Sarah Toumi, a young girl growing up in France, had a dream of becoming a leader who could make a positive
impact on the world. Her desire to help others was awakened when she accompanied her Tunisian father to his
hometown in the eastern part of Tunisia during vacations. During her time there, she organized homework clubs and activities for children. Toumi personally witnessed the destructive effects of desertification (沙漠化). She realized
that within 10 years, wealthy farmers had become worse off. Toumi was determined to stop the progression of the
Sahara Desert. Due to a decrease in average rainfall and an increase in severe droughts (干旱), approximately 75%
of Tunisia’s agricultural lands are currently at risk of desertification.
Toumi understood the need for a shift in farming practices. She firmly believed that even small plots of land
could bring significant returns if farmers were willing to adapt. This adaptation involved planting sustainable crops,
using advanced water treatment technologies, and prioritizing natural products and fertilizers (肥料) over chemical
alternatives.
In 2012, Toumi took a decisive step towards realizing her dream of fighting desertification. She moved to
Tunisia and set up a program called Acacias for All, with the aim of putting her sustainable farming principles into action. “I want to show young people in rural areas that they can create opportunities where they are. Nobody is better
able to understand the impact of desertification and climate change than somebody who is living without water. ”
By September 2016, over 130,000 acacia trees had been planted on 20 pilot farms, with a survival rate of 60% reported by farmers. Toumi estimates that around 3 million acacia trees are required to protect Tunisia's farmland. She plans to plant 1 million trees by 2018. In the coming years, Toumi aims to expand the program to Algeria and
Morocco.
24. How did Toumi’s holiday trips to Tunisia influence her
A. They made her decide to leave the country.
B. They helped her better understand her father.
C. They destroyed her dream of being a teacher.
D. They inspired her to help others.
25. What is the main cause of the desertification of Tunisia’s farmland
A. Cold weather. B. Soil pollution. C. Low rainfall. D. Forest damage.
26. Why did Toumi establish Acacias for All in Tunisia
A. To ensure access to primary education for children.
B. To promote the conservation of agricultural land.
C. To generate job opportunities for young people.
D. To persuade the farmers not to use fertilizers.
27. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. The Impact of Desertification on Tunisia’s Agricultural Lands
B. Sarah Toumi: A Young Leader Making a Positive Impact
C. Addressing Poverty in North Africa
D. The journey of a French girl in Tunisia

Words are powerful: they have the ability to lift up the lowest of the low or tear down the highest of the high. But
a strong argument could be made that our body language is even more influential. The most effective communication
occurs when the importance of body language in teaching is acknowledged. When these nonverbal signals are
working together with our words, it creates communication synergy.
It has been suggested that two-thirds ofour communication is nonverbal. Positive body language in a classroom setting has the ability to motivate, inspire and engage. It can not only give you the confidence you need to teach but can also inform your students that you actually know what you’re talking about. It can even make your students feel
safe and confident enough to participate in the lessons more frequently.
Most leadership positions encourage body language that shows power and confidence. Signals include standing tall, gesturing only from the waist up, head straight and forward, and talking while pointing to others, which are obvious ways to exercise control. But when teaching, the nonverbal signals need to show a different type of leader. These signals convey warmth and understanding, reminding your students that you are approachable and there to help them grow. For example, fix your eyes on one student for about 15-30 seconds before changing to another student, which is one of the best ways to keep students’ focus. Nod your head. Give a thumbs up—maybe two! Show them
they are on the right path and they will be more confident in continuing down it.
The importance of body language can never be ignored. It’s desirable that you should advocate using body language in teaching and pay attention to the use rule and using skills. You should use right, natural and clear body language. It’s crucial that you create good classroom atmosphere, inspire students’ imagination and grasp students’
mood.
28. Which has a similar meaning as the underlined word “synergy” in Paragraph 1
A. Energy loss. B. Confusing result.
C. Individual effect. D. Combined power.
29. What do most leadership positions mainly express
A. Warmth. B. Control.
C. Understanding. D. Encouragement.
30. What’s the purpose of the last paragraph
A. To explain a theory. B. To make a description.
C. To give suggestions. D. To summarize a debate.
31. What is the text mainly talking about
A. The importance of teacher’s body language.
B. The effective ways of good communication.
C. The value of teacher-student communication.
D. The prospect of students’ nonverbal learning.

