A
Trendy vacation spots often come with big crowds and expensive price tags. To help you avoid both, look at the hottest travel cities below and find alternative destinations that provide similar atmosphere and activities.
Maui vs. St. Lucia
Maui, Hawaii: $4,259
St. Lucia: $3,650
If you want your vacation to include amazing volcanic beaches, coral reefs, rainforest hikes to waterfalls, and mountain scenery, you could go to Maui. But if you trade the waters of the Pacific for the Caribbean, you can enjoy a less expensive island tour in Saint Lucia. Visit the buildings with a long history. Bathe in the pool under a waterfall. Explore the nature reserve and observe more than 180 bird species in particular. You might even spot the rare St. Lucia parrot.
Barcelona vs. Mexico City
Barcelona, Spain: $3,819
Mexico City, Mexico: $2,319
Both Barcelona and Mexico City offer visitors historic streets, world-class museums and enough cuisine — but visiting Mexico City costs considerably less. Visit the National Anthropology Museum. This massive concrete building, built in the 1960s, is as breathtaking as the world’s largest collection of ancient Mexican artifacts (文物) housed inside it.
Athens vs. Cuzco
Athens, Greece: $3,910
Cuzco, Peru: $3,042
Looking for ancient ruins, mountainous scenery and warm hospitality? Greece may come to mind, but Peru checks all of those boxes and more. The ancient Inca ruins draw over a million visitors each year. You’ll need to plan in advance to see its magical peaks: Daily tickets are limited and tend to sell out, especially during peak seasons in July and August.
1. What is unique to St. Lucia compared to Maui?
A. Volcanic beach. B. Rainforest hike.
C. Pacific scenery. D. Bird diversity.
2. What can we know about the National Anthropology Museum?
A. It has a history of over 100 years.
B. It is made of wood and stone.
C. It links Barcelona and Mexico City.
D. It is as impressive as its collections.
3. What can be inferred about visiting Cuzco in August?
A. Tickets must be booked early.
B. Visiting time is restricted.
C. Fewer tourists visit the ruins.
D. Hotel prices drop significantly.
B
I often reflect on my father’s influence through his crossword puzzles (字谜游戏). Appa, my father, once sadly mentioned wishing he had put money to buy homes for his children. Yet when he passed away, he left me a box of worn but functional yellow pencils, tools he used daily to solve crosswords. They gave me insight into his quiet dedication.
Appa used to read the day’s newspapers cover to cover, not for news but to hunt for forgotten words for a crossword puzzle. “Ah, got it” he’d exclaim, his joy coming not from wealth but from simple victories. He would pause puzzles to play with his grandchildren or listen to their stories.
Influenced by his love for words, I built my career writing stories for nonprofit, valuing passion over pay. When friends criticized my low earnings, I hesitated. I picked up one of his yellow pencils. Though hurt, I found comfort in readers’ praise online, mirroring Appa’s focus on the bright side.
Appa would read aloud to me, training my love for language. By introducing me to the power of words, Appa guided my life’s mission, a purpose I never questioned nor felt the need to explore more cleverly, for it was our shared passion that mattered. While content for many years, I occasionally felt a sense of inner imbalance. At such moments, Appa would remind me: “Money isn’t everything, and more wealth doesn’t mean greater happiness.”
You see, a crossword is complete and brings joy — with only so many words, each resting on connections with others. And so now I take assignments, some well-paid, some not, but together, most importantly, they fill me with joy. That is why I remain committed to this career.
4. What did Appa’s yellow pencils symbolize for the writer?
A. His unspoken financial regrets. B. His desire for his kids to succeed.
C. His commitment to simple joys. D. His perseverance against difficulty.
5. Why did Appa read newspapers thoroughly?
A. To improve his writing skills. B. To teach his children language.
C. To keep up with the latest news. D. To seek solutions for word puzzles.
6. How did the author feel when starting her writing career?
A. Conflicted but recognised. B. Regretful but reflective.
C. Indifferent to the feedback. D. Motivated to change jobs.
7. What does the author intend to convey through his story?
A. Fortune plays an important role in life. B. Value lies in inner passion and content.
C. Career choice prioritizes personal taste. D. Hard work finally leads to great success.
C
Have you ever felt unexpectedly calm walking barefoot on grass or noticed stress fade while standing in the ocean? These experiences may involve “ground”, the practice of direct physical contact with the earth’s surface. Our ancestors were naturally interwoven with the earth, but modern life — through homes, roads, and shoes — has disconnected it. Today, social media promotes grounding mats and sheets as sleep and health aids, but does science back these claims?
