第一节 应用文写作参考答案
Dear Rebecca,
Knowing that you are heading back to Britain very soon, I hate to say that parting is truly
hard. But I am delighted that you have enjoyed yourself here and grown attached to Chinese
culture.
As a small token of appreciation, I picked a Chinese painting for you, on which is a pair of
chopsticks. Spanning thousands of years, chopsticks are a kind of tableware with distinct national
features, being an important component that fully reflects the intelligence of Chinese people. They
always come in a pair and look identical. As an ancient Chinese saying goes, good things come in
pairs. Chopsticks embody the beauty of symmetry and harmony of relationships.
Hope you will like the little gift. Wish you a pleasant journey home. Keep in touch.
Yours,
Li Hua

physics; Miss Chang, the new head of the English literature department and our new boys PE
coach, Mr Walden.

perform concerts and plays.
Despite all these changes, the school rules remain the same. Be respectful, be on time, and
always do your best. Thank you.

Christine Rowsey didn’t know how she would go on. The last three years had been hard, but
she still felt that she was making progress toward her goal of becoming a nurse. “I didn’t have any
money. I didn’t have anything—just a dream,” she recalled.
3
That dream came out of the loss of her son, who was born 3 weeks in advance. Unfortunately,
after a whole month in the intensive care unit, the boy left her. Christine’s main source of support
during that ordeal had been the hospital’s nursing staff. “I really loved the way they helped me,”
she said. That’s when Christine had a realization:She wanted to do something with her life that

helped.
She was able to learn in Oakland University’s one-year licensed practical nursing
(LPN)program. She took out loans (贷款)and worried about how she would repay them. She
became the star student but struggled to take care of her family and study at the same time. With
scholarships, she was able to cover about half of her costs. For the rest, she couldn’t find a way
out. That’s when Christine found out about a VOA program, which not only paid for her study but
offered to cover gas and food. “The VOA program was a real blessing,” said Christine. “I
wouldn’t have been able to continue if VOA hadn’t been there for me.”
Christine now works as an LPN in Detroit, where she cares for patients. Through VOA, she
gives talks to young people about the nursing profession. “Nursing school was the hardest thing
I’ve ever done, and VOA helped me through it,” said Christine. “All these people helped me
rewrite my life, the way I wanted it to be written.”
24．Which of the following can replace the underlined word “ordeal” in Paragraph 2
A．Operation.B. Experience.C．Suffering. D．Blessing.
25．Why was Christine determined to be a nurse
A．The support given by the medical workers. B．Her childhood dream.
C．The loss of her life.
D．The death of her son.
26．How did VOA program help her
A．By giving her financial support.
B．By taking her in as an employee．
C．By inviting her to attend their programs.
D．By offering her scholarships.

A．Warm-hearted and funny.B．Strong-willed and thankful.

It’s just past 7 a. m. on a February morning in Maya Bay, several weeks after authorities
reopened what is one of Thailand’s most popular tourist attractions to the world for the first time
since June 2018 following a massive restoration program.
In the hours to follow, a slow but steady flow of tourists becomes in great numbers as dozens
of tourists make their way to the white-sand beach, phones at the ready as they take photos.
4
Swimming is not allowed, though visitors can take a few steps in. It’s disappointing, but a huge
improvement over what visitors once experienced here.
Maya Bay is located in a Thailand’s national park. The destination was made famous by the
2000 film The Beach, starring Leonardo DiCaprio. As the film’s popularity grew, so did tourists’
desire to visit the location where much of it was shot —Maya Bay.
“Around 40 years ago, Maya Bay was already a tourism destination, but mainly for Thai
tourists because you didn’t have speedboats at that time,” says Thon, a marine biologist and
professor who requested authorities to close the bay four years ago. Over the years, the number of
tourists rose from less than 1, 000 to as many as 7, 000 or 8, 000 visitors a day at its peak. On
average, around 5, 000 people entered the bay each day.
In 2018, the Thai government closed the bay and began to restore the damaged ecosystem.
Since then, Thon and a team of fellow marine experts and volunteers have replanted over 30, 000
pieces of coral, much of it grown off the coast of a nearby island. Meanwhile, the wildlife also
returned and has been growing. “Only three months after we closed the bay, the blacktip sharks
came back and gave birth… so there are a lot of things happening in Maya Bay.”
28. What do the first two paragraphs mainly tell us about Maya Bay
A. Its business hours.
B. Its massive restoration
D.Its reopening.
C. Its huge improvement.
29. What does the underlined “it” refer to in the third paragraph

