The Sydney Opera House
The Sydney Opera House must be one of the most recognisable images of the modern world—up there with the Eiffel Tower and the Empire State Building.
Not only is it recognisable, but it has come to represent Australia.
Although only having been open since 1973, it is as representative(象征) of Australia as the pyramids are of Egypt and the Colosseum(大斗兽场) of Rome.
The Opera House is situated on Bennelong Point, which reaches out into the harbour. The skyline of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, the blue water of the harbour and the Sydney Opera House, viewed from a ferry or from the air, is dramatic
(激动人心的) and unforgettable.
Ironic, perhaps, that this Australian icon—the Opera House with a roof evocative(引起回忆的) of a ship in full sail was designed by famous Danish architect Jorn Utzon.
In the late 1950s the NSW(新南威尔士) Government established an appeal fund to finance the construction of the Sydney Opera House, and conducted a competition for its design.
Utzon’s design was chosen. Utzon spent a couple of years reworking the design and it was 1961 before he had solved the problem of how to build the distinguishing(有区别的) feature—the sails of the roof.

你的一个新西兰网友想向你了解一下中国的珍稀动物长江江豚(Yangtze Finless Porpoise)的情况,请你就此写一篇文章发给他/她共享。
答案:
One of six porpoise species, the finless porpoise lives in the coastal waters of Asia, especially around India, China, Indonesia and Japan. A freshwater population found in the Yangtze River in China is known locally as the Jiangtun or “Yangtze Finless Porpoise”. They have white or grey bodies. The smallest one is about 120 centimetres long while the largest
one is about 190 centimetres long. And their weights range from 100 kilogrammes to 220 kilogrammes. Yangtze Finless Porpoises have lived on the earth for 25 million years. They are called “living fossil” and “pandas in water” by Chinese people.
However, the number of Yangtze Finless Porpoises is becoming smaller and smaller,
only about 1,000 left. Most of them are dying out. It’s high time we took immediate measures to protect them.

藏羚羊(Tibetan antelope/chiru) 应该说是西藏的标志性动物,去过西藏的人往往对其留下了深刻的印象。请你根据以下要点提示,写一篇介绍藏羚羊的英语短文。
1. 藏羚羊也叫藏羚,原产于中国西藏地区。
2. 藏羚羊可高达4英尺。雄性有20~23英寸长的角,雌性没有角,它们的颜色为米黄色或浅灰或白色。
3. 藏羚羊的下层绒毛被认为是世界上最柔软、最暖和的毛。毛纤维直径达到9~12微米。
4. 藏羚羊的数量曾经达到大约1 000 000只,但到20世纪90年代下降到不足75 000只。因此,我们必须采取措施阻止非法捕猎。幸运的是,政府已设立保护区保护它们。相信它们一定会有一个美好的未来。
参考词汇:藏羚 chiru 米黄色 beige 下层绒毛 undercoat 微米 micron 直径 diameter 羚羊绒 shahtoosh 非法狩猎 poach
答案:
The Tibetan antelope is also called the chiru, which is native to the Tibetan region in China. Tibetan antelopes stand about four feet high and males have horns 20-23 inches long, while females are hornless. Their colours range from beige or light-grey to white.
The chiru’s undercoat is regarded as the softest, warmest wool in the world. The fibre measures 9-12 microns in diameter.
The number of Tibetan antelopes was once up to around 1 million. But by the 1990s it had been reduced to less than 75,000. Therefore we should take measures to prevent hunters from poaching for shahtoosh. Luckily, the government has set up special reserves to protect antelopes in Tibet. We believe the Tibetan antelope will have a bright future.Reading and Thinking (1)

