[2023·山东省青岛市二模]My family lived in a tiny apartment in Hoboken，New Jersey. Every December my mom spread the word to anyone alone on Christmas Eve that she would be having an open house. My mom believed that no one should be alone during the holidays. If she could, she probably would have put an advertisement in the paper inviting the world.
As it was, our tiny apartment was stuffed, every room but my bedroom filled with partying adults on Christmas Eve. Sleep was impossible, but I tried to fall asleep anyway because Santa would not leave gifts for children who were awake. As I lay in bed, I wondered how Santa would even know I was asleep amid all the laughter and how he could sneak in and leave gifts with all those people around.
The Christmas Eve Open House tradition continued. When I was 8 years old, we moved to the suburb, where we got to live in a lovely, one bedroom apartment. That first Christmas there, my mom invited anyone she met who she learned would be alone on Christmas Eve—neighbors, co workers, shop girls, the postman...the list went on.
The next year, a new neighbor moved in next door. His name was George, and he was an older gentleman. He always nodded a greeting when he saw us. It was around Thanksgiving when we saw him park in his space near ours. We were bringing in groceries, and my mom asked him if he had plans for the holiday. When he said no, and he would spend it alone, my mom mentioned her open house on Christmas Eve.
“Please join us，” I said. He was already shaking his head no.
“But mom's apple pie is really inviting.”
“I won't be good company, I'm afraid，” he said. “I lost my wife a few months ago.” His eyes were fill with tears and he turned away. “Thank you anyway！” he called. He went into his apartment and quickly closed the door.

Ⅲ.应用文写作
参考范文：
Dear Daniel，
I am Li Hua, a new Senior3 student, who is bothered by the overwhelming pressure of my fast paced life. I am writing to ask you for help because I find it quite hard to concentrate on my study.
I am encountering some problems which trouble me a lot. First, I have to spend so much time on my homework that I hardly have time to do sports. Moreover, the high expectation from the teachers and my parents makes me extremely stressful because I don't want to let them down. What troubles me most is that it's difficult for me to fall asleep every night.
Faced with the problems above, I'm anxious to get your help. Could you please offer me some advice on how to solve these problems
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours，
Li Hua

Ⅳ.读后续写
参考范文：
I felt a bit down and decided to do something. I proposed to my mom that she could make her reputable apple pie so that I could send George some to sample (品尝). Of course, my warm hearted mom immediately sprang into action and made a whole plate in kitchen. As I packed the pie into the box, my mom took out an album, in which photos were neatly arranged and showed our previous gathering with our neighbors, acquaintances and friends. My mom left a short note, which read ‘Please do join us in Christmas！’ As I knocked George's door and handed him the pie together with the album, George was dumbfounded and I could see tears in his eyes as he choked out a shaky thank you.
Our friendship began, and soon Christmas Eve arrived. As we met George in the yard, my mom asked tentatively, “George, have you received my note？” Nodding his head, he beamed a faint smile as if he were still concerned that he might be a wet blanket in the party. “Come on, and I will make tons of apple pie this time.” My mother winked shyly, to which George chuckled a bit. “Oh, I couldn't say no because the pie is simply brilliant.” he replied in a laughing tone. At his positive answer, my mom and I gave each other an exhilarating high five as we would welcome another lonely soul this year, who would definitely be struck by our heartwarming party and thus regain his faith to continue living with enthusiasm and confidence.
【语篇解读】 本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者的妈妈会在每年的12月开放自己的家，邀请任何她觉得在平安夜会独处的人来家里，一个新邻居搬到了隔壁，作者的妈妈问他假期有没有计划，那个人说没有，作者邀请他加入，但是他拒绝了，他含着眼泪说几个月前他失去了妻子。
