Virtual Field Trips Your Kids Can Take
If you have a free morning or afternoon and want to keep curious kids busy, head to one of these virtual field trip sites. A virtual tour can be a learning experience in itself. For kids interested in science, these field trips may be a good choice.
FarmFood 360°
Is your kid curious about how chickens, cows, or pigs are raised No problem! At FarmFood 360°, you can read about how some Canadian farms are run and watch a series of videos about each one, explaining everything from how a farmer spends their day to environmental sustainability (可持续性) of modern-day farms.
Johnson Space Center
Mini Neil Armstrongs should check out the Johnson Space Center online for space technology education opportunities. Boeing and Discovery Education host two virtual field trips on space exploration: Innovating The Future and ecoAction. Both trips include a video series and companion educator guides, so you can apply your newfound knowledge over the course of a few days’ worth of lesson plans and activities.
Museum of Science
The Museum of Science, a Boston-based science center, is worth a trip at some point in your life. Until you can get to Boston, the museum is hosting virtual content, including live animal demonstrations and chats about current science events.
Seattle Aquarium
The Seattle Aquarium is a good place for kids to learn about sea life. Check out what kinds of exhibits the aquarium houses on location through live cameras, activities, and fact sheets, and then head over to YouTube, where staff host a virtual field trip by walking-and-talking you through several of the species native to the Puget Sound in Washington that spend their days inside the aquarium.

One natural disaster after another had got Brazil into trouble. There had been a huge mudslide (泥石流) in the country’s southeast, then a mysterious oil spill along the northeastern coast, and finally fires in the Amazon rainforest.
That was when Kau Rodolfo, 11, decided it was time to help. The way he sees it, the planet is in big trouble — and it’s up to kids to solve it. So he started planting trees in the southern Brazilian city of Curitiba, one after another.
“It’s important to save the planet,” Kau said, “and it’s important to protect trees, because they make us better.”
Kau is an ambassador (大使) of an organization called Plant-for-the-Planet. Created in 2007 by a 9-year-old German named Felix Finkbeiner, it is an international awareness campaign led by children that began with a great goal: plant 1 million trees. But soon, what began as the one tree Felix planted at his school turned into several thousands, then several hundreds of thousands, then, within a few years, 1 million.
But the campaign — and the goal — didn’t stop there. It has sprung up in many countries across the world. Last autumn, it reached Kau ’s classroom. He immediately fell in love with the idea of planting trees and raising awareness about the environment, so he signed up for a one-day training course to become an ambassador of Plant-for-the Planet.
What’s happening in the environment is unpredictable. It’s a scary time to be a kid. But Kau doesn’t think it has to be.
The planet will find a way if people can learn to work together, he said. It is an idea he is trying to instill (逐渐灌输) by giving regular environmental speeches and planting trees.
“I’m not scared of the future of the planet, because I’m going to help the planet,” he said. “I’m going to do this. I’m going to go forward with this project. You don’t have to be scared.”
He’s already planted seven trees. And he’s excited to plant more.
“I don’t know why I love nature, but if I stopped planting trees, I would be sad,” he said.
4. Why does the author mention the natural disasters in paragraph 1
A. To give some background to Kau ’s action.
B. To introduce the problems Kau ’s family is facing.
C. To stress the importance of protecting the planet.
D. To show the effects of human activities on the planet.
5. What can be learned about Plant-for-the-Planet
A. It was based in Brazil. B. It was founded by Kau .
C. It has a history of 20 years. D. It has achieved its original goal.
6. What is the purpose of Kau ’s speeches
A. To inspire people to take a training course.
B. To attract people to Plant-for-the-Planet.
C. To instill the idea of working hard into children.
D. To encourage people to protect the environment together.
7. Which of the following can best describe Kau
A. Helpful and patient. B. Positive and creative.
C. Responsible and determined. D. Smart and brave.
C
Most highly skilled fields have rude names for beginners. And yet there has never been a better time to be a beginner. Learning platforms such as Coursera Skillshare and Duolingo sell you an experience that you can fit around your busy life, achieving mastery in a short time.
