第二部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)
第一节(共11小题,每小题 2.5分,满分27.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Time was introduced to us when we were just kids and only knew the playing hours, but when we grew up, we got our own senses about how important “The Time” is. There is a story on time management which can give you some guidance.
A philosophy professor, once, decided to teach the students a valuable lesson about Time Management, so he stood before his class with some items on the table. When the class began, wordlessly he picked up a big and empty jar and proceeded to fill it with rocks, about 2 inches in size. He then looked towards the class and asked the students if the jar was full. They all agreed that it was full. Therefore, the professor then moved to pick up a box of pebbles (鹅卵石) and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar gently. The pebbles, of course, rolled through the gaps between the rocks.
He then again looked up to the students and asked if the jar was full. They all again nodded their heads. For the last time, he turned towards the jar, this time, picked up a box of sand, poured it into the jar and shook it lightly. Of course, the sand moved into the gaps and filled up everything else. He then asked students for the last time if the jar was full or not. The students were surprised but responded with a unanimous “Yes”.
“Now,” said the professor, “I want you to realize that this jar actually is your life. The rocks are the important things— like your family, your children, your health, your partner. If nothing remained but only these, your life would still be full. The pebbles are the other things that matter —like your job, your career, your house. The sand is everything else, the unimportant stuff.” “If you put the sand into the jar first,” he continued “there is no space for the pebbles or the rocks.”
“The same goes for your life. If you keep on filling the jar with the sand, it means that you keep on spending all your time and energy on the pity things and you will never have room for the things that are important for you. First and foremost, focus on the rocks — the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.”
1. What’s the main function of the first paragraph
A. To make a prediction. B. To offer a guidance
C. To provide some advice. D. To attract readers’ interest.
2. What can we know about the lesson from the passage
A. The professor put the pebbles into the jar first.
B. The professor did four experiments altogether.
C. The result of the experiment was beyond students’ expectation.
D. It aimed to make students realize the importance of time for success.
3. What is the main lesson the professor wants to convey in the class
A. It is important to make full use of time efficiently.
B. It is necessary to attach more importance to what truly matters in life.
C. It is crucial to strengthen the consciousness of managing time.
D. It is vital to arrange enough time for all aspects of life in advance.
B
“The Worthington Christian defeated the Westerville North by 2—1 in an Ohio boys’ soccer game on Saturday.” That’s according to a story that appeared last month in The Columbus Dispatch. That lead was written not by a sportswriter, but by an artificial intelligence (AI) tool.
Many news organizations are now examining how AI might be used in their work. But if they begin their “experimenting” with high school sports because they are less momentous than war, peace, climate change and politics, they may miss something crucial. Nothing may be more important to the students who play high school sports, and to their families, neighborhoods, and sometimes, the whole town. That next game is what the students train for, work toward, and dream about. Someday, almost all student athletes will go on to have jobs in front of screens, in office parks, at schools, in hospitals or on construction sites. They may suffer blows and setbacks. But the high school games they played and watched, as well as their hopes and cheers, will stay vivid in their memories.
I have a small idea. If newspapers will no longer send staff reporters to cover high school games, why not hire high school student journalists News organizations can pay students an hourly wage to cover high school games. The young reporters might learn how to be fair to all sides, write vividly, and attract readers. That’s what some celebrities in sports did, and do.
And think of the great writers who were inspired by sports: Hemingway on fishing, Bernard Malamud and Marianne Moore on baseball, Chen Zhongshi on football, and CLR James on cricket, who said, “There can be raw pain and bleeding where so many thousands see the inevitable (不可避免的) ups and downs of only a game.” A good high school writer, unlike a robot, could tell readers not just the score, but the stories of the game.
4. Why is the lead mentioned in the first paragraph
A. To introduce an original idea. B. To show AI’s wide application.
C. To bring in the opinion about AI. D. To stress AI’s importance to news.
5. What does the author think of high school games
A. Hopeful. B. Eye-catching. C. Competitive. D. Far-reaching.
6. What is good sports news like according to the author
A. Rich in contents. B. Fair in comments.
C. Centered on results. D. Targeted on readers.
7. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. News Organizations Are Abusing AI B. High Schoolers Can Do What AI Can’t
C. Great Writers Are Crazy About Sports D. AI Ruins High School Students’ Memory
C
Chinese Teapot Escaping from British Museum Goes Viral
Chinese state media has praised a viral video series telling the story of a jade teapot coming to life and fleeing the British Museum to make its way back home
The set of three short videos, entitled Escape from the British Museum, shows the teapot turning into a young woman in a green dress, who then engages a London-based Chinese journalist to help her reunite with her family. It appears to have struck a chord (弦) in China after first being released by independent vloggers on Douyin. By Monday evening, it had reportedly received more than 310 million views. The plot line taps into growing Chinese criticism of the British Museum after reports last month that more than 1,500 priceless objects, including gold jewelry, semi-precious stones and glass, were missing, stolen or damaged.
