(为期4周的学习冲刺是一个虚拟学习计划，将于2023年11月进行。这些会议可以现场观看，也可以在IOC频道播出后观看)”可知，在为期四周的学习冲刺中，参与者将参加虚拟学习课程。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据4-Week Learning Sprint部分中“After successfully completing the 4-Week Learning Sprint, you will need to submit a plan for a sport﹣based project, which you will work on if selected as an IOC Young Leader. (在成功完成为期4周的冲刺学习后，您需要提交一份以体育为基础的项目计划，如果您被选为国际奥委会青年领袖，您将参与其中)”可知，如果被选为国际奥委会青年领袖，需要做一个以运动为基础的项目。故选C。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Requirements for the Applicants部分中“You have at least one year of work experience.

I’m lucky enough to be a fossil preparator (化石制备师), which means I work with fossils, like removing rocks from fossils and gluing fossils together to make sure they’re not broken. Sometimes, we have dinosaur bones that need to be arranged and put back into place. I like the job from the bottom of my heart. When we make “jackets” — these are things that store the fossils — we have to accurately and scientifically figure out how to make them for specific bones or fossils, which can be different shapes and artistic expression. Since I was a kid, it’s been my dream to be a paleontologist (古生物学者). When I was 12, I went to this kind of event at the Houston Museum of Natural Science called Dinosaur Day. I got a chance to meet paleontologists. At the end, I asked, “Hey, can I volunteer?” And somehow, they let me, as long as a parent came with me. At 12 years old, I got to go to a fossil excavation (挖掘), and I got to work with dinosaur bones and fossils in the lab for the first time. Fossils are very old. We don’t always get all the pieces. We’re working with something that’s incomplete, sometimes. We do our best to fit the pieces we know back together. And as for the pieces we don’t know, we don’t try to make anything up. But sometimes, we have a gap in a specimen (标本) and it needs support. We’ll put some material in there that’s clearly not fossil, so when people go to study it, they know not to study that part. People would wonder how I find other kids, especially girls, who shared my interests when I was growing up. As a matter of fact, in my friend group, I was the only dinosaur girl. My friends were interested in other things, but they were all super supportive of my love for fossils. 4. Why does the author like her job? A. It is not a demanding job. B. It combines both art and science. C. It is more artistic than scientific. D. It is about collecting dinosaur bones. 5. Why does the author mention her visit to her local museum? A. To show her path to follow her dream. B. To prove her parents supporting her job. C. To present the barrier of achieving her dream. D. To tell her easy access to achieving her dream. 6. How does the author deal with the incomplete fossils? A. By burying them back in the ground. B. By breaking and reconstructing them. C. By making them up with similar materials. D. By filling their gaps with distinct materials. 7. What kind of girl was the author when she was growing up? A. Cautious. B. Understanding. C. Independent. D. Entertaining. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是记叙文。作者以第一人称讲述了自己作为一名化石制备师的成长经历和工作内容，包括从小对古生物学的热爱、参加相关活动的经历、以及在工作中处理化石的过程。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“I like the job from the bottom of my heart. When we make “jackets” — these are things that store the fossils — we have to accurately and scientifically figure out how to make them for specific bones or fossils, which can be different shapes and artistic expression.(我打心底里喜欢这份工作。当我们制作“夹克衫”——这些东西是用来储存化石的——我们必须准确而科学地找出如何为特定的骨头或化石制作它们，它们可以是不同的形状和艺术表达)”可知，制作储存化石的装备时，必须准确而科学地找出如何为特定的骨头或化石制作它们，它们可以是不同的形状和艺术表达，所以是因为它结合了艺术和科学，所以作者喜欢她的工作。