M: Then a top chef noticed your cooking.
W: Yes, and he gave me a Saturday job at his restaurant. My first task was to prepare a salad. No one had told me the food was for someone famous, but it seemed she really liked it, so as a result the chef offered to train me full time at the restaurant.
M: And do you eat out in your free time?
W: I don’t do that anymore.
M: Because it is expensive?
W: No. On my days off, I just like eating at home. It’s a good chance to be with my parents!

You just need to pay £10 for participation, and you’ll make a valuable contribution to our three aims. Firstly, we long to invest most of our contributions in medical research at the Children’s Health Centre, which is our chief intention to launch this campaign. Secondly, we hope to raise money to build a new school library and restore the swimming pool. Last but not least, we want to encourage children to actively take part in sports and form the habit of exercising as well. There’s a wide range of events. Interest is likely to be the greatest in the football match, with volleyball coming a close second. If I could make a final request — we’ve had plenty of entries for the long jump, but not enough for the high jump, and we don’t want to cancel that, so please see if you can convince your kids to sign up for that. By the way, please tell your kids that the priority is security and competition comes second. And your kids should be accompanied by you. Thank you for your cooperation.

At the start of my first lesson in Chinese calligraphy, my teacher told me to write my name. After I put it down, he said, plainly: “Now I will teach you how to make it beautiful.” I felt my breath catch.
Growing up in Singapore, I had an uneasy relationship with my Chinese name. My parents are ethnically Chinese but they didn’t speak Mandarin. Unfamiliar with Chinese characters, they used fortune tellers to decide my name based on the ideal number of strokes (笔画) for each character, which was calculated for the best fortune. Chinese names can be truly poetic. Not mine. Embarrassingly, the characters for my Chinese name mean, roughly, “old,” “barley” and “warm.” My personal and cultural histories were messy knots.
When I arrived in America for college at 18, I embraced critical analysis and creative expression. It felt like a way to abandon the strict formalities that defined my early years in Singapore’s high-pressure education system, and with it, perhaps, parts of my identity. Suddenly, I felt the need to present myself in a way that Americans would accept. I put on an American accent and set aside my Chinese name. Ultimately, after 14 years in the States, I decided to learn calligraphy. Why not get back in touch with my heritage? I thought.
In calligraphy, the idea is to replicate (复制) the old masters’ techniques, thereby enhancing your own. Every week, my teacher would evaluate my writing. “You need to be braver,” he once observed. “Your challenge is in producing a bold stroke.” For years, I had prided myself on developing an image of integration and confidence despite deep insecurities, but my writing betrayed me.
I had been learning calligraphy to try to get in touch with my cultural roots, but what I was really seeking was a return to myself. That first lesson came with the terrific promise that what had been shameful in myself could be made beautiful—and that I could be the one to do that work. I know now that what calligraphy teaches me is not the value of replication but the possibility that I could know myself more fully.
24. What criterion guided the selection of the author’s Chinese name?
A. Poetic sound patterns. B. Ideal symbolic images.
C. Favorable stroke counts. D. Positive literal meanings.
25. Why did the author adopt an American accent?
A. To break with tradition. B. To fit into the community.
C. To achieve academic success. D. To facilitate language learning.
26. What have we learned about the author’s experience with calligraphy?
A. It revealed her inner self. B. It improved her public image.
C. It presented no challenge to her. D. It enhanced her replication skills.
27. What has the author learned from calligraphy?
A. Fortune favors the bold. B. Embrace who you truly are.
C. Our roots define our identity. D. Planning is good, but doing is better.
【答案】24. C 25. B 26. A 27. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了作者在书法练习的过程中,慢慢找到自我,认识自我,重塑自我概念。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Unfamiliar with Chinese characters, they used fortune tellers to decide my name based on the ideal number of strokes (笔画) for each character, which was calculated for the best fortune.(由于不熟悉汉字,他们让算命先生根据每个汉字的理想笔画数来决定我的名字,这是为最好的运气而计算的)”可知,作者的中文名是父母基于笔画的数量,取吉祥福气之意。故选C。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Suddenly, I felt the need to present myself in a way that Americans would accept. I put on an American accent and set aside my Chinese name.(突然间,我觉得有必要以一种美国人能接受的方式来展示自己。我带上了美国口音,把我的中国名字放在一边)”可知,作者说美国口音,隐藏自己的中文名,是为了融入美国的社会。故选B。

【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“I had been learning calligraphy to try to get in touch with my cultural roots,but what I was really seeking was a return to myself.(我一直在学习书法,试图与我的文化根源接触,但我真正寻求的是回归自我)”可推知,作者本来是想通过书法练习找到自己的文化身份,却在这一过程中重新认识了自我,接纳了自我。故选B。

In 2020, there were 727 million people aged 65 or above, which is expected to more than double by 2050. The silver-haired population represent a massive opportunity for nearly every industry where companies can build a new market for their products and services while creating social value.
