In 1959, Handler changed how toy dolls were made when she introduced “Barbie” to the world. With her mature figure, Barbie was one of the first “grown-up” dolls to hit the retail market.
Handler wanted to create a toy that was different from the baby dolls that dominated little girls’ toy boxes. She wanted a doll that girls could project their future dreams upon and allowed for limitless clothing and career choices. Inspired by paper dolls of the time, Handler, to much disagreement, made sure Barbie had the body of a grown woman.
“My own philosophy of Barbie,” Handler wrote in her autobiography, “was that through the doll, the little girl could be anything she wanted to be. Barbie always represented the fact that a woman had choices.”
There’s even a Barbie for cancer patients — Brave Barbie — a partnership between Mattel and CureSearch that sends a bald (光头的) Barbie to families affected by cancer. “Gifting my daughter a Barbie who suffered from cancer was tremendous,” Michelle, a cancer survivor said, “We would play with that Barbie together and I’d heartbreakingly watch her pretend to take the doll to the hospital for chemo (化疗), or place its long wig on top of its head and tell the doll ‘It’s time to be beautiful again.’”
Bald Barbie was super brave and went on awesome adventures after chemo. Sometimes she felt sick and needed to sleep, but would feel much better after a rest. Bald Barbie always beat the cancer and went on to live a long and happy life with her family. That Barbie became so much more than a plastic doll — she was a means of communication and a coping mechanism during an extremely distressing time for little families.
4. Why did Handler create Barbie
A. To make a hit in the retail market. B. To appeal to girls with her diverse outfits.
C. To do a project on women’s career choices. D. To inspire girls to make choices as they wish.
5. How might Michelle feel when watching her daughter with Brave Barbie
A. Sad yet comforted. B. Envious yet proud.
C. Overwhelmed and ashamed. D. Heartbroken and regretful.
6. What does Brave Barbie mean to Michelle’s family
A. A reliable emotional support. B. A glue for broken relationships.
C. An effective practical treatment. D. A secret medium of negotiation.
7. Where is the text probably taken from
A. A medical journal. B. A charity brochure.
C. A financial report. D. A story collection.
【答案】4. D 5. A 6. A 7. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Handler创造芭比娃娃的初衷，以及其中一个名为Brave Barbie的洋娃娃对一个癌症女孩的帮助。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的“She wanted a doll that girls could project their future dreams upon and allowed for limitless clothing and career choices. (她想要一个女孩们可以投射未来梦想的娃娃，并允许无限的服装和职业选择)”和第三段的“the little girl could be anything she wanted to be. Barbie always represented the fact that a woman had choices.(通过这个娃娃，小女孩可以成为任何她想成为的人。芭比娃娃一直代表着女性拥有选择权的事实)”可推知， Handler创造Barbie的目的是让激励女孩根据自己的意愿做出选择。故选D。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的““Gifting my daughter a Barbie who suffered from cancer was tremendous,” Michelle, a cancer survivor said, “We would play with that Barbie together and I’d heartbreakingly watch her pretend to take the doll to the hospital for chemo (化疗), or place its long wig on top of its head and tell the doll ‘It’s time to be beautiful again.’”(“送给我患癌症的女儿一个芭比娃娃真是太棒了，”癌症幸存者米歇尔说，“给我的女儿一个患了癌症的芭比娃娃是一件非常美妙的事情。我们会一起玩那个芭比娃娃，我心碎地看着她假装带着芭比娃娃去医院化疗，或者把它的长假发戴在它的头上，告诉它‘是时候变漂亮了’”)”可推知，Michelle看到女儿和Brave Barbie一起感到欣慰的同时也很难过。故选A。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的“Bald Barbie always beat the cancer and went on to live a long and happy life with her family. That Barbie became so much more than a plastic doll — she was a means of communication and a coping mechanism during an extremely distressing time for little families.(秃头芭比总是战胜癌症，并继续与她的家人过着漫长而幸福的生活。芭比娃娃不仅仅是一个塑料娃娃——她是一个沟通的工具，也是一个在小家庭极度痛苦时期的应对机制)”可推知，Brave Barbie对于米歇尔一家而言是可靠的情感支持，帮助女儿和这个家庭应对极度痛苦的阶段。故选A。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了Handler创造芭比娃娃的初衷，以及其中一个名为Brave Barbie的洋娃娃对一个癌症女孩和其家庭的帮助。由此推知，本文很有可能来自一本故事集。故选D。
C
In 2022, campaign group Fashion Revolution Chelsea dye a garden for its Chelsea Flower Show presentation. An ancient craft, natural dyeing is a practice whose time has come again, with hand tie-dyed fashion also making a comeback in recent years.