The design of the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic torch (火炬) was shown on July 25, marking almost a
year until the opening ceremony (典礼) of the Paris Olympic Games.
The torch, measuring 70 centimeters and weighing 3.3 pounds, is made with lightweight radiant steel and is
known for its champagne color, a color of French white wine.
Mathieu Lehanneur, the designer of the torch said that he drew inspiration from three Paris 2024 symbols-equality, water and peacefulness. Equality is shown by perfect balance. Peacefulness is shown by the gentleness of the curves. The lower half features a relief pattern that copies the movement of the River Seine, along
which the opening ceremony will be held.
It will be the first torch in the history of the Games to be used for both the Olympics and Paralympics. Past designs have shared similarities but are different in shape and color. This is part of the organizing committee’splan to “build bridges between the Olympic and Paralympic Games”, Paris 2024’s president Tony Estanguet said in a
statement.
Equality means putting the same ambition into organising the Paralympic Games as the Olympic Games.
Following on from the medals to the mascots, the Olympic and Paralympic Games will share the same torch design.
Equality in the Paris 2024 project is also reflected in the strong promise to equality in the Olympic Games: For the first time in the history of the Games, as many women as men will take part in the competitions. Reflecting this desire for peace, the torch, with its curves and rounded lines, is filled with gentleness. The design of the torch
delivers generosity and unity.
“Such a project is a dream for a designer, because it’s a project that connects something symbolic and technical
in one, for a big moment,” Lehanneur said.
32. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The shape of the torch.
B. The inspiration of the torch.
C. The ceremony of the Games.
D. The location of the opening ceremony.
33. What is special about the torch
A. It is very heavy.
B. It is perfect in shape.
C. It copies the movement of the River Seine
D. It will be used in the Olympics and Paralympics
34. What can we infer from what Lehanneur said in the last paragraph
A. He had a passion for sports.
B. He wanted to be a well-known designer.
C. He felt a sense of achievement and pride.
D. He wished to connect everything together.
35. What can be the best title for the text
A. A designer realized his dream B. Inspiration of the 2024 Games
C. Paris 2024 showed torch design D. Equality, water and peacefulness

It hasn’t been an easy year for the privacy of travelers，at least so far. Data leaks，surveillance（监视） worries and those troublesome cameras in airplane seat backs and hotel rooms are enough to make passengers anxious. 36 Fortunately，there are ways to safeguard your privacy on land and in the air. These tips can help you deal with
these troubles.
37 “It’s not clever to declare on Facebook that you’re traveling to somewhere ，reminding a wide range of people that your property is sitting empty ， ”says Danny McLoughlin. “That puts your security at risk.” Wait
until you return to start posting vacation photos.
Some homeowners renting their residences may install security cameras. Travelers should find out if the hosts are required to disclose the presence of surveillance devices. If the rental comes with cameras ，ensure they
aren’t in a sensitive area by conducting a careful sweep. 38
Although you can’t control how a hotel or airline handles or mishandles your data ，you can take reasonable steps to ensure the information it has won’t get you into trouble. 39 But some of the worst data leaks happen when you’re staying at a hotel. For example ，a hotel clerk sometimes asks for your name and then announces your room number after you’ve checked in. You’re better off handing the employee your ID when he or she asks for your name and asking him/her to write your room number on a piece of paper. Why 40 Just to be sure，
never leave the customer copy behind. You can destroy it later ，but keep it under your control.
A. It’s never been better.
B. Perhaps they should be.
C. Travelers say they’re taking privacy seriously.
D. Never broadcast your journey on social media.
E. There are other people on the other side of the wall.
F. Some travelers only offer the bare minimum ，such as a P. O. Box instead of a home address.
G. Report anything doubtful to the host immediately and if you don’t like what you hear ，leave.

