Dunhuang, a city along the ancient Silk Road, held the Third World Conference of Sinologists. It was at this event that Joel Mikael Walker, whose Chinese name is Wu Ming, a German doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), shared his ideas after he had studied and practiced TCM in China for ten years.
Wu Ming received professional TCM training in Henan, home to the medical sage Zhang Zhongjing. During these years, he memorized plenty of body acupoints (穴位) and Chinese herbal formulas by heart, and studied ancient medical books carefully. Apart from medical skills, he was deeply attracted by TCM’s whole-view idea about life.
In his opinion, Western medicine generally targets specific symptoms, while TCM stresses harmony between humanity and nature. The yin-yang thought tells people that different ideas need not lead to fights. Instead, opposite forces can exist together and keep a healthy balanced state.
The modern world is faced with arguments, environmental pressure and cultural divides. In Wu Ming’s view, ancient Chinese wisdom offers workable ways to solve problems. It is not just old history, but useful wisdom that helps deal with modern troubles.
Since he has been influenced by Chinese culture for ten years, Wu Ming has accepted its central ideas. He is now trying his best to spread TCM and Chinese traditional philosophy to people all over the world. His experience proves that traditional Chinese culture is attractive, and it can help different civilizations build trust and friendship.
4. What can we know about Wu Ming from paragraph 2?
A. He picked up TCM skills with ease. B. He was fascinated by TCM’s life philosophy.
C. He learned TCM mainly from famous doctors. D. He could hardly understand ancient medical texts.
5. What idea does yin-yang philosophy support according to Wu Ming?
A. Conflicts will disappear if we ignore differences.
B. Ancient medical theories are useless for modern society.
C. Western medicine should give up treating symptoms.
D. Opposite powers can exist together in balance.
6. The word “workable” in paragraph 4 most probably means ________.
A. simple B. temporary C. practical D. familiar
7. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To introduce the long history and development of TCM.
B. To explain the basic ideas of yin-yang philosophy in detail.
C. To call on more foreigners to come to China to study medicine.
D. To show the value of traditional Chinese culture through a foreign learner’s experience.
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. C 7. D
【解析】

C
Stretching along the Brazilian coastline, the Atlantic Forest supports an extraordinary range of life. However, human development has reduced the forest to about a third of its original size. This pressure has led to the decline, migration, or disappearance of many species, which destroys the food supply that mosquitoes rely on.
To figure out what animals mosquitoes feed on, a research group placed light-catching tools in two nature reserves in Rio de Janeiro State. They picked out female mosquitoes that had just taken blood meals and examined them in the laboratory. Scientists took DNA from the blood inside the insects and analyzed a special DNA part that works like a species ID card. Every vertebrate (脊椎动物) species has its unique genetic feature here. By comparing these ID marks with standard data files, researchers could tell which animals the mosquitoes had bitten.
The tools caught 1,714 mosquitoes of 52 kinds. Among them, 145 female mosquitoes contained blood, and scientists successfully found the blood source for 24 samples. Those blood meals came from 18 humans, one frog, six birds, one dog-like animal and one mouse. The result shows that because there are far fewer wild animals to feed on, mosquitoes turn to bite humans more easily, since human beings are the most common living hosts in these areas. “Mosquitoes do not choose hosts simply,” one researcher explained. “Though certain mosquitoes favor particular animals, how many hosts are nearby plays a much bigger role.”
Mosquito bites are more than just troublesome. In the researched areas, mosquitoes carry viruses such as yellow fever and threaten local people’s health. Researchers point out that learning about mosquitoes’ feeding habits helps people understand how illnesses spread. The study also has clear shortcomings: less than 10 percent of caught mosquitoes carried clear blood, and scientists only recognized the blood source for around 16 percent of these samples. Even so, the results are very useful. They can support mosquito prevention work and build better early warning systems for disease spread.
8. Why do mosquitoes change their food sources?
A. Different mosquito species compete for food. B. Many species are decreasing due to forest loss.
C. Their food preferences have changed. D. Wild animals stay away from mosquitoes.
9. Which aspect of the study does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A. Its process. B. Its findings. C. Its purposes. D. Its significance.
