(2022·新高考全国Ⅱ卷)
We journalists live in a new age of storytelling, with many new multimedia tools.Many young people don't even realize it's new.For them, it's just normal.
This hit home for me as I was sitting with my 2-year-old grandson on a sofa over the Spring Festival holiday.I had brought a children's book to read.It had simple words and colorful pictures—a perfect match for his age.
Picture this: my grandson sitting on my lap as I hold the book in front so he can see the pictures.As I read, he reaches out and pokes(戳) the page with his finger.
What's up with that He just likes the pictures, I thought.Then I turned the page and continued.He poked the page even harder.I nearly dropped the book.I was confused: Is there something wrong with this kid
Then I realized what was happening.He was actually a stranger to books.His father frequently amused the boy with a tablet computer which was loaded with colorful pictures that come alive when you poke them.He thought my storybook was like that.
Sorry, kid.This book is not part of your high-tech world.It's an outdated, lifeless thing.An antique, like your grandfather.Well, I may be old, but I'm not hopelessly challenged, digitally speaking.I edit video and produce audio.I use mobile payment.I've even built websites.
There's one notable gap in my new-media experience, however: I've spent little time in front of a camera, since I have a face made for radio.But that didn't stop China Daily from asking me last week to share a personal story for a video project about the integration of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei province.
Anyway, grandpa is now an internet star—two minutes of fame! I promise not to let it go to my head.But I will make sure my 2-year-old grandson sees it on his tablet.

Bard, Kinetic (Coffee House Press, 2023) by Anne Waldman, one of the most important living American poets, is a new collection of autobiographical(自传体的) pieces, including published and unpublished essays, correspondence, interviews, and poems from the last 20 years.
Though the origin of the texts and poems is relatively recent, Bard, Kinetic tracks Waldman's life from her childhood in Greenwich Village to the present.Rather than a memoir(回忆录) , this energetic collection integrates her stories into contexts—literary, political, spiritual, familial.
In Sketch, the first and longest piece in the book, Waldman describes what guided her to poetry from an early age—Her intellectual and artistic parents encouraged her “to read widely, to write, to think, to talk about it, to be curious and critical.” Reading Sketch for its wonderful autobiographical details and the successful moments that run through Waldman's life is a pleasure.In Interview with Poetas, Madrid 2018, another piece from the book's second section, she wrote, “We need cultural and humanitarian revolution.We need poetry to remind us of the magic we have had that needs attendance and recharge.” Her voice and vision have a collective width.
Waldman insists on combining art with nearly every aspect of her life.Bard, Kinetic, at all points, a high-energy construct, and at all points, an energy-discharge, puts readers on the path to recognizing poetry as a mental aid, as an action that reaches across geography, species, and time.As she wrote in the book's preface, she commands herself to “keep pushing for knowledge, study with a deeper investigation and a deeper action.The action, totally necessary”.These are high aims that Waldman has insisted on, tirelessly, her entire life.Waldman shines.Her heart could be our heart.
This new book is best read as a companion of Vow to Poetry (2001), Waldman's previous collection of interviews and autobiographical essays, which will help readers appreciate this book better.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章是关于书籍Bard, Kinetic的书评。
28.What do we know about Bard, Kinetic by Waldman B
A.It is a memoir.
B.It documents her life and work.
C.It is her first collection of poems.
D.It is to be issued by Coffee House Press.
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段“a new collection of ...and poems from the last 20 years.(……是一个新的自传体作品集,包括发表和未发表的散文,通信,采访,和过去20年来的所有诗歌。)及第二段第一句(虽然这些文本和诗歌的起源相对较晚,但是Bard, Kinetic记录了沃尔德曼从格林尼治村的童年到现在的生活。)”可知,Bard, Kinetic记录了作者的生活和工作情况。故选B。
29.What's the purpose of paragraph 3 B
A.To add relevant background information.
B.To help readers gain partial insight into the book.
C.To persuade readers to conduct selective reading.
D.To introduce Waldman's writing styles.
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段内容可知,本段对书籍中的部分情节做了一个描述,因而其目的是帮助读者了解这本书的部分内容。故选B。
30.What is implied in the sentence “Her heart could be our heart.” in Paragraph 4 A
A.We should stick to our goals.
B.We should learn poems by heart.
C.We should seek fame and wealth.
D.We should enjoy life to our hearts' content.
解析:推理判断题。根据第四段中“These are high aims that Waldman has insisted on, tirelessly, her entire life.(这些都是沃尔德曼一生孜孜不倦地坚持的崇高目标。)”可推知, 该句指作为读者,应该学习她对目标执着的追求的这种精神。选项A与文意相符。故选A。
31.What's the text C

