See the Exhibitions on View Just for You
Bernd & Hilla Becher
The famous German couple Bernd and Hilla Becher (1931-2007; 1934-2015) changed the course of late 20th-century photography. Working as a rare like-minded and professional couple, they focused on a single subject: the disappearing industrial architecture of Western Europe and North America that fueled the modern time.
Fictions of Emancipation: Carpeaux Recast
Organized around a single object — the marble sculpture (雕塑) Why Born Enslaved! By French sculptor Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux — Fictions of Emancipation: Carpeaux Recast is the first exhibition in the Metropolitan Museum of Art to examine Western sculpture in relation to the histories of Western slavery, colonialism, and empire.
Chroma: Ancient Sculpture in Color
Ancient Greek and Roman sculpture was once colorful, vividly painted and richly decorated. Chroma: Ancient Sculpture in Color tells the colorful backstory of polychromy — meaning “many colors” in Greek — and presents new discoveries of surviving ancient color on artworks in the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s world-class collection.
Hear Me Now: The Black Potters of Old Edgefield, South Carolina
Focusing on the work of African American potters (陶工) in the 19th-century American South — in dialogue with contemporary artistic responses — the exhibition presents approximately 50 objects from Old Edgefield District, South Carolina, a center of stoneware production in the decades before the Civil War.

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.
4. What do the underlined words “hit home for me” mean in paragraph 2
A. Provided shelter for me. B. Became very clear to me.
C. Took the pressure off me. D. Worked quite well on me.
5. Why did the kid poke the storybook
A. He took it for a tablet computer. B. He disliked the colorful pictures.
C. He was angry with his grandpa. D. He wanted to read it by himself.
6. What does the author think of himself
A. Socially ambitious. B. Physically attractive.
C. Financially independent. D. Digitally competent.
7 What can we learn about the author as a journalist
A. He lacks experience in his job. B. He seldom appears on television.
C. He manages a video department. D. He often interviews internet stars.
C
It’s been nearly two decades since the traditional clothing style Hanfu first started to reemerge in China. Since then it has gone from a small cultural movement celebrating an ancient fashion to a trend that is booming on social media, having been adopted by China’s Generation Z as a means of connecting with their past. Instead of following other cultures blindly, Generation Z now have different opinions about what trend is by promoting local culture while having an objective view of exotic cultural products.
The new tastes of Generation Z—young people born after 1995—are well represented on Bilibili. In the recent New Year’s Eve gala presented by Bilibili, it attracted more than 100 million views within 48 hours with a colourful set of programmes ranging from Peking Opera to classical Chinese cartoons. The same is also true of movie industry. Last year, for the first time, the top 10 most viewed films in China were all domestic films, while the ticket sales for imported films have dropped to only 16.28 percent.
”Generation Z grew up with the rapid development of China and under good economic conditions. With the development of the Chinese Internet industry, they have more access to diverse international information and culture, which bring them a much broader vision and makes them more open and confident in analyzing foreign culture. Apart from taking pride in China’s rapid development, this generation also pursues individuality and values devotion to the country,“ Professor Zhang Yiwu said.
He also noted that the popular rock and punk culture pursued by the 70s and 80s generation is more of a challenge against real life and local culture. Some people who were born in the 1970s and 1980s did not grow up in the Internet age—they experienced the transformation of China going from poor to rich first-hand. This kind of longing and admiration of the West came from a lack of confidence.
However, Generation Z now have the confidence to look at Western culture with equal status. This kind of cultural confidence will result in China being more active and creative in its development on the international stage in the future.
8. What does the underlined word ”exotic“ in Paragraph 1 mean
A. Foreign. B. Fashionable. C. Traditional. D. Elegant.
9. Why is Bilibili mentioned in Paragraph 2
A. To confirm the rise of new media.
B. To promote Chinese Internet industry.
C To highlight the popularity of domestic art.