In this book Beginners, Tom Vanderbilt joins the growing army of beginners. Stuck in mid-career growth, he decides to spend a year learning new skills. He hires a singing teacher and joins the Britpop Choir. He takes up drawing, then surfing. He learns to juggle (玩杂耍). With the help of a jeweler, he even makes his own wedding ring. None of these attempts turn into life-changing passions. They are simply done for fun.
The motivation behind all this comes from Vanderbilt’s experience of parenthood, which can only be learned in the doing of it. All parents are beginners, and beginner teachers, clumsily (笨拙地) passing on knowledge to their children. As he watches his daughter effortlessly pick up how to swim or play chess, Vanderbilt worries that he has left it too late. “It’s hard to be old and bad at something,” as a friend, returning to swimming in middle age, puts it.
Luckily, he achieves satisfying results with relatively little painful effort. People appreciate his inexpert but improved singing because most people can’t sing very well. The title of one academic paper he cites — “Imprecise singing is widespread” — says it all. The acid (讽刺的) test is “Happy Birthday”, the most familiar song in the language and yet not easy to sing because it spans (跨越) an octave (八度音阶) and moves up and down it dramatically.
In a world where apps constantly rate us and measure our performance, so that learning anything becomes another form of work, we should enjoy the process more and worry less about the product. All Vanderbilt achieves in the end is a basic skill in various unrelated activities. But it has brought him “an enormous and almost forgotten kind of pleasure”. This book conveys that pleasure and is itself a pleasure to read.
8. What motivates Vanderbilt’s passion for learning new skills
A. His friend’s swimming comeback. B. His experience of being a parent.
C. His daughter’s advice on trying new things. D. His hope for changing the views of beginners.
9. Why does the author mention the song “Happy Birthday”
A. To indicate the importance of repetition in singing.
B. To draw attention to its popularity around the world.
C. To prove its effectiveness in testing musical memory.
D. To show the difficulty in singing even well-known songs well.
10. What does the author stress in the last paragraph
A. The need to master various unrelated skills.
B. The pleasure obtained from reading a book.
C. The importance of enjoying the learning process.
D. The significance of gaining recognition for one’s efforts.
11. What is the text
A. A news report. B. A book review.
C. A career guide. D. A research article.
D
Crows (乌鸦) can use tools and perform basic statistics, and they continue to surprise us. Earlier this year, a team of researchers from the University of Bristol found that the hooded crow, which has a grey body and black tail and head feathers (羽毛), is able to memorize the shape and size of an object after it is taken away and construct one like it. This kind of action requires the ability to form a mental template, which is basically an image in the mind of what a particular object looks like, even when that object is not present. Mental templates allow animals to create tools, which can be used to get food or make a stronger nest, both eventually leading to a better chance of survival.
For their study, Sarah Jelbert and her coworkers first trained three hooded crows to recognize pieces of paper of different sizes and colors. To do this, they exposed the birds to “template” pieces of paper in different colors and sizes for several minutes before removing them and then rewarded the birds for dropping small pieces that matched these templates into a long narrow opening. The crows were next given the opportunity to make versions of these objects in exchange for a reward. The researchers found that all three crows made objects that matched the original template object they had been rewarded for in both color and size.
“Unlike humans, who regularly copy each other’s behavior, we don’t have much evidence that crows will watch each other and copy what another crow is doing,” Jelbert says. However, young crows often steal their parents’ tools. So it’s possible that these crows learn how to make different types of tools from experience, stealing their parents’ tools, using them to remember what these tools look like, and then trying to create something similar, Jelbert believes.
12. Which of the following best illustrates a mental template
A. A monkey swinging from branch to branch. B. A cat getting back the food it hid.
C. A crow sleeping in its nest. D. A dog playing with a ball.
13. What did the crows do in the study
A. They performed basic statistics. B. They were trained to do magic tricks.
C. They matched and reproduced objects. D. They observed and copied one another.
14. What can we infer from young crows’ stealing incidents
A. These are social motivations. B. They may fall into an annoying habit.
C. They come into conflict with their parents. D. These are opportunities for acquiring skills.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text
A Crows communicate in a unique language B. Hooded crows use more tools than other birds
C Crows are even smarter than we thought D. Hooded crows identify sizes and colors with ease
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能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
Like many, I travel a lot for work. Unlike many, I never get tired of it. On the open road are always interesting people and new places. ____16____ When I travel, I wait to board the plane, wait in restaurants, wait to check into hotels, and on and on.