Paper cutting is one of China’s most popular folk arts. Archaeological(考古学的) finds show that the tradition started in the 6th century; it is even supposed that the beginning of paper cutting is even a few centuries earlier.
Paper cuttings have special importance at festivals and on holidays. To get rid of the old and bring good luck, people put up paper cuttings on the windows on the Eve of the Spring Festival.
Paper cuttings are not produced by machine, but by hand. They are done all over China, but are different in the method in different areas. There are two kinds of paper cuttings: by using scissors or knives. As the name suggests, scissors cuttings are made with scissors. Several pieces of paper(up to eight pieces) are placed together. The patterns are then cut with pointed scissors. Knife cuttings are made by putting several pieces of paper on a table. Following a pattern, the artist cuts the patterns into the paper with a knife.
In the past, paper cuttings were usually made only by women and girls. They used scissors and paper to cut all kinds of pictures such as apple trees, peach blossoms, mice, fighting roosters and rabbits eating carrots.
This used to be one of the skills that every girl was to master. Professional paper cutting artists are, on the other hand, almost always men who can make a living by working together in workshops.
1. How long has paper cutting lasted at least
A. About 600 years.
B. About 1,500 years.

A. To make them look more beautiful.
B. To show others their excellent skills.
C. To bring them good luck in the new year.
D. To sell them on the Eve of the Spring Festival.
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“To get rid of the old and bring good luck, people put up paper cuttings on the windows on the Eve of the Spring Festival.”可知,人们把剪纸贴在窗户上,是为了辞旧迎新,带来好运。故选C。
答案:C
3. What does the third paragraph mainly tell us
A. Two kinds of paper cuttings.
B. Paper cuttings are made by hand.
C. Paper cuttings are made by machine.
D. The process of making paper cuttings.
解析:段落大意题。通读第三段可知,本段主要介绍了两种不同的剪纸方法:剪刀剪纸和刻刀剪纸。故选A。
答案:A
4. What are paper cuttings usually about
A. Family members of the artists.
B. Sports and social activities.
C. Fights between animals.
D. Things in our daily life.
解析:推理判断题。根据倒数第二段第二句“They used scissors and paper to cut all kinds of pictures such as apple trees, peach blossoms, mice, fighting roosters and rabbits eating carrots.”可知,剪纸的内容大多数是关于日常生活中的事物。故选D。
答案:D

The summer before my senior year of high school, I was eating in a cafeteria with some other high school students, and one girl asked me, “Do you live in a teepee(圆锥形帐篷) ” It was such a silly question that, at first, I thought she was joking! I said, “Are you serious ” She said, “Oh, wait, I’m sorry. Is that something I shouldn’t ask ” She wasn’t trying to be rude, so it didn’t bother me. I just said, “No, I have a house with electricity and running water. I’m not disconnected from the world!” But the truth is, I did grow up differently.
I’m a Native American, and I’m from a reservation in California. A reservation is a place that’s reserved for Native American tribes(部落) by the federal government.
People often have misconceptions about what living on a reservation means. In reality, though, my life probably looks a lot like yours. But there are ways that my life has been different. The reservation is an hour from town, and there’s a big connection to the land. Our house is surrounded by a mountain, a river, and a farm. We have 23 animals including 10 chickens. It’s not just for show! We collect eggs from the chickens, use manure(粪肥) from the animals to fertilise soil, and pick fruit and vegetables from our garden.
I’ve also learned how to hunt and fish. When hunting for deer, my tribe has two rules: ①Never shoot a female deer, because she might be pregnant; ②If you kill a deer, find a way to use all of it.
Going to college has been a big change for me. There were only 25 people in my graduating class, and now I go to school with thousands. On my reservation, I was surrounded mostly by Natives, and at college, the Native population is only 0.07%. It’s intimidating but also exciting.
I’m studying to become a vet—there aren’t any on my reservation. If an animal gets sick, we have to drive an hour to get them help. My goal is to open a veterinary clinic that will help my reservation develop.

答案:C
6. Life on the reservation where the author grew up is .
A. pretty hard

In 1978, I was 18 and was working as a nurse in a small town about 270 km away from Sydney, Australia. I was looking forward to having five days off from duty. Unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I’d hitch a ride(搭便车).
I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally, a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldn’t give me a lift, I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured(使……放心) me I was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches. After lunch, he helped me find a lift home.
Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day, I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat, trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favour I’d been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.
After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “You haven’t changed a bit. Even your red hair is still the same.” I couldn’t remember where I’d met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon.
9. Why did the author have to hitch a ride one day in 1978
A. Her work delayed her trip to Sydney.
B. She was going home for her holidays.
C. The town was far away from Sydney.
D. She missed the only train back home.

