Elephant Transit Home
In both Africa and Asia elephants are being threatened by changes in their natural habitats. People are moving into the elephants' habitats and endangering their survival. In the country of Sri Lanka, there is one place where elephants are not only protected but also respected. It is called the Elephant Transit Home (ETH).
Set up in 1995, the ETH aims to protect and nurture baby elephants that are found injured or living without their mothers in the wild. Every year about 30 baby elephants in Sri Lanka need help. As many as possible are brought to the ETH. There they are given food, shelter, and medical care. Most importantly, they are given the chance to be with other elephants and become part of an elephant herd (象群).
A day at the ETH begins early in the morning when the baby elephants are given their first feeding of milk. During the day, each baby will drink an average of 13 gallons of milk. Older elephants are fed mostly coconut leaves and other native plants. Then the elephants are allowed to walk around, eating the grass and forming a herd. The cost of caring for the baby elephants is high. The ETH spends about $125,000 each year on powdered milk for the baby elephants.
At the ETH, workers try to reduce human connection with the elephants. They also try to increase bonds(联系) between the elephants. It usually takes three years for a baby elephant to be set free into its natural habitat. The elephants are sent back to the wild together with other orphans with whom they have bonded. This program helps them return to the wild as members of a herd that will communicate with each other and take care of each other.
The ETH is considered one of the best animal protection sites in the world. The elephants there are not only cared for, but also treated with respect. Most importantly, they will go back to live in the wild, where they belong.

C
As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remembering less?If you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own personal memory, your brain?Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.
In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments.She and her research team wanted to know how the Internet is changing memory.In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer.The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information.The second group understood that the computer would not save it.Later, the second group remembered the information better.People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.
In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the computer.The information was in a specific computer folder(文件夹).Surprisingly, people later remembered the folder location(位置)better than the facts.When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information.Rather, they remember how to find it.This is called“transactive memory(交互记忆)”.
According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet.Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memories;that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date.This doesn't mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.
8.The passage begins with two questions to .
A.introduce the main topic
B.show the author's attitude
C.describe how to use the Internet
D.explain how to store information
9.What can we learn about the first experiment?
A.The Sparrow's team typed the information into a computer.
B.The two groups remembered the information equally well.
C.The first group did not try to remember the information.
D.The second group did not understand the information.
10.In transactive memory, people .
A.keep the information in mind
B.change the quantity of information
C.organize information like a computer
D.remember how to find the information
11.What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow's research?
A.We are using memory differently.
B.We are becoming more intelligent.
C.We have poorer memories than before.
D.We need a better way to access information.

Fishy Weather Conditions
Laj amanu,Australia,is a dry little town,sitting right on the edge of the Tanami Desert. Can you imagine how surprised were people when live fish rained down on them from a dark gray cloud? It happens that there are similar cases in England and Honduras.
How do clouds make fish? The simple answer is that they don't.There is a particular weather phenomenon(现象)called a waterspout.A waterspout is just like a tornado, only it forms above oceans, lakes, or rivers.Like a tornado, a waterspout moves in a circle at high speed.When it moves above the water, it tends to carry the fish with it, as well as frogs or other small plants or animals.
Scientists couldn't work it out at first. To make matters stranger still, the fish in Honduras were very alive when they rained down to the ground, but they were all blind.In England and Australia,it rained fish and snakes,and none were blind. It was difficult to puzzle out,but the blind fish gave them a place to start.
Scientists knew that some fish that lived in deep, underground caves with no light sources often lost their eyesight. So when blind fish rained down on Honduras,scientists began to connect some dots.Clearly, these particular fish were pulled from an underground water source by force.
It has rained fish on every continent, and each time, people have tried in various ways to explain this strange phenomenon.Historically, villagers thought the“fish from the heavens”might be an answer to prayers for food. Others suggested that floods overran river banks and oceans,leaving the fish on the city streets.No scientist had actually seen the rain as it occurred,only the fish left on the ground.But in 1990,a National Geographic team happened to be in Honduras when the rain of fish began. They recorded what was happening and made history by finally proving that the fish really fell from the sky.
This huge breakthrough wasn't just a spot of good luck. It changed thousands of years of myths and legends into true stories and provided scientific explanations for how fish came to live in deep caves. It explained ancient cave paintings and shed new light on how species have spread over time.It turned out to be a lot more than just a little fishy weather.
12.According to the passage, a waterspout .
A.can make animals blind
B.is difficult to catch on film
C.can carry items with it
D.is a dangerous sea creature
13.The blind fish made the scientists start to think that .
A.raining fish was a warning of natural disasters
B.animals changed to match their environments
C.the weather system differed from place to place
D.the waterspout theory seemed more possible
14.The underlined sentence in the last paragraph probably suggests that .
A.waterspouts came to be a center of scientific research
B.the scientists were fortunate to have made their discoveries
C.hard work went into determining the cause for the raining fish
D.the scientists relied heavily on unusual events to drive their studies
15.The author writes the passage to .
A.describe the magic phenomenon
B.explain what caused the fishy weather
C.persuade people to protect the environment
D.encourage people to do scientific research

