[2020·河南省五校联考]I
was
getting
ready
to
go
to
bed
when
the
phone
rang.
This
could
not
be
good.
My
mind
raced
through
the
list
of
family
members
who
might
need
help,
but
the
voice
was
hardly
familiar.
“Lindy,
this
is
Lesley.”
I
didn't
know
Lesley
well.
We
did
occasionally
speak
with
each
other,
but
to
say
we
were
friends
was
not
appropriate.
I
asked
what
she
needed.
Perhaps
something
really
awful
caused
her
to
reach
someone
she
barely
knew.
Instead,
she
asked
me,
“Do
you
have
room
for
a
turkey?
In
your
freezer？”
We_had_lots_of_room_in_our_freezer,_and_in_fact,_too_much.
“Sure，”
I
responded,
“did
your
freezer
break
down？”
“Not
exactly，”
Lesley
replied,
“but
I
will
explain
when
I
arrive.”
Minutes
later
came
a
huge
freezer
truck.
Lesley
stepped
down
and
explained
the
lease
(租约)
of
the
grocery
store
her
husband
serviced
had
run
out
and
that
they
had
to
empty
all
the
freezers
that
very
night.
Thinking
it
was
a
shame
to
throw
away
all
this
good
food,
they
decided
to
drop
off
food
to
anyone
she
could
think
of.
Noticing
our
freezer
was
pretty
empty,
Lesley
asked
to
fill
it
up.
Our
home
was
their
last
stop
and
anything
left
would
have
to
be
put
in
our
freezer.
An
hour
later,
everything
finished,
I
asked
her,
“When
will
you
come
back
for
all
this？”Lesley
laughed,
“We
don't
want
it
back.
It
is
yours!
Thanks
for
helping
us
out！”
Then
they
waved
goodbye
and
drove
away.
“For
helping
them
out？”
We
opened
our
freezer
door.
Inside
were
all
expensive
foods
we
never
bought
but
often
longed
to
try.
We
were
struggling
to
buy
groceries,
yet
it
was
not
something
we
shared
with
anyone.
However,
our
needs
were
met
in
an
unexpected
way,
by
that
call.“Do
you
have
room
for
a
turkey？”
4．How
did
the
writer
feel
when
she
heard
the
phone
ringing?
A．Angry.
B．Anxious.
C．Shocked.
D．Relieved.
5．What
does
the
author
indicate
by
the
underlined
sentence
in
paragraph
2?
A．They
were
running
out
of
food
supplies.
B．Their
freezer
was
too
large
to
fill.
C．They
were
glad
to
put
the
turkey
in
the
freezer.
D．Their
freezer
was
less
frequently
used.
6．Why
did
Lesley
call
up
the
writer?
A．Because
she
didn't
want
food
to
go
to
waste.
B．Because
the
writer
was
her
good
friend.
C．Because
something
awful

