W：Hey,
Tom.
Do
you
like
your
job
at
that
fast
food
restaurant?
M：No,
not
really.
I
work
there
just
because
I
need
the
money
for
school
fees.
W：Why
don't
you
like
your
work
there?
Is
it
because
of
the
pay?
M：The
pay
isn't
that
bad
and
people
there
are
friendly.It's
just
that
the
work
is
a
bit
boring，and
I
don't
feel
that
I'm
learning
much
from
working
there.
Besides,
I
usually
have
to
stay
at
the
restaurant
until
9：00
pm.
W：Does
that
mean
you
don't
have
much
time
for
your
studies?
M：Yes.It's
usually
9：30
pm
by
the
time
I
get
back
to
my
dorm.
I
can
study
for
only
about
an
hour
because
I
can't
go
to
bed
too
late.
W：Why
not
consider
finding
an
easier
part?time
job?
M：I'm
trying，but
it's
not
easy
to
find
a
good
part?time
job.
So
are
you
still
working
at
the
supermarket?
W：No.
The
pay
was
too
low.
Now
I'm
teaching
part?time
at
a
language
school.

Welcome
to
Lockley
House.
It
is
a
fine
example
of
an
old
building
from
the
time
of
Queen
Elizabeth
the
First,
in
the
sixteenth
century.
As
you
go
up
the
stairs,

pictures
of
the
people
who
owned
the
house
through
the
centuries.
At
the
top
of
the
stairs
is
the
Gun
Room
with
guns
from
the
sixteenth
and
seventeenth
centuries.
It
is
one
of
the
finest
collections
in
the
country.
You
can
buy
a
book
about
them
in
the
Gift
Shop.
The
building
next
to
the
house
was
originally
built
as
an
indoor
tennis
court
but
today
it
is
an
indoor
swimming
pool.
There
are
jazz
concerts
in
the
Great
Hall
one

