At 7:30 we have Art Review, a program which has fast become a favorite among our listeners, with its mix of in-depth reports on artistic events, and interviews with the artists. Today we’ll go to the National Museum in London, which holds almost five events a year, and this one is always particular and popular because it has many works by student artists.
Then at 8:00, there’s another one in our series of classic plays and tonight it’s The Vanishing Lady, starring Margaret Louden. It’s a brilliant play by Porten and also his last work before he moved on to writing for films.
Finally for those who like sailing, Business Scenes at 9:30 brings you the “unsinkable” boat and a chance to meet its maker, a Canadian businessman—Peter Field. In 1995, Peter was a manager in a computer company but he left that job to go on a world trip. He had wanted a stress-free life but ended up building boats. His new company has many products, including expensive boats costing $1-2 million, which Peter claims will suffer no serious damage even if they hit an iceberg at full speed…
Well, back to this afternoon’s programs…
第二部分 阅读理解 (共两节，满分50分)
第一节 (共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5 分)
A
Accompanied by the background sounds of Chinese traditional instruments, Yuanxi — China Daily’s digital employee — introduced the 9,000-year-old stone carvings (岩画) from the Helan Mountains in Northwest China’s Ningxia Hui autonomous region on Oct 14.
The meeting between the virtual human and Chinese traditional culture is quite interesting,” an internet user commented on Sina Weibo.
With the rise of the metaverse (元宇宙), virtual humans have become a growing phenomenon in China. According to a research report by QbitAI, it is estimated that the overall market size of China’s virtual humans will reach 270 billion yuan by 2030.
Though they are not real, these virtual beings share similar identities with us and serve in different fields of our daily lives, including education, broadcasting, and business. For example, in June 2021, Hua Zhibing, a virtual human who can write poetry, was officially registered as a student at Tsinghua University. Throughout the 2022 Winter Olympics, China’s first AI sign language presenter served hearing-impaired (有听力障碍的) audiences 24/7.
Due to their perfect image and interesting setups, some virtual humans even get a large number of fans and become idols in real life. Luo Tianyi is one of them. As a virtual singer, Luo has over 5 million followers on Sina Weibo. When she held a concert in Shanghai in 2018, more than 10,000 fans waved glow sticks and cheered for her. Gao Yu, a fan of Luo, told Economic Information Daily that “just like chasing human idols, Luo’s fans also hold birthday parties for her and buy the products she promotes.”
While the future of virtual humans seems promising, problems also lurk (隐藏着) underneath. As the novelty wears off, some followers are getting tired of virtual humans’ never-changing expressions. “No matter how lifelike these virtual influencers look, they’re still not real people. It’s a little scary,” Gigi You, 23, from Guangdong, told Insider. Studies also showed that their “perfect” face and “perfect” life which humans are unable to achieve can also trigger (引发) anxiety and depression in individuals.
Generally speaking, virtual humans are often seen as the gateway to the metaverse and have demonstrated financial potential, but there’s still a lot of room for development, reported Xinhua.
21. What can we learn about Yuanxi?
A. She is the first digital employee in China.
B. She played Chinese traditional instruments.
C. She covered stories about stone carvings.
D. She was designed to promote Chinese traditional culture.
22. Why is Hua Zhibing mentioned?
A. To show the popularity of virtual humans.
B. To illustrate the similarities of virtual humans.
C. To describe the characteristics of virtual humans.
D. To explain the importance of virtual humans in our lives.
23. What does Gigi You think of virtual idols?
A. They lose appeal quickly. B. They are too good to be true.
C. They can make people anxious. D. They are never as real as humans.
【答案】21. C 22. B 23. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了虚拟人的应用以及人们对虚拟人的看法。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Accompanied by the background sounds of Chinese traditional instruments, Yuanxi — China Daily’s digital employee — introduced the 9,000-year-old stone carvings (岩画) from the Helan Mountains in Northwest China’s Ningxia Hui autonomous region on Oct 14.(10月14日，在中国传统乐器的背景声中，《中国日报》的数字员工元曦介绍了来自中国西北部宁夏回族自治区贺兰山的9000年前的石雕)”可知，元曦报道了关于石刻的故事。故选C。
【22题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Though they are not real, these virtual beings share similar identities with us and serve in different fields of our daily lives, including education, broadcasting, and business. For example, in June 2021, Hua Zhibing, a virtual human who can write poetry, was officially registered as a student at Tsinghua University. Throughout the 2022 Winter Olympics, China’s first AI sign language presenter served hearing-impaired (有听力障碍的) audiences 24/7.(虽然他们不是真实存在的，但这些虚拟人与我们有着相似的身份，并在我们日常生活的不同领域服务，包括教育、广播和商业。例如，2021年6月，会写诗的虚拟人华智冰正式注册成为清华大学的学生。在2022年冬奥会期间，中国首个人工智能手语主持人24小时为听障观众服务)”可推知，提到华智冰是为了说明虚拟人与人类的相似之处。故选B。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段““No matter how lifelike these virtual influencers look, they’re still not real people. It’s a little scary,” Gigi You, 23, from Guangdong, told Insider. Studies also showed that their “perfect” face and “perfect” life which humans are unable to achieve can also trigger (引发) anxiety and depression in individuals.(“无论这些虚拟网红看起来多么逼真，他们仍然不是真人。这有点可怕，”来自广东的23岁的尤琪琪在接受内幕网采访时表示。研究还表明，人类无法实现的“完美”面孔和“完美”生活也会引发个体的焦虑和抑郁)”可知，尤琪琪认为虚拟偶像永远不会像人类一样真实。故选D。
B
A 63-year-old Chinese grandpa’s traditional carpentry skills are delighting tens of millions of viewers online as he creates woodwork without glue, screws or nails.
The Chinese master carpenter, Wang Dewen, known as “Grandpa Amu” on YouTube, has been honored as the modern day Lu Ban, a famous Chinese structural engineer during the Zhou Dynasty, thanks to his vast carpentry knowledge. One of his videos, which shows him making a fantastic wooden arch bridge, went viral on the platform, gaining more than 42 million views.
Grandpa Amu follows an ancient Chinese technique, which means no nails or glue are involved in the entire process of building the arch bridge. Grandpa Amu has also made several wooden toys for his grandson using the same technique. He created a folding stool (凳子) that looked like the China pavilion from the 2010 Shanghai Expo. “A block of wood transforms into a stool. Genius,” a YouTube user named Rey commented under the video.