D. To show the popularity of New Year’s Eve gala.
10. What do we know about Generation Z from the passage
A. They have a stronger cultural identity.
B. They are longing for cultural diversity.
C. They have made China develop rapidly.
D. They are more fond of foreign culture.
11. What can be a suitable title for the passage
A. Confident China, Better Future
B. China’s Progress Results in Cultural Confidence
C. China’s New Generation Redefine Local Culture as Trendy
D. Hanfu Style, Connector of Ancient Fashion and Modern Trend
D
Rain is vital to life on Earth. However, rain isn’t just made of water anymore—it’s partly made of plastic.
Millions of tiny pieces of plastic, called microplastics, are wandering around Earth’s atmosphere and traveling across entire continents, according to a study published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences on April 12. Another study, published in the journal Science in June 2020, has revealed that every year more than 1,000 tons of the particles (颗粒)—equivalent to over 120 million plastic bottles—fall in rain.
Microplastics are plastic particles less than 5 millimeters in diameter (直径) and come from a number of sources. Plastic bags and bottles released into the environment break down into smaller and smaller bits. Some microplastics are manufactured deliberately to provide abrasion (研磨) in a host of products, such as toothpaste and cleansers, according to the Daily Mail. Another major source is your washing machine. When you wash synthetic (合成的) clothing, tiny microfibers get flushed (冲掉) away with the wastewater. Even though the water is treated by a wastewater plant, the microplastics remain, and they are released into the sea, according to American magazine Wired.
Plastic rain may remind people of acid rain, but the former is far more widespread and harder to deal with. The tiny particles, too small to be seen with the naked eye, are collected by the wind from the ground. They are so light that they stay in the air to be blown around the globe. As they climb into the atmosphere, they are thought to act as nuclei (核心) around which water vapor (水蒸气) condenses (凝结) to form clouds. Some of the dust falls back to land in dry conditions, while the rest comes down as rain, according to the Daily Mail.
Microplastics have been found everywhere you can imagine. From fish and frogs to mice and mosquitoes, their bodies have been found, on average, to contain 40 pieces of microplastic, reported Daily Mail. As the top of the food chain, humans are exposed to microplastics, too. “We live on a ball inside a bubble,” microplastic researcher Steve Allen at University of Strathclyde, Scotland, told Wired. “There are no borders, there are no edges. It (plastic rain) raining on the land and then getting blown back up into the air again, to move somewhere else. There’s no stopping it once it’s out.”
12. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A. How microplastics should be handled. B. How microplastics are used widely.
C. How microplastics pollute water. D. How microplastics come into being.
13. What do we know about microplastics
A. They are light and can be easily dealt with.
B. They result in both acid rain and plastic rain.
C. They have a diameter of at least 5 millimeters.
D. They have nearly affected the whole food chain.
14. What do Steve Allen’s words mean in the last paragraph
A. No place is safe from microplastic pollution.
B. The atmosphere possesses the capacity to self-cleanse.
C. Countries should work together to fight plastic pollution.
D. It is important to remove microplastics somewhere else.
15. What’s the main purpose of the article
A. To compare acid rain and plastic rain.
B. To warn people of the dangers of microplastics.
C. To call on people to reduce using plastic products.
D. To introduce the sources and effects of microplastics.

I looked over my grandma’s shoulder as she sewed pieces of cloth together. The two pieces became one faster than I’d imagined. The colors, however, looked ugly when put together and none of the patterns matched. All the patches (补丁) on this blanket seemed to disagree.
“Grandma, that’s the ugliest quilt (棉被) I’ve ever seen.”
“Oh, sweetie, it’s warm and beautiful,” said Grandma, pointing to a pile of crazy patterned shirts and suits.“I can take these old clothes that you and I will never wear again and turn them into something useful and good. It’s not the quilt’s appearance but the love that sews it together that makes it beautiful. This quilt will keep you warm on a cold night like tonight. And I know that for a fact.” Grandma put her hand on my shoulder, “Not everyone is as lucky as we are. Here, put on your coat. We’ll get a second opinion about how ugly my quilts are.”
