In dreaming up the programme Tennis and Literacy for Youth, as a mother, I had hoped to share two of my passions, tennis and reading, with children. Throughout the year, I had advertised for participants at local elementary schools and volunteers at local high schools. With the help of kind people, I applied for money. I was even able to secure a camp site for the programme.
But on the first day of camp, in spite of my careful planning, things did not go the way I had hoped. Hector and Adrian exchanged blows with their racquets (球拍). Hector struggled to his feet moments later, covering a bloody nose with one hand. Georgie and Eduardo threw balls at each other. Then during the reading time, I raced from joyless child to demanding child, unable to convince even one to open a book. They would rather be watching Nickelodeon at home, Mylea told me, than “learning stupid tennis and reading boring books”.
That evening, exhausted as I was, I called my volunteers together for a meeting, and redesigned the entire curriculum. We created a good fellow system, where each volunteer paired with a camper to help him or her during reading time. To emphasize praise and progress, we established weekly prize ceremonies, presenting awards for most improved reading, tennis
and behavior.
In the following days, with the chaos and the schedule changes and the meetings, these children, once in bad mood during reading time, untouched books in their laps, began to find joy in reading a story and playing tennis.
One day, Mylea shut the book and asked me, “Can I take this to read it to my mom tonight ” Looking up at her eager face, I couldn’t help myself. I jumped to my feet and wrapped her in a hug, lifting her right off the ground. “It’s all yours!” I overjoyed.

When Jason Esterhuizen was 23, an accident left him blind. Now, eight years later, special glasses and a device inside his brain are allowing him to make out some details of the world around him.
In 2011, Mr. Esterhuizen and his wife moved to California in order to take part in a study that offered the possibility of helping him with his vision. The study was being run by UCLA and a company called Second Sight, which was to test an unusual medical product called Orion.
There are three important pieces to Orion. One part looks like a pair of glasses. But the glasses are really for holding a camera on the person's head. They also send wireless signals. The second part of Orion is a tiny computer that processes the video from the camera. The third part is a tiny device - an implant - that is inserted directly into the patient's brain. That's what's new and different about Orion.
For years, Second Sight and other companies have been working on ways to get visual information into the brains of blind people. Most of the efforts have focused on connecting to the retina(视网膜)-a layer at the back of the eye that turns light into, electrical signals for the brain. So far Second Sight has given about 350 people retinal implants.
But a retinal implant wasn't possible for Mr. Esterhuizen. That's why Orion's direct connection to the brain was especially interesting to him. As Dr. Nader Pouratian, the surgeon who gave Mr. Esterhuizen his implant. said, “With the current system we're testing, you don't even need to have eyes for the device to work. ”
“Now I can do things that I couldn't do before, ” Mr. Esterhuizen said. “I can sort the laundry, find my way in lighted hallways without using a cane, and cross the street more safely. It's making my little much easier. ”
32. What is the goal of the study
A. To take the place of retina implant.
B. To check the effectiveness of the new product.
C To promote the unusual medical product.
D. To recover the blind people's vision.
33. What has Second Sight done for the blind people according to the 4th paragraph
A. Trying to send electrical signals to the retina.
B. Implanting retina for the blind people.
C. Developing tiny computers for the disabled.
D. Making Orion more popular to the blind people.
34. Which of the following statements agree with the passage
A. Mr. Esterhuizen had a retinal implant.
B. Mr. Esterhuizen took a job of sorting the laundry.
C. Mr. Esterhuizen benefited from Orion.
D. Mr. Esterhuizen can live a normal life as others now.
35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text

Education is a self-enlightening process. It is an important part of life.
36 The first thing that strikes me about education is knowledge gain. Education gives us knowledge of the world around us. It develops in us a perspective of looking at life. It helps us build opinions and have points of view on things in life. Education makes us capable of explaining things rightly. It is not just about lessons in textbooks. 37
Education is important also because it equips us with all that is needed to make our dreams come true. It opens doors to brilliant career opportunities. 38 We are weighed in the market on the basis of our educational skills and how well we can apply them.
39 It wipes out all the wrong beliefs in our minds. It helps create a clear picture of everything around us and we no longer remain in confusion about the things we learn. It can lead us to enlightenment. It is education that builds in every individual the confidence to make decisions, to face life and to accept success and failure.
For the progress of a nation, for the enrichment of society in general, education is necessary and important. A country’s literate population is its asset(有利条件). The number of institutes offering vocational courses and colleges offering online education is increasing by the day.
Well, schools, colleges and other such educational institutes define the basic framework of education. But education does not end here. 40 Self-learning begins at a point where institutional education ends. The process of self-learning continues.
A. Education is essential as it paves the path leading to disillusionment(醒悟).
B Why is education so important
C. It is a lifelong process.
D. How can people get education
E. It brings better prospects in career and growth.
F. It is about the lessons of life.
G. It ends when our career begins.