Develop Note-Taking Skills
While attending a lecture, students are often surprised that their teacher can pick out a speaker's main points, evidence, and techniques. Of course, the teacher knows what to listen for and has had plenty of practice. But next time you get an opportunity, watch your teacher during a speech. Chances are she or he will be listening with a pen and paper. 16
Unfortunately, many people don't take notes effectively. Some try to write down everything a speaker says. They view note taking as a race, pitting their handwriting agility(敏捷) against the speaker's rate of speech. 17 But soon the speaker is winning the race. The speaker pulls so far ahead that the note taker can never catch up. Finally, the note taker admits defeat and spends the rest of the speech grumbling in frustration.
18 They arrive armed with pens, notebooks, and the best of intentions. They know they can't write down everything, so they settle comfortably in their seats and wait for the speaker to say something that grabs their attention. Every once in a while the speaker rewards them with a joke, a dramatic story, or a startling fact. Then the note taker seizes the pen, jots down a few words, and leans back dreamily to await the next fascinating tidbit(趣闻). By the end of the lecture the note taker has a set of tidbits—and little or no record of the speaker's important ideas.
As these examples illustrate, they don't know what to listen to, and they don't know how to record what they do listen to. The solution to the first problem is to focus on a speaker's main points and evidence. 19
Although there are a number of systems, most students find the key-word outline best for listening to speeches. As its name suggests, this method briefly notes a speaker's main points and supporting evidence in the rough outline form. By separating main points from sub-points and evidence, the outline format shows the relationships among the speaker's ideas. 20 But with a little effort you will become a better note taker.
A.As the speaker starts to talk, the note taker starts to write.
B.Most inefficient note takers suffer from one or both of two problems.
C.Perfecting this method requires practice.
D.Taking effective notes usually helps you receive higher grades.
E.Some people go to the opposite extreme.
F.But once you know what to listen to, you still need a sound method of note taking.
G.When note taking is done properly, it is sure to keep track of a speaker's ideas.

When Jayce Crowder was in kindergarten,he was sad that he looked different from his classmates. They had two hands. He had one.
“It started when one boy teased him,” said his mother, Cortney Lewis. Jayce's enthusiasm 21 .He'd return to their home with questions:Why am I different? Why me?Lewis admitted she didn't know what to do at that point. How could she 22 answers for her son's questions when she had never found those answers herself?
A few weeks later, Lewis turned on the TV to a news story about an eighth grader from Washington, Iowa. Trashaun Willis, then 14, had become an Internet 23 after posting videos of his slam dunks (灌篮), and, like Jayce, he was 24 most of his left arm. Lewis called Jayce in. He was completely attracted, watching dunk after dunk.
At the time, it seemed that watching Trashaun would simply be a(n) 25 moment for Jayce. 26 little did Lewis know that a family friend had already got in touch with the Des Moines Register,asking the newspaper to help set up a meeting with Trashaun to build Jayce's 27 .
The boys met at Washington Middle School on a Saturday afternoon a couple of months later,and instantly bonded. The day was not spent wallowing (沉浸) in self-pity—it was full of 28 . They rode bikes around the school's hallways,took photos, played hide-and-seek, and shot baskets. Trashaun 29 gave Jayce a shirt that says “Ten fingers are overrated.”
At one point,Trashaun did get serious with Jayce. He said not to let anyone drag him down and not to let any words 30 his confidence. Since that meeting, Lewis has seen a visible 31 in her son,who is now seven and in second grade. He recently started wrestling and loved it. Lewis pointed to Trashaun's 32 . “Meeting him,” she said, “made Jayce 33 that there are others like him.”
As for Trashaun,his relationship with Jayce made him look forward to 34 more kids, perhaps as a youth coach with a nonprofit organization devoted to coaching kids with limb disabilities.
“Honestly,it means a lot to know that I changed Jayce's 35 ,” said Trashaun. Still, he never dreamed that his videos would have such an effect. “I just thought my friends would see my videos and be like, ‘Oh,he dunked it!'” Obviously, he did more than that!