Grandma folded a finished quilt and tucked it into a shopping bag. Afterwards, we got in the car and drove downtown. The white snow turned grayer as we got to the city. Eventually, Grandma stopped at a dark alley (胡同) and we got out of the car. The terrible smell of rotting garbage made me feel sick. Grandma took my hand and led me to the street lamp. I could see the snow shining in the light.
Grandma paused. “There’s usually somebody down this alley. It’s quiet and out of the wind—a good place to stay on cold nights. A nice warm quilt might make it even better.”
The dark swallowed Grandma and I as we stepped deep into the alley. The pavement was broken and missing in spots. Chicken bones and dirt y boxes littered their way. And Grandma’s shoes made a loud sound with each step. Feeling scared, I squeezed Grandma’s hand. Grandma squeezed my hand back. “It’s OK,” she smiled.
“Who’s there ” shouted a voice out of the darkness.
“I have a nice warm quilt, if you want it,” said Grandma. After a while, a lady walked out of the darkness. Grandma opened the shopping bag and pulled out the multicolored quilt. “That’s pretty and it looks warm,” the lady screamed and took the quilt, her eyes filled with tears of gratitude. As we left, I looked back and saw the lady holding the quilt tightly. “You’re right, Grandma. That is a beautiful quilt.” On our ride back home, the lady’s grateful words were still ringing in my ears.
注意：
1.续写词数应为75词左右：
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Back home, I found a worn-out quilt by accident in a cupboard.

【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者曾经是一名记者，在春节期间，作者给孙子拿了一本儿童读物，孙子却以为是平板电脑，不停地戳书。
【4题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“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.”以及画线词后文“as I was sitting with my 2-year-old grandson on a sofa over the Spring Festival holiday.”可知，作者是记者，生活在一个讲故事的新时代，有许多新的多媒体工具。许多年轻人甚至没有意识到它是新的。对他们来说，这很正常。而这在春节假期，作者和两岁的孙子坐在沙发上，尤其清楚认识到了这一点。故画线词意思是“我很清楚”。故选B。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“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.(事实上，他对书本并不熟悉。他的父亲经常用一台装有彩色图片的平板电脑逗他开心，当你戳它们的时候，这些图片就会变得栩栩如生。他认为我的故事书就是那样的)”可知，那孩子戳故事书是因为他把它当成了平板电脑。故选A。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中“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. (我可能老了，但从数字角度来说，我还没有毫无希望的挑战。我编辑视频，制作音频。我用移动支付。我甚至建立了网站)”可知，作者认为自己懂数码技术。故选D。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“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.(然而，在我的新媒体体验中有一个明显的差距：我很少在镜头前呆着，因为我的脸是为电台而生的)”可知，作者作为记者他很少上电视。故选B。

It’s been nearly two decades since the traditional clothing style Hanfu first started to reemerge in China. Since then it has gone from a small cultural movement celebrating an ancient fashion to a trend that is booming on social media having been adopted by China’s Generation Z as a means of connecting with their past. Instead of following other cultures blindly, Generation Z now have different opinions about what trend is by promoting local culture while having an objective view of exotic cultural products.
The new tastes of Generation Z—young people born after 1995—are well represented on Bilibili. In the recent New Year’s Eve gala presented by Bilibili, it attracted more than 100 million views within 48 hours with a colourful set of programmes ranging from Peking Opera to classical Chinese cartoons. The same is also true of movie industry. Last year, for the first time, the top 10 most viewed films in China were all domestic films, while the ticket sales for imported films have dropped to only 16.28 percent.
”Generation Z grew up with the rapid development of China and under good economic conditions. With the development of the Chinese Internet industry, they have more access to diverse international information and culture, which bring them a much broader vision and makes them more open and confident in analyzing foreign culture. Apart from taking pride in China’s rapid development, this generation also pursues individuality and values devotion to the country,“ Professor Zhang Yiwu said.