In August the state media Global Times called for the return of Chinese artifacts from the museum “free of charge” in the wake of the controversy. “The huge holes in the management and security of cultural objects in the British Museum exposed by this scandal (丑闻) have led to the collapse of a long-standing and widely circulated claim that ‘foreign cultural objects are better protected in the British Museum’,” it said. It strongly supported the video series for touching on a “powerful message” about the importance of cultural heritage and reflecting “Chinese people’s desiring for the repatriation of the Chinese cultural relics.”
State broadcaster CCTV also gave the short films a glowing review saying: “We are very pleased to see Chinese young people are passionate about history and tradition... We are also looking forward to the early return of Chinese artifacts that have been displayed overseas.”
The museum scandal made headlines around the world and reawakened earlier demands by the Chinese media to restore the country’s relics. The new three-part show has triggered a wave of nationalism among viewers, with many praising the creative plot that reduced them to tears by showing how the teapot experienced the happiness of returning to China to see pandas and watch a flag-raising ceremony on Tiananmen Square.
8. What excuse does Britain give for keeping other nations’ cultural objects in its museum
A. It has taken possession of these objects by all lawful means.
B. These objects are safer and taken better care of in its museum.
C. It is requested by other nations to protect their cultural objects.
D. These objects may come to life, flee their countries and go viral.
9. What does the underlined word “repatriation”(Para.3) probably mean
A. Repair. B. Reflection. C. Reserve. D. Return.
10. Which of the following can we infer from the passage
A. China had already demanded the restoration of its cultural relics before the scandal.
B. The museum’s awful management and security systems are involved in the scandal.
C. The Britain Museum is under pressure to return the cultural relics to China sooner or later.
D. A London-based Chinese journalist has contributed a lot to the viral three-part video series.
11. What’s the purpose of the passage
A. To appeal to Britain to return China’s cultural objects.
B. To introduce a viral video series about a fleeing jade teapot.
C. To arouse readers’ concern about Chinese cultural objects abroad.
D. To praise Chinese young people’s passion for history and tradition.

Last summer vacation, I traveled to Sanya in Hainan, China. When my dad told me one of the items on the journey would be one of the highest water slides (水上滑梯) in Asia, I asked my dad repeatedly whether I could stay, at home. But my dad said that I would love it and we should go together.
Three days later, I was standing in front of that water slide in Atlantics Waterpark. The slide was located in a building. When I looked up at the thousands of stairs leading to the peak of the building, I thought to myself, “If I fall-from that place, I will definitely die.”
As we started climbing the stairs, I saw three words on the wall: Leap (跳跃) of Faith. I had never heard of these words, and at that time they reminded me of death rather than success. Five meters, ten meters... I looked down and thought, “I am going to die today.” Fifteen meters, twenty meters... I thought about many things I hadn’t done and asked my dad whether I had life insurance. Twenty-five meters, thirty meters... and we were finally at the top, ready to jump into the slide. I looked at the three people next to me and thought, “These are the last three people I will see in my life.”
I had to admit that at that moment, my heart was filled with fear, and my legs were trembling. I hesitated about taking the step. Just then, a younger boy next to me said, “Excuse me, if you don’t want to go now, I will go first.” Then he walked past me and jumped into the slide, disappearing in seconds.
My father said to me jokingly, “Look, that boy is not even half of your height. He dares to challenge e on, Selina. You can do it.”
注意:1.续写的词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答;
3.续写的内容中须有环境(景物)描写。
With a dep breath, I stepped closer to the edge of the slide.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph2:
A moment later, my father came down the slide, too. There was a note of excitement on his face. He rushed over and gave me a high-five. “Nice job! Selina. It wasn’t that hard, was it ” Looking up at the high slide again, I exclaimed proudly, “Yes! We survived!” We exchanged a knowing smile, both realizing I had conquered the fear inside and made a perfect leap.

