I work with Volunteers for Wildlife， a rescue and education organization at Bailey Arboretum in Locust Valley.Trying to help injured， displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking； survival is never certain.However， when it works， it is simply beautiful.
I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown.She had found a young owl on the ground.When I arrived， I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl.It had already been placed in a carrier for safety.
I examined the chick and it seemed fine.If I could locate the nest， I might have been able to put it back， but no luck.My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.
The homeowner was very helpful.A wire basket was found.I put some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and comfortable.I placed the chick in the nest， and it quickly calmed down.
Now all that was needed were the parents， but they were absent.I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks.These advertise the presence of chicks to adults； they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well.I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring.
A nervous night to be sure， but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all！ The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings.I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active.And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all — LUNCH！ The parents had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.
24.What is unavoidable in the author’s rescue work according to Paragraph 1？
A.Efforts made in vain. B.Getting injured in his work.
C.Feeling uncertain about his future. D.Creatures forced out of their homes.
25.Why was the author called to Muttontown？
A.To rescue a woman. B.To take care of a woman.
C.To look at a baby owl. D.To cure a young owl.
26.What made the chick calm down？
A.A new nest. B.Some food.
C.A recording. D.Its parents.
27.How would the author feel about the outcome of the event？
A.It’s unexpected. B.It’s beautiful.
C.It’s humorous. D.It’s discouraging.

Have you ever had the feeling that you can’t think when there is too much noise around？ Did you ever think a fish could experience that feeling too？ A recent paper published in Science titled “Soundscape （声景） of the Anthropocene Oceans”， combined over 10，000 scientific papers， confirming that undersea life knows that exact same feeling， more often than not.Anthropogenic （人为的） ocean noise， also known as underwater noise pollution， has created a dramatic impact on marine life due to “human-caused” activity within and neighboring our oceans.
Disney Pixar’s animated film Finding Nemo educated us about the ocean， and specifically within the ordinary world of a clown fish.A fact many may not know is that clown fish spend the first part of their lives as larvae （幼体）， drifting with the current of the ocean until they become strong enough to swim against it.Once they are powerful and strong， they head home in sheltered coral reefs.There is only one drawback — the fish can’t physically see the reef， but they can hear it.The only problem is， if they can’t hear it， will they ever make it home？
Our anthropogenic ocean noise， such as cargo ships， ship and boat propellers （螺旋桨）， surfing， deep sea mining， etc.are causing destruction of marine life.According to Time， sound is the sensory signal that travels the farthest through the ocean.Anthropogenic noise drowns out the natural soundscapes， putting marine life under immense stress.Altogether， this stress then affects their general health， disrupts their behavior， physiology， reproduction and， in extreme cases， causes death.Marine life can adapt to noise pollution， however， only if they can escape it.This only renders further complications of forcing species to leave their traditional breeding regions or their families.
Now， what if we told you there is already a solution？ Multiple solutions， ideas and designs are currently in the works or already exist to reduce and reverse the damage of anthropogenic ocean noise.As Time explains， from wind-powered ships to noise-reducing propellers， floating wind turbines and “bubble curtains” that muffle construction noise， the solutions are already available and in some cases， cost-effective.The authors of the paper hope it will catch the attention of policymakers， who historically speaking， have ignored the matter still to this day.
Of all the challenges ocean creatures are battling， luckily sound pollution is the easiest compromise （妥协方案） humans can make.Once the noise has decreased， marine life will be able to better manage everything else it is up against.
28.What do we know about “Soundscape of the Anthropocene Oceans”？
A.It analyses how sound travels in the ocean.
B.It discusses different types of ocean pollution.
C.It explores the effects of noise pollution on sea life.
D.It studies how sea animals communicate with each other.
29.Why does the author mention clown fish in Paragraph 2？
A.To present their life cycles.
B.To show how terrible their living conditions are.
C.To introduce a famous animation about the ocean world.
D.To stress the importance of natural soundscapes to sea life.
30.What does the underlined word “renders” probably mean in Paragraph 3？
A.Reduces. B.Causes.
C.Solves. D.Prevents.
31.What’s the author’s purpose in writing the article？
A.To publicize the knowledge of soundscape.
B.To regulate human’s activities on the ocean.
C.To emphasize the importance of animal protection.
D.To draw people’s attention to anthropogenic ocean noise.
D
When you go on vacation next time， make sure to take lots of pictures of the wildlife you see.These photos can help save different types of wildlife because of a new field called “imageomies”.Imageomies uses computers to study pictures of wildlife and learn information from them.
Until recently， scientists didn’t have the technology to analyze the data in wildlife photos.But now， machine learning and computer vision are helping researchers unlock valuable information hidden in these images.
There are platforms where people can share their wildlife photos， like eBird， iNaturalist and Wildbook.These platforms help scientists keep track of different species and create databases.If you have rare （稀有的） photos of wildlife， it’s a good idea to share them on these platforms.
Scientists have limited time and resources to study all endangered wildlife in the world.By using artificial intelligence to analyze public photos， we can learn more about different species and their behaviors.This technology can even help us find things in photos that humans might miss.
It’s important to use the collected information responsibly and protect it from poachers.If we do that， imageomies can not only help save wildlife but also contribute to other fields like medicine and agriculture.
32.How can imageomies help scientists study wildlife？
A.By offering information from wildlife.
B.By analyzing the data in wildlife photos.
C.By analyzing the trend of human population.
D.By knowing the origin of biological processes.
33.What are the platforms where people can share their wildlife photos？
A.EBird， iNaturalist and Wildbook.
B.Imageomics， eBird and Wildbook.
C.Imageomics， eBird and iNaturalist.
D.Photos of wildlife， iNaturalist and Wildbook.
34.Why should people share their rare wildlife photos on platforms？
A.To appreciate the beauty of wildlife.
B.To contribute to the public safety.
C.To inspire others to protect nature.
D.To help scientists study wildlife.
35.Which can be the best title for the text？
A.Computers Help Identify the Biological Features
B.Poachers Stop Killing Threatened Animals
C.Photos Can Save Wild Species
D.Photos Can Protect Our Environment