[2020·成都第一次诊断]Young
trees
don't
just
grow;
they
develop
a
personality
and
learn
more
about
their
environment
and
how
they
should
best
behave
in
it.
They
also
help
each
other
out
whenever
there's
trouble.
Personality,
just
as
among
people,
varies
among
trees.
Some
are
anxious,
some
bold.
On
the
author's
land,
there
are
three
oak
trees
growing
close
together.
One
of
the
oak
trees
always
starts
to
shed
(使落下)
its
leaves
two
weeks
earlier
than
the
others.
Since
they
all
experience
the
same
temperature,
the
same
soil
and
the
same
length
of
day,
such
variables
can't
be
the
explanation.
So
what's
happening?
Well,
this
tree
is
simply
more
careful
than
the
others.
Whoever
holds
on
to
their
leaves
longer
can
do
more
photosynthesis
(光合作用)
and
store
more
nutrients.
However,
the
longer
a
tree
keeps
its
leaves,
the
higher
the
risk
of
injury.
Not
only
do
trees
make
their
own
decisions,
they
also
learn
from
their
mistakes.
A
tree,
for
example,
keeping
its
leaves
too
long
during
one
year
will
never
make
this
mistake
again.
This
leads
to
several
other
conclusions:
trees
must
notice
the
temperature
and
the
length
of
the
day
and
be
able
to
save
their
experiences
somewhere.
Obviously,
trees
don't
have
brains,
but
it
is
thought
that
in
the
sensitive
tips
of
their
roots
they
keep
track
of
information
and
experiences.
But
trees
aren't
only
clever
when
it
comes
to
caring
for
themselves.
They
also
support
each
other
whenever
there's
trouble
by
giving
warnings
and
even
taking
care
of
sick
and
weak
conspecifics
(同种植物)
with
nutrients.
For
example,
one
time
the
author
found
a
very
old
tree
stump.
Its
insides
had
rotted
a
long
time
ago
to
topsoil.
But
the
wood
on
the
outside
of
the
stump
was
still
living.
How
was
this
possible?
Well,
the
stump
was
nourished
by
its
neighbors
with
nutrients
from
the
root
system,
and
had
been
for
at
least
400
years
!
Why
do
trees
do_such_a_thing?
It's
simple:
it's
better
together.
Trees
need
the
forest;
it
protects
them
from
storms,
provides
the
right
microclimate
and
warns
them
of
attacks.
8．Why
does
the
author
mention
the
three
oak
trees?
A．To
illustrate
trees
can
learn
from
experiences.
B．To
show
trees
can
make
independent
decisions.
C．To
explain
trees
are
quite
supportive
to
each
other.
D．To
prove
trees
have
the
same
personalities
as
humans.
9．According
to
the
text,
which
of
the
following
best
describes
general
features
of
trees?
A．Anxious
and
bold.
B．Smart
and
adventurous.
C．Helpful
and
well?behaved.
D．Adaptable
and
supportive.
10．What
does
the
underlined
phrase
“do
such
a
thing”
mean?
A．Give
warnings.
B．Offer
assistance.
C．Depend
on
others.
D．Provide
nutrients.
11．Where
does
this
text
most
probably
come
from?
A．A
public
lecture.
B．A
science
book.
C．An
experiment
report.
D．A

journal.

[2020·湖南省师大附中高三检测]Almost
every
day
we
come
across
situations
where
we
have
to
make
decisions
one
way
or
another.
Choice,
we
are
given
to
believe,
is
a
right.
But
for
a
good
many
people
in
the
world,
in
rich
and
poor
countries,
choice
is
a
luxury,
something
wonderful
but
hard
to
get,
not
a
right.
And
for
those
who
think
they
are
exercising
their
rights
to
make
choices,
the
whole
system
is
merely
an
illusion
(幻觉),
a
false
idea
created
by
companies
and
advertisers,
hoping
to
sell
their
products.
The
endless
choice
gives
birth
to
anxiety
in
people's
lives.
Buying
something
as
basic
as
a
coffee
pot
is
not
exactly
simple.
Easy
access
to
a
wide
range
of
everyday
goods
leads
to
a
sense
of
powerlessness
in
many
people,
ending
in
the
shoppers
giving
up
and
walking
away,
or
just
buying
an
unsuitable
item
that
is
not
really
wanted.
Recent
studies
have
shown
that
many
electrical
goods
bought
in
almost
every
family
are
not
really
needed.
More
difficult
decision?making
is
then
either
avoided
or
trusted
to
the
hands
of
the
professionals,
lifestyle
instructors,
or
advisors.
It
is
not
just
the
availability
of
the
goods
that
is
the
problem,
but
the
speed
with
which
new
types
of
products
come
on
the
market.
Advances
in
design
and
production
help
quicken
the
process.
Products
also
need
to
have
a
short
lifespan
so
that
the
public
can
be
persuaded
to
replace
them
within
a
short
time.
The
typical
example
is
computers,
which
are
almost
out?of?date
once
they
are
bought.
This
indeed
makes
selection
a
problem.
Gone
are
the
days
when
one
could
just
walk
with
ease
into
a
shop
and
buy
one
thing;
no
choice,
no
anxiety.
12．What
does
the
author
try
to
argue
in
the
first
paragraph?
A．The
practice
of
choice
is
difficult.
B．Choice
is
a
born
right.
C．It's
easy
to
make
choices.
D．Companies
offer
good
shopping
choice.
13．Which
of
the
following
is
most
likely
to
cause
anxiety?
A．Easy
access
to
everyday
goods.
B．Too
many
choices.
C．Misleading
advertisements.
D．Professional
shopping
advice.
14．The
example
of
computers
is
used
to
prove
that
________.
A．updated
products
flood
the
market
B．high?tech
products
are
of
poor
quality
C．everyday
goods
need
to
be
replaced
D．advanced
products
are
in
demand
15．What
is
this
passage
mainly
about?
A．The
opinions
on
people's
right.
B．The
problems
of
the
availability
of
daily
goods.
C．The
helplessness
in
purchasing
decisions.
D．The
variety
of
choices
in
modern
society.

