这是一份高中人教版 (2019)Unit 2 Morals and Virtues学案及答案
Part 2 Listening and Talking,Reading for Writing,Assessing Your Progress
1.主题语境:人与社会 ——人的社会责任
2.语篇类型:寓言故事
3.课文内容分析:文章主要分享了一个有关道德的寓言故事《挡道的石头》,讲述了国王为了试探民众面对问题的态度,将一块大石头放在路中央,并将金币藏在石头下方,然后观察人们的反应。虽然很多人对石头带来的麻烦甚至是个人损失有诸多抱怨,但都不愿意自己把石头搬走。最后一位善良诚实的年轻女孩搬走了石头,获得了国王的金币和赞扬。阅读后学生要思考文中的“石头”象征着什么?搬石头的女孩与其他人有什么不同?作为个人,面对社会问题应承担怎样的责任?这有利于培养学生高尚的社会品德和责任心。

“Listen,”said the fox,“each one owns something good:you have such beauty;the nightingale (夜莺)has her songs;and the owl (猫头鹰)has his eyes.Even if you had a sweet voice,you would still complain about another thing.Why can’t you just be happy about what you have already got?”

The fable is about a peacock who complains about her ugly voice,ignoring her true beauty.But a fox advises that she be content with what she owns.
After reading it,I understand that we teenagers should find and make good use of our advantages,stopping complaining about the shortcomings all the time.Had the peacock realised this,she would not have been so upset,then would have shown her beautiful figure and been proud of herself.
Many people around me make the same mistake,who only focus on what they cannot get.Take my friend Mike as an example.He does very well in all subjects,ranking as Top 10 in most of the exams.But he usually complains that he can’t play basketball well because he is not tall enough.Never will he know how much we admire him!In fact,nobody can develop very well in all aspects even if he/she is a talent.So we should stay positive and value what we have instead of complaining too much.
最近你在《伊索寓言》中读了《狐狸和葡萄》的故事。故事中狐狸因为摘不到葡萄而故意说葡萄是酸的。这个故事告诉我们:在现实生活中,我们有时也会和狐狸一样,在面对错误或问题时,不是勇敢地去解决,而是不断为自己找借口。现在,请你根据故事内容并结合自己的情况或某些社会现象,写一篇英语评论。
注意:
1.写作词数应为80左右;
2.可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。
One possible version:
Recently I read a small story from Aesop’s Fables,whose name is The Fox and The Grapes.
It is very clear that the fox was looking for an excuse for his not being able to pick them.
After reading the fable I realise that when we are wrong,we should not find an excuse to cover up our own problems.Instead we should bravely admit the mistakes and try to correct them.Only in this way might we succeed someday.Otherwise,we may also become someone just like the fox.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
I’d like to share a little story with you about something that happened when I was four.I remember it clearly.Our loving family dog was nearing the end of his life.My father picked him up and put him in a little bed we had made for him.Our dog,my companion,whom we had cared for,bit my father when he attempted to help him.How could he?Why?I couldn’t understand it.I didn’t like him anymore.
I hadn’t thought about that story for a long time but something that happened last week brought it back to me.I went to speak with a friend.When I knocked on the door,I met in an instant an angry look and a few harsh (尖刻的)words.When the door was slammed (砰地关上)in my face,I stood there shocked,and suddenly,I thought of my dog that bit my father 20 years ago or so.What brought that story back was that same feeling of betrayal(背叛;辜负).
Both stories taught me something the next day.You see,when I got up in the morning and was told my dog had died,it became clear to me that he must have been in great pain.For him to have bitten a family member,he could not have been himself.Much the same for the other story when I learnt that my friend’s wife had just left him.
We all have different opinions and feelings.And all of those things can cause you to say and do things that can’t be understood by other people,because they are not in the same situation with you.
If you meet someone either behaving out of character or acting in a way that doesn’t seem to fit the situation,put out your hand and be patient when you think it is least possible for him to do so.You may turn around a story that has a sad ending simply by your actions.
1.What is the influence of the incident mentioned in Paragraph 1?
A.It hurt his father’s feelings deeply.
B.It has puzzled the author ever since.
C.It left a deep impression on the author.
D.It made the author dislike dogs.
2.Why did the author’s friend say harsh words to the author?
A.Because he was ill-tempered.
B.Because he was suffering the pain of losing his wife.
C.Because he was bothered by an unexpected visit.
D.Because they once quarreled and he couldn’t forgive the author.
3.What’s the author’s advice to us?
A.Help those in need.
B.Look before you leap.
C.Respect for others is a kind of virtue.
D.Learn to put yourself in others’shoes.
语篇导读:本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过两次相似的经历,最终明白应该站在他人的角度,给予别人理解和帮助,并设身处地为他人着想。阅读本文,可以帮助学生学会换位思考,更加懂得如何去体谅他人。
答案及剖析:
1.C 推理判断题。考查学生根据文本信息进行推断归纳的能力。根据文章第一段的“I’d like to share a little story...remember it clearly.”可以推测这件事给作者留下了深刻的印象,所以他直到现在都还记得很清楚。故选C。
2.B 推理判断题。考查学生根据文本信息进行推断归纳的能力。根据文章第二段的“When I knocked on the door,I met in an instant an angry look and a few harsh(尖刻的)words.”和第三段的“Much the same for the other story when I learnt that my friend’s wife had just left him.”可推测,作者的朋友对他说尖刻的话是因为他刚刚失去了妻子,正经历着失去妻子的痛苦。故选B。
3.D 推理判断题。考查学生根据文本信息进行推断归纳的能力。根据文章倒数第二段的“We all have different opinions and feelings.And all of those...they are not in the same situation with you.”可推测,作者建议我们设身处地为别人着想。故选D。

13.A 根据前文“but I feel she is my teacher in life”以及后文“Our 14 is a great learning experience for both of us”可知,此处指在交往中,作者从Alice那里学到很多,即Alice教会(taught)作者很多东西。

M:Macy,I’ll teach you how to draw a horse.First,make an oval shape in the middle of the paper.Next,draw a circle on one end—that will become the head.And then,four rectangles.Do you know what those are for?
W:I know!They’re legs!
(Text 2)
W:Can you say something on the matter?After all,you are the only person who knows what really happened.

W:So tell me when did the incident happen?
M:At about ten o’clock in the morning.
(Text 3)
M:Lily,there you are!I just walked up to a complete stranger and gave her a hug,because I thought it was you.It was so awkward.
W:I’ve done that before,too.It’s the worst feeling in the world,isn’t it?
(Text 4)
W:Excuse me,sir.
M:Yes?
W:How many books am I allowed to check out at a time?
M:You can borrow five books at a time.But you can’t check out magazines.