(2023·广东省广州市象贤中学高二期末)
In the Ancient Greek world, one was meant to focus on a close knowledge of just two books.Homer's Odyssey and his Iliad, because these were the best guides to action in military and civilian affairs.However, the modern world firmly equals the intelligent person with the well-read person.
Nowadays, if we do not rush to read four of this year's major prize winning books, we will feel guilty at how far behind we are.We think that there should be no limit to how much we read because in answer to the question of why we read, there is only one response that will ever be ambitious enough: we read in order to know everything.
But this tiring approach to reading does not make us particularly happy.So in order to ease and simplify our lives, we might have a much more limited, focused and useful goal.We might, for example, read in order to learn to be content.Nothing less and nothing more.
With this new, far more targeted ambition in mind, much of the pressure to read constantly and randomly starts to fade.Once we know that we are reading to be content, we don't need to chase every book published this season.We can zero in on titles that best explain what we need.So for example, we may need a few key books that will teach us about how families work and how they might work better, that can take us through how to find a job, or how to develop the courage to develop our opportunities.
The more we understand what reading is for us, the more we can enjoy close relationships with a few works only.The truly well-read person isn't the one who has read a huge number of books, but someone who has let themselves be deeply shaped by just a few, very well-chosen titles.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。作者在文章中介绍了当今社会中盲目阅读的现象,并提倡人们有针对性的阅读,阅读能够满足自己需要的书籍。
32.Why are Homer's Odyssey and Iliad mentioned in the first paragraph D
A.To present a fact.
B.To explain a point.
C.To raise a question.
D.To make a comparison.
解析:推理判断题。作者在第一段中把过去的人和现在的人对阅读的态度进行对比,在古希腊世界,人们专注于读荷马的《奥德赛》和《伊利亚特》,因为这两本书是军事和民事行动的最佳指南,而现代人却认为读的书越多就越聪明,盲目阅读,因此第一段提到荷马的《奥德赛》和《伊利亚特》是为了把过去和现在的阅读观进行比较。故选D。
33.What can we infer from Paragraph 2 and 3 D
A.Major prize winning books should be read.
B.We should be ambitious to read to know everything.
C.Reading as much as we can leads to happiness.
D.We should read with focused purpose.
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段前两句(但这种令人厌倦的阅读方式并没有让我们特别高兴。因此,为了使我们的生活变得轻松和简单,我们可能会带有一个更加有限、专注和有用的目标去阅读。)可以推断出我们应该有目的地阅读。故选D。
34.What kind of books does the author advise us to read C
A.The newly published ones.
B.Those with innovative names.
C.The books meeting your needs.
D.The books improving your ambitions.
解析:细节理解题。根据倒数第二段关键句“We can zero in on titles that best explain what we need.(我们可以专注于最能诠释我们需要的书)”可知,作者建议我们读能满足我们的需要的书。故选C。
35.What is the author's purpose in writing the text B
A.To promote our interest in reading.
B.To advocate a targeted reading way.
C.To criticize reading blindly.
D.To compare different reading styles.
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句(真正博览群书的人不是那些读了大量书籍的人,而是那些让自己被一些精心挑选的书深深影响的人。)可知,作者写作的目的是提倡有针对性的阅读方式。故选B。