Thanksgiving for the Soul
Working as a primary teacher in Pompton Lakes Primary School, New Jersey, I particularly believed in cultivating love in children from an early age. I wanted children to experience that it’s more blessed to give than to receive. I wanted them to understand that love of society and love of life is not just lip service; that people somehow have to make it come alive. I hoped they could experience a sense of their own power to make a difference.
There was a rural area nearby where a lot of aged people lived in solitude (孤独). They either had no family or their children had left to work in big cities. Most of them lived on government aid to keep body and soul together. An agency, which was in charge of the elder people in this region, had once told me about a needy grandmother, Mrs. Wilson, who had lived alone for many years. I had always desired to do something for her. So I came up with the Thanksgiving plan.
In October, I told the eight-year-olds in my class about my plan. “I’d like all of you to do extra jobs around the house to earn some money,” I said. “Then we’ll buy food for a Thanksgiving dinner for a needy grandma who might not have a nice dinner otherwise.”
Early in Thanksgiving week, the boys and girls arrived in class clutching (紧握) their hard-earned money. They had cleared rubbish, set tables, washed dishes, helped with younger siblings. And now they couldn’t wait to go shopping.
I watched while they ran up and down the supermarket aisles (货架通道). At last we headed toward the checkout, pushing a cart filled with turkey and all the trimmings (配料). Then someone spotted a “necessity”—flowers, which caught their attention. All kids ran toward the holiday flowers, with one proposing, “Flowers! We can buy her a bunch of flowers!”
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。
“Flowers may not be as practical as food.” I said.

With a food box and a bunch of flowers, we finally arrived at Mrs. Wilson’s home.

Let's make a conscious effort to limit our phone time and make the most of the precious moments in our lives. 让我们有意识地努力限制手机使用时间,充分利用生活中的宝贵时刻。
写作示范
示范一
Less Phone Time
The cellphone has become a part of people’s daily life. We use it to communicate with others, post pictures and update our profile. But I was once a heavy phone user. I spent hours scrolling through social media, which affected my sleep and study.
Determined to change, I deleted some time - wasting apps and set a strict schedule for phone use. The results were amazing. I got enough sleep, and my grades improved. Moreover, I could have deeper conversations with my friends without distractions.
For those struggling with phone addiction, try keeping your phone out of reach during study or mealtime. Join a sports club to replace phone time with physical activities. Remember, a balanced life is waiting for you beyond the screen.
示范二
Less Phone Time
The cellphone has become a part of people’s daily life. We use it to communicate with others, post pictures and update our profile. I used to be addicted to mobile games. Whenever I had free time, I would immerse myself in the game world, ignoring everything around me.
To get rid of this addiction, I gave my phone to my parents during study hours and started to keep a journal instead. After a while, I found I had more time for self - reflection. I also became more active in class discussions.
If you are addicted to your phone, I suggest you find a meaningful hobby like painting or reading. You can also set a timer for each app to control your usage. Let's reduce phone time and embrace a healthier lifestyle.
示范三
Less Phone Time
The cellphone has become a part of people’s daily life. We use it to communicate with others, post pictures and update our profile. I was once so glued to my phone that I missed out on many real - life joys. I realized I needed to change when I failed an important exam because of my phone addiction.
I started by turning off all notifications and only checking my phone at specific times. This simple change made a big difference. I had more time to exercise and read books. My relationships with my family also got better as I was more present at home.
For those who can't put down their phones, why not form a study group Studying together can reduce your dependence on the phone. Also, use apps that block your phone usage after a certain time. Let's free ourselves from the phone's control and live a more fulfilling life.