Port
Washington,

So
when
Mardy
McGarry
wanted
to
build
a
playground
for
kids
with
special
needs,
she
knew
it
wouldn't
take
long
to
create
interest
in
the
project.
But
she
never
expected
that
a
third
of
the
town

would
join
in
it.
__1__
“A
lot
of
learning
comes
through
play，”
says
McGarry,
a
special
education
teacher
for
28
years.
She'd
seen
the
wood
chips
and
sand
of
traditional
playgrounds
stop
wheelchairs
dead
in
their
tracks.
When
a
piece
of
land
became
available,
the
city
council
agreed
to
choose
a
part
for
a
playground.
__2__
She
asked
many
kids
for
their
wish
list.
She
also
asked
experts
for
help.
And
she
brought
on
board
her
friend
Sue
Mayer,
whose
eight?year?old
son,
Sam,
has
a
serious
disease.
Her
Kiwanis
Club
chapter
came
through
with
$7,000,
and
that's
when
the
grassroots
movement
really
got
started.
One
woman
gave
$25,000
and
had
her
company
donate
the
same
amount.
__3__
There
were
silent
auctions
(拍卖)
and
T?shirt
sales.
The
local
Pieper
Family
Foundation
offered
to
donate
half
of
the
remaining
$170,000
balance
if
McGarry
could
raise
the
rest.
The
$450,000
covered
materials,
but
the
actual
construction
would
cost
an
additional
$900,000.
Not
a
choice.
But
the
community
could
build
it.
On
September
16,
2008,
the
first
day
of
construction,
they
came.
Two
women
heard
about
the
project
on
the
radio
on
the
way
to
work
and
took
the
day
off

It's
exactly
what
McGarry
wanted.

used
to
ask
why
she
wanted
to

just
for

“They

that

第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
[2020·甘肃省第一次诊断]Let's
be
honest
here:
random
acts
of
kindness
make
us
feel
good.
They
help
benefit
society
in
small
ways,
and
those
small
benefits
can
turn
into
huge
benefits.
Being
an
everyday
hero
means
willingly
and
joyfully
choosing
random
acts
of
kindness
to
make
the
world
a
bit
brighter.
__1__
Start
with
these
ideas.
●Leave
a
space
cleaner
than
you
found
it.
If
you
eat
out,
keep
your
table
clean,
making
it
a
little
easier
for
your
server.
At
home,
keep
your
things
organized.
__2__
●Be
kind
to
strangers.
It's
well
known
that
everyone
is
fighting
separate
but
equally
different
battles.
Although
you
might
not
be
able
to
understand
everyone's
struggles,
you
can
offer
unconditional
kindness
and
patience.