W:Excuse me.You have a sale on Rough-Kid Jeans,but I don’t see my son’s size.Do you have any size 10’s in the back?
M:Sorry,we are sold out of size 10.Customer Service can tell you when we’re getting more size-10 jeans.
W:Customer Service?Where’s that?
M:Just walk toward the front of the store until you see the Electronics Department.Turn left at Electronics and you’ll see the Customer Service desk on your right,just before the entrance.
W:Thanks a lot.
(Text 7)
W:I need to get in the water.
M:The shower’s available,honey...Are you getting ready to go somewhere?
W:I mean,I miss being in the water.In the ocean,in the pool...I miss the feeling.And now it’s almost winter.It will be a long time before I can swim again!
M:Don’t be so disappointed!We can find a solution.Isn’t there a community pool nearby?
W:Yes,it’s a 15-minute walk away.
M:Why don’t you take swim lessons there until the weather’s warm again?
W:But... it’s an outdoor pool,dear.
M:It must be heated,because I’ve seen people practising there when it’s cold out. If you don’t want to be outside,you can join a gym downtown.We can find one that has a pool.
W:Thank you,Mike.That makes me feel so much better!
(Text 8)
M:How are your grades this semester,Gloria?I don’t want to put pressure on you,of course,but I’d love a report.
W:You mean Ms Wilson didn’t tell you?
M:No,I’m afraid I haven’t heard from her for months.I was actually starting to get worried.You are passing,I’m sure.
W:Of course,Dad.And Ms Wilson said that I only need to get a 90% on the final exam to be on the list of the top ten students in the whole school.
M:That’s fantastic!I would love to celebrate this.
W:Not so fast.I still have to pass the final,you know.Even though I only need a 90%,I don’t want to leave anything to chance.And I want to learn everything I can.
M:I’m so proud of you.But if you’re too focused on your studies,you might find it hard to make friends at college in a couple of years.Just take it easy once in a while.
(Text 9)
M:Why do you wear a mask over your mouth all the time?
W:Don’t you smell the smoke in the air today?
M:Yes,I do... Isn’t that probably from someone’s fireplace?
W:Jared,the smell is all over this town.Can’t you see it in the air,too?
M:I thought it was just fog.
W:Wrong again!
M:What,is there a forest fire burning nearby?
W:No...it’s pretty far away.But it’s large,and the smoke from it is covering the whole town.You should stay inside as much as you can.Today,the air quality is at the “dangerous”level.
M:Oh,but I was just going to start my run.Do you have an extra mask?
W:I do,but you shouldn’t run today,in my opinion.Running makes you breathe harder and faster,so you’ll be damaging your lungs more.
M:All right... I’ll wait until the air is less dangerous,then.Back to my original question,though...why are you always wearing a mask,Vicki?
W:It’s not all of the time.But during certain seasons—particularly summer and autumn—pollution gets trapped in this huge valley.So I’m more aware of it.
(Text 10)
M:Welcome to this weekend’s course at Helvellyn Hall.I’m James and I’ll be coaching those of you who have chosen the waterskiing lessons.
First of all,I just give you some basic information.All meals will be taken in the dining room.We do not require you to wash up after your meals,or clean the tables,but we would be grateful if you could return all dishes to the kitchen after you have finished eating.
You have already got the programme for the weekend.However,I’m afraid there is a little problem with tomorrow morning’s sailing as the instructor is not available on Saturday this week.I’m sorry about this but those of you who wanted to try your hand at sailing are able to do so on Sunday morning instead.Now,tomorrow morning you could join the field walking group or the one doing horse riding.Perhaps I could ask all of you to sign again for which of these activities you’d like to do tomorrow morning.There is one other change but I’m sure it is one that should please you all.Tomorrow evening as you know we have a special dinner for you followed by some Scottish country dancing.The music,however,is not going to be provided by a disco as advertised but by the well-known Scottish folk group called the Mountain Men.We are sure you will all enjoy their music very much.
I think that is all the business that I wanted to raise with you now.Has anyone got any questions that they’d like to ask?

My sister Alice and I have been trying to get people to stop dropping cigarette (香烟) butts (烟头) for seven years.One day,we were walking in our hometown and saw hundreds of cigarette butts on the ground.They made the town look so ugly that we decided to start a group to make people stop dropping butts.We called it “No Butts about It”.
At first,we drew pictures with “The Earth is not your ashtray (烟灰缸)” written on them.We put the pictures around our hometown—in parks,by beaches,and along roads.We wanted to make people understand that dropping butts hurts the environment.Most smokers don’t think that dropping butts hurts the Earth.But it does,and all rubbish does!
Later,we wrote to companies and asked them for money to help us.We used the money to buy ashtrays to give to smokers.We wanted smokers to carry the ashtrays with them so they didn’t have to drop butts.
At the moment,we are trying to get cigarette companies to put an ashtray in each pack of cigarettes.Some companies want to do it.Many people have started to join our group since it began.Today there are 45 other “No Butts about It”groups in America.
Now there are even groups in England,Australia,and India!Many newspapers have written about my sister and me over the last seven years.And we have won many prizes for what we do.But we are not interested in prizes.We just want to make the Earth a better and cleaner place for animals,plants and people.

