[参考范文]
Boys and girls,
I'd like to say something about my maths teacher,Mr Wang.At the beginning of my senior school days,I did not often get good marks in maths,but Mr Wang never scolded me.Instead,he always asked me to raise questions whenever I needed help.Every time my mother was worried about my studies,he would say,“Your child has great potential.He will get success in the future.” And under his considerate help,I successfully got high marks later.
From this case,I strongly believe that a teacher's encouragement is important to students!
Yours,

Asad was a 13-year-old boy who was very honest and hard-working.Recently,he had entered a new school,and he had no friends yet.On Monday morning,he was nearly late for school.The night before,his family attended his cousin's wedding and reached home late,which was why he couldn't get up on time as usual.
At school,Asad could not pay attention to anything and wanted the bell to ring so that he could buy something to eat.After a few hours,when the bell rang,Asad quickly opened his schoolbag to find his money,but just then he remembered that he had left for school in a hurry in the morning and forgotten to take money.He looked under his books,hoping to find some money but there was nothing.
Not knowing what to do,he walked out of the classroom and sat on a bench in front of the canteen.He saw a few of his classmates there,among them was Fahad.He was one of the richest kids in his class,but he was a very arrogant(傲慢的) boy who thought everyone else was a loser.But as Asad was new,he didn't know much about Fahad.
When he went towards Fahad and asked if he could borrow some money for his lunch,Fahad laughed a lot and said,“I knew you were a loser,maybe a beggar?”Fahad laughed out so loud that other kids also heard and made fun of the situation.He didn't answer Fahad,and slowly walked back towards an empty bench.
When he reached the bench,he noticed something lying near it.It was a wallet.He picked it up and recognized it was Fahad's,as he remembered Fahad showing it to his friends and telling that his uncle bought it for him from the UK.There was quite a lot of money inside for a kid.

Then Fahad said,“Why are you giving back?”Asad sighed,“Because it belongs to you.”After this,the air seemed still and it became strange that no one said a single word.Then to his surprise,Fahad reached out his hand,stammering,“W...What about having lunch together?”Before Asad could say anything,Fahad quickly added,“Of course,my treat.”It was on that very day that Asad made his first friend in the new school,and he truly realized the value of honesty in a relationship.

A Valuable Lesson—My Favourite Superhero
After helping his mother Mary sweep the street as usual,Jack waved goodbye to her and rushed to school.Reminding Jack of safety,Mary smiled and continued her work,with sweat streaming down.
In the classroom,Mrs Evans asked her students to make a speech with the heading of My Favourite Superhero.As for the heated topic,the class got excited,hardly waiting to share their opinions.Finally,it came to Jack's turn.“My favourite superhero,” Jack started to read in front of the class,then he stopped.He was nervous and felt a bit silly,because his classmates all talked about superheroes like Iron Man,Thor,and Wonder Woman while he was the only one who talked about a real person.
“Go on,Jack,” Mrs Evans encouraged,nodding at him with smiling eyes.
“My favourite superhero is Mary,my mum.” The class burst into laughter.Jack smiled,too,and wet his lips,“You might laugh at me for saying something like that.” He turned calm and peaceful.“But my mum is the most hard-working person in the world.She is a street sweeper for the city,always getting up before sunrise to start her job.It's her devotion that keeps the street clean,just with a broom (扫把) and her heart.With autumn coming,I realize how hard it is and that a real superhero doesn't wear a cape or go on adventures.Besides,she raised us three kids alone.She loves us in her way,and we can feel it.A real hero takes care of his family.I'm helping her before going to school and hope to grow up and be half the hero my mum is.Thank you.”
The speech over,the entire class was moved by Jake's speech and got speechless.
Finally,Mrs Evans spoke,“That was fantastic.You showed us a mother's bravery and love.Your mum should be proud!” When returning to his seat,he received thumbs-up and admiring eyes from his classmates.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
The next morning,when helping Mary as usual,Jack saw his classmates coming up.
Finally,Mrs Evans stroked Jack on the clean street.

Dieting to lose weight has become very popular in recent years.People have become more health conscious and try to take better care of their bodies by eating more healthily and exercising more regularly to lose any unnecessary fat that they may have.
Not only are people being more careful about what they eat,but they are also concerned with how they eat and how their meals are prepared.People are taking more time for each meal.Many avoid the so-called “plastic” fast-food hamburgers and choose to eat a salad or a sandwich of more healthful ingredients in a quiet restaurant with a more comfortable atmosphere.At home,they also try to take enough time to eat a relaxed dinner without phones or TV interruptions.
While dieting may be viewed as beneficial,it has also become a serious problem for Americans,particularly for young women.Dieting for them has actually become a psychological(心理的) addiction.They eat so little that they can lose as much as fifty percent of their total body weight,and although they look like skeletons,they still insist that they are fat.
The current wave of exercising,dieting and the problems produced have caused many organizations to begin educating the public.Many schools,hospitals,health organizations,newspapers and magazines,for example,are offering classes,printing articles and so on to inform the public of the way to exercise and diet,of the dangers of dieting too rapidly,and of the places people can go for medical help if they find themselves on the road to “diet addiction”.

