第一节（满分15分）
Possible version:
In recent years,a heartwarming phenomenon has emerged during the Dragon Boat Festival
among senior-three students and their parents-hanging up zongzi-shaped decorations.This
custom,inspired by the pun,meaning"succeed in the exam at one stroke",reflects their hopes for
success in the upcoming college entrance exams.
The reason mainly lies in people's desire for good luck.Facing the important exam,they seek
spiritual comfort.In addition,the Dragon Boat Festival is a time-honored festival,and
incorporating zongzi,a traditional festival food,into this practice links modern wishes with
ancient traditions.
I find this custom meaningful.It not only preserves cultural heritage but also eases exam
stress.However,it's important to remember that hard work and solid preparation are the
foundation of achieving good results.

Finally,we were down to the last piece of chip.We locked eyes with each other.I could feel
the tension in the air over the momentary indecision."Please,go ahead and help yourself to the
last piece of chip,"he offered.Then,he waved goodbye and left,leaving me boiling in anger.Not
only did the ungrateful thief not show any gratitude to me,but he also had the nerve to decide
what to do with the last piece of chip.Of course,I deserve the last piece of the chip,"I declared
silently in triumph.Finally,I heard the announcement that my flight was ready for boarding.I
hurriedly gathered my items and put my book into my bag.