Li Ziqi, who lives in a picturesque village of southwest China’s Sichuan Province, has made a name for herself by making various Chinese dishes on YouTube since 2016. In her videos, she gracefully works as a farmer, impressing viewers with her understanding of food, nature and Chinese culture while showcasing the charm of Chinese culture in every detail of daily life. Her traditional food preparation craft and Chinese rural lifestyle have attracted 11.1 million subscribers on YouTube. Just like Li Ziqi, Grandpa Amu is also trying to spread unique Chinese techniques to the world.
Grandpa Amu’s son and daughter-in-law now work full time on his videos, hoping that the channel’s popularity would help local villagers better sell their farm produce.“ We came up with the idea of making the videos because we wanted to bring our rural culture to others and let people learn about these ancient Chinese techniques,” said Huang Chunmei, Grandpa Amu’s daughter-in-law, in an interview with South China Morning Post. Which is one of Song Dan’s work at the airport as a Customs Officer?
24. What does the underlined word “viral” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. infected B. popular C. crazy D. famous
25. What do we know from the passage?
A. The video of making a folding stool amazed the viewers.
B. Grandpa Amu uses a variety of techniques to create woodwork.
C. Lu Ban was good at doing carpentry without glue, screws or nails.
D. Grandpa Amu uses no tools in the entire process of creating woodwork.
26. Why does the author mention Li Ziqi in paragraph 4?
A. To help readers better understand the work of being a farmer.
B. To provide another example of a farmer being famous through internet.
C. To prove the popularity of Chinese rural lifestyle nowadays.
D. To show their common intention of spreading Chinese culture to the world.

【24题详解】

细节理解题。根据第三段“He created a folding stool (凳子) that looked like the China pavilion from the 2010 Shanghai Expo. “A block of wood transforms into a stool.

【26题详解】

C
Magpies (喜鹊) can be found all over the world. The black and white birds can be seen flying over the skies of China and the UK alike. These charming birds are seemingly everywhere.
While they do span (跨越) the globe, they often share the common meaning of luck in spite of the culture everywhere they are found. In the UK, there is a poem related to what seeing a different number of magpies is supposed to mean:
One for sorrow / Two for joy / Three for a girl / Four for a boy / Five for Silver / Six for Gold / Seven for a secret never to be told.
Three and four are usually interpreted as revealing the gender of a soon-to-be-born child or possibly talking about romantic success. Five and six mean that the person is soon likely to discover wealth. Seven means that a secret will successfully be kept away from curious ears forever. They are all positive, except for the sighting of a single bird, which is supposed to be bad luck. However, there is a way of removing your sorrow. By simply saluting (敬礼) the lonely bird, you gain another dose of good luck.
There is a saying in China that goes “the singing of a magpie foretells good luck and happiness while that of a crow bad luck and misery (喜鹊报喜，乌鸦报丧)”, meaning that magpies are symbols of good luck, while crows are those of bad fortune.
In the UK, crows are also seen as a bad omen (征兆) by many people. In TV shows and films, if you see a group of crows chirping (鸣叫) with their distinctive call, the intention is to introduce an atmosphere of misery (痛苦) or death. A group of crows is also called a “murder”, bringing to mind the superstition (迷信) related to the bird.
However, such a distinction between the two animals just based on their color is maybe unfair. They belong to the same family of birds, having some of the most intelligent animals in the whole animal kingdom. And while crows have been known to use their intelligence to use tools for finding food, magpies have been known for stealing shiny objects. Maybe it’s time for cultures all over the world to rethink these birds.
28. What does seeing six magpies mean in the UK?
A. The viewer will make a fortune.
B. The viewer will have a baby girl.
C. The viewer will find romance.
D. The viewer will discover a secret.
29. How can people avoid bad luck after seeing a single magpie, according to the UK traditions?
A. By saying hello. B. By giving it food.
C. By turning it away. D. By showing it respect.
30. Why do some TV shows and films present crows calling?
A. To create a sad atmosphere. B. To mourn someone who has died.
C. To signal the death of a murderer. D. To bring back miserable memories.
31. Which of the following would the author most probably agree with?
A. Magpies are more intelligent than crows.
B. Magpies really deserve their good reputation.
C. Crows should be equally seen as a good sign.
D. People should change their opinions on these birds.
【答案】28. A 29. D 30. A 31. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍的是喜鹊和乌鸦是非常常见的鸟类，在英国喜鹊乌鸦有着不同的寓意。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Five and six mean that the person is soon likely to discover wealth.(五和六意味着这个人很快就会发现财富。)”可知，看到六只喜鹊寓意着发财。故选A。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“However, there is a way of removing your sorrow. By simply saluting (敬礼) the lonely bird, you gain another dose of good luck.(然而，有一种方法可以消除你的悲伤。只要向这只孤独的鸟敬礼，你就会获得另一剂好运。)”可知，根据英国的传统，人们在看到一只喜鹊后，向它表示敬意可以避免厄运。故选D。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“In TV shows and films, if you see a group of crows chirping (鸣叫) with their distinctive call, the intention is to introduce an atmosphere of misery (痛苦) or death. (在电视节目和电影中，如果你看到一群乌鸦用它们独特的叫声鸣叫，其目的是引入一种痛苦或死亡的气氛。)”可知，一群乌鸦用它们独特的叫声鸣叫，其目的是引入一种痛苦或死亡的气氛。故选A。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“However, such a distinction between the two animals just based on their color is maybe unfair. (然而，仅仅根据它们的颜色来区分这两种动物可能是不公平的。)”以及“Maybe it’s time for cultures all over the world to rethink these birds.(也许是时候让世界各地的文化重新思考这些鸟了。)”可知，仅仅通过颜色来区别对待乌鸦和喜鹊，这是不公平的，作者认为人们应该改变对这些鸟的看法。故选D。
D
In the spring of 2013, my wife and I opened Literati Bookstore in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Opening a community-minded independent bookstore was a dream we’d shared. We were in our late twenties, pursuing adream.
When opening day arrived, we unlocked the door and held our breath. One by one, people walked inside, paged through new books, and discussed favourite authors. The bookstore came alive.