Four Tips for Using Less Plastic
As we all know， the world has a plastic problem — and it is increasing.Scientists are working to find along-term solution by making plastic more biodegradable （生物可降解的）. 36
Quit using plastic bags. 37 People use a trillion plastic bags worldwide every year. About 10 per cent a reused in the United States alone.That’s almost one bag per American per day.In contrast， the average Danish uses four single-use bags per year.Today， other countries （such as Germany and New Zealand） either make customers pay for plastic bags or have stopped using them completely.
38 Today， around 8.3 billion plastic straws （吸管） pollute the world’s beaches.So when you order a drink， say “no” to the straw， or bring your own reusable one.In 2018， Seattle became the first major US city to ban plastic straws， and many other cities are set to follow its example.
Don’t use plastic bottles.Buy a reusable bottle and fill it with any type of drink you like.Some cities， like Bundanoon in Australia and San Francisco in the US， have completely or partially （部分地） started quitting bottled water. 39
Avoid plastic packaging.Buy bar soap instead of liquid soap in plastic containers.Don’t buy fruit or vegetables in plastic packaging. 40 They also want to tax plastic take-out containers.
A.Don’t use plastic straws.
B.Don’t pollute the beaches.
C.Instead， take your own reusable shopping bag to the store.
D.Therefore， pollution has been largely decreased across the world.
E.In the UK， leaders are calling for supermarkets to have plastic-free areas.
F.Globally， however， people still buy nearly a million plastic bottles every minute.
G.But in the meantime， here are four things you can do to reduce plastic waste now.