____17____ When a line forms, nearly everyone pulls out their phone to kill the time, playing games, checking email, and, especially, scrolling (滚屏) social media. You might think that this solution must work, but in fact it might not work at all.
In one study, researchers found as people’s boredom increased, they used their phones more, but it only increased their boredom. Your phone may attract your attention, but after the first few seconds, you may find that it really isn’t much more interesting than staring at the wall. ____18____
If this solution is not helpful, looking within ourselves could be a better bet. ____19____ The most common definition of this is a thinking technique in which one continuously focuses on the present moment. You will find that putting down your phone and deliberately (故意地) taking note of what you observe will lower the discomfort from boredom.
The best way to lower the misery of waiting, then, turns out to be not to change the world but to change oneself. ____20____ Most of us go about our days feeling dissatisfied with the world because it is failing in some way to meet our preferences. But on a moment’s reflection, we realize how foolish it is to suppose that it might. To do so is like canoeing (划独木舟) and complaining about the river’s bends instead of following them.
A. It’s about practicing being mindful.
B. Meanwhile, it consumes your energy.
C. That insight can apply not just to waiting but to life itself.
D. The expense and inconvenience of these things are permanent.
E. Think of the last time you waited in an airport for a long-delayed flight.
F. However, one thing about travel that has bothered me is the constant waiting.
G. One waiting strategy most people have turned to of late is distraction by device.

In high school, Wyatt Miller may have come across as a typical player, but his home economics class proved otherwise.
While the other students had little interest in learning how to sew (缝纫), he was actually ____21____ to give it a try. Best of all, though, he turned out to have a ____22____ for it! “He was kind of a natural,” said his teacher Connie Haugen.
Wyatt’s ____23____ love for sewing didn’t end with his ____24____. For Christmas he asked his mom for a sewing machine. That way, ____25____ buying new clothes, he could change and personalize the ones he already ____26____!
Wyatt had been sharing his creations on social media, and the positive feedback he received gave him the ____27____ he needed to start his own brand, Sparked Apparel.
As of today, Wyatt ____28____ Sparked Apparel from his parents’ basement. But ____29____ he has enough money saved, he wants to sign a lease (租约) on a space only for his ____30____. This certainly isn’t the path this 19-year-old ____31____ he’d take in life, but it’s certainly one he takes ____32____ in.
“If you had ____33____ me, when I was in high school getting taught how to sew, that I would be sewing, I would have ____34____ you,” Wyatt said. “But now, after high school, I grow up a little bit and ____35____ that everyone does their own thing, everyone finds their own journey in life, and so far this is mine.”
21. A. confused B. relieved C. surprised D. excited
22. A. talent B. plan C. story D. solution
23. A. lost B. public C. newfound D. widespread
24. A. holiday B. training C. game D. class
25. A. due to B. instead of C. except for D. more than
26. A. owned B. ordered C. designed D. threw
27. A. service B. method C. push D. freedom
28. A. runs B. joins C. uses D. helps
29. A. though B. unless C. since D. once
30. A. lesson B. family C. business D. practice
31. A. suggested B. expected C. doubted D. admitted
32. A. pride B. place C. part D. power
33. A. reminded B. taught C. promised D. told
34. A. apologized to B. compared with C. laughed at D. thought of

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。
“Daddy! Daddy!” Betsy shouted, bouncing down the stairs two at a time with hair flying and eyes shining. “Guess what! Mrs. Billings, my teacher, put up a great big paper tree trunk (树干) on the wall. Every time somebody does something good and receives a compliment (夸奖), he gets to put a branch with his name on it on the tree.”
“Sounds interesting,” said Daddy. “Did you get a compliment today ”
“No, but Toby did. He washed all the colored chalk off the desks. I sure hope I will get a compliment tomorrow.”
At school the next day Patricia got a compliment for erasing all the chalkboards, and Matt got a compliment for doing his best writing. Yet Betsy did not get a compliment.
The following day started out no better. When Betsy leaned back (仰靠) in her chair to stretch, she lost her balance and fell over with a loud crash. At lunchtime she accidentally knocked over Ronnie’s milk. “I’ll never get a compliment this way,” she thought sadly.
