A woman has recalled her childhood spent “trapped” on a boat with her parents, detailing how she made her “escape”.
While her parents thought it was the trip of a lifetime and often described the opportunity as a “privilege” (特权), Suzanne has since compared it to being locked up in prison.
Now 55 years old, Suzanne has shared her tale of survival on the Internet, and recalled her 10 years at sea in her tell-all memoir Wavewalker. Despite her father assuring her the “trip would be safe”, Suzanne claimed it was “incredibly dangerous”, sharing details of a dangerous journey from South Africa to Australia where the boat hit an “enormous storm”. “The waves became bigger and bigger, and finally one crashed over the back of the boat,” she
recalled. “I was thrown, a little girl at 7, against the ceiling of the cabin and against the wall, breaking my skull and nose. Three days later, we found a tiny little island in the middle of the Indian Ocean where I had multiple head operations without anaesthetic (麻醉剂).”
In order to get through her “very strange” childhood, Suzanne recalled how she determined to get an education
to live a normal life. While remote education wasn’t an option in 1969, Suzanne enrolled in an Australian correspondence school when she was 13. Then, when she was 16, and her brother 15, her parents enrolled the two teenagers in a school in New Zealand while they continued sailing. Despite the gaps in her education, Suzanne landed a spot at Oxford University, and after saving up money she’d earned working on a farm, Suzanne bought a one-way plane ticket back to the UK.
Since going public with her story, which she was inspired to do after the death of her husband in 2018, Suzanne’s book instantly became a bestseller. Suzanne’s extraordinary tale has captured the hearts of millions. “Wavewalker is one of the best books I’ve read. I’m so sorry you went through all that,” one person replied, while another said, “Thank you! Your story inspires me and I can change my life no matter when and how.”
How does Suzanne find the ten-year journey at sea
Amusing and rewarding. B. Eventful and risky.
C. Private and plain. D. Inspiring and comforting.
Why did Suzanne decide to get an education
To get her life back on track. B. To earn enough money.
C. To change her strange childhood. D. To prove her parents wrong.
What can we learn from the last paragraph
Suzanne’s book is well received. B. Suzanne’s book gets divided opinions.
C. Suzanne’s book highlights adventurous spirits. D. Suzanne’s husband inspires her to write the book.
Which of the following is the best title for the text
A Dangerous Journey at Sea
A Success Story of a Brave Woman
A Best-seller Describes an Incredible Experience
A Woman Trapped on a Boat for a Decade Details “Escape”
C
Historically, bat migration has been a bit of a black box. “They’re fast and they move at night,” says Edward Hurme, a biologist at the Max Planck Institute for Animal Behavior in Germany. “Once they disappear from an area, we don’t necessarily have the ability to figure out where they show up again.” Bats are also smaller than many migrating birds, meaning they are unable to tolerate the weight of the sort of tracking devices that researchers attach to birds for monitoring purposes.
So Hurme and his colleagues had to design one. They created specialized devices weighing just over 1g that measure how the animal is moving, as well as temperature. Unlike some other devices, which measure animal movements but must be recovered by scientists to download the data, these new ones broadcast their information to a wireless network. That allows the researchers to work out their position and follow the bats’ journey.
In total, the team equipped 71 female bats with these sensors. When the researchers paired their tracking data with climate data, they noticed a curious connection. “We found that a lot of bats are actually migrating before storms come through,” says Hurme. In the spring, storms typically follow warm fronts that generate strong winds that usually blow in the right direction for migration.
Long-distance migration can take a lot of energy, but these bats have found some assistance. They time their springtime departure to happen at the same time as warm fronts that lead storms. These winds tend to blow in the general northeasterly direction of the bat migration this time of year, giving the bats, which weigh about an ounce, a significant lift. “We noted that bats were responding to good wind conditions, but we didn’t think that there was a connection with storms,” Hurme says. The researchers have yet to find out what signals the bats are using to time their departures.
More broadly, it is within Hurme’s vision that an increasing number of research groups begin using the tiny bat tags on other bat species. Ultimately, that sort of work could contribute to the conservation of bats. By understanding when and where they migrate, researchers could construct bat migration forecasts, which could help energy companies shut down turbines ( 涡轮机) during the bats’ migratory periods, or avoid building in certain areas altogether, he says.