The main consumption patterns of elderly population can be classified into two categories: health-related consumption and daily consumption. When it comes to health consumption, seniors are not only concerned about healthcare but also increasingly emphasizes disease prevention. In relation to this, preventive health services, such as physical examinations, will have significant room for growth. Evidently, regular physical examinations require a certain amount of time, economic costs and medical support. Therefore, the high-income population in big cities can sustain them for a longer period of time due to their subjective willingness and objective conditions.
Another key section of the elderly market is represented by the application of medical devices and technology tailored for seniors. One notable area of development is the adoption of remote monitoring systems. These systems make use of cutting-edge technology to enable healthcare professionals to remotely monitor the vital signs and health status of elderly individuals, providing real-time feedback and intervention when necessary. This not only ensures immediate medical attention but also allows older adults to maintain their independence and age comfortably in their own homes.
Acknowledging the importance of social engagement and mental stimulation in enhancing the well-being of seniors, the entertainment industry has emerged as a key component as well. It is centered around offering diverse activities and entertainment options, such as organized tours, social clubs, arts and crafts workshops and music and dance performances, which are meant for the unique preferences and needs of older individuals. They offer a platform for them to connect, share experiences and engage, creating a supportive environment where seniors can enrich life experiences and apply their different talents.
The aging population is one of the most important trends in the world, and it’s indeed a powerful force not just socially but economically.
28. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To raise a topic. B. To present some figures.
C. To explain a concept. D. To provide supportive evidence.
29. Who is most likely to have a check-up regularly according to paragraph 2?
A. A jobless worker in Shenzhen. B. A fit college student in a big city.
C. A wealthy old lawyer in Beijing. D. A retired poor writer in a rural area.
30. What benefits do the systems bring to seniors in paragraph 3?
A. Their health can be tracked distantly. B. They can get free medical treatments,
C. They can receive home visits from doctors. D. Their old-age care problems can be settled.
31. What does the author say about entertainments for seniors?
A. Limited to music. B. Tailored to their needs.
C. Related to their incomes. D. Focused on physical challenges.
【答案】28. A 29. C 30. A 31. B
【解析】

【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“In relation to this, preventive health services, such as physical examinations, will have significant room for growth. Evidently, regular physical examinations require a certain amount of time, economic costs and medical support. Therefore, the high-income population in big cities can sustain them for a longer period of time due to their subjective willingness and objective conditions. (与此相关,体检等预防性卫生服务将有很大的增长空间。显然,定期体检需要一定的时间、经济成本和医疗支持。因此,由于大城市高收入人群的主观意愿和客观条件,他们可以维持更长的时间。)”可知,根据第二段,北京一位富有的老律师最有可能定期体检。故选C项。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“One notable area of development is the adoption of remote monitoring systems. These systems make use of cutting-edge technology to enable healthcare professionals to remotely monitor the vital signs and health status of elderly individuals, providing real-time feedback and intervention when necessary.

(认识到社会参与和精神刺激在提高老年人福祉方面的重要性,娱乐业也成为了一个关键组成部分。它以提供多样化的活动和娱乐选择为中心,如有组织的旅游、社交俱乐部、艺术和手工艺研讨会以及音乐和舞蹈表演,这些活动和娱乐选项旨在满足老年人的独特偏好和需求。他们为他们提供了一个联系、分享经验和参与的平台,创造了一个支持性的环境,让老年人可以丰富生活经验,发挥自己的不同才能。)”可知,老年人的娱乐活动是根据他们的需求量身定制的。故选B项。
D
A self- driving taxi operated by a Chinese tech giant recently hit a passer- by crossing against a traffic light in Wuhan, capital of Hubei Province, sparking heated discussions on the challenges and limitations facing autonomous driving technology, especially in complex circumstances.