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
Dad and Madison were walking through the party store, gathering decorations for Madison’s upcoming
birthday party.
“But I don’t want to invite Lucy Gilbert! I don’t like her!”
“Madison, you are being unreasonable. If every girl in your class is invited to a party but you, you’ll feel left out.
It would be a big mistake not to invite Lucy to the party. ”“She never even talks to me! ”
Dad sighed and moved down the aisle ( 走廊). “Lucy is a new girl in class. She just moved here a little over a month ago. Think about how that must feel. She doesn’t know one single person in the school. She left all of her old friends behind and now she has to try to make new friends. Your party will be a great chance for her to get to know
everyone. ”
“No, it won’t. She will probably sit in the corner and not talk to anyone. Everyday at lunch she sits all by herself.
She wants to eat alone!" Madison shrugged and rolled her eyes (翻白眼).
“Madison, I’m done discussing this. You will invite every girl in your class, including Lucy Gilbert!"
On Saturday morning, the family blew up balloons and decorated the house cheerfully. Madison was dressed beautifully for the day, wearing her new blue dress. It was not typical of her to dress herself like this. She usually
wore sports clothes because she loved to be outside riding her horse Star with a lead rope (缰绳).
Madison greeted her friends at the doorstep, picturing (想象)various presents her friends would bring her. In the meanwhile, she was wondering whether Lucy would ruin the party if she came. Anyhow, all the girls she invited came finally, including Lucy. The girls had a fantastic time by singing and dancing while Lucy sat in the corner
silently alone. Later, all the girls gathered around the table as Madison opened her presents. Opening them one by
one, Madison thanked her friends, with a bright smile on her face.
注意：
1. 所续写短文的词数应为 150 左右； 2. 请按如下格式作答。
Paragraph 1：
Lucy’s present was the very last to be opened.

M: And it’s not good to go to bed with a full stomach. But we can’t stay up later, because we’ve both got to getup so
early for work every day.
W: I know.

【原文】M: Kate, could you tell me something about your English courses
W: No problem, we have many courses, but we don’t run them at the same time. For example, we only run a reading
course in this first term. And next term you can do the writing.
M: Is there anything you run every term
W: Yes, we have a speaking course every term.
M: Do you have about 25 students in each class as our normal courses
W: No, we try to keep it between 15 and 20. It’s important for language classes.
M: Do you enter us for exams
W: Yes, but we don’t want you to have them with your main course exams in June, so we run them in May. That
leaves you time for revision.

【原文】W: That was a great holiday in South Africa, wasn’t it, Tom
M: It was brilliant, Kirsty. I even enjoyed the flight. The best thing was watching some great films.
W: Yes. But I preferred looking out of the window at Africa below us. And the food wasn’t bad.
M: I was surprised by the weather when we arrived.
W: I expected it to be warm, but it was raining.
M: At least it wasn’t windy.
W: Which animals did you like best My favorites were the elephants.
M: They were amazing. I loved the lions, too. But I liked the monkeys best.
W: Can you remember what we did on Saturday
M: Erm, was that the day we went boating
W: No, that was Friday. I remember now — we went for a walk in the desert. It was beautiful.

W: It was great doing all those different sports.

【原文】Welcome to Focus on Sport. Today we’ll talk about how the Olympics can change the host city. The
Olympics can help the people who live there. A great example is the Beijing Olympics in 2008. They built a
fantastic swimming center called the Water Cube, and now families from all over Beijing can use it, and not only
for swimming — it’s a popular place to spend the day. So it’s really made life better in the city. The Olympics can
also help children. After the London Olympics in 2012, a lot of school children in London started a new sport.
Before the Olympics, many of them preferred to play video games and watch TV. Many people say the Olympics
cost a lot of money, but they can also make money for a city. Take the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics for example.
Before, tourists always went to Sochi in the summer to swim in the sea. But after 2014, people knew that you could
also do winter sports there, so now it has tourists all year around. It’s a big change. So, if someone tells you the
Olympics cost too much next time, tell them about the benefits.

Sarah Toumi, a young girl growing up in France, had a dream of becoming a leader who could make a positive
impact on the world. Her desire to help others was awakened when she accompanied her Tunisian father to his
hometown in the eastern part of Tunisia during vacations. During her time there, she organized homework clubs and activities for children. Toumi personally witnessed the destructive effects of desertification (沙漠化). She realized
that within 10 years, wealthy farmers had become worse off. Toumi was determined to stop the progression of the
Sahara Desert. Due to a decrease in average rainfall and an increase in severe droughts (干旱), approximately 75%
of Tunisia’s agricultural lands are currently at risk of desertification.
Toumi understood the need for a shift in farming practices. She firmly believed that even small plots of land
could bring significant returns if farmers were willing to adapt. This adaptation involved planting sustainable crops,
using advanced water treatment technologies, and prioritizing natural products and fertilizers (肥料) over chemical
alternatives.
In 2012, Toumi took a decisive step towards realizing her dream of fighting desertification. She moved to
Tunisia and set up a program called Acacias for All, with the aim of putting her sustainable farming principles into action. “I want to show young people in rural areas that they can create opportunities where they are. Nobody is better
able to understand the impact of desertification and climate change than somebody who is living without water. ”
By September 2016, over 130,000 acacia trees had been planted on 20 pilot farms, with a survival rate of 60% reported by farmers. Toumi estimates that around 3 million acacia trees are required to protect Tunisia's farmland. She plans to plant 1 million trees by 2018. In the coming years, Toumi aims to expand the program to Algeria and
Morocco.
24. How did Toumi’s holiday trips to Tunisia influence her
A. They made her decide to leave the country.
B. They helped her better understand her father.
C. They destroyed her dream of being a teacher.
D. They inspired her to help others.
25. What is the main cause of the desertification of Tunisia’s farmland
A. Cold weather. B. Soil pollution. C. Low rainfall. D. Forest damage.
26. Why did Toumi establish Acacias for All in Tunisia
A. To ensure access to primary education for children.
B. To promote the conservation of agricultural land.
C. To generate job opportunities for young people.
D. To persuade the farmers not to use fertilizers.
27. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. The Impact of Desertification on Tunisia’s Agricultural Lands
B. Sarah Toumi: A Young Leader Making a Positive Impact
C. Addressing Poverty in North Africa
D. The journey of a French girl in Tunisia
【答案】24. D 25. C 26. B 27. B