Why has bat migration been a bit of a black box
Bats are too small to be detected. B. Bats’ movement is hard to monitor.
C. Bats fly at high speed in packs. D. Bats’ bodies are too weak for devices.
What does the second paragraph mainly discuss
The urgency of innovation. B. The features of the new trackers.
C. The complexity of the particular design. D. The improvement of researching methods. 30．Why do bats begin their migration prior to the arrival of storms
A. To find the appropriate route. B. To migrate against the winds.
C. To lower energy consumption. D. To avoid the disastrous storms.
What’s Hurme’s anticipation
A. Research on more species. B. Increasing production of turbines.
C. Wide application of the new devices. D. Enhancing awareness of animal conservation.
D
A challenge of teaching mathematics rather than, say, history is that the homework is a lot harder to come up with. After all, “Was Henry VIII a good king ” is a reasonable question to ask either a classroom of nine-year-olds or a lecture theatre of postgraduates. But “Solve this quadratic equation (二次方程式)” would leave the classroom nonplussed and the lecture theatre unimpressed. Maths is learned by doing and designing a problem that is easy enough to be accessible, yet hard enough to be satisfying, is a big headache in itself.
Partly for this reason, books that successfully communicate how mathematicians think, but are aimed at those not already in the field, are both valuable and rare. Now Sir David Spiegelhalter, professor of statistics at the University of Cambridge, has added to the category with The Art of Uncertainty. His new book will appeal to many more than just mathematicians, for its topic is universal: how to analyse chance, uncertainty and risk.
If a new virus is running wild and the majority of deaths are among those who have received a newer vaccine (疫苗), is that evidence that the vaccination program is harmful How much of top football teams’ performance comes down to luck rather than skill Professor Spiegelhalter’s exploration of such questions is delightful. First, he uses them to illustrate broader ideas about how probability and statistics work. So a discussion of vaccine safety proceeds to Bayes’s theorem, a procedure for improving one’s judgment of probabilities as new evidence comes to light. The joy of Professor Spiegelhalter’s approach is that he reaches this deep truth through nothing more than some intuitive (直觉的) assumptions and very simple maths.
Most important, though, is Professor Spiegelhalter’s skill at communicating these ideas. Much of probability
and statistics can go against our intuition, and the maths behind it is often fearsome. But this is not a difficult book to read or understand.
What does the underlined word “nonplussed” in paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Impressed. B. Inspired. C. Confused. D. Amused.
What is the biggest selling point of The Art of Uncertainty according to the author
It casts light on math thoughts. B. It covers various topics.
C. It makes sense to ordinary people. D. It satisfies maths professionals.
Why does the author mention Bayes’s theorem in paragraph 3
To prove the reliability of intuition. B. To reveal the book’s academic nature.
C. To underline the deep truth of judgement. D. To show Spiegelhalter’s writing approach.
What is the text mainly about
A popular mathematician. B. A discussion of risk management.
C. An introduction to academic teaching. D. A book on understanding probability.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Wildlife documentaries are known for offering breathtaking images of animals in their natural habitats. You might be thinking that these shows offer a totally real portrayal of these animals－an objective window into their lives as they hunt, rest and raise their young. 36 While the images we see are filmed on location, many of the sounds are recorded in a sound studio and added to the programs later by human “Foley artists (拟音师)”.
This is an unavoidable outcome of modern wildlife filmmaking. Usually, documentary filmmakers can film their subjects from a great distance, but they typically can’t get close enough to capture clear sounds without disturbing the animals. Wildlife documentaries also tend to require large crews. 37 For example, crew members chatting or walking around can be included if sounds are recorded on location. In other cases, the animals might make sounds of a frequency or volume that most microphones simply can’t capture clearly.
38 And most of them will create the close-up sounds of animals chewing or yawning with their own mouths. These sounds are created as the artist watches the videos, making sure they perfectly match the actions they’re paired with. 39 Animal cries — which are far too complex to be simulated — will have to be taken from library recordings.
Watching “Foley artists” at work on wildlife projects gives me a thrill like the one we get when we see how a magic trick is done. Admittedly, the significance of the technique goes further. 40 Sounds have the
ability to affect our understanding of a given species.
But this isn’t quite the case.
There are some exceptions, though.
The filmmakers can achieve the effects.
