Naturalist Enzo Suma, who is now 40, lives in Puglia, a region in southern Italy whose long coastline faces the Adriatic Sea. Floating waste accumulates in this relatively enclosed part of the Mediterranean, unlike the open ocean, where the waste tends to be spread over a vast area. Feeling concerned about that, Suma makes it a habit to pick up the washed-up waste along the shore, especially after big winter storms.
One day, Suma was walking along the beach near his home when he discovered a bottle of Coke. Suma noticed on the bottle that the price, clearly printed on the bottom, was in lire, a currency that hadn’t been used in Italy since it was replaced by the euro in 2002. Could a plastic container have well survived in the Mediterranean, he wondered, for about two decades
That led to him founding the Archeoplastica museum. It has a collection of about 500 unique pieces recovered from Italian shores and the Coke bottle is the first one of them. All collection demonstrates the unsettling life force of plastic waste in the environment. “Seeing that a product people may have used 30, 40, or 50 years ago remains still unchanged, you’ll feel different. It’s a great shock,” Suma said to a reporter. So Suma often exhibits selected pieces from the Archeoplastica collection at local schools around his hometown of Ostuni.
“The playful side of the work allows you to arrive at the less beautiful side of things,”
Suma acknowledged. “Plastic is a kind of useful substance. But it’s unthinkable that a water bottle, made from a material designed to last so long, can be used for just a few days—or even minutes—before becoming garbage. Clean the beaches. Clean the oceans. Recycle. But if we are still throwing out plastics, none of those are going to be long-term solutions.”
24.What’s Suma’s concern about his living place
A. Its long coastline is disappearing.
B. Big storms frequently hit the area.
C. Floating waste spreads over a vast area.
D. The waste pollution on shore is worsening.
25. What can be learned about the objects in the Archeoplastica museum
A. They have a history of more than half a century.
B. They were quite valuable before turning into waste.
C. They’re more like educational exhibits than garbage.
D. They have stronger life force than ordinary plastic products.
26. Which of the following can best describe Enzo Suma
A. Creative, devoted and socially responsible.
B. Enthusiastic, ambitious and adventurous.
C. Generous, cautious and humorous.
D. Curious, efficient and playful.
27. What does Suma intend to tell us by his words in the last paragraph
A. The birth of plastics has greatly served humans.
B. The key to tackling the plastic pollution is to stop littering.
C. The plastic problem can be solved by cleaning and recycling.
D. People should be more aware of the powerful functions of plastics.
C
In today’s motivational literature, failure is often viewed as something to be celebrated. Inspirational speakers are fond of quoting the words of the novelist Samuel Beckett-“Fail again. Fail better.” It seems that disappointments are an essential stepping stone to success, a turning point in our life story that will ultimately end in victory.
However, psychological researches find most of us struggle to handle failure constructively. In other words, we fail to “fail forward”. We find ways to devalue the task at which we failed, and become less motivated to persevere and reach our goals. This phenomenon is known as the “sour-grape effect”, which was discovered by Professor Hallgeir Sjastad.
Sjastad explains that “sour-grape effect” is a self-protective mechanism. “Most of us picture ourselves as competent people, so when external feedback suggests otherwise, it poses a serious threat to that self-image,” he says. “The easiest way out is to deny or explain away the external signal, so we can reduce the inconsistency and preserve a positive sense of self. We do this even without noticing.”
If you have one bad interview for your dream job, you might convince yourself that you don’t really want it at all, and stop applying for similar positions. The same goes if you fail to impress at a sports trial, or if a publisher rejects the first submission of your manuscript. “We tend to explain away our shortcomings and convince ourselves our ‘Plan C’ is actually our ‘Plan A’,” Sjastad says.
