As with many children, books first drew me in through their illustrations. My love of colour was stimulated by the original Babar books; my understanding of lines comes from the Our Wullie annuals, or Tintin. Later, the words became more important to me. I was not happy at boarding school, but I loved spending time in its library. Books became my private garden. So it was no surprise that I studied English at university. Today “English literature” is in sharp decline among senior-level exam subjects and some universities are ceasing to offer it. This is a quiet cultural disaster, one in which we are stealing their best future from our children. It may not lead directly to a good-paying office job. But it has given people like me a reliable friend. Later, work and family made it harder for me to read. As a journalist, I had many deadlines, and as a mother, I often had little time because of children and money worries. Sometimes I read while standing on a moving bus or train. It was difficult, but I kept reading. Every year, I still looked forward to new books by Ian McEwan and many other writers, such as Penelope Fitzgerald and Donna Tartt. Each book gave me a new world to explore and a new friend to meet. At this point, readers may ask whether I would have been better off living — meeting and talking to fleshy actual humans or playing sports. Well, I don’t spend all my life on a sofa with books all around me. There seems to be time for chat and laughter. But without deep and repeated reading of writers who millions of other people have already found friendly and helpful, my life would just be so much narrower and meaner. The great books remain, across most of a lifetime, my secret garden. 4. What first attracted the author to books as a child? A. The plots. B. The titles. C. The pictures. D. The reviews. 5. What does the author think of “English literature”? A. Spiritually comforting. B. Academically difficult. C. Economically rewarding. D. Practically advantageous. 6. What does paragraph 4 mainly tell us about the author? A. Her busy life. B. Her favorite writers. C. Her reading on trips. D. Her insistence on reading. 7. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph? A. Analyze a current trend. B. Defend her point of view. C. Show readers’ misunderstanding of books. D. Prove the importance of real-life activities. C Want to lose fat? There’s one method scientifically proven to work: eating a little less food than your body needs to fuel itself each day. Do that, and your body starts using its energy reserves — its stored fat — to make up the deficit. It sounds straightforward. You dutifully keep track of the calories in every meal to make sure your daily intake stays less than your fixed limit, but the number on your weight scale never changes at all. It’s frustrating and disheartening. But there’s good news: you’re not to blame. Recent scientific findings suggest it’s almost impossible to count calories with any degree of accuracy, which explains why trying to lose weight by calorie counting is so hard. It’s not bad maths that trips most of us up, though. Generally, unless you diligently log every ingredient before you eat, humans just aren’t very good at recalling exactly what was on their plate, let alone the handful of snacks they ate without thinking. Given all that, it’s no surprise that studies suggest the average person underestimates their daily consumption by around 30 per cent (roughly 600-750 calories), or about 10 digestive biscuits. The very idea of working out calorie amounts is problematic. And that’s before we even consider the effect your individual biology can have. For instance, a 2023 study tested the outcomes of giving people a high-fibre diet, designed to feed their gut microbes (肠道菌群). With growing microbial communities in their guts, the scientists found that the participants in the study lost a little bit of weight — without eating less or feeling hungry — because they were absorbing fewer calories from their food. “That means, depending on what you eat and how many microbes are thriving (旺盛繁殖) in your gut, some calories are used by you, while others feed the microbes.” says Professor Rosa Brown, a co-author of the study. If all this is starting to make you think that calorie monitoring might be off the menu, you’d be right. 8. What does the underlined word “deficit” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Database. B. Shortfall. C. Nutrition. D. Weight. 9. What makes it hard for dieters to count calories? A. Inaccuracy of intake records. B. Lack of tracking approaches. C. Absence of scientific evidence. D. Complexity of calculation procedures. 10. What can we learn from the 2023 study? A. Calorie absorption may vary. B. Eating less means losing weight. C. Fibre reduces people’s hunger. D. Food calories determine body weight. 11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Forget the Strict Diet B. Simplify Your Calorie Log C. Skip the Dietary Math D. Adjust Your Diet Structure D Food markets have experienced considerable instability in recent years. Global warming is causing droughts, soil desertification and extreme weather. Yet the fundamentals of food production were last transformed in the mid-20th century. Fortunately, global investments in agricultural innovation are on the rise. Funds for agritech companies reached $16.2 billion in 2025. Of this, $9 billion went to new research into boosting farm yields, up from $2.5 billion in 2016. The focus of sustainability efforts is switching from preventing climate change to dealing with it and finding solutions. Scientists are developing alternatives to the pesticides and fertilisers that have dominated modern agriculture