Running on the beach can certainly be a good thing.It’s completely different from running on the pavement,a track or trails with soft surfaces.
For starters,sand can be a challenge because it has an uneven (不平的) surface and constantly moves under your feet.As you push off,you’re going to lose some of your push as the sand moves.So,you’re not going to be able to push yourself forward as you would on a track or pavement!But this unevenness has an upside:It gives your body an extra workout,forcing you to exercise muscles that don’t get as much use during runs on firm surfaces.
You also might feel painful afterward because beaches tend to slope (倾斜) downward,toward the water.If you’re going for a long run on the beach,you might notice that one side of your body—including your ankle,leg or knee—might feel more painful because you’re putting more pressure on it due to the slope.
Some beach runners tend to run barefoot.However,if you’re not used to barefoot running,start slowly and run short distances at first.That’s because running barefoot uses different muscles than running with shoes does,and it’s important to strengthen these muscles and adapt your feet.
Despite these challenges,running on sand can be a smart choice for athletes because running on it can decrease the bad influence on your body during high-intensity workouts.This could potentially lead to less muscle damage and less pain.Women had less myoglobin (肌红蛋白)—a protein that can be a sign of muscle pain—in their blood after running on the sand than they did after running on grass.This suggests running on softer ground surfaces,such as sand,may reduce muscle damage.
28.What makes running on sand difficult for starters?
A.The smooth surface.
B.The moving surface.
C.The sloping surface.
D.The hard surface.
29.Which of the following best explains “upside”underlined in Paragraph 2?
A.Advantage. B.Reason.
C.Surprise. D.Challenge.
30.What should you avoid when trying running barefoot?
A.Starting slowly.
B.Adapting your feet.
C.Developing some muscles.
D.Running long distances.
31.What is the benefit of running on sand to women?
A.Having no muscle damage.
B.Becoming much healthier.
C.Feeling less painful.
D.Having a good feeling.
语篇导读:本文是一篇说明文。在海滩上跑步肯定是一件好事。海滩的路面是柔软的,这和在人行道上跑步完全不同。文章主要说明了一些在沙滩上跑步需要注意的事项。阅读本文,有利于培养学生用正确方法锻炼身体的意识。
答案及剖析:
28.B 细节理解题。考查学生识别和理解文本中具体信息的能力。根据第二段第一句可知,沙子移动的表面使得初学者刚开始在沙滩上跑步很困难。故选B。
29.A 词义猜测题。考查学生在具体语境中推测词汇意义的能力。根据下文“It gives your body an extra workout,forcing...during runs on firm surfaces.”可知,是在描述这种不平整的一个好处,可推测画线单词意思为“好处”。故选A。
30.D 细节理解题。考查学生识别和理解文本中具体信息的能力。根据第四段第二句中的“However,if you’re not used to barefoot...short distances at first.”可知,要避免赤脚跑长距离。故选D。

D
I have a special place in my heart for libraries.I have for as long as I can remember.I was always an enthusiastic reader,sometimes reading up to three books a day as a child.Stories were like air to me and while other kids played ball or went to parties,I lived out adventures through the books I checked out from the library.
My first job was working at the Ukiah Library when I was 16 years old.It was a dream job and I did everything from shelving books to reading to the children for story time.
As I grew older and became a mother,the library took on a new place and an added meaning in my life.I had several children and books were our main source (来源) of entertainment.It was a big deal for us to load up and go to the local libraries,where my kids could pick out books to read or books they wanted me to read to them.
I always read,using different voices,as though I were acting out the stories with my voice and they loved it!It was a special time to bond with my children and it filled them with the wonderment of books.
Now,I see my children taking their children to the library and I love it that the excitement of going to the library lives on from generation to generation.
As a novelist,I’ve found a new relationship with libraries.I encourage readers to go to their local libraries when they can’t afford to purchase a book.I see libraries as a safe haven (避风港) for readers and writers,a bridge that helps put together a reader with a book.Libraries,in their own ways,help fight book piracy (盗版行为) and I think all writers should support libraries in a significant way when they can.Encourage readers to use the library.Share library announcements on your social media.Frequent them and talk about them when you can.
32.Which word best describes the author’s relationship with books as a child?
A.Cooperative. B.Uneasy.
C.Inseparable. D.Casual.
33.What does the underlined phrase “an added meaning”in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Pleasure from working in the library.
B.Joy of reading passed on in the family.
C.Wonderment from acting out the stories.
D.A closer bond developed with the readers.
34.What does the author call on other writers to do?
A.Sponsor book fairs.
B.Write for social media.
C.Support libraries.
D.Purchase her novels.
35.Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Reading:A Source of Knowledge
B.My Idea about Writing
C.Library:A Haven for the Young
D.My Love of the Library
语篇导读:本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述作者对图书馆的热爱。阅读本文,有利于学生了解图书馆存在的意义。
答案及剖析:
32.C 推理判断题。考查学生根据文本信息进行推断归纳的能力。根据第一段中的“I was always an enthusiastic...through the books...”可推知,小时候,作者与书形影不离。故选C。
33.B 词义猜测题。考查学生在具体语境中推测词汇意义的能力。根据画线短语前的“As I grew older...the library took on a new place”及下文的“I had several children...to read to them.”可知,随着作者年龄的增长,她成为母亲,图书馆在她心里有了新的“地位”,书成了她和孩子们娱乐的主要来源。对他们来说,去图书馆读书是一件令人激动的事情。故an added meaning应是指“在作者家庭中传递的读书的乐趣”。故选B。
34.C 细节理解题。考查学生识别和理解文本中具体信息的能力。根据最后一段中的“I think all writers should support libraries in a significant way when they can.”可知,作者呼吁其他作者支持图书馆。故选C。
35.D 标题归纳题。考查学生理解文本主旨要义以及归纳推断的能力。阅读全文可知,“library”是本文的线索,作者描述了她从孩童到为人母,以及作为小说家对图书馆的热爱。故选D。

Your everyday behaviours may be holding you back.However,perhaps you don’t even know it.36. ,as well as some expert advice on what to do instead.
37. .It can also decrease your brain’s ability to function,thus resulting in poor performance at work and longer reaction time behind the wheel.Experts recommend practising a relaxing bedtime routine like taking a bath,cutting down on caffeine and alcohol.Another trick is to stick to a consistent sleep schedule.
Studies have shown that sitting for extended periods can have significant negative impacts on physical and mental health.You don’t have to run a marathon to get active,though.Work small exercises into your day,like standing during TV advertisements or parking your car far away from an entrance.38. .
Is it uneasy to lock your cellphone away for a solid 60 minutes?Social media isn’t helping,either.Experts recommend deleting social media apps or hiding them.39. ,and making a point of doing something to ground you in the present moment each day.
In today’s competitive society,it’s human nature to take on as many tasks as possible.But continuous responsibility and rushing from one job to the next is a bad habit that can lead to eventual burnout.40. ,especially those that you have no time to accept.
A.The small can make a huge difference
B.Bad sleep can lead to a variety of harms
C.Good education background isn’t helping
D.This means practising the art of saying “yes”
E.Experts suggest politely turning down invitations
F.Be aware of some habits with a negative impact on your health