The revival has been encouraged by Covid lockdowns, “which allowed people to explore the craft at home, says natural-dyeing enthusiast and teacher Susan Dye. It’s unlikely, though, that the practice would have caught on in quite the same way if not for a continually growing discomfort about fashion’s heavy footprint. From carbon emissions to animal cruelty, fashion is under considerable inspection. “Put it this way, 97% of dyes used in the industry are petrochemically (石油化学产品) based,” says sustainable fashion consultant Jackie Andrews, who helped advise the UN Ethical Fashion Initiative. We’ve got net zero targets which mean we’re going to have to remove all those petrochemicals from the manufacturing cycle.
Fashion is a huge polluter. According to the UN Environment Program, the industry is responsible for up to one-fifth of all industrial water pollution—due to the fact that most clothes today are produced in poorer countries where regulation is weak and enforcement weaker. Waste water is dumped directly into rivers and streams, poisoning the land as well as the water sources of people and animals who rely on them.
It’s easy to see why someone who cares about people, planet and animals, as well as clothes, might turn to natural plant dyeing. From the beauty of the raw materials—often wild plants-to the property of only bonding with natural fiber like cotton and linen (亚麻布) from the minor footprint of recycling old clothing that has grayed or faded over time to the vibrant and long-lasting dyeing results, plant dyeing feels like a quiet act of rebellion. This is why, while beginners start with simply changing their clothes’ color, new worlds open. Many of today’s natural dyers grow their own dye plants, run local community workshops, and advocate for change in industrialized fashion systems and beyond.
8. What is the main reason for the growing discomfort mentioned in paragraph 2
A. The adoption of petrochemical-based dyes
B The disturbing consequences of the fashion industry.
C. The fashion industry’s focus on luxurious designs.
D. The challenging net zero targets to be achieved.
9. How does the author illustrate Fashion is a huge polluter
A. By making a comparison. B. By listing numbers
C. By giving examples. D. By introducing a new topic
10 What does the underlined phrase a quiet act of rebellion in paragraph 4 refer to
A. A protest against turning to natural fiber.
B. An objection to recycling old clothing
C. A resistance to vibrant colors in natural dyeing
D. A struggle for a sustainable fashion industry
11. What would be the most suitable title for the passage
A. The Environmental Impact of Natural Dyeing
B. The Return of Natural Dyeing with Ethical Appeal
C. Fashion Revolution’s Dye Garden Presentation
D. The Petrochemical Dye Industry and Its Challenges
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章介绍了天然染色工艺的回归。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“It’s unlikely, though, that the practice would have caught on in quite the same way if not for a continually growing discomfort about fashion’s heavy footprint. From carbon emissions to animal cruelty, fashion is under considerable inspection. (然而，如果不是因为人们对时尚的沉重足迹不断感到不安，这种做法不太可能以同样的方式流行起来。从碳排放到虐待动物，时尚都受到了严格的检查。)”可知，时尚业也存在碳排放到虐待动物问题，所以人们感到不适是因为时尚产业令人不安的后果。故选B。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Fashion is a huge polluter. According to the UN Environment Program, the industry is responsible for up to one-fifth of all industrial water pollution—due to the fact that most clothes today are produced in poorer countries where regulation is weak and enforcement weaker. Waste water is dumped directly into rivers and streams, poisoning the land as well as the water sources of people and animals who rely on them. (时尚是一个巨大的污染者。根据联合国环境规划署的数据，服装业造成的水污染占所有工业水污染的五分之一，原因是如今大多数服装都是在监管薄弱、执法不力的较贫穷国家生产的。废水被直接排入河流和小溪，污染了土地，也污染了赖以生存的人和动物的水源。)”可知，这一段用实际例子来说明时尚是一个巨大的污染源。故选C。