A
Time was introduced to us when we were just kids and only knew the playing hours, but when we grew up, we got our own senses about how important “The Time” is. There is a story on time management which can give you some guidance.
A philosophy professor, once, decided to teach the students a valuable lesson about Time Management, so he stood before his class with some items on the table. When the class began, wordlessly he picked up a big and empty jar and proceeded to fill it with rocks, about 2 inches in size. He then looked towards the class and asked the students if the jar was full. They all agreed that it was full. Therefore, the professor then moved to pick up a box of pebbles (鹅卵石) and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar gently. The pebbles, of course, rolled through the gaps between the rocks.
He then again looked up to the students and asked if the jar was full. They all again nodded their heads. For the last time, he turned towards the jar, this time, picked up a box of sand, poured it into the jar and shook it lightly. Of course, the sand moved into the gaps and filled up everything else. He then asked students for the last time if the jar was full or not. The students were surprised but responded with a unanimous “Yes”.
“Now,” said the professor, “I want you to realize that this jar actually is your life. The rocks are the important things— like your family, your children, your health, your partner. If nothing remained but only these, your life would still be full. The pebbles are the other things that matter —like your job, your career, your house. The sand is everything else, the unimportant stuff.” “If you put the sand into the jar first,” he continued “there is no space for the pebbles or the rocks.”
“The same goes for your life. If you keep on filling the jar with the sand, it means that you keep on spending all your time and energy on the pity things and you will never have room for the things that are important for you. First and foremost, focus on the rocks — the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.”

B
“The Worthington Christian defeated the Westerville North by 2—1 in an Ohio boys’ soccer game on Saturday.” That’s according to a story that appeared last month in The Columbus Dispatch. That lead was written not by a sportswriter, but by an artificial intelligence (AI) tool.
Many news organizations are now examining how AI might be used in their work. But if they begin their “experimenting” with high school sports because they are less momentous than war, peace, climate change and politics, they may miss something crucial. Nothing may be more important to the students who play high school sports, and to their families, neighborhoods, and sometimes, the whole town. That next game is what the students train for, work toward, and dream about. Someday, almost all student athletes will go on to have jobs in front of screens, in office parks, at schools, in hospitals or on construction sites. They may suffer blows and setbacks. But the high school games they played and watched, as well as their hopes and cheers, will stay vivid in their memories.
I have a small idea. If newspapers will no longer send staff reporters to cover high school games, why not hire high school student journalists News organizations can pay students an hourly wage to cover high school games. The young reporters might learn how to be fair to all sides, write vividly, and attract readers. That’s what some celebrities in sports did, and do.
And think of the great writers who were inspired by sports: Hemingway on fishing, Bernard Malamud and Marianne Moore on baseball, Chen Zhongshi on football, and CLR James on cricket, who said, “There can be raw pain and bleeding where so many thousands see the inevitable (不可避免的) ups and downs of only a game.” A good high school writer, unlike a robot, could tell readers not just the score, but the stories of the game.
4. Why is the lead mentioned in the first paragraph
A. To introduce an original idea. B. To show AI’s wide application.
C. To bring in the opinion about AI. D. To stress AI’s importance to news.
5. What does the author think of high school games
A. Hopeful. B. Eye-catching. C. Competitive. D. Far-reaching.
6. What is good sports news like according to the author
A Rich in contents. B. Fair in comments.