The human body is conductive, exchanging electricity with the earth and artificial sources. Grounding supporters claim that reconnecting with the earth’s subtle electric charge (微电荷) offers physical and mental benefits, though evidence remains limited. Grounding products, e.g., foot mats, bed sheets, copy this connection by linking to a home’s electrical ground terminal, aiming to bridge the body and earth’s charge without outdoor exposure.
A 2022 study found 30-minute daily grounding sessions (5 times a week) improved sleep a bit in Alzheimer’s patients, but no changes in anxiety or depression. These results suggest mixed effects, with some improvements possibly due to psychological effect or daily habit. Grounding is also marketed for reducing pain and inflammation (炎症). A 2025 study assigned 60 participants to use either a grounding mat or an inactive mat that doesn’t work for 31 days. While the grounding group slept slightly longer on average, both groups improved similarly in sleep quality, stress, and daytime sleepiness. However, long- term impacts on fitness or recovery remain unclear. Critics note most studies are small-scale, while supporters see grounding as a low-risk additional method.
Grounding products range from $30 to $300+, but outdoor grounding, like walking barefoot, is free. While no studies show harm, those with lasting sleep issues should consult a doctor first. Outdoor light exposure alone aids circadian rhythms (内部生物钟) and mood, possibly outweighing costly tools. In short, grounding is a fascinating concept, but more research is needed to confirm its benefits beyond social media advertisements.
8. What does the underlined word “interwoven” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Occupational. B. Connected. C. Explored. D. Attracted.
9. What is the purpose of grounding products in paragraph 2?
A. To block artificial electricity. B. To replace medical treatments.
C. To copy earth contact indoors. D. To measure body conductivity.
10. What do the 2022 and 2025 grounding studies agree on?
A. Showing limited sleep benefits. B. Changing the level of anxiety.
C. Confirming ever-claimed effects. D. Demonstrating pain reduction.
11. What is the author’s attitude toward grounding products?
A. Critically opposed. B. Fairly objective.
C. Strongly supportive. D. Seemingly uninterested.
D
In recent years, fake news has become a hot topic in both news reports and scientific studies. A paper published in Science by David Lazer and 15 other researchers studies fake news. They say fake news is false information that looks like real news but isn’t made the right way. These researchers come from fields like computer science, psychology, and law.
Fake news spreads for many reasons. On one hand, technology advancement allows anyone to share information online. Social media bots, which are programmed to imitate real persons, can spread false stories quickly, even if they’re not true. On the other hand, we get too much information every day. It’s hard for people, even fact-checkers, to have enough time to tell real news and fake news apart before it spreads widely. Additionally, people usually choose news sources that match their beliefs and tastes. Therefore, mass media often show stories their viewers want to hear, which are mostly unchecked in fact. This creates echo chambers (回音室) where people only see one side of things.
Psychological research provides insights into combating fake news. Studies demonstrate that logical thinking ability significantly improves fake news detection. One study finds that people who think logically are less likely to share false messages online. But we still don’t know if fake news can change people’s beliefs or what other unknown effects.
In the face of fake news spread via social media, experts advise media consumers to be more reflective. Don’t believe everything you read, but consider the possibility that it’s false. We need to build communication rules where challenging others is acceptable without turning conversations into rude arguments — for example, disagreeing politely can spare presenters from public embarrassment.
In the long run, truth defines the mainstream. But we need to act quickly. A society that values true information can stay strong and avoid the bad effects of fake news.
12. How do researchers define fake news according to the passage?
A. Messages hard to believe. B. News from unchecked sources.
C. Stories shared individually. D. False information appearing real.
13. Why do mass media often present what viewers want to hear?
A. To meet their preferences. B. To challenge existing beliefs.
C. To check the facts strictly. D. To display various opinions.
14. What effect does logical thinking have on people’s response to fake news?
A. Preventing fake news being detected.
B. Making people quickly shift their opinions.
C. Lowering the chance of sharing false stories.
D. Expanding the amount of news people read.
15. Which is the best title of the passage?
A. The Impact of Technology on News.
B. Combating False News in the Digital Age.
C. The Role of Social Media in Information Spread.
D. The Benefit of Logical Thinking in Media Literacy.

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。
When I was seven years old, my family moved from Mexico to America. In Mexico, I was a cheerful girl who loved making people laugh with my jokes and inventing fun games to play with my friends. However, when I arrived in America, I found it hard to fit in, and I became quieter.