That morning, I had set out a typewriter on our lower level for anyone to use. It was a community-building experiment: What if people could walk into a bookstore and type anything they wanted?
The first typewriter I ever fell in love with was my grandfather’s -a 1930s Smith Corona. My memory of him is limited to impressions: visits to his Florida apartment, beach picnics, and a fascinating black typewriter on his writing desk. One year, long after he passed, Grandma gave me his Smith Corona for Christmas. At the time, I was a struggling writer. Seeing his old typewriter again stirred something in me. His typewriter made writing fun again. And for the first time since his death, I felt connected to him, to a past I never really knew.
The typewriter I set out on opening day was a light blue Olivetti Lettera 32. I inserted a clean piece of paper and let it be: the world’s smallest publishing house, waiting for an author. One of the notes I found that first day was: Thank you for being here. I didn’t see the typer’s identity, so it appeared as though the typewriter itself was thanking me. Soon, more notes accumulated. Typewriting had become part of our bookstore’s identity.
Customers and friends began encouraging me to turn these notes into a book. At first, I was hesitant. But then I read through the piles of messy, typewritten pages again. Some made me tear up; many made me laugh out loud. They shouldn’t be locked inside my filing cabinet at home. Inside our store, surrounded by books that have been labored over by authors, editors, and marketers, there’s a way for people to publish directly into the world in permanent ink spelling errors and all.
32. Why did the author set out a typewriter in the bookstore?
A. To honour his grandfather.
B. To provide convenience to customers.
C. To offer people a way to express themselves.
D. To respond to community residents’ requirement.
33. How did the author feel when he got Smith Corona as a gift?
A. Curious. B. Amused. C. Surprised. D. Inspired.
34. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?
A. There was a publishing house in the bookstore.
B. The bookstore was famous for its unique typewriter.
C. The typewritten notes were full of spelling errors.
D. The author would publish a book consisting of those notes.
35. What message does the text intend to convey in this passage?
A. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.
B. Everyone can be a writer of his own life.
C. It only takes a typewriter to be an author.
D. Books are the ever-burning lamps of accumulated wisdom.
【答案】32. C 33. D 34. D 35. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了作者开了一家人文书店，在书店中摆放了一台供人免费使用的打字机，打印他们想打印的任何东西。后来，很多人都来使用这个打印机，在顾客和朋友的鼓励下，作者把这些笔记合成了一本书出版了。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段第二句话“It was a community-building experiment: What if people could walk into a bookstore and type anything they wanted? (这是一个社区建设实验：如果人们可以走进书店，打印出他们想要的任何东西呢？)”可知，作者在书店布置打字机是为人们提供一种表达自己的方式。故选C。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段第四、五、六句“At the time, I was a struggling writer. Seeing his old typewriter again stirred something in me. His typewriter made writing fun again. (当时，我是一个挣扎的作家。再次看到他的旧打字机，我感到很兴奋。他的打字机又让写作变得有趣了)”可推知，作者在收到史密斯·科罗纳的打印机作为礼物时，他受到了鼓舞，是这个打印机让他的写作变得有了乐趣。故选D。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段第二、三、四句话“At first, I was hesitant. But then I read through the piles of messy, typewritten pages again. Some made me tear up; many made me laugh out loud. They shouldn’t be locked inside my filing cabinet at home. (起初，我很犹豫。但随后，我又翻阅了一堆乱七八糟的打印页。有些让我流泪；很多都让我放声大笑。它们不应该被锁在我家的文件柜里)”可知，这些打印出来的东西很有意思，不应该被锁在作者家的文件柜里。由此可推知，作者将出版一本由这些笔记组成的书。故选D。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句话“Inside our store, surrounded by books that have been labored over by authors, editors, and marketers, there’s a way for people to publish directly into the world in permanent ink spelling errors and all.(在我们的书店里，虽然被作者、编辑和市场营销人员辛勤工作的书籍包围着，但有一种方法可以让人们直接向世界出版带有永久性的墨水拼写错误的书籍)”以及全文可推知，作者在自己的书店放置了打印机供人们把他们想打印的东西打印出来，这些东西非常有意思，可以让人哭让人笑，足以把它们合在一起出版一本书。所以文章想传递的信息就是“成为一名作家只需要一台打字机”。故选C。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章开篇借由英国诗人Alfred Lord Tennyson的话“残酷无情”，引出观点：我们应尽量与野生动物保持距离。接着以加拿大森林里的土狼和云南大象迁徙为例进行论证，告诫我们应当远离这些动物的生活，这是保护它们的一种方式，也是我们的责任。
【36题详解】
设空处位于段末，应具有总结前文的作用。上文“When the British poet Alfred Lord Tennyson described nature as “red in tooth and claw”, he was telling us that the natural world can be cruel as well as beautiful.(当英国诗人阿尔弗雷德·丁尼生将自然描述为“残酷无情”时，他是在告诉我们，自然界可残酷可美丽。)”提到了英国诗人的话，他认为自然界可残酷可美丽，但此处尚未表明作者自己的观点，由此可推知，设空处是作者在总结前文并表明自己的观点。D项“In simple terms, we should try to keep proper distance from wild animals.(简单地说，我们应该尽量与野生动物保持适当的距离。)”恰好能总结前文内容，又表达了作者自己的观点，符合语境。故选D项。
【37题详解】
上文“Most people living in urban areas rarely encounter wild animals in their natural surroundings.(大多数生活在城市地区的人很少在自然环境中遇到野生动物。)”提到了大多数生活在城市的人很少遇到野生动物；下文“And they are willing to get close to them. But for wild animals, it is “eat or be eaten,” and they can’t distinguish between humans and other animals.(他们愿意接近野生动物。但对于野生动物来说，这是“要么吃，要么被吃”，它们无法区分人类和其他动物。)”提到了，人们愿意接近这些野生动物，但野生动物只有“要么吃，要么被吃”的概念，无法区分人类和其他动物；由此可推知，人们接近这些野生动物，是因为没有正确的认知。E项“Hence they misunderstand that wild animals are just as friendly as Disney characters. (因此，他们误以为野生动物和迪士尼角色一样友好)”一方面与下文“And they are willing to get close to them.(他们愿意接近野生动物)”构成因果关系，另一方面也与下文“野生动物的反应”对应。故选E项。
【38题详解】
设空处位于段首，应具有概述下文的作用。下文“In Canadian woods lives a dog-like animal, coyote, which is a little bigger than a fox, but smaller than a wolf. They usually avoid humans, but the occasional attacks can be deadly. Every year, one or two people end up getting killed by coyotes.(在加拿大的森林里，生活着一种类似狗的动物，叫土狼。它比狐狸大一点，但比狼小。它们通常避开人类，但偶尔的攻击可能是致命的。每年有一两个人被土狼咬死。)”提到了加拿大森林里有一种土狼，有时会把人咬死。由此可推知，此处段首提及的内容与森林有关。A项“A walk in the woods can be dangerous.(在树林里散步可能很危险。)”提到了在森林里散步也可能很危险，恰好与下文提及的加拿大森林对应；而下文内容正是本句话的原因支撑。故选A项。