It doesn’t mean we should persevere in goals all the time. It can be healthy to change ambitions if the process is no longer making us happy. But the “sour-grape effect may lead us to come to this decision prematurely, rather than hanging on a little and seeing whether we might learn and improve.
Failures are unavoidable. By learning to face the disappointment instead of devaluing its importance and pretending nothing happened, you may find it easier to achieve your goals.
28. Why does the author mention the speech of inspirational speakers in paragraph 1
A. To offer an example to handle failure.
B. To describe a shallow understanding of failure.
C. To introduce a common attitude towards failure.
D. To emphasize the importance of experiencing failure.
29. What can we learn from the paragraph 3 about the “sour-grape effect”
A. It protects us from false feedback.
B. It pictures us as competitive people.
C. It poses a severe threat to self-image.
D. It denies negative feedback to ourselves.
30. What is the author’s attitude towards failure
A. Short-sighted. B. Wait-and-see.
C. Objective. D. Skeptical.
31. Which statement would the author most probably agree with
A. Don’t escape when our self-image is broken.
B. Don’t quit when goals no longer make you happy.
C. Never hesitate to replace “Plan A” with “Plan C”.
D. Never forget to maintain a positive sense of self.
D
We learn about the world through the knowledge accumulated over thousands of years. Standing on the shoulders of great men, we don’t have to experience endless trial and error, just as the wheels do not have to be reinvented each time to run a car. But where does our ability to learn from others come from
A study led by Markus Paulus, professor at Loyola Marymount University, shows that the ability has its roots in earliest childhood. “It’s generally assumed that children’s ability to imitate is inborn,but according to our observation,children imitate because they themselves are imitated by caregivers. This interaction enables a cultural transfer of knowledge, which, through generations’ efforts, consequently leads to the development of human beings,” says Markus Paulus.
In this research, Paulus recorded the interaction between mother and child over several months. The babies came into the lab for the first time at the age of 6 months, while their final visit was when they were 18 months old. As they engaged in various play situations, the interactions and imitations of mother and child were analyzed. The long term study showed that the more sensitive a mother was in her interactions with her six month old child and the more often she imitated the baby, the greater the child's overall ability was at the age of 18 months.
Paulus’ research shows that mutual imitation is the keystone of knowledge transfer, through which children successfully learn various skills, such as how to use objects, waving and acquisition of language. “This interaction is the nucleus of learning and, finally, gives rise to evolutionary success of human,” says Paulus.
“Cultural learning is an essential part of human evolution, and it is rooted in the imitation of others, particularly our caregivers during our earliest childhood,” says Paulus. “Through this, we learn from each other and pass on knowledge to the next generation, so certain actions or techniques do not have to be constantly invented again.”
32. Why does the author mention the example of wheels
A. To praise the invention of car wheels.
B. To describe the process of trial and error.
C. To emphasize the necessity of new tools.
D. To show the importance of prior knowledge.
33. What can we learn about Paulus’ research
A. Children’s imitation was recorded by mothers.
B. Sensitive mothers encouraged children’s imitation.
C. Children’s ability was analyzed through interaction.
D. Effective interaction promoted children’s development.
34. What does the underlined word “nucleus” mean in paragraph 4
A. Core. B. Result. C. Aim. D. Content.
35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. Why does Evolution Matter
B. How to Interact with Children
C. Imitation: The Engine of Evolution
D. Cultural Learning: The Root of Imitation