A. He helped the girl find a ride.
B. He gave the girl a ride back home.

11. Why did the author offer a lift to the elderly man
A. She realised he was Gordon.
B. She had known him for decades.
C. She was going to the nearby town.
D. She wanted to repay the favour she once got.
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段第二句“I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favour I’d been given decades earlier.”可推知,她让那位老人搭便车是想回报她以前所得到的帮助,不管他是谁。故选D。
答案:D
12. What does the author want to tell the readers through the story
A. Giving sometimes produces nice results.
B. Those who give rides will be repaid.

I picked up my two best friends and we were off on a road trip. I had just returned to America from a year abroad in China. So, naturally I wanted to take a trip: to Canada.
Montreal, the second largest city in Canada, is a four-hour drive from my home in New Hampshire. We felt a thrill as we crossed the border into Canada. It was the first time I had ever driven across an international border. We turned on the radio to try and find some Canadian stations.
After dropping off our bags at our hotel, we were immediately walking down the famous St. Catherine’s Street. While we walked, two things surprised us: how cold it was and how well everyone dressed. The streets of Montreal are like a fashion show. Both men and women look like they stepped out of the pages of a magazine.
All of that fashion has to keep them warm since Montreal is so cold. Last year it broke the record for the most snowfall in North America. To hide from the cold we went into a small diner because we wanted to order Poutine, a very popular snack in Montreal. It is French fries covered in cheese and brown gravy(肉汁). It is delicious.
However, we had a hard time ordering the dish since the official language of Montreal is French. It is actually the fifth largest French-speaking city in the world. But since the rest of Canada speak English, plenty of people were there to help.
We spent the rest of the weekend going to many historical sites and monuments in Montreal. But at night we’d head to the very modern dance clubs and bars. Montreal is a city that sits between the past and the future and the traveller can choose whichever direction he wants to go.
1. Which of the following can NOT be concluded from paragraphs 3-4
A. The author and his friends couldn’t wait to explore the city.
B. The author wasn’t used to the weather of Montreal.
C. The citizens from Montreal care much about what they wear.
D. Montreal often holds fashion shows.
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“After dropping off our bags at our hotel, we were immediately walking down the famous St. Catherine’s street.”可知,作者和他的朋友迫不及待地想参观蒙特利尔;根据第四段第三句 “To hide from the cold we went into a small diner ...”可推知作者和他朋友并不适应那里的寒冷;根据第三段最后两句可推知蒙特利尔人非常注重着装;D项文章没有提及。故选D。
答案:D
2. What can we infer from the passage
A. The author often went to China for a visit.
B. The people they met in the diner were kind and helpful.
C. All the people in the diner were locals.
D. The author went to Montreal on business.
解析:细节理解题。根据第五段最后一句“But since the rest of Canada speak English, plenty of people were there to help.”可知,作者和他朋友在餐馆碰到的人非常友好并且乐于助人。故选B。
答案:B
3. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A. The author listened to Canadian radio programmes and chose their first stop as advised.
B. The author took a trip to Montreal—the third largest city in Canada.
C. Montreal broke the record for the most snowfall in the world last year.
D. Montreal is a city which is both traditional and modern.
解析:细节理解题。根据最后一段末句“Montreal is a city that sits between the past and the future and the traveller can choose whichever direction he wants to go.”可知,蒙特利尔既有往昔的风采,也有现代的气息。故选D。
答案:D