的家乡时，她帮助他人的愿望被唤醒了。 )”可知，去突尼斯的旅行激励着她去帮助别人。故选 D。
25.推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Due to a decrease in average rainfall and an increase in severe droughts (干 旱), approximately 75% of Tunisia’s agricultural lands are currently at risk of desertification.(由于平均降雨量的减 少和严重干旱的增加， 突尼斯大约 75%的农业用地目前面临荒漠化的风险。 ) ”可知， 平均降雨量的减少和
干旱的增加是农业用地荒漠化的主要原因。故选 C。
26.推理判断题。根据文章第三段“In 2012, Toumi took a decisive step towards realizing her dream of fighting
desertification. She moved to Tunisia and set up a program called Acacias for All, with the aim of putting her

Words are powerful: they have the ability to lift up the lowest of the low or tear down the highest of the high. But a strong argument could be made that our body language is even more influential. The most effective communication occurs when the importance of body language in teaching is acknowledged. When these nonverbal signals are
working together with our words, it creates communication synergy.
It has been suggested that two-thirds ofour communication is nonverbal. Positive body language in a classroom setting has the ability to motivate, inspire and engage. It can not only give you the confidence you need to teach but can also inform your students that you actually know what you’re talking about. It can even make your students feel
safe and confident enough to participate in the lessons more frequently.
Most leadership positions encourage body language that shows power and confidence. Signals include standing tall, gesturing only from the waist up, head straight and forward, and talking while pointing to others, which are obvious ways to exercise control. But when teaching, the nonverbal signals need to show a different type of leader. These signals convey warmth and understanding, reminding your students that you are approachable and there to help
them grow. For example, fix your eyes on one student for about 15-30 seconds before changing to another student,
which is one of the best ways to keep students’ focus. Nod your head. Give a thumbs up—maybe two! Show them
they are on the right path and they will be more confident in continuing down it.
The importance of body language can never be ignored. It’s desirable that you should advocate using body language in teaching and pay attention to the use rule and using skills. You should use right, natural and clear body language. It’s crucial that you create good classroom atmosphere, inspire students’ imagination and grasp students’
mood.
28. Which has a similar meaning as the underlined word “synergy” in Paragraph 1
A. Energy loss. B. Confusing result.
C. Individual effect. D. Combined power.
29. What do most leadership positions mainly express
A. Warmth. B. Control.
C. Understanding. D. Encouragement.
30. What’s the purpose of the last paragraph
A. To explain a theory. B. To make a description.
C. To give suggestions. D. To summarize a debate.
31. What is the text mainly talking about
A. The importance of teacher’s body language.
B. The effective ways of good communication.
C. The value of teacher-student communication.
D. The prospect of students’ nonverbal learning.
【答案】28.D 29.B 30.C 31.A
【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了教师肢体语言的重要性。
28.词句猜测题。根据划线词前半句“When these nonverbal signals are working together with our words, (当这些 非语言信号与我们的语言一起工作时) ”可知，肢体语言和语言一起工作时，会产生沟通协同作用。由此推
知，划线词 synergy 为“协同作用 ”之意。故选 D。
29.细节理解题。根据第三段“Most leadership positions encourage body language that shows power and
confidence. Signals include standing tall, gesturing only from the waist up, head straight and forward, and talking while pointing to others, which are obvious ways to exercise control. (大多数领导职位都鼓励展示权力和自信的 肢体语言。信号包括站得笔直，只做腰部以上的手势，头伸直向前，说话时指着别人，这些都是明显的控
制方式) ”可知，大多数领导职位主要表现为控制。故选 B。
30.推理判断题。根据最后一段“The importance of body language can never be ignored. It’s desirable that you should advocate using body language in teaching and pay attention to the use rule and using skills. You should use
right, natural and clear body language. It’s crucial that you create good classroom atmosphere, inspire students’
imagination and grasp students’ mood. (肢体语言的重要性不容忽视。在教学中提倡使用肢体语言， 注意使用规
则和技巧是可取的。你应该使用正确、自然、清晰的肢体语言。营造良好的课堂氛围，激发学生的想象力， 把握学生的情绪至关重要) ”可推断，最后一段的目的是给出建议，建议教师在教学中使用肢体语言。故选
C。
31.主旨大意题。根据第一段“The most effective communication occurs when the importance of body language in teaching is acknowledged. (当认识到肢体语言在教学中的重要性时，就会产生最有效的沟通) ”和最后一段 “The importance of body language can never be ignored.(肢体语言的重要性不容忽视) ”及全文可知， 文章主要
介绍了教师肢体语言的重要性。故选 A。