语篇导读:本文是一篇说明文,介绍了四件伤害你健康的事情,并给出了专家的建议。阅读本文,有利于培养学生的健康意识。
答案及剖析:
36.F 考查学生理解上下文语义,建立段落内语义连贯的能力。根据下文“as well as some expert advice on what to do instead(以及一些专家建议)”可知此处为并列关系。本文主要介绍了一些对健康有负面影响的习惯和专家给出的建议。故选F。

trick is to stick to a consistent sleep schedule.(专家建议,养成放松的睡前习惯,比如洗澡、减少咖啡因和酒精的摄入。另一个诀窍是坚持一贯的睡眠计划。)”可知,专家的建议都是关于睡眠的。即此段主要讲睡眠不好会导致各种伤害。故选B。
38.A 考查学生理解上下文语义,建立段落内语义连贯的能力。根据前文可知,长时间坐着会对身心健康产生显著的负面影响。不过,不必通过像马拉松一样高强度锻炼来改善,每天做一些小运动即可。A选项中的“The small”指的是“small exercises”。故选A。
39.G 考查学生理解上下文语义,建立段落内语义连贯的能力。段首句“Is it uneasy to lock your cell phone away for a solid 60 minutes?(把你的手机锁在外面整整60分钟是不是很不舒服?)”与G选项专家的建议:在卧室外给手机充电相呼应。故选G。
40.E 考查学生理解上下文语义,建立段落内语义连贯的能力。根据下文“especially those that you have no time to accept(特别是那些你没有时间接受的邀请)”可知这是递进关系。对于没有时间接受的邀请,专家的建议当然是拒绝。故选E。

语篇导读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者和朋友散步时发现了一部手机,并试图找手机主人的故事。阅读本文,有利于培养学生拾金不昧的品质以及助人为乐的意识。
答案及剖析:
56.when 考查固定句型。此处是句型be doing...when...,意为“正在做……这时……”。
57.picked 考查时态。根据上文的“found”和下文的“worked”可知,此处需要用一般过去时,故用picked。
58.Unluckily 考查副词。修饰整个句子,用副词。
59.the 考查冠词。house后有定语从句修饰,因此用定冠词the表示特指。
60.hadn’t lost 考查时态。根据上下文,应是“他们没有丢手机”;上一句是一般过去时,“没有丢手机”发生在作者去问他们之前,是过去的过去,应用过去完成时;lose是不规则变化动词,过去分词为lost。
61.names 考查名词单复数。根据下文“those names”可知,是一些联系人的名字,name应用复数形式。
62.to say 考查非谓语动词。have something/nothing to do结构用动词不定式作定语。
63.immediately 考查副词。修饰谓语动词tried,用副词。
64.Helping/To help 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,所填词在句中作主语;此处help是动词,用动名词或动词不定式作句子主语。
65.endless 考查形容词。用形容词修饰名词。

Last weekend,I went to Mark’s new house nearby a forest for a little get-together.After lunch when I was chatting with him and his wife Cody,he asked me,“Hey,Tom,have you ever been to a secret spot?”Before I could even finish saying no,Cody and Mark were already at the door with their jackets on.And the next moment we were heading out into the forest with a camera,a fishing net and a plastic
bucket (桶).
We walked through the forest along a path by a small river.Breathing the fresh air,we three talked and laughed all the way.
“Hey!What are you guys doing?”someone suddenly shouted from behind.Mark’s and Cody’s eyes immediately widened,and without a word they started running.I had no choice but to follow them,getting my shoes wet and dirty with mud.We probably ran for about 10 minutes before Mark and Cody slowed down.I stopped to catch my breath and asked,“Who was that?”
Mark replied,“The most annoying neighbour ever.If he caught up with us,
there’s no telling what could happen.He is always making fun of us.I dislike him.”We kept walking on for a few more minutes.Then a beautiful lake appeared before our eyes.“Wow!Amazing!”I shouted and could hardly hold back my excitement.The lake was large and the water was deep and blue,looking so peaceful with tall trees around it.

One possible version:
Looking around,we saw a rubber boat floating by the shore.“How about going boating?”Mark asked.“Good idea.”So we three excitedly jumped onto the boat and rowed far out.I was thrilled to find so many fishes in the lake.Before I could say a word,Mark had cast the fishing net into the water.“Let’s wait and see,”Mark smiled mysteriously.“Look this way.Let me take a photo of you two,”Cody said,taking out the camera.Hearing that,I quickly approached Mark.But all of a sudden I lost my balance and fell into the water.
“Help!Help!Help!”I was so frightened and cried for help.However,none of us could swim.Mark and Cody tried to pull me up from the water but in vain.Struggling in the water,I was almost exhausted when I felt myself lifted by someone.It was
Mark’s neighbour,who followed us there and saw what had happened.Without hesitation,he jumped into the water and I was saved.
Part 2 Listening and Talking,Reading for Writing,Assessing Your Progress
1.主题语境:人与社会 ——人的社会责任
2.语篇类型:寓言故事
3.课文内容分析:文章主要分享了一个有关道德的寓言故事《挡道的石头》,讲述了国王为了试探民众面对问题的态度,将一块大石头放在路中央,并将金币藏在石头下方,然后观察人们的反应。虽然很多人对石头带来的麻烦甚至是个人损失有诸多抱怨,但都不愿意自己把石头搬走。最后一位善良诚实的年轻女孩搬走了石头,获得了国王的金币和赞扬。阅读后学生要思考文中的“石头”象征着什么?搬石头的女孩与其他人有什么不同?作为个人,面对社会问题应承担怎样的责任?这有利于培养学生高尚的社会品德和责任心。

“It is true that you cannot sing,”said the fox,“but look how beautiful you are!”

“Listen,”said the fox,“each one owns something good:you have such beauty;the nightingale (夜莺)has her songs;and the owl (猫头鹰)has his eyes.Even if you had a sweet voice,you would still complain about another thing.Why can’t you just be happy about what you have already got?”

The fable is about a peacock who complains about her ugly voice,ignoring her true beauty.But a fox advises that she be content with what she owns.
After reading it,I understand that we teenagers should find and make good use of our advantages,stopping complaining about the shortcomings all the time.Had the peacock realised this,she would not have been so upset,then would have shown her beautiful figure and been proud of herself.
Many people around me make the same mistake,who only focus on what they cannot get.Take my friend Mike as an example.He does very well in all subjects,ranking as Top 10 in most of the exams.But he usually complains that he can’t play basketball well because he is not tall enough.Never will he know how much we admire him!In fact,nobody can develop very well in all aspects even if he/she is a talent.So we should stay positive and value what we have instead of complaining too much.