Settling down with a great novel enables you to consider ideas that might have never crossed your mind had you not chosen it in the first place. 36.G If you have the urge and are curious about how to start a book club, it's easier than you might think.
First, find members.Reach out to your existing reading-loving friends and post a notice in your local library or bookstore.If you're open to a more digital-friendly approach, put the word out about your new club via Twitter or Facebook. 37.F
Then set group guidelines.To guarantee your new group is all on the same page, take time to discuss what you want to get out of regular club gatherings before your first official meeting.Will your time together be spent largely focusing on the novel at hand 38.E While enjoying stimulating non-book conversation over coffee and snacks is in no way ill-advised, not everyone who signs up for a book club is willing to reject their novel for a cup.
39.C Books that work really well are the ones that help you reflect on self.They have lots of entry points for people so they probably have a good setting.Also, there's great character development.Select something with the criteria, and you can please all kinds of readers.
As far as how often you meet, that schedule is up to your members to determine what's realistic—plus how long it will take to complete the book.As for location, meeting up at your home is always an option. 40.A Meeting at a public space like a bar can ease the pressure of entertaining.
A.Don't feel bound to act as host, though.
B.Which scene has stuck with you the most
C.Picking books may seem like the trickiest part.
D.You'll gain a sense of community from book clubs.
E.Will refreshments ultimately be the most important
F.You may get people beyond your daily contact to join your circle.
G.And sometimes you just want to discuss what you've read with others.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要就如何建立读书俱乐部提出了一些建议。
解析:
36.本句是在说明后文提到的 the urge(这种冲动)的具体内容:想和别人讨论你读过的东西。故G选项(有时候你只是想和别人讨论你读过的东西。)符合语境。故选G。
37.上文提到通过Twitter或Facebook宣传你的新俱乐部,本句为本段最后一句,应承接上文说明这么做的原因,故F选项(你可以让你日常接触之外的人加入你的圈子。)符合语境。故选F。
38.后文提到了边喝咖啡边吃零食,可推测本句与上文并列,都是设问句,故E选项(茶点最终会是最重要的吗?)符合语境。故选E。
39.后文介绍有用的书的作用,及关键句“Select something with the criteria, and you can please all kinds of readers.(选择符合标准的东西,你可以让各种读者满意!)”可知,本段的主旨是关于书的选择的建议,故C选项(选书似乎是最棘手的部分。)作为本段主旨句。故选C。
40.根据上文“As for location, meeting up at your home is always an option.(至于地点,在家里见面总是一个不错的选择。)”可知,本句是在针对上文提到的在家见面所提出的建议。故A选项(不过,不要觉得一定要当主人。)符合语境。故选A。

第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)

43.A.when B.where

Chinese idiom is one of the priceless legacies(遗产) deeply rooted in traditional culture, making Chinese language more 56.powerful (power), more functional and thus, more fascinating.
Pooling collective wisdom or “Ji Si Guang Yi”, one of Chinese 57.idioms (idiom),can better ensure success, reminding people to humbly listen to others' advice 58.before they make major decisions.The idea was first proposed by Zhuge Liang, 59.a well-known military strategist during the Three Kingdom Period (220-280).“One who 60.holds (hold) office should pool the ideas and wisdom of the people and 61.widely (wide) draw on all well-intended and useful views,” wrote Zhuge Liang in his article, “Instructions to Subjects and Officials.”
Today, the expression 62.has developed (develop) into an effective way to improve working efficiency and show respect for the opinions of the masses.All the opinions and ideas 63.collected (collect) from others can give the decision maker a more comprehensive picture of the current situation and help him or her make a correct decision.
Listening humbly to others' opinions, especially those 64.which/that differ from one's own, can help one improve the initiative, wisdom and power of the masses.The method has been adopted by the Chinese people in their decision-making in daily life 65.to secure (secure) success.

解析:
56.考查形容词。句意:中国成语是深深植根于传统文化的无价遗产之一,使汉语更强大,更实用,从而更迷人。根据并列成分more functional和more fascinating及空处前more可知,此处应为形容词,作宾补;由句意,表示“强大的,有力的”。故填powerful。
57.考查名词。句意:凝聚集体智慧或“集思广益”,中国成语之一,可以更好地确保成功,这提醒人们在做重大决定前要虚心听取他人的建议。根据空处前Chinese可知,此处应为名词,作宾语;由one of可知,应用名词复数。故填idioms。
58.考查连词。句意:凝聚集体智慧或“集思广益”,中国成语之一,可以更好地确保成功,这提醒人们在做重大决定前要虚心听取他人的建议。分析句子可知,此处应为状语从句连词;结合句意,应用before,表示“在……之前”,连接时间状语从句。故填before。
59.考查冠词。句意:这个想法最初是由诸葛亮——三国时期一名著名的军事战略家提出的。分析句子可知,此处应为冠词,作定语修饰名词短语military strategist;根据句意此名词短语作同位语,说明诸葛亮是一名著名的军事战略家,应用不定冠词a。故填a。
60.考查时态和主谓一致。句意:担任公职的人应该集思广益,广泛听取一切善意和有益的意见。分析句子可知,此处应为谓语动词;根据句意,应用一般现在时,表示客观事实;主语为定语从句的关系代词who,代替先行词one,故谓语应为单数。故填holds。