【39题详解】
上文“Animal experts haven’t determined why the elephants went on their journey.(动物专家还没有确定大象为什么继续它们的旅程。)”提到了动物专家也还没确定这些大象迁徙的原因是什么；下文“The wild animals we love are in a constant struggle for survival.(我们所爱的野生动物一直在为生存而奋斗。)”提到了这些野生动物一直在为生存而奋斗；由此可推知，设空处可能是在谈这些大象迁徙的潜在原因。G项“A reasonable possibility is that they probably needed more room and more food to survive.(一个合理的可能性是，它们可能需要更多的空间和更多的食物来生存。)”提到了其中一个合理的可能性，就是它们需要更多的生存空间和食物，恰好与下文的“in a constant struggle for survival”对应。故选G项。
【40题详解】
上文“Maybe we should try to stay away from them.(也许我们应该尽量远离它们。)”提议应尽量远离野生动物；下文“Their lives—red in tooth and claw—are difficult enough without us causing them any more problems than they already have.(它们的生活——残酷无情——已经够艰难的了，不用我们再给它们制造更多的麻烦。)”提到了“我们应该尽量远离野生动物”的原因。由此可推知设空处是在进一步解释为什么需要远离野生动物。B项“It is a way to protect the wild animals, and it’s also our responsibility.(这是保护野生动物的一种方式，也是我们的责任。)”恰好与上下文对应。故选B项。

第二节 读后续写 (满分25分)
67. 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
That day, I was going to skate a clean freestyle program for the first time in a year. I determined to land the axel (前外一周半跳) in competition.
“I can make it!” I thought as I skated to the center ice. When my music sounded, I started my program with a circular step and a bright smile, followed by a beautiful combination spin. Flying camel, sit spin, layback spin. Perfection. The jump! The axel!
I could do it when I practiced off-ice, but I’d only landed it on-ice approximately fourteen times in my entire life. So I was a little nervous. I’d leave it out if I could, but my Olympic dreams depended on it. My coach, Geena, put it early in my program so I could do it while my legs were not tired. Taking a deep breath, “I can succeed!” I thought.
I was on the right back outside edge of my skate blade (冰刀), ready to turn forward and launch into the axel. My nerves were back, working against me. “I can do this!” I thought. I stepped into takeoff and I did… a waltz jump (半周跳). It is a jump I’d been doing since I was pretty young. It is only one-half a rotation (旋转) instead of the one and one-half that I need for the axel.
I glimpsed Coach Geena’s questioning eyebrow as I glided past the door and imagined the disappointed looks on my parents’ faces. “It’s not over,” I reasoned to myself, glancing into the bleachers (露天座位). “I’d just replace the next jump with the axel.”
However, it didn’t work out the way I’d hoped. I fell, and I kept falling. Never one to give up, I replaced every jump in my program with the axel, but I didn’t land one. I spent so much time on the ice that it’s like I was making sure the ice was clean for the next skater. The two minutes, fifteen seconds of my program felt like an age. By the time I was done, my dress was soaked through and I was seven seconds behind my music, so I finished skating to silence.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
As I skated toward the exit, I felt everyone was looking at me with pity.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The performance going on, I rose up from the bleachers, determined to go home but my parents held me up.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
As I skated toward the exit, I felt everyone was looking at me with pity. How I wished the floor would open up and swallow me! Offstage, Coach Geena handed me a towel and I thanked her with a heavy heart. Then I climbed upstairs and seated myself between my parents. Dad placed a comforting hand on my shoulder and Mom gave me a tight squeeze. “Darling, it’s OK.” I nodded, my eyes watering. As I turned my gaze to the ice center, I happened to catch sight of a perfect axel the next skater landed. There came clapping and cheering. My heart grew heavier.
The performance going on, I rose up from the bleachers, determined to go home but my parents held me up. “It’s poor sportsmanship to leave before the results are posted.” Hesitating for a moment, I sat back. Time dragging, I was absent-minded. However, when I saw a skater fall down and then gracefully stand up, I watched the performance with full attention. When the competition ended, I gave my parents a big hug and determined to pursue my Olympic dream no matter how many difficulties I would face.
Another possible version:
As I skated toward the exit, I felt everyone was looking at me with pity. When the next skater glided past me to take her place center ice, I couldn’t help thinking I was a terrible skater. After making an eye contact with Coach Geena, I made my way to my parents and sat between them. My weak smile resulted in their hugs of encouragement. Not having the mood to watch the performance, I sank in thought soon. “What am I doing here? My skating career will end.” The more I thought about it, the sadder I felt. “Maybe I should give up.”
The performance going on, I rose up from the bleachers, determined to go home but my parents held me up. I looked down to see concern and worry in their eyes. Words failed me. Unwilling to make them worry, I sank back into the seat and continued watching the performance. Suddenly, the skater on the ice fell. As she struggled to her feet and went on with her performance, I saw an excellent performer. She failed outside, but not inside. I suddenly realized giving up would leave me in total failure. Ashamed of my stupid decision, I decided to fight against discouragements to realise my skating dream.

Today we’ll go to the National Museum in London, which holds almost five events a year, and this one is always particular and popular because it has many works by student artists.
Then at 8:00, there’s another one in our series of classic plays and tonight it’s The Vanishing Lady, starring Margaret Louden. It’s a brilliant play by Porten and also his last work before he moved on to writing for films.