Bay's
famous
Art

Festival
that
will

place
on
October

2018.
本文属于应用说明文。介绍了加利福尼亚的南瓜节。
21．How
much
will
the
grower
receive
if
he/she
brings
the
heaviest
pumpkin
weighing
2,600
pounds?
A．$2,000.
B．$15,600.
C．$30,000.
D．$30,500.
答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段可知，组织者提供了30
000美元的奖金作为一个新纪录的南瓜进入半月湾。但是要想获得“新纪录奖”，种植者要带来超过在2017种植的2
624磅重的南瓜。如果比赛中最重的南瓜不能超过这个纪录，它的主人只能得每磅6美元的钱。而如果一个人带来重2
600磅重的南瓜，没有超过2
624磅，所以只以每磅6美元的钱计算。2
600×6＝15
600，故选B项。
22．Who
will
decide
on
the
most
beautiful
pumpkin?
A．The
growers.
B．The
art
judges.
C．The
organizers.
D．The
audience
present.
答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的Special
Prizes:
$500
for
the
most
beautiful
pumpkin,
judged
by
the
audience
(color,
shape
and
size)．可知由观众来判断，故选D项。
23．What
is
the
purpose
of
the
passage?
A．To
introduce
a
popular
festival.
B．To
inform
the
prize
for
a
competition.
C．To
explain
how
to
grow
huge
pumpkins.
D．To
attract
more
people
to
grow
pumpkins.
答案：A
解析：写作意图题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了加利福尼亚的南瓜节。B和D项是南瓜节的一个细节，C项文章没有涉及，所以A项符合题意。
B
A
retired
United
States
soldier
named
Terry
McGlade,
who
had
served
in
Iraq
and
Afghanistan,
his
dog
Major
is
a
hero.
He
is
specially
trained
to
says
sense
when
McGlade
is
about
to
have
a
seizure,
get
his
phone
and
dial
911
for
help.
When
Major
had
recently
sensed
an
incident
about
to
happen,
and
McGlade
collapsed
and
hit
the
floor,
Major
was
able
to
get
to
McGlade's
phone,
and
more
or
less
bite
on
the
phone
which
is
specially
set
up
so
that
when
multiple
buttons
are
pressed
and
held
in,
it
goes
into
emergency
call
mode,
and
dial
911.
“He
was
actually
able
to
get
my
phone
out
of
my
pocket，”
McGlade
said.
The
911
operators
who
got
the
call
from
Major
said
they
never
heard
him
bark
or
anything.
However,
they
could
hear
what
sounded
like
a
confused
man
in
the
background,
and
did
get
quite
suspicious
after
quite
a
few
calls
from
McGlade's
cell
phone
kept
coming
in.
Quite
clearly,
Major
was
using
his
leg
and
also
stepping
on
the
screen
to
get
the
phone
to
dial
for
help.
After
Major
was
sure
someone
would
be
on
their
way
to
help,
he
then
made
his
way
out
to
the
front
of
the
house
to
wait.
When
police
and
ambulance
arrived,
he
led
them
into
the
house
and
right
to
McGlade,
still
in
distress.
“I
probably
would
have
been
in
severe
trouble
if
he
wouldn't
have
called
，”
McGlade
said.
McGlade
was
taken
to
the
hospital,
where
he
was
kept
overnight
for
observation,
but
thanks
to
his
best
friend,
and
now
hero
of
the
day,
Major.
He
is
feeling
much
better,
and
will
make
a
full
recovery
with
little
risk
of
lasting
damage
from
this
particular
incident.
这是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了一条名叫Major的狗在主人发病的时候，成功拨打急救电话，挽救了主人生命的故事。
24．How
did
Major
manage
to
make
the
phone
go
into
emergency
call
mode?
A．By
keeping
barking
at
the
other
side
of
the
phone.
B．By
sending
a
text
message
to
the
911
operator.
C．By
biting
and
stepping
on
the
buttons
of
the
phone.
D．By
seeking
somebody
else
nearby
for
help.
答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Major
was
able
to
get
to
McGlade's
phone,
and
more
or
less
bite
on
the
phone
which
is
specially
set
up
so
that
when
multiple
buttons
are
pressed
and
held
in,
it
goes
into
emergency
call
mode,
and
dial
911.”和第四段中的“Quite
clearly,
Major
was
using
his
leg
and
also
stepping
on
the
screen
to
get
the
phone
to
dial
for
help.”可知，Major找到了McGlade的电话，咬一下专门设置的电话，这样当多个按钮按下并按住时，它就进入了紧急呼叫模式，并拨打了911。Major用他的腿，踩在屏幕上，拨打电话寻求帮助。综上，Major是通过咬和踩的方式，拨打急救电话的。故C选项正确。
25．What
do
we
know
about
the
incident?
A．Major
has
made
one
call
to
the
911
center
before
the
ambulance
came.
B．Operators
in
the
911
center
were
confused
by
Major's
calls.
C．Major
guided
the
police
and
the
doctor
to
the
house
to
save
McGlade.
D．McGlade
has
completely
recovered.
答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据第五段中的“When
police
and
ambulance
arrived,
he
led
them
into
the
house
and
right
to
McGlade,
still
in
distress.”可知，当警察和救护车到达时，Major领着他们进了房子，直到看见McGlade，此时，McGlade仍然在危难中。故C选项正确。

C
Christmas
in
America
means
different
things
to
different
people.
To
some
people,
Christmas
means
brightly
wrapped
packages
under
a
decorated
tree.
To
others,
it
means
family
reunions
and
a
wonderful
meal
together.
To
Christians,
it
means
Jesus'
birthday.
Christmas
also
means
lending
a
helping
hand
to
people
in
need.
Along
with
all
the
hubbub
(忙乱)
of
shopping
for
presents
and
sending
Christmas
cards,
many
people
in
America
take
time
to
help
others.
In
America
and
around
the
world,
Christmas
offers
many
opportunities
to
spread
“peace
on
earth,
good
will
toward
men.”
For
example,
Salvation
Army
bell
ringers
are
a
familiar
sight
to
most
Christmas
shoppers.
They
stand
outside
malls
and
stores
collecting
money
for
the
needy.
Many
churches
and
other
organizations
collect
toys
and
clothes
as
Christmas
gifts
for
poor
families.
Going
caroling
is
another
traditional
way
to
bring
cheer
to
neighbors—especially
the
elderly
and
people
who
can't
get
out
much.
The
Christmas
spirit
encourages
people
to
help
each
other
in
many
large
and
small
ways.
The
spirit
of
helping
others
isn't
limited
to
Christmas,
however.
Americans
help
others
year
round.
Civic
clubs
such
as
the
Lion's
Club,
the
Elk's
Club
and
the
Rotary
Club
take
part
in
local
community
projects.
Many
organizations
exist
just
to
help
others.
The
Make