He also noted that the popular rock and punk culture pursued by the 70s and 80s generation is more of a challenge against real life and local culture. Some people who were born in the 1970s and 1980s did not grow up in the Internet age—they experienced the transformation of China going from poor to rich first-hand. This kind of longing and admiration of the West came from a lack of confidence.
However, Generation Z now have the confidence to look at Western culture with equal status. This kind of cultural confidence will result in China being more active and creative in its development on the international stage in the future.
8. What does the underlined word ”exotic“ in Paragraph 1 mean
A. Foreign. B. Fashionable. C. Traditional. D. Elegant.
9. Why is Bilibili mentioned in Paragraph 2
A. To confirm the rise of new media.
B. To promote Chinese Internet industry.
C. To highlight the popularity of domestic art.
D. To show the popularity of New Year’s Eve gala.
10. What do we know about Generation Z from the passage
A. They have a stronger cultural identity.
B. They are longing for cultural diversity.
C. They have made China develop rapidly.
D. They are more fond of foreign culture.
11. What can be a suitable title for the passage
A. Confident China, Better Future
B. China’s Progress Results in Cultural Confidence
C. China’s New Generation Redefine Local Culture as Trendy
D. Hanfu Style, Connector of Ancient Fashion and Modern Trend

Rain is vital to life on Earth. However, rain isn’t just made of water anymore—it’s partly made of plastic.
Millions of tiny pieces of plastic, called microplastics, are wandering around Earth’s atmosphere and traveling across entire continents, according to a study published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences on April 12. Another study, published in the journal Science in June 2020, has revealed that every year more than 1,000 tons of the particles (颗粒)—equivalent to over 120 million plastic bottles—fall in rain.
Microplastics are plastic particles less than 5 millimeters in diameter (直径) and come from a number of sources. Plastic bags and bottles released into the environment break down into smaller and smaller bits. Some microplastics are manufactured deliberately to provide abrasion (研磨) in a host of products, such as toothpaste and cleansers, according to the Daily Mail. Another major source is your washing machine. When you wash synthetic (合成的) clothing, tiny microfibers get flushed (冲掉) away with the wastewater. Even though the water is treated by a wastewater plant, the microplastics remain, and they are released into the sea, according to American magazine Wired.
Plastic rain may remind people of acid rain, but the former is far more widespread and harder to deal with. The tiny particles, too small to be seen with the naked eye, are collected by the wind from the ground. They are so light that they stay in the air to be blown around the globe. As they climb into the atmosphere, they are thought to act as nuclei (核心) around which water vapor (水蒸气) condenses (凝结) to form clouds. Some of the dust falls back to land in dry conditions, while the rest comes down as rain, according to the Daily Mail.
Microplastics have been found everywhere you can imagine. From fish and frogs to mice and mosquitoes, their bodies have been found, on average, to contain 40 pieces of microplastic, reported Daily Mail. As the top of the food chain, humans are exposed to microplastics, too. “We live on a ball inside a bubble,” microplastic researcher Steve Allen at University of Strathclyde, Scotland, told Wired. “There are no borders, there are no edges. It (plastic rain) raining on the land and then getting blown back up into the air again, to move somewhere else. There’s no stopping it once it’s out.”
12. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A. How microplastics should be handled. B. How microplastics are used widely.