C. Centered on results. D. Targeted on readers.
7. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. News Organizations Are Abusing AI B. High Schoolers Can Do What AI Can’t
C. Great Writers Are Crazy About Sports D. AI Ruins High School Students’ Memory
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. A 7. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章探讨了现在许多新闻机构不重视高中体育比赛的新闻报道,只用人工智能写手,因此新闻只是一个成绩公告,没有故事性。但是作者认为,高中的体育比赛会给学生带来美好的回忆,新闻机构可以雇用高中生记者进行报道。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段““The Worthington Christian defeated the Westerville North by 2—1 in an Ohio boys’ soccer game on Saturday.” That’s according to a story that appeared last month in The Columbus Dispatch. That lead was written not by a sportswriter, but by an artificial intelligence (AI) tool. (“在周六的俄亥俄州男子足球比赛中,沃辛顿基督徒队以2比1击败了北方韦斯特维尔队。”这是根据上个月发表在《哥伦布快讯》上的一篇报道。这篇头条新闻不是体育记者写的,而是人工智能工具写的)”可知,本段主要介绍了这则新闻报道不是体育新闻记者写的,而是人工智能工具写的,再结合下文作者主要发表对人工智能用于学校体育新闻报道的看法可推知,这里提到该头条新闻是为了引出下文关于人工智能的观点。故选C项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“Nothing may be more important to the students who play high school sports, and to their families, neighborhoods, and sometimes, the whole town. That next game is what the students train for, work toward, and dream about. Someday, almost all student athletes will go on to have jobs in front of screens, in office parks, at schools, in hospitals or on construction sites. They may suffer blows and setbacks. But the high school games they played and watched, as well as their hopes and cheers, will stay vivid in their memories. (对于参加高中体育运动的学生,对他们的家庭,社区,有时甚至是整个城镇来说,没有什么比这更重要了。下一场比赛是学生们训练、努力和梦想的目标。总有一天,几乎所有的学生运动员都将在屏幕前、办公园区、学校、医院或建筑工地工作。他们可能遭受打击和挫折。但他们参加和观看的高中比赛,以及他们的希望和欢呼,将留在他们的记忆中)”可知,高中体育运动对于学生及他们周围的生活圈来说非常重要,这是他们学生时代努力的目标,也会在未来他们进入工作领域时影响他们,为他们提供美好的回忆。由此推知,作者认为高中体育比赛的影响很深远。故选D项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中引用的CLR James的话“There can be raw pain and bleeding where so many thousands see the inevitable (不可避免的) ups and downs of only a game. (成千上万的人看到的只是一场比赛不可避免的起起落落,可能会带来疼痛和流血)”以及“A good high school writer, unlike a robot, could tell readers not just the score, but the stories of the game. (一个优秀的高中作家,不像机器人,不仅能告诉读者比分,还能告诉他们比赛的故事)”可知,作者认为好的体育新闻不仅要告诉读者比赛的结果,还应内容丰富,讲述其故事,体现其起伏。故选A项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章第一段介绍当前高中体育比赛的新闻报道不是体育新闻记者写的,而是人工智能工具完成的现象;第二段表示对人工智能撰写高中体育比赛新闻的反对,探讨高中体育比赛的积极影响;第三段建议新闻机构雇用高中生记者来报道高中体育比赛;最后一段提到高中生新闻撰写者比人工智能有优势。由此可知,本文主要讲述的是高中生能够做到人工智能做不到的事情——把高中体育比赛新闻撰写得有声有色,因此B项“高中生可以做人工智能做不到的事情”最适合作为文章标题。故选B项。

Chinese Teapot Escaping from British Museum Goes Viral
Chinese state media has praised a viral video series telling the story of a jade teapot coming to life and fleeing the British Museum to make its way back home.
The set of three short videos, entitled Escape from the British Museum, shows the teapot turning into a young woman in a green dress, who then engages a London-based Chinese journalist to help her reunite with her family. It appears to have struck a chord (弦) in China after first being released by independent vloggers on Douyin. By Monday evening, it had reportedly received more than 310 million views. The plot line taps into growing Chinese criticism of the British Museum after reports last month that more than 1,500 priceless objects, including gold jewelry, semi-precious stones and glass, were missing, stolen or damaged.
In August the state media Global Times called for the return of Chinese artifacts from the museum “free of charge” in the wake of the controversy. “The huge holes in the management and security of cultural objects in the British Museum exposed by this scandal (丑闻) have led to the collapse of a long-standing and widely circulated claim that ‘foreign cultural objects are better protected in the British Museum’,” it said. It strongly supported the video series for touching on a “powerful message” about the importance of cultural heritage and reflecting “Chinese people’s desiring for the repatriation of the Chinese cultural relics.”
State broadcaster CCTV also gave the short films a glowing review saying: “We are very pleased to see Chinese young people are passionate about history and tradition... We are also looking forward to the early return of Chinese artifacts that have been displayed overseas.”
The museum scandal made headlines around the world and reawakened earlier demands by the Chinese media to restore the country’s relics. The new three-part show has triggered a wave of nationalism among viewers, with many praising the creative plot that reduced them to tears by showing how the teapot experienced the happiness of returning to China to see pandas and watch a flag-raising ceremony on Tiananmen Square.