故事概要:
我在一所小学教书,一直以来我都希望从小培养孩子们的爱心,希望他们体验到给予的快乐。学校附近有个孤寡老人社区,我一直很想帮助社区里的独居老人Mrs. Wilson。感恩节来临之前,我让孩子们回家通过做家务挣些钱,到感恩节时为Mrs. Wilson买感恩节的晚餐。感恩节前,孩子们存够了钱,跟我一起去超市购买感恩节的晚餐的食材。结合标题,如果说感恩节送给孤寡老人送食物能够解决她的饥饿问题,那么送一束鲜花一定能够慰藉她的灵魂。
第一段续写思路:
文章最后一句告诉我们,正当我们准备结账离开超市的时候,有人发现了“必需品”——鲜花,有孩子提议再给Wilson奶奶买一束鲜花。第一段的首句“Flowers may not be as practical as food.” I said. 表明了作者对于买鲜花的态度,觉得鲜花没有食物实用。而第二段首句是With a food box and a bunch of flowers, we finally arrived at Mrs. Wilson’s home. 读者可以推测出孩子们一定是说服“我”买了一束鲜花送给Wilson奶奶,并开车前往她家。
Paragraph 1 参考要点:
孩子们说服我购买鲜花送给奶奶;
选购鲜花;
孩子们和我一起去往Wilson奶奶家。(和下文的衔接)
第二段续写思路:
第二段的首句With a food box and a bunch of flowers, we finally arrived at Mrs. Wilson’s home. 提示读者续写到达Wilson奶奶家之后,我们给Mrs. Wilson送感恩节食材和鲜花的过程。
Paragraph 2 参考要点:
对Mrs. Wilson奶奶状态或生活状况的描写;
我们将感恩节的食材拿进屋子后Mrs. Wilson的反应,尤其是看到鲜花时的反应;
③ 主题升华(升华到通过“助人”获得成长的快乐基本达到写作要求;若能升华到鲜花能给人带来精神上的滋养,则更完美)。
范文
“Flowers may not be as practical as food.” I said. “
“食物会让她一天吃饱肚子,但鲜花会让她高兴几天或更长时间。”其中一个人坚持说。“Food will feed her for the day, but flowers will delight her for days or longer.” one of them insisted.
看着那里排列整齐的鲜花,空气中弥漫着甜美的香味,我改变了主意。Looking at the bunches of blooming flowers neatly arranged there, sweet scent filling the air, I changed my mind.
在我同意后,孩子们冲上前去,选了一束漂亮的紫色花,小心翼翼地放进了购物车里。With my consent, the kids rushed forward, chose a bunch of beautiful purple flowers, and carefully placed it into the cart.
不久,我们跳上车,朝威尔逊太太家驶去。孩子们在路上说着,咯咯地笑着,无法抑制他们的兴奋。 Soon we jumped into the car and drove toward Mrs. Wilson’s home. The little ones talked and giggled on the way, unable to hold back their excitement.
With a food box and a bunch of flowers, we finally arrived at Mrs. Wilson’s home.
威尔逊夫人,一个脸色疲惫不堪的个头很小的妇女,走到门口欢迎我们。Mrs. Wilson, a little woman with a weary face, came to the door to welcome us.
她热情好客地把我们领进了她的家。With great hospitality, she led us into her house.
当我们把食物盒拿进去时,她高兴得张大了嘴。 Her mouth was widened with great joy as we carried the food box in.

“Flowers may not be as practical as food.” I said. “
“食物会让她一天吃饱肚子,但鲜花会让她高兴几天或更长时间。”其中一个人坚持说。看着那里排列整齐的鲜花,空气中弥漫着甜美的香味,我改变了主意。在我同意后,孩子们冲上前去,选了一束漂亮的紫色花,小心翼翼地放进了购物车里。不久,我们跳上车,朝威尔逊太太家驶去。孩子们在路上说着,咯咯地笑着,无法抑制他们的兴奋。
With a food box and a bunch of flowers, we finally arrived at Mrs. Wilson’s home.
威尔逊夫人,一个脸色疲惫不堪的个头很小的妇女,走到门口欢迎我们。她热情好客地把我们领进了她的家。当我们把食物盒拿进去时,她高兴得张大了嘴。 当一个孩子送给她甜蜜的花朵时,她简直无法掩饰自己的兴奋,泪水在眼睛里闪闪发光。她把花捧在鼻子边,似乎又恢复了青春和活力。就在那一刻,孩子们发现了他们所拥有的改善他人生活的力量。有时,在一个黑暗的十一月的日子里,一束花可以滋养另一个灵魂。

W: Good evening, everyone! Tonight, I’d like to share with you something about the Bermuda Triangle on the program. Have you ever heard about the Bermuda Triangle It was on everyone’s lips from about 1950 till about 1980. During that time, people were convinced that mysterious powers were at work there, causing the disappearance of many airplanes and ships.
The Bermuda Triangle is a large triangular area in the Atlantic Ocean. It became famous in 1950, after the Miami Herald published an article by Edward Jones about five American planes disappearing within that area in 1945. A U.S. Navy search plane was sent out to look for them but it also vanished.
People started wondering what had happened, and in 1964 Vincent Gaddis wrote an article called “The Deadly Bermuda Triangle”. It was followed by several books, and very quickly, almost everyone in the world was talking about the mysterious Bermuda Triangle.
In 1975, however, a librarian by the name of Larry Kusche published a book. The book shows that the tales about the Bermuda Triangle and its dangers are mostly untrue. He proved that planes or ships disappearing within the Bermuda Triangle are not more than anywhere else on the Earth, and that the Bermuda Triangle is just a sensational story.
In 2013, a list of the world’s most dangerous shipping lanes was published. The Bermuda Triangle wasn’t even mentioned on the list!