Foundation
gives
terminally_ill_children
a
chance
to
have

Habitat
for
Humanity
helps
poor

build
their

And
besides
supporting
worthy
causes
with
their
money,
thousands
of
Americans
donate
their
time
by
serving
as
volunteers
in
hospitals,
homeless
shelters
and
schools.
As
the
old
saying
goes,
“Charity
begins
at
home”—but
it
doesn't
stop
there.
Americans
are
concerned
about
helping
needy
people
in
other
countries,
as
well.
The
US
is
often
one
of
the
first
countries
to
provide
relief
to
areas
of
the
world
in
severe
need.
Many
American
organizations
reach
out
to
suffering
people
in
other
countries.
Some
of
them
have
programs
by
which
donors
can
sponsor
needy
children.
For
a

D
I
used
to
teach
7th
grade
boys.
I
often
got
comments
of
sympathy,
but
I
loved
those
young
students.
When
I
first
started
teaching
them,
I
soon
realized
I
need
to
bring
forth
some
new
ideas
to
keep
their
attention,
so
I
came
up
with
the
idea
of
doing
object
lessons.
And
one
of
my
favourite
lessons
with
them
was
the
“Chocolate
Cake
Course”．
I
took
a
covered
cake
carrier
one
day
saying,
“I
want
you
to
have
some
chocolate
cakes
this
morning.”
Then,
I
handed
out
a
cup
of
cocoa
powder,
a
bowl
of
eggs,
and
container
with
flour,
oil,
sugar
and
all
the
other
ingredients
to
each
boy.
They
looked
at
me
in
puzzlement
and
disappointment.
I
smiled
as
I
told
them,
“I
know
it
doesn't
look
like
a
chocolate
cake
now,
but
without
adding
all
those
ingredients,
you
won't
end
up
with
a
delicious
chocolate
cake.”
We
discussed
the
way
the
ingredients
were
put
in
a
bowl
and
then
beaten
by
a
mixer.
We
talked
about
how
the
batter(糊状物)
was
put
into
pans
and
placed
in
a
hot
oven.
Then
I
shared
with
them
how
the
process
mirrors
our
lives.
Sometimes
there
were
sweet
times,
like
the
sugar
that
went
into
the
cake.
Sometimes
there
were
bitter
times,
like
the
cocoa
when
eaten
alone.
And
sometimes
there
were
hard
times
when
we
felt
as
if
we
were
being
beaten
like
the
batter.
Finally,
we
talked
about
how
it
was
necessary
for
the
cake
batter
to
go
into
a
hot
oven.
Sometimes
we
felt
the
heat
of
hot
oven
as
if
we
were
going
through
some
hard
circumstances.
Just
like
I
need
to
have
a
plan
for
that
chocolate
cake,
we
need
to
know
exactly
what
ingredients
to
put
into
our
lives
and
how
long
we
need
to
stay
in
the
oven
of
hard
times
so
that
we
could
become
stronger
and
get
the
sweetness
from
life.
Looking
at
their
faces
throughout
the
room,
I
could
tell
the
boys
had
got
it,
especially
when
I
showed
a
chocolate
cake
for
them
to
share.
这是一篇记叙文。作者通过自己的“制作实物课”的想法给学生课上制作巧克力蛋糕，并得出感悟：就像需要为那块巧克力蛋糕制订一个计划一样，我们需要确切地知道该往我们的生活中添加什么成分，以及我们需要在艰难时期在烤箱里待多久，这样我们才能变得更坚强，从生活中获得甜蜜。

are
some
quick
and
easy

help
you
become
a
better
person.
__37__
Recognize
what
areas
you
are
lacking.
For
this
you
can
ask
a
trusted
friend
or
a
family
member
for
help.
Being
unaware
of
your
weaknesses
makes
it
hard
for
you
to
improve.

