Here are four of the most iconic places worldwide. Besides many incredible attractions, these landmarks also have great work exchange opportunities, for those looking to save money or have a unique cultural experience.
Golden Gate Bridge, USA
Known for its rustic red color, the Golden Gate Bridge was built in the 1930s and was the tallest and longest suspension bridge in the world. The bridge is one of the best iconic places in San Francisco, and you can stay in the city on a budget by volunteering at a yoga studio.
Banff National Park, Canada
Home to alpine peaks, glacial lakes, and the famous Icefields Parkway scenic drive, Banff is a heaven for lovers of natural beauty and adventure. A cool work exchange to try is this family-run ice cream shop in Twin Butte, just 3.5 hours away from Banff National Park. Stay in a local family home and help with running the shop as well as animal care.

For the creatively minded, snow represents a large blank canvas (空白画布) for art. But often, it’s limited to snowmen or other snow statues. Simon Beck had a different idea, and over the course of a decade he has carved a path for himself in the snow art world. He creates large land art by walking across soccer-field-sized areas covered in untouched snow. Combined with light and shadow, his artistic designs can only be fully appreciated when viewed from above.
Beck, 59, a former map maker turned into a snow artist, thanks to his decision late in life to pursue his hobby.
“It started just as a joke one day really,” Beck explained. “After skiing one day, I decided to make a drawing on snow to have pleasure…”
“I really had no idea how good it would look when I made that first drawing, but it really went beyond my expectation.” he said of his first ever creation that he looked down on from a ski lift.
To create this work, Beck stepped his way through the snow using only snowshoes and a ski pole for measurement with nothing else but the image of a design idea in his head. It was not challenging at all due to his previous work experience. But as his designs developed and became more complex, Beck said he began to start drawing them on paper first.
Beck’s paintings have become a huge hit since his work was first shared.
“Most of the time I had been doing failed careers, and people around me are asking what’s the quickest way of getting rid of this person,” Beck said. “And for the first time, I felt people actually wanted me. I felt like a more valued member of society.”
24. Where does Simon Beck create art?
A. On canvas. B. In the sky. C. On snow fields. D. At soccer courts.
25. Why did Beck create his first drawing?
A. To seek fun. B. To prove his talent.
C. To develop a new hobby. D. To enhance his former career.
26. What contributes to Beck’s art creation?
A. His passion for skiing. B. His competitive nature.
C. His dream to be an artist. D. His experience of making maps.
27. What did Beck think of his painting work?
A. Boring. B. Rewarding. C. Demanding. D. Discouraging.
C
I’ve always loved books. When I was a child, I would bring them everywhere. I became a reader in the absence of digital audiobooks, and they never really entered my world of reading. Nevertheless, with the rise of smartphones, audiobooks have exploded in popularity, and as with any new interest, new criticisms have risen in response — audiobooks aren’t really books, and that listening to them isn’t really reading.
I’ll admit, I used to think that audiobooks “didn’t count” because you could listen to them passively. One of my biggest annoyances is wandering during an audiobook and realizing I have no idea where I stopped paying attention. And I’m also still a print book lover — I hate ebooks, and I only use them when it’s tough to get a book any other way.
But I have grown to love audiobooks for the distinct advantages they offer — for example, some have voice actors do distinctive voices for different characters, or actually put melody to songs that only have lyrics in the written text. A great example is Cary Elwes’ As You Wish: Inconceivable Tales from the Making of The Princess Bride. Elwes narrates the book himself, and brings other actors from the film like Mandy Patinkin and Robin Wright from the film to narrate their own sections. That’s just an experience you’re never going to get with a paperback (平装书).
Sometimes I prefer an audiobook. It’s the only way to read if I’m on a long drive or if I want to do multitasks. Sometimes I prefer a book. I love the way books feel in my hands, I love flipping pages, and I love collecting bookmarks.
Engage with books however you want. Buy them, get them from the library, borrow them from friends, download them online, it doesn’t matter. Don’t we have better uses for our time than to pick apart how other people take in information?