Finally for those who like sailing, Business Scenes at 9:30 brings you the “unsinkable” boat and a chance to meet its maker, a Canadian businessman—Peter Field. In 1995, Peter was a manager in a computer company but he left that job to go on a world trip. He had wanted a stress-free life but ended up building boats. His new company has many products, including expensive boats costing $1-2 million, which Peter claims will suffer no serious damage even if they hit an iceberg at full speed…
Well, back to this afternoon’s programs…
第二部分 阅读理解 (共两节，满分50分)
第一节 (共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5 分)
A
Accompanied by the background sounds of Chinese traditional instruments, Yuanxi — China Daily’s digital employee — introduced the 9,000-year-old stone carvings (岩画) from the Helan Mountains in Northwest China’s Ningxia Hui autonomous region on Oct 14.
The meeting between the virtual human and Chinese traditional culture is quite interesting,” an internet user commented on Sina Weibo.
With the rise of the metaverse (元宇宙), virtual humans have become a growing phenomenon in China. According to a research report by QbitAI, it is estimated that the overall market size of China’s virtual humans will reach 270 billion yuan by 2030.
Though they are not real, these virtual beings share similar identities with us and serve in different fields of our daily lives, including education, broadcasting, and business. For example, in June 2021, Hua Zhibing, a virtual human who can write poetry, was officially registered as a student at Tsinghua University. Throughout the 2022 Winter Olympics, China’s first AI sign language presenter served hearing-impaired (有听力障碍的) audiences 24/7.
Due to their perfect image and interesting setups, some virtual humans even get a large number of fans and become idols in real life. Luo Tianyi is one of them. As a virtual singer, Luo has over 5 million followers on Sina Weibo. When she held a concert in Shanghai in 2018, more than 10,000 fans waved glow sticks and cheered for her. Gao Yu, a fan of Luo, told Economic Information Daily that “just like chasing human idols, Luo’s fans also hold birthday parties for her and buy the products she promotes.”
While the future of virtual humans seems promising, problems also lurk (隐藏着) underneath. As the novelty wears off, some followers are getting tired of virtual humans’ never-changing expressions. “No matter how lifelike these virtual influencers look, they’re still not real people. It’s a little scary,” Gigi You, 23, from Guangdong, told Insider. Studies also showed that their “perfect” face and “perfect” life which humans are unable to achieve can also trigger (引发) anxiety and depression in individuals.
Generally speaking, virtual humans are often seen as the gateway to the metaverse and have demonstrated financial potential, but there’s still a lot of room for development, reported Xinhua.
21. What can we learn about Yuanxi?
A. She is the first digital employee in China.
B. She played Chinese traditional instruments.
C. She covered stories about stone carvings.
D. She was designed to promote Chinese traditional culture.
22. Why is Hua Zhibing mentioned?
A. To show the popularity of virtual humans.
B. To illustrate the similarities of virtual humans.
C. To describe the characteristics of virtual humans.
D. To explain the importance of virtual humans in our lives.
23. What does Gigi You think of virtual idols?
A. They lose appeal quickly. B. They are too good to be true.
C. They can make people anxious. D. They are never as real as humans.
【答案】21. C 22. B 23. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了虚拟人的应用以及人们对虚拟人的看法。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Accompanied by the background sounds of Chinese traditional instruments, Yuanxi — China Daily’s digital employee — introduced the 9,000-year-old stone carvings (岩画) from the Helan Mountains in Northwest China’s Ningxia Hui autonomous region on Oct 14.(10月14日，在中国传统乐器的背景声中，《中国日报》的数字员工元曦介绍了来自中国西北部宁夏回族自治区贺兰山的9000年前的石雕)”可知，元曦报道了关于石刻的故事。故选C。
【22题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Though they are not real, these virtual beings share similar identities with us and serve in different fields of our daily lives, including education, broadcasting, and business. For example, in June 2021, Hua Zhibing, a virtual human who can write poetry, was officially registered as a student at Tsinghua University. Throughout the 2022 Winter Olympics, China’s first AI sign language presenter served hearing-impaired (有听力障碍的) audiences 24/7.(虽然他们不是真实存在的，但这些虚拟人与我们有着相似的身份，并在我们日常生活的不同领域服务，包括教育、广播和商业。例如，2021年6月，会写诗的虚拟人华智冰正式注册成为清华大学的学生。在2022年冬奥会期间，中国首个人工智能手语主持人24小时为听障观众服务)”可推知，提到华智冰是为了说明虚拟人与人类的相似之处。故选B。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段““No matter how lifelike these virtual influencers look, they’re still not real people. It’s a little scary,” Gigi You, 23, from Guangdong, told Insider. Studies also showed that their “perfect” face and “perfect” life which humans are unable to achieve can also trigger (引发) anxiety and depression in individuals.(“无论这些虚拟网红看起来多么逼真，他们仍然不是真人。这有点可怕，”来自广东的23岁的尤琪琪在接受内幕网采访时表示。研究还表明，人类无法实现的“完美”面孔和“完美”生活也会引发个体的焦虑和抑郁)”可知，尤琪琪认为虚拟偶像永远不会像人类一样真实。故选D。
B
A 63-year-old Chinese grandpa’s traditional carpentry skills are delighting tens of millions of viewers online as he creates woodwork without glue, screws or nails.
The Chinese master carpenter, Wang Dewen, known as “Grandpa Amu” on YouTube, has been honored as the modern day Lu Ban, a famous Chinese structural engineer during the Zhou Dynasty, thanks to his vast carpentry knowledge. One of his videos, which shows him making a fantastic wooden arch bridge, went viral on the platform, gaining more than 42 million views.
Grandpa Amu follows an ancient Chinese technique, which means no nails or glue are involved in the entire process of building the arch bridge. Grandpa Amu has also made several wooden toys for his grandson using the same technique. He created a folding stool (凳子) that looked like the China pavilion from the 2010 Shanghai Expo. “A block of wood transforms into a stool. Genius,” a YouTube user named Rey commented under the video.
Li Ziqi, who lives in a picturesque village of southwest China’s Sichuan Province, has made a name for herself by making various Chinese dishes on YouTube since 2016. In her videos, she gracefully works as a farmer, impressing viewers with her understanding of food, nature and Chinese culture while showcasing the charm of Chinese culture in every detail of daily life. Her traditional food preparation craft and Chinese rural lifestyle have attracted 11.1 million subscribers on YouTube. Just like Li Ziqi, Grandpa Amu is also trying to spread unique Chinese techniques to the world.