故选B项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Since I was a kid, it’s been my dream to be a paleontologist (古生物学者). When I was 12, I went to this kind of event at the Houston Museum of Natural Science called Dinosaur Day. I got a chance to meet paleontologists. At the end, I asked, “Hey, can I volunteer?” And somehow, they let me, as long as a parent came with me. At 12 years old, I got to go to a fossil excavation (挖掘), and I got to work with dinosaur bones and fossils in the lab for the first time.(我从小就梦想成为一名古生物学家。当我12岁的时候，我参加了在休斯顿自然科学博物馆举办的恐龙日活动。我有机会见到古生物学家。最后，我问:“嘿，我可以做志愿者吗?”不管怎么说，他们允许我，只要有家长陪着我。12岁的时候，我去了一次化石挖掘，我第一次在实验室里和恐龙骨头和化石打交道)”可知，作者提到她参观了当地的博物馆，是为了展示她追寻梦想的道路。故选A项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“We’re working with something that’s incomplete, sometimes. We do our best to fit the pieces we know back together. And as for the pieces we don’t know, we don’t try to make anything up. But sometimes, we have a gap in a specimen (标本) and it needs support. We’ll put some material in there that’s clearly not fossil, so when people go to study it, they know not to study that part.(有时候，我们在研究一些不完整的东西。我们尽我们所能把我们知道的碎片拼凑在一起。至于我们不知道的部分，我们不会试图编造任何东西。但有时，我们在标本上有一个缺口，它需要支撑。我们会放一些显然不是化石的材料进去，所以当人们去研究它的时候，他们知道不要研究那部分)”可知，作者通过用不同的材料填补空隙来处理不完整的化石。故选D项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“At the end, I asked, ‘Hey, can I volunteer?’ And somehow, they let me, as long as a parent came with me.(最后，我问：‘嘿，我可以做志愿者吗？’不管怎么说，他们答应了我，只要有家长陪着我)”以及最后一段“As a matter of fact, in my friend group, I was the only dinosaur girl.(事实上，在我的朋友圈里，我是唯一一个喜欢恐龙的女孩)”可知，作者独自去博物馆参加活动，申请成为志愿者，在成长过程中是朋友圈里唯一一个喜欢恐龙的女孩，但是她却坚持自己的梦想成为一名化石制备者，推知她是特立独行的。故选C项。 C Exploring China is not easy even for experienced travelers, but the history instructor Jessica Gerard from Ozarks Technical Community College (OTC) knows from experience the trip is worth it. Since 2008, she’s led five groups of students across China to study its culture and history. Gerard often reminds interested students that the trip is not a vacation—it’s an academic (学术的) course. “Anyone interested in the trip must take an online course about the history of China before they can go,” she said. “And, most importantly, students continue to learn while in China. They’re expected to listen to guides, keep a diary and write about their experiences afterward.” OTC student Ross Weis believed his experiences in China easily transcended (超越) anything he could have learned in the classroom. In fact, it was his long-held interest in China that led him to ask about the trip after seeing a poster in the OTC library. “I’ve always been drawn to China and its rich culture and history,” Weis said. “My dad studied history in college, and I suppose that has some influence on me.” Of all the cities and historical sites Weis visited, he said nothing could top his experience at the Great Wall. “I’d read about the Great Wall and seen it on TV, but it is so different to go there and actually experience it,” he said. “It wasn’t as worn as I had expected it to be. That was pretty cool.” Every OTC group Gerard has taken to China has been led by her trusty tourist agent, Jim Lieu. Gerard plans her trips directly through Lieu, who keeps travel costs down for students. “Lieu and I have an excellent relationship with one another. He always knows what I want for my students, and I know what he can do,” said Gerard. “He sincerely believes that in order to build stronger communities and a better world, people around the world should get to know each other through travel.” 8. Why did Gerard organize travel to China for her students? A. To help students relax after exams. B. To get students interested in travel. C. To teach history in a productive way. D. To give an interesting life experience. 9. What should the students do before their trip to China? A. Take a course online. B. Consult a native guide. C. Show their anxiety. D. Share their preparation. 