successful
people
know
where
they
aren't
strong
and
they
use
their
strengths
to
make
up

Quitting
a

is
good
for

out
with
small
steps.

encouragement
if
you're
struggling.
Break

have
a
bad
influence
on
your

making
excuses.

to
do
it”与上句中的making
positive
changes

what
areas
you
are
lacking.”(了解你在哪些方面有缺陷)和“Being
unaware
of
your
weaknesses
makes
it
hard
for
you
to
improve.”可知本段的主题句应为“要知道你的弱点”，故答案为A项。

a
bad
habit)。E项中的it指代上句中的“Quitting
a
bad
habit”，故答案为E项。E项(它不仅可以使你更完美还可以使你更自信)承接上句(改掉坏习惯对你有好处)，进一步介绍Quitting
a
bad
habit
具体带来什么好处。
39．D 解析：D项中的“negative”与本部分主题句中的“negative”相对应，属于“词汇复现”，故答案为D项。句意：你总是看到事情的消极的一面吗？这对你的生活影响很坏。消极思想真的会使你身心俱疲。

best
friend,
Sally,
was
also
happy
for
me.
She
said
the
last
vice
monitor,
Joey,
had
been
very
rude
and
__57__
(kind)
to
her.
She
always
talked
about
it,
but
I
usually
__58__
(ignore)
it.
Charlie
and
I
have
to
stay
behind
after
school
to
make
sure
the
classroom
is
clean.
I
came
back
before
Charlie
last
Thursday.
I
found
Sally
at
Joey's
desk
__59__
(cut)
up
Joey's
English
textbook.
I
was
__60__
(extreme)
shocked.
Sally
asked
me
not
to
tell
anyone.
After
that,
she
ran
out
and
Charlie
came
in.
Charlie
saw
the
book
and
soon
realized
__61__
had
happened.
He
asked
me
what
I
had
seen
but
I
said
__62__.
The
next
day,
Joey
was
crying.
She
was
__63__
(frighten)
to
tell
our
teacher
because
she
may
think
she
did
it.
Sally
is
happy
about
this.
This
makes
me
angry.
Charlie
insists
that
I
__64__
(tell)
our

the
truth,
but
I
am
concerned
__65__
the

with
Sally.
What
should

本文讲述了作者在学校处理人际关系时遇到的困惑。
56．who
解析：考查关系代词。先行词是the
monitor，在定语从句中作主语，逗号后不能用that，故填who。
57．unkind
解析：考查形容词。根据并列词前的very
rude得知，以前的副班长很粗鲁对她不友好，故填unkind。
58．ignored
解析：考查动词时态。根据She
always
talked
about
it及but连接并列时态，可知这里也用一般过去时，故填ignored。
59．cutting/was_cutting
解析：考查动词。find
somebody
doing某人正在做某事。Sally和“切碎”是主动关系，我们也可以把此空看成find后宾语从句的谓语动词，故填cutting/was
cutting。
60．extremely
解析：考查副词。副词修饰形容词，故填extremely。
61．what
解析：考查关系词。句意：查理看到课本并很快意识到发生了什么。realize后面是宾语从句，从句中缺少主语，表示“所……的”，故填what。
62．nothing
解析：考查不定代词。句意：我什么也没有说，故填nothing。
63．frightened
解析：考查形容词。be动词后用形容词，人作主语，表示“害怕的”用?ed形式的形容词，故填frightened。
64．(should)_tell
解析：考查虚拟语气。insist表示“坚持要求”，后面的宾语从句中用虚拟语气，谓语动词用should加动词原形，should可以被省略，故填(should)
tell。
65．about
解析：考查介词。be
concerned
about是固定短语，表示“担忧某事”，故填about。