Grandpa Amu’s son and daughter-in-law now work full time on his videos, hoping that the channel’s popularity would help local villagers better sell their farm produce.“ We came up with the idea of making the videos because we wanted to bring our rural culture to others and let people learn about these ancient Chinese techniques,” said Huang Chunmei, Grandpa Amu’s daughter-in-law, in an interview with South China Morning Post. Which is one of Song Dan’s work at the airport as a Customs Officer?

A. The video of making a folding stool amazed the viewers.
B. Grandpa Amu uses a variety of techniques to create woodwork.

26. Why does the author mention Li Ziqi in paragraph 4?
A. To help readers better understand the work of being a farmer.
B. To provide another example of a farmer being famous through internet.
C. To prove the popularity of Chinese rural lifestyle nowadays.

C
Magpies (喜鹊) can be found all over the world. The black and white birds can be seen flying over the skies of China and the UK alike. These charming birds are seemingly everywhere.
While they do span (跨越) the globe, they often share the common meaning of luck in spite of the culture everywhere they are found. In the UK, there is a poem related to what seeing a different number of magpies is supposed to mean:
One for sorrow / Two for joy / Three for a girl / Four for a boy / Five for Silver / Six for Gold / Seven for a secret never to be told.
Three and four are usually interpreted as revealing the gender of a soon-to-be-born child or possibly talking about romantic success. Five and six mean that the person is soon likely to discover wealth. Seven means that a secret will successfully be kept away from curious ears forever. They are all positive, except for the sighting of a single bird, which is supposed to be bad luck. However, there is a way of removing your sorrow. By simply saluting (敬礼) the lonely bird, you gain another dose of good luck.
There is a saying in China that goes “the singing of a magpie foretells good luck and happiness while that of a crow bad luck and misery (喜鹊报喜，乌鸦报丧)”, meaning that magpies are symbols of good luck, while crows are those of bad fortune.
In the UK, crows are also seen as a bad omen (征兆) by many people. In TV shows and films, if you see a group of crows chirping (鸣叫) with their distinctive call, the intention is to introduce an atmosphere of misery (痛苦) or death. A group of crows is also called a “murder”, bringing to mind the superstition (迷信) related to the bird.
However, such a distinction between the two animals just based on their color is maybe unfair. They belong to the same family of birds, having some of the most intelligent animals in the whole animal kingdom. And while crows have been known to use their intelligence to use tools for finding food, magpies have been known for stealing shiny objects. Maybe it’s time for cultures all over the world to rethink these birds.
28. What does seeing six magpies mean in the UK?
A. The viewer will make a fortune.
B. The viewer will have a baby girl.
C. The viewer will find romance.
D. The viewer will discover a secret.
29. How can people avoid bad luck after seeing a single magpie, according to the UK traditions?
A. By saying hello. B. By giving it food.
C. By turning it away. D. By showing it respect.
30. Why do some TV shows and films present crows calling?
A. To create a sad atmosphere. B. To mourn someone who has died.
C. To signal the death of a murderer. D. To bring back miserable memories.
31. Which of the following would the author most probably agree with?
A. Magpies are more intelligent than crows.
B. Magpies really deserve their good reputation.
C. Crows should be equally seen as a good sign.
D. People should change their opinions on these birds.
【答案】28. A 29. D 30. A 31. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍的是喜鹊和乌鸦是非常常见的鸟类，在英国喜鹊乌鸦有着不同的寓意。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Five and six mean that the person is soon likely to discover wealth.(五和六意味着这个人很快就会发现财富。)”可知，看到六只喜鹊寓意着发财。故选A。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“However, there is a way of removing your sorrow. By simply saluting (敬礼) the lonely bird, you gain another dose of good luck.(然而，有一种方法可以消除你的悲伤。只要向这只孤独的鸟敬礼，你就会获得另一剂好运。)”可知，根据英国的传统，人们在看到一只喜鹊后，向它表示敬意可以避免厄运。故选D。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“In TV shows and films, if you see a group of crows chirping (鸣叫) with their distinctive call, the intention is to introduce an atmosphere of misery (痛苦) or death. (在电视节目和电影中，如果你看到一群乌鸦用它们独特的叫声鸣叫，其目的是引入一种痛苦或死亡的气氛。)”可知，一群乌鸦用它们独特的叫声鸣叫，其目的是引入一种痛苦或死亡的气氛。故选A。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“However, such a distinction between the two animals just based on their color is maybe unfair. (然而，仅仅根据它们的颜色来区分这两种动物可能是不公平的。)”以及“Maybe it’s time for cultures all over the world to rethink these birds.(也许是时候让世界各地的文化重新思考这些鸟了。)”可知，仅仅通过颜色来区别对待乌鸦和喜鹊，这是不公平的，作者认为人们应该改变对这些鸟的看法。故选D。
D
In the spring of 2013, my wife and I opened Literati Bookstore in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Opening a community-minded independent bookstore was a dream we’d shared. We were in our late twenties, pursuing adream.
When opening day arrived, we unlocked the door and held our breath. One by one, people walked inside, paged through new books, and discussed favourite authors. The bookstore came alive.
That morning, I had set out a typewriter on our lower level for anyone to use. It was a community-building experiment: What if people could walk into a bookstore and type anything they wanted?
The first typewriter I ever fell in love with was my grandfather’s -a 1930s Smith Corona. My memory of him is limited to impressions: visits to his Florida apartment, beach picnics, and a fascinating black typewriter on his writing desk. One year, long after he passed, Grandma gave me his Smith Corona for Christmas. At the time, I was a struggling writer. Seeing his old typewriter again stirred something in me. His typewriter made writing fun again. And for the first time since his death, I felt connected to him, to a past I never really knew.
The typewriter I set out on opening day was a light blue Olivetti Lettera 32. I inserted a clean piece of paper and let it be: the world’s smallest publishing house, waiting for an author. One of the notes I found that first day was: Thank you for being here. I didn’t see the typer’s identity, so it appeared as though the typewriter itself was thanking me. Soon, more notes accumulated. Typewriting had become part of our bookstore’s identity.