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第四段“It’s easy to see why someone who cares about people, planet and animals, as well as clothes, might turn to natural plant dyeing. From the beauty of the raw materials—often wild plants-to the property of only bonding with natural fiber like cotton and linen (亚麻布) from the minor footprint of recycling old clothing that has grayed or faded over time to the vibrant and long-lasting dyeing results, plant dyeing feels like a quiet act of rebellion. (很容易理解为什么一个关心人类、地球和动物以及衣服的人会转向天然植物染色。从原材料的美丽，到只与天然纤维结合的特性，从回收旧衣服随着时间的推移变灰或褪色的微小足迹，到充满活力和持久的染色效果，植物染色感觉像是一种安静的反叛行为。)”可知，这里描述植物染色和化学染色不一样，所以它是对化学染色的反抗，是对可持续发展的维护，所以画线部分的意思应该是“为可持续发展而做斗争”。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“In 2022, campaign group Fashion Revolution Chelsea dye a garden for its Chelsea Flower Show presentation. An ancient craft, natural dyeing is a practice whose time has come again, with hand tie-dyed fashion also making a comeback in recent years. (2022年，活动组织“切尔西时尚革命”为其切尔西花展的展示染了一座花园。自然染色是一种古老的工艺，它的时代又来了，近年来，手工扎染时尚也卷土重来。)”可知，本文主要介绍天然染色工艺的回归。B项“自然染色的回归与伦理诉求”符合本文的标题。故选B。
D
Despite all the efforts students make to graduate with a science major, research has shown that most college science courses provide students with only a fragmented (碎片化的) understanding of fundamental scientific concepts. The teaching method improves memorization of separate facts, proceeding from one textbook chapter to the next without necessarily making connections between them, instead of learning how to use the information and connect those facts meaningfully.
With that in mind, we developed a series of cross-disciplinary (跨学科的) activities. In our most recent study, we investigated how well college students could use their chemistry knowledge to explain real-world biological phenomena. To begin with, we interviewed 28 first-year college students majoring in sciences or engineering. All had taken both introductory chemistry and biology courses. We asked them to identify connections between the content of these courses and what they believed to be the take-home messages from each course. The students responded with extensive lists of topics, concepts, and skills that they’d learned in class.
Following that, a set of cross-disciplinary activities were designed to guide students in the use of core chemistry ideas and knowledge to help explain real-world biological phenomena. One activity explored the impacts of ocean acidification on seashells. Here, the students were asked to use basic chemistry ideas to explain how the increasing level of carbon dioxide in sea water is affecting shell-building marine animals such as corals, clams and oysters.
Overall, the students felt confident of their chemistry knowledge. However, they had a harder time applying the same chemistry knowledge to explaining the biological phenomena. These findings highlight that a big gap remains between what students learn in their science courses and how well prepared they are to apply that information.
The students in our study also reported that these activities helped them see links between the two disciplines that they wouldn’t have perceived otherwise. The ability to make these connections is important beyond the classroom as well, because it’s the basis of science literacy (科学素养). So we also came away with evidence that our chemistry students at least would like to have the ability to have a deeper understanding of science and how to apply it.
12. What does the existing science education fail to do according to the research
A. Extend students’ theoretical knowledge.
B. Engage students in more outdoor activities.
C. Encourage students to enjoy the learning process.
D. Teach students to make connections among different subjects.
13. What can we learn about the student interviewees
A. They have rich academic knowledge. B. They pay little attention to biology courses.
C. They hardly identify the core ideas of science. D. They fully understand their major’s importance.
14. The activity about ocean acidification expects students to _______________.
A. analyse the exact composition of sea water.
B study some unusual phenomena under the sea.
