School was always something I loved because I always enjoyed learning more. I never felt afraid of going to school early in the morning, and I never tried to get out of any work. I stayed after school every chance I got. I did most of the work I could, got the best grades I could, and in the end, I graduated from high school with honors. All my success was because of the teachers I had who helped me, pushed me, and made learning a fun thing to do.
At the beginning of the school year, I had a lot of trouble leaving my mom in the mornings, but Mrs. Trainer always sat with me, talked with me, and helped me feel OK without my mom. She was understanding, kind, and always made the classroom a comfortable place. Mrs. Trainer also sat down and helped me learn; I was, and still am, the worst speller, but she tried her hardest to help me.
The second was my senior high school English teacher, Mr. Stonerock. Mr. Stonerock was able to make English and writing fun, especially when we had eight-page papers to hand in. Some of my favorite high school memories were in his classes. Mr. Stonerock also taught my class APA format (格式) which to me is invaluable. I use it every day in my life. He put up with so many shenanigans (恶作剧) from my classmates and me and always did it with a smile.
My point to all of this is that there are amazing and caring teachers out there whether they teach college level classes, high school level classes, or primary level classes. I have had more influential teachers than I can count. I am still in touch with some of my high school teachers, who give me life advice and guide me. Teachers are invaluable resources and no one can take their place.
4. Which of the following can best describe the author as a student
A. Creative and proud. B. Confident and polite.
C. Kind-hearted and honest. D. Hard-working and excellent.
5. How did Mrs. Trainer help the author
A. By teaching him like a mother.
B. By helping him to be the best speller.
C. By asking him easy questions in class.
D. By learning about his habits from his mother.
6. What is the most useful skill the author learnt from Mr. Stonerock
A. How to finish papers quickly.
B. How to learn English in a fun way.
C. How to use APA format correctly.
D. How to get on well with classmates.
7. What is the purpose of this text
A. To show how to be a good teacher.
B. To stress teachers’ duties and responsibilities.
C. To stress teachers’ importance to the author.
D. To share the author’s experience as a teacher.
C
In my early teens, I was once given a film camera as a gift . On receiving it, I jumped on my bike, headed to Wimbledon Common and took photos, just for me: photos of trees and wildlife. I was out all day. On my way home I spotted a tree lit up by street lighting and tried to capture its beauty. Rushing home, I put the spent film in a special little envelope and sent it off to a photography store, desperate to see how it would come out. I took many photos then and loved the fact that when you processed your film you got back colour photos which froze the precious moments, gently encouraging the hobby and the payments for processing.
As I grew into adulthood, that simple, deep happiness gradually faded away. One weekend when I was busy answering the work calls, my eyes caught a box in the corner of the room. I suddenly felt a sense of sadness. The stress growing over these years had pushed the camera from beside my pillow to the box in the corner. I thought I needed a change.
I took out the camera and dusted it down. It was a great joy that it still worked. I bought new film and took the camera everywhere I went. Now it is always on hand to accompany me on journeys, to allow me time to myself. Even if the day is full and busy, I can seize some moments for myself to take photos, to observe the world around me.
The wall of my room now holds all my camera equipment on display, along with photos I've taken. To me, the room represents how I’ve found happiness: by reconnecting to the younger part of myself I laid aside, by allowing room in my life for pleasure to exist, and by creating an environment that allows opportunities for delight.
8. What did the author think of taking photos as a young boy
A. Inspiring and practical. B. Tiring yet delightful.
C. Exciting and worthwhile. D. Difficult yet engaging.
9. Why did the author stop taking photos according to paragraph 2
A. He wanted to focus on his work. B. He was struck by sudden sorrow.
C. He attempted to behave like an adult. D. He was faced with increasing pressure.
10. What did the author get from picking up his hobby
A. More fun in the daily routine. B. New journeys in the wild.
C. Better skills of observation. D. Different styles of photography.
11. What is the best title for the text
A. Revisiting Lost Childhood Memories B. Appreciating Beauty Behind the Lens
C. Escaping Teenage Sadness with Camera D. Regaining Pleasure Through Photography
D
Some American skateboarders are creating new moves by combining longboarding and dance. This version of the activity is already popular in southern California. It has also become popular in cities like Paris and Seoul.