The Malaysian night market is based on a concept of open-air shopping where street vendors (小贩) take over a designated street to set up stalls. The night market is the place where you can hang around the stalls, pick up some items and enjoy the smell of local foods.
Each night market comprises a different combination of stalls. 36 Hence, there is always something new and exciting to look forward to at each visit. You can even be addicted to the treasure hunt of the antique kind which can be found in some night markets.
The night markets are typically from 5 p. m. till 10:30 p. m. You can buy anything from night markets, be it groceries, clothing, good local food, hot snacks, household items, fresh produce, or even the latest styles. By around 6 p. m, the market is in full swing as the first groups of people sweep in. For those who cook, there is stall upon stall selling fresh seafood, meat products, and a limitless variety of vegetables. 37
It is no secret that all-night markets share a common treasure—tasty street cuisine. 38 Thirst-quenchers like the ever-popular soybean drink and sugarcane juice are a permanent feature here.
39 It is not a place for the faint-hearted or the gentle, but to many, they are fun and thrilling places to explore. It is truly an exciting experience and a feast for the eyes on a tropical night out. The atmosphere is almost festive. 40
A. Your curiosity will be satisfied here.
B. There is so much to see, buy and eat.
C. People would complain about the noises here.
D. Noisy crowds are the hallmark of the night market.
E. It would be a regret not to try on mouth-watering local dishes.
F. New items are constantly being added on in line with current trends.
G. Dried and preserved items such as dried shrimp and salted eggs are available here too.