We lived in a small house with a modest yard where we grew vegetables-my responsibility. While I took pride in watching them grow, there were times when I dreamed of having a beautiful garden like my schoolmate Luella’s, with its delicate tulips (郁金香). Although Luella lived in the same neighborhood as me, we barely knew each other.
It was after a tornado that Luella and I finally became close friends.
The tornado struck on a Sunday afternoon. The gentle breeze transformed into a strong wind, and thick gray clouds filled the sky. Gradually, the tornado took shape, starting as a thin rope and growing into a large black funnel (漏斗). My entire family gathered in the bathroom, seeking shelter from the storm. Terrified, I sat close to my mom, knees in my chest. After the storm had passed, our worries and fears were replaced by relief that we were unharmed and that our house had remained undamaged.
As I stepped outside, I witnessed the extent of the damage the tornado had caused to our neighborhood. Across the street, a tall tree had fallen, crushing Luella’s garden in front of her yellow house. We hurried over to check on it. Fortunately, her family seemed to be away at the time, and no one was injured. However, her once-beautiful garden was in ruins, with the fallen tree destroying the tulips and debris (碎片) spread everywhere. I could only imagine how heartbroken they must feel seeing this.
Then my mom’s usual words rang in my ear, “It is more blessed to give than to receive,” and my family started to think about how we could help.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Just at that moment, Luella’s family returned in their car.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Even after the debris was cleared, I could still sense Luella’s sorrow for her lost garden.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章为游客推荐了三个热门旅游城市的替代目的地,以避开人群和高昂费用,并分别介绍了每对目的地之间的相似之处和独特亮点。

I often reflect on my father’s influence through his crossword puzzles (字谜游戏). Appa, my father, once sadly mentioned wishing he had put money to buy homes for his children. Yet when he passed away, he left me a box of worn but functional yellow pencils, tools he used daily to solve crosswords. They gave me insight into his quiet dedication.
Appa used to read the day’s newspapers cover to cover, not for news but to hunt for forgotten words for a crossword puzzle. “Ah, got it” he’d exclaim, his joy coming not from wealth but from simple victories. He would pause puzzles to play with his grandchildren or listen to their stories.
Influenced by his love for words, I built my career writing stories for nonprofit, valuing passion over pay. When friends criticized my low earnings, I hesitated. I picked up one of his yellow pencils. Though hurt, I found comfort in readers’ praise online, mirroring Appa’s focus on the bright side.
Appa would read aloud to me, training my love for language. By introducing me to the power of words, Appa guided my life’s mission, a purpose I never questioned nor felt the need to explore more cleverly, for it was our shared passion that mattered. While content for many years, I occasionally felt a sense of inner imbalance. At such moments, Appa would remind me: “Money isn’t everything, and more wealth doesn’t mean greater happiness.”
You see, a crossword is complete and brings joy — with only so many words, each resting on connections with others. And so now I take assignments, some well-paid, some not, but together, most importantly, they fill me with joy. That is why I remain committed to this career.
