Being seventeen without money can be depressing. When the opportunity arrives to earn some needed cash, it would be foolish to pass it up. It is for this reason that when the opportunity to referee elementary basketball came my way, I jumped at the chance. I thought it would be a fun way to earn some “easy money”.
During the years I played on the court and watched the games, I often found myself criticizing the referees. I completely believed that I could do a much better job because of my love for basketball and my familiarity with the game. How difficult could it be, especially with a bunch of third graders?
I looked forward to my first night as a referee but all of my fantasies wore off from the beginning of the game. These sweet third grade boys immediately transformed into horrible creatures right before me. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever imagine the extent of competitiveness in the game.
A battle was in progress on the court while the crazy bystanders cheered and yelled from the stands. My only companion, the whistle, suffered from a severe case of stage fear, filling my head with doubt every time I wished to blow it. My lack of action fueled the heartless crowd. Even on the rare occasions when my whistle gained enough courage to pause the fight, the bystanders still couldn’t calm. The sense of failure flooded every inch of my soul. With only five minutes remaining, Michael, another referee, came in time, saving me from losing my mind. In a flash, I passed my whistle and quickly ran to the safety of the stands.
I realized just how difficult refereeing was. I could have let this heartbreaking evening destroy my future on the court, but instead it stimulated a sense of determination in me to do it better. I still hope to become a great referee someday. In order for this to become a reality, it will take many hours of practice and hard work. No matter how much I wish the cash would be handed to me without requiring any effort, I learned from this experience that there is no such thing as “easy money”.
8. What made the author agree to serve as a basketball referee?
A. His desire to make money. B. His passion for the job.
C. His confidence in third graders. D. His knowledge of basketball.
9. What did the author think of the third grade boys before refereeing the game?
A. Lovely. B. Selfish. C. Impolite. D. Competitive.
10. What happened to the author during the game?
A. He was too nervous to blow the whistle.
B. He was at a loss to announce the results.
C. He couldn’t avoid the bystanders’ physical attack.
D. He couldn’t handle the tough situation on the court.
11. What can we learn from the author’s experience?
A. Lazy hands make for poverty.
B. Money does not grow on trees.
C. Hope for the best and prepare for the worst.
D. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.

【导语】这是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过讲述自己为赚取 “轻松钱” 担任小学篮球裁判却遭遇棘手局面的经历,领悟到“没有不劳而获的财富”,并决心努力提升自己成为优秀裁判。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Being seventeen without money can be depressing. When the opportunity arrives to earn some needed cash, it would be foolish to pass it up. It is for this reason that when the opportunity to referee elementary basketball came my way, I jumped at the chance. I thought it would be a fun way to earn some easy money.(17 岁却没钱,这可能会让人沮丧。当有机会挣些急需的钱时,错过它可就太愚蠢了。正是出于这个原因,当有机会去担任小学篮球比赛的裁判时,我立刻抓住了这个机会。我觉得这会是个既能找点乐子又能轻松赚钱的方式)”可知,作者同意担当小学篮球比赛的裁判的核心驱动力是赚钱的渴望。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“I looked forward to my first night as a referee but all of my fantasies wore off from the beginning of the game. These sweet third grade boys immediately transformed into horrible creatures right before me. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever imagine the extent of competitiveness in the game.(我期待着自己作为裁判的第一个夜晚,但从比赛一开始,我所有的幻想就破灭了。