10. What made Ross Weis take the trip to China? A. His passion for travel. B. His interest in China. C. His teacher’s invitation. D. His father’s inspiration. 11. Which of the following best describes Jim Lieu? A. Brave. B. Patient. C. Helpful. D. Humorous. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。详细描述了Ozarks Technical Community College（OTC）的历史讲师Jessica Gerard带领学生到中国进行文化和历史学习的经历，以及学生和导游的感受和看法。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Gerard often reminds interested students that the trip is not a vacation—it’s an academic (学术的) course. “Anyone interested in the trip must take an online course about the history of China before they can go,” she said. “And, most importantly, students continue to learn while in China. They’re expected to listen to guides, keep a diary and write about their experiences afterward.”(Gerard经常提醒感兴趣的学生，这次旅行不是度假，而是一门学术课程。“任何对这次旅行感兴趣的人都必须在去之前上一门关于中国历史的在线课程，”她说。“最重要的是，学生在中国可以继续学习。他们要听导游讲解，记日记，然后写下自己的经历。”)”可知，Gerard为了以富有成效的方式教授历史，所以为她的学生组织中国之旅。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Gerard often reminds interested students that the trip is not a vacation—it’s an academic (学术的) course. “Anyone interested in the trip must take an online course about the history of China before they can go,” she said.(Gerard经常提醒感兴趣的学生，这次旅行不是度假，而是一门学术课程。“任何对这次旅行感兴趣的人都必须在去之前上一门关于中国历史的在线课程，”她说)”可知，在去中国旅行之前，学生们应该参加在线课程。故选A项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“OTC student Ross Weis believed his experiences in China easily transcended (超越) anything he could have learned in the classroom. In fact, it was his long-held interest in China that led him to ask about the trip after seeing a poster in the OTC library. “I’ve always been drawn to China and its rich culture and history,” Weis said. “My dad studied history in college, and I suppose that has some influence on me.”(OTC的学生Ross Weis认为他在中国的经历远远超过了他在课堂上学到的东西。事实上，正是他长期以来对中国的兴趣，促使他在OTC图书馆看到一张海报后询问了这次旅行。“我一直被中国及其丰富的文化和历史所吸引，”韦斯说。“我爸爸在大学里学的是历史，我想这对我有一些影响。”)”可知，对中国的兴趣让罗斯·韦斯来中国。故选B项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Every OTC group Gerard has taken to China has been led by her trusty tourist agent, Jim Lieu. Gerard plans her trips directly through Lieu, who keeps travel costs down for students. “Lieu and I have an excellent relationship with one another. He always knows what I want for my students, and I know what he can do,” said Gerard. “He sincerely believes that in order to build stronger communities and a better world, people around the world should get to know each other through travel.”(Gerard每次带OTC团队到中国都是由她信赖的旅行社代理人吉姆·刘带队的。Gerard通过刘直接计划行程，为学生降低了旅行成本。“我和刘之间关系很好。他总是知道我的学生想要什么，我也知道他能做什么，”杰拉德说。“他真诚地相信，为了建立更强大的社区和更美好的世界，世界各地的人们应该通过旅行来相互了解。”)”可知，Jim Lieu帮助了Gerard很多，所以是有帮助的。故选C项。 D 13-year-old Ava Dorsey is the founder of Ava’s Pet Palace, a business that sells organic dog and cat treats.“I actually had the idea when I was six with a picture I drew of a palace,”she says.It was a detailed design for dogs and cats and she had serious plans to build it one day.

Ava has set a goal for herself with these dog treats, and she wants every treat to be healthy, tasty, and top-quality.

When asked how she defines(定义) success, Ava says,“When you hit a bump in the road, you shouldn't give up and you keep trying.”She learned that from her mom, who sounds like a smart lady! Some more things Ava has learned from her years in business: Hard work eventually pays off and there is nothing wrong with asking for help. As far as the future of the pet treats industry goes, Ava is optimistic——but she’d also like to be an inspiration for change.“There’s not much diversity(多样性) right now, so that’s something I would love to see in the future,”says Ava.“I would also love to see more kids in this industry.There aren't many other teenagers around, and I hope that I can be an inspiration to others who hope to lead the pet industry.” 12.