28. What is paragraph 1 mainly about?
A. An issue about audiobooks. B. An opinion about print books.
C. A reading story in childhood. D. A popular belief of digital reading.
29. What did the author think of audiobooks before?
A. Listening to them was really reading.
B. Listening to them was a passive involvement.
C. He knew where he was when listening to them.
D. He thought it easier to find them than print books.
30. Why does the author mention Cary Elwes’ audiobook?
A. To introduce its actors. B. To show his reading preference.
C. To highlight its unique features. D. To share his reading experience.
31. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?
A. It’s beneficial to choose one reading way.
B. It’s useful to know about others’ reading time.
C. It’s necessary to obtain various reading resources.
D. It’s practical to use different ways of reading books.
D
Bacteria are an annoying problem for astronauts. The microorganisms(微生物) from our bodies grow uncontrollably on surfaces of the International Space Station, so astronauts spend hours cleaning them up each week. How is NASA overcoming this very tiny big problem? It’s turning to a bunch of high school kids. But not just any kids. It is depending on NASA HUNCH high school classrooms, like the one science teachers Gene Gordon and Donna Himmelberg lead at Fairport High School in Fairport, New York.
HUNCH is designed to connect high school classrooms with NASA engineers. For the past two years, Gordon’s students have been studying ways to kill bacteria in zero gravity, and they think they’re close to a solution(解决方案). “We don’t give the students any breaks. They have to do it just like NASA engineers,” says Florence Gold, a project manager.
“There are no tests,” Gordon says. “There is no graded homework. There almost are no grades, other than ‘Are you working towards your goal?’ Basically, it’s ‘I’ve got to produce this product and then, at the end of year, present it to NASA.’ Engineers come and really do an in-person review, and...it’s not a very nice thing at times. It’s a hard business review of your product.”
Gordon says the HUNCH program has an impact(影响) on college admissions and practical life skills. “These kids are so absorbed in their studies that I just sit back. I don’t teach.” And that annoying bacteria? Gordon says his students are emailing daily with NASA engineers about the problem, readying a workable solution to test in space.
32. What do we know about the bacteria in the International Space Station?
A. They are hard to get rid of. B. They lead to air pollution.
C. They appear in different forms. D. They damage the instruments.
33. What is the purpose of the HUNCH program?
A. To strengthen teacher-student relationships.
B. To sharpen students’ communication skills.
C. To allow students to experience zero gravity.
D. To link space technology with school education.
34. What do the NASA engineers do for the students in the program?
A. Check their product. B. Guide project designs.
C. Adjust work schedules. D. Grade their homework.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. NASA: The Home of Astronauts
B. Space: The Final Homework Frontier
C. Nature: An Outdoor Classroom
D. HUNCH: A College Admission Reform

Ruby was so proud of her new skates! She put them on right away and was soon rushing along the sidewalk. Her little brother Max could only watch in envy.
“I wish I had a pair!” he told his mum.
“Well, you’re nearly big enough to wear Ruby’s old skates,” she replied.
But when Max tried on Ruby’s old skates, they were too big. He stuffed newspaper into the boots. Much to his disappointment, he fell over each time he tried to stand up in them.
Finally, he gave up, only watching Ruby skating around him.
“I should put on a skating display!” Ruby decided. “All our aunts, uncles and cousins will come. You’ll watch me, Max?”
Max sighed. He didn’t want to watch the show. He wanted to be in it! “Poor Max!” said his mum. Then, she took out a pair of thick red socks to let Max pull them on with the hope of fitting better.
Max eye d the red socks skeptically, saying, “Mum, these look just like my red soccer socks, but smaller.” His mum smiled, “Ah, your red soccer socks are too thin and meant for running, but these are magic socks that have the power to expand and stretch to fit most feet...”