8. What excuse does Britain give for keeping other nations’ cultural objects in its museum
A. It has taken possession of these objects by all lawful means.
B. These objects are safer and taken better care of in its museum.
C. It is requested by other nations to protect their cultural objects.
D. These objects may come to life, flee their countries and go viral.
9. What does the underlined word “repatriation”(Para.3) probably mean
A. Repair. B. Reflection. C. Reserve. D. Return.
10. Which of the following can we infer from the passage
A. China had already demanded the restoration of its cultural relics before the scandal.
B. The museum’s awful management and security systems are involved in the scandal.
C. The Britain Museum is under pressure to return the cultural relics to China sooner or later.
D. A London-based Chinese journalist has contributed a lot to the viral three-part video series.
11. What’s the purpose of the passage
A. To appeal to Britain to return China’s cultural objects.
B. To introduce a viral video series about a fleeing jade teapot.
C. To arouse readers’ concern about Chinese cultural objects abroad.
D. To praise Chinese young people’s passion for history and tradition.
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了关于一只逃跑的玉壶的短视频在网络迅速走红,并引起中国官方媒体《环球时报》和中央电视台的报道和评价。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段““The huge holes in the management and security of cultural objects in the British Museum exposed by this scandal(丑闻) have led to the collapse of a long-standing and widely circulated claim that ‘foreign cultural objects are better protected in the British Museum’,” it said.(“这次丑闻暴露出大英博物馆在文物管理和安全方面的巨大漏洞,导致了长期以来广泛流传的‘外国文物在大英博物馆得到更好的保护’的说法的崩溃,”它说)”可推知,英国把其他国家的文物存放在自己的博物馆里的理由是:它声称这些文物在它的博物馆里更安全,能得到了更好的照顾。故选B。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据常识和划线词所在句“Chinese people’s yearning for the repatriation of the Chinese cultural relics.(中国人民渴望中国文物的repatriation。)”中“Chinese people’s yearning for”可推知,中国人民渴望着这些珍贵文物的“回归”。划线词repatriation与return同义。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The museum scandal made headlines around the world and reawakened earlier demands by the Chinese media to restore the country’s relics. (博物馆的丑闻成为世界各地的头条新闻,并重新唤起了中国媒体早些时候要求归还中国文物的呼声)”可知,这一次大英博物馆文物丢失和损坏的丑闻重新唤起中国媒体要求归还中国文物的呼声。由此推知,在此之前中国已经要求大英博物馆。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,结合文章标题“Chinese Teapot Escaping from British Museum Goes Viral (“从大英博物馆逃跑的中国茶壶”在社交媒体上走红)”和文中内容可知,本文主要介绍了关于一只逃跑的玉壶的短视频在网络迅速走红,并引起中国官方媒体《环球时报》和中央电视台的报道和评价。所以“介绍一个关于‘逃跑的玉壶’的视频系列”是文章的写作目的。故选B。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文为现代家庭提供实用的建议,帮助他们在忙碌的日程和家庭成员的不同口味之间找到平衡,建立一种健康和谐的饮食方式。
【12题详解】
上文“When you eat, take the time to really notice your food — eat slowly and without distractions.(当你吃东西的时候,花点时间真正地注意你的食物——慢慢地吃,不要分心)”提到,吃东西时要关注食物,选项 D“这种专注会培养对身体需求的深深尊重”说明这样做的好处,且与上文中提到的“Mindfulness transforms eating into a nurturing practice(专注将饮食转变为一种养育实践)”相呼应,即专注吃饭是一种滋养身心的实践。故选D。
【13题详解】
下句“Consider establishing guidelines that encourage eating without distractions such as TVs, phones or other electronic devices.(考虑制定一些指导方针,鼓励人们在没有电视、电话或其他电子设备干扰的情况下进食)”提到了“考虑制定一些指导方针”,暗示着要建立一些规则或准则,因此本段的主题应该是关于家庭用餐时的规则或准则。因此,A项“制定用餐时的家庭规则”最适合标题。故选A。
【14题详解】
根据本段小标题“Establish a flexible meal routine.(建立一个灵活的饮食习惯)”可知,要建立一个灵活的饮食习惯,以适应个人和家庭的需求。而C项“尊重自己的饥饿信号很重要”强调尊重自己的饥饿信号,这符合灵活饮食的原则,也与后句“If you’re hungry earlier, empower (授权) yourself to eat when you feel the need.(如果你早饿了,那就在你觉得有必要的时候再吃)”相照应。故选C。
【15题详解】
上文“There’s beauty in flexibility; you can still share quality time with loved ones by sitting together at the table when they eat, even if you’re not eating yourself.(灵活性包含美好;即使你自己不吃饭,你仍然可以和你爱的人一起坐在餐桌旁,分享他们吃饭的美好时光)”提到,灵活的饮食习惯包含美好,即使自己不吃饭,也能和家人一起分享美好的就餐时光,G 项“这种方法尊重你的身体需求,同时保持一起吃饭的乐趣”与上文语义一致,且与后句“It’s about finding balance between personal nutrition needs and family well-being.(这是关于在个人营养需求和家庭健康之间找到平衡)”相照应。故选G。