10. What is the main conclusion of the study?
A. Some mosquitoes feed on just certain hosts.
B. Humans emerge as a dominant blood source.
C. A small number of mosquitoes spread viruses.
D. Mosquito feeding behavior is too complex to be explained.
11. What does the author think of the study?
A. Interesting but doubtful. B. Unreliable due to its scale.
C. Valuable despite its limitations. D. More theoretical than practical.
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【导语】主要介绍大西洋森林缩减使野生动物减少,研究通过DNA检测蚊子吸血来源,分析其叮咬人类的原因与研究价值。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“However, human development has reduced the forest to about a third of its original size. This pressure has led to the decline, migration, or disappearance of many species, which destroys the food supply that mosquitoes rely on.(然而人类开发使森林只剩原有三分之一,许多物种减少、迁徙或消失,破坏了蚊子赖以生存的食物来源。)”可知,森林消失导致大量野生动物减少,蚊子因此改变吸血对象。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“To figure out what animals mosquitoes feed on, a research group placed light-catching tools in two nature reserves in Rio de Janeiro State. They picked out female mosquitoes that had just taken blood meals and examined them in the laboratory. Scientists took DNA from the blood inside the insects and analyzed a special DNA part that works like a species ID card. Every vertebrate (脊椎动物) species has its unique genetic feature here. By comparing these ID marks with standard data files, researchers could tell which animals the mosquitoes had bitten.(为弄清蚊子以哪些动物的血液为食,一支研究团队在里约热内卢州的两处自然保护区放置了诱蚊灯设备。他们筛选出刚吸食过血液的雌性蚊子,并带回实验室检测。 科学家提取蚊子腹中血液里的 DNA,分析一段特殊的 DNA 片段,该片段的作用相当于物种身份证。每种脊椎动物在此处都拥有独一无二的基因特征。研究人员将这些基因 “身份标识” 与标准数据库比对,就能判断出蚊子叮咬过哪些动物)”可知,依次介绍研究操作:放置捕蚊工具、采集吸血雌蚊、提取血液DNA、比对基因识别宿主,完整描述实验操作步骤,主要讲解研究过程。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“and scientists successfully found the blood source for 24 samples. Those blood meals came from 18 humans, one frog, six birds, one dog-like animal and one mouse. The result shows that because there are far fewer wild animals to feed on, mosquitoes turn to bite humans more easily, since human beings are the most common living hosts in these areas.(科学家成功确定了24个样本的血液来源。这些血液来自18名人类、一只青蛙、六只鸟类、一只狗科动物和一只老鼠。结果显示可捕食的野生动物大幅减少,蚊子更易叮咬人类,人类是当地最常见宿主)”可知,人类成为蚊子主要吸血来源。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“The study also has clear shortcomings: less than 10 percent of caught mosquitoes carried clear blood, and scientists only recognized the blood source for around 16 percent of these samples. Even so, the results are very useful. They can support mosquito prevention work and build better early warning systems for disease spread.(这项研究也存在明显短板:捕获的蚊子中,体内留有清晰可检测血液的不足一成,而科学家仅能识别出其中约 16% 样本的血液来源。即便如此,研究结果仍具备很高实用价值。相关结论可为蚊虫防治工作提供依据,并助力搭建更完善的疾病传播预警体系。)”可知,作者认为研究虽有局限,但极具价值。

For decades, creating new proteins — tiny substances carrying out nearly all cell activities — has required years of repeated lab tests. Now AI turns this slow work into efficient science, with influences stretching far beyond labs.
In April 2026, MIT researchers launched OpenProtein.AI, a free public platform offering global biologists AI protein design tools. Previously, only rich labs could afford such computing software. Professor David Baker said they aimed to popularize protein engineering. His former tool RoseTTAFold could accurately predict protein structures. Now scientists with limited funds can design special enzymes (酶), vaccines and eco-friendly materials in hours instead of months.
This technology brings valuable applications. Medically, AI-made proteins are tested as targeted cancer treatments that only attack tumor cells without harming healthy tissue. In agriculture, engineered enzymes help crops absorb nitrogen better, cutting chemical fertilizer use by up to 40%. Environmentally, new proteins break plastic waste into safe materials, finishing a 400-year natural process within weeks.