Here are several great castles in Bavaria of Germany.
Veste Coburg
The Veste Coburg in Oberfranken is one of the most awesome(令人敬畏的) castles in Bavaria. It was built in the 11th century. Martin Luther actually lived here in the 1530s for six months. You will also find samples of great Bavarian woodwork here.
Burg zu Burghausen
The largest castle in Europe is right in Bavaria—Burg zu Burghausen. Built in the 13th century, the castle is over 3,300 feet long. A visit here will take you back to medieval(中世纪的) times and every castle hunter likes it.
Residenz in Munich
Munich has one of the finest German castles to be found in Bavaria. The Residenz, as it is known, was the home of the Wittelsbach family, and King Ludwig Ⅱ (1845-1886) of Bavaria spent a lot of time here as a child. The palace is a must-see on any trip to Bavaria.
Neues Schloss
In Wagner’s Bayreuth (the composer settles here in his later years), you can find Neues Schloss. Built in 1753 and 1754, the palace has beautiful woodwork. If you enjoy the Rococo style of architecture, you do not want to miss this castle.
King Ludwig Ⅱ’s Castles
There are three other castles in Bavaria that are known as “King Ludwig Ⅱ’s Castles”. They are Linderhof Palace, Schloss Herrenchiemsee and Schloss Neuschwanstein. These castles are masterpieces, even though two of the three were even never finished. King Ludwig built these awesome castles which inspire your imagination.