Magic? When Mum left the room, Max took the wand (魔杖) from his magic set and waved it around a few times, “Magic socks, you are so great! Use your magic to help me skate” Max slipped the socks on and tried skating in his bedroom. He didn’t full over! He tried again. He still didn’t fall. He could now skate— thanks to his magic socks! Hooray!
The next morning, when he skated up to Ruby on one foot, she stared in amazement.“ Max, you are magic!” Thrilled, Ruby invited him to join in the show. To prepare well for the show, Max practiced happily with the magic socks on every day. Max even tried tricks like jumps, believing the socks would help him.
注意:
(1) 续写词数应为150个左右;

The show time came and their family gathered in the garden.

M: Well, Ms. Green, I feel like I’m dying! I don’t know if I’m just tired or what, but I’m not myself! I’ve had random chest pain.
W: How long have you felt like this? Do you have a running nose?
M: No, I can breathe through my nose fine. I think it’s something else. I’ve felt sick for the past three days.
W: Well, it could be heartburn. Do fatty foods or drinks like coffee set it off?
M: No, I don’t know. But the chest pain has me worried! Do you think it could be cancer?
W: We need to do some scans and blood work to narrow this down. I’ll book you an appointment for tomorrow. And don’t eat anything before the test.
M: But I’m going out for a buffet tonight! I already bought the tickets last week. I’ve been looking forward to it.
W: Not anymore. Doctor’s orders!

For the creatively minded, snow represents a large blank canvas (空白画布) for art. But often, it’s limited to snowmen or other snow statues. Simon Beck had a different idea, and over the course of a decade he has carved a path for himself in the snow art world. He creates large land art by walking across soccer-field-sized areas covered in untouched snow. Combined with light and shadow, his artistic designs can only be fully appreciated when viewed from above.
Beck, 59, a former map maker turned into a snow artist, thanks to his decision late in life to pursue his hobby.
“It started just as a joke one day really,” Beck explained. “After skiing one day, I decided to make a drawing on snow to have pleasure…”
“I really had no idea how good it would look when I made that first drawing, but it really went beyond my expectation.” he said of his first ever creation that he looked down on from a ski lift.
To create this work, Beck stepped his way through the snow using only snowshoes and a ski pole for measurement with nothing else but the image of a design idea in his head. It was not challenging at all due to his previous work experience. But as his designs developed and became more complex, Beck said he began to start drawing them on paper first.
Beck’s paintings have become a huge hit since his work was first shared.
“Most of the time I had been doing failed careers, and people around me are asking what’s the quickest way of getting rid of this person,” Beck said. “And for the first time, I felt people actually wanted me. I felt like a more valued member of society.”
24. Where does Simon Beck create art?
A. On canvas. B. In the sky. C. On snow fields. D. At soccer courts.
25. Why did Beck create his first drawing?
A. To seek fun. B. To prove his talent.
C. To develop a new hobby. D. To enhance his former career.
26. What contributes to Beck’s art creation?
A. His passion for skiing. B. His competitive nature.
C. His dream to be an artist. D. His experience of making maps.
27. What did Beck think of his painting work?
A. Boring. B. Rewarding. C. Demanding. D. Discouraging.
【答案】24. C 25. A 26. D 27. B
【解析】

【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“It started just as a joke one day really,” Beck explained. “After skiing one day, I decided to make a drawing on snow to have pleasure…” (“这真的只是有一天作为一个玩笑开始的,”Beck解释说。“有一天滑雪后,我决定在雪地上画一幅画来取乐……”)”可知,Beck创作第一幅画是为了寻求乐趣。故选A。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中“It was not challenging at all due to his previous work experience. But as his designs developed and became more complex, Beck said he began to start drawing them on paper first. (由于他以前的工作经验,这一点也不具有挑战性。但随着他的设计不断发展,变得越来越复杂,Beck说,他开始先在纸上画出设计图)”以及第二段“Beck, 59, a former map maker turned into a snow artist, thanks to his decision late in life to pursue his hobby. (59岁的Beck曾经是一名地图制作师,后来因为晚年决定追求自己的爱好而成为了一名雪地艺术家)”可知,Beck以前是制作地图的,这对他后来在雪地上创作艺术作品很有帮助。故选D。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Beck’s paintings have become a huge hit since his work was first shared.(自从Beck的作品首次被分享以来,他的画作就受到了极大的欢迎)”以及最后一段“And for the first time, I felt people actually wanted me. I felt like a more valued member of society. (第一次,我觉得人们真的需要我。我觉得自己像是社会上更有价值的一员)”可知,Beck认为自己的绘画工作是有意义的,是值得的。故选B。

I’ve always loved books. When I was a child, I would bring them everywhere. I became a reader in the absence of digital audiobooks, and they never really entered my world of reading. Nevertheless, with the rise of smartphones, audiobooks have exploded in popularity, and as with any new interest, new criticisms have risen in response — audiobooks aren’t really books, and that listening to them isn’t really reading.