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。
Every year, our swim team runs the Snack Bar at the pool ground to raise funds for covering the costs of swim competitions and equipment. However, during our first summer meeting last month, Coach Abby informed us that the Snack Bar would be closed for repairs until August.
Upon hearing the news, all the team members were worried that without a Snack Bar, we wouldn’t have funds, which meant, our swim team might have to be dismissed.
Supposing the worst, everyone was out of spirit. “Take it easy! I’ll figure it out. For now, boys, jump into the pool and get swimming!” said Coach Abby, gently comforting us. But none of us were swimming our best, and even though Coach Abby was smiling as usual, it was evident that she was concerned about the situation.
During the break, I proposed exploring alternative approaches for holding a fundraising event. My teammates erupted into a lively conversation. D.J. suggested a karaoke sing-along, while Tamara offered to bring starfish cookies for sale. Manny brought up the idea of games and prizes, while I thought we could run a drink stand.
After a heated discussion, it was decided that each of us would take turns hosting the event throughout the week. Coach Abby heartily approved of our plan. My drink stand was scheduled for the last day of the event.
I was so thrilled about the upcoming event that I began my preparations a day ahead. When I was making the drinks, I noticed a very dark cloud outside the kitchen window. “Uh-oh! That’s not a rain cloud, is it ” I asked my mom, feeling a bit anxious. “Rain would be a disaster! It could ruin everything.”
“You know what they say,” she answered. “Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.”
Then came the big day. Coach Abby helped me set up the drink stand and the teammates called out loudly to get everyone together at the pool ground. I hid a big box under the table and nobody knew what was inside. Everything was going smoothly as we wished.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Para 1: Unluckily, the clouds started to gather.
Para 2: After a while, Coach Abby made a cheerful announcement.

Unluckily, dark clouds started to gather in the sky. Before we knew it, the rain was pouring down, making it difficult for everyone to seek shelter near the pool. Upon seeing this, my eyes lit up and I pulled out the box hidden under the table, taking out the stuff prepared earlier. With two booth umbrellas opened and attached to the table, a cosy, dry area came into view. My teammates gathered around me, enthusiastically assisting me to sell the hot chocolate I made with precision, which brought warmth to all those attending the fundraiser. Laughter filled the air once more. 92
After a while, Coach Abby made a cheerful announcement. “Thanks, everyone! We made such an achievement with your joint efforts for the fundraiser that we’ll be able to participate in the swim competition this summer!” The crowd erupted into thunderous applause and cheers. In that moment, I realized the importance of preparing for the worst and working together, especially when the unexpected happened.

二、主题导向
人与社会:未雨绸缪，遇到问题积极想出应对方法。
三、续写线索分析
原文故事最后写到：不幸的是，乌云开始在天空中聚集。原文中已经出现了“我”对雨天的担忧，妈妈的话表达了：期待最好的结果的同时也要为最坏情况做好准备。所以，可以推测出“我”提前做好了准备，在“我”藏在桌下的箱子里准备了应对雨天的装备，可以推测“我”提前准备好的热饮也可以驱散雨天的寒气，活动成功地举办下去。大家募集了足够的经费，解除了泳队的危机。