There will probably be background noises.
Sounds guide our emotional interpretation of the things we see.
How it is introduced in documentaries may also make a difference.
“Foley artists” will use a variety of tools to simulate (模拟) the sounds made by animals.

One typical day, I was driving my Uber as usual. In the backseat sat two teen boys, fascinated by their phones. I could hear every word each phone 41 . Neither passenger appeared to be 42 by the competing content of the other’s, but I could 43 hear the navigation’s directions.
I asked, “Excuse me, do you have 44 ” “No...” “OK, could you turn down the volume I just can’t hear the driving directions.”
Both of them turned down the volume as I 45 . In fact, I often encounter similar situations on the subway, in airports, and in the back of my car. They play digital content — 46 only for their own viewing or listening—loudly, 47 everyone within close range to put up with the 48 . Undoubtedly, there is a simple solution to this rude behavior: wearing headphones. From my perspective, the key is not a pair of headphones that anyone can get, but regaining the politeness and 49 we ought to have.
Because cellphones have become widespread so quickly in modern life and self-awareness is praised by everyone like common knowledge in a 50 , the resulting issue of public interests, which is affected by such behavior, is often 51 . Even so, I still believe that we only need to 52 how and when we use our phones to make necessary 53 . This is merely a matter of awareness, not something unavoidable.
Decades ago, smoking in public did not cause 54 the way it does when such behavior happens today. Similarly, we will definitely see the day when everyone feels embarrassed about making noise themselves — or their phones making noise — in public. That day will 55 come.

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。
Sometimes things don’t go as planned, but that doesn’t mean they can’t still be wonderful in their own way. My parents and I had spent a long time researching summer camps online and finally we picked out one where I could design games, animate (把...制作成动画) characters, and learn other cool coding (编程) skills.
Mom said, “I like the idea of you using that clever brain of yours more, but I also hope you can get plenty of
fresh air.” “Campers can choose to hike every afternoon!” I said as I clicked on the registration form.
Weeks later, my parents dropped me off at the camp, which I thought would be a week full of non-stop computer-coding fun. When I arrived at the check-in table, I met a camper of my age named Halley — he was wearing an adorable sunhat. He greeted me, “We’re in the same group — Group 7!” Led by an advisor, we followed the green arrows to the campsite.
On the way, I was surprised to find it was very cool there, filled with the fresh, woodsy smell. Halley and I talked about our expectations for the camp activities. He excitedly mentioned the small animals he loved to observe and something about watching the night sky.
“You’ve given me a great idea!” I said. “I’ll base the animated characters I design on the animals you mentioned!” Halley asked, “I’m a bit confused — what exactly are these characters you’re talking about ”
“You know, the characters we’ll be designing and animating on computers this week!” I said. “Uh, sorry, I still don’t get it,” Halley said. “Why would we do computer stuff at a Nature Camp ”
It was then that I realized there must have been a mistake — I must have accidentally clicked on the wrong online form when registering! I rushed back to the welcome table right away to see if I could switch to Tech Camp, but obviously, it was already completely full.
注意:
续写词数应为 150 左右；
请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Para.1: When I met Halley again, I forced a smile.
Para. 2: “Okay, I’ll give it a try!” I said as I looked at Halley.

Dear Peter,
I’m thrilled to get your practice video for the Chinese poetry recital contest—your passion for Chinese poetry really shows! I’m writing to share small suggestions that might help you do even better.
After watching, I found two points to adjust: first, you mispronounced a few ancient words, like “jiu” (wine) sounding a bit like “ju”; second, your rhythm was too fast, especially in the middle verses, which weakened the poem’s gentle mood. For improvement, listen to professional recitals online to copy correct pronunciations and pause briefly at each couplet’s end to stress the poem’s rise and fall.
Keep practicing, and you’ll stand out! If you have more questions or want to share another video, just reach out anytime.
Yours, Li Hua
Possible version：
Para.1: When I met Halley again, I forced a smile. I told him about my mistake—how I’d signed up for Nature Camp by accident instead of Tech Camp. Halley’s eyes widened at first, but then he patted my shoulder gently. “Nature Camp is awesome too!” he said, pulling out a small notebook filled with sketches of squirrels and fireflies. “We can watch birds at dawn, collect pinecones, and even stargaze tonight. Who knows These might give you cooler ideas for your animated characters than a computer screen!” His words made me feel a little less upset, though I still missed the coding plans I’d dreamed of.