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。
My family moved from Taiwan to a small town in central Georgia, where my dad got a visa for his family and a job. I had just learned English, and from what little I could gather from my friends, Santa Claus would come down one's chimney and put toys in one's stocking on Christmas Eve! What a great country, I thought. After I looked up “stocking” in my Chinese-English dictionary, I knew what I had to do and always expected that day.
Finally, the big day came. On that wonderful night, after everyone went to bed, I sneaked out of bed, took my longest, cleanest knee sock and attached it to a nail already on the mantel(壁炉).Obviously, the previous owners of this house were no strangers to this Santa character. Gazing at the sock and imagining the delicately-packed gift in it, I couldn't help giggling(咯咯地笑). For the first time, I found it hard to fall asleep.
And for the first time, I woke up before everyone else in the early morning. Then I headed straight to the fireplace and was even ready for what to say after seeing the gift. However, what happened next was the least thing I wanted to mention. On the nail was the empty and lonely sock. I was hit by the reality of the empty sock and the biggest lie ever told. I tried my best to hold back my tears but failed. Bursting into tears, I quickly took down the sock and stuffed it in the back of a drawer.
Every December since then, the topic of Christmas memories would unavoidably come up, and I would amuse my friends with my poor-little-me story. I had to make it as funny as possible, or else I would cry once again. I didn't know whether any of my audience ever noticed the sparkling tears hidden in my eyes.
How could I know that Santa was just late? Nine years ago, on Christmas Eve, I heard a knock on the door when I was watching TV. Unwillingly, I dragged my feet and opened the door.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
Paragraph 1:
Outside the door stood an old man with a white beard and a red cap, holding a well-packed box.
Paragraph 2:
Through tear-blurred eyes, I recognized the handwriting on the card.

◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章通过举例子的方法说明在听讲座时做笔记是非常重要的,并且介绍了运用关键词概要的方法记下要点和支持的论据,培养做笔记的技巧。
16.G 根据前文讲“在参加讲座时,学生们常常会惊讶于他们的老师居然能说出演讲者的主要观点、论据和技巧……很可能她或他听的时候会用笔和纸”可知,G选项“When note taking is done properly, it is sure to keep track of a speaker's ideas.”(当正确地做笔记时,肯定能够记录下演讲者的观点。)是对上文语意的顺承,符合语境,故选G。

长难句分析
原句 But little did Lewis know that a family friend had already got in touch with the Des Moines Register,asking the newspaper to help set up a meeting with Trashaun to build Jayce's confidence.
分析 本句是主从复合句。little前置,用了部分倒装;know 后接宾语从句,现在分词短语asking the newspaper...作伴随状语。
句意 但是Lewis几乎不知道,他们家的一个朋友已经联系了《得梅因纪事报》,请求该报帮助安排与Trashaun的会面,以建立Jayce的信心。
【高频词汇】 1.admit vt.承认;准许……进入 2.attract v.吸引,引起……的兴趣 3.confidence n.自信,信心
第二节
◎语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了一个名为Elias的黑人的故事。
36.where 考查定语从句。句意:他支持非洲人国民大会,被送到罗宾岛, 在那里他待了4年,卫兵们的毒打和虐待使他吃尽苦头。设空处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词Robben Island, 关系词在定语从句中作地点状语,故填where。
37.cruelty 考查词性转换。句意同上题。and 连接两个并列名词,形容词cruel 的名词形式是cruelty。
38.trying 考查非谓语动词。句意:后来他花费20年试图寻找另一份工作,那是他人生当中非常艰难的一段时间。spend time (in) doing sth.意为 “花费时间做某事”,故填trying。
39.a 考查冠词。句意同上题。a period of time 一段时间, 故填a。
40.tourists 考查名词复数。句意:Elias 现在带着游客们参观他之前的监狱……。游客不止一个,所以用复数 tourists。
41.was fighting/fought 考查时态。句意:……他告诉游客们他在那段日子里如何为了信念而奋斗。in those days 指的是坐牢的日子,跟现在比是过去,所以用过去进行时或者一般过去时,故填was fighting 或者fought。
42.to make 考查非谓语动词。句意:……Elias为了给自己谋份职业尝试了很多次。这里用动词不定式表示目的,故填to make。
43.successfully 考查副词。句意:每次他成功地找到一份工作,秘密警察就会告诉雇主他坐过牢,而他总会失去自己的工作。修饰动词got需要用副词,故填successfully。