However, this rapid progress has raised important concerns. Stanford bioethics expert Dr. Sarah Chen warns untested AI-made organisms may damage ecosystems. She states the fast design speed is both the biggest advantage and threat: nature evolved proteins over billions of years, while humans remake them in days.
Another challenge is ensuring fairness in access. Though the platform is free, users need professional training and stable internet, which are rare in developing nations. Without support for local scientists, AI biotechnology will widen global research gaps instead of narrowing them.
Most scientists remain optimistic despite these worries. Three AI-developed drug candidates are in clinical trials, and over 200 teams from 45 countries have joined the platform. As one researcher said: “AI never replaces biologists — it gives every biologist great power.”
12. What was the main purpose of launching OpenProtein.AI?
A. To make protein design tools available to more scientists.
B. To replace laboratory experiments entirely.
C. To compete with Professor Baker’s earlier research.
D. To sell AI software to medicine firms.
13. According to paragraph 3, AI-designed proteins in agriculture could ________.
A. assist crops to break down plastic waste in farm soil
B. replace traditional crops with artificial ones
C. raise the survival rate of crops suffering from tumor diseases
D. help plants take in nitrogen more effectively
14. Which of the following is one of the challenges of AI protein design technology?
A. It fails to create effective medicine for cancer treatment.
B. Its platform charges high fees for users in developing countries.
C. It cannot fully break down plastic waste quickly.
D. It may enlarge the research gap between different countries.
15. What is the best title for the passage?
A. The History of Protein Design in Labs B. AI: A New Power for Protein Design
C. Different Uses of Artificial Intelligence D. Risks Brought by AI Biotechnology
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍AI大幅革新蛋白质设计,介绍MIT免费公共平台、多元应用、现存隐患与科研界乐观前景。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“In April 2026, MIT researchers launched OpenProtein.AI, a free public platform offering global biologists AI protein design tools. Previously, only rich labs could afford such computing software. Professor David Baker said they aimed to popularize protein engineering.(2026年4月麻省理工推出OpenProtein.AI免费公共平台,向全球生物学家开放AI蛋白设计工具。此前只有财力雄厚的实验室才能负担这类计算软件,贝克教授表示目标是普及蛋白质工程技术。)”可知推出该平台是为让更多科学家用上蛋白设计工具。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“In agriculture, engineered enzymes help crops absorb nitrogen better, cutting chemical fertilizer use by up to 40%.(农业领域,AI改造的酶能帮助作物更好吸收氮元素,最多减少40%化肥使用量。)”可知AI蛋白能助力植物高效吸收氮。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Without support for local scientists, AI biotechnology will widen global research gaps instead of narrowing them.(若不扶持发展中国家本土科研人员,AI生物技术会拉大而非缩小全球科研差距。)”可知该技术存在的一大挑战是可能扩大各国科研差距。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,文章开篇点明AI改变传统蛋白设计低效难题,接着介绍公共平台、医疗农业环保多重应用,再谈风险,结尾说明全球科研团队积极使用该技术,核心围绕AI成为蛋白质设计的全新核心力量展开。B项“人工智能:蛋白质设计的全新动力”为最佳标题。

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。
Dan was lost. His wife knew it. His children didn’t, at least not yet. He tried to keep it from them as long as possible.
He thought he knew the way. He had led them off the trail for just a few minutes. Karen looked at him, her face pale. Now he sat on the same rock he had sat on an hour ago. Panic gripped his heart. He fought it down. Dan glanced at his watch. 2PM. Several hours until sunset, the air which was warm now would plunge (骤降) tonight. They had not prepared to spend the night on the mountain.
“What are we going to do?” Karen whispered. The children played at the edge of the water, careful not to get their feet wet. She had cautioned them about that.
Dan tried to smile at her. He gripped her hand. His hands were sweaty.
“Honey,” Dan said with more confidence than he felt. “We will make it through. If we have to, we will pile pine needles together and burrow down in them.”
“What about wild animals?” He saw tears in Karen’s eyes.
“Honey, everything will be OK. We might as well eat those candy bars you insisted we pack.”