Zhang Xiang, an auto sector researcher at North China University of Technology, said that the incident in Wuhan indicates that self- driving technology has progressed significantly over the past few years, but it still encounters difficulties under ever- changing road conditions and has some limitations when dealing with unconventional behavior, such as motorists or passers-by violating traffic rules. There are still some obstacles to integrating the self- driving vehicles into the existing road traffic safety management system, as the legal obligations of relevant subjects involving autonomous vehicles have not been clarified under current laws and regulations.
Meanwhile, the commercial application of robotaxis in more cities across the country has raised concerns about employment, as taxi drivers are worried about losing their jobs due to intense competition from driverless ride-hailing vehicles, industry experts said. So far, more than 20 cities nationwide have introduced policies supporting autonomous driving tests, with more than 60 enterprises having obtained self- driving test licenses.
Nevertheless, some believe that people only prefer to experience this emerging technology, and the number of robotaxis on the road is still far smaller than those of taxis. It is also noted that the pressure on taxi drivers mainly comes from fierce competition between private ride-hailing cars and traditional taxis, and that the autonomous driving vehicles will not have a serious impact on the job market or replace human drivers in the short term.
Despite the challenges, the development of self- driving industry will strengthen the intelligent transformation of auto industry and speed the construction of vehicle- road coordination systems, which support the transfer of information from vehicles to roadway networks as a way to improve traffic efficiency.
According to research company BloombergNEF's “Electric Vehicle Outlook” report, China will operate the world's largest robotaxi fleet of about 12 million self- driving vehicles by2040, followed by the United States with around 7 million such vehicles.
32. What can we learn from Zhang Xiang's words?
A. Self-driving technology suffers a bottleneck.
B. It is not easy to promote self-driving vehicles.
C. Motorists or passers-by tend to break traffic rules.
D. The present road traffic system is far from perfect.
33. Which of the following is a threat to conventional taxi drivers?
A. The impact of private ride- hailing cars. B. Employment caused by driverless vehicles.
C. Complex and ever- changing road conditions. D. A great many passers-by breaking traffic rules.
34. What is the main topic of the text?
A. The future of the transportation industry.
B. The history of autonomous driving technology.
C. The accident of a self-driving taxi and its implications.
D. The advantages of self-driving taxis over traditional taxis.
35. What is the author's attitude towards self- driving industry?
A. Partial. B. Favorable. C. Skeptical. D. Dismissive.
【答案】32. B 33. A 34. A 35. B
【解析】
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“but it still encounters difficulties under ever- changing road conditions and has some limitations when dealing with unconventional behavior, such as motorists or passers- by violating traffic rules. There are still some obstacles to integrating the self- driving vehicles into the existing road traffic safety management system, as the legal obligations of relevant subjects involving autonomous vehicles have not been clarified under current laws and regulations.”(但在不断变化的路况下,它仍然会遇到困难,并且在处理违反交通规则的驾驶者或行人等非常规行为时,它也有一些局限性。将自动驾驶汽车纳入现有道路交通安全管理体系仍存在一些障碍,因为现行法律法规尚未明确涉及自动驾驶汽车的相关主体的法律义务。)可知,我们可以从张翔的话中学到推广自动驾驶汽车并不容易。故选B项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“It is also noted that the pressure on taxi drivers mainly comes from fierce competition between private ride- hailing cars and traditional taxis, and that the autonomous driving vehicles will not have a serious impact on the job market or replace human drivers in the short term.”(报告还指出,出租车司机面临的压力主要来自私家车与传统出租车的激烈竞争,自动驾驶汽车短期内不会对就业市场产生严重影响,也不会取代人类司机。)可知,对传统出租车司机的威胁是私家网约车。故选A项。
【34题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“According to research company BloombergNEF's “Electric Vehicle Outlook” report, China will operate the world's largest robotaxi fleet of about 12 million self- driving vehicles by2040“(根据研究公司彭博新能源财经(BloombergNEF)的“电动汽车展望”报告,到2040年,中国将拥有世界上最大的自动驾驶出租车车队,约有1200万辆自动驾驶汽车)可知,短文主要关于交通运输业的未来。故选A项。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据倒数第二段“Despite the challenges, the development of self- driving industry will strengthen the intelligent transformation of auto industry and speed the construction of vehicle- road coordination systems, which support the transfer of information from vehicles to roadway networks as a way to improve traffic efficiency.”(尽管面临诸多挑战,但自动驾驶产业的发展将加强汽车产业的智能化改造,加快车路协调系统的建设,支持从车辆到道路网络的信息传递,从而提高交通效率。)可知,作者对自动驾驶行业的态度是支持的。故选B项。

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When things went wrong, Fein always had something nice to say.