One possible version:
Recently I read a small story from Aesop’s Fables,whose name is The Fox and The Grapes.
It is very clear that the fox was looking for an excuse for his not being able to pick them.
After reading the fable I realise that when we are wrong,we should not find an excuse to cover up our own problems.Instead we should bravely admit the mistakes and try to correct them.Only in this way might we succeed someday.Otherwise,we may also become someone just like the fox.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
I’d like to share a little story with you about something that happened when I was four.I remember it clearly.Our loving family dog was nearing the end of his life.My father picked him up and put him in a little bed we had made for him.Our dog,my companion,whom we had cared for,bit my father when he attempted to help him.How could he?Why?I couldn’t understand it.I didn’t like him anymore.
I hadn’t thought about that story for a long time but something that happened last week brought it back to me.I went to speak with a friend.When I knocked on the door,I met in an instant an angry look and a few harsh (尖刻的)words.When the door was slammed (砰地关上)in my face,I stood there shocked,and suddenly,I thought of my dog that bit my father 20 years ago or so.What brought that story back was that same feeling of betrayal(背叛;辜负).
Both stories taught me something the next day.You see,when I got up in the morning and was told my dog had died,it became clear to me that he must have been in great pain.For him to have bitten a family member,he could not have been himself.Much the same for the other story when I learnt that my friend’s wife had just left him.
We all have different opinions and feelings.And all of those things can cause you to say and do things that can’t be understood by other people,because they are not in the same situation with you.
If you meet someone either behaving out of character or acting in a way that doesn’t seem to fit the situation,put out your hand and be patient when you think it is least possible for him to do so.You may turn around a story that has a sad ending simply by your actions.
1.What is the influence of the incident mentioned in Paragraph 1?
A.It hurt his father’s feelings deeply.
B.It has puzzled the author ever since.
C.It left a deep impression on the author.
D.It made the author dislike dogs.
2.Why did the author’s friend say harsh words to the author?
A.Because he was ill-tempered.
B.Because he was suffering the pain of losing his wife.
C.Because he was bothered by an unexpected visit.
D.Because they once quarreled and he couldn’t forgive the author.
3.What’s the author’s advice to us?
A.Help those in need.
B.Look before you leap.
C.Respect for others is a kind of virtue.
D.Learn to put yourself in others’shoes.
语篇导读:本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过两次相似的经历,最终明白应该站在他人的角度,给予别人理解和帮助,并设身处地为他人着想。阅读本文,可以帮助学生学会换位思考,更加懂得如何去体谅他人。
答案及剖析:
1.C 推理判断题。考查学生根据文本信息进行推断归纳的能力。根据文章第一段的“I’d like to share a little story...remember it clearly.”可以推测这件事给作者留下了深刻的印象,所以他直到现在都还记得很清楚。故选C。
2.B 推理判断题。考查学生根据文本信息进行推断归纳的能力。根据文章第二段的“When I knocked on the door,I met in an instant an angry look and a few harsh(尖刻的)words.”和第三段的“Much the same for the other story when I learnt that my friend’s wife had just left him.”可推测,作者的朋友对他说尖刻的话是因为他刚刚失去了妻子,正经历着失去妻子的痛苦。故选B。
3.D 推理判断题。考查学生根据文本信息进行推断归纳的能力。根据文章倒数第二段的“We all have different opinions and feelings.And all of those...they are not in the same situation with you.”可推测,作者建议我们设身处地为别人着想。故选D。

文章脉络
答案及剖析:
1.B 根据后文“with a bright smile and an enthusiastic attitude”可知,Alice非常乐观,所以是快乐的(cheerful)。
2.C 根据前文“For my 2-hour class every Saturday morning,Alice has to take a 3-hour round-trip on the road.”以及本句中“But she is never”转折语义可知,Alice从不迟到(late)。
3.A 根据上一句“Alice is very passionate about learning English.”以及前文的分析可知,Alice积极乐观,学习努力认真。根据后文“as a 60-year-old”可知,她不让老师把她当成(treat)60岁的老人。treat...as意为“把……当作……对待”。
4.D 根据前文“Alice is very passionate about learning English.”可知,她对学习有强烈的欲望,故eagerly(热切地;渴望地)符合语境。
5.C 根据后文“to make sure what I teach makes sense to her”可知,作者有强烈的责任感(responsibility)。
6.B 根据后文“but she turns out to be a very fast learner”转折的语义可知,Alice刚来时英语水平很一般(basic)。
7.D 根据常识及后文“on a daily basis”可知,用则发达,废则萎缩,因为在日常生活中,她总是运用英语,所以她学得很快。in use意为“在使用中”,符合语境。
8.B 根据后文宾语“her homework”可知,作为老师的作者检查(check)作业。
9.C 根据前文“Her homework”以及后文“for the class”可知,作为老师的作者给学生布置安排(arranged)作业。
10.A 根据前文“Her homework is usually not what I 9 for the class”可知,Alice的作业是自愿(volunteers)做的。