Reporters from The Associated Press recently spoke with some skaters about the unusual activity. The AP described it as bringing together skating and dance —with a little danger as well. Hannah Dooling told the AP she often joins friends in Santa Monica, Los Angeles, where they enjoy longboard dancing and doing tricks.
Longboards started out as a way for surfers to keep in shape when they were not in the water. They are longer than traditional skateboards. The added length can be more difficult to move with, but many skaters say they can be more graceful on a longboard. Today, skaters use longboards to make sidewalk turns and bomb hills. They also use them for longboard dancing.
Dooling, who is 30 years old, showed off some of her moves during a recent night in an empty parking lot in Santa Monica. She was joined by her 33-year-old friend Yun Huang, Jane Kang and Christie Goodman. Kang and Goodman are both 29. The meetups are supported by the Dancing Foundation. The non-profit group started with assistance from American technology company Google. The organization was started by Achille Brighton, a 39-year-old software engineer.
Longboard dance is still quite young. But Brighton told the AP that it has already spread worldwide—from southern California to Paris to Seoul. He said those places have public squares and a lot of open spaces where people can watch the skaters.
“You don’t need skate parks. You just need roads,” Brighton said. “And because you do it in public, people see it. And they’re like, ‘Oh, that’s kind of cool.’”
“I think one thing that ties together longboarding and longboard dancing is danger. You might miss a step; you might fall; you might get hurt,” he said. “And that’s the exciting bit.”
12. Which is the best description of longboard dance
A. It’s a graceful traditional sport.
B. It’s a combination of skating and dance.
C. It’s mainly popular in southern California.
D. It’s a way for surfers to keep in shape when they were not in the water.
13. Who is the oldest among the four longboard dancers
A. Hannah Dooling. B. Jane Kang. C. Yun Huang. D. Christie Goodman.
14. What does Brighton think of longboard dance
A. Young but popular. B. Cool but costly.
C. Difficult but graceful. D. Dangerous but exciting.
15. How is the passage mainly developed
A. By listing figures. B. By giving examples.
C. By making comparisons. D. By explaining the reasons.

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。
If you had to choose one word to describe Kevin, it might have been “slow”. He didn’t learn his ABCs as fast as other kids. He never came in first in the schoolyard races. However, his smile was brighter than the sun in June; his heart was bigger than the mountain sky. Kevin’s enthusiasm for life was quite infectious.
When Kevin joined the boys’ school basketball team, basketball became the center of his life. At practice, he worked so hard that you’d think he was preparing for the NBA. He liked to stand in a certain place near the free-throw line and shoot at the basket. Patiently, he stood there throwing ball after ball after ball. “Look at me, Coach!” he’d shout at Randy, jumping up and down with the excitement of shooting.
Kevin and his whole team truly loved basketball. But just loving the game didn’t help them win. More balls fell out of the basket than into it, and the boys lost every game that season, except one—the night when it snowed and the other team couldn’t make it to the game.
It was a cold snowing afternoon when their last game came. As the last-place team, they played against the first-place team. The game went pretty much the same as expected, and near the middle of the fourth quarter Kevin’s team stood nearly 30 points behind.
At that point, one of Kevin’s teammates called time-out. As he came to the side, Randy couldn’t imagine why the time-out had been called. “Coach,” said the boy. “This is our last game and I know that Kevin has played in every game, but he’s never made a basket. I think we should let Kevin make a basket.” With the game completely out of reach, the idea seemed reasonable, so the plan was made. When they had the ball again, they passed it to Kevin who was standing in his special place near the free-throw line.