Maybe

worker

two
other
jobs
and
children
at

Although
you
don't
know
their
situations,
kindness
is
always
appreciated.
●
__4__
The
easiest
way
to
determine
whether
someone
needs
help
is
to
ask,
and
respect
their
answer.
When
close
friends
and
loved
ones
are
struggling,
your
support
can
be
a
“I
love
you.”
●
__5__
Your
local
resale
shop
can
provide
you
with
more
information
on
this.
By
donating
the
things
that
you
don't
need,
want,
or
use,
you
allow
another
person
to
benefit
from
them.
A．Try
to
show
mercy
to
someone.
B．Help
someone
who's
struggling.
C．Choose
to

D．Don't
leave

to
clean
up.
E．When
you've
decided
to
be
a

be
one
right
now.
F．If

课时作业2
课时练(一)
阅读理解
第一节
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇应用文，提供了两则有关兼职工作的信息。
1．D 考查细节理解。根据PART?TIME
LIBRARY
STAFF
ASSISTANT工作描述中的“Weekend
and
evening
availability
preferred”可知，这份工作需要周末和晚上能工作，即申请人需要有能空出来的工作时间，故选D项。
2．A 考查细节理解。根据PART?TIME
STUDENT
SERVICES
SUPPORT工作描述中的“Hours
and
payments
for
these
positions
will
vary”可知，这些助手的工资不尽相同，故选A项。
3．B 考查主旨大意。根据第一段中的“If
you're
looking
for
part?time
jobs
at
the
Penn
State
University
Park
campus,
you've
come
to
the
right
place”以及“Just
look
through
the
jobs
below
and
you'll
immediately
find
the
part?time
jobs
you
like”及文中的两则兼职信息介绍可知，本文主要提供了兼职工作的信息，故选B项。
【语篇解读】 本文为记叙文，讲述了作者一家在困难时期意外收到一位只有点头之交的人的“求助”，实际上却得到对方帮助的故事。
4．B 考查推理判断。根据第一段中的“This
could
not
be
good.
My
mind
raced
through
the
list
of
family
members
who
might
need
help”可知，作者刚听到电话铃响时认为不会有好事发生，猜测是哪个家人需要帮助，因此作者应是担忧的(anxious)。
5．A 考查句意理解。画线句表示“我们冰箱的空间很多，事实上，是太多了”；最后一段中的“Inside
were
all
expensive
foods
we
never
bought
but
often
longed
to
try”暗示，作者真正想要表达的是他们生活困难，贮存的食物快吃完了，因此她家冰箱有太多的空间，故A项正确。
6．A 考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“Thinking
it
was
a
shame
to
throw
away
all
this
good
food,
they
decided
to
drop
off
food
to
anyone
she
could
think
of”可知，Lesley不想把这么好的食物扔掉，所以决定把食物送给她能想起的任何人，包括作者，故A项正确。
7．D 考查主旨大意。文章主要讲述了作者一家在困难时期收到Lesley的“求助”电话，询问其冰柜是否有空间存放火鸡，结果却得到Lesley的帮助的故事。结合文章前后均提到“Do
you
have
room
for
a
turkey”可知，D项正确。
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了树的智慧：每棵树都有它不同的个性，遇到困难时它们也会互相帮助。研究发现，树不但能自己做决定，还能从自己的错误中吸取教训。
8．B 考查推理判断。根据第二段第四句“One
of
the
oak
trees
always
starts
to
shed
its
leaves
two
weeks
earlier
than
the
others”可知，三棵橡树中，有一棵总比其他两棵先落叶；结合第三段第一句“Not
only
do
trees
make
their
own
decisions,
they
also
learn
from
their
mistakes”可知，树木能自己做决定。据此可推知，作者提及三棵橡树旨在说明树木可以自己做决定，故B项正确。
9．D 考查推理判断。根据第三段第一句“Not
only
do
trees
make
their
own
decisions,
they
also