Throughout history,many species of animals have been threatened with extinction(灭绝).When Europeans first arrived in North America,more than 60 million buffalo lived on the continent.Yet hunting the buffalo was so popular during the 19th century that by 1900 the animal's population had fallen to about 400 before the government stepped in to protect the species.In some countries today,the elephant faces a similar challenge,as illegal hunters kill the animals for the ivory in their tusks.
Yet not all animals with commercial value face this threat(威胁).The cow,for example,is a valuable source of food,but no one worries that the cow will soon be extinct.Why does the commercial value of ivory threaten the elephant,while the commercial value of beef protects the cow
The reason is that elephants are a common resource,while cows are private goods.Elephants wander freely without any owners.The hunter has a strong motivation to kill as many elephants as he can find.Because illegal hunters are numerous,each has only a slight motivation to protect the elephant population.By contrast,cattle live on farms that are privately owned.Each farmer makes great effort to maintain(维持) the cattle population on his farm because he harvests the benefit of these efforts.
Governments have tried to solve the elephants' problem in two ways.Some countries,such as Kenya and Uganda,have made it illegal to kill elephants and sell their ivory.Yet these laws have been hard to put into effect,and elephant populations have continued to decrease.By contrast,other countries,such as Malawi and Namibia,have made elephants private goods and allowed people to kill elephants,but only those on their own property.
With private ownership and the profit motive now on its side,the African elephant might someday be as safe from extinction as the cow.The ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle pointed out the problem with common resources: “What is common to many is taken least care of,for all men have greater regard for what is their own than for what they own in common with others.”
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇议论文。文章通过谈论作为公共资源的大象濒临灭绝,而作为私有财产的饲养牛却能安全生存,说明了人们对私有财产比公共资源更加关心的现象。
12.Why does the author mention buffalo in paragraph 1
A.To introduce a similar threat to elephant.
B.To provide an example of species extinction.
C.To offer an explanation for government policies.
D.To present the statistics of the buffalo in America.
A [推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Yet hunting the buffalo was so popular during the 19th century that by 1900 the animal's population had fallen to about 400 before the government stepped in to protect the species.In some countries today,the elephant faces a similar challenge,as illegal hunters kill the animals for the ivory in their tusks.”可知,作者之所以提到水牛,是为了介绍大象所面临的类似威胁。]
13.Why do elephants face threats while cows are safe
A.They are under different law protection.
B.They attract different groups of hunters.
C.They contain different commercial value.
D.They represent different ownership types.
D [细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The reason is that elephants are a common resource,while cows are private goods.Elephants wander freely without any owners.The hunter has a strong motivation to kill as many elephants as he can find.”及“By contrast,cattle live on farms that are privately owned.Each farmer makes great effort to maintain the cattle population on his farm because he harvests the benefit of these efforts.”可知,之所以大象面临威胁,而牛是安全的,是因为它们各自代表着不同的所有权类型。]
14.Which of the following can best summarize paragraph 4
A.Bans on killing elephants for ivory.
B.Effective laws for elephant protection.
C.Methods of making elephants private goods.
D.Government policies on the elephants' problem.
D [主旨大意题。根据第四段中的“Governments have tried to solve the elephants' problem in two ways.Some countries,such as Kenya and Uganda,have made it illegal to kill elephants and sell their ivory.”以及“By contrast,other countries,such as Malawi and Namibia,have made elephants private goods and allowed people to kill elephants,but only those on their own property.”可知,第四段通过举例说明各国政府对大象问题的政策。]
15.What can we learn from Aristotle's words
A.People hold little regard for others' property.
B.People want to profit from common resources.
C.People care more about what they have.
D.People tend to take what they own for granted.
C [推理判断题。根据最后一段中Aristotle所说“What is common to many is taken least care of,for all men have greater regard for what is their own than for what they own in common with others.”可推知,人们更关心自己所拥有的。]
第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分12.5分)
How to Have Better
Communication with Children
Communication works like a bee.It can produce honey or sting(刺痛).It's true. 16 To be better parents,we need to use the tool to develop better communication with our children.Go over the list and consider how it applies to you.
Preaching(说教)
“Do you think it was nice to talk to your mother that way We taught you to be respectful and you have to understand that that's not a way to talk.” 17 If you talk like that,kids will do everything to avoid your company.
Teasing
18 Something you say is only funny if everyone laughs and thinks it's funny.If not,it's not funny.Laughing with someone is great.Laughing at someone isn't great.
Threatening
“I will take your mobile phone if you don't do what I say.NO more computer. 19 You're not allowed to go to any party until you apologize.”Parents who threaten are weak.The problem your kids know you're weak,and they lose respect for you.
Comparison
Parents' comparisons typically make the children feel bad.This feeling of inadequacy(缺乏信心) remains until old age.It makes the kids try to achieve more than everyone else,and that's impossible.It also makes the kids chase goals for the sake of winning,without being true to themselves. 20
A.What parents say matters a lot!
B.Parents need to teach,not preach.
C.If you do it one more time,no pocket money for a month.
D.So even when they succeed,they don't get a sense of achievement.
E.It means you can say no with respect for their thoughts and feelings.
F.Parents sometimes say things they think are funny,but it hurts their children.
G.Our communication is the tool we have to strengthen or destroy relationship.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。沟通是一把双刃剑,文章列举了不善于与孩子沟通的父母会用到的四个方法:说教、嘲弄、威胁、攀比。
16.G [根据上文“Communication works like a bee.It can produce honey or sting.”可知,沟通就像蜜蜂一样,它可以产蜜也可以蜇人,G项与上文语义一致,符合语境。]
17.B [根据小标题“Preaching”可知,B项符合语境,话题都是“说教”。]
18.F [根据小标题“Teasing”及后文可知,F项和后文逻辑关系紧密,后文中的“Laughing at someone isn't great.”与F项中的“hurts their children”语义一致。]
19.C [根据小标题“Threatening”及后文“You're not allowed to go to any party until you apologize.”可知,家长在威胁孩子,逼迫孩子就范。C项也是威胁的方式,符合小标题和本段语境。]
20.D [根据设空处前一句“It also makes the kids chase goals for the sake of winning,without being true to themselves.”可知,D项与前一句为因果关系,前后语义连贯。]