Para. 2: “Okay, I’ll give it a try!” I said as I looked at Halley. That afternoon, we joined the group to hike through the woods. Halley pointed out a family of deer hiding behind oak trees, and I quickly took photos with my phone—mentally noting their soft fur for animation details. At night, we lay on the grass, watching stars twinkle. Halley pointed out the Big Dipper, and I imagined turning it into a magical background for my characters. By week’s end, I hadn’t touched a computer, but I’d filled a notebook with animal sketches and story ideas. When I got home, I animated a little deer with a pinecone necklace—my favorite memory from Nature Camp. Sometimes, mistakes lead to the best surprises.

M: Right, so here we are in Fairhaven. And we’re visiting Fairhaven because of its historical links with a man called Manjiro Nakahama. So I’ll begin by giving you a brief introduction to his life, and then you can take your time to explore the town. Manjiro Nakahama was born in 1827 in a village by the sea in Tosashimizu, Japan. And like many people in that town, he became a fisherman when he was young. One day in 1841, he and some others were fishing far off the coast of Japan when they were caught in a storm. He was rescued by an American whale ship. And Manjiro became friends with the captain William Whitfield, who came from the town of Fairhaven. That is where we are now. He chose to remain aboard, and to come with the boat to the
U.S.A. So Manjiro became the first Japanese to set foot on American soil. He studied mathematics and geography as well as shipbuilding in Fairhaven. But he missed his mother, and his own country. Eventually in 1851 he went back to Japan where he had a responsible position as a university teacher. He also served an invaluable role as an interpreter to build up and improve the relationship between Japan and the United States. Tosashimizu and Fairhaven now have the official status of sister cities. In Fairhaven there have been a
number of visits by the people of Tosashimizu, in particular at the time of the festival, which is held every two years to celebrate the life and achievements of Manjiro. It takes place in the fall, and there an ever-growing program including drumming, singing, and small open shops selling Japanese and American food.

A woman has recalled her childhood spent “trapped” on a boat with her parents, detailing how she made her “escape”.
While her parents thought it was the trip of a lifetime and often described the opportunity as a “privilege” (特权), Suzanne has since compared it to being locked up in prison.
Now 55 years old, Suzanne has shared her tale of survival on the Internet, and recalled her 10 years at sea in her tell-all memoir Wavewalker. Despite her father assuring her the “trip would be safe”, Suzanne claimed it was “incredibly dangerous”, sharing details of a dangerous journey from South Africa to Australia where the boat hit an “enormous storm”. “The waves became bigger and bigger, and finally one crashed over the back of the boat,” she
recalled. “I was thrown, a little girl at 7, against the ceiling of the cabin and against the wall, breaking my skull and nose. Three days later, we found a tiny little island in the middle of the Indian Ocean where I had multiple head operations without anaesthetic (麻醉剂).”
In order to get through her “very strange” childhood, Suzanne recalled how she determined to get an education
to live a normal life. While remote education wasn’t an option in 1969, Suzanne enrolled in an Australian correspondence school when she was 13. Then, when she was 16, and her brother 15, her parents enrolled the two teenagers in a school in New Zealand while they continued sailing. Despite the gaps in her education, Suzanne landed a spot at Oxford University, and after saving up money she’d earned working on a farm, Suzanne bought a one-way plane ticket back to the UK.
Since going public with her story, which she was inspired to do after the death of her husband in 2018, Suzanne’s book instantly became a bestseller. Suzanne’s extraordinary tale has captured the hearts of millions. “Wavewalker is one of the best books I’ve read. I’m so sorry you went through all that,” one person replied, while another said, “Thank you! Your story inspires me and I can change my life no matter when and how.”
How does Suzanne find the ten-year journey at sea
Amusing and rewarding. B. Eventful and risky.
C. Private and plain. D. Inspiring and comforting.
Why did Suzanne decide to get an education
To get her life back on track. B. To earn enough money.
C. To change her strange childhood. D. To prove her parents wrong.
What can we learn from the last paragraph
Suzanne’s book is well received. B. Suzanne’s book gets divided opinions.