第一节
(Text 1)
M:Macy,I’ll teach you how to draw a horse.First,make an oval shape in the middle of the paper.Next,draw a circle on one end—that will become the head.And then,four rectangles.Do you know what those are for?
W:I know!They’re legs!
(Text 2)
W:Can you say something on the matter?After all,you are the only person who knows what really happened.
M:That’s quite true.I think I can give something valuable.
W:So tell me when did the incident happen?
M:At about ten o’clock in the morning.
(Text 3)
M:Lily,there you are!I just walked up to a complete stranger and gave her a hug,because I thought it was you.It was so awkward.
W:I’ve done that before,too.It’s the worst feeling in the world,isn’t it?
(Text 4)
W:Excuse me,sir.
M:Yes?
W:How many books am I allowed to check out at a time?
M:You can borrow five books at a time.But you can’t check out magazines.
(Text 5)
M:Let’s go to the museum.The art museum is full of beautiful artworks.
W:You know,Paul,I am afraid of one thing.
M:What’s that?Running out of money?
W:No,the museum is free.We’ll run out of time!Half a day is not enough.
第二节
(Text 6)
W:Excuse me.You have a sale on Rough-Kid Jeans,but I don’t see my son’s size.Do you have any size 10’s in the back?
M:Sorry,we are sold out of size 10.Customer Service can tell you when we’re getting more size-10 jeans.
W:Customer Service?Where’s that?
M:Just walk toward the front of the store until you see the Electronics Department.Turn left at Electronics and you’ll see the Customer Service desk on your right,just before the entrance.
W:Thanks a lot.
(Text 7)
W:I need to get in the water.
M:The shower’s available,honey...Are you getting ready to go somewhere?
W:I mean,I miss being in the water.In the ocean,in the pool...I miss the feeling.And now it’s almost winter.It will be a long time before I can swim again!
M:Don’t be so disappointed!We can find a solution.Isn’t there a community pool nearby?
W:Yes,it’s a 15-minute walk away.
M:Why don’t you take swim lessons there until the weather’s warm again?
W:But... it’s an outdoor pool,dear.
M:It must be heated,because I’ve seen people practising there when it’s cold out. If you don’t want to be outside,you can join a gym downtown.We can find one that has a pool.
W:Thank you,Mike.That makes me feel so much better!
(Text 8)
M:How are your grades this semester,Gloria?I don’t want to put pressure on you,of course,but I’d love a report.
W:You mean Ms Wilson didn’t tell you?
M:No,I’m afraid I haven’t heard from her for months.I was actually starting to get worried.You are passing,I’m sure.
W:Of course,Dad.And Ms Wilson said that I only need to get a 90% on the final exam to be on the list of the top ten students in the whole school.
M:That’s fantastic!I would love to celebrate this.
W:Not so fast.I still have to pass the final,you know.Even though I only need a 90%,I don’t want to leave anything to chance.And I want to learn everything I can.
M:I’m so proud of you.But if you’re too focused on your studies,you might find it hard to make friends at college in a couple of years.Just take it easy once in a while.
(Text 9)
M:Why do you wear a mask over your mouth all the time?
W:Don’t you smell the smoke in the air today?
M:Yes,I do... Isn’t that probably from someone’s fireplace?
W:Jared,the smell is all over this town.Can’t you see it in the air,too?
M:I thought it was just fog.
W:Wrong again!
M:What,is there a forest fire burning nearby?
W:No...it’s pretty far away.But it’s large,and the smoke from it is covering the whole town.You should stay inside as much as you can.Today,the air quality is at the “dangerous”level.
M:Oh,but I was just going to start my run.Do you have an extra mask?
W:I do,but you shouldn’t run today,in my opinion.Running makes you breathe harder and faster,so you’ll be damaging your lungs more.
M:All right... I’ll wait until the air is less dangerous,then.Back to my original question,though...why are you always wearing a mask,Vicki?
W:It’s not all of the time.But during certain seasons—particularly summer and autumn—pollution gets trapped in this huge valley.So I’m more aware of it.
(Text 10)
M:Welcome to this weekend’s course at Helvellyn Hall.I’m James and I’ll be coaching those of you who have chosen the waterskiing lessons.
First of all,I just give you some basic information.All meals will be taken in the dining room.We do not require you to wash up after your meals,or clean the tables,but we would be grateful if you could return all dishes to the kitchen after you have finished eating.
You have already got the programme for the weekend.However,I’m afraid there is a little problem with tomorrow morning’s sailing as the instructor is not available on Saturday this week.I’m sorry about this but those of you who wanted to try your hand at sailing are able to do so on Sunday morning instead.Now,tomorrow morning you could join the field walking group or the one doing horse riding.Perhaps I could ask all of you to sign again for which of these activities you’d like to do tomorrow morning.There is one other change but I’m sure it is one that should please you all.Tomorrow evening as you know we have a special dinner for you followed by some Scottish country dancing.The music,however,is not going to be provided by a disco as advertised but by the well-known Scottish folk group called the Mountain Men.We are sure you will all enjoy their music very much.
I think that is all the business that I wanted to raise with you now.Has anyone got any questions that they’d like to ask?

My sister Alice and I have been trying to get people to stop dropping cigarette (香烟) butts (烟头) for seven years.One day,we were walking in our hometown and saw hundreds of cigarette butts on the ground.They made the town look so ugly that we decided to start a group to make people stop dropping butts.We called it “No Butts about It”.
At first,we drew pictures with “The Earth is not your ashtray (烟灰缸)” written on them.We put the pictures around our hometown—in parks,by beaches,and along roads.We wanted to make people understand that dropping butts hurts the environment.Most smokers don’t think that dropping butts hurts the Earth.But it does,and all rubbish does!
Later,we wrote to companies and asked them for money to help us.We used the money to buy ashtrays to give to smokers.We wanted smokers to carry the ashtrays with them so they didn’t have to drop butts.
At the moment,we are trying to get cigarette companies to put an ashtray in each pack of cigarettes.Some companies want to do it.Many people have started to join our group since it began.Today there are 45 other “No Butts about It”groups in America.
Now there are even groups in England,Australia,and India!Many newspapers have written about my sister and me over the last seven years.And we have won many prizes for what we do.But we are not interested in prizes.We just want to make the Earth a better and cleaner place for animals,plants and people.
One day,it will be.