learn
from
their
mistakes”，并结合第三段内容可知，树木不仅能自己做决定，还能从自己的错误中吸取教训。据此可推知，树木适应能力强；根据第四段第一、二句“But
trees
aren't
only
clever
when
it
comes
to
caring
for
themselves.
They
also
support
each
other
whenever
there's
trouble
by
giving
warnings
and
even
taking
care
of
sick
and
weak
conspecifics
with
nutrients”可知，树木不仅善于照顾自己，当遇到困难时，它们会发出警告，相互支持，甚至照顾生病、虚弱的同类。据此可推知，树木之间互帮互助，故D项正确。
10．B 考查词义猜测。根据第四段尾句“Well,
the
stump
was
nourished
by
its
neighbors
with
nutrients
from
the
root
system,
and
had
been
for
at
least
400
years
！”可知，树桩是由它的邻居从根处给予营养来滋养的；结合第五段第一句“Why
do
trees
do
such
a
thing？”和第五段的内容可知，该处表示“为什么树木要互相帮助？”，故画线短语是指提供帮助，故B项正确。
11．B 考查推理判断。通读全文可知，本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了树的智慧：每棵树都有它不同的个性，遇到困难时它们也会互相帮助；研究发现，树不但能自己做决定，还能从自己的错误中吸取教训。据此可推知，本文最可能选自科学书籍，故B项正确。
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇议论文。当今社会，很多人误以为选择是自己拥有的一项权利。其实，在很多情况下，那只是一种幻觉，不过是被一些公司或广告商为了出售他们的产品而营造的一种错误想法。
12．A 考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“But
for
a
good
many
people
in
the
world,
in
rich
and
poor
countries,
choice
is
a
luxury,
something
wonderful
but
hard
to
get,
not
a
right.”可知，作者认为对世界上的很多人来说，选择并非是一种权利，无论是在贫穷的国家还是在富有的国家中，选择对他们来说其实是一种奢侈品，很美好但很难得到。也就是说选择是很难做到的，故选A项。
13．B 考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“The
endless
choice
gives
birth
to
anxiety
in
people's
lives.”可知，无休止的选择催生出人们生活中的焦虑，即人们焦虑是因为选择太多而导致的，故选B项。
14．A 考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“Advances
in
design
and
production
help
quicken
the
process.
Products
also
need
to
have
a
short
lifespan
so
that
the
public
can
be
persuaded
to
replace
them
within
a
short
time.
The
typical
example
is
computers,
which
are
almost
out?of?date
once
they
are
bought.”可知，产品的设计和生产方面的进步加速了(产品)被推向市场的进程，产品也需要缩短使用期，电脑便是其中的一个例子。由此可以推断，作者以电脑为例，证明市场上充斥着更新的产品，故选A项。
15．C 考查主旨大意。纵观全文，尤其是文章最后一句“Gone
are
the
days
when
one
could
just
walk
with
ease
into
a
shop
and
buy
one
thing;
no
choice,
no
anxiety.”可知，本文主要讲述了人们在购物时因为选择太多而无法简单选择的现状，故选C项。
第二节
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。Mardy
McGarry打算为残疾儿童建造一个操场的消息传开后，镇上有三分之一的人过来帮忙。最后在社会各界的帮助下，操场顺利完工。
1．G 根据空前一句可知，她没有料到，镇上有三分之一的人会加入其中，即为孩子们建造一个操场。据此可推知，空处应是继续说明镇上的人帮助她把想法变为现实，故G项符合语境。
2．F 根据空前一句可知，市政会为操场选址；根据空后一句可知，McGarry询问学生的愿望。据此可推知，空处应是说明她开始调查所需设备，并联系设计公司，故F项正确。
3．A 根据本段介绍的拍卖会、资金会的捐款等活动可知，A项“很快一些更小型的公司也来帮忙”符合语境。
4．E 空前一句是说在听到这个消息后，两位女士请假过来帮忙；空后一句是说孩子们也帮忙打磨地面。据此可推知，空处与此对应，应是介绍人们过来帮忙的具体例子，故E项符合语境。
5．B 根据空处下文中的“you
build
one
for
all
children”可推知，空处介绍McGarry建造操场想要看到的一幕：所有孩子肩并肩地一起玩耍，故B项正确。