The Leaning Tower of Pisa no longer leans quite so much after a ￡20 million project to save it was hailed a complete success yesterday. The tower, which was on the verge of collapse, has been straightened by 18 inches returning it to its 1838 position.
The tower, which has been leaning almost since building work first began in 1173, was closed to the public in 1990 because of safety fears. The 183-foot tower was nearly 15 feet off vertical(垂直线) and its structure was found to have been weakened by centuries of strain.
The last attempt at straightening the tower was carried out under orders from Benito Mussolini,who wanted it to be perfectly vertical.
Concrete was poured into the foundations, but the result was that the tower sank further into the soil.
The straightening work involved the extraction of around 70 tons of earth from the northern side of the tower, causing it to sink on that side. Before the digging started, the tower was anchored with steel cables and 600 tons of lead weights.
However, halfway through the project, concerns at the ugliness of the weights led to their removal and the tower lurched(倾斜) dramatically. “In one night, the tower moved more than it had averaged in an entire year,” said Prof. Borland. The weights were hastily reattached.
The tower’s stonework has also been restored and tourists can clearly see the difference between its levels of limestone and marble.
“If we had not stepped in, the tower would have collapsed between 2030 and 2040,” said Salvatore Settees, the president of the rescue committee. “This is crucial for the tower’s stability and it was a totally Italian success.”
The Italian government stepped in after a tower collapsed in Pavia in 1989, killing four people.
24. Why was the tower closed to the public in 1990
A. It was destroyed.
B. It was moved.
C. It was in danger and also dangerous.
D. Every tower in Italy was closed then.
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“The tower, which has been leaning almost since building work first began in 1173, was closed to the public in 1990 because of safety fears.”可知,塔自从修建之初就开始倾斜,出于安全考量,官方决定对公众关闭。故选C。
答案:C
25. What does the underlined phrase “their removal” in paragraph 6 refer to
A. Removal of concerns.
B. Removal of the tower.
C. Removal of ugliness.
D. Removal of lead pieces.
解析:细节理解题。根据第五段和第六段可知,为保证塔不倒塌,在挖掘开始前,塔用钢丝绳和铅块固定,然而在工程进行到中途时,由于一些人对铅块的丑陋感到不满,铅块被撤掉,造成塔身突然发生倾斜。故选D。
答案:D
26. Which side of its foundation may the tower lean to according to the passage
A. South. B. West.
C. North. D. East.
解析:推理判断题。根据第五段中“The straightening work involved the extraction of around 70 tons of earth from the northern side of the tower, causing it to sink on that side.”可知,施工者要使塔向北边下沉,可见塔本身是向南倾斜的。故选A。
答案:A
27. Which of the following statements is TRUE
A. A 20 million project straightened the tower vertical.
B. The tower has been straightened where it was in 1838.
C. Concrete poured into the foundations worked in the straightening work.
D. The tower may collapse between 2030 and 2040.
解析:推理判断题。在第一段末句可以找到答案B(回归到了1838年时的位置);A错,此项工程并未“扶得笔直”;C错,第四段说人们将混凝土灌入塔基,却造成了斜塔的进一步下陷;D错,塔在2030-2040年间倒塌只是一种假设(倒数第二段第一句用了虚拟语气)。故选B。
答案:B
C
Meeting people from another culture can be difficult. From the beginning, people may send the wrong signal. Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship.
Different cultures emphasise(强调) the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree. For example, business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust. Even with people at work, it is necessary to spend a lot of time in “small talk”, usually over a glass of tea, before they do any job. In many European countries—like the UK or France—people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or cafés rather than at the office.
Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures. I once made a speech in Thailand. I had expected my speech to be a success and start a lively discussion; instead, there was an uncomfortable silence. The people present just stared at me and smiled. After getting to know their ways better, I realised that they thought I was talking too much. In my own culture, we express meaning mainly through words, but people there sometimes feel too many words are unnecessary.
Even within Northern Europe, cultural differences can cause serious problems. Certainly, English and German cultures share similar values; however, Germans prefer to get down to business more quickly. We think that they are rude. In fact, this is just because the culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly.
People from different parts of the world have different values, and sometimes these values are quite against each other. However, if we can understand them better, a multicultural environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other.
28. In some countries, eating together at restaurants may make it easier for people to .
A. develop closer relations
B. share the same culture
C. get to know each other
D. keep each other company
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“... people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or cafés rather than at the office.”可知,在餐馆吃饭或在咖啡厅喝咖啡比在办公室更容易建立永久的工作关系。故选A。
答案:A
29. What does the underlined word “multicultural” in the last paragraph mean
A. 本地的 B. 多元文化的
C. 彼此的 D. 单一的
解析:词义猜测题。根据末段首句“People from different parts of the world have different values ...”以及文章出现的“different cultures”可知,此处画线词的意思是“多元文化的”。故选B。
答案:B
30. According to the passage, how can people from different cultures understand each other better
A. By sharing different ways of life.
B. By accepting different habits.
C. By recognising different values.
D. By speaking each other’s languages.
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中“However, if we can understand them better, a multicultural environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other.”可知,互相认可彼此的价值观才能互相理解。故选C。
答案:C
31. What would be the best title for the passage
A. Multicultural Environment
B. Cross-Cultural Differences
C. How to Understand Each Other
D. How to Build Up a Relationship
解析:主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了不同文化之间的差异,并说明了要加强理解和认识。Cross-Cultural Differences做标题比较合适。故选B。
答案:B
D
Australia has become one of the most attractive countries for tourism in the world and the reasons are simple: For a long time traditional tourist destinations such as Europe, the USA, England, and many others, used to attract tourists for their history, architecture, shopping, beauty, beaches and development. Meanwhile Australia was considered too far and expensive to go, except for Asian residents. With the world changing significantly, few places are left untouched today.
Travelling in Australia is easy, safe, and Australia is full of fantastic places to visit. As a developed country, Australia offers what is necessary for any travellers. If you just want to visit cities and go shopping, you will have cities with the best quality of life in the world. If you want to go for sports and have plenty of fun, you will have a ball over here. The adventures, the comfort, the fun, are just waiting for you. If you have a very limited time, we suggest you have a look at our page where we present some suggestions for what can be done in just a few days’ trip.
Three months wouldn’t be enough to know Australia very well. The country is so big that even today there are lands never foot-stepped yet. Of course most can’t see the whole country at once. The best way to do it is to make a plan for cities, landscapes, national parks, small towns and cultural places. Otherwise you may spend hours and hours on a road without any attractions instead of doing the same trajectory(轨迹) by plane saving time and money.
As is said above, travelling in Australia is very easy, and you don’t need to worry too much about reservations except in the holiday periods and during some school breaks when you may find fewer options, or if you are going to do some parts by plane. Accommodation of all levels and prices is also plentiful, and depends on the place you go.
32. What is the author’s purpose of writing this passage
A. To show travelling in Australia is easy and safe.
B. To show Australia is the best country.
C. To share his travelling experience.
D. To introduce the tourism of Australia.