63.考查非谓语动词。句意:从别人那里收集的所有意见和想法都可以让决策者更全面地了解当前的形势,帮助他或她做出正确的决定。由句中谓语can give可知,此处应为非谓语动词,作定语修饰ideas,并与其形成被动关系,故应用过去分词形式作后置定语。故填collected。
64.考查定语从句关系词。句意:虚心听取别人的意见,特别是不同于自己的意见,有助于提高群众的积极性、智慧和力量。分析句子可知,“ 64 differ from one's own”为定语从句,修饰先行词those,指“那些意见”,在从句中作主语,故应用关系代词which/that。故填which/that。
65.考查非谓语动词。句意:这种方法已被中国人在日常生活中用于决策以确保成功。由句中谓语has been adopted可知,此处应为非谓语动词,作状语;结合句意,表示“方法被采用的目的”,应为目的状语,故用动词不定式。故填to secure。

Dear David,
I'm sorry to hear that you failed to pass HSK.I hope that the unexpected failure won't let you down, for I have still been amazed by the excellent Chinese you spoke when we first met.
As we know, language learning is never an easy task, but needs painstaking efforts and patience.Personally, I think you'd better pay close attention to the formal use of Chinese words and expressions, which really counts.Meanwhile, you may as well read more Chinese materials as much as you can afford.More importantly, you should learn from the mistakes that you have made.Anyhow, you've already made great progress in your learning of Chinese.
Hopefully, my suggestions will be of some help and wish you good luck.
Yours,

第二节 读后续写(满分25分)
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。
(2023·湖南省株洲市一模)
NEVER STOP WALKING
When Justin was 7, he suffered from a disease that led to problems with the development of his back.Over the years, the little boy had gone through a total of five corrective surgeries.Justin could no longer walk and was limited to a wheelchair.But this did not stop him from living a normal life thanks to his mother's love and others' help.
After entering high school, Justin got interested in playing the trumpet(小号) and joined the school's band.He served as one of the band's trumpeters and developed a strong friendship with his partner Tom.As Thanksgiving Day approached, the band intended to perform in the Thanksgiving Day Parade and every member had the chance to join in, including Justin.However, there was one obvious problem.Justin could not control his wheelchair and play the trumpet at the same time.The band director put forward an idea of one student pushing Justin during his marches.Tom immediately volunteered even though it meant he had to give up the opportunity to play his own instrument during the parade.“I do it just to make sure Justin knows that he always has a place in the band, and he always will,” Tom said to their director secretly.From then on, the two practiced together, one playing the instrument and the other pushing the wheelchair with the rhythm of the music.
To help Justin, Tom sacrificed(牺牲) far beyond expectation.Apart from losing the chance to perform, he needed to spare more time to take care of Justin and even missed his football training several times.All of these were seen by Justin and the burden of guilt weighed heavily on his mind.“I can't meet my own needs at the sacrifice of Tom's chance.It is time to find a solution.” Justin thought to himself as his mother pushed him on the way home.His mother lowered her head and said,“Justin, play me your new tune.” Justin took out his trumpet and was about to play when an excellent idea came to him.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
He turned around to ask his mother for help.
Paragraph 2:
Thanksgiving finally came, as did Justin and mom's performance.
解析:
1.通读全文,把握大意。
本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了贾斯汀从小得了疾病,必须坐轮椅,有一次他想参加感恩节的游行演奏,但是他没办法一边演奏一边控制轮椅,他的朋友汤姆愿意放弃自己演奏的机会来帮助贾斯汀,但是贾斯汀觉得汤姆为自己牺牲太多,最后他请母亲帮他推轮椅,这样最后贾斯汀和汤姆都能参加游行演奏。
2.分析续写段首句,合理设计情节。
第一段首句内容:他转身向母亲求助。第二段首句内容:感恩节终于来了,贾斯汀和妈妈的表演也来了。根据原文最后一段 “I can't meet my own needs at the sacrifice of Tom's chance.It is time to find a solution.” 和“an excellent idea came to him.”以及第二段首句,可知贾斯汀想出的主意是和妈妈一起表演,所以第一段可描写贾斯汀向母亲求助,请他帮自己推轮椅,母亲欣然答应。根据第二段首句内容可知贾斯汀和妈妈表演的日子到了,第二段可描写贾斯汀和妈妈的配合很完美,赢得大家的赞美。
参考范文:
Paragraph 1:
He turned around to ask his mother for help.“Mom, could you please push me in the Thanksgiving Day Parade instead of Tom He gave up his chance of performing to assist me.” Justin looked up at his mother, eagerly awaiting her reply.“Sure, my dear!” Mom bent and kissed his forehead.“I'm happy to join you and witness every moment of your growth.” Justin grinned from ear to ear with the huge load off his mind.With Mom's participation, the practice went smoothly and joyfully, every member, Justin and Tom included, having a place in the performance and playing their part intently in preparation for the big day.
Paragraph 2:
Thanksgiving finally came, as did Justin and mom's performance.Dressed in the same performing suit, mom pushed Justin proudly with a bright smile on her face as Justin threw himself heart and soul into the performance.Joyful music floating in the air, the mother and son were indeed a perfect match in the parade, which soon became the center of attention.The entire audience broke into thunderous applause, not only for the whole band's performance, but also for the love between Justin and his mother.Sometimes one person may not walk, but love and assistance can help go anywhere.UNIT 5 学业质量检测