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。
His first shot bounced around but missed.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Finally, the ball took one bounce and went in unexpectedly.

School was always something I loved because I always enjoyed learning more. I never felt afraid of going to school early in the morning, and I never tried to get out of any work. I stayed after school every chance I got. I did most of the work I could, got the best grades I could, and in the end, I graduated from high school with honors. All my success was because of the teachers I had who helped me, pushed me, and made learning a fun thing to do.
At the beginning of the school year, I had a lot of trouble leaving my mom in the mornings, but Mrs. Trainer always sat with me, talked with me, and helped me feel OK without my mom. She was understanding, kind, and always made the classroom a comfortable place. Mrs. Trainer also sat down and helped me learn; I was, and still am, the worst speller, but she tried her hardest to help me.
The second was my senior high school English teacher, Mr. Stonerock. Mr. Stonerock was able to make English and writing fun, especially when we had eight-page papers to hand in. Some of my favorite high school memories were in his classes. Mr. Stonerock also taught my class APA format (格式) which to me is invaluable. I use it every day in my life. He put up with so many shenanigans (恶作剧) from my classmates and me and always did it with a smile.
My point to all of this is that there are amazing and caring teachers out there whether they teach college level classes, high school level classes, or primary level classes. I have had more influential teachers than I can count. I am still in touch with some of my high school teachers, who give me life advice and guide me. Teachers are invaluable resources and no one can take their place.
4. Which of the following can best describe the author as a student
A. Creative and proud. B. Confident and polite.
C. Kind-hearted and honest. D. Hard-working and excellent.
5. How did Mrs. Trainer help the author
A. By teaching him like a mother.
B. By helping him to be the best speller.
C. By asking him easy questions in class.
D. By learning about his habits from his mother.
6. What is the most useful skill the author learnt from Mr. Stonerock
A. How to finish papers quickly.
B. How to learn English in a fun way.
C. How to use APA format correctly.
D. How to get on well with classmates.
7. What is the purpose of this text

D. To share the author’s experience as a teacher.

In my early teens, I was once given a film camera as a gift . On receiving it, I jumped on my bike, headed to Wimbledon Common and took photos, just for me: photos of trees and wildlife. I was out all day. On my way home I spotted a tree lit up by street lighting and tried to capture its beauty. Rushing home, I put the spent film in a special little envelope and sent it off to a photography store, desperate to see how it would come out. I took many photos then and loved the fact that when you processed your film you got back colour photos which froze the precious moments, gently encouraging the hobby and the payments for processing.
As I grew into adulthood, that simple, deep happiness gradually faded away. One weekend when I was busy answering the work calls, my eyes caught a box in the corner of the room. I suddenly felt a sense of sadness. The stress growing over these years had pushed the camera from beside my pillow to the box in the corner. I thought I needed a change.
I took out the camera and dusted it down. It was a great joy that it still worked. I bought new film and took the camera everywhere I went. Now it is always on hand to accompany me on journeys, to allow me time to myself. Even if the day is full and busy, I can seize some moments for myself to take photos, to observe the world around me.
The wall of my room now holds all my camera equipment on display, along with photos I've taken. To me, the room represents how I’ve found happiness: by reconnecting to the younger part of myself I laid aside, by allowing room in my life for pleasure to exist, and by creating an environment that allows opportunities for delight.

【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段中的“To me, the room represents how I’ve found happiness: by reconnecting to the younger part of myself I laid aside, by allowing room in my life for pleasure to exist, and by creating an environment that allows opportunities for delight. (对我来说，这个房间代表了我是如何找到幸福的：通过重新连接我搁置的年轻的自己，通过在我的生活中为快乐留出空间，通过创造一个允许快乐机会的环境。)”可知，文章讲述了作者小时候很喜欢拍照，后来作者的压力越来越大，这使得他放弃了拍照，偶然间作者看到了角落里的照相机，作者重新开始拍照，在繁忙的日程中获得了乐趣。所以D项“Regaining Pleasure Through Photography (通过摄影重新获得乐趣)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选D。

Some American skateboarders are creating new moves by combining longboarding and dance. This version of the activity is already popular in southern California. It has also become popular in cities like Paris and Seoul.