I’ll admit, I used to think that audiobooks “didn’t count” because you could listen to them passively. One of my biggest annoyances is wandering during an audiobook and realizing I have no idea where I stopped paying attention. And I’m also still a print book lover — I hate ebooks, and I only use them when it’s tough to get a book any other way.
But I have grown to love audiobooks for the distinct advantages they offer — for example, some have voice actors do distinctive voices for different characters, or actually put melody to songs that only have lyrics in the written text. A great example is Cary Elwes’ As You Wish: Inconceivable Tales from the Making of The Princess Bride. Elwes narrates the book himself, and brings other actors from the film like Mandy Patinkin and Robin Wright from the film to narrate their own sections. That’s just an experience you’re never going to get with a paperback (平装书).
Sometimes I prefer an audiobook. It’s the only way to read if I’m on a long drive or if I want to do multitasks. Sometimes I prefer a book. I love the way books feel in my hands, I love flipping pages, and I love collecting bookmarks.
Engage with books however you want. Buy them, get them from the library, borrow them from friends, download them online, it doesn’t matter. Don’t we have better uses for our time than to pick apart how other people take in information?
28. What is paragraph 1 mainly about?
A. An issue about audiobooks. B. An opinion about print books.
C. A reading story in childhood. D. A popular belief of digital reading.
29. What did the author think of audiobooks before?
A. Listening to them was really reading.
B. Listening to them was a passive involvement.
C. He knew where he was when listening to them.
D. He thought it easier to find them than print books.
30. Why does the author mention Cary Elwes’ audiobook?
A. To introduce its actors. B. To show his reading preference.
C. To highlight its unique features. D. To share his reading experience.
31. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?
A. It’s beneficial to choose one reading way.
B. It’s useful to know about others’ reading time.
C. It’s necessary to obtain various reading resources.
D. It’s practical to use different ways of reading books.
【答案】28. A 29. B 30. C 31. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了有声书的争议及作者对其态度的转变,主张以多种方式读书。
【28题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“I’ve always loved books. When I was a child, I would bring them everywhere. I became a reader in the absence of digital audiobooks, and they never really entered my world of reading. Nevertheless, with the rise of smartphones, audiobooks have exploded in popularity, and as with any new interest, new criticisms have risen in response — audiobooks aren’t really books, and that listening to them isn’t really reading.(我一直很爱书。小时候,我走到哪儿都会带着书。在没有数字有声书的年代,我就成了一名读者,而有声书也从未真正走进我的阅读世界。然而,随着智能手机的兴起,有声书迅速走红,就像任何新事物都会引发关注一样,针对有声书的批评也随之而来——有人说有声书算不上真正的书,听有声书也算不上真正的阅读)”可知,第一段主要讲的是有声书的一个问题,即“有声书算不上真正的书,听有声书也算不上真正的阅读”。故选A。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“I’ll admit, I used to think that audiobooks “didn’t count” because you could listen to them passively.