C. Suzanne’s book highlights adventurous spirits. D. Suzanne’s husband inspires her to write the book.
Which of the following is the best title for the text
A Dangerous Journey at Sea
A Success Story of a Brave Woman
A Best-seller Describes an Incredible Experience
A Woman Trapped on a Boat for a Decade Details “Escape”
C
Historically, bat migration has been a bit of a black box. “They’re fast and they move at night,” says Edward Hurme, a biologist at the Max Planck Institute for Animal Behavior in Germany. “Once they disappear from an area, we don’t necessarily have the ability to figure out where they show up again.” Bats are also smaller than many migrating birds, meaning they are unable to tolerate the weight of the sort of tracking devices that researchers attach to birds for monitoring purposes.
So Hurme and his colleagues had to design one. They created specialized devices weighing just over 1g that measure how the animal is moving, as well as temperature. Unlike some other devices, which measure animal movements but must be recovered by scientists to download the data, these new ones broadcast their information to a wireless network. That allows the researchers to work out their position and follow the bats’ journey.
In total, the team equipped 71 female bats with these sensors. When the researchers paired their tracking data with climate data, they noticed a curious connection. “We found that a lot of bats are actually migrating before storms come through,” says Hurme. In the spring, storms typically follow warm fronts that generate strong winds that usually blow in the right direction for migration.
Long-distance migration can take a lot of energy, but these bats have found some assistance. They time their springtime departure to happen at the same time as warm fronts that lead storms. These winds tend to blow in the general northeasterly direction of the bat migration this time of year, giving the bats, which weigh about an ounce, a significant lift. “We noted that bats were responding to good wind conditions, but we didn’t think that there was a connection with storms,” Hurme says. The researchers have yet to find out what signals the bats are using to time their departures.
More broadly, it is within Hurme’s vision that an increasing number of research groups begin using the tiny bat tags on other bat species. Ultimately, that sort of work could contribute to the conservation of bats. By understanding when and where they migrate, researchers could construct bat migration forecasts, which could help energy companies shut down turbines ( 涡轮机) during the bats’ migratory periods, or avoid building in certain areas altogether, he says.
Why has bat migration been a bit of a black box
Bats are too small to be detected. B. Bats’ movement is hard to monitor.
C. Bats fly at high speed in packs. D. Bats’ bodies are too weak for devices.
What does the second paragraph mainly discuss
The urgency of innovation. B. The features of the new trackers.
C. The complexity of the particular design. D. The improvement of researching methods. 30．Why do bats begin their migration prior to the arrival of storms
A. To find the appropriate route. B. To migrate against the winds.
C. To lower energy consumption. D. To avoid the disastrous storms.
What’s Hurme’s anticipation
A. Research on more species. B. Increasing production of turbines.
C. Wide application of the new devices. D. Enhancing awareness of animal conservation.
D
A challenge of teaching mathematics rather than, say, history is that the homework is a lot harder to come up with. After all, “Was Henry VIII a good king ” is a reasonable question to ask either a classroom of nine-year-olds or a lecture theatre of postgraduates. But “Solve this quadratic equation (二次方程式)” would leave the classroom nonplussed and the lecture theatre unimpressed. Maths is learned by doing and designing a problem that is easy enough to be accessible, yet hard enough to be satisfying, is a big headache in itself.
Partly for this reason, books that successfully communicate how mathematicians think, but are aimed at those not already in the field, are both valuable and rare. Now Sir David Spiegelhalter, professor of statistics at the University of Cambridge, has added to the category with The Art of Uncertainty. His new book will appeal to many more than just mathematicians, for its topic is universal: how to analyse chance, uncertainty and risk.
If a new virus is running wild and the majority of deaths are among those who have received a newer vaccine (疫苗), is that evidence that the vaccination program is harmful How much of top football teams’ performance comes down to luck rather than skill Professor Spiegelhalter’s exploration of such questions is delightful. First, he uses them to illustrate broader ideas about how probability and statistics work. So a discussion of vaccine safety proceeds to Bayes’s theorem, a procedure for improving one’s judgment of probabilities as new evidence comes to light. The joy of Professor Spiegelhalter’s approach is that he reaches this deep truth through nothing more than some intuitive (直觉的) assumptions and very simple maths.