Naturalist Enzo Suma, who is now 40, lives in Puglia, a region in southern Italy whose long coastline faces the Adriatic Sea. Floating waste accumulates in this relatively enclosed part of the Mediterranean, unlike the open ocean, where the waste tends to be spread over a vast area. Feeling concerned about that, Suma makes it a habit to pick up the washed-up waste along the shore, especially after big winter storms.
One day, Suma was walking along the beach near his home when he discovered a bottle of Coke. Suma noticed on the bottle that the price, clearly printed on the bottom, was in lire, a currency that hadn’t been used in Italy since it was replaced by the euro in 2002. Could a plastic container have well survived in the Mediterranean, he wondered, for about two decades
That led to him founding the Archeoplastica museum. It has a collection of about 500 unique pieces recovered from Italian shores and the Coke bottle is the first one of them. All collection demonstrates the unsettling life force of plastic waste in the environment. “Seeing that a product people may have used 30, 40, or 50 years ago remains still unchanged, you’ll feel different. It’s a great shock,” Suma said to a reporter. So Suma often exhibits selected pieces from the Archeoplastica collection at local schools around his hometown of Ostuni.
“The playful side of the work allows you to arrive at the less beautiful side of things,”
Suma acknowledged. “Plastic is a kind of useful substance. But it’s unthinkable that a water bottle, made from a material designed to last so long, can be used for just a few days—or even minutes—before becoming garbage. Clean the beaches. Clean the oceans. Recycle. But if we are still throwing out plastics, none of those are going to be long-term solutions.”
24.What’s Suma’s concern about his living place
A. Its long coastline is disappearing.
B. Big storms frequently hit the area.
C. Floating waste spreads over a vast area.
D. The waste pollution on shore is worsening.
25. What can be learned about the objects in the Archeoplastica museum
A. They have a history of more than half a century.
B. They were quite valuable before turning into waste.
C. They’re more like educational exhibits than garbage.
D. They have stronger life force than ordinary plastic products.
26. Which of the following can best describe Enzo Suma
A. Creative, devoted and socially responsible.
B. Enthusiastic, ambitious and adventurous.
C. Generous, cautious and humorous.
D. Curious, efficient and playful.
27. What does Suma intend to tell us by his words in the last paragraph
A. The birth of plastics has greatly served humans.
B. The key to tackling the plastic pollution is to stop littering.
C. The plastic problem can be solved by cleaning and recycling.
D. People should be more aware of the powerful functions of plastics.
C
In today’s motivational literature, failure is often viewed as something to be celebrated. Inspirational speakers are fond of quoting the words of the novelist Samuel Beckett-“Fail again. Fail better.” It seems that disappointments are an essential stepping stone to success, a turning point in our life story that will ultimately end in victory.
However, psychological researches find most of us struggle to handle failure constructively. In other words, we fail to “fail forward”. We find ways to devalue the task at which we failed, and become less motivated to persevere and reach our goals. This phenomenon is known as the “sour-grape effect”, which was discovered by Professor Hallgeir Sjastad.
Sjastad explains that “sour-grape effect” is a self-protective mechanism. “Most of us picture ourselves as competent people, so when external feedback suggests otherwise, it poses a serious threat to that self-image,” he says. “The easiest way out is to deny or explain away the external signal, so we can reduce the inconsistency and preserve a positive sense of self. We do this even without noticing.”
If you have one bad interview for your dream job, you might convince yourself that you don’t really want it at all, and stop applying for similar positions. The same goes if you fail to impress at a sports trial, or if a publisher rejects the first submission of your manuscript. “We tend to explain away our shortcomings and convince ourselves our ‘Plan C’ is actually our ‘Plan A’,” Sjastad says.
It doesn’t mean we should persevere in goals all the time. It can be healthy to change ambitions if the process is no longer making us happy. But the “sour-grape effect may lead us to come to this decision prematurely, rather than hanging on a little and seeing whether we might learn and improve.
Failures are unavoidable. By learning to face the disappointment instead of devaluing its importance and pretending nothing happened, you may find it easier to achieve your goals.
28. Why does the author mention the speech of inspirational speakers in paragraph 1
A. To offer an example to handle failure.
B. To describe a shallow understanding of failure.
C. To introduce a common attitude towards failure.
D. To emphasize the importance of experiencing failure.
29. What can we learn from the paragraph 3 about the “sour-grape effect”
A. It protects us from false feedback.
B. It pictures us as competitive people.
C. It poses a severe threat to self-image.
D. It denies negative feedback to ourselves.
30. What is the author’s attitude towards failure
A. Short-sighted. B. Wait-and-see.
C. Objective. D. Skeptical.
31. Which statement would the author most probably agree with
A. Don’t escape when our self-image is broken.
B. Don’t quit when goals no longer make you happy.
C. Never hesitate to replace “Plan A” with “Plan C”.
D. Never forget to maintain a positive sense of self.
D
We learn about the world through the knowledge accumulated over thousands of years. Standing on the shoulders of great men, we don’t have to experience endless trial and error, just as the wheels do not have to be reinvented each time to run a car. But where does our ability to learn from others come from
A study led by Markus Paulus, professor at Loyola Marymount University, shows that the ability has its roots in earliest childhood. “It’s generally assumed that children’s ability to imitate is inborn,but according to our observation,children imitate because they themselves are imitated by caregivers. This interaction enables a cultural transfer of knowledge, which, through generations’ efforts, consequently leads to the development of human beings,” says Markus Paulus.
In this research, Paulus recorded the interaction between mother and child over several months. The babies came into the lab for the first time at the age of 6 months, while their final visit was when they were 18 months old. As they engaged in various play situations, the interactions and imitations of mother and child were analyzed. The long term study showed that the more sensitive a mother was in her interactions with her six month old child and the more often she imitated the baby, the greater the child's overall ability was at the age of 18 months.
Paulus’ research shows that mutual imitation is the keystone of knowledge transfer, through which children successfully learn various skills, such as how to use objects, waving and acquisition of language. “This interaction is the nucleus of learning and, finally, gives rise to evolutionary success of human,” says Paulus.
“Cultural learning is an essential part of human evolution, and it is rooted in the imitation of others, particularly our caregivers during our earliest childhood,” says Paulus. “Through this, we learn from each other and pass on knowledge to the next generation, so certain actions or techniques do not have to be constantly invented again.”
32. Why does the author mention the example of wheels
A. To praise the invention of car wheels.
B. To describe the process of trial and error.
C. To emphasize the necessity of new tools.
D. To show the importance of prior knowledge.
33. What can we learn about Paulus’ research
A. Children’s imitation was recorded by mothers.
B. Sensitive mothers encouraged children’s imitation.
C. Children’s ability was analyzed through interaction.
D. Effective interaction promoted children’s development.
34. What does the underlined word “nucleus” mean in paragraph 4
A. Core. B. Result. C. Aim. D. Content.
35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. Why does Evolution Matter
B. How to Interact with Children