(我得承认,我以前也觉得有声书“不算数”,因为你可以被动地听)”可知,作者以前认为听有声书是一种被动的参与。故选B。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“But I have grown to love audiobooks for the distinct advantages they offer — for example, some have voice actors do distinctive voices for different characters, or actually put melody to songs that only have lyrics in the written text. A great example is Cary Elwes’ As You Wish: Inconceivable Tales from the Making of The Princess Bride. Elwes narrates the book himself, and brings other actors from the film like Mandy Patinkin and Robin Wright from the film to narrate their own sections. That’s just an experience you’re never going to get with a paperback.(但我逐渐爱上了有声书,因为它们有独特的优势——例如,有些有声书会让配音演员为不同的角色做不同的声音,或者为只有书面歌词的歌曲配上旋律。一个很好的例子是Cary Elwes的《如你所愿:公主新娘制作中不可思议的故事》。Elwes自己讲述了这本书,并邀请了电影中的其他演员,如Mandy Patinkin和Robin Wright,来讲述他们自己的部分。这是你在平装书中永远无法获得的体验)”可知,作者提到Cary Elwes的有声书是为了突出有声书有独特的优势。故选C。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Sometimes I prefer an audiobook. It’s the only way to read if I’m on a long drive or if I want to do multitasks. Sometimes I prefer a book. I love the way books feel in my hands, I love flipping pages, and I love collecting bookmarks.(有时我更喜欢有声书。如果我在长途驾驶或想同时做多项任务,这是唯一的阅读方式。有时我更喜欢纸质书。我喜欢书在我手里的感觉,我喜欢翻页,我喜欢收集书签)”和最后一段“Engage with books however you want. Buy them, get them from the library, borrow them from friends, download them online, it doesn’t matter.(以任何你喜欢的方式与书互动。买它们,从图书馆借,从朋友那里借,在网上下载,都没关系)”可知,作者认为使用不同的阅读方式是实用的,无论选择哪种阅读方式都有其独特的优势。故选D。
D
Bacteria are an annoying problem for astronauts. The microorganisms(微生物) from our bodies grow uncontrollably on surfaces of the International Space Station, so astronauts spend hours cleaning them up each week. How is NASA overcoming this very tiny big problem? It’s turning to a bunch of high school kids. But not just any kids. It is depending on NASA HUNCH high school classrooms, like the one science teachers Gene Gordon and Donna Himmelberg lead at Fairport High School in Fairport, New York.
HUNCH is designed to connect high school classrooms with NASA engineers. For the past two years, Gordon’s students have been studying ways to kill bacteria in zero gravity, and they think they’re close to a solution(解决方案). “We don’t give the students any breaks. They have to do it just like NASA engineers,” says Florence Gold, a project manager.
“There are no tests,” Gordon says. “There is no graded homework. There almost are no grades, other than ‘Are you working towards your goal?’ Basically, it’s ‘I’ve got to produce this product and then, at the end of year, present it to NASA.’ Engineers come and really do an in-person review, and...it’s not a very nice thing at times. It’s a hard business review of your product.”
Gordon says the HUNCH program has an impact(影响) on college admissions and practical life skills. “These kids are so absorbed in their studies that I just sit back. I don’t teach.” And that annoying bacteria? Gordon says his students are emailing daily with NASA engineers about the problem, readying a workable solution to test in space.