C. come up with practical methods to protect sea life.
D. explain the effects of carbon dioxide on sea creatures.
15. What does the author see from the result of the study
A. The need to remove the unfairness in education.
B. The difficulties of cross-disciplinary study.
C. The potential to promote students’ science literacy.
D. The method of increasing students’ practical skills.
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了根据研究，现有的科学教育没有做到教学生在不同学科之间建立联系，文章介绍了一项关于学生学到的知识与应用之间的研究以及研究的结果。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“research has shown that most college science courses provide students with only a fragmented (碎片化的) understanding of fundamental scientific concepts.The teaching method improves memorization of separate facts, proceeding from one textbook chapter to the next without necessarily making connections between them, instead of learning how to use the information and connect those facts meaningfully. (研究表明，大多数大学理科课程对基本科学概念只提供给学生零散的理解。这种教学方法提高了对单独事实的记忆，从教科书的一个章节跳到下一个章节，而不必建立它们之间的联系，而不是学习如何使用信息并有意义地将这些事实联系起来)”结合下文“With that in mind, we developed a series of cross-disciplinary (跨学科的) activities. In our most recent study, we investigated how well college students could use their chemistry knowledge to explain real-world biological phenomena.(考虑到这一点，我们开展了一系列跨学科活动。在我们最近的研究中，我们调查了大学生如何很好地利用他们的化学知识来解释现实世界的生物现象。)”可知，根据研究，现有的科学教育没有做到教学生在不同学科之间建立联系。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“To begin with, we interviewed 28 first-year college students majoring in sciences or engineering. All had taken both introductory chemistry and biology courses. (首先，我们采访了28名理工科的大一学生。所有人都学过化学和生物入门课程)”可知，学生受访者有丰富的学术知识。故选A。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“One activity explored the impacts of ocean acidification on seashells. Here, the students were asked to use basic chemistry ideas to explain how the increasing level of carbon dioxide in sea water is affecting shell-building marine animals such as corals, clams and oysters. (其中一项活动探讨了海洋酸化对贝壳的影响。在这里，学生们被要求用基本的化学概念来解释海水中二氧化碳含量的增加是如何影响珊瑚、蛤蜊和牡蛎等造壳海洋动物的)”可知，海洋酸化的活动要求学生解释二氧化碳对海洋生物的影响。故选D。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“So we also came away with evidence that our chemistry students at least would like to have the ability to have a deeper understanding of science and how to apply it. (因此，我们也有证据表明，我们的化学学生至少希望有能力对科学有更深入的理解，以及如何应用它)”可知，作者从研究结果中看到了提高学生科学素养的潜力。故选C。

【37题详解】
考查名词。句意：每个社区都有自己的煎饼小贩，从黎明到上午10点左右供应早餐，满足了上班路上饥饿的当地人。根据“hungry”可知，空处需填名词，local作名词，表示“当地人”，此处不止一个当地人，故用名词复数。故填locals。

【39题详解】

47. 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。
“Mom！” I screamed as I looked through the window, “Why is my Ink Spot sitting in Mrs. Cleary’s window？”
Mom pushed past me to confirm it. Sure enough, across the street was Ink Spot cleaning himself in the window of Mrs. Cleary’s sitting room. I couldn’t believe my eyes. He was my cat, not Mrs. Cleary’s. She had already adopted twelve cats. Why must she keep my cat？I could feel anger boiling up inside me. Meanwhile, Ink Spot’s leaving without any signs upset me. A sense of being left out hit me hard.
Ink Spot was special for me. After my baby sister’s birth, “my” parents’ time was taken by her. It seemed no one in the family cared about or even noticed me. Worse still, I was packed off to a kindergarten. I hated being left out from the bottom of my heart.
It was when mom noticed me weeping in a corner one night that things began to change. After that, Ink Spot came into my life. Every night, he curled（卷曲）up beside me in bed and he was there for me after school when I raced home just to be with him.
I fell in love with Ink Spot the first time I saw its tiny black and white kitten, for which I called him Ink Spot. Mom and daddy beamed with pleasure as my eyes danced with joy again. It was the first time that I had smiled since my little baby sister came into the family. As for me, he was more than a cat. Actually, he was my life.
But today when I came home, Ink Spot was in Mrs. Cleary’s window. I wanted him back. But mom insisted that if Ink Spot stayed at Mrs. Cleary’s, that meant it was where he wanted to be. “No！Mom, Ink Spot is my cat”, I protested wildly but I had to admit the truth of mom’s words. Standing on the sidewalk, I was at a loss as to what to do. Staring at Ink Spot for a while, I couldn’t stand the anger any longer.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I walked towards Mrs. Cleary’s house hurriedly and knocked at the door angrily.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Upon seeing me, Ink Spot jumped off the window, running towards me in a flash.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】I walked towards Mrs. Cleary’s house hurriedly and knocked at the door angrily. The moment she opened the door, I asked Mrs. Cleary with watery eyes, “Why is my cat in your window？” Confused, Mrs. Cleary responded， “I didn’t know he was yours. I just thought he was another abandoned cat, so I took him in just like I took in all the rest. If what I did has hurt you, I am awfully sorry.” Then she led me directly to the sitting room, where cats were playing happily.