Reporters from The Associated Press recently spoke with some skaters about the unusual activity. The AP described it as bringing together skating and dance —with a little danger as well. Hannah Dooling told the AP she often joins friends in Santa Monica Los Angeles, where they enjoy longboard dancing and doing tricks.
Longboards started out as a way for surfers to keep in shape when they were not in the water. They are longer than traditional skateboards. The added length can be more difficult to move with but many skaters say they can be more graceful on a longboard. Today, skaters use longboards to make sidewalk turns and bomb hills. They also use them for longboard dancing.
Dooling, who is 30 years old, showed off some of her moves during a recent night in an empty parking lot in Santa Monica. She was joined by her 33-year-old friend Yun Huang, Jane Kang and Christie Goodman. Kang and Goodman are both 29. The meetups are supported by the Dancing Foundation. The non-profit group started with assistance from American technology company Google. The organization was started by Achille Brighton, a 39-year-old software engineer.
Longboard dance is still quite young. But Brighton told the AP that it has already spread worldwide—from southern California to Paris to Seoul. He said those places have public squares and a lot of open spaces where people can watch the skaters.
“You don’t need skate parks. You just need roads,” Brighton said. “And because you do it in public, people see it. And they’re like, ‘Oh, that’s kind of cool.’”
“I think one thing that ties together longboarding and longboard dancing is danger. You might miss a step; you might fall; you might get hurt,” he said. “And that’s the exciting bit.”
12. Which is the best description of longboard dance
A. It’s a graceful traditional sport.
B. It’s a combination of skating and dance.
C. It’s mainly popular in southern California.
D. It’s a way for surfers to keep in shape when they were not in the water.
13. Who is the oldest among the four longboard dancers
A. Hannah Dooling. B. Jane Kang. C. Yun Huang. D. Christie Goodman.
14. What does Brighton think of longboard dance
A. Young but popular. B. Cool but costly.
C. Difficult but graceful. D. Dangerous but exciting.
15. How is the passage mainly developed
A. By listing figures. B. By giving examples.
C. By making comparisons. D. By explaining the reasons.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道，主要讲述的是长板舞（Longboarding Dance）这一新兴运动形式的兴起、特点及其在全球范围内的流行。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The AP described it as bringing together skating and dance — with a little danger as well.(美联社将其描述为将滑冰和舞蹈结合在一起，同时也有一点危险。)”可知，长板舞是滑冰和舞蹈的结合。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Dooling, who is 30 years old, showed off some of her moves during a recent night in an empty parking lot in Santa Monica. She was joined by her 33-year-old friend Yun Huang, Jane Kang and Christie Goodman. Kang and Goodman are both 29.(最近的一个晚上，30岁的Dooling在Santa Monica的一个空停车场展示了她的一些动作。和她一起的还有她33岁的朋友Yun Huang、Jane Kang和Christie Goodman。Kang和Goodman都是29岁。)”可知，Yun Huang是这四个人中年龄最大的，故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段““I think one thing that ties together longboarding and longboard dancing is danger. You might miss a step; you might fall; you might get hurt,” he said. “And that’s the exciting bit.”(Brighton说：“我认为把长板和长板舞蹈联系在一起的是危险。你可能会错过一步；你可能会跌倒；你可能会受伤。这就是令人兴奋的地方。”)”可知，在Brighton看来长板舞在给人带来危险的同时也因为危险而让人兴奋。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Hannah Dooling told the AP she often joins friends in Santa Monica, Los Angeles, where they enjoy longboard dancing and doing tricks.(Hannah Dooling告诉美联社，她经常和洛杉矶Santa Monica的朋友们在一起，在那里他们喜欢跳长板舞和变戏法。)”和第四段“Dooling, who is 30 years old, showed off some of her moves during a recent night in an empty parking lot in Santa Monica. She was joined by her 33-year-old friend Yun Huang, Jane Kang and Christie Goodman. Kang and Goodman are both 29.(最近的一个晚上，30岁的Dooling在Santa Monica的一个空停车场展示了她的一些动作。和她一起的还有她33岁的朋友Yun Huang、Jane Kang和Christie Goodman。Kang和Goodman都是29岁。)”可知，本文举了一些玩儿长板舞的实际例子，因此本文主要通过举例来展开。故选B。
第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Helping a stranger can be easier than advising someone we’ve known forever. When friends and family ask for advice, it is more complicated. ____16____ To give better advice, try less fixing and more listening.