When Dad forgot about the pizza and it burned, Fein comforted him by saying it would still taste good. And he was right. The pizza edges were dark and crispy, but the middle wasn’t half bad. When Fein’s friend got a low score on the spelling test, Fein said that she would do better next time. And, sure enough, she studied hard and got 100 percent the next week. When his teacher bumped into a book stand in the library, Fein told him not to worry as the librarian wouldn’t be upset. He was right. The librarian just laughed and helped pick up the books.
Fein looked on the bright side. And everyone except Hazel liked that about him. Hazel was the new kid in the class. On her first day, Fein said, “Nice to meet you, Hazel. I think you’ll like it here.” Hazel stared at him. “I doubt it.” Fein didn’t know what to do. He’d never met anyone like Hazel. When the teacher said they’d take a break inside because of the rain, Fein said, “Every cloud has a silver lining.” (每一朵乌云都有一线银边)
“A silver lining?” Hazel shook her head. “Clouds are white. Maybe gray. Where do you get this stuff?” Fein felt as if the wind had been knocked out of him.
Outside the window, the clouds had rolled over the sun. The room felt darker. “Bad things come in threes,” said Hazel. “No outdoor break is number one. What will be the second thing?” The class didn’t have to wait long to find out.
Emma was carrying a tray of paints during art class. She tripped, and the paint went flying. There was blue on the floor and red and black on the walls. Hazel declared it to be the second bad thing. Fein didn’t know what to say. Hazel seemed so sure about the Rule of Three Bad Things. Emma came to look at Fein’s painting. “It’s beautiful. I especially like the grassland,” she said.
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。
Emma picked up the painting, not realizing she had paints on her fingers.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“Want to add your fingerprint on the painting?” Fein asked Hazel.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Emma picked up the painting, not realizing she had paints on her fingers. She gasped as her fingers left bright smudges on Fein’s beautiful grassland. Hazel sighed, “See? Bad thing number three.” The class held their breath. Fein looked at the painting. Then, a warm smile spread across his face. “Actually,” he said, his eyes lighting up, “those splashes of color look like wildflowers blooming! They make the grassland even more alive. It’s a happy accident.” Emma looked relieved, and a small murmur of agreement rippled through the class.
“Want to add your fingerprint on the painting?” Fein asked Hazel. Hazel stared at him, surprised. “Why would I?” she asked suspiciously. “Because,” Fein explained gently, holding out the painting towards her, “then this ‘bad’ thing becomes part of something good – a unique artwork we all helped create, even by accident. Your fingerprint can be a special mark.” Hesitantly, Hazel pressed her finger onto the paint palette and then onto a corner of the painting. For the first time, a tiny, uncertain smile touched her lips. Maybe Fein’s bright side wasn’t so silly after all.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了总能看到事物光明面的Fein和其他同学之间的积极乐观的交流,用幽默且富有创意的办法化解失误,是典型的“积极乐观者对比消极质疑者”的校园故事。

①由第一段首句内容“Emma拿起那幅画,并没有意识到她的手指上沾了颜料。”可知,第一段可承接Emma弄脏画作的情节,Fein用乐观态度化解失误,并示范将错误转化为创意。
②由第二段首句内容““想在画上加上你的指纹吗?”Fein问Hazel。”可知,第二段可通过邀请Hazel参与创作,制造关键转折点。Hazel从抗拒到最终理解乐观的意义,完成人物成长。
2.续写线索:化解失误——新创意——邀请——抗拒——理解——感悟
3.词汇激活

At the start of my first lesson in Chinese calligraphy, my teacher told me to write my name. After I put it down, he said, plainly: “Now I will teach you how to make it beautiful.” I felt my breath catch.