32. What do we know about the bacteria in the International Space Station?
A. They are hard to get rid of. B. They lead to air pollution.
C. They appear in different forms. D. They damage the instruments.
33. What is the purpose of the HUNCH program?
A. To strengthen teacher-student relationships.
B. To sharpen students’ communication skills.
C. To allow students to experience zero gravity.
D. To link space technology with school education.
34. What do the NASA engineers do for the students in the program?
A. Check their product. B. Guide project designs.
C. Adjust work schedules. D. Grade their homework.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. NASA: The Home of Astronauts
B. Space: The Final Homework Frontier
C. Nature: An Outdoor Classroom
D. HUNCH: A College Admission Reform
【答案】32. A 33. D 34. A 35. B
【解析】
【分析】本文为说明文。本文介绍了美国国家航空航天局的HUNCH计划。参与这个计划的高中生制作供美国国家航空航天局使用的产品,此计划的目的是把航天技术与学校教育结合起来,把空间技术与带进课堂,与学校教育相结合,这项计划实施结果显示会影响到学生的生活和大学录取。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的Bacteria are annoying problem for astronauts. The microorganisms form our bodies grow uncontrollably on surfaces of the International Space Station, so astronauts spend hours cleaning them up each week.可知,细菌对宇航员来说是个令人讨厌的问题。这种来自我们身体的微生物在国际空间站的表面不受控制地生长,宇航员每周要花几个小时来清理它们。也就是说它们很难去掉。其中的“the microorganisms”包括“bacteria”。由此可知, A项正确。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的HUNCH is designed to connect high school classrooms with NASA engineers. For the past two years, Gordon’s students have been studying ways to kill bacteria in zero gravity, and they think they’re close to a solution(解决方案).可知,HUNCH旨在把高中教室和NASA的工程师联系起来。Gordon的学生一直在研究如何在零重力下杀死细菌;结合最后一段中的Gordon says his students are emailing daily with NASA engineers about the problem, readying a workable solution to test in space.可知,学生每天都给NASA的工程师发邮件一起探讨(如何杀死空间站的细菌这一空间技术)这个问题。由此可推断出HUNCH program的目的把空间技术与学校教育相结合。故D项正确。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的Engineers come and really do an in-person review, and...it’s not a very nice thing at times. It’s a hard business review of your product.”可知,NASA的工程师会亲自审核学生们所做的产品。故A项正确。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。文章以国际空间站里的微生物很难清除开头,引出宇航员们解决此问题的途径——借助美国国家航空航天局的HUNCH高中班,此计划的目的是把航天技术与学校教育结合起来。在这项计划里,学生们通过homework(制作供美国国家航空航天局使用的产品)探索无疆的太空,因此“太空:最后的功课疆域”最适合做文章的标题。故选B。

【答案】56. aiming
57. on 58. used
59. which 60. positively
61. to defend
62. alarming
63. was banned
64. a 65. awareness
【解析】
【导语】主要介绍蕾切尔·卡森所著《寂静的春天》的创作目的、内容、引发的争议以及该书对环保运动产生的深远影响。
【56题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:卡森撰写这本书,旨在提醒人们人类活动对自然生态系统造成的破坏。此处非谓语作伴随状语,Carson与aim之间为主动关系,所以用现在分词aiming。
【57题详解】
考查介词。句意:卡森撰写这本书,旨在提醒人们人类活动对自然生态系统造成的破坏。此处为固定搭配effects on sth.意为“对某物产生的影响”,所以此处为介词on。
【58题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:她希望看到杀虫剂以更负责任、有节制且被严格监管的方式使用。此处为“see+宾语+壁宾补”结构,pesticides与use之间为被动关系,所以用过去分词used作宾补。
【59题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:这本书包含大量科学资料、研究案例等,这也体现出她作为一名科学家的严谨。此处引导非限制性定语从句,指代前面整句话的内容,从句缺少主语,所以用关系代词which。
【60题详解】
考查副词。句意:然而,并非所有人都认可这本书。此处修饰动词received,需要用副词,positive对应的副词形式为positively意为“绝对地,肯定地”。
【61题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:卡森现身公共场所和电视节目,为自己的观点进行辩护。此处用非谓语动词作状语,结合句意,此处说明出现在公众视野中的目的,所以用动词不定式to defend作目的状语。
【62题详解】
考查形容词。句意:卡森传递的内容令人警醒,该书带来的影响立竿见影且意义深远。此处位于系动词was后作表语,修饰事物,需用形容词,alarm对应的形容词alarming意为“令人担忧的、使人警醒的”。
【63题详解】
考查动词时态语态。句意:滴滴涕的使用遭到禁止,美国也随之成立了环境保护局。此处为谓语动词,讲述过去发生的事情,主语The use of DDT与ban之间为被动关系,用一般过去时的被动语态,且主语为第三人称单数,所以谓语动词为was banned。
【64题详解】
考查冠词。句意:这本书被视作西方世界环保运动兴起过程中的一个里程碑。milestone为可数名词单数,空前无限定词,结合句意,此处表示“一个里程碑”为泛指,且milestone是以辅音音素开头的单词,所以用不定冠词a。
【65题详解】
考查名词。句意:与此同时,这本书提高了人们保护自然生态系统的意识,进而改变了世界。名词所有格people’s后接名词作宾语,aware对应的名词形式为awareness译为“意识”。

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完成的短文。
Ruby was so proud of her new skates! She put them on right away and was soon rushing along the sidewalk. Her little brother Max could only watch in envy.