Upon seeing me, Ink Spot jumped off the window, running towards me in a flash. A flood of excitement passed through my body. I immediately picked him up and held him close as he rubbed beneath my chin purring loudly. Seeing my cat well taken care of, I realized I had misunderstood my caring neighbor. Now my anger gave way to gratitude. I thanked her again and again before I took Ink Spot to my home, where I thought he should belong. The lost and found companion made me feel I was someone again.

In 1959, Handler changed how toy dolls were made when she introduced “Barbie” to the world. With her mature figure, Barbie was one of the first “grown-up” dolls to hit the retail market.
Handler wanted to create a toy that was different from the baby dolls that dominated little girls’ toy boxes. She wanted a doll that girls could project their future dreams upon and allowed for limitless clothing and career choices. Inspired by paper dolls of the time, Handler, to much disagreement, made sure Barbie had the body of a grown woman.
“My own philosophy of Barbie,” Handler wrote in her autobiography, “was that through the doll, the little girl could be anything she wanted to be. Barbie always represented the fact that a woman had choices.”
There’s even a Barbie for cancer patients — Brave Barbie — a partnership between Mattel and CureSearch that sends a bald (光头的) Barbie to families affected by cancer. “Gifting my daughter a Barbie who suffered from cancer was tremendous,” Michelle, a cancer survivor said, “We would play with that Barbie together and I’d heartbreakingly watch her pretend to take the doll to the hospital for chemo (化疗), or place its long wig on top of its head and tell the doll ‘It’s time to be beautiful again.’”
Bald Barbie was super brave and went on awesome adventures after chemo. Sometimes she felt sick and needed to sleep, but would feel much better after a rest. Bald Barbie always beat the cancer and went on to live a long and happy life with her family. That Barbie became so much more than a plastic doll — she was a means of communication and a coping mechanism during an extremely distressing time for little families.
4. Why did Handler create Barbie
A. To make a hit in the retail market. B. To appeal to girls with her diverse outfits.
C. To do a project on women’s career choices. D. To inspire girls to make choices as they wish.
5. How might Michelle feel when watching her daughter with Brave Barbie
A. Sad yet comforted. B. Envious yet proud.
C. Overwhelmed and ashamed. D. Heartbroken and regretful.
6. What does Brave Barbie mean to Michelle’s family
A. A reliable emotional support. B. A glue for broken relationships.
C. An effective practical treatment. D. A secret medium of negotiation.
7. Where is the text probably taken from
A. A medical journal. B. A charity brochure.
C. A financial report. D. A story collection.

In 2022, campaign group Fashion Revolution Chelsea dye a garden for its Chelsea Flower Show presentation. An ancient craft, natural dyeing is a practice whose time has come again, with hand tie-dyed fashion also making a comeback in recent years.
The revival has been encouraged by Covid lockdowns, “which allowed people to explore the craft at home, says natural-dyeing enthusiast and teacher Susan Dye. It’s unlikely, though, that the practice would have caught on in quite the same way if not for a continually growing discomfort about fashion’s heavy footprint. From carbon emissions to animal cruelty, fashion is under considerable inspection. “Put it this way, 97% of dyes used in the industry are petrochemically (石油化学产品) based,” says sustainable fashion consultant Jackie Andrews, who helped advise the UN Ethical Fashion Initiative. We’ve got net zero targets which mean we’re going to have to remove all those petrochemicals from the manufacturing cycle.
Fashion is a huge polluter. According to the UN Environment Program, the industry is responsible for up to one-fifth of all industrial water pollution—due to the fact that most clothes today are produced in poorer countries where regulation is weak and enforcement weaker. Waste water is dumped directly into rivers and streams, poisoning the land as well as the water sources of people and animals who rely on them.
It’s easy to see why someone who cares about people, planet and animals, as well as clothes, might turn to natural plant dyeing. From the beauty of the raw materials—often wild plants-to the property of only bonding with natural fiber like cotton and linen (亚麻布) from the minor footprint of recycling old clothing that has grayed or faded over time to the vibrant and long-lasting dyeing results, plant dyeing feels like a quiet act of rebellion.