这些可爱的三年级小男孩,在我面前瞬间变成了可怕的小怪兽。即使在我最疯狂的想象中,我也从未料到这场比赛的竞争会如此激烈)”可知,作者在裁判这场比赛之前觉得这些三年级的孩子可爱。故选A。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“A battle was in progress on the court while the crazy bystanders cheered and yelled from the stands. My only companion, the whistle, suffered from a severe case of stage fear, filling my head with doubt every time I wished to blow it. My lack of action fueled the heartless crowd. Even on the rare occasions when my whistle gained enough courage to pause the fight, the bystanders still couldn’t calm. The sense of failure flooded every inch of my soul. With only five minutes remaining, Michael, another referee, came in time, saving me from losing my mind. In a flash, I passed my whistle and quickly ran to the safety of the stands.(一场战斗正在球场上激烈进行,疯狂的旁观者在看台上欢呼呐喊。我唯一的伙伴——哨子,却患了严重的怯场症,每次我想吹响它时,它都让我满心疑虑。我的不作为更是助长了那群无情观众的气焰。即便在极少数情况下,我的哨子鼓足勇气暂停了争斗,旁观者们依旧无法平静下来。失败的感觉淹没了我灵魂的每一寸。只剩五分钟时,另一位裁判迈克尔及时赶到,把我从崩溃的边缘拯救了回来。一瞬间,我递出哨子,迅速跑到看台安全的地方)”可知,男孩们像 怪兽 一样激烈竞争,场面如同 战斗; 作者每次想吹哨都充满犹豫,不敢行动; 观众疯狂欢呼呐喊,即使吹哨暂停比赛也无法平息; 最终需要另一位裁判 Michael 及时救场,作者才得以脱身。由此可推断作者无法应对球场上的棘手局面。故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据末段中的“No matter how much I wish the cash would be handed to me without requiring any effort, I learned from this experience that there is no such thing as easy money.(无论我多么希望能不费吹灰之力就得到这笔钱,但从这次经历中我明白了,天下没有免费的午餐)”可推断,钱财并非自枝头自然生长,获取之路需付出辛劳。故选B。
D
We take our speech abilities for granted. Most people do not stop to think of how other animals and insects communicate with each other. Ants are amazing creatures that have a tireless work pattern and complex social structure. To achieve this, they must have some ways of communicating with each other. Obviously, ants do not speak as we do, so how do they communicate?
Ants communicate by releasing pheromones (信息素) that function outside of the body to send chemical messages to the ant that receives it and by touching their antennae (触角) to feel and smell each other. The best example that we can see very clearly is that ants find food sources and drop pheromones on their ways. By using their antennae to detect pheromone trails and following a sweeping pattern, they encounter a trail. Once the pheromone trail is found, they follow it with one antenna on either side of the path, ensuring they keep on track. This allows other ants to follow the pheromones. The result of these pheromone paths is long convoys of ants, marching one behind each other to collect food.
The queen ant uses pheromones to signal. As the queen ages, she gives off pheromones that tell the ant colony that she is dying. They begin feeding and preparing a pupa (蛹) to be the new queen. When ants greet each other with their antennae, they can tell if they are friends or foes and what function each ant fulfills in the nest.
Scientists know that this is possible, but they are still trying to identify which pheromones share this information. Ants also give off pheromones that identify the nest they belong to, their social status, and their maturity. The more researchers study ants, the more they discover about their ability to translate information to one another, learn, form collective memories and sound alarms. Ants are truly amazing communicators.
12. How could ants communicate according to the text?
A. By attracting companions via sounds.
B. By sending alarm signals to the queen.
C. By identifying pheromones with antennae.
D. By keeping on the same track.
13. What is the function of the pheromone trail?
A. To spot enemies in the ant colony.
B. To help companions find food sources.
C. To keep the orders of the ant community.
D. To enable ants to communicate with humans.
14. What is the closest in meaning to the underlined word “convoys” in Para 2?
A. Circles. B. Signals. C. Lines. D. Exchanges.
15. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Ants have no collective memories.