Most important, though, is Professor Spiegelhalter’s skill at communicating these ideas. Much of probability
and statistics can go against our intuition, and the maths behind it is often fearsome. But this is not a difficult book to read or understand.
What does the underlined word “nonplussed” in paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Impressed. B. Inspired. C. Confused. D. Amused.
What is the biggest selling point of The Art of Uncertainty according to the author
It casts light on math thoughts. B. It covers various topics.
C. It makes sense to ordinary people. D. It satisfies maths professionals.
Why does the author mention Bayes’s theorem in paragraph 3
To prove the reliability of intuition. B. To reveal the book’s academic nature.
C. To underline the deep truth of judgement. D. To show Spiegelhalter’s writing approach.
What is the text mainly about
A popular mathematician. B. A discussion of risk management.
C. An introduction to academic teaching. D. A book on understanding probability.

Wildlife documentaries are known for offering breathtaking images of animals in their natural habitats. You might be thinking that these shows offer a totally real portrayal of these animals－an objective window into their lives as they hunt, rest and raise their young. 36 While the images we see are filmed on location, many of the sounds are recorded in a sound studio and added to the programs later by human “Foley artists (拟音师)”.
This is an unavoidable outcome of modern wildlife filmmaking. Usually, documentary filmmakers can film their subjects from a great distance, but they typically can’t get close enough to capture clear sounds without disturbing the animals. Wildlife documentaries also tend to require large crews. 37 For example, crew members chatting or walking around can be included if sounds are recorded on location. In other cases, the animals might make sounds of a frequency or volume that most microphones simply can’t capture clearly.
38 And most of them will create the close-up sounds of animals chewing or yawning with their own mouths. These sounds are created as the artist watches the videos, making sure they perfectly match the actions they’re paired with. 39 Animal cries — which are far too complex to be simulated — will have to be taken from library recordings.
Watching “Foley artists” at work on wildlife projects gives me a thrill like the one we get when we see how a magic trick is done. Admittedly, the significance of the technique goes further. 40 Sounds have the
ability to affect our understanding of a given species.
But this isn’t quite the case.
There are some exceptions, though.
The filmmakers can achieve the effects.
There will probably be background noises.
Sounds guide our emotional interpretation of the things we see.
How it is introduced in documentaries may also make a difference.
“Foley artists” will use a variety of tools to simulate (模拟) the sounds made by animals.

One typical day, I was driving my Uber as usual. In the backseat sat two teen boys, fascinated by their phones. I could hear every word each phone 41 . Neither passenger appeared to be 42 by the competing content of the other’s, but I could 43 hear the navigation’s directions.
I asked, “Excuse me, do you have 44 ” “No...” “OK, could you turn down the volume I just can’t hear the driving directions.”
Both of them turned down the volume as I 45 . In fact, I often encounter similar situations on the subway, in airports, and in the back of my car. They play digital content — 46 only for their own viewing or listening—loudly, 47 everyone within close range to put up with the 48 . Undoubtedly, there is a simple solution to this rude behavior: wearing headphones. From my perspective, the key is not a pair of headphones that anyone can get, but regaining the politeness and 49 we ought to have.
Because cellphones have become widespread so quickly in modern life and self-awareness is praised by everyone like common knowledge in a 50 , the resulting issue of public interests, which is affected by such behavior, is often 51 . Even so, I still believe that we only need to 52 how and when we use our phones to make necessary 53 . This is merely a matter of awareness, not something unavoidable.
Decades ago, smoking in public did not cause 54 the way it does when such behavior happens today. Similarly, we will definitely see the day when everyone feels embarrassed about making noise themselves — or their phones making noise — in public. That day will 55 come.

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。
Sometimes things don’t go as planned, but that doesn’t mean they can’t still be wonderful in their own way. My parents and I had spent a long time researching summer camps online and finally we picked out one where I could design games, animate (把...制作成动画) characters, and learn other cool coding (编程) skills.
Mom said, “I like the idea of you using that clever brain of yours more, but I also hope you can get plenty of
fresh air.” “Campers can choose to hike every afternoon!” I said as I clicked on the registration form.
Weeks later, my parents dropped me off at the camp, which I thought would be a week full of non-stop computer-coding fun. When I arrived at the check-in table, I met a camper of my age named Halley — he was wearing an adorable sunhat. He greeted me, “We’re in the same group — Group 7!” Led by an advisor, we followed the green arrows to the campsite.