Daron and Jun’s eyes lit up when they saw the candy bars. After devouring (狼吞虎咽地吃光), Dan came up with an idea to lift their spirits. He promised the kid who sang loudest without going off-key could pick five candy bars once they got back home.
“I’ll start!” Daron burst into a song, with June quickly joining him. The two competed to sing louder, barely staying in tune. When they finished, their voices echoed across the quiet woods.
Dan and Karen laughed warmly. “I can’t pick a winner,” Dan said.
“They were equally wonderful,” Karen smiled. “It’s a tie — you both get candy treats later!”
“Yeh.” Both children jumped up and down.
Suddenly, there was a rustling (沙沙声) in the woods. It seemed to come straight at them. Karen gathered the children, placing them behind her.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;

“I heard your singing echoing through the woods and tracked it here,” the ranger (护林员) said.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Dan looked around and saw a large branch at his feet. He quickly picked it up, holding it tightly as a makeshift weapon. His heart raced, and he stepped in front of Karen and the children, determined to protect them. The rustling grew louder, and he braced himself for whatever was about to emerge. His mind raced with thoughts of what kind of wild animal it could be. Then, to his great relief, a park ranger stepped out from behind the bushes.
“I heard your singing echoing through the woods and tracked it here,” the ranger (护林员) said. A huge smile spread across Dan’s face. “Thank goodness you're here,” he exclaimed. “We got lost and didn’t know what to do.” The ranger assured them that everything was going to be fine. He led them back to the main trail, and along the way, Dan and his family expressed their gratitude. The children were excited to be on their way home, already looking forward to their promised candy bars. It was a scary experience, but it also brought the family closer together.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述 Dan 一家在山林中迷路,虽暂时用糖果和唱歌安抚家人情绪,但随后听到树林里的沙沙声,气氛紧张起来。

In terms of capital cities, San Juan, Puerto Rico, is pretty amazing. But if you limit your trip to San Juan, you cannot fully appreciate the beauty of the island. Whether you’ve visited before or this is your first time, I encourage you to check out some resorts in Puerto Rico outside of San Juan, which will show you a new side of the island that you haven’t experienced before.
Royal Isabela
Ideal for a quiet, romantic getaway, this hotel has 20 separate small houses. While it’s not a typical resort, it provides almost all services and facilities that resort visitors desire. It offers wonderful oceanfront views of the impressive coastline. Nearby, you can play golf, explore the beautiful Guajataca River or enjoy a day on the beach. You can get close to nature here, because the hotel is designed to show local plants and animals.
Villa Montana Beach Resort
Villa Montana Beach Resort is far from crowded tourist spots compared with many top resorts in Puerto Rico, but it’s worthwhile if you look for a special, quiet trip. Families, couples, and small groups all love this place for its peace. It has swimming pools, private beaches, and other facilities like tennis courts and a small kids’ playground.
Parguera Plaza Hotel
You can hardly find many adults-only resorts in Puerto Rico, since most resorts are designed for families. Parguera Plaza Hotel serves adults only and has won great favor among travelers. It is fashionable and comfortable, and it is famous for its high-quality service. Besides, its pool is open 24 hours a day. The only weakness is that there is no beach within walking distance, yet it lies close to tourist attractions in the La Parguera area.
Copamarina Beach Resort
Located in the lush southwestern area of Puerto Rico, Copamarina Beach Resort covers 20 acres of beautiful natural scenery. Also, you can visit a nearly one-mile tropical Caribbean beach nearby. As a medium-sized resort, it is perfect for families, small groups, and couples who want a peaceful holiday.

Dunhuang, a city along the ancient Silk Road, held the Third World Conference of Sinologists. It was at this event that Joel Mikael Walker, whose Chinese name is Wu Ming, a German doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), shared his ideas after he had studied and practiced TCM in China for ten years.
Wu Ming received professional TCM training in Henan, home to the medical sage Zhang Zhongjing. During these years, he memorized plenty of body acupoints (穴位) and Chinese herbal formulas by heart, and studied ancient medical books carefully. Apart from medical skills, he was deeply attracted by TCM’s whole-view idea about life.