B. Ants alarm-sounding ability is unique.
C. Researchers have identified the types of pheromones.
D. More secrets on ants’ communication remain unknown.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了蚂蚁如何通过释放信息素和使用触角进行交流,以及科学家对此进行的研究。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Ants communicate by releasing pheromones (信息素) that function outside of the body to send chemical messages to the ant that receives it and by touching their antennae (触角) to feel and smell each other.(蚂蚁通过释放体外起作用的信息素来向接收信息的蚂蚁发送化学信息,并通过触摸它们的触角来感觉和闻对方的味道进行交流。)”可知,蚂蚁通过触角识别信息素来交流。故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The best example that we can see very clearly is that ants find food sources and drop pheromones on their ways. By using their antennae to detect pheromone trails and following a sweeping pattern, they encounter a trail. Once the pheromone trail is found, they follow it with one antenna on either side of the path, ensuring they keep on track. This allows other ants to follow the pheromones. The result of these pheromone paths is long lines of ants, marching one behind each other to collect food.(我们能清晰看到的最佳例子是,蚂蚁找到食物源后,会在沿途留下信息素。它们通过触角探测信息素痕迹,并以一种搜索模式前行,从而遇到信息素轨迹。一旦发现信息素痕迹,它们就会让两只触角分别位于路径两侧,沿着痕迹前进,确保不会偏离路线。这使得其他蚂蚁能够顺着这些信息素找到食物。这些信息素轨迹最终形成了长长的蚂蚁队伍,它们一只跟着一只前行觅食。)”可知,信息素轨迹的功能是帮助同伴找到食物来源。故选B。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据下文“marching one behind each other to collect food(一只跟着一只前行觅食。)”可知,蚂蚁们排成一行,一个接一个地行进觅食,所以“convoys”的意思是“队列”,选项C“Lines”的意思与“convoys”相近。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“The more researchers study ants, the more they discover about their ability to translate information to one another, learn, form collective memories and sound alarms. Ants are truly amazing communicators.(研究人员对蚂蚁的研究越多,他们就越能发现蚂蚁相互传递信息、学习、形成集体记忆和发出警报的能力。蚂蚁真是令人惊叹的交流者。)”可推知,蚂蚁交流的更多秘密仍然未知。故选D。
第二节 (共5小题;每小题2. 5分,满分12. 5分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
In just over a month, Australia will start a social media ban (禁令). From December 10, people under 16 will only be able to see public content on platforms (平台) such as Facebook and TikTok, and they will not be allowed to have their own accounts. ____16____ But many parents worry about how teens will respond.
My research shows social and digital media use is already a major source of family conflict. Young people often pressure parents for devices or certain apps to keep in touch with their friends. So a government reason for the ban is to help parents manage this problem. ____17____
However, we still don’t know what will happen on December 10. Some experts argue young people may get around the ban, for example with apps that hide identity (身份). This calls for solutions. ____18____ Because children are different, parents should act based on family values and a child’s individuality.
Even so, if teens are used to social media and suddenly it’s gone, they may feel sad or angry, and parents will have to manage the results. Social media is not only mindless scrolling (滚动屏幕). ____19____ Therefore, they will need other ways to stay in touch, and parents should help them keep friendships. Parents should also know that this change can be difficult.
____20____ So parents should explain that less time on social media can reduce endless scrolling and cyberbullying (网络霸凌). Yet the ban does not make kids 100 percent “safe” online: they may move to other spaces, and the ban covers only some platforms. So parents should keep talking about what children see and do online, help them build the ability to judge online information. Also, they need to stay interested and willing to guide their children instead of controlling everything.