45.to 考查介词。此处指现在它是一家博物馆,对游客开放。be open to... 对……开放。
长难句分析

第三部分 写作
第一节
One possible version:
In an age when the use of social media is so popular, it's easy to see that the Internet is good for students.
Undoubtedly, the Internet brings our friends directly to us. Starting a brand new school life in a different place and with a full schedule, we barely have time to get together. However, with the help of the Internet, we don't need to care about time and location; we can contact old friends through the real-time video chat.
Since the beginning of the new term, my best friend and I have been studying in separate schools, so he can't make it to my birthday party. But on my birthday, we had a really good video chat. He sent me his best wishes. I was really touched.
In my view, the Internet, in its own right, brings people convenience, especially when it comes to connection and communication.
第二节
One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
Outside the door stood an old man with a white beard and a red cap, holding a well-packed box. Wearing a radiant smile, the man reached out his hands, passed the box to me and grinned “A Christmas gift for you”. Shocked at the unexpected guest and gift, I was at a loss what to say. The moment he blended into the darkness, I untied the ribbon with heart thumping wildly. Inside the box lay a teddy bear I had longed for with an attached card. Once again, I couldn't contain my tears.
Paragraph 2:
Through tear-blurred eyes, I recognized the handwriting on the card. It was a friend of mine and I later discovered that the man was her father. She was one of the audience of my sad story. The card read: Sorry, I'm late. Merry Christmas. I wiped away tears, held the box tightly and felt a surge of warmth. Christmas memories of that year wouldn't be a bitter joke. Instead, it was a miracle which witnessed a healed heart. So now I believe Santa is real. This Santa doesn't come down our chimneys, but lives inside good and thoughtful people who really listen to friends, and then plan deliberate acts of kindness.

Elephant Transit Home
In both Africa and Asia elephants are being threatened by changes in their natural habitats. People are moving into the elephants' habitats and endangering their survival. In the country of Sri Lanka, there is one place where elephants are not only protected but also respected. It is called the Elephant Transit Home (ETH).
Set up in 1995, the ETH aims to protect and nurture baby elephants that are found injured or living without their mothers in the wild. Every year about 30 baby elephants in Sri Lanka need help. As many as possible are brought to the ETH. There they are given food, shelter, and medical care. Most importantly, they are given the chance to be with other elephants and become part of an elephant herd (象群).
A day at the ETH begins early in the morning when the baby elephants are given their first feeding of milk. During the day, each baby will drink an average of 13 gallons of milk. Older elephants are fed mostly coconut leaves and other native plants. Then the elephants are allowed to walk around, eating the grass and forming a herd. The cost of caring for the baby elephants is high. The ETH spends about $125,000 each year on powdered milk for the baby elephants.
At the ETH, workers try to reduce human connection with the elephants. They also try to increase bonds(联系) between the elephants. It usually takes three years for a baby elephant to be set free into its natural habitat. The elephants are sent back to the wild together with other orphans with whom they have bonded. This program helps them return to the wild as members of a herd that will communicate with each other and take care of each other.
The ETH is considered one of the best animal protection sites in the world. The elephants there are not only cared for, but also treated with respect. Most importantly, they will go back to live in the wild, where they belong.