4. What did Appa’s yellow pencils symbolize for the writer?
A. His unspoken financial regrets. B. His desire for his kids to succeed.
C. His commitment to simple joys. D. His perseverance against difficulty.
5. Why did Appa read newspapers thoroughly?
A. To improve his writing skills. B. To teach his children language.
C. To keep up with the latest news. D. To seek solutions for word puzzles.
6. How did the author feel when starting her writing career?
A. Conflicted but recognised. B. Regretful but reflective.
C. Indifferent to the feedback. D. Motivated to change jobs.
7. What does the author intend to convey through his story?
A. Fortune plays an important role in life. B. Value lies in inner passion and content.
C. Career choice prioritizes personal taste. D. Hard work finally leads to great success.
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. A 7. B
【解析】
【导语】主要讲述了作者父亲通过字谜游戏影响了作者,他热爱文字、看重简单快乐。作者从事写作,虽收入低但坚守热爱,明白财富不等于幸福,快乐源于热爱。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“Yet when he passed away, he left me a box of worn but functional yellow pencils, tools he used daily to solve crosswords. They gave me insight into his quiet dedication.( 然而,当他去世时,他留给我一盒破旧但功能正常的黄色铅笔,这是他每天用来解决填字游戏的工具。他们让我了解了他默默奉献的精神)”以及第二段中““Ah, got it” he’d exclaim, his joy coming not from wealth but from simple victories.(“啊,明白了。”他会惊呼,他的快乐不是来自财富,而是来自简单的胜利)”可推知,黄色铅笔对作者来说象征着父亲对简单快乐的执着。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Appa used to read the day’s newspapers cover to cover, not for news but to hunt for forgotten words for a crossword puzzle.( Appa过去常常把当天的报纸从头到尾读一遍,不是为了看新闻,而是为了找一些被遗忘的单词来做填字游戏)”可知,父亲通读报纸不是为了新闻,而是为了寻找字谜中遗忘的单词,也就是为字谜寻找答案。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“When friends criticized my low earnings, I hesitated. I picked up one of his yellow pencils. Though hurt, I found comfort in readers’ praise online, mirroring Appa’s focus on the bright side.(当朋友们批评我收入低时,我犹豫了。我拿起他的一支黄色铅笔。尽管受到伤害,但我还是从网上读者的赞美中找到了安慰,这反映了Appa对光明一面的关注)”可推知,作者在开始写作生涯时感到犹豫,同时又感到被认可。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章大意以及第四段中“By introducing me to the power of words, Appa guided my life’s mission, a purpose I never questioned nor felt the need to explore more cleverly, for it was our shared passion that mattered. While content for many years, I occasionally felt a sense of inner imbalance. At such moments, Appa would remind me: “Money isn’t everything, and more wealth doesn’t mean greater happiness.”(Appa让我认识到语言的力量,指引着我的人生使命,我从未质疑过这个目标,也没有觉得有必要更聪明地探索它,因为重要的是我们共同的激情。虽然满足了许多年,但我偶尔会感到内心的不平衡。在这种时候,Appa会提醒我:“钱不是万能的,更多的财富并不意味着更大的幸福。”)”可知,作者通过讲述父亲热爱解字谜,从简单胜利中获得快乐,以及自己受父亲影响从事写作职业的经历,表达了价值在于内心的热情和满足。
C
Have you ever felt unexpectedly calm walking barefoot on grass or noticed stress fade while standing in the ocean? These experiences may involve “ground”, the practice of direct physical contact with the earth’s surface. Our ancestors were naturally interwoven with the earth, but modern life — through homes, roads, and shoes — has disconnected it. Today, social media promotes grounding mats and sheets as sleep and health aids, but does science back these claims?
The human body is conductive, exchanging electricity with the earth and artificial sources. Grounding supporters claim that reconnecting with the earth’s subtle electric charge (微电荷) offers physical and mental benefits, though evidence remains limited. Grounding products, e.g., foot mats, bed sheets, copy this connection by linking to a home’s electrical ground terminal, aiming to bridge the body and earth’s charge without outdoor exposure.
A 2022 study found 30-minute daily grounding sessions (5 times a week) improved sleep a bit in Alzheimer’s patients, but no changes in anxiety or depression. These results suggest mixed effects, with some improvements possibly due to psychological effect or daily habit. Grounding is also marketed for reducing pain and inflammation (炎症). A 2025 study assigned 60 participants to use either a grounding mat or an inactive mat that doesn’t work for 31 days. While the grounding group slept slightly longer on average, both groups improved similarly in sleep quality, stress, and daytime sleepiness. However, long- term impacts on fitness or recovery remain unclear. Critics note most studies are small-scale, while supporters see grounding as a low-risk additional method.
Grounding products range from $30 to $300+, but outdoor grounding, like walking barefoot, is free. While no studies show harm, those with lasting sleep issues should consult a doctor first. Outdoor light exposure alone aids circadian rhythms (内部生物钟) and mood, possibly outweighing costly tools. In short, grounding is a fascinating concept, but more research is needed to confirm its benefits beyond social media advertisements.
8. What does the underlined word “interwoven” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Occupational. B. Connected. C. Explored. D. Attracted.