We journalists live in a new age of storytelling, with many new multimedia tools.Many young people don't even realize it's new.For them, it's just normal.
This hit home for me as I was sitting with my 2-year-old grandson on a sofa over the Spring Festival holiday.I had brought a children's book to read.It had simple words and colorful pictures—a perfect match for his age.
Picture this: my grandson sitting on my lap as I hold the book in front so he can see the pictures.As I read, he reaches out and pokes(戳) the page with his finger.
What's up with that He just likes the pictures, I thought.Then I turned the page and continued.He poked the page even harder.I nearly dropped the book.I was confused: Is there something wrong with this kid
Then I realized what was happening.He was actually a stranger to books.His father frequently amused the boy with a tablet computer which was loaded with colorful pictures that come alive when you poke them.He thought my storybook was like that.
Sorry, kid.This book is not part of your high-tech world.It's an outdated, lifeless thing.An antique, like your grandfather.Well, I may be old, but I'm not hopelessly challenged, digitally speaking.I edit video and produce audio.I use mobile payment.I've even built websites.
There's one notable gap in my new-media experience, however: I've spent little time in front of a camera, since I have a face made for radio.But that didn't stop China Daily from asking me last week to share a personal story for a video project about the integration of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei province.
Anyway, grandpa is now an internet star—two minutes of fame! I promise not to let it go to my head.But I will make sure my 2-year-old grandson sees it on his tablet.

Bard, Kinetic (Coffee House Press, 2023) by Anne Waldman, one of the most important living American poets, is a new collection of autobiographical(自传体的) pieces, including published and unpublished essays, correspondence, interviews, and poems from the last 20 years.
Though the origin of the texts and poems is relatively recent, Bard, Kinetic tracks Waldman's life from her childhood in Greenwich Village to the present.Rather than a memoir(回忆录) , this energetic collection integrates her stories into contexts—literary, political, spiritual, familial.
In Sketch, the first and longest piece in the book, Waldman describes what guided her to poetry from an early age—Her intellectual and artistic parents encouraged her “to read widely, to write, to think, to talk about it, to be curious and critical.” Reading Sketch for its wonderful autobiographical details and the successful moments that run through Waldman's life is a pleasure.In Interview with Poetas, Madrid 2018, another piece from the book's second section, she wrote, “We need cultural and humanitarian revolution.We need poetry to remind us of the magic we have had that needs attendance and recharge.” Her voice and vision have a collective width.
Waldman insists on combining art with nearly every aspect of her life.Bard, Kinetic, at all points, a high-energy construct, and at all points, an energy-discharge, puts readers on the path to recognizing poetry as a mental aid, as an action that reaches across geography, species, and time.As she wrote in the book's preface, she commands herself to “keep pushing for knowledge, study with a deeper investigation and a deeper action.The action, totally necessary”.These are high aims that Waldman has insisted on, tirelessly, her entire life.Waldman shines.Her heart could be our heart.
This new book is best read as a companion of Vow to Poetry (2001), Waldman's previous collection of interviews and autobiographical essays, which will help readers appreciate this book better.

