How we garden
Some of us are challenged when it comes to gardening. We sometimes worry too much about what other people think about our gardens. The most important thing to remember when you’re creating your own garden is that it really needs to be about you. 36 .
That said, the best gardens work well with their surrounding environment
A. A straight copy is never going to work, is it
B. Grasses are a great example of this sort of secondary role.
C. All of these considerations will really help you set the tone.
D. You shouldn’t concern yourself with what anyone else thinks.
E. The direction your garden faces will also affect the overall look.
F. In the use of different materials in your garden design, less is definitely more.
G. If you want to keep bugs away from your plants, you can spray pesticide regularly.

That said, the best gardens work well with their surrounding environment. For instance, you might want to create a tropical (热带) feel but if you’ve got next-door’s oak tree (橡树) as the major background then it could look slightly odd. 37 If your garden is north-facing and you use black or grey-colored material, everything could become dark and depressing.
A. A straight copy is never going to work, is it
B. Grasses are a great example of this sort of secondary role.
C. All of these considerations will really help you set the tone.
D. You shouldn’t concern yourself with what anyone else thinks.
E. The direction your garden faces will also affect the overall look.
F. In the use of different materials in your garden design, less is definitely more.
G. If you want to keep bugs away from your plants, you can spray pesticide regularly.
When it comes to planting, there are a lot of great influences out there. You might like the work of designers such as Piet Oudolf. But it’s good to remember that these influences are best used as a guide. 38 If you want to use ideas from other garden designers, then look for one that you’re comfortable with but don’t try to copy it outright—just be inspired by them.
A. A straight copy is never going to work, is it
B. Grasses are a great example of this sort of secondary role.

E. The direction your garden faces will also affect the overall look.
F. In the use of different materials in your garden design, less is definitely more.
G. If you want to keep bugs away from your plants, you can spray pesticide regularly.
39 I always think that if you’ve got fewer materials then the plants can sing better. For me, the plants are always at the heart of the garden. If you want them to stand out, keep your materials to as small a number as possible.
It’s the same when we select plants. We often forget that we don’t need a garden full of stars; we also need plants that provide the support act. 40 They often bring a more subtle element to the design.

In the novel Journey To the West, most of the characters are not human, but they show recognizable human 56 (characteristic). This human element is one reason for the novel’s 57 (popular). People see 58 (they) in the characters. A good example of this is the Monkey King himself. He enjoys playing tricks, and at one point he masked himself as a demon (妖怪) 59 (rescue) his friends from a prison, without telling them who he was. He talked about eating Pigsy, nearly 60 (frighten) Pigsy to death.

In a real sense, he had the same life journey that so many people have had through the ages. When young in the Mountain of Flowers and Fruit, he could escape all of the problems in life, but he had to grow up and face the 61 (reality) world, with all its worries. In doing so, he changed 62 someone who loved to play tricks and cause trouble, to someone who is self-disciplined and faithful.
Another reason for the novel’s success is that it is more than just 63 adventure story. It is not only a group’s journey to the West, but is a spiritual journey 64 the characters were forced to examine the nature of right and wrong. For example, in their journey, they faced both demons and gods.

The Students’ Union
Possible version:
Dear fellow students,
Shortsightedness among Chinese students is becoming more serious. With the National Eye Day approaching, it reminds us of the serious situation we are faced with. We can’t attach too much importance to the protection of our eyes.
The situation can be improved if we get regular breaks throughout our busy study and take part in more outdoor activities in the sun instead of fixing our eyes on electronic devices.
I firmly believe that as long as we strengthen our awareness to improve eye health, all of us will have a brighter vision.

第二节 读后续写(满分20分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写一段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I did not know why I had chosen to be here. It felt as though my mind were at home, sitting and watching television, feeling relaxed and having fun, and yet my body was standing here in absolute fear. I looked in the mirror again. My face had been washed clean before applying the heavy make-up. My skin looked deathly white and powdered so that there was no shininess. My eyes looked dark and I was wearing lipstick. I should have been thrilled that I was allowed to wear make-up, but somehow, this didn’t feel like a treat.
Now I had to wait. How easy it should be to simply wait but this felt like a never-ending suffering. I stared at my white shoes as I stretched my feet, trying to distract myself from the way I felt. This dressing room was not small, but there were lots of girls in here. Mum and Dad were sitting in the audience but I was missing them so much. I wished they had been here with me. They were only on the other side of the stage, but that felt like a world away. The speaker asked for the black swans(天鹅)to get ready and as a sudden rush of girls danced into line and headed off towards the stage, I knew that I would be called next. My hands felt wet and sticky. I did not want to go on stage. I did not want the audience staring at me as I performed.
I tried to sit down but it was difficult when you were wearing a tutu(芭蕾舞裙). I wanted to rest my forehead on the mirror, but I knew that I would ruin my make-up and that wouldn’t do. The speaker was asking again, “Calling for white swans, will all white swans make their way to the stage ” I shook my arms, and joined the queue of other white swans. I felt really faint now and I wanted to be sick. I looked around in desperation, waiting to catch the eye of someone, anyone, who could get me out and save me.
注意:1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右;
2. 续写部分分为两段, 每段的开头语已为你写好。

Possible version:
The music started and a girl beside me caught my hand with a comforting smile. “You’ve gotta’ dance like there’s nobody watching”, she whispered to me. Something magical happened. My legs kicked out, my arms moved gracefully and my body formed different positions as the music flowed...and I jumped, I stretched, I leaped and I forgot that I was on the stage. Eventually the music reached its climax and then died away. With graceful ballet runs, we left the stage and returned to the dressing room. How was it over so quickly
We took off our white clothes, a little tired but excited. The big girl grinned and gave me a thumbs-up sign. I felt immense relief and such a huge sense of achievement. I could not wait to see Mum and Dad and to see what they thought, although I knew that they would be proud of me. Saying good bye to her, I walked out of the dressing room. Now I knew what the next performance would be like. Maybe next year I would be the big girl too keen to get on the stage and comfort other timid girls.