If you’re one of those people planning to do something helpful in honor of Earth Day， you may be wondering what 56 （exact） you can do.We’ve got 10 great 57 （way） to roll up your sleeves and get to work， whether you have five minutes， five hours 58 want to form habits that will last a lifetime.
Since our cars are some of the 59 （great） sources of pollution in our daily lives， it makes sense to start there.Even if you have 60 short trip to work， driving to and 61 work could still be a major contributor to pollution.For example， a person drives 10 miles each way， 62 means he consumes about 1 gallon of gas for the round trip at least.
But that single gallon of gas sends 20 pounds of carbon dioxide into the air.That’s because 1 gallon of gas 63 （weigh） about 6.3 pounds and that produces 20 pounds of carbon dioxide when 64 （burn）. So by not burning that 1 gallon， you’ll keep 20 pounds of greenhouse gas out of the air.
So how will you get around？ Consider 65 （take） the bus or train， working from home for the day， or riding your bike if possible.Then you’ll be getting healthier with the planet.

Welcome to Student Life！ Today we’re going to talk about setting up a project of student jobs in your school. Having students do different jobs around the school is a great way to prepare them for life in the real world. It encourages them to be responsible and also helps them learn new tasks and gain experience.
However， it’s important to get students excited about the project， so the first thing you should do is let students know this project. Get the headmaster to make an announcement explaining the project. OK？
Then decide on the jobs you want and write out the descriptions of the skills and responsibilities needed for each position. Some typical jobs are Classroom Assistants， Recycling Officers and Computer Assistants. Next， ask students to apply for the jobs. Students should be encouraged to write letters of application for the job they are interested in. This is a great way to practice letter writing skills. And don’t forget you should make sure students are guided by a teacher. A committee then reviews all the applications and gives jobs to the most suitable applicants. Finally， it’s important to get opinions from students about the project， and to find out which jobs are successful and which don’t go well.

Dear classmates，
The World Earth Day is coming.It is an international day that usually falls on 22 April every year.Its goal is to raise people’s awareness about the environmental problems.
There are some ways we can do to improve our living environment.First， plant more trees and flowers， which are pleasing to the environment.Second， turn off the lights when we leave the room.It is a good way to save energy.Third， walk or ride a bike to school instead of taking a car to reduce exhaust gas.I hope all the students in our school will take an active part in protecting the environment.
Let’s protect our environment together！
Yours，

参考范文：
Marcenia decided to give Mr Street a reason to change his mind. Every day Marcenia played baseball， and every day Mr Street refused to invite her to his camp.However， Marcenia insisted that the key was to focus on her dreams， instead of the hardships she encountered along the way.Then came a day when she decided to take the biggest chance in a game.All her energy was put and all her concentration was fixed on the field.Eventually， she scored the winning run！ While her teammates cheered for her， Marcenia eagerly faced Mr Street.
Mr Street waved Marcenia over and handed a new shoe box to her. He said in a firm voice， “You’re a great ballplayer！ Welcome to my camp！” Marcenia’s eyes widened as he pulled out a shoe with each hand.These were real baseball cleats！ “Thank you， Mr Street！” Marcenia was so excited that she could barely squeeze out the words.Hugging the shoes to her chest， she unbuckled her street shoes and laced on her new cleats.They fit perfectly.She ran and jumped in them.She was on her way to becoming a real baseball player.Since then， she has learned fulfilling one’s dream has nothing to do with age， gender or the thoughts or expectations of others， but a firm belief.