Growing up in Singapore, I had an uneasy relationship with my Chinese name. My parents are ethnically Chinese but they didn’t speak Mandarin. Unfamiliar with Chinese characters, they used fortune tellers to decide my name based on the ideal number of strokes (笔画) for each character, which was calculated for the best fortune. Chinese names can be truly poetic. Not mine. Embarrassingly, the characters for my Chinese name mean, roughly, “old,” “barley” and “warm.” My personal and cultural histories were messy knots.
When I arrived in America for college at 18, I embraced critical analysis and creative expression. It felt like a way to abandon the strict formalities that defined my early years in Singapore’s high-pressure education system, and with it, perhaps, parts of my identity. Suddenly, I felt the need to present myself in a way that Americans would accept. I put on an American accent and set aside my Chinese name. Ultimately, after 14 years in the States, I decided to learn calligraphy. Why not get back in touch with my heritage? I thought.
In calligraphy, the idea is to replicate (复制) the old masters’ techniques, thereby enhancing your own. Every week, my teacher would evaluate my writing. “You need to be braver,” he once observed. “Your challenge is in producing a bold stroke.” For years, I had prided myself on developing an image of integration and confidence despite deep insecurities, but my writing betrayed me.
I had been learning calligraphy to try to get in touch with my cultural roots, but what I was really seeking was a return to myself. That first lesson came with the terrific promise that what had been shameful in myself could be made beautiful—and that I could be the one to do that work. I know now that what calligraphy teaches me is not the value of replication but the possibility that I could know myself more fully.
24. What criterion guided the selection of the author’s Chinese name?
A. Poetic sound patterns. B. Ideal symbolic images.
C. Favorable stroke counts. D. Positive literal meanings.
25. Why did the author adopt an American accent?
A. To break with tradition. B. To fit into the community.
C. To achieve academic success. D. To facilitate language learning.
26. What have we learned about the author’s experience with calligraphy?
A. It revealed her inner self. B. It improved her public image.
C. It presented no challenge to her. D. It enhanced her replication skills.
27. What has the author learned from calligraphy?
A. Fortune favors the bold. B. Embrace who you truly are.
C. Our roots define our identity. D. Planning is good, but doing is better.
C
In 2020, there were 727 million people aged 65 or above, which is expected to more than double by 2050. The silver-haired population represent a massive opportunity for nearly every industry where companies can build a new market for their products and services while creating social value.
The main consumption patterns of elderly population can be classified into two categories: health-related consumption and daily consumption. When it comes to health consumption, seniors are not only concerned about healthcare but also increasingly emphasizes disease prevention. In relation to this, preventive health services, such as physical examinations, will have significant room for growth. Evidently, regular physical examinations require a certain amount of time, economic costs and medical support. Therefore, the high-income population in big cities can sustain them for a longer period of time due to their subjective willingness and objective conditions.
Another key section of the elderly market is represented by the application of medical devices and technology tailored for seniors. One notable area of development is the adoption of remote monitoring systems. These systems make use of cutting-edge technology to enable healthcare professionals to remotely monitor the vital signs and health status of elderly individuals, providing real-time feedback and intervention when necessary. This not only ensures immediate medical attention but also allows older adults to maintain their independence and age comfortably in their own homes.
Acknowledging the importance of social engagement and mental stimulation in enhancing the well-being of seniors, the entertainment industry has emerged as a key component as well. It is centered around offering diverse activities and entertainment options, such as organized tours, social clubs, arts and crafts workshops and music and dance performances, which are meant for the unique preferences and needs of older individuals. They offer a platform for them to connect, share experiences and engage, creating a supportive environment where seniors can enrich life experiences and apply their different talents.
The aging population is one of the most important trends in the world, and it’s indeed a powerful force not just socially but economically.
28. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To raise a topic. B. To present some figures.
C. To explain a concept. D. To provide supportive evidence.
29. Who is most likely to have a check-up regularly according to paragraph 2?
A. A jobless worker in Shenzhen. B. A fit college student in a big city.
C. A wealthy old lawyer in Beijing. D. A retired poor writer in a rural area.
30. What benefits do the systems bring to seniors in paragraph 3?
A. Their health can be tracked distantly. B. They can get free medical treatments,
C. They can receive home visits from doctors. D. Their old-age care problems can be settled.
31. What does the author say about entertainments for seniors?
A. Limited to music. B. Tailored to their needs.
C. Related to their incomes. D. Focused on physical challenges.
D
A self- driving taxi operated by a Chinese tech giant recently hit a passer- by crossing against a traffic light in Wuhan, capital of Hubei Province, sparking heated discussions on the challenges and limitations facing autonomous driving technology, especially in complex circumstances.