At the end of the day Mrs. Billings passed out some math tests the children had done the day before. “Boys and girls, only one person got 100 points in the math test. Congratulations, Betsy! Come up and get a branch to put on the Compliment Tree.”
“Oh, boy!” Betsy cried excitedly.
After school she ran home as fast as she could, her math test held tightly in one fist. “Guess what, Daddy! Guess what!” Betsy breathlessly poured out her good news.
Later that evening, as Betsy looked happily at her math test with the gold star on it, her eyes stopped at the answer to one of the problems. “Oh, no!” she sighed. “Look, Daddy! I made a mistake! See ”
“Well, it looks like you have a decision to make, Betsy,” said Daddy.
“But I don’t want to lose my compliment!” Betsy said quietly.
You’re old enough to know what’s right, Betsy,” said Daddy. He put his arm around her and added, “If I know my girl, she’ll make the right choice.”
注意：1. 续写词数应为150个左右；
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
The next day Betsy walked to school very slowly.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
At the end of the day, Mrs. Billings announced that Betsy could receive a special branch.

46. Dear fellow students,
To create a more eco-friendly environment for us all, our school is launching the “Greener Campus, Shared Responsibility” campaign.
We can start with daily actions: turn off lights and taps when not in use, use reusable bottles and bags to reduce plastic waste, and take part in tree-planting activities. It’s also helpful to remind classmates to sort garbage and recycle paper properly.
Every small step adds up. Let’s take our shared responsibility and work together — your participation will make our campus greener and healthier.

47. 范文
The next day Betsy walked to school very slowly. Reaching the classroom door, her heart pounded. Taking a deep breath, Betsy approached Mrs. Billings’ desk. “Mrs. Billings,” she said quietly, holding out the test, “I found a mistake. I shouldn’t have gotten 100 or the branch.” Mrs. Billings looked at the paper, then at Betsy’s earnest face. A warm smile spread across her face. “Thank you for telling me, Betsy,” she said gently. “That was very honest.” Betsy felt a knot in her stomach loosen, though the loss of the branch still stung.
At the end of the day, Mrs. Billings announced that Betsy could receive a special branch. Before dismissal, Mrs. Billings gathered the class. “Children,” she began, “Betsy discovered a mistake on her perfect math test and bravely chose to tell me about it, even knowing it meant she might lose her Compliment Tree branch.” Mrs. Billings continued, “Because Betsy showed such remarkable honesty, she deserves a very special branch on our Compliment Tree — one for doing what was right, even when it was hard.” She handed Betsy a bright green branch. A wave of happiness washed over Betsy, brighter than the gold star had ever made her feel.

Virtual Field Trips Your Kids Can Take
If you have a free morning or afternoon and want to keep curious kids busy, head to one of these virtual field trip sites. A virtual tour can be a learning experience in itself. For kids interested in science, these field trips may be a good choice.
FarmFood 360°
Is your kid curious about how chickens, cows, or pigs are raised No problem! At FarmFood 360°, you can read about how some Canadian farms are run and watch a series of videos about each one, explaining everything from how a farmer spends their day to environmental sustainability (可持续性) of modern-day farms.
Johnson Space Center
Mini Neil Armstrongs should check out the Johnson Space Center online for space technology education opportunities. Boeing and Discovery Education host two virtual field trips on space exploration: Innovating The Future and ecoAction. Both trips include a video series and companion educator guides, so you can apply your newfound knowledge over the course of a few days’ worth of lesson plans and activities.
Museum of Science
The Museum of Science, a Boston-based science center, is worth a trip at some point in your life. Until you can get to Boston, the museum is hosting virtual content, including live animal demonstrations and chats about current science events.
Seattle Aquarium
The Seattle Aquarium is a good place for kids to learn about sea life. Check out what kinds of exhibits the aquarium houses on location through live cameras, activities, and fact sheets, and then head over to YouTube, where staff host a virtual field trip by walking-and-talking you through several of the species native to the Puget Sound in Washington that spend their days inside the aquarium.

One natural disaster after another had got Brazil into trouble. There had been a huge mudslide (泥石流) in the country’s southeast, then a mysterious oil spill along the northeastern coast, and finally fires in the Amazon rainforest.