____17____ You should stay open if you can. Keep your hands free. Keep your face neutral and try to avoid looks of shock or judgment. If you look like you’re tense or you’re distracted, the person might not open up to you as much as you would want them to.
You can’t always give advice right now. Texts and FaceTime might be immediate, but your advice doesn’t have to be. You can politely explain to someone that you want to give them your full attention when you’re ready. ____18____
You don’t have to fix the problem. People who ask “What should I do ” often want to process a problem themselves. ____19____ A friend’s priorities might not match your own, but that doesn’t mean they’re wrong.
Pay attention to patterns. When you’ve known someone for years, you’re a witness to their patterns and repeated mistakes. Instead of saying, “Ugh, you’ve said this 15, 000 times,” you can ask questions. “What do you think that means ” or “____20____ ” can be a good one when you’re trying to get someone to consider their own cycle.
A. Body language matters.
B. Listen to them carefully.
C. What’s wrong with you
D. What has worked for you before
E. Otherwise, you can do more harm than good.
F. If we don’t get it right, we could hurt someone we love.
G. You’re giving good advice if you can help them get there on their own.
【答案】16. F 17. A 18. E 19. G 20. D
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。当朋友和家人寻求建议时，我们应如何处理，才不会伤害到他们，真正有利于他们解决问题，文章给出了相关的建议。
【16题详解】
根据上文“Helping a stranger can be easier than advising someone we’ve known forever. When friends and family ask for advice, it is more complicated. (帮助一个陌生人可能比建议一个我们认识很久的人更容易。当朋友和家人寻求建议时，情况就复杂多了)”可知，上文指出当朋友和家人向你寻求建议时可能情况比较复杂。下文“To give better advice, try less fixing and more listening. (要给出更好的建议，试着少处理，多倾听。)”，此处给出了解决这个问题的建议。F项“If we don’t get it right, we could hurt someone we love. (如果我们做不好，就会伤害到我们爱的人)”，F项承上启下，其中it呼应上文的情况giving advice to friends and family，而someone we love呼应上文friendsand family，同时因为F项提到的不良后果，顺接下文：针对这一问题给出建议。上下文衔接连贯顺畅。故选F项。
【17题详解】
根据下文“You should stay open if you can. Keep your hands free. Keep your face neutral and try to avoid looks of shock or judgment. If you look like you’re tense or you’re distracted, the person might not open up to you as much as you would want them to. (如果可以的话保持开放的态度。放开你的手。保持面部表情中立，尽量避免露出震惊或评判的表情。如果你看起来很紧张或心不在焉，这个人可能不会像你希望的那样对你敞开心扉。)”可知，本段内容均与身体语言（Body language）相关，故A项“Body language matters. (肢体语言很重要。)”符合语境，为本段的中心句。故选A项。
【18题详解】
上文“You can’t always give advice right now. Texts and FaceTime might be immediate, but your advice doesn’t have to be. You can politely explain to someone that you want to give them your full attention when you’re ready. (你不能总是当时给出建议。短信和FaceTime可能是即时的，但你的建议不一定是即时的。你可以礼貌地向某人解释，当你准备好了，你想给他们全部的注意力。)”可知，当被问及建议时，无需马上给出；E项“Otherwise, you can do more harm than good. (否则，你会弊大于利。)”与上文形成对比关系，指出了如果不这样做的后果，上下文衔接连贯顺畅。故选E项。