9. What is the purpose of grounding products in paragraph 2?
A. To block artificial electricity. B. To replace medical treatments.
C. To copy earth contact indoors. D. To measure body conductivity.
10. What do the 2022 and 2025 grounding studies agree on?
A. Showing limited sleep benefits. B. Changing the level of anxiety.
C. Confirming ever-claimed effects. D. Demonstrating pain reduction.
11. What is the author’s attitude toward grounding products?
A. Critically opposed. B. Fairly objective.
C. Strongly supportive. D. Seemingly uninterested.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍接地疗法及其相关产品,现有研究证据不足,仅小幅改善睡眠,多数益处缺乏科学佐证;赤脚接地免费安全,相较高价产品更划算,该疗法仍需更多研究验证功效。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“Our ancestors were naturally interwoven with the earth, but modern life — through homes, roads, and shoes — has disconnected it.(我们的祖先原本与大地紧密相融,可房屋、道路和鞋子构成的现代生活,割裂了人与大地的联结。)”可知,but表示转折,说明interwoven与后文disconnected形成对比,意为“联系的”,与B选项“Connected(联系)”含义一致。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Grounding products, e.g., foot mats, bed sheets, copy this connection by linking to a home’s electrical ground terminal, aiming to bridge the body and earth’s charge without outdoor exposure.(接地产品,例如脚垫、床单等,可以通过将它们与家庭的电气接地端子相连来实现这种接地方式,这样可以将人体与大地的电荷连接起来,同时避免暴露在户外环境中。)”可知,第二段中提及“接地”的目的是为了在室内模拟与地球的接触。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“A 2022 study found 30-minute daily grounding sessions (5 times a week) improved sleep a bit in Alzheimer’s patients, but no changes in anxiety or depression.(2022年的一项研究发现,每天进行30分钟的接地练习(每周5次),能略微改善阿尔茨海默病患者的睡眠状况,但对焦虑或抑郁状况并无影响。)”以及“While the grounding group slept slightly longer on average, both groups improved similarly in sleep quality, stress, and daytime sleepiness.(虽然接地组平均睡眠时间稍长,但两组在睡眠质量、压力和白天困倦程度方面的改善程度相似。)”可知,2022年和2025年的睡眠研究结果都表明睡眠效果有限。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Grounding products range from $30 to $300+, but outdoor grounding, like walking barefoot, is free. While no studies show harm, those with lasting sleep issues should consult a doctor first. Outdoor light exposure alone aids circadian rhythms (内部生物钟) and mood, possibly outweighing costly tools. In short, grounding is a fascinating concept, but more research is needed to confirm its benefits beyond social media advertisements.(接地产品的价格从30美元到300多美元不等,但户外接地(比如赤脚行走)是免费的。虽然目前没有研究显示会有危害,但那些长期存在睡眠问题的人应该先咨询医生。仅户外光照就能帮助调节生物钟和改善情绪,这可能比昂贵的工具更有作用。简而言之,接地是一个非常有趣的概念,但还需要更多的研究来证实其除社交媒体宣传之外的其他益处。)”可知,作者既介绍了接地产品的价格,也指出证据有限、需更多研究,同时提到户外接地的优势,由此推测作者对接地产品态度客观中立。

In recent years, fake news has become a hot topic in both news reports and scientific studies. A paper published in Science by David Lazer and 15 other researchers studies fake news. They say fake news is false information that looks like real news but isn’t made the right way. These researchers come from fields like computer science, psychology, and law.
Fake news spreads for many reasons. On one hand, technology advancement allows anyone to share information online. Social media bots, which are programmed to imitate real persons, can spread false stories quickly, even if they’re not true. On the other hand, we get too much information every day. It’s hard for people, even fact-checkers, to have enough time to tell real news and fake news apart before it spreads widely. Additionally, people usually choose news sources that match their beliefs and tastes. Therefore, mass media often show stories their viewers want to hear, which are mostly unchecked in fact. This creates echo chambers (回音室) where people only see one side of things.
Psychological research provides insights into combating fake news. Studies demonstrate that logical thinking ability significantly improves fake news detection. One study finds that people who think logically are less likely to share false messages online. But we still don’t know if fake news can change people’s beliefs or what other unknown effects.
In the face of fake news spread via social media, experts advise media consumers to be more reflective. Don’t believe everything you read, but consider the possibility that it’s false. We need to build communication rules where challenging others is acceptable without turning conversations into rude arguments — for example, disagreeing politely can spare presenters from public embarrassment.
In the long run, truth defines the mainstream. But we need to act quickly. A society that values true information can stay strong and avoid the bad effects of fake news.