Each of us struggles for self-respect and self-worth to some degree.I spent much time trying to achieve perfection in every aspect(方面) of my life.
I was a happy kid with a lot of friends and a supportive family.But growing up was really 21 and even scary sometimes.
During my childhood,I was always involved(牵涉进) in something that included people's views about my achievements or my 22 .I wanted everyone's praise and acceptance,but I was my own hardest critic(挑剔的人).
After I graduated from high school,my desire to be “thin” began to trouble me.I began trying to diet by 23 my food.
In the beginning,I felt great—attractive and successful,almost superhuman.I even thought that I was better than everyone else.What I didn't see was that I was slowly 24 myself.
People around me began to notice my weight loss.They said with concern,“You're losing too much weight.” “Elisa,you're so thin.” All their words only suggested that I was getting closer to “ 25 ”.
Sadly,I took my physical 26 as the first important thing in my life, 27 that it was the way to become successful and accepted.
Then I cut down my food more and more,until a 28 day made up of half a teaspoon of non-fat yoghurt and coffee in the morning,and a cup of grapes at night.
But my poor 29 began to cause me to lose 30 .Then one night,like many nights before,I couldn't sleep,and my heart felt as though it might beat out of my chest.I tried to 31 ,but I couldn't.The beating became so rapid and so strong that I could no longer 32 .What I had done to diet nearly caused me to have a heart attack;I stood up,and immediately fell down.I was really 33 ,and I knew I needed help.My roommate rushed me to the hospital,beginning the long road to my 34 .It took a lot—doctors,nurses,nutritionists,food supplements...
And most importantly,a sense of what was true about myself got back on track with reality.I realized that,with my 35 of trying to be “perfect” on the outside,I had lost who I was on the inside.What I know now is,we are—each and every one of us—already perfect.

I was lacking in everything needed to start a new friendship.
My parents moved to the town when they decided to look for new jobs,but they didn't realize I was really hurt when I said goodbye to my old friends.It felt awful to be a new student in the school,because when my classmates were chatting,what I could do was be caught up in my thoughts watching the clouds outside the window.I was not good at math or history,nor was I good at drawing or dancing.I was shy and timid(胆怯的).I had a few friends in my hometown and it seemed that they were the only ones who I could be friends with for my whole life.I felt I had reached a point where I could make no further addition to my friend list.I was ashamed of myself,so I believed I deserved no notice from others until Emily came to my world.
Emily was fearless,outspoken and easy to get along with,while I was too shy to come out of my shell.I met Emily in the school almost every day and yet I never talked to her.We were in the same class but we were poles apart(截然相反).How I wished I could be like her or at least be a friend of hers!
It was another ordinary day.I wandered to the bus stop in the morning and waited for the school bus.Birds were singing songs with their friends but who could I sing songs with?I got on the bus and went straight to my usual seat,complaining in a low voice about getting up early and going to school,and about how things were going to be the same all over again.Little did I realize something different would happen that day.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
When I got up to get off the bus,my schoolbag was stuck in the armrest.
I got noticed by Emily,who gave me courage to start a new friendship!
[参考范文]
When I got up to get off the bus,my schoolbag was stuck in the armrest.I didn't notice it and stood up with all my strength.Unluckily,my schoolbag was torn apart and all the things fell to the ground.I knelt down to pick them up.Suddenly,I saw a hand passing me some of the books.I looked up and found it was Emily who was helping me.With her help,I put all the things back to my schoolbag.I began to talk with her and was surprised to find that we had much in common.
I got noticed by Emily,who gave me courage to start a new friendship! One day when I told her that I admired her and how I wished to be a friend of hers,she said,“We have already been friends!”I felt so happy that I even sang a song.Hearing my song,she thought highly of it and asked me to teach her to sing it.She made me realize how unique I was and at last I came out of my shell.