C
Running on the beach can certainly be a good thing.It’s completely different from running on the pavement,a track or trails with soft surfaces.
For starters,sand can be a challenge because it has an uneven (不平的) surface and constantly moves under your feet.As you push off,you’re going to lose some of your push as the sand moves.So,you’re not going to be able to push yourself forward as you would on a track or pavement!But this unevenness has an upside:It gives your body an extra workout,forcing you to exercise muscles that don’t get as much use during runs on firm surfaces.
You also might feel painful afterward because beaches tend to slope (倾斜) downward,toward the water.If you’re going for a long run on the beach,you might notice that one side of your body—including your ankle,leg or knee—might feel more painful because you’re putting more pressure on it due to the slope.
Some beach runners tend to run barefoot.However,if you’re not used to barefoot running,start slowly and run short distances at first.That’s because running barefoot uses different muscles than running with shoes does,and it’s important to strengthen these muscles and adapt your feet.
Despite these challenges,running on sand can be a smart choice for athletes because running on it can decrease the bad influence on your body during high-intensity workouts.This could potentially lead to less muscle damage and less pain.Women had less myoglobin (肌红蛋白)—a protein that can be a sign of muscle pain—in their blood after running on the sand than they did after running on grass.This suggests running on softer ground surfaces,such as sand,may reduce muscle damage.
28.What makes running on sand difficult for starters?
A.The smooth surface.
B.The moving surface.
C.The sloping surface.
D.The hard surface.
29.Which of the following best explains “upside”underlined in Paragraph 2?
A.Advantage. B.Reason.
C.Surprise. D.Challenge.
30.What should you avoid when trying running barefoot?
A.Starting slowly.
B.Adapting your feet.
C.Developing some muscles.
D.Running long distances.
31.What is the benefit of running on sand to women?
A.Having no muscle damage.
B.Becoming much healthier.
C.Feeling less painful.
D.Having a good feeling.
语篇导读:本文是一篇说明文。在海滩上跑步肯定是一件好事。海滩的路面是柔软的,这和在人行道上跑步完全不同。文章主要说明了一些在沙滩上跑步需要注意的事项。阅读本文,有利于培养学生用正确方法锻炼身体的意识。
答案及剖析:
28.B 细节理解题。考查学生识别和理解文本中具体信息的能力。根据第二段第一句可知,沙子移动的表面使得初学者刚开始在沙滩上跑步很困难。故选B。
29.A 词义猜测题。考查学生在具体语境中推测词汇意义的能力。根据下文“It gives your body an extra workout,forcing...during runs on firm surfaces.”可知,是在描述这种不平整的一个好处,可推测画线单词意思为“好处”。故选A。
30.D 细节理解题。考查学生识别和理解文本中具体信息的能力。根据第四段第二句中的“However,if you’re not used to barefoot...short distances at first.”可知,要避免赤脚跑长距离。故选D。
31.C 细节理解题。考查学生识别和理解文本中具体信息的能力。根据最后一段中的“Women had less myoglobin...such as sand,may reduce muscle damage.”可知,对女性来说,在沙滩上跑步的好处是不那么痛苦。故选C。
D
I have a special place in my heart for libraries.I have for as long as I can remember.I was always an enthusiastic reader,sometimes reading up to three books a day as a child.Stories were like air to me and while other kids played ball or went to parties,I lived out adventures through the books I checked out from the library.
My first job was working at the Ukiah Library when I was 16 years old.It was a dream job and I did everything from shelving books to reading to the children for story time.
As I grew older and became a mother,the library took on a new place and an added meaning in my life.I had several children and books were our main source (来源) of entertainment.It was a big deal for us to load up and go to the local libraries,where my kids could pick out books to read or books they wanted me to read to them.
I always read,using different voices,as though I were acting out the stories with my voice and they loved it!It was a special time to bond with my children and it filled them with the wonderment of books.
Now,I see my children taking their children to the library and I love it that the excitement of going to the library lives on from generation to generation.
As a novelist,I’ve found a new relationship with libraries.I encourage readers to go to their local libraries when they can’t afford to purchase a book.I see libraries as a safe haven (避风港) for readers and writers,a bridge that helps put together a reader with a book.Libraries,in their own ways,help fight book piracy (盗版行为) and I think all writers should support libraries in a significant way when they can.Encourage readers to use the library.Share library announcements on your social media.Frequent them and talk about them when you can.
32.Which word best describes the author’s relationship with books as a child?
A.Cooperative. B.Uneasy.
C.Inseparable. D.Casual.
33.What does the underlined phrase “an added meaning”in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Pleasure from working in the library.
B.Joy of reading passed on in the family.
C.Wonderment from acting out the stories.
D.A closer bond developed with the readers.
34.What does the author call on other writers to do?
A.Sponsor book fairs.
B.Write for social media.
C.Support libraries.
D.Purchase her novels.
35.Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Reading:A Source of Knowledge
B.My Idea about Writing
C.Library:A Haven for the Young
D.My Love of the Library
语篇导读:本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述作者对图书馆的热爱。阅读本文,有利于学生了解图书馆存在的意义。
答案及剖析:
32.C 推理判断题。考查学生根据文本信息进行推断归纳的能力。根据第一段中的“I was always an enthusiastic...through the books...”可推知,小时候,作者与书形影不离。故选C。
33.B 词义猜测题。考查学生在具体语境中推测词汇意义的能力。根据画线短语前的“As I grew older...the library took on a new place”及下文的“I had several children...to read to them.”可知,随着作者年龄的增长,她成为母亲,图书馆在她心里有了新的“地位”,书成了她和孩子们娱乐的主要来源。对他们来说,去图书馆读书是一件令人激动的事情。故an added meaning应是指“在作者家庭中传递的读书的乐趣”。故选B。
34.C 细节理解题。考查学生识别和理解文本中具体信息的能力。根据最后一段中的“I think all writers should support libraries in a significant way when they can.”可知,作者呼吁其他作者支持图书馆。故选C。
35.D 标题归纳题。考查学生理解文本主旨要义以及归纳推断的能力。阅读全文可知,“library”是本文的线索,作者描述了她从孩童到为人母,以及作为小说家对图书馆的热爱。故选D。

Four Everyday Things Hurting Your Health
Your everyday behaviours may be holding you back.However,perhaps you don’t even know it.36. ,as well as some expert advice on what to do instead.
37. .It can also decrease your brain’s ability to function,thus resulting in poor performance at work and longer reaction time behind the wheel.Experts recommend practising a relaxing bedtime routine like taking a bath,cutting down on caffeine and alcohol.Another trick is to stick to a consistent sleep schedule.
Studies have shown that sitting for extended periods can have significant negative impacts on physical and mental health.You don’t have to run a marathon to get active,though.Work small exercises into your day,like standing during TV advertisements or parking your car far away from an entrance.38. .
Is it uneasy to lock your cellphone away for a solid 60 minutes?Social media isn’t helping,either.Experts recommend deleting social media apps or hiding them.39. ,and making a point of doing something to ground you in the present moment each day.
In today’s competitive society,it’s human nature to take on as many tasks as possible.But continuous responsibility and rushing from one job to the next is a bad habit that can lead to eventual burnout.40. ,especially those that you have no time to accept.
A.The small can make a huge difference
B.Bad sleep can lead to a variety of harms
C.Good education background isn’t helping
D.This means practising the art of saying “yes”
E.Experts suggest politely turning down invitations
F.Be aware of some habits with a negative impact on your health
G.They also suggest charging your phone outside of your bedroom
语篇导读:本文是一篇说明文,介绍了四件伤害你健康的事情,并给出了专家的建议。阅读本文,有利于培养学生的健康意识。
答案及剖析:
36.F 考查学生理解上下文语义,建立段落内语义连贯的能力。根据下文“as well as some expert advice on what to do instead(以及一些专家建议)”可知此处为并列关系。本文主要介绍了一些对健康有负面影响的习惯和专家给出的建议。故选F。
37.B 考查学生理解段落大意和识别段落主旨句的能力。根据下文“Experts recommend...
trick is to stick to a consistent sleep schedule.(专家建议,养成放松的睡前习惯,比如洗澡、减少咖啡因和酒精的摄入。另一个诀窍是坚持一贯的睡眠计划。)”可知,专家的建议都是关于睡眠的。即此段主要讲睡眠不好会导致各种伤害。故选B。
38.A 考查学生理解上下文语义,建立段落内语义连贯的能力。根据前文可知,长时间坐着会对身心健康产生显著的负面影响。不过,不必通过像马拉松一样高强度锻炼来改善,每天做一些小运动即可。A选项中的“The small”指的是“small exercises”。故选A。
39.G 考查学生理解上下文语义,建立段落内语义连贯的能力。段首句“Is it uneasy to lock your cell phone away for a solid 60 minutes?(把你的手机锁在外面整整60分钟是不是很不舒服?)”与G选项专家的建议:在卧室外给手机充电相呼应。故选G。
40.E 考查学生理解上下文语义,建立段落内语义连贯的能力。根据下文“especially those that you have no time to accept(特别是那些你没有时间接受的邀请)”可知这是递进关系。对于没有时间接受的邀请,专家的建议当然是拒绝。故选E。