（Text 1）
M：Jane， I’ve heard you plan to buy a new smartphone.
W：Yes， but I haven’t saved enough. The phone costs 680 dollars，
but I have 550. My sister said she would help me.
（Text 2）
M：Shall we go to watch a football game this afternoon？
W：I can’t agree more. But I have to go to the grocery first to pick up
some drinks and eggs for my mother.
（Text 3）
M：Madam， don’t panic. Could you tell me how the accident
happened？
W：I was riding a bike along the side of the road when a car on the main
road turned right and knocked me down off the bike. I didn’t see it until
it hit me.
（Text 4）
W：With Teachers’ Day around the corner， I miss Mr Right. He
treated us like his child.
M：Me too. I remember he took care of me when I was ill.
（Text 5）
M：Lisa wins first prize in the English competition.
W：Really？ That’s wonderful. I’m so happy for her.
M：But I always feel disappointed. I have many problems with English
learning.
（Text 6）
M：Carol， you look worried. Why？
W：Look at the screen.
M：What is happening？
W：Our flight to Sydney will be delayed for 3 hours， so now it won’t
depart until 1 pm. But we have a meeting at night.
M：That shouldn’t be a problem. The meeting doesn’t begin until 8
o’clock in the evening. But we have another problem.
W：What is it？
M：We won’t have time to take a tour of the city. I have been looking
forward to it for a long time.
W：What a pity！ However， we can look around it next time.
（Text 7）
M：Mom， I want to move out.
W：It sounds great to me， kid. What kind of job did you find？
M：Job？
W：Yes， job. If you’re going to live on your own， you have to pay
for the rent and everything else.
M：I thought I could just get you and Dad to pay for an apartment.
W：When you move out， your father and I aren’t paying your rent，
young man. Get a job.
M：You’re right. If I’m going to live on my own， I have to be
independent.
W：Well， the newspaper is over there.
（Text 8）
W：Would you like to go to the Grand Theatre with me？Here are two
tickets for an opera there.
M：That’s great. Have you ever been to the Grand Theatre before？
W：No， but I heard it’s a famous and beautiful theatre.
M：Is it true that the opera is sung in a foreign language？
W：Yes， usually in Italian or French.
M：Not good for me. As you know， I can only speak English and a little
German besides my mother tongue. I can hardly speak Italian and French.
W：It doesn’t matter. The actors also tell the story with their moves.
M：Sounds good， but I’m still afraid I can’t understand.
W：Take it easy. Music is a universal language.
M：Yes， the music is supposed to be beautiful.
（Text 9）
W：I am told that you took some kids to go camping last week， did
you？
M：Yes， it lasted three days.
W：Did the children enjoy the holiday camp or were they homesick？
M：Well， I must admit some of the younger kids were a bit unhappy
because they’d never been away from their home on their own before.
But soon they recovered. At the end， they even didn’t want to go
home.
W：What sorts of things did you do with them？
M：There were some trips， including a visit to Hardwick Hall. That was
what we did on the first day. I think they expected it to be boring，
especially when they heard that was a guided tour. But they were wrong，
for the guide was interesting. His stories really made the history of the
castle alive.
W：I can imagine it. By the way， what sorts of sports activities did you
do？
M：A lot. Sailing， climbing， horse-riding and the like. On the last day
we had a barbecue （户外烧烤）， which was their favorite. The kids
liked it very much. They all hoped to come again next year.
W：That sounds interesting and impressive.
（Text 10）
Welcome to Student Life！ Today we’re going to talk about setting
up a project of student jobs in your school. Having students do different
jobs around the school is a great way to prepare them for life in the real
world. It encourages them to be responsible and also helps them learn new
tasks and gain experience.
However， it’s important to get students excited about the project，
so the first thing you should do is let students know this project. Get the
headmaster to make an announcement explaining the project. OK？
Then decide on the jobs you want and write out the descriptions of the
skills and responsibilities needed for each position. Some typical jobs are
Classroom Assistants， Recycling Officers and Computer Assistants.
Next， ask students to apply for the jobs. Students should be encouraged
to write letters of application for the job they are interested in. This is a
great way to practice letter writing skills. And don’t forget you should
make sure students are guided by a teacher. A committee then reviews all
the applications and gives jobs to the most suitable applicants. Finally，
it’s important to get opinions from students about the project， and to
find out which jobs are successful and which don’t go well.