D. Cultural Learning: The Root of Imitation

The Malaysian night market is based on a concept of open-air shopping where street vendors (小贩) take over a designated street to set up stalls. The night market is the place where you can hang around the stalls, pick up some items and enjoy the smell of local foods.

For those who cook, there is stall upon stall selling fresh seafood, meat products, and a limitless variety of vegetables. 37
It is no secret that all-night markets share a common treasure—tasty street cuisine. 38 Thirst-quenchers like the ever-popular soybean drink and sugarcane juice are a permanent feature here.
39 It is not a place for the faint-hearted or the gentle, but to many, they are fun and thrilling places to explore. It is truly an exciting experience and a feast for the eyes on a tropical night out. The atmosphere is almost festive. 40

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。
Every year, our swim team runs the Snack Bar at the pool ground to raise funds for covering the costs of swim competitions and equipment. However, during our first summer meeting last month, Coach Abby informed us that the Snack Bar would be closed for repairs until August.
Upon hearing the news, all the team members were worried that without a Snack Bar, we wouldn’t have funds, which meant, our swim team might have to be dismissed.
Supposing the worst, everyone was out of spirit. “Take it easy! I’ll figure it out. For now, boys, jump into the pool and get swimming!” said Coach Abby, gently comforting us. But none of us were swimming our best, and even though Coach Abby was smiling as usual, it was evident that she was concerned about the situation.
During the break, I proposed exploring alternative approaches for holding a fundraising event. My teammates erupted into a lively conversation. D.J. suggested a karaoke sing-along, while Tamara offered to bring starfish cookies for sale. Manny brought up the idea of games and prizes, while I thought we could run a drink stand.
After a heated discussion, it was decided that each of us would take turns hosting the event throughout the week. Coach Abby heartily approved of our plan. My drink stand was scheduled for the last day of the event.
I was so thrilled about the upcoming event that I began my preparations a day ahead. When I was making the drinks, I noticed a very dark cloud outside the kitchen window. “Uh-oh! That’s not a rain cloud, is it ” I asked my mom, feeling a bit anxious. “Rain would be a disaster! It could ruin everything.”
“You know what they say,” she answered. “Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.”
Then came the big day. Coach Abby helped me set up the drink stand and the teammates called out loudly to get everyone together at the pool ground. I hid a big box under the table and nobody knew what was inside. Everything was going smoothly as we wished.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Para 1: Unluckily, the clouds started to gather.
Para 2: After a while, Coach Abby made a cheerful announcement.

Unluckily, dark clouds started to gather in the sky. Before we knew it, the rain was pouring down, making it difficult for everyone to seek shelter near the pool. Upon seeing this, my eyes lit up and I pulled out the box hidden under the table, taking out the stuff prepared earlier. With two booth umbrellas opened and attached to the table, a cosy, dry area came into view. My teammates gathered around me, enthusiastically assisting me to sell the hot chocolate I made with precision, which brought warmth to all those attending the fundraiser. Laughter filled the air once more. 92
After a while, Coach Abby made a cheerful announcement. “Thanks, everyone! We made such an achievement with your joint efforts for the fundraiser that we’ll be able to participate in the swim competition this summer!” The crowd erupted into thunderous applause and cheers. In that moment, I realized the importance of preparing for the worst and working together, especially when the unexpected happened. Today, with mother’s words echoing in my mind, I turned a rainy day into an unforgettable success. Soon, the clouds parted, and rays of sunlight broke through, casting a golden glow over the pool. 88
读后续写评分标准
一、原文故事回顾
游泳队依靠经营零食铺获得经费，用于游泳比赛和购买设备，但教练告知队员零食铺需要维修，8月就要关停。队员们担心游泳队的未来，大家七嘴八舌讨论起来，商量举办一个资金筹集活动。最终决定队员们轮流主办主题活动，而“我”的饮料铺被安排在活动的最后一天。在我提前准备饮料的时候，看见天空中的乌云，担心活动会受到影响。妈妈告诉我凡事要未雨绸缪，做好准备。在举办的当天，同伴们帮我搭好了饮料摊点，但是乌云聚集起来，要下雨了。活动会停止吗？短文续写由此展开。
二、主题导向
人与社会:未雨绸缪，遇到问题积极想出应对方法。
三、续写线索分析
原文故事最后写到：不幸的是，乌云开始在天空中聚集。原文中已经出现了“我”对雨天的担忧，妈妈的话表达了：期待最好的结果的同时也要为最坏情况做好准备。所以，可以推测出“我”提前做好了准备，在“我”藏在桌下的箱子里准备了应对雨天的装备，可以推测“我”提前准备好的热饮也可以驱散雨天的寒气，活动成功地举办下去。大家募集了足够的经费，解除了泳队的危机。
四、说明
读后续写考查学生阅读理解能力，逻辑思维能力和语言表达能力。它既要求学生能根据原文故事提供的线索，遵守一定的情节逻辑和语言特点续写，也有一定的开发性和灵活性。老师们批改时请给予学生足够的创作空间。只要学生写出符合逻辑的后续故事，与原文有一定的融洽度都应该得分。

（3）上下文的衔接和全文的连贯性。
3. 评分时先根据作答的具体情况初步确定其所属档次，然后以该档次的要求来综合衡量，确定或调整档次最后给分。
4. 评分时还应注意
（1）词数少于 120 ，酌情扣分。
（2）单词拼写和标点符是写作规范的重要方面，评分时应视其对交际的影响程度予以考虑，英美拼写及词汇用法均可接受。