The design of the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic torch (火炬) was shown on July 25, marking almost a
year until the opening ceremony (典礼) of the Paris Olympic Games.
The torch, measuring 70 centimeters and weighing 3.3 pounds, is made with lightweight radiant steel and is
known for its champagne color, a color of French white wine.
Mathieu Lehanneur, the designer of the torch said that he drew inspiration from three Paris 2024 symbols-equality, water and peacefulness. Equality is shown by perfect balance. Peacefulness is shown by the gentleness of the curves. The lower half features a relief pattern that copies the movement of the River Seine, along
which the opening ceremony will be held.
It will be the first torch in the history of the Games to be used for both the Olympics and Paralympics. Past designs have shared similarities but are different in shape and color. This is part of the organizing committee’splan to “build bridges between the Olympic and Paralympic Games”, Paris 2024’s president Tony Estanguet said in a
statement.
Equality means putting the same ambition into organising the Paralympic Games as the Olympic Games.
Following on from the medals to the mascots, the Olympic and Paralympic Games will share the same torch design.
Equality in the Paris 2024 project is also reflected in the strong promise to equality in the Olympic Games: For the first time in the history of the Games, as many women as men will take part in the competitions. Reflecting this desire for peace, the torch, with its curves and rounded lines, is filled with gentleness. The design of the torch
delivers generosity and unity.
“Such a project is a dream for a designer, because it’s a project that connects something symbolic and technical
in one, for a big moment,” Lehanneur said.
32. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The shape of the torch.
B. The inspiration of the torch.
C. The ceremony of the Games.
D. The location of the opening ceremony.
33. What is special about the torch
A. It is very heavy.
B. It is perfect in shape.
C. It copies the movement of the River Seine
D. It will be used in the Olympics and Paralympics
34. What can we infer from what Lehanneur said in the last paragraph
A. He had a passion for sports.
B. He wanted to be a well-known designer.
C. He felt a sense of achievement and pride.
D. He wished to connect everything together.
35. What can be the best title for the text
A. A designer realized his dream B. Inspiration of the 2024 Games
C. Paris 2024 showed torch design D. Equality, water and peacefulne

Peacefulness is shown by the gentleness of the curves. The lower half features a relief pattern that copies the movement of the River Seine, along which the opening ceremony will be held.(火炬设计师 Mathieu Lehanneur 表示，他的灵感来 自 2024 年巴黎奥运会的三个象征——平等、水和和平。完美的平衡是平等的表现。柔和的曲线显示出宁静。 下半部分的浮雕图案模仿了塞纳河的运动，开幕式将沿着塞纳河举行) ”可知，本段主要讲述了巴黎奥运火