since the Green Revolution of the mid-20th century, based on a better understanding of plants themselves. B-COS, a team from Ghent University, is genetically engineering bacteria to produce a special kind of molecule (分子). Tomato and potato plants sprayed (喷洒) with the molecules are tricked into believing they are under attack and activate their natural defenses against infection. B-COS is applying this approach to two new products: one to improve growth and drought tolerance, and another which it claims can reduce disease incidence by 40-50%. Naturally, there are also companies exploring the opportunities presented by artificial intelligence. The general idea of this combination is called “precision agriculture”, which is to help farmers connect everything from the environmental conditions of individual fields to the genetic sequences (序列) of the bacteria present in the soil, and those of the plants themselves. This is then run through AI models that make predictions about the best conditions and treatments to achieve the highest yields or produce the highest-quality crops. “It is going to show us what’s going on in each square metre of the fields, such as temperature, water and carbon absorption,” says Mr. Anders, a managing partner of an agritech company. There is still a long way to go. In 2024, agricultural tech companies attracted just 1.3% of global early-stage venture-capital funding despite agriculture accounting for about 4% of global GDP. But if high-tech innovations still make their way, and the funds keep flowing, a new age of precision agriculture is coming. 12. What is highlighted concerning agricultural investment in paragraph 1? A. Its instability. B. Its source. C. Its influence. D. Its shift. 13. Why did the B-COS team spray the molecules on tomato and potato plants? A. To evaluate disease tolerance. B. To eliminate harmful substances. C. To boost natural resistance. D. To protect healthy plants. 14. What does “precision agriculture” contribute to? A. Accurate market forecasting. B. Efficient harvesting techniques. C. Sufficient genetic information. D. Reasonable agricultural planning. 15. What is the author’s purpose in presenting the data in the last paragraph? A. To call for greater investment. B. To warn of potential risks. C. To cast light on the achievements. D. To give credit to the companies. 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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The work is piling up, pressure is mounting, and deadlines are approaching. How can we still get useful results if we need to make quick judgments and fast decisions? ____16____ Here’s how we can upgrade our minds. Firstly, challenge your key assumptions. Based on past experience, our mind constantly makes assumptions about the world. However, what saves us time and energy can lead to wrong conclusions if they remain unchallenged. Start by working in a team and questioning each other’s assumptions. ____17____ You should also consider alternative explanations. Humans seek explanations, and we prefer the one that comes to mind first. ____18____ It pays to naturally look beyond the most obvious explanations. This is to avoid confirmation bias; when we ignore evidence that goes against a prior belief. A master thinker treats their preferred explanation just as an assumption. ____19____ They simply refer to the main factors influencing how things have been going or how they will go. If we practice watching for driving factors when we have time to think, we’ll be able to identify them more instinctively on occasions when we’re in a hurry. The master thinker prioritizes the factors that impact an issue the most. Finally, consider the overall context. The master thinker considers the circumstances and conditions of an issue. ____20____ A few minutes to orient ourselves and reflect on the situation as a whole can once more save us time down the road. Only then is it time to consider the details and incorporate them back into said picture. A. Moreover, try to focus on key drivers. B. Attempt to think about problems wisely. C. However, that isn’t necessarily the correct one. D. This habit involves looking at the big picture first. E. True expert thinkers know the limitations of their minds. F. This collaborative approach enables your thinking to be challenged. G. Actually, the habits of master thinkers can help in reasoning and making decisions. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 When I first went river rafting (漂流) with my family, I was only 12 years old.

Over the rapid currents, my brother learned to pull his weight in rowing, while I learned to read the river and ____23____ hitting the rocks.

Just like my own trip years ago, our tour guide taught him the fundamentals of the ____26____. He showed my son the ____27____ of leaning into the rapids — a lesson that I hoped would encourage him to ____28____ all of life’s challenges. At first, ____29____ made him shake, yet he gradually calmed down and ____30____ navigated (驾船) the rough rapids without my help. The rafting trip taught my son how to stay ____31____ instead of being distracted, and how facing hardships directly is better than ____32____ halfway. Watching him overcome his inner fight ____33____ me of the young 12-year-old version of myself on that long-ago trip. I hope my son learns that, though the waters may be ____34____ and unexpected challenges may come about on the way, with ____35____ and courage, he can navigate them with strength and ease. 21. A. tiring B. enjoyable C. frightening D. ordinary 22. A. crossed B. discovered C. reached D. approached 23. A. imagine B. ignore C. risk D. avoid 24. A. forgive B. persuade C. judge D. trust 25.