【19题详解】
上文“People who ask ‘What should I do ’ often want to process a problem themselves. (那些问‘我该怎么办？’的人经常想自己解决问题。)”，下文“A friend’s priorities might not match your own, but that doesn’t mean they’re wrong. (朋友的优先级可能和你的不一样，但这并不意味着他们是错的。)”可知，有时候我们不需要过多干涉他们的选择。G项“You’re giving good advice if you can help them get there on their own. (如果你能帮助他们自己做到这一点，你就给出了很好的建议。)”，与段落大意相符，其中的help them get there on their own与上文中的process a problem themselves及下文中的a friend’s priorities相呼应，G项承上启下。故选G项。
【20题详解】
设空处在句中，上句“Instead of saying, ‘Ugh, you’ve said this 15, 000 times, ’ you can ask questions. (不要说‘啊，你已经说了15000次了’，你可以问问题。)”，以及“‘What do you think that means ’ or ‘ 5 ’ can be a good one when you’re trying to get someone to consider their own cycle. (当你试图让别人考虑他们自己的周期时，‘你认为这是什么意思？’或 5 ，是一个很好的问题。)”可知，本空应与上句内容一致，即问问题，设空处应是一个问题，内容应让人去思考自己的经历，D项“What has worked for you before (以前什么对你有用)”符合文意，故选D项。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了匈牙利女孩学习汉语的经历，同时在匈牙利，学习汉语的兴趣也越来越大。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：Petofi的雕像矗立在上海鲁迅博物馆前的广场上，为中匈两国的传统友谊欢迎数百万游客。句中谓语是stands，空格处用非谓语动词，statue和welcome之间是主谓关系，因此空格处用现在分词表主动，故填welcoming。
【37题详解】
考查时间状语从句。句意：随着时间的推移，匈牙利人对学习汉语的兴趣越来越浓厚。as time went by意为“随着时间的推移”，as引导的是时间状语从句，因此空格处是as，位于句首，首字母大写，故填As。
【38题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：19岁的匈牙利女孩Varge Bonita，中文名胡令月，不远万里来到东方，在北京开始了她的大学生活，希望能更多地了解中国。空格处引导是非限制性定语从句，Varge Bonita和Chinese name之间是所属关系，因此空格处用关系代词whose表所属，故填whose。
【39题详解】
考查时态。句意：当她七岁第一次听到汉语时，她就爱上了汉语，这是一种“声调特别，字迹优美”的语言。由at the age of seven可知，句子时态用一般过去时，空格处用过去式，故填fell。
【40题详解】
考查冠词。句意：当她七岁第一次听到汉语时，她就爱上了汉语，这是一种“声调特别，字迹优美”的语言。tone是可数名词的单数形式，表泛指，前面要加不定冠词，special是辅音音素开头，因此不定冠词用a，故填a。
【41题详解】
考查介词。句意：对她来说，学习汉语不仅仅是掌握一门语言，而是了解中国5000年的历史，其中有很多有趣的方面。access to是固定短语，意为“接触”，因此空格处是介词to，故填to。
【42题详解】
考查名词。句意：随着汉语在匈牙利的普及，街道上越来越多地看到中文标志，公交车售票机上最容易看到汉字。空格处用名词作宾语，popular的名词是popularity，意为“普及”，是不可数名词，故填popularity。
【43题详解】
考查副词。句意：随着汉语在匈牙利的普及，街道上越来越多地看到中文标志，公交车售票机上最容易看到汉字。空格处用副词commonly修饰动词spotted，commonly意为“通常地”，故填commonly。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语。句意：随着汉语在匈牙利的普及，街道上越来越多地看到中文标志，公交车售票机上最容易看到汉字。sb. be likely to do是固定短语，意为“某人可能做某事”，汉字是被看到，因此要用不定式的被动语态，空前有to，因此空格处是be seen。故填be seen。
【45题详解】
考查形容词。句意：有无限的可能性尚未被探索。空格处用形容词作定语，修饰名词possibilities，由which have not been explored可知，句子表示“有无限的可能性尚未被探索”，空格处意为“无限的”，形容词是endless。故填endless。

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。
If you had to choose one word to describe Kevin, it might have been “slow”. He didn’t learn his ABCs as fast as other kids. He never came in first in the schoolyard races. However, his smile was brighter than the sun in June; his heart was bigger than the mountain sky. Kevin’s enthusiasm for life was quite infectious.