【16题详解】
根据本段“Creating an environment that celebrates health y eating involves everyone in the household. Discuss preferences openly and plan meals that are inclusive, ensuring that each person feels valued. Shared meal preparation becomes a moment for bonding and respect for individual health goals.(营造一个鼓励健康饮食的环境需要每个家庭成员的参与。公开讨论自己的喜好,计划包罗一切的餐点,确保每个人都感到被重视。共同准备饭菜成为一个时刻的纽带和尊重个人的健康目标)”可知,本段主要讲每个家庭成员都要参与饮食活动,空处是段落的结尾,E项“通过让每个人都参与进来,用餐成为集体关怀和尊重的体现”强调了全家人共同参与饮食活动的重要性,并将其与集体关怀和尊重联系起来,与本段前面的内容形成呼应。故选E。

Over the last few decades, technologies have been constantly springing up, and have brought countless convenience to people’s life.

What impressed us most is mobile payment which allows us to pay for everything wherever there is a QR code.

Last summer vacation, I traveled to Sanya in Hainan, China. When my dad told me one of the items on the journey would be one of the highest water slides (水上滑梯) in Asia, I asked my dad repeatedly whether I could stay, at home. But my dad said that I would love it and we should go together.
Three days later, I was standing in front of that water slide in Atlantics Waterpark. The slide was located in a building. When I looked up at the thousands of stairs leading to the peak of the building, I thought to myself, “If I fall-from that place, I will definitely die.”
As we started climbing the stairs, I saw three words on the wall: Leap (跳跃) of Faith. I had never heard of these words, and at that time they reminded me of death rather than success. Five meters, ten meters... I looked down and thought, “I am going to die today.” Fifteen meters, twenty meters... I thought about many things I hadn’t done and asked my dad whether I had life insurance. Twenty-five meters, thirty meters... and we were finally at the top, ready to jump into the slide. I looked at the three people next to me and thought, “These are the last three people I will see in my life.”
I had to admit that at that moment, my heart was filled with fear, and my legs were trembling. I hesitated about taking the step. Just then, a younger boy next to me said, “Excuse me, if you don’t want to go now, I will go first.” Then he walked past me and jumped into the slide, disappearing in seconds.
My father said to me jokingly, “Look, that boy is not even half of your height. He dares to challenge e on, Selina. You can do it.”
注意:1.续写的词数应为150左右;

A moment later, my father came down the slide, too. There was a note of excitement on his face. He rushed over and gave me a high-five. “Nice job! Selina. It wasn’t that hard, was it ” Looking up at the high slide again, I exclaimed proudly, “Yes! We survived!” We exchanged a knowing smile, both realizing I had conquered the fear inside and made a perfect leap.

【答案】参考答案
With a deep breath, I stepped closer to the edge of the slide. The sunlight reflected off the water below, making it seem both inviting and threatening. I closed my eyes, crossed my legs, wrapped my arms around myself, and took that “Leap of Faith”. The initial drop was scary, and I could feel my heart beating. As I went through the slide’s twists and turns, fear became a thrill of excitement. It took me only several seconds to get to the bottom of the slide, marking the end of the highest water slide adventure in Asia.
A moment later, my father came down the slide, too. There was a note of excitement on his face. He rushed over and gave me a high-five. “Nice job! Selina. It wasn’t that hard, was it ” Looking up at the high slide again, I exclaimed proudly, “Yes! We survived!” We exchanged a knowing smile, both realizing I had conquered the fear inside and made a perfect leap. It was this experience that taught me although difficulty comes in millions of forms, what I need to do is just try to challenge myself and take a leap of faith. It will definitely lead me to success.