A. because they take an interest in the wonderful architecture
B. because they perhaps like adventure and excitement

答案:B
34. While travelling in Australia you will find .

阅读下面短文,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。
Tips on Finding Inspiration after Failure
The good thing about failure is that it is actually not the end. 36.
Accept your weaknesses. Every human being has weaknesses. The first thing you need to do after failing is to accept that it has happened to you because failure happens to human beings. Accepting this helps you to accept that this is not a reflection of your life as a whole. 37.
See the lesson. The biggest thing you can take from failure is the lesson it has taught you. 38. If there are any weaknesses you need to address, you will only be able to see them after doing this soul searching. There are many lessons I would never have learned if I had not failed.
39. You will find inspiration if you accept that the pain you get from failure helps you to grow. There are certain things you will not understand until you have had a chance to live with them. For example, you would not know what it feels like to lose a job unless you had lost one before. 40. That is the essence of life.
Failure should never be considered as something permanent. It should never be seen as the end, but rather the beginning of a new way of looking at life.
A. Pain helps you grow.
B. Accept that everyone fails.
C. It is just a temporary setback(挫折).
D. This gives you a chance to examine your life.
E. You can use the following tips to find inspiration after failure.
F. When you stop the blame game and take responsibility, you are growing.
G. We only learn the feeling of losing a loved one after we have lost a loved one.
36. 解析:上文讲了失败并不是结束,下文讲失败后你应该怎么做,所以此处需要填一个过渡句。故选E。
答案:E
37. 解析:根据上文的“Accepting this helps you to accept that this is not a reflection of your life as a whole.”可知,承认这一点会帮助你接受这不是你整个生活的反映。此处承接上文说的是“它仅仅是一个暂时的挫折”。故选C。
答案:C
38. 解析:结合本段的主题句“See the lesson.”可知,D项“这给了你审视你生活的机会”符合语境。故选D。
答案:D
39. 解析:根据下文的“... if you accept that the pain you get from failure helps you to grow.”可知,本段主要介绍了痛苦能帮助你成长。故选A。
答案:A
40. 解析:根据上文的“For example, you would not know what it feels like to lose a job unless you had lost one before.”可知,此处是在举例阐明上述观点“There are certain things you will not understand until you have had a chance to live with them.”而G项也是一个例子,与上文意义一致。故选G。
答案:G

I will never forget the year I was about twelve years old. My mother told us that we would not be 41 Christmas gifts because there was not enough money.