Our mother Clare was the heart of our family. She was the type of mom who always put our needs first, sacrificing her own desires for our happiness. Growing up, we established a beautiful tradition that each year, we would surprise her with a special gift to show our gratitude and love. This year, Oscar came up with a brilliant idea: “What if we made her a long and beautiful dress?” she exclaimed, her voice filled with excitement. As I recalled, since the day we were born, Mom hadn’t bought herself a beautiful new dress, so I knew we had to make this year’s surprise truly special. With that thought in mind, we set to work. I grabbed my drawing book and began to design, my pencil dancing across the page; while Oscar with her perfect sense of measurement and love for sewing. she got down to handling the cloth. Her eyes shone with concentration, while I focused on the beautiful patterns on the dress. Soon, the dress began to take shape — it was such a magnificent long dress, and we carefully wrapped it in gift paper. But then came the question: where to hide it for the surprise to be revealed at dinner? We put our heads together, brainstorming the perfect hiding spot. “Nobody would think to look in my bedroom closet.” I suggested Oscar giggled, nodding in agreement, but we both neglected the fact that our two playful cats could be a problem. Finally, the moment arrived. After dessert, I exchanged a knowing look with Oscar. It was time to unveil our creation!

But without deep and repeated reading of writers who millions of other people have already found friendly and helpful, my life would just be so much narrower and meaner. The great books remain, across most of a lifetime, my secret garden. 4. What first attracted the author to books as a child? A. The plots. B. The titles. C. The pictures. D. The reviews. 5. What does the author think of “English literature”? A. Spiritually comforting. B. Academically difficult. C. Economically rewarding. D. Practically advantageous. 6. What does paragraph 4 mainly tell us about the author? A. Her busy life. B. Her favorite writers. C. Her reading on trips. D. Her insistence on reading. 7. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph? A. Analyze a current trend. B. Defend her point of view. C. Show readers’ misunderstanding of books. D. Prove the importance of real-life activities. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述书籍是作者心灵的秘密花园，以及文学阅读带给她的精神滋养。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“As with many children, books first drew me in through their illustrations.(和许多孩子一样，书籍最初是通过插图吸引我的。)” 可知，小时候最先吸引作者读书的是书中的图画。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“It may not lead directly to a good-paying office job. But it has given people like me a reliable friend.(它或许不能直接带来高薪办公室工作，但它给像我这样的人提供了一位可靠的朋友。)” 可知，作者认为英国文学能够带来精神上的慰藉。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段中的“Later, work and family made it harder for me to read. As a journalist, I had many deadlines, and as a mother, I often had little time because of children and money worries. Sometimes I read while standing on a moving bus or train. It was difficult, but I kept reading.(后来，工作和家庭让我很难读书。身为记者，我有很多截稿日期；作为母亲，孩子和经济压力常常让我时间紧张。有时我在行驶的公交车或火车上站着阅读。虽然艰难，但我坚持读书。)” 可知，本段主要介绍尽管生活忙碌，作者依然坚持阅读。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“Well, I don’t spend all my life on a sofa with books all around me. There seems to be time for chat and laughter. But without deep and repeated reading of writers who millions of other people have already found friendly and helpful, my life would just be so much narrower and meaner.(其实我并没有一辈子都待在身边堆满书的沙发上，我也好像有时间聊天欢笑。但如果没有深度反复品读那些已被数百万人认为友善且有助益的作家作品，我的人生只会变得更加狭隘贫瘠。)” 可知，作者针对读者可能存在的质疑进行解释，捍卫自己热爱阅读的观点。 C Want to lose fat? There’s one method scientifically proven to work: eating a little less food than your body needs to fuel itself each day. Do that, and your body starts using its energy reserves — its stored fat — to make up the deficit. It sounds straightforward. You dutifully keep track of the calories in every meal to make sure your daily intake stays less than your fixed limit, but the number on your weight scale never changes at all. It’s frustrating and disheartening. But there’s good news: you’re not to blame. Recent scientific findings suggest it’s almost impossible to count calories with any degree of accuracy, which explains why trying to lose weight by calorie counting is so hard. It’s not bad maths that trips most of us up, though. Generally, unless you diligently