One possible version:
The King’s Speech is a touching and inspiring movie about King George Ⅵ and his speech therapist Lionel Logue.Originally,the king had difficulty expressing himself especially in public due to his stuttering conditions.Fortunately,with the help of a little-known Australian speech therapist named Lionel,he finally managed to make his first wartime radio broadcast to the whole kingdom.
From the beginning to the end, the movie explores the theme of persistence in an intelligent and humorous way.All in all, it’s a movie worth watching.
The reason why I recommend the movie is that we can learn a lesson from the king: we should always be ourselves and keep bettering ourselves whenever possible and whatever challenges we may face.Period Four Writing

Ⅱ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了电影《长空之王》。
1.whose 考查定语从句。分析句子可知,空格处单词引导限制性定语从句,修饰先行词a group of air force pilots,关系词代替先行词在定语从句中作job的定语,应使用表示所属关系的关系代词whose引导该定语从句。故填whose。
2.to see 考查非谓语动词。 “…if they have what it takes to be involved in dangerous research…”是“They must first go through a difficult test”的目的,应用不定式作目的状语。故填to see。
3.facing 考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知,句中有谓语动词test,空处应用非谓语动词,空处与其逻辑主语they之间是主动关系,应用现在分词形式。故填facing。
4.newly 考查副词。空处修饰非谓语动词developed,应用副词newly作状语。故填newly。
5.has been 考查动词时态和主谓一致。系动词be是主句谓语,根据时间状语从句“since it was first seen flying in 2016”可知,应用现在完成时,主语the J-20 fighter jet是单数名词,助动词应用单数形式。故填has been。
6.provides 考查动词时态和主谓一致。分析句子可知,provide是句子谓语动词,描述一般性事实应用一般现在时,又因主语the movie是单数名词,所以谓语动词也应用单数形式。故填provides。
7.is given 考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。分析句子可知,give是主句谓语动词,与主语the audience之间是被动关系,结合从句时态和语境可知,此处描述一般性事实,应用一般现在时,主语the audience是集体名词,视为单数,所以谓语动词也应使用单数形式。故填is given。
8.While/Although/Though 考查连词。根据句意可知,“都很勇敢”与“年轻一代对飞机技术有更好的理解”之间有转折关系,应用从属连词while、although或though引导让步状语从句;单词位于句首,首字母应大写。故填While/Although/Though。
9.a 考查冠词。have a better understanding of…意为“对……有更好的理解或认识”。故填a。
10.willingness 考查名词。分析句子可知,空处在句中作主语,应用名词willingness,意为“意愿”,为不可数名词。故填willingness。
Ⅲ.One possible version:
Key elements of a great film
Nowadays films play an important role in our life. And every great film must involve many key elements. Opinions about them vary among people. Below are my ideas about key elements of a great film.
First, I hold the view that a great film must have a good script. The dialogue, as well as the plot and the characters, needs to be believable. The story does not have to be the most original, but it needs to be told in an interesting way, which requires a good scriptwriter.
Besides, the director plays a very important role in making a great film. The film needs to look good, and the images need to be well thought out. The best films have directors that are fully in control of everything the audience sees on the screen.
To be brief, the above two elements are the key to a great film.
Ⅳ.【思路点拨】 本文以作者对电影的喜爱为线索展开。作者是一名高中生,在面对生活和学业中的各种压力和挫折时,不能积极应对,而是选择沉溺于电影中人物的完美结局来逃避现实。最后在老朋友的开导下,作者认识到自己的人生应该由自己主导,剧本应该由自己撰写,与其逃避现实,不如直面人生,勇于尝试,做自己人生电影中的主角。
【详解】
1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“她解释说,她过去常常通过做同样的事情来逃避现实。”可知,第一段可以描写Sarah如何转变态度和她具体的做法,并以自身经历开导启发作者。
②由第二段首句内容“受到她的话语的激励,我决定创作自己的人生故事。”可知,第二段可以描写作者深受 Sarah 话语的鼓舞和激励,作者转变心态,立志做自己人生电影的主角。
2.续写线索:Sarah做出解释—Sarah谈及自己的经历—作者受到启发—作者转变心态—作者立志做出改变。
One possible version:
She explained she used to escape her realities by doing the same thing. “Then one day,” Sarah explained, “I started to think about why I wanted to be like the people in the movies. And then it occurred to me that they had their scripts already written out for them. However, I had the ability to write my own script. If I had the power to determine the plot of my life movie, then why wouldn’t I make it an inspiring one, a movie with a happy ending ” she said. “You are the star of your own movie. Now all you need is your story,” she added.
Inspired by her words, I decided that I would produce my own life story. No other actress could fill my role. It was up to me to produce, direct and edit my life. I would set my own goals I was capable of achieving from now on. There can be no success without the possibility of failure. The only sure way of failing is by refusing to try. I looked over at Sarah, and said “Thank you”, squeezing her hand. The curtain rose, and my film began.Period Four Writing