Despite all the efforts students make to graduate with a science major, research has shown that most college science courses provide students with only a fragmented (碎片化的) understanding of fundamental scientific concepts. The teaching method improves memorization of separate facts, proceeding from one textbook chapter to the next without necessarily making connections between them, instead of learning how to use the information and connect those facts meaningfully.
With that in mind, we developed a series of cross-disciplinary (跨学科的) activities. In our most recent study, we investigated how well college students could use their chemistry knowledge to explain real-world biological phenomena. To begin with, we interviewed 28 first-year college students majoring in sciences or engineering. All had taken both introductory chemistry and biology courses. We asked them to identify connections between the content of these courses and what they believed to be the take-home messages from each course. The students responded with extensive lists of topics, concepts, and skills that they’d learned in class.
Following that, a set of cross-disciplinary activities were designed to guide students in the use of core chemistry ideas and knowledge to help explain real-world biological phenomena. One activity explored the impacts of ocean acidification on seashells. Here, the students were asked to use basic chemistry ideas to explain how the increasing level of carbon dioxide in sea water is affecting shell-building marine animals such as corals, clams and oysters.
Overall, the students felt confident of their chemistry knowledge. However, they had a harder time applying the same chemistry knowledge to explaining the biological phenomena. These findings highlight that a big gap remains between what students learn in their science courses and how well prepared they are to apply that information.
The students in our study also reported that these activities helped them see links between the two disciplines that they wouldn’t have perceived otherwise. The ability to make these connections is important beyond the classroom as well, because it’s the basis of science literacy (科学素养). So we also came away with evidence that our chemistry students at least would like to have the ability to have a deeper understanding of science and how to apply it.
12. What does the existing science education fail to do according to the research
A. Extend students’ theoretical knowledge.
B. Engage students in more outdoor activities.
C. Encourage students to enjoy the learning process.
D. Teach students to make connections among different subjects.
13. What can we learn about the student interviewees
A. They have rich academic knowledge. B. They pay little attention to biology courses.
C. They hardly identify the core ideas of science. D. They fully understand their major’s importance.
14. The activity about ocean acidification expects students to _______________.
A. analyse the exact composition of sea water.
B. study some unusual phenomena under the sea.
C. come up with practical methods to protect sea life.
D. explain the effects of carbon dioxide on sea creatures.
15. What does the author see from the result of the study
A. The need to remove the unfairness in education.
B. The difficulties of cross-disciplinary study.
C. The potential to promote students’ science literacy.
D The method of increasing students’ practical skills.

47. 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。
“Mom！” I screamed as I looked through the window, “Why is my Ink Spot sitting in Mrs. Cleary’s window？”
Mom pushed past me to confirm it. Sure enough, across the street was Ink Spot cleaning himself in the window of Mrs. Cleary’s sitting room. I couldn’t believe my eyes. He was my cat, not Mrs. Cleary’s. She had already adopted twelve cats. Why must she keep my cat？I could feel anger boiling up inside me. Meanwhile, Ink Spot’s leaving without any signs upset me. A sense of being left out hit me hard.
Ink Spot was special for me. After my baby sister’s birth, “my” parents’ time was taken by her. It seemed no one in the family cared about or even noticed me. Worse still, I was packed off to a kindergarten. I hated being left out from the bottom of my heart.
It was when mom noticed me weeping in a corner one night that things began to change. After that, Ink Spot came into my life. Every night, he curled（卷曲）up beside me in bed and he was there for me after school when I raced home just to be with him.
I fell in love with Ink Spot the first time I saw its tiny black and white kitten, for which I called him Ink Spot. Mom and daddy beamed with pleasure as my eyes danced with joy again. It was the first time that I had smiled since my little baby sister came into the family. As for me, he was more than a cat. Actually, he was my life.
But today when I came home, Ink Spot was in Mrs. Cleary’s window. I wanted him back. But mom insisted that if Ink Spot stayed at Mrs. Cleary’s, that meant it was where he wanted to be. “No！Mom, Ink Spot is my cat”, I protested wildly but I had to admit the truth of mom’s words. Standing on the sidewalk, I was at a loss as to what to do. Staring at Ink Spot for a while, I couldn’t stand the anger any longer.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I walked towards Mrs. Cleary’s house hurriedly and knocked at the door angrily.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Upon seeing me, Ink Spot jumped off the window, running towards me in a flash.