A. It can help young people build connections.
B. Some safety experts and parents welcome this.
C. But there is no one right answer for every family.
D. It may be easier for them to say, “This is the law.”
E. It is sometimes hard to see eye to eye with each other.
F. Actually, young people respond better to rules when given a clear reason.
G. This is eating away at the close relationship between parents and children.
【答案】16. B 17. D 18. C 19. A 20. F
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要探讨澳大利亚即将实施的未成年人社交媒体禁令,分析其对家庭的影响,并为家长提供应对该禁令的相关建议。
【16题详解】
根据前文“In just over a month, Australia will start a social media ban (禁令). From December 10, people under 16 will only be able to see public content on platforms (平台) such as Facebook and TikTok, and they will not be allowed to have their own accounts. (再过一个多月,澳大利亚将开始实施社交媒体禁令。从12月10日起,16岁以下的青少年只能在脸书、抖音等平台查看公共内容,且不允许拥有个人账号。)”以及后文“But many parents worry about how teens will respond. (但许多家长担心青少年会作何反应。)”中的But可知,此空应说明有部分群体对该禁令持支持态度,与后文家长的担忧形成转折,B选项“Some safety experts and parents welcome this. (一些安全专家和家长对此表示欢迎。)”体现了对禁令的正面态度,与后文的转折关系衔接自然,符合语境。故选B项。
【17题详解】
根据前文“My research shows social and digital media use is already a major source of family conflict. Young people often pressure parents for devices or certain apps to keep in touch with their friends. So a government reason for the ban is to help parents manage this problem. (我的研究表明,使用社交和数字媒体已经成为家庭冲突的主要根源。年轻人常常向父母施压,要求配备电子设备或安装特定应用程序来与朋友保持联系。因此,政府出台这项禁令的一个原因是帮助父母解决这一问题。)”可知,前文说明禁令能帮助父母解决因社交媒体引发的家庭矛盾,此空应承接该内容,说明禁令对父母的具体帮助,D选项“It may be easier for them to say, “This is the law.” (对他们来说,说“这是法律规定的”会容易得多。)”中的them指代前文的parents,且点明禁令能让父母在管教孩子时更有依据,符合语境。故选D项。
【18题详解】
根据前文“However, we still don’t know what will happen on December 10. Some experts argue young people may get around the ban, for example with apps that hide identity (身份). This calls for solutions. (然而,我们仍不知道12月10日会发生什么。一些专家认为,年轻人可能会通过一些隐藏身份的应用程序来规避这项禁令。这就需要找到解决办法。)”以及后文“Because children are different, parents should act based on family values and a child’s individuality. (因为每个孩子都是不同的,父母应该根据家庭价值观和孩子的个性来采取行动。)”可知,前文指出需要解决年轻人规避禁令的问题,后文说明父母应根据孩子的具体情况采取行动,此空应衔接二者,说明解决该问题没有统一的办法,C选项“But there is no one right answer for every family. (但对于每个家庭来说,没有一个通用的正确答案。)”承接前文的解决办法需求,且引出后文的个性化应对方式,符合语境。故选C项。
【19题详解】
根据前文“Even so, if teens are used to social media and suddenly it’s gone, they may feel sad or angry, and parents will have to manage the results. Social media is not only mindless scrolling (滚动屏幕). (即便如此,如果青少年习惯了使用社交媒体,却突然无法使用,他们可能会感到难过或愤怒,家长们就不得不应对这样的结果。社交媒体并非只是无意义地滚动屏幕。)”以及后文“Therefore, they will need other ways to stay in touch, and parents should help them keep friendships. (因此,他们需要其他方式来保持联系,父母应该帮助他们维持友谊。)”可知,前文指出社交媒体并非只有消极作用,后文说明青少年需要其他方式维持社交联系,此空应说明社交媒体的积极社交作用,A选项“It can help young people build connections. (它能帮助年轻人建立人际关系。)”承接前文的社交媒体的非消极性,且引出后文的维持友谊的需求,符合语境。故选A项。
【20题详解】
根据后文“So parents should explain that less time on social media can reduce endless scrolling and cyberbullying (网络霸凌). (因此,父母应该向孩子解释,减少使用社交媒体的时间可以减少无意义的刷屏和网络霸凌。)”可知,后文建议父母向孩子解释禁令背后的原因,此空应作为该建议的前提,说明年轻人对有明确原因的规则接受度更高,F选项“Actually, young people respond better to rules when given a clear reason. (事实上,当得知明确的原因时,年轻人会更愿意遵守规则。)”引出后文的解释原因的建议,符合语境。故选F项。

A few months before I started high school, my parents gave me the best gift: a cellphone. I spent the whole summer with my face in the screen. I didn’t pay attention to my family or the things around me. Being online was more important than being with people.
So, you can guess how unhappy I was when I learned what my dad planned for our family vacation that year. “This year, ” my dad said, “we’re going to do something special. We’re going camping!” It was not my dream vacation because I was still thinking about my phone.
In fact, I was so busy looking at my phone that I didn’t look up until we drove across a bridge to the campsite. I looked out of the window and saw tall redwood trees. Their branches (树枝) seemed to touch the sky. I saw a river, with dark water showing between the white rapids (激流). The air from the open windows was hot. But none of that caught my eye. The reason I looked up was much more serious: my phone had no service (网络信号).
The last hour in the car was hard. My dad said he had chosen a campsite with no cell service, and my phone would be useless until we got home. I would be stuck in the forest for four days with no way to reach the outside world!