For me they brought a doll. I felt such a sense of 44 that I would no longer have to be embarrassed when I returned to school. I wasn’t forgotten. Somebody had thought 45 of me to bring me a gift.
Years later, when I stood in the kitchen of my new house, thinking how I wanted to make my first Christmas there special and memorable, I 46 remembered the women’s visit. I decided that I wanted to create that same feeling of 47 for as many children as I could possibly reach.
So I 48 a plan and gathered forty people from my company to help. We gathered about 125 orphans(孤儿) at the Christmas party. For every child, we wrapped colourful packages filled with toys, clothes, and school supplies, 49 with a child’s name. We wanted all of them to know they were 50 . Before I called out their names and handed them their gifts, I 51 them that they couldn’t open their presents until every child had come forward. Finally the 52 they had been waiting for came as I called out, “One, two, three. Open your presents!” As the children opened their packages, their faces beamed and their bright smiles 53 up the room. The joy in the room was obvious, and 54 wasn’t just about toys. It was a feeling—the feeling I knew 55 that Christmas so long ago when the women came to visit. I wasn’t forgotten.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
A mother is a person who, seeing there are only four pieces of pie for five people, promptly announces she never did care for pie.
—Tenneva Jordan
I knew I was not supposed to be so excited. I was too old for that. At age eleven, the oldest and my mum’s “grown-up” girl, I had to keep my cool. I was in middle school after all. But every chance I got, when I was alone, I checked each present under the tree. I read every tag and felt every package, guessing at the contents within. I had examined each gift so often that I could tell which present went to which person without even looking at the tags.
It had been a tough year for my family. Whenever my mum looked over at the tree and scattered (撒) presents, she would sigh and warn us, “There won’t be as much for Christmas this year. Try not to be disappointed.” Christmas had traditionally been a time for my parents to spoil us. In years past, the presents would pile up and spill out from under the tree, taking over the living room. I had heard the phrase “giving is better than receiving”, but thought that whoever had said that must have been out of their mind. Getting presents was the whole point! It was the reason I couldn’t get to sleep on Christmas Eve.
On Christmas morning, we eagerly waited in the hallway until dad told us everything was ready. We rushed into the living room and let the wrapping paper fly. We made weak attempts to wait and watch while other family members opened their presents, but as the time passed we lost our self-control.
“Here’s another one for you,” said mum as she handed me a package. I looked at it, confused. Having spent so much time examining the presents before Christmas, I recognised this one. But it had not been mine. It was my mum’s. A new label had been put on it, with my name written in my mother’s handwriting.
“Mum, I can’t ...”
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150左右;
(2)请按如下格式作答。
I was stopped by my mother’s eager, joyful look.
I have always remembered that Christmas fondly.
答案:
I was stopped by my mother’s eager, joyful look. “Let’s see what it is, honey. Hurry and open it.” It was a blow-dryer. Though this may seem but a simple gift, to me it was so much more. Being an eleven-year-old girl, I was stunned. In my world, where receiving outweighed giving by light years, my mum’s act of selflessness was incomprehensible. It was a huge act. Tears filled my eyes and I thought in disbelief about how much my mum must love me to give up her Christmas so I could have a few more presents.
I have always remembered that Christmas fondly. It had such an impact on me. As an adult with children in my life whom I adore, I can now understand my mum’s actions. I see actually, she was not “giving up her Christmas” as I had thought, but was finding an even greater joy in her Christmas because giving truly is better than receiving. My mum’s simple act meant the world to me. Whenever I look back on my mum’s giving, I will choose to give in my life.

几维鸟因叫声“kiwi”得名,被新西兰人看作自己民族的象征,并且定为国鸟。它既没有翅膀也没有尾羽,不能飞翔。可是它的双腿却粗短有力,善于奔跑,时速可达16千米,发起脾气来还
能将另一只同类鸟踢出1.5米外。几维鸟以吃昆虫、蚯蚓、浆果、叶子等为生,白天躲在地洞或树根洞内,晚上才出来觅食。雌性几维鸟一般一两年才下一次蛋,每次一两枚。虽然它的个头与普通母鸡差不多,但下的蛋比鸡蛋大五倍,相当于自身体重的1/3或1/4。如以鸟的体重和鸟蛋的比例而论,几维鸟蛋恐怕是世界所有鸟类中最大的蛋。Section Ⅴ Assessing Your Progress & Video Time

Pingyao, in the centre of Shanxi Province, is a famous historic cultural city of China and a world cultural heritage site. It’s 90 kilometres south of Taiyuan on the Fen River.
People lived in Pingyao during the New Stone Age. Its long period as the seat of a county government has left Pingyao with lots of historic buildings and sites, with a 2,700-year history. Ninety-nine of them are under government protection, including Zhengguo Temple, Shuanglin Temple and Ancient City of Pingyao.
During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, businessmen organised commercial(商业的) groups that did business nationwide. Shanxi Province had some of the most important ones and Pingyao was their centre. In 1823, a store, known as Rishengchang (Sunrise Prosperity), traded in bank cheques rather than in silver or gold coins. It was the beginning of modern Chinese banking. Branches(分行) were soon set up in major cities in China and other parts of Asia, leading to great development in Pingyao. Its lacquerware(漆器) became well known.
In Pingyao Ancient City are many traditional houses and commercial buildings, 3,797 of which are protected and more than 400 of which are in good condition. Not only do the houses in Pingyao show Shanxi’s history and culture, but they are also valuable to the study of its history, customs, ancient buildings and art. Most of these houses are still used as homes and shops of local people.
In 1997, Pingyao Ancient City was listed in the World Heritage List as a “World Cultural Heritage Site”.