As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remembering less?If you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own personal memory, your brain?Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.
In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments.She and her research team wanted to know how the Internet is changing memory.In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer.The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information.The second group understood that the computer would not save it.Later, the second group remembered the information better.People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.
In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the computer.The information was in a specific computer folder(文件夹).Surprisingly, people later remembered the folder location(位置)better than the facts.When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information.Rather, they remember how to find it.This is called“transactive memory(交互记忆)”.
According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet.Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memories;that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date.This doesn't mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.
8.The passage begins with two questions to .
A.introduce the main topic
B.show the author's attitude
C.describe how to use the Internet
D.explain how to store information
9.What can we learn about the first experiment?
A.The Sparrow's team typed the information into a computer.
B.The two groups remembered the information equally well.
C.The first group did not try to remember the information.
D.The second group did not understand the information.
10.In transactive memory, people .
A.keep the information in mind
B.change the quantity of information
C.organize information like a computer
D.remember how to find the information
11.What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow's research?
A.We are using memory differently.
B.We are becoming more intelligent.
C.We have poorer memories than before.
D.We need a better way to access information.

Fishy Weather Conditions
Laj amanu,Australia,is a dry little town,sitting right on the edge of the Tanami Desert. Can you imagine how surprised were people when live fish rained down on them from a dark gray cloud? It happens that there are similar cases in England and Honduras.
How do clouds make fish? The simple answer is that they don't.There is a particular weather phenomenon(现象)called a waterspout.A waterspout is just like a tornado, only it forms above oceans, lakes, or rivers.Like a tornado, a waterspout moves in a circle at high speed.When it moves above the water, it tends to carry the fish with it, as well as frogs or other small plants or animals.
Scientists couldn't work it out at first. To make matters stranger still, the fish in Honduras were very alive when they rained down to the ground, but they were all blind.In England and Australia,it rained fish and snakes,and none were blind. It was difficult to puzzle out,but the blind fish gave them a place to start.
Scientists knew that some fish that lived in deep, underground caves with no light sources often lost their eyesight. So when blind fish rained down on Honduras,scientists began to connect some dots.Clearly, these particular fish were pulled from an underground water source by force.
It has rained fish on every continent, and each time, people have tried in various ways to explain this strange phenomenon.Historically, villagers thought the“fish from the heavens”might be an answer to prayers for food. Others suggested that floods overran river banks and oceans,leaving the fish on the city streets.No scientist had actually seen the rain as it occurred,only the fish left on the ground.But in 1990,a National Geographic team happened to be in Honduras when the rain of fish began. They recorded what was happening and made history by finally proving that the fish really fell from the sky.
This huge breakthrough wasn't just a spot of good luck. It changed thousands of years of myths and legends into true stories and provided scientific explanations for how fish came to live in deep caves. It explained ancient cave paintings and shed new light on how species have spread over time.It turned out to be a lot more than just a little fishy weather.
12.According to the passage, a waterspout .
A.can make animals blind
B.is difficult to catch on film
C.can carry items with it
D.is a dangerous sea creature
13.The blind fish made the scientists start to think that .
A.raining fish was a warning of natural disasters
B.animals changed to match their environments
C.the weather system differed from place to place
D.the waterspout theory seemed more possible
14.The underlined sentence in the last paragraph probably suggests that .
A.waterspouts came to be a center of scientific research
B.the scientists were fortunate to have made their discoveries
C.hard work went into determining the cause for the raining fish
D.the scientists relied heavily on unusual events to drive their studies
15.The author writes the passage to .
A.describe the magic phenomenon
B.explain what caused the fishy weather
C.persuade people to protect the environment
D.encourage people to do scientific research

Develop Note-Taking Skills
While attending a lecture, students are often surprised that their teacher can pick out a speaker's main points, evidence, and techniques. Of course, the teacher knows what to listen for and has had plenty of practice. But next time you get an opportunity, watch your teacher during a speech. Chances are she or he will be listening with a pen and paper. 16
Unfortunately, many people don't take notes effectively. Some try to write down everything a speaker says. They view note taking as a race, pitting their handwriting agility(敏捷) against the speaker's rate of speech. 17 But soon the speaker is winning the race. The speaker pulls so far ahead that the note taker can never catch up. Finally, the note taker admits defeat and spends the rest of the speech grumbling in frustration.
18 They arrive armed with pens, notebooks, and the best of intentions. They know they can't write down everything, so they settle comfortably in their seats and wait for the speaker to say something that grabs their attention. Every once in a while the speaker rewards them with a joke, a dramatic story, or a startling fact. Then the note taker seizes the pen, jots down a few words, and leans back dreamily to await the next fascinating tidbit(趣闻). By the end of the lecture the note taker has a set of tidbits—and little or no record of the speaker's important ideas.
As these examples illustrate, they don't know what to listen to, and they don't know how to record what they do listen to. The solution to the first problem is to focus on a speaker's main points and evidence. 19
Although there are a number of systems, most students find the key-word outline best for listening to speeches. As its name suggests, this method briefly notes a speaker's main points and supporting evidence in the rough outline form. By separating main points from sub-points and evidence, the outline format shows the relationships among the speaker's ideas. 20 But with a little effort you will become a better note taker.
A.As the speaker starts to talk, the note taker starts to write.
B.Most inefficient note takers suffer from one or both of two problems.
C.Perfecting this method requires practice.
D.Taking effective notes usually helps you receive higher grades.
E.Some people go to the opposite extreme.
F.But once you know what to listen to, you still need a sound method of note taking.
G.When note taking is done properly, it is sure to keep track of a speaker's ideas.