Customers and friends began encouraging me to turn these notes into a book. At first, I was hesitant. But then I read through the piles of messy, typewritten pages again. Some made me tear up; many made me laugh out loud. They shouldn’t be locked inside my filing cabinet at home. Inside our store, surrounded by books that have been labored over by authors, editors, and marketers, there’s a way for people to publish directly into the world in permanent ink spelling errors and all.
32. Why did the author set out a typewriter in the bookstore?
A. To honour his grandfather.
B. To provide convenience to customers.
C. To offer people a way to express themselves.
D. To respond to community residents’ requirement.
33. How did the author feel when he got Smith Corona as a gift?
A. Curious. B. Amused. C. Surprised. D. Inspired.
34. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?
A. There was a publishing house in the bookstore.
B. The bookstore was famous for its unique typewriter.
C. The typewritten notes were full of spelling errors.
D. The author would publish a book consisting of those notes.
35. What message does the text intend to convey in this passage?
A. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.
B. Everyone can be a writer of his own life.
C. It only takes a typewriter to be an author.
D. Books are the ever-burning lamps of accumulated wisdom.
【答案】32. C 33. D 34. D 35. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了作者开了一家人文书店，在书店中摆放了一台供人免费使用的打字机，打印他们想打印的任何东西。后来，很多人都来使用这个打印机，在顾客和朋友的鼓励下，作者把这些笔记合成了一本书出版了。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段第二句话“It was a community-building experiment: What if people could walk into a bookstore and type anything they wanted? (这是一个社区建设实验：如果人们可以走进书店，打印出他们想要的任何东西呢？)”可知，作者在书店布置打字机是为人们提供一种表达自己的方式。故选C。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段第四、五、六句“At the time, I was a struggling writer. Seeing his old typewriter again stirred something in me. His typewriter made writing fun again. (当时，我是一个挣扎的作家。再次看到他的旧打字机，我感到很兴奋。他的打字机又让写作变得有趣了)”可推知，作者在收到史密斯·科罗纳的打印机作为礼物时，他受到了鼓舞，是这个打印机让他的写作变得有了乐趣。故选D。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段第二、三、四句话“At first, I was hesitant. But then I read through the piles of messy, typewritten pages again. Some made me tear up; many made me laugh out loud. They shouldn’t be locked inside my filing cabinet at home. (起初，我很犹豫。但随后，我又翻阅了一堆乱七八糟的打印页。有些让我流泪；很多都让我放声大笑。它们不应该被锁在我家的文件柜里)”可知，这些打印出来的东西很有意思，不应该被锁在作者家的文件柜里。由此可推知，作者将出版一本由这些笔记组成的书。故选D。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句话“Inside our store, surrounded by books that have been labored over by authors, editors, and marketers, there’s a way for people to publish directly into the world in permanent ink spelling errors and all.(在我们的书店里，虽然被作者、编辑和市场营销人员辛勤工作的书籍包围着，但有一种方法可以让人们直接向世界出版带有永久性的墨水拼写错误的书籍)”以及全文可推知，作者在自己的书店放置了打印机供人们把他们想打印的东西打印出来，这些东西非常有意思，可以让人哭让人笑，足以把它们合在一起出版一本书。所以文章想传递的信息就是“成为一名作家只需要一台打字机”。故选C。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Most people living in urban areas rarely encounter wild animals in their natural surroundings. ____37____ And they are willing to get close to them. But for wild animals, it is “eat or be eaten,” and they can’t distinguish between humans and other animals.
____38____ In Canadian woods lives a dog-like animal, coyote, which is a little bigger than a fox, but smaller than a wolf. They usually avoid humans, but the occasional attacks can be deadly. Every year, one or two people end up getting killed by coyotes.
Earlier this year, a herd of elepants in Yunnan left their home in the Xishuangbanna National Nature Reserve and went on a meandering journey through the province. They destroyed crops and buildings along the way. Villages in their path had to be evacuated because of the potential dangers they posed to villagers. Animal experts haven’t determined why the elephants went on their journey. ____39____ The wild animals we love are in a constant struggle for survival. Our expanding into the natural habitats of wild animals can be dangerous for the animals and then us humans as well.
Maybe we should try to stay away from them. ____40____ Their lives—red in tooth and claw—are difficult enough without us causing them any more problems than they already have.