文章脉络
答案及剖析:
41.B 由后文“began to call Alexandra the ‘Petite(小的) Picasso’”可知艺术界同意(agreed)“he paints like me”这一说法。
42.B Alexandra刚八岁,画画就像毕加索一样,可见是非常有才华的(talented)。
43.A 句意:甚至在Alexandra两岁的时候,她几乎把所有的时间都花在涂色书上。句型spend time/money on sth.表示“花费时间或金钱在某事上”。
44.A 父母担心(Afraid)她独自待的时间太长,所以把涂色书拿走,想让她出去。
45.C 由上文可知,她的父母拿走她的涂色书。但是拿走她的色彩(colours)就像从她的生命里带走空气一样。
46.C 涂色书被拿走后,Alexandra就在她妈妈从办公室带(brought)回家里的纸上画画。
47.A 在Alexandra 四岁的时候,她父母开始注意到她画(drew)的人物像。
48.B 分析选项并结合语意可知,她开始(started)用水彩作画,然后又用其他颜料。

50.D 由下文“Alexandra had several other exhibitions.”可知,老师帮助八岁的Alexandra在当地一家图书馆组织了她的第一次展览(exhibition)。
51.A 到她开画展的那个时候,她已经完成了(completed) 250多幅画。
52.A 由于她的展览受到了艺术评论家们的关注,她开始出现(appear)在美国的电视、新闻和脱口秀节目里。
53.C 句意:现在Alexandra仍旧(still)以她独特的风格作画。
54.D 句意:Alexandra与世界各地的那些需要得到帮助的人分享她的财富。in need意为“需要帮助的,穷困的”。

I was walking with a friend yesterday 56. I found a cellphone in a pile of snow.I 57. (pick) it up and it still worked!I started looking through the name list and dialing numbers to see whether I could figure out whose phone it was.58. (luck),only one person answered and she didn’t recognise the number.Since that lady didn’t know whose phone it was,my friend suggested that we go back to 59. house that we found the cellphone in front of.I knocked on the door and two college-age persons answered.They 60. (lose) their phones,but as I told them the story and mentioned some 61. on the name list,the young man said that he also had those names and it must be the phone of one of their friends.I really didn’t have anything 62. (say),because in my mind I was just doing the right thing.I 63. (immediate) tried to find the owner,because that is exactly what I would want someone to do if either I or any of my family members lost phones.The purpose of helping others is not for return.64. (help) others is more than enough for me and it is the most
65. (end) joy of life.
语篇导读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者和朋友散步时发现了一部手机,并试图找手机主人的故事。阅读本文,有利于培养学生拾金不昧的品质以及助人为乐的意识。
答案及剖析:
56.when 考查固定句型。此处是句型be doing...when...,意为“正在做……这时……”。
57.picked 考查时态。根据上文的“found”和下文的“worked”可知,此处需要用一般过去时,故用picked。
58.Unluckily 考查副词。修饰整个句子,用副词。
59.the 考查冠词。house后有定语从句修饰,因此用定冠词the表示特指。
60.hadn’t lost 考查时态。根据上下文,应是“他们没有丢手机”;上一句是一般过去时,“没有丢手机”发生在作者去问他们之前,是过去的过去,应用过去完成时;lose是不规则变化动词,过去分词为lost。
61.names 考查名词单复数。根据下文“those names”可知,是一些联系人的名字,name应用复数形式。
62.to say 考查非谓语动词。have something/nothing to do结构用动词不定式作定语。
63.immediately 考查副词。修饰谓语动词tried,用副词。
64.Helping/To help 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,所填词在句中作主语;此处help是动词,用动名词或动词不定式作句子主语。
65.endless 考查形容词。用形容词修饰名词。

Last weekend,I went to Mark’s new house nearby a forest for a little get-together.After lunch when I was chatting with him and his wife Cody,he asked me,“Hey,Tom,have you ever been to a secret spot?”Before I could even finish saying no,Cody and Mark were already at the door with their jackets on.And the next moment we were heading out into the forest with a camera,a fishing net and a plastic
bucket (桶).
We walked through the forest along a path by a small river.Breathing the fresh air,we three talked and laughed all the way.
“Hey!What are you guys doing?”someone suddenly shouted from behind.Mark’s and Cody’s eyes immediately widened,and without a word they started running.I had no choice but to follow them,getting my shoes wet and dirty with mud.We probably ran for about 10 minutes before Mark and Cody slowed down.I stopped to catch my breath and asked,“Who was that?”
Mark replied,“The most annoying neighbour ever.If he caught up with us,
there’s no telling what could happen.He is always making fun of us.I dislike him.”We kept walking on for a few more minutes.Then a beautiful lake appeared before our eyes.“Wow!Amazing!”I shouted and could hardly hold back my excitement.The lake was large and the water was deep and blue,looking so peaceful with tall trees around it.

Looking around,we saw a rubber boat floating by the shore.

One possible version:
Looking around,we saw a rubber boat floating by the shore.“How about going boating?”Mark asked.“Good idea.”So we three excitedly jumped onto the boat and rowed far out.I was thrilled to find so many fishes in the lake.Before I could say a word,Mark had cast the fishing net into the water.“Let’s wait and see,”Mark smiled mysteriously.“Look this way.Let me take a photo of you two,”Cody said,taking out the camera.Hearing that,I quickly approached Mark.But all of a sudden I lost my balance and fell into the water.
“Help!Help!Help!”I was so frightened and cried for help.However,none of us could swim.Mark and Cody tried to pull me up from the water but in vain.Struggling in the water,I was almost exhausted when I felt myself lifted by someone.It was
Mark’s neighbour,who followed us there and saw what had happened.Without hesitation,he jumped into the water and I was saved.
