of being alone.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题纸相应位置作答。
One evening, Alice found herself missing the very words she used to hate.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Alice felt much better after talking to her mom on the phone.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】范文:
One evening, Alice found herself missing the very words she used to hate. She picked up her phone to call Coco. As soon as Coco answered, she said softly, “Mom, I miss your nagging. My roommates are difficult to get along with, and I don’t know how to manage my time.” Coco listened patiently and gave gentle advice: “Try talking to your roommates nicely about your sleep schedule, and also, join a club to make friends.” She also reminded Alice to eat healthy and get enough sleep. Alice nodded repeatedly, tears welling up in her eyes. For the first time, she felt the warmth of her mom’s words.
Alice felt much better after talking to her mom on the phone. She followed Coco’s suggestions. She had a calm chat with her roommates, and they agreed to respect each other’s habits to create a more harmonious atmosphere. She also joined a book club, where she met some like-minded classmates. Gradually, she no longer felt like a stranger in the new city. From then on, whenever she faced troubles, she’d call her mom, no longer feeling annoyed by the nagging. Instead, she knew it was the most precious gift her mom could give — a love that followed her, even from far away.