A school science project by a group of students in Canada has led to an important discovery:
EpiPens might not work in space.
An EpiPen is a shot that puts a medicine called “epinephrine (肾上腺素)” straight into a
person’s body with a needle. The epinephrine calms the allergic (过敏的) reaction and helps the
swelling go down so the person can breathe. But students in the Program for Gifted Learners at St.
5
Brother André Elementary School had a question about EpiPens: Would they work in space So
the students designed an experiment to test their idea.
The students worked with Dr. Mayer and a group called iEDU, which offered a program
called Cubes in Space. Students who have their ideas accepted get to send experiments into space
in very small cubes. But the cubes were too small to hold an EpiPen. So the students had to figure
out a way to get the EpiPen liquid into a small jar, called a vial.
The students sent two cubes into space-one on a rocket and the other on a balloon. Each cube
held a vial of pure epinephrine and a vial of EpiPen liquid. Before the launch, Dr. Mayer tested the
liquids to make sure each vial contained good epinephrine. After the cubes returned to Earth, Dr.
Mayer tested the liquids in the vials once more. The vials that held the EpiPen liquid now had no
epinephrine at all. The results from the vials of pure epinephrine were even more surprising. Only
87% of the liquid was still epinephrine. The other 13% had turned into poisonous chemicals.
That's important information for astronauts with allergies.
The discovery the students made is a big deal. It suggests that EpiPens might not work in
space, and might even become dangerous. The students are very pleased to have made such an
important discovery. The students now hope to repeat their experiment a second time, to check
their results.
32. What is the function of EpiPens
A. To help astronauts to record data correctly.
B. To help control dangerous allergic reactions.
C. To make students write smoothly on paper.
D. To assist schools in finding the students' talents.
33. Why did the students design an experiment
A. To confirm they are all gifted learners.
B. To cooperate with Dr. Mayer and the iEDU.
C. To test whether EpiPens will work in space.
D. To demonstrate their ability to explore space.
34. What can we learn about the result of the experiment
A.The students had no confidence in the results.
B. All the liquid in the cube turned into poison.
C. The students discovered something big.
D. EpiPens enjoy popularity among astronauts.
35. What is the best title of the text
A. Allergic Reactions Are to Be Relieved.
B. Important Discoveries Are Made in Space.
C. Medical Experiments Are Done for Astronauts.

D. Student Scientists Study EpiPens in Space

13-year-old Ryan was a lazy video game addict who always required the help of the
housekeeper for everything.His father，Alex，noticed how spoiled（宠坏的） his son was，so
he decided to set things right.
One day，Ryan was running late for school，but he was still busy playing video games.He
was so distracted that he had no time to put on his socks and shoes，so the housekeeper did it for
him.
"Dad，I'm ready.Let's go!" he finally shouted，taking his school bag.Alex had always driven
him to his school even though it was just a seven-minute walk from their home.For Ryan，that
would seem like a hundred tiring miles.
That morning，to Ryan's surprise，Alex asked him to walk to school instead. "What？No!I
can't carry this heavy bag to school on foot.Please drop me off，Dad，" Ryan said.But Alex
turned a deaf ear. "You're a grown-up boy now，Ryan!Just walk.Get used to it，" he said.
Ryan had no choice but to walk along the road.He was out of breath when he got to the school
gate.He came into his classroom and sat on the chair quickly.He was tired.He wasn't used to
walking，even for a few minutes.What a lazy and weak boy Ryan was!
When Ryan was still resting，he found a boy he didn't know entering the classroom in a
wheelchair.The boy was Mike，who was new to Ryan's neighborhood and lived very close to
Ryan's house.He moved in with his grandparents recently after he lost his ability to walk in a car
crash that killed his parents.Regardless of his extremely bad luck，Mike decided to be strong，
optimistic，confident，brave and independent.
Although Mike was new in class，all classmates welcomed him warmly.Ryan never made a
single friend all these years.Nobody liked him because he was lazy.The attention Mike got that
day made him more upset.

head.Quite disappointed，Ryan had to walk to school.