第二节(满分25分)
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。续写的词数应为150左右。
Zigfried
was
a
little
mouse
who
used
to
live
with
a
happy
family.
The
children
of
the
family
would
hug
him
in
the
arms
and
discuss
about
their
Christmas
gifts.
Zigfried
enjoyed
every
hour
of
them,
especially
when
he
was
drinking
hot
chocolate.
Suddenly
he
was
woken
up
by
the
noise
coming
from
his
own
stomach.
He
stretched
himself
and
rubbed
his
eyes.
Slowly
and
feebly
he
climbed
to
the
windowsill.
Zigfried
blew
his
breath
on
the
frosty
window
of
the
farmhouse
and
rubbed
it
to
see
the
outside.
Still
nobody
came.
Maybe
today,
he
thought
hopefully.
It
was
only
a
few
days
before
Christmas
and
he
was
watching
for
a
miracle.
This
farmhouse
had
been
empty
too
long.
All
the
equipment
was
covered
with
dust
and
dirt.
Everything
looked
like
dead
ashes.
It
needed
a
family.
Only
a
family's
moving
in
could
light
up
the
house.
Again
Zigfried's
stomach
made
a
noise.
He
realized
that
he
hadn't
eaten
anything
since
yesterday.
He
jumped
from
the
windowsill,
took
a
bag
from
his
home,
and
went
next
door
to
Farmer
Mike's.
He
wished
to
get
something
to
eat
for
the
present.
If
lucky
enough,
he
could
store
some
sandwiches,
cheese
or
chocolates
for
the
coming
of
his
granny
who
would
arrive
on
Christmas
Eve
to
celebrate
with
him,
bringing
a
Christmas
gift.
Farmer
Mike's
house
had
been
a
great
place
for
the
little
mouse
until
the
farmer
married
a
wife
who
had
a
cat.
The
cat
was
in
and
out
of
the
window
constantly
and
meowed
horribly
into
the
bargain.
Zigfried
trembled
when
he
thought
of
that
narrow
escape
with
the
cat.
He
looked
around
carefully
as
he
stole
into
the
room
where
grain
was
stored
and
was
quite
nervous
as
he
filled
his
bag
with
wheat.
答案
Paragraph
1：
He
was
turning
to
leave
when
suddenly
he
felt
a
hot
breath
about
his
ear.
The
cat
placed
his
paw
upon
the
bag
and
began
to
open
his
big
jaws
to
swallow
him.
His
heart
beat
wildly,
and
without
thinking,
he
started
to
run
as
quickly
as
he
could
and
luckily
escaped
the
cat's
paws.
But
the
bag
filled
with
delicious
food
was
left
in
the
barn.
He
took
a
deep
breath
and
bit
his
teeth
pretending
to
enjoy
something
he
liked.
Paragraph
2：
The
next
afternoon
Zigfried
heard
some
good
news:
a
new
family
would
be
moving
into
the
farmhouse
soon.
Before
long,
a
car
came
up
the
road
leading
to
the
house,
with
butter
sandwiches,
cheese
and
chocolate.
Zigfried's
Christmas
miracle
did
arrive!
The
house
came
alive
the
next
few
days.
However,
the
day
before
Christmas,
he
heard
the
discussion
of
the
children
of
the
family
about
what
they
might
get
as
Christmas
gifts.
What?
A
cat?
The
smile
froze
on
his
face;
his
mouth
fell
wild
open.
After
a
long
while,
he
at
last
found
his
voice:
“Hey!
Whose
Christmas
miracle
is
this？”Unit