log every ingredient before you eat, humans just aren’t very good at recalling exactly what was on their plate, let alone the handful of snacks they ate without thinking. Given all that, it’s no surprise that studies suggest the average person underestimates their daily consumption by around 30 per cent (roughly 600-750 calories), or about 10 digestive biscuits. The very idea of working out calorie amounts is problematic. And that’s before we even consider the effect your individual biology can have. For instance, a 2023 study tested the outcomes of giving people a high-fibre diet, designed to feed their gut microbes (肠道菌群). With growing microbial communities in their guts, the scientists found that the participants in the study lost a little bit of weight — without eating less or feeling hungry — because they were absorbing fewer calories from their food. “That means, depending on what you eat and how many microbes are thriving (旺盛繁殖) in your gut, some calories are used by you, while others feed the microbes.” says Professor Rosa Brown, a co-author of the study. If all this is starting to make you think that calorie monitoring might be off the menu, you’d be right. 8. What does the underlined word “deficit” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Database. B. Shortfall. C. Nutrition. D. Weight. 9. What makes it hard for dieters to count calories? A. Inaccuracy of intake records. B. Lack of tracking approaches. C. Absence of scientific evidence. D. Complexity of calculation procedures. 10. What can we learn from the 2023 study? A. Calorie absorption may vary. B. Eating less means losing weight. C. Fibre reduces people’s hunger. D. Food calories determine body weight. 11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Forget the Strict Diet B. Simplify Your Calorie Log C. Skip the Dietary Math D. Adjust Your Diet Structure 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了通过计算卡路里来减肥的方法之所以困难重重，是因为人类难以准确记录饮食摄入，且个体生物学差异（如肠道菌群）会影响卡路里的吸收，因此卡路里监测可能并不可行。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段“eating a little less food than your body needs to fuel itself each day. Do that, and your body starts using its energy reserves — its stored fat — to make up the … (每天摄入比身体所需略少的食物。这样做，你的身体就会开始使用其能量储备——储存的脂肪——来弥补……。)”可知，前文提到了(每天摄入比身体所需略少的食物，还提到了你的身体就会开始使用其能量储备，可推理出划线词的含义为“不足”，与B项“Shortfall(不足，短缺)”意思相近。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Recent scientific findings suggest it’s almost impossible to count calories with any degree of accuracy, which explains why trying to lose weight by calorie counting is so hard. It’s not bad maths that trips most of us up, though. Generally, unless you diligently log every ingredient before you eat, humans just aren’t very good at recalling exactly what was on their plate, let alone the handful of snacks they ate without thinking. (近期的科学研究表明，想要精准计算卡路里几乎是不可能的，这也解释了为什么靠计算卡路里减肥如此困难。不过，困扰大多数人的并不是计算失误。一般来说，除非你在进食前认真记录每一样食材，否则人们很难准确回忆起自己盘中究竟吃了什么，更不用说那些不知不觉吃下的少量零食。)”以及“studies suggest the average person underestimates their daily consumption by around 30 per cent (研究表明普通人每天低估约30%的摄入量)”可知，让节食者难以计算卡路里的原因是摄入记录的不准确。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“With growing microbial communities in their guts, the scientists found that the participants in the study lost a little bit of weight — without eating less or feeling hungry — because they were absorbing fewer calories from their food. (随着肠道微生物群落的生长，研究人员发现参与者在没有少吃、也没有感到饥饿的情况下减了一点重，因为他们从食物中吸收的卡路里变少了。)”以及第五段“depending on what you eat and how many microbes are thriving in your gut, some calories are used by you, while others feed the microbes. (取决于你吃什么以及肠道中有多少微生物在旺盛繁殖，有些卡路里被你吸收，有些则喂养了微生物。)”可知，卡路里的吸收因人而异（受肠道菌群影响）。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“It sounds straightforward. You dutifully keep track of the calories in every meal to make sure your daily intake stays less than your fixed limit, but the number on your weight scale never changes at all. It’s frustrating and disheartening. But there’s good news: you’re not to blame. (这听起来简单明了。你认真记录每一餐的卡路里，确保每日摄入量低于设定的上限，可是体重秤上的数字却丝毫不变。这让人倍感沮丧、灰心丧气。不过有个好消息：这并不是你的问题。)”以及最后一段“If all this is starting to make you think that calorie monitoring might be off the menu, you’d be right. (如果这一切让你觉得卡路里监测可能行不通，你是对的。)”可知，本文说的是通过卡路里赤字减肥法却不见效的挫败感，原因是人类回忆饮食不准确，并通过研究证明卡路里吸收受生物学因素影响，末段劝读者别再纠结于卡路里的数字计算，C项“Skip the Dietary Math (跳过饮食数学计算)”最契合主旨。 