When Kevin joined the boys’ school basketball team, basketball became the center of his life. At practice, he worked so hard that you’d think he was preparing for the NBA. He liked to stand in a certain place near the free-throw line and shoot at the basket. Patiently, he stood there throwing ball after ball after ball. “Look at me, Coach!” he’d shout at Randy, jumping up and down with the excitement of shooting.
Kevin and his whole team truly loved basketball. But just loving the game didn’t help them win. More balls fell out of the basket than into it, and the boys lost every game that season, except one—the night when it snowed and the other team couldn’t make it to the game.
It was a cold snowing afternoon when their last game came. As the last-place team, they played against the first-place team. The game went pretty much the same as expected, and near the middle of the fourth quarter Kevin’s team stood nearly 30 points behind.
At that point, one of Kevin’s teammates called time-out. As he came to the side, Randy couldn’t imagine why the time-out had been called. “Coach,” said the boy. “This is our last game and I know that Kevin has played in every game, but he’s never made a basket. I think we should let Kevin make a basket.” With the game completely out of reach, the idea seemed reasonable, so the plan was made. When they had the ball again, they passed it to Kevin who was standing in his special place near the free-throw line.
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。
His first shot bounced around but missed.

Finally, the ball took one bounce and went in unexpectedly.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】His first shot bounced around but missed. As soon as Kevin’s teammates had the ball again, they passed it to Kevin who was standing in the certain place near the free-throw line. He shot it slowly, but he missed it again. Nevertheless, all the players of his team kept throwing the ball to him and clapped him with encouragement. Very soon the audience figured out what was happening, so one by one they stood up and clapped their hands. The whole playground thundered with the clapping and shouting, “Kevin! Kevin!” And Kevin just kept shooting.
Finally, the ball took one bounce and went in unexpectedly. With arms shooting high into the air, Kevin shouted, “I won! I won!” He jumped high and hugged every teammate excitedly. Everyone could see tears welling in his eyes. They began to shout wildly and clap their hands to congratulate him. The feathery snow danced in the late afternoon air, making a beautiful sight. The clock ticked off the last few seconds and the first-place team remained undefeated. Even though they lost this game again that afternoon, everyone left the playground truly feeling like a winner.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物线索展开，讲述了Kevin是个“迟钝”的男孩，但和其他人相处的很好，他加入了他的老师Randy组建的篮球队，Kevin热爱篮球，但是他投不进球，球队输掉了所有的比赛。在赛季结束时，他们不幸地与第一名的球队比赛，虽然比对方落后很多，但是Kevin的队友觉得应该让Kevin投篮，每次Kevin所在的球队拿到球，Kevin都要站在罚球线附近他的特殊位置，然后他们就会把球给他。
【详解】1. 段落续写：
①由第一段首句“他的第一球弹过，但没有击中”可知，第一段可描写Kevin第一次失败后大家的举动，所有人都为Kevin鼓掌，鼓励他。
②由第二段首句“最后，球弹了一下，出乎意料地进去了”可知，第二段要描写Kevin进球后大家的反应和感想。
2. 续写线索：
Kevin投球不进——观众加油助力——Kevin进球——Kevin、队友、观众的反应——虽输犹胜——感想