Be a star of your own movie
I always loved the movies. It didn’t even matter if I went to see them alone. In the movies, nothing seemed impossible: I became the star of the cheerleading team who leads her team to victory, or the teenager who bridges the gap between the races at her high school, or even the young woman who falls in love with a handsome nobleman from the nineteenth century. And I would always live happily ever after.
In fact, I liked to pretend what was happening on-screen was happening in my own life as well. I liked the happy endings, the perfect happy endings. I wanted my life to be like that, happy and wonderful. I wanted to escape the stress of family and friends and school. My only escape from the reality that trapped me was heading for a movie theatre.
I hadn’t always been this way. As a young girl I was outgoing and friendly, and even involved in after-school activities. High school was different, though. I became quiet and withdrawn.
My parents were worried about me. They urged me to call old friends or get more involved with school. After promising my parents a thousand times that I would call one of my old friends, I finally agreed. The only number I knew by heart was Sarah’s, so I called her. Sarah herself was pretty close to perfect: straight-A student, class president, off to Yale in fall, beautiful, sweet, and brilliant. We decided to meet for a pizza lunch.
We ate and talked and caught up on old times. I told her how difficult it had been for me in the past few years and how unbearable the pressure had been. “I wish my life was the way it is in the movies,” I sighed. “I would be so much easier.” I looked down through my fingers, face in my hands. “I understand,” she said. I looked up at her, questioning her with my eyes.
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
Paragraph 1:
She explained she used to escape her realities by doing the same thing.
Paragraph 2:
Inspired by her words, I decided that I would produce my own life story.

Key elements of a great film
Nowadays films play an important role in our life. And every
great film must involve many key elements. Opinions about them
vary among people. Below are my ideas about key elements of a
great film.
First, I hold the view that a great film must have a good
script. The dialogue, as well as the plot and the characters, needs
to be believable. The story does not have to be the most original,
but it needs to be told in an interesting way, which requires a
good scriptwriter.
Besides, the director plays a very important role in making a
great film. The film needs to look good, and the images need to
be well thought out. The best films have directors that are fully in
control of everything the audience sees on the screen.
To be brief, the above two elements are the key to a great
film.

Be a star of your own movie
I always loved the movies. It didn't even matter if I went to
see them alone. In the movies, nothing seemed impossible: I
became the star of the cheerleading team who leads her team to
victory, or the teenager who bridges the gap between the races at
her high school, or even the young woman who falls in love with
a handsome nobleman from the nineteenth century. And I would
always live happily ever after.
In fact, I liked to pretend what was happening on-screen was
happening in my own life as well. I liked the happy endings, the
perfect happy endings. I wanted my life to be like that, happy and
wonderful. I wanted to escape the stress of family and friends and
school. My only escape from the reality that trapped me was
heading for a movie theatre.
I hadn't always been this way. As a young girl I was outgoing
and friendly, and even involved in after-school activities. High
school was different, though. I became quiet and withdrawn.
My parents were worried about me. They urged me to call old
friends or get more involved with school. After promising my
parents a thousand times that I would call one of my old friends, I
finally agreed. The only number I knew by heart was Sarah's, so I
called her. Sarah herself was pretty close to perfect: straight-A
student, class president, off to Yale in fall, beautiful, sweet, and
brilliant. We decided to meet for a pizza lunch.
We ate and talked and caught up on old times. I told her how
difficult it had been for me in the past few years and how
unbearable the pressure had been.
“I wish my life was the way it is in the movies,” I sighed. “I
would be so much easier.” I looked down through my fingers,
face in my hands. “I understand,” she said. I looked up at her,
questioning her with my eyes.

【思路点拨】本文以作者对电影的喜爱为线索展开。作者是一名高中生，在面
对生活和学业中的各种压力和挫折时，不能积极应对，而是选择沉溺于电影中
人物的完美结局来逃避现实。最后在老朋友的开导下，作者认识到自己的人生
应该由自己主导，剧本应该由自己撰写，与其逃避现实，不如直面人生，勇于
尝试，做自己人生电影中的主角。
【详解】
1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“她解释说，她过去常常通过做同样的事情来逃避现实。”
可知，第一段可以描写Sarah如何转变态度和她具体的做法，并以自身经历开
导启发作者。
②由第二段首句内容“受到她的话语的激励，我决定创作自己的人生故事。”
可知，第二段可以描写作者深受 Sarah 话语的鼓舞和激励，作者转变心态，
立志做自己人生电影的主角。
2.续写线索：Sarah做出解释—Sarah谈及自己的经历—作者受到启发—作者
转变心态—作者立志做出改变。
One possible version:
She explained she used to escape her realities by doing the
same thing. “Then one day,” Sarah explained, “I started to think
about why I wanted to be like the people in the movies. And then
it occurred to me that they had their scripts already written out
for them. However, I had the ability to write my own script. If I
had the power to determine the plot of my life movie, then why
wouldn't I make it an inspiring one, a movie with a happy ending ”
she said. “You are the star of your own movie. Now all you need
is your story,” she added.
Inspired by her words, I decided that I would produce my own
life story. No other actress could fill my role. It was up to me to
produce, direct and edit my life. I would set my own goals I was
capable of achieving from now on. There can be no success
without the possibility of failure. The only sure way of failing is by
refusing to try. I looked over at Sarah, and said “Thank you”,
squeezing her hand. The curtain rose, and my film began.