“I wish I had a pair!” he told his mum.
“Well, you’re nearly big enough to wear Ruby’s old skates,” she replied.
But when Max tried on Ruby’s old skates, they were too big. He stuffed newspaper into the boots. Much to his disappointment, he fell over each time he tried to stand up in them.
Finally, he gave up, only watching Ruby skating around him.
“I should put on a skating display!” Ruby decided. “All our aunts, uncles and cousins will come. You’ll watch me, Max?”
Max sighed. He didn’t want to watch the show. He wanted to be in it! “Poor Max!” said his mum. Then, she took out a pair of thick red socks to let Max pull them on with the hope of fitting better.
Max eye d the red socks skeptically, saying, “Mum, these look just like my red soccer socks, but smaller.” His mum smiled, “Ah, your red soccer socks are too thin and meant for running, but these are magic socks that have the power to expand and stretch to fit most feet...”
Magic? When Mum left the room, Max took the wand (魔杖) from his magic set and waved it around a few times, “Magic socks, you are so great! Use your magic to help me skate” Max slipped the socks on and tried skating in his bedroom. He didn’t full over! He tried again. He still didn’t fall. He could now skate— thanks to his magic socks! Hooray!
The next morning, when he skated up to Ruby on one foot, she stared in amazement.“ Max, you are magic!” Thrilled, Ruby invited him to join in the show. To prepare well for the show, Max practiced happily with the magic socks on every day. Max even tried tricks like jumps, believing the socks would help him.
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。
The show time came and their family gathered in the garden.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“But you’re not wearing magic socks!” said Mum.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
The show time came and their family gathered in the garden. Max was nervous, afraid that he would fall over again. However, everything went perfectly! The audience held their breath as the two siblings did their special skating tricks, turns and jumps and when it was over, they clapped and cheered. Max had never been more proud! Mum went to hug them and praised Max for his graceful skating skills. Max thanked Mum a lot and owed his success to his magic socks.
“But you’re not wearing magic socks!” said Mum. “I put them in the wash this morning.” Max stared at her, and then at magic socks, which were hanging on the washing line. Actually, he was wearing the red soccer socks. Max was so surprised that he could still skate — even without his magic socks! “You don’t need magic to skate,” said Mum. “You just need to practice and believe in yourself!” She was right! He could skate, all on his own.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了小男孩Max羡慕姐姐Ruby拥有一双新的滑冰鞋,希望自己也能有一双。妈妈给他找来姐姐的旧冰鞋,但是太大了,即便塞上报纸,也总是摔跤。姐姐提议邀请亲戚们一起举办一次滑冰展,Max很想参加,妈妈给他拿来了一双厚厚的红袜子,告诉他这是一双有魔力的可伸缩的袜子,最终Max穿着这双袜子勤奋练习,从一开始总是摔跤到最后可以做一些花样动作,并在滑冰展上取得了成功的故事。
【详解】1. 段落续写:

2. 续写线索:演出到来——亲人们应邀而来——Ruby和其他人的表现——Max的表现——取得成功——发现没有穿魔力袜——不明白为什么会成功——妈妈解惑——点明主题——感谢。