It hasn’t been an easy year for the privacy of travelers，at least so far. Data leaks，surveillance（监视） worries and those troublesome cameras in airplane seat backs and hotel rooms are enough to make passengers anxious. 36 Fortunately，there are ways to safeguard your privacy on land and in the air. These tips can help you deal with
these troubles.
37 “It’s not clever to declare on Facebook that you’re traveling to somewhere ，reminding a wide range of people that your property is sitting empty ， ”says Danny McLoughlin. “That puts your security at risk.” Wait
until you return to start posting vacation photos.
Some homeowners renting their residences may install security cameras. Travelers should find out if the hosts are required to disclose the presence of surveillance devices. If the rental comes with cameras ，ensure they
aren’t in a sensitive area by conducting a careful sweep. 38
Although you can’t control how a hotel or airline handles or mishandles your data ，you can take reasonable steps to ensure the information it has won’t get you into trouble. 39 But some of the worst data leaks happen when you’re staying at a hotel. For example ，a hotel clerk sometimes asks for your name and then announces your room number after you’ve checked in. You’re better off handing the employee your ID when he or she asks for your name and asking him/her to write your room number on a piece of paper. Why 40 Just to be sure，
never leave the customer copy behind. You can destroy it later ，but keep it under your control.
A. It’s never been better.
B. Perhaps they should be.
C. Travelers say they’re taking privacy seriously.
D. Never broadcast your journey on social media.
E. There are other people on the other side of the wall.
F. Some travelers only offer the bare minimum ，such as a P. O. Box instead of a home address.
G. Report anything doubtful to the host immediately and if you don’t like what you hear ，leave.
【答案】36.B 37.D 38.G 39.F 40.E

37.根据下文提到的“在Facebook 上宣布你要去某个地方旅行， 提醒很多人你的房子是空的， 这并不聪明”可
知， D 项“Never broadcast your journey on social media.”符合语境。
38.根据上文提到的“如果房主配备了摄像头， 则应进行仔细的扫描， 确保摄像头不在敏感区域”可知， G 项“如
果有任何可疑之处，请立即向房主报告，如果你不喜欢你听到的， 离开”符合语境。
39.根据上文提到的“虽然你无法控制酒店或航空公司如何处理或错误处理你的数据， 但你可以采取合理的措 施，以确保这些信息不会给你带来麻烦”可知，F 项“有些旅客只提供最低限度的信息，如邮箱而不是家庭
住址”可承接上文。

of the wall.”正好回答了为什么写下来这个问题。

第二节读后续写（满分 25 分）
阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
Dad and Madison were walking through the party store, gathering decorations for Madison’s upcoming
birthday party.
“But I don’t want to invite Lucy Gilbert! I don’t like her!”
“Madison, you are being unreasonable. If every girl in your class is invited to a party but you, you’ll feel left out.
It would be a big mistake not to invite Lucy to the party. ”“She never even talks to me! ”
Dad sighed and moved down the aisle ( 走廊). “Lucy is a new girl in class. She just moved here a little over a month ago. Think about how that must feel. She doesn’t know one single person in the school. She left all of her old friends behind and now she has to try to make new friends. Your party will be a great chance for her to get to know
everyone. ”
“No, it won’t. She will probably sit in the corner and not talk to anyone. Everyday at lunch she sits all by herself.
She wants to eat alone!" Madison shrugged and rolled her eyes (翻白眼).
“Madison, I’m done discussing this. You will invite every girl in your class, including Lucy Gilbert!"
On Saturday morning, the family blew up balloons and decorated the house cheerfully. Madison was dressed beautifully for the day, wearing her new blue dress. It was not typical of her to dress herself like this. She usually
wore sports clothes because she loved to be outside riding her horse Star with a lead rope (缰绳).
Madison greeted her friends at the doorstep, picturing (想象)various presents her friends would bring her. In the meanwhile, she was wondering whether Lucy would ruin the party if she came. Anyhow, all the girls she invited
came finally, including Lucy. The girls had a fantastic time by singing and dancing while Lucy sat in the corner
silently alone. Later, all the girls gathered around the table as Madison opened her presents. Opening them one by
one, Madison thanked her friends, with a bright smile on her face.

【答案】高分范文
Lucy’s present was the very last to be opened. Worrying that it would ruin the party, Madison grabbed the present reluctantly. As soon as she opened the box, her eyes widened in surprise——inside was a delicately hand-made lead rope! Amazed at its beauty, Madison pulled it out of the box. “It’s a lead rope for your horse Star. I made it by myself!”Lucy added, “I heard you talking about your horse at school. That’s when I got the idea of making
you a lead rope. ”
Deeply moved by what she said, Madison held the lead rope tightly in her hands. It was the most beautiful birthday present she ever received. She suddenly felt so guilty because she had been so mean to Lucy. Feeling a mixture of regret and gratitude, she blinked back her tears and said, “Thanks so much for this lead rope. I love it! Would you like to join us and be our friends ” Lucy nodded cheerfully——Madison put her arm around Luey’s shoulders, both smiling. With applause and laughter echoing through the house, Lucy joined the other girls to enjoy
the party.