They all stopped, books in hands, to stare at the pictures of kids flying above canyons suspended from zip lines. They instantly believed the brochure’s headline: Summer won’t be complete until you Take it to the Limit at Adventure Rocks Kids Camp. Ben broke the silence, “We have less than two weeks until registration opens, and it says the camp fills up fast.” Then an idea popped into Morty’s head. “Why don’t we sell lemonade and snacks by the side of the road? We can pool our allowance savings for the camp.” “That’s a great Idea,” Ben said. The sun had barely come up on Saturday morning when the kids set up their business. They chose a spot, asked permission from the homeowner, and then asked to use her garden hose for water to make lemonade. Their business went smoothly until Ben announced that they had a comparatively small stock of lemons shortly after noon. Morty decided to make their stock go further. “Fred, when the jug gets down to one-fourth full, just fill it to the top with the water hose.” Morty was thinking out loud, “I’ll change the sign and charge 30 more cents for each cup of lemonade.” Their business went on and the three were secretly proud of the little tricks they had done. Just as Morty finished refilling the jug with water for the third time, a vehicle rounded the comer. Morty saw the minivan with his father at the wheel and his family inside. They pulled up to the sidewalk, and his brothers and sisters jumped out, each clutching a coin or two. They were eager to support their brother’s bustling business. Morty’s family bought the last of the brownies and drank the last drop of watered-down lemonade. 注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡得相应位置做答。 Morty’s father frowned at the sip of the lemonade. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ They decided to fix their wrongdoings the next week. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Morty’s father frowned at the sip of the lemonade. As to him, it tasted more like water. Overwhelmed with confusion, he asked directly, “What’s wrong? It tastes just like cold water.” The moment Morty heard his father’s doubt, he stood awkwardly, not sure what to say. Fred and Ben were also speechless. A moment later, they admitted what they had done. Although Morty’s father was disappointed, he said, “You still have time to correct your wrongdoings.” Hearing this, they nodded immediately. They decided to fix their wrongdoings the next week. Ben suggested to use the money earned to prepare enough lemons first and then reduce the price. They all agreed. When they restarted their business, they even stood a sign, saying, “We send a cup of lemonade to customers who bought it last Saturday afternoon for free.” They made over 50 cups of lemonade for a constant stream of customers with a low price and over 20 cups were for free. As you can imagine, they didn’t get enough money for the camp. But they learned a valuable lesson that one should always be honest. 【解析】 【导语】本文以故事情节发展为线索，讲述了Morty，Ben和Fred三个孩子因为想去参加夏令营，在路边摆摊卖柠檬水赚报名费。随着柠檬越来越少，他们打起了歪主意：往柠檬汁里兑水并提价。后来，Morty的家人开心地来照顾生意。他的爸爸喝出了柠檬水的问题，不禁发出疑问。几个孩子沉默片刻，还是承认了错误。在Morty爸爸的鼓励下，他们决定第二周弥补错误。随后，他们用赚到的钱购买了足量的柠檬，降价，并主动声明给上周周六下午购买柠檬水的顾客免费送一杯柠檬水。可想而知，他们最终没有钱参加夏令营，但是他们懂得了珍贵的一课：做人要保持诚信。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Morty的父亲喝了一口柠檬水，皱起了眉头”可知，第一段可描写Morty的爸爸发现了柠檬水的问题后，几个孩子很尴尬地承认错误的场景，以及Morty爸爸建议他们怎么做。 ②由第二段首句内容“他们决定下周改正他们的错误”可知，第二段可描写他们如何改正自己的错误。 2.续写线索：发现夏令营传单——想参加——摆柠檬水摊赚报名费——柠檬水兑水被发现——承认错误——纠正错误——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①纠正：correct/rectify ②建议：suggest/recommend 情绪类 ①疑惑：Overwhelmed with confusion/filled with confusion ②尴尬地：awkwardly/embarrassedly 【点睛】[高分句型1]The moment Morty heard his father’s doubt, he stood awkwardly, not sure what to say.（由连词the moment引导的时间状语从句） [高分句型2]We send a cup of lemonade to customers who bought it last Saturday afternoon for free.（由关系代词who引导限制性定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高三英语试卷 第I卷（选择题） 一、听力,本题共20小题，共30分。 1.How did the woman feel during the first two days in Thailand?

Twenty-five Young Leaders are being selected every two years for a four-year period. They promote the Olympic values, spreading the message of sport for good. To be an IOC Young Leader, you need to first complete the 4-Week Learning Sprint (冲刺). 4-Week Learning Sprint The 4-Week Learning Sprint, which will take place during November 2023, is a virtual learning programme. The sessions can be attended live or watched back after they are made available on the IOC channel. Each week, participants will be asked to complete a topic﹣specific reflection task. The 4-Week Learning Sprint is open to anyone, with the target audience aged between 20 and 28. After successfully completing the 4-Week Learning Sprint, you will need to submit a plan for a sport﹣based project, which you will work on if selected as an IOC Young Leader.