12. How do researchers define fake news according to the passage?
A. Messages hard to believe. B. News from unchecked sources.
C. Stories shared individually. D. False information appearing real.
13. Why do mass media often present what viewers want to hear?
A. To meet their preferences. B. To challenge existing beliefs.
C. To check the facts strictly. D. To display various opinions.
14. What effect does logical thinking have on people’s response to fake news?
A. Preventing fake news being detected.
B. Making people quickly shift their opinions.
C. Lowering the chance of sharing false stories.
D. Expanding the amount of news people read.
15. Which is the best title of the passage?
A. The Impact of Technology on News.
B. Combating False News in the Digital Age.
C. The Role of Social Media in Information Spread.
D. The Benefit of Logical Thinking in Media Literacy.
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【导语】文章介绍假新闻定义、传播原因、应对办法以及求真对社会的重要意义。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“They say fake news is false information that looks like real news but isn’t made the right way.(他们称假新闻是看似真实新闻、却并非正规制作的虚假信息。)”可知,假新闻是看似真实的虚假信息。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Additionally, people usually choose news sources that match their beliefs and tastes. Therefore, mass media often show stories their viewers want to hear, which are mostly unchecked in fact.(此外,人们通常选择契合自身观念与喜好的新闻来源。因此大众媒体常常推送观众想听的内容,这些内容大多未经事实核查。)”可知,媒体此举是迎合观众偏好。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“One study finds that people who think logically are less likely to share false messages online.(一项研究发现,拥有逻辑思维的人在线转发虚假信息的概率更低。)”可知,逻辑思维会降低人们转发假消息的几率。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。全文依次介绍假新闻定义、传播诱因、心理层面应对方法、大众应对建议与长远价值,核心围绕如何应对抵制假新闻展开。“Combating False News in the Digital Age(在数字时代抵制虚假新闻)”符合题意。

My Views on PE Tests
PE tests play an important role in our school life. They not only check our fitness but also help us develop a strong will, which is what many students need most.
I still remember how nervous I was before the 800-meter run last term. I almost wanted to give up, but my classmates cheered for me. I finished the race, and I felt so proud. Since then, I have been running every morning.
What I have learned is that PE tests push us to become better. We should take them seriously.

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。
When I was seven years old, my family moved from Mexico to America. In Mexico, I was a cheerful girl who loved making people laugh with my jokes and inventing fun games to play with my friends. However, when I arrived in America, I found it hard to fit in, and I became quieter.
We lived in a small house with a modest yard where we grew vegetables-my responsibility. While I took pride in watching them grow, there were times when I dreamed of having a beautiful garden like my schoolmate Luella’s, with its delicate tulips (郁金香). Although Luella lived in the same neighborhood as me, we barely knew each other.
It was after a tornado that Luella and I finally became close friends.
The tornado struck on a Sunday afternoon. The gentle breeze transformed into a strong wind, and thick gray clouds filled the sky. Gradually, the tornado took shape, starting as a thin rope and growing into a large black funnel (漏斗). My entire family gathered in the bathroom, seeking shelter from the storm. Terrified, I sat close to my mom, knees in my chest. After the storm had passed, our worries and fears were replaced by relief that we were unharmed and that our house had remained undamaged.
As I stepped outside, I witnessed the extent of the damage the tornado had caused to our neighborhood. Across the street, a tall tree had fallen, crushing Luella’s garden in front of her yellow house. We hurried over to check on it. Fortunately, her family seemed to be away at the time, and no one was injured. However, her once-beautiful garden was in ruins, with the fallen tree destroying the tulips and debris (碎片) spread everywhere. I could only imagine how heartbroken they must feel seeing this.
Then my mom’s usual words rang in my ear, “It is more blessed to give than to receive,” and my family started to think about how we could help.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Just at that moment, Luella’s family returned in their car.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Even after the debris was cleared, I could still sense Luella’s sorrow for her lost garden.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Just at that moment, Luella’ family returned in their car. Empathy surged within me as I saw their shock and disbelief. Approaching Luella, I tightly held her hands and said, “I’m so sorry for your loss, but thankfully you’re all right.” She weakly nodded, still puzzled by the shocking scene. My family volunteered to help clean up the mess, cutting down the branches and removing the fallen trees. To lift Luella’s spirits and give her comfort, I tried my best to cheer her up while tidying the garden with her, during which my own joyful personality seemed to revive a bit.
Even after the debris was cleared, I could still sense Luella’ sorrow for her lost garden. My heart went out to her, knowing how much she had cherished those tulips that she had devoted so much energy to. Determined to restore the beauty of the garden, I suggested we rebuild the garden, which Luella delightedly agreed. Carefully planted and watered, the new tulip seedlings once again filled the garden, which symbolized the beginning of our friendship, as well as the turning that I finally got embraced by this new environment. My mom was right: it’s more blessed to give than to receive because when you give, you may receive something unexpected in return.