Why me?Lewis admitted she didn't know what to do at that point. How could she 22 answers for her son's questions when she had never found those answers herself?
A few weeks later, Lewis turned on the TV to a news story about an eighth grader from Washington, Iowa. Trashaun Willis, then 14, had become an Internet 23 after posting videos of his slam dunks (灌篮), and, like Jayce, he was 24 most of his left arm. Lewis called Jayce in. He was completely attracted, watching dunk after dunk.
At the time, it seemed that watching Trashaun would simply be a(n) 25 moment for Jayce. 26 little did Lewis know that a family friend had already got in touch with the Des Moines Register,asking the newspaper to help set up a meeting with Trashaun to build Jayce's 27 .
The boys met at Washington Middle School on a Saturday afternoon a couple of months later,and instantly bonded. The day was not spent wallowing (沉浸) in self-pity—it was full of 28 . They rode bikes around the school's hallways,took photos, played hide-and-seek, and shot baskets. Trashaun 29 gave Jayce a shirt that says “Ten fingers are overrated.”
At one point,Trashaun did get serious with Jayce. He said not to let anyone drag him down and not to let any words 30 his confidence. Since that meeting, Lewis has seen a visible 31 in her son,who is now seven and in second grade. He recently started wrestling and loved it. Lewis pointed to Trashaun's 32 . “Meeting him,” she said, “made Jayce 33 that there are others like him.”
As for Trashaun,his relationship with Jayce made him look forward to 34 more kids, perhaps as a youth coach with a nonprofit organization devoted to coaching kids with limb disabilities.
“Honestly,it means a lot to know that I changed Jayce's 35 ,” said Trashaun. Still, he never dreamed that his videos would have such an effect. “I just thought my friends would see my videos and be like, ‘Oh,he dunked it!'” Obviously, he did more than that!

My family moved from Taiwan to a small town in central Georgia, where my dad got a visa for his family and a job. I had just learned English, and from what little I could gather from my friends, Santa Claus would come down one's chimney and put toys in one's stocking on Christmas Eve! What a great country, I thought. After I looked up “stocking” in my Chinese-English dictionary, I knew what I had to do and always expected that day.
Finally, the big day came. On that wonderful night, after everyone went to bed, I sneaked out of bed, took my longest, cleanest knee sock and attached it to a nail already on the mantel(壁炉).Obviously, the previous owners of this house were no strangers to this Santa character. Gazing at the sock and imagining the delicately-packed gift in it, I couldn't help giggling(咯咯地笑). For the first time, I found it hard to fall asleep.
And for the first time, I woke up before everyone else in the early morning. Then I headed straight to the fireplace and was even ready for what to say after seeing the gift. However, what happened next was the least thing I wanted to mention. On the nail was the empty and lonely sock. I was hit by the reality of the empty sock and the biggest lie ever told. I tried my best to hold back my tears but failed. Bursting into tears, I quickly took down the sock and stuffed it in the back of a drawer.
Every December since then, the topic of Christmas memories would unavoidably come up, and I would amuse my friends with my poor-little-me story. I had to make it as funny as possible, or else I would cry once again. I didn't know whether any of my audience ever noticed the sparkling tears hidden in my eyes.
How could I know that Santa was just late? Nine years ago, on Christmas Eve, I heard a knock on the door when I was watching TV. Unwillingly, I dragged my feet and opened the door.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
Paragraph 1:
Outside the door stood an old man with a white beard and a red cap, holding a well-packed box.
Paragraph 2:
Through tear-blurred eyes, I recognized the handwriting on the card.