【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。小学生Terence非常渴望去华盛顿进行实地调查旅行，他希望自己挣一半旅费，另一半由父母资助。父母答应后，他通过帮邻居照看小孩、修剪花园和给花园除杂草等工作攒够了钱。
1．D 根据空前一句可知，每年Terence所在学校的五年级学生都要去华盛顿进行实地调查旅行。结合该句中的“to
go
the
next
year”可知，Terence应该是听说了这个激动人心的旅行，就渴望来年也去。D项意为“听说”，故D项正确。

sth.为固定搭配，意为“渴望做某事”，故A项正确。
3．C 根据上文可知，Terence渴望去华盛顿进行实地调查旅行；又结合语境可知，此处表示Terence急切地问他的父母是否愿意支付他参加旅行的一半费用。C项意为“急切地，渴望地”，故C项正确。
4．B 根据下文可知，他有近一年的时间去挣150美元；又根据下文中的“His
mom
and
dad
gave
him
a
check
for
the
$150
they
__18__
him”可推知，他的父母同意为他支付一半的旅行费用，故选B项。
5．A 根据该句中的“to
earn
money
by
babysitting”“typed
a
nice
letter”并结合语境可知，他的第一个主意就是通过代人临时照看孩子来挣钱，并打了一封信，信上说在邻居不在时他可以帮他们照看孩子，故选A项。
6．D 参见上题解析，选D项。
7．D 参见第5题解析。absence“缺席，不在”符合语境，故D项正确。
8．C 根据该句中的“$1
per
hour
per
child”并结合语境可知，Terence帮邻居照看孩子的收费标准是每个孩子每小时一美元。C项意为“收费；开价”，故C项正确。
9．B 根据语境可知，在帮助邻居照看五次孩子后，他赚了45美元。B项意为“一段时间”，符合语境，故B项正确。
10．A 根据下文“He
helped
with
mowing
(修剪)
and
weeding
gardens”可知，该处指当温暖的天气来临时，他敲邻居们的门问是否需要帮忙做院子里的工作，故选A项。
11．A 参见上题解析，选A项。
12．B 根据该句中的“he
still
needed
$30
for
his
trip”和语境可知，数过钱后，他算出还需要30美元。determine“准确算出”符合语境，故选B项。
13．C 根据下文中他开始送报纸，并结合语境和常识可知，很快他的妈妈看到一个广告，为他找到了一份工作，故选C项。
14．D 根据该句中的“newspapers
every
Wednesday
afternoon,
making
5
cents
for
every
paper”可知，他得到了一份在每周三下午送报纸的工作，每份报纸挣五美分，每周三总共挣10美元；deliver
newspapers意为“送报纸”，故D项正确。
15．D 参见上题解析，选D项。
16．C 根据上文描述的他还需要30美元和他每周三送报纸挣10美元可知，不久他就有足够的钱去华盛顿旅行了，故选C项。
17．A 根据下文“The
class
trip
was
on
October
15”可推知，秋天时他赚够了钱，正好赶上旅行。A项意为“正好”，故A项正确。
18．C 根据上文他的父母同意给他出一半的钱可知，此处表示他的父母给了之前向他承诺的150美元的支票。C项意为“承诺”，故C项正确。
19．B 根据上文可知，他挣了150美元，他的父母又给他150美元，所以他攒够了足以支付自己旅行的费用。B项意为“足以支付，够付”，符合语境，故B项正确。
20．B 根据语境并结合选项可知，这段经历在很多方面塑造了Terence，他以巨大的努力使自己的梦想成为现实，故B项正确。
第二节
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文，小小的善举却能带来巨大的改变。作者告诉读者如何通过小小的善举成为“每日英雄”，从而让我们的生活更加美好。
1．F 空前提到小小的善举可以带来巨大的改变，Being
an
everyday
hero
(成为每日英雄)可以让世界更加美好。而空后又提到了Being
an
everyday
hero的一些方法，所以设空处应为承上启下的过渡句，故F项：如果你想成为“每日英雄”，那么请每天花五分钟的时间来成为这样的英雄，符合语境。
2．D 本段主旨是要保持清洁，根据空前“At
home,
keep
your
things
organized.”如果你在家里，要整理好自己的东西，因此，设空处应承接上文所表达的含义，故D项：不要弄得一团糟，让别人去清理，符合语境。
3．G 根据空前“Although
you
might
not
be
able
to
understand
everyone's
struggles,
you
can
offer
unconditional
kindness
and
patience.”尽管你可能没有办法了解每个人的困难，但你可以给他们无条件的善良和耐心；再根据空后“Maybe
the
fast?food
worker
has
two
other
jobs
and
children
at
home.”或许，快餐员还有两份其他的工作，又要照顾家里的孩子。因此，G项：或许，这位脾气不好的老人正经受着病痛折磨。既能体现出人的艰难，又与后面的Maybe...构成排比句式，故G项符合语境。
4．B 设空处为本段的首句，应为本段的主旨句，而本段内容主要是我们要向有需要的人提供帮助，故B项：帮助那些正在奋斗的人，符合语境。B项中的“Help
someone”与设空后的“whether
someone
needs
help”相呼应，故选B项。
5．C 设空处为本段的首句，应为本段的主旨句。本段内容主要是我们可以捐赠一些东西，这样的方式也可以为很多人带来益处，故C项：选择捐赠你用过的东西，符合语境。