C. How microplastics pollute water. D. How microplastics come into being.
13. What do we know about microplastics
A. They are light and can be easily dealt with.
B. They result in both acid rain and plastic rain.
C. They have a diameter of at least 5 millimeters.
D. They have nearly affected the whole food chain.
14. What do Steve Allen’s words mean in the last paragraph
A. No place is safe from microplastic pollution.
B. The atmosphere possesses the capacity to self-cleanse.
C. Countries should work together to fight plastic pollution.
D. It is important to remove microplastics somewhere else.
15. What’s the main purpose of the article
A. To compare acid rain and plastic rain.
B. To warn people of the dangers of microplastics.
C. To call on people to reduce using plastic products.
D. To introduce the sources and effects of microplastics.
【答案】12. D 13. D 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是说明文，介绍了微塑料无处不在，并分析它的来源和它对生物造成的影响。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三自然段主题句“Microplastics are plastic particles less than 5 millimeters in diameter (直径) and come from a number of sources. (微塑料是指直径小于5毫米的塑料颗粒，有多种来源)”和下文提到的三种微塑料来源可推知，本段主要讲微塑料是怎么形成的。故选D项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五自然段“Microplastics have been found everywhere you can imagine. From fish and frogs to mice and mosquitoes, their bodies have been found, on average, to contain 40 pieces of microplastic, reported Daily Mail. As the top of the food chain, humans are exposed to microplastics, too. (你能想象到的所有地方都有微塑料。据英国《每日邮报》报道，从鱼、青蛙到老鼠和蚊子，人们发现它们的尸体平均含有40片微塑料。作为食物链的顶端，人类也暴露在微塑料中)”可知，微塑料存在于整个生物食物链中。故选D项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五自然段“‘We live on a ball inside a bubble, ’ microplastic researcher Steve Allen at University of Strathclyde, Scotland, told Wired. ‘There are no borders, there are no edges. It (plastic rain) raining on the land and then getting blown back up into the air again, to move somewhere else. There’s no stopping it once it’s out. ’(‘我们生活在一个气泡里的球上，’苏格兰斯特拉斯克莱德大学的微塑料研究员史蒂夫·艾伦告诉《连线》杂志。‘没有边界，没有边缘。它(塑料雨)落在地上，然后又被吹回到空中，转移到其他地方。它一旦出现就无法阻止了。’)” Steve Allen的话可推知，他认为微塑料造成的污染无法逃避，没有安全的地方。故选A项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知，本文用雨引出微塑料无处不在这一话题，第三自然段分析了微塑料的三个来源，四五自然段介绍它对生物的影响。由此可知，本文的主要目的是介绍微塑料的来源和影响。故选D项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了感恩能够改善我们的效率和做事结果的原因。
16题详解】
根据前文“If I could offer you a magic drug that would make you happier, more optimistic and more productive, and cost nothing and will require very little effort, would you be interested Of course you would!(如果我能给你一种神奇的药物，让你更快乐、更乐观、更有效率，而且不需要花费任何费用，也不需要付出任何努力，你会感兴趣吗？你当然会的！)”和后文“Besides, gratitude requires little time and no money.(此外，感恩只需要很少的时间和金钱)”可知，空处应讲述感恩有助于让人更快乐、更乐观，D项“更多的感恩往往会让我们更加快乐和乐观。”符合题意，选项中的“more joyful and more optimistic”对应前面的“happier, more optimistic”，“grateful”对应后面的“gratitude”。故选D。
【17题详解】
空处为本段的主旨句，根据后文“Does their appreciation positively impact your relation with them Of course it does!(他们的感激对你和他们的关系有积极的影响吗？当然有！)”可知，本段讲述了感恩对关系的有益影响，所以B项“感恩可以改善人际关系”符合题意。故选B。
【18题详解】
前文“We learn the importance of saying ‘thank you’ as little children. This childhood lesson is extremely of great use.(我们从小就知道说‘谢谢’的重要性。这个童年的教训非常有用)”讲述了我们从小接受的感恩教育是有用的，后文“How do you feel about them Does their appreciation positively impact your relation with them (你觉得他们怎么样？他们的感激对你和他们的关系有积极的影响吗？)”提到了那些感激你的人和你之间的关系，them为空处提到的内容，指代的是那些感激你的人，所以E项“想想你认识的那些最感激你的人”符合题意。故选E。
【19题详解】
本段首句“Gratitude improves problem solving skills.(感恩可以提高解决问题的能力)”表明本段描述感恩可以提高解决问题的能力，后文“However, when we think about what we are grateful for, we open our minds up to new possibilities and connections.(然而，当我们想到我们感激的东西时，我们就打开了新的可能性和联系)”与空处是转折关系，表明感恩有助于创造新的可能性和联系，所以空处应讲述解决问题时常遇到的问题，F项“我们常常以一种非常无聊或疲惫的视角来看待解决问题。”符合题意。故选F。
【20题详解】
本段首句“Gratitude helps us learn.(感恩帮助我们学习)”表明本段描述感恩帮助学习，前文“Every dark cloud has a silver lining. (黑暗中总有一线光明)”提到黑暗中总有一线光明，与C项“每个问题的背后都蕴藏着机会。”构成类比，说明我们可以通过解决问题进行学习，引出后文“Being grateful for our situation, even if we don’t like everything about it, allows us to be thankful for opportunity to learn something new.(对我们的处境心存感激，即使我们并不喜欢它的一切，也会让我们对学习新东西的机会心存感激)”。故选C。

【答案】范文
Good morning everyone. I'm Lihua.