B
A
retired
United
States
soldier
named
Terry
McGlade,
who
had
served
in
Iraq
and
Afghanistan,
his
dog
Major
is
a
hero.
He
is
specially
trained
to
says
sense
when
McGlade
is
about
to
have
a
seizure,
get
his
phone
and
dial
911
for
help.
When
Major
had
recently
sensed
an
incident
about
to
happen,
and
McGlade
collapsed
and
hit
the
floor,
Major
was
able
to
get
to
McGlade's
phone,
and
more
or
less
bite
on
the
phone
which
is
specially
set
up
so
that
when
multiple
buttons
are
pressed
and
held
in,
it
goes
into
emergency
call
mode,
and
dial
911.
“He
was
actually
able
to
get
my
phone
out
of
my
pocket，”
McGlade
said.
The
911
operators
who
got
the
call
from
Major
said
they
never
heard
him
bark
or
anything.
However,
they
could
hear
what
sounded
like
a
confused
man
in
the
background,
and
did
get
quite
suspicious
after
quite
a
few
calls
from
McGlade's
cell
phone
kept
coming
in.
Quite
clearly,
Major
was
using
his
leg
and
also
stepping
on
the
screen
to
get
the
phone
to
dial
for
help.
After
Major
was
sure
someone
would
be
on
their
way
to
help,
he
then
made
his
way
out
to
the
front
of
the
house
to
wait.
When
police
and
ambulance
arrived,
he
led
them
into
the
house
and
right
to
McGlade,
still
in
distress.
“I
probably
would
have
been
in
severe
trouble
if
he
wouldn't
have
called
，”
McGlade
said.
McGlade
was
taken
to
the
hospital,
where
he
was
kept
overnight
for
observation,
but
thanks
to
his
best
friend,
and
now
hero
of
the
day,
Major.
He
is
feeling
much
better,
and
will
make
a
full
recovery
with
little
risk
of
lasting
damage
from
this
particular
incident.
这是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了一条名叫Major的狗在主人发病的时候，成功拨打急救电话，挽救了主人生命的故事。

of
the
phone.

biting
and
stepping

Christmas
in
America
means
different
things
to
different
people.
To
some
people,
Christmas
means
brightly
wrapped
packages
under
a
decorated
tree.
To
others,
it
means
family
reunions
and
a
wonderful
meal
together.
To
Christians,
it
means
Jesus'
birthday.
Christmas
also
means
lending
a
helping
hand
to
people
in
need.
Along
with
all
the
hubbub
(忙乱)
of
shopping
for
presents
and
sending
Christmas
cards,
many
people
in
America
take
time
to
help
others.
In
America
and
around
the
world,
Christmas
offers
many
opportunities
to
spread
“peace
on
earth,
good
will
toward
men.”
For
example,
Salvation
Army
bell
ringers
are
a
familiar
sight
to
most
Christmas
shoppers.
They
stand
outside
malls
and
stores
collecting
money
for
the
needy.
Many
churches
and
other
organizations
collect
toys
and
clothes
as
Christmas
gifts
for
poor
families.
Going
caroling
is
another
traditional
way
to
bring
cheer
to
neighbors—especially
the
elderly
and
people
who
can't
get
out
much.
The
Christmas
spirit
encourages
people
to
help
each
other
in
many
large
and
small
ways.
The
spirit
of
helping
others
isn't
limited
to
Christmas,
however.
Americans
help
others
year
round.
Civic
clubs
such
as
the
Lion's
Club,
the
Elk's
Club
and
the
Rotary

I
used
to
teach
7th
grade
boys.
I
often
got
comments
of
sympathy,
but
I
loved
those
young
students.
When
I
first
started
teaching
them,
I
soon
realized
I
need
to
bring
forth
some
new
ideas
to
keep
their
attention,
so
I
came
up
with
the
idea
of
doing
object
lessons.
And
one
of
my
favourite
lessons
with
them
was
the
“Chocolate
Cake
Course”．
I
took
a
covered
cake
carrier
one
day
saying,
“I
want
you
to
have
some
chocolate
cakes
this
morning.”
Then,
I
handed
out
a
cup
of
cocoa
powder,
a
bowl
of
eggs,
and
container
with
flour,
oil,
sugar
and
all
the
other
ingredients
to
each
boy.
They
looked
at
me
in
puzzlement
and
disappointment.
I
smiled
as
I
told
them,
“I
know
it
doesn't
look
like
a
chocolate
cake
now,
but
without
adding
all
those
ingredients,
you
won't
end
up
with
a
delicious
chocolate
cake.”
We
discussed
the
way
the
ingredients
were
put
in
a
bowl
and
then
beaten
by
a
mixer.
We
talked
about
how
the
batter(糊状物)
was
put
into
pans
and
placed
in
a
hot
oven.
Then
I
shared
with
them
how
the
process
mirrors
our
lives.
Sometimes
there
were
sweet
times,
like
the
sugar
that
went
into
the
cake.
Sometimes
there
were
bitter
times,
like
the
cocoa
when
eaten
alone.
And
sometimes
there
were
hard
times
when
we
felt
as
if
we
were
being
beaten
like
the
batter.
Finally,
we
talked
about
how
it
was
necessary
for
the
cake
batter
to
go
into
a
hot
oven.
Sometimes
we
felt
the
heat
of
hot
oven
as
if
we
were
going
through
some
hard
circumstances.
Just
like
I
need
to
have
a
plan
for
that
chocolate
cake,
we
need
to
know
exactly
what
ingredients
to
put
into
our
lives
and
how
long
we
need
to
stay
in
the
oven
of
hard
times
so
that
we
could
become
stronger
and
get
the
sweetness
from
life.
Looking
at
their
faces
throughout
the
room,
I
could
tell
the
boys
had
got
it,
especially
when
I
showed
a
chocolate
cake
for
them
to
share.
这是一篇记叙文。作者通过自己的“制作实物课”的想法给学生课上制作巧克力蛋糕，并得出感悟：就像需要为那块巧克力蛋糕制订一个计划一样，我们需要确切地知道该往我们的生活中添加什么成分，以及我们需要在艰难时期在烤箱里待多久，这样我们才能变得更坚强，从生活中获得甜蜜。