On the way, I was surprised to find it was very cool there, filled with the fresh, woodsy smell. Halley and I talked about our expectations for the camp activities. He excitedly mentioned the small animals he loved to observe and something about watching the night sky.
“You’ve given me a great idea!” I said. “I’ll base the animated characters I design on the animals you mentioned!” Halley asked, “I’m a bit confused — what exactly are these characters you’re talking about ”
“You know, the characters we’ll be designing and animating on computers this week!” I said. “Uh, sorry, I still don’t get it,” Halley said. “Why would we do computer stuff at a Nature Camp ”
It was then that I realized there must have been a mistake — I must have accidentally clicked on the wrong online form when registering! I rushed back to the welcome table right away to see if I could switch to Tech Camp, but obviously, it was already completely full.
注意:
续写词数应为 150 左右；
请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Para.1: When I met Halley again, I forced a smile.
Para. 2: “Okay, I’ll give it a try!” I said as I looked at Halley.

Dear Peter,
I’m thrilled to get your practice video for the Chinese poetry recital contest—your passion for Chinese poetry really shows! I’m writing to share small suggestions that might help you do even better.
After watching, I found two points to adjust: first, you mispronounced a few ancient words, like “jiu” (wine) sounding a bit like “ju”; second, your rhythm was too fast, especially in the middle verses, which weakened the poem’s gentle mood. For improvement, listen to professional recitals online to copy correct pronunciations and pause briefly at each couplet’s end to stress the poem’s rise and fall.
Keep practicing, and you’ll stand out! If you have more questions or want to share another video, just reach out anytime.
Yours, Li Hua
Possible version：
Para.1: When I met Halley again, I forced a smile. I told him about my mistake—how I’d signed up for Nature Camp by accident instead of Tech Camp. Halley’s eyes widened at first, but then he patted my shoulder gently. “Nature Camp is awesome too!” he said, pulling out a small notebook filled with sketches of squirrels and fireflies. “We can watch birds at dawn, collect pinecones, and even stargaze tonight. Who knows These might give you cooler ideas for your animated characters than a computer screen!” His words made me feel a little less upset, though I still missed the coding plans I’d dreamed of.
Para. 2: “Okay, I’ll give it a try!” I said as I looked at Halley. That afternoon, we joined the group to hike through the woods. Halley pointed out a family of deer hiding behind oak trees, and I quickly took photos with my phone—mentally noting their soft fur for animation details. At night, we lay on the grass, watching stars twinkle. Halley pointed out the Big Dipper, and I imagined turning it into a magical background for my characters. By week’s end, I hadn’t touched a computer, but I’d filled a notebook with animal sketches and story ideas. When I got home, I animated a little deer with a pinecone necklace—my favorite memory from Nature Camp. Sometimes, mistakes lead to the best surprises.

M: Right, so here we are in Fairhaven. And we’re visiting Fairhaven because of its historical links with a man called Manjiro Nakahama. So I’ll begin by giving you a brief introduction to his life, and then you can take your time to explore the town. Manjiro Nakahama was born in 1827 in a village by the sea in Tosashimizu, Japan. And like many people in that town, he became a fisherman when he was young. One day in 1841, he and some others were fishing far off the coast of Japan when they were caught in a storm. He was rescued by an American whale ship. And Manjiro became friends with the captain William Whitfield, who came from the town of Fairhaven. That is where we are now. He chose to remain aboard, and to come with the boat to the
U.S.A. So Manjiro became the first Japanese to set foot on American soil. He studied mathematics and geography as well as shipbuilding in Fairhaven. But he missed his mother, and his own country. Eventually in 1851 he went back to Japan where he had a responsible position as a university teacher. He also served an invaluable role as an interpreter to build up and improve the relationship between Japan and the United States. Tosashimizu and Fairhaven now have the official status of sister cities. In Fairhaven there have been a
number of visits by the people of Tosashimizu, in particular at the time of the festival, which is held every two years to celebrate the life and achievements of Manjiro. It takes place in the fall, and there an ever-growing program including drumming, singing, and small open shops selling Japanese and American food. So, if you're going to be in the area around then, it’s really worth a visit.