Angkor Wat is the world’s largest religious （宗教的） monument
and it contains impressive remains from the Khmer Empire （9th to 15th
century）.The site has dozens of iconic temples like Ta Prohm （a
magnificent temple ruin hidden in the jungle）.Hosting more than two
million visitors annually， this artistic masterpiece is a must-see site，
Petra， Jordan
Petra’s rock-cut architecture has contributed to its nickname， the
Rose City， based on the color of the stone it was carved from.The
delicate constructions of temples and tombs along with the remains of
churches and temples are only a couple of reasons why this world-famous
site is a must-visit destination.
Yellowstone National Park， USA
Yellowstone’s vast wilderness includes mountain ranges， lakes and
waterfalls.One of the main reasons for tourists to visit Yellowstone is to
observe the amazing wildlife like grizzly bear， bison， bighorn sheep
wander the plains and valleys.

I work with Volunteers for Wildlife， a rescue and education
organization at Bailey Arboretum in Locust Valley.Trying to help
injured， displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking； survival is
never certain.However， when it works， it is simply beautiful.
I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown.She had found a
young owl on the ground.When I arrived， I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl.It had already been placed in a carrier for safety.
I examined the chick and it seemed fine.If I could locate the nest， I
might have been able to put it back， but no luck.My next work was to
construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.
The homeowner was very helpful.A wire basket was found.I put
some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and
comfortable.I placed the chick in the nest， and it quickly calmed down.
Now all that was needed were the parents， but they were absent.I
gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl
chicks.These advertise the presence of chicks to adults； they might also
encourage our chick to start calling as well.I gave the owner as much
information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might
bring.
A nervous night to be sure， but sometimes the spirits of nature smile
on us all！ The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to
the recordings.I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy
and active.And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of
all — LUNCH！ The parents had done their duty and would probably
continue to do so.

Have you ever had the feeling that you can’t think when there is too
much noise around？ Did you ever think a fish could experience that
feeling too？ A recent paper published in Science titled “Soundscape
（声景） of the Anthropocene Oceans”， combined over 10，000
scientific papers， confirming that undersea life knows that exact same
feeling， more often than not.Anthropogenic （人为的） ocean noise，
also known as underwater noise pollution， has created a dramatic impact
on marine life due to “human-caused” activity within and neighboring
our oceans.
Disney Pixar’s animated film Finding Nemo educated us about the
ocean， and specifically within the ordinary world of a clown fish.A fact
many may not know is that clown fish spend the first part of their lives as
larvae （幼体）， drifting with the current of the ocean until they become
strong enough to swim against it.Once they are powerful and strong，
they head home in sheltered coral reefs.There is only one drawback — the
fish can’t physically see the reef， but they can hear it.The only problem
is， if they can’t hear it， will they ever make it home？
Our anthropogenic ocean noise， such as cargo ships， ship and boat
propellers （螺旋桨）， surfing， deep sea mining， etc.are causing
destruction of marine life.According to Time， sound is the sensory signal
that travels the farthest through the ocean.Anthropogenic noise drowns out
the natural soundscapes， putting marine life under immense
stress.Altogether， this stress then affects their general health， disrupts
their behavior， physiology， reproduction and， in extreme cases，
causes death.Marine life can adapt to noise pollution， however， only if
they can escape it.This only renders further complications of forcing
species to leave their traditional breeding regions or their families.
Now， what if we told you there is already a solution？ Multiple
solutions， ideas and designs are currently in the works or already exist to
reduce and reverse the damage of anthropogenic ocean noise.As Time
explains， from wind-powered ships to noise-reducing propellers，
floating wind turbines and “bubble curtains” that muffle construction
noise， the solutions are already available and in some cases， cost-
effective.The authors of the paper hope it will catch the attention of
policymakers， who historically speaking， have ignored the matter still
to this day.
Of all the challenges ocean creatures are battling， luckily sound
pollution is the easiest compromise （妥协方案） humans can
make.Once the noise has decreased， marine life will be able to better
manage everything else it is up against.