①them改为themselves 此处relax的动作发出者，即其逻辑主语the
seniors与其宾语为同一对象，应用反身代词作relax的宾语，故将them改为themselves。
②in改为on 具体某一天前用介词on，故将in改为on。
③were改为are 全文主体时态为一般时态，因此此处应用be
to
do结构表示将来意义，故将were改为are。
④which改为whose 此处为非限制性定语从句，引导词作top的定语，表示所属关系，应用whose，故将which改为whose。
⑤删除第二个the at
noon为固定短语，意为“在正午”，中间不用定冠词，故删除第二个the。
⑥group改为groups 根据语境可知，此处表示“我们被分成几个组”，group为可数名词，此处应用复数形式，故将group改为groups。
⑦在Remember后加to remember
to
do
sth.为固定用法，意为“记得要做某事”，故在Remember后加to。
⑧late改为later 此处指之后在“我们”学校举办的照片展或者散文大赛。late意为“晚，迟”；later意为“后来；随后”，故将late改为later。
⑨taking改为take 根据上文的“Remember...
and
make
notes
for...”可知，此处也是一个祈使句，应用动词原形开头，故将taking改为take。
⑩Unless改为If 句意为：如果你想加入，请于4月5日前来学生会报名。unless意为“除非”；if意为“如果”，此处应用if引导条件状语从句，故将Unless改为If。
第二节 书面表达
【参考范文】
Dear
Henry，
Some
of
my
friends
and
I
plan
to
pay
a
visit
to
the
tea
garden
near
our
school
this
Sunday.
I've
learned
that
you
are
interested
in
Chinese
tea
culture,
and
I
wonder
if
you
could
join
us.
I
think
it
will
be
an
enjoyable
experience
for
you
to
learn
something
about
the
history
and
development
of
Chinese
tea
culture
there.
And
I
bet
you
will
be
impressed
by
the
traditional
craftsmanship
of
making
tea,
which
includes
washing
the
tea
pots,
adding
tea
leaves,
and
pouring
water
into
the
cups.
And
then
you
could
taste
the
tea
made
by
yourself.
I
am
looking
forward
to
your
reply.
With
best
wishes!
Yours，