Recognize
what
areas
you
are
lacking.
For
this
you
can
ask
a
trusted
friend
or
a
family
member
for
help.
Being
unaware
of
your
weaknesses
makes
it
hard
for
you
to
improve.

where
they
aren't
strong
and
they
use
their
strengths
to

start
out
with
small
steps.
Find
a
trusted
friend
that
can
give
you
encouragement
if
you're
struggling.
Break
with
negative
thinking.
__39__
This

a
bad
influence
on
your
life.
Negative
thinking
really
makes
you
down
mentally
and
physically.
Trying
to
think
more
positively
helps
you
reduce
stress
and
requires
you
to
stop
making
excuses.

others
with
kindness.
Showing
other
people
that
you
care
for
them
is
a
great
way
to

a
better
person.

classmates
can
make
a

positive
impact
on
their
and
your
day.

your
weaknesses.

better
care
of
yourself.

figure
out
how

Zigfried
was
a
little
mouse
who
used
to
live
with
a
happy
family.
The
children
of
the
family
would
hug
him
in
the
arms
and
discuss
about
their
Christmas
gifts.
Zigfried
enjoyed
every
hour
of
them,
especially
when
he
was
drinking
hot
chocolate.
Suddenly
he
was
woken
up
by
the
noise
coming
from
his
own
stomach.
He
stretched
himself
and
rubbed
his
eyes.
Slowly
and
feebly
he
climbed
to
the
windowsill.
Zigfried
blew
his
breath
on
the
frosty
window
of
the
farmhouse
and
rubbed
it
to
see
the
outside.
Still
nobody
came.
Maybe
today,
he
thought
hopefully.
It
was
only
a
few
days
before
Christmas
and
he
was
watching
for
a
miracle.
This
farmhouse
had
been
empty
too
long.
All
the
equipment
was
covered
with
dust
and
dirt.
Everything
looked
like
dead
ashes.
It
needed
a
family.
Only
a
family's
moving
in
could
light
up
the
house.
Again
Zigfried's
stomach
made
a
noise.
He
realized
that
he
hadn't
eaten
anything
since
yesterday.
He
jumped
from
the
windowsill,
took
a
bag
from
his
home,
and
went
next
door
to
Farmer
Mike's.
He
wished
to
get
something
to
eat
for
the
present.
If
lucky
enough,
he
could
store
some
sandwiches,
cheese
or
chocolates
for
the
coming
of
his
granny
who
would
arrive
on
Christmas
Eve
to
celebrate
with
him,
bringing
a
Christmas
gift.
Farmer
Mike's
house
had
been
a
great
place
for
the
little
mouse
until
the
farmer
married
a
wife
who
had
a
cat.
The
cat
was
in
and
out
of
the
window
constantly
and
meowed
horribly
into
the
bargain.
Zigfried
trembled
when
he
thought
of
that
narrow
escape
with
the
cat.
He
looked
around
carefully
as
he
stole
into
the
room
where
grain
was
stored
and
was
quite
nervous
as
he
filled
his
bag
with
wheat.