B Do you love fossils and dinosaurs? I’m lucky enough to be a fossil preparator (化石制备师), which means I work with fossils, like removing rocks from fossils and gluing fossils together to make sure they’re not broken. Sometimes, we have dinosaur bones that need to be arranged and put back into place. I like the job from the bottom of my heart. When we make “jackets” — these are things that store the fossils — we have to accurately and scientifically figure out how to make them for specific bones or fossils, which can be different shapes and artistic expression. Since I was a kid, it’s been my dream to be a paleontologist (古生物学者). When I was 12, I went to this kind of event at the Houston Museum of Natural Science called Dinosaur Day. I got a chance to meet paleontologists. At the end, I asked, “Hey, can I volunteer?” And somehow, they let me, as long as a parent came with me. At 12 years old, I got to go to a fossil excavation (挖掘), and I got to work with dinosaur bones and fossils in the lab for the first time. Fossils are very old. We don’t always get all the pieces. We’re working with something that’s incomplete, sometimes. We do our best to fit the pieces we know back together. And as for the pieces we don’t know, we don’t try to make anything up. But sometimes, we have a gap in a specimen (标本) and it needs support. We’ll put some material in there that’s clearly not fossil, so when people go to study it, they know not to study that part. People would wonder how I find other kids, especially girls, who shared my interests when I was growing up. As a matter of fact, in my friend group, I was the only dinosaur girl. My friends were interested in other things, but they were all super supportive of my love for fossils. 4. Why does the author like her job? A. It is not a demanding job. B. It combines both art and science. C. It is more artistic than scientific. D. It is about collecting dinosaur bones. 5. Why does the author mention her visit to her local museum? A. To show her path to follow her dream. B. To prove her parents supporting her job. C. To present the barrier of achieving her dream. D. To tell her easy access to achieving her dream. 6. How does the author deal with the incomplete fossils? A. By burying them back in the ground. B. By breaking and reconstructing them. C. By making them up with similar materials. D. By filling their gaps with distinct materials. 7. What kind of girl was the author when she was growing up? A. Cautious. B. Understanding. C. Independent. D. Entertaining. C Exploring China is not easy even for experienced travelers, but the history instructor Jessica Gerard from Ozarks Technical Community College (OTC) knows from experience the trip is worth it. Since 2008, she’s led five groups of students across China to study its culture and history. Gerard often reminds interested students that the trip is not a vacation—it’s an academic (学术的) course. “Anyone interested in the trip must take an online course about the history of China before they can go,” she said. “And, most importantly, students continue to learn while in China. They’re expected to listen to guides, keep a diary and write about their experiences afterward.” OTC student Ross Weis believed his experiences in China easily transcended (超越) anything he could have learned in the classroom. In fact, it was his long-held interest in China that led him to ask about the trip after seeing a poster in the OTC library. “I’ve always been drawn to China and its rich culture and history,” Weis said. “My dad studied history in college, and I suppose that has some influence on me.” Of all the cities and historical sites Weis visited, he said nothing could top his experience at the Great Wall. “I’d read about the Great Wall and seen it on TV, but it is so different to go there and actually experience it,” he said. “It wasn’t as worn as I had expected it to be. That was pretty cool.” Every OTC group Gerard has taken to China has been led by her trusty tourist agent, Jim Lieu. Gerard plans her trips directly through Lieu, who keeps travel costs down for students. “Lieu and I have an excellent relationship with one another. He always knows what I want for my students, and I know what he can do,” said Gerard. “He sincerely believes that in order to build stronger communities and a better world, people around the world should get to know each other through travel.” 8. Why did Gerard organize travel to China for her students? A. To help students relax after exams. B. To get students interested in travel. C. To teach history in a productive way. D. To give an interesting life experience. 9. What should the students do before their trip to China? A. Take a course online. B. Consult a native guide. C. Show their anxiety. D. Share their preparation. 