W:
Look
at
the
sky!
It’s
fantastic!
What
a
bright
and
colorful
scene!
Even
more
beautiful
than
sunset
clouds
and
stars!
Could
I
join
and
play
with
the
kids?
M:
No,
sweetie.
You
can’t
do
that.
It’s
not
only
dangerous
but
also
bad
for
the
environment.

M:
Oh,
you
look
pale.
Are
you
feeling
ill?
Do
you
want
to
take
your
time
off
the
work?
W:
No,
I
am
just
feeling
a
little
sick
since
it
ran
so
fast
and
turned
suddenly.
Thanks
for
caring.
I’ll
get
off
at
the
next
stop.

W:
Hi,
Henry,
why
didn’t
you
go
to
the
movies
last
night?
M:
I
did
go
there.
But
where
were
you
then?
Didn’t
you
tell
me
that
the
movie
started
at
7
p.m.
in
Room
1?
W:
It
did
start
at
7
p.m.,
but
the
movie
Hi,
Mom
was
played
in
Room
7!

W:
Spring
is
coming!
How
about
a
picnic
tomorrow?
M:
Good
idea!
But
the
weather
report
said
it
would
start
to
rain
tomorrow
afternoon.
How
about
putting
it
off
until
Friday
when
the
weather
clears
up?

W:
Why
are
you
so
late?
I
remember
it’s
only
thirty
minutes’
walk
to
get
here,
right?
M:
Yes,
but
it
was
cold
outside
so
I
decided
to
drive
to
work.
But
when
I
walked
to
the
garage,
I
found
my
car
was
stolen.
W:
Did
you
report
the
theft?
M:
Yes.
Plus,
one
of
my
neighbors
lent
me
his
bike.

W:
Hi,
Andre,
I
read
on
WeChat
that
you
walked
40,000
steps
yesterday!
Did
you
run
a
marathon?
M:
Err...
I
did
run
a
“marathon”!
Well,
while
I
was
enjoying
the
beautiful
sunshine
on
the
bench
in
a
nearby
park,
a
dog
suddenly
came
out
and
carried
my
phone
away.
W:
Then?
Did
you
take
it
back?
M:
I
tried
but
the
dog
ran
so
fast.
I
was
quickly
left
behind
and
the
only
thing
I
could
do
was
just
stare
after
it.
W:
Oh,
that
was
bad.
Have
you
called
any
friends
or
neighbors
to
help
catch
the
dog?
M:
Oh,
the
police
came.
But
they
also
failed.

M:
Oh,
Maggie,
you
finally
turned
up.
How
was
everything
going?
W:
Very
well.
I
had
a
very
nice
talk
with
the
personnel
manager.
M:
Congratulations!
And
welcome
to
our
company!
W:
Thanks
for
putting
a
good
word
for
me
in
front
of
the
manager.
M:
Don’t
mention
it.
You
got
the
job
just
because
of
your
skills.
You’ve
been
in
the
business
world
for
more
than
ten
years
and
you
always
worked
hard.
W:
Thanks
for
your
help
anyway.
I
will
come
here
again
next
Tuesday.
M:
So
late?
I
thought
it
would
be
this
Thursday
or
Friday.
I
can’t
wait
to
work
with
you！

W:
Have
you
watched
Ten
of
China’s
Inspirational
Role
Models
2020
last
night?
M:
Oh,
I
was
busy
finishing
my
school
project
then.
I
wanted
to
leave
a
good
impression
on
my
new
teacher.
So
I
only
caught
up
with
the
latter
half
of
the
program.
W:
I
was
moved
to
tears!
I
intend
to
write
a
report
on
it.
How
about
you?
M:
Me
too!
I
think
all
of
them
are
great
though
they’ve
been
doing
different
things.
W:
You
are
correct.
Zhang
Guimei
is
the
one
who
touched
me
the
most.
She
really
set
an
example
for
me
about
how
to
become
a
good
teacher.
M:
I
know
she
is
a
headmaster
of
a
girls’
high
school
in
Yunnan,
southwest
China.
Is
she
a
local?
W:
She
does
work
as
a
headmaster
there.
However,
only
a
few
people
know
that
she
is
from
an
ordinary
family
in
northeast
China.
M:
Really?
But
she
really
looks
like
a
southerner.