On the first day, I went through every teenage feeling: I was angry, I asked for help, and I kept going between sadness and anger. I went to bed angrily that night. But when I woke up in the morning, something had changed.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150个左右,可参考文中加粗词汇部分;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I stopped looking at my phone and started looking around me.

The next days went by fast because we did many fun things.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
I stopped looking at my phone and started looking around me. I walked out of the tent and saw how beautiful the forest was. The trees stood tall and quiet. Birds sang in the morning light. I saw a small river running beside the campsite. The water was so clear that I could see the stones at the bottom. For the first time, I felt peace. My dad came over with a smile. “Want to go for a walk?” he asked. I nodded. We walked along the river and talked about many things. I didn’t think about my phone at all. It felt good to just be there with him.
The next days went by fast because we did many fun things. We went fishing and I caught my first fish. Dad taught me how to make a fire. We cooked together and ate under the stars. At night, we sat by the fire and told stories. I even made friends with other kids at the campsite. We played games and ran through the forest. I laughed more than I had in a long time. When it was time to go home, I felt sad to leave. On the way back, I looked at my phone but didn’t turn it on. I just looked out the window and smiled. I realized that being present is better than being online.

Being seventeen without money can be depressing. When the opportunity arrives to earn some needed cash, it would be foolish to pass it up. It is for this reason that when the opportunity to referee elementary basketball came my way, I jumped at the chance. I thought it would be a fun way to earn some “easy money”.
During the years I played on the court and watched the games, I often found myself criticizing the referees. I completely believed that I could do a much better job because of my love for basketball and my familiarity with the game. How difficult could it be, especially with a bunch of third graders?
I looked forward to my first night as a referee but all of my fantasies wore off from the beginning of the game. These sweet third grade boys immediately transformed into horrible creatures right before me. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever imagine the extent of competitiveness in the game.
A battle was in progress on the court while the crazy bystanders cheered and yelled from the stands. My only companion, the whistle, suffered from a severe case of stage fear, filling my head with doubt every time I wished to blow it. My lack of action fueled the heartless crowd. Even on the rare occasions when my whistle gained enough courage to pause the fight, the bystanders still couldn’t calm. The sense of failure flooded every inch of my soul. With only five minutes remaining, Michael, another referee, came in time, saving me from losing my mind. In a flash, I passed my whistle and quickly ran to the safety of the stands.
I realized just how difficult refereeing was. I could have let this heartbreaking evening destroy my future on the court, but instead it stimulated a sense of determination in me to do it better. I still hope to become a great referee someday. In order for this to become a reality, it will take many hours of practice and hard work. No matter how much I wish the cash would be handed to me without requiring any effort, I learned from this experience that there is no such thing as “easy money”.
8. What made the author agree to serve as a basketball referee?
A. His desire to make money. B. His passion for the job.
C. His confidence in third graders. D. His knowledge of basketball.
9. What did the author think of the third grade boys before refereeing the game?
A. Lovely. B. Selfish. C. Impolite. D. Competitive.
10. What happened to the author during the game?
A. He was too nervous to blow the whistle.
B. He was at a loss to announce the results.
C. He couldn’t avoid the bystanders’ physical attack.
D. He couldn’t handle the tough situation on the court.
11. What can we learn from the author’s experience?
A. Lazy hands make for poverty.
B. Money does not grow on trees.
C. Hope for the best and prepare for the worst.
D. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.

We take our speech abilities for granted. Most people do not stop to think of how other animals and insects communicate with each other. Ants are amazing creatures that have a tireless work pattern and complex social structure. To achieve this, they must have some ways of communicating with each other. Obviously, ants do not speak as we do, so how do they communicate?
Ants communicate by releasing pheromones (信息素) that function outside of the body to send chemical messages to the ant that receives it and by touching their antennae (触角) to feel and smell each other. The best example that we can see very clearly is that ants find food sources and drop pheromones on their ways. By using their antennae to detect pheromone trails and following a sweeping pattern, they encounter a trail. Once the pheromone trail is found, they follow it with one antenna on either side of the path, ensuring they keep on track. This allows other ants to follow the pheromones. The result of these pheromone paths is long convoys of ants, marching one behind each other to collect food.