In the Ancient Greek world, one was meant to focus on a close knowledge of just two books.Homer's Odyssey and his Iliad, because these were the best guides to action in military and civilian affairs.However, the modern world firmly equals the intelligent person with the well-read person.
Nowadays, if we do not rush to read four of this year's major prize winning books, we will feel guilty at how far behind we are.We think that there should be no limit to how much we read because in answer to the question of why we read, there is only one response that will ever be ambitious enough: we read in order to know everything.
But this tiring approach to reading does not make us particularly happy.So in order to ease and simplify our lives, we might have a much more limited, focused and useful goal.We might, for example, read in order to learn to be content.Nothing less and nothing more.
With this new, far more targeted ambition in mind, much of the pressure to read constantly and randomly starts to fade.Once we know that we are reading to be content, we don't need to chase every book published this season.We can zero in on titles that best explain what we need.So for example, we may need a few key books that will teach us about how families work and how they might work better, that can take us through how to find a job, or how to develop the courage to develop our opportunities.
The more we understand what reading is for us, the more we can enjoy close relationships with a few works only.The truly well-read person isn't the one who has read a huge number of books, but someone who has let themselves be deeply shaped by just a few, very well-chosen titles.

Settling down with a great novel enables you to consider ideas that might have never crossed your mind had you not chosen it in the first place. 36. If you have the urge and are curious about how to start a book club, it's easier than you might think.
First, find members.Reach out to your existing reading-loving friends and post a notice in your local library or bookstore.If you're open to a more digital-friendly approach, put the word out about your new club via Twitter or Facebook. 37.
Then set group guidelines.To guarantee your new group is all on the same page, take time to discuss what you want to get out of regular club gatherings before your first official meeting.Will your time together be spent largely focusing on the novel at hand 38. While enjoying stimulating non-book conversation over coffee and snacks is in no way ill-advised, not everyone who signs up for a book club is willing to reject their novel for a cup.
39. Books that work really well are the ones that help you reflect on self.They have lots of entry points for people so they probably have a good setting.Also, there's great character development.Select something with the criteria, and you can please all kinds of readers.
As far as how often you meet, that schedule is up to your members to determine what's realistic—plus how long it will take to complete the book.As for location, meeting up at your home is always an option. 40. Meeting at a public space like a bar can ease the pressure of entertaining.
A.Don't feel bound to act as host, though.
B.Which scene has stuck with you the most
C.Picking books may seem like the trickiest part.
D.You'll gain a sense of community from book clubs.

NEVER STOP WALKING
When Justin was 7, he suffered from a disease that led to problems with the development of his back.Over the years, the little boy had gone through a total of five corrective surgeries.Justin could no longer walk and was limited to a wheelchair.But this did not stop him from living a normal life thanks to his mother's love and others' help.
After entering high school, Justin got interested in playing the trumpet(小号) and joined the school's band.He served as one of the band's trumpeters and developed a strong friendship with his partner Tom.As Thanksgiving Day approached, the band intended to perform in the Thanksgiving Day Parade and every member had the chance to join in, including Justin.However, there was one obvious problem.Justin could not control his wheelchair and play the trumpet at the same time.The band director put forward an idea of one student pushing Justin during his marches.Tom immediately volunteered even though it meant he had to give up the opportunity to play his own instrument during the parade.“I do it just to make sure Justin knows that he always has a place in the band, and he always will,” Tom said to their director secretly.From then on, the two practiced together, one playing the instrument and the other pushing the wheelchair with the rhythm of the music.
To help Justin, Tom sacrificed(牺牲) far beyond expectation.Apart from losing the chance to perform, he needed to spare more time to take care of Justin and even missed his football training several times.All of these were seen by Justin and the burden of guilt weighed heavily on his mind.“I can't meet my own needs at the sacrifice of Tom's chance.It is time to find a solution.” Justin thought to himself as his mother pushed him on the way home.His mother lowered her head and said,“Justin, play me your new tune.” Justin took out his trumpet and was about to play when an excellent idea came to him.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
He turned around to ask his mother for help.
Paragraph 2:
Thanksgiving finally came, as did Justin and mom's performance.