M:
What
do
you
usually
eat
for
breakfast?
W:
Well,
you
know,
I
always
stay
up
late
to
finish
my
novels
so
I
often
just
grasp
some
toast
as
I
get
up
too
late.
M:
Oh,
you
shouldn’t
do
like
this
anymore.
It
will
damage
your
health.
W:
You
are
right!
Recently,
my
head
often
aches
at
night
so
I
decide
to
change
my
lifestyle.
M:
Then
what
are
you
going
to
do?
W:
Err...
I
will
get
up
earlier,
run
for
one
hour
and
then
make
my
family
a
hearty
breakfast.
M:
That’s
really
a
good
idea.
Then
what
about
your
menu?
Perhaps
oatmeal
porridge
is
a
good
choice.
W:
My
mother
who
is
a
doctor
always
says
that
oatmeal
is
good
for
our
stomachs
but
my
father
really
hates
it
due
to
the
strange
flavor.
M:
Then
why
not
take
corn
or
pumpkin
instead?
W:
Pumpkin
is
quite
to
my
taste!
And
I
can
also
use
it
to
make
some
pies
for
my
mother.
M:
Maybe
you
can
also
make
some
donuts
for
your
sister.
Little
girls
are
always
fond
of
them.
W:
But
too
much
sweet
food
will
do
harm
to
her
teeth.
I
guess
I’ll
get
her
some
corn.

Hello,
everyone,
have
you
ever
heard
about
the
Sandwich
Generation?
Actually,
this
phrase
has
nothing
to
do
with
food
or
the
people
who
make
sandwiches.
It
refers
to
the
generation
caught
in
the
middle,
or
in
other
words,
it
is
the
middle-aged
people
who
support
both
their
parents
and
children
whether
financially,
physically
or
emotionally.
According
to
the
Healthy
China
2030,
the
average
life
expectancy
of
Chinese
people
will
reach
79
years
which
is
2
years
longer
than
that
in
2018.
As
people
live
longer,
the
Sandwich
Generation
is
becoming
more
and
more
common.
Becoming
a
part
of
the
Sandwich
Generation
can
affect
your
financial
status,
personal
time,
health,
and
career
development.
Although
both
men
and
women
are
involved,
women
are
the
ones
who
are
primarily
affected.
Most
women
have
common
difficulties
in
dealing
with
various
aspects
including
children,
older
parents,
family,
work,
and
personal
well-being.
Although
they
are
encouraged
to
go
into
the
workforce,
nursery
supply
remains
the
biggest
problem
for
them.
But
I
don’t
think
it
is
an
unsolvable
problem.
In
my
opinion,
if
the
government
give
financial
support
to
take
care
of
children
and
parents,
it
will
greatly
reduce
the
burden
on
the
Sandwich
Generation.

persistent,
not

increasing
abundance
of
greenhouse
gases
in
the
atmosphere
due
to
human
activities
is
the
direct
cause
of
this
recent
global
warming.”可以看出，导致大气升温的直接因素主要是人类活动产生的日渐增加的温室气体。因此，人们因该通过改变生活方式，减少温室气体的排放来缓解这种趋势，故选D。

after,
Canadian
Orange
Jull
improved
the
design
with
a
new

tired
of
climbing

Snowblower”

Dear
Sir,
I’d
like
to
recommend
Nancy
for
the
title
of
“Campus
Star
in
Hongxing
Middle
School”.
We
have
been
in
the
same
class
for
nearly
one
year,
so
I
know
her
very
well.
I
believe
she
deserves
this
title.
First,
she
makes
great
effort
in
study
and
achieves
high
grades
in
every
examination,
and
receives
great
recognition
from
both
teachers
and
students.
Second,
being
a
member
of
the
school
volunteer
team,
she
is
always
ready
to
participate
in
after-school
activities,
such
as,
planting
trees,
visiting
lonely
old
people.
What’s
more,
she
is
quite
interested
and
talented
in
scientific
and
technological
innovation.
Last
month,
she
got
the
first
prize
for
her
design,
an
environmentally
friendly
window,
in
the
Nationwide
Creative
Design
Contest.
As
a
result,
I
think
she
is
a
real
“Campus
Star”.
Please
take
my
recommendation
into
consideration.
I
can
provide
more
information
if
needed.
Yours,
Li
Hua

第二节
读后续写（满分25分）
After
reaching
there,
we
found
the
tickets
needed
to
be
bought
by
credit
card
which
we
didn’t
have.
As
the
last
train
was
going
to
leave,
we
were
at
a
loss
about
what
to
do
when
the
“fancy-face”
boy
took
his
card
to
buy
two
tickets
for
us
without
hesitation.
We
wanted
to
give
him
the
money;
however,
he
just
refused
our
offer.
We
could
do
nothing
but
express
how
we
were
grateful
for
what
he
had
done
for
us.
Finally,
he
just
waved
goodbye
to
us
before
we
asked
his
name.
After
we
arrived
home,
we
told
our
daughter
about
the
story
of
that
kind
boy.
To
be
honest,
we
didn’t
even
believe
that
a
young
boy
looking
not
very
nice
was
one
who
gave
us
a
hand.
“Don’t
judge
a
book
by
his
cover.”
This
is
a
big
lesson
for
us
to
learn.
The
boy
has
the
courage
to
shoulder
the
responsibility
at
such
a
young
age
and
he
is
just
so
kind-hearted.
And
this
memory
will
store
up
in
our
hearts
forever
and
remind
us
of
being
ready
to
help
others,
too.