D Food markets have experienced considerable instability in recent years. Global warming is causing droughts, soil desertification and extreme weather. Yet the fundamentals of food production were last transformed in the mid-20th century. Fortunately, global investments in agricultural innovation are on the rise. Funds for agritech companies reached $16.2 billion in 2025. Of this, $9 billion went to new research into boosting farm yields, up from $2.5 billion in 2016. The focus of sustainability efforts is switching from preventing climate change to dealing with it and finding solutions. Scientists are developing alternatives to the pesticides and fertilisers that have dominated modern agriculture since the Green Revolution of the mid-20th century, based on a better understanding of plants themselves. B-COS, a team from Ghent University, is genetically engineering bacteria to produce a special kind of molecule (分子). Tomato and potato plants sprayed (喷洒) with the molecules are tricked into believing they are under attack and activate their natural defenses against infection. B-COS is applying this approach to two new products: one to improve growth and drought tolerance, and another which it claims can reduce disease incidence by 40-50%. Naturally, there are also companies exploring the opportunities presented by artificial intelligence. The general idea of this combination is called “precision agriculture”, which is to help farmers connect everything from the environmental conditions of individual fields to the genetic sequences (序列) of the bacteria present in the soil, and those of the plants themselves. This is then run through AI models that make predictions about the best conditions and treatments to achieve the highest yields or produce the highest-quality crops. “It is going to show us what’s going on in each square metre of the fields, such as temperature, water and carbon absorption,” says Mr. Anders, a managing partner of an agritech company. There is still a long way to go. In 2024, agricultural tech companies attracted just 1.3% of global early-stage venture-capital funding despite agriculture accounting for about 4% of global GDP. But if high-tech innovations still make their way, and the funds keep flowing, a new age of precision agriculture is coming. 12. What is highlighted concerning agricultural investment in paragraph 1? A. Its instability. B. Its source. C. Its influence. D. Its shift. 13. Why did the B-COS team spray the molecules on tomato and potato plants? A. To evaluate disease tolerance. B. To eliminate harmful substances. C. To boost natural resistance. D. To protect healthy plants. 14. What does “precision agriculture” contribute to? A. Accurate market forecasting. B. Efficient harvesting techniques. C. Sufficient genetic information. D. Reasonable agricultural planning. 15. What is the author’s purpose in presenting the data in the last paragraph? A. To call for greater investment. B. To warn of potential risks. C. To cast light on the achievements. D. To give credit to the companies. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了全球农业创新投资不断增加，科学家正利用基因工程细菌和人工智能等新技术推动精准农业发展，以应对气候变化和粮食生产挑战。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The focus of sustainability efforts is switching from preventing climate change to dealing with it and finding solutions.(可持续发展努力的重点正在从防止气候变化转向应对气候变化并寻找解决方案。)”可知，农业投资的重点正在发生转变，从防止气候变化转向应对和解决气候变化问题。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Tomato and potato plants sprayed with the molecules are tricked into believing they are under attack and activate their natural defenses against infection.(喷洒了这种分子的番茄和马铃薯植株会被欺骗，以为自己正受到攻击，从而激活其抵御感染的自然防御。)”可知，B-COS团队给番茄和马铃薯植株喷洒分子是为了激活植物的自然防御，增强其自然抵抗力。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“This is then run through AI models that make predictions about the best conditions and treatments to achieve the highest yields or produce the highest-quality crops.(然后，这些数据会通过人工智能模型运行，预测实现最高产量或生产最高质量作物的最佳条件和处理方法。)”可知，精准农业有助于做出合理的农业规划。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“In 2024, agricultural tech companies attracted just 1.3% of global early-stage venture-capital funding despite agriculture accounting for about 4% of global GDP. But if high-tech innovations still make their way, and the funds keep flowing, a new age of precision agriculture is coming.(2024年，农业科技公司仅吸引了全球早期风险投资的1.3%，尽管农业约占全球GDP的4%。但如果高科技创新继续推进，资金持续流入，精准农业的新时代即将到来。)”可知，作者呈现这些数据是为了说明农业科技投资仍然不足，呼吁更多投资。 