分重要的。
30. What does the underlined word “renders” probably mean in
Paragraph 3？
A. Reduces. B. Causes.
C. Solves. D. Prevents.
解析： 词义猜测题。根据第三段中的Marine life can adapt to
noise pollution， however， only if they can escape it.和画线词所在
句可知，“物种离它们的传统繁殖地更远或者与它们家族分离的
情况更加严重”是噪音污染引起的结果。所以renders意思是“引
起，造成”。
31. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the article？
A. To publicize the knowledge of soundscape.
B. To regulate human’s activities on the ocean.
C. To emphasize the importance of animal protection.
D. To draw people’s attention to anthropogenic ocean noise.
解析： 写作意图题。通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了人为海
洋噪声也称为水下噪声污染，探索了人为活动对海洋生物的影
响。由此推知，作者写这篇文章是为了引起人们对人为海洋噪声
的关注。

When you go on vacation next time， make sure to take lots of
pictures of the wildlife you see.These photos can help save different types
of wildlife because of a new field called “imageomies”.Imageomies
uses computers to study pictures of wildlife and learn information from
them.
Until recently， scientists didn’t have the technology to analyze the
data in wildlife photos.But now， machine learning and computer vision
are helping researchers unlock valuable information hidden in these
images.
There are platforms where people can share their wildlife photos，
like eBird， iNaturalist and Wildbook.These platforms help scientists
keep track of different species and create databases.If you have rare （稀
有的） photos of wildlife， it’s a good idea to share them on these
platforms.
Scientists have limited time and resources to study all endangered
wildlife in the world.By using artificial intelligence to analyze public
photos， we can learn more about different species and their
behaviors.This technology can even help us find things in photos that
humans might miss.
It’s important to use the collected information responsibly and
protect it from poachers.If we do that， imageomies can not only help
save wildlife but also contribute to other fields like medicine and
agriculture.

Four Tips for Using Less Plastic
As we all know， the world has a plastic problem — and it is
increasing.Scientists are working to find along-term solution by making
plastic more biodegradable （生物可降解的）. 36
Quit using plastic bags. 37 People use a trillion plastic bags
worldwide every year. About 10 per cent a reused in the United States
alone.That’s almost one bag per American per day.In contrast， the
average Danish uses four single-use bags per year.Today， other countries
（such as Germany and New Zealand） either make customers pay for
plastic bags or have stopped using them completely.
38 Today， around 8.3 billion plastic straws （吸管） pollute
the world’s beaches.So when you order a drink， say “no” to the
straw， or bring your own reusable one.In 2018， Seattle became the first
major US city to ban plastic straws， and many other cities are set to
follow its example.
Don’t use plastic bottles.Buy a reusable bottle and fill it with any
type of drink you like.Some cities， like Bundanoon in Australia and San
Francisco in the US， have completely or partially （部分地） started
quitting bottled water. 39
Avoid plastic packaging.Buy bar soap instead of liquid soap in plastic
containers.Don’t buy fruit or vegetables in plastic packaging. 40
They also want to tax plastic take-out containers.
A. Don’t use plastic straws.
B. Don’t pollute the beaches.
C. Instead， take your own reusable shopping bag to the store.
D. Therefore， pollution has been largely decreased across the world.
E. In the UK， leaders are calling for supermarkets to have plastic-free
areas.
F. Globally， however， people still buy nearly a million plastic bottles
every minute.
G. But in the meantime， here are four things you can do to reduce plastic
waste now.