10. What made Ross Weis take the trip to China? A. His passion for travel. B. His interest in China. C. His teacher’s invitation. D. His father’s inspiration. 11. Which of the following best describes Jim Lieu? A. Brave. B. Patient. C. Helpful. D. Humorous. D 13-year-old Ava Dorsey is the founder of Ava’s Pet Palace, a business that sells organic dog and cat treats.“I actually had the idea when I was six with a picture I drew of a palace,”she says.It was a detailed design for dogs and cats and she had serious plans to build it one day. Unlike most dog treats that you find in stores, dog treats sold by Ava’s Pet Palace are 100% organic, and are non-GMO(非转基因). Ava has set a goal for herself with these dog treats, and she wants every treat to be healthy, tasty, and top-quality. Seriously, some of her treats sound delicious enough for people to eat! “All of my bags now have the USDA organic stamp, and we're very excited to have gotten it because it's something I've wanted for a long time,”she says.“A lot of stores like to see organic products because customers like it, so that was really exciting.” Ava says the biggest challenge of being a kid in business is when people don't take her seriously, but undoubtedly Ava has proved that her doubters are wrong! When asked how she defines(定义) success, Ava says,“When you hit a bump in the road, you shouldn't give up and you keep trying.”She learned that from her mom, who sounds like a smart lady! Some more things Ava has learned from her years in business: Hard work eventually pays off and there is nothing wrong with asking for help. As far as the future of the pet treats industry goes, Ava is optimistic——but she’d also like to be an inspiration for change.“There’s not much diversity(多样性) right now, so that’s something I would love to see in the future,”says Ava.“I would also love to see more kids in this industry.There aren't many other teenagers around, and I hope that I can be an inspiration to others who hope to lead the pet industry.” 12. What can we learn about Ava’s Pet Palace from the first two paragraphs? A. It is a palace for pets. B. It is very popular among kids. C. It sells organic pet food. D. It designs stamps for customers. 13. What does“hit a bump in the road”in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Drive on a stone road. B. Escape a setback in business. C. Face a challenging situation. D. Encounter an unexpected opportunity. 14. What can be inferred about Ava’s future goals? A. She plans to enlarge her business in other industries. B. She wants to employ more teenagers in her company. C. She intends to be a leading figure in the pet industry. D. She hopes to break new ground in the pet treats industry. 15. Which of the following best describes Ava? A. Patient and hard-working. B. Determined and creative. C. Confident and humorous. D. Friendly and outgoing. 三、阅读七选五：本题共5小题，共12.5分。 Choosing a career goal is a personal exercise in figuring out what’s most important to you and your life. ___16___.

They all stopped, books in hands, to stare at the pictures of kids flying above canyons suspended from zip lines. They instantly believed the brochure’s headline: Summer won’t be complete until you Take it to the Limit at Adventure Rocks Kids Camp. Ben broke the silence, “We have less than two weeks until registration opens, and it says the camp fills up fast.” Then an idea popped into Morty’s head. “Why don’t we sell lemonade and snacks by the side of the road? We can pool our allowance savings for the camp.” “That’s a great Idea,” Ben said. The sun had barely come up on Saturday morning when the kids set up their business. They chose a spot, asked permission from the homeowner, and then asked to use her garden hose for water to make lemonade. Their business went smoothly until Ben announced that they had a comparatively small stock of lemons shortly after noon. Morty decided to make their stock go further. “Fred, when the jug gets down to one-fourth full, just fill it to the top with the water hose.” Morty was thinking out loud, “I’ll change the sign and charge 30 more cents for each cup of lemonade.” Their business went on and the three were secretly proud of the little tricks they had done. Just as Morty finished refilling the jug with water for the third time, a vehicle rounded the comer. Morty saw the minivan with his father at the wheel and his family inside. They pulled up to the sidewalk, and his brothers and sisters jumped out, each clutching a coin or two. They were eager to support their brother’s bustling business. Morty’s family bought the last of the brownies and drank the last drop of watered-down lemonade. 注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡得相应位置做答。 Morty’s father frowned at the sip of the lemonade. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ They decided to fix their wrongdoings the next week. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