Zhang Xiang, an auto sector researcher at North China University of Technology, said that the incident in Wuhan indicates that self- driving technology has progressed significantly over the past few years, but it still encounters difficulties under ever- changing road conditions and has some limitations when dealing with unconventional behavior, such as motorists or passers-by violating traffic rules. There are still some obstacles to integrating the self- driving vehicles into the existing road traffic safety management system, as the legal obligations of relevant subjects involving autonomous vehicles have not been clarified under current laws and regulations.
Meanwhile, the commercial application of robotaxis in more cities across the country has raised concerns about employment, as taxi drivers are worried about losing their jobs due to intense competition from driverless ride-hailing vehicles, industry experts said. So far, more than 20 cities nationwide have introduced policies supporting autonomous driving tests, with more than 60 enterprises having obtained self- driving test licenses.
Nevertheless, some believe that people only prefer to experience this emerging technology, and the number of robotaxis on the road is still far smaller than those of taxis. It is also noted that the pressure on taxi drivers mainly comes from fierce competition between private ride-hailing cars and traditional taxis, and that the autonomous driving vehicles will not have a serious impact on the job market or replace human drivers in the short term.
Despite the challenges, the development of self- driving industry will strengthen the intelligent transformation of auto industry and speed the construction of vehicle- road coordination systems, which support the transfer of information from vehicles to roadway networks as a way to improve traffic efficiency.
According to research company BloombergNEF's “Electric Vehicle Outlook” report, China will operate the world's largest robotaxi fleet of about 12 million self- driving vehicles by2040, followed by the United States with around 7 million such vehicles.
32. What can we learn from Zhang Xiang's words?
A. Self-driving technology suffers a bottleneck.
B. It is not easy to promote self-driving vehicles.
C. Motorists or passers-by tend to break traffic rules.
D. The present road traffic system is far from perfect.
33. Which of the following is a threat to conventional taxi drivers?
A. The impact of private ride- hailing cars. B. Employment caused by driverless vehicles.
C. Complex and ever- changing road conditions. D. A great many passers-by breaking traffic rules.
34. What is the main topic of the text?
A. The future of the transportation industry.
B. The history of autonomous driving technology.
C. The accident of a self-driving taxi and its implications.
D. The advantages of self-driving taxis over traditional taxis.
35. What is the author's attitude towards self- driving industry?
A. Partial. B. Favorable. C. Skeptical. D. Dismissive.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When things went wrong, Fein always had something nice to say.
When Dad forgot about the pizza and it burned, Fein comforted him by saying it would still taste good. And he was right. The pizza edges were dark and crispy, but the middle wasn’t half bad. When Fein’s friend got a low score on the spelling test, Fein said that she would do better next time. And, sure enough, she studied hard and got 100 percent the next week. When his teacher bumped into a book stand in the library, Fein told him not to worry as the librarian wouldn’t be upset. He was right. The librarian just laughed and helped pick up the books.
Fein looked on the bright side. And everyone except Hazel liked that about him. Hazel was the new kid in the class. On her first day, Fein said, “Nice to meet you, Hazel. I think you’ll like it here.” Hazel stared at him. “I doubt it.” Fein didn’t know what to do. He’d never met anyone like Hazel. When the teacher said they’d take a break inside because of the rain, Fein said, “Every cloud has a silver lining.” (每一朵乌云都有一线银边)
“A silver lining?” Hazel shook her head. “Clouds are white. Maybe gray. Where do you get this stuff?” Fein felt as if the wind had been knocked out of him.
Outside the window, the clouds had rolled over the sun. The room felt darker. “Bad things come in threes,” said Hazel. “No outdoor break is number one. What will be the second thing?” The class didn’t have to wait long to find out.
Emma was carrying a tray of paints during art class. She tripped, and the paint went flying. There was blue on the floor and red and black on the walls. Hazel declared it to be the second bad thing. Fein didn’t know what to say. Hazel seemed so sure about the Rule of Three Bad Things. Emma came to look at Fein’s painting. “It’s beautiful. I especially like the grassland,” she said.
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。
Emma picked up the painting, not realizing she had paints on her fingers.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“Want to add your fingerprint on the painting?” Fein asked Hazel.