That was when Kau Rodolfo, 11, decided it was time to help. The way he sees it, the planet is in big trouble — and it’s up to kids to solve it. So he started planting trees in the southern Brazilian city of Curitiba, one after another.
“It’s important to save the planet,” Kau said, “and it’s important to protect trees, because they make us better.”
Kau is an ambassador (大使) of an organization called Plant-for-the-Planet. Created in 2007 by a 9-year-old German named Felix Finkbeiner, it is an international awareness campaign led by children that began with a great goal: plant 1 million trees. But soon, what began as the one tree Felix planted at his school turned into several thousands, then several hundreds of thousands, then, within a few years, 1 million.
But the campaign — and the goal — didn’t stop there. It has sprung up in many countries across the world. Last autumn, it reached Kau ’s classroom. He immediately fell in love with the idea of planting trees and raising awareness about the environment, so he signed up for a one-day training course to become an ambassador of Plant-for-the Planet.
What’s happening in the environment is unpredictable. It’s a scary time to be a kid. But Kau doesn’t think it has to be.
The planet will find a way if people can learn to work together, he said. It is an idea he is trying to instill (逐渐灌输) by giving regular environmental speeches and planting trees.
“I’m not scared of the future of the planet, because I’m going to help the planet,” he said. “I’m going to do this. I’m going to go forward with this project. You don’t have to be scared.”
He’s already planted seven trees. And he’s excited to plant more.
“I don’t know why I love nature, but if I stopped planting trees, I would be sad,” he said.
4. Why does the author mention the natural disasters in paragraph 1
A. To give some background to Kau ’s action.
B. To introduce the problems Kau ’s family is facing.
C. To stress the importance of protecting the planet.
D. To show the effects of human activities on the planet.
5. What can be learned about Plant-for-the-Planet
A. It was based in Brazil. B. It was founded by Kau .
C. It has a history of 20 years. D. It has achieved its original goal.
6. What is the purpose of Kau ’s speeches
A. To inspire people to take a training course.
B. To attract people to Plant-for-the-Planet.
C. To instill the idea of working hard into children.
D. To encourage people to protect the environment together.
7. Which of the following can best describe Kau
A. Helpful and patient. B. Positive and creative.
C. Responsible and determined. D. Smart and brave.
C
Most highly skilled fields have rude names for beginners. And yet there has never been a better time to be a beginner. Learning platforms such as Coursera Skillshare and Duolingo sell you an experience that you can fit around your busy life, achieving mastery in a short time.
In this book Beginners, Tom Vanderbilt joins the growing army of beginners. Stuck in mid-career growth, he decides to spend a year learning new skills. He hires a singing teacher and joins the Britpop Choir. He takes up drawing, then surfing. He learns to juggle (玩杂耍). With the help of a jeweler, he even makes his own wedding ring. None of these attempts turn into life-changing passions. They are simply done for fun.
The motivation behind all this comes from Vanderbilt’s experience of parenthood, which can only be learned in the doing of it. All parents are beginners, and beginner teachers, clumsily (笨拙地) passing on knowledge to their children. As he watches his daughter effortlessly pick up how to swim or play chess, Vanderbilt worries that he has left it too late. “It’s hard to be old and bad at something,” as a friend, returning to swimming in middle age, puts it.
Luckily, he achieves satisfying results with relatively little painful effort. People appreciate his inexpert but improved singing because most people can’t sing very well. The title of one academic paper he cites — “Imprecise singing is widespread” — says it all. The acid (讽刺的) test is “Happy Birthday”, the most familiar song in the language and yet not easy to sing because it spans (跨越) an octave (八度音阶) and moves up and down it dramatically.
In a world where apps constantly rate us and measure our performance, so that learning anything becomes another form of work, we should enjoy the process more and worry less about the product. All Vanderbilt achieves in the end is a basic skill in various unrelated activities. But it has brought him “an enormous and almost forgotten kind of pleasure”. This book conveys that pleasure and is itself a pleasure to read.