The queen ant uses pheromones to signal. As the queen ages, she gives off pheromones that tell the ant colony that she is dying. They begin feeding and preparing a pupa (蛹) to be the new queen. When ants greet each other with their antennae, they can tell if they are friends or foes and what function each ant fulfills in the nest.
Scientists know that this is possible, but they are still trying to identify which pheromones share this information. Ants also give off pheromones that identify the nest they belong to, their social status, and their maturity. The more researchers study ants, the more they discover about their ability to translate information to one another, learn, form collective memories and sound alarms. Ants are truly amazing communicators.
12. How could ants communicate according to the text?
A. By attracting companions via sounds.
B. By sending alarm signals to the queen.
C. By identifying pheromones with antennae.
D. By keeping on the same track.
13. What is the function of the pheromone trail?
A. To spot enemies in the ant colony.
B. To help companions find food sources.
C. To keep the orders of the ant community.
D. To enable ants to communicate with humans.
14. What is the closest in meaning to the underlined word “convoys” in Para 2?
A. Circles. B. Signals. C. Lines. D. Exchanges.
15. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Ants have no collective memories.
B. Ants alarm-sounding ability is unique.
C. Researchers have identified the types of pheromones.
D. More secrets on ants’ communication remain unknown.

From December 10, people under 16 will only be able to see public content on platforms (平台) such as Facebook and TikTok, and they will not be allowed to have their own accounts. ____16____ But many parents worry about how teens will respond.
My research shows social and digital media use is already a major source of family conflict. Young people often pressure parents for devices or certain apps to keep in touch with their friends. So a government reason for the ban is to help parents manage this problem. ____17____
However, we still don’t know what will happen on December 10. Some experts argue young people may get around the ban, for example with apps that hide identity (身份). This calls for solutions. ____18____ Because children are different, parents should act based on family values and a child’s individuality.
Even so, if teens are used to social media and suddenly it’s gone, they may feel sad or angry, and parents will have to manage the results. Social media is not only mindless scrolling (滚动屏幕). ____19____ Therefore, they will need other ways to stay in touch, and parents should help them keep friendships. Parents should also know that this change can be difficult.
____20____ So parents should explain that less time on social media can reduce endless scrolling and cyberbullying (网络霸凌). Yet the ban does not make kids 100 percent “safe” online: they may move to other spaces, and the ban covers only some platforms. So parents should keep talking about what children see and do online, help them build the ability to judge online information. Also, they need to stay interested and willing to guide their children instead of controlling everything.
A. It can help young people build connections.
B. Some safety experts and parents welcome this.
C. But there is no one right answer for every family.
D. It may be easier for them to say, “This is the law.”
E. It is sometimes hard to see eye to eye with each other.
F. Actually, young people respond better to rules when given a clear reason.
G. This is eating away at the close relationship between parents and children.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
A few months before I started high school, my parents gave me the best gift: a cellphone. I spent the whole summer with my face in the screen. I didn’t pay attention to my family or the things around me. Being online was more important than being with people.
So, you can guess how unhappy I was when I learned what my dad planned for our family vacation that year. “This year, ” my dad said, “we’re going to do something special. We’re going camping!” It was not my dream vacation because I was still thinking about my phone.
In fact, I was so busy looking at my phone that I didn’t look up until we drove across a bridge to the campsite. I looked out of the window and saw tall redwood trees. Their branches (树枝) seemed to touch the sky. I saw a river, with dark water showing between the white rapids (激流). The air from the open windows was hot. But none of that caught my eye. The reason I looked up was much more serious: my phone had no service (网络信号).
The last hour in the car was hard. My dad said he had chosen a campsite with no cell service, and my phone would be useless until we got home. I would be stuck in the forest for four days with no way to reach the outside world!
On the first day, I went through every teenage feeling: I was angry, I asked for help, and I kept going between sadness and anger. I went to bed angrily that night. But when I woke up in the morning, something had changed.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150个左右,可参考文中加粗词汇部分;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I stopped looking at my phone and started looking around me.