In his opinion, Western medicine generally targets specific symptoms, while TCM stresses harmony between humanity and nature. The yin-yang thought tells people that different ideas need not lead to fights. Instead, opposite forces can exist together and keep a healthy balanced state.
The modern world is faced with arguments, environmental pressure and cultural divides. In Wu Ming’s view, ancient Chinese wisdom offers workable ways to solve problems. It is not just old history, but useful wisdom that helps deal with modern troubles.
Since he has been influenced by Chinese culture for ten years, Wu Ming has accepted its central ideas. He is now trying his best to spread TCM and Chinese traditional philosophy to people all over the world. His experience proves that traditional Chinese culture is attractive, and it can help different civilizations build trust and friendship.
4. What can we know about Wu Ming from paragraph 2?
A. He picked up TCM skills with ease. B. He was fascinated by TCM’s life philosophy.
C. He learned TCM mainly from famous doctors. D. He could hardly understand ancient medical texts.
5. What idea does yin-yang philosophy support according to Wu Ming?
A. Conflicts will disappear if we ignore differences.
B. Ancient medical theories are useless for modern society.
C. Western medicine should give up treating symptoms.
D. Opposite powers can exist together in balance.
6. The word “workable” in paragraph 4 most probably means ________.
A. simple B. temporary C. practical D. familiar
7. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To introduce the long history and development of TCM.
B. To explain the basic ideas of yin-yang philosophy in detail.
C. To call on more foreigners to come to China to study medicine.
D. To show the value of traditional Chinese culture through a foreign learner’s experience.
C
Stretching along the Brazilian coastline, the Atlantic Forest supports an extraordinary range of life. However, human development has reduced the forest to about a third of its original size. This pressure has led to the decline, migration, or disappearance of many species, which destroys the food supply that mosquitoes rely on.
To figure out what animals mosquitoes feed on, a research group placed light-catching tools in two nature reserves in Rio de Janeiro State. They picked out female mosquitoes that had just taken blood meals and examined them in the laboratory. Scientists took DNA from the blood inside the insects and analyzed a special DNA part that works like a species ID card. Every vertebrate (脊椎动物) species has its unique genetic feature here. By comparing these ID marks with standard data files, researchers could tell which animals the mosquitoes had bitten.
The tools caught 1,714 mosquitoes of 52 kinds. Among them, 145 female mosquitoes contained blood, and scientists successfully found the blood source for 24 samples. Those blood meals came from 18 humans, one frog, six birds, one dog-like animal and one mouse. The result shows that because there are far fewer wild animals to feed on, mosquitoes turn to bite humans more easily, since human beings are the most common living hosts in these areas. “Mosquitoes do not choose hosts simply,” one researcher explained. “Though certain mosquitoes favor particular animals, how many hosts are nearby plays a much bigger role.”
Mosquito bites are more than just troublesome. In the researched areas, mosquitoes carry viruses such as yellow fever and threaten local people’s health. Researchers point out that learning about mosquitoes’ feeding habits helps people understand how illnesses spread. The study also has clear shortcomings: less than 10 percent of caught mosquitoes carried clear blood, and scientists only recognized the blood source for around 16 percent of these samples. Even so, the results are very useful. They can support mosquito prevention work and build better early warning systems for disease spread.
8. Why do mosquitoes change their food sources?
A. Different mosquito species compete for food. B. Many species are decreasing due to forest loss.
C. Their food preferences have changed. D. Wild animals stay away from mosquitoes.
9. Which aspect of the study does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A. Its process. B. Its findings. C. Its purposes. D. Its significance.
10. What is the main conclusion of the study?
A. Some mosquitoes feed on just certain hosts.
B. Humans emerge as a dominant blood source.
C. A small number of mosquitoes spread viruses.
D. Mosquito feeding behavior is too complex to be explained.
11. What does the author think of the study?
A. Interesting but doubtful. B. Unreliable due to its scale.
C. Valuable despite its limitations. D. More theoretical than practical.
D
For decades, creating new proteins — tiny substances carrying out nearly all cell activities — has required years of repeated lab tests. Now AI turns this slow work into efficient science, with influences stretching far beyond labs.