8. What motivates Vanderbilt’s passion for learning new skills
A. His friend’s swimming comeback. B. His experience of being a parent.
C. His daughter’s advice on trying new things. D. His hope for changing the views of beginners.
9. Why does the author mention the song “Happy Birthday”
A. To indicate the importance of repetition in singing.
B. To draw attention to its popularity around the world.
C. To prove its effectiveness in testing musical memory.
D. To show the difficulty in singing even well-known songs well.
10. What does the author stress in the last paragraph
A. The need to master various unrelated skills.
B. The pleasure obtained from reading a book.
C. The importance of enjoying the learning process.
D. The significance of gaining recognition for one’s efforts.
11. What is the text
A. A news report. B. A book review.
C. A career guide. D. A research article.
D
Crows (乌鸦) can use tools and perform basic statistics, and they continue to surprise us. Earlier this year, a team of researchers from the University of Bristol found that the hooded crow, which has a grey body and black tail and head feathers (羽毛), is able to memorize the shape and size of an object after it is taken away and construct one like it. This kind of action requires the ability to form a mental template, which is basically an image in the mind of what a particular object looks like, even when that object is not present. Mental templates allow animals to create tools, which can be used to get food or make a stronger nest, both eventually leading to a better chance of survival.
For their study, Sarah Jelbert and her coworkers first trained three hooded crows to recognize pieces of paper of different sizes and colors. To do this, they exposed the birds to “template” pieces of paper in different colors and sizes for several minutes before removing them and then rewarded the birds for dropping small pieces that matched these templates into a long narrow opening. The crows were next given the opportunity to make versions of these objects in exchange for a reward. The researchers found that all three crows made objects that matched the original template object they had been rewarded for in both color and size.
“Unlike humans, who regularly copy each other’s behavior, we don’t have much evidence that crows will watch each other and copy what another crow is doing,” Jelbert says. However, young crows often steal their parents’ tools. So it’s possible that these crows learn how to make different types of tools from experience, stealing their parents’ tools, using them to remember what these tools look like, and then trying to create something similar, Jelbert believes.
12. Which of the following best illustrates a mental template
A. A monkey swinging from branch to branch. B. A cat getting back the food it hid.
C. A crow sleeping in its nest. D. A dog playing with a ball.
13. What did the crows do in the study
A. They performed basic statistics. B. They were trained to do magic tricks.
C. They matched and reproduced objects. D. They observed and copied one another.
14. What can we infer from young crows’ stealing incidents
A. These are social motivations. B. They may fall into an annoying habit.
C. They come into conflict with their parents. D. These are opportunities for acquiring skills.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text
A Crows communicate in a unique language B. Hooded crows use more tools than other birds
C Crows are even smarter than we thought D. Hooded crows identify sizes and colors with ease

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
Like many, I travel a lot for work. Unlike many, I never get tired of it. On the open road are always interesting people and new places. ____16____ When I travel, I wait to board the plane, wait in restaurants, wait to check into hotels, and on and on.
____17____ When a line forms, nearly everyone pulls out their phone to kill the time, playing games, checking email, and, especially, scrolling (滚屏) social media. You might think that this solution must work, but in fact it might not work at all.
In one study, researchers found as people’s boredom increased, they used their phones more, but it only increased their boredom. Your phone may attract your attention, but after the first few seconds, you may find that it really isn’t much more interesting than staring at the wall. ____18____
If this solution is not helpful, looking within ourselves could be a better bet. ____19____ The most common definition of this is a thinking technique in which one continuously focuses on the present moment. You will find that putting down your phone and deliberately (故意地) taking note of what you observe will lower the discomfort from boredom.
The best way to lower the misery of waiting, then, turns out to be not to change the world but to change oneself. ____20____ Most of us go about our days feeling dissatisfied with the world because it is failing in some way to meet our preferences. But on a moment’s reflection, we realize how foolish it is to suppose that it might. To do so is like canoeing (划独木舟) and complaining about the river’s bends instead of following them.
A. It’s about practicing being mindful.
B. Meanwhile, it consumes your energy.
C. That insight can apply not just to waiting but to life itself.
D. The expense and inconvenience of these things are permanent.
E. Think of the last time you waited in an airport for a long-delayed flight.
F. However, one thing about travel that has bothered me is the constant waiting.
G. One waiting strategy most people have turned to of late is distraction by device.

Wyatt’s ____23____ love for sewing didn’t end with his ____24____. For Christmas he asked his mom for a sewing machine. That way, ____25____ buying new clothes, he could change and personalize the ones he already ____26____!