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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The work is piling up, pressure is mounting, and deadlines are approaching. How can we still get useful results if we need to make quick judgments and fast decisions? ____16____ Here’s how we can upgrade our minds. Firstly, challenge your key assumptions. Based on past experience, our mind constantly makes assumptions about the world. However, what saves us time and energy can lead to wrong conclusions if they remain unchallenged. Start by working in a team and questioning each other’s assumptions. ____17____ You should also consider alternative explanations. Humans seek explanations, and we prefer the one that comes to mind first. ____18____ It pays to naturally look beyond the most obvious explanations. This is to avoid confirmation bias; when we ignore evidence that goes against a prior belief. A master thinker treats their preferred explanation just as an assumption. ____19____ They simply refer to the main factors influencing how things have been going or how they will go. If we practice watching for driving factors when we have time to think, we’ll be able to identify them more instinctively on occasions when we’re in a hurry. The master thinker prioritizes the factors that impact an issue the most. Finally, consider the overall context. The master thinker considers the circumstances and conditions of an issue. ____20____ A few minutes to orient ourselves and reflect on the situation as a whole can once more save us time down the road. Only then is it time to consider the details and incorporate them back into said picture. A. Moreover, try to focus on key drivers. B. Attempt to think about problems wisely. C. However, that isn’t necessarily the correct one. D. This habit involves looking at the big picture first. E. True expert thinkers know the limitations of their minds. F. This collaborative approach enables your thinking to be challenged. G. Actually, the habits of master thinkers can help in reasoning and making decisions. 【答案】16. G 17. F 18. C 19. A 20.

Our mother Clare was the heart of our family. She was the type of mom who always put our needs first, sacrificing her own desires for our happiness. Growing up, we established a beautiful tradition that each year, we would surprise her with a special gift to show our gratitude and love. This year, Oscar came up with a brilliant idea: “What if we made her a long and beautiful dress?” she exclaimed, her voice filled with excitement. As I recalled, since the day we were born, Mom hadn’t bought herself a beautiful new dress, so I knew we had to make this year’s surprise truly special. With that thought in mind, we set to work. I grabbed my drawing book and began to design, my pencil dancing across the page; while Oscar with her perfect sense of measurement and love for sewing. she got down to handling the cloth. Her eyes shone with concentration, while I focused on the beautiful patterns on the dress. Soon, the dress began to take shape — it was such a magnificent long dress, and we carefully wrapped it in gift paper. But then came the question: where to hide it for the surprise to be revealed at dinner? We put our heads together, brainstorming the perfect hiding spot. “Nobody would think to look in my bedroom closet.” I suggested Oscar giggled, nodding in agreement, but we both neglected the fact that our two playful cats could be a problem. Finally, the moment arrived. After dessert, I exchanged a knowing look with Oscar. It was time to unveil our creation! We dashed to our bedroom together, my heart pounding in my chest as I flung open the closet door. 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。 “NO” I yelled, seeing our cats dashed out of the closet. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “Where did you get such a beautiful scarf?” Mom asked. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 “NO!” I yelled, seeing our cats dashed out of the closet. My eyes widened in horror as I saw the gift-wrapped dress on the floor, torn and tattered. Oscar’s face paled as we both stared at the ruined surprise. Tears welled up in my eyes. How could this have happened? But there was no time to wallow in disappointment. We had to think fast. “Where did you get such a beautiful scarf?” Mom asked. I looked at Oscar, panic-stricken. Then, on the spur of the moment, I grabbed the torn pieces of fabric and held them up. “Mom, this was supposed to be a dress for you. We made it with all our love. But the cats got to it.” Mom’s eyes filled with emotion. She took the pieces from me and hugged us both. “This is the most beautiful ‘scarf’ I’ve ever seen.