Today, I’d like to talk about the importance of environmental protection and energy conservation in our school. Sadly, we often observe various forms of waste on campus. From the water running constantly in the sink to the paper carelessly discarded, these seemingly insignificant actions contribute significantly to environmental degradation.
As students, we have a duty to make a difference. Simple habits like turning off the lights and water when not in use and recycling paper and plastic, can make a huge impact. Moreover, we should spread awareness among our peers.
Remember, every little bit counts, and it starts with each one of us.
Thank you.

57. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写一段，使之构成一篇完整短文。
I looked over my grandma’s shoulder as she sewed pieces of cloth together. The two pieces became one faster than I’d imagined. The colors, however, looked ugly when put together and none of the patterns matched. All the patches (补丁) on this blanket seemed to disagree.
“Grandma, that’s the ugliest quilt (棉被) I’ve ever seen.”
“Oh, sweetie, it’s warm and beautiful,” said Grandma, pointing to a pile of crazy patterned shirts and suits.“I can take these old clothes that you and I will never wear again and turn them into something useful and good. It’s not the quilt’s appearance but the love that sews it together that makes it beautiful. This quilt will keep you warm on a cold night like tonight. And I know that for a fact.” Grandma put her hand on my shoulder, “Not everyone is as lucky as we are. Here, put on your coat. We’ll get a second opinion about how ugly my quilts are.”
Grandma folded a finished quilt and tucked it into a shopping bag. Afterwards, we got in the car and drove downtown. The white snow turned grayer as we got to the city. Eventually, Grandma stopped at a dark alley (胡同) and we got out of the car. The terrible smell of rotting garbage made me feel sick. Grandma took my hand and led me to the street lamp. I could see the snow shining in the light.
Grandma paused. “There’s usually somebody down this alley. It’s quiet and out of the wind—a good place to stay on cold nights. A nice warm quilt might make it even better.”
The dark swallowed Grandma and I as we stepped deep into the alley. The pavement was broken and missing in spots. Chicken bones and dirt y boxes littered their way. And Grandma’s shoes made a loud sound with each step. Feeling scared, I squeezed Grandma’s hand. Grandma squeezed my hand back. “It’s OK,” she smiled.
“Who’s there ” shouted a voice out of the darkness.
“I have a nice warm quilt, if you want it,” said Grandma. After a while, a lady walked out of the darkness. Grandma opened the shopping bag and pulled out the multicolored quilt. “That’s pretty and it looks warm,” the lady screamed and took the quilt, her eyes filled with tears of gratitude. As we left, I looked back and saw the lady holding the quilt tightly. “You’re right, Grandma. That is a beautiful quilt.” On our ride back home, the lady’s grateful words were still ringing in my ears.

【答案】范文
Back home, I found a worn-out quilt by accident in a cupboard. I asked Grandma curiously, Grandma, why is there a quilt here After a moment of silence, Grandma began to share her own story. On a freezing night decades ago, as a poor young woman sleeping in the same alley, Grandma was offered a quilt, which warmed her up. She was determined to pass the love forward. That’s why Grandma sewed the old clothes together and made quilts for those in need. After hearing the story, I gave Grandma the biggest hug ever.