A. A walk in the woods can be dangerous.
B. It is a way to protect the wild animals, and it’s also our responsibility.
C. In Canada, people have a more realistic attitude towards wild animals.
D. In simple terms, we should try to keep proper distance from wild animals.
E. Hence they misunderstand that wild animals are just as friendly as Disney characters.
F. Thanks to active environmental conservation, the number of the elephants grew larger.
G. A reasonable possibility is that they probably needed more room and more food to survive.
【答案】36. D 37. E 38. A 39. G 40. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章开篇借由英国诗人Alfred Lord Tennyson的话“残酷无情”，引出观点：我们应尽量与野生动物保持距离。接着以加拿大森林里的土狼和云南大象迁徙为例进行论证，告诫我们应当远离这些动物的生活，这是保护它们的一种方式，也是我们的责任。

设空处位于段末，应具有总结前文的作用。上文“When the British poet Alfred Lord Tennyson described nature as “red in tooth and claw”, he was telling us that the natural world can be cruel as well as beautiful.(当英国诗人阿尔弗雷德·丁尼生将自然描述为“残酷无情”时，他是在告诉我们，自然界可残酷可美丽。)”提到了英国诗人的话，他认为自然界可残酷可美丽，但此处尚未表明作者自己的观点，由此可推知，设空处是作者在总结前文并表明自己的观点。D项“In simple terms, we should try to keep proper distance from wild animals.(简单地说，我们应该尽量与野生动物保持适当的距离。)”恰好能总结前文内容，又表达了作者自己的观点，符合语境。故选D项。
【37题详解】
上文“Most people living in urban areas rarely encounter wild animals in their natural surroundings.(大多数生活在城市地区的人很少在自然环境中遇到野生动物。)”提到了大多数生活在城市的人很少遇到野生动物；下文“And they are willing to get close to them. But for wild animals, it is “eat or be eaten,” and they can’t distinguish between humans and other animals.(他们愿意接近野生动物。但对于野生动物来说，这是“要么吃，要么被吃”，它们无法区分人类和其他动物。)”提到了，人们愿意接近这些野生动物，但野生动物只有“要么吃，要么被吃”的概念，无法区分人类和其他动物；由此可推知，人们接近这些野生动物，是因为没有正确的认知。E项“Hence they misunderstand that wild animals are just as friendly as Disney characters. (因此，他们误以为野生动物和迪士尼角色一样友好)”一方面与下文“And they are willing to get close to them.(他们愿意接近野生动物)”构成因果关系，另一方面也与下文“野生动物的反应”对应。故选E项。
【38题详解】
设空处位于段首，应具有概述下文的作用。下文“In Canadian woods lives a dog-like animal, coyote, which is a little bigger than a fox, but smaller than a wolf. They usually avoid humans, but the occasional attacks can be deadly. Every year, one or two people end up getting killed by coyotes.(在加拿大的森林里，生活着一种类似狗的动物，叫土狼。它比狐狸大一点，但比狼小。它们通常避开人类，但偶尔的攻击可能是致命的。每年有一两个人被土狼咬死。)”提到了加拿大森林里有一种土狼，有时会把人咬死。由此可推知，此处段首提及的内容与森林有关。A项“A walk in the woods can be dangerous.(在树林里散步可能很危险。)”提到了在森林里散步也可能很危险，恰好与下文提及的加拿大森林对应；而下文内容正是本句话的原因支撑。故选A项。
【39题详解】
上文“Animal experts haven’t determined why the elephants went on their journey.(动物专家还没有确定大象为什么继续它们的旅程。)”提到了动物专家也还没确定这些大象迁徙的原因是什么；下文“The wild animals we love are in a constant struggle for survival.(我们所爱的野生动物一直在为生存而奋斗。)”提到了这些野生动物一直在为生存而奋斗；由此可推知，设空处可能是在谈这些大象迁徙的潜在原因。G项“A reasonable possibility is that they probably needed more room and more food to survive.(一个合理的可能性是，它们可能需要更多的空间和更多的食物来生存。)”提到了其中一个合理的可能性，就是它们需要更多的生存空间和食物，恰好与下文的“in a constant struggle for survival”对应。故选G项。
【40题详解】
上文“Maybe we should try to stay away from them.(也许我们应该尽量远离它们。)”提议应尽量远离野生动物；下文“Their lives—red in tooth and claw—are difficult enough without us causing them any more problems than they already have.(它们的生活——残酷无情——已经够艰难的了，不用我们再给它们制造更多的麻烦。)”提到了“我们应该尽量远离野生动物”的原因。由此可推知设空处是在进一步解释为什么需要远离野生动物。B项“It is a way to protect the wild animals, and it’s also our responsibility.(这是保护野生动物的一种方式，也是我们的责任。)”恰好与上下文对应。故选B项。

第二节 读后续写 (满分25分)
67. 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
That day, I was going to skate a clean freestyle program for the first time in a year. I determined to land the axel (前外一周半跳) in competition.
“I can make it!” I thought as I skated to the center ice. When my music sounded, I started my program with a circular step and a bright smile, followed by a beautiful combination spin. Flying camel, sit spin, layback spin. Perfection. The jump! The axel!
I could do it when I practiced off-ice, but I’d only landed it on-ice approximately fourteen times in my entire life. So I was a little nervous. I’d leave it out if I could, but my Olympic dreams depended on it. My coach, Geena, put it early in my program so I could do it while my legs were not tired. Taking a deep breath, “I can succeed!” I thought.
I was on the right back outside edge of my skate blade (冰刀), ready to turn forward and launch into the axel. My nerves were back, working against me. “I can do this!” I thought. I stepped into takeoff and I did… a waltz jump (半周跳). It is a jump I’d been doing since I was pretty young. It is only one-half a rotation (旋转) instead of the one and one-half that I need for the axel.
I glimpsed Coach Geena’s questioning eyebrow as I glided past the door and imagined the disappointed looks on my parents’ faces. “It’s not over,” I reasoned to myself, glancing into the bleachers (露天座位). “I’d just replace the next jump with the axel.”
However, it didn’t work out the way I’d hoped. I fell, and I kept falling. Never one to give up, I replaced every jump in my program with the axel, but I didn’t land one. I spent so much time on the ice that it’s like I was making sure the ice was clean for the next skater. The two minutes, fifteen seconds of my program felt like an age. By the time I was done, my dress was soaked through and I was seven seconds behind my music, so I finished skating to silence.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
As I skated toward the exit, I felt everyone was looking at me with pity.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The performance going on, I rose up from the bleachers, determined to go home but my parents held me up.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
As I skated toward the exit, I felt everyone was looking at me with pity. How I wished the floor would open up and swallow me! Offstage, Coach Geena handed me a towel and I thanked her with a heavy heart. Then I climbed upstairs and seated myself between my parents. Dad placed a comforting hand on my shoulder and Mom gave me a tight squeeze. “Darling, it’s OK.” I nodded, my eyes watering. As I turned my gaze to the ice center, I happened to catch sight of a perfect axel the next skater landed. There came clapping and cheering. My heart grew heavier.
The performance going on, I rose up from the bleachers, determined to go home but my parents held me up. “It’s poor sportsmanship to leave before the results are posted.” Hesitating for a moment, I sat back. Time dragging, I was absent-minded. However, when I saw a skater fall down and then gracefully stand up, I watched the performance with full attention. When the competition ended, I gave my parents a big hug and determined to pursue my Olympic dream no matter how many difficulties I would face.
Another possible version:
As I skated toward the exit, I felt everyone was looking at me with pity. When the next skater glided past me to take her place center ice, I couldn’t help thinking I was a terrible skater. After making an eye contact with Coach Geena, I made my way to my parents and sat between them. My weak smile resulted in their hugs of encouragement. Not having the mood to watch the performance, I sank in thought soon. “What am I doing here? My skating career will end.” The more I thought about it, the sadder I felt. “Maybe I should give up.”
The performance going on, I rose up from the bleachers, determined to go home but my parents held me up. I looked down to see concern and worry in their eyes. Words failed me. Unwilling to make them worry, I sank back into the seat and continued watching the performance. Suddenly, the skater on the ice fell. As she struggled to her feet and went on with her performance, I saw an excellent performer. She failed outside, but not inside. I suddenly realized giving up would leave me in total failure. Ashamed of my stupid decision, I decided to fight against discouragements to realise my skating dream.