第二节
◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章通过举例子的方法说明在听讲座时做笔记是非常重要的,并且介绍了运用关键词概要的方法记下要点和支持的论据,培养做笔记的技巧。
16.G 根据前文讲“在参加讲座时,学生们常常会惊讶于他们的老师居然能说出演讲者的主要观点、论据和技巧……很可能她或他听的时候会用笔和纸”可知,G选项“When note taking is done properly, it is sure to keep track of a speaker's ideas.”(当正确地做笔记时,肯定能够记录下演讲者的观点。)是对上文语意的顺承,符合语境,故选G。
17.A 空前一句讲“他们把记笔记看作是一种竞赛,将自己的书写敏捷性与说话人的语速相比。”空后一句讲“但很快发言者就赢得了比赛。”通过这两句可知,A选项As the speaker starts to talk, the note taker starts to write.(当发言者开始说话时,记笔记的人就开始写。)承接上文,与下文构成转折关系,故选A。
18.E 本段的第三句讲“他们知道自己不能记下所有的东西……”本段的最后一句讲“在讲座结束时,记笔记的人会记录一些趣闻,但很少或根本不会记录演讲者的重要观点。”通过这两句话我们可以知道这一段所讲述的例子与上一段的例子正好是两个极端。E选项“Some people go to the opposite extreme.”(有些人走向了相反的极端。)符合语境,故选E。
19.F 本段前两句讲“正如这些例子所阐述的,他们不知道要听什么,也不知道如何记录他们确实听到的内容。第一个问题的解决方法是关注演讲者的主要观点和论据。”F选项“But once you know what to listen to, you still need a sound method of note taking.”(但是当你知道要听什么,你仍然需要一种正确的记笔记的方法。)承接上文,故选F。
20.C 空后句讲“但稍加努力,你就会成为一个更好的记笔记的人。”此句和前一句是转折关系,C选项“Perfecting this method requires practice.”(完善这个方法需要练习。)符合语境,故选C。
长难句分析
原句 As these examples illustrate, they don't know what to listen to, and they don't know how to record what they do listen to.
分析 本句是主从复合句。As引导定语从句,主句是由and连接的并列复合句,其中前一个分句中含有“what+动词不定式短语”结构作know的宾语;后一个分句中含有“how+动词不定式短语”结构作know的宾语,且后一分句中what引导宾语从句。
句意 正如这些例子所说明的,他们不知道要听什么,也不知道如何记录他们确实听到的内容。

第三部分 写作
第一节
One possible version:
In an age when the use of social media is so popular, it's easy to see that the Internet is good for students.
Undoubtedly, the Internet brings our friends directly to us. Starting a brand new school life in a different place and with a full schedule, we barely have time to get together. However, with the help of the Internet, we don't need to care about time and location; we can contact old friends through the real-time video chat.
Since the beginning of the new term, my best friend and I have been studying in separate schools, so he can't make it to my birthday party. But on my birthday, we had a really good video chat. He sent me his best wishes. I was really touched.
In my view, the Internet, in its own right, brings people convenience, especially when it comes to connection and communication.
第二节
One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
Outside the door stood an old man with a white beard and a red cap, holding a well-packed box. Wearing a radiant smile, the man reached out his hands, passed the box to me and grinned “A Christmas gift for you”. Shocked at the unexpected guest and gift, I was at a loss what to say. The moment he blended into the darkness, I untied the ribbon with heart thumping wildly. Inside the box lay a teddy bear I had longed for with an attached card. Once again, I couldn't contain my tears.
Paragraph 2:
Through tear-blurred eyes, I recognized the handwriting on the card. It was a friend of mine and I later discovered that the man was her father. She was one of the audience of my sad story. The card read: Sorry, I'm late. Merry Christmas. I wiped away tears, held the box tightly and felt a surge of warmth. Christmas memories of that year wouldn't be a bitter joke. Instead, it was a miracle which witnessed a healed heart. So now I believe Santa is real. This Santa doesn't come down our chimneys, but lives inside good and thoughtful people who really listen to friends, and then plan deliberate acts of kindness.