If you’re one of those people planning to do something helpful in

can do.We’ve got 10 great 57 （way） to roll up your sleeves and
get to work， whether you have five minutes， five hours 58 want to
form habits that will last a lifetime.
Since our cars are some of the 59 （great） sources of pollution
in our daily lives， it makes sense to start there.Even if you have 60
short trip to work， driving to and 61 work could still be a major
contributor to pollution.For example， a person drives 10 miles each
way， 62 means he consumes about 1 gallon of gas for the round trip
at least.
But that single gallon of gas sends 20 pounds of carbon dioxide into
the air.That’s because 1 gallon of gas 63 （weigh） about 6.3
pounds and that produces 20 pounds of carbon dioxide when 64
（burn）. So by not burning that 1 gallon， you’ll keep 20 pounds of
greenhouse gas out of the air.
So how will you get around？ Consider 65 （take） the bus or
train， working from home for the day， or riding your bike if
possible.Then you’ll be getting healthier with the planet.

A Girl’s Baseball Dream
Marcenia Lyle loved baseball even though she couldn’t afford
baseball cleats （运动鞋）.If there was anything in the world better than
baseball， Marcenia didn’t know what it was.She dreamed of growing
up to be a professional ballplayer， so she could play ball all the time.Her
friend Harold gave his old gloves to her.Boys had teased （取笑） her
when she first started playing baseball with them.Then when they saw she
could run， hit， and throw as well as they could， the teasing
stopped.They had let her play.
One day after school Marcenia went to the playground.The boys
stood and talked quietly.They cast excited glances at the man who was
watching the field.“Do you know who he is？” Harold asked Marcenia
as she joined the group.He tipped his head towards the man.“That there
is Mr Gabby Street.He’s running a baseball camp this summer.”
Marcenia knew about Gabby Street.He was a famous coach.“What
does he want？” Marcenia asked.“Kids for his baseball camp.”
Harold said， “It’s going to be right here on the field every day except
Sunday.Sundays are game days.” “What is the cost？” Marcenia
asked.“It’s free！ It’s free！” said Clarence.“All you need is your
own glove and baseball cleats.” Harold added.Marcenia could hardly
contain her excitement.She would do anything to be one of the players in
Mr Street’s camp.
That afternoon Marcenia played with purpose.She scored three runs
just like she wanted and hit a home run.When Mr Street approached the
players after the game， Marcenia crowded in close so he could see
her.“I just saw some good ball，” Mr Street said， smiling.“Who
wants to come to my baseball camp and really learn to play this game？”
Every hand went up.Mr Street shook them all.He shook Marcenia’s
hand last.“You’ve got a good arm， little girl， and you run fast，”
he said.“I’m sorry but I don’t take girls in my camp.” Marcenia
looked down so no one would see her disappointment. She began striking dust from her dress， thinking to herself， “I must hold on to my dream.”
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式作答。
Marcenia decided to give Mr Street a reason to change his mind.
Mr Street waved Marcenia over and handed a new shoe box to her.
参考范文：
Marcenia decided to give Mr Street a reason to change his mind.
Every day Marcenia played baseball， and every day Mr Street refused to
invite her to his camp.However， Marcenia insisted that the key was to
focus on her dreams， instead of the hardships she encountered along the
way.Then came a day when she decided to take the biggest chance in a
game.All her energy was put and all her concentration was fixed on the
field.Eventually， she scored the winning run！ While her teammates
cheered for her， Marcenia eagerly faced Mr Street.
Mr Street waved Marcenia over and handed a new shoe box to her.
He said in a firm voice， “You’re a great ballplayer！ Welcome to my
camp！” Marcenia’s eyes widened as he pulled out a shoe with each
hand.These were real baseball cleats！ “Thank you， Mr Street！”
Marcenia was so excited that she could barely squeeze out the
words.Hugging the shoes to her chest， she unbuckled her street shoes
and laced on her new cleats.They fit perfectly.She ran and jumped in
them.She was on her way to becoming a real baseball player.Since then，
she has learned fulfilling one’s dream has nothing to do with age，
gender or the thoughts or expectations of others， but a firm belief.