In April 2026, MIT researchers launched OpenProtein.AI, a free public platform offering global biologists AI protein design tools. Previously, only rich labs could afford such computing software. Professor David Baker said they aimed to popularize protein engineering. His former tool RoseTTAFold could accurately predict protein structures. Now scientists with limited funds can design special enzymes (酶), vaccines and eco-friendly materials in hours instead of months.
This technology brings valuable applications. Medically, AI-made proteins are tested as targeted cancer treatments that only attack tumor cells without harming healthy tissue. In agriculture, engineered enzymes help crops absorb nitrogen better, cutting chemical fertilizer use by up to 40%. Environmentally, new proteins break plastic waste into safe materials, finishing a 400-year natural process within weeks.
However, this rapid progress has raised important concerns. Stanford bioethics expert Dr. Sarah Chen warns untested AI-made organisms may damage ecosystems. She states the fast design speed is both the biggest advantage and threat: nature evolved proteins over billions of years, while humans remake them in days.
Another challenge is ensuring fairness in access. Though the platform is free, users need professional training and stable internet, which are rare in developing nations. Without support for local scientists, AI biotechnology will widen global research gaps instead of narrowing them.
Most scientists remain optimistic despite these worries. Three AI-developed drug candidates are in clinical trials, and over 200 teams from 45 countries have joined the platform. As one researcher said: “AI never replaces biologists — it gives every biologist great power.”
12. What was the main purpose of launching OpenProtein.AI?
A. To make protein design tools available to more scientists.
B. To replace laboratory experiments entirely.
C. To compete with Professor Baker’s earlier research.
D. To sell AI software to medicine firms.
13. According to paragraph 3, AI-designed proteins in agriculture could ________.
A. assist crops to break down plastic waste in farm soil
B. replace traditional crops with artificial ones
C. raise the survival rate of crops suffering from tumor diseases
D. help plants take in nitrogen more effectively
14. Which of the following is one of the challenges of AI protein design technology?
A. It fails to create effective medicine for cancer treatment.
B. Its platform charges high fees for users in developing countries.
C. It cannot fully break down plastic waste quickly.
D. It may enlarge the research gap between different countries.
15. What is the best title for the passage?
A. The History of Protein Design in Labs B. AI: A New Power for Protein Design
C. Different Uses of Artificial Intelligence D. Risks Brought by AI Biotechnology

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。
Dan was lost. His wife knew it. His children didn’t, at least not yet. He tried to keep it from them as long as possible.
He thought he knew the way. He had led them off the trail for just a few minutes. Karen looked at him, her face pale. Now he sat on the same rock he had sat on an hour ago. Panic gripped his heart. He fought it down. Dan glanced at his watch. 2PM. Several hours until sunset, the air which was warm now would plunge (骤降) tonight. They had not prepared to spend the night on the mountain.
“What are we going to do?” Karen whispered. The children played at the edge of the water, careful not to get their feet wet. She had cautioned them about that.
Dan tried to smile at her. He gripped her hand. His hands were sweaty.
“Honey,” Dan said with more confidence than he felt. “We will make it through. If we have to, we will pile pine needles together and burrow down in them.”
“What about wild animals?” He saw tears in Karen’s eyes.
“Honey, everything will be OK. We might as well eat those candy bars you insisted we pack.”
Daron and Jun’s eyes lit up when they saw the candy bars. After devouring (狼吞虎咽地吃光), Dan came up with an idea to lift their spirits. He promised the kid who sang loudest without going off-key could pick five candy bars once they got back home.
“I’ll start!” Daron burst into a song, with June quickly joining him. The two competed to sing louder, barely staying in tune. When they finished, their voices echoed across the quiet woods.
Dan and Karen laughed warmly. “I can’t pick a winner,” Dan said.
“They were equally wonderful,” Karen smiled. “It’s a tie — you both get candy treats later!”
“Yeh.” Both children jumped up and down.
Suddenly, there was a rustling (沙沙声) in the woods. It seemed to come straight at them. Karen gathered the children, placing them behind her.
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。
Dan looked around and saw a large branch at his feet.

“I heard your singing echoing through the woods and tracked it here,” the ranger (护林员) said.