Wyatt had been sharing his creations on social media, and the positive feedback he received gave him the ____27____ he needed to start his own brand, Sparked Apparel.
As of today, Wyatt ____28____ Sparked Apparel from his parents’ basement. But ____29____ he has enough money saved, he wants to sign a lease (租约) on a space only for his ____30____. This certainly isn’t the path this 19-year-old ____31____ he’d take in life, but it’s certainly one he takes ____32____ in.
“If you had ____33____ me, when I was in high school getting taught how to sew, that I would be sewing, I would have ____34____ you,” Wyatt said. “But now, after high school, I grow up a little bit and ____35____ that everyone does their own thing, everyone finds their own journey in life, and so far this is mine.”

“Daddy! Daddy!” Betsy shouted, bouncing down the stairs two at a time with hair flying and eyes shining. “Guess what! Mrs. Billings, my teacher, put up a great big paper tree trunk (树干) on the wall. Every time somebody does something good and receives a compliment (夸奖), he gets to put a branch with his name on it on the tree.”
“Sounds interesting,” said Daddy. “Did you get a compliment today ”
“No, but Toby did. He washed all the colored chalk off the desks. I sure hope I will get a compliment tomorrow.”
At school the next day Patricia got a compliment for erasing all the chalkboards, and Matt got a compliment for doing his best writing. Yet Betsy did not get a compliment.
The following day started out no better. When Betsy leaned back (仰靠) in her chair to stretch, she lost her balance and fell over with a loud crash. At lunchtime she accidentally knocked over Ronnie’s milk. “I’ll never get a compliment this way,” she thought sadly.
At the end of the day Mrs. Billings passed out some math tests the children had done the day before. “Boys and girls, only one person got 100 points in the math test. Congratulations, Betsy! Come up and get a branch to put on the Compliment Tree.”
“Oh, boy!” Betsy cried excitedly.
After school she ran home as fast as she could, her math test held tightly in one fist. “Guess what, Daddy! Guess what!” Betsy breathlessly poured out her good news.
Later that evening, as Betsy looked happily at her math test with the gold star on it, her eyes stopped at the answer to one of the problems. “Oh, no!” she sighed. “Look, Daddy! I made a mistake! See ”
“Well, it looks like you have a decision to make, Betsy,” said Daddy.
“But I don’t want to lose my compliment!” Betsy said quietly.
You’re old enough to know what’s right, Betsy,” said Daddy. He put his arm around her and added, “If I know my girl, she’ll make the right choice.”
注意：1. 续写词数应为150个左右；
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
The next day Betsy walked to school very slowly.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
At the end of the day, Mrs. Billings announced that Betsy could receive a special branch.

46. Dear fellow students,
To create a more eco-friendly environment for us all, our school is launching the “Greener Campus, Shared Responsibility” campaign.
We can start with daily actions: turn off lights and taps when not in use, use reusable bottles and bags to reduce plastic waste, and take part in tree-planting activities. It’s also helpful to remind classmates to sort garbage and recycle paper properly.
Every small step adds up. Let’s take our shared responsibility and work together — your participation will make our campus greener and healthier.

47. 范文
The next day Betsy walked to school very slowly. Reaching the classroom door, her heart pounded. Taking a deep breath, Betsy approached Mrs. Billings’ desk. “Mrs. Billings,” she said quietly, holding out the test, “I found a mistake. I shouldn’t have gotten 100 or the branch.” Mrs. Billings looked at the paper, then at Betsy’s earnest face. A warm smile spread across her face. “Thank you for telling me, Betsy,” she said gently. “That was very honest.” Betsy felt a knot in her stomach loosen, though the loss of the branch still stung.
At the end of the day, Mrs. Billings announced that Betsy could receive a special branch. Before dismissal, Mrs. Billings gathered the class. “Children,” she began, “Betsy discovered a mistake on her perfect math test and bravely chose to tell me about it, even knowing it meant she might lose her Compliment Tree branch.” Mrs. Billings continued, “Because Betsy showed such remarkable honesty, she deserves a very special branch on our Compliment Tree — one for doing what was right, even when it was hard.” She handed Betsy a bright green branch. A wave of happiness washed over Betsy, brighter than the gold star had ever made her feel.
